Page 71 of Ava Stargazer

Lust came over him, fast and strong, as he watched her jumpsuit come down. Her skin was a cream color, different, with breasts, unalike their females, who were flat there, but both had the same nipples to feed young.

She is perfect. Especially when he felt her mind sing, echoing the desire he felt. And echoing that she still wanted him. Only him.

His cock was already extended out of the protective slit that it usually resided in as he pushed his jumpsuit down. Ava reachedfor it without hesitation, pulling her hands along it in the way that she’d learned he liked, scooting up close to him on the bed.

He shone and connected with her, feeling that she missed him too, and that she’d noticed their distance the last few days.

She trailed her hands along his length and he shuddered. He knew it always made her feel powerful to have him come undone in her hands. It was a novel experience for him too, as one who always tried to control everything.

This cycle, though, he removed himself from her grasp well before that would happen. “I want inside of you, Ava,” he said against her lips as he hovered over her. He kissed her deeply, until she could feel his want for her inside her blood.

When his lips left hers she whispered, “Alright.”

He leaned down to her opening and licked her, his tongue giving off that slightly electric feeling as it traveled, and he mentally felt her pleasure when it connected with her clit, vibrating through her whole body and making her squirm even harder. He licked gently, lingering when he felt the twitches that happened in her with every stroke.

Ava shut her eyes tight, taking in the sensations, and he took satisfaction as she shook, squirming away, the heels of her feet pushing back on the blankets.

Vox reached up and splayed his large hand over her abdomen and pressed down firmly, stilling her movements while he continued tasting her, until her body began to clench involuntarily and her mind seemed to leave their connection. He took note of the movement, giving one last long lick that made her feel a jolt now from being oversensitive before withdrawing his frilled head and glancing up with a feral gaze to see her reaction. “I like when that happens. And the way your mind feels,” he said softly, closing his eyes and resting his head a moment on her stomach.

Ava let out a sigh as she watched his head move with her breathing. “So do I.”

Vox moved slowly up her body, whispering into her skin things in his language. Things her translator probably couldn't pick up, but the meaning should still be clear. Until he crawled over her to connect foreheads, while positioning himself below, at her entrance.

He kept his head pressed to hers as he eased in, filling her completely. Vox waited until she adjusted before his rhythmic motions continued, the engine whirling in the background. A low hum of pleasure vibrated his throat. Her hands tightened over his back, soft fingernails digging in as his pace grew rougher.

Despite lust overwhelming him, he kept his own hands gentle. His twin hearts were beating so hard he knew she could feel them with her arms around his back. His hands pressed down on her firmer until he came with a low hiss and pushed himself all the way in, emptying himself. Through her mind, he felt her feeling of completion added to his own, which gave him that feeling of rightness that always happened after they joined.

Vox kissed her forehead as he withdrew. “Always my Ava. My sweet bird.”

He handed her one of the towels from the side of the bed and held it to her sex to catch his seed leaking out as he moved behind her to hug her close.

Ava readjusted the towel and snuggled her back end into his pelvic area, his cock already retracting into its protective slit, leaving a smooth surface in its wake. He felt her mind becoming quieter, her worries from earlier seeming nonexistent in this moment. He held her from behind and listened to the engine whirl until Ava fell asleep with a smile on her face.

Vox kept a watchful eye over the entire area in navigation, his hands splayed out flat on the counter as he leaned forward in concentration. The ship was cloaked and had not been picked up on any sensors. The Spry had held up their end of the bargain of properly retrofitting the ship to be as useful as possible out in space. Fijjak was on hand in navigation next to him, monitoring the cloaking’s efficacy and making sure everything was in order, his many-fingered hands delicate on the controls.

The plan is working well.As it was, they could circle Cipra, getting increasingly closer without detection. He turned to watch as Ava stared at the planet and fingered her container of biologics.We will go there and leave fast.

Cipra was unimpressive. The planet was tiny. He looked out the window and over the view in disdain as they came in closer.An asteroid would be more proper of a term. The facility was on the north end of the planet. They circled it several times beforefinding a spot to land. Vox had a hard time believing that this insignificant tract of land was what they had traveled so far to find.At least it exists, though.It would’ve been worse if nothing was there at all.

He chanced a conversation with Rhutg, who was finishing the landing protocols, scanning the outside. “Where are the creatures here?”Are there any?The place felt dead and desolate asCelestiallanded, undetected, outside the facility. They would need to walk a short distance to get in.

Rhutg shrugged in return.

The planet looked so minuscule to have been where Ava lived. Vox frowned, seeing her blank expression in the glass as the ship settled.Where a good section of the Humans lived.

Ava looked over to him as he regarded her. “I was actually born here.” She swallowed, and he felt her anxiety bloom. Vox put a hand on her shoulder and hummed, helping her calm down.

Celestial’s sensors let off soft chimes as they landed. Outside the window, the edges of the facility loomed in the distance. It looked almost abandoned, and he could see rust, even from this far, lending the gray metal a reddish tone.If this is the outside ... I wonder what the inside looks like.

The engine went into stasis, and they moved down to the cargo area. A quick scan outside deemed it stable, and the doors opened, giving them their first view of the tiny world.

Vox stood on the edge of the cargo bay and breathed deep, extending his mind, reaching for any contact he could find. The air, metallic tinged, bit at his lungs and nose but was, as the sensors read, acceptable enough to be breathable.

It is cold.He could see small ice crystals outside. Such a contrast from the summertime that still reigned on Xai. He expanded his mind. “I feel them.” There were creatures stillhere, but they were below the surface, and there were not many. Some others were closer to ground level.Guards, perhaps?

“Should we wait? For them to come closer?”he asked Rhutg, angling his head in his direction.

“There’s one directly north. Alone. Too far for me to break from here,”Rhutg said.
