Tempting Rever Page 41


“Enough,” Zalk ordered. “Present, Argis Ral. Your honor is not an issue. Proceed.”

“Talk,” Ral ordered the guard, forcing the Zorn to his knees before Zalk. “Tell him the truth now.”

The petrified guard refused to look at Rever. His mouth opened but nothing came out. He visibly swallowed hard, muscles working in his throat. His mouth opened again. “I plead forgiveness, Argis Rever. She teased me until I couldn’t resist her. She—

“Shut up, you idiot,” Tina snapped.

Rever frowned, studying the guard for a long minute before his interest shifted to Tina. She glared at Rever with her arms crossed over her chest but she was looking a little paler than usual.

“Don’t look at me like that,” Tina snapped. “This is your damn fault. You fuck me, drag me to this backward-ass planet, and the only damn conversations we have are about how you want to mount me like I’m a damn animal. You’re the dog, not me. All you wanted was to fuck me over and over. I’m a woman with needs that you didn’t meet. I like talking and we’ve got nothing in common.” Rever’s eyes narrowed but he didn’t say a word. Brenda was thinking up some words to say. She opened her mouth to tell Tina what a bitch she was but Coto gripped her shoulder, shaking his head no at her when she looked up at him. She frowned but closed her mouth, holding still. Her attention returned to the center of the room.

“I confess,” the guard on his knees growled. “I allowed the human to mount me.

She took me inside her body and it felt so good I could not bring myself to lift her off my lap. I spread my seed into her body.”

The room went eerie silent. Brenda saw shock on many faces when she glanced around the room. She wasn’t surprised in the least that Tina had screwed the guard. She looked at Rever to see his reaction. He actually smiled as his gaze met Brenda’s. This is really good news that Tina is a slut judging by Rever’s reaction, she thought. Brenda bit her lip, waiting to see what would happen and hoping that something good was going to come out of this revelation.

“She broke the bounding agreement first,” Ral said softly. “Tell Zalk when you allowed the human your seed.”

The guard was staring at Rever and he looked confused. “It was the first day that Argis Rever returned to work. I had guard duty in the backyard and she came out, dropped her clothing, and went to her knees before me taking me inside her mouth. I couldn’t tell her no when she ordered me to lie down for her. I wanted her.” He paused.

“My regret, Argis Rever. I have shamed my family and I have shamed my service to you. I deserve the harshest death but I plead for quickness on the condition of no fight.” Brenda wondered what the hell that meant, totally confused. Coto leaned down.

“It’s a death sentence to mount someone’s bound. They fight to the death. The younger male knows Rever will make him suffer for hours if he wishes to take his time killing him. He is offering to not fight back if Rever will just snap his neck quickly.” Rever took a step toward the kneeling guard. The frightened Zorn lifted his head, his eyes closing. The men holding Rever’s chains released him so he could walk to the other man. Brenda opened her mouth to ask Rever to not kill the guy but before she could say a word, Rever spoke.

“I won’t kill you, Olt. I punish you worse by not offering a challenge and giving you Tina. I concede my bound to you. Take the Earth woman and go freely.”

“What?” Tina screeched. She glared at Rever. “You can’t give me to him. He’s nobody. He was just fun to fuck a few times and he’s not even that good at it. I just did it to get even with you since you were hot and bothered over that fat-assed freeloader you let stay in our house. I saw the way you looked at her.” Rever was still grinning. “Zorn law, Tina. You offered your body to another male and you let him spread his seed inside you so you belong to him now.” Zalk gave a nod of his head. “The law requires the males to challenge for a bound and Rever has conceded. You are now bound to Olt. Go now with your bound.” Zalk issued the order to the shocked guard. “Take your bound away now, Olt. Go and know gratitude of Argis Rever’s generosity since all are well aware that you would have died in a challenge.”

“No damn way,” Tina tried to fight her way to Rever but his brother kept a good grip on her arm so she couldn’t get near him. “Rever, damn you. Don’t let him take me anywhere. You brought me to this God-forsaken planet. You can’t just give me away like a damn puppy. You’re the fucking animal.”

Rever crossed his arms over his chest. “He will cherish you.” His grin was still wide. “The next male you offer yourself to be aware that if you are as pleasant to Olt as you were to me, he will give you away when the male challenges for you. Have a happy life.” He grinned at his brother. “Hand her over, Argernon. She has a new bound.” The brother, Argernon, who kept hold of Tina, grinned back at Rever. “I am happy to hand her over.”

Olt quickly rose to his feet still looking stunned but also relieved that he wasn’t being killed. He moved fast for Tina. Tina glared up at the large guard.

“No. I’m not yours.”

Olt growled. “Come now.”

Tina glared. “No fucking way. It was just a few quick fucks. I am not going anywhere with you.”

Argernon released Tina. “Take her and go quickly. She’s yours.” Olt moved fast. Brenda watched as the man bent, grabbing Tina, and tossed the protesting woman over his shoulder. His large hand slapped her ass hard when she tried to wiggle off his shoulder. His other arm locked over the back of her thighs to hold her in place. He strode quickly for the doors.

Brenda couldn’t help but smile as she watched Tina being taken away. One of the Zorn warriors opened the door for Olt. Everyone in the room could hear Tina screaming at the “big ox” to put her down until they left the large chamber and the door was firmly closed again.

Brenda’s attention flew to Rever to find him watching her with a smile. She wondered what was going to happen now, almost afraid to hope for a good resolution.

Rever turned away, taking his focus from her. He nodded at his brother Ral, another nod to his brother Argernon, and then shot a grin to his brother, Vhon. Vhon laughed. Rever gave his attention back to Zalk.
