Zoe
Some of the Dreads were finally in range for communication by the time we were nearing Farseek. Argen finally commed me, and I had a hard time not to cry when he did. It was so good to see him, even though only on my com-screen.
“Argen, I was so worried.”
“I know, sweetheart. I hated leaving you hanging like that---not knowing---but it was out of my control,” he said gently. “I’ve missed you so much. It won’t be much longer. We just put into orbit at Farseek. I will be coming over to resume my shuttle duties.”
“Will I see you before that?”
“Count on it. I asked for the second shift so we could have some time together. I need you like I need to breathe.” He gave me that sexy smirk of his and my body responded almost immediately. I suspected his was too. I was glad we would have some bonding time before he went on duty.
“Did you see the new list from the Sargans? Your mother is confirmed alive! With the Consortium and Alliance-aligned, we won’t have to go out to find your people anymore. They will be returned.”
“And we were told the Alliance would contact your families to let them know you are alive and well. This also means you could go back to Earth if you wish.”
“Maybe someday---but only if you are coming too. Honestly, I’m getting tired of space. I just want to feel the ground under my feet again. The last time that happened was the day Commander Maktu took us down to Halor almost three years ago.”
“That’s okay with me. I’ve been ready to go home for three years. You won’t get any argument from me,” he said.
“I feel pretty sure my family is all right. They don’t live anywhere near the cities the Drayids attacked. Soon we will be able to communicate with them. Right now, I am so glad to be able to communicate with you, my love.”
“Me, too. I can’t wait to hold you. It feels like forever.”
“Don’t I know it. A year ago, I never met you, now I feel like I have always known you, always loved you. I hate being without you.” I said.
“Me, too, baby. But I’m so glad to see you at least. Soon, we’ll be together soon.”
Two days later I was walking out of the bathroom naked from taking a shower, and Argen was standing there. I squealed with a start before I realized it was him. Then I walked straight into his arms, and we kissed long and passionately. As we kissed he backed me into our sleeping alcove, and we fell into bed with him on top of me.
I remember thinking he was overdressed but there was time to get his clothes off in a while. I was happy to have him there on top of me kissing me like he missed me as much as I missed him.
“Argen,” I murmured when he finally lifted his mouth from mine. I wanted his clothes off and him inside me, but he had other plans.
“It’s okay, Zoe. I’m going to take care you,” he whispered.
As he started working his way down my neck, kissing and nibbling my flesh, I knew what he was planning. He took his time working his way down my body, kneading my breasts with his hands while kissing my neck and upper chest. He followed with his mouth, sucking each nipple in turn.
Then he went lower, kissing and nibbling, teasing his way down my belly until he reached my mons. As he parted my nether lips with his fingers, I spread my legs to give him access. My reward was the caress of his tongue up through my slit and over my clitoral bud. I was so turned on by then it didn’t take much for him to have me keening loudly as I came for him.
I squirmed and writhed, moaned as he kept my orgasm playing out at length. Finally, he lay his cheek on my belly and ran his hands up and down my sides. I caressed his head and ran my fingers through his short hair.
A few minutes later he kissed my belly just above my mons. He got up and pulled off his clothes and joined me on the bed. I could see he was hard and more than ready to fuck me and I opened my arms and my body.
He knelt between my thighs and leaned over me on his hands and knees. As he lowered himself onto me and into me, I wrapped my arms around him, staring up into his face.
“God, I missed you!” I said softly. “You feel wonderful.”
“So, do you.” He smiled and kissed me, tasting like my essence.
But to feel his incredible body on me and in me and his lips on mine was so exquisite I could only sigh and moan in delight. Argen tried to take me slowly, but he had already held back too long to pleasure me first. Soon he was pounding into me hard and fast.
He felt fantastic, and I loved every minute of it. For three months, I longed to have him in a lover’s embrace, and he was finally there.
It didn’t take him long to come as I expected, but I came again as well. We kissed and touched for a long time afterward. Still hard, Argen never left me, and soon we made love again, this time slowly and tenderly with long tongue tangling kisses---and murmured I-love-you’s in between.
We make love for a long time then dozed for a couple hours before Argen, and I started our shifts.
I was anxious to see Farseek, but I knew that Argen wouldn’t even really get to see it either. He would be at the shuttle letting people off then heading back to theKurellisfor more passengers. All of the Brigade was eager to see Farseek again, but command decided their people should be taken ground side first.
Now that Argen was back, I could wait a few more days. It wasn’t going to take as long as we thought, because with all ten Dreads back in the system, they sent their shuttles to help with unloading theKurellis.
The first group that had been returned to Farseek pitched in to welcome the new returns. They also made sure that the new homes were stocked with food and necessities so they would have what they needed to return to their lives or start their new lives.
Reparations would give them enough credits to live on while they planted crops or found a way to earn their living. Even though they were getting most of the help they needed to resettle in their new homes, nothing would ever be the same as it was. Most people had friends and relatives killed or separated into slavery. Many of them had been forced into slavery.
It was going to be a big adjustment for Argen and me as well. I’d been in space for three years, and Argen had been a slave and in prison. He was planning to farm on his family’s land once the bots arrived. He would stay in the Brigade on reserve, as they would be patrolling in the Farseek sub-sector instead of on the border between the Consortium and the Sargus Empire.
