Lust in space!

Automaton engineers Clara Wheeler and Edmund Blake, groundbreaking developers of the first robot program, the Lovelace Protocols, are sent by Queen Victoria to the moon on a mission of vital importance to the Empire. They are to help Mon Ilson, the Lunarian Emperor of Space, conduct experiments on their bedroom automatons: Jack and Jill.

There is a darker aspect to the experiments. Spiritualist Cordelia Warrington, her automaton lover Adam, and Harry Kincaid of the Home Office are there to do the unthinkable: transfer a human soul into an automaton’s body.

Supervised by the beautiful Lunarians Pamela Fyfe and Burton Sobel, the group pass the three days of the journey with card games, dancing, and a wild weightless orgy. To her horror, Clara discovers that her machines have more than sex actuating their cogs and pistons. Death is also on the program.

EXCERPT

 

Clara Wheeler, Automaton Engineer

1868 — A Royal Command

Edmund says composing riddles is childish, but I find them to be so much fun. Even while working.

Knowledge, he has, But never ideas.

Skills, he has, But never control.

No children has he, Nor can ever be.

Dependent souls has he, But master he can never be.

What is he?

“Slower,” I commanded.

JN32’s response was sluggish.

“Stop.”

“I saw,” Edmund muttered, and took his trusty turnscrew to JN32’s exposed innards.

I gave my aching thighs a stretch before resting my ankles on JN32’s broad shoulders. The automaton had not yet been given a face, so I was looking at the brass framework from which distinctly inhuman oculi stared down at me with mechanical indifference.

“Hurry up. I’m getting cold.”

“Just a jiffy.”

The certification room never seemed to be at the right temperature. One would think being rogered for two hours without pause ought to have raised my body temperature enough to boil water, and that may have been true in the first thirty minutes where I usually achieved several climaxes. But when it came time to make final adjustments, my level of passion had declined markedly. So far JN32 had performed to a standard which, by human standards, was spectacular.

Edmund began to whistle a music hall tune he’d picked up during his last weekend pass. He had been deliberately torturing me with “Champagne Charlie” ever since.

“This does not qualify as a jiffy,” I complained.

“Nearly there.” He finally stepped back and gave me that quirky smile of his. “When you’re ready.”

“Resume,” I commanded, and JN32 began moving his hips. Slowly at first, following the appropriate Lovelace Protocol, one of several thousand which governed all the behaviours the automaton could express. This particular set ensured that the pace and magnitude of his strokes built up gently so as not to injure the customer with a sudden assault. A half minute later when he’d concluded the sequence of graduated steps, I commanded him to go faster. His response was also to specifications, and his thrusts accelerated. Automaton cocks, if not restrained, are like the pistons of a locomotive, and the resulting friction could be discomforting and downright dangerous.

“Lubricate.”

The rim of JN32’s cockhead immediately released a measured amount of specially blended synthetic oils that matched the average viscosity of vaginal fluid, and I felt the improvement almost at once.

“Again.”

“What?” Edmund asked, looking at me over the top of his notebook.

“I was just getting a little dry,” I replied.

He raised a quizzical orange eyebrow. “That’s not like you.”

I returned what he unkindly termed my Medusa glower. “Faster, JN32.”

I was rewarded with an immediate quickening. My body shook with each thrust so that my breasts jiggled and swayed. Now came the test of Edmund’s adjustment.

“Slower.”

This time JN32’s response was immediate, and the protocol smoothly reduced stroke speed by a quarter, then a half.

“Faster.”

JN32 complied.

“Slower.”

“That’s good,” Edmund muttered. “No lag that I could see.”

“Nor I,” I responded between gasps. A pleasant pair of climaxes had surprised me.

“He found the spot, did he?” Edmund quipped.

Another series of small climaxes overtook me. “Never… you… mind…” I replied as waves of pleasure pulsed through my body, radiating from quim to chest in gusts of white-hot flame. “Stop.”

“What’s wrong?”

“I just need a moment.”

Edmund’s gaze travelled from my eyes to my heaving breasts and to my quivering belly to where my body joined with JN32’s. My gaze dropped to the decided bulge in Edmund’s trousers. I pushed away the readily evoked images of his thick ten inches ploughing the artificial sheath of a female automaton. After a few moments I had collected myself enough to resume the test.

I took JN32 through the advanced routine where his cock would vibrate at variable speeds sequentially from the head down to the base of his shaft. Then with the “wiggle” command the top half of his shaft moved up and down and then side to side as his cock moved inside me.

This is my favourite part of the test, one which gave me exquisite pleasure, particularly on the outstroke where the movement stimulated my swollen nub. I must admit it made me squirm every time. I peeked through my eyelashes to note that Edmund had seen my response. The bulge had doubled in size. Served him right for inflicting me with one of Charlie’s song lines: “Come and join me in a spree.”

Excerpt

Selena Whiteheart

1867 — A Vixen in the Mist

 

I am a duplicitous witch.

Like Janus, the mythological god of beginnings and endings, I present
different faces to the world. I began as Marjorie Fletcher, a naïve
country virgin murdered for my body by hideous goblins. My homeless soul
found refuge in the mind of Cressida Troy, with whom I fell in love.
Inevitably I also lost my heart to her fiancé, Jacob McCleary, and I
experienced lovemaking for the first time through Cressida. Now, as Selena
Whiteheart, human agent of Mon Ilson, the goblin king and self-styled
Emperor of Space, and owner of the empire’s greatest airborne gambling
and bawdy house, I love the handsome and brave Captain Kit Colby.

I stood at my fireplace staring at the likenesses of Jacob and Kit inside a
gold locket. I’d drawn both myself, and think I captured their
essential differences rather well. Jacob, the former schoolteacher, whose
intelligent gaze signified his thoughtful and considerate nature both in and
out of bed, had given me my first experience of lovemaking, albeit
vicariously. He was now estranged from Cressida Troy after the murder of
Fleur Cumberland, which I had orchestrated. Kit, on the other hand, was a
lusty warrior, a decorated hero of the savage air war against Prussia and
the Hungarian Empire. As befitting his martial nature, Kit was both forceful
and deliberate in his lovemaking.

I was lost for a few moments in a warm memory of passionate kisses,
entwined tongues, probing fingers and hard, thrusting cocks before a wave of
fear coursed through me. Tears threatened to flow as I traced their
images.

I was not alone in my office. I was dimly aware of the earnest little man
jabbering about an invention of his. I didn’t care about Mr. Frasier.
I was immersed in a sea of despair, and the peril my charade placed not just
Jacob and Kit in, but me also.

Both Jacob and Kit were captives of Lady Neva Talbot-Rhys, a powerful witch
hell-bent on killing Queen Victoria. Lady Neva held the Queen responsible
for her lover’s death during England’s devastating military
reprisal against Prussia. I understood her wanting revenge. I felt the same
about her.

I had to get them back. Lady Neva was a merciless malevolent maniac,
capable of wholesale slaughter — I’d witnessed that firsthand. My
heart chilled at the thought of what horrors Jacob and Kit were suffering at
her evil hands.

I wanted desperately to believe they still lived. Why else would Lady Neva
kidnap them but to use them for some nefarious purpose?

Jacob had been sent by Mon Ilson to add weight to his envoy Nancy
Lea’s mission to arrange a demonstration of his ultimate weapon. Lady
Neva had stumbled upon Jacob during her search for Kit, and being a skilled
mind reader, she would have instantly known Jacob’s value. That would
have been a surprise to her, no doubt. But she was not one to miss an
opportunity to cause the Queen even greater problems. She had intended to
kidnap Nancy Lea as well, but fortunately she had escaped. I believed Lady
Neva had probably gone to Europe to sell Jacob’s knowledge to one of
Britain’s host of enemies. If that was the case, then Mon
Ilson’s carefully laid plans could be wrecked and chaos would ensue,
resulting in the deaths of millions. Frustratingly, our overseas agents had
not detected any sign of Lady Neva. She had disappeared like a vixen in the
mist.

I shuddered and took in a ragged breath of despair at what she would do to
Kit. Unlike Jacob, who had political value, poor Kit she could torture at
her leisure. Kit had become the object of her revenge after thwarting her
plan to use the Prince of Wales to kill the Queen.

For the time being, as Selena Whiteheart, I do the bidding of the goblin
king, the most powerful witch in history. For the moment our goals aligned.
He too wanted Lady Neva found, for her determination to kill Queen Victoria
threatened to derail his own plans of conquest.

My service to Mon Ilson requires a significant amount of time and energy,
for I must hide my true intentions from him by burying them deep within my
consciousness. I hate Mon Ilson. His goblins had murdered me, and then
stolen my body from the grave. While I obeyed his commands, I secretly
supported his overthrow by Cressida Troy, now his empress, another human
with another name: Nil Ilson.

Cressida had saved my soul. Or rather my nascent magical abilities had led
me to her, and her mind became my temporary safe haven. Then my magical
powers were like a seed, waiting for water and heat. Unwittingly Mon Ilson
supplied those himself, for when he read Cressida’s mind, he had
detected me and recognised my potential as a servant. Like Pandora he opened
the box of magic and let me absorb as much as I could hold.

To regain my body, I had enchanted both Cressida and Mon Ilson into
believing they loved each other and convinced her to prove her loyalty to
him so he would return my soul to my body. As my puppet, Cressida killed the
most powerful human witch, Fleur Cumberland. Mon Ilson repaid me by
returning my soul to my body and sending me to Earth to prepare the way for
his conquest. I had confessed my perfidy to Cressida, hoping she would work
with me to resist him. Cressida married Mon Ilson, and adopted the name Nil
Ilson, and the title Empress of Space.

Mon Ilson’s plan to overthrow the British Empire required the
co-opting of Queen Victoria. He meant to use the vast infrastructure of her
empire to take over the world with hardly a fight. So, for the time being
I’d be his enthusiastic cat’s paw until I could help Nil Ilson,
Cressida, defeat him.

But first I have to find Jacob and Kit.

“Ahem. Er. Miss Whiteheart?”

The clearing throat and hesitant voice reminded me of Mr. Frasier’s
presence. I closed the locket and turned to face the untidily dressed,
red-haired little man. Before I’d lost myself in my own thoughts,
he’d been enthusiastically engaged in a technical monologue about his
new invention.

“I’m so sorry,” I said, returning the locket to my bosom.
“Pray continue.”

He cleared his throat again, and after taking a deep breath began to list
the benefits of his new gadget, a tamperproof roulette wheel.

“It will kill any accusation of fraudulence,” he had
begun.

As if the honesty of my tables had ever been in question. The idea that I
would be accused of cheating was insulting, but I continued to listen with
feigned interest.

His name was David Frasier, a middle-aged inventor and factory owner from
Edinburgh. He’d been introduced to me by Special Branch agent and my
latest lover, Harry Kincaid. After making the introductions, Harry had
excused himself, saying he had to send a message to his club.

That was a lie. The murky shade of Harry’s aura had given him away. I
knew he was listening at the door. He’d asked me to be nice to Frasier
as he was trying to recruit him as a spy. He visited the continent often,
doing business with some prominent politicians and industrialists. The
introduction to me would put Frasier in Harry’s debt.

It was for that reason I resigned myself to listen without objection to the
fellow’s insulting proposition.

Frasier stopped in mid-sentence. He had been enthusiastically describing
his contrivance, something to do with building a miniature mechanical
computational device invented by Charles Babbage, when his face had become
flushed, and beads of perspiration formed on his forehead. His hands started
to tremble, and his final words ended in a slur. His aura had, in an
instant, transformed into a seething pulsating muddy blob, the colours
bubbling through each other in a roiling mass. A moment before it had been
quite normal, nervous perhaps, and very excited, but that is not unusual in
men meeting me for the first time, and after all, he was trying to make a
sale. The transition had been so abrupt, so unnatural, I reached out to his
mind to see the cause. I sensed despair, and most of all, mind-numbing fear.
Hardly a coherent thought peeked through. The one that did was
unmistakable.

“Mr. Frasier, don’t do this!” I put a suppression spell
over him. “Whatever it is, I can help.”

Nancy Lea is the Lunarian envoy to Queen Victoria. She and Jacob McCleary
come to Earth with a deadly warning from Mon Ilson, the Emperor of Space. At
an isolated airfield in the midst of a raging storm, Nancy is cruelly
mistaken for the murderous Lady Neva Talbot-Rhys. Nancy is interrogated by
the Queen’s Agent, the witch Felicity Cressy. To keep her off guard,
Felicity employs an unorthodox strategy. She introduces the dashing Captain
Jaimee Dalgliesh to the alien in human form. His mission is to seduce Nancy,
but can he avoid being seduced in turn?

Goblin Girl continues the Cressida Troy saga in which an unprepared world
faces alien invasion. In a time where airships are commonplace, and
witchcraft plays a crucial role in Queen Victoria’s empire, Goblin Girl is a
steamy adventure in the strange but curiously familiar universe of what
could have been.

Nancy Lea

1867 A Goblin Girl Goes to Earth

 

It was a rough descent. Inside the capsule, Jacob and I were pressed
together in the contoured couch, hip to hip, and shoulder to shoulder. The
belts that held me securely in place as we were jostled about bit through my
one-piece flying costume and would surely leave bruises. We were riding a
human test vehicle which we had captured some time ago. Jacob had been the
pilot and had been our prisoner until he reluctantly agreed to be Mon
Ilson’s envoy. I was to carry my emperor’s voice to the
queen.

Jacob was wearing a leather flying cap and green filtered goggles and
looked quite amphibian as his gaze shifted from side to side. He was closely
monitoring the gauges and dials on the control panel and manipulated the
various levers that controlled the ship’s buoyancy. Occasionally he
would glance at me, and the visible part of his face split in a broad grin.
He was excited to be returning home.

By Mon Ilson’s magic, the churning storm camouflaged our arrival.
Barely two minutes before, we’d been released by the Lunarian airship
and were descending at a rapid rate toward the Lizard Peninsula on the
Cornish coast. Our ship, little more than a spherical steel ball barely ten
feet wide, bucked and swayed at the mercy of the tempest. I bit my lower
lip, imagining the gale that raged on the other side of the vessel’s
thin shell, just a few inches from my head.

Jacob was adjusting the controls to release helium gas from our envelope so
that we landed as close as we could to the designated airfield. Timing was
of the essence if we were not to be blown too far off course. A violent wind
gust rocked us, and I clutched Jacob’s arm.

“Chin up, Goblin Girl. We’ll be on solid ground
soon.”

The appellation took me back to the first occasion he called me by that
vile name. At the time I knew he’d intended it as an insult.
We’d been “fucking like ferrets” as he described our
frequent coupling, and I was panting frantically in the aftermath of a
thundering climax.

“Why do you call me that?” I had asked resentfully once my
breathing had calmed.

“Goblin Girl?” His smile as he chucked my chin was annoyingly
patronising. “My dear,” he began, his tone mocking. “I
know inside that pretty little human head is a leather-skinned goblin, like
those stone gargoyles perched high up on a cathedral wall. You have huge
yellow eyes, slimy slits for nostrils cut in a grey face as flat as an
anvil. Rows of pin-sharp teeth hide behind knife-edged lips. You have bony
shoulders, and muscled arms like knotted wood, so powerful you could snap a
human neck. Not to forget the pair of oily black wings like those of a
demonic bat, equipped with a half dozen razor-tipped talons, and ugly
gnarled feet! For God’s sake, don’t get me started on your
feet!”

I would be lying to pretend it hadn’t hurt, but his description of
our — yes, my — natural form was accurate. What cut deeper was that
he’d use those words to hurt me while his pearly seed dripped from my
very bruised and unmistakably human cunt. I had given him the most hateful
of glares and stuck out my tongue.

He laughed. “That’s the spirit! On occasion you act so human.
Sometimes I quite forget.”

“I don’t want you to forget.”

“Why do you say so?”

“I want you to love me for myself, my soul, not my outward form
whatever it takes.”

“Huh! Beauty is only skin deep as they say. Is that what you mean?
Are you sure you want to go down that thorny trail?”

My feelings were hurt, still an odd sensation, and I didn’t yet know
when to stop. “Perhaps.”

Jacob knitted his brow. “Why on Earth do you want me to love you?
Don’t answer that. I know you are just following orders and will say
anything to get inside my head.” His expression had changed, from mild
curiosity to utter contempt.

“I wonder you can bring yourself to lie with me if that is what you
believe.”

Jacob shrugged. “A man has urges. I can’t control the call, the
quickening of the blood, or deny the demanding reality of my hard cock. That
body you have stolen, killed for, I should say, would get a rise out of any
man — alive or dead! Your human covering is just an empty vessel, somewhere
to dump my seed.” He glared at me, his eyes as hard as flint, and I
saw the hatred behind them. Then they softened. “Ah, don’t do
that.”

He wiped the tear away with his thumb. The gentle action broke the dam, and
there followed a flood.

“Ah, my Goblin Girl… come here!” He held me close, his
heart thudding in his chest, his warm breath upon my cheek. “I’m
a beast too. There’s no denying it.”

Later, after he’d ploughed my furrow once again and jetted more seed
into my human cunt, he held me tight. “Why?” he asked after a
few moments.

“Why what?”

His gaze took in my quivering form. “All this. Why did you give up
your natural body for this human one? Marjorie was so in love with hers
she’d do anything to get it back, even murder and treason. Why are you
lot not attached to your form?”

He was referring to Marjorie, a nascent witch whose body had been taken
from its grave and later adopted. Her soul found sanctuary in Cressida
Troy’s mind until Mon Ilson enabled her to return to her body for
helping Cressida kill the human scientist, Fleur Cumberland. Now Marjorie
was our most powerful agent on Earth.

Jacob had thumped his naked chest. “My attachment to this weak and
breakable frame was so strong it allowed me to survive after my soul had
been wrenched away.” He took my chin between thumb and forefinger.
“You chose to do this,” he continued, forcing me to justify
myself. “Why?”

Why indeed? “I do not regret it.”

“I’ve noticed, and that’s what I don’t understand.
Have you all been mesmerised by Mon Ilson to deny your love of your natural
form?”

“I have not!”

“Then why? I want to understand. It’s no small thing to give up
your body, no matter how grotesque it is.”

“We do not see ourselves so,” I countered.

His brow furrowed with incomprehension. “Then why? You could fly, for
God’s sake!”

“It is hard to express. It is too easy to say, as many will, I did it
because Mon Ilson commanded it. Those words are just a public display of
loyalty. As wonderful achievements as our cities are, the selfish reason is
we are heartily sick of existing underground. We want to live under a wide
blue sky rather than a roof of stone, feel fragrant wind on our cheeks
rather than a sterile breeze from a fan, to bask in the summer sun and have
our faces tanned, impossible under cold artificial light. We want to swim in
the ocean and feel mud squish between our toes. We want to make love, to
feel a kiss and take pleasure in it, to quiver with a soft caress, and be
overwhelmed by the glorious sensations of making love.”

EXCERPT

Copyright ©2024 Mikala Ash

 

December 1865 — Earthbound

Making love in the absence of gravity is a pleasure experienced by few. In
this regard my beloved fiancé Jacob and I, and of course Marjorie,
made full use of the three-day journey from the moon. Whenever the mood to
clicket like a pair of foxes took us — as it often did — we’d strap
ourselves into our cocoon — the Lunarians’ term for the soft woollen
bag designed to keep slumbering space travellers from drifting about — and
had at it with unbridled enthusiasm.

We were not the only ones. The dozen or so “marionettes” — as
Jacob termed the human bodies possessed by the spirits of goblins — also
took every opportunity to experience the joy of sex. In their natural form,
the small leathery-winged creatures, which resembled the ugly statues of
gargoyles, were denied by their nervous systems the ability to derive
pleasure from copulation. For them, the act of coitus was simply a
procreational chore, and so the ecstasy of sexual intercourse that the human
body provided was to them as addictive as laudanum is to opium eaters.

Thus, the mid-section of the ship presented a scene straight from a
nightmare. Cocoons bolted to the metal wall jostled their neighbours as they
twisted and bucked like angry caterpillars. The contortions were accompanied
by a discordant symphony of grunts, groans, and ultimate cries of climactic
release.

I blush to recall that Jacob and I were no different. I was in seventh
heaven with his cock relentlessly sliding, piston-like, in and out of my
accommodating quim, causing my heart to gallop and my breathing to quicken
into ragged gasps. I wasn’t alone, of course. Marjorie was enjoying it
as well, albeit deep inside my head.

Oh, his cock is so very hard, she bellowed.

She didn’t have to tell me that. I could feel every inch of his rigid
shaft stretch my tight fleshly sheath. Having a ghost possess me had added a
new dimension to the constant monologue people conduct with themselves in
their heads. Marjorie knew my thoughts before I could even express them to
myself, and she had access to all my memories as well. The most amazing fact
of her residency in my mind was that she could “feel” everything
I did, from stubbing my toe to the ecstasy of sexual climax, and everything
in-between.

Marjorie could also massage my body from the inside, as it were,
stimulating my nipples and nub, and creating the sensations that Jacob would
make with lips, tongue, fingers, and cock. She was thoroughly enjoying her
demise, making liberal use of this ability, and wasn’t a passive
member of our unconventional ménage which united the living and the
dead.

I’m not dead, she would protest. Just misplaced, and very grateful I
found you.

Murdered while she was a virgin, Marjorie’s spirit had, for some
unknown reason, been irresistibly drawn to me, and had possessed my body to
alert Jacob and I that her corpse had been stolen from her grave.
Marjorie’s body was now possessed by a goblin who named herself
Esther. One of our goals once on Earth was to return Marjorie to her
rightful home. We were confident that I could perform the swap, as I had
successfully done the same for Jacob in the chamber of the dead on the
moon.

That Esther was writhing in ecstasy in the cocoon next to us, being
ploughed enthusiastically by her so-called husband Warrick, both angered and
intrigued her. He’s fucking her now, she said bitterly. I wonder what
his cock feels like.

“Ugh!” I groaned, as much in disgust on her behalf as from the
jolt of Jacob’s thrust. A half dozen followed, and my rising
excitement was reflected in the increasing cadence of my whimpers and
moans.

Jacob paused, his body tensed, but not from imminent climax.

“What is it?” I asked.

“Something’s changed. I’ll have a look.”

Now that we were not wholly engaged in pleasure, I noticed that the
previously muffled grunts and groans were no longer stifled, but clear as a
bell. I lifted Jacob’s arm so I could see out of our woollen shell.
The agitated caterpillars, not content to remain in their cocoons, had
erupted like butterflies from their chrysalides. With no gravity to keep
them to the floor they twisted and tumbled through the air until the space
became a mass of undulating human flesh. Jacob and I remained inside our
woollen bag. The thought of intimacy with stolen bodies repelled us.

I shuddered at the memory of fucking the king of the Lunarians, Mon Ilson,
and his concubine Gloria, but that had been in the cause of buying time and
favour till our escape. I had only suffered the act by imagining I was
making love to Jacob and Marjorie.

My memory of that awkward situation was suddenly interrupted by our cocoon
being ripped open, and before I could react, Jacob and I were separated by
gentle but insistent hands. In an instant Esther was kissing Jacob full on
the mouth.
