on without interest, except for Thor. It had been a very long thirty hours before Leona had it figured out at first. The Canadians looked like they could use a meal. Leona made food for herself, Thor, and her mom too.
Well, the kibble texture was a turnoff, and the water was just water, but finally putting something into her stomach was wonderful! Mary gave her daughter a big hug before returning to the conversion table and Will.
Leona went to work trying to figure out how to get some of that coffee. Hot, dark, black, wonderful-smelling coffee…hmm. She looked up to find that all the wolves were looking at her.
“Sorry, guys, I’ll try to stop broadcasting my coffee fantasies to you.”
Thor gave a short bark of laughter. His eyes smiled at Leona, and she smiled back.
Thor was finally getting the hang of that specific transmission stuff. He wished that he had paid more attention to the ESP work when he was in school with Leona. He had only done it at first so he could get close to this extremely hot coed. She didn’t know it, but he had spent a lot of his time looking at her and not the Zener cards. Still, four years of experiments had changed that ESP center in his brain so that he at least understood how it should feel to communicate with one person and not another.
The last three times that he had transmitted to Arjun, Vihaan had not stirred from his spot on the floor. Thor decided to be bad, so he sent an extremely sexy memory (one of the few that had come back to him) to Leona, and watched her start to blush. She glanced around the room, and when she saw that no one else was paying attention to them, she looked at him with a smile.
“You’re doing much better with that.”
Their flirty moment was interrupted by the return of Commander Gupta. He was very agitated.
“I cannot not see how we can break in and get the weapons,” he thought, amplified by the system. “We need them desperately to even up the odds with the Supes and their werewolves.”
“I have good news, Commander,” said Leona. “I have figured out how to purchase coffee.”
“I cannot see how this is good news. I have just told you the weapons are not accessible, and you tell me you have bought coffee?”
“She really likes her coffee,” commented Thor, trying to be helpful but not succeeding.
Leona gave Thor a look and then proceeded to brief Commander Gupta. “In order to buy the coffee, I had to register myself as an administration slave of Mixaucnnhet. Once I was registered, I discovered that I could buy numbered lots from any supply of the things that have been brought on board the ship.”
“That is why you had me transmit the lot numbers to you,” thought the commander.
“Correct. After I had those lot numbers, I bought all the weapons that were in those lots. I also bought some other random stuff so that the system would not isolate that I was purchasing only weapons,” said Leona. “Then I rented a storeroom near here, to move all the items into.”
Thor was smiling his big wolf-dog smile at her. “You are so clever!” he thought.
“Was Mixaucnnhet rich, then, to afford all of that?” asked Arjun.
“He was well-off by their standards, but no, he couldn’t afford all of that,” said Leona.
“Then how…?” thought Thor.
“Well, the Supe that owned our COBRA guys was getting tired of feeding them for very little return. He had them up for sale as untrained werewolves with an option for agricultural use as, ahem…feedstock.”
Leona cleared her throat. All the werewolves stood up and started growling, even Thor.
“Hey, guys, settle down! I didn’t like that outcome, so I bought the COBRA lot. Then I reclassified you and your men, Commander, and advertised you for sale as ‘Thinking Converted House Servants’ at a hundred times the price I paid for your lot. I also put Thor up for sale as well.”
“You did what?” Thor asked incredulously.
“Turns out, I sold you all. I have ten days to
