Jimmy Horne held her hand and pulled her up, leading her towards the door.
Camila Ruiz wanted to appear braver, bolder, but the closer they got to the door, the more panicked she felt, afraid of Finn.She had just spoken ill of Finn, and the snake had actually thought of attacking her. Was this snake a spirit snake? Did it understand human speech or judge people's praises and criticisms based on their expressions?
Feeling the slight trembling of the small hand in his palm, Jimmy turned his head and said with an amused tone, "Is Finn that frightening?" He had raised the little creature for many years and never found Finn to be scary. Perhaps it was because Jimmy had raised Finn, they had grown up together, and had developed a bond. That's why Jimmy wasn't scared.
