Chapter 1

The evening was perfect. The full moon shining across the lake cast a golden trail across the water making it a perfect evening for romance. Eric held Sheila in his arms as they exchanged kisses, both becoming more excited with each kiss. He wondered if they had been kissing long enough and what would happen if he caressed the side of one of her breasts. It was their fourth date, and he hoped tonight was the night; they would go all the way ... they would made love.

He continued kissing her as he slowly moved his hand to cradle the edge of one of her breasts. Sheila responded with a sigh and by kissing him with even more passion as she tried to show him she wanted more. Her lips opened and her tongue searched for his. While their tongues caressed, Eric moved his hand until he was holding a bra covered breast in his palm. It felt good and he felt her nipple growing hard from his touch. He rubbed his palm harder across the top of her nipple and she moaned.

When Shelia pulled back, Eric thought he had moved too fast. Instead, Shila pulled her sweater over her head, tossed it over to the back seat and reached behind her body to unfasten her bra. When it was unhooked, Eric lifted her bra from her body, gazing at her lovely full breasts in the moonlight. Eric thought her breasts were perfect. Round and full, topped with hard nipples protruding from her arousal. He tossed her bra on top of her sweater and leaned forward taking one of her hard nipples between his lips and started to suck on it.

Suddenly the inside of his car lit up. The inside now looked like high noon rather than approaching midnight. He turned his head to look out the windshield but was blinded by the bright light shining in front of the car.

Eric opened his door and got out of the car to see what was producing such a bright light. He heard Sheila say something and then the light was gone and Eric realized they were now in a new place. He looked around the new room having no idea where they were. He heard a sound behind him, he turned, and Shelia was standing there holding her breasts in her hands to hide them. He stepped to her and wrapped his arms around her. “I’m scared,” she told him. He understood what she meant. How did they end up in this new place without either of their knowledge? Eric has no idea.

He heard a gentle, deep, soft male voice in his head, “Please do not be frightened. We mean you no harm.” He thought to himself, “How is this possible? How can I hear them?”

Eric heard Shelia’s voice in his head, “I’m so scared. What is happening?”

“Do you realize I hear you in my head, but I do not hear your voice.”

She spoke aloud, “What is going on? I can hear your thoughts. How come?” Eric heard her mention she didn’t feel comfortable being half naked and he removed his shirt and put it over her. “How did he know I didn’t like being half naked?” She thought.

Eric thought “I don’t know why but I’m able to hear your thoughts. I knew you were uncomfortable without a shirt. And I do not know why we are able to hear each other’s thoughts.”

“I don’t know if I like this. I gotta be careful what I think.” Sheila thought.

Again, the voice filled Erick’s mind, “You have nothing to fear. We will not hurt you. You were in the wrong place at the wrong time. We are supposed to meet another of our ships here tonight. Now we must decide what to do with you two.”

Sheila thought, “They are going to kill us.”

The gentle voice again filled their heads. “No! We promise we will not injure either of you. You are totally safe.”

“How come we can hear you and each other’s thoughts?” Eric wondered.

“Please let me explain.” The voice continued. “The problem is for us to be able to communicate with you we had to alter some of your brain patterns. We do not use speech as your people know it. We needed to be able to assure you that you have nothing to fear, so we needed to communicate. Right now, you only hear my thoughts, but you two can read each other’s minds as well.

“In order to assure both of you there was nothing to fear, we had to communicate with you. You two are my first encounter with your species and I accidentally opened too many pathways in your mind which now allows both of you to hear us as well as hear each other. I’m not usually the greeter, so the error was on my part. You are the first of your kind I, or any of my fellow crewmembers have interacted with, and now you can hear me and each other as well as anyone else of your kind. With that pathway open, and without the knowledge how to control it, you are not ready to be free yet.”

“Control? Like what do you mean?” Eric thought.

“Do you want Sheila to have free access to every one of your thoughts?”

Eric heard Sheila think, “How does he know my name?”

The voice responded, “We can completely read your minds, and we know everything about both of you. We know Eric is frustrated he was interrupted tonight, and we know that you were willing to make love with him.” Both had thoughts of protest regarding the amount of information this new entity was able to gather. “And this is what I mean. You cannot shield your thoughts yet. If Eric wants, he can read exactly what you expected this evening and Sheila is able to read his thoughts regarding tonight. Before we allow you both to leave, we need to teach you how to protect yourself from each other as well as to stop being bombarded with unwanted thoughts from others of your kind.

“Right now, if you were among other people, you would hear every one of their thoughts at the same time. There is a good chance that both of you might harm yourself trying to stop the multitude of thoughts crowding in. We cannot allow that. We can teach you how to shut your mind off to other people’s thoughts and we can teach you how to focus on just one person’s thoughts. We can also teach you how to steer other people’s thoughts. I apologize, there is no way for us to close that part of your mind now that it is open. We know this is one of the biggest dangers we face when we try and interact with your species.”

Eric thought, “I wonder what they look like.” He heard Shelia immediately respond, “So do I.”

The voice replied, “You are not ready to see us in our true form. I’m going to plant a thought regarding what We think you want us to look like.” The two of them looked at each other as they experienced the thought of a trim, attractive older male dressed in a white robe with shoulder length white hair and a well-trimmed beard.

Sheila thought, “Nice. Great image.”

The voice chuckled, “I’m pleased you approve.”

Eric heard Sheila ask, “How long are we gonna to be here? How long will it take you to teach us to control our thoughts?”

“It won’t matter how long it takes. When you’re ready, you’ll be returned to your car exactly as we found you and in the same time frame. At first you will not be aware any time has passed. Slowly you’ll remember what happened here with us, but you will have learned to protect yourself. You’ll be able to read each other’s thoughts and read other people’s as well, if you desire. You will also find you’ll be able to control other people’s thoughts.

“You must not abuse that ability. We’ll watch you for a while and if we feel you can be trusted with this ability, we will leave you in peace. But your gift can be abused. See that you do not take advantage.”

Eric asked, “When do we start learning control?”

The voice explained, “For now, you will be shown to a place to sleep. When you wake, your training will start.” The two of them saw a door appear at the end of the room. “Go through the doorway and there is a sleeping chamber. Good night.”

Eric took Shela’s hand, and they headed towards the open door. Once they passed through the doorway, they heard a soft noise and when they looked, the doorway was gone, now it was just a solid wall. The room was large and very comfortable, and in the middle was an enormous bed on a raised platform. Thick carpeting covered the floor, and soft lighting filled the room.

Both heard the voice, “I’ll leave you now. We will not listen to your conversations. If you wish to be intimate with each other, you may do so in complete privacy. Before I return, a bell will sound, like this,” Both heard a soft bell ring. “I will always notify you when I’m present. For now, I’m sorry but the two of you will have no privacy from each other. That will have to be learned.”

Neither could explain what they felt, but both were aware the individual had left them. “I wonder what we should call him?” Shelia thought.

“Let’s ask him in the morning. I’m tired.”

Neither had spoken a word but they’d heard the other’s thoughts. Eric noticed a new doorway at the end of the room and beyond it he could see a normal toilet and a countertop. Eric needed to pee, but he was also aware Sheila needed to use the toilet. He thought, “Go ahead and go first. I’ll wait.”

Shelia went into the room and shut the door. As she sat down on the toilet, she realized Eric was there in her head. He felt her need to pee and the relief she felt when she was done. She thought, “You might as well come in here. It doesn’t seem to matter if we shut the door or not, we feel and know everything the other person is doing.” Sheila was done and Eric stepped up to the toilet and started to pee. He heard Sheila’s thought, “Interesting.” They both laughed.

Both were naked when they got into bed and as they lay there, they explored the other person’s thoughts. Sheila recognized Eric’s sexual desire, and she found his sexy thoughts were making her horny too. When he reached for her, she took him in her arms, but before they could proceed to consummate their lust, they were so tired they fell asleep.

The next morning, they awoke to a sound, but didn’t realize it was the bell. As the two of them woke, they were still feeling a desire for each other and Eric gently pushed Shelia onto her back and started kissing her tummy. He was aware of her desire to have oral sex, and the closer his kisses came to her vaginal lips, the more he felt her excitement grow. He spread her lips with his tongue, and he felt her surge of need. The feeling of her desire inflamed him, and she felt his arousal as well.

Eric proceeded to lick the valley between her lips, moving slowly up towards her clit. He felt her growing desire in his mind, and he could read how much she wanted him to take her bud between his lips and suck on it. When he finally drew it between his teeth and started to flick the tip with his tongue, he felt her climax start. It was like an open book for him. He knew exactly what she wanted and how she wanted it. All Shelia had to do was to have the thought, and he would do it instantly. Her climax continued and she repeatedly screamed his name. She also felt his arousal and his needs created by her climaxes.

He knew before she even started to push him away, she had had enough. Eric heard her thoughts, she wanted him to enter her, and he settled between her legs, placing her ankles on his shoulders. Resting his cock at her opening, with a gentle push he sipped into her. In her mind she could read how tight she felt to him as she surrounded his cock. She squeezed harder, and he knew she was squeezing tighter, and why, and he became even more excited. When he finally exploded inside of her, Shelia felt both his physical release and his mental release. The two caused a massive climax for her and her mind went black. Eric was concerned when he felt her faint. Slowly, she revived, to his relief. He heard her thoughts regarding they couldn’t do sex like that too often; she couldn’t stand it.

The two of them heard the bell again and realized that was what woke them up. They could hear the alien’s voice was with them again. Shelia asked the voice what they should call him. “You are male, aren’t you?” She asked.

The voice chuckled. “I am both. We can be either sex, whenever we please. I guess most of the time I’m what you’d consider to be male.”

“Were you here for our ... our love making?”

“Yes. I apologize. We rang the bell, but you must not have heard it. We admit we’re all curious and we helped nurture the desire you already felt in your minds. I hope you’re not too upset.” Both felt they were partly unhappy about being manipulated, but mostly were pleased and satisfied with the outcome.
