“I’ll try not to be insulted by that,” Larisa said with a chuckle. “But we’re married. The emotional connection is already there.”

“I have to marry her to fuck her?” I asked incredulously.

“No,” Kingsnake said quickly. “But there needs to be something—”

The waitress came back over. “I’m off in fifteen minutes.” Again, it was as if Kingsnake and Larisa weren’t even there. “You got a room here?”

“Uh…” I turned to Larisa, unsure what to do now.

Larisa mouthed to me. “Room eighteen.”

I looked at the waitress again. “Room eighteen.”

“Then I’ll meet you there.” She flashed me that nice smile before she walked away, her tight ass looking snug in her trousers.

I looked at Kingsnake again. “So…she does want to fuck?”

“I guess you have better game than I gave you credit for.”

“Game?” I asked.

“It’s the dance,” Larisa said. “Now eat your dinner before you go. You’re going to need your energy for what’s coming.”

I felt my mouth stretch into a slow grin.

Larisa smirked back at me. “I’ve never seen you smile before. It’s nice.”

We walked to our accommodations, and down the hallway, I saw her standing there, leaning up against the wall with her arms crossed over her chest, those tits nice and plump.

Kingsnake grabbed my arm and held me back. “Hold on a sec.”

Larisa stopped too.

“Baby, this is kinda a guy thing…”

She smirked and walked away.

“I’ll make this quick,” Kingsnake said. “You can’t…release…inside her. Not unless she takes the herbs, which you’ll need to ask.”

“Why?”

“Because you could get her pregnant.”

“I’ve had hatchlings before.”

“Babies aren’t hatchlings, Fang. Totally different level of responsibility. And it’s a shitty thing to do if you’re going to be a snake again in a couple days. So ask her, and if she says no, you pull out at the last moment. You feel me?”

“But that’s not fun.”

“I know, but that’s how it is,” he said. “Now there are two holes. Only go for the one closest to her belly…”

“But I’ve seen you use both.”

Kingsnake gave me a cold look. “So you’ve seen everything, then?”

I gave a shrug. “We’ve lived together a long time, Kingsnake.”
