Groaning, I grabbed my head as I sat up, feeling like I had some fairy slamming a hammer against my skull.
Something that I forgot to do last night was hydrate myself, and well...
Glancing over at the beautiful sight of an exhausted, painted Leone, I groaned again as I felt the cause of my dehydration rise.
Sighing, I threw my legs off of the bed and stretched, closing my eyes as the world began to spin.
Stumbling over to the bathroom, I fumbled around for the sink and turned it on, leaning down to drink straight from the tap.
With a bellyful of water, I gasped as I stood back up, panting from the receding hangover.
Staring into the mirror, I took in my pale blue skin glistening with sweat and other fluids, while my hair clung to itself and my body.
My amethyst eyes were tired and slightly dull, and I reached up to splash my face with water, the freezing cold splash waking me up completely.
With a flick of my hand I cleaned myself off, my light magic 'purifying' everything off of my body, whilst the golden glow permeated my skin, healing my aches.
Looking myself over, I nodded before exiting the bath, returning to my bed.
Staring down at the unconscious Vampire, I smiled wryly as I reached down and stroked her cheek, tucking a strand of her plated ash gray hair behind her ear.
Reaching up, I briefly brushed my fingers over the area where she had bit me, my thoughts drifting to the words she spoke earlier.
Marking me...
I knew little about what a Vampire's Mark truly was, but from what I had read, it was something similar to Beastkin Marking; it just gave her a sixth sense revolving around me, like where I was or what I was feeling.
It was something that Beastkin and Vampire's did when they truly married someone, just like how the pure Mortal's tradition of a ring worked.
It was a display that you were entwined with another, and it helped create something between the two parties, strengthening the bond between them and amplifying the emotions.
Leone had first marked Kat, and now she had marked me; a Vampire was only meant to have one mark, so...
Smiling lovingly down at her, I chuckled softly as I placed a kiss on her brow, murmuring "I'm so happy that I decided to be greedy, Princess~"
Cleansing her dirtied skin, I chuckled again as she groaned slightly, her hands reaching around for me.
Avoiding her grasp, I pulled the blanket over her, watching on with a smile as she snuggled into the pillow, her face content as she warmed up under the sheets.
Watching over her for a few more moments, I eventually stepped out into the dark living room, wandering over to the pantry and scrounging around for a few seconds, sighing as I realized that my lack of skill in cooking made these late night excursions rather boring.
Kat didn't make extras for later; her meals were surprisingly accurate to the amount needed per person, so we had no leftovers.
Sadly.
Feeling peckish I sighed, grabbing an orange and an apple before filling a cup with water and making my way to the couch.
Peeling the orange, I started picking it apart, enjoying the citrus explosions on my tongue, which redirected my thoughts to Anput.
Seeing the normally cocky, confident, and proud Jackalkin so crestfallen and depressed was rather... jarring, and I could only hope that the moans that had echoed out of her room were because Kat had set her straight.
When we had returned home from our impromptu date, I was surprised when I laid eyes on Anput, her quivering form and almost childlike actions making my heart ache.
She had taken Kat's decision the worst, but that was because she honestly was the one who wanted Kat to be displayed to the public the most.
Anput was so proud, but not only of herself; the Jackalkin was proud of each of us, and she wanted to display each of us to the world, to show that she was so lucky.
She wanted to have Kat in the spotlight even more than I did, as I had grown to, albeit reluctantly, accept the idea that Kat would only ever be on the fringes of our spotlight.
However, Anput desperately wanted to thrust Kat into that light, both because its what she believed was best and because she wanted to show the world the woman she was most proud of.
But, Kat had other ideas, and until I heard from the two women themselves, I don't want to just assume that everything's alright now.
I had dealt with a shaky heart before, and I knew how terrible it could be.
Not only for myself, but for those around me.
I wanted Anput to be sure of her emotions and love, and sure that that love was being reciprocated.
The idea of a meeker, reserved Anput walking around our house was...
An odd thought, and one that I don't know if I would truly be able to stomach; I had fallen in love with the cocky Jackalkin because of her arrogance.
Finishing the orange, I started munching on the apple next, leaning into the couch as I stared into nothing, enjoying the darkness around me.
Letting my mind clear out, I eventually tossed the apple core and orange skin into the trash, downed the glass of water, and crept over towards Anput's room. 𝒇𝘳ℯℯ𝚠𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜ѵ𝑒𝙡.co𝑚
Quietly opening the door, I peered inside to find Anput laying beside Kat, the Jackalkin clinging closely to the curvaceous Dogkin, her face buried between Kat's large breasts.
The two were breathing deeply and evenly, their arms wrapped securely around the other as they embraced.
Leaning against the doorframe, I stared at their sleeping figures, smiling warmly down at them.
Anput was no longer trembling, and Kat had a tired, yet content expression on her sleeping face, suggesting the time they spent together over the night was pleasurable and worthwhile.
As I stared at Kat, my smile turned into a wry one as I realized that the woman's words were starting to make more and more sense; her idea of hiding so that she could support us to the best of her abilities was demonstrated this night.
The Dogkin had a way with words, her actions were meaningful, and she was both accepting and hard on all of us; she didn't let us do as we pleased, instead guiding and taking care of us, much like a mother hen overlooking her chicks.
A hard word here was softened out by a warm smile there, while her sweet whispers could soothe any of us in mere moments.
Her incredible poise inside our home as she cooked, cleaned, and took care of the other miscellaneous chores only added to her charm, and we were all thankful that this beautiful woman had no problems keeping the home in order.
I can only imagine how much more that will mean when times passes by, with Anput and Leone finding professions of their own to pursue.
Having a warm, home cooked meal everyday, a clean room to sleep in, and no worrying about whether or not your clothes are properly cared for is reassuring...
Then there's the side of Kat that we all partake in equal amounts of.
Her seductive, sinful side, the side where she pulls us into her bed and ensnares us with her body, accepting whatever it is that we wish to do to her with open arms.
She has yet to refuse an act with any of us, her openness to try everything and do whatever gets all of us going helping to wash away any stress that had started to pile up during the day.
Especially now, when we have to deal with Jillian and her idiocy; being able to let my mind focus on something besides that bitch of an Elf is more important than I had realized.
Without it, I think I would have gone crazy by now, but with Kat here...
She calmed us down and redirected any of our negativity into something else, and I let out a soft chuckle as I grew to realize just how important the woman was.
How no one else would see her and know that, without her, Anput, Leone and I would be different people; very, very different people.
I would need to make sure she knows just how much I appreciate her eventually...
Though, I think doing so after Jillian is out of the picture would be the most ideal; to not have to worry while I privately shower her with my undivided attention and affection.
Maybe I could even pull that out...
Smirking, I stared at the two puppies that snuggled together, their ears twitching slightly as I shut the door.
Stretching out my broad shoulders again, I sighed as I slipped back into my own room, crawling under the covers and pulling the Vampire into my arms, enjoying her warmth on my skin.
I was more lucky than I had previously realized, and now...
Now I knew what exactly I needed to get stronger to protect; not the individual women, but the harmonious family that we created together.
I wanted to guarantee that nothing in this world would ever step between us and attempt to shatter this harmony, and the first one to do so needed to be killed.

Still feel a little off, felt like getting a more laid back, thought process chapter out, letting everyone see Jahi's mental space as of now.
