Knor was grinning when Zhin’s knot reduced, and he scooped her up and carried her to the second floor.

“I think our bedroom will be an excellent starting place for the second floor,” Knur murmured.

She sighed. “But what about the first floor?”

He chuckled. “Let’s start things in the bedroom and work from there.”

“I thought we started things on the main floor.” She chuckled and leaned her head against his shoulder.

“This isn’t your heat. We don’t need to keep at you until we are exhausted. You have things to do tomorrow, and walking normally is one of them,” Knur said softly.

Zhin added behind her, “We have bonded, now we are going to cuddle as our minds settle into the links.”

Knur carried her to the bedroom and then the bathroom. His hooves clicked on the tile.

“Don’t you slip with those?” She looked down at the hard feet.

“No.” Knur sighed as he got the water running and started the spray while holding her away from the coursing water.

Zhin walked in with an armload of shampoos, conditioners, scrubs, puffs, and body wash. The shower was populated in no time.

Being bathed as an adult was a distinctly strange feeling. She ended up being slippery, pinned between the two while they either rinsed or aroused her. Both were actually happening.

“Isn’t it a problem to wash out the blood from the braids?”

Zhin chuckled. “No, the link is forged. We know the other members of our link, and we are closed. No others are invited to join.”

“So, you two aren’t going to die?”

“No, Pandora, and you aren’t either.” Knur growled.

She looked up at him. “Are you going to continue brooding in strip clubs?”

He smiled. “No. I can confidently say that the brooding is over.”

Zhin chuckled. “And I have all kinds of energy left over now that I am not keeping his puppet animated. That was exhausting.”

“Yeah, I would have given you different advice on costuming. That gal needed support.”

Knur cupped her breasts. “Yes, you do.”

She snorted. “I am an adult, so I made sure I look like one.”

Zhin nipped the back of her neck. “Thank you.”

Knur asked, “Did you want to meet with your ex-team members?”

“Only if they want to meet me. I am guessing that my abduction was tense at the least. I do remember that I was a helluva acrobat before I was snagged.”

Zhin murmured, “You were very brave and very ferocious. While we were being held back and stabbed, you clawed your tormentor until he tried to shake you loose, and then, you took him with you.”

Knur murmured, “We tried to get to you, but they wanted to watch us while you died. Twelve of the bastards held us back in cages lined with knives.”

She shuddered. “Oh. I didn’t know.”

Zhin continued to massage her back. “You had other things on your mind.”

“I was really glad my manicure survived until that point. It came in handy.” She could feel the waves of trauma moving through all three of them, and she sighed. “Let’s get dry and then cuddle. I think we deserve it.”
