“Rajol Aley…” Lisa spoke, her eyes lowered slightly. “I thought the name sounded familiar.”“You know about him?” I asked, pretending that I didn’t already hear the entire explanation from my resident ghost. Lisa went on to retell everything Iris said, adding things about other books she read and confirming that the writer was indeed a synth.“I see.” Aley nodded. “I’m happy to hear that you’ve enjoyed my books.”Just in case, I made him show us his ID card to confirm whether he’s really the guy he claims to be. Lilia used her book -smartphone- to check its authenticity, as she has some special accesses as a Zesionien Warrior, and turns out he’s the real deal.“So you’re a famous writer…” I said.“Yes.” He replied.“And you want us to give you a ride?”“Yes.”Something about his smile made me a bit uncomfortable. Is this what they talk about when they mention the uncanny valley? It’s an artificial smile that has no emotions behind it, just a product of calculations aiming to recreate

Lunch went on for another hour through which we discussed what needed to be done before our departure. I needed to get a new book, since I can’t access my wallet without it. Logan asked that we get supplies and other necessities. We also need some furniture and blankets.“Wow, didn’t know you can cook.” It was decided that Brayan and I would take care of the food and groceries while Lilia and Erika deal with the rest. Lisa said she’d pay for the water and some of the fuel with Aley paying for the rest. This is the first time since waking up that I’m hanging out with another guy, even though he’s an alien. Since we’ve both married recently our wives were the obvious go to topic and I began to learn a few stuff about Zesioniens and their culture. For example, taking care of the housework is traditionally the male's job.“Yes.” He said. “It’s one of the few things I’m good at.”At first this walking pile of muscles was too nervous to say anything, however he began to open up a little

Sector twenty one, planet Rooster, Gram city.“Lady Stoneheart. What a pleasant surprise.”The owner greeted Lilia as she entered the shop, a difficult expression painted on her face. Behind her was Blue, following them was Erika.“Good morning, Gilda.” Lilia said doing her best to smile. “I’ve come to take whatever we bought the other day.”“I see.” The owner nodded. “So you’ve managed to acquire a new ship?”“Yes.”“Then there is no need to come take it yourself. You could’ve just asked and I would’ve delivered it.”“Actually, there is one more thing.” Turning behind her, Lilia looked at the Herara child. “I want you to make a dress for her.”Gilda stared at Blue for a moment, her eyes slowly going wide. In the next one she chased the other customers out, going into a frenzy much like when Lilia and Seven shopped there for the first time.“I’ve never made clothes for Herara before, BUT!!!” holding the measuring tape, the shop owner slowly approached Blue. “For such a cutie I will ma

Sector Twenty one, Seven.It took another five days for the preparations to complete and with nothing to do I spent most of that time training. Not that kind of training.Among the stuff we looted from our new ship were all the weapons and ammo left behind by Giran’s crew. My routine was simple; I take a gun and shoot myself a few time then go on with my usual exercises in order to purify the energy I absorb. Since I’m not allowed to carry weapons around I had to do everything in the hotel room, however boredom would get to me from time to time and to combat it I would either go to Grand Canyon and hunt the criminals lurking there, or take a walk in the park.Why does one sound more interesting than the other? Well, the reason is simple.With everyone having a lot of free time and not much to do it was difficult to sneak into Lisa’s room. Though Lilia seemed to hang out with Erika and Blue a lot more, I didn’t want to risk being caught so I made arrangements with the adult female Zes

The ship took off and I soon learned that space travel could get even less interesting. The magic of the new ship faded after the first day and before I knew it there was nothing for me to do.Lilia spent most of her time reading books with Blue and of course I wasn’t welcomed to join them as the little one still hates me. Lisa locked herself in her room and only came out in time for dinner, or for a quick training session. As she was in a sensitive stage of her pregnancy, Erika had to stay in bed for the majority of the trip. Obviously Brayan remained by her side and bothering them wasn’t something I was keen on doing. I still didn’t trust Aley that much on top of his handsome face pissing me off, and Logan liked to take very long naps while leaving the ship on autopilot which made me wonder why we bothered to hire him.With nothing better to do I tried pouring my attention into my training absorbing and refining one energy cell after the other, however time seemed to stretch on for

The time has come. Everyone is gathered around the table, but only one of them was sitting.Taking a deep breath, I slowly walked over. There is nothing to worry about. I have already tasted it myself. It wasn’t on the same level as what we ate in Red Ramoul, still it turned out better than what you’d expect from a first try.I looked into Blue’s eyes and she looked back at me. She seems a bit stiff, her emotionless expression giving in to a hint of fear despite Lilia’s efforts to convince her to not be scared of me. Without saying a word, I placed the plate in front of her and watched as she stared at it for a moment, then gazed up at me.“We want to know your opinion.” I said then swallowed audibly.The slice was perfectly cooked. The surface had the right shade of brown and the inside was a sparkling cherry red overflowing with juiciness. Blue is still a child and obviously likes her sweets, because of that we opted to not use the spicy sauce for her plate, adding the mild one in

Though it was my first time cooking lunch turned out very well. Everyone seemed to enjoy the steak and although she still kept her distance Blue thanked me for the food politely, looking a bit livelier than before and less stressed which made me believe I’ve achieved my objective and earned quite a few points.Erika’s reaction was the most extreme. She screamed about how such wonderful food existed without her knowing then cried when she noticed that her plate was empty. I guess this is what happens when a vegan gets to eat meat for the first time.Though I was in a good mood afterwords, when I tried exercising a little I found myself unable to concentrate. It was then that Logan came to me with an invitation. Only Logan, Aley and Lilia were present. Blue was taking a nap while Brayan tended to his wife as usual so they didn’t join the game our furry pilot prepared. "So, how long have we been out here?" asked Aley.*Fwip.*"Hm? What? Did you get a bug or something?" I replied. *Fwi

Though everyone had decided to call it a night, I still didn’t feel like going to bed. Lilia was sleeping with Blue, which caused experience quite a bit of jealousy, though I didn’t know who to direct it at; Lilia because she gets to cuddle with a cute little cat-girl, or Blue because she stole my wife.Being alone with my thoughts wasn’t doing me any good. My mind keeps going back to that one point, adding to my stress levels each time.I headed to the bath thinking a quick dip would help me sleep. Taking my clothes off I threw them in an empty box by the entrance then went into one of the shower stalls and opened the hot water. In the end it only helped to stir my thoughts even more.I have yet to say it, huh?Two months have passed since I first met Lilia, one since our relationship started. I thought we have been making quite the strides lately, but when you look at it objectively our pace is quite normal. Well, if you put aside the fact that we are already married.I know how I f

I went to take a shower and after I got out I ran into Logan. He was surprised to see me, thinking I wouldn't be up for another few hours.He was holding Blue in his arms. Apparently she was playing with the other kids and fell asleep at some point so he came to put her in her bed. [This kid…]A third candidate, huh…Iris doesn’t seem to like Blue a lot. From the photos I saw and how Lilia described her I can see the similarities, and now that she has cat ears and tail instead of the Zesionien horns, Blue certainly looks like a miniature version of her.Blue reminded Iris of her childhood, and not in the pleasant nostalgic way. What made it worse was something Hir said after my speech.Blue told Lilia that she saw a ghost following me around. That shocked the both of us, but Iris felt frustrated that she never noticed she was being watched, and by a kid nonetheless. Blue was rather talented at hiding her presence, she even managed to steal my book right before our eyes and escaped wh

Sector twenty one, Gorgola’s, Tiga One, Seven.My eyes slowly fell on the somewhat familiar ceiling. The room was shrouded in a weak light and a weird smell wafted in the air."Mm…"The feint breathing sound reaching my ears brought to my attention the weak pain I felt on my chest. Lifting my head to investigate its cause I saw a ball of messy hair with what looked like horns coming out of both sides. One of them was pressed against me, that was the source of the pain."How can she even breathe like this?"Lilia was fast asleep. Seeing her like this makes me wonder if my chest was that good of a pillow. I moved aside the strands that covered her face, carefully stroking her hair. As I ran my fingers into it enjoying how silky it felt I breathed in relief and couldn't help but smile. Our naked bodies exchanged heat underneath the thin blanket. Lilia was so soft and warm. When she is sleeping beside me like this I sometimes forget about the fearsome warrior she was. This is my beautifu

Seven looked at his right hand, soaked wet after it made Lilia climax. The female Zesionien was gasping for air. She looked at him with moist eyes, her breasts moving a little with each breath she takes. Strength had left her body long ago and all she could do was accept his kiss before he gave her a moment to rest."We are just getting started yet you are already like this?" Seven said with a teasing smile. He took the blanket that was pushed aside and used it to wipe his hand."It's because… haa~… it's because you did that… ha~h...""Well, Lilia is so cute I simply couldn't resist." He went down and kissed her once more. "I want to do more… ah! I almost forgot…" He extended his hand to the wall on his left and tapped it twice. A small rectangular panel, green in color, appeared at that spot. It listed a few things; the temperature, the light and the door lock. However what he was looking for was the option to turn off communications so no one could bother them from that point on.

Sector twenty one, Gorgola's orbit, Tiga One.In her room, Lilia sat on the bedside looking somewhat nervous. She tried to calm herself taking one deep breath after the other, but her heartbeat refused to settle, and her body felt incredibly hot.Well, the heat shouldn't be a strange things considering she had finished showering a couple of minutes ago, but instead of cooling down her temperature just continued rising.I-I have to calm down, I can't let this go on!Just when the banquet was nearing its end Seven decided to take his leave. Thinking it was time to get some rest she was about to do the same, but when she rose to her feet Seven wrapped his arms around her and lifted her in a princess style carry. Those who saw it were numbered, with everyone in that place either snoring or too drunk, but she still felt the embarrassment of a crowd watching her being taken away knowing what was about to happen to her.Seven was perfectly awake. Not that sleeping for days enables him to st

Sector twenty one, Gorgola's orbit, the Verta clan’s mothership. The plan went through smoothly. There were a lot of details to go through, but for now Seven declared that it was time to celebrate. Such huge gatherings always called for a banquet. Food and drinks, music and dancing, then some crying and tears.It was a long journey that had finally come to an end. The whole clan went through a lot, and now that they’ve finally reached their end goal they could step back and get some well deserved rest.The Herara partied for hours on end, stuffing themselves before laying down and surrendering to slumber. The conference room was turned into a great hall. It was the center of the party, but now that the music had stopped and the laughter ceased, only a few heavy drunkards were still up while the rest dropped in their place snoring."Been a while since I've last seen this." From atop the stage Hir watched the satisfied expressions of his clan members, holding his cup with a drowsy lo

When they arrived back to the ship Hir summoned all the captains and the high ranked individuals to make the announcement, but he was surprised to find that the conference room was already full.Their patience had ran out. First they hear that the clan head was defeated, then that their goal was within reach. Three days passed and all they got were those two vague sets of information, and while still in the dark they were led to a place they never been to before.The higher ranked clan members were the ones who rallied the crowd to demand an answer from the head. The respect and fear they felt toward him were gone now that they know he lost to someone in a duel, and the longer they had to wait the more destabilized their loyalty became.Hir got on stage and gave a few words to introduce their new leader and as expected, he got quite the backlash. It's the first time they hear about such thing so reacting this way is perfectly normal. There were those who watched the duel between Seve

Sector twenty one, Gorgola's orbit, the Verta clan’s mothership. After it was decided that the Verta clan would be taken in by Seven they immediately set course for Gorgola.They had to call the ZSFCO and ask commander Blitz to order the retreat of the Zesionien forces that came in to intercept them. Though the old man demanded they give him an explanation later on it seemed he was convinced that things would turn out okay.The strain of the fight against Hir ended up affecting Seven more than expected causing him to stay in bed for the entire sixty five hour trip, and with a lot of explanation yet to be done a heavy atmosphere spread through the whole clan.Seven ordered Hir to not tell anyone anything, especially when it came to Iris. As expected, with such a giant battle happening right above their heads the clan members had quite a few questions to ask. Most of them watched their leader lose to a prisoner so they were worried, but their heads were cooled down temporarily when Hi

Sector twenty one, Gorgola's orbit, the Verta clan’s mothership. "Hmm…" Stroking his nonexistent beard, Seven thought to himself. Public speech huh, I don't think I have considered this seriously…"You can spit energy blasts from your mouth yet you can't say a few words in front of people?" Iris being Iris, she started making fun of him the moment he got cold feet.People I won't be killing, that's an important part. Besides, I don't think they have a very positive image of me…In the conference room, which is really just a big empty hall that could fit a lot of people, Seven stood in front of a large crowd.Most of them were the fur covered tiger faced male Herara, looking like what space pirates should look with scary eyes and scars here and there, but with not a single smoker in sight they felt more like a censored version for a kids show.Those were the captains of each ship in the clan's fleet. Two hundred was a big number, some of them brought a few guys from their crews, add

Chapter 10: Lord.
Sector twenty one, the Verta clan’s mothership. "I have finally found you, my lord." Hir said, his head lowered respectfully. "…. Did I fray your brains or something?" Seven replied, one of his brows rising up. "No, I'm in perfect condition both mentally and physically, my lord.""... I don't remember you hitting him on the head. Did you do it while I was knocked out?" Iris said, her head tilted slightly. I… don't know…The fight was done. Rather, if it went any further the ship wouldn't be able to hold. When Hir went down on his knees Seven expected him to admit his defeat, but instead he said something outrageous.‘I have finally found you’… Is he talking about… Seven thought."Nah… there is no way…" Iris added with a weak smile.Seven and Iris already understood what lord he was referring to, and they knew he wasn't exactly wrong. Lilia and Logan were in the dark on this one so they silently waited to see how Seven would react."Anyways, this means you surrender right?" Seven
