Page 144 of Valpar

I thought for a moment, running my fingers through Valpar’s hair. If he isn’t the same fainting Simon, maybe…

“Does he not faint anymore? That’s... that’s wonderful!”

Valpar winced. “No, that isn’t what happened.”

I tilted my head in confusion.

“He—changed. He isn’t a goat. He’s human on the top part of his body and goat on the other half. Your mother said he was called— a faun.” Valpar scratched his head.

He continued to speak but my smile grew so wide I could hardly contain myself. “Where is he! I want to see! He sounds amazing!” I tried to jump off Valpar’s lap, but he held me in place.

“He isn’t here. He ran off.” He grunted.

I frowned, still holding the banana in my one hand. “But why? Why would he run?”

Valpar shook his head. “I don’t know. Maybe because he was embarrassed? Afraid? His scent didn’t change, and I think I' smelled him around the cabin.”

I tapped my lips with my finger. This was good. Simon wasn’t far. He was still hanging around. He was just waiting for me to wake up. I will coax him to come out and talk to me.

Having a conversation with my best friend was going to be great; it wouldn’t be one-sided anymore, and I could still be with him if he fainted. Yes, this going to be flippin’ awesome. I couldn’t wait to see him and ask him so many questions. What was his life before me? What was it like to have two legs? To talk? Is he really always hungry?

Valpar grabbed my chin and pulled it toward his face. “What are you thinking so hard for?”

I bit my lip. “Just thinking about Simon. He’s going to be talking now. It’s gonna be great, we can all live as a family. Do you have an extra bedroom? He’s gonna have to sleep in a bed now.”

Valpar’s eyes widened and he took a sharp intake of breath. “Let’s not get ahead of ourselves. He didn’t want to have anything to do with us after he changed.”

“But I’m his best friend. He will come to me.” I placed my hand over his chest. “I’m his human support companion. You’ll see.”

Valpar nodded and patted my thighs. “Whatever my miresa wants, she gets. Now eat more besides your yellow tree dicks. Infact, I’m banning them. No more of those things in the cabin.” He narrowed his eyes. “You need meat.”

I nodded my head. “Yes, I need some meat. Like yours?” I winked at him and looked between his legs. He was already hard, but let’s face it, he was always hard.

He growled at me, put my naked back to his chest and pulled more food out of the crate. “You will eat, and then I will take you on every surface in this cabin, but not before. You are small and I do not need you to waste away.”

I leaned my head back and stared up at him. “Ooo, is that a promise?”

He snorted and cupped my tiny breast. “My words are law, little fairy.”

As we ate, Valpar grumbled how he would feed me food he prepared from now on. I ignored him and ate happily. I didn’t care if the food was prepared by him. I just liked that he fed me. Right now, I had an enormous appetite and was eating triple what I normally would.

He said my parents were around the wood somewhere. They were waiting for me to wake up and refused to listen to his telling them to leave. Valpar complained more, and I had to take my thumb and iron out the wrinkle between his eyes, so it didn’t get stuck that way. I smiled at him and urged him to eat, himself, but he just continued to call them ridiculous. I know my parents trusted him, it was just—they loved me, too. They wanted to see me happy.

Because they were my family.

My parents and aunt and uncle trusted Valpar, but they were my family and Valpar didn’t understand they weren’t going anywhere for a while. My heart warmed at that.

Karma and Ivy were so wrong.

I was disappointed to learn that my orc didn’t sit and squish Karma with his magnificent butt. To be nearly squeezed to death and then squashed by his big toe will have to do.

Too bad I missed it.

Valpar cleared his throat several times and with my back leaning up against his chest I could feel the concern in his body. It was weird, also still overwhelming. I could feel all his emotions inside him, and it was upsetting not to know what it was. I finally had to pinch his nipple and ask what the heck was wrong with him, that I could feel his worry.

“I want to know what happened to you, but I do not want to cause you distress.”

My sweet orc shone love through this bond we had. It had covered me in a giant blanket. He was angry at what I went through, and his concern was to know what happened, so he did nothing to trigger me and cause me issues later.
