"Your Majesty! Sit, sit. I'll take care of you!" Kitty beamed and patted the velvet seat the manager had specifically gotten for me after Atticus said my name and prison level.

Kai was waiting outside with the other three but already paid the fee for me to get my nails redone as well as a pedicure.

"Kitty?" My stunned eyes stared at her short frame. "How did you score a job here?"

"I applied." Her blue eyes were filled with relief. "After I assisted you, the commander of Level Two stated we could apply for jobs and that a few nail technicians got killed in some silly gang fight so they were looking for some fresh blood."

Her explanation made me frown, but I walked over to sit down. Atticus brushed his hand along my shoulder, his way of telling me he'd be close by but not all up in my personal space.

Another thing I was beginning to love about his presence.

"Have you done this before?" I inquired.

"Definitely!" She reached for my nails and began inspecting the damage of the broken one. "I used to work as a nail technician when I was younger. It wasn't a job I really did for money, but more for the creativity aspect. Did it for about five years."

"Five years," I repeated, my voice as calm as ever but my mind was whirling around that length of dedication she’d committed to doing other's nails.

"Mhm! It was fun. I only worked for extremely wealthy supernaturals with a few exceptions if our salon was busy. Nails are very delicate and have to be treated with care for those that infuse magic into them for defense tactics."

I blankly stared at her, completely fascinated with her sudden seriousness and knowledge.

"Would you be able to fix these and keep whatever is hidden confidential?" My voice was low enough for her ears only.

"Certainly." She looked up to give me a firm nod, her eyes projecting her vow to keep things under wraps. "I've been trained to do exactly that. No need to worry."

She let go of my hands to begin to gather the tools in the drawer, and before she began she whispered, "Thank you, Ms. Butterfly."

"Hmm? For what?"

The tiny smile that formed on her lips was followed with her eyes meeting my intrigued ones.

"My past technician experience wasn't the only thing that got me this position. I was told I had received a reference from a monarch and would be assigned to attend to any of your needs. The acknowledgment of my new role was what helped me get this position, and I've been moved to a single cell, which is normally only granted for those with masters or trainees. It's pretty obvious that I'm a cat shifter." She paused to point to her twitching white cat ears. "We're not deemed valuable or powerful, so the sudden change has completely morphed my previous circumstances. I'm forever grateful for that."

I didn't say anything immediately, but the question left my lips before I could stop it.
