Mira blinked up at him and then at me. "Master, I think we should hear him out. Maybe we should just, you know, try it for a few months and see if the cold is as nice and pleasant as before. See if the snow still feels delightful to run on after a few months' time. A little bit of this trial and a little bit of that trial, that kind of thing."

I looked up at Sebastian, narrowing my eyes. "Really? She's already so spoiled that I can't make her hunt. You're giving her a room full of 12 bloody slaves to make her bedroom smell like lust magic all the time, too? This is bullshit. You and D are both assholes, I'll have you know."

I paused for a moment. "Speaking of Depravity, I plan on getting him back soon."

Mira cheered to my claims, and I glared at her with the same narrowed eyes as if to tell her I still disliked the idea of having her own bedroom at the Citadel.
