            “It’s an abomination!” She screeches. “How dare the two of you allow such disgusting things to come to pass under this roof?"

            Lance eyes the woman contemptuously, though Red shivers against him. The Dragon Master’s golden eyes narrow to mere slits. She states her next words icily.

            “If you find our company so distasteful, you had better quit yourself.”

            The old woman foams at the mouth, spittle flying from every corner of her mouth as she spits out her next words. “You should all burn! Bedding children indeed! Why, he’s not even eighteen!”

 

            “I believe the age of consent is ten in this corner of the world. Who are you to judge us? And how dare you try imposing foreign customs on our League!” Red snaps, needled to the quick.

            How dare this bitch come and call his relationship with Lance immoral!

            Lance feels Red’s hands fisting in her cloak, and smiles, a cold, cruel smile. Then she moves, quiet-quick.

 

            “Take your traditional values to the next world then,” She says, one breath, two, and then the woman’s throat is slit and her lifeblood stains the floor as Lance strides back to her husband’s side.

            Damned bitches… marriage should only be the business of two people – the husband and wife themselves. Governmental law and religion should have better things to do, unless abuse or neglect is happening.

            No, she will not forgive such an affront.

 

            Red shrugs. The woman brought it upon herself, and he is a legal adult, so who – or what – he sleeps with is his own business!

            He rises on tiptoes, gives Lance a kiss, and then goes to the intercom so he can call a janitor to clean up this mess.

            Abomination, indeed...

            She should look in the mirror before condemning them.

            They walk down the hallway, and don’t look back.
