Inever thought I’d be having an almost civilized conversation with an orc about fucking.
No woman had ever returned from a hunt to share what happened after they were captured. We assumed they were taken against their will. Never killed because the orcs needed us alive to produce orclings.
Leave it to me to be captured by an orc who didn’t want me. It shouldn’t make me feel upset. No one other than my sister and a few friends back at the fortress cared if I lived or died, so why should he be any different?
It would be nice to find love and companionship with someone—not this orc, however. He was much too snarly.
And conceited.
“We must go.” He tugged me behind him, aiming for a meadow ahead. Something big and pale blue gleamed there in the moonlight, but I couldn’t make out what it was.
“What will we do when we reach the kingdom?” I asked, trying not to trip in the dark. The moon may have finally risen, but clouds had cast a caul across her face.
“You’llremain in my quarters.I’llresume my duties.”
“What willmyduties be since I won’t be producing your orclings?”
“You’ll wash my clothing. Prepare my meals. Keep my quarters tidy.”
“Why not hire someone for that?”
He scowled down at me. “Why would I need to hire someone when I have you?”
Good point.
“And you will help me bathe,” he added.
“Groom yourself,” I snapped. Why was I picturing this big brawny orc lounging in a tub completely naked? I didn’t want to see any part of him, especially his cock.
“I won’t need to groom myself now that I have you.”
I huffed, unsure what recourse I had. I was completely within his power, and I suspected his people would agree.
“You’ll also warm my bed at night.” This time, he didn’t look my way when he spoke.
“You won’t find me willing.”
“Believe me, you will be.”
Egotistical orc. No. Way.
“I’ll try to escape,” I said fiercely.
“If you escape, someone else will try to claim you before you take two steps beyond my door. They won’t treat you as gently as me.”
“You call throwing me over your shoulder gentle?”
“I could’ve claimed you when you were pinned beneath me on the forest floor.”
“You only didn’t because you don’t wish to rut with me.”
“My pendant has chosen you,” he said patiently. “I’ll resign myself to it eventually.”
“Thanks?” I sighed and walked with him out into the meadow.
An enormous pale blue beast rose onto its haunches, its iridescent wings rippled across its back, its four clawed feet dug into the soil. It arched its long neck, tipping its head toward the sky.
