Helevorn's Sucess - Part Two
Helevorn stroked Hele'nysar's head fondly. It had been nine months or so since the drakkin had been born. Now he was well-trained. He attacked when the wolf-shifter said, did not when he was not told to. He used a litter box - thankfully - and guarded his trainer loyally. He also seemed to adore his trainer.
He was also a fierce little creature. Helevorn had been making the little beast balls of tough hide. He went through about three a moon's cycle. Still, the wolf-shifter did not mind. It gave him an excuse to bring the drakkin out and steal from farms at night.
Hele'nysar growled a warning and Helevorn looked up. He saw Ten'oio leaning in the doorway. With a soft word to his drakkin, he looked evenly at the leader of Khila Silae Dungortheb.
"He's officially an adult, I am to believe?" She said, looking at the curly-horned, spined and deadly creature.
Helevorn nodded. "Yes, and well-trained." He said gruffly.
"So I've seen." The vampire agreed.
The wolf-shifter grunted in surprise and she laughed. "What, you don't think I would let my only drakkin out of here without supervision?" She asked and laughed more at his expression. "You have done a good job, Helevorn, and he is a good beast."
The wolf-shifter gave Hele'nysar a scrap of meat. "What do you want, Ten'oio?" He asked wearily.
She smiled cruelly. "I have gotten news that the Arena on Rileikoul is about to open. For drakkin. I believe our little prize here might win a few." She said.
"Fights to the death?" Helevorn asked, his eyes narrowing.
"No, of course not!" The vampire replied, shaking her head. "I would not risk him in such things. Still, he seems to be rather lucky."
"No death-fights." Helevorn said firmly.
"I agree." She answered, looking at Hele'nysar as he gulped down the scrap of meat. "He has turned out very nicely indeed. Keep up the good work, Helevorn." She said and then she was gone.
Helevorn glared at the doorway. "I hate it when she does that." He muttered to Hele'nysar who simply whined for more food.
