My home village would believe me, I thought as I lay in the dirt. I stared up at the branches that stretched high above my head, searching for answers... And then it hit me. My home village! They all knew that I had been taken by Vindictus guards. Not only that, but they knew why I had been taken. If there was anyone in this realm who would believe my story, it would be my surrogate family! I hurriedly flipped back to the map of the land. I repeated the location spell, only this time I conjured. I was afraid of what Sir would do if heknew i did something behind his back. But i was pissed at Sir so i said"Yes, Sir i would like to go home with you and your boy." The leatherman'sslave approached. He was a younger guy, about 5'6". He wore tight leathershorts, boots and a chain around his neck with a lock. He approached hismaster eagerly and almost forgetting to lower his eyes in respect. Theleatherman said, "Boy, this is slave Juan. Give each other a nice slavekiss." i didn't know what he. I haven't been able to stop thinking about it." I blurt out. She looks up at me now, but her eyes are different. There's a subtle, smoldering fire in there. I't a look I've never seen in her before. "...Do you want me Ben?" She asks in a tone that manages to sound both seductive and uncertain at the same time. I feel shivers run down my spine, listening to her."I... I... Oh god, I do Mom! I want you. I want to be the one to take care of you." I finally manage to stutter, my thoughts a blur."I. The other dog is, uh, interesting."They went out and got in the truck. "Dad has pretty well agreed with the idea of trading Hemp for Beauty and Maybellene, so there's that," she said. "That leaves us with Gustav and Clyde." The summer meeting is next weekend," Josh said. "Maybe I'll just haul them down there and see what we can do."He and Tiffany walked out to the dog lot to see the new dogs, before getting Bullet and the pups. They stopped to look at Bingo, first. "He looks pretty good," was.
