“She’s an admin for the XIA.I don’t know if the agents know what she is, though.”Nylora smiled.
“She’s Jerrik’s aunt?”Hannah asked.
Iris grinned.“No.She was my neighbour on the opposite side.She was Jerrik’s after-school care for his first four years.It’s nice to have people around on the night shift.She didn’t seem to need much sleep.”She checked her phone.“She’s home.She’s bored, and she wants to know what’s in it for her?”
Hannah looked around to where her family and two of the dark elves were working at the barbecue and grill.“Pulled pork and mac and cheese.”
Iris paused and laughed.“Dessert?”
“Banana cream pie.”
There was a pause, and Iris laughed.“Done.She’s tracking my phone.Just make sure you put that pie aside for her.She doesn’t like a bait and switch.”
“Good to know.I am guessing she needs a whole one?”Hannah nodded.
“Good guess.”Iris chuckled and read out loud, “Dessert acquired.”
Isocar created a cage from trees and vines, and Nylora caused it to glow bright as she arranged it high in a tree.
Neekil and Emmers were laughing.Kairek was coming over to see if he could show Jerrik some Dullahan things.
Iris looked a little nervous, but she let her son go.“He needs to learn this stuff.The warning to hang onto his head was timely.Two of the bullies on his team tried to grab him, but he hung on, and then his fire flared out, and the kids let go.I nearly beat their parents, but Jerrik was just happy he remembered to hold his head.”
Hannah looked over at Kairek and his son removing their heads and practicing taking it off and putting it on.
A portal started to open near the house, and Hannah wasn’t sure what to expect, but then an ice-blue giantess in cycle shorts and a sports bra walked through the gateway.The woman was seven feet tall, and her abs had abs.Hannah looked at her as she put her white hair up in a scrunchie.The woman grinned.“This had better be some good mac and cheese.You are Hannah?”
“Uh, yeah.”
“Cool.I am Amy.So, whose ass am I kicking?”Amy got her hair up in a tight bun.
Hannah pointed to Neekil and Emmers.“Either one of them would be good.The wall of challenges is over there, and I think all the dark elves are going to drown in their own drool.”
“Yeah, all they can imagine is how much square footage to play with.”Amy bent her elbow and started some runner’s stretches.She was being watched from all over the yard.
“Where do you get a sports bra in that size?”Hannah blurted out.
“It’s a custom build.So, wrestling first?”
Hannah grinned.“Oh, please.This I have to see.”
They walked toward the area where the dark elves were wrestling, and as they passed Jerrik, they heard, “Aunt Amy!Why are you big today?”
“Oh, I am going to wrestle so that Hannah doesn’t have to.”
“Why?”
“Because Neekil is bigger than her.”
Jerrik got excited.“Oh, because he pins her every time.That’s why.”
Neekil was laughing, and Hannah had a hand over her eyes.
Amy walked to the edge of the wrestling ring and said, “Okay, who is standing in for the delicate homeowner?”
She stood, and Hannah watched Neekil look around.Emmers slowly raised his hand.“I’ll do it.”
Amy looked at him and laughed.“Well, the one guy here who won’t freeze his balls off touching me.Well done, Emmers.”
