Malver Part 1 Read online

pain.”

  He chuckles, “Dear, you have brought me no pain. You have only giving me joy and a reason to live on.”

  Her body jerks as she looks up into his eyes. “What? You did not wish to live?”

  His fingers start to glide over her back and arm. “Not without you.”

  Eyes wide and tear filled she slowly and gently reaches out to wrap her arms around his neck. He does not move not even an inch as she does it. She gently lays against his chest and places her head on his shoulder. He smiles as his heart starts to realize what it feels like to be wanted and needed by someone.

  Shouts start once more from outside his dwelling. He studies their words and soon comes to realize their village is under attack. His father rushes into the dwelling. “We are being attacked by Blackthorn Serpentians. They claim we have their leader's Tellianar.” Malver's eyes widen. “Yes, son, Tronarc confirmed the Blackthorn Serpentian is her Tellianar. But he is only after her to kill her.” His words sink into the pits of Malver's heart.

  “Then we kill him, before he gets to her.” He says with anger building by the second.

  “I have a Tellianar, who wishes for me to die?” Rose's words soon remind both of the men they are not alone.

  “Yes, but we will not let him kill you.” Sobilar says as he waits by the dwelling's entrance. “If any enter they will die.” His words are drowned out by the commotion outside the dwelling.

  Malver feels her fear and starts to heal it away. “It is going to be alright, Rose, I swear on my life. You will not die while I am still alive.” He places his free hand over the back of her head and holds her snug against his body.

  Tronarc soon enters, “Is she alright?” His question comes out fast and demanding. Tho he did not mean for it to sound that way.

  “Yes, she is just frightened.” Malver answers as Rose turns teary eyed to Tronarc.

  Tronarc rushes over to them, “Rose, I know you are frightened. Let me help you.” Her look questions his actions. “Let me put you to sleep. You will not be harmed I promise.”

  Her tears slow up as he glides his hand over her cheek. His sleeping affect soon takes over her. Her body becomes limp against Malver's chest. “She will be fine, Tronarc. If we need more help, I will call for you.”

  Tronarc nods at him and his father before leaving. The commotion increases by the minute. Then dead silence. Tronarc returns all covered in blood and very weary. “He is dead. The others retreated as soon as they saw him die.”

  Sobilar directs his hand towards the bathing area, “You may go wash off if you would like.” He strolls over to the bed and stares at Rose before heading to the bathing area.

  “She is sleeping peacefully.” Malver says as feels Tronarc's eyes wavering on Rose's sleeping form. “She has not moved at all.” A smile appears on his face, “Tho, she does smile and giggle in her sleep.”

  Tronarc chuckles, “I wish I could have seen that.”

  So Malver shows him through his thoughts. “See she is fine.”

  Their laughter brings attention from others. The guards at the door are soon laughing softly. “We heard her soft giggles from here. Even during the battle it was not hard to hear. It was to intriguing to not notice.”

  They both look at each other as Rose starts to giggle once again. Their eyes light up as her giggles increase. Both of them start to laugh aloud.

  Sobilar glares at them then snaps, “Hush you two, you will awaken her. Then I will have to wait till later to hear her cute giggles.”

  Tronarc and Malver stop their laughter but softly chuckle under their breaths as another giggle emerges from her lips.

  Tronarc steps out of the water and slowly sits down beside Malver and Rose. “She is so beautiful even more so while she is sleeping.” His hand caresses her arm softly. “She has the most delicate skin I have ever felt.” They both look at each other as she giggles again. “I love her giggle, it is very cute.”

  Malver looks towards his father, “So does my father.” He chuckles lightly as his father agrees with him.

  They both stop their laughter as they listen to newcomers enter the village. Malver is the first to speak, “Your father is here Tronarc. It seems your mother has come with him as well.”

  Tronarc brushes the back of his fingers along Rose's cheek. “Yes, it does seem they have come to visit our mate.”

  Sobilar motions to the guards and they rush out of the dwelling, soon returning with all their new guests. Setiana smile brightens as she sees her son caressing Rose's cheek. “Well, Tronarc, It seems to me that you may now have your hands full.” She laughs as his eyes glow with joy.

  “Yes, it does.” He motions for her to come closer. Which, she does without being asked twice. “Is she not beautiful, Mother?”

  Setiana's eyes brighten as she looks Rose over, “She is very beautiful. I love her hair it is so soft.” She says as she glides her fingers through it. “And the most beautiful shade of red.”

  Tronarc hugs his mother and then says, “Her name is Rose.”

  She then laughs, “I hope so, she looks like a Rose.” His confused expression reminds her they do not know the flowers of Earth. “A rose is a beautiful, soft, wonderful smelling flower on Earth. Most likely her parents named her after the flower.”

  Malver smiles, “So Rose is named after a flower? I do believe you are right Setiana, it does suit her well.” His eyes sparkle as Rose starts to awaken. “I believe our mate is finally waken up, Tronarc.”

  Setiana moves out of her son's arms. “Go ahead hug your woman. Do I need to tell you how to do everything?”

  They both look at each other then laugh, “Yes, Mother, I do believe you need to teach us everything.”

  Rose's eyes flutter open slowly, “What's so funny?” Is the first thing that slips out of her mouth. “You were fighting, now your laughing?”

  Setiana laughs, “Yeah, that's men for you.”

  Her laughter and words bring Rose's attention to her. “Hi,” she says softly as Tronarc takes her into his arms.

  Setiana smiles then replies, “Hello, Rose.” She giggles as Rose's smile grows. “You have a wonderful smile. I also love your name.”

  Rose blushes slightly then giggles, “Thank you.”

  “My name is Setiana. Tronarc is my son.” She says as Tronarc pulls Rose closer to his heart. “I do believe you may have put a spell on my son.” Everyone laughs as the two young women smile and embrace each other in a gentle hug. “I do believe you are expecting soon.” Rose says as she pulls away from Setiana's warm embrace. “How much longer do you have?”

  Setiana softly replies, “Any time now. She is so active. Her movements increase everytime her father’s talk to her.”

  Rose looks over towards the other men in the dwelling. “They are all you Tellianar's?”

  Setiana turns around and looks at the men, “Yes, they are.” She pauses then giggles, “Except Malver's father that is.”

  Rose giggles as well then smiles at Sobilar, “That's a shame, he is really nice.”

  Setiana steps back to get a better look at Rose, “You know, I do believe we are going to be best of friends.”

  Rose's eyes turn to Tronarc who is now smiling with pride at his mother, “I do believe you are right.” She finally says as her attention moves back to the young mother.

  Malver's heart rejoices anew as his mate talks to Setiana. He has never seen a female act so lovingly towards another female. She was a rare woman indeed, and for Tronarc to let him experience being her life mate filled him with a new life fire. His days from now on will be nothing but warm, exciting, and filled with love. His body starts to cry out as pain radiates through it once again.

  Tronarc turns to him, then places his right hand on Malver's arm.

  You need to rest more.

  Malver feels Tronarc's healing affect flow thru his body like a soft gentle carress.

  I know.

  He sighs then faces Tronarc.

  I do not wish to ever l
ose sight of her.

  His eyes dance as he hears the females laugh as they poke and tease the five leaders across the room. He chuckles lightly. “Your mother must have told, Rose, about the rule of no touching leaders.” His chuckling grows louder as he watches his father tease Rose back. “It seems they do not mind being touched by pure females.”

  Tronarc laughs softly then whispers, “I do believe, great and powerful leader, you yourself did not push her touch away neither.”

  His eyes glisten as his friend removes his healing touch. “How could I ever remove such a delightful touch as hers?”

  They laugh softly, than advert their eyes back to their mate. Sobilar looks their way then speaks aloud, “I do believe it is time for Malver to get some most needed rest.”

  Rose and Setiana stop their tickle attacks on him. They both turn towards to two males on the bed. Setiana grabs Rose's arm lightly, “You may come to our village any time you want.” Her smile brightens as Rose giggles and nods yes to her. “I have a few leader sons that we can have fun teasing.”

  To this all of the males start to laugh.

  Zulloclar gently grabs Setiana's waist and pulls her into his warm embrace. “Yes, I do believe you two are going to give us leaders a hard time.” His smile increases as Rose gently tickles Setiana. Setiana laughs and teases her new friend back. “Well, at least the leader guards will be having more work on their hands.”

  Tronarc gently embraces Rose, “That is true, Father, I do believe these two together can cause a lot of mischief.”

  Both females gasp then giggle as they see their mates
