Chapter 16: Fenix In a Cage
Disclaimer: I don't own Star Trek. This is for fun. Enjoy and stay ethical.
The morning after, Lore woke up Fenix so she could get ready for 'school' as she called it. Lore was depressed from the night before. He couldn't condone his actions and had a harder time accepting Fenix's forgiveness she bestowed him. He had to learn to move on. And it was hard, everything he's experienced from last night has been conflicting his logical thought processes and wished he didn't feel anything so it would be easier to function. He envied Data for that, he didn't feel tormented by his own insecurities and wrong doings as he did. Fenix looked tired as she ate strawberry shortcake. She didn't act any different than before the incident and treated Lore normally. Lore realized he needed to learn a lot of things still. Fenix couldn't stand how he kept moping around, she knew that he was suffering but she had to leave soon for her studies so she suggested, "Lore, I know you're struggling with your emotions and I'm not really a good counsellor either, I have my own set of baggage I struggle with myself. I was planning on talking to Deanna about my past, like why my biological parents didn't want me and how I feel so out of place. It might be worth a shot to talk to Deanna. She's really nice and means well. I'm not saying tell her your deepest, darkest secrets or anything. It might help organize some of your thoughts is all I'm saying." and hugged Lore from behind. He held her arms that encircled his torso and sighed, "You understand me well. I'll think about it. I dislike talking to people, they irritate me... but I'll think about it." Then she released him, he turned around to caress the side of her face. She smiled and held his hand as she nuzzled into his large palm, she then kissed his inner wrist. That innocent yet very sensual touch affected Lore; he momentarily stopped breathing. He resisted the urge to kiss her, worried of frightening her again. Instead she leaned in and very gently kissed his lovely lips. Then she coyly spoke, "You know, yesterday morning...? That was amazing." then bit his neck and shone him a bright smile before she left the room and headed to Data's quarters for her studies. Lore watched her leave with surprised yellow eyes; her long hair swished behind her. He grinned ear-to-ear and laughed whole-heartedly feeling pure joy.
Fenix reach Data's quarters, he invited her in and started her studies right away. Data was challenged by some of the questions Fenix asked him that no one ever asked; all related to her studies but with a little momentary research he answered all the questions for her. He bombarded her with so much information, Fenix really had to focus probably for the first time in her life. She has always been academically inclined and school work was usually a breeze but what Data was grooming her for was quite overwhelming but she dutifully kept up with his teachings. Six hours flew by like the wind. She was making her way back to room 3650 until she decided to make a pit-stop on the holodeck. Oh. My. God. That was so much information, my brain's gonna blow. But if Data thinks I can succeed, I just need to believe in myself as he does. I appreciate how much Data is teaching me. It's actually pretty fun. But for now, cheesy 90's dance party! Lore can wait a little, knowing him, he'll probably figure out where I'm at. That stalker. But he's my stalker. And I love it!
Meanwhile, Data recollected all the unusual but valid questions Fenix asked and worked out the probabilities of situations on what he taught her. An interesting perspective yet again. It was rather refreshing to be challenged by another with scholastic matters indeed. She has exceeded my initial expectations of her intellect. She will go very far.
While Lore waited for Fenix to return, he paced around the room as he struggled back and forth about talking to counsellor Troi. Bloody hell... I hate people. But Fenix thinks it might help. It'll make her happy if I went. Ugh... In the briefing room she unintentionally insinuated how her mother thought of her a disappointment. Oh, my dear Fenix, I know that feeling all too well; to be a disappointment to your parents. I also know what it's like to be completely alone whilst being surrounded by people, no one ever understands you... or even try to... you were right all along; from the very beginning, you clever girl. We are tragically similar. It most definitely doesn't help not knowing why your biological parents weren't able to raise you or who they were... So many questions left unanswered could drive a person mad or in your case, use your abilities for all the wrong reasons. Hmm, doesn't that sound awfully familiar. Another trait we share! My Fenix... my lovely, lovely Fenix... I know I'm not the man you deserve. But I have been reduced to nothing more than a love-sickened fool. I can't let you go. Ever. I know I've manipulated you from the very beginning, only because I wanted you so badly. And I will always want you; it burns my body every moment. I was so desperate to make you stay by my side. And I know you're too kind to leave me. I know you love me so clearly it hurts. And I'm taking advantage of that... I can't help myself... I keep wanting more and more of you... I could drown in you and still want more. I just hope I can give you enough to keep you close to me. Forever. If Fenix read my thoughts now, she would say, "Then get your shit together! You're a genius for fuck sakes, use that positronic noggin' of yours! You can always better yourself, Ass!" Hahaha... Oh, that foul-mouthed little firefly... She's right. Damn it, she's always right. Why is that? Enough. I'll go talk to 'Deanna' or whatever her name is... With his last thought, he left the room and tracked down Deanna.
Lore left Deanna's office feeling somewhat enlightened. He was walking back to his room and stopped in front of the holodeck, almost like an instinct, he felt Fenix; the door wasn't locked, he proceeded in. Loud catchy music that Fenix called 'cheesy' was thumping, the place was crowded with random strangers all dancing and drinking. He was in search and stalk mode; he was determined to find Fenix here. He saw a glimpse of dark straight hair and leather jacket and grinned. There she is... I thought she didn't like this style of music? That lying little... He watched her hips swaying, her lithe body slithering, her eyes closed and hair mused. He smirked as he watched her from away, leaning on the counter at the bar. She is completely oblivious that her dancing is provocative. Might as well enjoy the show. I've never seen her dance like this. After a while, she commanded the computer for something, he heard her saying 'Add a steel chair, no arm rest in the middle of the room. Now add Lore. Song, After Dark by Tito and Tarantula.' The whole vibe changed; it was very sexual. Without a second thought, he made his way to were 'computer-generated Lore' was and demanded the computer to get rid of him. He was curious to see what would unfold; taking his place seemed like a good idea. He stood there and watched as she came dancing towards him, she grazed her hands sensually around his shoulders and chest as she lured him to sit in the chair.
Then she started to give him a lap-dance. He couldn't contain his excitement; he grinned like a Chesire cat as he became instantly aroused. She touched him, everywhere. Her heated body slithered down his as she guided his hands down her sides and hips. She took her jacket off as she straddled him and met his eyes, teasingly. She suddenly pulled back and commanded the computer to freeze the program. Lore had to stay 'mandroid still' as Fenix called it. Hmm... the advantages of being an android. How long should I keep up this charade? Will she find out? We can cross that bridge when we get to it. Fenix commanded the computer to get rid of everyone except Lore and lock the door. "Continue program." she added. She looked at Lore and unsuspectingly asked, "I want to try something out before committing to the 'real' Lore. I want to do something for him but I'm too scared to do it in real life, so, how real can you be?" Lore smiled and answered, "As real as you want me to be." Then kissed him hungrily as she ground her core into his hardened member making him moan in pleasure. She stripped her shirt off, his eyes widened as she proceeded to take her bra off ever so tantalizingly and guided his hands to her breasts, he delightfully massaged her perky breasts as she threw her head back in pleasure. She pushed his hands down to her hips as she smothered her breasts into his face; he complied by kissing and sucking on them, giving each breast the same treatment as he roamed his hands all over her body, occasionally tweaking her nipple. I know I should've stopped her from the moment she kissed me but... I just don't want to. How could I? when my Goddess is giving me such a wonderous treat. This is too delicious an opportunity to pass up. I'm an android, an android that loves and desires his queen. I've never imagined this is what she would be doing. I thought I'd have a power surge when she started grinding her body against me. She slid back down and resumed kissing him, her hands musing his hair. She pulled back and started undoing his belt. Lore's eyes widened at the sight of her; topless Fenix straddled on his lap, her long hair partially covering her perky breasts whilst trying to undo his pants. Okay, I really need to stop her. This isn't fair to her. She thinks I'm a hologram which is exactly why she's acting like a fearless vixen instead of her usual adorable chaste self. Then stop her. This has already gone too far. Bloody hell! I want her. If I don't stop her, she'll never forgive me after this... She unbuttoned his pants, slid her hand in and wrapped her hot little hand around his rock-solid shaft. Oh, shit... I am a bad, bad mandroid. He closed his eyes shut from feeling extreme pleasure with a dash of guilt, his mouth partially opened, and his breaths became short and erratic, unable to contain his arousal. She momentarily put her hand down her own pants to collect her wetness; her hand was slick from her nectar as she grabbed his member once again and slowly moved her hand up and down his now slick shaft. Oh, Fuck... fuck me... Please just fuck me. I want to be inside you so bad... I'm begging you... Be the first, only and the last woman to fuck me. Oh, Fenix... THIS IS TORTURE! She kissed and nibbled his neck as she continued to jerk him off. Lore threw his head back and whimpered in sheer pleasure. He enjoyed her small innocent hand that explored his cock. Sliding her body down, she ended up on her knees as she looked at his cock with curiosity while she kept pumping him. He looked down at her to see her smiling seductively at him, her eyes looked down at his throbbing member. His hand caressed her face, his thumb on her lips preventing her from continuing any further.
Her purple eyes widen in horror noticing that this was 'her Lore', not just a hologram. It took everything in his power to stop her and confessed, his voice hoarse, "I snuck in at the right time, I got rid of the other 'Lore' and took his place. I never meant for this to escalate this far, but I couldn't help myself. I'm really sorry." Her face flared red with embarrassment, anger and sexual frustration. She then continued sliding her hand up and down his shaft, torturing him once more as he grunted, her face smug as she spoke, "So, did you enjoy that?" She moved back to sitting on his lap, face to face again. He blinked a few times and met her eyes, "Immensely." She then put his manhood back in his pants and closed his fly up. "Good, because that's all your getting." She knew she teased him and started dressing herself. She continued, "I can't believe you did that to me. You deceived me." His eyes held guilt then confusion when she grabbed his hand and pulled him up from the chair and she commanded, "We're going back to our room, this is SO not the place to be right now." And she dragged him out of the holodeck, and lead him straight back to their room. Lore was confused beyond understanding.
They entered the room and she looked at him with fire burning in her eyes. "I should be going postal right now after what you did to me. But I guess it's kinda too late at this point." She scolded, then continued, "To tell you the truth... I'm... horny." Lore quirked an eyebrow and supressed a smile. "When I said I'm a late bloomer, I didn't have any interest in love or sex. When you got me off... that was the first time for me. And it was the bomb. But I don't know how you did it." She finished and her face was hot when she finished, her anger long gone and turned into an embarrassment; she couldn't look at him in the face. Lore smiled, his manhood hardening from hearing her confession, he stalked towards her until her back was against the wall, unable to escape. He lifted her delicate chin with his fingers; forcing her to look at him face to face as he spoke, "You won't ever need to pleasure yourself, my sweet, innocent little Fenix, because I'm here and I can make you feel euphoria like nothing else in existence, it'll be even sweeter than your Celestial Snow and more addictive than the holodeck." and he kissed her all too tenderly for what he was saying. Then he held her hand, sliding it over his body, down over his bulge and suggestively added, "Have me whenever you like, every part of me is yours. All you have to say is, 'Lore, pleasure me, please?' with that sweet voice of yours." And he slipped a finger in her hot little mouth admiring her full lips and the feel of her tongue, imagining how incredible it would have felt to have his cock in her hot mouth. He slipped his finger out of her mouth and licked it clean. Fenix stood frozen yet her body was on fire. He lovingly held her in his arms and nuzzled his face into her hair inhaling her sweet scent and whispered in her ear, "Hmm... It seems that I HAVE become your pleasure android after all. Don't worry, it was on my own accord, I won't repeatedly tear off all your limbs and count how many times you can regenerate." Fenix scowled remembering him saying that when she fixed his emotion programming. He chuckled and kissed her seductively as he undid her pants, snaked his hand in and began to pleasure her with his skilled long fingers.
Deanna thought about her session with Lore earlier. A headache was rearing its ugly head as she pinched her bridge. Oh my gosh... that man? Android? He's a handful, that one. I sense his emotions so strongly it overpowers my own thoughts at times. I don't blame him for all his insecurities after his father threw him away and moved on to building Data instead of fixing him. Anyone would've felt alienated, unloved and incompetent. Data was their father's favourite, that sort of parenting has always led to complications for the unchosen offspring, more so for a highly intelligent android given advanced emotional programming. Wait a minute, androids are made to be logical, but emotions are never logical. The two would clash intensely, no wonder so much went wrong for Lore... His narcissism and his superiority complex became his shields. I can see why he's extremely attached to Fenix. She is the one good thing he's ever had. She was the first person to give him a second chance at life, fix him and basically upgrade him without wanting anything back from him other than a possible friendship. He sees her as a goddess because of her unique abilities that exceeds every humanoid being, in strength, speed, regeneration, and in intellect. To him, he sees himself as a god and Fenix is his goddess; he is the worthy one to have her. She is very warm, and full of love and life even with the scars she tries to hide. She loves him so much. It's pure, profound love. SHE is his addiction; he fiercely wants her in every single way. As long as he works on eliminating his insecurities, his love for Fenix won't become twisted into obsession any more than it already has. If he doesn't, he's going to drive himself crazy and take down Fenix with him. She loves him too much and is too kind to even think of leaving him. She would hold onto him as he jumped off a cliff, in a sense. I pray that he understands that their relationship could take a very dark turn if he doesn't change his ways, for Fenix's sake. She's still so young. I can see why she's with him, too. She has her own issues, being the only human with her abilities would have its tolls on her. She would feel like an outcast. They're in the same boat together and Q is right, the only one able to fully satisfy her would be Lore because of his strength and durability... strength of an android... but Data is also an android. That's it! No wonder Lore's been hostile towards Data. He sees him as a threat, the only other competition that could challenge him if he wanted to. He's scared of losing Fenix to him it's eating him like cancer. His feelings of inadequacy caused by his father has been reignited by Data again. Lore... the more you try to put Fenix in a cage, the more likely she'll instinctively try to fly away... right into Data's arms.
