you have to help her. Move back. We will take her to medical. Both of you may follow us. The taller of the two men said. The one kneeling next to River bent and lifted her gently into his arms. River moaned again letting her one of her arms reach around behind the man while the other moved over his chest. Torak. Please, Torak. River whispered before closing her eyes. Star began crying as the taller of the men placed his arm around her waist. Leaning on him, she sobbed as he escorted her and Jo out of the room. Jo moved to stand on the other side walking so close she was practically touching him. She ll be alright, Star. You ll see, baby. River will be alright. Jo kept saying over and over as Star sobbed into the side of the one security guard. Chapter 21 Torak stood near the doors of the huge room the men had been escorted too. He waited as his brothers and father moved into position as well. They would cover every exit to ensure Tai Tek did not escape. As the performers filed onto a make-shift stage the lights lowered. Dozens of scantily clad women appeared on the stage and began dancing. Torak never took his eyes off Tai Tek. Do you have anything? Torak asked Manota. Nothing yet. It shouldn t be long before the bastard tries something though. Manota responded. What about you, Jazin? Nothing except if Star finds out about the women in here I will probably be dead by morning. Jazin said letting his eyes roam over the crowd. Several of the females are identified as belonging to Tai Tek s house. I am not sure I like this. I would not put it past him to threaten them with punishment if they did not do as he told them. Ajaska responded. Manota. Can you identify the group of men who just entered through the east entrance? Those doors were to have been sealed. No sooner had the words left Ajaska s mouth than shouts and screams could be heard. Laser fire began filling the room as the group of men coming in through the east entrance started firing up at the ceiling yelling for everyone to lie down. The dancers began screaming and tried to run for the door they had entered through only to be stunned before they could escape. Several men in the front of the room took blasts to the chest collapsing in a heap on the floor of the ballroom. Ajaska roared out pulling his laser pistol and firing it at the men charging him. Moving to stand behind a huge pillar he fired a shot hitting one man and knocking him down. Manota, where are Kev and his men? Ajaska yelled into his com link. They are fighting a group of men who landed on the roof and another trying to gain entrance through the front. They have them contained and are on their way here. Manota responded as he came up behind two of the invaders and cut them down. Shit, two unidentified men have entered the room with the women. Torak was fighting three other intruders who had tried to circle around Jazin. Jazin had his hands full with two men. Ajaska, seeing two of his sons surrounded by men, let out a roar that shook the room. Gril Tal Mod s head jerked up, his nostrils flared with anger. He reached out his massive arms gripping the man fighting him and squeezed. The man fell limply at his feet. Turning, he bent his powerful legs and leaped onto the backs of the two men fighting Jazin crushing them under his weight. Go to the females. My mate says the females have been taken. Gril Tal Mod growled. Torak roared out in rage slamming his knife into one man s chest while kicking the knee out from another before slashing the other man s throat with a back swing of his blade. Jazin plunged his blade forward into the last man growling as he searched for Star s location on the imbedded map in the lens in his eye. Shit. Star is not with the other females. Jazin said looking around wildly for Tai Tek. Where is Tai Tek? Where is the bastard? The other men in the room quickly helped to subdue the attackers. Ajaska and Gril Tal Mod came forward shoving chairs and tables out of their way. Manota reached them just as they got to Jazin and Torak. Torak grabbed one of the rebels by the neck in a strangle hold, Where are they taking the females? He demanded in a voice devoid of all emotion. It is too late. The rebel croaked turning red as he struggled for a breath. Tai Tek will have already mated to your female and the other two have been given to the other guards as payment for their loyalty. Torak gripped the man s neck so hard it snapped. He let the limp body fall to the floor. His eyes glowed with fury. He would kill Tai Tek and every man who had supported him. He closed his eyes focusing on the map and the tracking signal of his mate and her sisters. [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ] |
