“He struck you?” said Conran. “Our bastard cousin actually dared to raise his tail to you? Just wait…”
“Wait ’til they get him up here,” said Donar.
“I was more afraid of what he and those androids of his might have done to you,” Brianne said, suppressing a sob.
“And Damara, he actually meant to make me watch him kill her. He’s a sadist. You have to be a sadist to be that cruel and enjoy it.”
“He won’t be enjoying much of anything from now on,” Donar promised. And the brothers held her even tighter.
A fluttering from beyond the tall grass caught their attention, and they saw Sir Galen and his partner rising up from where the pond was, each one grasping Kalum by one of the arms that were now manacled behind his now-human form. They flew him over to where Brianne and the others stood and set him down.
“He’s been advised of his rights,” Galen told Meline as they let go of their prisoner. “We can get him back to holding at the headquarters.”
“That’s only temporary,” said Meline. “The Spires will be arranging other accommodations for him.”
Brianne broke her embrace with Conran and Donar and stepped forward. “Before you process him any further,” she said, “I’d like one last word with Cousin Kalum.”
She took another step to put herself in front of the defeated hunter. Kalum glared at her without remorse. Brianne looked him up and down and noticed the reddened place on his arm where, she guessed, Damara had gotten back a little bit of her own. She was pleased to know it.
“What do you want, human?” Kalum growled.
Brianne replied, “Remember what we were discussing earlier about natural selection?”
“What of it?”
“THIS!”
And Brianne, with a sudden, savage speed and fury more like that of a dragon than a human, brought her fist from out of nowhere and delivered it hard across Kalum Quist’s jaw with a crack that made Donar and Conran flinch. Their cousin sailed back and landed with a hard thud on the grass.
Brianne, nursing her aching hand, went back to the brothers, who looked first at her pained but satisfied expression, then at their dazed and stunned cousin lying on the turf, then at Dame Meline and her fellows, who seemed wholly uninterested in pressing any charges against the human scientist for her act of retaliation.
“Today, I think,” Conran said, “Brianne has just become an honorary dragon.”
The brothers put their arms around her again while Kalum tried to stand up, only to collapse back down onto the grass, thoroughly routed.
EPILOGUE
The day ended with Damara the cralowog being hunted one last time—not for the kill, just for one more capture. She insisted on hunting the cralowog herself, and the Knights brought Burton and Sondra to assist her. Donar and Conran, feeling responsible, were intent on helping her, and Meline, feeling responsible for all of them, accompanied the hunting party.
Damara led the lot of them on a merry chase through a section of forest and then into another open field. Donar and Conran went to dragon form and flew ahead while the three scientists took the point. They managed to get the animal surrounded, with Meline bringing up their flank. Brianne’s heart went out to Damara, who had been harassed and hounded so much, before firing the shot that tranquilized the beast from Torado IV and brought her down.
As Damara lay slipping into unconsciousness, Brianne crouched by her and put her head on the animal’s side, feeling Damara’s slowing breaths, promising Damara from her heart that this would be the last time.
Brianne and her assistants returned Damara to the habitat, which was newly secured against both incompatible organisms and sentient and artificial intruders. Once Damara was settled and given some time to acclimate safely to her surroundings again, the male cralowog was brought in from the Interplanetary Menagerie to join her.
The two animals did not mate right away. Brianne was in no hurry. She would give them all the time they needed, and she and Burton and Sondra would keep a careful watch on both of them while letting nature take its course in the way it rightfully should.
Elsewhere on the Quist property, other mating proceeded—or continued—with much greater alacrity.
In the mansion, Conran and Donar immediately moved Brianne into the master suite with them. Each night, Brianne left her colleagues to take shifts monitoring the cralowogs while she retired upstairs. And each night, she found Conran and Donar waiting for her in the master suite, naked and very, very erect. She stripped naked—or, as often as not, let them strip her—and long into the night they had their way with her as only dragon men could.
Brianne Heatherton had loved nature her whole life. And in the arms and the bed of Conran and Donar Quist she found the part of nature that she loved best, several times a night and a couple of times more every morning. From that time forward, nature was very, very good to Brianne.
