This is set in a fantasy realm where magic and monsters exist, simply known as Ki-Rynn. The tempo will change, depending on the chapter, so there may be far more sexual exploits in one chapter, yet little in another. I hope you enjoy this story, as it is one I hope to write for many chapters. I will keep an album of the characters that are used as well so you can have a better visual of them. These will be linked in my profile. Other than that, sit back, relax, and enjoy! ************************* "I told you before hand, Andan. This would be a simple grab and go job. You are making it out to be far too technical!" The words of the redheaded swordsman were quick and harsh towards his goblin friend, who was struggling to keep quiet as the two slipped through the walls of the stronghold undetected, though Andan was lagging behind and already breathing hard due to fear. "My apologies, Alex...it's just that I am not used to being so quiet when I attempt to steal things." The goblin was used to smashing anything he wanted and reaping the benefits that way. His ways made Alex disgusted. "And that is why I had to bust you out of your confines from your last endeavor, my green friend. Now, keep quiet. We are almost to the building where they store their treasures." Alex hushed his partner in crime as the two used the darkness to their advantage. Alexander Drake was a mid-20s swordsman, widely considered to be one of the best in the land of Ki-Rynn. A gifted fighter that men were jealous of and women found difficult to resist with his good looks and charm, the former soldier of Silivakia had shunned his country after a disagreement and turned to the other side of justice, often stealing and looting from armies and dignitaries for his own personal gain. He had no conscience about this, as he knew that royalty in most countries was quite prudish and deserved to be looted. Alex stood at about six feet two inches tall, weight just under 200 pounds with a fair complexion, reddish-brown hair that was stringy and held up by a familiar white headband most of the time. He was toned and very athletic, and the ladies that knew of him whispered about other impressive assets that he had. He was not afraid to bed women. As a matter of fact, it was his favorite thing to do when he wasn't making himself richer. The two males managed to slip into the largest building undetected, coming around a corner and knocking out one guard with a sleeping spell cast by the goblin. Alex knew magic better than the goblin, but he felt that he needed to pull his weight better. "Go to sleep, soldier...you will never know what hit you." Andan spoke as Alex made his way past the fallen soldier and into the vault. "Jackpot. Look at this stash!" Alex commented as he found himself staring at a room full of gold coins and various treasures. "It makes me wish we had brought bigger sacks, Alex!" Andan was far too excited. He knew that teaming up with a human could be considered somewhat blasphemous by his own kind, but he also knew that he would get rich if he did so. Alex had already begun to stuff his pockets and pouches with gold, opening up his long trenchcoat and filling up his interior pockets. Andan was doing much of the same, though he had brought one big pouch, which Alex had advised him not to do, as it would be much louder and tougher to get out of the stronghold. "Alright, give it another minute or two and then we leave. The other soldiers will begin their rounds in roughly three to four minutes." Alex said as he finished up packing himself. He could still move fairly well, and he had more than enough from this to last him quite some time. "No, not yet! I have yet to begin to line my pockets with gold!" Andan was getting greedy, and was too busy shoving what he could into the large bag to listen to his comrade. "Andan, if you do not stop, we are going to be discovered, and these men will take you somewhere that even I cannot save you from!" Alex would not wait for the goblin if it came to it. He began to count backwards from ten, watching the greedy goblin pack in the coins. When he reached zero, he moved back to the exit. "Let's go! Now! I have no qualms about leaving you behind, goblin!" Alex's voice was stern. The goblin looked back at him and waved him away. "Leave me! I will just cast more spells on them!" Andan's voice was rushed as he continued to grab everything possible. "Fine. You will find out just what happens when you rob royalty and are caught in the process!" Alex left the goblin behind, slipping out the opposite way that they came in to a side exit that he had spotted upon entering the stronghold. Within a minute, he was out and already through the wall again, replacing the hole that he had left with the goblin. As soon as he did so, he heard shouts. "A GOBLIN IS LOOTING THE ROYAL TREASURY!!!" The sounds that followed were one of battle, although it did not last long. Alex knew that his partner would not survive the onslaught, and while he did take a moment to feel badly for the goblin, he knew full well that he would be in the same spot had he not left when he did. "Greedy race, those goblins. Oh well. I believe I have overstayed my own welcome here." Alex spoke to himself as he darted into the thick forest, the moonlight covering the area. It was a short hike to where he had stowed their horses. He undid the smaller horse that Andan had come in on and shooed it away to run into the forest. His own horse, Thor, would wait patiently as his owner undid his tie and climbed aboard. "Let us go, Thor. I believe that we have earned ourselves some rest and recreation, no?" Alex spoke to his steed, who whinnied and began to gallop away from the stronghold. It was the perfect crime for him. He made out with plenty of gold and jewels while the soldiers believed that they stopped a goblin from robbing them. No one would suspect a thing. ************************* Alex rode Thor for a good hour until he slowed them down, realizing that they were a bit lost. It was difficult traveling in the Shi'lor Highlands, considering it was home to the thickest forest that there ever was. The good thing, though, was that it was not hostile territory. Shi'lor was home to primarily humans and wood elves, who got along quite well in their surroundings. There were only scattered reports of orcs and drow, but you would never see them out in populated areas. As he and his steed turned down another path, they came to a clearing, much to Alex's surprise. There was a beautiful lake, one that was incredibly clear. It seemed to be a hot springs of sorts, as steam rose out of it from various places. Off in the distance, he could spy the figure of a woman, though it was far enough that he could not tell anything about the woman. He rode Thor to a walk as they moved along the shoreline, getting closer to the woman and getting Alex excited, realizing that this woman was very, very attractive. "Good evening, my dear Alexander." Alex stopped Thor as the voice called out. It was the most beautiful voice he had ever heard, one that was incredible soothing to just hear. "How...do you know my name, mi'lady?" While Alex was considered a womanizer, he did show respect when it was necessary. "I know you because you are a follower of mine. Of all the things that you have abandoned in your life, you certainly kept yourself true to my teachings." Alex's gaze narrowed, then widened a bit as he realized that he was face to face with the Goddess of Lust, Celeste. "My Goddess, Celeste?" "Indeed, my young follower. I have decided to show myself to you." Alex knew that this was a very rare occurrence. According to the teachings, Celeste only showed herself for a few reasons, the most prominent of these reasons were to charge someone with a quest, to scorn someone who attempted to destroy her name and teachings, or to reward a faithful follower. "My dear Celeste...what is the reason that you have come before me? Why am I honored with your presence?" Alex dismounted his steed, a little excited as he realized that the beautiful brunette was wearing nothing except for a see through gown, which may as well have not been there. The buxom brunette had the body fit for a goddess, and she was slowly walking over to the red-haired thief, a look of lust engrained into her eyes. "I am here....to give you a quest." Alex was actually a little disappointed, hoping that he had done something to earn a reward from the most beautiful woman he had ever laid eyes on. Still, the goddess was not going to upset her follower without giving him something to work for, standing right in front of him and placing her slender hand on the bulge that had rather quickly formed in his pants, rubbing up and down slowly. "...W-what is my quest, my Goddess?" His words tapered off slightly as he felt her rubbing the bulge that grew in his pants, knowing that he was quite impressive down in his trousers. "I believe that there are those out there that think I am not the most beautiful female entity in Ki-Rynn. There are those that attempt to slander my teachings, and while I believe that I could take care of this myself, I think that a young man such as yourself is far better suited for this." Celeste's words were soothing in his ear and very clear, although his breathing was picking up as she continued to rub his bulge, pressing her large breasts against him very slightly. He wanted to touch her, but the teachings were strict: Do not touch her unless it is deemed permissible by Her. "...ohh....And who are these people..." He was having trouble focusing, but he was enjoying the moment. The deity then produced a piece of paper out of thin air that contained a list, which she slipped inside his trenchcoat. "That list is of ten women whom you must bed. I know this is not a problem for you, but some will prove to be a challenge. Each of them have done something that is against my own teachings and, for this, I believe that there is no greater humility than to have one of my loyal followers bed them and then leave my mark on them." The goddess had now reached into his trousers and was jerking on his hard cock, which was throbbing in her smooth, slender hand. His breathing had picked up once again as she fished out the length of his member through the opening in his trousers. "...this feels so good, mi'lady....h-how do I leave your mark...on them...?" Celeste smiled and took her free hand, grasping his tightly and causing a light to shine brightly. "I have left my mark in your right hand. All you have to do is, after bedding one of these women, place your hand on them and they will forever be marked. If you bed all of these women, I will provide you with a reward that I have never bestowed upon a single follower, but I cannot tell you what that is." Her jerking sped up, and she could tell that her loyal follower was getting close to an orgasm, which made her smile. Alex said nothing, his hands at his side, only feeling one hand on his right hand and the other swiftly stroking his cock. "You are showing the true willpower of a loyal follower by not touching me, Alex. This is why I have chosen you for this quest." And with those words, she jerked him as fast as she could and dropped to her knees as he exploded with a load of cum, covering her in his hot, sticky cum. She smiled as she removed her hand from his cock once he finished, standing up and allowing him to lean against her as he recovered, wrapping an arm around him. "T-Thank you, my Goddess....for this...and for the opportunity to please you by completing this quest." He said to the gorgeous deity. She did not speak back to him. She simply stepped back from the young traveler and then faded into thin air, blowing a kiss at him as she did. He turned back to Thor, who had stayed put during the quick encounter, and figured this would be a good place to rest up for the night. After all, receiving a handjob from the Goddess of his teachings required him to sleep on it right then and there. There was no way he could travel after that. ************************* Several hours passed, and it was now in the wee hours of the morning, though still before sunrise in Shi'Lor, which was notorious for having shortened days due to the location in the world that it was in. Alex had fallen asleep next to the beautiful hot springs while Thor had also fallen asleep, finding a small meadow to rest in. The two of them were not alone, however, as a stealthy figure was moving through the thick forest that surrounded the area. A purple haired wood elf had spied the human from afar much earlier in the evening, but knew that a powerful deity was nearby and she could not reveal herself to such a being. The female elf was making her way slowly towards the hot springs, wondering if she would find any treasures that were worth taking or, perhaps, a handsome young man to pounce upon. You see, what Alex did not know about this particular section of the Shi'Lor Highlands was that it was inhabited by a gorgeous wood elf by the name of Faelina. The locals knew of her, though it seemed that she only made herself available to those that were not of this area, leaving a bit of a mystique about her that allowed her name to travel throughout the world, yet no one really knew where she lived. Many suggested that the elven beauty simply did not have a physical home and that the forest itself was her shelter. Her attire, if you could call it that, was a very skimpy brown outfit that practically blended in with her tanned complexion. Her bronze eyes shone with intelligence and lust. Alex stirred a bit as Faelina accidentally stepped on a branch in the nearby forest, though he barely moved from his deep sleep. Faelina grinned to herself as she very slowly strolled out of the treeline, walking up to the man that slept on the soft grass. She leaned down to see that he was a very handsome human....and that was the only thought she got as she found a knife pointed at her as he woke up. His eyes met with hers, but the grin on her face did not change. "My...you humans are easily startled, aren't you?" The soft words escaped the lips of the elf, causing Alex to pull back the knife and actually look at this woman up and down a bit. "My apologies...but you cannot blame me as I am in unfamiliar surroundings." Alex sat up, shaking the sleepiness off as the elven woman stepped back to allow him to do so. "It is understandable, yes." It finally occurred to Alex that this elven woman was actually speaking to him in very fluent Common, the language named by the humans. While it wasn't a rarity for him to come across elves that knew their language, it usually meant that they were educated in some way. "You speak my language very well, especially given that you are a wood elf." Alex commented, wondering if he was being offensive to the gorgeous elf. "Thank you. I was abandoned at a very young age and was raised by humans, although I returned to the forest many years ago." Elves, of course, had a much longer lifespan than humans did, so the ones that raised her could very well be long dead and she could be 200 years old, yet still look as though she were in her twenties in human years. "If you do not mind me asking....what is your name?" "Faelina. And you are...?" "Alexander. Alexander Drake. You may call me Alex, if you so wish." His words were quiet, seeing as how he was still trying to wake up. "It is a pleasure to meet your acquaintance, Alex. I saw you much earlier in the evening, but I felt it would be rude of me to interrupt you speaking with someone as powerful as the entity that I sensed." She was, of course, referring to Celeste making her presence known to Alex. "Ah...yes, I appreciate you not appearing. That could have ended quite badly if you had shown up." Though, he wouldn't have minded seeing both of them, considering that the goddess was giving him a handjob in the process. "It seemed as though she gave you something. Is it important and secret?" Alex had forgotten all about the list, actually having chalked up the encounter as a vivid dream. He reached into his trenchcoat and pulled out the list that the deity had given him. She had said nothing about keeping the list secret, so he thought nothing of pulling it out. "It is a list of ten names, all females. Do you know any of these women?" He offered the list to her, knowing that the area he was in was not a familiar one. The wood elf actually nodded quite quickly at a few of them. "Actually, I know most of these women. Most are royalty, either being princesses or even queens. A couple of them are in the kingdom not too far from here, Alex. Some, however, I do not know or are very far away. It may require some heavy traveling." He smiled at the wood elf as he eyed her up and down. She was gorgeous. Her complexion was dark with smooth skin and a large pair of perky breasts that were defying gravity. Her outfit did little to leave anything to the imagination, covering just enough of her body to get by. "I cannot thank you enough, Faelina. You have been quite a bit of help for me, and I hadn't even expected it from such a gorgeous elven woman such as yourself." He grinned at the beautiful woman as he put the list back into his coat. "It is no problem, though I must admit...I did watch a little more than I should have earlier in the evening. You seemed to enjoy the attention that you received from that powerful entity, and she seemed to enjoy something that you had quite well." Before Alex could respond, her hand was rubbing against his pants, going up and down quite slowly, letting her touch begin to work him up to get him hard. He grinned at the sexy elf, his eyes wandering over her body as he felt her rubbing his growing shaft in his pants. "It certainly seems that you like it too, judging from your hand..." She grinned at him...and then pulled it away, winking to him as she stepped back. "At some point, I believe I will enjoy it myself. Just be sure to stay in the area and I will find you again, but not this morning, my dear Alexander. I wish you well in your quest!" What a tease....she disappeared into the forest just as quickly as she had gotten him hard. He shook his head, but grinned to himself as the beautiful elf disappeared fully from his view. At that point, there was no possible way he could go back to sleep. He wandered over to Thor, who had aroused from his own sleep, and mounted up, kicking him into gear quickly and finding the path that they had taken into the hot springs, turning differently and, within a half an hour, found themselves in a large city that sat at the base of a castle. He slowed his horse down and dismounted at the stable at the outskirts of town, kicking a couple of extra gold coins to the young boy who took him from him, then asking where he could go if he needed to purchase things, including information. "That's easy, mister! Go to the Oaken Bucket Inn! Everyone goes there here in Vilmire!" Vilmire. That must have been the town, he thought to himself. He smiled and threw him another coin before walking into town, carrying just a small satchel with him as he looked around. It was early in the morning, so there was little activity. He figured he would find what he was looking for at the place the boy had directed him to. Eventually, he found his way to the Oaken Bucket, a very large tavern and inn on the western side of the city that he was in, which, he actually did not know the city name off the top of his head. Walking into the tavern portion of the building, there seemed to be an all night party wrapping up. Several men and women, both humans and elves, were still in there drinking, though some seemed tired since, while the sun had yet to rise, it was obvious that weariness was setting in on most of them. Taking a seat at the bar, he raised a single finger to the bartender, who poured a mug of ale and slid it to him. Alex left a couple of coins on the bar top for him as he glanced around. Exploits of Alex Drake Ch. 01 "Not from around here, are you son?" The bartender spoke to him. "No. Just passing through, for the most part. It looks like there was a hell of a party going on in here." "Indeed. Usually happens on the weekends. Everyone forgets their troubles and comes in here to drink and enjoy themselves. Pretty cordial and usually ends up with new relations, even if just for a night." Alex looked at the bartender, then glanced to the opposite side of the room where a couple of human/elven couples were making out as far as they could take it without going that last step. It certainly was a far cry from many other places in the world. "Looks like relations between the races is doing just fine. If you don't mind, I'd like some privacy." The bartender nodded to the newcomer and left him be. Alex reached into his coat and pulled out the list that had been given to him by the goddess just a few hours prior. There were a few names that he recognized on the list, but only four of them out of the ten. Lirana Augusta was the first one he recognized. She was a princess in the kingdom of Crystania to the north, roughly two days ride on a horse. Telenna Galathir was royalty amongst the dark elves, though her exact whereabouts was something that he had no clue of where to begin his search except on the outskirts of the realm where they resided. Silvara Vanviel was Queen of Ereschel, the wood elf kingdom that hugged the eastern seaboard of the continent. Getting to her would be incredibly difficult as it was one of the toughest realms to gain access to as a human. Usually, it required special permission. Lisa Ruel was the last name he recognized on the list. She was a cleric high up in the Great Mountains to the north, though that was well past most every settlement. He went through the rest of the names after that, none of which rang a bell. Serah Corwen, Traci Haeos, Nessa Tirowen, Valasca and Antianara Galleon, and Terra Koryinth. He would have to do some research on all of these women in order to figure out where to look for them, but he figured it might be easier to start with one of the names that he actually knew. Of the four, Lirana was probably the easiest to actually find, but might be a bit difficult considering she was high royalty. Telenna, being a Dark Elf, would take some careful planning to go into Dark Elf territory, especially since to get to that portion of the world would require coming dangerously close to the area where Drow had been spotted, presenting an entirely different problem. Silvara was easy enough to find, just like Lirana, but getting into Ereschel would be impossible without some help. Lisa, of course, was also pretty easy to find, but the farthest trip. "I guess I'll just have to do some hunting in this town. It's as good as any." The bartender overheard Alex talking to himself and poured him another drink. "Having some problems, stranger?" Alex looked up at the bartender and, figuring that it wouldn't hurt to ask, showed the list to the man. "Know any of these women?" The bartender took the list and glanced over the names, nodding his head to a couple of them but seemingly clueless on others. "I know of Serah Corwen and Silvara Vanviel. Goddess Serah can be found up near Crystania on the outskirts at her place of worship, though I often wonder if she's actually a Goddess as she claims. Silvara Vanviel is the Queen of the kingdom off east of here, about half a day's travel. You might get lucky and actually be spotted by her entourage in this town." Alex raised an eyebrow at the man, curious as to what he meant. "What do you mean by her entourage?" "Well, rumor has it that Queen Silvara likes to slip out of her kingdom and find suitable mates from races that aren't her own. It's impossible to miss her: six feet tall, tanned complexion, emerald eyes, white-silver hair, and a body of a goddess. It won't be here you'll see, though. You'd probably run into her guards and receive the special invite that men talk about." Alex was now intrigued enough to continue prodding. "So, you're telling me that the leader of Ereschel, who has banned every race from her kingdom, likes to have affairs with humans?" "Not just humans, newcomer. Humans, dark elves, goblins, hell she'll even go for a drow if it doesn't want to kill her. I guess it's just her thing." Alex took a sip from his drink as a few patrons came into the tavern in dark garb, bearing some foreign insignias. The bartender glanced over and actually paused. "Actually....it's strange that we're talking about this, because that insignia is of Ereschel. I wonder..." "Quiet...just watch them." Alex instinctively had his free hand on his sword as if there was danger, though the patrons were completely covered by their dark purple robes. It was impossible to tell who or what they were. They slowly walked around the room as if they were searching for something. Alex took a drink from his glass as he eyed them carefully, wondering if there was about to be trouble. As they circled back around, they stopped at Alex and the bartender. "Ci shor mer si cel ber tholi." The one spoke to the other, obviously in the elven language. "Excuse me, but if you are going to speak in my tavern, you will speak in common." The bartender obviously had dealt with this in the past. The two mystery beings said nothing. One of them finally extended out a small trinket and handed it to Alex. Cautiously, the human took it from this person. "And what do I do with this?" Alex's tone was obviously a bit of annoyance, but curiosity as well. "...Go to Ereschel, human." With that, the two beings casually left as if nothing had ever happened. Alex examined the trinket and found that it was of the royal crest of the kingdom of Ereschel. "It looks like you may have just found your luck, newcomer. That's your key into Ereschel." Alex grinned to himself and finished his drink, flipping a few coins onto the bartop. "Thanks for your help in this, barkeep." He gave a nod of respect and left the tavern almost immediately, making his way back to the stables to gather his horse. Whether or not this was what he thought it was, or if the rumors had been true, it still beat hunting around and talking to random people that may not even know what he was asking. With that, Alex rode off to the east, knowing it was not a short journey to his next destination. Exploits of Alex Drake Ch. 02 The second chapter of the exploits of our dear wandering warrior takes him towards the Kingdom of Ereschel, but getting inside the walls of the Elven Country proves to be far more difficult than he imagined and he must re-think his process...and gets help from an unexpected place. Please go to my profile to view the characters involved in the story! Enjoy Chapter Two! * Alex brought Thor from the fast gallop he had been riding him at to a slow trot once the forest thickened, meaning that he was most likely entering the land of the Wood Elves. Ereschel was a kingdom that required the utmost focus, for showing any type of hostility as another race would almost certainly be met with mystery arrows flying at you. The only thing going for him was the fact that he was alone. The stories that were spread throughout Ki-Rynn about this area were that you were safe if you were alone. It meant that you were usually just a lost traveler. While Ereschel was shut off to all races, it did not mean that the people were hostile. While Wood Elves and Humans got along in diplomatic affairs and could even be seen living amongst each other, this was not the case in Ereschel. No one truly knew the reason why Ereschel banned practically everyone that was not a Wood Elf, but the rumors had been passed around, from as little as a personal grudge between royal families all the way up to Dark Elves, Humans, and Drow, breaking in and stealing valuable treasures. For whatever the reason, Ereschel was impossible to get into without a damned good reason. Still, even the confident Alexander was a little nervous about what he was doing. He was traveling there on a random whim, simply because he had been handed a trinket. It could have been an elaborate prank being played on him, but his gut told him that this was legitimate. He was a bit paranoid that he was being watched as he neared the kingdom walls that had just come into visual range, but still a little ways off. Glances into the thick trees would show quick movements. Alex calmed himself and maintained his slow pace, even though it would take just a little longer to get to his destination. After another hour or so, Alex had come within view of the guards that stood outside of the great gates of Ereschel. Almost immediately, the guards in the two towers on either side raised their bows that were armed with deadly arrows, but relaxed when they saw it was a single traveler. There were four guards on foot in front of the gate, with one being the most armored, which meant a higher ranking soldier. "Car! Car!" Alex heard the words and, having learned basic Elven, knew that he was telling him to halt. Alex stopped and nodded to the guard, who eyed the human briefly. "Pai o mael aelael os common?" Only the last word stuck out to Alex, and he had to assume that the elf was asking him if he preferred elven or common as the language. "I only speak common." The human spoke freely. The guard nodded and lowered his weapon. "Understood. What brings you to Ereschel, traveler?" Alex reached into his pocket slowly, knowing he was under watchful eyes, and pulled out the trinket that had been given to him. The guard looked at the trinket and scoffed at it. "Where did you steal this from, human?" Alex's eyes narrowed at the elven soldier, who obviously had a problem with humans. It didn't surprise him, though, considering that Ereschel attempted to shut out everyone possible. "I did not steal it. It was given to me by two elves from Ereschel in a town to the west of here." The guard refused to believe him and waved him off, tossing the trinket back to him. "I believe you are lying, human. It would be best if you bypassed our Kingdom altogether before harm comes to you. Move along!" Alex glanced up at the towers. Two elves had now drawn their bows once again while the two on the ground on either side of the gate were taking more of a defensive position. Alex just laughed at the overly protective elven males. "And you of Ereschel wonder why other races want nothing to do with you...always looking for a fight." While Alex wanted to accommodate them with the fight they sought, it would do little good to him. He would probably take down the main guard before the towers gunned him down with arrows. After all, elves rarely, if ever, missed. Glancing on either side of the gates he noticed that the main path that had lead up to Ereschel split off and wrapped around the city. "Very well, I will move on." The guard nodded and moved back to the gate as Alex rode Thor at a brisk gallop north along the wall, eyeing it up and down for any kind of weaknesses or, perhaps, other routes to get in. It was to little avail, though, as he simply could not find any differences in the wall as he rode towards the corner. The main wall itself was incredibly large. He had to guess that the entire wall itself, not just the section he rode alongside of, was at least a quarter of a mile. It was rare to see such a thing nowadays, even with most castles being protected. The path that Alex rode along continued north even past the wall of Ereschel, but it went into the heaviest part of the forest. It became very difficult to ride Thor at anything faster than a trot and, with daylight starting to fade out, he figured it would be best to dismount and start to search for shelter. With both sides of the path incredibly thick with vegetation and trees, he was finding that he may very well have to settle for a spot along the path itself. Just as he was beginning to think that it was a good time to stop, he came across a small outpost with a few lanterns lit around it. It was bigger than a small house, but he figured it was better than nothing. The shelter itself did not look like a regular home that someone lived in. It didn't look to be much more than an outpost, perhaps a place for people to use freely as there were many of those throughout Ki-Rynn, at least in the friendlier areas. Convinced that this was his best option, he tied off Thor to the nearest tree he could find and walked up to the shelter, knocking on the solid oak door a few times. He looked around as he waited just a few moments to make sure no one was actually there. He was greeted by a door flying open....and a sword directly to his neck. With no time to react, Alex had fallen back onto the grass in front of the shelter, his hand going for his sword but not having a chance as a strong leg pinned his arm down. He would look up into the red eyes of a soldier....a Drow. "Vel'uss ph' dos?" Alex's look of fear was gone in a matter of moments as he realized that the voice was female. In the dim light, it was tough to see just what this person looked like. All he could see were those glowing red eyes and a faint few features. He had studied their language, however, long ago. Who are you? That's what she was asking. "Fridj natha traveler. Usstan hass'l dos nau jivviim!" (Just a traveler. I mean you no harm!) Those red eyes narrowed and, if Alex had more light to see, had caused this soldier to form a very curious look on her face. She, too, was well educated in the opposite language and knew common, but usually did not speak it as her kind did not appreciate it as a universal language. "Dos ph' s'gos ulu travel nindol revis a isto." (You are brave to travel this road at night.) Alex's eyes were starting to adjust to the night and could see her better. While he had come across several Drow in his travels and even fought with a couple of them as comrades, he tended to avoid them. This one, though....she seemed different, and not to mention she was actually attractive...at least with what he could see. "Usstan doerrus dal Ereschel. Usstan zhahus lorith whol shelter whol l' isto. Xun dos telanth rivvin?" (I came from Ereschel. I was looking for shelter for the night. Do you speak common?) The Drow was genuinely impressed with his knowledge of her race's language and raised her knee off of his arm, standing up and nodding. "Yes, I do. Arise...and do not make a sudden movement." The sword that was pointed at him was large, bulky, but could easily cut him in half if necessary. He was thankful for his time that he spent with the Drow. If he hadn't, he would surely be dead right now. "Thank you. My name is Alexander Drake. I am a traveler, as I said, and I am simply looking for shelter for the night. I had no idea that I was this close to Drow territory..." The Drow female was now acting a little differently. She had never seen a human at all, let alone a human male. She pulled the sword away from him and holstered it on her back. "If you know my language that well, then you should know that we Drow do not live above ground, except for a select number. This is an outpost set up by my people....and I am Riniel Roloval. Are you...human?" The question caught him off guard. Most Drow knew quite well what a human looked like, simply because they hated humans. Why was this one acting so differently? "Yes, I am human. I am aware of your people and their choice of living environment. I once worked alongside a couple of your people. Good men." Riniel eyed the red-haired male up and down and found herself strangely drawn to him. She was a bit of an oddity with her people. She hated Drow males. She felt that they were very ugly, bony, and simply not attractive. Other races intrigued her, so long as they were not elven. "I see. If you assure me that you do not come to this area with ill intentions, I will allow you to step inside of my outpost." "I am in debt to you, Riniel." As the two moved towards the outpost, Alex realized that this woman may very well be the most attractive Drow he had ever seen. While most Drow women were tall, slender, and had very few appealing features to males of other races, Riniel was quite different. Her skin was still purple, though more vibrant than usual. She had very feminine features to her face, which was very lovely on its own. However, the traveler could not help but admire this female's incredible bust. She sported one of the largest pairs of breasts he had ever seen, quite honestly, and her choice of armor did very little to hide them as all they did was wrap underneath them and cover up enough to cover her nipples. The bottom half was much of the same deal, with a leather thong being held by two strong straps around her very slender waist. Her thighs were fully exposed, except for two more leather straps, one of which sported a very large hunting blade. Besides the gloves and large shoulder pieces that she wore, the rest of her body was exposed, and it was a beautiful sight to him. The Drow soldier welcomed him into the shelter as she, too, was checking him out from time to time. She had been taught all of her life to hate the humans, but having never come across one; she never had the chance to truly develop that hatred. To her surprise, she found the human male very attractive. Closing and barricading the door behind him, she led him through a relatively empty building, which made sense when they got to the back of the outpost, finding a staircase that actually went into the ground. He had to remind himself that Drow lived below ground, and even with the shelter, this was nothing new. To his own surprise, he found that her accommodations were quite nice. The underground home was spacious, along with a very large, luxurious bed at the very back. "Orn'la dos kyon whol...I apologize...would you care for a drink, Alexander?" He smirked, knowing that it was probably hard for her to switch to common, even if she was fluent in it. "I would like one very much, yes." His eyes trailed up and down her body as he took a seat, admiring the features that she had. She was definitely strong, for she even had somewhat of a six-pack formed on her flat stomach. "So, tell me Alexander: You mentioned that you were coming from Ereschel, yet you are not a wood elf. If you had mentioned to that to just about any other soldier of my kind, you would have been hauled underground in shackles and not cordially like I have. Why is this?" Alex, knowing that Drow had their own Gods and Goddesses that they followed, would probably understand the story, but he kept it limited. "I have been charged with a quest by a Goddess. Part of the quest requires me to get into Ereschel." Riniel looked back at the human, actually catching him looking at her body. She did not mind it. After spending six months alone at her outpost, the company was nice, and it was far better to have an attractive male eyeing her up and down. "A Goddess' quest, you say? Tell me, which Goddess of yours came down to give this to you? I am a little familiar with your people and their beliefs." Alexander waited for her to come over with a glass of mysterious liquid in it, figuring it was a Drow concoction. He sipped the glass and found the taste to be quite enjoyable, laying back against the backrest of the cushy chair that he sat in. "Celeste, the Goddess of Lust and Beauty in the world is who visited me. She gave me a list of ten women...." Riniel stopped him, already curious as to what he was explaining. "The Goddess of Lust and Beauty? Alexander, what would she want you to do?" "...she wants me to bed each one and leave her mark on them." He held up his right palm, showing that his hand had a faint image of Celeste's mark. Riniel had actually seen the mark before and nodded. "I know of that mark. I have seen it when I am on my late night patrol, though I have never actually met a worshipper. You are actually the first human I have ever come in contact with." Now it made sense. Drow were never this friendly. Even if he had proven to be educated and knew of their language, a normal soldier would have still taken him into custody, as she made a mention of earlier. It was plain, dumb luck that she was the soldier standing guard. "I see. I pray that you have not let the stories of hatred between our kinds pervert your own thoughts?" Riniel gave a very slight smile and shook her head as she sipped on her own glass. "On the contrary. I know of the stories quite well, but I have never been involved in one. You see, I am quite young for my race. I must say, Alexander, if all humans were as attractive as you were, I would have to tell my people to stop fighting and create a treaty just to mate with your kind." Alex gave a hearty laugh. That was as good of a compliment as he had ever received from a Drow. The agreement he had between his old Drow comrades and himself was a shaky one at best. However, if he didn't know any better, this busty female Drow had just made a pass at him. On top of that, he was starting to have a warm feeling come over him. It was certainly not the small fire that burned in the room that they were in. "I am quite flattered by your words, Riniel. If I may say much of the same thing in return, you are very beautiful and attractive yourself." Riniel grinned and finished her drink just as Alex did the same. The grin was one of seduction as she slowly stood up from her chair and walked across. Alex was feeling a little strange, though in a good way as he watched her walk across to him. "I am glad you said that before the drink kicked in. You see, that drink that you and I both consumed is called Ssinssrigg Lu'vith..." "...Lust and sex." He finished her sentence before she could, which made her grin even further. The Drow female had not had sex in close to a year, and she was going to take zero chance of that continuing with such a handsome male in her private quarters. "You say you need to get into Ereschel? I can help with that....but I wanted to make sure I got something out of it as well." Riniel had now straddled his lap, getting comfortable as her legs were on either side of his, looking down at the red-haired male while her hands slowly ran up his body, feeling his toned chest. One hand eventually slipped down his body and grabbed his growing cock through the black material of his trousers. She liked what she felt, finding quite a large bulge, and it seemed to still be growing. "Tell me....have you ever wanted to enjoy the company of a Drow?" Alex's head was starting to spin as the drink took its effect. He wondered if he was going to pass out before anything even started, but right before he answered, he found his head completely clear....and he was very, very horny. "Not until I came across you, Riniel...do you want me to fuck you?" Fuck...or Vith, as it was known in her language. It was such a crude word, though she knew of it in his language. She knew its meaning and, for the first time, actually understood it and wanted it done. "Yes...usstan ssinssrin dos ulu vith uns'aa 'zil dubo 'zil dos shlu'ta, Alexander." (I want you to fuck me as hard as you can.) With his newfound clarity, his hands reached up and undid the clasps that held the small breastguards that she wore, letting her large mounds into full view. The Drow moaned softly as she felt the man's strong hands cup her breasts and squeeze them, eventually watching him lean forward and suck on them. Her nipples were a darker shade of purple, with large areolas and sensitive nipples. His tongue teased and licked at them as she moaned out in pleasure. One of her hands was wrapped around his neck while the other was fishing out his cock, finally undoing his trousers and opening them up enough to pull it out. She let her hand very slowly go from the base to the tip, her eyes widening at how long it was. "ol orn'la kluth dos zhahen velkresa folbol ves izznarg dal uns'aa." (It would seem you were hiding something very large from me.) It was a bit strange to have her speaking so seductively to him in her own language, but it turned him on even further. Indeed, he was hiding a long, thick cock in his pants from her. "Izznarg lu' ves halt, ussta ssin'urn Ilythiiri" (Large and very thick, my sexy Drow.) His teeth lightly clenched one of her nipples, causing a shudder to go throughout her body as she moaned out. She pulled him away from her breasts and kissed him deeply on his lips, her tongue sliding into her mouth as the concoction she poured for both of them was now coursing throughout their bodies fully. He was rock hard, throbbing against her body and she was very hot and wet. The mere thought of how taboo this was for her to be seducing a human only drove her further into a lust-filled craze. She would slide very slowly down his body, dismounting from his lap until she was on her knees in front of him, spreading his legs apart so she could slip in between them. Quickly, she yanked his trousers off of his body while he pulled off the rest, revealing his toned body to her. She found him far more attractive than any Drow male she had come into contact with, and she was going to make the most of the moment. She leaned forward between his legs and engulfed his long cock, bobbing her head up and down on the thick member almost immediately. Going slow was not fun to her. She wanted it fast, hard, and rough, and it seemed that the Human didn't mind that at all. "Ohhhhhh....Riniel....shlu'ta dos satiir lu'oh dubo Usstan tlun whol dos?" (Can you feel how hard I am for you?) She would nod to him briefly with his cock still in her mouth before resuming her torrid pace, jerking his cock roughly as she sucked on it, bobbing up and down while her grayish-silver hair bounced around. His hands grabbed the back of her head, pumping her head downwards harder as she groaned on his cock, gagging on it a bit but not stopping her wet, sloppy blowjob. Her free hand would trade off between playing with her own breasts and fingering herself, eventually unclasping the thong piece that she wore to have easier access. The busty Drow was in pure heaven sucking on his cock, finding it to be everything she wanted and then some. She would pop his cock out of her mouth, licking at the head of it teasingly as she looked up at him with those deep red eyes. Exploits of Alex Drake Ch. 02 "Xunus dos l'amith uns'aa sucking pholor dosst dubo usulii?" (Did you enjoy me sucking on your hard member?" Alex was taking a moment to recover, only able to nod to her after the maddening pace in which she sucked on his shaft. She was still stroking him, albeit very slowly and teasing, as much as she hated it....she could see it was driving him crazy. She would prop herself up a little higher on her knees and wrap her large, firm breasts around his thick cock, rubbing up and down slowly. "What do your people call this? I believe the term is....arlyurl vithi'in?" No translation needed there....he knew what she was doing even without hearing her words. He nodded to her as she bounced her large mounds harder around his throbbing cock, finding that it was very tough not to explode right there from the titfuck that she was giving him. Eventually, he had to take control or this was going to be over far faster than he wanted. He pulled her off of her knees and slammed her up against the wall across from them, kissing her deeply on her wet lips as he felt those huge breasts press against his chest. He wasted no time from there, reaching down to pull her legs off of the ground and wrap them around his waist, guiding his cock expertly into her tight pussy as they moaned out together. "Ohhhhhhhhhh.....dos ph' ji jatha'la!" (You are so big!) His thrusting was hard and fast immediately, returning the favor for the blowjob that she had given him just a few minute earlier. Her breasts bounced up and down roughly as he drove up into her, feeling her strong arms holding onto his shoulders and neck as she cried out in pleasure. No male had ever given her this amount of pleasure as she felt herself already drawing close to orgasm. His cock was pounding up inside of her as hard as he could drive inside of her. "Ohhhhhhh...Riniel....yesssss.....your pussy is so tight....my cock feels so good buried in you...." He was done talking in the Drow language. He was focused solely on fucking her and bringing her to an orgasm, which did not take much longer at the pace they were going. He felt her clamp down hard on his swollen cock and scream out with a loud, hard orgasm as he kept pumping up into her, feeling her nails dig into his back. She kissed him deeply as he slowed down, knowing that her body had just come close to going limp from the wave of lust that had just gone through her. "Ohhh.....ohhhhh....kri'sha uns'aa, Alex...qualla, kri'sha uns'aa." (Cover me....Please, cover me.) He kissed her deeply as he pulled her away from the wall, laying her flat on the gigantic bear skin rug that was spread in the far corner, her sweaty body glistening in the light the lanterns provided. He straddled her body and slipped his hard cock between her magnificent breasts, squeezing them together and pumping away, feeling her sucking and licking on the end of his cock as he pushed between them. His moans were filling the room as he leaned his head back while fucking her tits. He would not have to wait much longer to fulfill her wish as he pulled away and shot his huge load of cum all over her body, blasting her tits and face with his sticky load. "Ohhhhhhhhhhhh!!!! Riniel!!!!!" She immediately began rubbing the white sticky cum into her skin and licking her fingers clean, smiling up at him as she squirmed underneath the Human, eyeing him up and down as she laid there. He grinned down himself as he rubbed the head of his cock around her hard nipples, eventually dismounting her body and lying next to her, kissing her softly on her lips. "Mmmmmm....I had no idea Human men could be so fun...." He grinned at her, flicking his tongue at her lips. "It isn't too difficult when you're pleasing such a beautiful woman." Riniel smiled and let her hand roam down to his cock, stroking it very slowly, feeling that it was still hard. "Your quest...you seek out Silvara of Ereschel, do you not?" Alex nodded to her, figuring that she knew what kind of a quest this was. "As I had suspected. She is quite the elven whore, Alex. She gives out trinkets that her servants have to deem men worthy of her attention, yet they cannot get into the Kingdom. Only those who sneak in end up having her. She is searching for a suitable heir, but she is really only in it for the sex. If your mark on her is going to degrade her, then I will gladly show you how to get in without even stepping foot above ground." He knew that if anyone could show him an underground passage, it would be a Drow. "I would be incredibly grateful to you, Riniel." A very seductive look came to her face as she stroked him a little harder. "Grateful? You'll have to be more than that if you want me to show you. Now...." She let go of his cock and got on all fours facing away from him, looking back over her shoulder and grinning at him. "...vith ussta t'zarreth!" (Fuck my ass!) The command from her made him get up almost immediately and get behind her, taking his swollen, cum covered cock and plowing it deep inside of her tight ass, causing both of them to moan out very loudly. She had always been intrigued with the idea of anal sex, but most Drow men were not very well endowed. If she was going to try it out, she wanted a big cock in it, and Alex had just that. "Ohhhhhhhh!!!! By the Gods....vith uns'aa medose!!!" (fuck me harder!!!) His hands were firmly attached to her hips as he pounded at her ass like a jackhammer, watching her drop one of her hands between her legs and tease her pussy as his cock pumped in and out of her ass. He slapped and spanked her firm ass as he pounded her, listening to her moans get much louder than before as she buried two fingers into her pussy, bringing herself to another orgasm as he pumped his shaft in and out. "Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!" Her orgasm was loud, filling the room yet again as he slowed his pace down, reaching under her to grab her huge breasts, squeezing them tightly as his thrusts were still hard and deep. He didn't bother asking for permission to cum this time as he was already at that point due to how tight she was. He pulled his cock out of her ass and shot his second load, this time covering her ass and back with his hot, sticky cum. "Ohhhhhhhhh!!!!" Riniel collapsed forward, Alex doing the same not a few moments after. Their sweaty bodies soon intertwined with each other, kissing each other softly, their lips and tongues teasing each other. "Mmmmm....I will show you in the early morning before sunrise, Alex....but stay with me this night and show me what a human lover is truly capable of." Indeed he would for most that night, more than earning the favor she was going to do for him the next day. ************************* Alexander woke up before Riniel did, clearing his head from the lust-filled evening that the two had enjoyed. He glanced over at the Drow, who was sound asleep but with a very large smile on her face. She had managed to get two more rounds out of him before they finally passed out from sheer exhaustion. As he was gathering up his things, time seemed to slow down to him. He didn't know if it was an after-effect from the concoction that he had drank last night, but glancing back at the fire that was still going on, he noticed that the flame stopped flickering. In the next moment, Celeste appeared before him, a deep smile on her face as she stood in front of the nude human, her own body practically on display wearing a see-through gown. "It looks like you are doing a little extra work, Alexander." Alex laughed and glanced back at Riniel, then towards Celeste. "You told me to bed the ten women on the list, which I will do. You never said anything about extras along the way." She chuckled and nodded. "Oh I am not upset. After all, my teachings promote such actions, as you well know. I came to ask you if you had found where these women were?" "My Goddess, I have had only a day to study the list and I already have half of their locations. Some will prove quite difficult to find, however." Celeste offered a soft smile and approached him, touching his cheek. He probably would have become aroused if he didn't feel completely tapped out from the prior evening. "I trust that you will be able to find them. You must know, though, that finding these women will probably be the easy part. Bedding them, however, will be the difficult part. I take it this Drow is going to help you?" He nodded, knowing full well that Celeste had probably been watching from afar. "She can get me into Ereschel, where I will find the one called Silvara." Celeste nodded and stepped back before beginning to fade out. "That is wonderful news, my dear Alexander. Please, protect yourself." Time immediately picked back up to normal pace as Alex stood there shaking his head. Is that all she wanted? That seemed like a pretty useless visit, though throughout the readings he had studied, those charged with the quests by her would get frequent visits, especially if they were lost. A glance back to Riniel showed that she was finally waking up. Alex had begun to put his clothing back on. "Good morning, Riniel." "Good morning....you certainly know how to make a woman sleep well..." The busty Drow was looking at him as if she wanted a morning recap, but Alex knew that Ereschel would be difficult to get in to and he did not wish to waste any time. "I am glad you enjoyed it. I know I did. Now....as for Ereschel..." Riniel smiled and stood up, her naked form walking across the room to the wall nearby. Pressing in on one of the bricks, a secret passage opened up. "Follow this path and you will find yourself entering inside the walls of Ereschel." Alex had just finished clothing himself as he headed for the passage. "Will you do me the small favor of making sure that my horse is taken care of in my absence?" "Of course....but that will cost you extra..." She grabbed his crotch without hesitation, that seductive look returning to her eye. Alex had to do everything in his power to stop from slamming her against the wall and ravaging her right there. Instead, he simply nodded. "Perhaps when I return?" She smirked and nodded. "Relax, Alexander. I will just cash in on that at a later point in time. Safe travels." Alexander offered a very deep kiss to the busty Drow before disappearing into the secret passage, hearing the entranceway close behind him. Exploits of Alex Drake Ch. 03 After enjoying an unexpected romp with the beautiful Drow warrior, Riniel, Alex finds himself crawling through a secret passage that will take him one step closer to his first of ten women on the list, Silvara Vanviel. Of course, Alex has to realize that getting into Ereschel and getting into the pants of Silvara are two entirely different things. Again, if you wish to view the character pictures, go to my profile on the bulletin boards. I also encourage you to start from the beginning if you are finding this as the first story you read. You might be a little lost if you don't! Enjoy Chapter Three! ************************* "Of course I would have to follow a Drow's advice. Why couldn't it be dwarves that I found and have them build me something to just launch me into Ereschel? That would be better than dealing with these underground passages." Alex's bitching and complaining to himself echoed lightly throughout the tunnel as he found himself walking a very long time in the tunnel that Riniel had showed to him. Maybe the Drow was just using him for sex and leading him down a path to where her brethren would arrest him anyways? After all, she did drug him, though he seemed to think that was incredibly unnecessary. Still, he continued on down the path, walking for hours on end. Eventually, there was light at the end of the tunnel. The pathway came to an end with light shining through a small hole. Pushing on this area caused the wall to open up to a service tunnel that had water running down a slight decline to a brighter light at the end, some one thousand feet away. Figuring this is where Riniel had meant for him to go, he followed the light and found himself at the great lake where the Kingdom of Ereschel sat upon, with the ocean not terribly far off in the distance. "Thank you, Riniel. Now, it's time to see if this trinket will get me anything..." The light of day was starting to disappear, meaning it had taken him nearly the entire day to actually reach Ereschel. Alex was a little worn down, but he did not care about that. What he was focused on was getting into the castle where this supposed beautiful Queen was waiting for him. Then again, as his thoughts tapered off, what if the bartender had been full of it? Were the two figures that came inside that tavern actually been some part of an elaborate prank? His answer came as he headed up the hill and found himself at a back entrance to the primary castle. He realized that he was actually at the back entrance of the castle itself. The lake provided the eastern edge of the kingdom, but it seemed that the elves of the city had created an extension of the water, making a moat around the castle. The path that Riniel had made was actually a direct access point to the castle itself. His mind finally grasped that idea fully, realizing that if the Drow ever wanted to invade Ereschel, they not only had a way inside the walls, but inside the very castle itself. He did not want to even think about how Riniel or the other Drow had managed to do such a thing. Instead, he focused on the task at hand. The trees offered some shadowing for him to tuck himself away until nightfall full came. Once this happened, he decided it was now or never. The back entrance to the castle was unguarded. After all, considering the location, what was the point of guarding those doors? Alex's heart dropped as halfway to the castle, the doors opened up. For a moment, he expected a cascade of arrows to come flying as soon as he was spotted. Instead, that moment of sheer terror erased as he realized that two figures came out of the doors: The same two unknown figures that gave him the trinket at the Oaken Bucket! "I'll have to tip that barkeep extra next time I'm in Vilmire..." He was spotted by the figures almost immediately, but instead of sounding an alarm, they were frantically waving to him. Alex hastened his pace and made it to the doors. He arrived at the doors where the two figures stood, one almost immediately speaking the moment the trinket was in view. "It looks like Her Majesty has her man for the fortnight..." the female voice spoke softly. A nod came from the other as a slender arm reached out and opened up the door for Alex. "Our Lady Silvara awaits her man for this fortnight. Congratulations to you, human, and make sure you follow these instructions: Enter the doors, follow the hallway, and stand on the stone circle until you find yourself in her presence." Alex nodded and wasted no time, walking inside and finding a very dimly lit hallway. It was impossible to see how far it went since it curved around a bend almost immediately upon entering the castle. While Alex was certainly interested in getting to the stone circle that the followers spoke of, he kept telling himself he was in a castle. A castle inhabited by the wealthiest elven family in Ki-Rynn. A castle almost certainly held riches. He certainly walked down the hallway, but he did it at the slowest possible pace, looking for cracks, niches, and anything that could resemble anything like a vault. To his disappointment, the farther he walked, all he saw were solid walls. He was convinced there had to be some type of room, guarded or not, that held the vast treasures and coins of this realm. Several turns and bends later, Alex found himself at the end of the path. Several candles lit the end of the hallway that was in a circular room, though there was no actual door. In the middle was the stone circle that he had been told to stand on. Deciding to obey the orders given to him, he stood on the stone circle and waited. And waited. And waited some more. It seemed as though hours had passed, though it had actually been nothing more than half an hour. Sighing to himself, and debating on whether or not to just leave, he closed his eyes and ran his fingers through his auburn hair. When he opened his eyes....he found himself in a completely different room. He looked around, seeing a beautifully decorated bedroom, obviously crafted by Ereschel's finest craftsmen. He did notice that the room was round as well, so he had to make the assumption that the stone circle was a teleporter of some type. It wasn't completely outlandish. The elves weren't just known for their marksmanship. They were, in fact, very good with magic. "And here I thought my followers were going to be standing out there for a long time..." Alex turned around and found himself face to face with an elven woman of unmatched beauty. She was wearing clothing that one of royalty would wear, complete with the crystal and gold tiara on her head. It could really only be one woman. "Mi'lady Silvara Vanviel, I presume?" "Your intuition serves you well, my young human." Young human....what a simplistic thought, especially coming from an elf. All humans were young in the eyes of elves. After all, an elf could live to be several times older than even the oldest human. Still, the comment bounced off of Alex as he was far too busy letting his eyes take in the gorgeous elven woman that stood in front of him. She was nothing short of spectacular while she took in the human male with her own eyes before approaching him and placing one slender hand on his chest, letting it run down the front of his body very slowly. "I see my servants have chosen quite well this time, but this is not just a one night fling, my dear human....what is your name?" "Alexander Drake. You may call me Alex, mi'lady." "And you will call me 'Your Majesty' until I say otherwise, Alex." No, I won't. That was the thought that ran through Alex's head as she said those words. He was not a part of her kingdom, let alone even elven. He had a problem with authority as it was, and to be told such a thing made his blood boil. Still, if he wanted to complete this quest, he was going to have to swallow his pride and listen. Hopefully, it didn't have to last too long. The words that actually stuck out to him more was her speaking about this not being one night. "And what do you mean by this not being just a one night fling, Your Majesty? After all, it seems that the rumors that go aro..." "Do not speak of those rumors! They are false!" Wow...I hit a nerve with that one. He was curious as to if they were talking about the same rumor. It was obvious that the rumor he had heard about her bringing in men from other races and countries was true, but perhaps there was something else that was flying around about her. Eventually, though, she composed herself and returned to having the sweet and sultry look on her face. "Forgive my outburst. You must understand that many things that are spoken about me are not true. While I do have a penchant for enjoying a man privately on my own time, there are many things that are overblown about me." Now the thoughts were going through his head. Perhaps something that she is hiding is why Celeste had included her on the list. He had no idea it would be so easy to extract information from someone, though. It certainly made it easy when someone was so defensive about it. What was it that he could have brought up so casually that she could decide was so derogatory? "I understand, Your Majesty. Now, tell me...what do we do from here?" "Strip, Alex." Alex raised an eyebrow, but shrugged and decided to go ahead and do as she said. His eyes continued to check her body out, certainly admiring what he saw. He eventually stripped himself down to nothing, figuring that this was going to lead to some fun. He would be in for a surprise, though, as the Queen walked up to him and began to run her hands on his body as if she was checking him for something. "Very nice...I had no idea that humans could keep in such good shape. I am impressed, Alex." His manhood was very slowly starting to stiffen with the touches that she gave him, but he would receive no attention as she slowly walked away from him and towards the teleporter. "You pass my standards. Make yourself comfortable and I will return in due time. Feel free to roam the castle. I will inform my guard that you are here as a diplomat." Diplomat? Alex was now genuinely confused. He had expected to basically walk in after being picked by those very strange servants and bend this gorgeous woman over the nearest object before leaving the mark on her. What was going on here in Ereschel? ************************* Later that night, Alex found himself roaming through some of the halls in the castle, getting varying looks from the members of the guard and staff. Some of the looks he received were ones of jealousy, as if they knew the real reason why he was there. Others were of disgust, considering that even though relations were somewhat good between Elves and Humans as a whole, it would seem the sentiment was not returned deep inside Ereschel. While he roamed, a great bell rang out in the castle halls. Almost immediately, Alex found himself approached by one of the guards. "Sir, that is the bell that signifies the end of the day. If you would be so kind as to return to your room, we would appreciate it." Why is everyone so worried about me? Alex's curiosity was getting the best of him, but he decided to comply with the request and head back to the tower. The guards left him alone once he was out of the main area of the castle and, soon, he found himself walking towards another teleporter much like the one that had taken him up the first time. Glancing behind him, though, he found no guards around, and he wondered if he could somehow make the teleporter send him somewhere else. He felt as though his every move was being watched or, perhaps he was just being paranoid. Still, the self-proclaimed treasure hunter, or thief, as most called him, couldn't help but want to explore. Stepping onto the teleporter, it wasn't more than a blink of an eye and he was back in his room. The tower room itself was isolated...but something didn't seem right. "If this room is shut out, how in the world did Silvara manage to get in here with me standing on the teleporter? Something isn't right..." He began to look around the large room, his hand searching the brick for anything that looked out of place. He also searched the furniture, dresser, bed, anything that could be moved. Eventually, he found the answer he was looking for. The large bookcase that was near the far corner from the bed itself moved out rather easily, although there was still a brick wall there. It appeared that the bookcase was on hinges, allowing it to act as a door. Pressing his hand towards the brick wall, he grinned to himself as his hand simply went through the wall. It was a magical illusion, and Alex now found his way to roam this castle further. Walking through the fake wall, he was now in a corridor that had a staircase winding down. It had to be an extension of the tower itself as it circled around. Alex made sure his sword was with him, not wanting to do some unexpected exploring without protection. While he had good knowledge of magic, he did not want to be unlucky and run into an elven mage. He wouldn't stand a chance if it became a magic vs. magic battle. The staircase would eventually come to a halt to a T-intersection. To the left was a very dimly lit hallway while, to the right, it got brighter as it went further down the hallway. Assuming that the right took him back to the main part of the castle, darker light usually meant better secrets and adventure. With his right hand on the hilt of his sword, he walked down the hallway slowly, his eyes looking around. There were certain times he wished he wore armor, but he felt it was too confining. Besides, armor didn't protect against magic, and it usually only did its job with swings, not piercing blows. It also hindered him too much, and in a sword fight, he wanted every advantage possible. The long hallway got darker and darker. Eventually, Alex was wondering if he would have to turn back for a torch of some type, but turning back probably meant the end of exploration for the night. He closed his eyes and chanted quietly to himself, eventually summoning a very bright light. It would last for as long as he could maintain his own magical energy, which wasn't going to be very long. After a few more moments, he reached the end of the dark hallway and came to a heavy wooden door. Extinguishing his light, he very slowly opened up the door...which he found was either soundproof, or he had the best timing of anyone in the world. "Oh God! Fuck me, slave! Fuck me HARDER!" Slipping inside the door and into the shadows of the very large, spacious room, he found what he was looking for in this mystery. There was Her Highness, Silvara, getting fucked by a Drow male. She was bent over a wooden table while the Drow pounded her as hard as he could, though he looked as though he was out of energy and was going on sheer instinct. Casting another spell, one of invisibility, he sat in the corner of the room and watched as this Elven Queen took it from a Drow. He then realized that the Drow was chained him as he fucked her, which was either some type of deep, dark sexual fantasy....or this man truly was a slave and was getting a break from being such a thing. The spell Alex had casted would last for a little longer, hopefully long enough for this to end and he would get a chance to figure out what was going on. Sure enough, not long after slipping into the corner, both Silvara and the Drow came. Once finished, the Drow practically collapsed from sheer exhaustion while the busty Queen reached down and pulled her robes up over her. "I thought the Drow were renowned for their stamina....no wonder you didn't make the cut. Oh well, you're still fun anyways. Until next time, slave." Silvara then walked out a back entrance of the room, leaving the Drow panting on the ground as if he was fighting for his life. Once he was convinced that he was in no danger, he dropped the spell and made his way over to the Drow. "...a Human? How did you find this?" The Drow spoke common, though with a very thick accent. "There was a secret passage in my room, a magical false wall. Why are you chained down here?" The Drow managed to pull himself up to a sitting position, reaching down to pull the leather leggings up over himself, perhaps to comfort both of them better. After all, what man wanted to see another man in that manner? "It would be wise of you to escape this castle while you can, Human." "Why is that?" "Because Lady Silvara...she is insatiable. She is looking for the 'perfect man' as she says. She needs a man that can quench her thirst for lust and pleasure, but her demands are practically impossible to fulfill. You will go round after round after round with her...until you are completely spent. She will declare you a slave from that point until further notice. Basically, you are thrown down here and she comes to see if you have improved." Alex listened to the Drow's words. It was actually surprising that this man was so open with him, given that most every Drow hated Humans. Slavery will change a person... "How long have you been down here?" "I believe it has been five fortnights....though I do not know. I know that one man died just after I was sent down here." The Drow pointed over to an empty cell. "He was in there when I was here. He had gone insane. All he wanted to do was please Silvara. He sat there with a crazed look in his eye. She would come down here and he would instantly become aroused...she would just drop her robe as she did with me, put her backside against the opening in the cell, and he would pleasure her through the metal bars. He was little more than a toy at that point for her." Alex glanced over near the cell to see two rats fighting over some crumbs of food. "Do you get much in the way of food or water?" "Little. The guards give just enough to keep us going...to keep us capable of pleasing her. The man before me...before he went completely insane and then died...he told me there had been many before him. It is little more than a game to her." Now he understood why Silvara was on the list....at least he thought he did. Silvara needed to be punished. "Is there anything I can do for you?" The Drow shook his head and laid back down. "I am close to death, I fear. Even if you were to free me, I have little energy left. Do not worry. She will not visit you until I am gone...or useless. She only changed her ways with me because the senile man was feared dead...but that was not the case." Alex grew a little cold, but now he was eager, of all things. He wanted to put this woman in her place. She was a real-life black widow...one that mated and killed. "Go, Human. Get back to your room. I would hate to find out that my information to you was in vain. Please...do what you must, but make sure you do not fall into her trap." Alex nodded and stood up, respecting the dying man's wishes. It took little time for him to get back to his room, getting into his bed. It would be just a few minutes after that when the teleporter in the room sprang to life and Silvara appeared. "Are my lodgings for you adequate, Alexander?" Alex sat up a bit in his bed, nodding to her. "They are fit for any man to be lucky enough in your presence, Your Majesty." His skin crawled at the very sound of speaking of those words. The Elven Queen was impressed by the way he worded the statement, though. "That pleases me. It will not be long before I come to visit you for longer than just a few moments. Just be patient, and you will have a night that you won't soon forget." With that, the Queen was gone, disappeared back into the teleporter. Alex then got out of bed, walking to the center of the room at the teleporter before looking up. Exploits of Alex Drake Ch. 03 "My Goddess, I know why you want this woman marked!" Time, once again, appeared to stand still. "And why is that, Alexander?" Alex turned around to find Celeste standing there in a long white robe, her hair a little messy and wet. It would appear that the Goddess had been bathing. "My apologies if I interrupted you in some way. You want her marked because she is using pleasure as a form of a weapon, is that not right?" Celeste stepped forward and smiled, letting her hand come up to her chest. "Your intuition serves you well. Yes, Lady Silvara has been imprisoning men and basically sucking the very life out of them for her own sick desires. That is not what I preach. I am glad that you saw this with your own eyes. Truthfully, I was hesitant to allow you to come here as your first mission." Celeste's hand slid down the front of his body, eventually cupping his manhood and giving a playful squeeze. He let out a little breath as she did so. "My Goddess...what will happen when I mark her?" Celeste began to rub up and down, looking into the mortal's eyes. "She will be punished. How she will be punished, I have not quite decided just yet. You agree that she needs this, however, right?" Alexander nodded, his eyes having trouble staying open as she rubbed his growing manhood. "What did you think of her when you saw her with the Drow? Don't be shy...I already know the answer. I just want to hear it from your mouth." Alex tried focusing long enough to answer the question as her motion got a little faster and harder. "I...I wanted to be the male." "Good answer. You know better not to lie to me. If there is one thing I can trust of you, you do not lie. That is a good trait to have." She reached into his pants and, just as she had at the lake, fished his cock out from his trousers. This time, though, she dropped to her knees. "She seemed to be enjoying herself quite a bit, didn't she?" Her mouth opened up and took him inside, sucking very slowly. "Ohhh....I could have given it to her better...harder...faster..." Celeste picked up her pace, bobbing her head on his swollen shaft. She let the robe wrapped around her body fall off of her shoulders, revealing her large, luscious breasts. He looked down at her as she bobbed on his cock, pulling away long enough to speak again. "Is that so? Perhaps that's what she wants...a man that gives it to her like none have before..." She resumed sucking on his cock, lifting up her breasts to wrap them around his long shaft as she sucked on him. "Mmmmmm...this feels so good, my Goddess...she wants a man that can please her no matter the time of day or how many times they have pleasured each other...she asks the impossible..." Celeste pulled away from him, grinning, a little saliva hanging from her chin. "Do not worry about that. I will take care of your stamina...though I believe you are more than capable as a mortal...there will be no issue." Those words comforted him, and now he could focus on what was going on at that point. Celeste continued to bob up and down on his member, wrapping her hands tightly on the outsides of her breasts, squeezing them very tightly around his cock, slurping on his shaft. "Mmmmm....cum for me, my dear follower..." Alexander thrusted into her mouth to meet the bobs of her head, loving the feeling of her breasts around his throbbing member. Every ounce of him wanted to please her in every way possible, but he knew that he could not do such a thing unless granted that luxury. He settled for what she was giving him at that moment as she bobbed harder and faster. "Ohhhh Celeste...my Goddess...I am going to cum....!" With that proclamation, he exploded with a huge load of cum in her mouth and all over her breasts, groaning out in pleasure as he did. He breathed hard after letting out his loudest moan, taking his cock in his hands and rubbing it all over her shapely breasts. "Mmmmmm...you never fail to disappoint your Goddess...I look forward to watching you with the Queen. Until then..." She stood up, grabbing her robe and covering herself before blowing him a kiss and disappearing into thin air. Time began to flow once again as normal as he stood there, trying to catch his breath. Satisfied with his mission...as well as with the pleasure he had just received, he returned to bed, focusing on the task at hand.
