Chereads / The Warrior's Claim / Chapter 4 - Chapter Four

Chapter 4 - Chapter Four

"I see the Goddess Lani has blessed you Ignes. You, an untried youth who has never seen the likes of war. Compared to a warrior of my many years and knowledge that spans many, many cycles.

I also see you have an Earth female. I thought the great Ignes didn't want a female of such lowly stature? What a blessing indeed. I can see who she favors of her two Primes," Angor said with malice and practically spat the last word out as if it was something distasteful.

"Careful Prime Angor. Lani hears and knows all. Do you wish to face her wrath," Andan said gently as he moved his beast slightly in front of Ignes's.

Angor ignored the other male and held Ignes's stare as he waited to see what the younger Prime would say or do. The other male's Second was not a warrior he worried over. He was just as young and just as weak as the Prime in front of him. How dare the Goddess bless him before me? Have I not been faithful? Have I not served long enough?

Ignes held the other male's stare before he spoke calmly and with authority, "The Goddess Lani is most generous and I am thankful she has blessed me so. It is true that I did not wish for an Earth woman, but a Tnarian female.

However, how am I to throw such a gift back into the Goddess's face? I wish no ill will from our benevolent Goddess. To seek her wrath, is to seek death my friend. Let us pass and be on our way. We can discuss matters at a later date, Prime Angor of Eastern Lani."

Angor was about to draw upon his weapon when he noticed a flicker of movement out of the corner of his eyes. Several Veloo were gathering and making the Doshoua nervous. The Veloo were similar to Earth wolves with the exception of being bigger and having longer fur. They also had a pair of vicious, long fangs that can rip out the throat of a Doshoua very easily and their claws could retract like an Earth's cat.

"It would appear that our thoughtful Goddess has heard our words and is sending help to this youngling before me. How wonderful it is to be the favorite of such a considerate being. Even if the female gifted is of a primitive species," Angor said icily before he lowered his hand, turned his Doshoua around, and gave the order to leave.

Ignes watched Angor's back disappear over the horizon before glancing over at the small gathering of Veloo. They did not attack, but stood there as if waiting for him to speak.

"Thank you my Goddess and I appreciate your help. It appears the heart of our noble Prime of the East is broken. I pray that one day a strong female will melt his ice. Until then, I beg of you to keep an eye on him," Ignes said with deep respect and bowed as deeply as he was able on top of his Doshoua.

The leader of the Veloo gave a slight tilt of the head and purred loudly before setting off into the direction Angor went. As if to keep a watchful eye on him and his men.

"It appears my Prime that our supreme Goddess has heard your words and is pleased by your thoughtful expression. However, the time grows late and we must hurry. This distraction has cost us precious moments and I fear we will arrive home when darkness falls," Andan said reverently before urging his beast into motion once more.

Jennie had been silent for several hours before she started to fidget in Ignes's lap. They had been riding for hours and now her bladder was screaming at her. Dusk had fallen and she noticed that the trees were getting thicker as they went. Her mind was also trying to come to terms with the fact the man holding her didn't really want her, but settled for this Earthling female because of his Goddess's will. Which royally pissed her off and caused her heart to ache in a funny way.

Ignes noticed his mate was fidgeting more than usual in his lap and her soft, round ass wasn't helping the aching erection he had. Each time she wiggled against him, his cock throbbed that much more. All he could think about was ripping her pants off and thrusting his cock into her wet, tight core.

A quick fuck would help ease the edge, but he knew it would never be enough. Not till they reached home and even then it would probably be several days before he could get his fill. He nearly groaned out loud when she ground her ass again and he finally lost his patience.

"Woman, cease your movement. Adim is getting nervous with your constant fidgeting," Ignes said gruffly.

"Well excuse me for being human and needing to piss! I have been riding for hours and my bladder can't hold it any longer. Plus, I think my legs are asleep," Jennie knew she sounded like a complete bitch, but damn it! She had to pee and she was currently mad at him!

"Can this not wait till we reach our home? It is but a short distance now. I have pushed Adim as fast as I am able and I wish to reach our home before nightfall," he didn't like the tone of her voice and the fact they would have to stop so close to home irritated him.

"No I can't hold it till we reach your home! I have needs and right now I need to seek a private place to relieve myself," she felt her cheeks heat as she argued with this insufferable male about something as natural as taking a piss.

Growling out what most likely were cuss words that didn't translate, the male slowed his beast down and brought it near some small group of bushes before a narrow strip of forest. He got down off his mount and reached up and plucked her out of the saddle. After making sure she could stand, he pointed to the bushes and waited for her to walk over and relieve herself.

"Seriously? You think those bushes will cover me? You gotta be kidding me," Jennie complained as she crossed her arms over her ample chest.

"I do not kid my female. Either use those bushes to relieve yourself or you can piss yourself on the ride back to our home! I have run out of patience for your sharp tongue," Prime Ignes said before motioning Andan to turn his mount around and offer his mate some privacy.

Jennie was extremely embarrassed at the moment and hesitated about going to the bushes. Which was the wrong move to make. Because the male before her took that as a signal of being stubborn and reached out to grab her hand and pulled her behind the bushes.

"Be quick! I will stand here and watch to make sure nothing attacks you," he said before moving slightly to the right and kept eyeing the treeline ahead.

The brunette almost told him where he could go, but her bladder just couldn't hold it in any more. She lowered her pants and popped a squat to relieve herself. It was the most mortifying moment of her life to have a man stand close to her as she peed and even worse, she was sure the other male could hear her as it hit the ground!

While she relieved herself, she contemplated whether she could make a run for it to the trees and loose them. However, the way he was so alert gave her pause and made her re-think that idea. It was probably very foolish to take off running into a forest she knew nothing about and there was no telling what kind of predators lurked within.

Ignes kept an eye on the treeline and hoped his female finished soon. He kept getting glimpses of someone or something following them just before dusk had begun and it put him on edge.

He also tried not to remember how Jen-nay's fidgeting in his lap gave him a massive erection and he had to adjust himself twice to keep her from finding out. Her ass was soft, but well rounded. The kind you can slap and it bounces for a few seconds. It made his mouth water and his mind wander to erotic thoughts.

"I-I am finished," the brunette stammered as she quickly stood up and pulled her pants back into place.

Ignes turned towards her to guide her back to his beast when something whizzed out of the trees straight at them. He barely missed moving his mate out of the way before getting an arrow buried into his shoulder. He gritted his teeth as he pulled it out and gathered his energy to call upon his gift. The weapon the Goddess Lani blessed him with.

"Oh god! Was that an arrow? Did you just pull that out? Shit, shit, shit," she began to panic when she felt a pair of hands grab her arms and she whipped her head around to see it was the other male.

"Come Tayair, we will use the Doshoua as cover. It would sadden our Prime if you were injured now before he can claim you properly," the darker haired male said gently while maneuvering her between the two beasts and then began to call upon his own weapon.

He was not going down without a fight and he would protect his friend's mate with his life.

"How can you be so calm? Why are your hands glowing? I don't understand what the fuck is going on here! You also didn't tell me your name," Jennie cried as she watched in both horror and wonder as the male before her chanted softly.

She didn't know why his name was important, but if he died... what could she say? She didn't want to think of him as a nameless person. Specially when he showed more patience and kindness than her own "mate" did at times.

She looked over at Ignes who was still dodging arrows and noticed that his hands glowed as well. The next thing she knew, a beast of some sort sprang out of nowhere and cast an eerie blue light. It then twirled in the air before morphing into a weapon.

Now in both of her mate's hands where a pair of blades and they reminded her of some movie where the people battled with energy weapons. Kind of like lasers, but in blade form. They were bad-ass and the pair Ignes wielded skillfully, if the way he was cutting down arrows was any indication, put him in the level of badassery as well!

There was a flash of reddish light and then it was gone. She whipped her head back to the other male and noticed he brandished a type of energy bow. At the moment he was concentrating and gathering energy to make an arrow.

"Oh my... I am in the fucking twilight zone! This is to weird! Aliens with superpowers," Jennie was shocked and didn't pay attention to the fact Ignes was now in the forest fighting whoever or whatever was shooting at them.

The other male let fly a few arrows and she noticed they exploded upon impact. She could have sworn she heard screams, but really tried not to think about it.

After a few moments, the other male made his weapon dissipate and turned to look over at her, "My name is Andan Tayair and I am at your service. I shall protect you and have no fear, for Ignes returns."

She was going to ask how he knew that, but just as he said, Ignes came striding out with a cocky gate. He was covered in some kind of liquid and she really hoped that wasn't blood.

Striding across the small clearing, he reached his mate quickly and roamed his eyes over her to see if she had any injuries. Satisfied she was not harmed, he lifted her chin to meet his eyes.

There he saw a myriad of different emotions floating, but the swift spike of her sweet scent told him his battle turned her on. Smirking softly he took his mate's lips in a quick, bruising kiss. To show her who was in charge and to show her who would always be the one to keep her safe.
