It felt strangely satisfying to be escorting the male and young female back to Asteraia. Cuirass wasn't sure he'd like the whole being downgraded to just a thief instead of like attack dog or whatever he was being called when Pine ran Iromar, but hey, it was turning out to be a little fun. Maybe he could get used to this, after all. He watched the two like a hawk, figuring they would try to make a break for it but he'd already zeroed in on the male's weakness. He chose to bring his daughter with him. Probably not the smartest move he could make. If he even thought about escaping, all Cuirass had to do was pin her down and threaten her pretty little head and the male would crumble like tissue paper. It was all rather exciting when he really thought about it. Made him want to almost tempt the male into doing something so bold and stupid, just so he could play his part dutifully and watch the male squirm.

What was his name again? Cuirass was sure he'd used it when he was stealing him but he seemed to have forgotten it. Oh well, since he was planning on doing some more steals soon enough, it shouldn't matter too much if he remembered their names. Then he could get a pleasant surprise if he ever stole anyone more than once or something. What fun! Oh, he was enjoying himself far too much now. He wondered if Bel would be proud of him. He knew she had that little Demon side to her that secretly loved chaos just as much as he did. She was just better at hiding it while he had way too much fun flaunting it. He eyed the pair as they got closer to the borders, sure that someone would want to come harass his prize. Alas, he didn't know the male who chose to make an entrance but the words were bitter sweet enough to bring a small smirk to his face. So it seemed the younger male was also good at picking out someone's weak spots.

He heard the male start growling in response and he chose that moment to move a little closer, coming up along the other side of the young female as if to prove his point, his voice low and smooth as honey. "Oh, let's not start off our little get together with such harsh words. Here we are, just getting to know each other. Play nicely now or someone might get a time out." His gaze lingerly boldly on the female when he said the word "someone" hinting all too obviously who he would be targetting if the male got out of hand. His eyes gleamed daringly at the male, challenging him to make a move. He licked his lips slowly. "Wouldn't want to tempt me on an empty stomach, right?" If the male didn't know what Cuirass was in nature, then he would certainly be getting a hint now, even as Cuirass turned his gaze on the female who was approaching. He knew instantly that there was something between her and the male. He didn't know her either but she had a temper. He could see that from a mile away.

She eyed the female almost with instant loathing, though the young female didn't seem to know her at all. Then her accusing words were thrown at the male and Cuirass couldn't help but laugh. She thought they were mates! How hilarious! He let the male say his piece, confirming what Cuirass had already guessed by their similar scents. His tail lashed around his flanks in humor, poking his bottom lip out in a pout as he glanced between his female pack mate and the stolen male. "Aww, this is really tugging at my heart strings, guys. You two are meant for each other, I just feel it. So much anger, so much emotion. It's riveting! I just want to bottle you two up and carry you around with me for good luck! On second thought, maybe not such a good idea." Dismissing the idea with a shrug, he turned to the male he stole, meeting his gaze with a shit eating grin. "So tell me, what do you bring to the table? Anything helpful? I'm all ears, really."
