"Thorne will come too?" Evangeline blinked, a thoughtful look on her face.
A flicker of displeasure crossed Elias Moretti's Beast Eyes at her abrupt change in attitude.
His expression remained impassive as he said calmly, "Father is the leader of the Grymdale Tribe. He won't have it easy in the Monitor Tribe's territory. For Thorne, the thing he wants most is to earn Father's approval. Of course he'll come."
Evangeline stared at Gable for a moment. Her long whip flicked lightly before coiling obediently back into her palm.
Then, she extended her hand toward Gable. "Fine. I can help, but give me the tail scales first."
Gable's brow furrowed deeply. He said in a low voice, "If I give them to you, who knows if you'll still help?"
Evangeline narrowed her eyes, her fingertips caressing the long whip. 'This old man is really rubbing me the wrong way. What should I do about it?'
Just then, Elias Moretti suddenly spoke up, "Gable! Give them to her!"
