A Man Who Pays His Bills on Time is Soon Forgotten

she was getting a bit rounder but it was still managable. Heloise was hardly wobbling and stumbling around, yet she did feel the added weight. no more spars and fighting for her until her children were born. this was her first litter, and she did not know if it was going to injury them so early into her pregnancy. at Acere's call, she'd walk forward to spot Dragon and Tyranis with him. they must have gotten back from the Hjarrandi Market. she had freed one captive, but that was all she managed to do. it had been some time since she had last went to the market; she had left before everyone else had.

her mate looked to be a storm of emotions. she quietly went to his side, pressing her smaller body against his. but Heloise remained quiet. it seemed a serious call if they were there by name. she wondered what had happened. Acere would no doubt tell them in due time, so she kept her silence. her blue eyes were on him, a spark of curiosity and concern deep within.
