River's Run(30)

River couldn’t believe her eyes as she and Torak stepped into the foyer of the North House. Women poured out of rooms, down stairs, and through doors to surround Torak kissing him all over, running their hands over his body, and saying all kinds of things that made River blush furiously. She had never heard women talk like that, not even in the movies. Torak just stood there smiling at the women letting them kiss and pet him as if he was some type of forgotten favorite pet just rediscovered. The icing on the cake came when a tall, thin woman several years older than River came down the stairs wearing a beautiful but very skimpy gown. The gown itself was practically see-through and the top, what there was of it, didn’t even cover all of her nipples. River gawked for a minute before turning to stare at Torak. He just smiled as the tall woman came to him and pulled his head down for a deep kiss.



River felt sick to her stomach as she watched the woman run her hands over Torak’s body as she pressed herself into him. Unable to stomach any more, River turned on her heel and walked out the front doors which still stood open and down the steps.



“Oh My Lord, I have missed you greatly.” Javonna said huskily. She had heard Torak was back and had prepared carefully for his return wearing a gown she knew would entice him to her bed. Pressing herself against him, she let him feel her nipples as they swelled at the thought of him loving them.



Torak smiled down on Javonna as he gently pulled her arms from around his neck. She had been one of his frequent lovers in his house and he had enjoyed her very much for a time but now that he had River he found he did not like her touching him. She smelled overwhelmingly of a flowered perfume and her curves did not feel as soft as River’s did in his arms. Even though she was experienced in knowing how to bring a man to the height of arousal he found he had no desire for her.



Pulling her arms down and holding them so she could not wrap them around his neck again, Torak said loudly, “I would like to present, Lady River, my mate, Head of the House of Kassis, and future mother to the heirs of Kassis.”



Torak turned looking at the place where he had left River standing when he had entered his House to be greeted. He thought she would be highly impressed with the number of females under his protection as it showed he was a very powerful man to have so many. Instead, she was nowhere to be seen. Twirling around to scan the room, he called out for her only to get no response.





River was beyond furious. She was mortified and humiliated. She angrily wiped at the tears spilling down her face. That arrogant man-whore. That…that slimy weasel. That…she was so mad she couldn’t even think of any more bad things to call him. That jerk! She thought was a nod. She had never been so shocked or hurt in all her life. To think he told her she was his. Fat lot that meant! Torak must have had over twenty women pawing all over him and that…that one woman wasn’t even dressed! Practically running now she paused at the center of the garden unsure of which way to go…Star or Jo. It was only when she rounded the center fountain that she saw Jo sitting on the edge of it holding a crying Star.



“What happened?” River asked as she came around the fountain to kneel in front of the two sisters. She could tell Jo had been crying too.



“Those…Those…” Jo choked on her rage. “Assholes!” She practically screamed her frustration at not finding a better word to call them.



“You too, uh?” River asked.



Star pulled away to look at River, tearing streaming down her puffy cheeks. “Jazin must have had a hundred women pawing on him! When he asked me why I was upset as they were trying to take his clothes off of him right in front of me I lost it. I called him a gigolo and took off running.”



Jo looked at River, “Same here only I decked him when he tried to kiss me after all those other women had kissed him. Like I really wanted to taste them on him!”



River nodded sitting next to the sisters. “Torak had about twenty women pawing on him. One of the women was wearing this see-through number with her nipples showing. I just walked out while she was shoving her tongue down his throat.” River sniffed.



Jo looked at Star and River with determination. “I want to go home. To Earth. Today wouldn’t be too soon as far as I’m concerned. At least there I know what assholes guys can be sometimes. Here it seems to be the norm.”



River and Star both nodded in agreement. This helped them see the decision they had been reluctant to make. It was time to go home to Earth. They did not belong here, in this world. River stood up putting her hand out. The other two looked at it for a minute before putting theirs on top in a show of solitary.
