It had been weeks and weeks since he had been out of the chamber.  They were
passing between star systems, and there had not been a need for him to come
out -- no need for him to use up his protoblood.

She did not want to wake him up -- but she missed him.  His voice, his touch
(when she could get him to touch her), his presence...

And Stanley was not an alternative.  Not even.  No way.  No how.

She pressed her breasts against the cold glass of the cryochamber, feeling
her nipples hard and tender against the glass.  She ground her pussy against
the corner of the chamber as well, positioning the edge against her clit,
rubbing gently.  The heat from her snatch caused the ice on the inside of
the glass to lightly melt, she was so hot.

Suddenly, behind her she heard a rustling plant sound -- the sound of
Lyekka's presence.

"Xev..." Lyekka whispered.

Xev spun around, her arousal put in the background in favor of survival.
"Lyekka!  You're not...hungry...are you?"

"No...I ate a moth.  Was that okay?"  Lyekka had such a sweet way to her, it
was hard to be angry.  "It was not tasty, but it was made of protein, and I
am very full."

"Yes, that...that was ok."  Like Xev was going to chastise Lyekka for
fulfilling her needs.  Thank goodness Lyekka was full -- so what was she
doing pressing herself so close to Xev?  She could feel Lyekka's breath on
her neck, and smell her earthy scent.  Lyekka was warm, and Xev could sense
the softness of the plant's body through the thin material of the
transluscent wrap-around she wore as a dress.

"So...why aren't you sleepy?"

Lyekka stopped her sniffing and looked directly into Xev's eyes.  Beautiful
pools of cornflower blue met deeper green as the two looked at each other.
"I could smell your musk, your perfume," said Lyekka softly, tenderly, "and
I decided I wanted to make you happy."

"Don't you make people happy..." Xev took a deep breath, "Just before you
eat them?"

Lyekka smiled her sweet smile, and her pink tongue reached out and quickly
licked the tip of Xev's nose.  "I can eat people without making them happy,"
said the plant-woman as she traced the curl of Xev's ear, "And I can make
them happy without eating them."  Lyekka licked the edge of Xev's mouth,
tracing the fullness.

<<That was a good enough explanation>> thought Xev as her hyperactive libido
kicked in from second to fourth gear.  Wrapping her hands in Lyekka's hair,
she brought the blonde-haired woman's mouth to her and kissed her.  Lyekka
tasted like sweet wheatgrass and honey, and smelled like a rose garden on a
hot summer's day.  Taking her hand, still trading kisses, Xev led Lyekka to
her room.

As they lay down, Lyekka's clothes disappeared, revealing her sensuous body
and long legs.  As Xev took off her lizardskin dress, Lyekka smiled and
touched her own body.  When Xev's sweet brown nipples were revealed, Lyekka
looked at her own breasts and giggled -- and rosy pink nipples appeared in
the center of her breasts.  Touching them tenderly, she gasped as she
fondled the peaks.

"Oh!  That feels so good!  Why didn't I have any of these before?" Lyekka
whispered.

"I guess because you've never seen any," Xev replied softly.

Xev leaned in closer, pressing her lips to Lyekka's.  She felt the
plant-woman's warm breath in her mouth, and Lyekka entwined her arms around
Xev's neck, enveloping her in that heady fragrance that seemed a part of
her.  Xev's lips parted as Lyekka deepened the kiss, and she felt Lyekka's
tongue in her mouth, searching, stimulating Xev so that little electric
currents raced along her spine.

Xev melted against her, her hands reaching for Lyekka's breasts.  Her own
nipples were hard little points of pleasure as they rubbed against Lyekka's,
and she gave a little moan as Lyekka's hands began to caress the soft velvet
of her skin.

Lyekka moved down along Xev's body, her lips tracing a hot, moist path over
her breasts, her belly, and the hollow where her thigh joined her hip.
Reaching the auburn forest between Xev's legs, Lyekka gasped and touched Xev
gently.

"Is this what I'm supposed to look like?" Her fingers traced the lips and
folds, caressing the skin, seeing how a female human was put together.  A
soft touch on Xev's clit caused Xev to throw her head back and moan, and a
gush of moistness slipped from her pussy.  Lyekka slipped a finger into
Xev's pussy, deeply, and Xev's hips arched off the sheets and her buttock
muscles tightened convulsively as she gasped loudly.

Lyekka withdrew her finger and looked down at the blank intersection between
her own legs, touching herself.  Xev raised her head to look at what Lyekka
was doing, and was surprised to see soft blonde curls rising like seedlings.
A mound appeared under the seedlings, and beneath it the skin split in two
like a ripe fruit, dividing again into a woman's inner and outer lips.  A
small pea of a clitoris raised its head, and beneath the folds below, the
skin withdrew, making the deeper tunnel.  Beneath all that, the skin
puckered like a walnut, and then drew itself into a tiny burgundy anus.

"Wow," was the only coherent noise Xev could make at this miraculous
metamorphoses.

"I wanted it all," smiled Lyekka shyly.

Lyekka was irresistible, Xev thought, and the impulsive clusterlizard in her
genes encouraged Xev suddenly to bury her face in the lush blondness of
Lyekka's pubic hair, so different and yet now so similar to her own.  Lyekka
began to moan softly, tossing her head from side to side.  Her body came
alive under the expert ministrations of the loveslave, and she spread her
long legs wide, arching her hips upward as Xev's mouth found her nether lips
and her tongue raked along the sensitive outer edge.  Xev parted the folds
of Lyekka's pussy lips like a juicy plum, her tongue lapping eagerly at the
moistness within.

Lyekka put her hands against Xev's head, urging her forward, her body
trembling as she licked and sucked at the very center of Lyekka's newborn
sex.  Lyekka began to cry out, her body jerking spasmodically, and Xev
gripped her buttocks in an effort to keep her long lizard tongue centered on
her clit.  Xev dipped her long tongue into Lyekka's tunnel, reaching deeper
and deeper and then pressing upward tenderly and yet insistently on that one
spot buried inside, that she knew would guarantee pleasure.

Lyekka was breathing heavily now, and Xev responded in kind, imagining their
positions reversed.  Her own body was responding to the passion, and she was
hot and hungry for Lyekka's sweet juices.  Her tongue and lips were eating
her like a ripe fruit and Lyekka cried and whimpered with excitement.

Still gripping Lyekka's ass cheeks, Xev pulled them apart and then slipped a
finger into her virginal anus.  Lyekka's moans turned into a passionate
series of screams, Xev holding her breath as Lyekka trembled on the brink of
orgasm.  Then, with a final scream, Lyekka stiffened and collapsed, her
fragrant juices bathing Xev's lips and tongue as Lyekka's orgasm washed over
her.

Lyekka began to laugh her high girlish giggle, and stretched languorously
after it was over.  "That was good!" she said with her usual understatement.

Xev smiled, pleased.  Her love slave libido came in handy when in new
situations, and it was good to know that she could bring a woman pleasure.
"Wait...a woman?"  Xev mused to herself, "Yes...a woman -- now, at least."
Maybe Lyekka would like her now as much as the plant-woman liked Stanley,
and Xev would not have to fear being eaten someday for the plant's dinner.

Lyekka laughed as she threw her arms around Xev and pulled her down next to
her on the bed.  "You move good, you smell good, and you taste good."
Lyekka shifted position so that she held her weight poised above Xev.  Then
she slowly lowered herself so that her body covered Xev's.  She brushed the
damp hair off Xev's brow, her fingers tracing the outlines of Xev's face.
Lyekka lightly kissed Xev's forehead, eyes, and the tip of her nose, and Xev
in return ran her fingers along the smooth contours of Lyekka's back.

"Now I know what to do to make you happy," Lyekka whispered.

Their lips met and held, Lyekka's breasts crushing Xev's.  Lyekka began to
caress Xev's body as she deepened the kiss, her tongue darting into Xev's
mouth.  Xev sighed and relaxed as Lyekka touched her breasts and belly,
soothing and stimulating at the same time.  Her hands were comforting as
well as erotic, different from the rougher lovemaking of a man.

Suddenly Lyekka changed her position so that her head faced Xev's feet,
massaging the hard bone at the top of Xev's pussy.  She slowly followed the
outline of Xev's pussy lips, down then up again until Xev's hips began to
undulate and Xev spread her legs.  Lyekka's fingers slipped between Xev's
moistened nether lips, spreading them, and then placed her mouth on Xev's
pussy, licking along the inside of her snatch.

Lyekka's warm breath on Xev's sex and the roughness of her tongue against
her labia drove Xev to new heights of erotic tension.  Xev's pussy was damp
now, and the scent of her musk filled the room. Lyekka licked Xev's swollen
clit, opening her with her fingers and running her tongue inside to savor
the sweet juice within.  As Lyekka's fingers teased and tantalized, her
mouth kissed, nibbled, and caressed Xev's pussy, reaching again and again to
Xev's hardened clit.

Keeping the lovemaking deliberately slow, Lyekka prolonged the sensations
past all bearing, and Xev was soon reaching her peak, quivering in
anticipation.

"Please..." the loveslave begged for release, "Please, Lyekka!"

Her tension soon was at the height of pleasure, but being held in check by
the plant-woman's teasing tongue.  Then, when it was almost past bearing,
Lyekka sped up her motions.  Vibrating with ecstasy, Xev came, screaming as
her orgasm exploded like a string of firecrackers, glistening juices pouring
out of her pussy as she was enveloped with slow undulations of pleasure.

Lyekka rolled over and turned around, gathering Xev in her arms.  As Xev lay
back, catching her breath, Lyekka licked Xev's love juices off her fingers.
Then she lay by Xev's side, their breathing softening, enjoying the special
closeness that follows really great sex. Finally, Xev spoke, with honesty.

"You're pretty good for a plant."

"Pretty good?" Lyekka smiled and traced Xev's mouth with her fingers.

"Actually...well, you were great."  Xev giggled with newfound pleasure, her
love slave conditioning allowing her libido a few moments of relaxation
before it heated up again.  However, for now, Xev was totally exhausted.
Feeling safe, she snuggled up to Lyekka, and in a few moments, she was
asleep.

*************
"Xev was yummy," said Lyekka upon meeting Stanley in the bridge an hour
later.

"You didn't eat her, did you?" squeaked Stan.

"I did." Lyekka smiled.  "In her bed. She was tasty!" And she disappeared
into her pod.

With a high girly shriek, Stanley raced as fast as he could to Xev's
bedroom.  His heart was pounding as he ran down the halls, his mind filled
with the worst.  A bit of shoe, one of Xev's hand braces, perhaps a tuft of
red-gold hair.  That would be all that was left.

Stanley's breath caught in his throat as he rounded the corner, slowed
down.... and heard a slight humming of soft song.

"Veo-ay-oh" Xev hummed sprightly, combing her hair.  "Ohm-vah-*ohbaby*-ray,"
she giggled.

"Xev!"

"Stanley!" Xev pulled the soft sheets over her swollen breasts. "What's
wrong?"

Taking in her luscious form with his eyes, Stanley sighed with relief.  Xev,
seeing his shock fading to good cheer, smiled at him, her eyes twinkling.

She would have to remember to water the plant -- sometime soon.  Very soon.

Fin.
