NovelEnglishNow they all sounded calm, but the rage was building fiercely in every direction. This would be dealt with, it had just been allowed to go on much too long. They were upset with me, but happy to take it out on these other girls. My family would teach them and every Lesson would be in blood.
“She was foolish,” I pleaded. “Her friends were foolish. It is normal for a human to want to better themselves…”
I refused to agree and be dragged into a senseless bloodbath. We were all slaves, none better than the other. There was nothing to gain in harming these humans.
“The girl who hit you,” Bane said concentrating on the large purple bruise, “was not human. She is from a world not far from yours. Her bone is as hard as the metal in our blades. Those creatures are bought from slave auctions their own plputs on. She is a born slave and knows no other life.”

Damien spoke sharply to Bane. He ordered him not to causepain just because he was upset. Nu- reeh would be angry enough as it was.
“Give her comfort now, Brother,” Bane.
Damien threatened squaring off with
The lesson had to be enforced and Damien would do what had to be done. Hurting his Brothers caused him pain, but they had to Learn. This was not a lesson we could forget.
We were in turmoil and it was uncomfortable. The men wanted to kill something and I did not. I was in pain and they were not. None of them were used to the discordant feelings and it was frustrating.
Frankly, I felt a little schizophrenic, much like the Last tthis pregnancy thing had happened. I couldn’t concentrate and couldn’t think straight.
“Eh, so we are becoming an Earth family, then?” Kein said trying to lighten the mood, “Fighting amongst ourselves and disagreeing with one another is normal on Earth, correct, Ciara?”
I nodded and smiled remembering my crazy upbringing. Eddy had once thrown a kitchen knife at Mom and thepolicehad been called. The house had been athree ring circus. I didn’t think I could stand that mess again.
Bane reached past Damien andhuggelightly in the shower.

“It is how you wish.”
It drained out of them. The rage was gone and they were decided. It was better for the family not to hold onto it, so we didn’t. The girls that had hurtwould be dealt with by their owners, not us.

Lifting my arm hurt, so they didn’t put my linen cover onafter our bath. Instead, Christof laidin the bed under a blanket to rest while we sorted everything out. I concentrated on the men and soon drifted into a restless sleep.
The General cand Damien explained to him what had happened. I saw the entire transaction through my dreams. The men told the General they wanted no part of the punishment and they wanted to have no knowledge of it. This strange request was acceptable to the General; he didn’t even question it.
“Nu-reeh will be incensed her breeder was harmed,” the General said watchingsleep. “I will be glad when you and your Brothers leave for the mountains. It is more than I can deal with to have it here.”
Damien laughed internally. Even knowing that I carried a little life inside of me, he still insisted on callingan ‘’it’. The man had no imagination. Christof wholeheartedly agreed and reminded Damien he’d thought that the entire time.
