Almost two hours after he left, Kyle returned to his quarters. As soon as he walked in, he removed his jacket and carefully laid it upon the back of his desk chair. He then moved over to a cabinet and opened it, pulling out a bottle of whiskey and two tumblers. After pouring a couple of fingers worth in each glass, he closed the bottle but left it out. Then, he picked up the tumblers and turned towards the bedroom. As he didn't see Alexis in the living room, she was either in his bed or in the bathroom. Either way, he was looking forward to seeing her.

"Alexis?" He called out as he approached the closed door to his bedroom.

Alexis has decided to go back to sleep seeing she had a nice comfortable bed to herself again. It did not happen often and she was going to enjoy it whilst she could. This time though she had undressed and grabbed one of his tees to go to sleep in. Her white dress was pooled on the floor standing out against the blackness of the room. She stirred as she heard him enter and call her name. She slowly sat up. “You are back and do not even look winded or bloody.” She surmised sleepily taking him in quickly. “Have you been long?”

"You should see the other guy," he said as he smiled softly, seeing her both in his bed and wearing one of his shirts. "Lieutenant Davis will not be walking for a while." Moving over to the side of the bed closest to her, he handed her one of the tumblers. He then held his out and tapped hers. "You look very comfortable in there."

"Comfortable bed." She said with a shrug taking the glass in her hands. Lieutenant Davis was one of her assigned interrogations for tomorrow so that would give her a reprieve of sorts and one less mind to pry into. "I can get up." She said not able to read his smile properly. Terran's smiled even if their worlds were ending.

Taking a healthy drink of his glass, Kyle put his glass down on his end table. He then started to strip down to his boxer briefs. "I'd rather join you in there," he responded with a hungry look in his eyes.

Alexis did not comment on his joining her. It was his bed, so he could do what he wanted. "So what happened with Davis?" She wondered sitting there sipping on the Terran whiskey. It was a good one, it burned just the right way in her throat.

After sliding in next to Alexis, Kyle leaned over and softly kissed the side of her neck, just behind her right ear. "He thought it was a good idea to summon me to a false situation, then ambush me. He received a broken jaw and two shattered kneecaps for his troubles. He is lucky that I allowed him to keep breathing. I thought it might be a teachable experience for the entire crew."

"They never learn." The woman sighed as she reached out blindly to put her glass down beside her as he kissed her neck. "He tried to kill Hump and Nathan... I often wonder if he was the one who did kill Nathan but his interrogations never revealed anything."

As he continued to nuzzle and kiss her neck, Kyle replied. "Well, perhaps now, he might be more susceptible to your questioning." He reached up and gently turned her face towards his. Then, after gazing deeply into her beautiful eyes, he leaned in and kissed her deeply.

Alexis was unable to respond to him as she was kissed. It was a deep kiss that left her breathless and unable to think about anything else other than the older man. She had wanted to say that she wondered who had taught him such good techniques to avoid her but it was lost.

As they kissed, Kyle slowly moved his hands over Alexis' back, and up through her hair, holding her to him. This was no infatuation or rebound relationship. He truly felt at peace when she was near him. He wanted nothing more than to love her and be loved by her, in return.

Alexis found it easy like stepping into the water to weave into his mind. She could feel the emotions she emitted from him but it left her confused as she pulled back looking at him. "Maybe I have a new way to make him susceptible." She agreed breathless.

Breathing heavily, Kyle responded, pulling her back against his body. "Oh? And what is it?" He started to nuzzle her neck again, planting small kisses and bites up and down its smooth length.

"Remind him of just how many people have kicked his ass." She whispered arcing slightly against him at his touch and kisses on her neck.

Kyle moved to look into Alexis's eyes. "No more talk of work," he said with a hungry grin. Over the next few hours, the pair did what they knew how to do, to bring pleasure to the other.

Finally, laying together, exhausted and happily satisfied, Kyle slowly traced his fingertips up and down Alexis's bare back. "Wow...!" He whispered to her. "That was amazing! Thank you for allowing me to be with you."

She lay there for a moment against his chest, limp and panting, then propped herself up on her elbows to grin at him. “It was…” Alexis agreed after a long moment where she had been trying to think and breathe.

Looking up into her deep, beautiful eyes, Kyle grinned and sighed. "I could get lost in those eyes of your forever, sweetheart."

“Then my plan is working perfectly.” She murmured off of him to lie next to him smirking still. She knew how to please men and women, it was part of her role after all but she did take pleasure in it. It was something to take the edge off her own pitiful life and the pain she inflicted on others in the name of the empire.

"Oh?" He chuckled softly. "And what, pray tell, was this plan?"

"Seduce the Executive Officer. Get him into my or a bed and then kill him." She said simply with a smirk. Only two out of the three had been her place, she was not so sure on the third part of the checklist. Seemed almost like it would be a waste now, he fitted with the crew, the Captain had not killed him or requested his removal and he had not tried to kill the Captain. Maybe it could be mutually beneficial for everyone.

Looking deep into her eyes, Kyle was silent for a few beats. Then, in a quiet, serious tone, he responded. "If ever the day comes, that you need to fulfil your plan, all I ask is that you give me a kiss powerful enough to carry me off into Valhala, knowing that I was truly loved and wanted."

"I believe I can fulfil that promise." Alexis nodded pushing her hair out of her face. She could promise that. Maybe one day it would happen or maybe one day it would not. It all depended on his species and who he annoyed, she would not do it without an order.

As he continued to look into her eyes, Kyle felt something deep inside finally relax. He would not need to keep looking over his shoulder. He felt secure in the knowledge that, when his time came, he would know it. "I love you, Alexis Agrax. I will never do anything to hurt you, so long as I live. I hope, one day, that you will feel as safe in my arms as I do right now, in yours."


Alexis said nothing in return. She did not love, and she certainly did not declare it. Declaring something like that left you weak and manageable but Terrans did not need to worry about that it seemed to her. They could have whims and fulfil them. “One day.” She said with a shrug. He would not be able to change her mind on love and how easy Terrans fell in and out of it so easily. “I should go…” she admitted sitting up slowly.

Reaching out and gently taking hold of her right forearm, Kyle spoke softly. "Please stay. I want you to think of my home as yours as well. Please don't think that you have to go. It would please me greatly if you stayed."

The woman flinched as she was grabbed in an automatic defence mechanism of herself before reminding herself it was Kyle. She did not need to be so uptight. Alexis glanced at the chronometer and sighed softly it was nearly 3 am. She could easily go to sleep there and then. " Okay." She murmured turning to look at him. "I do not do cuddling whilst I sleep." She told him. Sleeping like that was not for her and anyone who slept like that obnoxious in her opinion.

Kyle grinned softly. "Deal. No cuddling during sleep." He reached up and interlocked his fingers behind his head and continued to grin slightly. "Any other rules I should be aware of, my dear?" His tone wasn't teasing, but, it did have a slight level of amusement in it.

Alexis turned on her side away from him pulling the sheets up over her against the chill in the room and shook her head. Tomorrow she could think on it more and decide what she wanted from this. "That is enough for night one." She mused.

Smiling, Kyle moved up onto his left elbow and turned to Alexis. "Fair enough," he said, a soft smile on his face. He leaned in and kissed her gently behind her right ear, tgen again on the tip of her right shoulder. "Good night," he said softly. He then laid back down onto his back, his right hand resting on his chisled abs, while his left one was tucked up behind his head, leaving his left side wide open to Alexis, should she change her mind and wish to shift closer. He then closed his eyes and thought about how things were going. In a few minutes, he quietly drifted off to sleep.
