All Chapters of Married To A Hunter: Fascinating & Terrifying: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

The next time we stopped it started raining. One caught the water with plastic bags, which he attached to the branches of a tree. He hadn't spoken a word to me since our little argument, and I didn't seek any further conversation either. If he wanted to walk next to a silent human shell that didn't bother him, I would grant him that wish. After we had set up the tent - and I helped him without being asked - I slipped in and swapped my soaked clothes for dry ones, while he distr

He straightened up and freed me from the last of my clothes, which he tossed into a corner of the tent. He then took off all his clothes, and I regretted not being able to see him like this in the dark. It would have been an unforgettable sight.But I felt him all the more. All of my other senses were sharpened in the dark. I smelled our excitement, the scent of which mingled; felt his rough hands brushing my sides, sliding down to my hairless pubic area and exploring me th

A short time later we left again and I followed the Hunter leader with my head bowed. I didn't want to look at him and inevitably conjure up memories. I struggled to fight the turmoil within me and concentrated on keeping up with One. At the same time, I continued to refine my plan. After the events of the previous evening, I hated going back to headquarters with him. There he would investigate the attack and have fun with his lover in his free time. And I ... I would waste my time feeling disappointed and possibly even jealous. At least I assumed that what I felt just thinking of the red-haired woman at the head's side was jealousy. I hadn't known it before, but had heard a lot about it. And it didn't

Shortly afterwards we went on and I withdrew completely, not speaking a word to my companion, although he let out something from time to time. Trifles like the name of a plant that grew along the way and was poisonous.What should I say about that? Wow, it's great that you know so much about flora and fauna, Taleon. You are so well read. Hardly likely. I showed no reaction and was happy when he also fell silent again.  

When I came to, I was in a clean, soft bed, staring up at the white ceiling. One look was enough and I knew I was in the infirmary of the Hunter headquarters. Relieved, I closed my eyes and lay there a moment before I finally sat up and grimaced painfully because everything hurt me.Images of the attack by the wild dogs streamed in on me and made me shiver. We survived - again. Apparently I was a magnet for danger, because how else could it be explained that I had had to fight f

I was sitting on the bed with my knees drawn up, my arms around them and my chin resting on them, when the Hunter leader spoke to me the next morning about how things would go next.I couldn't look at him - I was still agitated too much - and fixed my gaze on my bare feet while repeatedly suggesting a nod or saying "Yes, sir" when he wanted an answer. I was surprised when he told me that I could stay at headquarters for now. 

On the one hand, it had to be clarified whether the attack on the hut was aimed at me or One and his men. Then there was the fact that my father was on the Hunter's lists. How so? And how was the connection to Alexis Silva? How did I fit in there? Did I even fit in there? Did I belong somewhere? To someone To something? Who was Riley McDermont in this world?My thoughts were interrupted by another visit. It was Nikk who came into the room after knoc

When I woke up, it was dark in the room, only a few buttons on the devices around me glowed and beeped softly. I still felt very foggy and my mouth was bone dry, making it difficult to swallow.I sat up carefully and paused when I felt dizzy. With a sigh, I leaned back and closed my eyes. What had happened? Why did I feel so miserable as a dog?

"You wanted to see me?" Nikk sat on the edge of the bed when he came to see me the next day and looked at me with a lighthearted grin."Right." I tried to return his smile. "If your offer is still open, I'd like to take it," I added quickly, before changing my mind. In the past few hours I had refined my plan and now I wanted to put it into practice. Step one: return to Nikk and gain his trust.

"Welcome back, Blondie!" Savannah smiled when we met outside the cafeteria a few days later.I rolled my eyes at her nickname and smiled back at her. It amazed myself, but I was really happy to see her. After the three days Nikk had barely left me alone, her face was a welcome change from his.
