.He advanced slowly on Naeth,compelling him to retreat until the back of his knees hit the edge of his bed.He lost hisbalance and fell back in a semi-sprawl.Reijir s icy glower did not change as he regardedhis wayward charge. Why did you leave? he snapped. I, uh Talk fast, Naeth.I m in no mood for long-winded excuses. Nay, I m not I just want to Naeth gulped when Reijir shot him a blisteringglare.His next words came out in a rush. I didn t want to be a burden to you anylonger! Reijir s eyes narrowed in bafflement. A burden to me? Where in Aisen did you getthat idea? I heard you talking with Keiran, Naeth admitted haltingly. You told him youwished you d never taken me in.That I would cause you to do wrong if I persisted in-inliking you. When Reijir stared at him in even more confusion, he added, It was the dayafter you took me along to the Citadel.I d left you in the study to deliver everyone sletters. He cringed when Reijir s eyes widened in comprehension, and his jaw all butdropped from sheer incredulity.The Herun ran a hand agitatedly through his hair anddirected an awful stare at Naeth. You idiot! he shouted. You take off with next to no money, try to lead us on amerry chase with the most pathetic attempt at misdirection I ve ever known, and nighended up buggered within an inch of your life in the space of three days! And all becauseyou heard something you didn t understand and thought running away would solveeverything? Naeth gulped. I m-I m so sorry, he mumbled.That was a mistake.Reijir s stare only grew blacker. That s all you have to say? he sarcastically said. You left to avoid leading me intowrongdoing, but thanks to your foolishness, I ve committed all manner of wrongdoingtoday! I almost beat your friend s mate to a pulp, probably broke up their marriage forgood, then came near to throttling that fat-bellied lech when he pawed and poked you.And to top it all, I sliced up that oily-tongued purveyor of filth! Holy saints, I ve foughtand killed Deira before, but I ve never gelded one! Naeth s breathing quickened as Reijir s diatribe rose in volume and bile. I didn t mean to cause you so much trouble, he stammered. I thought I was doingthe right thing. By whoring yourself? Reijir shot back.Eyes tearing up, Naeth shook his head. I didn t want to.It disgusted me.But I hadnowhere to go.I didn t know what else to do.I I just had to bear it. Reijir went utterly still. Bear it? he repeated in an ominously low voice. So youwould have gone ahead and spread yourself for that paunchy degenerate? I didn t have much choice You would have let him fuck you until you bled? Naeth was shocked by the Herun s crude language. Please, Dyhar, he begged. It snot that I wanted to You nigh sullied yourself irredeemably and for what? Over a misunderstanding? Reijir grabbed Naeth by the arms and roughly pushed him down on his back. You wouldhave given yourself to a stranger for a mere pittance compared to what you ve beenreceiving from me? he murmured, his voice suddenly husky. Considering how muchI ve already spent on you, that makes me the highest bidder for your precious virginity,don t you agree? Naeth caught his breath at Reijir s abrupt change in manner.An unholy lightgleamed in the Herun s eyes, making him more terrifying than when he was activelyenraged.Naeth planted his hands on Reijir s chest and attempted to push him away.Reijir snorted and leaned down farther, trapping Naeth s hands between them. A felka isn t supposed to resist his customers, he chided. You aspired to be awhore, Naeth.Try behaving like one.You won t last long in the business if you don tlearn how to please your clients. Please, don t Naeth half sobbed. Not-not like this. Then how? Reijir taunted him. Like this? Naeth cried out as his shirt was ripped open.He stared in wide-eyed shock at Reijir,unable to see the Deir he worshipped in the cold and calculating noble who looked set toravish him without care or pity.He shook his head wordlessly, failing to summon anything that would turn Reijirfrom his path.Again, he tried to push the Herun away.Reijir retaliated by crushing himinto the mattress and smothering his resulting protest with a savage kiss.Naeth feebly struggled, but he was no match for the Herun s strength.He tried toturn his face away and break the scorching seal of their mouths, but Reijir cupped hischin and forced him to respond.And respond he did to his dismay.It was not how he had envisioned his first kiss with Reijir, but it was a kissnonetheless.A plundering, possessive kiss that left him breathless, robbed him of lucidity, and stoked a slow fire in his belly.Before he knew it, he met the sensuous stab of Reijir s tongue into his mouth withhis own tentative dips.Reijir smoothed his hand upward along his flank and came to reston his chest whereupon the Herun stroked a nipple to a hard nub.Naeth instinctivelyarched into the caress.And down below, his shaft reacted to the frictional slide of Reijir sgroin against him.As if they were not a part of him, his hips lifted, seeking morestimulating contact.When it came, he shuddered with the sensations of arousal.Deep shame swept over him at the same time sharp desire surged within.He weptthen, sobbing softly even as he welcomed kiss upon kiss on his yielding lips and mouth.Reijir suddenly stiffened above him.Naeth heaved a shaky breath as his lips were released.He opened watery eyes topeer at the Herun.Reijir was staring at him, his eyes dark and unfathomable.But thefrightening gleam in their depths was gone.And so was the nigh contemptuous curve ofhis mouth. Dyhar? Naeth shakily whispered, wondering why Reijir had ceased his assault.Helifted a visibly trembling hand and touched the Herun s cheek.Reijir jerked back as if burned.He let go of Naeth, pushed himself off him and roseto his feet.Without a word, he straightened his tunic and ran his fingers through his hairto smooth the tousled locks.All the while, he stared unseeingly before him and did notlook at Naeth.He strode to the door and opened it.Naeth half climbed out of the bed, anxiously calling after Reijir
