I tried to swallow, but my throat was bone-dry, and I couldn’t quite get the saliva to go down. I started coughing.
Kaav was tilting his head already. This time I knew what that meant.
“Do you think you’ll need to fight soon?” I asked, my voice barely a croak.
“Probably not,” he whispered. “It’s much more likely I’ll need to fuck soon.”
Just as I thought he was going to go in and kiss my lips, he went lower down, and his lips and tongue touched the soft flesh of my neck. I remembered Airlock talking about this, and I had been utterly fascinated by it. On the surface, it sounded entirely unappealing. Why would I want someone kissing and slobbering all over myneck? But the moment Kaav’s warm passion touched me there, I understood.
I threw my head back, and an involuntary sound escaped my throat. It was a moan, and it felt dangerous. It felt like if I moaned louder, I’d lose all self-control, I’d—
A voice—a veryloudvoice—filled the airlock. It was Chief Hypatia.
“Do not touch the alien any further, Weapons. We’re already going to have to decontaminate you. Don’t make more work for us.”
Kaav looked up, locked eyes with me, then ran his tongue along the full contour of my clavicle. It was a bone that I’d never even given two thoughts to, but now that he was licking it, it felt like the most sensitive part of my entire body.
Once his tongue reached the top of my sternum, he pulled away and looked at me with a clenched jaw. “Do you think she enjoys watching us?”
“I do not,” Hypatia’s voice said. “And Weapons, if the Khetar puts even one toe outside the airlock, I’ll vent you both right into space. Are we clear?”
“We’re clear,” I said, doubting she’dreallyspace me, but very much not wanting to test her either.
“She heard everything we said,” I whispered to him.
He shook his head. “I jammed her surveillance, right up until the part where I licked you.”
“Why did you let her see that part? Just to piss me off?”
He laughed. “Why would that piss you off?”
“Because!” I said, “it’s supposed to be bad that I’m tainted! You’re throwing it in everyone’s face.”
“I truly doubt anyone other than Hypatia was watching, and I wanted to see if she was as immune as she claims.”
“Stop jamming me!” Chef shouted, “or I’ll space you.”
Kaav waved a hand. “She can hear us again.”
“Weapons, I’m opening the airlock. Prepare for decontamination. It’s going to be rough.”
“Do you like it rough?” Kaav asked me.
“Huh? No! Of course not! Decontamination is going to be painful!”
He grinned, as if his question had meant something else entirely. I didn’t have the ovaries to ask him what he meant though.
An alarm went off, and the inner door started to hiss. It opened automatically, and I stood in front of it as it opened, as if that would reduce the chances that Kaav would break his promise and taint the entire crew.
He didn’t move though, he just stared at me, his eyes moving up and down my body.
“Weapons,” he said.
“Yeah?”
“Whatever you do, make sure you keep that warrior princess outfit. As much as I want to see you naked, I want to fuck you when you’re wearing some of that armor.”
My eyes widened, and the thing happened again where I couldn’t swallow no matter how hard I tried. The inner door to the airlock was all the way open now, and I doubted Hypatia wanted me to linger. It gave me a very nice excuse to jump through the door. After I was through, the door immediately started to close.
