The Perfect Thief novel Chapter 67

Chapter 0067 A habit ? Seriously ? I called after him .

Then maybe dont force me to go out to a fancy restaurant with you and your family .

I didnt really have much of a choice in my attire .

He didnt reply , he got back into the backseat of the car , slamming the door shut behind him .

led and marched to my front door .

I reached into my bag to grab my set of keys .

Unlocking the door , I pushed it open to peer into my dark house , sighing I turned back to see that the car was still there ; he never drove away until I was securely in the house .

It was one of the things I appreciated about Gavin Landry ; it made me think that maybe he did care .noveldrama

As soon as I got inside , the car drove off and I let out the breath I hadnt known I was holding .

My entire body trembled , and I held his coat tightly around me , inhaling deeply .

It smelled just like him .

The next day .

What are we going to practice today ? Matt asked as we made our way outside .

We finished doing his homework and I promised him we would go outside for some extra training .

I was thinking we could practice defense , I answered .

I think you need to learn to better protect yourself in case of an emergency .

A rogue attack could happen at any time .

** Our warriors are the best ; they would never let any rogues in our borders , Matt said , his voice filled with pride .

Maybe so , but but you can never be too careful Master Matthew , I teased .

He smirked but he didnt argue .

I showed him some of the new moves that Ive been working on in my own defense classes and he mimicked the moves almost flawlessly .

I have to say , I was pretty impressed with his level of expertise .

Wow , I said as he blocked my attack for what felt like the hundredth time .

You are really good at this .

Defense was one of the things my father taught me , he explained with a shrug .

He also said I needed to be prepared for anything .

Well , hes a wise man , I said , grabbing a water bottle from the ice bucket I set out for our training session .

I handed Matt a water and then grabbed one for myself .

He is , Matt said thoughtfully .

Hes the best when hes around .

I gave him a sympathetic look .

Do you wish he could be around more often ? He stared down at the water bottle , fiddling mindlessly with the cap .
