Liana smiled slyly, her eyes glinting with mischief as she glanced over her shoulder at the chaos behind them.
Gloria chuckled softly beside her. "Ara~ princess~ that's what you get if you didn't name your own Pekko~" she said, watching Felicia bounce wildly on the uncooperative bird.
Felicia gritted her teeth, her hair whipping in all directions. "You—! This is just… temporary!"
Liana gave a light hum of amusement. "A Pekko without a name is the same as a Pekko without a master. And in Armand, all of young master's wife candidates are expected to have one of their own."
She looked back again with a smug grin. "Looks like you've already lost to your own little sister… Princess MiMi."
Felicia's eyes twitched. "Tch—!"
Her Pekko, still unnamed and still questioning its entire purpose in life, swerved sharply as if protesting the insult.
"Cuquawked!!"
"Stop flapping and run straight!"
