Pakhi's Mate: More Worlds Beyond Page 4

  “Who did this to you?”

  “Well, they had red hair, brown eyes and yellow skin. There were two of them.” He was looking at me and I could feel his anger.

  “Two of the Rahu did this? I need to let Algie know. I have never fully trusted them, as their planet is still one that condones slavery. It’s in our quadrant, so they are allowed to live on Santar and serve on our ships.” He was mad. I could feel it and it was making me even angrier.

  “Let’s go line them up and I’ll show you who they are.” He looked at me and I could tell he was thinking about it. I got up to get dressed, but he pulled me to him.

  “Let’s wait until Algie looks into it.”

  “Let’s get dressed and walk through the halls so everyone can see they failed. We can go get something to eat. I’m starving.”

  “Ok.” He smiled.

  As we entered the Galley we got many stares. I saw a table of yellow males, along with the two that drugged me. “Pakhi, there they are.” I said as I looked toward the table of Rahu.

  “Which ones?”

  “The two on the far left. They are looking down trying to avoid eye contact.”

  “Ok, I see them.” I got my food, but noticed that Pakhi didn’t take anything for himself. We made our way to where Algie and Cedrick sat. “Cedrick, will you stay with Adriana? I need Algie to assist me with something.”

  “Yes Commander. I will be honored to guard your mate.”

  “What are you going to do Pakhi?” I asked.

  “I’m going to take care of a couple of traitors. Let’s go Algie.” Pakhi and Algie confronted the two males and escorted them out as I sat there with Cedrick. As we finished our food, I asked if he would like to go to the gathering room. He gave me a confused look.

  “The room where all the males gather and drink.”

  “Oh, you mean the Common Chambers. That sounds great, let’s go.” He escorted me out.

  Pakhi

  The two Rahu, Ostur and Utan, sat across from Algie and I in the detainment room. I would have my answers one way or another. They sat there with their backs straight and their faces neutral. They thought I couldn’t feel their fear. I turned to Ostur first. “Why did you try to kill my mate?” I waited but he said nothing. I then looked to Utan, “Was this your plan or someone elses?” Still nothing.

  “Pakhi, if we want answers, we will have to take them.”

  “I know Algie. I will give them one more chance and that is all.” I looked at Ostur and then Utan and said “Males, this is your last chance to tell me what I want to know.” I could feel the fear, but they remained silent. “Algie, you get the information from Utan, and I will get what I can from Ostur.”

  “Yes Commander.”

  I sat there looking at Ostur with our eyes locked. There were few that knew the full depths of our powers, but Ostur was about to find out. My mind entered his and I looked into his memories. It was very uncomfortable almost painful to an unwilling male. As I finished, Ostur slumped in his chair. I turned to Utan just as Algie released his mind link, and Utan slumped as well.

  As we left the detainment room, I instructed Samian to lock them in a cell until further notice. “What did you find Algie?”

  “This is huge brother. I saw Omar order them to kill Adriana. Utan knows there is a greater plan, but Omar didn’t discuss it with him. He will try again.”

  “Agreed, Ostur also thought he was doing this to help Rahu. The only thing he knew was Omar has someone on the inside at the palace, but he did not know who.”

  “What do you wish to do?”

  “Find Omar.” I was upset and I would have my answers. I did not wait this long to find my mate just to lose her. “Adriana, where are you love?”

  “We are in the Common Chambers having a glass of Barla.” I left to find my mate. I decided to walk there so I could calm down before seeing her as the anger was radiating from me. Everyone I met in the corridor moved out of my way.

  As I entered the Common Chambers, I found Adriana and Cedrick talking and laughing. My eyes found hers as she asked, “Are you Ok Pakhi?”

  “I am much better now that I’m here with you.” I grabbed me a glass of Barla and sat down beside Adriana. I put my arm around her and pulled her close. I needed to feel her beside me. Her presence alone calmed me. “What were you two talking about?”

  “I was telling Cedrick stories about home, specifically, about my two sisters.” She smiled but I could feel her sadness.

  “Did I tell you we found Earth’s coordinates from the Agrarian ship?” I felt a burst of hope through the link. “Are you not happy with me Adriana?”

  “No, you didn’t tell me that. How far away is it?” “I am very happy with you Pakhi, but it would be such a relief to let mom and dad know that I’m Ok, and happy. I can’t imagine what they are going through right now.”

  “I understand love. I would feel the same way if our situation was reversed.” “It takes about one Standard Santar year to get there. The Agrarians use a wormhole that only takes about one standard week, but it is much too dangerous. I’d guess they lose half their ships.”

  “Are you planning a trip there?” Her hope and excitement were almost overwhelming. I had to laugh.

  “Yes, we are. You’re my mate so it makes sense that other mates may be on Earth as well. We thought we would die out as a species, but you have gave us such hope. Algie wants to head the mission after we reach home and discuss it with our parents.”

  “Can we go to?” I felt his disapproval immediately. “Or can Algie give my parents a message for me?”

  “It would be hard for us to go Adriana, as I am the Prince of Sandar. Two standard years is a long time to be gone. I’m sure Algie would be glad to contact your parents.”

  “Thank you Pakhi. I’m sure they will be surprised to see Algie. Did I tell you that we have not achieved space travel, except to the moon and one of the nearby planets? Humans don’t know that other life exists.”

  “What?” He said surprised. “This will change how we approach the situation. Will you help us when we plan this mission?”

  “I would love to.”

  Chapter 7

  Cedrick and I made our way to the Common Chambers. I really needed a drink and I didn’t care about what the others thought. Cedrick asked me about Earth, my family and friends, and then asked me if I worked. I told him about some of the missions I went on. He couldn’t believe females were allowed to do that kind of work. When he said that, I couldn’t let it go.

  “What do you mean they allowed us to do that? On Earth, men and women are treated equal.” At his confused look, I said “males and females. They do the same jobs and females take care of themselves. Is it not that way on Santar?”

  “No, it’s not. There are very few females on Santar, so we are very protective of them. They are the future, even though we are a dying species.”

  About that time, I felt Pakhi’s rage. I didn’t know what was going on, but he wasn’t happy. I still tried to smile and talk with Cedrick. A few moments later Pakhi walked in. As he sat down, he told me they found Earth. That was the best news I had heard in a long time. I just needed to let my parents know I was alive and happy. “Thank You for telling me.” I threaded my fingers through his. His other arm was around me. I sent feelings of love to him as I realized that yes; I did love him.

  I finished my drink then turned to Cedrick, “Thank you for an enjoyable evening Cedrick. I think I will go to my quarters now.” I turned to Pakhi “Care to join me?” He smiled and he drained the rest of his drink.

  “I will see you later Cedrick.” Pakhi said as he took my hand.

  Back in our quarters, Pakhi ran a tub of water. I’m not sure what it is called here, but it looked like a tub to me. It wasn’t very big, but we both sat in it anyway. He sat with his back against the side, and my back was against his front. His arms circled around me. It was a very intimate setting. The warm water also felt good on my p
ussy. He must have read my mind.

  “I thought this would help your soreness. Six standard hours is a long time to have sex.” He said as his hand drew circles on my thigh. It felt so good.

  “Yes, it is. Did you find out anything from the two yellow males?”

  “I did. It is a much bigger than we first thought. Algie is looking for Omar. He was the one that sent Ostur and Utan to drug you. They never thought you would live to identify them.

  “Omar knew things about you. He told me he had a relative that worked at the palace.” I felt a brief flash of his rage.

  “When did he tell you this?”

  “When I met him for the first time, he was asking about Earth, and I was reluctant to tell him anything. He accidently let it slip that he had a relative at the palace that keeps him informed. I’m sorry that I forgot about that and didn’t tell you.”

  “It’s Ok. I will alert my parents in case they are targeting them.”

  “Can you talk to them this far out?”

  “Yes, we are not that far from Santar.”

  “Could you talk to someone on Earth from here?”

  “No, we would have to be in your solar system. Sorry love.”

  “Father, I have found my mate.”

  “Praise the Gods son. I am very happy for you.”

  “Thank you father, I am very happy as well. I need to tell you some bad news; I have discovered a plot against us. The Rahu tried to kill my mate but were unsuccessful. I will speak with Omar soon as he is the one that sent them. I wanted to warn you that Omar has a relative working in the palace that is feeding him information.”

  “Thank you. We will be careful.”

  “There we go, it’s taken care of.”

  “That’s amazing that you can talk from so far away, thank you for letting me listen. Your father sounds like he cares about you.”

  “He does, my mother even more so. I can’t wait for you to meet them. As for talking to them, we only do it in an emergency. The further away we are, the more it drains our energy.” We sat in the water and just enjoyed each other. He placed kisses on my neck as he rubbed up my arms to my shoulders. I felt so loved. I was also getting turned on, and I wasn’t the only one. I could feel his erection in my back.

  “Pakhi, I don’t think I can have sex right now, but I want to explore you…taste you. Please?” He picked me up and carried me to the bed. We were still wet but he didn’t seem to mind. I rolled on top of him then sat with my knees straddling his waist. My fingers started at his forehead and traced his face. He was so defined, he nose and cheekbones. His eyes were blazing at me again, and I felt my insides quiver. I traced down his neck, arms, then back to his chest. I continued touching and exploring his body as I made my way down his abs, and then to my prize.

  I gripped his cock with my hand and slowly slid it up and down. He closed his eyes and had his mouth slightly open, he moaned. I felt in control and I liked that I could make him feel this way. With one hand on his cock, the other one cupped his balls. It was amazing how similar he was to Earthmen. I lowered my head and slowly took as much of his cock as I could in my mouth. My tongue swirled around the head as I found a steady pace. He threaded his hands through my hair, and with one thrust of his hips, he yelled my name as he came in my mouth. I swallowed all of him. It still amazed me that he tasted like coffee and chocolate, instead of being salty. As I licked my lips, I raised my eyes to his and saw them blazing.

  Pakhi

  Adriana had her mouth around my cock, and it was so erotic to see her lips around me. I started to warn her, but it was too late, as I emptied myself in her mouth. I lifted my head to apologize but noticed her licking her lips like it was the best dessert ever. I felt her satisfaction. “Adriana, tell me how to make you feel good. What do I do?” She laid down beside me on the bed as I sat up. She spread her legs and her middle finger made tight circles at the top of her sex.

  “You could do this with your finger, or your tongue.” My eyes shot to hers. I definitely wanted to use my tongue. I wanted to taste her as she tasted me. I lowered myself between her legs and caught her watching me with desire in her eyes. I lowered my head as my tongue stroked the small nub. I alternated between making small circles with my tongue and sucking on it. I spread her legs even more and used my fingers to feel the small nub at the top of her sex. I raised my eyes to hers as I moved down to her pussy so I could taste her. My tongue separated the folds, as it sought entrance. She was so soft and warm. Before I realized what I was doing, I was tongue fucking her. Adriana yelled out my name as her hips bucked and she jerked uncontrollable. She grabbed my head and pulled me closer, and I pushed my tongue deeper inside her. I tasted her juices, and it left me craving more.

  As her jerking stopped, she raised up to look at me. “That was amazing!” Then let her head drop back on the bed.

  “I thought so as well.” I laughed as I crawled up beside her and we laid there together.

  The next day as I made my way to the Bridge, Algie met me in the corridor. I knew it was bad news as it was radiating off him. “Tell me.”

  “The Agrarians are on an intercept course and I am not having any luck locating Omar. Someone has warned him, and that means we have more traitors.”

  “Have everyone at their stations and prepare for battle. If the Agrarians want a fight, then we will give them one.”

  “Yes Commander.” Algie said as we made our way to the Bridge. Everyone turned to look as they all felt our presence. “Males, the Agrarians are on an intercept course, and everyone needs to be ready. We will face them head on and our victory will be a warning to others.”

  Two standard hours later, the Agrarian ship fired at us. We received minimal damage, and returned fire. “Commander, there are two ships instead of one. They were so close that our radar only registered the one, and it’s firing at our engines.”

  “Take it out!” The Agrarians got one good shot before we destroyed it. The other ship turned tail and left. They did enough damage to render us vulnerable to another attack. “Cedrick, contact the Sukararians. I believe the Vimana is still close by. See if they will offer assistance while we make repairs.”

  “Yes Commander.”

  Adriana

  Pakhi had left earlier for the Bridge. I was so tired of these black jumpsuits, and had said as much to him. I guess he was tired of feeling my aggravation of always dressing like a male. He brought me a portable replicator and informed me that I could design my own clothes. I got to work immediately and made several nice form fitting dresses. I also made some soft pants and nice comfortable shirts. It was perfect. Wearing the pants and soft cotton like top, I decided to explore some more.

  I made my way down several corridors, checking different rooms, the ones that wasn’t used as quarters. I found a private dining area, meeting rooms, and my favorite, a room with many chairs and a view of space. It was as though one wall was made of glass. I could sit here all day and gaze at the stars.

  As I stood to leave, I heard someone coming up behind me, and before I could turn around, he covered my mouth with his hand. I lifted my right leg and slammed the heel of my foot into his knee. He released me as he started to grab his knee. When he bent over, I slammed my elbow into his face. “You stupid bitch, I’ll get you for this!” I turned to see Omar bleeding from his nose. His blood was orange. Ugh! Yellow skin and orange blood, how disgusting!

  Two more yellow males came rushing in. They each grabbed an arm as Omar stood. “Adriana, brace yourself. The Agrarians are about to fire on us.” I smiled at Omar.

  “I don’t know what your smiling at you stupid bitch. Everything was fine until you came. The Santarians would have been extinct in a few years and we could have taken over. Now Pakhi has found you, and they will all be looking for their mates. You have ruined everything and I am going to kill you.” His smile was evil. I just stood there with a passive look on my face. I had been in worse situations.

  As Omar walked toward me with a knife in
his hand, I waited until he was close. I shifted all my weight to my left leg as I kicked him in the balls with my right. He fell to the ground as he cupped himself. I then kicked him in the face and knocked him out.

  About that time, the ship shuddered and the other two that were holding me lost their balance. They stumbled. I expected this so as soon as it shuddered I snatched my arms back. I turned to the right, punched him in the face, and immediately kicked the one now behind me in the stomach. I turned back to the first one and kicked his knee, and he fell. With one final kick to the face, he was out. The other one turned and ran. Coward!

  “Adriana, are you Ok?” Pakhi asked with such concern.

  “I’m fine.”

  “Good, the Agrarians are gone.”

  “Ok. I have a present for you. Can you come to me? I don’t know where I am, but one wall is glass and I can watch the stars.” He flashed in.

  He took one look around and when he looked at me, I felt his rage. I looked down at my body and saw the orange blood on my hands and shirt. There were bruises on my arms where they grabbed me. Besides that, I was fine. “Pakhi, I’m Ok. I kicked their asses! The third one got away. He has a bloody nose, but didn’t stay and fight. The coward ran.” Pakhi pulled me close and wrapped his arms around me.

  “Algie, I found Omar. I need you a Cedrick here to take two males to the detainment room.” A few moments later Algie and Cedrick appeared. They both looked at the scene, and then looked at me with wide eyes. I just stared back at both of them. I have no idea what they were thinking.

  “What?” I couldn’t take it anymore. They just kept staring at me like a bug under a microscope. Algie finally spoke first.

  “You did this?” He sounded skeptical.

  “Yes, although I let one get away. Sorry. I don’t know his name, but just look for the one with the bleeding nose.” Cedrick and Algie just shook their heads. I guess this was not normal female behavior.
