Dan and the Neko's

Chapter 29 - I don't know Tigger, I just don't know

Dan can't mate with his mates

Dan and Mari eventually came out of the room he had settled in. Both were still looking tired and strained but not quite as bad. He kept an arm around her as he limped over to a large couch and settled down, "Mari would you mind getting me something to eat? Never mind, would someone get us food please? We both need to eat to regain our strength."

As he was talking some of the pack came over and settled down around them, Dan reached over and gave each person a light touch. Beyond that he wasn't sure what to do for them. He was going to need to talk to Tigger and the others later. For now, he was simply going to spend time with the pack. When some food was brought over he thanked the people and settled down to eat.

As they were eating Mina walked in with Kevin and settled down near them, "The Admiral contacted me earlier, tomorrow they are going to have some of the males from the planet sent up. My friend's ship is going to do much the same to them as was done to our males. They are going to be scanned by the central scanner, a second scan with a portable scanner, and go from there. She requested that Sampson come over to the other ship and do his thing. It was just a request and she didn't bother trying to order him to come over." That would have gone over like a load of bricks.

Sampson shrugged, "As long as they don't mind a few others coming over as well. The healer for the pack Darius is a member of, would probably like to come with." He flashed a wry grin at Tigger, "And probably a few of the soldiers which feels really odd being followed around by."

Tigger met Sampson's eyes and smiled slightly when Sampson dropped his eyes, "Well the prez rather ordered them to take care of us. I think his thought is it is probably safer to have humans around to keep any excess damage to a minimum. I have a feeling it is along the lines of they will do less damage for the most part."

That received a laugh from many people included the soldiers, "Yes if you wish you can go and you will have an escort. Go talk to the other healers and let me know what they say. Right now, I'm simply going to relax with my mates and enjoy having us all back together." He wrapped his arms around Oreo and gave her a good kiss. It was going to take a long time before all of them recovered. Tomorrow would come soon enough.

That evening when they went to bed Nang claimed Dan, "We are going to bed, we are going to talk, and then you are going to make love to me. So we don't have the bond currently? That doesn't change how I feel about you Danilo Legarith. You are my mate, our mate, and we are not letting you go." She took his hand and led him to a spare room. Earlier she had a comfortable mattress moved in. There weren't any drinks since Dan didn't need that even if his body would process it quickly.

When she tugged on his hand to get him to stand he did and pulled her into his arms. He rested his head on top of hers and simply held her. It felt so damn good to hold her. Last night and earlier had been the three holding him and Mari, "Yes Luna, as you command I will obey." He was still feeling totally off center but he could still make jokes even if they were lame compared to many of his.

Nang hissed at him and nipped his chest, "I will get you for that Dan. Now the pack is going to assume I ordered you into bed!" She stepped back and returned the favor by pointing at a room, "Go, you are restricted to the room until morning. Now be a good boy and obey your Luna!" Just for an added touch she hissed at him.

The pack stared at the two before a muffled snicker could be heard and Dan glowered at her. He huffed and walked into the room she was pointing at. Just to be annoying he closed the door behind him. He didn't lock it but he figured she deserved that. Even as she was coming in he was sitting on the edge of the bed with his shirt off.
