Criminal Core
Page 13
I didn’t want to hear about anybody else being with Ruby - in her old life or this one. “I’ve heard it helps when your partner really excites you,” I sighed, laying back against the wall. “I know it does for me. I’m glad I’m able to get you off, Ruby.”
She giggled. “I’m glad I’m able to get you off, Master. To think, my mouth is enough for you...”
My gaze traveled all the way up and down her naked body. “I definitely want more than just your mouth, Ruby. If that’s...you know, something you do, of course.” My knowledge of non-human races was more than a little lacking. For all I knew, what Ruby and I just did was Fae sex.
She smiled and shook her head. “Of course, Master. What sort of Fae servant would I be if I withheld my pussy from you?” She came forward, still on all fours, and scooted back onto her ass, spreading her legs. “Does this look like one you would enjoy, Master? I admit, I know about as much of your anatomy as you do of mine...”
A low growl left my throat at the sight of Ruby’s pussy. As it turned out, she was a natural redhead - the strip of hair above her clit was the same dark, crimson sheen as her hair. Her nether lips were swollen with need, dripping with juice that smelled like herbs and nectar and magic.
“Ruby,” I said thickly, “I don’t think a pussy could be more perfect for me...”
She climbed into my lap with a squeal, straddling me with her thighs. The smell of her sex filled the room, a heady aroma that made my head swim. I could feel the fairy dust in my bloodstream, pounding in my brain with every pump of my heartbeat. All the sharp edges in my vision blurred as I held Ruby. A warm core of bliss formed in my stomach and refused to leave. Everything I did felt amazing - just holding her in my arms, skin-to-skin, was so good I felt like crying.
Ruby sensed that I was riding her magic. “I love you so much, Master,” she whimpered, nibbling at my bottom lip. “It’s an honor and a privilege to give you my body.”
“Ruby,” I growled, lost on a tidal wave of euphoria. “I...”
She giggled and put a finger to my lips. “Don’t say anything. You don’t have to love me back, Master. Not yet. Maybe not ever. Just let me serve you.” She laughed at the drugged expression on my face. “You really like my fairy dust, don’t you?”
I nodded. “Yeah!”
“Hmm.” She stood halfway up, bracing herself with a hand on the wall. “Why don’t you try getting an even bigger dose, Master? Right from the source...”
A moment later, her juicy slit was pressed against my face. Ruby let out a whine of pleasure as her most sensitive regions ground against my nose and mouth, the hard nub of her clit swelling and throbbing. I slid my tongue deep into her core - and nearly came apart without the slightest stimulation to my cock.
“You taste amazing,” I growled against her cunt.
Ruby just let out a wordless cry and humped my face harder. She was already losing herself, her inner walls clenching and quivering against me. All I could do was let her ride me, stabbing her clit with my tongue and bathing in the sweet, magical juice dripping from her pussy.
By the time she finally came, nails gripping my shoulders as she rode my face through her orgasm, I had no idea if I was in the Black Oubliette or back on Earth. I didn’t care. The only thought in my mind was that I had to feel that perfect pussy wrapped around my dick. I wanted to fuck, to fuck primally hard and savagely fast until I’d used Ruby’s body to the fullest.
Fortunately for me, that was exactly what she wanted me to do to her.
Ruby slid down my body until her hot, dripping pussy was just over my dick. Her body still trembled with aftershocks. A thick cord of muscle stood out against her neck as the pleasure coursed through her, pulsing in time with her rapid heartbeat.
“I’m ready, Master,” Ruby moaned, her eyes filling with love and devotion as they met mine. “I want you inside me right now!”
I grabbed her hips with both hands and brought her down onto me. I groaned as I sank balls deep inside of her, her tightness sheathing my cock as it bottomed out inside of her. She was wet and tight and perfect. Even after everything I’d been through, all the new sexual experiences and out-of-this-world encounters I’d had, burying myself inside of Ruby was special.
Maybe it was the amazing fairy drug in my bloodstream. Or maybe it was that we really, really liked each other.
She arched her back as I upthrust, her head lolling on her shoulders as she shut her eyes tight. “Oh, Master, it’s so fucking big!” she gasped, her cheeks coloring. “Oh fuck I can’t take it!”
“Yeah, you’re so fucking tight,” I growled, sparks flying down my shaft as I ground against her walls. “God damn that feels amazing, Ruby. I love being inside of you!”
It wasn’t quite an I love you, but from the look on Ruby’s face, it might as well have been.
The wet sounds of skin-on-skin filled the room as she bounced up and down in my lap. She brought her hips down on me, hard, going balls-deep on every upthrust as I explored her honey-warm core. My hands gripped her shoulders, giving me leverage to go even deeper, then strayed down her back to those wispy, erogenous wings.
When I started to stroke those in time with my thrusts, Ruby unraveled.
“Master!” Her back arched like a bow as her cunt gripped me tight. Her thighs quivered, clamping down on me like a vice as her moans reached a fever pitch. “Master, I’m going to cum!”
So am I, I thought, bringing myself to the brink with several hard, driving thrusts. My cock jerked inside of her, swelling harder and bigger as my rhythm broke down completely. Fuck, here it comes...
Ruby cried out and went weightless in my arms. Literally weightless.
Her wings unfurled and flapped rapidly as she came, nearly lifting her off the ground. It was the strangest fucking sensation in the world, and if her inner walls hadn’t been gripping me tighter than a glove as she came, she might have actually ended up on the floor.
Instead, I let out a laugh and grabbed her shoulders, slamming her back down around my cock. That thrust was the final one that sent me over the edge. With both of us giggling and practically losing it from Ruby’s outburst, we came together in an incredible rush of intimacy and pleasure. By the time I was done, Ruby’s faerie pussy was full to the brim, her juices and mine coating my cock as I thrust oh-so-slowly into her core.
“I can’t believe that happened,” Ruby whispered, looking away and blushing. “Usually I have much better control of myself than that, Master...”
I laughed and stroked the bottom of her chin. “How would you know a thing like that?” I asked her, grinning.
Her face scrunched up in confusion. “I...I don’t know!” She sighed and pressed her face against my chest. “But I don’t care. I’m happy, Master. That’s all that matters.”
“Me too,” I said, letting Ruby’s weight press me back to a prone position. God, I was so exhausted. “That was wonderful, Ruby. You’re so awesome...”
She giggled and gave me a kiss. “Get some rest, Master,” she purred, nuzzling up against me in a way I found warm and comfortable. “I’m right here.”
I need to go back to my room, I thought, but suddenly it felt like my arms and legs were made of lead. Ruby’s room looked exactly like my quarters, anyway - the differences between the two blurred in my mind as my senses went dim. I let out a huge yawn and closed my eyes.
I hope Shay and Meiko don’t walk in on us tomorrow was my last thought I dropped off into the darkness, Ruby in my arms.
Thirteen: The Agreement
When I woke up the next morning, I was alone.
For a few long, languid moments, I thought I was back in my quarters. I rolled over in bed, wondering why the other side of my mattress was still faintly warm. What was the last thing I did last night? I’d had the meeting with the rest of the crew, and then...
A big dumb grin spread across my face. Oh yeah. Then Ruby and I had some fun.
There was a pleasant ache in my limbs as I got washed up and
dressed. I wasn’t sure where Ruby had gotten herself off to, but I wasn’t too worried about it - as long as she stayed on Alpha Spire, there wasn’t much trouble she could get into. Unless Shay discovered the two of us spent the night together and got pissed off...
I glanced up at the ceiling. Was that what had happened? A spike of worry shot through me. “Chirrup, where is Ruby right now?”
“Ruby is currently in the Alpha Spire’s galley!” the electronic voice cheerfully informed me. “She was joined a short while ago by Shay and Meiko!”
My fingers stilled at my zipper for a moment. “All three of them together?” I said calmly.
“Yes!”
Great, I thought, putting the finishing touches on my shipsuit. Hope I’m not walking into anything awkward...
A sudden rumble in my stomach reminded me that it didn’t really matter - I was hungry, so I was going. My android body didn’t need to eat nearly as much as the old human Noah, but I hadn’t chowed down on anything since I’d been awakened in my new body. I was long overdue.
Especially after working up an appetite with Ruby last night, I thought, whistling to myself as I made my way through the corridors of Alpha. I might need a second helping if she’s up for it...
As I got closer to the galley, I moaned with delight. Something smelled amazing.
The smell grew even stronger as I entered the galley. Ruby had her back to me as I walked in, her fingers doing a complicated dance with the controls of the food replicator. Shay and Meiko sat next to each other at the table, half-empty plates and mugs of coffee in front of them. From the looks on their faces and the way Ruby held herself, I could tell they’d been discussing something heatedly and had stopped right as I entered the room.
“Good morning!” I said, brushing off the awkwardness. “What smells so delicious? I’m drooling over here...”
As I sat down, Ruby came over with a plate balanced in her hand. There was a thick stack of waffles there, along with a small stick of butter and a carafe of syrup. My stomach grumbled loud enough for the entire room to hear as Ruby set them down in front of me.
“Oh man,” I groaned. “These look incredible, Ruby.”
The Fae tittered, watching with pride as I dug in. “Thank you, Master,” she said, hands on her hips. “I made more than enough for everybody! I hope you all like them!”
“We’ve never had them before,” Shay said, cocking an eyebrow as she watched me devour my food.
I paused. “You’ve never had waffles?”
“We have something similar,” Meiko chimed in, holding her mug of coffee aloft. “They don’t have all those little ridges in them to catch the butter and syrup, though - they’re flat.”
“Pancakes,” I said, nodding with my mouth nearly full. “Waffles are better.”
I tucked in greedily, not noticing the way the three women kept shooting each other glances until I’d already started on my second waffle. It had knocked the worst off of my hunger, so I started to slow down.
Alright, I thought, wiping my mouth with a napkin. On to business.
“So what’s going on?” I said, glancing around the table.
The three women looked at each other, then me. “What do you mean?” Meiko said coolly.
I gestured at her with my fork. “Don’t give me that. You three were arguing about something. And you stopped the second I walked in, so I’m guessing it was about me. What was it?”
Shay cleared her throat. “Ruby told us the two of you had a lot of fun last night.”
My face fell. So that was it. I mean, of course, Shay knew - she saw everything that happened on this station. Or Chirrup did, and reported to her - I still wasn’t quite sure which was the case. But I hadn’t expected to have to own up to it quite this fast.
I decided to meet her gaze. It wasn’t quite as piercing as I expected, but only just. “So? We’re both adults. We can have sex with each other as long as both of us want to!”
Meiko held up a hand. “We’re not angry that you had sex with Ruby-”
“Speak for yourself,” Shay snapped.
“Those of us who aren’t insane are not angry you had sex with Ruby,” Meiko said. “Honestly, the two of you spent one night together and today Ruby seems like an entirely different person. It’s good. She needed to acclimatize to her new situation rapidly, and she did it in your arms.”
I looked over at Ruby. She grinned at me and took my hand. “That’s one way of putting it, I guess. I needed the same thing when I first got here, after all.”
Before anyone else could say anything, the speaker in the galley ceiling crackled to life.
“I approve as well!” Chirrup cried, sounding even more maniacally cheerful than usual.
“Thanks, Chirrup,” I said with a little laugh.
Meiko gave me a long, even look. “What we were discussing is this, Noah: after your conquest with Ruby last night, all three of us at this table have something in common.”
“We’ve all had sex with you,” Shay said, glaring daggers at the other two girls.
“We need to figure out how to move forward,” Meiko purred.
I looked from one woman to the next, a confused look on my face. “Move forward...how?” I asked, bathing my next waffle in syrup.
The corner of Meiko’s mouth turned up in a smile. “Well,” she said, giving me a little wink, “I for one would like to keep having sex with you.”
I nearly choked on my waffle. “You would?” I asked. “Cause I kinda got the impression last time that it was just going to be a one-time thing...”
“If we’re all going to work together,” Meiko said, giving Shay a significant glance, “then we’re going to be spending a lot of time in close proximity with each other. Not to put too fine a point on it, but certain urges come in to play. It’s just part of life.”
“I’m hot, you’re hot,” I said with a chuckle. “Yeah, I think I get you.”
“The problem is,” Meiko continued, “that everyone would have to be on board with that.”
Ruby gave my hand another squeeze. When I looked over at her, her eyes were beaming with expectation.
“I don’t understand,” I said flatly. “On board with what?”
Shay rolled her eyes. “Sharing you.”
My eyebrows shot all the way to my hairline. My fork clattered to the plate, momentarily forgotten.
“You three,” I said, looking each girl full in the face, “have got some balls, I’ll tell you that.”
“There’s no reason to get upset,” Meiko assured me smoothly. “It makes sense. If the four of us are going to work together without problems, then we should deal with this before it becomes a problem.”
I looked at her in disbelief. “I’m not letting you three treat me like a...like a fucking timeshare,” I said, laughing. “We’re not setting up a schedule. I’ll have sex with who I want, when I want. As long as they want to as well,” I added, realizing how that sounded.
Shay shot Meiko an acid little grin. “I told you he wouldn’t go for this,” she crowed.
Meiko seemed unperturbed. “A rotation doesn’t have to be the only option - though it is the easiest one.” She glanced around the table, looking for support. “You spend one night with Shay, for example, then one with me. After that, Ruby, then it repeats-”
“Woah woah woah!” I cut her off, moving my hands like a referee. “Time out. I saw this TV show. It didn’t turn out very good for the guy in the long run, if I remember correctly.”
Ruby gave me a confused look. “What, Master?”
“I’m just saying. You three aren’t my wives or anything like that. This isn’t some polygamy situation. I like all three of you - I like you a lot. I just...I’m not really comfortable with this...”
Shay’s lips formed a tight little line. “I’m not comfortable with it, either,” she said firmly. “Noah should be free to choose which woman he wants to spend time with. Obviously the one who makes him the happiest will get to keep him
.”
Shay and Meiko glared at each other. Meanwhile, Ruby was staring at the two of them like she just wanted them to hug and forget about how angry they were.
Suddenly I realized exactly what sort of problems Meiko meant.
“Stop it!” I snapped, slamming a hand down on the table. Both women jumped, turning their focus to me wide-eyed. “I’m not going to have this crew down each others’ throats!”
Shay’s bottom lip twitched with barely-suppressed laughter. “Down our throats, you say?”
A flush rose to my cheeks. “Okay, poor choice of words. But you know what I mean.”
I sighed and scratched the back of my neck. What to do about this? The thought of being shared between three girls - it was hot, I had to admit. After all, I definitely enjoyed the company of all three of them. And it was clear that if I didn’t make my preferences known quickly, they were going to tear each other apart. Suddenly there was something hard and cold in the pit of my stomach.
“I just don’t want to feel like a dancing bear,” I muttered, moving a hand over my eyes. “Like I have to do fucking tricks...”
Instantly Ruby’s hand was at my shoulder. When I opened my eyes, she was staring at me sympathetically, her fingers tapping at my skin.
“You don’t have to do anything you don’t want, Master,” she said, pursing her lips. “I understand.”
I sighed and looked around the room. “Look, I just don’t...I don’t want some schedule,” I said, meeting each woman’s eyes in turn. “I feel like that would just suck all the fun out of this. I’m a man, not some sex robot you each get to take your turn with once every couple of days.”
Meiko gave me a long, searching look. “You’re right,” she finally conceded, looking a bit chastened. “We weren’t taking your feelings into account, Noah. I was thinking of each of us, and how to keep the peace between the three of us, but I didn’t even consider how you’d feel about the arrangement. I’m sorry.”
