“Well, then,” Tschenkar said, “I suppose we’ll see you again when it’s our turn to blow our loads, or when I come to take my revenge on you. Whichever comes first.”
“Until then,” I said, “whichever comes first.”
I shut the screen off and let out a heavy sigh. Airlock took hold of my hand through her baggy sleeve, not letting the bare skin of her hand show.
I looked back at the small portion of my crew which was gathered here on the bridge. “Tschenkar is Fifth, butweare First! We won’t be making landfall though. This will be a different Breeding Swarm than we’re used to.”
“Don’t they want to breed with us?” Someone shouted.
I eyed Airlock, already imagining the way her face was probably turning red beneath her mask.
“They do,” I said, “but their society is repressed. Most of these women don’t even know what sex is.” I eyed Airlock and grinned. “While we have to wait for the women of Eden to come to us willingly, I’ve taken certain measures to guarantee we’ll have plenty of women joining us. And soon.”
I couldn’t picture her face now, and I desperately wished that I could see it. She wanted to know what I’d done, but didn’t want to ask me now. She settled on squeezing my hand harder and tighter.
“We’ve established breeding order within the pack a long time ago,” I said, “so you all know your place. Many of you are near the top of the list, so be ready to breed in the next few days.”
Mutters of excitement filled the bridge. I even spotted a few of the most eager pack members cocks getting hard and beginning to stand at attention. I wondered if Airlock was looking at any of them, or was she looking at mine?
“Now,” I said, taking Airlock by the hand, “I have important matters to attend to. I don’t want to be disturbed unless it’s an emergency.”
Holding her by the hand, I escorted her out of the bridge, and I had the ship swallow us up and send us through its innards, until it spit us out into the Captain’s Quarters, which was the largest and most luxurious room on the ship. And it was mine.
