Ekron chuckled as he returned to them.Ithal started giggling.

Alody looked at her son.Delight was dancing in his eyes.

Ithal said, “Ekron threatened to unpack your underwear, but Sgoth stopped him.”

Alody was still pinned to Eskin when he flared silver, and the room blazed with light.Ekron held his hands out, palms up.“It was a joke.”

Shocks of lightning zapped Ekron, and he yelped and said, “Sorry, sorry.”

Alody snickered.“Perv.Just like your dad.”

Ekron’s brows rose high.“What?”

“Oh, Iron was known for wandering hands long before he settled down and got your mom pregnant.He also learned that I can break a hand or jaw and sleep like a baby before I heal them.”

Ekron blinked.“Noted.Wait.You broke Iron’s bones?”

“Yup.”

Ekron nodded.“I wish you well in organizing your clothing.”

She smirked.“Good boy.You can learn.I am sure Drin is happy about that.”

He paused and blinked.“You just started broadcasting an aura.”

Alody shrugged.“I do that.”

Ithal explained, “It means she’s mad and looking for something that needs tending to.”

Eskin’s arm tightened.“There is nothing that you need to do right now, Alody.”

She looked at him, and his understanding was there.She smiled.“You always were a quick study.”
