Dero's Bride (Norlanian Brides Book Five) Read online

Page 7


  Tarihn sighed happily as she ran the heavy bristled brush through Eas’s soft fur. Storvi stood close by her side, the little beast growing quickly in the weeks since she’d arrived in the hidden city. She never thought she’d find happiness taking care of animals, but she felt right at home, especially when Dero was with her. She’d taken over the grooming, brushing each zareb once a week until their sleek black fur glistened in the sunlight. At Paoli’s request, she’d begun to save the fur that came off the zarebs. He was using it to stuff pillows, toys, and to add fluffiness to furniture padding.

  Gathering a tuft of fluffy fur, she dropped it into a woven basket on the ground. Next to her, Storvi pecked at the ground and occasionally glanced up at her, cawing softly and rubbing his head against her leg. She’d already brushed a few of the other zarebs, but she liked spending the most time with Eas because he was Dero’s. Her soul mate had promised to take her up into the sky that night so he could show her the stars. She’d only ridden Eas once, too worried about Dero’s injury and meeting his family to enjoy the ride.

  Hearing a rattling sound, she stopped her brushing to look around. She didn’t hear the sound again, but Storvi squawked at her. She looked down at him and he returned her gaze with his dark eyes. Deciding she must have heard things, she returned to her brushing, gathering handfuls of fur for the basket. The rattling sound returned and Storvi squawked at her again. Eas moved a few steps away, but she grabbed his halter to stop him. “I’d think you’d like getting all the extra fur off since it’s warm out today,” she told him. “Hold still, I’m nearly done.”

  Storvi pecked at her leg. “Ouch! What in the stars?”

  She shooed him away by pushing him with her foot. His fur was bristled on his head, the white standing out starkly against the black, and he cawed angrily. The rattling sound continued and she looked around, trying to find the source. Storvi gave her another piercing squawk as Eas turned his long neck and grabbed her upper arm in his large beak. He jerked her off her feet and tossed her in the air. She screamed in surprise, but as she fell toward the ground, she saw something black and green lunge from the grass where she’d been standing. The creature had shiny scales and curly horns, and fangs glinted in its open jaws. A tail swished behind it, the rattling sound coming from a strange horn protruding from the end. Storvi cawed shrilly, caught the creature in his beak, and devoured it. As her back connected with the ground and the air whooshed from her lungs, she realized that Eas had saved her from being bitten. Her head smacked against something hard and everything went black.

  * * *

  Dero heard the shouts of alarm from where he was working on a saddle for a young zareb. He hurried from the tent and found Eas and Storvi hovering around Tarihn, who was lying on the ground. There was a gash on her arm that was bleeding and she wasn’t moving. He raced toward her. Several males were trying to get to her, but Eas and Storvi were snapping and cawing at them.

  “What happened?” Dero demanded. Eas swung his head toward him and cawed so loudly that Dero cringed. He tried to move closer but Eas lunged, narrowly missing Dero’s hand.

  “Your zareb threw her,” Hoan said. “We tried to get to her to help, but they won’t let us near.”

  He called Tarihn’s name but she didn’t move. Worry spiked through him. Racing back into the tent, he grabbed several lengths of rope and returned, tossing one to Hoan and creating a loop in the other. Swinging the loop over his head, he caught Eas’s head and jerked it taut. The loop tightened around his neck and Dero pulled hard, dragging his zareb to the ground. Hoan caught Storvi in the same fashion, and in moments, the two zarebs were restrained.

  Dero left them to the others and went to Tarihn. She was breathing, but the scent of her blood was heavy in the air and he worried about how cold her skin was. Afraid to move her in case she had another injury, he sent Pasar to get Sloan. It felt like an eternity before Sloan and Warrick appeared, Warrick carrying a foldable stretcher made up of two wooden poles with hide stretched between them.

  Sloan asked what happened as she knelt next to Tarihn and examined her.

  “I didn’t see it, but the males who did said that Eas grabbed her and threw her. I don’t know why. He’s never attacked anyone before and he likes her.”

  Warrick’s brows rose. “Could she have hurt him and he reacted to it?”

  “I don’t know.”

  Sloan said, “She hit her head on the ground. That’s why she’s unconscious. We’ll move her to my tent until she wakes, and I can bandage her arm.”

  Dero turned to the males who were holding Eas and Storvi. The zarebs were screeching in fury, trying to get out of the bindings that held them. “Hold them until I return.”

  The males nodded. Satisfied they were being watched, Dero helped move Tarihn onto the carrier, grasping the handles on one end while Warrick grabbed the others.

  They followed Sloan to her tent, careful not to move too fast and jostle Tarihn unnecessarily. His parents met them after carrying her inside, and Warrick helped him move her to the pallet. His mama offered to help, so Sloan sent her to get fresh water to clean her wound.

  Dero looked at his mate. She was pale, which made the blood on her arm look even darker. He didn’t want to leave, but he knew that he had to take care of the zarebs. He gestured to his father to follow him as he ducked out of the tent.

  “We got word that she was injured by the zarebs,” Nelari said.

  “It was Eas and Storvi,” Dero said. “I don’t know what happened, but she could’ve died.”

  His papa stared at him in silence for a long moment. “I can deal with them.” His voice was low and even when he spoke, but Dero could see the emotion in his eyes. He was upset that Tarihn had been harmed.

  Dero shook his head. “They’re my responsibility, and so is Tarihn. I failed her, but I won’t fail in this.”

  “I’ll stay until she wakes or you return,” he said.

  Dero nodded, glanced at the tent, and turned on his heels, heading toward the stable tent where the zarebs were being held. He’d raised Eas from a fledgling. The beast was as much part of Dero’s family as his brothers, but regardless of what had prompted the injury, the zareb had crossed a line by harming Tarihn. He would do a small favor for the beasts by killing them swiftly, but they would die that day.

  There was no other option.

  * * *

  Tarihn woke slowly to the sound of voices. Her head was throbbing and her body ached. She wasn’t sure where she was, but she was lying on a pallet and not the ground, which was the last thing she remembered.

  “He’s going to kill him and the little one?” a female said.

  “He has no choice. They injured her,” a male replied.

  Tarihn tried to focus, opening her eyes. Her vision was blurry, but after blinking several times it cleared.

  “Dero must be so distraught,” the female said. “He raised him.”

  Clarity spread through Tarihn swiftly and she sat up. Her head swam and her vision dimmed. Someone grabbed her shoulders and tried to push her down. When she could see clearly, she saw Sloan attempting to make her lie down.

  “Dero’s killing who?” Tarihn demanded, pushing at Sloan’s hands. “Let me up!”

  “You have a head injury,” Sloan said in a firm voice.

  Tarihn saw Nelari and Yelda. “Answer me!”

  Nelari moved closer, “The zarebs injured you. They can’t be allowed to injure another.”

  “For stars’ sake, Sloan, let me up!” Tarihn wiggled away from Sloan and stood, ignoring the aches in her head and body. “You’ve got it wrong! Eas and Storvi saved me from some weird scaly thing. Where is he?”

  “Are you certain?” Yelda asked as she joined them.

  “Yes!”

  “Oh no,” Yelda said, putting her hand over her heart. “You’re too late.”

  Tears filled Tarihn’s eyes. She wanted to sink down to the floor and cry for the zarebs, but she knew she couldn’t do that. There could sti
ll be time. “Where is Dero?”

  “At the stables,” Nelari said.

  She lurched for the door, shoving the flap aside and rushing out. Her arm, now covered with thick bandages, burned as she pumped her arms and raced toward the stables. Her feet pounded on the ground and she breathed hard, hoping that she would make it in time. As she neared the tent stable, she saw a group of males gathered outside of the fenced area where she’d been grooming Eas and Storvi. She screamed Dero’s name, begging him to stop.

  He stood before Eas and Storvi, who were tied to a post. They were wrapped with rope from their feet to their necks, their wings pressed tight to their bodies. They struggled on the ground, unable to rise to their feet or move away because of how close to the post they were tied. Dero lifted his hands, the sunlight glinting off a long blade, and her heart nearly stopped as she realized she was about to witness their deaths.

  She screamed his name again, closing the distance to the group and sliding to her knees in front of the zarebs. “Dero, stop!”

  He froze, the blade poised high above his head. “Ilora? What are you doing?”

  “Don’t kill them,” she said as she panted for breath. “They saved me.”

  He lowered the blade to his side with a frown. “Eas hurled you across the pasture. You could have been killed!”

  “No! There was some creature on the ground. It had green and black scales and rattled. Storvi tried to get me to move first, and then Eas, and when I didn’t get the hint, Eas grabbed me by the arm and pulled me away. I don’t think he meant to hurt me. He saved me.”

  “A creature with black and green scales? Did it have horns on its head?” Villi asked.

  She nodded. “When I was in the air, I looked back and saw it lunging at me. Do you know the creature?”

  “It’s a staplig,” Villi said. “They’re deadly.

  Dero suddenly looked stricken. He dropped to his knees and wrapped his arms around her. “I didn’t know.”

  She cupped his face. “How could you kill them without talking to me?”

  “It’s part of our laws. If a beast harms a person, they have to be destroyed so that others aren’t at risk.”

  “Set them free. I’m okay.”

  “No, you’re not,” he said, lifting her arm. Blood seeped through the bandage, turning the pale strips of fabric red. “But it could have been worse.”

  He took a small knife from the sheath on his leg and began to cut the ropes from Eas. Villi set Storvi free. Tarihn lifted her zareb into her arms and he cawed softly, nuzzling her neck. Eas rose to his feet, his feathers ruffled and an angry snort blasting from his beak. He shook himself out and stretched his wings, and then he took to the sky with a furious bellow.

  “Where’s he going?” she asked.

  “He’s mad,” Dero said. “I don’t blame him.”

  “Will he come back?”

  “I hope so. But for now, I need to get you back to Sloan’s.”

  “She’s going to be mad at me,” Tarihn said sheepishly. “I pushed her away when she was trying to make me lie down.”

  “She’ll understand.”

  He lifted Tarihn and Storvi into his arms and said to Villi, “I guess I don’t need your help, brother.”

  “It’s a good reason not to.” He smiled. “I’ll put the blade away. Go take care of your female.”

  Dero carried her to Sloan’s tent. Sloan, arms crossed and foot tapping rapidly on the ground, waited outside. “I guess you successfully saved the zarebs?”

  “Yes, she did,” Dero said.

  “Sorry, no furry creatures inside the medical tent,” Sloan told her.

  Yelda smiled and reached for Storvi. “I’ll stay with him until you’re patched up again.”

  Storvi squawked a bit but Tarihn shushed him and he settled in Yelda’s arms. Dero carried her into Sloan’s tent and set her on the pallet.

  “Let’s see what you did,” Sloan said.

  The bandages were carefully removed, and Tarihn could see two cuts in her arm where Eas’s beak had sliced into her flesh. The cuts had been closed with stitches but several of them had broken, causing the wounds to bleed again.

  “You were unconscious when I did these the first time. Now I’ll need to numb the area so you don’t feel the needle.”

  “I’m sorry I ruined your stitches,” Tarihn said. “But I’m not sorry that I saved Eas and Storvi.”

  While Sloan cleaned the wound and then applied a numbing gel to her skin, Dero told Nelari about the staplig. His brows rose. “I haven’t seen one of those in years. They usually stay close to the mountain. We’ll need to search the fenced area to see if we can find it.”

  “Storvi ate it,” Tarihn told them. “I saw him grab it in his jaws before I hit my head.”

  “Yuck,” Sloan said. “Zarebs are so odd.”

  “And protective,” Dero said. “Not only did they save Tarihn, but they were attempting to keep her from being harmed further by not allowing anyone to get close.”

  “You trained Eas well,” Nelari said. “You should be proud.”

  “I am. He took off, but hopefully he’ll be back. I promised Tarihn a ride to see the stars.”

  “I hope he comes home soon, too,” Tarihn said.

  As if on cue, Yelda let out a surprised squeak and a loud caw echoed outside of the tent. “Is that Eas?” Tarihn asked.

  Dero moved to the flap and opened it. Eas ducked his head and looked at Tarihn, cawed another time, and then snapped his beak at Dero.

  She laughed. “I think he’s still mad at you.”

  “He’ll get over it. I feed him,” Dero said.

  “Thank you, Eas,” she called.

  Eas squawked and dug his clawed feet into the ground, ruffling his feathers with a huff.

  “I’ve never seen a zareb act like this,” Sloan said. “It’s almost like he came to check on you.”

  Tarihn smiled. “I guess I’m just that irresistible.”

  Dero winked at her. “You certainly are.” To Eas, he said, “She’s mine.”

  Sloan laughed. “Males. They’re the same on either side of the mountains.”

  Chapter 9

  Dero wanted to carry Tarihn from Sloan’s tent to their own, but she insisted on walking despite of his protests. She went right to Eas and leaned against him, resting her head on his back and draping her arms over him. Dero watched as his bird, the one he’d raised from a fledgling, purred and rested its head against her.

  “I think she broke your zareb,” Warrick said with a chuckle as he joined him.

  “I’m just happy she’s well. If I have to train another zareb because he wants to be hers, then that’s okay.”

  Tarihn didn’t lift her head from Eas’ back when she said, “I don’t think he’s mine or yours. I think he’s ours.”

  Dero chuckled. “If Eas will forgive me for nearly killing him.”

  Dero’s father joined them. “We found a nest of stalig eggs in the pasture. They were laid in a shallow hole and hidden under leaves. There was a female with the eggs.”

  “Then the male was protecting his nest and mate,” Dero said.

  Nelari nodded. “Some of our males are going over the area again just to be sure it’s the only nest, but I do believe it was just a coincidence that Tarihn was grooming the zarebs near the nest and the stalig felt threatened. The eggs and female have been destroyed, and we’ve put listanstone powder in the hole and surrounding area before filling it back up with dirt.”

  “What’s listanstone powder?” Tarihn asked.

  “It will keep any other staligs from trying to make a nest there. Since the male and female were killed, it’s unlikely that any others would come this way to make a nest, but if they do, they’ll move on because the powder burns them.”

  “But it’s okay for the zarebs?”

  Dero smiled at his soul mate. “Yes, ilora.”

  She said something softly to Eas, who ruffled his feathers and cawed. Storvi squawked several times
at her side, and she giggled.

  “What’s so humorous, my soul mate?” Dero called out.

  “Just talking to my boys,” she said. She straightened, leaving one arm on Eas’s back and resting her hand on Storvi’s head. “I want to go to the stars tonight. We still can, can’t we?”

  “If Sloan says it’s safe for you. You were injured recently,” he reminded her.

  “I’m aware,” she said dryly, rolling her eyes.

  After checking with Sloan that it was safe for Tarihn to fly, they said goodbye and walked with the zarebs to the tent stable. He opened the gate for them and Tarihn strode into the tent, returning with a brush and the woven basket she collected fur in.

  “I thought you might like to rest,” he said, leaning against the top rail of the fence. She entered through the other gate. Eas and Storvi moved right to her, making soft, happy sounds as she began to groom Eas.

  “I wanted to finish what I started.” She moved the brush confidently over his glossy, furred back, but Dero saw her gaze dart periodically to the ground.

  “The staligs are gone, ilora.”

  “I know. I’m just checking,” she said, smiling at him. “Join me?”

  He went into the stable, grabbed a brush, then selected another of the zarebs from a stall and brought him into the fenced area. He stood near Tarihn, brushing the zareb with firm strokes.

  “You know what?” she asked after several minutes of silence had passed.

  “What, ilora?”

  “I think Eas and Storvi adopted me.”

  He paused and looked at her over the back of the zareb. “What?”

  “They’re still acting protective. Look at how Storvi is watching the ground. They’re guarding me.”

  He walked over to them and put his hand on Eas’s neck. Eas looked down at him, his dark gaze unwavering. “You did well, Eas. You saved my soul mate. I’m sorry I nearly killed you.”

  “Do you think he understands?” Tarihn asked.

  Eas dropped his head and butted lightly against Dero’s shoulder. He chuckled. “I think he does.”
