A tropos glared at him, this intense leer of pale eyes that the red devil would have found arousing if he weren’t already coupling with the little she-demon’s sister. Maybe Requiem was just attracted to dangerous women who might do him harm. Either way, Atropos’ ire at him was highly amusing to the Amarix assassin and had him grinning and chuckling, dead proud of himself. Despite her intensity, Requiem had spent enough of his life around her to not feel the slightest bit of intimidation. Perhaps that was foolhardy or dangerously cocksure on his part, but that was Requiem’s personality in a nutshell. Atropos made a dramatic show of gagging at his crude humor and that just tickled the dire brute even more, snickering at his future sister-in-law’s revulsion. Ah, he knew she loved him deep down though. He had lost track of how many wolves he had killed under her request—well, more like orders—when it suited her.
T he petite fae ordered him to hold the posts still for her while she lashed them together and the towering brute did as he was told, keeping the metal posts held as she directed him until they were joined. The two wolves moved and maneuvered around one another while they worked, Requiem positioning and holding the posts for the frame while Atropos moved about lashing them together with rope at their connecting points. At some point, Req took note of Atropos bracing herself against the chilled wind that whipped about the deck of the ship. Although not one to typically care about the comfort of others, Requiem did move to position himself between the breeze and his pack mate, bracing against the wind and blocking it from blowing on her too much. Call it a nice gesture, but Req would never admit to being considerate.
A tropos explained the next steps of their process to him and Requiem replied with a grunt and a nod. At her guidance, he shifted and moved the metal frame about, using little more than a few flexes and ripples of well developed muscles from his lifetime of carnage. "You just tell me where you want them and what way to set them up, I’ll handle the rest." A pause as Req looked over the frame and considered what Atropos had said. "We’re covering the whole thing in tarp? How is sunlight going to get to the plants?" The tarp would solve the problem of warmth in the unforgiving northern tundra, but the plants would need direct sunlight to photosynthesize too.
