Hunting lesson for an illusory dragon Ajana (feral deer) Ajana is nibbling on some leaves, waiting for aspiring hunters, or hunter wannabes. Armaleos It has been quite some time now Armaleos visited this part of the forest and saw the sign. Learning to hunt? He always dreamed to be a real dragon and this would at least make him feel that way! He decided today would be the day he embraces his wish, the small black dragon walking his way on the dirt path and soon to find all the equipment, ready to be used. It seems there was no one, besides this deer peacefully chewing. "Uhm... Hello? I saw we could learn to hunt here? I'm not one to use tools but I definitely have some of my own I would like to... sharpen..." hesitantly said the derg, talking while looking at the herbivore but uncertain to who he was really talking to. Ajana (feral deer) Ajana jumped quite a bit. While she had been waiting patiently, the lack of customers during the last days - or rather weeks - had not really contributed to high expectations to suddenly seeing a customer. Add to that the fact she had totally missed the approaching dragon - unlike more anthropomorphic clients he did not drive a loud and fuming jeep or landrover or other massive vehicle but came relatively stealthy - and the fact that Ajana was still a prey species, which appropriate natural instincts to respond to the presence of a dragon, even if this one maybe had never honed his own natural instinctive skills. But after a second she had herself under control, blushing deeply, and ambarassed by the fact she completely missed that customer. What a great hunting teacher was she, when she could be sneaked up upon that easily... "Hi... I... ehm... Yeah sure... I'm Ajana, I'm the teacher here. Feel free to come closer, there's no one on the shooting range right now." She told him. And yes, technically where she was standing might have been a dangerous spot if someone was manning the stands with a rifle or bow and arrow, but they were deserted. Ajana looked in no way different from a true feral, although her species wasn't really native to these forests where a white tail would have been more common. But you'd need to tell different deer species apart to even tell the difference. She was definitely a deer. A doe, a deer, a female deer, complete with a cute little udder, just big enough to look like a tasty treat to a predator, or like tasty virgin, if you were a stag... She in turn has a close look at her customer. A black dragon, definitely, although barely larger than herself, she studies his features Armaleos "Oh h-hello!" Clearly, Armaleos wasn't prepared for the deer to actually be the teacher. He slowly approached the other animal, keeping his head a little low in embarrassment. "So you... you are the teacher, right? It's a bit odd to see a prey species teaching potential predators! Of course nothing wrong about that! You have nothing to fear from me though, I don't really feed on flesh!" Even if what the dragon was saying was true, he had quite an arsenal of very competent weapons to shred a deer like her. His claws where long and sharp, actually replacing the last phalanx of his hands and feet fingers. His maw was equipped with sharp and big teeth with two four long fangs. His wings, for now retracted but looking quite gigantic for his size. Even if his impressively long tail would look like a bother during flight, it would make a perfect whip or even a great brush to hide his footprints. And of course, he had scales everywhere, sturdy looking black rocks covering his entire body except for his belly, being white with a blue line in the middle. He looked quite heavy and yet, very agile a capable to follow a prey over long distances. He might not be the best at sprinting given his size, he would definitely get them on the long run, if he ever let them the chance to anyways. Or so that was what she could analyse from her experience, even if Armaleos never used his flair before. Ajana (feral deer) Ajana felt an instinctive shiver of excitement running down her spine as she took the dragon's impressive features in. Fear mix with a fascination for such a majestic creature. Somehow she feels a certain attraction as strong as the fear. That's just the deer being weird probably "Hehe... that's ... good to know...." she answers, gulping. Then makes a step closer, studying those wings. "Can... can you fly? I think if you can, that would probably be useful for your hunting technique. Though... if you don't eat meat... may I ask, no offense, why do you want to hunt, then?" Armaleos A terribly good question! It made the derg really uneasy as his honesty struck before his wish to embrace his dream. "I! ...errr... I'm sorry, it's just that, I really wish I was a real dragon and I thought learning to hunt, or at least see the techniques real predators uses would help me feel a bit better." Although, even if most his senses were far from being trained, one was clearly working well and tickling his stomach. "My name is Armaleos! Nice to meet you! B-but please! Don't be afraid of me! I won't hurt you I swear!" He could feel it, smell her fear. That would make for a devastating tool for sure as he was able to tell the exact position of a scared creature. Even if his prey manages to escape and hide, just the fact they are running for its life makes them unable to really lose this shadow beast. "Yes, I can fly! Quite fast too! Even if my body is really heavy, I turn most of it into cinders to be way lighter." explained Armaleos, trying to be as calm and cheerful as possible. He really didn't want Ajana to feel uncomfortable, or worst, scared. Ajana (feral deer) Ajana noticed Armaleos attempts to make her feel at ease. A blush creeps on her face - visible more in how she holds her ears and in her eyes as no color change can be seen in her cheeks through the fur, but of course the emotion is clear. "Don't worry, I get predators here all the time. That triggers an instinctive reaction, in my body, but that doesn't mean I'm terrified, even if it might... smell that way." She admits. "Some even told me it makes me smell tasty..." She tells hims with a smirk. "But I kinda enjoy the thrill. Maybe I'm a bit of an adrenaline junky. Do you think my fear smells tasty?" she asks straight out Armaleos "I..." hesitated the derg, his maw kept open very slightly. "Y-yes, kinda! I mean... I can't lie to you, I eat dreams. I turn them into nightmares and feed on the creature's fears and despair. So, I kinda smell when a living being is scared and it does trigger my appetite..." admitted Armaleos, approaching one step closer to her. "But I shouldn't eat flesh! Even if it makes me a bit hungry, eating a scared creature won't satiate me the slightest but will simply calm me down for a bit." His tail gave a gentle swing. It had some sort of silver fur on its top and covering its tip, ending in some sort of soft brush. "So, if you have predators coming often here, how did you manage to stay alive for so long? It's quite impressive! I bet they already tried to devour you!" he ashed, innocently, his wonderful eyes staring straight to her soul with its glowing pink and yellow color. Ajana (feral deer) Ajana blushes a bit. "Well, how do they say, keep your friends close, and your enemies closer?" She chuckles. "It's for mutual benefit. In most hunters schools, the teachers are hunters. But what's the first thing they teach... To be a successful hunter, you need to think like your prey. Feel it's emotions, anticipate it's next move, so you can be one step ahead. But they are hunters, all their attempts to anticipate what the prey would feel is guesswork. I, on the other side am quite the expert. Everything else in hunting, that's just technique. Everyone can learn to operate a bow or a rifle, or a snare. That's just a tool. Everyone will become good with practice, but that won't make a successful hunter. It's all about the relationship with the prey. And the same goes for us prey species. It's a mindgame a bit like chess, but with more psychology. Getting close to all these aspiring predators might seem dangerous, but when things get tough, it's what gives me the edge. A good hunter can 'read' his prey. But I can also read the hunter. You want to be a more impressive dragon, don't you? You want to look at yourself in the mirror, and feel proud, and remember that feeling the next time you meet other dragons, don't you? Maybe... I can help you. I think you came to the right place." she smiles enigmatically "But fisrst I need to learn what I gotta work with. Try to follow me as sneakily as possible. Don't worry, I'm not trying to get away, I'm merely leading the way. But the other animals will tell you if you are sneaky enough. If you notice the birds go silent and the mice hide in their burroughs under the leaves, you've been too clumsy." she instructs, then heads straight to the densest underbrush in between she vanishes kinda miraculously and very elegantly. As if the dense brush was just a silky veil Armaleos He listened at her with fascination, not losing any words and already imagining himself hunting down a prey. Although, he really didn't like the last part all that much. "I... don't want to be more impressive. I don't need that. In fact, I don't need to impress any dragon because I'm not even one. Learning to hunt would just make me feel like I were, but I hope it won't turn into another addiction..." Of course, he took note of the instructions and without being able to ask any question, she left. He took a big breath, hoping he didn't get himself in something he might regret before casually walking through the bushes, struggling to get past through it. He figured to pass this test, he would need to use one of his worst enemy: his own body. Armaleos isn't a real dragon. He is some sort of illusion, working and looking exactly like one besides his diet. So he turned down his illusion, just like he does during the night. He didn't want to cheat too much though, even if we could call it one of his tool. But Ajana was clear about that, a tool is great but it's not what makes you a good hunter! So he walked peacefully, tailing her from not too far without making a single noise. Although, he looked around at the forest and thought about something. Deers, they usually look around them and they often have their head lowered to graze. They would be less likely to spot a creature spying on them from above! So he quickly bounced away and disappeared like a shadow, quickly climbing on a tree like the swift lizard he was before clinging on the its bark using his long sharp claws. It was way easier to keep an eye on her this way and all he had to do was to jump from a tree to another, barely needing his wings at all and trying to not use them, ensuring his shadow wouldn't cross their vision at any moment. Ajana (feral deer) Ajana was impressed. She totally would not have noticed the not-so-much-a-dragon-after-all in the trees, if it hadn't been for a terrified bird that happened to live in one of the trees. Blackbirds are sometimes called the alarm-system of the forest. And Armaleos was totally right, deer totally don't look up. Unless, of course, they know they are dealing with someone flight capable and just said feral bird started complaining loudly as they vacated the tree they had been in just a second before. Even looking up, she barely saw more than a dark shadow. Her heart made a jump, making her realize this predator was potentially much more dangerous than she thought. And she had misread him. Bragging away about her great predator reading skills she hadn't seen through the magical ruse. A wave of fear emmitted from her - easily noticeable by the fear-eater, but it was brief, as she had herself under control very very quickly. And he knew where she was anyway. He couldn't see her though. Somehow, even knowing behind which bush the deer had to be, she was completely invisible. Was she even still there? Ajana knew a thing or two about how predators could sense fear and she knew how to drown it out. All she needed was a stronger emotion that completely counteracted it. In this case it was curiousity. She wanted to know what the not-really-a-dragon would do when he couldn't sense her anymore. Or if she just didn't move for too long. Maybe she could turn the tables, and follow him? Armaleos The deer's technique to make her fear go away almost worked! The thing is, it's a feeling that never really goes away and stays hidden in the creature subconscious. As long as the threat is still here, the fear never really goes away. Although, it wasn't enough for the dragon to smell her exact position, merely the general direction he should follow. He was far away too and the birds he was scaring away were creating strays in his sensor, making it really hard to really spot Ajana without being distracted. That's when he figured stealth without turning down his illusion was really hard, but thrilling. He was able to feel what it was like to be a real dragon! So if his fear senses couldn't work, he had to use another one. His sight was definitely not the solution unless to detect a brush moving, which was hard because of the little breeze that was blowing in the woods. He was too far to hear anything so that was also out of the question. He never really used his nose to smell anything but again, so high up, he couldn't sniff anything. So what now? Did he get defeated already? Damn it was hard to be a real dragon! And he definitely didn't want to cheat by using his 'powers', so he took a deep breath and started to think again. If he could find a way to make his threat known, he could find them more easily, although, it would probably scare other creatures. So he just had to be stealthier! The deer knows a dragon is after her so if the forest is dead silent, she probably would get concerned! And even if the prey didn't know, he would simply wait high above in the trees to finally see her again and try to make his presence known just to her. Yes! That was the idea! So he looked around, watching for the potential birds nesting, squirrels climbing and any other tiny creatures he could think of to not disturb. He followed the general direction of her scent, getting a little bit lower to make sure he wouldn't miss her but staying high enough and out of her sight. Armaleos was focused. Really focused. Gliding around the trees like a death cloud, loosing a bit of cinders here and there that disappeared before having the time to fall, bouncing graciously and landing without making his claws scratch the tree or making it tremble. He finally got it! He almost was scaring himself with how efficient he had become in almost no time! Just like if some feral instinct were hidden deep inside him all along and only waiting to wake up! Only one bird tried to yelp but got mercilessly snapped by the lizard's maw, lost in his concentration and his new found love to hunt, devouring the poor thing which didn't ask anything but to have a happy life. He didn't chew a lot before swallowing it whole, licking the small amount of blood and feathers out of his lips before bouncing to the next tree. Ajana (feral deer) Ajana watched. She didn't see much, the problem with good camouflage was that it also made it hard to see through from the other side. But she could see the shadow moving from tree to tree and then down. Her ears were excellent, and with the sudden silence in the forest, she heard the snapping of that jaw, the squeak of a bird that wanted to squeak but was silenced as soon as it opened it's mouth. It was at that point that he would sense her fear again. Not strong, just a bit of a wave, a flare up, but it showed him the direction. She was still behind that bush. She knew he was coming for her. This time she didn't wait. She decided to change technique. If hiding didn't work, maybe speed would. There was no way she could outrun him flying, but she knew the forest very well, and in the densely grown thick part of it, she could sneak through on deer paths she knew by heart, while he couldn't fly fast unless he wanted to collide with a tree head on, and moving on the ground would be way slower - just because his larger body couldn't fit through the gaps and passages that she went through. That was, unless he could change his shape again into something swifter and more agile There was of course a third option. He could fly high, above the treetops, but from so high up it would be very hard to see which way she went, even if Armaleos could move freely whichever way he wanted Armaleos There she was! He saw her dart around the trees! Although, he was really surprised of her speed. How could she be so swift and so fast without bumping in a tree? After making some guesses, the only he could find was the ability a prey had to know and even make paths to better escape. Now he has been spotted, he didn't really need to be so stealthy, spreading his large wings while changing position on the tree, crawling its way so his snoot would point at the ground. He prepared his hind legs to use them as a spring and in some sort of blast sound, he propelled himself in a small burst of cinders. But instead of really flying, he was continuing to bounce of trees. Of course flying would be a terrible idea as avoiding a tree with the inertia would just lead in a catastrophic accident. So instead of avoiding them, he was aiming at them. It was impressively effective, able to catch up on the deer only to lose a bit of distance when she changes direction which gave him an idea. If she had paths to flee from him, then he should try to cut them. He didn't want to burn the forest just for a training - while a real dragon might have done it - but instead, he tried to lead the deer off her tracks by going past her, making sure she could hear the dragon approaching. To make it even worst, he tried to be in her line of sight, now bouncing closer from the bases of the trees but still high above the ground and maybe in a glimpse, she could have noticed the usual gentle pixie eyes of the beast turned red and purple, glowing devil orbs locked on her, displaying his fear senses got triggered enough to make his instincts take over. Fortunately he was still conscious and in control, trying to not overuse his abilities and using his clever brain instead, but this hunting session was clearly thrilling and he was starting to enjoy it a bit too much. Ajana (feral deer) Ajana loved the thrill of the hunt just as much as Armaleos did. That was probably clear, if not from the emotions that he could sense - thrill, fear, but also joy mixed - so from a glimpse of her face expression. Of course she spotted him. Like many prey species, she was gifted with good all around sight, and although she normally wouldn't have paid attention so much to what was above her, knowing he was flying up there changed that. Watching him bounce from tree to tree like a pinball was impressive to say the least. But it also made his path somewhat predictable. As he overtook her, she in turn managed to surprise him by going in a different direction- usually just passing by the same tree he had just bounded off but on the opposite side - so he had to revert back into the opposite direction. But nevertheless it resulted with her ending in a spot where the underbrush was much less dense, giving almost no cover. She kept running for now, but of course now he had the advantage. Armaleos The sudden shift in direction did took him by surprise! It's definitely something experience would have told him, but it was his very first 'real' hunt. At least his planed worked, making a triangle by jumping around trees to dash its way on her direction. Now his technique was busted, he had to try another one. With this path being a bit clearer, the dragon decided to finally use his wings to fly. It took a little bit of getting use to, but he finally managed to keep an eye on both his prey and the trees coming his way, using them sometimes to better calibrate his flight. At one point, he felt like he could catch up on her, now she was in such an open spot, a trail of cinders tailing the winged reptile, illustrating what he explained earlier about losing some weight to be able to fly. He could totally blast his way and lunge his claws at her but he didn't really know what was the rest of her training plan, so for now, he was simply trying to show his capacity to approach the deer, his wing flap ringing ever closer and this time, he was ready if Ajana decided to turn around again. Even with his surprising velocity, he could decide to aim for a tree and quickly bounce back. This time Armaleos was really confident. Ajana (feral deer) Ajana surprised him again, this time by, instead of changing direction once again, she used the slight slope of the ground in front of a massive tree to come to a dead stop. In unhidden awe she watched him glide towards her - and the massive tree. Dragons in flight were awe inspiring, and she had an unhealthy attraction to awe inspiring large predators. Somehow this creature, dangerous as it unquestionably was, was quite sexy. Maybe not exactly the type of emotion the fear eater usually feasted on, but there was still enough instinctive fear in the depth of her subconscious, although warped and morphed by her weird kink. The deer was also getting moist, and she was panting heavily - the latter mostly from a quite exhausting run at full pace over tricky terrain. He could probably smell both once he got close enough. She was still aware enough that she would duck to the ground if he was close enough that it looked like he'd collide into her, though. Armaleos He dodged the tree she stopped under and heavily landed on another not so far away. The impact forced the tree to lean a little, the dragon positioned and ready for a new leap, just waiting there. He was upside down, his rear pointed to the sky as his back feet where preparing a new bounce, his body looking down but his head facing her, these demonic eyes of the nightmare devourer locked on his prey. His special senses didn't allow him to smell anything else than fear and weirdly, it was slowly fading inside the deer. Ajana was out of breath, while the dragon was slowly growling, apparently no tired at all. If he had another impressive ability, it was his stamina. He was calm, peacefully humming his natural growl while being at the ready for another chase. But it seems it wasn't happening. It seems the predator won this one. Still clinging on the tree, he started to speak. "Did I do it? Was I good enough to catch you?" asked Armaleos casually. For sure, she looked both beautiful and delicious, all panting like that. He had mixed feelings hitting his brain, from his usual self wishing to give her a huge hug, or his newly found love to hunting that motivating him to sink his teeth on her flesh and violently murdering her. He shook his head a little, but it seems the thought wasn't about to go away. Ajana (feral deer) Ajana had to catch her breath before she answered. "You would have, I'm pretty sure. With that skill, you'd get me at least 8 out of 10 cases, unless I find some hiding spot where you can't follow." She told him. "You didn't tell me everything, earlier. What ... exactly ... are you? And why do you really want to hunt?" she asks again, now just panting deeply. There's an odd fire in her eyes, she's definitely attracted to this creature Armaleos Still clinging on his tree, his eyes were trying to return to their normal state, but the thought of savagely eating her couldn't go away from his mind. "As I said, I'm not really a dragon. In fact, I'm not real at all" started to explain the shadow creature. "My body is some sort of illusion I can control and cast on other's mind naturally. If you were to find a spot to hide, as long as you are scared, I could follow you. In fact, if I was using my illusion as a tool, I could even become like your shadow and follow you everywhere you go without the possibility to run away." He finally let go of the tree and landed quietly on the ground, spreading a bit of cinders from his body. "I'm not really a spirit, not really a ghost, I'm just something that doesn't really exist. I'm eternal, lived for thousands of years and I hate the fact I need to feed on nightmares. I don't even need it to 'survive', I just have to do it, my instincts forces me to. I wanted to learn how to hunt to feel like a real dragon, but I don't really want to hurt a creature who didn't ask anything. I don't want to murder an animal when I don't even have a use of its flesh." The illusory beast started to walk slowly on her direction, his tail giving a little swing. "I have to admit, I had the thought of eating you while I was chasing you. I felt like... a real predator. And I never thought deers would look so tasty and... so pretty." Something on her eyes was making her really attractive, his nose smelling a weirdly arousing scent. But he had to think about something else, or get away fast before doing any mistakes. "I-if that was our lesson, m-maybe I should go! You wouldn't want my new feral instincts to start devouring you, right? I have to thank you a lot because without you, I would feel this hunger hitting my stomach, this wish I have to eat you now I caught you. J-just... tell me how I can may you! I don't have money but I surely can find something!" But somewhere deep inside, he didn't want to leave. This small dragon only wanted one thing: getting his prize, abusing the deer before feeding on her flesh like a dragon would, like the dragon he always wanted to be, like the dragon he was now. Ajana (feral deer) Ajana tilted her head a bit, trying to make sense of the dragons - slightly confused - words. It seemed to her that while he was speaking he was torn by emotions and desires that didn't make sense to him yet. And yet somehow she could relate. "Wait... if you are not real... and then you devoured me... would you have actually devoured me, or would I just think you devoured me? If you aren't real, and you eat me, I'm pretty sure it'd feel real, but is it?" her primary desire right now is not payment, she just wants to understand although Ajana's body and subconscious might have other desires, too. Armaleos He couldn't resist, he couldn't walk away. Something was hypnotizing Armaleos, something in her scent and it wasn't fear. So he kept on approaching slowly, his tail brushing the floor left and right in a calm pace. "That's the thing. I don't even understand my own body. When I eat something, it looks so real if I don't stop it in time, it becomes real. If I decided to devour you, I would have to stop before you pass away or you'll be gone for good. So my illusion will feel like reality unless I stop it and leave the 'real' reality take back its place before it's changed forever." explained the dragon, before realizing. "W-wait! Don't get me wrong, I-I don't want to eat you! I mean, I kinda want to but... oh god that's it, I feared that I would like it too much..." It seems the poor beast was really fighting against his distorted desires, clearly displaying his hunger with a tiny bit of drool oozing from a corner of his mouth. As he predicted, this little game was starting to become a twisted craving he was almost unable to control. He wanted it. No, he needed it. He needed her body just for himself even if he shouldn't. But it was only natural and even if it was looking like a murder to him, it was simply the rule for any creature living in this unforgiving environment: eat or be eaten. Ajana (feral deer) Ajana tilts her head... "So... that bird you ate, it's gone for goodnow? But if you ate half of me,andvthennleft, I'd be back, good as new? Almost,as if it never happened?" The fear eater was fighting against the urge to eat the deer, but the deer saw an opportunity...being eaten ... without dieing from it... oh if nit for her screwed hidden desires, she should flee, but she xan't Armaleos "That bird I ate?" He stopped and let out a bit of silence, trying to rewind the scenes. "Oh my god I did ate that bird! And I chewed it a bit too!" The small dragon sat down on his hind legs and looked down at his own white scaled belly. "I'm... pretty sure it is gone for good now I don't feel anything." He lifted a hand a pushed on his tummy just to reveal how squishy and elastic it was, able to sink his fingers to try in touching his stomach. He looked at her again. "I could eat only half of you and stop the illusion before it's too late, but the pain will stay for quite some time and I'm not sure I'll be able to stop myself once I started." Armaleos put his hand back down and kept staring at her with those demonic red eyes. "I won't be able to eat all of you anyways I think so... Maybe I can try to be gentle?" asked the dragon, desperate to taste the deer's flesh. But he was starting to notice her panting wasn't only due to the chase. "Do you have something in your mind?" Ajana (feral deer) Ajana bit her lips, slightly unsure if she should go through with that crazy idea, slightly unsure if even telling him was a good idea. "I... I'm having these dreams. Terrifying dreams, horrible dreams, of large, terrifying, strong predators...." a shiver run through her "mercilessly ... descending on me, and.... and feasting.... taking me as nothing but a tasty snack..." she gulped "When I was a little fawn I'd wake from these dreams, shaking, terrified, crying... but... when I got older... I started waking wet... and needy... I could" her blush is overwhelming - her arousal, too "I couldn't think of fangs and claws and... and horns and scales... without feeling this need... and I couldn't get.... get off... without thinking of claws and fangs anymore... it's just a fantasy, but.... but..." she takes a deep breath "I want you to feast on me.... Take me... just.... just don't kill me. Don't strangle me, don't rip my heart out, but ..." instead of telling him what to do, she dropped on the floor and spread her back legs, exposing her sensitive soft underbelly, her udder, right where a hunter would make a cut to field dress his kill. Or a hungry predator would sink it's fangs in to start feasting on the most juicy parts, those that spoil first... "feast.... I'm your feast...." she spoke trembling... Armaleos That was just what he needed to make his guilt go away, his eyes widening and glowing more intensely. He licked his lips, making the building drool escape proving how eager he was to eat her. He stood up and approached, putting his two clawed hands onto her. He wasn't laying all his wait but she could tell Armaleos was one heavy dragon despite his size. He looked at her one last time, just in case it would be a goodbye, unable to formulate a 'thanks'. He looked back at the soft parts of her body, feeling he could shred Ajana apart with just his claws. He licked his lips one last time before opening his threatening maw wide, displaying all those sturdy and sharp teeth in a yawn, perfectly capable to snatch a limb out of you just by looking at it. The starving reptile didn't wait long before lunging his jaws at her underbelly, sinking his fangs through to thin layer of fur and skin and braking a rib at the force. It started, the beast trying to rip apart a first patch of skin by biting harder, slowly pulling out the deer's skin by pushing on her body with his arms. Ajana (feral deer) Ajana started to hyperventilate, shivers running through her as she felt his touch. A little moan escaped her, as his claws held her in place and his maw opened. But she didn't shy away, if at all she exposed herself even more, such a tasty little morsel, so willing. And then she felt his teeth. Instinctively her muscles tensed, but they were no match for the fangs, only maybe made her a bit more chewy or maybe a bit easier to bite into. Her legs stretched at the pain, her back arching, and a long, needy, painful bleat escaped her, but she still made sure not to push against him, not to deny him his meal, even though at that point it would not have mattered. She was being bitten into, but the bite was not taken out of her yet, she was still stuck between his jaws, her flesh pierced but not yet torn, except for the damage one broken rip had done. She closed her eyes for a second, then opened them wide and stared at his fangs, at her own belly, the fantasy finally real, not just in her head behind closed eyes but for real. Or not. It was only an illusion, she knew that, in the back of her head she knew that it wasn't real but it felt real and she wanted it to feel real. She was happy that the fact this was an illusion didn't dillute the sensation one bit. The pain was real, it felt real, and yet, she was so wet. She wondered when he'd sink his fangs into her privates, bite into her needy nethers and steel them away, wetness and all... and another moan escaped her, and her flesh shivered and shuddered in his fangs. Armaleos SNARCH!! In one wide movement of the neck, he ripped off a good part of her protection, his claws sinking deeper inside, piercing through her hide. It was like opening a treasure cache, blood spilling everywhere like a fountain, pumped by a heart he couldn't see but imagine, still protected behind bones and skin. He had access to her stomach, parts of her intestines an lungs, but it was all still well protected by the rib cage, meat and fat of the deer. All that suffering aroused the cruel beast, his male organ starting to peek out from its genital slit. This prey was his, growling a predatory purr and thinking of using her as he pleases. Armaleos changed position, from her mutilated side to her rear, look at this wet and delicious pussy she had. It made his penis erect more, tickling the entrance of her female hole. He was also safer her, ensuring the legs wouldn't hit him while devouring her alive. He grabbed on a rib with a hand, another clinging on through her leather before thrusting his way inside, violating who was previously his teacher, now only toy for this dragon to enjoy his life. Ajana (feral deer) Ajana screamed, but the scream was cut short as her lungs were exposed and the desperate compression of her muscles on her rib cage only exposed them more, pushing the pink delicate flesh out of the giant, ragged, bleeding hole he had ripped into her, where before there had been pristine soft belly fur. Wide eyed she stared at her exposed insides, some of them spilling, some of them moving inside her with her own motions, some of them ripped violently with his ripping motion that took away her skin and belly muscles alike, exposing her very core. Her mouth was wide open, and one couldn't tell if for a desperate scream, pleads or a needy moan or all of the above. But her pussy was definitely needy. Her udder still mostly untouched, as he had torn her open higher above that most soft and delicious part, keeping it and the delicious treat between her legs for later. Her legs kicked, but she still did not fight, no force was needed to force himself upon her, instead she arched, trembling - torn open yet so alive... She closed her eyes as his massive dragon cock took her, forced his way inside her, displacing her inner organs to the point it made more spillage out of her torn belly and exposed slippery smooth organs, her kidneys maybe, or her liver. She didn't know what it was. But she could feel herself getting stuffed with his member as her nethers themselves couldn't take his girth and ripped, almost as if giving birth but in reverse, bleeding, yet feeling so much bliss. She rocked, silently, unable to breath, hoping she would last, wouldn't fall unconscious. Once because she did not want to die, twice, because she did not want to miss one second of her ordeal. This was her deepest most depraved fantasy, and she wanted to live it, wanted to feel it all. Real or not. Deadly or not, she wanted this. Armaleos Delighted by all the sensations, his shaft violating her privates, warmed by her wet insides, he started to rock his waist, using her without any consent for his own pleasure. His powerful arm managed to snap the rib it was grasping, tossing it away to allow his maw to enter. It was now time to feed, his deadly teeth closing on the elastic flesh of her stomach, huge spikes savoring the softness of the fresh meat, shewing and dragging it inside his maw with skillful motions of his tongue and jaws, synchronized and working together instinctively to get that treat as deep as he could inside. He turned his head a little for his sharp carnivore molars to cut the piece out of her system, doing it with one side of the stomach, then the other to finally detach it completely by pulling his head away from her murdered belly. She could see it all, the bloody organ slowly disappearing inside the dragon's maw, dragged toward his throat and creating a small bulge on its entrance, the muscles working to get it all ready for the trip down. A loud, muffled and wet glrk could be heard, the bulge falling down toward his chest and quickly disappearing. He licked his lips to clean the blood, gulping once more while continuously thrusting in and out her tight pussy, forced to stretch by the size of his shaft, pushing deeper than he should and starting to tear it apart. Armaleos could feel all her muscles flex, in fact, he could even see some of them, twisting by the torturous pain. Maybe it should be his next target, organs are great but doesn't make for a meaty and satisfying meal. Ajana (feral deer) Ajana stared, barely able to believe what she saw, despite the pain, despite feeling the sharp sensation of her breaking bones or his jaws, taking in her very stomach. She could tell by the small amount of plant matter that was pressed up back into her mouth by his forceful handling of her stomach, and finally by the metallic taste of blood that welled up her food pipe as her rumen disappeared within him with a sickening sensation of loss and emptyness inside her, leaving only the throbbing sensation of a severed esophagus where her hungry stomach had been. All the while her hip was pounded by his urge for pleasure, mercilessly filling her beyond capacity, shoving guts out of the hole in her, that spilled wetly between them, soiling her fur and his scales in red, And his hunger was far from over, she had more to give, even though she was unsure how much longer she could take it. Her lungs burned, she wanted to breathe, her chest heaving despite the pain, but so little air made it out and back in. She squirmed, hoping he would get the hint hoping he would shove his claws into her and just squeeze her lungs to let her exhale and inhale again. But she could not speak, only plead with her eyes and open mouth and a trembling, heaving chest that could not give her breath. She did not want to suffocate, she did not want to pass out, even if it would have given merciful relief from the pain. But she couldn't miss this. Not now. Never! It'd be her end if she did Armaleos Something in the dragon was tickling him and seeing these lungs barely moving was what gave him this sensation. He didn't want to stop now, this muscle was almost calling his name, but he didn't want to go too far either. He can't read in minds, but the something asked him to squeeze these large lungs of hers, stained by the blood spilling from her detached organ and flesh. The scaled monster slid a hand under her skin and felt the poor muscle struggling to pump any air. Looking straight at Ajana, he pressed on it, giving her some sort of internal gory massage, seeing that blood gurgling out her mouth. He had to be quick, turning his head to the abdominal muscle he spotted earlier and licked his lips, opening his maw wide before biting on it savagely. He was now doing three task in extreme dexterousness: chewing that succulent piece of meat he was enjoying to chew away, pumping air for the deer to keep her alive and building himself to orgasm, his dick continuing to rape the poor creature with an increasing intensity. Armaleos was moaning terrific predatory growls of delight, snatching a chunk of that muscle and enjoying munching on the venison's incredible flesh flavors. He was loving every bites he was taking, struggling to swallow down the piece with the climax slowly approaching. Although, it seems the reptile didn't forget his promise, able to keep his frenzy away from taking control. His eyes locked on her again, the eyes of a starving feral beast asking for more. Fortunately for Ajana, it wasn't what wanted to express the small dragon, even with this gluttonous GLRK sending away her own muscle before her very eyes. Ajana (feral deer) Ajana was shivering, desperate for some fresh air in her lungs - instead, but unavoidably, what little air was left was squeezed out. A wheeze escaped her, a moan, a bleat full of lust and pain, combined with a gurgling noise as the blood that had accumulated in her throat was pushed out of her mouth. She wanted to cough and force the rest out but she couldn't. Instead, he stopped pushing and her lungs inflated again - filling, with a gasping sound - filling, with so much cold, delicious air, making her almost dizzy with sudden clarity. The pain - muted from the lack of oxygen was suddenly very real again, her ears were ringing, but once again the air was pushed out of her - this time without blood, this time with a moan that she meant, that she arched into, speaking to him, telling him of her agony and pleasure both. Agony mostly because at this time his fangs dug into her muscles in her flanks, deep inside her, and ate her. Ripping the very meat out of her. He was taking bites out of her. She was - literally food. And she could feel it. It was horrible. It was wonderful. It was her worst nightmare and her wildest dream come true. And it wasn't real. She still knew, somewhere in the back of her head that this was somehow an illusion, just like the predator that was eating her. Yet it was still real. It was confusing, she was confused. She spread her legs further, exposed herself, being both the plate and the dish at the same time, offering him her flesh, anticipating his next bite. And the next. Moaning, whenever his paw allowed her to moan by helping her to exhale. Even her breath and her vocie was at his mercy. Armaleos Clearly, this was one of the best meal he ever had - if we can even call it a meal, - her flesh sliding down his throat, her delicious warm blood cascading from his maw, the smell, her cries, the scene... He was a dragon. A real dragon! He was devouring a deer like if he had to sustain, biting on feeding on organs and muscles, spreading the taste on his tongue just to enjoy swallowing it. His orgasm couldn't be refrained any longueur, his hands grabbed on her more tightly for his waist to give a last devastating blow, crushing the lung he was trying to help with a hand and tearing her skin apart with the other, roaring his moans as he finally released the pressure, filling her destroyed feminine hole with his warm and sterile seed, his abundant cum leaking from where it could: outside or deeper inside her shredded pussy. The demon's crouch gave some more hits to her rump before finally sliding out his dick from her, helping the goo escape. Now he was finally done, the illusory being really had to save her, crawling up and resting his squishy white and filled belly against her murdered body. There wasn't much bulge on his stomach at all, but the softness of his tummy made her able to feel her own flesh - and the softened bird - stewing inside. Approaching his lips to her ear, he placed his bloodied hand over deer's eyes, whispering. "Now close your eyes and relax. I can assure you nothing of that is true. Don't fall asleep but simply try to sleep." Strangely, his growl was soothing, sort of slow purr ringing from his throat, only a little ruined by a final wet gulp, getting rid of the life juice he still had inside his maw. His tail was giving gentle swings, going left then right peacefully while patiently waiting for her to breath again, leaving reality taking back it's place, at the verge of falling over its thrown at the dragon's actions. Ajana (feral deer) Ajana came as well, if one could even call it that. There was so little left of her, her destroyed midsection didn't even give enough support to arch, but her spine was intact and what was left of her pussy still attempted to clench. At the same time something in her broke and the massive dragon cock broke through her insides the moment it came - squirting a noticeable amount of seed all over her shredded bowels and out of the gaping gap inside her, squirting over her chest, covering her lungs, mixing with the blood into a pink-colored mess, white and red and swirling. Even her face got covered in both goop from deep inside her and cum. Silently shivering, her mouth agape, she stared at the hole, stared into her and at the throbbing cock that was visible there, among the shredded remains of what would have been the deer's reproduction organs. Her lungs had collapsed, ripped open and filling with blood, she didn't have much time left, but it was enough to share both the climax, in silent shivers, and the afterglow with her predator. He covered her eyes with his hands, and spoke in her ears, and at that moment she was happy and content. At that moment, maybe she would have not minded if he had continued feasting and she had just drifted into oblivion, knowing that all that was her was used to fill his belly. She could feel his belly, pressed against her, felt it filled and working idly on what she knew was her, inside there, even though she couldn't feel it. But his words reminded her that this was not the end, and she trusted him, tried to ignore the pain and the sensation of drifting away. This wasn't real, all she had to do was pretend it wasn't real... She was too dizzy to think straight, but she was calm. Her breath would have been slow if she had been able to breathe at all. Armaleos After a moment of silence, only contrasted by the slow carnivore's growl, she didn't feel anything changing much besides the cold from the forest's breeze stopping to tickle her insides. Ajana could feel herself slowly warming up, all the weight she lost slowly coming back to her. She could feel gravity pressing on belly or perhaps, he scales of the dragon laying on her against her fur. It was a really weird sensation, at the same time her brain was telling her she was all empty, but at the same time, her body was sending all the signals that everything was working just fine. She could feel the pain in her muscles, still feel his bites on her flesh but at the same time, everything felt alright. Armaleos removed his hand, backing his head a little so she could examine her own body. He still gave a concerned look, checking if his own mind was not tricked as well, but by focusing enough, he could force reality to toss away the possibility of her being partly devoured. He still had remnant images trying to convince him of what he had done, but the illusory beast stayed strong to avoid the calamity to come back up. It seems after all this horror show, Ajana was safe as if nothing happened, besides this pain still kicking in in her guts from time to time, just like if her mind was still unsure of what to think happened. Ajana (feral deer) Ajana took a deep breath, and then realized that she was capable of breathing on her own. Her eyes flung open, and shivering, she looked at herself. It was astonishing, not only was her body whole and untouched, there was also no trace of the blood and gore that had been around her just a second before. She looked at Armaleos with a happy, loving smile, the memory of being devoured alive still fresh. Then she noticed something and laughed. "Your belly.... it's still full!" she pointed out the bulge that she was quite sure she had her own meat in it. Or not, as it, too was an illusion. Armaleos Relieved, Armaleos gave a happy smiling sigh. "Phew, I'm glad you are alright, Ajana!" Now her mind has accepted nothing happened, it relieved the derg from the ghost apparitions that were trying to become real again. He looked down at his belly, a little bit amused. "Haha, I'm pretty sure there is only a bird in there! It might be your head messing with ya still! By the way, they pain should stick for a while but will eventually disappear, don't worry. And your guts shouldn't randomly splash on the ground if you don't think about it too much... I think." The small reptile got off her and sat down, looking at the beautiful deer still laying on the clean grass. Their was no blood, nowhere, not even inside his mouth and yet, he still could feel the aftertaste of her flesh, liking his lips like if there was still blood on it. Even his own mind was being tricked, making him think his belly was filled of venison, lips and teeth coated in drying vital fluid. He shook his head to get this idea away and gave a new warm smile. "Thank you so much! I'm really sorry for all this but, it made me feel so good! For a moment there, I felt like a real dragon and I can't thank you enough for this, really!" thanked the joyful lizard gratefully, still sneakily licking the corners of his mouth. Ajana (feral deer) Ajana surprised him by leaningnover and giving his cheek scales,an affectionate little lick "Thank you! That was.... " she had to search for words "Intense... I hadn't imagined it to hurt so much, but still.... it was my wildest dream come true and I'm still around to tell the story... It still hurts,a bit, even, but... I think thats just, phantom pain my head is making up. I almost still feel your...." she blushed "... in me... wow..." she closed her,eyes for a bit, dwelling in the memory, her deer pussy leaking a single drop of juice, although one couldn't tell if it was her own or Armaleos imaginary one... "When we do that again, you gotta eat me, back legs first, and then.my udder and my... " she bit her lips " my pussy... I gotta know what it feels like to have my girl bits devoured while I come... would you do that?" she asked in a tone that was both almost innocent, and a bit seductive Armaleos If the dragon's scales could blush, they totally would, a little bit charmed by the delicious deer. "I-uhm... I'm so sorry I... raped you... I let myself embrace my dream and couldn't resist the urge to abuse you. It's been so long too..." admitted Armaleos, still feeling a quite guilty about all this. He was now looking at her, with his wonderful eyes coming back to normal, those pixie irises piercing through her skull, sharp pupils of a predator devouring her just with its gaze. "To be honest, I wouldn't mind trying that again with you but... it's really dangerous. What if next time, I can't control myself? What if next time it's too late to save you? And this pain you must have felt, I don't understand why you want to live it again!" Because all that scene never happened in the reality that decided to stay, the dragon's seed was gone too from her body. Although, the orgasm she felt and her squirt seemed to have happened. The leak she felt from her womanhood was probably a remain or that. Or perhaps a new arousal? The the dragon looked pretty mighty even for his size, sitting down straight which made him four foot in height, his absurdly long tail tranquilly brushing the floor behind him. Ajana (feral deer) Ajana thought a bit more, snuggling "I trust you. You had yourself under control this time, if you start with my back legs it's gonna be even less dangerous if you don't open my chest this time. And well... the pain ... it would be nicer without the pain, sure. But it wouldn't feel real either. It's a much better illusion when it hurts. I think if there wasn't it would be too much like a dream. And I have those every night." She licks him again, then suddenly grins mischievously. "Hey, how about a sixty nine? I give you a lick, and you give me a lick, and when you get hungry, you take a bit more than a lick." The deer oogles at the dragon's mighty cock. Even if that too might not be real, it would still feel real to Armaleos as well as her Armaleos Once again, the adorable deer would have made the dragon blush! Even if the idea was really tempting, he looked at the sky and noticed the time it was. The sun was setting, night would soon came and his time to hunt dreams would shortly arrive. "Well, i-it's not that I don't want to! B-but as you know, I feed on fear from dreams. If I ever happen to feel even a small drop from you during our... affair, I would probably devour you again and this time, you wouldn't survive it I'm afraid." He let his big round shaped tongue peek out to lick Ajana back, offering her a warm smile. "But really, I loved it a lot! I can't hide I wouldn't mind doing that again sometime soon, maybe the morning so I have less risk to turn crazy because of my dream devourer instincts! And that... sixty nine you talked about... it's been so long I didn't have any sexual interaction I really wouldn't mind doing it..." said Armaleos, looking at his hind legs. His arousal retreated on its slit pretty much as soon as the scene was over, but he could see the tip of his penis saying hello to the world just thinking about it. "Well, I probably should go" declared the derg while standing back up on all four. "Thank you again! For everything! I hope you won't suffer from this ghost pain for long, and I hope to see you soon!" Ajana (feral deer) Ajana watched after him, long after he was gone. There wouldn't be any other clients that day, it was late. But she still felt that phantom pain, and she decided she'd keep that for a while, unwilling to let go of that sensation that lingered like a memory. She decided to cherish that memory, reliving the sensations in her head. There was no risk of her brain making it real again now, too many other impressions had come after it, among them the sensation of longing, as she watched him leave, so quick to disappear, as if he hadn't been there in the first place. She wondered if he could move instantly, if he moved where no one was watching, as he seemed to only exist in the perception of those he hunted in the first place. With no one watching but himself, he certainly wasn't bound to the laws of physics. But she knew he'd be back. The very pain in her abdomen, the aching of a broken rib that was never broken in the first place, the dull cold sensation of an abdomen, emptied of all its contents and spilled across the forest floor. She shivered slightly, and yet felt warm. Only after some time she reluctantly got up. As she moved, the actual sensations overrode the pain. Her brain expected the broken bone to sting, but the bone was not broken, and before long the pain was only a memory, just like the pleasure. But it was also a promise. She knew she'd let him hunt her again. Even if it was risky. It was still infinitely less risky than getting devoured for real. FIN
