The Beast And The Blessed
Chapter 148
Forty-One: Joselin
Joselin's P.O.V.
Cyrus was like a puppy. For a spell caster, the first of his kind, he was very immature. I was surprised he lasted this long, but at least he had been smart enough to ask for help.
"But really, what's his deal?” He chimed for the fourth time this morning." Does he ever use the mind link, or is he just quiet all the time? I know he had his tongue. I saw it during dinner. Is he a mute? Doesn't that get tiresome, always having to guess what he wants or thinks?”
My eyes rolled to the back of my head. I had found him babbling away with Blanche in the courtyard this morning. The two of them looked thick as thieves, facing each other under one of the trees with their bent knees pressed together as they laughed and spoke a mile a minute with each other.
She seemed to have rubbed off on him because he hadn't shut up since I ordered him to come with me. It was unfortunate for me, but at least he was in good spirits.
"Did he rub off on you? Are you not talking now either?" Cyrus laughed, his hand going up to his unruly blonde hair before sliding it down over his face. It amused me that he was thinking the same thing about Tobias and me as I was thinking about him and Blanche.
Maybe the two of them would be good together... or perhaps they would drive me insane.
"You're a child," I muttered, making him laugh harder. I had too much on my mind to come up with a better comeback, but he didn't care. He was amusing himself. It was fine by me as long as he didn’t expect me to respond to his millions of questions and sarcastic quips.
"I'm thirty-two. That's hardly a child."
That made me pause, my feet planted firmly as I spun to face him. Cyrus stumbled before turning to me with raised eyebrows. Small wrinkles were in the corners, but his bright, cheerful yellow eyes and boyish grin made me lean toward his early twenties.
"Thirty-two, and you're still this immature?" My eyes raked over him. He looked slightly healthier, but not by much, now that he was eating more and no longer living in the wild. Once he filled back out, he would probably look more his age.
"I was mature enough to come to you for help.” He quipped back with his goofy crooked smile. "I'm the first of my kind, not some all-powerful being.
I know when I am outmatched and when to put my pride aside. I don't want to be the last of my kind, and if that means living in the castle or the city, I will."
