Paz stepped forward on the rocky ledge. Its blunt face was at my thigh level. I caught it staring at the space between my legs.
“You’re too smart to run,” I said. “Or is it that you’re too stupid to run?”
Paz lifted and dropped its shoulders. “I have average intelligence, I guess? Like I said, I know you’d catch me instantly.”
“You are correct. You belong to me now.”
Paz’s eyes widened, and for a moment, a deeper color flashed across its face. Then it coughed and said, “Sure. You got it, Kur’tok.”
I grunted in approval. Now that I was satisfied Paz wouldn’t bolt, I could freely explore its strange body. My tentacles began at the shoulders, then snaked down Paz’s flat chest. The human shivered. Below the ribs was a soft, squishy mound of flesh that moved with my tentacles. Touching it made Paz inhale a series of quick breaths.
“Why are you making that sound?” I muttered.
“I’m giggling because my tummy’s ticklish. You can keep touching it, though.”
“Of course I can,” I barked. “You aremyprey. I can do whatever I want with you.”
Paz swallowed. The deep color dusted its cheeks. “Yeah, you sure can.”
I ignored the human’s incomprehensible behavior. Now the garment was in the way again. Instead of wasting time asking Paz to remove it, I shoved it down with my tentacles. Paz’s whole form was exposed.
Including a small fifth limb pointed right at me.
I sharply withdrew my tentacles with a hiss of displeasure. Paz hadn’t mentioned another limb. It could be a weapon. What if it shot acid, or poison, or quills? I could’ve been killed before I knew what hit me.
“What is that?” I roared. “Explain yourself!”
“Um... that’s my dick,” Paz explained.
I curled my lip, suddenly fearful of the dick. Was that like a Maeleon cock? I didn’t know, and that concerned me.
“Is it poisonous? Does it conceal a sharp weapon?” I demanded.
Paz glanced down at the erect limb. “Well, all my previous sex partners are still alive, so it’s not poisonous. And there’s definitely nothing sharp in there.”
Even though the comment about the previous partners inexplicably angered me, my feelers slowly relaxed. “It’s a sex organ?”
“Yup.”
“Why is it outside your body?”
Paz crossed its arms. “Listen, dude. I’m a human. That’s just the way we’re built. Cis men, like me, have dicks on the outside.”
“It is stuck there all the time?” I asked in disbelief.
“Unless you shove it back between my thighs and tape it there like a drag queen, pretty much.”
I barely understood the words coming out of Paz’s mouth. What was adude? What was adrag queen?
“Humans make no sense,” I grumbled. Still glaring at the dick, I asked, “Why is it standing upright like a serpentes about to strike?”
Paz huffed. “Because you turned me on by rubbing your tentacles all over my naked body?”
I was shocked. I’d aroused the human? My ownmeal?What a lascivious creature.
Yet I couldn’t deny the thrill of pleasure at hearing Paz’s words. It had been so long since I’d engaged in anything carnal...
A pulse of arousal shimmied down my spine. Regardless of whether I was going to eat Paz or not, there was something deeply enchanting about this weakling human that I was powerless to ignore.
