“Not yet,” he whispered, barely audible over the sound of my pounding heart. “You’ll get what you want, don’t you worry, but not until I’m ready to give it to you.”
That drew a whimper from me, and I struggled helplessly in his hands. He chuckled and held me down with ease, biting one of my nipples, then the other, with a controlled ferocity that shook me to my core. I tried to talk, to ask, to beg, but I couldn’t form a coherent sentence.
Down and down he kissed, slowly rubbing his cock against my pussy, parting my lips to tease my clit with a thumb, then breaking contact as his mouth got closer. Ever closer.
I whimpered and then cried out as his tongue danced across my lower lips. Its strange, rough texture teased and tormented me in equal measure, and I bucked under him, trying to press up to his mouth, his hand, anything to get more stimulation.
He didn’t let me. Varok’s grip was too strong to fight, and my squirming only turned him on more. Just as the sensation wasabout to become unbearable, he relented and brought his mouth down on me, kissing and licking and sucking at my pussy. I arched again, howling in delight as his tongue found my clit and rasped across it, a sensation so intense it seemed like it should hurt. But it didn’t. Instead, it sent me into a bucking frenzy, my body twisting and arching enough that I might have injured myself if not for his firm restraint.
I have no idea how many times I climaxed. Time lost all meaning in the ecstasy that flooded my nervous system, but eventually, Varok relented and I came back to myself, panting and trembling.
“Oh,fuck,”I whispered, and he grinned down at me, face glistening. Letting go of my wrists, he stroked his way down my arms.
“You are delicious. I could do that all day.”
“Oh, no, you couldn’t,” I told him, breathless and aching and bold. “I need you. I need you inside me. Right now.”
I hadn’t thought his smile could get any wider, but now he showed me it could. And showed me more than that, thrusting his metal cock into me with raw and hungry energy that almost overwhelmed me.
I fought back, grabbing at him and pulling him close, wrapping my legs around him. Welcoming him into me, squeezing and shuddering as he groaned.
“You areamazing.”His words came out in a gasp as he slammed into me again. I tried to agree, but couldn’t spare the breath from panting whimpers of pleasure. Slowly, steadily, he increased the speed of his thrusts, each one a little deeper into me, each a little harder. My whimpers turned to cries of delight. His words turned into a drawn-out, ecstatic growl.
Overstimulated by his tongue, I shuddered with every thrust. My body wracked with bliss, my mind dissolving into incoherentecstasy, I came again and again on his thrusting cock. Each orgasm more powerful than the last, arriving faster and faster.
After an endless, timeless period, I felt him swell inside me. He was close, so close, and his joy, his need, mixed with my own. Together, we moved faster and faster, urgent need pushing us on until, with a cry, I tumbled into the most intense climax yet. Varok followed me over the edge with a triumphant roar that shook the room, cumming hard and deep inside me, and with that, we both collapsed into exhaustion.

VAROK
It was, I decided, the best disaster to befall me in my career. I lay with the human female curled up against me, the hard and cold metal of the dining table against my back a perfect contrast to the delightful soft warmth of her. What had I done to deserve such luck?
Luck, you call it?A grim voice in my mind gave me a much-needed reality check.Trapped in an abandoned bunker on a dying world. Limited food supply, limited heat, and a technologically superior foe hunting us? If not for her, you’d be clear of this planet and rich.
I didn’t argue. It was all true, but it paled into insignificance when I gazed at the human. Penny looked so calm and peaceful there, her head rising and falling with my breath.
“We are where we are,” I muttered to myself. “There’s no point in trying to change that or wasting time figuring out who to blame. Better to enjoy the time we have.”
And we tried. It helped that the vibro-showers still worked, so we could get clean. And it didn’t hurt my morale that we’d ruined Penny’s dress beyond repair. While she grumbled about that, I caught her smiles too.
It couldn’t last. Danger always lurked behind the joy we found. Our food supply was already running low, and we had no idea how long the power would last. And then what? When we ran out of supplies, would our newfound closeness keep us from each other’s throats?
The human protein bar was dense with nutrients, but with every meal I watched the foodmaker’s readings tick downward. It would last us a few more days. Then we’d need a new plan.
Penny’s news was no better. Every time she sent her drone up to scan the spaceport, she came back with stress plain to see in her tense muscles and too-bright smile. Nothing changed. The other guests hadn’t left yet, the Collectors apparently unwilling to compromise the spaceport’s security to let them return to their ships.
Two days later, we had a moment of excitement when the forcefield deactivated. It lasted until we saw the hovering fleet of robot guards replacing it. They looked like faceted gemstones, but they were the deadliest jewels I’d ever seen. According to Penny’s drone, they each carried enough power to disintegrate a city block.
Penny plotted the gem-droids’ movements on the hologram map she updated every time her drone went out. Her intense glare and tight lips told me she didn’t like what she saw.
“That is a clever fucking trap,” she said at last, pushing back from the table and scrunching her eyes shut. I pushed a cup of what she’d dubbed ‘coff-ish’ into her hand and she drank a gulp, grimacing. Clearly, that recipe required more work.
“They’ve put their gem-droids on semi-random paths,” she explained. “Look, they keep drifting apart just enough that it looks like there’s a way through. Close enough to risk it and hope you get lucky…but you never would.”
I followed the icons on her display, watching gaps open and close. My turn to grimace. “That would have caught me. It mightyet, if I get frustrated. Some of those gaps look wide enough to try—are yousurewe can’t get through?”
“I can’t say for certain, but assuming the gem-droids have decent sensors, they’d spot us. My guess is that when the gem-droids detect us inside the port, they’ll pull up the forcefield again and trap us.”
