Berrr's Vow Page 31


Shanna relaxed, feeling fused to the large man pinning her down from her breasts to where her legs were still wrapped around his waist. Her eyes opened slowly to meet his, finding him grinning down at her, his eyes sparking with happiness. She couldn’t help but grin back at him.

“You are perfection, my Shanna,” Berrr rasped. “Perhaps you are too good to be truthful in your words from Earth.”

“It’s too good to be true and I promise you that I have a ton of flaws myself. I—” A loud knocking sounded and cut Shanna off immediately followed by the door being thrown open hard enough to make it slam loudly into the wall. Berrr’s reflexes were scary fast as he snarled, separating their bodies. He practically leapt off Shanna in the same instant that he threw some of the covers over her bared body to meet whoever had dared barge into his room. Berrr stood on his naked feet, his body tensed with his fists up, ready to do battle.

Ovoly was frozen inside the room just feet from the door. She paled at the sound and sight of a very pissed-off naked Berrr, ready to attack her. She stumbled back a step, her gaze flying to the bed where Shanna struggled to clutch at the blanket to keep her body covered and sit up at the same time to get a better view of the woman who’d rushed into the bedroom.

“I told you to never enter my room again,” Berrr snarled harshly, his deep tone gruff enough to barely understand his words.

Ovoly’s attention flew to Berrr. “I apologize but the medical center just called to inform you that Ral and his bound have come in. It is time for the offspring to be born but there are problems. He has lost all control and they need you to come immediately to calm him before he kills the guards or tears the building apart.” Berrr’s body was in motion as soon as Ovoly stopped speaking as he headed for the closet. “Tell me what they said,” he snarled. “Is the human dying?” Ovoly’s gaze went to Shanna, turning cold and hard as her dark eyes narrowed.

“They did not give more details, Hyvin, just that he was out of control and they needed you immediately. A guard is waiting outside to take you there as soon as you are dressed.”

“I will shower quickly.” Berrr almost ran for the bathroom with a set of clothes he’d torn out of the closet gripped in his fingers. “Tell them I am on my way.” The Zorn woman didn’t move until the sound of water could be heard. She stormed closer to the bed to glare at Shanna. “Did you do what I demanded?” Shanna glared back at the woman. “You mean did I tell him that I wanted him to mount you and the other women? It’s not happening, Ovoly.”

“Hyvin is leaving and we will continue with this when he is gone.” The threat was clear as the woman spun around and ran from the room to do Berrr’s bidding.

“So fucked,” Shanna sighed, throwing off the blanket as she scrambled out of bed.

She ran for the closet, quickly searching for anything to put on, ignoring the bags that were probably her new clothes. She found one of Berrr’s softer pullover shirts and what resembled folded sweatpants. She quickly put them on her body, not caring how baggy and big they were. The waist had a tie so she tightened them enough to stay on her hips. She had to bend over and roll the legs up since the guy was almost a foot taller. The water shut off in the bathroom and within a minute a dripping wet-haired but dressed Berrr stormed back into the bedroom. He paused when he saw a dressed Shanna.

“I’m coming with you.”

He frowned at her but gave a jerky nod of his head as he went for his boots and then stopped dead. He spun around. “My son needs me so let’s go now.” Both of them were barefoot as they left the bedroom. Berrr snagged Shanna’s hand and she had to run to keep up with the long, quick-paced strides he set. They passed a shocked Ovoly and a few of the other house helpers who were waiting in the hallway.

Berrr didn’t even glance at them but Shanna made the mistake of doing so, seeing four women who all glared at her as she was hurried past them in the wide hallway. Berrr led her outside into the almost blinding sunlight where he damn near threw her into the back of the waiting vehicle.

The medical building wasn’t too far from the house and the fact that Berrr’s driver had to have broken every speeding law on the planet to get them there quickly made the drive seem really short. Berrr was out of the car almost before it stopped, only pausing to shove his hand back to help Shanna out. Once he gripped her hand, he ran toward the building, dragging her behind him.

Inside all hell was breaking loose. Shanna heard it before she saw the commotion. A male roared out in rage, glass shattered, and that male shouted out something that Shanna couldn’t understand before another crash boomed. Berrr released her hand to run full out down the hallway, leaving Shanna to run after him in his wake.

“Calm down, Argis Ral,” a woman yelled. “Please, you do your bound no good this way.”

“You aren’t taking her from me,” a male voice snarled. “I will be with her at all times.”

“Please, Ral,” a very female voice said softly. “Ahhu won’t let anything happen to me. You know she is my friend and will do everything possible to make sure that the baby and I are all right. We totally trust her.”

“I won’t leave your side,” the male voice snarled. “I will never leave you when you need me, Ariel.”

“What is going on?” Berrr turned a corner and came to an abrupt halt.

Shanna damn near ran into the back of the big man, barely stopping in time. She hesitantly inched around Berrr to stare at the scene before her. Four Zorn men in leather uniforms were picking themselves up off the floor while one Zorn woman faced a mostly naked male Zorn who wore only a pair of boxer briefs. There was a blonde woman—a very pregnant human one—just wearing an oversized man’s shirt, sitting in a chair just feet from the angry, nearly naked guy.

“Ral? Look at me, son,” Berrr demanded. “What is going on?” The guy turned around and Shanna was slammed with shock. Ral and Berrr looked a hell of a lot alike and they sure didn’t look spaced far enough apart in years to be father and son. They looked more like brothers with maybe only five to ten years’ age difference between them. Her eyebrows lifted. Her gaze flew to Berrr standing next to her as she inched forward a little more to see him frowning at his son.
