She then turned to look at Jules before saying to her, "Would you like to come with me? I saw some small desserts that I would like to try." Then, without giving the woman a chance to speak any further, Inez walked away.
Jules glanced at her and then at her so-called friends before turning around on her heels and following Inez. Behind her, she could hear those women calling Inez a lot of names. Names that sounded so rude that even Jules felt her blood boil, even when she was not the one who was getting cursed at.
"Ignore them," said Inez. As a shifter, her hearing was better than humans. Thus, even though those women were whispering, she could hear them with ease. "Just ignore them," she added with as much dignity as she could muster.
