Ral's Woman
Page 20
Ahhu showed them into a new exam room. Ariel watched the woman walk to what looked like a computer. Ral shut the door firmly behind them, closing the three of them in the room. Ral spoke to the woman as she worked in front of the console. Finally Ahhu turned to face them.
“Can you understand me now?” Her eyes went to Ariel.
Joy filled her. “Yes!”
Ral chuckled. “We can understand you too. I’ve missed your words.” He grinned down at her.
“This is a program of the ear device we took off you,” Ahhu explained. “The conis is running it for us. We haven’t worked it out fully so we don’t have a new implant to give either of you yet but in here you can talk.” Ral’s eyes jerked from Ariel’s and glared at the woman. “Damn it, Ahhu. We need to be able to understand each other at all times. It has caused us problems.”
“I can copy the program so it can be run in your home in a room to communicate. It is tricky to try to implement a foreign program into our implant translators. It won’t read it. The only reason it works on the conis is because it can run most any program.”
“Conis?” Ariel said softly.
Ahhu pointed to the computer device. Ariel nodded.
“Got it.” She eyed Ral. “Do you have a conis at home? I don’t remember seeing one.”
“I can get one.” He eyed Ahhu. “Leave us please. Get me a copy of that program.
Tell Abroo I need a conis immediately to take home with us.” Ahhu hesitated. “While you are here I need to run more tests.”
“No,” Ral snarled.
“Your father has ordered them, Ral. He is concerned greatly.” Ral snarled again. There was no translation but it came across as “I’m really pissed off” to Ariel. “He needs not concern himself.”
“He is very concerned. Let me run the tests. It will set his mind at ease. He’s ordered the other-world species from our planet, Argis Ral. He will order her gone as well. Let me run the tests to prove to him that she is no danger to your health and well-being.”
Rage hit Ral’s face. “He’s ordered our men to give up their off-world bound women?”
Ahhu hesitated. “None of them bound to those women, Ral. Only you bound one to you. They just shared sex. The other males were easily willing to give up those women.
They are working to find their planets to return them to their worlds.”
“I will not give her up. If he orders her off our world then I will go live on her planet. Leave us.” He paused. “What tests do you need to do now? I won’t allow her to be pained in any way.”
Ahhu walked to cabinets along one wall. She removed a few things before walking to a table. She eyed Ral. “Your father has demanded I make sure she doesn’t have sexual control over you. I need her sex fluids to test to make sure they aren’t working as a drug into your system. I will also need sex fluids from you to test to see if her fluids cause a reaction in your own body.”
Ral growled. “Fine.”
“You can’t mix the fluids. Will this be a problem?” Ahhu eyed Ariel. “Does she have fluids?”
“Yes. Get out. I’ll take care of the testing. Lock the door on your way out.” Ahhu nodded and left the room. It locked with a loud click from the other side. Ral sighed as he turned around, his full attention was on Ariel.
Chapter Eight
“Why did you try to leave my home? What have I done to anger you?” Ariel crossed her arms over her chest as she eyed him back. “I don’t share. I thought bound meant loyalty. As in you wouldn’t fuck other women. I will leave, Ral. If you touch that woman I’m so gone.”He cocked his head. “I see.”
“You see? That’s all you have to say? Let me tell you something, Ral. I’m human.
You’re Zorn. I know there are some differences, but I won’t be with a man who has sex with other women. It won’t happen. If you want to fuck that bitch…that woman…you go right ahead but you won’t be touching me anymore.”
“This wasn’t an issue while we were prisoners. Women were rare. On my world it is acceptable for a male to have sex with different women. I did not invite her to our home. My father gave her to me. He wants me bound with her instead. I told her I wasn’t interested. I did not wish to have her, Ariel.”
“You let her back in after you kicked her out. She took off her damn dress and you didn’t make her put it back on.”
“Some of my kind goes naked in home. It is not an uncommon or unheard of thing.”
“She goes or I do, Ral. It’s that damn simple. I’m really hurt that you’d even consider it.” She moved away from him to stare out the window. “You really have hurt me inside. How would you feel if I had sex with another man?” Ral snarled. In seconds he was touching her as he gripped her arms to spin her around to face him. “I would kill.”
“That’s how I feel, damn you. Do you know the rage that you’re feeling right now when you think about another man touching me? I feel the same rage when I think about you with other women.”
“Our culture is different but I understand.” His eyes softened. “I promise you no other women. I didn’t mean to harm you, Ariel. I meant no hurt to you. I don’t want her. I told her no. You are the one I want in my bed. I just didn’t think you would find it offensive that she was naked. Now I know. No more unclothed females in our home.” Ariel stared up at him. “Did you want to have sex with her?” He didn’t look away. His eyes were locked with Ariel’s eyes. “I did not. I told her no. I meant no. You are who makes me hard, Ariel. You are different from women of my world and I am addicted to those differences. To touch another woman but you would be…” He hesitated. “Not worth my time or an interest of mine. Was that clear for you to understand? You are the only female I want to touch.”
“She goes.”
He hesitated. “She was given to me. If I kick her out she will be without a home.
She will starve or be harmed without protection. It would be cruel.”
“Can you understand me now?” Her eyes went to Ariel.
Joy filled her. “Yes!”
Ral chuckled. “We can understand you too. I’ve missed your words.” He grinned down at her.
“This is a program of the ear device we took off you,” Ahhu explained. “The conis is running it for us.
