“Definitely no dragons Ito the restaurants No other es that I could smell, either”

Tori stopped in theand frowned at the dragon “Are you saying I smell?”

Tori’s heart fluttered a little, and his gaze darted over to Baldeas nodding How could he possibly not know this about hions Was that like catnip to a feline?
