Jack arched an eyebrow. “Still fond of those kindergarten insults, eh?”
Chastity shrugged impishly. “What can I say, some are timeless.”
“I’m inclined to disagree.”
“Don’t make me get all cute again.”
“I’m developing a resistance to its effects.”
“Liar!” She exclaimed. “There is no resisting the effects of me at my cutest.”
Jack gave her a humoring look. “We’ll see how things lie when the week is out.”
Chastity rolled her eyes. “Spare me. You’ll be just as vulnerable then as you are now.”
“Well… maybe I won’t be,” Jack retorted.
“Keep dreaming,” Chastity said with a humoring smile.
Jack rolled his eyes and returned to his book. “Keep dreaming indeed,” he muttered and got lost in the Lauritian Abyssal.
