The Plague(A BWWM Dystopian Novel)

Bonding

XUI POV

The human male grabbed Leena in a hug swinging her off the floor. A low  growl rumbled in my chest at his hands on her.

She laughed at his enthusiasm and i wanted to gut him for it. She should only laugh with me. Who is this male? How does he know my Leena?

"What are you doing here B?"

"Its a long story but I'm glad to see your still making it. I always said you were tough. So how did you end up with them?"  The male asked suspiciously  eyeing me, Lokkar and Slix

Leena turned to glance at me "Its a long story" she said repeating his words

"Listen up!" the female Keira yelled, silencing the humans in the room with  her commanding voice

A female leader i realized. That is interesting.

Once  Keira explained who we were and our plans to work together. Murmurs and growls of disbelief rang through the room

Then our group sat for a meal and hashed out further plans for specifically where we would go and what we would  do.

Tomorrow  our group would travel to Lokkar's home tribe, the Turqua and I would officially start my campaign for gaining followers who would help me overthrow my father. 

I felt a mixture of nervousness and apprehension swirl within me. On some level i had always known i would have to fight my father, but i had deluded myself into thinking that we would work out  our differences one day. What foolishly childish thinking. One of us would die. It was almost as if it was evitable; always meant to happen. The standoff between son and father. I was not at all worried about that. Oddly enough all i felt was relief. I would also have to save my unborn youngling.

That night as we walked to retire in the shared room given to us. I stopped Leena in the halls. i needed to know if she would ever forgive me. If we would ever have a another chance

"Leena? Will you ever forgive me?"  i asked her as she moved to walk past me

She halted in place. Turning to face me, her gaze  softening as they looked at me

"Xui...I..I do forgive you"

I stepped boldly into her space

"Then why cant we be together? You know how i feel about you" 

"I do and you know-"

 I silenced her with a kiss. A deep kiss, full of longing and overwhelming  love. i poured everythingi had into that kiss. . Every emotion that pulled and clawed at my heart to be released. She gasped in surprise but clung to me just as desperately. I pulled her even closer still,  immersing myself in her scent, the softness of her body, the purity of her essence. I wanted to pull it into me; inhale it so deep it would  become imbedding in my very being. A small moan escaped as our tongues touched, stroked and probed. Warmth heated my blood  and i felt myself growing increasingly excited.

Reluctantly i pulled away from her before i was tempted to consummate our bond and sealed her to me forever with or without her consent

Panting she watched me struggle to gain my control

"I want you to Xui"  she told me, her expression almost brought me to my knees.  she loved me too.

"Then we stay together. there's no reason not to. We can face anything, Leena. As long as we're together" I reasoned

She nodded still dazed from our kissed, her lips still slightly swollen. 

I leaned my forehead onto hers inhaling her deep. "

I wish i could be with you right now" i told her my voice thick and husky with my arousal

She smiled mischievously

"There are many ways to be together without bonding Xui"

I stared at her, surprised by her suggestive words

"Come my prince, let me demonstrate to you what i mean" she said strutting off to our rooms, her hips swaying seductively. A glint in her dark sinfully beautiful eyes

*******************************************

I woke the next morning much later than usual. Though I had  expected to need the extra sleep after last night. Leena and I had exhausted one another with our extensive and thoroughly pleasurable explorations of one another's bodies. I grew excited once again with just the memory of her luscious lips on my fevered skin, but Leena was not beside me. When i opened my eyes she was nowhere in the sight.

Suddenly i felt worry. Hopping out of bed, i quickly dressed and  tore through  the halls searching for her. Hushed angry whispers halted me

"No. I told you I am not interested B, I'm with someone"

A scoff sounded 

"that Outsider. Are you serious Lee?"

I heard Leena huff with indignation 

"Do you think i  give a shit what you think? Whatever thing we had going is the past B.  I don't what you anymore, that's all you need to know"

"You did once. All the time" the male spat

No longer wanting to hear anymore of their conversation i stepped from around the corner

Leena immediately clamped her mouth shut. The male she had greeted before sneered in my direction before he stalked off down the hall angrily

I watched her as she shuffled her feet uncomfortably, not meeting my eyes

"Who is he to you Leena? I asked. My calm tone belied the inner rage stirring within me

"No one just someone i used to know" she said cryptically. still adverting her gaze while attempting to pass me

"Leena?" i called impatiently demanding to know

She huffed with frustration 

"He was just...a guy i was with... sometimes ok?" 

I sucked in a breath 

The male had known her. Intimately. That thought infuriated me even though i knew it to be wholly unreasonable

" Xui" Leena called trying to gain my attention back from the dark thoughts my mind had wondered in to

"Xui,  It was a very long time ago. I don't want him.  i only want you, You know that". She told me placatingly 

I shook my fury away and smiled down at her but made no further comment about it

She watched me worriedly as we walked together to the dining hall. We would be leaving in a few hours i didn't want to fight with her. again. Especially  over a past lover who was irrelevant.  She was mines now. Last night had proven that.

As we sat and ate a small quick meal before our long journey began. I  contemplated what would occur upon arriving in the Turquas facility. I too had pasts that i hoped would not create  a rift in our knew found fragile  union.........................................

What do you think awaits the group at the Turqua facility?

Do you think Xui should be jealous of Brandon?
