little snake," he said with a leer, causing Sabine to blush at his blatant undressing of her with his eyes.

Dressed and ready he dropped to a knee and held out his hand not breaking eye contact with the small woman.

As her small hand slipped into his and he leveraged the short woman up he marveled at her short stature, her eyes just meeting his even though he was kneeling on the ground.

"I have never asked but how old are you my little snake." He asked with a little trepidation, afraid the small woman would be "jail bate".

Uncaring of the traditions of this world, he didn't think he could accept her being too young for him.

Having raised a young girl himself the thought of taking an underage girl causing a shiver of revulsion to tear through him.

"I have been alive for eighteen summers my Cade," Sabine replied with a quizzical look in her eyes as her mate shook with some strong emotion.

"Thank GOD!" He said blowing out a breath and standing with Sabine's small hand still lightly held in his grip.

"Well, let's beat feet and be on our way," Cade said as walked and Sabine slithered towards where Mina was waiting patiently with a knowing smile just starting to crack her features.

"How shall I beat feet when I have no feet to beat anything with Cade?" Sabine asked as Mina's smile overtook her face and a small chuckle made its way past her lips.

"Don't tell her my mate I will show her how to view your memories while we travel, it will be quicker that way than trying to explain your jargon," Mina replied with a hand on Cade's arm as they made their way to the shore and stepped onto the slavers barge.

"Just make sure to let us in as we make our way upriver, I would rather Sabine get in that way then cause undue harm in order to slip past your new defenses," Mina said a few moments later as they cruised upriver quickly, courtesy of his power.

"How do I let you in?" He asked at Mina's request to enter his mind.

"There are a few ways that will let us bypass your defenses when we wish, some more permanent than others. One we could use now will be temporary but will work for the moment." She said with a shrug.

"Ok we have a moment lets get it done and bring Sabine up to speed." He said to Mina with a grin as he locked in their direction and dove into his own mind as his mates did the same into theirs.

Dropping into his mindscape Cade felt two signatures outside of his mental shield, one Mina's familiar mental patterns and the other had to be Sabine's.

Turning to look at his beautiful mates he was not surprised to see them in a hushed conversation on the suburban street in front of his home.

After a few minutes, they looked at one another and turned to look at him as he waited patiently in front of his home small smiles written across their faces.

Sensing some sort of subterfuge going on but choosing to ignore it for the moment Cade did what he had done with Mina's giant panther invaders.

He focused for a second on making an opening in his shield large enough for his mates in the dome surrounding his mental home.

"Now my Cade that will work for now." Mina said as they both came through his shield.

"What do you mean that will work, we didn't do anything?" He said as he searched for a sign of a mental connection, or something along those lines that would cause Mina to claim the process was complete.

"YOU don't have to do anything, just letting us in after we completed our part was all we needed my love," she said with a smirk.

"His defenses are impressive though, as long as you don't get in. After that, we could do whatever we wanted, most likely without him knowing." Sabine said, a grin growing on her face.

That grin was followed by one of the cutest snorts he had ever heard as she saw the absolute terror that flew across Cade's face.

He would have found it a little more appealing, except he was frozen with dread at the thought of someone sneaking in his mind and doing to him what he had done to Oren.

"As long as you don't decide to puppet me around we are fine my little snake," he said as he got over his crisis. If the girls were going to screw him over they would have done it by now, Mina especially.

Walking towards the house with the same conspiratorial smiles written on their faces, Mina and Sabine both placed a kiss on Cade's cheeks as he bent almost in half so they could reach them.

Their smiles broke into giggles as they looked at the other at the necessity of the now stooped position Cade found himself in.

"Ah a male who knows his place, a rare thing we must encourage, don't you say Sabine?" Mina said in a faux haughty tone, marred by the giant smile plastered on her face.

"Yes, my Dresk we must find a way to reward such good behavior, bowing to the beauty of one's mates," Sabine replied as she slid slowly past Cade, her hips swaying seductively drawing his whole body with their switching.

Cade for his part found he didn't mind serving his mate's reward or no, the looks of happiness on their faces enough of a reward.

"Happy wife happy life," he said with a chuckle as he righted himself. He had found in his long prior
