So Long Freedom, Hello Punishment!

Jasper flinched and was happy to be let free. He gently held Taw and went over to where Nilima and Sarah were with her. Seele crawled behind them in a silent panic and watched as the two men got dealt with by Hilda.

“Let me and Seele go now” Lyle growled while glaring at Hilda.

“Please, the nursery…” Taw pleaded in a whisper to Jasper.

“They put your baby in the nursery?” Nilima had heard the announcement that Taw had a baby, she had assumed that the baby would have been kept with where Taw was being kept.

Taw nodded, throat tightening.

“You are in no position to be making demands, young man.” Hilda said as she kept both Doron and Lyle in the air with her power.

Sarah, upon seeing Taw, couldn't help herself. She reached out and gently touched the woman’s arm, her power instantly starting to heal her.

“We never asked to be here” he growled as he struggled against her.

Taw jerked slightly, and looked at Sarah.

Duuk caught up with the group. “What the hell is that baseline doing up here? And her!” Duuk pointed at Taw, his cracked face darkening with anger. “How did she get out of her room?”

“Jasper, most likely,” Hilda answered and stared up at Lyle. “Yet, here you are.” She lowered him enough for Doron to deal with him. Doron, though, was dropped without a second thought. She knew he could catch himself.

Turning to the girls, she saw Silver pulling Sarah away. “I think all Taw wishes for is to see her child…shall I escort her and keep things limited or is she still under observation, love?” Hilda asked calmly, keeping her facial expression cold. It was always the face she kept up when in front of her mate.

Lyle glared at them his tongue running over the spot in his mouth where the missing false tooth once was.

“She is not to see or go anywhere near the child.” Duuk said coldly. “Put her back in her room. Quasim can finish healing her later. And Jasper…” Duuk smiled. “I’ll deal with Jasper personally.”

“Please…” Taw whispered, pressing close to Jasper.

Nilima was disgusted, How could Duuk keep a mother from her newborn child? This was not right.

Doron did catch himself. He began beating Lyle.

Jasper just glared at Duuk with rage in his eyes. It was never known if he was meta or not, so he’d been trained to be a good slave…most of the time. His love for Taw seemed to always get him in trouble, though.

Hilda turned her gaze to the girl, letting her hair hide the hurt on her face at Duuk’s orders. “Come, girls, I must return you to your rooms.” She said in a stiff tone. “That includes you, pink haired one.” Her gaze went to Seele, merely wanting to get her away from Doron before he made true on that wish to break out her teeth.

She would use her darkness to take the three women away.

Silver took Sarah away, shrugging at Jasper as if telling him ‘you should have just fucked off.’

Jasper merely stood there, waiting for his punishment.
