Lust Meets Wrath

Neighborly Visit

Striker was busy the following day making sure he got chores done and making sure Lena got her medicine and had fresh drink. By Lunchtime he was done with chores save for feeding at night. He went fixing soup and grilled cheese for them both.

There was a knock at the door and Striker called. "Come in, Ah'm in the kitchen!"

Ray grinned. "Well lookit you skinny spitfuck... cooking fer yer lady." He chuckled some and was joined by another hound. Younger and similar to him. "This is my boy Kygo, we heard what happened yesterday. Ya'll okay?" 

Kygo was mostly black with a white belly, muzzle and back paws. "Hard to believe a Hellhound would do such a thing."

Striker smiled some putting the platters together. "Yeah we're okay. Aside from me getting my jaw jacked. Lena actually shot that crazy bitch."

"Really? Damn what a little firecracker ya got." Ray chuckled. 

Kygo grinned some. "Sounds like a feiry little imp."

"She is, even sick she can be feisty." He said and took a lap table into her so she could eat in peace. He came back out and sighed. "She's resilient and strong."

They both smiled some. "Ya love her a lot." They chuckled.

"Yeah." He nodded.

"Would it be okay if we visited her?" Kygo asked.

"If you really wanna." Striker said and went to the room. Checking on her, she was done eating. "Hun... Ray and his son Kygo wanna see ya. Is that okay?"

Lena nodded and coughed a little. "Yeah but they should keep their distance."

Kygo stepped in and smiled. "Hey, so yer the gal what shot at that bear? That's really badass." He grinned. 

Ray chuckled some and handed something to Striker. "Have her drink a little of this local honey in some tea. It'll help."

Lena smiled some. "Thanks you guys." She smiled some and cuddled into her blankets. 

Striker nodded. "Thanks Ray, Ah'll make sure she gets some."

Kygo moved over. "Ah heard yer with pup too."

Ray chuckled. "With child, imps don't have pups son."

"Okay well..." he smiled and set a box on the bed then backed up.

Striker passed her the box and she blinked opening it. Revealing a little super soft deep blue blanket. 

"That was one of my first blankets as a pup... thought yer little one could use it. It's soft and very warm." Kygo smiled. 

"Thank you..." she smiled and Striker nodded.

Ray blinked some. That was one of the first blankets ever that got his son to sleep. Wow.

"Ah'll let ya sleep." Kygo said and Ray nodded the pair heading out. "Oh... Tony down the road is selling a few mares. Might wanna think about taking yer lady and Bombproof to pick one out." Ray smiled. 

Striker nodded some. "We'll check it out later."

Lena curled up and went back to sleep.

Striker shut the door quietly and sighed softly. Kygo and Ray said their goodbyes and offered their services should Kacey pop up again. Striker graciously accepted the offer of help.

A couple days later Lena was having tea in the kitchen, she was feeling better. Striker was having tea as well as a prevention against getting sick which was working so far. Lena had a lingering cough but was on the mend and Striker smiled.

"So Ray said Tony down the road has a few mares for sale. Ya wanna check it out later pumpkin?"

Lena blinked. "You mean... I get my own horse?"

"That's right darling." He nodded sipping on tea. "We can maybe stop and see Jackson after and get some fresh juice from his orchard. If yer up for it."

Lena smiled. "Yessssss!"

Striker smiled some and they finished their tea. "We'll go in couple more days when you are all better." He kissed her cheek.

"Awww okay." She pouted.
