…so what just happened?
Before anyone could absorb what happened, they were quickly tethered back to the present by the roars and growls that surrounded them.
Fortunately, the guards' instincts were good so they prevented any major accidents despite everyone's distraction and confusion.
The mercenaries and the others cleaned up the beasts, while Ryan immediately appeared next to Gwen, pulling her into his embrace.
"Are you alright?!" he asked, and Gwen gently pushed him away so she could get a better look at him, and he at her.
Gwen touched his face and massaged the wrinkles on his brow. "I am, thanks to the little one," she said as she petted the cat on her shoulder.
The cat might not be able to do anything to enemy powerhouses, but their instincts were unmatched. The moment someone targeted her, the cat immediately alerted her to move out.
"Were they targeting you?"
