’ s body already ached for his touch. She wanted his warm hands on her flesh. Craved his hot wet mouth on her breasts. Yearned for his massive penis to slam into her wet cunt and take her back to the heights of pleasure she ’ d just experienced.
The conflicting emotions of fear and sexual cravings frightened her, made her back away from him.
“I’ m sorry. I…I ’ m not used to having a male demand something.”
She wiped away the hot tears suddenly streaming down her face. She didn’t know why she was overcome with such wicked emotions. One minute she was writhing from his pleasurable touch and the next minute she was crying because she’d hurt him. She was beginning to feel like a nervous wreck. Losing control of her life was something she ’ d never expected to happen to her.
Yet only last night, she ’ d given in to Cath and the Queen. Allowed them free rein over her by accepting the rings.
All because she craved Green Eyes. All because they would allow her to have him for one day. Tonight Cath and the Queen would come and his new life as a slave would begin.
The thought made her sick to her stomach. She wanted him to be safe with her. Away from the Sperm Bank and the guards who loved to torment their slaves by forcing them to service them at all hours. She wanted him all to herself. So she could fuck him. Like she ’ d done in the clinic.
It’s just…she hadn ’ t expected him to be so demanding. And herself to be so greedy for his touch. The price had been high to get him released. Perhaps too high.
The tears rushed out of her eyes and slid down her hot cheeks.
“Annie, don ’ t cry. I know you aren ’ t a violent woman.” He reached out to her, but she couldn ’ t go to him. Not when she was all weepy. Women weren ’ t supposed to seek comfort from slaves.
“You’ re overwhelmed. That ’ s all. Maybe it ’ s best if you just release me. I ’ ll disappear. You can go back to your regular way of life.”
The thought of not seeing him again made a strange compassion, an uneasy tenderness, grip her. She didn ’ t want to lose Green Eyes. Even if it meant sharing him with the whole village.
“I can’ t let you go,” she found herself whispering.
“Why not?”
“They’ ll kill you if I do.”
“I’ m a pretty resourceful fellow. I ’ ll be fine. Just tell them I escaped.”
“You can’ t escape, because of the bracelet.”
Green Eyes blinked in puzzlement.
“The bracelet on your ankle. If you go further than a half mile radius of this cabin, the droids will come.”
Annie wiped the tears away from her face. “The droids will come and they ’ ll kill you. They ’ ve already been programmed.”
Chapter Eight
Joe looked down at the thin gold metal bracelet fastened around his ankle. Damn! He hadn ’ t noticed it.
Droids? Guns? Were these women capable of such technology? And yet they lived in modest homes with no electricity, no running water and no bathrooms.
Very interesting.
“These droids? What are they? What do they do?”
“They are machines. Trackers. Electronically programmed by the Queen. If you wander out of range the droids fly in and disintegrate you.”
Lovely.
“How did you invent these droids?”
“They were given to us.”
Now he was getting somewhere. “By whom?”
“The ancient gods.”
“What are you saying? You just woke up one day and found all this technology?”
“Yes.”
Joe blinked in surprise. “I was joking. Are you serious?”
“Yes, very.”
“How long ago?”
She shrugged her shoulders. “Long before I was born. The Queen is the only one allowed to control these matters.”
Oh boy. This was getting a little scary. What else had these women found besides guns and droids? A nuclear bomb? He’d better get the heck out of here, find his brothers and warn them that these females weren’t as innocent as they appeared.
Well, maybe innocent wasn’t quite the word.
“Can’ t this bracelet be
