Just finished helping my mother-in-law move into her new house. So I'm going to keep this short.
In Wilde's Army, Perth and Kate are going to try to find all the soldiers and children who were taken from Watchers Hall. He thinks it will be a wise idea to bring a chicken for food, but the bird would be too noisy, so he breaks its neck . . . .
Enjoy!
~Mirain seems more nervous than the others, stomping and swishing her tail.
"What is it, girl?" I ask, approaching her with my hand held out, palm up.
"It is me. Animals have never liked me very much," Perth says, still standing in the storage area, backed against the hay bales.
I eye the dead chicken in his murderous hands. "I cannot imagine why not."~
Lovely. :-)
Happy Sunday everyone.
