Oh man...what happened... I was thinking about my actions and I want to apologize to Raj'ah for disrespecting him like that. I know he wants to help and I took advantage of that and made it worse. Then this creature came in and said those horrific words to me.
"You will be mine, Loute-Kalei!"
I was beyond scared and confused at the same time. He tried to jump me when I dodged him and ran into the bathroom. I locked the door and prayed for help. Then the creature came in and starting punching me in the stomach, grabbed my arms and wrists very hard and he threw me into the pool, holding me down under water with his hand. I tried to get some air, but he held onto me that I couldn't do anything. Darkness was coming to me when I felt hands pulling me out of the tub and after that..pure darkness. I opened my eyes and looked up at Raj'ah who was waiting for me. Immediately, I leaned over and coughed all the water out of me while I was trying to get my breathing to calm down, but Raj'ah already did that for me by putting his hand over my heart.
"I remembered being attacked by that creature..."
"We are called Yautjas." Raj'ah explained.
"Yauwtas?" I answered.
"Ya...ut...ja..." Raj'ah pronounced it for me.
"Ya..ut...ja..Yautja?"
"Good young one." Raj'ah nodded in approval.
"I was so scared that I ran into the bathroom and he tore down the door and tried to...to..."
I couldn't find the words. I began to shake until I heard Raj'ah purring.
"He...he...tried to..Ra..Ra..rape me..and tried to kill...me..."
Tears quickly fell down from my eyes. Raj'ah scooped me into his arms and purred some more.
"It's okay young one...I am here and you are safe."
"Did he...?"
"No he didn't penetrate you young one." I sighed in relief.
"He called me..loudi..kale...I don't know the rest."
"'Loudti-Kalei' means child maker. It's an insulting name for the females. That's the only thing the females are good at.
That hit me ton like bricks. True I am a child maker and carrier, but for someone to call a female like that was worse."
"Raj'ah..." I said, looking away from him.
"I'm...sorry about earlier."
"I know." Raj'ah nodded at her.
"Why did that...Yautja attack me?"
"You are menstruated are you not?"
I got up, felt pain in my body as Raj'ah helped me down on the bed. I looked inside my loincloth.
"Oh great..." I sighed, laying back down Lu'ki walked over with the tonic.
"Oh good you are awake ooman." She smiled and handed me the cup.
I looked at it very suspiciously. I looked at her and at Raj'ah as he nodded. Sighing softly, I brought the cup to my lips and took a drink. It is so sweet that I managed to drink all of it. I looked at my bruises and cuts, they healed up right away. I didn't feel any cramps much to my surprise. Lu'ki has something in her hand. A cylinder object. A tampon maybe?
"For your menstruation cycle." Lu'ki explain as she went in front of me and opened the sheet.
I began to panic, no one has ever inserted a tampon for me before, except for me.
"I can do it.." I said, but I was too late. She was already ready. I took a deep breath and all the sudden, I heard Lu'ki say this.
"All done." I opened my eyes and looked at her. That's it?
"It's very big I know, but it helps during your menstruation cycle."
"Thank you." I smiled at her.
I got up from the medic bed when all the sudden, I felt very sleepy. Raj'ah, fully aware of this scooped me into his arms and bowed his head at the healer.
"Raj'ah..." I looked up at him very sleepily.
"Don't leave me...please.."
Raj'ah looked at me while I immediately fell fast asleep, only to hear those words from him:
"I will never leave you..Alex..."
Raj'ah watched the Ooman fall fast asleep in his arms. After this morning events, he was gonna reconsider leaving Alex in another room.
"You know how females are." Lu'ki explained to Raj'ah.
"She must have emotional issues while she is menstruating. She knows that she didn't mean to say whatever she said to you."
Raj'ah looked down at Alex sleeping in his arms. Lu'ki's got a point. He doesn't want to abandon her. Thinking about this, Raj'ah thanked Lu'ki and walked back to his room with Alex in his arms. While walking back to his room, he thought about this. Alex doesn't even realize that it was him who saved her when she was a pup, and right this moment when she was about to die, that it was he who saved her from death. Making a decision, Raj'ah looked at the guards who were finished fixing up his room. He walked in and it looked normal as if it never happened. He walked over to the bed and gently placed Alex down on the piles of soft fur. She snuggled into the furs until she fell fast asleep. Raj'ah watched her sleep and thought about the situation. Maybe she was hormonal true, but will she get scared again? He sat down next to her and observed her sleeping form. He touched her hair which was pretty thick. Her skin felt so soft and smooth. He looked over her body with his heat sensor. Her body is very cold and there is little warmth in her. Making a quick decision, Raj'ah took off his armor and laid down next to her, warming her up. After awhile, her body returned to its normal state. He was about to get up when he felt hands grabbing him.
"Please..." Alex begged for him to stay with her.
Raj'ah looked at her for awhile until he laid back down and took Alex into his arms, purring for her. The purring feels like a lullaby for her as she immediately fell asleep while Raj'ah did the same.
