What have we here then?
Steve placed his finger to his lips again and came over to her. “I’ve had him there since his morning hard-on Tanis. Keeping him bubbling, but not coming. He’s at the end of his tether now, excuse the pun. By the feel of his ball bag about to detonate. I’m glad you came because I want you to try something.” He placed his lips on Nigel’s cock to keep him turned on. Then turned back to face Tanis as Nigel moaned his pleasure. He said, “He’s all yours Tanis. Don’t worry he can’t hear us. I’ve plugged his ears. His situation can only heighten his sense of feeling. I’d like you to finish Nigel for me. He likes his foreskin worked over its head with soft lips. I want to see if he notices it’s a woman sucking him off and not me. Suck him to his finish if you like. This must remain our little secret Tanis. I know you fancied Nigel.”
“I still do Steve.” Tanis approached Nigel and in silence placed her mouth over his cock’s shiny head. She began to work Nigel’s foreskin and shaft with hot, hungry lips. While Steve squeezed his balls with his hand. When her thin venom tube entered Nigel’s bubbling seminal sacs. He exploded into her mouth with his powerful pent-up release. Nigel had a lot to give, and she took it all. Finished, Tanis stepped back to allow Steve more access. ‘Holy Shit! That was delicious.’
With one hand on Nigel’s flagging cock. Steve removed all Nigel’s physical restraints and his blindfold. Smacking his lips as he did so, he said. “Tell me what you felt when you came Nigel.”
Nigel noticed Tanis and smiled. “Hello Tanis, I didn’t know we had a spectator.”
Tanis smiling at his blush, said, “Hello Nigel, I hope you didn’t mind me watching.”
“No of course not. You’ve seen it all before remember.”
Steve impatient said. “Well, what did you feel Nigel.”
“I don’t know what you did to me, Steve. Even so, it felt fantastic. It has more feeling than intercourse and beats an ordinary hand-job. It’s much more explosive. You don’t have to use a condom either. I want more of it. You could’ve kept me going for hours if you hadn’t sucked me off at the end. I felt something wriggling in my ball-bag, which brought me on to coming?”
“Too much of a good thing might spoil it, Nigel?”
“Never. Not with you at my helm Steve.”
“Well Tanis, what do you think of our little experiment?”
“Awesome Steve. I’m glad to see you boys are still sticking together.” She smiled. “It goes to show what imagination without the aid of sight, sound and hearing can do. In fact, it’s fucking incredible.” She changed the subject. “I’ve come to talk to you about Japan Steve. Diana and I have bought our tickets and wondered if you’ll be on the same flight. We’re on the midnight flight tonight.”
“My flights for Wednesday night Tanis. Nigel might not be able to come with us, so we’re making up for lost time now. I feel a little shy of you being here. We were right in the middle of our experimental wrestling match. Nigel wanted to see how long he could last before he came. If you like, you can book me the room next to yours with a connecting door?”
“This is turning me on, Steve. I’d better go and leave you two, to it.”
“It’s my turn now Tanis,” Nigel said. “I can’t wait to have Steve where he had me. I’d like you to watch as I start him off.”
Steve’s cock lay straight and hard against his muscular stomach. As Nigel tied, gagged, blindfolded, and ear-plugged him. In the same position, he had occupied. He began to work Steve’s tight foreskin on and off its head, careful not to excite him too much.
Tanis found her hand moving towards her velvet wishing it was Diana she had here. Nigel noticed and turned towards her. His dark eyes dilated in arousal, he motioned her forward and stepped back.
With the memory of Steve’s cock spurting into Nigel’s mouth on the night of the foursome. Tanis bent over and closed her fingers around Steve’s thick shaft. She moved her mouth over its huge throbbing plumb-purple head. Then began to suck at Steve’s foreskin as she had sucked at Nigel’s. When she felt Steve’s juices start to flow she took him deeper into her throat.
Steve moaned in ecstasy when he felt Tanis’s feeding tube slip into his simmering ball-bag. He exploded in instant response. Tanis swallowed, then moved back with a smile. Managing to rescue a wayward pearl drop of cum from the corner of her mouth. Before Nigel moved in to remove Steve’s gag, blindfold, and earplugs.
“Christ Steve, you came too quick then…Why?”
“I felt something wriggling in my ball bag also Nigel. I don’t know what you did. I couldn’t help it. Whatever you did, I want more of it.”
Nigel glanced at Tanis and laughed. He said shaking his head. “Well, he can stay as he is until he’s ready to come again, Tanis. I can’t promise him a repeat though, can I?”
Steve sighed and smiled. “I asked for that, didn’t I Tanis?”
“Yes, Steve. Even so, it fulfilled my secret desire to suck you both off. Thank you for being so considerate.”
Her panties soaked, Tanis said her goodbyes and left the boys to it. Back at Hatton, frustrated. She paid a quick visit to a surprised and still recovering Elizabeth. Before joining Diana in Zana.
Diana was lying on the bed adjusting a double dildo. “I’ve been waiting for you, Tanis. Since I sat in Zana’s pilot seat, my sex drive’s gone through the roof.”
“I’m sorry Diana, but when I walked in on Steve and Nigel, they were at it. It excited me so much I had to get one into Elizabeth when I returned. I thought you might still be asleep, or I would have come straight in to you.”
“I understand Tanis. You must still be wet from Elizabeth, so I’ll continue where she left off. Sit astride me and open up…”
“Ohh My God Dianaaaa!”
“Well, you asked for it, Tanis. You deserve it for keeping me waiting.”
****
At midnight, with Diana satisfied and Elizabeth exhausted and sound asleep in the house. Tanis asked Zana to set the coordinates for Tokyo. She checked her view screen for intruders and said. “Zana, take us out of here and set a course for space. Afterwards, the main sports complex in Tokyo Japan.”
The Starship circled over the house once to find her bearings. Then shot into the heavens like a shooting star. In the next instant, they were looking down on the planet over Japan. Tanis asked Zana to make her approach without her beacons. Tanis didn’t want to alert Darius to her presence. She needed to find him first. She couldn’t begin to guess what he looked like. Darius would have his beacons off too, thinking himself the last of his species. Not realising a Queen Mantis was near.
Zana descended towards an isolated bamboo thicket. On the outskirts of the capital close to a railway station. There she buried herself deep under the shallow roots of a large bamboo forest. No need for hurry. The championships would not start until Saturday. The rooms booked, and Zana hidden, Tanis relaxed with Diana.
****
On the following Thursday, Steve and Nigel joined them. “Nigel managed to book his leave Tanis, so I brought him with me.”
“Fantastic Steve. All we need do now is enjoy ourselves.”

CHAPTER 33
Darius and Murmasaki
**
Over the next few days, Diana and Steve fought their way into the quarterfinals. Seated in a ringside seat with Nigel. Tanis watched the kata events while Steve and Diana were in the gym training for their next fights. She turned to Nigel and said. “Well there’s only the semi-finals and finals now Nigel, and they’re both still in with a chance.”
When she caught her breath, Nigel looked at her with concern. “Is anything wrong Tanis, you look a little pale?”
“Noooo...” Tanis had found Darius. “I was watching the Kata, and the contestant down there caught my eye. He looks as if he knows what he’s doing. It’s beautiful, look.”
Tanis could not take her eyes off the tall, well-built young warrior. Who was performing a sword kata with perfect precision
and grace in front of her? The arena had fallen silent as everyone watched him in awe, his every movement faultless. He was close to her when he finished his dance. Perfection, the only word to describe his performance. To thunderous applause, he bowed to the judges, then to the crowd. As he turned to go, he glanced up and caught Tanis’s eye. Her heartbeat quickened, and his eyes widened. It was Darius without a doubt.
Darius bowed to her then spoke in deep archaic English. “We’ve met before Madam. I’d like to know the where and the when if you please?”
Tanis answered in the language of Mantis. “Millennia ago Darius, four of us survived our home world’s destruction. I’m called Tanis. When I heard of your existence, I came to find you and mate with you.”
His excitement plain, Darius reverted to their common language. “You know my name! I’ve heard tales of a Tanis, who did many mighty deeds in the past. It, was you?”
“Yes. I’m here only because a mutual acquaintance told me of you. I thought myself alone in this world. His name you know as Tanaka Yamoto. He is no longer with us. I had to kill him in a duel.”
“You must indeed be a mighty hand with the sword Tanis, for his skill was exceptional. There’s a demonstration kata here on the Monday after the finals. Would you do me the honour of sharing it with me? I’d like to show our prey the true beauty of synchronised movement. It will take the two of us to do the dance. Tell me, have you heard of the others…and what of our Queen?” His excitement showed in his eyes.
“I have not sensed their beacons, Darius. They must be in another quadrant, or dead. It will please me to dance with you. It will be our mating dance. When we’ve mated, we’ll summon them here, if they exist. Then make this world our own. I have a host and a Starship ready for our daughter, who’ll live in England. You, Darius, must find a strong warrior host before you mate with me. Here, you have many to choose from.”
“I have one in mind Tanis. He’s a man called Steve. His sexuality is compatible with mine. He suspects nothing so his body will be easy to assimilate.” Darius thought for a moment. “To have an issue, you must first be a Queen Tanis. You know a common Mantis cannot conceive.”
“I am a Queen Darius, which makes my beacon more powerful than yours.”
His eyes lit up. “How so Tanis? There can be only one.”
“Fate has decreed it, Darius. When you mate with me, you will have your proof.”
Darius’s obvious excitement was an understatement. “I…I must go now, Tanis. We can meet later?”
“Your chosen host is the one I had in mind, Darius. He’s my friend and the lover of this man who sits next to me. Please do him no harm until we’ve spoken.” She gave Darius her hotel and room number. “You’ll find Steve has the room next to mine. I’ll see you soon.”
“It will be as you say, Tanis. I’m pleased to have found you. This is a good host. Even so, the survival of our species must come first.”
“At least his mind will survive in you.” She sensed Darius had already eaten. She guessed his most recent boy or girlfriend had paid the price for his hunger. He would have needed the added sustenance to compete.
****
Once more in their room, she turned to Diana. “We’ll stay in tonight Diana. I’ve met with Darius and want to be near to Steve and Nigel. Steve is safe from Darius because Darius has chosen him to be his next host. Nigel is another matter and could be in danger as prey. Although, I’ve told Darius he’s Steve’s lover.”
“We must tell Steve, Tanis!”
“Leave it to me, Diana.”
****
The night wore on. After Tanis had finished making love to Diana for the second time, she heard a sound. She took Diana into her arms and placed her into a venom-induced dream until morning. Hearing the door to Steve’s room open, Tanis rose in silence and put her ear against the door. She could overhear three voices whispering. After a brief silence, she heard heavy breathing. Which quickened into gasps of intense feeling. As someone released their sexual tension deep into another’s body.
If Darius were going to harm Nigel, he’d wait until Steve was asleep or better still. He would place Steve into a venom-induced coma before taking Nigel as prey. She’d done the same with Susan and Sarah. Which meant Darius had his Starship handy and hidden quite near to the hotel.
Tanis decided to act. The risk was great. Nigel was vulnerable. Afterwards, I’ll find a willing prey to recoup my energy loss. There must be someone suitable for my attention nearby. I must take the risk. I can’t have Steve or Nigel come to harm.
Tanis laid Freyja’s body beside Diana’s. Then passed through the connecting door to stand behind Darius as herself. He was fucking Steve spoon fashion. With one arm around his chest playing with a nipple while his other hand worked Steve’s erect cock. He sensed someone behind him. As Steve came, he injected venom into his shoulder muscle. He turned in surprise and anger. When he saw Tanis watching him. His eyes softened.
Darius stood up and faced her, his erect cock beating hard against his lower stomach, he said. “You take a great risk, Tanis. You must return to your host body now. My chosen host lies here before you. When I have him safe in stasis after the tournament, I’ll take you to my Starship and mate with you in this body.”
“Where is Steve’s lover Nigel, Darius?”
“Nigel’s in the next room dreaming a battle I fought against the Shogun of the North over three centuries ago. Steve likes him so I will take him as my lover when I’m in Steve’s body. My current lover, alas is no more.”
“I guessed as much. We’ll have to talk about it later Darius. To kill our prey with wholesale abandon is wrong. We must distinguish between them and make certain choices now.”
“Who are you to say who is to be my prey, Tanis?” He said in sudden anger.
“Remember Darius, you are mating with your Queen. If our species is to survive, we must adapt. We are the only two known survivors of our species in this quadrant. You, I have chosen to be my mate and the father of my first girl child. There is no other male in this world. You can’t refuse me for your mating instinct, and my attraction is too strong. Do as we planned with Steve and all will be well. You must hold killing the innocent until I have spoken more with you. I must return to my host now or suffer the consequences. Come with me to my room, and we will talk further when I’m safely in my host. The one I love sleeps there beside her.”
“You must indeed be old to have fallen for your prey, Tanis. I’ll do as you say. I can’t refuse you anything now as the pheromones of a Queen are too powerful to resist.” Darius followed Tanis into her room and waited until she had returned to her host. “I thought I was the only one to survive the Super Nova. When we left Mantis, I travelled for over two millennia until I found this world. I was down to my last two hosts when I arrived.”
“I was down to my last host Darius. I kept the best and the strongest until last. I have been on this planet for two millennia and came from another world before this. Delphi has gone the way of Mantis. I came here in Roman times in the body of a warrior woman General from the planet Delphi. In her host body, I became a mighty gladiator in Rome. Then in my next life a Viking Chieftain, before I had to change hosts again.”
“You were the Tanis of Rome and the Viking Tanis! I heard the legends of your feats. You did well Tanis. I dared not hope of another Mantis survivor and a female too. If I had tried harder, I could have found you. But I was young, inexperienced, and not yet ready to mate. Although, my first two host bodies were exceptional and came from Mantis. Besides you were not a Queen then. Without your Queen beacon, I could not have found you.”
“I was one of the old ones on Mantis, Darius. I have lived two more lives since the Viking life. This, my most recent life, I’m to be the first Queen of a new race of Mantis. I’m ready for my next stage of evolution Darius.” She pointed to the sleeping Diana. “We love each other. She too is a strong warrior woman. After I’ve mated with you in her body and taken your present host as pre
y, I’ll lay my eggs. One for you in Steve’s body and one for my daughter in an Earth woman’s host body called Jean, already in stasis. The host I have chosen to receive our Mantis child is Steve. You’ll have Steve your new host programmed to receive your egg from me when I am in the host body of Diana. In time. When I’m ready to become a mother again, I will return to this world and mate with you. I trust you to look after our daughter and steward our new world until then Darius.”
“Your wish is my command, Tanis. What if the other Queen has survived?”
“Mate with her too Darius. Even so, remember I am the stronger Queen, and both Queens must share this small world, or our species will die. If the others are dead, you will be the only surviving male so take care. Our ultimate survival depends on it. We’ll be the first. This world is rich in prey. We’ll farm it like Mantis, and our prey will never suspect we are among them. We will rule from within the shadows. Taking only those humans who deserve our attention.”
“You speak the truth, Tanis. We the Mantis now have a future.”
“Go back to Steve now my Darius. Tomorrow I’ll meet with you in the arena. On the last day, we will kata together. You with the sword of Japan and I with the swords of Rome. We’ll give our prey a show they’ll never forget. The mating dance of the Mantis.”
Darius took her by the shoulders. “Tanis, I’m pleased to see you, and I give you this oath. I’ll be the father of our children, and it will be my honour to serve you and our people if they have survived. I look forward to seeing our first daughter, for she’ll be ours. Until tomorrow.” He kissed her. “Tonight, I’ll fill only Steve with my host’s seed. Nigel I’ll leave to awaken beside Steve after I’ve gone. I will keep Nigel as my lover, for I feel for him too. Good hunting tonight Tanis.”
“I’ll take only the one who deserves it, Darius.” She kissed him. “We have been well met my Darius.”
