New World Alpha: Book Three (A Harem Fantasy)

by Nick Storming

  We sat there staring at one another as the sun rose and the plane angled down for its descent. Even as the women began to stir into wakefulness around us, I found myself unwilling to release that golden gaze. The depths of our unspoken communication only seemed to grow by the second, but eventually our extended moment was interrupted by Annie’s shout that she could see the lights of the Shenzhen compound.

  We all moved over to the side of the plane and gazed out at the massive circular complex. In the center of a sea of darkness only faintly lit by the morning light was a series of concentric rings lit with powerful lights. There were other lights on in buildings within the compound, but those floodlights illuminated wide boulevards of newly paved street.

  The entire compound had an orderly feel to it. Even from a distance, it was clear this place was much more organized and structured than any of the others we’d seen. Instead of dorm-like buildings, there was a forest of high-rise apartment buildings filling an inner ring, along with a massive arena built into the center of the circle.

  It was the outer rings that intrigued me, for one seemed to be all defense, while the others held factories, refineries, and all manner of industry. This was the first time I’d seen one of the Alpha compounds actually planning for the future.

  I knew our plane would be spotted from below, and there was too much risk being in the air, but there wasn’t an airport nearby. Circling out to sea, we put down on the southern tip of the Hong Kong islands. The morning sun illuminated the airport, and we found the area blessedly free of mutants.

  We hadn’t been on the ground twenty minutes before the sound of a helicopter approaching sent us scurrying for shelter within one of the many buildings surrounding the area.

  “You all have your orders,” I said, scanning the group as we shouldered our packs. “Don’t forget the flares, and make sure you stay out of the way.”

  “We got it CT.” Madelyn said with a reassuring smile as she gripped my hand. “Don’t worry about us. You just make sure you come back to us, okay?”

  “I will,” I said, looking around and meeting every pair of eyes for a long moment. “Dee?”

  The silver-haired young woman nodded and gave her sisters each a quick hug, then Ava. The three would be leading a three-pronged assault and carrying their special packages as deep into the compound as possible before signaling for rescue. At which point Donatella and I had better be finished with our task of finding and rescuing her family, or else we’d lose our chance to escape without thousands chasing after us.

  “Here,” Dee said, pulling off her pack and reaching within for something. “I’ve been carrying this for a while but… I think you should wear it.”

  I frowned at the white leather jacket and accepted it from her. Glynis and Annie gasped when they saw the coat, and I scented their recognition of it. The leather was supple and well-worn, but thick. In fact, there were several slashes and cuts in the dense material that didn’t go all the way through.

  “It was my grandfather’s,” Dee said, her cheeks heating and her yellow eyes glowing again with that faint inner light as she looked down at her feet. “He would want you to have it.”

  “Thank you,” I said, slipping the jacket on solemnly.

  It was far heavier than I’d first guessed, but fit well. Ava threw her arms around me, as did Madge and Shandra, their arms so tight my ribs creaked before they finally let me go. Madge wiped a tear from one eye and Shandra did as well, but Ava’s eyes shone with pride and confidence.

  “C.T. there are a few videos I think you should watch. I found them on the servers—” Annie cut off when I held up a hand and pulled her into a hug with Brianna.

  I could scent the girl’s overwhelming fear for me and Dee, but she kept trying to bring up the video she’d found. Finally, I kissed them both on the top of the head.

  “You keep my mother safe, Annie, and Brianna, you drive like the wind itself, okay?”

  “We will,” the brunette said, sniffing as she grinned with nervous excitement.

  Annie wanted to speak again, but I was already turning to go. The girl would delay us as much as possible, but there could be no more delays. The sound of the helicopter setting down near our plane was clear, and I offered them all one final nod before hooking a finger at Dee.

  SCENE SIX

  “The fools have let their petty greed and corrupt desires blind them to the world we could create.” The voice drifted out from a small dark room whose narrow opening let out into a dingy alleyway.

  “We owe it to Master Williams and the vision he once gave us of a perfect world to see this through,” the voice continued. Matthew’s smooth, deep voice was easy to make out, so was the heavy Russian accent of Sasha as he spoke up next.

  “There are a pair of pop stars I want to add to my pride before we proceed. Can it wait six months? They’re impossible to trap alone.”

  “Why isn’t your Breeding Pogrom set up yet?” Shen asked, “Mine has been up and running for a year now! Just have the boys kidnapped and brainwashed. Sorry, ‘reprogrammed.’ Adesh’s system is quite efficacious.”

  “Russian women are too hardy for reprogramming,” Sasha said, and from the clink of glass on glass and the sound of liquid, someone was refilling more than one glass.

  “I have a pale-haired pair of sisters from St. Petersburg,” Morty's voice spoke up, followed by a harsh gasp as if he’d sipped too much vodka or scotch. “They… cough… huh… they’re just as pliant as the rest.”

  “Sasha likes the smell of eager… earthy, and real.” The deep voice must have been that of Adonis. The change from what he’d sounded like as a boy was shocking. “We have no need of Adesh’s system in Arabia. We train our women from birth to accept men of strength.”

  “You mean your holy book teaches them about harems,” grumbled Adesh.

  “Prophets are worshipped by all, in their own way.” Adonis laughed, and the sound of glasses clinking could be heard before he took a deep drink and let out a pleased sigh.

  “Adesh, you will help our friend from Kiev out?” Matthew asked.

  “It will be done. But my Pogrom is in full swing and the local authorities grow suspicious. If we don’t proceed with the plan soon, I’ll need to make adjustments.”

  “No need for that, my friend,” Morty said in his cultured accent. “You just keep those delicious delights coming, and I can guarantee the plan will go off without a hitch. The Crown is in disarray, and their military’s dealing with the abdication. No one’s watching the arsenal and those feckless droogies Matthew found are switching out the warheads as we speak.”

  “And your promise to me, Matthew?” Shen asked, the young man’s tone suddenly harsh. “I will have what is mine.”

  “Emma will be at the compound with the rest,” Matthew said. “She’ll be delivered. You have my word… She isn’t past breeding age, but those eggs must be old and stale… what use could you have for her?”

  “Same thing he did with the cheerleaders from Penn State!” Fredrick chortled, but none of the others joined in and Shen spoke with resolve.

  “My people will know she was the bride of an emperor, a God amongst men. When they see her calling me emperor, see her doing my bidding without question… Then my rule will be absolute.”

  There was a long silence after that before someone swore, soft and sharp.

  “That’s bloody brilliant, Shen… Hey Matthew, give me one of those girls, too.”

  “Comrade, it is good plan, yes?”

  “It is,” Matthew said, his tone careful. “Then head back home and finish your preparations. We are all in agreement on what needs to be done and… Once the plan is in motion, the Treasures will be distributed.”

  Several glasses pushed across a table, followed by the sound of a steel cap screwing on a glass bottle. The dark opening in the short hallway lit with the buttery glow of a dim bulb. A rectangle of light fell across the litter-strewn alley floor and the brick wall of
the opposite building before a hulking shadow crossed it, followed by five others, all six silently slipping away in different directions.

  We raced down the street, careful to make as much noise and commotion as possible to draw off any would-be captors. Shouts erupted from the airfield when we were spotted soaring through the air, and I saw men scramble for the helicopter. Dee and I shared grins of triumph and took off together, losing ourselves in the skyscraper forest of Hong Kong.

  A second helicopter joined the first an hour later, and we were sure to give them enough of a glimpse to keep the pursuit close. We made our way north and east along the island until we hit a bridge heading over to the mainland. Dee hot-wired a sports car, and we raced across with her behind the wheel and me scanning the sky with my rifle.

  Our pursuers kept pace, but we were able to lose them on the mainland side. We’d managed to keep them off Ava and the rest while they headed north, and from the clear skies over there, it looked like they’d made it through.

  It took several hours to make our way to the border, Hong Kong being larger than it appeared on the map. The city was also a chaotic warren in places, making us rely on our senses to find our way through.

  Finally, we forded the small river between nation states and hopped the fence. I half expected soldiers to swarm us, but the massive city was deathly silent. The streets, which had housed millions of cars just a month before, now stood empty and deserted.

  I checked the time and signaled Dee over to where I stood in the shadow of a tall apartment building.

  “We need to kill five hours while Ava and the others get things in place. I was thinking‍‍‍—‍”

  Dee’s yellow eyes glowed with that odd, inner light as she stepped up to me. I hadn’t been ready for it, and so stood frozen in place as her lips met mine. Half a second was all it took for her lips to awaken my passion and love.

  “What were you thinking?” she asked with a mischievous twinkle in her eyes as she stepped back, drawing me after her.

  “I…”

  “That’s what I thought.” She flashed an impish smile and pushed open the front doors of the tall apartment building. “We’ve got five hours, Courtney… can you think of anything we might do to… kill time?”

  “You’re serious?” I asked. “Now?”

  “Don’t make me ask twice,” she said with an adorable blush, her fingers twisting in the sleeve of my jacket.

  We left a trail of clothing and weapons across the apartment floor after kicking in the door. I felt like a kid again as the butterflies swirled in my guts and my fingers trembled on Donatella’s ivory skin. The one reassurance I had was that the young Alpha woman’s scent was as nervous and awkward as I felt, but threading through it all was that intriguing new scent, growing stronger by the second as our hands fumbled free each other’s clothing.

  I’d dreamed of this moment so many times over the past couple weeks, but now that it was happening, everything seemed to be going too fast. When the heavy clink of our belts hit the floor, I paused beside the bare mattress and tilted Dee’s face up so I could look down into her glowing eyes.

  “You’re so gorgeous,” I breathed. “There aren’t words to describe how beautiful you are.”

  “You know that stuff doesn’t matter,” Dee whispered. The pale sunlight glinted off the silver stitching of her sports bra. “But what you’ve done with those women… What you’ve done for me… I will love you to the ends of the earth for that.”

  My head soared into the heavens above when our lips met. Something about the delicate touch heightened the emotions and sensations.

  The apartment was barren save some basic furniture and a bare-bones kitchen. The mattress was bare of sheets and narrower than a single, but it was more than enough as I lay Donatella down gently.

  My stepmom and the rest were right now putting their lives on the line, out there in the sprawl surrounding the Alpha compound, and I still worried about them, but the fear was faint. There was nothing we could do for now, and the heavenly creature drawing me down atop her pushed all other thoughts from my mind.

  “I’ve never…”

  “I know,” I breathed, grinning at the girl’s shy blush.

  Slipping an arm beneath the small of her back, I lifted her up and against me, my fingers feeling at the two dimples just above her perfect rear while my lips trailed fire down her chest. She growled from the back of her throat, and I grinned as I looked up to see Dee yank her sports bra over her head as she offered up her firm breasts to my hungry gaze.

  The firm mounds of flesh were capped in puffy, silvery areolae and firm little nipples. After staring for a long second, I met her shy gaze with a grin and planted a gentle kiss on first one, then the other.

  “Ohhh, C,” Donatella moaned, her voice drowned out by the sounds of helicopters circling above.

  Even the sounds of our enemies closing in couldn’t bring me out of that perfect moment. Her skin was baby soft and smooth, not that I had any reference, and she responded to the slightest touch of fingers or lips.

  She lifted her slender hips when I pulled down her panties, and the second I had a full whiff of her scent, the beast within surged forward and clawed for control. The woman awoke every primal instinct within me, and they all shouted that she was perfection.

  My will was stronger than instinct. But after a drawn-out moment where her eyes registered a nervous excitement as she witnessed the beast rising within me, awe replaced her nervousness as I mastered the beast. She parted her lips to speak, but the words came out as a sharp hiss of pleasure as I pressed my hungry mouth to her sex.

  I’d never tasted anything half as delicious and soul warming as the Alpha girl beneath me. I felt her strong fingers slip into my hair, her gasps and whimpers growing as she guided my tongue to her tiny clit and tilted back so she could meet my eyes.

  “What… what’s… thisssss oh God baby I’m going to… Ngh!”

  I knew what had so shocked her, because at first it had shocked me, but it only made sense that the fledgling bond forged between us on that ill-fated car ride would deepen now. A part of me smiled in chagrin. One second I was so proud of myself for sublimating my own instincts, only to find out that a deeper instinct had been guiding me the whole time.

  As Donatella shuddered beneath me and her thighs squeezed tight around my head, I tasted the center of her being and felt a part of her soul sink down into me.

  Steel-strong fingers hauled me up, and the girl’s strong legs pulled me between her thighs as her fingers fumbled at the waistband of my underwear. Neither of us could form coherent speech as nature took over.

  My hands gripped her body close, and she mine, as we became one.

  The feeling of being inside her was unlike anything I’d experienced. I couldn’t tell where I ended, and she began, and no matter how I moved, she was in perfect sync. Our bodies’ rhythms were in sync on a spiritual level, and my eyes flashed open to gaze down at where we were joined.

  In the dark room, I noticed something odd as I watched my cock diving into the girl’s tight sex. I could see into the dark shadows between our bodies by a dim blue light, and not the expanding of my pupils. Gentle fingers tilted my head up, and as I met Donatella’s glowing yellow eyes, we were surrounded by a purple glow.

  Chapter 29

  The hairs on my arms stood on end, and I could feel something powerful and primal growing between us with every thrust and undulation of flesh against flesh. Our bodies moved as one, and so too did our spirits. I felt my own instincts shift and change as we drew closer to one another, or perhaps to one being.

  The pleasure was so intense with every thrust that neither of us was prepared when our twin orgasms hit. The lights winked out, and the world grew still as the bridge between our souls was completed.

  Our foreheads touched, and the world awoke once more, brighter, more hopeful, and changed in some imperceptible way from what it had been mere minutes before. I opened my mouth to say I wasn�
�t sure, but feeling like something needed to be said.

  Donatella had her own ideas about what needed to be done and with a quiet growl and a shift of her hips, I was flipped onto my back on the narrow bed. Her strength and speed shocked me, and I realized she was employing my willpower trick as if she’d been doing it forever. She flashed a delighted smile at my surprise, and this time it was my turn to whimper in pleasure as her hips undulated.

  My still firm cock had never slipped from her tightness and she took advantage of that, riding me with an unearthly grace, back arched and firm round breasts on display as she bit her bottom lip and took her pleasure from me. I was witness to the young Alpha’s sexual awakening right there as she sought out every angle and erogenous zone.

  “You fill me… perfectly.” Those lambent yellow eyes flashed open and met mine with a wondrous grin growing on her lips.

  “You are perfection,” I breathed, unable to pull my eyes away from the lines of her face or the supple curves of her body.

  I could have stared at her forever, but neither of us could spend so long with our naked flesh parted. Pulling her against me, I let my hands wander down her strong back to cup and grip the firm globes of her ass. As she rode me with ever greater need, I thrust up into her pussy with powerful thrusts.

  Once again, the world froze as our pleasure crested, only this time we were both aware of my seed flooding her womb. I watched those gorgeous yellow eyes flash and then dim as the pupils swelled, and then all focus left me as her lips met mine.

  We lost ourselves in one another’s embrace for an hour of stolen bliss, and when we finally lay, sweaty and sated, our limbs interlocked, there were no words that needed to be said. We’d confessed everything in the act and felt both vulnerable and protected.
