The efficiency of Matron birth topped out at ten minutes. Any faster would have risked the Matron's rapid growth, or introduce complications for both the mother and their offspring. The world was unaware of the collapse of the Littleton Yupod center, and didn't begin to suspect anything until after New England had fallen within a day.
The Yupod centers were all connected to each other, beneath the Earth's crust. It gave each center access to information, transportation, and resources from other parts of the network.
Any adult not in a Yupod center was quickly brought into the mix, as Yupods began to grow outside of centers. Most notably in uninhabited areas, forests of Yupods rapidly multiplied and converted women into suitable mothers. Men were incapacitated, though kept alive in case there was ever a need for them.
Minors, anyone under the age of 21, were segregated from the rest of the population until it was their time. Younger females were given a limited amount of freedom before their time arrived. Adults were still present in their lives, and they cared for their children as always, but the Matrons that paired with every female adult were reminders of what was to come.
Males were no longer necessary in this new society; women could be impregnated by Matrons to birth new female humans. This pregnancy process was unaffected by humanity's bonding with Matrons, and was still nine months. All of the old signs of pregnancy, strange cravings included, were still there. Giving birth to a human child was considered a coming of age for all women.
No modern or futuristic military could stop this foe. Not with guns whose bullets were reflected off the shiny surfaces of pods, and not with laser cannons that never seemed to hit their target, and not with aerial bombs that exploded prematurely, high in the atmosphere. They were just too fast and too good, and too...strange.
The Pafanel species as a whole could not be reached for comment. Either they were ignoring humanity, abetting this takeover, or were preoccupied with something else. No one could say with any certainty, and there were hundreds of theories as to how this had started. All anyone knew for certain is that Yupods had started to pop up and march across the country like weeds, taking over an incredible amount of people in the blink of an eye.
Within two weeks, the entire North American continent had fallen to the Yupods. There were pockets of resistance where it was too cold for them to live, in northernmost Canada and Alaska. Other bunkers and walled-in cities were dense with refugees and the remains of one of the world's largest military powers.
There was no need to use weapons to wage war. The Matrons could win it just fine without these gadgets. And that's exactly what they did, sweeping over South America in another few weeks. Pockets of resistance struggled on islands surrounding the continents, but without a significant military presence, there was no hope for them to mount a meaningful counterattack. There were simply too many of them at this point.
The Eastern Hemisphere fell in short order. The vastness of northern Russia made it a useful place to store unwanted males, allowing those that remained to live inside their own Yupods. All of them were blissfully unaware of their situation, made to experience their perfect sexual life. No new males were ever born, so it was only a matter of time until the male population faded out.
China was an interesting place, with such a high population density and disproportionate amount of Yupods to begin with. Invading the country was tricky, but not impossible. Once things were under control, and when the entire Asian continent was brought under one wing, it was much easier to provide the appropriate healthcare and education to all female inhabitants. The absence of half a population made accomplishing this goal much easier.
With the planet Earth under the control of the Yupods and Matrons, they began to expand outward, reaching new heights in the solar system that a dysfunctional human race could only have dreamed about. Only under one mind could these dreams be realized, and that was exactly what happened. The Moon and Mars were taken in short order, reclaiming them from rebellious humans. Yupods had yet to evolve to survive the extreme conditions, but the Matrons could function similarly to humans (and the equipment they used to survive).
Soon, everyone would know the love and peace of a Yupod. Of having a Matron take care of them. And they would feel the unconditional love and support from those around, and sometimes inside, them.

Epilogue
It was dark outside. Having lived in a city my entire life, I'd never gotten the chance to see the stars for real. Now I was in a quiet countryside, with no light pollution for miles and miles around me.
I rested in Kayla's lap, taking in the stars above me. One hand was kneading my pussy, the other playing with one of my tits.
My belly bulged, this time with the promise of a human baby. I'd be a mother again, this time to a beautiful girl. With one hand I rubbed my belly, and with the other I gripped Kayla's hand tightly. She squeezed back.
Turning to my right, I glanced at the prone form that lay in the grass. It was Jessica, being smothered by several of her Matrons. She was a completely different person than the crying girl I had consoled. One Matron held onto Jessica as she sat in her lap as I was, with both of her blue hands kneading Jessica's cunt. Two other Matrons on either side of the girl squeezed her body, taking a tit in one hand and massaging her pregnant belly with the other.
It was hard to see all of this under the dark light, but the movement of their bodies and hands, and low moans coming from a face that gazed deeply into the stars above, told me everything.
Jessica and I had mated with our Matrons at the same time, and would be giving birth together soon.
I turned my head to look at the endless stars above me. They twinkled in the night sky, so dense and vibrant.
Soon, it would all be ours.
I was still the Princess of Symbiosis, after all.
I didn't see any gender specific cheap shots that other anonymous commented on. It appeared to be a general reference to "man-kind"
The creature left out the male gender in it's plans because it had no need for them in the reproduction,
although it could have been argued that they could have been used as energy sources, but so can the females. It did still care for the existing males, it just didn't have a real use for them.
to the author, perhaps consider replacing the general references to man with a more specific reference to "man-kind" or something similar, that way people don't overlook the fact that the creature mind wiped and enslaved everyone, proving it really didn't care about which gender made mistakes in the first place. or equality for that matter.
Victorian era people tend to be blind to factual truths, a comment which will confuse the hell out of the blinded. If you don't understand it, you have much to learn. Start with history (school doesn't count, only self study)
Men are useless, men are bad.
Men make everybody sad.
I'd give 5 if it weren't for the cheap shots.
I loved this story. The ending was predictable, but i enjoyed the build-up and the change of point of view during the story.
As a side note, the geek in me had to stop reading in the middle of the second page to decode the dates given in the code. I could not resist. So before continuing with the story, I opened a terminal and typed 'date -d @...' but then I was wondering why someone would go on vacation on a Sunday at 6am. That is, until I realized that the story was not taking place in Europe but probably somewhere in Colorado. Trying again with 'TZ="America/Denver" date -d @4500592482' gave better results. Thank you for thinking about these little details.
