With that vague comment she proceeded to extend her right scythe and repeatedly slash at the horrified Carter, who instinctively raised his hands in defense. Only to feel nothing but a draft as his pants fell to the floor, small cuts now visible along the waist of the pants.

He pointed an accusing finger at her even as his blush deepened. "You could have made me a eunuch!"

"Nonsense," she said dismissively. "An experienced mantis only cuts what she intends to cut."

“Well you still could have warned me!"

She retracted her scythe, ignoring his complaint.

“Now I must begin exciting you further to make you erect.”

She grabbed him by the shirt, pulled him toward her and kissed him again, more fiercely and erotically than before, and Carter found himself relaxing into her soft, agile lips. How could something as simple as touching Lips feel so good?

Her kissing skills were indeed amazing, but when he chanced a curious peek he found she kept her eyes partly open during them, giving a detached expression that was more than a little off-putting. He closed his eyes, trying to banish the image from his mind and simply enjoy the kissing, but couldn't help but Look again. This time her eyes were shut, perhaps she was copying him? That thought was interrupted though, his whole body jumping at the sudden assault on his senses caused by the intrusion of one hand down his underwear, the other holding him in place by the shoulder. She began to deftly fondle his member without pause.

Shocked though he was, the kissing and surprisingly skilled way her fingers worked on him still had him hard as he'd ever been very soon.

He couldn't help but moan a bit in her kiss. It all felt so good.

“Enough foreplay," she stated simply before cutting off his underwear with a smooth slice.

“I could have just taken it off-" he started but was silenced by her pushing him down to the blanket of furs below.

“Lay down," she commanded.

“Aren't you going to get undressed?" he asked even as he was forced to comply, "And shouldn't I take off my shirt?"

“That's unnecessary. As for me, I am wearing no true clothing save for this thread," she stated as she removed the red ribbon tied in a bow from her neck and placed it on the floor.

When did she put that ribbon on, I wonder? Before this experience, he had never seen it. She must have been getting ready to masturbate after dinner. As she closed her eyes in thought, confusion over the ribbon, however, vanished from his mind.

Carter couldn't believe what he was seeing. Before him Taki's skin seemed to shift, shine and ripple under her skin-tight garments. The tattered lower portion of her body suit began shrinking and vanishing, as if being absorbed directly into her torso, and revealing the same creamy pale human skin of her legs. Indeed it appeared as if the skin-tight suit under her armor plates had simply been erased, leaving her naked underneath. He was so confused at the sight that it took him a moment to be embarrassed over the glistening wet vagina that had also been revealed and was being shamelessly displayed between her Legs.

“What you saw as clothing is essentially a second protective skin, which I can draw back as needed." She briefly Looked herself up and down, her body now naked save for the armor plates on her sides, the sides of her breasts, and her shoulders.

“This should be sufficient."
