Rose said firmly as she looked at him. "I don't even bear his name publicly, and neither does my shieldmate."<br/><br/>She pulled him into rib crushing hug as she ruffled his hair.<br/><br/>"You're bone headed, stubborn, rife with issues, and set on your own path, I can easily see how you share blood with all of us." She said as she hugged him. "Next time you play silly games like this though.. I shall take you down to the salle and push your sword skills to their utmost." She said with a wide grin to put the 'drill sergeant look' away. "Like you're the first demon blooded I've met OR worked with. Mercenary work is one of the few areas they find acceptance."
