Ok her time in the tank left her with a beautiful face but she isn't used to the lips, my shoulder was covered in drool. She opened her eyes and wiped her face apologizing so pulled her in for a kiss and she melted into me. We kept this up for a few minutes before coming up for air. "This is new and I like it" she giggled. "I like it to baby" and kissed her again.

We finally got up and went to the kits. At the door she looked at me "I need to do something nice for Jaden and the girls, they helped me with the design. Jaden suggested the lips" she giggled. "How is life without the whiskers?" she smiled "they are always in the way that's why I went with a human nose". I leaned down and licked the tip of her nose "still works" she blushed.

The door opened and I got a chorus of "hi papa" from adults and kids. "What are your plans today?" Kim jumped in "we are going to the beach with your family". I smiled "let the kits get out some of that energy". Gar started to laugh "it was their idea" I laughed at that.

Lisa and I went for a walk ending on the bridge with her in my lap in the captain's chair. "Are your claws the same?" She produced them and they shone in the light. She got a confused look on her face. I did a scan "did you decide this" I she shook her head. The scan showed me that they were the same as the kits. "I guess the nanobots did that upgrade on all of you". She nodded and looked at them.

"The nanobots will continue to work on you, just be aware of that". She smiled "I know, they said they would talk to me before they do anything drastic".

A appeared and asked for a moment of my time, I looked at Lisa "they need me in my brain office for a min ok". She smiled and nodded and I closed my eyes. In my office they were all there waiting for me. I looked at A "what cha got for me".

"We'll sir after the scavengers we're at the decompressed ship, they got it going BTW. There when a little pod showed up. It shows minimal power and it seems to be looking for something. It is using bots to do the work. I think we can assist sir". I looked at the others and they were nodding "let's do it"

I opened my eyes and looked at Lisa "our day just got interesting, we may have another rescue. Vicky contact the family and put their trip on hold for a bit, I have to break orbit for a little while". She nodded, looked away then started giggling "they said they would be ok and what is he doing now, then laughter".

"Thanks for the vote of confidence guys" I laughed and Lisa got up and went to one of the stations to do some scanning.

The view flashed and the little ship came into view. I was roundish with a small hatch, it looked like it was hobbled together with found pieces. I could see displays on the outside that were dead but clear, possibly a window.

"Lisa, what can you tell me?". She looked at the display and hit a few buttons "I'm picking up 2 somethings, they aren't life forms they come up as energy signatures". I looked at Vickey "anything to add" she shrugged "I can see them moving around like life forms, possibly artificial".

"Is that a good thing or a bad thing?" Lisa asked and we all looked at one another.

"Have you detected and communication from them?"

"There is data coming from the bigger one to the little bot they are using but that's it".

"Try hailing them". Vickey nodded and the instant she did the little bot returned to the ship. "Make sure you tell them we are here to help".

"I did" she retorted

About 20 seconds later we got a one word answer "Energy".

"Vicky we are going to need a portable power unit and an EV suit for me".

"NOPE, NOT GONNA HAPPEN". I look over and see Lisa glaring at me. I looked back to Vicky "I guess a bot will do". Lisa nodded her head.

I went into VR and took over the bot. The power unit was the size of a briefcase so I grabbed it and stepped out of the airlock, this bot had little thrusters that took me to the ship. I realized at this point there was no atmosphere in the little ship. I opened the door and floated in. It was one room and there were 2 glowing balls in the corner. I walked forward and put down the power generator and opened it and stepped back.

The larger of the 2 came to the power unit and it changed color as soon as it touched the terminals. The second one kind of hid in the background until the first one shot a spark into the air. Almost instantly it shot over and joined its partner. I watched the generator change color as they drained it.

While they fed I decided to look around. Everything looked foreign to me but Vicky said she recognized a few parts. It looked like consoles from a dozen ships. For the next 15 minutes they fed, getting brighter all the time. They finally stopped and floated to me and I could felt the large one access my bot for almost 2 min. It was like it was searching the bots files but going no further through the connection. "This is not your true form".

"No, I pilot this robot remotely".

"May we go with you" asked the little one and it looked like the big one shooshed it. "If you need transportation I can offer it". They changed color a few times, "acceptable" I heard in my head.

I had my ship grab the little ship and escorted the beings to a meeting room. They floated in and I approached them and was enveloped in a flash buy the larger of the 2 "this is your true form" I nodded "yes it is". It floated to Lisa and enveloped her for a split second. Then floated back to me "she was made for you yes". Lisa answered "I chose to be this way to be perfect for my mate". It flashed a few times "she is desirable to you".

"Yes very" back to Lisa "you are his primary mate does he require a second?" I saw Lisa look at me and smile "yes he does, but how..." she was cut off. "May I use you as a template". Lisa got a weird look on her face then smiled "yes"

There was a blue flash and the ball grew, it enveloped Lisa again then retreated to a bench along the wall. Over about 5 min it slowly took the form of a body then kit then Lisa.

I just blinked and the form looked at us, it was Lisa with a different face. "Cold" she said, almost shivering, Lisa ran to a replicator and got a blanket for her. I still just blinked as the smaller one came to me and flashed blue. I put my hand out and was enveloped for a second.

It was an odd sensation, imagine reaching into water and pulling your hand out dry. The ball floated to the other and settled on the floor. It turned into a girl of about 14 and she was human. Lisa was right there with another blanket. I watched as they smiled at one another and touched hands. I didn't know what to think at this point.

"Where did you come from?"

"We were part of a deep space mission from another galaxy. We were attacked by beings after our technology so me and my offspring hid amongst the garbage. When they left we hobbled together that ship and have been living off of scraps for a long time now. My offspring has not interacted with other species aside from hiding". That's when I realized she was speaking English and my bots weren't translating.

The young girl opened her eyes and looked panicked for a second then she saw me and relaxed. She stood a tiny bit unsteady and walked to me still draped in her blanket. She sat in my lap and curled up so I covered her and kept her warm while she recovered. Mom looked at me with an odd look on her face. I looked at her and said, "I have this effect on people" I shrugged. She went with Lisa to get dressed and left me with her little one in my lap

They were talking when they returned in broken English but they had the nanobot disks. The older of the 2 took it and did it for her offspring. We waited a few min for them to take effect "can you understand me now" Lisa asked and she smiled. "Yes I do thank you for rescuing us and also taking us into your home". Lisa smiled at me and I got nervous "come with me" Lisa stood and took her hand and went to the next room. I just sat there and gently rocked the little one while they talked, after about 15 min the door opened.

"I don't know but all the females have them".

"They are awkward and I'm not sure about them".

That's when I looked and saw them holding their breasts and bust out laughing. I woke up my sleeping passenger so she looked up at me and smiled then layed back down. I put my hand on her back and gently rocked. The girls finished their conversation and came to me, Lisa smiled. "That just comes natural to you doesn't it". I smiled "she doesn't bite''.

She laughed and kissed me then looked at her new companion "you chose well". They sat on either side of me and Lisa started "we were talking and Cora explained a few things to me. She was made to be a mate and she was to the captain of the other ship. She scanned both of us and wanted to be a second mate and I agreed. I felt your empty feeling you felt when we were separated and this way that will never happen again". Cora continued "my offspring is a different story, She chose to be your daughter". That threw me for a loop "what is her name".

If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. Please report it.

"She chose Carla" I looked down at her and smiled. Lisa spoke back up "it seems in her culture modeling yourself after the head wife is considered an honor".

I just blinked and took a deep breath "I'm guessing my family just grew". Lisa looked at me "yup". I looked down at Carla and she looked up at me and spoke for the first time. "I guess that makes you my dad".

"I guess so little one". She smiled a huge smile and that's when I realized she looked like Jaden. She moved up and wrapped her arms around my neck. "I don't fully understand these feelings yet but this feels good". That's when the blanket fell and she was naked. By the time I was done fumbling with the blanket Lisa returned with a wrap for her.

"Vickey could you come here please". She appeared and introduced herself. "Could you scan Carla and tell me why she looks like Jaden". She looked away for a sec then giggled "well she mostly is". I looked at her "what does that mean". She giggled again, she loves to poke fun. "Jaden is about 64% you, Carla is 100% you. She took your DNA profile and built a body for herself. According to my scans she is your daughter or at least a clone of you".

I just blinked at the last statement then laughed. They looked at me "I have no say in this do I". Lisa came to me "no baby you don't. I have taken Cora as a second mate and Carla is a bonus. I know you will love them and protect them like you do me". She kissed me and stepped back, once again I just blinked. "How did this just happen?" I chuckled. "This is what happens to great men"

Cora said and approached me. She kneeled and put her forehead on my feet "thank you for taking me"

"Stand up please". She stood and stepped back and lowered her head. "First of all don't ever do that again, that is not who I am and I don't like it. Second, don't bow your head, it's unbecoming" she raised her head and smiled. "I'm not sure how but I'm in for the long haul so I will adjust". Carla looked up at me "I sensed something in you that's why I chose to be your daughter. When you offered your hand openly I knew you were special". I looked down at her and brushed her hair behind her ear "I promise to keep you safe".

"I knew you would, I could sense it". She hugged me tighter.

I looked at Lisa "what do I tell Jaden?" Lisa giggled "let me tell your daughter". Carla perked up "I have a sister?" Lisa took this one "yes and she has 3 little girls 2 about your age". Carla looked more and more excited the more she heard.

"I have one question: how do you speak English?".

"When we change we scan the mechanical part of the brain so we can walk and talk. We don't scan thoughts or memories, it's more like instructions to run the new body. I scanned both of you and your language came up as dominant. My former mate was the same species so there was no need to change'' she lowered her head again "I cannot change back I hope this does not displease you".

I smiled at her "you are modeled on the most beautiful woman in the world to me so of course I find you beautiful just the way you are" that produced a smile from her.

"Well let's go meet the others" I stood with Carla in my arms and went to Cora. I leaned down and kissed her. She pulled back, smiled and touched her lips. Lisa giggled "I'm new to them too, aren't they great". That got a smile and a nod. We left and went to the kit home.

The second the door opened the male was on high alert. He came over to meet the NEW that has him stressed. I picked him up and he inspected Carla, smelling her. He would sniff her then sniff me then get a weird look on his face. He did the same to Lisa and Cora then went to the females to give his ok. He talked to his sisters about the fact that they smell the same. I laughed as they came over to do their inspection.

Carla got down and they took right to her. Within minutes I heard them laughing with one another running around, that made me smile. Now to see if Kim and Gar want another daughter. We went over and they listened in shock to the story.

"So I have a new daughter, and a new daughter" Kim laughed and Gar joined in. "This isn't the weirdest thing this week, Come here girl". She went to Cora and she gave her a hug and Gar spoke up "welcome to our weird family" he hugged her as well.

We sat and the girls sat on either side of me like bookends. I suppose I may as well get used to that. Kim and Gar were getting to know Cora realizing it was like talking to their daughter. She had the same mannerisms and speech patterns, just a different pitch.

The kits came over one by one and got a hug and Carla joined them. She whispered in my ear "thank you" then she was off.

Lisa looked at Cora "wait till you meet his daughter and granddaughters, they are sooo cute. Carla can see what she will look like in a few years" she giggled. I looked at her "I hope she takes that news well". Lisa smiled "I will be talking to her tonight and I will break the news gently". I laughed "I don't know how to even start that conversation" they all laughed at my stress.

"Carla seems to be just fitting into place here". Cora turned to me "I would never have thought this is where I would end up but so far I love it. She probably has the same feelings". Carla heard her name and came to us "I'm happy because I chose my father well" she said with a cheeky smile and I realized at that moment that I'm screwed, I looked into her hazel eyes and saw my own. "I'm so screwed" I muttered. The girls heard me and started to laugh and hugged me.

My brother showed up and the instant he saw me he stopped raised his eyebrows. "Oh this should be good" as he sat and got up to speed. "So you're telling me you go to space twice, both resulting in a wife, you need to send droids". Everyone laughed "thanks brother" I said, shaking my head. "Kim informed me how the multi wife thing works and I'm ok with it. Shelly not so much but she says to each their own".

"We'll come on, let's go to the beach" Shaun said. I looked at Cora "do you want to experience a beach on the ocean". She smiled and nodded so off we went. We all piled into the RV and I let Shaun fly, he has been taking lessons. He found a beach and we came in for a landing. The kits were off as soon as the door opened and Cora and Carla just stood there in the sun.

Carla looked at me "our last form didn't let us enjoy things like this". I smiled "well remember you burn over time in this form". I set up a beach umbrella and got kisses for my efforts.

I layed back with my wives on either side of me watching the kids run around. We ate and had fun until my comm went off. It was Becky trying to get ahold of me, I collected kisses and went to the RV. I booted up the VR and she was in her home. "There are a lot of people trying to get ahold of you". She opened her laptop and sure enough there were a lot of messages for me. Everything from save my wife to you invaded our airspace, that one was flagged urgent.

"I'm sorry but something came up and I hope you like the story". With that I gave her the abridged version of the last 24 hours. "Well I see you weren't just ignoring me" she laughed. "Is there anything that sticks out to you in all that mess". She nodded "a Miami cancer clinic reached out and I thought it might deserve a second look". I looked at her "I think that's a fantastic idea. You talk to Sandy and I will talk to B about the ships. Thank you for bringing this to my attention" she nodded "aye aye captain". I cringed as she disappeared, They love to rub it in.

"B do you have a moment" he appeared. "Could you modify a 25 bed medship to fit in amongst a hospital. Say have it on stilts so it could go over a parking lot".

"Does it still need to power the hospital?" I shook my head "no we are going to a function hospital this time, Becky has the location". He smiled and nodded "not a problem sir we can put in a lift to compensate for the height". That made me smile. "Thank you B" with that I shutdown the VR. There was Lisa with a coffee and a kiss. "You know I like this kissing thing"

"me to baby". I looked to see Cora and Carla watching me work. When Lisa was done Cora came in for a kiss, Carla gave me a hug. Lisa spoke "get used to this girls he works all the time but he makes time for us don't you baby" Another kiss.

We made our way back to the sand and I went to take a dip, the water was warm and refreshing. I looked and saw Carla at the edge of the water so I went to her.

"Is it safe?". I nodded "I promise it is and you only go as far as you want". She nodded and we walked till it hit her waist then she was in my arms.

"It's so weird" I held her and giggled and walked to shore. "You don't have to if you don't want to". She smiled and hugged me "I saw you and it looked fun. I've never seen this much water in liquid form, well pictures anyway". We walked to the towels and got dried off. I layed between Cora and Lisa "we have a mission tomorrow if you want to help" I said to everyone. Shaun looked at me "that's your end brother, I'm good here". I blew him a raspberry as he laughed.

The kits came up for a hug and I guess my batteries were low because I needed every one. We watched the sunset looking around the beach for trash we might have dropped. Shaun came to me "can't you just scan for anything". I looked at him, realizing he was right. I started laughing "yes I can, I just forgot sometimes. Now stop laughing and get on board". He walked away shaking his head and laughing at me.

Getting back to the ship there was a new medship under construction. It looked like an office block on 4 legs. "Perfect it looks like it will blend in nicely, how many beds" I said allowed and B appeared. "30 beds and 2 portables". I looked at the others "I will catch up with you at home, I'm going to take a peek". They all nodded and went their way as I took the lift. It was a little compact but there was plenty of room. I sent Sandy a message with the heads up for tomorrow and she had already talked to Becky and B.

I went to my quarters and saw Carla passed out in one of the bedrooms. Lisa and Cora were in our bedroom discussing their girly parts and I laughed. "The blind leading the blind". That got me some odd looks as I layed between them "this is one of the best parts" Lisa said as she cuddled into my side and Cora did the same. They both started to purr and my chest vibrated.
