The next couple days passed quickly. I found myself testing the others without time to consider it. Apparently having claimed four mates already had prompted the other males to press the issue. Scorpio, Riota, Akehikro, and Kide passed. As did Zarad.
I was kind of glad Cepheus failed. While he made a good enough friend he would get on my nerves too much to take as a life long mate I think. So all in all I claimed nine males as my mates. More than enough to keep me busy for the next few years.
Soon afterwards the building became a bustle of activities. Ships landed and left. Envoys met with the respective Princes and got introduced to the others. While I had been left in this room to feed and sleep to my hearts content.
