Shattered Stars by Viola Grace Read Free Book Online

bodysuit of a sort. It looked like
spandex met a spider web in a rich blue.
    It took her
five minutes to get it on properly, and Mero watched her the entire
time.
    “If I have to
get out of here in a hurry, we are screwed.” The blunt words came
out of her mouth before she realized that they were
disrespectful.
    “Why are you
wincing?”
    “I am preparing
to be ordered into a position to be whipped.” She opened her
eyes.
    “I will not
whip you. Come here.” He put his screens aside and beckoned her
close.
    She walked to
him and stood in front of him, her hands folded at her waist.
    He reached out
and moved his fingers until she stepped into the vee of his legs.
“Straddle my thigh.”
    She swung her
right leg over his left and did as he asked.
    “Sit.”
    She sat.
    “Now, touch me
as you rock yourself to completion.”
    Hannah blinked
and placed her hand over the thick erection in his trousers. She
rubbed him while she rocked her hips against his thigh, and in a
few minutes, her tension snapped and she bucked against him with
low moans marking each inner spasm.
    When the
intensity of the inner flutters eased, she sighed and relaxed.
    “Good, Hannah.
Now, your instructor is waiting outside, and he will take you to
the entertainment complex where you will train. You have your
charm?”
    She held up her
wrist with the small stone.
    “Excellent. I
will be involved in trade matters for the morning, but I have
ordered you to have a massage here in our quarters after every
fight session. We cannot have you tensing up at the wrong
moment.”
    She licked her
lips. “Shall I go then?”
    “Yes. I will
see you for lunch.”
    “Yes, sir.”
    She got off his
lap and wobbled her way to the door. When she opened it, the guards
were there, and across the hall, there was a Pliok with rich purple
skin.
    He did not look
impressed. “So, you are to be my student?”
    “I am.”
    “This is going
to be quick. Come with me.”
    She walked with
him through the halls and to the entertainment complex. The gym was
a large space with plenty of sparring areas.
    When they faced
off against one another, he asked, “What do you do when you are
attacked?”
    “If I can, I
run. If I can’t, I fight to disable.”
    He looked
surprised. “Why is Lord Mero wanting you trained?”
    “I am at most
risk from my own people. Intimate bondservants are not looked upon
with respect.”
    “So, there has
already been an attack.”
    “Yes. The man
thought that since my body was paid for, he could take what he
wanted. I have not been out of my society long, so I was unsure how
to respond.”
    “Ah, so that
was the fuss that Lord Mero attended.”
    She nodded.
“So, I would like to know what to do when I am attacked, step by
step, please.”
    He nodded,
rushed at her and caught her in his embrace. She pulled up her
knee, elbowed him in the throat and bit at the arm he wrapped
around her neck.
    One of her
techniques made him drop her, and with the baseline drawn, the
training began in earnest.
    Pressure points
were discussed and pursued. She learned that no species liked
getting its eyes gouged and the biting was definitely a plus.
    The hours flew
by, but soon, her instructor was calling a halt and leading her
back to her quarters. A young woman in a domestic shift was there,
as was a wide table suitable for the massage.
    The young woman
was human. This was not going to be fun.
    “Hello, I am
Hannah.”
    “I am Lisa. I
will be working on you today.”
    Hannah nodded.
“Would you like me to undress here or in the bathroom?”
    “Wherever you
are most comfortable, miss.”
    Hannah nodded.
“I will be right back.”
    Inside the
bathing room, she pried the suit off her body, and it fought her
every inch of the way. When she had finally got her stiffening
muscles to cooperate, she shoved the suit to the floor.
    She wrapped a
drying cloth around her and returned to the main living area.
    The massage
went fairly well for the first half until Lisa got
