Damn, Kristof still wanted the vampire dead. I knew it wasn’t easy after Vitor had almost killed Inez, but it had been an accident. He needed to get over it or he was going to end up hurting her.
But most of it was jealousy. Kristof didn’t want someone so much older than him that he didn’t already know in his wife’s bed. I honestly couldn’t blame him for that, but all of these contradictions were tying her in knots.
Princesses do what they want… Besides this, this, and a list of rules.
Build your court but don’t put in too many feelings… Except the feelings of the nobles who want her.
Yeah, I understood better why princesses shut themselves off from people.
Not my mother. She was just fucking nuts.
Inez whimpering pulled me from my thoughts.
I licked my lips thinking about what Kristof was doing to her even as my own jealousy spiked. I didn’t ever want to push Inez, but I was dying to have more from her. I wanted to be one of her husbands so bad it wasn’t even funny.
And I wouldn’t be stupid like the others had been.
“It’s always great when the guard is distracted,” Joi drawled from my left. She snorted when I flinched. “How about you go make a run for the fruits they’re collecting in South America for these vampires?” She shrugged when I frowned. “They didn’t have much at all, not just meat. Most of everything around them had been bombed or heavy fighting.”
“So they need vitamins and fruits as well, right,” I muttered.
She gave me a look to get a move on, and a smart person listened to what any of the Sisters of the Earth wanted.
And I was smart. I looked at the door though.
“She’s going to get the convention center online and head back to the castle. She’s fine. If not, we’ll grab another guard. This will take a bit though.”
Fair enough. I thanked her and made sure she would tell Inez that I didn’t just bail.
“I’ll tell her that you were about to jerk one off listening to her have sex and I didn’t want to see that, so I sent you on a useful errand,” she drawled.
Okay then. No, I didn’t poke back or say anything.
Any of the Sisters could squash me, and given the looks they already gave me because of the coven I was from, I wasn’t going to give them reason to want to.
I raced down and found a few nobles now in Inez’s coven handling this project. They were glad for some help running. I promised to bring back some of the older vampires from Kaitlin’s coven. They could at least do one trip if we showed them where to go.
Sure enough, I had volunteers all over when they heard it was to get food to their coven. Ten came with me and should have easily been able to handle the one-ton totes, but they were all too far down on the tank. It actually hurt me to witness. A few were my age even if they weren’t nobles and it should have been fine.
“Inez is a miracle and will really help you guys,” I promised them when they were huffing and puffing from carrying it.
Inez saw us and I went over to her, noting Joi’s amusement. “Good, thank you for handling that.”
“Of course, My Princess.” I bit back a smile when she blushed ever so slightly. It gave me patience to know I affected her so much.
Not as much as she affected me, but it was a start.
“If I might suggest a break and some hunting?” I said when I realized she seemed a bit overwhelmed. “I know that situation in northern Indiana is for the princesses of your alliance, but they’re still doing some hunting in Jackson.”
“Honestly, we could use more farms,” she muttered. “And easy on the stomach like roast chicken or the hogs. We have all the fish here we need. It’s just getting it all handled and done like yesterday.”
Fair enough.
“I will handle it along with bringing down some turkeys as there are too many around here as well.”
She sighed. “At least they freeze well. Yes, let’s get them processed, and I can always turn on more freezers.” She let out another sigh. “We need a fucking solar farm here too. I don’t know if they’ve mapped out where and—”
“I will undertake that project, My Princess.” I nodded when she did a double take. “It’s going to be so we can house humans and that’s my role now. Moon and I can handle it after dinner.” I cleared my throat and moved closer. “Kristoff will have to coordinate with the nobles and keep a close eye on this new coven. Is there any chance I might get to snuggle with you tonight?”
