The Whore and the Captain: Part 1

*************************************





-- ROME A.D. 2370 --





"Over here, Jean-Luc, I have found an old sign."

Professor Vicelius was a distinguished elderly gentleman who wore

one of those big-brim hats that archaeologists love. He handed

over a broken piece of inscribed stone to Picard, who cleaned off

the dirt with a small brush.



"Yes," Picard said, examining the marble, "it does appear to be a

marker of some kind. You are the Latin expert, Professor, can you

translate the inscription?"



The Professor examined the piece closely, "It says Domus

Matrillae, The House of Matrilla. Interesting..."



The enterprise was in orbit around earth while several senior

officers attended training sessions run by Starfleet's Recreation

Department. Picard, very in character, chose an archaeology

seminar held in Rome. It was amazing to him that, after hundreds

of years of excavations in this eternal city, there were still

artifacts to be found. Professor Vicelius was an old friend as

well as an eminent classical archaeologist. Picard had found this

trip to be thoroughly relaxing and educational, so far.



"Follow me," Professor Vicelius beckoned, "I want to

show you something really unique. We are on the cutting edge of

archaeological technology."



Picard and Dr. Vicelius walked over the far side of the dig.

Two graduate students were operating a machine that resembled

a large phaser canon. Around the periphery of the area mechanical

hooks were moving in and out of the generated beam. It

appeared that objects were being pulled from nowhere.



"This instrument, Jean-Luc, is the first wormhole generator to be

used specifically for retrieving archaeological artifacts. We

actually pull objects out of space-time. Of course, this is still

experimental, but it is an wonderful feeling to hold an actual pot

instead of a potsherd."



Picard was both impressed and confused. "Doctor, how can you just

reach in and take things out of time? What if you grab hold of

something that shouldn’t be displaced?"



Dr. Vicelius shook his head, "Don't worry. We're not changing

space-time. We have a method of looking before we leap. See

those goggles? Go take a peek, you'll be astounded."



Picard walked over to a viewscope being used by a student. The

young man reluctantly gave up his position to the Captain, who

after a few seconds exclaimed, "Incredible, I wonder..."



He never finished his sentence. A huge flash occurred by

the wormhole generator. The smoke cleared quickly, but Picard had

disappeared.





-- ROME A.D. 31 --





"Quis est, Matrilla?"

<Who is it, Matrilla?>



"Nescio, Miryam. Est vir calvus, inustitate vestitus."

<I don’t know, Miryam. He’s a bald man in

strange clothes.>



"Estne mortuus?"

<Is he dead?>



"Non credo."

<I don't think so.>



Matrilla and Miryam both poked at Picard with their fingers trying

to get a reaction. Matrilla was the older of the two; a corpulent

matron with a belly so pendulous that her dirty blue stola was

"decincta" <unbelted> as if she were pregnant. Miryam, in sharp

contrast, was a lovely young woman with dark Mediterranean

coloring. Her brown eyes gleamed with fire and a wisdom far

beyond her years. She also was the most popular whore in

Matrilla’s brothel.



Miryam bent close to Picard and shook his head, hoping to wake

him. She was successful. Picard started coughing and moaning,

and his eyes fluttered. Matrilla was relieved that she would not

have to explain a strange dead man to the authorities. Any

suspicious activity might cause her brothel license to be revoked.

She called in one of the eunuchs to help move Picard to a couch.



Picard had regained some consciousness. His vision was blurry and

he was extremely weak, but he was aware of being carried from the

floor to some kind of bed or couch. He only vaguely remembered

where he had been before everything went blank. Faint voices were

speaking a language that was unintelligible to him, yet somehow

familiar. As more of his vision came back, he saw he was in a

small room with several pieces of exotic furniture and walls

painted with large friezes. He recognized it as Roman and

wondered if this was an archaeologist’s dream, or more likely,

nightmare.



A lovely young woman bent over him. She looked Middle-Eastern

but was speaking a language that he finally recognized to be

Latin.



"Tibine est nomen? tuum nomen?" <What is your name?>



His first instinct was to reach for the tricorder but he stopped

himself. A special version of the universal translator that

contained all known earth languages, past and present, had been

downloaded into it. This was often used by archaeologists during

excavations. He was reluctant to activate it while this woman was

present but the question being asked was clear, especially to a

native speaker of a romance language. Given the situation,

"Picard" seemed a quite adequate response.



"Peeecaaaduh," the young woman repeated, imitating what to her was

a very odd sounding name.



Picard passed out again and the two women decided it would be best

to remove his unusual clothing. He was also carrying some unique

objects that they could not identify. Since they were professional

prostitutes, not thieves, they gently undressed him and placed his

belongings on another couch.



Matrilla gestured to Miryam that they should quietly leave the

room. The man needed to recover in peace.



Outside the room Matrilla instructed Miryam,

"Until I decide what to do with this stranger, Miryam, I am making

it your job to take good care of him. And don’t annoy him with

questions. He is obviously someone of wealth and nobility. Did

you notice his hands, his skin, his teeth..."



"His big cock," Miryam interjected, grinning mischievously and

holding up two hands to mark the length.



"Miryam, you really are a wanton she-wolf."



"Of course, Matrilla," Miryam answered back saucily, "why else

would I be here in this she-wolf den? But I love my work, and it

will be my pleasure to take care of Picard. hahahahaha." Miryam

laughed even louder at the old woman’s feigned outrage.



Matrilla sometimes thought that Miryam enjoyed her work too much.

If she didn't know that Miryam was a former Judean slave, Matrilla

would have suspected her of being one of those rich Patrician

women who worked the brothels in disguise to make up for a

impotent husband. She wondered how a pretty young woman like

Miryam could get such tremendous pleasure from fucking strange

men. "But," she thought to herself, "it keeps the clientele

coming back."



************



Picard woke up with an agonizing headache and feeling of nausea.

He slowly recalled what had happened, but hoped it would turn out

to be a huge holodeck joke that some member of his crew had

orchestrated.



"Computer, end program."



Nothing happened. Picard wondered if they had rigged the computer

not to respond to his voice. He was not appreciating the joke.



"Computer, this is Captain Jean-Luc Picard. End holodeck program

immediately."



Still nothing changed. Picard tried to stand up but waves of

dizziness caused him to sit down again. The realization was

settling in that the holodeck was not responsible for his

predicament.



As he slowly regained his stability, he noticed that he was

completely naked. This panicked him, not so much from modesty,

but because his comm badge and tricorder were now gone along with

his pants and shirt. He tried to calm down, reasoning with

himself that the clothes were probably somewhere within the

chamber. He turned and saw his clothes and equipment neatly

placed on another couch in the corner of the room. As he walked

over to retrieve them he heard a voice from behind him.



"Picard, valesne maius?" <are you feeling better?>



He turned and saw the same young woman that had leaned over him

when he first woke up. She was standing in the doorway staring at

him and babbling away in Latin. He grabbed the comm badge with

his left hand and initialized the translator, leaving the

tricorder on the couch since he had no pockets or belt.



"Picard, didn't you hear me? Are you feeling better?"



She spoke to this naked man with a casualness that only a whore

could have. Naked men were an everyday occurrence for Miryam,

although this one was much better looking than most she had seen.

She hoped he would not make her wait long; she was already wet and

throbbing for him.



"Yes, thank you, I am much improved," he said in a voice that

betrayed his discomfort. He was awkwardly trying to get dressed

as fast as possible, a task made more difficult by the need to

keep hold of his comm badge.



Miryam walked over and interrupted his dressing, grabbing his

shirt out of his hands in a very matter-of-fact way.



"The britches and undergarments are all right. They only make you

look like a foreigner. But this small tunic will have to be

replaced. It is too unusual. You will draw unnecessary attention

to yourself. I have brought you something more suitable."



She threw his shirt in the corner and replaced it with a white

tunic and sash. Without being asked, she helped him slip it on,

letting her hands fondle and caress him in the process. Picard

saw the wisdom in this maneuver and made no attempt to argue with

her. He was a little surprised at the way she touched him, but

she had given him good advice and he attributed her actions to

cultural differences. He still did not know where he was or who

this woman was, but he decided to be cautious and wait a bit

before interrogating anyone.



"Thank you. I concur completely with your observations. I insist,

though, on wearing this pin and carrying this instrument."



She nodded approval without questioning and he placed the comm

badge on the tunic and the tricorder in the belt. Picard took a

deep breath and tried to relax.



"And by the way," he said, "you have the advantage. You know my

name; I don’t know yours."



She smiled warmly at him, "They call me Miryam."



**********



Miryam arranged for a discreet male slave to attend to the

stranger's personal needs and help him clean up. Later Otho,

Picard's new 'valet', led him into a kitchen area where Miryam was

waiting with some food. As he and Miryam sat together eating

bread and fruit, Picard saw this as an opportunity to get some

answers. He could guess where he was, but had no clue WHEN he

was. He considered for a moment how best to construct his

question so as not to alarm Miryam or give her too much

information. Disturbances in time were serious; he had to be

careful not to reveal anything concerning future events.

It seemed best to feign partial amnesia resulting from a pretended

head wound; that way he could avoid answering questions. Not that

anyone was asking.



"Miryam, a blow to my head has made me forget some things. Can

you tell me where I am? How did I get here?"



"We found you unconscious in that other room. I don't know how you

got there. I was hoping you would tell me."



"You say 'WE'? Who else knows about me?"



"Well, WE all know about you now," she said as she gave him an

affectionate pat on the knee, "but it was Matrilla and I who found

you. Matrilla is the old woman who runs this brothel and watches

over the girls here."



Picard couldn’t resist letting a small grin slip out. A brothel

explained the many strange things about this place. Actually, he

thought he was very lucky to have been found unconscious in a

brothel, rather than inside a prison or the middle of a market-

place. At least he would be fairly unnoticed here.



"I am assuming that this is Rome. At least that's where I was

before I fainted. Unfortunately, I don't remember exactly where I

lived or much about my life prior to the accident."



"Yes, Picard," she said shaking her head at his misfortune, "you

are still in Rome, just south of the Forum along the main road."



Picard thought for a moment how best to ask the year. This was

not going to be easy.



"Miryam, forgive this ridiculous question, but I must know -- who

is in charge of the city now?"



"Who is in charge? That is a strange question, Picard. I'm not

even sure what you mean. But if that's your way of asking who is

the Emperor, I will tell you it is still that monster Tiberius.

Thank God he has chosen to live in Capri, far away from here. You

must have hit your head very hard if you were able to forget

Tiberius!"



She reached out and stroked his leg with two fingers; it was the

act of a person offering comfort. Picard responded to the

friendship she was offering. He briefly returned her touch by

placing a hand on her shoulder, somewhat embarrassed by this

almost involuntary gesture. That brief exchange lasted only a few

seconds, interrupted by Otho bringing in some wine.



Picard had gotten the answers he needed. He also had a gut feeling

that this woman Miryam was quite intelligent and perceptive, and

he would have to be very careful. The irony of the situation was

not lost on him. As an amateur archaeologist he should be enjoying

every second of being here, but he was not thrilled about the

possibility of never getting home.



They sat silently - eating, relaxing, and observing each other.

Miryam was as perceptive as Picard had feared. She wondered if he

really expected she would not notice that his lips were speaking a

different language than her ears were hearing. She had deduced

almost immediately that the instrument on his belt, that he was so

protective of, was the cause of this strange phenomenon. Like

most intelligent people living in the Roman world, she relied less

on superstition and more on pragmatic reasoning. To her, Picard

was not a sorcerer or a god but someone who possessed an

incredible bag of tricks.



She watched him carefully as they sat without talking.

This Picard certainly was a very unusual man, but being a

prostitute in Rome had introduced her to many bizarre people and

bizarre behaviors. The Emperor Tiberius had invented such

perverted practices that the common people complained there were

no words in Latin to describe them. Miryam knew instinctively,

however, that Picard was not one of those twisted, dangerous

people that roamed the city streets. She sensed his caring and

intelligence.



While Miryam was mentally checking him over, Picard was busy

mulling over in his mind how to begin searching for a way home.

The wormhole that had transported him here was apparently no

longer in that small room and might have moved entirely out of the

building.



He knew he would have to leave Matrilla's eventually to get some

answers, and was less than comfortable about his tricorder hanging

in plain site.



Picard broke the brief silence. "I need something to wear over

this tunic that will cover my equipment. It is very valuable and

might attract thieves."



Responding to that comment, Miryam startled Picard by suddenly

jumping at him, knocking him to the floor. He was not prepared for

resistance as she straddled him and laughed in his face. It was

an affectionate maneuver, though, and Picard smiled up at her.



In the midst of her giggling she managed a few sentences.

"Picard, you are a moron! What barbarian land do you come from -

where people are such idiots? Do you think I haven’t noticed that

this object you carry speaks Latin for you!"



She grabbed the tricorder out of his belt and waved it over his

head, teasing him to get it back.



"Does it speak Hebrew also?" she asked playfully, holding the

tricorder up to her mouth.

"shalom, hashem shelee Miryam...".



She was thoroughly enjoying herself. It was not often she got to

see or do anything as intriguing as what this strange man offered.



"And what are these little lights inside? And what kind of

material is the casing made of?"



Picard just stared at her in total shock.



"Don’t worry," she said pinching his cheek and returning the

tricorder to his belt, "I am not interested in your little toy.

I won’t tell anyone about it. You have nothing to fear from me."



Before he could utter a word, she bent down and kissed him

forcefully, pushing her tongue into his mouth.



His body tensed up as if in resistance; the swiftness

of her move causing him to involuntary try to push her off.

But Miryam was a professional and she had no intention of

letting him get away. As much as she enjoyed her customers,

she had rarely been as aroused as she was at that moment.

Picard was a very appealing man, and in comparison to what

Miryam was accustomed to, he was an Adonis.

Picard had no idea what to do. He was not often in the

position of being attacked by a woman. Given his

strength against hers, he could easily have flung her

across half the room, but something in him surrendered

and the battle was over. Miryam felt his body give

itself over to her and she relaxed her grip on him. She

was the victor and he was the booty. Staying on top of

him, she slowly worked her mouth down his clothed body, kissing

and caressing every inch between his lips and his swelling

penis. She wanted this first time to be for him alone; she

wanted to make him moan and scream in pleasure.

She removed the tricorder from the sash and placed

it close by so it would still function. Then, untying the belt,

she hungrily reached down his pants.



"Oh Picard, You are a man among men."

She tried to get the pants off, or at least pushed all the way

down, but something about their construction baffled her.

Eventually she was able to get them down just far enough

to free up the object of her lust. His penis was only half-erect

and Miryam pushed back the foreskin that was partially covering

the tip. After all these years in Rome, she still had difficulty

facing an uncircumcised man. But circumcised or not, they all

were the same when saluting. Putting her lips over the first inch,

she pressed her tongue against the slit. In less than a minute

she had results; Picard's cock growing in length and thickness in

her mouth.

He was in a stupor; letting it all happen; wanting it to

happen. She had excited him beyond the point where he could

stop. The only sounds out of his mouth were soft moans. Miryam

let up her sucking for a moment to gaze on what she had

accomplished. Here was a magnificent shaft on a magnificent

man. She had to fight hard to keep herself from mounting it.

While she was momentarily preoccupied Picard attempted to flip

her over and thrust himself inside, but she forced him back down,

pressing his shoulders towards the floor.

"No, this time you do nothing. Let me pleasure you."

As soon as she was sure he was going to stay still she grabbed

hold of his penis with her left hand and returned it to her

mouth. Her right hand she put back down his pants to caress his

testicles. He had never been worked on by anyone so expert,

and the arousal was too intense to last long. In just a few

minutes he was spurting hot cum deep into her throat.

After the last drop was released, she moved up to kiss his lips

so he could taste his own fluids on her. She had conquered him.

**********



It was late morning the next day when Otho woke his master.

Picard got dressed and then told Otho he preferred to just wander

around by himself.



He was lazily observing the various items and aspects of the house

when he was heard what sounded to him like Miryam moaning.

No one else seemed the least bit concerned, and although he knew

better, Picard peeked into the room where the noise was coming

from.

What he saw, what he really didn't want to see, was Miryam with a

customer. He was a elderly man who was having a great deal of

difficulty maneuvering around her body. She was doing her best to

help him and ultimately the act was consummated. She nodded to

the man, he handed her two gold coins, and left happy. Miryam set

aside one coin for Matrilla and put one into her private hidden

box. She turned and saw Picard.

Furious at him for watching, she ran up and slapped his face.

"Why are you spying on me? Didn't you ever learn manners?"

Picard knew her anger came more from humiliation than from

anything else. He was embarrassed at being caught. He was also

feeling new emotions - jealousy and disgust at what he had seen.

He wished somehow to free her from this life.

"Miryam, I'm sorry. I don't..."

She interrupted him, "What do you think I'm doing here? Do you

think this is a game? This is how I make a living. This is how I

bought my freedom. And this is how I will earn my escape. So

spare me any pity, please. I have a better plan for my life."

He was acting so dejected, she softened up and gave him an

affectionate caress. After the ridiculous wrestling match with

that last pathetic customer, she was in the mood for some good

sex.



"Come with me. Matrilla has a really nice bath. I’ll clean Gaius

the baker off me, and then I'll treat you to a soothing rub."

The bath was extremely elegant and seemed to Picard out of place

and out of character for the dwelling. There was a dressing room,

separate saunas for damp and dry heat, and warm and cold tubs.

The whole bath was heated by flues that channeled hot air through

the walls and under the floors. Matrilla had spared no expense.

Miryam saw that Otho had followed and signaled him to leave,

indicating that she would take care of his master herself. She

led Picard to the dressing room and took off his clothes.

"Leave your translator here. No one will touch it. You won't

need it anyway to understand what I'll be saying." She smiled

wickedly at him and, for the first time, he felt himself blush.

Without a bit of modesty she undressed herself as well and then

led him to the warm pool.

They were alone in the water. He began to unwind immediately,

soothed by the warmth. Miryam had a sponge which she used first on

herself to remove all traces of her last customer. She then began

to wash Picard. She cleaned every inch of him with the sponge and

then put it aside. He was so relaxed he was almost asleep.

Miryam turned her attention back to his body which she began to

massage with her hands, gently unkinking his neck and shoulders

and rubbing his arms and chest with enough pressure to get his

attention. Picard was waking up, noticing the heat not only from

the water, but from Miryam's own body. She had moved her rubbing

down to his penis and testicles while she wrapped one arm and one

leg around him. The water gave a certain buoyancy to their bodies

so she was able to easily press hard against him. She was very

aroused and was working on getting him to respond to her needs.

No words were exchanged between them as she leaned forward to kiss

him hard, still holding fast to his organs. The combination of

her ardor and her manipulation caused Picard's erection to swell

fully.



Still buoyed up by the water, she pressed up against his

hard penis, forcing it inside her.

"Oh yes," she thought, "this is what I have been waiting for

since the moment I first saw you. This is what I hungered

for. Fuck me, Picard. Fuck me hard."



The words were unspoken but the meaning was clear. He

floated her around so her back was against the side of the

pool and he began thrusting. The moans and cries of

pleasure from them both required no translation. He knew

what she wanted; he pushed in and out hard, continually,

without stopping, until she came convulsively. When he knew

she was finished it took only one more ejaculatory thrust

for him to join her.



**********

Later that afternoon Picard saw Miryam putting on a cape, as if

about to leave. He walked over to where she stood, hoping for an

invitation but not wanting to ask. He was about to go nuts from

being cooped up in that house.

She saw straight into his soul from the expression on his face.

“Maybe I should bring you with me today. You can’t stay locked in

Matrilla's house forever." She let out a little giggle, "and I

think Otho is getting sick of your face."

He smiled back at her, "You’re right. I do need to get out - to

walk around and try to remember." And to find the wormhole, he

reminded himself.

She gave him a cloak to cover the comm badge and the tricorder

and took him by the hand out through a side door. Picard was

instantly astounded. Besides the fact that he had not been in

actual daylight for so long, the sight of Rome was captivating.

As they walked along the narrow streets, he remarked to himself

how much it resembled pictures he had seen of the old cities of

Sicily and Naples. Picard forgot entirely about searching for

the wormhole and became engrossed in merely looking around,

marveling at everything. He listened to the strange sounds of

an ancient city, saw people in ancient attire, speaking the

many languages of a cosmopolitan area. They walked for quite

some distance - through narrow alleys lined with two and three

story buildings - to large open courtyards and markets. He was

transfixed.



At one point, Miryam nudged him with her elbow.

"Picard. You are staring like a stupid tourist. Is all of this

so unfamiliar to you?"

"Well, yes, actually I don’t remember anything of this part of

the city. Am I that conspicuous," he asked.

"You look like an imbecile," she replied, imitating his

expression, "If you’re not careful, your eyes will stay

permanently bugged out and your neck will crack."

At that moment an unkempt man stumbled out of a local shop and

noticed the couple. He was quite drunk and walked towards them

muttering to himself. Miryam was suddenly nervous, almost

ashamed; Picard guessed this was one of her customers, but

wasn’t sure what he should do.

"Hey, Miryam, how about a free one?" the man shouted. He

lifted his short toga and flapped his penis at her.

Miryam shouted back at him, "go home Septimus, you’ve had too

much wine!" She turned away red-faced. Because of her new

feelings for Picard, she found it difficult to have him see

this ugly part of her life.

"Come on Miryam, let me have a quickie."

The man walked closer, still holding his ugly shriveled cock.

Miryam sought refuge behind Picard. Ordinarily when things

like this happened, she would just run.

Septimus made the mistake of taking one step too close. Picard

grabbed him by the toga and threw him to the ground. The

wretch was in no condition to fight back and lay there staring

up at his attacker.

"If you ever speak that way to this lady again," Picard said to

him menacingly, "I will personally slit your filthy throat."

He put his arm around Miryam and walked her quickly away.

She was impressed and grateful. Chivalry was not a common

practice in Rome that year. She stopped their walk long enough

for a hug, a quick "thank you," and the promise of a longer

thank-you later.

***********



After traveling a little further they arrived in front of a

small villa in a quiet, more secluded part of the city.

"Here we are," she said with obvious pride, "this is my house."

Picard had not expected this. "You have a house? I mean, it’s

lovely, but I thought you lived at Matrilla's house."

"Oh Jupiter, No!" she said emphatically. "I could never live in

that slimepit. I need a safe haven for myself. men have been

generous to me and this is my reward. Come inside."

Her house was bright and cheery. The floor was decorated with

tile mosaics and the walls were colorfully painted. She

brought him to the center court and spread out a rug next to

the rain pool, placing out some napkins and cups.



"Sit here and relax," she said, "I'll be your harem girl and

bring some food. Let's see how you look as a desert chief." She

tried to wrap one of the napkins around his head like a turban

but gave up when he kept teasing her, reaching behind for her

buttocks.

"Forget it, your head looks better uncovered. I'll be right

back."

While she was gone, Picard thought about his situation. He had

been so distracted by Miryam that he had done nothing about

investigating a way back to his own time. He wondered if,

perhaps, he was avoiding getting back too quickly. Anyway, he

reasoned, the Enterprise crew was certainly hard at work trying

to find him with every bit of modern technology at their

disposal - maybe he should just do what Miryam suggested -

relax.

He had not behaved like this in a long time; not since he was a

young cadet at Starfleet Academy. He felt licentious and

driven by sex. It was wonderful. And the beauty of the

situation was that there was no Starfleet, no Enterprise, no

one to watch over his shoulder as he allowed himself to give in

to his most profligate desires. And right now what he desired

most was Miryam.

Miryam returned about a half hour later, balancing a large

round platter in one hand and a smaller plate in the other.

She placed the dishes down in front of him and joined him on

the rug.

"Sorry that took so long. Did you miss me?" Before he could

answer she gave him a hard kiss and squeezed his genitals, but

quickly released him.

Picard stared at the dishes and laughed. The large plate

contained a round flatbread with toppings, but the smaller one

held a cake in the shape of a cock and balls.

"Miryam, this is a interesting course selection. Where did the

cake come from?"

"Gaius the baker, my favorite customer, she said twisting up

her lips in a expression of disgust. "I've been helping him out

with his sexual problems and I suppose he thought I would enjoy

this little gift. Next time he shows up at Matrilla's I'm

going to send Otho in my place." She giggled and waved the

cake in front of Picard's face. "Want a bite?"

"I'll pass. What's on the large plate? That seems more

appetizing."

"Ah," she said enthusiastically, "this is a special treat from

Judea that has become popular in Rome. The matzo is a large

round unleavened bread. We spread olive oil on it and then

bake it with cheese and spices. It is delicious."

Picard, teasing her, said, "add a little sausage and you would

have a really nice pizza."

Not knowing what a pizza was (it didn't translate), she

grimaced at him with mock disdain, "Sausage over the cheese?

maybe in Rome, but never in Judea. Besides we don't eat pork.

Don't you know that the Romans call my country The Land Where

Pigs Grow Old? But such a suggestion is what I would expect

from an uncircumcised mound of stinking camel shit like you."

Picard was laughing so hard he almost choked. Miryam, still

toying with him, stood up and folded her hands in pretend

indignation. Picard tugged on the bottom of her dress, trying

to get her back. He wasn't interested anymore in pizza or

sausage; he wanted to make love to her. Grabbing her by the

waist, he pulled her to him on the floor and put his hand up

under her garment. She playfully pushed him away but he was

insistent, Besides he knew Miryam was not seriously trying to

avoid sex because her juices were already flowing. He intended

to take her right there on the carpet.

Managing to get her down on the rug, he got on top of her,

pressing his aching, rock-hard penis between her legs and

kissing her forcefully. Miryam was beside herself with lust

and spread her legs open for him. Her urgency was powerful and

she moaned loudly as he entered her, "Yes, yes, oh, Picard,

yes, please..."

But he was overwhelmed by his own passion and came almost as

soon as he thrust in.

Realizing what had happened but too excited to just stop,

Miryam put her hands on his head and pushed him down to her

throbbing clitoris, praying he would know what to do. He did

not disappoint her. Working his tongue furiously, he sucked in

her juices mixed with his own semen. It took only a few

minutes for her to have an explosive orgasm. Picard embraced

her tightly and they stayed quietly together as he eventually

fell into a light sleep.

In his dream Picard was back on the Enterprise bridge, sitting

in his chair naked with a raging hard-on. Dr. Crusher was

sitting next to him wearing nothing but her blue lab coat. The

crew moved through their duties in surrealistic slow-motion.

"Beverly, I want to fuck you."

"Oh god, Jean-Luc, what took you so long. Let me suck on you."

The dream doctor knelt in front of the dream Captain and moved

her mouth over his penis until he ejaculated.

The orgasm woke Picard up. It was not Beverly Crusher but

Miryam sucking on him as he slept. After draining him

completely she curled her body back around his, saying nothing.

It had been an interlude of mindless passion, precipitated by

nothing. Picard caressed Miryam but he was disturbed by the

meaning of his dream. Why had he never fucked Beverly. Not

that he hadn't wanted to, or that she was reluctant. They had

feelings for each other. What was he waiting for? If he ever

got back to the Enterprise, some things would be very

different. He stayed awake for a long time while Miryam rested

again in his arms.

---- two days later -----

It was time to return to Matrilla's house. Miryam could not stay away

forever. Walking out the door, Picard wondered if he would ever see

this house again.

After about a half hour, they came to a main square where a large

crowd of people had gathered, many screaming, several crying. Miryam

and Picard stopped to look and saw a gallows had been set up. There

were three children waiting for execution and the public executioner

was about to kill one of them - a young girl. The people watching were

shouting at the executioner. It was a horrible scene and Picard asked

Miryam to inquire of someone what was going on.

"You can see first hand the brutality of Tiberius. These are the

three children of Sejanus. Their father was executed yesterday and

today they will follow him. The people are shouting a reminder to the

executioner that it is against Roman law to execute a virgin. Perhaps

he will let the girl go free."

As the two watched, the man threw the young girl to the ground and

mounted her, shoving a massive erection into her, ripping her open.

The girl was screaming. When he had finished his rape, he lifted up

the girl by her hair and shouted to the crowd, "She is no longer a

virgin," and quickly put her and her brothers to death, throwing the

bodies down the steps before walking away.

It was gruesome, and Picard and Miryam were both in shock at what they

had just seen. She turned to him and sobbed uncontrollable into his

chest, "I hate this city, I hate this city." He said nothing but

swore that before he left he would see to it that Miryam had the means

to get out of Rome.

*****************

When they arrived at the brothel they were immediately aware of a

great amount of chattering and activity going on. Several of the

girls were going in and out of one particular room whispering and

giggling to each other.

Matrilla walked over to Miryam, trying in vain to keep a stern face.

"It's about time you came back. Your customers have been complaining

for two days." Matrilla smirked cryptically, "And you have been

missing all the excitement."

Miryam instantly forgot all the recent troubles and waved to her

friends, Fortunata and Charyses. They skipped over to her, grabbing

her hands and pulling her towards the mysterious adventure. Picard

was relieved to see her happy again and just stood to one side,

watching.

"Miryam, you have got to see this," Fortunata said, "you won't believe

it. A strange man came to the house yesterday. He is so weird!"

Miryam thought it was definitely a week for strange men. She didn't

think, however, that anyone could be stranger or nicer than her

Picard.

Charyses chimed in, "He's had an erection for six hours, Can you

believe that? Nothing we do makes any difference. We have been

having so much fun with him."

Fortunata added, "Matrilla sent a secret note to Quinta Drusilla.

She's in there now, riding him like a prize stallion."

"The Senator's wife?" Miryam said, laughing at the image of Quinta

Drusilla going at it with a strange man. "Matrilla," she shouted to

the old matron, "you should bind this man in shackles and send notes

to all the Senators' wives. You'll make a fortune!"

"And Miryam," Charyses said in an awed tone, "he has yellow eyes."

Picard, on hearing that remark, didn't wait for an invitation to burst

into the room.

"Data!"

Data was on a couch and Quinta Drusilla was on Data. She had her

hands on his shoulders and was wildly moving her hips up and down on

him, moaning and screaming from the pleasure. Quinta was working up

to her first good orgasm in a long time.

Data didn't notice Picard. He was intent on what was going on with

this woman. When her climax finally hit, she let out one last scream

and collapsed on top of him. It was then that Data turned his head

towards the door where he had heard someone shout his name.

"Captain," Data said loudly, jumping up. As he stood up from the

couch, Quinta Drusilla was unceremoniously detached from his still

erect penis and tumbled onto the floor, a satisfied smile fixed on her

face.

"Captain Picard, I am glad to see you are all right."



"Yes, Data, I am fine and extremely happy to see you." Picard didn't

think it was necessary to mention what had just gone on. He was sure

Data would explain eventually. "And Data, would you please get

dressed."

"Yes Captain." Data deprogrammed his erection and pulled on a long

hooded robe that had been lying on the floor, seemingly discarded in

haste.

"Data," Picard said, suppressing a grin, "where did you get that

outfit. You look like Friar Tuck!"

"Commander Riker felt it would be best to cover as much as possible.

Captain, we have discovered the location of the wormhole and will be

able to transport you back to..."

Picard cut him off with a finger on his lips. "You can tell me all

this later." He signaled with his hands and eyes to Data that it was

not appropriate to speak in front of all these people. If Data was

connected to the ship's universal translator or had one downloaded

directly into his programming, they would be able to understand

everything he was saying.

Miryam was already upset by what transpired. She sensed immediately

that the appearance of this Data meant the end of her beautiful

relationship with Picard. Close to tears, she sulked off to a corner

of the room.

Matrilla, on the other hand, was very intrigued by what she had just

heard.

"So you are CAPTAIN Picard! You are a military man. I never would

have guessed. You don't seem like the soldier type, and neither does

your comrade. What legion do you both belong to?"

"I'd rather not discuss it," Picard said curtly, brushing her aside.



He had noticed Miryam in the corner and knew she was distressed.

There was no time for small talk with this nosy matron. He left Data

and the rest of the crowd to fend for themselves as he took Miryam by

the hand to an empty room. Picard couldn't explain why he was leaving

but he was sure the details and reasons were not important to Miryam.

He wanted to give her a chance to express feelings that he knew were

locked up inside. They sat on a couch and, nestling her head against

his chest, she revealed all her hopes and dreams; things she had never

shared before.

"Do you know what I would like? I would like to go live far away in

some barbarian land, like Britain or Germany. Someplace where there

is still a little unspoiled freedom left." She sighed, "but I will

have to stay here until I can save enough money to get away, and that

will take a long, long time."

"Maybe not so long," he said holding her tight, "maybe I can help you.

Do you have a gold coin?"

Intrigued by the hope he offered, her expression suddenly brightened

as she ran to get him an Aureus from her hidden box. He took the coin

and told her to wait for him in the main room. Alone in the room he

signaled Data with the comm badge to meet him.

"Data, I want you to return to the Enterprise. Use the replicators to

make six hundred copies of this gold coin. I also want four dozen each

of diamonds, rubies, and emeralds. Set aside one hundred coins in a

fabric bag and pack the remainder in two inconspicuous wooden boxes.

Meet me back in this room in one hour."



**********

The time had come for Picard to say goodbye to Miryam. He was not

looking forward to this, both because he would miss her terribly and

he did not want to hurt her. But there was no alternative; to take

her with him was impossible.

She was in the small room where they had seen each other for the first

time. Picard told Data to put the boxes in the room and wait by the

doorway. Miryam would not face him. She spoke to him with her back

turned, "Turn off your tricorder. I don't want to understand what you

are going to say."

He gently turned her around. Huge tears were falling from her dark

eyes, staining her cheeks.



"Miryam, I am continually amazed by you. How do you know this is

called a tricorder?" She grabbed it angrily as he held it up in front

of her.

"Just because I am a whore doesn't mean I can't read! It says right

here on the bottom: T-R-I-C-O-R-D-E-R, a word no doubt invented by

someone in your country who speaks very bad Latin!"

"And when," he asked teasing, "did you get the chance to examine the

tricorder for inscriptions?"

"Oh," she replied returning the tease while placing the tricorder on

the floor, "probably one of the times that I was undressing you." She

could never stay angry at him and fought back the tears with a forced

smile. Running her hand along his body, she stopped to squeeze his

bulge. He closed his eyes for a second and did nothing to stop her

fondling.

"Fuck me, Picard. Fuck me one more time right here." She hoped the

vulgarity of her language would convey to him the arousal she felt.

As always, he was totally overcome by lust for her. He pressed her

breasts and then moved his hand under her shirt and between her legs

to feel the wetness. Picard knew Data was still watching, but his

desire for Miryam were too strong at that moment to resist. He shoved

her against the wall as she wrapped her legs around his waist to

anchor herself. Freeing his hard penis, he pushed into her, each

thrust moving Miryam up and down along the masonry, accompanied by

moans of pleasure.

Data watched silently from the doorway as his Captain, the man he

considered to be the epitome of human decency and honor, had crude

noisy sex against a wall. The grunting and moaning intensified until

reaching orgasmic intensity. As Picard removed Miryam from himself,

Data's positronic brain incorporated into his programming a new

understanding of human behavior.

"Data," Picard said without turning to face him, " please leave us

alone for a few minutes."

"I'll be waiting at the appropriate place, Captain," he said and left

quickly.

"Miryam, inside those two boxes is your freedom. Don't open them

until I'm gone and don't let anyone else know. Data has already given

something to your friends, to Otho, and even to Matrilla; everything

else is from me to you alone. I know I'm being vague, but promise me

you'll be careful with what I'm leaving you."

She answered him with a mock insulted look, "I'm always careful; and

I'm smart. You should know that by now."

"I do know that, and you must believe me, you have a good life ahead

of you."

The farewell was becoming unbearable for both of them. The quicker it

was over, the better. He gave her a kiss and walked out the door.

"Vale, Picard. In perpetuum mei memoria tene."
