The musk of sex permeated the room. I was boneless, so when Vryek sought to examine me, it was Ruzan who moved me around so that he could spread my legs enough for Vryek to remove the insertions.

Ruzan kept petting me, humming a song that stirred my soul.

“Did I pass? The test?”

“With flying colors, my Priya.”

“So I’m healthy? That’s what that test was for, right? To check if I’m healthy?” Good lord, what if I wasn’t? What if I got some dread disease that my dumb human body couldn’t handle? Didn’t that happen with immune systems when exposed to new viruses?

Ruzan trailed a fingertip down the bridge of my nose. “There now. Smooth. You don’t have to worry, my Priya. You are healthy and compatible.”

Compatible? With what? I asked the same question aloud.

“With us. With the ship. Your body is strong and can withstand bonding.”

But I already bonded with the ship. I didn’t need a test for that? I said so out loud.

“Before the heat haze took your mind temporarily, the ship said that you had wanted to know if we would be compatible. Now you know.”

My cheeks burned so hot, I wouldn’t be surprised if they were awash in flames. “So what now?” I was pointedly aware of the still hard cock throbbing at my back.

The look that came over his face was very male. “Now? Now we play.”

“Play?”

I shifted my gaze back to Vryek, who had re-entered the room after taking care of whatever result he needed to take care of. Instead of the covering he wore earlier, he was naked as well. His cock was just as hard as Ruzan’s. “A few minutes for the test. Hours for the pleasure,” Vryek reminded me.

The way Vryek licked his lips while gazing between my spread legs, I knew where he wanted to be as he stalked closer to me.

The test nearly killed me. How was I supposed to survive their idea of pleasure?

Ruzan

Vryek was beyond crazed. He was the ship’s mind, all cool logic and analyses. Or so he liked to think of himself.

I knew him better. Behind that exterior that valued rules and order hid a berserker that pulled down entire sections of the prison compound in his rage for justice.

He was one of the few I trusted to fight by my side, and over the years, the only one I’d trust at my back. We shared a connection because of our bond with the ship. Hopefully, Priya would see and accept that bond as well and become the ship’s soul—the one that binds its heart and mind.

I didn’t want to think of how it would destroy Vryek to lose Priya. Ignorance was one thing. Knowing what could be, and then losing it was quite another.

A look passed between us. We would be very, very careful. Losing our soul was not an option.

I caressed Priya in the way she liked, and she shuddered against me. Her wet heat spilled on my thighs. I wanted to lap up the sweetness, but my time would wait.

Vryek needed to bond with her as much as I did.

“Do you like to look upon him as much as you liked to look upon me?”

A pretty glow suffused my Priya’s cheeks. They brought to mind her swollen cunt. That was the current focus of Vryek’s attention.

Priya nodded shyly. Vryek knelt before her. The difference in their heights still made them eye level.

I pressed my lips against her temple. “I want Vryek to taste you. Do you want that too?”

“Yes,” she said, her words breathy with her rising passion.

She was about to come with a simple eye-fuck from Vryek. Her lust wasn’t due simply to her heat, either. It was obvious now that she shared openly with us. His self-satisfaction was palpable through our shared link.
