It Pays to Be Popular (Loot Sisters #25)

Scorched and bloodied, Erd twists his head sideways and flashes his brightest smile. “Ladies! We can work this out, yes?” He grunts as Rach’s foot stomps down on his back.

Felicia laughs nervously, grabbing Rach’s muscular sword arm. “Let’s not dismember him just yet.”

“Fine,” Rach grunts. Luckily for Erd, she’s evolved past her bloodlust. 

Distracted, I nod, still looking for the vanished nun. “He might be worth something to the Adventurers’ Guild.”

“Yes!” Felicia. “I doubt we’re the only team he’s screwed over.”

“Agreed.” Vera scowls at her dirtied robes. “It’s high time we head back to Skathagrat.”
