With a slight nod, June thought over his response. If Malcoda had taken on two humans, did that mean that they were his forever? Or was this a different kind of mating, like Nox had said? They were all male, at least they seemed to be, so that meant they could not mate and produce offspring. Not that a hound and a human could produce offspring anyway. So why mate? And why stay with them?
"Elementals cannot make children," June realized as they walked. "Why did you choose one as your life mate if you cannot reproduce?"
