“She is part of us,” Christof said stroking a hand down my side and looking at his Brothers. “You are part of us also,” he directedto me. “You are not ugly to us. This is more family, we are Lucky men.”
The little girl inside me pressed against the place Christof had been touching. Noticing it, he stroked her with loving fingers forseveral moments. His thoughts continued on the same lines as he touched me. Inside of me was something amazing.
Damien and the rest murmured agreement. My stomach and its contents were something we all were glad for. Hannah waswonderful and more family was welcome.
“| would Like to see my feet, though,” | said sipping the frothy drink and wiggling my toes.ninjanovel.com

Two families started to fight Damien over his slave’s behavior, but were rapidly subdued. The other men looked at us with amixture of open curiosity or animosity. | couldn’t count which opinion seemed to be winning and no one else cared.
“Let them think what they want,” Bane shrugged, “makes no difference.”
We made our way out of the dining hall and into the near empty caves. The sun was still up, so we’d get glimpses of Lateafternoon Light here and there. It cast the interior of the caverns in an almost warming glow.
Threading my arm under Bane’s | enjoyed the quiet evening as we walked. This after dinner time was my favorite time of day.None of us had responsibilities and we could just relax together. Tonight we were headed for a chuke game.
