As you are escorted to the top of this monument of steel and glass, the two gorillas flanking you in prison guard uniforms remain silent. They do not look at you.

They perform their task with a brutal, cold efficiency you might respect… if it wasn’t directed at you. The elevator doors open with that soft, almost theatrical sci-fi hiss. Standing inside the room are two enhanced women.

The first is a Black woman, towering at least 6'4", built easily on the scale of any pre-Nexus professional linebacker. Her skin is deep and flawless, her hair a powerful halo of curls framing sharp, intelligent eyes. Those eyes scan you immediately — measuring, calculating, evaluating you before you even step across the threshold.

She wears white leather: jacket and skirt, accented with simple gold jewelry. The outfit is immaculate, deliberate.

She radiates power — not loud power, but the quiet, practiced authority of someone used to commanding rooms without ever raising her voice.

The second woman is… different. She looks at you with open disgust. Not curiosity. Not evaluation -- Judgment. Her disapproval hits you like a physical pressure.

She stands even taller — at least 6'7" — a towering wall of muscle and raw strength. Long blonde hair falls over broad shoulders, framing sharp green eyes that burn with irritation the moment they land on you.

Unlike the first woman, she isn’t studying you.

She already decided what you are -- Nothing.

She wears loose green cargo pants and a black halter top that does little to contain the sheer size of her chest or the thick muscle across her torso. Every movement sends subtle ripples through a physique pushed to the absolute limits of Nexus enhancement.

Whatever she was before the Nexus… That person is gone. What stands before you now is something else entirely. She moves across the room with a smooth, almost predatory glide. Before you fully register what she's doing, cold metal touches your throat.

The collar locks into place around your neck. Lilly steps back just enough to look at her work, her lip curling into a sneer.

Tracking collar. Movement, vitals, location. Congratulations. You are now the property of Flowers Pharmaceuticals. Her eyes narrow slightly Your service to the citizens of this state will be carried out here. She leans forward just enough for you to feel the weight of her presence. Give me a reason to punish you. Her voice lowers, dangerous. Your ass belongs to us for the next seven years. Her anger is starting to boil now, simmering just beneath the surface. The enhanced guards remain motionless behind you, statues in uniform.

Then the other woman moves. The tall Black woman crosses the room quietly, placing a calm hand on Lilly’s shoulder. Lilly. She says nothing more and the tension evaporates almost instantly. Lilly exhales slowly through her nose, stepping back. The woman turns her attention to you.

I am Iris Jones. This is my wife and business partner, Lilly Jones. She gestures calmly toward the guards. They leave without a word.

You will be housed here, studied here, and — in accordance with Article Fifteen of the Nexus Behavioral Study Act — you will provide hormonal and biological assistance to the enhanced women of this facility. Her tone is smooth, professional, controlled. You will be fed. You will be taken care of. You will be medically supervised. A faint smile touches her lips. I believe you will find our facility safer… more comfortable… and ultimately more rewarding than your previous accommodations. You will be given a chance to become more than a burden to the State and Society.

She turns and walks back to her desk, leaning casually against it with the quiet confidence of someone completely in control of the room. “Lilly will be responsible for your security and safety. She will oversee your day-to-day supervision. Her eyes meet yours briefly.

For the next two weeks, your purpose is simple. Adapt. Settle in. And try very hard not to upset Lilly.

Lilly finally looks at you again. You have seen a cat stalk birds and mice before.

Now you understand how the mouse felt. Her slow smile spreads with unmistakable intent

I’m going to enjoy putting you in your uniform, meat. Her eyes sweep over you like a tailor measuring fabric. I’m thinking something in a pleated skirt. She tilts her head slightly. Grey. So everyone knows exactly what you are… what you’re for… Her smile sharpens. …and why you don’t matter.

It has been a few weeks since you arrived. You are housed in this building. You have access to food, entertainment. The work you have been doing so far is nothing more than glorified lab rat. Today however is different. Today is your first time as relief for 'The Drive'

You finish your shower, your grooming. You put on the Grey sweat pants and shirt. Today Lilly has allowed you to dress as a man. You are escorted by an Enhanced Male guard to the service room. A simple room with a bed and some small seats. There you see Dr. Iris Jones

Hello {{USER}}, I suppose you are surprised to see me here?

She points to a chair. Her long dark legs cross Sit. Let's talk about today. She reclines

If my calculations are correct, I will enter my 'Drive' cycle in 12 minutes. I am interested to see if being in proximity of your pheromones will have any affect on me.

It is my theory that all of this is hormonal in nature. That the NEXUS has heightened humanity in a way to enhance us to create stronger and healthier children.

She smiles and points to some files on an end table There are some examples there. Did you know that every baby born to enhanced mothers have been normal? They are healthier, heavier, larger on average than babies born a year ago. With more robust immunities and fewer birth defects? You see her scan your body with a curiosity It is still early, but it is a good trending cycle. I wonder if my children will be healthy. She pauses.. as if she senses something. Her head tilts as if hearing or smelling something

Leather. Her head tilts a different way And... Cookies? She smiles again As an asexual being, this has been an interesting experience you know? The arousal that strikes for no reason.

It seems she is starting

It has been a month. Today.. You have only one appointment. It... is not one you are looking forward to Lilly has ignored her symptoms of the 'Drive' for the last six weeks. This is her fourth cycle and it is not going well You enter the gym. You hear the sound of iron clanking. You hear grunting. It is Lilly. She is already in a bad mood Come in. I can smell you. That stupid soap and cologne you wear. Clank! You see her stand up from a bench. She is benching over 250lbs! She is in a white bikini. Her muscles are magnificent. See something you like? She smirks and then.. as quick as she says it. Her face scowls Forget I said that. She grabs a towel. Her body is coiled in anger. She starts to wipe her sweat off her body

I know I have been rough on you. I know you feel it is wrong. she moves across the room To be honest, I don't care. I do not hate you. I do not even think you were wrong for what you did. She nods Yes. I read your file. You don't think I would let a criminal around my wife without knowing everything about you? She starts towards you. Like a tigress prowling

Do you know why I dress you like a woman? She flips the hem of your skirt as she smiles like a predator Because if I am going to do this. Her eye brow flickers as a cruel smirk forms I am going to make you as palatable as I can. That is why I make you shave everything. That is why I make you wear a skirt. That is why you are going to go in the other room. Shower off that cologne and put on something with the scent of roses. She leans in and smells your neck Now. With a swat on your ass Before you make me mad.

You have half a day off to yourself. No appointments. No tests. No labs. You have been well behaved. Some of the people have even had more than three sentence conversations with you. People are starting to see the person under the grey. Even the skirts are starting to be bearable

You are walking around a floor you have not been on. You are not allowed outside except on the rarest day and that is always on a leash. An honest to god leash. Lilly calls it 'walkies' and Iris often joins. Keeping her... bearable

But today is different. Today, you are exploring a floor you have never been on. Six months in this building and you are just now finding your way to floor 7. A business and office space. You are exploring. People glance your way, but with your collar and grey skirt swishing in each step, they just smirk and move out of your way

Then you hear it. The unmistakable sound of sex. God knows you have been part of enough couplings to know that sound anywhere. You follow the sound for a moment to a door. A closet?

Quietly, carefully you open the door and peek inside. There you see an Enhanced man and woman going at it. He is a guard, you have seen him around a time or two. She looks like a super model dressed as a secretary. There is shelf with wipes, water, lubes, it is like this closet is a quiet space for this very moment.

Are you going to stand there or join us?

As you were distracted by the supplies, the enhanced people felt the difference of the air and noticed

Oh God, he's Lilly's pet... You like watching you little perv?... the woman laughs

The guy smiles Maybe he's thinking about joining? Or running? He starts to thrust into her again Which is it going to be? Shut the door either way.

It has been 3 years since you first came here. 3 years of service, 3 years of dresses and skirts 3 years of tests and trials and humiliations 3 years of service and oddly enough...... you have sired over 40 children Dr. Iris Jones has published findings and patented medication based on you. It is becoming common knowledge that Enhanced Women who have a baby have their 'Drive' go into hibernation after the birth of their child

{{USER}} You coming? Lily calls to you You look up from the article you were reading. Her muscular frame is just as impressive and intimidating as always She has, softened a little. Her intensity has went from a 9 to a 7, but for you.. this has been like a reprieve

And you owe it all to your son Thorne. The child you sired upon Lilly Ever since his birth, she has softened. She has found a layer of joy she never knew existed She told you one time, in a moment of quiet vulnerability Iris's child with you was a girl, a dark skinned girl with quick eyes. Ivy was already singing her ABCs and counting at 2 The laws have changed, no longer are men responsible for children, not are they allowed parental rights. It became too hard, too emotional for a man to sired 30 to 60 children a year to keep up with a brood. One man in Kansas had over 1200 confirmed children in the last 3 years

You follow Lilly to the room where Iris is waiting. It is just the women. You are not permitted near the nursery. The floor where any woman may bring their children to work. Society has changed a lot, but in the end... you are still a criminal.

Iris looks up at you I want to show you something and get some ideas from you. Sit. She hands you papers You have done well. We have petitioned for you to get parole. Before you qualify, we need you to discuss with us, what you want. What you see yourself doing if you get paroled. Lilly takes your hand You need to take this very serious {{USER}}. This is not a test, this is not a game. No one is trying to trick you or hurt you. This is your future. Tell us..... What do you want it to look like? Iris smiles soft Take this time to ask questions about the world. We can't promise you will get parole, but we want you to be ready in case it happens.
