“Well, that’s… good?”
“Indeed, unless,” Sthuza said, then paused as her eyes flashed with amusement. “You wish to tend to her recovery personally, Master?”
He shook his head, black hair whipping about.
“Packmaster adding green chew toy to Pack?” Cindra asked innocently.
Sthuza giggled, and Reyna snickered from her side of the room.
After fixing his smug Prime with a harsh glare, he shifted his eyes to the hellhound, and his jaw dropped.
Cindra had the biggest shit-eating grin he’d ever seen.
Unable to think, he stared mutely at his second bonded until one arm began to respond. Frowning, he pointed a shaky hand at Cindra’s smug face.
Finally, she started laughing, and he couldn’t restrain his own chuckle.
“Did you put her up to that?” he asked, shooting a glance at the smirking gorgon.
Her grin widened, but she shook her head. Not entirely trusting her response, he glanced up at her writhing head-snakes and got the impression that she was telling the truth.
“Well, here’s to hoping at least Reyna’s not interested in being a jester,” he grumbled.
When they’d settled down, his body was sore, but his spirit felt refreshed from spending time with his bonded. With his new family, and they laid down on the combined bedrolls.
“You’re sure we don’t need a watch?” he asked again.
“Yes, Master, and no, I will not explain it tonight. You must trust me.”
“Fine. I trust you; it’s just kind of hard to forget that we’ve been attacked here in the Core Room twice already.”
“Three times actually,” Meri chipped in from where she sat on a pillow near his head. “Don’t forget the time you came down here with your slutty girlfriend and stole my Domain Crystal!”
“She wasn’t my girlfriend,” he snapped back, grumbling to himself as his bonded chortled.
“Really need to rethink the whole ‘Dungeon Master’ title if everyone’s going to constantly tease me.”
“Shh, sleep, Master. You need to relax and sleep. We are all safe now, and you have bested three of your enemies. Soon we will track down the last and begin restoring the dungeon,” Sthuza said. Her soft hand stroked his cheek as he closed his eyes.
“Yeah, you’re right,” Gabriel murmured.
‘We have just begun, Dungeon Master. Don’t grow used to your little pets. They are not worthy of our greatness. You must replace your pathetic Prime. Soon.’
