Dominance Fury

  Alea, who sat next to Bligh chimed in."I for one am glad. I think you're much better off helping me at the school."

  "I'm enjoying my occupation, uyo." Bligh added.

  "Well hopefully, after the babies are a little older, there will be something I can do here." Sydney sighed woefully. Now that she was confined to Tertia as her sentence, piloting was no longer an option. "I'm really going to miss fly-eee---eee---yow!"

  Another contraction gripped her uterus like it was clamped and twisted in a vise. "Oh my god that hurts!"

  "Breathe!" Alea encourage her, and started to pant as if it was she who was giving birth. t

  Sydney tried. Really she did, but she began to panic when she felt a stretch and burn in her crotch that she was sure had gone to its ripping limits.

  "You try breathing while attempting to pass a brick!" Something was wrong. Sydney just knew it! Turning her attention to the foot of the bed she sought an answer. "What the hell is happening in there!"

  Melaj looked up and grinned. "They're feisty little fifons."

  "So you're telling me they're trying to gnaw their way out!" Sydney snapped and then yelled out as another contraction topped the other before it could subside. She squeezed her eyes shut but then forced them open to watch her babies on the monitor. Liam on the left had his mouth clamped over his brother, Riley's nose, and Riley had his hands at Liam's throat as if he were trying to choke him.

  A chuckle escaped Emiez. "Willful. They are battling to be born at the same time."

  "Our She'mana is not large enough for such a feat," Calem commented. His brow wrinkled with worry.

  Behind him her fathers-in-law paled further. Both groaned.

  "Ka!" Karisi, Calem's mother said. "Enough. Out with the two of you!"

  She pressed the wall plate to the birthing room door and shooed them out, though she didn't actually have to do much to convince them. They practically ran out of the door. At the same time Arjim's mother, Triadel stepped in. His fathers were behind her.

  "Why don't you just install a damn revolving door!" Sydney shouted.

  Arjim's fathers took one peek at Sydney's face, shook their heads and did an about face.

  Triadel planted her hands on her hips and shook her head. "They can go to battle and slay a dregwa of radicals…" She spun toward the bed. "Well then what's happening here…spirits!"

  "Rymma…" Arjim shot her a warning calling by her the Tertian name for mother.

  "What have the two of you done to her?" Triadel thwacked Arjim on his head.

  He grimaced and jerked his head to one side.

  "I'm going to try and shift them so I can deliver one at a time." Emiez commented. "Don't push, She'mana Sydney."

  "Too late!" Sydney shrieked and tried to bear down.

  "Breathe Sydney," Alea said.

  "Oh shut the fuck up!" Sydney growled back.

  "Uh-huh." Alea said taking no offense. "I think it's time."

  Arjim and Calem rushed to her side. Sydney gritted her teeth and tried with all of her might to keep from pushing. Her contractions hit painfully harder.

  "Such a strong women, She'mana." Arjim encouraged her. He planted a tender kiss to her forehead and then skimmed his knuckles along her cheek, smiling lovingly at her. "You give us a magnificent gift, enduring such discomfort."

  "It hurts damn it!" Sydney snarled.

  How bad can this be?

  I think it is not as bad as our She'mana expresses it to be.

  Overreacting you think?

  I think…

  Not that bad? Not that bad? Overreacting! Sydney heard Calem's mental thoughts to Arjim and his returned comments. Apparently they'd let their guard down and had forgotten she could listen in!

  Bastards!

  How dare they undermine what she was going through. Well if they'd forgotten to block their thoughts to her, then they'd open the channel allowing her to push her thoughts into her heads then! Another contraction hit and rippled through her abdomen and back like she was being used for a punching bag. "Oh god!"

  "Push She'mana Sydney," Emiez said.

  And Sydney did. She pushed, and pushed and pushed, and finding the mental connection with her Sh'em she pushed the sensation of the torturous labor pains directly into their pea-brain little heads.

  Arjim's breath caught in his throat and his eyes glazed over. Calem doubled over and groaned as he wrapped his arms around his stomach. They both looked as if they were going to faint. Served them right!

  "One more," Emiez said.

  Calem yowled a curse. Arjim yowled another while Sydney merely grunted and strained and pushed several more times delivering both the infants into the Tertian world.

  Emiez and Melaj examined the babies thoroughly. After giving them a clean bill of health they swaddled the infants in blankets and then nestled one in the concave of Sydney's right arm and the other in the left. Sydney moaned and attempted to catch her breath. Elation set him and she chuckled while smiling adoringly at her children, who were now calm, their eyes blinking at their new world and the faces admiring them.

  "They are exquisite, She'mana," Arjim said, his voice quivering in response to the cramping he still felt in his gut.

  "They will grow to be as strong as their mother." Calem grinned, though he continued to pant like he'd just finished a marathon. He slipped an index finger beneath one of the babe's hands and watched his tiny fingers curl around it. "But they will be as handsome as I am."

  "I think they more resemble me," Arjim answered in return.

  Sydney rolled her eyes. The boys were as identical as their fathers. Tipping her head upward she looked at her Sh'em and noticed tears in their eyes. "You're both crying."

  Her heart melted at their endearing reaction.

  Arjim swiped at an escaping tear. "We cry because labor pains, what is your earth word?"

  "Labor pains suck," Calem finished for his brethren. "I thought my naagis were going to rip apart. How does the female endure it?"

  "I don't know what you're talking about." Alea winked at Sydney. "We don't feel a thing."

  "Enough, enough!" Karisi said. "I want to hold one of my ashe' aem."

  "And I will hold the other," Triadel said as she held out her arms.

  Arjim picked up one of the babies and handed him to his rymma, while Calem lay the other baby in his rymma's arms. Sydney chuckled as her mothers-in-law began cooing and babbling at their ashe'aem, or grandbabies, proving they would be as much the doting grandmothers as any earth grandmother would be.

  "What is the name of the one I hold?" Karisi asked.

  "You are holding Liam," Sydney told her.

  "It is an earth name that means courageous," Arjim added.

  "Then I must be holding Riley." Triadel planted a kiss atop the baby's head as she rocked gently from side to side.

  "His name means strong-willed." Calem answered this time.

  "Which one was born first?" Sydney looked at the healthteks. "Which one is older?"

  "Ashu! I do not know." Emiez frowned as her gaze shifted between the two babies that Triadel and Karisi held. Looking up she shook her head at Sydney. She lifted a brow as she looked at Melaj.

  He shrugged at her. "We were too concerned with preventing injury to both the She'mana and the ashe'tods."

  "Uyo!" Emiez added. "They fought like starblazers to be first, to have the dominant position in the family."

  Dominant position?

  Simultaneously everyone's mouths dropped open as all eyes fell to the babies. Simultaneously their eyes widened as Riley suddenly stretched one of his little arms and with his hand fisted reached out crossing the small gap separating the two grandmothers. He smacked his brother in the head. Everyone gasped watching in disbelief as Liam did the same.

  "Dominant position?" Sydney, Arjim and Calem muttered all at the same time. Their gazes shifted from one to the other and simultaneously they all blurted. "Oh snap!"

  The End … or is it?

p; Trigon Basics and Definitions, Language and Cast of Characters

  Call to the Trigon - Two Tertani males mystically brought together for the purpose of claiming a female mate.

  Transdelta Link - the blending of two Tertani male minds. Males of the same Trigon are constantly linked. They call refer to themselves as being of like minds. During the Triconjugal Hunt, the prowlers' minds are linked during a Transdelta meditation ritual. It dissolves once the Tina is claimed and sexually mated. This ability allows the Trigon males to become cohesive, bonding in a way that will allow them to fully understand, cooperate and accept each other, thus enhancing their relationship with their woman. Tertani females do not have this capability.

  Brethren - the nomenclature shared between two males of the same Trigon

  Tina - female virgin or innocent

  Sh'em - the two married males of the Trigon

  She' mana - married female of the Trigon

  She'amatina--refers to the ancient tribe of virgin females

  Trigon - type of marriage common on the planets Tertia and Tertia Minor consisting of two males and one female.

  NOTE: In the Trigon, the males take the name of the female. For example if the

  She' mana's name is Alea as in the book, her mates, Tren and Rjant will be known collectively as the Sh'em ot Alea, and the union as the Trigon ot Alea. The Sh'em also attach their female's name to their own birth names after they marry, dropping their own mothers' names. i.e. Tren ot Alea. Their offspring will also carry the name of their mother attached to their first names.

  Edification - the preparation of the virgin female by her Trigon mates to decrease her apprehension and intimidation of the upcoming Triconjugal consummation. During the first sexual encounter with her Sh'em, a female will frequently become overwhelmed by two overpowering warriors intent on ravaging her body. She may become hysterical. The edification helps to increase her trust in her mates and to ease her fears. The edification begins when the brethren link mentally and begin their seduction of the Tina while she is in a dream state. It later becomes physical but the dictates of Edification state a layer of clothing must separate the males from their female. Kissing, fondling, simulated copulation (better known as a "dry hump" ~grin~) culminating in climax is acceptable and encouraged.

  Flaunting - the initial self-introduction of the Trigon males to their chosen female mate to intrigue her. During the flaunting, the males spar with each other, to demonstrate their masculine prowess, and to peak her interest in accepting them as her Sh'em. The exhibition is performed using the talon arc and is typically a friendly spar between the two males. The Flaunting is followed by the Edification which brings on the Changeover. The Changeover leads to the Ritual of Dominance once the Prowlers and the Brethren are linked and eventually, one Brethren relenting to the other they become of like mind.

  Triconjugal Blessing - bonding words offered to the Tina by her future Sh'em which precedes the hunt and subsequent mating.

  Triconjugal Ceremony - The sacred ritual of marriage mating, following the capture of the Trigon males' female. The Triconjugal Prowlers, after having mated with their own She'mana, bear witness to the consummation. During this ritual the male Prowlers sit encircle the new Trigon sitting cross-legged around them and with their hands held in Delta position. They chant the ancient words that bring health and fertility to the new triple. At this time the transdelta within the group is broken, but not the mental thought sharing that occurs between males of the same Trigon. That blessing remains intact. The Trigon females are not present, but gather in a separate location to continue the celebration and await their males' return. The wedded males are usually quite randy after bearing witness, much to the enjoyment of their females.

  Triconjugal Hunt - The pre-mating, predatory ritual during which chosen married females, and the claimed Tina, flee from their mates, to be hunted and captured by them. The Triconjugal prowlers, once they have captured their females, are expected to fornicate, to diminish their frenzy, before witnessing the breaching of the virgin female.

  Triconjugal Prowlers - The wedded males who are invited by the betrothed Trigon males to participate in the Triconjugal hunt. The hunters must already be mated. In the early days of the planet's history, while the males lived in organized and domesticated encampments, the females banned together in packs, roaming freely and untamed in the savannas. Despite their lack of civility, the females were quite cunning about eluding their males. Even so, when their pursuing mates did manage to outwit her, the female's extraordinary running speed and agility often allowed her to avert capture. Because of this, it was the Trigon prowlers' duty to assist the Trigon males in tracking their Tina through telepathic linking, informing them of her location.

  The Changeover - an instinctive hostility that develops between the two males of the Trigon as the need to mate becomes more and more urgent. Each male attempts to seize dominance over the other, their hostility toward one another escalating until a battle ensues between them. i.e. The Ritual of Dominance

  Ritual of Dominance - An aggressive and sometimes violent battle between the Trigon brethren, each fighting for supremacy. In a true Trigon the brethren are equally matched, one cannot defeat the other.

  In ancient times the males were often so battered by the time they relented, they were incapable of mating until their wounds healed. In modern times, now being less savage in nature, the brethren typically relented before either of them was injured too severely.

  Of Like Mind - During the Ritual of Dominance, the brethren battle one to dominate the other. It typically takes place in front of their Tina and with the Prowlers beseeching the divinities to bless the triple. During this time the Brethren engage in a final conflict to finally relent and concede that they are equals and ready to live compatibly sharing their thoughts as if they were of a single mind, though each retains his own personality. Once this ritual is complete they are free to mate with their female.

  Talon arc - a curved thin weapon, similar to an archery bow, approximately four feet in length and two inches in diameter, made of a highly resistant smoky colored metal. A talon or claw shaped blade with a single barb is attached to one end. The other end throws laser orbs that can be set on stun or kill. Contact with this same end will cause and shock that when set to high drive will render its victim unconscious for hours. Set on low drive it merely delivers minor jolt that's uncomfortable but not damaging. The handle is made of a thick leather cord, wrapped to a length of twelve inches. The talon arc is sheathed at the warrior's back and is attached to a baldric belt. During the flaunting, only the clashing of arcs, similar to a sword fight, is demonstrated, and because the Trigon mates are in constant telepathic link during the flaunting it is highly unlikely either of them will be hurt.

  Tertian - the word properly used to refer to any inanimate objects of the Tertia and Tertia Minor planets.

  Tertani - the word properly used to refer to the inhabitants of the Tertia and Tertia Minor planets.

  Delta - The position the hands are held in during meditation and during sacred ceremonies including the Triconjugal Ceremony, often bringing forth a transcendental manifestation.

  Mahatma Divinities - ancient mystical spirits of the Tertia and Tertia Minor planets

  Mahatma Tribunal - court of law and law makers consisting of twelve Tertani males brought by mystical summoning similar to the way that Tertani men are called to the Trigon. Members of the Mahatma Tribunal are celibate.

  Credics - the universal monetary device used throughout the CalyTron Galaxy. Each individual had his or her disc and could transfer or receive funds with it. The disc keeps record of all transactions and credit balances and is the means to buy and sell.

  Wards - the six districts within the CalyTron galaxy consisting of fifty-two inhabited planets and many uninhabited.

  First Ward: Location of the planet Geminus (Home of Windi Britny) and the planet Krell (Place of Tocol's heritage) - native planet of the prince Jonhi, who raped Wind
i Britny resulting in the outbreak of Brit's Scorn

  Second Ward: Location of Puratan - the satellite colonies established for those infected with Brits Scorn disease and the planet Junpar

  Third Ward: Location of the sister planets Tertia and Tertia Minor

  Fourth Ward: Dormoth (Ruled by the monarch King Dred)

  Galactic Allegiance: The political system, peace keeping and watchdog group of the CalyTron Galaxy consisting of member representatives of the fifty-two inhabited planets. Their mission was to ensure harmony between the planets and to prevent any single planet or planetary system from forcing their own rules of governing on other alien societies. Though each planet maintained their own armed forces, the Galactic Allegiance also maintained security throughout the galaxy with a regiment of warriors enlisted from the various planets.

  Intergalactic System for Disease and Sickness Control (ISDS): Medical Interplanetary Community in the CalyTron Galaxy that monitors, controls and researches diseases.

  Krellian Radicals: The race of infected people that sought to control all planets in the CalyTron galaxy. These forces had their beginnings on the planet Krell where Brits Scorn originated. No longer contained to just the planet however, a Krellian Radical is now identified as any person, regardless of planetary origination, fighting on the side of the Krellians.

  Brits Scorn: Devastating disease that driving the galaxy's inhabitants into extinction. There is no cure as of yet. By the time the disease was recognized, it had spread to epidemic proportions. Of the fifty-two inhabited planets in the galaxy only twenty-two remained untainted. These planets are under strict regulations by the ISDS to keep the disease from spreading across their boundaries. Persistent scanning of the inhabitants had been ordered by the ISDS is in the hopes of eradicating the disease before it completely consumed those planets and the rest of the CalyTron galaxy.
