Cassiopeia huffed as she was promptly plopped onto Nic's lap. She stared at him, her face blank, but she couldn't maintain it. She loved this man too much. Her face split into a happy smile and she shook her head, rolling her eyes.

”You're insufferable. Was he always like this?” Cassi asked Ren while she pulled her pizza box closer.

”They will keep. We have plenty to keep us occupied until then,” Caden said. He finished off his pastry, and sipped his coffee while he watched Nero try and pace themselves with their dessert.

”Do you want me to order you another to take home?”

Avery's eyes danced back and forth from watching Kimiko eat her strawberries, and roaming her body. She was equally stunning and powerful. Avery could easily see the speed and agility her body had from running and hunting, as well as shifting into her fox. He felt shame briefly for ever doubting her ability to look after herself. She would train with Cassi and get stronger. Avery just had to trust her.

When she leaned down, Avery moved one of his hands to rest over hers to keep her from pulling her hand back. He looked into her eyes as she sat back up from kissing his head and smiled.

”And what if I say I desire you?”

Cassiopeia felt more flushed after Ren patted her cheek. It was such an endearing gesture that tugged on her heart and warmed her soul. Still, Nic was refusing to put her down.

"So, am I eating in your lap or what? Cause I'm about to pull out some self-defense moves," Cassi politely informed Nic.

"Perhaps a little, but I am sure someone would be interested in seeing historical world maps if you want to get them appraised," Caden said. He took another bite from his pastry before he watched Nero. He smiled at the joy on their face, and squeezed their leg.

Avery paused in running his hands up Kimiko's back, ready to take her robe off but had to stop. "Did you just call me a pinecone? What possessed you to call me that?" he asked, barely holding back a laugh. His hands tightened on Kimiko's back while he laughed.

It took Avery some time to regain his composure before he could continue his task in removing Kimiko's robe. He slipped it off her shoulders, and let the robe fall to pool around her.

"Alright, you're spoiling me. What are you going to do now, then?"

It was then when Cassiopeia hear Ren's surprised voice that she was glad she had a longer jacket on, and that Nic's arm was covering her from flashing her father-in-law. Still, when Nic turned around, Cassi's face was a deep red with embarrassment.

"We got you something and bruschetta." She offered the bag to him before hiding her face once more. Wayland was absolutely no help. Instead the little beast jumped onto the table, and reached out a paw to Nic, to make it easier for Nic to pick them up.

"If only it worked like that," he said, the tone of his voice low with desire. Caden traced his finger across their throat, watching it bob before he took his finger away. A short moment later, the dessert arrived.

"Mmm, I think I should like to take you to Paris first, perhaps. Or maybe we can tour the UK before we move on to somewhere warmer," Caden said, his voice back to normal, and he thanked the server before taking a bite of his pastry.

Avery laughed, and rested his hands on Kimiko's hips. He held her in place while he rolled over and looked up at her from his back.

"You love me and my perverted mind because its just thoughts about you," he stated. Avery ran his hands up Kimiko's sides, the fabric of her outfit catching along his hands. "So, you've given me a massage. Does that mean I have to pay you back now for your services?"

The simple kiss was enough to leave Cassi craving more. She sighed when the elevator doors opened, signalling that their little game was over. She smiled at Nic, and moved to follow him out of the elevator when her perspective on the world changed.

Cassi had no time to react to Nic picking her up and tossing her over her shoulder like a sack of flour. Cassi squealed in alarm once she was there and wiggled on his shoulder.

”Nicholas! This is hardly appropriate,” she declared. She stared at the floor, and spoke again when she recognized Nic's flooring.

”Wayland! Tell your father to unhand me,” she demanded, knowing the cat was somewhere and would surely come to her rescue.

Caden unconsciously tracked Nero's movements as they tilted their head back. It wasn't something that normally spoke to Caden, and he was certain Nero didn't intend for it to come across as a move of submission, but it aroused Caden's dragon and the creature purred happily.

Normally, for a werewolf or even a vampire, exposure of the neck was a submission to the more dominant creature. For Caden, in this moment, it was highly arousing.

Caden watched Nero's throat stretch and twist while they spoke to him, and unconsciously Caden ran the tip of his finger down the unprotected side of their throat.

”As do I, mein kleiner Kobold, as do I.”

Avery grinned, joy sparking in his eyes. He let his hand fall from her leg after she smacked it away.

”You're no fun,” he teased her. Avery's eyes shifted to take in Kimiko's body from this new angle. ”You know, I think I like you on top.” He brought his hand back and fiddled with Kimiko's open robe.

Antoinette didn't have to explain much past her initial comment about Mary. Jean and Scott filled everyone in nicely, plus it did seem Klara understood what Annie was talking about as she had tracked Mary to New Orleans. With a proper direction, Antoinette was ready to go back to her room and grab her go bag. She'd probably leave Arnold behind this time for one of the other students to look after. Going to space had been a bit much for them both. However, Max reacted far more quickly than any of them. He opened up a portal, and quickly jumped through, calling for people.

Antoinette took a few steps forward, wiggling her nose as she peered through the portal. She could see a lovely home, plus some concerned people staring at the portal. She opened her mouth to say something, but then several people on the other side of the portal started talking.

”Uh, Max, we should grab some supplies before we rush in,” she said.

Cassi laughed and scrunched up Nic's t-shirt in her hand. ”I thought I already got that. Girlfriend privileges and all,” she said. Cassi hooked her ankle around the back of Nic's leg after his hand came to rest on her hip. While she pulled him in closer, Cassi wondered if they could hide in his room under the pretence of working on the garden boxes, so she could finally thank him for spending the night at her place a few nights ago.

”I would be honoured to take you. The culture is wonderful as well. I think you'll find you enjoy more than just the food.” Morocco was a vibrant place with an equally vibrant culture from the food to the music and the stories. Plus, they would be treated well and looked after.

Avery's hand paused on Kimiko's leg when he felt her twitch from his touch. She was so ticklish. Avery smirked and continued to brush his thumb along her thigh. He noticed that the pressure of his massage had lightened as well. Avery didn't mind. She had worked hard on his upper back, and he could admit he was thinking about other things she could be doing with her hands.

”Your stretches? And what is it that you do that could help me?” Avery asked. He rolled his body slightly so he could see Kimiko without throwing her off him. Because of the motion, he was now able to run his full hand down her upper leg rather than just his thumb.

A pleasant shiver slid down Cassiopeia's spine when Nic towered over her. She looked up at him through her lashes and shrugged. She dropped her eyes back to where she had her finger hooked in his jacket.

”I guess I could. Although, how will you thank me for protecting you? My rate is rather expensive,” she said.

As she spoke, Cassi pulled down the zipper of Nic's jacket. She slid her hand up his chest, looking up at Nic when she finished speaking.

Caden started in on his meal first before he helped Nero pick and choose what to start with and what to eat after. The wine Caden had chosen paired well with the meal and created an overall enjoyable dining experience. A sense of pride and joy filled Caden from being able to share such an experience with Nero.

Once they were finished and their plates were taken, Caden ordered desserts for the pair of them and a coffee for himself. He settled back in his seat, draping his arm back over Nero's chair, and a hand on their leg.

”Mmm and you have amazing hands for someone who isn't a professional massage therapist,” Avery said, halfway between a mumble and a groan. He shifted his head the other direction when she started to work more diligently on his hips.

”Yes. I need to stretch more and do those hip openers. Probably should see a professional massage therapist as well, but this is much more enjoyable.” Avery shifted his arm back, and found Kimiko's leg to rest his hand on. He rubbed his thumb along her skin subconsciously while she worked.

A noise of surprise escaped from Cassi when Nic's hand connected with her ass. It was a light hit but she hadn't been expecting it.

Once she stepped in the elevator, she leaned against the wall, but Nic was distracted on his phone. Cassi transferred the bag of food to one hand and hooked her finger in his jacket before tugging Nic forward.

”Then it's a good thing you're training to be a part of this world, aren't you?”

”Then that you shall have.” Caden kissed Nero softly, amused by their excitement and antics. He pulled back before the server arrived and set down their main dishes.

The spices on these plates were even stronger than the first, and it filled the space around them. That was the only downside to food like this, the spice was so powerful that it often obscured Caden's sense of smell, but he still had his eyes and ears should he detect a problem.

Even before Kiki started actually massaging him, the act of just rubbing the oil into his back at Avery sighing deeply. It was the simple motions and touch of her hand that he wanted. She started to dig around, and Avery guided her a bit until she reached some of his usual spots that tension and stress were held in. There was oddly more tension around his rib cage and down into his hips. Clearly he was locked in place, unable to shift or turn. His tell in fighting was a weight transfer that stemmed from his hips.

Avery groaned as muscles released and let go under Kimiko's persistent work.
