“What happened in the woods? I know that he did not bed you.” Marcus stated bluntly, reminding her and his brothers of the virgin blood that had stained her thighs. Farrah blushed bright red and glared over her shoulder at Marcus. She did not want to be reminded of what all had occurred in that room when she had lost her virginity.
“No, he didn’t claim me with his body. He pushed me and he ended up with burnt hands for his effort,” Farrah told them without revealing exactly how Kiva Latoni had obtained those burns. “As far as I know he still bears the scars on his hands from that day. He is never seen anymore without black gloves covering him from fingertip to wrist. I don’t know what he told the other warriors happened that day but none of them came near me after that.” She looked at Bannen then. “I fear them because they hate me for what happened to Kiva’s hands that day. They seek justice from me. It was brought to my Aunt Asme’s attention from some of her sons that the Latoni had let it be known that when my time came to be claimable that they were staking that claim. They planned to bed me right there in the courtyard for all to see and witness and then they planned to use me for pani.” Everyone gasped at this except Erika who had already heard some of this from Farrah. “No one would stand in their way because sooner or later they would all be allowed to use me in one way or another. Why save someone from a fate that will see you rewarded as well?”
“They will never lay a hand on you, Farrah. This is the promise of the Donan warriors. You are our mate now and you will be no man’s pani,” Marcus swore to her as Bannen and Alexi nodded in agreement. “We must call the elders of the village together and have the ceremony as soon as possible so that our claim cannot be questioned.” Marcus turned to Farrah and stared intently into her eyes. “Will you submit to this? Will you agree to have a ceremony and all that it implies?”
Erika started to speak but Arik placed the palm of his hand firmly over her mouth, keeping her quiet while Galen tried not to laugh as he whispered to her, “You must not tell her of the ceremony before she attends herself. That is the way of it as you well know from our ceremony, little one.”
Farrah looked from Erika and her mates to her three warriors and couldn’t help but think that she was missing something really important. “I have no one here to stand in as my family.”
Erika moved Arik’s hand and said, “Yes, you do. You have me as a sister and—”
“You will not be attending her ceremony, Erika,” Galen thundered from beside her. Just the thought of Erika watching the three Donan warriors being pleasured, having her see their aroused cocks as Farrah pleasured them on her knees was enough to make Galen taut with anger. “I forbid it.”
Erika surprised them all by laughing gaily. “I was going to suggest that my mother stand in as her family. I am sure that her Aunt Asme would agree with me. I never once thought that I would stand as witness to the ceremony.” Her eyes twinkled up at him, “Why, Galen, I almost think that you are afraid that I might see something that I like more.”
Galen stood and growled then, with a quick move, threw his mate over his shoulder and smacked her firmly on her ass, making her squeal with delight. The Donan brothers were all laughing out loud and Arik was grinning with what could only be anticipation. “Arik and I have all that you will ever need, Erika.” Galen smacked her again on her ass before squeezing the round globe in his hand. “Perhaps you need to be reminded of that, little one.”
Erika moaned in his arms, “Yes, remind me, Galen. You and Arik need to remind me just how lucky I am.”
Galen shook his head and headed for the stairs with Arik right behind them. “Cheeky wench,” he murmured to Erika.
Arik turned to the Donan clan and stated, “We will have to finish this in the morn as there seems to be something else that we need to do right now. We can plan the ceremony for tomorrow night and both our mother and Erika’s can stand in for Farrah if that is okay with you.” He looked at Farrah and waited for her nod before continuing. “Then if you will send for your mother as well in the morning, Marcus, the ceremony can take place at last light here in the great room where our own ceremony with Erika took place.” Arik bowed to them and headed toward the stairs his brother had already climbed with Erika. “Then if you will excuse me it seems that I have a woman to remind how lucky she is.” With one last grin to Farrah he leaped up the stairs two at a time, leaving the Donan brothers alone with their new mate.
“What does the ceremony include?” Farrah asked innocently. “I have never seen one before.”
Marcus grinned down at her. “The ceremony is only attended by the parents of the mated and the elders. It is something that you need not worry about though, little one. You will know exactly what to do when the time comes.”
Alexi grinned then as well and it was all that Bannen could do not to laugh when his brother added, “Perhaps we should go to our own rooms and express our luck as well.”
“Ummm…” Marcus murmured to Alexi, “perhaps practice wouldn’t hurt.”
Farrah felt a little alarmed when all three of her warriors turned to her with big grins on their faces and used their hands to help guide her up the stairs to their room. She wasn’t for sure what all would happen tomorrow but she knew that it would turn out to be the most significant day of her life. She prayed to the goddess that everything would go as planned with no problems or reservations from the elders at her lack of blood relatives.
When they entered the bedchamber they were using while they stayed in the Savari home, Marcus, Alexi and Bannen wasted no time in stripping Farrah out of her clothes. Within moments she was naked and lying upon her back on the bed. Bannen immediately spread her thighs and, leaning down, filled his lungs with the rich smell of her natural female musk before stroking his tongue through the plump folds of her weeping sex. Farrah keened and moaned as he laved her, tasting every inch of her pussy before thrusting his tongue where she felt so empty, begging for a richer taste.
Alexi worked her nipples using teeth, lips and tongue to suck them to turgid points of pleasure. He sucked them hard, opening his mouth wide and eating as much of her generous breasts as he could fit. While he worked one breast with his mouth he fondled the other with his fingers, pinching and twisting the nipple, keeping her on the sharp edge of burning need. Just when she felt she couldn’t take any more Alexi would switch breasts, giving her a short reprieve before the slow, torturous pleasure would start all over again.
Farrah was lost in the sensations that Bannen and Alexi were flooding her senses with when Marcus appeared. For the first time Farrah really had a chance to see one of her warriors totally naked. Marcus stood beside the bed, watching his brothers feast on her, while his hand stroked slowly up and down the length of his cock. He had discarded his pants and weapons belt along with his boots and he was beautiful in his nudity. Farrah watched him, her eyes glazed with need, and slowly slipped her tongue out to moisten her suddenly dry lips.
Marcus groaned and squeezed his pulsing shaft, tightly reining in his control before climbing to his knees on the bed and moving toward Farrah’s parted and panting lips. They were moist from her tongue and as he approached that tiny weapon of pleasure flicked out again, coating her lips so that they glistened. Marcus pressed forward until the weeping head of his cock bobbed in front of her gorgeous mouth. Gripping it tightly in his fist, he moved it until it was lined up perfectly with her parted lips.
“Open wide for me, baby,” Marcus groaned out. “I want to feel your mouth on me.”
Farrah flicked her tongue out again, stroking his cock and licking the drop of fluid seeping from the tiny slit before pulling it into her mouth with a husky moan of pleasure and opening wide for his first hard thrust. His hand remained wrapped around the base, the only thing keeping him from choking her with his length and girth. She sucked greedily at him, hungry for more of his salty treasure. She brought her hands up and he willingly let her replace his with hers so that she controlled how far his cock plunged. Her hand barely conta
ined him, her fingers stretched wide and not touching around his wide girth as she continued to feed from him. She used her other hand to play with the tight sac beneath his cock, loving the feel of the taut globes enclosed there.
Marcus groaned and tunneled his fingers through her hair before grasping the locks tightly and using them to hold her in place as he thrust his hips. Bannen groaned against her pussy, taking immense pleasure in each drop of juice he could find with his tongue and fingers. Alexi pushed both of her breasts together and fed from them, sucking both turgid points into his mouth with hard, strong tugs.
Farrah moaned around Marcus’ pumping cock, thrusting her hips high against Bannen’s mouth as she felt her orgasm break through her. Marcus popped his cock free and smiled down at her, watching her eyes as she keened and cried out with her release.
“That was beautiful, little one,” Marcus whispered to Farrah. “I’ve never seen a more beautiful sight in my life as you when you reach your pleasure.”
He moved away then and Alexi released her nipples and moved up to her mouth, possessing it with a savage passion, eating at her lips and sucking her tongue into his mouth. Farrah lost herself in Alexi’s taste and touch, wallowing in his kiss. When he finally pulled away Marcus lay down on the bed beside her and Alexi and Bannen helped her to mount him, her pussy perfectly positioned for his first rough thrust.
She felt hands on her hips holding her impaled while her rear cheeks were spread and fingers slicked with fire oil were thrust into her anus. The fingers worked quickly, stretching and lubricating her before another thick shaft was placed there and rammed home. She cried out as pleasure and pain ripped through her, only knowing that it was Bannen thrusting so hard and roughly inside her ass when Alexi knelt at the top of the bed and pulled her head up from Marcus’ chest so that she could wrap her lips around his pulsing cock and suck it into the hot, wet heat of her mouth.
Her men groaned with pleasure, each of them finding what they needed in the tight clasp of her body. Marcus gloried in the tight, hot grasp of her pussy as he pumped slowly in and out of her. Bannen found his pleasure in the snug heat of her ass, pounding in and out with hard strokes that perfectly mirrored his brothers. Alexi groaned, the sound rumbling in his chest as he watched his cock glide between Farrah’s plump lips, enjoying every caress of her tongue, every nip of her teeth and the greedy suction of her mouth. And Farrah immersed herself in them, their cocks, their mouths, their hands, their sounds of pleasure.
Bannen came first with a harsh groan that echoed through the room as he pulsed and spewed, filling her ass. When he finally pulled out with a groan Alexi pulled his shaft from her throat and quickly mounted her from behind, thrusting hard into her ass. Marcus matched Alexi’s fast and furious pace and Farrah came, fire roaring through her veins as her body tightened like a vise around the still-plunging shafts of her warriors, milking them of their own rich seed. She soared higher, burned hotter with each new pulse of semen that her warriors spent within her until she shattered, her vision graying and then going black as she tumbled into oblivion, a smile on her lips from pleasure too intense for her to handle.
Farrah floated there, never gaining consciousness as she tumbled into sleep, content in the knowledge that her warriors would watch over and take care of her.
Chapter Five
The next morning Farrah met Erika’s friend Reanna for the first time. Reanna was just passing her nineteenth summer but already the warriors took notice of her. Who wouldn’t, with her golden blonde hair and big blue eyes? She was taller than either Farrah or Erika who both stood five foot eight. Reanna stood five foot ten inches, which only made her appear more regal and graceful. There was something about her, some hidden quality that one couldn’t quite put their finger on yet made it impossible to look away from her. She was grace and beauty on the inside as well as the outside and Farrah liked her immediately.
Reanna joined them as they went to Erika’s mother’s house on the other side of the village. Few had seen Farrah and she garnered many covetous looks until the warriors saw the wolf on her abdomen that proclaimed her Donan. Although they continued to look no one approached the women, no one would dare risk the anger of both the Savari and Donan warriors.
Erika’s mother met them at the door and led them to the table where she had laid out some sweet cakes and fresh juice made from the island berries. Farrah was nervous but Erin seemed to be as nice as her daughter Erika. The women chatted about mundane everyday things until Erika finally spoke up.
“Mama, I need to tell you some things about Farrah.” Erika explained to her mother before looking at Farrah and asking, “Or would you like to tell her about yourself?”
Farrah was unsure of what exactly Erika planned on telling her mother. That Farrah was also a Guardian? That she was to have a joining ceremony with the Donan warriors tonight and Erin was to stand in as her family? Where to start? What to say? She hadn’t even said anything to Reanna yet and they had spent most of the morning together getting to know each other.
“I know that you are still unsure, Farrah,” Erika encouraged her, “but I would trust both of these women with my life. I already have.”
Farrah took a big breath, filling her lungs with air before taking the plunge and disclosing the greatest of her secrets. “I am also a Guardian.”
Both women looked startled but it was Erin who spoke first.
“How is this? Where are you from? Not this village surely? A Guardian?” She looked to her daughter, asking questions with her expression that none but Erika could read.
“It is okay, Mama,” Erika assured her mother, “she is what she claims. She was sent to me by the Mahiki, Princess Asme.”
“The Mahiki sent you?” Erin asked with stunned surprise while Reanna just looked on with wide unbelieving eyes.
“Yes.” Farrah finally found her voice again. “Aunt Asme, I mean the Mahiki, sent me to find Erika, the Guardian of Earth.”
“Aunt?” Erin questioned.
“Not by blood but by bond as friends with my mother.” Farrah explained the relationship between her mother and the Princess Asme. “They have known each other since they were girls.”
“Your mother is Solame,” Erin said, not questioning but knowing.
“Yes,” Farrah smiled and shook her head. “Mama is called Solame.”
“I remember her well,” Erin told Farrah.
“You know my mother?” Farrah questioned.
“She and the princess have always been inseparable. To know one is to know both. Your mother showed much courage in the time of claiming,” Erin told her. “Many looked to her for courage.”
“I have always known she is strong of heart and mind as well as body,” Farrah spoke with pride.
“And you are a Guardian?” Erin asked.
“Yes,” Farrah answered softly. “I am the Guardian of Fire.”
“Fire,” Reanna sounded awed by this.
“Yes, I can make fire in the palm of my hand. I can throw flames. I can make you burn just by touching you. I am still learning what I can do.”
“And is this why you were sent here? To Erika? To learn and train with her?” Erin asked.
“Partly,” Farrah replied.
“She was sent here for me to hide and help protect her from the danger that was closing in on her,” Erika proclaimed.
“What danger?” Erin demanded.
“It is not so important now,” Farrah stated. “My danger ended when I was claimed by the Donan brothers. Their name will protect me more than anything else ever could,” Farrah stated and there was no missing the emotion in her voice. Erin couldn’t help but to smile at this young woman who was so obviously in love. Farrah was lucky that it had worked out that way for her as not all claimed women were so gifted to find love.
“How did you meet the Donan warriors?” Reanna asked, confused. “If you were sent to Erika then how is it that they claimed you?”
“Well,” Farrah hesitated, unsure of ho
w to word exactly what had happened in a way that would not reflect poorly on her warriors. Erika had no such problem.
“They stumbled on her in the woods when Farrah was searching for me,” Erika explained. “Then they claimed her with no one else around to stop them. She never had a choice.”
Reanna gasped, shocked that a woman could be claimed in such a way but Erin just smiled. “I don’t think that you mind their actions so much now,” Erin stated softly, eyes on Farrah.
“No,” Farrah admitted, feeling the flush steal over her face, blushing, her cheeks bright red. “I have come to love them.” It was the first time that she had spoken her feelings out loud and it was a little scary.
“You are very lucky then,” Erin told her. “Not every woman is so blessed.”
“Yes, I am blessed doubly by the goddess,” Farrah smiled.
“But I wish to hear of this danger anyway,” Erin demanded softy. “Why did the Mahiki send you here to us?”
“My aunt was forewarned by her sons that a group of warriors planned to claim me when my time came. There is some history between us, the warriors seeking to claim me and me,” Farrah shook her head, knowing that Erin would not be satisfied with only that. “Kiva Latoni followed me into the woods one day and tried to…” she struggled to find the right word.
“I understand,” Erin said, her face hard. Erika had been found in the woods once too but luckily it was by Arik and he had brought her home, no matter how much the sight of her lush body had enticed him to do otherwise.
“Anyway, when he touched me I burned his hands,” Farrah said. “I burned them so badly that he still bears the scars under the thick black gloves he is never without. That is the day that I learned that I could burn with my touch, with my very skin.”
“So then what happened?” Erin nudged her gently to continue.
“I’m not sure what he told the people of our village but I was given a wide berth after that. Then the Latoni brothers let it be known that when my time of claiming came that they would claim me in the village square in front of everyone. No one would stop them.”
