“Come.” Disseus caught the sleeve of Sebastian’s frilled shirt and pulled him along with him. Growing more certain by the moment, that if left alone, Sebastian would continue to taunt Teverius until the other man returned to take the bait. “If you wish to.”
Sebastian didn’t seem to mind though. Stumbling along for a moment while laughing over his shoulder at Teverius. Bright turquoise eyes dancing. Then he focused on the group ahead of them.
“I find your Bernus, a bit unpleasant.” Sebastian sobered, to comment.
A man who clearly says whatever he’s thinking.
It was a trait Disseus could appreciate.
“We do as well.” Nim agreed.
“Was he always like that?”
“No.” Nim said. Surprising Disseus. “He was a nice child.”
“Unfortunately, children grow up.” There was a sudden sadness in Sebastian’s voice. But before either Nim or Disseus could mention it, Sebastian walked a bit faster. Catching up to Lonnix and Almora.
Nim looked down the valley and finally saw at least part of what they had done, at the same moment the wind came up and the smell of smoke and rot filled her sinuses. The sticky sweet scent lingering there in a way that made her want to vomit. It clung to her throat. Only one thing could smell like that. Nierwae’s fortress had possessed that same horrendous odor. The scent of death and demons. A village in the distance emitted too much smoke to be from hut fires. There were spots of smoke in various directions that looked the same. Once they walked a bit down the hill, they came down the backside of the rise, she found the whole valley bottom was covered in bark like darkness. It looked like rotting tree roots with spots of pus and splitting boils. Twining over the ground. From this vantage point, it was apparent that the nearest village was abandoned. Long since, torn to shreds. “How long were you gone?” Disseus look

Please read with caution.*****"You know we're being followed, Right?" Lonnix said.Even he could sense the eyes on them. Hear the footstep trailing through the brush a distance behind and to the side of them.Oh, yes. I know. Disseus thought.And she's trying hard to stay off the road and out of our view."Think she's beautiful?" He asked Lonnix.Lonnix looked at him, behind them, at him again. Expression looking nearly as though he'd been slapped. "I thought it was a man!"Of course, you did.Lonnix ascertained his more-experienced-in-tracking, friend wasn't jesting. "If that's a woman she's well-versed."Doing well hiding from us. Now that, I agree with."Very." Disseus agreed."I've barely heard her."Only two or three steps that were less crafted as the majority."I haven't either," Disseus admitted.
Pale porcelain flesh shined in the dancing firelight. That hair pouring to her hips in a riot of wild waves. Fat curls framing the bottom of pert breasts with jutting nipples. Her shoulders tapered to the thin lines of her waist and then the flare of her hips which were so full that the only bony portion was the line which veered over the curve and down her pelvis. To the narrow dusting of red hair which guarded her woman's place.His eyes skid from that place he intended soon to be nestled up to that face. Such a pretty face.Her vivid green eyes snapping with fury. Under arching red brows which tapered to a small, upturned nose.Everything about her is petite. Disseus' eyes roved her in wonder. Recognizing the delicate but well-honed body.The body of a woman as apt to carry a bucket of water as wield a dagger.***"I'm Nim Pifh." The woman declared. Shooting Disseus a meaningful look as she added. "The Huntress.""Huntress..." Disseus murmured the words nearly reverently. His voice
"Will you come up to our chambers discuss the matter further?" Lonnix gestured toward the steps heading up to the bedchambers.A dangerous proposition for a lady indeed.Fortunately, she's not a lady. Disseus eyed the red-haired woman.Giving them a defiant look, green eyes still sparking, she swept up her cloak and aimed for the steps. Pulling her cloak back on and her hood up. Lacing it at her throat. But leaving a crack in the cloak which revealed the dark shadow of her belly button and the rounded plane of her pelvis as well as the dark crevice of her cleavage, hinting at the inner edge of the two rounded globes."I dearly hope you brought more clothes than that." Disseus murmured.A lie. I truly hope she hasn't so I can have access to that fine body whenever I wish it. The concept was quite tempting despite that he was sure he wasn't the only blackguard in this tavern that was considering such things. A glance back down over his shoulder verified that he was correct indeed.They'
Disseus winced as though she'd slapped him."You" He raged closing in again. "chose to marry that simpering weakling.""Don't you bring Baron into this." She stuck a finger in his face.Baron. A Weak name for a weak beast."You mean the man whose arms you ran to when you fled mine?" Disseus swatted her hand from his face."Yes." She hissed eyes narrowing. And small pointed chin jutting. "That Baron.""The one that died from the loss of you because he was too weak" He said the word with his face contorted in disgust. "to come find you?"So furious she was shaking, her lips tightened. "You don't know what you're talking about!""The devil I don't." Disseus snapped."I'd have torn Hell apart to find you." Disseus grated out. "Yes. We'll help you, pathetic little creature that you are. But not because I wish to help you. Because of what you'll do to repay me."The things I'll have you doing.Chest heaving, fire lit her eyes at his provocation. Enraged that he'd dare propose such a bargain
She grimaced and didn't move. Her feelings warring on her face.Staring at her with burning intensity, he didn't blink. Knowing that glancing away for even a moment could get her the opportunity to get away.You're not getting away from me this time until I'm well and truly done. His jaw tightened until the muscle ticked.He nudged her thighs apart with his thighs then lowered to kneel on the floor. Catching her narrow hips, he drug her ass to the edge of the bed. He reached up and caught her bottom jaw. Pulling it down until her eyes met his.Until she could no longer look away. Despite that her gaze was written with resentment."You'll get over it." He told her. Licking his fingertips and rubbing her opening until he felt her moisten deliciously.Tempting enough to taste.***"Disseus..." She pleaded.As though I'd stop. He snorted. Becoming only more determined at the prospect.He shook his head warningly. "Don't do that. You'll only be wasting your time."He entered her, hard.She
Her head fell forward and her gaze was hateful. Resenting him for everything he was doing to her. For everywhere his hands touched.For everything she knows I'm going to yet do to her."Hate me all you wish. It won't change what I'm going to do. Over and over...And again." He pressed his lips to the shell of her ear. "Whenever I wish."He lifted her off him dispassionately and tossed her back on the bed. "Be ready to ride a horse at first light."His gaze skid over her from head to toe. Eyeing ever bit of bared flesh hungrily.He rose and aimed for the door."Good! Leave." She lurched up to shout.He stepped through the door and leaned to talk through it before closing it. "Don't worry, Sweetheart. I'll be back later if I've more need of you tonight.""Don't you dare!""Oh, I dare." He smirked."It was lovely by the way." He gave her body a last, lingering look."Get out! Get out!"He closed the door slowly to antagonize her.His triumphant grin turned to full laughter as the first ob
Hands snapping out, he caught the neckline before she could react and ripped it down the front.Freeing her breasts and the flat plane of her belly marred only by the hollow of the small belly button. The motion making the small breasts bounce ripely.His body instantly responded to the sight of the dusky crests of her nipples on the smooth white orbs. He was tempted to stroke himself between them.I will. He promised himself. Soon enough.She hissed in fury and lifted her arm with the dagger. Making all that flesh move deliciously.He pushed her bicep back down and caught her wrist. Shaking the blade loose and kicking it away. Dismissing it as easily as he had every other effort she'd made to keep him at bay."You're a fiend.""More than that." He pointed up. "Nightfall, My Dear. You're mine to enter.""Despicable." She said contemptuously. Her lip curling derisively."Ssh." He put a finger to her lips and started backing her up to the bed as he pulled his tunic off and tossed it asi
