Hello Guys! I am so thankful for all the supportive comments I got for Chapter 1. I tried to take my time with this chapter and flesh out the characters better and set up some plot points for the future. I agree with you that Dex and Mitch needed their personalities to shine more so I attempted that with this chapter. I hope this chapter contains less grammar and spelling errors. I’ve also included some hints to Dex’s past as well. The next chapter will focus more on Mitch’s modification surgery and Dex opening up more.
Also, just to address some of the comments comparing my story to The Harvest… the two stories may be similar in the fact that they both involve male pregnancy and are set in the future but that is where the similarities end. And as I continue to write more chapters that fact will hopefully become more apparent. The Harvest is EXTREMELY well written and I have great respect for both NMT and WendyDru, but I do think its a bit unfair to say that the subject of male pregnancy is now off limits. I understand that readers of both series really cannot help comparing and NMT has set the bar really high for me but I hope that as the story continues for Dex and Mitch readers will see that this series is not intended as a copy and really has a life of its own.
Again any and all feedback is welcomed.
Enjoy!

Chapter 2
Three Years Ago, New Hope National Federation Base.
“What the hell! Are you cheating on me!?”
“No! Jesus Kay, it’s not what it looks like.”
“It looks like I caught you screwing around with your damn Navigating Officer!”
Dex’s wife, Kay, was standing in the middle the FSC Prudential Control Room. Her pale face was red, her piercing blue eyes wild and red rimmed staring right at Dex.
Dex was hastily trying to button up his uniform shirt as his Navigating Officer pulled up his pants and grabbing his shirt ran from the deserted Control Room, his youthful face embarrassed and ashamed.
“Kay it’s…it’s nothing! It meant nothing.” Dex was caught red handed. He didn’t know what to say. His beautiful wife had just walked in on him fucking one of his officers. Dex had told Kay that he had to report to the Prudential for a systems check. The Prudential was ghostlike, barely anyone was on board.
“So you admit it! Dex I’m your wife! What the hell were you thinking”. Kay was screaming and crying as she advanced on Dex angry. She picked up a metal communicator and threw it at him. Dex was nearly two feet taller than his petite wife, and easily avoided it. He met Kay and grabbed her arms, tight.
“Kay! Listen to me! It meant nothing. It’s just a fuck. I love you!”
“Fuck you. Love? This is how you show you love me? Cheating on me, and with a man on top of that!” Kay started thrashing around hitting Dex in his chest. She wrestled free when she caught Dex under his chin with a right hand. She ran towards the Control Room door but turned before she left.
“How could you?” She was calm but she looked so destroyed; it broke Dex’s heart.
That was the last time Dex saw her alive.
Dex sat up, reaching out at nothing. He was covered in sweat and his heart was beating fast. It took him a minute to figure out where he was. Dex was laying on a portable bed in his office down the hall from the ship’s Helm.
Dex swung his legs over the side of the the bed and took a deep breath. Last night he’d left Mitch, naked and alone in their suite after receiving the letter scheduling Mitch’s modification surgery.
Dex been equally surprised by the surgery notice. It brought Dex crashing back to reality fast. So many emotions came over Dex in that moment. He was torn between wanting to comfort Mitch to being overwhelmed with guilt and disappointment.
Dex prided himself in the fact that he was a good Captain and good soldier. He always followed orders and obeyed commands from the Federation. But this time he felt like he couldn’t go through with it. Dex had made a promise to his wife and that promise conflicted with his current assignment.
So in that moment when he was naked in bed watching Mitch read that letter Captain Dex had chose the easiest option, he ran. He got dressed and left as quick as he could.
Dex had never felt anything romantic for a man in his life. Dex had had sex with men of course, he always liked the feeling of a hard body under him. The feeling of lean muscle and strong arms grabbing his waist was an instance turn on. But love? Never. Love wasn’t something Dex believed he could feel for a man short of the brotherly love shown between Federation soldiers.
But Dex had to admit he had felt something for Mitch. The look of shock on Mitch’s face when he read the letter made Dex want to wrap his arms around him. Dex couldn’t deal with those feelings so he had stayed away from Mitch and their room.
Dex got up off the bed and went to stand in front of the wide window in his office. He gazed out at the base, watching as people flitted about reading the ship for take off tomorrow. Captain Dex stretched and felt his muscles protest. His whole body was aching and not just because he’d been sleeping on a flimsy portable bed. His body craved Mitch. Dex desperately wanted to return to the suite and tackle Mitch. The feeling of Mitch’s mouth on his cock skillfully bring him to the brink of and orgasm made Dex groan. Dex wanted to bury his cock in Mitch’s ass until he came deep inside him.
Dex put his face in his hands.
“What the hell am I gonna do?” He had to return to change his uniform at least and he didn’t think he could take sleeping in his office another night.
Dex growled and got dressed. It was 4am but he couldn’t sleep so figured to he’d get an early start to the day.
But all day the feelings of frustration and wanting plagued him. He was a Starship Captain with years of experience. He was trained in handling his emotions, to make hard decisions, but for the life of him he didn’t think he could stop whatever feeling that were growing for Mitch.
Dex eventually came to the conclusion that he had to face Mitch and what ever feeling were waiting for him back at the suite. His sanity depended on it.
“Dammit! Work!” Mitch angrily kicked at the orbital decompressor with his foot. He’d been on E Deck level eight trying to get the floor’s decompressor to work. If it didn’t relieve the pressure on the level then they’d have to clear the whole floor. Mitch has been at it for over four hours and the stupid thing still would not kick on.
“Hey, easy. Be nice”. A gravelly voice floated into his ear. Mitch turned around to see another engineer leaning against the door way to the maintenance room.
They guy was handsome. He was tall with dark brown eyes, full lips, and wavy black hair almost as long as Mitch’s. His body was tight, like he lifted weights often. Bulging arms with laser tattoos swirling around them were crossed in front of him. He looked tough, strong, and pretty hot in a bad boy sort of way.
