Tai started drinking the blood bags that they had, she also grabbed Taki gently pulling her over and drinking her blood that heals her some as well with the others healing herself as best as she could.
" we're coming out without weapons on us we'll leave them on the ship as long as no one comes on our ship we'll do as said by your law " Tai said as Taki's eyes go wide smacking Tais shoulder making her say ouch then a small argument between the two started when a loud gong goes off outside.
" that's one on three I'll kill you all " the man said making Tai growl softly as she exited from the doors first as they all come outside filing in lines behind her like a unit would.
Amani held onto the back of Tais uniform trying to make sure no one would divide them but she knows they will take the one who claimed leadership which is Tai against Amani's order.
A woman watched from behind the two large men keeping her eyes on Tai with a smirk when Tai watches a young man who was tall and fit around the same age as them talk to the Crimson red head that was eating Tai with her eyes as the warrior follows where she's looking then scoffs.
" your father and my father said your time line for finding your true mate is weeks away, if they are not warriors or don't pass the test of being your mate or your time line runs out then we will marry " Trig said with a cocky smile on his face as she rolled her eyes taking in Tais physique stopping on the bulge in her lower half that her clothing barely hid, making her raise one brow.
" Tani take your warriors along with Trig's to search the men while you do that for any women in the group " her father said making Tani look at her second in command then at the back row where the guard started separating the men from women.
" You're the leader " Tani said stepping closer to Tai when Amani was shoved away she and the others started fighting to stay close to Tai which had a second gong go off with a husky voice shouting that's two.
" Enough....do as they say " Tai said glaring at her mates who glared right back when Tani reaches around grabbing Tais butt with both hands moaning while she does it.
"know your places " Tani said glaring at Amani and the others who kept quiet as she trails her hand down Tais stomach then grips her bulge tightly making Tai flinch and she quickly stands straight making Tani smile.
" their clean as promised" Tani shouted back staying in front of Tai blocking the men's view of what she did in case it showed more clearly that Tai was a intersex.
" Tani take the women along with their leader to your tent and keep guards on them and take the men to the cages " he said walking away as Tai quickly steps forward looking over at her friends.
" Don't say anything...they'll be fine " Tani said pulling Tai with her walking away from the others while the female guards put weapons to the girls making them go over to a large tent that had traps and a cage like material on the outside of it.
" are you really the leader or are you one of the best fighters, you know you can let the real one give their life for your group to live that way you won't die if you fail the tests he'll have you do " Tani said walking Tai over to a cave where six guards was standing with different weapons and shields, she takes Tai inside where the large cavern thats Ten times bigger on the inside where she seen different types of test fields like the academy would have.
" this one has spikes and creatures at the bottom so if you're not impaled they'll impale you with their claws " Tani said with a smile where she saw tall pillars that got super small where one or barely two feet could fit on some while others you could only tip toe on to pass the. the jump was several dozen feet to the next pillar.
" so if I survive or die my people will be free to leave " Tai said bending over to see if she could spot the bottom and of course she couldn't see making Tani smile at how her face paled seeing no bottom.
" yes with your life plus some metal of value or good trade, this is only the first if many tests " Tani said holding Tais wrist leading her to a caged dome with weapons hanging along it also shields with blades that were sticking out along with other things like swinging blades and arrows that will shoot across the area.
" this is where you'll fight different warriors and don't worry the top six won't be picked up some warriors choose to fight which is practically a death sentence if they lose. " Tani said stepping closer to Tai wrapping her arms around Tai's neck then leaning forward kissing her lips lightly when a man's voice shouted from a few feet behind them.
" Tani ! " the young man said jogging over ready to strike at Tai who grabbed his wrist twisting around his arm throwing him away from them while flipping away on her feet making him stunned for a few seconds before getting to his feet.
" Trig, you need to stop and I can kiss who I want when I want..we are not together and nor do I plan on being with you " Tani said stepping in front of Tai where her back was pressed against Tais front when she felt something hard against her butt making her smile reaching her hand behind grabbing Tais bulge gently gripping it.
" well I think you are delusional since a meeting between our fathers choosing the date for our wedding, unless this one can stay alive long enough to make it the second week which I dought it " Trig said making Tani accidentally squeeze too hard making Tai groan and she quickly let's go leaning her butt further into Tais front.
" oh I think she'll survive and actually win, just to be fair to her and her people I'll be her watcher " Tani said making Trig frown as he sneered at them both, he then smiled and left the two there and Tai stepped away from Tani hiding her front with both hands making Tani smirk.
" don't be shy and you'll be staying inside my personal tent while my guard will stay with your group of women in the main tent, I will also send my two cousins to watch over your male companions to keep them safe so he doesn't try to force you in a fight for something happening to one of your people. I'll speak with Father after I take you to my tent so you can clean up for the first trial tonight so tell me what you need or if your health is not where it needs to be, I'm going to have the men share a tent with my cousins as long as you speak to them to make sure they don't do anything stupid where father will choose ten of them to kill for that said stupid decision " Tani said intertwining their hands which put a blush on her cheeks so she turned her head away so no one could see, she seen one of her cousins standing there in a revealing outfit and she instantly got pissed knowing what she was there for.
" ehh Tani uncle said I could spend time with this prisoner tonight, so she can convince me to be her watcher " Pia said with a menacing grin that made Tai step behind Tani which made her blush again until she remembered her cousin is watching.
" no need she has me as a watcher, I'm going now to inform my father " Tani said as Pia looked at her with confusion written on her face and jealousy went there next.
" no....you never want to be a watcher and what changes with this one " Pia said examining Tai more closely making Tai step forward where her front is pushed into Tanis back making her eyes go wide feeling how big she is.
" Y-yes I have chosen her for several reasons " Tani said pushing back on Tai making her hands shoot to Tani's waist trying to stop her from moving which she couldn't and she bit the blood out of her lip so she wouldn't moan or make any noise.
" well I'll see about that it is up to her and the elders to decide and maybe she'll be more satisfied with someone like me since I'm not sure which branch you swing on anyway " Pia said making Tani step forward but was pulled back by Tai who had a firm grip on her hips.
" interesting" Pia said walking closer to the two where an unexpected kick knocked Tai back away from Tani who blocked the attack as well as Tai did only protecting Tani instead of herself.
" well that's unexpected as well, I don't think you should be her watcher Tani for your sake and especially hers " Pia said looking Tai over then stopping where Tai quickly moved her hands to cover but was to late.
" one night or I'll tell uncle and we need her to where something that will hide that which will be hard now that I can see she's turned on which you should have known better" Pia said as Tani was thinking of a way to deny her the night with Tai.
" fine one night and you'll help Tani with her problem with the Trig guy" Tai said as Tani whipped around with a heated look that changed to a blush since Tai is thinking of her and not her own situation.
" well I'm enjoying myself with you both, Tani how would you feel if I talked Uncle into her being my slave letting her live along with her people's freedom " Pia said walking closer to Tai who held her breath as Pias hand cupped her breast then slides down her tone stomach over her bulge gently stroking her.
" Fine....one night then I'll help Tani " Pia said with a soft smile taking Tai by her hand when Tani stopped them, she pulled Tai back who gave her a concerned look.
" fine but not the first night " Tani said as she paled after saying that, usually it wouldn't bother her but it clearly bothered her over Tai.
