"Give me ten minutes to make myself presentable," Jessica said, heading for the door with new determination. "I'll meet you at the administrative building."
She paused at the door and looked back at Satou. "And for the record, if she tries anything inappropriate, I'm not going to be diplomatic about it. Demon lord or not, you're mine—ours," she corrected, glancing at Lyra. "And I don't share with predators."
She left before either of them could respond to that fierce declaration.
Lyra watched her go with clear approval. "She's got spine. Good. We'll need it." She turned to Satou with a more serious expression. "How do you feel? After last night with Jessica, I mean. No regrets? No concerns?"
"No regrets," Satou said immediately. "It felt right. Natural. She's important to me, and being with her like that... it only made that feeling stronger."
