I waited for Icaan to explain. Why wasn't he taking a pirate to turn in when he was willing to take an innocent person like me for credits alone."Two reasons," he said as he walked to the cargo area of the ship. "One, I can control a lone woman easily."As I nodded, I had to fight not to react. It was a good reason. The Frentin pheromones did make my gender and race weak at the knees."And two, I already know he's amazing at escaping. If we took him with us he'd be attacking us in our sleep, or worse, while I'm doing a dump long before we reached any kind of harbour or port to turn him in."I sighed. It definitely sounded like these two had history."Finally, I really don't like having him around.""That's technically three rea

 Within seconds Icaan had pulled my shorts off and I was entirely exposed. He pushed my legs further open, a growl escaping him as he plunged his fingers deep into me first.I gasped, surprised by the sudden way he'd claimed me, but the sensation was more pleasure than anything else. He kept my hands pinned upwards for a moment and looked at my face as he thrust in and out of me a few times."You're tighter than I expected. This is going to be a lot for you to handle."My eyes went wide as he pulled his fingers out and used that hand to unzip his own spacesuit and free himself. I was immediately presented with the largest manhood I'd ever seen and it throbbed before me.Before I could consider changing my mind he brought it between my legs and pressed it against my opening. I whimpered instinctively,

 Dreams of blue skies and a warm body to share it with filled my head, stirring my desire until the soft hand stroking my cheek broke through the imagined pleasure. I opened my eyes to see Icaan only a little way away from me, his hand cupping my cheek."Wake up sleepy head. We're docked on Antiga," he said but the words didn't entirely register. What did he mean we were on Antiga? We were on my home world and I'd just shown him my favourite place to sit and watch the ships take off.Almost instinctively I leaned up and kissed him, his scent keeping my mind half drowned in the romantic sweetness of the fading dream. He pulled back and chuckled."I take it they were pleasant dreams then. I must be having an affect on you again, but there will be plenty of time for us to have some more fun later. I've got to go make some trades. Do you w

 The relief was immediate the moment the hatch on Icaan's ship shut behind us both. Icaan didn't take the leash and collar off me right away, but he disconnected it from him so he could install the water canister he'd come back with.I was still standing by the door when he came back."Okay, there's clearly something bothering you. Out with it," he said.I frowned, having thought about it all the way back. I wasn't sure I'd wanted to say what it was, but he clearly wasn't going to let it go."I thought you'd have enjoyed getting to stretch your legs and see another planet.""I did, but I guess a part of me hoped that necklace had a large reward. Maybe one large enough that you'd have considered letting me go," I replied, watching his face as I spoke to see if it ma

 I woke alone, my hands bound together and my feet the same. Sighing I realized I was still on the mattress in the middle of Icaan's room. Still a captive and still being taken toward the Frentin market. Where I would be officially registered as a new human slave and sold to the highest bidder.It was almost enough to make a person feel sick. But the truth was I couldn't bring myself to think about it for too long. It just made me angry or likely to do something stupid in desperation.So far it seemed like my plan to stay calm and get to know him might be working. He'd not responded amazingly well to my suggestion that being given a woman free to think and decide was far better than taking advantage of one seduced by the chemicals his body filled the air with, but he'd not responded badly either.At first I didn't get up, but nature ca
