My cock was hard before we even got to the bedroom as I scented her desire. I pressed it against her core and tweaked her nipples with my thumbs as I kissed her. Nora moaned her approval and hugged me tighter with one arm around my back and the other hand caressing the back of my neck.
I moved us toward the bed, and we sort of fell into it together. We shifted around until my cock was poised at her entrance. I slid it in, and I was home. We both moaned our pleasure at being joined together again, basking in our oneness.
I kissed her face and nibbled her ear and neck as she arched her back rubbing her taut nipples against my chest until I lowered my weight, so I was pressing them against her chest. I knew the sensations went straight to her core as her inner walls contracted around my cock.
I fucked her slowly at first, teasing her with slow, intermittent thrusts rotating my hips to make sure I hit her clit. It didn’t take long to make her cum, but I wasn’t nearly finished. I paused to let her orgasm play out before I started thrusting slowly as before then faster and harder.
“Oh, yes! Hell, yes!” she cried and thrust upward to meet me clinging to my shoulders for leverage.
I could feel her cum again, but that didn’t slow her down as our bodies slammed together. I held out as long as I could, driving each thrust hard and deep rubbing back and forth against her breasts, titillating her pebbled nipples.
“Oooh….Oooh….Oooh” she was moaning in the same rhythm as our bodies came together, alerting me that she was approaching another climax. I could feel my release growing low in my back and spreading through my pelvis to my balls and my cock.
This time when the orgasm crashed through her, I came with her, so fucking hard I let out a howl. It was pure ecstasy, Nora and I enthralled in our passion, coming together as soulmates. We filled each other with pleasure.
As always, we lingered a long time joined together kissing and caressing. No matter how many times we made love, it was always a little different journey that we took together. It was still special because she was meomee, my Nora.
Eventually, we slept because we needed to wake up in the middle of our sleep period to move over to the Kurellis temporarily. We weren’t fully trained members of the Brigade yet, so Nora and I were assigned to check in the slaves as they boarded and assign them to quarters. Her friend Scarlet was stationed at the hatchway.
Things were going well until Sargan militaries showed up and started questioning Scarlet about the people that were boarding the Kurellis. One of those bastards shot her in the back while she was trying to get some of our rescues aboard to safety. They made a big mistake because her mate Pyrr saw one of them do it. He killed them both and ran for Scarlet. Nora led them to sickbay, and I ran to secure the hatchway. No more Sargans came our way because Commander Maktu’s team took care of the rest of them.
It seemed like an endless stream of people kept coming to board the ship, directed by the AI team that had taken control of the slaves’ bioimplants. They comprised a full third of the workforce, most providing menial labor with some of the females providing sexual services to the patrons of the station. Rescuing beings from primarily non-space faring worlds from slavers was basically what I did in the Alliance Defense Force and Law Enforcement.
It seemed fitting that I should continue that work with the Farseek Mercenaries. A couple of hours later, I got word that Scarlet would recover. I was happy for my friend Pyrr and for my Nora who is Scarlet’s friend. We were just waiting for a few more stragglers before we took our leave.
Our escape was further complicated because we couldn’t release the docking clamps on the Kurellis, so Admiral Degatu ordered them to use the engines to pull away. They did and ripped a big hole in the docking arm. A few Sargans got sucked into the vacuum of space. It was regrettable, but I did not feel much remorse after Scarlet was hurt.
Though one of the Dreadnaughts was severely damaged, they put in on the far side of Tegliar Station and appropriated what they needed to fix it and escaped.
CHAPTER NINE
NORA
Scarlet had us all scared for a few hours after the Sargan shot her. Pyrr was beside himself but thanks to the nanites and medications she received, she recovered completely. That little dinner party Harper, Zoe and I organized in her honor after the rendezvous was probably the best time we’d had together since we had been taken from Earth.
She was thrilled with the puppy as I knew she would be. Fortunately, we found a waste removal system for the dog that would fit in their quarters. We didn’t know how it would work out having a dog on a battleship, but knowing what it meant to Scarlet, we thought she would work it out.
Life went back to normal for us once we got back to Dread One. We went back to training and met with Tahvo Yaktu from AI who showed us how to replicate characters and sets in 3D to make our freedom story to distribute through the Sargan Empire. We scripted it from memory and embellished it a bit by combining aspects of the Civil War with the Revolutionary War. Once we had the script entered into the AI system and created the characters, the system compiled it into a holographic production like their stories.
We distributed it through the Brigade ships, using them as a test audience. They found it both moving and entertaining. When I said, we took liberties we turned some of the male historical figures into females and set the revolution in the twentieth century. Whether it would sow the seeds of unrest in the Sargan Empire would remain to be seen, but it was a definite hit with the Farseek Mercenaries.
Yaktu’s team had a plan to distribute the production directly to entertainment systems in the sector bouncing the signal through various communication arrays so it would be nearly impossible to trace and even harder to censor.
Training took the rest of our time, but that was a good thing. It would take almost two months for us to get near the Julconi system. Sahvin finished qualifying for the armored ground fighters. I was both proud and worried about the danger of the mission.
“Don’t worry, Nora,” Sahvin assured me. “This is not new to me. I was a soldier in the Alliance Defense Force for four years. I am experienced with armored combat with suits very similar to the one our Farseek Brigade uses.”
I slid my arms around his waist and laid my head against his chest. We had just come back to our quarters from third meal. “I don’t doubt your skill, sweetheart, I’m just scared. When I was living alone on Earth working extra shifts every week, I never knew what it was like to have someone in my life to love me and to love like I have come to love you. I don’t ever want to go back to that.”
Keeping my arms around him, I looked up at him as he put his arms around me.
“I will do my best to come back to you, I promise,” he said meeting my gaze. “This quest is not what I had planned for my life before I was taken. But now, I feel I should help them because they helped me even though I am not of their kind.”
“I agree, but this prison planet sounds like a fortress. It sounds dangerous,” I said.
“That’s why they're bringing in all ten dreads and we’re taking three companies down to subdue the militaries. We’ve got complete maps and building ID’s of the slave colony,” he said. “Commander Maktu and Pyrr think our biggest obstacle in this rescue will be the logistics of getting all those people off the planet.”
“That’s why all the shuttles from eight of the Dreads are going to make relay runs between Julconi and the Kurellis,” I said.
“With you and your Earth friends there to welcome them. It will free my mind from worry for your safety to know that you will be safe on the Kurellis,” Sahvin said and kissed my forehead.
“That’s what we thought about Scarlet’s assignment at Tegliar Station. I’m still wrapping my head around being on a spaceship in a part of the galaxy so far from home the nobody knows where it is,” I laughed softly. “It must be about nine months now. We were on the slave ship for nearly three---and close to six now with the Farseek Mercenaries.”
“And you didn’t belie
ve in aliens,” Sahvin laughed. “Now you are mated to one.”
“Who’d have thought?” I pressed against him and looked up meeting his gaze. I could feel his erection against my belly. It had been barely two months since our first bonding, and we were still like randy newlyweds. “I would like to someday, do something like a wedding ceremony to celebrate our mating---if you wouldn’t mind.”
“We can do that if it would please you. We already said the mating vow,” he said, “That is all that’s required to register as bond mates.”
“Weddings are customary on Earth in my country,” I said. “Some are very low key while others are flamboyantly extravagant. I’ve been talking with Scarlet and Harper. We thought something like we did for Scarlet to give her the puppy. Only we could take turns making our pledges as couples.”
“I would be happy to tell the whole Universe that I am your mate and will be as long as I draw breath.”
“Me too, darling,” I told him and slid my hand down over his hard cock that was pressing against me through our clothes. “Let me take care of this for you.”
I didn’t have to offer twice.
CHAPTER TEN
SAHVIN
I couldn’t blame Nora for being worried about our next mission. Things could easily go wrong at every turn. After being taken and enslaved myself, then saved by the mercenaries I could not hesitate to help them free more of their people.
Since I was mated to one of the Earth women as Pyrr Avantu and Commander Maktu were, I had been drawn into their inner circle. They gave me the rank of Lieutenant because of my experience and skill which I demonstrated through testing and performance. I was placed in the armored company and fitted with a superior full body armor suit and weapons array. That was one advantage of defending the Consortium, Pyrr told me. Their technology was the best in the sector.
Even though I officially finished my training, I practiced in full armor almost daily with my team. Lives would depend on my ability to fight as though I were born to it.
As we neared Julconi, Commander Maktu called a meeting of officers and team leaders after our regular training session.
“Dread Eight contacted us while we were in training. In addition to some three thousand Uatu in the slave camp on Julconi, there are also several hundred Uatu among the general population.” Commander Maktu began.
“Lieutenant Commander Prevatu is sending down a team to seek out those people and direct them to a rendezvous point where they can be picked up.”
“Is that even feasible?” Pyrr asked. “It’s chaos, down there. Over 100,000 inmates free to wreak havoc.”
“But, they have no modern weapons. They are relegated to using bow and arrow, spears, knives, and swords. Our warriors will be fully armed, but not armored.” Maktu replied. “They went in as new prisoners with their weapons concealed. They’ve been there for a week, now. We should know by the time we get there how many additional Uatu they ferreted out.
“Between the eight Dreads, we will have in the area by the time we get there we will have twenty-four shuttles landing and taking off in succession. If each shuttle makes two trips, we should be able to get our people off-world with no more than two trips each.”
“That’s going to take every spare pilot we have plus the civilian pilots from the Kurellis,” Pyrr said.
“It will take almost forty hours to transport almost four thousand more or less, plus our forces,” Maktu added. “While we are down on the planet we will have four Dreads in high orbit patrolling and scanning for battlecruisers. There are no new ships bringing prisoners for at least a month.”
“Are the females going to be helping with loading passengers like they did at Tegliar Station?” I asked.
“No,” Maktu said, “while they are more than capable, we cannot afford to risk any of our females on a mission like this. It’s risky enough having them on the Dreads, but soulmates must not be separated for long periods.”
“Plus, we have a shortage of females to males, two to one,” Pyrr said. “We don’t have enough to repopulate at this point. We may have to seek them elsewhere.”
“Perhaps there are some females imprisoned that we can liberate as well,” I suggested. “We have enough room and supplies on Kurellis to support over ten thousand people.”
“That’s a good suggestion,” Maktu said. “I will send word to our teams to liberate as many females as possible.
“But what quality of female will we get from a prison?”
“There are probably many men and women who haven’t really done anything,” I replied. “People like those who started the revolution in the Earth women’s story---dissenters.
“The Sargan people are as much slaves as we were. Most of them just don’t realize it. The Empire rules their lives, but by providing slaves to work for them, they were under the illusion they were in charge. They have been indoctrinated since childhood to dedicate their lives to the service of the Empire. Anyone who dissents and tries to turn others against the Empire can easily end up in prison.”
“Well, said Sahvin. AI is sending that story out continuously at intervals,” Maktu said. “It might take years to have any effect, but it’s certainly worth doing. That’s all I have for you today. Dismissed.”
CHAPTER ELEVEN
NORA
The closer we got to Julconi, the harder it became for me not to worry about Sahvin’s mission. Or to be more accurate, it was a stark terror that he wouldn’t come back. Although I tried to stay positive, it was hard, and I couldn’t help that my anxiety spilled over into our relationship.
I spend more time in training to become a medical tech than was required. I went to the gym for extra sessions and spent more time with the others from the slave ship. Maybe if I spent more time away from him, it wouldn’t hurt as much if he didn’t come back. I knew I shouldn’t be thinking that way but raiding a prison planet where they were outnumbered a thousand to one sounded suicidal.
Sometimes, I felt on the verge of panic, and being with Sahvin seemed to increase those feelings rather than soothe them. I didn’t realize I had been withdrawing until Sahvin called me on it when I was getting ready to go to the gym after the third meal for the third time in a week. I had already been there four times during the days as well.
“Nora, why are you going to the gym again? You already went once today, and you had hand combat training too,” he said as I was changing. “Your body is perfect, sweet one. I think you are avoiding me, and I’m not sure I understand why?”
I looked up at him, and I could see the hurt in his eyes as it dawned on me what I had been doing. I realized that it wouldn’t help, no matter what I did. I would still be devastated if Sahvin didn’t come back from the mission.
My eyes teared up as I looked at him and I wiped them away with my fingers. “Oh, Sahvin, it’s not you. It’s this mission… Sometimes I get so scared… Afraid you won’t come back.” More tears came, and I couldn’t stop them. “I feel like I waited my whole life to find you. I love you so much.”
Then I was wrapped in his arms sobbing against his chest. He rubbed my back and stroked my hair and let me cry. It was exactly what I needed.
“Nora, meomee, I am scared too. That will make me careful. I know my job, and I will do everything I can to come back to you,” he murmured against my hair. “I’m not going alone or unarmed. We have recon teams on the planet already.”
“I-I know all this, but it doesn’t make the fear go away.” I had almost cried it out by then. “I’m sorry, Sahvin, I didn’t mean to hurt you. I know you have to do this.”
“If you want to keep busy, so you don’t have to think about I, I have a better way,” he said with a familiar gleam in his eyes as I looked up at him.
That’s all it took for my body to react as he held me tightly. I suddenly wanted to be naked with him on me and in me, mouth fused to mine in a long, tongue probing kiss.
So instead of changing to go to the gym, we divested each other of clothing and fe
ll into bed. I wanted him to just slide his hard cock into me, but Sahv had other ideas. He proceeded to drive me mad with desire, kissing my face and neck, lingering delightfully on my breasts, sucking each nipple in turn and kissing his way down over my belly to my pussy.
There, he lingered, sucking and licking my clit with a couple fingers buried deep in my opening. I wailed inarticulately as an exquisite orgasm racked my body with shudder after shudder. I was entirely beyond any rational thought by then, which I’m sure was his intent. I was still quaking with the aftershocks of orgasm as he moved over me and lowered himself on top of me and into me.
I can’t think of anything that felt better than the feel of his cock filling me to the hilt. He didn’t start fucking me right away. He just lay on me with my inner walls contracting around him and kissed me long and slow until my contractions waned.
“Sahvin… Sahvin,” I murmured his name between kisses. “I love you, I love you forever no matter what. You’d better come back to me!”
“I will,” he vowed.
I knew he meant it. That he would do his best.
But we didn’t say anything more as he slowly thrust in and out of me. I just basked in the feel of his magnificent body pressed against mine and wrapped myself around him. It was so much more than just a physical union---like our souls were melding as well as our bodies.
It seemed like hours that Sahvin teased me on the brink of ecstasy, breathlessly panting and so aroused, completely enthralled. Sahvin, my Sahvin. I must have come several times before he took his release, and then he stayed inside me until his cock hardened and we fucked some more. Meomee, Sahvin.
