Chapter 49
He wasn’t just listening. He was absorbing, taking in every word like she was preaching a sermon imparted by the Goddess. The intensity in his eyes radiated his need to know. The range of emotions - from anger to sorrow - marring his face show that he wasn’t just listening, he was connecting with her, feeling these things with her, and it was that very action that drew her physically closer to him, because emotionally, she was already attached.
Her throat flexed a hard swallow, and she threw out the biggest confession of the night, “I’m not with the hunters because I want to be.” Admitting it to herself, in her head, was one thing. Confessing to someone outloud, someone she hadn’t known very long, was foreign and unnerving. “I’m here because I’m convince

In the bedroom of the diplomatic residence, Greg pushed her up against a wall, mouth sucking and teeth nibbling on her cheek, her jaw, her neck as his hands roamed her body, bolder than before. Her moans came out louder as he trailed down her cleavage, mouth snuck underneath the garment and the padding stitched to it before his tongue greeted her peak with a wet, seductive stroke.She groaned, eyes rolling back and hands clinging onto his hair for support when her legs gave way. Her underwear was already drenched as heat radiated in waves from her body, need coursing through her veins and making her lower region throb.“You should know,” he began in a low rumble, kissed her breast, and continued, “I’m anything but gentle when it comes to this.” With that, he took a nipple between his teeth and bit, letti

The next day did not start with good news, nor did it progress with any.Abbott and his deputy were dead, as were many others who were exposed to the poison. Only three of the sixteen archers survived the coma, with the doctors reporting that the survivors’ ability to make a full recovery remained uncertain, thus they were under strict monitoring. Hazel survived, but her condition remained under supervision as well. And she was awake for not more than four hours a day, as were the three archers. Even during their short hours awake, they weren’t completely lucid enough to recall the events from the other day.The next Chief Archer had to be appointed, but the discussion and vote wouldn’t be for another week, so Valor was chief in name, Sush and Patterson were co-chiefs behind the scenes. Everyone, including the entir

Seated side-by-side at a circular lunch table that they weren’t sharing with anyone else, Sush disclosed - in hushed tones - of Kenji’s “joke”, and Greg decided the wimpy eastern octopus was humorous enough to not get himself killed. This time.Fear his cousin? Please. That softie’s rules were so much less rigid and so much more standard and boring than Greg’s own ever had been.Sush promptly added, “I’m only telling you this to come clean. Don’t spread this around. For all I know, he either told me that in confidence or during a temporary lapse of judgment.”“Well, that’s his mistake, isn’t it?” Greg smirk

In the evening, the official training of the chameleons and octopuses in preparation for them to replace the archers at the borders began. They used the simulator in teams of ten - the maximum number of archers stationed at a particular location. They’d gauge their competencies from there and would eventually work their way down to three - the minimum number on any given team standing guard.Greg was in the control room behind Patterson, Sush and a recently called-back Millicent who’d been at her post for two days before the massacre happened. Their eyes trained on the chameleons armed with guns and knives in the simulator, dodging and running.One of them couldn’t run fast enough along the running belt making up the floors and slammed against the simulator wall. A team of octopuses went next and their perform

Greg scooped her from the chair and fastened her around his hips as his hands on her butt pinned her to him, bringing her to the wall, where he locked the door and was immensely grateful for the lack of cameras in this room as she began grinding his steel-hard rod.Holding her still so he didn’t cum before he wanted to - before she did, his fingers and thumb moved skillfully along her shirt, unbuttoning from the top and her black lace bra got him even more aroused. He never thought he had a thing for lace lingerie. And he didn’t. Not until it was on her.Undoing the front clasp, he devoured her softness and his tongue toyed with the hard peak as she gasped, jerked and moaned, fingers in his hair pulled at his locks at delicious intervals.His hand headed south, u

In the midst of brainstorming with Patterson, Millicent, and Jason, Greg excused himself from Sush’s side with a light kiss to her temple when he received a link from Nash Beaufort.‘Your Grace, I hope I’m not interrupting.’‘If you were I would have blocked you out. What is it, Nash?’‘This is about the inventory of poisons you requested a few days back.’The poison room on the archers’ floor had been infiltrated and destroyed, most poisons in the inventory gone, and their supplier was facing a shortage, so Greg offered to help stock them back, sending the list of substances that the hunters needed to Nash.

Greg wasn’t sure. He was definitely sure how he felt about Sush, but he wasn’t sure if those feelings would be accepted by his little sweetheart. Still, he wanted to give this a chance.Sush was more nervous about meeting the pup than she was about meeting the other octopuses on her first day as a hunter-in-training. She unpacked her clothes the previous day and had been going through her options so long that she and Greg didn’t have time for sex.Greg was on his routined call with Enora as he watched Sush swap one shirt for another on the bed, pondered, then swapped the pants for another pair of pants. Brows arched deep like she was trying to crack a code, she then brought the shoes she intended to wear and placed them at the foot of the bed, then swapped the shirt again.

Enora grinned, showing her incomplete set of teeth when her arms shot to the sky and she exclaimed, “Lionel MacDonald changed schools! Yay!”“Enora, pipe down,” Lucy reprimanded, trying not to make eye contact with any of the parents looking at her daughter either in bewilderment due to their unfamiliarity with her classmate’s name, or in amusement because their own pup had been victims to Lionel’s misbehavior as well.Another pup not far away even threw his own arms up in the air and exclaimed “yay!” at Enora’s announcement, even though he’d already celebrated the day before when their class was told the news. Only then did Lucy have the courage to meet the other set of parents’ sheepish gaze and smile.
