“What is it?” Dalik asked.
“It is just…breathtaking…” I said.
“You cannot breath?” he said in a panic.
“No, it is just an expression,” I said looking at him and seeing the panic on his face. I was suddenly flooded with warmth at his concern over me. However, he still looked at me confused.
“I do not understand this…” he said.
“It means, that you see something so beautiful that it feels like you cannot breath, but you still can breath,” I said as he locked eyes with me. He actually seemed touched by my words as he moved toward me, his blue body towering over me.
“Then it can be said that Konthos pleases you,” Dalik asked.
“Yes, very much,” I said as I looked out at the large city when something caught the corner of my eye. I moved to the edge of the living quarters and looked out toward the east. “What is that?” I looked down at massive blue blocks, but as I looked closer I realized what it was.
“That is the shield of Kalazaron,” he said as he moved next to me. The massive blue blocks that I saw were actually battalions of Kalazaron warriors marching. It was an impressive sight but also very frightening. I realized that on Earth, they had greatly misinterpreted the great size of this great warrior nation. No wonder they kept surprising us. We knew that they were great warriors but we thought they were small tribes spread out on Kaethon. This now proved that they were so much more organized than that and a great warrior army. I shivered.
“You must be cold. I have remembered that humans are not adapted to this cold planet as we are. Earth is hot,” Dalik said as he put his hand on my shoulder. Suddenly I was no longer thinking about the warrior army and the amazing view. I was only thinking about his cool hand on my warm skin. He smiled and as he did so his gaze shifted to his hand. As he lowered his head a piece of his thick blue black hair fell over his eyes. I restrained myself to not reach up and push it back into place. His light brown eyes seemed to change color and lighten to a gold as he looked at me. Then he quickly pulled his hand from me and said, “Come human. Let me show you the living quarters and your assignments.”
“Jade,” I said. “Please call me Jade.”
“Yes, of course. Apology,” he said as he moved toward the center of the room.
“This is the basic,” he said.
I looked around the vast room and asked, “The basic?”
“Yes, the basics of the living space. The large table for meals and working is here. There is the seatings for guests and leisure,” he said as he pointed out what I would call a dining area and a living room but I said nothing, only smiled.
“In the back here is meal preparation and water,” he said filling a cup of water and handing it to me. I was thirsty and hungry. Sensing this he pressed a button. A prepared meal on a dish appeared in the box. Then he moved to the back of the room to an empty wall and said, “This is my sleeping quarters behind this wall.”
I was glad that he did not say ‘our’ sleeping quarters. Then he moved to the far side of the vast room near the east windows and pushed a button. The wall slid open and I followed him into a room where the lights automatically came on.
“This is the slave washing room,” he said as I looked around the equivalent of the bathroom. There was a very large glass cube without a top lid that I could only assume was a bathtub of sorts. Then we walked back into the basic room.
“Have any questions…Jade,” he said. I was glad he was using my name and I was deeming myself lucky that this warrior was kind in his own unusual way. If I had been with Commander Yun I would no doubt be treated savagely.
“I only have one question,” I said.
“Yes, what is that?”
“Where am I to sleep?”
Chapter 4
DALIK MOSCURN
As she followed me inside my living quarters I had to restrain myself from taking her in my arms and carrying her to my sleep bed. Since I had first seen her huddle in the cage only a few moments before, an infatuation was starting to grow for her. It was happening fast in the pit of my stomach. I could not. I had promised this human slave that she would not be treated barbarically and with unwanted attention, even though it was within my power to do so. I owned her. She was my property now. She had been tagged with my identification and that fact turned me on. Seeing that brand come up on her arm with my name, Dalik Moscurn was complete foreplay for me.
I was starting to feel my staff harden but was also filled with guilt. I had prided myself on being different than the barbaric brute attitude that defined our race of Kalazaron warriors. Yet, here I was, eyeing my slave and thinking about how I wanted to do things to her, very filthy things.
As she moved forward in front of me I took this time to let my eyes roam over the fitted suit that she wore. It hugged her ample backside and slim waist. It made her breasts perky and bouncy and I longed to cup them in my cold strong hands. She was small and delicate and I wanted to press my body on top of hers, but I was scared that she was too fragile for that. She was definitely too small for the Kalazaron sizes. Her eyes widened as she moved further in. I wondered what a human would think of it. I had not spent one night in this new place for the Consulate. The habitant coordinant’s team had moved and unpacked my items for me except for a few personal trunks that were in my sleeping quarters, only to be touched by me.
Therefore it was just as new to me as it was for her. However, I found myself wanting her to approve of it, which was not normal. I should not be under any needs to make a slave feel in comfort. Yet here I was. I stared at her as she walked forward to the glass. Did she think she could walk right off the edge? I could not tell from her reactions. Was this typical to her? Was it dull? I panicked and moved toward her. Perhaps she did think it was open to the sky and she was in a state of arrest!
Then she looked at me and her face seemed pleasant enough as though she was still breathing, so I relaxed a little. As I conversed with her and she told me her thoughts on my planet, it filled my heart with pride that she thought it was beautiful. It moved me enough to touch her. In that moment I realized that I had never touched a human before, especially not a female human. It was an exquisite feeling to have her warm soft skin underneath my hand. I wanted to rub it down her arm, but instead I smiled at her. Her blue eyes were the color of the Kaethon sky and seas and I was quickly lost in them. I had to remember, she was my slave. I quickly pulled my hand from her because if I didn’t I would get heated. I had not planned on spending this much time with the new slave. I was to get on with the Consulate duties and yet my mind was now occupied with this female human. I went into work mode and showed her around the necessities she would need to be acquainted with. Then I before I was to leave I asked, “Have any questions…Jade,” remembering to use her name and not call her human.
“I only have one question,” she said.
“Yes, what is that?”
“Where am I to sleep?”
I was silent. I contemplated having her sleep in my rest bed with me even though it was not what I originally had planned for a slave. Though that is what many did, but it was not a requirement. It was always up to the master to decide. Her eyes began to grow wider and her breathing grew heavy.
“Am I to sleep with you? I will not be a sex slave!” she shouted in anger and defiance as she set her chin in the air. It was a very interesting attitude and I was attracted to it. Maybe I should have her sleep in my bed? I thought to myself, but then looking at her beauty I knew that I could never take her. I did want her but I would want her to give herself to me. I did not want to take it.
I moved to the wall near the east side of the living quarters near her washing area and pressed a panel on the wall. The wall slid open revealing a rest bed. She sighed and looked relieved but then changed again as she said, “That’s it? It is just a bed, not a room. What about privacy?” she asked.
“Privacy?” I asked. “If you want your own room you can share mine…” I said teasi
ng her.
“No! This is fine,” she said. I turned away from her and smiled.
“Now all areas have a projection. Press this blue square in the meal preparation area and a projection will show you how to prepare meals. I will be back at dark.”
“You’re leaving?” she asked.
“Yes, I must. I have many assignments to do today. You will be safe here. You cannot leave. Only I can open this door. Rest. You must be tired. Wash in the water tank,” I said as I pressed my hand on the wall and opened the entrance to my sleeping quarters and left her alone in the basic.
I took a few minutes to gather my thoughts. This was not going to be good. I was already feeling infatuated with this human female. How long would I be able to resist? I had heard that the human mind was a receptive one, but I had never tried it myself. Could I keep myself from being devious and not trying what I wanted to later that night? I did not know. What I did know was that I needed to get out of this living quarter before I wasted more time on playing with this new toy.
Some time later I was on my way to the meeting rooms of Master Bresh to formally thank him for the gift and to go about the day’s business. However, I was not expecting what I saw when I walked in. As I approached the door leading to the vast meeting room I heard voices, quiet voices. When I stepped in the doorway I saw Commander Yun, “I want to challenge it,” he said to Master Bresh. The Master turned toward the doorway and saw me. They both stopped talking.
“Master Bresh…Commander,” I said as I walked into the room.
“We will speak on this matter later Commander. I must speak with the Consulate now,” Master Bresh said as he dismissed the Commander. The Commander surprised me as he sneered out a low growl toward Master Bresh. The moment was tense.
“Am I interrupting something?” I asked. The tension dropped a little and Master Bresh gave the Commander a mean look, “No. The Commander was just leaving.” His tone was so filled with anger that the guards at the door turned inside the room and took on a defensive stance. The Commander looked at them and then at me and grinned before walking out. The room was silent.
“Something I should know?” I asked the Master as I moved to the massive table in the middle of the room and leaned my palms on it. This could be serious. The way he addressed the Master could be seen as an act of defiance.
“No. It is nothing,” he said. “Please sit.”
I knew that he was lying but I should gather more facts before I questioned. I took the seat and changed the tone with, “I came by for two reasons. The first is to thank you for my gift.”
“Oh yes, the human female. She must be something to drive the Commander here to complain about it. Perhaps I should have taken a look at her first to see if I wanted her for myself,” he said with a grin.
As soon as the words escaped his mouth I was boiling with anger. The thought of Jade belonging in the possession of anyone but me was too unbearable to think about. I would kill anyone first before I let that happen. I needed to tread lightly because Master Bresh could do anything he wanted, including take a gift that he had given the Consulate and gift it to himself. I needed to distract him from thinking anymore about doing that. I controlled my anger and said, “Is that what the Commander wants to challenge, ownership of the female human slave?”
He was silent for a long time and then said, “Yes.”
I let out a grunt. I could not control my anger anymore. I stood up from my seat to my full height and stuck out my chest. Us Kalazaron could not control ourselves when it came to defending what was ours; this is why we were a warrior race. It was in our blood, our blue blood.
“Calm yourself Consulate. It is not your human I speak of,” the Master said as my nerves were instantly calmed to hear the news.
“Then who?” I asked as I still stood there.
“It is another female from the same human spaceship that your human was on. The Commander’s men found her hiding in the infirmary of the ship, it is where the humans are attended to and fixed upon injury. I had her sent to Belvenreed. I thought she might be useful there with our fixers. Perhaps the humans know of things we do not.”
“That is the human the Commander wants?” I asked not quite believing him just yet.
“Yes, since you have taken the female he wanted for himself, he wants this other one. I denied his request of course. Commander Yun needs to learn that his raids on ships is not for his own gain but for the whole of the Kalazaron to be decided by its leaders.”
“And he challenged this?” I asked.
“What was the second reason you are here Consulate? You mentioned you were here to thank me for the gift and…”
“Yes, for a plan of orders. If it pleases you I would like to begin my Consulate assignments by reviewing all of the systems of Konthos first. Then when I have a full knowledge I can proceed with progressive movements.”
“That is wise. It is a wise man that assesses all before jumping in. There are very few Kalazaron warriors like that. We are quick to temper. Your father was calm and wise and you are much like him. You will do well as my second in command Dalik Moscurn.”
“Many thanks to you Master. I will began now,” I said as I bowed to him and walked out of the room. But as soon as I was in the hall I walked incredibly fast. There was something I had to do first. I picked up my small projection communicator, “Show me home.”
As I stood there alone in the hall I watched the concealed cameras in my living quarters, something I purposely failed to mention to Jade. As each room was scanned and empty I panicked. Was I too late? Had the Commander took the opportunity of knowing I was not in my home to take Jade from me? Finally, the cameras found her. I gasped at the sight.
Sitting naked in the glass water tank washing herself, was the human female called Jade that was already causing so much trouble. I leaned back against the wall as I watched her. I was mesmerized. Her skin was pale and wet. Her blonde hair was wet and stuck against her naked back. I stared at her voluptuous breasts and taught nipples. Her slender form was only even more attractive by the content smile on her face. The poor woman had been through so much and this moment was probably very comforting. I debated using my power on her. I wanted to go back to my living quarters and take her. It was my right to do so, but I knew that I would not. I wanted her to want me. Still I struggled with the barbarian warrior ways buried deep inside of me and being a more progressive leader. It was a struggle that was harder to deal with now that I had this sexual human female so close to me. How could I ever keep my hands off of her? I was used to taking what I wanted. But I knew…there was a way without ever putting my hands on her at all. I would never tell her that.
I closed the projection, giving her privacy, but still not convinced that she was safe from the Commander. I made my way to my workspace and made my first order as Consulate.
“I want a guard stationed outside my living quarters in the hall until I arrive this night. Do it immediately,” I ordered.
“Yes Consulate.”
Now that it was done I felt better knowing that should the Commander show up at my living quarters I would know about it. Now, I absolutely must get started on what was left of the day. Almost the entire hours of my first workday had been devoted to Jade. I sighed knowing this was going to be difficult, especially after I had seen her in the water tank. I wondered what she must have been thinking. Did she know about her crewmate being taken to Belvenreed? Would I tell her? It wasn’t my obligation to tell her and I should have not one care about her personal relations of this sort. She was a slave and a female. Females had very few rights and movements on Kaethon, and human females slaves even less.
As I thought more and more about her I was about to explode. I would feel her warm flesh under my hand again and it turned me on. There was only one thing I could do. I needed a release, and I needed it now. I walked fast with a firm destination in mind that was close by. I had to do this or I would never get through the rest of the day.
I pressed the holographic wall and a sound rang out. The door slid open.
“Consulate Moscurn, it is good to have you in my presence again,” Grata Peren said. This was the female Kalazaron I often visited when I was in need. We had an understanding between us. It was an arrangement that benefited both of us. Grata Peren was without a male Kalazaron, for now. I knew it would not be long before she coupled because she was very attractive. For now I would make the most of her being without a mate to satisfy my needs, and on this day my needs were strong. I let out a groan as I looked at her tall lean blue figure. Her silver blue hair fell seductive over one eye as she moved her head. She was standing in her doorway in a white sheer shift dress. I could see her dark blue nipples through the pale cloth. I smiled as my eyes grazed over them. She let out a soft laugh. I stepped in a bit and she moved back. Her head tilted back as I still towered over and she bit her lower lip. I put my hand on the small of her back and drew her to me. I pressed my lips against hers and pushed her into her living quarters as the door slid closed behind us. My hands went immediately to her rigid nipples under the cloth. My thumbs moved over the erect buds and she moaned. I could not hold back my lust any longer. As my eyes closed I thought of Jade inside the water tank. It drove me to the edge. I put my hands on Grata’s bottom and picked her up. She wrapped her long legs around my waist and I carried her to her rest bed. I lay her down on the bed and she untied her dress. It fell off onto the bed and she now lay naked before me. I stood up and unbuckled the belt portion of my lower coverings and it fell to the floor. I was rock hard as my cock stood out ready for her. I moved between her thighs and kissed her mouth, closing my eyes. I imagined Grata was Jade, when I entered her. I imagined Grata was Jade as our bodies pounded together until I discharged. Only then did I find some release, but it was not enough. Would it ever be enough?
