A Slave to the Servants Ch. 28

The sentiment brightened them somewhat and everyone grinned.

"Eat," Evan encouraged, patting my back, "this is good for you."

The broth was thick and creamy, the meat chunks in my meal were certainly Paterian. I remembered my Grandmother had often spoken about the sweet potato and how healthy it was. Patting my belly, I hoped she was right.

After lunch Damien went to find the man with assignments. The men weren't sure where they should be.

"Mating," the man told them simply, "you are go to the arena area and wait."

I was dropped in our rooms to sit by myself, but that didn't last long. Nu-reeh came and handed me a bag with knitting needles and fine feeling yarn. The deep blue hue of the material was lovely and it would make a warm, soft blanket.

My jacket and gloves were replaced so I would be cozy and I went with Nu-reeh. She walked with me to the area the men mated in. Several cushions were on the platform for me to rest on. As I sat beside her I felt like a prized poodle.

Knitting with the gloves on was difficult, but I did what Nu-reeh seemed to want and kept them on. Much like the men, I'd do whatever I had to in order to keep her happy. I was lucky not to have fully experienced it, but I understood her anger could be brutal.

My reason for attending this afternoon event soon became apparent. Nu-reeh didn't like leaving me alone. Humans needed companionship and my companions had not arrived, yet. My health was her highest concern and being left alone was not good for me.

The women talked as they watched the men down below. I listened carefully, but tried not to be obvious. They were discussing the rebel females.

"Another female was launched," Tosu said to Nu-reeh, "her female-breeder wore beads and her male-breeder is not named."

Nu-reeh growled, got up, and paced a moment. Her claws seemed to dig into the floor as she walked. The big woman was livid.

"Do they harm them?" Nu-reeh asked hotly. "How do they breed so fast with our stolen men?"

Dinah said she didn't know and then Tosu spoke softly.

"You have heard the claims Nu-reeh, they say the men that live without fear of us have a more potent essence."

The liberal cursing Nu-reeh did had me cringing against my cushions. If I could have run away I would have. Sitting very still, I just prayed not to be the outlet for her frustration.

"You are scaring your human," Tosu said lightly and Nu-reeh crouched before me.

I'd never heard Nu-reeh speak gently. When she did, it terrified me. It was like the calm before the storm, but the storm never came.

"Little slave, I will not hurt you. You are here for your health, agitation is not good for my male offspring. Sit and do your work, but do not fear me."

"Yes, Mistress," I whispered staring up at her.

The answer satisfied Nu-reeh and she went back to the conversation with her Sisters.

"What proof do we have they do not hurt our men?" she asked. "How many times were the boys forced to breed to create these offspring? What threats do they lie at their feet? There are no strong women to protect them. They could suffer anything..."

Tosu motioned down into the pit before us where my family was being beaten and mated.

"They say this does not happen," she said. "The rebels say the men come to them willingly. They protect the men with the same fierceness we would, but they do not make them suffer. The beaded ones claim men are intelligent and can help run the society. Men are powerful in their own way and they do not need to be sequestered away."

The conversation went round and round. I learned that there had been many girls born to the rebels. Several sons had been brought to gatherings to pair them with their families. The rebels were certainly breeding.

"They must continue to bring the little boys to the gatherings," Nu-reeh said cursing again. "It will kill our own if the families are not completed."

Tosu and Dinah agreed. It was generally accepted that if a woman with beads arrived with a son, she must be treated with care. A woman that could breed sons must not be wasted, even if she did steal men. In addition, the stolen men must still be alive to have created offspring. Killing their captors would surely result in their death.

They would have to meet and decide how to deal with these women. For now, women like Tosu would speak to the beaded ones and perhaps persuade them to give back the taken men. This was certainly a time for negotiation and not brute force.

The stolen mens' owners, like Nu-reeh, had been scouring the planet looking for their stolen men or at least signs of them. They had found nothing. No one was sure where or how the men were kept. All that Nu-reeh did know was that they were healthy enough to breed. That comforted her somewhat as she searched.

I was surprised listening to the women. Nu-reeh was a leader, but I had assumed her power was all the result of her physical strength. It seemed Nu-reeh's position was based on political prowess as much as anything.

As I sat and knitted I thought about it. These women were truly mothers to this planet. They weren't just giant, controlling beasts. When a gentle hand or thoughtful consideration was necessary, they could do that. It was enlightening for me.

The mating lasted the prescribed amount of time and I was relieved to see my family coming toward me. I rose and met Damien with a gentle kiss. Kisses for the rest of the family followed and I realized the women were watching us greet one another.

"This is your breeder?" one of the women Damien had mated asked, coming toward me.

Quite suddenly I found myself staring at Nu-reeh's wings as she stepped in front of me. The conversation was polite, but the warning was clear. No one approached me without the big woman's express permission.

I caught Bane's eye and he looked as surprised as I felt.

"Go bathe and take your evening meal," Nu-reeh instructed Damien pointing to the exit. "If you wish to play your games in the stadium the slave sits very near you in a warm, comfortable place."

Damien responded with agreement. I would not be left out of their sight.

We walked back to our rooms and I told Christof in whispered words what I'd heard. He found it as interesting as I had. The women's dealings with the beaded ones was something we were just beginning to learn about, we all found it very interesting. Soon enough we expected Hannah and Kennedy to be earning their beads.

Talking of Hannah made the family tease Damien quietly. His daughter had promised retribution. Knowing Hannah's temper as they did, everyone wondered what she would do.

We walked back to our quiet quarters and I washed the men. The women this time had really enjoyed fighting with them and they were beaten up. My hands rubbed softly, trying to avoid the sore places.

"Perhaps a game after the evening meal would be good," Bane commented stretching his back.

The evening meal came complete with a bowl of strawberries for me. Everything was quiet and normal until two women we knew very well stalked though the men toward our table. Hannah looked livid and her eyes were settled on Damien. Ra followed, but was looking around carefully.

A step before Hannah made it to our table I heard Nu-reeh call her name. Hannah wanted to hiss and spit, I could see that much from her, but she refrained and called politely back to Nu-reeh.

The rest of the men in the hall went back to their food as Nu-reeh approached Hannah.

"You know the rules," she said cooly. "It is inappropriate for you to enter this mountain without first announcing yourself. What has made you forget?"

Hannah straightened her spine at the public rebuke, but it seemed to calm her slightly.

"It is too soon for...my female breeder to have another offspring," Hannah said tightly. "I was surprised to hear she was here."

Nu-reeh seemed unaffected by Hannah's response and demanded she follow protocol. With me in these mountains Nu-reeh would tolerate no aberrations in security right now.

Ra spoke then, "It is a male then? You have my congratulations. My female breeder will send her regards. You have done a great thing."

Nu-reeh seemed to puff with pride for a moment and accepted the accolades.

"You must understand, Hannah," Nu-reeh said in a kinder tone. "Males must be protected at all costs. I cannot have just anyone around your female breeder now. We will have to have a plan for you to come and go. You cannot simply arrive as you are used to doing."

I saw the wheels turning in Hannah's head. Her eyes narrowed as she looked at Damien. There was no way Nu-reeh would allow her to punish him with me around.

"Your protection of my bloodline is greatly appreciated," Hannah said simply.

"Come," Nu-reeh ordered, "they must eat," she motioned to us. "Speak with me and we will arrange what you need, perhaps a short visit after their meal."

"No chuke tonight," Bane laughed under his breath.

"But at least our Brother will live to play another day," Kein finished and they all cracked up laughing.

Hannah and Ra visited later that night in our rooms. She wouldn't touch Damien because then Nu-reeh would ban her. Our daughter wanted to hurt him, though. I think she was surprised he agreed with her.

"I was not honest," he told her. "Even if I did it to help your Mama, I should not have kept it from her. She is family and has a right to know what we are doing. We were treating her as we were trained to, but she is family, not a slave. Family is strong and can best obstacles together. We understand that now."

In my opinion, seeing the sincerity on his face as he spoke went a long way to soothe Hannah's temper. She knew her father inside and out. He did not like secrets in the family. When he'd said he did this to make it easier for me, it was the truth. His enlightenment also seemed to make her happy.

We talked a long time and it soon became apparent the men had been very unhappy lying to me. They'd felt the breeding time had been too stressful though. They thought I would do better if it just happened.

It had taken some luck and some timing to do it right. They'd intentionally told the men to deliver the wrong drink, but were still surprised when it happened. They did not understand human breeding and Christof had spent a long time with the Healers. In the end, they were surprised their plan had worked.

Hannah very grudgingly forgave him, but demanded he not do it again. Damien almost seemed relieved to promise her he would not hide things from me. He really had hated doing it. My men had felt they were committing a grave crime the entire time.

"Your Mama is family to us," Damien said seriously. "We are learning to treat her as such. My Brothers and I will not make this mistake again."

Rose and Fuji arrived with their owners after several day cycles. I was thrilled to see my friends. The men were also glad to be back around their favorite cousins. It was good for all of us.

My pregnancy continued and it was very unlike the previous two. Every meal I was given included some sort of Earth food, which I obviously enjoyed. I was permitted to continue to learn to battle with the wooden staffs, because it was good exercise. My swimming was encouraged, but monitored this time.

Nu-reeh had developed a fear I would drown in the water. One of the Healers had mentioned to her that I could develop cramps and may breath the water, which could kill me. After that my family was excused from part of their afternoon chores to watch me swim. We found it odd, but did not express that to Nu-reeh. Her utter paranoia about this pregnancy was obvious.

The dreams continued and I began to slowly realize what they were. By the time I was fully showing I heard four distinct beats in my dreams. The sound was immensely soothing and I knew what it was. My boy's family had already bonded to him. The strange invisible link between men formed before they were even born. I was hearing the heart beats of my young son's family.

Nu-reeh's desire to protect me like I was fragile china now made perfect sense. If something happened to me all five little boys would suffer. My health was paramount until this birth. Since I could not protect myself, she was doing it for me.

Damien and his Brothers found my growing belly fascinating. They understood what was in it now and they knew this family would not hate them. My family loved to caress the growing baby bump.

My exhaustion with this pregnancy continued. Usually when my men played their card games at night I lay down and napped in the bed. They would join me at their regular time, but often it was not sleep on their minds. My men missed the closeness of the bond during our prior pregnancies.

"You are lovely," Evan whispered dragging his tongue over my bulging belly late one night.

"So sweet," Kein agreed.

I'd woken slightly cranky to find my clothing removed and the men surrounding me. Kein was nursing at a breast and Evan face pressed to my stomach. They required the closeness and hated that I wasn't bonded to them this time. Playing together in our dreams had been fun. Now when they went to bed, they wanted connection before sleep.

Trying to fight them when they were like this was useless and just resulted in hurt feelings. No one would be satisfied until we'd done something together. Since my belly was still fairly small being sexual was still very possible. That was what they usually wanted to do when they loved on me at this time of night.

My sleepy eyes looked up into Christof's caring ones. He always took the time to make sure I was agreeable to their night time foray's. Sighing I pulled his lips to mine and kissed him softly.

"I need a drink first," I requested and he was gone.

No one could say my lovers weren't interested in pleasing me.

After my water I looked up to find all five of them staring at me. Getting to my knees I looked at them and tried to guess what they wanted. It became obvious pretty quickly.

My family wanted to play together. My preparation was done as I knelt over Christof. With his tongue in my mouth I couldn't fight as Kein wiggled his hand between us to fondle my breasts. Evan's mouth found my cunt and Bane's hands caressed my backside. Damien rubbed my back and shoulders, leaving no flesh unstimulated.

Someone aimed Christof and I moaned as he slid easily in. A hand wrapped in my hair and I stopped kissing my chosen man. Damien dragged my lips to his shaft as he looked hotly down at me. He stood at the edge of the bed, hard and ready.

"Suck it, please," he requested quietly.

Christof continued to slip in and out as I licked Damien tip to base. My lips opened and I let the thick head pass while laving it with my tongue. The whole organ was soon slipping along my lips and bumping my throat on each pass.

I froze when I felt teeth on my shoulder. The sharp points grazed the flesh and a tongue soothed the stinging places they had been. A warm body settled against my back and I felt a cock resting against my ass.

"I adore your flavor," Evan whispered hoarsely in my ear. His sharp secondary teeth nipped at my ear and then he licked.

"Control, Brother," Damien reminded him squeezing his shoulder.

Sharp teeth receded and Evan licked down my earlobe to nibble at my neck above my collar. He just wanted to be close and watch me devour his Brother. As I rode Christof I felt Evan dry humping my backside. His cock slid against my ass until I wanted it there.

I pulled off Damien and he grabbed the back of my head, intent on having my lips wrapped around his shaft again.

"Fuck my ass, Evan," I said quickly before going back to Damien's tool.

The permission had been what he was waiting for. My ass was something I didn't always offer them. They respected my right to choose to do this with them.

Christof rocked slowly beneath me and the oil was slicked between my cheeks and up my dark star.

"So tight," Evan moaned opening me with his fingers.

He was right, we wouldn't be able to do this much longer. The pregnancy was making it more difficult. Even normal sex was difficult, multiple sex partners was challenging.

Christof stilled completely and Damien only took slow movements into and out of my mouth as Evan filled me. He pushed until there was nothing left. I was stuffed and then they all moved as one.

The sensation of being crushed and controlled by them was amazing. I was somehow tense and relaxed all at once. When my body spasmed around the cocks inside of me, no one was surprised.

Damien came first, unable to hold out watching his Brothers together.

Without my mouth occupied I could focus on my stretched lower region. One pulled out as his Brother pushed home. It was a very slow sensual dance.

Kein knelt beside us and seemed enthralled. I watched his hand drift to his long cock and he started to stroke.

"Do you want my mouth?" I panted and he shook his head.

Kein liked the side view. He enjoyed watching my breasts crushed against Christof. Evan made it better by leaning on just one hand and using the other to torment a nipple.

"You could spray me with it," I offered and I saw Kein's balls start to tighten.

The first squirt hit my shoulder, the second hit my back as Evan backed away to give him room, the third landed on the side of my breast. In a move that surprised me Evan caught the rest in his hand. As I licked Kein's seed from his palm Evan exploded in my ass.

Christof was so close beneath me, but Bane wanted him to wait. I panted over Christof as he held my hips tightly. I felt him strain at not finishing.

"I want to come on her ass while I see you inside of her," Bane said moving into the position Evan had been in.

Kein's seed was drying on my back and shoulder. I got the feeling looking at it laying on my skin was turning Bane on. Masturbating had been such a taboo thing for them, seeing the evidence of it made them wild.

Christof grinned up at me as his long fingers pulled my ass open. Bane groaned loudly and I heard his hand moving quickly over his shaft. Bracing myself on the bed I started to slide up and down Christof's staff. His grin faded as his secondary teeth dropped and his eyes glazed.

Bane's spending sprayed across my ass as Christof pressed in and came inside of me.

Looking around the room I saw everyone was hard again. If they wanted another go at me, I felt for sure I would not enjoy it. Being woken in the middle of the night for sex was difficult for a pregnant woman, but I should never have doubted them.

"Come," Evan said offering me his hand.

I slipped tiredly off of Christof and stepped off the bed. Kein was already adjusting the water in the shower. They ignored their own raging erections and cleaned me quickly.

"Soon even this will be too much," Evan said patting me dry. "Thank you for letting us still ...," Evan looked at his Brothers before continuing, "share pleasure with you. We know this isn't easy for you."

In all this time, only Christof had ever thanked me. I took Evan off guard when I grabbed him and kissed him. He held me up as I looked into his surprised blue eyes.

"You are welcome, my love," I whispered in his ear.

I had to laugh as they all said thank you and insisted that I kiss them too. Never, never, never had I expected to hear that in this place. It was wonderful.

My belly grew slowly with my son. I feared something was wrong, but I didn't want to worry anyone in my family. Finally, I decided I had to ask someone.

Nu-reeh or one of her Sisters checked on me at least once a day. Tosu came most frequently. She would sit with me for a moment and make sure all was well. She wanted to know if I was nauseated or vomiting. Most pointedly she always asked about my sleep and my mental state.
