There is a little, tiny bit of smut in this chapter. Just to give you all a small taste. There will be way more to come in the very near future. I also apologize for it being so short, but I wanted to put something up for you all. The next chapter will be longer


Kenzie stood beside C'bra and her brother as she watched Viper make his way to the center of the Kehrite. Her grandfather was held up in his room writing away in his journal. Kenzie began to fidget with her fingers as she chewed her gum. She knew this would be nerve racking for her and gum always calmed her, so she'd brought a pack. "C'bra what if he loses?" She asked worried.

C'bra looked down at her and patted her shoulder softly. "We will not lose."

"He said that as well, but you never know what could happen."

"Viper is very skilled. His opponent is but a teenager, and doesn't have the years of experience that Viper does."

"Okay." Kenzie responded a bit more confident.

Clicking drew her full attention and the dojo fell silent. There were a lot of people here. As she watched what was going on in the middle where Viper, the male that she'd challenged, and Viper's uncle stood, she knew they must have been laying down the rules. Uncle stopped talking and the crowd erupted in cheers.

Over the cheering Kenzie heard a loud roar and watched as the young male charged Viper. Kenzie had always heard that it was better to be on offense than the defense. Somehow she knew that wouldn't be the case in this fight.

She watched as Viper easily sidestepped the male and sent his elbow down into the middle of his back. This caused the young male to fall to the floor. Kenzie thought Viper would continue his assault, but he didn't. He took a step back and allowed his opponent to get up.

Again the male charged Viper. Kenzie could see that it was nothing more than anger fueling him. He wasn't using his head. Viper sent another blow to the young male's stomach and something happened to the area between her thighs. She shifted slightly, keeping her eyes on the fight. It was pretty much over by this point.

Kenzie watched as the younger male fell to the floor with a loud thud. It was silence in the dojo for only a moment before cheers could be heard throughout. She watched as Viper looked down at the male, before turning his attention to her. Their eyes locked and Kenzie understood all too well what he was thinking. The challenge had been for a night of mating, and Viper had just won.

The intensity of his gaze bore into Kenzie and she couldn't seem to pull hers away. She should be worried about that, but at the moment she was more worried about the pool of liquid forming in her panties. Again her traitorous body was betraying her. Yes, she would admit to slightly being turned on, but the prospect of doing such a thing, especially with Viper didn't seem right to her. Not because they were from two different species. Though it was a small worry, it wasn't the biggest. Kenzie simply didn't think she could handle what he had to dish out. She'd seen him in all his glory plenty of times.

The after rain, forest smell invaded Kenzie's senses and she felt C'bra look down at her. He chuckled slightly and nudged her gently. "It seems my brother isn't the only one in the mating mood."

Kenzie's attention snapped to C'bra and she lifted an eyebrow. "What do you mean?"

"He craves mating. It is too strong to be missed. Can you not smell it?"

It took her a minute, but Kenzie finally put two and two together. The smell was coming from Viper and from the strength of it he was beyond horny. Well, he was just going to have to stay that way; because there was no way she was going to help him with that.


Viper breathed in his females scent and was sure that he was not the only one that could smell it. By the mating musk he inhaled off of many of the other warriors, he knew he was right. Viper let a loud roar rip from his lips. An open challenge to anyone who thought his mate was available to them. His challenge went unanswered and Viper smirked. Cowards.

Making his way over to where Kenzie stood. He placed his hand on her waist and pulled her to him. "I won."

He watched as she gulped before putting on a smile. "Congratulations."

Viper sighed taking her hand in his. He had told her they would mate only when she wanted it. Even though at this moment her body was betraying her and letting him know what she wanted to, she was not laying claim to it.

He led the way out of the Kehrite and into the corridor. The walk to their quarters was spent in silence. Once there, Viper decided it would be a good time to program her hand into the identifier. When that was complete, they entered the quarters. He watched as the female made her way down the stairs.

Going into the sleeping quarters, Viper made his way into the lavatory. Removing his loin cloth and nets, he sank into his pool.

It was some time later when Viper finally got out. He dried himself before walking back into the sleeping quarters. He grabbed a clean loin cloth and was putting it on when the female walked into the room. She sat on the bed and stared at him.

"Are you alright?"

Viper cocked his head to the side. "Yes. Why would I not be?""Well, because of the fight. You aren't sore or anything?"

"H'ko."

She nodded. "I want to thank you for the room you set up for me."

"You have already thanked me." Viper informed her.

"Lay down." The female stated rising from the bed. Viper studied her for only a moment before doing as she asked. "On your stomach." She stated once he'd lain on his back.

He rolled over, his tresses moving to one side, only to have her sit on his lower back. She ran her hands from his shoulders down to the middle of her back. She then repeated the act adding a bit of pressure. As the action continued Viper began to emit a soft purr.

He enjoyed the feel of the female's hands on him. The soft yet firm touch in which she used. Viper had never had this done, but knew that he would like more of it in the future. All too soon it was over and the female was climbing off of him.

Viper moved onto his back and followed her every move as she made her way to the lavatory. The scent of her arousal lingered in the room even after the door slid shut. He inhaled deeply, enjoying the sweet fragrance.

Exhaling, Viper was determined to show the female just how much she wanted to mate. He would use sexual persuasion if necessary. It seemed to work with his brother's mate and Viper had no doubt that it would work with his. He just had to get around that stubbornness she possessed.

Rising from the bed, Viper prepared to leave the quarters. He had some items he needed to pick up and he needed to talk to Daniel.


"So are we the only humans on the ship?" Colby questioned as he walked along the hall with Jaylee. After the match, instead of going back to their apartments, Jaylee asked him if he wanted to go for a walk with her. She was a cute girl and Colby knew he would be a fool to say no.

"No, there are a few more, but they're females. You and your grandfather are the only male humans on the ship."

"How long have you been here?"

Jay shrugged. "A few years." It was silent for a while. "My mom told me you had a run in with a Young Blood."

"A Young Blood?" Colby asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Yeah. They're warriors, who have been recently blooded."

"Gotcha." Colby stated.

Again silence took over. Colby wasn't sure where they were going, but at long as she knew how to get them back then he wasn't worried about it. The silence drug on and Colby felt the need to say something.

"So why did this Young Blood act that way?"

Jay glanced at him. "You bumped into him. Maybe he saw it as a challenge. Or it could be that he isn't a fan of the human race. There are many of this species who aren't."

"Then why are we roaming the halls?" Colby inquired. He wasn't scared. Far from it. At least not for himself, but she was as small as his sister. Well maybe an inch or two taller.

"It's okay. I have this." She stated holding up the emblem that hung from the chain around her neck.

"Meaning?"

"It's sort of like a family seal. Not too many aboard the ship are crazy enough to mess with C'bra and Viper. Those that do are just that…crazy. So, they see me with this on and they don't bother me. Especially after what happened to the person who messed with my mom." She giggled lightly. "You'll get one too. You all will."

"So what do you do for fun around here?"

"Come on." She stated taking his hand. "I'll show you."


Kenzie paced the living room as she waited for Viper to get back. She didn't know where he'd gone, but he was gone. He hadn't even bothered to tell her that he was leaving or where he was going. This was a new place to her and she didn't appreciate him just leaving her alone.

It was late and she was more than tired, but she knew she wouldn't be able to sleep until he was back. As pathetic as it seemed. It was true. Maybe he wasn't planning on coming back tonight. Maybe he was mad at her for turning down his advances. Kenzie groaned and ran a hand down her face. Where the hell is he?

Making her way through the house or apartment, she wasn't sure which to call it. She walked downstairs and retrieved a piece of gum popping it into her mouth and throwing the wrapper in the small trashcan. She now had the answer to Viper's question. The gum was an excellent stress reliever.

She stared out of the bank of windows at the stars. They were even more beautiful up close than they had been before. She took a seat in the chair and just stared into space. Her mind wandered to what she'd left behind. To what other people in other parts of the world may have been going through. Was it just her poor town that had been targeted and fell victim to those creatures, or was this happening everywhere?

Sighing Kenzie decided to finally finish the book she'd started on Vipers ship. Retrieving it, she made herself comfortable and began to read. She only had a few pages left when she heard a beep and the sliding of a door.

Dropping the book into the chair, Kenzie jogged up the stairs to see Viper walking into the bedroom. She was hot on his tail. "Where have you been?" She questioned as he sat a few packages down on the table beside the bed.

"I had items to retrieve."

"You couldn't have told me you were leaving?"

"You were in the lavatory. I did not see the need to bother you." Viper cocked his head to the side. His face housing what Kenzie assumed was a smirk. "Unless you wanted me to bother you."

Kenzie's face began to heat up. "N-no." She stammered.

"Are you certain?" Viper inquired.

Kenzie didn't answer him. Instead she asked, "What did you have to pick up?"

She watched as Viper picked up two of the three packages. He handed them to her and she sat on the bed. Opening the first one she discovered that it was her bracelet. It didn't look any different, but Kenzie was sure that they had done whatever it was they needed to. The next package contained a necklace in it. Kenzie studied the pendent housed at the end. It was a knife layered on a crescent moon.

"It's beautiful." She whispered as she continued to study it. "Will you put it on me?" She then asked turning her attention to Viper.

"Sei-i."

Kenzie handed the necklace to him and lifted her hair. When he moved behind her she could feel the heat radiating off of his body. His reptilian fingers grazed her shoulders as he brought the chain around and fastened it.

Again Kenzie could smell his arousal. What was it with him and being horny all the damn time? He began to purr and Kenzie clenched her thighs together. The better question was how did he have the ability to make her horny all the damn time?

Kenzie took in his strong scent. Add that to his deep purring and she was becoming a little hazy. Turning to face him she reached out and grabbed one of his dread-like tresses gently. She saw the tops of his tresses flare slightly and his purr deepened to almost a growl.

Before Kenzie knew what was happening she was flat on her back with an eight foot alien hovering over her. To her surprise she wasn't the least bit scared. No, her treacherous body was even more turned on. She knew by the look in his eyes that he knew it too.

Viper locked his mandible around her face gently. His tongue then skimmed over her lips slowly, causing Kenzie to take in a sharp breath.

His tongue was different from hers. Kenzie noted that it was thinner and longer than a human tongue. Yet, it still had the same affect. Arousing her even more. His continuous purr sending shivers through her.

When Viper finally removed his mandibles Kenzie drew in a ragged breath. She reached up and ran the back of her fingers along his right mandible. She then slowly reached for another tress of hair.

"This turns you on." She stated sliding her thumb lightly over the end. She assumed that was the reason he'd gotten so worked up the other times she'd touched them.

"If you are asking if I like it, then yes." Viper replied. His voice sounding somewhat choked.

A normal person would have been repulsed by the prospect of what could happen. But then, Kenzie wasn't a normal person. Knowing that she had this affect on him simply served to heighten her arousal.

"I desire you." Viper stated running a finger along her cheek.

Kenzie wondered how many times he had told a woman he desired her. She then quickly decided that she didn't care. She wanted him too. The problem? She didn't think she would be able to handle him.


The scent of the female hung thick in the air and it was doing nothing, but making Viper's sex organ grow substantially. He felt as if he was being tortured. Punished. He knew that she desired him, but he also knew that as an ooman he had to approach it differently.

A Yautja female, as Viper knew, preferred a fast, hard pounding. A mating that he could not attempt with his mate. She was smaller than the average ooman female and much smaller than a Yautja female.

Viper ran his hand slowly down the center of her chest. Eliciting a small gasp from her. He allowed his hand to continue traveling to the small ooman covering she wore on her lower half. At this point, he expected her to protest. To his surprise and delight she did not.

Viper removed the covering and had to contain himself from releasing a low growl. If he thought her scent was prominent before, it was even more so now. He was a bit frustrated by the fact that she had on yet another covering. This one smaller than the first.

He slid a finger slowly over the clad feminine area and felt the moisture as the female allowed a small noise to leave her lips. Deciding that he enjoyed the sound, Viper repeated the action. This time observing the female's reaction. Her eyes darkened and Viper was very familiar with the look.

Pushing her covering aside he was assaulted full force with the scent of her. Moving the pad of his finger along her feminine area, Viper stroked her intimately. He soon realized the faster his movements were, the more responsive she became.

It wasn't long before his hand was drenched in her essence and she began breathing deeply. Viper inhaled deeply himself. Staring at the female watched as her eyes fluttered closed. He smirked to himself.

Moving her carefully, Viper pulled the bed clothes over her. As much as he desired her, he realized he was not knowledgeable enough to mate with her. He would however begin doing his research when the morning cycle came. He had other duties on the ship, but his brother was handling them for the time being. Until he got his female settled.

Viper settled in bed, slinging his arm gently across her stomach. There was much he had to learn and he knew exactly who to ask.


A/N: Once again I apologize for the wait and the shortness of the chapter, but hey, I gave you minor smut. Don't worry there will be a lot more in the next couple of chapters. Feedback is greatly appreciated.
