CHAPTER
TWO
“Get up, Price.”
Kai kicked his trainee in the ribs, but he didn’t move.
“Get up .”
With a groan, Price rolled over onto his back and stared up at him.
“I . . . can’t do this.”
“Sure you can. Get off the floor and fight.” When Price didn’t move, he raised an eyebrow. “What’s wrong, soldier boy? Too much for you?”
He watched Price’s jaw harden in a way he’d come to recognize over the past few weeks. Palk would be here to assess the trainees soon, and Kai was determined that Price would be ready. There were only eight trainees left to even consider moving on to phase two.
“You . . . knocked the wind out of me.”
There was a rasp to Price’s voice that made Kai think of his own experiences with the Ungrich . He’d screamed so long and so hard it had taken weeks for his voice to return. The memory strengthened his resolve.
“If I have to come down to your level and haul you to your feet, you’ll regret it.”
Price’s chest heaved, and he pushed one hand palm down in the sand of the arena and tried to get up. It took him a while, but Kai was willing to wait. The moment Aled righted himself, Kai was on him and sent him back down.
“Get up!”
Price bared his teeth and went for Kai from the ground, wrapping one arm around his hips and bringing him crashing to the floor. In a second, he found himself underneath his trainee and unable to avoid the fist colliding with his face.
“You fucking bastard , you . . .”
Even as Price drew back his fist again, Kai reacted, snapping upward and landing a slashing cut with the side of his hand against Price’s throat. The blow had him doubling up and rolling to the side, coughing and choking.
Kai attached the long leash to Price’s collar and then tied it around his wrists, securing them behind Price’s back, tightening the knots until his trainee’s body arched in protest. He waited until Price went still again and then forced him into a kneeling position.
“Don’t lose your temper with me because you are incapable of defending yourself.”
“Fuck off and die, sir.”
“If you had any sense, you’d be asking me to teach you how to survive rather than wailing and weeping.”
“I—” Price went still. “Tell me.”
“After that little display of temper? I don’t think so.” He got off his knees, aware that he was going to be in pain later but willing to ignore it if it meant he got through to Price. “Do you think if you fight fair, you are somehow better than everyone else?”
“No, sir.”
Price’s face was closed in, his dark auburn hair damp with sweat and stuck to his skin. Around them swirled the usual noise of the arena. Kai ignored everything but the man in front of him.
“Because you aren’t better, Price. Where you’re going, you’ll need every fucking trick in the book, and you’ll need to learn to endure.”
Price said nothing, but there was an obstinate twist to his mouth that made Kai want to punch him. Wherever Earth was, it certainly produced stubborn citizens.
“Come on.”
“But the training session hasn’t finished, sir.”
“And I’m the fucking boss, so shut up and come with me.” He scowled at his trainee. It was time to teach the man a lesson. Apart from Graif, Price was the best of the current crop of trainees, and he knew it. Thing was, Kai knew better.
Nodding at Malke to take over, he led Price down to what the trainees called the torture chamber and went inside. The prof was bent over, checking the restraints on one of the other trainees, who was strapped to the correction table, his mouth and ass filled with pulsing dildos.
Price went still, and Kai had to yank hard on his leash to get him to move on.
“Prof. First things first, a gag.”
“Ball gag, cock gag, silk gag? Which do you prefer?”
Kai looked at Price, who swallowed convulsively. “Cock, I think. Kneel down.”
Rebellion flashed in Price’s eyes, and Kai was quietly amused.
Whatever happened, his recruit did have balls.
He almost respected that. But Price still needed to learn to endure and pay attention.
He expected that by the end of their current session Price would be rethinking his superior attitude—or be begging to go home.
The prof came out with three different cock gags in his hand and showed them to Kai, who picked the one with a nice, flexible plastic dick and watched as the prof fitted it on Price.
“That’s better.” Kai smiled at his trainee. “I can’t fuck his mouth, but at least he’s quiet.”
“Anything else you need, Kai?”
“I think I have the rest in my quarters.”
Disappointment flashed over the prof’s even features. “You’re not leaving him here for me to play with?”
Kai patted the man’s shoulder. “Not this time, but I’m sure you’ll be seeing him again soon.”
He led the way down the hall and punched in the code that took them through to his private quarters. Not that his room was anything special, but at least it had four walls and a door he could lock, unlike the open cage his trainee currently lived in.
He pointed at the bed. “Get on your knees and face the headboard.”
Price did what he was told. Kai leaned over and slid Price’s wrists inside the manacles welded to the top of the bed frame and clicked the locks shut.
Price’s arms were now extended over his head, giving a nice arch to his spine.
Kai enjoyed the sight for a moment before reaching under his bed and bringing up the chains and manacles to fit around Price’s ankles.
He climbed onto the narrow bed behind Price to make sure his ankles were spread as wide as possible and held tightly within the manacles.
Price had no ability to move now or stop Kai doing anything he wanted to him.
Because of the cock gag, he couldn’t even cry out.
After weeks in the training center, his skin was bruised and scarred.
Kai idly touched his ass and felt the instinctive flinch away Price couldn’t quite conceal.
Damn, this was going to be fun.
Climbing off the bed, he retrieved his box of toys and opened the lid.
Where to start? He suspected Price thought he was going to use force and was set to endure bravely, but the Ungrich weren’t like that.
They used other ways to make you beg and scream and .
. . He took a deep breath and found a bottle of oil and warmed some in his hands.
Price shuddered as Kai knelt behind him and started to massage the oil into his chest and then over his shoulders and up his arms. Price’s heartbeat thudded faster as Kai toyed with his nipples, drawing them through finger and thumb until Price’s ass was flexing.
He got more oil and moved lower, massaging it into the tightly packed muscles on Price’s stomach, over his hips, and down his thighs to his knees.
He was aware of Price’s growing erection, but he didn’t touch his cock or balls yet.
Using the oil was soothing him too as he concentrated on Price’s back and the tight curves of his ass.
Leaning close, he bit the other male’s ear. “You like this, Price? Me making you slick with oil so you’ll slide more easily against my skin?”
There was a muffled sound from within Price’s cock-stuffed mouth, which made Kai smile. “I’m going to have your ass tonight. I’m going to make you hard and wet and then I’m going to make you scream for it.”
Price attempted to buck against him, but Kai remained where he was, his whole body leaning into Price’s from knee to shoulder.
He was hard himself, and made sure his trainee was aware of it by rubbing his shaft against the man’s lower spine.
He suspected he was dealing with a relatively inexperienced man, and that was fitting, seeing as it was his last trainee.
In fact, he’d delayed the experience for far longer than usual for purely selfish reasons.
He’d teach Price how best to accept the Ungrich inside him, and then all he could do was hope the male would survive.
Getting more oil, he trickled some between Price’s ass cheeks and followed the stream down, making sure to rim the pucker of his asshole, gently opening it. Price’s breathing hitched as Kai eased his way in, using the oil to lubricate his passage.
“Nice ass,” he murmured. “So tight. So ready for a nice big cock.”
He placed his other hand on the small of Price’s back, forcing him to lift his ass, presenting it.
With a sigh, he licked his way from his inserted finger along the smooth line of Price’s taint to the hanging delight of his balls.
Price tried to move and was brought up short by his chains.
Kai drew one of his balls into his mouth and gently sucked it before releasing it and doing the same to the other.
He also licked a line from the root of Price’s now straining cock to the tip, enjoying the salty taste of pre-come.
As he explored, he kept his finger inside Price’s ass, pushing deeper as the other male reacted to the tender assault on his balls and cock.
His finger was up to the second knuckle now.
Changing tactics, he cupped Price’s balls in his hand and used his thumb to rub up and down the first inch of Price’s shaft.
He moved his mouth to Price’s ass and bit down on the muscled cheek, pressing his finger all the way in as Price reacted to the sudden pain.
He was panting behind the gag, his skin bathed in sweat as well as oil, and he was well and truly impaled on Kai’s middle finger.
Still cradling Price’s balls, he moved that finger in and out, aware of how tight Price still was and wishing he could just strip off his own pants and shove his dick deep.
But that was how he liked to be fucked. Fast, hard, and rough.
That wouldn’t work for someone who needed to understand how to survive the Ungrich.
He leaned in close again. “You like that? My finger in your ass, working you? Can you feel it in your cock? Does it make you want to come?”
