"Andaran. atish'an." Dalish said slowly to Krem careful to enunciate each word clearly.
"Andaran atish'an" Krem repeat making Dalish sigh with relief.
"Your accent is terrible but at least you can say some basic things finally." Dalish praised making Krem grimace.
"I did not think it was so bad." Krem defended, only for a voice behind him to laugh.
"If I had not heard Dalish, was it? Before I would have never guess that was elven." Krem turned in his seat and saw a gorgeous female elf standing in front of the chief.
"I have only been learning for a few months between mission, so chief care to introduce us?" Krem asked, the chief sat at the table with the woman sitting on his blind side sitting with her body turned so her back was just slightly towards the chief to cover his blind spot.
"Nehra, we picked her up when we stopped the elder shit in the woods." The chief explained, causing Nehra to laugh.
"Funny I don't recall being carried at any point, was that an option?" Krem smirked at her humor, Chief laughed along with her.
"as much fun as that sounds I think the boss might have issue with it." Nehra shrugged, Krem wondered what the chief meant by that but Nehra moved on.
"So what is a human Shemlen doing learning the Elven tongue?" Krem frowned, as did Skinner and Dalish.
"I thought Human and Shemlen were the same." Skinner said Nehra shrugged.
"To normal elves yes but when you are an elf like me everyone is a Shemlen it means quick child referencing how fast this world's lifespans have gotten since the fall of the true empire." Dalish stared at her in shock.
"You're an ancient." Dalish gasp.
Nehra looked at Chief. "Was I suppose to hide that? I thought everyone new the truth."
"Best keep quiet about it the official story is that the Boss lived near an old chantry temple and that is why he knows so much." Nehra nodded.
"So why are you learning the tongue Krem is it?" Nehra pressed again, Krem smirked at her one minded drive.
"The inquisitor told me to start learning it after seeing my soulmate tattoo, that threatening me over it." Krem explained, uncomfortable about sharing it but for some reason trusting her.
Nehra responded by reaching up under her short skirt of elven maille and beginning to do something to her leggings. Krem blushed and looked around to make sure nobody was watching turning back he froze staring at something he had only seen on his own body before. Dalish leaned over the table with Skinner and froze as well.
"That explains the boss telling me to warn Krem about breaking her heart." Krem looked at the Chief.
"So I am guessing I can pull my legging up now? Or is this one of those merc groups that welcome a new soulmate with an orgy, cause I think Bull here might be a little too big for me without a warm up and a LOT of lube." Nehra asked, Bull blinked the started laughing Krem made choking noises, Dalish sat stunned staring at Nehra and Skinner just shrugged.
"No Orgies, again I think the Boss would take issue." Nehra scoffed at the Chief's complaint.
"My father knows I am a big girl, who I have sex with is my choice." Krem's mind clicked with Nehra's words.
"You father is the inquisitor?" Krem asked weakly, Nehra nodded proudly.
"That is right. Now since we have made it clear there is no orgy happening how about we head back to my chambers and I show you a few toys I saved from the temple, ones suited to wolf blessed like you." Nehra purred walking around the table and saddling Krem's lap facing him.
"Um…" "I have not had any for over a hundred years, you would not leave your soulmate with her loins aching for your touch a moment long than needed would?" Nehra purred against his throat as she kissed and nipped at it.
"Or would you rather take me here and now… me take you here and now?" Krem stood swiftly Nehra smoothing adjusting to be holding herself on by legs on his hips and arms around his neck.
"Lead the way to your room then please?" Krem requested and Nehra smiled sliding down and taking his hand.
"The Inqiusitor's daughter is nothing like her father." Skinner remarked, The Chief hummed.
"I wonder if that is what Boss was like when he was young." Dalish wondered and the trio looked at each other and shrugged.
