“I don’t know what I’m looking at.”
“Two lines. Congrats.” Wait. What?
“Let me see that!” I snatched the stick away from her. Two blue lines. Holy shit. I was pregnant. What an interesting twist of events. Well, the good news is that my potion should be taking effect just about now. I only needed to test it.
“So, any word on those disappearances?” I had to lob one right down the plate before I tried to change it up.
“What disappearances?” Arkan squinted and held the pregnancy test up to the light.
Kara’s eyes bulged. “Oh, um. You know those girls that ran away.”
“Some of our girls ran away? Who?”
Okay, well that was interesting. So Arkan’s been under someone’s spell and order, but Kara hasn’t? Does that mean she’s been working willingly against the tribe?
“You know what I saw in my kitchen the other day? A raven.”
Arkan laughed. “You must have been dreaming. There isn’t a raven around here for miles.”
Kara looked like she was about to vomit. She might not have been under someone’s spell initially, but you could bet your ass, now she was under mine.
“Kara. I’m going to need you to tell me the truth.” Her eyes grew glassy. She sat down hard on the countertop.
“What’s wrong with her?” There was nothing wrong with her. She just drank a huge dose of nature’s truth serum.
“She’s fine. Tell me why you helped that witch steal those girls.”
“What girls? What the hell is going on?”
“I’m sorry Arkan, but I’ve drugged you both. You’ve been under the influence of a witch. Kara’s been working with her to help derail the clan. And I’m trying to find out why.”
“That’s ridiculous. Kara would never do anything like that!” Arkan expressed hotly.
“Tell him Kara.”
Tears streamed down her face. “It’s not fair.”
“What’s not fair?”
“I gave this tribe everything I had. My whole life. My body, my mind, my soul. And as soon as I turned forty, I was no good to them anymore. They stuck me in a shitty cabin alone. No one wanted to visit me. No one cared. My warriors got assigned to other parts of the forest, far away. My children got sent to wars and died for causes they couldn’t even explain. And now, we’re getting cut from the orientation process.”
“What the hell are you talking about?”
“The council informed me last week. All because of this stupid witch here. Something about intertribal relations. They need to be on their A-game because they’re being watched. So, I decided that I would steal their precious half-witch baby and make a fortune. Fuck the tribe.”
Arkan’s jaw was hanging open. His face was red and sweaty. The sleep effect was starting. I wouldn’t have much time with Kara.
“But, why would you kidnap all of those girls?”
“It was a good distracti
on. Now they are all trying to figure out who kidnapped those girls and they left you all alone.” Her eyes rolled back in her head. She was right about that. The guys did act predictably.
“But, how would you be able to sell my baby? I mean I am still here.”
“I was just going to feed you some line about Arkan getting kicked out of the tribe for impregnating you. Actually, it doesn’t really matter. Since we weren’t supposed to fuck you during the tryouts anyway, him cumming in you wouldn’t have made a difference. But, you believed us, so I figured I would make the most out of it. Again, I was just taking advantages of opportunities.” Kara began to wobble.
“Catch her.” Arkan’s hands shot out and grabbed her. “Now go lay down. I know you’re both sleepy.” Arkan dragged Kara to our bed and climbed inside.
