He looked down and nodded. "Yes, I serve in the Gamma Unit."

"Could we start those warrior house things? I like the idea of y'all getting more support."

Oron's heart was in his eyes as he looked down at her. "What? You're my mate I want to make sure you're fed and are taken care of."

"But not by you?" Amelia asked.

Izzy winced. "I'm not the best person to trust in the kitchen or garage or workshop..." she sighed. "Accidents happen, buttons are my weakness."

"Sounds like Beth," Amelia said, eyes wide.

"Yeah, but hers is because of a death curse, Izzy is just curious," Meryn clarified.

"I can't help it! It's like a sickness, I have to see if stuff explodes or turns color or if alarms sound... that sort of thing."

Aiden stood, reaching for his phone; he walked away as he brought it up to his ear. "Hey Sascha, you know that plan for the biometric lock on the armory?" he walked away from the table toward the windows.

Izzy looked at Meryn. "There's an armory?"

"Just, no!" Aiden shouted his hand over the phone.

Meryn wagged her eyebrows. "Oh yeah."

Micah sat back, his hands curled around his teacup. "I have never been more grateful to live in Noctem Falls."

Darian looked over to his brother. "We're gonna die, aren't we?"

Brennus clapped him on the back. "Buck up son. I'm sure six units of warriors can handle a few innocent women."

Law tapped his chin. "I wonder if those fae warriors from Aindin could create a kinetic energy absorbing suit, you know, just in case."

Darian shuddered then turned to Meryn. "No bombs, please."

Meryn eyed him shrewdly. "Only if you promise me a fae weapon."

Darian eyed Aiden whose back was turned. "Deal," he whispered.

"Yes!" Meryn hissed quietly.

"Meryn, no weapons testing near coffee facilities," Izzy said quickly.

"Duh! Nothing can happen to muh coffee. Speaking of which," she got on her knees in her chair and turned to face her squire. "Did you order our supplies?"

"As they are vital for everyone's continued good health, of course, I ordered your coffee supplies. I'm having everything delivered to Marius and he is forwarding on to Éire Danu. As time was of the essence, I did not want to wait until I could ascertain a shipping process."

Meryn sat back down and looked at Izzy. "Coffee Goddess will get her new altar supplies soon, then I, the High Priestess of Merytopia, will commence in my new morning rituals."

The queen covered her face with her hands as her body shook. When she removed them she was wiping away tears of laughter. "She is nuttier in real life than she is on Facebook," she said between chuckles.

Meryn shook a finger at her. "You're in by the way. I processed your cult application this morning. Good job passing your Geek Life test."

"Thank you, Meryn, I have a feeling that particular group will be most entertaining."

Izzy looked around. "Is no one going to ask about the whole High Priestess, cult thing?"

Around the table, heads were shaking. Amelia answered. "We just let her do whatever she wants, for the most part, it's harmless, just a confusing lesbian message here and there."

Izzy brought out her phone. "I so have to get in on this. What's the name of your group?"
