"Uh... Gamma Zane." I remarked, plastering a smile as Kaelos’ uncle walked toward us.
Just like Kaelos, he has piercing silver eyes and a tall, muscular build. But what made him stand out more was the handsome features that made him seem like a ’silver fox.’
Everything from the calm but predatory aura he had to his black suit and silver grey hair and the elegance he walked with screamed royalty and power.
"Good evening, Gamma." The guards behind me and Caroline bowed before the Gamma, but he didn’t pay them any heed and placed all his attention on Caroline and me.
Caroline gulped, subconsciously clenching my arm when the Gamma finally got in front of us.
"G– Good evening, Gamma." She greeted with a shaky voice, bowing her head. With her head still lowered, she continued. "M– Ma’am Odessa was only trying to ask the guards some questions on–"
"I didn’t realize the witch was mute." Gamma Zane suddenly muttered, cutting Caroline short as he scrutinized me closely.
I clicked my tongue, realizing the problem here.
This guy is an asshole...
I guess it runs in the family.
"No, I’m not mute, Gamma. I speak quite fluently, actually." I blurted, folding my arms in front of my chest and glancing at Caroline.
