They stood together by the water until Rhianna finally quietened, a few hiccups echoing around them as she slowly calmed. When he was sure the worst of this moment of grief was over, he began to speak, telling her of a time long past that he had never shared before.

"You are not the first to perform that spell, Annie. When you were but a babe in arms, our mother was put in a similar position when one of her own broke a law so taboo it could not be left unpunished." He paused, his mind sliding into the past. "The funny thing is, I couldn't tell you what that law was, but I can remember the punishment clearly. I knew what you planned to do at the compound and felt the same sense of foreboding as I did when our mother exacted her justice."

His words captured her attention and Rhianna pulled herself up a bit straighter. Her heart felt as if it was in a million pieces and she missed Caleb's touch so much. Their bond was still closed to her, though it was open on her side. It was he who did

    "It is nothing new," I snickered. "After all, I've been working with you for a whole week." This insult was compounded by the other five girls snickering at the jest. Aya didn't get it and Katrina was undoubtedly laughing on the inside."I'm going to get you," Fabiola ground her teeth."Come on," I sighed to Fabiola, "it was a joke meant to give a little levity before charging off to your days.""Well, don't mock me," Fabiola snapped."But it is so easy," Paula giggled. Fabiola turned on her."Enough," Katrina demanded gracefully. She handed out assignments and the group departed. Aya had my job from yesterday. She also had Katrina's Nerf gun. Seconds after the first incoming bolt, Aya decided she loved working at Havenstone. After my fellow Executive Services sisters discovered that I had a secondary gunner, they began to triple team us in true Amazon fashion.Aya countered by building a fort using sofa cushions. She'd also scamper out and round up spent darts every time her work que

    "That must be some rapport," Loraine giggled. "She sent you two perfumed letters." Oh, that would be her and her sister Nadia. I could read between the lines without opening the envelopes. 'Sorry that my sister joined us last night - unless you don't mind' from Ulyssa.'Sorry for interrupting you and my sister's date - unless you didn't mind,' from Nadia. Basically, they wanted me to date Ulyssa and keep coming by for 'accidental' sex with Nadia in a three-way. I'm a great lover - lousy boyfriend. They were sisters. There was no way sibling jealousy wouldn't destroy this relationship. Of course I'd continue to date them. I'm a pig.Aya came out, joyously skipping my way. I held up my hand for her to halt."Aya?" I began."Yes," she gulped."Can I ask you for a favor?" I questioned."Okay." Aya was cautious."Aya, I'm going to be pretty much busted for the rest of the week," I began - she looked crestfallen. "Could you be my help-mate through Friday?""If it is okay with Mommy," she pl

    Desiree didn't argue. She nodded to the security detail ladies and they took Yasmin away. She shot me back a few worried looks before she rounded the corner to the elevators. The Executive Services group was looking at me. I was totally taken aback by Buffy being hellishly pissed at me. Okay, maybe not.A senior member named Rosette came to me first. She patted me on the shoulder which made me wince."Is there any place on you that doesn't hurt - besides your face?" she inquired."I think Elsa avoided hitting his cock and balls too," Desiree muttered."Elsa!" Buffy screeched."Yeah," Desiree kept interrupting me. "She beat him with a spear before choking him out.""We have to do something," Daphne declared. Five of the six new girls were present."No!" I insisted. "I haven't see you ladies fight, but I've seen Elsa and that is not something any of you want a part of.""You fought her," Violet stated."I didn't pick a fight with her, believe me," I countered. "Trust me, she's a cyborg

    They had been in such a rush to reassert their superiority they had forgotten to engage their brains. In hindsight, what was I going to do? Fight them all? Make a break for it? Had they calmly exerted their authority, I would have acquiesced. I would have clearly embraced that option. Once they enjoined violence, they had backed me into a corner.At that point, they couldn't win. They didn't have the time to break me and no amount of damage I sustained would change the equation. I knew I was going to get beaten so there was no incentive for me to do anything but fight. I had fought Rhada and Madi after all. Best of all, their irrational actions had been highlighted by their highest official.There were a few 'he should have submitted'. Those speakers weren't convincing anyone, even themselves. Their tame males would have bowed down. Hell, they wouldn't have been in this position in the first place. With pain and blood, I was starting to make inroads. Amazons didn't have a version of t

    "He is so wrecked he can barely stand," one woman joked to another. In a flash, Desiree shot the speaker in the thigh, causing her to scream out and tumble to the ground."By all means, jump up and attack me," Desiree mocked her. "It took the male seven seconds to regain his feet. I am sure we all await your superior effort."The woman did stand back up, shrugging off assistance as she did. I doubt she was faster than me though."That's nice," Desiree continued. "You are a pure-blood. You look to be fit and excellently built. You and Cáel both have a wounded left leg. He has had the ever-living crap beaten out of him, so feel free to attack him when you are ready."The woman looked to me then back to Desiree."What? I need medical attention," the woman protested."Fine. Cáel, attack Blythe (the wounded woman)," Desiree directed."Why?" I grunted."Because I told you to," Desiree chuckled. We'd been down this road before."Ah - she's wounded and not attacking either of us," I reason, "

    "Yasmin, keep quiet and ask for Katrina," I grinned. "I'm afraid I'll have to truncate our date. Putting all these bitches in their place is going to take a while." It wasn't like they were going to beat me to death any harder. Yasmin started thrashing about, cursing and stomping on feet."Stop it," I insisted. "They will seriously hurt you.""I'm not going to let you fight all alone," she kept trying to break free. I had to keep backing away from her in order to delay me being totally surrounded. Two Amazons slammed Yasmin face first into the mat."Oh boy," I muttered. "This is going to be a tad harsher than Rhada and Madi.""Wait," one of them called out. "You are that male?" OKH."I request a clarification of that question," I replied. OKH.One turned to another."I can't believe we missed this. The male speaks our tongue. It can only be Cáel Nyilas," she said. OKH."Does this mean you are not going to beat me into the earth?" I hoped. OKH."No. You launched an unprovoked attack ag
