Blackstone

John’s Apartment

After getting out of bed that morning, John made a phone call to the Old Man, then got ready for the day. Lucy joined him in the shower, her legs apparently waterproof, and they talked a little with the sound of the running water masking their conversation. She apologized for not telling him her actual last name and again for making the decision to accept Mia into their family without his input, going so far as to get on her prosthetic knees to provide him with morning service to deal with his growing problem. He pulled her head back before she could start.

“Uh-uh, not so fast missy. You don’t get a get out of jail free card just because you happen to have a talented tongue.” He said, looking down at her, trying to be stern. Though Little John was betraying him at that time, ready to give her all the ‘Get Out of Jail Free Cards’ in the world right at that moment. 

“I would never, my Danna. This is my duty as your wife to take care of your needs, as it is your duty to take care of mine. I want you to have a clear head before you make any decision on Mia, but I know you have a big heart and can accept her love, as alien a concept as that is for her. Just be patient and let her come to you when she is ready, and accept whatever she is willing to give. She puts on a strong face, but she is quite damaged inside. Just like I could have become if you did not rescue me when you did.” She said, then licked the tip of his member, cleaning his precum that had already started to leak out.

“Damn it, Lucy, I want to get to know her a bit first at the very least. I don’t do one-night stands.”

“Lucky for you, she has already sworn lifetime service to you. Oaths like that are not something to be taken lightly; you literally hold her life in your hands now. So, accept her as your servant at the very least, but I want you to accept her as a woman as well. Now, I want you to take the frustrations you’re feeling out on my mouth and release your stress in me.” She replied, then enveloped his dick with her mouth. 

“You are a damn succubus, you know that, right?” He replied, surrendering to her talented tongue work. 

He ran his fingers through her soaked raven-black hair, then grabbed hold of the back of her head and thrusted deeper into her mouth. His cock met resistance about halfway in, his tip punching her uvula and causing her to gag. She grabbed his ass and squeezed, not letting him back off, so he pushed her deeper. Something gave way, and he slid all the way into her throat, hilting himself fully. A sadistic urge filled him all of a sudden, and he held her in place, his cock preventing her from breathing. 

“Lucy, from now on, you are not allowed to make unilateral decisions on my love life. I may already have many women in different worlds, but I love each one of them dearly, and they have my full attention when I’m with them. Just like while I’m here with you, you have my full attention.” 

“Mmm-Mrgh!” She hummed, making his cock vibrate in her throat. It was an interesting feeling and one he wanted to explore more. 

“However, I will accept your plan of adding Mia as my second wife. Just don’t push anyone else on me, please. Let’s get officially married at the very least before we do that.”

“Mmm-Mmm-Mmm-Mmmmmm,” She said, tapping his ass with her hand. She didn’t try to pull back, though. His cock felt every vibration, but as much as he wanted to enjoy that feeling, she would need air soon. 

“Oh? Would you like to breathe? I would have liked to have a breath this morning before falling into that trap too… well, I guess I will be nice and pull out.” He said, finally drawing his cock out of her mouth. The water from the shower head was cascading over both of them, hiding any tears that were in her eyes from his rough treatment of her.

“Hah, hah, hah, hah. I didn’t know you had it in you to do that to me.” She said, looking up at him, her eyes bloodshot from the lack of air.

“Was it too much?” He asked, slightly concerned now.

“Mmm, it was just right. You showed your dominance over me and put me in my place for overstepping without being cruel, as a proper husband should. I promise I won’t add any more women to your harem without asking you first. Not that I know anyone else here on this planet that would be interested, and we are not returning to the Combine just to find more women for you.” She replied, kissing his cock again. “Now, use me please. Take your frustrations out on me, relieve your stress in my mouth.”

“You really like being a submissive?”

“I do. I hope someday we can get some soft bondage ropes and I can show you how to tie me up in shibari. It is sometimes wonderful to lose all feeling of control, to surrender yourself to the man you love and trust.” She took his cock into her mouth again, causing him to shiver a bit as her tongue wrapped around his glans. His ejaculation control skill activated, but he shut it off immediately, not wanting to drag this out longer right now. They had already been in here for a fair bit of time.   

“We will do that someday. Now, I am not pulling out until I finish or you tap my ass again.” He said, holding her head and thrusting in and out of her mouth again, burying himself to the hilt each time. She only gagged a little as his member once again invaded her throat, her neck visibly swelling at the apex of his every thrust. 

*Schlickt, Schlickt, Schlickt*

She didn’t tap, taking short breaths through her nose when he pulled back, watching his face the entire time. She had to keep blinking water out of her eyes, but she kept eye contact with him as his orgasm quickly built up, looking content at the treatment she was receiving. 

He gave in to that feeling two minutes later, the expansion of his pelvic girdle warning his release was imminent. “Gah, here it comes, don’t spill a drop, my love.” He said, thrusting one last time before cumming straight down her throat. His hips kept twitching as pulse after pulse went down her esophagus and into her stomach, filling her belly with his seed. He pulled back when he was almost finished, feeding a small amount into her mouth before pulling out completely.

*Schlickt, pop*

“Mmm… My Danna… why does it taste like cherries?” She asked, licking the remaining cum off his cock. 

“Because you’re a good girl, my Tsuma. And good girls get rewarded.” He said, pulling her back to her feet. He wiped her face and gave her a kiss, holding her tightly for a few more minutes before they got out of the shower.

That Afternoon

Blackstone Beach

“C’Mon, little one, kick your legs!” 

“Yes, Daddy! Like this?”

“You got it. Now paddle your arms as I showed you.”

“Okay!”

“You’re doing it, now I am going to let go, but I will be right here. You’ll be fine.”

John and Rei were out in the water, John teaching her how to swim. Apparently, that was a small part of her life that had somehow been missed before they left the Draconis Combine, so John decided to spend a couple of hours that afternoon to teach her. 

After lunch, they stopped by the store to get all three of them swimsuits: a light blue one-piece for Rei, while the two women found fairly modest matching black two-piece suits with short skirts as part of the bottoms. John was just wearing a blue Hawaiian shirt covered in pineapples of all things and a pair of khaki shorts he found in his closet.

The two women didn’t get in the water, choosing to lie out in the sun on a pair of the many deck chairs littering the beach, drinking some canned fruity drinks they’d brought from the Blackcat. They both had John liberally coat them with sunblock earlier, though Blackstone’s atmosphere filtered out most of the sun’s UV rays, neither wanting to tan their paler skin.

Mia flinched when John touched her at first, then apologized for that and allowed him to cover her exposed back, neck and shoulders. 

“Don’t apologize. Just let me know if I am making you uncomfortable, and I will step back.” He said, holding the bottle of sunblock in one hand, a squirt of the cream in the other. 

“It… it is fine, John Wayne. I am, just not used to being touched like this. Please, do my legs as well.”

John did it, being gentle and deliberate with his movements. He then captured Rei, who Lucy had just soaked in the cream as well, and dragged her out into the water to swim.

She bobbed around quite ungracefully at first, but the salty waters of the sea made pretty much anyone buoyant, so there was no real fear of her drowning. Still, he stayed beside her like a mother goose, not wanting her to get scared and thrash around until she sank underwater. He didn’t need to worry, as before long she started chasing after him in the water, trying to tackle him. He would let her catch him, then fake fall into the water, coming up underneath her to pick her up and toss her around.  

They came in after a while and rinsed off the salt from a nearby open-air beach shower the town had installed just for that purpose, then joined the two women on the deck chairs. Rei climbed on top of his chest and played with his beard as he chatted with Lucy and Mia, the little girl falling asleep shortly afterwards. Lucy held his hand, happily watching the two of them bond even further. 

It was a fun afternoon, but all good things must come to an end.

An armoured car roared up the beach, coming to a halt beside them. Rei came awake with a scream, and Mia had jumped in front of John, like she was going to stop the car with her own body. Trix was driving and gave them a sheepish wave, while James stuck his head out of the passenger window, bellowing to be heard over the engine. “John! Get it, we have an emergency.”

“What happened?” He said, trying to calm Rei down from her sudden awakening.

“They received a transmission at the Starport. Someone in a really big ship is asking who defends this world.”

“What?” John replied, handing Rei to Lucy.

“Yeah, something about wolves and dogs. It was really weird.”

“Captain James Kearney, what exactly did they say in their transmission?” 

James looked at Mia for a moment, then closed his eyes, recalling what the tech said over the phone. “Their exact words were ‘The Wolves of Kerensky have claimed this world for their own. What tame dogs defend it?’ “

Her face turned pale. “John Wayne, Captain James Kearney, we are in trouble. That is Clan Wolf’s traditional Batchall declaration. They intend to conquer this world. You need to respond, and soon, or else you will be overwhelmed.”

Blackstone Starport

“The Wolves of Kerensky have claimed this world for their own. What tame dogs defend it? Reply now or be shot down like the Freebirth scum you are!”

John, James, Mia, Trix, and a handful of technicians were in the operations centre, hearing Clan Wolf’s latest message.  Lucy had taken Rei back to the apartment, giving him a quick kiss goodbye as they had piled into the back of the armoured car. James had said the governor was out of communication range at the time, visiting the Star League Cache, so it was up to them to deal with the issue.

“So what does this mean, Mia?” He asked her, no longer hiding the fact that she was a former member of these clans.

“They are waiting for you to accept their challenge. Traditionally, you are supposed to tell them what forces you are using to defend the planet, and where the battle will be held. You may also put forth what you wish take as Isorla if you win the battle, which is usually battlemechs, though if I am honest, you will not win.

On top of the fact that it is most likely a Battlecruiser coming towards the planet, it is standard doctrine to have at least a Galaxy on board one of those with multiple dropships to ferry them around. Those numbers alone could easily take the entire Oberon Confederation and that pirate nation at the same time. On top of that, Clan technology is superior even to Star League weapons; everything that I have seen here would fall in short order to even most of our lighter-weight mechs. Not to mention their warriors have trained at operating mechs from a very young age, over nearly everything else.”

“What do you suggest then? Surrender?” James said, having got a cursory debriefing from John about Mia’s past.

“No, not that. Surrendering without a fight will make it worse for your people. What they want is to have a fair fight, to prove who the better warriors are. If you account yourselves well, you and your people will be treated with much more respect. I can help make your response but I need time and to know exactly what forces we have at our disposal.”

“Time? No problem. Start planning.” John said, walking over to the radio operator. “This thing on the right channel?” He asked the man sitting there.

“Yes, Sir. Just click this button to transmit, and release it to stop.” He said, holding out to him a microphone that looked like it came off a CB radio.

“Good.” He replied, then took a breath. “Unknown Call-*click* -irate attack. Ou- *click* is malfunctioning. Ple- *click* Thirty Mikes as we affect repai- *Click* Out.”

He handed the mic back to the tech and turned around. Everyone in the room was looking at him like he had two heads. “Don’t give me that look. When we were on some bullshit exercises, I sometimes wanted to take a nap before returning to camp, so a radio problem was the best way to do that. I bought you thirty minutes, so let’s make the most of it.”

“You just bet our lives on that old chestnut?” James said, well aware of that trick.

“Yeah. No matter how elite these people are supposed to be and how advanced their equipment is compared to ours, I have a feeling we have more real-world experience in this room than any of their companies has put together. So whatever we do, we need to play to that advantage, as that might be our only one.”  

“Old age and treachery?”

“Old age and treachery.”

“John Wayne, what do you mean by that?”

“It is just a saying we have here in the Innersphere. Fighting against your opponents strengths guarantees their victory, so you exploit their weaknesses to gain the upper hand. To do that, you need experience, which comes with age.”

“I understand. You two have already proven you have sound tactics against the pirates, but do not assume those same tactics will work on the Clans. They are not likely to fall for the same mistakes.”

“They might. They just send their old warriors off to die, right? Believing they are no longer worthy of serving on the battlefield other than as cannon fodder?” John asked, a plan churning in his mind.

“They do. What are you up to, John Wayne?”

“Rule number one. Never underestimate your opponent. We are going to craft our response so they are the ones who underestimate us.”

With that, they sat down, going over a list of what they could reasonably bring to bear against this indomitable threat against their planet.

“The Wolves of Kerensky have claimed this world for their own. What tame dogs defend it?” Came the challenge again, approximately thirty minutes after John had sent his ‘broken’ transmission. 

James read over the response one more time, chuckling to himself. They were having him do it, not because he was the CO, but cause he could sound old and frail when he wanted to, yet also sounded like he still had some steel in his spine. Which was exactly what they were looking for here.

“Long in the tooth we may be, the Guards of Blackstone, a Solahma unit of the Oberon Confederation, will defend our planet from the pups that have barely stopped sucking on the teat. We declare that we have a mixed Star of mechs from light to a single assault, all as beat up and ancient as our warriors, weighing in at a total of three hundred tons, and one VTOL that is more a troop transport than a weapon of war. We grant Safcon (safe conduct to the site of battle) to the pups who choose to invade our home and will meet you at the following coordinates in the Wizards Mountains, to commence battle in the Circle of Equals, at noon in two days’ time. Be wary, young pups, there be eyes watching you in those hills. Grow too greedy, and the land itself will turn against you.”

James laid the microphone down, then looked up at John, chuckling at the absurdity of everything that had happened over the last week. “So much for my damn retirement.”
