Nykon (Zenkian Warriors) (A Sci Fi Alien Abduction Romance)

  “Can’t another find him?” Luka said as she ran over to Kavik.

  “We will go,” the king said as he pulled out his blaster from his holster. “Melody, take them to safety. You know where,” he said.

  “Yes, this way,” she said as she grabbed Reena’s hand and pulled her to the side of the room. I watched as Phoenix pushed Luka along after the queen. “Go with them. I will come with you. I can help,” he said as he turned toward us. I looked at Kavik and the king. They nodded. The king grabbed a blaster gun off the wall and tossed it Phoenix. He lined up with us. I watched as Queen Melody opened a panel in the wall, a secret corridor of sorts, and pushed Reena and Luka in with her. Then the wall closed.

  “Let’s go,” King Hydros said. We moved out into the hall.

  “He’s still in the palace somewhere,” the guard said as we moved into the big halls of the palace.

  We had to find him. Kavik and I knew what he looked like, but to everyone else, he might just look like an un-shifted Draqua. It was up to us, and all I could think was that I might not live a second round with this Aeriwana Draqua. I would never see my Reena again or get to see our child born.

  CHAPTER THIRTEEN

  REENA RHODES

  After I heard the King declare that we could stay on Kelon and marry the Draqua warriors, I felt relief flood me. It felt like the last piece of the puzzle for my happiness. Now I would have it all. I would be in a new, adventurous home that looked like paradise. I would be with the alien dragon shifter that I loved. I would be having a child and be in a happy, loving family. I was giddy with joy. But I celebrated too soon. The amount of time between being granted permission to stay and the sound of the sirens was too short.

  I knew as soon as the first siren went off that there was major trouble because I had never heard that siren before in the village. But I knew another thing immediately: that whatever it was, Dekario would volunteer to deal with it. His honor as a warrior and his bravery made me very attracted to him, but it also made me have great fear of what would happen.

  “In here,” Queen Melody said as the siren blared and she opened up a wall. We slipped inside. It was a long secret passageway. She closed the wall panel, and it went dark except for a very dim light streaming in through the walls.

  “What is happening?” Luka whispered. “What is an Aeriwana doing in the palace?”

  Queen Melody sighed. She was about fifty years old, and I knew exactly who she was. She was the daughter of the president from thirty or so years before. I was not born then, but I had always heard about how that president’s daughter had been really reclusive during his presidency. When I arrived here and saw her, I knew that it was her, but I never said anything due to the fact that I knew that I would not be let back to Earth if I told them I knew. So I kept it to myself.

  “The King captured an Aeriwana Draqua in order to get information from him about where they were coming from. Now it seems he has escaped,” she said.

  “So what do we do now?” I asked feeling helpless. “How can we help?”

  “We can help by staying here,” she said.

  “But we do nothing?” Luka asked.

  “I learned long ago that my husband is better focused in a fight if he knows that I am safe. I do not want him to be unfocused because I want him returned to me. So in a matter of danger, I hide in the passageway. If the palace is sieged, it leads out into the jungle. But if not, I stay here and this is where my husband comes to find me,” she said with a bit of sorrow in her voice. I realized that she as very worried too. He was out there too, and it was possible that he may not return to her.

  “I suppose you are right. I have seen my wellbeing be a distraction for Dekario in a fight. I do not want him to worry about me,” I said.

  “So we stay here, and we are quiet,” Luka whispered.

  “Yes, exactly,” Queen Melody said.

  As we waited, I could hear the sounds of the sirens. Every now and then we would hear shouting and blaster guns. Then it would stop. It would be silent.

  It was complete agony standing there, not knowing. We held hands and hoped for our loved ones to return. I could not stand the idea of losing Dekario, not now when we were so close to happiness and feeling out of danger. I would not be able to do this without him. I placed a hand on my belly and comforted my child inside.

  “It will be fine. You will see,” the queen said.

  “Yes, it is a palace full of warriors against one Aeriwana Draqua,” Luka said. “They will be fine.”

  I smiled and then looked at the queen. “Was it difficult? The pregnancy?” I asked.

  “No. I assume it is just like being pregnant on Earth and giving birth. But I do not have that experience to compare it too. It is probably the same,” she smiled.

  “And your son, the prince, where is he?” Luka asked.

  “He is grown. He is a fine warrior. He is touring the galaxy, learning all that he can about it. My husband allowed him to do so. He says knowing about other planets and races will make him into a fine king. I agree with that,” she said.

  “Sounds like a smart Draqua,” I said.

  “Yes. Most hybrids are highly intelligent. You will see,” she smiled.

  “It has been quiet for some time now,” Luka said, interrupting our talk of motherhood and bringing us back to reality. Then the sirens suddenly went off.

  “What does that mean?” I asked the queen.

  “I am not sure. Let us stay quiet now that we do not have the siren to mask our voices,” she whispered.

  We stayed quiet holding hands practically crushing them as we squeezed in tension. Then the wall panel opened. “Melody?”

  The king’s voice was a relief. Melody let go of our hands and ran to the king. She emerged from the panel walls. Luka and I gave each other a look. We did not hear Dekario or Kavik call to us. We moved quickly and emerged from the wall into the king’s chamber. Kavik and Dekario walked in. They were dirty and blood stained.

  “Dekario!” I shouted as I ran to him. I threw myself into his arms. I was so happy to see him alive and well. It was torture waiting for him without knowing what was happening.

  “I told you I would come back. I always do,” he said.

  “Yes, you do,” I said as I reached up on my tiptoes and kissed him. I looked him over and said, “What happened? Are you hurt?”

  “I am fine. We got him. He’s dead. No need to be frightened any more,” he said as he hugged me.

  “Phoenix?” I asked.

  “He is fine. He went to the barracks with the warriors. He wants to start his training as a Draqua guard. I think he will be good at it,” Dekario said.

  “Let’s go home,” I said.

  “Yes, let’s go home,” he said. I turned to see the other two couples embracing as well. We were all happy and relieved. Dekario and I made our way home to his hut. We stayed in bed for the rest of the day until the next morning.

  A week later there was a grand marriage ceremony as promised by the king. It was a lot like the marriage ceremony of Earth. I stood next to Dekario with my hands in his. Luka did the same with Kavik. Everyone was gathered on the beach to watch us become one. We did not have vows, but the Draqua official said a few words that formed our ceremony.

  “This bond you both partake in. You are taking each other in union as mate and as husband and wife. From this bonding ceremony forth, you belong only to each other,” he said.

  Then our hands were tied with a long vine. It was beautiful, and I had tears in my eyes the entire time.

  “Are you happy, human female Reena?” Dekario asked me as he sat beside me on the beach during the large feast. The celebration was on the sand and food was being roasted over open fires. Draqua of all ages and hybrids or not were playing on the beach and in the water. It was a celebration, and everyone seemed to be having a great time.

  “I am so happy. Are you happy, Draqua Lieutenant Dekario Dundra? I asked him playfully in return.

  “I am ha
ppier than I ever thought I could be. You have made me a happy and proud husband,” he said as he leaned in and kissed me.

  “And you have made me a happy and pregnant wife,” I said laughing. He fed me a piece of fruit and then I kissed him again. I could never stop kissing him. He was so damn hot with his long dark hair, brown eyes, and rugged good looks. Not to mention that he was always in a loincloth and practically naked.

  Phoenix and Luka came to sit by me in the sand. Kavik sat on the other side of Dekario as they had their own conversation.

  “Can you believe this?” Phoenix said. “If I had told you when we set out on our mission from Earth that you were not coming back and you were going to marry aliens, you would have put me in the nuthouse.” He laughed.

  “That is true, and yet here we are, doing just that,” Luka laughed.

  “No, never in a million years did I think that I would ever meet an alien life form yet alone be married to one,” I said.

  “I think we owe it to Jason, Marcy, and Captain Wallace to be happy. To be very, very happy and in love. They sacrificed their lives for it. We need to make sure their deaths to not become taken for granted. They are the reason we are here,” Luka said.

  “Yes, to the crew,” I said, raising my cup of water in cheers to them.

  “And what about you, Phoenix? Where lies your happiness?” Luka asked.

  “She’s over there,” he said as he looked at Antaris. She was staring coyly at him. Then he said, “We are taking it slow. She is barren, and we have all the time to just get to know each other a little more. But I fall in love with her more and more every day. But something was missing from my life. After I helped with the incident in the palace, I realized that I missed the work of a soldier badly. Now that I am in training, I feel great. I am learning about alien warfare tactics, and it is just badass!” he laughed.

  “So we are all happy here in our new lives then,”Luka said.

  “Yes, we are,” I said as I hugged both of them. We had come a long way, and the adventure was only beginning.

  Now I at least felt safe now that the dangers that had been after us were eliminated. But I had learned that danger was always lurking as long as the opposition was out there. I knew that Dekario and the King thought that Commander Triq and Captain Hicium were not working alone and were only a portion of the opposition in hiding. But they were the immediate threats, and they were gone. Now there was just the distant threat. It still scared me, but I could not live my daily life in fear. I had already survived a lot. I knew that I was tough and could take on whatever the Draqua life brought to me.

  CHAPTER FOURTEEN

  LIEUTENANT DEKARIO DUNDRA

  Taking out Temuk was easier than I thought. Together we were able to stop him from escaping. But as we did so, we discovered something we did not know. While we were about to kill him, Temuk said something that gave us a lot of information. He said, “I only live a year. We all do.”

  That meant that these Aeriwana Draqua hybrids could only survive a year, or maybe slightly longer. This was excellent news for us. But for now, I wanted to only think about living a new life with my new wife.

  Reena Dundra was stunning in her wedding clothes of blue and green. Her long hair was braided with flowers, and her bare feet were delicate and beautiful in the sand. I loved her with more than energy than I could ever put into words.

  So as I carried her into my hut after our wedding celebration, I felt like this truly marked the beginning of a calm life together. It was what I craved.

  “What do we do now? What do the Draqua do on their wedding night?” she asked playfully.

  “What do the humans do on their wedding night?” I asked in return.

  “They consummate the marriage,” she laughed.

  “That is what the Draqua do as well. Let’s get started,” I laughed as I carried her into the room and placed her on the bed gently.

  “I feel like this is all we do all the time,” she said pushing her fingers into my hair.

  “Is that a complaint?” I asked arching a brow.

  “No, it is an observation. I am a scientist, remember?” she said.

  “How could I forget,” I said as I kissed her soft neck. She moaned and moved around under me.

  “I guess we should consummate the marriage and stick to tradition,” she whispered.

  “As you wish,” I said as I hungrily moved her dress up to her knees.

  She laughed. Then she said, “Since I did marry a dragon, I think I should consummate the marriage with a dragon.”

  I stopped kissing her. I looked at her and grinned. I got up from the bed and moved away from her. In a flash, I shifted into dragon form. I spread my wings out behind me to stretch them out. Then I folded them behind me. I took off my boots and loincloth and moved to her.

  “There’s my dragon-man,” she moaned. I crawled onto the bed and moved over her. I pulled carefully on her dress until it was over her head. Then I pulled off the cloths covering her swollen breasts. I kissed them lightly. Then I pulled off her loincloth very delicately. She spread her thighs for me, and I moved between then.

  “This is my first time entering you now that you are my wife,” I said as I positioned myself to enter her.

  “And my first time having my husband inside of me,” she moaned.

  I grinned at her words and pushed myself into her warmth. She felt so damn good, and it felt relieving to know that she was mine. She was now my mate and no one else’s, and I owned her body and mind and heart. She was my wife, and I needed that security of possession because she had been taken from me once and I would never let it happen again.

  I pushed further inside of her, and her head arched back. I was so tall over her that I had to look down my shoulders and chest to see her. She was small and delicate underneath me. I hovered over her, carrying all my weight on my arms so that I did not press against her and her belly.

  “That feels so good, Dekario, my husband,” she whispered.

  Her words and husky whisper turned me on. She was so damn hot I could barely stand to not be inside of her at all times. She drove me absolutely wild. I loved everything about her.

  “Are you all right still?” I asked as I looked down at her.

  “Yes, I am okay. Keep going, please,” she begged.

  “Yes, for you, anything,” I said as I moved in and out of her. I moved back and forth, savoring every single feeling and sensation. Moments later, we were both releasing in ecstasy. This was how we spent the next three days after our wedding. It was complete bliss.

  CHAPTER FIFTEEN

  REENA RHODES

  Months after our blissful wedding, our child was born. We had a beautiful Draqua warrior hybrid, a son. We named him Brenian. Luka also had a child, a son they named Xaser. I was glad that these two hybrid sons would have each other to grow up with. It was just like Kavik and Dekario; I knew that it was important to have another hybrid on your side. I was grateful that Luka and Kavik’s son would be like a brother to our son Brenian.

  After our encounter with Queen Melody, she became a close friend to Luka and I as we confided in her in everything that we should expect from our new lifestyles. She had already lived through it and was of great help. Not the mention that she was the queen and had access to everything.

  I never expected this much happiness when I set out on the science mission, but I was glad that I had found it. I was now a real scientist living out my own experiment as the wife and mother of an alien race. It was the adventure of a lifetime.

  SHIA HETON
/>   "We are under attack!” I shouted into the intercom of the research space station that I had lived on for over a year. “I repeat, we are under attack!”

  Boom! I was thrown across the experiment station room as the space station violently shook. I didn't know if this was because it had been bombed or had been rammed, but either one was very terrifying.

  Sirens blared into the air and red and blue lights flashed off and on in the chaos. I could only think of one thing. “They found us” I said out loud to myself.
