Alpha in Chains - Cuffed by the Queen 1 Read online

  He decided that he could definitely use a shower and would take advantage of the little luxuries he had while he could. After all, if anyone discovered he had been secretly working on an escape plot since his time in the prison he most certainly would either be subject to even crueler torture or put to death. He needed some time to get stronger though before he could proceed with his plan. He walked into his small shower and turned the water on full blast. After adjusting the temperature he found a clean towel under the sink and stepped inside. The spray hit his back and he almost audibly moaned.

  Not since Yoshiri had given him a close shave the day before had he felt so human. He put his head underneath the water and ran his hands through his hair. He then lathered it up with the shampoo that had been provided for him, and leaned his head back once more. The water pooled in crevices along his muscled back and shoulder blades. The sensation of the warm water soothed his tired muscles and he suddenly felt a sense of calm when thinking about the odd chemistry and connection he had with the beautiful alien officer.

  Chapter 7.

  When he got out of the shower, Rick dried off and put on a clean white t shirt and a fresh pair of jeans. He was about to stretch out on the bed and take another nap when he heard the buzzer sound. Marius was obviously awake and ready to talk. They were fortunate in the fact that the guards in the palace were more like concierges than militants bent on depravity and brutality. Rick pressed the button on the buzzer which sounded in Marius’s cell. “Hey.”

  “It took you long enough. If you’re finished primping pretty boy we need to talk.”

  “I wasn’t primping. I’m here now.”

  “Listen to me. We won’t have much time to chit chat. Did you eat breakfast?”

  “Yeah. It was amazing. Well… for this God forsaken planet that is.”

  “Good. I’m glad you still remember and appreciate Earth. Now listen up do you have the balls to try to go back there?”

  “To Earth? Absolutely. I left a family behind to go on this mission. Well... an ex-wife which doesn’t count, and my daughter.”

  “That’s a shame, Rick. Let’s get you back there to them.”

  “How? Our ship was almost a total loss in the crash.”

  “I’ve received word from a certain reputable source that the ship has been repaired and is hidden on the other side of the large ravine at the edge of the city. The problem of course is crossing the ravine in time without being discovered. It’s rumored to be heavily guarded at all times. Still though… it’s our only chance.”

  “Why would they repair the ship?”

  “Apparently it’s not paradise here after all. Go figure. Anyway… I’ve been planning this for the last year and a half so don’t screw this up for me. We’ll launch the plan today to escape.”

  “Today?”

  “Yes. During the trials. You can be my distraction… you seem to be chummy with the Queen’s consort.”

  “What trials? You’ve lost me Marius.”

  “Fuck. You really aren’t just a pretty face aren’t you…? I know why your ex-wife is your ex-wife now. You’ll figure it out. Just be sure to give me some type of distraction at the trials… be dramatic or try to get away or something.”

  “What if I get knocked out?”

  “I never leave a man behind Hernandez. We’re leaving that dusty piece of shit planet today and you’re coming with me dead or alive.”

  “How did you find all this out?”

  “Ha! I may not be a conversationalist but my dick is. Now just be ready. I’ll wolf whistle when I’m ready for the distraction.”

  “Figures.”

  After several hours had passed, Yoshiri and Aristellia rose and both got dressed in their ceremonial military dress for the trials. For a brief moment, Yoshiri looked at Aristellia and saw her youthful exuberance shining in her eyes. “Are you feeling okay this morning? I know the preparations for the trials have left you exhausted my Queen.”

  “Yes... I am feeling well, I am much better knowing that you will be standing by side during them. How many of these have I seen in my life… it’s glorious though isn’t it? Our societies best all gathered together to witness the grand conquering. It serves to remind everyone just what champions our people really are.”

  “If you say so my Queen. I am dedicated to your beliefs and your service.”

  “Music to my ears, my Yoshiri. When the trials are over… I plan to reward you for your service by allowing you to have all of me as you choose.”

  “My favorite buffets my majesty.”

  Aristellia drew Yoshiri to her and kissed her with vigor and passion before running her hands through her long hair and caressing her cheek. “Let’s go my lady. It’s time; you gather the prisoners and I will prepare their consorts.”

  They walked arm in arm before parting at the end of the hallway with another kiss, then went their separate ways. Yoshiri walked down the long hallway where the prisoners were held and with the queen’s mouth still fresh on hers, her thoughts turned to the handsome prisoner awaiting her. She secretly hoped that he would object to the trials it had been her experience, however, that most of the men didn’t. When faced with death, they always chose to forsake their honor over death. She knew that if she could get to him early enough she could have a few moments alone with Hernandez before the gathering. She fully intended not to waste one single moment.

  Seeing Rick sprawled on his back with his eyes closed reclining on his pillow she quickly disarmed the keypad and walked to the bed. “Get up, Hernandez. No sleeping on the job.”

  “I wasn’t sleeping, just resting my eyes.” His smooth Texas drawl was music to her ears and she would have sat forever listening to him tell her stories or even sing her lullabies, but she knew that time was dire and in case things didn’t go as planned during the trials, she knew she had to make her move. “Listen to my voice. You’re going into the trials today. We don’t have much time. I just wanted to let you know, I can’t explain this force that compels me to be here with you… but know I do care about you human. Now be as quiet as possible. I need you Hernandez.”

  Chapter 8.

  Yoshiri immediately straddled the man with urgency and planted a heated kiss on his lips. She then pushed her tongue into his mouth and he felt a fire grow in his loins. He hadn’t had the chance before so he took the opportunity to put his arms around the woman embrace her pulling her into him. He ran his hands down her back and traced lines along her hips with his fingers before landing he hands on her backside firmly squeezing her ass cheeks and feeling his cock harden. She parted her lips and exhaled a moan as she skipped all aspects of teasing or the usual foreplay. She wanted him inside her and she didn’t have time to wait, neither did he.

  She ran her hands underneath his shirt and felt his well-built chest. On an impulse she pinched one of his nipples to gauge his reaction and he moaned. She then placed a hand over his mouth to silence him and whispered hotly, “Shh. You have to be quiet we both do. Our lives depend on it, do you understand, Hernandez?”

  He nodded his head and she trailed her fingers down his chest to his abdominal muscles, she relished the feel of them below her fingertips and silently wished that she had more time to linger in every detail of his body and wanted to lick every inch of his well-tanned skin. She knew time was of the essence, however, so she quickly grabbed his semi-hard cock and massaged it while unbuttoning his jeans and pulling them to his ankles.

  Even though he wanted to cry out in pleasure, Rick stilled his voice and just reached for her breasts while she arched her head back and bit her bottom lip. She writhed in pleasure as he proceeded to tease and pinch her hardened nipples and she felt her wetness which already existed growing into a pool underneath her uniform pants. She wasted no time in sliding them off. She couldn’t hold back any longer. She needed Hernandez inside her and it was now or never.

  She quickly pulled her pants down, revealing her creamy skin to him and she
smiled at him when she recognized that action made him pulse with desire. She silently caressed his cheek before kissing him softly on the lips and spreading her legs over him in order to ease him into her moist opening. They were both suffering in their silence and clung to each other tightly in fear of crying out. She twisted her hips and moved on top of him rhythmically. She never allowed herself to experience this pleasure before and her eyes rolled back in her head as she worked his thigh muscles to press himself into even harder, matching her motions with her own to get the fullest and deepest contact possible.

  They moved together even faster as she quickened her motions as she rode him even harder. Then in one final act, Rick grabbed them and pulled himself on top of her spreading her even further than she thought possible and proceeded to find her throbbing clitoris with his tongue circling it with long hard licks while he continued to pound into her until she lay still and spent below him.

  She patted his back and rubbed it gently, silently letting him know it was time for both of them to untangle themselves from one another. As they separated their bodies from one another and they both wiped sweat from their brows, Yoshiri wiped a tear from her eye before it could hit her cheek. She kissed him once more then whispered softly. “Thank you Hernandez. You don’t know how much that meant to me.”

  “You’re welcome, Yoshiri.”

  “Come on now, Hernandez. Get up and get dressed before I have to use my stick on you once again.”

  “Oh… I can’t wait for the day when you will again.”

  “Not in this lifetime.”

  After getting dressed they walked down the hallway into the courtyard where some of the prisoners and the maidens were already waiting. She deposited Hernandez in the holding area with the other prisoners and gave him a meaningful look. She then walked to Aristellia and took her hand, kissing it before bowing to her. The queen looked at her and smiled, then took her hand to rise. After all the attendees were situation, Aristellia kissed Yoshiri once more on the lips.

  After making a motion to silence the crowd Queen Aristellia pushed a button on the podium in their viewing box and her voice sounded through the courtyard. “Welcome distinguished guests to a new season for our glorious kingdom. It is time once more for a new cycle of life to begin to replenish our people and the trials are set to begin. As we welcome in the new year, I ask each and every one of you to remember our heritage.

  We are a strong breed of warrior women, born upon the sacrifices and bloody swords of our ancestors. I encourage each one of you to take a few moments before the ceremony to give thanks and praise to those who came before us, and I personally want to thank all of our participants for their contributions to our great race.”

  The crowd erupted into applause then the queen sat down and sounded an alarm that rang throughout the courtyard. A young woman was brought out with her hands shackled and she struggled against her captors as they led her to a slab in the middle of the courtyard where despite her struggles, she was tied down.

  The crowd still applauded even as the guards restrained the young woman whose face was tear stricken and her expression was frozen in terror. Without missing a beat, one of the royal guards then called out a number. Yoshiri’s heart fell and she involuntarily clutched at the queen’s hand.

  Chapter 9.

  Rick felt the guards push him into the courtyard as he looked around confused. “What’s going on?! Hey get your hands off of me! This is madness…what are you doing?!” As he struggled against the guards, he heard a low wolf whistle and knew that it was time for him to make a stand.

  Queen Aristellia stood up once more and made an announcement that chilled Rick to the core. Her voice became icy as she said, “Prisoner! It is now your duty as a citizen of our society to introduce this woman to your manhood and fill her with your seed so we will be prosperous for generations to come.”

  The crowd which gathered began another round of thunderous applause. “What?! What are you talking about?! No! She doesn’t want this… and neither do I! There’s an easier way to do this. The people of Earth propagated their species just fine without having to resort to rape! This is disgusting.”

  “You have your command. Now perform your duties, Earthling or your disloyalty will be dealt with accordingly.”

  Rick looked at the woman once more and grimaced. She couldn’t have been any more than twenty-three years old and clearly didn’t want to be a mother at this point in her life. She sobbed and still struggled to free herself. No. He shook his head. He was a better man than this, he wouldn’t dishonor neither her nor himself in this way, his father raised him to be a man of honor in all walks of life, and this was certainly no exception.

  “Fuck you! It’s not going to happen, get another degenerate to do your dirty work, bitch.”

  Chapter 10.

  The queen gave a signal and the guards attempted to grab Rick. As they did, still having use of his legs, he dodged them and ran to the woman on the slab. He worked quickly and managed to untie her restraints before getting knocked to the ground by a guard who blindsided him with a blow to the head. He watched the woman run off and hide in the shadows while he struggled to sit back up and make an escape, his blood pooling on the dusty ground below him. The courtyard erupted into a state of panic then as he heard what sounded like gunfire coming from a corner of the prison line. “Marius.”

  He stood up and scanned the area for the man, who didn’t withhold any of his gunfire, not aiming specifically; he rained bullets upon their captors, before cutting a line to Rick and helping him up and undoing his restraints. “You had a machine gun this whole fucking time and you didn’t bother to tell me about it until now?!”

  “Fuck no I wasn’t going to tell you so you could blab to your new girlfriend.”

  “My new… what are you talking about/!”

  “Go get her. It’s now or never Hernandez. Go get her and make a run for it. The ship’s waiting across the ravine.”

  “Well aren’t you coming?”

  “Yeah… after I take out as many of these cunts as I can. Remember I’ve been here much longer than you have kid. It’s my time. If I’m not there by sunset you leave, understand Hernandez?”

  Rick hesitated at that statement then nodded his head. “That’s an order by the way.” Rick then hugged Marius and said, “Thank you admiral. I appreciate your service.”

  “Now, listen up. You don’t have much time. I’ll cut you a path to the Queen but be sure you stay to the right. If you’re a dumbass I’ll shoot you. Now go!”

  Rick ran to the right and watched as guard after guard fell in a hail of bullets. Yoshiri, while attempting to locate the assailant saw Rick out of the corner of her eye moving towards her. While the queen was barking orders at her staff, she took the opportunity to gaze at the woman whose life she was bound to one final time before taking Rick’s outstretched hand. Under her she sighed and said, “Goodbye My Queen.” She then saw the passion in Rick’s eyes and made her choice. She took his outstretched hand as he yelled, “Come on, let’s move! We don’t have much time!”

  Chapter 11.

  Hand in hand, the pair dodged the guards as they ran from the courtyard and around the side of the palace. Yoshiri heard the queen shriek and cry out for her to come back as they fled, both not bothering to turn back. Sensing Yoshiri’s hesitation, Rick said, “You know that’s not the life you deserve. Please don’t leave me now, we’ve come this far.”

  “Hernandez, I can’t leave you. You’ll never survive on your own. I’m amazed you’ve made it in life this far.”

  He chuckled at her statement as they sprinted together through the woods outside the palace, placing as much distance between themselves and the courtyard as possible. Somehow Rick still was able to hear the sound of the machine gun shredding in the distance and he heard Marius’s distinct laughter. As they paused to rest before attempting to cross the ravine to get to the ship, they both felt the explosion before they heard it.<

  “Oh my God. I can’t believe that bastard did it.”

  “Rick… do you think?”

  “Yes… he blew up the palace it seems. Are you okay?”

  “Yes. Come on. There’s absolutely nothing for me to mourn there, but a life of servitude. I’d much rather spend the rest of my life in an adventure with you, even if it’s only us crossing the ravine together. They made quick work, climbing through the thick underbrush and scaling the hills to reach the top of the ravine. Just as Marius reported the starship was positioned at the edge of the cliff awaiting occupancy.

  “It looks like it’s under heavy guard; we’ll have to be careful. I just want you to know Yoshiri… if I had it to do over again, I would, There’s millions of light years between your planet and ours… but if I could go back in time and choose, I wouldn’t change anything. I’d still search the stars for you.”

  Tears fell down Yoshiri’s face and she did nothing to stop them, sobbing into Rick’s arms as he held her close, then kissed her deeply. “I love you Yoshiri.”

  “I love you too, Hernandez, you’ll always be my favorite prisoner, only this time I’m locking you in my heart and not just my cuffs.”

  He smiled at her and said, “Any way you want it. The cuffs are okay.”

  She playfully slapped at his arm and together they made their way to the starship. Yoshiri ordered Rick to crouch in the shadows as she approached the vessel. “Guards! What are you doing?!”

  “Attending our posts ma’am.”

  “If you wish to retain your status as the Queen’s elite consorts, I must implore you to be more observant of the radio communications. Haven’t you idiots heard?! The palace is under attack! Come with me and help protect our Queen!”
