Skehl caught the slight female, plucking her from a drop that probably wouldn’t have been enough to kill her unless she’d landed wrong. But he had no intention of allowing her to take a chance.

Talzec, Skye, and the others gathered close, staring at Raia with interest. Skehl looked on her with both affection and exasperation. She’d thrown her knives with skill, no indecision, only dead-shot accuracy. She’d helped his clan. More, she’d defended her mates…while putting herself in danger to do so. That was unacceptable.

You should not takes risks with your safety, he said as gently as possible.

She squirmed in his arms, but he tightened them, not willing to let her go.

I could kill you with two flicks of my finger, you know. She sighed and relaxed. I have so much training to do with you.

Arghet joined them in time to hear her continue her diatribe.

However, it is my life, bond-mate. And I’ve lived plenty in the years before I found you. I take responsibility for my own actions. I don’t need a male to save me. She glared at Arghet. And you’re welcome for saving you too.

Arghet sighed. “Talzec, this is Raia. Our mate, apparently.”

Talzec’s brows rose. “Our, hmm? So you’ve bonded both Skehl and Raia?”

Skehl saw Arghet grimace and knew his mate hadn’t gotten the permission males were supposed to get before officially claiming a female. But Talzec didn’t seem upset as much as amused.

“It was a sudden thing.” Arghet scowled at Raia tucked against Skehl’s heart, but Skehl could tell he wasn’t upset. Just baffled at how to deal with such a stubborn creature. “And she still owes me a kill.”

“Ah yes, the woman who took care of Mandy’s stalkers.” Skye beamed. “Hot damn. Another female warrior. Yes.” She pumped her fist in the air. “If we keep this up, we’ll have a whole platoon of women warriors shaking up the clan.”

“What’s a platoon?” Tattan asked. “Is it some kind of harem?” His eyes grew wide. “Or maybe some female pairing? I’ve heard some of the distant tribes have females that only have sex with other females. And they let their males watch.” He looked excited about the prospect.

“I doubt it.” Efhel shrugged. “Some boring Earther custom, probably. Skye knows many strange things we do not.”

“But we might need to know, especially if is has to do with Earther sex.” Tattan said, ignoring Skye fuming next to him.

“Oh my God. It’s not sexual, Tattan.” Skye glared up at the male. “It’s a military term. Women do fight, you know.”

Talzec bit back a grin and focused on Arghet. “Raia seems used to fighting, and she appears native to Ussed.” He studied her facial marker, which shone under the dye she’d used, then looked at Skehl, who could feel the heat building under his marker. “She and Skehl are clearly connected. Skehl has not told us from what tribe he was born before being taken by the Nasuhl. Female, do you know where you’re from?”

She shook her head. “Like Skehl, I too was stolen from my clan.
