Lucivar came back into the room a few hours later after making sure both of babies had been taken somewhere else for the moment and having a conversation with them so they wouldn't start hissing and spewing, He sat on the edge of the bed and waited until Daemon let his eyes open enough to see who had sat down.

"Prick?"

Taking a deep breath he said, "Jaenelle and I talked and reached an agreement."

Well that didn't sound good. More so that his brother was telling him the terms of that agreement instead of their queen. "What are the terms/'

"I kept them simple since you're not thinking … at least not clearly."

"Prick." This time a warning tone.

"You have several months before you will be mostly recovered. In the mean time the family has agreed until you are recovered enough to have the conversation with Jaenelle that she needs to have with you… Being right next door is not the best place for you."

His heart sank a bit. Ok fine this room was for her consort anyways… He was not her consort just a man who hoped one day she would consider having as friend. "Alright, Where?"

Now that worried him. He had expected Daemon to put up a fight not just accept it. Perhaps this wasn't as good of an idea as he had thought it was. Unfortunately he wouldn't know until he played this out. "A cabin is being built for you on the property. Just outside the north woods."

He had a cabin. Of course the land belonged to the queen so he understood why he wouldn't be allowed there. Whereas the Hall was family property and belonged to the High Lord. So it stood for reason that his father would decide how much he had to obey the queen. "Why?"

'Why are you staying in a cabin or something else?"

"Why a cabin in the north woods."

No hint of anger just an acceptance that was more worrisome, "Because there are more than enough furry faces to watch over you. And some who have helped with your healing. The Cabin itself will be big enough for you to move around in without needing help and you'll have your own kitchen for when you feel up to cooking. Until then Someone will bring enough food out for you to feed yourself and at least half of the kindred wolfs."

"How mad is the queen?"

"How mad is she about what? You deceiving her? Oh well you two can talk when you'll feeling better she already has decided on a suitable punishment. Your children agree with her."

Well that wasn't good. "I see."

No I don't think you do. Taking a deep breath now, "The cabin won't be ready for till sometime tomorrow. I trust you won't do anything stupid tonight."

"Prick I can barely stay awake long enough to have this conversation. What could I possibly do between now and tomorrow?"

Kissing his brother's head he whispered , "You're a black jeweled warlord prince. I'm sure you could think of something."

Daemon waited until he was alone before responding, "Not this time."

Mid day Lucivar helped float his brother down the hall and out to the pony cart that was weighting. Tucking yet another heavy blanket around him he asked, "You need anything?"

"Just sleep."

Nodding he urged Buttercup on to the direction of the cabin.

Nothing special about the outside. A small porch noting else noticeable. Daemon swallowed as he entered. From the outside he didn't think there would be much space for a decent bed let alone anything else. To his surprise not only did he have enough from for his bed. A large bed that could hold a large cat that was not yet full size and himself. The kitchenette was simple but his. The simple round table sat in the center of the room. By the door a chess set and two more chairs. Then in the back a long couch and several books. "This was done in a day?"

"No it was stared after bringing you back from your cabin. Our cousin thought you would like a place that was close to your children but far enough away for those times when the little darlings scared the shit out of you."

"Jaenelle won't come here?" Not so much a question but curious.

"If you ask her she will, but this is your place Daemon. You need to step back and heal right now this is the best place without you and the lady having a conversation you won't clearly understand."

Shuffling over to the bed he looked at his brother, "What's there to understand. I'm not a member of her court."

Lucivar closed his eyes, "I'm not even going to discuss that with you." Taking a deep breath he went over to the cold box, "This is stocked with things that only need to be warmed up. IF you don't feel up to it one of the wolfs can."

"You taught them to warm food?"

'No, Cat taught them to warm food so you will be taken care of." Mother night let him understand the wording.

"Oh." He looked down, "She didn't need to do that. I'll be fine. Promise you'll barley know I'm here."

Something wasn't right. Too bad his brother looked ready to be tucked in. "I'll be by in the morning. Revenar will probably by at night."

"I don't need watched."

Now there was a growl he wanted to hear. "Like hell you don't you scared the shit out me. Which is something you will not do again."

"I always scare the shit out of you. Most the time I don't have to even move."

"Is he settled in?" Jaenelle asked the moment he closed the door behind him.

"How long till I can brain him?"

"If he started moving around now? About two months and he'll have the strength to get into a tussle that you think will be good for him."

"Good, then I'm going to talk to Revenar about making sure he does more than just sleep for the next two months."

"Lucivar?"

"He thinks he's there because you don't know what to do with him."

"I know exactly what I'm going to do with him but will take me two months to get everything planned out and put together."

"Good. Then the family had that long to convince him he's an idiot ."

"Lucivar!?"

"What else would call him? He actually thinks you're going to let him walk away from the court and his children."

"He's not an idiot he's upset and not thinking."

"He's my brother. I get to call him an idiot. Oh and ask father to have Peyton help. I'm sure the ass can get Daemon thinking much faster than I can."

Jaenelle blinked, "If they tussle like you do Daemon will kill him."

"I know. That why you're going to give the jackass a shield and make sure Daemon can't get through it."

"Oh that's mean."

"I can't bully my brother right now. I don't see why Peyton would need to be as cautious."
