Barnabus + Miktes + Hotel room + ?????????


Chapter 17

"REPORT!" Ekkar commanded from under a street lamp as he and his men stood in the middle of the now empty and pitch black boardwalk. "Have you found that worthless Jack and his damned pet yet?"

The groups of enforcers standing in front of their Fidraon captain all began shaking and muttering to one another. Finally one of them was chosen and pushed to the front to give the dragon the bad news. "S-Sir we're sorry but they appear to have given us the slip." He said fearfully. "There were reports of a strange ship matching the description of the Wild Comet down the beach b-but it was...,"

"It was what!" Ekkar snapped with a loud snarl. He hated when his underlings groveled so much.

"It-was-gone-by-the-time-we-got-out-there-Captain!!" The frightened man finished all at once.

His failure to deliver good news earned the shaking man a hard slap across the face and an angry growl. "Of all the stupid, addlebrained, worthless creatures in existence!" Ekkar shouted. "I swear I should bump you all down to gamma squad for failing me so triumphantly!" Walking away the angry man took out his P.A.D. and dialed a number. Ekkar wasn't looking forward to the call he now had to make because of their failure, but he knew he had to if their client was going to remain calm.

After a few moments of wait the screen came on and the face of Laird Clayworth appeared on the HD screen. "Ah, Mr. Anguis it's about time you contacted me again." The elderly man said with a sniff. "Have you gotten the artifact yet?"

Ekkar glared at his men who all back away from him and then huffed. "No Larry we were unable to get it off of Comet." He told the other man. "Him and the Verdomian ran off before we could take it."

"You know how I hate it when you call me Larry Anguis!" Laird snapped, the older man looking positively red in the face. "As for your failure at doing your job I hope you will keep looking for him. I can't risk failing my business partners again."

"Don't worry about it Mr. Clayworth we'll find him again. I got myself an ace in the hole." Reaching into his back pocket the dragon pulled out another device. This one high-tech with a simple display screen that read: Target Position, and then several numbers which indicated distance.

Laird smiled devilishly seeing the small machine. "Is that a tracking device?"

"Yeah it is. The best model money can buy." Ekkar confirmed. "And it's pointing right to where Barnabus Comet is right now. Slipped the tracker onto that hapless idiot's ugly padded vest when I bumped into him back at the spaceport. I usually do it once every couple of months so that I can... keep track of him."

"You are a cleaver one Mr. Anguis" A sound coming from behind the Laird made the gray haired man look behind himself. "I'm sorry but I'm afraid I must cut this call short. My darling wife is starting to stir and I'd hate to wake her."

"Understand Mr. Clayworth, Ekkar out." Clicking the end button on his P.A.D. Ekkar sneered at having just talked to the elderly man. He hated working for the smarmy bastard. The only reason he did so was because of the credits that flowed from the CEO's pockets. "Come on boys we're heading back to the ship."

"A-Are we going to chase after Comet and his crew in space sir?" One of the enforcers asked. He had seen the numbers on the tracking devices screen and realized that that many numbers meant that their target was off planet.

"No not yet we'll wait until tomorrow afternoon." Ekkar responded as he began heading back to the spaceport where his ship the Surging Star was docked. "If I know Barney and I know I do. He'll be hiding out somewhere in this dump of a beach planet while his crew hide out in space waiting for us to leave. And since that's the case we'll take off now and wait for them in deep space where we'll disable their ship with our weapons, board their clunker of a ship, and take them in for the bounty. There's no way I'm going to let Barnabus Anderson best me again. He's my bitch after all and no one else's."

***************

Barnabus sullenly peered out the window of the shabby hotel room he was in room as the rain outside gently tapped against the smoky glass as he kept watch. It didn't rain often on the Loma Prime thanks to the built in weather control systems, but when it did it tended to pour down in sheets. As the storm continued well into the night is caused a thick and foggy haze to form in the once heated streets, cool droplets making contact and evaporating on concrete buildings that made up the slum-like area him and Miktes had taken refuge in for the night. When the first crack of thunder had echoed outside hours ago, the Jack captain had actually been relieved. If it was going to rain all night then maybe Ekkar and his men wouldn't be out looking for them as hard as they would of if the weather was nicer. But now as it went on for the fifth hour straight he found himself becoming melancholy from the incessant sound of the downpour going on outside.

Turing away from his long vigil for any unexpected "guests", Barnabus took a long drag of the cigarette he had lit a while ago, the dim orange light coming from the tip illuminating his worried looking features, and let out the smoke with a slow exhale of breath. He knew he really shouldn't be smoking again; he had kicked the dirty habit years ago. But, after the day he had he really needed to find an outlet for his building stress. Usually he would have blown off steam by finding a nice guy to have a little stress free fun with during a one night stand. Unfortunately he just couldn't go and do that this time, all thanks to his companion who he really didn't want to leave alone for fear of something happening to him.

Speaking of his companion, the sound of gruff chuckling reaching his ears reminded Barnabus of the room's other occupant and drew his attention over to the motel room's narrow wireframe bed. Sitting atop the rusty piece of furniture was Miktes, the Verdomian quietly eating a pile of junk food they had gotten from a local vending machine as he watched the antics of another legendary redhead on the late, late, late model view screen. Unlike him, Miktes seemed to be in much better sprits as he casually sat there laughing and enjoying himself in the dark room. Turning to watch the younger man for a second, Barnabus gave a wry smile. It was odd, but for some reason seeing the alien so calm held Barnabus a little. Almost like he could feel Miktes' simple mindedness in the back of his own head.

'But that can't be it.' The Jack said looked back out the window. "I got to stop letting my mind wonder like that and focus on what's important.'

[Barnabus: I guess it pays to be young and simple sometimes. Sort of makes me jealous how the big green idiot can just bounce back after all that fist throwing and running around. Wish I could be like that again. Some young kid without a worry in his head except for where your next bit of fun was going to come from and how to find yourself an ass to screw. Then again, maybe I should just be fine being the age I am right now. Forty-three isn't bad and thinking back I cringe remembering all the dumb stuff I did when I was around Miktes' age. Especially when I think back to the time when I was a member of Ekkar's dammed pretty boy enforcers. ... ... Heya, don't laugh I'll have you know I was quite the looker back then. I'm just glad that those enforcers we faced on the boardwalk today weren't as good as my old unit had been back in the day. If we were fighting people like that I know for certain that me and Mickey would be in restraints right now instead of hiding out in this old hotel room.

Anyway, let's get back to what's going on right now. After contacting both Rana and Moah and sorting out my convoluted plan of escape. Me and Miktes carefully made our way through the dirty backstreets and alleyways crisscrossing through this seaside town we had the misfortune to get stuck in for the night. It was hard goings let me tell you, both because of how wet and miserable we were and because Ekkar's men were still patrolling the area trying to find us. Eventually though I was able to lead us to this old broken down building I knew we could hide in for the night. I can still see Miktes' face when I told him where we were going to hide for the night. The kid actually said and I quote here. "Miktes firstborn of Hestry clan will not stay in a hobble!" like he was some sort of spoiled prince or something. Luckily I was able to convince him that staying there was a good idea and led him inside. Once we crossed the threshold I could tell that the Verdomian was impressed. Sure the outside of the building was a wreck, what with the boarded up windows on the ground floor, full trash cans lining the front, and a few old bums lazing about the stoop. But inside there was a very nice but low class hotel lobby complete with toad-like alien valet waiting to give us our keys.

The hotel or the "hidden gem" as it was called by the criminals who frequented it was an establishment where for the right price they'd allow you to stay in one of their "lovely" rooms under the radar. The only people who knew about it besides those in the business were me and a few of my old unit mates from my first Jack crew when we decided to go exploring one day. So I knew for sure the Ekkar would never know to look for it after all he never really cared where I went unless it was on his time. It was easy to convince the toad-like alien who ran the motel to allow us to stay for a nominal fee but I did have a hell of a time convincing Miktes to agree to actually laying low for a while. Fortunately the bottomless pit that's the kid's stomach is more agreeable to these sorts of things and after a few well promises to get him some food to replace what had been ruined during our escape I convinced him to come with me upstairs so that we could lay low for the night. If only I had learned that trick when I first met him. It would have made things a hellava lot easier than all that fighting.]

'He's watching me again.' Miktes thought to himself as he pretended to watch the flashing images in front of him. It was actually starting to make him nervous that he seemed to be so interesting to his human mate all of a sudden. But somehow it also felt a little flattering. Almost as if Barnabus was actually trying to see if he was alright after everything that had happened. But that couldn't be, his submissive wasn't like that. He was just a loud, hairy little jerk who wouldn't do what he was told no matter how many time you commanded him. Though... if all that was true then why did Miktes have to keep stopping himself from stealing quick little glances in his mate's direction?

For the life of the Verdomian he just couldn't understand why he was so enthralled with the human all of a sudden. It wasn't like his mate was naked or anything. He was just sitting there all sad and junk. But, for some reason that bothered him and the more it bothered him the more the warrior tried to push that damned feeling away. Of course that really didn't help him any either. Cause as soon as the thoughts of Barnabus' glum mood were quashed for a few moments other strange thoughts started to pop up. Memories about how they had both acted when he and the older man were fleeing from those strange looking men in those odd blue uniforms.

{Miktes: Ugh... I still can't believe that I went and held his hand so that we wouldn't go and get separated. What am I a youngling!? Then there was when he wrapped his arms around my shoulders and held me close to him as we hid under that bridge. I had been so unnerved by the whole thing that when we went to get back on dry land I had actually helped him out of the water without really thinking. It was almost like I did in completely on instinct, without even thinking about getting something back in return like I normally do! And trust me that's really surprising after I cupped his ass the way I did. I was in the prime position to blackmail him into letting me do stuff to him. I really wish I could just go back to the way I used to be back at the village. You know before I was forced by father to get mated. When I was still a free man I never had to deal with stuff like this. All I had to do was have fun, bully other people around, and fuck anyone who I could get my hands on. But now here I was actually starting to maybe consider other peoples feeling and care about the feelings of my annoying submissive. What's worse is that things only got more annoying after we entered this strange disguised building.

After my mate successfully bribed that creature behind the table who guarded this place he led me up a flight of stairs to the second story of this dwelling. I had never seen such a place before. A long and narrow hallway with doors on both sides and odd smells and sounds coming from behind each entryway. Walking behind my mate down this corridor I listened and scented carefully as we passed each of these doors trying to find out what sort of place this was. One room had weird smoke coming out of it, one had the sounds of glass clinking, and then there was one that I could hear two people rutting like animals behind it. All that curiosity earned me in the end was even more confusion. Wanting an answer it turned to my mate and started to ask why the hell we had come to such a place. But before I could the human suddenly turned to one of these doors and said, "Here we are room 420! Hum... Sounds like a fun room. Come on inside Mickey before someone see's you.", before he opened it and slipped inside. I chased after him of course. Not cause he had told me but because really didn't feel like being left there.

The inside of this room where we apparently were going to be staying wasn't any better than the hallway. All odd smells and weird colors, but I supposed that it was alright. At least until we could leave. I was just about to lie on the comfortable looking bed that sat in the center when my submissive slapped his arms across my chest and told me to take a shower first. Whatever this shower was I really wasn't in the mood to take one. All I wanted was to get some rest. But the hairy little pain in the ass just wouldn't let it got, He actually had the nerve to drag me into a smaller room off to the side and demand that I strip. I was pissed but eventually did as he wanted just to get him to shut up. At least I surprised him by doing it. Guess he's still impressed by seeing my naked form. Anyway he then turned on this water spraying thing and took my clothes and left, calling over his shoulder that I should hurry cause it was his turn next.

That was the last thing he said to me too. After I came out he was all quiet and just handed me some robe to put on while my clothes "dried" before he walked past me and took my place in the room with the spraying water. I hadn't been bothered by the brush off I mean what do I care if he thinks he's too good to talk to me? But after he came out wearing a robe like men and continued to stay all quiet I started to feel real funny. Almost like it bothered me that he wasn't blabbering in my ear. Maybe I should do something to get him talking again. Just... just to see if he can still talk, ya know?}

Glancing over to Barnabus as casually as he could, Miktes furrowed his brows and frowned. Just as he thought as soon as he made eye contact with the human the hairy man had gone back to staring out the window as if nothing happened. If Miktes didn't know better he'd think that his mate almost like he didn't want to look him in the eye. Well if that were the truth then he was going to make him look at him and put a stop to this damnable silence which had descended on them. He just couldn't stand it any longer, the feeling of being ignored by that man settling in his stomach like a rock. "Hey!" Miktes shouted across the room gruffly for the sake of starting conversation. "You see them guys that were chasing us out there?"

Started out of his own thoughts Barnabus peered over to the younger man. So much for trying to keep his distance so that he could think. "Naw, everything is still hunky-dory outside." He said nodding towards the window. "You don't have to be scared though, I know they'll never find this place. Those pretty boy's would probably faint if they stepped foot in a joint like this."

"I ain't scared submissive." Miktes huffed. He wasn't some coward who was afraid of fighting again. He'd knock those guys on their asses if they tried anything. "I was just wondering cause I felt like kicking their asses again."

Barnabus bit back a chuckle. He could tell that the younger man was trying to cover up his true feelings. "Oh you were, were you?" He said smirking. "Well... I'll tell you something: I'm a little scared of them finding us up here. I don't think I could fight them off again anytime soon."

"Why not? You actually fought really well back there. Heh-heh, I liked the way you broke that one guys little nose. You had him crying like a baby." As he spoke Miktes grinned and glanced over to his mate, eyes twinkling with restrained laughter.

His amusement faded however when he saw the raised eyebrow directed at him. "I-I mean you fight really good for someone who don't do it right." Miktes quickly added to cover up what he had just said. "Not like you're a warrior or anything."

"I may not be a warrior but I know for a fact that I know how to fight." Barnabus said with a snort. "I was the top of my combat classes in both my military and my Jack center training!" The older man took another long inhale of his cigarette and gave Miktes a smug smile. "And... do I really need to remind you about who kicked whose ass the first time we met? You know that little tango we did back in my bedroom where you ended up on your back dazed, confused and covered in... ... bruises."

Miktes' blushed a little as he remembered the way he had been humiliated during their first meeting and at the innuendo of what Barnabus had just said. He still had a bit of a sore spot from when the older man had kneed him in the forehead. "You cheated back then." The larger man pouted as he puffed up his cheeks and glared at his lap. "If it had been a real fight I'd have kicked your ass, helped you back up, and then kicked your hairy ass all over again."

"Oh, you want to go again Mr. Green." Barnabus said, playfully motioning for Miktes to come at him with his free hand. "Cause I'd be more than happy to drop you to the floor if that's what you want."

Miktes gave his mate a wide eyed expression and slowly shook his head at the challenge. He hadn't been serious when he had just said that! Even with the way the human drove him crazy, it would go against everything he had been taught back on his home world. You never, ever struck a submissive in a fight. It was the most dishonorable thing a dominate could do. Miktes might not have thought much of the submissives, comparing them to servants and bed warmers. But he'd never hurt any of them it was just wrong to him.

Seeing the way the red head had reacted to his little joke Barnabus let out a bark of laughter. "Relax kid I'm just teasing you." He said smiling. "I have no intention of fighting with you. Especially after seeing the way you tore through those lug heads during the fight. You were a wildman and I was glad you were on my side."

Miktes felt his tail begin to thrash from side to side a little at the compliment. "Really?"

"Yeah really." Barnabus assured with a nod. After putting out his cigarette in the ashtray he had brought over to the window the Jack captain continued talking in a quiet tone. "You're a strong guy Miktes. Not to mention creative." The Jack winced as he recalled certain parts of the fight from earlier. "I don't think those enforcers even knew how to react to the way you fought. I was... I was really, really impressed with you out there."

Hearing his mate praise him so openly made a strange feeling blossom in Miktes chest. An odd warmth that tingled and made him grin goofily as he sat there cross legged on the bed. But as soon as he realized that he was smiling from said feeling the Verdomian quickly frowned trying to hid how happy he was. "Ok, I take back what I said." He said sticking his nose up in the air arrogantly. "You kinda fight really good for a submissive and all. Just as good as me maybe."

Barnabus rolled his eyes trying not to think of how many double negatives were in that last sentence. Even when complimenting someone he still had to insult them a little. But it was ok with him. He had meant what he had said about the way the younger man had fought and even though he gave him a backhanded compliment he knew Miktes felt the same way about him. Almost like he could actually feel the Verdomian's feelings in the back of his mind. Of course there was one thing that did bother him about what he had just said.

"You know, I'd be more inclined to believe what you just said if you'd use my name for once." Barnabus said with a smirk. In all the time he had known Miktes, He could only recall once or twice that the redhead had used his actual first name instead of calling him "Human", "Mate, or "Submissive".

Miktes gave a huff at the request and looked down at his lap. He supposed it was true that he should start using the human's actual name by now. All the mated couples like his parents back home referred to each other by name not title. It had just felt more natural to call his mate by those names because of the perceived disrespect the hairy man had shown him.

But, after given everything that had happened, the green skinned man bit down his refusal and looked straight into the older man's amber eyes. "You fight real good Barnabus." He corrected himself stiffly. "Just as good as me maybe."

"See now, was that so hard." Barnabus said a bit condescendingly. "But thank you anyway. I'm just glad that Ekkar was too much of a coward to actually join his men. We really would have been in trouble if he had stepped in. I never could beat that firedrake when we used to spar."

At the mention of his mate and their enemy doing something together in the past Miktes snorted. "That man again." He growled. "I really wish he had picked a fight with me. Would have used both my fists to knock his damned teeth out of his smirking mouth. Teach him for touching you back in that food place."

"You would have drawn blood for little ol' me?" Barnabus said doing an impression of a stereotypical southern bell. When Miktes looked at him like he had just grown a second head Barnabus burst out into laughter. "Sorry, sorry I just couldn't help doing that." He explained wiping away tears. "But I would have loved to see you hit him. Trust me after everything he's done the bastard has it coming." At the reminder of everything his ex had done to him Barnabus suddenly grew quiet. The memories running through his mind in a sudden rush.

Miktes too grew quiet as he sensed that something was wrong with his older mate. It was only when he had enough of this pregnant pause in their conversation that Miktes spoke up again with a question that had been burning on the tip of his tongue ever since earlier that morning. "What exactly is it between the two of you anyway?" He asked. "I know you two used to rut a lot or something like that. But how close were you?"

Barnabus raised an eyebrow at the extremely personal question. "How in heck do you know about that?" He asked back. He knew for a fact that he had ever told the alien about his past relationship with Fidraon.

Miktes instantly felt guilty as he was scrutinized by the intensely angry look he was on the receiving end of. "Your skinny servant with the blond hair told me after I cornered him in his torture room." He admitted shyly. For some reason he felt ashamed that he had learned such private information about the human behind his back. "He said that the two of you were together but that you "broke up". Though I gotta admit I really didn't get all of what he meant by that."

Barnabus halfheartedly continued to glare at the Verdomian for several moments. Both a little mad and disappointed that him and Alfred had been talking about him behind his back. Who was the alien to scare his friend into telling him the private details of his life? It wasn't any of his business.

However... as he continued to sit there in the near dark, the flickering TV screen bathing them both in its dim gray glow, Barnabus eventually came to the conclusion that Miktes hadn't meant any offense by asking. He was just curious and it wasn't like his failed relationship with the Fidraon was a secret. Ekkar had made sure of that by telling everyone that he knew about how Barnabus had foolishly left him.

Giving a sigh and bumping his head against the large windowsill he was sitting in Barnabus decided to just let it all out. Maybe it would make him feel better to get it all off of his chest again. "Ok, if you really got to know; yeah me and Ekkar were lovers about... eighteen years ago." He began. "I'm not too proud of that little fact. I was just twenty-three at the time and young, dumb, and full of cum. He talked dirty to me for a couple of minutes and the next thing I know I'm in his bedroom with my pants down around my ankles and his claws cupping my backside."

"It was that easy to get you into bed." Miktes remarked with a snort. "I find that really hard to believe." If that were true then why the hell had he been having trouble bedding the fussy human? With all his sexual prowess Barnabus should have been his in mere moments.

Barnabus rolled his eyes at the other man. "Well unlike you, Ekkar had charm, grace, and..." He looked down to Miktes' crouch. "...Never mind you trump him down there." He admitted, much to his own surprise. "But anyway, it was a hot and heavy. For all his faults Ekkar the asshole does know how to do one thing right. He could make me scream his name and then beg for more. Eventually had me eating out of his hands and well... you know?"

Miktes frowned not liking hearing about Barnabus and Ekkar having sex. "Yeah I'm getting the idea."

Barnabus gave the other man a quick smirk and continued on with his little story. "After a few nights and days of fun the two of us just sort of fell into a relationship. We were together all the time. We went out to diner, spent vacations together, hell I even moved out of my own quarters and lived with him in his swanky captain quarters." The dark haired man sighed. "It was just all so wonderful being with him... of course back then I was too blinded by the sex and fun to realize that I wasn't exactly the only man that Ekkar had between the covers. Walked in on him and one of our medics one night when I finished my shift early."

"He was rutting with others while you and him were together!" Miktes said scandalized. When Barnabus nodded to what he had said the warrior let out an angry growl and snarled. It seemed that the more he found out about this Ekkar person the more found to dislike.

Sure his people, especially young dominates like him would often sleep around with others when unmated, casual sex just a part of being a young person. But once you were with someone that was over and you never, ever sought out sex with another partner. It was disrespectful to your mate and to your upbringing. If Ekkar had been a Verdomian the whole village would have been in an uproar and he'd be sentenced to death for doing such a thing.

Feeling the waves of anger coming off the other man Barnabus quickly snapped his fingers and drew his attention back to him. "Calm down, we weren't mated or anything Mickey. All we were doing was dating." Barnabus replied with a tired look. "Ekkar would never go as far as to actually get hitched."

Saying that seemed to be a sore spot for Barnabus, the bearded man taking a deep breath. "Like I just told you he's a player who likes screwing around with humans. Thinks we're exotic or something. When I found out I tried to make him promise to stop seeing other guys behind my back. All he said back though, was that it was just the way things were going to have to be with us if I wanted to stay with him. I agreed at first cause I thought I cared about him, but it just felt wrong to me."

"Is that why you broke up?" Miktes wondered, still a little bit peeved.

"Naw, we broke up cause of something else that he did to me." When Miktes scooted to the edge of the bed and gave him a curious expression, Barnabus frowned and gave another sigh. He supposed that he was going to be giving his whole life story to the younger man that night. "Me and the unit I was a part of on Ekkar's team were sent out to bring in this bounty on this hot as balls desert planet. Ekkar told us that the guy wasn't supposed to be that dangerous, just some small time Tokajin criminal who stole from the wrong person."

Miktes scratched at the top of his head, hearing the strange name. "What's a Tokajin?"

"They're these big lizard guys with claws and fangs." Barnabus replied back casually. "The one we were after liked to wear dark colored Warg armor."

Getting a description of these creatures made Miktes' breath hitch. That was what the monster in that dream he had after getting mated looked like. But... how could that be? It wasn't like he had ever seen such a being before he had boarded his mate's flying house. It just couldn't be a coincidence there had to be something to it. Hearing Barnabus start up his story again Miktes made sure to pay closer attention to what he was saying. Maybe there was more he could learn about his dream from sitting there while his mate spoke about his history.

Not noticing the way his companion had just reacted to what he just said, Barnabus continued with the retelling of the fateful mission that had changed his life. "It took us two hours of searching through the desert to finally find out where our mark was hiding. An old I.U.G. military bunker that had seen better days. We were all a bunch of young and cocky bastards so we charged right in there without a second thought. It was only then that we realized that we should have been smarter and called for reinforcements."

"Why?" Miktes interrupted. "Going in ready for a fight is what true warriors do all the time."

"No it's not. It's just stupid." Barnabus said with a shake with his head. "That "small time" Tokajin crook we were there to get wasn't what we had been told. He was some big time crime boss and he had heavy assault weapons... a lot of heavy assault weapons." The older man bit his lower lip remembering what happened next. "He fire on us as soon as we stepped through a door and pinned me and my team in a narrow hallway. I commanded one of the guys to call for Ekkar and some backup but he never got was able to make the call. Before he could finish that Tokajin crime boss busted right into the corridor we were taking cover in and slaughtered my team. Only reason I'm alive is because I saw him coming for me next and was able to unload my laser weapon right into his chest before he could strike."

Miktes sat on the edge of his seat, truly curious about what happened next. "Did you avenge your fellow warriors?" He asked. "Did you kill that creature and make him sorry for what he did?"

"I tried but my weapon wouldn't make a scratch in his dammed armor." Barnabus said angrily. "I was able to stun him and knock his ass out though cause of the impact thank god. Ekkar and a second squad showed up a few hours later when we didn't return. He was actually more pleased that I captured the bounty then he was upset about losing our men. I was so pissed at him."

Standing up and clenching his hands, Barnabus let out a small growl as he remembered the smile on the Fidraon's face. "Then I go and find out that he knew how dangerous this guy was." He continued barely able to hold in his contempt. "That he sent us out there not caring how many of us lived or died. Just that we got him his damned bounty!"

"He sent you to die?" Miktes gasped. "But you were h-his lover. He couldn't possibly have done something that shitty."

"Didn't matter to him." Barnabus told him. "All he cared about was the bounty. Ekkar didn't even try pretending to like he was sorry. Just said it was business and that I should stop acting like a bad boy. I slugged him in the face after he said that and when we got back to Aquarii I quit his crew and promised myself that I'd never get involved with anyone like I was with him again." The Jack captain turned so that he was facing Miktes and inhaled and exhaled deeply a few times trying to calm himself. "About a year later I bought the Wild Comet on loan and started my own Jack crew. One where I'd make sure that everyone one was safe and no one died."

Miktes sat there in shocked silence as the older man finished speaking. To think that someone had done that to his submissive made the Verdomian's blood boil and his whole being vibrate with pure unadulterated rage and hatred. Right then and there Miktes promised himself that the next time he saw that lizard he's skin him and make clothing out of his worthless blue hide. He went to tell Barnabus just that, but when he did the warrior saw the state the human was in. His submissive looked like he was on the verge of breaking down. Something that shocked Miktes to his very core and caused him to believed that he might just do the same. "I'd never do that to someone." Miktes suddenly found himself saying.

Barnabus, who had been looking at an interesting spot on the floor mentally drained, blinked and looked over to the other man when he realized that Miktes had said something. "W-What?" He said quietly.

"I said I'd never do something that awful to someone." Miktes clarified. Making sure to make direct eye contact the redhead gave his mate a serious look and continued. "And any man who would do a thing like that to someone, let alone someone he cares 'bout ain't a real man at all. I know that I'd never do that to you." Suddenly realizing what he just said Miktes blushed and quickly turned away. "N-Not that I care about you or anything like that human."

Barnabus couldn't help the warm chuckle that escaped his lips when he heard everything the alien had just said. "I know what you meant." He said walking over to the bed and sitting down next to the younger man. "But thanks anyway." Giving Miktes a weak looking smile the bearded man patted Miktes on the leg, his hand idling there for a few moments after he finished. "You know when you're not being a grumpy jackass you can say some sweet things once and awhile."

What happened next, Barnabus would be embarrassed about later. It was a total breech of what he had promised himself he was going to do concerning the other man. But sitting there in that dark room after having said all those things, he just acted on instinct. Leaning forward he gently pressed his bearded lips against Miktes' in a chaste kiss. For a moment the Verdomian didn't know what to do, much too surprised at what his mate had just done.

But after a few moments of the strange new sensation he pulled back and stared at the other man with shock. "What the hell did you do that for?" He asked, voice coming out a little more rough then he had intended.

Barnabus felt his face heat up as his senses came back to him with an almost audible snap. He was supposed to be keeping his distance from the alien not trying to lock lips with him. "I-I'm sorry I just... dam I don't know what the hell I was thinking." He apologized quickly. "I didn't mean to make you upset by doing that. It was just me being stupid."

Barnabus tried to get up off of the bed but was stopped when Miktes grabbed him by his loud Hawaiian shirt and pulled him back down. "I wasn't upset or nothing." He explained with a frown. "It's just, what the hell was it?" He tapped his mouth. "The lip thing?"

"The kiss?" Barnabus said genuinely confused. "Don't you Verdomians kiss each other?" When Miktes looked back at him matching his puzzlement, the Jack gave a relieved sigh. He had heard that some races didn't take part oral kissing before, even when they were coupled. But those species were far and few between. He guessed the Verdomian were one of those species and that only made what he tried to do more awkward. "Well... you see that thing I just tried to do to you was a kiss." He said scratching an imaginary itch on his chin. "It's sort of how we show affection up here in space." Barnabus paused growing curious. "How do your people do that?"

Miktes seemed to mull over answering for a moment then shrugged and took the human's large palm in his. "We do this." Miktes began as he pressed the bridge of his nose against his submissives knuckles. "It's supposed to show that we trust the person we're doing it to. You could hit me on the back of the head and kill me right now if I weren't careful."

Placing his hand on the back of Miktes head, Barnabus gave him a gentle rub and snickered. "I don't think I'd do that to you kiddo. Probably break my hand on that hard noggin of yours." He teased. "Then you'd just get right back up and start barking at me because I hit you."

Miktes snapped his eyes back up at the human with a glare. But before he could start growling the warrior found himself snickering himself at the insult, his anger fizzling out before it really took hold. "Dam right that's what would happen." He said smugly as he sat back up and thumbed his chest. "Mama always said I had a thick skull."

The pair shared in a quick laugh before Miktes hesitantly spoke again while scratching the back of his neck. "You know, I sort of liked it." He said looking over to Barnabus. "The kiss, felt sorta... good." Giving the human a strange look, the alien tilted his head from side to side for a moment as if thinking. Then suddenly he lurched forward and gave the Jack a clumsy kiss. Slowly but firmly pressing his green lips against Barnabus' and humming as a new fluttering sensation formed in his belly.

Now it was Barnabus' turn to be stunned by his companion's forwardness. But unlike Miktes, he knew exactly what to do as their impromptu make out session grew longer. Smiling against the other man's mouth, Barnabus reached up and cupped the orc's green cheek. His gentle touch had the effect he had desired, the redhead opening his mouth in a small gasp that allowed him to go even further and push his tongue into his tusked mouth.

Miktes unconsciously closed his as he allowed his mate explore his mouth with his curious probing tongue. By the strangers why hadn't his people ever considered doing something like this before!? It felt amazing. The sensations, the taste of his mate's mouth. It didn't take long for Miktes to find himself enjoying what they were doing a little too much, his cock hardening in his tight shorts and his skin heating up with a fire that was all too familiar to him.

Instantly understanding what was happening, the young warrior pushed the other man away and pouted at him. "I-I wanna stop now." Miktes said unconvincingly. "I'm starting to feel the fever lust so get out. I need to tug and make it go away."

Barnabus was a little disappointed by the sudden end to their kissing and frowned to himself. He too was starting to feel that dammed fever rear its ugly head. His body becoming too hot to stand as they had continued. But... he really didn't feel like leaving the room and going off somewhere for some alone time like he had done back on the ship. No, he had another idea. And as much as a certain annoying little voice in the back of his head told him it was a bad idea, another louder voice told him to go on and do it. In the end it was that second voice that won the internal battle.

"The hell with it." Barnabus said with a huff. "You win Mickey."

Miktes raised an eyebrow ridge. "I win what?" Were they having some sort of competition that he didn't know of?

"You win." Barnabus restated. Chuckling at the continued bewilderment of the green skinned man the Jack captain stood up and started to unbutton his gaudy multicolored shirt. "I'm going to let you have what you've been asking for ever since we met." He explained further over his shoulder "You know... we're going to have sex. That is... if you still want to."

Miktes instantly jumped up on the bed, shifting onto all fours as he stared up to his mate with unbelieving eyes. "You're going to let me rut with you?" He said, clearly getting excited.

"Yeah I suppose I am." Barnabus turned around to face the other man, his now open shirt giving the Verdomian a prime view of his hairy chest and beer belly. "But know this kid: The only reason I'm doing this is because of the fever lust and because we need some major downtime after everything today. It's just sex nothing more nothing less and we go at it by my terms." Holding out his hand for Miktes to take he waited for the Verdomian to agree to his offer.

Miktes tiled his head to the side for a moment not fully understanding what the outstretched hand meant, but then he slowly lifted his four fingered hand and took hold of it. "Ok..." He said agreeing to what had been offered. He'd be crazy to decline getting a chance to sate the fire coursing through his veins and straight down to his dick. "...It'll just be sex. Like what I did back at my village with the submissives there."

"Good." That bit of business out of the way Barnabus slipped off his shirt and then proceeded to push down his shorts. He stopped though when he noticed that Miktes was watching him like a dog watching a juicy steak being dangled in front of his eyes. It was flattering to be sure but at the same time it was a little uncomfortable. "You planning on getting naked too" The Jack asked trying to divert attention away from his disrobing. "Or are you planning on screwing around with your drawers on?"

Miktes reacted to the asked question by flopping onto his back on top of the bed while frantically yanking at the belt to his ceremonial clothing trying to undress as fast as he could. Barnabus chuckled at the eagerness his soon to be bedmate. "Calm down kid, let me undress you, ok?" He said smiling. "Don't want you ruining that fancy outfit you insist on always wearing."

Going over to the bed Barnabus helped the younger man to loosen the leather belt which was wrapped around his waist and then went to remove the primitive man's black shorts and loincloth. "Ready to show me what you're got?" He asked in a teasing tone.

"You already seen me naked." Miktes was quick to point out. Had the human forgot about seeing his dick all those times? He didn't think he was that stupid. "Just go on and do it submissive." He said slipping back into his old mentality for a moment. "I'm getting tired of feeling my dick rubbing against the fabric."

"Oh, I'm back to being called submissive now am I?" Barnabus said with a coy smile as he peered over Miktes' big green belly. "Maybe... I should just change my mind and leave you all hard in your shorts. I'm you'd rather just play with yourself instead of doing stuff with another warm body. That is unless I hear something that'll change my mind right now."

Miktes gave an annoyed huff and bit his bottom lip, refusing outright to say the words that the other man was groping for. But after his member throbbed and ached in his tight shorts he quickly changed his mind. "I'm sorry ok!?" He mumbled his face growing red. "I'm sorry... Barnabus"

Barnabus smirked at the forced apology and gave the other man what he wanted. The older man hooking his thumbs in Miktes' shorts and slowly lowering them until they slipped off the alien's bare feet. Looking back up once he was finished Barnabus was excited to see the Verdomian's half erect member resting against the other man's thigh. It was a nice piece of equipment despite all the cracks he had made about its length and size. A shade darker than the rest of Miktes' body, thick as a three of his fingers, and veiny with a dull red head.

The middle aged man could actually feel his mouth water as he slowly reached up and wrapped his hand around the alien's girth. "Fuck your huge." Barnabus admitted in a whisper. "I bet you made a lot of people happy with this thing." Moving his hand the Jack began to stroke the cock in his palm, his attention causing the half engorged organ to pulse and fill with blood until it was as hard as Corcalva steel. "I think... I'm actually going to play submissive for you for a bit." He said getting down on his knees. "That is if you don't mind me having a taste."

Miktes sat up and vehemently shook his head. What was he crazy!? "Do it. " The warrior said huskily, eyes dilated and breathe short from being touched. "I want you to do it... p-please." Dam it, that word was hard to say.

Barnabus gave a light snort, impressed that the alien had the fortitude to remember to ask for what he wanted. It showed that Miktes could actually play nice when prompted with the right stimuli. Licking his lips the bearded man got between Miktes' legs as they hung over the side of the bed and placed his hands on the alien's thighs, then after taking a deep breath, Barnabus quickly reminded himself that this was just sex and leaned forward, slowly running his tongue along the length of the heated flesh he was about to become reacquainted with.

At the touch of the slick tongue languidly caressing his member, Miktes gave a rumbling sigh and peered down at Barnabus' head with hunger. Why was he so sensitive all of a sudden? All the human had done was gently lick at his cock. There had been hundreds of times in the past when he had received a suckling from an eager submissive. However, all those times were never as intense as what was happening right now. What was worst was that these overwhelming feelings only increased tenfold when Barnabus moved on from his infernal licking and started to nibble on the head, swallowing him a moment later in one quick movement. Miktes dark green Verdomianhood becoming encased in what was the warm wetness his mate's mouth.

"Fuck!" Miktes cursed as his eyes rolled back into his head. Moaning, the large man ran his fingers though the older man's hair and began to grunt and whimper as his meat was nursed on loudly. "By the strangers... yes... keep on like that submi... submiss... B-Barnabus!" He mumbled, tail thrashing wildly behind him. "P-please Barnabus, don't stop!"

Barnabus chuckled around the flesh in his mouth as his ears caught the begging going on above him. Who knew that his little Verdomian actually knew how to ask for something so nicely? 'Wait, did I just call him my Verdomian!' Barnabus thought in a panic. 'No... no, it was Just a little slip. I didn't mean that I don't think of him as mine. Just a small slip that means nothing.' Deciding to get his mind off of what he had just thought the Jack began to bob his head up and down on the cock between his lips, slurping obscenely as he continued to fellate the other man using a few tricks he had learned from a trick one drunken night.

A shudder escaping his body as the torturous sucking increased in intensity, Miktes fell backwards onto the bed, wrappers and snack cakes getting crushed under his weight, and bit back a groan as he laid there. What was the human trying to do? Drain him of all his fluids? If it were true then maybe he would just go ahead and let him because there was no way he was going to make him stop now. With his eyes starting to roll into the back of his skull and his toes curling the warrior felt himself coming to the edge of no return in a matter of minutes. Soon he would spill his seed into the other male's mouth and embarrass himself again by coming from such little attention.

Luckily for the warrior's pride though, Barnabus sensed how close his partner was to coming and pulled off with an audible pop as Miktes' thick cock left his mouth. "Ah-ah not yet kid." He smirked when he got an irritated growl from stopping. "We wouldn't want you to just cum that easily now would we?"

"Why not!" Miktes demanded to know with a huff. Of all the frustrating things to do to him. He was about to cum and he was not going to be denied. Sitting back up the younger man tried to gently convince his companion to return his mouth to his still rock hard cock by grabbing him by the back of the head. Unfortunately Barnabus was quicker than the other man and ducked out of reach as Miktes' hand tried to grab him. "Come on..." Miktes said in a near whine when he missed. "Stop making fun of me! I was acting all nice and junk finish the job!"

"Yeah you were." Barnabus said putting his finger up to the upset man's lips. "But I'm afraid you're not the only one who needs a little attention tonight. We're equals in doing this." Getting to his feet with a grunt, the older man stood up with a stretch and allowed his loose shorts to fall down to his ankles. When he heard the sharp intake of breath coming from in front of him he smirked and looked back down. Not surprised in the least to see a certain pair of red eyes focused entirely on his weeping shaft. "You think you could show the little comet down there some attention for a bit?" Barnabus asked kicking the last piece of clothing he had across the room. "I'm sure him and me both will appreciate it a lot."

"You... want me to suck you again?" Miktes said dubiously. Sure he had done it back on the ship but that was when he was blinded by the mating lust. His mate honestly couldn't expect him to demean himself like that again. He was a dominate and dominates got sucked on not the other way around. However, upon glancing up at the hairy man he saw that he did expect him to do it again, Barnabus raising a bushy eyebrow and nodding down to his erection with a grin. "Fine, I'll do it." Miktes said with a long and loud sigh. "But don't you tell no one, you got it."

"I promise not to tell anyone how badly you suck cock." Barnabus assured the worried man.

"Well good then cause... HEY!" Miktes glared at his confounded mate, a growl erupting from his throat. "Are you insulting the way I suckled on you dick last time!?" He asked in outrage.

"Pretty much." Barnabus shrugged. "You are an amateur. You said so yourself, remember?"

"I'll show you an amateur!" Moving forward Miktes tried to swallow Barnabus cock in one clumsy go. But all the inexperienced cocksucker ended up doing was gag himself as the blunt head of Barnabus penis hit the back of his throat. Pulling off imminently the younger man coughed and snorted as his face turned red both from his exertions and from his own embarrassment. "That don't prove nothing." He said peering up to Barnabus, his eyes bleary.

"Yeah it does, it proves that you just need to be taught how to do it and fortunately for you Mickey I'm expert on giving blow jobs." With a laugh Barnabus stepped back and motioned for Miktes to lie down on the bed horizontally. "Go on and get on your back on the bed. I'll show you how to do it right if you want."

Miktes narrowed his eyes. Who was this uppity submissive to think he could teach him anything. He was the one in charge despite what he had just tried to do. If anyone should be the teacher here it should be him. Then again... Barnabus did do a good job moments ago. Maybe if he learned what he had done he'd be able to make the human writhe as much as he did when getting sucked on. Harrumphing at the indignity of it all the redhead scooted back on the bed, sweeping off the remaining wrappers and cakes from the top as he did, and took his place on the flat surface. "Like this?" He asked.

Barnabus nodded to the question and began to climb onto the bed himself. "Ok now just hold still while I get into position myself." Trying to be as careful as he could the Jack captain clumsily climbed over the laying orc and settled himself on all fours over him his head pointed towards the bottom of the bed, Miktes' still hard cock right in his face. "How's the view down there?" He asked, waggling his hips a little.

Miktes had to close his eyes as the human's balls were draped over his nose and his lips were gently prodded a few times by his mate's maleness. "You got your junk in my face human." He said stating the obvious. "What the hell am I supposed to do like this?"

"Just copy what I do." Barnabus instructed. Opened his mouth, the bearded man once again began to fellate the man under him. The new position making the long green organ in his mouth descend deeper into his gullet as he began to suck and tease it without mercy.

For a few moments Miktes just laid there his mind once again short-circuiting as he was suckled on and the heady scent of his mate's crouch cascaded over his senses, it wasn't until Barnabus growing impatient hit him in the face again with his hanging cock that the dazed warrior remembered that he supposed to be learning how to give a proper suckling.

Miktes understood now why they had shifted into the odd new position. It made it much easier to give pleasure and receive pleasure, both of them able to suckle at the same time. It seemed that Barnabus' people actually had some hidden talents when it came to sex. The Verdomian only hoped that he'd be able to learn a few of these secrets before the night was over. Going to start his lesson, Miktes opened wide and hesitantly began to suck on the organ above him, trying his best to copy what the hairy creature above him was doing as his face burned.

It was awkward giving his inexperience, though Miktes would never admit it out loud, but eventually he got the gist of what he was supposed to do and began to massage the stiff rod he had between his lips with his tongue. At first Miktes felt that he might not have been doing that good of a job, Barnabus barely reacting al all to what he was doing. But then a moan reached his pointy ears. Soft at first but definitely there. The quiet sound was then followed by another moan and then another and then shaky huff and a groan, each of the sounds growing louder and louder as time went on.

Soon Barnabus was groaning and snorting above him like a madman, the human shallowly thrusting down into his gullet with small whimpers that made Miktes proud to hear. To think he had his smartassed mate at his mercy now, seeking pleasure from him which he could just as easily take away at any time. That simple thought was both empowering and somehow strangely arousing. 'That'll show him to say I don't know what I'm doing.' He thought smugly.

'Dam this dummy is easy to trick.' Barnabus chuckled to himself as they continued to sixty-nine. 'Almost makes me feel... fuck that's good.... Almost makes me feel sorry I tricked him into giving me a BJ.'

The two continued on in silence for several long pleasurable minutes. Barnabus sucking and teasing every inch of his partner's member while Miktes tried his best to keep up and return the favor he was receiving from the human. It was Miktes who finally lost the battle to stave off orgasm. The Verdomian becoming over stimulated when he began to taste his mate's pre leaking from his cock and his nose tingling at the increased scent of the other man's arousal. Purring like a content cat the younger man let out three sharp yelps around the flesh in his tusked mouth and came hard, his cock expanding a little in the surprised Barnabus' mouth as thick yellowish seed shot from the tip and down the middle-aged man's throat.

Barnabus instantly recoiled as his mouth was filled with salty alien seed and sat up, his cock slipping from Miktes' mouth and his ass accidentally coming down right on his companions face. "Dam Mickey you could have warned a guy." Barnabus said swallowing what had been given to him. "I almost... Miktes?"

Failing to get any sort of response from behind him Barnabus peered over his shoulder and gave an embarrassed laugh as he saw what he was sitting on. "Oops, sorry about that." He said, starting to lift himself off of the other man. However before the Jack could free his captive, Miktes let out a deep growl and firmly held him in place. The orc's four fingered hands holding him down with enough strength that would surely leave bruises come the morning. "Mickey, what the hell do you think you're doing?!" Barnabus said a little panicked. "You're going to suffo... suffoca... oh god yes!"

Completely ignoring what the shorter man was saying Miktes had begun to aggressively eat out the human's unprotected ass. He just couldn't help himself after having that hairy furrow pressed right into his stunned face. Licking and prodding with abandon, Miktes aggressively rimmed the other man's ass much to his own belief. He knew it was demeaning, that it was disgusting, and completely something a submissive should never be doing for him not the other way around. But oh how he was enjoying it. The gamy musk assaulting his nose, the taste of his mate's sweat on his tongue, and most of all the sounds and cries of passion coming from his submissives lips as he drove his tongue into the human's tight pucker. It was enough to almost... no it was enough to make him grow hard as a rock once more and cum for the second time that night.

Roaring into the crack he was ravishing Miktes erupted, a very surprised Barnabus watching as he rode the other man's face as jet after jet of thick cum splattered across the green man's belly and chest. A few powerful shots actually going as far as to land on the human's thighs as well. Slowing down as Miktes began to go limp under him Barnabus was finally able to free himself from his grip and shakily get off of the bed. Looking down as he stood the bearded man watched as Miktes licked his chops and stared up at him with half lidded eyes. "You alright?" He asked patting the younger man on the chest.

"Yeah I'm fine." Miktes said taking a gulp of air. "Just give me a few moments and I'll be ready again."

Barnabus gaped at the younger man. "You want to do more!?" He asked incredulously. "B-But you just came twice in ten minutes! You should be in a coma by now!"

"Verdomian's cum several times when we rut." The other man said matter-of-factly. "I can keep going all night unlike you."

"Oh yeah?" Smirking Barnabus walked out of the room much to Miktes' surprise. For a moment the warrior wondered if he should go after his mate, but just as he was about to the older man reappeared with a bottle of something in his hand. "Flip on all fours Mickey, I'll show you going all night." He said smugly.

"I ain't going to let you fuck me submissive." Miktes growled fully understanding why he had just been asked to move. "I'm the one who's going to be doing that not you."

Barnabus stood still for a moment looking at Miktes with a steady gaze. "Miktes... remember you promised to go at things on my terms." he reminded him.

"Yeah but... I didn't think you meant something like this." The Verdomian reasoned. "I just thought you meant we be doing it at your pace."

Barnabus went over and placed his hand on Miktes' belly. "Come on... at least give it a try. Have I let you down once since we started doing this?" Looking down at the other man, Barnabus flipped the lid off of the bottle of lube he had found in the bathroom and squeezed a little onto his finger. "Come one let me start with one finger and see how you feel about it. That is unless a certain big bad warrior like you is afraid that he might like it."

"I ain't falling for that human again." Miktes growled. He had known dam well what the human had done when mocking his cock sucking skills. He wasn't that stupid. But in the end he knew Barnabus was right he had agreed to do things his way so he had to keep his word. "Fine... I'll let you do it." The redhead relented. "But only if you promise me you'll let me breed your ass later as a reward."

Barnabus felt his cock twitch at the thought of having the Verdomian's large member inside of his body. It had been awhile since someone had used a cock that size on his middle-aged ass. "Ok it's a deal." He said smiling. "Go on and get on all fours for me, let me show you why I love getting to bottom sometimes."

"I highly doubt that I'll see anything special about it." Miktes groused as he flipped over onto his belly and got onto his forearms and knees. "How's this?" He said looking past his shoulder.

"You're a natural kid." Barnabus said getting back onto the bed. Scooting to the bottom of the piece of furniture they were on, the bearded man kneeled behind his partner and stared at his ass for a moment. Miktes certainly had a nice backside. Nice and plump with just the right amount of lard giving olive green colored half-moons a pleasant roundness. If he wasn't sure that it would enrage the Verdomian, Barnabus would have given into the impulse he had to give it a sharp slap to see if it jiggled the way he liked. But he was too smart to ruin the opportunity he had been given. He would show this arrogant top that things could be just as good on the bottom.

Sticking out his tongue between his lips in concentration, Barnabus worked a little more of the lube onto his finger as he pried apart the large asscheeks in front of him with his free hand. Here like mostly everywhere else on the alien, there was no hair. It was strange to see such hairless skin in a place like this, but also very erotic in some way. Pushing that thought aside however Barnabus pressed his slickened finger against the hidden pucker he had exposed and then playfully circled it. "You ready?" He asked before he pressed on.

"Just do it already! I ain't nervous." Miktes said his head hanging between his arms, body shaking a little as he did begin to worry.

Barnabus noticed the tension building in the younger man's form and gave a soft chuckle. "Calm down Mickey." He almost cooed. Hoping to relax the other man he started to gently rub his side until Miktes seemed to calm a little. "I won't just jam it in there. I know how to go slow and make you enjoy it."

Getting to work, Barnabus slowly but persistently pushed the tip of his finger into Miktes' tight pucker. At first there was a little resistance but after a quick surprise tickle against the younger man's ribs it slipped it with ease. Then taking a deep breath and concentrating the human began to move it just a little, working more and more of the digit into Miktes' body. It was a little bit of tough going but eventually he was able to work it in to the first knuckle. "How's it feeling?" He asked looking up to Miktes face.

"It's strange." Miktes replied honestly. It didn't hurt as much as he had thought it would. In fact it actually felt a little good. Not that he was going to say it out loud. "I don't see what's so great about it though."

"You will." Smirking Barnabus withdrew his finger and then thrust forward. When his quick movements made Miktes make a strange sound that sounded suspiciously like a stifled moan he was encouraged to try it again, and then again, and then again. Soon those moans weren't so stifled anymore, Miktes huffing and gritting his teeth as unexpected moans escaped from his mouth like water pouring from faucet.

Growing bold at hearing the sounds coming off the younger man, Barnabus slipped in his second finger and then a third into his prepping, Miktes barely noticing what that he was doing it as his hole stretched and accommodated the added girth. "You see what's so special about it now kid?" Barnabus asked with a laugh. "Or are you going to keep denying."

"It's not that great." Miktes lied, body trembling as he was invaded. Sure it felt sort of good but he wasn't going to let the older man have his way. He was a dominate and they fucked asses, not liked having their assed fucked. But all those proud and stubborn ideals fled from the panting Verdomian's as something suddenly sparked and his head flung back in a loud moan. "WHAT THE HELL!" He shouted around a groan.

"And that would be your prostrate!" Barnabus cheered as he jabbed the same spot he had just manipulated again and again. "It's a little harder to hit then a human's but there it is." Gleefully Barnabus watched as Miktes finally let loose and started to moan and groan unabashedly. The heavyset alien wiggling his hips and willingly accepting the pleasure he was giving to him. It would only take a little more time before Miktes finally-

"MORE!" Miktes demanded. "Put another finger up there dam it, you stupid submissive!!"

"I already got four in there Mickey." Barnabus informed him ignoring the rudeness. He knew that all common sense was browbeaten in the Verdomian's mind at the moment. "There aren't anymore."

Miktes growled at being denied more pleasure. "But I want more!" He insisted. There had to be something better than just having these probing fingers working their way in and out of his stretched and itching hole. Maybe Barnabus could... no he couldn't think like that. But... by the strangers he wanted it now. "I actually want that human to fuck me ass!" And that made the warrior grow red-faced as he realized he had just said that out loud.

"You really want me to do that Miktes?" Barnabus asked slowing down. "Cause you said earlier that-"

"-I don't care what I said just go and do it." Miktes huffed. Shamefully the taller man pushed back against Barnabus' hand trying to get a little more friction. "Just hurry up before I realize what I'm saying."

[Barnabus: I grinned to myself as I processed what that needy little orc had just said to me. Am I good at this or what? In about fifteen minutes I've broken down all of the walls in Miktes' mind about being on the bottom and played the younger man like he's a violin. If I were a different person I might have done this to every guy who caught my eyes. Showing off the skills I've had picked up to get as many bedmates as I could handle. But... I realized long ago that I wasn't like that. I couldn't coldly manipulate other people like Ekkar does. Having sex with someone is about sharing pleasure and friendship and what I do doesn't have any sinister intent behind it. I'm just helping the kid realized something that he had probably felt a long time deep down inside of himself. And I'm going to make sure he enjoys what I'm going to do to him to its fullest.]

Moving back a little Barnabus gently slapped Miktes on the ass and responded to what he had just said. "Ok then, kiddo if you really want it. Get on your back so that we can get started."

Miktes complied with what had been asked of him, giving a grunt as he flipped over and looked to the older man with confusion. "You want me on my back?" He asked. "But... how are you going to fuck me like that? My ass is under me."

Barnabus shook his head holding back his laughter. Apparently Verdomian's weren't too creative with sexual positions. "I'm going to fuck you by doing this." He said as he reached down, took hold of Miktes by the ankles and roughly pushed his legs up against the younger man's green chest. "See I can get to your hole nice and easy like this." Showing what he meant, the Jack captain pressed the tip of his harness against Miktes' exposed pucker.

"This ain't how you're supposed to rut." Miktes remarked as he grew used to the peculiar position. "I'm supposed to be bent over so you can mount. Not that I'm happy about doing it mind you."

Barnabus slowly moved his hips back and forth, his cock sliding up and down the liberated crack of his bedmate. "Well while I love doing it doggy style when I get really horny. I'm more partial to missionary when I first have sex with a guy."

"Doggy style? Missionary?" Miktes said his mouth awkwardly working out the strange words. "You actually have words for different things you can do in bed?"

"You should see the Kama sutra sometime, it'd blow you mind." Growing impatient of waiting, the older man lurched up onto his haunches and after motioning for Miktes to hold his own legs and positioned the tip of his achingly hard cock against the Verdomian's anus. "Just remember to stay relaxed, it'll hurt a bit when I first go in."

Miktes took a gulp of air and nodded his head in understanding. He had seen the pained expressions on the faces of the submissives he had penetrated before. They always grimaced and cursed as he shoved his meat into them. He hadn't cared about their struggle back then believing that it was a submissives place to endure his lust. But now he looked back on those times with a bit of shame. If they had been as nervous as he was right now then he should have been a little easier on them he supposed.

This truly was the final barrier to Miktes' wounded Dominance; soon he would be nothing more but a bitch in the eyes to the others back at his village. But as much as that saddened him he was reminded of the pleasure he had just experienced and knew that he had to have more. "Hurry!" He huffed.

"Ok." Moving his hips forward, Barnabus began sliding into the man under him with only the faintest of resistances. As he slowly sank in the Jack looked down to the man he was entering, Miktes screwing his eyes shut as he was penetrated. "Deep breaths Miktes, come one relax." Barnabus reminded. "I'm going in... just a little bit more."

"JUST SLAM IT IN!" Miktes suddenly demanded with a roar. The human above him might have thought that he was some fragile creature as he was impaled, but as soon as that thickness began to work its way into his body the Verdomian was at a loss for words. His body heated up and his cock came to life again, growing hard as a sweet burn began started in his guts as being entered by his destined mate! "FUCK MY ASS BARNABUS!!"

Barnabus startling at the loud order acted on impulse and slammed the rest of the way in in one hard push. "FUCK!" He cursed through gritted teeth as his manhood was surrounded by a the tight and pulsing heat of his alien's lovers innards. "Dam you are tight." He then remarked as he began to thrust weakly. Drawing his hips back ever so slightly before he gyrated back hard and as soon as he made contact he withdrew again and did it again and then again and then again. Eventually he fell into a primal rhythm that was second nature to all life. The human slamming into the ass he was fucking, a dull thwack accompanying his movements as his hairy thighs met Miktes' green skin.

"Yeah that's it human." Miktes said a growl turning into a loud purr as he was fucked. "Pound me... I don't care no more just fuck me... p-please." Instantly the pleading man's mate responded to his demand by moving faster, the bearded creature's hips slapping against his upturned ass with such force that it knocked the breath out of the Verdomian. Again the warrior was surprised by something the older man had suggested, his toes curling and his tongue lolling out of his mouth as he was bred by his submissive.

Really starting to get into what he was doing Barnabus fell forward, Miktes giving a yelp as the human descended on him and connected their lips in a scorching kiss that left them both humming as the younger man's legs bounced up and down on either side of his human mate's hips. "S-Should I slow down a bit?" Barnabus asked pulling away for a moment.

Miktes grabbed the other man's head and crashed their lips together for a quick kiss before he responded. "You do and I'll rip your dammed balls off!" He threatened. Making sure that the man above him didn't try anything the warrior wrapped his arms around the other man's back and held him in place. When he did however, Miktes felt the scars that he had seen in the shower that one time on the other man's back. Even getting pounded the way he was Miktes couldn't help but ask. "Wh-what caused these?"

Barnabus blinked in surprise and slowed down to a stop. "What caused what?"

"These scars?" Miktes clarified. For a moment he trailed his fingertips in the crisscrossing gashes which had healed over.

"Oh..." Barnabus looked away. He had forgotten to keep his shirt on like he usually did. There weren't many that liked seeing his bare back. "That Tokajin actually go in a few swipes to my back. Cut me up something awfully and it sort of felt wrong to have them removed. They're a memoriam to my friends who were killed that day. I know they're not too pretty"

"Are you kidding they're beautiful." Miktes said cocking his head. He couldn't understand why someone would call such battle wounds ugly. Most warriors strived to have such marks. "They show how brave you are. They show you're a survivor." Rocking his hips the Verdomian growled, tilting his head back as the cock inside of him moved and pressed against that same sweet spot as before. "Get back to fucking me... I'm not with you yet."

Barnabus felt his face heating up at the other man's words. No one had actually said they liked his scars. "Sure thing Mr. Green." He said with a lick to the redhead's exposed throat. Finished with talking the shorter man began to move his hips, steadily driving Miktes to orgasm as he kissed and nibbled at any patch of skin he could reach. The Verdomian was just so sexy as they continued on. Moaning and cursing as his ass was roughly pounded by Barnabus' unyielding manhood. His large hands caressing his back like it was the most amazing thing in the world.

{Miktes: As I was fucked so well I could feel my mind clouding over and giving in to what was happening. By the stranger's that fucking cock was amazing. It just kept going in and out and every time it did I felt like screaming cause it was so good. All I could do as I rode it out was hand on and run my fingers in the deep scars on my mate's back as my cock grew hard again and was tickled by Barnabus' hair stomach. I get it now... I get why that nosy guard that helped me through the jungle as I chased after my mate for the first time was saying. There was no shame in this only pleasure. Mind numbing, body tingling, cock hardening pleasure!}

The sounds of Miktes moaning widely echoing through the room told Barnabus that he had set him off once again and with a smile he sped up and jack hammered into the man under him harder. He was going to try and get them off at the same time. It was always fun when he did that. Miktes too wanted to feel his mate cum deep in his ass with him and reached up, taking Barnabus' face between his hands and forcing them into another kiss. Their tongues wrestling as they drove themselves to orgasm. Finally after what seemed like endless hours of fucking both men moaned and clenched eyes shooting wide open as they both came with enough force that Miktes' first shot rocketed up between them and splattered the orc in his green tusked face.

Barnabus gave a sigh as he unloaded his semen into his partner and his heart rate slowed down from the frantic pace it had been keeping during their whole coupling. "Man... that was intense." He said sitting up. Reluctantly the human pulled out of his spent companion, his cock slipping free with a dirty sounding squish as cum dribbled from Miktes' used and raw looking hole. "Can you move Mickey?"

"Y-Yeah." The younger man replied with a huff. He was already missing the feeling of that hot slab of meat inside of his body. "I... I think I'm done having sex for a while now."

Barnabus stared down at the other man for a few moments stunned and confused. Then with a big smile he broke out into laughter and quickly lay down beside the other man. "I should hope so cause there is no way I'm going to get the little comet back up anytime soon." He said. "I'm drained kiddo."

"Humph, guess human's don't have much endurance after all." Curious Miktes reached down and fondled the human's now limp and cum covered cock. When his hand was quickly slapped away he growled and glared up at the human. "What I can't touch!? It's mine remember."

"It's sensitive." Barnabus told him firmly. "And it's not yours; we agreed that what we just did was just for fun. Nothing to do with that mating stuff you keep talking about."

"Yeah but..." Miktes caught himself before he said anymore. Barnabus was right he had agreed to it after all. What they had done was supposed to be just sex not a mating rut. Even if it was the most amazing thing he had ever had the pleasure to go through. "Ok..." The redhead sighed. "But if that's how it's going to be then I want to do it again later tonight."

Barnabus raised an eyebrow and glared at the horny monster in bed next to him. But then he decided that what the hell. He had enjoyed it too and that mating lust was only sated for now he knew. "Sure I guess." He said getting onto his back. "But let me get some sleep first ok?"

"Whatever." Miktes pouted. He didn't like the idea of a long wait. Already he was starting to stiffen from the scents still hanging in the air. "But I'm waking you as soon as I can."

"Oh thank you oh merciful Miktes, First Born Son of Hestry Clan." Barnabus joked as he closed his eyes. "You mind doing something for me first though?"

"What?" Miktes asked with a hesitant nod.

Barnabus sighed and got comfortable. "Keep watch for us... for me please."

Miktes imminently got up from the bed and walked around it. "Sure." He said as he continued over to the window still as naked.

Opening one of his eyes as the younger man walked across the room, Barnabus watched as the uncovered green tinted ass he had been happily thrusting into bounced away. It was only now that he was starting to have second thoughts. What had he just done? He had promised... no swore to himself that he wouldn't allow himself to become attached to the Verdomian. But he had so easily broken it in a moment of weakness. He only hoped that given the morning that he'd be able to figure something out to help him in his stupidity.
