"Balem..." I began.

"What can I do?"

His hazel eyes locked on mine. "Nothing. There's nothing you can do. Just go."

I turned to leave.

"Unless-" Balem started.

I turned back around.

When I saw the look in his eyes I knew I was in trouble.

"You are willing to give yourself to me."

I was horrified that he would suggest such things. A look of disgust lined my features.

Balem sighed, sensing my incoming answer. "Very well, Infinity. I shall harvest Earth to replace the Regenex that you destroyed today."

"But that's not fair!" I retorted. "You can't destroy my home because I knocked over some canisters!"

He sighed again. "It is a just punishment for defying me. Either you give your powers to me and allow me to use that as means to reciprocate what you have taken from me, or you watch as your planet is harvested to fuel my needs."

"Oh..." I trailed off. "I thought you meant something else."

Balem seemed confused. "And what exactly did you think I meant, Infinity?"

I bit my lip. "I thought you meant having sex with you."

A soft smirk formed against the primary's lips as he folded his hands ever so slightly across his back. "That can be arranged as well."
