Chapter 56: Kitsunes!
Brittany stared at Naomi with a flabbergasted look on her face.
"He rejected me," Naomi whispered with hurt in her eyes as she rubbed her shoulder with one hand. "I’d reject me if I were him so I don’t really blame him."
Brittany suddenly grabbed her shoulders and Naomi stiffened in her grasp.
"I don’t want you to ever say that again. If he can’t see your worth then he’s just as blind as any one else who sees you as nothing more than a mere...enemy...fox whatever!"
Tears formed at the edge of her eyes, threatening to spill down and ruin her eye-do as she whispered in a trembling voice.
"... I’m a Kitsune Brittany...my kind and your kind..."
"You are a Kitsune...Yes. But look at me Naomi, look at everyone here. Do you have the urge to hurt us? To burn us into ashes? Do you feel bloodlust just looking at our happy faces? For more than a decade you’ve lived amongst us, do you ever..."
Naomi quickly shook her head with a confused look in her eyes.
"Why would you even say that Brittany? I’ve loved Dark Risers’s pack and everyone in it as long as I can remember. I’ve taken the Packhouse as my own home. I can never think of something as mortifying as that."
"Then why do you think that you’re not good enough for Daniel!!!"
Naomi fell speechless at her words. She slowly looked down.
