The Book of Mara Chapter 45
The thrill of sneaking around once more did have my heart racing again. I tuned into the guard's conversation, trying to figure out where they were going. It was a bit broken in translation, but a few words gave me the jest of it. They were speaking about some woman they had met. I could have sworn I heard something along the lines of 'together laid' yet that didn't make sense, at first until I realized I was mistaking the context. It was the pure masculine chuckle that gave the truth away. It was the laugh of a male boasting about his exploits. Oh. I thought, feeling my face flush as I realized they were talking about a sexual conquest. How were these people having sex of any sort if it leads to a bonding? I wondered absently as I heard them enter a door on the other side of the wall I was hiding behind. As soon as I heard it click shut, I hurried down the steps on the side of the buildings. It circled the structure until ending in a large courtyard on the far side of the castle tha

My eyes narrowed on her face, and a wicked smile crossed my own. I was sincerely going to enjoy this. Reaching up, I grabbed her hair, mimicking the hold that she had on mine. My smile widened at the look of surprise on her face moments before I slammed my forehead into her nose hearing, the fragile bone break with immense satisfaction. She immediately let me go to grab her nose. I kicked the back of her knees, dropping her in front of me. My smile was all she saw now that she was looking up at me."Never… underestimate a redhead, bitch," I sneered before shoving her completely to the ground. The other girls stepped away from me to circle their leader trying to make sure she was okay. They helped her up and, giving me a scathing look, hurried her away.I watched them leave with a smirk on my face, feeling rather proud of myself. "Oh, wow!" a voice popped up from behind me. I turned around, fully expecting another fight on my hands. Only to find a very short woman standing a few fe

I winced as the burst of translation raced through my head. He wanted me to move my ass so he could see the new whore, sex-toy, and a dozen other nasty words. I didn't quite pick the right word that he was trying to use. But the way that Ethallia turned pale and began to shake, I knew she had."Does he mean…" her voice trailed off.My eyes closed at the terror that I can feel coming from her. "They are speaking of…" I searched my mind trying to remember the word the guards had said earlier. "Lay with you."She immediately shrunk back a bit and shook her head in denial. "No, no, that can't be true. They wouldn't do that to me," she denied quietly. "My family wouldn't do that!"A cloth flashed in front of my face letting me know that one of the men had gotten brave and decided he was just going to "choose" me. Spinning towards him, I shoved Ethallia behind me and looked towards him to the stained cloth up to the guy with absolute disgust."What am I expected to do with that?" I asked in

To make matters worse was my mind was already leaning towards the bonding. My body was begging for it. Now that I was actively thinking about it the yearning for it was growing. Yet, something was holding me back, and I was slowly beginning to understand what it was. I could not handle or condone the way women were treated here. I hated the idea that I was considered less important than the males here. I was a smart, strong, and fully capable of making my own decisions. It grated on my nerves that they were wanting to tell me what to do. The Draygons in the training ring had made it abundantly clear what they thought of me, of the females in general. It was extremely hard to want to be with someone who couldn't see my worth. Though Tohr had mostly treated me with respect, even if he was bossy, I still had to refuse the bonding with him for now. I just couldn't do it. Treddian's led us inside the castle and into the large gathering area with the thrones. Tohr sat on his high-backed go

The room murmured as the woman rose, her eyes wet and she looked at me gratefully."Thank you, thank you, my Queen. Thank you," she said and reached for me."Call me, Lady Mara," I insisted quietly, feeling more confident with that title.I held my hand out to her embracing her in the hug that Erik taught me, our foreheads touching."You're welcome. What is your name?"She squeezed my forearms and began to cry some more."I am Synne," she replied. "I am so sorry... so sorry for daring to sit in your throne.""Enough with that. Go and clean up. Then come back. I will help you," I told Synne in broken Draygonian, hoping she would understand my intent.She nodded and squeezed my forearms once more than left the room. The entire entourage that was sitting around watching the proceedings stood eerily silent as they watched the woman leave.I felt Tohr step up behind me. "My little fyre. I am happy to see you are finally accepting our bonding. Though we will have to work on you challenging m

He took my arm and led me to our room. My anxious and worried mind, running over every possibility until I felt exhausted just from the exercise.The tension in his back made his anger at my 'disobedience' very evident. I was anxious about whatever he was planning and quite confused about why I was allowing him to do it anyway. Maybe, it was the twinge of guilt I was feeling for not obeying. Which was stupid. I was my own person! I didn't have to feel guilty about my decision.Except…"Except you knew the reason I asked you to stay with Nerrian until someone came to get you. We have to make sure you are safe," Tohr answered, staring at me intensely.I could see the shadow of worry in his eyes, and that made the guilt grow until it ate away at my stomach."Yes, that is the reason for the punishment, my little fire. To relieve you of the feelings of guilt and so maybe, just maybe, you'll think twice about disobeying me next time," he explained with a dark look.His words hit me hard and

The dark message prevented me from enjoying the fact that I had managed to successfully translate one of the roars that did not have a translation.There was a response to it, one that sounded something like acceptance. Maybe even agreement."What's happening?" I asked him."Treddian will finish the punishment that bastard has earned. Once done, Treddian will bring him to the dungeon to await the retribution that I have demanded for him daring to touch what is mine," Tohr growled at me, his golden eyes flashing with possession.In the blink of an eye, he was in front of me. He jerked me out of the chair and crushed me against his chest as his lips descended on mine. His kiss was crazed, demanding. His mind swung open once more, and I found desperation to remind me who I belonged to as well as making sure I was okay.I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him back, unable to deny his need. Every bit of my being wanted to do whatever I could to calm him, to ease the pain in him.Hi

"But you still wish to punish me," I stated, feeling a bit sullen."Mara, you must understand that disobeying me comes with consequences," he reminded me gently."Yes. But you said the women had to agree to this. They agree to follow the rules and so on. I didn't," I reminded him.His eyes took on a thoughtful look before he nodded in agreement."You are right," he replied. "This is something we need to change immediately. When you agree to be my mate, you will agree to obey me and only me. You will agree to give me your heart, your mind, your soul, and your body. Whenever I please it to be so,""Wait… whenever you please?" I questioned to clarify his meaning.His smile turned positively lascivious and predatorial as he looked my body over. It sent a shiver down my spine, and I could feel my pussy clench then grow wet at the idea of becoming his in such a way. I had never in my life considered myself submissive. Still, the very thought of giving myself over to him in such a manner not
