Chapter 10

Fierce

I pulled a corner of the blanket over Hina’s rapidly cooling back so she’d stay warm while I contemplated our next options. This planet was nice, and this spot brought back memories of a place my father used to take me after a hunt when I was just a small boy. We’d wash the blood from our skin and clothes, the sweat, then we’d share the most tender bits and pieces from our kill, before heading home to our tribe. Those moments I had always treasured during my days as a gladiator, I had no frame of reference for much of anything out in this technologically advanced world, but I knew what happiness was, and this was definitely it.

It was extremely tempting to take the com strapped to Hina’s slender wrist and toss it away, just find a spot to make our home on this planet somewhere. Despite the hostile creatures we’d encountered so far, I knew I could do it, make a life for us here. Snarl and Fluffy wouldn’t mind, they’d have plenty of space to stretch their legs, to hunt. Then I felt a pang of guilt as I watched Snarl nudge Fluffy away from a high rock she’d climbed on. He’d never find his own mate if we stayed here, not that he’d complain.

And Hina deserved to make her own choice, to be able to understand what I said and make up her own mind. Not to mention that my brothers up on the Vagabond would always worry and wonder, I knew Ziame would forever feel responsible for my disappearance. Shit, gruff and sullen though he often was, I was willing to bet that Thorin would take it hard too if I didn’t come back. I felt a pang at how I’d purposely misled him, by keeping Fluffy a secret. He’d trusted me to find the Riho and I hadn’t told him that I had, just hid her.

Clouds were rolling in from the open plains, they’d hit up against those mountains cradling our tiny little valley, and pour their load of rain on our heads. I didn’t want to, but I carefully stroked a hand over the gentle curve of Hina’s spine, cupping her head and tilting it a little. “Hina, wake up.”

Her lashes fluttered up slowly, her dark eyes slumberous when she looked at me. “What? Five more minutes…” she mumbled adorably. I petted her shoulders, shifting my body to gently slide her off. “Sorry mate, it’s going to rain soon,” I told her, though I knew she wouldn’t understand my words; to clarify what I meant, I gestured at the approaching clouds.

She rolled to her back, her soft breasts with their beautiful brown nipples eagerly pointing at the sky. I watched avidly as she stretched, before getting up and tucking the blanket around herself, hiding her glorious body from my greedy eyes. When I looked back at her face she was laughing at me, pink decorating her cheeks, “Like what you see, don’t you?” In answer, I rumbled a purr at her that made her laugh more.
