Cortana cracked her eye slowly and stared at the unfamiliar wall for a moment, wondering. ** Who did I sleep with this time?** she thought, then the memories of the Flight came rushing to her head. She sat up, suddenly awake. Anath sent her love from her place on the ledge. She was alone.
" 'Ello beautiful." Cortana turned and grimaced at the lump in her bed. She didn't know the brownrider, but she remembered seeing him in the Dining Cavern once or twice. He wasn't her type.
"Hello." Cortana said back disgustedly, and began to slink out of the bed, looking for her clothes. The blanket wrapped around her body. She was almost out of bed when a big, sweaty hand grabbed her arm.
"Don'tcha want a bit more?" He asked absently. His face was full of lust, and she could see that his eyes weren't the only thing interested in her.
She grimaced again in disgust and looked at him squarely. "No. You disgust me brownrider. And I don't want you near my person or my bed. Please leave." She actually got out of the bed this time. She grabbed her pants and was looking for her shirt, hoping to make a quick escape. She looked up to see him out of bed. Though his body was as sculpted as any dragonrider's, his hygiene and face disgusted her.
She put one hand on her hips and looked at him menacingly.
"May I have my shirt back please?" She asked, her patience running thin. He grinned at her, and she noticed he didn't have all his teeth.
"Not until you bed me." He said simply. How could someone like this Impress brown? Cortana snorted. "If you want it that bad I'll just take yours." **And remember to scrub extra long when I get back to my weyr.** She bent down to grab it and felt a slap on her behind. She stood up with a look of anger and shock on her face. "That wasn't funny." She said angrily and gathered the blankets about her. She'd leave without a shirt. She'd gone home in less before.
She was almost to the door when that same gross hand grabbed her by the elbow to turn her around. The look on his face scared Cortana, though she didn't let it show.
"I said you was to bed me. And I won't take no for an answer." He began to drag her back to the bed. Cortana took her free hand to punch him in the face. He staggered back from the blow.
"If you come anywhere near me again I'll do more than punch you." Cortana threatened, her fist still raised. He just looked at her lustily.
"I like it when they fight. It means I can be rougher. Now come." He never finished his next sentence because Cortana punched him again. She kicked him in the crotch before turning to leave. Before closing the door she told him:
"If you want someone more submissive I know plenty of men who'd be happy to bed a wherries arse like you." She slammed the door and his pain gripped body. She didn't stop walking until she was back in her weyr.
Anath waited their anxiously.
}:He did not hurt you did he?:{ she asked sniffing her rider from top to tow. Cortana wrapped her bare arms around her greens head, glad to be safe at home.
"No dearheart, he didn't touch me. Not for lack of trying though." She sighed. "You had to go for the brown didn't you? There were so many better choices."
}:He was the smartest.:{ Anath said simply. }:Next time they won't catch me until _I_ want them to.:{ She said assuredly.
"I know they won't Ana." Cortana said reassuringly. "They'll never catch you next time." Anath nodded and Cortana grinned. She was so glad to have the green. "Now if you'll excuse me I have to got scrub the filth that man left on me." Cortana said and went into her room to change for the bathing room.
