Thirst

« Prev  Chapter  Next »



Evangeline had shined surfaces, projections, mirrors, gems the size of people in which she saw that no single line of age had come in all this time.

Her family was long dead, Earth strange and dying according the reports she requested and was always granted.

Spawn seasoned by her body thrived.

Planets were indeed named for her. Warships named for her Great Warrior.

The human pet, once a novelty, was now coveted and guarded so her Glabrx could continue to fuck her. Wasting away over almost a thousand years as he gave his very life to put more in her. Above all, he kept her happy. Learned the concept of human joy. Claiming it created the finest offspring. But she knew, secretly, he too had joy in their strange union.

Had the flesh dealer known how he’d armed so aggressive a species, never would he have sold her. The Necrimata might not have yet blot out the stars, but several system had fallen to the new wave of life. Many quadrants were now theirs.

And though Evangeline never saw proof of another human female when she roamed her rooms or the city in which she was lauded, she knew, as any thinking being would know, that somehow this species—honor bound as they were—collected every one they might find.

“You lied to me, Glabrx.” How long had it been since she’d cried? And eternity, a hundred human generations? She cupped his maw, turned his face to hers as they lay in her furs. “Two hundred years… Instead, for almost a millennia, you have given me more happiness than I might have ever imagined.”

“Your attention kept me potent.” Gray now, withering in these last few phases, his skin flaked, and his vigor drained. “Your love is more powerful than your wisp deceptions.”

Old, he was. His full lifespan achieved despite his constant deposits of life against her womb. Yet, she was still young, with many, many offspring that guarded her like a treasure. And a fleet of potential Necrimata vying for the chance to take her into their care once the Great Glabrx faded away.

More tears fell. “I cannot live without you, my love.”

In that palace, with their children, as violent and strange as they still were. As attentive and giving and utterly bizarre.

“I was commanded to hand over your life key.” Wheezing, growing all the more gray, Glabrx sunk more into his dying frame. “So you might continue your mission with Konjil.”

Kissing his ridged forehead, Evangeline snarled, “You wouldn’t dare.”

“I find myself incapable of sharing, even when our young come to see you. I hate them when they dare approach, wisp beauty.” Death began to cloud purple eyes in sunken sockets. “Another shall not have you, for I know such a thing would make you unhappy. Even in the afterlife, we remain as one.”

The last of his breath left a chest aged and molting, his final words to a being he’d whispered to in the dark as gentle as her simultaneous end. “I think I truly understand love…”

As his life faded, hers did in tandem. Her life key deactivated.

Evangeline draped over his form, a sweet smile on her lips.

And thus they were buried, and thus they were remembered. Statues of their final moments erected on all planets the Necrimata controlled.
