"You guys ever get the urge to roll around in the mud and stuff?"
Abaddon and the other wives glanced at Bekka with helpless expressions.
Sera patted her on the stomach.
"My love... why would we ever want to do that?"
"It just, I dunno... it seems like a super fun thing to do."
"We have enough problems with you leaving crumbs in our bed; we'd prefer it if you did not start adding dirt and earthworms to the list."
"For your information, I don't even eat in our bed anymore."
"We know you finally started putting towels underneath yourself. We just don't say anything about it because we're proud you started trying to be responsible."
Bekka rolled onto her stomach with her face away from the rest of her lovers.
"...Fuck you guys."
Her partners would have laughed if they didn't believe it'd upset her further.
Abaddon glanced beside himself at Tatiana's resting form.
He gently took her under one arm and placed his forehead against hers.
