“Ya think? I was warm and snug …and…and you two woke me!” My mate is really in a twist.

We needed you to come with us to the Officer’s Mess, I let her know. We will let you spend the day with your friends as we see to our duties.

“Oh really, I am to play bridge with the girls while my strong males go to work?” I am confused.

“No, my heart, you won’t be on the bridge with us,” I correct her. “You will stay with the other females. You will be less likely to stay out of trouble there.”

She sneers. “First off, bridge is a game that bored housewives used to play. Secondly, why can’t I start working for navigation. Thirdly, I am not going to be your plaything that you put in a box when I am not useful.”

Tan is ready to burst. “You, human, are going to do as we say. Tet and I need to make sure you are safe! And do not say you are the play thing, like you weren’t there right with us!”

“Oh, so now, you are slut shaming me for enjoying sex with you two!” She yells.

“NO! You were magnificent! You are not a slut…whatever that is. You are our mate. We must protect you until we have claimed you. And even then we will always protect you.” Tan stomps to the door. “Come, mate! You, my heart, will eat your first shift meal with us, then spend time with the other humans.”

“You can’t order me around! I am only going with you because I need some food, now that I am awake. Thanks to you!”.

And with that, our amazing morning turns into another argument. I can only hope the day gets better as I follow behind the angry pair.

Chapter Thirteen

Ab’Nel

My Commanding Officer is an idiot… and he smells unnatural. Rumor has it he is under the powers of witch. Must be under a spell of some type, because before his meeting with our benefactors I caught him in a bathhouse using the baths. Misagian cruisers do not have cleansing units. We do not use them. That is something our females do. We are males and baths take our virility from us. At least that is what our priests say. Never having fucked anything, let alone a female, I do not know.

Our Captain came back from his meeting smelling from that unnatural smell and smiling triumphantly. I do not know who he meets with and I do not trust that smile. Did his contacts give him a female? I know he was hoping to get a mate when he gets back from this mission. But what if he is being paid in female flesh and we are not getting paid at all? Well, I better see a paycheck soon or I will kill him and take over. I am through with our leadership getting perks and we, the ones doing the work, are getting nothing of value.

“Ab’Nel, my friend!” Captain Schnel’Dn says. “I have great news. When we get the cargo back from the Galactic Council Station, I will be in a great situation! And you will benefit as my second-in-command, my boy.”

“I am glad to know this,” I state cautiously.

“You should be. However, we need to be prepared.” He begins to tell me his plans to sneak onboard the station and hide in a safehouse, provided by friends of the Councilmember from Misagia. I am to stay on the ship and make sure that our cloaking tech is working. “Our benefactors paid a pretty penny for it and we don’t want the wrong people getting a hold of it, now do we.”

“No, Sir.” I really can’t bear the smell of him at this point. I will report him to our councilmember if things go wrong. The thought makes me smile.

“Now, my boy.” I hate when he calls me that. I am two spans younger than him, not thirty. “If something goes wrong, I need you to do something for me.”

“I would be honored to, Sir.” I lied. I will enjoy doing things to dishonor this male.

“If something should, in the unlikely chance, there are two things I need of you. Wait a moment. Come with me.” He takes me aside and into his private space off the deck, Closing the door “The first is to pack up my room and send it to my brother, Co’Gn. He will know what to do with things and don’t mention anything you find. Understand?”

I nod, though depending on the information I find, I am not above a little blackmail.

“Next, there is a memory chip in my office, behind that panel.” He points to the left and I see a small maintenance panel. “It is important that you, as Captain, take that chip and use it wisely, as I know only you can. My boy, you are not like the others, and if you follow my instructions, you will be rich and powerful.”

“Sir?” I am intrigued. He laughs.

“No, No, my boy…Don’t get any ideas.” He tugs me under his arm and looks around the room like someone else is there. “If I am successful, you will be Captain and will be given the chip. Just don’t blow it, by being too curious at this point. Patience is the key! Now, go get us heading to the Council Station. Remember, use the cloaking drive.”

“Yes, Sir.” I am curious, but I can wait. Things may workout in my favor if I just bide my time.

Chapter Fourteen

Kelsey

I follow my boyfriends…mates…husbands… I don’t know what to call them, but they are mine…into the Officer’s Mess. The other ladies are all there, except for Maryellen…That’s a surprise…She gets to sleep in but I don’t, lucky bitch.

Now, my heart, you know that they are in a mating frenzy currently, Tan explains to me.
