Inshal awoke to a tent that once felt like a blazing desert to now as if she slept outside. Marlo had his arms wrapped around her tightly and around twenty think covers ontop of them. "Good morning" Marlo pat the soft fur ontop of her head.
"Why is it so cold?" Inshal complained snuggling into him and Marlo gave a strange noise.
"We need those pills and fast then" Marlo spoke a little coldly.
"Why?" Inshal felt her heart panic a little and she curled her tail up.
"Well you're half demon so I'm guessing pregnancy symptoms are very similar" Marlo began, "first a pregnant demon would be sensitive to the cold, then they are overly protective over the smallest of things then all the average symptoms".
"Great so I am pregnant then" Inshal hissed to herself and flicked her tail.
"Most likely" Marlo rubbed her sides and Inshal got a little confused about something.
"So let me get something straight" Inshal sat up to look at him, "demons value their kin as the most important thing in the inter universe but yet agree to abortion?" Inshal narrowed her eyes and fliked her tail once more.
"Yeah basically" Marki shrugged, "do you need catching up on how demons work?" he asked and Inshal shook her head.
"I think I'm getting it" Inshal leaned back and Marko forced her to stand up.
"We're getting breakfast" Marlo yawned and they walked towards the commens tent, the short walk flet like a blizzard was active. 'Wait' Inshal thought for a second remembering a fact, 'angels also get sensitive to the cold when they have the flu or cold'.
They had at the bar and Malro ordered their breakfast, it didn't take long for Kelli to give them a large plate each. It was an English breakfast, filling and satisfying, she managed to eat the full plate when Marlo couldn't eat the last pile. "Huh" he commented with the worried look in his eyes, "hungry?" he asked but his tone still worried.
"Not anymore" Inshal pinned her ears, challenging him to make another comment.
"Alright" Marlo shrugged, "if this pill can't work on you then we have to head back to the underworld" he mumbled to himself at that part.
"I've never saw myself as a mother though" Inshal began to think about it, 'what would Newlaw do? when I return, would Marlo demand that it stays with him or would Newlaw sought to kill it?' she spiraled.
"Hey I know how to cheer you up" Marlo nudged her and pointed with his eyes to female general who was minding her own business.
"What?" Inshal asked, "what's with her?".
"He! thinks he is a She!" Marlo brought attention to himself with a laugh, causing everyone to pay attention.
The general rolled her eyes and gave a pissed look, "and?" Inshal asked not getting his point.
"No-one can just change gender" he spoke in a mocking tone, "but at least he sticks to girls, gays don't make sense". Inshal pinned her ears and hissed at him.
"You are aware that I'm bi right!" Inshal challenged, he just gave a shocked look mixed with fury. "Well?" Inshal asked challenged further, he didn't bother to argue back and just left, Inshal could hear the murmers of everyone in the room.
"Thanks" the general smiled, "I honestly feared that you would be as homophobic as him".
"No" Inshal sat with her.
"Want a drink?" she offered and Inshal shook her head.
"No I'm good" Inshal saw her shrug and leaned back on her chair.
"I heard that Xzaviar was sent back early, know anything about it?" she asked and Inshal tilted her head.
"He was sent back early?" Inshal echoed and it gave her an answer, "I haven't gotten your name" she mentioned.
"Oh Discord" Discord smiled took a sip from her drink, "what about that pure vampire that is kinda stuck in Xzaviars tent?" she asked.
"Oh Cole, I'm pretty sure he was the one who saved me" Inshal mentioned shivering.
"I thought I was told that you can't stand the heat?" Discord gave a wired look.
"I got used to it, now I crave it" Inshal shrugged and Discord just nodded, 'speaking of Cole, I haven't seen him since he bit that wolf'. "Hey see you around" Inshal said good bye and left for Xzaviars tent, that was where Discord said he was. She knocked and heard a dry voice call back, "come in" Cole still sounded rather friendly.
"It's been a little while" Inshal mentioned, "how have you been?" she asked looking at how drained he was.
"Could use a drink" Cole grinned, "where in the world is Xzaviar?" he seemed to be complaining.
"He was sent home early" Inshal inform.
"Why!?" Cole coughed, "oh I need to be let out tonight, or I'll not be surviving the night" he seemed to be struggling to breathe.
"You need blood?" Inshal asked, "I can get you blood".
"Thanks but I don't like demon blood or blood in a cup" Cole declined, "but thanks".
"No I can get you fresh blood, how do you like elf?" Inshal asked, "and how are you in tourchure?" she grinned, 'I need information, I'll get information'.
"What do you want?" Cole gave a look that says that he isn't too interested.
"I have a little pet project on what the war is about" Inshal grinned, 'lets hope he doesn't ask too many questions'.
"Oh, so I'll get a meal and you get a personal project done, alright" Cole nodded and Inshal smiled to herself.
"One sec need to get that elf" Inshal left and went to a soldier who was just standing around and playing with his necklace. "Are you free?" Inshal asked and he seemed to haved jumped out of his skin.
"Yes" he tucked his necklace into the scale like skin, "do you need something?" he asked standing taller.
"Yes, I need an elf soldier" Inshal began the order and she felt a power of pride, "can you get one?" she asked and saw the confusion of how her voice was soft or was he confused by the fact that she has a halo.
"What would you need with an elf warrior? I don't mean to disobey you but Marlo already has spy's" he seemed to have shrunken from her soft and friendly gaze.
"I have my own business to deal with" Inshal pinned her ears impatiently and he just nodded and headed out, flying out to the forest. A shiver reminded her of how cold she was.
She went back to her tent, the wave of heat welcoming to her and she saw a pissed off Marlo. "It's freezing out there" she complained and snuggled up to him.
"You're bi!" Marlo hissed and pushed her away gently.
"You're homophobic!" Inshal hissed back and sat by herself at the fire pit. Marlo huffed and pushed her into a cuddle.
"I got a soldier to get those pills in the morning when you were asleep" Marlo informed, he nibbled on her horn for a while but Inshal used her ears to slap in of. "Please don't fight me" he sounded sad, well sad for a demon.
"What if they don't work?" Inshal asked, changing the subject.
"If what doesn't work?" Marlo asked but then immediately answered his own question, "well I guess we have an early heir".
"I'm not ready" Inshal curled up, "but didn't Angily mention that I have a cold?" Inshal remembered the thought from earlier.
"Yeah so?" Marlo asked with a confused look.
"Angels get sensitive to the cold when they have a virus like the flu or cold" Inshal explained, "I might not be present but just the cold".
"Thank goodness" Marlo muttered under his breath and leaned back, "it's just that I never wanted kids, I've never been the one to settle down. I've always been one down for sex but not to be a father, I never been one for that kind of life" he explained, his voice turning softer the more he talked. Marlo cleared his throught and looked at her.
"What?" Inshal asked as she couldn't recognise his expectation.
"So I guess you didn't see that life is for you either" he smiled and his voice returned to normal.
"So I heard that Xzaviar has been sent hone early" Inshal mentioned and Marlo gave a look.
"Yeah he seemed to needing a mental health vacation, he was the one who asked me to kill him" Marlo frowned, "but a deep sin was on him, do you know what that was about?" he asked. Inshal just shook her head and they spent the rest if the morning together.
There wasn't much to do, outside was cold and inside didn't have much for entertainment. A knock on the door woke them out their boredom, "I've got what you requested" a soldier was let in and Marlo handed the pox of morning after pills. She took one under the instructions, "well there goes any fear we have of becoming parents" Inshal joked and Marlo pulled her in closer.
"Now we have the day together, wanna have a little fun?" Marlo grinned, he pulled her waist to his and Inshal felt the pressure of his d-ck grow.
"Alright" Inshal held onto him and layed onto her back, she felt her tail uncomfortably wag with the excitement. Inshal knows that she feels no love for him, not in the slightest, but she still feels and attention to him, something for comfort and security and every now and then sex.
