7th Kind 1: Christmas in Dreamland (9 page)

“Why not use us?” Charlie asked.

“Never!” Meg kissed each one on the lips. “I’d quit and runaway with you first.”

“They’d find us. Don’t be crazy.” Ike used a soothing voice.

Charlie held up his hand. “No, I didn’t mean you’d ever do it, Meg. I meant why would they bring back the other aliens when they could use us to test it. Sure, they don’t want us to break our cover, but moving aliens around isn’t low profile stuff either.”

Shifting to sit on Henry, Meg shook her head. “I’ll figure out something. The big boss is due back tomorrow. I got a message yesterday to meet with him as soon as he’s back.”

“It’ll be fine.” Charlie kissed her slow at first, and the passion sparked into a smoldering need.

She wanted to believe them. Somehow, it’d all work out. To Meg, this felt like the beginning of something—not the end of it. Until she knew more, she couldn’t change anything. She needed to enjoy her guys and hoped nothing happened to break things up. The government was hard to fight, but she’d stand up and raise hell.

“You’re right. Let’s forget about it for now and just enjoy each other for a bit.” She slid off Henry. “I want to watch.”

“What?” Ike asked.

Meg grinned. “You three have been pretty focused on me. I want to watch the three of you together.”

“We need you. A group without a female feels incomplete.” Charlie kissed her neck.

“I’m glad, but that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy each other, as well. I want to see that.” She kissed Henry and then Ike. “Turn me on. Make me join you.”

Henry took the challenge and pushed Charlie onto his back. The condoms and lube were in place fast, and Meg admired how quickly Henry grew hard for his lovers. The group mix aroused her, and she wanted to see their lust for each other. The men kissed, cocks rubbing together until Henry slid back and pressed to Charlie’s ass.

The groans from Charlie sent arousing chills down to Meg’s pussy. Ike moved into the group and offered his cock to Charlie. Watching Charlie suck Ike’s thick erection made Meg’s nipples tighten, but she held back. Ike looked at her, and she shook her head.

As if he read her mind, Ike climbed off the bed and went behind Henry. Meg moaned as Ike slid on protection and rubbed lube on Henry’s ass.

“This is what you want?” Ike teased.

Meg nodded.

Ike thrust into Henry hard, and Meg’s pussy tightened in response. Henry’s grunts made her even wetter as he leaned forward to take the cock. Meg couldn’t stop her fingers from rubbing her slit as she watched the three men fuck. It was slow and controlled, they were teasing her, and she loved it.

When Charlie reached out to her, Meg couldn’t resist even though her view of all three was spectacular. She went to Charlie and kissed him. He had other ideas and pulled her to him until her pussy settled on his face. Meg gave in and kissed Henry as Charlie ate her pussy. When Henry’s mouth worked on her breasts, she clung to him and watched Ike fill Henry’s ass.

“We belong together.” Ike leaned in and kissed her mouth.

She nodded. “Nothing will separate us.” Charlie’s tongue worked her clit, and she cried out as the orgasm hit. The men followed her. Their bond might’ve grown already because she felt Charlie shudder and Henry groan. Ike slammed Henry’s ass, and Meg savored the sensation. They were connected, and she wanted to explore every fantasy to see how good it could be.

Chapter Seven

Later that day, Meg was locked in her office working on the weapon problem. Henry and the guys went to visit the alien guests. Regon paced as the tension built.

“ET is in labor. We should get Meg,” he said.

“No, don’t make her stress. Cats do this every day in alleys.” Ike nodded to the box in the corner they’d fashioned for their guest.

The trust was still forming, but aliens sensed each other and in some ways, they were in the same boat. They were at the mercy of the government. Henry turned to Regon. “We need to talk about when Commander Hastings gets back. The weapon needs to be tested. The problems aren’t going to go away. The abductions are on the rise. They might want you four back.”

“You as well. The Keelons don’t enter a war they don’t think they can win. Going after Earth would be foolish until they’ve done thorough recon.” Regon continued his pacing.

“But Earth isn’t capable of the same level of travel as the Keelons. We crashed here. You escaped. Do you think there are a lot more refugees? That trend would anger the Keelons.” Charlie shook his head.

Regon shrugged. “There weren’t others where we were being kept. We were the big secret. But a lot has developed at home since you left. More war. Genetic modifications are not working as they intend.”

“What modifications?” Ike asked.

“I’m just a warrior. There’s no way to be sure what they wanted to do. They were taking off-worlders and experimenting on them. But that was all on ships; never on the planet.”

“We could be in trouble.” Henry hated the idea that Meg or any of them could be in danger, but they had to be realistic. “We need to let Meg test her weapon. I’ll volunteer.”

“No!” Charlie blurted. “I can do it.”

“Stop it. I’m the leader, I’ll take it.” Ike headed to the door.

Regon blocked his path. “We were discussing it last night. We want to be of use and prove our loyalty. All four of us are prepared to be tested on. Besides, you three were raised human. You should continue to pass for it as long as you can.”

“That won’t fool the Keelons.” Charlie shrugged.

Ike nodded. “But if the Keelons become the enemy and too many people don’t trust us, we could be prisoners not security.”

“We’ve devoted our lives. They wouldn’t.” Henry knew he was being naïve. The military would do anything to keep a panic under control and not let the Keelons win. Handing over the refugees to make the Keelons go away was not out of the question, and Henry worried what it’d mean for him, Charlie and Ike. They had assimilated fully and found their female. Human life was all they wanted and all they knew.

“We don’t know what the purpose of the abductions is. I doubt the Keelons care about us, but if men are leaving, the Keelons won’t have enough to win battles. Control will breakdown. It won’t work. They’ll take back all their defectors.” Ike tapped his foot on the cold tile floor.

Meg burst in with a huge grin on her face. “I got it!”

“Wait, Meg. We’re all volunteering. Test on us.” Henry walked up to her.

Her cute nose scrunched under her glasses, and she stuffed her hands in her lab coat pockets. “No! Thank you guys, all of you. But no one is going to be in excruciating pain for this. I figured it out. Skin grafts.”

“Skin what?” Regon asked.

“Grafts. Human skin heals well, sheds dead cells and grows new ones all the time. But if you’re burned badly, you can get a skin graft from one part of your body moved to another to promote healing. We take a skin graft from each of you, and while it’s still viable, test the dust. If it causes the skin to break apart, we know it works. If a graft of my skin is taken then the dust introduced, my skin will die but it won’t fall apart or be damaged. That’s all the proof I need!” She hummed with success.

“You’re a genius.” Ike kissed her.

“I know. Now, the wounds will have to heal, but you guys heal fast. Your skin will regenerate in a day or so. We just need to keep the sites clean.” She hugged Henry. “But thank you all for volunteering.”

A yowl halted the conversation, and all eight of them headed for the corner.

“ET!” Meg knelt down and petted her cat. “Three babies.”

“They are furry, unlike the mother,” Regon said.

Meg glared at Ike. “Those strays he keeps to keep the fields clear of mice. Poor ET.”

“They look healthy. All moving. Cute.” Henry grinned at the little creatures.

Meg picked them up one by one. “Two girls and the runt is a boy. They need names.”

“Born on Christmas. Would that theme be too silly?” Charlie asked.

“No, not at all. Noel, Holly, and what for the boy?” Meg nudged him toward ET so he could get dinner with his sisters.

“What about that Christmas movie? Call him Tiny Tim.” Ike grinned.

“No.” Meg smacked his arm. “But the author of that story might work. He looks like a little Dickens.”

“What does that mean?” Regon asked.

“Like he’ll be a troublemaker. So now that we have healthy kittens, do you really think the top guys will be okay with the skin-graft tests? Can you do them?” Henry was all for avoiding pain, but there were no guarantees.

“I can’t do the grafts. I have one of my lab guys coming in tomorrow. He’s an MD so it’ll be good. And I caught him having sex with one of your security guys on my lab table. They broke a microscope! So he’ll be quiet and cooperate. I didn’t fire him or turn in his boyfriend. This way, we can show it to the top guys later tomorrow.” Meg stared at the cute little kittens. “You guys don’t mind having them here? I doubt she’ll want to move her family now.”

“They’re fine. It’s nice to have life in here. Will Liz be back soon?” Regon asked.

Meg smiled. “Most people won’t be back until after New Year’s. Another week. But I’ll email her and see if she can come in a few days early.”

“Are you sure that’s a good idea?” Henry saw Meg’s confidence and loved it, but he also knew that the higher ups could do anything. If they found out about the relationship, they could make the guys disappear.

“I’ve got an alternative plan now. No pain for anyone. And Christmas is today so she’s had the holiday with her family. If I ask her to come back a few days early, she will. I won’t ruin the surprise.”

Regon nodded. “Thank you. Seeing Liz would make all the difference in the world to us.”

Henry hugged Meg and felt guilty for having his woman right there when the four aliens were denied theirs. Looking at Charlie and Ike, he felt their tension as well. There was no way to know what the brass would do when Meg met with them. They couldn’t change her, and Meg’s approach to military brass wasn’t always the sedate and respectful manner they demanded. As confident as Meg was, the men wouldn’t be at ease until they knew they could stay with her forever. At least, without military interference.

* * * *

The next day, the men were in the lab instead of working. A serious lab geek took skin grafts from the aliens in containment then from Ike and his guys.

Once the wounds were dressed, the men went back to their security office. Ike worked on the report on the status of the alien guests for his superior. He left out the sexual details and the eggnog for the guests. Things were getting more complicated, but there was nothing to do but wait and see.

When Meg waltzed into their security office with a shy smile a few hours later, Ike knew. He stood. “It works?”

She nodded. “We can defend ourselves. It totally destroys the skin cells ability to bond.”

Henry and Charlie hugged her first then Ike got his arms around her. “So is there an antidote?”

“That’s next. Even if the big guys don’t want one, I do. Just in case you guys get exposed.” She squeezed him tighter.

“The boss isn’t back?” Henry asked.

Meg shrugged. “It got pushed back a day. Military types. But I’m moving in with you guys. I’m requesting that tomorrow.”

Ike tensed. “Are you sure?”

“You don’t want me?” She pouted playfully and tugged off her lab coat.

“We want you!” Charlie pulled her dress over her head.

Meg blushed. “Aren’t there cameras here?”

Henry unhooked her bra and tossed it aside. “Not in the security office. Now, wiggle out of those panties.”

With a grin, Meg pushed the skimpy, purple cotton panties down until they hit the floor.

Ike lifted her and set her on the desk. “You’re taking a serious chance tomorrow.”

“It’s worth it. I finally found my guys. Liz is my friend; I have to help her, too. I’ve always sympathized with her, but now, I really understand how intense and overwhelming it can be to have so many men. Not every woman could handle it. Now, I’d go crazy if they tried to take you away.” She kissed his chin and started to pull Ike’s clothes off.

“No, no. We have to get back to work. You’re a welcome break today. With people coming back, we have to get used to being professional some of the time.” Ike slid on protection as he licked her pussy. She was wet and ready. Apparently, there was no end to her lust for them.

Ike filled her pussy and lifted her off the desk. Naturally, she wrapped her arms and legs around him, and he turned to lean back on the desk. His hands cupped her ass and spread her cheeks for more fun.

Moaning, Meg kissed his neck. “I guess being skinny does have perks.”

Laughing, he lifted her on his cock and let her slid down. Her shivers rewarded him. “You’re perfect. Let us worry about keeping you safe.” He wasn’t just talking about sex, but he didn’t want to ruin the moment.
