Chapter Nine: Stolen
The next two days were delightfully uneventful. After my forced orgasms during the conference, a break from sexual duties was welcome. Master spent the time putting the finishing touches on the treaties and arranging for our trip to Ixtlicit. I had to take care of some of the more routine tasks that slaves are given. Just before dinner on the second day, Master entered our room and called me over to his chair.
"Slave, we will be going to Ixtlicit tomorrow morning. It took some explaining as to why you wished to go. I think you should be prepared for atypical reactions to your expression of sympathy."
"I understand Master."
"There is a second reason for our visit. The Wren'kt wish to learn more about the Federation. As you know, they are a species that still depends on a queen for reproduction. The species on the planet has 27 distinct hives with queens at the head. They have very little understanding of races with universally sexual females. Their experience with the Halsted has not enlightened them much, as Halsted females are not prone to get pregnant just so their neighbors can observe sex."
"I see. Our new protectorates wish to observe human sex."
"It's more than that, they do want to observe human sex, but they wish to observe extra species sex. In the spirit of interspecies cooperation, I have agreed to allow your participation in their experiments."
"I understand, Master. May I ask the nature of the experiments?"
"There are three they wish to conduct. They wish to observe sex between two humans. That will be you and I. I hope that will not be too unpleasant."
"I think I can suffer through it Master." I said with grin.
"The second experiment involves Hydromel. They wish to observe its effects on a human woman, both in terms of the visible effects on you and the medical effects on your body. To facilitate the medical scans, you'll be strapped down and stimulated in a variety of ways. One of the goals of the research is to determine how long sexual arousal can be maintained. Hence, you'll be denied orgasm until the medical scanners determine that you cannot physically handle the denial anymore."
"Master, please! You don't know what it's like to be under Hydromel. It's maddening. All that pleasure with no release, building and building. I can't handle it, it'll drive me crazy."
"Slave, I've seen you in extreme sexual situations before. Your capacity for pleasure is much greater than you expect. Besides, I'm not asking you, this is an order, Master to slave. If you don't want to be punished, you'll do as you are told."
I sighed. It was just three days ago I had told Master that I was a slave and that I knew that he would order me to do things that I would not like to do. "Yes Master. Will you be present?"
"No. They wish to have their tests unbiased by the presence of the familiar. The third test will be the hardest for you. They wish to observe sex between a human female and a Wren'kt drone."
"NO!" I fell at his feet, kissing in supplication, begging him, "Master, I'm terrified of insects. Don't make me do this, please."
"Slave! Sit up straight, arms behind your back!"
I jerked at his commands. I knelt up straight, with my knees spread apart and my hands clasped behind my back. "Yes Master."
"You will have sex with a Wren'kt drone, you will not ask or plead to avoid it and you will hide your disgust while it is happening. Have I made myself clear?"
Sobbing, fear overwhelming my senses, I choked out, "Yes Master. Master, may I be under the effects of Doplamil during that test?"
"No, Slave. They need to see how humans react to the experience. They feel that they are at a disadvantage in the galactic stage because of their dependence on queens and drones for reproduction. If they can find a way to make the infertile females fertile, or keep drones from dying as a result of mating, they can increase their reproductive rates. Hydromel is the first drug they want to investigate as to whether it can activate the dormant ovaries in females. If drones can mate with another species, their semen can be recovered and they can deposit multiple times, increasing the number of fertilized eggs tremendously. I think Hydromel will be a wash. It is designed to increase sexual pleasure, not affect reproduction. If the drone experiment is successful, there will be plenty of women who are 'worldly' enough to submit to such a procedure for the right incentive."
"Let them be test subjects." I muttered under my breath, though apparently not under enough.
"That will be enough. Slave, when I say not to complain, I mean it. You'll spend the rest of the night in pain."
He picked up the collar control and pushed some controls. My head burst into pain, a migraine coming on in an instant. I went to grab my temples and I couldn't. My hands had been immobilized behind me. I couldn't stand either. I was pinned in my kneeling position, my head on fire and my eyes opened. I could blink about once every five seconds, but could not shut them against the light that made the pain infinitely worse.
"Master, I'm sorry. It's just so hard, you're asking me to face a phobia in the most dramatic way possible. I promise, I'll control myself tomorrow. Please have mercy on me."
"I know what I'm asking of you. I would not ask if I didn't know that you could do it. You are more capable than you give yourself credit for, especially when it comes to sex. I've set the migraine to turn off in one hour, increased by five minutes for every minute of sound you make. I would suggest you keep absolutely quiet for the next hour."
Do you have any idea how hard it is to not vocalize your pain when you have a migraine? My early attempts were not successful. Moans kept escaping as I struggled with the pain and the blinding light in my hyper-sensitive eyes. I only managed to pull it off when I opened my mouth and panted. Fully open, I made no noise to speak of and I was able suffer in silence. My migraine lasted total of one hour and 15 minutes. When the pain finally subsided, I had been concentrating so hard that I cried out in pain at the lack of pain, if that makes any sense.
