The hivemind is conquering for me?

Looking at the warrior I stated. "Cutie I want to give you a present so That if I ever see you again I will know it was you are you ok with that?" The warrior tapped her front legs fast which I took as I yes. "Ok then sweetie Ill it to you just let me know by screeching if it starts to hurt and i will stop."

While most would disagree that what I'm about to give this warrior is a gift, any hive bio-form would vehemently disagree. Raising my hand in front of me for extra flair, I watched as it began to glow hot. With a mixture of my Thermokinesis and Pyrokinesis I could heat up my hand while not burning it off.

I had not made this viable for combat yet, as past movements disrupt one or both of my abilities causing minor burns or dissipation.

The warrior was confused for a moment as the lower caste have a danger sense for fire since their bodies have low water % and can burn easily. That being said the warrior would die happy if her mate were to be the one to do it.

Once my hand was hot enough I slowly brought it to the warriors face. Its beady black eyes stared straight at mine in confusion and slowly I made contact with her forehead.

The chitin exo plate of the warrior began to burn leaving a not so pleasant smell in the air. The warrior did not budge thankfully as its head plate was detached from its nervous system so it could not feel the burn.

30 second later I removed my hand to check the results and was happy with what I found. My hand print was now printed deeply into its forehead as a brand.

With a bit of effort trying to send a mental image of what it looked like only to the warrior before me I managed and It jumped around In glee.

Unbeknownst to me, when I sent that image A trace amount of psionic energy began to catalyse the energy that was left behind in the brand leaving a pleasant surprise for Jewel in the near future.

The warrior was not fully sure how to express her gratitude other than her rather ungraceful jump dancing, so she followed example of the two primary mates by closing the distance between us and placed her flat maw against my cheek.

I let out a tooth smile at the gesture at it clearly did not understand what a kiss was fully but was flattered by the attempt. "Well aren't you the cutest murder machine ever, Thank you for that. Now come on lets find those sheets before Orchids mind races too much and my room turns into a pool." I joked as we walked ahead.

The place for 'Apollos daily necessities' was not to far away from my room and the warrior had me there in no time. I was going to go in and grab what I needed but the warrior charged in before me grabbing the folded sheet with her maw and carefully balancing it on the backs of her scythes. before walking back out.

I attempted to take them from the warrior and say thanks but It raised its scythes up to its thorax guarding the sheets.

I found the behaviour odd from the warrior but did feel the need to question it, "If it wants to carry my sheet back that is fine" I thought to myself and proceeded back to my room with my more than unique basket strutting behind me.

Upon entering my room Orchid finally snapped back to reality after thinking about the all the lecherous things she could do to-with Apollo in the upcoming weeks. She was going to attempt to compose herself for now as her mate said she was tired but when he was followed into the room by a warrior she paused in stupor.

"Orchid you ok?" I asked the rooted Orchid. There was no response I just shrugged my shoulders and yawned as I really needed some sleep. My hunch turned out to be correct as a patch of liquid was on my bed. stripping it off and replacing it with the fresh one I turned to the warrior who was directly behind me and gave it the 'used' sheets.

"Thanks for your help cutie, I'm going to get some sleep now take those to get cleaned." I said stripping down as I was too tired to put on any sleep clothes and hoped straight into bed.

I had not noticed in my tired state the warrior did not immediately leave and actually lingered on my form a moment before leaving, Meanwhile a stunned Orchid continued to stare at the warrior and then the door frame after it had left for hours after at what she had seen.

The first week of our journey went by incredibly fast, it went by quicker because I was sleeping 12 hour a day just for the fun of it to store up much needed rest. I was currently staring outside the window membrane into the cacophony of colours outside. 18 years and I still could not get over how enchanting they are.

Getting lost in my thoughts I did not hear an assailant closing in behind me until they had their arms wrapped around my waist.

"Ah Orchid your legs are working again thats good, They were still shaking when I left." I jested with an air of accomplishment. "Orchid is still a bit wobbly my love, but she wanted to come find you." She said pressing her head into my back.

Orchid had become extremely clingy since the first day we arrived on the ship. I have not mentioned anything or expressed concern or worry as I thoroughly enjoy having her close to me 25/8. The bond we have amplifies those feelings making us feel extreme comfortable pleasure just by being in proximity. Quite literally our past week has been as followed Romp like rabbits, cuddle, eat, train, sleep.

It was a nice change of pace from constantly being in my lab working on the next set of enhancements or augmentations.

As the pair of us were now looking out of the window membrane, we heard stepping coming from behind us. Turning my head back in a cursory glance which turned into a cheerful watch as I noticed who was moving. It was the warrior from a week ago, now easily recognisable from my hand branding, I smiled as I watched it go by.

Orchid on the other hand turned all cranky at the sight of the warrior. Last week after she saw the warrior she spent a while looking for its gene code to identify why it deserved the reward of becoming Apollos property with his mark. When she found the code deep within her memory she was surprised to find the warrior was one she lead way back when she was still a freethinker.

A scout warrior living for over 20 years was astonishingly impressive. It had probably returned back with her from Apollos planet and had re assigned multiple jobs on home world through convenience.

Delving deeper into the hives memory she found this warrior was also apart of the Ker'min invasion with Apollo as well, although on the opposite side of the planet. Orchid was cranky because although she felt jealous and wanted her Apollo all to herself, This warrior genuinely deserved her mates praise.

Feeling Orchids emotions going a mile a minute and making me queasy I gave her a tactical kiss to reset her brain and flirtingly toyed with her. "Is my Orchid jealous because I gave that cutie over there a brand?" I said while swapping our positions so my hands were wrapped around her and my head was on her shoulder.

Orchid nodded her head with a shudder as I licked her neck. "Well I could give you a brand here." I said squeezing her breast. "Or here" This time her ass. "Or maybe even down there." I feigned to reach down to her nether region before smacking her derriere extremely hard.

"Or you can feel pleased by the fact we have been mating non stop for a week and you could feel pride in being the one of only 2 hive members who have that privilege.

Maybe I should go and make a hole somewhere in that warrior and mate with that?" scolding Orchid was something I did not enjoy doing but if I give her too much lovin' in too short a time frame she does become extremely possessive and would pick on the lower castes for simply looking at me.

"Now come on lets go back to the room I feel hungry, and don't give me that look you are in punishment again."

Orchid was feeling sad, she had let her jealously boil over again and now she does not get and more mating time for the foreseeable future. When they arrived at Apollos room however Orchids emotion went from sad to unbridled anger at what she saw. "This Bitch!"

On the bed lay a woman, naked for Apollos enjoyment. "AH~ hello my love~ soooo good to see you~"
