Page 37: Village of Schemers


“Both you and Aranche need to work tomorrow; we’re living on altruism right now and that isn’t exactly right. “  Nathan said in response to Gilarose’s earlier statement about being able to be a secretary for him, granted he was taking a moment to measure up all the ramifications of the action.   Everyone needed to pull their weight right now, including himself and despite being injured he knew he’d be cleaning up the area come the following day.   Leaning back, the tinges of pain along his body became a bit more pronounced leaving only a train of thoughts to ponder how bad his injuries were. 

Derailing that train hurriedly, Nathan would look back up at Gilarose whom seemed to be a little more than eager to hear what his next orders were.  “Make sure that Jack and Tesla go out to drum up some business, have Zephyr run a proximity check on everyone from the roofs.  Just to make sure no bad deals or kidnappings are attempted.   Lily needs at least another day or so to heal properly and Ludma….in her current condition she’s too likely to give a freebie.”    The dark skinned prostitute would simply nod and write it all down on her slim sheet of paper by her side before looking back at Nathan.   Having already collapsed, she smirked then stepped outside of the room and walked down the hallway.

Once she had managed to move all the way across the building away from where they were sleeping, Gilarose stepped into a vacant room and locked the door behind her.  Taking another precaution, she slipped into the bathroom and closed that door as well, locking it before placing her fingers against her temple.   In response, her eyes filled with electronic light illustrating that she was at least enhanced to the point of having incredibly sophisticated communication equipment installed into her body.  Once she started speaking, her tone changed drastically.   It was harsh and almost vicious going through the process of evaluating the statements given to her while simultaneously processing her own words.  “Well, how did he respond?”  Waiting for the person at the other end of the line to make their statement, Gilarose would look over her nails for a second before looking back up.  “Eighty-two percent, huh, get him back up to ninety by the tomorrow; we’re running a business here not some idiotic charity organization.”

Standing up and beginning to pace a little, Gilarose’s back would lean against the wall before she fidgeted a bit more.  Rubbing her legs together s her body began to heat up.  “Sir, I wanted to ask again why it was necessary for me to work as I am?”  At this point, her voice was becoming softer again yet fear was present as she began to tremble at her knees.   Whatever voice was on the other end was enough to make her drop any signs of dominance and fall into submission.  “Yes sir, I understand but why couldn’t I have been part of maintenance or possibly a mercenary.”  Her words were beginning to fall off, something inside of her was working and the fight against it was a losing battle.   Gilarose’s free hand shot down into her panties, pushing the rapidly dampening fabric aside so she could touch the tender flesh of her labia. 

“Stop…please….”  She whimpered out, but the connection stayed strong even as she moved her other hand over one of her over-sized breasts.   Pinching the nipple between index and middle finger, Gilarose felt shivers going down her spine as she was manipulated like a puppet.   Grasping the underside of right breast, she shoved it upward and wrapped her mouth around the puffy and hardened nipple.  Suckling on herself as her fingers started to pressure themselves deep into her body, Gilarose’s eyes were starting to glaze over as drool ran over her breast making it moist.  Sloppy, smacking noises resounded from her lips and her cunt as she relentlessly played with herself.   Any argument that the dark woman might have tried to muster now was lost in the sexual satisfaction she was gaining from playing with herself.    

After a few minute, Gilarose would flop down onto the floor exhausted after orgasming all over herself and her clothing.  Her tongue hung out of her mouth limply, while her thoughts continued to rampage through her skull.  Can’t fight it, they’ve got complete control of me.  Oh God, I need a cock…a big juicy cock to fuck me so hard, I want one in every hole…  What have I become….   Whimpering against the floor and starting to pull herself up; the woman would pull herself into shower and begin to undress so she could clean herself before having to service customers. 

Later:

Nathan was laid out on the couch once more as the world turned on without him.  Both Tesla and Zephyr had woken up refreshed, not realizing their actions had disturbed another one; without missing a beat the two left the room and went out for an early morning run.  Neither were concerned that it was a dangerous part of Roshire considering just how dangerous they were.  When they got back, the pair would pause to really look over the building that they were currently staying in.  “Pitiful excuse of a tin can.”  Zephyr muttered under his breath kicking at the metallic exterior and listening to the echo that emerged from it. Sighing as he moved around the location, he would notice the blown out windows, the tattered parts of the walls and regions that were simply covered with wooden boards.  

“We’re not going to attract many customers in a place like this; its dirty, run down and smells bad to boot.  Most people are just going to think we’re a hive for venereal diseases and nothing more.”  Tesla stated bluntly before spitting on the ground and running her foot against the artificial grass slowly.  It was a nice touch, but Tesla couldn’t help but miss the feeling of the plant life of her home world against her skin not to mention the effects that many of them supplied.   Huffing out a sigh, she would look back to her husband with a brief glance.  “So, how has Yor’zvin been in my absence?”  Zephyr looked back towards her with his eyebrows raised before leaning back against the wall.

“I suppose, it hasn’t changed all that much.  Most of the citizens had found your penchant for getting lost or disappearing from the planet for long periods of time to mean you wanted no part of us.   Yet, many believed that you would return on your own time with new information or possibly new allies for war.  It was only after your father got the ransom notice that he sent out several of the elite warriors to hunt you down.   The general public has no knowledge of your abduction.”  Zephyr spoke casually about it, toying with the mandibles that covered his mouth before Tesla responded.

“Father is a smart man, he knows better than to allow unrest and panic to spread through the people.  Not to mention with Clan Rarok looking to hurry along the process of taking rule and remove some of the more controversial policies of my family.  The public and those with the greatest power need to see that we’re not weak and we can fend for ourselves.”  Saying this, the female Yor’zvin would watch as several aliens walked by.  It appeared that the work day was starting and soon it would be time for them and the rest of the crew to get to work.   “What of affairs, has anything new happened while I’ve been away or is everything still as it was?”  Tesla wanted everything there was to know and considering that Zephyr was the first Yor’zvin she had been in contact with for nearly a year; she was eager to get all the information she could have.  

“A few things are out of place on Yor’zvin, my lady.    There has been a lot of unrest lately, apparently there is a new clan gaining power rapidly; it demands that it be taken seriously and be given the right to join in the cycling of leadership.”  Tesla would roll her shoulders back uncaringly, that happened occasionally on her planet and the movements generally fizzled out quickly due to some scandal about a weak leader.   Ignoring it, she heard Zephyr add something else that piqued her interests.  “Apparently, the entire clan is following some old religion that our ancestors followed; which they use as a military mantra.   No sex, no fatty foods, no anything but the expansion of the mind, the spirit and the body; many of the members follow it religiously for some reason.   Their leader claims it makes them stronger and their abstaining will allow them to relish in a great debauchery once they have their demands met.”

“Religious loons,” Tesla would state with some disgust before continuing, “every time our planet gets some cult running around, we end up going through this crap.   Two hundred years ago it was the Oraf order, then a hundred years before that it was the Exodus Corporation.” 

“Don’t forget the Thesalliancas or the Fervor Knights.”

Don’t remind me,”  Tesla said rubbing the top of her head and just sighing before looking back up at Zephyr before smiling softly.  “Doesn’t matter, our society will bounce back.  It always does, it is just a little hic-up in our people will get through.  Now then, my dear husband…how have you been faring?  I can see that you’ve still got some damage from being beaten earlier, tell me, is our project really that strong?”  Zephyr would shake his head slowly at the last statement before whipping his jaw line.

“He has….potential, but right now he is incredibly rough and leaves a good many openings; if he hadn’t had assistance and I hadn’t been so headstrong…well, he would have likely been dead before too long into combat.    If you want me to analyze everything then I’ll be blunt, his combat stance is shit…his form could use work though he is pretty good at reading lower middle class attacks.  Given his penchant or using his entire body in a fight, I can tell that he could be a force to be reckoned with; if he actually trained his body.   He’s a little pudgy at the moment and needs to be hardened up, not to mention to learn to fully follow through with his punches; he’s just using his arms and not his back when he swings.”  When Zephyr finished his report, the few black strands of his hair were blown back by a vehicle speeding past them from above; his own pitch black eyes gazing towards the horizon.  “A decent specimen, but not the type I would have expected you to go for.”

Tesla would look back up at Zephyr for a moment watching him pocket his hands into his pants.  Moving against him, the female’s lips pressed against his exposed neckline before she stroked his hips.  “Good eye, but you forgot to mention that his cardio-vascular system is his weak point; he tires out easily when the adrenaline dies down.  I would say at best he could run three or four miles if he was being pushed along with friends, but maybe only one or one and a half on his own will-power.  He’s also lazy.” Smirking up at him, the red-head’s own black eyes would gaze into his own before she ran her hand against his face.  “Still, you did a great job.”

“Mmhm…thanks.”  Zephyr responded sarcastically before rolling his eyes and moving his own hands down the side of Tesla’s face.  “I’ve been faithfully following your orders as always my princess, training and keeping myself ready for when you might ask me to act.  Granted, I was genuinely worried when I heard that you hadn’t returned in such a long period of time.   Still, why look for it now….our clan still has several years to go before we must switch out of power.”

“You’re too small minded dear husband, I do what I do because it is what is best and it is what I enjoy doing most.   Now, come with me, I need someone with a modicum of vitality who can actually make me achieve a real orgasm; I might owe that man my eternal gratitude and body…but it doesn’t mean that I can’t feel less than satisfied at his performance.   Human females have much to learn about stamina.”  Giggling, she grabbed Zephyr’s hand and pulled him away to a private place where they could fuck like animals.

Anyone who had ever witnessed Yor’zvin moments of intimacy would have been able to say that what Tesla and Zephyr did was completely in the norm for them; however, many would likely wish they had a video camera for the moment.   They scratched, bit, strangled, slapped and made the scene to look more like an intense moment of hatred rather than a deep love; everything about Yor’zvin involved some type of warfare and sex was no different.   While Zephyr did his best, fought like a true warrior and stood his ground with each blow that Tesla hammered into his chest, pelvis and onto his arms.  Heavy black and purple marks rose up on their skin from the damage they did to each other; what make-up the princess wore ran down her cheeks from tear marks due to her sheer ecstasy from the moment.

When everything was done some two hours later, the pair were drenched in sweat and their chests heaved up and down; yet, despite the numerous bite marks and bruises on their bodies and faces, they were curled up together laying in a puddle of their own sexual release.  Both of their arms wrapped around the others back, but even in their release and relaxation both of them gave off the visage of predators ready to pounce on whatever prey that came their way.  “Mmmhmm…,”  Tesla moaned out in the afterglow with a playful smile before kissing Zephyr’s forehead.  “I missed my knight’s pride…”  As she giggled for a moment, she curled her head up against Zephyr’s running her hands through his dark locks.  “Keep your guard up, we reside in a village of liars and schemers.” 

After her warning, the red-head would slip out of bed and push away from Zephyr moving towards the shower nearby.  “Zephyr, get cleaned up and make sure the room is in order before you leave; the others should be getting up soon.   We’ve got…work to do.”  Nodding to her, the two remained stoic in the following moments as they cleaned, redressed and made sure that anything they happened to have broken was tossed away. 

Two hours later:

The rancor of the seventy-second level of Roshire caused Slacker Jack to wince a little bit as he stood in one of the darker corners beside Tesla whom was dressed in the tight pink top that she was wearing the other day.   Considering the sudden increase in warmth, it was understandable that she had pushed the sleeves up and kept her shorts on this time.   “Ever done anything like this before?”  Jack asked before seeing that the red-head was glaring down at him almost hatefully.

“No, prostitution is for the weak and those that do not earn their own pleasure don’t deserve it.  This entire situation is disgusting, but considering the lack of options we currently have we don’t have much of a choice…Valkerian.”  Jack cut his eyes back to Tesla and growled at her for a moment before looking back out towards the crowds.

“Shut it, you fucking Yor’zvin war-whore.   My race is gone and it’s going to remain that way thanks to your people’s constant desire to hunt us down like animals.”  Both of them locked eyes with each other before Tesla’s hand shot down and yanked one of Jack’s daggers from his pocket.   Reacting, the younger man had grabbed the other and shot it upwards both of them with the blades against the others jugular.  Tesla would only chortle briefly before looking down at him suggestively.  “I see, that time hasn’t dulled your reflexes ‘Jack’.  When was the last time I saw you?  Four or five cycles ago?  Knowing you, you would have never come to a populated planet like this on your own and considering that you’ve been so quiet about our little racial rivalry something must be going on.”

Jack kept his quiet before his eyes dilated to dots and a large psychotic smile appeared on his face.  “If you weren’t so damn astute I would cut that pretty little neck of yours and paint this alley-way with your blood.   Too bad there are too many people that would realize you were gone and all fingers would immediately point to me.”  Jack would slide the blade away and let the flat of it run against her neck.  “Your brother begged you know….he begged for a proper death as I cut each of his extremities off one by one in front of him.   He screamed in his agony, begged for it to end properly….he screamed so loudly that I eventually had to cut his tongue out so he wouldn’t give away my location.”

Tesla didn’t respond to the statement, instead, she felt the blade continue to run down the line of her throat or a moment before a brief smirk appeared on her face.  “At least he begged to die like a man and not or a quick death.”  At that point, Jack pulled the knife away from her neck and shrugged slowly before taking the other blade back as well.

“You, Yor’zvin are no fun…don’t even get upset when you lose someone precious to you.   You just get even and are done with it.   A petty, I do love seeing the emotions run rampant on peoples’ faces, giving me a glimpse into the world beneath the heartless facades of society.”  Grinning, Jack stepped away from the alley way and looked towards several buildings before pointing at three of them.  “There is a bar over there, might find a couple of lonely saps who could use a good lay there.    Over in that direction, I can see a park which will be good to come back around to later in the evening, same deal with the bar.   Hmm, lastly I think I see a gambling rink….the manager and security might not like us advertising in their joint or maybe they would.   Could lead to some interesting deals in the future possibly; still, safest bet is the bar.”  While speaking, Jack’s eyes were wondering about the crowd as if he were selecting targets of another kind.

“Ugh, you Valkerians…always obsessed with finding something to kill; this is why my people eradicated you.   All you did was kept talking about the joy of the kill, instead of the rush of the fight; made it so we couldn’t enjoy a rematch.”  Rubbing the tip of her nose, she glared down at Jack whom was crotched down and beginning to rub his hands together. 

“Not the joy of the kill, the joy of savoring another’s reaction.   Killing is just a sure fire way to get a reaction, but then again so is raping, pillaging and wanton destruction.  You fight for the sake of fighting, we fought because we wanted to see how others would react.   The Valkerian race threw themselves head-long at yours because you intrigued us, emotion meant nothing we wanted sorrow, but you gave us only rage and happiness.   We couldn’t help ourselves.”  Tesla started shaking her head at the psychopath beneath her, before she thought of something else.

“What about the other two?”

“Who Gilarose and Arachne?  Honestly, they are just people I picked up to get a fix.  I act as their guardian and they kick me back money from their…illicit acts; not to mention I get to feast off the emotions before and after they perform.”  Giggling a little, he would look back up at Tesla before pointing a finger at her.  “What about you….you’re not the type to travel in a group, Tesla Oracon wouldn’t daddy be terrified to see how low you’ve fallen.  Crawling through the gutters with a couple of humans, how disgraceful.”   Tesla didn’t respond to the question, leaving Slacker Jack to pout before looking back out into the crowd.  Both hating and also respecting the other for their own reasons.
