glittered dangerously and her lips pulled
back but it was not into a smile.
    Oh, like hell he did not just say I have a
‘big’ ass, Riley thought viciously.
    Her lips pinched together into a pucker
before relaxing. “As you said earlier, Saraprick,” she replied in a
quiet, sarcastic voice. “I’d like to see you try.”
    Vox smiled at the challenge. He was going to
enjoy getting his hands on her luscious body finally! He was going
to finish the curtain wall, bend her over and take her hard and
fast.
    “And as you said, you really shouldn’t have
said that!” He purred out as he walked slowly toward her.
    “Vox,” Tor murmured from behind his friend
and leader. “I don’t think that is a good idea,” he said getting a
bad feeling from the look in the female’s eyes.
    She did not look like she was worried. In
fact, she looked like she was out for blood – Vox’s blood if he had
to guess.
    “She doesn’t have her weapon on her,” Vox
responded, nodding to where the small Taser laid on the bed.
“She’ll be purring like a kitten once I’ve claimed her.” Vox smiled
as his eyes glittered possessively. “That’s what you need, isn’t it
little cat? A good fucking.”
    Riley’s face flushed at the dark promise in
the huge male’s voice. “I am so going to enjoy putting your ass on
the ground again!” She hissed out, trying not to give in to the
desire to turn tail and run.
    The problem with running is there was nowhere
to go in the small room. The second problem was that she had
learned a long, long time ago if you didn’t stand up to a bully
when you had a chance, you might never be given another one. She
gripped the cylinder, waiting until he took another step closer to
her.
    “Last chance, big boy,” Riley warned softly.
“Step back over the white line and leave me alone or I’ll have to
put you down again.”
    Vox almost paused at the soft warning he
heard in her voice. There was a trace of steel that told him she
wasn’t going to run. She would stand and fight him tooth for tooth,
claw for claw. His eyes stared deeply into hers and he saw a
resolution in them. She would not back down. His pride in her grew
at her fierce determination to face him even though he could see
the slight tremble in her hand as she pushed a long strand of white
blond curls behind her ear. She was a worthy mate for a king.
    “You are mine, little kitten,” Vox responded
gently. “You will accept what the Gods have given you. Come to me
willingly or come to me fighting but come to me you will.”
    Riley shook her head and tightly pinched her
lips together in determination. “Sorry dude, I’ve seen enough alien
movies to know that it never turns out good for the supporting
actors. Since I’ve never been a heroine, this is a no-win situation
for me. I’d just as soon go down fighting.”
    Vox’s grin widened. “I always did like a good
fight before I fucked,” he said, reaching to grab her off the
rock.
    “Your choice,” Riley muttered holding her
breath as she held the small cylinder up and depressed the
button.
    Vox’s roar filled the small room as the
pepper spray hit him in the face. Riley stood frozen on the rock,
pressing her hands over her ears as his loud curses and pain filled
roar continued to echo. He fell back several steps, grabbing at his
face before he fell to his knees in agony.
    “What did you do?” Lodar asked in horror as
he tried to help Vox who was rocking back and forth on his knees
emitting low mewing sounds of pain.
    “It will stop hurting if he washes his eyes
out…. I think,” Riley whispered. “I’ve never actually had to use it
before but that is what the directions say to do.”
    “You’ve never used this weapon before?” Tor
said as he gripped Vox’s shoulder and tried to see what was causing
his friend so much pain.
    “Well, I warned him!” Riley said defensively.
“It’s his fault for not listening.”
    “Female,” Vox hissed out painfully. “I’m
going to
