The more is what I do not want to deal with.

I need to get rid of her soon.

I find my eyes on her again. She moved to another shaded area but only far enough so she can’t see me eating. I saw the way she turned a pale shade when she saw my food. It’s either the enemies starved her or the planet she came from has weak stomachs.

She’s fiddling with that small bag I gave her, making inventory of the small things she got along the way. I realized she doesn’t have any monies. Other cultures depend on money but here, everyone has food as long as you provide your share. The forests are rich with food. She can dig and pluck fruits. My ancestors rebuilt this planet before it could go supernova.

Still, right now she’s plump and I like holding her curves. The outline of her jumpsuit is making her stand out. I should probably buy her another set of clothes. Good thing I kept that jumpsuit. Coone must have stashed it in my bag because he knew we’re going to meet. I wonder how he would react seeing her. However, she needs to find real food fast. She explained the things she ate which I honestly find disgusting. I took her to a prime meat butcher in town so she can eatreal food. And what did she do? She puked.

Sighing, I gathered my things and stood up. She noticed me and immediately closed her body bag and stood up. It rests just below her ample hips that I want to hold again. Fuck, what’s going inside of me? Maybe she has a poison or mind control? Yet I could not detect anything from her. I am one of the best trackers and can spot a liar a hundred impes away.

Then it hit me.

That tiny bag is all of her belongings. Everything she owns, it is all neatly packed in that tiny bag of hers. A qhudril, those little beasts, can store tons of food and baubles they like to steal. On average, they can store food twice my size.

Zirc is growling again. And it disconcerts me that he is looking at me as if I’d done something bad. So I looked at him, try to challenge him.

“What is it now?”

Of course it’s futile because he doesn’t understand me.

He just glared at me, his eyes though had gone to slits. I gasped. And couldn’t stop my body by taking 2 steps back.

He seemed to realize it at the same time. He stopped growling immediately. Then turn his back.

“Follow me.”

My heart was beating too fast. I haven’t seen any person that can change mood that fast unless she’s a woman having hormonal issues. I walked behind him as we walked away from the house. I made sure to walk at least 2 steps behind him. The horse, like a dog, is trailing us. I kept looking back to make sure he was following us. But he’s very docile, for a very large horse.

I first heard before I saw the stream at the back of the house. It seems like most houses here have nearby streams or any small body of water. This must be their bathroom.

True enough, we stayed long enough only to wash ourselves. Even though Zirc motioned for me to strip naked, we did not have sex. I turned my back to him while I washed myself. The water is only knee deep so I had to scoop some water. He handed me what looked like paper that turned to soap. It was enough to soap my hair and body.

When I looked back, he was finished and looking at my body. His desire was clearly written on his face. And his naked, erect cock. Couldn’t resist looking down to see if he’s partially dressed.

Yeah right, I snorted.

My vision was partially blocked when he threw me clothes. I gathered them and they are fresh clothes. But the same set of clothes I had before minus the stain. I could not tell if they are the same or these are new. I stood there naked at the stream wondering if he can do magic. I don’t see anything resembling a dryer. Could it be that his bag has an extra set of clothes?

When I looked up, I saw part of his body disappearing at the corner of the house. I finished dressing up in record time and sprinting to his location. I see that he’s looking at me, a frown on his face.

I took a deep breath and walked calmly towards him. My chin slightly pointed. Of course I did not think he was going to leave me here.

He grabbed me by my waist none too gently and hauled me up. This time I was ready for the height so it did not surprise me too much. I simply held on to the horn of the saddle.

He pulled me towards me. I stiffened because there was hot poker at my ass. Stroking me in tune to the gait of our horse. His arm felt like an iron band across my waist. I knew he had his clothes on. The same washed out clothes he had. But it feels as if he’s naked.

“Hmm,” he said against my hair. I can feel his chest rumble. He feels so warm behind my back.

“You smell like me,” he purred. I had goosebumps all over my body. His breath hot against my neck. Huh?

I realized he placed my hair on one side and now he’s inhaling me.

I can feel his intentions and my traitorous body is responding.
