I could not fall asleep, so I went to the washroom and took a water shower. I stayed in there for a while, trying to wash Lukah off of me. Then I was surprised when the door opened and Silver walked in.
"Silver, what are you doing?"
"I heard Lukah. I heard that she is going to make sure I am sold to the commander. I am frightened. I do not want that experience with him to be my first. Will you be my first?" she said as she began to take off her dress.
I was shocked by what she was saying, but it did make sense to me. If I could not stop the commander from getting her, at least I could do her this one favor and make her first time a pleasant one. I turned off the water and stepped out of the shower, dripping wet. I picked her up in my arms, her slender, small, naked body. I carried her to her bed, as I did not want her to be in the bed where I had just lain with Lukah.
I laid her gently down on the bed and kissed her mouth. I knew that she was turned on because the projection sex dream she had was so intense, she was shouting my name. Now I wanted to please her. I wanted to make this the most pleasant coupling experience she would have—if she would even have another pleasant one again. It made my heart ache to think of that.
I kissed her soft mouth and then moved down her neck. I kissed over her pale shoulders and moved further down, taking her breasts in my mouth. She arched her back up as I did so and her nipples grew hard in my mouth. My wet skin slid across hers as I moved further down, kissing her belly.
I liked the soft, light spots that lingered there. It was unusual and beautiful. I moved further down until my head was between her delicate thighs. I kissed her center and then allowed my tongue to move down her slit. She moaned and grabbed at my hair. I licked her slowly, and then fast, and then slow again. I did this until she was shouting, “I’m going over the edge. It’s happening!” she said and I moved my mouth to drink her juices as she released.
When she had come to a calmer, relaxed state, I moved my body on top of hers. “Silver, are you sure you want this from me?” I asked her.
“Yes, please, Korin,” she said.
I moved my body between her thighs and placed the tip of my cock inside of her. She opened her thighs wide and I pushed inside of her slowly, just an inch, and stopped. I kissed her mouth greedily. Then I pushed in a little further and felt a tension against her. She groaned. Then the tension gave way and I moved deeper inside of her as she moaned.
She looked up at me and I kissed her and held her to me. Then I moved back and forth inside of her over and over again. Just when I was on the brink, I stopped. I wanted this to last a long time for her. We kissed for long periods of time before I would start to move again inside of her. I restrained myself from making the coupling rough as I wanted to position her in many ways. But I did not. I wanted to be able to kiss her and look at her delicate face.
“It feels good, Korin. It feels better than I ever thought,” she whispered.
“Good. I want it to feel good. It should feel good,” I said.
Then she began to breath heavier as she was building to release. “It’s happening again. It’s coming again,” she whispered as her body tensed and she let go. I moved faster inside of her as she did. Then when she was done, I moved slower, and then faster again. As I massaged her breast in my hand, I could no longer hold out. I tensed up and shouted, “I am in release! I am releasing!”
When I had released, I let my body rest on hers before I lay beside her and we fell asleep. In the morning before the dawn, I coupled with her again. I did not want to leave that bed and I did not want to know what the day would bring.
The next day I was summoned to Master Bresh. He was angry.
"My daughter told me what happened. She told me about the commander and the female."
"Is that all?" I asked wondering if she had told him everything.
"No. For some reason my daughter has taken a great disliking to the human female. I assume it is because you have coupled with her, but there is no law against coupling with the human female slaves. That is what they are good for, but my daughter is a very jealous female, and she does not want this particular human female to be at your disposal in such a way. Therefore, you must get rid of her. I have granted that the commander can purchase her from you for the price that I deem worthy. The purchase will happen in one week’s time. Do you have anything to add?"
"No, of course I agree to your orders, whatever they may be. But as you said, I have coupled with the human female and I find her to be of great value to me in that respect. Therefore, I would like something in return," I said.
"And that would be?" the master said.
"Make me general. Make me general here on Kaethon at the battle training grounds. That is my wish and return for sacrificing the human female as one of my assets," I said to him.
"It shall be done. Once the exchange for the human female slave has occurred, you shall be granted general of the training grounds."
I nodded in agreement with him and then he dismissed me. I had finally gotten what I had worked so hard for all my life. I was finally being made general. Yet, I was not happy. In fact, I felt sick. I should not worry about Silver, as this was her destiny when she first landed on the moon base in the Earth ship. This would be happening to her if she had never met me, or I her. Therefore, I should not think twice about it. I would let it happen. There was nothing that I could do. The master gave the top order and his orders were to be obeyed.
When I returned home, I could not bring myself to tell Silver. I would not tell her until the day or two before it was to happen. I did not want her last week with me to be lived in fear. There is no point in that; she should enjoy herself and be happy, not living in panic anxiety over the future.
"What happened?" Silver asked as I walked back into my home.
"Master Bresh mentioned nothing of you. Perhaps Lukah did not tell him out of embarrassment. I cannot say that she will not eventually tell him and try to have you sold to the commander, or someone else. However, for now it has not been a topic when speaking to the master," I said.
Her shoulders dropped in relief as she sat down. "I am glad. I am glad if only for now. At least I have now. Things have not turned out the way I thought they would when I left Merton Loy. I wanted nothing more than to see Earth for the first time. I had only seen it in photos in books and in holograph screens. Just to be surrounded by plants and water was my only wish, and Earth is so beautiful. Then I came here, and saw the beauty of this planet. It was not what I set out to do, but it is just as good as seeing Earth. I am glad for it, if only for now."
I felt guilt inside of me as I listened to her, and I tried to fight it. Why could I not go back to the cold way I treated her when I first met her? She had changed me. I hated her for that. Because it would be hard to watch her being sold to the commander, or anyone else. Yet I got what I wanted. I was going to become a general. It was exactly what I wanted to happen, and yet I did not want it to happen at all.
"Get dressed. I want to show you something," I said to her.
"You do? What?" she asked me.
"Just get dressed, but do not wear the muslin dress and sandals. Wear the boots and work clothes I brought you," I said to her. She nodded her head and disappeared to her room. When she came out, she was wearing fitted cloth around her legs that tucked into her boots. The top was fitted and long, and then I put a cloak and hood over her.
Moments later, we were standing in the middle of the Icannis fields. "This is beautiful. What is this? There's so much of it," she said as she ran her hands across the plants. She looked up at the sky and basked in the sun. She had a smile on her face, and I liked seeing that sense of wonder back inside of her. It was the least that I could give her after what I had done to her.
"This is what the Icannet juice is made from. It is called Icannis, and since you enjoy being outside so much, I thought you would enjoy this."
"Yes, I do!" she said with a big smile. But there was another reason that I brought he
r here, but I did not want to tell her just yet. I wanted her to enjoy the outdoors and the plants for as long as we could. I let her skip around and touch and smell the plants. She asked me so many questions about how they grew and how the Icannet was made from them. She was happy again but I finally had to tell her.
"Silver, I want you to listen carefully to me," I said to her as I pulled her close to me.
"Yes, Korin,"she said.
"You see that structure over there, the white one?" I said, pointing to a far off white structure at the end of the city.
"Yes, I see it," she said.
"I have had a report that no one else has seen except for me and one other warrior. We believe that the building is a living space for a rebel. This rebel is one that arranges transportation for those Kalazaron that wish to join them at the Blue Mountains."
"Why are you telling me this?" she asked.
"If you were to run away again, run there. Tell them that you want to join the rebel cause and serve as a human slave at the base. They will take you to the Blue Mountains. I do not know what will happen to you there as we have little knowledge of what goes on. However, you will be safer there than with the commander, I know that."
"How? How could I run away?" she asked.
"Just as you did before, when I caught you. Only this time I will not catch you; I will say that you ran away in the middle of the night without my knowledge. If it comes to that. If it comes to the point where the commander is going to gain possession of you, I want you to run there, do you understand?"
Her eyes grew wide and tears began to fall down her cheeks as she nodded her head yes. I knew it terrified her. It should. She would be alone on a strange planet.
"When you run away, run here to the fields. It would be easier for you to come to the field and then run all the way down toward that structure under the cover of the tall plants. Do not try to run through the city; you will be captured. Humans do not go unnoticed. Especially after you have been tagged; it will show whose property you are on your arm, and you will be swiftly returned to them. Use this field. Are you listening to me?" I asked her as I shook her shoulders. It was very important that she understood what I was saying.
"Yes, use the tall plants of the field as cover to make it to that structure, just as I used the tall grass to escape you when we were together in the wild," she said to me.
As soon as she said that, I longed for that day. I longed to be with her in the wild and have no one try to take us apart. I wiped the tears from her face and said, "Let us think of that no more. For now, enjoy this time outside. Take it all in," I said as I pressed my lips against hers and kissed her. I laid her down in the plants and coupled with her, perhaps for the last time.
Chapter 7
SILVER BROOKS
I was relieved when Korin returned from his meeting with the master as I thought that Lukah would be sending me to the commander as soon as possible. So when he returned that he had no news about me, I was so relieved. But I was soon to find out that Korin wanted to be rid of me. He took me to the growing fields of the Icannis plants and I was very happy. I loved being outside and in the green and blue spaces. The plants were tall and it reminded me of our time in the wild. I was having a fun experience when Korin scared me with a new plan.
"Silver, I want you to listen carefully to me," he said to me as he pulled me close to him and looked directly into my eyes. The blue of his eyes were always startling to me no matter how many times I saw them. I longed to run my fingers though his hair just as I had when he took my virginity the night before.
"Yes, Korin," I said, hoping that he would kiss me again.
"You see that structure over there, the white one?" he said pointing to a far off white structure down at the end of the field.
"Yes, I see it," I said as I looked in that direction, but I was not ready for what he had to say next.
"I have had a report that no one else has seen except for me and one other warrior. We believe that the building is a living space for a rebel. This rebel is one that arranges transportation for those Kalazaron that wish to join them at the Blue Mountains."
"Why are you telling me this?" I asked, already knowing the answer, and I did not want to hear it.
"If you were to run away again, run there. Tell them that you want to join the rebel cause and serve as a human slave at the base. They will take you to the Blue Mountains. I do not know what will happen to you there, as we have little knowledge of what goes on. However, you will be safer there than with the commander, I know that,” he said as he searched my eyes making sure that I was understanding what he was saying.
He wanted to be rid of me. He knew that the commander was coming for me and he wanted me to run away on my own, without him. It was not so long ago that I tried to be captured by the rebels myself in order to run away from him, the sergeant, and now the thought of running away alone brought extreme fear and sadness upon me.
"How? How could I run away?" I asked beginning to panic. I knew that I could not run away without him. I was not as strong as I was when we were out in the wild. Something had changed in me.
"Just as you did before, when I caught you. Only this time I will not catch you; I will say that you ran away in the middle of the night without my knowledge. If it comes to that. If it comes to the point where the commander is going to gain possession of you, I want you to run there, do you understand?"
My eyes grew wide and tears began to fall down my cheeks as I nodded my head yes. I understood more than he knew that I did. He was ready to be rid of me, but now he was attached enough to me to not want me to be with the commander. Still, he was not going to fight to keep me. He would rather that I ran away to be the rebels.
"When you run away, run here to the fields. It would be easier for you to come to the field and then run all the way down toward that structure under the cover of the tall plants. Do not try to run through the city; you will be captured. Humans do not go unnoticed. Especially after you have been tagged; it will show whose property you are on your arm, and you will be swiftly returned to them. Use this field. Are you listening to me?" he asked me as he shook my shoulders like a ragdoll.
"Yes, use the tall plants of the field as cover to make it to that structure, just as I used the tall grass to escape you when we were together in the wild," I said to him, hoping to make him think about that time together.
"Let us think of that no more. For now, enjoy this time outside. Take it all in," he said as he pressed his lips against mine and kissed me. I kissed him back fiercely. I did not want to leave him, but if he was fearful enough to bring me here, that meant our time together was limited and I did not want to waste it. He laid me down in the plants and undressed me. Then we made love, and I looked up at the wonderful blue sky and the plants towering over us as we did so.
When we returned to Korin’s home, we were in for a dark surprise. Commander Yun was waiting outside the door. Korin growled at him as he saw him.
“What are you doing here, Commander Yun?”
“I have come to collect what is now mine,” he sneered.
“The human female slave is mine until the arrangements have been made for transfer of ownership to you after the master has granted it,” Korin said as he stepped in front of me.
“And it has. In the last hour, Lukah approached her father to speed up the process and she contacted me. She seemed very pissed off, and I can see why,” he said as he noticed Korin being so possessive of me.
“I don’t believe it,” Korin said.
“Check your projection,” the commander said.
Korin took out a small tool and projected an image on the wall. There was a document with writing on it that I could not read, but by Korin’s reaction, it seemed to be true that the commander had bought me.
“Hand it over, Sergeant…or should I say General? The master told me how you traded the human female slave over in exchange for being made general, so congratulations on that.”
I gasped as I heard this remark. Was it true? Could Korin be so cold? I knew that he could. He was cold when I first met him only days before, so why would he change now? I was hurt and felt sick as I realized that I was being handed over to the commander so that Korin could rise in the ranks.
“She is mine,” the commander said as he lunged toward me.
Korin stepped between us and he pushed him hard against the wall, then he punched at his stomach as he shouted at me, “Run, Silver! Run!”
My eyes grew wide in panic as I realized that it was all happening right now, in this moment. The commander pushed Korin back and reached for me, grabbing my cloak. I screamed and Korin pulled him off of me.
“Run!” he shouted again as he loosened the commander’s grip on me and punched him once more. I ran away from the door as fast as I could and I could not believe that the runaway plan that Korin had told me only moments before was now really happening.
