“Hey, Dad,” I call as I enter his house. “Where’s Mom?”
“She’s not here,” Dad calls from the back room. He emerges and stands in the doorway, wiping his hands on a rag. “What do you need?”
“I don’t need anything,” I say sourly. I eye the photo on the wall. It’s a picture of Mom and Dad, and it’s hanging crooked. I fix it and then face him. “Why do you think I need something?”
“When’s the last time you dropped by unannounced?”
“Two days ago.”
“Right. When you were hungry and didn’t have anything to barter for food.”
I scowl and turn my gaze back onto the picture. Dad’s skin looks a darker shade of blue than it normally is, and Mom’s hair looks black instead of its dyed dark blue color. Her eyes are a bright blue compared to Dad’s neon yellow. As a result, mine are a green color with a bare trace of Dad’s neon. Mom’s skin is peach, which makes my skin a rather light blue. I’m not nearly as tall as Dad, but I’m just as muscular as he is.
“You don’t deny it.” Dad chuckles. “Are you hungry again?”
“Can’t a son want to see his old man?”
“Sure, but you did ask about your mom as soon as you opened the door.”
“Can’t a son want to see his parents?” I amend.
“Sure, sure.” Dad shakes his head. “You just want to talk then? Make it fast.”
“Why? Are you going somewhere?”
Dad cocks his head to the side. “I do have a job, unlike you,” he teases.
“Yes, yes. The famous pilot Chrix who stole a woman from Earth.”
“I didn’t steal your mother. I picked her.”
“You basically abducted her,” I protest.
"It's not an abduction if it was willing," Dad stresses with a shrug. "Your mother didn't complain one bit. She enjoyed living on my ship for a time. It was some of the best weeks of my life. Just her and me and—"
“I really don’t need to know the details,” I say dryly, holding up my hands.
Dad smirks. “You come here, bringing up old memories… How can I not reminisce?”
“Oh, you can, on your own time or with Mom, not with me.”
Dad just shrugs. “Regardless, I have to do a run.”
“To Earth?”
“Yep.”
“To do what?” I ask. “Not to pick up women?”
Decades ago, the Grots came to Nore and destroyed the planet. While there, we fought back. Well, Dad and the Novans fought back, I should say. As a result, the Grots grew angry and killed all of the women. Every last one of them. The males all fled and went to space, surviving in their spaceships.
But they didn’t just survive. They came up with new technology, and they blasted the Grots out of orbit. The Grots were the ones annihilated, and because the Grots had been fighting Earth at the time, we saved the Earthlings as well.
Which meant the Earthlings were very grateful.
And their gratitude meant that they gave the Novans some of their women.
Now, the Novans live on Kuria, a planet that is about a full twenty-four-hour flight from Earth. Some of the Novans have impregnated Earthling women. Those babies, like me, are called Kurians.
Yes, only some of the Novans have impregnated the women from Earth. Why? Not for lack of trying, but biologically, the Novans discovered that for an Earthling woman to become pregnant with Novan ejaculate, the woman has to orgasm. The two also have to love each other.
There had been a bit of a cultural clash at first that caused some problems for the Novans. They had been used to fucking any woman they came across. Novans were all about fucking. They would fuck all the time, day and night, until they married. Then, they were completely devoted to their spouse.
But Earthling women aren’t as horny. They don’t want to spread their legs for every male they see, and the Novans didn’t understand that at first. They also didn’t understand the concepts of rape or divorce. The clash caused more than a few of the Novan breeders to never find an Earthling woman to love him, and eventually, Overlord Nestrol wiped out the breeders and gave them new positions. After that, the women were given more freedom, and they were much more apt to finding love on their own.
Not that I know anything about love. I've fucked a few of the Earthling women here, but they're all older now. We haven't had a new shipment of women from Earth for the longest time, and while there are Kurian women, I just haven't found the woman for me.
Yet. She’s out there, somewhere.
“Are you listening to me?” Dad asks.
“Sorry. What were you saying?”
Dad sighs and flings the towel onto his shoulder as he places his hands on his hips. “I said that the run to Earth is to bring machines down there. It’s not for women. Why? You bored of all the ones here?”
I shrug. “I don’t know. I think I’m just bored in general. Life here is too…”
“Mundane?”
I sigh and run a hand through my hair. I leave it shaved on the sides, but the top part grows long. “I haven’t been to Earth in ages.”
Dad wags a finger at me. "You weren't ever supposed to go with me on any of those trips," he warns.
“I never left the ship,” I protest.
“Never?” Dad asks dryly, lifting his eyebrows.
I shrug. “As far as you know.”
He shakes his head but laughs. “I can’t even be upset. If I were you, I would’ve done the same thing.”
I grin, my cheeks hurting. “I used to stay awake the entire flight to Earth and then opt for deep sleep on the way back to Kuria. Earth always seemed
