Captive Mate: A Dark Sci-Fi Romance, page 2
I’d wanted to kill him. Now I craved fucking him. The irony wasn’t lost on me. However, this was what all good dreams were made of.
He continued fucking me, yanking me up and down like a ragdoll. I wasn’t certain the alien knew how to be gentle, but at this point I didn’t care. The hint of pain from the beast first entering me was gone, now replaced by what could only be described as pure, uncensored ecstasy. I could get hooked on this.
There was such a strange attraction to the being, as if our two chemistries were combined, the electricity soaring. My skin felt so alive, but on fire and there was a strange spark in his eyes. I was certain he was going to erupt in flames at any second. As he yanked me up and down, I lolled my head. This wasn’t about passion or any level of tenderness. This was about raw fucking, his taking of me.
And his ownership.
The thought popped into my mind, and I opened my eyes wide. What if a small part of this was real?
All rational thought stopped the moment the most powerful orgasm of my life swept through me like a tidal wave, beating the hell out of the vibrators I’d used. I was lost in a sea of dancing colors.
“Oh, I’m going to…” The bouncing was more ferocious, and I fisted my hand around his long strands of hair to keep myself tethered to him. As the climax reached its peak, my scream could likely be heard from space. “Keep fucking me. That’s it.”
Then I sensed his body tensing, his breathing as irregular as mine. There was something so intoxicating about his deep, rumbling growls, the savage sound just like an animal would make moments before mating. I realized my eyes were closed, savoring the moment before finding myself in a deep REM sleep.
“Look at me, little human,” he commanded, and I sensed his stern order was not to be denied.
I opened my eyes slowly, blinking several times to try to focus. Then I felt his cock swelling deep inside of me, stretching me to my limits. The roar of passion between us was unbelievable, as if we were always meant to be together.
Destined.
“I will return for you when the time is right. But as of now, you belong to me.”
Then all seemed to fade to black.
“What the fuck?”
Startled, I heard the lilting voice of my dorm mate as she bounded into the room, flicking on the harsh overhead light. “What?” I jerked up, taking gasping breaths, blinking to try to remove the fog from my eyes.
“You were screaming. Well, not at first. You were telling someone to fuck you.” Tory’s eyes suddenly opened wide. Then she pressed her hand across her mouth.
That’s when I glanced down. Oh, fuck me. I was completely naked. What the hell had I done in my sleep?
“I will return for you when the time is right. But as of now, you belong to me.”
The alien’s words lingered in the back of my mind, and I licked my dry lips, yanking at the sheet. Then I stumbled off the bed, realizing the insides of my thighs were sticky.
“What happened?” she asked. “That dream again?”
“Uh-huh.”
“Whew. Girl. I need one of those. A fantasy of some kind.” Tory started jabbering on about something, but I was lost in concentration, unable to get the image of the creature’s face or his delicious body out of my mind.
Then I turned around and stared through the open blinds toward the sky. Even on this blasphemous Earth Station, there were twinkling stars, a reminder that humans weren’t the only creatures out there. And suddenly, I was petrified. When I slipped my hand between my legs, I took a deep breath. Then I pulled my fingers into the light.
The substance was… fluid mixed with blood. My blood.
As if I’d just lost my virginity.
Oh, my lord. What was happening?
CHAPTER 2
Earth Station Eighty-Eight
Educational facility
Year twenty-eight ninety
Sunny
This was a very bad idea. Terrible.
The dream had filtered into my mind all day, so much so I was thankful I’d managed to shove it out of my mind for almost nine months. I’d been busy with school and interning at a lovely veterinary hospital, so exhausted at night I almost never dreamed.
Why go now?
I was finally using Tory’s birthday gift, which I’d ignored until now. Now I knew why. The horrific yet sensual dream that had haunted me for weeks afterwards. The fact my OB-GYN had confirmed I’d lost my virginity when that wasn’t possible had kept me on edge. I had to have a screw loose to allow a dark fantasy of any kind to occur.
I leaned forward, making faces at the girl in the reflection surface, trying to talk myself out of it. A fantasy experience of a lifetime. Who did that? Someone who had a little bit of money and a desire to enter a realm in which they’d never feel comfortable participating in real life.
If I had to admit it, I’d be forced to say I had an ego. I always had. I’d excelled in everything I did from sports to higher education. I came from amazing parents who adored each other. They were highly respected, and I’d grown up never wanting for anything.
That didn’t mean I wasn’t a nice girl. In fact, my mother had called me too nice. Accommodating. In other words, I was easy to walk all over and had been several times in my life. Maybe that’s why I’d put all my time and effort into my beloved animals, changing majors, studying to become a veterinarian.
That was also likely the reason the couple of boyfriends I’d had in my life had been borderline abusive wanting only one thing. Sex. Sex. And more sex. I spent my days studying, my nights sleeping, not partying like a wild girl.
What I was about to do was without a doubt the wildest thing I’d ever done in my life. And I was merely a ripe old age of twenty-four. Fulfilling a fantasy. Taking a walk on the wild side, whatever that was. The expression was one I’d learned from my parents.
At least I could admit my faults. Dealing with people was one of them. The other? Embracing my kinkiness. Sure, I owned a vibrator or two, but had I ever done anything truly kinky? Nope. Not me. Not this girl. Even now, as I stood in front of a holograph imageboard, I was hesitant to give truthful answers.
That is except in my dreams. Laughter bubbled to the surface. This was just a natural step in entering the real world of kink. So my bestie had told me. Why had I listened to her?
Every desire fulfilled. Every fantasy allowed. Nothing to hold you back. We strive to ensure you’ll experience pleasure beyond your wildest expectations, or the credits will be returned in full.
The corporation’s moniker was right there on the wall, in the holograph image and nestled in every contract at least twice. My bestie had obviously used up months’ worth of leisure credits to provide me with such a tremendous gift and I’d almost allowed them to expire.
Exhaling, I glanced at the questionnaire again, chewing on my inner cheek. Fantasies. I had them. Every woman did. I’d just never acted on them, other than the use of a few kinky little implements now and again. I was as vanilla in the bedroom as it got. But here, I could be as kinky and filthy as I wanted to be. Hmm…
Rough or passionate.
The letters were three dimensional on the air screen, each one color coded to represent the ‘hotness factor’ of every question. This one was bright orange. Spicy. How come there wasn’t a selection for both? Okay, fine. Rough.
Adventurous or sensual?
Adventurous.
Acts of discipline?
Discipline. Hmmm… That had to mean spanking. Right? It was a yes or no question without choices. Great. I hesitated, shifting from one foot to the other. Someone, I sensed the droid controlling my fantasy was becoming impatient. Fine. Yes. I dragged my finger across the image screen, forcing another one to appear.
Consensual or nonconsensual.
Now I had to take a pause. This was nothing but a fantasy derived from my deepest, darkest thoughts but the question was one I’d never asked myself before.
Liar. Liar. Pants on fire.
I rolled my eyes and allowed my finger to hover from one answer to the other. “Hmmm… So, droid? Can you find me the biggest, baddest alpha male in the universe?” I issued the question out loud, although I wasn’t entirely certain the android controlling my little fantasy was either listening or programmed to give a shit.
“What would you prefer?” The voice was a shock, something so unexpected I felt more naked than I would have if I’d selected some form-fitting attire or if I was standing entirely nude.
“Um… A real bad boy? You know, a ruthless man who refuses to take no for an answer?”
I laughed because I was framing a hero from romance books of the past as well. That wasn’t in fashion any longer. There were no men in leather jackets taking a hot woman. I had to admit, hearing about the old days of how men were from my mother, who still read dirty novels, was enticing.
She’d even loaned me some of her prized possessions, books so erotic that I’d blushed more than once.
“I can program that in for you.”
I rolled my eyes. I could only imagine what the droid would come up with. Now I just needed to answer the questions without lying about them. At least my description was as far removed from my sinful dream as possible.
After groaning, I was truthful. Nonconsensual. There. Now all my dirty inner secrets were exposed. No one had to know. Right? Except the droids in charge of the expensive leisure time experience. But they weren’t human. They weren’t allowed to divulge a single answer for fear of being shut down.
It was funny how my bestie had known exactly what I’d needed for my birthday. Little brat. I read over the normal legalese, muttering as I read. “You will not hold anything that happens against the provider, or the persons, aliens, or robots portrayed in the fantasy.”
Well, duh. They weren’t real people or creatures. And who would want to have a sexual fantasy fulfilled with a freaking robot? Yucky.
“Same species or different?” I thought about the question for longer than I should. If I was going all out on a limb, then why not mix it up? I’d never been with an alien, although I’d had a few offers. Hmmm…
Alien. “Big, bad alien. By the way, droid. I want the god of all beasts.” I snickered at the thought. There was no such thing but why not test artificial intelligence out fully?
Why not enter into lala-land. Again?
Shut up, little voice.
I shifted to another page on the screen, the questions a little more benign.
Appropriate clothing? Yep. I’d selected comfortable and what my mother called slouchy. Since I wanted an adventure, arriving in a clingy dress and heels wouldn’t have worked. Pretend or not, I didn’t want to fall on my butt during the middle of it.
A dream or a possible taste of the future?
“Press select,” I said out loud although to myself. I had to make a choice. I wasn’t certain how a complex series of machines could possibly have a peek into the future but what the heck? I was a risk taker. Right?
The future was mine for the making, mine for the taking. That’s what my mother had taught me. Why not find out what the gods had in store for me?
Giggling, I pressed the appropriate button then stepped inside the capsule, placing the gaming command goggles across my eyes before lying down on the cushioned bench.
“Are you ready for the experience of your lifetime?” the droid voice asked in a far too sensual tone. Did it think changing the pitch would put me in the mood?
“Sure thing. Just one question. The possible future is really just a guestimate based on my answers. Right?”
“Karma is fickle and has already preselected your life.”
That was an answer.
“Okie-dokie.” I tried to relax, but I had a strange feeling pooling in the pit of my stomach. What if my future was provided letter for letter and I hated it? What then?
Stop. Just enjoy.
I remained fully clothed, as per my request given the choice of fantasies I’d selected. I certainly didn’t want to be caught dead completely naked in some strange setting when I’d requested rough and tumble style. Almost as soon as I closed my eyes, I gathered a sense of being pulled into a vacuum. I still couldn’t believe I’d shoved the coupon into the back of my drawer, only finding it when I was rummaging for my second vibrator.
I’d decided to treat myself after a particularly grueling week, longing to get away from the stress of everyday life. And live a little. What girl didn’t want her ultimate fantasy fulfilled? After answering the volume of questions, what karma had mind for me would start in mere seconds.
And I couldn’t be more excited, every inch of skin tingling.
And terrified.
The android whispered softly in the timbre of voice I’d chosen.
“Breathe deeply, Sunny. Allow yourself to feel the freedom of floating. Enjoy the ride.”
“Thank you,” I said automatically and shifted on the table, making myself more comfortable. Then I took several deep breaths as lights flashed in my periphery of vision, shapes beginning to form. And I’d never felt so free in my life.
Roar!
The horrible sound threw me. I jerked up, scanning the room. Wait. I was no longer in the laboratory setting. Now I was in a dark place, the only lighting torches of some kind lining the walls. Only they weren’t walls. They reminded me of being inside a damp cavern. The kind I’d never seen before. The surface appeared craggy.
And dear God, it was hot as Hades. I eased off the platform I was on, glancing down at my attire. I was dressed in what I’d arrived in, my veterinary scrubs and my favorite pair of Converse sneakers. Okay, they were my only pair, a relic from a way distant past, a gift from my mother. At least they were in my favorite color of shocking red.
I’d been lulled into an almost slumber, waking up to this. I wanted a dark fantasy, an adventure but where in God’s name was I? I shifted forward, trying to figure a way out. Then I noticed what appeared to be a tunnel leading into the darkest shadows I’d ever seen. I glanced around me, uncertain where I’d heard the horrific bellow.
There was nothing I could do but move forward and hope I’d run into the person who was supposed to seduce me. I took several steps, trying to figure out why my mind would select such a bleak setting.
I mean I hadn’t wanted a dance club or a fake ocean/beach scenario, but a dark, damp cave? This was the droid’s idea of a thrilling situation? I could see the robot had a sense of humor. Sadly, the droid had to grab the fantasy from my mind. Had I really been thinking this way? I guess it was possible. At this point, anything was. Maybe it was because I’d been working so many long hours. I continued forward, determined to make the best of this.
When I heard another growl, a very savage growl, I stopped in my tracks. Then something dawned on me. I’d assumed I’d be partnered with a human. What if the droids predicted my future with some kind of… alien being? Oh, God. I’d checked noncommittal on that question. The growl couldn’t have come from a typical human male. None of them were that rugged, especially in the passion department.
Okay, so maybe he had a pet. That would make sense. I did love animals, all kinds. Additional confidence settled in, and I shifted into the right mind set, allowing myself to enjoy the moment. It wasn’t every day a girl could live out her fantasy without fear of persecution.
I moved through the cavern, cognizant of additional sounds and vibrations coming from beneath my feet. And I could swear it was getting hotter, so much so beads of perspiration were trickling down both sides of my face.
With every step I took, I glanced over my shoulder. I had the feeling I was being watched, studied by a predator of some kind. I didn’t need to be afraid given this wasn’t real. Or was it? I shifted against the wall, a single yelp slipping past my lips from the touch. The surface was explosively hot. Fiery.
I heard a series of noises, hissing and spewing sounds coming from an unknown location. My skin began to crawl, hairs standing up on the back of my neck. Was something there? Had I also heard footsteps?
“Hello?” Dear God, my voice echoed. I leaned my head, taking a deep breath, my top already sticking to my skin. How could I get out of this? It was obvious something was fried within the fantasy system. I’d been sent to hell instead of a fantasy.
My voice echoed for several seconds.
Then I heard a dark, demonic laugh drifting from the direction where I’d come from.
I took off running, sprinting through one tunnel after another, praying to God there’d be something other than orange light. I was certain I could see something up ahead, a brighter light; even if it had a tangerine glow, it was better than being locked in a cave with a…
“Sunny. Come to your master. You now belong to me.”
The stark words caught me by surprise, the deep baritone igniting a fire deep within. Or had they shocked me? I had asked for a creature who refused to take no for an answer. I took a deep breath, holding it as I stopped moving altogether. The tone was sultry, dark, and soothing, like a warm blanket being slid over my naked body. There was a low rumble, the slight vibrations coursing through me electrifying.
Suddenly, I was hot and wet all over, but it had nothing to do with the temperature of the air.
“Who are you?” I asked. Where his voice was strong and powerful, mine was shaking and barely audible. That wasn’t like me.
“The being who will fulfill your darkest desires. That’s what you want. Isn’t it?”
Why did the voice have to sound so familiar? Had I manifested the dream from months before into this moment? I had a feeling I had.
I was certain the wild beast was moving closer, but I couldn’t tell exactly from which direction. After taking a deep breath, I slowly turned toward the melodic sound of his voice. In the shadows he stood, a formidable form that had to be at least seven feet tall. I’d been asked about likes and dislikes, but not about the person or creature I preferred. Maybe because I’d wanted a peek into my possible future, trying to still my fears that had started months before. I’d worked so hard to drive what could have been a premonition back into its former prison that I wasn’t certain what I wanted any longer.
