His skin was radiating with warmth, rigid and unyielding as it glistened with iridescent sparkles. The glowing yellow slits that covered his body blinked ever so slightly.

“Did you rest well? You’re not in pain, are you? I hope we were able to control ourselves enough.”

He watched her with ruby eyes, the vertical slits dilating as his chest rose and fell.

They called what had happened controlling themselves?

Giselle took stock of her parts, the scratches at her waist, the ache between her legs, but otherwise unharmed. She was alive. She was okay. She had survived.

“I’m fine.”

A grumbling laugh resonated from behind her.

Thase.

“I knew you were a wise choice,” came his hiss of a voice, one arm squeezing her around her middle. “Taking our cocks like a good little slut. I thought we would tear you apart, but you were ready for us, you naughty human. How many have you taken?”

She thanked whatever deity was listening that Anthony had been so obsessed with anal, probably the only thing that helped her through what had happened.

“Well?” Thase growled, tangling his fingers in her hair and yanking her head back.

“I-I don’t know. A few,” she whimpered, her neck straining as he pulled.

“A few,” Thase muttered before releasing her with a laugh. “More than a few, I think.”

Vrix laughed too, though his was filled with amicability as opposed to icy mockery.

“You did so good. I’m so proud of you. We’ll have a lot of fun together.”

Giselle swallowed hard, trying not to let the words lull her, or the warmth of his embrace. She steeled herself, asking her question before she chickened out.

“When will you take me back to Earth?”

Vrix glanced past her, probably at Thase, before focusing back on her

“We will not be returning to Earth, not unless something happens to you.”

Her heart started racing, a cold sweat beading on her brow.

“What do you mean? What’s going to happen to me?”

Vrix eyed Thase with a grin.

“Thase was too vigorous with our last pet. He got… carried away with the collar.”

She trembled in his arms as the two aliens chuckled lightly.

“Carried away?”

Before Vrix could answer, Thase muttered from behind her.

“Do not blame this all on me. The one before was your fault.”

Icy dread filled her, coiling around her limbs and burrowing into her stomach. She gulped again, her mouth suddenly dry.

“H-How many humans have been your… pet?”

Vrix pursed his mouth, narrowing his eyes like he was thinking carefully.
