It is the 24th century and the human population has died out. All that is left is The Counsel, a computer uploaded with the brains of 100 geniuses before last of humanity died out from wars, biohazards and sterility. These same geniuses invented a time machine that allowed them the ability to choose insignificant people throughout history that if they were to disappear would have no significant impact on history and change how everything had played out. They chose 20,000 people (half males and half females) going as far back as prehistoric times and as recently as the 20th century. All 20,000 people are between the ages of 18 and 26 years. They have been tested to show they are all fertile. They kept these 20,000 people in biostasis until the earth had healed from all the damage that humanity had inflicted on it. They had created robots to help the process of healing of the climate and land and sea. It took about 140 years but The Counsel was finally satisfied with Earth’s healing and were ready for the repopulation to begin. They divided the 20,000 people into 200 settlements of 100 people each (again half male and half female). They made sure each community had as diverse a gene pool as possible. They set up settlements near the ruins of major cities. This story takes place in the Clinton settlement which is southeast of the ruins of Kansas City. The one hundred people in this settlement include William Booker, a 25 year old high school math teacher from 1996 from right where this settlement was constructed. He will discover he is the only person from this area and from the most modern time period of any of the other 99 inhabitants. The Counsel will be communicating with the new inhabitants with holographic heads that change each time they are summoned or need to intervene. The story starts as the new inhabitants are awakened from their biostasis chambers. They have all been implanted with a device that interprets all languages into their own. All awaken naked and are promptly showered to clean off the goo that has helped keep them alive. The only clothing provided to them are very form fitting shorts (basically briefs) that leave nothing to the imagination and form fitting tank tops. They are all led into a large chamber that looks like an open gymnasium where The Counsel represented by a holographic head explains what happened to Earth and how they were selected to repopulate it. They are told that the clothes they are wearing are all the clothes they

Chapter 8: Rainy Morning Indulgence

The steady drum of rain on the dome was the only sound when William woke to the sharp, clean scent of the salve and the deeper heat of Visha’s body already moving against his, her slick cunt swallowing his morning erection with a single, wet slide. “The forest waits,” she breathed into his neck, her hips setting a slow, grinding rhythm that made the fresh bandage on his arm pull tight, “but this hunger does not.” Her hand slid between their bodies, her fingers working her clit in rough circles as she fucked herself on him, each downward stroke a possessive claim chased by the filthy, wet sound of their joining. He gripped her hip with his good hand, his own release building in a tight coil low in his gut, and when she came it was with a silent, shuddering clamp of her inner muscles that milked his orgasm from him in deep, pulsing streaks. She collapsed onto his chest, her sweat mixing with his, and in the grey dawn light her dark eyes held not triumph but a question as she traced the edge of his bandage, the storm outside now a quiet echo of the one they’d weathered between them.

“This mark is simple,” she finally said, her finger still resting on the linen. “The wolf was hungry, you were in its way.” She pushed herself up, swinging her leg over him, the cool air hitting his wet skin. “But the other man inside you, the one from the world of metal and numbers… what hungers does he carry?” Before he could answer, she leaned down and took his softening cock into her mouth again, her tongue rough and demanding, as if she could taste the answer in his salt and spend.

Her mouth worked him back to full hardness, the wet suction pulling a groan from his throat as she deep-throated him with a practiced ease that left no room for gentle affection. "Tell me," she mumbled around his cock, her words slurred and thick, "does that world of yours fuck this well, or was it all lonely equations?" He grabbed a fistful of her wild black hair, not to guide her but to anchor himself against the visceral pull of her question and the raw pleasure rippling up his spine. The sterile, metallic air of the dome filled with the scent of their sex and the rhythmic, obscene sounds of her fervent sucking. When she finally released him with a slick pop, her dark eyes gleamed with a challenge that had nothing to do with the hunt and everything to do with the man she was determined to unravel.

He watched her wipe her mouth with the back of her hand, the taste of him still on her lips, and the words left him in a breathless, unstoppable rush. “My world was all lonely equations,” he confessed, his voice cracking as he stared at the pulsating algae-light. “Endless concrete, the hum of machines, and faces staring at screens instead of into each other’s eyes during a hunt.” He told her about the silent apartment, the students who didn’t listen, the profound, aching disconnect that followed him like a ghost even here. “I am the only one of my kind, Visha, and sometimes that emptiness is a deeper wound than any wolf’s tooth.”

Visha stared at him, her breath warm on his wet skin, then leaned down to bite his shoulder—hard enough to bruise. “Then fill that emptiness here,” she growled, her hand wrapping around his cock and guiding it back into her soaking heat with a rough, sure stroke. She rode him with a furious, deepening rhythm, her cunt gripping him like a fist. “My people are dust, and your world is ghosts,” she panted, her nails digging into his chest, “so fuck this emptiness full of us.” He thrust upward, a raw shout tearing from his throat as he spilled into her, the physical claim a violent, perfect answer to the hollow silence he’d described.

Meanwhile in Nala and Pakal’s pod, the same rain tapped a restless rhythm that Pakal paced to, his healing shoulder a knot of frustration. “The walls are too close,” he muttered, running a hand over the smooth, unyielding surface. Nala watched him from their platform, then stood and silently pulled her red briefs down, letting them pool at her feet before guiding his hand to the wet heat between her thighs. “Then forget the walls,” she whispered, her voice a low tremor against his neck as his fingers slid inside her, “and map this territory instead.”

He groaned, his other hand fumbling with the tie of her tank before simply tearing the thin fabric aside, his mouth finding her nipple as his fingers pushed deeper inside her. “The geography here is... wet,” he mumbled against her skin, his earlier restlessness channeling into the focused pressure of his thumb circling her clit. She arched into him, her breath catching, and guided his head lower. “Then learn the river, not the stone,” she gasped, pulling him down until his tongue replaced his fingers, licking a broad, filthy stripe through her folds. The sound of the rain was swallowed by her shuddering moans as his mouth worked her toward release.

His tongue delved deeper, tracing relentless circles around her clit until her thighs tightened around his ears and her climax broke over her with a sharp, gasping cry. She sank her fingers into his hair, holding him against her as she rode out the waves, her body pulsing against his mouth. After a moment, he crawled up her body, his erection pressing insistently against her thigh, and she reached between them to guide him inside with a single, smooth stroke. “The territory is claimed,” she whispered, her voice ragged, as he began to move within her, each thrust a slow, deep answer to the morning’s confined silence. The rain’s rhythm finally matched their own, a steady, syncopated beat against the dome as they moved together, wordlessly mapping a new kind of freedom.

The rain softened to a whisper as their breathing slowed, Pakal’s forehead resting against Nala’s collarbone. “The cage is still there when we finish,” he muttered, his voice thick and low against her damp skin. She traced the ridge of his healing shoulder, her fingers light over the scabbed puncture. “Then we finish again,” she said, her lips brushing his temple, “until the cage is just another part of the map.”

He entered her again, this time with a slow, deep push that made her gasp. “Every thrust charts a new line,” he whispered, his voice ragged as he set a grinding rhythm. She met him move for move, her heels digging into the small of his back, the wet, filthy sounds of their fucking filling the pod. Their breathing shattered into shared, frantic pants, the world narrowing to the burning friction and the impending snap. They orgasmed together in a violent, clutching convergence, her cunt milking his cock through each pulsing jet as his groan died against her lips.
