Hey there everyone! Sorry for the late update, I've been busy moving and have a new job to keep me busy plus I wasn't feeling inspired. I did read some of the other Khan/Nyota fanfiction though and it revved me back up! I can't really promise un update schedule anymore but I will try my best to do at least once a month. And as much as I love your comments that keep me going let me make one thing clear. I WILL NOT TOLERATE FLAMMING AND NON CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM. If you don't like how I write Khan or Nyota in this fanfiction FEEL FREE TO WRITE YOUR OWN. But unless you have the balls and take the time out of your life to do so, don't come around spewing out how you think I need to be writing my story. I know most of you are lovely and support me and keep me going but for those of you are just here to troll or make yourself feel superior, please leave. That all being said most of you are lovely so PLEASE COMMENT it really does inspire me. Not without further ado! Here's the new chapter! :D

As they walked back to her quarters they were silent. They did not hold hands or engage in affection, and Khan surprisingly was not wearing his trademark smug grin. The feelings between them were evident, satisfaction, and curiosity. While they did not fully do the deed both of them were satisfied with dragging things out. The slow burn would consume them both and they enjoyed it. As they walked into the lift Nyota felt some of her old self-doubt crept into her, did he find her promiscuous? Would he make snide comments in front of the crew and embarrass her? Suddenly she was not as self-assured as she had been; she wondered if she was to say anything to him.

"So" she began to speak as she turned to him "I am curious as to your opinion of me after what just happened"

Khan raised an eyebrow and looked at her amusedly "The Nyota is what I would at the very least call a very intimate encounter" she chuckled nervously at the remark as he continued "My opinion of your intelligence and beauty have not changed, my opinion of your personality has improved, and I still find myself fantasizing about how I will have you."

She felt a little more confident after his response and responding with a teasing flirtation in kind.

"How you will have me?" She asked with a grin "A little narcissistic aren't we? Who says I won't change my mind"

She felt herself slammed into the lift wall as Khan pressed up against her and ground his erection into her. He pulled back her hair and whispered in his ear as he spoke.

"I will have you Nyota, rest assured" he purred as his nose down from her ear to her collar.

She quickly twisted away before he opened his mouth to her collar. He looked at her slightly impressed "I was going to mark you, you are correct in your assumption. But be careful Nyota, if you are not, this whole crew will know you are mine."

It could not be denied that Khan would always be his snarky, possessive, and domineering self but Nyota found herself not minding as she thought she would. She was excited at the idea of a challenge.

As the came upon her door they shared one more heated look.

"Tomorrow Nyota" Khan rasped as he walked away.

Nyota smiled as she entered into her room.

As she made her way to her bed she had to admit to herself, she was looking forward to tomorrow.
