“I was not out there by choice!” I shouted back at him in anger.
“You humans are helpless! You always need our help! You should not be here!” he shouted as he stomped in the sand toward me.
“I don't even know where here is! I am not here by choice! I was taken from Earth, so you can stop shouting at me, you jerk!” I shouted at him as I stepped toward him with my hands on my hips.
“Sure, that is always the story that you have. You are too soft and to helpless!” He shouted.
“You don't know anything about me!” I narrowed my eyes at him.
“Stay here. Hide. I will come back for you when the battle is over, even though I don't want to and I should not have to,” he said with disdain.
“What?! You are leaving me here? You cannot do that,” I said, pushing my finger into his strong abs. They were as hard as metal.
“Watch me,” he said, leaning over me from his tall and impressive height.
“Ravinn!” another voice interrupted us.
I turned to see one of the warriors that had abducted me landing in the sand with Stephanie.
“ Biyen,” the warrior that had saved me said as he walked over to him.
“Thank you for fetching this human. There are two more that Jitu is bringing. He should be right behind me,” he said as he turned and looked into the sky.
“You are welcome, Biyen. Now I must get back to the battle,” the warrior with the gray eyes said as he gave me a dirty look. I hated him already.
“Ravinn, the battle is over. The opposition retreated,” Biyen said.
“What?! I should have been there to fight to the very last second. I would have been if I had not taken the time to rescue her,” he said pointing at me.
I narrowed my eyes at him. He kept the insults coming. I ran over to Stephanie.
“Are you all right? Did you see Michelle?” I asked her quietly. She was visibly shaken.
“No. She must be with the other warrior,” she said.
I walked the edge of the sand on the shoreline and looked up in the sky, blocking out the sun with my hand. Then I saw the silhouette of a warrior flying in the air toward us. I was relieved to see that it was carrying something. Finally, it landed, but it only had one female in his arms, and it was not Michelle. It was Brenda.
“Michelle. She is not with you?” I said to him as he put the other female down in the sand.
“This is the only one that I found,” Jitu said.
“No. She is still out there. I saw a red dragon take her from the water! We have to go after her! You must get her back!” I shouted as I ran in a panic from one warrior to another.
“The opposition has taken her,” Biyen said to Jitu.
“There will be no getting her back now,” Jitu said.
“No. That would be a dangerous and foolish mission. It is not worth it. You have three here already, and that is plenty,” Ravinn said.
“How dare you say such a thing! Who are you to say what a life is worth! You are a pig!” I said as I narrowed my eyes at him and stomped in the sand over to him. If he wasn't so tall, I would have slapped him, but I was about three feet shorter than he was.
“I am a Draqua, that is who I am. Now we should get back to the village before the opposition comes back and catches us without the rest of the army,” he said as he dismissed me and moved over to the other warriors.
“Yes. That is a good idea. We should go now,” Jitu said as he moved over to one of the women and grabbed her, scooping her up in his arms carrying her like a baby. She let out a little squeal before he shot straight into the sky.
“I will take this one,” Biyen said as he grabbed Stephanie in his arms and shot into the sky. I looked over at Ravinn. I narrowed my eyes at him. I did not want him to touch me. But what choice did I have?
He gave a heavy sigh in annoyance. He scooped me up into his arms, putting one arm underneath my knees and the other around my bottom. My eyes grew wide in shock. I quickly threw my arms around his thick neck as he shot straight into the sky. I could feel the wind from his wings as they moved up and down. He went very high as he followed Biyen and Jitu out over the ocean. I was quiet. I did not want to talk to this warrior. If he said one more thing to piss me off, I would bite his chest.
Ten minutes later, we came to a large landmass. I could see a village that was made out of huts in the trees like massive tree houses. Bridges very high in the trees connected them. I was astonished by it all. It was actually very beautiful, like a tropical paradise. The clear water underneath us was filled with sea life.
The warriors that carried the other women landed in the sand along the seashore of the beach. They placed them on their feet. The warrior that carried me, however, was not a gentleman. He put his feet in the sand as he landed and then threw me onto the ground. I rolled onto the sand. It was soft sand, and I did not get hurt, but my pride was very wounded. I spit sand out of my mouth.
“What the hell! You didn't have to do that!” I said to him.
I heard him laugh. I hated him so much. I wanted to get revenge on him somehow. I wanted to show him that I was not a helpless human as he thought. I wanted to embarrass him. There were so many things that I wanted to do to him out of frustration and anger. But I did not know that those feelings would change drastically and what I wanted to do to him was much dirtier than embarrassing him.
CHAPTER TWO
RAVINN KEED
Even though I was a hybrid and my mother was a human female, I had become increasingly annoyed by the large population of human females on Kelon. They seemed to be more than we needed and they all were very fragile, weak, and helpless. It annoyed me to my very core. The only good thing that came from having the human females on Kelon was the sect of Draqua known as the opposition. I hated the opposition, but they did bring a good fight, and that was the only thing I liked about the opposition.
I loved a good battle. I loved to defeat the enemy and the adrenaline rush that it gave me. I lived for it. So having the opposition out there waiting to spring battles on us was just what I lived for. Without them, we would have no battles at all and my sharp skills as a warrior would be wasted. I could not have that. I had battle in my blood, and I needed to release it.
So when we heard that the opposition was shooting down village ships as they entered Kelon over the ocean, I was one of the first ones to fly out and meet them. I flew hard and fast, ready to engage in combat. I did not wait for a ship; I flew out there with nothing but my hard scales to protect me. It was fine; I was a quick flier and able to maneuver swiftly. When I arrived, I let out a yell at what I saw. “Whoo! Save some for me!” I shouted in joy. I zoomed straight into battle, aiming at a green dragon that was shooting fire at a ship. I hit him hard in the belly with my shoulder, driving him away.
The battle was fierce. It was chaotic, and I was having a great time. But when a yellow dragon that I did not see coming knocked me out, I fell into the ocean and sank deep into the water. I was out only for a few seconds, and when I came to, I saw the small, fragile body paddling in the water and knew it was a human female. What the hell was she doing in the middle of the battle? It annoyed me. I swam straight for her. I grabbed her and shot straight into the air. When I put her on the small island beach, I finally got a good look at her.
She was wearing tight pants with boots and a tight top of knitted cloth. And her red hair was wet and stuck to her. Her tight clothing left little to the imagination, and I did get some pleasure at looking at her bouncy breasts and ample hips. But that was it. That was as far as my pleasure went with this human female. She was defiant and ungrateful that I had saved her. So when we finally got to the village and to safety, I threw her onto the sand. It was what she deserved.
I laughed at her irritation that I threw her on the ground. I began to walk away, but she stopped me.
“Wait! Where are you going? You have to help her,” she said as she stood in front of me with her hands on her hips.
“
What are you talking about? Get out of my way, human female,” I said, pushing her aside and walking past her. She ran and caught up with me again.
“My friend. The dragon took my friend. It was a red dragon. You have to track her down and bring her back here. If it were me, she would do the same,” she said, looking up at me with her blue eyes.
“There is nothing that I can do for her. We have no idea where the opposition is based anyway, if they are on this planet at all. They are probably on another planet. We cannot spend the resources to look for one human female. We have more than enough of you here on Kelon as it is,” I said as I began to walk away again.
“If you are too scared to do it, just say so. If you are a coward, just admit it,” she said to me.
I growled. I turned back to her and took two big strides and got in her face. I was boiling with anger. How dare she say such a thing about me. She did not know me. She did not see and witness the many battles that I had fought and won. Her words were like poison to me, especially because they were coming from a useless human female.
“I am no coward! Do not call me that ever again or I will have to hurt you. Not even the king himself would be able to save you,” I sneered at her.
“I am only calling it like I see it. You have too much fear of the dragons to go after her,” she said as she crossed her arms across her chest.
“Enough!” I shouted at her. I put my hands on her waist and lifted her up into the air. She screamed.
“Ravinn!” a voice said. I recognized it immediately. I put the human female down and turned around. There, standing in the sand, was a female Draqua. She was a hybrid like me. She was tall like me. She was strong like me. She had black hair and black eyes and was the most beautiful stunning creature I had ever seen. She stood there in a sheer white dress with a yellow cloth covering her breasts and a yellow loincloth on her waist.
“Talia,” I said walking toward her.
“What are you doing?” she said with a bit of jealousy in her voice.
“I am only exchanging words with these human females that we rescued from the battle. It is nothing. Let us go,” I said, trying to get her to walk away with me. But she was not so easily convinced. She walked toward the humans.
“Oh, more humans. Just what we need. These look older than the usual batch, and a bit fragile,” she said as she judged them.
“Excuse me,” the redhead human said.
“What are you called, red-haired human?” Talia asked.
“My name is Amelia. What are you called?” the red haired human said angrily.
“My name is Talia. Biyen, should you not be taking these humans to be registered at the port?” Talia said.
“We were just headed that way,” Biyen said with a smile. He knew that Talia was being jealous.
“Please, come this way. We will get you fed, cleaned up, and registered,” Biyen said as he led the human females from the beach towards the village. As the human called Amelia walked away, she looked back over her shoulder at me. Her blue eyes narrowed in hate.
I rolled my eyes at her. Where did she get off trying to force me to go find her friend? I was nothing to her. Sure, I had saved her, but that was it. I would never see her again. She would not be in my life. I was not going to sacrifice myself to save her human friend. Talia turned back toward me.
“I did not like seeing your hands on that human,” she said as she seductively walked toward me.
“Trust me. My hands were on her in a bout of anger. If you had not interrupted, I probably would have snapped her neck,” I said playfully to her.
“I hope that is true. I do not like the idea that you are touching this human female. She was very ugly, wasn't she?” she said.
“Yes, she was. Just like all human females. She does not compare to you. They are small and weak. You are tall and strong and rightfully the Draqua that I should be with,” I said to her.
I was always doing this. Talia was very insecure that I was going to leave her for a human. And although I had no intention of doing so, her insecurity came from a valid place. She was not able to create offspring, like all the female Draqua on Kelon. It was something that had developed over the last couple of decades. That was why most of us were now hybrid, born of human and Draqua. It was like a plague on the Draqua on Kelon. But there were many that thought it was only a passing phase and that soon a new generation of Draqua female would be able to create offspring. But some took this belief to the extreme and they fought over it, they were called the opposition. They split off from the village and for almost two decades had been at war with us. It was a complete mess. But it did afford me the chance to sharpen my battle skills.
“I am glad you are back. I missed you,” Talia said.
“I missed your warm, sexy body,” I said as I ran to her and scooped her up into my arms. Then I flew straight into the air into the trees. She was laughing as I held her in my arms. I placed a kiss on her cheek. Then I landed on the veranda outside of my hut.
“What are we doing here?” she said as I set her down.
“I think you know what we are doing here,” I said as I grabbed the sheer white dress and began to pull on it.
“But I have a lot of responsibilities today,” she said with her eyes full of passion.
“Then I guess those responsibilities will just have to wait, because this is not going to wait,” I said as I grabbed her hand and placed it on my hard cock.
She laughed, and I grabbed her hand and pulled her inside my hut. I growled as I pulled off my loincloth and boots. She smiled and pulled the sheer white cloth over her head. Then she pulled off the yellow loincloth and yellow strip of cloth that covered her breasts. She stood naked in front of me. I picked her up and threw her on the bed.
“I want you inside of me, Ravinn,” she whispered.
“Well, if that is what you want, then I guess that is what I am going to have to do. I do not have a choice, now do I?” I said laughing.
I put myself on top of her, and she opened her thighs wide. I kissed her mouth and then I entered her. I closed my eyes as I moved inside of her, and then something happened that shocked me.
Images of the human with the red hair named crept into my mind. Suddenly I was imagining that it was her underneath me. We would have just fought and had a heated argument. Then I would have taken her and pushed my hard cock inside of her warm body. I was getting extremely heated as I thought about this.
Then I remembered myself. I quickly opened my eyes and looked down into the beautiful face of Talia and her black eyes. I felt ashamed that I had even thought of such a thing. I kept my eyes open from then on, looking at her face so that I would not think about the face and body of the human female. It would not be right.
From then on, I said the name of Talia out loud over and over as I released myself inside of her in order to force myself to not say the name of the human female. When we were done, I rolled off of her and tried not to feel guilty. Thankfully, for me, there was a knock at the door of my hut.
“Who could that be?” Talia asked.
“I do not know. I will check,” I said as I walked to the door, relieved for the interruption.
I opened the door. On the other side was Ephane. He was a young hybrid like myself. We went through warrior training together. But I remained a warrior, and he went into the governmental systems. It was the best place for him because he was not as strong as I was. Even for a Draqua, he was a bit thinner than most.
“Ephane! What can I do for you?” I asked with a smile.
“Ravinn. Are you busy?” he asked.
I opened the door wider. Now he could see Talia lying in bed with a sheet on top of her.
“Oh, I see that you are busy. I am very sorry to interrupt. But your father asked me to find you. He wants to have a word with you, and he said not to leave your side until you were at his side,” Ephane said.
I sighed in annoyance. My father was a very strong Draqua and he was not an easy one to talk
to. There was only one right way to do things: his way. It made these little talks that we had very unpleasant. I did not want to go. But I knew that if I did not, he would just come look for me himself and be even angrier.
“Let me get dressed. I will be with you in a moment,” I said as I closed the door. I walked in and got dressed, putting on my loincloth and belt and boots.
“I swear your father knows when we are together and he likes to pull you away from me,” Talia said sadly.
“No, I am sure that this is not the case. He probably just has some ridiculous responsibility that he wants me to take care of. He does not know that we are together this afternoon,” I said as I leaned over her and kissed her on the cheek.
“Will I see you later then?” she asked.
