The Truce
Those fucking Drakon boys sneaking around my house fucking my wife and daughters! It has to end!
Edward (AJ) is off somewhere, having the time of his life with his wife, Vorin, up on her airship, the Noctilucent. Honestly, Vorin can’t get enough of her “wild cowboy” husband. The fact that he doesn’t care about her status? Most people would find that annoying, but for her, it just makes him more irresistible. He usually gives her what she wants, but now and then, he reminds her he’s in charge. They can go at it for hours—sometimes they don’t even stop for days. And Vorin? She’s no wallflower. She knows exactly how to get AJ’s attention. Sometimes she’ll just shove her chest right in his face; other times, she’ll “accidentally” drop something in front of him while he’s distracted, then bend over slowly, making sure he gets an eyeful. He’s helpless when she does that. Before long, he’s all over her, doing whatever she asks.
Meanwhile, Claire’s busy keeping Nora entertained back in their bedroom. Whenever AJ’s gone, Nora’s itching for a chance to “hunt” her favorite rival from Neo Dixie and force her to give in. It’s always a bit of a risk, though. In the kitchen, Gina and the ever-nosy Lisa are supposed to be making dinner, but really, they’re just trying to keep everything from blowing up. Trouble’s brewing, and they’re the ones who’ll have to step in and settle things.
It all started with a knock at the door. Vieregg had taken Elias and Eliam out for groceries—and maybe a quiet chat. What did they talk about? No one knows.
“Hey, guys, hi Vieregg,” Gina called as they came in. “Just leave the groceries there. I’ve got it. How was your trip?”
“Oh, it was good,” Elias said, way too nonchalantly. “Actually, kind of enlightening.”
“Vieregg’s riding his high horse again,” Eliam cut in. “Now he doesn’t want us at his place to hang with Embla and Ms. Idun.”
“I just told these two, nicely, that their brand of fun isn’t welcome at my house,” Vieregg said, sounding all proper. “People talk, you know.”
“Translation: He doesn’t want us sleeping with his wife and hot daughter anymore,” Eliam said, not even trying to sugarcoat it.
