When Weyland's voice calls from the device and through her ear, Maria had to hold it the shock and pain that traveled from her head, causing her to feel dizzy before moving into her chest and making it feel like an elephant was sitting on her chest. She couldn't believe that he was alive. After hearing that the facility was destroyed, she thought that it would be the end of Weyland and that he wouldn't bother her ever again. But her nightmares came back with a vengeance.
Not wanting to give him the satisfaction, Maria keeps her emotions in check and made sure she pulled away when she felt she needed to take a breath to calm herself down.
"Weyland . . ."
Maria seethes at the name but Weyland starts to chuckle and it started a spark of rage in her this time. "It's nice of you to answer my call. I thought I would be sent to voicemail but you are unexpected in many ways."
"Huh. I was hoping you were down in the ground as a feast for the pests."
"Aw, aw, aw. Is that any way to speak to a dear friend?"
Maria growls. "You are no friend of mine. You're barely considered a human being in my books."
This time, Weyland began to laugh in the device and it only fueled the fire in her that was slowly turning into rage. Still, she kept herself as calm as possible, determined to find out what Weyland wants. Weyland stops and silence follows suit, making it eerily terrifying for Maria. Eventually, she breaks it apart first.
"Why have you contacted me?"
Maria didn't hear anything from the device other than the shallow breathing coming from Weyland no doubt. She hears steps in the device and believes that Weyland is not alone. Waiting for a painstakingly long time, Weyland finally speaks.
"I told you that I needed you to cooperate with us. We need to find the Predators and I know you are with them."
Maria's eyebrows tighten together in confusion. How would he know where she was at the present time? She decides to call his bluff. "You have no idea where I am. As far as anyone is concerned, I might be in Tahiti right now, enjoying a nice ocean breeze and thinking of ways to kill you."
Again, Weyland chuckles and it started to tick Maria off in a bad way. "I have my resources. For instance, the device you're holding right now has a locator on it. From what I can see, you're on the way towards the Messier 63 on a ship no doubt."
When she heard how almost precise Weyland was on their location, her whole body freezes in panic. He does know where she was . . . It was only a while back that Za'taan informed her that they were on the Uhri Clan's ship heading to a galaxy that she had almost forgotten about at the time. She did hear something about '63' and to hear almost the same thing with Weyland, it shook her to the core. Enough that she started to stutter in disbelief and Weyland, sensing the doubt in her, huffed as if he already won the battle.
"You shouldn't be surprised. I'm very resourceful and the chip in Ana's head works perfectly as a beacon for us. Smart move, wouldn't you say?"
Walter? Maria snaps out of it when she heard that statement. She should have never trusted Walter or let him get close to her enough to almost be called a friend. She grinds her teeth and leans her mouth closer to the mouthpiece of the device, breathing heavily into it.
"Walter was in on this as well?"
She heard Weyland huff. "In a way. I control his functions whether he wants to or not. I assumed he already told you this a while ago or else I would have thought he was getting stupid."
Maria cursed herself inside when she remembered Walter saying something like that when they first talk to each other before their grand escape. Weyland seems to be around her all the time and there's nothing Maria can do to escape it. She grinds her teeth together in frustration.
"It doesn't matter anyway. The deal I offered to you back at the facility remains the same. Cooperate and Ana will be spared."
Maria was outright confused. How can he do anything at this point? She chuckles into the device to hide her uncertainty but also because she knows something he may have forgotten. "Sorry to burst your bubble but if you haven't figured it out, the master control is with us, asshole."
There was silence after that and Maria felt confident that she had Weyland right where she wanted him. There's no way he can do anything now and she hopes that it would be the end. But those hopes were soon dashed when Weyland's voice calls with such confidence, not something she would have expected.
"Oh, Maria. Think you are so clever but I'm one step ahead of you."
Maria hears clicking sounds from the device that lasted for a few seconds until a scream echoes out. She pulls the device from her wear and looks towards where the sound came from. It sounded very familiar and close since the scream came from outside of the room. It took Maria a moment before she realized what it was. She turns back to the device with rage.
"What have you done to Ana!?"
Again, she hears Weyland chuckles in triumph, which made her want to punch him hard in the face if he was physically here. "I only started up the chip in her head. I knew you would try taking the master control so I had a backup one in case something like this happens."
When she heard those words, Maria's world starts to crumble. He's got the device and now can torture her best friend . . . All because he wants anything to do with Yautjas? She swallows and her breathing picks up from her heart beginning to drop inside her chest. The silence was a confirmation to Weyland to continue.
"So, to avoid anymore pain, all you have to do is keep this device with you at all times. And don't tell anyone about this. Not even that lover of yours And if you think we can't see what you're doing, well . . . I'll make sure you get the message. Like this . . ."
As soon as he finished, the device crackles and tells Maria that he hung up. But it follows with yet another scream that sent chills down her spine. Without hesitation, she puts the device on the side of her hip and rushes out of the room. Although Maria didn't know where to start looking, she couldn't wait anymore. She needed to find Ana and make sure she's okay.
Going down the hallway and avoiding the stares from other Yautjas, she sprints through in the possible direction the scream came. She pushes her legs fast to the point that her muscles started to burn and twist painfully. She ignored it and went faster until she realized that she got to the end of the hallway and to a closed door. She was about to slam into it in the hopes of opening it until she felt an arm pull one of her arms backward to stop her. Instinctually, she tightened one hand into a fist and swung around to release her from her unknown assailant. However, she stopped when she saw that it was Walter who grabbed her, looking a bit shocked.
"Walter?"
"Easy, Maria. Sorry, I scared you but you looked like you were in a hurry. What's wrong?"
Maria's mind pauses for a second until she remembered what she was doing. She tries to rip her arm out of Walter's grip but being synthetic, it was difficult but she tried anyway.
"Let me go, Walter! I need to get to Ana!"
"I know!"
She freezes right after that with her eyes widened in shock. "How . . .?"
"I was on my way to the healers. Got a call from Raith that Ana was in pain all of a sudden. They think it might be the device acting up again."
Walter's words were a confirmation to Maria that Weyland wasn't joking. He did have control over the chip and it caused her heart to break apart in fear. The urge to say something to Weyland was overwhelming but the recent conversation stopped her.
And don't tell anyone about this . . . Not even that lover of yours . . . And if you think we can't see what you're doing, well . . . I'll make sure you get the message. Like this . . .
She shook her head a bit and turned to Walter, seeing the concern in his eyes but it doesn't deter her. "Then let's go."
Walter nodded in agreement. "Follow me. I know the way."
With that, Walter pushes the closed door open and goes through with Maria following close behind. They rushed through more hallways that Maria thought they never found the healers or Ana for that matter. Her mind begins to panic at the thought but she kept staying close to Walter diligently. Finally, they stop in front of a usual door that had more locks on it than she thought would be possible.
"Is this the healers? Looks a little too secure."
"It's in case a hunter tried to kill another trust was injured."
Walter moves closer to the door and knocks on it and a red light comes on. Before she knew it, the light turns into a scanner and runs through both of their bodies. Maria remained as still as possible until it disappeared and the next thing she knew, the locks on the door clicked open one at a time. Eventually, the door creaks open and a strange looking Yautja comes through that was wearing a leather covering that stretching over his body and stops at his knees. It almost reminded Maira of scrubs that doctors use except more . . . primal.
The Yautja starts clicking at them and Maria thought this wasn't going to go well. She didn't understand Yautja and form her knowledge, Walter didn't either but again, she was surprised when he took a step forward and began making the same clicking sounds back. When did he learn to speak like that? The Yautja responds back and moves out of the way, grunting in disapproval but give them access into the healers no less.
"How did you learn to speak like that?"
Walter turns his head to the side to get a glimpse of her. "I learn fast due to the advanced technology I have. It's easy for me."
Regardless, Maria let the subject drop since what he said made sense. She has to keep telling herself that he's a synthetic and everything that seemed impossible would be easy for him. Walter nudges Maria to follow him and both walk in without a moment to lose.
Inside, the room was packed with metal tables that were in rows near the wall with some filled with injured Yautjas being attended by others that look almost identical to the one that let them in. As they passed through, she saw some gruesome things that she wished she didn't seem like one hunter had his arm mangled to the point only skin was holding it together while another had his intestines hanging off from him and draped on the side of the metal table. Maria wasn't used to seeing something like that yet so she turns her gaze away, looking forward to seeing another door at the end. What is with Yautjas and doors?
"Ana is being held there."
Upon hearing that, Maria takes off fast and leaving Walter behind. Her heart pounding at the thought of seeing Ana in pain like before when Weyland tortured her. Now, he was doing it again and it only made her anger towards Weyland stronger. Without hesitation, she rams into the door and opens wide for her to go through. She stops when Maria sees Ana lying on the metal table with Raith looking down on her from one side while another Yautja in the same leather clothing on the other. They all jump and turn toward her with a little shock while Ana barely reacts, opening her eyes a little and Maria could tell she was in pain. She couldn't move for a second as she tries to process the scene but she snaps out of it, running towards Ana without any regard for Raith and the other Yautja. She heard a small growl coming for the healer but she ignores it. Her only concern was for her friend.
"Ana. Are you alright? Say something."
Maria pleases but Ana gives no response other than a groan as her eyes close again painfully. Maria turns to Raith since he's the closest person that she could trust despite the history between them.
"What happened to her, Raith?"
Raith shifts in his spot uncomfortably, trying to find the right ooman words. "I . . . don't know. Ana . . . cried in pain. Took her . . . here and called Walter . . . for help."
It didn't do much for Maria but she had to appreciate him taking her here when she needed help. She nods to him in respect and looks back down at Ana. She tightens her hands on the edge of the metal table at the thought that this was Weyland's fault. She took a moment to collect herself and turns toward Walter.
"Is it the chip's doing?"
She watches as Walter moves to Ana's side, carefully making sure not to shove the healer out of the way and cause more problems. He leans down and takes out a small hand-held device that Maria didn't notice before. He places it over Ana's temple and it comes to life, making a little beeping noise as he moves it back and forth. After a minute, the device makes a louder, constant beep and Walter pulls it back to him.
"Well?"
Maria's patience was growing thin. She wanted to confirm that it was the chip activating and if it is, her worst nightmare was beginning to fold, making it worse that she can't tell anyone about it in fear that Weyland will definitely kill her. She waits as Walter examines the device one more time and looks up to her.
"Yes. Somehow, the chip activated based on a signal from the master control. But I have it here and I didn't touch it. It doesn't make sense."
"Unless someone else has it . . ."
Maria blurts it out without thinking and her head whips back when Walter calls. "What do you mean?"
Her mind begins to scramble for an excuse but the only one that she had wasn't entirely convincing and she feared that Walter may suspect that Maria was hiding something. Still, she decided to use it.
"Well . . . it's just my thinking."
She doesn't look directly into Walter's eyes, fearing that he might see through her. She decides to turn her attention to Raith, changing the subject before Walter could ask any more. "Will she be okay?"
Raith sighs in response. His mandibles tighten into his face but the rest of his body remains steady. He opens his eyes to her and nods. "For now. Will . . . make sure Ana . . . is safe. Promise . . ."
Maria felt safe and content with Raith since she could hear the sincerity in his voice. Looking into his yellow eyes, Maria could see a bit of something that reminded her of the times she was with Za'taan. Those memories began to warm her body but she dismisses them, not certain about how Za'taan is doing after the celebration and encounter with the Maigu Clan. She hasn't seen him since then and Maria worried that something might have happened to him. For now, she decided to focus on Ana and she smiles at Raith.
"Thank you, Raith."
He grunts to her and bows his head in her direction. Her eyes widened at the sight since she didn't think Raith would show her respect after their rocky relationship in the beginning but she takes it nonetheless. She bows her head to reciprocate and glances down at Ana who looked somewhat peaceful compared to the beginning. She looks back at Walter.
"Make sure to keep looking for a way to save her. Please."
She whines at the last word to show that she needed to help her friend but has to wait for results from Walter. He sighs and tightens his lips together. "I will."
She smiles. "Alright. I'm going to get some rest."
Maria turns around and heads out of the room but not before hearing Walter call to her. "You can sleep in Ana's room. Your friend will probably be staying here overnight."
"No. I'll be going back to Za'taan's room. I don't want to impose anymore that I should and I need to clear my head."
She turns to Raith and asks before she takes off. "Do you know if Za'taan is there? I haven't seen him since last night."
She hoped that Raith might know but unfortunately, he shakes his head back and forth. "No . . . Nothing since . . . last night."
Maria sighs in disappointment. "Okay. Goodnight."
Again, she tries to head towards the exit. "Hold up, Maria."
Walter stops her yet again and the frustration in her grows. She's already got enough to deal with and others stopping her from taking a mental break was starting to take a toll on her. Despite that, she turns around and sees Walter stopping a few feet away from her.
"I know you want to rest but there's one important thing we need to take care of."
"Such as?"
When Maria asked, Walter moves his hand towards his pocket and pulls something out. When she saw that it was some kind of needle that contained a clear liquid in its barrel, Maria backs off in alarm and startling her along with everyone else in the room since she heard Raith growl and rush to them, pushing between Walter and Maria. It startled both of them but Maria wanted to know what Walter was up to.
"What's that for?"
She could tell that Walter was surprised by the reaction of everyone with his eyes widened to the max. He puts his hands up with the needle in one of them. "Sorry about that. I'm not going to harm anyone, Big Guy."
Walter looks to Raith who postured his body into a fighting stance and starts clicking in anger. Maria watches Walter respond the same way but gentler and it must have been okay with Raith because, after the conversation, Raith relaxes and slowly backs away but stays close to Maria's side. She looks back at Walter, wanting to know his intentions.
"It's only a shot for you. For protection."
That only confused Maria all the more. "What protection?"
"Against anything that might harm you. It's like a flu shot but for other diseases. My own concoction made from what the healers have given me."
"Why now and why wouldn't the healers give it to us themselves? "
Maria crosses her arms as she took his words in deep thought, trying to find any reason not to take whatever she was injecting her with. She still wasn't entirely convinced with Walter so she kept going with the 'silent' interrogation. Maria was already in deep knees with this so she waited for him to answer in which Walter did.
"Well, as you can see, we're not on Earth anymore. And we don't know what we will be encountering in outer space. I made this so it would keep everyone safe, specifically you and Ana since I don't need it. Being a synthetic and all. Plus, the healers aren't exactly keen on helping oomans and with this 'chip' thing going on right now, who knows what else can happen?"
Maria thought it over once more and again, couldn't find a single thing to argue against him. They didn't know what dangers they would be and she worried very much about Ana's safety and well-being. Walter has helped them this far so what motive would he have other than to help? Maria sighs and asks him one more question.
"Will you give this to Ana while she's out?"
Walter shakes his head. "No. I won't give it to her without her consent so I'll be waiting until she wakes up. Plus, I don't think Raith would allow me after reacting as he did with you just now."
Maria turns to Raith and although he stood back, she noticed the muscles in his arms bulge a little as if he's on edge. Walter did make a point and with her mind almost exhausted from everything, she sighs and admits defeat.
"Alright. Let's get this over then."
With that, Maria moves her arm so that the underside was exposed. Walter nods to her and moves closer, glancing over to Raith as he begins to growl once more. Maria turns and gives him a look of 'it's okay' and that calmed Raith down a bit. Walter moves closer and pulls back the needle in his hand, taking the cap off to expose the tip. It was somewhat long and thick but Maria had seen worse things and in some way, felt lucky that she did or else she would have made a fuss over it. Walter grips onto the are below her elbow and use his thumb to find the vein. Once got it, he positions the needle and looks at Maria one last time before inserting it into her body.
It stings for a moment and Maria grinds her teeth for a split second to endure it. Soon, the clear liquid begins to flow into her vein and she could feel a cold sensation running down her arm. It felt weird but she endured it. When it was all done. Walter pulls out the needle, caps it once more and places small cotton onto the area to stop the small bleeding. After a few moments, Walter removes the cotton and inspects her arm, making sure everything checks out.
"There we go. Quick and easy and already healing. You should be good now, Maria. Thank you for your time and I promise to help Ana in any way that I can."
Walter smiles at her and Maria gives him a small one. "Thank you, Walter. Watch over her for me."
He nods and looks to Raith. "And you too."
Raith doesn't say anything but bows a little in acknowledgment. With that, she makes her way out of the room, not wanting to talk anymore about the matter. She was already trying to keep her sanity together with all the things she'd found out in only a matter of hours. Weyland calling and threatening to kill Ana if she didn't cooperate. The worst part is not being able to tell anyone about it, much more with what Weyland is plotting. It was tearing her apart from the inside and there was nothing she could do about it.
Shaking her head, she makes her way back the same path. Once she got out of the healers, back through the door that led to the hallway, and made her way towards Za'taan's room, she wondered if Za'taan was back from whatever he was doing. From what Raith said, he had mostly been out and not speaking to anyone but she expected it as much. She imagined it must have been hard for him to deal with his mother's former clan but not knowing all of the details, the history between them could be much worse than what Maria thought. She wonders if he will ever tell her.
Once she gets to the door to Za'taan's room, she pushes it open since she saw that it was unlocked but she thought nothing of it. Her mind was already dealing with other things and she rather just go to sleep and hope for a better tomorrow. But just as she walks through and the door shuts behind, she looks towards the bed and freezes, a little shocked by who she saw.
"Za'taan."
Before she called for him, Za'taan had his head down, sitting on the edge of the bed and looking towards the floor in defeat. All he had was his loincloth on and Maria glances to the floor near his feet and notices his armor scattered in a messy state. Something must have bothered him so much like this. When she calls his name, Za'taan lifts her head and his eyes lit up if only a little.
"Maria."
He stands up immediately but doesn't move to be with her. The uncomfortable silence stands between them and Maria didn't know what to do. The last time she had seen him, Za'taan was in such an angry state that it scared her. Her breathing and heart started to race in fear and anticipation of what he was going to do or say. She watched his body posture and looked for any signs on him that would indicate something but he stood as still as a statue with his eyes the only thing she could use. They showed only uncertainty to which Maria thought it was because of Maria seeing him angry at the celebration. Not able to take on the silence any longer, she opens her mouth to speak but Za'taan beat her to the punch.
"Let me speak. Please."
Maria closes her mouth straight away, swallowing the bit of saliva that was gathering in her mouth. She nods to him slowly and Za'taan takes a deep breath, closing his eyes before looking back to her.
"I'm sorry for my behavior at the feast. I shouldn't have acted the way I did. Especially with you there. You must have been terrified."
For a moment, Maria sees Za'taan look so vulnerable that it stung her chest a little as if she was feeling his pain as well. His eyes lost the beautiful, red color that made them so special and she worried about him. It wasn't like him to be in such a state and she could only wonder if meeting the Maigu Clan must have really affected him but again, she doesn't know the whole story.
Maria sighs. "I was, at the time, but I'm okay. I just had a lot of things on my mind."
Za'taan tilts his head to the side. "With Ana? I heard about what happened. Is she okay?"
"She's fine. For now."
There was a small pause between them. "Are you okay?"
At first, Maria was hesitant to tell him nor look into his eyes. She wanted so badly to say everything she found out. What Weyland is planning and how it is connected to the incident with Ana and such. Her heart begs to tell him and be in his arms, feeling safe from danger. Without hesitation, Maria hurries over to him and wraps her arms around his waist, not wanting to let him go. She feels Za'taan tense up a bit at the move.
"Maria?"
She doesn't answer him and rubs her face hard into his abdomen, taking a large whiff of his sweet cinnamon smell. It sent a warmth through her entire body and it felt great to her. After a while, she felt his arms slowly work their way around her smaller body until one of his hands digs into her hair and gently scratches on her scalp. Maria breathes deeply into his chest, relishing Za'taan being so close to her.
"Is everything alright?"
No . . . nothing is alright for Maria. Her heart screams to tell him everything with Weyland but of course, her mind had to butt in and break her conviction.
The deal I offered to you back at the facility remains the same . . . Cooperate and Ana will be spared . . . And don't tell anyone about this . . . Not even that lover of yours . . . I'll make sure you get the message.
Those words tore into her soul and Maria presses her face even harder than before. She feels Za'taan's claws beginning to dig into her scalp but she didn't care.
"Maria."
He calls to her one more time and Maria finally lifts her head up to look into his eyes that were filled with worry. She didn't want him to look like that as it was making her feel scared about everything. Not telling was like going against his back but what choice did she have? Weyland threatened her friend's life and she would do anything to keep all those she loved safe. Maria looks deeply at his red eyes before tippy toeing higher until her face was only an inch or two away from his.
"Za'taan . . . I missed you. I'm . . . sorry."
She had to say that last part but she saw that it only confused Za'taan all the more. She couldn't stand it anymore and with a leap of courage, she moves until her lips pressed into his inner mouth, closing her mouth at the enjoyment of it.
At first, he doesn't respond to her advances but when Maria begins to glide her tongue across the teeth of his inner mouth, her body is suddenly lifted into the air by Za'taan's strong arms and his tongue sticks out and battles her own until she relents, opening her mouth wide for his tongue to invade it. Maria moans in response and her core begins to burn strong for him as she wraps her legs around his waist. Soon, Za'taan carries her to the bed but Maria couldn't wait for him. She shifts in his arms so that her core begins to grind against him. She hears Za'taan growl before he throws her softly onto the bed with her sprawled over it.
Maria opens her eyes and sees Za'taan ripping off his loincloth and exposing his large cock to her. She couldn't help but note that it looked twice as big as before with the color of it turning into a bright green color. The ridges lining it started to swell and made his cock look like it was growing in girth. Maria's breathing picks up the pace and her heart works twice as hard to pump the burning heat throughout her body and effectively made her core begin to drip with cum, drenching her undergarments. Za'taan growls at the sight of her and before Maria knew it, he climbs onto the bed and over her body. His red eyes regain their intense glow that Maria missed so much. But before Za'taan can pull off anything with her, Maria takes the initiative and pushes Za'taan to roll onto his back next to her. Fast as lighting, she lifts herself and positions herself to straddle on top of him.
Looking down, she could see Za'taan looked a bit surprised but his expression changes into one of pleasure, twitching his mandibles rapidly at the joy of it. This is what Maria needed to distract herself from everything. He was her drug that she couldn't get enough of it.
She wanted him so much.
With that, Maria starts to rip off her clothes impatiently. So much that she almost tore her top in half out of frustration but figured it out. Her breasts became exposed and she could feel her nipples harden from the reaction that she got from Za'taan . . . love and want. She chuckles and lowers herself down until her breasts press against his bare chest. He groans at the feeling as his face comes closer to her.
"Maria. Are you sure you're alright?"
Oh . . . why does he have to bring it up? Maria tries her best to push all the bad thoughts away, only focusing on him but with the look of worry coming back on his face, Maria had to think fast.
"I'm alright. I just miss you . . . A lot."
As she said that, Maria's hand moves down slowly on his body until it reaches behind and grabs his cock, squeezing it enough to get a moan out of him. It sends Za'taan over the edge and before Maria knew what was happening, he flips her over until she was on her hands and knees. She yelps from the sudden change until she felt Za'taan's chest press against the skin of her back as he lowers himself down on her. His tongue licks the small crook of her neck and Maria moans into the air when one of his clawed hands moves to her breast and pinches her nipples between his fingers.
Before she knew it, Za'taan had ripped her bottom clothing off and pressed his cock into the crack of her ass. She whines in anticipation and starts to lose her patience when he only grinds against her and doesn't penetrate her. When she had enough, Maria reaches behind with all of her strength and grabs his cock once more. She hears him growl near her ear but it doesn't stop her as she shifts forward to allow him access to her core. As soon as she got him where she wanted, she pushes herself back and his cock plunges deep into her core.
She screams into the air as Za'taan roars at the same time, relishing this feeling she had missed despite only being a short amount of time. Without a moment to spare, Maria takes the initiative and thrusts herself back and forth. His cock rubs the walls inside her core, sending a jolt throughout her body each time it happened. She keeps up the pace for a while until she began losing her pace, letting Za'taan take control when he wraps one arm around her abdomen and holds himself up with the other, entwining his fingers over hers. He begins thrusting harder than ever before and it took everything in Maria not to cum right then and there. She wanted to never let this end and so she did her best to keep up with him.
Za'taan moves faster into her, pushing as deep into her core as possible and taking even more. His growls and her moans mix together along with the creaking of the bed getting louder as they moved faster. Both kept going like this until Maria felt a knot growing inside her core and knew that her orgasm was coming strong. Za'taan presses his chest even more into her back and starts nibbling into the nook of her shoulder, sending her over the edge. Maria screams as loud as she came and feels her cum flowing out of her, trickling down the sides of her thighs and onto the bed. His orgasm follows suit, feeling his seed burst inside her. Her body would have collapsed if Za'taan didn't hold on to her as they took deep breaths to get back the air they lost. After a few moments, she hears Za'taan voice close to her ear as he whispers.
"Maria."
She moves her hand around until she grabs one of his dreadlocks that had slipped over his shoulder and onto her. He growls in reaction and Maria turns her head to the side to see his bright red eyes once more. She smiles in satisfaction but wasn't done with him just yet.
"Za'taan . . . I want more . . . Please."
Although her body felt exhausted, the spark inside her lit up once more but she worried it might be because of 'other' reasons. But she didn't get time to decide as Za'taan moves his face closer to hers and presses his inner mouth to her, scraping the tips of his mandibles into her cheeks and leaving scratches behind. It didn't bother her and with the sweet cinnamon smell growing stronger, her mind went blank.
Za'taan whispers into her ear and the air he breathes onto her skin sends another jolt through her. "As you wish."
With that, Za'taan lifts his body back up until he's kneeling behind her. His clawed hands grab onto each side of her hips and begin pulling her back, pushing his cock back inside her. Maria moans loudly as he picks up the pace once more, going for another round.
However, a small thought in Maria's mind nagged at her during that time that bothered her like a fly.
Cooperate and Ana will be spared . . .
Maria tightens her eyes shut, trying to get rid of that thought from her mind as she felt Za'taan moving faster inside her. But she couldn't help but think about the future and what will happen to them.
But she knows that something is coming . . . and it was only a matter of time before it finally catches up to her and she fears the consequences that will soon follow.
Hi Readers!
What a chapter! Weyland being an asshole for threatening Maria with harming Ana just to keep their interaction a secret. It's really eating away at Maria to keep such a big secret from everyone else, including Za'taan but there are more problems to be dealt with that will be explained in future chapters. Lots of drama to come and let us hope that everything works out for our characters. Who knows?
So many questions but will find out some answers when Chapter 14 comes in two weeks. (In case some of you haven't got the notice, I'll be taking the next week off for my birthday and 4th of July. Thank you all for the birthday wishes as well! :) )
P.S. Appreciation to Anonymous-E, Maria, Paul Lenzen, and Guest for the wonderful reviews on Metamorphosis. Really helps me a lot and I hope you are all continue to enjoy my stories. As for Anonymous-E, I really like the name Flying Arrow but wanted to clarify if the main character will be the soldier or the female Yautja. Either title sounds awesome.
And my readers . . . If you would like a say in the matter for the title, please let me know either by my Twitter account or review on my stories.
Let me know and I'll see to it.
Thank you and enjoy! :)))))
