It was starting to get late as the pair returned from their 'mingling session' at the city guild much to Marihea's protest. However, money was money at the end of the day and they needed a reliable network for tracking down Felix's sister Ashley who they had recently found out had been in the city. Felix had been acting very strangely since they got home to the flat they'd rent for out for a few weeks and had been particularly pushy about getting home as soon as possible.

Marihea was usually a patient individual but could tell very quickly when someone was acting out of character, she had her guard up, she was waiting for Felix to act as she had seen how cruel they could be.

Relax a bit and put the claws and the tail away!" flailed Felix as he was bound by Marihea's tail. She traced a claw over his neck gently, "I'm all ears Felix" she replied giving him a terrifying smile.

"U-uh...it's kinda for you Marihea..."replied Felix avoiding her gaze. "Uh huh nice try. I'll go again what is this?" continued Marihea narrowing her eyes, she wasn't buying Felix's story.

"For goodness sake just open the damn gift...Marihea" replied Felix rolling his eyes as blood began to rush to his cheeks showing his embarrassment. Marihea slightly taken back at the response, released him from her tails grip before sitting down on a nearby chair. 'Sigh' "There better not be anything weird in here or I swear Felix you're going to get it!" replied Marihea glancing up at him as she began to carefully undo the ribbon....
