"Cat's Grace!"
Jade activated the skill the moment she spoke.
The Twin-Winged Water Demon Cat, which had just bounded toward her, shimmered with dark-blue light before shrinking down to the size of an ordinary housecat. Jade bent down and scooped it into her arms in one smooth motion, cradling it comfortably against her chest. The little demon cat immediately let out a satisfied purr, curling up as if it had found the most comfortable place in the world.
Marcus watched the tiny creature nuzzle happily against Jade, then his gaze drifted to her flawless, jade-white face. She looked breathtaking without needing a trace of makeup, and with the adorable cat nestled in her arms, the two of them looked like they belonged in the same picture. It was almost unfair how perfect they looked together.
