“Oh, my,” the princess moaned. “That feels sooo good.”
I continued to lick and suck her slit until I felt her body tense in an all too familiar way. Sef’sla arched back and pushed herself against me as she came, and my mouth was filled with the fluid of her orgasm. It was salty and tangy, and I let it run down my chin as I lapped up all that I could.
I couldn’t take it any longer, so I stood up and tore my flight suit off before I lifted Sef’sla onto the counter and kissed her deeply. As my tongue explored her mouth, I reached down and rubbed my tip against her soaking wet pussy.
She was so wet it made me throb.
“Please,” Sef’sla hissed. “Fill me.”
I groaned as I thrust my cock deep inside her, and we both gasped at the feel of it. I slid in easily, and I felt her spasm around me as her hands came to my back to hold on for dear life.
I reached up and grabbed Sef’sla’s beautiful blue locks from behind, and I pulled them down so her neck was exposed to me. Then I sucked on her deep blue-green skin until she thrust her pelvis harder against mine.
“Oh, yes,” she moaned. “Please, please, CT … I want you so bad.”
I pulled myself out to the tip then thrust back in fast and hard, and the princess gasped and let out a sexy laugh.
“Oh, more, more, please,” she hissed, and her grip on my back grew tighter.
I smiled at the princess and thrust my cock in and out of her as hard as I could. I could feel the tension building in myself, but in her as well. The harder I went, the more she arched back and became rigid. Soon, she was nearly bent backward over the table, and her hips were lifted so I could get deeper and deeper with each thrust.
“CT!” she cried as another orgasm rocked through her.
Sef’sla’s pussy squeezed my cock and pulsed around it while another rush of liquid was released and poured down my legs. The heat was enough to drive me wild, and it only took one more thrust before my own release came on, and I let myself come inside of her over and over again until she was filled.
After we’d finished, I breathed heavily against her chest for a moment before I pulled back and gave her a wicked grin.
“You are absolutely stunning,” I said as I ran my finger over her still taut nipple. “Have I told you that yet today?”
“I don’t believe so,” the princess clicked with a smile. “Not in so many words at least.”
“I’ll have to make up for it, then, won’t I?” I teased.
“I think you just did,” she laughed.
“Well, I’m happy to be of service,” I chuckled, and I groaned as I slid out of her and pulled on my flight suit.
The princess got dressed as well, then she quickly went back to tend to her plants.
“So,” I said as I came up behind her and wrapped my arms around her waist. “Do you think it will take the full three days for the medicine to be finished?”
“Not quite,” she said. “You see this light and how it is bright white now?”
“Yes.” I nodded.
“I have increased the grow lights so the antibiotic plants will grow faster,” she explained. “It should be two days until we have enough for the entire city.”
“I thought we had some stockpiled?” I asked. “Should it really take this long?”
“We do have some medicine,” Sef’sla conceded, “but not enough. Because we have no way to guarantee the amount of each dose since it will go into the water supply, we have to overdose the pond. Akela did all the calculations, and we need about double what we would if we were to inject it in order to be safe.”
“That makes sense,” I mused. “That way, even if someone only drinks a small amount of the water, they will still get enough of a dose to help them.”
“Right,” the princess sighed. “It is sad, since we have enough to cure them now if they would only let us.”
“I know,” I said, “but the king seems like a nice man, and I’m sure this is the best way. We don’t want to upset the Gelm people.”
“I know you are right,” Sef’sla said, “and I do like the king, he is the most reasonable of the royalty we have met so far. I was appalled at the actions of the Elphad.”
“I’m sure you were,” I laughed. “I was appalled, too.”
“On Proxima V, it is a leader’s job to be more conscientious, not less,” she murmured with a shake of her head. “The Elphad are not suited to be leaders.”
“I don’t think so, either,” I agreed, “but that’s not for us to decide.”
“You’re right,” Sef’sla sighed. “As long as we help the people, that’s all that matters.”
I couldn’t help but grin at the Almort female. She’d only been with me for a short amount of time, but I was already so proud to call her a member of my flight crew. She was incredibly compassionate, and her passion for life was clear in everything she did. I knew she only wanted what was best for the Gelm people, and it saddened me that she had to witness the Elphad treat their citizens this way, but I knew this was part of the reason she’d left her home world to come along with me. She wanted to see new planets and experience new places, but most of all, she wanted to help everyone.
“What?” Sef’sla chuckled when she caught my gaze. “Why do you look at me so?”
“I just love you,” I murmured.
“Oh,” the princess said, and she looked down, then back up at me through her lashes. “I love you, too, Colby Tower.”
I grinned in response.
It would never get old hearing a princess say she loved me.
Chapter 11
“Hey,” I said as I walked into the lab the next morning. “Who’s hungry?”
Nobody responded. Each of the girls were completely focused on the task in front of them.
Sef’sla stood over the lab table, with a small beaker and a tube in front of her as she studied something under a microscope. Her long blue locks hung over her shoulder, and it was impossible not to stare at the curve of her back as she bent forward to get a better look.
Neka pruned the plants and gave them water while she rubbed her face up against them in a typical cat-like manner, and I could hear her low purr even from where I stood.
Meanwhile, Akela sat cross-legged on the floor with an assortment of small, mechanical pieces laid out in front of her. She had a smudge of grease on her nose already, and I had to smile at how cute she was.
“Ahem,” I cleared my throat and tried again. “I said, ‘who’s hungry?’”
“Oh!” Neka gasped, and her head shot up to look at me. “I’m hungry!”
“Thank you,” I chuckled and handed her a plate.
The cat girl shoved one of the pieces of fruit into her mouth, and her eyes crinkled with a happy smile.
“Fanks, CT,” she purred around her mouthful, and she kissed me on the cheek.
“You’re welcome,” I said. “Do you need any help?”
“I don’t think so,” Neka replied, and she popped another piece of fruit into her mouth as she continued to prune the plants.
“What about you?” I asked as I walked over and set a plate down next to Sef’sla. “Are you hungry?”
“Not right now,” the Almort princess clicked, but she didn’t move her eyes away from the beaker in front of her.
“I’ll just leave this here, then,” I said, and I kissed her on the cheek.
“Thank you,” Sef’sla hissed, and she looked at me for the first time since I’d entered the room.
“You’re welcome,” I told her with a grin.
There was only one of my loves left, but she was the most dangerous when it came to interrupting her work. So, I hesitantly walked toward Akela, and she glared up at me from where she sat on the floor.
“Not hungry,” she growled.
“Alright.” I gave her a small nod, and I slowly set the plate on the floor. “I’ll leave this here for you.”
I slid the plate toward her, then backed away slowly in a mock show of fear.<

“She’s not a wild animal,” Sef’sla laughed.
“You haven’t seen her when she’s deep into her work,” Neka muttered.
“I’m not that bad,” Akela protested.
“You threw a wrench at me once,” I snorted.
“You were annoying me,” the silver-haired beauty said with a shrug.
“Oh, my,” Sef’sla said, and her eyes widened.
“I’m sure you’ll be fine,” I stage-whispered to the princess. “Just don’t talk to her today.”
“Thanks for the advice,” she laughed.
I left the girls with their breakfasts and took my own plate to my captain’s chair. I knew it would be a long couple of days, and I wanted to work with Omni on setting up some plans for the Gelm civilization, while the girls worked on the medicine going into the water supply. I couldn’t be much help with that, so I thought I’d work with Omni on some other changes we planned to implement.
“Hey, O,” I said. “Can you bring up a map of the Gelm civilization?”
“One moment, Colby,” the AI replied, and a second later, a map appeared on the screen above me.
“Thanks,” I told him.
“What else can I help you with?” Omni asked. “Are you making plans to improve their cities?”
“Yes,” I chuckled. “You can help.”
Omni could be a smart ass sometimes, but if there was one thing he was good at, it was planning. Within a few hours, we had figured out where the electrical stations would need to go, the best new roadways to get between the cities, how to install plumbing channels, and where to place the landing pads for the travelers who would soon come through.
After we’d finished, I stretched in my seat and stood up.
“Did all that work tire you out?” the AI asked, and I could practically hear him mocking me.
“It did, in fact,” I teased. “I think I’ll go check on the girls.”
I headed to the lab, but found Sef’sla and Neka on their way toward the ramp.
“Where are you two going?” I asked.
“Sef’sla needs some water samples,” Neka informed me as she bounced on her toes.
“You were going to go alone?” I frowned.
“There’s a pond very close to here, remember?” Sef’sla said. “We saw it when we first arrived.”
“Yes,” I conceded, “but you shouldn’t go out by yourselves. I’ll come with you, too.”
“Okay,” Neka chirped with a broad smile. “Let’s go!”
The cat-girl wrapped her tail around my wrist and began to pull me toward the door. Sef’sla followed along as well, and a wide, opalescent grin spread across her face.
I would have to have a serious talk with the girls later about wandering off on their own, though. Not only did I have a plasma gun in case there was trouble, but also, with the assassination attempt that had happened already, I didn’t want them to be caught unarmed in the middle of another one.
I pressed my hand to the pad to open the door, and the ramp came down with a whoosh. I scanned the area quickly, then led the girls down the ramp toward the deep, gray dirt of the planet.
It was a beautiful day, with two bright suns that shone down with an intense heat. I could feel my face grow hot as we walked, but I kept a brisk pace so we were outside for as little time as possible.
“You’re walking so fast,” Neka complained after a few moments.
“I don’t want us to encounter any trouble,” I explained. “The Gelm people aren’t our biggest fans at the moment.”
“Oh, right.” The cat-girl frowned and jogged a little to keep up with me.
“We will work quickly,” Sef’sla assured me with a nod. The Almort princess didn’t have as much trouble keeping up with my long strides since she was so much taller than Neka.
Once we reached the pond, I stood guard while Sef’sla and Neka knelt down to the water. Sef’sla had a small case with her, and she opened it up and pulled out several vials and a pipette.
The pond itself was maybe one hundred meters across, and it was a deep, blue color like most small pools filled with vegetation. Long reed-like plants shot out of the sides of the water, and some large leaves floated on the top. It was a beautiful little place, and under different circumstances, I would have thought it a perfect spot for a picnic, but we hadn’t been outside of the Gelm cities much since we arrived, which meant the wildlife could be quite dangerous. If it wasn’t an assassin, it could easily be some sort of creature with large fangs and a taste for blood.
I kept one hand on my plasma gun as I scanned the area, but the only sounds were the wildlife around us, and I saw nothing out of the ordinary.
Sef’sla filled the first of her vials while Neka batted at the bugs that strode across the top of the water. The cat-girl looked more human than anything, aside from the ears and tail, but there were certain feline instincts that she often just couldn’t ignore. I thought the behavior quite endearing, and I found myself watching her as she played.
“Almost done,” Sef’sla clicked, and I realized she’d filled three of the five vials already.
“Good,” I said.
Neka continued to play with the water bugs while Sef’sla filled the vials, and I scanned the water for signs of anything dangerous.
“What’s that?” Neka asked suddenly, and her ears perked up.
“What?” Sef’sla hissed as she put away the last vial.
“I heard something,” Neka said and cocked her head to the side.
“What did you hear?” I asked, and my eyes narrowed with concern.
“I’m not sure,” the cat-girl whispered. “It sounded like rustling in the plants.”
“O,” I said into my earpiece as I pulled out my plasma gun and aimed it at the pond.
“Yes, Colby?” the AI answered.
“Scan the area around us,” I said quickly. “Are there any creatures nearby?”
“Creatures?” Omni asked. “Do you mean Gelm, or wildlife?”
“Either,” I whispered. “Just hurry.”
“Alright,” the AI sighed.
“What is it?” Sef’sla asked as she closed the case and looked around.
“I don’t know yet,” I said, but I kept my eyes glued onto the small pond.
“Uh, Colby,” Omni’s voice sang into my earbud once more.
“Yes?” I asked. “Is there something by us?”
“There is,” O informed me, “and it’s not Gelm.”
“Well, what the hell is it?” I asked through clenched teeth.
“I’m unsure exactly,” the AI replied. “There’s not much data on the wildlife on Zalia, but whatever it is, it is fairly large.”
“How large?” I demanded, and that was when I saw the reeds at the edge of the water rustle a few hundred yards from us.
“Three hundred pounds, at least,” O told me.
“Shit,” I muttered. “Let me know if it gets closer. We’re going to make a run for it, make sure the ramp is down.”
“Be careful,” the AI said, and his voice almost seemed concerned.
“Okay,” I told the girls. “Stand up slowly.”
Neka and Sef’sla did as I requested, and I took a step forward so I was in front of them. Once again, the grass rustled, and I set my plasma gun on it.
“Now,” I whispered, “begin to walk slowly back toward the ship, and when I tell you to, you run.”
“CT,” Neka breathed behind me. “I’m scared.”
“We’ll be alright,” Sef’sla answered for me, and her voice was confident. “If Colby can kill an Opalks, then this beast will be nothing.”
“Okay,” the cat-girl replied, but I could still hear the panic in her voice.
“Walk slowly,” I instructed as I took a careful step back, with my sights still on the edge of the water where I knew the creature was hiding.
As we took slow steps, I saw the reeds rustle more and more, and then I could see the creature move.
“Come on, yo
u sonofabitch,” I whispered. I had no idea what we were up against, but three hundred pounds of anything unknown was a scary thought, and paired with the fact that the thing appeared to be stalking us, well, that just sent shivers down my spine.
I kept a steady pace as I backed up slowly, with the girls behind me. I could hear their heavy breathing, and I knew my own wasn’t any better. My entire body was on edge with adrenaline.
Suddenly, the reeds at the edge of the water began to move more quickly, and I realized the creature was on the warpath.
“Run!” I shouted, and the girls took off toward the ship.
I held my ground for a moment, with my plasma gun pointed at the edge of the water. I needed to get the girls to the ship, that was all I could think about.
A moment later, the beast flew out from the reeds. It was a massive, four-legged creature with slick looking skin, a wide face full of long, sharp teeth, and webbed toes. The thing looked almost amphibious, but it was massive.
As it charged toward me, I fired and caught it in the shoulder, but the wound only threw the creature to the ground for a moment before it got right back up and came after me again.
“Fuck,” I muttered to myself as I took off toward the ship.
The girls were at least ten meters ahead of me, but they were still in my eyeline. I held my plasma gun behind me and turned back to let off another shot at the creature. The bolt of energy caught the beast in the foot, and it tumbled to the ground once more, but got up just as quickly.
“CT!” Neka called from in front of me, and I turned to see her and Sef’sla looking back.
“Look forward!” I shouted. “Run!”
The girls turned to the ship, but as they did, Sef’sla tripped over a rock and went flying across the dirt.
“Sef’sla!” I yelled.
Neka picked up the Almort princess and dragged her toward the ship.
“Wait!” Sef’sla hollered, and she tried to pull herself away from Neka. “My samples!”
I looked to see the case on the ground, with the vials spilled out around it.
Shit.
I could hear the beast behind me as I ran, and though it had taken a couple of shots, it didn’t seem to be going any slower than it had been before.
