The Hunter's Serenade Ch. 03

The Hunter's Serenade Ch. 03

It had been a few hours since Kira and Sev had consummated their bond. Kira was living her best life; she had achieved everything she had longed for. Her new human body and her now-intimate relationship with Sev were completely satisfying to her. Everything felt surreal: Kira had never thought she'd get this far, yet here she was.

Meanwhile, Serina was pleased to see Kira being happily fulfilled. Yet she was also disconcerted. Having given Kira and Sev space to do their business, Serina had come back to find them butt naked, sweaty, and knocked out under the blanket after concluding what appeared to be an intense love-making session. Serina felt flustered and jealous. She had been aching to have Sev's cock inside of her for weeks, and the smell of sex in the air only drove her cravings from unbearable to insatiable.

She climbed into bed and tried to sleep, but instead tossed and turned throughout the night. The atmosphere of the small bunk was ripe with sex; seeing Kira and Sev all cuddled up together naked embarrassed her at the same time as it rendered her hopelessly horny. She wanted to pry Kira off of her lover so she could resume her own place beside him. But wanting to allow Kira her moment, she just sighed and turned her back on them.

As she attempted to get some shut-eye, her mind pondered upon what she had just participated in. Serina couldn't believe that she was openly sharing her man with another woman. She was uncertain how the dynamics of having another girl who required her man's love and attention were going to work out. But at least with Kira, there was some level of familiarity and comfort.

In the morning, Serina woke up to find Kira cautiously poking her cheek. "Augh, what is it??" Serina groaned in annoyance.

"We need to talk," Kira stated with urgency; she was now wearing her usual shorts and tank top.

"Ugh, now? Give me five more minutes," Serina whined, she hated being woken up preemptively.

"No, we need to talk, like right now!" the gray-haired girl exclaimed. Sighing, Serina sat up and rubbed her groggy eyes. Looking past Kira, she saw that Sev was not at the end of the bed where he usually was.

"Where's Sev?" Serina muttered in a raspy voice.

"Oh, he went out," Kira quickly answered. Serina slowly nodded.

"So, what is it you want so badly?"

Kira nervously fiddled her thumbs. "Yo- you know I had sex with Sev, right?" she inquired. Serina's amber eyes widened at being reminded of what had transpired the previous night. Jealousy and embarrassment came surging up within her.

"Right, of course..." Serina mumbled, blushing a bit. "Ho- how was it?" she shyly asked. Kira's cheeks turned rosy and her eyelids fluttered rapidly

"It was good... like really good. Sev is quite the man, Serina," Kira replied. "Everything you said was true!" Serina couldn't help but chuckle and nod victoriously. "Thank you for sharing him with me," Kira added, offering her a tender smile. Images of Sev making love to Kira suddenly flashed in Serina's mind, causing her stomach to flutter.

"I- uh, of course. It would be selfish of me to keep him all to myself I guess... So what is it you wanted to talk about? It better be worth it."

"Well, it is important... Eh, very important," Kira slowly began. "So, you know how Sev and I... did it?" Serina rolled her eyes and nodded. She was beginning to feel like Kira was trying to rub it in or something. "Well, he came inside me." Serina paused briefly before responding, but couldn't really see Kira's concern.

"Well, of course he would. He cums in me too. It is his right as our husband, of course," Serina replied casually. But observing that Kira was still blushing heavily, she arched her brow. "And why is this so important? It's not like you can get pregnant or anything." Since Kira's body was artificially made, Serina presumed that she must also be sterile.

Kira averted her eyes down to the bed and blushed even harder. Serina froze. "Kira? What's the matter?? Hello?" the pixie-haired bounty hunter interrogated her gray-tressed companion rather frantically. Kira refused to speak a word. Then, realizing why she seemed so embarrassed, Serina's heart dropped.

"Don't tell me you can get pregnant," Serina uttered bemusedly. Kira slowly nodded. "Kira! What?! How is that possible?? No, no, that can't be!"

"Dr. Foresight said I can get pregnant! My body may have been grown in a laboratory, but that doesn't mean I am not just as natural a woman as you," Kira replied. Serina was in total disbelief. There was no way that Kira could get knocked up. At least not before Serina, Sev's senior wife!

"Ugh, Kira, you knew this all along and had sex with Sev without any protection? How irresponsible of you!" Serina berated her new sister-wife.

"What?? I'm sorry! I- I was lost in the moment... I just wanted to be with Sev!" Kira stammered. "And anyway, is it not our duty to bear him strong children??" Serina took a moment to contemplate her reasoning.

"No! Er, I mean, yes! Augh, but not right now, dammit! You have barely obtained your body, Kira, you can't immediately get pregnant! It's a huge responsibility! And Sev isn't even ready to have kids yet!" Serina snapped back. Kira squinted her bright eyes at her. Serina was right, but she wanted to fulfill her spousal duties and help her lover carry out his own duties to his lineage. "And I doubt you know nothing about being a mother," Serina added. Kira arched her brow and leered at her.

"Actually, I'm very aware of the nature of maternal responsibility. During my time as an AI construct, I researched the topic in considerable depth," Kira spoke with a slight sense of superiority. "You probably know less about maternal responsibilities than I do." Serina's mouth fell agape and she glared at the gray-haired girl. As mad as she was for such a low blow, Kira was right. Serina didn't have a lick of experience at being a mom.

Sighing, Serina crawled past Kira and got out of the bunk. "Ugh... enough about this. Come here, Kira," she ordered in a stern tone. Kira tilted her head curiously, but she remained seated. "Kira! Come here, now!" Flinching, Kira followed her order with alacrity: Serina was intimidating when she got mad.

Taking her to a nearby cabinet, Serina opened it and retrieved a container of mysterious blue pills. Popping one into her hand, she got a glass of water and handed it to Kira. "Here, take this," Serina commanded.

"Why? What is it??" she queried.

"Contraceptives. Now take it," Serina sternly answered. Kira hesitated for a moment, but meeting her sister-wife's glaring eyes, she begrudgingly accepted the pill. Popping it into her mouth, she gulped it down with the water. Serina let out a sigh of relief. "Thank you, Kira. Sorry if I'm sounding a bit bossy, but Sev can't afford to have children right now. I know it's our duty to his Valkorian heritage but, in his line of work, we can't have him worried about having babies around."

Kira frowned sadly. She just wanted to be a good wife for Sev. Noticing Kira's change in demeanor, Serina placed a comforting hand on her shoulder. "I'm sure he wants children somewhere down the line, so don't worry, Kira. He'll let us know when he's ready." Kira lifted a small smile at this reassurance.

Grabbing another capsule, she handed it to Kira. "Here, take a pill once a week, starting today. This is the birth control I use. I can safely say that it has been working so far," she instructed. Obediently nodding, Kira consumed the pill without any further objection.

"Thanks for looking out for me, Serina. I know that having to deal with an additional crewmate is a lot all of a sudden."

Rolling her eyes, Serina pulled Kira into a hug. Surprised, Kira slowly returned the hug as well. "As the first wife, it's my duty to keep you in line," Serina muttered teasingly, but also with a strong undercurrent of truth. "Plus, you're my friend. It's in my best interest to make sure you're taken care of."

Kira's turquoise eyes began to water and she hugged Serina even harder. Then, the sound of the ship's platform caught their attention. Quickly pulling apart from each other, the two pretty women looked toward the ship's main entry ramp and saw their shared lover making his way into the ship, clad in his distinguishable Hyperium armor.

Walking over to his two wives, Sev removed his helmet. Going to Serina first, he leaned down and gave her an affectionate kiss on the lips. "I missed you last night," he said quietly. Serina blushed.

"Well, you were too knocked out from fucking your new wife last night to notice me coming to bed," she teasingly said. "And you were already gone when I woke up! Hm, do you not love me anymore??" Sev chucked a bit. Reaching an arm behind Serina, he grabbed a handful of her supple ass. Giving her another kiss, he gave her plush cheek a good squeeze. Serina gasped and felt her stomach flutter at his salacious act. It wasn't often he did things like this, so she deduced he must be in a good mood.

"Oh, my? Sev, hmmm, okay, maybe you do still love me," Serina giggled as their lips parted from one another.

Kira's heart pounded in her chest as Sev turned toward her. Closing to an intimate distance, he leaned down and offered her a kiss as well. She happily returned the favor and locked her lips with his. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Serina squinting at them; it was more than obvious that she was a little jealous.

Pulling away from Kira, Sev affectionately rubbed her cheek with his gloved hand, causing her to purr and hum happily. "It's time you get my emblem etched on you," he stated, putting his helmet back on.

Kira's eyes lit up with excitement. "Really?? Don't we have to go back to the Conclave for that?" Sev shook his head. He proceeded to explain that it was no longer necessary -- as the head of his lineage, he could now do it on his own authority.

Setting her down on a nearby chair, Sev retrieved a pen-like device. Carefully pushing her right ear to the side, he spoke, "You ready? This might hurt a bit, but it won't take long." Kira gave a confident nod.

"I've been ready for this. Hurry up and do it! I can't wait to make things official!" Chuckling, Sev nodded and activated the pen. It emitted a low hum, making Kira a little anxious despite her brave words.

The prick of a sharp needle against her skin caused Kira to flinch. "Keep still," Sev instructed.

After only a few moments, Sev pulled the pen away and observed his work. The mark of the Aetherian Leviathor was permanently tattooed on her skin, officially making her his second wife. "Is it done?? Let me see! Let me see!" Kira exclaimed.

Serina quickly handed Kira a small mirror. With just a turn of her head, the freshly minted second wife was able to observe her newly acquired tattoo, etched fetchingly just behind her right ear. As of that moment, Kira was now an integral part of Sev's family, Clan Balteus. The significance was profound, especially for someone who had never before possessed so much as a surname; now, her last name was officially Balteus.

"It looks good on you, Kira. Happy to have you join our little family," Serina said, promptly welcoming Kira into their household. Kira glanced at her sister-wife, nodding happily. However, her attention shifted to Serina's left arm, where she noticed the intricate tattoo sleeve on her forearm.

"Um, boss, don't I get to have a tattoo like the one on Serina's arm?" Kira inquired, pointing at her sister-wife. Sev shook his head.

"No, Serina earned that by becoming a Valkorian warrior," he explained. "You don't need one like that since you aren't trained for combat. But you're just as much a Valkorian, due to your bond with me." Kira had to suppress a jolt of jealousy but, sighing, she accepted his explanation.

Standing back up, Kira went to Sev and wrapped her arms around his armored body. "I love you, boss," she said happily. Chuckling under his helmet, Sev ran his hand through her soft gray hair.

"I love you, too."

Meanwhile, Serina was squinting at the both of them. She wanted to get her fair share of some loving as well. So striding over to them, she nudged Kira to the side to make room. "Hey, tiger, don't forget about me," she uttered.

"Hm, of course, I also love you, Serina," Sev added, noticing her inherent jealousy. Serina nodded to herself as both of the wives hugged their man together. As Serina rubbed her cheek into Sev's armored chest, she couldn't help but smirk mischievously at Kira. Kira squinted back at her and rubbed her cheek into him as well trying to outdo her.

A hint of rivalry was suddenly forming between the two wives. "Hey, tiger, wanna fuck?" Serina said out of nowhere. Kira blushed heavily at the other woman's provocative language. It was so out of character for the first wife, that Kira didn't know what to say.

Serina tilted her head to Sev, expecting him to agree with her. But to her dismay, he replied, "Not right now. I have a meeting to attend over at Novastris. And I'm going to teach Kira how to fly this ship." Serina's mouth fell agape in disbelief.

Serina glanced over at Kira and saw her giggle and stick her tongue out at her. The first wife shot Kira a mean glare, and the newer wife quickly deferred to her. "You can't be serious! I- no! It's been weeks! I'm not taking no for an answer! I need this, now!"

Sev sighed, torn between his duties and Serina's needs. "I- okay... But it'll have to wait until later. I promise," he replied, not wanting to get on Serina's bad side. He still wasn't sure what to do with Kira in the meantime, but he figured that they would work out some kind of arrangement as they went along.

"Fine. You better not break your promise," Serina flatly stated. She let go of Sev and leered at him before climbing back into bed. Sev felt guilty for having to divert attention away from his first lover. He was new to this whole multiple wives thing. He definitely had to learn how to balance his attention between Serina and Kira.

"Come on now, Kira. Let me teach you how to fly the ship," he sighed.

"But I already know how," Kira replied curiously.

"Remember, you're not an AI construct anymore," he reminded her. "I'm going to need you to be my pilot when I'm boots on the ground."

"Okay, boss, but it shouldn't be too hard. I know enough about this hunk of metal," Kira said in a joking manner.

"This isn't a hunk of metal," Sev said, taking small offense. His ship was a far cry from her derisive terminology. Taking her hand, he led her to the cockpit of the ship. Kira was confident that she would quickly get the hang of controlling the ship by hand.

However, Kira's eyes widened once she took in the sheer number of buttons and screens. And there weren't any proper junctions to connect the uplink nodes on her hands. When she had been a purely digital entity, with a direct interface from her mind to the ship's control systems, everything had been much more straightforward. She gulped nervously. "Problem?" Sev asked as he slid into the pilot's seat.

Kira let out a defeated sigh. "This won't be as easy as I thought..." she shamefully admitted. Sev chuckled and patted his lap.

"Come, sit, I'll just teach you by hand, it's not that hard." Kira's eyes lit up as she quickly sat down on his lap. She giggled and hummed happily, basking in his presence.

Gleefully kicking her feet up and down, she watched as Sev went over the controls. Meanwhile, Sev was having a hard time focusing on the way that Kira kept moving around. "Hey, keep still, would you?" he chided her, grabbing her hips to constrain her movements.

"Eep!" Kira squealed. "Eh, sorry, boss..." Sev smiled under his helmet and playfully pinched her cheek.

Thankfully, Kira was an incredibly quick learner. Soon, she had a full grasp of the ship's controls. Sev even let her fly the ship and initiate a jump to his scheduled meeting location, all while she was sitting on his lap.

"Good job, Kira," Sev said proudly. Kira happily nodded, delighted to make her lover proud. Spinning around, Kira straddled herself on Sev and grabbed the sides of his helmet.

"Can I get a kiss as a reward?"

"Hm, of course," he agreed. Smiling, she lifted his helmet halfway up, revealing just his mouth and nose. Leaning forward, she planted her soft lips on his. After sharing a tender kiss, Kira pulled away.

"I suppose it's time you tend to Serina now, boss," she said, pulling his helmet back down.

"Mhm, I do need to do that. Are you okay with taking control of things here in the meantime?" Kira gave an affirming nod. "I'm not sure how long this will take. Serina seemed rather insatiable."

"Of course, boss. I'll make sure to give you two privacy."

"Hm, thank you, my lovely," Sev responded, giving her a loving pat on the head.

Hopping briskly up and off Sev's lap, Kira allowed him to get up and leave. Crossing her ankles as she sat back down, she turned her head around enough to carefully observe him while he stripped off his armor. Once he was naked, she bit her lip at the sight of his muscular nude form. He was like some sort of demi-god in the flesh.

"Watcha looking at?" Sev inquired, as he caught his gray-haired lover staring.

"Eep! Em, you..." Kira abashedly replied.

Smirking, he made his way over to their shared bunk. Kira observed him slide the curtain aside and lean over the bed. She heard some inaudible talking for a bit and then, out of nowhere, she saw Serina's arms stretch into view and yank Sev into the bunk space.

For the next half hour, Kira monitored the ship's controls from the pilot's seat, with no choice but to listen to Sev and Serina making love.

"AH AH UH UH, YES!" Serina moaned loudly. She sounded like she was in heat.

Kira squinted and tried to block out the noise, but it was simply impossible. She felt both jealousy and arousal as she listened to the two fucking. She couldn't help but squeeze her loins, reminiscing about her time with Sev. She was still a little sore, but she also felt her pussy aching for her strong Valkorian lover.

Thirty more minutes went by, and Kira had grown hopelessly horny. She sat curled up in the pilot seat, her panties soaking wet. Feeling her throat dry, she got up and went to the fridge to grab a drink. Serina's moans got progressively louder as Kira walked past the bunk.

Although the bunk was covered by a curtain, she couldn't help but listen in on their rutting. Sipping on her bottle of water, she leaned on the kitchen counter and stared at the bunk. Wanting to have her next turn with Sev, Kira wondered how much longer they would take.

Unable to suppress her former voyeuristic tendencies, she grew increasingly curious about the pair's love-making session. Quietly setting her bottle down, she inched closer to the bunk. Getting down on her knees, she carefully crawled closer until she could align her eyes with a small gap in the curtain. She bit her lip nervously, knowing that she shouldn't be doing this, but accepting that she couldn't help herself.

Peeking through, her turquoise eyes widened to see Serina on top of Sev, riding him like a wild cowgirl. "Ah ah ah, you like that, tiger? Hmm, I know you do. God I've missed bouncing on your cock like this," Serina cooed in a low breathy voice.

The two were drenched in sweat and the scent of sex seeped through the small gap. Kira gasped at the intensity with which Serina rode their mutual lover. It contrasted starkly with Kira's earlier sex session with Sev. She had mostly been on the bottom. But seeing the satisfied expression on Sev's face, Kira resolved to incorporate the position into their lovemaking: she wanted to make him feel just as good as Serina was.

As she raised her eyes from the conjunction between the other two, Kira froze as she discovered Serina glaring right at her. "Ugh, dammit, Kira!" she exclaimed in annoyance. Reacting to his first wife's words, Sev turned his head and saw Kira's pretty face revealed through the small gap in the curtain.
