I faltered.

Nina.

I took in the sight of her beautiful little body, still flushed from when I’d taken her hard that morning. I could still see the pink marks from my palm on her pussy meant to remind her that I owned her in every physical sense.

She was a feisty little thing but that didn’t change the fact that she was human. That she was weak in battle and could be hurt just by a stray piece of shrapnel. There was no way she’d stand a chance if this culminated into what I thought it might.

I couldn’t keep her here at the helm. It would be the most dangerous place to keep her. I could send her back to my bedroom

to rest. My quarters were secure, but not impenetrable. I wanted to make sure she didn’t get hurt and that she was protected, which left me with only one other option.

The cargo hold.

I’d had it reinforced many years ago so that if our ship was ever breached, we could fall back and defend ourselves from there. It was also impossible to get out of because sometimes the cargo I had stolen had a heartbeat, just like the Aberrants I had imprisoned below.

The safest place for her would be there and there was no time to explain to her my reasoning. She was going to have to obey me because I was the captain of this ship and she was mine to do with as I pleased.

“Javier, please escort Nina down to the cargo hold. See to it that she is placed down there until we leave the perimeter of Kraken Prime,” I ordered.

I could see her still out of the corner of my eye. She turned toward me and opened her mouth to protest, but I shook my head.

“I won’t go,” she said, her voice tense.

“You will go with Javier, little human. Defy me now and you’ll feel my belt on that disobedient little bottom until you are very thoroughly reminded that you do what I tell you to do without question. Don’t make me say it again,” I growled, and her eyes narrowed toward me.

I turned toward her, leveling her with my gaze and she took a step back. I could see the anger in her eyes at being pushed aside, but it wasn’t up to her. The battlefield was no place for a weak little human.

“Yes, Commander Vane,” Javier answered. He stood and strode over to Nina. His hands closed on her shoulders and he turned her toward the door.

“Yes, sir,” Nina spat through her teeth, keeping her eyes level with mine. She glared at me and turned away rather abruptly, allowing Javier to lead her out of the room. She didn’t look back toward me again. It irked me that she hadn’t obeyed me immediately and I found myself thinking about what I was going to do to her in order to punish her for hesitation and continued defiance.

When we were safely out of range from the Shadow Star, I was going to teach her a lesson in obedience. She was going to learn that her little pussy and mouth weren’t the only places I could punish with my cock. She was going to learn that her tight little bottom hole would be too.

She’d be screaming for forgiveness as I made her come with my cock fucking that tight little ass. She’d be screaming for me until she begged me to stop and then she’d scream for me some more because she didn’t get to decide when her punishment was over.

I did.

A short time later, Javier returned and informed me that Nina had been properly contained. He told me she had insisted on being placed in a cell with a few particular women and that he had complied, not seeing anything wrong or problematic with her request. He also mentioned that he had increased the number of men guarding the cargo hold, seeing as to the considerable value of the goods we were planning to sell in the near future.

“Good work. Now let’s return to the problem at hand,” I directed. “I want an update on the status and position of the Shadow Star immediately.”

Javier quickly got to work, and I stood by his side as he analyzed the data that had come in since he’d left his position at my order.

“No change in energy levels or speed. Steady travel toward Kraken Prime,” he answered after a few minutes of careful deliberation.

I’d have to proceed carefully from now on. With no outward signs of hostility, I saw no reason not to proceed with our plans to fuel our ship on the small planet.

“Prepare to land on Kraken Prime. Don’t engage any more weapon systems until we’re safely within the confines of their planetary shield where it will be much harder for the Shadow Star to track. Should they show signs of aggression there, we’ll show them what it means to meet us in battle,” I ordered.

My name was feared in space.

Greyburne should be scared of it too. If he wasn’t, he was about to learn that he was very, very wrong not to be.

Should he attack me and my men, he was as good as dead.
