His mother gave his face one last pat before going to Lorcan's side. "I'll check on you later, Killian."

Lorcan muttered, "I think he's forgotten we're here. He looks to be suffering from cockblindness."

"Lorcan," Caitlin growled.

However, they were gone before he could hear what they said next.

Once they were alone, Brenna took a step toward his cell. "I hate that they have you locked up like this."

Black grunted. Me, too. We're perfectly fine for the moment. There's no need for a cell.

Killian mentally sighed. Until the divider comes down, and then you'll go back to fighting.

Not with Brenna in the room. I want to talk with her, Black stated.

Blue spoke up. Me, too. I miss her.

Before he could think too much about their statements, Brenna's voice prevented his reply. "How are the dragons doing?"

"It's a complicated situation."

Closing the distance to the cell, she smiled up at him. "I'm listening."

Raising a hand, he reached to touch her face, but stopped short. Clenching his fingers, he returned his fist to his side. "Why are you here?"

"What do you mean why am I here? I'm your mate."

He shook his head. "Not in actuality. You have no obligation to stand by me and be nice."

She frowned. "Please tell me that Killian the dutiful arsehole isn't back."

"I'm not being an arse. I'm being truthful."

Moving her face to just outside the gap between the bars, she growled, "I'm here because I want to be. There's no need to continue with the self-sacrificing bullshit."

"You say that now, but I have a double-headed dragon inside my head and anytime they start fighting, I fall into a seizure. Standing by my side isn't going to be a walk in the park."

She motioned to her side. "Easy is boring. Besides, I've stuck with you this long."

"Now who's self-sacrificing? Bloody hell, we haven't even had sex yet."

"A relationship is about more than sex, Killian O'Shea. Although what with having two male dragons in your head, that may be all you think about now."

Blue spoke up. I'm not thinking about that yet. I just like her voice.

Black grunted. I wouldn't mind fucking her, but for once, I agree with the baby. I like her voice too.

So the only thing you two can agree on is that you like Brenna's voice?

Blue looked at Black. I'm sure there are other things we have in common. I like food. And napping.

Killian interjected, Can we save this conversation for later? Once Brenna's gone?

Both beasts grunted and remained silent.

Meeting Brenna's inquisitive glance, he said, "You don't want to know what my dragons are thinking."

She reached out and took his hand. The warm softness of her skin made him want to bend the bars aside and pull her close.
