“Scarlet, you can put a stop to all of this. By choosing before we get into it, you can prevent one of us from dying at the other’s hands.” Niles did not really have any desire to fight, but he would if he was forced into a corner. He was laying the ultimatum at Scarlet’s feet and hoping that she would decide to choose him, instead of a beefcake like Kaman.
“I know that I could, but I kinda like that you are fighting over me. I know that doesn’t sound good, but I can’t help the way I feel. I’m not sure how I am supposed to choose. Kaman has the right to fight for me and I can’t take that away from him.” “I’ve never been one for barbarism, but seeing their blood lust and their desire to have me has only made it that much more difficult to pass up the opportunity of seeing them fight for the honor of my hand. I never wanted any of this and I would’ve been quite content to continually sleeping with those men that would be chosen by their sexual prowess.”
“So, we are destined to fight against each other. Let the best man win. I do hope that you don’t feel any insecurity about losing to a boy.” Niles was grateful that this wasn’t meant to be hand to hand combat. He could probably get in a few licks, but in the end Kaman would stand over him in victory. “I believe that the vessels in question have been prepared for launch.” Niles motioned for Kaman and Scarlet to join him out on the back side of the property.
The two cylinder silver contraptions with black wings were ready for all three of them to jump on board. Before she was able to climb in, Kaman reached around her waist and pulled her into an embrace. “I see that you’re not the type of man to wait around for an invitation.” He kissed her and she felt obligated to let it happen. After all, one of them wasn’t coming back from this. Once the vessel was destroyed, her body would be transported back to the planet to wait for the victor to fly down and collect their prize.
The vessels were only made for one, but they could squeeze in another. It was a tight fit, but the close quarters had only made the heat between Scarlet and Prince Niles almost unbearable. “I probably should have left you here, but I wanted you to be there to witness my vanquishing of my enemy.” Niles had heard enough about Kaman to know that he was unpredictable at the best of times. His aptitude for strategy was that of a tactician. He was going to have to try to get into the man’s head. It was a little disconcerting to see Kaman’s dark hair moving like that of snakes. His follicles had a life of their own and it was said that he could use his long hair, as weapons to take out an opponent by suffocating them.
“I’m exactly where I want to be, Prince Niles. I don’t know Kaman. We have never really talked. I don’t have any feelings for him one way or the other. I would rather that we don’t have to go through this ugly business, but I understand how this works. Tradition is one thing that has been upheld in all of our lives. I know that you don’t like this, but I need to see you defend me.”
“I’m glad to hear you say that, Scarlet. I would hate to think that you were trying to screw me over in some way. You may see my family, as tyrants, but we only do what we need to do to maintain order. This planet is the hub for all those that surround it and even for those that are out in the distance. We have been in control for some time, but we’re not exactly blind to those that covet what we have. The battle of one is antiquated and should have been abolished a long time ago. It was made in those days that peace was required by force. We have evolved to that of a voting procedure, but we have never taken out the equation of going back to the old ways.” He started up the particle engine underneath the vessel. The hum was only thing to signify that it had come alive.
He could see that his father was unable to attend, or maybe he just didn’t feel like showing up. It really didn’t matter and the choice was out of his hands. This was something that he had to do.
“I think that there comes a time that every species has to look in on themselves and realize that they are only doing themselves more harm than good.” Scarlet had inadvertently grabbed onto his very strong blue arm. His strength could probably take on anyone, but Kaman was not just anyone. He was versed in doing things hand to hand. The one thing that she knew of him was that there was no quit. “I think that after this is done that all of us should sit down and go over the rule book very carefully. Take out those things that do not belong any more with a consensus around the table. Our parents will want to be involved and they will fight for the old ways, but we are of the new guard. That should account for something.” “I’ve never been one to go into politics and those things seemed mundane and stupid to me. I do have to admit that these old ways are doing nobody any good. We need to be more civilized and if I have to bring these species into the future, then that is what I’m damn well going to do. I can also see that battle is one thing that makes Prince Niles unusual condition more prevalent.”
Kaman watched, as their vessel rose into the air and then shot off into space. He sighed, knowing that he was most likely better than that of the royal family that controlled the rights to the natural resources. It was never like this, but there were those that took advantage and tried to strip this land. That was when there was a consortium put into place and then one royal family from the worlds’ would be voted in, as the hand that held the power. This decision was not made lightly and it took many days of deliberation to come to a viable solution.
Kaman looked down at the ground, as his own engine had displaced a patch of grass, until it was dead from the heat that was expelled. He pressed the button and was soon joining the other vessel in space. He should have felt badly that Scarlet did not choose him to stand beside, but they never had a chance to get to know each other. He had heard from others through the Grapevine that she was a woman that had her own mind. It was that independence that he desired to take into his fold. He wanted a chance to break her and make her realize her place was at his feet.
Chapter 6
“I think we need time to come up with a suitable plan of attack. What I’m going to do is use a strategy that was part of my family’s legacy. The dwarf star will mask our signature and will give us time to wait him out. I do know one thing about most adversaries and they tend to want to strike first. His impatience will get the best of him. We’ll be able to take him out quickly and efficiently. I hope that you don’t find my attitude towards killing to be callous, because it’s meant to be anything but.” He felt her hand on his hard cock. There wasn’t much room, but she was certainly making the most of what they had.
“I like the way that you think. This decisive attitude really does make me wonder what kind of lover you will be. If what we have already done is any indication, then I can imagine that both of us will have big smiles on our faces.” “Prince Niles has never been too far away from my thoughts, but I think that I avoided him for a reason. My parents were dead set that I get together with him and I was doing everything I could to rebel against their wishes. I still didn’t see a need to settle down with kids, but sex and love doesn’t necessarily have to go hand in hand. I will say that he doesn’t seem like the kind of sniveling man that I thought he was. He’s not one to lay back and let others do his dirty work. I think that he only gives Sousa that role, because it was demanded of him.”
“I don’t think that going down on me is necessary. What I do think is necessary is for me to reciprocate for that wonderful blow job that you gave me. Battle is not the only thing that I have been taught to be great at. Sex and the animal heat that you feel between us is an art form. Just like battle, there is a certain give and take that must be adhered to. I myself like to tease, until the lady in question is begging for that release. My father sent me two Caldor girls. Let’s just say that my virginity has not been my own for quite some time. The two ladies from that species were responsible for giving me the tutelage in the female form.” He didn’t have to look at Scarlet to know that she was impressed. The sigh that he heard coming from her lips was a good way to understand that she thought it was wrong to be given that gift.
“I guess you
never know what your family is capable of. Mine was more repressed and I had to learn that kind of lesson the hard way. Those fumbling hands and the feel of awkwardness were not something that I would wish on my worst enemy. Your father did you proud by giving you those girls to practice on I may not agree, but it’s not my place.” “I had heard about the Caldor women and their legendary status was known across the stars. They were sexually open and once unleashed on a prey they would turn you into a puddle of your former self. I would have loved to see them in action with a prince that was naïve in the act of love. The surprise on his face would have been something to see. I think that I should let myself receive and get a bird’s eye view of what he has been taught for myself.”
Raising her dress, she showed him that he was about to have the first shock. There were no undergarments and what met his eyes was the soft supple flesh of her thighs. He moved in between her legs with his mouth poised to strike his tongue like a serpent out of his mouth. He touched the hard clit and began to suck it into his mouth. It stretched to almost 3 inches.
“I….ahhh…can see that they didn’t mess around when they got their hands on you. You…oohhh….know how to make your point abundantly clear.” Scarlet was a little breathless and she felt that this would have been a whole lot better someplace more private with a lot more room. Adjusting to the situation, she lifted her legs, until her feet were planted on the chair that she was sitting in. She spread her knees a little wider, which of course split her down the middle and opened her up for a more concentrated look. “This guy took his lessons well and I suppose I shouldn’t have expected anything less from a man of his obvious breeding. I’d heard that no gender was off limits to the Caldor women. I can only imagine what they did to the good prince to open up his eyes to the pleasure that could be had.”
He lashed at the tip of her clit, pulling it back into his mouth and then wrapping his tongue around the entire thing several times. When he felt that she was close, he pulled away and left her begging with her eyes for more. “This is where we quiet things down and then start over from the beginning. Those girls had a way of prolonging the inevitable. I thought that my father was exaggerating their prowess, but it turned out that I was ill advised. They had me screaming and I mean literally screaming for some kind of satisfaction. I came four times that night and when they left, I was pretty much exhausted. I slept for a good 12 hours and when I awoke; I thought that it was a dream. The only way that I knew that it was real was by the soiled sheets and by the knowing look that I got from my father.”
She didn’t have the words to scream at him to get back to what he was doing. She was staring at her clit and it started to recede back to its normal size. It was then that he attacked; taking his time and bringing it back to what it was. When he had it good and hard, he subjected her hole to the agility of his long outstretched tongue. It separated in the middle inside her and began to flutter in different directions.” I really had no idea that you could do that with your…fucking tongue. My god…you are a fucking animal…a fucking wild uncaged animal.” She pushed her body up against his face, until her legs moved on their own accord, until they were wrapped around his head.
The prince struggled for breath, wishing for her to release him, so that he could breathe again. Her juices were thick and delicious. It was like he had awakened to a new experience that made him grin with a satisfaction. He didn’t know that he was capable of this. After that night with the girls, he never did try out his expertise on some unsuspecting young thing. He was always being watched by his father and those that they employed. He was to remain untouched, until the age of choice was upon him. There was no way that he could rebel, but this certainly did make up for lost time. Her orgasm was something that felt overwhelming and there was a moment that he really did think that he was going to pass out from lack of oxygen.
With a final sigh, her muscles gave out and her grip on the prince’s head was released. She lay there with her body on display. Her nervous system was completely fried. She had had several lovers, but nothing like that. She didn’t even know how she could categorize something like that. This was in a league of its own and maybe she was too impulsive to think that there was no future between her and the prince. “I don’t even know how to speak anymore. My voice is lost. I try to say anything and there’s nothing there. I may have to rethink my decision about having a strictly physical relationship. If I have to settle down, then I could do a whole lot worse than a prince with the flair for the dramatic.” She looked down at her sex and saw the swollen puffy lips and knew that only one thing could even come close to beating what he had already done.
“I can see from the look on your face that you’re slightly taken back. I’ve always planned to give a girl my best and I think that I proved that here today. We satisfied each other in different ways, but there is still things that we need to do to make our union complete. My father will insist on watching our first time. I know that it’s in bad taste, but that is the way that it has been done for centuries. He will offer some suggestions, or he will stand to witness that momentous moment between the two of us. I know that you might feel uncomfortable doing that, but I’m afraid that this is something that is not negotiable.”
“I’m really not sure what you want me to say to something like that. I’m not opposed to a little voyeurism, but having your father there is taking things a bit too far. I’m not saying no, but it’s going to take a lot of getting used to to having him seeing me naked like that.” I thought that I was kinky enough, but having his father present was certainly taking things to a different level. I suppose, if I could block him out it wouldn’t be so bad. I can only hope that he doesn’t yell out instructions in the middle of it. I guess I’m going to have to try to show him that his son is in good hands. It could be fun, but only in the aspect that it would make his father feel uncomfortable in his own skin.”
I’m sure that you are thinking that you want to jump into my lap and ride me all the way to a sunset of the two suns. That can’t happen, but I think that you’ll see that your limbs are not exactly in any shape to attack any one. If I did my job right and I followed those girls’ lessons to the letter, then you really shouldn’t have any energy to raise a finger in my direction.” He watched her turn her head and she did indeed try to lift her hand, but it was to no avail. “I’m surprised that you were even able to turn your head. I did go off the script, but I think that I perfected that technique a little bit more than what it was. Your skin is probably still tingling and I can tell that your nipples have not gone down. I do like you this way in a more subservient role than the pain the ass that you have been known to be. That fire is the only reason why we are here today. You’ve shown that you don’t bow down and that in itself will make for some interesting conversation around the dinner table with my father.”
She sat there she tried to say something, but her lips had become parched. She needed a moment to collect herself. He wasn’t wrong about her skin still tingling from the aftereffects. “I wish that I could convey to him how much that meant to me. He is a man amongst men. I thought that he was a little boy, but there is nothing little about this man in any size shape or form. I loved every moment of satisfying that itch with other lovers, but maybe I don’t have to look any further than the prince. Getting together with him will certainly make my parents happy. I’ve never wanted to please them in any way, but this will be a good gesture of faith on my part. Perhaps I can mend some broken fences.”
“Scarlet, I do want to mention that there is a caveat to our consummation. We can both have other lovers, but only in the presence of one another. To be honest, I’m curious to call upon the services of the girls again. I’m not suggesting that I be with them, but I’m not opposed to that either. What I would really like to see is for them to work their magic on your body and for me to watch, as you become unglued from the inside out.” The proximity alarm went off in the vessel and the enclosure began to glow with this eerie incandesc
ent red light.
Scarlet was still breathing heavy. She could feel her heart beating like never before. Thankfully, her other heart was keeping things a little bit more calm, but not by much. Her legs were still trembling and her little pussy lips were still pumping like they were trying to grab on to something.
“It looks like my ruse didn’t exactly work out, as planned. He knows that we’re here. He’s in the process of targeting our ship through the dwarf star. I don’t know how that’s possible, but with him anything is possible.” He powered up the ship and moved away from the very spot where a beam of light barely missed them by a whisper. The battle of one had come to them. It was time to finish this once and for all.
Chapter 7
Kaman had calibrated his equipment. It took some time, but he finally located where they were hiding. He had a feeling that they would wait for him to strike first. He was more than happy to do so. He had them lined up for the kill shot and when he fired, he was expecting to hear the explosive discharge of their engines. Unfortunately, what he heard was only silence and then a beam of light streaked across his bow from out of nowhere. He maneuvered into a spin that turned him into a reflector.
“You’re full of surprises, Kaman. I didn’t think that there was a way for you to detect us, but apparently I was wrong. I’m not usually one to overestimate my opponent, but I guess I have got complacent. I will not make that mistake again.” Had the ship exploded, the moment before contact Scarlet would’ve been beamed down to the planet’s surface. “I don’t know what you are doing, but it appears to be having an adverse affect on my controls.” Prince Niles delved into his mind, but his thoughts were jumbled like something was interfering with his neural receptors.
