Chapter 356
“Yes,” I answered trying to sound petulant.
I wished they would tell me when I could stop acting like a brat.
“Address me as Master Christof and I will feed you,” he said with authority.
I looked up at where they were sitting and Bane nodded his head subtly.
“Yes, Master Christof, I am hungry,” I said watching them.
Christof came to sit beside me and fed me a Large portion of succulent roasted meat they were all eating. It was so good and tasty. If he hadn’t been feeding me slowly I would have wolfed it down.
Once we had all finished the meal. Kein stayed at the table to do something.
I knelt by the fire under my blanket, leaning on Christof, sated and sleepy.
“We owe you, cousins, for sharing your kill with us,” Damien said as he watched Kein working.

The other men acted like it was no big deal, catching dinner had been easy for them. However, they were obviously pleased when Evan pulled out several stones to give them. I smiled because their time in the mountain had made them quite rich.
I couldn’t quite tell what Kein was doing at the table, but he seemed very focused on the task. From where I sat he seemed to be etching something very delicate. Kein finished whatever he was doing with a triumphant sound and handed a small brown strip to Damien.
“Perfect,” Bane commented, “as always, Little Brother.”
Damien approached me and I could see what it was now. A long strip of one inch leather carved with their symbol five times. It looked like the tight fitting choker necklaces I’d seen at the flea market back home.
The men surrounded me for a moment before Damien spoke.
“You have been cleaned and fed, slave. Despite your attitude, you have been treated well by us. We are putting our symbol on you and will protect you as long as you follow our rules.”
The leather was tied securely at the back of my neck.
“Will you behave for us now?” Damien asked.
“If you do not, you will be punished. You are an owned slave again.”
I looked up and Kein stood beside Damien, he nodded to me.
“Yes, Master Damien,” I told him softly.
My men were happy to see their symbol back on me. To be honest, I was glad to be wearing it again. This mark and these men meant home and safety. The two times I had been separated from them had been very difficult. NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
I was pulled to stand and escorted to the sleeping room. The other men took a side of the bed and we took a side. I was settled between Bane and Kein. It was so comfortable and I felt safe, I dropped quickly to sleep.
