Contrary opinions

Said the coyote to him , panting with exhaustion . Appealing to Carmina's good judgment .

"You know I'm stubborn , and I'm a sore loser ."

"I know , I know that part of you . But I also know the intelligent , rational part , and you know I'm willing to fight to the end ."

The coyote had immobilized Carmina holding her tightly by the hair , while she listened to his words , I did not know if she was willing to surrender or if she would be able to continue the battle , but a delicate movement of her eyes confirmed it to me . When the time became dense and all our forces came to a standstill .

"I told you, I am capable of many things that you are yet to know about me."

He murmured using the tense of time against us and getting up from the ground where he was on his knees .

"Not so fast , you forget that I can still move with difficulty . You will not pass over me "

I told him , touching his arm tightly , surrounded by the protective shield that enveloped me . While trying to withstand the density of time she had implemented .

"Young Christian once again trying to stop me " The irony of his smile was macabre .

"You're wrong , I'm not trying to stop you " I replied frowning , as the gestures on his face changed from confident to confused .

"I want to insist on the deal I had proposed to you before , let's make a truce and fight alongside us and not against us ."

I firmly held his arm and he looked at me in a serious but determined manner for a moment without saying any words .

Suddenly I was knocked down and fell to the ground with a thud , although the invisible shield around me still protected me , I turned to see the threat I had yet to face and the eyes of the half-dragon wolf took me by surprise .

"I am invincible and everyone knows that, however, perhaps we can strike a deal dear friend Chris. Decades of friendship with coyote can't fall apart over a simple disagreement on a subject as worn out as family is "

He muttered sarcastically, approaching the coyote who was still paralyzed on air, unable to move a muscle.

"I'm sure the ties to the Hall family are unbreakable. So I'd like to be part of this thing they call a team . They have proven that they are a good pile of competitors , they have earned my respect . Besides this mansion needs a more sophisticated and agile hand ."

Immediately Carmina tore down the attention that was preventing Grandpa , Coyote and Sasha from using their powers and the time between us was back to the same . The wolf stopped breathing on the back of my neck and moved away from my side to stand on his master's side .

"Then do you accept my proposal to accept me as one more of your family ?"

Carmina asked , looking at us in an expectant manner with her bright dark colored eyes .

"Are you serious , to be part of our family , as a kind of sister ?"

Coyote asked with surprise , while Grandpa and Sasha looked at each other dumbfounded .

"Sort of like a companion , considering I'm the one who handles her powers the best ."

Carmina replied with haughtiness in her eyes .

"I can understand your proposal young lady , but due to recent events where you have attacked us , I think asking us to trust you is a bit premature "

Grandfather commented , with determination .

"I apologize for my effusive responses and impulsive actions . I just wanted to understand how to work as a team , since you have always worked alone . And you gathered here understanding each other have given me a great lesson ."

"We have done what ?"

I asked shocked , opening my eyes wide without bothering to disguise .

"Just as you hear it Chris , really your family team has left me a good taste in my mouth and that's why I want to form an alliance with you , likewise I know that you are going to need me in the battle you have planned against Araticus "

Hearing Carmina's words everyone turned to look at me reproachfully.

"I'm sorry, this woman wanted to rip my head off, I had to tell her everything I knew."

I excused myself thinking I had some justification , but I knew my slack mouth , and my lack of prudence would be missing me a costly bill higher and higher .

"You must learn to keep that mouth shut , such seems that your gift is to be a hopeless chatterbox" Espeto the coyote with a look full of anger towards me .

"Christian is not to blame , I just looked at the need they had for a major ally and proposed the idea to me . I think out of all of you the best strategist after all "

Carmina said, defending my position to everyone .

"Well since this young lady has gifts that can be of great use to us I think we can give her a chance , that is if you are willing to follow the rules we have as a team" .

Grandfather's voice and his gestures were firm . He acted like the central head of the Hall family and boy was he .

"What rules are we talking about exactly ?"

"Rules that I don't think you're willing to abide by " Replied the coyote wryly .

"Never underestimate a magical creature , because you might be surprised "

Arching an eyebrow Carmina confirms her confident stance towards the coyote .

"The first thing will be to iron out the discrepancies between you two , the second would be to couple you to a fixed diet that does not include human blood , and the third will be to recognize and accept that I am the head of this family , therefore all decisions first go through me to then be executed "

Affirmed the grandfather taking the place at the head of the dining meza , somewhat damaged by the previous fight .

"We can not be sure that he will abide by the rules father , no one is . He any moment could hurt us and I would not tolerate losing any of you at her hands . I don't trust her whatever she says ."

Said annoyingly the coyote , glaring at Carmina .

"I think you still don't get my point . All of us in this room are killers , I killed many people before I met you , and even after I met all of you . And I'm sure all of you upon being converted did too , so don't come with a cheap righteous man speech because it doesn't fit you ."

Frowning , the coyote remained mute and did not comment further on the matter .

" I would like to know if this is not a deadly game in vain . A Russian roulette that will revolve around you while we all surround you and you decide to intimidatingly subdue us ."

Sasha asked aloud , looking directly into Carmina's eyes .

" Not only could they be in the middle of the roulette waiting to be stabbed , if not it is not only up to me to hold those knives against them , I mean seeing only me as an enemy will not help them , I think they should see the advantages they have by being on my side and not against me "
