The chaos that has been the Breen Expanse has put the flag ship of the King's Fleet on high alert. The Quasar Quest has been used to report Klingon activity both to the stations of the King's Fleet and to Starfleet Operations within the area. John has been in his glory because the Quest is important and busy.
The problem is long hours on the bridge have left him to busy to spend time with Commander Dawn Keystone. Dawn has been left to her duties but also to the DNA of her hybrid core. John was started to learn that Dawn had missed her shift on the bridge and went down to check on his lover. He opened the door of her quarters.
He saw Dawn sitting on the chesterfield. He saw the appearance of more burrow like features. She had a horse like hind quarters looking more like a centaur than a Starfleet officer. John knew why. He knew that without the hormones produce during sexual activity with a human, the other animals used by the freakish Dr. T'Waak of Vulcan would come to the forefront of her appearance.
John knew that this was his fault. He walked over and sat down next to her. She looked at him, "Why do you keep coming back?"
"Because I care for you.", John looked at his charge.
"I know that you don't like this part. It is so unnatural.", Dawn started to cry.
"Maybe we can get the hormones going without you having to engage a sexual activity with the horse like features.", Dawn looked at John. She slowly lowered her hands to expose her human upper body. John started to nibble on her nipples.
Dawn slowly opened his uniform pants and began to swallow her commanding officer. John was certainly enjoying that.
Just as they were about to get a whole lot more excited, Russia jumped on the comm, "Captain Warren, we have a problem. We have several Klingon guests."
The Andorian had ruined Dawn's road back. John left immediately for the bridge. Dawn was left there to her own devices.
John was in the Officer's Mess when Dawn came into the mess. Dawn was at least on two legs and not four. She had more donkey like features but at least her second set of legs had receded after their sexual contact brought forth some more human hormones. Unfortunately, her snout had bared the brunt of the reorganized DNA. She truly was a horse face.
She was embarrassed. She did not sit with John instead ordering a vegetable platter and sitting alone. John walked over and sat with his executive officer.
"You don't have to sit here. I will use the holo deck to create a human partner. I will try to get enough human hormones circulating to force the human DNA back to the forefront. Once that is complete, I will return to regular duties.", Dawn announced very professionally.
John looked at her, "This is part of who you are, Commander Keystone. I have come to love you over the last six years. It means I have to love you even this you."
John extended his hand, "I don't think you need to go to a holo deck to get exposure to a human."
Dawn looked at John, "Are you sure?"
Dawn knew that John did not like that she was not a fully human Earthling. He had to struggle with his own history. He had to deal with Peter and Rhythm. He has had to deal with Paul and Franklin. He had to deal with all that and now he had to deal with his unnatural lover.
Dawn undressed and bent over the table waiting for John. John undressed and went to help his first officer.
Things are tough right now for everyone in the King's Fleet. The cold has come back to the surface. The Breen are advancing. The Klingons are rebuilding. The ground war is very real. Sometimes its the relationships between these people that makes this all bearable
