Shurak, book 2

Chapter 9

"Nope," I say before anything else happens. "You're not going into my head."

The Mah'mert frowns, and the antler Karshok looks at the one next to me, and so do I.

"You swore on your Shurak," I say, pointing a finger at him.

He looks at me with sad eyes and says, "This Karshok promised to let her go after everything is done. We are not finished."

The fucking gall of this guy. I snatch the gun on my holster, but the moment I aim it at him, my wrist is tightly in one of his hands.

"You fucking liar," I hiss.

"This Karshok is sorry," he says and takes my gun.

Finn laughs and looks like he's watching the best movie of his life. "Oh this is hilarious. Do you think they want to know everything that happened between us as well?"

Bile rises in my throat and I look at the Karshok, begging him wordlessly.

I don't want anyone messing with my head.

"Can you at least limit the prodding only to my memories of the Shurak?" I whisper, defeated.

I know I can't do shit with so many of them around.

The Karshok turns to the Mah'mert and I follow his gaze. They seem to think about it, and then they nod, releasing the awful knot in my throat.

"But I won't forgive you," I whisper to the dude dragging me to the centre. "You're a big fat liar."

I'm planted on the ground and Finn decides it's the perfect time to attack; he darts his hand towards me, managing to grab my ankle.

I smack my free foot on his face and start kicking like a rabbit, then he's contained by the antler, but I continue kicking, not quite reaching.

He still has my fucking ankle in his fist.

I glower at him and lean over to his hands and start clawing it.

"You stupid fuckboy, thinking you're so fucking cool and shit, want a goddamn medal? Huh? Too bad you're dead as fuck, just come closer! I fucking dare you!" I swipe my nails towards him, but I'm out of reach.

So as the smart person I am, I get up and jump on him. I slam my palm on his already broken nose and before I can do more, I'm lifted.

"Let me at him, boss!" I flail and kick out, until we're separated much farther from each other. Finn glares at me, holding his nose.

"You want a rematch, cocksucker?" I grind out.

"You bitch," he rumbles, he's obviously locked in place by the antler guy now, otherwise he'd be charging. "I will kill you, even if it's the last thing I do. You got me in this shithole!"

"You delivered yourself moron!" I yell in exasperation. "Are you that daft? You're the definition of an... an aneurysm!"

I'm sure he doesn't have a clue what that is and it pisses him off.

His face grows angrier and he tries to move, but he can't.

Tough luck fuckface.

"Fuck off," I say and flip him the famous middle one. "You want some of these up your ass? Come over and I'll stuff my whole fist up there."

"Please," the Karshok keeping me in place whispers. "Could we not have more trouble? This Karshok thought she wanted to help the Shurak."

I scrunch my lips and give Finn one last glare.

The liar Karshok is right. I shouldn't give that asshole one more second of my life. I should get this over with and then help my Bambi.

I don't want to do this… mind shit though. There is stuff that I don't want anyone prodding about.
