“I’m very glad that I don’t have fur sometimes,” Fujiwara Castro remarked as he stepped out of the shower stream so his wife could run a sponge across his scaly chest. “Makes cleanup a lot easier.”

“Well, if it means anything, I think you’re getting better at it,” Meredith said as she scrubbed away at a spot. “Hold still.”

“Hm?”

“Hold still, please.” The golden palomino mare reached out. “There, got it.”

“I wondered what that was,” Fuji said as Meredith removed the piece of oat gruel from his ear and let it fall, allowing the shower to wash it down the drain. “Jinzi’s accuracy hasn’t improved, though.”

“No?”

“She was aiming at my mouth,” the Komodo monitor chuckled.

Meredith laughed as she continued sponging him clean. “Did you get the floor clean in the kitchen?”

“Of course,” he replied. “I’m glad we arranged for the carpet to be replaced throughout the apartment. Makes cleaning easier.”

“Just like you,” and she leaned in and ran her tongue against the smooth hide over his collarbone. She smiled as he reached out and cupped her breasts. “Later, my love. We have to get to work.”

“True.” He stepped into the shower stream to rinse off as Meredith washed herself. “I was thinking of giving her honey-glazed carrots for lunch.”

“Oh, yeah. She likes those. Bit of a sweet tooth.”

“And you get to feed her,” Fuji said with a laugh as he traded places with Meredith. “See how well she scores with you as the target."
