Dark Nine [18+]

Chapter Seventy-One

On our arrival back, Venus was asleep in Dark Ninth's chamber, Entrpy, Ephereum and Diasphora, napping across or next to him, cuddled close. Maelstrom was practicing with Neptune's arrow and lightning design, striking make-believe targets across the Kor Hold Dead City. No life, only space and Elion architecture to play with. He seemed content enough.

It was from that point that Alpha Centauri suggested we go to Moon Down, a level within the Kor Hold that was toward the centre, private and for the females. The level is hidden behind a secret wall that moves aside at the Estori's step.

It's another open space but the colours on the walls are deep violet, veins of navy blue, craters of silver and throbbing light throughout. It's trippy, but it's also immediately calming, almost like a meditative hypnosis. The throbbing light is all we get, and since we're deep inside the Hold, it's like being stuck in a deep chamber underground. It wouldn't be complete without a ridiculously luxurious place to bathe and shower toward the end of the winding chamber. Of course, that's where I end up. In a cool shallow pool with running water, I use that to wash the darker blood stains off my skin. Then I shed my gown with Alpha Centauri and Mars watching me move, standing behind me, their eyes making my skin heat with their combined Elion stares.

Alpha Centauri and Mars have me cornered in here. With the absentee squads, wherever they are – until their return, I have their leaders looking after me.

The Estori left his spear behind up above, which is reassuring. He probably left it for Maelstrom to play with and practice throwing a heavier Kor weapon.

Now that I'm naked and clean, I walk out of the shallow water and my mouth curls up in the corner when I see Alpha Centauri and Mars' shafts are both hard and beautiful. Usually they approach me with intent and seduction, but they knew I was getting over the panic of what just occurred. And Mars did already fill me with his seed. But their silence is something new. In Alpha Centauri's smokey steel eyes, they're glazed with new information about me. And Mars doesn't have a guard up anymore. He used to always have a shield up around me, ready for the moment I'd take advantage of my power and abuse them.

I could think of nothing more disgusting than taking advantage of these handsome, gorgeous weapons who craved to make me happy.

I don't ask them to please me this time. I'm feeling generous and full of love for the both of them. I was so scared that I was going to lose my Kors to a war. Or that they'd become enemies of their own Empress. I just wanted to hold them. To kiss them. To... to express how much they meant to me, for better or worse. I felt things I couldn't pretend. It didn't make sense logically, but what I felt was undeniable.

I loved these Elions.

The Estori and Mars gave me what I wanted. Space. So I could feel better, cleaner and fresh.

Now I approach them and they both look curious, waiting for my command.

I slowly drop to my knees, reaching up both my hands – they step forward, closer to me. Mars on my left, Alpha Centauri on my right. I stroke both their shafts gently.

"Let me," my whisper comes out husky and needy. Every part of me wants to please them this time.

"Empress..." Alpha Centauri drawls, "You surprise us."

"Venus didn't choose anybody for the herb, he knew a Dark Nine would match us. Diana, you didn't betray us to your species... you had every chance to turn on us," Mars is spell-bound, "...and now you kneel, when we should be pleasing you. All you need to do is ask."

"Shh," I can't help myself, "I want to give. I don't want to be your Queen. Right now... I want to be your slave. I want to serve my Elion masters... it's... fun," I whisper that very quickly, just in case they get the wrong idea. I was horny as fuck. I just wanted to play this role. A good for nothing venom whore.
