Revenants of the Past- Book Two of Selective Breeding

Chapter Fifty Seven

Ruma walked very quickly through the winding corridors, and large floor opening of the ship station. Bvelpio walked with her to keep an eye on her, to make sure no one intervened on her way back.

Once they got back and were standing in the hallway, just pass the guards. "Remember our plan, and what we discussed. I'll let Vassenhilo know that you want to talk with him." he slipped a bottle into her hands. "That'll get the plan rolling. If you want that freedom, you'll get things started sooner than later, eh?" he turned and walked away.

Ruma watched him walk away. Then looked down at the vial in her hand, she swished the blue liquid around to watch splash against the side of the glass container. She sighed. Biting her lip, she stared off for a moment, knowing what this bit of liquid represented.

Life was already hard- and it was about to get that much worse. As it'll now be a game of chess with man who has already taken most of her pieces.

Ruma couldn't just take this without talking to her males first. She tucked it away and walked into the room. A sigh of relief escaped her as she walked in to seeing all four boys asleep in the main lounge.

Tyklyn and Kaylo was curled together on the left, while Deon and Ratok where cuddled together on the right. Ratok looked a little worse for wear but he was alive. She closed the gap between her and her brude and Maeger.

She kneeled next to them and brushed both of their hair, holding their faces in her hands. Ruma placed a kiss on both of them, then laid her head on Deon's lap watching the two of them. Just soaking in the moment.

Ratok started to stir bringing his hand up to Ruma's shoulder. "There you are. We were starting to worry." he said, gripping her shoulder than releasing it.

"When you and Deon wake, I have something important to discuss with you two."

"Give us a little bit, today was rough on us both."

She leaned up and gave him a kiss, "Take you time,"

She spent the next few hours cleaning herself and contemplating her actions, she couldn't leave to speak with Vassenhilo until she told them of the plan. It was late into the night and Ruma still couldn't sleep.

Deon was the first to finally wake, it was in the mist of extremely late or extremely early.

"I'm glad to see you," Deon said, stumbling into the bedroom.

Ruma moved from where she sat to him, wrapping her arms around his waist, and slipping her fingers beneath his shirt. So she could run them over the skin on his back.

They kissed softly and held it out. Before moving back.

"I almost died today- in that maze." Deon said, staring down at her, "Ruma I've never had an easy life, but I've never feared death as I have being here. I also have more to lose. Please, tell me you're still willing to risk what we must to get out."

Ruma teared up, and pulled him in tightly, burying her face in his chest. Squeezing, like if she let go she would lose him. She pulled him back towards the bed, "Let me love you like a brude," she said, watching him follow.

He accepted letting her take control. Ruma was passionate, rough and gentle. When she was done with him, he was in a lolled high. She was quite pleased with herself, as it had been some time since she'd been the one in control, it had been a while since she had a brude after all.

Ruma was able to sleep after that curled around Deon. By morning, everyone was awake. She was quick to grab Ratok and pull him into the room with her and Deon.

"Is this about what you wanted to talk to us about last night?" Ratok asked yawning and rubbing his eyes. He groaned as the pain of stiff muscles set in.

He sat down and waited.

"Bvlepio is a insider spy, he has been tricking Vassenhilo this whole time. I didn't want Tyklyn to hear this but he is in with the people who run the organisation that attacked the compound."

"That's concerning," Deon said.

"They want to work together to take over Vassenhilo."

Ratok scowled, "I don't think I like this."

Ruma shook her head, "I don't either. I think, that they will try to stab me in the back, but I do think that if we play along for a time. I can skirt out from under them as well,"

"Ru-" Deon started to protest than stopped, "NO, I think she is right, we were looking for people with power- this might be our out. Start here, we can do our own thing with help."

Ratok nodded, "Okay- Don't bite the hand that feeds you, what do they want."

Ruma rubbed her arm, "To play along with Vassnehilo's game, to get pregnant again, but they showed me they have the plan to put their money on them so that I will keep them at the end of the day."

"No" both of them said in unison.

"I will not put you through that again- Ruma your barely stable as it is, no offence my love but if something bad happens, you will fall off the deep end." Ratok said.

"Ratok, its you and Deon- or its who Vassenhilo is making plans with. According to Bvlepio he pretty much has them on an agreement." she started to shake. "PLEASE" her voice rung out, she went back to her signs. "Don't let someone else touch again- I don't want to be bedded by another." she started to sob. "I know this isn't the most ideal situation, but I don't have much choice- Ratok- Deon-"U

They looked at each other. Realising the situation.

"Ru" Deon walked over to her, "I won't let it." he looked over at Ratok. "We won't let anyone have you again."

Ratok sighed and rubbed his face. They waited for Ruma to cool off. "What do can we do?" he asked when she was calm.

Ruma fetched the bottle. "This- it'll put me in a heat. If I take it, and have you two breed me. I will fall with one of yours child. It'll get everything in motion and passify Vassenhilo for a moment

"I don't like this" Ratok said. "It feels wrong Ruma."

"What else do we have?"

Ratok walked up and held her to his chest- "I will." he sighed. "I'll do it." he laid his hand on Deon. Giving him a broken look. "We'll be okay," Deon whispered. Not fully believing it himself.
