I braced my hands on the wall as he released his full fury upon me.
I reached up with a hand to cup his cheek and he kissed my hand, but his eyes were blazing fire and he fixed them upon me as his own end came and he filled me with his delicious seed.
He collapsed, exhausted, on top of me, taking care once more to ensure he didn’t crush me.
He kissed me gently on the brow, the cheeks, the nose, so much affection for such a large beast.
And we lay there, happy, and deep in my heart I knew that what we had just done hadn’t only been making love.
It was something so, so much more that I couldn’t fully explain.
My feelings of pleasure battled with my sense of guilt, that I had made love to him not for the pure act but for my own ends, and those of the Supervisor.

Lying beside Ceara, cocooned in the dim ambiance of the cell, was an experience I had never anticipated.
His alien physique, with its hard musculature, was otherworldly against the softness of the makeshift bedding.
Each time our bodies brushed against one another, it sent little jolts of electricity through me, stirring a medley of emotions I was still grappling with.
His deep voice rumbled, breaking the comfortable silence. “You know, Ellie, back on my homeworld, when we share stories in intimate settings like this, it’s considered a sacred act.”
I turned my head to gaze at his face, noting how the dim light of the cell played upon the unique contours of his features. “Well,” I began, playfully tracing a pattern on his arm, the texture of his skin, both rough and soft, intriguing beneath my fingers, “maybe we should make it sacred here too. Tell me something you’ve never told anyone before.”
Ceara chuckled, the sound resonating deeply, sending waves of warmth down my spine. “Hmm. Where to begin? All right, when I was a child — well, the Blinker equivalent of a child — I accidentally set free all the spiketail birds from our village’s communal aviary. They’re quite valuable, you see. My family had to work for months to repay the debt.”
Laughing, I imagined a younger, equally mischievous version of Ceara, trying to chase after exotic birds. “That’s quite a confession! I once stole cookies from my grandmother’s kitchen and blamed it on our dog. I still feel guilty about it.”
Ceara grinned, revealing the unique structure of his teeth which always caught the light in fascinating ways. “Seems we both have a mischievous streak.”
Our banter continued, and as the hours melted away, our conversation took deeper turns.
The air between us was thick with stories of the past, dreams of the future, and the palpable present.
“I always dreamt of becoming an adventurer,” I whispered, drawing patterns on Ceara’s chest, feeling the rise and fall of his steady breathing. “When I was little, I’d stare at the horizon for hours, thinking about all the adventures I’d have among the twinkling lights of cities in the distance. But I never imagined my adventure would lie in the depths of space.”
Ceara’s hand enclosed mine, igniting a sense of warmth that seeped through to my core. “In my culture, the cosmos is believed to be a living entity. The stars, they’re not just balls of burning gas but souls, watching over us, guiding our destinies.”
I looked deep into his eyes, their lustrous sheen reflecting the wonder of a thousand galaxies. “Do you think our stars intended for us to meet?”
His fingers paused in tracing my cheek, the sensation sending shivers down my spine.
He leaned back to look me more fully in the eye. “I believe in the Distant Vision. In destiny. We were meant to find each other, Ellie. Even amidst all this chaos.”
There he was, talking about his dream again.
And yet…
And yet, I got the sense to him, it wasn’t just a dream.
It was something genuine and real, something he expected to truly happen some time in the future.
I snuggled closer to him, finding comfort in his embrace.
“As much as I yearn for my home, there’s a part of me,” I hesitated, searching for the right words, “that’s thankful for this journey. Because it led me to you.”
Ceara’s arms tightened around me, the rhythm of our combined heartbeats almost musical in its synchronicity. “We’ll find our way out of here, Ellie. Together.”
