  Tjai arrived with another Escorii carrying food which they laid out on the table. Acorus turned to Jo “Do you want to eat or throw this food?”

  Jo gave him a dirty look and stayed silent. Tchu put her head round the bedroom door and asked for help so Tjai and her companion went into the bedroom with her.

  Tchu came out of the bedroom and going to the outer door asked the guards for help. They went into the bedroom and in minutes came out with the smashed table piled with bloody sheets and broken crockery. Jo couldn’t look at them but Acorus was highly amused at her embarrassment.

  “Come and eat Jo, you must be hungry” Acorus called.

  Putting Jacki in her cot Jo went to join him, but as she picked up a plate, he ducked.

  “Enough. It’s not funny. Tchu will never forgive me”.

  “Yes she will, she loves you. If I can forgive you maiming me, she will too”.

  Jo picked at her food until Acorus got up and took her in his arms “I’m so sorry, Jo. This is my fault, I did the wrong thing. I should have fought a dozen of my soldiers until I couldn’t stand. My only excuse is that I wanted to find the lost girls. Please forgive me”.

  “I’m sorry too. I have too bad a temper and I hate backing down. I should say that I didn’t mean to hurt you, but at the time I’m afraid that I did” Jo said cuddling into him.

  “Well let’s admit that we both did the wrong thing and then forget about it. Now eat your supper”.

  The Escorii knocked and entered carrying clean bedding, including new pillows. Acorus’s blood had got onto everything. Once order had been regained in the bedroom, Tchu stiffly asked if they needed anything else. Jo shook her head; upset that Tchu was disgusted with her but Acorus said yes, would they take Jacki for the night as they were both tired. Tchu said that of course she would take the baby; she would sleep until morning anyhow. Picking up the cot Tchu and Tjai left taking the new Escorii with them.

  Jo sighed “Oh dear, I’m deep in Tchu’s bad books. I may never get out of them”.

  “Don’t worry. I’ll speak to her and explain that it was my fault” Acorus said cuddling her.

  “She’ll still think that I shouldn’t have thrown things”.

  “No, it’s not very ladylike, Lady Jo-Anna”.

  “And it’s not very Lord like to slap your lady’s bottom”.

  “Isn’t it? That’s not what I learned from watching Earth’s news. Lords are up to all kinds of things. Bottom smacking seems to be quite normal” Acorus laughed. Then he leaned down and swept her into his arms like a child. Carrying her into the bedroom he kissed her passionately, then dropped her onto the bed. Before he joined her he slipped his kaftan off, then he crawled up the bed pushing her kaftan up as he went. Kissing his way across her foot and up her leg he reached her sex. Placing his thumbs inside her he held her apart as his tongue teased her.

  Jo pulled her kaftan over her head and writhed under his touch. Acorus moved up her body reaching her breasts which he nipped and suckled at. As Jo groaned with desire Acorus moved further on and as he reached her mouth he arched his back and pulling her bottom to him pushed his swollen shaft deep inside her causing her to yelp and stiffen. Easing back he kissed her deeply and as she relaxed pushed into her again. Jo was panting from the strength of him but didn’t try to stop him. Instead she made herself relax and welcome him deeper inside her than he’d ever been.

  As Acorus felt her give herself to him completely his self control slipped away from him and he took her as a Sceriae, wildly, roughly and without restraint.

  Jo learned that night how girls had been injured or killed the first time a Sceriae male took them. She knew that if she had resisted or fought against him he would have hurt her. But knowing him and being highly aroused already by him, she gave herself over to his need and was carried along with him. They spent the whole night wrapped up in their passion and didn’t sleep until dawn was breaking. By which time they knew each others bodies as well as their own, and loved each other even more.

  Chapter 57

  When Jo woke it was late morning and Acorus was not with her. Struggling to sit up, her body felt as if it had been torn in two. The muscles at the top of her legs screamed with pain as she moved them. She felt bruised outside and inside. Her breasts were sore and swollen with milk and her bottom felt as if it was on fire.

  Tchu and Tjai came to her. Tjai was carrying Jacki, who reached out for her mother, taking her Jo put her to her breast wincing as she suckled eagerly “Thank god” she thought “Acorus treated me extremely gently when he first took me, or I might not have survived”.

  Tchu had laid the food, she had brought on the table and turning to Jo asked if she could take her anything.

  “Yes please Tchu, a pastry and some fruit please”.

  Tchu filled a plate and poured fruit juice into a tumbler and took them to Jo. Placing them on the table by the bed she looked at Jo “Are you alright?”

  “No, I’m ashamed. You must think I’m terrible. And I hurt all over” Jo moaned, tears filling her eyes.

  Tchu sat on the bed and put her hand on Jo’s arm “I don’t think you’re terrible. I think you are brave and very foolish. To fight with the General, and survive, shows how much he cares for you. But to anger him like that is dangerous and I’m not surprised that you hurt everywhere. He has treated you gently so far. I did try to warn you not to unleash the beast in all Sceriae males. Maybe you’ll be more careful in future!”

  As Jo nodded, she smiled secretly to herself as she thought how the beast had made her feel. Too late she tried to close her mind and Tchu tutted and stood up.

  “When you have eaten and showered, Tjai will give you one of her special massages”.

  Jo ate her breakfast as Jacki suckled, wondering where Acorus was. When they were both full, she handed Jacki to Tchu and went to have her shower. Lying on the massage table with Tjai working her magic, Jo felt the happiest she had felt since she was abducted. Acorus really loved her, Jacki was healthy and content, she had good friends and was making a difference, for the better, on Scerior.

  Dozing on the massage table Jo didn’t hear the bedroom door open, but she noticed a difference in the hands that were on her. They were getting more intimate than Tjai’s ever had. As the hands moved down her groin and between her legs, she opened her eyes to see Acorus grinning down at her.

  “I was wondering where you were”.

  “I’ve been to see Belain” he explained.

  “How is he? Better I hope”.

  “Yes, so much better. Julie’s pregnant again”.

  “I’m really pleased that he’s ok” Jo said sitting up and pushing his hands away.

  “Don’t you like the way I massage you? I thought I was rather good at it” he smirked.

  Jo got off the table and put on her trousers and tunic “You’re so big headed that I’m not going to answer that” she said, walking into the bedroom.

  As he followed her she asked if he had eaten and he said that he had with Belain and Julie. When she turned to look at him she gasped with horror. His left eye, his brow and his cheek were dark blue and purple. His brow where it had been stitched had scabbed over but looked very sore.

  “I’m so sorry, love, I didn’t realise that I’d hurt you so badly”.

  Shrugging Acorus said “I’m very proud of my wounds. To take on such a raging beast and survive with just this tiny wound. Never mind having shagged the beast all night, shows what a warrior I am”.

  Jo slapped him on his arm, then turned and cuddled into him. Surprised Acorus wrapped his arms round her and held her tight “Are you feeling alright this morning, Jo?”

  Suddenly feeling very shy Jo pressed her face into his chest and murmured “I’m good thanks to Tjai. I woke up feeling as if I had been beaten up”.

  Lifting her chin
so he could see her face he asked “Was it too much, for you? I’d never want to hurt you”.

  “No, a shock, but not too much. Although I’m glad that you restrained your beast until I knew you and trusted you not to injure me. I understand now how some girls were injured or killed if that happened the first time a Sceriae took them”.

  “That’s why we took care to educate our males, and now of course, they are having mating lessons off your call girls” then Acorus realised that he’d raised a tricky subject, so changed the conversation “I wondered if you would come and see the girls that I rescued? You may be able to help them. But I must warn you that they are still in a sorry state”.

  Glad that he’d changed the subject Jo said that she’d love to go with him. Leaving Jacki in the loving care of Tchu and Tjai, Jo and Acorus headed off to the house where all the girls were living. On the way there Acorus told Jo how he had rescued both groups. When he said that he’d had Urma and his sons executed, Jo looked at him and said “They’d treated them that badly then?”

  “Yes” then he paused, wondering if he should tell her all the terrible details.

  “I know you are trying to protect my feelings but if I don’t know everything, I won’t be able to help them”.

  So Acorus told her everything, including the horror of the Xenorii blood bank. By the time he’d finished Jo had once again buried her face in his chest. He sat there stroking her hair, until she was ready to speak.

  “Bezra must be tried and sentenced to death. She is the guiltiest of them all”.

  “Yes, I told the Wracki that she would die as Urma and his sons did”.

  “So you are putting a base on Zaa-wrack?”

  “That is the one good thing that has come out of this horror. I have had no excuse before, but they dare not say no, as their people had given me reason to go there. Their faces were so funny, I struggled not to laugh”.

  When they arrived at the house Jo was pleased to see that it stood in a beautiful garden and the house itself was large and attractive looking. Of course it was well guarded but the guards were kept out of sight of the girls. Acorus told her that he’d spoken to all four girls from Xenor, everyday, dressed in civilian clothes. Once again, pleased at his sensitivity Jo hugged his arm. As they walked up to the house the guards sprang to attention and saluted them. Acorus acknowledged them and Jo bowed her head as they went through the large carved doors. Two Escorii greeted them and showed them into the living room. Eight girls, clean and wearing, pretty kaftans, were sitting in the room. When Acorus walked in with Jo, five of them slid to the floor and cow towed, staying perfectly still with their foreheads between their arms, on the floor. The other three just tried to make themselves invisible. Jo looked at the scene in horror. Then going to the five on the floor she knelt down and spoke to them. Telling them that they were safe and had nothing to fear ever again. Jo helped each one to their feet and hugged them before going to another. Acorus had remained near the door leaving Jo to help the girls. Now he sat down in a chair and stayed quiet. Jo sat down on a sofa and asked the girls to sit, which they did immediately. Looking at an Escorii Jo ‘asked’ if the girls ever spoke. The reply was, only when no strangers were present. Jo translated that as, only when no aliens were present, so turning to Acorus she asked him to take the Escorii and leave them. He frowned; worried about her safety, but when she raised her eyebrows at him he nodded and stood up. As he led the Escorii from the room he turned and looked at her and she smiled at him.

  Once the door closed behind them Jo said “Now that the aliens have gone, please speak to me. My name is Jo, I’m from Leeds in the U. K, and I’m eighteen years old nearly nineteen. I was going to university when I was abducted and brought to Scerior”.

  Then she went on to tell them why girls were being brought to Scerior. How she had been helping to make things better for the kidnapped girls and finally about her relationship with Acorus, and how happy she was now. One of the girls who had been at the Wracki camp broke the silence.

  The first question asked was were they going to be beaten or raped. What was expected of them? How could they even trust Jo. She might be an alien too! Jo answered carefully, taking each question seriously. When it came to the alien question she simply stood up and took her clothes off. The girls were taken aback at that but the bravest stood up and touched Jo. Looking at her swollen breasts she asked if Jo had a baby. When Jo said yes, she asked if it was an alien.

  Jo told her that Jacki was half human, half Sceriae and absolutely beautiful. Putting her clothes back on Jo settled down to win the girls over. After two hours or so, Jo said that she was peckish and thirsty, so going to the door she ordered food and drink. Returning to the girls she asked if she could ask Acorus to come back. They were still nervous but the three who were on Xenor knew him as being kind so they said yes.

  When he came in Jo could see that the girls were still nervous, so she went to him and kissed him. He put his arm round her shoulders and hugged her to him. They sat on a sofa side by side and Jo continued chatting to the girls. Once the food came Acorus fetched his own and Jo’s and the girls stared in amazement. When they all had food and drink Jo then asked them what they wanted to do once they were fit again.

  This produced blank stares.

  Jo asked whether they wanted to go back to Earth, and they asked if that was possible. So Jo had to explain that as they were all unable to have children, they should have been returned to Earth. Then she explained about Bezra. Three started to cry at not being able to have children, but the other five seemed ok about it. Then one asked what would happen to them if they stayed on Scerior. Jo was at a loss and looked at Acorus who looked thoughtful, then said “If you wish to stay here, then you will be able to do whatever you want. We owe you a good life for what you have endured.

  We have teachers, doctors, artists, scientists, engineers, horticulturists, whatever you want to do will be made possible”.

  One of the girls laughed and said “How can you promise that? What will your rulers say?”

  “I am our ruler” Acorus said simply.

  The girls looked at him open mouthed.

  “So” Jo said “We will give you every chance to see Scerior and life here. You won’t have to decide in a hurry. You can change your mind as many times as you like. Just get healthy and talk to each other and your Escorii. I know they are aliens, but they are lovely, and they will look after you as if you are their children”.

  “And” said Acorus “No more cow towing. Stand up, have pride, don’t be afraid any more”.

  Saying their goodbyes Acorus and Jo left the room.

  Once in the hallway Jo asked the Escorii where the ninth girl was, and was told that she was still ill and traumatised. Jo asked to see her so they went to the back of the house, to the bedrooms. Opening a door the Escorii led the way into the room. The girl was on the bed and when they entered she started to gabble and scream, tearing at the wounds on her arms and legs, and then she started to bang her head against the wall. The Escorii went to her and tried to restrain her but she had the strength of madness, so Acorus had to help. Once he had her tight in his arms she just collapsed into herself and hung there like a rag doll. The Escorii shook her head sadly and told Jo that the girl was beyond help. She hadn’t been healthy in the first place, which was why she had been rejected. On Earth she would have been dead within ten years.

  Looking at her with tears in her eyes, Jo turned to Acorus and nodded her head sadly, turning away before he put his finger on the girls neck and killed her instantly. As Acorus joined her in the hallway he took her in his arms and said “Don’t cry, my love, it was a kindness, she felt nothing”.

  “I know. The whole business is just so awful; Bezra must suffer as these girls have”.

  “What? Give her to the Xenorii?”

  “No but she should be beaten and starved befo
re she dies”.

  “I’ll see what I can do” Acorus promised.

  Going back to their home they talked about how to introduce those girls to Scerior and Jo felt that she had, once again, helped.

  Content with how things had worked out, Jo settled down to making plans for even more changes on Scerior.

  Chapter 58

  Jo woke up cuddled in Acorus’s arms. They had spent the night making love. Even after ten years it was still new and exciting. Looking back to the time when Acorus had rescued the girls from the Wracki and Xenorii, Jo couldn’t believe that ten years had gone by. During those ten years Jo had, by choice, given birth to three more daughters.

  Scerior’s galaxy had been at peace for that whole time.

  Very few female Sceriae were left and many of the girls born in the beginning were mothers themselves. Within five to six years Jacki would be taking a mate, and Sceriae society had changed slightly, Jo thought for the better. Many humans or half humans were now in positions of importance.

  Happily Andea was still living but she led a quiet life, happy to relinquish the problems of ruling to Acorus. Pensus was still devoted to her although at her instigation had taken more human females and had many daughters by them. He was a kind and thoughtful mate and they all adored him. Belain had recovered from his injuries and was still Acorus’s right hand man. Julie was still having twins but well spaced out since Jo had brought contraception to Scerior. She worked happily keeping Acorus’s and Belain’s offices running well.

  Kylie was now in charge of the nursery which the girls now went to when they were two years old, and their mothers saw them everyday. Jo, Kylie and other girls had brought in this policy and it worked very well. Kylie was now a grandmother and doted on her grandchild.

  Of the girls Acorus had rescued, three had chosen to return to Earth. They had been returned completely healthy with proof of where they had been and enough gold and precious gems to make them wealthy. Of course the authorities had stopped them from talking about their experience but at least they hadn’t been locked up for being deranged.
