Syar chuckled. “What?”
“I like coffee with an unwholesome kind of love, and the last cup I had was on the plane.”
She finished her cup and reached for the carafe, but the server got there before her. He filled her cup with a smile, and she smiled back before cradling the cup in her hands.
Ven asked, “So, what is on the agenda today?”
Syar smiled. “I thought we would go for a walk-through of the town and introduce you around.”
She whined, “But I am so tired.”
Reynaldo smiled. “It will only take a few hours. The town is not that large.”
“Hours?”
“We will keep you up, but you do need more of a wardrobe, and it is in your contract that Syar pays for any clothing he wants you to wear.”
“Yeah, but...”
The servers brought the breakfast out, and the cooked bird was in some kind of gravy today. She sighed. “The missus is feeding her pet.”
The server chuckled. “It is an honour to be fed by them, miss.”
She washed her hands and wiped them on a cloth. “Right. Here we go.” She slowly started dissecting the fowl with her fingertips while the other two got more standard breakfast foods.
The bird was juicy and tasty, and the gravy was just some light starch to bind the drippings together. Ven made her way through the roast bird until it was gone.
The other two were waiting for her. She drank a third cup of coffee and a glass of juice and looked at them. They were grinning.
She sighed. “What?”
Syar said, “You make happy kitten sounds while you eat.” He paused and then said, “You also make those sounds when we kiss your neck and shoulders.”
“Oh. Balls.”
Reynaldo snorted. “It’s cute. Adorable even.”
She groaned. “Delightful. That’s embarrassing.”
Syar smiled. “It’s sweet.”
She blushed and pressed her hands to her cheeks.
Syar took her hand and squeezed. “C’mon. Let’s meet people.”
She got up and paused. “I need shoes.”
Reynaldo slowly reached down and lifted her shoes, dangling the straps from his fingertips. “Got ‘em.” He got to his feet and put her sandals on, strapping them in place. “There you go, princess.”
She slowly got up. “I have shoes.”
Syar pulled her out of the morning room and yanked her outside into the bright light. There were birds cruising through the air and people setting up kiosks and stands.
Ven grinned when a horse walked up to her and snuffled her hair. She stroked the wide jaw. “Hello, sweetie. Having a good morning?”
The horse’s lashes fluttered, and it leaned toward her. Reynaldo slapped its side, and the horse’s skin shivered as he raised his head. Reynaldo smiled. “Told you, you smell good.”
They met the farmers and importers, popped into the dance studio, met the mayor, florists, and all the vendors that made daily life pleasant and enjoyable.
