Exton

Pandora slept late... Ob's attentions had relaxed her totally, and after her orgasm she drifted into a dreamless sleep.

Chloe was talking to herself in the cradle... her small cooing sounds making Pandora smile... she rarely fussed; patiently waiting for her mama or papa to pick her up. She slipped from her bed and lifted Chloe,removing her clothing she took her into the shower with her... turning the spray to the softest mist she played under the spray with Chloe, delicately washing her with baby soap and cradling her in her arm took care of washing herself. Chloe laughed out loud at the water, not at all afraid.

Soon Pandora had herself and Chloe dressed,she put Chloe in her druma and took a moment to talk to Ob... "I hope you don't object my husband, but I sense things are going on downstairs that require my attention, we will be safe with Monty and the riders there." Pandora stroked his face,and left the room.

There was a beehive of activity when Pandora reached the bottom of the stairs; fairies and fae were scurrying and flitting through the air... and Monty and Patty were buried beneath a pile of goods. "What is all this?"... Monty soon caught her up on the extent of the poisoning and she commented... "I don't care what you get rid of, if its even suspect give it to the fae to dispose of; I'll help." Pandora kept an infant seat downstairs and soon had Chloe in it sitting on a table close to the bar where she could watch her... soon a couple of the fairy females joined Rachal and were flitting around caressing her face and she was laughing with glee. Relieved that she was being entertained; she turned her hand to helping .

While they worked Monty filled her in on the people staying at the tavern... the place being regarded as a safe haven because all the poisons had been discovered here... and the riders and fae were watching everything that entered now.

Cassie was among the guests; Keon wanting her safe till his return. Pandora smiled at mention of the couple, she had watched their last evening at the tavern... the obvious attraction between them and was happy for Keon. Pandora found Cassie fascinating and hoped to get to know her better.

Time went swiftly... and Pandora took time out to take Chloe in the small office and feed her... putting her sleeping daughter back in her seat she returned to the issue at hand.

Silk was out back working on a spell to destroy the tainted goods; she was relieved to have her there, knowing that things were being handled as they needed to be under Mortuis' directions.
