“We are underway back to Sanctuary.” Mirana announced from the command chair.

“And Ali?” Kayden asked, moving through the door to the bridge.

“She’s safely back on the Broken Shackle, along with her…sister? Friend? Contained in a data cube.”

Kayden shook his head in disbelief. “I’m…not sure what to call her, to be honest. But I’m glad we didn’t have to destroy her.”

“And now you have one of the most powerful ships in the galaxy on your side.” Mirana said, patting the command chair.

“You mean you have one of the most powerful ships in the galaxy.” Kayden corrected her. “This ship is for you.”

“You can’t just give me a ship!” She protested.

“I just did.” Kayden laughed. “I can’t manage this ship and the Broken Shackle all at once. You’d be the perfect captain for this ship – you already understand what it can do, you can staff your own crew, and I know you’re going to use it right.”

“I can’t accept this.” She said, shaking her head.

“What’s your hesitation?”

“I just… I could never repay a gift like this.” She replied finally. “In Vrul culture, a ship is everything. It’s your home, your family, where you feel safest. To give someone a ship is just…unheard of. And to give someone a ship like this, well…” She trailed off as she tried to find the words. “And after all you’ve done for me! For my entire species! There is nothing – nothing – I could ever do to repay you, and I just-”

“Mirana, stop.” Kayden said, retracting his helmet and pinching the bridge between his nose. “Stop worrying about repaying me. I care about you, so I’m doing this for you and that’s the end of the discussion.”

She paused for a few moments before removing her own helmet, exposing her soft-looking red lips and short black hair. Kayden watched her breathe the recycled air of the cabin for a moment before locking eyes with him and beginning to unbuckle her armour.

“There may not be a way for me to repay you…but there is something I want to do with you.”

“Are you sure?” Kayden asked hesitantly. “I mean… I want it too, but with the Xenocompatibility protocol and everything… once you do this, we’re committed.”

“I’m sure.” She replied, confidence in her voice as she stood and began moving closer to him. “Is it so hard to believe that when a dashing commander rescues a young woman, lets her join his crew, then goes off to save the galaxy she might just develop some sort of romantic interest in him? That she knows that if she doesn’t seize this moment she’ll spend the rest of her life wondering? Measuring up other potential partners, only to find that they fall short of the standard you set?”

She drew dangerously close to him. Her eyes locked on his as she ran a tentative hand up one arm. Her lips parted slightly, and when Kayden reached out to brush a stray strand of black hair behind one ear she drew in a breath sharply, shuddering from the intimacy of the physical contact.

“I’ve been dreaming about that kiss we shared.” She admitted. “And I’d like to share another.”

That was all it took.

Kayden’s lips crashed into hers urgently, his one hand on the back of her neck as the other wrapped around her waist. She groaned into the kiss, pulling herself closer as she did. Any traces of hesitation from either of them were gone, replaced by an incessant need for one another.

As they kissed she urgently pulled at the clasps in his armour, practically tearing them off in an effort to get him naked faster. With a thought he sent his drones across the room before helping her, his lips never leaving hers. In moments all he had on was the skintight bodysuit he wore that provided an extra layer of protection during firefights.

“Your turn.” He growled, breaking the kiss for a moment.

She stepped backwards and offered him a coquettish smile. Suddenly, the armour around her disappeared into a swarm of nanobots that swirled in circles around them. His jaw hung open as he realized she was only wearing her armour and that it was entirely made of nanobots, meaning she was left without a stitch of clothing on.

He took a moment to admire her in all her naked glory. Her deep red skin seemed to glisten slightly in the dim light of the bridge, and as she moved closer to him he realized she was warm to the touch. She had a perfect hourglass figure with pert breasts – not as large as Dawn’s or Anna’s, but still more than a handful – and her hips rounded outwards like rolling hills. He slowly ran his hand up her side, cupping one breast before squeezing her darker red nipple and causing her to groan.

“I didn’t know everything you were wearing was nanobots.” He whispered as she unzipped the front of his bodysuit.

“I could explain it…” She started. “But now really isn’t the time.”

“Agreed.”

“Plus, I’m just getting started.”

That’s when Kayden tore his eyes away from the mouthwatering beauty in front of him and noticed that her own swarm of nanobots was quickly solidifying into coherent shapes. What started as pairs of legs quickly had butts, torsos, breasts, and arms attached to them. Finally, each robot was given a head, but to his relief he saw that none of them were carrying weapons.

“Ali helped me create a new design.” She whispered as she tugged the arm of his bodysuit off. “Do you like them?”

He pulled his other arm out before freeing his torso and casting his eyes up and down the decidedly feminine robots bodies. “I do… but what did you have in mind?”

“I knew I wanted you alone in our first time together, and I also know you like it with more than one partner.” She said as the robots stepped closer and began to peel off the remainder of his bodysuit. “I thought this was a happy medium.”

“Mirana, I don’t-”

“Shh.” She said, pressing a finger to his lips. “Let me take care of you.”

With that, he felt her warm body press against his as several sets of cool robotic hands began to gently caress both of them. Deciding to give in to the moment Kayden relaxed, kissing Mirana deeply as he began to explore her body. He quickly realized that she was so touch-starved from being in her suit all the time that she groaned from the simplest of skin-on-skin touches regardless of where they happened on her body – an affront he took as his personal mission to rectify.

Gradually their hands grew bolder, with Mirana’s snaking down to wrap around his cock and begin pumping. For his part he placed one hand on her breast and began tweaking a nipple, while the other hand gently rubbed her clit in slow circles. She moaned into their kiss as the robots around them became more involved – one starting to fondle his balls while another flicked its fingers gently across her free nipple.

“Kayden.” She groaned, breaking their kiss. “Kayden, that’s so good.”

He chose not to respond with words, instead beginning to trail kisses across her cheek and down her neck. She was writhing when he reached her collarbone, and by the time he reached her nipple she was fully leaning backwards, letting two robots cradle her and hold her up. The way she moaned as he raked his teeth across her nipple before sucking it into his mouth made him think that she may have orgasmed just from that simple motion.

When he began to flick his tongue across her nipple she shuddered with pleasure, the toned muscles in her back constricting and tightening beneath him. He brushed away one of the robots hands before switching nipples, enjoying the way she writhed and bucked her hips towards him, desperate for any sort of stimulation. When he brought his prosthetic hand to her clit though she grabbed him by the arm and shook her head.

“No. Kayden, I could have any of these robots pleasure me like that. I want you. I want to feel your warmth on my skin, on my lips, and inside of me.”

“Of course.” Kayden said before grinning. “You know, my tongue is pretty warm.”

“Oh really?” She asked, arching one eyebrow. “Care to show me how warm?”

Suddenly the robots around them lifted Mirana to shoulder-height, bringing her already-wet pussy in line with Kayden’s face. They then spread her legs enough that he could comfortably fit between them before placing her thighs on his shoulders, allowing him to take some of the weight. As a true gentleman he was unwilling to turn down an invitation like that, so he stuck out his tongue and ran it slowly along her slit, causing her to grab his head with both hands and shriek with pleasure wordlessly as she came.

Love this novel? Read it on Royal Road to ensure the author gets credit.

“That was…fast.” He grinned as he pulled away slightly.

“Again.” She demanded, panting. “Do that again.”

Determined to make her cum again, Kayden started lapping away at her pussy once more. He used every trick he could think of – running his tongue along her folds, flicking it gently across her clit, sucking her clit into his mouth, running the flat of his tongue against her hole, and much more. Thankfully having so many women in his life taught him a few tricks about eating pussy, and he quickly had her squirming, shrieking, and cumming all over his face.

Even though he was the one servicing her, she never forgot about him. As he licked her with wild abandon two of the robots moved around him. One reached around his hips and began to stroke his hard cock, while the other knelt between his legs and gently played with his balls. It was only when he started to feel the cum bubble up within him that he pulled away, pushing the robots as he did.

Mirana looked up at him for a moment with a fire in her eyes before the robots soundlessly lowered her to waist-height. Her eyes flicked downwards to his hard cock before looking back at him and biting her lip. He leaned forward, placing one hand on either hip before teasing her entrance with the head of his cock.

“Do it.” She said finally. “Make me your woman.”

At her words he pushed, sliding the head of his cock inside her. She groaned in pleasure as she bit down on her lip, her hands gripping the robots holding her up on either side. Her pussy was a snug fit, gripping him tightly as he gradually pushed into her centimeter by agonizing centimeter. When he leaned over and took her nipple into his mouth she rocked her hips up to meet him, forcing the rest of his shaft into her pussy – followed by a long, low groan of pleasure.

“So deep.” She managed to croak out.

“Does it hurt?” He asked, taking her nipple out of his mouth.

“No.” She replied quickly. “Just…so full. And so warm.” She paused for a moment before looking him in the eye. “I never knew it could feel like this.”

“It gets better.” Kayden said with a grin.

Slowly, he started to work his shaft in and out of her pussy. Every movement seemed to elicit another moan from her, with her reaching a slightly higher note every time he languorously pushed back in her. His hands gripped her hips as he began to thrust slowly and gently, allowing her to adjust to him.

For her part, Mirana seemed to be beyond delirious from the feeling of skin-on-skin mixed with deep pleasure. Goosebumps appeared all across her warm skin, and she began to buck her hips to meet every thrust. Her half-lidded eyes caught his before she grabbed his arms and pulled herself deeper, placing her legs on his shoulders as she did.

“More.” She demanded.

Never one to deny a lady’s request, Kayden obliged. He adjusted his grip to her thighs before beginning to pound away at her pussy, picking up speed. She tightened around him in response, her inner walls seeming to clench and pull him deeper with every passing moment. In minutes he was clenching his teeth, fighting the urge not to cum inside her too soon.

Fortunately for Mirana, it seemed like she didn’t share his concern. She seemed to roll from one orgasm directly into the next, cumming over and over. Kayden would have thought it was an act if he couldn’t feel her pussy absolutely soaking his cock every time she shuddered and came. He wasn’t sure if it was the fact that she wasn’t used to being touched, the fact that it was him doing the touching, or the fact that she was losing her virginity but in that moment he didn’t care – all he knew is that she was a thoroughly satisfied Vrul woman.

“Wait.” She cried out as she recovered from another blissful orgasm, her breathing heavy. “Just…slow down for a second.”

“What’s wrong?” He asked, stopping all the way inside her.

Once she’d caught her breath the robots around them began to move. As they did she slipped her legs off his shoulders without taking his cock out before wrapping them around his waist. Metallic hands pushed her close to him until she was fully sitting on his lap while he stood, wrapping her hands around the back of his neck for support. Slowly she closed the distance, pressing her lips to his softly before smiling.

“Your turn.” She panted. “Cum in me.”

Despite it being her first time, she instinctively knew how to roll her hips against his to maximize both of their pleasure. Her clit rubbed against his body as she rode him, her tits jiggling tantalizingly as she did. His lust-addled brain prevented him from thinking about anything except for giving into his animalistic instincts and breeding the woman beneath him. If he’d been more coherent he’d have noticed the wild look in her eyes, and the fact that him giving into those instincts was turning her on even more.

“Fuck! Cumming!” He shouted.

Ropes of cum shot out of him and into her, sending her careening into a final orgasm. Her shaking and shivering on him only served to prolong his pleasure, making him cry out into the semi-darkened room. Their lips met instinctively as his legs began to shake, and the robots around them helpfully lowered them down to the ground where the couple continued to ride the aftershocks of their shared bliss.

When he began to leak out of her Kayden reluctantly rolled off before laying flat on his back. She whimpered when he pulled out, only to crawl closer and lay her head on his chest. His arm instinctively went around her and pulled her tightly, feeling her warm body form a comforting cocoon around his side. As his mind returned to him he opened his mouth to try to find the right words to say several times, but couldn’t.

“It’s okay.” She said softly, reaching over to his prosthetic arm. “Here. Extend your control cable.”

Deciding to trust in her, he reached over and pulled it out before handing it to her. She smiled before trailing it around the back of her neck and plugging it into her neural link. There was a moment where nothing happened, causing him to furrow his brow and open his mouth to speak.

Then came the flood of emotions.

It was a bit of everything – trust, vulnerability, deep affection, and happiness. A smile spread across his face when he instinctively knew that this was how she was feeling. It was different from when Ali shared her emotions, but no less impactful to him.

“I knew you felt that way about me.” Mirana said softly, confirming that the link when in both directions.

“Of course I do.” He replied. “Mirana, you’re…” He trailed off, not able to find the right word.

“I know.” She giggled, nuzzling her head against him. “Or at least I know what you mean. And it means everything to me that you accept me – naked and all.”

“Any man in their right mind would be lucky to be with you.”

“You may think that.” She admitted. “But to be naked – completely naked – with someone, as a Vrul, it’s just…”

“It’s being completely vulnerable.” Kayden nodded. “I can understand that. Should we get you something to wear so you don’t get an infection or anything?”

“No. The Xenocompatibility protocol makes me immune against anything you’re carrying, and any viruses or bacteria in this ship died long ago.” She paused for a moment. “Besides, I’m enjoying being naked and close to you. We won’t get another chance like this for awhile.”

Kayden kissed her softly on the top of her head. “You know, we’ve got at least a few hours to be naked together before we drop out of hyperspace. What do you want to do with that time?”

“That. Again.” She replied without hesitation. “As soon as I’m recovered enough to go again.”

“How about in the mean time?”

“I could show you what Vrul do for fun. You asked me once.”

Curiosity piqued, Kayden raised one eyebrow. “Alright, what to Vrul do for fun?”

“Use our link and combine our nanobots.” She replied. “We’re going to build something together.”

“Build what?”

“Anything we want. The point isn’t to possess a thing at the end. The point is the exercise of building it together.”

Considering her words for a moment, Kayden summoned his nanobots. He slowly created a small rectangular block which he let fall to the ground. The moment he was done she took control of the swarm, forming another rectangular block and placing it on top of his. He smiled as she gave control back, taking pleasure in just building something simple together.
