Universe Hunters: Taken

by C. L. Scholey

For heaven’s sake, I hid behind a tree to scratch my poison ivy ass.

  “You need to understand,” Cali said desperately. “I’m not a prisoner, well not really. I know how this looks.” She raced on when he narrowed his eyes onto her. He curled his lips into a terrifying display of fangs. “I was injured by two aliens on Earth. They hunt the creature you are talking about. They came here to kill it. But they didn’t know what to do with me so they stuck me in here. They will take me home after they are done hunting in this galaxy. I can’t stay here. Once I leave this cell I won’t be able to understand you, there is a translator helping us communicate. I may never understand you once we leave this cell.”

  The creature relaxed. “It doesn’t matter. There are ways a male can communicate with his female. Like touch.” The beast gently rubbed his hand across her shoulder. “I am not here to hurt you. I am Crone. You will be safe with me. I will care for you. I will make you happy. Please don’t be afraid.”

  Black eyes gazed down at her. He looked like a lost puppy and for a second, Cali felt bad for him. She felt worse for herself, bombarded with images of that over-a-foot long cock trying to make its way inside of her while being gawked at by hideous creatures such as Crone.

  Happen, not gonna.

  “Crone,” she began, her tone desperate.

  “You will always understand when I want you. Listen to my tone.”

  Crone made a growl deep within his throat. It was desire, want, and strangely enough a safe loving sound. He pulled Cali to his chest so she could feel the rumbling noise beneath his breastbone. Her boobs flattened to his gorilla chest and Cali thought her heart would stop.

  “Back away.” Cali heard the shouted command.

  Peeking around Crone, she could see Blazar and Deimos. They looked angry. Cali felt a strong sense of relief wash over her. Finally, the cavalry.

  “This is my female now,” Crone bellowed.

  “The female belongs to no one,” Blazar explained. “She is being returned to Earth.”

  “Our females are almost gone,” Crone yelled. His words were a snapping growl and grunts.

  “The threat to your planet has been eliminated,” Blazar patiently explained. “You will lose no more of your people.”

  Crone howled. He clutched Cali harder to his chest in a desperate way; her bones felt crushed, and she cried out in pain. Deimos scowled and moved like lightning. Cali had never seen anything like it. A man of Deimos’ size should have been no match for the massive beast and yet with less than three blows the beast was curled on the ground. Snarling, Deimos yanked Cali into his arms and strode from the cell, leaving Blazar to deal with their uninvited guest.

  Cali remained wide-eyed and open-mouthed. Deimos plopped her onto the healing table, but Cali scooted off. He handled her as though she weighed no more than a toddler. The two stood almost eye to eye. Cali was an inch taller, but with his physique she felt tiny. For some reason she suddenly felt very small and weak. She could sense raw power and wondered at it. Blazar strode in looking none too happy.

  “We are airborne,” he said. “The beast is gone. Deimos, you shouldn’t have hurt it. It wouldn’t have injured Cali.”

  “It was scaring Cali. And its dangly thing was almost twice the size of ours. Are you certain the length is right?”

  Cali shook her head. Men and size, it was even a male alien thing. “Crone didn’t hurt me.”

  “He wanted to mate with you,” Blazar said. He circled Cali. “This thing you call a cock has a purpose beyond spewing waste, doesn’t it?”

  Cali tilted her head defiantly. “My kind and obviously Crone’s kind use their cocks to mate with.”

  “How?” Deimos asked.

  Cali sighed. It was honest curiosity nothing more. “A man and woman, or male and female join. A male puts his male part, his cock into a female.”

  “Why?” Blazar asked.

  Exasperated Cali threw her arms in the air. “To show they love each other, to produce offspring, it can be a pleasurable act.”

  “Would you like us to return you to Crone so we can see this pleasurable act?” Blazar asked.

  “Hell no.”

  “Oh.” Both men looked confused.

  “I’m starving and I need to sleep,” Cali said.

  “You would like to wear more food?” Deimos asked.

  “No I want to eat food,” she whined.

  The men looked at each other, shrugged and left only to return with the sticky white substance.

  “We do not require sustenance but enjoy this on occasion. We keep it handy for our captives. It never spoils and stores well.”

  Blazar demonstrated by holding the substance up, he worked it in his hands and opening his mouth the cottony mass slid past his lips and up his nose. He worked more of the substance between his hands until it was a soft mass with traces of powder and handed some to Cali. With a smile he encouraged her to try. Tentatively Cali put some in her mouth. Some slipped up her nose making her sneeze.

  “I’m guessing this is what a cobweb tastes like,” she grouched and spat it out.

  Exhausted, Cali climbed onto the table curled up on her side. It was cold and uncomfortable. She felt miserable. Blazar and Deimos came closer; she wished they would leave her alone.

  “It’s all right, Cali. Don’t be afraid. I have discovered a way to moderate our light. We didn’t regenerate so that we may stay close to you.” Blazar’s words were gentle and she was curious but remained quiet. “Let us search for what you need.”

  They lifted their hands and Cali soon grew wonderfully warm. She was wrapped in sunshine. Engulfed in beauty. Her tummy no longer growled with hunger, she felt full and at peace. The hard table softened into a cloud. Cali fell asleep with the strange sensation of both men not only surrounding her, but inside of her. The feeling wasn’t unpleasant.

  Chapter Three

  Cali wasn’t certain but she guessed she had been aboard the space vessel for over a week. During that time her two aliens, as she had begun to think of them, vanquished three separate Gar intruders on three different planets. When they left the ship, she was placed in a stronger holding cell with the force field controlled from within. It was Cali’s choice; there were certain planets she couldn’t explore. Most had noxious or poisonous gasses. Some, like Crone’s planet had only beasts for occupants.

  Before leaving the vessel, the aliens regenerated. By the time they returned from the hunt, they were able to approach Cali in human form; although, she noted a decided difference in the heat their bodies generated. For a number of hours after the hunt, Cali kept her distance until the males cooled off. It was Blazar’s idea and Cali agreed with him.

  Blazar was the thinker between the two aliens. He was thoughtful and kind; patiently, he explained a number of planets, calling them up on a console. The planets were fascinating; he opened up a whole new world to Cali. Blazar was brilliant. Deimos became more animated with Blazar’s information when he spoke of defeating the Gars and what forms the insatiable aliens had taken. Deimos was more hands on. He loved to touch her skin; he marveled over her small hands. When she spoke, he wanted to gaze into her eyes as though catching and keeping each word sacred.

  Their nude bodies had no meaning to either male except as vessels. Cali no longer felt uncomfortable around Blazar and Deimos. They were witty and charming. They swore they had only three more planets to visit and she would be home. Except, they looked less eager to return her as time went by, especially after the first time Cali hugged them upon their return. They had been gone a particularly long time, long enough their normally hot bodies after a hunt were only a little uncomfortable to touch. As they cooled down, their embraces were longer. Both men were not shy about seeking out her embraces when she explained a hug was offered as a show of affection. Deimos innocently referred to embraces as gifts.

  Each night, the alien males came to her and with their special abilities they filled her belly pleasantly and cocooned her to sleep in warmth. It was so clos
e to being loved Cali forgot she was basically a captive. Deimos seemed fascinated with the concept of mating. He explained their way of joining was different. There were no females or males, just entities. Their species needed to join but not for procreation, but for socialization and comfort. Procreation was carefully monitored. Their platonic joining was how they helped Cali feel safe and warm at the times she ‘regenerated,’ the word was Deimos’. Cali told him she slept. Blazar’s favorite place she learned early on was the console; Deimos loved talking to Cali when he had a spare moment.

  “Your joining with me is fascinating. So, you love with all of your being?” Cali asked Deimos. They sat side by side on the healing bed. There was no other furniture; after all, what would a being made of light need with chairs? It made sense to Cali.

  “Yes. We absorb each other, grow brighter, stronger.”

  “Have you and Blazar joined?”

  “Of course. We are partners, but not to procreate. I think your way of mating means something different from what we do.”

  “Your speech has improved,” Cali said and smiled.

  “This human body is fine. It took some getting used to. This cock has a mind of its own. When we join with you it grows. Why?”

  “I’m guessing what you do is intimate in a way.”

  “Does a male really put his cock inside a female?”

  “Yep.”

  “Does it feel as pleasant as when Blazar and I join with you?”

  “In a different way. Sex can be so simple and yet oh-so-complicated. There are many reasons why a human has sex. Sometimes it can be used to hurt.”

  Deimos looked appalled. “Why on earth would something do that?”

  “Some thing is right. But there are forms of sex some enjoy with minimal pain.”

  “Will you teach me your way to love?” Deimos looked so sincere, so sweet. It wasn’t like Cali hadn’t been thinking of it—all week.

  “All right,” she said, suddenly feeling shy.

  A huge grin split Deimos’ face. He sat back. His cock was standing at attention. “Climb on.”

  Cali just stared at him. Climb on? Like some rodeo rider? Sheesh, this might be harder than I thought.

  “There’s more to this. You don’t just say ‘climb on’ to a woman. You touch, you kiss, you, well you get intimate and discover each other.”

  “But I already discovered you, you’re sitting right there. Can’t you see me?”

  “Oh, brother.”

  “Here I am,” Blazar said coming into the room. “I heard you call to me, Deimos, what’s so important?”

  “Call to him?” Cali asked in confusion. “I didn’t hear anything.”

  “I developed a mind link between Deimos and me. I won’t take the chance of hurting your ears again,” Blazar said as if it were so simple a task.

  “Cali is going to teach us how to love, human style.”

  Blazar’s face split into a wide grin. “That’s truly wonderful news. I’m certain our people will be very interested in a human mating ritual.”

  “Um, excuse me?” Cali said, annoyed. “Making love is personal.”

  “So is the way Blazar and I join with you? We take you within ourselves. We join with your being. Besides Blazar, I have never joined with anyone but you.”

  “Yes, but you cocoon, you cuddle, you, well you will just have to experience the difference.” Cali looked at both of their eager faces. Poor bastards have no idea I’m about to rock their world.

  She wondered where to start then realized she had always been crazy for Deimos, not that she didn’t like Blazar, she did, but Deimos was so sweet. She gripped his hand and stood him up. Cali went down on her knees before him deciding to jump right in. She took his cock, rigid and at attention into her hand. He warmed within her palm. From his slight gasp she knew it wasn’t his doing, but a reaction. He was watching intently. Blazar crowded in closer.

  At first Cali just stroked Deimos, up and down as carefully as she could. Deimos went from wide-eyed to biting his lower lip. He groaned and heated further. The sensation wasn’t unpleasant and her breath quickened with anticipation. That wonderful warmth would soon be inside her.

  “What’s wrong, Deimos?” Blazar asked in concern. “Does it hurt? Inside, your emotions are moving too fast for me to concentrate.”

  Deimos either didn’t hear him or didn’t trust himself to answer. Cali felt a smile curl her lips before she moved closer and closed her mouth over the tip of Deimos’ cock. For a second, she thought he might pull away. His body went rigid but to his credit he stayed put. She rocked against him, licking, sucking, and savoring him. His heat grew, warming her mouth. A strong phallus water bottle was in her grasp, a thought so enticing she grew wet. Cali always loved the intense warmth of a soothing hot pack against a hurt, but she wasn’t injured, though she ached with want. To have that savory fire pushed between her thighs would be her undoing. Deimos gripped her hair when she pulled back, and Cali thought she might come too soon with pleasure.

  “Cali, am I in you or are you in me?” Deimos whispered.

  “Intriguing,” Blazar blurted out. “Is it my turn yet? Can we all join? Oh, no, you have only one talking area.”

  Cali pulled from Deimos who looked bewildered and then annoyed. She blinked and sucked in a needed breath. Before he could protest, Cali dragged him onto his knees in front of her. They were a perfect match in height. Cali spread her thighs and gripped Deimos’ ass firmly with one hand, he groaned again as she guided him forward with her other. There was the fire she wanted pressed against her skin, searing her flesh as desire went into overdrive. When the tip of his cock struck her hot juncture he seemed to understand exactly what to do as she wiggled and bumped against him. She felt him savoring her as he entered her, his gaze telling the story of unexplored passion. She was right, once the entire length of his hot cock buried within her, the ache was soothed, transformed. The wide-open wonder on his face flickered until he squeezed his eyes tight. Cali moaned and turned feeling Blazar’s hand in her hair.

  Panting, she gazed up at him as Deimos rocked within her. The empty hand that had guided Deimos’ warm treasure into her found Blazar’s cock, also warm and waiting. A single touch and she shivered as his fire grew against her waiting, wanting flesh. Closer he stepped as she encouraged with a gentle tug. Opening her mouth, Cali sucked Blazar’s cock past her lips. Ever so gently she let her teeth skim over him. The pulsing within her lower wet heat matched the demanding sucking of her tongue thrust for thrust. The grip in her hair tightened, and she moaned, her body was turning to jelly. Blazar groaned deep within his throat and muttered a soft, oh. Blazar grew harder as Deimos’ thrusts increased. Both males gasped and made grunting sounds. Deimos wrapped his arms around Cali and began to pump wildly.

  Each of Deimos’ muscles bulged to their extreme. Large hands gripped Cali’s back, pressing her into his solid chest. Engulfed by both males, Cali joined with them; they cocooned her with their special ability. Cali could see the bright yellow of Deimos’ eyes, his gaze now settled on her, reflecting off her cheek it was so intense. She was drawn inside them as they surrounded her. The rest of the world became surreal as all three loved as one. Though Blazar was standing and Deimos was kneeling, to Cali they were all pressed together equally. The echo of their breaths filled her ears. The ship was gone from beneath her knees. Heat as from a hot summer day roamed her skin.

  Cali was shaken from her blissful world when she heard a strangled moan. She pulled back enough to see there was no glow from Deimos; his face scrunched up in panic as he moved harder, deeper. Cali tried not to chuckle. This was definitely an experience he would remember. She held Blazar’s cock to keep it in her mouth as he, too, increased his pace. The warmth of Deimos’ seed filled her and Cali was amazed as she felt all of it warm her insides wickedly hotter than his flesh. Deimos howled, and gasping, released her, pulling free and thrusting her back but Blazar’s grip was too intense. Deimos slipped to his side.

&nb
sp; Cali was surprised when Blazar disengaged his cock from her mouth and dropped down before her. Taller, he was little harder to maneuver, but his huge hands lifted her hips and he thrust his cock into her hard. It was Cali’s turn to cry out which made Blazar grin. His strong hips collided with hers making thumping sounds. Deimos lay on his side watching. A more demanding lover she had never had. Blazar became a wicked light of motion, heating them both to hot tub proportions. She sensed his control not to burn as every inch of her flesh sizzled.

  Before long, Cali and Blazar were covered in sweat. “Blazar, Cali has turned you into a drinking fountain,” Deimos muttered.

  If Blazar cared he didn’t act the part. Cali could feel her body being crushed by powerful hands. Never before had she experienced such a gripping orgasm as the one that rocked her. She screamed and went limp in Blazar’s grasp. When he came, she had an overwhelming feeling of desire.

  Spent, all three languished on the ground in a heap. Cali’s head rested on Deimos’ tummy. His breath was finally beginning to settle. Blazar rubbed her hip. He rolled over and grinned at her.

  “You were right, our loving embraces kinda makes me wish we were people who had different sexes. It would be interesting to feel those emotions from a female’s perspective.”

  “You can do that?” Cali asked.

  “Yes,” Blazar said. “I can take your form.”

  Cali laughed. “Well, you two have fun. I need a drink.”

  Cali knew both sets of male eyes were on her as she left the room. She heard them bicker briefly.

  “You be the female,” Deimos said.

  “No, you be the female.”

  “It was your idea.”

  “Cali come back here.” She heard both men yell.

  ****

  Cali was beet red from her toes to her forehead. Another of Deimos and Blazar’s kind had boarded the ship. Only, this man-being was clothed. Cali thought she’d love him forever when he handed her a long piece of glittery fabric. She wrapped it around her immediately, the fine silk shimmered to her knees.

  “Cali, this is Altair. We sent word our mission is now complete and wished to return you home.” Blazar looked a bit uncomfortable. “Altair has asked we allow him to speak with you.”
