Chapter 6
GISELLE AWOKE WITH A start, something she’d grown accustomed to, trying to flush the fog from Vrix’s sedation. Her eyes darted around the room, her breath only calming when she realized she was alone.
Calming, but only slightly.
She curled into a ball, pulling the sheets up to her chin as she lay on the bed. Her body was healed, but her mind was broken, torn between horror and relief, responsibility and surrender.
Could she forgive herself if she gave up?
Despite the pain, the fear, it was a reprieve to give in to Vrix and Thase, her racing mind numbing as they used her, took pleasure from her and gave it back to her in return.
It would be so easy to let it all happen, so easy to yield to desire, yield to respite.
She had never been used like that, not by Anthony or any of her past lovers. Complete and utter domination, it somehow calmed her, taking her out of her body and putting her in a place of bliss.
But she couldn’t give in. How could she? They wanted to rebuild her womb, force their disgusting broods into her.
She couldn’t give in.
If she did what they wanted, perhaps they’d listen to her. And if it helped calm her mind in the interim, well, she couldn’t deny that she wanted it, needed it.
There was a whoosh of air, and Giselle’s eyes shot to the door.
Just Vrix, or so she thought, with a smile on his face and another tray in his hands.
How long had it been since she last ate or drank? Her mouth was parched again, thick from the honeyed cum she’d swallowed the last time she was with the two of them. It was impossible to tell how long she’d been on the ship with the sporadic sedation-induced naps.
Vrix ambled over and set the tray on the bed as he had done before, eyeing her carefully.
“How do you feel, sweet one?”
For a brute, he could be surprisingly polite, and she took a big gulp of water before answering.
“I’m fine.”
He nodded, letting her eat the neogel in silence, washing down the tasteless gelatin with swigs of water. When she was finished, he pushed the tray aside, pulling her into his tight grasp.
“Are you going to take me back to the cockpit?” she asked, the thought both titillating and frightening at the same time.
Vrix chuckled as he released her, lying comfortably on the bed and pulling her into a cuddle.
“No, not right now. Thase is preparing for arrival on Umuna, a small planetoid. We must refuel before we continue on to Occaro X7. We’ve made more trips to Earth than we originally expected.”
He brushed her hair with clawed fingers, a sensation that had become a soothing balm as much as she wished it wasn’t.
He would be easier to convince, certainly.
She couldn’t give up.
Giselle tried to think of something to say, curling up in the crook of his neck, which made him hum with apparent pleasure.
“Oh, Giselle, we’re so happy to have you here.
You’ve been our best pet yet, so responsive, so submissive.
The others… they wanted to deny how they felt, wanted to deny the pleasure we gave them.
They refused to behave, so we had to punish them.
Sometimes, we got carried away. I…” Vrix trailed off, stopping the stroking of her hair.
“I’m not happy with what happened to them, but there is nothing to be done at this point.
We didn’t know how fragile humans were, but now we do.
“We have been isolated for so long, just me and Thase. Of course, the other humans brought pleasure, but it was fleeting. But you have survived. You have been so good and I will not let you go.”
I will not let you go.
Words that somehow disturbed her and pleased her at the same time.
They possessed her, owned her, a thought that sent an erotic shiver through her body. So different from the way Anthony had discarded her like she was nothing more than trash. What would giving in mean? Being their pet permanently? Letting them drown her in pleasure?
A jolt shook the ship, shocking Giselle from her thoughts as she gripped onto Vrix.
He chuckled, his strong arms supporting her as the shuttle buffeted for a few seconds before stilling once more.
“What was that?” she asked, brows furrowed.
“We have arrived.”
Umuna was a jungle world, the small bare patch where they’d landed surrounded on all sides by a thick canopy of emerald green.
Vrix had escorted her through the halls of the Starlet until they had arrived at an airlock with a tiny window, Thase waiting with a scowl.
“We will visit the planet while they refuel the ship,” he said, eyes wandering over her bare body.
The leer sent wicked delight racing through her, electrifying her nerves. She shouldn’t enjoy the way he ogled her, as if he wanted to devour her, hurt her, yet it made her heart race, her muscles tighten with arousal.
When the door hissed open, she glanced wildly between them.
“Shouldn’t I put my clothes on?”
Probably a silly question for aliens who didn’t wear anything, but the thought of being paraded around in the nude made her sick to her stomach.
“You will not need them,” Vrix said with a smile, taking her hand and leading her to the open door.
Humidity covered them like a blanket as they stepped off the ship, exiting down a shining metal staircase which was somehow exactly what she’d expected from a UFO.
A robot greeted them, a humanoid assemblage that talked like it was an actual person and not a hunk of metal.
Giselle felt self-conscious, a flush burning her cheeks as she crossed her arms over her chest. The sun warmed her bare skin, the heat oppressive, but it was still strange to be naked.
At least there were no others ambling about, the large landing field empty save for the Starlet and the robot.
“I WILL BEGIN THE REFUELING PROCESS RIGHT AWAY. PLEASE ENJOY OUR RECREATION AREA WHILE YOU WAIT.”
Vrix and Thase glanced at each other with unsubtle smirks, and a shiver danced up her spine despite the humid air.
“Come along, pet,” Thase growled as he took her hand, pulling her into the jungle beyond.
The trees were enormous, long trunks stretching into the sky as a dense canopy covered them like a roof, blotting out the sun. Chittering calls came from all around, buzzes and hoots and croaks, winged insects that looked like brightly colored butterflies flitting about.
Were there predators in here like there were in the jungles on Earth? Were they in danger? Surely not with the casual way Thase and Vrix guided her through the forest.
Not when Thase and Vrix were predators themselves, despite the fact that they photosynthesized as opposed to eating meat.
After a short walk, they came upon a luminescent pool, almost hidden by an underbrush of yellow fern-like plants. The still water shimmered, a glow fading and expanding as if it were the pulse of the jungle’s heartbeat.
A beam of light broke through the canopy and Vrix stopped in it, like a cat sunning itself by a window. He stretched his arms out, sighing deeply as his eyes fluttered shut.
“Oh, it feels so exquisite.”
Thase smiled, one that seemed almost genuine.
So, they really did gain energy from the sun as humans consumed food for sustenance. It warmed Giselle’s heart, the simple way Vrix felt the pleasure of the light.
Her heart which shouldn’t be warming regarding anything these two did. Even if being with them calmed her in some strange way, she needed to stay focused.
“Would you like to swim?” Thase whispered in her ear, jolting her to attention.
She glanced at him, brows furrowed.
“Is it… safe?”
The glowing pool was beautiful, of course, but who knows what lurked under the sheen of glitter?
“It is just water,” he said, giving her a wicked smile. “The luminosity is from phosphorescent life forms that coat the pool’s surface. They will not hurt you.”
Before she could answer, he pulled her towards the water’s edge, the mossy ground soft under her bare feet. Thase stepped into the pool, turning around and pulling her into his arms with one swift movement.
Giselle instinctively wrapped her legs around his waist, her arms circled around his neck, the firm grip at her ass reminding her of the cockpit. Her body responded as if on cue, embers flaring between her thighs as her feet dipped into the cool water.
But Thase made no move to do anything, just observed her with intense scrutiny as he walked them farther into the pool.
There was a prick of discomfort, clawed hands clutching too hard into her tender flesh, and she winced. The pain wasn’t as… unwelcome as she’d expected, but it still made her pulse quicken with fear.
Thase narrowed his eyes, then softened his grip. Tentacles snaked out from his elbows, coiling down his arms until they brushed across her ass. The pinches of pain subsided immediately, and her chest felt light, the smile curling his mouth telling her all she needed to know.
Maybe he didn’t just want to hurt her, after all?
Vrix splashed behind them, though she couldn’t tear her eyes away from Thase. It was like he was staring into her soul, his eyes glimmering, mirroring the glitter of the pool.
A touch at her back startled her, Vrix sliding his hands up her stomach and breasts as he hugged her from behind.
“Can you take us like this?” he whispered in her ear.
Oh, the embers were flaring now, heating her core in a way that disturbed and surprised her.
“She can take us,” Thase assured, his mouth curling into a smirk. “Let us break our little pet wide open.”
A whimper escaped Giselle’s lips, one she had been trying to contain as arousal pulsed through her. His words should not turn her on, not in a way that made her head dizzy, her body as light as a feather floating on a breeze.
Rubbery touches whispered over her spread legs and she looked down to see Vrix’s purple tentacles wrapping around her thighs, some snaking down over her ass. And there was the slit at Thase’s crotch, oozing as it opened, his cock beginning to extrude.
