While we were walking down the corridor, General Ezra turned around and started walking backward as he spoke. "Let me guess? Sophia." "Yes." "I have never seen those pups so well-behaved," the General said, munching on his brownie. "All it took was one damn cookie," Jake said, boasting. "Clever. Very clever," General Ezra said with a smirk. The General turned about and continued walking. We made our way into the throne room. Tundra was nursing her pup on the floor before the throne chair.
