Love Me Dead

*Smut Warning this chapter*

AN: I want to thank everyone for their support. I'm on some new medication and am feeling much better. Here's the chapter I had, finally corrected and here for you to read. Will finish correcting the next one and finish the 9th chapter and make it available soon.

The stars are there on this chapter to indicate there are sexual themes. If you don't want to read the sexual stuff, I put a warning at the start and end of the section so you can skip through it.

I got the description of Lore's body based upon the DataLore episode (Am I the only one that wonders where Lore's junk is being kept in this pic and thinks 'Dick in a box') I don't think they'd thought fangirls would take the time to piece him together in their mind. Course I've taken some artistic license- I figure Noonien Soong would have wanted to make him as realistic and attractive as possible.

I suspect my romance novel marathon this week is greatly affecting my writing. Is that a good thing or a bad thing? Maybe I'm just a horny bastard. Also, I am aware that Frea and Lore don't exactly have a healthy relationship. These past chapters have been a build up to the actual story. Your patience has been great.

Chapter Seven "Carry On"

Lore gaze drifted to his silent companion. Frea barely spoken to him since they'd left hurriedly and just barely escaped capture. Since then, whenever she had spoken, it was short dull sentences. But it was better then the unnerving silence, which he wasn't use to, but what was worst was that she'd pulled away every time he'd attempted to kiss her and shied away from his touch.

"I know who reported us." Lore offered; they both knew, but it was conversation to fill the silence.

"Yeah" Frea replied softly. Lore's cheek twitched and his jaw ground a little at her short reply as her finger scratched along the console absentmindedly, her eyes turned downward blankly. Her silence had gone from annoying to just plain pissing him off.

"The Ferengi; He must have called the Federation police...probably once he saw the bill is my guess, which is most likely why our ship was fixed on time for us to escape."

"Uh-huh" Frea mumbled. Lore's cheek flinched again but he forced a pleasant tone.

"We probably got away because they didn't bother putting a tracker on us. I haven't seen any ships following us. They probably assumed we wouldn't get away. They were quite disorganized in my opinion. Those feds have such huge egos." Lore chuckled, then immediately scowled when Frea said nothing and made no motion she'd heard him.

"Will you talk to me dammit!" Lore suddenly shouted and immediately regretted it when Frea jumped and flinched in surprise. Lore's gazes soften immediately at having scared her and he looked away in embarrassment.

"I-I'm sorry" Lore murmured

Standing up and shooting a furious look in his direction, and giving a kick to her chair for good measure before moving off and into the back of the ship.

Lore growled under his breath, burying his face in his palms and rubbing his brow. True he didn't have a headache, he wasn't capable of it, but his all too human programming made it a natural gesture.

Clicking several controls to set the ship on manual for awhile, he then depressively followed her into the back of the ship; now regretting having to deal with the consequences of his behavior. Lore hated being chastised for his behavior and he especially hated being made to feel bad. His temper often got the best of him.

"Frea? Freeea?" Lore singsonged pleasantly, hoping Frea would be able to read the apologetic tone in his voice and save him from what he was sure was an oncoming argument of epic proportions.

Trudging through the ship: through the empty living room and kitchen, past the med lab and towards the bedrooms. Giving a hesitant peek into her bedroom like a nervous animal and seeing her seated on her bed with her back to him. Lore took a deep breath, and then strutted in with confidence.

"Go away. I don't want to see you right now" Frea said firmly- seeing him in her peripheral, but she didn't turn around from her seat on her bed. She seemed to be distracting herself with organizing something on her antique tricorder and didn't pay him any mind. Organization, as Lore had learned, was her coping skill- a useful, almost Zen task she used to keep her emotions in check.

"I can stand behind you." Lore chipped humorously, then giving a sigh knowing he'd have to deal with this one way or another. "Frea I..." Lore groaned silently to himself in self pity.

Frea spun around suddenly in his direction "Shut up!" Lore blinked in surprise.

Lore hadn't meant to snap at her first of all, but he couldn't stand unnerving silences and he did have a furious temper. It had always been a problem with his parents, especially his mother, who had been terrified of it.

"I don't know why you're angry with me?" Lore's brows creased in confusion.

"Don't play dumb Lore!" Frea's eyes were cold.

"I'm not; I don't know why you're angry! I'm not a bloody mind reader and you women seem to have a knack for irrational anger!" Lore clenched his fist and then gave a ragged deep breath and then breathing out suddenly. Forcing a smile and attempting to stay calm.

"Irrational? You think my anger is irrational?" Frea glared, her jaw clenched, then turning away to ignore him yet again.

"I meant. You've been ignoring me since we escaped. I apologize for yelling- and yelling again-and that last time as well. Ok, Well, you get the point." Waving his hand in the air flippantly and giving a slight chuckle. "You get the picture."

Cocking his head in and grinning "Better yet my love. I'm just going to apologize right here and now for everything I've ever done wrong to you to make you angry, or feel ever insulted." Chuckling lightly and giving his best charming smile he could muster.

"So is that how you handle your apologies. Just throw everything against a wall and hope it sticks." Frea commented, a masked look to her face.

"Works with spaghetti" Lore grinned attempting to lighten her mood and but she didn't even blink. Lore sighed dramatically, walking over and heaving himself dramatically upon her bed with a giant thump.

"I'm sorry" Leaning over and cuddling into her back playfully. Rubbing his face into her side "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry" Frea flinched away.

"Stop it! Go away!"

Lore halted and looked at her in confusion. True, he had emotions, but he really didn't have much idea as to how to apologize to people. He didn't have much practice saying he was sorry since he rarely thought that people deserve it nor would his arrogance allow the utterance of the words. Usually a playful nature worked to lighten her mood and raise her spirits; and Lore had hoped that his humor would have put him back in her good books.

"You can't take me seriously can you?" Frea gave him a hurt expression and he frowned.

"I take you seriously. I just don't know why you're upset."

A look of realization dawned on her features and she stared at him. "You're not joking; you really have no clue as to why I've been upset? I thought you were simply avoiding the subject but you have no clue, do you?" Frea's expression turned to what one might akin to pity.

Lore eyes looked away in shame; he'd seen this look before. He knew it well and hated it every time. The look when people gave up on him; realized he was just a machine, an automaton with no soul- The poor puppet that didn't know any better.

Frea's gaze softened "That poor boy- he wasn't even a threat and you killed him."

He winced at the next expectant word from her lips 'Murderer, but they never came.

"He was an innocent"

"There's no such thing as an innocent person- everyone has sins. He could have died 90yrs in the future or the next day without any action from me. Either way, he would have died. I did it to protect you and to protect us. I would kill anyone who wished to harm you." Lore gritted

"You scare me sometimes." Frea mumbled softly, immediately regretting she said so as she could practically see his heart breaking.

Lore felt no shame, not for the man child; but her disapproval hurt him far more, and her fear devastated him. He didn't want her to be afraid of him like everyone else. Lore wanted her to have complete trust in him, to feel safe, to submit to his care and most of all to love him.

"You wanted me to kill the Ferengi" Lore offered softly.

"I didn't think you would even if I had asked, but the child wasn't a threat. The boy was terrified of you and he was weak. He didn't even see it coming; he didn't have a chance- especially not against you." Frea hissed. Something about seeing the young officer and his fear had reminded her of when she was young and when she had been the prey of larger, more aggressive men.

"My love, I'm sorry. I didn't know that bothered you. Would you preferred he'd seen it coming?" Lore's face was still sad at her anger, but he was still confused as to her point. Frea's mouth thinned in disapproval and looked away.

Lore knew he could argue about this all day, he argued with everyone else. His mother had once said he'd outlive god just so he could have the final word. Lore felt no emotion for that man-child, and the boy was more armed than them.

The young officer could have fired and killed her, and he would have been commended for a job well done from his fellow Starfleet officers. In fact, Lore had hoped Frea would have commended him on protecting her and eliminating a witness to there escape.

Lore wasn't sorry and he had thoroughly enjoyed crushing the young officer's throat and feeling the vertebra crackle under his fingers. But, Lore wanted Frea's love above all else, and her affection, and for that, he would lie to her and admit error. Lore promised himself he would never kill another person out of pleasure in front of her again- without permission.

"I would never harm you, love. I'm sorry. In time, I hope you can forgive me." Lore realized how fake that sounded, but he did want her forgiveness, and he would keep her safe but he did not feel shame for what he did and his conscience didn't feel the slightest unease.

Lore could see her face soften and he felt his emotions perk excitedly at seeing her anger and sadness ease. What shame was there in lying if it had a positive outcome?

Setting a hand lightly against his face and then running her finger gently through his hair. Looking at his warm, golden eyes, she could almost forget what he was capable of.

"I care for you. I really do and I'm sure that you really do love me." Lore smiled widely and an eager look flashed in his eyes.

"Will you practice some restraint for me" Frea murmured. Part of her yelled that she was being an idiot; but she was an idiot in love and wasn't so ready to give Lore up.

"Absolutely!" Lore gave a cocky grin as he crawled over and lay on his back, putting his head on her lap. "Can you forgive me even though I don't deserve it- because I'm a ravishingly, handsome idiot."

"I forgive you, my idiot" Frea displayed no emotion as she pet his hair, leaning down to kiss his forehead and she felt him sigh blissfully.

Lore closed his eyes, allowing her to pet his hair. "I will always protect you and know, I would do anything for you." and he smiled gently.

Frea's eyes snapped down at him, no longer feeling the anger she had, but an unusual emotion within her. It was hard for her to recognize this new budding feeling, but it she supposed this is what power felt like- power and lust.


Frea couldn't sleep, a small part of her regretted her decision; the decision not to run far away from him, and the slight shame she felt for forgiving him so easily.

However, there was the largest part of her that loved him more than she ever thought was possible and didn't want to leave. She refused to stray from him because of her foolish affection.

Frea glanced over at him where he slept next to her; Her protector and guardian- her object of affection.

Frea wanted to tell him how much she loved him, how happy he made her and that she wanted to be with him for the rest of her life. Had Lore been human, she would have wanted to get married, have a home with many children with him; but she would settle for just living a good, long life with him.

Frea had never experienced love, and had now found herself the subject of loyal and passionate devotion. A man she knew would do anything she asked just to please her. A secret, deep, dark part of her was excited by the knowledge that he would kill for her. That sort of power aroused her deeply even though she knew it to be wrong and disturbed her morally.

She loved and was loved in return and his love and devotion was so, that he was destroy anyone that wronged her to make her happy.

Frea gasped when arousal bloomed within her at this knowledge, just as it had earlier. Why shouldn't she let him kill those that meant her harm, he was merely looking out for her and fighting for her. Something no one had ever done. Why should she protect a universe that never protected her? Those times she cried for help, to me held and rescued from suffering, no one came- except Lore. Wonderful, beautiful, gentle, Lore- she was sure everyone would laugh at her for using those words to describe him, but every one of those words was true to her.

She knew that if she called, he would fight forever just to save her, and this set her heart ablaze with more love and lust for him. Frea knew it was wrong, but she didn't care as long as she had Lore- and Lore seemed more than content to have her- despite her flaws.

Frea lay her head on his chest feeling the gentle rise and fall and the soft patter of his so real; yet artificial, heart. Lore's arms wrapped around her tighter; comforting her and protecting her as he slept.


(Smut warning)

Frea slipped a hand quietly under his t-shirt, laying her hand against the hot skin of his stomach and stroking her fingers lazily against the hard, synthetic muscles of his abdomen- feeling them contract to her touch and Lore moaned softly in his sleep. His sigh of enjoyment encouraged her to tease him further as she traced a finger along the light trail of hair below his belly button and to the edge of where it disappeared into the hem of his pants.

Tracing her finger along the waist of his night pants before dipping her finger tips down just below the hem to barely graze the flesh at his waist, marveling at how the tight ab muscles formed into a tantalizing crease from his hip bones. Frea smiled, enjoying the soft sounds he made at her touch. Touches which she hadn't decided to pursue further until she'd excited such enjoyable responses from him. Feeling bold, she bent down to lap her tongue along the smooth skin she had just caressed, then blowing a cool breath along the wet skin and watching at the skin rippled with gooseflesh. Taking that opportunity to arch down and nip the flesh tenderly with her teeth.

Frea gasped in delighted surprise when his strong arms suddenly grasped her bottom and pulled her flush against him, rolling them over and then pressing her firmly into the mattress. Leaning over her, drawing near to her face, she found his aroused gold eyes staring at her- she smiled.

"What are you playing at girl? Do you set out to drive me mad with lust until I cannot control myself and I bury myself into you?" Lore whispered into her neck huskily.

"You know I wouldn't disapprove of such actions." Frea could help but smile at his words.

"Do you know how hard it is to control myself around you?" Lore grunted as she ran a hand down his spine.

"You know very well I've wanted you too for some time now." Frea chuckled

"You know what I want from you first" Lore growled "I want to drive you mad for a change and see how you like it?" Frea smiled widely at this and he smirked at her.

"Awfully big talk for an android" She egged him on and smirked in triumph when he kissed her passionately and ground himself against her. Frea groaned and gasped in surprise when he abruptly took hold of both her wrists in his hands and forced them above her in his steely grasp. He quickly amended the aggressive action by laying kisses along her face.

"Don't touch" his voice heavy and lustful. Frea yelped in surprise and anticipation as he brought his hands firmly under her thighs and swiftly pulling her down towards him so she was prone beneath him as he settled himself between her thighs. Frea's impassioned noises were quickly caught by his kisses on her as he nibbled and plunged his tongue into the depths of her mouth. How he managed to inflame her body with lust with just the thought of his devotion and his kiss, it was dizzying.

Frea hadn't realized she'd grabbed a fistful of his hair, using it to leverage him closer to her before she recognized his amused voice chastising her not to touch and placing her hands back above her head. She growled; he was planning to torture her by not allowing her to touch him- he was such a vengeful ass.

In truth, Lore forbade her touch knowing it would drive him mad and cause him to forget himself. It would only take a gentle nudge from her to urge his programming to press her into the mattress and make love to her, and he would not do that until she admitted her feelings for him aloud.

Grinding his hard, bulge against her core through her panties and released of scream of ecstasy from her lips.

Clenching her hands into the pillow above her and biting her lip as she felt his hand travel across her stomach and to the hem of her underware, mimicking touch for touch what she had done to him and gritting her teeth when she heard him chuckle wickedly. Frea looked down at him, meeting his golden eyed gaze. How was it possible for a machine to have such passion and love in his eyes as he looked at her unblinking and nipping at the skin on her stomach.

"Stop tormenting me"

Lore smiled gently, taking one last nuzzle against her stomach and breathing in a deep breath in what she could only describe as looking as if he were in ecstasy of her scent before then quickly covering her body with his own muscular form again. Disobeying his order not to touch she wrapped her arms around him, digging her fingernails into his arm and the rippling muscles of his defined back.

Pulling at the neck of his shirt, kissing his neck and nipping him on the crook of his shoulder. Frea groaned lewdly when she felt one of his hands travel down, and toying long slender fingers around the soft skin of her inner thighs. Her legs opened farther, without resistance to him and she arched against him begging for more, but he seemed unwilling to comply.

Kissing him hungrily as felt his finger brushed barely against the dampness in her panties and she felt him smile against her lips arrogantly.

"Please" Frea whispered and gave a nip to his bottom lip causing him to groan. She gasped in excited when she felt his wandering fingers finally stroke were she needed them most; Gracing tenderly along her slit through her underwear. Bucking up, Lore groaned and gritted his teeth in a hiss as she brushed against his own hard, straining arousal. Finally having enough of his teasing, she felt him push her underwear aside, taking that opportunity to finally stroke his hands against her. Finding the center of nerves and stroking with long, expert strokes.

"Does this please you?" Lore's voice was forced and ragged and Frea could tell it was taking all his strength to keep himself contained.

"Yesss" Drawn out to him in a long, prurient groan.

Frea held her breath, her legs tensed, as he stroked rabid butterfly touches against her bundle of nerves. Again he traced down, and then his fingertip pressed gently against the deepest, most hidden part of her. Lore played her in short, pressing strokes until her flesh parted around his fingertip and her own moistness slicked his movement. Frea heard his breathing grow heavier and felt the beating of her own heart strong in her chest. She lifted her hips, raising herself to his hand, and felt the pressure of his whole palm over her. His fingertip against her opening pressed inward, and she arched her back in pleasure as she felt him parting her, finding his way inside.

"Lore" she whispered, grasping at his shirt with one hand desperately and clawing at his shoulder with the other.

His mouth came down on her breast, biting her nipple through her thin night shirt before pulling her shirt up and drawing it into his mouth and playing it with his tongue and then doing the same to other. Lore slid his fingers deeper, hitting a hidden part of her that made her whimper for him to take mercy on her and stroking it over and over till she wailed.

Lore kissed the side of her neck, hand running over her breasts and belly, touching her skin and exploring her as he'd long wanted to do. Lore's long skillful fingers continued to slide inside her in a gentle rhythm, and his thumb caressed her clit as she shuddered against his touch, wishing for more. Shocks of pleasure coursed through her and she felt herself being brought so easily towards her orgasm.

"Please Lore" Frea begged him and she met his hazy eyes, darkened with passion. He said nothing and he didn't appear as if he was in complete control of himself as he quickly complied and hastened his movements inside her. Thrusting another finger inside her tightness and plunging them into her, spurred on faster by her pants of enjoyment.

Lore could barely think a coherent thought as he was so drawn into her passion and the pure eroticism of what he was doing. The pride and lust inside him that he was pleasing her so and had created the wanton shrieks of enjoyment as he stroked her tight passage; feeling her spasm and contract tightly around his fingers. She was going to cum soon and oh how he wished he was inside her for her first orgasm with him. But he would wait and wouldn't rush; he could wait a little longer before taking her properly- a little more time was nothing compared to the lifetime they'd have together and he had no intention of having there first time together to be a rushed experience because he was so overcome with lust he couldn't control himself.

A few more movements and a curl of his finger against the sensitive spot inside her and he felt her cry out loudly, spasming hard and clenching his fingers inside her. Her orgasm shook her and Lore wished his cock had been inside- or at the very least, his tongue.

Enjoying the delicious contraction of her internal muscles, He nearly came himself with the thought of what it would feel like to have her clench so violently against his thick length.

It was several minutes before she calmed, his fingers still remained inside her, no longer clenched inside tightly but enjoying the rippling after waves and twitches of her orgasm. Frea whimpering sobs and heavy breaths as she came down from her peak and it made his hard erection twitch in anticipation.

Neither of them spoke, but Frea groan sadly as she felt his delightful fingers pull from her warmth; slick with her wetness.

Lore gritted his teeth, bringing his hands up and clenching her hips desperately as if trying to calm himself and keep himself from removing his pants and plunging his dick into her.

Frea leaned up, taking his face between her hands, enamored with him beyond words. She'd never known pleasure like that could exist and see could see the battle he was going through to silence the lust inside him.

"Let me please you now." Kissing his face and lips gently and his breath hitched and his grip on her waist tightened. That was not what he wanted to hear when he was trying to gain control of himself and it took all he could not to immediately comply.

"Not yet- soon, but not yet. Give me a few minutes and I will be fine. I wanted just to please you."

His words touched her, no one had ever concerned themselves with just pleasing her and his selflessness made her angry that he wouldn't allow her to do the same for him.

"Why do you deny me doing the same for you." Frea offered and he shook his head. Lore was stubborn and she could see he was going to be illogically firm on his position not to go any further.

"Lay down and let me hold you then" Frea pulled him down towards the mattress and he complied without protest; she felt drowsy and sleepy and enjoyed the feel of him wrapped in her arms. Laying his head into the crook of her neck and letting out a sigh as he held her close. Frea could feel his large, bulge pressed against her leg as she willed herself to ignore it. She could tell he was large and knowing he was still hard made it difficult for her not to fantasize about taking him in her mouth. The thought made her wet thinking about it and she look forward to the day when she'd be able to please him in such a manner.

(Smut Warning over)


Frea groaned softly, swatting away the source of her irritation. Lore gave her another nudge, before settling on kissing the back of her neck. "Get up".

"Go away." Grumbling and smacking his hand away which had started fondling her bottom, then giving it a gentle smack. Shaking her gently to wake her, his insistence was wearing on her tired brain.

"Get up. It's important."

Frea sighed into the soft pillow. She wasn't a morning person and Lore knew better then to wake her before she was ready.

"What!" Frea growled- but it came out more of a whine.

"Get up and get dressed- Met me in the control room."

Frea blurry eyes glared at him as he walked out of the room. Sighing and laying her head back down.

"Up!"

Frea's head popped up "I'm up-I'm up!" wiping her fingers to get the sleep out of her eyes she grumbled curses under her breath.

Lore sat in his pilot's seat quietly pushing controls when Frea came in. Half dressed in her robe and mismatched in clean day shirt and last nights panties- seeing them made him smile to himself. She shuffled across the metal grated floor carrying a cup of coffee, sitting in her seat next to him. Lore had meant for her to get fully dressed but wasn't about to force the matter right now in such a serious situation. Giving a turn of her head she squinted her tired eyes. Most of the power was low and the room darkened but she said nothing.

"What's so important you had to drag me out of bed at-" Frea took a sip of her coffee and looked at the chronometer "The butt crack of morning?"

Lore's expression was calm and serious. He kept pressing buttons and adjusting the setting like he did every morning when they woke up. "That expression only works on a planet with a sun, not in space darling. Try to be quiet if you can."

"I'm not awake enough to tolerate your sassing? What's so important you needed me?" Frea smiled in amusement.

"We might not be able to leave." Lore didn't look at her but continued to look straight ahead.

Frea frowned then gapped as suddenly as he pointed outward and Frea nearly dropped her cup in surprise. "Holy-" she whispered in awe as several police ships cruised nearby, lingering in a slow dragging orbit.

"I've kept the ship energy on emergency impulse and we've been hiding in Taurus IV's ring, which seems to have left us undetected to them for now. Obviously they aren't on pinpoint scanners and they assume us as the same energy that is being discharged from the area- Just another drifting object."

"Are-are they after us?" Frea mumbled in surprise, helping Lore with the controls to adjust they're orbit next to a large asteroid and allowing it to pull them into orbit before shutting down the ships systems.

"I suspect if they are after us, they followed the residual energy from the warp engines. I checked the ship for a tracking device and found none. Hopefully we can wait them out, but if they're as persistent as I know them to be, we might be here for a couple days. We'll have to cut down to the bare minimum of energy reserves. I doubt they believe we're in the area, perhaps they are merely reorganizing themselves or they are looking for someone else, but I'm sure they wouldn't take advantage of arresting us if they knew we were here."

Frea's brows creased nervously and her lips thinned. "I suppose all we can do now is wait."
