CORINNE

Corinne wasn’t going to leave him in such an intense state of arousal—that would be dangerous. The manual had said K - Unit Cyborgs needed a sexual release every night and she intended to give him one. But not the way he wanted.

She wasn’t pleased with the way their session had gone.

She’d been trying to strengthen his programming, but she wasn’t at all sure she’d succeeded.

No matter how she tried to make him promise not to hurt any of the male scientists who were rude to her—and it wasn’t an uncommon occurrence—he refused and insisted he would hurt anyone who disrespected her.

This response was unacceptable, as far as Corinne was concerned. Not that she liked being disrespected—she didn’t. But nobody deserved to die or get mangled by an angry Cyborg for being rude.

And then there was the matter of the big K - Unit’s extreme possessiveness.

They had barely known each other twenty-four hours and yet he was insisting she was his.

That was a dangerous trait in a Cyborg —it made her wonder if that was why more of the K - Units hadn’t been made.

Maybe their Kindred DNA made them too territorial to be obedient.

She took K -lx into the bathroom and turned on the shower. The minute it was hot, she ordered him inside. Then she slipped off her nightgown and followed him in.

“Hands to yourself, K -lx,” she ordered, when he raised them to cup her breasts. They still felt heavy with nectar, but Corinne barely noticed anymore. She was too invested in driving her lesson home.

“Mistress…” K -lx looked angry and rebellious but she could still feel how much he wanted her. “ Mistress , please,” he growled, ducking his head to come down from his great height and meet her gaze. “ Let’s just talk about this—can’t we?”

His words gave Corinne pause…but only for a moment. This had gone too far—she still had to establish dominance.

“Face the wall, hands on the tiles,” she directed. “ And spread your legs for me.”

But to her surprise, the big Cyborg didn’t move. He just stood there while the warm water rained down on both of them, a grim look on his face.

“Why? You going to finger my ass and make me shoot for you again like last night?” he demanded.

In fact, that was exactly what Corinne had been going to do. A prostate massage should be a quick and effective way to make him orgasm and it would also show him who was boss.

“I’m going to make you come my way,” she answered, lifting her chin. “ So assume the position and spread for me!”

“No,” he growled, his hands squeezing into fists.

“What?” Corinne looked up at him uncertainly. “ You’re disobeying a direct order?” She felt a flash of fear—was he about to go Rogue and kill her?

K-lx must have felt her fear because he shook his head.

“I’m not going fucking Rogue , Mistress ,” he growled. “ The Tolleg surgeons who made me built in some free will. Not a lot, but enough to ensure that I don’t have to follow orders that cause harm or self-loathing.”

“But—” Corinne began, but he didn’t let her finish.

“I let you finger-fuck me last night because it gave you pleasure and I wanted to please you.” His eyes were blazing as he spoke.

“ It got me off and I could feel you coming too—that was fucking hot. But I won’t let you do it just because you’re fucking angry at me!

” He thumped his broad chest with one big, metal fist. “ I may belong to you, but I belong to myself too. At least a little.”

Corinne had no idea what to say to him. She felt guilty all of a sudden because K -lx was right—she had been going to get him off that way because she was angry. She’d been treating him like less than a person.

But he is less than a person, a little voice argued in her head. He’s a Cyborg !

If anyone had ever asked her before, she would have denied that she thought the Units she worked with had been completely stripped of their personhood and humanity. She always tried to treat them with respect—even though most of them had been pared down to barely thinking pieces of meat.

But K -lx was different. He might not be fully human—or fully Kindred —but he was a person with thoughts and feelings and emotions. The longer she worked with him, the more clear that became.

However, he was also a seven-foot-tall killing machine who had already murdered two innocent techs when he had gone into Overload . If she couldn’t control him and keep him in check, he became a dangerous liability to everyone aboard the station!

“Fine,” she said at last, taking a step back from him.

“ I won’t give you a prostate massage tonight.

But you’re not going to bed until you orgasm!

According to your manual, you have to come at least once a night.

” She pointed a stiff finger at his cock, which was still defiantly erect.

“ Jerk yourself off for me right here, right now.”

“Yes, Mistress .” K -lx bit out her title like it was a curse.

His eyes were smoldering as he took his thick shaft in one massive metal hand and began to stroke.

Corinne thought about leaving the shower…but that would be showing weakness. She intended to stay here and see this through to the bitter end, she told herself, even though it gave her no pleasure at all.

But if that was true, why was her heart still pounding and why did her pussy feel so wet as she watched the big Cyborg slowly stroke himself? He kept his eyes locked with hers as he pleasured himself, fisting the angry red club between his legs like it was some kind of weapon.

Though she tried not to, Corinne could feel his emotions loud and clear through their Link . Frustration …anger…and ravening lust raced between them like lightning. She had to squeeze her thighs together because she was feeling his pleasure and it was making her pussy ache with need.

She kept remembering what he’d said about how he wanted to eat her pussy until she cried for him.

What the hell was wrong with him, saying something like that?

She’d never been with a man who wanted to do that to her.

Artie had tried a few times, but she could feel how much he didn’t like it and she’d stopped him before very long.

But somehow when K -lx talked about how badly he wanted to taste her, she believed him.

K-lx’s deep voice broke her train of thought.

“Fucking you in my mind right now, Mistress ,” he growled as his hand went faster and his hips pumped. “ Fucking your soft little pussy until you moan my name.”

His words sent a shiver through her, despite the warm water raining down on them both.

“You…you can’t say that to me!” she protested breathlessly.

“Too fucking late.” His hips pumped harder. “ If it wasn’t for my programming, I’d have you pinned up against the wall right now. I know you want it—even if you don’t admit it. I can smell the lust on you.” His nostrils flared. “ I’d split you wide open with my cock until I got my knot inside you.”

“You…your…” Corinne didn’t know what to say.

“My knot.” His big metal hand stroked the swollen mass of flesh at the base of his massive shaft.

“ Once I get my knot in you, you’re not going anywhere, Mistress .

Nothing you can do but spread your soft little pussy for me and let me breed you.

Let me pump your hot little cunt full of my cum and plant my baby inside you. ”

His words were so beyond the pale…so completely different from anything any other Cyborg —or any other man for that matter—had ever said to her that Corinne found herself speechless.

“You…how dare you say these things to me?” she got out at last.

“Because it’s how I feel—and how you feel too, if you’d fucking admit it!

” he growled. “ How long has it been since you’ve been fucked, Mistress ?

How long since you had your pussy plowed good and hard?

So hard you were walking funny the next day and maybe it hurt to sit down?

When’s the last time a male put you on your knees, spread your legs, and fucked you until you moaned for him? ”

“That’s enough!” Corinne exclaimed. But since she didn’t phrase her words in the form of a direct order, he kept on talking.

“That’s what you need,” he told her, his eyes blazing. “ You need to get bred—hard and often. Your curvy little body is begging for it. But first you need your pussy licked.”

“I do not!” Corinne denied weakly, but her head was suddenly filled with a mental image—the huge Cyborg on his knees before her with one of her legs over his broad shoulder while he pressed her back against the shower tiles and tongued her pussy open eagerly.

Was he sending her this picture through their Link ?

“Yes you fucking do,” he growled. “ You’d better be careful, Mistress or I might give you exactly what you need.”

And then, with a low, animalistic roar, he started to come.

Corinne watched as jet after jet shot from his massive cock to paint the dark blue tiles of the shower.

She’d thought the night before that he only made a lot of seed because he’d been in Stasis for so long.

But the display he was putting on now proved her wrong.

Obviously it was a Kindred trait to make massive volumes of seed.

Or else, maybe it was just a K -lx trait.

Either way, he kept his eyes locked with hers as he shot his load and she could feel him wishing he was shooting inside her—filling her up with his cock and his cum…knotting her and breeding her, just as he had threatened to do.

It was shocking and frightening…but why did it also make her feel weak in the knees? Why was her pussy still so wet and swollen? And why did her breasts ache and her nipples feel so tender and sensitive?

Corinne didn’t have the presence of mind to answer any of those questions. She only knew she had to get away. Turning , she stepped out of the shower and grabbed a towel to wrap around herself. She wasn’t going to be subjected to this one more minute, she told herself.

Without another word, she left him in the shower and went back to her room alone.
