FOREST BRIDE (a gift from the river god) 47. Put my heir in her belly
"It is her right? The slave woman who's keeping your mind wrapped up, " Adrian said with a snicker. "Her what.. No.. I.. Wa.. Oh come on, " Brian said and they both laughed out loud. It was actually funny how predictable he was becoming. This woman was making him go crazy and he needed to do something about it, about her. They had important things to talk about and here he was brooding over her, a mere slave woman who was much more beautiful than any woman he had actually come across in his entire life. She was in absolute control of his mind, making him forget even important matters. Now, that was scary because he was not one to easily let down his guard. The last time he had done so over a woman he loved and still did love obviously, well you sure remember the resultant effect across his chest. He needed to do something about her urgently or he might lose his mind over her. He however had to force himself to snap out of it as there were more pressing matters at hand. They needed t
FOREST BRIDE (a gift from the river god) 48. Stop desecrating it
Arawa was breathing heavily. She just could not understand why this barbarian was hell bent on stripping her. It was a bad omen for a man to look up the nakedness of an unmarried woman. If he did, eventually he must claim her and right now, our princess dearest did not want that for herself. She did not want to be claimed by some random barbarian filth. All she wanted right now was for him to take his body off her and let her be. She was nearly pleading with her eyes. He was persistent really and that was one thing she had noted. Whatever was in his damn mind must probably be destined to happen. Maybe, his gods were superior to her. But then, Ara was the greatest of all gods and with Anula by his side, he was invincible. How then now could the barbarian over shadow her. Twice he had tried earlier to strip her bare. Twice already he had been interrupted. Arawa had breathed out in relief back then. She actually tried keeping awake to make certain that he was not coming back for her. Sh
FOREST BRIDE (a gift from the river god) 49. Tears from Brian
The look in her eyes and the way she shuddered underneath him told him everything was real. He could not believe what his lust had actually caused him, it had overwhelmed him up to the extent of raping a woman, not just any woman, he had actually stolen the dignity of a virgin in the most unruly way. What had become of him, the once lovely Brian he knew during his childhood. She was crying now and he had not the morale to continue in his venture even though he somehow had managed to retain his hard work. Curse be the third leg of he's, could it not see the situation at hand and show some remorse. There it was, embedded with her beautiful hole emitting warmth, it sure was enjoying itself but he most definitely was not. He had to do something. Slowly, he withdrew his cock from within her, he was still skeptical on whether or not she would attack him, but eventually, he let go of her hand. The very instant, her hands shot down in between her legs and she raised it to her face. He could
FOREST BRIDE (a gift from the river god) 50. Leave me be woman
It had never been the same for any of them since Arawa left. Orau lacked her companionship and Kuka well Kuka was actually beginning to drain. He withdrew to himself so much that Orau feared that he would hurt himself. He barely joined himself in training of the warriors which had been one of the few things he held dear to his heart. He took a lot of time going hunting. Most times, it did seem like he went out hunting to pour out his frustration. She had done her best talking some sense into him but it was obvious he was not going to hear anyone out. She often worried herself about Arawa and how she was faring in a foreign land. The men who had taken her did not seem to bear any good purposes for her. From their outlook and the fear in the eyes of Kuka whenever she mentioned going to rescue her step daughter did a lot to tell her that the men were none other than the very same who had taken over and ruined their village. Orau longed to step foot in that land that was once theirs. The
FOREST BRIDE (a gift from the river god) 51. Adjusting to his feel within
The touch and feel of his lips on hers was a lot of things. It felt a lot of things as well but either way, she loved it. He stopped after the first time to look her in the eyes and tell her reaction but she was doing nothing. Her eyes were fixed on his face unmoving as her hands instinctively traced her lips. He had to smile at her reaction. It was obvious she was a virgin through and through. She looked really beautiful even with the dried tears streak on her face. He should have contained his beast but her lips were still inviting him to claim them. He wanted more of her and this was his only chance before she realized and switched back to her initial brooding self. It was only a matter of time before she felt angered and resisted him. Then he might have to start afresh trying to win her booty. He leant forward and took her lips aggressively like he was actually starving and they were the only food for him. She tried to protest but all he heard were coos and groans. He explored her
FOREST BRIDE (a gift from the river god) 52. Weak and incompetent
Orau stood there in disbelief and watched her husband stare at the sword at his feet without moving an inch. Kili had been right after all, there was more than just Arawa out there to worry about. Bron stepped forward and gave a bow to Kuka who was barely doing anything other than staring. It was obvious he might not do anything to forestall their fate and that bothered her. Bron was young and wild, he had no idea anything about Wuwa of now and what had led to their establishing themselves here but, he was strong and showed a lot about his new blood. Everyone looked up to the new generation as their future. Thus, if it seemed to them that the said old generation leader had fallen, then they would gladly switch sides. Kuka was not old. He was middle aged and showed tremendous leadership skills. He was all in one to his people, both a father and a leader. He was very much a youth and had groomed them into the warriors they were right now. Orau knew better than anyone that he was the on
FOREST BRIDE (a gift from the river god) 53. Men from the capital
She was sleeping now, and all he could do was watch her. Earlier he had been skeptical about what he would be doing with her and decided to let her be. He had not gathered her closer into his arms like he yearned for. He kept lying to himself that it was what he had to do to conquer whatever it was he felt for her. He however knew within him that he was lying to himself. He wanted her but was too proud to admit it. Or rather, he was too scared to admit it. He had lost a woman before, he could not betray her for another one now. Thus, he laid back on his own side of the bed. Eventually, she gathered herself and dozed off out of weakness and tiredness. She was naked when he turned around to look at her. Elbows propped up and eyes staring intently at her, he could not help but admire her. She was more than what any man would actually desire and there she was, his for the claiming. He wanted her even more but could not bring himself to accept her. It would be better if she stayed away fr
FOREST BRIDE (a gift from the river god) 54. A beautiful cold night
There they were seated on the huge roots of a big tree. They were really sweaty and panting heavily. Orau had not felt this glad and ecstatic for a long time. Kuka had never been one to train with women and had always declined her before. They had finished their breakfast and after making sure the children were settled, picked up their weapons and marched into the forest. They did not know exactly what weapon Bron would be going for as she knew Kuka would definitely give him the chance to pick what they wielded. They left with arrows and swords and had been on it for the past twenty minutes. No one was actually willing to give up for the other as both wanted to prove to one another that they were better. It had been the sword play at first and Orau who saw herself as a representative of all things female was not willing to bulge. Several times each would see an opening but the other seemed to know just when to make a defense and would parry. It was not easy on either of them and now,

FOREST BRIDE (a gift from the river god) 85. Would you be taking her to the capital?
Brian had been in his room obviously tidying up. He had just finished his bath after breakfast as he had been really hungry after waking up. Upon his insistence, Arawa had stayed although she still refused to take anything from him. But he could tell she was hungry, her stomach still sang the hunger song before him. That morning when he had woken up and found her sneaking out of his room to get her bath, Brian could not help but wonder if she really was the same person who had been singing the previous night. She just did not show any reaction even when she returned with Booma and the girls. Arawa had become much better with handling his affairs. He was glad that he would not be needing to dismiss Booma as Arawa would be accompanying him to the capital. When she came inside, she tried not to meet his eyes when she noticed he was staring. However, he had seen her from the corner of his eyes looking worried at him. Brian still wondered exactly what had happened that drunken moment, had
FOREST BRIDE (a gift from the river god) 84. Coming of the barbarians
His hand held her still but although his eyes were open, they seemed glassy. Almost like he was in a trance. She tried to pull away. "Please mom.. Stay." he said again. Mom? Arawa could not believe her ears. He was such a grown man after all, so why on earth would he be calling for his mother like some little baby. Nevertheless, she did as he asked as somehow she felt pity for him. She sat by the bed and began observing him, where their mother was, she wondered. She recalled at the moment that since she arrived, she had not seen anyone being referred to as their father or mother. Could it be that the barbarian brothers had none. Her hands stole up of their own volition and brushed away his hair scattered on his face and forehead, caressing his forehead. He looked so peaceful as his eyes slowly began to shut. Arawa noticed now that even though his eyes were closed now, his hand still gripped her. It was not like she was planning on leaving him there but she wanted to shut the door a
FOREST BRIDE (a gift from the river god) 83. Paying home a visit
Arawa felt the need to panic and she actually did as she first brought a finger to his nostrils. Thankfully, he was still breathing and she had never been more relieved. She knew she needed to do something about his condition but she was at loss on what exactly she should do. She did not even have any idea why he was like that and had to dash off outside to seek out the one person she trusted with such delicate situations, Booma. As she ran, she could not help but notice how quiet the entire place was save for the soldiers huddled together around fires and those on the walls. This was their duty. She tried her bestest to be less noticeable. "Halt woman!!!" she heard someone behind her. It was a soldier who had noticed her and she had to turn slowly. He was there standing and his companions seated around were all staring at her. He demanded that she stepped into the light where he could see her properly. A fearful Arawa now walked out to the light where he could see her. "Oh. It's
FOREST BRIDE (a gift from the river god) 82. Excited about the forges
If there was something he dreaded most right now, it was being back with his father and getting to watch that look on his face. It was a constant reminder of what he had done in the past and this brought him guilt. Why on earth would Dorian send for him instead of Adrian. After all, the latter was supposed to be his favorite after what he had done to come short of his love. This act right now was uncalled for and he had defeated his purpose by going to get the king's order. Prepare in a week, nah, he would not even be prepared in a year if he wanted. His initial plan was to run to this place as he had, get well and return back to battle with his uncle. However, that plan had changed after coming in contact with his brother's plan. Were you thinking he had changed his mind because of Arawa, hell no. Left for Brian, even though it hurt him, he would leave her with her own kind. She was just a woman and there was no place for her in the battle grounds. Give it a period of a year or two,
FOREST BRIDE (a gift from the river god) 81. Father wants me to return to the capital
It was not easy for Bron, not in the very least as he laid down there waiting for the slithering thing to get off. He was becoming scared again and managed a great deal to keep himself from shaking. But inside his heart was pounding as loud as anything that made him really scared that the snake would hear. Bron continued biding his time and waiting for the right moment. Eventually , his time came as he had been laying down there panting heavily. The snake had gone down and gradually, he started rising up and then took his sword from the upper part . He had been really lucky as it happened that it had been crawling into its hole on the ground. Weird. The hole would not have been noticed by even the daytime as it was buried underneath the dry leaves covering the area. Bron felt angered and before the tail would finish disappearing, he braced himself, took it by the cold slimy tail and pulled it out. The speed and energy with which he had done it was all he needed and he slammed it hard
FOREST BRIDE (a gift from the river god) 80. Flouting his orders
He woke up before her that morning and spent a while watching her and drinking in her awesomeness. She was still fast asleep and luckily, it was still a bit dark. That meant that he got to watch her thanks to the light from the fireplace and torch. The reflection of the light on the few exposed parts of her skin was magnificent. It made Brian crave for her and want to touch her body. But then, he just could not do so as he needed to prove beyond every reasonable doubt to himself that he was not in love with Arawa. She suddenly rolled over and stretched herself now facing him. She yawned heavily and must have not thought that he was there. Her mouth actually reeked of some foul odour thanks to the fact that Arawa had not properly brushed up for two days now. In fact, she forgot. One would not blame her completely, in Wuwa after all, they only rinsed their mouths with water in the morning. He grimaced and quickly replaced it with a beautiful smile. Just then, she popped open her eyes a
FOREST BRIDE (a gift from the river god) 79. A crocodile in Wuwa River
It had been a while since he last came to the dungeon and somehow, it reminded Brian of the early days in which Arawa had been kept there. He had to find a way to push aside thoughts about her. "I take it that you're still thinking about the savage woman's brother, " Adrian said as he noticed his brother had stopped moving and seemed to be in a trance. Actually Brian was not aware that he had stopped moving at the moment. He seemed to be drinking in the air and quickly snapped out of it. There were important discussions and talks to be made at the moment. Adrian smiled at him as they advanced inside. Caleb alongside the other four selected to accompany the princess company were waiting patiently for them. “Gentlemen, shall we?" Adrian said as they exchanged greetings. They had managed to put up what seemed like a round table and seats. Adrian had to ask to be certain that nobody saw, of course they had been careful with that as they did it all when it was dark already. That seemed
FOREST BRIDE (a gift from the river god) 78. You make this one really special
"I don't like her here and I want her to leave with me, " she said "Her? Who?, " Adrian said feigning ignorance"The slave woman, " she blurted out "What slave woman?" he asked her, with a serious expression of confusion on his face Of course, Adrian needed no soothsayer to tell him that the princess had been referring to Arawa but then he had to make it as though she meant absolutely nothing to him. It was also frustrating her and he could tell it. Women, why would she even begin to think such nonsense as taking Arawa with her. What in heaven's name gave her such guts or possibly was she beginning to think that she was the lady of this place. It made him angry but he had to control everything. He was a man on a mission after all. "I'm referring to the woman you had been holding in your arms at the stables, " she said shamelessly. It was obvious that this was a topic she was not willing to give up on. He wondered if she had felt offended. To reassure her of his undying love for h
FOREST BRIDE (a gift from the river god) 77. Where were you Arawa?
By the time they had finished cleaning up the place, Arawa was beginning to sweat it out. In fact, they both were and had to leave the rags in the pail to have another quick bath. It dawned on Melissa that dinnertime was already close by, that being if they had not started yet. She knew that if they would be meeting up, they would have to hurry up. Bathing this time did not take them long, a couple of dips in the water and they were done. They were just getting dressed up when a couple of slaves began trooping in, Melissa smiled. Possibly, they were still in time for dinner but nonetheless, they needed to hurry up. Bearing the pails in hand, they rushed to where they would be rinsing and spreading out the rags. “Why is that place always lit?” Arawa asked, referring to where she had seen that light for days now at night. She had been curious about the place and would have taken a sneak peek had it not been for distance. The said area was seemingly far from where they were. Melissa to
