“What is it?” James asked as he stopped and looked out the window with me.
“What is wrong with this view?” I whispered softly as I stared at an image of Earth, but instead of being on the planet we seemed to be on some sort of vessel that circled it.
“Do you think we’ve been abducted by aliens?” James wondered as he stepped closer to the window and seemed to inspect it to see if it was some sort of illusion.
“How the hell are we going to escape if we’re trapped in space?” I cried as I started to look around, expecting to be ambushed at any moment by more reptilian creatures.
“Focus, Mary. If they transported us to this ship then there has to be a way off. Come on, we have to keep moving before they realized we’ve escaped,” James said, trying to coax me to move with his strong words. I gave him a quick nod as I took his hand and started running further down the hallway. James took the lead at the next corner, peering around once before taking a left turn and running as fast as he could, pulling me along as I tried to keep up.
When the hallway ended and opened into a large room, my heart started to pound as we spotted more reptilian beings that quickly shifted once they spotted us, their movements hard to follow as they moved with such agility and speed. But as James held up the weapon towards them, they all stopped coming towards as and instead started moving back slowly.
“Now you’ll send us back right now or I’ll blast a hole in the side of this ship, killing us all!” James shouted, moving the weapon back and forth as though to sweep the monsters back. I clung onto James’ arm as we slowly moved forward to the center of the room. We watched as one of the creatures started pressing buttons at a control station at the back of the room.
“As you command,” the creature replied, his voice nasally as a forked tongue flicked from between its teeth as it spoke.
Lights started flickering through the room as my muscles tightened, and for a moment I was afraid that I couldn’t breathe any more as the room went bright white, completely blinding me. As I closed my eyes, the air went from cold to warm as I slowly opened them again to a dark room. It took a few moments before my eyes adjusted, the sensation of feeling in my body returning as I finally let go of James’ arm to see that we were now standing back in my apartment.
“Oh God, they know where I live,” I stammered as I stepped back from James as he set the weapon down on my coffee table and came towards me. My body was shaking uncontrollably as he wrapped his strong arms around me, allowing me to barrow my face in his chest as I started to cry.
“Shh, it’s all okay now. You are safe and I will never let anyone ever hurt you again,” James said into my hair as he rubbed my back in a way that helped soothe my aching body. Eventually he led me to my bedroom where I changed out of my clothes and into something more comfortable to sleep in. He helped me into bed where he tucked the covers in around me and snuggled down next to me.
The sound of rain soon filled the quiet apartment as water fell against the building, slapping the window almost painfully. But it did not frighten me as I rested next to James as he racked his hands through my short hair, the sensation rather comforting as I stared up at the ceiling.
“Your motorcycle is still out there,” I eventually said as I tried to process everything that had just happened to us.
“I can get it tomorrow after we have rested,” James said as he continued to run his fingers through my hair.
“Why do you think they choose us out of billions on this planet? Do you think they will come for us again?” I asked, fear starting to take over even with James right next to me. Now that I knew aliens were real, my mind couldn’t help but think of everything they might be able to do to me. I had seen countless sci-fi shows and movies that depicted what life in space was like and all the horrible creatures that lived in it. What if everything I had seen was based on some sort of truth? And if so, what could they possibly want with me?
“I don’t know why or how, but all I know is that we are safe now. And I’m not going to leave your side to allow anything bad to happen to you again,” James promised as he placed a soft kiss to my forehead.
“Even if it means that your motorcycle is out in the rain right now?” I said with a chuckle.
“Even if my bike gets a little wet, I’d still rather be here with you,” James said as he leaned over me and planted a kiss on my lips. At first he was gentle, but when he licked my lips, coaxing them apart so he could slip his tongue inside, my body heat started to increase as I placed a hand on his hips and pulled him closer.
The passion in his kiss increased as our tongues did a wonderful dance. He slid on top of my body as he pinned my hands above my head, kissing my mouth and then slowly trailing down my neck. His kisses sent shivers down my body as I slowly raised my hips towards his, already feeling the hardness in his member as it pressed painfully against the many layers between us.
“Don’t you move,” James said in a low voice as he stood from the bed. I simple watched, hands still resting above my head as I watched him undress, pulling his shirt off with one pull and shaking his jeans down his legs, his member springing to life as it was finally released. I couldn’t help but watch as he pumped his member a few times, obviously showing off that I couldn’t help but smile. He then came to the bedside and started pulling the covers away. He then pulled off my pajama pants off slowly, trailing kisses down my legs that made me shiver. Parting my legs with his hands, he settled between my legs as he nuzzled my sensitive mound with his nose through my underwear. They were already soaking wet as he used his fingers and pushed them to the side so he could trace his tongue over my wet opening. I moaned loudly as I pushed my head back into the pillows and raised my hips closer to his mouth.
The sound of ripping fabric filled the air as he tore my underwear right off me, giving him complete access to my wet center as he gripped onto my hips with both hands to help me stay propped up as he stuck his tongue inside me before moving to flick his tongue over my sensitive mound. I began to pant heavy as I bucked against him, loving the sound of his tongue making me even wetter than I thought possible.
“I want you inside of me,” I breathed as I tried to move my hips away from him, but he continued to suck and lick my sensitive mound till I felt my orgasm building at a rapid pace. My moans started to grow louder and the moment I thought he would send me over my breaking point, he finally let go of me, moving up my body so he could kiss me again, his mouth tasting like heaven with the mixture of my wetness on his tongue. His hands were moving over my body as he helped me sit up and then he flipped me onto my stomach, pulling my hips back against his hard member.
I giggled as I pushed my wet opening up against his tip, rubbing myself against him in anticipation. Kneeling on all fours, I pushed my hips back against him, wiggling my behind as he ran his hands up and down my back.
“Is this what you want?” he asked in a husky voice as he guided his throbbing member between my wet lips.
“Yes!” I gasped as he thrusted inside before I could finish saying the word. I gripped onto the sheets as I rocked my hips back against him as he stilled inside me, his full length inside as waves of pleasure exploded through my body. I was panting hard as he slowly pulled back out, thrusting hard again and forcing me to cry out. He leaned forward and grabbed onto both of my breasts, teasing my nipples between his fingers as he started an easy rhythm between us, rocking his hips against mine as the sound of smacking flesh filled the apartment.
“Harder,” I pleaded as I matched his pace, thrusting back towards him so I could feel him completely filling me.
“As you command,” he said in a low voice as he leaned back, grabbing onto my hips as he started pounding me, thrusting in and out as fast as he could. The speed was unbelievable as every muscle in my body tightened around his hard member, anticipating the orgasm that built at an alarming rate throughout my wet core.
“Oh yes!!” I screamed, the orgasm hitting me hard as James continued thrusti
ng inside me till he found his own release, only slowing as his own high came and went. I was panting hard when he finally pulled out of me, my legs aching with pleasure as I laid down, James coming to lay next to me as he pulled me close to his sweaty body, our legs entwining.
“Try to sleep now,” James coed into my hair as he cuddled closer to me, wrapping his arms around my body to hold me tight to his chest. Never before I did feel more safe as I finally closed my eyes and blissfully fell asleep.
Chapter Three
When I opened my eyes, I blinked a few times as darkness continued to surround me. I had figured by now that the sun would have risen, but as I continued to look around, not only was it pitch black, but my body was freezing as I tried to reach out and feel for James’ body. But as I moved my arm, it clang against something as I felt cold metal cuffs around my wrists, the sound echoing around me.
I started to panic as I pulled against the restraints, both my arms and ankles tied down as the room filled with rattling. In response, the room came to life, lights coming down from the ceiling that immediately blinded me, forcing me to squint as I looked around. I was back in a metallic room, much like the one I had been in previously that had the cage. My heart was pounding against my chest as my chest heaved as I looked around me, a glass window on one side of the room where reptilian creatures stood staring at me, one moving around what appeared to be controls. I looked down my body and noticed I was stark naked, my arms and legs stretched out on a metal table.
“This can’t be happening,” I shrieked as I began pulling against the restraints again, a long metal arm extending from the ceiling. It moved towards me as I thrashed about, trying to get away from it as a cold, circler end started pushing against my stomach. It slid down towards my hips, pausing here and there as it moved about. All I could do was stare in horror as it moved against my body, but thankfully retracted into the ceiling without doing any damage.
“She’s not pregnant,” a voice sounded into the room, a nasally sound that assaulted my ears. As the lights started to dim once more, I continued attempting to free myself even though the metal was cold and harsh against my skin, the feeling of raw skin meeting metal soon being felt wherever the metal touched my skin. But as my eyes started to grow heavy and the feeling of sleep swam over my body, I closed my eyes and relinquished myself to the need to close my eyes.
~
When I opened my eyes again, I found myself back in my bed, James next to me as he chest slowly rose and fell as he slept. For I moment I was relieved knowing it had all been a dream till I noticed the red marks around my wrists and ankles. I immediately began to weep as I pulled the blankets up around my naked body, knowing that no matter where I went they would be able to find me. If that was the truth, then I wasn’t going to make it easy for them.
I quickly moved from the bed and began dressing, putting on clothes I rarely wore to hopefully help me hide better. But when James awoke and yawned, I stopped moving and looked at him knowing I would have to tell him the truth that I was leaving.
“Mary, what is wrong?” James asked as he moved from the bed once he saw how startled I looked.
“They took me again, James. They restricted me to this metal table and probed my stomach. They said I wasn’t pregnant and sent me back. James, they want a child from me and I’m not going to give it to them. I’m sorry, but I can’t see you anymore,” I rambled as I started stuffing clothes into my Hello Kitty gym bag.
“Mary, you can’t just leave,” James pleaded as he dressed and followed me into the living room where I grabbed my emoji piggy bank and smashed it against the kitchen counter, tossing aside the broken porcelain pieces and scooping up all the change into a Ziploc bag.
“I can’t do this anymore, James. I really like being with you, but if they are hunting for pregnant woman, then I’m going to live the rest of my life as a celibate monk,” I decided as I crossed the room and grabbed a few of my favorite books and stuff them into the gym bag before turning back to James. My chest tightened as I looked at him, standing in nothing but his jeans with the space weapon pointed at me. “What are you doing?” I stammered.
“I’m not letting you go anywhere, Mary. I choose you out of every other eligible female on this plant. Your DNA is the closest to my species, and once you have successfully produced me an heir, our hybrid species will be unstoppable,” James said slowly, moving ever closer to me as I tried to push myself back towards the wall. Something seemed to shimmer over James as I blinked hard to clear my vision, but once I refocused on him once more, he had turned into one of the reptilian creatures, the sight a horrific realization.
“This is impossible,” I said, my heart pounding in my chest once I understood that James was both not who I thought he was and also a creature from space. I couldn’t believe I had slept with him…it, not once but twice. He looked like he was getting ready to pounce when the front door blew open, beams of dark red and green spilling into the room as fire erupted all around me. I crouched down and pushed myself into the corner of the room as James’ fired his weapon to no prevail.
As the room stilled once more, besides the fire that started to engulf the apartment, people shuffled into the room from the hallway. But they weren’t human. Instead they were tall beings with gray skin, toned muscles like the gods of ancient Rome and Greece. They had long blonde hair that was braided behind their backs, their bodies covered in silk robes that flowed around them as they moved. When one female turned towards me, she had white markings on her face, her bright blue eyes locking with mine as though I was looking up into the stars.
“Your safe now, child. We have defeated the Harem lord and have come to rescue you,” she said, her voice angelic as she reached towards me. I took one glance at the creature I knew as James, its body bloody and dying. As I thought about his last words and what he planned to do with me, it gave me strength to take the female’s hand as she pulled me to my feet and quickly out of the burning apartment.
“Who are you people?” I asked as we spilled into the parking lot, the morning sun peaking over the horizon as fire engines blared in the distance.
“All in good time, my child,” she replied as she talked into a small circular device she held in her hand. The next moment, blue and white surrounded us as my vision went blurry. As I tried to rub my eyes to see what was going on, one second we were standing in the parking lot and the next we were surrounded by towering trees, a floral scent assaulting my noise. I couldn’t contain a sneeze as I took a step back from the woman, quickly looking around as I realized we had been transported somewhere else.
My eyes looked up at the tall red oak trees tower around me as light came in from the dome above, the entire area being surrounded by translucent glass. As I looked down at my feet as I took another step, I realized I was actually walking in ankle high grass that felt soft underneath my feat. As I looked forward, a large space of wildflowers grew next to cultivated plots where varies plants grew. It was like being in a giant greenhouse but with enough space to feel like you were standing outside. The air felt warm and refreshing, and never had I ever seen anything so beautiful before.
“How do you feel?” the female asked again, drawing my attention back to her. The other members of her group had already walked away and I could spot them on the other side of the green space, stepping into a hallway.
“I think I’m okay,” I said as I looked back at the female. “I’m just having a really hard time processing everything.”
“That is understandable,” she replied as she motioned towards a simple wooden bench nearby. “Let’s sit and enjoy the morning.” I obeyed as I sat down next to the towering female, captivated by both the beauty in the field in front of us, and the way she appeared.
“Who are you?” I finally managed to ask as I looked up at her.
“We are the Tlalu. A species that lives to preserve life where ever we will wonder. We have no home planet, but instead spend our lives wherever we are most needed,” she s
aid, her voice like hearing a pleasant song.
“Like guardian angels,” I replied as I looked out at the field again. I started to notice other life as birds swooped through the air, colors I had never seen on a bird before.
“I guess you could say that,” she said as she pulled her hand up to her ear so she could listen to the small device in her hand.
“That was Herald, the captain of this vessel. He will want to know what has happened with the Harem lord,” the female explained as she stood. “Come, I will show you to your room so you can regain your strength. Then I must go to deliver my report.”
As we left the green field and went down a different hallway, I looked over my shoulder one last time to take in the splendor of it all. Even if I had been taken once again by another alien species, at least this place seemed peaceful and they were allowing me to roam freely.
I followed the female down the hallway that was surprisingly made of warm stained wood like an antique house. The lights came from wall scones, a warm glow that filled the area as we walked. As we passed by several wooden, it made me feel like we were walking through a mansion instead of being on a spaceship.
“Here we are,” she said once we had reached the end of the hallway and to a set of double doors. She turned the brass knob and pushed open, allowing me to enter first. My eyes went wide as I took in the large room, a four poster bed nestled on one side and an arrangement of furniture in the center to relax on. It was like a palace room with ornate wall paper covering the walls, a large crystal chandelier hanging from the ceiling and large glass windows that were covered with blue velvet drapes.
“It’s been a long time since we had a human woman staying with us, so I do apologizes for the outdated furnishings and clothes. But it will have to do for the time being, until you can give us better insight into what woman of Earth like to wear these days,” the female explained as she went over to the long wooden dresser and pulled out the top drawer, gathering a long crème colored dress in her arms and setting it out on the bed. It reminded me something Jane Austen would wear, and though I had never worn anything similarly, I was thrilled to give it a try.
