Bred by the Hive Chapter 40
By Gary LM Martin
Major Samantha Arden of the United Survey Service is a senior official in HomePlanet Security and is a very skilled ESPer, which makes her a prime target for the Hive. She has a strained marriage with her husband Gavin and is secretly in love with her superior officer, Colonel Jack Sullivan. All that is about to change as Sam gets taken by the Hive. HomePlanet Security receives actionable intelligence that Sam's husband Gavin is a target of the Hive.
"Gavin!" Sam cried. She had been getting worried. She had called him twice before and hadn't been able to reach him. "Where have you been?"
His holoimage smiled at her. "Up to my neck in work, Sam. I'm sorry I haven't gotten back to you sooner. What's happening?"
"Send me your exact address," said Sam.
Gavin pressed a button. "Done. What's this all about?"
"A security detail will be with you in a couple of hours. Stick close to them."
"Are you going to tell me what this is all about?"
"When you get home, I'll explain everything," said Sam.
"All right. I've got to go now. I have you, dear," said Gavin.
"I love you too," said Sam.
After he signed off, Gavin stood up. He was wearing a shirt, but underneath it he was completely nude. He turned to Melinda.
"Was that satisfactory?"
Melinda smiled and nodded.

Gavin came home two days later. He surprised her by making dinner for the both of them.
Sam was surprised for several reasons. First, she thought that Gavin was traveling for work for several more days. He had already been gone for nearly three weeks. He usually called her before he returned.
And secondly, relations with Gavin simply hadn't been that good lately. Their relationship had had a tough time recovering from the vampire incident. While Gavin didn't openly blame her for draining his manhood, she knew he was resentful. His resentment had only grown when Dunlop 4 had fully restored her, without fully restoring him. Even now they had sex with difficulty, with Sam unable to climax on his smaller penis, and Gavin only climaxing with intense concentration and effort.
She had suspected that Gavin purposefully had taken a long term assignment to be away from her for a while. Sam didn't know what to say or do to repair their damaged relationship. Maybe time would help.
But here was Gavin now, cooking her a wonderful three course dinner complete with candles, acting like the very solicitous and interested husband. As he kissed her, she realized that that perhaps Gavin had simply forgiven her. After all, he did love her.
As they sat down to eat, Gavin told Sam about his consulting job. This time he had been in Santa Monica, California. She listened to him drone on, but really was focusing on his face. For the first time in a long time he looked happy and relaxed. That was a good sign.
Gavin didn't ask why she had assigned guards to protect him. Sam knew there would be time to explain that later. She was grateful that Gavin wasn't getting into that topic now.
After dinner, Gavin took her in his arms and started to kiss her. That felt good too. Then kissing lead to touching which lead to one thing and then another and before long they were in bed together. She reached to touch him all over but when her hand roamed over his penis she felt him push her hand away. He was still sensitive about his penis size. So instead she concentrated on touching him everywhere else.
As they took off each other's clothes, Sam was mentally preparing for intercourse with her partner. She was ready to fake an orgasm for Gavin's benefit. Everything else was perfect, and she wanted him to be happy. When he climaxed inside of her, she would too, making him think that he drove her over the edge.
Gavin spread her legs, and aimed his small penis. Sam felt him enter her. Something felt a bit odd, at first. But then he began thrusting in and out, working up a rhythm, and all was fine. She could feel his penis, it just wasn't large enough to satisfy her. Gavin worked and worked at it, grunting more and more. She tried to encourage him, smiling and faking moans to make him think he was turning her on. And then Gavin gave a larger groan, and she sort of felt a weak spray of sperm release inside of her.
Gavin gave a broad smile as if he had just accomplished something spectacular. And as he pulled out of her, Sam got the first sense that something was very, very wrong.
She felt something, something unusual, slithering out of her vagina. She reached down to see what it was, but Gavin pushed her back on the bed.
"Hey!" said Sam.
The whatever it was had moved, and was now circling her clitoris.
Finally Gavin let her sit up.
"Gavin, what is this?" She said. She opened her folds, and looked inside.
There was a worm, firmly entrenched around her clitoral hood.
Sam looked at Gavin in horror. "You Infected me?"
"Yes," said Gavin, smiling.
"Gavin, how could you?" said Sam.
"It was my honor," said Gavin.
"Your honor?" said Sam.

Gavin had been gone for nearly two weeks. But he hadn't done any management consulting. He had showed for a project in Santa Monica, but as he stepped into the office of Quasitronics, Inc., he found no one there. He walked around the office, looking for someone, anyone, to explain what was going on.
In a corner office he found a woman, smiling.
"Welcome, Gavin. I've been waiting for you," she said. "My name is Melinda."
"I think there's been some mistake," said Gavin, looking around.
"No mistake," said Melinda, getting up from behind the desk. Each step was a seduction. "You are the husband of Major Samantha Arden, are you not?"
"Yes," said Gavin, uncertainly.
"Then there is no mistake at all," she smiled, as she slipped her arms around him.
********
"Your honor?" said Sam. "You're doing this voluntarily?"
"You want to see?" said Gavin. He turned his back to her. "Do you see any worms, Sam? Any riders?"
"No," said Sam. "Gavin... they must have programmed you to do this."
Gavin turned around to face her. "They didn't program me to do anything. When they told me what they wanted, I volunteered. Eagerly."
"Why?" said Sam.
"Because I didn't realize I married little Ms. Perfect. Do you know what they asked me, Sam? The very first thing? They wanted to know if I was the husband of Major Samantha Arden. That's all I've ever been, during our marriage."
"That's not true."
"That is true. You married me because I was convenient and safe and easy. We both traveled a lot, so we both married someone who could accept each other's lives. Little did I know that I was getting married to a galactic hero."
"I never intended to make you feel that way," said Sam.
"You couldn't help it. That was just the way you were. And then... when this thing with the vampires happened. You drained me, Sam, you took away my manhood, completely."
Sam felt the incredible weight of her guilt on her shoulders. "Gavin, I was under the influence of the vampires."
"So you told me. But I noticed, while under the influence, you didn't drain your good friend Colonel Jack Sullivan. Why is that, Sam? Why didn't you melt his penis away like you did mine?"
