The Viper's bite

Chapter 8


He watched her body naturally sway from behind as they walked back to his room. Ky’an could feel her excitement and fear rising with every step. She would no longer doubt him when it came to his prowess as a lover. He moved closer to her body letting his hands roam over her hips. He felt Paula trembling. Ky’an smiled and suddenly pulled her back into his hard body effectively stopping her from walking. He growled in her ear.


“Paula”


She closed her eyes still trembling from his touch. His hands moved up towards her breasts while he nipped her ear. Paula grabbed his wrists weakly in an attempt to stop the rampant sensations running through out her body. He massaged her breasts through the thin fabric that covered them. Her head fell back against his chest when his thumbs lightly glazed over her hard nipples. She heard him purr and suddenly his arms surrounded her waist and he carried her to the door.


“Ky’an.”


He set Paula down and turned to see one of the Elder’s bodyguards waiting at the end of the hall.The two Yautjas smiled knowing what the Hunter was planning on doing with his new mate that Phi described as one that disrupted the Viper’s thoughts. “He is asking for you and Grails.”


“He is early”


“You know he hates those council meetings. He likes to cause chaos on his own ship.”



Ky’an smiled at the Yautja at the end of the hallway and then turned back to Paula who was now facing him. She looked disappointed he would not continue his assault. He watched her breast heaving from her rapid breathing. Ky’an pressed her hard against the door with his body and lowered his lips to hers. His right hand grabbed her right breast while his left gripped her left butt cheek. Paula moaned and lost strength in her body. He deepened the kiss, bending his knees and moving sensuously against her body. Needles of pleasure pricked her body and caused her to move against him. Ky’an growled against her lips and his hand found its way into her top.


“Ky’an he is waiting.”


Ky’an growled but released her lips from his. She stood there against the door looking as if she would faint. Ky’an placed both of his hands on either side of her waist and moved against her again. Paula arched her body trying to get closer to him.


“You fight well Paula.”


He pulled her to his body, waved his hand over the sensor, and the door slid open. Paula looked up into his eyes breathing heavily causing a few strands of her hair to fly into his face. The Hunter at the end of the hall made some sort of sound that sounded like the clearing of his throat. Ky’an purred and slowly set her down on her feet.


“Go inside and wait for my return.” He saw her nod but she did not move. Ky’an leaned down towards her lips.


“Paula”


What was wrong with her legs? She was so weak. Ky’an wrapped one arm around her waist and walked inside with her laying her head on his chest. He walked into the bedroom and slowly lowered her onto the bed and stared into her eyes and then his presence left her.

She heard the door close. Paula rolled over onto her side and hugged her body tightly as the tingling heat from deep inside wanted him to come back to her. What was she doing?

Jake’her was the type of Elder that needed no excuse to execute you. Either he liked you or he did not. There was no middle with him. Rah’fi usually kept his distance from his father; he was not in the liked column. Jake’her’s mate Olia refused to stay on the ship with her eldest son and instead stayed on their home world and visited regularly. Although many thought this was the reason, she left the ship. Jake’her knew it was because of Se’tra’s betrayal. Olia did not like the female. Now that Ky’an had a new mate and Grails and Se’tra were at odds, Jake’her had something to make her return.


He growled at the assembled Yautja that bowed to him. He hated crowds and attention. Grails and Ky’an stood at the doors of the landing bay watching him growl and snarl at everyone. The bodyguard rolled his eyes when Jake’her roared at the female trying to make him hold her child as if he was some Messiah. The assembled Yautja scattered and Jake’her saw his two favorites whom he called his sons, standing there smiling at him.


“You planned this Grails I know it.”


The Yautja sent to retrieve Ky’an chuckled and resumed his place on the left side of Jake’her.


“Now is that anyway for a son to treat his father.” Ford asked shaking his head.Ky’an and Grails smiled.


Jake’her grunted and walked towards the doors with them following.


“Why not bring her to see me?”


“I do not want you to scare her.”


Jake’her chuckled. “I do not growl on the first meeting Ky’an it takes several looks.”


“You never liked that pilot and you only saw part of him. I think it was his hands.”


Jake’her looked at his Hunter on his left and crinkled his brow. “Which one was that?”


“Beta”


Jake’her growled and turned forward again. “So what are they planning for me tonight?” He sounded annoyed already.


“They are planning a feast for you.” Ford answered walking beside Ky’an.They heard him groan with frustration.


They turned down the wing of the ship reserved especially for Jake’her and entered into the Elder’s room. He turned to face Grails and Ky’an.


“I want you to bring her to this feast and Grails you come alone I want happy things.”


Grails nodded. “Who would you suggest that I bring to your feast to make it festive?”


“Mya” Jake’her walked away to remove the robes he was wearing.


They watched each other without turning their heads. Se’tra would make Mya’s life hell if Grails did, as Jake’her wanted.


“You do not agree with my decision Ky’an?” Jake'her's voice boomed from the other room.


“Se’tra will not.”


“I do not care about Se’tra and from what I hear you do not either.” Ky’an was silent.


“You still hold some feeling for her then.”


“No,”


“Well then your new mate should be your only concern and let Grails worry about Mya.”


Ky’an nodded. Grails looked at the Hunter.“Do not worry Mya is very capable of protecting herself.”


Jake’her looked from one to the other then at Ford.“Beta attacked her. She damaged him but not as much as the General.”


“Where is he?”


“He is not on this ship anymore Elder.” Ford answered.Jake’her grunted and resumed removing his robes.

Grails continued to stare at the silent Hunter. “If you do not want me to take Mya Ky’an, I will not.”


“I have no concerns about you with Mya Grails and Dev’er and Car’mek would have no objections. But I know Se’tra and she will find a way to make her presence known.”


Paula must have dozed off or something because she was suddenly jolted from the sound of the bell in the other room. She struggled from the blanket and slowly got up from the bed. The bell sounded once again and Paula walked towards it and opened it without looking to see who it was. Se’tra stood there with a crinkled brow.


“Were you sleeping?”


“No I knew it was you and I wanted to make you wait.”


How dare she talk to her with such a mocking tone?
“Is he tired of you already? He never leaves after the first meal. I do not think you can handle him Paula three times is not enough for him. He would crush you. His love is complete.”


“So why did you leave? Oh, let me guess he is just too low on the power pole and you wanted more but you still want him.”


Paula could see the murderous intent in Se’tra’s eyes and gripped the pole behind her back tighter.


“He still wants me.”


“It does not feel as if he does to me.”


“He can be convincing when he wants to be. I know he wants to make me jealous that only proves that he still loves me. You as a female should know that Paula.”

“I know that he is angry at you for just leaving but the part about trying to make you jealous, I don’t think he really cares about you that much. Four months is a long time to forget someone and I think all he has left for you is anger.”


Se’tra growled at her but did not break the plane of the door. “I know that you have not felt the hard flesh of Ky’an inside of you. You could not live without it if you had.”


Paula almost dropped the pole thinking about Ky’an and hard flesh. She was getting weak.

“What are you doing at my door and why is it open."
Both females turned to see Ky’an standing there glaring at them. Se’tra moved back as he approached he seemed angry.

Paula looked up at him as he towered over her and pulled the pole from behind her back. She gave a weak smile because her body was tingling from the slight contact he made with her skin.

Se’tra growled when she saw the pole that would have been used on her if she came inside the room. Ky’an turned on her blocking Paula from her view.


“As is her right to defend herself from aggression. Do not come here again.”

Se’tra watched the door close in her face and smiled. This was not the end; Paula would know the meaning of pain.
