Orna laughed a bit at the "bondage" comment, but she knew what Jammy had meant by it. Nothing nasty. "I miss them, but I am happy to be finally living with my husband. A girl has to grow up eventually, you know. I'm also glad not to be under my parent's watch all the time. Don't get me wrong, I love my father and mother.

I think it was harder for my brothers to follow them than it was for me. Oh, and don't worry, I make sure Tran cleans his claws before entering the house."
