Wolf of the Emperor

Epilogue

Epilogue

Once they had reached the Emperor’s command ship Seth and the rest of his group stepped out into the hanger bay.  He slowly inhaled the purified and cleaned air and ended up sneezing.  “Blast it I forgot that it takes me a day or two to get used to the bloody air.”  The rest of them sneezed as well.  For the moment Leosafr was remaining on the planet since she didn’t want to separate Lil’ Buddy from Big Daddy.

Kletharl rattled her claws against the battle steel deck and grumbled.  *Forgot no traction either since silly humans frown on claw marks on deck.*  She yawned and let out a growl at Alexi’s symbiote since they hadn’t met and she didn’t know who she was and what level she was.  They would have to sort that out eventually but for now she really wanted a good grooming and some fresh food.

Cleasal stepped between the two and he growled at his mate.  She was pregnant and he wasn’t going to let her do anything that might harm their cubs.  *Not fight now, after cubs delivered.*  He made sure that was broadcast to both Gudag as well as their hosts.

Alexi paused for a moment and then gave Seth and Kletharl a proud look.  “Congratulations to all four of you.  I will have to think of something grand to do for the four of you.  Now I am going to ignore all that formal crap and take you to the executive quarters and order up some food.  Have you showered and provided some clean clothing, and then have you tucked in.”

They looked at each other and Seth grinned.  “For that I would almost be tempted to give you a kiss but I would hate to give you ideas.”  Marthag smacked him which only made him laugh.

“So is that why we only cuddled?  Girl bunnies aren’t your thing?”  Her voice was as smooth and innocuous as possible.  Mendasol simply covered his eyes as Seth groaned.

“Darn you oversized Trix rabbit.  I might just see if Big Daddy is hungry.”  He sighed.  “Alexi I want you to make sure I have a lock on my door please.”  He let a slight grin cross his face when he said that.

Alexi raised an eyebrow.  “Is that to keep her in or out?  I didn’t know you went for furries.”  He had started leading them off the hanger bay deck and into an elevator.  Thankfully it was designed for the heavy armored suits so was able to hold them.

Marthag simply couldn’t resist and curled one paw around an arm and started to draw circles on it with her other paw.  “So was that all you wanted, assured privacy?  You should have told me.”  She even lowered her ears and batted her eyelashes at him.

Seth got a panicked expression on his face and jumped behind the comm. officer and hunched down.  “You will protect me right?  Keep that man teasing wabbit away right?” 

The comm. officer was rather at a loss as to what to do since she had no idea what rank the warblers might be.  Seth was a member of the imperial family and the Emperor was there as well.  When she glanced at him he was simply smirking and didn’t say anything and she had to sigh.  “I am going to make sure there is a very large bottle of the Makers Mark Whiskey with the imperial seal waiting, no make that two.  One for me and one for the rest of you.”

Seth and Marthag traded looks and she almost snickered.  Since Seth was cowering behind the comm. officer Marthag scooted over to the Emperor and repeated the same thing.  “So do you like furry bed bunnies?  I have learned how to cuddle humans and Seth seems to appreciate it.”

His bodyguards were doing their damndest to keep straight faces.  “Would your Highness like to have his Imperial bed made ready?”  One asked with a very straight face, as if this was an everyday occurrence.

Seth smirked at Alexi’s expression and the guard’s question.  “So how does it feel to be found interesting by a furry bed buddy?  She is nice, warm, and soft in all the right places.  I am sure she would love to have you scrub her back down as well.”
