Dragoncrest Cliffs dead men tell no tales

apologies for the delay! will post again around Friday 28th <3

The effort of the sprint had twisted his leg some, and it was only now as his teeth gripped the boy that he realised he was bleeding. One of the bastards had nicked him in the scuffle; Nox didn't know nor care to find out who, and the swell of pain served only to strengthen his hold.

But whatever the kid whittered on about seemed to have tugged at the heartstrings of the red woman who now came to offer herself in place. The captain considered this for a moment with an amused snort, as saltsiren's cries cut through the battle. He was confident Crowell would take her no matter her fight, but the idea of banking one more for their efforts was too tempting to ignore. "Call yer people off my crew and we 'ave a deal," his teeth sank deeper into the dark furs of the boy's neck.

They'd raid the caches once the bitches were marched home, and whilst he awaited an answer his eyes narrowed in warning to the second child frozen nearby as if to say, you're next!
