I should say that I'd got used to not living at home with the horde by this time and I had found myself a nice little flat before I even got back to m... hometown from Uni. All right, originally, I had intended that Mary Beth and I would start our married life living there together; but it served just as well as a bachelor pad. Somewhere that I could take all the conquests that a free man could enjoy, if you understand me?My relationship with Mary Beth did provide one very unexpected legacy.. He knew that it was foolish of him to be on his own in the dark on night; wolves and bears would not show him a second act of mercy. But he needed to be alone. He needed to hunt. Many years ago, he had studied the maps of the incubus territory and he remembered that there was a human village at the very edge of the map; a tiny little village that could so easily be whipped out by a passing troop of mercenaries. Incubuses usually targeted larger villages during their hunts as that allowed them. Their father is dead, and they have both been expelled from private schools for misbehavior, and now I can not find any other school in my price range which will take them. We have had two private tutors, both ladies, and one lasted a week the other disappeared after 24 hours, so you will know its not an easy job I am offering you." You can not be their mother - you are too young?" I said almost without thinking."Thank you. No, I am their older sister and both our parents are dead. I married. She was waiting for me because I have been brushing her off. Trying to make an impression I was always busy with work. I was also dealing with family issues and trying to salvage any shred of a social life with friends. Still there she stood before me. I was at a total loss for words.“Hey, what are you doing here?” I asked in a high pitched awkward sort of way.“I knew you were getting out early today so I hung around hoping to see you. You haven’t returned my voicemails today.” She said in this.
