Chapter 564: Angsty Empress

Xavier stepped out of Reva's quarters exactly two hours later and walked down the corridor to his own room. The metal doors chimed and slid open to reveal Xalvoria sitting upright on the center of his mattress.

The Empress of the First Pillar wore absolutely nothing. Her crimson hair draped over her pale shoulders to frame her flawless figure under the cabin lights.

Xavier ignored the regal display, crossed the room, dropped onto the mattress beside her, and rolled over to make himself comfortable against the pillows.

"Where did you go?" Xalvoria demanded as she crossed her arms over her chest. "And why are you naked?"

"I had a personal matter to handle," Xavier replied with a careless shrug. "I took care of it."

Xalvoria leaned closer and sniffed. Her crimson eyes narrowed in immediate disgust. "Why do you smell like that?"

"We dropped down to a dustball planet," Xavier said. "The environment was highly toxic and laced with radiation."

"I am not talking about planetary radiation." Xalvoria glared down at him. "You smell like the two females from your crew. Both of them."

A wide grin spread across Xavier's face. "I was with them. They are my lovers, and I just spent the last four hours keeping them very pleased."

Xalvoria's expression morphed into pure outrage as she abandoned her regal composure. "We established a fourteen-day agreement for this data transfer. You are supposed to be stabilizing my core, yet you leave to entertain other women."

"The agreement dictates that you obey me," Xavier countered. "You passed out while I had a crew to manage."

"I am awake now." Xalvoria pointed toward the attached washroom. "Go take a bath. Wash their scent off your skin so we can continue the transaction."

Xavier closed his eyes and let his head sink deeper into the pillow. "I am not going anywhere. I have been awake for two days straight fucking you because you kept begging me, an then throwing mountains and dealing with traitors while you slept peacefully in my bed. I am exhausted."

"The biological clock in my cells demands the next transfer," Xalvoria insisted. "It is time to continue."

"I am not stopping you." Xavier gestured casually toward his waist. "You can start right away."

Xalvoria stared at him in utter disbelief. "I refuse to touch you while you reek of those girls, especially that vampire."

"That is not my problem," Xavier said with a dismissive wave of his hand.

He opened one eye to watch her reaction. He thoroughly enjoyed the sight of the mighty galactic ruler trembling with frustration. She possessed enough power to obliterate entire star systems, yet she was completely helpless against him in this room. The divine mandate bound her to his bloodline, forcing her to swallow her ancient pride.

"Whenever you are ready," Xavier teased. "You can start right now."

Xalvoria stared at the relaxed captain. Her crimson eyes burned with a mixture of profound hatred and undeniable desperation. The biological clock within her cells pulsed with an agonizing burn. She needed the cure, and the divine mandate bound her survival entirely to his bloodline.

'I will kill him the second my core is fully stabilized,' Xalvoria thought. 'I will tear his limbs off and burn this entire ship to ash.'

She swallowed her ancient royal pride. The ruler of the First Pillar crawled across the mattress. Her pale skin caught the cabin lights as she positioned herself over his hips. Xavier kept his eyes half-closed, watching her every move with a victorious smirk.

"You are a disgusting mortal," Xalvoria whispered.

"And you are right where I want you," Xavier replied. "Get to work."

Xalvoria clenched her jaw. She looked down at him, fully aware that he still carried the scents of the mercenary and the vampire. The utter humiliation threatened to break her composure. She forced herself to lean forward until her crimson hair draped over his thighs like a curtain.

She pressed her lips against the tip of his cock.

Because Xavier was completely drained from spending the last four hours with his two beautiful lovers, the transaction proved far more grueling than she anticipated. He offered absolutely no assistance, keeping his eyes half-closed and his breathing steady, forcing the Empress to do all the work in the quiet of the chamber.

For the next hour, she labored in complete silence. Her ancient, regal dignity fractured a little more with every passing minute as she catered entirely to the exhausted mortal captain. She hated him, she hated the scent of the girls lingering in the room, and she hated the desperate necessity of her own survival, but she did not stop.

Eventually, her hard work broke through his fatigue. She was rewarded with a fresh and hot load of his milk directly in her mouth. And like a starving animal, she swallowed every single drop of it, refusing to even let his dick out of her mouth.

The moment the transaction finally concluded and she swallowed the vital essence required for the cure, the chamber erupted in a blinding, golden light. The primordial starlight of Zephyros surged violently into her body, meeting her matriarchal energy in a brilliant flash.

Xalvoria gasped and collapsed against his chest. Her entire body trembled as the agonizing burn of the biological clock within her cells finally calmed. The genetic rot threatening to destroy her core stabilized, temporarily sealed by the degrading effort she had just endured.

Xavier let out a satisfied breath. He didn't even open his eyes as he lazily tangled his fingers in her damp crimson hair.

"Good girl," Xavier muttered, his voice heavy with sleep.

Within seconds, the captain was dead to the world, leaving the fully cured, completely humiliated Empress of the First Pillar resting against him in the dark.

However, she wasn't satisfied just yet. She wanted to taste the pleasure she had worked so hard for.

She looked at Xavier for a few seconds, but when he didn't open his eyes, she raised herself and lined his dick to her wet entrance.

And then, she slid down, immediately waking Xavier up.
