The Fortress

The next day, Sirius came to the spare room early to check on Mary.

He made sure she was recovering at the most optimal speed with focus on her internal organs. After, he gave her another fruit bowl for breakfast.

"Food is another source of energy to help you heal faster. This is all yours."

Mary quietly took the bowl. He felt the eyes of the other animals on him so he cleared his throat and straightened his back.

"The food for the others will be here soon, so please don't look at me like that."

As soon as Sirius closed the door and left, Kiki giggled and the twins tilted their heads simultaneously.

"He misunderstood us just now~"

"I'm merely amazed at how powerful he is." Eden shrugged. "At least now we know we'll get food too."
