Instead of being dismissed with the wave of one dark paw the king ushered him forward, offering a place on the plush mat beside him. Erys wasn’t used to receiving attention, Chimera was sick but also he had become so in tune with his duties he had almost become a shadow. Always there when needed, but never noticed. As a good servant should be. His King wished for his presence though, and he wouldn’t show the hesitation he felt as he took his place beside Chimera as he was requested.
He was spoken to softly, with the late hour and the more… cozy setting there wasn’t need for his authoritative voice. Erys appreciated the softness. It seemed he would also be the meal’s entertainment, not that he thought Chi was using him for that purpose. He’d never had a master who was so genuinely interested in him. No matter how much he strived to be more shadow than wolf he was more in his element here than he had ever been before. Curse or not he felt like he belonged here. How did he put that into words for his King though?
”Pleasant, my Lord.” He answered honestly, and knowing the king was eating he forced himself to elaborate where he would have normally left it at that. ”I can easily say it has been the best home I’ve ever experienced.” He didn’t count his short time with his foster mother. As long as the curse was put to rest and left him be here on the island the once slave would be content serving the royal family the rest of his life.
