Only in the dark of night
Sah watched the dragon and wolf pair lead the way with an amused smile. It was adorable and he could feel Lilly getting competitive. He wondered which companion would find the bark first? How would that play out? He had a feeling Lilly would gloat or pout. She didn't come across as a graceful loser or winner.
As they walked, Sah wasn't surprised to hear the Seren knew Vai. "Yup, that's her. She really is motherly now that you mention it. She lived with you?" He asked out of curiosity, but not pressing the matter if Seren didn't wish to expand on it."
The second Seren spoke her mother's name Sah's eyes widened, adrenaline flooding his system. He took a step back, putting distance between him and the demigod immediately. Lilly raced to his side and hid behind his leg. The little pup bared her fangs, trembling slightly as she felt her bonded's emotions. "Safrin is your mother?" He asked, his tone equal parts guarded and fearful. He let out a deep breath, bracing himself.
"I'm an Abandoned." Sah stated simply, as both an explanation and a warning. An explanation for his reaction, a warning that if she suddenly attacked, he would defend himself. At least, he would do his damn best and he would make sure Lilly got out ok above all else. Gritting his teeth slightly and trying not to growl for fear of instigating what had to be an imminent attack, Sah stepped further in front of Lilly, his posture defensive. There was no way that a child of the old gods would remain friendly, right?
