“Are you sick? now I am starting to get very angry. If she gets sick, if she dies -
“N-no,” she stammered. “I-ah, it’s, it’s just embarrassing.”
I could not prevent a small smile from escaping my lips. I probably looked like a deranged beast because she froze. But nevertheless, I felt compelled to feed the female. If it was others, even my other lovers, I would let them be hungry and let them feed themselves. I do not even have that thought with Roqs.
Immediately, I let go of her and faced the door.
“Let’s eat.”
Already, in just a few moments with her, I feel these strange feelings inside me again. I need more information about her kind. Is she influencing me?
I did not wait for either of them to leave the room. I went down the stairs and went straight to the pub I just left.
Chapter Eight

It’s nighttime so I grabbed the nearest free table. There will be more patrons coming in. The door swung open, and I saw Roqs walking behind Brin. I was not surprised he was looking at her ass now that he knows Brin is a she. Yet, looking at him, he does not seem to be too affected by his need for the female. If all else, he looked merely intrigued. Not surprising given he did not even touch her.
Unless.
I narrowed my eyes. She glanced at me briefly just to make sure she chose the right table. Instead of choosing the seat beside me, she chose the one in front of me. Roqs slide in smoothly beside her.
“Two!” I shouted out to the server. The same server who is now looking at her the same way he was eyeing me earlier.
Somebody growled.
The server looked at me with wide eyes. Belatedly, I realized it was me.
I looked back at the table.
Roqs had his mask on. It means he realized something. I cannot read him when he is like this. I hope he shares his insights with me. And soon.
Brin. Brin’s eyes are as big as the server. She looked down when she realized she was staring at me.
“Where did you see Brin?” For some reason, I do not want to let others know her gender.
Roqs was silent for a moment. The server went behind the bar.
“Near the Salt Border.” Still looking at me with his mask on, he continued, “I followed my nose and wanted to surprise you. Imagine my surprise when I saw.. Brin sleeping in bed.”
“Ah.”
“Ah? Is that all you can say my friend?” his eyes were laughing at me.
I just grunted.
He knew me well enough not to laugh at my face when I am in this mood.
“Then what happened?”
“Brynn of course screamed so loud my ears almost fell off. We were raised by our parents to act better than that.”
Clearly, Roqs is in a playful mood. And he is a complete liar. We were both hellions and both roar, growl, scream whenever we please.
“Then she ran away from me. Ran! Do you know what that means?”
He seems to be playing an act today for the female. Though he is speaking to me, his eyes are directed to her. And she is all red in the face again.
