I played along—for a bit. Slowing my pace so I could catch my breath and come up with a plan. They played by Dynosauros strategies. Kroktl ran point for the squad, driving me deliberately where Axxol lay in wait. Using Kroktl’s heat sensors, Rizan kept me pinpointed on the grid for Axxol.
They knew exactly where I was.
Keeping my thoughts as shielded as possible, I decided to change up the game.
I jumped.
AXXOL
She thoughtshe was so fucking clever. If only she really understood how alphas worked. Let alone a BGR+.
I’d already calculated all the possible strategies she’d try. Yeah, she was clever. For a human. That sounded mean and for once, I didn’t mean it to be. She didn’t know about warfare and killing. Despite the mrions improving her systems, she’d never be a predator.
Thank the fucking universe.
I liked my little human prey. The way she smiled. Her laugh. Her torturous scent. Her softness a siren call I’d cross the universe a million times to touch again.
As soon as the blue fire started to flare around her, I jumped too. Directly into her forming ring.
I tore it the fuck apart, shredding through her tenuous jump like it was fucking tissue paper. Then I shoved my snout directly into her stomach, hard enough to knock her back a pace but carefully controlled, teeth covered. I didn’t want her to fall on the ground and risk spraining something, or worse, slice her delicate belly open.
As I expected, she reflexively grabbed at my face for balance.
Her hands on my scales. Her skin on my thin lips. So fucking good. Tempting. I couldn’t help but swipe my tongue down her belly, even though its rough surface wasn’t a comfortable sensation for her.
She flinched away, releasing my head. Staggered and stumbled back, her eyes huge.
I threw my head back and bellowed out my loudest roar. Rumbling the earth. Terrifying humans for miles. I didn’t fucking care.:Fucking RUN!:
Whirling away, she tore through the forest, stumbling because she kept looking back over her shoulder. Fuck yeah. I ran after her, deliberately thudding the ground with every step, breathing heavy and loud. Licking her naked back. Her shoulder. A long swipe of my tongue up her butt crack made her squeal.
Fucking delicious.
She ran like a rabbit, dodging side to side, as if she thought she could lose me. Stumbling over hidden obstacles. Tiring.
So I sent Red in to give her an edge and extend the hunt a little longer.
Ducking through the undergrowth, he swept her up against his chest. With an explosion of speed, he quickly pulled away, disappearing through the trees. Running far more silently than our little human ever could despite his size.
Now came the psychological chase. I hunted them both, using my longer stride to cut ahead so I could suddenly crashthrough the undergrowth right beside him. I swung my head at him, knocking him flying, head over tail in a roll.
He sprang up with a rattling snarl and kept right on running.
He knew where I was. I knew where he was. It was still a game.
I could thump him harder than anything on this planet and know he’d still get up and keep right on running. Because that’s what we fucking do. Especially Tri-Rs bred to run. Though he got his hits in on me too. His tail was more prehensile and dexterous than mine. He managed to poke me in the fucking eye and pissed me the fuck off.
I slammed into him hard enough he lost his grip on Natalie.
Screaming, she went sailing over his shoulder.
I snagged her in my front limbs, shorter than Red’s but nowhere near as ridiculously diminutive as humans portrayed rexes. I’d rather have her in my jaws, but this was supposed to be fun and games, and not even a BGR in rut would risk giving her another infection. I’d never hear the fucking end of it.
Red leaped on my shoulder, digging in teeth and claws, screeching with fury. The scent of blood—my blood—stirred my lust even more. I smashed him through a giant pine and shook him off.
Bleeding victorious, I roared again, though this one was deeper, lower, the alpha threat all my squad would heed. Cease and desist.
Or get eaten.
