Warriors of Taulon Prequel: Warriors of Taulon, #0

By Rayne Reilly

Warriors of Taulon Prequel

The Taulon Warriors will risk life and limb to protect the most precious commodity in the universe: Females.

 

On the planet of Taulon, men outnumber females 1000 to 1. If a man is lucky enough to find a mate, he must protect her, cherish her, and above all else .... never hurt a female.

When Za'haan finds his mate unfaithful, the seasoned warrior throws himself into his work to hide his heartache. Desperate for space between him and his homeworld, Za'haan accepts a mission that will take him to a distant galaxy where a rival race, known for its brutality, has established a thriving slave trade.

The Taulon Warriors will do whatever it takes to rescue the enslaved females and return with them to their homeworld. But this mission will bring Za'haan and his crew into uncharted space against a powerful, vicious enemy.

And perhaps bring Za'haan closer to his destiny/his one true love.

 

Please note this prequel is just an introduction to the main character for the first book in the series. And also to introduce the Taulon race.

It takes place before Invasion.

It isn’t steamy like the next two books, sorry 😉 I guess you’ll have to read those too!

CHAPTER ONE

Somewhere in Taulon Space, in the Delphi Star System

Screams rang out as the blue-skinned warriors stormed the space outpost to free the captive females. Za’haan, the second in command, headed toward the cargo bay where the females were said to be held.

In front of the doors to the cargo bay, a pink-skinned male from the planet Sepra and several of his colleagues blocked Za’haan’s path.

Move out of the way now, Za’haan ordered. I will only tell you once.

You aren’t getting the females. We paid good money for them. They’re coming with us! The scrawny humanoid bleated. He stood crouched, a small-bladed weapon at the ready.

Za’haan stepped forward, disarmed the pink alien, and thrust its arm behind its back in one swift motion. The Sepran cried out in pain while another pink alien reached toward Za’haan.

Za’haan tilted his head to one side, glancing at him. When the male was close enough, Za’haan thrust his free fist out to one side. He struck the second male, sending the alien’s body across the room, hitting the wall before crumpling to the ground unconscious.

You Seprans are weak. Is that why you have to buy your females? Za’haan spat.

He held the arm of the ring leader while continuing to dispatch the assailants that came at him one by one. Like most Taulon men, he towered over the Sepran male and was much better built, standing at six-and-a-half feet tall.

He could hear heavy footfalls behind him and turned to look. He released the leader of the Sepran gang. The male quickly ran off in the opposite direction. Za’haan turned to see the rest of his team.

The warriors gave him a quick glance as they took care of the remaining rogue aliens.

Thank you for the assistance. Za’haan grinned as the group stood outside the cargo bay doors moments later.

Any time, responded one of the young warriors.

The code Za’haan had been given during his interrogations allowed him to gain access to the large area. The doors slid open.

He was relieved to see a handful of females naked and restrained, but alive.

He strode to the female closest to him first, motioning to his team to release the other captive females.

Are you okay? We are here to free you, Za’haan asked the terrified Eitanian female. The Eitanians were one of the most peaceful races Za’haan had encountered in his ten years as a warrior.

The Eitanian’s did not believe in violence of any kind. The planet’s inhabitants lived a quiet existence as farmers and shopkeepers.

It was only when they began to deal with off-worlders that the people of Eitania started to explore space at all.

The ebony-skinned female shivered as she gazed at Za’haan. He helped her to stand.

Thank you for saving us, she said in a hoarse voice.

Za’haan stepped back and turned his attention to the next female. One by one, the handful of captured females were freed.

Za’haan and the rest of the warriors escorted the females back to their ship.

Once aboard, Za’haan looked at the freed captives. The females stared back at him, some in fear, the rest with gratitude.

We have accommodations available for you if you will just follow this officer, Za’haan stated as he motioned to one of the crewmen who had joined them. "Help the females to acquire clothing from the recyclers. Make sure each of them is clothed, fed and
