For the Whored Ch. 001

By: Thatawfulwowporno



"Sir!" The brown skinned orc saluted Warchief Grommash. "We've found something strange outside the walls. It appears to be one of the strange creatures that came through the dark gate. I think prophet Garrosh called it a "night elf"." 

"Dispose of it." 

"I would have, but this one was chained up and unconscious. Like a sacrifice. It seemed too easy."

"Hmm." Grommash tapped his finger on the arm of his throne. 

"She had this book. I don't understand the words in it, but the pictures are clear. She has information I think we could use." The orc hesitated and cleared his throat. "Especially with the death of Prophet Garrosh." 

"Bring it in."

The orc nodded and another pair of orcs dragged the night elf to the center of the room and dumped her. She pushed herself up and looked around the room. 

"That was largely unnecessary." She grumbled. Sitting back she looked up at the large orc sitting on a throne of bone and metal. "Oh, wow. If you aren't the most prime specimen of a male, I don't know what is. Oh, please let me draw you."

A muscle in his face twitched. "What were you doing outside my fort?" 

"That's not really important. Geez, you must be huge. Forget draw, let me lick you."

Grommash stood up and stomped over to the night elf, and yanked her up with a handful of hair and her ear. "Answer me!"

"Watch the ears." She grumbled. "Look, ok, I have a habit of sticking my nose in the wrong place. And words were said, things happened and then they're yelling "Treason!" and then I'm staked out here, for "justice"." She rolled her eyes. "Not my fault I like to look." Reaching out, she brushed her fingers on his chest. "Oh, nice." She purred. 

Grommash tossed her to the ground and returned to his chair. 

"Geez, I like it rough, but you guys are just excessive." The night elf rubbed her chin. 

"Why shouldn't we execute you right here and now?" He leaned back.

"Alright, alright." She waved a hand. "Can I have my book back, please?" 

Grommash nodded and the other orc handed over the book. She rifled through it and pulled out a sheet of paper. Handing it to the orc she nodded. "That is a full scale map of the world you seek to visit and destroy. I can give you all you need to know about it." 

Grommash glared at the paper and made a gesture. The other orc held a knife to her throat. 

"You will tell me all you know." 

She just laughed. "Torture me, kill me. I don't care. I'm made of tougher stuff, and I don't give easy." 

Jomak yanked her hair. "I will see about that."

"Get the stick out of your ass." She rolled her eyes. "I didn't say there wasn't a compromise. No... you give me what I want, and you can have all I got."

"What is your price?" Grommash spat. 

"Just a pencil and paper." 

Jomak moved back. 

"Your demands are strange."

"Not really. The name's Elunara, and I am an artist. I like to draw things. It is my only passion. Let me draw, and I will talk. Everyone always tells me I don't know when to shut up. I'm certain I can make that work for you. I'm just itching to draw everyone here. What do ya say? You let me sit and draw, and I teach you everything you need to know."

"You would go against your own people?" 

"They chained me to a post to die, they are not MY people."

"I fail to see how a songbird would do me any good."

What are you," She gave his exact height and weight. "Is that working muscle or do you get it from a bottle? No, I don't think so, that's pure, raw power, I wouldn't see anything more than the best going into that body. You've gotta be packin a," She gave a rough estimate of his dick size, shape and dimension. "Come on, you can tell me. Let's see, the size of your axe there, I bet it's..." She described the exact size and shape of the axe, the span of the blade, the weight of the thing. 

"How are you doing that?"

The night elf began giving measurements of the orcs in the room, the size of weapons the makes of walls. 

"Listen to me sugar; I spend my life drawing, and measuring. I could make it for you, sugar. Just give me a go."

Grommash laughed. "Fine, little songbird, I'll see what you're made of." 

Elunara held up the shackles and dropped them to the ground. "I've been out of those things for the past hour."

"Shackle her to my throne; I want to hear what she has to teach me."

Jomak grabbed her by the shoulder and pushed her over. A set of orcish shackles tied her to the chair. 

"Since you were kind enough to return my book..." Elunara got comfortable and leaned back against the chair. "Let me explain to you the layout of the world you want to visit."

Sketching while she talked, she began to describe the layout of the continents of Azeroth, its various zones and landscapes. Occasionally, she would rip a sheet of paper out of her book, wad it up and toss it over her shoulder, it burst into flame when it hit the ground. 

"Why do you do that?" 

"I messed up the page, I need to start over."

"Hmm."

"So, about that extra paper and pencils?"

Grommash nodded to a servant who took off running. 

"I'll judge its quality, but since you are willing, let me tell you all about your first major obstacle. King Varian Wyrnn is the King of Stormwind, and the current head ruler of the alliance. The allegiances of Azeroth is divided into the Alliance and the Horde."

"Yes. I have heard of these, the Prophet Garrosh spoke greatly on them."

Elunara snorted. "Prophet Garrosh?" She wiped at her eye. "Oh man, that explains so much."

Grommash growled. "What amuses you about this?"

"Ok, I'll switch topics." She scribbled a few marks on the edge of her paper. "I don't know what you've heard, but Garrosh is no prophet. He was a whiney little kid that Thrall took pity on."

"Thrall is the name of the one who slew Garrosh."

"Bout time if you ask me." Her eyes dart back and forth between her paper and her surroundings. "You see, when I first met Garrosh some years ago, he was weeping in his stew."

Grommash narrowed his eyes. 

"Granted, I was in disguise at the time, it's hard to get a good look at your subject when it wants to kill you. Anyhow, I was tracking down a particularly amazing looking Tauren, when I came across Garrosh, weeping and crying about how me missed his daddy and would never be as awesome as him. God, he was annoying. Thrall, who was chasing his own demons at the time, found Garrosh and gave him a place in the Horde. He gave Garrosh a chance to prove himself, and it seemed to work. At least for a little while." She looked down at her notepad before holding it up and moving it back and forth. "Hey, hot stuff!" 

One of the orcs blinked and pointed to himself. 

"Yeah, you. Turn a little to the left, would ya?"

He shuffled.

"That's the ticket. Thanks, doll!" She returned to sketching. "So anyway, Thrall kept trying to bring out the warrior in the little twit, but Garrosh had this habit of crying over every broken fingernail. Then Thrall was called upon by the elements themselves. That's not a summons you can argue with. Thrall had come from some pretty low digs himself. And I'll tell you more about that if your paper is top quality, but anyway... Thrall had come from nothing and made the Horde. He had forged himself into the leader he is now. He thought that if he gave Garrosh the same opportunity, then Garrosh would become a man. 

Nice sentiment and all, but Garrosh took it and ran. He became paranoid and stupid. He isolated his main force, and kept only what he thought of as the most loyal. You kick a dog enough, and it'll bite you. Bite him it did. You see, the Horde and the Alliance have never gotten along. They've come together under the most gruesome of circumstances, and when the chips are down, they will destroy whatever is in their way. However, immediately after, they go back to fighting each other. 

This time was a little different. Not only did they begrudgingly accept help from each other, they actually started to form a bond. It wasn't so nasty any more, having the other side fight with you. 

We roflstomped Garrosh into next Tuesday. When it came time for the killing blow, though, it almost started another war. Thrall wanted the killing blow for what that twit did to Thrall's precious Horde. King Varian wanted the kill because it was his force that bailed out the Horde. In the end though, it was the Pandas who called for justice. Garrosh's arrogance had ripped a hole into the very heart of their lands. 

So Garrosh was clapped in chains and hauled to who knows where. But the little bitch escaped, practically yelling "I'll tell my daddy on you!"." She snorted, wadding up a sheet of paper and tossing it over her shoulder. "You see, Garrosh's father died on the very day that he had showed up. This time he was going to get daddy's help to get his revenge, instead of handling it himself."

"Who is this father?"

"Dunno. It was always "my father" this, and "my father" that. If he didn't tell you, then I can't say." 

An orc ran in, holding a package. Grommash took the package and looked in before handing it over to the night elf. She pulled out some sheets and nodded. 

"Good quality stuff."

"Tell me of this Thrall?"

"Done deal." For the next few hours, she sketched and talked, covering Thrall and Varian. Soon night fell and she continued to talk as food was served. Not giving more information until she was able to eat and drink well, she continued on the Alliance factions. 

"You see, Moira was the daughter of the dwarven king, and after her capture they sent armies after her. None returned. Soon a group of adventurers were called, and I wound up in that party. It turned out, Moira was fighting for the Dark Irons. She had fallen in love with their king. In the end their king was slain, but none of us felt very good about it. She was distraught, refused to return, and stayed, claiming throne. When her daddy was locked in that awful spell, well..." She shook her empty cup. Once it was refilled she chugged it. "She came back and took her place, but the other dwarves didn't trust her... being a Dark Iron now."

Once the court retired, Elunara continued to sketch the emptied room. Standing near the door, two orcs guarded the room. 

"Hey you!"

"What?" Asked one.

"Come stand here for me." 

The two looked at each other before one shrugged and walked over, axe in hand. "What do you want."

"Just stand there." She returned to sketching. 

"Do you ever stop?" Asked the other. 

"Well, I already got some sleep this morning, I'm still pretty awake. I just want to draw you." 

One of them walked over and peered over her shoulder. "That's amazing."

"Thanks. You can be next if you want."

"Can I have it?" Asked the other. 

"Well, I don't usually, but sure. Can you turn around please?"

So they watched her draw one another, and she gave them each a copy of their own picture. She grinned as they carefully folded them and hid them on their person. 

The next morning she woke to two more packs of paper and fresh pencils. Each day, she spoke and when Grommash was satisfied with her, he would give her new gifts. The other orcs called her his pet. She spoke endlessly of politics and landscape, of strategy and secrets. 

One day, Grogek, Grommash's top commander had his own question. "Don't you know anything about your forces on this world?"

"Of course I do."

Grommash grabbed her by the ear. "Tell me!"

"Hey! What did I say about the ears?" 

He shoved her back. "Why have you not told me this, instead of filling my head with a world I cannot touch yet?"

Elunara rubbed her ear. "Because I knew you weren't ready to give me what I want, so why should I give up the good stuff?"

"What is your price, Night elf?"

"My own room and an orc delivered to my room to be drawn."

They gawked at her. "What?"

"It's actually very simple. I told you once before that I am an artist with a specific interest. I like to draw naked men. A private room makes it a little easier to get the clothes off of them, and get... the poses I want."

The two orcs put their heads together and muttered back and forth. 

"Fine!" Grommash growled. "Find her a private hut!" He bellowed to the room. "Is that all?" He asked. 

"Well, I would like to sit in the courtyard during the day. I've run out of things to draw in here."

"Fine, but under my terms." 

Grogek grabbed her chain and led her outside and staked the chain out in the center area. 

"Thank you, muchly!" She patted his arm. 

He narrowed his eyes at her. "I do not trust you."

"You don't have to, darling." She winked at him. "Please tell me you'll pose for me."

A strange ripple crossed his face before he stepped back. "You say strange things."

"Did you..."

He turned and walked away. 

"WAS THAT A BLUSH??" She called. At the twitch in his shoulders she giggled and quickly scribbled on the paper before wadding it up and tossing it over her shoulder.

During the day, she was staked outside, and during the evenings she was chained to the throne, talking nonstop. At night, she sat chained in her room and drew whoever came to her. The first night, it was the guards from before. The first waited outside, while the other came in. 

She made herself comfortable on the straw. "What's your name, sugar?"

"Lorros."

"Well, Lorros, we're going to start off nice and easy. Just stand there, and I'll sketch you just like before, and we'll move on to something a little more interesting."

He straightened up. "I am to follow your instructions."

"Were you told what I eventually expect?"

He looked confused. "No. He just told us that you were to draw us. I... Well, after last time, we both volunteered." 

She almost choked on her laugh. "Alright then."

Once again she worked on drawing him as he was, in his armor, careful to get the positions she wanted. When she was done, she showed him her work. 

He laid a careful hand on it. "Your work is amazing." He blinked. "Should I send in Jobar now?"

She chuckled. "It really wasn't nice of them, to not tell you what I wanted."

He froze and blinked in confusion. 

"What I asked for... was to draw naked men."

His eyes grew wide and he stepped back. 

"Yes, I want you naked. We can start by the over armor." 

"But, you're..."

"The prisoner, yes. But he told you to follow my instructions. So take off the heavier pieces and lay them to the side. You can keep the pants on... for now."

Lorros seemed to fight with himself for a moment before taking off the pieces of his armor. 

Elunara watched him as he shrugged out of his shoulder plates, and removed his chest piece. He hesitated. 

"Yes, even the boots."

While he rid himself of the armor, she watched and sketched, saving the more intimate moves to finish out later. When he finally stood, in nothing but his pants, she licked her lips. "Now that is more like it." 

He frowned at her while she continued to draw. "Your kind is strange."

Elunara chuckled softly. "My kind? I am nothing like my kind. They find me strange as well. Face the wall please." Making a few rough sketches she smiled. "There is none like me, sugar. You can turn back around." 

He faced her again, confusion on his face. "I don't understand you."

"No one does." Tapping her pencil on the pad, she twisted her face in thought. "Now the pants."

Lorros hesitated before reaching for the front of his pants. As he removed them, she ran her tongue along her teeth. 

"Oh, that's what I'm talking about. That right there." 

His dick fell out, and she began to furiously sketch. The pants on the floor, he stepped out of them. 

"Soft as a petal, and still hung like a horse. I was so right about you guys. I'm going to have material for years." Her eyes flicked back and forth between him and the pad. "Geez your balls must be the size of watermelons." She muttered. 

He shifted back and forth. 

"Face the wall."

"What?" 

"I want to capture that hard ass you must have." She motioned with her finger. "Oh, yeah. That is toned." She sketched furiously.

Nodding to her work, she looked up. "Face me." 

He turned back around, a little more relaxed. "You're strange."

"You have no idea." She placed the pad to the side and stood up. He stepped back as she walked over. 

"Where is your...?"

"My chain? I don't need it. It'll be our little secret ok?" She winked. "my people, as you call them, cast me out. They didn't like that I would sully myself with the bodies of the lower races." She ran her fingers on his chest. Softly she purred. "Oh yes, hard as steel. I like these orc bodies." 

He shifted under her touch and looked perplexed. "What are you..."

"I want a good picture. I need to have all the details. I've seen you one way, now I want to see another." Smoothly her fingers moved down his chest and stomach and brushed lightly on his stiffening dick. 

"I'm very skilled actually. I know just how to get what I want." She gripped him lightly. "mmm quite large." She ran her hand up and down, caressing his dick as it began to grow. She shifted to two hands and worked on him for a little while before moving a hand down to his balls and began to massage. 

He shuddered under her touch, and reluctant to touch her, he gripped his own hips with his hands. 

She lifted a hand and licked her thumb. "mm warm."

Abruptly she walked back to her sketch pad and began to sketch out his erection as she returned to the confused orc. She stoops down and sketched out the details as she ran a hand around his dick and balls. She kept him erect and frustrated for some time as she got the most intimate details. He grunted in frustration and she grinned up to his frowning face. 

Without warning she wrapped her mouth around him and began to suck, He gasped and reflexively grabbed her hair. When she was certain he was at his end, she moved off quickly and let him finish himself on to the floor. She kicked a bit of dirt on to it and stood up. 

"Yes, I think I got what I wanted. I can finish this another time." She strolled back to her straw bedding. 

Lorros blinked at her in confusion and stared down at his quickly deflating dick. 

"I..."

"Get dressed and send in your friend. I want to get in another set of drawings in before I go to bed."

Dumbly he turned around and grabbed at his clothes. He tugged on his pants as he stared at her. She seemed to have gone back to wordlessly sketching, having completely dismissed him.

Stumbling out of the hut, he nodded to Jobar, who gave him a questioning look before heading inside.

For the Whored Ch. 002



The following morning, Elunara was led to the throne room as she sketched. Looking up, she smiled. 

"Ah, Grommash, I am quite pleased with my selection last night." She winked at Lorros, who stood off to the side, trying to not meet her gaze. "I have information you will want."

"Spill it, elf."

She held up a small map. "In Talador, there's a small outpost on the border to your encampment there. It's small, but quite defensible. When I last left them, they had sent a settlement of about a hundred troops, and were angling to send more. If they're allowed to build on that spot, it would become quite the danger to your troops. I suggest taking it down now."

"Is that all you have?"

"We start there. When I prove my word, you will see fit to send me some more... drawing subjects, and I will see fit to give up more."

Grommash nodded. "We will see then." He turned to his commander. "Grogek! See it done!"

Grogek bowed to Grommash before glaring at Elunara.

She was dragged back outside and staked in the center of the work area. With quick hands she sketched everything, down to the tiniest detail. Often she would finish a page, make notations and then wad it up and toss it over her shoulder, only to start over again. She was watching a set of goblins pulling on some canisters when she stood up. 

"Hey! What are you doing?" She flailed her arms. "Stop messing with those!"

"What are you on about?" Grogek frowned at her. 

"They need to stop picking at those canisters. In fact, they need to get rid of them before they kill us all." 

"Why?"

"Did Garrosh bring those over? How stupid was that orc? Those are Dark Lady Canisters and they contain a nasty little bastard. Don't use those. I don't care WHAT he told you about those, just handling them are stupid. They're rigged to blow. Get rid of those things. In fact, find a mage and port them away. Anywhere!" She flailed her arms. 

"Hey you! Let go of those!" He bellowed. He turned an eye on her. "Show me." He unhooked her chain. 

She jogged over and began to inspect the canisters. "Praise Elune, the mechanism is broken." 

"Where did you get these?" Grogek glared at the goblin.

"When we raided that last Horde camp, we found these and some books. The schematics said these were bombs. We was gonna use them against your enemies."

Elunara pulled out a sheet of paper and began to rapidly sketch. "Get a mage over here; we need to get rid of these." 

Grogek barked orders. And soon a female orc came over. 

"Cast this spell." Elunara held out a sheet of paper with a complicated rune style on it. "This is the only safe way to get rid of this thing.

The woman looked between the orc and the night elf. Grogek nodded and the mage began to cast. Once the canisters were gone, she turned to the goblin. 

"Where are the schematics?"

He dug around in a pouch before producing a wad of papers. Elunara began to read them, shifting papers back and forth and frowning. With a laugh she shoved the papers at Grogek who began to look through them with some confusion. The commotion brought the attention of Grommash who marched over. 

"What's going on?" He bellowed.

"This goblin was tricked into taking a rigged weapon. It's a little hard to understand, but if you know what you're looking for... and I've had dealings with the Dark Lady in the past, you'll see the whole thing is bullshit." She took a sheet of paper out of Gorgek's hand. "See here?" She tapped the drawing. "The so called "instructions" would cause those things to blow, killing all of us. These so called plans were planted."

Grommash glared down at the now cowering goblin. "And you were foolish enough to fall for it? Are you not Garrosh's secret weapon?"

"Well..." The goblin stuttered.

"I will not suffer fools in MY iron horde! Kill him!"

"Wait!" Elunara flinched at her own mouth.

"You defy me?" Grommash glared at her. 

She held her hands up as she thought quickly. "It's just that... Well, far be it for me to go against your decision, and goblins are crazy little fuckers..." Her eyes darted around as she bit her lip. "Well, this goblin may have fallen for a trap, but he's also the one that saved us."

"Saved us? How?"

"By tampering with the mechanism, he actually prevented it from blowing."

"Dumb luck."

"Or goblin intuition. Who knows? He busted it, so he saved us."

"Hmm." Grommash crossed his arms.

The air was still and work seemed to have stopped as everyone waited to see what the warchief would do.

"Very well. If you wish to keep him, then he can be your servant."

"Serve her well." He laughed. Turning to Grogek he frowned. "Chain her back to the post and come to the war room." Before walking away.

Elunara leaned back on her post and returned to drawing. The goblin stood before her and frowned. 

"You stuck your neck out for me, even when it was already stretched, why?" 

"Don't make me regret it." She muttered. 

"Name's Ricky." 

"Elunara."

"I guess I'll go get you a drink."

That evening, Grommash let her stay unlocked during evening meal and while she directed the maps. Murmurs and mutters went around the hall, but none directly questioned Grommash. 

That night, a new orc showed in her room. She unlocked the chain around her neck while in her hut.

He stood before her, dressed only in shirt and pants, as he eyed her warily. 

"Has it gotten around, what I do?" She sketched him with a careful eye. 

Still he said nothing. 

"Shirt off, please."

He pulled the edge of the shirt up and over, and tossed it down. 

Elunara sketched him. "Turn around."

He complied and she sketched out the strong taught muscles of his back and ass. She sat the pad down, and soft as a whisper, tiptoed over to the orc and slipped her arms around him. He straightened up and stiffened his spine, as she slide her fingers down his chest and stomach. Softly she bit at his neck and ran her lips down his back. She slipped her fingers into his pants and through the hair of his crotch and wrapped her hands around his hardening dick. She nipped at his ass and stroked the length of him. One hand dipped down and cupped his balls; rubbing her fingers down the center. 

She released him and stood up as he turned around. She pushed his pants down to the floor and stroked him with her fingertips. With a grin she went back and grabbed her sketch pad. Furiously she sketched out every line and curve of him. She he began to get a little soft, she would agitate him again. When at last she got what she wanted. She tossed the book aside. 

Licking his chest, she pulled at his hand, positioning his fingers on her crotch. His expression changed to shock when she shoved his fingers in her. Teasing his neck and chest with licks and nips, she humped his hand until at last the orgasm ripped through her. She lost track of when he had started to participate, but he had done his on the ground already. Once again she kicked dirt over the wet spot. 

"Alright then, have a nice night." She picked up her book and got comfortable. 

Looking a little dazed and confused, the orc put on his clothes and left the hut. 

Over the next few days, she was given more room to move. Elunara showed them her ideas for increasing security, for changing this or that. As her plans were implemented, Grommash gave her more lead, until she walked around unchained, but collared. Many knew that the chain was only a ruse, but none spoke of it. 

In the center of town, she sat and sketched. 

"What are those marks on the edge of the paper?"

She looked up at Ricky. "Notes."

"They don't look like notes."

She shrugged and took and glass he held. "I know what they are, and that is all."

"You don't trust me."

She gave him a mild look. "You are not the first goblin I've had dealings with."

"Yeah, I give you that."

She sipped and looked around, her eyes darting back and forth between her drawings and the scene she captured.

"Why do ya do it?"

"What?" She looked back at the goblin, now shuffling his feet. 

"You know. The thing. At night."

"So you've been looking." She continued to sketch, not really paying much attention to the fidgeting goblin.

"Well, I heard things. I was..." He hesitated. "I worried. So I looked. Saw more than I bargained for."

"Why do anything?" She shrugged. "But, that is also not first I've been asked that." With a sigh she sat her pencil down. "I enjoy it. I cannot explain it in any way that would make sense to you, or even my own race. I enjoy their bodies. I enjoy looking at them, studying them; the feel, the smell. It is a part of me."

"And they pay you in favors?"

"Why not get paid for something you were going to do anyway?"

"Now, that I understand."

Elunara picked up her pencil and began to sketch.



For the Whored Ch. 003



In the evening, Elunara took her place beside the throne while the meal was served. A familiar sound caught her attention and she focused on the back of the throne. Flexing her hand, she waited patiently until her target shifted. An assailant raised their hand toward Grommash's back while Elunara shifted her weight. Before the target could finish her swing, Elunara's dagger went into her throat. A blue haired night elf hit the ground at Grommash's feet. The commotion in the room froze as Elunara stooped down to inspect the body. 

"Hey! This bitch owes me 40 gold." She rifled through the corpse's clothes. 

"You just saved Grommash..." Grogek whispered. 

"Huh?" She slipped the contents of the slain elf's belongings in her own bag. Looking up, she noticed the room gaping at her. "Oh. Yeah." She turned her attention to the encoded message in the elf's bag. 

Grommash barked a laugh. "My pet has done well!" 

"I need the board." She mumbled, before pushing past the orcs and heading into the war room. She pushed several objects to the side and began running her finger along the paper. The laid the scrap of paper over the area. 

"Yes, there. Hmm."

"I see nothing but random markings." Grogek frowned.

"It's an encoded message. Each symbol has its own meaning, but this one..." She tapped the paper. "This is a location."

"What does it say?" Grommash narrowed his eyes.

"They have established a foothold at this location. It's a risky spot, but night elves are used to such terrain. I remember seeing it on my way here."

"How do we know this is not a trick?" This from Grogek.

"They left me out here to die, and have no reason to believe I live. Mylune was a terrible rogue, and it's just her style to not only attempt such a stupid, inescapable assassination, but to not destroy such an important piece of paper. Only my kind know this language, it would take my kind to decipher it."

"Hmm. I believe this. Grogek, send out the troops. We must CRUSH this before it becomes a stronghold."

Grogek frowned and looked back and forth between his Warchief and the night elf that was busy poring over the papers. 

"Yes sir. It will be done." He turned and left.

"What else does that paper say?"

"The sister count is low." She murmured, half to herself, but loud enough to be heard. "Only a few glaives, but those are easily dealt with. Hmm. This was a request for support from a alliance out post...." She dragged her finger around the map. "Here. I think." Elunara straightened up. Sliding a finger in a line, she shook her head. "The fastest route was straight through here. Idiot."

Grogek returned. "The troops have been dispatched."

"Send some to this other location as well." 

"It will be done." 

Grommash barked a laugh. "Killed an assassin and led more of my troops to a slaughter, high praise indeed!" Grommash whacked her on the back. "What prize do you claim from me now?"

"Grogek." She stared at the stunned orc as she said it. "I want him to pose for me."

Grommash exploded in laughter. "It is done!"

"But sir..."

Grommash narrowed his eyes. "Do you question me?"

Grogek straightened up. "No sir."

Elunara allowed a small smile. "See you later." She whispered as she walked past.

Later that night she sat in her room, sketching as Ricky brought her some supplies. 

"The orcs sent this stuff over."

"Just place it in the corner."

Ricky went for the door but stopped and looked back. "Hey, uhh... I was wondering..."

"Angling for your own shot? Sorry, sugar. I've tried goblin, you're not to my taste."

"Ew. No. I've seen where you've been. But, I would like one of those full body poses. Clothes on, of course." He added quickly. "Your work..."

"Of course. Maybe tomorrow. I have bigger fish to fry."

Ricky shuddered. "Whatever, lady."

Alone, she sketched as fast as her fingers would let her, tracing out important information, detailing the day. She tore the page out of the book, and wadding it up, tossed it over her shoulder. She watched it burn away. 

The polite knock on her door had her smirking. 

"Come in." 

Grogek pushed open the door and stepped inside before quietly closing the door behind him. He frowned at her for several moments before moving to the center of the room and tugging at his armor.

"No, no. Not yet, I like to draw it out." She winked.

He frowned at her. "The men were disappointed they didn't get their chance tonight."

She laughed. "I'm not surprised." Rough sketching, she sighed. "Oh, do relax. I'm not going to bite you. Yet."

He relaxed only a fraction of a margin. "They do not speak to me directly of what goes on in here, but I know."

"Do you, now?" 

"I do not trust you."

"That would make you the smartest orc in this whole fortress." Her eyes darted back and forth between the paper and the silently fuming orc.

"Where did you get the dagger?"

"I've had it a number of years. In fact it's a really funny story..."

"You were searched..."

"And you can search me again. In fact I hope you do. You still won't find it. And you can be VERY thorough."

He said nothing as he glared at her. 

"Turn around please."

"No."

She rose an eyebrow. "Aren't you supposed to follow my instructions?"

"I am the Commander here."

She sighed and shook her head. Holding up the drawing she had mostly sketched out, she frowned. "I want to get a good set of with clothes before I move on. Should I tell Grommash you weren't pleasing?"

His eyes were wide as he stared at the picture. "You..."

"It's not finished, I'll need more sessions. But for a starter it's pretty fleshed out." She pulled her sketchpad to herself. "I am asking you nicely, please turn around."

In a daze he turned around and she continued to sketch.

"You know, ever since I laid eyes on you, I've wanted to see what you hide under all that armor. It's a pity this war is what it is. I could draw for days on what I have seen. Such a brutal land leads to some beautiful bodies."

She could not read him with his back to her, but she could see the tensing of his muscles, the flinching of his jaw. She put her pad aside and walked over. Gently she laid a hand on his shoulder. He started under her touch and she sighed. 

"Tonight, we will stay as this."

He jerked his face halfway towards her. 

"I will get my payment another day. Relax, and just let me draw you."

Slowly she moved away, before sitting back on her bed and picking up the pad. He had visibly relaxed and she returned to drawing. Every now and then she would ask him to turn, to raise an arm, or shift a direction. Gone was the angry scowl, replaced by confusion warring with curiosity. When her fingers tired, and it was difficult to stay awake. She put down the pad, and rose once more. 

Elunara patted his cheek. "See? That wasn't so bad."

He snorted at her. 

She yawned before she could stop herself. With a laugh she shook her head. "Come back tomorrow night, ok?" 

"I don't trust you."

"I'm ok with that." She scratched her head before pushing him towards the door. "Good night."

Without checking to see if he left, she turned and walked back to the bed. She flopped facedown and was out. 

Grogek frowned for a bit, before closing the door and walking away.



For the Whored Ch. 004



The following afternoon, Elunara sat by her post in the courtyard, carefully documenting everything she saw. 

"Ok, I thought about it all night!" Ricky pounded his fist into his hand. "I know exactly what I want." He struck a pose. "Like this!"

She laughed. "You know you'll have to stay still for long periods while I get it just right."

"You got it, boss lady." 

She carefully sketched the pose and marked out lighting. 

"Oh, yeah, I could hold this allll day."

With a small smile, she began to fill out the details. He began to talk incessantly, but she wasn't listening. As she worked, her eyes tracked towards Grogek, calling orders. She added detail to several pages she had spread out on the modified writing desk she'd had a couple of grunts create for her. 

A line here, a scribble there, and she was able to draw faster and more efficiently with her new set up. 

"Man, my arms hurt."

"Take a break, I'm thirsty." 

"Right away!" He saluted and ran off. 

Elunara flipped to a previous drawing and contented herself with filling out the sketches from the night before. With a sigh, she accepted the drink from Ricky, and began to sketch the persistent little goblin again.

Finished, she handed him the portrait. 

"Oh man, you are one of a kind, lady." He hugged the picture to his chest. "The others will be so jealous!"

"Go then."

He hesitated. "But, uhh..."

"That's a command. You'll annoy me until you do so."

"Whoohoo!" He ran off, the paper flapping above his head.

She chuckled as she started work on another paper.

"What did he do to earn that?"

Elunara jolted, as she didn't expect Grogek's appearance. Calmly, she erased the jagged line that shot across her paper. 

"Not a thing."

"Hmm." 

She did not look up, as she continued sketching. 

"Grommash summons you to the war room."

Elunara gathered her things and collapsed the table down into its portable shape. She followed Grogek into the hall. Grommash was leaning over the map, his fingers tapping the table. He looked up and grinned. 

"Once again you bring me victory! You have proven yourself among my kind! Strange though it may be."

Elunara simply nodded.

"What would you ask this time?" 

"Freedom."

Grommash narrowed his eyes.

She waved her hand at him. "Oh, nothing like that. I just wish to walk freely around the fortress."

Grommash leaned on a fist on the table. "You already do that."

"No I don't. I am always on an invisible leash, led by Grogek, or whatever other peon is around to make sure I am where I should be. I have proven myself over and over, and have only wished to do what I want. I continue to do so. If I wanted to leave, I would have already been gone. Your chains do not bind me; your troops do not scare me."

Grommash looked to Grogek, a muscle twitched in the orc's face, but he said nothing. Grommash looked back at Elunara. "It is done." 

Elunara bowed and walked away. 

"I do not trust her." Grogek frowned. 

Grommash laughed. 

Wandering past several workers, she made her way to the tower on the corner wall and climbed. She shook her head at several of the passing orcs. Many had already been in her chamber. Once she was at the top, she set up her little work table before moving to the center of the wall. She shifted her body and moved her arms. Back and forth she walked across the wall, her eyes intent on the fortress below her. She held up paper, held up a pencil, changed angles; shifted her head several times, before finally sitting down and drawing again. 

"By the Gods, she's done it." The human guard hiding in the tree line lowered his binoculars. "She actually did it."

"Sir?" The young apprentice craned his neck. 

"Take a letter, boy."

Elunara sat down and began to sketch out on several pieces of paper. Grogek appeared at the door to the tower and marched up to her. 

"What do you think you are doing?"

She looked over her shoulder, to the dense forest. "I don't think I'm in any danger up here." she motioned to her papers. "I wanted to see this. Isn't it amazing?"

He looked down and frowned. Back and forth he looked at the scene below and the drawing on the paper. "Hmm."

"It's in my nature to like the open air up here, the wind is lovely today." She looked up and smiled her most serene. "You really should relax more often, Groggy dear."

He narrowed his eyes. "Don't call me that."

"Groggy? Or dear?"

He growled and then promptly ignored her, stooping down to turn the page. He flipped through several and came back of the one last night. 

"This is amazing. Your skill is superb." 

"I've been drawing all of my life, honing my craft for as long as I can remember." 

"So this is how you have earned the respect of my men."

She laughed. "What?"

"I have heard of your... methods. Under normal circumstances, you would be just a whore, but this..." He flipped to other pages. "Where are the rest?"

"I don't carry it all around. It stays in my room. Besides, it would be rude to treat such intimate portraits in such a brash manner. They are safely stored and hidden away. Only to be seen by me and at the request of the subject."

He just stared at her. "You are not what you seem." He murmured. Before standing up and walking away.

"Do be a dear and wear a little less armor this time!" She called after him. She stretched out and flexed her hands a bit, before buckling back down and drawing more. Once again she tossed a ball over her shoulder and watched it burn.

That night, she lay in bed staring at the ceiling. She had been drawing non-stop for weeks and her minor healing spells were starting to lose their effect on her hands and back. She sighed. Taking out a piece of paper, she scrawled across it, before wadding it up and tossing it over her shoulder. 

A polite knock on the door made her smile. Grogek had listened to her request and appeared in a shirt and pants, with soft leather shoes. He fidgeted in place.

"You really need to learn how to relax." She smiled and pulled her pad into her lap. "I bet it's been a long time since you've been without all of your armor, huh?" She turned to a fresh page. "At least, outside of bathing and sleeping." She tapped the pencil to the pad. "I bet you even sleep in some of it at this point."

He looked everywhere but her, his arms crossed over his chest. 

"Would you like a copy of the one in your armor? You could hang it in your room."

His eyes snapped to her. "How many of my men have taken that offer?"

"More than half." 

"Hmm."

"Since you're uncomfortable, we'll go easy again."

"No. I want this over with." 

She shook her head. "I wish you'd stop being so angry with me." Placing the pad and pencil aside, she stood up and stepped over to him. Gently she put her hands on his arms. "Tell me why I make you so uncomfortable." 

He stared down at her hands and said nothing. 

This time she reached up and placed her hands on his cheeks. "Look at me." 

Lifting his gaze, he scowled at her. 

She shook her head again. She took his hand and pulled him. "Sit with me." 

He sat on her straw bed, and she sat down beside him. Moving her sketch pad, she dug around until she found her finished work. Slowly she opened the books and began to flip through the pages so he could see. 

"Since you will not answer my question, then I will answer yours."

"Why are you here?"

She blinked at him. "What?" 

"I know you are hiding something. Long before you said it to Grommash, I knew that you were here of your own free will, and I want to know why."

"Fair enough." She continued to flip through the pages. "I came here to do just this."

"Why do I not believe you?" He sneered.

She shrugged. "I tell you the honest truth. I came here to draw everything I see. Everything. My bonus is that I get to draw the thing I really want." 

"How does this help anyone?"

She stood up and went to another shelf. "It serves my purpose fair enough." She pulled out a sheaf of papers before sitting back down.

"You see, I am very different from everyone else. In my kind, we live for longer than most of the lesser races, and as such tend to see other races as somewhere below us. Ages ago, our kind took a blow to our immorality and have never recovered." She smiled woefully at him.

"So we tend to not form partnerships with the so called lesser races, and have almost a disdain for them. As more and more of us accept that we will no longer be immortal, we find ourselves on a more even playing field. Some of our kind give freely of their body, but only to their own kind. If we're going to be around forever, eventually you'd get tired of the same old, same old. As more of our kind came to terms with a lack of immoratlity, we began to see the other races in new light. Rather than insects that are in our lives briefly, we share a timeframe with them. More and more of my kind are finding partners with the others. 

Me, however, am the oddest of the odd. Not only do I see other races as equals, I see them as sexual partners. More than giving freely to my own kind, I give freely to any kind. My kind is so repulsed by my actions that I have been cast out. Our leader has actually told me to never go back. I am not allowed in my own city."

She smiled at him. "Can you image? Banished from your own homeland, for who you want to fuck?"

With a shrug, she opened up the sheaf of papers. "From the time I felt those sexual urges, I began to document the men I have been with." She held up a drawing of a naked night elf. "It's a rough drawing, and one of my first true works."

Grogek blinked at the drawing before coughing into his fist. 

She slowly flipped through. "I enjoy the male body. In fact, I can't get enough of it." She laughed. "There is some part of me that is addicted to trying them all out. I do not care their race; I do not care their size. I draw them in their armor," She held up a drawing. "I draw them in regular clothes" she held up another, "I draw them naked and relaxed." She held up a third, "and finally, I draw them in full arousal." She held up the last. 

Tucking the papers back in their order, she flipped through and pointed them out. "I don't even have half of my drawings here, I have them hidden away in a place that only I can find. These are my prized possessions. They are not really conquests to be had, but rather mementos of a portion of each person's spirit. They were friends, they were enemies. It did not matter, so long as I got to enjoy their bodies as I saw fit." 

She held up a picture of a reclining night elf. "But after awhile, I began to realize how much I hurt them."

Grogek shifted his attention her face, intent on her words.

"They thought more of me than I did of them. To each one, I was something special. To me, they were a means to an end. One day I began to see what I was doing to them. When they say a trail of broken hearts, they aren't kidding. This is one reason why the leader of the night elves cast me out. I had caused too much pain." 

"I don't form attachments like other people do. I can be friendly to someone, but not actually be their friend." She stretched and leaned back. "So, I changed my methods. Instead of seducing and conjoling them into being what I wanted, I offered a trade. I learned how to turn my skills into a business instead of a relationship."

She sat up straight and turned to Grogek. "So you see; I am here for a reason. I trade drawings and physical intimacy for favors and loyalty. Not one of my art subjects believes for a moment that I will be anything other than what I am."

"You trade your body for what you want..."

"I haven't had sex with any of them." She interrupted with a quiet voice.

He blinked at her. 

"I do not kiss them; I do not offer them promises. I am in control, and I use them as I see fit. I do not give, I take. If they believe otherwise, they are foolish." 

She stood up and stretched. "I wonder if any of them have massage skills." She muttered as she rubbed her back. 

"No matter." She turned and looked down at Grogek, who seemed to be working through her words in his mind. He picked up her hidden book and thumbed through the pages. 

"You are not what you seem." He murmured quietly. 

She reached over and picked up her notepad. Leaning against the wall, she began to sketch him sitting on the bed. 

"I want to see the men."

"What?" Her pencil halted above her paper. 

"The men that have been in this room, I want to see their papers."

"That's very rude."

"I am their commanding officer."

"Alright, alright." She tossed her pad on the bed and knelt down to the bottom shelf. She pulled out the papers and handed it over.

He traded the sketch pad, and she begn to draw as he flipped through them.

Grogek seemed lost in thought as he inspected each page. "What are these marks?" He pointed to the outline edge. 

"Those are my personal notes." 

"Why?"

"I like to keep track. Names, information, what I did to them, how they reacted. Those sorts of things." She looked at the paper. "I gave that one a hand job; he reacted well, but it was far more intense when I went for the ears."

"Huh." He flipped through. "What about this one?"

She looked up. "He tried to take more than what was offered. Little shit. I told him he wasn't welcome back to me or I'd gut him like a fish. I told the others as much as well."

"Hmm." Grogek considered this. "And they listen?"

"They know my rules."

"I see why you say you are not afraid."

A soft knock on the door had her putting down the pad. She cracked the door.

"Everything ok?" It was Ricky.

"Yeah, it's fine."

"Ok, was just worried. You been longer than usual."

She shook her head and gestured with her hand. "No, it's fine. Don't worry."

"Ok den." The door was closed.

"He cares for you." 

Elunara returned her attention to Grogek. "Yeah, I guess." She put some lines on the paper. "Before you ask... no. I haven't done anything with the goblin." She laughed. "Goblins can be some freaky little fuckers, but nah. I just don't see it."

Abruptly he stood up and pushed the pack of papers into her hands. 

"Hey."

"Good night." He walked out and left her gawking at the door.



For the Whored Ch. 005



The next day she carried her desk case around, but didn't stop to sketch anything. Grogek seemed to be pointedly ignoring her, so she ignored him. In fact, she didn't do much of anything until dinner, when she sat sketching the room, more in boredom than any particular reason. 

A courier came in the evening, after the meal. He breathlessly handed a report directly to Grommash. He opened the report and frowned. Grabbing Elunara by the arm, he pointed at Grogek. "Both of you, my war room!" He shoved her forward. 

She stumbled and caught herself on the door frame. "What the hell?" She tucked into the room before she was trampled. A backhand from Grommash and she was slammed into a wall. Coughing and sputtering she tried to pull herself up. 

"THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?" She screamed. 

"Sir!" Grogek reached out and grabbed Grommash's wrist before he could hit Elunara again. "What is going on?"

"This!" He threw the page at her. 

Wincing, she reached out and read it. "Huh?" She shook her head and looked at the map. "Huh." 

"This is a list of points they have taken, THIS is the list of MY men they have slain! THIS is where they have brought down Kargath! EXPLAIN THIS TO ME!"

"Look, when I came through, I knew what they did and didn't have. This was MONTHS ago! I have no idea what they're doing now! The last thing I gave you was sheer dumb luck that we got it. How am I to know what has happened after they threw me out?"

"What USE are you to me, if you can't prevent this?"

"How stupid are you? No wonder Garrosh thought you were his only chance. You're both complete idiots!"

"HOW DARE YOU!" Grommash advanced on Elunara.

"Sir, please. Stop this." Grogek reached out, but Grommash was faster, and knocked Grogek backwards. 

"Out with you!" Grommash roared, as he shoved Grogek out and slammed the door behind him. 

Grogek scratched fruitlessly at the door. 

"What are you doing?" Lama, a female orc leaning against the wall, asked.

"He's going to kill her!"

"Why should you care? It's just a filthy elf." She shrugged and walked on.

Huffing and panting, Grommash growled at Elunara. "You DARE speak out to me? I'll put you in your PLACE!" He roared. He swung wide, but she was faster and darted around his fists. He made several attempts to connect, but she always darted out of the way.

"All of that muscle, all of that body, and you can't hit a little thing like me. How pathetic."

Having left his weapons outside, he had nothing to throw. Instead he shoved the table at her. She jumped on top of it and landed a foot in his face. He roared in pain and swung around, trying to grab. She jumped and darted again. 

"I could kill you. You're just weak." 

He lunged.

"But you're more useful alive."

He grabbed her by the throat and began to squeeze. 

She clawed at his hands but grinned. "Oh, now you've got me. What are you going to do with little ol' me?"

"I will end your insufferable talking!"

"Hey," She gasped. "You've liked everything I've had to say so far." A cough escaped. "In fact, your men really like how I... talk, as well." 

Grommash blinked and released some of the pressure. 

"Boy, will they be ever so upset when I'm gone."

He began to squeeze again. "They'll get over it."

"Not even curious?" 

Grommash flung her into a wall. "Curb your foul tongue, woman! You're to blame for this!"

"I'm to blame for nothing!" She spat out. "How stupid are you to believe that they'd tell me everything? That I would know everything?" She gestured to the letter. "You're a goddamned fucking asshole! Sitting on your precious throne like a Warchief, when you don't know a damned thing you're doing!"

He backhanded her and she fell to the floor. 

Wiping her chin she narrowed her eyes. "Is that all you've got? You powerless fuck?"

He grabbed her by the throat again and slammed her on to the table. 

"I WILL SHOW YOU POWER!"

"Bring it! Give me what I've been WAITING ON!"

Growling, he ripped at her clothes. She tore at his armor, yanking free the pauldrons, nails digging into flesh. He held her to the table as he ripped her clothes free, and shoved himself between her legs. He was shocked when she wrapped her legs around his waist and dug her teeth into his neck. They tore at each other, fingernails tearing flesh, teeth scraping valleys into soft spots. 

He attacked her and she attacked back, giving as much effort as he. He growled in her face. 

"You tricked me!"

She licked the back of her hand. "Worth it."

He threw her across the room, where she hit the wall and bounced forward. He looked around, wild. He yanked his armor back on, pulled his pants up. He roared into the air before storming out of the room. Wild and angry, he grabbed Grogek by the shoulder. 

"Get her out of my SIGHT!" He stumbled pass the gawking eyes. A growl in either direction had orcs scattering. 

Elunara winced as she tried to pull herself up. "Well, that didn't go according to plan."

Brown arms came around her, and bleary eyed, she looked into the face of Grogek. Ricky appeared from somewhere out of nowhere. 

"How bad is she?"

"I'm fine." She mumbled, though the air felt like needles in her chest.

She was scooped up. Ricky produced a blanket from somewhere and laid it on her naked form. 

She looked around the room, wandering when she blacked out. Grogek was arguing with a female orc.

"Why should I? She's just a filthy elf. Even Grommash is done with her now."

"You will heal her Lama, or so help me, you'll be the one needing healing."

"Fine."

She grumbled as she walked over to Elunara. Refusing to meet Elunara's gaze, Lama began to chant the shamanistic healing spells. 

Grogek's hand was gentle as he laid it on the side of her head. "You are awake. Good." 

"Eh, I've been worse."

"What Grommash has done is reprehensible!"

"Nah. I started it. I just misjudged..." She trailed off, unwilling to finish the thought. "Doesn't matter, Grommash is a twit anyway." She winced in pain. Looking at Lama, she frowned. "Since when are YOU in love with Grommash?"

"I am not." Lama grit her teeth. "I have no more love for him than you." 

"Hmm. Red hair, green eyes..." Elunara studied the angry female orc. She snapped her fingers "Garthok!"

Elunara winced again as Lama jerked up and stared.

"I knew it. You're the one he's sweet on." 

Abruptly, Lama stood up and walked out.

"That probably wasn't smart." This from Ricky.

"Jokes on her. Garthok doesn't get off from anything I do."

"What do you mean?" Grogek frowned.

Ricky giggled.

"He'll stand hard for me, but only if I get him pictures of her."

"And I've been keeping track of Lama so Elunara can draw her unawares."

Grogek blinked. "You continue to surprise me."

"The taken ones are no fun." She lifted her head. "Grab my papers at the bottom. Look for Garthok. He's hard to miss."

Grogek found the stash of papers and flipped through. He pulled out a picture of a naked orc holding a paper, his mouth open and his hand in the air. Grogek looked to Elunara.

"He was reading me a love sonnet... for Lama."

"How could I have missed this? I would have never sent him over, had I known."

She tried to shrug. "It happens."

"No wonder she is so angry."

"Not the first; won't be the last."

"I will speak with my sister another time." 

"She's your sister? You have a sister? That just figures."

Grogek laughed as he ran his thumb gently over the cut on her forehead. "Grommash is beyond angry. It would be best if you stayed in here for the time being."

"That's fine. But I want my paper."

"You will have it." 

Ricky held up her drawing desk. "I saved this for ya."

"Thank you Ricky. Help me sit up, Grogek."

"No. You must lie here and rest." He turned to the goblin. "See that she doesn't hurt herself."

"You got it boss."

Once the door closed behind Grogek, she struggled to sit up. Ricky pushed her back down. 

"Sorry boss lady, he's more likely to maim me than you are."

"Well, if you can push me around, I must be pretty bad." She sighed. "I really need to get this on paper though."

He peered at her. "You know, I had dealings with mages back in Orgrimmar. I recognize some of those funny symbols." 

She glared at him. "Just help me."

With a shrug, Ricky pulled up her little desk and helped prop it above her so that she could access the pencil and paper. Not even bothering with artwork, she scribbled on the paper. Once she was satisfied, she wadded the paper up and tossed it over her head. 

"It's burning."

"Ok. Good." She sighed and closed her eyes.



For the Whored Ch. 006



When she next woke, Lama was hovering about her head. Deciding it to be a bad dream, she closed her eyes again.

"I will not touch her again." The voice was female, and clearly pissed off.

"Lama..."

"I care not what you have to say. Your whore is healed, and I will not lay my hands on her filthy body again. You would do well to be rid of her, or Grommash will be rid of you both."

She stormed off, as Grogek stood helpless in the doorway.

"Please tell me you did not give her my drawing." 

Grogek hesitated. "I... might have."

"Damn you, those are mine." She sat up, but felt woozy.

"She came back, on the condition I turn it over." He knelt down, and gently brushed her neck with his fingers. "You've been out for many days. Lama says you were pretty destroyed."

"Grand." Elunara looked around the room. "What is all of this?" She motioned to the flowers and random objects, and well as the piles of papers.

"Gifts from the men." He backed away. "It seems you've turned the entire fortress against grommash. He is not pleased."

"Shit. I did it again." She sighed and leaned back. "This won't do."

"What?" 

"Forget it." Elunara bit her nails, a habit she had long forgotten. 

"I must return to my duties. Grommash is furious, and time away from my duties only angers him more. Please," he emphasized the word. "stay in here." He frowned at her before stepping out and closing the door. 

She looked around at all the "gifts". 

A soft knock on the door caught her attention. "It's safe, Ricky."

The door opened and the goblin scooted in, holding a tray of food and drink. "Yeah, ok." He placed these in her lap.

"This won't do." She sighed. "This is not at all according to plan." She tapped on her head. "Where did it all go so wrong?" 

"I don't know what's up, so I can't answer you."

"I was asking myself." She sighed again. "I guess I lay low for now."

It was several more days before she saw anyone other than Ricky. During that time, she had to content herself with her previous drawings. When the first orc showed up, it was Lorros who snuck into her room. 

He shifted uncomfortably. "We are not allowed here."

"I can imagine why not." 

"Are you healed?"

"As well as I can be." 

"Grommash was wrong."

"He is a fool, but that is no reason to defy him."

Lorros frowned. 

She sighed. "Listen to me, and listen well. I am not important." Lorros opened his mouth, but she shook her head. "I understand that you all like me, but defying Grommash will only get me killed. If you want to save me, then continue to be loyal to him."

"But..."

"Promise me."

Lorros nodded. "I will tell the others."

"Thank you."

Lorros shuffled his feet. "Can I be... drawn again?"

Elunara grinned. "I thought you'd never ask."

Over the next several days, the orcs would sneak in to her room, for their "drawings". She didn't see Grogek at all, even when the other orcs helped her to wander around the compound. She continued to stay well out of site of Grommash, and recorded the gossip she was given. 

She lay in bed, sketching, when there was a soft knock on the door.

"Enter."

Grogek stepped inside and closed the door. She raised an eyebrow at his shirt and pants. 

"Ah..." He looked around. "I wish to be drawn."

"Do you now?"

"I believe I owe you."

"Uh huh." She changed her paper out and sketched the fidgeting orc. She kept her eyes on him as she worked. 

He said nothing, but did not look at her directly.

"Turn around, please."

When he complied, she continued with her sketches. Satisfied with her work, she asked him turn around again. This time she sat the pad to the side and stood up. He stepped back, but there wasn't much room. It was her turn to place her hands on his cheeks. 

"Why are you so nervous?" She wondered. "Are you..." She hesitated as she searched his face. "Blushing?"

He focused on her. "N-no." He stammered.

She smiled. "You are." She whispered in awe. "How funny."

"I am not funny." He straightened his back. 

"Oh, but you are." She whispered, as she laid her lips gently on to his. 

His eyes opened in surprise. 

Gently, she nipped at his bottom lip, as she slid her arms around his neck. Pressing her body to his, she moved her mouth along his lips. He responded back, his eyes closing as he enjoyed her movements. She continued into slow teasing nips, across his mouth, down to his chin, and slowly to his neck. She licked the curve of his throat. 

His hands moved down her back, gripping her ass as he pulled her closer. She could feel his erection pressing her stomach. Her hands came up across his chest, and she dug her fingers into the shirt. Constantly travelling down, her hands made their way into his pants and around his massive dick. 

She caressed the length of him, while pushing down his pants. He shoved em down the rest of the way, and she moved her hands up into his shirt. With some haste, he yanked the shirt off and threw it to the side. His hand gripped her hair and tilted her head back. They devoured each other, standing in the center of the room. 

His fingers went up the back of her shirt, and she tugged it off. His mouth found her shoulder, and his teeth scraped at her skin. She tugged him backwards toward the bed. Grogek's hand slid down her backside and pushed her pants down. Naked, they tumbled into the bed. With her skill, she had herself wrapped around him before he could think. Buried deep within her, he groaned and began to pump his hips up and down. She rocked and bucked beneath him. Her hand cupped his jaw as she enjoyed the flavor of his mouth, his fangs scraping the sides of her face. Her nails dug into his back, scraping rivets down his back.

Without warning, he shifted and rolled, pulling her on top. She sat up and giggled, the motion sending shockwaves down into his dick, making him groan. He grabbed her hips and lifted her up, shoving her up and down on his dick. One of her hands went back, gripping his thigh. She gasped with each thrust and slam. Leaning forward she whispered into his neck and licked that soft spot she had found to drive him wild. 

Once again he shoved her over, pinning her beneath his large form. The motions began to slow, as she shuddered. He softly drew his teeth across her flesh and shuddered. He flexed his hands on her hips and murmured in another language. He tried to move off, but her legs held him firm.

"Mmm I like the feel of you."

"If I do not move soon, you may kill me." He mumbled.

"Would it be so bad?" She whispered.

"It would be the best thing in the world." He used that language again.

She released her legs and he slipped down to the side. He buried his face into her hair and neck. 

"Your scent drives me insane."

"Does it?" She grinned at him.

"From the first day you came in. It was strange and toxic, and I thought you were trying to possess me."

She laughed. "Really now?"

He propped himself up on one elbow and ran his hand down the length of her. "You body is covered in so many scars..." He whispered.

"Is it?" She looked down. "You stop noticing after awhile."

"Mm." He seemed lost in thought.

"You can't keep me, you know."

He looked down at her face.

"I cannot change who I am, and I cannot give you what I cannot be."

"I know who you are. I accept who you are." He nuzzled her cheek. "But I also understand what you have done. What you refuse to do for anyone else. That is important to me."

She sighed. "As long as you do not get upset, when I continue to be who I am."

"I might even enjoy it." He murmured. 

"We shall see."

Using a word she did not recognize, he buried his face in her neck again.

Later that evening, they lay in the bed, his arms behind his head, as she sketched him. 

"It's not often I get to do this." She murmured.

"I am happy to oblige." 

In the early morning light, he gathered his clothes and escaped unseen. She sighed and watched him go. 

"Well, that was different." 

She almost jumped, but was able to restrain herself. "Can you not do that, Ricky?"

"Gotta watch out for my number one pal."

Elunara sighed and rolled her eyes.



For the Whored Ch. 007



She was out gathering more information when it happened. A commotion caught her attention and seeing the alliance banner, she raced to the center of town. There, chained to her post, was a human male. She rushed forward, ignoring Grommash off to the side. 

"What are you doing here?"

The man looked up and his eyes grew wide. "Elunara!" He cried. "My love! It is me! I have come to rescue you!" 

She narrowed her eyes and frowned. "Thomas, I told you, I do not need rescuing."

"My love! Do not forsake me!"

She approached the prisoner, his eyes so filled with love, like a puppy begging for a snack. She stooped down, and secreted a small pouch from him. 

"Why?" She whispered. 

"The mission is lost. Flee with what you have. These are the orders."

"Why end a soldier for one who is already lost?"

"My life was already over; I just chose to end it quicker. You are our best operative. Follow your orders."

"Understood."

"Make my death quick, please."

"Forgive me soldier, your death will not be wasted."

She stood up and looked around at the orcs. Grogek's expression betrayed nothing in front of his Warchief.

"Men are so pathetic. Easily controlled by their dicks." She sneered at the man, still looking at her with so much love and adoration. She slit his throat with such speed and precision, that his face never changed as he slumped to the dirt.

She spat on the ground and turned, pushing her way through the crowd. Once in her room, she sifted through the little pouch. Sticking her head out of the door, she motioned for Ricky to come in.

"What's up, boss lady?"

"We will need to move soon. I don't know how much longer we have, but be prepared."

He nodded. "I'll hook ya up." With that, he ran out the door. 

Before the door could close, Grogek pushed his way in. 

"You have made Grommash very angry by executing the prisoner without his command."

"Sweetheart, I've stopped caring what Grommash thinks."

He sighed. "If you continue to push him, he will act." Grogek pulled her into his embrace. "I would defend you with my life; though I would hate for it to come to that."

"If you must placate him, then claim I did it to prove my honor."

"I will try."

After he left, she sighed and began packing away her papers. Gathering them together, she created the bundle and cast the spell. Then came the various gifts. She spent the day cleaning up after herself and trying to figure out the best way to end her mission. 

Her thoughts were put on hold when the orc of the night arrived.

Over the next few days, the orcs would come and she would humor them and get what she wanted. When Grogek came, her mood changed and they spent the nights together. She was confused by this turn of events, and found herself writing down her observations. 

He was particularly creative in bed, and was the only male she'd met with the same insatiable taste for sex. However, he grew more troubled with each passing day.

"Grommash believes your continued existence is a personal affront to him." He finally said.

She looked up from her desk. "Then we will fight."

"What?" Grogek sat up. 

"Tomorrow, take me to the challenge ring. You and I will fight."

"I can't do that." 

"Fight me, Grogek. And with our fight, we will make a statement."

"But..." 

She sighed and laid down her pencil. "Would you rather I be dragged there in chains, or fight someone else? Worse, would you have me executed at his feet?"

"I would take you away from this!"

"Where would we go? Would he not hunt us both down?" She tapped her pencil rapidly on her board. "I might be able to find us a place among the humans I came with. If I promised them the knowledge we both have. It would be difficult to convince them to not shoot you on sight... but I am persuasive." She seemed to be talking only to herself. "Yeah, head orc of the orcs... that could work." She shook her head and turned her attention back to Grogek. "Tomorrow, we fight. We make a statement. Trust my judgment and we will make everyone see how we feel about one another."

Standing at the edge of the fighting ring, Elunara sighed and looked around at the cheering crowd. Many of the men she had drawn were less than enthused, but more were eager to see a fight. 

"I'm sorry Grogek." She whispered. "This is the most selfish thing I've done."

She stepped down into the ring and face Grogek on the other side. 

"I fight without a weapon!" She called. "Do you honor me and fight without yours?"

He spat on the ground and tossed the axe to the side. "Fine with me."

They met, face to face, in the center of the ring. Calls and jeers were toned out in the background of her mind. 

"Do you trust me?" She whispered.

"With my life."

"Then we are the only ones here. No matter what happens, you focus on me, and you follow my signs."

"As you would have it."

"Remember, it's just you," She nodded. "And me."

"Yes."

"Good." 

They walked back to the edges of the ring.

"FIGHT!" Screamed Lama.

They charged at each other, Grogek swinging his fists and Elunara dodging around. She kicked out, he threw punches. They grappled each other, and with a flick of her wrist, Grogek's pauldrons came undone and hit the ground. He stared dumbly at them.

"Keep attention." She punched him in the face. 

He reeled back and with a growl, grabbed her at the waist. Once again, with a quick flip, another piece of armor came off. They fought around the ring, with Elunara only landing glancing blows as she worked to get his armor off. Soon he stood in a shirt, pants and shoes. When next they connected, she grabbed a handful of his shirt and in another flick of her wrist, broke the thread that held it together. 

He laughed. "You fight like a lunatic!"

"You haven't seen nothing yet!" She called back. 

He swung, she dodged. She kicked, he maneuvered. They grappled, they punched, and hit and kicked, and before he knew it, she was holding his shoes.

"How did you even accomplish that?" He roared.

She tossed them to the side. "I'm full of all kinds of tricks."

"Two can play at that!"

She held up a hand. "Hold on!" She lifted a foot and pulled off a shoe, she switched feet and took off the other one. "Much better!" She took a running leap and locking her legs around his neck, pulled him over. 

In his shock he tumbled. Again they grappled, and this time he tore her shirt off. 

"I needed a new one anyway."

The hoots and hollers from the crowd were ignored as they fought. 

"You're stronger than you look." He grunted.

"You know, a lot of people tell me that." She backhanded him and dodged out of his grasp. "But after thirty years of jacking men off, you start to build some serious upper body muscle."

"That's a fascinating thought. You'll have to show me this some time."

She grinned. "How about now?" With a yank, she ripped the seams of his pants. 

"How do you keep DOING that?" He stared down.

Staring at his hard on, she licked her lips. "Targeted attacks."

"But you..."

"Do you trust me?"

"I do not understand you, but I trust you completely."

"Probably not the wisest move." She grabbed him by a fang and pulled his face to hers.

The crowd froze in shock, as the fight turned its tone rather quickly, and by time they hit the dirt, he was already buried inside of her. This time, the grappling and the wrestling had nothing to do with fighting.

"STOP THIS RIGHT NOW!" Grommash bellowed.

Grogek winced and pulled himself free. Elunara causally stood up and brushed the dirt off of her. 

"YOU HAVE TAINTED THIS RING OF HONOR WITH YOUR DIRTY TRICKS!" Grommash roared. "I will have no more of this filthy bitch in my fortress!" He pointed an axe at her head.

Grogek grabbed his own axe, and ignoring his naked body, he crossed his axe at Grommash. "You will not harm her!"

Elunara itched for her drawing paper.

"You would turn against me?"

She stepped forward and laid a hand on Grogek's arm. 

"Stay your hand, this was not the purpose."

"Then what WAS the purpose?" Growled Grommash.

"To turn the men against me." She gestured to the frozen spectators. "You have grown to dislike how much they enjoy me. What better method to turn them all away, than to see me give what they cannot have."

"Curb your trickery, woman. I grow tired of you." Grommash snarled.

"Let them wallow in their shame, and they will line up to take my head." She looked directly into Grommash's eyes. "Rather than turn on you."

He gave her a low growl before turning and stomping away.

Elunara leaned over to Grogek. "Now would be a good time to go."

He nodded and gathered up his armor.



For the Whored Ch. 008



In her room, she sketched everything. She was furiously sketching when Grogek walked in. She waved at him and he sat while she continued to draw. Tapping her fingers on the board, she turned and looked back at Grogek. He sat on the bed in full armor, his axe at his side. 

"We need to leave." 

"Yes. I know." She sighed. "I've taken too many risks." She shook her head. 

The door popped open and Ricky scrambled in. Once the door was closed, he grinned. "It's all ready to go, boss lady."

Elunara furrowed her brow.

"After that display in the ring today, I figured that was the signal to blow this place." He patted the contraption in his hand. "It's not enough to level it, I couldn't possibly sneak that much out, but it'll give us plenty of cover to run for it."

"Ricky, you're the smartest goblin I've ever met." She kissed him on the cheek.

He shuffled his feet. "Yeah, well."

She looked to Grogek. "Are you ready?"

"My blade is yours." He stood up.

She carefully folded her board table and stored away all her remaining drawings. Once her pack was secure she reached for the door.

"Is that it?" Grogek blinked.

"The rest has been shipped to my private collection."

She nodded to Ricky. "Blow it."

The goblin cackled as he smacked the device. A series of explosions echoed through as the orcs began to yell. 

Elunara yanked open the door and started to run for the exit she had already mapped out. Grogek was at her side, but Ricky began to fall behind as he huffed and puffed. With a groan, she halted in her tracks and began the double back. 

"I WILL END YOU, WITCH!" Screamed Grommash. 

"Shit. Shit, shit, shit." She ran for Ricky. He was knealing on the ground when the axe came down. She stood in horror as Grommash's axe cut through Ricky's side. She collapsed beside him, but his wound was too great. He reached into his shirt and held out a sheet of paper.

"Remember me." He whispered. 

She gripped the paper. "Always." 

With that, she jumped and ran, waving Grogek on. With her night elf swiftness, she was quick to overtake him and lead on. She came up short as she recognized Lorros at the door.

He stood there, frowning. "I knew you'd go this way. Saw you here too much."

"Lorros..."

"I could have loved you too." He muttered. 

Grogek pushed his way forward, placing himself between the two.

"The south pass is clear. Take my wolf." Lorros nodded. "Go."

Grogek nodded and continued past. Elunara stopped and stood on her toes. "Thank you." She kissed his cheek and left.

Down the pathway, a large brown wolf was tied to a post. Grogek approached it with caution.

"They can be very loyal to their owners." 

Seeing the wolf was friendly, Grogek mounted the animal, and pulled Elunara on with him. Together they rode until nightfall, when the beast began to get tired. Once they found water, they let the poor wolf drink his fill and Grogek slaughtered a deer to feed it. Sometime in the night, the wolf broke its lead and ran home.

With a sigh, Elunara opened the wadded paper and saw Ricky's portrait. "I wish I had thought about how fast we would all move."

Grogek placed a hand over hers. "You couldn't have anticipated it."

Opening her board, she carefully placed the portrait within. Securing it once more, she yawned. 

"Tonight we sleep. Tomorrow..."

Grogek placed a hand on her face and spoke in orcish. "We will face tomorrow."

She shook her head. "I can always tell when you've gone sentimental, when I can't understand what you say."

"Let us rest."

After another sigh, she pulled out her drawing board. 

"Can that not wait?"

She shook her head. "I prefer to do it while it's fresh in my head. Ricky deserves the best that I can give him."

Grogek nodded and lay down. For a couple of hours, she worked, recreating the scene in her mind. When at last she felt she had exhausted every piece of it, she switched to a clean sheet of paper. With care for detail, she recreated their path, and at last, their campsite. When she was finished, she wadded it up, and threw it over her shoulder.

After the the last of the cinders disappeared, she curled up beside Grogek, her shoulders tucked up under his arm.



For the Whored Ch. 009



She creaked one eye open and looked at the sword pointed at her face. Sitting up, she looked around at the group of men surrounding them and pointing various weapons in their faces. 

"Took you long enough." She said mildly. 

Reaching over, she laid a gentle hand on Grogek's back. He stirred under her touch. 

"Move slowly." She whispered. "We must show them we mean no harm."

He blinked groggily at her a few times before his eyes focused on the person in front of him. The muscles in his back tensed and he reached for his axe.

"No." She tightened her grip. "No, we can make this work."

"You're alive?"

The captain asked; the disbelief in his voice evident.

"Not for a lack of trying." She stretched, ignoring the shift of stances. "How have you been, Jordan?"

"Better without you mucking with the minds of my men!"

She grinned, and it was genuine. "Shouldn't you be hauling us away?"

"With that thing?" He pointed at Grogek.

"Oh, don't be rude." She waved her hand. 

"You want us to side with them?" Grogek growled as he pulled himself up. 

"What option do we have? Run from Grommash forever? Or take refuge and use what we got?" She whispered.

Grogek looked around with a growl. "Only because I trust you." 

Elunara held out her wrists. "The usual treatment I assume?"

They were tied and pushed into the back of a wagon. She leaned against Grogek and closed her eyes. By her estimation it would take a few hours to get back to base.

Night loomed close by time they arrived. Of course the townsfolk gathered around to watch the night elf and the orc be delivered to the General. They were directed off the wagon and led to the center of town, where General Renwa was standing. 

"I hope you have a good explanation for this." He frowned. 

Captain Jordan saluted. "Sir, we found them on the edge of the iron horde encampment. Finding the night elf, I figured you would best be able to handle the situation."

General Renwa shook his head. "Put them in the brig. We'll sort this situation out, soon enough."

Elunara lifted her cuffed hands and patted Grogek on the arm. "Don't worry, we'll be fine." 

"This is humiliating." He snarled. 

"Uhh... sir." A man called from the wagon. "I can't budge this thing." He pointed down.

Captain Jordan looked to Elunara, and after her nod, he turned to Grogek. "You may remove your weapon."

Grogek snorted a laugh as he reached down and grabbed the axe in one hand. They were led down into the brig and Captain Jordan had Grogek place his axe in another room before both he and Elunara were locked away. Their cuffs were removed and Grogek flopped down on a bench. Elunara curled up beside him, her head on his shoulder.

After an hour, she was summoned to the General's office. She had to reassure Grogek, but left him sitting on the bench, his arms crossed. 

She entered the General's office and Captain Jordan stayed inside as he closed the door.

"How's it hanging General?" She grinned. "Oh, that's right, 8 ½, a little to the left if I recall."

He snarled at her. "Soldier, report."

"Sir. Things didn't work out according to plan. Grommash turns out to be more unstable than previously estimated. Grommash is a man who cannot be controlled through his dick. No matter what tactic I attempted, I was treated no better than a well kept pet. I managed to gain full access to the fortress, and sent in detailed reports."

The General nodded to a stack of papers. "I have read your reports, your detail is flawless and useful."

She nodded. "Though I was able to gain the trust and respect of his men, Grommash thought me no more harmful or useful as HE saw fit. I tried many tactics, but he appears to have no recollection of even having a dick. I often wondered how he managed to begat Garrosh. Possibly out of a sense of duty to the clan name."

"So what went wrong?" 

"The Highmaul Raid." She sighed. "And I over estimated." With a shake of her head, she continued. "A runner came with the report of the Highmaul incident, and blame was placed on me."

"But why? You shouldn't have even been considered. 

"Grommash is just as mentally unstable as his future son. I suddenly and very clearly figured out where Garrosh's issues came from. Seeing an advantage, I pushed my edge, with..." She shook her head again. "unexpected circumstances. Using my usual tactics, I was able to provoke him into a situation that ordinarily I would be able to lead, but he seemed..." She cocked her head to the side. "Embarrassed. Ashamed..." 

Both men gaped at her. "What?" The General finally asked. 

"In most situations, the target feels powerful, in control. By giving them the..." A muscle twitched in her face. "By provoking them into the situation, they regain control; feel they have punished the wrong doing. It's a disgusting frame of mind, and one I try to avoid, but this time was different. He just wasn't right in the head." She shook her head and sighed.

"And?"

"From there, it deteriorated. Instead of an object to be dominated, I became the symbol of his shame, of his lack of manhood. His own men turned on him. It is through their diligence that I even live. From what I gather, he had broken just about every bone in my body. Grogek, the orc we now have in our custody, forced his own sister to heal me."

"What of this orc?"

"I have him under my full control." 

General Renwa tapped his fingers on the desk. "And you believe he will be useful?"

"Yes."

"What of the goblin? Your report says you were bringing one with you."

"He..." She hesitated for the first time. "He was slain in the escape. There was a miscalculation..."

"Goblins." Renwa said by way of dismissal. "What of Grommash's men?"

Elunara cleared her throat and straightened up. "I made a difficult and risky call, but I managed to desecrate what they consider holy ground. They will not be seeking me out."

"Hmm." The General folded his hands in front of him. "The last thing we need is a rouge band of Orcs trying a stupid rescue." 

"That was the thought, sir." 

"And you cover story, how did it hold up?"

"I believe you have read that part of my report."

"I have."

"The orc believes it completely. You revile me just as much as you do him. It should stay that way."

"Understood."

"What do you plan to do with him?"

"I will extract as much information from him as possible. I recommend letting me lead on that, sir."

"As always." He stood up. "And if he proves uncooperative?"

"You've worked with me before, sir."

"Yes. Yes, I have." He said quietly. "Keep me posted."

Elunara held up her wrists. With a confused look on his face, Captain Jordan re-cuffed her. 

"One more thing." The General said quietly. 

Elunara looked back.

"What of soldier Isaac?"

"Was that his name?" At the General's nod, she sighed. "He died with dignity."

"Good." He rubbed his eyes. "Some of the troops are coming through the portals damaged. It did something to his insides, he didn't have long."

She nodded and looked to the door.

Once the night elf was back in the guard's hands, he turned to the General.

"I am very confused. I heard the entire thing, yet I feel like I was left out of the conversation."

General Renwa walked to the window and watched them lead Elunara away. 

"She is our best operative. Cunning, ruthless. ...Uses her body as a bargaining chip in some of the most dangerous and difficult information gathering missions. Her work is unparalleled."

"But to bring in an orc...?" 

"I trust her judgment completely." He looked toward the stack of papers. "I have seen her slit the throat of a man she just stepped out of bed with. I have seen her look into the most love sick of eyes, and kill with such precision that they died with that look upon their face." He sat back down. "She told me once... that she believed her emotions to be dead." Renwa looked directly at Jordan. "I believe her."



For the Whored Ch. 010



The following morning found her curled up under Grogek's arm. She was comfy and they weren't going anywhere, so she snuggled down further. 

"I am sorry I do not have a blanket." He whispered. 

"It's fine. Maybe I'll bitch at them later."

"Do you trust these people? They left you out to die."

"Sorry, sugar. You're my bargaining chip." 

"Am I now?"

She sat up, but he tugged her back down. "Well, yes. I mean... You're Grommash's top guy. You know all the stuff. I am the little night elf who can control the big strong orc. It's the perfect scam."

"Hmm." He nodded. "Very well. I agree your plan has merit."

"We keep them thinking we're useful enough, and they'll be eating out of my hand."

He laughed and said something in orcish.

"You're doing it again."

"I said; you are my cunning she-wolf."

"General Renwa requires your presence." 

Elunara popped her head up and looked over. Captain Jordan looked decidedly more uncomfortable today. She climbed over Grogek and stretched. Grogek and Jordan eyed each other warily.

She looked over her shoulder and smiled. "I'll see what I can do about that blanket." 

The door was open and she patted Captain Jordan on the chest. "Let's forgo those nasty cuffs. You can chain me up later." She winked. "But there's no need for formality when you've clearly got both of us stuck."

Captain Jordan grit his teeth. "Fine." 

After they were outside, he muttered to her. "Don't you think that provoking him with mindless flirting is a bad idea?"

Elunara resisted the urge to roll her eyes. "If I am not who he thinks I am, he is more likely to be provoked."

When they entered the general's office, he was staring out of the window.

"For the record, I am bargaining for better accommodations."

"Noted."

"The orc has agreed to my "plan". We will make ourselves useful in exchange for our continued existence in your town."

"That was fast."

Elunara raised an eyebrow.

"Right. I forgot who I'm talking to." General Renwa let out a breath. "I don't know why I expected any less." He paced. "I will have to clear out a bunker just to house the both of you. Keep an eye on him."

"He shouldn't give us any trouble. I will handle him if he does."

Renwa nodded. "Keep me posted."

"I shouldn't go back so soon. He'll suspect something."

"This is true." Renwa sighed. "The situation is tiring. We can send soldiers through, but it is difficult to get them in one piece, or to send them home." He flopped down in his chair. "Some days I don't know how to improve morale."

Elunara tapped her fingers to her chin. 

"Now, with the orc in town, people are nervous." He shook his head. "I trust you implicitly, but they do not."

"Let me handle the population. Meanwhile, I have another idea."

"Enlighten me." 

"We let the orc train the men."

"Are you CRAZY?" Captain Jordan was outraged.

"It's a solid plan." She continued. "He was one of the top of the Iron Horde. He has trained some of their best combatants. His training regime is something of a marvel to watch. His brutality is unmatched. With that orc training our men, they will be the most prepared soldiers we have. After he's through, they'll be throwing bodies at us to train." 

"That's lunacy."

"No. I agree with her." General shook his head.

She gave Jordan a mild look. "He is a warrior; a strong beast who will eventually get bored. I am not the type who will keep him entertained for too terribly long. When he gets bored, what would you have us do? Kill him?" She shrugged. "We could. I have no problem doing it myself, but why waste the talent?"

"How would you arrange it?" General Renwa furrowed his brow.

"I will make him think it is his idea. Give me a few days. He'll be all ours."

Renwa nodded. "Let it be done."

Captain Jordan escorted her out. "You're insane."

Elunara stopped and turned on him. "Do you know my call sign?"

He blinked at her.

"Do you?"

"No."

"It's "The Whore." Do you know why?"

"I have heard..."

"I picked it." She interrupted.

He just stared

"I know what I am. I use it." She turned and left his side.

In the brig, she gave Grogek a wink. "See? Now that wasn't so hard." She waved her hands at the guards as one opened the door. "It's just little ol' me." She flopped down on the bench beside Grogek. 

Jordan gave her one last dirty look before heading out the door. 

"The General has agreed to consider my demands." She fidgeted. "I just want my paper back, dammit."

"You will have it, little wolf." He leaned over and bit her shoulder. "I have no doubt you always get what you want." His arm snaked behind her and dragged her into his lap. He locked eyes with a guard, who quickly looked away. 

She pouted. "My hands are good at two things. Neither of which I can do right now." 

He chuckled into her hair. With his arms wrapped around her waist he breathed onto her neck. "You spare them, more than me or yourself."

"Silly humans and their ideals." She muttered. "To get what I want, I must play nice." 

"You'll reach a point in which you cannot help it. I will be waiting." 

"Hmm. It seems you know me a little too well." She cocked her head to the side and he lightly licked her neck. She purred.

A messenger walked in. "I am to escort you to your new quarters." 

Elunara raised an eyebrow.

The messenger shifted uncomfortably. "Both of you."

The guards opened the door, but pointedly looked away. She slid off of Grogek's lap. 

At the door, he turned and looked at the two guards, who were doing their best to be stoic. 

"I like these so called "humans". They are fun to play with." He said as he laughed. 

They were led to a small barracks building. Elunara stepped in and looked around at the empty room. There were several beds and a couple of desks.

"This seems a bit much." She remarked.

The messenger coughed. "General says that you both needed the room. So we cleared it out. The whole building is yours."

"It'll work. Where are my books?"

"They will be delivered." The messenger looked back and forth between Elunara and the orc. He bowed strangely, and then took off running. 

Grogek ducked his head to get in the door, but straightened out when he came in. He moved around the room, pushing bunk beds around. "We will need to have a bed built."

"Yeah." She frowned. "We can make do with the floor for now."

Grogek pushed the unwanted furniture out of the room until a few small beds, the desks and some random chairs remained. These he pushed to the wall. After he was done, he shut the door. 

"I believe we can make do with the floor now."

"I like the way you work." She purred. 

He placed both hands on the sides of her face. His eyes searched hers. "I know who you are, and I know what you are. They do not see you as I do. They may be your kind, but they do not treat you that way. "

"What am I?" She whispered. "What am I to you?"

"You are my vicious little she-wolf." He rubbed a thumb on her cheek. "I am not your master, and you are not mine." He pulled her into an embrace. "You give of me your body, but not your heart. I will have to earn your trust." He held her away. "I am OK with that."

"I..." 

He pulled her close and gently kissed her mouth. He spoke in orcish again as he buried his face into her neck. She stared at the wooden ceiling as he licked and bit her neck. Her hands came up to his back and without understanding, hugged him tightly to her. He stopped his assault on her neck and nuzzled it instead. 

"You hear me." He whispered.

"I hear you well." She answered. 

He lifted his gaze and stared into her eyes. Softly, she placed her lips on his. His hand found its way up her shirt and she went for his. He tugged her shirt up over her head and licked between her breasts. He cupped one with one hand and devoured the other with his mouth. She grabbed his neck and shoulders and dug into flesh with her nails. Reaching down, she tugged at his shirt, and he leaned back long enough to let her pull it off. Carefully, he lowered her to the soft rug on the floor.

Slowly they kissed, tasting each other, with careful deliberate movements, savoring the moment. She ran her fingernails down his warm chest. He held her in his arms, and run his tongue across her teeth. He took possession of her mouth, devouring her very essence. She responded in kind, her hands wandering around his chest, under his arms and around his back. She scraped his back with her nails and he groaned into her mouth. His hand came down and pushed her pants off. She wiggled and bucked to get them off her ankles.

His erection pressed through his pants and rubbed against her crotch. His hand slid up her thigh and gripped her ass. He pushed her against him as he grated his erection on to her. Releasing her ass, he slid his hand down and around. Propping himself on the elbow of the arm still behind her back, he used the fingers of his free hand to brush up and down her sopping folds. He watched her face and her eyes as he slid his first finger deep within.

She moaned and writhed against him, with one hand still wrapped around his back, the other grabbing at his wrist. Her eyes glazed over and her skin flushed. Back and forth he slid his finger, using his thumb to rub little circles around her clit. Soon he added a second finger, and her back began to arch. He grinned as she clutched him, her insides rippling to her orgasm. For a little while longer he tormented her, pushing her over that ridge over and over. 

She grabbed frantically at his arm. "Take me." She whispered.

He lowered his face to hers, teasing her lips with his tongue. Slowly, softly he licked, gently nipping. Still his fingers worked on her. When she was panting and frantic did he finally give in. She pushed at his pants and he chuckled. 

"Why do you torment me so?" She whimpered.

"I love to watch you." He murmured into her ear. "To see you as no else can. I know you." He whispered.

He shoved off his pants with one hand, and his engorged dick popped free of his pants. She reached down and grabbed him and he groaned. The orcish words seemed almost musical to her ears, and she cared not for what he said. He adjusted again, placing himself between her legs. Inch by inch he worked his way into her waiting wetness. When at last he filled her with him, he began to move in a steady rhythm. She eagerly tried to push him faster, but still he took his time, holding her hips in place.

"Not yet, my love. Not yet."

He buried his face in her hair and neck. With gentle nips he drove her into a frenzy. She bucked and rocked against him. When he could stand it no longer, he gave in and let the orgasm rip through him, filling her up with him. Spent, he released the tension in his muscles. She curled up against him, almost as if sleeping. Concerned, he shifted off.

She stared at that wooden ceiling and frowned. 

"What is wrong, little wolf?"

With a sigh, she turned her head to look at him. "I've been at this for a long time. I've experimented with everything possible..." She trailed off and looked away. Taking a deep breath, she gave a mighty sigh.

Staring at the ceiling, she voiced her thoughts. "I have been at this for a long time." She repeated. "I lost count of how many lovers I have had, mostly because none of them meant anything to me. I used their bodies and they used mine. Many, many men have lain next to me and showered me with love and declarations and stupidity. Yet when you say it, something is different. I know not what, but I will discover it." 

Grogek put his fingers under her chin and turned her head to face him. "That is enough for now." He pressed his lips to hers. 

A sudden, brisk knock on the door startled both of them. 

Annoyed, Elunara popped up and strode to the door. Yanking open the door, she was met with the shocked expression of a messenger. 

Staring at her naked body, he began to stammer. "I... I have these... uh this... cart. And I... uhh"

"Is that my armor?" Asked Grogek, also standing there naked, amused by the messenger. 

"Go." Elunara stated. "Leave us be."

Grogek put on the pants he held in his hand. Stepping outside, he began to transfer the contents of the cart into the small barracks building. Elunara leaned against the door and observed the area around them. The people she could see, were torn between staring at her or staring at the large brown orc that was now in their midst. Once Grogek had unloaded the cart, he hefted his axe on his shoulder, and stooping down, made his way inside.

Elunara was pleased to see he had placed her modified writing desk on one of the beds.

"Is this all of your stuff?" He asked.

"No." She shook her head and opened up the desk. Taking a sheet of paper, she began to scribble on it. After some time, her work was done, and she placed it on the floor. Running her hands on it, she scratched out a few more marks and it began to glow. Slowly a stack of books and paper rose from design. She unloaded it all on to some shelves and desks. Going back to the modified desk, she pulled out Ricky's portrait and carefully tacked it to the wall. 

"He was a good goblin." Grogek said quietly. 

"Yeah."

With a sigh, she grabbed a handful of paper and put it on a standing desk. She began to draw. With notations, she worked and sketched, using several sheets of paper to design furniture that would accommodate them. 

"I'm going to take these to the General. If he's feeling generous, I might be able to get him to put in our order sooner, rather than later. You can come with me if you like.

"I will stay here." Grogek snorted. "Your town doesn't seem particularly friendly."

She shrugged. "I'll be back." 

He watched her walk out of the building and close the door. After a few moments he picked up one of her books and began to flip through.

"These are what we need. I'll also like some clothing, but I'll bring those measurements another time. I can't do too much in one go." Elunara tossed the drawings on the table. 

"I heard about your little stunt." General Renwa frowned.

"Stunt?" She blinked in genuine confusion.

With a sigh, Renwa leaned back. "Please refrain from wandering around naked while in camp."

"Oh, that." She shrugged. "Sorry, I tend to forget."

"I find it hard to believe you forget much of anything."

She flashed him a smile. "You'd be amazed."

"I expect results from your current project soon."

"We can get some right now. Follow me."

Elunara and the General walked down to the bunker where Grogek stayed. She pushed open the door and at first he greeted her warmly, but then saw the man behind her. When she closed the door, Grogek sat in an undersized chair and crossed his arms. 

"This is General Renwa. He's agreed to let us stay here, but won't fill my order until he speaks with you."

"Are you the one that left her to die?"

"Not his orders." Elunara interrupted.

"Lieutenant Russell has been reassigned." General added mildly.

"Hmm."

"The General here is an old friend of mine, actually." She gestured.

"Now, orc..."

"His name is Grogek." Elunara interrupted again.

"Grogek." The General nodded. "Why should I let you stay here?"

"You want information?" Grogek looked at Elunara.

She got up and walked to him, placing a hand on his arm. "Information is power. At least you don't have to strip to get it." She grinned. 

He laughed out loud, and with a smirk of his own, turned to the General. "You want me to talk? Let's talk."



For the Whored Ch. 011



Over the next few days, Elunara and Grogek wandered around the town, learning the lay out and allowing him to be seen, unchained. 

She left him sitting in the barracks, frowning down at a map. A quick walk, and she made her way to the healing building. Sticking her head in, she spotted the head healer, a dwarf.

"Hey Ina. I'm getting low on my tonic."

The squat little dwarf looked up at the tall night elf. "I figured you'd be by eventually. The way you go through the stuff." She turned and began digging through some bottles. "You're in luck. The Draenei have a potent flower on this world that's much stronger and works for the month." She poured liquid into a cup and handed it to Elunara.

"Sweet.!" Elunara chugged it back.

"In your case, I made it a little stronger than usual. Can't have any little accidents running around."

Elunara smirked. "Can't say I disagree." She handed over the cup.

Walking around, she smiled inwardly at the looks she garnered. It was always her specialty to stir up trouble, and felt the best when she was center of attention. She knocked on the General's door.

"Enter."

"Howdy do." 

"Things seem to be going well." He folded his hands in front of his face. "The townsfolk are not happy with me. They expect him to start slaughtering the masses at any minute."

Elunara waved a hand. "Perception."

"This better pay off, and soon." 

"You're entirely too tense." She leaned forward and grinned. "You know I'm always willing to help with that."

He sighed. "Don't even try it. Keep on task."

She shook her head and straightened up. "You're grumpier since they made you General."

"Does he have any indication...?" The General let the comment hang in the air. 

Quiet, she stared out the window. "He suspects..." She shook her head. "He's been trying to tell me something, but I'm having difficulty understanding him." She tapped her fingers on her leg. 

"Don't tell me you've gone soft on the orc."

She shook her head and continued to stare at the clouds in the sky through the window. Abruptly she turned to the General. "I have him well in hand. I will pick him apart, just like any other. Meanwhile, I'll keep him useful."

The General frowned. "Do so."

She left then and swung into the barracks to pick up her drawing desk. 

Grogek grinned up at her, but continued to examine the map. "Going drawing?"

"You know me, I can't stay still." 

He abandoned his map and moved over to her. His lips brushed her hair. "This place must drive you mad."

She laughed. Opening the door, she pointed to a far hill. "I'm going to go up there. I have a pretty good view. If you need me, I'll be there."

She hiked her way to the top of the hill and sat next to a tree. Adjusting herself, she watched the men in training. After seeing the Iron horde's fortress, she sighed. They really weren't ready. She lost herself in her art. 

A huge shape blocked the light. 

"Hello, Groggy." 

He laughed. "I don't like when you call me that." He sat down behind her, his legs coming down beside hers. 

She adjusted back, he leaned against the tree and shifted her backside into his crotch. For awhile he just sat there, his arms wrapped around her waist, as she drew. She was comfortable. Not just a physical comfort, but a personal, emotional comfort she had never experienced any other way. She sighed and looked over the training yard.

"They really are pathetic." He muttered.

"Aren't they just?" She scribbled a bit more. 

His hands began to move, and his right hand slipped up into her shirt and cupped her breast. The left one travelled into her pants. Gently he began to lick her neck. She mumbled and shifted, as his fingers slipped down through her hair to the soft wetness below. 

"I see you sitting here." He whispered. "A hungry she wolf, desperate for a kill." He slid a finger into her and massaged her breast with his other hand. "You want them." He began to rhythmically pump his finger in and out. "They're not enough to satisfy you," He slid a second finger and grinned at her moan. "But still you'd drag them to your den." 

Down below, a pair of soldier stood in rest. 

"Hey, man, look up the hill."

The other started to turn but the first smacked him. "Don't be obvious."

"It's the orc and the whore. So what?"

"Follow his left arm."

"Oh. OH." He blushed. "Gods, look at her face." He whispered.

"Any other," Grogek continued. "Would be jealous of his mate looking at another man the way you do." He nipped at her shoulder, and dragged his teeth across sensitive skin. "However, I just want to see you do it." He buried his fingers deep in her. "My beautiful she-wolf." He murmured.

Her body shuddered and her eyes glazed. She collapsed against him and panted softly. He pulled his fingers free and slid them up her body, resting his hands on her stomach. After a final shudder, she adjusted herself and looked over her shoulder. 

"Did that take some of the edge off, my love?" He grinned.

"I don't understand you." She said finally.

"I told you. I know you." He nuzzled her neck. "I saw you in Grommash's fortress, I see you now. You've told me much about yourself and I know. You require men. You want them, you crave them. One will never be enough for you. I'm not only ok with that. I want to watch it happen." He mumbled into her shoulder. 

For once Elunara found herself completely silent. She stared at the soldiers below. Grogek seemed content to hold her in his arms. She couldn't even bring herself to draw.

"They are just terrible."

"Huh?" She blinked dumbly.

"This is the best they have to offer? The Iron Horde will sit on them."

"Then do something about it." Her voice sounded distant to her ears. Shaking herself she returned to the task at hand. "Take over. Train them." She looked over at Grogek's thoughtful face. "You were the Iron Horde's best trainer, and they're going to need Iron Horde perspective." She rubbed her cheek to his. "Keep yourself useful, earn their respect and this place is yours."

"How do we accomplish this?"

"We'll take it to the General."



For the Whored Ch. 012



In the General's office, he eyed the both of them.

"What tells me that I should allow you armor and a weapon in my town?"

Grogek growled. "Your so called "army" is pathetic." He spat. "The Iron Horde will make paste of them. I know, I trained them all. I'm offering you my expertise. One you need badly."

Elunara laid a hand on Grogek's arm. "Sir, I vouch for him. I know my word doesn't mean much around here, but what option do you have? He's giving us the edge we're going to need."

General Renwa leaned back and frowned. "Hmm." With a sigh he tapped the table. "Fine. But you figure out how to make them listen to you. And no deaths!" He pointed a finger at Grogek.

Grogek snarled. "Pathetic."

"Alright you two." Elunara stepped between Grogek and the desk. "Come, let's get your armor and axe, while the General here makes the announcement." She turned to the General "Gather all of the soldiers. We might as well make the announcement to all of them."

The General nodded. 

Back in their barracks, Grogek put on his armor. "Tiny little human." He muttered.

"Well, what do you expect? You're huge, and intimidating. This will go a long way for them." She sat on a bed, one leg pulled up, her hands on her ankle.

He lifted his axe and examined the blade. "It's gotten dull; I'll have to sharpen it." 

"I'll talk to the blacksmith, get you time in the shop."

He hefted the axe on his shoulder. "What should I do, to make them follow me?"

"How about a demonstration?" She grinned. 

"Like the LAST demonstration you arranged?" He grinned even as he narrowed his eyes.

"Well, not with the same ending." She giggled. "No, let's show them what it's like to face a real Iron Horde."

Grogek nodded. "Yes. This I agree with."

They stood before a small army of men. Humans, dwarves, and other races of the alliance. They were under geared and some under sized. Elunara sat off to the side with her writing desk, capturing the scene. The General and Grogek stood side by side. The General stood straight, and any evidence of fatigue was hidden beneath a mask of discipline. She decided it said something about their relationship that the General would let her see what was under that mask. 

"Today I have made a very important decision." The General began. "We are woefully under prepared for the enemies we will be facing. It has come to my attention that this orc..." He laid a hand on Grogek's shoulder in a sign of solidarity. "Grogek, is willing to help us. He is formerly of our enemy and he is willing to teach us what battle strategies we will face; strengthening us towards a common goal. I expect each of you to follow his direction."

Elunara sketched their faces. The disbelief and the distrust. 

Grogek dropped the head of his axe to the ground. He leaned on the hilt. "This is what you bring me?" He looked around at the crowd. "This pathetic group is what I have to work with?" He looked to the General "I ask you for an army and you bring me CHILDREN?"

"Naturally, we do not send all of our recruits to the same station, but yes. This is all we have now." The General nodded to Grogek.

"Everyone's gotta start somewhere." Elunara leaned on her board, chin on her fist.

Grogek snarled. "Then I shall."

Elunara carefully tucked her pencil into her board and closed it up. Standing by his side, she appraised the crowd; their faces already etched in her notes. "I have hope for them."

Grogek turned his face to her, his eyes glittered as he grinned. 

"We're to take orders from an orc and a whore?" Someone called out. 

Sharply Grogek turned his head, growling at the crowd as he lifted his axe. Elunara placed a gentle hand on his arm, and he lowered the axe, stepping back. The General seemed to let out a breath. 

"You know." Elunara said casually. "I have yet to figure out why people think that word means anything to me. It's not even insulting." 

Grogek snorted and hid his smile. Only a slight twitch in his face betrayed the amusement he felt. 

"I think we owe them a demonstration." She turned a grin on Grogek. "Let them see what this whore and that orc can do." She smacked the back of her hand on his stomach. "One on one, you and me."

"As you wish, my little she-wolf."

The way was cleared and a ring was set. General Renwa oversaw the event. Grogek and Elunara stood on opposite ends of the ring.

"We've been here before." He said. 

She laughed. "Except this time, it won't end the same."

"Is that so?" His eyes glittered.

"Yeah, this time we're not trying to piss anyone off." She twirled the staff around. "It's been awhile since I've held this weapon."

"Of course it would be a staff."

She grinned. "Go with what you know."

"Would you two quit the banter?" General Renwa rolled his eyes. "Let's have a good clean spar. Can we?" He raised an eyebrow at Elunara.

She twirled the staff again. "Remember Groggy, if I even think you're going soft on me, you won't be using my favorite appendage for a week."

He roared in laughter. "So it will be."

"Begin." Renwa called.

She twirled her staff as she began to sing. The night elves in the crowd recognized her words and began to cheer. Grogek and Elunara circled each other.

"What are you singing?" He asked.

"Traditional war ballad." She answered before she continued to sing. He charged, she twirled and dodged. 

"The question is..." He swung his axe toward her head, but she ducked effortlessly. "Why are you singing?"

She slid up under him, tapping his thigh with her staff. When he twirled she hopped up. "The sentimentality is getting to me, I guess."

As they danced, taking testing swings, charging and lunging she sang, until her voice reached a fever pitch. He stopped and stared. At once she stopped and glared him down. "Let's begin." She growled.

She charged, using her staff to block the swing of his axe, shifting she pivoted and rammed the staff into his stomach. Stumbling back, he narrowed his eyes. With a wild cry he began his attack. The crowd soon went from cheers and roared to stunned admiration as the two combatants fought for blood. 

No longer lovers amused at each other, Grogek and Elunara fought to kill. His axe destroyed a nearby cart, as he maneuvered up and over. They struck many blows against each other, she was covered in small cuts and he in bruises. To the crowd they were out to kill one another. The fight dragged on, but neither showed signs of stopping. Finally he discarded his axe and grabbed her by the hip.

At once she hit the ground, her legs crumpled up under her. She blinked stupidly at her legs as she tried to get them to work again. He advanced on the crippled night elf.

"You asshole!" She cried.

He laughed. "I believe you said that last night. Though the tone was quiet different."

She crossed her arms and pouted. "That's not funny. What did you do to me?"

"What was it you said last time?" He tapped his fingers to his chin. "Ah, yes. Focused attacks."

"Oh, ha ha." 

"Here, let me help you up." He reached out to her.

Suddenly she grabbed him by the wrist and flung him down behind her. He struggled, but could only raise his head.

"Hey!"

"Serves you right." She laughed.

"Alright, alright." He sighed. "Help me up, and I'll get you up."

"Oh sweetie, I thought you'd never offer."

He roared in laughter as he hit the points in his neck that released the paralysis. Scooping her up, he jammed his fingers into her hips. When the feeling returned she swung herself up on his shoulders.

"That was..." The General looked flustered. "Quite a show."

"Oh." She looked around and flushed. "We had an audience."

"Wasn't that the point of this whole mess?" He muttered into her thigh. 

"Well, yes. But I... got involved."

"Of course you did." He tugged her down. "I thought you were going to take my balls of several times there."

"Pfft, and deprive myself? Not happening."

"Good Lord," General Renwa whispered. "You two weren't even trying?"

Elunara looked down at the superficial wounds on her arm. "No, not really."

General Renwa shook his head violently and regained his dignity. Turning to the crowd, he surveyed everyone. "I see I leave your training in capable hands." With that, he turned and walked away. Leaning over to Elunara he whispered: "Keep an eye on him."

Grogek ignored the comment, and his face twitched when Elunara groaned. 

"So you are my leash?" He asked. 

"Apparently."

"I'm ok with that." He hefted his axe and marched to the crowd. "FALL IN, MAGGOTS!" He called. "Or do I have to teach you how to do THAT too?" He growled.

Elunara tossed her staff back on the weapon rack and gathered her drawing board.

While Grogek ran the group through a list of his demands and expectations, she sat down and began to draw. She enjoyed the little bits of sadistic pleasure as he roared insults. With precision and care, she noted the faces, expecting a list of names from the General later. Each expression documented. There were already a few rebels in the pack, and she'd figure that one out later. He divided the groups and went through short drills to assess each person. 

He went for hours, only allowing breaks as he saw fit, or when Elunara encouraged it. When at last the soldier collapsed on the ground, Grogek let them go. 

"Pitiful." He spat.

Elunara folded up her desk. "What can you do?" She shrugged. "Come with me."

She led the way through the camp. When her own watch dog began to follow from a safe distance, she rolled her eyes. 

"It's insulting how they treat us." Grogek muttered.

"Sugarbear, I've learned to just not worry about it."

He threaded his fingers through hers. "I earned the respect I had. Now, I have to start all over." 

She shrugged. Leading him slightly away from camp and into a sheltered grove, she laid her drawing board against a tree. "Let's work on mending those... booboos." She murmured as she pressed her lips to his.

"I'm beginning to think you enjoy being watched."

"Am I that obvious?" She purred.

Gerald peered through his binoculars and sneered. "Figures."

"Hey man, what are you doing?" 

Gerald looked back at his brother Donald. "The whore and the orc are about to go at it." He held out the binoculars. 

Donald took the binoculars and peered through. "Oh, sick." He handed them back. "20 gold she gives out first."

"Pfft. I'll take that bet. He'll crop out first."

"What makes you say that?"

"She's a mission specialist. Gotta develop that stamina."

"I say..." She purred as she tugged at his pants. "By time we finish, there will be fifteen of them."

"Fifteen Huh?" 

"Totally."

He bent down and bit her exposed shoulder. Slowly he slipped his fingers in her. She dragged at his pants and when both of them stood naked he lifted her up and slipped her down on his dick. Pressing her against the tree, he slipped slowly and rhythmically in and out. She dug her nails into his back and purred into his chest. Working his tongue up and down her neck, he slowly nipped and scraped his teeth in that sensitive spot. Using her legs, she shifted and braced against the tree. With a quick shove, he was flailing backwards. She landed hard on top of him. 

He groaned. "Are you trying to kill me?"

"Not yet." She bent down and dug her teeth into his shoulder and scraped her fingers down his chest. She rocked and bucked, moving up and down on his hard dick. Wildly she tore at him, and he responded in kind. His nails bit into her hips as he thrust her up and down. She leaned forward and put her breast in his mouth. Gripping her, he pulled her in and sucked wildly, sending shocks up her body. With the ferocity of animals they fucked wild and hard. 

He shoved her over and buried himself deep. She shifted on to her side and wrapped a leg around his neck. He grabbed at her arms and held her as he rocked and bucked wildly. With a deep shudder he filled her. Still shaking, he hit the ground and rolled on to his back. 

"You're a wild one." 

"You JUST figured this out? I'm losing my touch."

"Ha! As if..." He blinked at her. "What are you doing?"

She climbed onto his hand and sat down, forcing his fingers into her. "Well, you're tired, so you just lie there and catch your breath." She began to buck her hips and fucked his hand.

Up on the hill, Donald handed Gerald 20 gold. Louis sighed and handed over another 20. Marty pulled out some mugs of ale.

Grogek watched her for a long time, as she moved in his hand. He obliged her at every move. After awhile he grinned. "I believe I have my second wind." He shoved her over. She grinned up at him and he scooped a hand up under her back and flipped her over. Thrusting himself deep inside, she groaned and pressed her hips backwards. Her fingers dug into the soft earth.

"Geez, I bet that thing would make you bite the pillow." Jerry bit into his sandwich. 

"Are you looking at the guy's junk?" Steve made a sound of disgust. 

"Oh, like you weren't curious." Jerry blushed.

"Would you two shut up?" Gerald hissed. 

Grogek grabbed her legs and wrapped them up around his waist as he leaned forward and propped his hand near her head. "Mine." He whispered with a growl. "My beautiful she-wolf." he purred.

She shifted and rocked, crying out while the orgasm ripped through her body. She panted and let go with her legs. He shifted and pulled her into his arms. They lay there for a little while, panting and gasping. 

She stood up and stretched her back out. She stepped over him and grinned. The glint in his eye made her lick her lips. All at once she stooped down and slipped her mouth over his cock. He groaned and gripped the sides of her head.

On the hill, gold switched several hands. 

She sucked and teased, gripped and massaged. When at last she had enough of the play, she used her skill to bring him out. He released her head, expecting her to move off as before, but this time she drank of him. 

Once again, gold changed hands.

He watched her as she went to her things and pulled out a skin of water and drank it down. He said nothing as he walked to her and laid his lips upon hers. She blushed. Actually blushed for the first time in ages. No words were spoken as he touched her face. She shook her head and motioned. He nodded. Stooping down, in one scoop he picked her up and put her legs over his shoulders. She grinned down at him. Using a fang, he tickled the inside of her thigh. She giggled with a gasp. 

Shaking her head from one side to the other, she considered and then pointed. He laid her on the grass and buried his face into her crotch. She gasped and giggled. "Ok, apparently I'm... eep! Ticklish!"

He looked up and at her and grinned. "Is that so?"

"Oh shit." Her eyes went wide. "Forget I said... EEEE!" He teased and tormented, licked and shifted. Using his fingers and his tongue he slurped at her. He shifted his head back and forth and the fangs tickled the inside of her thighs. She squirmed and gasped, her nails digging in to the back of his bald head. "Oh lord, make it stop." She whimpered. With a laugh he shifted and buried himself into her. She bucked against him.

"That..." she panted. "Was evil."

He scoffed. "You loved every bit of it."

"That's beside the point." She muttered. 

"I like learning new things about you." He murmured into her hair. 

"Well, it was new to me." 

"So, how many are we up to?" He licked at her neck. "You always taste delicious."

"By my count we're up to... nope there he is. We're at fifteen."

"You're good at this."

She shrugged. "I know men." 

"That you do." He murmured. 

"Hmmm so what should be our crescendo?" 

"Our what?"

"Our big finish."

"I think I know how I want to finish."

"Oh really?" She purred.

"Really." He whispered. 

Soft as a feather he laid his lips on hers. Gently, slowly, he savored the taste of her, of them. 

Joseph coughed. "Well, that... took a turn." 

"Oh, come on... you can't buy... that." Michael gestured to the two in the clearing and rolled his eyes. 

"Yeah." Jerry scratched the back of his head. "I'm out."

One at a time, the crowd thinned out. At last Michael and Gerald remained. 

"Yeah..." Gerald scratched his head. "That seems a little more personal." 

"Pfft. Whatever." Michael hunched his shoulders and walked off, leaving Gerald to his uncomfortable duty.



For the Whored Ch. 013



The following day, the miscreant soldiers appeared embarrassed, and this brought Grogek great joy, though only Elunara saw it in his face. General Renwa took notice of this and summoned Gerald to his chambers.

"Report."

"Well, sir..." Gerald scratched his head and had the integrity to look embarrassed. "The Orc and the Whore..."

The General cleared his throat.

"I mean... Grogek and Elunara snuck off, and per my orders, I followed them." He straightened up. "I followed them to a hidden location where they began to take part in some particularly acrobatic... uhh endeavors." He cleared his throat and stammered.

General Renwa sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose. "Tell it to me clear."

"Well, sir. Some of the other men found out about it and gathered around..." He sighed and hung his head. "To watch."

Renwa tried to hold his laughter. "Then what?"

Gerald cleared his throat again and tugged at his collar. "Well, they went at it for hours."

"How many men?"

"Uhh, sir?"

"How many? I care not for names."

Gerald seemed to be counting in his head. "Including me... 15..."

"Really?!" General Renwa sat up. "You let that many men..." He groaned. "Continue."

"Well... it's all fun and games, until it got... uhh personal."

"Personal?"

"Personal. It wasn't just a pair of horny teenagers going at it. This was... different somehow. We were spying on a real couple," He made motions it his hands. "Enjoying each other."

"Is that how you saw it?" Renwa murmured, thoughtful.

"There's no other way to describe it." Gerald sighed. "Everyone sort of feels guilty now. Me especially, because I did nothing. Probably even encouraged."

"Probably." General Renwa said flatly. 

Gerald hung his head. "Definitely." 

"Hmm." 

"How was I to know they actually love each other?" He muttered. 

General Renwa did laugh this time. "He may love her... but otherwise..." He trailed off and considered. With a shake of his head, he stood up. "While I am going to avoid punishing the others for now, I think you have earned yourself latrine duty for the next week."

Gerald winced but had the dignity to keep his mouth shut. With a stiff nod, he left. 

They spent their days at the training yard, and their nights wandering the town. People had stopped out right avoiding them, but the distrust was still there. They wandered, fingers mingled together. 

"The nights are turning cooler." He murmured. 

"I'll keep you warm."

He laughed and wrapped his arms around her waist. "You boil me alive." Kissing her shoulder he murmured in orcish. 

"I really should learn your language."

"Only if I may learn yours."

She cocked her head to the side. "Then we have an arrangement."

Every day, they worked together, learning each other's language. She even taught him to read some of her shorthand writing. He turned out to be a fast learner. She knew that teaching him to understand their writing was against current orders, but she found she couldn't help herself.

Grogek was explaining his methods to the General when a scout ran up the both of them. 

"Sir!" He panted. "Iron Horde sighted on the east of camp."

Grogek and the General looked at each other for a moment before they both took off. Grogek grabbed up his axe, and Elunara grabbed her writing desk. 

"Time to earn your keep, Grogek." The General muttered. 

Grogek just snorted. 

On the eastern edge, a pair of soldiers was holding a female orc at gun point. Elunara slapped a hand to her face. "Oh man..."

Grogek tossed his axe down into the dirt. "Sister! What are you doing here?"

"That's his sister?" General Renwa blinked at Elunara. 

"Oh yeah. And she fucking HATES me."

"Ah, good. I thought we had an actual problem." Renwa rolled his eyes.

"I've come to free you brother!" 

"I am free enough, sister." Grogek crossed his arms. 

"They have enslaved you!" She cried. "You do not see it, for that whore enchanted your mind! Break free brother! Return to us. Return to me." She pleaded. 

Grogek laughed. "Sister you are deranged."

Lama held up a piece of paper. "I have proof!" 

Grogek took the paper and frowned at it. "This is the drawing of your beloved. I see no proof."

"It's in the runes!" She pointed. "These here. They are magic. Our shamans have discovered the magic hidden in all the runes on all the papers."

Elunara made several eye movements and facial gestures. General Renwa gave her an "I hope you know what you're doing" gesture.

"Release her." Elunara waved her hand.

Grogek tossed the paper at Lama and she grabbed at it desperately. He turned and walked toward Elunara. 

"You would show her mercy?"

"First of all, she did heal me; even if you forced her to. Second, if Grommash believed her ranting for even a moment, he would be here personally. You face a bitter, jealous woman who has lost her grip on sanity." 

"She has you in her grasp!" Lama cried. "Do not listen to her!"

Elunara gestured with her free hand. 

"Release her." General Renwa said. "This is not worth our time."

"GET THE PAPERS!" Lama screamed. "THEY HOLD THE TRUTH!"

Elunara sighed. "Look, I never touched your husband." She shook her head. "He came to my room and he stood for me, but all he spoke of, was you. He is a good soldier who follows orders, but all he wanted from me, was naked pictures of you."

Lama's mouth dropped open. 

"Of course, I haven't really given women a go, so I kind of had to make do with what I had. Instead of searching ME for papers, you should really search him." Elunara grinned. "I had to use myself as an example of course, but... alas." She made a vague gesture before turning away. 

"I'LL KILL YOU!" Lama screamed. 

Grogek was there in an instant, his axe held out at Lama's throat. "She offered you mercy; do not throw yourself upon my anger."

"Brother, I beg of you, find the papers. The truth is there!"

Elunara looked back and shook her head. "I do not hide my books. I do not hide my papers. There's no point. There's nothing to find."

"Leave, Lama." Grogek sighed.

She glared at Elunara before turning back to Grogek. "Find the truth and come back to me." Lama stood up and growled at the men with the guns. She turned and ran into the woods.

"Was that advisable, sir?" Captain Jordan asked General Renwa.

"Elunara has a plan. I don't know what it is, yet. But I will find out."

Later in General Renwa's office, Elunara leaned against a window, watching Grogek tear down a soldier for some slight or another.

"Tell me." Renwa began. "Why I just let an Iron Horde run free, possibly revealing our location to the rest of the lot?" He pushed his hair back in frustration. "It is only our years of experience together that I let you do that. 

"Sir, this is my final test."

"What?" He looked up at her, completely blank. 

She tapped on her leg. "Lama has been a thorn in my side since I first laid eyes on her. She is petty, jealous and perfect. Grogek is fiercely loyal to his sister, and even today may have just been a show. It may take a few days, but he will make his decision and he will go with her to it. I can assure you of that." 

Elunara moved away from the window. "He will either decry his sister, or..." Elunara pulled out the small blade and twirled it between her fingers. "Or he may betray us all and in which case, both of them will die. Meanwhile, we watch him."

Renwa nodded. "I would have rathered him slay his sister. We will try your way for now. I leave him in your capable hands."

That night, Grogek was excruciatingly gentle, patient and loving. They spent hours on each other. Satisfied, she curled up under his arm and snuggled up. Even as she drifted into sleep, Grogek lay awake and thinking. He stared at the ceiling for an untold amount of time. Finally, he slid out of bed. She shifted in her sleep, but did not wake. Going to her books, Grogek began to read.

For several nights, he would lie awake until he was certain she had gone to sleep and begin to read. When he was finally satisfied, he tugged several pages out of the books and rolled them up carefully. Checking her once more, he brushed a hand in her hair. With that, he turned and left.

The enchantment on the door woke her, and she made her way out behind Grogek.

He travelled a fair bit of distance, his bundle secured in his hand. When he finally spotted his sister's small camp, he came up short. Two guards held her at sword point. He was ambushed by several men. Grogek grimaced as he was shoved down. He knew he could easily over power his guards, but chose not to. Elunara appeared in the clearing. 

Her eyes were flat and dark; a vicious predator stalking her prey. Grogek's heart soared as he looked into those eyes. His she wolf was never a disappointment.

"Well, let's see what you have." She said; her voice emotionless. She held out a hand. 

One of the guards yanked the paper from Grogek and handed to Elunara. Just then Captain Jordan and General Renwa caught up. 

"So, what was he doing?" Asked Renwa. 

Grogek growled low.

Elunara took the papers and unrolled them. As she scanned the papers her eyes grew wide with shock. She flipped through the pack and stared at Grogek. He had the decency to look ashamed.

"What is it Elunara?" The General Asked.

She cleared her throat. "It appears that even I can be surprised, General. It is not missives or missions, or even my artwork. No. It appears as though he has brought several pages from what you would consider my diary."

Renwa also blinked in shock.

"There are other things written here, but judging by the set of papers he has found, he was after specific passages. I think it'll be clear once I read them."

"No." Whispered to Grogek. "Don't do this to yourself."

"I did it again." She read out loud. "Are men really so easily controlled by their dicks? Mother thinks I should apologize, but I don't understand what I did wrong." She flipped to the next page. "It appears as though too often a man lets his dick think for him. How easy it is for them to slip into trouble, almost as easily as they slip into me." She went for another page. "Non-stop I hear love sonnets, and men and women pledge themselves to each other. Time and time again. They argue and fight and they break up and then it just gets messy. Why am I so different? I enjoy how they feel, how they taste. Like an aching tooth. But I do not give my heart or soul."

Everyone began to look uncomfortable. 

"My emotions are dead. I understand this now. From the beginning, it makes sense. I feel nothing for them because I never had anything to feel in the first place. My body is what I feel and my body is what I use. I am told I can have a use somewhere else. Maybe I will go see." Elunara went for the next page. "I have been banished from my homeland. Funny how this means nothing to me. I will never see the beauty of Darnassus again, yet my heart does not break. I will explore this further."

She flipped through several more pages, reading out loud the damning evidence against herself. Soldiers began to shift uncomfortably, and even Renwa was having difficulty matching her gaze.

She raised an eyebrow at the next page. "I am enjoying the hell out of myself. Not only do I have them slurping out of my hand, I have all the warm bodies I can take. There is a female, I don't know her name, but she glares at me from the sidelines. Such intense hate. No matter. I am working my way up the ranks, one way or another. Grommash is a strange creature. I throw myself at him and he deflects me down. My knowledge says he isn't spoken for at this point in time. I wonder what makes him ignore me?"

There were only a couple of pages left, and Grogek alone continued to look at her.

"I make Grommash's second in command highly uncomfortable. It's kind of funny. He's the top dog of top dogs, yet he looks at me like I've hidden all the secrets. Perhaps he is the key to bringing down Grommash." She scanned down to the bottom of the page. "I have had Grogek in my room and there is something strange about that Orc. I need to gain his trust."

"Grogek is proving quite the interesting challenge. It has been many years since I enjoyed the company of another living being. Perhaps I can keep him like a pet." She flipped to the last page. "Grogek reminds me of a warm blanket. How odd is that? I hope he continues to prove useful to me. I might actually mourn the loss of this one." 

She rolled up the pages and looked Grogek in the eyes. "You know." She whispered

"Lies!" 

Elunara jolted before she looked back at Lama. 

"Lies! Don't believe her flowery words! Those were planted for you to find!"

Elunara exchanged a look with Grogek. She raised an eyebrow and only a facial twitch was her confirmation. She strolled over to Lama. The guards stepped back, but Lama stayed where she kneeled, her face filled with hate. With a sigh, Elunara stopped and cocked her head to the side. In one swift movement, Lama was dead, and Elunara wiped her dagger off on a cloth. 

"Dispose of the body." 

"Right away." Said one guard.

Elunara tuned back to the rest of the crowd. "Let him up. He's no harm to you."

The guards backed away and Grogek stood up. He reached out to her. "I never meant for you to do that. I only wanted to make her see..."

Elunara looked to the Captain and the General, pointing her dagger at Grogek's throat. "I slit the throat of his sister, and still he appeals to me. Does this not prove his worth and loyalty?"

"Your point is made, Elunara." The General turned to the men. "Come. Let's all get back to our warm beds. There's nothing left here to see."

Elunara stood motionless as the group of soldiers departed. Grogek had eyes only for her, and didn't as much as glance in the direction of his sister's corpse. Elunara looked down at the pack of papers in her hand.

Grogek's hand lay softly on her arm. "Please forgive me." He said quietly.

She blinked at him. "What?" She frowned. "Oh. This?" She held up the papers. "Meh. I don't care what they think. They can read all my books for all I care. I've never once understood why being me needed an explanation."

"I do not think your emotions are dead." 

She cocked an eyebrow. "Oh? Where is your proof?"

"Ricky." 

She froze. 

"I noticed you didn't read those passages, even though they were obvious ones to use."

With a sigh, she flipped to the correct page. "Ricky may have been the first friend I've ever had."

Grogek placed a hand on her shoulder. "I'm sorry."

"It's ok." She looked up at him and smiled. "I think I found the second friend I've ever had."

He kissed her softly. "I can work with that." He murmured.

Hand in hand, they wandered back to town.

Several days later, from her spot on the hill, she spied the envoy. Recognizing the symbols, she groaned. Gathering her things, she headed down to the training yard. Tapping Grogek on the arm, she sighed. "We'll be needed soon."

He nodded and then turned to the soldiers in the yard. He barked out a series of orders and after a round of "Yes, sir!" they headed on to the General's office. She saluted to the guards as she pushed on past them. In the General's chambers, he and the Night Elf turned to the open door.

"What is SHE doing here?" The outraged Night Elf slammed a fist on the table.

"Hello Tyrine. How've you been?"

"I refuse to deal with this whore!" Tyrine shrieked.

Grogek growled, but Elunara put a hand on his arm. "Again with that word." She sighed. "Can anyone else be more creative?"

Grogek snorted. 

"And what is THAT THING doing here?" Tyrine twirled on the General.

"He is our new training manager." 

Elunara's lip quirked at the businessy phrase.

"He's WHAT?"

"I can assure you, he's been quite helpful in training our men to battle the iron horde. I've already seen marked improvement in our men's fighting style."

"This is an OUTRAGE! Do you not have any idea what his Iron Horde have done?"

"Tyrine, you really need to calm down." Elunara added mildly. 

"I WILL NOT LISTEN TO YOU!" The enraged Night Elf panted. "It's your fault she died!"

"Mylune was a moron." 

"She was our BEST operative! If she had not been captured..."

Elunara started laughing. "Is that what you think happened? Then who ordered her to take sensitive information straight through Grommash's fortress? Because that's what she did!"

Tyrine's mouth dropped open. "She would never..."

"That little twit tried to assassinate Grommash in a room full of the meanest Orcs on this planet, and almost blew my cover!" Elunara grit her teeth. "Be glad I gave her a clean death, instead of the torture they would have inflicted on her."

With that, Elunara turned and left. Grogek gave Tyrine a low snarl before following Elunara out.

"I take it you're old friends?" He chuckled.

"She's still pissed I fucked her boyfriend."

Grogek winced. "That would be a problem."

"Even better, she believes I seduced him. When in reality, he heard of my reputation and wanted a quick swing before he made any major decisions."

"He was a bastard."

Elunara nodded. "I practically saved her."

With a roaring laugh, Grogek wrapped an arm around her waist and buried his face in her hair. When the laughing fit subsided, his face was still buried there.

"You two make me sick."

Elunara looked back. "Hello again, Tyrine."

She was shaking with rage. "I will see you disciplined for this. I will have that THING" she pointed to Grogek "Removed from the premises!" 

"Oh, please try." Elunara purred. "I would love to see the law enforced in this little backwater town in the middle of goddamned nowhere."

"Just as foul as ever." Tyrine snarled. With that, she stomped away. 

"Was there a purpose in that?" Grogek cocked his head to the side. 

"Honestly, I had a feeling the envoy would be looking for Mylune, I had no idea Tyrine had come through the portal."



For the Whored Ch. 014



Elunara sat on the hill and sighed at the scene down below. With all due diligence she recorded every moment of every day in her books. Still it wasn't enough. They wouldn't send her out on assignment because of Grogek. Oh, they trusted him well enough, but no one wanted to take the risk that he may be upset by her leaving. 

"You're pouting again." 

"They're all idiots." She muttered.

Grogek sat down behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist. "You are a trapped wolf, with no meat to bite."

"That's a tidy summary."

He propped his chin on her shoulder. "I see it in your face, in your eyes. When a well toned male walks past, you're a she-wolf on a hunt. I watch you, and I see it in your face. How many times would they have sent you out by now?"

"A lot. Or saved me for one major operation. But I would be out there by now."

"Doing what you love, seducing strange men." He nipped at her shoulder. "I'm sorry they leash you to me like this."

"I'd be happier if everyone wasn't afraid of me. Of you." She sighed and leaned back and enjoyed his teeth digging into that sensitive spot on her neck. "I flirt with them and they skitter away like terrified mice." Reaching her hand back behind her, she grabbed his growing erection. "Not that you aren't plenty adequate."

He purred into her neck and slipped his hand in her pants. "You offer me this, as if I haven't already spoken of it. I know what you require my love. I will give it to you anyway I can." He slid a finger in her. "We were in the same spot as I recall." He slid the second one in and grinned as she shifted hard against him. The other hand he slid up her shirt, gripping her beast as he held her against him. 

"I want you to have them. I want you to have your own army of well bodied men, to do with as you please. I'd tie them up for you and watch you devour one after the other." Faster, he pumped his fingers in and out as he drove her up. "See the looks on their faces when they discover that they are merely your playthings." Her backside ground against his erection as she helplessly tried to grab on to his legs. 

"I will watch you play with them. Touch them, taste them, and enjoy their bodies like a cat. And when they are spent, I will still know that you are mine." He buried his fingers deep in her and held her back against him. 

She could feel his orgasm against her back, even though he still wore his pants. He slowed his fingers and gently licked and nipped at her neck. 

"Do you think I do not understand the significance of the other day?" He murmured. "You took me in. You drank me and kept me. Even I know that is not something you do." He slid his hand up wards, and when he was free of her clothing, licked his fingers. "That was not for show, either." 

He wrapped his arms around her waist and held her more comfortably. He leaned against the tree and buried his face into her shoulder and hair. She was quiet for a long time, but he was okay by that.

"It's kind of terrifying." She said at last. "To have someone see through me so well." She whispered.

"Is that so?" He murmured.

"I wasn't even completely sure why I did it. Yet, somehow, you've already figured it out." She rubbed her hand on his thigh. 

"I see you. I know you." He purred. 

"I can't believe you managed to read all of my books."

"I am a fast learner. When I understood one thing is was easier to understand the next." He nuzzled her neck. "I'm sorry I betrayed your trust."

She snorted. "I expected you to read them. To do otherwise would be ignorance. I'm just surprised you managed to read all of them in a short time."

"Only took me about four days."

"Huh."

"As for the other reason you're up here pouting..." He bit her shoulder. "I'm certain you will think of something."

"Hmm."

"You want to WHAT?" General Renwa blinked several times and then rubbed his eyes.

"I am offering a service to the people." She began. Opening her drawing table, she took out several drawings and laid them on the table. "We are looking at a new war on a new land. Some of these people haven't had time or money to have a portrait made. I am offering to draw people in detail. To give them a memento to keep with them. Maybe a mother would like to have a picture of her son before he is shipped off to war." She laid out her most tasteful full body drawings. "Maybe even I give the undertaker something to identify a body with. The more detailed a picture I can give them, the more likely their bodies will be returned to their families. I would document scars, tattoos, things that cannot be erased from a person."

"Is this a ploy to get naked men in your room again?"

She shot him a grin. "That's just a side benefit."

"They won't do it." He stated flatly.

Elunara rolled her eyes. "Everyone's afraid of the big bad orc. Trust me sir, he and I have discussed it. At length. He agrees with me."

Renwa eyed her warily. "He does?"

"It's his own suggestion." She smiled. "Well, those weren't his words... more like "you figure it out and I'll do what you say" kind of thing.

General Renwa sighed. "Fine. FINE!" He shook his head. "But if you cause one bit of trouble..." He pointed at her as he cautioned.

She laid a hand on her chest. "I will do my best."

"I'll put word out that you're offering this service."

"You know... It would go a long way towards convincing others if you'd have a session."

He looked at her flatly.

She waved a hand. "Not naked of course. Though, I still say a little release would go a long way for you." She huffed. "No, come to my room and let me draw you, full regalia. We'll do a couple of simple heroic stances and post them in here. Show what I can do, and give a little bolster to the spirits."

He looked thoughtful. "I'll consider it."

"Good man!" she beamed. 

Several days later, she sat on the fountain in the center of town, her face squished between her hands, elbows on her legs.

"Still no one?" General Renwa asked. 

"Can we ship the orc back to Grommash?" She muttered.

He laughed. "I will sit for you."

She jumped up and the drawing desk clattered to the ground. "Yeay!" Elunara quickly scraped up her tools and dragged Renwa to her barracks building. Once inside, she shifted a chair over and gathered her things. 

"Alright, I'm going to have you stand in the middle here." She directed him to a good spot on the floor. "We'll start with a relaxed, just standing pose. Get all the form out, and we'll go from there."

He wandered around the room. "You've made it quite homey in here."

"I guess you could say that." 

He pointed to the picture on the wall. "Who is this?"

"That's Ricky. The goblin I promised..." She frowned. "He was a good one; strangely enough."

Renwa nodded and moved to the spot she had pointed out. She jumped up and pushed his shoulders back, adjusted his legs and arms. Once he was standing the way she wanted, she sat down and pulled out her board and pencils.

She quickly sketched his amused face, not wanting to lose such a rare moment.

"You two seem have made your place here."

"You could say that." Her pencil flew across the paper as her eyes dart up and down. 

Grogek is pounding my men into strong soldiers. The transformation is surprising. I thought we had the best." 

She laughed. "I wish I could go out." She said quietly.

"You know I can't let you do that." 

She frowned at him but continued to work. "Grogek is enjoying himself now. He doesn't need me as his leash."

Renwa sighed. "It's not him I worry about any more."

"Why did you stop our arrangement?" Elunara began to fill in features. 

Renwa jolted and then returned to the original position. "An arranged marriage. One I not only agreed to, but looked forward to."

"Ah." She considered her drawing. "Turn around please."

He turned and faced the door. 

"I take it didn't work?"

"She was a cultist."

"Ouch."

He gave a deep sigh. "I left on the first transport to Draenor."

"Double ouch." She tapped on the board. "I leave my offer open. Half turn please." 

"Does Grogek know about this offer?"

"He does." 

"Is that so?"

"Sir, he knows more about me, than I do. Quite frankly, it's creeping me out."

Renwa laughed. A deep rumbling laugh he had not felt in many years. "You? Innerved? I thought I'd never see it."

"I'll innerve your ass if you don't shut up about it."

Renwa openly stared at her.

"How am I to get a good profile if you keep looking at me?"

Renwa quickly faced the wall and processed the situation. He wouldn't call Elunara a lover, but he had spent more than a few random nights in her bed. She had always been a bit rough around the edges. Able to slip into any situation with the ease of an old pro, but underneath she scared the hell out of him. It had been ages since they joked around, and once he had a title to his name, she had severed all ties with him. Occasionally, it had been disappointing, but when she turned up as a subordinate, he realized that he trusted her judgment far above anyone else's. 

She may joke around and tease and flirt, and lord knew she couldn't keep her hands to herself given the chance, but she was solid, smart and ruthless. He didn't lie about her past either. He had been there, when she pulled herself out of a bed, still wet and naked, and slit the throat of a known cultist. She held out a roll of papers, grabbed her pants and continued on her merry way. 

It had taken an Orc to figure her out.

"You're looking thoughtful over there."

"Ah, nothing."

She shrugged in that dismissive way of hers. "I got it anyway. It'll look good on the posters."

"Posters?"

She grinned. "Just an idea." She held up the board. "What do you think?"

He looked at the drawings she had made. Over a series of several sheets of paper, she had captured him. "You've improved quite a bit since last I looked at your personal work."

"It's all I do all day every day."

He snorted. "That's secondary to your real hobby."

With a wink she flashed a grin. "Still open for that offer."

"I'll pass today, thanks."

"Today, he says." She snorted.

He rolled his eyes and held up a sheet of paper. "This is amazing, really."

"If you come back a couple of times, I'll fill in a little more detail; get better definition on the scars. Maybe I can get you naked, and do a REAL thorough job." She winked. 

He tried to force the blush in his face to calm down. "Ahhh, no."

She straightened up. "I'm serious though." She added quietly. "How many times have we sorted through body parts trying to make a whole person? Wouldn't it do some good if we had a catalogue? A living record of the people that came through?" She looked up. "It's one thing to... be me. It's another to do something that might help a mother find her child, a brother find his family."

"What has he done to you?" Renwa whispered. 

"He found my heart." She heard herself admit.

Renwa felt he'd been shot in the face. "What does that mean... to what you...?" He struggled for the words.

"To what I am?" She cocked her head to the side. "That's just the thing." A small laugh escaped her. "I don't even know." She took the paper from Renwa and laid it carefully on her board before closing it up and setting it to the side. 

She turned and laid her hands on Renwa's chest and before he could react, laid her mouth on his. With a strange sort of starvation, she ravaged his mouth. His hands came up, first across her back, but then he grabbed her arms and shoved her backwards.

She licked her lips. 

"What the hell?"

Elunara threw her head back and laughed hysterically.

"What is wrong with you?"

She put a hand on his chest and gasped for air. "Oh, Gods, I'm so sorry." She wiped at her eyes. "For this brief, horrible moment I thought I couldn't do it. I honestly thought I might be..." She shook her head. Dragging a hand through her hair she sighed. "That wasn't fair of me."

"Start making sense, before I make that an order."

"I'm sorry, sir. I've been trapped in this weird state and I just haven't felt like myself lately. That crazy Orc has gotten under my skin and I thought..." She held a hand to her head. "I don't know what I thought, but I was worried I may have lost myself."

"That is not an explanation." 

"Sir. I..." She looked away. "I guess only I could be upset I might want to be monogamous." 

Renwa choked on a laugh. He put his hand over his eyes. "Dear Gods, you are confusing as hell. 

"It really wasn't fair of me. I'm sorry." She shook her head. "I guess I just thought... that if I couldn't kiss an old friend, what can I do with some random... I'm not finishing that statement."

He laughed. "It's probably best."

The door opened and Grogek stuck his head in the door. "Is everything alright?"

"I'm fine, Sugarbear."

Grogek eyed the General before turning back to Elunara. "I didn't interrupt you did I?"

"Nah. He still refuses to take me up on my offer."

Grogek shrugged. "His loss." 

"That's what I said."

"I'm going to run these wimps through some running trails up in the hills. Do you want to observe?"

"Sure. I'll be out in a minute."

Grogek nodded and closed the door. 

"He really doesn't care, does he?"

"Pfft, he encourages my bad behavior." She finished cleaning up her tools and refilling her board with paper. "Come back tomorrow and I'll refine the pages so we can stick them up.

"Sure." General Renwa gave an awkward bow and left.



For the Whored Ch. 015



It was a couple of days later when she had her first volunteer. One of the male Draenei soldiers found his way into her Room. He tried to make several "heroic" poses, and was annoyed when she said she would start with the standard. 

She decided to ignore the scowl and focus on the features. Carefully she sketched him.

"So when do we get to the good part?" He sneered at her.

"Excuse me?" She raised an eyebrow. 

"Everyone knows who you are. And what you did with the General a couple of days ago."

The pencil didn't stop moving. "Is that so? And what exactly did I do with the General?"

He shifted his feet but didn't stop the scowl. "Well, I don't know EXACTLY, but everyone saw him leave here red in the face and his hair messed up. I've never seen his hair messed up."

"Hmm." She was having a difficult time capturing his feet, he wouldn't stop moving them. 

"I just want my turn." He pouted. 

"After you from this world or mine?"

"Ours. I was born on Azuremyst."

"Hmm." She would probably have to use old pictures then. "Turn please."

"What?"

"Turn to the wall."

He turned and faced the wall. "Why do you have a picture of a goblin on your wall?"

"Because I want to."

"You fuck him too?"

It was sheer fOrce of will that she did not break her pencil. "Why should it matter to you?"

"Just wanna know." He frowned at the picture. "Heard you were into some kinky shit."

"Face the door please."

"What?"

"The door." She raised her voice.

"Right. Make sure you get my tail real good. I'm told I have quite the fine one."

Elunara choked down the laugh, and resisted asking the gender of the complementer. "Face the other wall now."

He turned and eyed the beds by the wall. "Why you got multiple beds?"

"Because I want them."

"Well, anyway, everyone knows that's why you got the Orc under control."

"It seems that "everyone" is quite well informed." She said mildly.

"Of course, fucking the General explains why he even let an Orc in the camp in the first place, let alone train us."

"Turn forward please. Oh, and lose the pants."

"That's what I'm talking about." He complied happily. 

She continued to sketch out the rough details of what she needed. "Face the door."

He shrugged and turned around. "Everyone knows what goes on in here. Some even say you two do it in front of everyone. Michael said a month ago you two were jacking like rabbits in the south Orchard."

"Hmm." She made several notations. Checking her math, she tisked to herself. "Face me please."

He turned around with a full hard on. She frowned and looked at her sketch. Cocking her head to the side she narrowed her eyes. "Turn a little, make it face the wall."

He smirked at her. "That fascinating is it?"

She did the math and held her hand up, using her fingers to eyeball it. "Yeah. Plenty." With an inward shrug she drew it faithfully, all three inches of it. She considered the hair, but that still only counted for a missing inch.

"Would you quit gawking and get to working?" 

It was decades of training that kept her face cleared. Carefully, she sat the board and papers to the side and stood up. 

"Oh, yeah. So what are you gonna do? Because I've always wanted..."

She grabbed the hair on his balls and twisted. The shriek he made was quite satisfying. 

"You should know that I have spent well over thirty years perfecting the art of handling a man's private parts." She flicked a nipple with her fingernail. "I've also spent that time finding out exactly how many ways I can cause them pain." Gripping his balls she twisted them on themselves. He flushed white. 

"Aww you poor tiny pecker has gone into hiding!" She crooned. 

He whimpered and shrank backwards. 

"Get this straight. "Everybody" may think I'm a whore, and they wouldn't be that far off. However, I am no prostitute. I don't need payment, I don't want payment. I get what I want, one way or another." She released the tension on his balls but still kept her fingers twined in the hair. Shifting her hand, she pulled them tight to her fist. "If you think that you can come in here and insult "everybody", then I have the right to rip your tiny little dick off and feed it to the nearest starving animal." She released some pressure. "But hey, I'm a Night Elf. We don't believe in poisoning nature." She twisted a different direction.

"Now you will STAND THERE like a good little boy and let me do the service I so WILLINGLY offered. I will finish your drawing, and then you will make yourself SCARCE. Do you understand?"

He whimpered and nodded. 

"Good!" She said, brightly. "Let's continue." She released him and went back for her board.

A little while later he made a running escape. She followed along behind at her own pace. Once she was down at the training yard, she found Grogek looming above the trainees. 

She motioned to the Draenei. "Feel free to make that one's life a living hell."

He grinned. "Can do. Anything I should know?"

She shrugged. "Not really." She kissed him on the cheek and went back. Grogek watched her walk the whole way.

She was surprised to find Captain Jordan at her door the next day.

"Can I come in?"

"Sure." She moved to the side. 

He seemed to be fiddling with his helmet. "This is a bit awkward, but I've had a report..."

"Let me guess! He's a bluish Draenei with a tiny dick and a massive sense of self superiority, who had the nerve to call me a worthless whore who should feel privileged to suck his immense manhood. Am I close?"

Jordan dropped his helmet and gaped. 

"Got it in one." She blew on her finger. 

"Never mind then." He muttered before pinching his nose. 

"It's ok, he's a bit of a whiner. Grogek will take care of that." She snorted. 

Jordan froze. 

"Oh, don't do that." Elunara went to her desk. "He doesn't know what happened."

With a sigh, Jordan picked up his helmet. "May I sit?"

She shrugged. "Sure. But if you sit in my house, I get to draw you." 

"That's fine."

She sat in her chair and tugged her board over and began to draw.

"The General trusts you completely. I'm not really certain why, but he'd take your word over anyone, even my own. Admittedly, I thought he was insane, but I'm starting to see the reason in his insanity." 

"Why are you here, Jordan?" She asked quietly. 

"What did you DO to him the other day?"

She raised an eyebrow. 

He shook his head. "I... maybe it's private, but I want to know how..." He ran his fingers through his hair. 

"Spit it out. I know men, I do not know minds."

"He's been happy."

She blinked a couple of times. "What's wrong with that?"

"There's nothing wrong with it. It's just kind of weird." He shook his head. "It's gotten around that you and he..."

This time she laughed. "Oh, sweetheart, I haven't had sex with Johnathan Renwa in six years." 

"Does..." Jordan hesitated and bit his lip. "Does the Orc..." At her glare he amended. "Does Grogek know that?"

"In fact he does." She shook her head. "Why do I feel like I'm going to spend the next twenty years of my life explaining my relationship with Grogek?" She leaned forward. "Let me be perfectly clear: Grogek does not care who I fuck. In fact, he hopes this little art project will get me the willing bodies I require."

Jordan blinked at her as he flushed all the way up to his hairline. "You're joking."

"Not a bit." She shrugged. "He's told me repeatedly how excited the whole thing gets him."

Jordan stood up, bowed to her and walked out without a word. She grinned and continued to draw that stunned face of his.

A few days later, she got her first real prospect. She almost missed the soft knock on the door. Opening the door, she resisted the urge to lick her lips. 

"Um, hi." He held up a flyer with the General's picture on it. "Are you the artist?"

"The artist. I like that." She grinned. "Come on in."

He was pretty young, but the shape of him said he'd been suffering under Grogek's hand. 

"Listen..." He looked down at the picture. "I heard what you plan to do... making the catalogue? And I want in. I mean, I want to be in it." He cleared his throat. "I know that Grogek is training us to go against the Iron Horde and that's kind of terrifying. Pleasdonttellhimisaidthat!" He rambled. He straightened up and tried to look dignified. "I want to be remembered." 

Elunara's eyes tracked to the picture of Ricky. 

"If I should go... I mean, I'm only a grunt right now. If I were to go, I'd want my mom to know... I'd want my family to be able to find me. To have this picture of me." He held up the flyer. "Well, not THIS picture, but..."

Elunara walked over and put a finger on his lips. 

"I get you. What is your name?"

"Jerry, Ma'am."

"Alright." She positioned him in the center of the room, and picked up her board and sat down. "Now, tell me everything you got."

Sometime later, he stood in just his pants. He shuffled his feet and scratched his head. 

"Remember, I will never push you into something you don't want. If you want to leave the pants on, that is fine, but if you have any scars, tattoos , or identifying marks, I'll need to know so that I can recreate them for a more accurate account."

He cleared his throat. "Yeah. Right." He looked everywhere but her.

Her eyes darted back and forth between paper and subject. 

"I'm sorry!" He blurted out. 

She didn't flinch. "For what?"

"We... I mean, I... saw you that night."

"What night?"

He coughed and flushed. "In the Orchard with Grogek." He scratched at his head. "I mean it was... I can't really say an accident, but..."

"I know, I saw you." She kept her face neutral, but sketched his faces on another page. He was quite expressive.

"And you're... You're not mad?"

"Do I look mad?" She cocked an eyebrow. "How much gold did you make?"

He frowned. "I lost 75 gold."

She tisk'd. "Never bet against the house."

"Huh?"

"Gerald's studied my mission sheet. He knows what I am."

"Damn it!"

She laughed. "Sweetheart, you are a jewel."

His blush darkened. 

"You've seen mine, now show me yours." She purred.

"It is only fair." He muttered, as he fought with his pants. 

She was entertained to see that flush go down to the tips of his toes. Furiously she sketched at him. "Already a little excited are we?" 

He crossed his arms. "It's a little chilly." He said defensively. 

"I'll warm you up in a bit." She grinned as he swallowed HARD. "Let me just get all the fun parts sketched out first."

"Do you do this a lot?" He crossed his arms over his chest.

"I have lost track of how many years and how many subjects I have drawn. I enjoy drawing a target before I have fun with them. I can't tell you why, so don't bother to ask. I have seen more male bodies than anyone alive. And I enjoy the ones I'm allowed to."

"Allowed to?" He furrowed his brow. 

"I will not force anyone to do something they don't want." She added a few more strokes to the paper. "Turn to the wall please." When he turned, she continued. "I have had many turn me down, even after this. I have had many I turned down, because they weren't worth my time. Face the door." 

"What about Grogek?"

"Oh, I draw him plenty."

"Not what I meant."

"Grogek and I have a special relationship. He knows what I am and he knows what I want. Everything else is insignificant. Face the other wall."

Jerry looked deep in thought.

"Before you can ask, he does not control me. He does not say what I will or won't do. In fact, it is my independent nature that makes him want me so badly. Face me."

Jerry dropped his arms. "He doesn't get jealous?"

She laughed. "Jealous? Honey, he wants to see me happy. Jealousy doesn't even cross his mind. If I told him I wanted a ten man orgy, he'd find me ten men, tie them up in a bow and deliver them to the door."

"That's kind of insane."

"It's beautiful." She purred. "In fact..." She sat her board to the side and stood up. He took a half step back as she laid her hands on his well muscled shoulders. "Do you want to be the first bow?"

"I..." He was hyperventilating. "And he won't kill me?" Jerry whispered. 

"Not before me..." She purred as she slipped her hand down his stomach, ran her fingers through his hair and wrapped them around his twitching dick. 

He swallowed nervously. "I've never been this terrified... or aroused while terrified." His eyes watered.

"There's a first time for everything." She purred, before biting down on his neck. 

"Help." He yelped. 

By time she was finished with him, she was a little disappointed. Virgins usually were. With a sigh she patted his belly. "We're going to have to work on your longevity, dear."

"S—sorry." He stammered.

"It's fine. You did well enough." Even as disappointing as the hand job was, she knew that she only needed one satisfied customer to lure in the rest of the troops. 

"You can do that? Make it go longer?" 

"Honey, if I'd known you were a virgin I would have modified my style."

He blushed and frowned. "I was waiting for the right girl."

"You could have told me no."

He bit his lip and looked away. "I..."

Elunara raised an eyebrow. "Wanted to get it out of the way so you knew what to do when you finally found this special girl?"

He gawked at her with huge eyes. "Uh, yeah..."

"Sweetheart, I've been at this a long time. Would you like to try that again? It's not that difficult to start over. Even if you have burned your load in one shot, a stiff dick is always an entertainment."

He stammered. "Ahh, uhh no. No. I think I need to go."

She shrugged and stood up. "Suit yourself." She picked up her board and continued to work.

As he hastily got his clothes and armor on, she snuck in a few poses. When he finally headed for the door she laughed. "Tell your friends!" She purred.

He yanked open the door and Grogek filled the doorway.

"Oh hey, Sugarbear." Elunara called. "On break?"

"Gave them thirty, what's this?"

Jerry began to stammer.

"Just some midday entertainment."

"Oh?"

"You know me." She winked.

He snorted. "And you told ME not to pick on the little ones."

"Couldn't help myself."

"Hmm." Grogek shifted out of the way and after a moment, Jerry took off like a shot. Grogek laughed.

"You did that on purpose." Elunara scoffed.

"Couldn't help myself." He laughed and shut the door. "How was it?" 

"I wanted a meal, not a potato chip." She snorted. "He's well built, good size, but the staying power of a church mouse."

"I'm sorry." He buried his face in her hair.

"With any luck, he'll lead the rest of them to me soon enough."

"Good." He grinned at her. "Then we'll have our fun."



For the Whored Ch. 016



The following day she headed out to the training yard. She picked up a staff and examined it.

"What are you doing out here, love?" Grogek called. 

The entire training yard turned in her direction. Inwardly she preened. Giving the staff a testing twirl she pouted at Grogek. "I'm bored. No one comes to play with me." She gave the staff a little shake. "How am I supposed to hone my skills, if no one will let me practice?"

Grogek laughed. "I'm sorry, heart of mine. I'd drag down a hundred tasty morsels for you, but you told me the rules are different here."

"That they are." She twirled the staff and sighed. She slammed the staff into the ground. "So let's play."

He grinned. "Now, in front of all of them?" He teased. 

Once again she twirled the staff, twisting it up and down and around her before slamming the end into Grogek's stomach.

"Play." She purred. 

"What my she-wolf wants, my she-wolf gets!" He roared. 

The ring was cleared and they faced each other. He with his axe, her with the staff. He lunged at her and she dodged. So the battle began. He swung his axe down, she blocked with the staff. He took many swings and she dodged them. He came perilously close to cutting her, but she was faster. She hit him several times with the staff. He jumped and she ducked. She jumped, he swung. She ran up the blade of his axe and jammed her heel into his hand. He dropped the axe. She darted around, skimming up under him and whacking his thigh with her staff. He growled and grabbed for her. She darted left and right. After whacking his back again with the staff, she discarded it. They grappled. He lifted her up and flung her, but she was quick and merely bounced her feet off a nearby cart. She jumped and he caught her arm, yanking her down. She twirled and kicked, her foot jamming into his sore thigh. 

They grappled with each other, her unseating him several times, him tossing her around like a ragdoll. All at once, his armor pieces fell to the ground. He roared in laughter as he swung out. They landed glancing blows, and performed amazing acrobatic feats as they fought with each other. Elunara went in for a running charge, but stumbled and fell. Grogek scooped her up before she hit the ground. 

"Are you alright? We've been at this quite a while."

Elunara shook her head. "Bah."

He sat her back on her feet. 

"I need to go get something to drink."

"Are you certain?"

She waved him away. "Just fine."

"Alright." He watched her walk away. When he saw her head for the healer's hut, he frowned.

"Ina!" Elunara didn't bother to knock. 

The stout little dwarf glared up at Elunara. "You're late."

"Shit, yeah." Elunara flopped down in a chair.

"No need to swear."

"Sorry."

Ina dug around and came up with a cup. She filled it before handing the thing to Elunara. "Drink it. It's a bigger dose because of how late you are. Next time, I go knocking on your door."

"I said I was sorry." She muttered, before chugging the cup of tonic.

"I swear." Ina huffed and puffed. "A girl like you should be more vigilant about this kind of thing."

"Yeah, well. You took me from a daily to a monthly, it's kind of hard to re-" Elunara doubled over, grabbing her stomach. Her eye sight had gone fuzzy.

"Oh, oh dear." Ina tugged her around and pushed her on the cot. "Lie down now." She put a hand to Elunara's head and tisk'd. "That's quite the reaction. Let me look at you."

Elunara stopped listening and tried to focus on something, anything. She was vaguely aware of the door opening. Words were said, but they didn't intrude on her consciousness. Grogek face filled her vision and she tried to focus on him, but found herself staring a fang instead.

"Hmm." Ina pushed at a cut on Elunara's shoulder. 

Elunara hissed and writhed. 

"Look here." Ina pointed. "She's got some kind of poison in this."

"That cut is from our spar." He sniffed at it. "I recognize this. It's from the Laughing Skulls. But how would they..." He frowned and laid a hand on Elunara's hair. "Why would they poison my axe?"

"Not the skulls." Elunara moaned. 

Grogek stooped down. "I will write you a list of what we need." He looked at Ina. "Your fastest runner, no... your fastest fleet of runners. It will be dangerous and I dare not risk her."

"I'll see to it." Ina nodded.

He began to murmur to her in orcish. It was the last thing she remembered. 

When she next awoke, the General came in. "How is she doing?"

"Hiiiii!" She called as she reached out to pat his crotch. "It's nice to see you again!" She called brightly.

General Renwa frowned and pushed her hand away. 

Grogek tucked her wrist back into the bed. "Don't be angry with her, she is hallucinating."

Renwa stooped down and frowned. He laid a gentle hand on her head. "She is on fire."

"The Laughing Skulls are a strange lot. Their poisons are designed to incapacitate the largest of prey, and force enemies to spill secrets. I hope we can get all of the reagents in time."

For the longest time, Renwa knelt beside her cot, his hand in her head, his thumb brushing her temple. "I will ask this only once. Did you know?"

"And risk her?" Grogek growled. 

General Renwa stood up and nodded. He turned and left.

Later, Elunara groaned and rolled her face into her pillow. She tried to push herself up, but rolled to the side instead. Grogek's hand came to her face. She blinked up at him. Off to the side, Renwa leaned against the wall. 

"Not the Skulls." She whimpered. 

"That much we gathered." Renwa frowned as he walked to her. 

"If Grogek cut himself, then he is gone." She breathed. "If Grogek cut me, then I am gone." She shook her head and wiped the drool off her face. "If Grogek cut a trainee, then Grogek pays." She rolled on her back. "My books." She writhed and panted. "Look at the training... pictures." 

Grogek lifted her into a sitting position and poured something in her mouth. After she swallowed, she blacked out. 

Elunara opened an eye and stared. Sitting in a chair next to the bed was a familiar face.

"Hello Johnathan." She mumbled.

"How are you feeling?"

"Like a clefthoof tap-danced on my head." She rolled up over on to her back.

Renwa rubbed his hand on her arm. "It's been a rough few days, but after the fever broke, Grogek said you'd be alright."

"Where is the big brown lug?" She laid her arm on her forehead. 

"We've been working together to determine who did this. He's keeping up the ruse of training, while we search the cabins of some of the faces you gave us." 

"Gave?"

"Your books are quite impressive. Looking at the training pictures you've been drawing, we've been focusing on those who look the most disgruntled by having an orc trainer."

"Hmmm." She sighed. "My head."

"I'll summon Ina." Renwa stuck his head out of the door and then sat back down.

"Still not sure why you're here."

"Can't I visit an old friend?"

She just looked at him.

He laughed. "It seems Grogek and I have come to an understanding." He sobered. "He really loves you. You know that right?" 

"Johnathan..."

He sighed. "I didn't mean it like that. I'm actually a little bit jealous." With a shake of his head, he ran his fingers through his hair. "I thought I had that with Midge. I thought she understood me. But when I didn't give her what she wanted..." He frowned.

"I could love him." She murmured. 

Renwa's head snapped up. 

"I wasn't just being weird when I said he found my heart. He unlocked this part of me I didn't even know existed. It wasn't that I had hidden it away, or denied it. I just never felt it. Like something was disconnected in my heart. And the strangest part of it all is that it doesn't change who or what I am."

"It always bothered me that you used the term "what". Like you were an object, not a person."

Sitting up, she shook her head. "Not an object, but a name. Like a perverse title. I am "the whore". And I actually like that about me. That I can use my body to its best potential. That I play with men as a cat would a mouse. I always knew that hurting them was bad, and so I tried to not. But everyone made me into this horrible creature." She laughed. "I always assumed that no man would understand me. At the best I was a trophy to be had, at worst a demon to be tamed. Either I was what they expected of me, or I was nothing at all." She picked at her blanket. 

"I knew what you were."

She looked at him. 

"A wild creature that enjoyed my company, but would never be just mine. You weren't there to tame." He scratched his head. "Part of me wanted to tame you. To have you in just my bed for the rest of time. But I knew you'd slit my throat before I asked the question. When I found Midge... she was so calm and tame in public, but wild at night. But she was also so damned clingy. I thought... I thought I replaced you. For a time anyway."

"Aren't we a mess?" She laughed.

"Grogek has the right of it." Renwa sighed.

Elunara blinked at him. 

"You are a unique creature." Renwa smiled sadly. "We were all wrong. Every man who's ever experienced the full of you." He shook his head. "You're an amazing woman with a hell of a talent and a spectacular hobby. Instead of trying to keep either to ourselves, you should be allowed to enjoy them."

Renwa laughed and stared at the ceiling. "You go against convention. That's what everyone hates. You don't follow the so called rules we impose on ourselves. That is my one true jealousy. I don't even like being a General." He grinned at her.

With a sigh she stared at the door. "Not that anyone wants to help me with my "hobby"." 

Renwa snorted. "Well, not until Jerry started running his mouth, that is."

"Is that so?" She considered.

"In fact, I had to turn away a couple of volunteers while you were out of it."

Her fingers twitched. A knock on the door had Renwa up and over. He brought back a drink. While she chugged it, she examined her face.

"Grogek says it'll still be a few days after you wake up before you'll be walking straight. I'd take the time to rest."

"Me? Sit still?"

"I know; such a travesty."

He took the cup from her and laid a hand on her arm. "I don't think I have to tell you to be kind to them, correct?"

"How long have you known me?"

He smiled. "Long enough." He stood up. "I've sent for Ina. Once she's here I have to go."

"K."

He paused at the door before looking back. "I might actually take you up on that offer."

She grinned as Ina walked in and shut the door. 

"I see you're feeling better, if you have the wherewithal to flirt with the General."

"Oh, Ina."

"Now you just sit back and let me take a look at you." She tisk'd. "I'm a priest, I don't deal with poisons. I have to take Grogek's word on the whole mess. It's ridiculous how much that orc loves you." she muttered. 

Elunara laughed. "Ina, in my own way, I actually love him too."

The short woman seemed to gain two feet of height as she stretched out. Her eyes wide, her mouth open, a strange sort of strangled sound came out. Abruptly, Ina threw herself on Elunara. "OH! I'm so happy! With all those rumors going round, I just thought that..."

Elunara disentangled herself from the quite heavy dwarf. "Ina, I am still who I am."

Ina slid to the floor. "You can't mean..."

"I am who I am."

"But I always thought that..." She trailed off and frowned. "I always felt that you had been hurt in some way. That you did those things with yourself because you... well, you were..."

She shook her head. "I never was. I always did the hurting because I didn't understand what hurt meant."

"But how could you still do those things if you... if you truly love him."

"Because he loves those things about me."

Ina just blinked. 

"Weird, I know."

"I will give that thought some time later." Ina said simply. "For now, I must attend to my patient."

Ina spent some time checking out Elunara, and making her drink, and poking at the cut on her shoulder. Ina flittered around like deranged bird. 

"I respect what you're trying to do."

Elunara blinked at the woman. "What?"

"With the book, and the pictures." She sighed. "I've lost track of the dead. I can't identify them all. I've been at this too long. I am liking the idea of your drawings. It will help aid in healing as well. I have to admit I ignored the cut on your shoulder at first, because you come in with so many."

"It's a selfish idea."

"Oh, I now that. But your heart is in the right place with it."

The door was thrown open and Grogek barreled in. Elunara was squished before she could open her mouth. 

"Oh, my love, you're alright." He released her for only a moment before squishing her again. "I was so worried. I knew that even when the fever broke that... Laughing Skull poison is so difficult." 

"Can you let go?" She mumbled into his shoulder. 

He released her again. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry." He sat on the edge of the bed, her hands in his. "How are you doing?"

"Tired and dizzy."

"That's fine." He brushed her hair back.

Neither really heard Ina's "I'll leave you two alone."

"I was so afraid." He whispered. 

She laughed. "I don't know how to take that." 

"Renwa is looking for the bastard. He'll find them soon."

She laid back. "You sound confident in him."

"We've come to an understanding."

"That's what he said." She eyed Grogek.

"Did you KNOW the man is in love with you?"

She blinked a couple of times. "Was that what he was trying to say?" She rubbed her forehead. 

He laughed. "I get the feeling you're used to that outcome."

"What's kind of strange; is that I think he's my friend."

"Oh, really?"

"I never saw it before, because I wasn't looking. He was my commander, I was the mission specialist. He was a guy who didn't mind who I was."

"You said who, not what." Grogek murmured. 

She held her head. "Everything is changing too fast." 

The door burst open and a soldier practically fell through the door. "Sorry for the intrusion, but we got him."

Grogek growled as he jumped up. Elunara swung her legs out of bed. Grogek pushed her back down. "No, stay. You need days yet."

"I want to see the bastard."

Grogek nodded and helped her up. He gave her the dignity of his shoulder, rather than to grab her up. Once outside, they followed the messenger to the soldier's barracks. Grogek wanted his axe so they stopped there first. General Renwa and Captain Jordan were leading a man out in chains. They marched the man towards Grogek and Elunara. Grogek dropped the head of his axe down and put his palms on the hilt. Elunara kept one hand on his arm, but held herself straight. General Renwa stopped in front of the pair.

"Soldier, would you care to explain why you almost got my best agent killed?

Elunara did not know his name, but she recognized him from training. 

"I wasn't after the whore. It's the orc we need to be rid of."

Grogek grabbed the prisoner by the throat.

"General, do we really have to go through the same "justice" from Stormwind out in this backwater town in the middle of the wrong era?" Elunara asked mildly.

The General considered. "I'm trying to figure out a good explanation as to why." 

Grogek tightened his grip and the prisoner began to struggle.

"However..." The General began as he laid a hand on Grogek's arm. "If we do not maintain some sense of justice" Grogek relaxed his grip and let the man gasp. "Then we are no better than the land around us. We will give him a proper trial." He looked up at Grogek. "At which point, it will be fitting for you to be executioner."

Grogek nodded and released the man. Without a word, he hefted his axe on his shoulder, and escorted Elunara back to bed. Where he tucked her in and climbed up beside her, wrapping his arms around her.



For the Whored Ch. 017



"If you don't stop treating me like I'm fragile, I will break every goddamned bone in your body." Elunara muttered.

"I take it you are feeling better?" Grogek grinned at Elunara as he continued shaving. 

"Your dick." She reached out. "I want it now."

"Definitely feeling better." He wiped his face off. 

He leaned down to kiss her and she grabbed his pants and yanked them down. She tugged at his dick until he was in a place she wanted. She licked the length of him. 

"Oh, sweetheart." He breathed as he grabbed on to the head of the bed.

She licked up and down before sliding her lips down his dick. She began to suck on him as her hand moved to his balls. Up and down her lips went, and she shifted back and began to lick and suck. Moving her head closer, she dropped her tongue down and licked the base of his shaft before gently sucking on his balls.

He moved his free hand and slipped a finger deep into her. As she sucked his dick, he fingered her pussy. When at last she was pouring wet, and he was so close to climax, he pushed her off of his dick and climbed on top of her. He shoved his erupting dick deep inside her and winced as her body clamped down on him.

"Aw. I wanted to taste you." She pouted. 

"You'll have your chance." He murmured. 

He lay on top of her for a moment, catching his breath. When he felt his strength return, he sat up on his knees and pulled her with him. He drove her up and down on his dick as she arched her back and put her hands on his thighs. He leaned down and bit at her breasts, and when he felt her shudder, shifted her around so that she was on her knees. He pressed his thumb into her ass while he fucked her slick, wet folds. Grinning to himself, he pushed her over again. A short crawl later and he was straddling her face. She grinned at him as she licked and sucked, her fingers brushing on the insides of his thighs. He gripped the headboard and his fingers dug grooves into it. When he was finally ready she slipped her mouth over him and drank him down. 

He shifted over and fell backwards. The landing made her hop in the air. 

"I take it I wasn't the only one sexually frustrated." She giggled.

"You were out for most of it, so you only think you went only about 4 days without relief, I've been almost two weeks."

She calculated in her head. "Ouch."

He rubbed her leg. "My elation at your survival only made it worse. I would have taken you the moment you woke up."

"Hmm." 

With some shifting and a bit of crawling, he made it out of bed. Washing himself down, he began to prepare for his day. She stretched and sighed. 

"Well, I am still a shade woozy. Might stay in bed a bit longer."

"Why do you think I worked you so thoroughly?"

The look on her face was priceless. He wished he had her drawing skill. 

There was a knock on the door. Grogek pulled on his pants and opened the door. General Renwa was there. 

"How is she?"

"Feisty." Grogek grinned.

"I can hear you!" 

"So she is." Renwa grinned back. 

Grogek stepped back to Renwa could enter, and he went back to his routine. 

Renwa frowned at Elunara. "You seem to be sweating, is the fever back?"

"Well, one of them at least." She rolled her eyes. She found it interesting that Renwa had visibly relaxed. 

He eyed her for a moment, and then shared a look with Grogek. "Is she ok for that?"

"Seemed to be in working order." Grogek flashed another grin.

Renwa nodded. "I will begin sending you recruits tomorrow."

"I'd profess my undying love, had I the capacity." Elunara sighed. "I am ever so bored."

"Well, we don't really get your kind of mission out here. What we did was tricky enough."

Elunara shrugged and got out of bed. "I'd say it paid off well enough." She patted Grogek on the back.

"That it did." Renwa started to reach out, but then nodded. "Which brings me to the other reason I'm here. We're holding the trial today."

Elunara looked up at Grogek. "So much for staying in bed."

He snorted. "As if you were going to."

They stood in assembly, the prisoner chained to the post. His name was Dak, and he already had a major chip on his shoulder.

General Renwa had been talking, but Elunara just stared at the man. 

"I don't know why we're bothering with this farce. Everyone knows you're just going to hand me over to the orc, regardless of what anyone else thinks." Dak interrupted. 

"We may be far from home, but that does not mean that we will not uphold the rules of justice." Renwa frowned at the man. 

"It's not like anyone would have missed the whore anyway." Dak sneered as he glared at Elunara.

With a sigh Elunara put her hand to her forehead. "This again?" She heard Grogek growl, but ignored him."You know what?" She asked. She turned to the crowd. "You really want to know what? Stop pretending "whore" is going to upset me."

"Elunara..." Renwa cautioned. 

"No, seriously. It's not like you'll deploy me on any more missions." She put her hands on her hips. "Grogek does not need me as a leash any more. Even you know that. I could be sent out, but no. NO one feels comfortable enough to risk Grogek getting just a little bit jealous that I might fluff someone else's dick."

Grogek snorted, but kept his face neutral.

She turned back to Dak. "My codename? Is "The Whore". It is." She rolled her eyes. "I even picked it out! So call me by my codename, go right on ahead. That's just fiiine by me." She flipped her hair back. "As to why we care to carry out what you call a farce, is so that by time we're through with you, they'll have to take a goddamned number as to who gets to punch you in the nuts first." 

Renwa slapped his hand to his face. "Damn it, she got started." He muttered.

She tugged her papers out of Captain Jordan's hand. "Exhibit A! From day one that we put Grogek in charge of the trainees, you were one of the people most pissed off. Don't believe my handiwork? That's fine. I've worked for thirty years refining my ability to capture miniscule detail in my art work. I didn't notice you, didn't care. I drew everyone, and quite frankly you weren't alone in your distaste for the situation, but that much doesn't matter." She flipped through the papers and showed them to the crowd. "For the past few months I have been faithfully recording every moment of every day, because I'm bored out of my mind. No one asked me to draw these, but it's what I do. It's my second favorite activity, and we all know what activity number one is!" She called cheerfully.

"As each day passed, Grogek has earned the respect of all of his pupils. Beating the living tar out of them and turning them into better recruits, more capable of surviving this harsh world. There's a holdout here and there, but you sir are so obvious it's sad." She tossed the papers back to Jordan. "Still I didn't notice you. I didn't care to. It's not MY job to make you like the Orc."

"Exhibit B!" She gestured to Grogek's axe, which lay against the pedestal. "Grogek hasn't seen the point of keeping his axe in our room for a couple of months now. None of you twits can actually pick the goddamned thing up! He sharpens it on a schedule because he's a well disciplined leader. He has trained the best the Iron Horde has to offer and his very removal from their grasp was quite the strategic mark on my point." She grinned. "Anyhow, every single one of you twits knew where the blade was and it was free for tampering, sadly. But who would have thought someone would tamper with it? What could they do? Rust it? Maybe? Wasn't even on the mind!"

"Exhibit C!" She plucked a small hallowed out stinger off the table "The actual poison that really fucked up my week, was found in your barracks, hidden under your mattress!" She carefully sat it back down. "But wait! It could have been put there by ANYONE!" She turned to the crowd. "Except, here's the thing; you're the only person in the entire town who has spent any time in Gorgrond. Even more interesting, your mother was a rogue alchemist. I should know. I met her." She frowned and shook her head. "I have actually run a few missions with her. You see, when I figured out who you were, I sent her a little note."

Renwa straightened up. "You did what?"

"Exhibit D." She said almost quiet. She tugged the letter out of her shirt and opened it up. "Dear Elunara, it's so good to hear from you. We haven't worked together since... well that thing with the Deathwing cultists was it? I'm glad you're doing well. I've been worried since I hadn't heard from you in so long. As for your question, yes I did hear from Dak recently. He was asking for advice on how to handle an unknown poison. I gave him clear instructions. In fact I'm glad he's taking on the family legacy. Hopefully he won't be as careless as his father. Good man, little clumsy. I hope you remain well. My love, Jine."

Elunara turned back to Dak. "Which shocks you more? The fact that she gave you up? Or the fact that she sends me pleasant greetings?" She handed the note to Captain Jordan. Turning back to Dak, who was now speechless, she continued. "Here's the thing, Dak... you could have killed anyone. It could have even been yourself. However..." She picked up another sheet of paper off the desk. 

"Exhibit E." She held up the paper. "Grogek here is, again, a well disciplined taskmaster. He keeps schedules, and at Renwa's request, he began to write down those schedules. You weren't up for training for the week; you were on patrol duty for the next 4 days. You wouldn't even be in his line of sight. You knew that someone would see the biting end of that axe, and you cared not who. Just so long as you weren't there. The perfect crime with the perfect victim." 

"Had Grogek nicked himself on a freshly sharpened blade, as is his habit to test the sharpness, then he would have died." She laid her hand softly on his arm. "If he cut a trainee, as he has done in previous training exercises..." She looked at the group of nearby trainees. "They would have died." She moved back the center of the area. "But, even better, if I had challenged Grogek to a spar, like I'm known to do when I'm bored senseless... then I would have died. In fact, I almost did." She held her arms wide. "What you didn't count on you useless twit, is that Grogek knew the antidote." She twirled on the crowd. "Oh, sure, if he had been cut, then maybe he would have been way too out of it to save himself. But I would have figured you out, and no one would have any idea what happened to the remaining pieces of your body." She growled low in his face.

She turned back to the crowd, ever cheery. "So now, we have evidence that points in your direction, AAAAND the LOVELY fact that when we caught you, we have no less than 12 witnesses nearby who heard you yell about it. But, hey let's not act lawful, shall we?" She fluttered her eyelashes. 

"To recap, you tried to cause Grogek to kill someone. Let's let that thought hang out there shall we? Himself? Me? Or some random training accident? Oh, but why would you DO such a thing?" She looked dramatic. "Simple." She straightened out. "It didn't matter who died, so long as it ended with Grogek being removed from town." 

"Good job, Sugar lips. That worked out so well for you." With a twirl and a bow, Elunara flopped down in her seat." 

"I heard that." Grogek murmured.

"Heard what?" She fluttered her lashes at him and smiled.

General Renwa cleared his throat. "Now that all evidence has been presented, are there any counter-claims?"

No one said anything. Most just sat there gawking.

"I was on training that day." One person whispered in horror.

"Oh, I doubt he would have tried to save anyone other than you." Dak scoffed at Elunara, but looked uncertain.

"That's your argument?" Elunara stared.

"His actions in saving his whore does not mean substance of character!"

She slapped a hand to her face.

Grogek stepped forward. She saw Dak wince and kept her grin to herself. 

"I admit that I would not have worked as hard to save another as I would work to save the life of my mate." He glared down at Dak. "However, I would save ANYONE in this town. In fact, I have given the recipe for antidote to your healer, and I will help her procure the necessary ingredients." He looked around. "You have not given me a happy welcome, and I did not ask for one. You have given me a place, even though I did not ask for one. I have earned the respect I command, just as I had in the Iron Horde." He frowned at Dak. "You are pitiful. An angry whelp, lashing out. It would have been MY way to rip your head off of your body and toss you in the shit pile. Your General asks me to forgo my way, and I have. He asks for justice and I let him seek it. Know this, whelp..." He leaned forward. "You hurt anyone again, be it what is mine or anyone else in this town, and I will deal with you MY way."

Grogek spat on the ground and walked back to Elunara. She reached out and for a brief moment they touched fingers. Once again he returned to his original stance. 

"At this rate, I'll never get any visitors." She mumbled. 

His face twitched, but he maintained composure. 

Renwa coughed and stood up. "If there are no other comments?"

"I almost died!" 

Everyone looked over at the soldier who stood up.

"You did too!" He pointed to another soldier. "We were on that day! It was our turn up there!" 

"Oh, shit." The second guy looked a little pale. 

"She took the hit for us!" The first soldier pointed at Elunara. 

All at once, they began to panic. Elunara blinked in disbelief. She turned to Grogek who smacked his face with his hand. 

"Straighten up!" He commanded. Just as suddenly, they all froze before snapping into place. "Sit!" He bellowed. They all sat at once. "If you fear death that much, I need to beat more training into the lot of you!"

"Poison Dak! See how he likes it!" Someone called.

"Everyone settle down!" General Renwa called. 

"I think I'm actually impressed." Elunara muttered.

"Well, I see you made your point, Elunara." He gave her a grim nod.

She saluted.

"Private Dak, the evidence against you is damning. Do you have any final words before I make my judgment?"

"I don't know why you get to pass judgment. We all know you've been fucking the whore."

Elunara rolled her eyes, and Grogek snorted. Renwa just sighed. 

"I find you guilty of attempted murder. Of a slew of other charges that have been brought to our attention. For now, you will be remanded to the brig until we can further determine your fate."



For the Whored Ch. 018



Back in the General's office, Renwa, Captain Jordan, Elunara and Grogek debated.

"I know what Grogek would like to do to the little snot, but I still say that it would be crueler to ship him to his mother." 

"I'm not satisfied until I see his head on a pike!" Grogek growled. 

"Jine is fiercely loyal to the Alliance. She would be horrified to see what he did."

"He should be imprisoned." Jordan cut in.

"Where?" Asked Renwa. "Here? Support a mouth to feed that does not contribute? We can't afford it." He shook his head. "If Elunara had died, I would have no qualms about his execution. I'd over see it myself." He nodded to Grogek. "I also agree that Jine is a terror to behold, but in this time of war and crisis, I would not put more stress on what she may already be facing." 

"A public execution is so passé." Elunara added mildly. "What do you want to do with the swine, sweetness?"

"It is exactly that attitude and pet name calling that makes people believe those rumors." Jordan huffed.

Elunara looked at Grogek. "Did he seriously just say that to me?"

"Baffling." Grogek replied. 

"Sweetheart," Elunara cooed. "If I had half a mind to it, I'd have all three of you fucking me right now. But we have bigger fish to fry." 

Jordan turned several fascinating shades.

General Renwa coughed. "She is correct." Elunara raised an eyebrow. "On both counts." At her self-satisfied smirk, he continued. "Dak cannot stay here. He is a loose cannon, and not one I feel like dealing with. I am tasked with deciding his fate, and I will take everyone's thoughts into consideration." He stared at Elunara. "You are the one who almost died. You may not have been his direct target, but you took the hit. Ultimately, your thoughts weigh heaviest."

Elunara sighed and looked out of the window. "It is only because of Jine that I even consider letting him live. She is a good friend to me and I owe her my life. I have never repaid that debt. But the end game is that her son is a murder, or at least attempted it." She turned back to Renwa. "So I ask you, to please give me a chance to get a message to my friend." 

Renwa laced his fingers together and pressed his face against them. "Tell me something, Lu..." 

Elunara froze and stared.

"You told me once that you didn't have friends. Had no need for them. I understand Grogek, and I think I understand myself." He placed his hands on the desk. "But where did Jine come from?"

She knew her mouth was open, but no sound came out. The three men stared at her. She snapped her mouth shut and frowned. "You haven't called me Lu since..." She trailed off as her gaze met his. 

"I don't know." She whispered. "I really don't know." Louder this time. "Grogek..." She held out her hand toward him. "He unlocked something in me. I don't know what it is, but it's as if I can see. I can see what was right there all along. Jine was always so sweet to me, so caring, that I always felt a little guilty that I couldn't exchange the emotion. There was no emotion to work with. Not bad, not good. The goal is and always will be, to fulfill my selfish interests. I am a selfish person." 

She stared at her hands. With a sigh she addressed the room. "I still don't get it. I don't. Not the least little bit. She is my friend because I understand how a friend acts. You," She looked at Renwa. "Are a friend because you know who I am and accept what I became. Grogek..." She looked at him. "Is my best friend."

The phrase sung in the air. "He is my best friend because he understands me. He says it a lot, he sees me, he knows me. It's almost painful how deep and important that actually is. I never thought that being around someone for so long would be more important than obnoxious." She turned back to Renwa. "I'm sorry that I felt that way." She almost whispered. "I didn't want to spend that much time around you because it made me uncomfortable. I didn't understand it then, but I do now. I didn't like how easily you accepted me. Until you, no one even tried." She laughed. "Ok, they tried, but they wanted to keep me like a precious bird. The men that fancied themselves in love with me were worthless. Every last one. You were the first person who didn't treat me like that. It was weird. So, while I enjoyed you, I kept you at arm's length, and when you gave up on me-"

"I didn't..."

"When I thought you had given up on me, it was a relief. I didn't have to analyze what was wrong with you." She laughed again. "When we met again, as commander and subordinate, I was so ungodly relieved that you'd let it go." 

She tugged her fingers through her hair. "Then, in that stupid fortress, there was this obnoxious Orc that didn't trust me as far as he could throw me." Elunara grinned at Grogek. "Oh man, I had to have a piece of that!" She gave a full laugh. "A mission's a mission, but I've learned from day one, that if I was going to go on missions, I was going to handle them my way. All missions are fun. They aren't jobs; they're an excuse to do what I do best. Fuck men and draw about it." 

"Oh, I've had a few go wrong, but I always make it work to my advantage. I mentally prepare myself each time I assess the situation. No matter how filthy and disgusting my target is, I will pretend they're the sexiest thing I've ever been with. I will make them fuckable." She leaned back against the window. "But giving myself up to the Iron Horde? Sticking me in a fortress filled with Orcs? Hot damn I hit the jackpot!" She winked at Grogek. "All those strong bodies, rippling muscles, lovely sculpted backs?" She shook her head. "Hell, I'm wet just thinking of it."

It amused her to see Renwa and Grogek had the same expression before looking at each other. Captain Jordan looked indignant. 

She sighed. "The end result is the same. Get in, make myself a prize, and extract information. I did just that and I did it well. I did it SO well, that when I reached the height of the mission, Grommash asked me what I wanted, and I told him Grogek. Who, might I mention, was beyond pissed about the situation." She waved a hand. "The goal, seduce him, get him to spill his guts. I couldn't get Grommash to go for me. Goddammit I tried, but he wasn't looking at me."

She stopped and considered. "That's when things get a little weird, because quite frankly I only remember some of it." She strolled over and laid her hands on Grogek's shoulders. "He saw me." She almost whispered it. Stepping back she sighed. "Once he had a taste of me, he saw me for who I was."

"You knew I had been lying..." She half laughed

"I couldn't figure out how to make you understand..."

She looked at Renwa. "He told me several times. Over and over. He knew. More than knew, he understood. Once the understanding began, the encouragement came next."

She looked back at Grogek. "How did you know?"

"The goblin. You saved him, and when he was given to you as a slave, you were kind to him. I used to watch you sit there, practically chained to the post, and laugh. Your smile was so pure and genuine." He murmured a phrase in orcish. 

"You're getting sentimental again."

He took her hand and kissed it. 

"Ricky was... an oddity." She sighed. "I didn't mean to save him. I wasn't even sure why I stayed Grommash's hand. Then he was just kind of funny. I didn't trust him at first, but he looked up to me like a puppy. I used him what I could, but I was so busy trying to keep him out of harm's way I didn't have him try for the better stuff." 

"He was your friend." Grogek nodded.

"He was." She nodded. "And then suddenly, you were there. You understood me. You know what I am, who I am." She amended. "You knew my hobby, and just like me, you altered your point of view just to enjoy it as part of me."

"Altered?" Renwa frowned. 

"An Orc is a fiercely loyal lover. His mate is his life and she shall have none other than him. And vice versa." She nodded at Grogek, whose eyebrows were raised. "Instead of forcing me to give up my happiness, he altered his mindset in order to, not only accept this part of me, but find it enjoyable. He sees me, he knows me, he respects me, and he wants to make me happy. I can say anything to him and he may say it to me. We are not just compatible, we are a unit." She looked at him again, and the emotions raged across his face.

"I have spent my entire life on the outside. I was always different, I was always odd. I have been kicked out of my homeland. Yet, somehow I found a place here." She gave a soft laugh. "I finally understand what I have been dealing with all this time. I suddenly understand other people. It's so confusing. But I like it. I actually like it." She snorted. "Now If I could only find some damned volunteers..."

"Should I tie them up and bring them to you?" Grogek grinned. 

"I'm keeping that option on the table." She pouted.

"I'm sorry Elunara, that question was cruel of me." Renwa sighed.

She shrugged. "It's just something I've been working through." She looked out the window. "And dammit, I think Ina is my friend too."

"Ina?" Renwa cackled. 

"She practically heard wedding bells when I told her I might be in love with Grogek." Elunara snorted.

Abruptly she was scooped into Grogek's arms and squished.

"Right." She squeezed out. "Forgot to tell him." 

Grogek buried Elunara in kisses. 

"Can we PLEASE get back to the matter at hand?" Jordan cried.

"Oh, hey." Elunara was released from Grogek's grip. "I forgot you existed."

Captain Jordan was several shades of red. 

Renwa cleared his throat. "Yes. Back to the matter." He nodded to Elunara. "I will let you write this letter, but I get final approval."

"Yes, sir."

"I am going to dismiss you two, so that you can go do what is so clearly what you are about to go do."

After the two of them left, Renwa shot a sideways glance at Jordan.

"You're still stuck on the visual of the first thing she said, aren't you?

"Am not!" Jordan coughed and righted himself. "She's a bit crass. Though, if there's any truth to her words, I see why you're so blinded when it comes to her."

"Blinded?" 

"Nothing. Forget I said it."

"We don't need another Dak. Speak your mind."

Jordan sighed. "When she was sick, all duties were dumped on me. When a decision involves her, you're quick to see she gets the best end of it. Even at the trial, she completely broke protocol in so many ways I lost track, but you let her proceed."

Renwa opened his mouth and then closed it again. "Your point is made."

"I can't imagine that one Night Elf could have that effect on so many men. It's a bit disgusting, what she claims she's done." Jordan frowned. "Or who she's done."

General Renwa laughed. "Give her a go, you'll see."

Jordan gawked at his superior officer. 

"You heard it yourself. This is the hobby that she enjoys. Her primary lover is not only ok with it, but encouraging it. She is who she is. Do not think of her as a woman, who had had many lovers, and don't even think of her as being experienced. She asked for volunteers. Go see what the big deal is."

"But... you love her!"

Renwa leaned back. "I do, don't I?" He considered. "Yes, I do. I want her to be happy. Happy means men to her. Grogek and I have already had a bit of a chat. And I think I might pay her a visit this week."

Elunara was pretty exhausted. She hadn't been on her feet that much today, but she was still recovering from poison, then being fucked like a maniac, had testified in her poisoning, and let her soul out to her commanding officer, and then what she would consider "wild love making". All things considered, it was pretty nice, as she lay tucked under Grogek's arm. 

"You know, I only said I thought I MIGHT be in love with you."

"And when you finally tell me you love me, we shall break the bed."

The letter was written in short order, and Renwa saw the fastest runner would take it on to the mages who would send it back. They did not have to wait long for a response, and the four of them were present for the reading. 

"A grim position indeed." Renwa said quietly. 

"Jine always said; everything for the good of the Alliance."

"But to sentence her own son to death." Captain Jordan was appalled. 

"A noble woman." Grogek nodded. 

The four headed down to the jail cell where Dak sat. He sneered at the group. 

"Come to give me my sentence?"

Elunara frowned. "I have come to tell you that I sent word to your mother. I will now read you her response." 

"What does dear old mom have to say?" Dak stood up and walked to the bars. 

"I will have you know, that when I wrote her, I told her of your crimes. I also told her that we had not reached a sentence yet, that we wished for her to know the situation and that through my previous dealings with her; she had earned the right to give her opinion." 

Dak rolled his eyes. "Get on with it."

"Dear Elunara, I regret that we have reconnected under such grim circumstances."

"Move it on." Dak waved his hand. 

She did not change face, but continued reading. "It is heartbreaking to hear my own son commit treason against the Alliance. I understand your position and concern in this situation, and all I ask is that you return his body to me after the execution. I will attempt to bury him with as much dignity and respect as he was before. The man he has become is unrecognizable to me, and I wish to remember him as I last knew. All I ask; is for you to make it as quick and merciful as allowed to you in your present location. And should you have the chance to speak with my son before hand, please let him know my final words. "For the good of the Alliance should never come at the willful expense of Alliance lives."

Elunara lowered the paper.

Dak's eyes were wide as saucers as he stared at Elunara.

She held out the paper. "If you wish to read..."

"That crazy bitch!" He started rattling the bars. "That goddamned zealot!" 

"You execution will be today." General Renwa interrupted. "You will be allowed a final meal of your choosing, within availability. You may-"

"Oh, fuck it all!" Dak threw his hands up. "Just execute me now and get it over with!" 

Renwa's frown deepened. "If this is your final wish."

Renwa turned and walked out, followed by Jordan and Grogek. Elunara stood there for a long moment, watching Dak pace. 

"What do you want, whore?" He sneered.

"I would have spared you." With that, she turned and left.

They set up on the edge of town. It was bad enough that it would be a public execution, but none wanted blood in the center of their town. Grogek stood, with his axe, blade down, his hands resting on the hilt. He stood by a non-descript block of wood. Renwa stood on the other side. 

Dak was being led through the crowd by a pair of guards. Elunara stood in the crowd, watching the procession. 

"I can't BELIEVE THIS!" Dak cried. "The ORC is my executioner? That's just BULLSHIT!" 

The guards shoved him forward to the block and forced him to kneel. 

"So much for a non-biased execution! This is just a slaughter for HIS amusement!"

Elunara marched up to the front. "Who among you believe that HE should be spared?" She gestured to Dak. At the silence in the crowd, she continued. "Who among you would stand as executioner in place of Grogek?" Still silence. She turned to Dak. "That's why."

"Grogek's the right one to do it." 

Everyone turned and looked at a now embarrassed Jerry. "I mean, Grogek is the strongest, and will make the cleanest cut. Some of us aren't even battle tested, and he's... well, him." Jerry shuffled his feet. "And, Elunara is his wi— I mean, she's Grogek's, no matter what her hobby is."

"So you're saying you're all a bunch of pussies? THAT'S your reason?" Dak struggled against the guards who were beginning to have issues. "This is complete BULLSHI-"

Everyone froze as Grogek's axe met ground. 

"I was getting sick of his mouth." Grogek growled. 

He had done it so quick that blood hadn't even spattered. The beleaguered guards straightened up in shock. 

"Show's over folks." The General announced.

The crowd began to disperse. Elunara walked over to Jerry and laid a hand on his shoulder. She kissed his cheek. "You did good."

He blushed. "T-thanks."

Grogek smacked Jerry on the back, causing Jerry to step forward. "You're a good man." 

Grogek walked forward a bit before turning. "Work on your stance." Grogek wrapped his arm around Elunara, his axe propped on the other shoulder. 

Glancing up at the axe she considered. "Even I'm impressed how little blood is on your axe."

"He was a bloodless coward anyway."

Elunara froze for a moment before erupting into laughter. 

"Could you at least maintain a little decorum?" General Renwa frowned. 

She looked over and grinned. "Sorry."

"No you're not."

"Not about laughing, no. I hate seeing you frown." She smiled softly. 

He looked ahead. "I will have the body prepared for transport to Jine."

"Thank you."



For the Whored Ch. 019



A few days later, Elunara was surprised by a knock on the door. She opened the door, and standing there was one of the soldiers. 

"Can I come in?"

"Sure, sugar." She smiled and moved back. 

He stood there looking fidgety. 

"Well?" She closed the door.

"This is going to sound strange..."

"Honey, not much surprises me these days."

"I want to be in one of your drawings."

"Alright." She gathered her pencils and papers. 

"But I don't want to do that other thing." He bit his lip. "Don't tell anyone."

"Hmm." She sat her things down and pushed him into the proper light. She started adjusting him to her liking.

"I really don't want the other thing." 

"That's fine." She stepped back and considered. "A little taller than usual." She adjusted him again. "Do you want the standard clothed, or the nude for the book?"

"I'll... I'll do nude for the book. But I don't want-" 

"The other thing." She nodded. "That's fine." Sitting down, she picked up her board and began to sketch.

"If anybody asks, I did the other thing."

"That's fine." She continued to sketch as she looked up and down. "If you don't relax, I'm not going to get a good drawing of your face. Or the rest of you for that matter." The pencil raced across the page. "I will never force someone to do something they don't want. If you don't want sex, or sexual favors, that's fine. I can separate one job from another. I am a professional after all."

"I'm gay." 

Elunara lifted an eyebrow. "Your point?"

"You can't tell anyone."

"Sugar, I'm all for people being who they really are. However, if you're not comfortable with coming out, that's not my issue." 

He seemed to relax then. "But, you will go a good job? Make it look like... well."

She laughed. "Honey, the naughty ones go in my personal stuff. No one sees those. The book for the healer will be relaxed, basic poses. You will be captured as a person, not a toy. Feel better?"

"A little, yeah."

"Good. Now, relax and let me work." She leaned back. "And as for anything that is said outside this door, feel free to make it up. Or, better yet, ask me for pointers. I can lie my way out of anything. One way or another. You just have to promise me the phrase "mind-blowing" and we're set."

He laughed.

"I will warn you though; people that go down this route, have some complications later. Say you have a guy you're sweet on; he won't believe you're hitting on him. Or, someone gets jealous, thinks you and I had a thing, and they just can't get over it. I have no problem getting myself out of these things, while maintaining your dignity, but you won't."

He frowned. "I guess you're right." He shook his head. "I don't care right now; I just want to fit in with the guys..."

"I know how that works too, shug. You need any advice, you come to me, ok?"

"Ok."

"Turn." She gestured. 

She worked with him for a few hours, before shoving him out the door, flushed and messy. 

When Grogek returned that night, she was finishing up the details on the work. 

"So he actually showed up." Grogek murmured as he lifted a page. 

"You sent him?" 

"I dismiss them for the day if they volunteer." He grinned. 

"Then why don't I get more visitors?" She pouted. 

"He went through with it, I see." Grogek lifted up the nude. 

Elunara eyed him. "Spill it."

"I've begun to suspect he prefers the men."

"He does." She took the page from him.

"It happens from time to time. It will out, eventually."

"That's what I said."

"He hides it well, but it distracts him during combat."

"He got a crush?" 

"Jerry." 

Elunara froze. She put a hand to her forehead. "I feel stupid."

Grogek laughed and dragged her into his embrace. "It's ok, my love. We all make mistakes." 

"And now I have a headache." 

He kissed her forehead. "I can make it go away." He whispered. 

"Jerry and Louis. Lord, I think they're perfect for each other."

She was sorting her papers when she heard the knock. Still holding her page, she frowned as she opened the door.

"Mmm, Jerry said you liked it when we called you the Artist." 

She looked up and blinked a few times. Propping her hand on her hip she grinned. "Well, well, well. Why haven't I seen you in the lineup?"

"I've only been here a few days. You haven't really been out. I think. I mean..." He stumbled and looked around. "I haven't really seen you before. I was told how to find you by Grogek." 

"Come on in, Sugarcakes."

"It's kind of odd, you know."

Her face twitched, but she showed no change. "What is?"

"Having an orc in the town. I mean, with all of our Alliance verses Horde, and then there's this orc here. But I guess we've done that before, when it helps us out." He looked puzzled.

"What's your name?" 

"Oh, Andrew." He twiddled his fingers. "Sorry, I talk when I'm nervous. I've never done this kind of thing." 

She laughed. "Which is?"

"Ah... the whole pose nude thing." 

"Hmm." 

"Anyway, they say he's Iron Horde, and that he worked for the enemy. Is it true?"

"He was Grommash's right hand orc, until I stole him away."

"That's so cool." Andrew breathed. 

Elunara began to gather her tools. "So what brings you to me?"

"Well, I was at the healer having my broken nose fixed...when she said you were working on this big project thing. It sounded kinda cool. Then Grogek said how we get a break from training to do it."

Placing her hands on his shoulders, she positioned him in the center of the room. Once she was satisfied by his pose, she sat down. "So tell me about yourself."

"Oh. Umm..." He looked around.

"Still please."

"Sorry." He straightened back up. "Well, I've actually seen a fair bit of combat. I was stationed under Admiral Taylor in Vash'jir. Then when he went to Pandaria, I was on that boat with the prince. I've barely escaped with my life, Like, a lot. I barely managed to get out of his Garrison when everything went freaky. It sucks he didn't make it."

Elunara looked up. "Admiral Taylor's dead?"

"Yeah."

"Damn. He was a good man."

"You knew him?"

"I've had a few run ins. Turn please." Elunara continued to work with him until he stood before her in nothing but his pants. 

He fidgeted. "I think I should tell you... That the guys were really having me on before I came over."

Elunara lifted an eyebrow. "Oh?" She continued to sketch. "Turn please."

"Well, yeah. I mean..." His shoulders went up and down as he sighed. "Guys say stupid things all the time, so you can't get TOO mad at them."

"The suspense is killing me." She added dryly. "To the front." 

He turned around, flushed red. "That you do naughty stuff." He fidgeted his hands. "I mean, umm sexual kind of things." At her grin, he began to stammer. "I mean that's silly! Right? I mean you wouldn't... ahh you know, do that stuff. And if Grogek found out..."

She erupted into laughter. "Oh, Sugarbear, you are adorable." 

He half laughed. "Yeah, see..."

"They're not wrong."

He stared at her. 

"Pants off, please." He stood there, frozen in shock. 

She cocked an eyebrow. "Do you want to do it, or do I have to take them off myself?"

He began to fumble and shove at his pants. When they finally hit the floor, she was pleased to see he'd already started the party. She'd be able to draw him out, in both counts. She returned to sketching.

"But... what about Grogek?"

"What about him? Should I ask him to join?"

"NO! I mean... wait, join?"

"Grogek helped me arrange all of this."

"S-s-so, he knows?"

"How do you think I dragged him away from the Iron Horde? By asking nicely?" She put her board to the side and stood up. "You see, I draw you fully clothed, maybe in some armor." She strolled over to him. He shivered, but did not move. "Then I get you naked, and I draw that too. I really like drawing naked men." She placed a hand on his chest. "Then," She slowly moved her hand down and brushed her fingertips against this dick. "I play with you until I get the poses I want." She brushed her lips close to his ear and whispered. "And if you're a good boy, I'll make sure you enjoy yourself quite well." She gripped his rising dick. "The reason you get a day off from training, is because you'll need it."

He was flush and panting by time she walked back to her board. 

She looked back at him. "Please tell me you're not a virgin."

"N-no ma'am."

She moved her board over the floor by his feet. He shifted his feet and licked his lips. She knelt in the floor by him and started to add details to her sketch. Reaching up, she took his dick in hand and began to rub her thumb up and down it. She shifted her head back and forth, looking at both sides as she moved her hand. With her other hand she tossed a few more details on the picture. She pushed his dick up and examined his balls and thighs. 

"Hmm, small knick there." She murmured, before adding the sketch to her papers. 

She released him and stood up and began to run her hands over his neck and through his hair. Though she made a clinical assessment of his body, she had enough skill and dexterity to make him enjoy it. He was practically shaking by time she finished with her base work. Picking up her board and moving it out of harm's way, she went back to him. His eyes were a little glazy and she grinned. He felt like he was being stared at by a very hungry predator. 

Since he'd already given up his body's secrets, so went for the quickest points. She brushed her fingers down his chest and stomach and wrapped her hand around his dick. As she used her thumb to stroke him, she breathed on the edge of his ear and gently nipped. He moaned and twitched in her grasp. Sucking on his ear she moved down to his shoulder before moving her mouth down his chest. With little soft licks she made her way down. When at last she opened her hand and licked down his shaft. He reacted by grabbing her shoulders.

She licked his back and forth while her hands worked on his balls and the base of his dick. When he gave that hard shudder, she moved out of the way and let it hit the floor. He collapsed to his knees. 

Elunara went to the bucket of sawdust under the bed and tossed a handful on the wet floor. 

"I don't want to die." Andrew whimpered. 

She blinked at him. "What?" 

"Grogek's going to kill me. Isn't he?"

She laughed and reached down to pat him on the back. "He is not. Now man up and put your clothes back on."

She went back to her board and opened it up. She was adding a few more sketches as he got dressed. She did enjoy some of these moments, because even in their confusion, there was an odd sort of intimacy that no one else saw. 

"Can I see?"

"Sure." She continued to fill in detail.

"Damn, that's... amazing." 

She shrugged. "I've been at this for years."

"Can I get a copy? I... uhh mean the armor one."

"Of course. Anyone can ask for a copy of the clothed version. The basic naked version will go in the healer's book. The naughty ones..." She trailed off and grinned. "Those are mine."

He shifted uncomfortably. "And Grogek doesn't care?"

"Grogek doesn't care about what?" Grogek was standing in the doorway. 

Years of training kept her from laughing out loud. Andrew had turned sheet white and would have fainted, had his own training not kicked in.

"Andy here seems to think you care that I suck another man's dick."

"Why would I care about that?" Grogek bent down and kissed her on the mouth. 

"What are you doing here, anyway?"

"It's lunchtime. I had the cook make us up a basket. I was hoping to spend time in the south orchard."

"You softy. Let me get some fresh paper."

Grogek looked up at Andrew, if seeing him for the first time. "Shouldn't you be somewhere?"

Andrew took off like a shot. 

"You did that on purpose." 

"Did what on purpose?" He feigned innocence. 

"And you chose the south orchard on purpose as well."

"Because it's the only one big enough to hold your energy?"

"Fair point."



For the Whored Ch. 020



They walked hand in hand, through town and up and over the hill to the southern orchard. 

"Oh, I forgot the blooms fall about this time of year." She smiled. 

His hand came up to the nap of her neck as he kissed her softly. "I thought you'd enjoy it. You were sick for too long and then you've been stuck in our room. You needed to get out." 

"It's very sweet Grogek. I love it."

"Ha! You said love. I'm getting close!"

She laughed as she pushed him away. "Come on, you lug." 

They moved to the center of the orchard and sat down. Elunara unfolded her board and Grogek pulled out the food. She was content to just sit and capture the moment. They ate in companionable silence while she continued to draw. 

"Hmm. I like it when we're like this... and even those times after we've had each other like maniacs. Just laying around, being there together. It's nice."

"Oh?" Grogek stuffed a sandwich in his mouth.

"It's the casual moments that have been getting me lately." She continued to sketch his eating face. "My entire life has been about movement. Even when I'm on a mission, it's always "go, go, go". I had no need for companions. No reason to enjoy these little things. I think not having a mission to go on is starting to get to me. I've always found some way to occupy my time."

He laid a hand on hers. "I'm glad I could bring this to you."

She smiled and tapped her pencil on her board. "There's this picture I made. Back in the fortress. That first night I had you naked in my room. You were lying on my pallet in the floor, and you were spent and happy, and it was just such a strange moment." 

"I remember that." He said quietly. "I feels like another lifetime."

"Anyway, I drew you then. I'd had many men like that before. The list is endless, and I'd drawn them too, down to the minute detail." She sighed and continued to draw. "Well, anyway, I didn't really know it then, and I certainly didn't understand, but it was different." Her voice got quiet and thoughtful. "But it was beautiful. I don't know how I managed it, but I recreated the scene perfectly." With a sigh, she readjusted the board in her lap. 

"The past few days, I've been organizing my papers and books. I can't tell you why, but I just felt this compulsion to flip through it all over again. I saw that picture, and I realized..." She looked up at him. "Well, it just might be my favorite picture in my whole collection." 

He got up on his knees and pushed the board out of her hand. Leaning forward, he laid his lips, whisper soft on hers. His hand came up to the nape of her neck and he pressed in further. Their lips met in a slow, mating dance. She pressed up, her hand grabbing his shirt and tugging him closer. He stumbled and fell but caught his hands behind her. He pressed on, as one hand came up behind her back. 

Their mouths separated, but their faces remained inches apart. She licked her tender lips. 

"The start of our audience has arrived." She whispered. 

He stared down at her, searching her face. "I'm finding it difficult to care." He whispered back.

"Me either." 

"Dude, we shouldn't be up here." Steve hissed.

"They didn't catch us last time. They don't pay attention." Michael snorted. "Geez, how is that even physically possible?"

Steve and Michael watched the pair lock lips. 

"This isn't right." Steve muttered.

"Then why are you here?"Michael hissed before turning back. "You'd figure the fangs would get in the way."

"So what is your bet this time?" Grogek murmured. His hand had already slipped under her shirt and his fingers were doing fascinating things to her breasts.

"Eight."

"Eight? Why so low?"

"They fear and respect you now. There are a couple of holdouts who think I'm still just a whore, but that doesn't affect me. The end result is still the same though... How does an orc as big as you are, not tear apart a night elf as small as me? The curious can't help themselves."

He snorted. "Pathetic." 

"Aww, but it's fun."

He bit her shoulder. "Only because you enjoy it so much."

With a giggle, she bit his ear. "Sweetheart, you enjoy the fun I get out of it."

"That I do." He murmured. 

Elunara shoved him over on his back. He propped his head on his arms as she carefully stowed her board and tools away. Shoving the basket out of the way, she climbed on top of Grogek. 

"Now is where it gets fun."

She pulled off her shirt and tossed it over with their things. When he grabbed at her hips, she smacked his hand away. She stood, taking off her pants and turned around, sitting on his stomach. She undid the top of his pants and pushed them down so that his dick came free. He was already mostly hard, and her quick hands got him all the way up. He flexed and grinned as he ran her hands on her back. They slid down and cupped her ass, his thumb caressing her asshole. 

"What do you plan, little she-wolf?"

She looked back and grinned. "I don't know why I like it when you call me that."

She ran her hand up and down the length of him, her other hand went down and caressed his balls. After squeezing him and playing with him until he struggled, she shifted her hips and slid down on top of him. He groaned as his hands clamped down on her hips. She slid her legs down so that she was on her knees as she bounced up and down on him. He gripped her hips and shoved her down completely. She yelped in delight. 

He began to rock her up and down, helping her bob on his dick. Hanging on to his legs she gasped as she was thrust up and down. Just when she thought he would come for her, he shoved her upwards and pulled her hips back to his face. He slipped his tongue in her before she was entirely sure what had happened. 

"Oh, that was clever." She purred, before slipping her mouth on his dick. 

The exchange had slowed the timing of his orgasm, but that was the fun part. She licked him like a lollipop and sucked on his massive dick. He buried his face in her crotch and licked and sucked at her inner lips. She yelped when he used his fangs to tickle the inside of her thighs.

"Unfair advantage!" She giggled.

"Says the mission specialist." He muttered as he used his teeth on the inside of her thigh.

"Oh, you wanna play it that way huh?"

"Do your worst."

"If you insist!" She purred. Using her fingers and a series of pressure points, he had him practically explode on her hands. 

"H-how?" He gasped.

"Mission specialist!" She called cheerily. 

She yelped when he shoved two fingers in. 

"Playing it hard?" She laughed. 

"Oh, I intend to." 

She gripped on to his legs as he used his fangs to tickle her thighs, his fingers thrust into her and she could feel his tongue in the more sensitive areas. She gasped when the third finger went in. With one hand he held on to her leg so that she could only buck and writhe, without escape. She bit his leg and he only increased the pace. She shuddered and twitched, but he was relentless. It was only until she collapsed on his legs and whimpered that he released her. 

In a move that fascinated him, she turned over, and twisted herself so she sat on his stomach. She propped her elbows on his chest. 

"Well, that was intense."

"Are you alright?" He ran his hand down her back.

"I'm going to need a few minutes, that's for sure."

"Forgive me for being so rough." He nuzzled her hair.

She laughed and then sighed. "It's not even on the list of worst I've endured."

"I'm so sorry." He murmured.

Elunara shook her head and then sat up with a stretch. "I didn't say it was bad, Sugarbear. I'm a little winded, and slightly sore, but I quite enjoyed it." She ran her fingernails down his chest. "In fact, I'm going to tell you that I want to do that again." She laughed at his expression. "Just not right now. In fact, I'd keep that one on spare."

He laughed. 

She stood up and stretched out. 

"Now you're just showing off."

She grinned down at him. "Get up." 

"At your command." He purred as his erection began to gain size again. 

She laughed. "No, you goofball. Stand up and take me against our friend the tree, here."

He stood up and put his hands on his hips. He stared at the tree. "That bark looks a little rough; I wouldn't want you to get hurt."

"Nah, I'm a night elf. Trees are kind of my thing." She rubbed her hands over the bark and smoothed some of the rough edges.

"That is a fascinating talent." 

She braced herself and looked back. "You on it, Sweetie?"

His hand came around and he ran a finger up and down her wetness. He bit her shoulder and then licked at her neck. With a thrust he shoved himself deep in her. She gasped with pleasure. Grabbing her hip, he pulled her leg backwards and held on to her knee. Slowly he began to fuck her as he pushed himself deep inside. Little by little he picked up speed, ramming himself in her as he worked on her neck with his teeth and tongue. She moaned and gave a small shriek when his other hands come around and his fingers worked on her clit. 

"You know." He mumbled into her shoulder. "It's been awhile since I've done this..." 

He slid out of her and adjusted himself before pushing in her ass. She gasped as her nails dug into the tree bark. He buried two fingers into her front, leaving another free to rub her low lips with the thumb on her clit. He was deceptively gentle as he rocked in and out. When he felt her clamp down, he let himself go as well. 

He slipped free of her and collapsed to the ground. She held on to the tree for a little while longer as his remains slid out of her. She looked back at him and grinned. 

"Now who's showing off?" She collapsed on the ground beside him, wincing a little. 

He pulled her into his lap. "I'm sorry my love, I've been rough on you today."

"A little rough every now and then is good. In fact, I'm quite enjoying myself."

"We're only up to seven. Your count might be off today."

"Don't worry; number eight is on his way." She tapped her chin. "I need to get Gerald into my room. Teach him a little lesson about hedging his bets."

"Hm, is he the one making all the gold? I was wondering about that."

She shrugged. "He's had to study my dossier. Probably had to read reports on you as well."

"How thorough were your reports?" 

"Quite detailed actually. Never know what might be important later."

"Fascinating." 

His fingers lightly brushed her wetness, more an absent gesture than anything important. She closed her eyes and just enjoyed the feel; her back against his chest, his soft breath on her ear. His arms wrapped around her body, and those softly drifting fingers. Slowly he pressed his fingers in and she gasped. 

"Hmm, I don't think you're that done yet, are you?"

She narrowed her eyes and looked off in the distance. "You distracted me there."

"How was I distracting?" He pushed one finger in. 

She shuddered and sighed. "Grogek, you are like a warm blanket to me. I don't know why, but you bring me comfort and joy, just by holding on to me."

"I am getting closer." He whispered. 

He shifted his back against the tree, and adjusted her in the direction she knew she wanted. 

"What is going on here?" Captain Jordan demanded.

"Shh!!" Cried seven voices at once. 

"I told you we shouldn't be here!" Steve hissed. He turned to the Captain and saluted. "Sir, these miscreants..." he froze. "And I..." He admitted. "Have been spying on Grogek. They don't know we're here, but if you're loud, they'll find us out and we're all dead!" He hissed the last.

"What in the world?" He climbed the few feet up the hill and froze. 

Elunara had her arm wrapped behind her and around Grogek's neck, her face was twisted and she was naked. Following an arm he was utterly shocked to see what Grogek was doing with his hand. 

He turned to the guilty looking crew. "How long have you been watching this?" He hissed.

"Uhh a couple of hours." Admitted one.

"Try four." Muttered Gerald. 

"Four? They've been at this for four hours?" Captain Jordan stared off appalled and then turned amazed. He looked over the hill again. Soft moans could be heard. "Like this?" He asked no one.

"Actually, they're quite creative when they get going. I think they're about finished at this point." Gerald shrugged. 

"She must be exhausted."

Gerald laughed and then clamped his hand over his mouth. Nervously, he looked down the hill. "Actually, sir, she usually wears the orc out first."

Captain Jordan couldn't tear his eyes off of the pair. A distant voice of reason and duty called out to him. But it did not intrude on him. 

Elunara shifted around and ever so gently, laid her lips on Grogek's. "Maybe I do love you." She whispered. She straddled one of his legs and laid her head on his shoulder. He wrapped his arms around her and closed his eyes. 

"It is a good day." He murmured.

"Damn." Gerald sighed. "I think they just fell asleep." He shrugged and handed someone ten gold. "Shows over folks. Someone go tell the farmer not to tend the orchard today. 

"I will." Called a retreating form.

"Uhh sir?" 

Captain Jordan blinked. He felt as if he'd just been snapped out of a strange dream. He frowned down at the napping couple. He looked around, and realized everyone had bailed on the show, and only Gerald was brave enough to continue standing there. 

"As... you were." Jordan's voice was far away from his ears. He wandered back to his own room.



For the Whored Ch. 021



The next day, Elunara sat on the hill above the training yard and captured the scene. Standing on the sidelines, a soldier snickered. Grogek ignored the man at first. She was careful to capture his expression, should she need it in the future. There was a soldier standing beside him, but the second one seemed embarrassed and didn't respond to the original soldier's sniggering. 

Finally Grogek stomped over to the man.

"Something funny?"

"Not a thing." A guy smirked. 

Folding up her board, Elunara walked down the hill. Grogek saw her approached and watched with interest. When she halted at the edge of the area, he walked to her. His fingertips brushed the hair from her neck. 

"Going to start another spar today?"

"No. Tempting, but no. I wanted to let you know that he is one of the eight."

"Ah." He looked over to the first man and growled. 

"One sec." She popped open her board and made a few scribbles "Sorry, just wanted to capture his face before you obliterated it." 

Grogek snorted. She sat down on the edge of the training yard and continued to work while Grogek went to the laughing man. 

"Rodger, is it?" 

"Yeah what of it?"

"Get in the ring."

"What?" He blinked up at Grogek. 

"You think you're so funny, get your ass in the ring and PROVE it."

Rodger cough and sputtered. He looked around. "Uh, I'm not part of this training group. I'm just visiting with the traders. I'm a guard, you see."

"THE RING, GET IN IT!" Grogek bellowed. 

Rodger held up his hands. "You can't seriously mean..."

Grogek grabbed the guy's head in one hand and tossed him into the fighting ring. "In MY town, we do things differently. You want to think you're funny, you go through me!"

"Hey!" Rodger cried. "Somebody help me! This guy is crazy!" 

"Grogek!" General Renwa frowned from the side. "What is going on?"

"This pup was interrupting my training."

"Oh. Continue then." Renwa shrugged.

"This is crazy!" Rodger cried. "I'm not even from this town!"

Renwa raised an eyebrow. "If you're being disruptive, then obviously you need more training; regardless of where you hail from."

"But..." 

Grogek picked up his axe and held it on his shoulder. "You claim to be a guard, yet you refuse to fight me. The Iron Horde will eat you for a light snack." 

"Or, you could just fess up as to what you were giggling like a loon about!" Elunara called from the side. At Grogek's snort, she smiled sweetly. "I'm sure if the joke's funny enough, we can ALL have a laugh." She propped her chin on her threaded fingers. 

Rodger looked back and forth between Grogek and Elunara and turned sheet white. All at once, he turned and fled. He tripped and smashed his face, but clambered up and kept on running. Grogek burst into laughter. 

"That WAS a funny joke." He laughed.

Renwa wandered over to Elunara as Grogek went back to yelling at his trainees.

"What was that about?"

Elunara smiled up at Renwa. "The same thing that's had Jordan in a fog all day."

He frowned. "I have been wondering what's wrong with him today."

She gave a dramatic sigh. "People do like their peep shows."

"You didn't..."

She just looked up at him. With a sigh, he hung his head. "How many this time?"

"Just eight"

Renwa groaned. "I'll have Gerald on latrine duty for the next year!"

"Oh, leave off. It's part of the fun."

"Only you would think so." He straightened up and looked at the crew training. "Nonetheless, I'll have to discipl- wait, you said Jordan?" He looked down at Elunara.

"Well, he was last to the party, and I was a little preoccupied, but yes. He was there, and he got quite a look." She bit her lip. "I'd talk to Gerald about the rest."

"I will be." He murmured. 

"In fact... if you'd be so kind as to send Gerald to me, I'd be most appreciative."

"Oh Lord." Renwa muttered.

"Not that." She stopped his line of thinking. "We're going to have a little discussion about hedging his bets." She ground out between her teeth.

"Having an audience doesn't get to you, but betting does?" He shook his head.

"Oh, the betting is part of the fun. The cheating is what bothers me."

"You are a strange woman." 

She flashed a brilliant smile at him. "And yet you love me anyway."

He froze, trapped in the moment. She had turned away and returned to her work before he was able to turn away and head back to his work. 

He found Jordan sitting on a bench in the center of town. He looked dazed and confused. Renwa sat down beside the man and yet he didn't flinch. Renwa laid a hand on his arm.

"Jordan?"

"Huh?" Jordan looked around. "What?" He stared at his arm as if it were a foreign creature. He looked up at Renwa. 

"Oh. General." 

"What is wrong with you?"

"Sir?" Jordan shook his head. He stared at Renwa for a moment before flushing. "Sir! I'm sorry sir, I've..." He looked around. "Actually, I'm not sure what I've been."

"Do you need a healer?"

"No sir." Jordan sighed. "Sir, I've... I have to apologize to you sir."

"Why?"

"Because I saw her." He cleared his throat and looked away. "I saw her, with the orc."

"Grogek." Renwa corrected.

"Yes, Grogek." He was quiet for a time. "Sir, you've... seen her... like that... before."

Renwa cocked his head to the side. He wasn't sure what Jordan had seen, but knowing Elunara... "Yes, yes I have."

"She was beautiful." He whispered. 

Renwa almost didn't hear it, and for a moment thought he'd imagined it. 

"I mean!" Jordan cleared his throat and flushed. "I mean, it's just that... how can you stand it?"

"Jordan, if you would give me entire statements, this conversation would go a lot easier."

"How do you stand knowing the woman you love is giving herself to someone else? An orc no less. Yes, yes I know what he has been to us since he arrived, but he is still an orc. Not a human, not another night elf, an orc. How do you sit here and say "she belongs to him"?"

"Because she is happy." He shrugged. "It hurt. It really hurt that she chose him over me, but what did I give her?" He frowned at his own admission. He shook his head. "Elunara has always been a jovial person, but I've never seen her relax or be happy. Even when we were together, she was guarded. She reminded me every day that it was an arrangement that suited her. You were there in the woods when she read those papers. Even when she had to announce to a forest full of men, in front of the enemy, how she saw herself, she never flinched. In fact, I don't think it actually upset her. Yet, she's happy. Truly happy. I won't try to take that from her."

Jordan frowned. "I do not understand that woman."

Renwa laughed. "Who does?" 

Jordan straightened up. "She has no sense of decency, going around with other men like that. She gave herself to this orc, and you claim she is happy, yet I've heard what she does. I saw what she does. In the Orchard, in view of everyone who stumbled up there!"

"She is happy." Renwa relaxed and looked up at the sky. "She is the strangest of us all, yet she's the smartest person here. She does what makes her happy. Decency? They weren't in the middle of the town. She hasn't actively gone after a single person here. Yes, she flirts; it's a part of who she is. You take that flirtatious nature out of her and you have... nothing. No life, no personality." Renwa smacked Jordan on the back. "Stop trying to figure her out. In fact, I think you just gave me the answer to my own problem." Renwa laughed and stood up. 

Jordan watched in confusion as the General practically sang all the way to his office.

The next day, a messenger came to Elunara's door. "The General has requested you in his quarters."

"Uhh... ok." Elunara grabbed her board and supplies and headed up. At the door, the messenger shook his head and pointed to a small door off to the side of the office. She opened the door and walked into a small domicile. She shut the door behind her and found Renwa pacing in front of a bed. A small grin tugged at her lips.

"Finally take me up on my offer?"

Renwa stopped and looked at her. He was wearing plain clothes. Gone was his armor, but instead a simple shirt and pants. 

"Elunara, I've been doing a lot of thinking lately." He pulled out a small box. 

She froze, her eyes wide. "Uh..."

He opened the box and showed her a small ring.

"Jonathan, you know I can't." 

He shook his head. "I bought this for you months before I left." He pulled the ring out and held it up. "You see, I had every intention of asking you to marry me. I spent days and weeks planning it out. I had a whole speech. I knew you'd never go for flowery, so I went with logical. I was going to convince you why marrying me was the proper decision. I had even convinced myself that you could still do your missions, still have other men, and it would be ok. Of course, every time I tried to set it up..." He shrugged. 

"I actually gave it to Midge as a promise ring, but it never felt right. The ring was always supposed to be for you." He sighed.

She put her board on the table and placed her hand on his wrist. "I'm sorry."

He shook his head. "Don't be. You were never meant to be mine. I know that now."

With a half smile she inspected the ring. "It's a very pretty ring."

He nodded. "I've been doing a lot of thinking lately, and I'll admit that I've taken this ring out and looked at it every time I thought of you. I'd been going back and forth, because... while I'd like to take you to bed, you're still not mine. It hurt." He laughed. "Kind of a lot. But then yesterday I had this moment... where I realized how happy you've been. How genuinely happy you have been. And it hit me... You were never meant to be mine, and I'm ok with it."

"I... Well, I'm happy you've figured that out. And I'm glad you told me, I hope that¬ "

"Wear it." He whispered.

She stared at the ring. 

"I want to take you to bed; yes I am taking you up on your offer."

"For once, I am very confused."

Taking her hand, he placed the ring on her finger. "You enjoy a good fantasy play." He whispered. "I ask you, just this once, to wear my ring, and pretend you said yes. That's all I ask." 

"Oh, Jonathan." She looked at the ring on her finger and smiled. "Yes."

His fingertips lightly brushed her cheeks as he moved both hands on either side of his face. Softly, gently, he laid his lips on hers. She placed her hands on his chest and pressed into his kiss. Her hands roamed down and she tugged at the edge of his shirt, before tugging it up and pulling it off of him. He pulled her close and slipped a hand under her shirt. They wrestled the shirt off and stood there in their pants. 

He devoured her mouth, one hand on her jaw, the other on her breast, she arched and pressed against him as she slipped her hand down into his pants and grabbed his ass. His hand slipped back behind her neck as his tongue and teeth played on her lips. 

She knew he wanted to play it soft and slow, so she let him take the lead. Her breasts pressed against his chest as he moved his hand behind her and slid it down her pants. He cupped her ass and pressed her tight against him. Her nails lightly scratched down his back. Moving his mouth, he teased her jaw and neck, finding that spot he knew drove her mad. Gently, he raked his teeth down her throat. She shuddered under his grasp. Moving his other hand down, he slipped that into her pants and began to push them down her hips and thighs. She wiggled a little and the pants hit the floor. 

Sliding her hands down his back, she slipped her hands beneath his pants and pushed them down. When they were free, he grabbed her hips and pressed her close against his erection. Grabbing her ass, he lifted her up and turning toward the bed, laid her down on it. He climbed on top but did not enter. Tugging up the blanket, he rained kisses on her face until she giggled. Slowly, he slipped two fingers in and she writhed against him. 

As he moved his fingers, in and out, he began to whisper in her ear. She didn't hear much of it, but she understood his meaning. She racked her nails down his back and whispered the words he wanted to hear. With his free arm, he bumped hers away from his back; He slid his hand up her arm until his fingers intertwined with hers, and held the ring on her hand. He shifted his other hand out of her and after gripping her hip, slipped into her. 

Almost painfully slow, he began to move against her. He murmured whispers of love and affection. Burying his face in her hair and shoulder, his hands roamed her body. 

"I will always love you." He whispered.

"Oh, Jonathan." She breathed. 

Gently, he rocked in and out as he gained momentum. His hand clamped down on her ring hand. She rocked up against him and shuddered. His other hand gripped her ass and pressed her tight against him. When he finally gave in, he lay, spent and sweating on top of her. He twisted and shifted, lying on his back as he tugged her close to him. He pulled the blanket up around them, like a lover's embrace. Elunara laid her head on his chest. She looked down at the small ring on her hand. 

"Here, take it."

"No." He closed his hand over hers. "No, it belongs to you."

"But..."

He shook his head and stared at the ceiling. "It was always meant to be yours. I can't keep it any more. I don't want it anymore." He kissed the top of her head. "Thank you for this. I think I can finally get it out of my system."

She looked up at him. 

He smiled back at her. "As insane as it sounds, yes it's true."

With a laugh, Elunara sat up and stretched. "Men are so strange."

Renwa rubbed his hand across her back.

"So what now?" She looked back at him. "I mean, if you're over it and all."

He laughed and crossed his arms behind his head. "I don't know. But I'm okay with that." 

She got up and brought over her board. She took the moment to draw him, to capture the moment she may never see again. He looked off in the distance, as if staring holes through the ceiling and to the sky. Tucking the board away, she'd put more detail on the scene later.

With a grin she made circles on his stomach. "You can still call on me if you need me."

The muscles in his face twitched as he tried to maintain composure. Finally he grabbed her hand. "Stop that."

"You were always so ticklish." She leaned down and bit his stomach. 

He sat up like a shot. "Seriously, not funny."

"Uh, huh." She slipped her hand under the blanket. "I think you quite enjoy it."

"Elunara." He warned.

With a pout, she released him. "No fun."

He slid out of bed and yanked on his pants. "I have work I need to get back to."

"Bah. Lies." She yanked on her clothes. He buttoned up his pants and she laid a hand on his shoulder. "Are you sure you're alright?"

Reaching down, he snagged his shirt. "Actually, I am. For the first time in a long time, I feel... light. Kind of free. It's weird." He yanked the shirt over his head and moved to put on his armor. 

She just watched him for a time, as he transformed back into the General. She pulled the ring off and held it in her open palm. "And you're sure about this?"

He closed her hand around the ring. "Keep it. Please?"

With a nod she tucked it in her pocket. "I'll see you around then." Picking up her board, she grinned at him and yanked open the door. 

Standing outside the door, Jordan was posed with his arm raised to knock. At his shocked face, she gave him a wink. With a pat on his chest, she pushed on past him. 

Behind her she heard. "Ah, Captain Jordan, just the man I was going to see."



For the Whored Ch. 022



She made her way back to her barracks and closed the door. Taking the ring out of her pocket, she looked at it in her open palm for some time. She lifted and looked at the pretty little ring. It had an odd pink stone in it that was sort of shaped like a rose. Petals adored either side of the gem on the band. She wondered if it had been crafted for her, or if he'd seen it in the window like that. She placed the gem on the desk and took out her board. She sketched the little ring. She flipped to the sketch of Renwa in the bed and began to fill out details. She worked for some time, but her gaze kept returning to the ring. 

With a sigh, she sat her board to the side and laid her chin on the desk. She stared at the little ring for a long time. 

The door opened but she hardly noticed.

"You really shouldn't spend so much time indoors." Grogek chided. "What is that?" He leaned down and eyed the ring. 

"Renwa gave it to me. Apparently, before he disappeared, he was going to ask me to marry him." 

Grogek's eyebrow rose. "And now?"

She sat up and sighed. "He tells me he's over it." 

"And you don't believe it?"

"Actually I do." She sighed again. "Do I hurt you?" She looked up at him. "What I do?"

He placed his hands on her shoulders and kissed her forehead. "Of course not."

For a long moment she searched his face, before turning back to the ring. "I've tried to avoid emotional attachments." She frowned. "Not mine, mind you; but other people forming emotional attachments to me. If I thought a guy was getting too clingy, I ditched him in a heartbeat. If I guessed he was the marrying kind... well, then I limited my time. I never could give them what they wanted or needed. I was a warm body to grace their bed and away I went." She flicked the little ring, making it wobble. "I never had any idea that Jon-" She corrected herself. "Renwa was considering it. Much less that he'd bought a ring and spent months trying to figure out how to convince me."

"Why did he give you the ring now?"

"Because he finally realized that I was happy."

"That doesn't make sense."

She shook her head. "He doesn't want to marry me anymore because I have found happiness. The happiness he thought I was lacking. Some part of him thought that if I married him, he could give me the happiness I was looking for. When he realized you gave it to me, he... conceded." 

"He loves you." Grogek said it so simply, without any malice, that she almost wept with relief. 

After a moment she took a deep sighing breath. She turned in her chair and faced Grogek. "Do you... want to marry me? Actually, that's a stupid question. I meant, like do the whole ceremony, and things like that?"

He wrapped his arms around her and picked her up from the chair. "Of course I do. I want that more than breathing."

She nodded. "I'm ok with that." 

Grogek squeezed her so hard she had trouble breathing. 

"Gro..." She whimpered. "Air... need."

He released her and sat her back on her feet. "You just tell me when and where and I'll make it happen."

She gawked at the tears in his eyes. "I... well, that is..." She stammered.

He laughed. Putting his finger under her chin, he raised her face. "Making you my wife is the most important thing to me. However, you do not have to do it. I get closer each day to that, and that makes me happy. I do not want you to change. Understand that. You are precious to me. I see you, I know you. Do not think for a minute that a marriage to me would be the end of what you do, or who you are. Your heart is mine, your body is yours." He kissed her softly. "Do you understand?"

"I'm starting to." She whispered. 

"Maybe if I keep saying it." He whispered back. He nodded towards the desk. "What are you going to do about that?"

She frowned at it. "What do you think I should do?"

He blinked at her. "Can you repeat that? I think I may have taken a hit in training." 

"Ha. Ha." She walked to the desk and picked up the pretty little ring. She looked at it with a sigh. "It's kind of strange, but I wanted to put it on a necklace. I don't even know why."

"Then do that." 

"You sure?"

He shrugged. "I will give you a trinket of our love. I have no reason to be offended by someone else's trinket of affection. If he is honest, and his pursuit of you has ended, I see it as nothing but a reminder of another time." 

She nodded. "I'll see the jewel crafter in the morning." 

"I have one final question." 

She dropped the ring back on the desk. "Yes?"

"Did you...?" He shrugged. "Have him? I'm not sure how to ask that question some days."

She looked at him askance. "You certain you have no issue with me having other men?"

"Not a bit."

She sighed and looked down at the ring. "I think the best way to describe it in this case, is that I fulfilled a fantasy for him."

"Hm."

"I think I'm a terrible person." She muttered.

He wrapped his arms around her. "Why, my love?"

She felt herself blush. "Because I thought to myself, "two of his fingers, is one of yours"."

Grogek froze, before laughing hysterically. He stumbled backwards on the bed and dragged her down with him. When he finally came up for air, he wheezed. "Then we are both bad people."

"As long as I'm not alone." She grinned.

"You will never be alone again." He murmured. 

She was sitting on the center fountain drawing, when Renwa came up to her. "It's simply a beautiful day. Wouldn't you agree?"

She blinked up at him. "I should fuck you more often." She added mildly. 

He grinned and clapped her on the back. "I might let you." He cocked his head to the side and ran his finger under the thin gold chain. "New jewel-" He froze and stared at the ring. 

She snatched it back and tucked it back under her shirt. "Don't ask. I'll explain it when I figure it out." 

"I... I'm honored." He whispered. "Does Grogek know?"

"He told me to wear it... as a symbol of a past remembered." 

Renwa nodded. "Then I am doubly honored."

"So, did Jordan throw a fit?"

"Like you wouldn't believe." He laughed. "You should have stayed, I would have paid for a sketch of-" He broke off when she handed him a piece of paper. "You didn't." He started laughing. A couple of passersby looked confused, but scurried on. "This! This is going in my office." He smacked the picture with one hand.

"I figured you'd like that." She grinned. "So, how goes it?" She returned to sketching. "Aside from the healthy sex glow."

"I've told Gerald that he has to report to you at his first convenience."

"Which we all know is leader speak for "right fucking now."

"I missed our witty banter." 

She grinned. 

"A new round of trainees is headed in. It appears that our "orc" training regimen has become something of an envy to our neighbors."

"Nice." 

"I'm having Ina really push your program. I think having more portraits will be helpful to her and I am seeing improvement in morale."

"Nice. Remind people that I don't require naked."

He nodded. "In any event, I hope you will be busy soon."

"Good." She tapped her pencil on the board. "Hey, send Jerry my way when you get a chance."

"Anything I should be worried about?"

"Nah. Just a little fib I caught him in."

He nodded again. "Understood."

Renwa marched on, whistling away. Shortly after, Ina showed up, and Elunara just sat down her pencil. 

"Good Lord, what happened to that man?" She shook her head. "He came into my room all whistles and good cheer." Ina paused and looked up at Elunara. "What did you do?"

Elunara waved her away. "Oh, don't be like that. We just worked out some unresolved issues." 

Ina eyed her for a moment. "Well, whatever you did, it worked. So I guess I can't complain about it." She propped her hands on her hips. "I've decided that maybe you can't get any volunteers for your project because people might be intimidated by going to your room, so I cleared a room in the healing building."

"Thanks Ina."

She nodded and left.

Elunara picked up her pencil and tapped it on her board. At the figure approaching, she sighed and put the board down. 

"General Renwa said you wanted to see me? Ma'am." He added hastily.

"Jerry, I don't mind being used, but I do mind being lied to about it."

He fidgeted on his feet as his eyes shifted back and forth. "Uhh, Ma'am?"

"You're not saving yourself for a special GIRL, are you?"

He swallowed hard. "I don't know what you mean."

"Jerry, I'm not stupid. Maybe I overlooked the truth, but stupid I am not." She threaded her fingers in front of her. "For the record, I didn't have sex with Louis. Not that you shall dare repeat that."

He openly gawked at her.

"You see, I don't mind covering up an "embarrassing" secret, but I don't like it when someone isn't honest about it." She stood up and, placing her hand on his shoulders, dropped her voice to a whisper. "Jerry, you should have told me you were gay. It'd make it a whole lot easier to set you up with Louis. Now you get that hanging over your head. Take him aside and make things right. Oh, and don't mention this little conversation."

"I..."

She turned him around and gave him a shove. "Bye, Jerry."

Picking up her board, she gave up and went back to her room. She had only been in her room a short while when there was a knock on the door. With a sigh she yanked it open.

"Gerald, there you are." She called sweetly. 

"General Renwa said that I should..." He hesitated as if looking for the right word. "Volunteer for your project."

"Yes, yes. Come in." She ushered him to the center of the room and positioned him how she liked. She down and began. She kept herself carefully neutral until she got him down to his pants. 

He started to remove them and she stood up, sauntering over. "Here, let me help you." she purred. Slowly, she pushed his pants to the ground. Even he couldn't help but get a little excited. She put her finger on the tip of his dick and lightly pressed down, giggling when it sproinged back up. 

"You see, Gerald," She began her thorough inspection of his body. "I'm well aware that you've been my spotter for many years now. You sit in the shadows and report back if I'm alive or dead. I also know that you were told to monitor me and the orc while we were in town. As well as the fact, that your commission as spotter was terminated a couple of months ago." He was frozen in place. "But, also on the list of things I know, is that..." She lowered her voice to a whisper and leaned to his ear. "You like to watch."

"I..." 

She leaned back and moved further down his body. "Oh, the first time you could claim you were just doing your duty, but not the second. And neither time can you explain away the audience."

His whole body began to shake. She casually jotted down some faint scarring.

"Now I see why you were never a field agent... you break too easily under pressure." She flicked his limp dick.

He winced but said nothing.

"You see Gerald; I actually don't care about your spying. Hell, I don't even care about the audience." She leaned forward again. "I like the attention." She grinned.

At his wide eyed expression, she laughed. 

"The orc doesn't care either. If it makes me happy, it makes him happy." She shrugged.

Gerald began to relax.

"Then there's the betting." 

He stiffened his shoulders.

She tapped an ear. "Night elf hearing, dumbass." She shook her head and continued to draw. "Now, I can't actually tell you if the orc knows about the betting. We haven't had that discussion. Quite frankly, I don't even care about the betting."

He looked around nervously and opened and closed his mouth a few times.

"What I DO care about, is cheating." She snapped her pencil down and approached him. "You've read my dossier, you've studied my movements. Every bet YOU make is a cheat. The one thing you never count on is the emotional connection I have with Grogek. Granted, even I can't bet on that one. Between the two episodes, you've managed to make almost a thousand gold."

"I-I-"

She marched over to him and grabbed him by the balls, twisting them. He shrieked and crumpled to the ground.

"I'm sorry! He squeaked, I didn't..."

"Didn't know? How stupid are you?" She tightened her grip until he was sheet white. "You listen, and you listen well. I don't care about the spying, I happen to like the audience. I don't even care for your betting pools. But so help me, if you profit off of one more stolen silver using me, I will hunt you down."

"Yes Ma'am!" He squeaked.

She released him and returned to her board. "Be gone from my sight."

Gerald took several breaths before yanking his clothes on in a hurry and grabbing the rest of his things and fleeing out the door. On the other side of the door he crashed into General Renwa. He hit the ground and skidded. He scrambled up, saluted the General and said "Next time, can I have latrine duty?" Without waiting for an answer, he fled.

Renwa stared at Gerald's retreating form for a long moment. He turned back to Elunara. "I am suddenly very glad I never made you angry."

She scoffed. "And they think Grogek is scary."

"You two are absolutely terrifying."

With a careless shrug, she continued to stow her things. "What brings you this way?"

He scratched the back of his head. "I wanted to let you know that I received communication that Tyrine has been pitching a royal shitfit back in Darnassus."

Elunara just stared. "What more could they do to me?"

"She wants you tried for treason."

Elunara smacked her own forehead. "Elune guide me." 

"I wouldn't put much on it. Given how this time dimensional stuff is right now. The notification was half burnt." He shrugged. "I seriously doubt-"

"Say her name and I will punch you in the nuts."

"That SHE has enough time to even worry about it."

"Tyrine doesn't bother me. Neither does SHE." 

"Elunara." Renwa's voice was low. "I know you're upset. You can talk to me about it. But have you told Grogek?"

She looked away. "Not all of it."

"You should."

She shrugged. "I'll get to it."

He was quiet for a moment. "Fresh meat arrives tomorrow morning. Have your pencils ready."

She smiled. "You know me."

He laid a hand on her cheek. "Yes. Yes I do."



For the Whored Ch. 023



The next morning, she surveyed the scene with a detached sort of interest. Behind the training yard line, their current recruits stood, full armor, at the ready. An impressive site to some. They were waiting on two things to happen. One was the wagon load from a town down the way, and a portal. As the portals in to Draenor were stabilized, they allowed for more troops. Additional training was needed if these troops were to survive this savage new world. Lately, it had gotten out that troops trained by Grogek were tougher and better at survival than the traditionally trained. Several of his top picks had key guard positions. 

The crowd shifted as everyone turned to observe the wagon train ride in. Once it came to a full stop, about fifteen troops filed in to the training yard. At the General's command, they formed a couple of lines. Elunara began to furiously sketch as hard and fast as she could manage. The Mages stepped up to the platform and began to channel. This was a little more difficult as the runes changed too rapidly for her to even get a basic sketch. Then the portal was opened and a steady stream of men formed lines behind the first men. Each man was fully armored, with weapons, and backpacks on their backs. A set of crates and barrels and other miscellaneous goods was transported through until one of the mages collapsed. Elunara recognized the signs of magical exhaustion. Thankfully Ina was there with a couple of new healers to help out with the mages. 

Elunara counted thirty new soldiers from the portal. The General began to address the crowd, but she only listened with half an ear as she sketched. He explained basic rules and the layout of some of the town and the expectations. Renwa held out a hand. 

"You will all take orders directly from Commander Grogek!"

Elunara's head snapped up and she openly stared. The men from town all murmured amongst themselves, but it quickly died out. Grogek was far too disciplined, and the untrained eye could see nothing. She, however, knew that face well, and saw the widening of the eyes, the barely parted lips. He was just as blind-sided as she. The General continued on, ignoring all else, until she stepped aside to let "Commander" Grogek speak.

"Why is it, your precious Alliance continues to send me CHILDREN?" He bellowed. 

Elunara inwardly smirked. The difference between the new men and the town's men was drastic. Grogek continued about his usual huffery as she examined the new recruits. 

She leaned on her board and cocked an eye at Renwa. 

"I was going to tell you yesterday, but I got sidetracked by that damned communiqué" 

"He's extremely honored, I assure you."

"You'd know." Renwa shrugged. "Damn them. They told me we were getting fifteen new recruits through the portal, not thirty. They sent some extra supplies but according to the shipping docket, it's not all here. I'll have to see if we can get the mages to try again." 

"I have no qualms about using my services to get more supplies."

"We'll keep that in reserve." He sighed. "I'm not sure I have room for all of them."

"Do you need our building back?"

"Hopefully not." He shook his head. "Maybe we can rearrange a bit. Promote a couple of troops, ship them out to destinations. We'll make the space."

She tapped a pencil on her board. "You never used to come to me with this stuff."

"I..." He blinked. "Hmm." 

She stood up and tucked her stuff into her board and closed it. She handed it to Renwa. "I think it's time for a demonstration." She grabbed her staff from the weapon rack and sauntered on over to the edge of the ring.

Renwa took a peek in the board and grinned at her drawings. Yeah, he could see the surprise on Grogek's face.

Grogek was going through his list of expectations, when he spotted Elunara. He thrust out his hand. 

"This is Elunara. Know her, fear her."

She smirked at that. "Up for the usual?" She called. 

He grinned at her as he hefted his axe on to his shoulder. "Which ending are we taking?"

"The one where I embarrass you in front of your new recruits."

"I thought you said we wouldn't repeat the performance in front of Grommash."

She cackled and twirled her staff. 

"Get your asses out of the way!" Yelled Gerald. 

The new recruits looked confused, but managed to clamber to the sides of the ring. Grogek and Elunara stepped in to the ring on opposite sides. 

They began their dance of death. 

They warred for quite some time, and Elunara huffed and puffed. Grogek was getting meaner. "Oh, you have been going soft on me, you big jerk."

He laughed. "Heart of my heart, I could never go for blood. Yours runs hot enough as it is, I might burn myself."

She pointed her staff at him. "Was that an insult?"

He held his hand out and did a come here gesture. "Come, little she-wolf." 

"You said that last night, but the tone was different." She mimicked.

He roared in laughter. She struck the inside of his thigh with her staff. He yelped. "Watch where you are aiming!" 

She darted backwards. "Like I'd injure those... I use those." 

He started to laugh again, but she caught him under the chin. He roared and swung but she'd already made her opening, she jumped on top of the axe and ran up the hilt, across his arm. She dodged him as he attempted to grab her. She whacked him in the head and slid down his back, her heel connecting with the back of his knee. He fell over backwards. 

"Impressive." He grinned. 

One of the new recruits leaned back. "Are they just toying with each other?"

Gerald nodded. "They're lovers. This is foreplay to these lunatics."

"They're killing each other."

"Trust me. He's not even trying, and she just thinks it's funny."

He popped up and took a swing. She jumped on his axe again, but he was better prepared. She took the connect, but had already done her damage. He held her up by the leg. 

"Cute trick, but it won't work twi-" He dropped the axe and stared at his hand. "What did you do?"

"Numbed it." 

He shook it. "Damn it." He shook her. 

She giggled before swinging up and grabbing him by the fangs. "My point." She said, before twisting herself with a yank in such a way, that she toppled him forward. The movement caused him to fling her over his head. With a lithe movement she landed neatly on the edge of the ring. 

"See? You can bring down the Iron Horde!" She cried cheerily. 

"You cheat." Grogek mumbled. He stood up and cracked his neck. 

"Damned skippy." She winked. 

"Wait, how did she cheat?" asked one of the new recruits.

"Because I have spent the last thirty years learning everything there is to know about the body. Pressure points and what they do." She grabbed Grogek's outstretched hand and popped it back in place. As he flexed his hand, she continued. "I've also spent the last several months figuring out how those same pressure points work in an orc body, namely his. No, you won't be learning from me. I couldn't teach you if I tried. So yes, I cheated. This was never a fair..."

Grogek went down on one knee and blinked at her in confusion.

"Shoot, I forgot about that one. Hold on." She knelt down, and reaching under him, jammed her fingers in a couple of points. "That better?" 

He stood up and checked his stance. "Yes. Thank you, my love."

"Thank me later, when I show you something I figured out a few minutes ago." 

"Oh, really?"

She just grinned. Turning back she addressed the crowd. "My name is Elunara, as Commander Grogek just told you. If you're particularly stupid and haven't figured it out, Grogek and I are something of an item. Which is part of why he holds back when fighting me. This little spar was more of a joke to lighten the mood." She twirled the staff a little before tossing it back to Grogek. "I am well aware that you just left your homes. No matter if you have seen battle before, or are fresh out of Alliance boot camp, you just walked out of a world you know and into the most brutal and savage world you have ever seen. 

At every turn we are tested, as members of the Alliance, to do our best for the good of the Alliance. We have seen the opening of outlands, the attacks of dragons, hordes of scourge tearing at our flesh and weakening our minds. We have even seen the destruction of our world at the hands of a kill crazed dragon named Deathwing. Maybe you got the see the beauty of Pandaria, or maybe you froze your nuts off in Northrend. But this world will test your sanity like never before. I have been so kind to you, as to bring you one of the biggest, meanest damned Iron Horde orcs I could con into following me." 

There was laughter from the local soldiers. 

"I wouldn't piss him off, though. He likes making your life a living hell."

Nervous laughter this time.

"Though, I was recently informed... I'm a hell of a lot scarier." She shrugged. "Who knew, right?"

A couple of men raised their hands. 

She raised an eyebrow. "Now isn't that fascinating?" With another shrug, she threw out her arms. "Welcome to hell, sugarbuns. If you want a commemorative picture of you looking all shiny and heroic, just come to my building, and I'll give you the art sitting of your life." With a wink she turned around and strode over to Grogek. "Give em hell, sugar." She grabbed a fang and yanked his face down to hers.

After a few whistles from the locals, she released him, patted him on the chest and took her board from Renwa. "Sorry, did I take over again?"

He shook his head. "You can't help yourself, can you?"

"Never."

With a sigh, he shook his head. "That's actually a pretty heroic speech from you. It was nice of you to try and make them feel better about what just happened."

She shrugged it off. "I just like making a spectacle of myself." 

Renwa stepped up to the area. "For those of you wandering what to do with your stuff, we have made some arrangements, there seems to be more of you than was expected, so we'll have to make other arrangements."

As Renwa continued to talk, Elunara opened her board and continued to draw. 

The next few days were a complete mess. While Grogek continued his training regimes, the rest of the town frantically built new barracks. Renwa was busy giving new assignments to soldiers Grogek considered ready, and Elunara had gotten a few of the locals asking for portraits. She had made use of Ina's room for some of the more timid volunteers. She hadn't had a single one that appeared receptive to her usual desires, so she played nice. At least she had some of the better built builders standing in front of her naked. Though most of them were married and she earned dirty looks from their wives. 

Ina was thrilled to have a guide to use when treating injuries on people who'd had art sittings. Her enthusiasm for the project earned Elunara more time in the healer's spare room. It felt completely strange to be treated like an accepted member of a town. 

She was sitting in her barracks sorting through her drawings, when Grogek came in. 

"I've convinced the General to let me take my troops on a four day hike. That should get them out of the way while some of the preparations have been finished. They helped out plenty with back work, now they're just in the way."

"Hold on I'll get my things."

"I was only letting you know..."

"I am bored out of my goddamned mind. I am going with you, or I will punch you in the nuts."

He blinked at her. "Yeap, you're unhappy. You'd never threaten that else wise."

She gathered up several small piles of paper and wrapped them in specially enchanted twine. These she numbered and left on her desk in a pattern. She tucked a set up pencils in another special prepared package. Finally she set up the paper in her boards, and chucked it over her shoulder. 

"The men are bringing their packs; you may bring other things if you wish."

"Nah." She adjusted the strap and headed toward Grogek. "Everything I need is here. It's only four days. Night Elves can spend weeks in the wilderness without complaint."

He nodded. "I wish to see your world one day."

She sighed. "It's beautiful. Not that you'd ever be allowed to see MY homeland. I'm not even welcome there."

"I'm sorry."

She patted him on the cheek. "I've had years to cope with it. I just miss it sometimes." 

Grogek led the way to the training yard. Standing in the yard were the new trainees, along with Captain Jordan and some of the other newly promoted soldiers. She spied Jerry and Louis standing near each other. They had been promoted as guards for the town. They specifically requested to not be deployed. She smiled at that. She popped open her board and began to draw the proceedings. 

Grogek would lead the way, with Jordan, Jerry and Louis helping to keep all forty five new members in line. She found it interesting that it seemed as if they weren't there to keep tabs on Grogek. She quite enjoyed that. She knew he had been fluffier than a peacock since being promoted to Commander. It wasn't an honorary title either. Renwa had made that known. Jordan eyed her. 

"Why is she here?"

"I plan on documenting the entire exercise. I need to get us information on plants, and terrain. In effect, I'm doing my job. The one I've always had."

He frowned at her, but said nothing further. They headed out north. They travelled out for a few hours before she began to sketch. At first she'd just marked quick positioning sketches, but when she tried to make more detailed work, she'd fall behind and have to jog to catch up. Finally Grogek scooped her up and tossed her on his shoulder. 

"Thanks, Sweetie."

He nodded, but said nothing.

Draping her legs on either side of his shoulders, she propped her back against his head and sketched in relative comfort. When Grogek finally called for a halt, the new guys seemed to collapse on themselves. She slid down and stretched. He dropped his axe to the ground beside her. 

"I'm told I should give you wimps a one hours rest at this point. I'm giving you forty-five minutes. We have more ground to cover, and this is the easy stuff. We're going to take a dip into Gorgrond, and then head back south. You want to know the worst you'll have to face? Gorgrond is a place few dare to tread. I've been told your Alliance has a few outposts in that hellacious jungle. You get assigned there; you will have more to worry about than missing fifteen minutes." 

He wandered off to inspect the troops. There was a soldier still up and wandering around. She wandered over to him. "Linal?"

He looked over. "Elunara! There you are." He grabbed her hands.

"Elune be praised, I never thought I'd see a familiar face again. How are things? Please tell me Darnassus remains undamaged after all that has happened."

"Darnassus is just as beautiful as ever. She still won't let you back in?"

"All Sentinels have a kill on sight if I try to enter." 

He sighed. "It really wasn't your fault." 

She shook her head. "Please don't bring it up. She thinks it was my fault and that's all that needs to happen." 

He frowned. "So, you and the orc?"

"Weird, I know."

"Well, you never were picky."

"Hey!" She whacked him on the arm.

"You and your exotic tastes."

She lightly punched him on the arm. "Joined the alliance army, eh?"

"I wanted to see the past as it happened. But, this is all different isn't it?"

"Garrosh stopped the future for this place."

"So strange."

Grogek appeared behind Linal. "A friend of yours?"

Linal quickly dropped her hand. 

"We grew up as children together." She laughed. "Don't worry, Groggy only bites if you screw up in training. He isn't the jealous sort." She ran her hand on Grogek's arm. 

Linal laughed. "I think your-"

She glared at him. 

He coughed. "She would have a heart attack."

Elunara shrugged. "Not my problem."

"I thought I told you to rest." Grogek raised an eyebrow at Linal. 

"It's the night elf in me. All this walking is a casual jog to me. I'll be tired by tomorrow sometime, probably." He grinned at Elunara. "Of course, you're totally cheating, riding on Commander Grogek's back."

"I..." She held up her board. "Have been busy working."

Linal's eyes grew wide as he reached out for the board and stared at the drawings. "Lulu, your work is amazing."

"Don't call me that." She muttered.

"Lulu?" Grogek raised an eyebrow. 

"Don't YOU call me that either."

"If only your mother could see this." He whispered.

Elunara yanked the board back. "Well, she won't."

"I like "Lulu"." Grogek laughed. 

"Don't call me that. It's a name given to me by a child, when we were children!" She snapped and walked away. 

"She has been very cranky lately." Grogek commented. 

"I shouldn't have said that. She'll be cross at me for months." Linal sighed.

"About her mother?"

Linal stared at Grogek. "She hasn't told you?" 

"Told me?"

Linal sighed. "It's not mine to tell. Please don't ask her about it until we get back. I don't want to disappear in the middle of the night."

Grogek frowned and watched Elunara climb up a tree. He ignored her while he monitored the troops. When it was time to move, he called up to her in the tree. "Love, it's time to go." 

She dropped down and landed on his shoulder before sliding down to the ground. "I'm just going to walk for awhile." 

He nodded to her. She wouldn't look at him, and he was concerned. It was nearly night and she hadn't so much as looked into her board. He frowned. He called for night, and once again the troops collapsed in heaps.

"THIS is the best your alliance can give me? Pathetic!" He roared. Now, he was in a bad mood. 

When Elunara found a large rock to prop herself on and returned to drawing, the tightness in his chest loosened. He frowned at the night elf approaching her. 

The new night elf stooped down in front of Elunara. "Could you move, I ne—Vivi?" Elunara blinked. 

The female night elf smiled. "Hello, Lulu. It's been awhile."

"What... why is a sentinel all the way out here?"

She blushed and looked back. "I was following someone."

Elunara leaned over. "Linal? Wow." She cleared her throat. "I never expected the only female who doesn't hate me, to wind all the way out here."

Vivi laughed. "You know, I never blamed you. In fact, I was always so envious of you."

Now Elunara just sat there in complete shock. "What now?"

Vivi scooted next to Elunara and sat down. "Oh, sure you made mistakes, but you always followed your heart." At Elunara's raised eyebrow, she giggled. "Not like that. You had to be you, no matter who it hurt. You tried to not hurt them anyway, but still you never said no to your impulses. I always wanted to, but never could. When... it happened, I felt it was more a casualty of being who you are, rather than something you sat out to do. I know what everyone else thought, but I never agreed." She sighed.

Elunara snorted. "Now I see it, you're the only girl I didn't screw her boyfriend." 

Vivi laughed. "Isn't that funny? I doubt my mind would change even if you did have sex with Linal."

Elunara tapped her pencil on her board. "Why?"

Vivi shrugged. "Not your fault he was weak enough to try. I always thought, that a man who threw away logic to prove a point, was spineless. That's not bravery, that's stupidity."

"Now, if you could go take that speech to Darnassus..."

Vivi giggled again. "I actually tried it." She sighed. "Tyrine has it out for you."

"Tell me something I don't know." 

"They're listening." She whispered.

Elunara shook her head. "Let them listen, what can they do to me out here?"

"Just be careful." Vivi whispered.

"Oh man, my legs are killing me." One of the soldiers stretched. 

Another snorted. "My whole body's killing me. These hills are ridiculous."

"Pfft, wish I could hitch a ride on the orc." The first one sneered.




For the Whored Ch. 023



"Don't think you want to "ride" that one." The second one snerked. "That's the lazy bitch's job."

"Dude, I..."

The second began to shriek as he grabbed his face. 

Elunara walked over and yanked the pencil out of his bloody cheek. "Be glad I didn't aim for your balls." She said as she began to clean her pencil and walk away. She turned and looked back. "And stop screaming like a little bitch." She flopped down beside Vivi and picked up her board.

"See? That's what I'm talking about." Vivi giggled again. "I'm not sure I could defend my honor in such a badass way."

Elunara shrugged and grinned. "I've been doing it for decades."

"The first thing I've done for myself was leave Darnassus and I've probably been disowned over it." 

"Well, being a sentinel is a huge honor."

"Don't have to tell me twice." She groaned. "My mother never shut up about it."

They had a giggle. Grogek was examining the man with a hole in his cheek, and after scoffing, moved on about what he was doing. 

"Elune, he is huge." Vivi breathed. 

"You have NO idea." Elunara winked. 

"I can't say you have bad taste."

Grogek walked over. "My rounds are done; I'm going to sleep on the edge of camp." He pointed. 

"Alright." Elunara closed her board, and stood up. "Later, Vivi." 

"Friend?" 

Elunara shrugged as she laced her fingers with his. "I can't say." She leaned her head against his shoulder. "She doesn't hate me, at least."

"For you, that's a start." 

She smacked him in the stomach. Might as well have a butterfly land there instead, but he got the gist. At the edge of the landing, he sat and tugged her into his lap. 

"Is everything ok?" 

She leaned back and sighed. Pulling out her board, she began to draw the beautiful night scene below her. "I've just been sitting on stupid annoyances. Not my usual self."

He licked her neck. She shifted and purred. He slipped on one hand down her pants and the other up her shirt. 

"Mmm you know me too well some days."

"We shall work on what's really bothering you when we get home. For now..." He buried a finger deep in her. "We'll take the edge off." 

She closed her board and, sitting it to the side, just enjoyed what Grogek could do to her.

The next morning, she woke up wrapped in his arms, his chin pressed into the top of her head. She wiggled her way free, but Grogek was awake and tugged her back in. 

"You know, we need to get walking."

"Pfft, these children sleep too late." 

"All the more reason we should get them moving." 

He bit her neck. "I hate when you're reasonable."

She sat up and looked around. "Jordan's giving me the evil eye." 

"He has been unpleasant since you had sex with Renwa."

"My theory is that he thinks I should marry Renwa and make an honest woman of myself." 

Grogek considered. "That would follow."

Over the next few days, Elunara spent part of the walk on Grogek's shoulder, capturing the moment, and everything they passed. She made accurate charts and graphs for the General. By time they made it back home, all of the troops were looking a little worse for wear. Elunara almost felt disappointed she didn't get to walk as much as she wanted to. The artwork was more important. We wondered if she should prep more paper if Grogek took another trek. 

General Renwa met them when they arrived. "We now have adequate room for those who have been sleeping on the floor. Dela will take you all to your barracks."

Elunara handed over a pack of papers. 

General Renwa flipped through it. "Your reconnaissance is always flawless."

She saluted and continued on. 

"Why does that man have a bandage on his face?" Renwa nodded to the man. 

"He pissed off Elunara." Grogek shrugged. 

"Ah." Renwa ignored the injured man's protest. "Carry on then."

Elunara was digging through her papers when she heard the knock on the door. Pushing everything aside, she went to the door. She blinked a few times at Jordan's unhappy face.

He nodded stiffly. "General Renwa has decided that I should have my picture done, to encourage other soldiers to do the same."

She narrowed her eyes. "He did, did he?"

"He made it a command." 

She stifled the snicker. "Come in then." She gestured. 

He stepped in and looked around. Elunara moved to collect her things. 

"He said I was to have the full treatment. Whatever that means."

Elunara paused and looked at Jordan. "He did?"

"Yes."

She shrugged. "It means you'll be in Ina's book."

"Ah."

She positioned him in the center of the room in the way she liked. She sat down and began to draw. She worked with him for some time. When he was down to his pants, he finally opened his mouth. 

"I don't like how to you play with General Renwa's emotions."

She raised an eyebrow but continued to work. 

"He loves you. Doesn't that mean a damned thing to you?"

"It means plenty. Pants off."

"What?"

"He did say full treatment, you ninny. Take the pants off."

"Fine." He muttered as he complied. "Do you do this to everybody?"

"How do you think I get my drawings? Make them up?" 

He blinked for a moment and flushed. 

"Turn."

He complied. "I don't know what you did to him, but it's not right."

"I made him happy."

"I know what you did WITH him, but whatever game you're playing, needs to stop."

"Are you in love with him?"

Jordan sputtered. "Don't be absurd! I am straight, and he is my commanding officer. If he's too distracted by your... wiles, then how good will he be in a crisis?" Jordan turned when she indicated. "It's just cruel, whatever you promised him. I don't care what the result was, because in the end, it's just going to destroy him."

"Wow, he tells you nothing, does he?"

"He told me you worked something out."

She shrugged. "That much is true." She put her board to the side and walked to the naked Jordan. She began her usual inspection.

"What are you doing?" 

She added some to the sketch. "Being accurate." Slowly she worked his way around her body. She privately grinned at his involuntary reaction to her. "And for your information, he told me that he doesn't love me anymore. At least..." She paused and considered. "Not like that. He told me that he didn't want to marry anymore."

"He wanted to marry you?" 

She considered her sketch. "Bought a ring and everything." She fiddled with the detail. "When he told me, he released himself from a big secret hanging over his head. He finally found... what is the word? Closure. The fact he didn't want me anymore, has made him happy."

Jordan visibly relaxed. "He doesn't?"

"Not a bit."

"Oh. I guess..."

She slipped her mouth over his dick. He yelped and grabbed her shoulders. She sucked on the head of his dick for a moment before breaking contact. 

"What are you doing?!" 

"Oh, dear. Renwa didn't tell you what "full treatment" was, did he?"

"No." Jordan whimpered.

She licked the length of him. "I think you need it. You're just too tense."

He shuddered. "Would you stop that?"

She flicked the tip of his dick. "Did you not enjoy it?"

He shivered. "Yes, I did."

"You'd want to finish, wouldn't you?" She purred as she trailed her fingers up his dick. 

"Yes." He whimpered. 

She stood up and pushed him at a bed. "Don't worry." She whispered. "This one's for guests." She pushed him down, and when he sat, she knelt before him and sucked his dick while she cupped his balls. Pulling off her own clothes in the process, she worked him for awhile until he was where she wanted him, then shoved him over and straddled him.

"Wait!"

She paused and looked down at him. 

"What about Grogek?"

She shrugged. "What about him?" She slipped down on to Jordan's dick and began to ride him. He grabbed at her breast and her ass. She worked him into quite a state, when Grogek walked in. One look at the pair, and he closed the door behind him.

Jordan began to struggle. Elunara just pushed him back down. "Hello, Sugarbear." She purred.

"I see what's going on here."

"No!" Cried Jordan. "It's not... I mean she just... I tried..." 

Grogek walked over and pulled his pants down. He grabbed Elunara's hips from behind and pushed himself into her ass. She squealed in delight. 

"I hope you're still hard." Grogek growled. 

Jordan's face was frozen in a fascinated fear. As Grogek began to thrust into Elunara's ass, he caused her to buck up and down on Jordan's dick. Jordan winced at the weight of the both of them and he was a little worried that it was Grogek's balls he felt on his own, but couldn't help himself by this point. Grogek used a hand to tug Elunara's face to his. Jordan watched them devour each other. She reached her hands up and back around Grogek's head and neck. She was thrust up and down as Grogek pumped. Jordan found himself gripping her ass like a life saver. Unsure of what to do, he lifted one hand and played with her nipple. She gasped in pleasure. The two of them worked at a ferocious pace, and Jordan found it difficult to keep up. This was all horribly wrong and yet he... His short fingernails dug into the flesh of her hips as he shuddered. 

"Oh dear, I think we broke him." Elunara pouted. 

Grogek lifted her off of Jordan's dick and sat back with himself still deep in her ass. As he fucked her ass, he slipped a pair of fingers deep in her. Jordan watched with a fascination he could not stop. Grogek held Elunara by the elbow with one hand, and the other had two of his fingers buried in her. He was literally lifting her up by those two fingers, sliding her up and down on his dick. Her back was against Grogek's chest, her breasts in the air. Jordan felt his body move of its own accord. He reached the pair, who seemed to be ignoring him. His hands were reaching for those breasts, and he began to fondle her nipples. She gasped in pleasure and looked at him. He bent his head down and began to suck. As he sucked and fondled, he felt himself get hard again. He was shocked when Grogek's hand grabbed and pulled Jordan into her. 

"Fuck her." Growled Grogek. 

Jordan grabbed Elunara's legs and began to thrust deep into her. He teased her breasts with his other hand and mouth. When she began to shake, he tried to move, but she wrapped her legs around him and pulled him in. His eyes went wide as she clamped down around him. She dug her fingernails into his shoulder and he shook with the second orgasm. He fell backwards on to his ass. 

Grogek slowly raised Elunara up. Jordan could not tear his eyes away as he watched Grogek slip out of Elunara's ass and flop down. Even limp, Grogek's dick was more impressive than Jordan wanted to admit. Grogek carefully sat Elunara in his lap. He wrapped his arms around her waist and buried his face in her hair and shoulder. "Are you satisfied, my love?" He murmured. 

"Quite." Elunara licked her lips. "I liked that one, we should keep it handy."

"As you wish."

Elunara stood up and stretched. 

"I..." Jordan watched her walk around the room. His sight tracked back to Grogek. "Uhh... I..."

Elunara tossed a towel to Grogek, which he used to clean himself. She tossed a towel down in front of Jordan, and she cleaned herself up. He grabbed the towel and continued to gawk at the both of them.

"You really don't care, do you?" He blurted.

"Care about what?" Grogek asked, as he pulled on his pants.

Elunara was already dressed and drawing. She raised an eyebrow at Jordan. "Why do people keep asking that?"

"Oh, the sex thing." He shrugged. "Because they can't believe I have reason?"

"Possibly." She shook her head with a shrug. 

Jordan cleaned himself and put his clothes back on. Grogek was standing behind Elunara, his chin on the top of her head, and his arms around her waist. They looked so comfortable, that Jordan felt ashamed. He put his hand on the handle of the door. He looked back again.

"I'm sorry." He said, and then left. 

"Sorry for what, I wonder." Grogek murmured. 

"Could be any number of things." Elunara commented, as she continued to detail her sketches.



For the Whored Ch. 024



A few days later, Renwa found her by the fountain, drawing. 

"What did you do to my Captain?"

She sat her pencil down. "Why?"

"Because he won't look me in the face, and he avoids Grogek at all costs."

"Oh... do you want the specifics? Because that might not be a good thing to discuss in public places." 

"I wanted you to make him relax, not make him edgier."

"Oh, don't blame that on me. He's the one who went for a twofer, and that was AFTER Grogek got involved."

"Holy shit."

She shrugged. "I got plans for you when I get you and Grogek in my room at the same time." She winked.

He actually blushed. "You know no bounds." 

"Damned skippy" 

"Huh. The caravan is early." Renwa walked the direction of the entrance to town. Elunara closed her board and followed along. 

The foreman of the wagon train jumped down. 

"You're early." Called Renwa.

The wagon master nodded. "Yeah, about that." He nodded to Elunara before turning back to Renwa. "You see, we picked up some extra passengers recently. A group of adventurers freed some slaves from the ogres. You know how that goes."

Renwa nodded.

"Anyway, they had nowhere to go, so we've carried them with us, trying to find someone who'll take em off our hands. Unfortunately, the women came from the sex slavers."

Renwa swore.

The wagon master nodded. "They're kind of messed up; if you get my meaning. Anyway, they heard about your little art project, and they've acted like it was their mission in life to get here."

Renwa sighed. "I just figured out how to store all of the new recruits we got in. Now I have to figure this out. How many?" 

The wagon master winced. "Twelve of them."

Renwa groaned. 

Elunara popped open her board and began to draw. The other crew had begun to empty the wagons, and passengers climbed out. She continued to document the scene as Renwa continued to talk to the wagon master. She saw them. They were sort of obvious. Four Draenei women huddled together in a lump. They looked around the area and looked frightened. Elunara strolled towards them, sketching them all the while. Finally one of the women noticed her and nudged the others. 

Once she was close enough, Elunara added details. She recognized that almost dead look in a couple of the faces, but the one in front looked at her with avid interest.

"Are you the artist?" Her accent was pretty thick.

Elunara held up the quick portrait of the four women. They looked at the picture in amazement. "My name is Elunara." She smiled and held out the picture.

The front woman took the picture. "I am Tulani." She handed it to another woman. "This is Nia, Lysel and Minya."

"Come, let's go somewhere more private." Elunara cocked her head to the side and then walked on. She led the small group of women to her barracks and let them in. 

The women eyed the beds nervously, so Elunara pulled out some chairs. Three of the women had their chairs close enough that they could continue to lean on each other, but the fourth woman, Tulani, watched her like a hawk. Elunara could appreciate the sentiment. 

"I have heard you came to participate in my portrait project."

Tulani was the only one to speak. "We heard that you were drawing people to make a catalogue of them. So that they can be found and identified, should anything happen. We want to do that."

Elunara considered. "I have not done women yet, but I'm willing to give it a shot. Let me explain my methods and your options." 

Tulani nodded. 

"First, I will draw you, fully clothed, in a standing position. Front, sides and back. Next I will draw you in the nude. Front, sides, and back. When I am satisfied with my drawings, I will go over your body completely, finding scars, skin shading, tattoos, anything like that. Once I am finished, we can work on poses. If you want a simple portrait, fully clothed, we can stop there. You will have to describe any anomalies that I need to catalogue. However, for the process of identification, being fully naked is the most accurate. At any point in time, you tell me to not continue, I will stop. Are you ok with that?"

The three women whimpered and cringed as Elunara spoke. Tulani had twitched, but maintained herself. "I will do it all." 

"Tulani!" Whispered one of the women. 

Tulani stood up and stripped off her simple dress. Even Elunara was forced to blink and stare. 

"I want my body back." Tulani turned to the women. "You hear me? They took it away from me, and I want it back! This" She pointed to Elunara's board. "This will help us. This will give us our bodies back."

Elunara coughed. "This is currently my home. If you ladies are more comfortable, the healer has opened a room in her building for this process. She felt that you might feel strange in my home, rather than in a clinical area."

Tulani nodded. "I will do it here. They may wish to do it at your healers."

"Please put your clothes on for now. I will see about getting the four of you a place to stay while you're in town."

Tulani picked up her dress and tugged it over her head. "Forgive me."

Elunara stood up and patted Tulani's arm. "It's fine. I understand about wanting to take your life back."

They walked out of the door and Elunara saw Grogek coming up the path. Three of the women shrank back against the wall, and Tulani half scooted behind Elunara. 

Elunara turned her head. "Grogek is... what you might call my husband."

Tulani's eyes grew huge. "But he is of Iron Horde."

Grogek stopped in front of Elunara. He bent down and brushed his lips on hers. "Who are your odd followers?"

"They came on the caravan, they want portraits."

Grogek raised an eyebrow. "Women?"

Elunara shrugged. "Where are you headed?"

"Renwa asked for my help with strong arming some of the supplies out of the wagons."

"I'll join you." She turned to the women. "Follow us, and we may be able to get you that help." She didn't bother to check. Tulani was at her shoulder, and she knew the others wouldn't want to be left on their own. 

It took a few days, and a few unlucky troops got to sleep outside, but eventually another Barracks was raised. Tulani had become Elunara's constant companion. Even when the other women wanted to stay behind, she was at Elunara's side. Elunara just hadn't had time to do her portrait. 

Once in the barracks room, Tulani stood as Elunara had left her. Elunara worked with Tulani until Tulani said she wanted a seated portrait. Elunara complied, giving her what she wanted. Then Elunara asked for Tulani to remove her dress. Carefully, Tulani put it to the side. 

Elunara narrowed her eyes. "What's that?" She pointed to Tulani's leg. 

"It is a slaver tattoo." Tulani said quietly. 

Elunara nodded. "I'll get to it then." Elunara continued through her method, including running her hands over Tulani's body checking for marks. She was quite upset by what all she had found on the Draenei's body. Only the most seasoned of the army had scars like these. There were burn marks, cuts, and deep, not quite healed bruises. The more Elunara found, the worst she felt for the poor woman. She ignored the desire to kiss them better, and instead marked them in her papers. 

"The man who told me about your portraits..." Tulani began. 

"Hmm." Elunara acknowledged as she examined the tattoo. She ran her fingers over it. "I'm going to have to get you to sit so I can get this one better." She guided Tulani to a chair and had her spread her legs. She knelt there, in between Tulani's legs, examining the intricate tattoo. "Who did this?" She started recreating it in her papers.

"The ogres hold us down and carve these into our flesh. Each one means something, but I don't know what. When the sale is over, another ogre carves the name of the buyer." 

Elunara looked up into Tulani's face. "That's horrible."

"Some of them take "liberties with the merchandise" when they do it." Tulani whispered. 

"I'm so sorry." Elunara almost wept for the woman.

Tulani shook her head. 

Elunara returned to her task. "It might be helpful to catalogue these tattoos. That way we can track who is doing what."

"A noble idea." Tulani shifted. "The man who told me about your work... he said that you have sex with the men you draw." 

"I've been known to." Elunara held up her hand. "I need to touch this to read it better."

"Go ahead." She shivered when Elunara laid her fingers gently on Tulani's thigh. "And your orc does not care?"

"Not a bit." She spread the flesh of the thigh slightly and scribbled the results. "Grogek and I have an odd relationship. We have never had a ceremony, yet we are what you would consider life mates." Elunara continued drawing. "Moving my fingers."

"Have you had sex with many men?"

Elunara placed her thumb and forefinger right at the crease in Tulani's leg. She dragged the skin back a little, pressing her thumb into Tulani's pelvic hair. "I've lost count in my head, but I'm sure I have it written down somewhere." She jotted down the missing bits of tattoo.

Tulani shifted a bit more, her breath becoming ragged. "And women?"

Elunara laughed; her attention on the tattoo. "Usually hate me. They don't understand what I do."

"I meant sex with women." 

Elunara's head snapped up and she looked at Tulani. She didn't realize it at first, but her finger had slipped from its position and was resting on Tulani's hair. Elunara pulled her hand back and blinked a couple of times.

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to do that." Elunara looked at her hand. 

Tulani grimaced. "Well, it's just that... I was enjoying that." She flushed. 

Elunara brushed her fingers on the inside of Tulani's thigh. "Like that?"

Tulani shivered. "Yes, I very much do."

She considered for a moment, before brushing her finger tips down through Tulani's crotch hair. At Tulani's shiver, Elunara turned back to the tattoo and gave it closer examination. She brushed her fingertips against the horrid tattoo, and after ensuring it was properly catalogued, Elunara brushed a kiss on it. Tulani shivered.

Since it was a new experiment, Elunara took her time tracing her finger tips on Tulani's thighs. She made her way through the soft hair. Tulani shivered in response. Going by other skilled examples, using her thumbs, she slid apart that soft center and gently opened Tulani's soft folds. Elunara ran her thumbs up and down, as Tulani gripped the chair and laid her head back. Elunara took a discrete sniff before licking the inner lip. She applied a little more pressure and got a moan and a shiver in response. Slowly, Elunara worked her way around, before reaching the clit and sucking softly. She pressed a finger in, and felt the throbbing insides. A second finger came along, and she was careful not to scrape. She sucked on the clit area as her fingers worked in and out. Tulani arched her back and with one hand, gripped Elunara's hair. 

Getting into it now, Elunara went back to exploring the outer folds before slipping her tongue inside. She looked up at the squirming Draenei. Tulani was so wet, she was making a mess. When at last the woman began to shiver and shake, involuntarily jerking her legs closed, Elunara pulled her fingers out and ran her thumbs gently on those tender folds. She let go and cocked her head at Tulani. 

"That was unexpected." 

Tulani blushed. "I am..." She waved a hand and tried to stay on the chair. "I am equally confused."

Elunara picked up her board and moved it out of the way. 

"I thought..." Tulani stared at the beds. "I thought someday I would have to find a mate and have children, do my duty to the village. I did not think that I would..." She waves a hand, as if searching or words. "find a woman so attractive."

Elunara shrugged. "I'll try anything once, but I've never given women a thought. They're usually quick to hate me."

"Hmm." Tulani stood on shaky legs and walked to Elunara's desk. "You are so talented. You have a large male who protects you, and you do what you please." She picked up a page. "I envy you."

Elunara laughed. "I spent the last thirty years developing that... talent. Grogek and I stand on equal ground. As for the last... That is hard earned too." She got up and went to Tulani. Running a hand down Tulani's back, Elunara sighed. You have been through a lot. I hate that." She found herself kissing a healing wound on Tulani's back. 

"You are kind. I like that." 

"Come on, get dressed. I want to show you something." 

Elunara led the way to the training area, and leaving Tulani on the sidelines, she motioned for Grogek to join her near the weapon rack. With an eyebrow raised, he left the trainee he was currently yelling at. 

"Something the matter?"

"Do your best not to visibly react."

He laughed. "What?"

"I had sex with Tulani. In a manner of speaking." 

Grogek froze. His eyes wide, his mouth open. "Wha?"

"I think I rather enjoyed it." She commented. She shook her head. "I want to do a demonstration." She picked up a staff.

"Hold on, I'm still stuck on the first thing."

Elunara giggled and winked. "Come on, Sugarbear." She twirled the staff. "I have energy to burn."

Grogek cleared the area. At word that Elunara and Grogek were at it again, the town poured out for the show. They fought like maniacs. When they were both panting, covered in cuts and bruises, Elunara tossed down her staff. Grogek growled and tossed his axe down into the ground, where it sank. Elunara charged, and they barehanded brawled for quite awhile. Finally, Elunara was down on one knee, panting and exhausted. Grogek roared and she held up a hand. 

"I concede." 

The crowd went wild. She wiped the sweat off her face. Grogek scooped her up and laughed. There were calls and whistles from the crowd. 

"You think you're so special?" She teased. "Then pick up that axe!" 

Grogek raised an eyebrow. 

"They won't lift it."

He sat her down near the weapon rack, where Ina began to heal her wounds. They watched in amusement as people began to line up in an attempt to lift Grogek's axe. Only the most trained of them were even able to budge it out of the ground. Elunara giggled at the cussing. Grogek only shook his head. Tulani made her way over to Elunara and placed a hand on her shoulder. 

"Are you alright?"

Elunara ignored the look on Grogek's face. "We do this all the time." 

Grogek had a few words with Renwa, before picking Elunara up again. Elunara curled up in his arms and motioned for Tulani to follow. Once in their room, Grogek sat down with Elunara. Tulani sat down in the chair. 

"Do you understand why we do that?" Elunara laid her head against his chest and cuddled with Grogek.

"Not really." Tulani folded her hands in her lap.

"We show them our strength. We show them what we're capable of. Grogek's strength, my ability. We will protect our own. Grogek shows them his compassion, by how he holds back against me." She yawned. "Might have pushed it a bit. I'm just tired. You really are comfy, like a warm blanket." She mumbled. "I love you so much." Before she'd even realized it, she'd dozed off.

Grogek leaned against the wall and wrapped his arms around Elunara.

"And you?" Tulani hazarded. "Why do you love her?"

"She is strong, and yet delicate." Grogek laughed. "Never repeat the delicate part; she'd rip my balls off." 

Tulani giggled. "I envy you both."

He shrugged. "Elunara is a strange one. I suggest you just let things happen as they will." 

"Tell me more about her."



For the Whored Ch. 025



Elunara yawned and stretched. She was still curled up on Grogek. They had paused their conversation. 

"How long was I out?" 

"Well, it's a good thing I cancelled training today." 

"Oh, I'm sorry."

"It's alright." He nuzzled her hair. "Do you remember what you said?"

"I..." She flushed. "I said that out loud, didn't I?" She whispered. 

"That you did." With one hand, he cupped her face, and laid his lips gentle on hers. They devoured each other.

"Oh. I'm sorry." Tulani stood up. "I'll give you privacy."

"I don't mind." Mumbled Elunara.

Grogek laughed. "She likes an audience. I don't care either way." He stared into Elunara's eyes. "I'll probably forget you're over there anyway."

Elunara straightened up and lay against Grogek. They devoured each other's mouths as he ran his hands down her body. He spoke in orcish and she responded in elvish. He took off her shirt, and she pulled off his. Their hands roamed each other's body.

Tulani watched in amazed fascination as they completely ignored her and treated each other so softly and respectfully. Even when Elunara pulled down his pants, and his hard dick came out, he waited until she did as she pleased. She shifted and sucked him, teased him. Enjoyed him. Tulani was envious of the whole dance. When Elunara climbed back up and slid herself on to him, it was not pain, but delight. A slow enjoyment of one another. 

Tulani ached inside, yet somehow just watching them together was a balm to her own wounds. They changed position, Grogek on top, Elunara on the bottom. Even as the pace quickened, Tulani saw none of the same pain and misery from the times she had witnessed before. What had been... The thought froze in her mind, and the memory shut its self down. She returned to the present moment and just watched. She knew she should feel ashamed; watching these two like this, but deep down, she wanted to know that not all of this kind of contact was painful; that some people actually enjoyed having this done to their bodies. 

The pair turned back to speaking in their native tongues, and Tulani quietly slipped out of the door. 

Tulani returned to Elunara's side the next day. 

"Something tells me that you've never told Grogek you love him before."

"It wasn't an emotion I was familiar with." They sat to the top of the hill. Tulani watched over Elunara's side while she drew. 

"Your skill is amazing."

"People keep telling me that." 

"Why do you do it?"

"Because I couldn't do anything else." She shrugged. "For the longest time, drawing was the only thing I enjoyed doing. Then I found men, and I enjoyed doing them too. I eventually combined these two things and came up with a usable skill." 

Tulani nodded. "I will find what I can do."

"Well, what did you do... before?"

"I used to sew." 

Elunara nodded. "We could head to the tailor; see if she needs any help around the shop."

Tulani shifted her feet and Elunara caught the wince.

"Can I see?" She put her board away and lifted one of Tulani's hooves. "When have you last seen to these?"

She shook her head. "I can't remember."

"Come with me." Elunara grabbed her board and dragged Tulani to her barracks. Once Tulani was seated, she went to the Stable master. "Can I borrow some hoof tools?"

He jerked his head to the side, and went back to what he was doing. Elunara gathered the things she needed and headed back to her room. She lifted one of Tulani's hooves and began to clean it out. 

"How do you know how to do this?" Tulani winced as Elunara made her way around some of the damaged areas.

"I worked in the Stormwind stables for a few years before becoming a mission specialist. Night elves have a natural knack with animals. The horses were great practice." She used the file with precision and care. "Stand up for me." Elunara watched her feet and kept half an eye on Tulani's face. "Walk around a bit. Sit back down, give me the other one." She worked for a couple of hours until she was satisfied, and then put some salve on the damaged areas. 

Tulani took a few steps and smiled. "Oh that is much better." 

"I bet your friends could use a good hoofacure."

Tulani nodded.

Elunara grabbed some fresh papers and pencils for her board and handed it to Tulani to carry. Then she grabbed the hoof stuff, and they headed down to the room in the healer's building where the women were staying. After a bit of fast talking, the three agreed to take turns sitting for Elunara's drawing and foot treatments. Since they were still so skittish, Elunara started with sitting portraits. When she gave a woman her picture, she went for the hooves. Elunara expertly tended to the three women's torn up hooves. 

Once they were more comfortable with standing, Elunara started her standard portraits. It was Tulani who convinced the women that, in order to reclaim their bodies as their own, to let Elunara do the healer portraits. Tulani held each woman's hand as Elunara did her through inspection of their bodies. Cataloguing the scars and wounds tore at Elunara, but the thigh tattoos broke her heart. She blessed her training and experience that had her maintaining a professional air. At the end, each woman seemed to release a held breath of air. 

She showed them all the pictures that other people might see, and offered to show them what only the healer need see. None of them wanted to see the nudes. 

"I think they should." Tulani frowned. "It will help them."

Elunara shook her head. "Maybe, maybe not. It could also break them. They have to go at their own pace. You are stronger than them; do not feel bad about that. You cannot force anyone to do anything. You'll do more harm than good."

Tulani considered this. Finally, she nodded. "You know best."

She shrugged. "I know what I know. Best... isn't on the list."

"Can I stay in your room?" Tulani linked their hands.

Elunara blinked. "I don't see why not."

"Are you certain Grogek wouldn't mind?"

Elunara laughed. "I say something and Grogek just smiles and nods. It's the best thing about him."

"Damn. I'd hoped there'd be more to it than that."

Elunara looked up at Grogek grinning down at her. "Oh, well, we are within hearing range of the more timid."

He smirked. "What am I agreeing to now?"

"Tulani wants to live with us." 

He smiled and nodded.

She giggled. "Why are you here?"

"Had to dump a pathetic lump at the healer. Headed back to the training yard now."

"Ah." 

He kissed her forehead. "Later." He moved on past.

"He's kind of terrifying." Tulani whispered.

"Nah. He's a teddy bear."

"A what?"

Elunara froze and then remembered Tulani was native. "A cute, cuddly, plush thing."

"Ah, a stuffed elekk then?"

"Yes. That."

Tulani sighed. "I used to make them for the children."

Elunara tugged on her hand. "Come, let's hit up the tailor."

The tailor shop was filled with fabrics and basic dresses and things. Tulani fondled a bolt of fabric. "Oh, this is the best Draenor has to offer." She breathed and rubbed it against her cheek.

"Oh, so the vendor wasn't just saying that to jack the price." 

Tulani jerked away and put her hands behind her back. 

"Hey now, I didn't mean to scare you."

"Eloise, how've you been?" Elunara smiled. 

Eloise groaned. "Do you need more bed sheets?"

Elunara laughed. "No. Actually, I came by because Tulani here needs some more clothes. She can't keep wearing that same dress everywhere. My budget of course."

"Oh, but you can't." Tulani frowned.

"Already did." She turned back to Eloise. "What you got to show me?"

"Ooo, you don't get clothes from me that often. You leather wearers know nothing about good quality fabrics." 

"Tulani does. She used to be a tailor in her old village. Made stuffed toys for children."

The woman looked the Draenei up and down. "I wouldn't mind a hand around here. Hard to keep up with orders."

"Well... I don't know if..."

Elunara laid a hand on Tulani's shoulder. "Take back your life." She whispered.

Tulani straightened her shoulders. "I can try."

"Good girl." Elunara leaned on the counter. "Let me see your books." 

Eloise pulled out some books and laid them on the counter. "Of course we got older styles, but I've been pulling a few new patterns from around us. You can flip through and see if anything appeals to you or her. I'm going to need some measurements."

Elunara pulled out a piece of paper and slid it over. 

"Always prepared." 

"I like these two." She looked over and saw Tulani discretely fingering the soft material. "Which two do you like?"

Tulani jumped and blushed and looked through the book. She pointed out a couple. 

"Ok, those two." Elunara selected the fabric. She scribbled a little note and pushed it to Eloise. The woman read it, raised an eyebrow and slid the note under the counter. "Also, I'd like to order three sets of these two in this fabric. Send them to the ladies at the Healer house.

"I need their..." She laughed as Elunara handed over the paper. "Of course you would." She turned to Tulani. "You," Tulani jumped and shuffled her feet. "I want to see in here tomorrow. We'll see what your skill is."

"Yes Ma'am."

"One thing..." Elunara looked around and lowered her voice. "If you tell ANYONE I will personally rip out your throat."

Eloise blinked in confusion. "That you gave some ladies dresses?"

Elunara smirked. "No. I want to see what designs you have in wedding dresses."

Eloise let out a noise that was somewhere between a gag and a shriek. She began to flip around like a wild hen as she dragged out books and fabric samples. Elunara took the books and began to flip through. 

"I'm not looking our kind of traditional. I'm looking for something more... here inspired."

Eloise dragged another book out. Elunara had already started ignoring the woman's noises. She flipped through the many books and fondled a few fabrics before she stopped on one. It was heavily furred and reminded her some of the styles she'd seen in Frostfire Ridge. 

"I like this one."

"Oh, that's a lovely design, fresh in from-"

"I want you to design me one." Elunara decided that noise was a happy squeak. "I want it Darnassian inspired, with heavy orc elements."

"When do you want it?" Eloise happily scribbled on a sheet of paper.

"Shortly after I get around to telling Grogek I want to do this. I figure you got a month or so." Elunara shrugged. 

"Oh, it'll be lovely. I'll give you my final sketch for-"

"Keep it to yourself. I trust you on this. Just... Have it ready." Elunara leaned in close. "I'd like a bridesmaid dress for Tulani, less on the orc, heavy on Draenei."

Eloise eyed her. "Something I should know?" 

Elunara shrugged again. "I'll let you know when I know."

"You are a confusing young lady."

"Eloise, I think I'm older than you."

"You slow aging bitch." 

Elunara laughed. "You're not the first."

Outside, Tulani put her hand in Elunara's. "That was very nice of you." 

Elunara shrugged. "Someone has to help them."

"What did she mean by "slow aging"?"

"Night elves used to be immortal. Then a disaster happened that destroyed the tree that gave us our immortality. We tried to fix it, but only made it worse. Now we have relatively short life spans, but it's still double what anyone else might think. I have the body of what your kind or other races might consider to be about twenty, twenty five somewhere in there. I'm well over fifty." 

"Wow."



For the Whored Ch. 026



Elunara saluted. "Hello General."

General Renwa raised an eyebrow at Elunara's and Tulani's linked hands. "How are you?"

She gave a slight shrug. "It's been a nice day."

General Renwa sighed. "I hate asking you this, but please tell me what you did to Captain Jordan. He's actually considering a transfer, and he's been my best man, up until whatever happened."

She sighed. "You said full treatment, so I gave him full treatment. I happen to have decided that maybe he'd calm down if I fucked his brains out, instead of just a standard hand job, or head, or whatever else I employ. Grogek happened to show up, and slipped right on in, if you get my meaning."

Renwa groaned as he put his head in his hands.

"Then Captain Jordan couldn't keep up the longevity, so Grogek pulled me off, and we were having our finishing up, when Jordan jumped back in."

Renwa's eyes grew. "He rejoined?" Renwa shook his head. "Didn't think he had it in him."

"Hey, me either. Great with his hands though. Honey, he's got some skill." Elunara sighed. "But then he had this whole, "you don't care, do you?" and then he took off like a shot. Or like he thought Grogek might lop his dick off. I don't know."

Renwa bit his thumbnail, a habit Elunara thought he'd broken. "I don't know what to do with him."

"Let me talk to him." She sighed. "He needs to confront his demons, so to speak, or he'll never get over it."

"Your suggestion on doing that?" 

"Arrange a meeting, in your office. Neutral territory, with a moderator. If you try to order him to me again, he won't trust you, and run faster."

Renwa nodded. "I'll let you know." He marched on.

"Two men at once?" Tulani sounded horrified.

"It can be quite enjoyable."

She shuddered. "I will have to trust you on that." She frowned. "I... I have experienced it. However, I understand now, after seeing you two, that it is not the same."

Elunara wrapped an arm around Tulani. "I hate that you had to suffer, and I hope that I can make you see. It can be so much more."

"You speak of it so casually. Even to that man, you could be discussing anything in the world."

"Always remember that I am not like anybody else. Everyone still considers it to be a private act, one of secrecy and privacy. I have long ago tossed that mindset aside. It is my art, my craft, the thing that makes me who I am. Just as I have spent thirty years working on my drawings, I have spent just as much time, sampling men and all my body has to offer."

"Can you teach me?" She whispered.

"Any time you want."

Several days later, Elunara was sorting her papers while Tulani visited with her friends. The tailor had finished the project and Tulani wanted to show off her new dresses. Grogek stuck his head in the door. 

"Where is Tulani?"

"Off with her friends."

"Are you busy?"

"Not really, why?" 

He entered the door and pushed it closed. Elunara glanced over. With a grin she walked over and ran her hand on his hard dick. 

"Was thinking about you a little too much, got caught up."

She laughed. "Anyone see you run off?"

He snorted. "I'm better than that." He walked to the bed and sat down. Unbuttoning his pants, he let his dick pop out. 

"Mmm I know exactly what I'm going to do with that." She knelt down as he pushed his pants to his ankles. She ran her tongue up from the bottom. In one hand she cupped his balls, and with her mouth she sucked at the tip before sliding down. Sitting on the bed, he leaned back on one hand as Elunara began to work him and he put a hand on her head. 

There was a soft knock at the door, but neither actually heard it. Tulani walked in and openly stared.

Elunara moved her mouth off of him. "Close the door."

Tulani complied and continue to stand there. Elunara licked the length of him over and over. One hand on his balls, the other on the top of his dick. 

"Come here." Elunara called. 

Tulani dropped the dress in her hand and walked forward. She stared down at the back of Elunara's head as she slipped her mouth up and down. Grogek was careful not to look at Tulani, for he had heard enough. Elunara grabbed Tulani by the wrist and tugged her down. Tulani knelt by Elunara and watched in fascination as the night elf willing gave her mouth to the orc. 

"You want to try?" Elunara's eyes glittered mischievously. "Come, you might have fun."

"Well, maybe..." She stared at the dick in fascination. 

"Just like this." Elunara stuck out her tongue and ran it up the length of him. "Now you try."

Timidly, Tulani stuck out her tongue and flicked it on the dick. Grogek twitched, but kept his hand on Elunara only. 

"Get in there." Elunara grinned. "Come on; tongue all the way out, like this." She demonstrated.

"This?" Tulani followed. 

"Good, now, from the bottom to the top."

"Alright." She leaned forward as low as she dared to go. Following Elunara's instructions she licked the length. 

Grogek groaned, his hand on Elunara's head, the other gripping the bed.

"Here, I want to try something different. Stick your tongue out like this..." She demonstrated. And put it at the base, right here." She pointed. When Tulani did it, Elunara leaned forward and laid her tongue on the back of Tulani's."Together" she mumbled. Together they slid their linked tongues up Grogek's dick. 

"You two are killing me." He muttered.

"Did I do it wrong?" Tulani frowned.

"No, that's the reaction you want." Elunara straightened up and adjusted herself against one of Grogek's thighs. She helped Tulani get undressed and in place. She tugged Tulani forward so their breasts were on both sides of his dick. Testing it out, they discovered the idea didn't work out as well. With a laugh, Elunara straightened up. "Sorry, maybe some other time."

Elunara pulled Tulani in and kissed her. They mated their tongues together and Grogek's hand slid down Elunara's back and when her hips came up, his fingers went inside her. She giggled and shifted, her own hand finding Tulani's wetness. Elunara teased and tickled Tulani until she began to squirm. Elunara released her and grinned. Taking the hand up to her mouth she licked Tulani off of her fingers. The Draenei watched in fascination as Grogek grabbed Elunara and began to devour her mouth. Tulani scooted out of the way. He shifted the night elf up and slipped her down over his dick. Elunara arched her back and dug her nails into Grogek's shoulders. Tulani found herself fascinated by the liquid dripping down. 

Elunara had her head on Grogek's chest. She reached out, and Tulani took her hand. Tulani was pulled up on to the bed, and she sat there, her hand in Elunara's. Elunara let go of her hand and reached out, her fingertips brushing Tulani's cheek. "I'm sorry, was that too soon?"

"I..." She hesitated and bit her lip. She looked back at the crumpled dress on the floor. With a frown she turned back. "No. No, not at all."

Grogek shifted so his back was against the wall. He reached out, and cupping Tulani by the back, gently placed her in his lap with Elunara. Elunara pulled Tulani into her own lap, and they all lay there together. 

Tulani enjoyed her head lying on Elunara's breasts. Grogek was an odd sensation that made her slightly uncomfortable, but that was fine too.

"What's bothering you, sweetie?" Elunara shifted around so that her back was to Grogek, and she tugged Tulani down with her.

Tulani looked up. "They don't want me to visit them anymore."

"What? Why?"

She sighed. "They have heard of you. They say that you are no better than the ogres we were freed from."

Elunara looked up at Grogek who frowned. 

"Who?" He asked.

"I don't know." Tulani sat up. "They received your gift, but you did not sign it. They think it is from Ina." Tulani bit her lip. "When I tried to show them my clothes, they called them Whore's clothes. They..." Tulani's eyes began to well up. "They said I am damaged. That I am no better than a slaver."

Elunara's eyes glinted with rage, but she pulled Tulani into a hug, and kept her face soft. "Shh, don't cry." 

"I'm sorry." She whimpered. "You were kind to them and they..."

"Hush. Hush; don't let that part bother you. I've been called every name under the sun. It gets old, not insulting. I need you to understand that they are broken. They are broken and hurt. They have their own standards, and it's not your fault." She kissed one eye and then the other. "No matter what they say, it's not true."

Tulani curled up in Elunara's lap. Elunara looked up at Grogek who nodded. He shifted to get up.

"No." Tulani grabbed his leg. "Don't go."

Grogek settled back down and ran a hand across Tulani's back. "We will protect you now." He murmured. 

"You both are so good to me. I tried to make them see. I tried to show them." She looked toward the door. "They said I sold myself for good fabric."

Elunara's hand instinctively flexed, and Tulani yelped. "I'm sorry." She kissed Tulani's forehead. "I'm sorry. I'm just so angry at them." She hushed Tulani. "I care not what they have to say about me. But they've hurt you badly, and that makes me angry. I can't stand to see you cry like this. It hurts my heart." 

"I'm sorry." Tulani whimpered.

"Don't apologize again. Do you hear me?" Elunara gave her a little shake. "Listen, I need to speak with Grogek before he heads back to the training yard. Can you give us a minute? We'll be right outside."

Elunara slipped out from behind Tulani and tucked her in the bed. They got dressed and headed outside. When the door closed, she began to pace. "I'm so pissed I can't keep myself straight. How DARE they do that to her!" She grabbed her head. "And then fresh off of that, I drag her in the middle of us. I'm a horrible person."

Grogek put his hands on her shoulders. "No, love. You had no way of knowing that would happen. You're not the horrible one here."

"Stupid bitches."

"Should we be concerned by who told them?"

She shook her head. "They could have been all sunshine and bubbles, and still the whole "oh yeah, she has sex with anyone willing" would put them off."

"What do you plan on doing?"

"Nothing that comes to mind wouldn't make me worse than the slavers." She muttered. "For better or worse, Tulani is mine now. I will protect her."

Grogek took Elunara's hands. "Tulani is ours. We will both protect her."

"Well, this is terrible timing." Elunara muttered.

"What?"

"Grogek, will you marry me?" She fidgeted.

The look on his face made her itch for her paper. "I've been waiting so long." He whispered. He gripped her hands for a moment and then released. "Wait, if this is a petty plan to-"

Elunara put a hand on his mouth. "I ordered the dress a couple of weeks ago. In fact, she might still need time to fix it."

Grogek picked Elunara and twirled her around. "Yes!" He began a spate of orcish. 

A runner jogged up. "General Renwa requests your presence."

"NOW?" Elunara smacked her forehead. "His timing sucks!" With a sigh she waved the runner on. "I'll be there. I'll be there. Just go."

"What?"

"He wants me to talk Jordan into staying." 

"Oh. What?"

"I'll explain later. Go beat the hell out of your troops." She stuck her head in the door. Tulani was sound asleep. Elunara kissed her forehead and tucked a note in Tulani's hand. 

She walked into the General's office on a mission. Captain Jordan turned sheet white and looked to make for the door.

"Stay." Renwa commanded.

"You're seriously going to bail, after that lovely day of magic?" Elunara added mildly.

"Elunara..." Renwa warned as Jordan turned bright red. 

They exchanged a series of looks that not even Jordan could understand. 

Elunara turned back to Jordan. "I arranged this. In neutral territory with an impartial judge."

"Impartial?!" Jordan was outraged.

"I already told you, he doesn't love me anymore. Well, not in the keeping way." She turned to Renwa. "Oh, I should tell you, I finally agreed to marry Grogek."

Renwa's eyebrows shot up. "Congratulations."

"Can you find someone for the ceremony? It's going to take a bit to get set up."

"We'll figure it out."

Elunara turned back to Jordan. "See? Not a flinch." She leaned against the window. "And before you ask, yes I will continue to fuck anyone who peaks my interest. In fact, you're welcome back any time."

"I... I don't know... what you're" Jordan sputtered.

She laughed. "Oh, really? Then why have you been avoiding both of us since then? You haven't checked on the troops when Grogek was there in WEEKS. He's not stupid, he noticed. It's easy enough to avoid me, but to shirk your duties? Come on." She sauntered over. "I'm down right insulted. You have magic fingers, Jordan." She ran a finger down his chest. "You really do." 

Jordan turned to Renwa. "You can't seriously-"

"That's high praise from her. Trust me."

"Says the man with the magic dick." She snickered. "You know..." She strolled to the desk. "I wouldn't mind combining the two sometime."

Renwa laughed. "You're crazy. Can you get back on task?"

"Actually, I'm quite on task." She tapped her fingers on the desk and then leaned against it. "The end result here is that I think you're an idiot." She started ticking off on her fingers. "Grogek walks in, and his reaction is to not get pissed, but to get aroused. He didn't get jealous, he joined in. We made sure you were done, and since I can handle way more, we went for our fun. You could have grabbed your clothes and ran then, but no. You got all excited AGAIN."

Jordan looked back and forth, his face bright red. Renwa was a little too busy staring at Elunara's ass to care what she was saying. 

"So, instead of, again leaving, you decided my tits were just a little too tempting to give up on. Did Grogek get mad then? No! He told you to fuck me." She shook her head. "Does that sound like a man who is jealous and possessive over his girl? Not a bit. You've been avoiding us for dear life, and quite frankly we've let you. We know where you live, stupid. If Grogek was the raging beast, you wouldn't have been able to avoid him. We figured you'd man up and get over it by now." 

"She's got a point. Several in fact." Renwa shrugged. 

"Running away will not help you. In fact, if you pull such a dickless move and run away from us now, I will make sure your humiliation is known far and wide."

"Are you threatening me?" 

"Are you a coward?" Elunara raised an eyebrow. "You thought I was some dumb whore taunting the mind and dick of your favorite person."

Renwa's eyebrows shot up.

"But, no. I'm the one who laid his mind to ease. Think about that, next time you decide to be an ass." She walked to the door. "Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a few bitches to slap."



For the Whored Ch. 027



She wasn't sure she'd actually slap them, but she headed to the healer's building anyway.

"You're on time for once." Ina raised an eyebrow.

"It's that time again?"

Ina shoved a drink at her. With a shrug, she downed the liquid. Handing the cup back, she looked up at the ceiling. "How are the girls holding up?"

Ina lowered her voice. "They have nightmares." 

Elunara frowned. "They like the dresses?"

"So you sent them?"

"Don't tell anyone."

"That was good of you."

Elunara shrugged. "A girl wants to look pretty."

Ina wiped a tear from her eye. 

"Speaking of looking pretty..." Elunara bit her lip. "I'm marrying Grogek."

Ina gasped.

She held up a hand. "Before you launch on me, it doesn't mean I'll stop being me."

Ina grabbed a handkerchief and started blotting at her eyes. "I'm ok with that. You've made me so emotional today."

Elunara shrugged. "I'm going to make it worse. Can you help me plan it?"

Ina clung to Elunara and wept. Elunara awkwardly patted her on the back. "Ohhh, we have so much to DO!" Ina cried. 

Elunara wound up regretting the whole mess. Ina drove her nuts daily with questions and details. She spent less time drawing, and more time trying to get rid of Ina. By time the little woman was finished, Elunara had to admit the woman knew what she was doing. The place looked amazing. The entire town had been decorated in flowers and ribbons. They had set up by the town fountain. Renwa was Grogek's best man, a thought which made her giggle. 

Ina's ability to combine elements from their home world, from her home of Darnassus, and then elements from both Draenor and the Orcs, was remarkable. It should have been a terrible mishmash, but it was actually quite amazing. Grogek had somehow managed to get a ceremonial outfit made. She didn't care how traditional it was, she just knew she really couldn't wait to tear it off. Renwa wore his own traditions from Stormwind. Tulani looked beautiful in her fabulous dress, which combined fabrics and looks of the Alliance and the Draenei. 

The entire town was there, dressed in their best. Elunara wondered who was willing and unwilling. She noticed the snotty looks of the three Draenei women. She gave them a cool look as she passed by. Since Ina was a priest, she qualified as their officiator. A title she snatched for herself as soon as she could. Elunara walked the flowered path and decided the tailor deserved her commission. The wedding gown was magnificent. Elunara was glad Tulani found herself as a tailor's assistant. 

It was a combination of rites and ceremonies. They skimmed through each ceremony tie in they wanted to hit. Finally, after all the words were said and all the silly rituals performed, they stood together, hand in hand. Grogek held his hand out to Renwa, who placed a package in Grogek's hand. 

"It is traditional of my kind, to present you with many tokens of affection through courtship. Nothing we do is traditional... Ever."

There were a few laughs in the crowd.

He held up a fur. "I present to you, a cloak made of the hide of a beast I slew for you." He wrapped the cloak around her shoulders. He held up a dagger. "I present to you a dagger made of the finest steel. It has been engraved with you in mind." He presented the dagger. She took it and eyed the intricate hilt. "The hilt is also made from the bone of the same animal in the cloak." He took her hand. "And, in tradition from your Alliance, a ring." He slipped it on her finger. "May these symbols show you that I will provide for you, and I will protect you; but most importantly, that I love you."

"Kiss the bride already!" Cried someone in the audience. 

"Jerry, I will smack you." Elunara cried back. 

Grogek put his hands on either side of her face. He spoke in orcish, but she knew him well. She spoke in elvish, and a couple of audience members broke into tears. They kissed long and sweet. The crowd went wild. They made their way down the aisle and the champagne was opened. 

Quite frankly, neither gave a damn about the party. It was the break of morning before Tulani snuck in.

"Where have you been?" Elunara eyed her. 

"Ina let me stay with her for the night. We thought you two would appreciate it." 

"Get over here." 

Tulani approached the bed and Elunara grabbed her wrist and tugged her down. She brushed a kiss across the Draenei's lips. "I missed you." She rolled her eyes and let go. "Eventually." She grinned. 

Tulani kissed her forehead. "I always miss you."

"Nothing was said, was it?" Elunara searched her face. 

"About what?" Tulani looked confused. "Oh! Oh. No. They avoided me. Though Jerry was angry they were off somewhere saying rude things about you being allowed to do something so profane." 

Grogek raised his head. "I could do a few more profane things... in about an hour." He flopped his head back. Tulani laughed. 

"You laughed." Elunara murmured. 

Tulani looked surprised. "I... I guess I did."

Elunara leaned up and kissed Tulani's nose. "Good."

Tulani put her hand on the bed and stood up. All at once the bed broke, causing Elunara and Grogek to come crashing down. 

"Well, shit." Elunara sat up and rubbed her back. "We did break the bed!"

Grogek lifted an arm and pointed at the ceiling. "Told you!"

Elunara sighed and climbed out of the wreckage. "I guess I'll head to the lumber mill. Do you need help up?"

"I think I'm going to just lay here until I can feel my legs again."

She snorted. "Wimp." 

It took a few days to get the bed remade in the size they needed, so they just used the floor. In honor of their marriage vows, as modified as they were, she didn't entertain any one for a couple of weeks. The town was torn into two camps. Those who were surprised she took a break, and those who were surprised she hadn't "given up the life" yet. 

It was actually Renwa who knocked on her door next. She eyed him and then motioned him in.

"Where is Tulani?"

"At the tailor, helping with an order."

"Ah."

"What brings you to my room?"

"I can't believe your little "talk" with Jordan actually worked."

"I told you, sweetcakes, I know men."

"That you do." He murmured. He took her hand and looked at the ring. "I can't believe you did it." 

"Weird isn't it?"

"So, how do things change?" 

"They don't. That's the interesting thing." She took her hand back and stared at the ring Grogek had given her. "He told me that the ring isn't even a symbol."

"It's not?" 

She took the ring off and laid it on the desk. "No. He said that he gave me the ring at the ceremony because of how we were doing the ceremony. This is not his symbol to me. That I will know it when he brings it to me." 

"Huh." 

"He's right though." She flicked the little ring. "I've studied orcish culture, and a marriage requires a grand gesture. The head of an enemy perhaps. Who knows what he'll deem appropriate. In fact, he doesn't even like the ring he gave me. Says it's too small and meaningless."

"I'm.... Sorry?"

"I also wonder if he isn't fibbing a little and doesn't want to give me a ring because YOU gave me a ring."

Renwa flinched. "I make him jealous?"

"In a way that doesn't make sense." She shrugged and ran her finger on Renwa's chest. "The thing is, I can give you my body all I want, but I could never give you my heart. Grogek wants my heart to be all his. So, the fact that you tried to give me a ring first... well, that just won't do for him." She pushed Renwa backwards. "The other problem we both have is that for our culture, seeing a wedding ring on a woman is a "hands off" sign." She slipped her hand into the edge of his pants. "And we all know that just won't do for me." She began to unbutton his pants. She tugged them down and knelt in front of him. He was already stiff with anticipation. "You always come prepared." She purred. 

She ran her tongue up his dick. He shuddered and grabbed her ears. 

"Careful with those..." She slipped her hand around his balls. "and I'll be careful with these." She began to suck on Renwa's dick as he shifted his stance. 

"Lu..." He groaned. 

The door was opened and Elunara pulled off and looked up. "I swear you wait out there until I get to the good parts." She chided Grogek.

He grinned. "Maybe I do." 

She purred and turned back to Renwa. "Bad boy, I'm not done with you." She licked him hard again. 

Grogek got down on his knees behind Elunara and pulled his pants down. Tugging her pants down, he slipped deep in her and grabbed her hips with one hand and her breast with the other. As she continued to suck at and play with Renwa, Grogek began thrusting in and out. She squeaked with pleasure as she worked on Renwa. When the man finally came, she let him come in her mouth, but discreetly spit it on the floor. 

Renwa collapsed in a nearby chair. Grogek kept going, lifting Elunara up and into his lap. He thrust her up and down on his dick. He twisted her head back and devoured her mouth. Renwa's eyes went wide with shock. His stuff was still running down her mouth, but Grogek did not care. Renwa began to feel wholly inadequate when compared to the massive orc. 

Elunara eyed him. "Ready for a second go?"

Renwa stood up and walked over, unsure of what she had planned. When she slipped her mouth over him again, he groaned. 

Grogek licked and sucked on Elunara's neck, making her flinch in interesting ways. He liked watching his mate give pleasure to other men. This was something he had not understood about himself. He enjoyed seeing her play. He even more enjoyed that it was only him she drank. The man in front of them was just another toy. She may have let him finish in her mouth, but she'd spat him out, rejected him. It was he who controlled the show, even if it was Elunara's show. He gave her what she wanted, because it pleased him to do so. It wasn't even male arrogance. It was who she was. He hadn't figured out how Tulani fit into this, but that was also her show.

Elunara jerked back this time, and shifted, letting Renwa release himself on her chest. She and Grogek had already finished, and she shifted off of him to sit in the floor. 

She whacked Grogek on the chest. "You timed it. I know you did."

He ran his thumbs across her sensitive nipples. "You told me you wanted that. All I had to do was wait around until Renwa walked in here." He bit her shoulder. "I know you."

"My brain cannot comprehend you two." Renwa had found Elunara's towel collection and borrowed a towel, wiping himself down. "You just don't make any sense."

"Pfft. Any traditional sense, you mean. Animals take multiple mates all the time. Even night elves have been known to take additional lovers. It's you humans and a couple of the other races that said "I'm going to dedicate myself to one person!" Then you spend years of your lives, wondering if that cute little filly three doors down would be just as wild in your bed as your wife used to be before you got bored of each other."

"That's a bit crude."

"Do you have any idea how many men I've fucked that were just bored of their wives?" She shook her head and stood up and stretched. "Too many. Even more like to lament how much their wife USED to enjoy sex, now they don't wanna be bothered." She sighed and held up the little wedding band. "This means about as much to them as it does to us. A restrictive symbol. Sadder still, they were all lousy lays."

She dropped it back on the table. 

Renwa blinked. "I'm... sorry?"

"Bah. It's fine. I don't know why I'm worked up."

Tulani came in the door. She froze, hand on the door handle. 

"Close the door, Tulani. We want to protect a guest's dignity."

Tulani closed the door and avoided looking at the General. "I'm back. I brought some lunch. I know you forget when you're..." She hazarded a glance at the General, but only saw his private parts. "Busy." 

The General flushed and yanked his pants on. "I am truly sorry." He held his hand out. 

Tulani shrank behind Elunara. Elunara shook her head at the General, who dropped his hand. 

"Let's forget it happened." Grogek said as he yanked on his own pants. 

"Let's." Said the General.

Elunara grabbed a towel and cleaned herself up. "Thank you for lunch, sweetie." 

The General politely bowed out. Grogek kissed Elunara, and then turned and dropped a kiss on Tulani's head. "I'll see you both later." 

When the door closed, Tulani looked up. "Were you doing them both?"

"Yes." 

"Huh."



For the Whored Ch. 028



The next day, Renwa caught Elunara as she climbed the hill. "Tulani is so timid, how does she survive you two?"

Elunara shrugged. "I don't know. She just opens up when it's just the two of us. She's a little shy with Grogek, but she's coming around because he's so sweet to her." Elunara got comfy. "I've been trying to teach her to stand up for herself. Especially after the way those little twits treated her." She said with a growl.

"Who?"

"The women that arrived with her. They've called her mean names, and won't speak to her any more. They call her "the whore's toy". Call her worse than a slaver."

"What the hell?" Renwa was outraged. 

"Don't tell her I told you. In fact, don't mention it at all." She sighed. 

"That's horrible."

Elunara popped open her board and pulled out her pencil. 

"So... You told Grogek you wanted to have a threesome with me?"

She smirked. "That's why you're really up here."

"I was just curious." He tried for innocence.

She started her sketching. "Actually, I'm fairly certain I told him I wanted to suck your dick while he fucked me." She paused as if thinking. "Yep, that might have been my exact words."

Renwa's eyes grew wide, and she quickly sketched him out. 

"You're still a strange couple."

"You have no idea."

"Not sure I want to." He shook his head and made his way back down the hill. Captain Jordan was at the training yard, and Renwa met up with him. 

"Sir."

"Hey, keep an eye on Tulani. Tell me if the women that showed up with her are bothering her."

Jordan blinked. "Sir?"

"Just something I heard."

Jerry showed up a couple of days later. She raised her eyebrow as he closed the door. 

"If anyone asks, we were fucking like rabbits."

"In my experience, fucking like a rabbit is a bad thing."

"Well, then we had mind-blowing awesome sex." 

"So you two are still not telling people?"

He shrugged.

"Then next time, invite Louis to come with you. We'll call it an acrobatic threesome." She continued to add detail to her picture. 

"Hey, yeah. I like that one. Maybe we could hang out for awhile. It's hard to find good space."

"Hell," She didn't look up. "Borrow one of the extra beds. Fuck like rabbits... well, like something entertaining." 

"You'd let us?" 

She snorted. "The only reason we kept those was for guests to be fucked on. We don't like contaminating our own bed. Just stay off of Tulani's."

"Hey, what's up with Tulani anyway?"

Elunara flicked her eyes up. "You are not allowed to ask about that relationship."

"No, I mean... I've seen her crying."

Elunara narrowed her eyes. "Those stupid bitches."

He rubbed the back of his head. "So you know about them? I saw them push Tulani in the mud."

Elunara jumped up, her board clattered to the floor.

"I take it she didn't tell you then. I saw her go up to the tailor and change her clothes. I didn't do anything because I wasn't sure WHAT to do. I mean... I heard the state they came in, so..." He trailed off. "I know you guys are close, but you can't go running out there and pound on them."

Elunara flopped back in her chair and frowned. "I hate that you are right." She picked up her board and frowned down at the portrait she was working on for Tulani. "I'm going to have to do something about them..." She tapped on her board. 

"Why are they so mean to her?"

She sighed. "Because of me. They think she has tainted herself with my presence."

"Oh. I can kind of see that. Some people are still stuck in their old ways. They'd rather gossip and shun you, than actually sit and talk to you for five minutes."

She looked up at Jerry ad grinned. "You might have given me the answer." She returned to her sketch. "You've got ten minutes before I rough you up and toss you out the door."

"Cool." He sat in a chair and leaned back.

After she damped her face and tossed Jerry out of her room, she headed over to Ina where the pulled the woman to the side and told her exactly what was going on and her plan for dealing with it. Ina agreed. Elunara's next stop was the tailor's.

"You have me so busy right now!" She exclaimed. "Everyone wants a dress like yours." 

Elunara grinned. "Your work was fantastic."

Eloise preened.

"Where's Tulani?"

"She's delivering an order."

"Are you aware of the abuse she's been dealing with?"

Eloise shrugged. "I know she's come to me crying, asking me not to tell you. She won't give me specifics. I take it you've found it out?"

Elunara went through the same with the tailor who agreed to the plan. Next Elunara hit up every supplier in town she had a good relation with, as well as some of the builders and other laborers she knew of. She hit the training yard next. 

"Come for another spar, love?" Grogek stopped the swing of a sword with one hand and punched the offender with another. 

"I need to talk to you." 

Grogek wandered over and she began to explain. 

"I'd rather decapitate them and present Tulani their horns."

"You know that'd only upset her more."

"Will it work?"

Elunara shrugged. "Bitchy, nasty women are all the same everywhere."

"You had to slit my sister's throat."

"Your sister was a vindictive orc. She died or she never stopped. These are a set of gossipy bitches; they don't do "confrontation".

"Let me know." He kissed her forehead. 

"That guy is really slow on his back swing."

"Ugh, he is." 

On the way back to the room, Elunara spotted the three, moving in a pack, like a herd of animals. She pretended not to see them as they walked past. 

"Not even two weeks and she's already thrown away her vows." Whispered one.

"The ring too, it looks like." Whispered the next.

"If she got knocked up, who would claim it?" Asked the third.

"Maybe the orc will kill her before it gets far enough to find out." The first replied. They giggled amongst themselves. 

Elunara closed her door and groaned. "They're goddamned children."

It had become something of a ritual, that Grogek and Elunara would have sex before bed. Sometimes Tulani watched, occasionally she would participate in small ways. Mostly, after Elunara and Grogek finished, Grogek would lean on the wall with Elunara in his lap and Tulani in hers. When Tulani was sleepy, she would climb in her own bed, while Grogek and Elunara shared the big one. Tulani stayed in arms reach. She had nightmares as well. Usually, Elunara would slip into her bed to calm her, but ever so often, Tulani would climb in theirs. 

Tulani did not like to sleep in the big bed, because when she was frightened in her sleep, Grogek's huge form would always make it worse. Tonight she had watched. And when she was ready, she climbed in Elunara's lap. She wrapped her arms around Elunara's waist and laid her head on Elunara's breasts. Tulani liked her scent, and it always seemed to be strongest after sex. 

Elunara wrapped her arms around Tulani. "Is everything alright, sweetness?"

"It's fine." Tulani mumbled.

"Are you certain? I wouldn't like for you to be sad." She ran her fingers through Tulani's hair. 

"Everything is perfect when I am here."

"Everyone treating you well?"

"Oh, yes. I'm so happy to be working again. A woman said my stitches were top notch."

"I'm glad." Elunara rubbed her back. "No one being mean or rude?"

Tulani froze for a second, but buried her face in between Elunara's breasts. "It doesn't matter. Not here."

"It does matter. If you don't tell me, I can't help you."

A tear streaked down her face. "You help by being. I am ok. I just want to lay here." Tulani whimpered.

"Alright. Alright." Elunara ran her fingers through Tulani's hair and looked up at Grogek. He shrugged. 

She was called into Renwa's office. 

"Our resident white elekks have come to me complaining. They say that people have suddenly turned cold to them."

"Aww. Have they? So mean." Elunara feigned innocence.

"However, I've had Jordan tracking them. He has told me that they go out of their way to hurt Tulani. They corner her, they shove her. Sometimes he is unable to hear what they say, but what he HAS heard makes my skin crawl."

She grit her teeth. "Yet we can do nothing. They are survivors. They've been through hell."

"I know your frustration."

"So I advised the town to do nothing back."

"Everyone?"

"Everyone I could count to my side, so to speak. Tulani may have chosen me as her companion, but she is just as much a victim as they are. They need to remember that. So while they continue their petty assault, I will have them reminded of what it is like to be over looked. To be treated as less. We shun them, as they shun Tulani."

Renwa nodded. "Smart."

She sighed. "Tulani won't talk to me about it."

"Why?"

"I think she is ashamed."

Renwa swore. "Those bitches are worse than slavers." 

She raised an eyebrow. "Well."

He shrugged. "I can't help but like Tulani. She is very sweet. Even when I run into her during the day, she is always polite, even if she is having trouble meeting my eye."

"Don't take it personally. She even has trouble meeting mine." 

"I hardly want to think about what you've done with her."

Elunara laughed. "I know my reputation, but surprisingly little. She is still recovering after all."

He shook his head. "I didn't mean to ask."

"Tulani is a sweetheart, and I will stop this harassment against her."

"I am certain you will; one way or another."

"Grogek offered to decapitate them and present Tulani with their horns." She laughed.

He grimaced. "I can't say much, I think I've given similar quests to adventurers."

"We will be the noble Alliance, who treats our guests as they deserve to be treated."

This time he smirked. "I trust you to handle it."

Elunara was on her way back, when she heard raised voices. Diverting her path, she found herself near a spice trader. 

"What do you mean we have to pay for it?" One of the Draenei women stomped a hoof. "It was free last time."

"Yeah, but you've been getting too many free things. I gotta make a living too. So pay the price, or move on."

"But we're the victims here." Whined another.

The man glared. "I'm not sure you know the meaning to that word. Please just leave."

"We will go to your General about this!" The first snorted.

"Have at it. I think he'll agree with me." 

With a snicker, Elunara made her way over. "Hey, there." The three women stuck up their noses, but kept their mouths shut.

"Oh, hello." The man called out. "Did you come to pick up Tulani's order?"

"Sure." 

He pulled out a small satchel and handed it over. "Tell her I hope she feels better."

"I will. Thank you." A small salute and she wandered off. Near home she opened the bag and discovered it empty. With a laugh she vowed to return the bag tomorrow with "payment".

Renwa noticed Tulani coming out of the tailor shop, but only redirected his path when he spotted the three women. He was glad he got to her first. 

"Hello, Tulani."

She jumped and he frowned. She eyed him for a moment. "Oh, Hello General."

"Just call me Renwa." He took the loaded basket from her. "Let me. I'll walk you home."

"Oh. Um. Thank you." She bowed her head. After a moment, she raised her face. "Sir? You and Elunara are very open with each other."

"We go back a ways. At one time we were lovers. Well, I loved her, she didn't love me."

"Oh."

"I've always known who she was." He shrugged. "I just wasn't enough to keep her. Then I became her commanding officer. She could have risen out of the ranks, she could have been something different, but she loved what she did. She still does. I regret not sending her back into the field."

"Why haven't you?"

"First there was Grogek, and we wanted her to keep him in check. Then... well, there's just no work for her right now. Not her type anyway."

"Ah." Tulani sighed. "I wish I was her."

"Why?"

"Because she's so confident. No one bothers her. Even if they tried." She whispered the last.

"Tulani, you will never be Elunara. No one could. But you can let her teach you confidence. Ask to read her books. You'll have to learn elvish, but trust me."

"But..."

"There are some awful things in there." He nodded. "But she doesn't see it. Once, I saw her forced to read passages from what you might call a diary. It was... disturbing, and yet she didn't flinch. Couldn't figure out why everyone else was so repulsed."

Tulani was gawking up at him and tripped. He caught her and held her up. 

"Read the books, Tulani. Learn about the woman you love."

Tulani blushed and looked away.

He brushed a hand on her hair. "It's ok. She'll let you. A long time ago, she believed her emotions to be dead." He murmured.

Tulani looked up at him, wide eyed. 

"She believed that she was not capable of love, and look at Grogek. She so obviously loves him. She actually says the words. It was hard earned for her to do, but she did. I think she loves you too. She just hasn't figured it out yet." 

Renwa realized he had a hand on Tulani and let her go. He handed her the basket and gently pushed her to the door. 

"Love her, Tulani. She needs it."

In a daze, Tulani walked in. Elunara was at her desk flipping through papers. She looked up. 

"What's all that?"

"Oh, Eloise let me take home some of my work... as long as I promised to... ahh." She blushed and sat the basket down on a table. "Not get any "strange fluids" on it."

Elunara laughed. "Well, just keep it over there and it'll be fine."

"Can you teach me to read your books?"

Elunara blinked. "Sure. In fact, the Draenei back on my world share areas with my people. We quickly learned each other's languages to make things easier. Just tell me when you want to start."

"Alright." Tulani sat down and started her work. After she knocked a couple of things off and lost a needle, Elunara pulled out some paper. 

She turned and started to sketch Tulani, taking measurements and considering Tulani's comfort and tools. Occasionally she would pick up a tool and examine it, before going back to her work.

"What are you doing?" 

"You'll see."

Elunara was walking to the fountain when she saw it happen. She broke into a run. Renwa had to of been nearby, for he reached the fountain at the same time. Tulani was trying to gather her basket and tools as she knelt in the fountain.

"What the hell is WRONG with you assholes?" Elunara screamed. 

The three Draenei women turned around, wide eyed. Renwa was trying to help Tulani gather her things. 

The head woman straightened up. "Wrong with us?" She snorted. "We're not the ones selling ourselves at every turn."

Elunara dropped her board and stepped forward, her hands balled into fists.

"Elunara." Renwa called mildly. "Homicide is frowned upon in the town square. Try not to make a mess."

"Of course HE would help her." Cried the second. "Whoring yourself out to all the best men, aren't you Tulani."

Elunara and Renwa stared at each other before turning back. "What?" she blinked. 

The third one sneered, as if they had just scored a point. "We saw them yesterday. All wrapped up in each other's arms. Right outside your door no less. Now you see what Tulani is."

Elunara snorted. "You guys are idiots." She gestured to Renwa. "I'm the one fucking him." She laughed. 

A crowd was gathering, but Elunara didn't care. Renwa had pulled Tulani out of the fountain

"You're a filthy whore." One of them sneered. 

"IS NOBODY CREATIVE?" Elunara roared in frustration. "Yes, I fuck men. Lots of them. Nearly every day I fuck whoever best appeals to me. Can you not come up with a better word than WHORE? For the love of all stupidity, my goddamned code name is THE WHORE, and I FUCKING PICKED IT OUT! Because I want ALL the men to know, I am OPEN FOR FUCKING BUSINESS!" 

Renwa sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose. "They got her started again."

Tulani openly gawked. "Is this true?"

"Yep." 

"You worthless two-bit hosebeast dipshits need to learn some NEW FUCKING WORDS." 

At some point Grogek had heard Elunara's yelling and came with axe in hand. Now he dropped it to the ground and leaned on it while Elunara ranted. 

"But..." Stammered one. "You're married."

"SO. FUCKING. WHAT?" Elunara thrust a hand out to Grogek. "Do YOU mind if I fuck every guy out here right now?"

His eyebrows rose. "Can I watch?" He called back.

"I don't give one living SHIT what insults you want to fling at me. In fact, I know that's why you've been doing this bullshit behind my back. Tulani hasn't even turned you in; because she's worried I might rip your goddamned heads off and present her with your horns as proof. In fact, that's EXACTLY what Grogek suggested!" 

The women looked ill. 

"But NO! We've tried our fucking damnedest to be nice to you useless little bitches due to your situation. Well, you know what? I DON'T CARE ANY MORE!" She marched up to them and they scrambled back. "You will not only leave Tulani alone, but you assholes will be gone on the next caravan out of here. Do YOU UNDERSTAND?" 

They squeaked and fell back on their butts. 

"In fact, if I see you again, I'll tie you to the undercarriage of the goddamned wagon! OUT OF MY SIGHT!"

They scrambled up and fled in the direction of the healer's building. After a moment, the clapping startled Elunara. Tulani sat on the edge of the fountain, cold, wet and shaking, but she stared at Elunara in awe.

"Would you have done that?" She whispered.

"Which part?" Elunara knelt in front of Tulani and checked her for injuries.

"Given me their horns..."

"There's still time." Elunara raised an eyebrow and gestured towards the building.

Tulani shook her head. 

Grogek looked at Renwa and jerked his head toward the axe. Renwa nodded and didn't move. Grogek scooped Tulani up and Elunara grabbed her basket. They took the poor shivering Draenei back to the barracks. Elunara helped her out of her dress and Grogek dropped a towel on her. 

"I have to get back." He nodded. 

Elunara grabbed him by a fang and kissed him thoroughly. "We'll handle my excess energy later."

He left and Elunara toweled down Tulani.

"You were so brave." Tulani finally said. 

"I was angry. There was nothing to be brave about."

Tulani began to cry and Elunara wrapped her arms around her. 

"I wish you had told me what was going on."

Tulani wept. "I didn't want you to hurt them. I didn't want you to be angry. I... I didn't want you to know."

Elunara shook her head. "Sweetie, I could have taught you how to stand up for yourself. I don't go to violence easily. Now I hurt because I couldn't protect you."

"I'm sorry." 

"Just tell me next time."

Tulani nodded.

"I don't care what they tried to make you think. You are not a whore." Elunara held her out. "I'm the whore. I quite enjoy it, actually."

Tulani gave a watery laugh. "Who am I?" She whispered.

"You are Tulani and you are in a very special position of figuring out who you are. What you want to be. I will help you be that. Grogek and I will take care of you." At Tulani's sniffle, she hugged her again. "And if you want to learn how to take care of yourself, I can help you do that too."

Tulani breathed in the smell of Elunara and sighed. "Right now, I just want to stay like this."

"Hold on." Elunara got up and pulled Tulani to the big bed. She leaned against the wall and pulled Tulani into her lap. 

A couple of hours later, Grogek came in and found Tulani wrapped up with Elunara, who was drawing on her pad. 

"How is she?"

"Better, but the damage is done."

He snorted. "You were kind to them in my opinion."

She snorted back. "By orc standards."

He grinned. Elunara shifted so that he could climb in bed. 

"That's beautiful." He ran a finger on the drawing. 

"Good. I've been working on it for weeks now."




For the Whored Ch. 028



"You love her, don't you?" He got comfortable and wrapped his arms around her.

Elunara shrugged.

He nibbled on her shoulder. "I know you." He whispered. "I see you."

"I know." She sighed. "I'm still working through it."

Tulani smiled in her sleep.



For the Whored Ch. 029



Elunara woke up to Tulani tangled around her and Grogek up and shaving. She stretched. 

"Did she stay the whole night?"

"Looks like it. I was trying to let you two sleep."

Elunara ran her fingers through Tulani's hair. "She needed it."

Tulani shifted and mumbled.

"What?"

"What's a hosebeast?" she blearily asked.

Elunara shrugged. "No idea."

Tulani giggled. 

There was a knock at the door, and Elunara slipped out of bed and opened it. 

"Where ya want it?" The man jerked a thumb at the desk.

"Over here." Elunara let him in and shoved the table out of the way. 

"What is it?" Tulani had the sheets tugged up to her neck. Elunara raised an eyebrow, since she knew Tulani was wearing a dress. 

The man delivering the table had gotten used to Elunara answering the door naked, so was surprised she actually had clothes on this time. He said nothing as he got it in the place Elunara wanted. He held out a clipboard with a sheet of paper. He nodded and eyed the Draenei in Elunara's bed. He'd seen Tulani around, but he didn't believe the rumors, until now. He quietly escaped.

Tulani climbed out of bed and slowly approached the new desk. 

"It's a sewing desk for you. I specifically designed to hold all your little tools and things. It even has a nice chair and a place to prop your feet."

"Oh, I love it." She breathed as she sat down at the little desk. She ran her hands along the top of it, Inspected the little cubbies and propped her feet on the bottom. With a giggle, she bounced up and wrapped her arms around Elunara's neck. She kissed her soundly on the mouth. "This is the best gift!" she exclaimed. She reached for her basket and frowned. 

"What's the matter?"

"I forgot to air out the fabrics after they got wet."

"Come on; let's see if we can fix this."

Another knock on the door had Elunara looking at Grogek. He shrugged and opened the door. 

"It's just Renwa." He snorted and went back to what he was doing.

"Well, I feel dismissed."

Elunara laughed as she helped Tulani hang fabrics. "What brings you here, sugar?"

"I haven't decided if I'm annoyed with you yet."

"Hey, those-"

He cut her off with a shake of his head. "Caravan arrived, and it is PACKED with people that want their portrait done. I have no idea where I am to put all these. Most of them are Draenei survivors of some sort or another."

She gawked. 

"I'll be able to ship out a few more troops, and a few guests who have decided to not stay, but I'm just at a loss."

"Shit." 

"I'm having them set up in the south orchard." Renwa eyed Elunara. "You can have your spot back after they vacate."

Grogek snorted.

"Spot back for what?" Tulani looked at Elunara.

"Demonstration purposes." Grogek stifled a laugh. "Well, let's go see what we have."

Elunara frowned down at the group of people camping in the orchard. She popped open her board and began some preliminary sketches.

"This is going to make security difficult." Commented Grogek.

"Don't I know it." Muttered Renwa.

Tulani seemed to be looking among the group of Draenei. She gave a small gasp and started running. "Delari!" She cried. 

A male Draenei stood up and looked around. He threw his arms wide. "Tulani! You're safe!"

Elunara and Grogek exchanged a look, and she began to scribble as fast as she could to capture the moment. 

Tulani and the new Draenei embraced. They began to speak in rapid Draenic. Even Elunara's trained ear lost part of the conversation. Tulani dragged the man along, speaking rapidly. The man had a confused look on his face and he seemed to be asking for clarification. They stopped in front of Elunara. 

"You are the one who saved my sister?"

"I did not save her from wherever she was. But, I protect her now."

He spoke to Tulani who nodded. 

"Tulani says you save her. That means you are family." He hugged Elunara. "I have my sister back. This day is good. Come, you must tell me everything."

"Elunara has to stay up here. She is working. But I will sit with you and tell you everything." Tulani led the man away. 

"Interesting." Was all Grogek said. 

"He better be kind to her, once he knows "everything"."

Grogek patted her shoulder and left. 

Elunara worked even as she kept an eye on Tulani. The longer Tulani talked the more relaxed and jovial she became, so Elunara focused more on her work. It was slightly odd being on this side of the orchard, watching the crowd, instead of being in the center with a crowd watching. 

"Are you the artist?"

Elunara pointed to her board. 

The man nodded. "May I be drawn now?"

"Public or private?"

He shuffled his hooves in the ground. "Private."

She stood and motioned for him to follow. As she led the way to the barracks room, she explained her process. 

"I have heard... fascinating things about the "full treatment"?" 

She grinned. "Right this way, honeypot."

He was very patient as she worked her way up to the final pictures. He shivered under her detailed inspection.

"Your hands are amazing." He whispered. 

"And this is just my clinical mode." She considered her drawing very carefully ad she lifted his balls to look at the inside of his thighs. She added a few more details before pushing the board away. 

It turned out that he wasn't all that interested in her mouth, hands were his fetish. She played with him for quite awhile before giving in to his agony and letting him cum on the floor. Once she had him clothed and out the door, she added a little more detail to her papers. There was a knock on the door, and she opened it to a nervous looking Draenai. 

"I was... told to ask for full treatment?"

She grinned and pulled him in the door. By time Grogek got in, she was singing and dancing around the room. He raised his eyebrows and closed the door. She stopped and taking one look at him, took a running flying leap at him.

"It has been entirely too long since I've had four men in one day. Want to be number five?"

"Always."

With a little growl, she yanked his shirt up and had his pants off before he could react. She ran her mouth up and down his chest, enjoying the full flavor of him. One hand went for his dick; the other dragged nails down his back. He groaned and grabbed the wall. Swiftly, she stooped down and slipped her mouth on his dick, sucking him hard and fast. She was needy and greedy. He couldn't keep up with her mind, as she was sucking on him one moment, and licking his arm the next. She grabbed him by a fang and half dragged him to the bed. She shoved him backward and climbed on to his stomach. He could feel her wetness sliding on his stomach as she went mad on his mouth. 

He grabbed her by the hips and slid her downward. She nipped at his lips. "Fingers." She whispered.

He shifted one hand and buried a finger in her. She purred and shifted her hips. He slipped a second in and she started rocking against his hand. 

"Ahh, I love your fingers. They know where to reach." She adjusted again and yanked his hand up to her mouth. She licked the wetness off of then and sucked on his fingers. By time she slipped herself over his dick, he was half mad for her. 

He groaned and gripped her hips, shoving her down hard over him. She rocked and arched and gave him all he could take. Even after he exploded, she scooted herself up his body and stuck her breasts in his face. He sucked on them, licked them and enjoyed her as he slipped his fingers into her again. 

That's how they were when Tulani opened the door. Neither bothered to look over, they were used to Tulani coming and going. 

It was the male voice that had them hesitating. "Oh my." 

"This is my Elunara and her husband, Commander Grogek. They do this a lot." Tulani was unfazed. She paused and frowned. "I am sorry. This was rude?"

Elunara laughed. "Only if he thinks it is. If you don't mind, I'm finishing what I set out to do." 

Delari watched in fascination as the orc and the woman went back to ignoring them. Tulani discreetly closed the door. "They... do this a lot? While... you're there?" Delari stared at the closed door. 

Tulani shrugged, her back to the building. "I guess I've gotten used to it. Elunara is not afraid to use her body to her enjoyment. She also once told me that she likes an audience. I find the process fascinating."

"After what happened to you?"

"Especially because of what happened to me. I enjoy seeing someone who enjoys what her body can do."

"She is the one I have heard about then? The artist who... gives special treatments to men?"

"Yes."

"I never expected to find you again, yet I find you in the strangest place of all. But, you said he is her husband? Does he not get angry?"

"I don't understand it completely myself... But he enjoys that she enjoys herself? Does that make sense? He LOVES her for it."

"Very strange." He was silent for a time. "Where do you fit in this?"

"I love her."

"Does she care for you?"

"I think in her own strange way, she loves me too." Tulani looked up at the sky. "She gave me myself back. She gave me a life, she gave me a home. I have stepped into their lives, and they have accepted me." She looked at her brother. "You know I never preferred the men. Though I would have done my duty..."

"This I am aware."

She stared back at the sky. "She's the most beautiful woman I have ever met. She is strong, and very sweet. She has earned the respect she carries, and is not afraid to rip someone's throat out if they piss her off." Tulani laughed.

He gasped at his sister. "That is... concerning." He rubbed his own throat.

"If you plan on getting a treatment from her, she will be amazing. Trust me." Tulani smiled. 

"You... You've had this treatment." 

"Many times." Tulani winked. 

"What about her husband?"

"Oh, he only joins for special requests."

The door was yanked open. "Are you going stand out there all night?"

Delari felt a little relieved that the orc was wearing pants. He followed his sister in and felt a little intimidated by the two of them. 

"Can my brother stay the night?"

"Just for tonight, any longer and we have to have a few discussions. He can have one of the spare beds."

"I appreciate you allowing me a warm bed, instead of another night in the woods." Delari added politely.

Elunara waved her hand. "As long as you are nice to our Tulani, I will stay nice to you."

"Why would I wrong my own sister?"

"You haven't seen them yet, but the women I arrived with, turned hateful." Tulani frowned. 

"They better be gone with that wagon in the morning." Elunara snarled. 

"It does my heart good to hear Tulani defended so." Delari sighed. "You were picked on back home too."

"Delari!" Tulani hissed.

"She is too kind for her own good." He nodded.

Late that night, Delari lay and examine the scene before him. The giant Orc curled up with the Night Elf under his arm like a stuffed toy. Tulani in the small bed beside them. Her hand reached up and linked with the Night Elf woman. Delari was endlessly grateful his little sister had been delivered from the hands of demons, into the arms of angels.

In the early morning hours, he heard his sister's whimpers. He started to climb out of bed, but the Night Elf woman was awake, and she slid down into Tulani's bed and began to whisper to her. Tulani turned and buried her face in the woman's chest. She continued to whisper and comfort until Tulani was peaceful. Then she became still. Delari nodded to himself and turned over. 

In the morning he was fascinated by what he saw. Grogek was up first, getting dressed, then Elunara slipped out of bed and began to change. Neither paid him any attention as he sat on his bed. Tulani was last up, looking tired. Elunara kissed her forehead and asked her how she slept. There was a series of exchanged kisses, bodily touches and other intimate moments. Grogek was kind and gentle to Tulani, but grabby and rough with Elunara, who returned the groping. 

Grogek headed out and Tulani gathered her basket. 

She turned to Delari. "Forgive me; I have to be at the tailor's early this morning to turn in my share of work. You may follow me, or find your own way today."

"I shall be fine." 

Tulani kissed his cheek and the rushed out. Elunara had either forgotten him or dismissed him. She was digging through her desk. She pulled out a large piece of paper and laid it on the strange little board he'd seen her with. He looked over his shoulder and was fascinated by what he saw.

"What is that?"

Elunara jerked up, her fist catching him in the jaw. "Shit. Sorry, don't scare me like that." She knelt down and looked at him. She ran her fingers on his jaw. "Ok, I didn't break it."

"Ah, it feels like you did."

"Sorry." She frowned. "I thought you left with Tulani."

He stood up, still rubbing his jaw. "That's beautiful, what is it?"

"It's a present for Tulani. Don't tell her about it, please?"

"I will not."

"When is her birthday? I've asked, but she gets all quiet."

He counted days in in his head. "You've missed it by a couple of months. She was taken on her birthday last year." He added quietly.

"Slavers." Elunara growled. 

"I'd avenge her myself, if I knew where to find them."

"They're long dead. She was rescued by adventurers, they don't leave enemies alive."

"I am glad."

"Hey!" Elunara smiled. "Let's give her a new birthday." 

"What?"

"Yeah, it's a common enough practice. Help me give her a new birthday party."

"I will do my best!"

"I need Ina. That woman can plan a party like nobody's business."

It took a bit of effort, but they managed to keep the party a secret for a couple of days while they got the fountain area set up. Eloise had several "rush orders" suddenly appear and kept Tulani busy enough. Even Elunara was a little surprised at how many people showed up from town. The Caravan hadn't left yet due to a broken axle, but there was enough food and drink to keep everyone supplied. Elunara sat on the fountain with her board as Tulani came down the hill. 

Tulani sat down her basket and sighed. "My fingers hurt."

Elunara took her hands and began to massage the sore joints. "Tulani, I wanted to tell you something."

Tulani laid her head on Elunara's shoulder. "Hmm?"

"Happy New Birthday."

Tulani jerked upright. "What?" 

"See, I was told how your last couple of birthdays were ruined, so I decided that you needed a new one. A special one. I could try and quote you from some culture or another about the ritual of a new birthday, but I'm not going to bother." She continued to rub Tulani's hands. "I've been working to give you your life back, to let you be your own person. So now, I'm giving you a new birthday. One that won't hurt your heart to think about." Elunara brushed a kiss on Tulani's lips. "Happy New Birthday, Sweetheart."

At once the candles lit, and the decorations unfurled. 

"Let's start this new birthday off right." She stood and tugged Tulani up. 

"HAPPY NEW BIRTHDAY!" The crowd yelled. Guests came out of alleyways; a cake was brought out, food and drink deposited on tables that appeared.

"A good chunk of town went into this actually" Elunara grinned. 

Grogek sauntered over and handed Tulani a bouquet of flowers. He kissed her on the forehead. "Happy New Birthday." 

"Oh my." Tulani looked around with tears in her eyes. "Thank you so much."

The party went on for awhile, as each person took a turn presenting a gift of some sort. Even the new comers had worked together to do a little song and dance routine. 

Elunara picked up her board. "I saved mine for last." She opened up the board and handed the over sized sheet of paper to Tulani. She took it delicately and held it up. On the paper was a series of poses. 

"What?"

"It's you." Elunara whispered. "It's a study of you. In each of the poses, I tried to capture the inner you. Your innocence, your warmth." She pointed to the center one. "Your beauty and your strength. I kept some of the scars, because scars are just the world's view of the things that shape you. I left off the tattoo, because that is no longer you. It needs to mean nothing to you."

Elunara collapsed her hands together. "Do you like it?"

Tears streamed down Tulani's face. "It's the most beautiful thing I have ever seen."

"Dammit. I didn't mean to make you cry." Elunara ran her thumb on Tulani's cheek. 

Tulani threw herself on Elunara and wept.



For the Whored Ch. 030



It was a couple of weeks later that Elunara felt like hell. She'd slept in so late that Grogek and Tulani had already gone. The drawing had gone over Tulani's sewing desk. Elunara tried to get some work done but she couldn't focus. When her stomach settled down, she was going to have a discussion with the cook about the freshness of that seafood. 

She wandered into the Healing building and flopped down. Ina did her usual bird chirpery. 

"Just give me something for this nausea and I'll be on my way.

"I have to find the source of it first. So button up and deal with it. 

Grogek heard it. It was on the edge of his hearing, but a man knew when his mate screamed. He bolted out and grabbed his axe on the way. He made his way through town, tracking that horrible screaming. The longer it went on, the more afraid he was. He broke the healer's door with his axe held up, but only found Ina plugging her ears and rolling her eyes. Grogek dropped the axe to the ground.

"Can you shut her up?" Ina mouthed.

Grogek placed his hands on either side of Elunara's face and used his thumbs to force her mouth shut. She had tears coming out of her eyes as she stared at the ceiling in stunned horror.

"What is the matter with her?"

Ina rubbed her ears. "By Mauradin's beard, I only told her she was pregnant."

"She's what?" He whispered.

"Don't you start screaming to!" Ina jabbed her finger at him. 

"I'm going to be a father?"

Ina swore she heard a squeak, but she'd take it to her grave.

Grogek scooped Elunara and twirled around with him. "I'm going to be a father!" He roared. 

"Put me down you moron, before I throw up on you."

He sat her carefully into the chair. 

The door opened and Tulani looked around. "I could have sworn I heard screaming."

Elunara was currently doubled over, staring at the ground, so her response was muffled. "That would be me."

Tulani knelt down and rubbed her hand on Elunara's back. "Whatever is the matter?"

"She's pregnant." Ina propped her hands on her hips. "I told her to come more often for that drink, but noooo don't listen to the dwarf." Ina froze and looked up. Grogek was practically beaming with joy. "What if... it's not..." She hazarded. 

He gave her a hard look. "It is hers so it is mine. No arguments."

Ina held up her hands for peace. "Not another word."

"I hate you all." Elunara muttered. "Can't you just give me the damned drink anyway?"

The second thing Ina would take to her grave; was the obvious pout on Grogek's face. The door broke open and Renwa rushed in. 

"I heard there was a commotion. Several people told me Grogek came this way ready to kill." 

"Elunara's pregnant, and she's not taking it well." Ina smirked.

"I hate every last fucking one of you." She whimpered. "Ina! For the love of the holy light," Elunara looked up. "The nausea!"

"Oh! Shoot. Sorry." Ina began mixing things. "If you hadn't screamed like a ninny I wouldn't have forgotten it."

"Ahhh..." Renwa backed up. "I will leave this in your capable hands." He slammed the door behind him.

"Coward." She muttered. 

Tulani pulled back Elunara's hair. "There, there, it's not all that bad."

"Why do you not wish I have my child?"

Ina knew that was a pout now. She quietly mixed the correct remedy and slipped it to Elunara. 

Elunara started to chug, but choked and tried sipping instead. "I don't want to have any damned body's kid. Me and kids? Not a chance. Most people won't even let their kids be near me. My profession? No. My body, ruined. No. No. No." She flopped back and stared at the ceiling. "I can't take care of a kid; I have nothing to offer one. It's just a bad idea all around."

"I can help you." Tulani rubbed Elunara's leg and arm. "I used to take care of children all the time. That's why I made them stuffed animals. I love babies." She smiled, but something was wrong with her eyes. "I'll never have one." She whispered.

"Oh, don't do that." Elunara muttered. She reached out and touched Tulani's cheek. 

"I have wished for a child for some time." Grogek added quietly. "It's just not been a discussion I felt I could have." He knelt in front of her. "The prejudices we face, the physical differences. I wasn't even sure it was possible." He laid a gentle hand on her belly. "I want this."

Elunara groaned. "I hate you all so much right now." She closed her eyes. She took several relieved breaths as the nausea abated. She looked up. "Gods, you're a couple of puppies. Fine. Whatever. I'll suffer this intrusion, but I don't have to be happy about it." She laid her head back and her arm over her forehead.

She was pretty sure, by the end of the day, that there wasn't a single soul in town who didn't know. She hid in her room. She knew it was cowardly, but she had an excuse. She didn't want to puke on an innocent bystander.

She laid there and stared at the ceiling. Was she seriously going through with this? They'd convinced her so easily. She'd never been convinced to do something she didn't already want to. She laughed at that thought. She knew what they all thought though. Is it Grogek's? She considered. The past few months... depending on Ina's guess, give or take a week or three. 

Shit. Well, eight cocks in her in the past couple of months that weren't Grogek. Well, race would out, she guessed. It occurred to her how damned large Grogek was in comparison to her own body. She whimpered. Human might be ok. Draenei hooves? She prayed they were soft on infants. Night Elf would be ok. After all, she was one. She must be built to birth that. Would a panda tickle? She considered that one and began to giggle.

"At least you are in a better mood."

She looked over at Grogek who had brought her flowers. Oh dear Elune, the man had brought her flowers.

"Oh no, I'm still quite pissed off. I think Ina drugged me." She eyed the cup in her hand. 

Grogek laid a soft hand on her belly. "I want to be a father."

Elunara narrowed her eyes. "If you start treating me like I'm fragile now, we're going to have a long and pissed off 6 or 7 months."

"I am sorry." He rubbed her stomach. "I just never knew how much I wanted this until now."

She scoffed. "I never knew how much I didn't. I'm having legendary level freak outs right now."

"You do this for me?"

"I don't know why I do anything I do somedays. 

Grogek stared. "I've never heard you talk like that."

"It took me SO long to even understand love, to find love. I still struggle to understand it. How am I to give love to a creature I never intended to exist? Why did I look at the two of you and not want to disappoint either of you, over something that disappoints me?"

He kissed her forehead. "It is ultimately your decision."

"So you claim." She pouted

"You're in quite the mood."

"I don't like being sick. It makes me feel vulnerable. Not a situation I've been in all that often. On top of that, I finally started having visitors again. This'll just run them all off." 

"We'll see what we can do about that."

It didn't matter anyway. Elunara spent the next several weeks laying in bed. No matter what Ina tried, she just couldn't shake off the nausea. It felt completely strange to have townsfolk showing up to drop off gifts, and the local women were showing up to help Elunara function. Grogek would often carry her up to her tree so that she could lean and draw. Tulani never left her side, and Eloise took to bringing Tulani her work for the day. Elunara felt as foolish as she felt grateful. 

After a particularly violent vomiting episode, Ina was called to the room. 

"What's wrong with her?" Grogek frowned. 

Ine ran her hands on Elunara's body and sighed. "He's growing so fast, her body can't keep up."

"He?" Grogek whispered. "I'm having a son?"

"If he's growing too fast, what does that mean for me?" Elunara whimpered.

"I'm not certain." She ran her hands on Elunara's belly. "But he's going to be a big one for sure."

"I'm going to have a son?" He shook the little woman. 

"No doubt about that one. I'm always right." She nodded.

Grogek picked her up and spun about. 

"Put me down before I barf on ye." Ina snarled.

"If he gets any happier, I might have to smother him in his sleep." Elunara muttered.

Tulani rinsed her rag and smiled. "Men and their sons." She sighed as she washed Elunara's face.

Little by little the nausea abated, but she still spent more time in her room than she cared for. Even worse, she still wasn't up to her usual interest in men. Her body hated her, and quite frankly the sentiment was mutual. 

A knock on the door had her trying to get out of bed, but Tulani just pushed her back down. When Tulani could overpower here, she knew her life was over. The last time she had wanted to cry like this, she was a child. 

A very timid looking man walked in. "Are you the artist?"

"I am." She frowned down at her board. She'd spent a lot of time drawing Tulani lately.

"Well, this might sound... uhh rude of me." HE fiddled his hands.

"Spit it out."

"Well, I always fancied one of your drawings, but... uhhh I was a little afraid of you..." His eyes shifted back and forth. "Jumping me?" He flushed. "I just want my picture done," He rushed on. "But I didn't wanna have to do... that."

Elunara rolled her eyes. "I am not some demon of sex. I only select willing partners. And sugar, you ain't it."

He gave her a lopsided grin. "I heard how you was sick and I thought, maybe it'd be a little safer to come over now. But... I didn't want to insult you..." He looked bashful.

"First of all, it is difficult for anyone to come up with a creative enough insult to actually work on me. Second, Tulani get the chair. I am desperate to do anything but sit here."

Next thing she knew, she had more visitors than she could have expected. Apparently it was a common feeling that since she was incapacitated, she was safer. She didn't know how to feel about that, but it was better than nothing. By time she was on her feet again, she'd gotten so large that it was difficult to move. She pouted as Grogek carried her up the hill.

"This is lame." 

"You're a terrible patient, you know that?" Ina snorted. "I want a man to carry me around every now and then."

Grogek reached down and scooped the little woman up and sat her on his shoulder.

"Not what I meant..." She looked around appraisingly. "Could get used to this, though." 

"You can have it." Muttered Elunara. "I can hear you giggling Tulani."

Grogek deposited Ina on the ground and then carefully sat Elunara down under the tree. He kissed her and then kissed her belly. "You know where I'll be." He headed down the hill.

Ina propped her hands on her hips. "You wouldn't know it from lookin' at him, but there goes the gentlest man I've ever met." 

"Freaky isn't it?" Elunara laughed. "He's become accustomed to our life fairly quickly, and now everyone looks up to him. It's so weird." She rubbed her enormous belly. "I still can't believe I agreed to this." She muttered. 

Ina ran her hands over Elunara's belly. "He's a monster alright. I fear how big he'll get before it's through."

Tulani sat next to Elunara and laid a cheek on her belly. "You've made him happy. Don't forget that."

"I made him happy before I turned into a balloon." She muttered.

Ina laughed. "Alright, I'm headed out. Don't do anything irrational." 

"What, you mean wobble left instead of right?" Elunara demonstrated. "I can't move like this."

"Part of that has to do with being stuck in bed. You couldn't walk around and get your body used to the weight as it happened." Ina pushed a strand of hair out of Elunara's face. "You'll be fine, dear. Not too much longer to go."

As Ina walked off, Elunara propped her board on her belly. "Finally, work." 

Tulani laughed and leaned against Elunara. After awhile, Elunara flinched.

"Something wrong?" 

"Just a pull, it'll be fine."

"Hmm." 

She wrapped an arm around Tulani's waist and kissed a horn. "I'm sorry; I haven't spent any time with you either."

"It's alright." Tulani cuddled up. "You haven't felt well."

Elunara tugged Tulani's chin up and kissed her. "Yes, but-" She winced again and grabbed her belly. 

Tulani was instantly concerned. She laid a hand on Elunara's belly and felt the ripple. "That was no kick."

She leaned back against the tree. "That was awful."

"I'll get Ina."

"No." She panted. "No." She said more firmly. "I'm ok. That was just weird."

Tulani ran her hands on Elunara's belly and frowned. "I think I should get Ina."

"No!" She shook her head. "Don't worry about it. It's nothing." She stubbornly grabbed her board and propped it on her belly. She glared down at the activity below and returned to her drawing. The next ripple caused her to scrape her pencil across the page. 

Tulani was up like a shot, running down the hill. Elunara swore as her vision blurred. Another pain ripped across her and she reached out, for what, she didn't even know. She was pouring sweat and everything hurt. Her hips and legs began to throb. She was next aware of being held by Grogek as he raced through town. He shouldered opened the healer's door and laid her on the cot. 

"I'll find Ina." Tulani shot out the door.

"Come on sweetheart, I'll be ok." 

She clung to him as the pain continued. "Make it stop." She whimpered. 

Ina rushed in and laid her hands on Elunara's belly. "The baby is coming NOW. He's not waiting another minute." 

"Get it out." She whimpered. She was unaware of what Ina was trying to do, but she knew everything hurt. 

Ina appeared in her field of vision. "I have to tell you, he's huge. Most women experience a widening of the hips, in extreme cases, which this would be..." Ina hesitated. "There might be a break."

"A break?" She whimpered. "Like a bone?"

"Like your pelvis. Its normal, it'll heal. I'll make sure it heals right."

"Can't you do anything else?" Grogek asked in a panic. "Help her!"

"Look, I'm doing what I can given the circu- WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" Ina screamed.

Elunara had summoned her hidden dagger. She ripped it across the bottom of her stomach. She cut open her own belly. Ina grabbed the dagger. 

"You're out of your mind!"

Elunara blacked out.

Grogek's hands hovered over Elunara. "No!" He scooped Elunara's head up. "Don't die." He whimpered.

Tulani put her hand on Elunara's head. "She's just out. Not dead."

Ina sighed. "Might as well finish what she started." Ina put her hands on Elunara's belly and inspected the wound. "Damn, she almost did it herself." She held up the dagger and lined it up.

"What are you doing?" 

"This isn't the most advisable method, because it's the most dangerous, but we're going to cut the baby out. Elunara got us started, and if I don't finish this way, she'll split on her own and then we're all in trouble."

Tears streamed down his face. "Just save her."

"That's what I'm doin." Ina made the cuts and did her job. She handed Grogek the baby and cut the cord with Elunara's dagger. "Hold this." 

Grogek held the small infant. "My son." He whispered.

"Tulani! Help me." Ina commanded. 

"Me?"

"I need your power to help me seal this."

"But I..."

"Are a priest. I know you are. I've felt it. You've felt her. Now help me!"

It took them quite a bit of time and effort, but with Ina's guidance they managed to seal up both parts of her body. 

Tulani stared at her hands. "I didn't know I could do that."

"I knew it." Ina took the child from Grogek. "You could sense things in her that another person could not. I've felt the light in you." She began to clean the child. 

He had been unusually quiet and it made her nervous. He seemed to be sleeping. He was unhappy when she woke him, and began to scream. Ina stared at the single large fang in the child's mouth.

"By the light." Tulani whispered.

"He's..."

"What? What's wrong?" Grogek loomed over both of them, emotions rippling across his face. 

Ina rubbed a finger on the fang. "This is highly unusual."

He frowned at the child. "I do not understand. Children don't get their first set of fangs until they're months older." He ran a finger over the fang. The child began to suck on his finger. "I don't have much experience with children, but this doesn't seem right."

"Everything hurts." Elunara whimpered.

Everyone turned to her at once. Ina took the child and walked him over. She laid the child in Elunara's arms. She blinked at the child. "Well, the gossipers can stop worrying about the father. There's no mistaking that skin." 

Ina raised the child's lip.

Elunara's head snapped up. "He has a FANG?"

Ina nodded. 

"But, that doesn't make any sense."

"Does anything about him make sense?" Ina whispered.

"Damn this time warp shit." She muttered.

Grogek kissed her forehead. "It's alright. He is ours. No matter what is strange. We should name him."

"Ahh." Elunara stared at the child. "Darguni." It's a mishmash of Darnassus, Grogek, and Tulani. 

Grogek laughed. "I like it!"

Tulani smiled. "Thank you."

"Well, he's ours after all."

Ina sniffled. "You're going to make me all sentimental."

Darguni started to cry. 

"Uhh, what am I supposed to do now?"

"Try feeding him."

"Feed him what?"

Grogek snorted and turned away. Tulani giggled. Ina smacked her own face. 

Tulani leaned forward. "Breast milk." She whispered.

"Oh." Elunara looked horrified. "I have to what now?" She whispered. 

"Let me help." Tulani tried to not giggle. It took some effort and several tries, but they finally determined that Elunara wasn't producing anything. Even Ina came to try and came to the same conclusion. 

"Nothing's happening." Elunara frowned. 

"Let me try." Tulani took Darguni and sat down. He latched on immediately.

Elunara sighed and reached out laying a hand on Tulani's hair. "I guess he will take all three of us."

Because Elunara was still exhausted, Grogek carried her. She held Darguni and Tulani followed beside. They went to the training yard, because Grogek had one desire in life at the moment. Like dutiful little soldiers, they had kept up their training in his absence. Captain Jordan and General Renwa were over seeing. Word travelled fast, and half the town was following along like a parade. Grogek stopped at the head of the training yard. He let Elunara slide down to stand at his side. Elunara wrapped an arm around Tulani's waist and her other around Grogek's. His arm wrapped down her back as he held the child with one arm. Even as large as the child was, he was still tiny in his father's arms. 

"This is my son! Our son! Darguni!"

Everyone cheered. Elunara wondered how many of them sighed in relief over the look of the child. Grogek handed him back to her, and scooped her up, taking her back to the barracks. 

"I am so sick of this building." She muttered.

"Eh, you'll be back up in the next day or two." Ina patted her leg. "I just have to make sure you healed right. You almost killed yourself."

"Forgive me for not wanting a broken pelvis." She muttered.

"I don't disagree with ya, once I saw the size of him."

"How do you get that dagger?" Grogek frowned. "You had it in the fortress, but I haven't seen it again, until now." 

"It's enchanted. It resides back in a little hiding spot in Darnassus. When I need it, I call it. Then it disappears."

"Fascinating." 

"Think of it as tethered to its hiding spot."

"Well it's sharp enough." Ina snorted. "It did the job."

"It's self cleaning too." She laughed. "I can be searched and searched and no one will ever find it, but if I need a weapon, there it is."

"Clever." Grogek ran his fingers on the baby's head. "I wonder how long until he gets his other fang."

"I don't know." Ina sighed. "He may never have more than one. We just don't know. It's odd enough, an orc and a Night Elf having a child, but then this time thing. I mean, none of the other children had anything remarkable about them, but their parents have come from the same time. I'm going to send out some messages, see if any Draenei from THIS time have had children with the Draenei from our time. Maybe they had strange children too."




For the Whored Ch. 030



"He is a strange child. But we are a strange family." Tulani said as she smiled.



For the Whored Ch. 031a



If Elunara thought the townsfolk were nice before, now they were just smothering. She was certain which ones were just being nosey, and the few that wanted confirmation that the kid wasn't theirs. Other times, she eyed their gifts and food with suspicion. Tulani tried to assure her that this was normal, but normal in Elunara's world involved being shunned and mistrusted. She felt that she hid behind Tulani in these situations.

The townsfolk got together and built a nursery room off the back of the Barracks. Tulani sewed an army of stuffed animals. Elunara drew constantly, and had filled the walls with scenery from nursery rhymes. Tulani took over most of the care of the child, as Elunara was completely at a loss. In fact, she felt a little jealous. 

"Let's go for a walk, I cannot sit still today."

Tulani laughed as she replaced a diaper. "You haven't sat still since Ina cleared you to move."

"Here, I want him." Elunara picked Darguni up and laid him on her shoulder. "Come with me."

"Alright, alright. Let me just put this in the basket."

Elunara stood outside. She waved at the people who waved at her. She was still a little unsure about it. Tulani stepped out and closed the door. They threaded their fingers together and started to walk. 

"Grogek is supposed to get a new shipment of trainees any day now."

"He'll be happy about that." Tulani smiled and waved at someone.

"He's whipping them into shape faster and faster. He's going to have his own personal army soon." 

They had a giggle. 

"Well, he is picking his favorites out to stay." Tulani cocked her head to the side. "That's an odd crest."

"What are you tal-" Elunara froze. Her eyes grew wide and she backed up a step.

"Lu? What's wrong?"

"It can't be." She whispered. Her grip tightened on Darguni and she turned to run, but Grogek was behind her. 

"I was look.... What's wrong?"

Elunara stared at Grogek as if not seeing him. She wrapped her arms around the baby and looked as if she would flee. 

Tulani pointed. "That set her off."

He looked up. His eyes narrowed. "That is the banner of her homeland." Grogek scooped Elunara up. She began to struggle, but when Darguni began to cry, she focused on comforting him.

"Why are you taking me there?" She whispered as a tear streamed down her face. 

"We have been summoned. I think it's time you faced this."

Tulani ran along behind. "We'll be here for you. Whatever "this" is."

Grogek deposited her at the door to General Renwa's office. "Now, are you going to FIGHT, my little she-wolf, or are you going to cry?"

Tulani ran a hand down Elunara's hair. "I can take him if you want."

Elunara let out a shaky breath. "No. No, I want to keep him. He... he helps."

Grogek shoved the door open and the three of them made their way inside. The woman standing in front of Renwa's desk looked back and her eyes grew wide. She looked back and forth between the three faces and her gaze rested on the child. She turned back to Renwa. 

"Is this some kind of JOKE?"

"Commander Grogek is a respected officer of my company. Elunara is a valuable mission specialist and Tulani is a gifted tailor and healer. This is no joke; in fact, I believe you needed to see them as they are; a family." Renwa nodded to Grogek. "This is Tyrande Whisperwind, current leader of the Night Elves."

"And my mother." Elunara added.

Both Grogek and Tulani gawked at Elunara. 

"I see she failed to mention that part to any of you." Tyrande glared.

Though she knew she was perfectly still, she could feel the shaking deep in her chest. Darguni began to whimper and she turned her attention to him. "Hush, hush, my sweetness. Don't cry. I'm ok." She rubbed her cheek against the baby's head.

"That thing is YOURS?"

Elunara glared back. "He is not a thing. He is Darguni and he is our baby."

Tyrande covered her face with her hand. "You can't do ANYTHING normal CAN you?"

She handed the baby to Grogek and propped her fists on her hips. "What is normal, mother? Fucking the same Night Elf, until I get bored and find me a second Night Elf? Maybe pop you out a pure blood heir ever so often? That was never my life, mother. I never wanted that."

"No, you just wanted to let any lesser who wanted a touch, have a touch! Then what did you DO? You spit in the face of everything that we are!"

"Says the woman who beds herself with an amalgamation of ANIMALS!"

"He is a noble druid and he is frozen in that form, it is not his fault!"

"Like you care about whose FAULT anything is!"

Renwa came around the desk and put himself in the center. "STOP IT, BOTH OF YOU!" He roared. 

"You bed yourself with an Orc." Tyrande scoffed.

"And a Draenei, and a Human, and whatever else agrees." 

"I said stop." Renwa growled. "I did not bring you in here to fight like angry cats."

"Why did you bring us here?" Grogek handed Darguni to Tulani.

"Mostly, I wanted to show you as a family. But, Tyrine has apparently been very influential back in Darnassus, and claims Elunara should be tried for treason."

"That worthless bimbo." Elunara smacked her forehead. 

"Regardless of what she said, Grogek has been training our troops for well over a year and has helped us make amazing progress here in Draenor. Elunara, much to her regret hasn't been on a mission since she brought Grogek to us. I can even make the argument that Mylune almost ruined the mission that brought Grogek to us. Elunara had the tenuous position of trying to work Grommash to our advantage. Whatever transpired between her and the errant rogue, helped to cement her hold on the fortress, giving us detailed information we otherwise would not have had. If you care to read through the mission reports, I'd be glad to hand them over."

"Oh, and because you didn't ask..." Elunara took Darguni back. "Grogek is my husband; we had a ceremony and everything. Tulani is... somewhere between my wife and my girlfriend?" She shrugged. "We haven't figured that ceremony out yet."

Tyrande's mouth dropped open, and Renwa smacked his forehead. "What is WRONG with you?" He groaned.

"What?" Elunara shrugged. "She should know how MY FAMILY works."

Tulani stiffed a giggle. 

Elunara jerked her thumb at Tulani. "See? ONE person is used to me by now."

Grogek dropped a hand on her shoulder and kissed the back of her head. "That's my vicious little she wolf."

"Ok, two." Elunara rubbed her hand on the baby's back. 

"What is wrong with you, she asks." Tulani continued to fight giggles. "I contend, what is wrong with everyone else?"

"Well, hell, you were in the ceremony, does that count or should we do a new one?" Elunara cocked her head.

"Oh no, please don't fuss over me, I'm quite happy as things are."

"Your happiness is my main concern." Elunara kissed Tulani on the nose.

Tyrande stomped her foot. "This is outrageous! You submit me to your pathetic little games..."

Renwa shook his head. "Silly actions or no, Elunara and Tulani are together. Ask anyone in the town and they will recognize Grogek and Elunara to be married, most of them attended the wedding. Ask them again and they'll say that they don't understand it, but Tulani is as a part of that family as the rest of them. I have to agree. These three are quite the valuable part of our town and I for one won't let you take any of them."

"Take her where?" Grogek growled. 

"No one's going anywhere, big guy." Renwa patted his arm. "Not only will I stand in your way, I'm quite certain the entire town will. Want to get technical? I can pull in troops stationed all over that owe something to Grogek and Elunara."

"Wait," She tapped her chin. "Last I checked; most are afraid of me."

Renwa laughed. "Quite terrified actually."

The door broke open and Grogek had to shift out of the way. Captain Jordan, along with Jerry and Louis were pouring sweat and panting. 

"Heard... you were being.... Arrested." Jerry panted.

"Boy, do I need to fix that endurance problem?" Grogek snarled. 

All three men snapped to attention and did their best to hide their exhaustion. "Sorry, sir." Jerry saluted. "We came fresh off of training, sir."

"Sir!" Captain Jordan was flushed but maintained composure. "I can't let them take her, Sir."

Renwa raised a brow. "And why not?"

"She's too valuable a mission specialist, sir. And she keeps the Orc in check. I'd shudder to think what would happen if he were angered." Jordan eyes Grogek warily.

Tyrande spit. "Men think with their dicks."

"Oh, mother, you HAVE learned something from me." Elunara snorted.

"I dare you bring me one man who hasn't fucked her." Tyrande continued.

Louis raised his hand like a boy at school. Jerry sheepishly raised his hand too.

"As if I believe that."

"Jerry and I..." Louis looked at Jerry and grabbed his hand. "Well, we're not interested in women. I-If you get my meaning."

Elunara grinned. "So you're telling people now?"

"N-No! Please don't..."

Elunara sighed. "Guys, I wish you would."

Jordan scratched the back of his head. "They wouldn't be all that surprised."

Tyrande grit her teeth. "Can we get back to the topic at hand? I did not leave the safety of my own time to sit here and listen to this mindless prattle!"

"Then go back home!" Elunara snapped. "It's not like I'm allowed to go there anyway. Am I wanted for treason, mother? I mean, I did have to slit that dumb bitch's throat just to hold my cover. Or would you have rathered I let them "safely" capture her, and break her spirit and her mind? Believe me, the only reason they didn't do it to me, was they thought I'd enjoy it too much."

Renwa sighed. "Has there ever been a point in your life when you thought before you spoke? EVER?" 

"She speaks the truth." Everyone looked up at Grogek. "When we thought you were our prisoner, your behavior was strange and disturbing. Even that night that..." Grogek swallowed hard. "That he broke every bone in your body... he was terrified of you. You were locked in that room because of his fear. He never said, but I saw his face. He even ordered me to kill you. But I couldn't." Grogek ran a hand on his head. "Even then I knew; you were a feral wolf, of which I had never seen. Such ferocity in the face of pain. It was beautiful." He stared at Elunara. "Your friend... had you not killed her when you did, she would have been tortured, and when we had nothing left to rip from her, you would have been forced to kill her to prove your allegiance, or died by the blade."

The silence hung thick in the air. Jerry and Louis tried to back towards the door. Elunara and Grogek just stared at each other, ignoring the world around them.

"And you give yourself to this Orc?" Tyrande was appalled.

"I love this man."

Tyrande looked dumbstruck. 

Grogek leaned down and brushed his lips against Elunara's. He began to speak in orcish and she replied in elvish. He pulled her into his arms and placed a hand on Darguni.

"You don't even know what that word means." Tyrande frowned.

"Actually, mother, I do." Elunara shifted her head and frowned. "And I now understand that you don't love me."

"WHAT?" Shrieked Tyrande.

"You love the idea of who I should have been. Who I could never be. No, you love an ideal that does not exist. You were quick to throw me out of Darnassus, but you never tried, even once, to understand me."

Darguni started to whimper and Elunara handed him to Tulani. 

"I spent thirty years of my life believing my emotions to be dead. Believing I was never capable of love because I could never experience love. It took an ORC and a DRAENEI to unlock the parts of me I thought broken. And you know what? I'm grateful to them. They love me because of who I am. They know what I do. In fact, he sends them to me. Like little gifts."

Tyrande turned pale. 

"Tulani here, walks in, says "oops sorry", and comes back after they leave." She jerked her head in the direction of the nursing Tulani. "And yet they both still love me." She laid a hand on Grogek's chest. "Say it." She whispered.

"I see you. I know you."

She grabbed a fang and pulled him down for a kiss. She turned back to Tyrande. "You see, mother, I know love very well. When someone loves you, they do all they can to understand you, even when they don't." She reached out and patted Renwa on the chest. "Love takes all kinds, actually."

Tyrande put a hand to her forehead. "You have this whole town tied up, don't you?"

"And so much more. Though, Renwa here is actually an old lover turned friend. I do like to pick on him about it."

"Years ago, you wouldn't have used the word lover. Even I know that." Renwa shook his head.

Tyrande sighed and leaned back against the desk. "I believe I have been put in my place."

"If you care to play nice, I'll even let you see your grandson." Elunara gestured to the baby. "After he's done eating, of course."

"Why does she nurse him?" Tyrande cocked her head to the side.

"Because I cannot."

"Unfortunate."

"Captain Jordan, Jerry, Louis." Renwa raised an eyebrow. "I believe you all have duties elsewhere."

Jerry and Louis acted like they escaped with their lives. Captain Jordan had the dignity to walk out properly.

Elunara laughed. "To think Captain Jordan was avoiding us those months ago."

"You're good at slapping people the way they need to be slapped." Renwa shrugged. "I can't believe our Tulani has come along so well." He dropped a hand on to her head. 

She grinned up at him. "I had a good teacher."

Renwa turned to Tyrande. "Tulani here was captured and sold by ogre slavers into the sex trade. They had her for a little over a year before a set of adventurers rescued her. She found her way here and attached herself to Elunara. It came at a cost though, the women she was rescued with turned on her after learning of Elunara's checkered past." He sighed. "Due to the delicacy of the situation, none of us really knew what to do." 

"Elunara saved me; as she continues to do, over and over. I was glad to return the favor when you so foolishly ripped your own stomach open." Tulani wagged a finger at Elunara.

"I wasn't going to deal with a broken pelvis, thank you very much!"

Tyrande blinked back and forth. "You did what?"

"She cut open her own belly, when our son wasn't going to be born right. She probably saved her own life." Grogek nodded. "She is the fiercest she-wolf I have ever known."

Elunara laughed. "I have no idea why I like when you call me that."

"What other exploits have you been up to?"

"I ripped a guy's balls off."

"They were still mostly attached. Though he did deserve it." Renwa shrugged.

"I spent most of my time drawing portraits these days, though the past several months I've been sick with child, so I haven't been able to leave my bed. Before that I've been doing full body sketches in order to build a compendium for the healers to use."

"You've serviced most of the men in my battalion." Grogek snorted.

"Oh yeah, that's always my favorite part."

"You've help restore the lives of the refugees, and helped find them homes." Tulani added. "She also sings to them when they are sad." 

"Well, yeah I guess I did."

"You've help find jobs for many people, and helped reorganize the town a few times to accommodate them." Renwa nodded.

"I guess you, could claim that."

"You infiltrated a major enemy base, became the kept pet of the Warchief and started pumping back endless pages of Intel that helped us win key points. You also managed to explode half their fortress in the escape." Renwa pointed.

"How DID you give them that information?" Grogek interrupted. "I never figured it out."

Elunara pulled out a sheet of paper and scribbled some runes. "Remember these?"

"Yes, I saw them in your work, but never understood their meaning."

She wadded it up and tossed it over her shoulder. The page hit the ground and caught on fire. Once it was gone, a paper floated down from the ceiling and landed on the desk. She picked it up and handed it to him. "Teleportation runes."

Grogek examined the paper. "Amazing."

"Nifty, huh?"

"You are aware she used you for information?" Tyrande gawked at Grogek. 

He grinned. "Enjoyed every minute of it."

"Oh, yeah. I slit your sister's throat."

"Well, she wasn't entirely sane by then."

Elunara snorted. 

Tyrande walked to Renwa's chair and just sat down looking flustered. "I can't get my head around it." 

"Nobody ever gives me enough credit."

"Well, you are head strong." Grogek said.

"And hot headed." Renwa added.

"And not afraid to rip out someone's throat when they piss you off." Tulani added helpfully as she had the baby over her shoulder.

"I love you all." Elunara responded sarcastically.

"Aww, but you're so sweet and caring." Tulani smiled.

"And always looking out for others." Renwa supplied.

"You have the heart of a she wolf. Brave, strong, and vicious. And you use it to protect this town." Grogek kissed her on the forehead.

"Stop, you're all going to make me mushy." She reached out and Tulani handed up Darguni. She cuddled the baby. 

Tulani readjusted herself and stood up, laying her head on Elunara's shoulder. Grogek leaned over Elunara's other shoulder and rested one hand on Tulani's shoulder. He brushed a finger over the baby's cheek. Elunara leaned back against him. Even Renwa scooted closer. It was a complete unit Tyrande was staring at. They had dismissed her and were a focused on the baby. The little one sneezed and then she saw it. A single fang sticking out. 

While Tyrande was staring at that, she noticed Elunara brush her lips across the top of the Draenei's head. Renwa said something and Elunara rolled her eyes. Grogek was speaking to her and she laughed and kissed his chin. This was not the defiant and nasty thing she had thrown out of her city all those years ago. If even half of what they said was true...

Tyrande cleared her throat and all looked at her as if she had magically appeared. "I guess I should get a closer look then." The Orc eyed her, the ferocious beast ready to defend his mate. Renwa stepped aside, but angled himself in such a way that he could step back between her and his lover. The Draenei looked mild enough, but her stance was ready to protect. How Elunara had managed to surround herself with such people was beyond Tyrande's comprehension. 

She approached with caution. 

Tyrande leaned down and ran her finger on the baby's cheek. "Is that a fang? How old is he?"

"He's only a couple of weeks old. He was born with that fang."

"That's..." Tyrande stared into her daughter's face. 

"Strange. I know." Elunara sighed. 

"But we are a strange family." Tulani added simply.

"That..." Tyrande blinked and straightened up. "That is very true." She finally said.

"Speaking of family," Elunara frowned. "Where is Malfurion?" 

"He had to stay behind and take care of Darnassus. He advised against this trip, but I knew I had to handle things personally." Tyrande bit her lip "May... May I hold him?"

All went on alert, but they awaited Elunara's answer. Elunara narrowed her eyes. "Why?"

"Because up until about ten minutes ago, I did not know I had a grandson."

Elunara's lip quirked. "I suppose for a minute or two."

Tyrande was as fascinated by this little group as she was by the child she now held. He was quiet and seemed to be staring at her with eyes beyond his age. She only held him for a short time, but when she handed him back, the tension seemed to go out of the others. 

"Show me this strange little town of yours."

Elunara had given Tulani the baby and walked with her hand twined with Grogek's. Tulani fell in step behind the two of them. She didn't seem insulted by this position; in fact she was more relaxed now, like an old routine. 

"Let's return Darguni to his room. He needs a nap." Tulani said.




For the Whored Ch. 031a



"Yes, you are right." Elunara nodded. She looked back. "I never think of these things."

"It's alright. I'll stay with him."

"Thank you, Tulani."

Elunara stopped and turned. She kissed the baby's head and then putting both hands on either side of Tulani's face, kissed her deeply. Tulani blushed and bowed her head. She disappeared down the street.

Grogek laughed. "You know you embarrass her when you do that in front of people."

"But she's just so damned cute." Elunara grinned.

They walked through town; Renwa spoke as they made their way to the training yard. Many stopped to ask about Elunara's health. 

"Elunara!" The old man waved his arm. "Come here a minute."

Elunara shrugged and walked over. "Hello Mr. Finister."

"Glad to catch ya. Ol' Gerta's been staring at that picture you made me. She's gone green with envy and won't let me live it down. Ya think she can sit for ya?"

"Certainly. Have her come over when she gets a chance."

"One more thing." Finister lowered his voice a bit. "My son, he's a nice young thing, recently married. He and his wife are having some... difficulties." He rocked his head back and forth. "Your kind of specialty, ya know?" He scratched his head. "Nice boy, not good at standing up for himself. I thought maybe you could... ya know..." He rocked his head back and forth again. "Give him some pointers?"

"You send them both to me. On a private day, and I'll see what I can do to help them."

He bopped his head. "Thank you kindly." He looked over at Grogek and noticed the pretty Night Elf. "Oh, I didn't realize you had..." The man gasped as the woman stepped forward. "Light almighty, it's the Queen of Darnassus!"

Elunara laughed. "That's not really her title."

"Darned close enough!" He exclaimed and then bowed.

Tyrande laughed. "Do not bow to me." She helped the man up. "My daughter was just showing me your quaint little town."

Elunara stared at Tyrande.

Finister began to bluster. "You didn't tell me you was royalty."

Elunara's eyes narrowed and she glared at the man. "I am NOT." She relaxed a bit and frowned. "No matter who my parentage is, I am still me. I have never changed."

"Oh, you've changed quite a lot since I banished you." Tyrande said quietly. "I have yet to determine if I made the right choice, and helped you change... or the wrong choice and shut you out all this time." She shrugged. She turned to Finister. "Do not change your opinion of her based on me. She would be angry with me all over again."

The man nodded but kept his mouth shut. Once they walked away, he dove into his house.

"Goddammit, every time I finally get people coming around again, something runs them off." Elunara pound her forehead with the palm of her hand.

Grogek grabbed her hand and kissed her forehead. "It will die down again. Would you like me to tie a few up for you?"

She tapped her chin with a finger. "We'll put that one on backup plan."

"We finally got the last squatter out of the southern orchard." Renwa offered.

With a sigh, Elunara ran a finger across his chest. "You know me so well, Sugarcube."

He nodded. "Always happy to help. I might stop by myself."

"What is the southern orchard?" Tyrande asked.

"Oh," Elunara said airily. "I like to entertain a crowd ever so often."

"Your singing voice is amazing." Grogek nodded.

She smirked at him.

"You sing?" Tyrande's eyebrows rose. 

"When the mood strikes me."

"And her battle prowess is amazing." Grogek nodded. 

They reached the training ground. Grogek called formation and every man dropped his task to line up. There were gasps and murmurs among the crew, but a single snort had every snapping to attention. 

"Impressive." Tyrande nodded as she inspected the troops. 

Pleased, Grogek nodded. "At ease."

The tension went out of the air. Grogek gave Elunara a meaningful glance before heading down into the training yard. Linal walked up and knelt a moment before addressing Tyrande. 

"What are you doing here?"

Tyrande looked at Elunara out of the corner of her eye. "I had personal business to attend to."

Linal looked at Elunara. 

Elunara shrugged. "We're on speaking terms now." 

"I'm so glad." He seemed to release the tension in his body. "How is the baby?" 

"Darguni is well. Tulani has him."

"You are a lucky family. Vivi and I have been discussing it back and forth and we've decided to just let it happen."

Elunara nodded. "That's always best I think."

"Where is Vivi?" Tyrande asked. 

Linal jumped as if he'd forgotten Tyrande's presence. "I'll go get her."

"I'm curious as to the casual way everyone treats you. Grogek they fear, but a fear borne out of respect. He is not Iron Horde to them; he doesn't even qualify as orc. You are friend. They do not look down upon you; they come to you with problems and ask for your advice. This is not the reactions you left us with."

"Hey, it's weird to me too. Even after I brought Grogek here, they treated me like a disease. They were terrified of Grogek, and wouldn't come to me for my hobby. They feared what he would do to them; they thought him possessive and dangerous. He has proven himself to them, and I have helped him. Yes, I have had sex with at least half of these men, and still, they don't look at me as meat. What happens in my room stays there. Once we are outside, we are public people." Elunara shook her head. "It's completely weird, damn it all." She laughed. "They waited until I was incapacitated, the rest of the town. When I was trapped in bed, they came to me and said "Oh, you're safe now, please draw us."

"What happened to you?"

"The baby. He grew too fast and my body couldn't keep up."

"How strange." Tyrande muttered. 

Linal returned with Vivi.

Vivi knelt briefly. "My lady."

"How have you been Vivi?" Tyrande smiled.

Vivi fidgeted. "I've been well. The training under Grogek is much more strenuous than anything I faced as a sentinel."

"Is that so?" Tyrande murmured. She sighed. "Your mother is still angry with you. However, she at least asked me to check up on you once I was here."

Vivi released a breath she did not know she was holding. "Grogek's training is harsh, but the land here is harsher than anything we have ever faced. I am pushing myself longer and harder than before, and it feels amazing."

They spent some time at the yard and then walked through town. Elunara decided to show Tyrande her barracks room. She pushed open the door and let her in. Tulani was sitting at her sewing desk. 

"Where's Darguni?" Elunara walked to Tulani and placed her hands on the woman's shoulders. She put her nose on Tulani's hair and breathed in.

"He's sleeping. I thought I'd get some work done while he was."

"That's fine," Elunara nuzzled her hair. "I figured he was in there." 

"Did you draw these?" Tyrande whispered. She stared, wide eyed at the pictures on the wall.

"Yes."

Tyrande moved around the room looking at all of the pictures hanging along the wall. Samples Elunara had taken from all of her work and hung about the room. Tyrande stopped at the many poses of Tulani and simply stared with an open mouth. She blinked a couple of times and moved on, stopping again at the posing goblin, before moving on. A blush formed in her face as she stared at the portrait above Elunara's desk. Grogek, reclining, fully naked, the sheets crumpled around him, his obvious parts laid out. Tyrande backed away and shook her head.

"You're saying you drew every single one of these?"

"Sit."

"What?"

Elunara pulled out a chair and pointed. "Sit."

Tyrande sat and stared at Elunara. Elunara pulled out her board and papers and began to draw. She worked for sometime before standing up and handing the paper to Tyrande. Tyrande took it and stared at her own reflection.

"This is amazing." She breathed. 

"This is what I do." Elunara closed her board. "This is what I've always done. I draw. My favorite subject to draw just happens to be naked men. I love their bodies. The curves and angles, the hard and the soft. I love what I can do with them and to them. I want to know and I want to feel them with every part of myself. Most of all, I just want to draw them. I found I had a usable skill set. I could seduce men and leech every single secret out of them. I could control them with my own body. I could then turn around and copy every piece of information down and send it to the correct people. I was the ultimate mission specialist. I was queen of the world, and then I managed to get Grogek. He was the cherry on my pie. My goal was to make him give up every little secret I could squeeze out of him and then, either slit his throat and move on, or hand him over to another keeper." 

Elunara sighed and put her board on her desk. She tugged down the drawing of Grogek. "There was just one problem. Not only did Grogek love me... but he understood me." She held out the paper. "You see, men have said they loved me before. Lots of them. I didn't believe it because I thought love to be a misplaced illusion. My emotions were dead, why would it matter to me if they loved me? Except Grogek is a bit persistent. He knows me, he loves me, and that's something amazing." 

She sat down on the bed and stared at the picture. "Grogek isn't the quitting kind. He got under my skin. I love him. He's the first person I have ever loved. The first person I even recognized as friend. Then suddenly, everything fell into place, and I understood that I had friends. I suddenly realized that Renwa was my friend. That people had tried to be my friend." She hugged the paper. "Everything suddenly made sense."

Tulani put down her sewing and walked over to Elunara. She knelt down and wrapped her arms around Elunara's waist. Elunara ran her fingers through Tulani's hair. 

"Tulani here just snuck right on in." Elunara laughed. She looked down. "I need to do your hooves again, my Sweetness. I'll get the tools tomorrow."

"It'll be fine." Tulani smiled.

"There are several beds in here." Tyrande commented.

"The big one belongs to me and Grogek. The small one right there against the wall belongs to Tulani, the other three are for guests... I don't like to pollute our beds." She shrugged. "I may be a whore, but I have my own standards."

Tulani giggled as she rubbed her horn in Elunara's lap. Elunara grabbed a horn. "What are you giggling about?"

"I'm just picturing that day those nasty women called you a whore, and you told them that you were sick of uncreative insults."

Elunara tapped a finger to her chin. "I don't even remember half the stuff I yell, some days."

Tulani looked up. "Why do you think Renwa hates it when people "get her started"?"

Elunara sighed. The door opened and Grogek walked in. He dropped his axe by the door. 

"Oh, she's still here." Grogek shrugged. He walked past Tyrande and laid a gentle kiss on Elunara's mouth. She grabbed him by a fang and tugged him in deeper. He lost his balance a little and caught a hand on the bed. Tulani shifted her head out of the path of being squished. Grogek pushed himself up and grinned, before dropping a kiss on Tulani's head. 

"How are my ladies?" He straightened up and yanked off his shirt. 

Elunara stretched. "It's been a long day."

Tulani stood up and went back to her desk, picking up her sewing. "You should rest, I think." 

"I think I should be going." Once again, everyone turned and stared at Tyrande as if she had just appeared. She was quite used to the respect and attention she demanded. Now, she felt like she intruded on a private little world. She stared down at the portrait of herself.

Elunara stood up and shrugged. She tacked the picture of Grogek back on the wall. The man was half dressed and didn't give a damn about Tyrande. The baby began to cry and the Draenei put down her sewing and walked into the back room. 

Tyrande simply turned and left. 

Elunara dismissed the woman and stuck her head in the other room. "Everything ok?"

"He's hungry. I'll get him back to sleep."

"There are moments when I envy you." Elunara sighed.

"I'm sorry." Tulani sat in the rocking chair, feeding Darguni.

"Eh." Elunara shrugged. "It's ok. This probably works out better in the end." 

She looked over at Grogek, who was sitting on the bed, fully erect. She closed the door and walked over, tugging her pants off. "Is that an invitation?"

"Spoke to Ina earlier, said you should be plenty ready by now."

Elunara grinned and ran her hand up the length of him. "I've been going crazy." He picked her up and sat her in his lap, just above his dick. She raised her hips and slowly slipped down on him with a purr. "Oh, I've missed this."

He groaned. "Did you get tighter?"

"Well, it has been awhile." Tulani remarked. "First too sick," Tulani wrapped her arms around Elunara, and she felt Tulani's bare breast press into her back. "Then too big." Tulani licked Elunara's neck. "Then you had to heal."

Grogek grinned. Tulani began to lick and nibble at Elunara's neck as she cupped a breast and fingered a nipple. Grogek went for the other shoulder and breast. 

"Ok," Groaned Elunara. "Now you two are going to kill ME."

Tulani giggled. "It's always right here..." Tulani dragged her teeth across Elunara's shoulder. At Elunara's shiver, Tulani reached her hand down and rubbed her fingers on the lower lips, and felt Elunara's wetness sliding down Grogek's dick.

Elunara grabbed Tulani's arm and tugged her forward. With a look to Grogek, they got Tulani picked up and sat in front of Elunara.

"Mmm now let's see about this." Elunara purred. She cupped one breast and lightly brushed her thumb against the nipple. "Now, Ina told me that I had to be careful. Since you're nursing and all, you're going to be painfully sensitive."

Tulani wiggled. Her back was on Grogek's chest, and she could feel his dick below her. Elunara's crotch was pressed against her own. She was flush with excitement, but hissed at the attention to her tender nipples. She nodded. "They're tender alright." She whimpered.

"Now, let's see what we can do about that." Elunara slipped her fingers in Tulani as her other hand slipped under her breast. Tulani wiggled on her fingers and Elunara grinned. She kissed Tulani, exploring her mouth and tongue. 

Grogek's hand came up and cupped Elunara's breast and ran thumb across her hardened nipple. His other slipped around and with one finger, slipped into her ass. Elunara groaned into Tulani and began to slip up and down Grogek's dick. 

Elunara let go of Tulani's breast and reached down and grabbed her ass. She slipped her fingers out and ran them up Tulani's belly. The Draenei shivered. Elunara hand slipped under Tulani's chin and around the back of her neck. She crushed Tulani's hair in her fingers. As she slid up and down, her crotch slammed against Tulani's. The sensation had Tulani shaking and her wetness slipped down around Grogek's dick. 

Elunara accidentally bit Tulani's lip and made her yelp. She murmured apologies and softly licked the bite. Grogek grabbed Elunara's hips and began to move her up and down. When Elunara clamped down, he finally gave in and erupted inside her.

He collapsed back against the board. Elunara wiggled off of him and shifted Tulani over so they both could lay on his chest. They made a little cuddle pile.

"That was long overdue." Grogek muttered.

"Well, now that I'm back in business, we can get back to..."

There was a crying sound coming from the other room. Tulani laughed and wiggled out of bed. "I'll get him."

"I was going to say, our routine..." Elunara muttered.

Grogek laughed and kissed her head. "We will build a new one."

Tulani came out of the room holding the wailing child. "He's fed, he's clean, he's just angry. I'm not sure."

"Here." Elunara reached out. 

Tulani laid the baby in Elunara's arms. She got him adjusted on her shoulder and he calmed down, burying his face in her hair.

"Oh, thank Elune." Elunara whispered. "I thought he wouldn't like me."

Tulani blinked. "Why ever would you think that?"

She shrugged. "You feed him and take care of him. I just stand there and watch."

"You're his mother." Tulani shrugged.

"You are both his mothers." Grogek tugged Tulani back into the bed. He wrapped his arms around them "You are all my family." He began speaking in orcish again.

Elunara laughed. "You're just a giant softy.

"I really need to learn both of your languages." Tulani sighed.

Elunara blinked and stared at Darguni. "Poor child is going to know four languages."

They all had a laugh.



For the Whored Ch. 031b



The following morning, Elunara actually woke up first. She made her way into the baby's room and had him ready for Tulani before she could get out of bed. Grogek eyed her with suspicion. 

"Who are you and where is my wife?"

"Do you know how many hours I spent in that damned bed? And not fun hours either." She shook her head and handed Darguni to Tulani. While Tulani fed the baby, Elunara pulled out her board and began to design. 

Grogek shook his head and climbed out of bed. He got dressed and looked over at the drawing. 

"What is it?"

"A carrier. Well, sort of? I don't know, I'm trying to figure out how to make it work so that we can work, and still take care of him."

Grogek kissed the top of her head. "You'll figure it out."

"I will help." Tulani smiled.

They eventually figured out a fabric sling and a stroller. Tulani recommended the fabrics, set out to get it made. 

Elunara was still sketching when there was a knock on the door. "Hello, Mrs. Finister."

"Isaac said you'd be expecting me."

"Come on in." Elunara pulled out a chair. "Please sit and we'll get to work."

"Where's the baby?" 

"Sleeping in his room." 

"And the girl?"

"Tulani ran to the tailor for some fabric."

"You are an odd family."

Elunara looked at the woman and then adjusted her in the chair. Once she was satisfied, she popped open her board. "That's probably a ridiculous understatement." 

"My husband says you are the daughter of Tyrande Whisperwind."

Elunara looked up with narrowed eyes. "That doesn't matter."

The woman's eyebrows shot up. "It's just an interesting fact."

Elunara frowned as she flicked her eyes back and forth between her work and the woman. "My mother and I haven't spoken in over thirty years. She shows up yesterday and suddenly claims me in front of a stranger. I'm not the least bit pleased by that."

"Oh." Mrs. Finister's face fell. "I didn't mean to make you angry."

With a sigh, she looked up. "Well, you didn't d-" At the knock on the door, she frowned and closed her board. "Hold on." 

Mrs. Finister watched as Elunara walked to the door and opened it. Mrs. Finister's eyebrows shot up as she saw Tyrande herself outside the door.

"Mother, what are you doing here?"

"I wanted to see you again before I go. Malfurion will be worried until I am safe back home."

"Well, hurry up with it."

"May I come in? I would like to see the baby one more time."

Elunara sighed. "Whatever." She frowned at the woman in the chair. "I'm sorry about the intrusion. You can stay in the chair. I'll continue after we're done." She led the way to the nursery and opened the door. "He's a sound sleeper, but please don't wake him up." 

"You know, I never thought I'd find an Orc child beautiful."

"Yeah, well, Orcs have done catastrophic damage to Kalimdor. That would turn one against them."

"You always sound so cynical and angry when I am around you, yet you've inspired these people to great things. You have a man, and strangely, a woman who both love you. Surely they see a side of you that you hide in front of me."

"Are you kidding?" Mrs. Finister snorted. "She's mean as a snake and likes to yell at people."

Elunara just blinked. 

"Who even knows how many of our men she's had her greedy little hands on?" She scoffed. "Or how many of them are completely terrorized by her. She's a complete menace." Mrs. Finister crossed her arms and snorted. "Does draw real pretty though." She sighed. "And that husband of hers sure has made this place a lot safer since she got him to take over the training." She put her hands in her lap. "Did get rid of those nasty little beasts harassing that poor girl and they do keep things interesting around here. Why she even broke that terrible gloom that boy Renwa used to carry around." Mrs. Finister tapped a finger on her chin. "Yes, that girl is a mighty headache, but she does like to give gifts to random people for no particular reason." She sighed. "Children don't turn out like you want them to, but they sure do surprise you in the long run."

Elunara continued to stare.

"Wiser words were never spoken." Tyrande smiled.

"She's a strange one, that girl." Mrs. Finister nodded. "Stood in front of the entire town, yelling that she was a whore and proud of it. How many times have I seen that girl stand up in front of the town and make declarations that would curl your hair? She married that Orc, even though she made him wait forever for it. Saw to the execution of a madman. Ran the trash out of town. Why, even her little sparring matches in the ring with that brute are something of a legend." She shook her head. "She is one of a kind. No one can argue that Commander Grogek doesn't love her with a passion that makes most blush. That Tulani loves her so much it's like watching a puppy. Yet, still she turns around and tugs men in here left and right. We all wondered... could he not see it? Was that girl so blind?" She laughed. 

Mrs. Finister raised a finger. "Here's where it gets weird. He knows." She nodded. "Oh, he does, let me tell you. He finds it funny. I've seen it when he's out there, and he's got the same one in front of him that she had in here. There's this shit eating grin on his face, and the trainee is just utterly terrified." She shook her head. "That man will give 10 times the effort in order to please his taskmaster. At first I felt bad for them, like it was a horrible game played on them, but then it just got funny. They do it to themselves."

Elunara leaned against the doorjamb and shook her head. "Everyone always seems to know my private business."

"Because you put up a giant banner and yell "Hey, look at this thing I did!" Mrs. Finister pointed at Elunara.

"What's the point of all this?"

"I'm old, and judgmental. I didn't like you at first. You brought that thing here and endangered all of us. But then you started chipping away. Chip, chip, chipping. Next thing we knew, we liked you. I don't know what happened between the two of you, but I think it's silly. She's a strange one alright, but we wouldn't have her any other way. I just wanted you both to know that."

"If I was charging for those portraits, yours would be free."

"Why don't you charge for them?"

Elunara grinned. "Oh, I charge for them. I just get enough out of the ones I charge, that it covers the cost of everyone else." 

Mrs. Finister gave her a stunned look before whooping in laughter. "Is THAT what you call it?"

"Honey, I got a thirst, and there's only one way to slake it."

Tears began to form as she laughed. "Oh, you are a wild one."

Darguni began to cry and Elunara rushed to scoop him up. "Oh, I'm sorry, sweetie." She cuddled him. "I didn't mean to wake you. Shh, don't cry now."

"Not bad for a woman who claimed her emotions were dead." Renwa's quiet voice startled Elunara.

"Where did you come from?"

"Sorry, Tyrande didn't arrive when she was supposed to, and I got worried."

Tyrande frowned. "What did you say?"

"Elunara once told me that her emotions were dead. I believe that was shortly after you threw her out, and she seemed to have no reaction to it."

Elunara frowned. "They weren't really dead. Grogek just found them for me." 

Renwa laughed and ran a knuckle down the baby's cheek. "Well, they were broken. I believed you. I knew you felt nothing when you completed a mission, it was done. Even when they looked at you with love in their eyes, you slit their throats and forget they ever existed. You were so goddamned terrifying. Yet, I wanted you." 

She sighed. "Must we go through this again?"

"No. I don't think we do. I just wanted Tyrande to understand the person you were, the person you are. I think we've all made our points, one way or another."

"Indeed you have." Tyrande shook her head. "It's quite a lot to take in, and I'll have plenty of time to think it over. I guess I am glad that I sent you out into the world, for you to make of yourself what you would. I... I still do not agree with what you do to your body, but it is yours to do with as you wish."

Tyrande hugged Elunara who just froze. She straightened up and ran a hand down the baby's back. "He is beautiful. And you will be good to him. Better than I have been to you. No, I do not understand you, but you have plenty of people who do." She turned and walked away. 

"General Renwa, I would like to see the mages now."

He nodded and led the way out. 

Elunara just sat on her bed and stared at the door. Mrs. Finister took a handkerchief out of her sleeve and handed it over to Elunara. She stared at it before taking the piece of fabric. 

"Hardened heart or not, you look like you could use a good cry." She reached out. "Can I hold him?"

Numbly, Elunara handed the woman her baby. 

"What is his name?"

"Darguni." She whispered. 

"Darguni, such a fascinating name for such a fascinating child." 

Elunara felt tears and wiped them dry. She took a breath and reached for her board. 

"Oh, honey, you don't have to worry about that now."

"This is how I deal with emotions that I do not understand. I draw." She popped open her board, rearranged her sheets and began to draw. After some time she sighed. "You know, he could use a grandmother that's local."

Mrs. Finister gawked at her. 

"Don't make that face; you're making it difficult to draw."

"But, I..."

"I think you've earned the right. Plus, he likes you."

"I'm honored." She nodded.

Tulani came back in. "I got the fabric. I am sorry I took so long, there was..." She rushed to Elunara's side and dropped to her knees. "You've been crying. Why have you been crying?" 

Elunara had to lift her board when Tulani wrapped her arms around her waist. She put her pencil down and ran a hand in Tulani's hair. "It's fine. I'm fine. It would take too long to explain. Please, just let me draw."

Tulani stood up and wrapped her arms around Elunara's neck. "You will tell me though, right?" 

Elunara returned the hug as best she could. "Yes, later. When Grogek is home."

"Alright." She frowned. "I am sorry I took so long."

"It's ok. I just made Mrs. Finister here, honorary grandmother." 

Tulani stared at the woman. "Now you have to explain that one."

The woman in question shrugged sheepishly. 

"She defended me even though she had no need to, against someone she knew full well who she was speaking to. That earns loyalty in my book."

"Admirable." Tulani nodded. "I take it your mother came by."

"That she did."

Darguni began to cry and Tulani took him. She went to a nearby chair and began to nurse. Elunara watched for some time before returning to her work. She was relatively calm by time Grogek came in. Mrs. Finister watched him out of the corner of her eye, but did not move from her pose. 

Grogek kissed Tulani on the head, ran his fingers on Darguni's back and then picked Elunara up and kissed her soundly. Elunara laughed and pushed at him.

"You made me drop my board." 

"I was worried about you. I almost cancelled training."

"Put me down you lunkhead."

"Damn you're huge." Mrs. Finister finally said with a snort.

"Elunara tells me that frequently." He grinned.

She cackled. 

"Your subjects don't usually stay this late." He helped her pick up her papers. 

"We got delayed. Mother came by."

Grogek frowned. "And I wasn't here. I'm sorry, I should have canceled."

Elunara waved a hand. "I can protect myself. Though, Mrs. Finister here gave it a good go anyway."

He nodded approvingly. 

"What's this I hear about you toying with my toys?" Elunara cocked an eyebrow.

Grogek feigned innocence. "I have no idea what you're talking about. My vicious little she wolf." He grinned. 

Mrs. Finister stood up. "Welp, I think it's high time I hightailed it out of here, before it gets... messy."

"I'll have your portrait in a day or two."

"That's alright dear, take all the time you need." She gave a wink and closed the door behind her. 

Tulani took the baby and put him in his room. Once the door was closed, she turned to Elunara. "Now it is time for you to talk."

Elunara stored her supplies and board away. "Before I tell you about today, it's time I told you about what happened."

"When I was young, I was reckless and I didn't give much attention to the emotions of my... toys. I knew they were toys, they didn't. It's actually quite common for one of our kind to form a tight bond with one, and then consider a side piece. Some time before, our men were taken away to the emerald dream in order to protect Ysera. The women of our kind stepped in. From men as the domiant ones, to women. Now almost all important positions are held by women. Our cities are protected by women, it is a great honor to become a sentinel. We did have one male leader Fandral, but he was such an ass that no one liked dealing with him. My mother was and still is, one of the greatest priests of our time. When Fandral went missing, she took over, and our people have looked to her ever since. 

What people don't know, is that Fandral had a son. The son was just as much an asshole as the father. However, he... courted me? I guess that's the best way to explain it. He fancied me, and I decided that he wasn't too bad looking. I mean, I had already eaten my way through most of the population, but that was easy enough to over look, given who my mother was. So, even though I didn't mind laying my hands on other races, which is highly frowned upon... I was still the daughter of Tyrande; therefore I was a prize to be won. 

Elunara shrugged. "I let myself be won. Not only was he pretty tasty to look at, he was a fair prize himself. Fandral was a dick, but he was still the Night Elf leader and head druid of the Cenarion Enclave. Nice prizes. Well, the son was a dick. A massive dick with a tiny penis. He was so convinced that he had "tamed the wild one" that he used to say it. To everyone. Gods, he was obnoxious. When I looked at others, as I could not control myself, he'd fluff about, saying how I was all his and no one else could have me. He was stupid enough to tell people that it was his impressive package that had tamed me.

I'd had enough. He was ruining my fun, and he was over blowing his own endowment. So..." She sighed. "So, I set him up. I had him in a "secret spot" in a public area, got him all nice and hard, and then shoved him out. I let everyone see just how grand a package that little asshole had. I even joined people in the pointing and laughing. He was humiliated. He refused to speak to me ever again. Which I was glad for. Until a few days later when we were under attack. I..." She shook her head. "He took a sword from one of the sentinels, made a grand speech about how he'd redeem himself and prove he was the mightiest... and died in about five seconds.

His death was pointless and stupid. And his own damned fault. However, it was my fault that he had been humiliated. Fandral was heartbroken and enraged. I was a loose cannon that was out of control and it was my whorish ways that got the boy killed." She shook her head again. "Tyrande took Fandral's side. It didn't help that many years later, it was his rage and grief that turned Fandral against our own people. If my banishment was a question, Fandral's insanity made it an answer. My own mother told the sentinels to kill on site, should I ever return to Darnassus."

"How awful." Tulani whispered.

"A foolish death by a foolish boy." Grogek nodded. "I do not fault you."

Elunara shrugged. "I never blamed myself, because the two incidents had nothing to do with each other. I knew him, and he would have done it no matter how it had turned out."

"Past is past. Now tell us how the rest of the day has been." Grogek nodded.



For the Whored Ch. 032



Elunara woke with Tulani in their bed. She was groggy at first and confused, but remembered Tulani had not wanted to leave her. She carefully untangled Tulani from her. Darguni was up and Tulani popped out of bed. 

Grogek headed out and Tulani said she had to do some work at the Tailor's she had been missing. Darguni would sleep for the next couple of hours, so Elunara began working on Mrs. Finister's portrait. At the knock on the door, she groaned. Opening the door she was surprised to see Jerry and Louis. 

"Well, in with ya." She sighed. She closed the door and turned to them. "What do you want?"

"Well, Grogek said you're...back." Jerry grinned.

"Like THAT kind of back." Louis blushed.

"Yes, yes I am."

"So, do you mind if we... uhhh." Jerry looked around. 

Elunara pointed to a bed in the far corner. "Stay there. And keep it down, the baby's asleep and I want to get some work done."

"Don't worry. We're getting real good at keeping quiet." Louis giggled.

"Just go." Elunara shook her head. She sat down and continued her work. She decided she was glad she had plenty of experience ignoring people. When she dropped her pencil and turned to pick it up, she was treated to a fascinating bit of male flesh works.

She turned back to her board and considered the idea. With a shrug she went back to her other work. An hour or so later and the low murmuring had her looking back. They were cuddling and she considered. 

"Hey guys?"

They looked up. 

"Can I draw you?"

They froze and looked at each other. 

"I wouldn't add your faces; it'd just be a study in bodies. I don't often get to see bodies like this."

"I don't know, Louis?"

"Well, if it's ok with you, Jerry."

Elunara shrugged. "It would mean extra time here... doing... that." She gestured to them.

"Yes!" Jerry grinned. "I like that plan."

"Cool. Next time then." 

Jerry and Louis left flushed and mussed up with a vague explanation of what had happened. Tulani laughed as she closed the door. 

"Who do those two think they fool?"

"Themselves mostly." Elunara shrugged. 

A couple of days later, Elunara answered a knock on the door. A man and woman stood outside the door, looking around nervously. 

"M-m-my father said we should come by."

"Finister's boy?"

The man nodded.

Elunara looked at Tulani, who had just finished nursing Darguni. "Hey, can you... go? This might take awhile."

"Alright. Grogek might be pleased to for his son to watch him work." She grinned.

Once Tulani was gone and Elunara shut the door, she turned to the two. They were looking at the pictures on her walls. 

"Have you been with all of these men?" The woman wondered. 

Elunara shrugged. "Most of them."

"Momma will love this picture." The man breathed. He touched it with a finger. 

"Please don't smudge it."

He nodded. He shuffled his feet and blushed. "Umm, Papa said that you could maybe help us. We're not having... relations as often as we keep thinking we should."

The woman blushed and crossed her arms with a frown. "You don't have to tell her that."

"Actually, he does. I can't help you if you're not honest with me. Were you virgins when you married?"

They both nodded.

Elunara sighed and rolled her eyes. "Traditionalists." She crossed her arms and leaned against a post. "I have several rules. First, you must always be honest with me. I can't help you if you lie. Second, you must listen to what I have to say, I'm more experienced than the both of you. Third, I have seen thousands of bodies, and I've had my hands and other parts on most of them, whatever you got is not new to me. Fourth, if you get insulting, I will shove your ass out the door, I do not care if you are dressed at the time or not."

"You want us to get undressed?" The woman sounded horrified.

"How am I to know what you are doing wrong if you sit and try to describe it to me? Rule number five, I am a hands on kind of person, if you don't like that, leave now. I will not have an unwilling participant on my hands."

"Let's try it Mayby. You never know if it'll help or not."

She snorted in defiance. "Says you."

Elunara shook her head. "I am a clinical kind of person; I could have been a healer. I see bodies as bodies first, sex objects second. I have no interest in you, you're not my type."

The woman frowned. "You have a... well..."

"A girlfriend?" Elunara shrugged. "She is my type. Not you. Once we are done here, I probably won't even acknowledge your existence outside of these doors. Unless you want me to. But I won't go out of my way to do it." She shook her head. "If you care for it, I can do drawings of you for the healer book. Or portraits at another time. For now, we are here to work on your sexual problems."

"Mayby, she knows things. She wouldn't have what she has if she didn't. Papa says she was a mission specialist who got people to do anything she wanted."

"This much is true." Elunara nodded. "My specialty, as it were, is to convince men to give me what I want through the use of my body. I have pulled secrets and toppled empires based on what I can do with my mouth alone. I have spent hundreds of hours studying men. What their bodies do and how to make them work for me. I can show you how to apply this knowledge to your own husband. And, even better, I can show you how to enjoy your own body. How to get what YOU want, through the use of fingers, hands and other body parts." She shrugged. "If you're insane enough to want to learn it, I can teach you a pressure point technique that will make him come in about three seconds. Don't recommend it for amateurs, because you can do some unpleasant damage." 

The man whimpered and covered his crotch. "Can we not?"

Elunara laughed. "I don't plan on it. But if she's desperate enough..."

"No." Mayby blushed. "No, not that." She put her hands on her cheeks. "The rest of it sounds fascinating though. Have you really been with that many men?"

"You have to be more specific sweetie; sex can mean a whole lot of different things. You've got standard in the hole, you've got anal, you've got hands, and you've got your mouth. There's an entire list of men I only gave hand jobs to." She shrugged again. "The list of men I've let have my entire body is surprisingly short. At least compared to the rest of it. Don't look so surprised, even whores have their standards."

"I didn't mean it!" Mayby grabbed her face again. "Did you have sex with Renwa?"

"Mayby!" 

"I've seen how he looks at her." She crossed her arms.

Elunara laughed. "Years ago he and I were what you'd call lovers. The he was my commanding officer. We recently worked out a few hanging details." 

"What does Commander Grogek think of it?"

"The same he thinks of all men I've been with. "Hah! She's still mine." She sighed. "Are we going to pick apart my love life, or are we going to help you with yours? Because I have better things, and better people I could be doing now."

"Just one more question."

"Mayby!"

"Just one!" She hissed at him. "Was it hard to separate yourself from the men you used?"

"I once snapped a man's neck while his face was still buried in my crotch." She shrugged. "Until I met Grogek, I felt no emotional attachment to any of the men I had been with."

The man was white in the face, but Elunara recognized the bloodlust in his wife's face. "Is that true?" She whispered. 

"Sorry sweetie, that takes years of training that I seriously doubt you've had."

"Damn." She whispered. Her husband just whimpered.

"So." He swallowed. "How do we go about us?"

"Your name?" Elunara cocked her head to the side.

"Tonas."

"And I figured you were Mayby."

"Don't laugh." She frowned. "I heard all of the names, especially after my mother called me "Mayby Baby" in front of my friends."

"My mother is Tyrande Whisperwind, and she named me after our goddess, Elune. I know all about stupid names."

They shared a smirk. "Alright. Show me how you kiss."

Their eyebrows shot up. "What does that have to do with it?" 

"Everything. If you're not even showing your passion in casual gestures, you can't get going in the bed. Now give us a kiss."

They nervously pecked each other on the lips.

"Seriously? Is that it?" Elunara shook her head. "That says "I just got back from relieving myself, but I'll greet you anyway." She pulled out a pair of chairs. "Sit. Let me set the mood." She waited until they sat in the chairs. "Alright, it's just the two of you, I'm not even here. We're back when you were dating, and you had already figured out you'd wanted to spend your lives together. He'd been away at work, and it'd just been so long since you had seen him. He's just arrived again and you're here together, all alone. He takes your hand." Elunara reached down and linked their hands. She adjusted their heads how she wanted. "You're still a little slow about it, but you've missed each other so much. Your eyes meet and it's as if the world itself agrees to this match. You lean in close, ready to enjoy each other. You come together and the kiss blossoms."

They timidly kissed each other, pressing only a little. They separated and blushed. 

Elunara smacked her forehead. "This is the best you give me? You kiss like children."

Mayby crossed her arms. "Oh, I'd like to see you do better."

Elunara shrugged and before either could react, she grabbed Maybe and kissed her soundly. She let her go and the woman sat there looking dazed, patting her hair. "That was more of what I was expecting." Elunara grinned.

"How do I do that?" Tonas looked amazed.

"Like this." Elunara grabbed him and repeated the demonstration.

Now they both looked dazed and confused.

"Don't tell me I broke you. We're going to be here all day."

"Well," Mayby finally said. "I guess I asked for that."

"You should try it on each other."

Elunara spent a fair amount of time teaching them how to kiss each other, a task they began to find more enjoyable as it went on.

"Alright, you can work on that on your own time. Right now, I think I should explain some basics of touch and sensation. You've already experienced what interesting sensations you can get out of lips. You can achieve some of the same stuff using your fingers on the lips as well. We used up some time on our little Q&A earlier, so I want to get in a few more pointers before you need to leave."

"When do we need to leave?" Tonas looked up. 

"Whenever Grogek is done for the day or Tulani wants to come home. Once it gets dark I throw you out the door unless you want to watch for more pointers."

Both of them blushed. "I imagine someone would be upset by that one." Mayby said weakly.

"Tulani might, but she'd just go hide in the baby's room. She's the shy one. Grogek and I..." She laughed. "You should ask some of the soldiers about the south orchard. Gerald would be the best one to ask about it, he sets up the betting pools."

"Betting pools?" 

"Well, after our little talk, he's stopped taking cuts from the pool. I don't mind the audience, I do mind the cheating. Anyhow," She shrugged. "What position I'll do next, who goes longest, that kind of thing. I can't believe the idiot forgot my hearing is quite able to pick up the things he says." She laughed.

"That's sick." Mayby looked pale.

"That's a matter of opinion, honey. I'm the one being watched. I find it fun."

"How was he cheating?" Tonas asked.

"He's been my mission spotter for years. In some missions I need someone on the outside to watch, make sure things are covered if I die or what have you. He's learned my methods."

"Has he ever... ya know."

"Nah." She waved a hand. "Well, one time he seriously thought I might... but I just used it to teach him a lesson in underestimating me."

"I can't tell if I should be repulsed or intrigued." Mayby frowned.

"Join the club." She shrugged. "Now, explain to me how you go about getting in the mood."

"Mood for what?" Mayby blinked at her.

Elunara slammed her hand on her forehead. "Sex."

"Oh. Well, we both get undressed and climb in bed."

"And then I get on top and..."

"Elune help me." She muttered. "Always?"

"Well, yes."

"Now I just wish Grogek was here. We'll work with what we've got. Have you seen each other naked at least?"

Mayby blushed. "Yes."

"Save me from innocence." She muttered. Elunara pointed at Tonas. "Naked. Now."

He jumped backwards. "What?"

"You heard me. Clothes. Lose them." 

He hesitated. 

"You want wild and unbridled passion? You will lose the clothes NOW."

He flushed from head to toe and began to undress. 

"Normally, the disrobing of your lover is a major part of this operation, but I'm cutting back on time here." 

"You're not going to..." Mayby bit her lip.

"Elune, no. I'm going to show you how to handle the male body." She eyed Mayby. "Then I show him how to handle the female body."

"Oh my." She whispered. She looked over at Tonas undressing and then looked away.

"Oh no." Elunara put her hands on Mayby's head. "You married the man; you get to watch him undress. How are you going to give him pleasure, if you can't even look at him?" Elunara shook her head. "I'm not going to teach you oral sex techniques today. Maybe another day."

"You mean... put my mouth... there?" She pointed.

"Put your mouth everywhere." Elunara whispered. 

Tonas stood there, his hands over his parts. 

Elunara smacked his hands. "No. You are a man, and you married this woman, you will be proud of what you got."

"But, umm you're here too."

"For all intents and purposes, I'm not here at all; it's just the two of you." She gave him an appraising look. "You've got nothing that impresses or offends me. You are about average by human standards." She smirked. "And about the size of one of Grogek's fingers."

Mayby's eyes went wide. 

Tonas frowned down at himself.

"As I said, you mean nothing to me. Now, Mayby, let me show you something fascinating. You better be watching." She pointed a finger at the blushing woman. "Now, if you place your fingers right here, at the base of the penis and stroke down the balls..." 

Tonas twitched as he got harder. 

"See? Now, let me show you a few other points that you can just use your fingers." She demonstrated a few of the more intimate pointes before she had Mayby use her own fingers. It took some effort, but she finally got the woman to actually focus on Tonas' dick, instead of shying away from it. 

"Now your turn, Mayby."

"My turn what?" She was having fun with making Tonas quiver.

"Clothes off. Now."

"But I..."

"You're going to torture your poor husband and then not even participate?" Elunara shook her head. "Cold."

"Oh... oh my."

"Sweetie, it's the same thing, I've seen it. Hell, I got it. Don't care. Your husband deserves fair play."

Mayby frowned. "But you're built like a goddess, I'm pudgy..."

Elunara shook her head. "Every woman is a goddess. Your husband loves you, he loves your body. I for one don't give a damn. Clothes. Now."

"Fine, fine." She started to undress as she muttered. 

"Now, see. This is what I like." She gestured to Tonas. "He can't tear his eyes off of you. He desires you, just as you are. This is a little strip tease. Go slower. Make him wait for it." Elunara coached and guided her hands. "He's not shying away from you." She whispered.

Mayby blushed as she followed instruction. She kept an eye on her husband and did see the lust in his eyes. When she tried to cover herself with her arms, Elunara smacked her hands away.

"Remember, we're working on fair play." Elunara circled them both. "Now, women have two obvious points to work on, and then a third hidden one. We'll start on obvious. The breasts." She held out a hand. 

Mayby flinched back. 

"Sweetie, it'll feel good. Just let me show him how to do it. He was quite sporting on his turn."

Mayby muttered and scooted forward. Elunara cupped her breasts and rubbed a thumb over the nipples. She considered and tried a few more things. "Answer me honestly, how does this feel?"

"Like you're touching my boobs." 

"Not sensitive? No feeling in the nipples?"

"No." 

Elunara considered. "Do they get hard in the cold?"

"Uhhh no." 

Elunara tapped a finger to her chin. "It's actually not uncommon for women with larger breast to lose sensation in their nipples. I bet when we really get you going there'll be room to work here, but I think its best we do prelim work and then move on." She looked over, "Okay, Tonas let's teach you how to be nice to boobs." After giving him the basics she moved on. "Now, there are several points on the neck and arms, as well as the waist, let's go over those for a little bit and get her started."

Once Elunara was satisfied with his progress, she gestured to a bed on the back wall. "Now, go sit down and we will continue." 

Mayby was flushed and wobbly, but she made it to the bed.

"This is about to get a little more awkward for you." Elunara looked in Mayby's face. "Do you trust me so far?"

Mayby nodded. "I think so."

"Tonas, come kneel down, I want you at eye level."

"What are you going to do?" Mayby wiggled in her seat.

"Legs apart, sweetie, we need to get in there."

"What?" She squeaked.

Elunara just looked at her. Tonas looked up from his spot. "What are we going to do?"

"I told you, we're working on hands, we'll do some of the more extreme things another time." 

"Extreme?" Mayby squeaked.

Elunara shrugged. "It will seem so, but it's all tame I assure you."

"Al-alright." She cautiously moved her legs apart. 

Elunara stooped down. "Welcome to your anatomy lesson. This is where you've been sticking your dick. Maybe you've even used your hand to guide yourself. But this is where the magic happens. Underneath this hair, there's a series of folds and lips." She used her hand to demonstrate. Mayby wiggled in her hand. "There's this little button that causes all kinds of fun sensations." She demonstrated again and Mayby gasped. "Try not to touch it directly at this time. It can be a little painful to the uninitiated. But you can apply plenty of pressure and work around it." She demonstrated again. 

They worked for a fair bit of time, Elunara showing Tonas how to use his fingers to full effect. Mayby was wet and desperate by time they were through. Tonas was also showing signs of duress. 

"Now we work on the finish, we're not going to go for the usual. Tonas, stand up and get in between."

"From standing?"

"From standing." She nodded. "You've got each other worked up, now slip in and start your work. I'll help guide you from there."

She helped him with hand to hip placements and watched his method of slipping in. He began to jackrabbit and Mayby began to call out. Elunara shook her head and stopped them both. 

"Ok, stop faking the vocals. It's not a turn on, it's a distraction."

"I wasn't faking." 

Elunara just stared at her. She turned to Tonas "You, it's not a race, it's not a competition, don't start off so damned fast. You want to build, not strip." She grabbed his hips and moved him back and forth. "Like this, build your speed slowly, and give the hips a little workout. Don't go straight out. You want to move, give some thrust, upwards motions. Try to rub against walls. Try again. And you, if you don't mean it, don't do it. Soft gasps and moans mean a hell of a lot more than random screams. React, don't predict." Elunara nodded. "Begin."

"There we go, much better. Here, let me guide you." She reached for his hand and repositioned it on Mayby's breast. "Cup, rub, enjoy the feeling on your hand. Stay gentle, even as you pick up speed. There you go. Lean down, go for it, use your tongue like I showed you on your fingers."

Mayby gasped. 

"Now try to go in for the big finish." Elunara whispered.




For the Whored Ch. 032



When Mayby began to buck, Tonas collapsed on top of her. They started to separate, but Elunara put a hand on Tonas' back. "No, now we work on after care. You want to cuddle. Yes, you're sweaty and sticky and have been at this all damned day, but that cuddle helps. It makes it worth it. Then you roll, and tug her with you. 

Tonas rolled and pulled Mayby under his arm.

"Couples, who do the rabbit, tend to breed like rabbits but never actually enjoy each other. You don't want to be rabbits, you want to be lovers." 

She walked off and left them on the bed. Elunara went back to working on her Portraits, while the couple behind her murmured to each other. She ignored them until Tonas touched her on the shoulder. She looked up. 

"Thank you." 

She shrugged. "Whatever. If you want a portrait, just let me know." She let them get dressed and leave before she got up and walked down to the training yard. Grogek was sitting on the side next to Tulani. He held Darguni in his arms. Elunara climbed in his lap and took Darguni. He laughed and wrapped his arms around her. 

"Something the matter?"

"I just coached the most boring couple in the history of sex." She muttered.

Tulani giggled. "That bad?" 

"Awful." 

She cuddled Darguni. "You now, we haven't done the south orchard in too long." She looked up at Grogek. 

"Tomorrow?" 

"Tomorrow."

Tulani smiled. "I'll work in the room then."

"Sorry." Elunara frowned. "I haven't made time for you, lately. I'm so sorry."

Tulani laughed. "Then maybe day after tomorrow?" She winked. "However, I do not wish to have an audience."

Elunara ran her fingers down one of Tulani's horns. "You know I'd never embarrass you like that."

"That's why I love you." Tulani leaned over and brushed her lips over Elunara's.

Elunara wrapped an arm around Tulani's waist and pulled the Draenei into her lap. Tulani wrapped her arms around Elunara's waist and laid her head on Elunara's unoccupied shoulder. Tulani ran her hand down the baby's back. Grogek wrapped his arms around all of them.

"Now, see... that's why everyone is jealous of Commander Grogek." Linal grinned. "Two women at once."

Grogek growled and Linal jumped backwards. Elunara laughed. "Cuddly, yet terrifying. I have good taste." She nodded. 

"You have taste alright." Vivi giggled. She bent down and ran a finger on the baby's cheek. "He's always so quiet. It's bizarre."

"I know." Elunara frowned. "It's like he knows more than we do."

"Well, he was born out of time."

Elunara nodded. "Hey, Linal. Tell Gerald "south orchard tomorrow". He'll know what I'm talking about."

Linal nodded and left.

Vivi watched him go. "What does that mean?" She raised an eyebrow.

Grogek laughed.

Elunara giggled. "Just a demonstration."

"Elune save me." Vivi rolled her eyes and joined Linal.

Grogek watched Gerald's expression and grinned. There would be plenty of entertainment for his Elunara tomorrow. After a round of kisses and affection, he disentangled himself from his family. 

"ALRIGHT YOU WORTHLESS SWINE, BACK IN FORMATION!" He bellowed.

Elunara sighed. "Why do I get all excited watching him abuse soldiers?"

Tulani giggled. "Because you're a vicious little she wolf?" She offered helpfully.

Elunara smacked her arm. "Don't you start."



For the Whored Ch. 033



The next day, Elunara fought the urge to run to the south orchard. Instead she and Grogek walked hand in hand to the center of their favorite spot. Grogek sat next to the tree and leaned back. She cuddled up next to him. He laid a hand on her hip and rubbed. 

"How long do you plan on waiting?"

"Not much longer. Mostly I'm trying to calm myself down."

"Oh?" 

"I'm so excited with anticipation; I might wear myself out early. I plan on beating past records."

"What is our longest record?"

"Five hours."

"Goal?"

"Six."

Vivi snuck up behind the three guys making their way to the hill. Using her Night Elf abilities she was able to reach the hill first. She heard Grogek ask about a goal, and Elunara's answer of six. She wondered what that could mean. The three men reached the hill and lay on their bellies.

"Good, we haven't missed anything." Gerald nodded.

"Missed what?" Asked Vivi.

He was good, but she saw the shocked look, as much as he tried to hide it. "Night elves will be the death of me." Gerald whispered.

"What are you three doing here?"

"SHH. She many like an audience, but she prefers to not hear them killing the mood."

Two more guys headed up the hill and one pointed at the box of drinks he'd brought up.

"You're drinking?"

"Well, yeah." Gerald looked sheepish. "Look, unless you're here to watch, leave. I barely made it out with my balls intact the last time I made her mad."

"You make a spectacle of this?" She was appalled. 

"Vivi!" Elunara called. "Shut up already."

Vivi stuck her head over the hill. Elunara waved. "You're killing my buzz, so go away or shut up."

"I told you." Gerald muttered.

"Wait." Steve stared. "She knows we're up here?"

"I am so dead." Gerald whimpered.

"The next person to interrupt" called Grogek. "Gets Latrine duty for a month."

"HE knows we're up here?" Steve squeaked, before running away.

Gerald groaned and Vivi snapped her mouth shut.

Elunara sighed. "I am totally going to have to make her pay for that."

"That will be fascinating to see."

She laughed. "You know..." She tugged his shirt off. "The first time I saw you, I wanted to eat you up." She ran her fingers down his chest. "My mission was to seduce Grommash, but damn you were better." She raked her teeth on a nipple. "I wanted to get you in my room, but I knew a prize as fine as this one required a lot more work. So, I had to wait." She gently licked the same rock hard nipple. "I don't like waiting." She licked his chest. "All those beautifully sculpted muscles." She dragged her nails down his arms. "That chest, that back..." She dragged her teeth against his shoulder. "I love me a good set of shoulders." She rocked on his crotch, knowing he would be hard as a rock and ready when she wanted him. 

"I just wanted to taste you so badly." She dragged her teeth on that sensitive spot in his neck

"Is that so?" He growled. 

She licked his neck. 

He grabbed her hips and shoved her downwards. She rubbed her crotch against his pantsed erection. "Well, I thought you were a witch." He raked his teeth down her throat. "I saw you had eyes on Grommash, but I knew you looked elsewhere." He ran his tongue up her throat. "You looked right at me, as a predator to her prey. I'd seen your kind before. I'd slain your kind before... but you I feared." He yanked off her top and ravaged her breasts with his teeth and tongue. 

"Even when Grommash tried to rip me apart, I knew you were out there, trying to save me."

"I knew you'd set it up, knew you wanted it. But still I feared." He pulled her face down and ravaged her mouth. They tore at each other. "Torn apart, limp as a ragdoll and still you were the most terrifying thing I'd seen. No use of your limbs, and still you had fight."

"Oh, I will always have fight." She growled. She sunk her teeth into his shoulder. 

"That's for damned sure." He growled back. "You are a vicious little she-wolf, and I am honored you have chosen me as your life mate." He seized her mouth with his own, his hands coming up her back. One hand slid down into her pants, the other around her neck. He pressed his mouth to hers, their tongues danced and mated in their mouths. He pressed a finger into her ass and rubbed her crotch against his own. 

She dragged her nails down his back and dove into his mouth. She nipped at his mouth, her teeth and tongue wrapping around his fangs. She moved her head and worked her way down his chin and to his neck. She feasted on the beads of sweat that worked their way down. She moved further down, scooting back. Her belly rubbed against his cock as she ran her teeth and tongue across his chest and nipples. She slurped her way down his belly. She yanked open his pants and let his dick pop free. She licked from the base to the tip. 

She heard the sound of gold changing hands. Her ear twitched as she realized they had a pair of visitors off from the soldiers.

She licked the length of him, over and over. Working her way around with her tongue. She teased him with her lips, but held back from anything more. She enjoyed the taste of him, the feel of his dick on her tongue. She cupped his balls, and teased him with little flicks of her tongue on his balls. She scooted down and slipped her lips over the side of his balls. He groaned and dug his nails into her back. She licked and teased him for quite awhile. He was so crazy with it; she got tears out of him. She purred her way around him, even biting his thighs

"If you don't release me now, I may go insane." He growled.

"I was waiting to see how long it took you." She giggled.

"I have seen evil, and it is you." He snarled.

With a laugh, she slipped her mouth over him. She sucked him quick and hard and He grabbed her shoulder, digging his nails into flesh. She slurped him down in greedy sucks, her butt doing an involuntary happy wiggle.

She stood up and slid her pants down. He grabbed them and tossed them away. She laughed. He grabbed her by the hips and picked her up. She wrapped her legs over his shoulder and behind his back and leaned her arms against the tree. 

He licked her wetness. Using his fangs, he teased the inside of her thighs which sent her into little shrieks. 

"Mmmm" he purred against her crotch. "Two can play at this game." He pressed his finger back into her ass and held on to one of her legs with his other hand. He began to tease and taunt using his mouth and tongue. Giving her small licks and shifting back and forth with his fangs. She giggled and struggled as she gripped his shoulders. He adjusted his hand so that he had two fingers buried in her front and one in the back. She arched against him, but still he was slow and deliberate. When she was slick and desperate, and he could feel himself hardening again, did he pick up speed. She dripped down his hand.

She bent backwards, her hands on his legs, she pulled herself off and stood on her hands, grinning at him.

"Oh, now you're just showing off."

"Sweetheart, displaying your massive dick for all to see, that's showing off." 

"You know what I'd rather be doing with this massive dick."

She bent her elbows and slipped her mouth over him, sucking as she straightened her elbows. He raised an eyebrow. 

"Now that is talent." He laughed. 

She dropped down and sat between his legs. "I'm starting to drip on myself. That just feels weird."

"And I haven't even filled you yet." He grinned. He reached out and tugged her towards him. 

"Nah, I want it like this." She turned around, gave him a look and then slid down on his dick. 

"Mmm" He shifted her a little, knowing what angle she wanted. He was sorely tempted to call out, let them know that they better be paying attention, but he knew it was unnecessary. He cupped her breast with one hand and moved the other to her crotch. He rubbed her as she slid up and down the length of him. Grogek helped her slide up and down using his fingers on her pussy. He knew she enjoyed the pressure, and the sensation wasn't bad on his end either. He buried his face in her neck and hair, scraping his teeth and tongue on her neck and back. 

She picked up speed and her nails dug into his legs. When she pressed down and clamped, he exploded inside. It was a fascinating bit of acrobatics to watch her lift one leg and spin so she was facing him. He groaned at the motion.

"You are such a show off." He muttered. 

"You get a moment's reprieve, while I work up my next act."

"Oh, and what do you plan?"

"You'll see." She propped her arms on his chest and leaned forward and placed a soft kiss on his mouth. "You're just so damned pretty."

He barked a laugh. "Oh, the humiliation, should anyone hear you say such a thing."

She giggled. She continued to stare and examine his face. "It's true though. That nice brown skin, those gorgeous eyes that I like to lose myself in. Who else looks like you?"

"Probably half of Warsong."

She shook her head. "There's nobody like you. The Warsong are known for their brutality. Sure, you've got that, but there's a kindness in you. A gentleness. It's fascinating. I scored myself Quite the prize."

He responded in orcish.

You've got that nice, huge body, those rippling muscles, strong hands," She grinned. "And massive dick. Can't forget that one."

"As if you'd let me." 

She threw one leg over his shoulder and leaned back. "Now we party." 

Her next move left him in complete shock. She was able to kick the ground and the tree simulataneously, causing him to tumble forward. She skidded in the grass, him still buried in her. She shifted sideways, looping a leg down behind one of his. His hands stopped him from going too far. He looked around in shock and began to laugh. 

"NOW who is showing off?" He laughed. "I see what my little she wolf wants." He wrapped an arm around the leg on his shoulder and buried himself deeper in her. 

Elunara was pleased to discover that no one called that move. Her fingers dug into the earth as Grogek began to pump himself in and out of her. He dropped one hand down and grabbed her wrist. He pounded himself in and out while she writhed in pleasure. She gripped his leg with hers. Her shoulder bit into the ground, but she loved how deep he could bury himself in her. When she finally clamped down, he gave up and released with her. 

He pulled out and let her leg go. She lay there in the grass, her legs splayed out beautifully. Unable to help himself, he buried his face in her crotch. Using his fangs he tormented and teased the inside of her thighs. She shrieked and giggled. He slipped one finger in and rocked it in and out. He went for the second and propped himself up on his elbow. She purred and grabbed him by the fang. She devoured his mouth and their juices. He continued to work his fingers and she snuggled up against him. 

"I always love the feel of you." She ran her fingers down his chest.

"I can't get enough of you, even when I can't keep up with you."

"Oh, no one can keep up with me, Sugarbear. That's why I like my toys." 

He leaned down and licked her nipple. "I love when you have your toys. You always maul me after."

"Mmm you know, I wonder if we could bring a few toys in on other days."

"What do you mean?" He slid his fingers around her parts, just playing with whatever he felt.

"Well, you know I quite enjoyed having two men at once. That was lovely."

He examined his slick fingers. "However are you going to pull that off again?"

She reached up and took his hand and sucked the wetness off his fingers. "I'll think of something." 

He grinned. "You always think of something."

"Maybe I should get a sign."

He laughed. "Well, Renwa might not like that."

"Well, he liked the other thing."

"The sign."

She stood up and stretched. "I should get a sign." She looked back at him. "Not like advertisement, but a privacy sign. Cause if I got certain people in, I don't want them worrying about unwanted visitors."

"Would be a good idea then." He rolled on his back and just watched her. "What are you up to?"

"I dunno, just thinking." She tapped a finger on her chin. She stooped down between his legs. Just when he thought she'd lick him, she slid her breasts around his dick and began to move up and down. He groaned. "I don't really have large ones, but a sensation is a sensation." She grinned. 

"Some days I wonder how you haven't broken my dick yet."

She straightened up. "Hey, I'm always careful. I need that thing." In one swift movement she was above him and then sliding down. He groaned and grabbed her hips. 

"You're going to make me sore."

"I went MONTHS without this. I'm going until you cry for mercy."

He narrowed his eyes. "I do not seek mercy."

She gave him a grin that made him shrink back. "Well, you are the one who calls me a vicious she-wolf."

"Oh, shit."

By time she finished with him, he was bruised, battered and exhausted. He was also certain he would have several painful scrapes to deal with tomorrow during training. Seven. They had given a solid seven hours of sexcapades. They had destroyed each other, and had limped along back to the barracks room. Tulani was in bed, and they collapsed into their own bed in a tangle.



For the Whored Ch. 034



Tulani had begun to whimper and Elunara crawled down into her bed. She wrapped her arms around Tulani. "Shh, don't cry sweetheart. I'm here." Tulani turned over and wrapped her arms around Elunara's waist. Darguni began to cry, and Elunara winced. Tulani was still trapped in her nightmare. With regret, she slipped out of bed and ran for the nursery. She picked Darguni out of bed and managed to get his diaper changed. She frowned, he was still crying. She tried to rock him and soothe him, but he didn't want anything of hers. She sighed and wished she could nurse. She looked out and saw Tulani thrashing back and forth.

Elunara sighed. Grogek was still out, a fact with surprised her. He was usually a light sleeper. She winced as she felt all the aches and pains of earlier. Without a choice, Elunara climbed in Tulani's bed with Darguni. Sensing food was near he became more insistent. She tried desperately to wake Tulani, but she only clung to Elunara with tears streaming down her face. At a complete loss, she tugged at Tulani's dress. This caused Tulani to freak out and try to hide. 

Elunara placed Darguni in the bed next to Grogek, which seemed to temporarily calm the baby. She pulled Tulani in her lap and tried to wake the sleeping woman from her nightmare. With a sigh, she pulled Tulani up into her lap and was able to carefully dislodge one of her breasts from the dress. Scooping up the baby, she was able to get him sucking. Elunara let out a sigh of relief when he latched on. The sensation caused Tulani to calm almost instantly. Elunara got the three of them adjusted and laid her head against the wall. The baby began to whimper again and remembering watching Tulani, Elunara switched him over. 

Tulani woke in confusion. Darguni was in her arms and her top was pulled down. She frowned down at the sleeping Infant. "What in the world?"

Elunara blinked. "Darguni was hungry. Sorry," She closed her eyes again. 

"I did not wake up?"

"Nobody did." She mumbled. 

"Oh, I'm so sorry." She cradled the baby and climbed out of bed. 

Elunara slid down. "S'OK, got to pretend I know what I'm doin'. You were trapped in nightmare."

Elunara rolled over and went to sleep. Grogek sat up and stretched his neck. "Ow." He muttered. He blearily looked down at Elunara in the little bed, then up at Tulani. "Nightmare?"

Tulani sighed. "Apparently." She looked at Grogek. Normally he was up first and getting ready for the day. He sat on the bed, scratched and bruised and looking terrible. "Are you alright?"

"Wildcat." He snorted. "She went from vicious wolf, to raging wildcat in a turn." He stretched and whimpered. "Never challenge her." He got out of bed with a wince.

Tulani shook her head and took Darguni back to his bed. She grinned at the lopsided diaper and straightened it. She went back out and Grogek was staring at his scrapes in the mirror. 

He touched one and hissed. "I would cancel training, but I'd like to save face."

Tulani walked over and laid her hands on Grogek's shoulder. She concentrated in the way Ina had shown her. It took more effort than she realized and only managed to do a little bit of repair.

"Ahhh, well that takes the sting out of it at least."

"Sorry, I haven't had time to train with Ina."

He patted her on the head. "It's ok."

"I am not a child." She muttered.

Grogek shrugged. "This I know. I did not intend to treat you such. How would you like me to act?"

At first Tulani thought he was being rude, but then she realized it was complete honesty. "I haven't decided." She finally said.

"We haven't exactly discussed our actions to each other. Aside from the fact we love the same woman."

Tulani laughed. "It is because of that same woman that we have had... intimate touches, and yet don't really speak with one another."

Grogek laughed. "That's one way to put it." He watched Elunara sleep. 

"I take it back." She said softly.

He just looked at her.

"You do not treat me like a child. You were being sweet. What I said was unkind. I am sorry." Tulani sighed. "Often, I feel like I am still trying to find my place.

He shrugged and wrapped his arms around her. "I do not think of you like I do Elunara. You are hers, so you are mine. I care for you. I know you were hurt and still tender in the heart. I do not wish to frighten you or hurt you again." He kissed the top of her head and turned back to the mirror.

Tulani was sitting at her desk, quietly sewing when Elunara finally woke up. She groaned as she turned over and stared at the ceiling.

"I'm an idiot." She groaned.

Tulani laughed. "How long were you out there?"

"Seven hours." She whimpered.

Tulani raised an eyebrow. "Worth it?" 

"The body is telling me to ask next week." She stretched and felt a pop in her back. "What time is it?"

"Around one or two."

She groaned again. "I can't believe I slept so late."

"How long were you trying to deal with Darguni last night?"

Elunara looked up and blinked. "What?" Realization dawned on her. "Oh, I have no idea."

Tulani sat down her sewing and walked over. She knelt down and kissed Elunara. "I'm sorry you had to deal with that."

"Nah, it's ok. I don't envy you so much anymore." She laughed. Placing a hand on Tulani's cheek, she frowned. "I was supposed to give today to you, wasn't I?"

Tulani just laughed. "It's quite fine. You take your recovery time."

"Where is Grogek?"

"He went on to training."

"Oh man, he is probably NOT happy with me."

"He may or may not have been cursing your name."

She sighed and sat up. She whimpered and rubbed her shoulder. Tulani put her hands on Elunara and concentrated again. Elunara gave a small sigh. "Oh, that takes some of the ache out."

"It's the best I can do." 

Elunara leaned over and kissed the top of her head. "It's good." She stretched her shoulder. "At least I can avoid a trip to Ina. I'm going to go run Mrs. Finister her portrait. I'll be back in a little bit. Might swing by and see how Grogek is holding up."

She grabbed the wrapped package and headed out. Mrs. Finister adored her new portrait and immediately began to bicker with Mr. Finister as to who had the best one. Elunara shook her head as she walked away. She spotted Mayby flailing her arms and wandered over. She followed the woman into her home. 

"Where's Tonas?" Elunara looked around.

"He's working right now." Maybe began fiddling with pots and pans. "We saw you... yesterday." She blurted. 

Elunara grinned and leaned back. "I thought I heard you on the eastern ridge."

Mayby turned an interesting shade of scarlet. "You... heard."

"I hear lots of things." She tugged an ear. "Big ones."

"Oh... I'm sorry!" Maybe bit her lip.

Elunara laughed. "We had a crowd of about 17 on the western side. Give or take, depending on the time frame."

Mayby blanched. "I couldn't imagine..."

With a shrug she picked up a figurine and played with it. "I like the audience, and Grogek always gives me what I want. I'm just spoiled like that."

"You weren't kidding..." Maybe swallowed hard. "When you said he was enormous."

Elunara laughed. "He's just my size."

"How did you... go so long?"

"Years of training. Humans don't live long enough to do it."

"Oh." She fidgeted. "Well, after... your coaching, we have been doing so much better on intimacy, that when we heard someone say something about the south orchard... we decided to go peek. We suddenly know why you are the one to ask." She wiped her hands on a dishtowel, over and over again. "Can you continue to teach us?" She blurted.

"Sure. Just work around whatever I have going. I really need to make a sign." Elunara tapped her chin. 

"Why do you not charge for it?"

"Because charging makes me uncomfortable." She shrugged and put the figurine down. "I prefer to ask for useful favors. I don't know what you two can offer me, and I don't particularly care. However, if someday in the future, you do have something to offer, I may be inclined to ask." She stood up and held out a hand. "Is that an acceptable deal?"

Mayby looked at her hand for awhile before shaking it. "That sounds fine." Mayby stepped back and eyed Elunara. "What have you asked for in the past?"

"Paper, pencils. Other art supplies, mostly. When I'm drawing attractive men... well my payment is usually having them for entertainment, if you get my meaning." She shrugged. "I never ask for more than someone can reasonably pay."

"Alright then."

"If you don't mind, I'd like to go see my husband now."

"Aren't you exhausted?" Mayby stared. 

"I might have gotten a second wind." She winked.

On the way to the training yard, she didn't feel it, but she wasn't about to say it out loud. She winced as she rubbed her shoulder. Predictably, Grogek was giving them all hell as he ran them through their paces. She let out a whistle and all looked up. Grogek grinned and after a snarl to the man he was currently terrorizing, he made his way over. She grabbed him by a fang and kissed him soundly. He ran his hands down her hips.

"Are you trying to kill me?" He murmured.

"Just thought you'd appreciate the show. Though, if you don't know the location of a good hot springs, I'm going to make Ina run us one of her muscle baths."

"Gods, that sounds amazing. See if you can."

"On my list."

Tulani appeared with Darguni and they switched their attention to him. He was sucking on his fist and drooling down Tulani's back. Elunara took him and cuddled him.

A commotion caused everyone's attention to shift focus. Grogek and Elunara looked at each other before heading out. It wasn't until she got to the edge of town that she realized she still held Darguni and left Tulani behind. Grogek shifted to stand between them and the danger. Elunara recognized the green orc on the wolf first.

"Holy monkey damn its Thrall."

"Thrall?" Grogek looked down. "THE Thrall?"

Renwa and Jordan appeared at her side. "What is Thrall doing approaching an Alliance camp?" Renwa frowned as he stepped forward. 

Thrall came to a halt, but he was not alone. He was followed by Aggra, and two brown orcs that Elunara did not recognize.

"I see the rumors are true." Thrall called out. "You have a brown Orc in your town."

Elunara stepped forward. "Hello Thrall, it's been awhile."

He narrowed his eyes. "Elunara. I should have known you'd be banished out here."

She snorted. "I was not banished, I was assigned." She cocked her head to the side. "Wait, no. Not that much different."

Grogek frowned. "You've been with this Orc?"

"A really long time ago." She eyed Aggra. "Before he was married."

Grogek laughed. "You really have tried everything."

Darguni began to fuss and she rubbed his back and cooed to him. Elunara looked up at Grogek. "He thinks I used magic to get in his bed."

"You are magic." Grogek grinned.

Thrall watched the exchange back and forth with some interest. It was then that he noticed the object in Elunara's arms. "Is that... a child?" 

Elunara shifted him so that Darguni could face Thrall. "No, it's a cat. Of course it's child." She rolled her eyes.

"His skin...that fang." Thrall walked forward in amazement. "You... and him?" Thrall pointed to Grogek.

"Your brain is mush today isn't it?" She snorted. "Yes, I... Elunara the whore had a child by Grogek the brown Orc. Was that simple enough for you?"

Grogek snorted a laugh. "I take it you did not part friends."

"Well, he wasn't bad. He was leader of the Horde at the time, and I was trying to get some intell on the guards and things. He was a tough sell, but I finally got what I wanted out of him, and it was all useless. Leader he may be, but he already had others working on the minutiae by then. He couldn't give me anything I didn't already have. The Tauren was better, but not my much. Too bad about his death." She tapped her chin. "I liked him. He was a softy too."

"Are you saying you had sex with my husband?" Aggra raised an eyebrow. 

"Before he met you." She waved her hand "Though I have to say, he has REALLY filled out since then. Yummy."

Aggra narrowed her eyes.

"Well, this is all really fascinating, but didn't we have a purpose?" One of the brown Orcs interrupted. 

Thrall shook his head and continued to stare at the baby. "We have come from Frostfire Ridge." He looked around. "Word is, you managed to steal away a brown Orc from Grommash's hold. We came to investigate these claims. This is Durotan and Draka." 

Elunara's eyebrows shot up. "Well, that's just adorable."

Thrall glared at her. 

"My lips are sealed." She grinned. "Or otherwise occupied." 

Tulani arrived at last, huffing and puffing. "You..." She gasped. "Move... too fast."

"Sorry sweetie, I'd forgotten about the baby." Elunara handed him over. 

"Does he only have the one fang?" Aggra asked. 

"Yes."

"How old is he?" She moved in to examine the child.

"Not quite a month."

Draka's eyebrows shot up. "That is strange."

Eunara sighed. "I finally get people to stop using "whore" and they replace it with "strange". Seriously?"

Aggra narrowed her eyes at Elunara. 

Grogek just laughed and dropped a hand on her shoulder. He said something in orcish that all orcs present staring at them both in complete shock. She laughed. 

"I think you just broke their brains, my love." She grabbed him by the tusk and yanked him down. 

After they broke apart he murmured to her. "Are you trying to snap my neck? I'm still sore from yesterday."

"I'm a hopeless show off." She shrugged. She turned to Renwa. "I think we should find a location to seat our guests. Else wise, we're just going to stand here like idiots, and my legs are a little sore."

"Right. My office." He gestured. "If you will all follow me."

"I'll just go back home." Tulani said. 

"No. Follow. He might be useful."

Tulani struggled to keep up, so Elunara took Darguni back for the time being. "How would an infant be useful?"

"The Frostwolf clan is strong on family. We can use this."

Once room was made, and chairs brought in. Everyone sat. Elunara opted to stand beside Grogek, leaning against him. He casually wrapped an arm around her waist, his hand resting on her hip. Tulani sat behind both of them, holding the baby. 

Thrall was the first to speak. "Tell me how this came to be."

"Elunara was sent into Grommash's stronghold, with the goal of seducing Grommash or any of those around him in order to gain information. She was able to send us in detail schematics of the fortress, as well as detailed information on future raids and positioning of troops and other necessary information to continue our hold here." Renwa nodded at Elunara. "Her work is flawless."

"I infiltrated the fortress based on the premise that I had been left for dead, and willing to give my... special talents to the Iron Horde. Took a little to get set up, but once I did, the fortress was my oyster."

Durotan eyed Grogek. "And you're fine with this?"

Grogek grinned. "I've had time to... come to terms with it."

"What is his role in this?" Draka asked.

"I worked on Grommash for months, and while he gave me more and more access as I pleased him, he wasn't cracking. I finally slit the throat of an attempted assassin which had Grommash presenting me with Grogek as a present." She grinned at him.

"She was the most terrifying thing I'd ever met. She showed no fear, not even with a blade at her throat. Any threat of bodily harm meant nothing to her, and it was as if she had the entire fortress on puppet strings. Even when an idiotic goblin almost killed us with that canister he was messing with, she jumped in between him and my blade. She cared not for her own safety, but she was determined to save the goblin."

"I still don't know why I did that." She muttered.

"Grommash made him your servant, and instead of what I expected... you surprised me. You were kind to him. Treated him like your friend." Grogek shook his head. "Then I was just fascinated. I knew you were up to something, I knew you lied through your teeth without blinking. Those Alliance of yours didn't drop you there to die; they placed you in front of us, a trap waiting to be sprung."

"All I had to do was to wait around and do what I do best. As I earned Grommash's respect and pleasure, I asked for a room of my own. Then the men to be sent to my room, and all the paper and pencils I could have. I began to draw them. I drew portraits, and then I told them to strip down. I quite enjoy drawing naked men." She winked at the visiting Orcs. "Then I pleasured them. As they came to me, to be drawn and to be touched, they began to answer my questions. They gave me the things I wanted and needed. They explained layouts, details, information. I pumped their dicks while they worked their mouths." She laughed. "I was living in my own all you could eat buffet." She licked her lips. "They all have quite the wonderful place in my collection."

"Some of those are on our walls." Grogek grinned. 

"Only the best ones." She ran a finger lightly over a scratch on his arm. "Did I do that?" She frowned. 

Only she knew that he winced. "Yes, I forgot exactly what point they all individually happened." 

She bent down and brushed a kiss. "I'm sorry."

He rolled his shoulder. "You fight like a demon."

"And you're ok with this?" Aggra asked. "That she'd had so many men?" Aggra's eyes flicked to Thrall and back.

Grogek barked a laugh. "She chews em up and spits them out like fika plant." He wrapped both arms around her and pulled her into his lap. "She's my vicious little she-wolf. What she wants, she gets."

Eyebrows shot up all over the place. Tulani quietly giggled. 

Thrall frowned. "Why does your handmaiden bring in your child?"

Elunara pointed at Thrall. "Don't make assumptions, former Warchief. Tulani is my lover, and the four of us are a family. If Grogek and I are in question, then Tulani should know."

Thrall sputtered. Draka looked incensed. "You hold another lover while you have a husband?"

Grogek began to shake with laughter. Elunara yelped as he squeezed her sore body too tightly. 

Renwa just laid his head on his desk. "Don't get them started, please?" He asked weakly.

"Honey child," Elunara began, as she worked herself free from Grogek. "I hold as many lovers as are willing to be in the same room at once. I am the goddess of sex, and I can and will have any man naked in my room as I want."

"You got her started." Renwa muttered as he laid his head on his desk.

"My entire life revolves around my body. What I want to do with it, what I need to satisfy myself. I love to draw naked men, but even more, I love to wrap my tongue and lips around them." She sauntered over to Thrall and ran her fingers on an arm. "I do anything to see those strong shoulders, that built muscle, and those rippling backs." She eyed Durotan. "Even when you're completely covered like this, I can see it. I can measure you without ever taking off your pants. I could draw you, every part of you." She purred. She flicked her gaze to Draka. "I'm not picky. If the body is good enough, I'll give women a shot." She cocked her head to the side. "In fact, women are a new subject for me. I need more practice." She winked. 

"Thirty years I have been exploring the male body, and I know every square inch, yet still I am not satisfied. I must get my hands on them. It's not enough to draw them, I need to have them. My little toys" She wandered over and sat on Renwa's desk. "Oh, I try to not leave broken hearts behind. Unless they're a target, then I go into it letting them full well know. I will pleasure you, I will release you, but don't expect much after that." She shrugged. "I crave their bodies, I want to touch them, I want to lick them, I want to do things to them that they could not have imagined. And I do this every chance I get."




For the Whored Ch. 034



She gestured to Grogek. "He knows this. Hell, he likes to watch, maybe even join. He has a few times." She grinned. "This whole town is where I have been stuck since I brought Grogek in. Renwa here won't assign me out." She frowned back at him. "Don't give me that same shtick about having nothing to send me on. You and I used to be pretty good about inventing new ways to help the Alliance." She turned back to their guests. "So, instead I pick among the soldiers. I bring them in to my room and I have my fun. Did you know, this entire town, held their collective breaths until Darguni was born? No one knew who the father might be. Still, Grogek did not care."

"I know you. I see you." He said.

"Here's a fun little trivia for you..."

"Elunara," Renwa muttered. "Do you have an off button?"

"Sweetie, if I did, you'd have found it years ago."

"Perhaps we could tape your mouth shut?" 

She blinked in surprised and considered. "I could use that. Groggy, take a note... restraints." 

He licked his lips. "I'll have a chat with the blacksmith."

She nodded. "Anywho, yesterday, Grogek and I participated in some highly aggressive, fascinating sexual exploits for a good seven hours straight, while a not so secretive group of soldiers watched from the hills."

The guests eyes went wide and they looked back and forth to each other.

Renwa sighed. "How many this time?"

Elunara shrugged. "Approximately 17 at the height. They came and went throughout the day. Though Vivi wouldn't shut up." She turned to Grogek. "Remind me to smack Vivi."

"I had her running loaded sprints." He grinned. 

Elunara snorted.

"This is SICK" Aggra stood up. 

"No." Everyone turned to Tulani. She smiled serenely as she nursed Darguni. "That is our Elunara. Just because you don't understand her, doesn't mean you get to judge her." She ran a finger along the baby's cheek. "Elunara is the nicest, kindest person I have ever met. She likes to make everyone think she only cares about sex, but that's just so terribly wrong. She cares about everybody." She looked up and smiled softly. 

"She makes us think. She makes us question ourselves, and come out the better for it. I have seen her give refuge to lovers ashamed of themselves. I have seen her return the lives of the destroyed. Once, she bought clothes for some women who had been freed from slavery. When those women turned on her, she still didn't want to let them know she was the one who gave them the clothes they wore. She is a kind and loving person." Tulani stuck her tongue out at Elunara. "She just doesn't want you to know that, because she thinks it gives her the upper hand."

Tulani shifted Darguni to the other side. "Elunara once believed her emotions to be dead. But she's so warm and loving, that I wonder if she was just afraid to use them."

Elunara propped her hands on her hips. "Well, you just killed my speech."

"Thank the Gods for you Tulani." Renwa sighed.

Grogek barked in laughter again. "Our Elunara is a vicious little she-wolf. Whatever her hobbies are, she will always be our Elunara."

"You two are making me all gushy."

Grogek grinned. "I thought after yesterday you'd at least give that a day of rest!" He proclaimed.

Durotan shook his head. "We are here to find out how an Iron Horde orc came to be in the hands of your "Alliance"." He growled. "Not to hear your sick exploits."

"But we are telling you." Elunara grinned. "I fucked his brains out, and he decided I wasn't all bad."

"Lu." Renwa growled.

"Alright, alright." She sighed. "So I wasn't getting through to Grommash with my usual methods, and I was actually quire frustrated."

Grogek blinked. "You were frustrated?" This is news to me.

"Eh, shut up, you." She pointed at him and shook her head. "Then the Alliance led that raid against Korgath and won. Grommash decided it was my fault, even though there was no way I could know about it. He went bonkers. I decided it was time to use my one last hand."

"He tore you to pieces." Grogek frowned.

She nodded. "Nothing I had worked so far, so I decided that maybe if I gave him back the power, he would take it. I mean, I've used it before, and it worked quite well, but Grommash is... not right in the head. He fell for it, and he went for me, but after he just went even crazier." She shook her head. "He gave me a good go, but then that was my fault too. That he'd even do that."

"I thought he was going to kill you." Grogek whispered. "He almost did. He tore you apart, and broke you to pieces. Lying there, like a doll, broken..." He shuddered. "Yet you were angry. Just so goddamned angry. I didn't know why then. I picked you up and you were cursing and spitting. No use of your body and yet it was like picking up a poisonous snake. You'd have bit my eyeballs out if given enough chance. It took Lama hours to heal you. She hated me for it. But I made her. I wouldn't let her stop until you were healed."

Elunara gave a jagged shrug. "It's not the first time I've had to go that far for a mission. The ploy isn't about sex, it's about power. Make them think they take the..." 

Elunara blinked at Tulani. Grogek was holding Darguni with a fair amount of surprise himself. Tulani had wrapped herself around Elunara and was crying. 

"Oh Tulani, I'm sorry, I forgot you were in here." She sighed as she wrapped her arms around the weeping woman. 

"I... can't." She talked between hiccupping breaths. "Believe... I didn't know."

"Hey, hey. Shhh, don't cry sweetheart." She held Tulani's face in her hands and kissed the woman's tears. "Please? It's ok. I'm ok."

Renwa leaned over to the visiting orcs. "Tulani was rescued from sex slavers."

Thrall's eyes widened. "But..."

"Just accept the strangeness of the situation."

"But you... I can't imagine... all this time I thought..." Tulani sniffled.

"That I'm stronger than that?" She gave a soft laugh. "Sweetie, I provoked it."

"You can't say that." She whimpered.

"In fact." Grogek laid a hand on Tulani's shoulder. "Grommash was terrified of her."

"What?" Tulani looked up. 

He laughed. "Let her tell it." He handed back Darguni.

"Men are easy. A certain kind of man is easy to figure out. Men who find their power in abusing women are scum, and unfortunately, more than a few of them have found their way into powerful situations. I can manipulate a man into doing what I want. Even one who thinks he controls the women. Grommash was pissed, irrational and mean. I needed him to think he'd won. I needed him to think he's reclaimed any power that he'd given me. 

So, when I knew he was going off the handle, and quite frankly might have killed me outright... I manipulated him into... that.  I'd been after him from the start. I knew how to use my body how I wanted it to be used. Instead... it wasn't power he wanted, it wasn't punishment." She shook her head. "I couldn't get into him, and I made him think that he had one alternative to REALLY punish me. Instead he was ashamed." She laughed. "A crazed tyrant was ashamed of an act many bastards like him are proud of. What a weird monster."

"But I don't understand." 

Elunara sighed. "I will have to spend some time explaining it to you. I promise I will." She reached up and wiped the tears off of Tulani's face. "Do not cry for me, my love. I have a story to tell."

Tulani nodded and went for her chair. Grogek reached out and wrapped a hand around Tulani's waist. He pulled her in and hugged her tightly. "She is stronger than all of us." He murmured before kissing her face and smiling. He released her, and she returned to her chair looking dazed.

Elunara nodded. "Grogek doesn't lie. I was unconscious for five days. This led to my spotter getting nervous and contacting headquarters with further instructions.  I had already sent a message. But it had gone south. I managed to con Grogek into a spar in the ring. By this point I had turned the entire fortress against Grommash."

"He was terrified of her power. His own men, angry at his treatment of her."

"I knew I had to bail the mission, but I couldn't risk any dumbass orcs trying to rescue me." She snorted.

Grogek grinned. "Don't forget the goblin."

"I miss Ricky, he was a little sweetie." She shook her head. "Anyway, I had Ricky prep our escape and he'd done a wonderful job of setting explosives. So Grogek and I met in the ring."

"Grommash had ordered me to kill her, and I had... neglected to. I convinced him that the best way to kill her was to do it in the ring. Then the men would regain respect of Grommash's methods." Grogek started snickering. "Tell them, I can't." 

"I had a plan to piss off every orc in the place." She Shrugged. "Oh, we fought, but neither of us tried very hard. In the end, I managed to get him completely naked and we were barebacked wrestling, and then we just went for it. We fucked right there in the ring of battle." Grogek was doubled over trying to not laugh. "It had the intended effect and everyone went ballistic. I had Ricky blow the charges and we grabbed our shit to go. Unfortunately, I'd misjudged Ricky's running ability, and he fell behind. Grommash cleaved him in half." She sighed. She shook her head. "I convinced Grogek that we'd be safer to hide with my people, even if they did try to kill me."

Renwa sighed. "Then she convinced me that the only way to keep the orc happy was to employ him as our new trainer. Now, he's commander of our men and between the three of them, earned the respect and trust of everyone here."

Durotan laughed. "You had sex in the challenge ring? I would pay to see Grommash's face."

Elunara shrugged. "I can get you a copy of the picture I drew."

Renwa began to dig in his desk. "Actually, I believe I have a copy right here." He pushed the piece of paper across to Thrall. The four orcs looked at it and began to laugh.

Thrall considered. "You seem well aware of this duplicity." He turned to Grogek.

"I asked Elunara to learn her language. When my sister Lama came and tried to tell me of Elunara's treachery, I began to read her books. She's kept a very detailed account of her life. I tried to take some pages to Lama, to show her what I had found out, but I was trailed. Elunara stood in front of her own men, and read aloud the pages I had chosen." Grogek got quiet. "I did not intend to embarrass her as such, but she was unfazed. She slit Lama's throat. Her eyes were dead, but I had already learned her heart by then." 

He grinned and stared at Elunara. "She's my vicious little she-wolf. She will slit your throat and forget you ever existed. She is kind, and courageous, and only recently believed she even had emotions. It took me forever to convince her, but we had an amazing ceremony right here in town." He turned around and reached out. Tulani placed Darguni in his hands. "And she gave me a son unlike any other." He nuzzled the baby with his cheek. "We may be a strange family, but this is my family regardless."

Elunara slid off the desk and made her way into Grogek's arms. She picked up Darguni. Looking over she motioned for Tulani. Tulani quietly got up and joined in the embrace. 

No one spoke for awhile.

It was Durotan who broke the silence. "Are you Warsong?"

"I was."

"You are not like the Warsong I am familiar with."

"I used to be." He shrugged. 

"And now you train their troops?" From Thrall.

"I do." 

Darguni began to fuss so Elunara handed her over to Tulani who took him back to nurse again. 

"She nurses your baby?" Draka cocked her head to the side.

"My body may have bore him, but it was Tulani who was able to care for him." Elunara shrugged. 

"That must be frustrating." Aggra said quietly.

"Immensely." Elunara frowned.

Thrall sighed. "We came to see if the rumors were true, and they quite are. However, we were not expecting everything that has seemed to come along with it." 

"What WAS your plan?" Renwa frowned.

"Perhaps convince him to come aid us. But I see that wouldn't work." Thrall frowned.

"And her methods for securing one are out the window too." Draka snorted.

"Actually..." Elunara tapped her chin.

Grogek raised an eyebrow. 

"Lorros."

Grogek shrugged. "What of him?"

"He helped us, even after..."

"Ah yes, Lorros and Jobar. They were quite enamored with you." 

"And when we escaped, it was Lorros who loaned us his wolf."

"But how would you get to him? We'd both be killed on sight."

"I need my board." She was up and out before anyone could comment. She ran through town, dodging people and ignoring calls for her attention. She skidded into the barracks room and began to dig down paper and pencils. Once she was satisfied with her materials, she tucked them in her board and ran again. She skidded into the General's office. She plopped down on the desk. 

"Now, I just have to figure out how I will write this." She began to scrawl runes on to the paper. "Where was his barracks?" She shook her head. "Never mind, too unreliable, I'll have to focus on his body." She scribbled and worked. When she was satisfied with the preliminary work, and she looked up. Everyone was watching her intently. She tapped her pencil on the board. 

"Well, I can't write something, he wouldn't know my code or language. Anything I wrote someone else would be able to read." She rocked her head back and forth and began to draw Lorros from memory. She sketched a few land details, putting him in a certain location. She made lighting and sky notations to convey time. Finally she added details on the bottom for the passage of two days. She looked it over and then handed the page to Grogek.

He looked and nodded. "I think that reads clear enough."

She took the page back, wadded it up and tossed it over her shoulder. It hit the table and began to burn.

"What was all that about?" Durotan shook his head.

"I just used magic to teleport that message to Lorros. If he's smart enough he'll figure out I want him in that location in two days time. That should give him enough time to escape. I'll be waiting on him."

"I'll be dangerous." Grogek frowned.

She snorted. "Vicious she-wolf remember? I can handle myself." She looked back at Renwa. "Tell Gerald he's needed for spotter duty."

Renwa nodded. "I knew you were getting bored."

"Sweetie." She ran her finger down his nose. "I make my own excitement."

"That you do." He grinned.

"What do we need to do?" Thrall asked. 

She grinned at him. "I'm a mission specialist. All I need is my spotter."

"I won't insult you by saying I'm going to protect you. However, I intend to back up your spotter, in case things go wrong." Grogek nodded. 

"Fine. But you damned well better not interfere unless I call you out."

"On my honor."

"Gerald is trained in stealth and reconnaissance, not direct combat. So I'd recommend listening to him, just this once." She grinned. "He knows the best places to hide, knows my signals, etc. He won't hold it over you. Mostly, he fears me more than you." She laughed. 

Grogek scoffed. "I fear you."

"That's why we work so well, Sugarbear."

"The way you two talk to each other is strange to watch." Thrall murmured.

"How's Jaina these days?" 

Thrall just glared at her. 

"Oh, right, Garrosh drove her insane."

"That was unkind." Renwa admonished.

Elunara shrugged. "I'm growing weary of being called strange. I'd rather be the whore."

"Well, whore..." Renwa grinned. "You are back on mission."

Grogek snorted.

Durotan raised an eyebrow. "This does not bother you? Do you not defend your mate?"

"The Whore is my code name. I chose it."



For the Whored Ch. 035



By the end of two days time, Elunara hid in a tree above the specified location. The dark form made its way into the clearing. He looked around. 

"Night Elf?" He whispered.

Elunara dropped down. "Hello, lover." She called. 

He turned around and searched through the darkness. Once he spotted her, he rushed over. "I wasn't certain I understood your message."

She ran a finger down the front of his chest. "I'd say you did an excellent job." She licked her lips. "I'd say you've filled out a bit since I saw you last. Gotten a promotion?" She stepped back and looked him up and down. She wandered around him, slid her hand across his ass. "Yes, I'd say you filled out nicely."

He looked around. "Where is Grogek?"

Elunara seemed to be distracted by his arms. "Huh? Oh. He's back at camp."

"You're both ok?"

She smiled at him. "Better than OK." She sighed. "I should have brought my board. I have a craving to... draw you."

He eyed her suspiciously. "I haven't seen you in quite awhile, I thought you dead."

She patted his cheek. "I'm more resourceful than that, sugar." She run her fingers across his chin, examined his face. Her fingers slowly glided down his neck. He shuddered under her touch. She traced out his shoulder and down his arm. "You always were something to look at. I've missed you." She grinned. 

He grabbed her hand. "You gave yourself to Grogek. You never gave yourself to me."

"You and I had our fun, sugar."

He frowned. "Why did you summon me?'

She grinned and pulled his hand to her. She began to trace the top of his hand. "I can tell you're not going to buy anything I try to sell, so I'll be honest." She turned his hand over and traced his palm. "You were kind to me. I remember that. Grogek and I have made a life back with the Alliance." She massaged his hand and started to work up his arm. "You should know by now, that he was well aware of what I was doing with all of you back in my room. I still do it." She nibbled on his finger. 

"Something tells me, that just like Grogek, you're different from the others. There's a kindness in you, that isn't allowed in the Iron Horde." She scooted in close and laid her palms on his chest. "I know you like me. I was hoping that maybe..." She stood on her toes. "That maybe I could see you again. I was serious when I said I missed you." She brought her lips whisper close to his. "It would be terrible to see that kindness hidden."

He ran his palms down her ass and cupped her close to him. 

"Perhaps you could join us. Maybe..." She brushed her lips against his. "Maybe we could enjoy each other's company a little more often."

His hand reached up and pressed at the base of her skull, pressing her into his kiss. 

"How is this helping?" Thrall hissed. 

"Hush, my love." Aggra sighed. 

"Does he not react?" Durotan shook his head and looked through the spying device again. "Grogek just stands there, while his mate seduces this orc."

Lorros shoved her backwards. "This is wrong." he growled.

She licked her tender lips. "You say one thing, but your body acts another."

"You belong to Grogek. If you were mine, no one else could have you."

She sighed and rubbed his arm. "Sweetheart, I could never be tamed." She looked through her lashes at him. "I hoped that maybe I could enjoy you one more time. The Alliance draws ever closer. You may die in the conflict." She pushed away and wrapped her arms around herself. "I had hoped to lure you away. Keep you safe." She looked over her shoulder. "The Alliance? And the Horde? They're stronger than you think. Grogek has been training their men; teaching them the secrets of the Iron Horde."

Lorros narrowed his eyes. "Has he?" 

"By time they strike, it will be a competition. It won't be a war. It'll be who slays the most." She turned back to him and laid her hands on his chest. "I just wanted to keep you safe. I care for you." Reaching up, she kissed his chin. "Maybe you cannot have me like you wish, but... well, I thought that..." She sighed and looked away. "Just once." She looked up into his face. "I'd like to have you just once."

His eyes softened, and his fingers brushed her hair.

She sighed and smiled. "It would be the Alliance who wins that competition." 

He froze. "What?" 

She shrugged. "Grogek trains the Alliance. The Horde... well they're just children at this stage. No..." she looked away as if calculating. "Grogek will win that competition on his own. The Horde have no inside track." She shook herself. "I care not for that. I only wanted a time with you." She ran her fingertips up across his neck and chin. "We won't think of Grogek now. He will prove his superiority when that time comes."

Lorros held her hips in his hands. "What if Grogek isn't superior?" He kissed her. "What if this Alliance loses to the Horde?"

She gave a half laugh. "Wouldn't that be something?" She shook her head. "But they don't have a Grogek." 

He dug his fingers into her hips. "What if I beat Grogek? What if I was superior?" He whispered.

Her eyes widened. "Wouldn't that be impressive? Do you understand what that would mean? Grogek's had all this time to work on them. How shocking would it be, for you to beat him in something he's already ahead on?" She laughed. "I would be amazed." She whispered, as she brushed her lips across his. 

"How would I do that? How do I get them to trust me?" He pushed her back.

Her knees buckled. "Well...." She gasped when he went for her neck. "I might... I might know someone." She panted against him, her body clinging against his. 

He knelt above her and laid her on the ground. 

She laid her arms above her head, her face flushed, and her body arching against him. "We go back... he would trust what I say. Trust my judgment."

Lorros licked her neck as she began to make hand signs. 

Gerald interpreted her quickly and relayed the message. Grogek nodded and sent on his own message. 

"Spirits save me." Durotan muttered. "He's going to let his wife bed that orc in order to get him to aid our side."

He yanked at her clothes, bit at her neck. She gasped appropriately as he tugged her shirt up and over her hands. She wiggled free. "Let me touch you. I've wanted to so badly..." Her voice was hoarse. Wrapping her arms around his neck, their mouths mated together. He yanked her pants down and tugged himself free of his own. When he shoved himself in, she groaned. "Yes." She hissed. He clung to her hips as if they were a desperate life line, even as he ravaged her mouth. Her ass ground into the grass as he furiously pumped himself in and out. 

As far as men went, Orcs were a hell of a lay. They were passionate, that's for sure. She lay beside Lorros, her fingers doing fascinating things to his chest. Her head jerked up. The sound in the bushes was no animal. Lorros sat up. 

"Brother... how could you?" Jobar was standing there, a disproving look on his face. "You know Grommash forbade any contact with that harlot."

Lorros snarled. "Grommash cannot control me any longer!"

Jobar shook his head and turned to run. At once, Lorros was up and grabbing his axe. He flung it into the back of Jobar's head. He marched over and looked down. With a frown he yanked the axe out. 

Elunara gasped at him, her face flushed. "I guess you can never go back."

"For you, my love. I will do anything."

She scrambled up and grabbed her clothes. "Come, we are no longer safe here."

He nodded and dressed. "Where is this friend of yours?" He led the way to his wolf. He mounted the beast and pulled her into his lap. 

"We head this way." She pointed. She led him away, down into the woods and to the spot that Thrall had made a "camp". 

"Thrall!" She called. "Be not alert, it's just me, Elunara."

He looked up and raised an eyebrow. "It's been awhile, Elunara."

"I've brought you a gift." She held out a hand to Lorros. "He is... special to me. I have to get back to my camp before I'm noticed."

Thrall raised an eyebrow. "Have you gotten into trouble again?" 

She grinned. "You know me." She shrugged. "Listen, this is Lorros. He would like to help train your troops."

Thrall gave her a confused look. "Why ever would he be better than what I already have?"

"Because he is of Iron Horde, and...." She giggled and blushed. "I have told him of the coming competition. He would like to help the Horde win." 

Thrall considered. "Fine. You've helped me out before, so I'll have to trust your judgment. And you sure he'll beat the Alliance? I hear they have a secret weapon."

"He's better." She grinned. "Much better." She ran a soft hand down his arm. Looking up, she smiled at Lorros and rubbed her cheek on his arm. "He'll prove himself. I assure you."

"Fine. You always were good at talking me into things that didn't make sense."

She giggled. "Forgive me Thrall, but the light comes soon, and I dare not be missed."

He nodded. "Stay out of trouble."

"You know I won't!" And she disappeared into the trees.

"I saw it happen and I still don't believe it happened." Aggra shook her head. 

"I cannot believe you let your mate do that." Durotan frowned. 

Grogek laughed. "It is not a matter of let." He bit Elunara's shoulder. "I don't think I've been as turned on by you as I am right now. 

Elunara purred up at him. "We'll just have to use that later." 

"I was unaware of what you said." Draka frowned.

Renwa cleared his throat. "How DID you pull that off?"

Elunara shrugged and grinned. "I maaay have led him to believe that the Alliance and the Horde are in a bloodlust competition, and since Alliance has Grogek, Grogek will prove himself superior, but if Lorros were to lead the Horde to victory, it would make him superior, which will be SO attractive..." She snorted. "Thrall is currently hauling him back to help train the Horde."

"You never cease to amaze me." Grogek licked her neck. "So, he hopes to best me? I guess I'll just have to reassert my dominance." He gave a teasing growl. 

"OOO dominate me." She giggled.

"You two are weird." Draka shook her head.

"I was surprised when Jobar showed up." Grogek frowned. 

"I thought he was going to blow the thing, until Lorros cleaved him in the head."

"How the hell do you inspire such loyalty?" Grogek laughed.

"Sweetheart, you've had me. You know how good I am."

"I can't take much more of this." Draka shook her head. "Come, let's leave this place, before the taint of it lingers."

"Well, I love you too, sweetcheeks." Elunara snorted.

After they left Renwa sighed. "You two give me a migraine."

"Aww," Elunara laid her hands on his shoulders. "I'll make it better." She whispered. 

He laughed. "Maybe another time." Shaking his head he watched their retreating forms. "You didn't have to help them."

"Anything to be rid of the Iron Horde." Elunara snorted. 

"I wasn't aware Lorros was competitive." Grogek frowned. 

"He wants me all to himself. You are just in the way. Too bad for Lorros, that attitude towards me would get him killed in ordinary circumstances." She propped her hands on her hips. 

"Because he cannot beat me?" Grogek raised an eyebrow. 

"No, because I'd slit his throat." She snorted in disgust. "I am not a possession to be jealously guarded." 

Grogek laughed. "I love my vicious little she-wolf."

The three orcs met up with Thrall and his new companion. Lorros frowned. 

"Your Horde is being aided by the Frostwolves?"

"Yes. Our ties run deep."

"That was disturbing." Durotan visibly shook himself.

"What was?" Lorros narrowed his eyes.

Thrall tried to signal his father, to no avail.

Durotan cleared his throat and did not look at the new comer. "What man lets his mate be touched by other men? Revels in it." Disgusting.

"He does WHAT?" Lorros growled. 

Durotan realized his mistake and snapped his mouth shut.

"You saw Grogek?" Lorros snarled. 

Draka cleared her throat. "Yes, he... ahh" She glared at Durotan, who shrank under her gaze. "This Night Elf he has, other men have her and he does nothing."

Lorros tugged at the reigns of his wolf and turned the beast around. Thrall blocked his path.

"You cannot save her, he has an entire army."

Lorros growled. "Then I will raise my own army. And I will save her." He turned his wolf again and headed for Frostfire Ridge.

Thrall watched them head up and Aggra moved her own mount beside him. 

"I fear we may have just created another Garrosh."

"We will undo the damage, Go'el. Somehow."



For the Whored Ch. 036



Grogek was up already, and Elunara held a finger to her lips as she climbed in Tulani's bed. He chuckled and went back to his routine. Elunara snuggled in behind Tulani. The Draenei was still sound asleep, but reacted to the embrace and murmured in her sleep. Grogek gave a little wave as he left for the day. 

Tulani had a rough night; that much Elunara knew. The poor woman needed her extra sleep. So Elunara contented herself just wrapping her arms around the woman's waist and watching her sleep. She nuzzled her nose just behind Tulani's ear. Being very careful, she was able to slip the night gown over Tulani's head and toss it to the ground. She tugged the blankets close so Tulani wouldn't chill. 

She ran her hands up Tulani's body and cupped her breasts. She began to lick her neck as she gently brushed against her nipples. Tulani moaned and shifted. Elunara held Tulani's tail between her legs and wrapped one leg up around Tulani's. 

"Wha?" Tulani mumbled. 

Elunara slipped her hand down and slid her fingers across Tulani's wetness. Slowly, she slipped on finger in. 

Tulani's eyes flew open. She grabbed at Elunara's hands. 

"Hello my lovely." Elunara purred into her neck. "I owe you that day of enjoyment."

"Ah, you are mean. You startled me." Tulani leaned back against Elunara. 

She slid her finger in and out, her other fingers rubbing the inside of Tulani's thigh. 

Tulani shifted her leg up, her hoof pressed against the bed. 

"That's my good girl." Elunara purred. She licked the curve of Tulani's neck, and shifted a second finger in. "I'm going to make you feel wonderful." 

"You already do." Tulani shifted her hand back and grabbed Elunara's ass. The other hand gripped the sheets.

Elunara nibbled at her neck and licked the tender spots. She drove her fingers in and out, teasing Tulani's inner thigh. She was gentle as a whisper on Tulani's sensitive breasts. When at last Tulani began to writhe, Elunara buried her fingers and held on to the bucking woman. When it subsided and Tulani was panting, Elunara gave her a soft lick on the shoulder. Tulani shuddered.

"Hmmm now, what else can I do to you?" Elunara purred.

"There's more?" Tulani asked weakly. 

"Oh, Sweetie, I plan on playing with you ..." She pressed her lips against Tulani's skin. "All day."

Tulani shivered. "We've never..." She swallowed.

She rubbed her nose against Tulani's shoulder. "I hope to help you enjoy your body all the more." She kissed the shoulder.

Both froze as the baby began to cry. Elunara got up and went for him. Tulani had gotten comfortable on the bed, and Elunara handed her Darguni. As Tulani nursed, Elunara curled up beside her. 

"Damn, lost out to an infant." Elunara giggled. 

Tulani grinned. "Soon he will be satisfied and he'll go back to sleep. Then we can continue our fascinating discussion."

Elunara's eyes glinted. "I knew you'd see it my way." 

Once Elunara returned him to his bed, she returned to Tulani, who was sitting on the bed looking serene.

"You know..." Tulani began. "I have not liked being naked since... Well, you know." She shrugged awkwardly. "Yet, here I sit, in anticipation of what you have in store for me."

Elunara pulled Tulani forward so that she was sitting on the edge of the bed. Elunara knelt in front of her. Pushing Tulani's legs apart, she ran her hands and fingers on the inside of her thighs. Carefully, she ran her fingers over the nasty tattoo on the inside of Tulani's thigh. She traced out the symbols and shapes. Tulani shivered. Softly, Elunara began to kiss the tattoo. 

"I hate this thing." Elunara whispered. "I hate that they marked you." She traced kisses on the symbols. "I know how much it bothers you. I know how you wear long dresses just to hide this." She continued her journey along it. "You're much more than this. I want you to know that." She brushed the back of her hand against it. "We should treat it differently. It is no longer what they did to you. It's what I..." she kissed it. "can do for you."

She licked the length of the tattoo and Tulani gasped. Using a combination of her fingers and mouth, Elunara began to work on the tattoo, using the sensations in Tulani's thighs to bring her much deserved pleasure. She made her way to the center and spread it apart with her fingers. She licked one side and then the other. Playing with the lips she gently slid her finger in the hole. She worked on the little areas, exploring the slick wetness of Tulani's folds. 

Tulani grabbed the bed and tried to hang on. She gasped and moaned, shivered and shuddered. She was panting and sweating by time Elunara shoved her tongue in. Tulani gasped and grabbed Elunara's head. Elunara grinned as she continued to slip her tongue in and out, using her lips to slurp at Tulani. Once again the woman began to shake and Elunara held on. Tulani finally let out a strangled gasp as Elunara moved her head back. She grinned up at Tulani.

"You know..." Elunara began. "I never considered women before you."

"Well, you do an amazing job." Tulani marveled.

"Lay on your belly."

"What?" Tulani blinked.

"Lay on your belly." Elunara stood up and pushed Tulani over. 

With some trepidation, Tulani complied with Elunara's request. Elunara shook her head and began to reposition Tulani. She scooped her arms up under her chin, and spread her legs out a little. Elunara climbed up on the bed and, after putting her knees on either side of Tulani's hips began to rub Tulani's shoulders. She worked on Tulani's shoulders and neck for a little while before adjusting her again. Once in a better position, Elunara continued massaging her way around Tulani's neck.

Tulani groaned. 

Elunara laughed. "When have you done this last? Never probably, you've got so many muscle cramps it's ridiculous. She worked on Tulani's shoulders for quite awhile before making her way down her back. Tulani propped up on her arms.

"You are amazing at this."

"With the efforts I put in, it was easier for me to learn the body than to have to run to a healer all the time. Plus, it helps get some people off." She worked on Tulani's back, before moving down to her ass and hips. Elunara grinned, but continued on to Tulani's legs. Once she was Satisfied with her work, she placed her hands on the small of Tulani's back.

"But, since I got you here." She purred. "I am ever so curious about this tail of yours." Elunara worked her way back to Tulani's butt and hips. Her knees between Tulani's legs, Elunara pushed her weight on Tulani's ass. She gently ran her hands toward the tail. With one finger she ran it along Tulani's tail. Tulani wiggled. 

"It is sensitive, yes. In the right... handling?" She shrugged. 

Elunara grinned and ran her hand up and down the tail. Tulani flushed and wiggled. "So now I have to find the interesting spots, huh?" She began her inspection, rubbing little circles around. The tail flinched under her touch. The underside was quite sensitive to touch and manipulation. Still working her way around the tail, she dragged her thumb down to Tulani's ass. Tulani was panting by this point. 

Tulani looked back at Elunara, panting and drooling. Elunara applied a little bit of pressure and Tulani gasped. Tulani's tail curled under itself. With grin, Elunara pushed in just a little bit, teasing the rim. Tulani pushed her face against the bed sheet and her hooves shifted up and down. With one hand, she slipped a couple of fingers inside Tulani's front, as she pressed against her ass with the other. 

Tulani trashed and moaned, her tail flexing up and down. Elunara grabbed the tail and pushed the tip into Tulani's ass. Tulani gasped and thrashed, her tail working its own way in. Elunara grabbed the tail, preventing it from going too much too soon. Tulani rocked against Elunara's fingers, as Elunara held on to the tail. Tulani finally called out, arching her back, before she fell face forward into the bed. Elunara could not suppress her laughter, as the tail went limp and slipped back out. 

"What was THAT?" Tulani gasped. 

"Oh my dear, that tail is a fascinating thing." Elunara moved off of her.

"That was my tail?" Tulani whimpered.

"Not all of it."

Tulani scooted up and sat at an angle and looked at her tail. She rubbed it a little and winced at the sensitivity. 

"How do you not know what your tail does?"

Tulani blushed. "When I was home in my old village, I did not like the males. There was no female that shared my affection, so I was mostly alone. My brother knew what I wanted, but it was a strange thing to others. When the slavers came..." She shuddered. "They...hurt me. A lot. There was no pleasure, only pain."

Elunara climbed in bed with her and pulled Tulani into her lap. "No one will ever hurt you again. I'll make sure of it."

Tulani smiled and wrapped her arms around Elunara. "I know." She laid her head on Elunara's shoulder. Gently, she kissed Elunara's neck. "Umm, I don't know how to do this." She blushed.

"Do what?" Elunara grinned.

"You always bring me such pleasure, and I am unaware of how to do it in return."

Elunara laughed. "Sweetheart, it's all about feel. What do you want to feel, what might feel good for you." She ran her hand over Tulani's breasts. "You just go with what you feel."

"Alright. I will try." 

Putting her hand on Tulani's cheek, she pulled her close and kissed her softly. "Just feel." She whispered.

Timidly, Tulani kissed Elunara's lips and then placed gentle kisses along her jaw and down her neck. Mimicking what Tulani had seen, she gently licked Elunara's neck. Elunara moaned quietly and leaned her head back. Encouraged, Tulani continued to lick at her neck. One hand came up and she ran it softly on the opposite shoulder, down the chest and cupped Elunara's breasts. She moved her fingers around, exploring. She trailed timid kisses down to the other breast. She inspected and explored Elunara's breasts with her hands. Elunara leaned back against the wall and moaned. 

Tulani stuck out her tongue and licked the nipple. When Elunara shivered, Tulani did it again until she began to suckle. Moving her hand down, she rubbed Elunara's belly before sliding her fingers into Elunara's hair. Elunara grinned at Tulani. Tulani blushed and looked away as she ran her fingers in Elunara's crotch hair. Finally, she slowly slipped in a finger. 

Then she got interested. She knelt down and looked at Elunara's crotch. Elunara shifted so that she could lie back on the bed. Tulani explored the soft wetness in between Elunara's legs. She slipped a couple of fingers in and out, just playing with the sensations. Elunara groaned and shifted in Tulani's hands. Tulani licked her fingers and giggled. Timidly, she stuck out her tongue and flicked. Elunara shook her head and laughed. 

"You're going to have to really get in there."

It took some effort and a little bit of coaching, but Tulani began to enjoy fingering and licking Elunara's soft wetness. Tulani found she quite enjoyed the taste of her lover and the sensations involved in the process. 

They spent the rest of the day working on each other. They paused for Darguni, but when Grogek came in for the day, he had to smile at Elunara curled up asleep, wrapped up with Tulani in her bed.



For the Whored Ch. 037



A knock on the door interrupted Elunara's train of thought. She opened it up and stared at Tonas and Mayby. Mayby pushed her way on in and Tonas followed behind. 

"What do you need?" Elunara sighed. 

"Teach me how to suck dick." Mayby declared. Tonas flushed and shoved his hands in his pockets.

Elunara was stunned enough that she dropped her pages. She stooped down and scooped them up. "Well, I like a good, bracing, "can do" attitude." She tucked her papers away and looked at the pair. "Well, first he undoes his pants, then you stick your mouth -"

"No, no, no, no. I want you to teach me how to do it right. I saw you two that night. I want to learn that."

Tonas was several different shades of red. "Mayby, don't tell her that. I'm so sorry; she gets a thought in her head..."

"Thoughts are good things. I'm long past being embarrassed over these things." She turned to Mayby. "Though other people are still sensitive, you should keep that in mind." She shook her head. "It's difficult for an embarrassed man to get it up for play."

Mayby pouted. "So we can't today?"

Elunara laughed. "I can get just about any man hard. So we can work on that today. I just recommend watching your mouth..." She winked.

"Just about any?" Mayby frowned. 

"Well, gay men don't find this attractive. Of course, Grommash didn't go for me until I royally pissed him off." She shrugged. 

"He's gay?" Mayby's eyebrows shot through her hair.

"I can't tell you. I mean, he begat Garrosh, but that doesn't mean anything. He could have mated just to spawn. Or he has a mate in mind. Really, I think he just never saw me as a sexual object." She shrugged.

"He must have been terrifying."

Elunara laughed. "He was a really pathetic puppy. But I don't think we're here for my exploits."

After she sent them on their merry way, Mayby looking proud of herself, a Tonas looking shell shocked. She stood there and considered. Grabbing her board and papers, she started working on a design. Grogek found her there, still working. 

"What are you doing?" 

"I'm making a sign. Well, designing one."

"Where is Tulani?"

Elunara looked up and looked around. "Well, I know she came in. I think she said something about Mrs. Finister."

Grogek laughed and kissed her head. "Been involved have you?"

"Well, I might have been given a job of sorts, but I haven't been able to figure it out." 

Grogek leaned against the wall. "And what is that?"

"That's just it. I don't know what to call it. I've been thinking about it ever since Mayby and Tonas came for my help. I mean, I'm an artist." She waved her hand at the wall and the books. "I like when people call me that, but it doesn't include my other hobby." She tapped her pencil on the board. "I want a sign out front, and I think I should have a privacy sign on the door, just so random people don't show up when I don't want them."

"That's a good plan."

"I was thinking of calling it... Sexual Therapy. That sounds vague enough, doesn't?" She looked up at his grin. "What?"

"You're cute."

"I have sex with men for fun, and somehow I got roped into teaching a couple how to have fun sex. So, slapping sex on the sign is the best idea. But I needed a vague sounding phrase so that I don't have to explain exactly what I'm doing in here."

"I think it sounds like a good idea. Now you just have to sell it to Renwa."

She snorted. "I could sell Renwa his own testicles."

Grogek barked a laugh. "I bet you could. In fact, I'd like to see that one."

The next day she took a handful of sketches and a detail pitch to Renwa.

"You want to call this a business?" He stared down at the papers. 

Elunara shrugged. "I'm just combining my talents and making something of it. You can't tell me you haven't already benefitted from my... therapies." She winked. 

He sighed. "Well, it's not the worst idea you've ever come to me with." He stamped the papers. "Maybe it'll keep you out of trouble."

"Me? Trouble?" She was all innocence.

She took the papers to the sign maker. He stared at it. "Are you serious?"

"Renwa stamped his approval."

"Well, of course he did. You could probably sell the man his own testicles."

She smiled brightly. "Hey, that's what I said!"

It'd be done in a few days and she whistled her way over to the training yards. Grogek spotted her and wandered over. She grabbed him by a fang and kissed him soundly.

"Well, someone got what they wanted."

"My signs will be ready in a couple of days."

"What should I start telling people?"

She considered. "I hadn't thought that far. Maybe that I just went legitimate?" She giggled. "The best is probably the most honest. I have settled into town with a new business helping people with all of their sexual needs. I also do portraits and things." She tapped a finger to her lip. "Maybe I should have it somewhere that I'm not there because I have to." She rocked her head back and forth. "I'll figure out all the details. Just tell people that I have a new practice to ask me about."

A couple of days later, Elunara stood outside admiring her sign. Renwa cocked his head to the side. 

"You know this makes you a permanent fixture here, right?" He said quietly.

She nodded. "I'm ok with that."

Elunara was flipping through papers when Grogek walked in. 

"Someone told me it was your birthday."

Elunara sighed and sat down her papers. "Renwa most likely." She rolled her shoulders. "I'm not fond of my birthday."

Grogek grinned wide. "I might be able to change your mind."

She cocked on eyebrow. "Oh?"

He held up a length of rope. "Though, you might want to be naked for this one."

It was her turn to grin as she stripped down. He tied her hands to the center post in the room.

"Comfortable?"

She gave a testing tug. "Nicely done."

"Now for the fun part." He whispered. He gave a loud whistle and three soldiers walked in.

Her eyes glittered with excitement. "Someone's been reading my journals again."

"It has come to my attention that, some of the men have been a little cross with you. Apparently, you take advantage of them, and they just have no way of reciprocating." He rubbed his hand on her naked ass. "Now, that's just not fair, is it?"

The men began stripping down. 

"So, after much consideration, I found you a suitable selection." 

"What did you bribe them with?" She grinned.

"Just you... tied up." He grinned back. "Though I dismissed the ones foolish enough to think you'd be helpless in this state."

She snorted. "Wouldn't be the first to make that mistake." She eyed him. "Where will you be?"

He gestured to a chair. "Over here. Just... Watching." He grinned. Grogek looked over at the men. "Remember, I'm not here." Before walking off and sitting down. 

The three of them looked at each other. 

"Well," said one. "We figured we'd start off in the order of which we've been in here. Mark, you get to start us up." He shrugged. 

Mark walked forward. "No one ALIVE has had as much experience as you have. However, I think us three..." He paused and looked back. "Amateurs" can figure it out." The other two snickered. He laid his hands on her shoulders and ran his fingers down to her breasts. His fingers teased her nipples and she gasped softly. "It really wasn't fair, you know." He pinched lightly. "Our first time in here, we were too terrified of consequences. What would Grogek do to us if he didn't actually approve of your antics? What happens to our sensitive parts..." He moved a hand down her belly and slipped his fingers across her hair. "If we offended you?" He slipped his finger in. "Then when we found out the truth, we wanted a little of our own back." He licked his lips. "It's time for that pay back." He slipped a second finger in and stroked. "I have to admit, I've been fantasizing about this one for awhile."

"Enough talk." She growled.

Hands came up behind her and cupped her breasts. "I have to agree with her." He sunk his teeth into her shoulder. 

The first fingered her and sucked on her breast, while the second one rubbed his erection against her ass. His hands worked on her breasts while he attacked her shoulder. She gasped in surprise when the third slipped a finger in her ass and licked her hip. Half a glance at Grogek, and she saw him stroking his massive erection as he grinned.

She gasped as a second pair of fingers slipped into her. Once she was dripping, a hand slid across her wetness. The third man pushed the first out of the way. He stood up and grabbed her by the hips and slipped himself inside her. He began to rock in and out as the first assaulted her breasts with his wet fingers. 

Third pulled out. "I've always wanted to try something." He moved behind her and pushed the second out of the way. She groaned as the third pushed into her ass. 

"Hey, yeah." Said first. He grabbed her by the hips and slipped into her front. They began to move in and out of her. Tugging hard on the ropes, she moaned. The second captured her mouth and slid his hands down to her wetness. He worked his fingers on either side of the first's dick. 

His hand came up and went for her breast. With a small growl he pushed the first. "I want my turn."

The first slipped out. "Yeah, sorry. That's intense."

The second slipped in and went for her mouth again. Before she could gasp, his tongue raked across her teeth. The first went for her breasts, as his hand slipped down across her ass. He pulled her ass upwards and the third shoved himself in deeper with a groan. 

With a grunt, the third let himself go in her ass. After panting for a moment he looked up. "You have to try this." He pulled himself out of her ass, and the first pushed in after. 

"Damn." He huffed. "That's..." His words were lost as he thrust up and down as he grabbed her shoulders. 

Hands came around her hips and ass. The second slipped himself out and the third buried his face in her crotch. She gasped and struggled against the ropes. With a whimper, she lost track of who was doing what. When the next one came in her ass, he moved and let the last one in. She was drenched in sweat and various fluids when Grogek finally stood up. 

He slipped into her front, as the one in her ass clinched his hands into her skin. Grabbing her hips, Grogek slid himself in and out. He buried her face into her shoulder and, with expert skill, drove her to near madness. She was aware of all the hands, of all the sensitive areas being assaulted. 

Grogek filled her with himself, the force of which caused the final man to come in her ass. She whimpered with pleasure. Grogek grinned and walked behind her, pushing into her ass. Gripping the ropes, she gasped. 

"Well, is anyone taking the front?" Grogek snorted. 

They returned to her, the first slipping into her front, the rest working on her body. She arched backwards, panting madly. Grabbing her ass, Grogek pumped her on to his dick. When he finally finished in her, he leaned his forehead against her back. 

She looked around at the three exhausted men. "Aw, over already?"

They just stared at her and Grogek began to laugh. "Forgive me my love; they were the best I could find."

She looked over her shoulder with a wicked grin. "I tease. You give the best birthday presents."

One of the men fell over backwards. "I give up, she's insane."



For the Whored Ch. 038



The two Orcs snuck in to the Alliance camp, intent on their target. She was walking between buildings when they pounced.

Elunara woke with an awful headache. She blinked and stared at the brown Orc face. "Wah?" She squinted against the darkness. "Lorros?" 

His hands were wrapped around her arms. "Are you alright, my heart? I'm sorry they were so rough with you. They will be punished."

"Where am I?" She rubbed the knot on the back of her head.

He hugged her tightly. "You're safe now. I have you."

Her eyes went sharp and hard. Grogek would have been afraid of her now. In Lorros' ignorance, he took her reaction to be something else. 

"Where am I?" She repeated.

"You are with me, and that is all you need to know." He kissed her softly. 

Only training and caution kept her from summoning her dagger. She had no idea where she was, and nothing in her field of vision gave any clues. "But I'm so confused." She said sweetly. "If I had more..."

He took her hand and patted it. "You are safe here. No man will lay his filthy hands on you again. I swear this to you. You are mine, and I will protect you."

Elunara ground her teeth but remained benign. "You were always so sweet to me." She placed a hand on his cheek. "I trust you to know best."

He gave her a bright smile, and she felt like she was dealing with a dull-witted child. "Rest, my heart. I will see you brought food."

She gave her best, flattering smile. "I don't suppose I could get some paper? You know how I love to draw."

He looked away, out of the tent. "Not now. But soon. I will give you all the pleasures you desire." Swiftly, he stood up and walked out of the tent. Elunara briefly saw snow. "No one in or out. My orders. She stays there." He walked off. Elunara saw the outline of two burly Orcs. She crossed her arms and growled. 

She'd slit his throat if she didn't know that escape was impossible until she knew more. She looked around at the furs and dirt. She scooted to a fur and using her dagger, she cut a chunk of it out. Using dirt, spit and a little bit of effort she was able to scribble a coded message on the furs. With a little prayer, she wadded it up and tossed it over her shoulder. It didn't burn properly, but it did disappear. She only hoped the message came out clear.

Twice she tried to approach the door, only to be shoved backwards on her ass. There would be no speaking with these jerks. 

"I have to pee!" She called. "I don't want to pee in here." She pouted. 

The two orcs talked in orcish. She was going to have to reserve that little nugget for another time. One finally grabbed a messenger and had him send for Lorros. Lorros himself came in the tent. 

"What is wrong?" 

She wiggled in place. "I have to... umm... relieve myself, and I don't want to mess the floor." 

"I will take you this time." He grabbed her arm and marched her out. He turned to the guards and instructed them in orcish to bring a bucket for next time. 

She kept the eye roll to herself. Using her field of vision, all she could tell was she was in an encampment in snow. Frostfire ridge most likely. He released her arm by a tree.

She wiggled and blushed. "Can you not stare at me like that?"

He raised his line of sight, but kept her in view. 

"Do you have to watch?" She muttered in annoyance.

"I have to protect you. When Grogek finds you gone, he will come looking. I will be prepared. I am sorry, my love."

"Surely he hasn't found you this quick." She pulled down her pants and willed herself to pee. She briefly debated killing him now, but he was too alert. He'd break her in half before she'd complete the act with her little dagger. She tugged her pants up. "I'm done." She sighed. 

He grabbed her arm again. She pried his fingers off her arm and took his hand in hers. "Isn't this better?" She smiled at him. He blushed. He actually, freaking blushed. Elunara desperately wanted to groan, but she smiled instead. "It's just me. You don't have to be so mean." 

He nodded. Leading her back in the tent, she noticed the bucket and tried to not growl. She considered her options. Smiling, she worked up a blush. "Will you be joining me in here?"

He nodded stiffly. "I have made arrangements. Tonight." He said. He bent down and brushed a kiss on her lips. "Tonight." He repeated, little more roughly. 

She wished, ever so much, for a temper tantrum. Instead she sat down on the spread furs and smiled demurely. He left and gave some commands to her guards. A short while later Elunara saw a woman at the flaps. She knelt down and shoved a plate of food in. The woman quickly scurried away.

Elunara sighed as she ate her meal. Trapped in enemy territory, with no spotter, no plan, and no paper. She sighed. She wasn't away for a day and she desperately missed her husband, her girl and her baby. Wrapping her arms around her legs and laying her hands on her knees, she allowed herself to quietly cry.

Renwa knocked on Elunara's door. Tulani opened the door, baby on her shoulder. 

"Sorry General, Elunara isn't here."

He frowned. "She was supposed to report to my office an hour ago. I know she gets distracted, but this is a little strange."

Tulani shook her head. "Ask Grogek?" She cocked her head. "I'll go check the Finister's."

Renwa marched down to Grogek. He was currently directing a set of troops in a drill. "Oy, Commander Grogek!"

Grogek barked out some orders and then headed over. "What brings you down?"

"Have you seen Elunara? She didn't show up for her appointment."

He frowned. "There's any number of places she could be right now. I'm sure we'll..." Grogek froze as Tulani came running full force, child nowhere to be seen. She collapsed at the edge of the training yard, panting. He scooped her up.

"Mayby..." She panted. "Mayby said she saw Elunara, called out to her. Elunara stopped and waved. Mayby turned away to close her door, and looked back up and Elunara was gone. Thought it was odd, but decided Elunara had something important."

"Where is Darguni?" 

"Mrs. Finister is looking after him so I could tell you."

Commander Grogek halted training. "Elunara is missing!" He bellowed. "FIND HER!"

They searched for hours, but no one could find her. Only a splatter of blood where she had been standing. Grogek was in a distraught rage by time they met in Renwa's office. Tulani was crying, Darguni had been left in the care of Mrs. Finister while they searched. 

Everyone was surprised when a flap of fur landed on the desk. Renwa snatched it up and ran his eyes over it. 

"Elunara has been taken by Lorros."

Night fell and Elunara cleaned herself up. She shook out her hair and wiped up her face. Tears were for amateurs. Tears got agents killed. She was a pro. Her guards were switched out, and she briefly wondered if Lorros would make them stay once he was inside. She laughed. That was a stupid question, he was paranoid. She wasn't walking out tonight. Even if she slit his throat, she knew nothing about the layout, no idea on man count, nothing. She was shooting blind, so she would do what she did best. Fake it.

Her favorite talent was her ability to fuck men and make them give her what she wanted. Enough effort and she'll have this whole place in her hand. Or at least the idiot. She was pissed. Elune save her she was beyond pissed off. She would use it, just as before.

He came in at a predictable hour. The disciplined always did.

He looked around before sitting his axe down. He frowned at the bucket in the corner. She pretended to have eyes only for him, but she would make his life difficult. He barked an order at one of the men, who walked in. The two orcs took up most of the space, and Elunara shifted backwards as if nervous. Lorros barked orders in orcish and she had to stifle the snicker. The big tough orc balked at dealing with the bucket, but he feared Lorros more. 

She watched the exchange with great interest. Lorros had been busy in the past six months. She decided that a cower, with a hint of pride, was the expectation. Once the other orc picked up the smelly bucket and went out. She tried for a visible sigh of relief.

He laid a light hand on her shoulder. "No one will touch you again. This I promise."

She turned a snort into a sigh. She straightened her back and smiled. "I'm not sure what you mean."

He knelt in front of her and looked into her face, searching. She went for shyness, with a hint of spine. He placed a hand on her cheek. Leaned forward, he feathered a kiss against her lips. "I am not like him." 

She bit back, "That's for damned sure." And went for, "You're so sweet." Instead. "You shouldn't have worried about me. I do fine on my own."

He laughed softly, as if he doubted that. He kissed her again. "I will never let them hurt you again." He said in a husky voice. He pressed her back, and laid her on the floor. He kissed her mouth and her nose and her forehead. He ran his fingers under her clothes and she responded in kind. He was soft, careful and passionate. She let herself be had in this way, and sincerely wished to claw his eyes out.

The next morning she sighed and tried to stare out of the tent. The orcs kept the flaps pretty well closed, and she wound up lying on the ground just to see anything. It had been three days and Lorros still refused her any paper. She had nothing new to report, so she avoided cutting the furs unless she was going to need them. An orc woman had taken to getting her bucket. When she tried to speak to the woman, she said hateful things in orcish and left. 

Every night she lay with Lorros. Ordinarily that would be the fun part of any assignment, but this just annoyed her. She lay on her back on the pile of furs, head bent backwards, trying to see out of the tent. Lorros walked in and looked at her upturned face. 

"Are you alright?"

"I'm quite bored." She sighed. "If only I could draw. You're so pretty. Can't I put you on paper?"

He frowned. "I am sorry, my lovely. We cannot get the paper you require out here right now. I have sent for some, but they take too long." 

She sighed and stared at what passed for a ceiling. "If you say, my love. Perhaps some other form of entertainment? A friend perhaps?"

He seemed to consider her request. "I will see what I can do." He knelt down and picking her off of the floor, kissed her upside down mouth. She reached out and wrapped her arms around his neck and head. She tugged him down with her and kissed him. She nipped his lips and rubbed her tongue along tender areas. 

"I am lonely." She whispered against his mouth.

"I..." 

She removed one arm from his neck and tugged down her shirt. "I just want you to hold me for a little while. Is that too much?"

He slid a hand forward up her shirt and cupped a breast. He gave one look back before he tugged her shirt down and over. When her shirt was off, he licked her neck. She gave a little gasp and he ran his tongue from her neck to her breast. When he began to suck, she reached out and undid his pants. He was a little too focused on her breasts and gasped when she wrapped a hand around his dick. She began to jack his dick, and he groaned. Shoving her pants out of the way, he began to lick at her wetness. She slipped her mouth on his dick and began to suck. He groaned and wiggled his way down her body. Once he was in position he began to rock his hips against her mouth. She shifted her angle and let him fuck her mouth. He buried his face in her crotch and scraped his teeth on sensitive parts. When she flinched her body and gave him a deep suck, he exploded in her mouth. She almost choked on it. She gagged and pushed against him.

Free of his dick, she gasped for air and coughed it all up. 

"Oh, my love." He crooned. "I'm so sorry, I didn't mean for that to happen." He pulled her into his arms. 

She coughed and spit on his shirt. With a deep blush, she wiped at her face. "No. No, its fine... you're just bigger than..." She shook herself. "I wasn't expecting it. I wish I could just wash my face. That's all." She looked embarrassed.

He scooped her up and walked out of the tent. She was quick to scan the details of what she could see. She was taken a different direction this time. Elunara clung to the front of his shirt like a child, not bothering with a trivial emotion like embarrassment. She was taken to a bubbling hot springs. He slid her in to the warm water. 

She purred. "Oh, this is amazing." Expressing true happiness. "I haven't had something like this before." Which was a lie, she loved the Winterspring hot springs. "Oh, why can't we come out here more often?"

"It's not safe." He frowned. 

"Oh, lover, please... come in with me. This is spectacular."

He shook his head. "Not today. I was rough on you. Forgive me. I didn't mean to make you feel that way." He looked like a wounded puppy.

If Elunara hadn't been so willing to kill him the moment she could, she'd feel bad for the guy. She'd gagged on purpose. Grogek was the only man she was willing to swallow. She used the warm water to clean her face and body. She stood up and shivered. She dropped back into the water. "That's cold!" She gasped. "Did you bring me a towel?"

He looked around and frowned. "I am sorry." He yanked off his own shirt, and plucking her from the water, wrapped the clean side around her body. He carried her back. 

When he could not see her face, she rolled her eyes. Frozen tundras meant nothing to her. After he deposited her back in the tent, still wrapped in his shirt, he left her alone. She wondered where he got ready every day. He spent his nights in her tent, his arms pinning her to the ground, but he did not share anything else with her. 

Tugging the bottom fur, she began to make drawings and notations. When she saw a shadow, she tucked the fur away. The same woman as before came with clothes. She tossed them on the ground, complained of wasted material and walked out. Elunara rolled her eyes at the pathetic excuse for clothes. 

A couple of days later, a Blood Elf was shoved into her tent. She landed on her face. Elunara tried to help her up but the Blood Elf waved her away and scrabbled to the edge of the tent. 

"Are you alright?"

She sniffled and wiped her cheek. "I'm fine."

"I'm Elunara, what's your name?"

The woman glared. "I know who you are." She pulled her legs up and wrapped her arms around her knees. "I'm supposed to keep you company."

Elunara sighed. "That's not what I meant." She groaned as she smacked her forehead.

The woman eyed her warily. "Why are you here?"

"Lorros fancies himself in love with me."

"Oh." She snorted. "Sucks to be you."

"I take it you don't like Lorros?"

"He's a cruel taskmaster. He gets results, but he's vicious." She rubbed her arm. "I've been on the receiving end a few times."

"Why don't you leave?"

She laughed. "Are you serious? He has this place locked down. I can't even get reagents to port out of here."

"Well, I intend to get out." Elunara glared at the door.

"Take me with you?" She snorted. "Dying to the Alliance sounds like a better plan than living under Lorros."

Elunara eyed the woman. "I can offer you refuge."

"What can one Night Elf offer to me?" 

"When they come for me, and they will... you can stay with me. I already house my own former Iron Horde Orc." 

The Blood Elf woman continued to eye Elunara. "How do I know he is any better?"

Elunara grinned. "I married him."

The Blood Elf's eyes went wide. "You married an orc?"

"We have a child too." She sighed. Shaking her head, Elunara pulled out the bottom fur and began to make marks. 

"What are you doing?"

"I may look innocuous but I'm a mission specialist. I'm relaying what information I can about our location. I'll also let them know about you." Elunara flicked her eyes up. "If you're in."

"Take me with you." She repeated in a whisper.

Elunara nodded and began to work. Once she was satisfied with what she had, she wadded it up and threw it over her shoulder. 

"I hope that works." The woman muttered.

"What's your name?" 

"Zelinnia." She frowned. "Can't you stab him with that?"

"And then what? Have a dead orc and no way to run? No, we wait for our chance."

Zelinnia nodded. 

The orc woman came back in, dumping trays at their feet and hauling away the bucket with a spate of insults.

"I kind of like her." Elunara commented. 

Zelinnia wrinkled her nose. "Why?"

"She has the most creative insults I have ever heard."

"You can understand her?"

"Married an orc, remember?"

Zelinnia just laughed. 

Night began to fall and Elunara ticked off the minutes. "Remember, if you can get to paper, try to bring me any. If you can get a message to Thrall, all the better."

Zelinnia nodded and watched as Lorros came in. 

Elunara gave a friendly wave. "I guess I'll see you tomorrow."

Zelinnia stood up and wiped off her robes. "It was nice meeting you." She smiled. Elunara recognized the nerves but appreciated the effort.

Lorros shoved her to the ground.

"Hey!" Elunara stood up.

"She stays." He growled.

Elunara softened her voice. "But you're here now. I thought you'd prefer the privacy."

He lifted his axe. "Has she not been satisfactory?"

Elunara threw herself in front of Lorros, as Zelinnia scrambled back against the tent wall. "She has been a satisfactory companion. Thank you. I'd like to keep her if you don't mind." Elunara laid a hand on Lorros' axe arm. "But, I think you came in here for a different reason. 

She scooted into his personal space and gently pressed his arm down. He dropped the axe and focused on her face. Her other hand she ran up his chest and to his neck. She gently pressed into his muscle. Working with her fingers, she made her way over his arms and to his chest. Using massage skills, she worked on the knots in his neck as her fingers moved back. She trailed her fingers up to his skull and worked her magic. 

His arms came around her and he bent forward and pressed his lips against hers. She teased and taunted, drawing his kisses out, as she rubbed her hands down his shoulders and arms. Her hands came down his chest and around his back. She slipped her hands under his shirt and dragged her fingernails across the muscles. He groaned as he knocked her backwards. She hit the ground with a soft "Oof" and shifted her body around. Staring at her, and only her, he pulled off his shirt and came out of his pants. Elunara gave his dick a hungry look. 

He knelt and yanked off her poorly made clothes. 

Zelinnia watched in horrified fascination. She pulled her knees up to her chest and wrapped her arms around them. She watched as Elunara took whatever he gave. She pinched her eyes shut and wished she was anywhere else, but she knew the guards outside would not help her. She looked again and Elunara was looking at her. Elunara's eyes were dead. There was no other way to describe what she saw. Elunara shook her head and then turned back to Lorros. 

The whispers, the moves, they were as lovers. An amorous suitor might think her to be enjoying herself. She caressed at the right moments, murmured the right things. Zelinnia's heart broke. She had no idea how long she lay there, curled in terror. She wondered if Lorros might turn to her eventually. Instead, he curled up like a babe in Elunara's arms. His face pressed in her chest, he murmured things. Zelinnia blocked her ears. Elunara lay there, staring at the ceiling. She cuddled and mollified, until Lorros fell asleep. Elunara did not look at Zelinnia again that night. It was just as well, Zelinnia was horrified by what she might find.

In the morning, a light rustling had Zelinnia's eyes shooting open. She scooted back against the pile of furs, trying to make herself small. 

She watched a morning after routine that might have come from a poorly written romance novel. When Lorros left the tent, the shift in Elunara's face went from forlorn lover, to white hot hate. 




For the Whored Ch. 038



"I can't believe you did that for me." Zelinnia whispered. 

Elunara looked back as if she'd forgotten the woman. She shrugged. "Mission specialist. I've fucked worse."

Zelinnia shrugged. "How did you keep that up?"

She laughed. "Endurance training."

"No. I mean... the..." She shuddered. "The sweet talk."

"More training." She scratched her head and looked at the tattered clothing. "Goddamned asshole thinks he saved me from the "savagery" of my husband, yet tears my clothes off at every turn." She held up the rags. "Disgusting." She tossed them in a pile by the bucket. "If I have to hear him say one more negative thing about Grogek, I may just slit his throat and deal with the army on my own."

"You must really love him."

A single tear ran down her cheek. "I want my baby." She whispered. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Wiping her face she looked up. "I have no spotter, I'm not certain my notes are getting through, and I might actually be cracking. I have to get out of this hell hole." She crossed her arms and glared at the door. "If only they'd let me get one good look at this place. I'd be able to figure this out. All I have are impressions and glimpses." She paced back and forth. "And for the love of Elune, I want my papers!" She growled in frustration.

Zelinnia watched her pace back and forth. "I can give you a layout."

Elunara sighed. "Without some paper, I can't really plan on a description."

"No. I mean..." She held out her hands and concentrated. Across the ground, a map glittered to life. She collapsed against the pile of furs.

"That... that's perfect."

"I can only do it for so long."

"It's enough." Elunara had her perform the spell several times, studying and memorizing the layout. 

Night came and as usual Lorros came back in. He seemed intent on the usual romantic kisses and touches, until he backed out and flipped her over. She blinked in surprise at the dirt in her face. Before she had time to react, he shoved himself into her ass. She winced but maintained her theme. He was without mercy, or perhaps he just didn't care if it felt any different for her. Once he spilled himself, he fell to her side and wrapped his arms around her. She snarled into the darkness.

After he had gone in the morning, Elunara growled. "What kind of jackass goes in dry?" She stabbed the earth until she felt better. Finally she plopped down on the pile of furs. 

"That looked painful." Zelinnia said quietly. 

"Not as much as it should." She shrugged.

A sheet of paper appeared and floated down from the ceiling. Elunara grabbed it. She read the encoded message."Oh Gerald, I may kiss you!" A little more spit and dirt and she began to scribble messages.

Grogek and Renwa arrived near the Horde encampment. The rest of the army held back, awaiting orders. Renwa called out to a guard. "We seek an audience with Thrall!"

The troll turned and ran. 

"I want my wife back." Grogek growled. "Why are we bothering with these politics?"

"I do not wish to start a war with the Horde. I don't think Lorros is here. It's too quiet. We need to locate him first."

Thrall rode out and met the two."Why are you here? Frostfire is no place for yours."

Renwa held up and arm at Grogek. "Elunara has been taken by Lorros. We demand her back."

"He didn't..." Thrall whispered.

Renwa held up the piece of fur. "I have proof."

Thrall shook his head. "I don't need your proof. Lorros has not given up his obsession. He became cruel and unruly. While his methods are questionable, his results have been unparalleled. We sent him off to train troops away from the main lines, but we did not know he'd resort to kidnapping." 

"I want my wife back." Grogek repeated in a low growl.

"Come, I will take you to the training yard." 

Thrall left the two outside the gate and headed in. He turned to a random orc. "Get me Lorros."

The orc ran off and Thrall looked around. He was not happy with what he had seen. Lorros wandered over, taking his own sweet time. 

"What do you want, green skin?"

Thrall ignored the attempted insult. "I want to look around. I heard you had an uninvited guest recently."

"Go away. We don't need your approval."

Elunara was laying flat on her belly trying to see outside when she spotted the green skin. She jumped up and whistled loudly. 

Thrall looked around. He narrowed his eyes at a tent to the north. He tried to press past Lorros, but the brown orc knocked him backwards. "Go away. You are not wanted here." 

"You took something that didn't belong to you." Thrall glared. 

Lorros motioned and a pair of guards came and dragged Thrall and shoved him out on the snow. 

Thrall went back to the pair. A messenger had ran up and handed a sheet to Renwa. Renwa was studying it with Grogek.

"She's in a tent on the north end."

"Thanks, we already got that." Renwa held up the paper. 

Thrall marveled at the detailed map. "She is resourceful."

"That's my cunning little she wolf." Grogek grinned. 

"She is being held with a female Blood Elf. She has offered asylum to this woman. I think we should honor that." Renwa nodded. 

"How are we to get in and free her?" Thrall frowned. "He has an army." 

Grogek roared, and at once a wall of men and women formed on the ridge. "I brought my own army."

Thrall stared. "All of that, for one woman?"

"And every one of them volunteered to bring her back." Renwa nodded grimly. "Time to test who trained the better army."

"HE TOOK MY WIFE!" Bellowed Grogek. "I'LL TAKE HIS HEAD!!"

The army cheered.

Elunara paced the small tent. "Thrall had to of heard me." 

"I don't know why you didn't just call out."

"Rule number one of captivity. Always keep your captors happy. NO matter what cost. They like you, they don't kill you, and they keep the torture to a minimum." She shrugged. "Unless torture makes them happy, then we get into other discussions." She rocked her head back and forth. 

"You have been captured before?"

"Plenty. Mostly on purpose."

Lorros yanked back the tent door and marched in, a growl on his face. "Who did that?" 

Zelinnia shrank back on the floor, trying to make herself small. Elunara slid her hands on Lorros' chest. "Me, my love."

He glared down at her. "Why?"

She stood on her toes and brushed a kiss on his mouth. "Because I longed for you, and saw no other way to gain your attention. You leave me in here so long... I would like to bask in the sun."

He pushed her back. "No. It's not safe."

"But, when, my love? When will it be safe?" She worked up tears. "We cannot be together like this. I should stand at your side, not cower in this little tent."

He rubbed a thumb on her cheek. "I will make it safe, heart. I will. I just need more time, and your patience." 

She ran her hands up his chest and around his neck. Her ears picked up a familiar sound. She pressed her mouth to his, and ran her hands up and pulled him in with her. She blocked his ears with her hands in a mockery of passion. He shoved her down and knelt above her. He was trying to undo his pants.

"LORROS! SHOW YOUR SELF!" Grogek bellowed.

Lorros looked to the door. He pointed at her. "Stay."

"I await the result." She said breathlessly.

He ran out and barked at the guards. 

"Oh, thank Elune." She muttered. She rolled over on to her belly and slithered up to the tent door. Seeing the fighting, she jumped up. "I'm tired of this charade." She opened her hand and summoned her dagger. She leapt, cut open a tent wall and raked her dagger across one of the guard's throats. Switching hands, she shoved it in the jugular of the other. They both hit the ground. 

Tossing open the door, she tracked Lorros' movements. Just before he could reach Grogek, Elunara flung her dagger. It flew straight and true, hitting Lorros in the back of the knee. In a flash, it vanished. 

"That was terrifyingly impressive." Zelinnia poked her head out of the door. 

"You should see me when I'm actually trying."

Elunara grabbed Zelinnia's arm and made her way through the crowd of fighting men. 

Lorros stared at his leg in shock. The dagger hadn't done much, but it was enough to be a bother. He didn't even have the dagger to inspect and see who it belonged to. He looked up and saw Elunara staring down at him, the guards dead at her feet. He stood and shook it off. She was frightened and he had to save her. First, he would deal with this nuisance like he should have in the beginning. 

"GIVE ME BACK MY WIFE!" Roared Grogek.

"SHE IS NOT YOURS TO HAVE!" Lorros roared.

Axes clashed as Grogek and Lorros fought each other. 

"Some women think that having men fight over them is amazing." Zelinnia watched the action with terror. "I think I might soil myself."

Elunara tugged her in a different direction. "It is bullshit is what it is." She yanked Zelinnia out of harm's way again. "There! I see Renwa."

"Who? Would you stop yanking my arm out of its socket?" She muttered as she tried to keep up with the Night Elf's pace.

"RENWA!" Elunara yelled. 

He looked around and spotted her. "Elunara!" 

"Hold this." Elunara shoved Zelinnia at Renwa. "I have to go to Grogek."

He nodded. Looking down at the woman in his arms, he blinked. "Let's get you out of harm's way." He said, as he led her back through the gates.

Zelinnia continued to stare. "Yeah, sure, whatever you say."

"You will give me back my wife, you pathetic whelp!" Grogek roared. 

"So you can whore her out to your men? Never!"

Grogek stopped and stared. "That's what you think?"

"A real man wouldn't let another man touch his woman!" Lorros lunged.

"No!" Grogek roared. "A real man lets his wife do what makes her happiest!" He slung the axe and caught Lorros in the chest. 

Lorros was thrown to the ground. He grabbed the bleeding gash in his chest. Spotting Elunara behind Grogek, he reached out. "Get away, my heart. It's not safe."

Grogek hesitated and looked back. Elunara ran down towards them.

"No." Lorros waved his hand. "Get away."

She threw herself at Grogek, tears streaming down her face. "I missed you so much." 

Grogek wrapped his arm around her. "Are you crying, my love?"

"No. I'm trying to water the flowers." She buried her face in his chest. 

Grogek laughed. Lorros looked back and forth in confusion. "But you said..."

Elunara glared. "I say a lot of things, asshole." She snarled. "Now, if you'll excuse me, I'd like to get back to my baby." With that, she marched off. 

Grogek snarled. "You took my wife, I take your head." His axe rang true as he sliced Lorros' head from his body. One of the men walked up and Grogek pointed. "Bring that." 

The soldier did a good job of hiding his disgust as he put the large head in a bag. He handed it to Grogek who attached it to his belt. "TROOPS" He bellowed. "WE ARE DONE HERE. FALL BACK!"

Outside the gate, Elunara dove on Grogek again. He held her in his arms and buried his face in her hair and neck. "I was so worried." He mumbled.

"He's bigger than the last one." Zelinnia declared in awe. 

Grogek looked up and eyed the Blood Elf. He looked down at Elunara. "Did you find another one?"

Elunara laughed. "No, I'm pretty sure this one is straight."

"Another one what?" Zelinnia looked skeptical. 

"Let's just go home." She buried her face in his chest.

Thrall appeared. "Forgive me. I had no idea..."

"Can it, Thrall, I am not in the mood." Elunara snapped. 

Thrall turned to the Blood Elf. "Are you going through with this?"

She gave a shaky shrug. "I don't trust your judgment any more. I don't trust the Horde any more. This Night Elf not only saved my life, but gave her body to that monster to do so. No, I think I prefer to give my loyalty elsewhere." She marched off to stand by Renwa.

Grogek raised an eyebrow. "You just can't stop saving them, can you?"

"I have no idea what you do to me." She grumbled. 

He laughed. 

Elunara rode in Grogek's lap, while Zelinnia rode with Renwa. They had gathered the army and headed back to their town. She wasn't a needy person, but having Grogek's arms around her made her feel better, she did not move far out of his arms until they were back in town.



For the Whored Ch. 039



Tulani met them, Mrs. Finister holding Darguni. Tulani flung herself at Elunara and began to kiss her all over her face. Elunara laughed and returned the affection. She turned and plucked Darguni out of Mrs. Finister's arms. He clung to her as if he'd never see her again. Elunara sat on the ground and wept; arms tight around her baby. 

All at once, people began to fall upon Elunara. 

"This is the strangest thing I have ever seen." Zelinnia blinked as she stared.

Renwa laughed. "That is our Elunara. You may not understand her, but you will learn to love her."

"He was going to kill me." She shuddered. "I was supposed to be her friend, on his command, and we thought... we thought he'd let me leave the tent at night, but he demanded I stay. When she tried to give me a reason to leave..." She looked at Renwa. "He was going to kill me because he thought she was displeased. So, she jumped in front of his blade." She looked back at the crowd. "And she gave herself to him. Every night. While I hid in a corner, she made sure he never saw me. What kind of person is that?"

Renwa shrugged. "That's our Elunara." He said, as he walked to the crowd.

"Where is Gerald? I need to kiss him for figuring out my code."

"Actually," Renwa laughed. "I figured it out, and Tulani figured out how to send the paper back."

"Oh, in that case." She grabbed the front of his armor and yanked him forward. She assaulted his mouth before releasing him. After many cheers, she turned, tugged on one of Tulani's horns and repeated the process. The crowd began to whistle and jeer.

"You are the strangest bunch of people I have ever seen." Zelinnia propped her hands on her hips.

"I can kiss you too, if it'd make you happy." Elunara laughed as she winked.

She held up her hands. "No, thank you."

Elunara looked up at Grogek. "See, told you she was straight."

"Is she a Blood Elf?" Someone whispered.

"She is my friend. That's all you need to know." Elunara glared. 

A man held up his hands. "If she is yours, then she is ours."

Elunara reached out and patted him on the head. "Zelinnia will stay with us until we find her other accommodations."

Renwa nodded. "That's for the best."

"Oh, Oh... I totally have to tell you this nugget of hilarity." Elunara called out. "Lorros, was trying to save me from Grogek, because he believed he was whoring me out to his men." Zelinnia continued to watch Elunara in fascination.

Everyone froze. 

"Are you serious?" A man called out.

"Yes, Jerry. He told me that several times."

The entire crowd broke out into a fit of giggles.

"Imagine! Me! The helpless victim of Grogek's cruelty!" She posed dramatically. 

The laughter intensified. Some of them were laughing so hard they couldn't stand up. She couldn't tell how genuine it was, but it seemed that everyone shared the same joke.

"Did you cut his balls off?" A plump woman asked.

Elunara sighed. "It is to my great regret that I did not get a chance to."

"Bummer."

"Jeez Mayby," A man frowned. "Curb the bloodlust would ya?"

"It's Elunara. I would have expected her to make earrings out of them."

"Damned if I don't like that idea." She looked up. "Hey, can we ride back real quick?"

"I got a souvenir you will like." He grinned back at her. 

"Ah well. He couldn't measure up to yours anyhow."

"That's for sure." Someone coughed. 

"Now!" Elunara called out. "We all know how much of an attention whore I am..." She grinned as everyone snickered. "But I am exhausted and I would like to spend time with my family." She paused a beat. "The family that shares my roof, not the rest of you."

They laughed and moved out of her way. 

She reached back. "Zelinnia, follow us. We will show you where you will stay."

She was given odd looks, so she followed quickly behind. Regardless of what anyone said, she was still a Blood Elf in an Alliance town. Elunara held her baby while Grogek had an arm wrapped around her shoulders. But the curious thing here, was the Draenei woman's arm around Elunara's waist. They led the way to a barracks building. Once inside, Zelinnia looked around. Everywhere, she could see pages and pages of drawings. She moved to the wall and inspected them. Most of them were of naked men of all races. 

After handing the baby to the Draenei, Elunara walked to one wall and yanked a picture down. She wadded it up, and looked down at the ball. With sigh she laid it on a desk and straightened it out. 

"I need to see the jewel crafter about something first." Grogek said. He kissed Elunara on the forehead. "I won't take long."

She smiled. "No, don't worry about me. Go do whatever it is." 

He stared at her for a long moment before turning and walking out. Elunara began to dig through some books and pulled one down. Opening it up, she flipped to the right place and put the picture of Lorros in her book. She took out a pencil and made a death date notation.

Tulani stood in the center of the room, just watching Elunara. 

Elunara turned to Zelinnia. "This bed is yours." She pointed to one on the wall. "I know you didn't come with much, but we'll get you whatever you need."

"Is this whole building yours?"

"Yes. The big bed is mine and Grogek's. The bed right there beside ours is Tulani's. Darguni sleeps in the back room."

"Why do you have five beds?" She sat down. 

"For guests." Elunara took Darguni again and cuddled him. She tugged Tulani over to sit on her bed. 

"Can't they stay in town?" She considered the bed. It wasn't bad for what it was. It was not Silvermoon, but then again, nothing was and she hadn't been there in a time. 

Elunara grinned and Tulani giggled. "My guests prefer their privacy."

"They also don't usually stay overnight." Tulani grinned. 

Zelinnia was horribly confused. "Alright." She frowned. "I have to ask... you two seem awfully touchy feely."

Elunara played with the baby. "The easiest way to explain, is that Tulani is my wife." 

"But you have a husband." She blurted. 

"I have a husband and a wife."

Grogek walked in. 

Zelinnia shot a look to the massive orc. "You have a husband AND a wife?"

Grogek shrugged and grinned. "Everyone has trouble understanding it at first."

"So you have two wives?" Her eyebrows rose.

"No." He shrugged. He sat on the bed and put his back to the wall. He reached over and pulled both women into his lap. "Tulani and I" He patted the Draenei's head. "Have an understanding. We both love Elunara, and she loves us both. We are not a competition, and we are not actually involved."

"My brain hurts." Zelinnia rubbed her eyes with the heels of her hands. 

"Did he hurt you?" Tulani frowned and rubbed Elunara's cheek. 

She shrugged. "It's not to worry about, sweetheart. Don't think about it too much, or it will hurt." Elunara brushed a kiss on Tulani's lips. "Remember, I can make anything work for me."

Zelinnia shuddered. "I saw it, and I'm still appalled by it. I can't image actually having to do that."

Tulani gasped and tears streamed down her eyes. 

"No. No, don't cry." Elunara kissed her cheeks. 

"That bastard." Grogek growled as he wrapped his arms around both women. Darguni started to cry at Tulani's tears, and they switched their attention to the baby. 

"Sorry, I shouldn't have opened my mouth." Zelinnia muttered.

"Tulani was a victim of slavers. Sex trafficking." Elunara frowned. 

Zelinnia buried her face in her hands. "Now I really regret saying that."

Elunara took Tulani's face in her hands. "Sweetie, I didn't hurt. Just because he was worthless, doesn't mean that years of training didn't help me. I've been in worse, I've had worse." She wrapped her arms around Tulani. "I can make any man enjoyable."

"How?" Zelinnia heard herself ask. 

Elunara laughed. 

Darguni was still being insistent, and Tulani picked him up and began to nurse.

"Wait, I thought you were the mother." Zelinnia stared. 

"I gave birth to him, yes."

"More like carved him out of your own stomach." Grogek laughed.

"Well, yes." Elunara rolled her eyes.

Zelinnia scooted backwards. "You did what now?"

"He was too big for my body. He was tearing me apart... so I summoned my dagger and..." She made a ripping motion. 

"Out of your own stomach?" Zelinnia squeaked.

"Yep." Elunara shrugged. "Anyhow, I'm a mission specialist. One of the best in the Alliance. My missions involve seducing men for information. Because of my insatiable need for men, and my hyper realistic drawing abilities, I became the go to gal for extracting even the most sensitive of information. I have fucked my way through entire regimes."

"And most of Grommash's army." Grogek snorted.

"Hey, they were delicious." She shrugged. 

"And you're ok with this?" Zelinnia blinked. 

Grogek grinned. "Sometimes I get to watch."

"Watch? Hell, that man took forever to look me in the eye again." She chided.

"If he wasn't man enough to handle his side of it, he didn't deserve to meet your eye."

Zelinnia just stared. She was bunking in a mad house, in a town of Alliance. "What did I get myself into?" She muttered. 

Elunara rolled her eyes. "Don't be like that. You have no interest, so we have no interest."

"Elunara never asks for more than you can give." Tulani added quietly. "That is why we love her." 

Elunara kissed Tulani's forehead. "Do not worry about me, my little lovely. I was in no pain." She laid her head and Grogek's chest. "Though I almost ripped his nuts off when he went in the back, dry." She muttered. 

Rage filled Grogek's face. "He did what?" He hissed.

"Calm, my love. He, sadly, can't be killed again." 

Grogek relaxed fractionally. "All the more reason I'm glad I took his worthless head off his shoulders."

Tulani seemed to not know what this meant and gave Grogek an odd look. "I think it's time to put Darguni to bed." She said. 

Elunara jumped up and held out her arms. "Please, let me." 

Tulani handed him over and continued to sit peacefully in Grogek's lap. Zelinnia watched how both tracked Elunara's movements and stared at the door. Neither seemed to pay much attention to each other. When Elunara came back out, she watched the pair smile and invite Elunara back in. 

"Are you an Azeroth Draenei or a Draenor?" 

"Draenor." Tulani wrapped her arms around Elunara. 

Zelinnia nodded and considered. 

"The most annoying part of this whole damned thing is that people are going to treat me like I'm fragile for a few days." Elunara pouted. 

Grogek laughed. "You? Fragile?" 

"I am so dueling your ass tomorrow." She snarled. 

"Sweetheart, I welcome it."

She considered. "I wonder if I can lure Jerry and Louis in here."

Grogek coughed. "They... kind of told people already."

Elunara shot straight up. "WHAT? AND I MISSED IT??"

Tulani giggled. Grogek flushed. 

"Well, they were so distraught over your capture... they..." Grogek rocked his head back and forth. "Comforted each other in front of other people."

"Goddammit. I'm going to go find a necromancer, rez Lorros, and KILL HIM AGAIN!"

"Who are Jerry and Louis?"

"A pair of gay men who have been using Elunara as a cover." Tulani smiled. "They're very sweet."

"I've been waiting for those damned dinkleberries to come out for a YEAR, and that fuck nut, limp dick, pissant MAKES ME MISS IT!"

"Keep your voice down dear; you don't want to wake the baby." He kissed the top of her head. "Besides, you could say they came out because of it."

She crossed her arms and pouted. "Doesn't help."

"Well, then tomorrow you can work out some of your frustration in the training ring." He kissed her shoulder. 

"Tearing each other apart usually brings me joy." She smiled up at him.

"Hey, guys. I hate to break up..." She shook her head. "Whatever that is... but your Draenei is asleep."

Elunara looked down. "Yeah, she's out." Elunara sighed.

"She hasn't slept since you went missing." Grogek frowned. "I have been worried about her health. When she finally does fall asleep, she has horrific nightmares." 

"I could kill him again, just for that." Elunara sighed. "My sweet girl." Elunara kissed the top of Tulani's head. "Help me get her into her bed." 

Grogek shifted himself and scooped up the Draenei woman. He carefully transferred her into the smaller bed. Elunara climbed down and kissed Tulani on the cheek. "I'm here when you need me, my doll." She murmured. 

She climbed back into the big bed and Grogek's lap.

Zelinnia looked away. "Well, I'm tired. I'm gonna go to sleep now." She stretched and then climbed into the bed and laid her head on the pillow. When they began to whisper, she pinched her eyes shut. 

They seemed to be just talking, and Zelinnia sighed in relief, she even managed to doze off. 

Zelinnia opened her eyes and was briefly disoriented. She remembered where she was and scooted under her blanket. She turned over and found herself staring at Elunara completely naked. She had gotten used to seeing the Night Elf naked, but not what she saw. Elunara's eyes practically glittered. Instead of pressed to the dirty floor, she was on a bed, above the brown form. He was huge compared to the Night Elf, but she did not seem to care. 

Elunara was already covered in sheen of sweat; the brown orc below her was the same. She bent down and kissed his mouth, kissed his chin, working her way down his neck and chin. She moved one hand to his dick and slid it up and down, grinning and whispering who knows what. He groaned and gently ran his hands down her body, his hands coming to rest on her hips. Still she teased him. Zelinnia found she could not look away.

"I missed you so terribly." She kissed again. "This warm beautiful body. She ran her tongue from his stomach to his chest. She teased a nipple with her tongue and teeth. "All I could think about was how much I needed you." She slid her breasts from his stomach to his chest. She lowered her body to his, using her wetness to slid against the top of his dick. 

He groaned. "Oh, my beauty. I was so terrified. I didn't want his filthy hands on you. I didn't want him to hurt you." He slid his hands down her back. "I know how you are. I know you, I see you, but still." He pushed her face down to his and he kissed her. He ran his tongue on her lips. He slipped inside and tasted her mouth. 

She continued to writhe and brush against him, driving him mad. His hands flexed on her hips. 

"I've had many men." She whispered. "And none of them compare to you." She slid her tongue in his mouth, and tangled with his. "That bastard thought he could erase you. Thought he could claim me." She rose up again, hovered above him. She slid down on to his dick and sat there grinning at his groan. "No one could take your place." She reached out. 

He raised his hands and linked his fingers with her. 

"Only you can fill me." She began to rock up and down. She arched her back and bucked her hips. "You are mine and I am yours. No one." She leaned forward, her breasts dangling in front of him; still he did not unlink his fingers. "No one can replace you. It is you I love." 

He released her hands and wrapped his arms around her waist. She wrapped her arms around his head and pressed kisses across his face. He moved a hand to behind her head and devoured her. 

Zelinnia swallowed and continued to watch. As repulsed as she had been before, she was fascinated now. This is what that moron Lorros could have never understood.

Zelinnia woke again to a whimpering sound. She thought maybe it was the baby, but then she saw Elunara, still naked, as she slid into the Draenei woman's bed. 

"Sssh, Shhh, my sweetness." Elunara wrapped her arms around Tulani. Tulani turned over and buried her face in Elunara's shoulder. "That's my girl. I'm right here." Elunara kissed her forehead.

"You..." Whimpered Tulani. "You were gone. And... I couldn't find you." She sniffled. 

"I'm here now." She ran her hand up Tulani's back. "It's ok my little love." 

"I tried to find you... and then... they came back." She cried. "They always come back."

"Now, now." She ran her hands up and down Tulani's back, over her butt and down her legs. "They will never come back for you. I won't let them."

Tulani sniffled and clung to Elunara. "They hurt you."

Elunara scoffed. "They can never hurt me. I don't let them. Remember, my love, I will protect you. I won't let you hurt anymore." Elunara put her hands on both sides of Tulani's face and pressed kisses on her eyes and her nose and her chin and finally her mouth. "You will only find pleasure here." She murmured. 

Tulani returned her kiss and wrapped herself around Elunara. 

Zelinnia wasn't aware of what went on under those sheets, but she didn't need that much of an imagination. She turned to the wall and stubbornly stayed there til morning. 

She was startled by the sound of Grogek, and curled in a ball to make herself smaller. She peeked out from under the sheet to see that Grogek wasn't paying attention to anyone. He was getting dressed. Elunara pulled herself out of Tulani's bed and stretched. 

"She had a rough night?" He whispered. 

"Yeah, but I made it better." She grinned. 

He grinned back and went back to what Zelinnia assumed was a routine. 

Elunara put a hand on her. "I know you're awake." 

Cautiously Zelinnia pushed back the sheet. 

"None of us bite guests."

"Or only the ones that ask for it." Grogek said as he shaved.

Elunara rolled her eyes and kissed his cheek. "I'm going to wait for Tulani to wake. She might wake scared."

He nodded. "Do as you do best."

She cocked her head to the side. "So how many heads did you crack over my disappearance?"

He shrugged. "Most of them cracked themselves."

"Aww, I'm touched."

"We've done a pretty fine job of filling the town with people who adore you."

She tapped a finger to her chin. "But I haven't fucked ALL of them."

"Give it time." He grinned. 

She smacked his arm and went to retrieve the baby.

Zelinnia just stared. "What did that mean?"

Grogek considered. "Elunara invented a new thing. She calls it sexual therapy. She either has sex with people for fun, or she teaches them how to enjoy sex."

"You're joking."

"I'm her best customer." He winked. 

"I'm her second best." Tulani timidly called from her bed.

Elunara laughed and shook her head. "But it's so fun! And I have to practice somehow." She handed the baby to Tulani who began to nurse.

"I should expect you at the ring soon?"

"Go get started, I'm going to take Zelinnia to Eloise."

Grogek nodded. He picked up his axe and left.

"You people are weird." Zelinnia eyed the two women. "Who is Eloise?"

"I've never drawn a Blood Elf. Well, female anyway. I am totally going to talk you into letting me."

Zelinnia frowned. "As long as I don't have to have sex with you."

She laughed. "Sweetie, the only female I find sexually attractive is Tulani. Even the women that come to me is just business."

"She never makes anyone do something they're not comfortable with." Tulani smiled. 

"It'd be nice to add you to the healer book anyway. Then after we hit Eloise we'll go down and you can watch me make a fool of myself. After, I know where we can get hot baths. I disparately need one."

"That... does sound nice."

Elunara turned to Tulani. "Meet me at the ring?"

She nodded. "Don't get kidnapped on the way, please?"

"I'm on the alert!" She saluted and dragged Zelinnia out.



For the Whored Ch. 040



"Eloise! I have a challenge for you!" 

"I'm coming, I'm coming."

"Oh, these fabrics are nice." Zelinnia fingered a bolt of fabric.

Eloise eyed Elunara. "You found ANOTHER ONE?? Gods, woman, some of us can't find a ONE!"

Elunara laughed. "She's painfully straight. I assure you. She's just a new friend. I saved her."

"Of course you did." Eloise huffed. "Well, let me look at ya." She paused. "Do I need glasses, or did you bring me a Blood Elf?"

"Hey, you know me. Go big or give up."

Eloise rolled her eyes. "Well, she's got fascinating color. I got just the fabrics." Eloise dug out her books. "You're good with style, you figure it out."

"Here, you can pick out your own clothes." Elunara shoved the book at a bewildered Zelinnia. "You can pick out two. That's a good start."

"I can't pay..."

"My tab."

"Elunara's gold is good anywhere." Eloise shrugged. 

Afterwards, Zelinnia frowned. "Thank you."

Elunara shrugged. "Apparently I have a habit of giving newcomers clothes."

"I'm sorry." 

"For what?"

"I... saw you last night."

She shrugged and scratched the back of her head. "Sorry, we missed each other. Didn't mean to wake you."

"I..." She bit her lip and ducked her head. "I watched."

"Okay."

"I mean... I didn't just peek, I kinda... watched for awhile." She blushed. "I didn't mean to, I'm so sorry." 

Elunara laughed. "Sweetie, the amount of people who have watched Grogek and I have sex, is probably more than the amount of spells you know."

Zelinnia sputtered. "What?" 

"In fact, there's a monthly betting pool over at the south orchard if you ever want in on that." Elunara grinned. 

"You are so completely bizarre."

"Yes she is." 

Elunara looked over and grinned. "Hey, sugar. I'm headed down to challenge Grogek to a throw down."

Renwa rolled his eyes. "You just can't stop yourself, can you?"

"I have to let everyone know I'm not a fragile goddamned butterfly."

"No one said you were." 

She shrugged. "I got a backlog of mean, since I can't carve it out of Lorros' ass; I'll have to whack it out of Grogek's."

Renwa raised an eyebrow. "Knowing you, you did plenty of whacking Grogek last night."

"You know me too well, lover buns."

Renwa shook his head. "Your nicknames get stranger every day."

"Let me guess." Zelinnia frowned. "You've either seen or had sex with her too."

Renwa blushed and cleared his throat. Elunara raised her eyebrows. 

"That is correct." He managed.

"Honesty is the best policy." Elunara nodded. "You should give him a spin, he's pretty sexy himself." She grinned. 

Zelinnia went scarlet. Elunara grinned and put her hands behind her head. 

"Oh looky, the training yard." She called out merrily. 

Elunara went to the weapon rack and picked up her staff. Everyone had already started tracking her movements, and many slowed down. Tulani made herself comfortable up on the hill with Darguni. Elunara twirled her staff and looked around. Grogek grinned and made his way to the far end of the ring. Everyone stopped completely and found their safe distance to watch. 

"You know," Elunara called out. "I was gone for almost three weeks. Something tells me I need to re-establish my dominance!"

Grogek snorted. "Your dominance?" He chuckled. "You're only out here because you can't stop showing off."

"Oh, it. Is. ON!" 

They went at each other like rabid dogs. Zelinnia watched the exchange in complete fascination. 

"Why did she allow herself to be trapped, if she's," Zelinnia jumped back as Elunara was cracked in the head with the side of Grogek's axe. She jumped up with a growl and continued on, unfazed. "Able to do all this?"

"Elunara is smart. She keeps her head together and figures out the best way to approach the situation." He winced as Elunara cracked Grogek uncomfortably close to the balls. "I have not spoken with her about the incident." He winced again. "But I intend to as soon as possible. I would like to also speak with you."

"Me?" She stammered. "Why me?"

"You are new here, and Elunara has vouched for you, but you still remain a Blood Elf in an Alliance town. You will need to know more about us, and what is expected of you." He chuckled. "I can imagine living with Elunara will have its share of" He grit his teeth and wondered how Grogek was still standing. "Awkward situations."

"Oh." She stepped back and barely missed being hit with flying debris. "Aren't you going to stop this?"

Renwa laughed. "This is foreplay to them."

Elunara sat with her knees on Grogek's chest. They were banged up, scratched up and exhausted."Do..."

She huffed. "You... yield?"

Grogek swung his arm up. Elunara made to block but he just wrapped his arms around her and pulled her down. They ate each other's mouths. The crowd went wild. Elunara laughed and wiggled free, she stood on his chest and threw her arms in the air. "I'M BACK, BABY!" She yelled. Another round of cheers. 

"Get off me." Grogek grunted. She laughed and jumped down. Grogek walked to a cart and snagged something out of it. He walked back to the center.

"SHUT IT!" He bellowed. At once everyone went silent. "You all know, that Elunara and I were married in a ceremony many months ago. Per tradition, I gave her a series of small gifts, of which meant nothing to either of us. For all this time, I tried with much difficulty, to find a present suitable for my beautiful warrior she wolf." He turned to Elunara and grinned. "Lorros tried to take you from me. I had to go far to get you back." He turned back to the crowd. "So it is only fitting that the tribute I have for you, comes from that. I cut the head off of that bastard, but what to do with my trophy? A head is an awfully heavy thing to haul around. I knew what I wanted to use, but what do I make? A ring?" She shook his head. "Human traditions do not suit us. A necklace would not do, she already wears one with meaning. It finally came to me." He held out a twisted thing. 

Elunara took it from him and saw the teeth, wired into a spiral. She slipped it up her arm, just below sleeve length. She grinned at it.

"It is a combination of elvish design, and the teeth the slain Lorros. Wear it with pride my love, for at the end of his life, you ripped his teeth out, before I cut off his head!" Grogek barked in laughter.

Elunara reached up and grabbed a fang. She yanked his head down and kissed him to the cheers or the crowd. Grogek spoke in orcish. 

Elunara laughed. "I love you, you sentimental maniac. This is perfect."

Turning, she surveyed the crowd. "Just because I was gone for a few weeks, doesn't mean I cancelled my practices." She gave the crowd a look before heading off. She stopped at Zelinnia's feet. "Come on Sugar, I'm desperate for a hot soak."

"He gave you a bangle of teeth." Zelinnia said flatly. It had taken some effort, but Elunara had managed to convince the Blood Elf to join her and Tulani in the giant tub. 

Elunara and Tulani were taking turns playing with Darguni. "I know!" Elunara exclaimed. "Isn't it awesome?" She looked down at her new adornment. "Best wedding present ever."

Tulani laughed. "It suits you."

"Elunara, are you in here?"

"Back this way."

Renwa stuck his head around the door. "We need to talk about your capture."

"That's fine. Take a seat." She gestured to a chair. 

Tulani had gotten used to Renwa, so she just actively ignored him. Zelinnia ducked further under the water. 

"We can do this another time." 

"Sit, I'd rather speak now, while I'm relaxed."

"Do you have no shame?" Zelinnia grumbled.

"Honey, Johnathan and I are old friends. And the only reason I don't stroll around town naked, is it might offend other people. My body is just a tool that I use."

"She would." Tulani said offhandedly.

"Night Elves are weird." She muttered.

Renwa laughed. "She is not like any other Night Elf that has ever lived.

"In fact," Elunara grinned. "I was banished from my home, for being... too weird."

"By her own mother." Tulani added.

"Ouch." Zelinnia frowned. 

"Back to the matter at hand." Renwa frowned. "How did they get to you?"

"I'm not entirely sure. I know that they caught me off guard. Judging from the lump on my head when I woke up, they cracked me pretty good."

"Soldier, report."

"Sir. I woke up in a secluded tent. I could see nothing from the inside except a pair of burly guards on my tent. Lorros was there when I woke. He treated me like an abused child. I went for brave but grateful, this seemed to be the attitude he expected from me. I tried the pee tactic, but found Lorros himself escorting me. He was paranoid, sir. Deeply paranoid. While he didn't directly stare at me, he did not let me out of his sight. The tent walls were buried into the ground so I could not escape there either. The only two times he led me out, He blocked my view so that I could see nothing of where I was, only snow."

"Hmm."

"There were always two guards outside my door at all times. No one was allowed in or out and should I approach the door, I was shoved backwards. He spent the night in the tent, and the guards stayed there. He never shared anything with me. He treated me as if I was a child he had rescued, yet he always had sex with me and then pinned me under him. It was a ritual of sorts. He did nothing that wasn't directly related to sex with me. I tried all standard bargaining methods and he wasn't hearing it. I was not allowed paper, or pretty much anything."

"What was he doing there?"

She shook her head. "I could gather nothing from him. He rarely spoke. He usually tore off whatever I was wearing and had at me, went to sleep on top of me, and left in the morning. There were no grooming habits that I was even aware of." 

Tulani slid her hand over Elunara's.

"When I asked for a visitor or a friend, he shoved Zelinnia in my tent, and then refused to let her leave. She became as trapped as I was." 

"It was awful." Zelinnia mumbled.

"When I tried to give him an excuse to release her, he tried to kill her for not being a satisfactory companion." Elunara sighed. "He was paranoid. To levels I could only guess at. I did what I could, but it meant nothing. He seemed to think I was a pathetic child that needed protecting. When I saw a green fleck I thought might be Thrall, I let out a whistle. This seemed to enrage Lorros. I talked him back down, but once the troops attacked, I was able to summon my dagger and deal with my guards." She looked up at Renwa. "Was... anyone hurt because of me?"

He sighed. "We lost 3 good men." 

"Bring me their names later." She bit her lip.

"I will."

"Zelinnia." Elunara turned to the Blood Elf. "What can you tell us of Lorros?"

"He was goddamned crazy is what he was." She muttered. "I'll agree to paranoid. He had been training at the Horde base camp, but his methods were... questionable. He had it out with Thrall and the Frostwolves a few times. He believed that he had to train men harder and faster. He wanted an army YESTERDAY. He was brutal. After a falling out, he was moved to the camp you are aware of, and troops sent up." She shivered. "He didn't believe in separation of class. Mages trained with warriors, who trained with rogues. Everyone was the same. If you didn't make the cut..." She rubbed her arm. "One day, I screwed up, I was using a sword I had no business using. I dropped it, cut the ankle of another soldier..." She sighed. "He broke my arm. Just snapped it like a twig."

Tulani shifted in the tub and hugged Zelinnia. "I'm so sorry."

"Uhh, yeah." Zelinnia wiggled uncomfortably. "Anyway, I was hiding in the healer tent when I was marched up to Elunara's tent and shoved in. I still can't believe you saved me. Mission specialist or not." She muttered 

Elunara shrugged. "It's in my nature, I guess." She rolled her eyes. "Though it's a recent development." Eyeing Renwa, she considered. "I feel like I should drag you in the water and have my way with you, just to prove I'm not losing my mind."

He flushed. "That won't be necessary." 

"Oh really?" She grinned. "Something else got your attention?"

He stood up. "I will take your report into consideration." He left immediately. 

Elunara grinned at his retreating form. This was going to be fascinating. She looked over and saw Zelinnia glaring at her. "Oh, calm down. I wouldn't have."

Tulani raised her eyebrows, but said nothing. 

Back in Ina's healing room, Ina looked Zelinnia over. "Well, the bone is healing right, though I can tell there's still some swelling. You'll be plenty fine." Ina passed Elunara a mug. "Chug it."

"Can I get two?" Elunara shrugged. "Just in case."

Ina shook her head. "I gave you a double strength shot. Anyone else would probably be laid out on the floor, but I know you."

Elunara nodded and chugged down the liquid.

"Do I want to know?" Zelinnia eyed Elunara.

"Birth control."

"Ah." She shuddered. 

"Come on," She sat the cup down. "I want to make sure that every person in town knows your face. It was hard enough getting people to trust Grogek. But, you're Horde. We have a long standing distrust of the Horde, it's going to be a tough road for you." 

"Elunara?" Tulani's voice was low. "Can I stay with you?"

Elunara wrapped her arms around Tulani and smiled. "Gladly. But tomorrow, you have to go back to your work. We can't let Lorros' stupidity hover over our heads."

Tulani nodded. 

Tulani and Elunara walked hand in hand. Zelinnia couldn't help but feel a little jealous. 

"So Zel," Elunara began. "What did you used to do?"

"What?"

"Well, in order to find out how you fit in here, we need to assess what you're best at."

Tulani smiled. "Before I was captured, I used to sew. Now I work for Eloise."

"If you don't find something to do, you'll go nuts." Elunara nodded. 

Zelinnia sighed. "Well, I don't know. I mean, I studied as a mage because it helped control the cravings, but beyond that, I didn't do too terribly much."

"Cravings?" Tulani asked.

"Blood elves crave magic like a dying man craves water." Elunara shrugged. 

"Or you crave sex?" Tulani giggled and Elunara just grinned.

"Mostly, I was just a port bitch." Zelinnia sighed. "I came out here thinking I'd be better off, and discovered myself in a mess."

"I was just a horny Night Elf who liked to draw." Elunara grinned. "I turned it into a marketable skill. When I was kicked out of Darnassus, I turned to Stormwind, and worked the SI:7 for awhile, and eventually became a trained operative who used her body to get what she wanted, and returned information for the Alliance. It all takes you somewhere, if you just find what you like, and keep working at it."

"Well, I can't draw, and I don't intend to do... that with my body." Zelinnia curled up her nose.

"Renwa wants to do... "that" to your body." Elunara grinned.

Zelinnia flushed and crossed her arms. "Not a chance."

Elunara shrugged. "You should know. Renwa is the marrying type. It's why we didn't work." 

"How do you know that?"

"We've known each other for a long time, and yes, I've had him in every way imaginable." She grinned. "But, he had it in his mind that he could stop me from... well, being who I am. He gave up on that pursuit some time ago. I know he'd be dog faithful to whomever he married." 

"A human and a Blood Elf?" She scoffed. "Wouldn't happen."

Elunara scoffed. "And a Night Elf marrying an Orc, with a Draenei lover is the most legitimate thing you've ever seen?" She raised an eyebrow.

Zelinnia just stared. "You have me there." She finally admitted.

Elunara stopped and sighed. "Louis, get your ass out here, right now." 

He came out from behind a building. "Aww, how did you know it was me?"

"Because I recognize your footsteps, and you blunder around like a baby cow."

"Jerry said I was getting better."

Elunara snorted. "He also dotes on you." She shook her head. "I'm going to have to teach you how to stealth walk."

He rubbed the toe of his boot in the dirt. "But you have that Night Elf thing..."

"Being able to track a target quietly is essential. You don't have to be a Night Elf to do it." She sighed. "I'm not going to get kidnapped again."

"But you might!" He clenched his fists. "And we can't have any more slip ups."

Elunara sighed. "Sweetie, shit happens. It's the way of the world. No one knew Lorros had gone crazy." She grabbed Louis's shirt. "Now, about coming out while I was gone." She growled.

He flushed. "It was an accident. We didn't even think about who was around." He flapped his hands. "It just happened!"

She sighed and let him go. "MONTHS!" She tossed up her hands. "MONTHS of trying to get you two idiots to just tell everyone. Let me guess, no one was surprised."

He flushed. "Just like you said..." He fiddled his fingers. "I recall there was some cheering..." He bowed his head. "But we were just so embarrassed."

Elunara shook her head. "Months of waiting..." She wrapped an arm around his shoulders. "It's about damned time." 

"We won't be using your room anymore." His blush deepened. "We share a room now."

She shrugged. "Anytime you want to, you can." She smacked him in the head. "Now leave, before I tell Grogek how terrible you sneak."

Louis took off running. 

Zelinnia shook her head. "You have a weird relationship with everyone."

"You have no idea."



For the Whored Ch. 041



The men began to strip down, but one held to the side. 

Mark stood there, completely naked. "Come on, dude. This water is amazing."

"Yeah," He looked around to the town behind them. "I haven't been here as long, not as comfortable with standing around naked in public like you guys."

Jerry shrugged. "New guy." He climbed into the lake behind Louis and leaned back.

Mark snorted as he slid in. "Don't worry, once you've seen Grogek's dick, you won't feel as embarrassed by your own." 

"Maybe he should stop by Elunara's for the full treatment." Gerald snorted.

The new guy took his clothes off and sat them neatly by the water. He slid in after. "Elunara?"

"Grogek's wife." Louis supplied. 

"Maybe you should say that Grogek is Elunara's husband." Gerald rolled his eyes. "We all know who the boss of that one is."

The new guy looked back and forth. "There's someone tougher than Grogek?"

Jerry laughed. "Elunara can be mean as hell when she wants to be." He shook his head. "I'm surprised we didn't get a demonstration when the new people came in."

"Elunara's been busy with her new practice. Since she got back, she's been working up business left and right." Gerald scratched his chin.

"I'm telling you Tom, you need to hit her up. The woman is magic." Mark nodded. "Hey, speak of the devil!" He shifted up so that he was sitting on the edge, and leaned back so that he was proudly displayed. "Hey 'Nara."

Elunara pointed a finger at him. "Do NOT call me Nara. I don't care WHERE you have stuck THAT." She pointed down at his manhood. "YOU have not earned the right to use a nickname. In fact, there are only three people who ever have."

Mark sunk back in the water.

Louis counted fingers. "Grogek, Tulani, and who's three?"

She shrugged. "Renwa."

"Oh." He nodded.

She opened up her other hand and held out a length of chain. "Jerry, you left this on my floor. I had the clasp repaired for you."

"Thank you very much. Leave it on my clothes?"

She nodded and bent down. "I'll put it in your pocket." Elunara turned and left.

"Oh, ho, ho, ho." Gerald laughed. "You pissed her off. I would miss your next appointment if I were you." 

Mark sunk lower in the lake. "Better not, or she'll have my head for being a coward." He muttered

"Hey, Elunara..." Zelinnia winced as she jabbed herself with the needle again. 

"Yeah?" She looked back and forth as she added more detail to her work. 

"I wanted to... Ow. Apologize."

"For what?"

"Back in Ghostlands... I think I killed some of your people."

Elunara shrugged. "I had heard they were sending a contingent in." She shook her head. "But, by that time I had long since been banished from Darnassus. If I even knew any of them, I couldn't tell you."

"Oh." She hissed and pulled the needle out from under her fingernail. "Oh, I can't do this." She shoved the small sewing sample away. 

Tulani picked it up and tucked it into her basket. "It's alright; it's just not your thing to learn." She ran her healing hands over Zelinnia's sore fingers.

"Do you miss your home?" Zelinnia frowned at Elunara.

"Do you?" Her eyebrow rose.

After a moment, Zelinnia sighed. "Kind of. I wasn't exactly the guest of honor, but I do miss the brilliance of Silvermoon. I had some friends, though I long haven't spoken to any of them. You didn't answer my question."

She shrugged. "You just gave my answer." She continued to sketch. "You don't have to find your contribution immediately. Take time to learn about the inner workings of this town, and you will find your place. Though it is safe to say, you have to find something to occupy your time until then, or you'll go mad."

"She likes to watch the men train." Tulani grinned mischievously. 

"Is that what you do when I'm busy?" Elunara grinned. 

Zelinnia flushed. "I... well, I like to watch. Though, I don't like either of you right now." She crossed her arms. 

Elunara laughed. "Ah, how many hours have I spent... just watching the men?" She shrugged.

"Now they make appointments, and hope to get a share of time." Tulani giggled.

"I still don't get you people, and how you're ok with this."

Tulani smiled softly. "Once you accept Elunara for who she is, the rest falls into place." 

Darguni woke up and Tulani went to fetch him. 

"My life was hard earned." Elunara frowned. "People did not understand me, and I did not understand them." 

Tulani returned and began the process of feeding the child.

"So, I made my own way. Each person was a new set of questions. I knew who I was, but I had to explain myself to everyone else. I forged myself as a mission specialist and the questions stopped." She shrugged and continued to work on her drawing. "Anything odd I did, well it was for the good of the Alliance wasn't it?" She rocked her head back and forth. "In the end though, it was my decision to bring Grogek back from the Iron Horde that sealed my fate. He understood me. Not just on a physical level, but on a primal level that even I couldn't reach. Just like me, he took something other considered strange, and made it his own. While I was busy making everyone accept him, he was busy making them accept me." 

"And by time I came along," Tulani smiled. "The tide had turned." She readjusted Darguni. "I didn't understand a thing, but I was attracted to her from the moment she appeared by the wagon. I had heard of this strange artist, who was trying to restore bodies to their families. I wanted..." She shook her head and laughed. "I'm not sure what I wanted. I just thought that she could return my body to me. Slavers had made me a vessel for their entertainment, and I wanted something more. Elunara took me in, cleaned me up and cared for me. She not only restored my body, but she gave it back to me." Tulani pointed at the framed picture. "In spades. She even gave me a child to take care of." Tulani patted Darguni's back.

"That part was not intentional." Elunara snorted. 

Tulani laughed. "Oh stop." She sat the child down on the floor and gave him a toy. "Elunara's screaming could be heard the town over."

"You're exaggerating." Elunara grumbled.

"No. I'm not." She turned to Zelinnia. "You should have seen Grogek, axe in hand, ready to slay whatever vexed Elunara so. I'm told he had to force her mouth shut, just to stop the noise."

Elunara crossed her arms and glared.

"You're joking." Zelinnia managed. 

"Ask Ina, or Grogek." Tulani shrugged.

Elunara snapped her board closed. "Let's go to the hill. I need air."

"So, I have to ask..." Zelinnia looked at Elunara's back. "Did anyone worry about parentage?"

Elunara shrugged as she climbed the hill. "Grogek was the only person who didn't. He openly claimed that it would forever be his son, because it was mine." 

"Wow." She whispered. 

Elunara froze at the top of the hill. "Are you shitting me?"

Zelinnia followed her gaze and stepped backwards. "Is that what I THINK it is?"

Tulani looked around in confusion. "What?"

Elunara shoved Darguni at Tulani and marched down towards the procession. A surprised Tulani juggled Darguni into a more comfortable position before following. Zelinnia stood frozen in fear as she watched the Stormwind crest bob above the heads of a procession of soldiers. Snapping back to present, she rushed to hide behind Elunara. 

Elunara stopped in front of the procession. She knelt on one knee before standing. "King Wrynn it is... good to see you." She finished. 

"Elunara." He raised an eyebrow. "I see one rumor is true. Since when do you follow protocol?"

"Since it might mean something at this moment."

His expression shifted to curiosity. "What might it mean?" He caught the glimpse of red hair hiding behind Elunara. "It appears another rumor is true." 

She looked back and grabbed Zelinnia by the arm and dragged her out. A few guards shifted stance, but Wrynn raised a hand and they relaxed. 

"So you did capture a Blood Elf."

"She is my friend."

His eyebrows shot through his hair. "You have a friend? I thought you said you had no need for them."

"Times change in six years." She remarked mildly. "In fact, I have many friends now."

Zelinnia was squirming, but Elunara's grasp was iron. Tulani finally caught up with a huff. 

"Forgive me, Darguni needed a change."

Elunara ran her hand down the woman's back. "It's alright, Sweetie. I want you to meet the King of Stormwind, and current ruler of the Alliance. King Varian Wrynn. Though I tend to annoy him and call him Varian." She grinned. 

Tulani did her best to curtsey with her bundle. Letting go of Zelinnia, who promptly hid behind her, Elunara plucked the baby from Tulani's hands so she could complete the feat. 

Wrynn continued with his surprised expression. "Is this the orc child I've been told about?

"This is our son, Darguni. You can meet his dad in about..." She looked around. "Five seconds, because here he comes."

Grogek was still slick from sweat, his axe braced over one shoulder as he made his way forward. The men once again shifted stance, but Wyrnn held up a hand. Several soldiers followed along behind Grogek. Once he reached the procession he looked to Elunara.

"Who are they?" He jerked his head, even as his hand brushed down her back.

"I shall repeat, that this is King Varian Wrynn, King of Stormwind. I told you of him."

He dropped his axe, head down and pounded his chest with one fist and bowed. "My King."

Everyone froze, but Varian was able to retain some dignity. "You honor me." He nodded his head. 

Wrynn turned to Elunara. "Where is General Renwa or Captain Jordan?"

"Knowing this town, word will be to them short enough. Come, I will take you to his office. You may leave your parade to rest. I'm certain their path has been tiring. You're safer here than any other place in Draenor." 

Grogek hefted his axe and followed along. "Forgive me." He grunted. "I have been training."

"I can see." He turned to Elunara. "You always did everything big." He remarked.

She grinned. "You know me, sugarbutt."

"Ah, how I missed your little nicknames." He grinned back

"You have him too?" Grogek asked.

She smiled. "There is the distinct possibility, but due to politics, I'm not allowed to speak of it." 

He snorted. "Never liked politics."

Varian shook his head. "I take it he is well aware of your past? As the rumors indicate?"

She snorted. "Sugarlips, he likes to watch."

Grogek grinned and Varian's eyes went huge. 

Elunara waved down the path. "Renwa, honeybear, we were on the way to you."

"And participate." Grogek murmured. "Sweetheart, are you aware that you have something clinging to your back?"

"Yeah, I figure she'll dislodge herself when terror permits."

With his free hand, Grogek plucked Zelinnia from Elunara's back and placed her on his shoulder. "There, now the big bad Alliance leader can't attack you." 

"Shut up." She muttered in embarrassment, as she tried to push her dress down. 

"Do you wish for me to leave you with Tulani?" 

"N-n-no, I'm... fine. Can I stay with Elunara on this one?" She whimpered. 

He laughed. "You're safe here."

"Yeah, but only because Elunara said so." 

He shrugged. "Suit yourself." Grogek dropped his axe out in front of the building and set Zelinnia on the stoop. 

King Wrynn leaned against a wall, while Elunara took her seat. Grogek sat on the floor beside her. 

Zelinnia bolted in and stood behind Elunara, trying to make herself smaller than the Night Elf. "Oh God, I just locked myself in the room with the King of Stormwind. How stupid am I?" She muttered.

Elunara leaned over. "We can hear you, silly. Just breathe. In and out, in and out. Lorros was scarier than this. Hell, Grogek is scarier than both of them. In and out. In and out, that's a good girl." She ran her hand on Zelinnia's head. 

"I've never seen you so affectionate." Varian commented.

Grogek started choking and then burst into laughter. 

Renwa sighed. "Sir, far be it for me to tell you to watch what you say, but Elunara is a different person than we used to know." 

"That is evident." 

Captain Jordan came in. "Sorry I'm late, I was on the far edge dealing with a problem."

Grogek frowned. "What was it?"

Jordan froze and turned to Grogek. He cleared his throat and flushed. "Near as I can tell, Mark decked Terrance for..." Jordan was doing his best to not shake. "Inappropriate comments made about your wife, and Mark's... ah... Manhood." He cleared his throat. "Spectators have a different account, saying that Terrance punched Mark for saying he was... the shorter of the two." He avoided looking at Grogek and turned to Renwa. "Sir, apparently the fight had been going on for ten or fifteen minutes, and I was able to break it up, and I've since assigned both men to latrine duty for the foreseeable future."

Elunara sighed. "I'll find the appropriate papers." 

Grogek snorted. "Morons. I'll work it out of them."

Captain Jordan frowned. "Well, I dealt with the situation in the way I felt best..."

Grogek nodded. "I agree with your assessment, it doesn't mean I won't give them extra training on top of it. Discipline is a problem."

Elunara tapped her fingers on her knee. "I think those morons have the same measurements." She shook her head. "I'll get to the bottom of it." She turned to Jordan. "Are you ever going to breathe easy when we're both in the same room with you?"

Jordan flushed. "I... would prefer to not discuss this in present company."

She shrugged. "Dippy, you think too much."

"Dippy?" Varian looked back and forth.

Grogek snorted. "Not a nice name." He cracked his neck.

"Did you bonk him too?" Came from a small voice from the corner.

"Zel, sweetie, I'll get you a list of the men I haven't slept with, it's shorter."

"Could we not talk about this?" Jordan ground out. 

"I'm finding the topic quite fascinating myself." Wrynn said. 

"Elunara, you are my constant headache." Renwa sighed. 

She snorted. "By this point, I'm surprised you don't shove your fingers in your ears and yell "lalala" every time I open my mouth."

"Because I'd be doing nothing but." 

With another snort she popped open her board and began to draw. 

"Sir." Renwa turned to Varian. "Forgive me for all of... that. And let's get back to the matter at hand. You've come a long way from Stormwind, may I ask why?"

"I've have received your fascinating reports, as well as reports from all over Draenor. Your men are outperforming all men across the board. Rumors abound on the things you haven't reported. How Elunara has an Iron Horde Orc under her complete control and treats him like a kitten. As well as the rumor that she took in a Draenei lover who now cares for her orc child. Most recently I heard of the Blood Elf pet joining the crew."

Zelinnia jolted up. "I AM NOT A PET!" She stopped and stared before bolting back down. 

"It appears that this is crazier than I originally believed." He eyed the flushed Jordan.

"Hear that, Sugarbear? You're my widdle kitten."

He laughed. "Well, you do make me purr."

"You know, I could fashion some little cat ears, because that'd be hilarious."

He pointed at her. "I protest going outside in them."

"Aw, but it'd be adorable!" She rubbed his bald head.

Renwa clapped his hands. "Focus, Elunara. Don't make me get Tulani in here."

She narrowed her eyes. "Ok, that's low."

"Tulani?" Zelinnia popped her head up. 

"Tulani is the only known person who has stopped Elunara mid-rant." 

Zelinnia considered. "My respect for her has increased..."

Elunara pointed down. "Don't YOU start."

Varian sighed. "Elunara, in your history, have you ever done anything the way you are supposed to?"

"I totally knelt when you arrived."

"Aside from that."

She considered a moment before snorting. "Did you forget I got myself banished from Darnassus?" 

"Last I spoke to Tyrande Whisperwind, you were on speaking terms."

"Yeah, well, mother was just happy to have a grandchild I suppose." 

Zelinnia stared. "Your MOTHER IS TYRANDE WHISPERWIND???" She shrieked.

Elunara winced. "Ears, dammit." She rubbed hers. "Yeah, it's not exactly a pleasant topic for me." 

"She told me that she had forgiven the incident with Fandral." 

"You had sex with Fandral?" Zelinnia gawked.

"Oh please, I DO have some standards... I fucked his son."

"Who have I been living with?" She whispered. 

Elunara snorted. "You haven't been there a full month; of course this stuff hasn't come up yet."

"Why did I want to marry you?" Renwa mumbled under his breath.

Elunara pointed at him. "I heard that. And Ouch."

"What did he say?" Grogek frowned. 

"You can be the most frustrating person to deal with, Lu."

"You didn't say that the last time I was under you."

He snorted. "You were better behaved as a mission specialist."

"I wasn't referring to work."

Zelinnia put her hands on her ears. "I did not want to hear that."

Varian stepped into the center of the room. "CHILDREN." He boomed. "I did not come here to listen to your bickering," He turned to Elunara. "Or your prancing." He glared at her. "I'm pretty sure everyone in this room has seen you naked, we don't need a rehash." He turned an eye to Zelinnia. "Present company excluded."

"No." Zelinnia tightened her arms around her legs. "I've seen her naked too." 

Varian raised an eyebrow. 

"She... gave herself to my captor. So he wouldn't kill me. Or see me, for that matter."

He stopped and stared at Elunara. "Is this true?"

She shrugged, though her hand dropped to Grogek's shoulder. When he placed his hand over hers, she looked up. "A mission is a mission, I was just reducing casualties."

Zelinnia stood up and balled her fists. "Don't EVER say that again! Ok? I was THERE! I saw it." She wrapped her arms around herself. "I saw what you did for me, I... I saw what you did. What it did to you." She dropped her hands to her side. "I've never seen eyes so dead..." She whispered in horror.

The silence hung in the air. Grogek's grip tightened on Elunara's hand. Zelinnia almost jumped out of her skin when the King of Stormwind put a hand on her shoulder. 

"Thank you for telling us this." He said quietly. "To help us understand what kind of person she is."

"I..." She shuddered. "I die a little," She sniffled. "Every time she calls it nothing." She used the back of her hand to wipe at the tears. 

Someone produced a cloth, and Varian took it and wiped Zelinnia's face. "It's alright now." 

Renwa was standing. "Zelinnia, do you need me to escort you home?"

She shook her head and took the cloth. "No. No, I'm sorry for interrupting again." 

"Besides," Elunara held up her arm with a smile. "I got my revenge in the end." 

Varian blinked at the bangle on her arm. "Is that teeth?"

"Lorros' teeth to be exact." She rubbed her hand on Grogek's shoulder. "When they came to rescue me, I had the last word, and Grogek had the last blow. He had this made for me, from Lorros' head." 

"I have no words." Varian finally said.

"Most don't, when it comes to Elunara and Grogek." Renwa shrugged. "We're proud to have the both of them, even if they are often more trouble than they're worth." He eyed Elunara, who stuck her tongue out at him. 

"Well, that's exactly why I am here. To see the little operation these two have managed to put together out here." 

Elunara stood up. "I'll be glad to show you around, however I should warn you." 

"Oh?"

"Being seen with me in public is disastrous to any reputation. It won't be considered speculation, it will be common knowledge."

Grogek grinned. "Elunara started a sexual healing practice." He shrugged. "None of us can possibly explain it in a way that won't take charts and graphs, just be assured, basically everyone has benefited from her... unique services." He stood as well. "I'm her best customer." He smirked.




For the Whored Ch. 041



"In every imaginable way." She purred.

Varian raised an eyebrow. "I was under the impression that Orcs were jealous and protective of their mate's affections."

"While this is technically true, only a fool would find himself jealous of anything Elunara does." 

"Fair enough."

"Besides, everyone knows that she is MY vicious little she-wolf in all the ways that matter to me." He shrugged and stepped outside. He hefted his axe.



For the Whored Ch. 042



Jerry ran up, out of breath. "El...nar...a"

She stepped outside. "Jerry, I swear I have to work on your endurance." 

Jerry spotted the King and made his salutes. He turned back to Elunara. "I'm sorry, but Terrance and Mark are at it again. We tried to pull them apart, but I gave up and came for you."

She growled as she followed alongside the exhausted Jerry. "What's going on?"

"It started this morning. Mark has the hots for Jenny, and he was flirting with her, when Terrance, her bother decided to jump in. And I don't know all of it, but Terrance was saying that "Jenny couldn't date anyone who'd put their filthy dick in the whore". I'm sorry." He added rapidly. 

"Well, gee, does that exclude the entire town?" She scoffed. 

He flushed. "I don't know. But, Mark got mad because Terrance said bad things about you. And he said..." Jerry struggled to remember. "Well, it was something like "Terrance was just sore that Terrance's dick was too small to be of any interest to you." His color deepened. "Sorry."

"I kind of like that one." She remarked. They reached a clearing where four people on each side were holding back the two men. They were both yelling obscenities. "SHUT IT, YOU DUMBFUCKS!" She screamed. Everyone at once froze. 

She marched forward and went for Mark. "You! Five seconds, convince me not to gut you."

"Terrance called you a filthy whore, I wasn't having it." 

She nodded. "Next time, Filthy whore is practically a compliment to me." 

He stared. "What?"

With a wave of her hand, she rocked her head back and forth. "I'll explain later. Also, Jenny thinks you're hot; came to me for advice on how to seduce you." 

Varian turned to Grogek. "Aren't you going to do anything?"

Grogek snorted. "They're more afraid of her than me. I threaten them with her."

Renwa nodded. "Grogek may be raw power, but Elunara makes up for it in sheer meanness."

She marched over to Terrance. "Hey little peashit, I've been hearing fun things about you."

Terrance yanked himself free of the other men, who backed to a safe distance. "Stay away from me, whore." 

She snorted. "You know, there's a little orc woman over in Frostfire Ridge, who could teach you a thing or two about creative insults. Because whore? Is the codename I picked for myself when I was running missions for SI:7." 

He spat on the ground. "Am I supposed to be impressed?"

She yanked his pants down to his knees before he knew what was going on. She snorted. "Am I supposed to be impressed?" She mocked. 

He bent down to grab his pants but got her knee to his face. 

"Oops." She called merrily. Grabbing him by the hair, she yanked his head back. "I could slit your throat, but that would be boring." She bent him backwards, as he flailed and grabbed at her. "And messy." She kneed him in the back, then jabbed her fist in his throat. "Instead, it will be WAY more satisfying to utterly humiliate you in front of everyone. Including the King of Stormwind." She knocked his legs out as she let go of his hair. 

"Say hi!" She called merrily, as she stepped on his stomach. "Oh, right, you can't." She grabbed him by the throat. "I'll make your condolences for you." She lifted him to her face. "I should tell you, I like Mark. He's a good kid. Also, your sister has made her own visit to my little practice." She giggled wildly. "You shouldn't make assumptions you little weasel." She dropped him and stepping on his crotch she started to walk off. She turned. "Oh yeah, I agree with Mark. That thing is pathetic." She walked off whistling, her arms behind her head. 

She stopped in front of Varian. "Oh, right. Troops or something." 

He leaned his head to the side. "I should tell you that that is not the right way to discipline a soldier."

"Aw." She patted his cheek. "You think I care."

"Do I even want to know what was said?" Grogek raised an eyebrow.

She reached up and patted his cheek as well. "Nope." She laughed. "In fact, Mark was more insulted for me, than I would have been insulted. It was adorable."

"He called you a whore?" Grogek snorted. 

"FILTHY whore. Get it right." 

He just laughed. "They really don't learn, do they?"

"Never. It's the best part."

Varian shook his head. "Then why punish him?" 

"It was intent, darling. And circumstance. Shall we start that tour now?" She fluttered her lashes. 

By the end of the day, Varian was quite impressed by the town, Grogek, and even the people's attitude towards Elunara. She led them to their barracks building. Opening the door, she let him go first. 

Tulani was sitting at her desk, sewing. "Darguni is asleep."

Elunara walked over and kissed her. "Sorry I haven't been around today."

"It's alright. I hear you had a bit of fun though." 

She snorted. "I haven't been able to take down a dick in ages."

"I thought you did that every day." Tulani smiled softly.

Elunara froze and then laughed. "You have me there." 

"This is all your work?" Varian looked at the pictures on the wall. 

"Those are more my favorites, rather than my best." She pointed to the shelves. "Everything I've ever done and kept is there." 

"Fascinating goblin picture."

"He was a friend." She said quietly. 

"Oh." He frowned and continued on. "Oh. Oh, wow this one..." He looked down at Tulani. "Is this you?"

She smiled at him, but kept on sewing. "I am selfish, in that I call it Elunara's finest work."

Elunara kissed her head. "It IS my finest work."

He pulled out a book and began to flip through. "Your skill has vastly improved." Varian put the book down and cleared his throat. "Elunara, is it alright for me to speak in front of Tulani?"

"We have no true secrets." Elunara shrugged.

He seriously doubted that, if the Blood Elf was any indication. "Why does Jordan act so odd around you?"

"Well, it's more me and Grogek at the same time. One or the other, he can handle." She sighed. "He just hasn't been the same since the threesome."

Varian blinked. "Excuse me?"

"So, Jordan was getting what everyone around here affectionately call the "full treatment", when Grogek walks in. Jordan of course assumes the worst and freezes. Grogek, amused by it, joins in." She shook her head back and forth. "I won't go into details, but the end result is that Jordan liked it a little more than HE thinks he should have." 

Tulani giggled. "Most do."

Elunara nodded. "He almost left town. He was trying to quit when I cornered him and gave him the what for. He grew a spine about it, but only if he doesn't have to face us both." 

"Huh." 

"For once, I have no idea what to do about him, aside from chastising him about it. That usually works for a day or two." 

"Jordan is a good man, worked for me for a time. It's unsettling to see him so rattled."

She snorted. "You and me both. Renwa was quite pissed off at me that I ruined his best man. He's still not happy with me on that one."

"And you and Renwa? How is that?"

"We're just friends now." She shrugged. "We had some tensions, but we worked it out. Had a few bangs, but now I think he doesn't even see me that way anymore. I'm not just another troop, but certainly not a pursuit of his affections."

Tulani giggled again. "He's a little diverted at the moment."

Elunara grinned. "Oh yeah, he is. It's painfully obvious that Zelinnia and Renwa have sexual chemistry. I'm just trying to figure out how best to foster it."

"A human and a Blood Elf?" Varian sounded skeptical. 

"Dear god, what part of a Night Elf and an ORC makes sense?" Elunara threw her hands up.

"Alright, alright. I see your point." He held up his hands. "But you can make anything work for you. Including this." He gestured to Tulani.

She smiled at him. "Glad to be included." 

"Oh, you know I include you whenever possible."

She giggled. "That you do."

Varian scrunched his face. "Even..."

Tulani shook her head. "Not that. Never that." She considered. "Well, I have been involved in her exploits with Grogek, but not often." She paused and turned to Elunara. "Do I even want to know about the rope?"

Elunara looked guilty. "Best not to ask."

She nodded. "As long as it was pleasurable."

"It was AMAZING." 

Tulani smiled. "I'm glad."

Elunara turned back to Varian. "I'd offer to let you stay here tonight, but Tippy the innkeeper might strangle me in my sleep if I let her miss such a priceless opportunity. Tomorrow, Grogek and I are due for a demonstration."

"Demonstration?"

"Oh good, I'll get Darguni and head up the hill. Everyone's been asking when you'll do one next."

"We beat the shit out of each other for everyone's amusement. If you talk to Gerald, there's a betting pool. One of the tamer ones, I should say." 

"I won the last one." Tulani smiled. 

Elunara froze and stared at the woman. "Which one."

"South orchard." 

Elunara was completely stunned. "How?"

"Well, you had a good deal of mean built up, it was simply a matter of guessing a higher number than everyone else."

"What's south orchard?" Varian looked back and forth and was surprised to see Elunara's color rise. 

"Elunara and Grogek beat the snot out of each other, except more naked, and the weapons are fleshy."

Varian's eyes were huge as he turned to Elunara, who was still staring at the Draenei in embarrassment. He raised an eyebrow and grinned. "There's something you can be embarrassed about?"

"Fuck no; I'm trying to comprehend Tulani winning the freaking betting pool. I... I thought you avoided watching?" She frowned. 

"Well, when you two are being meaningful, it a beautiful thing to watch." She shrugged. "Watching you has helped me deal with what they did to me. However, I didn't actually watch it; I just gave Gerald my bet." She beamed at Elunara.

Elunara put a hand to her mouth. "I'm going to have to think on that one for awhile." She muttered.

"He did mutter something about cheating, but I didn't catch it." Tulani continued to sew.

"Oh," Elunara laughed. "I almost ripped his nuts off when I caught him cheating his bets. He doesn't bet on me anymore."

Varian shook his head and sighed. "So you're telling me that you and the Orc,"

Elunara glared at him.

He held up his hands. "Grogek, go engage in sex in a public places, so that people can bet on it?"

She shrugged. "Technically, we go to the south orchard and everyone pretends they're being sneaky and sits on the hills to get a glimpse. Gerald started the bets. It just kind of grew from there."

He shuddered. "Glad I won't be hanging around for THAT."

"The funny thing is..." Tulani smiled. "Due to the nature of how things work around here, people wind up pretty even. After a major event of any sort, someone winds up on top, but loses it the next time around." She shrugged. "It's all low wagers and fairly friendly."

"What EXACTLY did you bet?" Elunara eyed her suspiciously.

"My bet was that you and Grogek would go longer than anyone else bet." She gave a mischievous grin. "It was such a vague and farfetched bet, that it was accepted."

Elunara cackled. "How much did you win?"

"150g" 

"Damn, Tu. I'm impressed." Elunara shook her head. 

"No ma'am." Tulani shook her head. "Seven hours is impressive." 

Varian looked back and forth. "Seven hours is referring to sexcapades?"

"Yeah, but that was a few months ago." Elunara shrugged. "We haven't come close since, or wanted to for that matter. We almost killed each other."

Tulani giggled. "You were in such pain, and too stubborn to cancel extra activities."

"That's... kind of terrifying."

"Come on Varian." Elunara laughed. "Let's get you to the inn so that Tippy can die of joy." She winked. "And you can have terrible, terrible dreams of my... exploits."

The next morning, Varian stood with Renwa on a platform near the ring. Zelinnia was also beside Renwa as they watched the action.

"Do they do this often?" 

"At least once a month." Renwa nodded. "It serves its purposes."

"I can see that." 

"Tulani keeps the baby up there, out of harm's way. That's also where Elunara likes to sit and draw the men."

"I've seen her recent work it is impressive." Varian considered. "The men that train here have better muscle definition than men trained purely in Azeroth."

"Even veterans of our wars come here to get trained by Commander Grogek. He's the reason we're doing so well in Draenor at this time."

"I'm beginning to believe it, and quite frankly, there's a secondary reason I've come here."

"Oh?"

Elunara dodged left and jumped her way around Grogek. He swung backwards and she deflected his hit. 

"We're going to have to train more." Elunara called.

"Oh? Why's that?" Grogek asked.

"Our moves are starting to get predictable." 

She jumped in the air and he grabbed her by the wrist, yanking her forward. He momentarily dropped his axe and grabbed her around the waist. He jammed his mouth to hers and assaulted. There were whistles among the crowd. 

"Predict that?" He grinned.

She head butted him and then kicked off his chest. "Or that?" She teased. 

He roared at her and scooped his axe back up. They tore at each other for awhile before Grogek sunk his axe in the ground. He charged at her. They grappled back and forth before she grabbed a fang and yanked his face to hers. When she was finished, she grinned. 

"That was for earlier."

He licked her face. "So was that." He laughed. 

She wiped the saliva off her face. "Oh, now you're in for it."

"That's enough, you two!" Renwa called out. "Better stop you both before you strip naked in town... again."

Grogek and Elunara grinned at each other.

"I have an announcement." Varian called out. Everyone got quiet, watching. "I came out to substantiate some bizarre rumors. What I found was beyond expectations. While, I can't agree to some of the practices out here, this isn't Stormwind. In fact, you live in a primal and savage world, and are doing your best to live here. The men I see today, and have seen in other Alliance towns, are stronger than the men I sent here. Most of which are in part to Commander Grogek. I wonder how much of it is due to Elunara's hand as well."

A few men snickered. 

"Therefore, it is with great pride that I welcome Grogek into the Alliance, as our newest General of the Alliance."

All eyes turned to the stunned pair in the ring. Grogek stepped forward and went down on one knee. 

"Rise, General Grogek." He smiled and nodded. "You shall be welcomed in Stormwind, should you ever choose to visit." He turned his attention to Elunara. "You are a different matter. I should like to let everyone know, that no matter what title I tried to give Elunara, she would refuse it, as she has in the past, and I am certain she will continue to do so. However, I'm going to give her one anyway." He grinned. "I am naming you the official Envoy to Draenor. Which..." His grinned widened. "Puts her just a smidge above General Grogek."

Everyone chuckled. 

"All of that being said, this does not mean that General Renwa or Captain Jordan are leaving or have changed their roles. General Renwa and Captain Jordan will maintain their current roles in town. Nothing will truly change, as General Grogek surveys his troops, and General Renwa continues to oversee the town. Now, I will allow you to congratulate them." He stepped back. 

The crowd converged on the stunned pair. 

Renwa leaned to Varian. "Five gold says she protests." 

"I've heard all about this town's little gambling problem. I think I'll pass." 

Grogek snorted. "Envoy?"

She started laughing. "Oh Elune, that's priceless. I wonder if I get to pick my duties." 

He snorted again. "They've given you more excuses, you'll be unbearable now." He grinned at her.

"Envoy is a bit of a bullshit term, isn't it?" Gerald frowned. 

"You well know they tried to make me Captain years ago." Elunara rolled her eyes. "This they get to make stick, because I'm not in charge of anything. He only said that I had more power than Grogek to make a point."

"Well, I think it's awesome." Said Jerry. 

"Maybe I will see this Stormwind of yours." Grogek mused. 

"You'd come back though, right?" This from Louis. 

Grogek laughed. "This is my home. I'd never leave it for long."

Varian put a hand on Grogek's shoulder. "You have earned the title from what I have seen. I will make my intentions known when I return." He dropped his hand and turned to Elunara. "I will not budge on this one. You'd earned title and rank time and time again. You'll just have to accept the post."

She snorted. "I'm already plotting how to make this work for me."

He turned back to Renwa. "Damn, I should have taken your bet, I would have won."

Renwa raised an eyebrow. "Elunara can surprise anyone." 

Varian laughed. "Well, I must return home."

"Say hi to Anduin." Elunara grinned.

"I will consider it." He narrowed his eyes at her.

She held up her hands. "Hey, too young for my tastes. He's a good kid."

Varian nodded. "Be well."



For the Whored Ch. 043



Tulani closed the door and nodded to the man across the street. She just had to catch up on her missed work. Thankfully, Elunara had Darguni today. She hummed to herself as she cut across the way. 

Hands came out of the dark and grabbed her. She froze in terror as she was slammed against a wall, a hand covered her mouth and the other clamped on her throat. She struggled, still clinging to her basket. He slammed her against the wall again. 

"Stop it." He growled, as he knocked the basket to the ground.

Tears streamed down her face. "Why are you doing this?" She whispered.

He slammed her again. "Your stupid whore ruined my life, ruined my family! I will take everything from her, starting with you."

"Please, no." Tulani whispered. 

He struck her. "You will keep quiet!" He looked around. "I don't really want to sully myself with your nasty body, but I think it'll serve just the right message."

Her eyes widened as his threat sank in. She began to struggle against him, kicking out wildly. Her hoof gouged his knee and tore his pants. He released her as he grabbed for his leg. She tried to run past, but he grabbed a fist full of her dress and knocked her to the ground. He climbed on top of her and pinned her to the ground. She flailed her head and a horn caught him in the mouth. He backhanded her. She flailed her hands for anything, and grabbing the handle of her basket, clobbered him on the side of the head. She tried to work her way free, but a jab to her ribs had her crying out. 

"You stupid bitch!" He growled as he tore at her dress. 

Zelinnia could have sworn she'd heard Tulani nearby. She knew the Draenei was in distress, but how or why escaped her. She frantically looked around. Zelinnia debated getting Elunara when she rounded the corner. A man had pinned Tulani to the ground, their clothes were torn and Tulani struggling against him.

"YOU BASTARD!" Zelinnia screamed, as she fire blasted him in the face. She hit him with a fireball and then kicked him in the face for good measure.

Tulani scrambled backwards as Zelinnia's screaming brought the attention of others. Zelinnia had pinned the man to the ground, was sitting on his chest and holding a fireball in his face. "Move. I dare you." She hissed.

"Stupid whore." He spit. 

"What is going on?" Jordan frowned down at Tulani. 

Someone had found a blanket and wrapped it around the tear streaked woman. 

Elunara marched down the way. Mrs. Finister had shown up at her door and said Tulani and Zelinnia were in trouble. She arrived to find a man in chains, while Tulani was crying on Zelinnia. Someone had gathered Tulani's basket and she was clinging to it like a life line.

"WHAT HAPPENED?" She growled. 

Renwa intercepted her. "From what we get from Tulani, Terrance attacked her and Zelinnia saved her."

"He wanted..." Tulani hiccupped. "He wanted to punish you."

Elunara turned her attention to Terrance and growled. 

Renwa put his hands on her shoulders. "We will handle this with some civility." He looked back. "Jordan, take him to the training ring, have him sat there." He looked back to Elunara. "I know how angry you are, but you will calm down. Now." He added firmly. "Handle Tulani. She needs you to take her home." 

Elunara dismissed the bastard for now, and stooped down beside Tulani. "Come on my sweetness, let's get you cleaned up."

Grogek looked around and frowned. Renwa and Jordan were marching a man in chains. A villager was holding a chair. 

"I want this area cleared off for now." Renwa ordered. 

The chair was sat in the middle of the training ring and the man chained to the chair. The tatters of his clothes were removed. Renwa went to Grogek and put a hand on his shoulder. 

"I hate to tell you this, but..." He looked back at the naked man. "Tulani was attacked." Renwa tightened his grip. "We will handle this with some civility."

Renwa looked around and motioned to the men who stepped away. "This man is to be left alone." He addressed the yard. "No food, water, or shelter until we have chosen how best to deal with him." 

"Don't worry." Grogek growled. "None of MY men will go near the bastard."

The three women were in the large bath. Elunara ran a soapy rag on the back of Tulani's neck. Zelinnia was washing Tulani's arms. 

"There's my girl, we'll get you all cleaned up." Elunara smiled and kissed Tulani's cheek. 

"I'm sorry." She whimpered.

"For what?" Elunara put soap in Tulani's hair and began to scrub. 

"That I'm not strong enough."

"You were plenty strong." Zelinnia smiled. "You were giving him all you got."

Tulani frowned. "It wasn't enough... he wanted..." He started hiccupping again. 

"Hey, hey, stop." Elunara wrapped her arms around Tulani. "You did good work. I saw some of the mess he had."

"I want to be stronger." Tulani sniffled.

"Well, I can teach you. Teach you the best ways to fight back." 

Tulani turned her head toward Elunara. "I don't want you to think me weak." 

"Sweetheart, you're stronger than you think you are." 

Tulani turned and wrapped her arms around Elunara's neck. "I don't want you to stop." 

Elunara blinked. "Stop what?" 

"Loving me." Tulani sobbed.

"I couldn't possibly." Elunara gasped; hurt that Tulani could think such a thing. She pushed Tulani back and put her hands on Tulani's cheeks. "You light my life. I could never stop loving you."

"That's..." Tulani sniffled. "Not what I mean."

"Then what?"

"When... When Lorros took you, you didn't stop. Not once, even though he hurt you." She wiped her cheek. "I know what you said. But, I knew... I knew what was true." She shook her head. "But still, you never stopped."

"Oh." Elunara blinked. "Oh!"

Tulani launched forward, her mouth on Elunara's. Zelinnia blushed and scooted backward, feeling awkward. 

Elunara ran her hands down Tulani's backside. "I'll give you whatever you need." She murmured. 

"I want you." Tulani whispered. "I want you more than anything I have ever wanted in my life." She pressed her lips to Elunara's and pressed in.

Elunara pulled on Tulani's hips and moved her over her leg. She pressed her leg up into Tulani's crotch. 

Zelinnia watched in fascination as the two women devoured each other, hands moving everywhere on soapy skin. She tried to look away, but found herself inexplicably drawn to the action. The heat rose in her face. "Maybe I should go." She whispered, embarrassed. 

Tulani turned her head back. "I'm so sorry." She frowned. "You saved me, and I forgot you." Tulani wiggled free of Elunara and wrapped her arms around Zelinnia. "Thank you so much."

Zelinnia's face felt like it was on fire. "No, really. It's... ah, it's ok. I swear." She slipped her hands between them, but found her hands on Tulani's breasts. "Ah. Um, I..." She was having difficulty removing herself. 

Elunara scooted over. "I think..." She whispered. "Someone is a little more intrigued than she wants to be." She grinned and dislodged Zelinnia's hands. "But, we wouldn't want you trapped in a situation you don't want to be in." 

"Well, I just..." Zelinnia swallowed the rock in her throat. Holding the rag to her chest, she bit her lip. "I am very confused." She admitted weakly. 

Elunara chuckled. "Sweetie, take it from me. Just because you prefer men, doesn't mean you can't find a... situation a turn on. I'm not saying you'll ever want your own girlfriend, but I didn't even consider women until I found my Tulani." She kissed Tulani's cheek. "Besides, it just means we appealed to you on a physical level. That part of you that wants to experience the same treatment." 

"Maybe." Zelinnia shrunk backwards. If she could blush any harder, she surely accomplished it. "I didn't mean to... um..."

Elunara laughed. "It's a little hard for you to have done anything wrong here." She put her hand on the ledge behind Zelinnia's head. "But, if you ever want some... instruction, I'm always available." She whispered. 

Tulani laid her head on Zelinnia's shoulder, sliding an arm behind her. "I would help too." She smiled.

Elunara raised an eyebrow. "Why Tulani, I've never heard you talk like that."

"But, I like her. She saved me. I like when people save me." She blushed. 

Elunara laughed. "You got me there." 

Zelinnia looked back and forth. "You two are so confusing." She mumbled. She felt her hand come up behind Tulani's back. She stroked the Draenei's back. "I couldn't let him hurt you." 

Elunara shook her head and smiled, sliding in beside Zelinnia. "Tulani has that effect on people."

"Yeah, I guess." Zelinnia stared in fascination at the two women on either side of her. Both had linked their arms behind her back. Tulani's head rest on her shoulder, her other hand harmlessly on Zelinnia's thigh. Elunara was much more imposing. Her hand was also on Zelinnia's thigh, but a lot closer to a private area, and if Zelinnia gave any indication, she knew that the hand would keep going. 

Zelinnia looked into Elunara's curious face. "I..." Slowly, she slid her arm behind Elunara, placing her hand on the woman's hip. 

"You know, little flower..." Elunara brushed her fingers against Zelinnia's wet hair. "You tread on dangerous waters."

She jolted at the touch. "I am aware." She whispered. 

Elunara slid her fingers up and down Zelinnia's soft flesh. She leaned forward and lightly brushed her lips against Zelinnia's. Tulani grinned and pressed kisses against Zelinnia's neck. Elunara explored Zelinnia's mouth with her tongue, and slipped a finger inside. 

Zelinnia wiggled and moaned against Elunara's mouth. 

Tulani cupped one hand on Zelinnia's breast and the other on her ass. Tulani pressed her lips to Zelinnia's neck and shoulder, moving down to her collarbone. 

Zelinnia arched back against the ledge. 

Elunara played with the soft folds using her fingers, and kept Zelinnia's mouth occupied. 

Zelinnia broke contact and gasped. 

"Oh, we don't want to kill her on her first go." Elunara grinned and lightly licked Zelinnia's unoccupied shoulder. 

Zelinnia clenched her legs together, her hands clamping down on the two women. 

"There we go." Elunara whispered. When she could, she freed her hand from Zelinnia's crotch. 

Zelinnia laid her head on the ledge and stared at the ceiling. "Oh Gods, is it always like that?"

Elunara grinned. "When done right." 

Tulani laughed. "With Elunara, it's always good." She dipped her hand down and brushed her own fingers across Zelinnia's hair. "Perhaps next time, I could try." 

Zelinnia twitched. "May... maybe." She whispered.

"You know..." Elunara grinned at Tulani. "We never finished you." 

Tulani bowed her head and grinned. "I guess we got a little distracted." 

Elunara shifted toward Tulani, wrapping her arms around her lover. She captured her mouth and ran her hands up and down Tulani's back. With one hand, she pulled Tulani into her lap and the other, slipped her fingers inside. Elunara worked her mouth down Tulani's throat and to her shoulders and across her collar bone. She pushed Tulani against the wall of the bath and cupped her breast in on hand, the other hand working Tulani's folds. She sucked on the nipple, and teased the breast with her hand. 

Watching with complete fascination, Zelinnia surprised herself when she cupped Tulani's other breast. The Draenei opened her eyes and smiled at Zelinnia before leaning her head back completely and arching against Elunara's hand. Curiosity drove her to gently lick the nipple. Tulani's hand came up and rubbed Zelinnia's own tender nipples. She tried to mimic Elunara with some success.

"Come up." Elunara murmured. She helped Tulani up on to the ledge. Tulani spread her legs, and leaned back against the wall. 

"What is that?" Zelinnia whispered, despite herself. 

"Slaver tattoo." Elunara murmured, before placing her lips on the ugly marks. She kissed her way to Tulani's center. She used a rag to wash the insides of Tulani's legs, and rubbed her thoroughly with the rag. Tulani moaned and arched. With a grin, Elunara leaned forward and began to work on Tulani's center with her mouth and tongue. 

Fascinated, but having to idea what else to do, Zelinnia began to wash the rest of Tulani with her rag. She climbed up on the ledge and made a good job of it. Moving the soapy rag over slick skin, washing arms. Legs and torso, playing with Tulani's breasts as she worked. Tulani rocked and arched, grabbing at Zelinnia's leg. Slipping, Zelinnia fell into the giant bathing basin with a splash. She struggled to return to air, but Elunara grabbed her by the shoulder and hauled her up. 

She laughed. "Well, that was fun."

Tulani put a hand to her cheek. "I'll never look at bathing the same again." She looked in the water. "I'm sorry I made you fall."

"That's not exactly the strangest thing that's happened today." Zelinnia shook her head.

Elunara laughed. 

The door burst open and Ina walked in. "I heard a scream."

"Zel slipped and fell." Elunara grinned. 

"I had help." Zelinnia sunk in the water.

Ina grabbed her chest. "After earlier, you had me worried. Watch your step, girl!" Ina pointed. She stomped out.

Elunara laughed. "That was Ina speak for "I'm glad you're ok." 

Zelinnia blushed. "Still wasn't my fault."

She grinned. "Don't worry, we won't tell. Come on, let's get rinsed off."



For the Whored Ch. 044



Zelinnia felt a little better, being back in her own clothes. She looked at Tulani who was standing there looking down at the shredded heap. Zelinnia put her hand on the woman's shoulder. "I'm sorry."

Tulani shrugged. "Actually, I didn't like that dress as much as I did the others. That... well, that was the one I was wearing when the women I came with called me a "whore's toy". I kept it, and I wore it, because Elunara gave them to me. Even if they did say horrible things about it." She kicked it with her hoof. "So, I'm not so sad."

Elunara hugged Tulani. "You're never what people try to make you be." She took out a package and handed it to Tulani. "Besides, Eloise and I have been smuggling this thing back and forth for months. It's so hard to surprise you with nice clothes."

Unwrapping the package, she held up the dress. She gasped in shock. "Oh, it's so lovely! But, I can't wear it today."

Elunara snorted. "We're going to go see that asshole, and I want you to look like a Goddess." 

Tulani nodded and tugged the dress over her head. She twisted and turned. "Oh, it's wonderful."

Zelinnia fingered the shimmery material. "I'm incredibly jealous right now."

Elunara laughed. "I shouldn't tell you, but I've already commissioned a piece for the woman who saved my Tulani." Elunara wrapped her arms around the Draenei and nuzzled her neck. 

Elunara and Tulani walked hand in hand and Zelinnia followed behind them. Renwa met them halfway. 

"I have him chained in the training yard, naked. Quite frankly, that's improper of me, but..." He frowned at Tulani. "He hurt one of our prized citizens." He finished lamely. 

Tulani kissed his cheek. "You went with your feelings. I have learned to do that as well." 

Zelinnia stared directly at the ground, tracking Elunara's feet and trying to hide.

"Hey, you and Renwa have something in common." Elunara's whisper was barely audible. 

"Shut up." She mumbled. "You said you wouldn't say."

"And I never will." 

Renwa's hand on her shoulder made her jump about a mile under her skin. "And Zelinnia, thank you for saving our Tulani. Your actions were very brave and commendable."

"Thank you." She mumbled as she shifted uncomfortably.

"Have I done something to offend you?" He cocked his head to the side as he frowned. 

"N-no." She stammered. She looked up and turned scarlet and then stared at her feet again. "No."

Renwa sighed. "Elunara, did you break her?"

Elunara rolled her eyes and shook her head. "I did nothing of the sort. She broke herself." With a giggle, she winked at Zelinnia. "She slipped and fell in the bath. Gave Ina a heart attack."

Renwa chuckled. "That's nothing to be ashamed about."

Zelinnia glared at Elunara. "Wasn't my fault."

"Suuuuurreee..."

Zelinnia crossed her arms and glared. "It was not and you know it."

Elunara leaned over. "Made you stop worrying about... whatever it is that's bothering you." She whispered. 

Zelinnia just stared. 

Renwa looked between Elunara and Zelinnia and came to his own conclusions. He cleared his throat. "In any event, we have not scheduled a trial yet, we wanted to assess Tulani's mental state."

"I'm doing quite fine." Tulani smiled and rubbed up against Elunara. Zelinnia's blush deepened and she looked at her feet. 

Renwa's thought shifted. That must have been a sight to behold. He flushed and tried to return to composure. "Well then, tomorrow we will have a trial. It's getting dark, and he's well enough chained. I have guards around the ring." She gave a sideways glance to Elunara. "More to keep you from killing him, than him escaping."

"Death is too kind." She growled.

He nodded. "In fact, it was a little difficult to post the correct guards. Everyone wants to carve a piece of his hide."

"Even you?" Zelinnia asked. 

Renwa nodded.

"So, you love Tulani?" She furrowed her brow.

"I think everyone does, to some extent. I admit that I may be a little more fond of her than others, but only because I've had dealings with her. That and she is Elunara's." He shrugged. 

"Do you still love Elunara?" Zelinnia heard the question come out of her mouth and she slapped a hand over it. She scooted backwards, reaching out to Elunara. 

Elunara put a hand on her back and shoved her back forward. "Own your question, or it will bother you later." She advised. 

Renwa blinked several times before giving a small chuckle. "I haven't even thought of that question in quite some time. Yes, I do love Elunara to some extent, but no, I do not love Elunara like that. In fact, I rather think of her as just another member of this strange little town we've woven. One that gives me a constant migraine I might add." He shot Elunara a meaningful look.

She held up her hands. "Not me. Not this time."

He considered. He took Zelinnia's hand and smiled. "Perhaps we should discuss ourselves more over a meal." He kissed her hand before releasing it. "I will see everyone tomorrow." 

The entire town stood in a circle around the training area. General Renwa, General Grogek, Captain Jordan, and Tulani stood at one end of the ring. Elunara had convinced Tulani to wear her new dress. She glittered like an angel beside Renwa. In the center, still tied naked to a chair, Terrance stewed in his own juices. 

"Where's the whore?" Terrance called out.

"You don-" Renwa began.

"Right here." Elunara moved through the crowd, flexing her hand so that her dagger appeared. Fist wrapped around the hilt, she moved to the center of the ring. 

"Elunara, please return to your place." Renwa frowned. 

A flash of silver is all anyone saw. Terrance called out in pain, and on his arm, a thin rivulet of blood dripped down. The cut was not deep, but it burned. 

"No." Another flash of silver, another cut. "No, I do not think we'll do this the "civilized" way." As she spoke, she began to circle the chained man, lashing out and cutting sensitive skin. "This man is so completely full of himself, that I think I should drain him dry." She cut his face, his arms, and his legs. "You see, while everyone else was snug in their beds, this man and I had a little talk." One of her cuts came dangerously close to his eye. "It seems that this man thinks that I have corrupted his sister, ruined his life, and destroyed his family. When in fact," A cut sang across his cheek. "I helped his sister overcome a fear. Then I," She cut a deep track across his chest. "punished him for starting a physical altercation." She grabbed him by the hair and pressed the dagger just under his ear. "I hate people who think they can control the lives of others."

"Elunara..." Renwa cautioned. 

She straightened up and slid her knife across his earlobe. "I had a little conversation with your sister, and apparently, you're the reason she had those fears. You've been terrorizing her for YEARS." She cut another deep track across his chest. "Haven't you, Terrance?" She tsk'd. "Making her afraid of boys, when it was you she had to be afraid of." She cut his lip. 

"Aren't you going to stop this?" A desperate Terrance called from his chair.

Renwa raised an eyebrow. "Well, now she has me curious." 

Elunara rubbed the small blade for a moment before slicing into flesh. "Mark was sweet on little Jenny, but you kept blocking. Then when he got a moment alone, you went ballistic. Words were said, and you two finally came to blows. Knowing what I knew at the time, I told Mark about Jenny's little crush, hoping this would all resolve itself." Terrance was covered in small slices, bleeding down into his own waste. "Instead," She sliced his legs. "I find out that Jenny got herself a black eye for the incident."

Gasps were heard. Jenny stepped forward, her hair covering her face. She looked up and pushed the hair back. Mark rushed to her side. 

"Now," Elunara gave him a deep gash on his shoulder. "Jenny has been hiding, because she was ashamed of him. He's busted her up several times over the past week, and those marks on her face as just the most recent." She dug the blade into Terrance's cheek. "Then, after my heart to heart with our boy here..." She sliced his thigh open. "I learn that he knew he could never get to me. That, in order to get to me," She continued cutting pieces out of him. "That he would have to go through the things I value most." She sighed and began to tick off her fingers. "Grogek, Tulani, Darguni, Renwa, and even Zelinnia. The list is long, and varied, but the end result was the same. He would have to get to each of these things to destroy me." She went for his face and then his hands. 

"Grogek was too difficult, Renwa was too strong, Darguni would be a nice choice, but he was well protected." She stopped and stared at the bloody mess. "But Tulani? Or Zelinnia? Easy pickin's. All he'd have to do was wait for one of them to be alone. Zelinnia was a bit of a problem, because she was still too cautious to be caught alone, and her favorite hang out was the training yard." Elunara shook her head. She yanked his head back. "He told me last night, that he would get all the rest soon enough, but Tulani was THE prize to go for. She was, in his opinion, the second most important thing to me. It was just to his benefit that Tulani was such weak prey." 

Terrance huffed and puffed, his vision was blurring. 

"So his plan?" Elunara's voice hardened. "His plan was suited to the target..." She glared down at the man. "How did you put it? Oh, yeah. "Fuck the whore's lover, and then dump the body in the street where she belonged."

Elunara jammed the blade into the man's nut sack. The scream had everyone jumping back, and even Grogek winced. 

"You're so weak and pathetic, that you can't even do THAT right." Elunara growled. She yanked the dagger out. "Man that must suck." She wiped the dagger off on his leg. She pointed at Tulani. "You thought her weak? You thought her easy? Yeah, well she kicked your ass with a BASKET!" She stabbed him on the other side of his nuts. 

He had nothing left to give and blacked out. 

"Elunara." Tulani whispered. She walked forward ad wrapped her arms around Elunara. "You can stop now." 

Elunara turned and laid her lips on Tulani's. "I was already done. I made my point."

"Elunara, please come up here." Renwa frowned. 

The crowd began to murmur and Elunara dismissed her dagger. Tulani clung to her arm. 

"One of these days," He sighed. "I'm going to stop you from making a public spectacle of yourself. How did you get him to tell you all of that?"

"Some of it came from his sister, some of it came from Tulani's account, but most of it came about, because he just has a good deal of mean in him. I came to him last night, all tears and hurt because, how could he DO such a thing." Elunara shook herself. "His idea for Darguni was to cut him up and give me the pieces." 

Tulani gasped and dug her fingers into Elunara's arm. Grogek growled towards the bloody form.

"It gets worse, but in the end, after I got all I needed, it came down to the truth..." She shrugged. "He is a coward. I doubt he really thought he could get away with any of it. Following some of what his sister told me, he thought he had the upper hand. He THINKS he is better than he is." 

"Hm. Yes, he's been a weak soldier at best." Grogek nodded. "I've tried pushing him harder, but he is stubborn, and thinks his old ways are still best. Regardless of the environment."

Tulani smiled. "Thank you." She kissed Elunara. "For the basket remark."

Elunara shrugged. "It's as accurate as the statement gets."

"But what do we do with a man like that?" Captain Jordan frowned.

"Please don't execute him on my account." Tulani frowned. 

Elunara shook her head. "Execution is too kind. I want his suffering to linger." She snorted. 

"I had no intention of executing him" Renwa shook his head. "After Elunara's display, we need a punishment that sticks; something awful."

Elunara snorted. "He was supposed to be on latrine duty anyhow..."

Grogek grinned. "That's my vicious little she-wolf." He put his hand over the bangle on her arm. 

She smiled up at him. "As mad as Ina is, I don't think any of the healers will be fixing him soon. Which reminds me." She scanned the crowd. "Ah, there it is." 

"What's in the bucket?" Renwa narrowed his eyes. 

Elunara grinned at him before walking on. "Salt water."

"She isn't..." Captain Jordan asked in horror.

Renwa's tone was grim. "She is." 

Elunara took the bucket from the soldier and held it up. Dumping the massive bucket of water on the man, she yelled "Wake up, sunshine!"

Terrance screamed in pain, and continued screaming and struggling against his bonds as the water dripped down his body. 

"You were a mess, so I had to give you a bath." She tossed the bucket to the side. "Can't have you sleeping through your sentence can I?"

"YOU BITCH!" He screamed.

"Don't make me get another bucket." She tisked, as she walked back to stand with the rest of the crowd.

He hissed at her. 

"Terrance." Renwa began. "Your crimes are numerous and sickening. However, Tulani has graciously asked for leniency on your behalf, we will not go to execution." There were a number of angry noises in the crowd, but at Renwa's stare, they silenced. "In light of this, we have decided that, since your intent was so disgusting, that you should remain where you belong. Congratulations, you are now on permanent latrine duty." More noises and Renwa glared. "That does not mean that other punishments will not include such." He warned. "Also, I think you can sit there for a little while longer, while we find other accommodations for you." Renwa nodded "That being said, I think commendations should be given to our newest resident, Zelinnia; for her actions in saving our sweet Tulani." 

Everyone turned and looked at the Blood Elf. Elunara shoved her forward. "Go up there, goofball."

"I..." Zelinnia looked around in confusion. 

"Go." Someone hissed, and pushed her again. 

She stumbled forward and looked around as she walked towards Renwa. Tulani smiled and held out her hand. Zelinnia reached out, and was pulled over to Tulani's side. 

"I HATE YOU!" The man in the center screamed. 

No one looked at him. 

"I am aware that some people had reservations in allowing a former member of the Horde, to live in our town. Of course, they had reservations about one of the Iron Horde joining our town, and look how well THAT one turned out."

People laughed. 

"I am very glad that Elunara brought us a new ally." He turned to her and took her hand. "Thank you. You have proven yourself to all of us, in your actions toward one of our own."

Zelinnia dumbly stared at his hand. Finally, she looked up. "I couldn't let him hurt my friend." Was all she could think of to say.

Tulani hugged her tightly. "I don't know what would have happened without you." She whispered. 

The crowd cheered. 

Terrance sat in the center of the training area until a small shack was constructed on the outskirts of town, where he was locked in every night. During the day, a guard would escort him around to his duties. Predictably, no healer wanted to deal with a man who'd tried to harm their own. It was Tulani herself who felt bad for the man and tried to help him out with her limited abilities. She only eased the suffering. The scars along his body remained. He was only allowed pants. For a time, the men would take turns on his guard duty, so they could heap insults and kicks when no one else looked. Not that anyone cared. Soon it because a boring job that no one wanted and the man was mostly ignored.



For the Whored Ch. 045



Elunara was considering a page when Zelinnia ran in and slammed the door behind her. 

"El! El!" Cried Darguni, who reached up.

Elunara eyed the panting woman who had turned several fascinating shades of red. "What's wrong with you?"

"I..." Zelinnia bit her lip. "I was helping Ina warm the tubs... and I went in to change towels, and Renwa was sliding in the tub." She covered her face with her hand. "And... and he caught me staring. So... I ran."

Elunara sighed and tossed down her paper. "And you didn't slide in with him? Zelinnia, I'm ashamed FOR you." 

"This is NOT funny!" Zelinnia fumed. 

Elunara shook her head. "Of course it's not. You two have been pacing around each other like dogs in heat. Either do and be done, or actually date the man. That's all the advice you'll get out of me."

Zelinnia picked up the persistent toddler and sighed. "I saw his dick, and I kept staring at it... and wondering." Shaking her head, she bounced the child on her hip. "I kept wondering if it would be as good as..." She stared at the wall pictures.

"As?" Prompted Elunara.

Zelinnia mumbled.

"Didn't catch you." Elunara sighed.

"Your fingers, ok? The only experience I've had has been... that day." 

Elunara rolled her eyes. "Let me guess, Renwa is the big experienced male, and Zelinnia is the poor inexperienced female. Am I on the right track?" She raised an eyebrow. 

Zelinnia sat on her bed and put Darguni in her lap. "Now you're just making fun of me."

"Actually, I'm not. It's pretty common. But, let me allay your fears. Renwa is a sweet and considerate lover. He's good enough to be interesting, but not enough to be daunting." She shrugged. "We shared a bed for nearly a year, before I walked away in search of something new. Even while we were together, I never stopped my missions. In fact, I used missions as fuel to blow poor little Renwa's mind." She laughed. 

"Great." Zelinnia muttered.

"Oh, don't be like that." Elunara shook her head. "He couldn't keep up with me. Hell, the only person who truly can is Grogek. We were suited for sex, but he wanted love making, and I wanted a hard bang. It just didn't work. He gave me everything he had, and it just wasn't my style. It worked, because he knew what I was, but it ended because he didn't know WHO I was." Elunara walked over and put a hand on Zelinnia's shoulder. "Take it from me, Sweetie. You're a perfect match." 

"Well, if you say so. I guess you'd know by this point."

Elunara sat down and hugged Zelinnia. "And he doesn't know what we did, so to him, you're still the inexperienced virgin. In fact, you rather are. He'll be gentle as a lamb." She plucked Darguni from Zelinnia's lap and put him with his toys.

"What if I don't want him to be?" She flushed. 

Shaking her head, Elunara laughed. "Sweetheart, start slow, build up. You have to have a first date before you can start ripping off his clothes, or he'll think I had something to do with it." She wagged her finger. "Not a good way to start off, I assure you." 

"Fine."

Elunara grabbed her arms and pulled her to standing. "Now, get your tiny little but out there, and apologize for fleeing, before Renwa thinks his dick offended you." She pushed the smaller woman towards the door.

"Fine, fine, I'm going. Ina's going to kill me anyway." 

"Dropped her fresh towels?"

"And entered a tub room without knocking."

"What color flowers would you like on your grave?"

"Hah. Hah." She yanked open the door and stared at Renwa. "Uhh..." She slammed the door.

Elunara smacked her forehead. "Zelinnia!"

"I don't know what to DO when I'm around that man!" Zelinnia cried.

"Well, I have several suggestions." Elunara snorted.

"I can hear you." Renwa called through the door.

Zelinnia closed her eyes. "I've always been partial to purple flowers, myself." She groaned. 

"Duly noted." Said Renwa. "May I come in and stop talking trough the door?"

Elunara elbowed Zelinnia out of the way. "You know you are always welcome in my home. Even when Zelinnia is being a doofus."

Renwa nodded as he stepped in. "I'm sorry for the intrusion, but it seemed important I... come over." 

Elunara snirked. "Zelinnia has already told me what happened." She bent down and scooped up Darguni. "I think it's time for someone's nap." Then she disappeared into the back room. 

Renwa blushed. "Listen, I'm sorry I-"

"No, no. Don't apologize." Zelinnia bit her lip. "It was my fault for not knocking like I'm supposed to."

He stepped forward. "I didn't want to offend you." 

Her face grew hot. "N-no. Not at all. I just... I didn't mean to stare!" She choked out. "I-I'd never seen... and I ... I was curious... and I... OH, god I wish I was Elunara." 

He blinked at her. "In... uh, what way?"

Behind the closed door, Elunara was silently pounding her head on the door. 

Zelinnia was red as a beat as she stared at Renwa. "Well," She said slowly. "For one thing, I would know what to say, and stop blurting things out like an idiot."

"That's a reasonable desire." He nodded. He winced. "I didn't mean it that way. You're not an idiot."

"She always knows what she's doing and how to get what she wants." Zelinnia muttered. 

"And what do you want?" He asked quietly. 

"I..." the color rose in her face again. "I... I don't know..."

Elunara popped open the door. "Oh, dear Elune, just bone each other and be done with it. You're both killing me."

Zelinnia glared. "Right now, I want to smack her." She snorted.

Renwa sighed and rubbed his neck. "You and me both." 

They grinned at each other. 

"There, now you have something in common. If you're going to borrow the building, I'll put the sign out and you can come get me when Darguni wakes." 

They both went red as they continued to stare at each other. 

"Gods, I love that color on you two, you're adorable. Go have lunch or something. Get out of my house." She shoved them both out the door and closed it behind them. 

"I'm starting to wonder if she does "always" know what she's doing." Zelinnia blinked.

"Yes, yes she does." Renwa laughed. "She likes to call herself a whore, but she's been studying humanoid behavior for years. She literally can get anything she wants. Come, I hear Tippy has outdone herself with these new Draenor ingredients."

Grogek kissed the top of Elunara's head. "You did good."

"Huh?" Elunara looked up from her papers. "What?"

"Zelinnia and Renwa were seen hand in hand. Knowing how awkward those two are, you had to be involved."

She laughed. "They deserve each other." 

"They do." He grinned. "You should know; I flipped your sign."

"Oh, really?" She tossed the papers on the desk. 

"I hope you had no other appointments today." 

"Sugarbear, my calendar is always clear for you." 

Tulani frowned at the door. The sign was up for business, but she wasn't aware of any appointments today. She had seen Zelinnia a few minutes ago, and she didn't say anything about being kicked out for the day. Tulani tapped on the door using the code Elunara gave her. 

"Come in!" Was muffled. 

Tulani peeked in the door to see Elunara and Grogek naked and sweaty. Grogek leaned back against the wall, and Elunara was sitting on the end of the bed. With a sigh of relief, she closed the door behind her. "I was worried you had someone I didn't know about."

"Oh sorry, Grogek was feeling frisky." 

"I can see that." Tulani put her new basket on her desk. "Don't stop on my account."

"We were between tasks." 

Tulani walked over to the bed and ran a finger down Elunara's arm. "Well, you've certainly been busy." 

Elunara captured her wrist and kissed her palm. "Are you asking to join us?"

"I wouldn't object to it."

"Then you are wearing entirely too much." Elunara slipped her hands across Tulani's shoulders and under the edge of the dress. Pushing the dress back, Elunara trailed her mouth and edges of her teeth along the woman's sensitive neck. 

Grogek watched with great interest, his hand slipping around his dick. 

Elunara moved down, taking the dress with her. She used her mouth on Tulani's breasts. Tulani leaned her head back, her fingers gripping Elunara's hair. Elunara gripped her hips, pressing the dress off into the floor. Wrapping an arm around Tulani's waist, Elunara tugged the Draenei into the bed. She tugged her into her lap. 

Slipping her fingers in, Elunara whispered. "What can we do with you now?" She leaned back, her knees spreading Tulani's legs apart, as the woman lay on top of her. From his vantage point, Grogek could see the both of them, spread out in front of him. He bent forward and starting at the bottom, licked them both. Both women gasped in shock. 

He laughed. "Sorry, when such a tasty display is in front of me, I just have to have a lick." 

Elunara shifted her legs, and pressed Tulani's hips down against her own. "I think that's a fabulous idea." 

Tulani buried her face against Elunara's neck, as she wiggled her legs around. "I liked it." She panted. 

"That's a go." Elunara grinned as she squeezed Tulani's hips. 

Grogek got more comfortable and buried his face in the crotches of the two women.

Zelinnia giggled and blushed. She rubbed her hand in her hair. "Oh, maybe. But, let me just tell Elunara I'll be out late."

Renwa noticed the sign on the door. "Uh, you might..."

Zelinnia opened the door and froze. Elunara and Tulani appeared to be in some sort of naked embrace, while Grogek had his face... She slammed the door closed and stared at Renwa with complete embarrassment. 

"I will knock on all doors." She said. She hurried away from the building. "I will knock on all doors. I will knock on all doors." She chanted, as she all but ran away. 

Renwa sighed. That would be a mental image he'd keep for awhile. Damned if he wasn't jealous. In the meantime, he had a Blood Elf to chase down.

"Did you hear something?" Tulani looked up.

Elunara shook her head and scrapped her teeth on Tulani's shoulder. 

Grogek laughed. "It's rather hard to hear with legs on either side of my head." 

"I know something else that's hard." Elunara purred. 

"Rock solid." Grogek slurped them again. 

"Maybe we can have some fun with that." Elunara ran her tongue on Tulani's collarbone. "You know, my sweetness, I've sometimes regretted that I haven't a dick to fuck you with."

"But you do so well without it." Tulani purred, her fingers stroking Elunara's breasts. 

"Maybe we can borrow his for a little bit." She whispered. Her fingers working in and out of Tulani, as Grogek worked his fingers in her. "But, I wouldn't want you to do something you objected to." 

"Would it bring you pleasure?" Tulani's cheeks were flushed. 

Elunara bit Tulani's lip. "I would like to see it. But, not at the expense of you."

Tulani dipped her tongue in Elunara's mouth. Elunara's free hand came up and crushed Tulani's hair as she pressed her mouth in. Both women gasped and squirmed at Grogek's attentions. 

"I am not so sure." Tulani began. "But I will try, for you." 

"I would never hurt you." Elunara's thumb circled the sensitive point between Tulani's head and horns. 

"What are you plotting up there?" Grogek looked over Tulani's ass. 

"Did you know the base of her tail is very sensitive?" Elunara grinned.

"Is it now?" Grogek considered. He moved a hand up and brushed his thumb against Tulani's ass. She wiggled. He ran his thumb and forefinger along the base of Tulani's tail. She began to trash, her tail reflexed. "Oh, now this IS interesting." Grogek remarked. 

Elunara grinned, Tulani came on her fingers. "Now that's my girl." Elunara purred as she worked on the horns and Grogek the tail. 

"Oh, stop." She whimpered. "That's just too much!" She tried to clamp her legs, but there was too much in the way of it. 

Elunara laughed and Grogek released her tail, frowning. "Did I hurt you?" 

Elunara laughed and kissed Tulani's nose. "Oh, I can quite assure you that she enjoyed it. It's just something a little more intense than she can handle."

Tulani pouted. "That was a dirty trick." 

"Actually, I wasn't entirely sure that would work. I'll have to add it to my notes." She gently kissed Tulani's mouth. "I'm sorry, I won't do it again."

"Well... I didn't say that." She blushed.

Elunara grinned. "Too mad at me to try the other thing?"

"Oh." She ran her hands on Elunara's breasts, fascinated by the feeling. "No. I'm still willing... I mean, I don't really want to stop yet."

Elunara tugged a horn and pulled Tulani into a deep kiss. "That's my girl." She looked up at Grogek's still concerned face. "Sugar bear, I'm going to need you to sit up."

"Alright." He climbed out of the bed so he could readjust and then sat back against the wall again. 

Elunara pushed Tulani up to sitting and looked over. "Aw, you lost your hard on."

"Sorry my love, I thought I hurt Tulani."

Elunara pushed Tulani into Grogek's lap. He blinked at the woman as Elunara tugged on his dick. She began sucking on him. He grunted and grabbed her head. When she was satisfied, she sat back and inspected her work. Tulani's soft wet lips brushing on Grogek's hard dick made something in her flood. Even if she could never get Tulani to try this again, that image would keep her happy for months. 

"Alright Sugarbear, I'm going to need your help." 

"What do you want me to do?"

"Brace Tulani."

"How?" 

"I'm going to get her to slide on your dick. I need you to brace her so we can go slowly."

"Wait, you want to what?" He blinked. 

She stared at him for a moment. "I... I'm sorry. Did I do something wrong?"

"My love, I've never..." He looked down at Tulani. "Another woman?"

"But you've had no problem with..." She shook her head. "I'm confused."

"Sweetheart, you are who you are. But, I've never been with another woman. Once it was you, it's always been you."

"Did I ask too far?" She frowned. "I guess I didn't ask." She reached out and put a hand on his arm. "I'm sorry that I assumed that it was just like the other stuff." 

He shifted uncomfortably. "A finger there, a lick here, it was just fun. But I've never put my dick in any other woman but you. I don't even look at them." 

She put a hand on Tulani's shoulder. "I mean, this is our Tulani. I just wanted to borrow your dick for a few... You know what, scratch that. I'm going to be honest. I wanted to see her slip on your hard dick. I can't even explain why this turns me on so much, but I want it. I want to see you buried hilt deep in her so I can lick you both off. I can practically taste it. I was so worried about insulting Tulani with my request, that I didn't even think of you, and I'm sorry. Please forgive me." She frowned. 

Grogek tugged her forward and captured her mouth with his. She knew that in his mouth, hers and Tulani's juices mingled together and it drove her even crazier. Tulani, trapped in the middle, slipped her hand down to Elunara's crotch. 

"Oh my, she's serious. She's soaking." Tulani said with awe. "You should feel this."

Grogek slid his fingers in alongside Tulani's. "Amazing." He stared at his dripping hand and licked his fingers. "Very well." 

"I don't want to insult you." Elunara frowned.

Grogek shook his head. "I am uncomfortable with it, that much is true. However, I have always said that I would do anything to please you. This so obviously pleases you, so it will please me to do it."

Elunara wiggled her butt and clasped her hands together. "Really?"

He laughed. 

"Well, it will be interesting to attempt, at least." Tulani looked down at herself, still perched in Grogek's lap. He had gone near soft, but hardened when he'd felt Elunara.

"Last chance to tell me no." She pointed at both of them. 

They looked at each other and Grogek shrugged. "Yes."

Tulani giggled. "Yes." 

"Remember Tulani, you HAVE to tell me if something hurts. I won't harm you." 

"Alright." 

"Since that whole fiasco made everyone a little... less than happy, we'll do this the right way." Elunara sighed. "I'm sorry I ask so much of the both of you." She pressed her lips to Tulani's, softly, gently building up. She moved her hands down her body, fingers caressing and teasing the breasts and nipples. She moved one hand down and began to work her fingers in and out of Tulani, the palm of her hand rubbing against Grogek's dick. She moved her face back to Grogek and devoured his mouth. 

The pair of them ran their hands along Elunara's body, caressing, gripping, and feeling her out. She worked her hand on both of them as she braced against the wall. "I love both of you." She murmured. "My heart." She kissed Tulani. "My Soul." She kissed Grogek. "For just a moment, I want to enjoy you both at once. In a way we've never tried before." She whispered; her voice husky.

"Here, let's brace you up." Elunara fiddled with Grogek's arms until she was happy, and then moved Tulani into them. She guided Tulani's hips over and sat her on his dick. Bending down, Elunara began to lick them both at the connection point. Tulani leaned backwards and Grogek groaned. 

One hand on Tulani's hips, she used her other to spread the lips as she guided Tulani down. Tulani gasped and Elunara looked up. Tulani's eyes were wide, but not painful. With a grin, Elunara added pressure. "Grogek is on the big side, but I wouldn't have anyone else touch my girl. You can take him, I know you can." 

"This is an exercise in endurance and self control." Grogek groaned. "I have to figure out how to capitalize on it." 

She laughed. "I have been all my life." 

Elunara bent back down and licked his shaft, moving towards the head where she began to rub and lick at Tulani. More pressure on Tulani's hip and Grogek's dick slipped inside. Tulani gasped and clenched her hands on Grogek's. "Here we go, my lovely." Elunara whispered. Using both hands, she gripped Tulani's hips and pulled her forward. With a little shove, she began to push Tulani down the length of him. 

Grogek shifted for the change in weight and almost let go. He shifted his hands. "Let me handle the hips." He growled. Wrapping his hands around Tulani's hips he guided her slowly down. 

Tulani gasped and writhed. Her motions made it difficult for Grogek to hold on. Elunara grabbed Tulani's legs and spread them wide and pulled her knees up. 

"There we go, nice and tight." Elunara purred. 

Grogek let go of Tulani's hips and laid his hands on her legs. "You can say that again." He groaned. 

Tulani leaned back against his chest. "This... feels so strange." She shook her head. "Nothing at all like... well, that."

Elunara licked her lips. "I hate to ask another favor..."

"What?" They both asked at once. They looked at each other and laughed. 

"Can I get my sketchbook?" Elunara whimpered.

Grogek rolled his eyes. "Alright."

Tulani giggled. "Go ahead; it might kill you if you don't." 

Elunara leapt off the bed and went for her board.

Tulani wiggled back and forth. 

"Oh lord, stop." Grogek grunted. "You're too tight for me. I prefer my wife." He winced.

"I'm too tight for you? How fascinating." Tulani found it difficult to stop wiggling. 

Elunara sat in the bed and began drawing the pair of them. While one hand worked, she slipped her fingers in herself. "This one will have me busy for weeks." She murmured. She worked as quick as she could manage, getting the angles and shapes right and worrying about major detailing later. 

"Please tell me this won't be a regular thing..." Grogek whimpered. 

"Oh no, no, no. I'm getting this down so I never have to ask this again. It's just been this fantasy that's been in my head." She sat the board down on the floor. "And I so desperately wanted to do it."

"Well, good." Tulani wiggled again. "Because as fascinating as this is... it's not exactly for me."




For the Whored Ch. 045



"I'll make it up to both of you, I promise." Elunara lay down on the bed, her elbows propping her up as she began to lick around Grogek's dick and Tulani's softness. She teased them both to insanity, before putting her hand on Tulani's thighs and pushing her upward. Grogek cursed as he lost control of himself and filled Tulani. In shock, Tulani gasped and dug her nails into Grogek's hand. In one swift movement, Elunara rolled on her side and tugged Tulani off of Grogek's dick. 

The Draenei on the bed, Elunara turned her over and ran a hand down Tulani's messy crotch. "You have something of mine." Elunara buried her face in Tulani's crotch and began to suck and lick her out.

"You should take something of mine." Grogek said, as he slipped his dick into Elunara's waiting wetness. 

Tulani began to writhe and Elunara drove her up over that brink, moments before Grogek poured what little he had left into Elunara. He wrapped his arms around her waist and buried his face into her back. "Only my wife's pussy is good enough for me." He growled. 

"I'm sorry." She murmured. "I messed up."

"I didn't want to come in her." He growled in annoyance. 

The vibration of his annoyance was tickling her back, but she was made of sterner stuff and hid it well. "You didn't really have a choice. When I saw the pressure points that were being created, I kind of knew it would happen once she released. I had hoped to dislodge her quick enough that you'd hit air. I couldn't remove her too fast, or I'd hurt her in the process. It really wasn't intentional."

He released her and sat up. "I'm still displeased with you."

Elunara rolled over on her back, her head against Tulani's hip. "It hurts my heart to hear you say that, but I guess I deserve it."

Tulani sat up with a sigh. "I am disappointed as well. I think I understand what you were trying to do, but it was unnecessary. You know I'm not interested in men. Having one of the manliest men you could find was a poor way to do it." She shook her head. "If this was just about fulfilling a fantasy, then you should have talked to us both at a different time and planed it better. This was on the spot and a little rude." She crossed her arms.

Elunara's mouth dropped open as she sat up. "I didn't mean to." She squeaked. Hearing her own voice Elunara cleared her throat. Closing her eyes, she sighed before looking back and forth between them. "You're right. I took advantage of you both and I'm sorry." She bit her lip. "I guess I've come to rely on the both of you giving in to my every crazy whim a little too much."

Grogek kissed her temple. "We both love you, but you can make us both feel a little put out at times." 

"I wish you'd tell me these things." She grumbled. "I never like hurting people, least of all either of you." 

Tulani leaned forward. "Perhaps we should punish her." 

Grogek grinned. "But, would that be an actual punishment for her?" 

"Oh, it might." 

Elunara looked back and forth between the two. "Uh, what?" 

"I should like a little payback."

"Good point." Grogek grabbed Elunara by the arms and pulled her over into his lap. A small adjustment and he buried himself in her ass. "Ah, yes. Much better." 

"Eep!" Elunara wiggled under his grasp, but he pinned her arms down. "Hey!"

Tulani laughed. "Yes, quite the reversal." She scooted forward. "Now, if there's one thing you've managed to teach me..." She ran her fingers along the soft wet folds. "Is that the longer you go without relief, the more frustrating it gets."

"Quite right." Grogek grinned. 

"Hey, wait a minute." 

"Let's see how well you've taught me." She slowly slipped a finger in. 

"Something tells me you two planned this." Elunara narrowed her eyes. 

"A little." Tulani shrugged, as got comfortable on the bed and played with Elunara's soft center. "But we hadn't come to a decision on when or where." 

Grogek licked Elunara's neck. "You can be a little intimidating and demanding." He scraped his teeth over that sensitive spot he liked. "I just offered to help Tulani be on even footing." 

"Why?" She panted. "Why didn't you tell me?"

"Well, first of all," She slipped a couple of fingers in. "The intimidating part." Using both of her thumbs, she spread Elunara open. "Second of all, having you pretend would be no fun." Tulani traced the inside of the lips with her tongue. 

"I rather like having you trapped here." Grogek shifted an arm so that Elunara was still trapped, but he could play with her breasts. "My vicious little she wolf, caught in my arms." 

"Unlike you, I do not find men's body parts all that attractive, but how else am I to get to your goodness?" She buried her face in Elunara's crotch.

Having nothing else she could do, she dug her nails in her thighs. Gasping and squirming, she clinched her legs. Grogek shifted a leg and pined one of hers down. She tried to move again and he shifted his other leg, effectively immobilizing her. She flopped her head back and began to softly shudder. 

Tulani pulled her head back and laughed. "No, not yet." She sat up on her knees and began to play with Elunara's breasts. She sucked on one while Grogek teased the other. Moving her hand down, Tulani slicked her fingers through the wetness. 

Grogek groaned at the dripping on his balls, and buried his face in Elunara's neck, using his tongue and teeth to make her crazy. She arched back against him. Tulani's fingers were tracing circles, barely dipping in, before coming back out and doing it all over again. Tulani licked and teased and pinched at Elunara's nipple

"I think I hate you both right now." Elunara whimpered. 

Tulani chuckled "But, I'm not done with you." She scooted back and lay down on the bed again. Using her tongue and fingers, she made patterns on the inside of Elunara's thighs. 

Grogek shifted again and slid his finger into her. Using one finger in her and the rest out, he played with her folds and even dipped down and rubbed his own balls. He pulled them up and rubbed them against her wetness. He slipped a second finger in and moved painfully slow, in and out, around and about. Her wetness spilled out on his balls and he groaned and bucked his hips up, pressing deeper into her ass. 

Elunara gasped. "Please." She whimpered.

"Mm, I don't know, I rather like sitting like this." Grogek purred into her neck. 

He pushed a third finger and pumped his hand in and out. Tulani switched legs, going for the more sensitive areas. She looked at Grogek's hand. 

"Wow, you can get three in there?"

"Comfortably. I wonder how many you can get in. Your hands are so much smaller than mine."

She wiggled her fingers. "Now I want to try."

Grogek slid his wet hand up Elunara's belly. "Give it a go."

Tulani slid one finger in and out before adding a second. In and out she repeated the process, putting a third, then a forth. "How fascinating."

Elunara groaned. "Why don't you finish me off?" 

"Alright!" Tulani called cheerfully before making a fist and sliding it into Elunara. "Oh, wow."

"You do realize," Elunara groaned. "That your tiny fist is about the size of Grogek's dick, right?"

Tulani and Grogek shared a look. With a grin, Grogek began to shift Elunara up and down on his dick. Elunara gasped and clung to herself. Up and down, Grogek pumped into Elunara's ass, which Tulani moved her fist in and out of Elunara's center. Elunara clamped down on both of them with the force of her orgasm. With a groan, Grogek poured himself into her. He let go and shifted himself free of her, his hands resting on her thighs.

"Um, can I have my hand back now?" Asked Tulani.

"Going to have to pull, sweetness." Elunara gasped as Tulani pulled free. She fell forward on her face. 

Grogek smacked her ass.

"Hey!" She winced. "What was that for?"

He laughed. "In case you forgot it was supposed to be a punishment. 

"I so need to wash my hand." Tulani held it out as she climbed off the bed. 

"Well, I can add that to my list of things I haven't done." Elunara mumbled.

"What?"

"Being fisted." She sighed. "I lied, it's a little bigger, plus, there are bones and things. That wasn't as fun as I hoped." 

"I'm sorry." Tulani frowned. 

"Nah, its fine. I kind of wanted to try it." She tried to push herself up from the bed. "Ugh, I need a bath." She snorted. "That reminds me, I wonder what time it is, she should be back by now." She rocked her head back and forth. "Unless she took my advice and is spending the night with Renwa." Elunara chuckled. 

"Sign's on the door, she might have seen it and left." Tulani shrugged. 

"Let's head down to Ina's baths. But, no antics... my everything kind of hurts."

"Mine too." Winced Tulani, as she rubbed her crotch. "What about Darguni?"

"I have the orb." She held up the listening device. "He'll be fine for a few."



For the Whored Ch. 046



Zelinnia stood on the hill overlooking the south orchard. "It's a beautiful place." She murmured. "The whole town is a pretty little place." 

"We're quite proud of it." Renwa smiled. 

They began to walk back. Zelinnia watched the trio walk towards the bath. "Oh good, maybe I can go back tonight without humiliating myself again." She grumbled.

"You could always stay with me." Renwa murmured. 

Zelinnia looked up, her eyes wide. "I'm... I mean, I..." She tried to catch her breath. "I'm not that kind of girl." She blurted. "I mean, I know I live with Elunara, but... it's not like that." 

He held out his hand. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to offend you." 

Timidly, she put her hand in his. "It's just... I know Elunara's reputation is legendary, but I'm not that kind of person. We haven't... I mean we didn't... it's just, ah..."

He laughed. "I know that Elunara can be an overwhelming person to deal with."

"Ugh, the things I've seen, pretending to be asleep." She muttered. 

He laughed. "She knows."

Zelinnia froze. "Knows what?"

"That you're awake." He shrugged. "Grogek would know because of his training. I think the only one who wouldn't know that you are awake would be Tulani. She's too innocent, even if her past is horrible." 

"Not THAT innocent." Zelinnia muttered.

"What?" 

"Nothing." She shook her head. 

"Elunara has been good to her. Really brought her out of her shell, so to speak. Tulani used to be afraid of everyone except Elunara. She's still a little shy, but there's a humor there I haven't seen before." Renwa kissed Zelinnia's cheek. "We all thank you for saving her." 

Zelinnia blushed. "I... well, I... uh." 

He laughed. "And after what you said to Elunara that day, you can't get by with calling it nothing." 

"I really should get back home." She mumbled.

"I'm sorry, did I offend you again?"

She held up her hands. "No! I mean, you never offended me in the first place." She could feel the heat in her face. "I like you, I do... I just... I mean, if the guys in Silvermoon looked half as good as you, I might not have left." She laughed. She smacked her own face. "Gods, I hate my mouth."

"I'm quite fond of it myself." He grinned.

Her blush deepened as she stepped back. "I should go." She whispered.

He captured her wrist. "Wait." Tugging her closer he peered into her eyes. "Just a moment longer." He swallowed the lump in his throat. "Please?" He whispered. 

The heat in her face was almost unbearable and her breathing quickened. "Maybe a moment." Was that her voice?

His hand came up under her cheek and he leaned forward. She stepped forward, hands on his chest as he pressed his lips, whisper soft on to her own. It was as if she'd lost control of her own limbs, and her hands came up behind his neck. Renwa's hands slid down her backside, as he gently pressed his tongue into her mouth. She gasped in shock and he took his advantage, their bodies wrapped around each other as he softly, patiently explored her mouth. 

When thoughts of Elunara's comments intruded on her mind, she swore and stepped back. 

"I'm sorry." He whispered in confusion.

"If you apologize to me one more time, I will fire blast you in the face." She muttered. "I have to go." She took off running. 

Elunara blinked when she heard a door slam. She picked up the orb and stuck it to her ear.

"Darguni?" Tulani asked. She was cuddled up under Elunara's arm. 

"No, I think Zelinnia's returned." Elunara sighed. "But if she doesn't stop that cussing, she'll wake him." 

"Do you need to deal with her?" Grogek opened one eye and peered down at Elunara, who was tucked under HIS arm. 

"Unfortunately." Elunara dislodged herself from between the two. "Take your time. I'm going to need a few to figure out what went wrong." She climbed out of the bath and scooped up her clean clothes. She decided it would be quicker to run and air dry, than to towel and dress. Not that she minded running naked in the dark, she had many times, for many reasons. She met a frowning Renwa on the way. 

"Oh, hello Lu." He mumbled. 

"What's wrong?" 

He sighed and ran his fingers through his hair. "I don't understand women."

She snorted. "The woman in question is a moron." She shook her head. "Look, I'll talk to her."

"Yeah... Can you?" He looked at Elunara and she thought he looked crushed. 

She laid a hand on his shoulder. "I will." Watching him wader away, she decided he was completely messed up if he didn't even notice she was naked. 

She shoved open the door and glared at her target. "What the hell, did you DO?" She growled.

Zelinnia looked up and almost wet herself. A furious Elunara was a terror to behold. "I..."

Elunara pointed out the door. "I just passed a devastated Renwa, and I'd like to know WHY." She closed the door, careful not to slam it in her anger. 

"I..." All thought had fled her mind. "I just..."

"SPEAK!"

"He kissed me, OK?!" Zelinnia yelled back.

"The baby is asleep, and if you wake him up I'll just be more pissed off." Elunara glared. "If you want to try and tell me that Renwa assaulted you, we're going to have a whole new set of discussions." 

Zelinnia blinked. "I didn't say that."

"Then WHAT is going on?" 

"He kissed me, and then I kissed back," She started rambling. "and then I wanted to go with him and then my mind went to... that and I got to thinking about what you said and I suddenly was horribly embarrassed by my reaction and just... I panicked and I ran." 

Elunara pounded her head lightly on the wall. "Elune, you are an idiot."

"This is all so weird to me!" She cried. "And don't you dare quote me YOUR situation. I know about Night Elf curiosities into other races. But Blood Elves are raised with a certain racial purity. We don't even LIKE that we had to ask the Horde for help. Gods, to MINGLE with the lesser races..."

"So you're racist." 

Zelinnia crossed her arms. "I'm supposed to be." She shrugged. "But I was already bored to tears by the point that we reached negotiations with the Horde. Not one Blood Elf man was worth my time or attention. They're all a bunch of preening poofs. The Horde intrigued me. Taurens are quite tasty to look at."

Elunara snorted. "Tasty is an understatement once you get your hands on one." 

Zelinnia rolled her eyes. "Of course you have. Anyway, once in the Horde, you're preached at about the awful Alliance. Once a Horde, always a Horde. I applied my disdain for "lesser races" to the Alliance, rather than my allies in the Horde." She ran her fingers through her hair. "Then Thrall gave leadership to Garrosh, and I'm quite sure you're aware of how well that worked."

"Racial purity taken to its extreme." 

"Exactly." She sighed. "So then, we go from working together, to isolations. Blood Elves were considered less than dogs. Delicate little flowers that needed to be stomped into shape. The whole upheaval of the Horde, from Thrall to Garrosh, to Garrosh's insanity, and then that sticky troll Vol'jin takes over."

"I kind of Like Vol'jin..." Elunara said wistfully. 

"I don't even WANT to know why." Zelinnia shuddered. "Then that idiot Thrall convinced the Horde to come out to Draenor. Freaking cold, and not fun." She snorted. "But, that I can deal with, I like seeing new places. But the fucking twit put Lorros in charge of training. Garrosh all over again!" She threw her hands up. "Then you save me. Now, I find myself in a very weird situation. I will never see Silvermoon again." Tears streamed down. "I'll never see my home again." 

Elunara wrapped her arms around Zelinnia. "You've been through a lot." 

"I don't even know what I want anymore, and trying to figure it out gives me a complete migraine." She pinched between her eyes. "I like Renwa, I really do. Gods, I wanted him to take me home tonight, and I messed up and now I don't know what to do." 

Elunara kissed the top of her head. "Well, you have two options, do it now, or do it tomorrow."

"What?" Zelinnia sniffled.

"You are going to go to him and apologize for being a total twit. Then you are going to STAND there." One arm around the Blood Elf, Elunara put a hand under Zelinnia's chin. "This is the most important part; you will STAND YOUR GROUND. Do you understand me? You will not take off running, you will not coward out." She tapped her nose. "You will stand your ground and you will follow your heart. It will take you where you need to go."

"Really?"

"Now, do you do it now, or sleep on it and do it tomorrow?"

"I..."

"I have my own suggestion, but you have to listen to your gut on this one."

"I want to do it now."

"Good girl." Elunara led Zelinnia to the door. "Now, his door is not the main office, but the small door to the left."

"Alright..." Zelinnia started running.

"I'm amazed you always know what to say." Tulani watched Zelinnia's diminishing form. 

"Elune, I am exhausted." Elunara sighed. "I could sleep for a month." 

Grogek scooped up both women. "Then let's get started on it." 

Zelinnia found herself running through the town, completely unaware of where she was supposed to go. She remembered belatedly where Renwa's office and was halfway to the door when she spotted the light in the window. She peeked in and spotted Renwa, sitting at a table, his head bowed. Guilt hit her like a punch in the stomach. Moving to the door, she knocked and waited. 

He debated not answering the door, but the knock came again, a little more insistent. That's all he needed, a midnight tragedy to deal with. With a sigh he got up and opened the door. He blinked several times. "Zelinnia..."

"Listen! Don't be mad at me, ok? I'm an idiot. I know I'm an idiot, but it's not like I've had this stuff figured out before, or had this stuff to deal with." She rambled. "Wait, I'm not making sense." She shook her head and clamped her hands together. "Please forgive me." When he continued to stare, she rushed on. "I didn't mean to hurt your feelings, I'm just trying to figure out my own feelings and they're a complete mess, mostly because I'm a complete mess. Please, you..." She flailed her hands. "I liked kissing you, I did. I kind want to do it again, but that's not why... well, that's exactly why I fled." She pulled at her hair. "Do you ever want something so badly that all you do is shoot yourself in the foot? Oh, I'm screwing this up again!"

Renwa reached out, and wrapping his arms around her, pressed his mouth to hers. She gasped in surprise and then grabbed his arms, her fingers digging into his shirt. He was slow, deliberate and careful. One of her hands went up around the back of his neck, her fingers crushing into the hair. She got bold and pressed up against him. 

Releasing her mouth he whispered. "Would you like to come in?"

"More than anything in the world." She breathed. 

He closed the door behind them. 

She looked around at the simply furnished room. Licking her lips she turned to him. The look in his eyes had her desperate to run again, but Elunara's words echoed in her head. She closed her eyes and breathed several times. 

"Are you alright?"

"Just making my decision." She whispered.

"You don't have to..." Wrapping his hand around her waist, he stepped forward. "I would never..."

She put a hand to his mouth. "I want to. I desperately want this. If you keep talking, I'll just run away again."

"I can't have that, can I?" He whispered, before pressing his lips to hers. He led her back to the bed, his hands making his way into her dress and pushing it down around her shoulders. His mouth followed the trail of his hands, making his way down to her chest. 

She slid her hands across his neck and up to his hair. Leaning her head back, she groaned. He tugged her dress down around her hips. He slid his hands up and grabbed her breasts. "Oh, Renwa." She whispered. 

"Call me Johnathan." He whispered back. 

She dug her fingers in his hair as he pushed her dress to the floor. Straightening up, he pulled off his shirt. She ran her hands across his chest. "Johnathan." She breathed. 

Gently, he pushed her back on to the bed, laid her down and climbed in on top. "Zelinnia." He whispered. Leaning down, he pressed his lips to hers. She wrapped her arms around his neck, her fingers spread into his hair. She responded to his mouth with her own, dancing their tongues in each other's mouths. 

She slid her hands down his back, tugged at the top of his pants. 

"You don't have to." He whispered again.

"I want to. Please." She begged.

He shoved his pants down, freed them from his legs and tossed them with the rest of the clothes. He ran his hands across her breasts, caressed her nipples with his thumbs. She moaned and writhed. One hand he moved down, and spreading his fingers, slipped them in her wetness. She groaned and arched against his hand. He adjusted and pushed himself against her. His hand he slipped around her waist and across her ass. He pressed her against him and slid in slowly. 

She dug her fingers into his back and arched against him. She gave a whimper when he entered completely. "Johnathan." She moaned. 

He captured her mouth again and slipped in and out. He'd known she was a virgin because he'd asked Elunara. How she knew, he didn't care, but he wanted to make it beautiful. 

Her legs came up around him, as he buried himself deeper. His hand slid down her leg, grasping her hip as he groaned. Zelinnia decided to ignore that annoying voice inside her head saying Elunara was right about him being gentle. "More." She whispered as she arched her back. "I want more." She breathed. 

"Your wish is my command." He murmured as he built up speed and intensity. Her hands roamed his body, exploring shapes and sensations. When she began to shudder against him, he let himself go.



For the Whored Ch. 047



Zelinnia decided she hated the morning, as she stared at the gaining light through the window. Renwa... no, Johnathan's arms were wrapped around her, among other body parts. His arm tightened around her and he tugged her against his chest. He kissed behind her ear. 

"You think entirely too loud."

She sighed. "Can we just stay here for the next week or so?"

He nibbled on her neck. "Unfortunately, my job is a little too important."

"Grogek can handle it." She shrugged. 

"Hah. I doubt it. The man can handle a battalion, but you hand him paperwork, and he's going to use it to wipe his ass." 

"Captain Jordan?"

"Will only be used in times of emergency, and after plenty of preparation." 

"Damn it." 

He kissed her neck. "I think I got time in for another before I have to start my day."

"Oh, it's not that. I just..." She turned over and stared into that lovely face of his. "It's stupid." She finally said.

"I think at this stage in the game, we can be honest with each other."

"It's just that..." She trailed off and looked away. He was already raring to go from her estimation and it was a tiny bit distracting. "You know, we could go again."

"Zelinnia..."

"Alright, alright. I just don't want to face everyone." 

He raised an eyebrow. "Everyone?"

"Well, Elunara will just say "about damned time". In that way she does... but, you know... I'm a Blood Elf, you're a Human. People will stare." 

He laughed. "You spend entirely too much time in your own head. Yes, people will stare, as they stared at Elunara, as they stared at Grogek and Tulani and their entire relationship, but people get over it." 

"I don't want to damage your reputation, or put you in a bad position." She bit her lip.

"Beauty, we were in plenty of bad positions last night." He grinned. He was pleased to discover that blushing went straight down to her toes.

A knock on the door had him growling. He climbed out of bed and yanked on his pants. 

He yanked open the door. "Jordan, this had better damned well be important." 

"Sir! I..." He trailed off as he spotted the Blood Elf holding up a bed sheet. His brain flipped a switch and he just openly stared.

"Jordan." Renwa's voice brought Jordan back to present. 

"Sir! I am sorry to have... disturbed you, but you didn't show up for the meeting and I-"

Renwa swore. "I forgot about that. Make my excuses; I'll be out in a minute." He slammed the door in Jordan's face. "Goddamned bullshit." He muttered as he went to the wardrobe and began to dress. 

Zelinnia frowned. "I'm sorry."

"No, don't. I completely forgot about it. I'm sorry to have to push you out this way." He bent down and kissed her. 

She sighed. "You in your uniform makes my brain melt."

He grinned. "I'll keep that in mind." 

She pulled her dress over her head. "Elunara won't let me live this down, I just know it."

"You could always move in." 

She froze; her arms in the air, the dress halfway on. "What?"

"You know... if you want." He helped her get the dress on and kissed her again. "Consider it, please?" He asked. 

"It's a bit sudden." She blushed a lovely shade of scarlet, and he desperately wanted to find out if all the parts looked the same fabulous shade. 

"Just consider it." He gently pressed his lips to hers before turning for the door. He looked back once more before closing the door and heading out. 

Zelinnia just stood there in the center of the room looking around. It was a small space, but she knew General Renwa merely slept there. It wasn't like she had many possessions of her own... Staring at the messy bed sheets, she blushed. Something near her feet caught her eye and she picked up Renwa's shirt. Before thinking about what she was doing, she put it to her nose and breathed deeply. Her eyes flew open and she realized the predicament she was in. 

Her feet were moving before her mind could complete the train of thought. She opened the door and stepped out. Not aware of anything else to do, she closed the door quietly. 

"Why, Zelinnia," A voice had her jumping and looking around. "I didn't expect to see YOU here."

Zelinnia stared at the old lady whose name she kept forgetting. "Oh, um, hi." She blinked several times before blushing even deeper. "Bye!" She ran away. 

Mrs. Finister frowned and furrowed her brow. What in the world could that Blood Elf have taken from Renwa's apartment? She would find out one way or another. 

Zelinnia ran in the Barracks building and closed the door behind her. Elunara looked up from her sketch work. 

"I take it things went well." 

"Hush you." Zelinnia pointed.

"What do you have in your hand?"

Zelinnia looked down at her hand and her eyes went wide with horror. "Nothing!" She said quickly and stuffed it down her dress. 

"Uh, ok..." 

"I have to... do things. Yes, things." Zelinnia went back out the door and closed it behind her. 

Elunara grinned. Someone kept a souvenir.

"What is wrong with me? What is wrong with me?" She was practically chanting to herself as she ran up the hill to Elunara' favorite art spot. She flopped down beside the tree and sighed. Tugging the shirt out of her dress she smelled it again. "What is wrong with me?" She muttered as she banged her head against her knees. 

"Hey, Zelinnia."

She quickly stuffed the shirt back in her clothes. "Uh, hey... Jerry?"

"Yeah. Are you ok? You seem... off." 

"Me?" She laughed nervously. "No, nothing. I'm fine." She smiled with her teeth.

"You sure?"

"Yeah... I think I'm gonna... go for a walk." She climbed up, hand protecting the bundle under her clothes. 

For the rest of the day, it seemed to be one person after the other. She couldn't get to Renwa's room; it was in the middle of everything. She finally escaped to the far end of the north orchard. She was just on the outskirts of the area when someone grabbed her by the arm. Looking up, she faced Mark.

"Oh, hey." 

"Listen, I like you, a lot..." 

Zelinnia's eyes went wide. "But you have Jenny, and I... well I, uh..."

"No. not that. Look, I like you. You saved Tulani, but you can't steal things."

"Steal?" She shook her head in confusion. 

"We know you took something. Since it came from Renwa's office, it must be information. Are you going back to Horde?"

Zelinnia stared at the hand on her arm. Her eyes flicked up to Mark. "What are you talking about?" 

He yanked her up. "Don't play innocent. Mrs. Finister saw you with something in your hand as you left Renwa's office. A few other people said they saw you trying to hide something in your clothes." He frowned. "I don't want to have to search you, but I will."

"But I didn't..." Her face went red as she remembered. "Oh, it's so not like that. Please, I can't... I can't tell you." 

Mark grabbed her other arm and began dragging her towards town. She started fighting against him. 

"It's not like that." Tears streamed down her cheeks. "Please."

"We like you because you're Elunara's friend, and you saved Tulani, but you can't take things." 

"Just give us back what you took." Jerry frowned at her, his arms crossed over his chest. 

"Please," she cried. "I'll put it back, but I can't give it to you. I can't let you see."

There was a ring of them now. 

"Zelinnia," Jerry sighed. "Please, you're making things harder. We were just going to ask you to give the item back and drop it, but if we have to get Renwa, this is just going to get messier for you. As Elunara's friend, you can't betray her trust."

"But, I'm not! It was a mistake!"

"Then give it back."

She wrenched an arm free and clung to the bulge in her dress. "I'll put it back, but I can't let anyone see..."

"See what?" Renwa's voice boomed over the crowd. 

Zelinnia tried to turn and run but Mark had a death grip on her arm. She struggled and fought as he walked closer. If dying of embarrassment was physically possible, she was soon to achieve it.

"Sir." Jerry snapped to attention. "Zelinnia was seen leaving your office with a bundle of some sort. Many of us have seen her throughout the day trying to hide an object, but none of us have been able to ascertain what the object even is. She moved further and further out of town, so suspicions turned to important documents of some sort."

"And why was I not informed of this?" 

Zelinnia refused to look at him.

Jerry shifted uncomfortably. "Sir, we had hoped that, as Elunara and Tulani's friend, we could convince her to return the missing object and redeem herself. However, she has refused to do so."

"And you're sure she came out of my OFFICE?" 

Jerry paused and cleared his throat. "Mrs. Finister placed her there this morning."

"Zelinnia?" Renwa softened his voice. "What did you take?"

She shook her head and held her body turned away. 

"Just please tell me." 

"It was an accident." She hiccupped. 

He walked over to her and held out his hand. With her free hand she dug in her dress and put the crumpled shirt in his out stretched palm. He stared at it. 

"Mark, let her go." He said quietly. 

"Sir?"

He set his teeth and glared at the man. "Let her go." 

Mark released Zelinnia. "I... I'm sorry, Sir." He swallowed and held his hands up. 

Zelinnia had no will left in her legs to run, so she merely sat where she was and tried to not cry. 

"Sir, I don't understand." Jerry bit his lip.

"It's a shirt." Renwa held it up. "It wasn't my office she left this morning, it was my apartment, and it was a shirt. I will see the six of you in my office in two hours. I will deal with the nosy Mrs. Finister later. Now scatter, before I make your lives worse."

They ran without dignity. 

Renwa knelt down in front of Zelinnia. "Sweetheart, are you ok?" He pulled off a glove and ran a hand on her cheek. He turned her face to his and discovered her eyes puffy and tears running down her face. "Oh, sweetheart, I'm so sorry." He pulled her into his lap. She wrapped her arms around him and began to weep. 

"I didn't mean to. I just... I picked it up and I... well, then I panicked and I didn't even think about it by time it was too late and..." She managed between hiccupping breaths. 

"Shh, it's ok."

"I didn't want... I didn't..." She choked. "This is so embarrassing." She wailed. 

He kissed each cheek before kissing her mouth. "Zelinnia, I'm so sorry." He held up the shirt. "Here you can keep it." 

She took it back from him. "I wasn't gonna, I just didn't know how to return it." She sniffled. 

He used the edges of the shirt to dry her tears. "Come on, we'll just call it one of those funny stories we tell our kids."

She froze. "Kids?" She squeaked. 

"You're ok with having a couple, right?"

She ran the shirt through her fingers. "Well, I've never given them much though." 

He rubbed his nose on her neck. "We'll worry about that later."

"Yeah..." She bit her lip. 

"Are you alright now?" 

"I think so."

She wiped the heel of her hand on her cheek. "Yeah I guess. I guess we're telling people." She flushed. 

"I want to tell the entire planet, but we'll start small." 

She laughed. "You're funny." 

"Oh man, he was supremely pissed." Louis chewed his thumbnail. 

"Why would she take a shirt?" Mark frowned. 

"Isn't that kind of a lover thing?" Jerry tapped his fingers on his leg.

"Well, he DID say she was in his apartment this morning." Mark narrowed his eyes. Everyone's eyes went wide at the same time. Looking at the hill, Zelinnia and General Renwa came down the hill, hand in hand.

"Oh, shit. Renwa's fucking the Blood Elf." Gerald stared. 

Mark smacked his own face. "We just harassed his girlfriend to tears; he's going to KILL us."

"Worse," Jerry whimpered. "He's going to tell Elunara."

"I think I'd rather clean the latrines with my tongue." Muttered Andrew. 

Zelinnia knocked on the door and then stepped in. 

"Oh look, someone CAN be taught to knock on doors." Elunara winked. "Hey, Renwa."

"Lu." He grinned at her. 

Zelinnia flushed. "I hate how you know everything." She muttered. 

"Sweetie, you didn't come back last night."

Renwa lifted Zelinnia's hand and kissed it. "I will see you later."

She blushed and waved. 

"I vote for a fall wedding, the colors will suit you nicely."

"Oh, stop." Zelinnia flopped down on her bed. "Gah, even Renwa is talking about kids and things. I mean it was just one night." She flipped her hair over her shoulder.

Elunara laughed. "First of all, you don't pull off blasé. Second of all, you don't steal a shirt over a passing fancy." 

Zelinnia groaned. "Everyone tells you everything, don't they?"

Elunara blinked. "Tells me what?" Darguni started crying so Elunara went and put him down with his toys. "The only person that has come in today so far is you. Which reminds me, I have an appointment later, and you'll want to clear out."

"How did you know it was a shirt?"

"You're not a pants kind of chick."

"I don't know what that means."

"It means that you'd bury your face in his chest before you'd bury your face in his crotch."

Zelinnia blushed. "Oh."

He knocked on the door and then waited patiently for her to answer. When the old woman finally opened the door, he frowned at her. 

"Mrs. Finister, I need to speak with you."

"Oh, come in, do you want some tea?"

"No, thank you." He shook his head. "This is about Zelinnia."

She raised her eyebrows. "Did you find out what she took?"

"Mrs. Finister, Zelinnia spent the night in my apartment, and she only had a shirt. She was caused quite a bit of discomfort today, at my own expense."

Her eyes grew wide. "You and Zelinnia?"

"Yes."

A smile crept across her face. "It's about time, boy." 

He shook his head. "What?"

"A man like you needs a good woman beside him. First you were mooning over Elunara, then you weren't, then were, but in a different way. I hope this works out." She nodded. 

"It took me long enough to convince her on a date. Now, I have to convince her that I'm in love with her."

"You'll do it boy, I have faith."



For the Whored Ch. 048



"This has been the most embarrassing day!" 

"Oh, Zelinnia." Elunara wrapped her arms around the smaller woman. 

"I didn't mean to take the stupid shirt." She pushed it into the floor. Blinking at it, she scooped it back up and put it in her lap. "Oh, what is wrong with me?"

"You're in love." 

Zelinnia just stared.

"Oh, far be it for me to tell you what that means. My experience of it is rather limited and hard won." Elunara sighed. "But your emotions are much higher on the surface. You're confused because you've never been this way with another. But there's that part, deep in you that's been sold on him since the moment I shoved you in his arms. If you'd stop running from things that scare you, then maybe you'd let yourself feel something good ever so often."

"Running is what I'm good at." She muttered.

"Then maybe it's time you found something else to be good at." Elunara picked up her board and began working. 

"Sometimes, I hate when you're right." Zelinnia muttered in annoyance, worrying the shirt between her fingers.

"Oh?"

"It was amazing." She mumbled. "Don't look at me like that!" She tossed up her hands. "Gentle, yes, amazing, yes. Dear God, why did morning have to come and be so terrible?" She buried her face in the shirt without thinking. Taking a couple of deep breaths she opened her eyes and pulled the shirt away. "GAH!" 

Elunara laughed. "When you figure out what you're going to do with yourself, Eloise designs the most fabulous wedding gowns. She turned mine into a dress for ceremonies and things. You should see the pictures."

Zelinnia crossed her arms. "Why are you so sure I'm going to marry him?"

"Because that's the kind of person you are." Elunara shrugged. "You're beautiful, but have managed to stay a virgin through all of this time and war. You haven't given yourself once. You finally do, and it's for keeps." She continued to add detail. "I know your type, but I also know you, Zelinnia. You're hard headed, easily scared, and a bit of a snob. You two will be adorable together."

"I'm naming my first child Nara, just to annoy you." She grumbled. Her eyes went wide when she realized what she said. She flopped over, face buried in the shirt and wailed.

Elunara laughed so hard she had to put her board down. "Oh, Zelinnia."

Tulani walked in and blinked down at Zelinnia. "Sweetie, what's wrong?"

"She's in love with Renwa." 

"Oh? Is that all?" Tulani shrugged and put her basket on the desk.

Zelinnia turned her head and glared. "What do you mean, "Is that all"?"

"It's not exactly a secret." Tulani tapped a finger to her chin. "Well, I mean, you didn't come home last night. And Mrs. Finister is telling everyone she can, that she saw you leave his home this morning."

"I'm going to kill that old biddy." Zelinnia growled.

"Oh, calm down," Elunara waved her hand. "That woman hasn't had a scandal since I pulled Tulani into this little affair." 

"I thought her last information coup was telling everyone your mother is Tyrande." 

"Oh, you're right." 

"Can't that woman stay out of people's business?" Zelinnia grumbled, unconsciously rubbing her cheek on the shirt. 

"Old women usually can't, it's their only source of entertainment." Elunara shrugged. "If you cover that thing in tears, the smell will wear off quicker."

Zelinnia jerked up and balled the shirt up and stuck it under her pillow. "Shut up." She mumbled as she flopped back down on her pillow. 

Tulani stifled a giggle. "Oh, I do so hope you're not going to sit in here and mope. You have a wonderful man who enjoys seeing you. You should go enjoy it."

"He's busy." 

Tulani sat down and began her work. "First of all, you don't know that. Second of all, you can't know that until you learn his schedule. Third, you can show your interest in his BY learning his schedule. He'll find it flattering." 

Elunara considered. "Tulani's getting good at this." She grinned. Elunara closed up her board and held a hand out to Tulani. "Care to join me under our tree? I find getting some work done in the sun is quite relaxing." 

Tulani grinned, up for the game. "Let's gather Darguni and make a picnic of it."

"I'm enjoying this plan." Elunara looked over at Zelinnia. "When you stop pouting in embarrassment, you can join us. The sun would do you good." 

Zelinnia took her pillow and put it over the back of her head. She blatantly ignored the lot of them. When the door finally closed, she sat up and tugged out the shirt. This stupid thing had caused her so much trouble today. She wanted to throw it away, but found herself hugging it instead. With some disgust, she shoved it under her pillow. She got up and yanked out one of Elunara's books. Flipping through the pages, she found herself intrigued. She recognized a good deal of the text. 

She began to look through all of them, trying to find the one she knew would be in there. She stopped when she came to a passage. "Grogek took them" Curious, she sat and read the journal entry. Taking out the indicated copies of papers, she began reading the journal entries. By time she finished, tears ran down her face. She returned to the original journal entry. Zelinnia stared at one line for the longest time. "Though I have slit his sister's throat, he appealed to me for forgiveness." 

Zelinnia began digging through the bound books, into the papers and skimming around the drawings. She found the early entries of Renwa. "He's quite tasty, and he understands my needs, I just don't think he understands his own needs." Zelinnia eyed the drawings and decided that Elunara had seriously improved since then. She marked her page and went digging again. She skimmed the pages and stopped at certain passages. After much consideration, she decided that Grogek picked some nasty ones, but not the really bad ones. 

How could the free-spirited woman who had such a loving family, have come from this? She started from what she thought was book one, and began to read with such intensity and speed, that she lost track of all else. Even the knock on the door did not stop her. She laid another book to the side, and picked up the next. She had quite the spread going before the door opened. 

A hand on her shoulder made her jump through her skin.

"I'm sorry; I didn't mean to frighten you." Renwa ran his hands through his hair. 

Zelinnia put her head on the book in front of her. "Gods, you almost scared me to death."

"Sorry. You didn't answer the door, and Elunara said to come on in." 

She rose up. "No, I got involved in..." Her eyes went wide and she tried to push the papers around to cover certain entries. 

"I think everyone that wants to truly know Elunara, should read her books." He lifted a paper. "Oh, is that me?" He grinned. "I've read these before."

"Why?"

He shrugged. "I was curious, and she let me."

"No. Why... this." She gestured to the books. 

"You have to finish reading, and make your own decisions. Elunara is Elunara." He shrugged. 

"It all feels so sad." 

"You're not the only one who thinks that. It seems that Elunara is the only one who doesn't agree with you." 

Zelinnia blushed. "I mean, I started because I wanted... something in particular, but then I found the entry about Grogek stealing her papers... and I went from there." Zelinnia reached over and picked up the open book. "He embarrassed her in the same way I was embarrassed, and she practically thought it was cute. Then, I went deeper and found that he could have done so much more damage, to her, to the town... but he tried to soften the blow, even then."

"I believe Grogek loved her before he left that fortress." 

"Loved a woman who couldn't love him back." She murmured.

"Ah, but that's the thing." He put his hand on her shoulder. "She learned how to love. She learned how to make friends, to break this lock on her heart, and give herself to others." He rubbed her shoulder. "You should read the rest; it'll make sense as she goes along."

Zelinnia stared at the books she had spread out. "I guess. I hope she won't be cross with me."

He shook his head. "I think she's come to expect it." 

She sighed and shook her head. Looking up she eyed him. "I'm sorry, why are you here?"

"I can go if you want."

"No" She turned. "No, I'm sorry. I just got involved in what I was doing."

"Elunara said she was worried about you. This morning seemed to have really given you a shake." 

Zelinnia sighed and leaned her head against his stomach. "I've never been so humiliated in my life." 

He stooped down and laughed. Putting a hand on her cheek, he smiled. "I'll be fine."

She snorted. "You get to say that." 

He pressed his lips to hers, his hand sliding behind her head. 

She broke contact. "You turn my brain to mush." 

He grinned. "I take that as a complement." He nuzzled his face into her neck. "I'll let you get back to your reading... but come back to me tonight." He finished with a whisper. 

"Ok." She said weakly. Even after the door closed, she stared at it for the longest time before putting her hand on the desk. She turned back to the books and it took her a few tries before she started reading again.

So absorbed in her reading, she didn't notice Elunara's return. 

Elunara raised an eyebrow before she passed on by and put the sleeping baby in his bed. She came back out and leaned over Zelinnia's shoulder. Zelinnia was turning the pages with an impressive rapidity. Grogek came in next. He sat down and pulled off his boots. 

"What's she on?"

"Looks like she's about to my time in Grommash's fortress, but I'm not entirely sure. She has an impressive spread going here."

Standing up, he pulled off his shirt and looked over. "She's impressively fast." He cocked his head to the side. "Do you think she's even aware we're here?"

Elunara shook her head. "Don't think so."

"Should we disturb her?"

"Don't think so. Renwa said she almost peed herself when he stopped her earlier." 

"Alright then." 

"Her focus is fascinating, I wonder if there's a creative way we can use this." Elunara tapped her finger on her chin. 

"What are you thinking, my love?"

"Zelinnia has been having a horrible time trying to find her place. I bet you she could decimate some back paperwork for Renwa, and get to spend all day next to him." 

Zelinnia closed her book and tucked it away where she found it; she reached for the next one and caught a movement out of the corner of her eye. She shrieked and jumped back. Grogek barely caught her from landing on his axe. 

"Don't DO that!" Zelinnia cried at Elunara. 

Grogek pushed her back to standing. "We've been home for a good thirty or forty minutes." He laughed.

"You have?" She looked at him, completely baffled.

"Sweetheart, I think I just found you a job." Elunara laughed. 

"What do you mean?" 

Elunara gestured to the spread on the table. "You've covered all of this in the day? Why I bet you could rip through all of that paperwork Renwa has to shuffle around. I mean, he's got a lot to handle, I bet he'd be glad of the help. Of course, a man boning his secretary is SO cliché, but look at what you've done."

"It took me nearly two weeks, spending four or five hours a night trying to pour through all of that myself." Grogek nodded. "You've done it in about five or six hours total." 

"Maybe." She bit her lip.

"You should offer your assistance next time you see him." Elunara shrugged. "I won't mess with it until you're finished." 

Zelinnia pulled out a book and handed it over. "Can I get a copy of this?" She blushed.

"Certainly." She went to a set of books Zelinnia hadn't gotten to yet. "You might want this one, too." 

Zelinnia's eyes went wide. "Oh, my." She whispered. "Yes, please." She croaked. She reached out to touch it but pulled her hand back. "I... I have to go." She whispered, before she turned and fled.

"Well." Elunara grinned. "Don't expect her back tonight."

She wasn't aware she was running until she reached the door to his office. She peered in the small window and saw him at the desk, going through some papers. Try as she might, she couldn't tell if he was alone or not. Bouncing back and forth from one foot to another, she decided her best course of action. If he wasn't alone, she would be business like, and offer her services. If he was alone... she'd get back to that thought. 

Straightening herself out, she raised her hand to knock on the door and froze. What if he was busy? What if he was in a bad mood? Maybe he didn't want to see her. She shivered. Elunara's voice struck her, Stand your ground. Taking a deep breath, she knocked.

"Enter!" Commanded Renwa.

She jolted back. Maybe he WAS angry. But, she's already knocked. With a gulp, she pushed open the door and slid inside. 

"Oh, Zelinnia." He smiled. "I didn't expect you."

She put her hands behind her back and looked around. He was alone, and suddenly she felt very embarrassed. "Uh, well, I was talking to..." She ran a hand through her hair. "I was talking to Elunara, and she said I should... I ah..."

Renwa raised an eyebrow. "Elunara says a lot of things, and if you don't clarify, I'm going straight for her usual response." He gave her a wicked grin.

Zelinnia's eyes widened and she felt a hot flush all over. "She... ah." She pressed her hands against the door and briefly debated running. "She said I should use my skills to help you with paperwork." She blurted out, all at once." 

"Aw, is that all?" He cocked his head to the side.

Zelinnia shook her head. "No, she gave the usual suggestion." She laughed nervously. 

He stood up and took off his gloves. He walked around to her and brushed the back of his fingers across her cheek. "Why are you always so nervous?"

She swallowed. "You turn my brain to mush." She whispered. 

He pressed his lips to hers and the tension went out of her body. She put her hands on his breastplate, and briefly bemoaned his uniform. His hands slid down her back and across her ass. She heard the click of the lock from somewhere behind her. Surprisingly quick, he had dislodged his armor and let it drop to the floor. He pushed his body against hers, trapping her to the door, as their mouths continued to search each other. 

She recognized the shape of his erection pushing at her through their clothes. Not really sure what she was doing, she slid her hands into his pants and cupped his ass. He groaned and moved his mouth to those places on her neck and shoulders. She gasped. His hand was slowly working his way up and down. He found the hem of her dress and slid his hand inside. The sensation of his flesh on hers sent chills throughout her body. 

He shifted his hand and went for her slick wetness. She gasped and arched against his hand, as he slid is fingers through and across. Her hands slid up through his shirt and her nails dug against the flesh of his back. Slowly, he slipped a finger in her and groaned. 

"Zelinnia, I want you, now."

"I need you now." She whispered, as her body ached. 

With his free hand, he worked himself free of his pants. She reached down and gripped the length of him. He moved her dress out of his way and pushed against her. Letting go, she put her hands on his shoulders. He shifted and buried himself in her. With a groan, he paused there. 

"Oh, don't stop." She whimpered. 

"I had no intention of it." He murmured, as he began to work in and out. 

He lifted one of her legs and wrapped it around his waist. Clinging to her leg like a life line; he pumped himself in and out. She arched against him, unable to control her hands. She grabbed at him, yanking his shirt off before she knew what she intended. Acting more on instinct, and those nights she'd watched, she buried her face in his neck, scraping her teeth against his neck. 

"Oh Gods, you're killing me." He groaned. 

She clung to him, her nails digging in his back, as she sucked on his shoulder. When he finally exploded inside, the sensation of his throbbing dick had her clamping down. She shuddered, her back still pressed into the door. His hands clung to her hip and leg. 

"Did..." He gasped. "Elunara teach you that one?" He whimpered; still clinging to her. 

She froze. "What?"

"The shoulder. Dear lord, no one does that." He gasped. 

"Oh." She flushed. "I... kinda watched a few times." She bit her lip. "And read her book about you... I mean, I didn't really think about it... but that's probably where I got it." 

Releasing her leg, He buried his face in her neck. "I'm never going to look at this door the same way again." He murmured. 

"Do we always have to bring up Elunara?" Zelinnia pouted. 

Renwa straightened up. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to." 

She looked away. "It's just... Elunara this, Elunara that. I understand you two used to be something, but I'm just me, and I can't compete with the goddess of sex."

He ran his hands down her arms. "Sweetheart, I didn't mean it like that. I'm so sorry." He put a hand on her cheek. "I don't want you to ever think you're competing with her, or any one."

She pouted. "No one really can. I've been reading her all day. It's amazing. It's terrifying and it's a little bit disgusting. Who the hell can fuck a dragonkin?" She made a face.

"She did a what?" He stared.

Zelinnia straightened her dress. "It's there. It was on a mission with the twilight hammer... in detail. Something about a corkscrew penis?" Zelinnia shuddered.

"Well, there goes my erection." He muttered 

Zelinnia sighed. "I just don't want her to always be there inside one of our heads. I'm not like her; I can't spread my legs around and call it fun. It has to mean something"

"Zelinnia." Renwa grabbed her hands. "I love you. I love you and only you and that's just how I am." 

She stared at him. 

"You said to me, that you wanted something so bad you keep screwing it up?" 

She nodded. 

"That's how it works sometimes. Just don't let me screw it up, ok?" 

"I..." 

He put a hand back on her cheek. "I love you. I want you to love me back."

Zelinnia closed her eyes and laughed. "I told..." She shook her head. "I know what I just said, but I told Elunara today, that I was going to name my first child Nara, just to annoy her."

He froze. "What are you telling me?"

"That I think I do love you? Or at least that I want a shot at it." 

He was kissing her before she could react. His arms came around her and she wrapped her arms around him. A knock on the door had her wincing. 

"Oh, for the love of..." Renwa growled. 

Zelinnia scooted to the side as she rubbed the back of her head.

Renwa opened the door and glared at Jordan. "What now?

Captain Jordan coughed and looked away. "Sir, you're out of uniform."

"How observant."

"No, I mean you really are." He pointed.

Renwa looked down before stuffing himself back in his pants. "Now that we have dealt with that, WHY are you here?" 

"Sir, you wanted these reports as soon as they arrived." 

Renwa put a hand over his face and sighed. "You are right. Come in, and close the door." 

Zelinnia yelped and sat in the corner. 

"Sweetheart, you don't have to hide." Renwa held out a hand. 

Jordan's eyes widened, but he remained quiet. 

"I believe you've met my girlfriend." Renwa grinned. 

"Apparently, I have." Jordan raised an eyebrow. 

With any luck, I might convince her to be my wife." 

Zelinnia rolled her eyes. "Elunara says I should be a fall bride." She slapped her own mouth. "Gods damn it." She muttered. 

Renwa grinned. "In any event, she's so graciously offered to help me with the paperwork. I intend to get her trained on these reports as soon as possible. So, give me what you got."



For the Whored Ch. 049



"Your speed is remarkable." Renwa flipped through the stack of papers. 

Zelinnia stretched. "It's not all that difficult. But if I explained how I did it, I'd just give you a headache." 

He tugged back the edge of her dress and kissed her shoulder. "It's a little late for explanations anyway." 

"I'm not certain Jordan approves."

Renwa slipped a hand down the front of her dress and caressed her nipple, causing her to gasp. "I don't particularly care. Besides," He kissed her neck again. "It's a little late to be thinking about that anyway. Come, let's go to my apartment."

"Alright." She panted. 

The man crossed his arms. "Now, I'm telling you what I saw. All I'm asking is for you to answer me." 

"Mr. Livern, I am not at liberty to discuss that." Jordan sighed. 

"But, Mrs. Finister said..."

"I don't care what Mrs. Finister said." 

"What's going on?" Elunara asked. 

"You'll answer me!" Mr. Livern Stepped around Captain Jordan. "I saw that Blood Elf go into General Renwa's office last night. A little bit later I saw Captain Jordan here knock on the door and a... disheveled Renwa answered the door. Captain Jordan went in. I'm just askin' if Renwa and the Blood Elf are having an affair."

Elunara considered. "Wouldn't one or both of them have to have a relationship going for it to be considered an affair?" She shook her head. "Human terms are confusing to me."

"Don't play that one on me! I know what you do. Now tell me."

"If you knew what I did, you wouldn't bother asking me. You'd know that I am sworn to secrecy for customers new or old." She shook her head. "Zelinnia is my friend. I really dislike you calling her "that Blood Elf"." 

He flushed. "Well, I didn't know her name. Zennia?"

"Zelinnia."

"Zlinia?"

"Zelinnia." 

"What?" The three turned to look at the person in question. She was flushed, part of her dress was torn, and her usually neat hair was flying about her head. 

"I was teaching this nice gent how to say your name."

"Oh. Zelinnia." She said, before turning and jogging away.

"Excuse me." Elunara bowed and followed after.

"I knew it!" The man cried.

Elunara found Zelinnia sitting on her bed in a daze. 

"Are you alright?"

Zelinnia blinked up. "I either agreed to move in with him, or marry him, I'm not certain which, and I ran away before asking for clarification."

Elunara groaned and smacked her head. "Do you ever use your brain?"

"I used several other organs last night, if that counts."

"Only to an extent." 

"Gods, I see him in that uniform and my brain goes out the window. I think I might have found out how to have sex with him and still get him to keep it on."

"Now, I'm actually sort of impressed."

"It's a little hazy, because now I can't remember if I fantasized about it, or if we actually managed it."

Elunara laughed. "Oh, Elune save you. You're a mess by the way." 

Zelinnia looked down. "Damn, I guess I tore one of the dresses you gave me."

"You can ask Tulani to repair it for you."

"I'm going to do it."

"Do what?"

"I don't know." Zelinnia shook her head. "I want him." She reached over and pulled the shirt out and buried her face in it."

"I hate to... interrupt, but I have a couple of appointments later today." 

Zelinnia tucked the shirt back under the pillow and stood up. "Well, I do know I'm going to help him in his office." She pulled the dress over her head and tossed it over Tulani's chair. "I'll go up to the tailor shop and ask Tulani to fix it." She rummaged around and found another dress and tugged it on. "But I agreed to play secretary, so I'm going to do that. Lord help me, I will help him do that, and try to not stare at him."

"I'd recommend putting a chair by the window. Or just storing those thoughts up for bed time." 

Zelinnia cocked her head to the side. "Like in a bottle?"

"Well, I wouldn't recommend writing them down."

"Never mind." Zelinnia shook her head. "I'm sorry I made your desk a mess, can I finish reading them tomorrow?" 

"Sure, tomorrow is free. Wait, the building is free, I'm making a house call to an adventurous couple who'd like my advice on rigging." 

"Rigging?" Zelinnia stared. She cocked her head to the side. "I'm going to save that one for later. Bye!" She ran out the door, Elunara's laugh echoing behind her. 

"Whore." 

Zelinnia barely missed being spat on. She looked up to see one of the guards whack the scarred man on the back of the head. She shrugged and kept on moving. 

"Well, he apparently has a thing for elves." 

The snicker made Zelinnia stop and creep to the edge of the building. 

"Yeah but she's a Horde." Said the other.

"Hey, if Elunara vouched for her, we can't say anything."

"I just think it's weird." Said another. "I mean, he boned Elunara for years, and then she won't give him the day, but she hands over this Blood Elf and says, have at it, so he does."

Someone smacked him. "It's not like that, and you know it."

"Well, it sure looks like it." He muttered. They moved away.

Zelinnia frowned as her shoulders drooped. She swallowed the rock in her throat and continued on to Renwa's office. Her first attempt at knocking was too light, so she tried again.

"Enter!" He called. 

She opened the door. 

"Hello, my Beauty." He smiled. He got up and met her by the door. He leaned forward to kiss her, but stopped. "What's wrong?" He laid a hand on her cheek.

She shook her head and bit back tears. "Nothing. Nothing. I just came to see how I could help." 

"Are you sure? You don't look—" He growled at the knock on the door. He opened the door.

"You wanted a small desk and chair?" 

"Yes, bring it in." He directed where the desk should go and got it to her liking. When the men left he turned to her. "Why do you look so sad?"

She shook her head. "No, I'm fine. I just didn't get enough sleep is all." She gave him a half hearted smile. 

"I wish you would talk to me." He sighed. A knock on the door had him closing his eyes. "I'm sorry, but I have a full day today, we'll have to talk after, OK?"

When night fell, she wasn't even aware of what excuse she made, she just ran. She made it to the building and fought with the handle before pushing it open. She headed for her bed, but found her dress, freshly mended and sitting folded on her bed. She tucked it away with the rest of her stuff and climbed into bed and sobbed on her pillow. 

That was how Elunara found her. "Sweetie, what happened?" 

"I can't... I can't be with him." She sobbed.

Elunara blinked. "Why do you think this?" 

"I'm ruining everything for him." 

"Who told you this?"

She sniffled. "No one."

"Then why would you think that?" 

"I... I heard them." She hiccupped. 

"Heard who?" 

"I don't know." She sniffled. "I just heard them." She wiped her nose on her sleeve. "When I saved Tulani, I was a hero, but when I... when I give myself to Renwa, I'm just another slut."

Elunara felt the fury building. "Who. Said. WHAT." 

"I don't know!" She wailed. "I was on the way to Renwa, when I heard them in an alley. They don't even know I heard them." She buried her face in her pillow and sobbed. 

"There now." She tugged the shirt out from under the pillow, and stuck it in front of Zelinnia's face. "Breathe on this; it'll make you feel better." She rubbed her back. "I'll be right back, ok?"

"Mmhm" Zelinnia mumbled. 

Elunara stepped out of the front door and almost plowed into Renwa. 

"Please tell me she's here." He was frantic with worry.

"Oh, yeah, she's bawling her eyes out." 

"But, why? What did I do wrong?" He frowned at Elunara's door.

"Not you. Apparently we have some rude little gossip mongers who made her feel like a worthless slut."

He froze and turned to Elunara, his face a picture of fury. "WHAT?" He hissed. 

Grogek frowned. "What's going on out here?" 

"Someone said some nasty things, and now Zelinnia is inside crying." Elunara jerked her head.

"Who?" He growled.

Elunara shook her head. "Zelinnia can't identify them, and quite frankly, she doesn't spend enough time around people here, so it would be hard for her to anyway." 

Renwa was shaking with anger. "What do we do then?" 

Elunara and crossed her arms. "First, we calm Zelinnia. Second, I start figuring out who upset her in the first place." 

Renwa calmed himself before pushing open the door. He closed the door quietly behind him. He heard the sobbing and his heart broke. He had to fight the rising anger. He placed a hand on her shoulder. 

She seemed to relax a fraction. "Elunara?"

"No, it's me."

She tensed up and pulled the blanket higher. "Go away." She whimpered. 

"Zelinnia, please come out. I want to speak to you." He shook his head and sighed. "Please? Elunara told me what you said. Please let me love you." 

"Just leave me be." She clung to the shirt she had hiding in her arms. "Just go away, no one wants to see you influenced by the Horde." She spat out.

"Ok, now that's just complete bullshit." He snarled. "You are no more Horde than I am. What else did these assholes say?" He slipped his hand under the blanket and ran his fingers on her cheek. "Tell tell me how they hurt you, so I can fix it."

She sniffled. "They said... that when Elunara got bored of you, she gave you me instead."

Renwa froze. White hot fury streaked through him. It was sheer discipline that kept his hand from shaking. "Sweetheart, you know that's not true. Neither one of us is like that." 

Zelinnia tightened into a ball. "Elunara's been pushing us at each other for months." She sniffled.

"Elunara likes to see people together. She likes to see people happy. You've been reading her work, and I know you've got more to go, but you should have at least learned something about her by now."

"You used to be together, you loved her." Zelinnia worried the shirt through her hands. 

"Yes. I did. I even planned to ask her to marry me. I went so far as to buy her a ring and everything. But I never could ask her. I always knew she'd say no. Even when I planned my way around it all, I knew that nothing I could say to her would work. I wasn't who she wanted or needed."

"And now?" Zelinnia whimpered. 

"And now we're friends." He ran his fingers through her hair. "Listen, I know that you WILL finish Elunara's books and I know that she is always completely thorough in her work. So you will probably find out that I gave her that ring. She wears it on a necklace." He felt Zelinnia tense up. "I came to the point where I realized that Elunara was a fantasy I could never truly have. No matter what she gave me, she would never be what I wanted either. I was in love with a person who never existed. The person I thought I could convince Elunara to be. I would have killed her, just to make her into something she is not. So we... celebrated this realization and I let that fantasy die, because it was bogus. I gave her that ring to symbolize what we're not." 

"What does that make me?" She whimpered.

"It makes you special. My beauty, you're not a fantasy, you are flesh and blood. I don't have designs to make you into something you're not. If anything, Grogek has taught me that you should love your soul mate for who she is, not what you believe her to be. You're a Blood Elf, big damned deal. You're ex-Horde, who even cares? You're funny, and courageous and easily embarrassed. You can fire ball a madman in the face, but you don't want to admit you picked up a shirt by accident. You think you're hiding behind Elunara, when really, she's trying to protect you."

Sniffling, Zelinnia turned her head. "I don't want to ruin your reputation."

He kissed her tear stained cheek. "If I have a reputation, it's for my relationship with Elunara. Dear Lord, they almost refused to let her train missions under me again after the last time, they were worried that our past would compromise any mission I might send out under her." He snorted. "Don't take it wrong, but no woman in Stormwind would have me, I was "that whore's"."

"What about now?"

He shrugged. "Elunara and I haven't had any... sexual contact, since before Darguni was... conceived. Well, I can't put it that way; I was sort of in the running for parentage when she found out."

"Oh. Oh, my." 

"Haven't touched her since. Or any woman for that matter." He sighed. "Though, if you ask the gossiping people, I never stopped banging Elunara." He winced. "But, please trust me over them."

She considered a moment before lifting her arms and wrapping them around his neck. "I just want to love you." She whispered.

"That works for me." He whispered back, wrapping his arms around her. He laughed as he spotted what she was clinging to. 

She flushed. "It's not funny." 

"You know, I have an entire cabinet of them..." 

"Still not funny." She mumbled. 

Renwa and Zelinnia stepped outside, arms wrapped around each other. "You may have your house back." He nodded to Grogek and Tulani. Zelinnia blushed and waved before they walked off. 

"Well, that was adorable." Said Tulani.

Grogek snorted and walked in his home. 

Meanwhile, Elunara had other plans. She made her way through town, building to building, listening to snippets of conversation. So far, she had limited results. Renwa's newest affection was the talk of the town, but so far she'd heard only positive things about a girl who saved "our Tulani" capturing the affections of the General. In some cases it had been the ultimate love story, and made Elunara a little nauseous. She prayed they hadn't the same opinion of her and her family. A healthy dose of distaste always made her feel like she was doing something right. 

If this didn't pan out, she knew where she was starting tomorrow. Technically, it could wait until tomorrow, but the anger in her chest wouldn't be slaked until she'd located her targets. Something caught her attention. She didn't question it, just lay down and angled her head. 

"Well, it's not MY fault, Kathleen." 

"It's not fair!" She stomped her foot. 

"You should have pressed harder, is all I'm saying."

"You're a fool, John. A man like that requires subtlety."

"Well, I guess you were just too damned subtle." He tossed his hands in the air. "Gods, I do not want to know who my sister is trying to seduce." 

"Hmph. Well, I had to get you stationed out here; I have nothing I can offer on my own." She preened in the mirror. "That General was supposed to be MINE. Not some filthy Horde bitch. Took too long for that Night Elf bitch to give up on him. Then he chases her out here to light knows where." 

"Why couldn't you find a different General?" John held his head and sighed. 

"Because I like THIS one. Kathleen and Johnathan. See? It even sounds pretty. Kathleen Renwa." She pranced around. 

"I need a drink." He grumbled. 

"Now, now. A man like Renwa wouldn't tolerate an alcoholic. It's bad for the reputation." 

"Well, I can't spread your nasty little rumor if I don't have company to do it in."

"Oh, FINE. Fine!" She flapped her arms at him. "Go get your filthy drink, but you better not come home plastered again, or I will do it." She grabbed a sheet of paper and held it up. 

He flinched and crossed his legs. "Whatever." He got up and marched outside.

Elunara shifted and squinted. The paper was rolled up, so she'd have to figure out the threat later. She followed John to the nearest tavern. She climbed on the roof and sat at the window closest to the man. She saw some of the men she recognized from training yard. 

"That sister of yours finally cut you loose?" 

John snorted. "I crawled out while she wasn't looking." He chugged at his mug. 

"Don't know why you put up with her." The other man scratched his throat. 

"She's a harpy, but she's just delicate. Doesn't know what to do with herself, so she lashes out." 

"Find some guy to pawn her off on. One of the dopey ones like Mayby's got. That woman is a bloodlust waiting to happen." 

"She says she's interested in one, but she won't tell me who so I can arrange something." He sighed. 

"Maybe she's like Tulani." One said. "You know...female set."

"Ugh, I wish. Tulani's at least sweet and kind. Katy's just a bitch." John muttered, taking another drink. 

"I don't get the female set." Snorted another. "Always figured that a good man would bring it right out of em."

One laughed. "If a man like Grogek can't get it out of her, no one can." 

"Hey, hey leave off Tulani. She's as sweet as cake. Wouldn't hurt nobody."

"Eh, hush, we all know you've got a crush on her." The man laughed. "Between Elunara and Grogek, you can't compete."

"I never said that." He grumbled. 

"Tulani I get." Said John. "It's the Blood Elf I'm not sure about."

"Zelinnia?" One shrugged. "She did save Tulani."

"Yeah, but that doesn't mean much. What else has she done around here?" He snorted. "I heard she stole something from Renwa's office, but then that disappears. She's got Renwa blindsided, that's what I'm seeing."

"How many have you had, man? Everyone knows Elunara has all the important stuff. Why bother with chump change Renwa?" 

"No, I'm telling you. There's something there." John pointed at the other guy. "Sure she's got Elunara's building all to herself during the day, but Renwa has the controlling interest around here. Grogek's title is honorary; we get our orders direct from Renwa."

"Yeah, that's true." Considered one.

"Renwa's the big dog in this little town. What interest does a Horde have here?" 

"Yeah, if the Horde got a hold of all our information..." Ventured the other. "It could turn the tide later on.

The big one snorted again. "Renwa's fucking the little bitch; that much is obvious. But, Elunara's meaner than a little Blood Elf. Suppose the Blood Elf has been trying to get information out of Elunara and not getting anywhere, so she turns to Renwa."

John slapped the table. "That's the thing isn't it? I still say, that Elunara got tired of the Blood Elf, didn't know what else to do with her, and hands her over to Renwa. Little Horde bitch has all she needs now."

One of the other men started laughing. "Are you saying that Zelinnia pulled one over on Elunara? Are you shitting me? I would pay good gold to see anyone slip past Elunara."

John shook his head. "Elunara's got a blind spot a mile wide for Renwa. They've been together for years. But, then Grogek comes around, and Elunara's not sure what to do. Renwa is hers, but so is Grogek. Two big, powerful men, and now she has her hands full. She can keep em both happy for only so long, then Tulani slips in and Elunara now has to push one of them out. Gotta be tough to juggle all three. This Blood Elf is the answer. Prime her up, and present her as a nice present for Renwa." John leaned back and chugged his brew. He wiped his mouth. "The Blood Elf spends time with them; she knows the dynamic, sits and learns it... discovers this Renwa connection. All she has to do is show interest, and now Elunara has a nice little toy for him to play with while she's busy with her two." 

"He has a point." Whispered one. 

Elunara would have laughed until she fell, but she was more disciplined than that. She carefully shorthanded the entire conversation into her notebook. She waited a little longer and there was only more elaboration on a theme, so she headed back to the house. The entire building was dark and she snuck in and found the roll of paper. It wasn't one, but several sheets from her own books, detailing torture techniques against men. She replaced the bundle with a frown. 

By time she was home, it was nearly dawn and yet both were still awake. 

"Why are you guys up?"

They looked at each other guiltily.

"We've gotten so used to our routine, that..." Tulani bit her lip. "Neither one of us could sleep." 




For the Whored Ch. 049



Grogek had his arms crossed grumpily. "I hope you found something." He grumbled.

"You're not going to BELIEVE this one."



For the Whored Ch. 050



Renwa yanked open the door, barely holding on to his pants. "Elunara, I don't have to tell you why this better be important."

"Sorry I killed your morning hour, but I figured you'd want this immediately." 

He backed up and let her in. 

"Hey, Zel." Elunara waved to the woman who had given up on using the tattered bed sheet to cover herself.

"You can't have him back!" She called. 

"Don't want him back." She grinned. 

"No threesomes either." Zelinnia crossed her arms. 

"You monogamists, I'll never understand you." Elunara sighed. 

"To the point, Lu."

"I've discovered a whacky plot."

"What?" 

"Are you aware of a brother and sister, John and Kathleen?"

"The names don't come to mind, those would be in my personnel files... in my office." He ground out. 

She handed him a pair of sketches. "These two?" 

"Hmm. Yes, I do remember them. John is currently training under Grogek. His sister had to come with him... some kind of condition that makes her delicate, difficult to handle. Her brother is the only one who can take care of her at the moment." 

Elunara chuckled. "She is no delicate flower, and she is running the show. He threatens her brother with these." She handed Renwa a roll she got from her own collection. 

"Oh, ow. Nasty, why would she even...?" He shuddered and passed the roll back to Elunara. 

"Not certain." Elunara went back for the portrait she made. "How often have you seen this one?" 

He studied the page. "From first day introductions... after? I can't place her."

Zelinnia leaned in. "I've seen her." She twisted the picture sideways, put her hand over the hair. "See?"

Renwa blinked at it. "You're right. She's usually wearing a massive sun hat. I didn't recognize her without it."

"Why did you turn the page?" Elunara considered the picture and drew a sketch of a hat that she stuck over the image. 

"Because she's always looking around corners." Zelinnia shrugged. 

"Put her in a dramatic pose on the ground, and I probably would have recognized her. She's forever fainting. Claims the sun gets to her. I've suggested getting Ina to help her, or perhaps Eloise to design her a better bonnet. She waved it away, says she's doing the best she can. Then I escort her home, or some other such thing." Renwa considered. "You say she's faking it?"

"She's a vicious little bitch. Her own brother would probably drown her in the bathtub if he thought he could." Elunara sighed. "What I saw was no wilting flower, but rather a nasty woman bent on vindictive revenge. She couldn't do anything about me, but once I was so obviously out of the way..." She shrugged. "You might want to sit down for the rest of this." 

Renwa sat in his one chair and then tugged Zelinnia into his lap. 

Elunara smirked. "I am so drawing that when I get a chance. " 

Zelinnia held her head and stared, wide eyed. "Because some little twat wants Johnathan to marry HER?" 

"I couldn't determine her entire game plan, but I was on an information gathering mission, and I couldn't find a diary or journal with which to glean all information, but yes. Going on what John said, she wanted Renwa to be considered the most important person here. And she wants herself firmly attached to him when he gets any promotions." 

"I could shoot her in the ass." Zelinnia muttered. 

"What concerns me is, who else might have been included in this thought process?" Renwa frowned. His arms were tightly wrapped around Zelinnia, as if trying to prevent her from running away again. 

There was a knock on the door and Elunara opened the door. "Hello Jordan."

"Sir!" He froze in shock, and then sighed. "Zelinnia was strange enough, now you have BOTH of them?" Jordan drooped his shoulders. 

Elunara rolled her eyes and grabbed Jordan by a shoulder and dragged him inside. She slammed the door behind him. 

Zelinnia scrabbled behind Renwa. "Elunara!" 

"Sorry, forgot." Elunara yanked off her own shirt and shoved it over Zelinnia's head. "Now we can continue." 

"Poor Zelinnia." Jordan murmured. "I mean... I don't get your tastes Sir, but that's not mine to judge." He held up his hands. "I haven't heard of this strange rumor though." 

"Elunara, what do you believe the best course of action to be?" Renwa asked. 

She shook her head. "I need more intel. For now, I need you two to be on alert for any of these rumors. Zelinnia and I will go about our days as if nothing has changed. Once I figure out the end game, I can move forward then. 

"Do it." 

"Zelinnia?" Elunara grinned. "Do you need me to get you some clothes?" 

She flushed. "I'll just put my dress back on." 

"Well, I need my shirt back. I was already warned about strolling around naked."

Zelinnia glared. "Jordan leaves first."

He turned the same shade of red as Zelinnia's hair. 

"Dismissed, Jordan." Renwa said mildly.

Jordan turned and fled.

"Good kid; shows too much emotion on his face." Renwa sighed. 

"Well, my last attempts to make a man out of him didn't end well." She got hit in the face by her own shirt. 

"You're terrible, Elunara. You can't even see he has a crush on you." Zelinnia stomped over to get her dress.

Renwa and Elunara stared at each other. "Seriously?" Elunara stared. 

Zelinnia stopped, still bent over. She rose up slowly. "Are you telling me, that the queen, nay, goddess of sex, can't see a boyish crush?" She put her hands on her hips. "I'm so ashamed for you." 

Elunara put a hand to her mouth as she skimmed through the vast photographic memory in her head. "Elune save me, that's why I can't figure out what to do with him." 

"How could we have missed that?" Renwa frowned. 

"Damn it all, my dress is shredded." She marched over to Renwa and whacked him in the shoulder. "Have a care when you remove my clothes." 

"I'm sorry, my Beauty, you're just so tasty, I can't control myself." He wrapped an arm around her waist and pulled her into his lap. He covered her mouth with his.

Elunara lifted her sketch pad and began furiously scribbling. "You two are adorable." 

"Ack!" Zelinnia gasped. "Don't you..." 

"Oh, I'm gonna, you two are ridiculously adorable." 

"Can I get copies of both pictures?" Renwa asked. 

"Would you like a wall poster?" 

"Very much." 

"Done and done."

Zelinnia stomped her foot and blushed. "You two!"

"Sweetness, I always love how your whole body blushes." Elunara laughed.

"Wait, you were aware of this?" Renwa raised an eyebrow.

Zelinnia pointed at Elunara. "Don't you DARE tell him!"

Elunara raised an eyebrow. "That I live with you?" 

"I..." She squeaked. 

"Tell me what?" Renwa looked back and forth between the two, curiosity driving his mind in fascinating places. 

Zelinnia got redder. "It was only the one time! And I was curious and it just... Oh, Gods why can't I shut up?"

Elunara couldn't hold the laugh. 

"You shut up!" Zelinnia was shaking with embarrassment. "Just leave!"

"Should I bring you back a dress?"

"Leave!" Zelinnia stomped her feet. 

"Ok, I'm going, I'm going!" Elunara laughed as she stepped out of Renwa's apartment. She caught the edge of a big floppy bonnet behind a building. She blatantly ignored it. Jordan was standing at the General's office door, eying her warily. 

"Sorry, the General is going to be a few more minutes."

He nodded stiffly and she considered him.

"Well, if you need me, I'm not going to be home much today, I have to make a few house calls."

"Alright." He relaxed only fractionally. 

She considered this as she went about her day.

Zelinnia stared at the door, huffing and puffing. Hands came around behind her and across her breasts. She straightened her spine, but groaned as he began to tease her nipples. 

"I'm not telling you." She panted.

"That's fine, I have quite the imagination." He slid one hand down and stroked her soft folds. 

It had been something of an embarrassment that she got hot every time she thought of that day, but right now, she didn't care. "We were..." She panted. "In the bath, with Elunara and Tulani... and they... got kind of going."

"Is that so?" 

Leaning forward, she put her hands on the door. "And I... was embarrassed."

He was kissing his way across her shoulders, fingers buried in her, hand massaging one breast and teasing her nipple. The hand on her breast moved away, and she could feel him pushing down his pants. 

"And then... they were both on me." She moaned as he slid into her. "I forget who was where." She whimpered. He buried his face in her neck. She collapsed against the door as he thrust her forward. "Their hands and fingers were everywhere." She gasped. With his wet fingers he pulled one of her legs up and back. The other returned to her breast. "I think..." She panted as her vision blurred. "I could feel their fingers inside of me." 

He growled as he sunk his teeth into her neck and buried himself deep in her. She cried out as she tried to find something to hang on to. 

"And..." She tried to focus. "And even then, I thought of you." 

He shuddered violently against her, pressing her into the door, she even as shivered and arched against him. He wrapped both of his arms around her belly. "I'm suddenly very glad that door doesn't swing out." He muttered. 

She squeaked. 

"Gods, woman. You sure know how to drive a man insane." He softly kissed that spot on her shoulder where his teeth marks still sang. 

"I don't know why I thought to do that." She flushed. 

"How many other doors will I not be allowed to look at the same?" He mused. 

"Well, the place is a little small to have more than one door." She pushed away from it. She felt him slide out and decided she kind of liked the sensation. 

"That's it; I'm commissioning a huge house with lots of doors. Lots and lots of doors." He declared. 

"Perhaps we should get Elunara to design it for full usage." Zelinnia tapped on her chin.

"I like this plan." He laughed and kissed her neck. "She does like designing furniture; maybe we can get her to rig an entire house." 

Zelinnia giggled. She leaned back against Renwa and sighed. "Someone wants to ruin me, because they wanted you first." 

"Don't think about it. We'll deal with it as it comes."

"I guess I'm not surprised. I'm just the ex-Horde who showed up; you're the big, strong, sexy, General." 

"You're going to get me going again." He warned. 

"Captain Jordan might string me up if you're any later." She lamented as she rubbed his arms. 

He sighed into her back. "Damn, he'd be right to string ME up. I take hide out of anyone else who's late." He let go of her and moved to dress.

"Dammit, I forgot about my dress." Zelinnia sighed. "How am I supposed to get to Elunara's now?"

He froze. "You said Elunara's, not home." 

She blushed. "Oh. You're right." She tapped a hand to her chin. "Well, I do want to finish my work reading her journals, but I only have a couple of outfits left." She held up the tatters of her dress. "It's not like I have much there other than a bed to sleep in, and I can do that here. She rocked her head back and forth. "I might miss talking to Elunara, and Tulani, but they wouldn't mind if I came over. And Grogek just scares the shit out of me by existing." She tossed the ruined dress in the garbage can. "Well, I guess I am moving in." 

Something had changed in Renwa's face as he moved back towards her. He placed his hands on either side of her face. "I will do my best to please you." He whispered.

"But, you already d-"

He kissed her softly, slowly, pressing deeper in before she was lost in the sensation of his mouth. 

Her fingers trailed up his back and shoulders. 

A knock on the door shattered the moment. Renwa growled. "WHAT?"

"Sir!" Jordan called from the other side. "Are you coming out today at all?" 

Renwa sighed. "Yes! Just... a moment more, then I'll be out." 

"Yes, sir!" 

He laid his forehead on her shoulder. "I better get to work. I of all people must maintain my routine." 

She laid her hand on his cheek. "I might not be in today; I don't know how much more of Elunara's work I have to read."

"Alright, come in if you can." He kissed her chest. "You can borrow some of my clothes. They'll be a little big on you, but you can make it to Elunara's to change." He considered. "You'll need some clothes then." 

"Yeah, I'll figure it out." 

"There's lots of figure out." He grinned. 

He tossed her a shirt and a pair of pants. "Here, those will work for now."

She tugged on the shirt and held out her arms. "Yeah, it's a little baggy."

He stared at her. He swore. "Work is going to be a pain in the ass today."

"Huh?"

He kissed her. "Because I will have that image in my head while I wait for you tonight."

She blushed. "Oh." She quickly tugged on the pants. "Well, I guess I can just hold them up as I run." She wiggled her feet into her shoes.

He laughed as he snapped his shoulders on. "You are a sight." 

She ran a hand through her hair. "I am a fright, you mean." With a sigh, she opened the door. "It will have to do."

Jordan eyed her warily as she tried to not look at him directly. She looked back and forth, and then took off like a shot. 

"Are we actually going to get some work done today, sir?" Jordan eyed Renwa. 

Renwa patted Jordan's shoulder. "You're a good man. Keeping me on track. I'm not mad at you in the least." He nodded. "Come on, I have a couple of stops to make."

Zelinnia knocked on the door and heard nothing, so she peeked in. Seeing no one inside, she slipped in and closed the door. Breathing a sigh of relief, she striped down and grabbed a dress and slid it over her head. She attacked her matted hair with a hairbrush, before settling down at Elunara's desk. True to her word, everything had been left as Zelinnia left it. She picked up the next book and began to read. 

Tulani found her there, still reading. "Hello, Zelinnia." She called softly. When the woman didn't respond, Tulani shrugged and carried the sleeping Darguni to his bed. She laid him down and tucked him in. She came back and Zelinnia hadn't budged. Tulani eyed the pile of men's clothing by Zelinnia's bed, before going to her own desk and starting on her work. 

It was near nightfall before Elunara made it back home. She opened the door to find the two women at their desks, working. 

"Welcome home." Tulani whispered.

Elunara kissed her. "Don't worry, when Zel gets in the zone, she doesn't hear a thing."

"Is that so?" Tulani looked over. "She's quite intense. I've never seen anyone burn through books like she does."

"It's kind of fascinating to watch." 

"Want to know fascinating?" Tulani grinned. 

"Someone learned a secret."

Tulani lowered her voice, just in case. "Renwa has commissioned a mess of dresses."

"Is that so?" Elunara considered. 

"Yes, and word is, he asked about a spot of land." She giggled. 

"Oh my." 

Zelinnia slammed a book closed. Tulani jumped and looked guilty, but Zelinnia just reached up and grabbed another one, returning the first as she did so. She cracked the book open and started turning the pages. She stopped, muttered and dug around. "Now, I know I saw... ah, that one." She began comparing the two books.

"She's a little scary." Tulani whispered.

"I'm curious as to what she's on to. I looked over everything she has there. I couldn't make heads or tails of what she sees."

Tulani stared. "You don't know how she's reading your own books?"

Elunara shook her head. "Not even a little."

"Of course!" Zelinnia exclaimed, startling them both. She reached out, running a finger on the bindings. "Why didn't I see it before?" She muttered, as she pulled out a new book and compared it to the first two.

"Ok, now I'm a little worried." Muttered Elunara. 

"That stupid bitch has been here all along!" Zelinnia exclaimed. She carefully worked out a page from the new book. She dislodged a different page and held both up to the light. 

"What bitch?" Elunara asked.

Zelinnia startled so hard she fell backwards out of her chair. She hit the ground with a crack. "Ow... don't DO that!"

"Zel, I've been here for about twenty minutes, calmly chatting with Tulani. She's been here for hours. I contend that you shouldn't get so involved in your work." She shook her head and helped Zelinnia up. "Now, who is the bitch?"

Zelinnia held up the paper she still had in her hand. She reached out and picked up the other one. "Kathleen. You have a near perfect hand with drawing crowds of people and it's kind of crazy to see, but when you brought me the drawing of her, something was in my mind. Well, when I started reading you again, I came across a picture of the men training in the valley, and she's there standing on the edge." Zelinnia pointed to the picture. "See?" She held up the other page. "This made me remember what I had seen before." She shook her head. "I can't explain it in a way that makes sense to people, but my background memory said I'd seen that exact thing before... and before. So I double checked, and if you hold them up to the light, they overlap near perfectly." 

Zelinnia demonstrated with the sheets of paper. "The dumb bitch needs to buy a new hat." 

Elunara blinked at the sheets. "I'll be damned." 

Tulani looked at the page. "Is this the foul woman?"

"One is from Stormwind, one is from here." Elunara considered. "How fascinating." 

"I don't know what the significance of it is though." Zelinnia flopped down in the chair. "I'm about 2 more books shy of finishing your library."

"That's fine." Elunara tapped the pages together. "I will need my desk back tonight, so if you could clear anything you're finished with..."

"Oh, I will. I only need another couple of hours I think. Then..." She trailed off as she looked at the pile. "Can I look at these any time I want?" She asked. "And always visit?"

Elunara blinked. "Yes, yes you can. Why?"

"Well..." She fidgeted in her seat. "I kind of agreed to move in with him."

Elunara laughed. "I was wondering how long that would take." 

Zelinnia narrowed her eyes. "You just know every damned thing, don't you?" 

"I know people. I know men and women in love. And I know the frequency in which you yank each other's clothes off, so yes it was inevitable. I was just hoping it was sooner, rather than later, because I was going to have to kill you if you took too long. Sappy little buggers." She muttered. 

"Aw, but I think they're cute." Tulani smiled. 

"How'd you get home?" Elunara grinned. 

"I wore his clothes." She blushed. She turned back to the books. "Hush the both of you; I want to finish this tonight." 

Elunara grinned. "Well, since you're busy reading, you won't mind if Tulani and I have some private time?" 

Zelinnia raised her arm in the air. "Whatever." 

"Oh, but should we?" Tulani cocked her head to the side in question. 

"Let's use the big bed." Elunara grabbed Tulani by the wrist and tugged her up. She yanked off her shirt and wiggled out of her pants. She then helped Tulani out of her dress, tossing it on the floor. 

Pushing Tulani on the bed, Elunara kissed her, and slid her hands down the Draenei's arms. She ran her hands across Tulani's breasts, carefully teasing the nipples. 

Tulani moan softly and spread her legs out. 

Elunara ran one hand down and slipped her fingers through Tulani's soft folds. She slid a finger in and then knelt down and buried her face in Tulani's crotch.

Zelinnia winced. She could hear the shifts and moans and she was having an awful time getting back to reading. She hazard a glance back and saw Elunara's face in Tulani's crotch and her own hand buried in her. Before Zelinnia could figure out what she was doing, she had her own dress off and walked over to the two women. 

"I don't know what you do to me," She murmured. "But I want in." 




For the Whored Ch. 050



Elunara grinned. "Climb on the bed and lay on your side." 

Zelinnia did as instructed. 

Elunara turned to Tulani. "You get to pick, top or bottom?"

"I'll go for bottom." Tulani giggled. 

"What does that mean?" Zelinnia stared. 

Tulani adjusted in the bed and grabbed Zelinnia's legs. She ran her fingers through Zelinnia's soft folds before sliding one finger in. "Oh, she's already nice and wet." Giggled Tulani, before she licked Zelinnia wide. Zelinnia gasped. 

Elunara leaned down and kissed Zelinnia. "Tulani's been wanting to play with you again. I just had to let her. But would you do me a favor?" She lay down in the bed, crotch at Zelinnia's face. 

Zelinnia reached out and took Elunara's legs; she ran her fingers in and out of Elunara's folds. 

"There's a good girl." Elunara whispered, before pulling Tulani towards her and fingering the blue pussy.

Fascinated by what Tulani was doing and curious herself. She played with the lips before pressing a couple of fingers in and out. She looked at her slick fingers and delicately tasted them. Deciding it wasn't all that bad; she tried to mimic the motion and licked. She got quite into it, fingering and licking at the slick wetness. She began to shudder, but hung on to Elunara's ass, determined to continue on through her own orgasm. 

Elunara laughed and dislodged Zelinnia's hands. "That's enough, sugar."

"Sorry, I just wanted to do a good job." She flushed. 

Elunara dug out a wet rag and washed Zelinnia's face. "I'm sorry darling. I wasn't kidding when I said that Tulani wanted a go with you again."

"You're just so pretty." Tulani blushed. 

"And I figured, once you move out, you won't do it again. Now or never."

Zelinnia sighed. "I don't know what you do to me." She shook her head. "I like men. I want men, I want a certain man. I see him and I think, oh goody. I see you..." She rubbed Tulani's cheek. "And I want to hug you and protect you, and make sure no one hurts you. I see you..." She put her hand on Elunara's arm. "And I'm pretty damned intimidated. I've been reading your books because I want to know you. I want to understand the person you are. But, when I see you two going at it... Gods, I just want to leap on top. Sexual preferences be damned." She laughed. "That being said, seeing you and Grogek go at it, all I think is "Oh my gods, that thing is huge keep it away from me"."

"Yes, he can be pretty intimidating." Tulani murmured. 

Elunara shot Tulani a strange look that made Zelinnia feel bad. "I didn't mean to upset you."

Elunara shook her head. "No, it was my fault." 

Zelinnia shook her head. "I can't keep doing this." She whispered. 

"Doing what?" Tulani rubbed Zelinnia's arm.

"I have to know. Are you trying to keep me here?"

Tulani blinked. "No, I... Oh. I guess that was selfish of me." She frowned. 

Zelinnia put her hand on Tulani's cheek. "No, don't feel bad. I'm sorry. It's just... I'm so conflicted about the way things are going, and my head gets so jumbled up." She grabbed her head. "I think I'm in love with Renwa."

Tulani sighed and kissed Zelinnia's cheek. "I'm happy for you. I think you're made for each other." She smiled, though it didn't entirely reach her eyes. "You saved me. Whether you saved my life, or you saved my dignity, it doesn't matter. You saved me. Elunara saved my soul, and I fell in love with her for it. You saved my body and... I wanted to return the favor, but I don't have a clue how. I thought that... if I gave myself to you, then I could show you what you did for me. Instead I've hurt your heart and made you so confused. Please forgive me."

Zelinnia gave a half laugh. "I guess we both suck at understanding a situation."

Tulani smiled. "Yeah." 

"Friends?"

"Friends." Tulani wrapped her arms around Zelinnia.

"Hey, I'm a friend too!" Elunara wrapped them both in a hug. 

The door opened and Grogek walked in, putting down his axe. "Please tell me I get to be involved in this?" He grinned. 

"Oh geez." Whimpered Zelinnia. 

"We were just finishing." Elunara grinned. 

"Aw." 

"But I'll gladly recap the details." She purred.

"OK! I'm out of here!" Zelinnia scrambled off the bed and yanked her dress over her head. She dug under her bed and pulled out her spare dress, and then grabbed the bundle of Renwa's clothes from the floor. Belatedly she remembered the other shirt and dug it out from under the covers. "I'll be back... tomorrow. Maybe." She ran out and slammed the door behind her. 

Grogek blinked. "What was that about?"

"She's moving in with Renwa."

"So we don't have to be quiet anymore?"

She giggled. "Yeah."

"About damned time." He snorted.



For the Whored Ch. 051



She ran all the way there. She stopped at his door and panted. Pushing back her hair she knocked softly. Out of the corner of her eye she caught a movement, but it disappeared when he opened the door. 

"I was starting to worry you'd changed your mind." He kissed her. 

"I got... delayed." She laughed. "Sorry, I meant to come sooner, but you know how distracted I am." 

"Elunara tells me you can lock on to your books so hard, that anything can go on around you and you not notice."

She blushed. "Yeah."

"Did you ask Elunara about a floor plan?"

"A what?" She blinked.

"To build a house?"

"Oh. OH! You're serious about that?" She considered. Shaking her head she dumped the dirty clothes in the pile. "No, but I did find something interesting."

"What?"

"Ah, damn it, I left the pages on Elunara's desk." She sighed. "Anyway, going through Elunara's drawings, I found Kathleen in some of Elunara's pictures of Stormwind."

He blinked at her. "I'll be damned." 

"If I remember the dates correctly, the picture is almost six years ago."

"That's slightly terrifying."

She shivered. "I think I was followed." 

Now he was incensed. "What?" 

"They vanished when you opened the door." 

He wrapped his arms around her. "You're safe now." 

She looked up at him and smiled. "Yeah, I am."

Kathleen smashed the vase against the wall. "That stupid bitch!" She stomped on the broken shards. 

John held the ice pack to his head and winced. He had been sleeping off the hangover, when Kathleen had stormed in. "You knew she'd go back."

"Just because he had her once, doesn't mean she gets to do it again."

John decided pointing out that it was more than once, was just plain stupid. 

"She will NOT keep MY husband away from me!" 

He also decided that arguing semantics with Kathleen was impossible. "Sis, we'll figure it out."

She paced back and forth. "The rumor isn't spreading fast enough. What is wrong with this stupid town, that a rumor takes so damned long to spread?!" She tossed a random breakable thing against the wall. 

"No one wants to say anything bad against Elunara. They're damned terrified of her already."

"But WHY?" Kathleen growled. "She's just some dumb whore that services the men. Everywhere else in the universe she'd be reviled and rejected, not allowed to come out with the common folk."

John winced and sighed. "Elunara is a power all her own. You want to know why, you go talk to her." 

"Maybe I will!" She stopped and cocked her head to the side. "Maybe I will..." She murmured. 

Captain Jordan was pleased to see that General Renwa was in his office first thing in the morning. He raised an eyebrow at Zelinnia, sitting at her desk, neatly going through paperwork. "Sir." Captain Jordan Saluted.

"At ease." 

"Sir, the new aqueduct is coming along according to schedule, but there's a land dispute to the east of it."

"With?" 

"Our men and the... locals." 

"I assume you use the term loosely."

"Since they're what we believe are the origins of the spore people, yes."

"Fun. See if there are any wandering adventurers nearby before dispatching our men."

"Understood." Captain fidgeted. "Sir, good to see you back on track." 

Renwa laughed at the closed door. "A couple of days off, and suddenly I'm derailed." 

She grinned at him. "Well, I enjoyed derailing you. Maybe we can do it more often."

He started to stand, but there was a knock on the door. "Enter!" 

Both stared in shock at the woman in the large yellow sun bonnet. 

"Oh, General Renwa, I..." She froze as she stared at Zelinnia. 

Zelinnia hoped that her expression gave away nothing, but she knew without a doubt, what white hot hate looked like. She had seen that expression before, on Elunara's face. When it was turned on her, she felt ice cold.

The woman tore her face away and fluttered a fan in front of her. She acted as if she would swoon. 

Swallowing a sigh, Renwa pulled forth a chair. "Please, sit."

"Oh, General. I'm so sorry." She fluttered her fan. It's just so hot today, but I needed to come." 

"And what may I help you with?" He smiled. 

"You see, it's my brother... I think he's come down with something."

"Has he now?"

She fluttered her fan and dabbed a hanky on her bone dry forehead. "Yes, he's just something ill. I don't know what to do about it. You see..." She fluttered her hands. "I've never been very healthy, always needing someone to care for me." Another fanning. "It's just so difficult for me to get around on my own." The hanky went to her lips. "Now that he's ill, I just don't know what to do for myself." A lesser man would have said her movements were timid as she placed a hand on his chest, head tilted up. 

Though the bonnet blocked most of what was going on, Zelinnia had seen enough to roll her eyes and propped her chin in her hand. 

"I was just hoping that you would see to it. I just didn't know who else to ask." She whimpered. 

"I'll see to it myself." He nodded in agreement. 

"You will?" She almost squeaked it.

"Yes, I shall have Ina herself see to your brother's condition."

"You..." Her eyes flew opened and her body language changed. "What?"

"I shall contact Grogek, have John's activities postponed until Ina declares him well." 

Kathleen held out her hand. "Oh, that's not necessary, we... we can handle on our own. I just." She scrambled through her brain. "I just know that I need help. From one that... who can help me carry on with the day to day, while I nurse my brother." She fluttered her lashes.

"I'm certain Ina can recommend a suitable helper."

"Oh. Oh!" She put her hand to her mouth, "But how will I know I have the best? I mean, I... I was hoping..." Her breath got sulky. "I was hoping YOU could help me."

He shook his head. "Out of the question. I have too much to do here. In fact, I'm going out of my way to even send for Ina or to contact Grogek. I'll just have to carve this small moment of time for you." He turned. "Zelinnia, can you handle things for me while I go get Ina?"

"Oh, don't..." Kathleen winced.

Zelinnia straightened up. "Yes, sir." She answered, unsure of where he was going with this one.

"Good. I like having a woman I can rely on to get things done." He took Kathleen by the arm and practically hauled her up. "Come; let's see to your brother." 

The door closed and Zelinnia snorted. She broke into giggle fits. 

Kathleen fluttered her fan and clung to Renwa's arm. "Oh, but sir..." She simpered. "I wish we could walk like this all the time." Again with the lashes. 

"I wouldn't, it'd get sweaty after awhile."

She blinked in shock. "That's...not..." She stopped and smiled at someone who was staring. The fan flapped, the lashes fluttered, and the smiles were wildly given. 

Even if he had no clue what she was up to, he's find her highly annoying. Now, she was just insulting. 

"Oh, look, we're here." He practically shoved her into the door of the healing building. 

Ina gave him a dirty look. "What in blazes are you doing?"

Renwa looked very stern, but slipped in a wink. "Ina, this young woman's brother is ill and she needs your help. She claims she is unable to care for herself on her own. Please recommend her a care giver. I need to get back to my duties."

Ina blinked at him and gave him a look of "we'll talk later".

He dislodged himself from the woman.

"Oh, but General." 

"Sorry, that's all the time I have today." He gave her a courtly bow, before heading back to his office."

When the door opened, Zelinnia stopped giggling. Seeing Renwa alone, the giggle continued. 

"That was kind of fun." He grinned. 

A knock on the door had them straightening. 

"Enter!" he called. 

Elunara stuck her head in. "I heard giggling..." She grinned.

"Oh, it wasn't that." Zelinnia rolled her eyes. "Bonnet made a grand entrance, only to spot me and get off her game. She got shuffled out the door by General Renwa."

Elunara smirked. "Is that so?"

"Yes, apparently her "dear brother" is sick, and she wanted MY help in taking care of her until he was well." He rolled his eyes.

Elunara put her hands on her hips. "Does that dumb bitch have even the SLIGHTEST clue how leadership works?"

"I assume she's read too many crappy romance novels." Zelinnia rolled her eyes and went back to paperwork.

"Apparently not." Renwa shook his head. "What brings you to this side of town?"

"Oh, I came to ask Zelinnia when she was going to finish her project on my desk." She turned and looked at the woman in question. "I can't follow how your mind works, so I've just left the mess. If you could get back to it and finish, I kind of need my desk back." 

"Oh, sorry. I kind of forgot..." She blushed. 

"Well, Renwa does have a way of erasing your memory." She winked. 

"Elunara..." He sighed.

"Oh hush. She's read my books, she knows what we did." 

There was another knock on the door.

"Enter!"

Captain Jordan walked in and frowned. "Something wrong?"

"No, I just came to speak to Zelinnia about the mess she left on my desk." Elunara sighed. 

"Oh." He frowned as he looked at Zelinnia's tidy workspace. "She seemed efficient enough." He finally said. 

Zelinnia flushed. "Sorry. I have a habit of cross checking things. I... well, I could try to explain it to you, but everyone I've tried, gets this confused look on their face, pats my shoulder and walks off." She slumped the shoulders in question.

Renwa kissed the top of her head. "If it works for you, it's good enough to me." She smiled up at him. 

Elunara spotted the rise of pink in Jordan's cheeks and considered. She put her hand on his shoulder and smiled. "I'll see you later." The shifting expressions across his face were mixed, but it confirmed her suspicions. With that in mind, she left. 

A moment later, Zelinnia caught up with her. "I figured I'd finish my reading now."

"That's fine." Elunara put her hands behind her head. "You're right you know."

"Huh?"

"About Jordan. I saw it this time." She shrugged. "I guess I never looked for it, because he always acted like I was just there to mess up the mind of Renwa. I always thought his affections lay there." She sighed and dropped her hands. "Hard to love a guy who isn't even in to that." She twisted her mouth. "So now I have to wonder, when did that one happen?" 

"After you broke the connection to Renwa." 

Elunara froze. "What?"

Zelinnia dug a toe in the ground. "That's one of the many things I've been cross-referencing. After you and Renwa came to your little agreement, Jordan's perception of you changed. I haven't finished it all, but... yeah, it's there."

"Wait, if I didn't know it, how do you?"

"Your work is so perfect, it's kind of scary. I think the end result, is that you captured it without even realizing what you were doing. You can see it in the shifts, in the expressions, in the mannerisms. Come on, let me show you." 

Elunara stared at the sheets Zelinnia carefully laid out for her. It was there, always there; in the expression on his face as he looked up at her on the hill during training; the stance of him by her side. It was subtle, but she was always brilliant at the details. There had been times when she looked at her own work and couldn't remember drawing a detail here or there... but this...

"...The hell am I supposed to do with this??" Elunara stared in disbelief. 

"Well, that I can't tell you." Zelinnia frowned. 

Elunara sat, staring at the picture of Jordan, his hand barely reaching out toward her. It was the day she had returned from Lorros, and his expression was pained. At the time, she was pleased that he'd worried for her, now she was appalled by the raw hurt in his face. She rubbed her forehead. "Well, things just got a lot more complicated."

"You could always get yourself captured again and bring back a girlfriend for him, like you did with Renwa." Zelinnia gave a half laugh at her own bad joke.

"No, I've got to figure out how to work this out." She drummed her fingers on her leg. "Just... clean this all up when you're done. I don't think I have to tell you to get the pages back in order, or I will be cross."

"I have a system."

"I'll trust your system. I'm going for a walk."

Part of her didn't want to have this conversation, but her heart knew she needed to. She made her way down to the training yard, and didn't have to wait long before Grogek met her. 

"Hello my life, come for a spar?"

"I need to speak with you about something Zelinnia discovered." She looked around. "Away from the others." She jerked her head back and walked up the hill to her favorite tree. She crossed her arms and leaned against the tree, watching the activity below. The men were disciplined enough that he didn't have to say a word to them.

"What bothers you so?" 

"Zelinnia has been going through my papers and noticed something that I never did." She shook her head. "I'm not even sure what to do about it." 

"You're scaring me." He whispered. 

"Jordan is in love with me."

Grogek barked out a laugh. "You can't be serious." 

Elunara held up the page. 

Grogek took it carefully and frowned. "It..."

"There's more." She shook her head. "I didn't see it when I was drawing, because I didn't realize it was there to see. I always thought that he disliked me, was in love with Renwa, but these are not pictures of a man fawning over his superior. 

"This IS a strange problem." Grogek frowned as he stared at the page. 

"The picture is from when we returned after Lorros. This is not a man concerned for a villager or even a friend... It's "

"...a man worried about a lover." Grogek finished for her. "When's the last time he's been in your room?"

"You were there." She murmured. 

"Oh." He sighed. "That might explain why he refuses to speak when we're both in the same room." 

"I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm at a complete loss for what to do." 

"I don't blame you. This is a sticky situation." 

"Curious about Zelinnia's claim, I made a polite gesture towards him." She sighed. "It was subtle, but very much there. I couldn't deny it." 

Grogek handed the picture back. "The decision is always yours my love." 

She laughed as she stared at it. "Gee, do I take on another lover, or do I find him someone to pawn his affections off on." 

Grogek gently kissed her mouth. "You have always followed your heart. I trust you to follow it again."

"First Zelinnia's little problem, now this. My head is killing me."



For the Whored Ch. 052



She screamed in rage and heaved a plate into the wall. "That stupid little SLUT was sitting at a desk in HIS office!" 

"Sis, I don't' know why you thought he'd drop everything for you." John winced. Something in the food did NOT like his stomach.

"It took me FOREVER to dislodge that stupid little dwarf."

"She's a healer; she's supposed to care about your health. Did you get my stomach medicine?"

"Ugh, no. Go get it yourself if you're that bad." She paced back and forth. "I will NOT be denied." She turned on him. "Do you hear me? I've worked TOO long at this, to be PUSHED aside by some filthy Horde bitch." Her personality turned on a dime, and tears welled in her eyes. "Can you believe what he SAID to her?"

"You've repeated enough, that yeah, I can."

"SHUT UP!" She threw a bowl. 

What did he do in this life or the previous that made him deserve this? He curled up in a ball. 

There was a knock at the door, and Kathleen grabbed up her bonnet and readjusted herself. She tossed a blanket over some of the broke crockery and pulled open the door with a flutter. 

"I've come to look at your brother." Ina pushed past Kathleen and didn't see the hate on the girl's face. Not that she would have cared.

"Oh, thank the Gods." He whimpered. 

Zelinnia started cleaning up her work. She understood it now; she finally had the answers she wanted. With a sigh she considered the contents of Elunara's life and how the Night Elf came to be who she is. No wonder people loved the woman. Zelinnia was fairly certain she loved her too. Shaking her head, he returned the book to the shelf and frowned. She sat the book back down and tapped on the wall. She shifted the books off and tapped around. The door finally popped free. Inside was a different book. 

She hesitated. This one was hidden for a reason. Elunara had given her everything. She looked down at her mess. What could be so bad, or private that it wasn't included in an already horrid life? Her mind screamed to close the door and forget it existed. Her thirst to know Elunara completely, drove her to pull down the book. She opened it and gasped. 

"What are you doing?" 

Zelinnia about jumped out of her skin and she slammed the book closed. She fell out of her chair and scooted back. "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I just... it was an accident!"

Elunara sighed as she picked up the book. "Zelinnia, you really don't want to read this."

She swallowed and sat up. "What... is it?" She shook her head. "It looks grotesque." 

"You should know by now, that I have spent my entire life figuring out the male body. How to bring it pleasure and how to bring it pain. You also know I'm a mission specialist and that I have done some... bizarre things in my search for the truth. What you don't know, is that I have also perfected more than a few torture techniques. Most of which have been used in plenty of interrogations. I have kept extensive notes on this as well. This book holds everything I know that can make a man suffer endless agony. I have killed men and taken apart their bodies to find information, and I have gathered it in here. There is a couple more like this. I've been at it a long time. All for the good of the Alliance." 

Elunara ran her hand over the cover. "I haven't actually used anything in these books in years. Not since they silently decommissioned me in favor of keeping Grogek in check. What worries me is that Kathleen has pages from these books. The only other people aware of the existence of these is the uppers at the SI:7." With a sigh she held the book out. "You may read it if you wish."

"Ah, no. No thank you." Zelinnia waved her hand. "So that's what you showed Renwa the other day. But why would Kathleen have them? And what is she going to do with them?"

Elunara shook her head and tucked the book back in its hiding place. "I don't know, but she threatens her own brother with them."

"Ew." 

"A disturbing turn of events, honestly." Elunara held out a hand. "Come on, let's clean up your mess, and then go speak to Renwa." 

"Zelinnia is in danger, and until we can figure out what to do about John and Kathleen, she shouldn't be by herself."

"I agree." Renwa nodded.

Zelinnia sighed. "But if I'm to be escorted everywhere, doesn't that make me look guilty of something?"

Elunara shrugged. "We break it up. Every guard in this town that I personally vet must keep you in view at all times. They do not have to walk beside you, but rather know where you are."

"Who are you suggesting?"

"Gerald has excellent spotting skills, Jerry and Louis are weaker, but their hearts are in the right place. Mark has proven himself capable. We can expand as we figure out who is not in on this dumb little teenage plot. I wish I could use a contact in SI:7. I'd love to have an eye on Kathleen."

"What about the Night Elf pair?"

"Oh, Vivi and Linal?" Elunara considered. "Yes, Vivi is highly adept at recon. I'll include them as well."

Zelinnia skimmed a fingernail down the papers on her desk. She pulled out several, shuffled them around and then handed them to Renwa. She then went for another pile and tugged out a sheet. 

"Don't forget we have a bunch of new people coming through the ports in a few days."

Renwa flipped through the papers. "She has a point." He grinned. "See? You're helpful."

She blushed. 

"I'm going to call a meeting with Grogek and Jordan, just so we can get all of this down." 

"I have another mild problem that Zelinnia pointed out." 

"Oh?"

"Jordan is in love with me."

Renwa's eyes widened. "I thought Zelinnia was kidding."

"She brought me the evidence and I have to agree with her."

"Oh, that IS a problem."

"I find it interesting that I have such a photographic memory that can near perfectly recreate a scene, but Zelinnia's reading memory is so spectacular that she noticed things I didn't see in my own papers."

"How... fascinating." He considered Zelinnia in a new light.

"Maybe they're right." Zelinnia grumped. "I'm just a trade off for Elunara." 

"Please don't say something like that, it breaks my heart." Renwa frowned. 

"Sorry."

Elunara laughed. "Sweetie, it just means we get along because we're so alike. We understand each other."

"I'll get a runner to gather the people we need." Renwa stood up. 

"Someone wants to hurt Zelinnia?" Jerry frowned. "But why? She's so nice!"

"I'm still sorry I thought you were a thief." Mark turned red. "And embarrassed you so badly."

"Can we not mention that?" Zelinnia mumbled.

Grogek had opted to stand outside, since his bulk took up most of the room. It was decided that Renwa needed a bigger office if Zelinnia was to have her own desk. 

"The persons in question are Kathleen and her brother John. At this time, Elunara believes that John isn't a threat, but could become one if his sister presses him to do so."

"I know those two." Louis popped up. "Kathleen is nasty. Like, seriously. She's not dangerous and terrifying like Elunara, but she wants to be. Thinks she is."

"Aw, I feel the love." Elunara grinned.

Louis flushed. "I... didn't mean it like that."

"So why has Kathleen set her sights on Zelinnia?" Gerald cocked his head to the side. "Oh, I'm aware of them too. In fact, I have smacked him in the head for some of his comments about Zelinnia, but I don't see how his gossip opinions mean anything."

"First off," Elunara sighed. "They aren't his opinions. Not if what I heard has any indication. She gives him things to say."

"Ok, but that still doesn't explain it." 

"Second of all, Kathleen wants Renwa to marry her. Third, Zelinnia is dating Renwa. Therefore, Zelinnia is in her way, and she thinks rumors and speculation will help her in her ultimate plan."

"What, is she twelve?" Gerald wrinkled his nose. 

"No, but she has personal leverage against her brother."

Gerald snorted, "What could she possibly have on him?"

"My hidden papers." 

"Wait, you mean...?"

"Yes."

"Ok, ew." Gerald shuddered. 

"What hidden papers?" Asked Jerry. 

"Sorry, sugar, you're not high enough on the chain to have that information, nor will you ever want to." 

"Trust me on that." Gerald shuddered and shook his head. "But, how could she get those? The only known copies are in SI:7. Well, I guess you'd have kept a copy."

"Right, doesn't explain where she got them." Elunara shrugged. 

"So I'm to track this tart?" Vivi wrinkled her nose. 

"Unfortunately. You'll have to establish her patterns before going in for anything substantial; she's a bit of an unknown." Elunara frowned.

"I can tell you that John trains down in the yard during most days, but often cops out because he takes care of his sister. They have claimed all this time that she has a medical condition leaving her quite delicate, and he misses a lot of days to take care of her." Gerald scratched his neck. "Then at night, when he can get free, he usually goes drinking and runs his mouth with all kinds of bizarre speculations. Unfortunately, he can be very charismatic when he wants to."

"Well, I keep seeing that awful bonnet peering around buildings. Since I've been walking with Renwa, I see her more and more." Zelinnia blushed when all eyes turned on her.

"I suspect that when John is down at training, Kathleen goes spying." Said Gerald. 

"At this time, all we know is that Kathleen is unstable and untrustworthy. I worry that, once her rumors peter out and die, she'll up her ante. I don't want Zelinnia hurt, because some little girl has a fantasy crush."

"Should we start perimeter at your house, Elunara?" This from Linal.

"Actually..." Elunara began. 

"Zelinnia has moved in with me." Renwa finished for her. All eyes shifted back and forth between Zelinnia who was trying to make herself smaller, and Renwa.

"I wonder if Kathleen is aware of this." Gerald frowned. "I could make her escalate." 

"That's why we're having this meeting. Nothing must happen to Zelinnia." Elunara nodded. 

Gerald sat down at the bar. "Give me something mild tonight." 

"Spotting?" The bartender slid him a drink. 

"I just need to keep my head tonight." 

"Gotcha." 

"Crazy John been in tonight?"

"Not yet, but I bet he'll be in soon." 

"Yeah, I figured." 

"Five gold says he'll give us something new tonight." 

"You know something I don't?"

"I live next to them. Wish I had an ear in that building, but I can tell you, she's been breaking shit again."

"Is that so? How do you know he's not breaking something on her?"

He shook his head. "There's something in her harpy screeching that chills my blood. It's not fear, believe me. It's pure rage."

"Think it's as he says? The frailty gets to her, makes her crazy?" 

"That chick is no frailer than I am, buddy." 

"Hmm. I'll take your bet, even if it is loaded."

The bartender laughed. He straightened out. "Hey, you don't think there's something to his stories, do you?"

"Which part?"

"That the Blood Elf is a spy."

"You doubt The Whore?" Gerald raised an eyebrow. 

"Not... exactly." He sighed. "Does she still go by that? I hate using that code these days."

He shrugged. "She told me once, that the more you use it, the less meaning it has. She wants all meaning erased from the word."

"And to leave it with the meaning she gave it. Yeah, I get it." He gave another sigh. "Well, there's Crazy John now." 

Gerald walked over with his drink in hand and sat down. "You're looking rough, man."

"Ugh, this world doesn't agree with me. Ina says something I ate is tearing up my insides."

"Rough. I bet having to care for your sister at the same time is troublesome." 

"Eh, it's ok. Lately she's been mooning over some guy. Takes up all her time. She leaves me alone, mostly." 

"Well, who?"

"If I knew that, it'd have already slapped a bow on her and ran." 

Gerald laughed. "I imagine you would." 

"I love my sister, but she gives me a goddamned headache." John reached for the mug and began chugging it.

"Ever wonder if the thing making you ill is the alcohol?" Gerald sipped his own drink. 

"Gods I hope not. I don't know how I'd survive the day."

Several guys came in and took seats around the table. Gerald gave a small nod to Linal. 

"Hey John," Said a burly man Gerald recognized as Tim. "Whatcha got for us today?"

"Who's the Night Elf?"

Tim hit Linal in the arm. "This is the guy that knew Elunara before she was a mission specialist. Says he has heard of her reputation, but never learned the details." 

"You fuck her too?"

Linal shook his head. "No. I knew her before she'd even started." 

"Damn, I'm impressed." He chugged. "How long ago was this?" John took another drink. 

"Fifty years."

John spit out his mouthful. "How old is she?"

Linal furrowed his brow. "In her fifties, nearing sixty."

"You're telling us that she's an old granny?"

"To our kind she's barely more than a child. We're still expected to live past our two hundreds, even with our source gone." 

"Damn." John blinked. 

The waitress set down the tray of drinks and doled them out. 

"I wonder if Blood Elves have the same thing going." 

Linal shook his head. "Blood Elves were corrupted by their thirst for magic; they have a significantly lower life expectancy." 

"They're addicted to magic? Yeah, I think I heard something like that before. That's probably why she's doing it."

"Doing what?" asked another. 

By time Gerald helped John home, he desperately wanted a bath. Kathleen had been all fluttering with worry, but there was an angry fury beneath it. He met Linal at the end of the alley. 

"That was disturbing." Linal shook his head. 

"Well, if they have anything to say tonight, Vivi can handle it." Gerald rolled his shoulder. 

"I feel bad for Zelinnia. She's so sweet."

"Yeah, but vultures go after the weak ones first."

Gerald waited until Zelinnia left the building, before slipping in to Renwa's office and giving his report. 

"Some days I regret that we cannot jail someone for their opinions." Renwa's knuckles were white. "Thank you for saving your report until after she'd left." 

"We feel bad for her. She's a very nice girl." Gerald looked out the window. "In fact, we're all hoping it works out."

Renwa grinned. "I intend to make it."

She felt like she was running a race of check points. Even just to grab a bite at Tippy's, she ran into Jerry, then Louis, then Mark, and finally Jerry again. They wanted to besmirch her reputation, not kill her. With a sigh, she sat down at the table and waited for her sandwich. 

"Oh, but I can't! I just can't!" 

Zelinnia startled and looked backwards. Bonnet was standing there, stomping her foot and fluttering her fan. 

"Katy, can we not?" 

"I can't eat at a place that would serve HER!" She pointed at Zelinnia.

"Now see here..." Tippy put her hands on her hips. "I will not have you harassing that poor girl in my establishment." 

"Poor GIRL?" Kathleen shrieked. "The HORDE killed my parents! I would think that I get precedence here! I was in this town first!"

Tippy softened her voice. "Yes, I know the Horde took your parents, but Zelinnia is NOT Horde."

"Once a Horde, ALWAYS a Horde." Kathleen snapped her fan down. "I know what that little slut is doing to our town. She spreads it for the General and now we all have to listen to her! Well, I'm not buying it!" 

Zelinnia shrank down, the heat spreading quickly through her face. 

"Kathleen..." Tippy's voice lowered in warning. "I will have none of that here."

"We ALL know it!" Kathleen pointed at Zelinnia. "Trained by the original whore." 

The loud crack echoed through the building. Tippy stood there, huffing and puffing, hand in the air. "How DARE you!" 

Kathleen was holding her face in shock.

Zelinnia saw her opening and took off running, brushing past the massive bonnet and flounces. She did not stop until she found herself curled up in Renwa's bed, hiding under the blankets. 

"Sir!" Jerry gasped and doubled over. 

"You are to knock before entering." He said mildly. 

"It's Zelinnia." 

Renwa bolted out of his chair. "What happened? Where is she?" 

"In your apartment." He took a deep breath and straightened. "Sir, Kathleen showed up at Tippy's and started saying some disgusting things... Tippy cracked her across the face though."

"I knew I liked that woman." Renwa muttered as he pushed past Jerry. 

He didn't know what was worse, the sobbing from before, or the dead silence that met him. He saw her shift, but not much else. Dumping his gear on the floor, he approached the bed. Gently he placed a hand on her side. 

"Zelinnia? Talk to me, sweetheart."

She shuddered and he briefly wondered if she'd fallen asleep. He tugged the blanket back. Yes, the silence was much worse. She had cried so hard that her face was nearly purple. She had been reduced to shuddered breathing. 

"Sweetheart, you're going to have to breathe at some point. And if you don't, I'm going to try and do it for you, and I don't think it will work out all that well."

She gave a shaky laugh. "You're weird."

He kissed both cheeks. "Please, talk to me."

"Gods, I hate that horrid woman." Zelinnia curled up tighter. "She said such awful things in front of all those people."

He brushed his fingers in her hair. "I'm sorry sweetheart; you know none of it is true."

"I don't care if it's true or not. She still said it where other people could hear it."

He pressed his lips to hers and ran his fingers across her chin. "It doesn't matter anymore. Let me make it better." He whispered. 

She held her arms out. "Johnathan." She whispered

Pressing his mouth back to hers, he shoved the blanket out of the way. He yanked off his shirt and climbed in bed beside her. With a gentle tug, he began removing her dress. His arms came around her, and she wrapped her legs with his. 

"Please." She whispered. "Fill me." 

He groaned against her mouth, as he pulled off his pants and pushed her over. Slipping in between her leg, he slipped himself into those warm wet folds. Trailing his mouth across her chin and down into the curve of her neck, he lost himself in the feel of her. "My beauty, they could never make you less than you are. He murmured. 

"Just having you for myself is enough." She groaned. 

Turning over, he pulled her on top of him. He grinned up at her and placed his hands on her breasts. "Do you know how mad you drive me?" 

"Couldn't possibly be as much as you make me." She leaned down and licked his chest. 

He chuckled. "We're a pair, aren't we?"

"Something that bitch will never understand." Zelinnia captured Renwa's mouth for her own.

Kathleen slammed her bonnet into the ground. Thinking better of it, she picked it up and fluffed it out, hanging it neatly on the rack. "That foul bitch." She examined her face in the mirror. "It better not bruise." 

"Dammit, Kathleen, Tippy's was the best place to eat; did you have to pitch such a fit?" John sighed as he sunk down in the chair. 

"When I'm the General's wife, that bitch is being shipped to the middle of nowhere. I don't care where; she can't stay in MY town."

"If you become the General's wife." He grumbled. 

"Excuse me?" She growled at him. 

"I TOLD you to not openly insult Elunara." He shook his head. "The entire town either worships her, or is completely terrified of her. Even General Grogek marches along like a puppy." He rubbed his temple. "You saw what she did to Terrance, and Renwa just stood there and watched her. Openly insulting Elunara is a death sentence." 

"Oh Gods, you sound like one of them." Kathleen rolled her eyes. 

"I'm just sayin'." 

"Well, she'll be the first thing I get rid of, THEN that Tippy."

John stood up. "I'm going out."

"Excuse me?"

"Well, I got to keep up your dirty work." He snorted.




For the Whored Ch. 052



Kathleen stepped in front of him. "No, I have a new plan." 

By the end of it, John had gone sheet white. "Kathleen, that's sick. No, I'm not doing it." 

"Oh, yes you are. I'll use it..."

"No. No, look I have a better idea." 

"I'm all ears."

"We fake it. I don't... I mean, we don't need to resort to... THAT. We just make her look guilty. All they have to do is catch us, and they can fill in their own conclusions."

Kathleen tapped a finger to her chin. "Continue..."



For the Whored Ch. 053



Zelinnia glared at the sunrise. She wrapped the blanket back over her head. 

"Nuh uh." Renwa yanked the blanket off of her. "You're not going to hide in here." 

She curled up, the cold air crossing her body. "You can't make me." She muttered. 

"I need my secretary. I have a busy day today; paperwork is just going to hold me back." 

"Fine!" She slid out of the bed and picked up both of her dresses. "I never replaced the torn one." She muttered. 

"Oh, then it's a good thing I had them go ahead and send over the first part of my order."

"Huh?" 

He opened the cabinet and she dropped both dresses. Half of the cabinet was now taken over by an array of colors. She approached it with some trepidation and ran her hand along the sleeves. She looked back. "These are mine?"

"Eloise had them delivered yesterday morning. I didn't get a chance to show you... after."

She pulled out one and looked at it. "It's lovely."

He shifted his feet. "I sort of ordered an array. I didn't know what you'd like." 

She threw her arms around him, tears in her eyes. "They're amazing. Thank you." 

He wrapped his arms around her. "I'm glad." He looked up. "Though I'm going to need entirely more furniture once they all get here."

"All?" She squeaked. 

"Good thing I requisitioned some land for a house." He considered. "Forgot to ask Elunara for a floor plan. Also, I'm having my office expanded. It's getting crowded."

She literally hit the floor. 

When she next awoke, he was peering into her face with concern. "Too much at once?" He asked. 

"A little." She squeaked out. 

"Is it too much to explain my plan?" 

She shook her head, still clinging to the pretty blue dress. 

He began to get ready for the day. "Well, we're looking at taking the office building and the apartment and clearing the area, making a nice little house with a connected Office for me. We'll make it much bigger, with room for many in the office space but still having room for our desks. I'm hoping Elunara will design some shelf space; I like how hers is set up. I am very serious about asking Elunara for floor plan ideas, but I have a guy who will do it anyway."

"Why are you doing all this?"

"Because I love you, and I think it's time to move my life in this direction, with you." He laughed. "Now, are you going to actually wear that dress? Or just hold on to it?"

She jumped up and slid it over her head. "No one has ever done so much for me before. Well, Elunara did what she did, but that's not even close to the same thing." She wrapped her arms around him. "Thank you... So much." She laughed and wiped her eyes. "Next thing I know, you'll be asking me to marry you, and I'll have to say yes, then things will get really complicated." She sighed and shook her head, not seeing the stunned expression on his face. She opened the door and smiled at Jordan, who held his hand up to knock. "Hello, Captain Jordan." She briefly bowed before scooting around him. 

"Uh, sir?" Jordan raised an eyebrow at Renwa. 

"I'm marrying that woman." Renwa murmured before stepping outside.

Zelinnia made her way down to General Grogek's training yard. She waved at her various tail points, deciding that maybe they were useful. She looked around at the troops, wondering how many of them believed Kathleen's vicious lies. She shook her head and watched Grogek rip into one of the newer recruits. A fresh wave had arrived overnight, she remembered the paperwork. Elunara sat at the top of the hill, drawing away, Darguni at her feet. She spotted Zelinnia and waved. 

"El! El!" Darguni cried. 

Zelinnia hefted the child into her lap. "Good gravy, you're big for your age."

"He's growing rapidly. Some days he slows, but then the next morning he's huge." Elunara shook her head. "Tulani has more experience with children than I do, and she's concerned."

"Not good."

"I just hope his development stays up with his body." 

"Still only the one fang, huh?" She fingered it. "Sharp. The only orcs I knew of with only one fang had broken the other, or was old and lost it at some point." 

"That's what Grogek says." 

"Well, he's a proud papa anyway. Some can't even say that." 

"He was prepared to claim him, even if his parentage wasn't so obvious." 

"So I've heard."

"I heard about your... issue yesterday."

"Yeah. It's ok though. I've decided that, I feel more humiliated that I ran, than I did sitting there listening to her raving."

"Good girl." Elunara patted her leg. "Nice dress." She winked.

"Renwa just gave me a closet full, and said some more is on the way." Her head shook. "He's baffling and... Oh, Gods!"

"What?!" Elunara asked, alarmed. "What happened?"

"Oh, Gods, I ran my mouth again." She slapped her forehead. "I agreed to marry Renwa... and then totally walked out, thinking the statement was all in my head."

Elunara started laughing so hard, she smacked her head into her board. "Zelinnia you are a riot."

Darguni began to laugh, not really caring what the joke was. 

Zelinnia pressed the heel of her hand to her forehead. "Gods, I am an idiot." 

"I'm not sure I can argue." Elunara snickered.

"ANYWAY!" Zelinnia sighed. "I came to ask you if you could help us design a house and some furniture. He likes your library system for his office."

"Alright, I'll see what I can come up with. However, you better let Eloise design your wedding dress, or she'll kill me."

"Fine, fine. I'll even let Tulani get in on it." She grumbled.

"Tulani would wet herself with joy. She still feels bad, you know." 

Zelinnia sighed. "I don't know what to do about that."

"The dress will help. Here she comes now." Elunara waved. 

Tulani made her way up the hill, clutching her basket. "Good of you to join us." She smiled. 

"Hey, Tulani I want to ask you a favor." Zelinnia scooted over to make room.

"Sure, what's up?" Tulani got comfortable. 

"Can you and Eloise design me a dress... a wedding dress?"

Tulani froze and then flung her arms around Zelinnia. "Oh, I'm so happy! When's the date?"

"Uhh, that's kind of the thing... it's not exactly official, it's more like a passing conversation that's eventually going to happen..." Zelinnia gave a nervous laugh. 

"Say no more, we'll take care of it." She giggled. "Eloise kept Elunara's dress a secret from EVERYBODY. Even more impressive, she kept my wedding dress a secret from ME."

"You're married?" Zelinnia cocked her head to the side. 

"When Grogek and Elunara got married, we took a moment to acknowledge my connection to Elunara. We've considered it "our" wedding ever since."

"You guys are weird."

"We are a family." Tulani smiled. 

"Well, if I go the full route, I'll have to get you two to be my bride's maids." Zelinnia sighed. "Oh, now my head is spinning."

"You need Ina. The woman plans the HELL out of everything." Elunara grinned. 

Zelinnia was flying on her tiptoes all through town. She went in Renwa's office with a twirl in her step. She was surprised he wasn't in office, but then remembered he would be out for awhile. She sat down and started on paperwork. She was halfway through with a big order when there was a knock on the door. Surprised to not hear Renwa, she looked up and around. She belatedly remembered he was out. The knock came more insistent. 

Deciding she could handle things for now, she opened the door. She blinked at John. "Oh, Hello. Uh, General Renwa is out on business."

"Oh, Zelinnia. I'm so sorry." John pushed his way in the door. "I guess this is better anyway." 

"May I help you?" She tried to keep her smile polite. 

"Listen, I'm so sorry about yesterday." He grabbed her hands. "My sister... she's a very disturbed individual. I've been trying for years to keep her out of trouble, but she gets thoughts in her head, and just... you know."

She smiled. "It's ok, you can't control crazy people. Look at Garrosh." She laughed and tried to dislodge her hands. 

"No, you don't understand. She's... she's completely unbearable." He swallowed. He let go on her hands and wiped his mouth with his hand. He leaned at the window and then turned back around. "She's reaching a point in which she scares the hell out of me. She wants me to do something... and I can't do it." He wiped his face again.

"Then don't."

"Listen, I don't know a damned thing about you. I really don't. But Elunara vouched for you, Renwa is obviously gone over you. I hate what I've said." He grabbed her hands again. "I really hate the words that come out of my mouth." He shoved her back against Renwa's desk. 

She winced as the wood bit into her thigh. "Then stop saying them. Stand up to her."

"I can't. Don't you understand? I can't!" 

"You're... hurting me." She winced. "If you really don't want to be a part of this, tell someone and walk away." 

"I'm sorry, but I have to." 

"Have to what?"

"If I don't, she wants me to do something worse. SHE might do something worse."

"What are you...?"

He hiked up her skirt and pressed his mouth against hers. She began to struggle and hit him as the door opened. John jerked back and saw the shocked expression on Renwa's and Jordan's face. He looked at her in mock dismay. "Zelinnia! I told you we couldn't keep meeting like this!"

"You son of a bitch!" She screamed as she kicked him in the nuts. 

Renwa crossed the gap in two steps and punched John in the face. He turned on Zelinnia and wrapped his hands around her arms. "Are you hurt?" 

"Only my dignity." She grumbled. 

John was curled in the floor and Jordan heaved him up to his feet. "What the hell did you think you were trying to do?"

"Oh, thank the Gods. Please, arrest me. I'm a horrible person. Just don't make me go back to that lunatic. I think she's been poisoning me." He groaned. 

"Why didn't you just come to us in the first place?" Renwa shielded Zelinnia with his body. "Why try to attack her?"

"Because Kathleen wanted me to rape her, and I had to do something to get myself locked up before..." He swallowed. "You don't know what she has."

"The hell is wrong with that woman?" Zelinnia gasped. 

"I don't know. She's always been completely daffy. I'm sorry, please forgive me." 

"Unlike Tulani, I'm not so forgiving; you should have your dick wrapped around your goddamned neck." She growled. 

Renwa gave a half laugh. "Is it any wonder I'm so completely gone?" He shook his head. "Toss him in lock up. We'll have his sister brought in as well."

"Oh gods, don't put us in the same cell!" He whimpered. 

"Don't tempt me." Jordan growled. 

After Jordan left, Renwa turned to Zelinnia. "Are you sure you're alright?" He rubbed her arms.

She was still flushed from the embarrassment. "Yeah, I'm OK. Really pissed off, mostly. He was in here, apologizing for saying the mean shit he's been saying, talking how his sister's crazy." She shook her head. "Then he's exposing my fleshy bits to the damned world and doing a piss poor job of trying to kiss me." She crossed her arms and fumed. 

He chuckled. "Well, I like your fleshy bits, and I'm fairly certain nothing could be seen from the door; though my vision was a little blurred with red."

"He didn't even think his stupid plan would work. He just did it to get away from his nut job sister." Zelinnia scoffed. 

"You feel bad for him."

"Maybe a little. I don't know." She tossed up her hands. "It's stupid."

Renwa put a hand on her cheek and slowly pressed his lips to hers. "You're just sweet. Like it or not."

"Oh," She blushed. "Elunara will look at the blueprints for the house."

"Hmm." He kissed her again, soft and sweet. Wrapping one hand around her waist, he slid the other one back to thread through her hair. Their bodies pressed together as she wrapped her arms around his back. 

The door burst open, and Kathleen stumbled in, a flurry of flounces and bonnet. "Oh, I just heard the most terr..." She stared at the couple wrapped up in each other. 

They both looked at her with a mixture of annoyance and curiosity. Renwa slid his hand down Zelinnia's backside. "Yes, Kathleen? May I help you?" 

With a cat smile, Zelinnia slid herself loose from Renwa and sauntered around to her desk. 

Renwa straightened up and went to business. "Is something the matter?"

"I... I just... Uh." She narrowed her eyes at Zelinnia but turned back to Renwa, all pouts and sadness. "I just heard the most terrible news! It seems my brother has completely lost his wits!" She patted her hat. "I mean..." She fluttered her fan. "I mean, he's always been a little unstable, and I've been so worried about this drinking habit of his. It's just..." She clamped her hands to her breast. "He does his best to take care of me, and maybe he was looking for some alternative." 

Kathleen straightened her spine and went in for the kill. "You see, he seems to have developed this delusion that the Blood Elf..." She flushed at Renwa's glare. "Had been flirting with him. I mean, he seemed to think that... she'd made efforts to get him alone. I told him it was madness; that she had interests in you, but you know a deranged mind thinks all sort of things." She hid her face with her fan.

"I'm starting to realize that." Renwa said mildly.

Zelinnia hid her laugh behind a piece of paper. 

"It's just..." She flipped her fan hard. "It's..." Her voice started to fade. "Just..." She stumbled. "I might... faint." 

Renwa didn't flinch as she hit the floor with a thud. "Well, that was cute." Renwa snorted. He sighed. "Zelinnia, could you go get Ina?"

She laughed as she stood up. She moved to Renwa and kissed his cheek. "Oh, I hate to leave you alone with the harpy."

He wrapped an arm around her. "It's what she wants."

"Oh, without a doubt." Zelinnia held up her hem and stepped over Kathleen's head. "I'll be right back, then."

"Take your time." He shrugged. Picking up his gloves, he tugged them back on. He was amused that he didn't remember taking them off.

"Ohh, my head." 

Renwa raised an eyebrow at the stirring form. She really didn't pull it off well enough. Her arm came up to her forehead, before flailing in the air.

"Am, am I alone?" She whimpered. 

Renwa stooped down beside her. "I'm here." 

"Oh, Oh, thank goodness." She put a hand on his cheek. "I... ran all the way here... I must have... I must have over done it." She panted, as tears streaked down her face. 

He thought the tears were a nice touch, and wondered how long she'd practiced that one. 

"I'm so sorry." She continued to pant as if every word were painful. "My brother, he's not well. I'm... s-so afraid of him. But I cannot take care of myself."

Renwa helped her into a sitting position. "Is that so?" He murmured. 

"Yes." She clung to the tabard over his breastplate. "I've been so afraid, but I need someone who can take care of me. See to my needs. It's been... so awful to have to rely on him. And then the drinking... I can only imagine what perversions go through his head." She whimpered.

"What makes you think that?"

"The way he talks of that woman."

"Which one?" Renwa bit his tongue. 

"Well, ah..." Kathleen froze, uncertain which direction to take this. Finally decided she would get rid of them both. "Well, that Night Elf, Elunara for one." Kathleen worked up a deep blush. "He describes... activities they've done. With grotesque detail." She shuddered. "He's apparently a regular customer of hers." She fluttered her fan. "And then a couple of weeks ago, he tells me..." She shook her head and seemed to crumple in on herself. Her voice came out hoarse. "That the Night Elf has been training the Blood Elf to take on her extra customers." She shuddered. "That's so awful."

Renwa would bet his entire family fortune that John had never been on Elunara's list. "That's quite disturbing."

"I'm so sorry. I know how fond of her you are. Of them." Kathleen bit her lip and shuddered as if terribly upset. "They... well; John says that they work in tandem. You know... servicing the same man at the same time."

Renwa had tears in his eyes, but it wasn't sadness. "How terrible."

Kathleen fluttered her fan and began to pant as if she couldn't get enough air. "Oh, but it's not for a lady like me to speak of. It's so disgusting and vile. How awful that my brother brought me in on the details." She pressed the heel of her hand to her eye. "Because of this, he seems to believe that the Blood Elf wants him to rescue her. He believes she's in love with him and asked him for help. He'll do anything to have her."

Renwa couldn't help himself any more. "I wonder if I can get in on this threesome. Might be fascinating to have both the women I love at the same time." He tapped a finger to his chin. "Alas, Elunara always said I was the monogamous type. I guess I'll just save that fantasy on my own."

Kathleen stared at him as if she'd been slapped. 

"Of course, once I make Zelinnia my wife, maybe we can revisit the idea."

"You... what?" 

"You know Kathleen, you're a terrible liar." He heaved her up on to her feet.

There was a knock on the door. "Enter."

Zelinnia pushed open the door. "I brought both Ina and Jordan, in case you changed your mind as to which one you wanted." 

"I believe Ina can look over Kathleen after Jordan dumps her in jail with her brother. Though, we'll be nice and not put them in the SAME cell, just next door to each other." Renwa shoved Kathleen into Jordan's grip. 

"WHAT?" She shrieked.

"Nice set of lungs on this one." Ina remarked.

Renwa kissed Zelinnia on the side of the head. "Can you do me another favor, and go find Elunara?"

"Sure, but first, I have to know..."

"She was trying to convince me that Elunara was training you up to handle her excess jobs."

Zelinnia made a face. "Ew."

"Though, having both of you at the same time is quite a fascinating idea." He wiggled his eyebrows.

She smacked him in the arm. "You're awful."

"I didn't hear a no!" He cried after her.

Vivi handed over her report. "Yes, I can confirm the rape allegation. I have, unfortunately, detailed it in my report. The only reason we did not come sooner, was we believed him incapable of trying, however, I had Linal following him anyway."

Linal nodded. "He was aware of my tail this morning. I intercepted him before he could go into the office. He swore to me that she was in no danger and that he wanted to apologize. We had... words, which I will detail in my report, but ultimately I let him go in. I apologize for that. However, I remained by the window, should anything occur. Once I knew you were imminent to the building, I retreated to a watchable distance. You would enter before I could do anything on my own."

Renwa sighed. "While I am annoyed you both let it get so far, I think it was better to have caught them both, than to have tried to arrest them first." 

Zelinnia snorted. "Would it be vindictive of me if we invited that foul woman to the wedding?" She muttered. 

Everyone froze in place and turned to look at her. Vivi, Linal, Renwa, Jordan, and Elunara.

She turned beat red and slapped her mouth. "WHY can't I stop doing that?!" She cried as she climbed under her desk.

Elunara started laughing so hard she stopped making sounds. 

"You make it awful difficult to make a grand gesture." Renwa laughed. He looked back to the small crowd. "I haven't officially asked her yet, but yes, that's our plan so far."

"Well, congratulations!" Vivi smiled. 

"I'm not here!" Whimpered Zelinnia. 

Elunara gasped for air and clung to Renwa's desk. "Zelinnia you kill me." She shook her head. "She won't come out of there for awhile, we should proceed." 

"Kathleen tried to convince me that Elunara was training Zelinnia up as a partner in her... business."

"Pfft, she's too green." Elunara rolled her eyes.

Renwa grinned. "I seems as though John came in contact with her when you... were "training" her, and developed an obsession."




For the Whored Ch. 053



"He's not even on my books." She shook her head. 

"She was really trying to sell the "graphic nature" of his obsession." 

"Kathleen can stuff it up her ass." Zelinnia grumbled. 

"What I want to know is how she got those papers." Elunara crossed her arms. 

Vivi shook her head. "I can tell you they're copies." She reached in a pack and pulled them out. "Not very good ones, and certainly not in your hand writing." 

Zelinnia scooted out from under her desk and leaned over Elunara's hand. "Oh dear lord, what..."

Elunara shoved Zelinnia's head back. "Sweetie, I told you not to." 

Zelinnia crossed her arms. "I'm not five." 

"Fine." Elunara shoved a sheet at her. "Take a look."

Staring down at the sheet of paper, her eyes grew wide. Sheet white, she handed the paper by the Elunara. "Point made." She sat back on her desk. 

Elunara frowned at the pages. "I recognize this work..." She looked at Renwa. "Do you have John and Kathleen's file?"

"I do." Zelinnia went digging and pulled out a file and slid it across Renwa's desk.

He looked back at her. "That was quick."

She shrugged. "I've memorized your entire file system. I even reorganized it..." She shrank back. "I'm sorry."

He shook his head. "No, thank you. I'm completely impressed."

"Well, shit."

Everyone turned and looked at Elunara. "Their parents were SI:7. I knew I recognized that copy work. Had to of been her mother." She frowned. "Didn't you say she claimed Horde killed them?"

Zelinnia nodded. "That's what she was screaming at Tippy's."

"This says missing in action. I need to get an emergency message back to Mathias." Elunara looked at Renwa. "I know for a fact where she got her papers, now I need to do more digging." 

"Do it." Renwa tapped his fingers on his desk. "Well, I guess before I dismiss everyone I should do something first." 

Elunara suppressed a grin, as Renwa dug into a drawer. He pulled out a small box, and knelt in front of Zelinnia. Her eyes went wide and she gripped the desk she was leaning against. 

He opened the box and revealed a small ring with a rather large rock. "Zelinnia, will you marry me?"

The Blood Elf turned dark scarlet. "I... well, I uh..."

"Zelinnia..." Elunara warned. 

"Well," She said weakly. "I guess I did already say yes somewhere in my head." 

He laughed. Taking the ring out, he placed it on her finger. "Knowing you, I take that as a yes." 

The small crowd cheered and clapped as he kissed her. 

He looked back. "Dismissed." He turned to Zelinnia. "Seriously, leave." He didn't look at them again.

Everyone except for Elunara scattered. Elunara grinned as she strolled towards the door. "Gee, I hope I trained her well."

"I don't know, Kathleen promised threesomes." He laughed. 

Zelinnia whacked him again.

"Call me," Winked Elunara. "We'll set something up."

Zelinnia had turned several interesting shades of red. "Don't you have somewhere to be?" She mumbled. 

Elunara winked. "I'll let you get to it. Though, I recommend curtains for your window." She closed the door. 

"Great, now I can't stop thinking about the stupid window." Zelinnia muttered, crossing her arms, even as he tugged off his gloves.

"Hmm, but with your back to it, no one can tell anything." He pried her arms free and wrapped them around his neck. 

She sighed. "Well, you're wearing entirely too many clothes."

"Are you trying to talk me out of it?" He whispered as his hands slid the hem of her dress backward. 

"Ah..." Her breath came out husky. "Just pointing out the complications."

With his free hand he tugged the edge of his pants down, his erection slipping out. "No complications here."

"Well, in that case." She whispered. 

He slipped himself neatly into her waiting wetness and she wrapped her legs around his waist. "Mine." He whispered, before capturing her mouth.



For the Whored Ch. 054



Elunara made a stop by the mage tower and then headed on down. She whistled her way along until she spotted Jordan, standing at the edge of the training yard. She wandered over to him. 

"How's it going?" She smiled. 

His face quirked, but he had his usual dour expression. "Renwa is finally getting what he's always wanted." He murmured. 

"What's that?"

"A wife. A family." He rolled his shoulders. 

"And what do you want?" She murmured. 

"I never figured that one out." He whispered. 

Her eyebrows raised; she considered. "You will never figure it out, if you don't try."

He shook his head. "I have tried plenty. Trying leads to disappointment." 

She shrugged. "That's an awful depressing way to look at it. You're a good man Jordan; you're just stuck in a sorrow filled limbo. Until you try to break forward, you will always be stuck where you are." She patted him on the back and walked away. 

He stared at her retreating form for a long time; watching her wrap her arms around Grogek. He looked away and stared at Tulani on the hill, the baby playing at her feet. With a sigh, he wondered if he should have left when he had a chance. 

Elunara considered the pages in the hand. With a sigh she tucked them in the hidden compartment behind her books. She still hadn't heard back from Mathias and wasn't sure she would. A knock on the door surprised her. She opened the door and was even more shocked. 

"Can I come in?" 

"Uh, yeah." Elunara couldn't remember the last time she'd seen Jordan in casual clothes. 

She closed the door behind him and just stared.

"You didn't have any appointment I'm interrupting?"

"I'm not busy today. Is something wrong?" 

He sighed and appeared to want something to do with his hands. "I'm not even sure why I came over today." 

"Well, you obviously have something on your mind." She sighed. "Listen, how about a sketch? Just a normal portrait, while you figure out why you've come here."

"Yeah, I guess." 

She sat him down in a chair in the center of the room, and then pulled out her board and began to work. "Don't worry about talking; just say what's on your mind." 

"Well..." He hesitated. "Well, I don't know." He frowned. "Today was my day off, and I found myself here." 

She shrugged. "It's nice to have a visit with a friend, I guess." 

"You consider me a friend?"

"I'm still working out the definition myself, but I would say so." 

"I guess I've been thinking about what you said."

"Oh?"

"That's what you did, isn't it?"

She stopped and stared. 

He flushed. "I guess you were stuck in a bad place, but you moved past it."

She laughed. "Sweetie, I've never felt like I was in a bad place. I wasn't after changing my place; it just got changed for me. I wouldn't go back, if that's what you're asking." 

"Are you happy?" He whispered. 

"Supremely." 

"Oh." He fidgeted. 

She laughed again. "You sound unhappy."

He shook his head and sighed. "I don't know what I want." 

"Jordan, for the longest time, I thought you were gay."

His eyes went wide.

"I thought that you had a crush on Renwa, and that you hated me because I captured his interests. Then I thought you were upset with me because I toyed with his emotions." She tapped her pencil on her board. "It was recently pointed out to me, that maybe my thoughts were misplaced."

"I..." He continued to gawk and then blushed. "I never understood you. Not one little bit. How could you give yourself to so many men? When Renwa, my friend, fell for you, I was just so angry how little you seemed to care for him. I was relieved when you disappeared. But he was so completely crushed that, yes I hated you for a time." Jordan straightened up. "We both know that Renwa is a diehard family man." 

"Which is why I left. I wanted him to find someone else. I had no idea he'd latch on to a fantasy." She sighed. 

Jordan's face was grim. "Neither did I." He shook his head. "Then you showed up again, and I just knew it would start all over. Then you brought back Grogek, and it was like you were throwing it in his face." He sighed. "But you changed. You... released Renwa from himself, and then you transformed." His expression was one of awe. "You became a different person and it was amazing to watch. I mean, yeah, there was that... day. But you single handedly changed this entire town into something amazing." 

He shook his head as if coming out of a trance. "I watched Grogek, and then Tulani, and now Zelinnia." He gestured with his hands. "You reach out and you save them. You bring them here and you make them yours. You have this really cool little baby. He should be an abomination, but instead he's so damned cute." 

She was having a devil of a time trying to capture all of Jordan's expressions. She laughed. "Jordan, what are you trying to tell me?"

"I love you." He froze as he realized what he'd just said. He stared down at his feet. "I mean..." He coughed and tried to stare past her. His entire face was flame red and he swallowed. "I mean, you're an amazing person. You do all these things for people, for no real reason, and yet you're completely terrifying when you're pissed off. Your wrath is not to be underestimated." He clapped his hands over his face. "I don't know what I'm doing here." He stood up and started to walk away.

"Jordan, stop." Elunara sat her board to the side and stood up. Placing a hand on his shoulder she sighed. "Don't run."

"I just told a married woman that I love her." He muttered. "I kind of have a right to run away."

"You can't run away from yourself. At some point you're going to have to figure out what you want."

"I can't have what I want." He snorted. "You have Grogek, and you have Tulani. I can't be one of your... customers." Jordan ran a frustrated hand through his hair. "And you're not some fantasy I can chase around." 

"Well, I'd say you've gotten a good track going." She chuckled. "I love my husband, and I love my wife. I don't think you'd be happy trying to replace either. But, Jordan, there are always options that haven't been explored yet." She shook her head. "You need to figure out what would make you happy. Maybe it's not even me."

He ran the back of his fingers on her cheek. "Maybe it is." He whispered. His breathing sped up as he pressed his lips to hers. 

Her responses were always expert, but even now she was so confused that she had no idea what to do. 

His fingers brushed back into her hair and down her neck. He gripped her shoulders and pushed her back. "I have to go." He jogged to the door and yanked it open. The door closed quietly behind him.

"Oh, shit." Was all she could say as she flopped down into the chair. 

That was where Tulani found her. "Is everything alright?"

"Jordan is in love with me."

"Oh, that again."

"No. He came in here and TOLD me he was." 

Tulani dropped her basket. She scrambled to pick it up. "What?"

Darguni started making noises, and Elunara walked into his room and picked him up. "You should have heard him. It took me a few to pull it out of him, but then he started flooding." 

Tulani shook her head. "What is there to do about it?"

"I don't know." She put Darguni with his toys. "I'm going to have to write down the conversation so I can analyze it." She picked up her board and started to work. 

Grogek came in and put down his axe, sat down and pulled off his boots. He looked over at Elunara, still sitting on the bed. Curious, he yanked off his shirt and tossed it in the pile before heading over to look over her shoulder. "Jordan came back for a sitting? Or did you make up him smiling on your own?" '

"Jordan came by. He had a lot on his mind, it seems." 

"Oh?"

"I got confirmation that he's in love with me." 

"Really now?"

"He told me."

Grogek's eyes widened. "I'll be damned."

She sighed. "I know." She ran her fingers through her hair. "He doesn't wish to replace you, or Tulani, and he says he doesn't want to be just another customer. The best I managed to get out of him was that he won't go after what he wants, because he can't HAVE what he wants." 

"That's a difficult situation to be in." Grogek sighed. He kissed her temple. "Knowing you, you'll either find him a girlfriend, or figure out where to put him in your life."

She looked up at him and frowned. "How are you ALWAYS so understanding in all of this?" 

"Because I don't need to know where my place is in your heart. I know you, I see you. I have faith, that no matter how many people you let find room in there, I will always have the biggest and most important part." 

She laughed. "One might consider that arrogant." 

"Hey, I'm an Orc. Comes with the territory." He grinned. 

"Yes, well, when you get naked, I want that Orc dick in me."

He raised an eyebrow. "One might consider that arrogant."

"That just makes the both of you perfect for each other." Tulani smiled as she closed the door to the baby's room. "While you're busy, I have a dress to sew." 

Elunara knocked on Renwa's door.

"Enter!" He looked concerned as she closed the door behind her. "Did you hear from Mathias?"

"No, but I did hear from Jordan." 

Zelinnia bit her lip. "What now?"

"You win, Zelinnia. Except instead of a simple crush, he's completely in love with me."

Her eyes went wide. "Oh my." She whispered. 

Elunara sat on the edge of Renwa's desk. "I have no idea how to take this." She murmured. 

"You? Are at a loss..." Renwa blinked. "Zelinnia, please mark this on my calendar, so that I may savor it while I'm not in shock."

"Oh, ha ha."

"Have you told Grogek?"

"You know his opinion... "Just tell me if I get to watch"."

Renwa shook his head. "Even I don't get that orc." 

"Anyway, I thought you should know." 

There was a knock at the door. 

"Enter!"

A man stepped in. "I was told to get this to Elunara immediately."

She took the small package and passed the runner a coin. Untying the complicated knot, she unrolled the papers. "Well I'll be damned." 

Renwa stood up. "What?"

"Kathleen's parents weren't killed by Horde. Her mother was training as my replacement and her husband her spotter." She filled through the documents. "No wonder this was sealed. They wanted a new me, one who would seduce her target and steal information. She trained on my papers, even tried to copy my techniques, but something went wrong. They were unable to recover the documents she had attempted to gather, but... She was going after the defias." She continued to browse the package. "Both were found with their throats slit, defias poison in the wounds. They had to be fished out of the fountain in Moonbrook." 

"Looks like we need to have a conversation with the sibling duo." 

Zelinnia sighed. "Can I just do paperwork?"

Renwa laughed. "I'd rather you not be present anyway." 

They walked down into the jails. 

Kathleen sat on the bench, obviously seething. Her bonnet and fan had been taken away, and instead of flounces and frills, she sat in a plain brown dress. Seeing Renwa, she flopped to her side and moaned. "Oh, please help me. No one will give me so much as a drink of water, and I'm allergic to this fabric, it's so itchy!" She sniffled.

"Sweetheart," Elunara snorted. "I need to give you acting lessons. Though, from the sound of it, I should have given your mother the acting lessons."

Kathleen bolted straight up. "You have no right to say ANYTHING about my mother!"

John held his hands over his ears. "Please don't get her started. I just had a moment of peace..." He whined. 

"Since you're the more trustworthy of the two..." Elunara turned her attention to John. "Were you aware that your parents were trainees in the SI:7?"

He stared at her. "Bwuah?"

"They weren't JUST trainees!" Kathleen shrieked. "They were the best of the best!"

John blinked dumbly at her. "You knew about this?"

"You always were completely dense." She sneered. "Where did you think I got the papers? Those were mother's. She designed them herself." She gave a haughty sniff. 

"Actually, those were MY papers. You twit." Elunara snorted. "Your mother broke into the files back at office. She was training to be my replacement so she felt she should have been allowed access." 

"That's a lie and you now it!" Kathleen stomped her foot. "My mother was a GREAT spy! Better than you EVER were. She didn't need to sully herself with another man just to get information." 

Elunara flipped to a page and held it up. "Here's a copy of the disciplinary action they took on her for breaking into the files. She did such a sloppy job of it; they debated on throwing her out." Elunara flipped the page again. "Here's where she lobbied for MY code name," She flipped the page again. "And here's the denial because she could not live up to it." Going back to the summary page she held it up. "Your parents were given ONE assignment together, against the Defias, one of the lowest ranking assignments, usually given out to new recruits," Elunara turned the page. "And here is where they got their throats slit for bungling it up." 

"I think I'm going to be sick." John whimpered. 

Kathleen gawked at the sheets of paper in Elunara's hand. "Lies! All of it!" She shrieked. "You fucked Mathias, so of course he'll do anything you say!"

Elunara raised her eyebrows and looked at Renwa. "Damn, I'm so good; even I don't remember that one."

Renwa bit his lip to keep from laughing. 

"Though..." Elunara looked back at Kathleen. "If Mathias is so easily controlled by his dick... wouldn't that topple the entire SI:7?" She cocked her head to the side. "I mean, I wouldn't want that kind of guy to be my superior officer. I wouldn't listen to him at all." Kathleen tried to snatch the papers, but Elunara was quicker. "But, then again, you wanted to try to control Renwa with HIS dick." 

"I'm not a WHORE like you!"

Elunara shook her head. "No, you'll never be as good as I am. But, trying to control this town, by marrying Renwa, would have been the same damned thing. I'm not like you Kathleen, I actually respect men." She nodded to the guard. 

He pulled out a key and unlocked the cell. John scrambled out like a man saved from certain death. 

"Good Bye, Kathleen." Elunara rolled her papers up and grabbed John by the arm. "Let's go have a little talk."

Renwa turned to follow Elunara, but stopped and turned back. "Oh, Kathleen?"

"Yes?" She tried for innocent. 

"You're invited to mine and Zelinnia's wedding. Under armed guard, of course." He smiled and turned away. 

She started screaming obscenities.

"Might I recommend a gag?" John turned puppy eyes on Renwa. 

"Bound and gagged it is." He nodded. 

"You know I didn't mean Zelinnia any harm, right?" John wrung his hands. "Right?"

"Actually, we have something special in mind for you." Elunara smiled. 

"We've been thinking that, living with that woman had to of been its own special brand of torture." Renwa nodded. 

John seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

"But, you're not out of the woods yet." Elunara smiled.

"No, first you much apologize to my future wife." 

"Then you get to sit in the town square and decry your entire mess of lies."

"Then I'm free?" He whimpered. 

"Free and duly humiliated." Elunara tapped a finger to her chin. "Granted, there's going to be a chunk of town who'd like to take it out of your hide." She smiled. 

"Oh, I'll be nice and announce all to be forgiven... eventually." Renwa smiled as he pushed open the door to his office. 

Elunara paused. "Would you like to know why we're doing it like this? Or even why we're being so nice?"

John nodded slowly. 

"Because we've had someone spying on you who vouches that you're not a complete and utter louse." She shoved him in the door.

Zelinnia jumped up. "What the hell?"

John crawled on to his knees and clasped his hands together. "Please forgive me, I never meant you any harm. I know I said awful things but I didn't mean those either. I should have never touched you inappropriately and I promise on my life I will make it up to you, just tell me how. Anything is better than what I've been through... or done. I'll make it right, I swear." He laid his palms on the floor and banged his head into it. I'm so sorry, I'll fix it, I swear it." 

"Uhhh." Zelinnia looked up at Renwa and Elunara, who stared at her expectantly. 

"You can accept or deny, it is your choice." Renwa smiled. 

"If you want me to disappear, I will hide on the other side of town and you will never have to see me again." 

"Uh, okay I wouldn't go that far." Zelinnia sighed. "Look, you're a moron, but I also lived with someone I was terrified to defy. So... I guess I forgive you."

He hugged her legs. "Thank you! Thank you so much!" 

"Let go of me." She growled. "Touch me again and I will kick your teeth in." 

"That's my girl." Both Renwa and Elunara said at the same time. They looked at each other and laughed.

"Now," Elunara tugged John up by his collar. "You may or may not want to see the next part." 

Zelinnia followed them with some curiosity as they marched John into the center of town. Many had already heard of John's arrest and were curious to see what was going on. John stood by the center fountain, and before long, the entire town was gathered around in a circle. Even Grogek had delayed today's training. 

Renwa and Elunara stepped back beside Zelinnia. 

"Hello, my name's John." He fidgeted in place. "I have come to tell you the truth." He swallowed. "

You see, some years ago, both of my parents were killed. We were told that it was due to a Horde attack of some sort, and ever questioned it. My sister, Kathleen never had a medical condition of any sort. One day she decided that... in order to land a strong husband that would take care of her, she would need to be frail. So, she concocted a scheme to land her a powerful husband. One day, I don't know why, she set her sights on General Renwa. She got a little crazy..." He hesitated and looked around. "okay, she went insane, when she discovered that Renwa and Elunara had a relationship. Deciding that a woman like Elunara could never stay still, she decided to wait her out. It was Kathleen's doing that I was shipped out here. I still don't even know how she did it." 

He cleared his throat. "Seeing how Elunara had abandoned her relationship to take up with Grogek... Kathleen decided she was free to, uhh, win Renwa." He scratched his head. "To be honest, Kathleen has never made much sense in how she does things, but she left me out of it." He took a deep breath. "Then Zelinnia showed up and Kathleen went even deeper off the bend. She came to me with a plot to defame the Blood Elf, and get her removed as a traitor to the Horde. Quite frankly, Kathleen has always thought she was a spy, and that subtlety would lead her to what she wanted. I think she was just nuts. I tried reasoning with her a few times, to no avail. She had a nasty temper. Then one day, she brought me some papers." He shuddered. 

"These papers, believed to have come from my parents, detailed torture techniques." His voice grew shaky and he wiped his mouth. "Specifically the mutilation of... male genitailia. She fully believed that she knew how to put these papers in use. I had no reason to doubt her. So, I played her foul little game. It was all childish bullshit anyhow, why not? But the longer it took, the madder she got. What was the point of spreading these ideas, if none of the people I told them to were willing to spread it? No one pisses of Elunara and gets away with it. I'm lucky she didn't find me sooner." He tugged at his shirt. 

"Anyway, Kathleen thought herself a master spy, and with these papers, would secure the future she wanted." He laughed softly. "I spent many hours listening to "when I am Renwa's wife" and how she was going to get rid of people, change the town, all while making a dog out of General Renwa." He shook his head. "She would even make Renwa get rid of Elunara. Because once she was his wife, she would make him get rid of anything that displeased her." He shook his head and stared at his feet. Looking back up, his face was grim. "Then when she found out Zelinnia moved in with Renwa, she went through the roof." 




For the Whored Ch. 054



Shaking his head he sighed. "I'm not sure there's a single breakable thing left in the place. Except for her precious mirror." A few people laughed. "She wanted me to..." He swallowed hard and wiped his face. "Well, she wanted me to... disgrace Zelinnia in the worst possible way. Wanted..." He began to shake. "Wanted me to..." He shook his head. "I couldn't do it. I just couldn't do it! I proposed a new plan, one that would LOOK like I did the bad thing... without actually doing it." He sighed. "I convinced her that a complacent woman was easier to blame than a screaming one..." He said quietly. 

"Still terrified of my sister's insanity, I set it up." He held up his head. "I... attacked Zelinnia in General Renwa's office." There were several murmurs in the crowd. "I actually thought that if I got myself arrested in the process, then I'd be free from my sister."

"Are you the biggest idiot on the planet, or what?" Mark snorted. 

"Yes. Yes I am." John hung his head. "But, I fully believed that if I went to General Renwa with the truth, he wouldn't believe me. I had to do something stupid, in order to get arrested. Unfortunately, they locked me in the same room as my harpy of a sister." He raked his hand through his hair. 

Elunara stepped forward. "What John did not realize, was that we had been alerted to this strange "plot" against Zelinnia some time ago, quite by accident. We had them trailed, curious as to where they were going with this. My agent confirmed that Kathleen was behind this, and that John was just her patsy in her schemes. In fact, I'm fairly certain John's drinking problem and failing health have been a direct result of Kathleen's machinations." She shrugged. "John has been given a choice, explain himself publicly, or stay with his sister." She grinned. "I think he finally got smart." 

A few people laughed. 

"So, there you are." Elunara held out her hands. 

Grogek snorted. "I expect you in the training yard, first thing in the morning." 

"Yes, sir." John nodded. "Thank you, sir."

"You have plenty of work to catch up on." He snarled, before turning and walking away.

People started to disperse but everyone froze when Mark punched John in the face. He shook his hand. "That's for Zelinnia."

General Renwa stepped forward, but John held out a hand. "I deserved that." 

Zelinnia sighed. "Well, I don't think he deserves more than one." She rubbed her hand on her forehead.

"Hey, what's that?" Mark reached out and grabbed her hand. 

Zelinnia blushed and stepped back. "Well, I guess we're telling people now." 

Renwa grinned and took her hand from Mark. "Zelinnia has graciously agreed to be my wife." 

There were cheers in the crowd.



For the Whored Ch. 055



Elunara was drawing beneath the tree on the hill, when Jordan appeared. 

"Is it ok to sit?"

She smiled. "It always is. I enjoy the company." 

Jordan sat down, and Darguni crawled into his lap.

"Oh, hey."

"He likes people. You should visit more often." She ran her hand on the soft fuzz of Darguni's head. "Jordan." 

"oren?"

"Close enough, my little love." 

Jordan played with him. "He really is adorable." He sighed. 

"Why are you here Jordan?"

"Huh?" 

She shook her head. "Don't play dumb. You and I both know you've never done this."

He frowned. "You told me to figure out what I wanted. I decided that, for the immediate need, I just wanted to be beside you. I thought, perhaps..." He nodded. "Perhaps if I spent more time in your company, then I would figure out if it's something worth doing." 

"I can't fault your logic." She shrugged and returned to her work. 

He resisted the urge to play with her hair. Instead he focused on entertaining the baby. "Renwa and Zelinnia, it just seems so illogical, and yet you look at them and they're perfect for each other." 

"Mm, I agree." 

"I guess nothing seems odd in your world view." 

She laughed. "People who avoid their hearts are an oddity to me."

He winced. "I guess I deserve that."

"You're not the only person that could refer to, dear." 

"Yeah." He pushed a lock of her hair back behind her ear. Realizing what he'd done, he dropped his hand and stared at the child. 

"It has always been my belief that a person should seek out that which they desire most. Even if the object of their affections turns out to be less than expected, at least they took the time to find it. This belief is why I never fit in among my own kind. I was not willing to conform to the standards set out before me. I made who I am work for me in the end, and that's the important part." 

"Are you trying to tell me we wouldn't be compatible?"

She shook her head. "Jordan, the things I know about you, could probably fill a teacup. I can't tell you if we'd be compatible or not. What I am saying, is that I think you should see this through, but don't be disappointed if you find something you dislike. I'm no one's fantasy, Jordan. Renwa can tell you that."

"I know you're not." He stared down at Grogek. "But I have convinced myself that... seeing this through, will be the answer I'm looking for."

"All I ask," Elunara put a hand over his. "Is that, no matter what happens, you will stay. Renwa would be crushed if you left, especially if he finds out it was over me."

He took her hand into his and kissed the back of it. "I promise."

"Dude..." Andrew frowned up the hill. "Is Captain Jordan putting the moves on Elunara?"

Joseph shook his head in disbelief. "It sure likes like it. Wonder if General Grogek noticed." 

Andrew shrugged. "No idea, man. This could get ugly."

The gesture did not go unnoticed by Grogek. Only Elunara would have recognized the makings of a smile on his face. The bangle remained on her arm, where it had been since it'd been given to her. He didn't need to see that subtle reminder that she belonged to him. Tulani held a special place in his heart, but Elunara was his soul mate. Regardless of how hers branched. 

Jordan had no idea why he was standing in the center of Elunara's house, staring at her things, but he was. He wandered around, looking at the amazing pictures on the wall. It didn't matter that most of them were naked men, they were remarkably well done and no detail over looked. He was fairly certain that each individual hair on their bodies was even placed correctly.

She had left a shirt hanging over the back of her chair. He picked it up and breathed deeply. No one smelled like Elunara. He ran his fingers along the back of her books. Tulani's desk was very neat and organized, even the little pins and needles lined up in a row. But Elunara's was messy. Some of the papers were left out and he pushed them aside, surprised to see her working on the casual portrait of him. In fact, it made him happy to see that there were quite a few. "I wish he'd smile more." She'd written in a corner. 

He looked in the baby's room and was delighted to see the portraits she'd chosen to hang, and of course, the pictures of silly little animals that children so often loved. It wasn't his intention to have any, but it wouldn't bother him to be in Darguni's life. He stepped back in to find a furious Elunara approaching the baby's door. She stopped and blinked at him. 

"Oh, Jordan. I thought someone had broken in."

"I'm sorry, you said I could read your books, and I was looking at the pictures you drew. I really like your sabre cat pictures."

"Yeah, they'll always have a special place in my heart." She laughed. "I left poor Yondre in Darnassus. I haven't seen her since."

"You were a hunter?"

She shook her head. "Mount."

"Oh." He walked around the room. "I'm not interrupting, am I? I wasn't sure and your sign wasn't out."

"No, I just came back from a consult." She began tucking papers away. 

He watched her as she tucked the papers away, organizing them in her way, putting things together, and changing arrangements. She emptied her board of used pages and tucked them neatly away. 

"Oh, I'm sorry, did you want a book?"

"I... I hadn't gotten that far yet."

She raised an eyebrow. "Is that so?" She sighed and pushed away the board. "Jordan, why are you here?" 

"I..."

"If you're not honest with me, this will never work." 

He scratched at the back of his head. "I guess I just wanted to understand you. Not in whatever is written in those things, but the now you." He shook his head. "It sounds stupid, because I will need to read those eventually, but that's not what I wanted... I kind of want to see how I would fit into your life, if that's where we go."

She crossed her arms and considered him. "Fair enough. What did you want to know?"

"I guess... what is your routine?"

She laughed. "Well, that's complicated." She tapped a finger to her cheek. "Well, Grogek usually wakes first and gets ready for work; then Tulani most of the time, because she's just so damned efficient. I'll get out of bed and watch them. A kiss good bye and Grogek hauls out his axe. Then Tulani and I discuss who'd taking Darguni while he's fed his breakfast. There's a place for him up at the tailor shop, or maybe I take him. A kiss good bye and she heads off to the tailor's. After that I either have a free day in which I work on my art, wherever I decide to take it, or I have an appointment, either here or at their place of choosing. Depending on my mood, I might have appointments all day or one or two. When the day is done, I'm usually home first, Tulani next, followed by Grogek. Sometimes, if she had a big order, Tulani might be later. Then, Either Tulani and I have our special sessions," She winked. "Or Tulani works on her sewing while Grogek and I have our special sessions. We usually collapse in the bed, and Tulani heads to hers." 

He listened with avid interest. "Wait, Tulani has her own bed?"

"When she first joined us, sleeping in the same bed as Grogek made her nightmares worse. It was just better for her to have her own bed."

"Tulani has nightmares?"

"Not so much anymore. She does from time to time when something is upsetting her." 

"Does... she ever... join you two?"

"Fairly often." Elunara shrugged. "She has absolutely no interest in men, but she will participate with me if she is feeling frisky with it."

"Huh." 

"No one but Grogek and I occupy the big bed. It's kind of sacred. Tulani is allowed on it, and has been known to crawl into it if she has a nightmare that didn't wake me up first. She usually returns to her own bed as soon as she can."

"I understand that." He murmured. He stared at the monster sized bed. Finally, he shook his head. "I wouldn't be comfortable in that one anyway."

She raised an eyebrow, but said nothing. 

"I'm not sure what I hoped to accomplish." He frowned. 

She laid a hand on his arm. "Well, you tried, and that's something." 

He brushed the back of his fingers on her cheek. "Sometimes, I lie in bed and think about you." He whispered. "It never occurred to me why, until you were taken from us." 

A knock on the door shattered the moment. Elunara opened the door. 

"You have to come; a messenger from the King himself has arrived with some boxes!" 

Elunara and Jordan looked at each other before following the man to the center of town. There a messenger wearing the royal crest was flanked by two large boxes. When he was satisfied that everyone was present, he held up a paper. 

"I am to read this message first." He cleared his throat. "Forgive me for this has taken longer than it should, time is warped between us. It has occurred to me that I may have been hasty in my actions previously. This is to correct an over sight. Signed, King Varian Wyrnn." The man put the paper away as everyone began murmuring to themselves. He pulled out another paper. "It is my royal decree that I promote General Johnathan Renwa to the Rank of Admiral, and all duties implied. It is also by Royal decree that based on previous records; I promote Captain Jordan Shryke to title of General. May you both use them in good health. I expect both of you, in the harshness of your environments; figure out your roles on your own. Enjoy the new armor that will reflect your rank and positions. P.S. To the now Admiral Renwa: Congratulations on your impending nuptials to the Blood Elf Zelinnia." The man handed both sheets of paper to Renwa. 

"I must be going now." He saluted and then followed the two guards. 

Elunara snickered. "Admiral Renwa. I never thought I'd see the day." She whacked him on the back. 

"Does this change anything?" Zelinnia peered over his shoulder. 

"Only in Stormwind." He murmured. 

"I'm a General?" Jordan squeaked.

"General Jordan does sound kind of weird." Elunara nodded. 

Grogek whacked Jordan on the back. "You earned it before I did." 

"Sugarbear, you're going to give the poor boy a heart attack." 

Grogek laughed. "If he can't take anything I dish out, he's not worthy." Grogek's words were loaded with meaning. 

Jordan flushed and straightened his back. 

Renwa pointed at a few of the men. "Get these crates to our quarters, as labeled."

"That stupid box is going to take up half our room." Zelinnia put her hands on her hips. 

"Good thing we break ground tomorrow."

Elunara grinned. "At the rate this town can get something done, it'll be finished by the next day."

Gerald leaned over. "Let's see if we can get it done by night." 

True to their word, the entire town seemed to show up first thing in the morning. Crews were divided up, tasks were given, and the General's office and apartment were taken down, the wood reclaimed and the Admiral's new house and side office were put in. Elunara suggested taller ceilings in the office, so Grogek could actually stand. A hasty extra office was attached for General Jordan to have his own place near the Admiral. 

"Like Wyrnn said, we'll figure out our own dynamic." Renwa nodded. 

The building was up in record time, though a few people wondered at the strange extra doodads Elunara had added to the design. 

Zelinnia scooted over to Elunara. "What's with these two straps hanging from the door frame?" She whispered.

Elunara grinned. "Hand holds."

The other woman blushed. "Oh."

A man with a large spread of paper came over to Elunara. "Listen, I know this is a custom job, but I just don't get why this banister needs to be reinforced in such a way." 

She pulled the blueprint paper out of his hand and frowned at it. "You're right, it needs more." She tugged out a pencil and added a couple of extra lines.

"Well, that's just way too much." He frowned. 

"It has to support the weight of two, and I calculated the weight of armor in there, just in case..." She pointed.

"Whatever for?"

Elunara rolled her eyes. "Save me from the innocent."

"I am not... OH! Ohhhhh...." He stared at the banister. "I see."

She put her hands on her hips. "You better see. I'm going to need WAY more reinforcement on my house. Grogek is massive." 

The man flushed and scooted away. 

Zelinnia just stared at Elunara. "My soul, did you design the entire house to be fucked in?"

She shrugged. "Why wouldn't I?"

Zelinnia put a hand to her head. "You're right; I forgot who I was talking to."

Gerald won his bet about getting the house up by night fall. "Just in time for the happy couple to christen it." He grinned. Fifty gold he'd made on that bet. 

Pantries had been installed, bathrooms designed, and of course, plenty of doors. 

Renwa ran a hand on the front door. "I know that most of the parts had been manufactured and set aside for this day, but that was the most efficient thing I have ever seen." 

"Elunara has rigged the entire place." Zelinnia shook her head. 

"Is that so?" He grinned. 

"Um, I should tell you..." Zelinnia blushed. "I had them put your apartment door right here. Since... you know." She giggled nervously. "And I got some weird looks, but your old office door is now our bedroom door."

"Why Zelinnia, I didn't know you were so sentimental." He grinned

"I kind of like that door." She mumbled. "Anyway, Elunara bartered us a bigger bed, she said what we had just wasn't adequate."

"I think we should give it a test run." He had a twinkle in his eye that made her blush deeper.

"If you say so, Admiral." 

Elunara was sitting under the tree, board in her lap. Grogek slipped in behind her, wrapping him arms around her waist and kissing her neck. 

"Where is Darguni?"

"Tulani took him to the shop today. My appointment cancelled. Flu bug."

"Nasty." He contented himself with licking her neck. 

She leaned back against him comfortably. "We haven't done this in awhile."

"Mm, no we haven't." He slipped a hand up her shirt. "I saw you up here all by yourself, and I just had to come... enjoy your company." His other hand slipped down her pants. "Mine." He whispered. 

"Always." She breathed, as she pressed back against him. 

He ran his fingers through her soft folds, his teeth scraping down her shoulder. He slipped one finger inside, and pressed her hips against himself. 

She slipped her hand back behind her and rubbed against his erection. "I almost regret that we agreed to keep our outdoor activities to the south orchard at night." 

He grinned. "Perhaps tonight we make a visit." 

"I like that plan."

He began to move his finger in and out of her, teasing her nipple with his other hand. "Come for me, my little she wolf." 

Jordan sighed. He leaned against the post, watching the pair on the hill. They had never been known for subtlety in their relationship. She was beautiful, with that look on her face. He wished he had caused it. 

Grogek came back down the hill, clearly satisfied with himself. He leaned to Gerald, before walking away. Gerald's spine straightened and he took off. Jordan frowned. The south orchard would be busy tonight. 

He didn't know what he was doing here. This was a game for immature children. Gerald already had his betting ring going on the other hill. Jordan wished he's listened to his head and not his groin on this one. Even as Grogek buried himself into Elunara, Jordan wanted to trade places. His mind wandered back to that day, when Renwa practically ordered him to Elunara's home. Enjoying her had made him feel foul and guilty. When Grogek entered the room, he knew it was all over. 

Jordan watched the pair with fascination. Their stamina was legendary, but he'd never actually seen one of these sessions before. The accidental glimpse he had gotten that time before was nothing compared to the full assault. Both he and Renwa knew full well what happened in the south orchard, but like everything else Elunara brought in, it was just accepted. He knew his heart was hers and every reason for it. He had tried, somewhat desperately, to find attraction in the other women of town. There were even a few who had tried to seduce him, but he recognized Elunara's methods, and they became a poor and undesirable substitute. 

"Fuck her." Grogek had said. He had wanted it so badly, that... even though she was spread across her lover, he couldn't keep his hands off her. It had been humiliation that kept him away from her. He tore his eyes away from the scene down below and headed back into town. He found himself at Elunara's door, and knocked. 

Tulani opened the door and eyed him with surprise. "Elunara is..."

"At the south orchard, I know." He shook his head. "Can I look through her books?"

Tulani moved back to let him in. "She told me you might ask for them." 

He started running his hands on the bindings. 

"Are you looking for a certain one?"

"Ah... yeah, before you arrived."

She ran her hands down and tugged a book barely out. "That's where I start."

"Thank you." He started with the book before it and kept looking until he found what he wanted. He held up the book. "I'm going to borrow this."

"Alright, I'll..." He closed the door. "Let her know." Tulani finished, frowning at the door. 

He ran back to his room as if he'd stolen the thing. Locking himself in, he was glad he'd taken his armor off earlier. He sat in his bed and opened the book. He was amazed at the level of detail she had. She described the encounter completely, but the drawings... He ran his hand over the page. Curious, he started from the beginning of the book and didn't stop until he'd read the whole thing. 

She had felt guilty at his discomfort. While he was feeling guilty for taking advantage of her vulnerable state, she had felt bad that she'd made him feel awkward. He read the book over and over. He didn't care about the men she had pleasured in her search for entertainment. Now that he had read this one, he wondered about all of them. He sat it down on his bed stand and stared at the ceiling. 

Thinking about that day, as he often had since; he slipped his hand over his already hardening dick. He envied Grogek so damned much. He was able to slip into those soft wet folds, caress those beautiful nipples. Jordan fantasized about the taste and feel of them. That one day was forever etched in his mind. Gods, how could a woman who spends so much time spread out like she was, still be so damned tight?

The heat rose within him. Tonight was almost awful, watching her display herself for all to see. His free hand found the book and he opened it again, flipping to another night like this. She loved it, every moment of it; wanted as many people to see as she could get. But why? He wondered. What about being a spectacle made her so hot and bothered? He had to get his hands on the rest.

He had to get his hands on Elunara. It was driving him crazy, laying here, wishing his hand was her sliding down, his hands gripping that beautiful ass. Gods, Grogek could watch for all he cared. The whole goddamned town could watch. 

He wiped his hand on his shirt and sighed. Dropping the book back on his nightstand, he felt he should be ashamed of himself. He was lusting after someone else's wife, even if that wife WAS Elunara. She'd just get a kick out of it. His mood soured, thinking of her laughing at him. Except Elunara just wasn't that mean, and he kind of deserved to be laughed at. Staring at the book, he considered. 

He'd never be happy just being played with, like one of her appointments, but he didn't want to take her away from Grogek either. No matter how Tulani played into the whole thing, she wasn't even on the edge of his mind. He would always respect Tulani, and anything having to do with Elunara involved Tulani. How could he puzzle himself into their lives? And was Elunara even willing to let him?




For the Whored Ch. 055



Jordan ran a hand over his softened dick. He'd never be able to compete with Grogek on raw power, but maybe he had something to offer she didn't have. Try as he might to work that one out, he couldn't find it. He blew out his light. He'd figure that one out another time.



For the Whored Ch. 056



Elunara narrowed her eyes as she took the book from Jordan. "Next time, wipe it off." 

"I'm sorry, I was afraid of damaging the cover." He blushed. 

She shook her head and let him in. "Well, if you're going to borrow my books like that, I'll just have to show you have to clean them." She pointed a finger at him. "When the mess happens, NOT after it has time to get sticky." 

His embarrassment deepened. "Sorry." He mumbled.

She shrugged. "You're not the first; which is why I had to develop a method." 

"I've decided to read more." He scratched the back of his head. "I don't know if I'll ever have the time to get to all of them." 

She shrugged. "If you just want fap material, I could assemble you some pages a little more suited to your taste." She flipped open the book. Her eyebrow shot up. "I see why you started here." 

He fidgeted his feet. "I want to learn how I could fit in." He bit his lip. "If you'd let me, anyway."

Her eyebrows rose. "You're really set on this." She said quietly.

"I'm sorry; I'll stop if you want me to." 

"I just have to wonder why." 

He relaxed some. "I've spent years trying to understand my feelings towards you. In the past couple, it's gotten more muddied. In the last year, I've watched you with some fascination. You eat at me. At first it made me angry, like you had this huge joke over my head. Then I realized I don't even blip on your radar. You weren't actively trying to drive me crazy, you just weren't aware of it. Grogek wasn't even holding you over my head, I just wasn't there either. Both of these illusions gone, I just watched." He reached out and played with her hair. "I kept thinking that it was just a stupid phase. I would get over it. Admittedly, every time I came to the point that I was going to bed one of the town's other women, I would pull back. Why be so cruel to her, when she'd never be enough?" 

He shook his head and dropped his hand. "Then I was angry at myself, because this stupidity was bordering on obsession. I've tried and I've tried to find some other alternative. I've almost left several times. Then you said what you did to me the other day, and it seemed to all fall in place. I've decided to take your advice. Because in the end, I would rather try and be disappointed, than sit and wonder what COULD have happened."

Elunara laughed. "Good man." 

He brushed the back of his fingers against her cheek. "What I've got so far, is that I don't want to take you from Grogek. In fact, I don't want to change your family dynamic all that much. What I do want is your genuine affection. Not some fantasy you play out for me. I have also decided, that I don't care who in town knows that."

"You play a dangerous game there. The town could take this whole mess completely wrong."

"I don't give a damn. In fact, why do you?" He frowned.

She laughed. "Sweetheart, I haven't given a damn about what other people think of me for the past thirty years, and I'm not about to start now. I just don't want your reputation ruined for me." 

He snorted. "Right now, my reputation is a coward. You're not the first to think I'm in love with Renwa. Women who think I gave up at the bed because I was gay. I was just surprised you thought it. I've had Jerry AND Louis come to me at different times and suggests recruits who thought I was attractive." He ran his hands through his hair. "I thought that YOU of all people would understand I was straight." 

She gave a small laugh. "Oh Jordan, you've made yourself into quite the mess." 

"All I've really wanted to do; was seduce you." He pressed his lips to hers and slid his hands across her hips. 

She sat the book down on the desk and moved her hands to his shoulders. 

He pulled her body to his, wrapping his arms around her, as one hand went down to her ass, the other went up her back. He groaned at the feeling of her skin in his hands. Her fingers ran through his hair as his found hers. The devoured each other. With his other hand he pressed her pants down, sliding his middle finger down the crack of her ass. 

"Please." Was a jagged whisper from him. 

"Take me." She whispered back to his mouth.

He yanked up her shirt, pulling it free from her body. Wrapping his arms around her, he buried himself in her breasts. He slid his tongue up between them and was pleased by her groan. His hands went down and freed her of her pants. She stepped forward, wrapping her body with his. His mouth met hers as his hands roamed around, enjoying the feeling of her flesh in his hands. It was the fulfillment of a dream, made all the sweeter by a lack of disappointment. No, this was exactly what he wanted. With haste, he pulled off his own shirt, eager to feel the skin of her breasts pressed against his hardened chest.

She pushed at him and pointed to a bed on the wall. "That one."

He nodded and returned his mouth to hers. Even wrapped up in her, he was able to walk them both back to the bed. He lay her down and quickly pulled out of his pants, climbing in on top of her. He pressed his mouth to hers and wrapped his body with her, but did not enter. Shifting his body, he enjoyed the feeling of her skin brushing up against his. She arched against him, encouraging him to enter, but he abstained for now, wanting to memorize the moment. 

When at last he decided to answer, even she had to be impressed by his discipline and control. He teased and tormented both of them with just the head, before sliding, inch by glorious inch into her. When he was at last deep enough, he groaned. "Oh, Baby." He whispered to her, the love in his heart pouring out of each word. She was amused by the affection, but it pulled at her heart. 

"Jordan." She murmured as she ran her hand up gently up his neck. 

"Please." He whimpered. "Baby, don't..."

"I'm not going to push you away." She whispered. She pulled his head down to hers and pressed her lips to his. "I think I'm ok with this." She said at last. 

The tension seemed to go out of his body, as he whispered, "Oh, Thank the Gods." He almost wept with relief. After a moment, he began to move his hips, mouth anchored to hers. When she arched against him, dragging her nails across his back, he nearly exploded inside. 

He kissed her face all over and buried his face in her shoulder. "I won't let you down." He whispered. 

She laughed and ran her fingers through his hair. "Jordan, you are a mystery."

"Even to myself." He took her free hand and kissed the knuckles.

By time they were dressed and he was set to walk out, he was bouncing on his toes. She had to sigh. "Try to keep reasonable expectations."

He kissed her cheek. "You're a married woman who already has a lover; I just want to join them." He grinned. 

"As long as we stay on that page." 

He nodded. "I'll bring your book back, clean this time."

"Damned well better, or I make you LICK the thing." 

He laughed and opened the door. Grogek blinked at him. Jordan bowed. "You will always come first." He then smiled and waved, before he ran off.

"Was that Jordan?" Grogek shook his head. "I didn't recognize him with the goofy look on his face. What happened?"

She sighed and leaned against the door. "I do believe I just agreed to be wooed." 

"Are you certain you want to encourage him?"

She shrugged. "I told him to be aware that this might end miserably. He used my own words against me." She grinned. "He'd rather try and fail, than wonder what might have happened."

Grogek nodded and dropped his axe against the wall. "Good man."

Jordan met with Renwa in Renwa's new office. Zelinnia was at her desk, flipping through papers with a rapidity that made his head hurt. Renwa was meeting with some of the other controlling interests. While they debated, Jordan sat to the side, whistling to himself as he perused some of the paperwork Zelinnia had given him. 

"Jordan?" 

The delegates had left and he looked up at his closest and oldest friend with a smile. "Yep?" 

"Are you whistling?" 

"Oh, I'm sorry, was it disruptive?"

"A little, since when do you whistle?"

"Oh, sorry, I'm just in a good mood I guess."

"You." Renwa said flatly. "In a good mood?" Renwa rubbed his temple. 

"Oh, sorry." Jordan blushed. "I guess since I'm dating Elunara now..." He shrugged.

Even Zelinnia broke her paperwork trance to stare.

Renwa looked over to the Blood Elf. "Are we still getting married?"

"Yes," She said slowly. "Why?"

"Oh, good, I thought the world went mad. What with Jordan in a good mood and... DATING Elunara?" He raised an eyebrow.

"Well, she only agreed to let me last night." He flushed. 

Renwa walked to Zelinnia and wrapped his arms around her. "Hold me. As long as I got you, the world can be as crazy as it wants."

Zelinnia laughed. "Oh, you know Elunara and her strange whims."

"I thought I did." Renwa pinched his eyes shut.

"I agree, after knowing Jordan only as being dour and grumpy, this new side of him is just weird."

"Bah, the both of you can stuff it." Jordan slapped the folder closed. 

Renwa breathed a sigh of relief. "Oh, he's still in there."

Jordan flipped them both off as he stalked out of the office. After dumping his stack in his shiny new office, he headed down to the training yard, humming as he went. A few whispers attributed his good mood to being promoted. 

Grogek was standing at the head, arms crossed, axe on his back. He shook his head at the scene in front of him. Jordan stood beside him. "Busy?"

"Just observing. Have to figure out where the weak points are."

"Understood." He nodded. "I wanted to speak to you."

"Oh?" 

"I don't seek to replace you. I don't even want to compete with you."

Grogek snorted. "You really couldn't."

"Yeah. Anyway, after... that day, I felt embarrassed and humiliated. For the longest time I thought... I can't compete with that. And I envied you. Time stomped on, and Elunara has proven the kind of person she is, over and over again. Many times I tried to convince myself to leave. I can't have her; I don't deserve to have her." He sighed. "But I learned something... that Elunara never stops. When she picked up this strange business idea of hers, I fully expected..."

"That I'd get jealous, maybe even put a stop to it."

"Yeah. But nobody tells Elunara what she can and can't do. Instead, you two make it work. It's a game to her. One that no one can keep up with. You have her a thousand ways, every chance you get, and still she has the energy to have another lover, still she has the energy to burn on random men, and women. What kind of person can DO that?" He laughed. "But, there she goes again. Doesn't she get tired?"

Grogek laughed. "I've wondered that myself." He put a hand on Jordan's shoulder. "Would you like to know how she wins so often in the ring?"

"At first I thought you let her, but I've never been sure."

"Sheer fucking stamina. Even when she's losing, she has an enormous well of energy that I have never been able to outlast." Grogek re-crossed his arms. "If someone could harness that energy, they'd make an incredibly destructive weapon."

"Huh. You see, the thing is, I've always admired that woman, even if I didn't agree with her methods. She's reliable, she's vicious, and she always has room in her heart for another. I'm glad you unlocked that part of her that no one could touch, because she's become an inspiration to us all."

"I'm glad you finally see her for who she is, not what she made herself."

He shook his head. "She never let any of us try. We just weren't worthy."

"Hmm. I never thought of it that way." He held up his hands. "Roger, if you "feign left, attack right" one more goddamned time, I will come over there and lop off one of your arms. Variety, you fucking moron!" Grogek re-crossed his arms. "These new recruits suck."

"You wouldn't do that would you?"

Grogek shrugged. "Once tied a man's hand to his penis so he'd stop relying on it."

Jordan winced and shook his head. "That Tim guy has raw power, but no finesse." 

"Been standing here thinking about that, but you have a lot on your mind and I'll hear it out." 

"Thank you." He sighed. "I don't want to replace you, or Tulani, I just want... Well, I'm not entirely certain, but I just want to tap into that endless well of energy, and have some for my own. Elunara would never be satisfied with one lover, it's not in her makeup. She loves you with her whole being, and it's brilliant to look at. There's this part of me that wants her to turn that brilliance my way, if just for a little bit. I don't want to take that brilliance from you; I just want to share it. Perhaps in the same way that Tulani does."

Grogek seemed to consider this for awhile. He put a hand on Jordan's shoulder "Jordan, you're a good man. We've both said it before. Elunara once made a joke to Renwa about being a "back up husband" and he was appalled by the notion. However, I think you might consider the idea. Should anything happen to me, I am fine with this arrangement. Keep in mind, Elunara is always the final call in that decision." Grogek walked off. "TIM! GET YOUR ASS OVER HERE!" 

Jordan stared at Grogek in complete and utter shock. 

Elunara found him like that. She put a hand on his shoulder and he almost jumped out of his skin. She laughed. "Are you alright?"

He took her hand on his shoulder and kissed the top of it. "I'm better than alright." He grinned.

"What's Grogek pissed about? I heard him down the way."

"Tim's all power, no finesse. He's currently reaming him, but Tim's putting up quite the argument."

Tim snorted. "You can't even control your wife in public."

Grogek blinked and looked behind him. Jordan and Elunara were speaking casually, but Jordan had Elunara's hand. She laughed, patted him on the cheek and then disentangled herself from Jordan's grasp. She sauntered over and leaned her elbow on Grogek's shoulder. 

"This little pipsqueak harshing your craw?"

Grogek laughed. "You say the most confusing things, my love." 

"Drop your axe." She grinned. 

Knowing her game, he grinned and held up his axe. He dropped it, head down on to the ground.

"Alright, honeybuns. You've seen Grogek swing this bad boy before?" She asked. 

"Not in any REAL fashion." Tim snorted. 

Elunara raised an eyebrow. 

"We haven't sparred since he got here."

"Ah." She gestured to it. "Lift it, big boy."

He snarled at her and grabbed the axe with both hands. He tried to yank it and got nowhere. With a grunt, he readjusted and hefted it a few inches off the ground. He dropped it with a huff.

Elunara and Grogek grinned at each other. Elunara shrugged. "I'm impressed, you haven't been here long, but you budged it." She turned to Grogek. "Do we have any gold stars we can give him?" 

"I'd like to see YOU do any better, Night Elf." He sneered. 

With a shrug, she picked up the axe without effort and slung it over her shoulder. "I got a whole dance routine, you wanna see it?"

He stepped backwards. "That's a trick!"

She shrugged and dropped it back down. "Then figure out my trick." 

Tim tried over and over to lift the axe, but only got it so far. "You use magic!" 

She snorted. "Oh sugar, the only magic I use, you'll never get to see."

"I don't call being a whore, magic." 

"Hey sugar, it's THE whore, to you. And if you doubt my abilities, grab you a weapon." She went to the rack and snagged her staff. 

"With a STAFF?" He laughed. He yanked a sword off the rack. After testing the weight, he grabbed a match to it. 

"Ooh, a pair of two-handers, a fury warrior, I haven't faced one of those in awhile. Fucked one last week, but actual combat? Why it's been years." She giggled. 

"Shut up, bitch." 

"OH! Bitch!" She pointed at Tim and looked over to Grogek. "Did you work with him all week to teach him that one?" 

Grogek snorted and shook his head as he walked away. By time he wandered over to Jordan, the entire training yard was circled by people. 

Tim lunged at Elunara. She deftly moved out of the way and whacked him on the ass. "How rude, starting before the go."

He turned and growled, lunging for her again. She sidestepped him and sighed. 

"Seriously, are you even trying?"

"Stand still." He growled.

She planted her staff. "Ok, you are a complete and utter moron if you think that ANYONE is going to fucking STAND STILL in a combat situation. If you cannot handle a moving target, get your ass back to Stormwind and work on the goddamned target dummies." She held up her staff and lunged at him. She jabbed him in the belly, and brought the staff up under his chin. "That was your warning shot. Fucking ATTACK ME or go home you limp dick twit!"

He swung his swords at her, lunging and catching only air. "Cock sucking little SLUT!" 

She dodged and parried him effortlessly. "Sugar lips, if there's any dick I haven't sucked in this town, it would be yours. Try again." 

With a growl he swung wildly. 

Elunara looked to Grogek, dodging the next few swings without looking. "Sugarbear, PLEASE tell me you haven't gone soft in your methods."

"That fucking asshole thinks he doesn't have to listen to me."

"I wouldn't insult fucking by using it on him."

"Elunara." Renwa stood to the side, hands behind his back. "Could you finish the twit off, there are other men who are willing to train."

"Aw, but I got all worked up for nothing." She whacked him on the ass again. "I was promised a challenge." She whined. 

"My vicious little she-wolf, I'll give you your challenge." 

She held her hands together, stick in hand and dodged a slice. "Yeay!" She flung the staff out and caught Tim in the gut. He stumbled forward, and she hit him in the ankle and caused him to slam into the ground. She cracked him on the back of the head, and as he groaned, she grabbed him by the back of his uniform and dragged him and dropped him at Grogek's feet. 

Grogek bent down. "I should thank you; the sex tonight will be spectacular." Grogek dropped the axe on Tim's back. Tim called out and Grogek grinned. "You might want to watch closely."

Jordan reached down and hauled Tim up on his ass. "No matter how hard you train, you'll always get your ass kicked by that woman."

"Like you?" Tim snorted. 

"I'm not that pathetic." Jordan snorted. He watched in fascinated awe as Grogek and Elunara beat the living shit out of each other. He considered their aggressive nature towards each other. They did it with utmost respect and love for each other. He was aware of the night they went for hours on end, until both limped away in pain. Thinking of Tulani, he imagined the soft nature of the sweet Draenei. Theirs was a love that was beautiful and tender. Perhaps, his role lay somewhere in the middle. 

Tim sat beside him, nursing his bruises with hate in his face. Jordan decided it would be best to put Tim on watch, just in case. He was a brute, which would serve him well in the wilds of Draenor, but his attitude was complete shit. 

Grogek's axe landed at Jordan's feet. It took a bit of effort, but he hefted the axe and threw it. Grogek caught it with ease and used the side to block Elunara's foot. 

"What's the secret?" Tim grunted.

"What secret?" Jordan blinked in confusion.

"The secret to lifting that axe."

"Training. Letting Grogek beat the shit out of you until he builds your body into a well oiled machine. I may have been Captain when Grogek showed up, but every damned one of us spent time under him. Even Renwa has benefitted from his training. Grogek was born on this world, was the greatest commander under Grommash Hellscream, and trained most of the Iron Horde. When you face them, you face his work." Jordan tracked Elunara's movements. "He fell in love with that crazy bitch, and now he trains our own. His soldiers have made the deciding turn for the past couple of years." He laughed. "She has always been able to hold her own in these bouts."




For the Whored Ch. 056



"The fuck?"

"I once asked her how she was so obscenely strong... she told me that years of jacking off men built her upper body strength. I once asked Grogek how she keeps winning, his exact words, "Sheer fucking stamina". That's what he said to me. He has never found the end to her well." 

"Good lord woman!" Grogek yelled. "Are you on a mission?" 

"Well, now I'm just really horny, and Renwa warned me about LAST time." She held her dripping arm. "How about we call it a draw and go annoy Ina for a bathtub?"

Grogek dropped his axe to the ground. "I'm game." He turned and looked around. "THE REST OF YOU LOUTS GET BACK TO WORK!" He growled. He and Elunara hobbled out of the ring. Grogek put a hand on Jordan's shoulder. "Handle things for me, will ya."

"Can do." Though the exchange was casual, Jordan knew the implications of what had just happened. 

"Does he know you're fucking his wife?" Time snorted.

"The threesomes are something to behold." Jordan snorted back, knowing full well that would have been Elunara's exact comment.



For the Whored Ch. 057



"What is WRONG with this goddamned town?" Tim growled into his beer. 

"You got off easy." Gerald snorted. "The last person to genuinely piss of Elunara was the shit cleaner." 

"The guy covered in scars?" Roger sipped his beer.

Gerald nodded. "Elunara put every last scar on his body. You should see the hamburger she made out of his balls."

"Dear Gods, how did you see that?"

"She did the whole mess in the center of town. Covered him head to toe in scars, and then dumped salt water on him to wake him up so his sentence could be given."

"That's what I don't get," Tim snorted. "She does whatever the fuck she wants."

"If you knew anything about her, you wouldn't go down this path." Gerald warned.

"Don't you start, you git. I know you've been on her service." 

"I was her spotter for years, before they decommissioned her here. I know how many throats she's slit." He shrugged. "Being here has made her a little crazier than she used to be. Then, she did everything with cold calculation. Now," He shrugged. "No one pisses of Elunara and stays intact." 

"Why would being here make her crazy?" Steve asked. 

Gerald rubbed the back of his neck. "She had a purpose in the SI:7. They kept her busy. Once she was done with a job, she had a new one. If possible, they overlapped the missions. Her mission here was simple; get to Grommash, and undermine his entire operation. When shit hit the fan, and Grommash broke every bone in her body, it was Grogek that saved her. When she needed to abandon the mission, the first she ever had to... it was Grogek who got her out. She broke her own oath and became involved with a target. Yeah, sure, they're a family... but Elunara hasn't been sent out on any useful missions. Just to have something to do, she helped Thrall secure his own Iron Horde trainer... but something went wrong, and the guy became obsessed with her. He kidnapped her. She now wears his teeth on her arm."

"Is that what that thing is?" Roger bit his lip. 

Gerald nodded. "Aside from that? Elunara hasn't been allowed out of town. It makes her crazy. She challenges Grogek to these duels just to keep sharp. She prowls around, looking for anything to do. She started that sex thing of hers just to stave off the boredom." Gerald shook his head. "Even Renwa is completely afraid of her. He lets her do what she wants, because if she got out of control, no one could do a damned thing about it."

"That's all fucking bullshit." Tim snorted.

Gerald gave a shaky shrug. "If you get on her good side, she's sweet and polite. You get on her bad side..." He shuddered. "Gods, when she caught me cheating a little side bet..." He scrubbed his hand on his face. "She sticks her hand in my pants... has her fingers wrapped around my balls before I knew what was happening... and she twisted." He swallowed hard. It wasn't hard to remember that mess, or fake the chills it gave him. "I thought she was going to rip them clean off. I haven't even tried to cheat a bet since. I don't know where she's hiding, or who will tell her I did it." 

"She's fucking crazy." Tim held a look of disgust. "Why won't someone do something about her?"

Gerald snorted. "Everyone prefers to get on her good side. Renwa was in love with her for years. Jordan..." Gerald shook his head, the amazement was not faked. "Jordan is in love with her too now."

"Wait," Tim pointed. "Now?"

"Oh, it was no mistake; he couldn't stand the sight of her. Grogek and Elunara at the same time? He'd just freaking leave. Renwa reprimanded him a time or two for disobedience, because he refused to associate with her. I was there one day when Renwa called Grogek and Elunara to his office, and Jordan just stands up and says "please give me any report for this conversation" and just leaves. Slammed the door behind him. Elunara watched him leave, grinned and says "I guess he's still pissed", and then Renwa points at her and says "fix your differences or I will"."

"Damn." Whispered Steve. 

"How long ago was this?" Tim frowned. 

"This incident was months ago. Seems a couple of days ago, Jordan just walks in to Renwa's office and says "I'm in love with Elunara, isn't that amazing?" I thought Renwa was going to hit the floor."

"What did she do to him?" Roger's eyes were huge.

"No one knows. Not even Renwa."

Tim took another slug of his beer. "Let me get this straight, anyone messes with the Bitch, and they either fall in love with her, or meet a miserable fate."

"That's the best summary I've heard." Gerald drank. 

"This town is fucked up." Tim snorted. 

"It's crazy around here, I tell ya. The best thing you can do; is train well enough for Grogek to sign you out, and then leave. Or, ignore Grogek and go back to Stormwind." Gerald shrugged.

"How do we get on her good side?" Steve bit his lip. 

"Volunteer for her... project. Keep her happy, and life is pretty good around here." 

Jordan whistled as he walked along, and nodded to the people who smiled at him. He knocked on Elunara's door. She opened and stared at the bundle in his hand. 

"For you." He smiled; trying to not let the nerves he felt, seep out. 

She laughed and took the bundle of flowers. "Aw, that was sweet of you. No one's brought me flowers in..." She stopped and blinked down. "The last person to give me flowers was Grogek when I was pregnant." She took them with a little "huh", and turned. "I think Tulani has a vase around here somewhere. Come in, sweetie."

He let go of the breath he was holding and stepped inside. She laid the flowers on her desk and dug through a couple of cabinets. 

"Ah hah!" She pulled out a vase and tucked the flowers in, pouring in some water from the basin. She smiled at him. "I wouldn't have pegged you for a flowers guy, but I guess I don't know much about the happier side of you." She kissed his mouth. 

He wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her for a little longer. He smiled at her. "I'm still figuring it out myself." 

She laughed. "While I wouldn't mind the company, I have an appoint-" She frowned at the knock on the door. "I guess they're early." She kissed him again, and brushed past. She tugged open the door. "Mayby?" She blinked. 

The woman brushed on past Elunara and stopped short when she saw Jordan. "Him too?" Mayby jerked her thumb at Jordan. 

"Please tell me why you're here." Elunara sighed. The last thing she needed was Mayby's mouth. 

"I'm pregnant."

"That affects me how?" Elunara ran her hands through her hair. 

"Can I still have sex?" 

"Yes." Elunara crossed her arms. "You can have sex until you're a giant ball we roll down the street. And then? Sex can actually cause contractions, allowing for the baby to be born on time, or in same case early." 

"How early?"

"Refer to the ball comment. Ask Ina, I don't know the specifics; I was completely immobilized throughout my entire pregnancy. Between me and her, we should give you good estimation around the whole mess." Elunara threw her hands in the air. "Mayby you give me a migraine."

"You could congratulate me."

Elunara sighed. "It's against my principles to congratulate people on something I didn't exactly enjoy myself."

"I take it you wouldn't do it again." Mayby snorted. 

Elunara's grin was razor sharp. "I made a point to destroy my reproductive system all on my own. There's nothing left to get pregnant with." 

Mayby turned sheet white. "You did that to your own body?"

"Ask Ina. She'll tell you I made a mess of myself." Elunara grabbed Mayby by the shoulder and shoved her towards the door. "Now you need to leave, because I try to give my customers their privacy."

Mayby pointed at Jordan. "Him?"

"Actually, I intend to kick him out shortly after you. My appointment should be here in less than ten minutes, and I'm going to kill the both of you, if you run them off." She slammed the door in Mayby's face.

Jordan blinked at her. "Is that true?"

"Cutting myself open?"

"I knew about that, I didn't know you intentionally broke... that."

She shrugged. "No, I did that after Lorros." She sighed. "No one but me, Ina, Grogek and Tulani know. I... can't remember if Renwa knows. But after Lorros, I chugged that stupid birth control drink like a dying person, and still, somehow I wound up pregnant again. We couldn't be sure if it might have been Lorros' or not. I couldn't have it... I'm a little shaky on the details, but I just started stabbing. I was like a person possessed and I ripped myself apart. It's easy enough to pretend that I did it when I cut Darguni free." 

"I..." he frowned. "I'm so sorry."

She made a sound of disgust. "Don't. Just Don't. I never wanted the first. A second just drove me to lunacy."

"I'm sorry you felt you had to hurt yourself." He whispered. He wrapped his arms around her. "I'm just so sorry." 

She smiled. "Don't worry about it, sugarsweet." She brushed his hair out of his face. "I'm fine now. Happier that I don't have to worry about that drink." She made a face. 

He laughed. "You're amazing. Never forget that." He kissed her nose and walked to the door. He was shocked to see Zelinnia standing there. "You're her next appointment?" He blinked.

Zelinnia turned red. "Oh, Gods no, I came to return her book." 

Elunara sighed. "Dear Lord, my appointment is going to run away screaming." She took the book from Zelinnia and shoved Jordan out the door. "You can walk each other back." 

She closed the door and sighed. A few minutes later, there was a knock at the door. She opened up and smiled. Turning the sign, she motioned him in. "Sorry about that, Steve, everyone thinks they can drop by whenever." 

Board in hand, Elunara made her way up the hill and stopped at the top. "Holy shit." She whispered. She turned around and put her hands to her mouth. "GROGEK!" He startled and looked back and she gestured wildly to him. 

People began to circle around the growing procession. Elunara followed along and found Tyrande standing at the center of town, talking to Renwa. "Mother!" She waved. 

"Ah, Elunara, there you are." Tyrande put her hands awkwardly on Elunara's shoulders. "It's been a little while."

"Though not as long as the time before." Elunara chided. 

Tyrande put her hand on Elunara's cheek. "Must you bring that up? I thought our letters have come along nicely." 

Elunara laughed. 

"Where is my grandchild?" 

Tim leaned to Gerald. "Tyrande Whisperwind is Elunara's mother?" 

Gerald nodded. "I thought everyone knew that."

Tulani stepped forward, holding Darguni on her hip. "Forgive me, he is heavy." She held him out to the massive Night Elf.

"Tulani? Is it?" 

"Yes ma'am." 

"Forgive me; I was rude to you the last we spoke."

"It's alright. There was a lot going on."

"You are always too sweet." Tyrande smiled down at the child. "My, you are huge."

"His growth is pretty rapid." 

"I have a surprise for you." Tyrande nodded to a sentinel. 

Reaching into a large crate he pulled out a bundle of fluff. It meowed. 

Elunara took the bundle of fur and smiled down at her. "Aw, she's precious." 

"She's from Yondre's last litter. We were going to bring her, but then she gave birth. The rest of the litter will be treated as usual." 

"Aw, it was so thoughtful of you to bring her. She'll make a fine companion for Darguni." She held up the small sabre cub to the baby, who patted the creature on the head. 

"Elune save me, is that a Blood Elf?" Tyrande stared.

Sitting the cub on the ground, Elunara reached out and grabbed Zelinnia before she could make good her escape.

"Ohhhh hi Tyrande Whisperwind, leader of the Night Elves, how are you doing, I'm fine, I love your dress, please don't kill me." Zelinnia managed to say in a single breath.

"Yeah, she's a total coward." Elunara pushed Zelinnia to Renwa. "You lost something."

Renwa laughed. "I knew right where I put her." He kissed Zelinnia on the cheek. 

Tyrande's eyebrows shot up. "So Elunara married an orc, and you're married to a Blood Elf?"

"Marrying. We're waiting for a nice fall day." 

"I hope it's soon, I'm going stir crazy." Zelinnia sighed. She slapped her own mouth before trying to hide behind Renwa.

Elunara giggled. "Zelinnia is bad about saying the first thing to come to mind, then being embarrassed about it."

"That must be quite entertaining."

"You have no idea." Elunara cackled.

"So, come, speak with me. Tell me how goes your little world."



For the Whored Ch. 058



"It all makes sense now!" 

"Come on, Tim. Leave off." Roger sighed. 

"Of course she can do any damned thing she damned well pleases; she's the daughter of one of the faction leaders." 

Gerald snorted. "Who disowned her thirty years ago over the death of Fandral's son?" 

"She ain't disowned now." Tim slammed his fist on the table. "I'm telling you, someone should take her down a peg."

Steve snorted. "Like you did? That worked out so well."

"You shut up, Steve. I should have never had you try to infiltrate her house. Now you're gone over to her." 

"She was perfectly decent, and asked me at every step. We never even touched." He had wanted to, gods her body was rocking, but he'd agreed. Maybe he'd take Elunara up on her offer of repeat visits.

"Well, it's not like Tim will ever get to find out. Any attempt to get in there will be denied." Gerald snorted.

Tim growled. "Too damned bad John had to sell out for his own skin. There's a man who knew what was what."

Gerald sighed. "That was his sister, remember?"

Tim considered. "Maybe I'll pay her a visit."

Gerald shrugged. "Nothing stopping anyone. Just don't wind up like shit cleaner Terrance."

Tyrande smiled to Renwa. "You have quite the little town here. It certainly has blossomed since I was here last."

"We like to attribute it to Elunara and Grogek, though Tulani has helped quite a bit in her own way." 

"Fascinating to know."

"I'm pleased you've chosen to stay for a few days at my home. Even though Zelinnia has been hiding behind corners again." He sighed. 

She laughed. "What is the matter with her?"

"She is easily embarrassed, among other issues." 

"You glow when you speak of her." 

He laughed. "You know, Elunara saved her. Elunara had been captured by a maniac with an obsession, and when he tried to kill Zelinnia, Elunara gave herself to him, and kept Zelinnia hidden. That's why she's even here." He said quietly.

Tyrande just stared. "She gave him her body?"

"According to Zelinnia, because Elunara won't really speak of it, Zelinnia was "given" to Elunara as a present. When Elunara tried to make excuses to free Zelinnia, he picked up his axe, ready to kill Zelinnia for not being a satisfactory companion. Elunara got between them, distracted the large orc, and had sex with him. Rather than make good her own escape, she continued to give herself to him, to keep Zelinnia out of his range of vision. Each time she was spotted, Elunara went in between. In Zelinnia's words... "I've never seen eyes so dead."." Renwa shook his head. "To hear Zelinnia speak of it, you get sick." 

Tyrande put a hand to her chest. "I had no idea she was capable of that." She said quietly. 

Renwa shook his head. "No one really does, until she does it."

Tyrande frowned. "Why is that man chained?" She pointed. "And those scars..." 

"That is Terrance. He... well, Elunara embarrassed him, and so, in revenge he tried to rape Tulani. Zelinnia saved her."

"Is that so?"

He laughed. "Zelinnia may act like a coward, but she really isn't. She attacked him and held him down until help could come. She can be a little viper when she's angry." With a shake of his head he sighed. "I have to be honest with you, and tell you that every single scar on his body is Elunara's doing. Her wrath is not one to be trifled with."

"Well, she IS my daughter." Tyrande smiled. They reached Elunara's door and Tyrande reached up.

Renwa put a hand on her wrist. "Forgive me, but the sign is up."

"Do not disturb." She laughed. "Even Grogek?"

Renwa flushed. "I'm not explaining the second one." He pointed up. 

"Elunara, Artistic Expert and Sexual Consultant." Tyrande blinked repeatedly. "She put out a SIGN?"

"She can't be a mission specialist anymore, so she made a business out of it. She must be in with an appointment. Ah, I guess you could say that, the first sign keeps out everyone else. The second sign is so that Grogek doesn't... ahh disturb them." 

The door opened and Elunara ushered out a man and a woman. "I'll be there in the afternoon, three days from now, to explain the rigging." 

The woman flushed. "Thank you." 

The man's eyes went wide at Renwa and Tyrande. "Ah, Tuffy..." 

"Oh my!" Tuffy put a fan in front of her face and took off running.

Elunara winced. "Just because everyone knows what I do, doesn't mean they don't get embarrassed being seen leaving." 

"Rigging?" Tyrande found herself asking.

"One of the many things I call "sexual aides". Come in." She backed away. "You can get a lot of fun out of straps, ropes, and handles. I've been working on a design for a new housing set up."

Renwa laughed. "She designed some of the strange things you've been eyeing in my house. Sadly, Zelinnia and I haven't gotten around to figuring them all out yet."

Elunara shrugged. "Just tell me when and I'll come over and show you." 

"You certainly have been busy. Where is the baby?"

"Tulani took him up to the tailor shop, I had some consults today." 

"Are we interrupting?"

Elunara shook her head. "My next one doesn't show up for about an hour." She tapped a finger on her board. "Gerald has got some of the new recruits heading over... to get on my good side."

Renwa snorted. "What about the other one?"

"Gerald says he's unstable, agrees with Jordan's assessment to keep an eye on him for now."

Renwa sighs. "I might just ship him back to Stormwind and save myself the headache. If he'd just harness that brute power."

"He's got a dick to prove." Elunara rolled her eyes. 

"What's this?"

"We got a new recruit, Tim. He's a big one, was the tough guy back in Stormwind. When he challenged Grogek, I basically humiliated him with no effort. He's been pissy about it since." Elunara laughed. "Though, Gerald says he's taken up with Kathleen."

"Oh, Gods." Renwa rolled his eyes. 

"Bought John's lies, hook line and sinker."

"Can I ship them both back to Stormwind?"

"That depends; do you still want Kathleen at your wedding?"

"I'll get back you on that."

"Well, maybe if Tim gets laid, he'll stop being such an asshole." Elunara snorted.

"That's your answer to every—"

There was a knock on the door. Elunara shrugged. When she opened the door, she laughed. "Hello Jordan."

Looking in, he blushed. "This a bad time?"

She threw her hands in the air. "I don't know any more." She moved and let him in. 

"Jordan." Renwa nodded.

"Sir." Jordan blushed and gave a half bow. "Tyrande."

"Why are you here, Jordan?" Elunara smiled. 

"I..." He trailed off and turned several shades. 

"You're adorable, Jordan." She kissed his cheek. 

He held up a small box. 

Taking it, she opened it and smiled. "What a pretty necklace." 

Renwa and Tyrande shared a look. 

He coughed. "I never see you wear any. So, when I saw it..." He stared at his feet. 

"It's very pretty." She kissed him again. "I just never think about these things." 

"You seem to not think about a lot of things." He mumbled.

She laughed. "What does that mean?"

He halfway pointed to the pair on the other side of the room.

"Sweetheart, the things I have done..." She shook her head. "I stopped caring about an audience years ago, else wise; the south orchard wouldn't be so damned fun." 

"Well, I..." He looked directly at her, and tried to block the rest of the room from his mind. "I'm glad you like the necklace." He brushed her hair back from her neck. "I'll see you..." He swallowed and dropped his hand. "I'll see you." He turned, straightened his back and marched out." 

Tyrande's mouth dropped open as Elunara ran her fingers along the chain. "WHAT was THAT?"

Elunara shook her head. "I haven't figured that man out yet. I do believe I'm being wooed." 

"But, you have a husband... AND a lover, and... whatever else it is you do here." Tyrande threw her hands up. 

"Fascinating isn't it?" She sighed. She placed the little box carefully on her desk. "I'll have to figure out what this thing means later." 

"You know, I've never seen Jordan pursue a woman before. It's a little strange." 

"You should see him smile, it breaks your mind." 

"I heard him whistling!"

"Well, shit." Elunara put a hand to her cheek. "What have I done to him?"

"I hope you don't plan on hurting that boy." Tyrande crossed her arms.

"Oh, relax, mother. I've already told him to not get his hopes up. Any damage will be what he does to himself." 

That night, Elunara was staring at the necklace when Grogek came in. He sat down and pulled off his shoes. "What is that?"

"Jordan gave it to me." 

"Did he now?" 

"It's only the third piece of jewelry I even own." She took off Renwa's ring on its necklace and sat it down beside the box. She put her hand over the bangle that never left her arm. 

Grogek shrugged. "We've already discussed the second husband thing. I think it's... cute." He grinned. He dropped a kiss on her head. "You pile up lovers like the laughing skulls pile up bones." 

"I used to think that I was incapable of feeling love. You disabused me of the notion." She kissed him. "Then Tulani snuck her way in. Now I have friends, and I even love Zelinnia a little. Don't tell her that, she might run off screaming."

He laughed. "I'm sure she already knows." 

She reached up and grabbed a fang. She ran her hand up it. "We're a weird pair." 

He wrapped his arms around her. "That we are. You're so small, yet feisty and mean, and dear Gods if I'm not terrified of you."

She laughed. "As you all should be." 

The door opened and Tulani came, Darguni asleep on her shoulder, trying to cling to her basket. Grogek reached over and plucked the sleeping child from her. He carried the child in to the other room. 

Tulani hefted her basket on to her desk and sighed. "I swear he jumped in size again." 

Elunara nodded. "We're going to have to set up baby sitters." 

"He's becoming quite difficult for me to handle on my own." She sighed. The box on Elunara's desk caught her attention. "That's pretty. Since when do you buy jewelry?" 

"Jordan gave it to me."

She stared. "Oh." 

"Even better, he was so intent on giving it to me; he gave it to me in front of Renwa and my mother."

Tulani's eyes went wide. "He's determined, isn't he?" She ran a finger over the necklace. "What are you going to do?"

"Haven't decided." 

"Can't believe this shit." Tim chugged his beer.

"What now?" Gerald leaned back against the wall, twirling his beer in his fingers. 

"Now people can confirm that Cap... err General Jordan is banging the bitch too." 

Gerald raised his eyebrows. "But, he hated her. I mean... I know what he said the other day, but that could be..." 

"Apparently not. The whole town is on the whisper about it. Several people saw him take her flowers, and the jewel crafter said he bought a necklace." Tim snorted. "He's gone off the bend."

"Woman has some pretty magic legs. Among other parts." Gerald snorted.

"Steve hasn't been back to this tavern in a few days." Roger grumbled. "Gets all flushy when anyone speaks of her." He shook his head. "It's sick, what she does." 

Tim snorted. "How come you aren't fluttering around her like a horny peacock?" Tim whacked Gerald's arm. 

"I guess you missed the conversation where she almost ripped my balls off." He grouched. "I haven't been back since."

"Right, right." He chugged. "Ball bustin' bitch."

Gerald snorted. "THAT should be her codename." 

"You can't make me go in that house." Roger shook his head. 

Tim clapped him on the shoulder. "Man, I need you to." 

"But why?" He whined. "I don't want to wind up like those mind controlled morons."

"Exactly!" Tim raised his glass. "You'll go in, knowing what she does. Come back with any information you can. She won't let ME in there. You're all I got." 

Roger took a deep breath and knocked on the door. The door opened and Elunara eyed him. "Is this a bad time?" He asked.

"Not really, can I help you?"

"Gerald said I should come volunteer for your project." 

She looked behind her, before looking back at him. She shrugged. "I can fit you in right now." She jerked her head to the side and moved out of the way.

The nerves raked through him as he stepped inside. 

By time he left, he felt a little shell shocked. Suddenly, he realized what the deal was. Quickly, he went to his bunker and buried his head under his pillow. 

"So?" Tim whacked Roger on the back. "What have you got?" 

Roger shook his head. 

Tim yanked the pillow up. "The hell, man?"

Roger turned his head, tears streamed down his face. "Dude, you have no idea..." 

"I'm TRYING to have an idea, that's why I keep sending you losers in there!" Tim growled.

"She... she's beautiful. So soft, and gentle. Like...like a breeze. First, she draws you, clothes on. You turn around as she works, and her fingers...they're so fast and accurate. Little by little, you take off your clothes, and she continues to work, never flinching. It's like watching a miracle. If you ask, she'll show you what she's done. It's... it's beautiful. How could she capture a person so? Then as you stand there, buck naked to the world, she works; those big eyes of hers flicking back and forth. Then she puts the board down, and puts those soft hands on your shoulders." He swallowed 

"She asks you... "Do you want to go on?" And no matter which one you choose, she sets up her board and runs her hands all over your body. She tells you what she's doing as she does it. She stops, adds to the board, and moves on; every mole, every scar, anything that your body might have, she finds it. She found markings in my hair I'd never seen. Those hands work so soft and fast, you're hard as a rock against your own will. She... she puts her face down there, and still those fingers..." He shuddered. "I have never seen my dick to such a detail up close, as to what she drew on that paper. Then... gods, she keeps on moving. I'm not sure there is a part of my body that those fingers did not explore." He ran his hands over his face. "I told her... I told her I only wanted the basics, and so... When she stopped... I didn't want her to stop." 

He grabbed his pillow back from Tim. "Gods, I was hard as a rock, and she just shrugs, snaps that board closed and went back to the huge ass bed. She offered me some ice water, to deal with my dick, or, she said, she could continue with the full treatment. She popped open her board and continued to draw, the magic gone. I was shivering as I pulled my clothes on, and she just continued to work on that board. It was a struggle, but I managed to escape." He put the pillow back over his head and buried his face in his bed.

"The fuck?" Tim snorted. 

Roger raised his head. "The lack of fuck is the problem." He flopped back down. 

"Describe the place." 

Roger sighed and sat up on his elbow. "It's a barracks building, there's this monstrosity of a bed, I assume it's designed for General Grogek and Elunara. There are... some other beds, I failed to count. A pair of desks, one was covered in shelves and shelves of books. There's a library there. There's a door on the back wall, don't know what was there. And on all the walls, were pictures. Endless pictures of naked men. Some of them are pictures of naked women. There's this amazing display of Tulani in a half dozen positions, looking like some kind of Draenei angel." He sighed. "I've never wanted a woman so much in my life. Now leave me be, while I try to restore some of my goddamned dignity." He flopped back down

With a growl, Tim looked around the corner. The bitch had taken her abomination up the hill. Grogek was in the training yard, and the blue bitch was off wherever she spent her time. He slipped into the building unnoticed. With a snort he looked around. Why three of them got this much space, he'd never know. He went to the desk with the books. He took a book out and flipped through it. He never learned to read elvish. No point in a sissy language. He flipped through and tossed the book over his shoulder in disgust. 

He flipped through all of the books and found only pages and pages of naked men. Many were acts of filthy purposes. He ripped a few pages out and dropped them to the ground. After he'd gone through the entire lot of him he kicked them around. He began to yank pages off the walls. He wandered to the door and pushed it open. He yelled in pain as something bit his leg. He kicked the cat in the face. While it was dazed he slammed the door. With a growl, he began to yank down and shred all of the pages on the walls. He came to the framed portrait and plucked it off the wall. Even he could appreciate the work, and the form of a woman's body. With a snarl, he smashed it over his knee and stuffed the ripped page into his pocket. 

Just out of sheer meanness, he peed on the pile of ripped pages and books. Something caught his eye and was wandered back to the shelves. Feeling around he popped the latch. Pulling out the books and pages, he frowned. This was what Kathleen wanted. Her mother's work, stolen by the Bitch. Tim stuffed it in his other pocket and slipped out of the building.



For the Whored Ch. 059



"Well, yes. I have almost every person in town. There are a few hold outs, but it doesn't hurt me much. They really have been useful in identifying bodies." Elunara shrugged as she reached her door. "It was originally started as a way to..." She frowned at the cracked door. Pushing it open, she held her nose. "What the hell?" She gasped in shock and dropped her arms.

"What happened here?" Tyrande wrinkled her face and tightened her grip on Darguni. "And what is that smell?"

Elunara dropped to her knees and picked up a sheet of paper. She spotted the droplets of blood leading to the back room. "Yoona!" Elunara scrambled up and opened the door. The little sabre cat whimpered and crawled over. "Oh sweetie, what did they do to you?" 

Yoona shook her head and stumbled, before meowing. She had blood on her teeth and claws.

"Looks like you did more to them."

"Hey, Elunara, can you..." Jerry stopped and stared. "What the hell happened here?" He ran his fingers through his hair. 

Elunara held the cub. "I don't know Jerry, I just came in. Looks like whoever did it got a leg full of teeth though." 

"I'll get everyone." He took off running before she could say more. 

With a sigh she looked around. "Well, I figured out the smell." She pointed. "Whoever did this had a final say." 

"This is just awful." Tyrande frowned. "Who could do this?"

Elunara raked a hand through her hair. "I got a few names in mind. Oh, Mrs. Finister." Elunara sighed. "Now is kind of a bad time."

"Jerry sent me over. Shall I help?" 

"Oh, no. Don't worry." 

"Can you watch Darguni?" Tyrande smiled.

"Always." Mrs. Finister took the large toddler from Tyrande. "Is his room a mess?" 

"Aside from a little blood on the floor, no." 

"Well, I guess leaving that beast in his room was a good call after all." Mrs. Finister picked her way around the mess and went into Darguni's room. She held open the door. "Yoona?" The cub scrambled down and followed. 

Tyrande stooped down and began to gather papers. 

"Oh, you don't have to do that, mother."

"I want to." Tyrande continued to pick up the mess. 

Soon they had a number of helpers sorting papers and books. She made a pile of the damp pages so that she could redo them. Jordan was also crawling on the floor with the rest of them. 

Grogek stuck his head in. "Is there anything I can do, love?"

"We've almost got it. It's going to take me days of work to get this all back in order."

"I'll send for Zelinnia." Jordan nodded. 

"Good idea. Sugarbear, can you start inspecting the troops for a clawed up leg or legs. Yoona's got blood." 

"Good cat." He nodded before leaving. 

Jordan stepped out and snagged a person. "Have Zelinnia sent down, might as well tell Renwa as well." He tucked back in and sorted several more sheets. He spotted the glitter and moved some papers. "Oh." He frowned. "Elunara." 

"Huh?" She frowned and gingerly picked up the smashed chain in his hand. "Aw, I didn't even get to wear it yet." She bit her lip and frowned. She wiped a tear off her cheek. "Damn it." She muttered. "There's no point in that." She whispered. 

He wrapped his arms around her. "Hey, it's OK. This is just a bad situation." 

"There's just no sense in it." She laid her head on his shoulder. "Why?" She felt the tears come, but she couldn't fight them any longer. "I worked... I work so hard on these. It'll take me months to fix all of it."

Tyrande quietly shooed the rest of the helpers out of the room and closed the door behind her. 

"It's just papers... but... it's my life's work. And I can't... I can't find Tulani's picture." She sobbed. "It's all here, except her. Why did he take her? Why did he break my necklace?" She curled up against him and sobbed. "How am I going to tell her?"

"I'm so sorry." He dislodged his shoulder plates and took off his gloves, wrapping his arms around her waist. "I'm so sorry, Baby. Please don't cry." 

"I'm going to rip out his throat." She growled. She shoved away from Jordan and stood up. She wiped her face with the heel of her hand. "I'm going to rip off his dick and shove it down his throat. How DARE that asshole come into MY home." She balled her hands into fists. 

Jordan stood up and grinned. "That's the Elunara we know." 

"Gods, I'm so pissed right now." She rubbed her forehead. "The last asshole to make me shed a tear; is currently wrapped around my arm." She rubbed her hand on it.

He paused in the reattaching of his shoulder plate. "Lorros made you cry?"

She stared at the floor. 

Jordan ran a hand down her arm. "You can tell me." He whispered. 

"I missed my baby." She shrugged. "I missed my family. I..." Her voice shook. "I couldn't be without them. It drove me crazy." 

Jordan smiled and put his hand on her cheek. "Baby, that just means you have a heart that can be broken."

The door opened and both looked over to see Tulani standing in the doorway. 

Elunara went to her. 

Tulani clutched her hands together. "Why?" tears came easily to her. 

"Sweetheart, I have to tell you something important." Elunara gripped Tulani's shoulders.

"Are you alright?" She whispered.

Elunara shook her head. "I wasn't here at the time."

"I know. They told me outside. There's something wrong with your face." Tulani reached up.

"I had a good cry, that's all."

Tulani's hand froze and her eyes went wide. "But, you never cry." She whispered.

"Tulani..." Elunara sighed. "They took your picture."

She took a gasping breath and crumpled to the floor. "But that was MINE!" She cried. Tears streamed down her face. "You worked so hard on it, and it was MINE." She began gasping. 

Elunara dropped down and wrapped her arms around the weeping woman. "I'll make you another one my lovely." 

"But, I want mine back!" She wailed. 

Jordan stepped back and frowned. He stared at the piled up papers. Something caught his eye and he looked over. "Uh, Lu..." He called.

She blinked back at him. "What?"

"Was the thing in this lockbox important?"

"Shit! Shit, shit, shit!" She left Tulani on the floor and ran over. She put her hand all over the inside. "That fucking ASSHOLE!" 

Jordan jumped backwards. 

"I thought it was him, but the missing papers confirm it."

A man ran in and almost tripped over Tulani. "Elunara, Kathleen is gone." 

"Fucking Tim." Elunara growled. 

"Well, I'm not leaving until he is caught." In Renwa's office, Tyrande crossed her arms. 

"Ma'am, you're a major security risk." Renwa sighed. "You might be on his target list."

Grogek snorted. "She's also one of the most powerful people in this room. Tim won't survive the wilds of Draenor, he's sloppy. Even the weapons he stole are worthless." 

Elunara's fingernails dug into the nice new conference table in Renwa's office. "Let me go after him. I'm the best tracker in this town. I'll drag his sorry ass back, and leave that obnoxious bitch hanging from the nearest tree as food."

"You're also the most emotional. I cannot let you go."

Elunara narrowed her eyes. "What did you call me?"

Grogek put a hand over hers, just as Jordan reached down and put his on her shoulder. They exchanged a look and Grogek spoke. "You're only proving his point right now." 

Elunara shook both of them off. "I'm going for a walk." She muttered as she stood and walked out. 

Jordan and Grogek looked at each other. "I'll go, you plan." Jordan said as he quietly left.

"I find the dynamic in this town very strange." Tyrande remarked. She turned to Grogek. "You're ok with that man being in love with your wife?"

Grogek shrugged. "I couldn't explain it to you without Elunara drawing up the charts and graphs that would be needed."

Tyrande chuckled. "You're very like her." 

"She is my life mate, my soul mate, and everything before or after that. If Jordan cannot understand those points, he will be removed. If allowing a good man like Jordan to pursue her brings her any measure of happiness, then why should I stand in the way? Just as Tulani has become mine, if Jordan finds his place in this family, he will be mine as well. Everything that is Elunara's is mine." He shrugged. 

Elunara marched through the streets. She was beyond pissed, but she wasn't about to go out without direct order. She wanted to retrieve Tulani's picture herself, and have more than—She dodged the attack from behind. She twirled on her attacker, knowing full well who she dealt with. The pathway was blocked. 

"Hello, Bitch." Called a female voice. "You head this way, and I will shoot you."

Elunara dodged another attack. 

"Of course, I want to just shoot you in the head and be done with you, but darling Tim here has a score to settle."

She continued to dodge the dagger, and the sword. He still seemed to think that the two hand approach was the best way to do it. She sighed inwardly. At least she wouldn't have to hunt the idiots down. He was terrible with that dagger. "Why the hell are you using a weapon you're not proficient at? Moron." 

"Did..." He pinned her against the wall. "You like the present I left for you?"

"Give me back Tulani's picture." She growled. She kicked out and got his knee. He roared and fell back. She jammed her fist under his ribs. 

"What picture?" Kathleen asked. 

"Your dumbass boyfriend stole my wife's nude picture." Elunara sneered. 

"Ew! You better not!"

"I shredded it." He snarled.

Elunara jammed the heel of her hand under his chin. 

"Hey!" Cried a voice. "Get away from her!" 

"Jordan! No!" 

Jordan launched himself at Tim, but Kathleen's shot caught him in the face. 

"NO!" Screamed Elunara. With a flick of her hand, she summoned her dagger and shoved it up under Tim's chin. She pushed the limp body out of the way and collapsed down on to Jordan. "NO!! She screamed. "NO, COME BACK TO ME!" 

Kathleen threw the gun on the ground and fled. 

Both Tyrande and Grogek froze at the same time. She was quicker, but he followed her out and followed her movements through the streets. They found Elunara wrapped around Jordan, screaming. 

"Take her. I'll save the boy." Said Tyrande. 

Grogek pried her free of Jordan. "Love, come with me."

She sniffled and buried her face in Grogek's chest. "The idiot tried to save me. Kathleen shot him." 

Tyrande ran her hands on Jordan. She frowned. He was gone, and she wasn't entirely certain she could bring him back. She stood and concentrated. The link to Elune was weaker here, but she wasn't the most powerful priest for nothing. She held up her hands and prayed for a miracle. 

Tulani reached them and cast her own hands to the sky. Soon they were followed by Ina, and the rest of the healers. Together they all concentrated on the same spell, the same prayer. Slowly, Jordan's body rose into the air and a brilliant circle of light. Not certain what she was doing, Elunara walked forward and placed her hands up on Jordan's chest. She closed her eyes and prayed. 

Slowly, he was lowered back to his feet. He blinked at her in confusion. "Elunara?" He whispered; his voice hoarse.

"Jordan!" She wrapped her arms around his neck. "Oh, you foolish man." Tears streamed down her blood stained face.

He brushed the back of his fingers across her cheek. "Why are you crying for me?" He stared dumbly at the blood on his hand.

The healers and Tyrande stumbled back. Tyrande shook her head. "Elune can barely hear me, but she heard." 

Elunara threw herself on Tyrande. "Thank you."

Tyrande wrapped her arms around Elunara and smiled. "How long I have wished for you to do that, my child?" She whispered. 

Elunara untangled herself and kicked Tim's corpse. She bent down and began searching his pockets. Tucked into his shirt, she found the thing she wanted. "Kathleen must have my books." Elunara sighed. She unfolded the page and brought it back to Tulani. "Here."

Tulani wrapped her arms around Elunara. "I felt you! I felt you! I know I did!"

Elunara shook her head. "Felt me what?

"I felt you grab on to Jordan's spirit and yank him back!" She cried, tears in her eyes. 

"I did what now?" Elunara blinked. 

"Yes." Tyrande smiled. "I felt you too. There is some of Elune's own spirit with in you, and it is very powerful." 

Grogek eyed her. "This Elune, is she powerful?"

"One of the most powerful there is." Tyrande nodded.

"Well," He shrugged. "Now we know where she gets that endless supply of energy."

"But, I never trained."

"Because none of us felt it within you. You didn't test well for the service, so we never tried to train you. I guess the well was always in you, but you had to figure it out on your own." Tyrande sighed. "Perhaps if I had recognized it sooner, we would have never come apart."

Elunara shrugged. "I can't complain, really." 

"Elunara?"

She looked back at Jordan. 

"I have the mother of all headaches." 

"Oh, Jordan... your face." She stooped down and put a hand on the ruin of his cheek. 

"We might be able to heal some of that." Ina nodded. "Once we get our breath back, we'll each give it a good go." 

"I can't see out of my right eye." He frowned. 

"Kathleen shot you in the face. Elune knows where she was actually aiming." Elunara sighed. 

"Oh. Is it bad?" He winced.

"For now, but the healers will do what they can." 

"I'm so sorry."

She laughed. "For what?"

"If I'd assed the situation, instead of jumping in, I might have known about Kathleen."

Elunara shook her head. "You can't guess crazy." 

"Well, I didn't, and now I'm hideous." He pouted.

She ran her fingers over the area. "When Ina gets done with you, you'll be distinguished."

"But I'll still be scarred." 

"Sweetheart, Grogek is beautiful because I say he is. Tulani is covered in scars you haven't seen. I'm not exactly picky with who floats my fancy. You'll be just beautiful the way you are; even if Ina can't fix any of the damage." She kissed his mangled cheek.

He wrapped his arms around her. "As long as I have you." He murmured. 

"Well, if we're keeping him," Grogek snorted. "We're going to need another bed."

"Oh, I have plans made up for an entire house to be built." She grinned. 

"Then we'll have to get started on it right away." Renwa nodded. 

Jerry and Louis appeared from seemingly nowhere. "Hey, we can see if we can beat our other house record. A few other men from around town had found their selves standing around watching the ruckus. 

"I don't know." Said Mark. "When Elunara gets involved, everything gets that much more complicated. Her own house? Might take a couple of days." He rubbed his beard.

"PLACE YOUR BETS!" Called Gerald.

Tyrande leaned over to Elunara. "This entire town is crazy."

"You have no idea." She shook her head.



For the Whored Ch. 060



She laughed and batted his hand away. "Stop picking at it." 

"But it itches."

"Ina said it would for a few days. They had to rebuild your face. Be glad it's healing, and that you can see out of that eye now." She smacked his hand again. "I may love you as you are, but I don't love a man with self inflicted wounds." She kissed his good cheek. 

He wrapped his arms around her. "Say that again." He whispered.

Elunara shook her head. "That I love you?" She ran her fingers through his hair. "I do. Just get ready for work, sugar. I have appointments today." She stepped out of his new bedroom. 

Walking down the hallway she returned to her own massive bedroom. Grogek and Tulani's beds were as they should be. Per her design, the largest part of the upstairs was just this room. It was almost the same size as their barracks building. Jordan's room was down the hall and still sizable. The downstairs was where she performed most of her tasks. One room was her books, other bedrooms were meant for clients. Darguni's bedroom was a two level deal, with its own inner staircase. When he got older, it would be a fabulous bedroom for him. Yoona drove herself crazy trying to keep up with everyone getting ready for their days. 

Tulani had her own sewing room, with her desk and all of the things she might need to have her own tailor shop. Because of the sensitive nature of Elunara's work, there was a door to the outside from the back, in case Tulani wanted to have someone stop by. Eloise was thrilled to have another space with which to work on multiple orders. 

Grogek didn't need any extra space, but Elunara designed him a workout room, if he should ever want it. However, Elunara had more than her share of fun, hiding sexy spots throughout the house. She couldn't wait to try out all of her designs and implementations. She and Grogek had already given that upper banister a good workout. She decided the extra shoring was worth the price.

Grogek snagged her and tossed her on the bed. She giggled wildly. He climbed on top and buried his face in her shoulder. She wiggled against him. "Mmm, what's this for?"

"Can't I have my wife whenever I want her?" Grogek grinned. 

Elunara laughed. "If I ever believed that your desires came before my own, I think I'd just give up on life."

He laughed and slid his fingers down her pants. Running his fingers through her wetness he grinned. "I've found a few more of your design quirks. Including the fold down you put above my shaving mirror."

"Ohhh, that one. You like it? I had to spend hours in front of a mirror to make it right."

"My Gods, you are evil." He slipped his fingers in her and buried his face in her neck. 

Jordan heard a noise coming from his wall. He ran his hand along the wall until he found a catch. He sat down and popped the catch. A little round door opened up and he was treated to Grogek with his face buried in Elunara's crotch. At first, he snapped the door shut, but then it occurred to him that this would be one of Elunara's designs. He popped the door back open and watched with interest. 

She ran her nails on the back of his head. "Gods, I love when you do that." She groaned. 

He grinned at her, licking his lips. "Knowing you, that's why it was there."

"I can't wait until you find the one in the closet." She grinned. 

He crawled up the length of her body. "How many did you hide, and how many carpenters pleasured themselves with them?"

"Oh, several. And none, I had the catches put in, I added the papers afterwards." 

He slipped himself into her. "In all the rooms?" 

"Well, I didn't in Darguni's, but the rest of the house..." She wrapped her knee up on his sides. 

He gripped one of her knees and began to plunge himself in and out. "I repeat, you are evil. We're going to have morning breakfast and have a nude of you pop out of the cabinet."

"Oh, you found that one already?" She grinned. 

He thrust into her. "Gods, you kill me." He groaned. 

She grabbed him by the fang. "I love you." She whispered. 

They devoured each other's mouths while Grogek pumped himself in and out. 

Dick in hand, Jordan considered his room. What other tricks had she planted? It felt strange and sort of wrong that he was sitting here, jacking off to Elunara being fucked by her husband, but he really didn't care.

Once Grogek dislodged himself from Elunara, Jordan snapped the window shut. She grinned at the movement on the wall; seems like Jordan just got his first use out of one of her presents. 

Grogek wiped himself off and found his pants in the closet. Curious, he popped the hidden latch. He found a fascinating picture of Elunara, leg in the air. Perhaps tomorrow. He grinned at her on the bed. "You're evil. I'm going to think about that one all day." 

She shrugged and got out of bed. "And anytime you wish to give it a look." She stood on her toes and kissed him. "Forgive me; I'm going to see if Jordan found any surprises."

Grogek laughed. "You're insatiable." 

"As always." She winked. She tucked her head around. "Oh, I'd save the one in your axe closet for tonight." 

He raised an eyebrow at the closet she'd designed to keep his weapon away from the baby. 

She knocked on Jordan's door. 

"Come in." 

Judging by that... she giggled and walked in. 

"I agree with Grogek, you're evil." He jerked a thumb to the port hole. 

She laughed. "I thought you'd appreciate that one. In fact, I saw you using it." She winked. 

He turned and she saw he still had a nice erection going. He slid his hands down her ass. "I found the one in the closet." 

"Is that so?" She ran her finger across the tip of his dick. 

He shuddered. "Evil." 

"How evil?" She whispered. Before he could answer, she knelt down and slipped her mouth over his dick. 

He gasped in surprise and gripped her head. "The most evil." He groaned. 

She played with his balls while she sucked on his dick. He groaned and stumbled back on the bed. When he was just about mad with it, she stood up and pushed him backwards. She climbed on top of him and began bouncing her hips on to his. His fingernails dug into her hips. 

Grogek pushed open the door and rolled his eyes. "Elunara." 

She looked back. 

"I'm headed for the training yard."

She held out a hand and he walked to her, kissing her mouth. She grinned up at him. "I like when you do that."

"How about this..." He grabbed her hip and pumped her up and down. Pressing a finger into his ass, he grinned. 

"Oh, Geez." Jordan gasped, feeling Grogek finger through Elunara's wall. He grabbed the bed sheets 

Elunara was pushed forward, her breasts rubbing against Jordan's chest. She gasped as the orgasm ripped through her, clamping her body down. 

Grogek laughed. He pulled his finger out and wiped it on a nearby towel. "Don't be late to the yard, Jordan." He turned and walked out, axe on his shoulder. 

"This house is strange." Jordan managed. 

Elunara laughed. "And I love the hell out of it." She slipped off of him and bounced out of the room. 

He stared out of the door for a long moment before scrambling to get himself cleaned up. 

Having moved into Elunara's house, and knowing full well what Elunara did, Jordan got himself many strange looks, though everyone remained friendly.

He stood at the edge of the training yard watching. They hadn't received a new haul of recruits in a few weeks, but he hoped they'd have some soon. The men were already looking well oiled. 

One of the newer recruits stopped in front of him. Roger it was. 

"Yes?"

"Uh, sir. I..." He swallowed. "I just got permission from General Grogek to... visit Elunara. Since I know you've recently... taken up with her, I figured I should ask your permission too."

Jordan laughed. "If Grogek says it, I cannot argue it. Ultimately, it is Elunara decision as to whether she'll see you."

"Ah. Uh, ok." HE rubbed the back of his neck before walking away. 

"You're late." Snarled Grogek. 

"Elunara." Jordan sighed.

Grogek chuckled. "How are they looking?"

"Like we need fresh blood. Some of these are due to be shipped out soon." 

"I agree. I'm bordering on bored."

"Renwa says there's to be a new order soon, but there's something wrong with the mages." 

"Hmm. I wonder if I should recruit from some of our travelers." Grogek spit. 

"The Draenei are pretty impressive from our time. I bet we snag them fresh from here, we'd have some interesting lots." 

"Maybe I'll see about getting some orcs out of Iron Horde hands." Grogek crossed his arms. "I know of some hold outs from Grommash's grasp. Even among the Warsong." 

"Wouldn't that be something?" Jordan sighed. "Anyway, I'm needed elsewhere." He whacked Grogek on the back. 

"Isn't that just the weirdest damned thing you've ever seen?" Remarked Andrew.

Steve rubbed his neck. "What?"

"Both of those men are fucking the same woman, and only one of them is actually married to her." 

Steve shrugged. "You've been here longer, why are you surprised?" 

"Because I've seen what the Orc and the Night Elf get up to in the south orchard. No human can compete with that." 

Gerald walked by and snorted. "What are you two goofballs yammering about?"

"Captain Gerald," Andrew snorted. "I like how we use honorary titles around here." 

Gerald shrugged. "I get discounts on my drinks." 

Andrew cocked his head. "Good point. Anyway, we were just discussing how Elunara has two men at the same time, and they... get along with each other."

"You're forgetting Tulani, so two men and a woman." He shrugged. "Elunara's stamina is legendary. She's even fucked Varian Wyrnn himself. No one can answer the recent rumor that she fucked Maraad, but I know she's had at it with Thrall."

"Holy shit." Andrew snorted. "Can't keep her legs together, can she?"

"I used to be her spotter. She's a mission specialist, who specializes in seducing a target; turning him into a quivering vat of goo and making him give up all the secrets. I can honestly tell you, I watched her snap a man's neck with those legs, WHILE he was eating her out."

Steve's hand went to his own neck. "Ugh."

"That's sick."

"Don't piss her off, boys..." Gerald patted their shoulders. "You'll just wind up like all the others." 

"Yeah, Tim got a dagger through the brain." Steve shrunk back. "Terrance is covered in scars... I heard Grogek beheaded a man... the list goes on." He whispered. 

Jordan knocked on the door to Renwa's office. 

"Enter!"

Jordan stepped inside and discovered the usually tidy Renwa looking disheveled, and Zelinnia tugging her skirt back into order. Jordan chuckled. "Am I interrupting?"

"Not a bit." Renwa grinned. 

"You're lucky we finished." Zelinnia muttered. She looked up with shock and slapped a hand over her mouth. 

Jordan had gotten used to Zelinnia's habit of saying something embarrassing before she realized she'd opened her mouth. He grinned at her, even as she tried to hide her face in paperwork.

"You're looking better. Living with Elunara is working out for you then?"

Jordan put his hand to his scarred and scabbed face. He grinned. "She's completely goddamned insane is what she is." 

"I take that as a yes." Renwa grinned again. 

"Apparently, she's rigged the entire house with naughty pictures. I've only found a couple so far..." 

Renwa rolled his eyes and groaned. "Please tell me she didn't do that to my house."

"You'd have found them by now, I'm sure."

Zelinnia snorted. "I found a fascinating diagram in the bathroom, but I couldn't make heads or tails of the straps. I'm going to make her come show me." Suddenly Zelinnia whacked herself in the face with a book before laying her head on her desk. "Leave me alone." She groaned.

There was a knock on the door.

"Have angels come to save me?" Zelinnia mumbled

Jordan opened the door and a man came in. 

"Sir! I figured you should see this." He held up a bloody fan and a destroyed yellow bonnet, splattered with blood. "It was found during a hunting trip out. About a mile from here, due west."

"Well, it looks like Kathleen won't make it to the wedding." Renwa examined the bonnet.

"Damn, and I was so hoping." Zelinnia sighed. 

"We can prop her hat on a target dummy, it'll be a damned sight quieter." Renwa grinned. 

Zelinnia tapped her chin. "I'll get back to you on that one."

"Sir, Grogek has an interesting idea. To recruit new men from some of the Draenei, or even the orc clans set against Grommash."

"Fascinating idea. We'll have to spend some time coming together."

Jordan continued to stand there, fidgeting.

"Out with it, Jordan." 

"Sir? She... She told me she loves me." He whispered.

Zelinnia glanced at Renwa, confident in his expression, she returned to her paperwork.

Renwa laughed. "You can thank Grogek for that. She never would have been able to say it before." He shook his head. "She said it to me once, and only once. And it was because I asked her to." 

Jordan's eyes flicked to Zelinnia, who had gone into her paper trance.

"And I asked her, because I wanted to hear it just once. It sounded fake and it didn't sound right. That's when I was truly able to let go of a fantasy that never existed." Renwa tapped his fingers on the table. "Cherish it, Jordan. It means nothing to me now." 

Jordan nodded. "Yes, sir." 

Elunara wrapped her arms around Grogek's neck and dangled from his back. 

"Hello, Love." Grogek laughed. 

"I wanted to try something different. I haven't decided if I like it or not." 

He stood there at the edge of the training yard and surveyed his troops. Elunara climbed up on Grogek's shoulders and got comfortable. 

"So where is Darguni?" 

She wiggled her feet. "Mrs. Finister and Mayby are watching him right now. Maybe wants practice with babies."

"Darguni is no baby."

"Well, he's walking pretty well now, should we tuck a small axe in his hand?" Elunara leaned down and grinned. 

"You know, having your crotch pressed into the back of my head is rather distracting." He grinned up at her. 

"My tits floating so high above your mouth isn't helping the matter I'm sure." 

"I feel like a fish in a bowl." He snorted. 

"You can punish me later." She wiggled meanly against his head. 

"You're sticky through your clothes." HE grumbled. 

"Sugarbear, I have no idea when I'm not horny."

"Oh yes, you are getting punished later. While I stand here, a beacon for discipline." 

She giggled. "I should tell you, I put a little port hole between our bedroom and Jordan's. I'm going to warn him when he's not to use it. I've also put a way to block it for when you decide on the fly you don't want him spying."

"Alright then."

"He used it this morning. I forgot to mention it to you, I'm sorry."

Grogek shrugged. "That's fine. I assume you'll figure out a signal for when you want him to join us."

"And the reverse of course." 

He reached up and stroked her legs. "Whatever pleases you, my love."

"I wonder if I can get off like this." She considered.

"My little wolf, you can get off by thinking about it."

"This is true." She bent down and kissed his head. 

"You two look silly." Jordan snorted. 

"Well, I'd sit on your shoulders, but those pauldrons don't look too leg friendly."

He laughed and shook his head. 

She bent down and smacked his hand. "Stop picking." 

"It itches." 

Grogek snorted. "Show some discipline."

Jordan rolled his eyes. "Don't you start."

Grogek reached out and smacked Jordan in the back of the head. "Stop picking." 

"Gah!" He tossed up his hands. 

"Did you even bother to ask Ina about that salve?" Elunara propped her elbow on Grogek's head. 

"Fine, I'll go!" He sighed and scratched his neck, because he wanted to claw at his face. 

Elunara watched him for some time. "It bothers him, and I doubt it's because he's itchy."

"It's not uncommon for someone to get a major injury like that, and continue to favor it, long after it stops bothering them physically."

"I am well aware. I have made many men my emotional slaves, because I played to those injuries. I will not do it for Jordan."

"Nor should you." 

With a sigh, she climbed down. "I better make sure he goes to Ina's. That salve will do him more good than he thinks." 

"You're a good woman, my little wolf." He pulled her close and captured her mouth. 

She slid out of his grip with a smile. "Remember, you were going to punish me later." She winked.

"Don't worry, I have something planned."

She found Jordan standing there, staring at Ina's door. "Seriously?" 

He almost jumped a mile. Jordan rubbed his neck and looked back. "Maybe she's busy."

"It's a healer building, you just walk in." She grabbed him by the arm. 

"But, she did all she could." He frowned. 

"Oh, Jordan. Don't be this person." She sighed and gently rubbed her fingers across his bad side. "For me." 

He sighed and let himself be led inside. She pushed him into a chair. "Ina!" She called. 

"I'm sorry, Ina is out, can...." The Night Elf woman stopped and stared. "You're the one..."

Elunara shifted her eyes back and forth. "Sweetie, that is the most loaded statement in the history of loaded statements, I'm the one WHAT?"

She shook her head. "I'm sorry. My names Leslia. Forgive my rudeness, it's just... I was there that night, when Elune reached through you to bring..." She caught sight of Jordan. "Him back." 

"Oh, that." Elunara laughed. "Yeah, can we have some of the salve Ina uses for scabs?" 

"Yes, of course." She began to dig through the cabinets. "I have trained with Elune since I was little. Given my age, I only ever heard of Tyrande's daughter in whisper and rumor. I had no idea you'd be as powerful as your mother."

"I'm going to stop you right there." Elunara took the little jar from her hand. "I, am not, nor will ever be, powerful in Elune. It was a strange fluke." 

"Oh no, it can't possibly be." She folded her hands in front of her. 

"How much for the jar?" 

She shook her head. "For you, I will cover it." 

"Oh, don't do that. I don't like doing that. I know how..."

"Please don't. Elune moves through you. I felt her that night, more powerful than I ever have before. Tyrande got her attention, but you... you brought her here and used her to save him." She nodded her head towards Jordan. 

"Ohhh kay..." Elunara shook her head. "I guess we both just remember it differently." She laughed and turned to Jordan who was staring at her with awe. 

"Did you really do that to save me?" he squeaked. 

She shrugged and opened the little pot, sitting beside him while she rubbed on. "All I did that night was lay my hands on you. Nothing more. She's just delusional." Elunara laughed. "It was probably my mother. She's the most powerful priestess of our kind. I guess being her flesh and blood just makes me... similar? I don't know. I do know that I felt nothing." She rocked her head back and forth. "Desperation maybe." 

He grinned, a feat that didn't hurt as much at the moment as it had been. "You were desperate to save me?" 

"A little, maybe? She shrugged. "What I was and what I wasn't are different things." She ran her fingers across his scars and sighed. "I am not a priestess, and in fact the only magical abilities I possess, is the ability to enchant any ink I create. That's how I've transmitted communiqué all these years."

"Maybe you do have some latent ability."

"I have a ridiculous amount of stamina. That's what I have." Come on, I'll put some more of this on you tonight." 

Leslia ran upstairs to the other girls nursing patients. "You won't believe who I just spoke with."

"Who?"

"Elunara."

"The lady with the... interesting business?"

Leslia rocked her head back and forth. "Well, I guess. No, the one from that night. The one that Elune herself reached out to." 




For the Whored Ch. 060



"They're the same person?" 

"Yes! She thinks it wasn't her. She claims she felt nothing."

"But... she saved him!"

"We couldn't reach him, he was already gone!" The pair looked at each other. 

Leslia nodded. "She thinks she has no ability!" 

"That's ridiculous!" 

"We must show her." 

Leslia nodded. "I'm not sure how, though." She put a hand to her cheek. 

"Well, let's speak with the others, and Ina. Ina knows her best." 

"Yes, let's."

"What are you three doing here whispering? Get to work." Ina put her hands on her hips. 

The other two scattered, but Leslia put her hands together. "I'm sorry Miss Ina; I gave Elunara a pot of salve. You can take it out of my pay."

Ina snorted. "I haven't charged that girl in years. When she does remember to give me money, I use it on the next person who needs it instead."

"Ina, Elunara doesn't think she was involved. She... she tells me she felt nothing."

Ina frowned. "The girl can be dense sometimes, but to not feel that? The light was around her. Her entire being channeled it."

"We know." Leslia sighed. "But she got insulted that I told her."

"Well, she can be thick in the head. It's probably best not to bother with it, because she'll just dig her heels in." Ina sighed. "Leave her be. If it comes out again, I'll look into it."



For the Whored Ch. 061



"Is this really the best option?" Tia sighed. 

"Well, it's the only way we're going to have a reason to spend time with her." Leslia chided. 

"But... my body has never seen by anyone but me and the purification priestess..." Nona sighed. 

"We'll just have to make it work." Leslia gripped their hands. She reached out and knocked on Elunara's door. 

"Oh, Elunara's not in right now." A man with sandy shaggy hair smiled. "She's down at the pavilion, entertaining some travelers that came in on caravan this morning."

"Thank you..." Leslia bowed. 

"Jerry. She's a sight to see, you should go up there."

"I think we will." Leslia smiled. 

They followed the sound of singing. Elunara stood on a stage, singing her heart out and dancing around in circles. She managed to both sing and perform the traditional ballads all on her own. 

"Look at her glow." Leslia said in awe. 

"It's like a miracle of Elune." Tia agreed. 

They watched as Elunara switched tone and song and performed a weeping ballad. Those around her seemed to be caught in a trance of her. The one known as Jordan sat by the edge of the stage, his face turned in an awed supplication. The one called Grogek was in the stands, his legs crossed as his head bounced to the tune. It was hypnotic. 

"If she does not feel this..."

"I wouldn't know what to do with her." Nona nodded. 

All three were well acquainted with Tulani who climbed up on stage and began to sing with Elunara. It was an obviously old routine, as Tulani picked up the female verses and Elunara went with male. The normally timid Tulani lit up with a festival tree as she performed the flawless duet. After a dip and a kiss, Tulani laughed as she made her way off stage. Elunara switched tones again and went for a war ballad. Even the most downtrodden of the refugees stood up and at the call to arms. Roaring and cheering, they asked for more, even as she slid off the stage. 

She kissed Tulani. "Thank you, my little lovely. Even if you do hate the stage."

"That was amazing." Leslia clasped her hands together in front of her. 

Elunara looked over at the three priestesses. "Uh, yeah. Glad you could make it." 

"Do you do that often?"

Elunara scratched the back of her head. "Whenever there's a caravan mostly. It helps the refugees with their misery." She gestured to the now cheerful crowd. 

Tulani smiled and cuddled against Elunara. "This is one of the reasons I fell in love with her." Elunara and Tulani kissed again in a soft and slow passionate way that made the three priestesses largely uncomfortable. Elunara ran her fingertips on Tulani's jaw, and then traced her lips. 

Leslia cleared her throat. "Forgive me. We were hoping you could do our portraits. 

"Oh sure, I can schedule them. Do you want all three at once, or individually?" Elunara dug a small pad of paper out of her pocket. "I assume you'd stick with portraits? I mean, it might be helpful to add your own pictures to Ina's physicals." 

They looked at each other. "Yes, I think we should." Leslia finally said. 

"You should know." Tulani smiled. "Elunara always tries to be respectful of your wishes, and she's gentle as a lamb."

"Aw, you're ruining my reputation as a big mean ogre." Elunara pouted. She looked over. With a sigh she kissed Tulani again. "Forgive me; I have to go whack Jordan." 

Tulani sighed. "That man is forever picking at his face." 

"What's it like?" Tia asked. 

Tulani blinked. 

"Living in that situation, I mean." Tia blushed.

"Well, sometimes, it's a little strange." She shrugged. "You get used to anything when Elunara is involved."

"But, two men?" 

"With stamina like Elunara, two men doesn't begin to cover it. Between the three of us, you'd figure she'd drop at some point, but if she didn't have her practice, she's go insane from boredom. She always makes sure each one of us is satisfied. She tries to give each of us a day of the week in which one gets her undivided attention."

"Fascinating." Leslia cocked her head to the side.

"Do you..." Nona trailed off and flushed. 

"Elunara tries to keep me out of the male business. I join sometimes because she makes me fun for me too. It's one of Elunara's fantasies, but she won't do anything to upset me. It can be a little frustrating to be thought of as frail, but that's not even why she does it. She just wants the people she loves to be happy." 

"Did you... feel it?"

Tulani felt the heat rise in her face. "Feel what?"

"The night that she saved Jordan... did you feel the presence?"

"Oh!" Tulani cleared her throat. "Oh, yes. Yes, I did. I've tried to speak of it to her, but she just laughs or rolls her eyes." 

"Have you felt it before?"

"When she enjoys herself." Tulani shrugged. "I can't explain it. When she sings, she turns into this goddess. When she..." Tulani coughed. "Does certain things, her whole body radiates the pleasure." She looked over at Jordan and Elunara. Elunara had wrapped an arm around Jordan's and was speaking low. "When the men see her... orgasm, she changes. Some of the... outsiders who have seen it say the same." Tulani shook her head. "When she dominates in the ring, it comes through. When she's depleted most of her stamina, she changes in a different way. I've been watching it all this time. It's... fascinating." 

"What about all of her stamina?"

Tulani shook her head. "No one's found it." 

"General Grogek?"

At the training yard, he looked over and spotted the three Night Elf women approaching. "Yes?" 

"We'd like to speak with you about Elunara."

He nodded, but didn't change his position. "Tulani figured you'd be along."

"You and Tulani have a good relationship?" Nona cocked her head to the side.

"Tulani is Elunara's, so Tulani is mine. I love her about as well as I could." 

"Forgive me; I'm trying to wrap my head around it." Nona nodded.

Grogek grinned. "Give up; you're just going to hurt yourself."

"We wanted to speak with you about Elunara." Leslia repeated herself. "We're trying to understand her extreme stamina."

"Well, Tulani was not there, but I am aware of one time she was fully depleted." 

"Please tell us."

"It was back in Grommash's compound. He had lost his mind, and she had decided to try and take advantage of the situation. It did not go to her favor. He went even crazier. He eventually broke every bone in her body. She was a complete mess, and I rescued her body and hid her away. I forced my sister to heal Elunara, and she did not want to. I may not understand shamanism, and I have no idea about this light or Elune of yours, but even with as little as Lama did, Elunara's body began to heal on its own. Lama wanted to let her die, and basically held my axe to her throat and told her to work. 

While Elunara was still unconscious, her body began to glow. Lama had no idea what was going on and felt it had been some kind of trick. Her body seemed to absorb Lama's powers. Stuck in a trance and held by whatever force is in Elunara's body, Elunara was saved. I fed her and nursed her and brought her back, but this light of hers did most of the leg work for me. Lama refused to ever touch her again." Grogek shrugged. "Tulani says this Elune of yours worked through her that night to save Jordan. I find that interesting, because I'd never seen her glow so bright as the night Grommash destroyed her; until the night she reached out for Jordan." 

"Does that bother you?" Tia asked. 

Confusion crossed Grogek's face. "Does what bother me?"

"That the only other time this came out, was reaching for Jordan?"

"Why would that bother me?" He shook his head. "Knowing my Elunara, should the same thing happen to me... Her power would level this whole damned town. That is something I would swear to."

"That's terrifying." Leslia murmured. 

"Elunara is terrifying." Grogek shrugged. "Look at me. You've seen these men, you've seen their wounds. You may not have come to see our spars, but I know you've healed her before. She completely exhausts me. There are days that I wonder where the well spring comes from. Maybe now I understand." He shrugged. "If you wish to truly know Elunara, you have to read her books. They're still in shambles from Tim's stupidity, but you should read them." 

In her house, she worked. "You three are really making the rounds." Elunara flicked her eyes up and down. "I still don't see why you have this interest in me."

"We're just trying to understand you." Leslia smiled. 

"Read my books." Elunara shrugged. "They're almost fixed. I've been going in chronological order, so the early stuff you can start on when you have time." She tapped her pencil on her board. "Of course, I'm surprised Ina has given you three time to investigate me."

"She's... not pleased." Leslia admitted. 

"You're not going to find what you're looking for." Elunara shrugged. "I was tested from birth. I have probably been tested more times than the three of you put together. I was the child of Tyrande Whisperwind, I had to be tested. Even if it took awhile for her to come into her own as the leader of the Night Elves, she WAS the best priestess in quite some time. In fact my birth was a direct relation to that title." Elunara sighed. "I always was a disappointment." 

"But you're not now." Tia smiled. "She speaks so highly of you." 

"Yeah, now." Elunara snorted. "Thirty years I was banished, without as much as a howdy do." 

"I'm sorry." Tia's smile fell. 

"Why three lovers?" Leslia interrupted. 

"One husband, a wife and a lover... That's the best way to explain it." Elunara grinned.

"But, why?"

"Because I can't keep my hands to myself." She shrugged and continued to work. 

"So you found a husband, and then decided to find a wife... and the lover is just for kicks?" Leslia pressed.

"You're going a long way for a smart bottom." Elunara glared. "Since you're too dense to just pick up my books and figure it out for yourself... I originally brought back Grogek on a leash. I had no intention of starting a relationship with him. He was to be my toy while we "pumped" him for information. I had no intention of "finding a husband" that was just crass. Grogek found that part of me that had been locked away. Tulani arrived, and the glacier that was my heart began to melt. Between the both of them, I found love. I married them both in the same damned ceremony." 

Leslia swallowed the rock in her throat. "I'm sorry, that was hateful of me."

"Jordan was a fluke. I'd spent the last eight years believing he hated me. When Zelinnia pointed out the obvious..." Elunara sighed. "It should have been obvious." She shook her head. "Well, I told him to follow his heart, and he wormed his way right into mine." She tapped her pencil. "Funny how that works." 

"What about General Jordan, bought out such emotion?" Leslia cocked her head to the side.

"I... I don't know." She frowned down at her work. "But I knew I cared for him, and that I didn't want him to get hurt over me. When he so stupidly threw himself in harm's way... suddenly I realized that I cared for him a lot more than I thought I did. That maybe, just maybe, he'd wormed his way in there years ago, I'd just never seen it until now. Having him die on me, for nothing, just hurt me so deeply."

"So tell me about that moment..." Leslia prompted. 

Elunara shook her head and closed her eyes. "I knew that... Kathleen's shot had gone wide, and there was just so much damage. So much damage..." She swallowed. "How could he be gone? He was right there. He couldn't be gone. Then Tyrande did what she did, and the other healers had come and offered themselves. He was slipping through my fingers. I reached up to grab him back." She shook her head and looked up. "I don't know. After that, I just don't know." She sighed. "It was after that moment that I realized that I loved him, and that I'd find a place to put him in my life, one way or another." 

Jordan didn't have it in him to feel guilty that he'd over heard her. He slipped back out of the door and closed it quietly. He laid his forehead against the door and sighed. With a grin, he decided he'd deal with the paperwork in his room another time.

"Perhaps we're looking at this all wrong." Back in the healer building, Nona tapped her chin. 

"What do you mean?" Leslia frowned. 

"What if Elune is working through this woman in a way we don't understand. Maybe Elunara isn't supposed to be a priestess, but rather her own brand of functioning is the glue that brings this town together. Elune has made this woman into who she is, in order to... I don't know, do something spectacular."

"You know," Tia cocked her head to the side. "I think you're on to something."

Leslia considered. "I... actually agree. Perhaps we've been sent to bring it out of her."

"Help her fulfill her purpose in the light of Elune." Nona nodded. 

Leslia nodded. "We will help her. We will be there for her."

"And whatever strangeness is laid out for her." Tia agreed. 

"Come girls, there's work to be done." Leslia smiled.



For the Whored Ch. 062



"You don't have to play nursemaid." Jordan held his hands up.

"Ok, fine. I'll get Grogek to do it." Elunara put her hands on her hips.

"Alright, alright. Knock yourself out." He grumbled. "Besides, I like your hands on my face."

"Which is what I believe is the main reason you don't do this on your own." She smacked his hand away from his face. "You have better places to put your hands." She grabbed his wrists and moved his hands to her ass. She picked up the little jar of salve and began to rub it on his face. "I swear, if you don't take care of yourself, you'll never see the end of..." She blinked as a chunk of the scab peeled off. 

"What happened?"

She held it up with some disgust. "Well, that happened." She tossed it in the wastebasket. Running her face over the spot, she smiled. "Now, that healed nicely." Reaching over, she snagged his mirror and held it up. "See?"

He ran a hand over the cleared area. "Yeah." 

She kissed him there and continued to rub the salve over the rest of his face. "Sweetheart, if you just take care of yourself, the rest will follow." She leaned in and inspected the edges. She managed to dislodge a few more chunks of the scab and rubbed more salve in the cleared areas. "You're coming along nicely, hot stuff." 

He grabbed her hand. "You haven't figured out your nickname for me yet."

She laughed. "Busted." Running her fingers over his face, she smiled. "I'm still figuring us out." 

He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her into his lap. "I'm OK with that."

Running her fingers across his face, and down his throat, she placed her mouth on his. 

Jordan's hand came up her back and under her shirt. He slipped the shirt over her head and buried his face in her breasts. His hands went down and slipped under the edge of her pants. Adjusting himself, he pulled her on to the bed with him and he lay back against the pillow. She pulled off his shirt and ran he tongue up his chest. He groaned and grabbed her ass. 

Kneeling over him, she grinned and tugged off her pants, tossing them to the floor. He bucked his hips up so that she could help him remove his own. She readjusted herself so that she sat on his belly, her ass touching his erection. He groaned at her as she made fascinating patterns with her teeth and tongue in the curve of his neck. With one hand, he slipped his fingers underneath her.

"You're always so damned slick." He murmured. "You drive a man to madness." 

"Well, I have been working on it..." She giggled, before pressing her mouth to his. Adjusting her hips, she slid down on to him. He groaned and grabbed her hips. Using his hand, he bounced her up and down on him before turning her over with him and thrusting deep inside. She wrapped her legs around him and ran her hands across his chest. "Give it to me, Jordan." She whispered. 

He knelt and grabbed her legs with his arms and her ass with his hands. With increasing force he slammed himself deep inside her. She gripped the straps she'd installed on the headboard. He had only a moment to be glad she'd padded the wall behind the headboard. Her legs clenched against him, the heels of her feet digging into his ass as she shuddered. Releasing her ass, he went forward, wrapping his arms on either side if her head. 

"I love you." He whispered, before claiming her mouth with his own and releasing himself inside of her.

Later, in the dark, she untangled herself from the sleeping Jordan and slipped out of his room. Careful not to wake Tulani, she climbed in the bed with Grogek. He shifted his arm to allow her in. She cuddled up to him. 

"You know, on nights like this, you can stay until morning and my feelings will no t be hurt." He put his chin on her head.

"Are you certain?"

"Just like with Tulani, it does not bother me when you spend the night with the one you went to bed with." He kissed her hair. "I might consider it insulting that you'd think I would be upset."

"You are the center of my world." She whispered.

"I know, my love. I know." 

"Are you sure, Jordan?" Elunara eyed him suspiciously. 

"Yeah, sure. I always liked kids. I still have some off time due to me. It'll be fun."

"You didn't even think YOU could, Elunara." Tulani reminded her. "If he wants to, I see no reason not."

Elunara crossed her arms and sighed. "Well, he is a handful. It would be nice to have another sitter."

"I do live here." Jordan crossed his own arms. "I want to be part of this family." 

Elunara tossed up her arms. "Fine! Fine. Geez."

Tulani wrapped her arms around Elunara. "It's ok to play protective mommy ever so often."

"Do NOT use that word." Elunara grumbled.

"Mommy is a bad word?" Jordan raised an eyebrow.

"Its... cutesy." Elunara snorted.

Darguni reached up. "Oran!"

Jordan hefted the kid up on his hip. "Hi, there. Would you like to go for a walk?"

"He's not a puppy." Elunara grumbled. 

Jordan gave her a look. "Where's Yoona's leash?"

"Come on, I'll show you." She sighed.

"I don't know why you're so against it."

"Would it make you feel any better if I told you I didn't know either?" She sighed and clipped the leash to Yoona's collar. "If you need ANYTHING..."

"I know, I know. I come back here or go to Eloise." He kissed her on the cheek. "We'll be fine." 

She sighed. "I guess I know that, but this is really the first major change we have made. I'm just... worried." 

He rubbed his thumb on her cheek. "Baby, don't worry." He leaned in and kissed her.

"Iss! Iss!" Darguni clapped. 

"Well, I guess he sees it a lot." Jordan laughed. "In any event, you said you had appointments today, and Eloise IS mad over that bolt of cloth. It'll be a nice change of pace."

"Ugh, more like I have interrogations today. Those three priestesses won't let up. Maybe being naked will halt their incessant questions."

He brushed her hair back with the tips of his fingers. "It was you who brought me back. They may have given you power, but it was your voice that called to me. That means something." He adjusted Darguni on his hip. "Come on big guy, let's you and me go find some bears to wrestle. Grr."

"Grr!" Was Darguni's reply. 

"What ARE you worried about?" Tulani frowned. 

Elunara yanked at her hair. "I don't even know. Jordan's like the... fifth or sixth safest place Darguni could be."

Jordan whistled as he made his way over to the park where he'd seen other kids play. Darguni was freaking heavy for his age. 

"Am I seeing this correctly?"

Jordan looked back and grinned at Renwa. "Yeah, I'm on baby duty today." 

"You're really getting into this, aren't you?"

"No reason not to." He shrugged. "You know, everywhere I look, and someone is eyeing me like they expect me to be thrown out on my naked ass. It's a little weird."

"Jordan, you just made yourself at home in the weirdest family in existence." 

"Isn't it great?" He grinned.

Renwa shook his head. "Where's the man who used to give Elunara dirty looks when she called me weird nicknames?"

"The dirty just changed meaning." Jordan grinned. 

"Well, your face is looking better. The scab really gives it character."

Jordan snorted as he sat Darguni down on the soft brown grass. "You're just jealous... women love scars." 

Renwa snorted. "Elunara could find love in a tube of toothpaste."

Jordan glared. "Hey!"

Renwa laughed. "Just testing you." Renwa shook his head. "Ah well, whatever happens, I guess."

"When are you and Zelinnia tying the knot?"

"Slightly less than a month, and it's making me itchy."

"You already live together, what would be different?"

"Everything, and nothing. It's all about meaning. Even she believes that it will mean that she's no longer just "that Blood Elf". It bothers her, even now."

"I guess I sort of wish me and Elunara could do the whole ceremony thing." He shook his head. "Doesn't matter though. I've figured out my course of action, where it goes from there is something else." Jordan played with Darguni.

"You know, I hope Zelinnia and I have a handful of them." Renwa said wistfully. "But Zelinnia won't give up that monthly drink until after we have vows."

"Your kid will be illegitimate enough to some, no need to make it worse on herself." Jordan shrugged. 

"You'll be my best man, right? I mean, Grogek will be there as a groomsmen or whatever the hell they're called. I want you to be my best man." 

Jordan smiled up at Renwa. "I'd be honored, sir."

"Stop calling me "sir". I think we're a little beyond that."

Jordan laughed. "I guess like Elunara, I'll have to find something else to call you, something that fits."

"As long as it's not sugarcakes, we'll be ok."

A woman sighed at the two men laughing. "Can you believe it?"

"Huh?" Tiffany looked up from her book. "What Cheryl?"

She jerked her chin across the way. "Captain... no, General Jordan has that kid of Elunara's."

Tiffany shrugged. "Yeah, so?"

"So?" She crossed her arms. "So, she already had that big ass orc to keep her entertained, but she had to go and get that Draenei woman. Then she opens up that silly business of hers, and finally she takes THE most eligible bachelor in the entire town. Who else is she going to make off with?"

Tiffany sighed. "Are you saying you'd want to leave your Ed for General Jordan?"

She shook her head. "Lord no, but I've tried to set him up with several woman so far, all of whom tell me he failed to complete in the end." She scratched her chin. "We all came to the conclusion that maybe he was gay." 

Tiffany snorted. "Maybe it's Grogek he lives with." 

Cheryl dropped her arms and stared. "OHhhhhh."

Jordan decided that he'd gotten himself into a mess when he tried to carry both the sleeping baby and the sleeping tiger cub back to the house. Elunara was probably going to skin him alive over how late they were getting back. 

Grogek snorted. "What are you doing?"

Jordan would have jumped out of his skin, if it hadn't currently been weighted down. "Trying to get home." 

"Don't make me put you in my strength training." Grogek scooped Darguni off of one shoulder, allowing Jordan to readjust the cat.

"Geez, these two sleep like the dead." 

Grogek laughed. "It's handy for getting them home though." 

Cheryl stared at the pair sharing a laugh. It all made sense now.

"So, how was it?" Grogek cast a sideways glance at Jordan.

"Pretty nice. I don't know why I hadn't thought of it before." 

Grogek nodded. "With a shared burden, it is easier to take care of things."

Jordan gave a half nod to the woman standing in the shadows. "Elunara is going to have my hide."

Grogek patting him on the shoulder. "Nah. Ok, maybe. We'll just have to smoother her temper over, won't we?" Grogek winked.

Jordan gave him a shit-eating grin. "Quite."

"Where have you been?" Elunara propped her hands on her hips. 

Grogek grinned and took Darguni to his room. 

"Sorry, it seems the three of us took a bit of a nap in the sun, by time I woke up, the sun was gone, and the pair were still tucked under my arms."

"Argh." She followed him into Darguni's room. "You made me worry." 

"Love, he was fine." Grogek gently pushed Elunara out of the room. 

"But..."

"He did just fine." 

She crossed her arms. "I don't LIKE worrying. It makes me feel... weird." 

Jordan closed the door quietly behind him. "We were fine, Baby. It's ok." He kissed her with a grin.

"What do you get to grin about?" She glared. 

Grogek stepped behind her and slid a hand down the front of her pants. "I can find plenty of things to grin about." He whispered in her ear.

"Oh, really now?"

Jordan slipped his hands up the front of her shirt and gripped her breasts. "I found two things to grin about right here." 

"Is that so?" She leaned her head against Grogek's chest and eyed Jordan. "You two think you're so funny, don't you?"

Grogek slipped a finger inside her and licked her neck. She gave a little gasp and Jordan went for her mouth. She was pinned between them, with Jordan playing with her breasts and teasing her mouth with his own, Grogek was behind her, one hand on her belly, the other one fingering her. Grogek dragged his teeth across her shoulder and licked the soft scratches. She groaned into Jordan's mouth. Off the banister above, Tulani watched with curiosity. 

Jordan shifted his hands and pulled her shirt off. Grogek grinned and slid her pants off before returning his hand to her slick wetness. He slipped two fingers in and began to pump in and out. Jordan bent down and began to suck on her breasts. She groaned and ran one hand through Jordan's hair, and the other she reached up and wrapped her arm around Grogek's neck. 

Grogek pushed her forward, and tugged his pants down. Grabbing her by the hips, he slipped her over his hard dick. Her leg wrapped back around his. Jordan slipped his hand down and rubbed his thumb on her clit. She groaned and arched back. Grogek ran his tongue on her neck. "You know you want it..." He whispered, barely audible. "Take it."

She pushed Jordan back, running her hands down his chest. She made her way to his pants, and tugging them down, and slipped his dick out. She licked the tip of him. Jordan groaned and ran his hands on her back. She slipped her mouth over him. 

Jordan reached down and played with her nipple with a groan. His other hand gripped her hair while she sucked on him. She moved up and down his dick, taking the length of him. She grabbed his balls and juggled them softly in her palm. Grogek began thrusting in and out of her, shoving her mouth on and off of Jordan's dick. Grogek gripped her hips and planted his feet, increasing rhythm and speed. Jordan almost doubled over and gripped her hair and shoulders. 

When she began to shiver and shake, she clamped down on both ends, causing them to release. Grogek clamped his hands on her hips and thrust her backwards as he filled her. Her mouth clamped down and Jordan grunted, exploding in her mouth. She slurped at him and slid herself free. He dropped to his knees. 

"Oh, baby." He murmured.

She slid free of Grogek and she giggled. "Maybe I should get mad at you both more often." 

"I don't know." Whimpered Jordan. "You might get mad enough to bite it off, and then where would I be?"

"Well, next time I can suck Grogek off, and you can fuck me."

"I'm okay with that."

Grogek snorted. "I like having him around. I don't have to terrify your clients."

She snorted. "Yeah, they stop coming back when you do that." She grinned. "The night is still young, there's more to be done."

"I'm going to need about five minutes." Jordan shook his head. "I don't have Grogek's quick turnaround times."

Elunara laughed. "First of all, no one does. Second of all, he usually just plays with me until he's ready to go again. The south orchard is mostly illusion."

Grogek did his best to pout. "Don't give away all our secrets." 

"Besides," Everyone turned to look at Tulani. "I haven't gotten a chance to play."

Elunara raised an eyebrow. "This is rather unusual."

Tulani smiled serenely. "Is it not "play with Elunara" night?"

Elunara reached out and caressed Tulani's cheek. "I would never want you to be uncomfortable." 

"One thing you have taught me is to play with my comfort zones. Maybe tonight, I'm just willing to play with something different." Tulani ran her hand across Elunara's chest and down her breast, cupping it. "You looked like you were having fun." 

"My beautiful girl." Elunara murmured and pressed her lips to Tulani's. 

Reaching down, Tulani pulled up her dress and tugged it over her head, tossing it to the side. 

Grogek shrugged and removed his own clothes. Scrambling to not be left out, Jordan divested himself of his clothes. Elunara had several pieces of furniture built, but this time the men opted for chairs out of the way, while Elunara leaned back on the strange sloped couch. Tulani climbed on top of her and propped herself up on her knees and elbows. 

"Come on, my little lovely." Elunara wrapped her arms around Tulani and pulled her down. She slid her hands down Tulani's back and cupped her ass. One hand slid center and Elunara slipped her fingers through Tulani's wetness. "I have a feeling you've been watching us." 

"With great interest. I find myself equally turned on by you servicing the men, as you do me." Tulani pressed her lips to Elunara's, licking and nipping along. She enjoyed the sensation that mating her lips with Elunara's brought out. She slipped her fingers into Elunara and enjoyed the fleeing of her lover's body. 

"My Lovely," Elunara panted. "Bring yourself up to me." 

Tulani shifted and got on her hands and knees. She crawled forward until her center hovered above Elunara's face, and then she sat up. 

"That's my girl." Elunara purred, slipping her fingers into the blue slick folds. Using one hand, she teased Tulani's nipple, with the other she buried her fingers into Tulani's warmth. Elunara ran her tongue in and out, tasting the warm liquid. Tulani found herself using one hand to tease the freed nipple, and the other to play with Elunara's.

Grogek was sitting to one side; hand on his already sticky cock. He got Jordan's attention and then nodded at Elunara's propped up leg. Jordan's eyebrows rose. Grogek nodded. "You or me..." He grunted. 

Jordan moved to the strange couch thing and found his way between Elunara's legs. He buried his face in her slick folds. She gasped in surprise, and grinned as she continued to work her way in and out of Tulani. She pulled her hand back from Tulani's breast and used the fingers of both hands to tease and torment Tulani's thighs and folds. When at last the Draenei woman began her shivers, Elunara gave in to the torment that Jordan was giving her. He moved out of the way, as Tulani crawled back down Elunara's body to cuddle with her. 

"You always finish me, but I didn't finish you." Tulani pouted.

"Don't worry my lovely, Jordan helped." She winked. 

Tulani eyed Jordan. "Oh, did he now?" 

"I... uhh." Jordan held up his hands.

Tulani shrugged. "I guess he IS one of us now." 

"Want to see something neat?" Elunara grinned.

"What?"

Elunara reached up and yanked a lever and the bed leveled out. She popped it again and the head and feet collapsed, leaving her crotch exposed and her head laid back. Tulani hopped off of the strange thing. 

"What is THAT?"

"One of a kind sex bench. This sucker can hit all sorts of funky angles and arrangements." She held her head up and laughed. "Anyone willing to give it a go?"

Grogek got up with a grin and went to the head. "You and your fascinating designs."

"You see, this part is designed to line the penis with the mouth, and keep the neck straight, allowing for a more comfortable deep throat." She rubbed his hard dick. "See how it lines up nicely?" She held her head up and pointed. "That end is designed to get the pussy right up to the dick, with nice foot rests in order to have something to prop against." 

Jordan stepped up between her legs. "Strangely clinical, and yet sexy as hell." He ran his hands over her belly.

"The center is designed so that the body is properly supported, allowing complete comfort while being fucked. I even allowed for enough space, so that someone could comfortably prop their legs and knees on either side of the body. To be used as desired." 

Tulani climbed back up and sat on Elunara's stomach. "This IS pretty comfortable."

Elunara grinned. "I hadn't considered a three way, but I guess if the third was a guy, you could have a guy in all three holes at once and it'd still be fairly comfy."

"On the one hand..." Grogek considered. "You think of sex entirely too much to have invented this thing." He laughed. "On the other hand..."

"We should totally try this thing out." Jordan laughed. 




For the Whored Ch. 062



"Well, that's why I showed it to you goofballs." 

"I told you she was insatiable!" Grogek laughed. 

Jordan considered his options, and running his hands up and down Elunara's thighs, pushed himself into her waiting wetness. 

"Mm, Jordan's got the right idea, how about you?" Elunara looked up at Grogek. 

"It is always yours." Grogek grinned. 

She slid her tongue up and down Grogek's dick before sliding her mouth on to him. She helped him adjust into the right position, and he leaned forward and put his hands on the hand holds. He began to slide himself in and out of her mouth. Tulani rocked her hips and rubbed her wetness on Elunara's belly. Bending down, she began to tease and suck on Elunara's nipples and breasts. Jordan couldn't believe the view of Tulani's slick folds as he was fucking Elunara's. 

Between the three of them, Elunara was shivering and shaking all over, thoroughly enjoying the fun her lovers were having with her body. Grogek fucked her mouth, Tulani sucking her breasts and Jordan pumping himself in and out of her. She caressed Grogek's balls, and was sneaky with her attempts to prolong him. Tulani wasn't safe from her roaming fingers, and she had to struggle to keep up with Tulani's bucking. Only Jordan didn't have the assistance of her hands. But she sure was massaging his ass with her feet. 

Tulani gave up first, rolling out of Elunara's reach. It was to everyone's surprise that Tulani crawled over to Jordan and began licking Elunara's clit and folds around his dick. He couldn't last long after that. Only Grogek continued, until Elunara released him. He jerked out of her mouth and exploded on her chest. 

She found herself laughing. "I think the... bed works." 

"What the HELL, woman?" Grogek grunted. 

She giggled. "I'm sorry, I was enjoying myself."

"I figured that out after the second or third time." He rubbed his sore dick.

"What's going on?" Jordan huffed out. 

Grogek pointed at Elunara. "Damned mission specialist and her extension techniques."

"Wait, she was making you take longer?" He goggled. 

Tulani giggled. "Elunara you're awful." 

"This house is crazy." Jordan flopped back and stared at the ceiling.

Tulani got up and leaned down, kissing Jordan on the cheek. "Welcome to the family." She moved to Elunara and kissed her mouth. "That was entertaining. I'm going to bed now." 

Elunara grabbed Tulani by a horn and pulled her down wrapping her arms around the other. "Thank you, Sweetness." She caressed Tulani's face before kissing her slowly and deeply. "It means something to me." Elunara murmured.

"I know. I still say I had fun." Tulani rubbed her cheek on Elunara's chest before climbing up and walking away. She headed upstairs, still naked.

"Uh, does she do that often?" Jordan pointed.

"Join a three some? First time. Participate with me? Extremely rarely and only with Grogek so far. Torment me during? Occasionally. Again, only with Grogek thus far." 

"Ah." He flopped his head back. "This house is still crazy."

Grogek snorted. "Wimp." 

"Don't tell me you're going again." 

"I would, but Elunara had to be mean. Now, I'll be sore for awhile."

"Aw, damn." Elunara pouted, as she cranked the bed back into a couch position. 

Jordan climbed up into a standing position. "Damn, I need something to drink." He stepped over Grogek.

Grogek reached up and whacked Jordan. "Mind the feet."

"Ow, sorry." He winced and found a glass and poured himself some water. 

Elunara ran a finger through the mess on her chest and licked it. "Hmm, I think Jordan's is a little bit sweeter. I wonder why." 

Grogek rolled his eyes and stared at the ceiling. "The shit you notice."



For the Whored Ch. 063



She waited outside the door, curiosity eating at her. She hid out of sight and waited for the door to open. The Orc came out first, but was soon joined by Jordan. 

"You didn't have to smack my ass. I was being careful."

"Not from my end you weren't."

"Sorry, you're just longer than I expected." Jordan turned bright red.

Grogek shrugged. "Have you SEEN me?"

"I saw plenty of you last night." Jordan hunched his shoulders.

"I'm telling you I HEARD them." Cheryl insisted.

"Cheryl... no. just no."

"I don't know, Sara, it just makes sense."

"That Grogek, king of beasts... is making it with Jordan? No. I believe the hook up with Elunara. In fact, I wonder if he's not hooked up with Tulani. I mean, Grogek to Elunara, Elunara to Tulani, and Tulani to Jordan. This makes sense. Grogek and Jordan? No." Sara shook her head. 

"Well, it is a little gross." Sylvia patted her cheek. "But, we've tried for years to find Jordan a girlfriend, and he turns them all down stone cold. The few he HAS tried to date... well, we know how that worked out." Sylvia shook her head. "No, I think Jordan finally found his man." 

"Oh, everyone knows that Jordan has been sweet on Tulani since she got here. Just because she hid in the protection of Elunara doesn't even prove that they've done anything." Sara shook her head. 

"Have you seen them in public? It's nauseating." Cheryl shook her head. 

"And what are you lovely ladies discussing this fine morning?" Gerald smiled. 

"Jordan's affair with Grogek." Cheryl wrinkled her nose. 

Gerald blinked slowly and fluttered his eyelashes. "Run that by me again?"

Later, Jerry and Louis stared at each other and then began to laugh. "Oh, Gods! That's the scariest thing I've ever heard!" laughed Jerry. 

"Well, we've seen how huge Grogek is..." Louis shuddered. "Imagine trying to fit that..."

Gerald shook his head. "You know Elunara's had it there, right?"

"Yeah, but, she like... TRAINED for it." Jerry winced.

"Valid." Gerald shrugged.

"What are you numbskulls gossiping about over here?" Mark snorted.

Gerald jerked his head to the side. "Cheryl believes Grogek and Jordan are... going at it. Claims to have heard a conversation that confirms this."

"Oh Gods, another lunatic." Mark muttered. "Believe me. The only person Grogek wants to stick his dick in, is his wife. And Gods, no one can keep up with her, it's no wonder she took on another lover." 

"Weren't you... recruited, by Grogek one day?" Gerald raised an eyebrow.

"Well, yeah, me and two others, and we aren't really allowed to speak of it." Mark bit his lip.

"That sounds a little suspect."

Mark lowered his voice. "Look, we were given to his wife as...toys. It was the most goddamned amazing thing I have ever been a part of, and I will NOT lose Jenny just to speak of it. OK? Drop it."

Gerald raised an eyebrow. "So it wasn't Grogek who said it was to never be spoken..."

"It was ME claiming it WAS. The other two got shipped out, but all I will tell you is that all three of us, AND Grogek were completely exhausted and she was disappointed we didn't have more to give."

Jerry and Louis stared at each other. Gerald shrugged. "That's about normal for Elunara." 

"This has been a strange day." Jordan rubbed his neck and followed Grogek home. 

"Why so?" 

"I keep getting strange looks, one girl burst into tears, and a few people have giggled." 

"Huh." 

"One man shook my hand and said it "was about damned time"." Jordan shook his head. "Time for what?"

Grogek shrugged. "Hell if I know. I've never learned the ways of this town. I just do what I do."

"Elunara's got a better handle on people, maybe she knows."

"No idea. I have had a few of the trainees just stop and stare at me for no damned reason."

"Weird. Maybe people are coming down with something."

Near home, Jordan stretched and clapped Grogek on the back. "Well, we're two healthy specimens, we should be fine."

Grogek grinned. "Gotta stay in shape to keep the bugs away." He put his arm around Jordan's shoulders. "I know just the way to do it." 

Jordan laughed. "I'm not sure I can keep up with you."

"Might as well try." Grogek shoved Jordan through the door and followed in after.

Cheryl popped her head around the corner. "Believe me now?" She hissed. 

"That doesn't mean a damned thing." Sara sighed. 

"You know, Grogek is actually a pretty cool guy... once you've fucked his wife with him." Jordan shook his head. "That is THE weirdest thing I have ever said, or will ever say, in my life." He sighed.

Renwa laughed. "I know what you mean."

"About weird statements or fucking his wife?" Jordan rolled his eyes.

"I have... as you put it... fucked his wife with him."

Jordan raised an eyebrow. "Why am I not surprised?"

"I've watched him fuck his wife, does that count?" Zelinnia was still absorbed in her work, and it took a few moments for it to sink in. She dropped her head to her desk. 

"I hope she never loses that habit." Renwa laughed. 

"I may not hear myself talk, but I sure as hell hear you." she warned. 

Jordan laughed. "Anyway, I've been having the weirdest couple of days. People have been giggling at me; some man shook my hand and said it was about damned time. I've had three separate women burst into tears; some of the troops are giving me strange glances." He shook his head. "I can't figure it out. It's not over Elunara, or they would have done this a couple of weeks ago."

"What the hell?" Renwa frowned. 

"That's because everyone thinks you're gay." 

Both Renwa and Jordan turned to Zelinnia. "What?"

She blinked at them. "What? I thought this was old hat to you." She shook her head. "Anyway, the rumor has been picked back up, except, you're fucking Grogek, not Elunara." She went back to her paperwork. "They were talking about it at Tippy's. Seems they held out hope that Elunara would get bored of you, that maybe she'd fix whatever hang up you had about females. You and Grogek? That paints a different picture."

"Me? And Grogek?" Jordan shuddered. "Eck."

Zelinnia shrugged. "That's what I said, but I got laughed at. As if I didn't freaking LIVE with Elunara and Grogek. That man has no interest in anything that's not his wife." 

"Don't I know it?" Jordan shook his head.

"I have to ask... did Grogek really smack your ass?" Zelinnia raised an eyebrow.

Jordan flushed. "I kind of... almost stepped on... him." 

"I wish I hadn't asked." Zelinnia sighed.

"I take it someone heard us discussing it." Jordan sighed. 

"I had hoped that was part of the rumor." 

"Damn, Jordan, you get yourself into the strangest situations." 

Jordan's hand went to his healing face. "I guess I do." 

"That's looking much better by the way."

"Yeah, Elunara has been using the salve every morning and night." 

"I didn't need to know your personal problems." Renwa made a face.

"Ha. Ha. She won't let me go without it. I guess she's right." He sighed and dropped his hand. "About that too... it seems she's developed a cult following among the healers that were there that night. They seem to be waiting on her to perform another miracle."

"Oh Lords..." Renwa sighed. "That's all we need." 

"Elunara swears to everything that she was not the reason. I remember her calling for me." He shrugged. "But, what I believe on the matter isn't that important. We don't need some priestesses deifying her." 

"She gets in pissy enough moods." Zelinnia grumbled.

Jordan sighed as he made his way down to the training yard. He stood at the edge, just watching for awhile. Gods, the man had a dick like a tree trunk, only Elunara could take that thing on. A shiver of disgust went up his back. 

"What's wrong with you?" 

Jordan almost jumped out of his skin. "Damn it, how do you sneak up on someone? 

Grogek laughed. "You're just out of it, my friend."

"Well, I found out what's wrong with everyone." 

"Hm?"

"They think... you and I are lovers."

Grogek blinked for a moment before exploding in laughter. "That's... that's impressive." He wiped a tear. "Oh, that's a good one. Sorry, little man, you ain't cute enough, nor my wife. But who can tell, eh?" He started laughing again. 

"Har, har, har." Jordan crossed his arms and sighed. "It's not the first time people have assumed I was gay. In fact, Elunara thought I was in love with Renwa."

"I know." Grogek shrugged, and then patted Jordan on the shoulder. "Don't let it get to you. Take Elunara's stance. "You know what you are or aren't. Their thoughts don't even register."

"It's easier for her; she's spent the last thirty years being what she made of herself." Jordan shrugged. "I guess it's easier for some people to assume what they will. It makes them feel better about themselves."

"That's the spirit." Grogek whacked Jordan on his ass and walked away laughing. 

Jordan winced as he rubbed his ass. "I wish he wouldn't do that." 

"Who wouldn't do what?"

"Oh, hey, Elunara. Your annoying husband just whacked me on the ass."

"Should I kiss it better?" She grinned as she rubbed his ass. 

"You should know, I'm apparently gay." He snorted.

She laughed. "Is that a ploy to get me to suck you off and prove you wrong?"

"Ah, fuck it." Jordan grabbed her by the waist and crushed his mouth to hers. 

She purred and wrapped her arms around his neck, matching his mouth. He slid one hand down the back of her pants and cupped her ass, while the other hand went up and for her breast. He pulled her body into his and they melded together. He came up for air with a gasping breath.

"Oh, Jordan, you are in a mood. Care to take it back to the house?"

"Where's the baby?"

"Finister's."

"Then yes." He panted. "I want you, now."

"I know an alley that's closer." 

Jordan looked up and around. "Maybe."

She grabbed him by his breastplate and tugged him into a nearby alley. "This one has proven useful before." She whispered. 

He dislodged his breastplate and took off his gloves. His hands went around her cheeks and he pulled her into his mouth. Their mouths mated together as he pressed her against the building wall, his hands going for her breasts. He teased and rubbed the nipples, cupped the breasts and moved down her body. His hands slipped into her pants and pushed them down, as she tugged him free from his. In one swift movement he was buried in her, while he gripped her ass. He pounded himself in and out, his hand pressed against the wall. She bit his neck and he released with a soft curse. 

She laughed and rubbed her hands on his chest. "Better?"

He buried his face in her shoulder as he tried to tuck himself back into his pants. "You deserve more than a filthy back alley."

She giggled and tugged her pants up. "Sweetheart, you know I like the variety." 

He bent down and picked up his breastplate. She helped him reattach it. "It's been a weird day, baby." He ran his fingers on her cheek.

"Aw, how bout round two back home?"

"I'm greatly considering it." He put his forehead to hers. "Gods, I love you." He whispered. 

"I love you too, honeypot."She kissed him.

He wrinkled his nose. "I call no on that nickname."

"I do too, it's terrible." 

They both giggled. Jordan wrapped his arms around her and sighed. "Why did I take so long to do this?"

"Only care about the past when it's important to your future." She laid a hand on his cheek. "You did it now, and that's all you need."

Slow and gentle, he laid his lips on hers.

Sara pulled her head in the window. "Well, that just negated your claim, Cheryl." 

"Boy, did it." Whispered Sylvia. 

"It's an act." Cheryl snorted.

"For whom?" Sara tossed her hands up. "They didn't know we were watching." 

Sylvia peeked out the window. "Even if that was dirty, the aftermath of it was beautiful." She sighed. 

"I'll get my proof." Cheryl crossed her arms.

Leslia snapped closed the book she just finished and tucked it neatly on the shelf. Nothing. Nothing but pornographic images and tales of a childhood in ruins. Someone like Elunara HAD to have shown glimmers before. She sighed and pulled out the next one. A sound caught her attention and she peered out the door. 

"Well, certainly." Elunara smiled. "I can do a simple portrait, or I could do a full body. I also have ranges from the normal, the glamorous, or you can volunteer for Ina's workbooks."

"I think I'll just go for a basic portrait."

"What was your name again?" 

"Cheryl."

"Alright then, have a seat here, and we'll get started."

The shorter woman sat down in the chair Elunara indicated. "So, you live here with two men."

"And a woman."

"Right. Two men and a woman." She looked around. 

"Try to move as little as possible while I get my initial sketches. Once I've satisfied, we can move to other views and positions."

"Yes, alright." She folded her hands in her lap. "Must get kind of stinky around here, having a pair of big males like you've got."

"They're not monkeys."

"Well, my guys... that is, my husband and my two boys, can really stink up the place."

"How old are your children?"

"Well, Jamus is 18, he'll be joining your General Grogek soon. Tommy's only 8."

"Fascinating age gap."

"It happens." She shrugged. "Awful neat in here."

Elunara shrugged. "We all agreed in the beginning that discipline means cleaning up after yourself. I did so for years as a mission specialist, never leaving anything behind. Grogek is just disciplined to his core. Tulani is very neat and tidy, and Jordan just fell in line.

"Wish I could get my guys to do that." She murmured.

"Well, Grogek will pound some sense into Jamus, and maybe he'll teach his brother." Elunara smiled. 

"I take it Grogek does a fair amount of pounding."

Elunara laughed. "Careful with loaded questions like that, I tend towards a dirty mind."

"Must be difficult... juggling so many balls at once."

Elunara snickered. "Oh, you're killing me." 

"The whole town wants to know how you have a husband, two lovers, a baby, a pet and your businesses. It just seems so insane." Cheryl shook her head.

"To anyone else it would seem that way I suppose." Elunara shrugged. "I have stamina to burn. I've always had stamina to burn. I think I finally reached a point in my life in which I am wholly comfortable. I have a husband who is my world." Elunara placed her hand on her bangle. "A lover who is soft and understanding, a lover who fills out the rest of my needs, a child who is something else, the cub of my long lost companion, and a business that eats any energy I have left. It's brilliant." Her smile reflected the statement.

"And the two men don't butt heads?"

"Ah, but it's early yet." Elunara winked. "I'm sure there will be arguments later on, but right now, we're just feeling each other out." She giggled. "In more ways than one, let me tell you." 

"Do they..." Cheryl rocked her head back and forth. "Enjoy each other's company?"

Elunara raised an eyebrow. And we reached the heart of the matter... "As men are wont to do. They agree on things, so the company is always good. Always nice to have one man heading things, while the other follows up behind, if you know what I mean."

"Uh, yeah. I guess." Her expression said she didn't. "How'd you figure out the sleeping arrangements?"

"Grogek and I share the big bed, Tulani sleeps in her bed beside ours, and Jordan got his own room." 

"You always sleep in that order?"

"I travel between beds as I desire." Elunara shrugged.

"None of the others... travel?"

"Well, we haven't gotten that far, but I assume one of these days Jordan will wind up sharing the big bed with Grogek and I, but aside from that, no. No one other than me and Tulani are EVER to be in Tulani's bed. She always joins up in the other bed. Hers is sacred and she is promised that. Grogek and I... well, it's sacred to its own extent." She shrugged. "Jordan has earned his place in our family, and as such may be allowed into the big bed at some point."

"You have a bizarre arrangement." 

"We make it work." Elunara shrugged. 

"You can't possibly tell me you have the energy to deal with two men."

Elunara sighed. "You're the one on those silly rumors about poor Jordan and Grogek." She shook her head. "Listen, honey, there's nothing like having one man ploughed up your ass while the other one fucks you. Just because you can only handle one, doesn't mean I don't have a preference for as many as I can get my greedy little hands on." She flashed a grin to the pale woman. "Would you like to see my work so far?" 

The woman began to sputter, even as Elunara turned the board around. She froze, and stood up. Walking over, she placed her fingertips on the board. "This is me?"

"I still have more detail to add, but you've got a pretty good face. Nice bone structure. You shouldn't wear your hair in such a severe bun, I bet it's pretty."

"Buh?" 

Elunara shrugged. "If you let me do a full body for Ina's books, I'll have to take the hair down. But, that's up to you. You wanted a simple portrait, so that's what I did. It'll take me a couple of days to get it presentable to you." 

"It's... beautiful." Cheryl shook her head. "How can someone so crass, do something so pretty?" She put her hands on her hips.

Elunara laughed. "Sweetie, I've been called worse things."

Cheryl eyed her. "Did you just call me "sweetie"?" 

"Honeybunch, I call everyone strange things. Nicknames are part of who I am."

"What do you call these people?" Cheryl waved her hand.

"Grogek is My Sugarbear, Tulani is my Sweetness, and... well, I haven't figured out what I call Jordan yet. My usual nicknames don't fit him." She sighed. "He's the newest member to our little family, and he's just trying to find his place right now." 

Cheryl blinked and dropped her arms. "You... love him?"

"I love all of them. Grogek unlocked the door to my heart; Tulani wedged it open and sat there. Jordan got to march right in." Elunara laughed. "I sound adorable. What the hell happened?" She shook her head.

Cheryl sat down on the couch beside Elunara. "I'm sorry. I think I've misjudged you."

Elunara shrugged and started working on the drawing again. "Everyone usually does." She flicked her eyes back and forth, capturing the new expression. "You know, when you relax, you look even better." Elunara hummed as she worked. 

"I... I need to go." Cheryl stood up. 

Elunara closed her board. "Alright. I'll have the portrait to you..." 

Cheryl fled.

Leslia walked out. "Why did you tell her all of that?"

Elunara frowned and snapped her board closed. "Next time, if you wish to use my library, you have to tell me, and flip the sign outside, so I don't surprise someone with an unexpected guest."

"I am sorry. You suggested I read them. I didn't know about the sign."

"Now you do." She popped the board back open and began working on Cheryl's portrait.

"You never answered me."

"I know the best ways to get through to certain types of people. I do not hide who I am, and I have no problem with telling people my most intimate details. The three of my lovers have all taken me as I am, and accept this part of me. I might try to guard Tulani's feelings, but the other two..." Elunara shrugged. 

"You are a strange one."

"Not the first to say that." 

"I am trying to understand you." 

"I'd get back to reading." Elunara shrugged. She had to admit she was more than a little cross with the woman for hiding and spying on a consult. 

"I did not mean to anger you." Leslia bit her lip. "I was unsure of what to do in this situation."

"You're a Night Elf, sneak the hell out." Elunara shook her head. "Just get out. You've pissed me off enough today."

Leslia flushed and bowed her head. "I am sorry." She quietly left.



For the Whored Ch. 064



Elunara put her forehead on Jordan's back. 

"Uh, can I help you?" He tried to look over his shoulder. 

"I just bitched out one of those annoying priestesses and I feel like I kicked a puppy."

Jordan's eyebrow rose. "What'd she do now?"

"Hid in my library while I had a consult. It was just a simple portrait, but it was still rude." 

Jordan shifted and wrapped his arm around her. "Tell Grogek?"

"He's bitching out some new recruits."

"Ah." He shrugged. "But she still violated the trust agreement."

"I'm not sure I ever told them. I didn't expect them to take me up on my offer."

"Baby, they're zealots who think you have some kind of divine power. I'm surprised it took one of them this long."

"Ugh, I know." She wrapped an arm around his waist. "Well, with any luck, people will stop thinking you're gay."

Jordan shuddered. "Renwa I could understand, but Grogek? Ew."

"Oh, so you DO have a crush on Renwa."

"Oh, leave off. Renwa is my best friend. We've worked together for years. It's just more logical than... ew."

"More logical than what?" 

They both looked over at Renwa. 

"And can you two cuddle off shift?"

Elunara raised an eyebrow. "Are you commanding me?"

Renwa sighed. "Forget it." 

She looked at Jordan. "He gave up on me once he learned it was just another challenge."

"Anyway, sir." Jordan dropped his arm, even though Elunara rolled her eyes. "We were discussing the rumor that I... ugh. Did that... with Grogek. It was always a more logical assumption that we... had an involvement."

"Ok, never give me those mental images again, or I will discipline the both of you." 

"Still don't know what to do about my cult, though." Elunara sighed. 

"Elunara, you're always in a pickle of some sort." Renwa sighed.

"Or at least have a pickle in me." She winked.

Renwa laughed. "That reminds me of the day that Zelinnia and I walked in on you, Grogek and Tulani."

Elunara furrowed her brow. "When was this?"

His eyes went wide. "I thought you knew everything. Well, I guess you were a little pre-occupied. You had Tulani on top of you, and Grogek had his face buried in the pair of your crotches..." He demonstrated with his hands.

"Ohhh, I remember that day. I don't recall the both of you walking in though."

"You know how Zel is, she gets embarrassed and it takes a steam train to catch up to her."

"She must keep you on your toes."

"No more than you do, except her mischief is not in public, if she can at all help it." He whacked Jordan on the shoulder. "I haven't decided if I'm envious or relieved that it's you and not me."

"It's a little of both." Jordan flushed. "The... uh, welcome to the family party was a sight to see." He turned to Elunara. "Tulani was a little confusing though."

"Nah, you did well. She's still working on how she wants to participate." Elunara smiled. "Just don't try to stick your dick in her, and everyone gets along." 

Renwa stared at them both, eyes wide. "Tulani got involved?"

"She does from time to time. But, she doesn't like dicks. A finger, your tongue... she's happy."

Renwa sighed. "Ah, damn."

"What are you damning?" Zelinnia cocked her head to the side.

"The mass orgies at my house, want to came by and join some time?"

"Only if I get Tulani." Zelinnia sighed. She smacked her mouth and stomped her foot. Face as red as a beet, she turned and fled.

With a laugh, Renwa sighed and chased after Zelinnia.

Jordan and Elunara looked at each other before breaking into hysterical laughter.

"What's so funny?" Tulani cocked her head to the side and shifted her basket. She had Darguni by one hand and the leash wrapped around her waist.

"Zelinnia embarrassed herself again." 

Jordan bent down and picked up Darguni. 

"Ah." Tulani sighed. "She will never break that habit." 

"It's Renwa's fondest wish that she doesn't." Jordan grinned

"Well, it IS adorable how her entire body flushes like that." Tulani smiled serenely.

"Does it now?" Jordan's eyebrow shot up. 

"Oh, yes, every little part of her." She grinned. "It's very adorable." 

Elunara unwound the leash and scooped up the kitty. "I can't believe you manage all of this at once."

Jordan hefted Darguni on to his shoulders, an act which brought the child much glee. 

They followed Tulani to the house.

Tulani shrugged. "It was you who taught me strength." She yawned. "Though I figured I'd get Darguni down for a nap, and then take one myself. Eloise is pressing over time to get Zelinnia's dress and the wedding party fitted."

"How big is this thing?"

"Well, you and Grogek and I will wear modified versions of our wedding clothes. Jordan and Renwa were not sent formal wear with their new uniforms. We guess Stormwind didn't see fit to do so. Zelinnia's dress of course, and then some of the guards want new uniforms for it." Tulani yawned again. "We've been so busy."

"Do I need to take Darguni from now on?"

"Oh, no. Eloise likes to use him as an excuse to take a break. Though Yoona got loose and destroyed some work."

Elunara winced. "I'll pay for it." 

"I already took it out of your funds."

"Good girl."

Tulani pushed open the door. "But it is Darguni's naptime, so I wanted to get him down. And tie up that nuisance." Tulani eyed Yoona. 

"First thing tomorrow, I will start working her some obedience training into my day. Sabres are considered our friends. She will be a great companion for Darguni."

"Gods, you'd think I fucked his wife or something." Terry rubbed his sore neck.

Roger snorted. "No, he's much nicer to men that have fucked his wife." He stretched out and rubbed his back.

"Wait, men?"

"You're new, but you'll figure it out. Elunara, Grogek's wife is the... leading expert on all sexual encounters. You'd have a harder time finding a man who hasn't done something with that woman."

"You mean like a prostitute?"

Roger cracked Terry across the face. "Say that again and you'll get us BOTH killed."

"Dude, that was a bit harsh." Terry winced and rubbed his face. 

"You haven't lived here. Don't pissed Elunara off, your life depends on it. The last guy got dagger through his skull, and another is the shit cleaner. The one with the scars? She gave those to him, while the entire town watched, and then dumped salt water over his head." 

Terry snorted. "No way."

"Dude, I was there. I watched her shove a pair of knives down on his balls. The healers refused to heal him. That's why he looks the way he does."

"Fucking man hater." Terry winced. 

"Not at all. If you keep her happy, man... she can give you the most amazing experiences..." Roger sighed. "Too bad Steve is sick today, he'd tell you." 

"What else should I know?" 

"General Grogek and General Jordan are both hers. So is the Draenei tailor, Tulani. The four of them live in a house with a half orc baby and a sabre cat." 

"Wait, she's fucking two Generals and whoever else catches her eye?" Terry shook his head. "Ok, it was cute at first, now your bullshit is..." Terry watched in fascination as a Night Elf woman stood at the end of the ring, a sabre cat on a leash. 

Grogek walked over and kissed her. "What's going on my love?"

"We're taking Yoona and Darguni up to the little park they cleared out. I'm going to work with them on obedience training. I'll be there if you need me." 

He wrapped his hands around her waist and devoured her mouth. "I always need you." He whispered as he slid his hands down the back of her pants. "South Orchard?"

She purred. "Sounds like a plan. Remember to tell Jordan if he's allowed to come out or not. I'm always up for fun, but if you want it to remain ours, it will remain ours." 

He shook his head back and forth. "I will give it some consideration and tell both of you before we head out."

"Alright Sugarbear, until then. Meanwhile, why don't you work up an appetite on these whelps?"

"That's what I've been doing." He grinned. 

Jordan showed up, Darguni on his shoulders. Darguni had a little bowl he was happily eating out of. "Sorry, I got him some of that new dessert." 

Elunara kissed him. "You softy." 

Grogek dislodged his hands from Elunara's ass and ran a hand on her cheek. "Jordan? You're aware of South Orchard, correct?"

Jordan turned red. "Yeah."

"You're welcome to join us tonight, if you want. Be aware, there's always a crowd."

Jordan narrowed his eyes. "Maybe I can prove once and for all where my tastes lie."

Elunara laughed. "Oh, Lollipop, you may yet regret that decision."

"I call no on Lollipop." Grogek laughed. "That's just plain awful."

Jordan rolled his eyes. "I agree with the Orc." He snorted. 

Elunara cackled and slid her hand down the front of his pants, brushing him softly. "I figured with as much as I suck on you..."

He shifted uncomfortably. "Ok, that was evil."

Grogek grinned. "We're just going to have to punish her."

Elunara giggled wildly. "I can't wait t see what you plan." She looked around and spotting the man she was after she waved and got his attention. "GERALD!" She waved at him. "SOUTH ORCHARD TONIGHT." She grinned at the now flush Jordan. "You may punish me later." 

Grogek shook his head and wrapped an arm around her waist. "You are insatiable." 

She grabbed a fang and pulled it to her face, kissing him soundly. "That I am, Sugarbear." 

She tugged at Jordan's pants. "Come along now, we have a sabre to train."

"The cub? Or YOU?" Jordan muttered, still trying to get his erection to behave.

Terry turned back to Roger. "Ok, I believe you. What is the south orchard?"

"You sure we should be doing this?" Terry whispered. 

"Keep your voice down, she will flip her ever lovin' lid if she hears us." Roger hissed. They met up with Gerald. "What are the bids tonight?"

"Well, we got our usual list, but today we got a surprise contender." Gerald jerked his thumb. "Seems Jordan is joining in on the fun tonight, boys." 

"Gods." Roger peered over the hill. "That's never happened before."

Gerald shrugged. "That opens a whole new list of biddables. I hear tell that the... "Welcome to the family" party actually included Tulani. Who even knows what THAT means?"

"Tulani?" Terry whispered. 

"Tulani is Elunara's girlfriend/wife. You know; the Draenei tailor. She's what they call a "female set". Set on being with a female. That she joined..." Roger shook his head. "I don't know."

"Ok, button it." Gerald jerked his head. "Bets on the table boys, the show's gonna start soon." 

Jerry and Louis came scrabbling up the hill. 

Gerald raised an eyebrow. "Thought you two quit the game."

Louis flushed, but Jerry answered for him. "Louis has always had a crush on Jordan. So we came to take a peek. No bets."

Gerald shrugged. "Suit yourselves; you're here for opening ceremonies."

"This is completely bizarre." Jordan shook his head. "I don't know why I decided to come down."

Elunara laughed and popped a grape in her mouth. "You still have time to back out."

He shook his head. "It's just a little weird."

Grogek shrugged. "With Elunara, you get used to it, or you find an alternative. You don't even have to be here. Elunara and I usually have plenty of fun on our own."

"Well," Jordan flushed. "I want to do it the once, and then..." He scratched the back of his head. 

Elunara sat up and on all fours, crawled over to Jordan, placing her head on his chest. Grogek grabbed Elunara's hips and tugged her pants halfway down. He slipped the tip of his thumb into her folds. With a gasp, her cheeks went red and she grinned. "You have about five seconds to run or be pulled in."

Jordan let go of a shaky breath. "I was already pulled in." He scooted closer and let her pull off his shirt. She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him, deep and passionate. 

Grogek was using his fingers to play with her wet folds. He buried his face in there, licking and slurping at her insides. Using his fangs he tickled and teased the insides of her legs. 

With a gasp, she released Jordan and tugged at his pants, freeing his hardened dick from the confines. She licked the tip and ran her hand up and down the shaft of him. He groaned and laid back. Sucking on the tip of him, she slipped her hands in his pants and caressed and played with his balls. As Grogek buried his face in her crotch, she took the full of Jordan into her mouth. His hands gripped the soft grass. 

Grogek moved back and got up on his knees before plowing himself deep inside of Elunara. With a groan he began to move in and out, slapping his balls against her front. 

Elunara groaned on Jordan's cock, adjusting her jaw and wrapping her tongue around him. He grabbed at her hair, her ears, and her head. The motion of Grogek pounding into her caused her to rock back and forth, still clenching Jordan. He had a fistful of her hair, but couldn't stop. 

Grogek's fingers dug into her ass, and he pumped her hips on and off of him. Finally, he pulled back so only the tip of him had slid between those soft lips, and he rammed himself in completely. Elunara gasped and clenched, causing Jordan to grab wildly as he came in her mouth. Grogek gave a low chuckle as he continued to pump himself at a lazy pace.

Elunara let go and gasped for air. She swallowed a little and looked back at Grogek. He reached forward and pulled her up. With one hand, he turned her head slowly to his and kissed her. His tongue mated with hers as her hands came up and wrapped around Grogek's neck and head. 

"Only him." Grogek murmured. "He is the only other I will allow." He moved his hands down to her breasts.

Jordan pulled himself up and knelt in front of her moving his hands across her chest, as he waited for Grogek to move his hands. Grogek nodded and moved his hands to Elunara's hips and gently, he bucked against her, sliding in and out. Jordan cupped her breasts and played with the nipples. He tugged and teased at one, while sucking on the other. Elunara shuddered against them. Jordan moved his hand down and played with the lips wrapped around Grogek's dick. Somehow, this didn't bother him. It wasn't him touching another man; it was him teasing Elunara while she had another man. 

Grogek slipped himself out of Elunara and laid her on the ground. She grinned up at him. Jordan moved down, kissing and licking at Elunara's belly, shifting his way through her soft hairs, and finally finding those slick wet folds. He didn't mind the mess in the way, and instead used the wet mess as lubrication of his fingers into her folds. He was content to just play with those beautiful inner lips, kissing and teasing as she wiggled and moaned.

Grogek was still kneeling above her, so she reached up and grabbed his leg. She began to play with his balls, tempting and teasing, sucking on him and feeling his testicles in her mouth. He groaned and leaned forward. She tugged at his dick, rubbing and massaging where she saw fit. His hands came down and held him up as she slipped her mouth over his dick. He groaned and began to play with her tits with his free hand. 

Jordan was quite enjoying sucking the lips and folds of her. He pushed in one finger, and then the second. His own erection was working its way back, seeing Elunara sucking on Grogek. Jordan sifted and cupped Elunara's ass and after a bit of wiggling, was able to bury himself into her. He rocked and bucked his hips against her. At Grogek's telling grunt, Jordan shifted Elunara up, her head still pressed to the ground as Grogek filled her mouth. Jordan bounced Elunara against him and he was able to release himself once more. Jordan let go of her with a little gasp.

Elunara laughed and swallowed, and after sitting up, pulling out the little towel she brought. She cleaned her face off. Jordan laughed and wrapped his arms around her and kissed her, smearing sticky wetness all over her again. Grogek laughed and did the same. 

"Ack! The both of you!" She wiped her face again and tossed them both a towel. 

"Aw. Are we done?" Jordan asked.

"Oh, hell no." She snorted. "I've got to let the both of you recharge for a few minutes, or it won't be as fun." 

Grogek tugged her into his lap. "Doesn't mean we can't play with her while we wait." He slipped a finger into her and licked her neck.

Jordan shrugged. "I can watch for a minute..." He winked. 

Grogek grinned and pumped his finger in and out of Elunara while she gasped and wiggled. Grogek had one arm wrapped around her waist hand on her belly, while the other went through her wet folds. 

"Ah, hell with it." Jordan threw his hands in the air. He fondled Elunara's breasts and slipped his tongue in her mouth. While Grogek had Elunara pinned, he pumped his fingers, licked her neck and scraped his teeth across tender flesh. Jordan knelt in front of her capturing her mouth and making it difficult for her to wiggle against Grogek. Using his hands, he cupped her breasts and teased her nipples. One hand wandered down and joined Grogek's hand in playing with her. Spreading her out and letting them both have fingers in her. She grumbled and groaned, thrashing wildly as she came and made both of their hands a mess. 

When Jordan released her mouth, she gasped. "I guess that was my punishment from earlier." She sighed. 

"You are quite mean when you have a mind to be." Jordan nodded. He kissed her lightly. "That was certainly not something I would have expected to do." He eyed his sticky fingers a minute before licking them. "Enjoyable though." 

"I have one more surprise." Grogek grunted. 

Elunara stretched. With a little eep of shock, she stared at the rope around her wrists. "Oh, really now?"

Grogek tossed the length of rope over the tree branch and secured it. "Really."

Jordan cocked his head to the side. "What, pray tell, is this?" He pointed at the rope.

"Oh, just a little something she enjoys." Grogek put on hand on his hip and pointed up. "The rope keeps her hands occupied. If you're stupid enough to think she can't get out of it, we'll just stop right here."

Jordan held up his hands. "I had no illusion on that."

"Good man." Grogek ran a hand down Elunara's chest and across her stomach. "You see, the idea here... is that our little beauty likes both sides at once. This just makes it easier on the both of us." Grogek shrugged. "You can start in the back; I like to finish with the back." 

Jordan shook his head; still in shock that he was having this conversation. "Well, you got here first; you can do as you please."

"And do wipe your dick with the towel before you return to the front." Elunara motioned her head. "I don't like cross contaminations." 

"Are they seriously discussing her like she's meat on a hook?" Terry whispered. 

"Don't question Elunara." Gerald whispered.

"Oh man." Mark whispered. "THIS, this is the thing the three of us did with her that day." He shivered. "It's the most amazing feeling. I am not lying."

Grogek slipped himself inside of her and began to slide in and out. "There we go." He growled as he ran his hands down her body. He gripped her ass and motioned to Jordan. 

Jordan slipped around behind her and put his dick against her ass. He slowly pushed his way inside. "Oh. Oh, that's... fascinating."

Elunara tugged at the rope. "Oh, praise Elune. I was worried we wouldn't do this again." 

Grogek licked her throat. "My vicious little she-wolf, you need only ask." 

"Wait, you got to do THAT?" Gerald stared. 

Mark nodded. "Grogek had one rule. If you came in her, it had to be the ass, but if you went in the ass, you were done. No crossing. The front was his." Mark groaned. "I'd so go again, but not at risk of my Jenny." 

Jordan clung to Elunara's back. "Sorry, that was a little sudden. We... ahh we hadn't gone for there yet." Jordan flushed. 

"Aww, its ok stickybuns, it happens."




For the Whored Ch. 064



"Ok, that is worse than lollipop. No."

Grogek laughed. "You barely gave me any entertainment. Don't make me take it out on your ass." 

Jordan's expression held complete disgust. "I... would never live that down." He jerked his head to the hill. "How many are over there?"

Elunara laughed. "Yes, twelve men seeing you take one in the ass would never end."

"Twelve? Are you shitting me?"

"We had seventeen one night." 

Jordan shook his head and stared down at his own dick with disgust. He pointed at himself. "You disappoint me, damn it." 

Elunara laughed. "Well, I'm always open for entertainment while you wait."

"How does Grogek keep it going so damned long?" Jordan muttered.

"My wife is a sexual beast. After awhile the thing stops being useful and just stands around on its own. Kind of like lockdown." 

"Wait, you're saying it's not working right now?"

Grogek shrugged. "Not really. I just use the hard on to pleasure my wife until it comes back." 

"I can show you how to train it." She winked. "Though, if you don't start something soon, I'm going home because I'm bored. 

Grogek laughed and ran his hands down her front. "I'm sorry my love, I got distracted."

"It suddenly occurs to me that this conversation is being watched." Jordan sighed. "I should just go home in shame."

"Sugarsauce, if you go home right now, you will never live it down. Your dick is plenty enough to satisfy me and damned tasty if I do say so myself. So why don't you at least come finger me?" She wiggled. "This is mildly uncomfortable while I wait for you to do something." 

Jordan narrowed his eyes. "Oh, it IS, is it?"

She opened her mouth and then quickly closed it.

"Excuse me, "miss gets me horny in the middle of the street and walks off". I've been walking around with a partial hard on all day thinks to your little trick at the training yard. Which, mind you, isn't the first time you've done that to me." 

"I think I hit a nerve." Elunara mumbled to Grogek.

Jordan ran his fingers across her wet folds. "Do you have an idea how many hours I have spent fantasizing over finally getting my hands on you?" He sighed. "Of course, you had no idea, but you'd brush against me, wiggle that ass in my face, or worse..." He plunged two fingers into her. "Just so I could feel this. He slid his other hand across her ass. "Gods, how much I wanted you and couldn't say a damned thing." His wet hand came up to her cheek. "You've been driving me mad for years. Yeah, it took me awhile to figure out what it was, but once I had you that day..." He shook his head. "It was nothing BUT waiting for you to do something, to tell me something, so I could either give up or die trying." 

"Jordan, are you ok?" Elunara frowned. 

He pressed his mouth to hers and wrapped his arms around her body. He slid his hands down her ass and buried his rock hard erection in her front. "I can't stop wanting you." He whispered in a hoarse voice. "Even when I have you, I can't seem to stop." He whimpered. 

With a grin, Grogek pushed himself into Elunara's ass. "Welcome to my world."

She groaned and leaned her head back. "Oh, it's about time." She leaned forward and put her forehead on Jordan's. "I'm sorry; I'll make it up to you."

He licked her neck and grinned. "Oh, you already have, but you're not the only one who can make grand gestures for a crowd." He purred.

She narrowed her eyes and then laughed. "Is it any wonder that I love you, Sugar?"

"Can we just stick with sugar? He can be Sugarbear, I can be sugar, and it will work out and be less confusing."

"Oh, fine." She pressed her mouth to his. 

Grogek chuckled as he slid himself in and out of her ass. "You two amuse me." 

"Well, let's see if we can finish her." Jordan laughed as he pumped his hips in and out. "Damn, we need to do this more often." He groaned. 

"It does somehow make her tighter." 

"I don't care what it does to you idiots, just as long as you fuck me." She groaned. 

Both of them stopped and just look at her.

"Ok, Ok, I'm sorry, please fuck me." 

"Good girl." Jordan laughed. "Why ARE you so damned tight?"

"Years and years of constant exercise. Like this." She tightened all of her pelvic muscles at once and both men grabbed wildly at her body. 

"Gods, don't DO... wait, do that, I liked that." Jordan laughed. 

Elunara sighed. "Men." 

"Can you imagine?"Jerry sighed. "Being in love with some other man's wife? For years?"

Louis sighed. "It's a tragic love story. But, hell, at least it's Elunara, and not someone else. He can have her."

"Yeah, but it's still kind of a bummer." Mark shrugged. 

Gerald laughed. "This is why people need to learn who the real Elunara is, and not who she pretends to be at that moment." 

Everyone turned to look at him.

He shrugged. "I've known her for years. Probably longer than Jordan. I was assigned as her spotter ages ago, when she first joined the SI:7. Unless you have read her books, unless you have spent time with her when she's not being... "The Whore", you don't know who you're dealing with." He stared off at the trio. "I've seen the puzzle of Yogg saron... Elunara makes that look like a crossword puzzle."

"You're in love with her too." Jerry whispered.

"At least I'm realistic about it. You can admire her all day long, but at the end of it, she's just too damned confusing to handle. It takes a man like Grogek to understand her in way that I cannot. Wouldn't matter anyway, I have nothing to offer her."

"Aw, but Jordan thought he didn't."

Gerald shook his head. "I can't make you understand. I'm not going to try." He leaned against his tree and frowned. "Party is packing up. Time to collect your wagers." 

She found him leaning against a tree. "You were loud last night."

Gerald winced. "Damn your hearing." 

"Want to talk about it?"

"Not really."

Elunara sighed. "I can't make you talk." She shrugged and walked away.

"Wait."

She turned around and raised her eyebrow. 

"I'm not Jordan. I'm not pining away in the corner waiting for nothing." 

"What are you, Gerald?"

"A guy with a crush. It's really as childish as that." He sighed and leaned against a tree. "As a spotter, you're tasked with a certain amount of responsibility; namely, don't fall for your task. When they assigned you to me, it was easy enough. Pretty little Night Elf with an odd skill set. I have literally watched you fuck your way through the ranks. I should be turned off by that, but, eh. You have some serious skill, and a damned nice ass, might I add."

She grinned. "Where are you going with this?"

"Well, I thought you were one thing and you turned into another. When you shacked up with Grogek, I was more pissed that I just lost a job and couldn't find my way back to base to get another. Then... I stayed. Didn't know why, still don't care the why. The end result though, is that after all these years; you'd figure we'd at least be friends." He frowned. "That's the part I never figured out."

"Gerald... you are my friend."

"Am I?"

"You are."

"Well, then I pissed you off, and you almost ripped my damned nuts off. That's about the part where I get confused. Cause damned I was aroused, and it made me ignore the part of you that was so damned angry."

"You think we're not friends because of that?" She laughed. "Gerald, I was pissed because what you did was wrong, and you used ME to do it." She shook her head. "I may think little of my body, but that was beyond my limited standards."

He frowned. "I guess you're right. I would have been severely disciplined at the SI:7. You probably went kind on me compared to what they would have done." He relaxed. "I'm sorry, you're right."

"Ya damned skippy I'm right. Gerald, you're my friend. After what I heard the other night, I figured I'd make sure you were ok." She put a hand to his cheek. "Just because I twisted your balls once, justifiably I might add, doesn't mean I will or won't again. You cross a line; I won't hesitate to take you out. Just as I always have. Meanwhile, you're my friend. And, if you have the need to visit me for... other reasons, feel free to come on by." She kissed his cheek and walked away.

He watched her walk away and grinned. Maybe he would.



For the Whored Ch. 065



Jordan groaned and rubbed his face. He looked down at his hand and jumped back. "Ew." He wiped his hand in the wastebasket and stood up. Looking in his mirror he ran his fingers on his face. 

"Oh, you're up." 

He turned and grinned. "It's gone." 

She moved to him and ran her fingers over his scarred cheek. "Yep, no more scab. It looks pretty good actually." She picked up the pot.

"It's gone, I don't need that."

"Sugar, it's going to pinch and twist and get dried. You still have to take care of it for a little while." She began to rub the slave into his scar.

He sighed and put his hands on her hips. "At least you'll still do it for me."

"Of course. I like your face." 

"Ugh, I'm still sore from the other night. Remind me not to do that too often."

She giggled. "You enjoyed it."

"Oh, hell yeah." He laughed. "But my dick hurts." He whimpered.

"It must, you haven't tried to use it on me since." She grinned. "Why don't you take today off, and I'll massage you better."

"I'd take her up on the offer." Grogek nodded. "Her hands are magic in many ways." 

Elunara slipped out from under Jordan's hands and kissed Grogek. "Leaving?"

"Yes." He ran his hands down her ass. "Make sure he gets that massage. See you later." He kissed her and grinned. 

Jordan sighed. "I should probably tell Renwa I'm taking the time.

"We'll get a message to him. Now, lay down on the bed."

"But..."

"Face down; I'll get to there later." 

He had to admit, she was expert in all things body.

She stood up. "I'd say you're done." 

He tugged her back on top of him. "Not quite." He ran a hand through her hair and pulled her face close to his. They mated their mouths together. 

"Mm, I'd say I fixed your...." She sighed at the knock on the door. "Hold on." She climbed down and made her way down the stairs. Opening the door, she blinked. "Oh, Renwa. Sorry, I guess I forgot to send a runner."

Jordan yanked on his pants and made his way to the stairs.

"Ah, Elunara, forgive the intrusion, Zelinnia has managed to lock herself in one of your... contraptions, and locked the door. I can't get her out." He sighed. "You're the only person she wants."

Elunara frowned. "I'm not sure what in the world could have happened." 

Renwa looked up the stairs at Jordan in only his pants. "I only need notification of off days if it affects something important, day to day is your business." Renwa grinned. 

"Sorry, Sugar, we can continue the session later." 

He sighed. "Maybe I should get dressed and go about the day."

She shrugged. "With Zelinnia, this could take five minutes, it could take all day."

"I see the rest of that mess has come off of your face." Renwa smiled.

"Yeah." Jordan rubbed his fingers over the star shaped scar. "I guess this is the best it's going to look." 

Elunara kissed his scar. "It looks kind of cool." She tugged on her shoes. "I'll see you later in the day." 

"He's looking well."

"Now that the rest of that messy scab came off, I'm hoping he'll feel better about himself."

Renwa laughed. "You'll do that on your own."

"I hope so. At least he can't pick at it."

"I don't know what Zelinnia has done to herself. She sounded like she was in tears, but I couldn't get the door open."

"I'll get her out." Elunara sighed. "But what could she possibly be trapped in? Which room?"

"Upper bathroom."

"Huh." Elunara shook her head. "Bathrooms are messy places; I didn't put too much in there." She jogged upstairs and knocked on the door. "Zel? Sweetie? It's me."

"It's just you, right?"

"Renwa's downstairs and he's really worried." 

Zelinnia cracked the door and peeked around. 

"You're not locked in?"

"Just come in." Zelinnia scooted back, hiding behind the door. 

Elunara walked in and froze. She stared at the blood on the floor. 

Zelinnia closed the door and wrapped her arms around Elunara. "I didn't know what to do!" She wailed.

Elunara stared at the blood on Zelinnia's clothes. "Sweetie, what happened? What did you do to yourself?"

"I... I just.." 

"Zelinnia, sweetie, we have to get Ina."

"NO! He'll know!"

"He'll know what? Sweetie, I don't even know what's wrong."

"Oh, Gods. I was... I was pregnant. Ina told me a couple of weeks ago, and I just... I couldn't..."

"Did you do this?" Elunara whispered, remembering her own moment of panic.

Tears streamed down Zelinnia's face. "I hadn't told anybody because I was still trying to figure it out myself... then my stomach started hurting this morning... and I didn't know what to do. I thought maybe I ate something bad. Then the blood came and I just knew... and then it didn't stop." She buried her face into Elunara's shirt and just kept weeping. "It's... It's..." She pointed.

Elunara looked into the mess bucket and winced. There was so mistaking that. She looked around the room. "Oh sweetie, we have to get Ina, I can't help you." She wrapped her arms around the wailing woman. 

"NO!" He can't.... He can't know." 

"He has to know. You can't keep this from him."

"It'll break his heart."

"Sweetie, you're killing him. He's downstairs in a panic and doesn't know how to help you. Let me get Ina."

"Don't leave!" 

Elunara sighed. She reached down and grabbed Zelinnia's dress and ripped out a piece of fabric. She grabbed a tooth brush and dipped the end of it in blood and scribbled a message. Satisfied with her work, Elunara wadded the fabric and tossed it over her shoulder. Sitting down in the floor, she pulled Zelinnia into her lap and waited. 

Ina came charging into Renwa's house. He blinked at the woman and the priestess following behind her. "What's going on?" 

Ina didn't pause, just ran upstairs, priestess in tow. 

"WHAT'S GOING ON?" He screamed and chased after them. 

The priestess blocked the top of the stairs. "Forgive me Admiral; I cannot let you past me."

"What is going on?"

She shook her head. "I don't know. I am told my orders are higher than yours and to not even try it."

He watched in desperation as Ina opened the bathroom door and promptly shut it behind her. 

"Where is it?" Ina asked. 

Zelinnia let out another racking sob and Elunara pointed. 

Ina looked in the seat and sighed. "Further along than I thought." She shook her head. "Can't do anything about that now." She knelt in front of the pair. "I gotta take a look at you."

"Come on Sweetie, you need to turn around. Ina's gotta fix you." Elunara helped shift Zelinnia in her lap so the woman was leaning back against her. 

Ina tugged up the ruined dress and began her examination. 

"It's alright sweetie, I got you." Elunara ran her hands over Zelinnia's face and hair. "I know it hurts, but you just got to work through it. That's my girl."

"Well, there's still some after birth but we'll get that cleaned out. Otherwise, you're actually pretty well intact." Ina sighed. "I'm not going to use that birth control stuff anymore. It's not as reliable as my original stuff. Going to cost me a penny to get it in." She kept talking, trying to distract Zelinnia from the work she was doing. Every time the woman hissed or whispered, Ina felt terrible. It was never easy to lose something you were looking forward to. "But, you'll be fine. Once we get you cleaned up, and you have some recovery, you can try again another time."

"No. I can't do this again." Zelinnia whimpered. "I just can't."

"Oh, yes you can." Elunara stroked Zelinnia's belly. "You can because you want to. Just because this mess happened, doesn't mean you'll have it happen again. Who knows if that mess Ina's been serving isn't exactly responsible for this."

"Good point." Ina nodded. "If it's supposed to clear the belly, then the last dose I gave you might have done this. Don't blame your body." Ina wiped her hands on the ruined dress. "I want to get you into my building."

"No! No! Please." Zelinnia whimpered. 

The door opened and Renwa stood there in complete shock. "WHAT IS GOING ON?" He roared. "Elunara you better answer me!" He pointed at her. 

Zelinnia curled in a ball. "NO! Don't look... don't!" She whimpered. 

"Zelinnia lost the baby." Ina shook her head.

Renwa went sheet white. "What baby?" He whispered. 

"I'm sorry, Ina." Leslia sighed. "He physically picked me up and moved me out of the way." 

Ina frowned at Zelinnia. "You told me you were going to tell him."

"Don't." Zelinnia whimpered. 

Elunara tugged the woman into her lap. "Sweetie, we're beyond all hope now."

Ina wiped her hands on the remains of the dress. "Zelinnia here was pregnant. This morning she lost the baby."

"She barricaded herself in here, because she didn't want you to be upset with her." Elunara sighed. "I had to use my skills to get a message to Ina. 

Renwa knelt down and ran his hand down Zelinnia's hair. "Love of my heart, I don't know why you could possibly think I'd be upset with you." He wrapped his arms around her. "I'm upset that you'd try to keep this from me, instead of just telling me so I could get you help." 

"We need to get her to Ina's building."

"No... they'll see." Zelinnia whimpered. 

Renwa scooped her up. "You're going. I won't lose you, just so you can save face." 

Ina nodded. "As it should be." She turned to the other priestess. "Leslia, can you deal with this mess? Standard blood removal should be enough."

"Right away." Leslia nodded. 

Elunara sighed and climbed up. 

"You are a good friend." Leslia smiled.

"Well, this good friend has to stay with her." Elunara jogged after them. She caught up with Renwa at the door. Zelinnia reached out, and Elunara took her hand. "I'm here, Sweetie."

"It hurts." She whimpered. 

"I know sweetie, I know." 

Jerry frowned. "What happened? Zelinnia?"

Elunara put her hand on Jerry's chest. "I hate to use this one, but believe me, it's none of your business." She shook her head and caught back up, grabbing Zelinnia's hand. 

"They'll know." She whimpered

"Men don't know a damned thing."

Renwa laid Zelinnia on the table and pulled up a chair to her side. He grabbed her hand and put his forehead against it. 

Elunara sighed and ran her fingers across Zelinnia's forehead. "Sweetie, you could have hurt yourself more, by trying to hide." 

"I hurt." Zelinnia whimpered.

"Here, drink this." Ina held up a cup. 

Elunara held up Zelinnia's head as she helped her drink. Zelinnia drifted off and Elunara laid her down. With a sigh, Elunara straightened Zelinnia's clothes and her hair. "Oh, my little darling, you hurt yourself so much."

"Why? Why would she not tell me?"

"Because she wasn't sure it would work, I guess."

"No, not that. I don't care about that!" Renwa laid his head next to Zelinnia's. "She was in trouble and she didn't even come to me. She wanted you."

"She wanted a woman. I'm pretty much the only one she really knows. She didn't want to hurt your feelings by not telling you about the pregnancy. Knowing her strange little mind, she wanted to save face. This was just another embarrassing thing to her. You know how she hides when she feels embarrassed." 

He sighed. "I'm just... hurt." 

Elunara reached over and put her hand on Renwa's shoulder. "She loves you. I know this. The ones that love you always manage to hurt you the most." 

"Alright, I've done what I can. I've stopped the hemorrhaging." Ina wiped her hands. "We're going to do a lay on hands." She nodded to the two priestesses standing by. They approached on either side of Zelinnia, putting their hands on Zelinnia's belly. Ina reached out from between Zelinnia's knees and put her hands on Zelinnia's hips. 

Renwa put a hand on Zelinnia's shoulder and held her hand. 

Elunara sighed and ran her thumb on Zelinnia's temple. Taking Zelinnia's hand, she said a small prayer for Zelinnia's sanity. The priestesses began their right, and Elunara felt the steady stream of healing. She closed her eyes and prayed. 

After a moment, she was aware they had finished. Opening her eyes she became aware that everyone was staring at her, even Renwa.

"What?"

"How did you do that?" Renwa frowned. "I thought your classification was Rogue." 

"Do what?"

"She did it again." Whispered Tia. 

"Wait," Renwa looked back and forth. "Is that the same thing you did to Jordan?"

"I didn't do anything." Elunara shook her head. "Why do you lunatics keep thinking I'm doing a damned thing?"

Ina shook her head. "You know, I haven't sensed anything from you in all these years. Something happened when you lent yourself to Jordan, and I think it's still there." 

"Great." Elunara muttered. 

Zelinnia began to cough and sputter. She looked over at Renwa and began to cry. "I'm so sorry."

"Shhh, shh, it's ok." He wrapped his arms around her. "I'm not mad. Please baby, don't cry." He whispered. 

"I'll go." Elunara lifted her hand, but Zelinnia had a death grip on her wrist. 

"No, don't."

"Alright, I'll stay."

"I felt you." She whispered.

"What?" Chills went up Elunara's spine.

"I don't know." Zelinnia shook her head. "I could hear you telling me that it would be ok." She sniffled. "That Johnathan wouldn't hate me."

"I could never hate you." Renwa buried his face in her neck. "No matter what, I'll always love you." 

"I did say that... err, thought that." She shook her head. "How can you feel me Renwa?"

"My classification may be warrior, but I come from a long line of Paladins. I still have a mild aptitude for it."

The door opened and Leslia stepped in. "The bathroom has been cleansed."

"I'm so sorry." Zelinnia whimpered.

"It's quite alright, we're used to cleaning up such messes. Our main concern is you." Leslia smiled.

"The rites have already been completed." Tia nodded. "Elunara did it again."

"I missed it?" She frowned. 

Elunara yanked at her hair. "This can't be happening." 

Zelinnia wrapped her arms around Elunara. "You saved me again."

"There was nothing to save. You were already going to be fine." She sighed.

"No." Zelinnia shook her head. "You healed my heart. I can't explain it in a way that would make sense, but it's like you took the darkness that had wrapped itself around my head and heart, and you shooed it away. You told it where to shove itself and... it went away." Sniffled. "I still feel horrible, but I don't hate myself anymore."

"Oh." Elunara blinked several times. "I..."

Leslia put a hand on Elunara's shoulder. "Do you believe now?"

Elunara dropped her shoulders and sighed. "You're all crazy." She pushed Zelinnia on to Renwa. "This is crazy." She ran a hand through her hair. "I'm going to let you two have some time to deal with... this." Elunara turned and walked out. Once on the street, she just kept running. 

Jordan watched Elunara go by in a flash and he started running after her. He went to the training yard first and flagged Grogek. 

"What's up?"

"Something's got Elunara freaked out. Any ideas where I should look?" 

Grogek frowned. "Do you remember the clearing where she read those journal pages?"

"Yeah?"

"She goes there. I don't know why, but she likes to think there." He grabbed Jordan's arm. "If I'm needed..."

"Yes, of course."

"And remember, if it's a female problem, or just because, Tulani is at the tailor's."

"Right." Jordan took off running. He remembered this spot well. She was sitting in the spot where she'd slit the throat of Grogek's sister. "Elunara?"

She looked up and ran her fingers through her hair. "Oh, hey Jordan."

"I saw you running. Grogek said I'd find you here."

"Gods, I don't even know why I ran." She sighed and picked up a handful of dirt, letting it run through her fingers. 

"What happened with Zelinnia?"

"She..." Elunara sighed. "She was pregnant, and... she just lost it. There was blood everywhere. The bathroom was a mess." 

"Oh, man. She and Renwa have to be shredded." Jordan sat down beside Elunara and twirled a lock of her hair between his fingers.

"Renwa didn't know. Not until he shoved his way into the bathroom. We took her to the healer's building, where they got her cleaned up, and did a lay on hands."

"She ok?"

"I... I did it again."

Jordan blinked at her. "Did what, Baby?"

"The thing everyone says I did for you. I... did it to Zelinnia. Instead of healing her body, I... she says she heard me. Heard what I was thinking as I prayed for her sanity." Elunara ran her fingers through her hair again. "How could I do something I don't even understand? Even Renwa sensed me with his latent paladin abilities. That's insane."

"And that's what's got you spooked." 

"I wouldn't say spooked." She mumbled.

"Baby, I know you. You wouldn't be hiding out here if you weren't completely freaked out." 

"I'm not..." She sighed. "What is going ON? Once is a fluke, twice is... weird. She repeated my own words back to me. Unlike her, I know I didn't say them out loud." Elunara shook her head. 

"Why does this bother you so much?"

"Because I'm nearly sixty years old. I know that's impossible for your brain to work out, but this should have happened years ago. I've had more extreme circumstances, and not once have I shown an aptitude for this. I know who I am. I've always known what I was, I just got used to being a who. I don't want things to change, because this is who I am and I know what I do."

"So you're afraid of change." He nodded. "Huh. I would not have called you for being afraid of change."

"Oh, don't be so crass."

He laughed. "Didn't someone recently say same to you? Shouldn't you be there for your friend, in this horrible moment of her life, instead of worrying about this gift that has now saved two people you love?" He cocked his head to the side. "Wait, love." He slapped his hand on his knee. "In those times before, you didn't love anyone. You barely loved yourself. Now your heart has been opened, and it was your heart that called to me. Maybe if you'd had love before..."

She jerked up. "Elune save me, you're right."

He stood up and brushed her hair out of her face. "It's a new thing, and that's fine. You'll work it out, because you're you. But, maybe we should be there for Zelinnia first."

"I feel so selfish." Elunara wiped the tears from her face. 

Jordan kissed just below her eyes. "Come on, baby, let's go see how she's doing." 

Elunara linked her hand with his. "Thank you."

"I have my uses." 

Elunara sighed as she knocked on Renwa's door. 

After a few moments, Renwa opened the door. He eyed her. "It's not like you to run off like that." 

"I'm sorry, please forgive me."

"I talked some sense into her." Jordan grinned. 

"Come on. Zelinnia isn't as devastated as she was earlier, but she's still not seeing people. She'll see Elunara though." He backed away so they could enter. 

"What has been said?"

He sighed. "I told people she was injured in an accident. It's as close to true as she'll allow." 

"She loves you, and doesn't want to be a disappointment."

"She loves you too, and was shattered when you took off."

"I'm sorry." Elunara bit her lip.

He closed his eyes and sighed. "I'm sorry, that was cruel. Just... go up."

As Elunara went up the stairs, Jordan glared at Renwa. "I know this is an awful time, but you don't have to take shots at Elunara. She feels stupid enough." 

"What IS her problem?"

"This ability she's demonstrated, it has her terrified. Not just worried, but shit your paints terrified. I don't know what that means. I'm not sure she does either." 

"Zelinnia?" Elunara pushed the bedroom door open. 

Zelinnia was staring out the window, propped up in bed. "Ina says that, even though they healed my body, I should stay in bed for the week if possible."

"I'm sorry I ran away. I don't know what I was thinking." Elunara approached the bed. 

Zelinnia turned to her, tears staining her face. "I guess you pulled a me." 




For the Whored Ch. 065



"Yeah, I guess I did." Elunara sighed as she sat on the bed. "I came back." She wiped Zelinnia's tears with her thumb.

"You know, I have no idea how I've kept it secret the past couple of weeks. I just..." She fiddled with the blanket. "I didn't want to get his hopes up or anything." 

"I know you didn't." 

"I really..." Huge tears rolled down her cheeks. "I really want to have his baby." She gasped in sorrow. "I just want to... have this... cute little baby, like you do. I wouldn't..." She gasped and tried to swallow. "Mind two or three."

Elunara scooted up the bed and wrapped her arms around Zelinnia. "There, there. You can cry all you want." She ran her fingers through Zelinnia's hair. "Ina said you'll be fine. You can try again soon. You just need a little rest to let your body readjust itself."

"How did... how did I keep it a secret?" She sniffled. "I blab everything. All the time." 

"You speak without thinking. This you thought about. You thought about it so much that it dug its way into your mind and hid there, afraid to come out." Elunara rubbed Zelinnia's back. 

"I should have told you, just so I'd had someone to talk to it about." She whimpered.

"Well, there's always Tulani. Both of us would make a great team for you." Elunara held Zelinnia out and smiled at her. "I don't mean in a naughty way. I had a kid, even though I didn't want to. Tulani desperately wants children but can't have them. Together, we understand all sides."

"Why can't Tulani have children?"

Elunara sighed. "Well, when... slavers take a specimen for certain markets... they destroy their ability to reproduce, in order to avoid having to deal with off spring. Other markets want a breeder, as they call them. I'm not getting into all that."

"Oh Gods, that's horrible."

Elunara nodded. "Even if Tulani was willing to use a male to get with child, she couldn't." She shrugged. "That's part of why I went through with the pregnancy. Grogek was playing proud papa from the mention, and I knew that Tulani wanted a baby to mother. I haven't regretted the decision, but you're now the third person who knows this. Not even Renwa or Jordan knows." 

"Oh, wow." 

"There were times when I worried that I would never be able to love the child I bore. But, now he's adorable and I have to make time to take care of him, just because I go crazy if I spend too much time away." 

"I never would have guessed it, looking at you." Zelinnia murmured.

Elunara laughed. "You wouldn't guess a lot of things if you just looked at the surface." Elunara put her hand on Zelinnia's cheek. "Like this skinny little Blood Elf wants to have a baby by that strapping young Human down there. Or that that beefy man wants this scrawny little Blood Elf to be his wife and bear his children." She kissed Zelinnia on the nose. "You two are so goddamned adorable, the hearts float above your head like flies on a cow's ass."

Zelinnia laughed and wiped her nose. "You're awful."

"That man loves you to death, and was destroyed by you being hurt. Next time, be honest about it, and you can feel together. It's easier to bear when you have someone to share it with." 

"You get to talk; you have three of them to share it with."

"I can always make arrangements." Elunara winked. 

"Ugh. No. I'll take my one."

"Good, and when Tulani shows up, as I know she will, let her in." 

"Yeah. I will." She fiddled with her blanket. "Can you just stay awhile? I... don't need anything..."

"Yes you do. You need company." She kissed Zelinnia's forehead. "Let me just tell Jordan and Renwa what you want."

She stepped out of the room and made her way downstairs. "Renwa, you can go up. Jordan, can you go put out the sign that says "Closed for emergency"? Zelinnia doesn't want me to leave. And quietly explain to Tulani that she needs to come over. Don't say why, just that Zelinnia was hurt."

"Sure thing. I'll let Grogek know you're here too."

"Thank you, Sugar." She kissed him before heading upstairs. Nodding to Renwa, Elunara climbed in the bed beside Zelinnia and wrapped her arm around the woman. 

Zelinnia laid her head on Elunara shoulder. "Thank you." 

Elunara rubbed Zelinnia's arm. "I'll be here when you need me."



For the Whored Ch. 066



As far as anyone knew, Zelinnia got hurt in the bathroom. Since a couple of people saw Renwa carry her, covered in blood to the healer's building, it was Tulani who decided that Zelinnia had cut open her leg in a bad way. Talk turned instead, to the rumor of Elunara's mysterious new power, a fact that had her beyond frustrated. 

Tulani sat at the table, sewing a small section of fabric. "I find it quite hilarious that, people say Elunara is a filthy whore, and it makes her giggle. People say Elunara has mysterious healing powers, and she's fit to slice some throats."

"Maybe because one is completely stupid." Elunara muttered. She was trying to concentrate on her sketch, but it wasn't working.

"Well, most people would consider "filthy whore" to be an insult, not an occupation."

"Since when is Elunara "most people"?" Jordan retorted.

"Hm. This is true." Tulani nodded. 

"This is why we love her." Grogek kissed the top of Elunara's head before sitting down.

It was a rare day when they all could eat together, and they were taking it, though Tulani was more focused on finishing the fabric rose. 

"I don't HAVE Elune working through me. I don't HAVE the light within me, and I'm certainly not some unsung messiah. I liked this town better when it was afraid of me." She grumbled. 

Tippy laughed as she put down their plates of food. "Elunara, you are something else."

"If you accuse me of that mess, I WILL bite your hand."

Tippy snorted. "Anyone as grumpy as you can't possibly be the bearer of the light OR Elune." 

"Good woman." Elunara snorted. 

"How many times have you supposedly done it?"

"Twice."

Tippy snorted. "Twice is barely a fart." She shrugged and walked back to the kitchen. 

"Knew I liked her." Elunara drank. 

Zelinnia came in and wandered over. She took a chair at the table. "You're not usually in here. Or all at once."

Elunara shrugged. "It's just one of those random days. How are you feeling?"

"Better. Renwa clucks around me like a mother hen. I think he thinks I'll injure myself again."

Elunara sighed. "It's his job to worry." Elunara reached over and rubbed Zelinnia's hand. 

"Oh, Zelinnia, haven't seen you in a few days. How's the leg?" Tippy wiped her hand on a napkin.

She smiled sadly. "It's fine. Just throbs ever so often." 

"Eh, injuries do that. It'll get your sandwich going."

"Thank you."

"Good gravy, you come in here that often?"

"It's that good of a sandwich." Zelinnia nodded. "Johnathan had them delivered to my room while I was healing."

"Sounds weird." Grogek snorted. "To hear someone not call him Renwa." Grogek tossed down his fork on the empty plate. "I'm heading out." He kissed Elunara and stood up. He dropped a kiss on Tulani's forehead and then, much to everyone's surprise, Zelinnia's head. He pointed at Jordan. "Don't care how handsome you are, I ain't touchin' you." He marched out. 

Everyone at the table burst into laughter. 

"If that wasn't adorable, I don't know what is." Tippy snorted as she placed the sandwich in front of Zelinnia. 

"But why did he kiss me?" Zelinnia blinked. 

Elunara laughed. "Knowing Grogek, he's decided you're mine." She shook her head. "And no, I didn't tell him."

Tulani sighed and tossed the object in her basket. "Dammit, I messed up the fabric."

"Ooh, too bad. Can't fix it?"

"No, it's shredded. I'll have to get a new piece of fabric." Tulani began eating her food. 

"What are you working on?" Zelinnia took a bite of her sandwich. 

"Final touches for the wedding. Its next week, and we're just trying to get everything ready." 

"An I ee?" Zelinnia mumbled over her full mouth.

"Nope." Tulani finished her lunch, grabbing her basket and standing up. She leaned over and kissed Elunara. "Sorry, I need to go back."

"It's fine, sweetness."

"It's my wedding, why can't I see it?"

"Because I ruined it, and I don't have any others with me." Tulani kissed Zelinnia on the cheek. "Be well."

Jordan sat his fork down and stretched. "Ugh, I've got a day to get to. Sorry, Zelinnia." Jordan kissed Elunara. "Later." He walked out whistling.

"At the rate you get kissed, it's a wonder your lips don't bleed." Tippy snorted.

"Care to join the ranks?" Elunara winked.

"Noooo thank you." 

Zelinnia giggled. "Busy day?"

"Not really. I'm just going to work on some overdue portraits." Elunara stretched. "Trying to return to some normalcy. I apparently have a cult following."

Zelinnia snorted and wiped her mouth. "I can't believe how upset you are that people... LIKE you."

"The like me for the wrong damned reason." Elunara sighed and erased a mistake. "It's driving me crazy. I liked it better when people glared at me. The cowering was nice... but I'd rather people be disgusted by my existence, rather than expecting me to perform some stupid miracle."

Zelinnia put a hand over Elunara's. "It was a miracle to me." She whispered. "Who knows...?"

"Don't even go there. You're stronger than you think. You'd have been on your way already."

"No. No I wouldn't. I gave up. I gave up and you pulled me back." 

Elunara snapped her board closed and stood up.

"Where are you going?"

"To settle this." Elunara kissed Zelinnia's cheek and left. 

"Are you in the running for the most kisses in my freaking tavern?" Tippy put her hands on her hips. 

Zelinnia blushed and finished her sandwich. 

"Hey, Elunara!" 

She looked over at Gerald jogging up. "What's up?"

"I... well, I was thinking about taking you up on your offer."

"Oh. I have some free time tomorrow afternoon, bout three." 

"I'll be there." He grinned. He stopped and watched her walk off.

She was in a much better mood when she reached the Healer's building. "Ina!"

The little dwarven woman stuck her head out of a door. "You'll have to wait your turn."

Elunara shrugged and took a seat. 

A few minutes later, Ina came out, wiping her hand on a rag. "What do ye need?"

"Test me."

Ina froze. "What?"

"Just freaking test me. I want to settle this."

Ina sighed. "Fine. You know the drill."

Elunara closed her eyes and focused on the light. 

"As usual, I can't find a thing." 

Elunara opened her eyes. "I knew it!" 

"May I try?"

Elunara frowned at Leslia. "You know what? The entire healing building can try, I don't give a damn." She closed her eyes and waited. 

"But... that can't be right." Leslia frowned. 

Elunara cracked an eye. "I damned well told you." 

"Let us all try at once." Tia smiled.

Elunara closed her eyes and shrugged. "Knock yourselves out." 

"I don't understand." Tia whispered. "All of us should have brought it out." She tapped her chin. "Can you sing for us?"

Elunara blinked. "What?"

"When you sing, you glow. Please, sing for us while we test you."

"Ugh, fine." Elunara closed her eyes and racked her brain. Finding a traditional ballad, she began to sing.

"It's... beautiful."

"What is?" Elunara opened her eyes. 

Ina just stared. "She does glow." 

Elunara rolled her eyes. "Doesn't mean a damned thing."

The door opened and Jerry came in holding his bleeding hand. 

"Oh, Jerry, what did you do to yourself?"

"Training accident, one of the new guys tripped, flung his sword wildly and it sliced through my hand."

Elunara peered at it. "Yeah, he cut you something terrible." She pushed him into the chair she had been sitting in.

Ina examined the hand. "Eh. It'll heal. This one is pretty simple." 

Elunara put her hand on Jerry's shoulder. "Might scar, but you'll be back to whacking off Louis in no time." 

Jerry flushed and held up his other hand. "I kinda use this one anyway."

The three Night Elf priestesses turned interesting shades of red, but Ina, who'd heard it all from Elunara, was unfazed. "Here, let's clean it, and then I'll heal it." She washed a damp rag across the cut and examined it. "Yeah, it's not too deep, shouldn't damage any of the nerves." 

Elunara held her hand on Jerry's shoulder as Ina worked her magic. 

"All done." Ina smacked the back of his hand. "Give us a flex, make sure it healed properly."

Jerry flexed his hand and grinned. "Thanks Ina." Jerry blinked and looked up at Elunara. "Is it true?"

"Is what true?"

"That you have healer abilities."

"Elune save me, don't tell me you're going to start that too?"

"Did you feel her?" Leslia asked.

"Well, no. I felt tingling in my hand, but that's it." 

Ina shook her head. "No, Elunara was not there."

"See?" 

The door burst open and Mark came in, hand over his bleeding belly. "Gods, that bastard should not hold a damned sword."

"Same guy?" Jerry blinked. 

"Grogek is having a field day on his ass." Mark winced as Ina led him to the bed. 

"This one is nasty." Ina sighed. 

"Well, Grogek told him he isn't allowed to use anything sharper than a staff." Mark winced as Ina cleaned his belly.

"I'm headed back down to the yard." Jerry saluted.

"Gods that hurts." 

Elunara leaned down and looked. "Oh man, a centimeter deeper and you wouldn't have made it."

"Aye, I agree." Ina carefully cleaned the wound. "I'm gonna need your help, girls."

"Of course." The others laid their hands on Mark's side and belly.

Mark reached out and grabbed Elunara's hand. "Ah, I hate to be a big baby about this..."

Elunara laughed and held his hand, putting her other hand on his shoulder. "You'll be fine." As the healers worked, Elunara started feeling light headed. She shook her head and blinked. "The hell?"

Mark frowned. "Are YOU ok?" He reached up with his free hand and put a hand to her face. "You don't feel feverish."

"I'm sorry, that was my fault." Leslia sighed. 

Ina glared. "You don't pull that kind of stunt in MY office, you hear me?" 

"I'm sorry. I just... I thought that maybe..."

"Elunara isn't a gifted, and even if she was, you do NOT do those things without permission from her!" Ina jabbed her finger at Leslia. 

"What did she do?" Elunara growled. 

"I... I thought that maybe I could pull the gift out, make you use it again. Instead I... I drained your stamina to heal the wound."

Elunara grabbed Leslia by the front of her dress. "You BITCH!"

Mark sat up with a wince and grabbed Elunara around her shoulders. "I know you're pissed, just don't kill her."

"Oh, I'll do far worse than that."

He slid off the bed, and put himself between Elunara and Leslia. "Elunara, don't make me do this, but you'll have to go through me."

Leslia ran into a back room and slammed the door. 

"I'm sick of that little bitch and her goddamned CULT thinking I'm some worthless prophet!" She shoved Mark. "She freaking USED you to prove a point that didn't even exist!"

"Elunara!" Ina climbed up on the bed and cracked Elunara in the face. "Come to your senses. I know you're pissed, but you will NOT fight in my building!" Ina sniffed. "I will handle MY priestess how I see fit. Now, you need to go home. I haven't even had a chance to make sure Mark healed correctly. Would it make you feel better to accidentally kill him, just because you're pissed off?"

Elunara looked down at the dried blood on Mark's torso. 

"Yeah, this kind of hurts like hell."

Elunara sighed and backed up, pushing Mark back on the healer's bed. "I'm sorry."

He laid back and grabbed her hand again.

Ina looked down and began to examine the area. "We did not complete the ritual. That might have made it worse." She sighed. "I need all of us."

Elunara laid a hand on Mark's stomach as she sat down beside him. "You may take from me. Asking first would have been helpful." She ground out. "Because I don't mind offering my stamina to help a friend." 

"Good." Ina nodded. "Let's begin." 

Elunara closed her eyes and focused on opening herself to Ina, and to helping heal the wound. Mark's hand tightened on hers and she returned the pressure. This time, when Ina leeched off of her, she didn't feel dizzy, she felt... important. Opening her eyes, she watched the last of the cut turn into a thin pink line before sealing completely.

"Ok," Mark breathed. "That was cool."

"Yeah," Elunara ran her hand over the lightly scarred area. "Healing is kind of cool to watch."

"No." He shook his head and laid back. "I... felt you. I can't explain it. I felt you reach out."

Elunara jerked her hands back. 

Mark reached out for her hand. "No, please. I want... I want to feel it a bit longer." 

She stood up and backed away. "No. No, this is not happening."

"Elunara..." Ina cautioned. "Don't pull a Zelinnia and run away again." 

Elunara yanked at her hair. "Why does this keep happening?"

"Near as I can figure, it only comes out when you want give yourself to that person." Ina shook her head. "Jordan died. Dead as a doornail, there was no recovering his spirit. You went in and dragged it back. When Zelinnia was lost... you went in and dragged her back. When your temper almost cost Mark, you wanted to give yourself to fix it. You have a powerful connection." Ina tapped her chin. "I won't lie to you, Jordan came by a few days ago with a theory, and I'm going to agree with him. You never had love before. You never had a love for anyone back then. Not even yourself. Now you know love, know how to love. I suspect we have Grogek to thank for that one." 

Mark half laughed. "Does that mean she loves me too?"

Ina shrugged. "No one but Elunara knows what's in her heart, but I suspect that friendship is a love that she didn't have then either."

"I never had a friend before Grogek." Elunara whispered. "Once Grogek was my friend, I was able to trace things back, and discovered I had a few friends. I just needed the definition first." 

Ina nodded. "Exactly." 

"I have a totally off base question." Mark winced a bit as he sat up. "The last time at South orchard, Gerald made... some odd statements."

"Yes, I heard him." Elunara sighed. "No, I'm not adding him to the fold. Gerald thought I hated him because of the day I got pissed off and almost ripped his nuts off. We cleared things. He's my friend too. That's what he was being weird about." 

Mark let out a breath. "Gods, I was feeling guilty about our little... thing"

Elunara laughed. "No. Don't worry about that. He just couldn't believe we weren't friends after everything." She shrugged. "We worked it out. He'll be back to running the games next time."

Mark laughed. "You really did try to rip his nuts off?"

"Little bastard was cheating the games. Ripped about a thousand gold off of some newcomers. I don't tolerate that shit."

"Ok, yeah, I could see you being pissed about that."

"I have seen more testicle related injuries out of you, than any other reason." Ina sighed. 

"Well, most of the time it's because the idiots want a little harsher play. I try to treat all my clients with respect, because I rather like when they come back. But if they piss me off, or want to try something a little rougher... eh. Most of the time they do it to themselves."

"You are strange." Whispered Tia.

"Sweetie, I have two main loves, dicks and drawing. Drawing dicks all the better. That's been my life. I draw the dicks, I fuck the dicks." 

Mark snorted. "You're so eloquent." 

"Speaking of which, you haven't been back. I take it things are going well with Jenny?"

"She's so perfect that, some days I'm afraid to do anything that might make her leave. I haven't exactly told her...

"Told me what?" Jenny was standing in the doorway, looking frantic.

Elunara shrugged. "That he was one of my clients before." 

"He... I..." She shook her head. "I was told he was hurt."

Ina shook her head. "The healing went well, the wound closed up nicely. You're going to hurt for a few days, but nothing to do about that. 

"Oh, thank the light." Jenny wrapped her arms around his neck. "I was so worried all the way over here."

"Mark here was just telling us about little miss perfect angel, and how he's afraid you'd leave him, simply because he... made use of my services." 

"Oh." Jenny furrowed her brow. "But, you brought us together. So, I don't mind." 

"See? Problem solved." Elunara patted Mark's leg. 

"Elunara also leant her life energy to help heal him." Tia smiled. 

Jenny stared at Elunara before going around the bed and hugging her. 

"Oh. Please, don't. It was... he's just a friend." 

"You're the nicest person I know." 

Elunara groaned. "I still liked it better when people shunned me." 

"I don't understand why." Jenny dropped her arms and frowned. She reached out and took Mark's hand. "You saved me from my brother, gave me a wonderful boyfriend, and then saved his life. Why wouldn't you want to be liked?" 

"Because I spent thirty years of my life being completely reviled and disliked; that is something I understand. People liking me and expecting nice things out of me? That I don't get."

"Why? How could they not like you?"

"You're so sweet and innocent." Elunara sighed. "Listen, do you understand what I do?"

"You... you're an artist and... you have sex with men?"

Elunara laughed and sat down in the chair. "I am indeed an artist. I draw people and I do portraits. I also ask them to strip down while I do accurate renditions of their bodies for Ina's book project. After I've got the basics, I do in-depth discoveries of their bodies using my fingers. Once I am satisfied with accuracy, I'll ask them if they wish to continue further. From there, I follow along with what they desire and I make sure they have a good time." She shrugged. 

Ina shrugged and dragged Tia and Nona out with her.

"That's just one portion. The other portion has gotten a little interesting. People come to me with their sexual problems and desires. Some of the men I usually have some fun with, but women and couples are usually asking me for ways to spice up their sex lives. I help show them, maybe even help them perform it. I've been inventing tools and useful items in these endeavors. I understand the body and how to get the best reactions and get the most enjoyment out of it. Your Mark benefitted from one of these lessons, but I have a feeling, he's been so timid with you, that you haven't enjoyed the full range."

Jenny blushed. "I'm not... well, I mean... we've..."

Elunara put her hands on the woman's shoulders. "Breathe. I've heard it all."

"She's still a virgin." Mark blushed. "I mean, we've gotten..."

"He's put his fingers there." Jenny whispered.

Elunara stifled a giggle. "Waiting for marriage?"

"I haven't decided." Jenny blushed and put her hands in her lap.

"Sweetie, you've got to commit to one idea or the other. You're just going to leave poor Mark with the bluest balls in town."

"I don't know what that means."

"Think of it this way, when a guy gets hard, his dick and balls fill with fluid. If he doesn't release, that fluid deflates a little, but it will eventually back up and it can get kin of painful. I'm going to assume that Mark is going off and finishing himself, which is helpful, but can get frustrating. You tell him now that you want to save the big finish for the wedding night, and he can prep for that. Else wise, you're just being frustrating." Elunara shook her head. "Mark's too damned in love with you to tell you that. He's also so worried about disappointing you that he hasn't come to me either. Not that I'm telling him to, or telling you to let him. YOU have to decide what you want and own it. You have the power here, because Mark damned well gave it to you." 

"Oh." Jenny put her hands to her face. "Oh, I'm sorry."

"Don't apologize to me, I'm not the one you're driving crazy. Listen, you don't have to decide right this minute, but you need to decide two things and then TELL him. The first is, are you saving yourself for marriage? The second would be if you're not, does it bother you for him to see me? I don't give a damn either way. You can tell him that you want to wait for marriage, and you don't want him to come visit me, and not only will he do exactly as you say, I won't bother him about it. In fact, unless he knocks on my door and asks for a schedule, I'm not touching him anyway. I don't have to hunt down clients." Elunara stood up. 




For the Whored Ch. 066



"Wait!" Jenny grabbed her hand. 

Elunara blinked. "What?" 

"Can... can I come over?" Jenny fidgeted. "And talk to you alone?"

Elunara shrugged. "As long as you always observe the sign on my door." She put her hand on Mark's shoulder. "Be well."



For the Whored Ch. 067



Elunara made her way down to the training yard and found Grogek standing to the side, seething.

"How's Mark?" 

"Doing better, we managed to heal his belly, and then I had a lovely chat with his girlfriend, who apparently can't decide if she wants to wait for marriage or not, giving Mark a good case of blue ball."

"Oof, tough." He frowned. "We?"

"Yeah, I'll explain later, but I lent my energy to helping heal the wound. A centimeter deeper and he'd be dead."

"I knew I shouldn't let him walk on his own." Grogek spit. "Save me from idiots."

"Hey, he made it just fine. So, which one is the moron?"

"Blue guy with a staff. Nikal." 

"Ugh, his form is pathetic." 

"He's from here, rescued from slavers. Wants to know how to fight in case they come again."

"Figures." She kissed his cheek. "You'll whip him into shape in no time." 

He ran his hand down her ass. "I'm just going to keep him away from sharp things until I have more confidence in him."

"Ina would appreciate it." 

Without warning, Grogek shot his hand out and caught the staff mere inches from Elunara's face. "Or, I might refuse him ALL weapons..." Grogek muttered.

"Dude!" Someone yelled. "You almost took out Grogek's wife!"

Nikal dropped to his knees and started bowing. "Please, please don't kill me." 

Elunara sighed. "Let me talk to him." She took the staff out of Grogek's hand and walked over to the groveling Nikal. "Get up." 

Nikal stood on shaky legs. "Please..."

"Show me your hands."

"What?"

"Palms up, let me see." 

He held his hands out and winced.

She ran her hands over his palms and considered. She jammed the staff into the ground and carefully inspected his fingers and palms. "What did they do to you?" she murmured. "I haven't seen this kind of damage in years..."

"I... I got caught stealing food for the others. They made me stick my hands on coals. Every time I was caught, they..."

"Come with me." She grabbed him by the wrist. "I'm borrowing this." Elunara saluted Grogek and kept moving.

"He is... your husband?"

"Yes." 

"He is a rather large orc." 

"People keep telling me that." She stopped by the leather worker's building. "Hey, Sam. I need a favor." 

"Sure, Elunara, what's up?"

"I need a pair of gloves, soft inside, outside for grips. For this guy." She sat Nikal in a chair. "Sam's going to measure your hands." She looked up. "I'll probably need a couple of pairs. Make one a tight fit, the other a lose fit, Ina will probably want to bind his hands."

Sam considered as he measured. "Yeah, I agree. Let her get some salve on those and then we'll fit him another time."

"You keep nearly killing everyone because your hands have no grip. They're burned smooth. The gloves will give you a grip. I also suspect you might have some nerve damage, making it difficult to clamp your hands properly. We'll work on that."

"I'll have to make buckles at the wrist." Sam nodded. 

"Charge the buckles to me."

"Can do." Sam nodded. "Got what I need."

"Good." She grabbed Nikal by the wrist again. "Follow." 

"You are very kind."

"People keep telling me that." She pushed open the door to the healer's building. "Ina!"

"Ina isn't here."

Elunara sighed. "Gods, it's always you. Look, just get Ina's burn salve. He needs some for his hands."

Leslia peered at the hands. "How long ago was this?"

Nikal shifted uncomfortably. 

"Slavers. He needs after care." 

"Alright." 

Grogek opened the door. "I assume you discovered something I didn't see?"

Elunara held up one of the Draenei's hands. "They have no grip to them."

He ran his fingers across the palm. "Here I just thought he was exceptionally clumsy." 

"You and I both know where assumptions have gotten us." 

Leslia stooped down and began to rub the salve into the man's palms. "This should help make your hands soft and aid in the healing of new tissue. We'll have to bandage your hands."

"I've got the leatherworker making him some gloves."

"Yes, that will do nicely." She smiled back at the Draenei. "I'll wrap your hands. Come back in the morning and we'll change out your bandages." 

"Yes." He murmured. "Yes I will." He smiled at Leslia. "You are very beautiful."

She smiled back. "Just keep returning in the morning so that we can get you back in the training yard." 

"I'd keep to the staff." Elunara nodded. "At least until we're more certain how his injuries will heal." Elunara led the way back to the leatherworker. And Grogek continued on. "Hey, Sam. He's bandaged up."

"Sure, let me see if my calculations are right." He considered. "Yeah, these will work. I'll have them to you in about an hour more."

"Sure thing, just bring them down to training."

"Can do." 

"I owe you so much." 

Elunara shrugged. "No more than anyone else in this town." 

"You are too kind..." Nikal trailed off and stared at the Draenei woman holding a basket.

"Hey, Tulani." 

"Oh, there you are." Tulani pressed her lips to Elunara's mouth. 

Nikal stared, completely dumbstruck. 

"Oh, hello." Tulani smiled. 

"I was just taking him back to the training yard. He's one of the slaver rescues that Grogek's taken on training."

Tulani gave him a sad smile. "Oh, I was taken by slavers too. Elunara rescued me." Tulani laid her head on the Night Elf's chest. "She is very kind; don't let her make you think otherwise."

Elunara laughed and wrapped her arms around Tulani. "You're warm. You've been busy haven't you?"

"Yes, your dress has been redesigned and refitted; Eloise would like you to try it on before the ceremony in a couple of days."

"Ceremony?"

"Oh, Admiral Renwa is getting married. I'm the Maid of honor, Tulani is the bridesmaid and General Grogek and General Jordan will be groomsmen. Well, Jordan is best man." Elunara shook her head. "It's all a little overwhelming." 

"Darguni had the cutest outfit." Tulani giggled.

"Where is he?"

"Last I saw, Eloise was trying to wrestle it on to him."

"That'll be a sight to see." Elunara kissed Tulani. "I'll be up there in a bit to try it on." 

"Alright. Well, I have some projects that I want to take home." 

"Tippy said she was sending a pot of soup home." 

"Oh, lovely."

"Who was that vision?" Nikal breathed. 

"My wife." 

He froze. "What? But, I thought Grogek was your husband."

"Both are true." Elunara shrugged. "General Jordan is also my lover. We all live together."

"I do not understand."

"You'll come to, eventually." She raised her hands. "Everyone usually does." 

"You have a wife, a husband and a lover?"

"Also a baby and a rapidly growing sabre cat. Details, details." She laughed. "Even if Tulani wasn't mine, she's not interested in men. Don't even try."

"How do you find time for all of that?"

"I also run two of my own businesses. One that is a portrait studio, the other is sexual healing. I don't have enough time left in the day to even explain that one."

"My goodness." 

"You should volunteer for the book project I've been working on. I draw you as you are, then I have you strip naked so I can draw your entire body. I do in-depth drawings and find every little thing about you and put it in Ina's healer book, so that if you're sick or injured, she can look at the book and determine what's different. It has been very helpful in identifying the remains of those who have been killed in action."

"That is fascinating."

"Oh, don't look so terrified. Ask any of the men, they'll tell you I'm amazing. If you don't want to be... touched in that way, then you tell me. I try to satisfy all requests." 

"Does any of your other... family participate?"

"No. They don't even try." 

He couldn't decide if he should be disappointed or relieved. He thought of that gorgeous Draenei he saw earlier.

"If anyone would even try..." Elunara continued. "It would be Grogek. But since I brought Jordan in the picture, Grogek hasn't harassed any of my clients."

Nikal crashed back to reality. "You mean, he used to?"

"Oh, from time to time, he found it amusing to come in during a session. If I was sucking someone off, he's slip in behind me. Or other things. It made them nervous, and some didn't come back. Now that Jordan lives with us, we can all satisfy that carnal desire to share my body with each other. I even made a fascinating couch with levers and everything that make some of those positions so much more fun." Elunara giggled. "Why did I tell you that already?" She shrugged. "Anyway, have fun training." He shoved him forward. 

Grogek gave her a slide glance. "I know that look, what did you do?"

"Our newest recruit has the hots for Tulani. You know I had to traumatize him."

Grogek watched Nikal. "He better not try anything. I'll keep my eye on him."

"Yeah, I'll let her know to be aware. However, he might just be a harmless flirt. He was flirting with Leslia too." 

"I'd push that one, maybe he could get her off your ass."

Elunara grabbed him by the fang and pulled his face to hers. "I do enjoy when we think alike." Pressing her mouth to his, she wrapped her arms around his neck.

He slid his hands into her pants and squeezed her ass. 

"I leave you two alone for a minute, and I get left out." 

Elunara laughed and grabbed Jordan by his shirt and kissed him too. 

He slipped a hand under her shirt. "Yeah, insatiable is the right word for you."

Elunara cackled wildly. 

"Good Gods, you three." 

Everyone looked over at Gerald. "I can kiss you too, if you feel left out."

"No thank you, I can maintain some dignity around here."

"Pfft, who needs dignity?"

"Apparently, all of you." 

Jordan jumped backwards and straightened his spine. Grogek and Elunara just looked over.

"Seriously," Renwa sighed. "I just can't rely on you three to lead by example."

Grogek snorted. "I lead just fine, thank you."  He did pull his hands out of Elunara's pants anyway. 

"Elunara gets involved, and suddenly everyone loses their minds... and their pants." Renwa raised an eyebrow. "In any event, I've heard that Elunara has had another... happening."

She dropped her arms and sighed. "Mark got cut open and I offered my energy." She shook her head. "It's starting to freak me out."

"Well, maybe some good will come of it." 

"Speaking of good, ready for your wedding in three days?" Elunara grinned. 

Renwa sighed. "It's taking too long to get here."

"I have no idea how Ina finds the time to plan these things."

"Probably the same way you find time for... everything you manage to do." Renwa grinned.

"Ok, you got me there." Elunara stepped between Renwa and Jordan. "Hey, while I have you both here..." She pointed to the Draenei. "Nikal there has the hots for Tulani. You know me, I did my best to discourage... but he didn't seem to be listening."

Jordan sighed. "Grand."

"However, he was also flirting with Leslia, so... maybe he's just like that. I'm going to be watching him."

Renwa put a hand on Elunara's shoulder. "We'll keep Tulani safe."

Elunara flipped through the pages on her board and put them in their proper order on her shelf. She stuck more paper and fresh pencils in the board and laid it on her couch. She opened the door and flipped her sign. "Right on time." 

"Yeah, I know how you are."

Elunara smirked. "Well, you know lots about me, but it occurs to me that I never learned much about you." 

Gerald grinned. "Not much to know."

"Sit. I'll start on a fresh portrait, and you can tell me more." She grinned. "You know how I work."

He sat in the chair and leaned back, propping his arm over the back of the chair. "Fine, I was orphaned at a pretty young age; the Horde attacks took most of my family and friends. I found my way to Stormwind. I managed to pick the pocket of Mathias... he told me I had something better. Trained me from there." 

"I never knew that. I'm sorry." She continued to sketch. He was actually kind of handsome with that cocky look to him. 

He shrugged. "Eh, it's ok. Like you, I've had plenty of time to accept things." 

"Fifteen years is a long time to work together, especially in our line of work."

"Eighteen, and yeah." 

"You'd figure I'd have learned that about you by now." She frowned. 

"Well, I've learned that you have a beautiful ass." He laughed, but only she would have heard the nerves behind it.

She grinned at him. "Changing the subject I see."

"What? It's true."

"I'm not going to bite this time. I promise." She smiled. "Shirt please."

He laughed nervously as he took off his shirt. "Yeah, well. You can be vicious when you want to be." 

She put her board to the side and walked over. Putting her hands on his shoulders, she slid her fingers down his arms as she bent over in front of him. Her fingers hooked in the top of his pants. "Trust me." She whispered. "Trust me and I'll show you what I can do." 

"Alright." He whispered back. 

She walked back to her board and bent to pick it up. She looked back at him and grinned before sitting down. 

He shivered, but it wasn't the cold. 

She went through the standard routine with him, letting him sit in the chair as she continued to work. He'd gotten a few new scars, but all minor stuff. She'd have to put it together with her previous work. She had him stand, and inspected him thoroughly in her usual way. By time she finished with her work, he was practically shaking. She put her board to the side and ran her fingertips on his chest. 

"Now," She breathed. "What would work for you?" 

"Can I touch you?" He whispered. 

"Yes." 

He reached out and put his hands on her hips, sliding them back. He tugged her forward and slid his hands down her ass, his fingers cupping the cheeks. He shuddered and groaned. "Gods your ass drives me crazy." 

"I'm sensing a theme here." She grinned. 

"I don't even know why." He shook his head. 

"You know, I think I have the perfect thing for you..." She pulled herself free and went to her couch. She pulled a couple of levers on it to get the height she wanted, and then unclipped different parts.

He was curious despite himself. "The hell is that?"

"I call it a fuck couch. I have the whole thing rigged to set it up for my comfort and others, while I... have my fun." She grinned back at him. "And one more..." The slats fell into place. She pulled her pants off and climbed in comfortably. "See, my feet are propped comfortably, my arms lay in it like so, my torso is comfortably cushioned, and my ass is in the air. Perfect for rear entry, and ass play." She winked. "Care to give it a go?"

"Damn, would I!" He reached out and rubbed his hands on her ass. "Can I?"

She grinned as she looked over her shoulder. "My recommendation is get yourself nice and slick in my pussy, and then you can have a go at my ass." She eyed him. "Don't worry, you're not as big as Grogek, you'll be fine."

"Feh, I've seen that tree trunk he wields." He rubbed her ass as he stepped up on the ledge. With one hand, he gripped her hip, and the other he moved to her slick folds. "Gods, you're soft." He pressed a pair of fingers inside. With a shuddering breath, he spread her lips apart and pressed himself inside. "Elunara..." he groaned as he slid himself in and out. His fingers dug into her hips and he wrapped an arm around her waist, his fingers sliding through that slick warmth. 

She moaned softly and wiggled against him. His face pressed against her neck. "Are you coated?" She whispered. "Because you can shift up now." 

He straightened up and slid out of her. She wasn't kidding, he was drenched with her. He stepped up on the next spot and rubbed his dick against her ass. Pressing in, he groaned. His hands gripped her ass as he slid into her. "Shit, yes." He groaned, missing the irony of his statement. He slid in and out. 

"Give it some go, Gerald, it's difficult to hurt me." 

He began to pick up his pace. "If I..." He panted. "Could find a woman..." He groaned as he slammed into her ass. "With an ass half as good as yours..." With a shudder he released and dug his fingers into the flesh of her ass. "I'd marry her on the spot." He stood there, enjoying the flex of her around him. When he could tolerate it no more, he pulled himself lose of her.

"Is that so?" Elunara grinned at him.

"I have no idea why I just told you that." He flopped down in the chair. 

"People tell me all sorts of things they don't even want to admit to themselves." She grinned. "I haven't found out why that is, yet."

"Which is why you've always been the best agent. You told us what they didn't want told." He shook himself. She laughed and started clipping her couch back together. 

"That thing is bizarre but effective." Gerald shook his head.

"Hey, I'm an engineering scribe. I design things." She shrugged and yanked the lever. The whole thing popped back together. "Also a pair of traits that helped me in the field." She giggled. After cleaning herself off, she tossed the towel in the bin and pulled her pants on. 

"I've been to a lot of whores..." He shook his head. "You're just something else."

"Most of them are where they are because of poor circumstances. I am where I am, because I want to be. They usually see selling themselves, or giving themselves as a means to survive. Capture the affection of a rich one, and your life is made for you. Me? I always saw it as a means to get what I want, but not monetarily. I fuck because I get bored. I don't need to figure out where my next meal is." She shrugged. "I'm not a whore, I'm THE whore. There's a distinction. I knew it early." 

She considered him. "Most have left, or at least yanked on their pants by now." 

He leaned forward and put his elbows on his knees. "Maybe I am just a little bit in love with you. Nothing for it, I guess."

"I'll keep my eyes peeled for a girl with a nice ass who wants it played with." With a grin, she pat his shoulder. 

"Hey, you think that's possible?"

"If we were in Stormwind, I could recommend a couple of girls already." She shrugged. "Round here..." She tapped a finger to her chin. "Maybe... Hmm."

He ran his fingers through his hair. "That'd be pretty sweet."

"Honeychild, anything is possible. Now yank on your pants, I have another client in fifteen minutes."

"Do you fuck all of your clients?"

"No. Now, get."

He laughed as he pulled on his pants. That little session was going to keep him going for the next year.



For the Whored Ch. 068



The town looked amazing, as it always did when Ina planned a wedding. The entire town was in the center, waiting for the bride to walk down the aisle. 

The bride in question was in Elunara's house, having a major panic attack. 

"Oh Gods, why did I agree to this? I'm going to trip and bust my face and then I'll have to get married with a bloody face."

Elunara rolled her eyes. "I love how your mind works."

"It's going to be a disaster, I just know it. Something is going to go wrong."

"Then get your ass out there and make it go wrong so I can get to fixing it."

Tulani giggled. "I love how both of your minds work."

Elunara grabbed Zelinnia by the shoulders. "Is your dress perfect?"

"It's the most amazing thing I've ever seen."

"Is your hair perfect?"

"Well, I guess so."

"Is the groom perfect?"

"Well, I haven't seen him in his outfit yet."

"No, you dimbulb, is HE perfect?"

"Absolutely."

"Then get the hell out there and marry him already. No matter the trauma you inflict on yourself, it will ALWAYS be perfect because of the man you marry, now get your ass out there before I fling you over my shoulder!"

"But..."

"Would you stop worrying that man? I will bring him into my own harem if you don't steal him away."

"Hey!" 

Elunara pushed Zelinnia out the door. "NOW, Zelinnia." 

"Alright, alright. " Zelinnia started stomping towards the center of town.

A gunshot had them both ducking. 

"Johnathan." Zelinnia whispered, before she yanked up the hem of her dress and ran. 

The town was turning around in a panic, as there were gunshots and noises of fighting outside the town perimeter. Zelinnia ran through the crowd, collapsing into Renwa's arms. "What's going on?" 

"I'm not sure." He looked around and frowned. "It sounds like outside fighting..."

"YOU!!!!" 

Everyone froze and turned towards the newcomer's yell. 

Standing in the center of town, a human woman with wild blonde hair, stood beside a large brown orc. She was covered in war paint and her clothes were tattered bits. 

Grogek's eyes went wide. "Charnak! Brother! What is the meaning of this?"

Elunara looked up. "Brother?" 

"You are no brother of MINE!" Charnak roared. "Look at what they've done to you." He sneered. 

"Who is THAT?" Grogek pointed. 

"I found this... woman, living in the wilds. She told me of how there was a brown orc in this town, tamed by a Night Elf creature."

"Is that Kathleen?" Zelinnia stared.

"I made it to your "wedding" after all!" Kathleen sneered as she held up a spear. 

Grogek took off his ceremonial garb and passed it to Tulani. He marched forward. "What are you doing here?" 

"With the information given to me by this woman, I am taking this weak little town, and taking it in the name of the Warsong!" 

"Kathleen, you nutter!" Zelinnia yelled. "You can't have him!"

"I DON'T WANT YOUR FILTHY GENERAL!"

"THAT'S ADMIRAL, YOU BITCH!" Zelinnia lobbed a fireball at Kathleen. 

Charnak stepped in the way and took the blast without a flinch. "Your attacks are weak." 

"TO ARMS!" Yelled Renwa. 

"TO ARMS!" Bellowed Grogek. 

Soldiers jumped up, and many ran for their weapons. 

"I need my axe." Grogek growled.

"Oh, damn, I forgot to tell you."

Grogek frowned at Elunara. "What?"

"I've enchanted your axe like I did my dagger. It was a little bit of effort, but you can reach your hand out like this..." She flexed her hand and the dagger appeared. "Same deal."

Grogek flexed his hand and grinned. "Now, that's amazing."

"It only works when it's in the cabinet. Later, I'll finish the enchantment to your actual hand. It requires tattooing with special ink." She shook her head. "I'll explain it then." 

"Cute trick with the axe." Charnak growled. He grabbed Kathleen up and leapt on the back of a great grey wolf and charged out.

"COWARD!" Grogek yelled. 

"That's a trap." Elunara sighed. 

"And yet, we have to meet it." 

"I know." 

"Elunara."

"Yes, Mrs. Finister?"

"I have the baby and the cat; I'll go to your house and set up the safeguards like you showed me."

"Good woman." Elunara patted her arm. "Keep my baby safe." 

"Grogek, give me your hand." 

He held out his hand in confusion. Elunara grabbed it and, using her dagger, craved a design into his hand. She put her hand over his and prayed.

"What?"

She looked at the pale pink marks and nodded. "Your axe is now bound to your hand. Should you lose it, just flex. I'll do the tattoo another time, this will work for now." 

He stared at his hand and then nodded to her. "Get the villagers safe, and then join me in battle."

"Can't keep me away." After Grogek ran away, Elunara began directing people. Admiral Renwa took over as she made his way to her. 

"Elunara, talk sense into my soon to be wife..." Renwa sighed. 

"That BITCH ruined my wedding!" 

"Zelinnia, get your head out of your ass and go to my house. I NEED you to protect Mrs. Finister and my baby. Tulani will be there, but she can only heal. You're the only one with actual battle experience. Someone breaks in, you start shoving fireballs up their ass."

"Right!" Zelinnia hiked up her skirts and started running.

Renwa put a hand on her arm. "Thank you."

Elunara shrugged. "Know what buttons to push to get the result you want." She looked around at the mess. "So much for the perfect day." 

"Sir!" Jerry rushed in. "We're surrounded on all sides; no one can get in or out. We've had numerous casualties around the perimeter. However, the main forces are all to one side. Their leader paces up and down the ranks, as if he's waiting for something."

"What he's waiting for, is Grogek's foot up his ass." Elunara snorted. 

"They snuck in, knew where some of the guards were stationed, took them out. Now they wait on the edges, trying to take out anyone they reasonably can." 

"Grogek!"

"I heard. Let's do this right." 

While they planned, Elunara helped get people into their homes, and directed the injured to Ina's healers. Once Grogek and Jordan headed out with their men, Elunara followed along beside them.

"What's going on?"

"We need to take down Charnak, bring him down and the rest scatter. He showed up in town just to show off. We have no idea how much Kathleen affects his judgment." 

"She's looking pretty rough." 

"And as unstable as ever." 

"Unless he fell in love with her, she doesn't have the training or the intelligence to control a behemoth like Charnak. Our two main options, take her out quick, and he goes wild and stupid; or take her out, he laughs and we're no different than before. The final option is to just ignore her."

"I plan on ignoring her. She's not worth my time." 

"I'm fine with this. I'll take her out nice and quiet after he's distracted by you. We need his information line cut off. I won't risk her coming back again." 

They reached the outskirts of town and stepped forward. The men Grogek had ordered for came out of the streets and collected behind Grogek. 

"HOW THE MIGHTY HAVE FALLEN!" Charnak roared in laughter. "You were hand chosen by Grommash himself to lead his armies, and look at you now, leading a bunch of insects that slipped through the dark gates!"

"Says the man led by a wild woman with no home of her own. How long did you have fun with the bitch before you decided she might have something interesting to say?"

"You want to speak of being led around by bitches, yet there you stand with yours."

"My WIFE is a warrior she-wolf, stronger than the finest men in your entire camp! We shall see who is superior!"

"BRING ME THEIR HEADS!" Charnak cried.

Both armies went for each other. Grogek began slicing down his combatants while Elunara jumped and leapt, bringing dagger down in shoulders and necks. She disappeared in the chaos and snuck towards Kathleen. Elunara snuck up behind the woman and grabbed her by the hair. Kathleen yelped and struggled. 

"HEY ASSHOLE!" She screamed. "I HAVE YOUR BITCH!"

"KILL HER! I don't give a damn! I got what I wanted!" Charnak bellowed in laughter. 

"No!" Kathleen screamed. "No! You can't! You can't!"

With a shrug, Elunara slit Kathleen's throat and dropped her to the ground. "Thanks!" Elunara called. "I've been wanting that kill!"

Charnak laughed. "I see why you like this one!" He called.

Grogek made his way through the enemies, cutting them down one right after another. He finally met Charnak in the center. 

"Brother, don't do this. Join us! You see my men are destroying yours. Together we could raise an army of miraculous proportions." 

Charnak continued to attack Grogek as they spoke. "Bah, I won't cow down to these tiny weaklings. I know all about your little "Family". When I get through with you I'll rip apart your wife, and I'll tear this town down one by one until I find your mewling little brat and the slut that cares for him. I think I'll keep her alive for awhile, just to play with."

"Brother, you follow the words of a deranged woman. Don't let her words poison you."

"That little gutter trash? She was barely worth the effort of getting hard for." He laughed. "It was only during her incessant screaming that she mentioned you. At your name, I just had to learn more. Her tune changed, but the song was unimportant." 

"I can't believe you're so pathetic. I wonder, have all Warsong become this disgusting, or am I only just becoming aware of it?"

Elunara started making her way down through the throng of fighters, helping bring down tougher opponents along the way. As she cleared one soldier to fight, another would find himself overwhelmed and she'd work her way over, always keeping half an eye on Grogek. The stream of Warsong warriors seemed endless, but she knew it had to have a limit somewhere. She spied an axe thrower. 

"GROGEK LEFT FLANK!" She yelled. 

He dodged the axe, but she had missed the archer, and the arrow sang true. It jammed into Grogek's shoulder. He roared in pain. He was struck in the side by another warrior, and several more advanced on him, their blows weakening him.

"NO!" She screamed. She took off running, dodging arrows and axes. In some cases she had to jump over angry wolves. Soon the onslaught of attackers felled Grogek to his knees. "NO! NO! NO! NO!" Screamed, over and over, as she watched helplessly. 

"FINALLY!" Charnak roared. He cleaved downward and took out Grogek.

"NNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" She screamed at the top of her lungs, the shrill sound piercing everyone's ears.

Somewhere in town, Renwa fell to his knees. Tulani began to weep, as she took off running through the house. Not stopping to think, Tulani began to run for the battle.

Elunara continued to scream as she ran. Many dropped to the ground holding their ears. She slashed wildly, taking down every orc in her path. She reached the clearing and dove on top of Charnak. He couldn't fight her off as she rained down the blows of her fists, the cuts of her blades. She ripped him to pieces, but kept him alive as she completely paralyzed his body. Her anger was raw and fierce as she turned to the remaining orcs and began to make her wrath known to all who had landed a blow on the body of her beloved. She continued to rage and scream even as the Orcs began to scramble away in fear and terror. 

Tulani body slammed Elunara into the ground. "Stop! You have to stop! 

Charnak struggled to move his limbs, and found that he could not. He turned his head and watched in horrified fascination as this Night Elf creature tore through the rest of his men, only to be stopped by a flash of blue.

Elunara struggled to get free of the tangle of limbs. She finally realized who she was fighting. She stopped and shuddered. "Tulani?" She whimpered. 

"They've left. They've run. Please stop fighting."

Elunara crawled over to Grogek. She pushed him over and wrapped her arms around his body. "Oh, my love. My sweet love." She whimpered.

The men ran through town, calling for all of the healers to come save Grogek. In some cases, the stronger men simply scooped up a healer and ran with them to the site. 

Charnak watched, completely fascinated by the commotion. 

"Please." Begged Elunara. "Please save my husband. Please." She whimpered. 

"Elunara..." Leslia put her hand on Elunara's shoulder. "I don't think we can."

"TRY!" She screamed. "GODDAMNIT, YOU WILL FUCKING TRY!" 

"Please." Tulani looked around. "Please, we have to try." 

"Aye. We will do our best." Ina went to her knees and laid her hands on Grogek's body. 

One by one the healers laid their hands on Grogek.

"OFFER YOUR ENERGY!" Elunara cried; her face covered in blood and tears.

All around, the men began to put their hands on the shoulder of the nearest healer. Each person who claimed loyalty to Grogek or Elunara began to join together. Charnak could only watch as a pattern of arms and bodies connected around him. Ina and the other healers began to cast their strongest resurrections. 

Elunara wrapped her arms around Grogek's neck and she prayed. Her heart ripped to pieces and her anger knew no bounds. She had avenged her lover, only to have him dead in her arms. Well, she wasn't fucking having it. She began to scream. She screamed and screamed as she poured her entire body and life into Grogek. She couldn't live without him, she didn't know how. They couldn't take him. Elune help her, she didn't give a shit what the fates wanted, and they weren't taking HIM. She would go there herself and drag him back if she had to. 

What she did not feel, yet everyone saw, was the glowing presence. It started down below her; a ring of light so bright it was near blinding. A tendril of light came forth, followed by another, and another. Soon her whole body was covered in lighted tendrils. The tendrils reached out and wrapped around Grogek. Still the healer's channeled, afraid to stop. A beacon of light showered down and both were pulled into the air. Elunara's arms clung to Grogek as her whole body filled with this light that she channeled into him. Her hair flew about her head, and her eyes and mouth glowed brightly as she screamed and screamed. 

No one could be sure, as the Night Elves believed the essence of Elune reached up and filled her, and those that believed in the Light believed it poured from her. Still others saw the Naaru offering their assistance. It continued on and on in an endless circles until at last the light let go. The tendrils sunk back into the earth and the beam returned the sky. They both came to rest on the ground. Elunara knelt, and Grogek's head was in her lap. At last the spell was complete. 

Grogek groaned as his eyelids fluttered. "What?"

Elunara cried in joy as she wrapped her arms around his neck. "I did it." She whispered. 

As they began to realize what happened, everyone cheered. Runners went through to tell everyone what had occurred.

"That..." Charnak gasped.

Everyone looked over at him. Men raised their swords.

Elunara glared. "I kept you alive, so that I could kill you slowly." She growled.

"No. Please." He struggled. "That was... that was beautiful. Tell me how you did it."

"Did you..." Grogek gasped, his body was still in pain. "Did you do another miracle?"

"Oh, Sugarbear." Elunara put her forehead to his. "You died. I saved you."

"I guess... I can stop... being jealous of Jordan." He laughed. 

Elunara sighed. "Have Charnak taken to holding. The points I attacked will take while to release, he's harmless for now." 

"Come now; let's get Grogek to the healer building." 

Elunara stood up and wrapped her arms around Tulani. "Thank you."

"I'll go tell Zelinnia what has happened." 

Elunara stayed with Grogek and refused to let go of his hand while the healers tended to his deep wounds. 

Jordan came in, followed shortly by Zelinnia and Renwa. 

"I heard what happened." Jordan put his hand on Grogek's shoulder. "How you feelin', big guy?"

Grogek groaned. "From what the healers say, I'm going to have way better scars than you." 

"Dammit, and I tried SO hard."

"What happened?" Renwa also put his hand on Grogek and the other on Elunara. Zelinnia threw herself at Elunara. 

"He..." Elunara whimpered. 

"It was amazing." 

Everyone looked back at Mark.

"They... they surrounded Grogek and... well, he died." Mark straightened his back. "They got a few lucky shots off and Charnak went for the kill. Elunara just started screaming and the sound of it was painful. She just started cutting them down like grass, and then she dove on Charnak, and after she was through with him, she just went for every last one of them. Tulani sacked her to the ground. It was then that Elunara used that... ability and started screaming at the healers. It was... it was beautiful. She brought him back." 

Renwa and Jordan just stared at each other before looking down at Elunara, tears streaming down her face.

"Oh, Gods, Elunara! I'm so sorry." Tears streamed down Zelinnia's face. "I'm so glad you could save him. That must have been awful."

"What should we do with the Orc in our hold?" Renwa frowned.

"I'll deal with him." Elunara growled. "But first, I think we have a wedding to finish."

"Oh, but we can't, you're hurt." Zelinnia gasped

"Fuck that. We were supposed to have a wedding today, I'm not going to miss it." Grogek groaned. He sat up and pushed himself off the bed. He smacked away the hand of one of the priestess. "I'll live." He turned to Renwa. "Gather the men and the town, MY orders. I'm the dead guy; they have to honor my last wishes before I died."

Renwa laughed. "Right away, then."

Elunara grinned at Grogek. "Sentimental fool. Was that really your last wish?" She murmured.

Grogek brushed his fingers across her cheek. "My love, my vicious little she wolf, soul of my life, my only thoughts were of you and my child." He shrugged. "If I had time to worry about it, I would have not wanted to miss the wedding of my best friend." He grinned.

"Come on you goofball, we have a wedding to catch."

They were all tattered and torn and a little worse for wear, but the wedding was reassembled, with Elunara escorting Zelinnia down the aisle, and Grogek standing at Renwa's side. Despite the difficulties, it was a beautiful wedding. Zelinnia and Renwa said their vows and exchanged kisses. Renwa scooped Zelinnia up into his arms. And everyone cheered and threw handfuls of flowers. 

Before they could party, Elunara wanted to deal with their captive. Grogek, Renwa and Jordan all followed her down to the hold. She walked into the cell and, using pressure points, released him. While he groaned and stretched his limbs, she closed the jail door. 

He shook himself like a dog and sat down on the bench. He held his head. 

"You have a lot to answer for, asshole." Elunara flicked her hand and held her dagger. "You see, you almost robbed me of the most important thing in my life, and I swear to Elune that I will rip your goddamned throat out if you don't tell me what I want to hear."

He looked up in awe. "I have seen you. You are a vicious warrior goddess. I laughed when he called you a she-wolf, but now I understand. I have never seen such ruthlessness. It would be my greatest honor to be felled by a woman like you." He slid down on his knees, a fist in the dirt, and a fist to his heart. "If you will spare me, I will swear fealty to you. You, the goddess of war and rage." He looked up. "Then... then I have no idea what you did, you but COMMANDED the spirits themselves, and they LISTENED! What creature are you, that you can do such miracles?" He shook his head. "No, your judgment is my honor to fulfill." He looked to Grogek. "Brother, I see your wisdom now. I see..." He held up his cupped hands. "A miracle."

Elunara narrowed her eyes. Flexing her hand, she released her dagger. "Chain him, four men on him at all times. You can START by cleaning up your mess. Your kind you will strip of anything valuable, and dump their bodies in a pyre we will designate. Our fallen warriors you will treat with respect and bring them to town center. After that, I'll figure out if I care to keep you... as a pet."




For the Whored Ch. 068



She turned and marched outside. 

"Is this a good idea?" Asked Jordan.

"An honorable death is mercy, a slave is humiliation." Grogek shrugged.

"I'll figure..." For Elunara, the world went black.



For the Whored Ch. 069



"What happened to her?" Grogek held Elunara's still cold hand. 

She was still breathing, but most of her body had gone cold, and only her chest held any warmth. The healers wrapped her in blankets and put warmed bottles around her. Tulani kept her hands on Elunara's forehead. Zelinnia was helping to warm the water and blankets.

"This is what it's like for Elunara to reach the end of her stamina. She used So much of it to kill all of those men and bring you back. It's a wonder she didn't pass out before them." Leslia sighed. 

"Sheer damned adrenaline." Ina shrugged. "By time she got to town that's all she was running on. When she finally let herself relax, it gave up. I'm not sure how long it will take for her to..."

Elunara groaned. She wanted to put her hand to her head, but it was so damned heavy. A hand came up and brushed her face. She looked at a blurry brown form. "Grogek?"

"I'm here, my love." 

"I am too." Tulani rubbed her hand across Elunara's forehead. 

"I..." Elunara sighed and relaxed her body. "I spoke to them."

"Them?" 

"I... I don't understand." She mumbled. "Elune and... the light. I think there was a Naaru? None of it made since. I even spoke to some spirits. It was like... every time I spoke, they turned into something else."

Everyone just stared. 

"She... they... I don't know. Elune told me, that... she'd always been there. That she couldn't help me until I opened myself. She LIKED me. Gods, I don't understand any of it." Elunara closed her eyes and fell into a deep, dreamless sleep.

Elunara groaned and rolled over. With a frown, she stared at the sheet. Looking above her head, she could see her pictures. She was home in her bed. She sat up and stared. The entire room had been filled with flowers and trinkets. "What the hell?"

Grogek entered the room and sighed. "Of course you'd wake up the moment I had to take a leak." 

"What's all this?" 

"The town is quite concerned with your recovery. Hold on one moment." He ducked back out and Elunara heard him say: "She's awake." 

He walked back in and laid his hand on her forehead. "You're warm."

"I don't feel sick."

"You've been cold. Just so damned cold for the past week. We weren't sure..."

"A week?"

"Zelinnia ran in and bolted into the bed, wrapping her arms around Elunara's waist. Tulani was in shortly after, climbing in the bed and wrapping her arms around Elunara's back. 

Jordan jogged in and sighed. "I need to run faster, there's no room for me." 

Grogek side stepped. "There's a spot right there."

With a grin, Jordan slid on to the bed and laid his head on Elunara's unoccupied shoulder.

"Everyone will be so pleased to know you're alright." Grogek grinned. 

"Where's Darguni?"

"I have him." 

Everyone looked over to Renwa carrying Darguni. He walked over and placed him in her lap. Elunara wrapped her arms around her baby and sighed. 

"Things are kind of jumbled."

"Well, first you decimated an army of orcs." Said Jordan.

"Then you brought me back from the dead." Said Grogek.

"Then you made the wedding work." Said Zelinnia. 

"Then you made a slave of the orc war leader." Renwa laughed.

"Then you passed out, and communed with Elune and the light." Tulani brushed Elunara's hair out her face.

"I remember... most of it." She shook her head. "Ok, I'm really fuzzy on the army thing, I just remember being desperate to bring you back, the wedding was lovely, that asshole better have done what I told him, and... ok you lost me."

Tulani sighed. "I was worried about that. You woke up and told us that Elune had spoken to you, that the incarnations of the various beliefs showed themselves to you. You said that she couldn't help you until you opened yourself." 

"Nope. Don't remember that one." 

"Oh well." Jordan kissed her cheek. "You're alive, and I praise every one of them." 

"We all do." Grogek grinned. He kissed her. "You tried to sacrifice yourself to bring me back. That much I know for sure." He brushed his thumb on her cheek.

"You gave us all a good scare." Renwa laughed. 

"I guess I should tell you..." Zelinnia flushed. 

"What, sweetie?"

"I'm pregnant again." She grinned.

Elunara reached down and pulled Zelinnia up. "I'm so glad for you!" She hugged her. "Gods, you all need to let me get out of bed. My legs are killing me."

Grogek looked to Tulani.

"I agree. She needs to get out of bed."

Everyone shifted and allowed her to stand up. She climbed out of bed and stretched. She went to her closet and dug out some clothes and yanked them on.

"What does it say; that none of us are surprised to see a naked Elunara?" Renwa chuckled. 

Elunara grinned at him. "That I love every damned one of you?" 

"I should mention... Charnak refuses to do anything. He did what you told him, and now he waits for your next order." Renwa rolled his eyes. 

"Oh, goody." 

"He claims that he will only take orders from "The Goddess of War and Mercy."

"Oh, he's elaborating now." She snagged her board and frowned. "I would have preferred to prep the wedding pictures from memory. I'll get to it."

"We have some other artists who'd be glad to share their impressions."

"Might be useful." She emptied her board and refilled it. 

"What are you doing, love?" 

"I'm prepping to have a little conversation with our newest "guest"."

Grogek laughed. "You're not even properly recovered and you want to get back to work."

"You know me, I don't sit well."

Tulani laughed and wrapped her arms around Elunara. "I think you're recovered enough."

Elunara turned and wrapped her arms around Tulani. "Thank you."

"You practice what you preach, getting back in to it immediately. I will head out, let Eloise know what's going on."

"Good girl."

Renwa hugged Elunara. "I'm glad you're back on your feet. I'm going back to work. Though, if I could ask a favor..."

"Sure."

"Zelinnia doesn't want to ask, because you know how she is..."

"Hey!" 

"But can we borrow Darguni for a little while?"

Elunara laughed. "Yes. I think you two need the practice." 

"Of course we do." He winked. 

Zelinnia threw herself at Elunara again and kissed her on the cheek. "We were so worried." Tears streamed down her face.

Elunara wiped her fingers across Zelinnia's tears. "You're too sweet. Go play with the toddler for a little while. It'll make you wonder why you're doing this." Elunara rubbed Zelinnia's belly. 

Elunara eyed Jordan and Grogek. "Shouldn't you two be doing other stuff?"

They looked at each other. "Well, we have been taking turns watching you." Jordan began. 

"Quite frankly, now that you're awake..." Grogek sighed.

"Neither of us wants to leave your side right now." Jordan finished.

"Oh, fine." She stood on her toes and kissed Grogek, then turned and kissed Jordan. "You can play the big angry bodyguards for now." 

They both grinned at her before slipping their hands down the back of her pants. "Ours." They said at once.

She laughed. "Let me guess, you two have been comparing scars and rez stories."

"Maybe." 

"Men." She scoffed. "Huh." She sighed. "I must not be recovered yet. I'm not the least bit horny."

The men looked at each other and Grogek hefted her over his shoulder. "You're going back to bed."

"Oh, put me down." 

"You not horny, is like saying the sun is blocked out. Something is wrong." Jordan shook his head. 

"That's called a solar eclipse you doofus, and they pass." She sighed. "Look, my body is still tired; my stamina hasn't completely refilled. I guess I've never used so much before. But if I go back to that bed, I'm just going to forgo all sex for the next week, and that's just damaging me. So think carefully of your actions..."

Jordan and Grogek shared another look. "Fine." They said at once. Grogek sat Elunara down. 

"Now, let's go see a prisoner." 

Elunara stepped outside and took a huge breath of fresh air. It was a wonder she didn't cry from it. Elune, she was tired. She was shocked when two sets of arms came around her.

"We were so worried!" 

"You're really ok!"

"Hello Jerry, Hello Louis."

Jerry sniffled. "We've been trying to handle Jordan's duties while he watched you."

"Mark's been handling the training yard with Gerald." Louis almost squeezed the air out of her.

"Gods, both of you. Let go."

"Attention, the both of you." Grogek growled. 

Both men shot straight up, Jerry's head cracked Elunara in the nose. She grabbed her face. 

"Oh, Gods! I'm so sorry!" 

Elunara held her hand out. "Stop. Both of you. Elune save me. Just... go get me a list of the dead, please?"

"Right away!" 

Jordan watched them run off. "I think I've finally figured it out."

"Figured what out?" Elunara rubbed her sore nose.

"You're like a mother to them."

Elunara froze and stared. "Run that by me again?" 

"Well, I've been trying to figure out why they react the way they do when they're around you. I wondered if it was some kind of variant on a crush, but it didn't sit right. Just now, it was like... I don't know... their mother, or something."

Elunara groaned. "Ugh, you're right. Well, that's just a weird sort of incest right there." She headed on to the jail. 

Jordan made a face. "Ew." 

Grogek just laughed. "The way you inspire people is amazing."

"I'm already someone's mother... I don't need to be mother to grown men." 

"Too late." Jordan grinned. 

It took way longer than it should have, as everyone had to stop and say something, including men she had saved as she cut her way through the orcs. She really only remembered running. Killing people? Eh. It was just fuzzy. 

"That reminds me, I need to finish the spell on your hand. Once it heals, it won't work as effectively anymore."

Grogek looked down at his hand. "We can do it later."

"Part of the reason I had the cabinet built and inscribed so heavily, was the intent and purpose of binding the weapon to you, like I did with my dagger. It's been quite handy."

"Hey, I kind of want one of those." Jordan laughed. 

"It's a bit of a complicated magic, but I might be able to whip something up. I've just never seen you commit to a particular weapon."

"Well, I do keep my sword."

She shrugged. "It has to be something you're already pretty attached to. It's difficult to explain."

"So, how were you attached to the dagger?"

"My mother gave it to me." 

Both Grogek and Jordan froze, staring at each other. 

"You've used it all this time..." Jordan trailed off.

"Funny how that works." She said with a grin. "Even after everything, even after she banished me, even after she told me in front of all of Darnassus that she had no daughter, this dagger continued to mean enough to me that the magic worked, even in times of crisis, even when I lay in the dark and hated her, cursing my banishment... it worked."

Grogek laid a hand on her shoulder. "You are strong."

"I'm completely bugfuck nuts, my love. Always remember that." 

They made their way down the stairs into the jails. Charnak was sitting on a bench, leaning back against the wall. He stood up when she entered.

"My Goddess of War and Mercy!" He called.

"The mercy's new." She said mildly. Jordan pulled out a chair for her and then stood at one shoulder. Grogek stood at the other. Elunara popped open the board and pulled out a pencil. "Alright chuckles, let's talk."

"What are you doing?" He put a hand to the bars and tried to peer over her board. 

"One of the many things I do here is to draw people. No matter what I decide to do with your carcass, I'd prefer to have a record of your existence."

"I find it interesting that a woman of your... abilities needs guards."

"These aren't my guards. Grogek here," She jerked her head in his direction. "Is my husband. I'm sure you're well acquainted with him. Jordan here," She jerked her head in his direction. "Is my lover. He keeps me entertained."

"Is that so?" He considered her in a different light. "Fascinating."

"In fact, around here, I'm known as the goddess of sex. What I want? Is mine. You'd be hard pressed to find a man in this town that hasn't given himself over to me."

"You control this town? I knew it." His eyes glittered with interest. "I once believed that mercy was the coward's way out of war. After seeing you on the battlefield, and your fearsome power, I realized that they are two sides of a coin." He narrowed his eyes at Grogek. "And you have tamed this one?"

Grogek began to laugh. "No one tamed Elunara. She is the tamer." He grinned.

"Where is Lama?"

"I slit her throat." Elunara shrugged. "She was worthless to me."

"In front of me, no less." Grogek grinned. "Elunara is the most vicious little she-wolf I have ever met." 

"I do enjoy when you call me that." She said mildly.

Charnak ran his hands on the bars. "I have seen it." He whispered in awe. He eyed her arm with interest. "Whose teeth are those?"

"Lorros." Grogek answered. "He dare defy her will."

"It was quite entertaining to rip them out while he still lived." She shrugged and continued her work.

It wasn't the first hard on Jordan had seen Elunara cause, but it was certainly the most disturbing. 

"Are there many like you?"

"I'm one of a kind, Sugarbutt."

"There are none like Elunara."

"On this world or the next." Jordan shook his head. 

"I did what you bade of me." Charnak nodded. 

"I am told that you refused to follow further instruction."

"These fleas do not command me."

"They work through MY will. To disobey them is to disobey ME. If you want, I'll take the time to point out the ones worthy of conveying my message."

"Yes, Goddess."

"First and foremost, Grogek and Jordan have already proven themselves to me. I will bring others." She snapped her board closed and stood up."

He reached through the bars. "Wait!" 

She smacked his hand. "No. You will wait here, for me to decide what next to do with you." She cocked her head to the side and opened her board back. She tugged free a piece of paper and snapped her board again. She held out the sheet. "Be good, and maybe I'll give you another treat." 

He gingerly took the sheet of paper and turned it over. He gasped at the picture of his likeness and sat on the floor, just studying it.

Once they were outside, Jordan just laughed. "You know how to work people."

"Hmm, yes, by making herself the leader, she appealed to what he already believed. He calls her goddess, and she sold it to him."

"Time to tell Renwa what I did." She sighed.

"Ma'am?"

They looked at the guard.

"That was pretty damned funny."

Elunara grinned. "You should see me when I try."



For the Whored Ch. 070



Renwa laughed and shook his head. "The things you do, Elunara." With a sigh he looked over to Zelinnia playing with Darguni. "What is your plan with him?"

"My standard... extract every piece of information I can get, then slit his throat and dump him in a pit. He's useful to us right now because he knows things that Grogek does not. He's been cooped up here far too long and not been allow to get out and get us information."

"At this point, I wouldn't leave the town unguarded." Grogek nodded. "He can tell me trade routes, the lay of the land, or any number of things."

"Well, this goddess thing can be used in our favor. There isn't a man who was out there that day that doesn't speak of it in revered awe. I've heard things from Banshee, to Warrior Queen to Avenging Angel. I wish I could have seen it." 

Grogek grinned. "Me too." 

Renwa started digging through his desk. Zelinnia got up and grabbed a sheet of paper out of the stack and handed to him. 

"I have no idea how you always do that." He chuckled as he handed the paper to Elunara.

It was her in two poses. One was her running down the hill, dagger in hand, the other she was posed with her arms to the side dagger still in hand, with massive wings coming from her back. She appeared to be floating.

"What the hell?"

"This is a composite sketch done at the description of over fifty men, all who have said the same exact thing." He flipped through his papers. "There is another one that's a little more heart wrenching..."

Zelinnia reached over and yanked out a page. "Do stop shuffling things around until I can fix it."

Renwa laughed. "Yes, dear."

"I do like the sound of that." Zelinnia grinned as she passed over the page.

It was Elunara, screaming to the heavens, her arms wrapped around Grogek. 

"Wow." 

"The healers contributed to that one." Renwa pointed. "I figured you'd want a copy..."

"Copy?"

"Everyone who was there... wanted their own copy. The contributed to the description, they got a copy of the final pictures." 

"Oh, Hell."

Renwa nodded. 

"I got us copies of both." Zelinnia smiled sadly. "It's tragic yet beautiful and so very inspiring." 

"Zelinnia hung them in the living area. Though the other pictures you gave her... she hung in our bedroom."

Zelinnia blushed. "I really like those."

"Well, now it's just not fair. I'll have to get my own commissioned."

"I'm sure she has some, but I can always go for a new sitting." Zelinnia considered. She looked around at the other two men and blushed deeply. "Oh. Umm..." She sat back down in the floor with Darguni and pointedly refused to look up again. 

"Great, so now I'm a fucking Messiah." Elunara handed the pages to Grogek. "Goody fucking gumdrops. Now what am I supposed to do?"

"Oh, it gets better." Renwa shook his head. "Everyone has a long standing love/fear of you anyway, but now they call you some sort of secret weapon. The vengeance of hell itself, and it gets really grand and mysterious the longer they go." 

Elunara flopped down in a chair and held her head in her hands. "Kill me." 

Grogek laughed and put a hand on her shoulder. "Sorry love, not happening." 

"Sorry, we kill the messiah now, and there will be a riot on our hands." Renwa grinned. 

"I'm glad you all find this so damned funny."

"Just another day in the life of the goddess of death!" Zelinnia called cheerily, her back still to them. 

"I will get you for that." Elunara grumbled. 

"As long as it's in the bathtub." 

Everyone stared at Zelinnia. 

Elunara laughed at the heat flush on the back of her neck. "You're not getting out of that one." 

"I hate you." Zelinnia mumbled. 

Renwa laughed. "In any event, it's up to you to decide how you're going to play it. Knowing you, you'll find a way to return to normalcy." 

She ran her fingers through her hair. "Yeah, I guess."

"I should let you know that I-"

The door opened and everyone turned to look.

"Mother!" Elunara jumped out of her chair. 

Tyrande stepped forward and wrapped her hands around Elunara's face. "Elune save me, is what they are saying true?"

"Uh, yeah. Sorta."

Grogek held up the pages. 

Tyrande took them and stared down. "Renwa sent me copies of this, but it seems that more detail has been added since mine were sent."

"More than fifty men and women have contributed to the description of this event. Over and over I have sat and listened to their accounts, and not a thing changes. The event was so miraculous that the enemy surrendered himself against the belief that Elunara is some sort of goddess of war."

Tyrande gawked at her.

Elunara fidgeted and felt twelve years old. 

Tyrande looked to Grogek. "You were dead."

"Yes." He took off his shirt and pointed to the scar that finished him off. "This was the final blow." He turned so that she could see the whole scar. Pointing, Jordan explained each scar from the battle.

"You did not survive that..." 

"I am not claiming to." He pulled the shirt back over his head. 

Elunara wrapped her arms around Grogek as the tears streamed down her face. "I almost lost you." She whispered.

"You act as though you've never seen them."

Grogek wrapped his arms around her. "She hasn't. She's been unconscious until just this morning." 

"You should speak to the healers about her physical state after. She was ice cold... if you didn't see her breathe, you wouldn't have been sure she was." Jordan nodded. 

"Your face has healed rather well." Tyrande touched Jordan's cheek.

"Yeah." He smiled. "Elunara stayed on me about taking care of it." 

"Mother, why are you here?" Elunara laid her head against Grogek's chest.

"When they told me what you did, and how you spoke to Elune herself..."

"Ok, that part I don't even remember." Elunara groaned. 

"You don't?" She handed the sheets of paper to Jordan. "How could you not?"

"The healers said that I woke up and said some nonsense about speaking with Elune and all the different incarnations of beliefs. That Elune could not help me until I opened myself. Aside from that, it's a complete blank."

"I was there when you said it." Grogek kissed her shoulder. "You said that Elune spoke to you, but every time you spoke back, she turned from the essence of light, to the Naaru, to the spirits. You said that Elune liked you. You said that you had to open yourself." He stroked her hair. "You were so at peace."

"Aside from Jordan or Grogek, have you performed any miracles?"

"She saved me." Zelinnia stood up and wiped crumbs off her dress. "I... I was pregnant, and I lost the baby. It destroyed me. Elunara..." Zelinnia grabbed her hands. "She reached into me, and pulled out the darkness that had seeped in. You saved my heart." Zelinnia placed a hand over her belly even though it still did not show. "If you hadn't helped me... maybe I wouldn't feel so calm about this one."

"There was also one of our soldiers... Mark, who says that she gave of herself to help him." Renwa nodded.

"I'm so tired." Elunara sighed. "I'm so sick of all this." 

Grogek scooped her up. "Come; let's take you back to bed." She laid her head on his shoulder and closed her eyes. 

Renwa watched them leave. "I guess she's still not up to snuff."

"Yeah," Jordan sighed as he ran his fingers through his hair. "She can sure act a mean game, but I was surprised she'd popped right out of bed." 

"She'll need a few more days I'm sure." Renwa nodded. 

"I still fail to see how Elunara keeps so many lovers. Do you not get jealous?"

Jordan laughed. "With a woman like Elunara, it's difficult to be jealous. She pours her whole heart out to both of us, and we know it to be genuine. She works so hard to keep all of us happy, that I wonder how she has the energy."

Tyrande shook her head. "Forgive me for even asking. What I have heard is making my head spin. She's been tested over and over again. Not one test has shown even a flicker of... this." She sat down with a sigh. "In fact, a priestess must maintain purity of body and soul. Because my own abilities are so strong, I was allowed to take a lover in order to continue the line. Then when Malfurion came back to us..." She shook her head. "The end point here, is that with as much as Elunara... desecrates her body, ruins any chance she would have of entering the sanctum." 

"With all due respect ma'am." Jordan sighed. "Elunara would slit her own throat before attempting such a thing. To even go so far as to suggest the idea... shows me that you don't know a damned thing about your own daughter. As someone who loves her just how she is, I am insulted to consider you her mother."

Renwa stared. "Jordan...." He warned. 

Jordan straightened his back. "No, Sir. In fact, I'm rather pissed off at the moment and I'm not afraid to say it. I love that woman. Grogek loves that woman. Tulani loves that woman. We love her as she is, no holds barred. Either of us would give our lives to see to her happiness. You sit here and not only judge us, but insult us for being who we are." He shook his head. "I used to have such huge respect for you. Now, I realize that you can be just as catty and bitchy as the rest of them." He walked out the door and slammed it. 

"I agree with Jordan." Zelinnia shrugged and picked up Darguni. "I'll be back later." She kissed Renwa's cheek. "I'd rather not be in the same room as her right now." 

"I believe I just got put in my place." Tyrande whispered. "Again."

"Ma'am... I'm in the nasty place of my rank, and the fact that Elunara is my friend. I was in love with her once, and even I never truly understood her. Not like they do. Even my own wife loves Elunara in a way I cannot comprehend. Your question and subsequent rant were both out of line." 

"I'm just trying to wrap my mind around this. If Elunara was so powerful, how come we didn't see it before? If the priestesses of Elune are to be pure and chaste, why does someone like Elunara get to wield it so freely? She goes against everything we believe and stand for."

"And she hates every bit of it. She didn't ask to be some angel of mercy or whatever the hell they're calling her. She wants it to all go away. She physically assaulted Leslia after Leslia tried to trick her into using it."

"Leslia did WHAT?"

"I don't know all the details, but I heard about it."

"That little fool, I'll have to speak to her." 

"Your priestesses have been harassing Elunara left and right. They keep trying to provoke a reaction, or ask her annoying questions. She's blown it off so far, but it truly bothers her." 

"Oh! Madam! I didn't expect to see you here." Leslia fidgeted. 

"Get Tia and Nona, I need to speak with the three of you."

"Yes ma'am!" Leslia ran upstairs. 

In the little room the three shared, Tyrande stood and looked around. It was modest and sparse, like they had been raised. 

"Now explain to me, why have you been harassing Elunara?"

"I'm sorry ma'am." Leslia sat in a small chair, her hands clasped in her lap. "We've been trying to understand Elunara's power and how to use it. We thought that, if we could unlock it for her, then she'd be able to use her power for great things."

"So you tricked her?"

Leslia winced. "The soldier Mark was severely injured. Knowing that he was a good friend of hers, I thought that maybe she would bring it out again. She did not. So, I..." Leslia picked at the fabric of her robe. "So I tried to pull it out of her, by using her stamina. But, instead of doing anything good, I angered her. She... well, she went for my throat. Ina got in the middle and slapped her. I stayed locked in a room for the rest of the day."

"It was only after Elunara realized that Mark had done more damage to himself trying to break up the fight, did she sit and offer herself to his healing, bringing forth the ability again." Tia flushed. 

"What in the world possessed you three to even attempt to deal with this situation?"

"Forgive us, ma'am. There was no one else to train her, should she be able to willingly access this power." Leslia sighed. "We thought we could get to the bottom of this."

Tyrande shook her head. "I'm not sure anyone can." 

Nikal adjusted his shirt and studied his reflection in the nearby window. He waited just long enough and stepped out into the path. 

Tulani halted in her path, lifting the basket a little higher to avoid a collision.

"Hello, my dear." Nikal held out an orchid. "You look as lovely as ever." 

"Oh, uh, thanks." She smiled politely. "I have to go now." 

She made to step around him but he held out the flower. "For you."

"That's... nice." She sighed. "You are aware I'm married, right? Even if I wasn't, I'm not interested in males. Of any race." She gave him a half bow. "Have a nice day." She scooted around him and kept on home. 

Nikal frowned down at the flower in his hand. 

Tulani closed the door behind her with a sigh of relief. 

Elunara walked down the stairs rubbing her head. "Something wrong?"

"That Nikal tried to give me a flower today. Ever since that day you gave him the gloves, he pops up everywhere. This is the first time he's openly... Were you in bed?"

"Yeah, I got tired over at Renwa's and I had Grogek bring me back."

Tulani sat down her basket and put a hand to Elunara's forehead and cheeks. "You feel a little cold. I'm not sure you've fully recovered."

"Grogek was going... well, he was going to do something, and I just forget what."

"Is that Grogek's shirt?" Tulani giggled.

"Hey, I almost lost him. I just wanted..." Elunara blushed. "It's silly."

Tulani smiled and wrapped her arms around Elunara. "No, it's adorable." 

"You're adorable." Elunara kissed Tulani. "We'll have to figure out what to do about that doofus though."

"What doofus?" Grogek sat the box on the table.

"Nikal tried to give Tulani a flower."

Grogek snorted. "He's starting to get on my nerves."

Elunara raised an eyebrow. "Something I don't know about?"

"He pops up in the most random places." Tulani sighed.

"He's come to the door asking for her, repeatedly." Grogek growled. 

Elunara sighed. "I'll have to have a little chat with him." She eyed the box. "What did you bring me?"

Grogek grinned and opened it. 

She peered in. "Oh my Gods, is that Tippy's carrot cake?"

"She made the whole thing just for you."

"This is the best present EVER!" Elunara grabbed a knife and fork and got to work. By time she stopped, she had finished half of the cake off. "Oh geez, I had no idea I was so hungry."

Tulani giggled as she ate her slice of cake.

Elunara stared at Grogek who watched her with amusement. "Hey Tulani..."

"Yes?"

"You know I love you, right?"

"Of course."

"Then forgive me when I tell you that I need to abandon you for a moment."

"Oh?"

Elunara flushed. "I haven't had a chance to... celebrate with Grogek."

Tulani smiled. "Why ever are you embarrassed? Go upstairs ad ravish each other already."

Elunara grinned. "Another time I will thank you for your role in helping me save Grogek and myself."

"I figured as much." She smiled. 

Grabbing Grogek by the hand, she ran up the stairs.

A moment later, Zelinnia stuck her head out of Darguni's room. "Are they gone?"

"Yes, it will get noisy in a bit, I suspect."

"Alright, I didn't want to interru—is that Tippy's carrot cake?"

Tulani laughed. "It's Elunara's... you'll want to keep your fingers."

"Aw, but I'm pregnant. I want cake." Zelinnia pouted. 

Tulani passed over her slice. "I'll get another. I can survive Elunara's wrath."

Grogek shoved the door closed behind him. "It was not lost on me that you wear my shirt." 

"I woke up and you were gone and I..." She blushed again. "Well, I can't live without you." She wiped a tear from her eye. "You were gone. They took you from me." 

He wrapped his arms around her. "And you brought me back. You moved the earth and skies and reached down and brought me back to you." 

"You are mine, dammit. They can't have you."

He pressed his mouth to hers and their tongues and lips mated together. Running his hands under the shirt, he caressed her ass. Her hands went under his shirt and she tugged it off of him. Her fingers hooked into the band of his pants and she tugged them down. He tugged the shirt off of her and he ran his hands up and down her body. 

Her fingers explored the shapes and textures of his body as they slowly walked towards the bed. Grogek climbed in first and lay on his back, and Elunara climbed up and sat on his stomach. She ran her fingers over his abs and up across his chest, before sliding down his shoulders to prop on the bed. She enjoyed every moment of his mouth, testing and teasing him. She nibbled at his lips, licked his teeth and fangs, and dipped her tongue slowly into his mouth. 

Cupping her head with his hand, he pulled her into his mouth. She nibbled her way down to his chin and across to his neck, where she licked and sucked, dragging teeth across tender areas. He groaned and slid his hands down her body, cupping her ass. She dragged her wet folds down his stomach and towards his awaiting erection. Bouncing her hips up, she slid across the tip of his dick, where she teased him by sliding back and forth. He gripped her hips and slid her down on to him. He groaned with her. 

Elunara sat up and placed her hands on his chest. "You're so beautiful." She whispered.

"Hey, that's my line." He grinned. 

"Mine." She purred, as she began to rock her hips up and down. 

"That might also be my line." He groaned.

"I'm glad I decided to keep you." She grinned. 

"Hmm." He wrapped his arm around her waist and rolled over on top of her. "My turn." He adjusted his hips and began to slide in and out of her. "I never got to thank you for saving my life." He grinned. 

Burying his face in the curve of her neck, he kissed and teased, licked and scrapped. When she was half mad, he moved his mouth down around her collarbone and to her breasts, where he teased and tormented. He grinned at her and pulled her hips up and pounded himself into her.



For the Whored Ch. 071



Jordan walked in and sat down at the table with the two ladies. "Elunara still asleep?"

At the loud thumping, they all looked up.

"I take that as a no." Jordan laughed. "Oo, carrot cake."

"Tippy sent the whole thing to Elunara." Tulani grinned.

"Neeever mind." Jordan sighed. "Not worth a lost limb for a slice of that."

A knock on the door and Jordan sighed as he got up. He frowned at Tyrande. 

"Why are you here?"

"I wish to speak to my daughter."

Zelinnia pushed away from the table and stood up. "I refuse. I'm going home before I fire blast that bitch in the face." Zelinnia pushed past Tyrande and left.

"Would she?" Tyrande said with wonder.

"Don't mind Zelinnia," Tulani sighed. "She has a habit of saying the first thing to come to mind, and not realizing it until she gets home."

"Though, she is pretty pissed." Nodded Jordan. "But, if you must... you'll have a wait." 

Elunara lay on the bed beside Grogek grinning up at him as he lay propped up on his elbow, fingers sliding through her wet center. Using two fingers he spread her apart and flicked one finger inside the opening. She squirmed and giggled. 

"Mm, I do like playing with my wife." 

"Who likes being played with." She purred. 

"There is one thing I like more..."

"And what is that?"

He shifted himself over, so that his head was between her legs, and his legs were near her head. "Eating my wife." He buried his face in the soft folds, slipping his tongue in and out.

She closed her eyes and groaned, her hand grasping his hard dick. She began to play with his balls and ran her hand up and down his dick. She licked his tip, slurping at the sticky mess they had already made. With a groan, she ran her lips and tongue up and down the length of him, leaving little sucking kisses behind. When she slid her mouth on him, it didn't take long for him to finish. She licked him clean.

He laughed. "Oh, but I'm not finished with you." He laid his tongue flat against her and licked, grinning at her shudder. He slipped two fingers in and began to pump in and out of her, licking the edges of her folds. She squirmed against him, grabbing his leg and whimpering. He rolled on to his back; pulling her with him. Using the thumb of his other hand he pressed into her ass and began to move around inside. 

She arched her back and groaned. She bit down on his leg and he laughed before burying his face back into her soft slick folds. He enjoyed his time just feeling her and tasting what she gave him. When she began to whimper and struggle, he quickened his pace to finish her off. 

Elunara rubbed her cheek on his leg. "I don't know what I would have done if..."

He reached down and grabbed her by the waist, pulling her up and over. He cuddled her between his arms. "I didn't, and that's all that matters." 

She buried her face and arms into his chest. "I need you. More than anything in the world."

"Shh." He stroked her hair. "Don't cry."

"I can't help it." She sniffled. "It's all gotten so crazy. What the hell?" She gave a watery laugh. "I was just a whore who made it work. It was just another mission; I didn't need anyone but myself, and couldn't rely on anyone but myself. Now, I'm falling apart because I almost lost you."

Grogek laughed. "I was second in command to the meanest bastard on this world, taken apart by a silly little Night Elf with the heart of a wolf. Fate sends us down the strangest paths. We just have to take them and see where it leads. I almost left you behind; I almost didn't get to see my son grow up. But you, you fought through hell to bring me back. I thank you for that." He kissed the top of her head. 

She reached up and pressed her mouth to his. His fingers brushed her cheek. 

"I love you." She whispered.

"Do you know how long I had to fight, just to get you to say that for the first time? Now here I get to hear you say it every day, and every time it crosses your mind to say it. And every time, it makes my heart leap into my throat. I love you so much, my little she wolf."

"Does it bother you at all, what I' been doing?"

He laughed. "Which part? The collecting lovers? Or the making a business where you can use your body on any man or woman that entertains you?"

She turned red. "All of it..." 

He laughed again. "You forget; that is why I love you. Because of everything you do. You inspire people to have confidence in themselves, you show them love and respect and they flock to you. Yes, anyone else would be jealous of those men who get to have your body, but I just enjoy the way you tear through them like so much fodder, and then make them feel special for it." He chuckled. 

She sat up and sighed, running her hand down his side and his hip. "Then you won't get annoyed that I really want some more cake?"

Grogek exploded in laughter, grabbing his sides. "I see how it is!" He pushed her over and climbed on top. "Maybe I should bring you a cake more often." He smothered her in kisses while she giggled. 

They rolled out of the bed together. 

"Maybe I should put on pants." 

She shrugged. "I'm not, there's cake to be had. Besides, we could always try out some of the settings on my couch."

He grinned and tossed them to the floor. They walked hand in hand down the stairs and Elunara froze and glared. "Oh." 

Grogek looked over and snorted. "Still not putting on any pants." 

Elunara looked up at him and grinned. "Well, it IS our house."

Tyrande stood up. "I need to speak..." Her face grew hot. "Uh."

Grogek shrugged and sat down at the table, carefully cutting a small slice of cake for himself.

Elunara joined him and took a much larger piece. "Well, speak."

"He's not wearing pants." She hissed. 

"Most men don't in my house."

Tyrande closed her eyes and took a deep breath before opening them again. "Elunara, we must speak about what's been happening with you. I'd like for you to come back with me to-"

"Not a chance." Elunara shook her head. "I'm not about to leave my family, and even if we were all to go, I didn't exactly get a nice reaction last time I was there." 

"They are all welcome to come with you. I think we should have you tested at the shrine."

"Testing does nothing. No one can find a trace of it in me. On top of that, the time dilation here is too great. What would happen in this town if both Grogek and Jordan disappeared?" 

Jordan put his hand on Elunara's shoulder. "I've seen Darnassus. I can stay here. Take everyone else to see your homeland, like you told them you would."

"I'm just not comfortable." Elunara sighed. "That reminds me, Sugarbear, I need to finish your tattoo."

He held up his hand. 

"Yeah, that one." Finishing her slice of cake, she sat down her fork and walked into her library. "Here, sit." She pointed him to a chair and, from a hidden compartment, pulled out ink and a needle. He laid his hand on the table and she began the intricate task of tattooing his hand.

"What are you doing?" Tyrande cocked her head to the side. 

"You see, the way this works, the cabinet that the weapon resides, is heavily ornate and carved to exact specifications. The cabinet is then put in a location that it can't be found by those who would try to break the magic. The tattoo I'm currently carving into Grogek's hand, not only matches the carvings in the cabinet, but also the markings I put on the axe itself. It took me quite a bit of work to get the enchantment done before Grogek discovered what I was doing." She grinned. "In any event, this only works because the object the enchantment is placed on has quite a bit of significant value to the person wielding the magic. You have to have some emotional connection to the object you wield."

"How do you know this?"

Elunara stopped, put down her tool and flexed her hand. "Because I've done it before." 

Tyrande took the dagger and gasped.

Elunara returned to her work. "If you maintain your emotional connection to your weapon, the magic will always work. Should you disregard it, the magic fails."

Tyrande jumped back as the dagger disappeared.

"This is actually a temporary detachment. In reality, when you want the weapon, need the weapon, and want the weapon near you, it will always find you and it will stay with you so long as you continue to desire the item. Once the desire fades, or you "forget" about the item, it will return to its safe location. The location has been further enchanted to help clean and maintain your item. Only minimal care is required to keep the tool sharp." 

"You've used that dagger, all this time?" Tyrande murmured. 

"Yes, actually. It's saved my life more times than I care to count. Many missions have been completed on my ability to summon that dagger." 

"And I..."

"Didn't think I knew what an emotional connection was?" Elunara snorted. "Please." She shook her head and continued to work. "This ink I specifically designed myself. Once the pattern is complete, it will disappear. It's a safeguard against people realizing you need this hand to summon your weapon. Can't see it, doesn't exist." 

"How did you learn this?"

"Those forbidden books in the libraries? Yeah, I read them."

Tyrande groaned. "Is there ANY rule you didn't break?"

"I don't remember. I should try it over again."

Grogek just laughed. 

"Please come back with me to Darnassus, if only for a little while." 

"The answer is simple... I would need a full pardon, my husband and child a guarantee of acceptance, and my wife would stay by my side. I would wish for Jordan to see and be seen, but he is right, he would have to take over for Grogek."

"I trust him to do so." Grogek nodded. "In fact, I've told him that, should he ever need to, he can take my place. In all matters." 

Elunara looked up from her work, tears in her eyes. 

Grogek smiled and brushed her cheek. "I speak only the truth. I trust him to fill my role."

"Something tells me this has nothing to do with training..." Tyrande murmured. 

Elunara laughed and bent her head over Grogek's hand. "Looks like I have a backup husband." 

"I wonder what kind of ceremony THAT entails." Jordan laughed from the door. "Though if I want one of those neat instant weapons, it looks like I'm going to have to form an emotional attachment to something." He shrugged. "In any event, I hope to NEVER have to take up that whole... backup husband thing."

"You almost did..." Murmured Elunara.

Jordan walked over and knelt in front of her. He wiped the tear off her cheek. "And it almost destroyed you. No. I don't want to ever have to step up on that one." 

Tyrande looked behind her at the Draenei woman, quietly sewing. "What do you think of this discussion?"

"I think that no one could replace Grogek. I believe that Jordan would give it his best shot, because he loves her. But in the end, he would be just as devastated, as would I, and we would all move on just that much less than we are." Tulani shook her head. "No, I don't think it's a fair task to anyone. It will always remain best for Grogek to be the head of our household, but should anything happen to him... we would just do the best that we could, because we had each other." 

Elunara looked up and grinned at Grogek who looked genuinely moved by Tulani's statement. "Hey, I thought I was the head."

"You are the glue that brought us all together as a family. Grogek is the head of the rest of us. If it came down to it, what Grogek says, goes before what the rest of us say. It's probably good he's never bothered to exercise that right." Tulani shrugged. "Elunara brought us in, but it is through Grogek's graces that we were allowed to stay. What other man would let his wife have lovers, let alone let them move in and share space?"

Grogek laughed. "I like this arrangement."

Jordan shrugged. "She's not wrong."

Tyrande just stared. "Once again, I feel as though I've been put in my place."

"Welcome to our little town." Tulani smiled benignly. 

Elunara gently blew on Grogek's hand. The detailed work she had finished glowed brightly before fading into nothingness. Elunara nodded. "Alright, try it."

Grogek held out his hand and flexed. His axe appeared and he grabbed it. "Fascinating." 

"Now, should you drop it, you can re-summon it." 

Grogek dropped the axe on the floor before flexing his hand again. The hilt was back in his hand. "Very nice." He nodded. 

"That you are able to do that at all is something of a miracle." Tyrande breathed. She shook her head. "Well, we did eventually allow our kind to study the arcane. There are now Night Elf mages, but even they are fledgling. This is full blown magic. 

"I broke into the forbidden magic books and I have read every one of them. I have a photographic memory that allows me to recreate what I have seen with perfect accuracy. It is one of the reasons I did so well as a mission specialist. Over time, I absorbed the magic of the people I thwarted. I have more magic in my head than most mages can wield. The problem, is that I can ONLY use things that require some form of inscription. If tried to cast a spell, nothing happens. This is why I am so confused by this light thing. I've tried, mother. Over and over again I have tried, and nothing, NOTHING happens." 

Elunara sighed and looked at her hands. "The fact it took me loving someone is strange too... I know this, because I tried to heal Tulani's scars."

Tulani froze. "You what?"

"When you first came to me... and I saw what they did to you... I tried to heal it. I..." She ran her hand through her hair. "I just wanted to help you so badly; I... traced runes and tried to summon the magic. Nothing happened." She dropped her hands. 

Tulani sat down her sewing and walked to Elunara. Wrapping her arms around Elunara, Tulani pressed her mouth to the other woman. Elunara wrapped her arms around Tulani and pulled her into her lap. She came up for air and ran her hands on Elunara's cheeks. "Only you would think to try." She laid her head on her shoulder.

"I just couldn't stand what they had done to you. I had hoped to at least... lighten them."

Grogek stood up and kissed Tulani on the head. "I would try if I could."

She laughed. "You're always so sweet to me." Tulani pat Grogek's cheek. 

"You make people want to take care of you, Tulani." Jordan grinned. He shook his head. "Elunara makes everyone want to love her, to do whatever she says in order to curry her favor. Everyone wants to take care of and protect Tulani. Grogek just likes making people nervous."

"And you make all the ladies swoon and curse Elunara's name." Grogek cackled. 

"Gods, it's gotten worse since my face healed." Rubbing his face, he winced. "Now I'm all distinguished. Even worse, I'm the languishing forgotten lover."

Elunara cackled. "Yeah right." 

"I think they were happier when they thought I was gay for Grogek. Somehow THAT made sense to the looneys." He shivered. 

Elunara cocked her head to the side. "Ok, even I think that one is gross." 

"Well, south orchard cured them all of that." He laughed. 

"The south orchard cures all ills." Elunara grinned. 

"No offense, you will never find me there." Tulani made a face. 

"No one is expecting you to." Elunara kissed her. 

"I avoid even going near it." Tulani flushed. "I had an order for some tarps... I made Eloise deliver them." 

"She knows why, right?"

"Who DOESN'T?" Tulani sat up laughing. "Gods, I know you're going out there before you can ever tell me." She scooted out of Elunara's lap and went back for her sewing. 

"Gerald is aces at rounding up his betters."

"WHAT is the sound orchard?" Tyrande interrupted. 

Everyone started laughing at once. 

"Uh..." Tyrande looked around for an answer.

Elunara took a deep breath. "When I'm... extra horny, me and Grogek go out to the south orchard and fuck each other's brains out until he collapses from exhaustion."

"And Gerald sets up a betting ring behind one of the hills," Grogek grinned.

"and... people gather to lay down bets on the... actions." Jordan finished. 

Tyrande stared in horror. 

"When they had that rumor going on that Jordan was fucking Grogek, well, we invited him to the party. He certainly proved where HIS affections lie." Elunara winked. 

Tyrande put a hand to her head. "I can't believe I'm hearing this. Does Renwa do nothing?"

"Renwa made about 300gold last time." She shrugged.

"Wait." Jordan straightened up. "On what?"

"Mostly? That you were straight as a board." Elunara grinned. 

"Oh." 

"I'd get on to him about hedging his bets, but those that bet against him deserved to be fleeced."

"Damn right they did." Jordan crossed his arms. 

"How IS Gerald, anyway?" Grogek frowned. 

"Oh, we settled. I accept his description of not being like Jordan."

"Not like me how?"

"Oh, I forgot to tell you that one." Elunara sighed. "Since neither of you has my hearing, you don't hear the dumb conversations that go on during south orchard. Anyway, Gerald made some... vague statements about being in love with me."

"Shit."

She waved her hand. "No, he was still sore over me almost ripping his nuts off. He said that he thought we were friends, and then I tear him apart over his betting. I pointed out to the moron, that if he'd been caught by SI:7, they'd have done more than rip a few hairs off his balls. I made him see the error of his stupidity, he chilled out and I tossed him a freebie for it." She shrugged. 

Jordan winced. "Gods, people need to learn to stop pissing you the fuck off."

"I know, right?"

Tyrande held her head in her hands. She looked at the ceiling. "WHYYYYYY me? What did I do to deserve this?"

Elunara snorted. "Ain't all about you, mother." She turned to Jordan. "Wait, I figured all your whining about having a smaller dick than Grogek would have helped with your female problems."

"Of course NOT!" He threw his hands in the air. "Now they think it's up to them to prove to me how valuable my dick really is."

Elunara snorted. "Gods Jordan, you cannot catch a break."

"You were my once in a life time break and I damned well took it at the soonest available moment. I'm fresh out of breaks."

"Aww, do you need me to pet it and make it better?" She grinned. 

"It's always available to you." He grinned. 

"All this talk of petting is making me realize I'm still not wearing pants." Grogek muttered. 

Elunara looked back. "Aww, do you need somewhere to hide it?" she grinned. 

"You're not wearing clothes either." He laughed. 

"You say that like I care or I forgot. It's kind of breezy in here today." 

Grogek put a hand on her leg. "You're ice cold."

"What?" 

"Shit." Jordan rushed forward and scooped her up. 

"Wait!" 

He took off jogging upstairs and put her in bed. 

"What are...?"

Jordan tucked the blankets around her as Grogek came in. He put his hands on her face and arms. 

"I'll get Ina." Jordan nodded to Grogek and started running.

Tulani came in. "How much has she had to eat today?"

"Just the cake I guess." Elunara shrugged. 

"I'll go get her something to eat." Grogek pulled his pants on. 

Tulani shook her head. "I'll go. You can force her to stay in bed."

"What's going on?" Tyrande frowned. 

"When Elunara... did the thing... she blacked out and was ice cold. Her whole body felt like ice, the only heat left in her body was in her chest. Ina told us, that if the cold comes back for ANY reason, we were to get her warm and get the healers." 

"I was sitting there naked; of course I'm going to get cold." She shivered. "Well, damn." She muttered. The shivering continued to get more severe before the world went dark.



For the Whored Ch. 072



Grogek sighed as he stroked her head. "Oh, my love, what have you done to yourself?" He murmured. 

Jordan ran in, gasping for air. Letting Ina off his back, he made his way to the bed. "Oh, Baby." He sighed and ran his fingers on her cheek. 

"What was she doing before she went cold?" Ina ran her hands over Elunara.

"Sitting downstairs, talking." 

"She have much to eat today?" 

"Just some cake."

Ina shook her head. "This girl needs a meal. Preferably a buffet, she used too much energy, then slept it off. No food in her belly means she had nothing to burn but more of her own energy. You're both idiots."

Tulani came in holding a basket. "Damn, I'm too late."

"A house FULL of idiots." Ina shook her head. 

"Is there anything I can do?" Tyrande stepped forward. 

"Well," Ina shrugged. "If you're willing to do it, you can pump a healthy dose of energy into her system; give her more time to recov..." Ina narrowed her eyes at Grogek. "You didn't listen to me, DID YOU?" 

Grogek flushed and scratched his head. "You know how she gets..." 

Ina smacked her forehead. "Can you keep it in your pants for a few more days?"

Grogek snorted. "Can YOU stop her?"

"Be a man." 

Grogek's color deepened. 

Tyrande sighed. "I take it she burned off her fresh store of energy on sex?"

"Damn, Grogek... even I could have resisted." Jordan snorted.

"I doubt it. Besides, we hadn't had time to properly celebrate the whole... not dying thing."

"Men. I never had a use for em." Ina snorted. 

Tyrande ran her hands over Elunara. "She's so depleted." She murmured. She straightened up and held her hands up high and began to cast the spell. Closing her eyes, she focused on the light in the center of Elunara's chest. She spread her energy out and seeped into Elunara. As she cast, that light in the center of Elunara reached out and tangled with the spell. Soon the tendril of light became hungry and greedy, sucking energy from the spell. As it reached out, Tyrande became aware of another. Somewhere deep within Elunara, the spell was channeled and directed, as if Elune herself was helping to aid in the recovery of Elunara's body. She gasped and broke contact as she became dizzy. 

She stood there in shock. Tyrande knelt beside the bed and prayed for guidance. Standing back up, she shook her head. "There is no logic in this."

"What?" Said Ina.

"It was not Grogek who took her strength. He... may have fed it." She shook her head. "I desperately wish Elunara would accompany me back to Darnassus, there may be something there to explain this."

"Explain what?"

"There are two beings inside of Elunara. She... takes energy from those around her. Then there is this darkness." Tyrande shivered. "It's a burning rage, so deep and so angry. I think that this being has been trapped inside her. I have no idea how long it's been there... Perhaps it's possibly the reason she has never shown a mark for Elune." She sighed and put her hand on Elunara's head. "I cannot tell which entity is malevolent and which is pure. It is my belief that perhaps the spirit of Elune has kept these things in balance until that day that she saved Jordan. Something shifted, and now they're both trying to take control. Whichever one is malevolent, it is draining her."

"That makes... no damned sense." Jordan shook his head. 

"Aye, I agree with Jordan." Ina sighed. "Something is going on."

"My head is freaking killing me." Elunara put a hand on her head. 

"I still have the food." Tulani sat the basket on the bed. 

"Give it to her." Ina moved out of the way. 

Grogek helped Elunara sit up in bed. 

"Wait."

Everyone looked at Tyrande. "Grogek, can you humor me and kiss my daughter?"

Grogek shrugged and pulled Elunara to him and kissed her. Tyrande closed her eyes and channeled. When they broke contact she waited a moment before stopping. 

"Hmm. Jordan? You."

Jordan repeated the process. 

"As much as this entertains me, what the hell?" Elunara shook her head. 

"Now, Ina, I hate to ask this of you, but... can you?"

"Tyrande asks for a favor, I guess I gotta." Ina kissed Elunara. 

"I thought so. Forgive me Ina." Tyrande sighed. "When she is kissed by those she loves, she pulls a little bit of energy from them. When by someone she has no romantic connection, there is little to nothing." 

"Sooooo everything I've been doing all my life... feeds me?" 

"I would have to test the theory with others, but maybe? I don't really WANT to test you while you're... doing that."

"Tulani? Can you get Zelinnia and Gerald?" 

"Sure. Eat." Tulani turned and left. 

"May I ask the significance?" 

"Both I have had..." Elunara rocked her head back and forth. "Encounters with. They would be the middle ground to test." 

"You... and Zelinnia?" Jordan raised an eyebrow. 

Elunara pointed at him. "If you repeat it to Renwa, I will tie your dick in a knot. She does NOT want to admit it to him. It is HER place to tell him if she decided to."

"Well, that explains the bathtub comment."

Elunara began to systematically destroy all the food and drink in the large picnic basket. "Gods, I didn't eat this much when I was pregnant." 

"Some days I am amazed you have only one child." 

"I ripped out the ol' baby maker at the earliest convenience." Elunara shrugged as she continued to eat. 

Gerald stepped into the room. "Huh, so this is what it's like in here. Sort of like the old place. Less porn on the walls though."

"I went for tasteful and not random postings this time."

"Tulani said you needed me."

"We're testing a theory, get over here and kiss me."

He froze. "Uh, why?" 

"Mother is channeling a spell to test my energy levels. So far, kissing people I love gives me bursts of energy. Now I have to kiss people I merely have sexual energy with. So get over here and imagine it's my ass." 

He laughed nervously. "You don't beat around the bush, do you?"

She snorted. "Neither do you. Now get."

He sighed. "Fiiine." 

"I'm not kidding, give it a good go. Whatever you gotta think of to charge the sexual energy." 

He closed his eyes and concentrated. "Ok, I got it." He pressed his lips to hers. After a moment he pulled back. "Please tell me that was enough. Worse than my sister, I swear to Gods." 

"Wait, so you've got a thing for your sister's ass?" 

Gerald visibly shuddered. "Why'd you have to go there?" He scratched his head. "You may have the nicest ass I've ever seen, but you're like my sister sometimes." 

"You pull some energy from him." Tyrande mused. "Not nearly what Grogek and Jordan offer, but definitely more than Ina."

"You kissed Ina?" Gerald cackled. "I missed it?" He shook his head and left. 

Zelinnia walked in flushed and out of breath. "Tulani said it was urgent." 

"Zel, sweetie, we need you for an experiment." 

"Um, ok."

Elunara patted the bed. "Come on, get up here." 

Zelinnia climbed in bed and cocked her head to the side. "What's going on?"

"I need to kiss you."

"Buh?"

"Think of it like healing energy." 

"If you say so."

Elunara put both of her hands on either side of Zelinnia's face and pulled her to her. She pressed her lips to Zelinnia who responded immediately. Elunara slid her hand down Zelinnia's arm and back, pulling her in. When Elunara finally broke contact Zelinnia was gasping. 

"I hate how you can do that." Zelinnia flushed. "Between you and Tulani I go crazy. It's not fair at all."

"Aw, I'm sorry, sweetie." Elunara rubbed her thumb on Zelinnia's cheek. "You did me a huge favor. But now you can take it out on Renwa when you get back." Elunara winked. 

"Amazing. Even after she stopped, the energy transfer just kept up until... the moment was broken." Tyrande stared at her hands. 

"Aye, I saw it too." 

Zelinnia turned deep scarlet. "Why'd you have to do it in front of people?"

Elunara grabbed Zelinnia's wrist before she could run. "First, don't excite yourself, you could bother the baby. Second, I'm having to kiss random people. Apparently, I recharge on sexual energy. This is returning my health to me. I hate that I had to." Elunara brushed her fingers on Zelinnia's lips. "I knew you would give me what I needed. Thank you for helping. Now, go maul Renwa." Elunara let go of Zelinnia's wrist. 

"You needed me to get better?" 

"Yes."

"Oh, that's fine then." She wrapped her arms around Elunara. 

"If you want to borrow Darguni again, he's downstairs playing with Yoona." 

"Alright. Get well." Zelinnia pressed her lips to Elunara before climbing out of the bed and running away. 

"I find Gerald's actions strange." Jordan shook his head. 

"YOU find it strange? You haven't had him ploughed up your ass." Elunara shook her head. "I wasn't ME that was freaking him out; it was you and Grogek staring at him." 

"Your descriptions are always so pleasant." Tyrande sighed. 

"You should try it sometime." Elunara shrugged. 

"The descriptions or the thing you described?"

"I quite enjoy both myself." 

Grogek snickered. 

Tyrande rolled her eyes. "Please Elunara, let me take you to Darnassus, if the priestess can't help you, then maybe the druids can. Even Malfurion may be able to sort this out. He knows plenty about the division of self." 

"Ugh, if it will get you to quit harping about it." 

"I will get Darguni ready." Tulani smiled and left the room. 

"She's been dying to go." Elunara sighed. 

"I will make sure you are welcomed home with open arms. You have done so much to deserve it."

Jordan kissed her cheek. "I'll go let Renwa know what's going on." 

Elunara reached out and grabbed Jordan's hand. "We won't be gone long, I swear it." 

"We'll make preparations, you just rest." 

She whimpered and tugged him back down. Wrapping her arms around him she sighed. "I don't want to leave you all by yourself."

"Baby, I was alone for a long time before you talked sense into me. I can handle a few days without you." He slipped out of bed and down the hall.

"You know, if I understand this energy transfer of yours..." 

"You read that?" Elunara grumbled. 

"Then it means that I've horribly misjudged you all these years. Yes, your actions were... horrible, but this insatiable need to have sex with everything that moved was merely a manifestation of the quickest way to get your energy fix." Tyrande shook her head. "I don't even have to forcibly read it. Now that I recognize it, even the most casual touches with the ones you love send shockwaves of power into your body. I very much would like to study it." 

"Will my axe work across the time?"

Elunara shrugged. "My dagger never stopped working." 

He nodded. "I will get us packed." Grogek froze. "Did you use energy to do the tattoo?" He held up his hand. 

"Yes, of course. I have to pour a little bit of myself into every needle point. I charge the ink, I weave the spell, and it takes massive amounts of concentration and power."

Ina reached over and whacked Elunara in the back of the head. "No damned wonder you blacked out."

"Ow, damn." She winced. 

"I got patients to tend to that aren't morons." Ina snorted. 

Grogek laughed. "I'm just glad it wasn't my fault."

"Elunara, I can't figure out, how you managed to conceal that dagger all these years. No one has ever come across it."

"OH! Um, well, at risk of our already tenuous relationship, I broke down one of the inner walls of the Temple of the Moon, then sealed it over with concealing runes. You'd have to order the complete and utter destruction of the temple in order to find it."

"You did WHAT?" Tyrande put a hand to her chest. "The defacement of a sacred structure..."

"Yeah, yeah. Kind of too late now. I only managed to complete it a few days before I was forcibly removed." 

Tyrande put a hand to her forehead. "Elune help me."

"Elune thought it was funny." Elunara snorted. 

Tyrande stopped and stared. "How do you know that?"

"She told me."

"When?"

"When..." Elunara blinked. "I... don't know when." She rubbed her forehead. "I remember speaking with her, she said it was brilliant." Elunara shook her head. "But, I don't know when."

"Could it have been that night in the healer's building, when you awoke and said you spoke to her?" Grogek rubbed her arm. 

"Maybe."



For the Whored Ch. 073



A couple of days later, Elunara stood nervously in the field, hand linked with Grogek, and other with Tulani. Tulani was holding Darguni and would transfer him into Elunara's arms before they stepped through the portal. 

Tyrande handed Grogek a bundle. "Please put this on, it will make things easier."

"What is it?" He held it up before pulling it over his head.

"Darnassus tabard." Elunara nodded. "So they don't kill you on sight."

"Ah. It's... purple."

She laughed. "Live with it, tough guy." 

He linked his fingers with her. "Your nerves are showing."

"Yeah, I want a tabard. Last I was here; I left with a kill on sight on my ass." 

The mages opened the portal. Tyrande stepped through first. After a moment, Tulani handed Darguni over. Elunara put him on her hip and stepped through. It was a bit of a shock, but she'd taken many portals before. It was the time ones that made you the wooziest. They were on the island where the pink portal to Darnassus lay. Tyrande was speaking with the guards. They eyed Elunara with suspicion.

"This is my daughter Elunara. You remember her. This is her child, Darguni."

"He really is an Orc." Whispered one. 

Grogek arrived next. The guards raised their glaives, but Tyrande shook her head. "This is her husband."

They openly stared as Grogek walked to Elunara and took her hand. She brushed her lips against his. 

"Elunara was always an odd one." Murmured the other guard. 

Tulani stumbled forward and both she and Grogek helped to steady her. "Oh, I am nauseous."

"Yeah, it happens sometimes with ports. The more you take the more that lessens. The time ones are especially awful." Elunara brushed Tulani's hair back.

"You are familiar with Draenei, this one is no different." Tyrande gestured. "Now, I am going to step through to prepare the others. Be nice." Tyrande ordered, before she stepped through.

Elunara snorted. "That really only means you can't kill any of us. You are under no obligation to be nice to me. Though, my family... that's something entirely different. Orc or not, he is my husband." 

"I can't believe you ever got that far."

"Neither can I." 

Tyrande reappeared. "You may follow after me." She went back through the portal. 

Elunara shrugged and saluted the guards. "See ya." 

Tulani let out a huge gasp. "Oh, it's so beautiful."

"Yeah..." Elunara felt herself tear up. She sat Darguni down and took his hand. Tyrande continued to make explanations as they followed her through town. Everyone stopped and stared. 

"I have arranged for you to stay at the inn. Your old room is entirely too small for your family." 

Elunara snorted. "I'd like to see just Grogek try to squeeze into that little alcove." 

Tulani was spinning in circles as she walked. "That is the most amazing tree I have ever seen." 

"That's the bank." Elunara grinned. 

They made their way up the ramp and to the warrior's terrace, through the crafter's area and up to the inn. The innkeeper bowed. 

"We need the room I requested." 

"Yes, Ma'am, this way." She smiled. They were led upstairs and to a spacious room. The innkeeper frowned. "I'm afraid we don't have a bed large enough."

"That's fine." Elunara shrugged. "Just bring extra blankets and we'll sleep on the floor."

"Alright." 

"It's good to see you again."

She smiled. "Try to not get yourself banished again." She leaned over. "Wow he's BIG!" She whispered.

"You have NO idea." Elunara winked.

After the innkeeper left Grogek grinned. "Well, you seem friendly."

"Are you kidding? I was her best customer for YEARS."

Grogek laughed as he put down the trunk. "Of course you were." 

Tyrande gave a large sigh. "I did NOT need to know that." She shook her head. "Come; let us all head to the Temple so that I may make an announcement." 

Once they were standing in front of the Temple of the Moon, a place Elunara was quite familiar with standing, Tyrande called out.

"My daughter Elunara has returned to me with full honors. Those who know Elunara from before will recognize her as the daughter I denied, cast out and banished from Darnassus. I will have you know that not only have I rescinded this order, I do it with utmost pride and joy. She has proven herself time and time again in the field of battle, and in many cases turned the tide in our favor. She has shown herself here today with the most unusual circumstances. This is General Grogek, former Iron Horde, and former second to Grommash himself. Elunara has redeemed this soul and has in fact, married him in a holy ceremony. I have welcomed him with open arms, as should you. 

She further brings her child, a half orc, half Night Elf being known as Darguni. He is to be treated with care and respect. To complicate matters even more, because Elune knows that's Elunara's only speed, she has also brought with her a WIFE. Tulani is a Draenei with which we are already familiar with as our allies. This unusual family has been brought together at the hands of our Elunara. 

I feel it wouldn't be fair of me to leave out the one they had to leave to attend their affairs, because somehow, Elune help me, General Jordan Shryke of Stormwind is also part of Elunara's family as her lover. As confusing as this all is, I still manage to welcome Elunara back to Darnassus as my cherished daughter, who has gone out of her way to prove me wrong time and time again. Please welcome them with all honors and love." 

Tyrande turned to Elunara. "You try my sanity." 

Elunara snorted. "Well, that kind of kills the sentimentality of your statement."

"Yet, I meant every word." Tyrande sighed and hugged Elunara. "I'm glad to have you back."

"I'm glad to be back, and not have glaives thrown at my head."

Tyrande cocked her head to the side. "Is it true you caught one and flung it back?"

Elunara snickered. "Yeah, and scared the shit out of Shylena. Was quite funny." 

"Elunara, if it's ok, I'd like to take care of Darguni while we're here." Tulani blushed. "I'm not so comfortable on my own, and not having my sewing is making me... itchy." 

Elunara handed over Darguni. "Of course." She brushed her hand over Tulani's hair and kissed her. "You do whatever is comfortable." 

"Draenei are regarded highly here. We have close ties with the ones on Azuremyst and Bloodmyst isles. Perhaps if there's time, we can take you to Exodar." 

"I'm not really... comfortable around people at all. My own kind or no." Tulani flushed. "Elunara is my world, and I only get along in town as I do because of her." She sat Darguni down and took his hand. 

"Oh, don't be like that, sweetheart." Elunara brushed the back of her fingers on Tulani's cheek. "You've done plenty on your own and you've grown so much. In fact, you haven't even had a nightmare since Lorros' kidnapped me." Elunara twirled Tulani's hair in her fingers. 

"I..." She blushed. "I guess you're right." 

"I notice these things, my sweetness." 

"ELUNARA!!!"

Everyone turned to look at the Night Elf running up the pathway.

"Elunara, my turtledove! There you are!" He threw himself on Elunara. 

She tried to untangle herself. "Uh, hey... uhh." She looked to Tyrande. 

"Yernal." 

"Yernal. How are you?" Elunara awkwardly patted his back.

"Oh, Elunara! My turtledove, my sweet, delicate flower! How I have missed you! I knew you couldn't stay away for long, so you did something heroic to come back home to me!"

Elunara untangled him and shrugged in confusion at Tyrande. 

"You don't remember him?"

"Not a bit."

Tyrande put her hand on Yernal's shoulder. "Yernal, dear, this is Grogek, Elunara's husband." Tyrande gestured. 

Yernal sniffed. "A poor substitution, but I guess you had to make do with what you could find."

Elunara grabbed him by the throat and held him in the air. "You say one more bad thing about my husband or family, and by Elune, I will get myself banished again." 

"You are not the Elunara I used to know." He gasped.

"You're damned right I'm not." She tossed him to the ground and watched him scrabble away.

"This must be the daughter you've told me so much about." A mild voice had them all turning around. "Has a bit of a temper, I'd say. Just like her mother." Malfurion laughed.

Grogek shared the laugh. "The town is more afraid of her, than me." He grinned.

"Is that so? Fascinating." Malfurion stooped down. "And what a fascinating child."

Darguni smiled, showing off his teeth.

"One fang?" 

"He was born with it." Elunara regarded Malfurion. "You're looking... fascinating." 

"The Emerald Dream warped my body."

"I heard." 

"I can honestly say that it is good to see you." He put his hand on her shoulder. "Tyrande has..." He lifted his hand and looked at it. He put his hand on her shoulder again before taking it back and frowning. "How odd."

"Elunara..."

She held up her hands. "Don't look at me, I'm not doing anything. I swear."

Malfurion looked at Tyrande. "Something I should know?"

"Elunara's body absorbs energy through contact with those she holds a... sexual energy with." 

Malfurion raised a brow. 

"Maybe positive energy works as well." Tulani smiled. 

"If that were true..." Malfurion began.

"Then Elunara's actions all this time were justified..." Tyrande nodded. 

Grogek reached out and put hand to Elunara's arm. "You're getting cold again." 

Both Grogek and Tulani wrapped their arms around Elunara and she laughed. "Hey, I like the idea, but why am I still losing energy?"

Darguni held up his hands. "Momma."

Elunara picked him up and smiled. "You want to help too?"

"Why IS she still getting cold?" Tulani frowned. 

"Perhaps the darkness I felt is draining her. Maybe it is the light I saw that maintains her energy through contact, but the dark is eating it." 

"Oh goody, I have a parasite." 

"Exactly. I wish to have you examined in the Temple."

"Well, we're here." 

"Elunara has always had a near unlimited amount of energy, I've only ever seen her like this one other time, and that's when Grommash absolutely destroyed her body." Grogek shook his head. "I now understand that my affection and concern for her may have actually been the thing to save her." Grogek stroked her hair.

"Funny how that works." Elunara laughed as she laid her head against his shoulder.

"It really is quite fascinating to see them like this." Malfurion remarked. 

"Yes, the little Night Elf and big ol' orc. Weird, right? Anyway, can we move this along?" 

Grogek laughed. "We'll go home soon." 

"Yes, let's." Tyrande lead the way into the Temple. 

The other priestesses eyed the crew with some trepidation. Tyrande gestured where she wanted Grogek and Tulani to stand with Darguni. Elunara sat on the pedestal at the feet of the statue in the center of the pond. Tyrande and Malfurion took spots on opposite end of the pool. The rest of the priestesses began to gather in a circle. 

"We've already discussed what we will be doing. All of us will be channeling the same spell. Hopefully this will tell us what is going on." 

Elunara closed her eyes and leaned back. 

All around, the priestesses began to cast their spell. Tyrande directed them. Malfurion added his own variety to the mix. 

Elunara felt a deep sense of calm as the spell reached into her and gently probed her spirit. She became dizzy and rubbed her forehead. 

Tyrande had closed her eyes as she followed the spell and found two tangled creatures. One was the light, the other a deep darkness. 

Grogek and Tulani stared in awe as Elunara was lifted into the air. A tendril of light wrapped itself around her body, and the other was an inky blackness that attempted to surround her. The light and the dark began to tangle and fight around her body. Not certain of what they were doing, both started running. Darguni sat down and began to giggle and clap. Grogek and Tulani reached Elunara and grabbed her hands. 

The light wrapped around the pair and began to siphon energy from them, growing larger. Tulani let go first, her head laid back and her mouth open. The light energy pulled more from Grogek, as it battled against the darkness. Grogek was lifted into the air and he reached out and grabbed the black tendril. With a growl he ripped it apart. Most of it fell down to the holy water, burning and disintegrating. A small part slipped back into Elunara's body. They drifted back down to the base of the statue and the priestesses stopped their spell. 

"What was that?" Tulani asked, as she rubbed Elunara's forehead. 

"I don't know, but we didn't get all of it." Tyrande frowned. 

"GAH!" Elunara sat up and held her head. "Fucking hell." 

Several priestesses gasped at her language. 

"Are you alright, my love?" Grogek ran his thumb on her forehead. 

"I REALLY wish Elune would stop using me as a freaking pin cushion."

Every Night Elf present froze. "How do you know it was Elune?" Tyrande whispered.

"She freaking told me." 

"How are you able to commune with her directly?"

"I don't know. But she sat there and told me that she needed help purifying my body and that she would call on anyone she had to, to get it done." Elunara shook her head. "She said... that when I used so much energy on Grogek, I allowed an opening for this dark thing. Something about a Dark star? I don't know what the hell that means. Anyway, until it is destroyed completely, it will continue to grow and eat me." 

"I've heard of it before." Tulani frowned. "A dark star is a Naaru at the end of its lifecycle. If it is away from people; it explodes into a massive wave of energy. If it is near people, it can cause untold destruction and chaos. There have been tales of people who have absorbed the dark star, but they usually wind up destroying themselves in the process of trying to harness it. If she really harbors the essence of a Dark Star, it will kill her, but only after it corrupts her body in a way that could destroy us all..." Tulani wrapped her arms around Elunara. 

"Elunara's body must be a haven for such a creature." 

"So tired." She whimpered. 

Grogek scooped her up. "She needs rest." 

"I agree. We must discuss how we are to finish the job." Malfurion nodded. 

Elunara woke up in a pile of blankets and pillows. "My head is killing me." She whimpered. 

Grogek helped her sit up and drink. 

"How long was I out this time?" She sighed as she laid her head against his chest. 

"Only a few hours." 

"Where's Tulani?"

"Trying to get some childish energy out of Darguni. Your innkeeper friend offered to take her shopping." 

"Well, that's good." 

"They're working very hard to understand how best to deal with the dark star."

"Dark Star? What's a dark star?"

"Do you not remember what you said in the Temple"

"Ugh, I did it again, didn't I?"

He stroked her hair. "I don't know how you never remember your discussions with your Elune."

"It's frustrating to have such a hole in my memory."

"I wonder if she is speaking through you. Not that you woke up and told us, but that she used you to deliver the message. Anyway, when you depleted your energy to revive me, you didn't have enough of yourself left to defend yourself against this Dark Star Energy. At the Temple they are trying to figure out how to purify your body in order to rid you of the dark star."

"Fun." Elunara snuggled against him. "Now I'm a puppet." 

Tulani entered the room with the innkeeper who sat down a basket. "I knew you'd be hungry." Tulani released Darguni's hand and let him run around. 

"Has he gotten bigger?" Elunara frowned. 

"Yeah. He jumped again." Tulani sighed. "I can barely lift him." 

"How old is he?"

"Not even two." Elunara frowned. 

"He acts and moves like a four to five year old."

"His growth was already bordering on ridiculous, but I think going through the portal just accelerated the issue." Elunara frowned as she watched him. 

"We must work on his speech." Tulani sighed. "I hope his intelligence is keeping up with his body."

Grogek nodded. "Something we can deal with when we get back." 

Darguni flopped down in Elunara's lap and smiled. "Momma." 

She wrapped her arms around him. "Yeah, I am." 

Darguni pointed at Tulani. "Momma Tuly." 

Tulani nodded. "Yes, that's right."

He grinned at Grogek and climbed in his lap. "Papa." 

Grogek laughed. "Yes. Yes I am." He picked up Darguni and tossed him up. "My son." Darguni came down with a wild giggle. 

The innkeeper wiped a tear. "I feel like I just got to experience a very personal family moment." 

Darguni climbed up on to Grogek's shoulders and hugged the back of his head. 

Grogek laughed. "Your mother does that too." 

"Damn, I lost my perch to a usurper." Elunara sighed. "Though, I'm curious as to how he will react to Jordan." 

"Unca Joran?" Darguni cocked his head to the side. 

"Sure." She laughed. 

"Ok, so I heard Tyrande say that, Grogek is your husband?"

"Of course."

"Tulani is your wife?"

"Double yes."

"And this Jordan is your... lover?"

"Backup husband also works." 

Sae shook her head. "You never did anything by halves. Or normal for that matter." She laughed. "I feel forward asking a man to get a bite to eat, you just walk up to them and say "Hey, let me eat you"." 

Elunara laughed. "She's right, I did say that once."

"I'm sure he enjoyed it." Grogek laughed. 

"I take it he is aware of your past?"

"Past, present, future." Elunara shrugged. "He likes to watch... or join. Depending on the situation."

Sae just stared. 

"She isn't messing with you." Grogek grinned. "Though, since Jordan joined our family, I don't have to harass her clients to get my own entertainment."

"You call them clients now?"

"I started my own business. On the base, I draw portraits, or even dude nudes for people. I also have been doing a body identification program where I draw the bodies of our soldiers in order to draw up a book of identifying marks. I've identified many bodies of our fallen using it. After that... well, I offer a practice I call "sexual healing" where I help people deal with their sexual related questions and concerns. I improve the sex lives of couples."

Sae started laughing. "Oh, Elune save me, you made a business out of it." 

"Well, previously, I used my talents in the SI:7, I seduced a target, leeched him of all his information and dumped him in a ditch."

"I'm impressed you've made all this work out so well for you."

"Feel free to share the gossip." Elunara winked. 

Sae put a hand to her chest. "A woman after my own heart." 

"Careful, she'll seduce you too." Tulani winked. 

Elunara opened the basket and gasped. "OH! I haven't had any of this in AGES!" Elunara began digging. "Do you know how impossible it is to get some of these treats outside of Darnassus?"

Sae smiled. "I picked all your favorites."

Elunara began stuffing her face. 

Grogek laughed. "I haven't heard those sounds outside of sex."

"Me either." Tulani shook her head. 

"You have no idea." She mumbled in between bites. 

Sae grinned. "I'll leave you to your foodgasm." 

"I meant to ask you..." Grogek wiped frosting off her cheek. "What's a turtledove?"

"A silly little bird." 

"I just loved "delicate"." Tulani giggled.

"I still don't remember that idiot." She stuffed another pastry in her mouth.

"I'm glad you're eating. You'll need your strength." Tyrande stood in the doorway. "Sorry, the door was open."

"S'ok."

Darguni wandered over and put his hands on the shimmery parts of Tyrande's dress. "Pretty."

"Is that Darguni?" She gasped. 

"I think the trip through the portal accelerated his already fast growth." 

"That's concerning." 

"You're telling me." 

"I think we're prepared to try again."

"Why so soon?" Grogek frowned. 

"The longer we wait; the better chance the dark star has to grow. We need to keep at it at every conceivable moment in order to fully eradicate it."




For the Whored Ch. 073



"The sooner we fix me, the better." Elunara stuffed a chocolate in her mouth. "Besides, Grogek's been feeding me, so to speak. I felt stronger before I ever touched the basket." 

"I find it interesting that I don't feel like she's done anything." Grogek kissed her temple. "She may take energy from me, but not in a way that I can feel or drains me."

"Now that I am aware of it, I feel it." Elunara sighed. "It's not noticeable as a transfer, but like, the physical contact lifts me up somehow, and that feeling slowly builds and trickles and builds and trickles. I'll have to experiment with it more when I get home." 

"The town will rejoice." Tulani grinned. "Speaking of which, Eloise will be pleased with me. I secured some nice fabrics to take back with me." 

"Did you get any for your own studio?"

"Shoot, I didn't even think of that."

"Don't forget." Elunara wiped her hands on a napkin and stood up. "Let's go... purge or something." 

Grogek stood up and turned to Tyrande. "She doesn't remember speaking to us in the Temple."

"What?" 

"I remember closing my eyes and seeing this bright light... and then I woke up here."

"But that's impossible, you were completely lucid and foul mouthed." 

Elunara shook her head. "Not me. Well, not that I remember, Grogek theorizes that maybe Elune used me to speak, and I could say that, using my body as a puppet, she was stuck with my words." 

"Truly bizarre." Tyrande whispered. "Well, come with me." 

Back in the Temple, the set up was arranged again, with Elunara sitting in the center. 

"This time, I want Grogek and Tulani to be by her side, as they are the ones who gave us what we had last time."

Tulani pointed to a spot on the ground. "Darguni, sit here and be a good boy, OK?"

"Ok, Momma Tuly."

"He's already speaking better." Elunara sighed. She closed her eyes and leaned against the statue. The channeling began and she felt light headed.

Once again, Elunara was lifted into the air. Grogek and Tulani put their hands on her legs and watched as the tendril of light poured from her body and wrapped around her. The dark came out as well, larger than it had been when it fled. Tulani closed her eyes and focused on giving Elunara her energy. Grogek grabbed the creature again. It seared his hand, but still he grappled with the foul creature. It was like fighting a big oily snake. 

"Gods damn you, you cannot have my wife." He growled at the thing.

"It's so strong!" Called Tyrande. "It fights us, even the purification ritual will fail if we cannot make head way."

Darguni stood up and ran over, jumping into the pool and sloshing his way to the center. He climbed up on the statue and wrapped his arms around Elunara's legs. "Momma!" He cried. 

A surge of power caused the tendril of light to glow brightly and attack the dark with more ferocity. It broke apart in Grogek's hand and fell completely into the pool where it hissed and sizzled as it dissolved. Elunara was lowered back down and laid against the statue. 

Darguni climbed in her lap and patted her cheek. "Momma?"

Elunara opened her eyes and looked around. She sat up and rubbed her head. "Is it me?" She asked.

"What?" Grogek peered into her eyes. 

"Oh, it looks like I gained control this time. I can work with it." 

Everyone stared at Elunara.

"Hello, my devout. I know I don't do this often, but extreme circumstances make the most curious outcomes."

"Elunara?" Tulani asked timidly. 

She shook her head. "Forgive me, but no. Some may call me Elune. What I am is... unexplainable. I have been watching Elunara with great interest for some time now. While she was born from one of my most devout and powerful followers, her heart was locked to me. There would be no way I could reach her until she found a way to unlock her heart." She put a hand on Grogek. "You did that for her. Thank you." She put a hand on Tulani. "You aided in this, and I thank you as well." 

She smiled at the room. "You see, I have always known of Elunara's strange gift and the reason she is how she is. One is just the result of another. It was... strange, but not necessarily bad. You see, Elunara requires physical contact to survive. She takes the freely given energy of another and turns it into... her. It's an interesting thing, because she never takes more than is freely given. When this... dark star invaded her body, it began to leech off that ability, preventing her from returning to full strength." 

"So that means..." Grogek was afraid to touch her.

Elunara nodded. "You did her a great service, by allowing her to be who she is. Had you tried to prevent her... activities, she would have resented you; most likely killed you, and moved on, having never unlocked the ability she now possesses. Admittedly, being able to drag one's soul back from the nether is not an ability I would have attributed to Elunara. However, as I said before, extreme circumstances can lead to the most curious outcomes. 

"So all this time..." Tyrande's eyes filled. "I was so cruel to her."

"Do not worry yourself. Mothers tend to have the worst reactions to their child's... antics. No, Elunara is one of my most cherished children. I have watched her this whole time, waiting to see if I could be of any assistance. Now that she is open to me, I can more freely work. She may need me again, but for now, I release her to the care of her loved ones."

"But I have so much to ask you..." Tyrande knelt. "My goddess."

"There will be time for that later. I have occupied her for far too long." Elunara closed her eyes and leaned back.

Elunara groaned and rubbed her eyes. 

"How are you feeling, love?"

"Like a clefthoof is tap dancing on my head."

Tulani put a cool cloth on Elunara's forehead. "We destroyed the dark star residue."

"Yeay." She said weakly. "When we get home, I'm eating an entire carrot cake by myself. How long this time?"

"Only a couple of days. Do you remember talking to us after?"

Elunara winced. "No?"

"That's fine." Tulani smiled. 

"I want to go home." She whimpered.

"It'll be a couple of days; Tyrande wants to monitor you for awhile longer."

She whined. 

"Momma Ok?" Darguni patted her chest. 

"Momma hurts." 

He climbed under the covers and put his head on her chest. "Hugs feel better."

"Yeah." 

"He has a point." Tulani climbed under the covers and wrapped her arms around Elunara. 

Grogek grinned. "That he does." He slid under the covers and wrapped his arms around Elunara on the other side. 

"Warm." She smiled as she dozed back off.

"Enter." Grogek called to the door. 

Tyrande stuck her head in and blinked at the scene before her. On one side, Tulani's head stuck out, the other side was Grogek, and in the middle she could see the top of Darguni's head. 

"I came to check on her."

"She was awake only briefly, in a lot of pain." Tulani frowned. 

"We figured we'd offer our energy to help her." Grogek brushed the hair out of Elunara's face. 

It was the soft, caring sweetness of the Orc that always threw her mind out of whack. She shook her head and moved into the room, sitting down near the wall. "I have done her a horrible disservice all these years." 

"If you wish to help her, you may lay your hands on her. She would not be upset." Grogek turned on his side and propped up on his elbow. "In fact, it would help her to know you tried."

Tyrande stood up and walked over, kneeling at Elunara's head. She reached forward and put her hands on her shoulders. 

"Whoever is singing really needs to knock it off." Elunara groaned. 

"What are you talking about?" Ask Tulani. "I don't hear any singing."

"Me either." Grogek shook his head. 

"Are you kidding me? They're really freaking loud." She sat up and groaned. "I will find them and my vengeance will be unmerciful." She put a hand to her forehead. "How are you not hearing tha..."

Grogek sat up and put his hand on her cheek, turning her face to him. "Love? Oh, it looks like she's in a trance."

Tulani sat up and looked. "Oh, dear." 

"You have a really obnoxious way of making yourself known." Elunara looked around at the shuddering darkness. She stared at the pretty Night Elf lady sitting on a rock. 

"Forgive the flair for dramatics; it's often difficult to get your attention."

"What are you doing to me now?"

"Well, hopefully this time you actually remember what I have to tell you. I am giving you your body back. Your family went a long way to helping you recover; I'm quite impressed by them. In any event, with a little more... affection you'll be back to bouncing every guy you deem attractive."

"Great, now you're a smartass."

"Oh no, I find it all quite interesting. You feed off of the energies of others. But not like a parasite. More like a willing transference. I've only found something like that in beings like me. You do it kind of benevolently. You offer yourself to them and in return, you feed. You only take what they offer, never more. Many have found this practice disgusting and vulgar, it goes against the norm. But it's beautiful in its own strange way."

"What are you saying?"

"All those men, and occasional woman, are the result of your need to feed on their energies. I use feed and it sound awful, but it's true. You have such a backlog of stamina, because of how you obtain your energy. Far be it for a being of purity and chastity to tell you to continue bonking the brains out of every man you meet. However, I think you'd do it regardless of WHAT I told you to do."

"Damned skippy."

She giggled. "I love your phrases. Anyhow, I helped protect you until you could be cleansed of the Dark Star. Now that you are, I shall be on my merry way, always watching you with a keen sort of interest."

Elunara blinked, Grogek's face filled her vision. 

"Love?"

"Huh. My head isn't hurting anymore." 

"How do you feel?" He ran his fingers down the side of her face. 

"Pretty good actually. Elune wanted to have another one of her little chats." Elunara shook her head. "In fact, I remember all of them now." 

"What did she say?" 

Elunara looked back at Tyrande. "That she has such a huge interest in me, because I have an ability that she has only seen in beings like her." 

"Like her?" Tyrande whispered. 

"Yeah, like the Naaru, or the light, or even spirits. She says it's all connected somehow, and I... feed off of the men. She called it benevolent." 

"All this time, I've done you so wrong."

Elunara waved her hand. "Don't even go there. My actions weren't exactly helpful, and Fandral would have lost his marbles if you hadn't banished me. Let's just call the whole mess even." 

Tyrande wrapped her arms around Elunara.

"And... don't do that too often, it makes me feel weird."

Grogek and Tulani laughed. 

Tyrande took Elunara's hands. "Come, it's been so long since you were here."

Sae stuck her head in the room. "Ma'am... I have a little problem."

"Whatever could it be?"

"Word of an Orc in Darnassus has travelled quickly to Stormwind and beyond, there's... a crowd." 

Elunara heard a familiar whisper. "I left you a gift." She turned and looked, but saw nothing. 

Tyrande walked to the window and looked out. "Oh! Oh no." She shook her head. "They misunderstand."

"I'll handle it." Elunara stood up and took Darguni's hand. She nodded to Grogek and Tulani. "Follow." She made her way downstairs and to the steps of the inn. In front of her, a mob of men and women of all Alliance races stood before her. Many were adventuring parties and she suspected there was a raiding party in there. They began to call names at Grogek. 

Elunara flung her arms down at her sides. "SHUT UP!" She screamed. A band of light flew from the center of her being out into the crowd, knocking them all to their asses. They all sat and stared in confusion.

"That's BETTER!" She gestured to Grogek. "THIS IS MY HUSBAND, YOU ASSHOLES! He is MINE he is OF THE ALLIANCE! HE is NOT for you asswipes to attack or hunt down or otherwise cause discomfort! You try and you deal with MY WRATH!" She sent out the wave again, knocking down those who had tried to stand. "THIS is MY child! You will NOT HARM HIM! YOU UNDERSTAND, YOU MORONS?"

They scattered. 

"You gotta teach me that one." Sae grinned. 

"Sorry, that was Elune's parting gift. Not sure I could even do it again."

"Fascinating." 

"Understatement."

"Well, that's one way to deal with them." Tyrande made a face. 

"My husband. Mine. No one is taking him from me again." Elunara clung to Grogek's arm.

He laughed. "My vicious little she-wolf." He kissed her temple. 

"Wait 'til we get home." She grinned. "I'll show you vicious."

"I await the moment." He stroked her hair. 

"I do ask that since you are here, that perhaps you take a day or two to enjoy your ancestral home?" Tyrande smiled. 

"Sure, why the hell not?" 

"Forgive me for being forward..." Grogek turned to Tyrande. "But I've been curious to examine one of those glaives." 

"He can be nice and let her try out his axe." Elunara grinned. 

Tyrande turned to one of the sentinels. "Julia, can you let him hold your glaive?"

"Yes ma'am." Julia held up the weapon.

Grogek took it carefully and examined the blade. "I like the design, nice heft to it. And this is the thing you caught and threw back?"

Elunara laughed. "Sheer dumb luck, I assure you. I was just as shocked as Shylena was." 

Grogek held up his hand and flexed it. He grabbed the handle of his axe and grinned. "Oh, I like that." He dropped it blade down and gestured to it.

Julia walked over and tried to yank up the axe. It didn't budge. She tried to lift it and barely got it off the ground. Curious, Tyrande tried to life the axe and gasped in shock. She tried several times to lift it, only to just get it above her knees. 

"That thing is HEAVY!" She gasped. 

Elunara put her hand on the axe handle. "This thing?" She hefted it up and on to her shoulder. "Yeah, it's a little heavy." 

Grogek barked out a laugh. "You have no idea how much she enjoys doing that." 

"How in the world?"

"Years and years of getting men off." Elunara winked and gave the axe a twirl. "It's a neat party trick to pull on asshole trainees who think they're so damned tough."

"How do I dismiss it?"

"Decide you don't want it anymore."

The axe vanished. "Nice." He handed the weapon back to Julia. "Yes, Elunara rules us all with an iron first."

"Is THAT what you call it?" Tulani giggled. 

"No, that would be the velvet glove." He grinned. 

"Is it any wonder I love these idiots?" Elunara grinned. 

Tyrande shook her head. "After all this time, I finally understand Elunara. But I still can't believe I'm sitting here listening to you two discuss Elunara like you do. It just boggles my mind." 

"Actually," Tulani smiled softly. "What's surprising are the things we have done in order to please her." 

"Tulani..."

She shrugged and winked at Elunara. 

"I think you like having that little thing to embarrass me with." 

"Possibly." She put her hands behind her back. 

"Do I even want to know?" 

"None but the three of us will ever know."



For the Whored Ch. 074



The next day, Tyrande had the mages set up in Rut'theran village. 

"I wish you'd stay longer."

"I have to get back. I'm going crazy here. Maybe I'll come back to visit another time. Jordan and Zelinnia must be worried sick. Knowing Zelinnia, she's driven herself into a psychotic frenzy. Can't be healthy for the baby." 

"Can't be healthy for Renwa." Grogek snorted.

Elunara hugged Tyrande. "Thank you." 

"Come back to me, my child." 

"Eh, I already did it once, I can do it again." 

Elunara held Darguni this time. Tulani stepped through first, followed by Elunara. Grogek looked back. "It's been an honor." Holding his breath, he stepped through.

Elunara helped Tulani stand up. "I must have tripped on something." 

"Happens sometimes with these things. Is it COLDER to you?"

Grogek appeared, and they started walking to town. 

"Is it colder than when we left?"

Grogek sniffled. "Yes, it's the beginning of winter." 

"That can't be right." She sat Darguni on the ground and took his hand. 

She saw Jordan at the top of the hill and she waved her arm. He dropped off all of his armor and ran down the hill. Once he reached her, he scooped her up and spun her around. He kissed her soundly. 

He ran his hands through her hair and across her cheeks. "Baby, I've missed you so much." 

Elunara laughed. "I was only gone a week."

"No. No, Baby you've been gone almost two months." 

"Fuck that time warp shit." 

"Unca oran!" Darguni tugged at Jordan's shirt.

"The hell? Is that Darguni?"

"The portal there made him jump severely, I have no idea what coming back will do to him."

Jordan took a deep breath. "Well, everyone's been going crazy to know what happened."

She wrapped her arm around him. "It's really complicated; I might have to just do a town meeting. How many did we design Renwa's office to hold?"

"About fifteen. Also, your prisoner has become obnoxiously irate that he hasn't been allowed to speak to you." 

"Ugh, I forgot about that asshole." 

"We have not told him that you were gone, because we feared he would try something. We've told him you've been commanding your troops."

"Hah!" Elunara shook her head. "I've been possessed by the spirit of Elune. I wish that was a euphemism." 

"Now I really want to know." 

"I require you, Renwa, Zelinnia." She tapped her cheek. "Those are the most important to know, but I'm wondering if it's worth leaving it to rumor, or if everyone should know. I need Ina, Leslia, and Tulani can tell Eloise if she so feels it. The Finisters need to know... Mostly because of Darguni."

"inister!" Darguni clapped his hands. 

"That is freaky." Jordan shook his head. He bent down and picked up the pieces of his discarded armor. He looked back at Grogek and Tulani. "Ah, forgive me." He put his hand on Grogek's shoulder. "Welcome back big guy. And I missed you too Tulani." He kissed her on the cheek.

Grogek whacked Jordan on the back. "We can forgive your enthusiasm." 

"We would do the same thing." Tulani smiled.

"Gods it feels good to be back. I'm already..." She was near tackled by Jerry and Louis; it took Grogek pushing her back on her feet. "Well, now I really feel the love." She snorted. "Guys, I need air to breathe..."

They backed up. "I'm sorry; you were just gone so long."

"So I've been told."

The pair of them saluted Grogek. 

"Momma?"

Elunara pointed. "Jerry. Louis."

"Erry! Ouis!" He clapped.

"Is that Darguni?" 

Elunara sighed. "It's going to be a long day. Let's put our stuff in the house, and then I'm going to Renwa's. Let's start the explanations with Renwa and Zelinnia and us, might as well get Ina and Leslia since they will need to know what happened. Jerry, Louis, you round up Mark and Gerald. Grogek will need to discuss the missing time with what you guys have been doing. I will also offer you guys some basic explanations. I'm going to need the WHOLE town to recognize Darguni as he is, and as he might change in the next few days. So start telling anyone who asks; that Darguni aged rapidly due to the portal time warp thing.

"Your call." Grogek shrugged. 

"Ugh, my head hurts all over again." 

In Renwa's office, Elunara chose a seat and closed her eyes, leaning back. 

"Are you alright?" Grogek brushed her hair out of her face. 

"My body is still out of whack. I'm getting... influxes of energy, but they're being sucked into storage. Does that make any sense?"

"If I understood the explanation, then yes." 

"Alright. I also think the portal and the time change has thrown of my sense of balance." Her eyes popped open as Zelinnia landed in her lap.

"I was SO worried!" She cried. 

"Oh, sweetie, don't cry." 

"I can't help it." She muttered. "I'm pregnant. The wrong color flower makes me burst into tears." 

"She's telling the truth." Renwa sighed. "But she has been driving me batty since you left." 

Elunara wrapped her arms around Zelinnia and buried her face in Zel's hair. She took a deep breath. "That feels good." She murmured.

"Where is Tulani?"

"Tulani will be along shortly." Grogek nodded "She had to see the Finisters about Darguni's condition."

"Condition? Is something wrong? Nothing happen to him did it?"

"Zel, if you don't stop squirming, I might smack you. Darguni is fine; you'll see him in a minute." 

"Are you alright?" Zelinnia backed up and frowned. 

"I think I need to fuck something." Elunara grumbled. 

"Love, are you OK?"

"I don't know what's wrong. When we left I was fine, eager... now it's like I'm just so tired. I wonder if I..."

Zelinnia frowned and wiggled out of Elunara's lap. She poked Elunara. "What's wrong with her?"

Grogek peeked into her eyes. "Damn, she's gone into another trance."

"Another?" Asked Renwa.

"You idiot."

Elunara looked around and sighed. "What NOW Elune?"

"You're blocking your own power." 

"What?"

"You're so afraid that your ability might hurt the people you love, you're refusing to use it. It's literally bouncing off of you instead of absorbing it."

"But, Zelinnia's pregnant, and no one agreed to it..."

Elune sighed. "Stop being stupid. Nothing has changed. You never hurt anyone with it before, AND it is energy freely given to you. They don't have to know that they are, because they already DID. When they shower you with love, they are giving you that energy. Here they are, practically forcing it on you, and you're refusing to eat. Now you're tired and cranky. Eat, little one. Or the energy is wasted into the nether and nobody is happy with you." 

Elunara sighed and opened herself to it. She absorbed the energy floating around her. "That... that does feel better."

"Good girl. Now, stop blocking yourself, I don't want to have to come back just to lecture you again." 

Elunara blinked and shivered. 

"Are you cold, my love?"

She looked around the room at the people she'd ordered gathered. "No, but Elune did just slap me for blocking my ability." 

Grogek seemed to relax. "Oh, is that all. Wait, why were you blocking?" He tensed

"Because I didn't want to hurt anybody, but she said I didn't have the capacity. That I'm just eating what's given to me."

"Whaaaat are talking about?" Zelinnia backed up a step. 

Elunara stood up and stretched. She did feel loads better. "Renwa, you're going to love this..." She sighed. "It turns out, that, all of my life I have had an ability. I... convert the affection, attention, positive energy directed at me, into fuel for my body. All of this time, when I have sex with someone, or have positive interactions, and physical intimacy, I absorb that energy as food. I cannot feed on an unwilling target, nor can I glut myself on a willing one. I can never take more than they themselves have already given." 

"So all those missions I sent you on..." Renwa began. 

"It was so nice of you to buy me dinner." She grinned. "Just now, I was worried that my ability might hurt Zelinnia, so I was blocking. But, all I was doing was preventing myself from absorbing the energy she had already given out. Giving me a nasty headache." 

"How did I give you energy?"

"By showing me affection. You would never feel me taking it, and I could never take more than given, even by accident. It... doesn't work like that. Or so Elune says."

"You speak as if she spoke to you directly." Leslia frowned.

"She did." Elunara shrugged. 

"In fact, at one point, Elune used her to speak." Tulani nodded. 

"To make a long story even more confusing, apparently Elune has always had an interest in me, because the ability I have is only ever seen in its various forms, in beings like her. She was fascinated with how I absorbed energy and how I chose to manifest this ability. She has been watching me from the start. When I used my storehouse of energy to save Jordan, this interest grew. When I used the energy to save Grogek, I opened myself to something called a dark star. The dark star found my freshly tapped energy well and how I consume energy to be to its liking."

"A dark star would have eventually corrupted her body and destroyed us all." Tulani sighed. 

"So Elune came into my body and tried to help me fight it until something else could be done. Once the Dark Star was removed, she explained everything else to me." 

"The combined might of her family, was able to destroy this entity in the Temple of the Moon in Darnassus." Grogek nodded. "I think Darguni's energy was the tipping point." 

At his name, Darguni jumped up and climbed in Grogek's lap. "Papa!" He declared proudly. 

"My heart leaps when he says that." Grogek grinned. 

"What happened to him?" Zelinnia frowned. 

"I think the portal had something to do with it. I fully expect him to jump again soon." Elunara ran her hand over his mop of white hair. 

"Mrs. Finister has agreed to make sure it's well known that this is what Darguni looks like now. Perhaps he can find some friends in the children here." Tulani sighed.

Darguni pointed to Elunara. "Momma!" He pointed to Tulani. "Momma Tuly!" He pointed to Grogek. "Papa!" Finally, he pointed to Jordan. "Unca Ordan." 

Elunara pointed to Renwa. "Renwa"

"Enwa!"

She pointed. "Zelinnia."

"Enia!" 

She pointed. "Ina"

"Ina!" 

"He has much to learn, including pronunciations. I'm not sure how far behind he is on that. We'll just have to see." 

"He's actually pretty smart. I think he'll catch up faster than you think." Tulani shrugged. 

"I still find it hard to believe that Elune communicated through you." Leslia sighed. 

"Well, Tyrande believes it; would you like to take it up with her?"

Ina sighed loudly. "Don't make me break you two up again."

"I just find it hilarious that, all this time, we thought Elunara was "the whore" and she was actually EATING." Jordan shook his head. "Gives whole new meaning to "eat you out"." 

Elunara started laughing so hard she tripped backwards over the chair. She landed on her ass with a thud. "Don't interrupt me while I'm eating!" She called.

"Going for a light snack!" Jordan called out. 

"I'm feeling a bit peckish!" She laid back and continued to laugh. 

"Only a nibble!" Called Tulani.

"I could eat a cow!" Jordan bit his lip.

"Someone pass me the tauren!" Elunara cackled.

"FAST FOOD!" Grogek cackled. 

"A feast for the senses!" Called Elunara.

"Time to make a sandwich!" Jordan dropped down into a chair and continued to laugh.

"Peanut butter?" Elunara snorted.

"EWW!" Jordan shook his head.

"Alright you lunatics!" Renwa called. "Enough with the food jokes." 

"Oh, don't starve yourself." Elunara called out. The four of them burst into laughter. 

"Lu, get the hell out of my floor." Renwa sighed.

"Alright, alright." Elunara climbed up into the chair. "Spoilsport." 

"Does this change my town any?"

"Not a bit. All it really did was explain some things. On a fascinating note, if I'm to understand the situation right, then south orchard is a buffet table for me. The positive energy spilling off that hill... yeah." Elunara shook her head. "I didn't understand any of this until Elune showed it to me. Suddenly, all kinds of strange things make sense. And, it appears that if I dump my energy into it, I can rez people? Maybe? I don't know how that works, even Elune couldn't explain it to me. She thinks I have to have a personal connection with them."

"Well, if you're all better now, perhaps you can help me with my little prisoner problem?"

"Yeah, that guy..." Elunara sighed. "Has he given you anything?" 

"The first few days after you left, he ran his mouth. Then he requested to see you, and I couldn't give it to him. Then he became belligerent and been completely useless." 

"Fine then. Let me have a chat with him. Jordan, Grogek, I need you."

"Of course." 

Elunara grabbed her board and headed down. She marched down to the jails and Jordan brought out her chair. She sat down. "You know, I can't come down here every time you have a whim." She started working on her board.

"Goddess, I know you've been busy, but spare a man just a moment of your time."

"Why? Why should I waste my valuable time on you?" Working on her lines, she decided that he was actually a nice little meal.

"I, Charnak was a leader of a Warsong clan. One of the mightiest warriors our clan can produce. I gave myself to your servitude, and all you've asked of me so far, have been menial and insulting tasks."

"That's the point, dumbass. How dare you expect anything from me. You will work your way up before I let you do anything worthwhile."

"Did he?" Charnak gestured to Grogek.

"In fact he did." Elunara tapped her pencil on her board. "I only kept you because you appealed to me. Perhaps you need exercise. All pets need exercise, don't they, Grogek?" She didn't look at him. "Fine, you sit here like a good little boy, and in three days time, I will put you in my ring and test you."

"Against these pitiful swine? Bring it."

"Against me." She showed her teeth. 

His eyes went wide and he grabbed the bars. "You?"

"Her favorite hobby." Jordan grinned. 

"I wouldn't look so pleased about that." Grogek snorted.

She snapped her board closed and turned to leave. 

"Wait! Another?"

She looked over her shoulder with a glare. "You didn't earn it." She flipped her hair back and left.

"Are you sure about that?" Grogek rubbed a hand down her arm. 

She vigorously shook her head. "That was practically a sit down dinner, the waves of admiration and affection coming off that lunatic." She stopped and turned around, placing her hands on both of their chests, she grinned. "I have two months to catch up on with you," She grinned at Jordan. "And then the usual compliment of both of you... well, I think I can cram enough into me to beat the hell out of that asshole." 

"I have a feeling I'm going to have bruises in unmentionable places." Jordan grinned.

"Then we won't mention them." She grinned. 

Grogek laughed. "Then I shall leave you two to it, and tend to matters down in the training yard."

Elunara considered. "Not going to join us?"

"Nah, Jordan gets some time with you, since he has been without you for two months. We can continue later." Grogek kissed her. "We have all the time in the world. I'm going to go yell at my troops and work up a good sweat for later." He grinned.

"Oh, I see how it is." She giggled. 

"We won't be bothering Tulani, will we?"

"Nah, she took Darguni to be seen around. So people get used to him." 

"Good." He grabbed her up and tossed her over his shoulder. "I've always wanted to do this." He nodded to the random villager standing there and kept on walking. She grinned and waved. 

"I have to ask. To me? Or in general?"

"In general. I think it applies though." He opened the front door and closed it behind him. He made his way up the stairs and then sat her on the bed while he took off his armor and stowed it properly away. 

She giggled. "I find it funny you're doing that."

"This way I don't have to worry about it for the rest of the night. I don't have to lay there going "you didn't do it right." In my head all night." He sighed. "Two months is an eternity of wondering what happened, is she alright, am I ever going to see her again?"

She stood up and walked over to him, laying her hands on his chest. "I am so, so sorry. We were only there a week, and I left the moment they cleared me for health."

He laid his forehead on hers. "I understand that. I also understand that this time warp thing is the reason it feels so long." He rubbed her hands on his chest. "But, baby, I missed you."

"I know you did." She put her hands on his cheeks. "I missed you so very much. I wondered what you were doing without me."

"The hand just doesn't cut it anymore." He chuckled. 

"Mm, I bet."

"I won't lie; I went digging in your stuff and stole some articles of clothing until they stopped smelling like you anymore. I had them washed."

She laughed. "Good boy. I do have one question though."

"What?"

"Why aren't we naked?"

"That's a really good one." He straightened up and yanked his shirt off. 

She leaned forward and kissed his chest. Running her hands up and down his chest she purred. "Oh yes, I definitely miss you."

He laughed and hooked his fingers under the edge of her shirt, pulling it over her head. He cupped her breasts. "No, I missed THESE more."

She laughed. "I'll give you that." 

He pressed his lips to hers and ran his hands on her skin to her back. Tugging her body close, he devoured her mouth. Softly, his hands slid up and down her body, before sliding down to her hips and pants. As he pushed the pants down, he used his hands to guide them to the floor. He kissed that soft spot above her hair. He brought a hand up and ran his fingers through those soft curls. 

Laying her head back, she groaned as one of his hands caressed the curls of her hair, and the other worked their fingers through her soft, slick folds. Her hands came around the back of his head, and she raked her fingers through his hair. He opened her up and laid his tongue flat as he licked the outer edges. His nose buried in that soft point, he inhaled her scent. He darted one finger inside her and elicited a gasp. The hand in the curls slid up and around, gripping her hip. He stood up, still stroking the inside of her. He put his mouth to hers, and danced his lips along with her, darting his tongue in her mouth in time with his finger. 

The hand came out and up, and he cupped both of her breasts. With one hand he teased and taunted the nipple, while caressing her breast. His mouth moved away from hers and nipped along her jaw and down to her neck. He moved his hand back down and slipped two fingers inside of her. He rubbed around and bucked his hand against her folds. Still with his mouth, he made his way to her neck, and that hollow in her shoulder he knew drove her nuts. Her hands came up around his back and she dug her nails into the flesh. 

"Jordan." She whispered. She slid her hands down his back and to his pants. Shoving them down, she gripped his ass. 

He shifted back and forth until the pants hit his feet. He stepped forward and moved his hand out of the way so that he could bury himself in her. He gripped her hips and groaned into her neck. "Baby, I've missed you so much." He murmured as he began to rock his hips, sliding in and out of her. She leaned her head back and he moved from her shoulder, down her chest, where his mouth found her other nipple. He sucked and licked the hardened nipple as he drove himself in and out of her. The other hand came down and he gripped her hips. With a shuddering groan, he released himself into her. 

Elunara kissed the back of his head. 

With a grin he raised his head and looked at her. Releasing the grip she had on him caused him to slide out of her. "Gods, I missed you. I'm not sure what was worse, staring at you every day and not having you, or knowing you were mine, but waiting for you to return." He laid his head on her shoulder. "It was awful anyway you look at it." 




For the Whored Ch. 074



"I'm so mad that you had to wait two months, while it was only a week to me." She sighed. "Even worse is the fact that, before I left I was practically unconscious for a week, then unconscious for most of a week there. I've lost so much time. It's killing me." 

"Yeah, it was definitely more than two months if you look at it from there."

She wandered back to his bed and climbed in. "Well, I'm here, and I want to make up for lost time."

"As long as you're ok."

"Sugar, we've only just begun to refill this battery." She grinned.

He grinned back. "Well, I guess I need to do my part, then."

Grogek opened the bedroom door and peered in. Seeing Elunara asleep, tangled with Jordan made him grin. He quietly closed the door and moved on. 

Tulani was getting ready for bed. "Where's Elunara?"

"Asleep next door." He jerked his head.

"Ah. I didn't hear anything. Well, I guess we sleep without her tonight."

"Yeah. It's fine. Jordan earned his time."

"I guess he did." Tulani sighed. "Poor guy. Two months without her would be just awful." 

"I think either of us would have gone... as she says "bugfuck nuts"." He shook his head. 

"How's she doing?"

"She was practically glowing when I looked in just now."

Tulani grinned. "Between the three of us, we'll refill her depleted supply." 

"You can have next go. I think she'll want individual time with each of us before going in for the multiples. I already had a round before we left. I'll take third, and then we'll see what she wants to do next."

"I'm good with this plan." Tulani smiled. "Goodnight, Grogek." She kissed his cheek.

"Good night." He kissed her on the top of her head. She climbed in her bed and he climbed into his. He ran his hand on the bed. Habit had him uncomfortable with her not there; reason had him amused by it.



For the Whored Ch. 075



She stood on the small platform in front of the training yard, Jordan and Grogek on either side of her. Tulani was safely on the hill with Darguni who'd shot up again overnight. Elunara prayed that was the end of it. She stood in a warrior's pose, staff to the ground. 

"You sure about this?" Jordan frowned.

"He wants a display of power; he's going to get it. I'm fully recharged ad ready to go. Unlike when I fight Grogek, we won't be playing around."

"You call that playing?"

"Have you ever seen either one of us seriously hurt the other?" She shook her head. "I get cuts, yes but nothing like I could. Grogek gets bruises, but I've never gone in for the kill. This time? I get no holds barred. The only mercy I intend to show, is keeping him alive."

"What's the point in all of this?"

"There are orc clans out there, especially in Nagrand that haven't chosen a side yet. I intend to use chuckles to get them stirred up."

"If this works, we will have plenty of new blood to add to our cause." Grogek grinned.

Charnak was led to the center of the ring in chains, his four handlers using poles attached to his collar. Once he was in position, she waved her hand. "Release his bonds!"

The men unlocked the shackles on Charnak's legs and arms. They stepped out of the way as instructed prior. Everyone watching knew their role and played it to the hilt, cheering and roaring. 

"SILENCE!" She bellowed, and everyone quieted down. "Charnak of the Warsong, you have severely pissed me off. You want to see who's in charge? Then FINE, you have it."

"That is not your weapon!" He gestured to her staff.

"This? This is all the weapon you GET! You are not worthy of my blade!" She sneered. "Return his weapon!"

Grogek reached down and picked up the axe, still stained with his blood. He tossed it in the ring with a smirk. "Her staff is more than enough to deal with you." 

"Should you manage to defeat me, I will fight you with my blade." Elunara shrugged. "I severely doubt that's possible." 

He growled. "You insult me." 

She raised an eyebrow. "Do I? I distinctly remember the last time I went after you, you had no defense against me. Did I rip out your teeth? Or were you "just surprised"? We shall see." She stepped off her platform and into the ring. The crowd began to yell and cheer. She shot them a look, and there was a ripple of quiet. 

"They are trained well." He grinned.

"There'd be no point otherwise." She took a deep breath and laid her head back. Opening her mouth she began to sing a traditional war ballad. 

"I love when she does that." Jordan murmured to Grogek. 

"Mm, as do I." 

At the finish of her song, the crowd burst into cheers. The energy pouring into her from them was palpable. She held out her staff. "Let's begin, Chuckles." 

He lunged, she dodged. He swung, she jumped. She taunted him endlessly with dodging and weaving, never letting him land a blow. When he stumbled forward, she went on the attack. She landed blow after blow as she dodged and weaved, leapt and spun. She cracked him in the face, in the legs, and even in the balls. She was impressed by his ability to continue standing after that one. He cleaved, and she jumped on top of his axe and ran up his arm, cracking in the face with the heel of her palm. She dropped down behind him and attacked sensitive areas of the back, before dodging out of the way when he spun on her. 

He roared in pain, anger and humiliation. "HOW ARE YOU DOING THAT?"

"Are you even WORTHY of my weapon? Land's sake." She blocked his axe with the staff and flung it to the side. He went for the weapon and she continued to rain her wrath upon his body. 

He grabbed the weapon up and used it to block her next attack. He kicked out and barely grazed her leg. 

"Oh, are you actually trying now?"

With a roar, he threw the weapon at her. Anticipating him, she caught it and flung it back at him. His eyes went wide and he dodged out of the way. He grabbed it up again and went for her, but she dropped the staff and effortlessly deflected it to the ground. She jammed the heel of her hand under his chin, knocking his teeth together. With her foot, she popped the staff back up, grabbed it and cracked him across the face. He stumbled to the ground, his fist in the dirt, holding him up.

"Do you yield?" 

"I..." 

"I'm going to do you favor, and assume that being stuck in that jail cell for the past couple of months has made you soft. Perhaps I will consent to let you come to the training yard ever so often, just to re-hone your body. When you think you've improved, I will allow you to challenge me again."

With a sigh, he laid down his axe. "I yield." 

She bent down and picked up the axe, effortlessly tossing it back to Grogek. "Good, now go sit in your cell like a good boy. I'll be along when I have time."

"Yes, Goddess." 

The men approached Charnak with shackles. She held up her hand. "I think he's humiliated enough. Just take him back." 

They bowed. "Yes, Ma'am." 

He stared at her with raw lust in his eyes. "Again you show me mercy."

She turned her back and walked up to the platform and resumed her position between Grogek and Jordan. When Charnak was to the edge of the training yard, she called out. "What are you idiots standing around for? BACK TO WORK!" They began to scramble around, trying to get back to their posts.

Back in his cell, he sat down on the bench and leaned back. "I do not understand that woman."

One of his escorts snorted. "The only one who has that claim is Grogek. Everyone else is just too damned afraid of her."

"What of the other one?"

"The pet? He is there by her allowance. Nothing more." The guard motioned to the other three and they left.

"Hmm." 

Outside one of the guards frowned. "It feels so wrong to downplay General Jordan like that."

"Elunara knows how to keep the balance with a hostile captive. I trust her on this. Besides, the whole town knows the truth, and that's what matters."

She shuddered. "Oh my, that was... delicious. Now that I understand the situation so clearly, wow." She tossed her staff by on the rack.

"Explain it to us." Jordan laughed. 

"Every person here was feeding me. It was like the energy poured off of them. Even that idiot was pumping out enough lust at me to make me mildly dizzy." She shook her head. "It's going to take awhile to get use to it, better yet, ignore it. Just, wow." 

"You sound like a succubus." 

"I... sort of am? But less malicious, more benign. If anything, the energy is being thrown at me, and just absorbed. Though the cause is similar." She shook her head. "It's probably best we keep this to just the people that was in that room. People think I'm feeding off of them, and they'll go crazy."

"That, I agree with." Jordan nodded. "The three of us will gladly feed you, anytime." He grinned. 

Elunara gathered up her papers and made her way outside. Darguni ran past with some of the other kids. She shook her head and sighed. She'd lost four years of his life, just to take him to Darnassus. Thankfully, with a little help from everyone else, he was right on track with learning and had caught up quickly. She made her way to the blacksmith's building. 

"Hey Arian. I have some designs I want you to help me with." 

He sat down his tools and reached out for the papers. He frowned down at them. "You're joking, right?"

"I'll pay double what you'd normally charge. Also, I need thee of each. If this works out how I think they will, I'll be ordering a whole lot more."

He groaned. "I'll never live this down."

"Try to make the big ones hollow, the less metal means they'll weight less, which in this case is important."

"Yeah, I'll have to do cast molds of these. Gods, Elunara, you come up with the weirdest shit." 

She grinned. "Just do it."

"Fine. But I want half the fee up front." 

"Done." 

"What are the buckles for?"

"The straps I'm going to have the leatherworker make."

"Oh, geez." 

"Hey, you're getting off easy, wait 'til the glass maker sees the other ones I made up."

"You're making them out of glass?"

"Just trying all the options." She waved. 

He groaned and got to work.

Soon, he came over with a couple of boxes. "Where do you want em?"

"In the library. Most of my work is in there anyway." 

He entered the room and sat the boxes down. Interested, he wandered around the room looking at the drawings on the wall. "Your... subjects freak me out, but the work is quality."

"Good to know you have taste." She pawed through the boxes, taking inventory and checking his work. 

"Hey, you mind if I get one of these done for my wife?"

"Of your wife or of you for your wife?"

"Of me, for my wife. She likes to joke that she'd love a picture of me to stare at."

"Sure, I can arrange you a sitting."

"No funny stuff."

She snorted. "Of course not. I don't touch the devoutly married." She rubbed her hand across the metal, checking for smoothness. "You also do quality work." She nodded. "I have time next Thursday, six o'clock?"

"Yeah, sure." 

Taking a deep breath, he knocked on the door.

Elunara opened it with a grin. "Right on time." 

"I can't believe I found my way in here." He muttered.

"Oh, chill out." She gestured to the chair. "Let's start you off right."

He sat down.

She arranged him to her liking and then sat on her couch, sketching.

"This isn't so bad."

"Here's how I work; I start off with a basic portrait, get bone structure, body type down. When I'm happy with what I got, I switch gears and having you turn or move or what have you. You've requested a nude, so then I have to ask you if you'd like to contribute to Ina's books, or just go for the fancy portrait?"

"I guess I should."

"Good boy. Let's work." 

He stood there in his pants, fidgeting. "I've never been naked for anyone but my wife." 

"Honey, I've seen it all before. Once drew a guy who literally had two inches on him."

"It's not that." He flushed.

"Just relax. This is for your wife. Believe me, I do good work." 

He flushed and pulled down his pants. She nodded appreciatively and continued her work. She asked him to turn for awhile before she finally stood up and snapped her board closed. She reached down and grabbed a lever, yanking the bed higher up and slightly slopped. 

He stared. "So THAT's why you wanted all those parts fabricated."

"Oh yeah, I love this stupid thing." She grinned. "Climb on and I'll get you adjusted."

He followed her instructions and climbed on the strange couch. She adjusted the angle of his head, the tilt of his shoulders, and the positions of his hands. She did so in such a strange and methodical way, that he didn't feel embarrassed by her touching him. Even when she started adjusting his hips and legs, he didn't feel bad, he felt comfortable. He was a little uncomfortable as she started to arrange even his manhood. 

The door burst open and Elunara looked over her shoulder. 

"Get away from my HUSBAND!" 

"Marlene!" He jumped up and put his hands over his crotch. 

"Dammit, do you know how much effort it takes to arrange someone correctly?" Elunara sighed.

Marlene pointed at Elunara. "You get away from him! I know what you do in here!"

Elunara raised her hands and backed up. 

"Marlene, honey, it's not like that." He held up a hand. "I mean, I know what it looks like." He flushed.

"Before dinkers here, puts his foot in his mouth and you put one where the sun doesn't shine, he was doing this for you." 

Marlene froze mid word and stared. "How the hell could he be doing this for ME?"

Elunara picked up her board and popped it open. She tuned it toward Marlene. "He was trying to surprise you with a portrait."

She wandered forward and stared at the spread of pictures. "You did that in one sitting?"

"Yeah, it's a little rough, but I refine as I go along. If you want, I can get you a chair and you can watch everything I do from here on out. He was already weirded out by the process, maybe you can calm him down, and I can get a decent base for my portrait." Elunara shrugged. 

"I..." 

"If you're still not satisfied..." Elunara closed her board and sat it down. She took Marlene by the wrist and dragged her into the library. She lit the lamps. "This is what I usually do."

Marlene wandered around the room, staring at all the pictures. 

"This was what convinced your husband to try to do something special for you." 

"Oh, I feel so dumb." 

Elunara shrugged. "You're not the first, won't be the last. Thus is my life, as the whore."

"I didn't mean to..."

"You didn't. I know what people think I am." She shrugged. "Come, let's get you a chair." Walking out of the library, Elunara pointed at Arian. "Get on the couch; I'm not done with you."

He looked to Marlene. "I'm so sorry, I..."

"Couch." Elunara pointed. She pulled out a second chair and sat it at the head of the couch. "You, sit." She pointed at Marlene. 

Marlene sat down in the chair and blinked. 

"Are you going to interrupt me again?"

"No." Marlene squeaked. 

Elunara nodded and went through the detailed process of getting him rearranged on the couch. He tensed when she returned her attention to his manhood. She gave him a glare and he shrank back into the place she'd left him. Once she was satisfied, she stepped back and examined her work. With a frown she made a few more tweaks to his positioning. Then she sat down, popped open her board and went to work. 

A little while later she made a few more sketches as he got dressed. "I'll have the finished work to you next week." 

"I'm sorry." Marlene frowned. 

Elunara waved her hand. "Don't mention it." 

She headed down to the Blacksmith shop, picture under her arm, wrapped in a blanket. 

"Is that it?" He frowned. 

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

Arian jerked his head back. "I'm not alone."

Elunara shrugged. "You have a good body, don't be ashamed of it." She lifted the blanket. 

"Oh, wow." He rubbed his hand over the glass. "That's amazing."

A wolf whistle had them both jumping in surprise. One of the other blacksmiths grabbed the edge of the picture. "Oh man! Arian, look at you!" 

"Guys." Arian flushed. 

"First metal dicks, now this? Man." The guy shook his head.

Elunara snorted. "What are you packin?" Before he could react, she yanked out his pants and looked down. "Not enough to compete." She let the pants snap back. "Come on; let's go give your wife a prize." She flicked her eyes up and down. "Well, ANOTHER prize." 

"How do you always know what to say to people?"

"Decades of experience." 

He raised his eyebrows as he pushed his front door open. "Marlene?"

Marlene stuck her head out. "Oh, is that what I think it is?"

Elunara pulled the blanket off the painting. 

"Oh!" She took the painting in hand and looked down at it. "Oh, my." She held it to her chest. "This is going up in the living room!"

"Oh, Marlene, please don't." 

"You just try and stop me!" She giggled. "You don't suppose you could do one of me?"

Elunara shrugged. "If that's what you want."

"Yes! Yes I do!" 

Soon, Marlene had a picture of her posing in the nude. She stood with her back to the viewer, looking seductively over her shoulder, a hint of breast present in the scene.

"THAT one is going in the bedroom." Arian grumped. "Can't believe she hung me in the living room where guests can see." He flushed. 

"That's between the two of you. I for one think she has a pretty nice ass." Elunara grinned. "Later."



For the Whored Ch. 076



Elunara sat down her papers and answered the door.

"Um, excuse me... My name's Chrissy, and I was told you could help me."

Elunara jerked her head to the side. "Come on in." She closed the door. "What can I help you with?" 

"You see, I have a... female problem." She twiddled her fingers. "Not the kind Ina can help with." She added hastily. "Some of the women said that you helped them with their problems and... umm."

Elunara sighed and leaned against a post. "Sit down and spill it. Don't worry about what you have to tell me, I've heard it all before." 

"Everybody masturbates, right?"

"Well, they should. Some don't, and I feel bad for them. Women especially try to avoid the topic, though that's just stupid. Men are men, so they know men. Women on the other hand, are a mysterious subject shrouded in a veil of fog. They don't know shit about us, so if we don't do it ourselves and find out what we like, how the hell are they going to know?" 

"Yes! Exactly!" Chrissy pointed. "Some of the others were rude to me, told me I was vulgar. Said if I wanted to discuss vulgar topics I should find you."

Elunara raised an eyebrow. "Is that all this is?"

"Well, no..." She fidgeted. "You see... when I was..." She made vague hand gestures. "Doing that to myself, I decided to... umm well..."

"Not a mind reader, sweetie."

"I touched my butt." She whispered.

Elunara laughed and put her hands on her own ass. "Touch mine all the time."

"No! Not... not like that."

"Oh, the anus."

Chrissy flushed. "I mean. I rubbed it. I liked it. I... went a little farther. I liked that too. I mean... I know it's gross and gross stuff comes out of it, but it..."

"Felt good, like a turn on?"

"Yes." She sounded defeated.

"You should try it with an actual dick up there. It can blow your mind."

"You've done it?" She whispered in revered awe.

"Honey, I've lost track of how many times I've done it. I quite enjoy it myself. But I gotta warn you, you can't go from timid touches to an entire dick up your ass, you have to build. You ruin it once, you could seriously injure yourself."

"Oh." She frowned.

"I can teach you to train it. Being what it is, you have to work on it and train it, long before you go for the actual guy. However, if you really want to do this, I know just the guy I can set you up with."

"He'll... train it?" Chrissy swallowed.

"No, I'll teach you how to train it, and you can work on it yourself, and we can build you up for that."

"Will it hurt?"

"There might be some stretching and such, but no, pain means you did it wrong." Elunara shrugged. "The guy can come later. But, I do need to know if you're ok with that. In fact, I wouldn't even bring the suggestion to him until we know you're really ok with this. No need to disappoint two people." 

"When do we start?"

"I have time free right now." 

"Oh, ok. How do we start?"

"Get up a sec." Elunara reached out and pulled a couple of levers to make the bed couch shift into a seated slop. "Now, two options; First get completely naked. Second, hike your skirt up so I can see. I recommend the first. Keep in mind, I am a woman and I'm married to a woman, your body is just another woman. I care not for any "embarrassing" body parts. There is no embarrassment in front of me, because I really do not give a damn."

"I guess I'll go for naked."

"You can fold your clothes up over there." 

Once Chrissy was comfortable in the chair, Elunara pulled up a chair in front of her. 

"Now, first and foremost, every single time, you must get horny. You must start with the basics and go for the thing that gets you the wettest. Never start with the ass itself. You need lube, and the best lube comes directly from your pussy."

"You want me to do that now?" 

"Remember, there is no right or wrong, so long as it gets you going. If you need my assistance, let me know. I'm told I can be imposing."

"Alright." She timidly ran her fingers through her hair and slipped down to the lips."Can you not stare...?"

Elunara flipped her hair to the side. "Here, let's move this along." She reached over and put her hand on top of Chrissy's. "There we go, just like this." She began to help Chrissy stroke her fingers up and down. "Don't be afraid to really get in there, and spread a little. "There you go."

"Oh! Oh that's much better."

"Years of practice." Elunara raised her hand up and looked at her wet fingers. "Nice. Alright, from here, you can start to play with the anus, really spread the stuff around." She reached over and picked up a thin metal bar. "This I designed myself. It has many uses, but for our intents and purposes, you will be using it on your ass. It's nice and small so it won't hurt you, nice and smooth for a good insertion. I want you to stick it in yourself to get it nice and wet, then when it's drippy, you move it to the ass. Always use it slow, and you may have to shift a little to get in comfortable. This keeps your fingers nice and clean. You just have to wash it after EVERY use, and once it's in your ass, you don't go back to the front. Never cross. Always go front to back. OK? Come on, let's practice."

Afterwards, Chrissy clutched the little bag Elunara gave her. "Thank you! Thank you!"

"Yeah, yeah. Get." Elunara grinned.

A couple of weeks later, she made her way out to the training yard. She waved to Grogek but kept on moving. She stopped by the tree. 

"I found what you're looking for."

Gerald snorted. "What was I looking for?"

"A woman with an ass half as nice as mine and a desire for it to be played with." 

He stared at her. "What?"

"Well, if you're not interested in some virgin ass." 

He grabbed her arm. "Don't shit with me."

"I'm not. I've been training her up the past couple of weeks. A little while longer and she'll be ready for the real thing."

"Shit."

"I told her to not hold her hopes up. That a little fun is one thing; an actual relationship takes something else. She wants to try the full thing, and figure out if he's a match later." 

"Oh, man." 

"Next week, I have an opening for 5 o'clock, don't be late." She waved as she wandered off.

Elunara opened the door. "You're right on time. I was just getting her ready."

Chrissy looked at Gerald and blushed deeply. "Oh, you're Captain Gerald."

"Yeah, he's an old friend of mine. He has volunteered to help you with your... wish." 

She held out her hand. "I'm sorry, I've never done this before."

Gerald laughed and shook her hand. "Elunara can arrange any damned thing she likes." 

"Alright, are you still willing to do this Chrissy? You can back out any time."

"Yes! I mean, no! I mean... I want to. Kinda badly." She fiddled her fingers. "I mean, I... I always thought I'd find a man first and figure this stuff out later."

"Pfft, what's the fun in that?" Elunara went to her couch bed and yanked the levers and unclipped the locks. 

"I cannot get over that thing." Gerald snorted. 

"You've done this before?" Chrissy flushed.

"With Elunara, same as you, I suspect." 

"I prefer men." Chrissy put her hands to her face. "But only Elunara knew what I wanted and could do it without hurting me." 

"Would you stop being adorable and come lay on the couch?"

"Oh! Yes, right." Chrissy tugged off her clothes and tried to not look in Gerald's direction. CAPTAIN Gerald she corrected herself. She climbed in the chair thing and made herself comfortable. 

"Alright, you know my rule, it applies to everyone." 

"Of course, Nara." Gerald rolled his eyes.

"Call me Nara again and I cut off your dick and find her another suitor. Get with it." 

Chrissy looked up. "Which rule?"

"The woman's pleasure before your own. Meaning," Gerald ran his fingers through her folds. "I get you nice and slick before anything happens."

"Oh! Oh my... I... I thought Elunara was good at that." Chrissy buried her face in the pillow. 

"Now remember, my house is for play. If you contact each other outside of this house, no awkward conversations. This didn't happen, unless while IN here, you agreed to SEE if anything happens. Got me?"

"Yes!" Chrissy yelped.

"Of course."

Elunara leaned against his ear. "She enjoys herself and I'll get you her file." She murmured.

He pulled his pants down and slipped out his dick. He positioned himself and slid into her front. Chrissy gasped and dug her fingers into the fabric. He slid in and out of her and she moaned. He looked to Elunara who nodded and he began rubbing his thumb against Chrissy's ass. When he thought he'd done enough, he pulled out of her and shifted on the couch. 

"Don't clench Chrissy, you'll just ruin it for yourself." Elunara walked to the other side of the couch and put her hand on Chrissy's head. "Breathe, relax, feel. Breath, relax, feel. That's my good girl. I got you the best. Alright? Gerald's a pro. Breathe, relax, feel." Elunara looked up at Gerald and nodded. "Slowly" she mouthed. "Breathe... That's my good girl, relax... there you go."

Gerald lined himself up with Chrissy's ass again and began to slowly press himself in. 

Chrissy gave a little gasp as Gerald made his way in. 

"There you go." Elunara looked up. "Breathe, relax, feel." She held up her hand. "There you go; he's all the way in. How does that feel?" 

"It's... kind of good." 

Elunara made a motion with her hand. "He's moving now, feel it?" 

"Oh, wow." She grabbed Elunara's hand. "It's a little tight, but... wow."

Elunara signaled Gerald and he increased his pace, rubbing his hands on Chrissy's ass and back. Once Elunara was able to free herself of Chrissy's grasp, she went around and checked the progress. 

"Good, go for it, but remain gentle." She patted Gerald's shoulder. She leaned over the couch, her ass in the air, as she laid her face in front of Chrissy. "Doing good?" Elunara rolled her eyes as she felt Gerald grab her ass. 

"I like this."

"Well, come back next session and I'll have a surprise for you." She looked up and rolled her eyes at Gerald. "You up to come back?"

"You know me." 

"Ya'll have at it. I'm going to get my papers." 

Gerald was wiping himself off with one of the towels Elunara kept around, while Chrissy had her back to Gerald, getting her clothes back on. Elunara passed him the folder. "As promised." 

"Elunara, you lied to me."

"Huh?"

"Her ass is totally better than yours." He grinned, saluted and walked out.

"Did... did he mean that?"

Elunara shrugged. "Gerald tends to avoid saying anything he doesn't mean."

"So..." Elunara eyed Gerald. "I have to ask, what did you mean by your parting shot the other day?" 

Gerald handed her back the folder. "Her ass is better than yours, because it's about to be mine." 

Elunara laughed and shook her head. "So, you're keeping to your word?"

"That I'd marry any ass half as good as yours?" He sighed. "I guess I have to keep to my word, don't I?" He grinned. "Of course, with how YOU work, I now have to wait for an opening to start to pursue her. I've read your report, which is... vivid as always. In any event, I think we'll suit just fine, sexual preferences notwithstanding."

"I'll clear it for you tonight. She..." Elunara chuckled. "Has apparently had something of a crush on you. Was thrilled to the moons that I'd put her right in the cross hairs of... "The most eligible bachelor since Jordan went off market". She'd be out here flirting with you, asking for private lessons, if it wasn't for my steadfast rules and all."

"Oh, damn."

Elunara patted him on the shoulder and walked away. 

Once Gerald was back buried in Chrissy's ass, Elunara pulled out a large metal object. "This here is another one of my little inventions, and it's meant to aid in these sorts of situations." She showed it to Chrissy before going around to Gerald. "See, when he's buried in here, it's difficult to get around to the front. With this, after he pulls out, he can slide it in like this..." Elunara ducked between Gerald's legs and slipped the metal dick into Chrissy's pussy. 

She groaned and grabbed the fabric. 

"So now, there's that extra bit of resistance. I have some objects to use to attach it, but for now... feel how his dick rubs up against it, giving you all the more..." Elunara laughed as Chrissy began to drip. "Came already, didn't you?"

"Yes." She whimpered. 

"Well, you can keep it." Elunara slipped it back out. "You can use it solo for great effect, or you can use it in conjunction with this." She began to wipe the metal dick off. 

Gerald pulled out with a grunt and grabbed a towel. 

"I'm going to get the straps and show you how they work." Elunara left the metal dick on the bed. 

Chrissy climbed out of the contraption and picked up the metal penis. "Fascinating how she comes up with these things." 

"She's always doing weird shit like that." Gerald blinked. "Uh, sorry. Language."

"No, it's fine. You've known her long?"

"Oh, years and years. She's completely nuts, but it works for her."

"Did you ever... love her?"

"Ugh, no. I've seen where she's been. I'd explain it all to you sometime, but you know her rule about contact outside."

"Well, maybe we could... talk her out of it?"

Gerald reached out, ran his thumb across her cheek. "Wouldn't that be nice?" He whispered. 

Chrissy's breath quickened. "Maybe she doesn't have to know?"

"Know what?" Elunara stepped out from behind the door.

"Hey, na... err Elunara, I was wondering... I know you and your rules and all..."

Her face drooped in annoyance. "Since when do you beat around the bush?"

Gerald ran his fingers through his hair. "You always have to be so difficult."

"Says the man who won't even make his request." She dropped the leather strips on the bed and put her hands on her hips. "Spill it, dinky."

"I just wanted to speak to Chrissy outside of your little... sessions."

Elunara groaned. "You idiot. The rule is to protect YOU from the possibility that SHE might think you taking her virginity BOUND you or some such nonsense. I told you, everything that happens in here stays in here unless ALL PARTIES agree that it's ok to talk about outside. Next time, just freaking ask." Elunara tossed up her hands. She turned and pointed at Chrissy. "Is it OK that he pursue you outside of my office?"

Chrissy blushed and nodded. "Y-yes!"

Elunara pointed at Gerald. "Is it OK that she pursue YOU outside of my office?"

"Of course."

"Then go fuck each other's brains out for all I care. Now, do you want to know how to attach the metal dick or what?"

Elunara studied a picture as she walked to the door. She looked up and rolled her eyes at Gerald. "Come in then."

"Who is that?" 

She glared at him. "What, dinky?"

"Ugh, don't tell me that's my new nickname."

"It is when I'm pissy."

Gerald shook his head. "Anyway, I came to thank you."

"Things are going well?"

"I do believe I am going to marry her. I just thought I'd let you know before I asked her."

"Go get her, tiger. I'm sure Ina would LOVE to organize another wedding."

"Gods save me." Gerald whimpered as he walked out. 

Jordan leaned over the banister. "Did you just get Gerald a wife?"

"You betcha." She grinned. 

"How about you put down whatever you're working on right now and come upstairs."

"Or you could come try out my fancy couch."

"I've tried your fancy couch. I want you in my bed."

"Well then." She put her paper down on the table and made her way upstairs. She stopped and looked around at the dozens of candles. "When did you do all this?"

He put his arms around her waist and picked her up. "I've been smuggling candles in like a bandit for months. You see, when I came into this arrangement, I knew that the only way to satisfy you, was to find my place." He sat her on the bed. 

"Oh, Jordan."

"Grogek is the big strong orc. He's rough tough and ready for any of your more extreme tumbles." He kissed her and took off her shirt. "Tulani is soft and sweet and... well, female. She could handle any of your sweeter moments and pleasures." He tugged her up and started sliding her pants down. He kissed that place just above her hair. "I knew I had to be in the middle." He brushed his fingers across her hair and folds. "I figured out, that romantic gestures are more my speed and not exactly something the other two are prominent at."

He stood up and kissed her softly. "Let me make love you."

"Always." She smiled.



For the Whored Ch. 077



Elunara was sitting under the tree, sketching, when Darguni flopped into her lap. She'd just barely pulled the board out of the way in time.

"Momma! Bradly says my fang is dumb." 

"Did you tell him that his opinions of your body are dumb?"

"Well, no." 

"Love, everyone has been giving me their opinions of my body all of my life, and it doesn't mean a damned thing. It shouldn't mean anything to you either. I know it hurts at first, but after awhile, it just becomes silly." She kissed his forehead.

"Drina said our family is weird." He pouted.

"Honey, our family IS weird. Most relationships happen between two people. Ours happens between four. Calling us weird isn't even an insult at this point. I like it weird." 

"Why is it so weird?" He frowned and laid his head on her chest. 

"Because I love them. They love me. It just worked out this way." She laughed. "And before you ask, no, it will never be normal. I'm a Night Elf who fell in love with an Orc. That breaks about fifteen laws of logic all on its own. Then came Tulani, and then Jordan. We make it work." 

"Momma Tuly said you make everything alright."

"People were mean to her when she joined me. In fact, she was downright picked on and bullied. And yes, I made it right. Now she holds her head up high."

"That's your power?"

"That's one of my many powers." She lifted his chin. "Remember, weird is the best kind of amazing. You were born of a Night Elf and an Orc. Nothing you ever do will be normal. If you don't embrace the weird now, you may never know peace." 

He considered this for a moment before jumping up and running off. 

She sighed.

Zelinnia sat down and sighed. "I feel like I swallowed a melon."

"Pfft, my entire seven months, I was either too sick to lift my head, or too heavy to move. Enjoy your nice, normal pregnancy."

"In a bad mood?"

"Kids. All they know is what they hear their parents say."

"Ah. Well, Darguni is coming along nicely, even for his... troubles."

Elunara glared.

"Hey, don't be like that. You know that's not what I meant. I'm talking about the rapid age thing."

"Sorry." She sighed. "I had a rough childhood, because everyone expected something out of me that I couldn't give them. I don't like to think about how he's going to grow up." 

"Besides, a Human/Blood Elf baby can't compete with an Orc/Night Elf, but it's still pretty high on the weird scale." She sighed. "That being said, I can't wait to get him or her out of me so I can meet them."

"Still not finding out the gender?"

"We've been debating."

"Hoping for a specific?" 

"We've been debating."

"Fun." Elunara ran a hand over Zelinnia's belly. "Well, when you decide..." Elunara let out a frustrated sigh.

"What? What's wrong?" Zelinnia began to panic.

"Not you, calm down."

"Oh. Then what?"

"I know." Elunara frowned.

"You know what?"

Elunara put her hand on Zelinnia's belly again. "I. Know."

"Oh! Ohh... is it that power thing?"

"Yeah, I can feel the radiating energy, and I could tell you right now, if you wanted."

Zelinnia closed her eyes and debated. "Oh, Gods, tell me! I'm going crazy."

"You're having a girl."

"Oh! Ohh, a little girl, how sweet. Oh! Think of the dresses! And then... oh, she could be friends with Darguni and they'll get along and it'll be amazing. Oh, what if they start dating?"

"Zelinnia, if you start making wedding plans, I WILL hit you in the head."

"Oh, I'm sorry. I just... I want our children to be friends, like we are."

"They will be bound together by their weirdness. You don't need to start arranging marriages now." 

"Oh, I know." She sighed. "Oh geez, I need to tell Renwa."

"Was he against finding out?"

"No, he wanted to know so he could plan. I just thought that if I found out, something bad would happen. But, you told me, so everything is going to be fine."

Elunara kissed her temple. "You and your silly superstitions."

"I am awful, aren't I?"

"Just frustrating, Sweetie." 

"They're marching out that Orc."

"Yeah, we've been letting him hone himself in the training yard. He's been tame as a kitten since I beat the shit out of him." 

"Aren't you worried about him flipping at some point?"

"I'm watching for the signs. Meanwhile, he struts like a peacock."

Zelinnia snorted. "He struts like a male Blood Elf."

Elunara considered. "You're right; he's way floofier than a peacock." 

They shared a giggle. 

She snapped her board closed and made her way down the hill. She sat on the platform and opened her board. "Alright, impress me." 

"I could impress you more if you did not give me such restrictions."

"The no kill rule will remain in effect. Regardless of how much you think it fallacy." 

He bowed. "Your word is law."

She continued to work on her drawings. "Still, impress me."

He moved fast, but her eyes and fingers were always faster. As he worked through his paces against the trainers she had chosen, she sketched. Jordan came in first and fought him back, and then Grogek matched him more for move. She found it interesting to watch, as she continued her quick sketches. When he finally came to an end, dripping sweat, she nodded. 

"I am duly impressed. You have improved since last time." She flipped out the sketch. "This is yours." 

It was him leaping through the air, roaring in rage, axe swinging. He carried the piece of paper like a delicate flower. "Thank you my Goddess." He bowed. He then allowed himself to be led back to his cell. 

"What point is all this?" Grogek snorted.

"I figured you of all people would know. Yes, he's been helping our troops with genuine combat experience, but soon I'm going to release him."

"Release him? Why?"

"So that he may bring me tributes." She grinned. 

"You think it will work?"

"I'm about 90% certain. There's always that element that will say he'd be enraged once he left, yet... I think that by time I finish with him, he'll be so glued to my ass, I'll need grease to dislodge him." 

"I usually don't ask this, but.... do you intend to make use of him sexually?"

"Haven't decided, to be honest. Might bind him, might make him think I'm not as mighty. End result, is that I DO enjoy me some brown Orcs. No idea why." She winked at him.

"Due to his volatile nature, I hope you tell me what you decide."

"I'll let you know as soon as I know." 

Elunara made her way down into the jail. She dismissed the guards, pulled out her own chair and sat down, popping out her board. She'd already told Grogek and Jordan what she was doing. 

"Where are your lovers?"

"Doing what I told them to. That was a dumb question." She arranged everything how she wanted it. 

He stood up and walked to the bars, wrapping his hands around two. "What do I owe the pleasure?"

"I believe I've already told you that I have many roles here. A lot of things I like to do..." She continued with her sketches. "You pleased me the other day."

"Is that so?" His voice went husky, and he was radiating lust like a bitch in heat. 

"So I've come to give you a bit of a private showing."

His hands rubbed up and down on the bars. "What are you here to give me?"

"Here's how this is going to work. You do what I say, and I reward you. Just as before. Only this time, I'm here to see if I care to add you to my PRIVATE collection." 

He ran his tongue along his teeth. 

"So play nice while I finish my sketches" 

After awhile, she stood up and put her board on a stand. She stuck her hand in the cell and grabbed his face. She turned his face left and right, examining him closely. She removed her hand and returned to her sketch board, murmuring praises and insults. 

"Turn."

"What?" 

"Face the wall; I want a good look at your back." 

He did as instructed and flexed the muscles in his back. She rolled her eyes but continued to mutter and draw. "Not bad, not bad." She murmured. 

"Alright, I am going to open the door and step in. You make a move I don't like and... well, you get the rest." 

He turned around, his eyes wide, but cautious. "Yes, my Goddess." 

"Good boy." She opened the door and stepped inside. She proceeded to run her hands over his body, making marks where they suited her. He was shivering by time she finished and stepped back out. "Not bad." She murmured as she continued to add detail to her work. 

He peered over her shoulder at the many pages spread out with sketches of all kinds. Even the ones of his eyes had him entranced by her.

"Lose the pants." She commanded.

He blinked back to the present and stared. "What?"

"Lose the pants. I'm going to do a complete job of this."

He scrambled to get his pants off. He was already rock hard and he grinned at her.

She stepped back and considered, pencil tapping her chin. "Not bad at all." She made a face that said impressed and went to sketching on her board. 

"Why don't you try for yourself?" He panted in her ear. 

She whacked him on the nose with her pencil. "Not until my sketches are done." She made several notations. 

He rubbed his nose and frowned. 

She got on her knees and examined his legs and feet. "Turn around." When he did as requested, she continued her examination. She reached between the bars and ran her hands up his legs and across his ass. "Turn again." He turned back towards hear and she went for his legs and feet again. She jumped up and made several notations on scars and other marks. She went back down on her knees and grabbed his balls and continued her dry examination. 

He shuddered at her touch, and she went along his dick, muttering to herself. Once she was satisfied, she let go of him and added to her board. 

"You are cruel." He muttered.

"You insult me without even finding out where it ends?" She moved her head only slightly and whispered.

He swallowed the lump in his throat. "Forgive me, I thought you were finished."

"This is why it is inadvisable to try and understand my mind." 

"Of course, my goddess."

She returned to her sketches, adding in detail as she worked. He was amazed at her accuracy and detail. She reached over and took his dick in her hand and began to feel the texture of it. He groaned while she added more to her sketch. Once she was satisfied, she closed up the board. He was panting over her. 

She looked up and grinned, running her fingers up and down his dick. "Visually, you please me. Perhaps I should keep you." She ran her hand up and down, gripping and flexing. "Add you to my already growing harem." She started jacking him. Her other hand went up to his cheek. He pressed against it. "However, as attractive as you may be... as well toned as you are..." Her fingers threaded through his hair. "You still haven't proven your use to me." 

"What do I need to do?" He whispered. She let go of him and he groaned. She tried to pull her hand back, but he grabbed her hand and rubbed it once again against his cheek. "Name it."

"Men. I require them. I surround myself with them. Women are fine too, so long as they prove their worth. My men are strong; every one of them earns their place." She reached her hand back down and stroked the length of him. "I want them strong, I want them loyal. I want my own private army. Oh, I certainly have the beginning workings, but I think you can bring me more." She growled. "I'm going to tell you a little secret... no one else knows." She pressed herself to the bars, stroked him up and down. "I feed on their affection." 

His eyes went wide and he stared at her. 

"Want to know how I'm so powerful? How I'm so feared? Every time a man gets hard for me, I feed. I never have to touch him. I absorb their lust for me. I find you delicious." She licked a fang. "Bring them to me, and we shall feed on each other." She whispered. 

She clicked the lock open, untangled herself from him. When she opened the door, she stepped forward. Grabbing him by the fang she pulled his head down and licked his lips. "Feed me." She dropped down and wrapped her mouth around him. He clutched the bars and groaned. When she felt him about to release, she stood up and ran her hand down the length of him, nimbly avoiding his mess. 

"Bring me an army." She purred. "Make them show me their loyalty, and I will feast." 

She stepped away from him and he scrambled to pull up his pants. "But what of my things?" 

"I've had them delivered." She picked up her board and led him outside. 

The two guards saluted. "Ma'am?" Asked one. 

Grogek listened from behind the wall.

"This prisoner is no longer of any interest to me."

"But, Ma'am..."

"Are you questioning me?" 

He jerked up straight. "No ma'am!" 

Charnak pulled on his gear and picked up his axe. He licked his lips and hesitated.

She lifted an eyebrow. "Well? Don't you have somewhere to be?" She snorted. "And take that wolf you brought. He eats too much." 

Charnak nodded and mounted his wolf, disappearing over the horizon.

"Are you sure that was wise?" Grogek frowned. 

Elunara shrugged. "We'll see, won't we?" She reached over and patted the guard on the shoulder. "Gee, you'd think you were actually afraid of me." She grinned.

He blushed. "I am."

"Good man." Grogek laughed. 

High up on the hill, Charnak took out the drawings she had given him. He frowned at the folded piece of paper stuck in his pocket. He opened it up and smiled. His goddess, bathed in the light of her power, dagger in hand. He smiled to himself as he turned the wolf for Nagrand.



For the Whored Ch. 078



Elunara flipped through the papers when she heard the knock. Opening the door, she frowned. "You better have a lovely explanation for why you have your hands on my child."

The woman let go of Darguni's arm. "He punched Bradly!"

Elunara raised an eyebrow and crossed her arms. "Why?"

"Nothin." 

"Darguni, you will answer me or you WILL find out why half this town is afraid of me."

"He called you a whore."

The woman turned scarlet. "Is this true?" 

"Yeah." Bradly mumbled. 

Elunara pointed. "You! Do you know what that word means?"

"I don't think-" 

Elunara pointed at her. "You be quiet. You." She pointed to the kid. "Do you know what that word means?"

"No." He admitted.

"YOU, don't use words you don't know the meaning of." She pointed at Darguni. "YOU, don't get upset over things that aren't actual insults. Next time, come to me and ask if it's an actual insult." 

"Yes, Momma." 

"For that, you can't play outside. You will be helping me in the library." She slammed the door in the face of the lady. 

"Aw, Momma."

"Listen, you need to understand something really important. The reason I don't get upset over insults, is that I spent my entire life being called the worst possible names that people could come up with. In the end, I made something of myself, and those same people now respect me, love me. I never stopped being who I am, just because everyone else thought I should." She sat her papers down. "You see all these books? I wrote every single one of them. Every minute of every day, I have put into these books." 

"All of them? There's so many."

"While my books aren't exactly... kid friendly, you should understand that each and every one of them contains the meanness that people can have." She pulled down a book and flipped it open. "My own mother banished me, because I was who I was, and not once apologized for it." She sat the book down. "Recently, she not only accepted what I had done, but she now accepts me, welcomed me home." She picked up another book and opened it, laying it beside each other. "This... is me." She put her first on the first book. "This is the worst moment of my life. This is the moment when my own mother called me an irredeemable whore, and a disgrace to Darnassus." She put her hand in the second book. "And this is the moment where it all came together. Where she apologized to me, for never understanding me. Do you know how many years were in between?"

"A lot?"

"Thirty years. Thirty years of my life, and not ONE person could make me feel as bad as I did on that day." She kissed his cheek. "Don't let the words of the uneducated; of the "normal" ever bring you down. Nothing they could say could ever hurt me. Don't defend me, son. That would be the insult. Don't insult yourself or me by giving in to their silly, childish nonsense." 

Elunara was on the way home from a portrait delivery when she heard the childish, "My dad can beat up your dad!" She rolled her eyes and peered around the corner. 

"My MOM could beat up YOUR dad!" Darguni declared. 

"Pfft, my dad could beat up your mom AND your dad." The infamous Bradly declared.

"You know, I have walked in on really dumb conversations before, but this one deserves an award." Elunara snorted as she leaned against the building

All five kids froze in place, obviously caught. 

"Are you not aware that his dad is General Grogek? Trainer of all men who come through the portal?" She shook her head. "As for the rest of that statement, I haven't met a man yet I haven't bested in combat. Just because I haven't done a demonstration, doesn't mean I've gone soft." 

Darguni crossed his arms proudly. 

"Who is your dad, kid?"

"Captain Harvard." He wiped his nose. 

She shook her head. "Must be from the newest load. I haven't had him in my studio." 

"Mother says he better keep it that way." 

"Ah." She tapped a finger to her chin. "Come on, kiddies, I have the urge to beat the crap out of something." She led the way to the training yard. "For the record, the best view is on that hill." Once they scurried up the hill, she made her way to the weapon rack. 

She picked up her staff and all training stopped. The men helping to train newer recruits signaled a halt. Like the parting of a sea, they all scattered to the edges of the training yard. Grogek turned around with a grin. 

"You know, it HAS been awhile." He called. 

"Don't mind me, Sugarbear, I just like proving a point." 

He shook his head. "I'll ask you later what that means." He flexed his hand and grabbed his axe out of the air.

"That's my Momma and my Papa." Darguni grinned. 

"Did you know... that there are people in this town who STILL think calling me a whore is an insult?"

"Must be new here." He shrugged. 

Jordan jogged up to the ring. "Hey! You didn't invite me?"

Elunara grinned. "Oh, are we going for a twofer?"

Jordan unsheathed his sword. "I know how you like it from both sides."

She made a gleeful shriek. "And it's not even my birthday!"

Darguni leaned over to the nearest kid. "That's Uncle Jordan."

She held her stave to the side. "Bring it, lovers." She launched herself at Grogek, neatly ducking out of the way of his blow. She dodged backwards from his next shot, but had to bounce up in order to avoid Jordan's lunge. She flipped over Grogek's shoulder and cracked him in the side, before bounding back and stepping on Jordan's shoulder. She leapt off of him and barely avoided getting smacked by Grogek. 

She brought the staff down on to Jordan, but he dodged out of the way before she could connect. She bounced backwards and did a back flip, going over Grogek's shoulder. She ran, jumped and came down in between them. She shot out and hit Jordan in the thigh. Her foot came around Grogek's and she tripped him up, but his hand shot out and grabbed her leg and she went crashing down with him. 

She slithered out of the way of Jordan's blow and caught a cut to her hip from Grogek. She spun and Thrust out her staff, cracking Grogek in the chin, but taking a slice from Jordan for her trouble. She swore and dodged both of their next attacks. They began attacking in sync with each other, causing her to go on the defensive. Seeing her chance, she jumped up and landed on the wide side of Grogek's axe, running up it as she dodged Jordan. Jamming her staff down into the pressure point of Grogek's shoulder, she caused him to drop the axe. 

As Grogek swore, Jordan continued his attack, and she dodged him effortlessly for a time. Without warning, his foot caught the back of her ankle and she tumbled backwards. He caught her and pulled her in for a kiss. The crowd cheered and she gave him a quick smack in the head. 

"Hey!" He grabbed his head. 

She giggled. "You left yourself wide open for that one!" 

He dropped his sword and grabbed her, dipping her over and kissing her silly. 

With a laugh, she pushed him away. 

"I wish I'd thought of that." Grogek grumbled. 

She laughed and checked his shoulder. "Hold on." She jammed her thumb down into his shoulder. "There we go."

He flexed his hand. "I hate when you do that."

"But it's the most effective way to disarm you. Hey, I could go for the armpit, but then you'd be out longer." She pressed her lips to his. 

He grinned and ran a hand over her hip. She hissed in pain. He frowned. "I cut you deeper than I intended."

"Nothing Ina can't fix." 

Darguni leapt on to her sore hip. She winced in pain. "That was AWESOME!" He beamed at Grogek. "You too, papa." He looked up and grinned. "And you Uncle Jordan. But Momma was best." 

She winced. "Can you hug the other leg?" 

Darguni patted her hip. "You're bleeding."

"Occupational hazard." She grinned. "In fact, they both managed to get off a few good shots." She frowned at her torn shirt. "I'll ask Tulani to fix it." 

"I TOLD you my Momma could beat up your dad." Darguni stuck his tongue out at the kids that ran over. 

"How did you DO that?" Asked one girl. 

"That doesn't prove anything." Bradly crossed his arms. 

Gerald wandered over. "You know Elunara, you are good for business." He dropped some coins in her hand. "Your cut." 

Grogek narrowed his eyes. "You bet against us?"

"No, I told Gerald he could start betting again if I got a share of the winnings." She tucked it into her pocket. 

"She keeps me honest." He sighed. 

"Why did you kiss both of them?" 

Everyone looked down at Bradly. 

Gerald threw his hands up. "I am SO out of that discussion." He wandered away.

"Because I love both of them." She laughed. "Come, let's move off the ring so the men can return to training."

She sat down on the platform. Darguni sat down beside her and Grogek and Jordan sat down behind her. 

"How long will this numbness last?" Grogek muttered.

"Sorry, Sugarbear, about an hour-ish." 

Jordan laughed. "So you'll be fine by tonight at least."

"I'd never do permanent damage to either of you." She reached back and rubbed their legs. 

"Hey, Baby, you're not going to be happy about this one..." 

She turned around and frowned. "What?"

"Your hip healed itself..."

She looked down and sighed. "Oh, for the love of..."

"Why is that a bad thing?" The girl from before asked.

Elunara sighed and ran her fingers through her hair. "It's complicated, but I recently have developed strange powers. I never know when a new one is going to show up."

"So you're really powerful?"

Jordan and Grogek broke into laughter. "She's the meanest, toughest thing in this whole town." Jordan wiped his eye. "She proves it just about every time she turns around." 

"My mother says that women shouldn't be fighters." Bradly crossed his arms. 

"Honey, your mother's limited view of the world hurts my heart." Elunara sighed. 

"A woman should do what best pleases her." Grogek nodded. "Even if it means I've lost feeling in my fingers for the next hour." He grumbled. 

Elunara turned around and began to massage his hand. "This should help." 

Jordan shook his head and began to examine the cuts on Elunara's body. He wiped one clean. "They're all healed."

Elunara groaned. "Well, I guess it's a good thing my body can heal minor wounds." She shrugged. "It'll come in handy." 

"Yeah, especially when you decide to duel again." Jordan rubbed her hip and smiled. 

Elunara moved Grogek's hand on her shoulder as she worked along his arm. "You know me, I can't stop myself."

"If there is a person alive who can stop you from doing anything, I'll be sure to shake their hand." Jordan laughed and kissed her. "I have to get back to work." He stood up and climbed off the platform. "Love you."

"Love you too, Sugar." She leaned over and kissed him again. 

He rubbed his hand on Darguni's head. "Stay out of trouble, kiddo."

"Ok, Uncle Jordan." 

"You still didn't answer why you kiss both of them." Bradly pouted.

"I told you. I love them both. Grogek is my husband, Tulani is my wife, and Jordan is my lover. Jordan is special to me, and that's why he lives with us." She worked her way up into Grogek's shoulder. "To explain it any more detailed and I think your parents would be angry with me." Elunara shrugged. "We are a strange, but happy family. What works for us, would never work for any others. If Grogek wasn't who he is, or I was not who I was, none of it would work at all. Instead, we form a family unlike anything anyone has seen before. That makes us strange and weird, but it does not make us bad." Elunara went back to Grogek's hand and smiled. 

He lifted his hand and put it on her cheek. "I love this woman and would do anything to make her happy. But I also love Tulani, for she is sweet and kind and makes Elunara happy. Jordan is my friend, and we share a love for the same woman, but do our best to not step over each other. Elunara directs us all. We live by her word." 

She laughed. "You make me sound like a dictator." 

He tugged her into his lap. "It makes you my wife." He pressed his mouth to hers. 

Darguni climbed in the pile. "It makes you my Momma and Papa." Darguni declared proudly. "And Momma Tuly and Uncle Jordan." He grinned. 

Grogek patted Darguni's head. "Yes it does." He grinned. 

"You guys are so adorable I could barf." Zelinnia sighed as she leaned against the platform.

"In two more months, you're going to be just as barf worthy." Elunara pointed.

"Gods, I hope so." She sighed and rubbed her belly. "So why are you playing babysitter?"

"I'm not. I had an itching for duel, and then Jordan got involved and things went... well, you know it is with me. Why are you out here?"

"Oh, Johnathan wanted me to find you. He says that Orc you let go? He's taken over a couple of settlements, and is building an army. What do you make of it?"

"He better be building ME that army, or I'll lop his nuts off and stuff em down his throat. He comes at me again and I won't be so merciful."

Several kids gasped.

Zelinnia laughed. "Classic Elunara." She sighed. 

"So how's Renwa handling impending fatherhood?"

"He's so desperate for distraction; he's broken into my paperwork."

"Ooo. And he still lives, how?"

"By the skin of his teeth." Zelinnia laughed. "Where's Tulani been holing up?"

"In her studio. She has been designing some GLORIOUS dresses. She's been shipping them back to old world, and making a killing. While Eloise supplies US with stuff, Tulani... wow. You should see the things she comes up with. I swear she's competing with me for daily paper usage. Still helps Eloise out though."

"Speaking of clothes, why are yours torn?"

"Dueling."

"But I don't see any cuts."

"They healed themselves."

"Seriously? Lucky bitch. I swear, you get all the good stuff." She snorted.

"Are you a Blood Elf?" Bradly frowned. 

"Yeah? What of it?"

"Kid, you're talking to Admiral Renwa's wife. I wouldn't piss her off."

"Is anybody NORMAL in this town?" Bradly snorted.

Elunara sighed. "They teach bigotry so young these days." 

"Be as rude as you want little man," Zelinnia snorted. "It's the weird ones that own this town." 

"Meow, Zelinnia. You're in a mood."

"I'm going with pregnancy hormones. Where is that cat of yours anyway?"

"Yoona's taken a liking to Tulani." Elunara rubbed Darguni's head. "Especially since dinky boy here won't listen to me and take over her care. I keep telling him she'll be a glorious mount, but he's all wah, wah I don't want responsibility, I want friends." She snorted.

"Momma!"

"Sabrecats are loyal and amazing to have, you should feel lucky to have one to grow with." She sighed. "Besides, the choice of friends in this town are pretty lax." She eyed Bradly. "Have to say, I approve of this chicky here." Elunara gestured with her thumb. 

"Lucinda, Ma'am."

"Yeah, she's a good one. Just pours out the affection." 

Zelinnia laughed and rubbed her belly. "High praise indeed." 

Elunara pointed to a boy. "You?"

"Cody." 

"Kinda like you too."

She pointed to the other girl. "Lydia."

"Good enough." She pointed to Bradly. "You, you're a little shit. That's OK though, I don't blame you for how you were raised." She shrugged. 

Zelinnia laughed. "Alright, I delivered my message; I'm going to go bug Tulani for something pretty."

"She'd be glad to fit you." 

"Among other things." Sighed Zelinnia as she waddled away.

Grogek sighed. "Five, four..." He laughed as Zelinnia winced and picked up her pace. "She never fails to deliver."

Elunara laughed. "It's bad when YOU can count her off."

Flexing his hand Grogek stood up. "I'm going to get back to training the newest lot. They're a new kind of terrible." He sighed. "It's always the ones that earned rank before coming out that seem to have the biggest rock in their heads." 

"You can blame Varian for that one." She tapped her chin. "You know, scratch that, things have gotten better since Varian came back. He's doing the best he can. It's the people who earned rank before he came back that are the biggest pains in the ass. They get stuck in their ways, as bassackwards as they are. I'm sure Varian will fix it."

"You seem to have confidence in him." 

Elunara grinned. "You forget, he and I have done our time beneath the sheets. There's a man who packs some serious heat." She chuckled. "I wonder what he'd think if he knew the truth."

"Knowing you, he'd probably feed you." Grogek rolled his eyes.

She licked her lips. "Now there would be a meal." She laughed. 

"You know the King of Stormwind?" Lucinda asked in awe.

"He and I go way back."

"Liar." Spat Bradly.

"It's not my job to make you believe a damned thing." Elunara shrugged. "Alright, you guys play nice, I have appointments." She rubbed her hand in Darguni's hair. "Mind the signs."

"Yes, Momma."

She got up and jumped off the platform, whistling as she went. 

"What does "mind the signs" mean?" Lydia frowned. 

"When Momma's signs are on the door, we're forbidden from coming in." 

"We?" 

"Papa and Uncle Jordan won't enter either. No one is supposed to."

"Why?"

"Because when people get naked, they don't want people they didn't invite to see them." He shrugged. 

"She's amazing." Lucinda whispered in awe.

"Ugh, get over it." Bradly snarled. "Nobody likes a whore."

Darguni rolled his eyes. "Did you ever learn what that word means?"

"Did YOU?"

"Yes. It was Momma's codename when she was a mission specialist in Stormwind. She said she chose it because it was hers to choose." 

Lucinda ginned. "Guess that means you can't use that one anymore." 

Bradly shoved Lucinda. "Shut up, you don't know what you're talking about!"

Darguni crossed his arms. "Don't you dare shove her."

Bradly shoved Lucinda again. 

Darguni punched him in the face. 

Next thing anyone knew, Grogek had both boys in each hand. "WHAT is going on?"

Darguni pointed. "Bradly wouldn't stop shoving Lucinda. Momma says I can fight if I'm defending someone else."

"Can't say I disagree with her."

"What is going on here?" Captain Harvard put his hands on his hips. "Why are you manhandling my son?"

"Why is your son shoving little girls?" Grogek deposited Bradly in front of his father. He put Darguni down in front of him.

"Why WERE you shoving a little girl?"

Bradly stared at his feet and refused to speak.

"Because Lucinda said she liked Momma, and he called her a whore, and I asked him if I knew what it meant and I told him about Momma's codename and Lucinda thought it was funny, so he shoved her." Darguni managed to say it all in one breath. 

"Ah." Was all Grogek said.

"First of all, you're not to use language like that." Harvard sighed. "Second, you don't start fights with people because they disagree with you."

"I hate you." Bradly stomped his foot. 

"Now that was just uncalled for." 

"This is all your fault!"

Harvard stared in bewilderment. "What is all my fault?"

Darguni frowned up at Grogek. Grogek just shook his head. 

"I want to go back to Stormwind." He sniffled. "I never wanted to come here, away from all my friends. You stuck me in the middle of nowhere with this half breed, a pair of girls, and a wuss. I want my old friends back." 

Grogek put a hand on Darguni's shoulder. 

"What's wrong with being a half breed?" Darguni cocked his head to the side. "Am I supposed to be ashamed because my parents loved each other? That I was born?" He shook his head and looked up at Grogek. "Papa, why is he so angry at nothing?" Darguni gestured. "He says mean things about people who didn't say mean things to him." 

"Sometimes, people are just like that." Grogek shrugged. "You speak beyond your years. Perhaps we can convince your mother to let you learn a weapon."

"Can I have an axe AND a staff?" Darguni had returned to his happy childish self.

"Let's start small, OK?" Grogek grinned. 




For the Whored Ch. 078



Lucinda, Cody and Lydia ran up beside Grogek and Darguni. 

"Can I learn one too?" Lucinda asked. "I want the staff!" 

"I want a sword!" Cody clapped. 

"Alright, alright. We have to speak to your parents first." Grogek laughed. 

Harvard sighed. "Listen, why don't' you go back home, and we'll talk tonight."

"No!" Bradly took off running. 

"Shit!" Harvard yelled, before he started chasing after the child. Harvard chased along trying to catch Bradly before he made it out of the safe perimeter. "No. NO! BRADLY COME BACK! He screamed as he lost sight of the boy. He ran in circles for some time before turning and running back to the training yard. "GENERAL GROGEK!" He screamed as tears ran down his face. 

Grogek met him halfway. "What's the matter?"

"My boy! My boy, he ran past the perimeter! I don't know what to do! Please. I know he was cruel, but he didn't mean it." Tears streamed down the man's face. 

"Stop. Calm down. Do you have a direction?"

"Yes!"

"Wait here, I have to get Elunara." He turned and ran. At the door he pounded on it. 

Elunara yanked open the door. "We'd only just started."

"That kid, Bradly, he took off running. His father lost track of him at the edge of the safe perimeter." 

"Dumbass kid." Elunara sighed. She looked back. "I'm sorry, we'll have to reschedule." 

"Oh no." The woman put her hands to her face. "Do we need a search party?"

Grogek shook his head. "We need Elunara. She's the best tracker we have."

"Take me." 

They met the father on the north end of the perimeter. He put his hands on her arms. "Please, help me."

Elunara narrowed her eyes. "I've got his trail." She pushed past the man and went through the barrier.

"But, she's unarmed." Harvard frowned. 

"I assume Elunara is unarmed is folly." Grogek frowned. 

She followed his trail like a blood hound. At fist the trail was pretty straight forward, but it soon became obvious where he ran into trouble and which directions he'd darted off to. He had gotten turned around several times, and almost dipped into demon territory. She continued pursuit and swore in several colorful languages when she realized he'd made his way up into Gorgrond. 

Dark came quickly and she was plunged into a starry night. Still she tracked his strange and erratic pathway. On the one hand she gave him props for making his way so far so fast, in hopefully one piece. The occasional traces of blood were no more unusual in this sort of situation. It was large quantities you had to worry about. With a groan she snuck into Laughing Skull territory. She stopped a moment and pulled out a sheet of paper. She scribbled hastily and then took the sheet of paper and wadded it up, tossing it over her shoulder. 

"Where ARE they?" Harvard whimpered. "Shouldn't we send more people out?" He rubbed his arms. 

Grogek frowned from his seat on the ground. "Elunara is the best." A piece of paper floated down and he snatched it reading. "She's tracked him to Gorgrond... Laughing Skulls." Grogek sighed. "How could such a small child get so far, so fast?" 

"How..."

Grogek held up the sheet of paper. "This is Elunara's communication." 

"How goes it?" Renwa stepped forward. 

Grogek passed him the paper. 

"Damn!" 

"Admiral! He refuses to send out more men! We should—"

"Wait on Elunara. No one can do what Elunara does. We wait. If she calls for backup, then we worry." 

"You two have an awful lot of faith in her." He pulled at his hair. 

"We know her." Renwa spread his hands. 

A woman came running out of the town. "No one told me until now! Why?" She stomped her foot. 

"With a small child, one would assume he couldn't get that far." Grogek sighed. "Elunara has tracked him farther than I thought possible for him to go." 

"Elunara? That whore?"

Grogek raised an eyebrow. 

Harvard turned around and glared. "I see where he GETS it now..."

"Fighting now won't do you any good." Grogek shook his head. 

Elunara felt that she was close. Painfully close, but she couldn't find the hole he had hidden himself in. It was the whimpering that alerted her to his presence. She bellied down and crawled in a small alcove. He whimpered back. She scribbled runes on her paper and lit them. 

"It's just me, kid." 

He lunged at her, wrapping his arms around her neck. She felt the tell tale stickiness of drying blood. 

"Listen, let go for now. I need to send your parents a message." 

He nodded and released her. She scribbled on her paper. Taking the message, she wadded it up and tossed it over her shoulder. It burned brightly and she saw he was covered in scratches and scrapes. The paper died out. 

"I'm not sure if this will work, but I'm going to try." She laid her hands on his leg and closed her eyes. She focused on the prayer, a transference of good feeling. He seemed to relax under her hands. "Alright, come on out." She backed out slowly and pulled him with her. He shivered against her and she wondered if he was shocky. 

He gasped and clung to her. She sighed. "Dammit to fuck." She hissed. 

Two Laughing Skull orcs were looking at her with their heads cocked. She dodged the first spear and leapt over the second one. One arm was wrapped around the kid, but he was clinging to her in panic. She freed her hand and dodged and jumped until she was able to bury the dagger in the back of one's neck. Dropping down to the ground to dodge another spear, she was able to jam the dagger up under the jaw of the remaining laughing skull. She dismissed her knife and took off running. Through some miracle she was able to escape the encampment without attracting any others. 

She hid in a small alcove and sat him down. Pulling out a length of rope, she was able to make a harness. He still wasn't talking and she was growing more concerned. "Come on kid, the only way I'm getting us out of this, is if I tie you to me. OK?"

He nodded. 

She roped him to her back, and once he was in a comfortable position, secured him. "If you were my kid, I'd have already beaten the snot out of you for this." She sighed and started running sprints. Something grabbed her ankle and she hit the ground with a nasty crack. She turned and started slashing vines with her dagger. She cussed and swore as she started dispatching the vine creatures trying to eat her. She jumped on the back on a genesaur and stabbed it in the eye before jumping down and running for dear life. The enraged creature charged after her, flailing and roaring. She continued her mad dash until she felt like passing out. 

The gratitude and amazement of the young charge on her back went a long way towards replenishing her supply. By time she made it to the edge of Talador, she was begging for a reprieve. With a groan she smacked her forehead. Elune might like her, but whoever controlled this lousy world thought it was funny to dump Iron Horde in her path. She lay on the ground, face buried in the dirt. The boy was perfectly quiet, a fact that continued to haunt her. 

She jumped up and made a break for it, killing whatever hapless Iron Horde got in her way. She bailed into the bushes on the other side. With half a laugh, she patted a giant pissed off tiger on the head. "Goooood kitty." She dug in her pocket and with a prayer, opened her hand. It took the morsel from her and swallowed it in one bite. It licked her hand. "I know we smell like food..." She began patting her pants hoping to have something else. The boy held forth some sort of food item and she took it from him and fed the tiger. It rubbed up against them with a merowor. 

Slowly, she headed towards town, careful to not run while the tiger eyed them. Should she run, it was as good as putting an "eat me" sign on her butt. Strangely, the beast started trotting along beside her like a puppy. She put her hands on its neck and pulled herself up. Seemingly game to the idea, the tiger began to run along. When Elunara tugged on its neck, it went the direction she led it. She drove it towards the barrier. It hesitated in confusion. "Go on, it's ok." Cautiously, the tiger pushed through the barrier. 

Dropping off of the tiger, she stood up. In the campfire light, it was a beauty with black hide sporting red stripes. 

Grogek and party swarmed her. 

"I need Ina. The boy needs medical attention." Elunara sighed.

"I'm here. Let me have him."

Elunara cut the harness, and let him drop into his father's arms. She ran a hand over the tiger's head. "Why is the boy not speaking?"

"He ate some bad fruit in Gorgrond." Ina shook her head. "We need to get him to my building. If we don't get the antidote in him soon, he'll suffocate on his own tongue."

Harvard hugged her. "Thank you so much." He turned and followed Ina with the boy.

"Ugh, I need a bath." 

"It appears you've made a friend." Grogek laughed. 

"Yeah." She looked back. "He's a big one. I'm going to need some meat for him." She sighed. "Spare me from dumb children."

"You realize our own child is going to make dumb mistakes eventually."

"And I'll just have to beat the not out of him." She scoffed. 

Grogek laughed. "Yeah, like you would."

"Depends on how stupid."



For the Whored Ch. 079



"So there I was! Hiding for my life, and my face swelling up like a balloon! I didn't know what to do, but then she slides under the rock I was hiding under and she does this weird thing with paper and made it burst into flames without any tinder. And she puts her hands on me and my body doesn't hurt so much anymore. She pulls me out, and then there's these two Orc guards there. They try to attack, but she held on to me as she fought them one handed! And she JAMS her knife into one guy's neck and turns around jams the knife in the other's JAW!" He pointed on his own face. 

"Then she takes off running and we escape before they know what's going on! So then she ties me to her back and starts to run again, but there's these giant killer plants! And she starts fighting them and cutting them to pieces and there's this HUGE centaur guy and she jumps up on him and jams her knife in his eye and she leaps off of him and runs and runs! Then we finally escape the plant place and there's this camp of evil orcs and stuff, and she just RUNS through the camp, left and right and right and left and she just MOWS down ten of them! And she takes this FLYING leap into the bushes, and there's this GIANT TIGER and she just reaches up and pats it on the head and says "good kitty" and she just tames it on the spot! It was the coolest thing! And then she grabs it by the neck and pulls herself up and she rides it to safety!"

Harvard laughed as he pat Bradly on the head. "I seriously doubt it was like that."

"He's right." Elunara leaned against the door. The other kids gasped. "First of all, it was six orcs, not ten. Second, I didn't ride the tiger immediately, just after I realized it wasn't going away." She walked in, "How is he doing? Of course, given the look of him, I'd say he's doing well."

"It's thanks to you he's even alive." Harvard sighed. 

"I'm sorry I called you bad names." Bradly added meekly.

"Kid, the day you can give me a clever insult, is the day you see me impressed."

"I told you my Momma was amazing."

"Rub it in AFTER he's out of the healer building." Elunara scoffed. 

"Can I speak to you outside?" Harvard frowned. 

Elunara shrugged and walked outside. Harvard joined her. 

"I AM sorry for how he acted."

"Please don't make me repeat myself."

Harvard rubbed his neck. "Listen, apparently my wife and kid took this whole move to Draenor thing a bit hard. I didn't realize HOW hard until my wife flipped out on me last night. She heard some bizarre rumors and..."

"I'm going to stop you right there. They're probably all true, except... no, I do NOT actively try to steal husbands, I got enough of them as is. No, I do NOT seduce anything that moves, I have enough clients, I don't need to hunt them down. No, Jordan is NOT gay for Grogek, and no Zelinnia is NOT part of my little circle. Yes, I did Renwa years ago, but no I am not currently doing him now. He's quite obsessed with his wife." Elunara tapped a finger to her chin. "Oh, and I did almost rip Gerald's balls off, he shouldn't have cheated his bets. No, he doesn't cheat his bets any more, he's too damned afraid of me." She considered. "That should cover the basics, though if any others pop up, let me know, I'll clarify them."

"I...uh, wow." He scratched his head. "Moving on... Since she was already so upset about moving here, I guess she decided to take it out on him and you, since you were nowhere near her to defend yourself. She's been saying them in front of Bradly, and since he was so upset, he just mirrored her, I guess. Anyway, I think we're headed to a divorce. I refuse to leave, and she refuses to stay. This puts Bradly in the middle." He sighed.

"You're worried she'll take him with her." 

"Terrified. But what can I do? I'm at the training yard all day, and he'd be by himself."

"Let me explain how this town works. We look after each other. Every time a new crowd comes through, we filter out the loyals and ship out the assholes. Negative people don't stay here very long, we won't let them. If your soon to be ex-wife demands a port home, she'll eventually get it. We avoid portals home because they're... messy to deal with. However, if she does, Renwa will ask your boy where he wants to go. Back to Stormwind, or stay here? In the end, he will get to make the decision. We'll just do our best to encourage him to stay here."

"Well, I think he loves you now."

She shrugged. "I have to warn you, though." She peered in the building to make sure Darguni was still inside. "Those portals are NASTY. I mean seriously messed up. I went back to Darnassus for a week. I had to, no way around it. When I left, I carried a child that was not quite two, through the portal. The next morning, I had a four year old. We were there for a week and when we returned, two moths had gone by. The next morning, I had a six year old on my hands." She pointed. "That child is two freaking years old."

"Gods..." He whispered.

"He could come back through that portal a man, and you'd have no idea. No, we'll do our best to keep him out of that portal." 

"So, what are you going to do about your new friend?" Jordan took a bite out of an apple. 

"Well, he's actually fairly well behaved. He gets along with Yoona just fine. I figure maybe I could train him up as a mount. He did well the other night." She scraped a pile of meat into a dish and sat it on the floor. The big cat began to devour the meal. "I'm trying to figure out a good name for him."

"Blood?"

"Hah! No." She shook her head. "I don't want to go with obvious." 

There was a knock on the door. Elunara stared down at Bradly. 

"Can I have my picture done?" He held out a hand with some coins. "I can pay."

She blinked at him a moment. "Sure kid, come have a seat."

Pointing to the chair, she went in her library and prepped her board. When she came out, the tiger was rubbing up against Bradly and purring. 

"Are you keeping him?"

"Yeah, I just gotta think of a REALLY good name for him."

Bradly giggled as the cat licked his hand. "How about savage?"

"I kind of like that one." Elunara sat down on the couch and popped her board open. 

"I wanted to thank you for saving me." He swung his feet. "You were SO AWESOME!"

Jordan laughed. "I don't have to worry about you going hungry today." 

"Oh, leave off." Elunara laughed.

"What does that mean?"

"It's an old joke; I'll explain it when you're older."

"I'm getting tired of hearing that." He sighed. 

"Hey, don't rush it kid."

"People think I'm just a little kid, and they won't explain things to me."

"Fine, how about this... I absorb energy from positive feelings as food."

He blinked at her. "I... don't get it." 

"Which is why I said I'd explain it later." She tapped her pencil on the table. "You understand love, right?"

"I guess." 

"Well, when you love someone, or REALLY like them, you give off energy towards them. Most people can't even tell, but some people can sense it. I actually feed off of that energy. I can never take more than is already given."

"I'm still confused, but that sounds really cool."

"That." She pointed. "Right there. That's like food to me. But before you ask, no I don't do things to get fed. I get enough "food" from the people that love me that I don't need to hunt any down."

"I bet you don't have to eat vegetables." He made a face.

"Not a single bite."

"My parents don't share energy." He frowned. "At least, not since we got here." He sighed. "And especially not after yesterday. Mom will be mad I came over. She doesn't give me energy either, says I take too much energy..." He sighed again and fiddled his feet as he rubbed his arm. "She doesn't want me to talk to... you. She said that Papa should have gone after me, not you. She was also mad that no one told her I'd run off." 

"Well, she has a reason for being mad, but your dad could not have handled the wilds. Besides, I'm a Night Elf, I blend into the shadows, I can run and hunt in ways he cannot. I'm also the best tracker in this town. General Grogek could have found you, but not as quick as I could. That's just a combination of my racial abilities. When I strapped you to my back, you became a beacon for anything that wouldn't have seen me on my own."

"I'm sorry." He fidgeted. 

"Eh, I'm just impressed you made it so far, so fast, without dying." She pointed. "You've got some hidden talents yourself." 

"I do?" He brightened. "But, I just ran." He bit his lip. "I ran and ran and when I got tired, I kept finding myself being chased by demons and orcs and things. I was so tired and hungry that I grabbed what looked like food... and then my tongue got swollen." 

"Well, now you know why we train everyone so hard. This place is deadly." She shrugged and continued working. "Listen kid, I'm going to be honest with you, I've never really been around kids. When I was growing up, my mother wanted me to be a priestess like her. I was put into the study from birth. But, unlike her, I have no ability for it. They tried and tried, but I could never be like her, because it wasn't in me. I am me, I am not my mother. You are you, you are not your parents. Don't try to be like one or the other, always be you."

"What about your dad?"

"To be honest, I don't even know who my dad is." She shook her head. "In the end, I never spent any time around kids my age, and by time my mother had given up on me, I was old enough to do what I wanted. But then..." She shook her head again. "Listen, I'm going to be straight with you, because that's all I know. I got mad at someone, and I did something really hateful to him. Don't ask me what, because I don't care HOW old you are, I'm not telling you. But, he died because of me. My mother was so angry with me, that she banished me from Darnassus."

"How could she banish you from a whole city?"

"My mother is Tyrande Whisperwind." 

Bradly gasped and put his hands over his mouth. 

"Yeah. Anyway, for the past thirty years I have been banished, because what I did was THAT bad. I learned to live on my own and live with myself. I am who I am, because I never tried to be who I am not. And now? My mother has accepted me into her arms, as the person I am." She shrugged. "I was once told that mothers get the maddest at their children. Or something like that." She shrugged. "Listen, I'm going to tell you a HUGE secret, and no matter HOW mad you get, you can NOT tell anyone what I've told you. Understand me?"

He nodded and scooted forward. 

"Your mother wants to go back to Stormwind, and your dad wants to stay here. They're reaching a point in which both are going to get what they want, and you will be stuck in the middle. It's mean and it's not fair, but it is what it is. Your mother hates this place. Your dad wants to join the Alliance Army and help fight back the Iron Horde. When they come to that point, Admiral Renwa is going to look at you and ask you what you want. I'm not going to try to make your decision for you.

You can go back to Stormwind, back to your old life, old friends, things you knew. Or, you can stay here and figure out a new life, make new friends. You know what it's like in Stormwind. But here, everything is tougher, meaner, scarier. You have to work extra hard just to survive. I'm sure you've seen the guards of Stormwind, how do they compare to the guards here?"

"Your guards are so much bigger." He had a shade of awe in his voice.

"That's how this world works. Get tough or get eaten." 

Savage wandered over and lay down at Elunara's feet. She gave him a scratch behind the ears. 

"I'm just telling you this, so you have time to think before it happens. No matter what either of your parents says to you, it comes down to what YOU want. Go home? To what you know? Or stay here? In this strange rough world? You go home with you mother, or stay with your dad, who admittedly, won't have that much time to take care of you, because he'll be so busy training. Perhaps you start training with us, I mean, a kid's gotta know how this world works, or he could get himself into some major trouble." She shrugged. 

He sat there, his mind racing, as he bit his lip. 

She turned her board around. "Satisfactory?" 

With a gasp, he slid out of the chair and ran over, his hand on the paper. "That's ME?"

"Well, I need to finish up the details, refine the lines a little, but yes. I'll have your commission to you in a day or so. Go terrorize the neighborhood." She closed up her board and stood up. 

"Yes Ma'am!" He turned and ran out. 

"You don't know how to handle kids, my ass." Jordan snorted. "All a boy wants is to be talked straight to and treated like a man." He pointed at the door. "That kid officially worships you."

"Meh." She rubbed the tiger's head as he rubbed against her. "Well, Savage it is."

She grinned. "Speaking of worship..." She strolled over to Jordan, laying her hands on his chest. "Care to see if the table I designed can hold our weight?" She winked. 

"You know, I wondered why this thing was shorter than a normal table." 

"Why, to align with crotches, of course. Why else?" She rolled her eyes. Pushing down her pants, she nipped at his lower lip. "And lacquered to hell, to prevent unwanted splinters."

He chuckled and ran his hands across her naked ass. "The shit you come up with."

"Oh, I certainly want you up..." Reaching into his pants, she pulled him free. Up and down she stroked his hardening dick. 

He pressed his mouth to hers, as his hands came up to her neck. Lightly nipping his way across her lips, he made his way down to her chin, to her neck, and to that sensitive point that made her crazy. One hand went down to her hip and he pushed her back towards the table. 

She slid her butt across, and spread her legs to let him in. Her hands went around his back and up under his shirt, where she dug her nails into his back. He groaned into her neck and adjusting his hips, slipped neatly into her waiting wetness. Her knees came up to his hips, and with a free hand he clung to a leg. In and out he moved himself, enjoying the sensation of her soft, wet center sucking at his dick. 

Little by little, he began to slam in and out of her, as she clung to the table. She bent her head down and bit his shoulder, as she began to shiver and clamp down on him. He released himself with a grunt. 

She licked his shoulder. "You're always so tasty, one of my favorite meals." She giggled.

He sighed. "You're the one on the table; doesn't that make YOU the meal?"

"Well, you weren't the one eating." 

Running his fingers through his hair, he laughed. "Maybe next time."

Elunara knocked on the door and sighed down at Savage. 

"Enter!" 

She opened the door and the cat dove in before she could protest. 

"I see your new friend has followed you."

"I can't get rid of the bugger." She sighed. "I need to talk to you about Captain Harvard."

"Has something else happened?" Renwa handed the paper in his hand over to Zelinnia. 

"My call? He and his wife are headed for divorce, and she's going to hop the next port back to Stormwind." 

"Grand." 

"He's desperate to prevent his son from being dragged with. I told both man and son that you would ask son what he wanted and... enforce the decision."

"Gee, thanks."

"Hey, you're the Admiral, I'm just the Envoy." She rubbed her neck. "Anyway, I had a talk with the kid..."

"Are you getting in the middle?"

"No, just giving honest answers to a kid that's tired of being treated like a baby. In any event, I don't know enough about kids to tell, but I think he's going to try to stay with his dad. I told Harvard that if that happens, we watch out for each other, and that his kid would be fine." She shook her head. "There's something off about the mother. I can't place it for the life of me. My experiences with her have been thankfully brief."

Renwa tapped his fingers on his desk. He jumped back when Savage put his paws on the desk and sniffed.

"Savage! Down!" She pointed to the floor. 

He looked back at her and slid back down. He wandered over to Zelinnia and stuck his nose to her belly. She froze and stared.

"Don't worry; he's been harmless so far." Elunara grabbed his tail and gave him a tug. 

Zelinnia let go of the breath she was holding. "Yeah, so far."

"He's actually kind of sweet. He's been sleeping in our bedroom floor with Yoona."

"Where is Yoona?"

"Yoona's attached herself to Tulani. Which I actually need to stop, because Tulani's getting frustrated at her tearing up valuable fabrics. I had hoped to get Darguni interested in raising her, but he's being..."

"Stubborn?" Renwa grinned. 

"Well, whose kid could he be at that rate?" Zelinnia rolled her eyes.

"I heard that."

Zelinnia looked over and smiled sweetly. "I know, or I wouldn't have said it." 

"You're getting really smartass in your pregnancy. I haven't decided..." Elunara frowned. "Why are you making that face?"

"Oh, god it hurts." She whimpered.

Renwa was out of his chair and at her side in a flash of movement. 

Elunara stooped down and laid her hands on Zelinnia's belly. "Oh, hell. She's coming now." Elunara put one arm over her shoulder, and Renwa grabbed the other. They both supported Zelinnia as they ran through the door and to the healer building. 

"INA!"

"What?"

"Baby, NOW!"

"Damn, it's too early!" Ina gestured for them to put Zelinnia in a room. "Get rid of that cat!"

"Sorry." Elunara grabbed him by the scruff and dragged him out of the building. "Sorry boy, you can't be in here. Just lay... there." She pointed to the ground. Leaving the cat, she ran back in. Zelinnia was flailing her hand.

"Don't leave..."

"I'm not leaving, sweetheart. I'm going to be right here."

"Nobody tells you this shit HURTS OHGOD!" 

"Shhhh. Squeeze my hand, I can take it. Just ride the pain out." Elunara rubbed her hand on Zelinnia's forehead. "Here, let's see if I can do that thing I did last time."

"Yes. Do that, please do that." She clenched her hand. "OH Gods, why do people do this on purpose?"

"Sweetie, YOU did this on purpose." 

"Next time talk me out of it." She whimpered.

"No." Elunara closed her eyes and prayed. She prayed to lessen Zelinnia's pain, to take it away to where it could not find her. She felt the presence of the baby within her, struggling to be free of its prison. She had no idea how long she sat there, but before long, she opened her eyes to the sound of a screaming baby.

"I don't know how you do that." Zelinnia said in wonder. "But it's so beautiful, and I felt so at peace..."

Ina snorted. "I'm going to make your ass come down here for all my deliveries." 

"I am NOT turning into a midwife."

Leslia handed Zelinnia the baby. 

"Hey, she has your ears at least." Elunara grinned. 

"And that fuzzy read hair." Renwa grinned. 

Ina frowned. "She must have been farther along than I thought. That child is entirely too big to be where she is. 

"Oh, don't tell me she's another Darguni." Elunara frowned. 

"I doubt it. She didn't get AS big AS fast. He kind of exploded. She's just bigger than expected. I wonder if it has to do with her being a half and half. Not much experience with it. Darguni is the first I ever saw, and he's the product of two times, two races, and one of those races being goddamned huge." She wiped her hands. "Who knows at this point?" 

"Well, I think Abigail is beautiful." Zelinnia whispered. "I don't care what they say." 

Elunara kissed Zelinnia on the head. "I'm going to leave you two to get acquainted with your baby. Meanwhile, I'll send Tulani over."

"Can you?" Zelinnia smiled. 

Elunara stepped outside and Savage jumped up to follow. She laughed as she ran her hand on his head. "You really like me, don't you?" 

Jordan met her halfway. "I heard something was wrong with Zelinnia."




For the Whored Ch. 079



"She just had a baby. I've gone to fetch Tulani."

"Ah."

"Do you ever regret that we cannot have children?"

He blinked at her. "Why would I?"

"Some men do." She shrugged and continued on. 

He grabbed her by the arm. "Do you?"

"Oh, gods no." 

"Do you ever regret that you did?" He cocked his head to the side.

"Life is not about regretting an accident, but making the most of what you have. At the moment, the only regret I find myself wondering about is the loss of time. Was there anything in those four years that should have meant something to me? I don't know enough about children to know." She shook her head. "Darguni is a mystery to me, if only for his nature. But, you and I both know I love learning new things." She smiled. "No, he is not a regret to me. I only wanted to make sure you held no regrets."

He took her hand and kissed it. "Nothing we do is regrettable." 

"You're so sweet." She took his hand and they walked home together.

"Tulani!" 

"One second."

"Tulani get your head out of that dress, Zelinnia needs you."

She popped her head out from under the dress she was working on. "What?"

"She just had her baby."

"But it's early!"

"That she is, now GET!"

Tulani dropped everything and took off running. "Keep that stupid cat out of my studio!"

"Don't worry, I'm getting Yoona and we're going for a walk." 

"She's still pissed about that skirt, isn't she?"

"Oh yeah." Elunara got the leash on Yoona. Game to it, Yoona started bouncing around Savage. He whacked her down with his paw and grabbed her by the scruff, trotting outside. "Well, you don't see that every day." Elunara laughed. 

They went outside to find Savage keeping Yoona in place by holding on to her leash. 

"Good boy." Elunara scrubbed her hand on his head and tossed him a chunk of meat. Seeing the treat, Yoona flopped her butt on the ground and waited. With a laugh, Elunara tossed her a bite. 

"Figures, you gotta go for the stomach." Jordan laughed. 

"Well, I'll get this little monster trained, one way or another. You know, most night elves are given a companion early in life and learning to take care of them is part of growing up. I had hoped to instill that interest in Darguni." She sighed. 

Jordan took her hand as they walked. "Once he sees you training that beast, the jealousy will kick in, I'm sure."

"I hope." 

They made their way down to the training yard. Grogek was on the sidelines watching. 

"Hey, Zelinnia had her baby." Elunara grinned.

"She's probably pleased." Grogek frowned. 

"What's the matter?"

"These guys are terrible and won't listen for shit. Got a couple of little fuckers who seem to think your little display just proved how under trained I am." 

"That so?" She sighed. "Which one is the worst?"

"Hammer." He pointed. 

"Nickname or real?"

He shook his head. "Couldn't tell you." 

She handed him the leash. She stepped towards the weapon rack and pointed at Savage. "Sit." Using the staff, she stretched out her back.

"You dueling again?" Called Mark. 

"Not the Generals, just in general." 

She moved to the center of the training yard. "The rule is simple. Anyone who can beat me... gets a free favor." She grinned at Mark. 

"Like... ANY favor?"

"Any."

"Oh, damn." 

"Gerald!"

"Yeah?"

"What're the odds that any of these new guys can kick my ass?"

He snorted. "That's a bum bet, honey. I don't do bum bets." 

"Well, you'd bet on my bum." She winked.

"I already GOT my favor out of you. I'm not going to get my ass kicked for nothing." He crossed his arms. "Besides, you told me I couldn't cheat bets anymore." 

"That I did."

"I'll beat your scrawny Night Elf ass." A big guy with more muscle than brains stepped forward. 

"You must be Hammer." 

"Yeah, what of it? Heard my name from your pussy husband? Or that asswipe you fuck on the side?"

She shook her head. "Listen, twit for brains, until you can come up with a REALLY creative insult, you're just hot air." She cocked her head to the side. "In fact, are those pecs inflatable? They look disappointingly fake." She shook her head and looked back. "Sugarbear, can I borrow your axe?"

"Oh, the usual?" He shrugged and pulled his axe off of his back. Summoned or no, he preferred to keep it on him during training. He dropped the axe on the ground, hilt up. 

"You, dumbshits, pick that up." 

He grabbed the handle of the axe and lifted it a few inches up. She bowed down and looked. 

"WE HAVE A RECORD!" She called. "Seven inches!" She began to clap and shortly everyone followed her. 

Hammer dropped it back down with a huff. 

"Want to try again? You've got course record on that thing. Maybe you can eek a few more out."

"Do you ever fucking shut up?"

"Not generally." She grabbed the axe up and flung it at Grogek, who caught it effortlessly and stuck it back in the sheath. 

Hammer stood there staring. 

"I thought you were going to challenge me, chuckles." 

He looked down at her and growled. 

"Where's your weapon honey? Or are we going to do the whole, bare fisted brawl, thing? I haven't done that in ages."

"That was a fucking TRICK."

"No it wasn't, you moron!" Someone called from the crowd. 

Hammer turned and walked up the hill and came back with a rather large mace in the shape of a hammer. "I'm going to beat your ass and then I'm going to shove my dick up your ass like the whore you are."

"Honey, do you even have a dick to USE?"

Jordan almost choked, Grogek just grinned. 

He growled and took a swing at her, but she dodged it effortlessly. 

"Less power, more finesse. Even if you can destroy something in one blow, you still have to hit it first." She dodged his next several attacks. She flipped over him, and he tried to grab at her, but she stayed just beyond his reach. 

She hopped out of reach before bounding forward and landing on his hammer. She jumped out of the way again and laughed. Dodging back and forth, she made her way in circles around him. When she went to jump over him again, he jumped up, grabbing her by the ankle and slamming her to the ground. 

"So you CAN learn tactics. Just checking." She jumped up, grabbed her staff and charged at him. She slammed her staff into his stomach and brought it up, cracking him in the chin. She stayed inside his range, darting in and out. His fist came up, but she was faster and he punched himself in the face. In the crowd, there was a collective "ohhh". 

She slid out of his range. "Not fast enough! Nice try though!" She swept his feet out from under him and jumped on his chest. She jammed the heel of her foot into his nose. 

He dropped the hammer and grabbed his face. "OW, FUCK!" 

The crowd began to cheer and she bowed dramatically.

Jordan turned away with a grin. "Is it wrong that I get a massive hard on every time she does that?"

Grogek snorted; his own grin evident. "I'm just better at hiding it." 

He sat up with a groan. 

"I'm not completely mean." She put her hand on his cheek and concentrated. "There, that should take the worst of the pain."

"You're a PRIEST?" He gawked in disbelief. 

"Not a chance. I'm just one of a kind. Now get off your ass and fall in line, this bastard planet needs every one of us to tame it." She stood up. "Anyone more takers?" She grinned. 

Mark sighed. "Well, I was considering it, buuuut no. I like my face intact."

"Oh, I like your face too, doll. I would have gone for the gut." She smiled sweetly and walked off, putting her staff back on the rack.

Jordan shook his head. "You enjoy that entirely too much."

She ran her fingers under his chin. "Apparently you do too."

He flushed. "Damn your hearing."

She laughed. "I keep hearing that too." She took Yoona's leash and kissed Grogek on the cheek. "Let me know if I have to come back."

He grinned. "No, I think it's time to beat the shit out of them myself." He pressed a kiss to her mouth 

She purred. "Perhaps tonight we can all have a little fun." 

Grogek's hand came down her back and across her ass. "I look forward to it." 

She laughed and ran her fingers under Jordan's chin again. "It's a date." She sauntered off, Jordan in tow. 

"What the hell IS she?" Grumbled Hammer. 

"Nothing you'll ever understand. Now get your ASS back in line. That duel was sloppy and worthless."



For the Whored Ch. 080



Elunara was staring at the drawing with some concern. Something was off about it, but she couldn't figure out what. At the knock on the door, she stood up to answer it. Opening the door, she was shocked to feel arms around her waist. She looked down at Bradly. 

"Shouldn't you be playing with the other kids?"

He shook his head.

"Can I help you?"

He nodded and wiped his tears on her shirt. With a sigh, she closed the door and sat her drawing on the table. "Go sit on the couch." She pulled out a chair and turned it around. She sat down, arms over the back. "Spill it."

"You were right." He wiped a snotty nose on his sleeve.

"I'm right about a lot of things, kid. What am I right about today?"

"My parents are breaking up."

"Ah." 

There was another knock on the door and she got up to answer it. Seeing Harvard, she held out a hand and jerked her head. The relief on his face was obvious. He started to step forward, but she held out her hand and shook her head. Understanding, he nodded and stepped back. She shut the door in his face.

"Am I bothering you?" 

Savage got up and licked the kid's hand. Yoona started bouncing around, but he whacked her with a paw and sat on her. 

"Nah, I was just doing some paperwork." 

"How did you know?"

"I've been studying people for years. I know them, often more than they know themselves."

"I just don't know what to do." The tears welled up. 

"Kid, I'm going to give it to you straight. This was always going to happen. You not only have nothing to do with it, but there's nothing you can do ABOUT it. Even if you were never born, these two people would have come to this same point the same damned way." She shook her head. "All you really can do is man up and listen to your heart. I can't tell you what to do, I can't tell you what to choose, but I can tell you that your mother would only be happy if things were exactly as she had them. Your dad will only be happy if he follows his heart and joins this army. So, now you have to carve your own path. You can do it alone, or you can accept support from those who wish to give it. In the end, you'll be the sole decision maker in your own life. Dragged here, dragged there, it all amounts to the same, you are under someone else's power."

"Power?" 

"You have more power than you think. In fact, you have more power than your parents think. They've known you all your life, but do they actually KNOW you? Can they tell you what you want? No."

"They treat me like a little kid." He pouted. 

"That's the danger of being a parent. They saw you as you grew, but they still want to protect you, keep you little, keep you safe. It only last so long, and they want to hold on to it."

"You do the same to Darguni?"

"When I'm not thinking about how dumb that is. In the end, I think that parents have the difficult task of learning when to push you farther, and when to hold you back for your own good. I worry for Darguni's safety, but I also know who his parents are. He's going to be a monster, in the best possible way. The end result is that a parent should push their kid farther than they've ever been. As badass as I am, I'm going to screw up, he's going to be mad at me and I'm going to be mad at him. In the end, all I want is for him to be the best he can be."

"I wish my mom thought that. All she wants is for me to stop being annoying."

"It might just not be in her capacity." She shrugged. "What DO you want? And before you say it, you can't fix this between your parents. You can't. What YOU have to do, is to decide what's best for you. What would make you the happiest?" She stood up. "Hold on." She walked in the back room and pulled out a framed picture. She handed to him.

"Whoa..." He ran his hand over the glass. "That's me?"

"I took a little liberty with the pose, but I thought you'd like it."

"This is the coolest present ever."

She held up a finger. "Ah, no. It was a commission, you paid me and everything. I take my commissions seriously. In the end, you have to decide, is it going on your wall here? Or are you taking it back to Stormwind to show your friends there?"

He ran his hand over it. "Can I... send it with my mom? So she can have my picture?"

She spread her hands out. "It is yours; you may do with it as you please. You can always commission me again. Just remember, whatever you chose, it will be permanent. Choose your words and your actions carefully, because they can never be changed. Never act in anger or haste."

He nodded. Clutching the picture he climbed off the couch. 

She opened the door. Harvard was sitting in the dirt, head leaned against the wall. 

"Dad! Look!" He showed the picture to his dad.

"That's amazing, did she give you that?"

"I commissioned it!" He said proudly. 

She leaned against the doorjamb as they walked off. 

"Not good with kids, huh?" 

Jordan's voice made her almost jump out of her skin. "Good lord, don't do that."

"My gods, I snuck up on Elunara? Someone mark this on a calendar!" 

She smacked him on the arm. "Smartass."

Bradly was standing by his parents, clinging desperately to his picture. They had stopped speaking to each other and Elunara hurt for the kid. She stood beside Renwa and Grogek awaiting the next shipment of soldiers. The mages were going to send things back before they started bringing them forward. 

The woman stooped down. "Bradly, this is it; this is your last chance. Come with me, come home."

"No Mom, I'm staying. I already told you, this is what I chose."

"Bradly you're barely seven, you can't be serious."

"Mom," He held up the picture. "Take this; I can stay with you like this. That way I can do what I-"

She slapped the picture out of his hand. "I refuse to take anything that whore touched." 

Tears welled in his eyes. "But, Mom..."

She grabbed his arm and yanked him painfully forward. "I've had enough of this, you're coming with me."

"Barbara..."

"Oh, shut up, Harvard." The woman backhanded him.

Harvard rubbed his face in shock.

Elunara charged forward. Renwa reached out to stop her, but barely missed. "Shit."

"Listen here, you obnoxious twit. This child has chosen his path, and you will damned well let him take it."

"You shut your whore mouth!" Barbara shoved her finger in Elunara's chest. "I'm sick of you tainting my family. First my husband, now my child... You're just filthy. You can't get enough of them can you? Lord only knows how you've corrupted your half breed brat."

Elunara cracked her across the face. "Say what you will about me, but you will leave MY child out of it, and hell, YOUR child for that matter." 

"You BITCH!" She held her cheek. 

"This could be the last time you ever see your child, and you want THIS to be the last he remembers of you?"

"I'm taking him with me!"

Elunara grabbed her by the wrist and twisted. "You will let him GO. He has chosen his path."

"He's SEVEN!"

"Old enough to choose. He chose." 

Barbara raked her nails across Elunara's face. 

"Seriously?" She sighed. Elunara stood on one foot and kicked Barbara in the ribs. "I've had enough of you." She grabbed her by the throat and threw her into the portal. 

Bradly sat, dumbfounded in shock. 

Elunara picked up his picture and wiped it off. "I guess you're keeping it."

Bradly took it and stared at it for a moment before holding it over his head, obviously intending to smash it. Elunara grabbed it from his hands and then handed it back to him. 

"Don't let her hatred ruin your picture. Don't let anyone's hatred ruin things you enjoy." She put a hand on his cheek. "Where did that bruise come from?" She whispered. "Let's heal this, heal some of the hurt you've endured."

With tears in his eyes, he wrapped his arms around the picture and then arm around her leg. She sighed as she waited for the next order of troops to come through the portal. Soon, the families of the troops came through. Bradly gasped and tugged at her pants. 

She looked down and he beamed at her. 

"My friends." He whispered.

"See? Now you can show them your awesome picture."

When the portal closed, Bradly ran forward.

"Thank you so much." Harvard whispered hoarsely. 

"Gods, don't cry. I may barf." 

He gave a watery laugh. "You're something else."

"Join my fan club." She snorted. 

Renwa eyed the man in the front and wandered over. "General Duchie, it's been ages."

"Admiral now, same as you." He grinned as they shook hands. "I've been sent to start my own town, same as you were. They told me you were the best man to come to for advice."

"We've turned our little town into one of the most desired hubs out in this hideous mess." Renwa grinned. "I can't wait until you meet my wife and daughter."

"Finally a family man, eh? I guess you finally gave up on that Elunara." He shook his head. "Speaking of which, why was a battered woman flung through the portal?"

Renwa chuckled. "Because of that Elunara." He pointed.

"You got her to marry you?" 

"Lord no, I got her to find me a wife." Renwa chuckled. 

"So, why did Elunara beat up some woman?"

"Because she was in the process of physically and emotionally beating up her kid who wanted to stay here." 

"Ah."

"Come, there's a lot you should know."

"Like, why there's an Orc standing over there?"

"That's General Grogek. He trains our men. He married Elunara."

"My brain kinda hurts."

"Grogek, is married to Elunara, who is married to a female Draenei named Tulani, and they live with her lover, Jordan. You know, Captain Jordan, now General?"

"I... Wait, I thought Jordan was in love with you?"

"No... turns out he was in love with Elunara."

"I'll be damned."

A small child ran past and clung to Elunara's legs. "Momma! Yoona ate some of Momma Tuly's fabric again." 

Elunara laid her head back and roared in frustration. "She's going to KILL ME!" 

"Oh yeah, that's Grogek and Elunara's child, Darguni." 

Duchie just stared at Renwa. 

"Go play with Bradly's friends. I'll deal with that damned cat."

Darguni frowned. "But..." 

"I think Bradly will be MUCH nicer now."

He pouted. "If you say so."

Elunara turned and ran. 

"Yeah, Elunara is also living with a pair of tigers. One that was a gift from Darnassus, the other a random wildcat that decided it likes her."

"This town is strange." Duchie shook his head. 

"Oh, wait until I get to the sexual healing, and the fact Elunara eats energy."

"WHAAA?"

Renwa patted his shoulder. "Come let's get you started by meeting my wife, Zelinnia. She's a Blood Elf."

"I'm going to need a drink."

Darguni shuffled over to Bradly and his friends. One of the girls shrieked and pointed.

Bradly turned and spotted Darguni. He lunged forward and grabbed his friend's hand. "This is Darguni; he's half Orc, half Night Elf. His dad is General Grogek, he trains the men. His mom is Elunara and she's the coolest person I've EVER met." Bradly wrapped his arm around Darguni. "She says that when HE grows up, he'll be AMAZING because he's got their blood."

"Momma said that?"

"Uh huh, she said that if you pick the right path, you'd be better than all of us."

"Right path?"

"I think she meant that you had to be good, that..." He looked confused and rubbed his head. "I didn't understand all of it, but she said that good people are the best kind of people. That if you're mean and ugly, you'll be mean and ugly." He shook his head. "Your mom is so cool, she keeps saving me." He straightened his spine. "I want to grow up like her."

"I want to be like my papa." Darguni declared proudly.

"Your mom really loves you." Bradly said quietly. "I wish my mom loved me." He clutched his picture tightly.

"Papa is always laughing about how momma takes in all the strays, and that she has enough love in her heart to eclipse the sun. Maybe she can love you too."

Bradly looked up with hope. "You think?"

"Yeah!" 

"Then maybe we could be brothers? I always wanted a brother." He bit his lip. 

Darguni put an arm on Bradly's shoulder. "Then you can be my brother. Momma is married to Papa, and Momma Tuly and she still has Uncle Jordan. They're all our family, even though Momma Tuly and Uncle Jordan aren't blood. You can join our family too."

"But, what about my dad?"

"He'll always be your dad. Once, I asked Uncle Jordan if he was my dad too, and he laughed and said if that's what I wanted. I just call him Uncle Jordan because that's what he asked to be called." 

"Your family is weird." One of the boys wrinkled his nose.

"Isn't it awesome? Weird is the best kind." Darguni nodded.

"No it's not." 

"Yes it is." Declared Bradly. "Elunara's family is the most amazing family in town, everybody knows it. Anyone who argues... has to declare themselves in the ring."

"The ring?" Asked another. 

"The challenge ring in the training yard. If we ask real nice, we can get Momma to declare herself again."

Bradly bounced on his feet. "Can we?"

"Just wait until AFTER Momma fixes Momma Tuly's studio." Darguni nodded sagely. 

"Is it ok if I call her Momma Elunara?" Bradly fidgeted his feet.

"You'll have to ask her that. You might have to earn it." Darguni whispered. 

"Well, she's nicer than my mom was, maybe I'll just call her that in secret."

Elunara sighed as she scraped a pile of useless fabrics into a wastebasket. She was going to kill that dumb cat. Four Hundred gold in bolts of fabrics was nothing to sneeze at, and it would take some working to get it even replaced. 

"Momma?" 

"Yes, dear?" 

"Bradly wants to ask you something."

"Shoot." 

"Uhh well... it's just..."

She sat down her broom and stood up. "Spill it, kid."

"Can... can I..."

Elunara sighed and leaned against the desk. "If you don't own what is in your heart, you'll never find your future."

He quietly repeated to himself what she had said. It sounded deep and important. "Can I call you Momma Elunara?" He blurted.

She was glad she wasn't holding anything, because she would have dropped it. "What?"

He fidgeted his feet and hands. "You said to follow what is in my heart!" He cried. "My heart says that my mom didn't love me. You... you showed me more love in the past couple of weeks, than she has in... a long time." He finished quietly. 

"We thought that... he could be my brother." Darguni grinned nervously. 

"What does your dad think of this?" 

"I... I haven't told him yet. But you... you bring people into your family, and I thought that we could be family." Bradly sniffled. 

"And it'd be like me calling Momma Tuly, Momma Tuly." Darguni grinned, his fang sticking up. 

Elunara gave a shaky sigh. "Fine, if that is what makes you happiest."

The two boys cheered and hugged each other. 

"Since you're now IN this family, you can do your part and take Yoona out for a walk." 

"They lock her in my room, come on!" 

Tulani found her sitting in the floor, staring into space. 

"Are you alright?" Tulani knelt down and put her hand on Elunara's forehead. 

"Bradly was here again."

"Oh, I heard about what happened."

"He wants to call me Momma Elunara." She stared down at her shaky hands. "I think I'm crying? I'm not even sure."

"Oh my." Tulani sat down too. "What does his father say?"

"He hasn't told him yet."

"Ut Oh." 

"I know, right?" Elunara wrapped her arms around Tulani and let out a shuddering breath. "I'm not sure I've ever been so moved in my life."

"Oh," She stroked Elunara's hair. "I'm sure that once you think about it, you'll find plenty of emotional moments to compare."

Elunara laughed. "Yeah, this is one for the books."

Grogek walked in and frowned. "What's the matter?"

"Bradly wants to call me... Momma Elunara."

Grogek chuckled. "Well, you did just defend him from his own mother, and kicked her into the portal, which was kind of funny, I have to say."

"He wants to call Darguni "brother"." 

Grogek's mouth dropped open and he just stared.

Jordan walked in and laughed. "Hey guys, where's the par...? Baby, what's wrong?"

The door slammed behind them. "Momma Elunara! Yoona just ate some lady's basket." 

Jordan stared down at Elunara. 

She wiped her face and stood up. "That cat is a complete menace!" 

Jordan looked to Tulani and mouthed: "Momma?"

Tulani nodded. 

"I told her you'd pay for it." Darguni looked guilty. 

"I'm going to have to focus on that stupid cat for a few days." Elunara sighed. 

Yoona was bouncing around Savage and he whacked her with a paw and laid on her. 

"I think I know how to do it, too." 

"Well, I gotta go. Dad's gonna worry." Bradly sighed. 

Elunara crossed her arms. "And you have something you need to talk to him about." She raised her eyebrows. 

"Oh yeah!" He said brightly. He wrapped his arms around her waist. "I love you, Momma Elunara." 

She found herself sitting in the floor. 

Darguni climbed in her lap. "I have a brother!" He declared proudly. He wrapped his arms around her neck. "I love you too, Momma." 

With a sigh she hugged him back. "You two are going to drive me insane, I just know it." 

Bradly stood outside his door, reluctant to go inside. He took a deep breath and manned up like Elunara said to do. He shoved open the door and froze when he found his dad sitting in a chair, crying. 

Harvard quickly wiped his face. "I'm sorry. I didn't expect you back yet... I... son, sometimes, men cry... and"

"And it's okay. Elunara says that, if it's in your heart to do, then sometimes you just have to do it."

Harvard nodded and wiped his face with a napkin. "She's a wise woman, that Elunara." 

"Dad..." Bradly stepped forward and hesitated. In his heart or not, it was difficult to do. "Dad, I talked to Elunara..." 

Harvard sniffled. "And...?"

"I... Well, I asked... I don't mean to hurt you more."

Harvard shook his head in confusion. "What?"

"I'm not being clear." Bradly bit his lip. "I have to be clear. I asked Elunara, if it was OK to call her Momma Elunara." He stared at his feet. 

"You did what?" Harvard whispered. 

"Well, it's just that..." He clasped his hands in front of him and winced. "It's just that she's shown me more love in the past couple of weeks, than Mom had in..." He shrugged vaguely. "She was always so mean and got so mad all the time. And treated me like I was stupid, and hit me when she was mad." He frowned. "Momma Elunara treats me kindly, and she doesn't lie or hide things. Darguni said that she's always bringing people into her family, and I thought that... I thought that Darguni could be my brother. I always wanted one of those." He added quietly. 

"You want Elunara to be your mother?"

"Not like a replacement, but like... a stand in? Maybe. Darguni calls Elunara Momma, and Tulani is Momma Tuly. So like, Momma Tuly, who's Darguni's other mom, but not his real one. Does that make sense?"

"I... guess it does." He whispered.

"You'd still be my dad. Because you're my dad." Bradly stepped forward. "I love you, you're my dad." He said more firmly. "You'll always be my dad." Bradly smiled hopefully.

"I..." He ran his hands through his hair. "I can't believe what I'm hearing." 

Bradly bit his lip and cringed backwards, fearing the worst.

Harvard wrapped his arms around his son and fought tears. "How could I have let it get this bad?"

"Bad?"

"That you'd want someone else to be your mother."

Bradly shrugged. "I guess I was jealous."

Harvard looked at his son. "Jealous?"

"Yeah." Bradly sighed. "I shouldn't have been so mean to Darguni. He had two moms and two dads, and I had a dad that was there but gone and a momma who was gone but there. I shouldn't have been mean, but Darguni accepted me into his family anyway. Isn't that something?"

"Yeah. Something." His voice sounded hollow to his own ears. "You know what?" He gently pushed Bradly away. "It's late. We've had a long day, why don't you go up and I'll come up and read you a story?"




For the Whored Ch. 080



"That'd be nice." He smiled. "Can I call her Momma Elunara?" He put his hand on his chest. "It's in my heart to do."

Harvard scrubbed his hand on the kid's head. "Yeah, knock yourself out."

As Bradly ran upstairs, Harvard watched him go, and then stared at the stairs. Suddenly he regretted not taking the soldier's quarters. He paid the extra fee to get his own house, and he didn't know a thing about it. Now his son was calling a woman he barely knew, "Momma". He scrubbed his hands over his face. He was going to have to make a trip to Elunara's house tomorrow.



For the Whored Ch. 081



He took a deep breath and knocked. She yanked open the door and stared at him through one eye. Her shirt was skewed and her hair was everywhere.

"Harvard. I'm sorry, Captain Harvard."

"We both know that rank out here is worthless."

"Yeah, basically. Though it tells Grogek where your experience is. I figured you'd be by. Come on." She yawned and stretched before digging down two cups. "Coffee?"

"Yeah, sure."

She poured them and then flopped down in a chair. She took a big gulp, swallowed and pointed. "Yoona if you go in that damned door again, I will personally yank out every last claw."

The big black tiger wandered over and lay on top of the yowling white tiger cub. 

"Good boy." She tossed him a chunk of meat which he swallowed. 

"The wild cat is better behaved than the purebred. Isn't that just the way?" She sighed. "Listen, you're here, which means Bradly told you. Bout damned near broke my mind." She laughed and chugged her coffee. "I used to be the most reviled creature in creation. SI:7 loved me. In fact, I was their best operative. I would fuck the target, and slit his throat while he was still sticky." She snorted. I come here and suddenly I have a husband, then a wife, and everyone loves me and I have this kid... gods, where did it all go so wrong?" She sighed. 

"I... have no idea what to make of that."

"Nobody ever does." She shrugged and leaned back. "I'm going to be honest with you; I'm not a nice person. I pride myself on that. Ask anyone and they'll tell you that I'm mean as a snake, difficult to handle and impossible to control. Renwa himself calls me a migraine waiting to happen. I LIKE that about myself. But, here's the thing," She pointed at him. "I have a strange view of justice and I'm not afraid to exercise it. That was my only intent yesterday, was to assist a kid who could not help himself. 

Why I wasn't expecting that to bite me in the ass, I will never know." She sighed. "But your kid did something for me, without even realizing it." She twisted her cup in her hands. "Ever since I was pregnant, I have desperately worried that Darguni would be ostracized. I was so irritated at your kid for causing him any pain. Then... yesterday, he called Darguni brother, and I freaking broke down in the floor and cried. Because above all, he has a friend and I don't have to worry anymore."

She finished off her cup and leaned back in the chair and snagged the pitcher. "More?" 

"No."

She chugged directly from the pitcher. "Gods, I hate the taste of it. I try to avoid drinking it, but I have a full day."

"Am... I intruding?"

"Not this early. Gods no. If Grogek hadn't shoved me out of bed, I'd still be asleep." She shrugged. "Besides, you're a man with a shitton on his mind. When you feel like talking, you go at it." She walked into the library grabbed her things, and then sat down and started sketching. "I have to keep my hands busy, and you wouldn't be happy with my usual methods." 

He blinked dumbly at her. With a sigh he ran his fingers through his hair. "I had just lost my wife, and then my son walks in and tells me that she never loved him anyway. I... I've lost her so many times in so many ways since I've been on this god forsaken planet, I don't know why I stayed."

"Because the truth is a nasty bitch." Elunara shrugged. "If you HAD gone back with her? She wouldn't have changed, she'd just have a higher sense of superiority, and you'd have the shame of fleeing." 

"That... sounds pretty accurate."

"I once had King Varian Wyrnn in my bed... or maybe I was in his, I forget at the moment. Anyway, and he told me, that my best feature was my ability to cut through the bullshit and just say things how they are."

He gave her another stupid look. 

"You don't have to believe me, because I really don't care." She shrugged. "Forgive me, I cranky this morning. I got a system overload last night, I don't handle those well." 

"I don't know what that means."

"I'll explain later, pardon me for interrupting." 

He sighed. "I don't know what to make of you. My son probably harbors a crush of some sort from when you saved his life. That much I understand. I hurt my feelings when it was you he ran to. I just had my eyes opened to the meanness that existed in a woman I thought was just hard due her circumstance in life. When you slapped her, it made me realize how little I had tried to stand up for my own son. It was just another one of her snits, she was his mother, she had every right to keep him, I wasn't worthy... You get the idea."

Elunara shrugged. "I understand your position, but I don't know how it is, because those kinds of thoughts have long been beaten out of me. My own mother banished me from my home. She tried to mold me into something I was not, and when I finally acted out..." She shrugged. "I understand Bradly way more than I understand you." 

"That's awful."

"It's ok; I proved myself and got to return home for a short while."

"I'm not going to block him." He shook his head. "I've lost enough of him. I have to cling to what I got. I'm thinking of going to a soldier's room."

"I'll talk to Renwa; get you an officer's quarters, if just for the kid. I think Jordan's old room is free."

"Please explain your relationship... relationships." He corrected.

"I am married to Grogek, and I am married to Tulani, and Jordan is my lover. To explain the set up, I sleep in a bed with Grogek, but Tulani's is near enough that I can slip into hers. Jordan has his own bedroom. This is how we are all comfortable with each other."

"Do you ever..."

"Sometimes we pair, sometimes someone watches, sometimes we trio and still others we have all of us. Just whatever suits at the time." 

"Bizarre." 

She grinned. "I'm insatiable." 

There was a knock on the door and she sighed. Renwa and a new guy were standing there. 

"Hey, sexy." 

"Elunara, this is Admiral Duchie. He's been ordered by King Wrynn to start a new town, and to get my inside expertise."

"Sorry, you can't duplicate me." She grinned. "How's Varian these days?"

"King Wyrnn?" Duchie blinked.

"I know the size, shape and taste of his dick, I can call him whatever I damned well feel like." 

Renwa smacked his forehead. "Are you drunk?"

"I got overloaded last night." 

"Ah." He rolled his eyes. Noticing Harvard he frowned. "Are we interrupting?" 

"Nah, we were discussing yesterday."

Darguni and Bradly ran up to the door and she held out a hand. "Why are you here, sugar muffin?"

"I've come to ask you to do a demonstration."

"Ah, damn, I've got a full day and I've been drinking coffee all morning and it's NOT cutting it."

"You and I both know that you'll recharge faster at the demonstration."

"Yes, Momma Elunara! Please?" Bradly clapped his hands together. 

Renwa stared at Harvard in shock and the man just lifted his hands in defeat.

"Ugh, Fine. Before you overload me again." She slammed the door on the lot of them. She turned to Harvard. "I'll be back, just... whatever." She sighed. 

Harvard scooted out the door and closed it quietly behind him. "What does "overloaded" mean?"

The two boys ran off to go get their friends. 

Renwa watched them get out of earshot before turning and walking to the training yard. "Elunara is an amazing creature that absorbs energy from positive feelings directed at her. Things like love and affection fuel her. Sex? Is a massive shot of energy. She has three people that share her bed... what do YOU think that means?"

Harvard's eyes grew wide. 

"Before you ask, your boy is in no danger. No one is. She can never take more than is freely given in her direction. She cannot manipulate this energy in any way." He shrugged. "In some ways, it's like being force fed, and she can overload on it, giving her the same symptoms as a drunk person."

"In some ways, it's like being drunk, and the morning after is a disgusting hangover." She grinned.

"Feeling better?" 

"Bleh, no. I better have a crowd." She snorted. 

"Zelinnia took Abigail to the hill with Tulani."

"Well, there's a plus." She pushed on past them and walked up to Grogek on the side lines. She grabbed him by a fang. "You gave me the hangover, you can start me off." She pressed her mouth to his. 

There were several cheers in the crowd. He laughed. "Feeling better?"

"No, but Renwa wants a demonstration. Where's Jordan?"

"Right here, Baby." He grinned. 

She grabbed the front of his shirt and kissed him too. "Fight me. Both of you." She shook herself. "Oh that hits the spot." She walked over to the rack and grabbed her staff. 

Like a magical tide, the center cleared off. Any straggler was grabbed by a nearby soldier and dragged out of the way. 

"Hey lovers, it's time for FUN!" She held her staff aloft. The crowd cheered and she closed her eyes and just absorbed the feel. 

Grogek pulled his axe and Jordan pulled his sword. They stood on both side of the ring, with her in the middle. They began.

Admiral Duchie raised his eyebrows. "They start out vicious."

Renwa sighed. "Yeah, I don't think any of them knows the meaning of restraint."

Mark snorted. "Elunara does, but that usually means ropes and leathers."

Renwa raised his eyebrows. "Been on a visit have we?"

"Gods, have I..." He looked up and flushed. "Uh, sorry sir." 

"No offense taken, I know how she is."

Mark scooted off anyway.

"I still can't believe you have such a strange person here." Duchie shook his head. "Should she be in Stormwind..."

"She'd still be working for the SI:7. She was their best. No one has a mission success rate that she does, nor gathered as much information as she has. I've literally seen her climb out of bed with a man and slit his throat, wipe off her dagger and say "What's the next assignment?" She once snapped a man's neck while his face was buried in her crotch. She gives vicious a new name."

"Do I really want my son to idolize this woman?" Harvard whimpered.

"She's mean as a snake and a walking migraine, but everyone loves her. She has this... skewed sense of justice and will fight for anyone. I know everyone has seen the man known at the shit cleaner."

Duchie nodded. "Why doesn't he have a real name?"

"Because that man tried to rape Tulani. Elunara embarrassed him in front of the whole town after he did something stupid. Since he could not hope to defeat Elunara, he decided to get his revenge by attacking Tulani. Zelinnia saved her... Her clothes were torn off, and she was covered in blood, cowering when I came to the scene. Zelinnia had fought the man off. Every single scar you see on his body, Elunara put there. What you don't see, is the fact she cut off his balls, and after he blacked out from the pain... she dumped a bucket of ice water on his head."

Both men were staring in horror. 

"You sound like you watched." Harvard murmured.

"I did. The entire town watched. No one moved a muscle to stop her. Everyone loves Tulani, she's the sweetest thing you will ever meet. She belongs to Elunara. Elunara rescued her after she was sold into the sex slave trade. You'd figure that a woman, who made her life in sex, would be the worst possible choice for a woman tortured with it. But, they have a love that will damn near break your heart to watch." 

Elunara was still going full tilt, but you could tell her combatants were running thin. It was Jordan who dropped to his knees first. 

"If you tried to call Elunara sweet or kind, she'd probably punch you in the face out of principle. But it was her that gave clothes to a group of women that had been rescue from slavers. It was her who put her body in front of a mad man to save a random Blood Elf's life. Zelinnia was saved by Elunara. Elunara had already married Grogek in a ceremony, had already given birth to Darguni. But, Elunara had been kidnapped by a lunatic, and during one of her ploys to try to escape, he GAVE Zelinnia to Elunara. When Elunara expressed a desire to release Zelinnia, the maniac pulled his axe to kill her. Elunara jumped in the center and seduced the orc. Instead of trying to find a way to escape on her own, it became Elunara's goal to protect the Blood Elf. And when Elunara tried to wash it off as no big deal, Zelinnia yelled at her. Said that... she had never seen eyes so dead." Renwa sighed. "There are moments when I wonder if my own wife loves that lunatic more than me."

Grogek stumbled and Elunara pressed her advantage. Grogek grabbed her by the arm and dragged her to him, kissing her soundly. He laughed. "Now, you're just cheating." 

"Well, I am feeling pretty frisky."

"Yeah, but Renwa might have a shit again."

"Oh, fine." She stepped back. "I CALL THIS A DRAW!" She pointed with her staff. "Jordan totally loses though."

"Bah!" He used his sword to pull himself up. "Doesn't matter, because at the end of the day..." He kissed her. "And the end of the night." He murmured. "I'm still a winner!" He kissed her again, sliding his hand down her back and across her ass. 

"My turn." Grogek tugged her to him and devoured her mouth. 

She pushed him away with a giggle. "Party's over boys!" Most of the crowd groaned. "I have appointments to get to."

"Hey!" Someone called. "When's the next south orchard?"

"Sorry my lovelies," She bowed. "I'm booked up this week. I'll see how crazy I feel next week."

"What's south orchard?" Duchie frowned. 

Renwa shook his head. "You don't want to know."

Harvard shook his head. "I can't believe them. I... I've only seen that kind of lip locking IN PRIVATE with my wife... and here she's in the center of everybody with two of them." 

"And this is Elunara's family. If you want to see interesting, wait until Tulani gets involved." He laughed. "Elunara will use her body for pleasure, anyway she wants. As much as she wants, with as many men as she wants."

"That just doesn't seem normal."

Renwa raised an eyebrow. "It's not. It's Elunara." 

He stared at the door and frowned. There were do not disturb signs, and one that said "even Grogek" on it. He knocked and waited. 

She unlocked the door and yanked it open. She was completely naked. "Can you not read?"

"I..."

"Go home. I'll talk to you after I'm done." She slammed the door in his face and locked it.

He guessed he'd asked for that one. He made his way home and sat down in a chair. He had been dismissed from duty that day. Bradly wasn't home, as he was too busy running around with his friends. He sat and stared and wished he'd thought to buy some alcohol. The knock on the door had him jolting. He opened the door.

"Now what was so important that you ignored my signs?"

"I... I don't even know. I guess... I wanted to know what you were doing." 

"I was fulfilling a couple's fantasy of a threesome." 

He stared at her. "Just like that?"

"Just like that. It's what I do. Is that all?"

"I just don't understand you. I spoke with Renwa, he practically repeated you. But he also talked about you and... I don't know. He admires you." 

"Meh. Old News." 

"I've been trying to decide if I should trust my child with you. I mean, he..." Harvard sighed. "He just likes you so damned much." He put his head in his hands. 

"Yeah, that's a weird one." She shrugged. "In the end, I'd rather you liked me enough to make your kid happy. That's about as far as I go with that little nugget. We're going to have to deal with each other. Cause my kid is already annoying me about letting your kid stay over."

"I guess I have to agree."

"You don't have to do shit." She shook her head. "Your kid thinks he loves me, because I've given him something he didn't have. If you want him to think you love him, then you have to do the same thing. Show him what love is; show him what YOUR love is."

"Do you love him?"

She shrugged. "Love and I are strange bedfellows. I don't love easy."

"But... you..." He sputtered.

"Don't take things at face value. My world is not your world. Can I love your child? The possibility is strong, but I'm still trying to figure out how to love my own child. You can't just use the word and not mean it. I refuse to use the word until I am so sure, there's nothing else left. He's a good kid, and he knows his heart, or at least he's trying to. You should learn your heart and share it with your kid. I can love your kid just as I love my own. Can you?" 

Grogek marched through the soldiers with a growl. He grabbed Harvard by the shoulder and turned him around. "I don't care about your personal issues. Get your head in the work, or leave. You're going to kill somebody." 

"Sorry, Sir."

Grogek took the sword out of his hand. "Head your ass to my wife. Figure out your issue and get the fuck back here." 

He found himself knocking on the door. 

She opened it and peered at him. "Oh. What now?"

"I've been screwing up in training, Grogek told me to come figure out my issues." He sighed.

"Get in." She jerked her head back. She walked away and headed into the library. She collected her board and papers. 

He stood there in the door of the room and marveled at the collection of books. "You must love to read."

"I wrote them." She gestured. "This is basically every moment of my life. Mostly pictures, but you get the idea."

"Holy shit."

She snorted. "Try reading them."

"Um, could I?"

"Knock yourself out. You still have to follow my signs though, or I'll break your face." 

"I've seen you fight, I'd rather not risk it."

"Shug, I'm not a hard ass. Well, I am, but if you want to read my books, you can. Lots of people have. Come on; let's get you in the chair."

"The chair?"

She gestured to the chair and sat on the couch. Popping open her board, she began to sketch. "Feel free to talk, or sit there, hell I don't care." She continued with the drawing she'd started the other day.

"What exactly do you do here?" 

"Portraits for one. Bodies for Ina's identification books for another, followed by the pornographic set for my own collection. I'm sure you saw the pictures on my walls."

"I can't believe you keep those out with a child."

"He's a boy; he's seen his own penis. I've told you, I don't change. He barely notices them anyhow." She flicked her eyes up and down as she drew. "I'm going to tell you now, that I for one think you should do the picture for Ina's books. Something happens in the long run, we can identify your body."

"Yeah, I... I like that idea." 

"If you wish to add yourself to my books, you can. But we'll see how we go. You may have heard other soldiers discuss the full treatment, which basically means, you pose for my books, and I make sure you get off."

He flushed. "Get off?"

"You know, orgasm, come, which ever term you like." 

"You would..."

She shrugged. "Only if you want it. Believe me, I'm the best."

"I can't believe I'm even having this conversation." He muttered as he ran his hand across his face. 

"You know, I'd go for the full treatment. You're a man who just had a messy divorce and spent the last couple of weeks in a fog. I can show you a fun time, and take your mind off of things."

"But, you're..."

"A lot of things. An expert in sex is one of them. Grogek knows what I do, as does Tulani, and Jordan, and seven tenths of the town. They've all had their time right where you are. But, believe me, I'm clean. I get checked by Ina and the other healers weekly. It turns out, the energy that has given me such massive stamina all these years, also keeps me clean and healthy." 

"But..." He said weakly.

"Don't think of me as Elunara, think of me as a means to an end." She nodded at her board. "Now, stand up, and let's begin the body recognition portion of this."

By time she got him to remove his pants, he couldn't decide if this was relaxing or terrifying. She was running her hands all over him, inspecting every inch of his skin. It was near impossible to keep from getting hard, so he finally gave up. When she reached his penis, he found himself holding his breath. He hands continued over his legs, across his feet and finally around his ass. To distract him, he glanced at her board. What he found blew his mind.




For the Whored Ch. 081



"This is amazing." He whispered.

"Eh, it's a little rough. I'll fill in the fine shading later."

"Gods..."

"You're entirely too tense." She massaged his shoulders. "I know your life is tough right now, but you're going to have to let it go in order to properly train and take care of yourself." She slid a hand around his torso and ran her fingertip across his dick. "Let me relax you." She purred. 

"I..."

She licked his earlobe.

"Ok." He breathed. 

She slid around to the front of him, her fingers on his chest. "I'd say you made the right decision." A hand went down and stroked the length of him. She put her mouth on his chest and started working her way down his belly and finally licking the length of him.

He shuddered and grabbed her shoulders.

She licked him up and down, twirling her tongue around him, before kissing the tip of his dick. She slid her mouth over the tip and sucked gently, before starting to work her way down. She stopped every inch or so and sucking, until she made it to the base of him. Softly, she juggled his balls in her hand, before beginning the slide up and down him. When at last she felt him start to shiver and shake she slid back and moved out of the way. 

She watched him squirt with some interest. "Nice range on that." She commented. She pulled out the small bucket under the couch and tossed a bit of sawdust on the mess. Reaching in the other bucket she pulled out a towel and handed it to him. 

"You're awfully prepared." He managed.

"You don't want to know how many people I have in here weekly." She grinned. 

Once he was dressed, she opened the door to turn her sign, and found Grogek leaning against the door. 

"Oh, hey, been out here long?"

"A bit, it's fine." He kissed her on the mouth and sniffed. "You've been busy." He looked over. "Ah, good."

"What happened to your shirt?"

"Not my blood."

"Someone's a squirter."

"You're telling me." He laughed as he headed up stairs. 

"I can't believe you kissed him when..." Harvard shook his head.

"If I stopped kissing my wife after every time she's had a dick in her mouth," Grogek was leaning over the banister. "I'd never get to kiss my wife." He grinned before disappearing in to a room.

"He's not wrong." Elunara shrugged. 

"This house makes my head hurt."

The door burst open and Darguni and Bradly ran in. 

"We circled the house for FOREVER!" Darguni complained.

"Sorry, busy."

"Hi, dad!" Bradly beamed. 

"Can we walk Yoona?" Darguni grinned.

"You know where her stuff is." She pointed. 

"Yeay!" Bradly cheered. 

"And this time make sure she doesn't eat somebody's stuff!"

Darguni went to the kitchen and grabbed the satchel of meat, while Bradly got the leash and cat. The two boys grabbed parts of the leash and led the bouncy cat outside. Savage walked out of the room and rubbed against Elunara. She gave him an absent scratch.

"You let them walk that cat alone?"

"Darnassus sabrecats are known for their gentleness and loyalty. Only a pair of hyperactive kids can keep up with her boundless kitten energy. She'll be a good companion for the both of them, if we can teach her some manners."



For the Whored Ch. 082



Elunara took her next book up to the Healer's Building. "Hey Ina, I got you a new one."

She flipped through it. "Nice enough. Not many new ones?"

"Not lately." She sighed.

"Disappointing."

"I'm going to have to go deal with it." Elunara sighed. 

Savage had become her constant companion, and Yoona was starting to fall in. Elunara went through and grabbed some of her older work and her board. She loaded up the board and grabbed a book, heading down to the training yard. She strolled past everyone and climbed on to the platform. Holding her board in the air, she called out.

"ATTENTION EVERYONE!" She waved. "For all of you new folks, my name is Elunara. Yes, I am THAT Elunara! For your information, the rumors are TRUE! I'm a mean ass bitch who will slit your throat and forget you exist."

Several residents chuckled. 

"Oh yeah, I also have probably fucked half this town."

"Half?" Someone cried. "Isn't that number a little low?"

"I was TRYING to be POLITE!" 

Many laughed at that one.

"ANYHOW, my main profession in this town, aside from that other thing, is portrait and body recognition pictures." She popped her board up and pulled out some papers. She held the book up high. "You see, I started a project a few years ago, in which I draw detailed reference pictures of soldier's bodies. We start off with a nice tame little portrait and I then have you take off your clothes and I do detailed reference sheets. I then take these sheets to Ina, in the form of a book. When you get injured, or sick, or die, she can look in these books and see you at your healthiest in order to help you. I have done HUNDREDS of these, and they have helped many. Should you become dismembered, I would still be able to return you to your families." 

She walked back and forth. "I have brought you many examples so that you may see what it is I do. If you are married, gay or just plain not interested in me, this is not a problem. I ONLY give the full treatment to men, and the occasional woman, who ACTUALLY want it. I do not have to hunt for prey; I get enough to eat as it is. You don't want me, then I don't give a damn about you. I am only doing this to help out Ina. No matter what your body is like, you need not be embarrassed, these are all PRIVATE. You can ask anyone, they will tell you I stick to my word."

She shuffled her papers. "There are many men who have had this done, that I have not touched. You can ask around. I have done some of these for married couples; I have done them for children whose parents wanted a keepsake. I am gentle and I am kind. Nothing on your body will freak me out, I've seen them all. Any of you who show up and think they deserve a blow job, and I will rip your nuts off and stuff them down your throat. I am performing a service in the name of helping people. I don't want some dickless asshole thinking he's got the best package I've ever seen. OK? Thank you for your time."

She sat down and spread he pages out.

"Not many new people showing up?" Jerry hoped on to the platform and sat next to her. 

"Yeah, I've got about ninety percent of all residents done, but none from the new load." 

"That sucks. You do good work."

"Thanks. How's Louis?"

"Gotta head cold. Nothing for it."

"Hey, I got a question." Jerry whispered.

"Hmm?"

"Louis and I got into an argument that only you can settle." He blushed.

"Spill it."

"Who's better? Grogek or Jordan?"

She giggled. "Grogek is built for power, and endurance. Jordan is the slow, attentive type, but he's built for speed and agility. Between the two of them, there's no way TO compare them. It depends on what I want."

"Dammit." 

"Who was your bid?" 

"Grogek." 

"Yeah, but doesn't Louis have a major crush on Jordan?"

"This is true." He sighed. 

A man broke off from the pack and came and peered at her pictures. "You drew these?"

"Every one." 

"Damn. That's impressive."

She handed him the book and he began to flip through them. 

"You know, I was at Harvard's room yesterday, and I saw that picture you did of his kid."

"Bradly's a good kid." 

"Harvard's a little brain struck by how much he's kid's taken a liking to you."

"He's not the only one." She scoffed. 

"You think I could get one of those portraits for my wife?" He sat the book down.

"I'll set you up." She grinned. 

When he walked away, Jerry sighed. "I need to ask you a favor."

"Give."

"There's a soldier, Lucy, who came through with this batch. She came through with a woman named Terica whom she calls her sister. They don't act like sisters." He shook his head. "But they refuse to acknowledge themselves."

"Why sisters?"

"Because you can pull relatives through, but not a lover you don't claim."

"Well, if they don't want to come out, that's their problem." She raised an eyebrow. "How long were you and Louis hiding it?"

"Well, I don't want to out them, but I think they could use a friend." Jerry shrugged. "When we were still hiding it, it was nice to have you to talk to." 

"Ugh, I hate when you puppy me." She sighed. 

"Puppy?" 

"When you act like a cute little puppy." She sighed and gestured with her hands. "The big soulful sad eyes, please love meeee."

He wrapped his arms around her arm. "PLEEEAASE? DO it for MEEE?"

"Oh gods, stop." She shoved his face. "Stop! I may barf!"

"You two make me sick."

Elunara looked up. "Oh, Hi, Hammer." 

"Can't keep your filthy hands off of anyone, even if your husband watches you."

"Pftt, he likes it when I let him watch. Besides, Jerry is my friend, and I don't have to justify shit to you. Do you want a portrait or not?"

"Yeah, I'll sign up for your little... project. It sounds like fun." He sneered.

After he walked away, Jerry hissed in her ear. "Don't do it. This guy sounds like... you know."

She rolled her eyes. "Don't worry." She patted his head. "You forget who you're talking to."

Elunara pulled out a chair and plopped it next to the two women. "Howdy."

"Uh, hi?" Said one.

"Names Elunara. Was told you're one of our troops." 

"Yeah. I'm Lucy, this is my... sister, Terica."

"If you say so." Elunara shrugged. "You should join my project." She held out pages. "These are the ones I did for my wife Tulani. She said I could show you since you're female. I don't show these to the men, and I don't get that many female troopers." 

Terica eyed the pages with some interest. "Your wife?"

"Yes."

"I'm surprised you're so open." Terica gave a pointed look to Lucy.

"Well, technically, General Grogek is my husband," Elunara began to tick off points. "Tulani is my wife, the three of us got married in a ceremony in the middle of town, was gorgeous. General Jordan is my lover, Darguni is mine and Grogek's child, but Tulani did all the mother stuff cause I suck at it." She sighed. "We're the weirdest family you'll ever meet." She grinned. 

"That's... a lot to take in." 

"Might as well. It's public knowledge." She took the pages back. "Anyhow, I'm gentle as a lamb and very respectful. Honestly, I tend to not prefer females other than my wife. I only have sexual experiences with women who desperately want to give it a go, but I don't think you're one of them." She smiled. "So you're safe from me. Oh, there's Tulani now." Elunara waved. 

Tulani stepped over and smiled. "Hello." She said quietly. 

"Tulani, I was just telling them that I'm gentle at my job."

Tulani brushed a lock of hair out of Elunara's face. "Well of course you are. You have given the bodies back to rape survivors." She looked at the two women. "That's how we met. I was rescued from sex slavers by a band of adventurers and I heard about this woman who drew bodies for identification. Me and three others came and she drew us. She gave us our bodies and our spirits back. When they discovered the kind of person she is, they became cruel and treated me badly." Tulani sighed. "She had done them a great service, and given then new clothes to wear, and they were just so hateful because of her bizarre past." Tulani stroked a hand down Elunara's hair. "She saved my life. She gave me a job, taught me how to just live. You'll never meet a sweeter person."

Elunara sighed. "Tulani..."

"I'll never take it back." Tulani bent down and kissed her. "Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to pick up Eloise's sandwich order." She smiled, bowed slightly and walked away.

Elunara watched her for a bit. With a sigh she turned back to the women at the table. "Anyway, if you want to join the project, just let me know." She smiled and got up. Walking over to Tulani, she ran her hand down her hip. "How's your day going?"

"Better, now that that cat of yours isn't shredding my fabrics." 

"You're never going to let me live that one down, are you?"

Tulani ran her fingers across Elunara's lips. "Probably not. At least Darguni is enjoying the responsibility now." 

Tippy came out and handed a Tulani a box. "Would you two get off my counter? I'm jealous enough of you two as it is." She sighed. "When are you going to come through on that promise of an eligible bachelor?" She pointed at Elunara.

"Honey, I haven't found one that would appreciate you like he should. If I don't find a candidate soon, I'll have to petition Varian to send me some men."

"Would he?"

"I don't know, how fondly does he remember me?" She winked.

"Ugh, knowing you..."

"It could go either way." Tulani laughed. 

"I still can't believe you got Gerald married off. Do you KNOW how long I worked on that boy?"

"He wasn't to your tastes anyhow. I found him someone more his speed." 

"You need to con Jerry and Louis into getting married." 

"Whatever for? They're happy enough as is."

"Those boys fawn over each other like nobody's business, but I want a wedding to cry at, dammit." 

"Pfft, you just like the catering business." Elunara waved her off. 

"But they're so damned cute."

"You don't HAVE to be married to enjoy someone." 

Tulani sighed. "Here she goes again. I need to get back."

Elunara straightened up and wrapped her arms around Tulani, kissing her thoroughly. She ran her hands down Tulani's ass and grinned. "Maybe tonight we can have a similar... discussion."

"Oh, you're always such a cunning linguist." Tulani giggled, before she turned and jogged out. 

Eloise sighed. "You did that just to annoy me. How the hell do you have THREE of them at home? This is killing me." 

"Well, I'd have five, but Zelinnia and Renwa are just too in love with each other." She giggled. 

"I still say you should make an honest man out of Jordan and marry him too."

"Ugh, you and weddings. Jordan doesn't NEED all that from me."

"But he'd sure as hell like it." 

Elunara groaned. "You're not there at night, lying in our bed, having this conversation. You don't know WHAT he likes."

"But you've HAD the conversation!" Tippy pointed.

"I've ASKED him if he misses it, and he gives me this confused look and..."

"Misses what?" Jordan raised an eyebrow. "Are you debating with Tippy over weddings again?" He gripped her ass.

"YES!" Elunara threw up her hands. 

"The wedding debate, huh?" Zelinnia slipped under Elunara's arm and leaned against the counter.

"I'll be back with your sandwich." Tippy left the room.

Elunara slipped her fingers under Zelinnia's chin. "You're looking well today, darling." Elunara kissed her nose.

"Mommy life is agreeing with me I think." Zelinnia held open the front of her dress. "Look! Boobs!"

Elunara peered in, slipped a hand down and cupped one. "Your tits were already beautiful sweetie, now they're just larger." She moved her hand out.

"I wish they'd stay this big." She sighed. 

"You'd figure they'd have a spell for that." Elunara considered. 

"I've TRIED. Ugh, you have no idea." She sighed. "Yours are nice, good size." 

"Meh, they serve their purpose."

"Don't taste half bad either." Zelinnia muttered.

"Five, four, three..."

Zelinnia turned bright red and laid her head on the counter. "DAMMIT, I thought I stopped that." 

Elunara laughed and rubbed a hand on Zelinnia's back. "Sweetie, don't ever change." 

Tippy came out with a box. She frowned. "She said something else didn't she?"

"It was a doozy." 

Tippy put her hands on her hips. "Dammit!" 

"WHY does everyone expect this of ME?" Zelinnia cried. She took the box, dropped the coins and took off running out of the door.

Jordan snorted. "That never gets old." He sighed. "Have to admit, they were pretty nice tits."

"You know, she going to see you one day, and have it dawn on her that she did that." 

"She flashed him too?"

"Technically, she flashed ME, Jordan just happened to be standing behind me."

"I miss all the fun!" Tippy tossed her hands up. 

"Alright, I need to head back."

Jordan kissed her and gripped her ass with both hands. "Love you."

"Love you too, sugar." She grinned.

"Oh Gods, you people are so freaking sappy. I swear if I spent the night, I'd probably throw up." Tippy sighed. 

"No, you'd probably join." Elunara winked and walked out. 

Tippy scrubbed her hands across her face. "I'm straight, I'm straight. I do not want Elunara."

"Give up, and give in. That's all anyone can do around here." Jordan grinned. 

Terica sighed. "You can't get any stranger than that family." She stirred her tea.

Lucy just flushed and drank her coffee.

Elunara whistled as she finished up the final lines on her newest commission. She might have another one for Ina's book after she finished this. A knock on the door interrupted her. She dropped her pencil and made her way to the door. Savage stood by the door. 

"You're such a funny kitty." She grinned as she scratched his head. She opened the door and smiled. "Hi. Terica?"

She stepped in. "Forgive me for intruding."

"Nah, its fine. If my sign isn't up, you can knock."

Terica eyed Savage. "That's not a Darnassus cat." 

"He's from here. He's a sweetie."

He made a chuffing purr towards Terica.

"Come, sit." Elunara gestured to the chair. "Forgive me while I get my board." She came back in and smiled. "I have to keep my hands busy. Feel free to say what's on your mind."

"I have a feeling that you knew we were not sisters." 

"First, I was alerted to you existence by Jerry, who is in a relationship with Louis and they're from the original load over. Second, once I got a look at the both of you... pfft it was obvious. Your facial structures aren't even in the same range. I know faces, I know bodies. You two aren't related."

Terica sighed. "I often wonder how many people put it together so fast."

"More than you think and less than you think." Elunara shrugged. "Most people ignore things they aren't looking for." 

"Lucy thinks that we should hide. That the only way they would have accepted her into the guard was to be straight."

Elunara shrugged. "I take it you don't like it."

"It's one of those lies on a lie. She thinks we have to keep the lie going, or there will be consequences." 

"Here, in the middle of bumfuck nowhere, we welcome weirdness and embrace our delinquent behaviors." Elunara grinned. 

"Well, at least you do." 

"Admiral Renwa is married to a Blood Elf. Jerry and Louis are gay, Mark married the sister of the man I near tortured to death, Gerald is married to a woman I helped hook him up with. I'm married to an Orc, a Draenei, and just about married to a Human. There's a Warsong orc running around that thinks I'm his blazing goddess, and some guy's kid calls me Momma Elunara. This place is pretty damned fucked up, sister." Elunara sighed. "Oh, and this wild tiger has decided I'm his new best friend." She scratched his head. 

The door opened and Tulani walked in carrying her basket. She looked over and frowned. "I'm sorry, I didn't see the sign."

"I didn't put one out. We're just chatting." Elunara smiled. 

"Where's that menace?"

"The boys have her." 

"Then I'm safe to open my door." Tulani nodded to Terica. "Have a nice day." She stepped in and closed the door.

"Menace?"

"Oh, I have a sabrecat that has a liking to Tulani's cloth. Keeps shredding the place." She sighed. "She's costing me a small fortune in fabrics." 

"You have children?"

"Technically, I just have the one, but Captain Harvard's kid Bradly has taken to calling me "Momma Elunara" and now the boys are just inseparable."

"That's so sweet."

"It's freaking me out is what it is." Elunara grumped. "The end result is the same though, this town is weird. A pair of lesbians is old hat." 

She tapped her chin and rearranged everything again. She wasn't sure how she would play this one, he was too volatile. She'd fly by the seat of her pants and call it good enough. When he knocked on the door, she smiled invited him in and flipped her sign. 

"You may start either sitting or standing."

"I'll stand."

"Do you want a portrait first, or do the body recognition?"

"Body."

She shrugged. "Alright, take off your clothes, you can sit them on the couch or in the chair.

He dropped his pants and kicked them to the side.

She rolled her eyes and reached for her board. His hand shot out and grabbed her by the throat. Shock kept her from reacting as he flung her across the room. Coughing, she tried to regain her feet, but he was quicker than before. He grabbed her by the neck and flung her backwards into the table. She was knocked dizzy by the blow and she tried to pour her energy into her self healing. Grabbing a handful of her hair, he yanked her up and slammed her into the top of the table.

"I said I was going to fuck you in the ass." He growled.

"Should have bought me dinner first." She hissed as she kicked back, catching his balls and dick with her foot. 

He howled in pain and flung her by the hair into the wall. She bounced off of it and coughed. Her vision was blurry and she struggled to stand. He was on her in an instant, grabbing her by the throat and holding her against the wall. She flexed her hand and used her dagger into the side of his hand. He roared again and kicked her in the stomach. 

The air was knocked out of her as she slid to the floor. She gasped and tried to stand again, only to have his foot catch her in the head. She was slammed back against the wall as he continued to kick. She swung her knife down and punctured the top of his foot. She vaguely heard the shattering of wood and wondered if he'd kicked her through the wall. She looked up, and was aware of Savage's massive paws on the back of Hammer's shoulders. He grappled with the cat and she stood up shakily. She jabbed him under the chin before kicking him in the chest. 

He fell backwards, and Savage leapt off of him, quickly putting himself between the asshole and his master. He gave a ferocious growl. 

"Good boy." She huffed. She went to the door and opened it, falling out. 

Harvard saw her fall and he ran to her, pulling her into his lap. "What happened?"

"Get Grogek." She sighed as she tried to focus. 

"Darguni!" He yelled. "Go get your father!"

Darguni took off running.

"Momma Elunara, what happened?" Bradly knelt down beside her. 

"Stop moving so much, kid. I got a headache."

"Bradly, go get Ina." Harvard frowned.

"Right."

"Hammer..." She pointed. "assholes are assholes."

Grogek arrived first. He knelt beside her and ran his hand on her cheek. "What happened?"

She pointed inside. Grogek frowned as he stepped in.

Ina arrived and started examining her. "She has a concussion."

"He's unconscious." Grogek growled. "What did that asshole do?"

"I think he was trying to pay me back. He said he intended to fuck me in the ass." She sighed. "I like it rough, but that just takes the cake." 

Jordan jogged up. "Darguni said something happened to Elunara."

Grogek growled. "Take her to the healer building. Harvard, help Jordan while I haul this asshole out of my house."




For the Whored Ch. 082



Renwa sighed. "Maybe, just maybe you can NOT go for full humiliation of an idiot so just MAYBE he won't try to kill you over it?"

"Oh, shush." Elunara laughed. "Besides, I thought that, after I got my hands on him, I could just convert him like the rest of town." She sighed and held her head. 

Grogek, Renwa, Jordan and Harvard were all standing around her in the healer building. 

"What should we do with the worthless fucker?" Jordan crossed his arms and seethed.

"I say we take him out to Gorgrond and dump him. If he's as awesome as he thinks he is, then he'll survive just fine." Elunara snorted. "If he comes back, he'll do it crying like a bitch."

"Marvelous idea." Renwa snorted. "I'll put together a team of men. Grogek, Jordan, I can't let either of you do it, you understand." 

Grogek nodded. "The punishment is acceptable to me. I'll give you some names of men who will make fine escorts for this." 

"I'll go." Harvard frowned. "I may not understand Elunara, but a man who attacks any woman deserves what he gets. I'll make sure he's dumped appropriately." He nodded.

Elunara scratched her head. "You're not exactly trained."

"It's a short mission. Also, I think it would do Bradly good to see me step up to a responsibility."

She sighed. "Fine. I'll watch the kid." 

"Thank you." He put a hand on her arm. "I trust you."

"Gods, you're going to make me cry again. Please don't, my head hurts."

She was sitting on the platform by the training yard showing the two boys her work when the commotion started. She dropped her things and fell off the platform as she ran across to the crowd of soldiers. She closed her eyes as her worst fear was confirmed. She dropped down on to the body and concentrated. She put her hands on his chest and forced her energy out. She continued to try, even as the arms came around her and dragged her back.

Bradly was lying on top of his father, crying and screaming.

"You can't save him." Grogek frowned. 

"No. I can't. He's too far gone. It's an empty vessel." She sighed. She wrapped her arms around Bradly. He tried to fight her off, but she hugged him tighter. "Bradly, follow my energy. Feel it wrap around you, surround you, feel the ebb and flow. I reach and I reach into the nether, but I cannot find him for you. He has gone beyond hope at this point."

"But why?" He cried. "Why?" 

Grogek looked up. "Good question, what happened?"

"Hammer turned and grabbed Marshall's sword, tried to go after Marshall, but Harvard dove in the way. He took the hit." Steve shook his head. "Nothing to be done."

"Your hear that?" Elunara mumbled in Bradly's ear. "Your father died a hero. He died to save someone else."

"But what about me?" Bradly buried his face in her chest. "What about me?"

Jordan scraped his hands through his hair. "Yeah, what about the kid?" He whispered. "He has no one."

Elunara looked up. "He has me." 

"And me." Darguni said timidly. "He's my brother, so I have to take care of him." 

Elunara smiled at him. "You're a good boy." She stood up with the sobbing boy in her arms. "I'm going to Renwa." 

They watched her walk away. "I guess our family just got one bigger." Jordan commented.

"She has so much love in her heart, it just spills over." Grogek sighed. 

Elunara entered the office without bothering to knock. Renwa opened his mouth and then promptly shut it. Zelinnia stared.

"What happened?"

"Captain Harvard was slain by Hammer. They just returned with his corpse. I tried repeatedly to revive him, but he had already passed beyond my help. I've come to let you know that I'm taking Bradly into my care."

"Temporarily, until things can be arranged?"

She felt his grip on her tighten. "No sir, I'm pretty sure this is one of those "forever" deals. His mother has left, his father is killed, and there is no further family I know of to contact. He's mine now."

Renwa nodded his head. "We'll make sure it is well documented then." He nodded to Zelinnia. 

She stepped out. "I'm going to have to put you down sometime, kid." He nodded and she slid him down to the ground. "Listen, you've taken some hard knocks in your life that much is true, but it's not the end of the world, or even your world. You're stronger than you think. I know things haven't been so good since you got here and quite frankly, you just want to curl under the nearest chair and call it done. But, here's the thing, you can't. None of us can. When my mother told me I was the worst thing to happen to Darnassus, it was awful, but I built my life out of it. 

I understand pain and loss on magnitude you couldn't possibly dream of. However, nothing I have experiences has come close to your experience, because pain is felt differently by different people. Things that should have been traumatic to me, wasn't." She shrugged. "The bottom line is this. You get two, maybe three days of sympathy out of me, and that's my limit. You can cry, you can whine, you can wallow in the floor like a slug. But after that, you will get up and move it. The pain will ALWAYS be there, but you can do things to lessen it. I'm not going to ask you to be brave, or buck up or any of those stupid things adults say to kids and each other. 

It's up to you to pull yourself through this. I will be there for you to help you. Darguni will be there. I'm sure everyone else will try to help you. But I expect you to come to terms with it and figure out who you are on the inside. You got me?"

He nodded.

"Good. Let's go get your stuff, and then I'll take you to my home, and you can cry all you want." She held out a hand. 

She held his hand on the way there and after filling a small box with things, she held his hand on the way to home. She sat the box on the table and went to Darguni's room. 

She put her hands on her hips. "Well, when your bed is delivered, we'll get it arranged, but for now, let's put your picture up." He watched her as she moved around the room. She stood back and eyed her handy work. "Oh, right, I have something for you. I was supposed to deliver it tomorrow, but today is as good as any." She came back with a package wrapped in cloth. 

He eyed it with a frown, but pulled the cloth off anyway. It was a large picture of his father, standing in full armor. Fresh tears streamed down his face.

"Well, if it's that bad, I'll put it away."

"No! No, I want it." He hugged the picture. "It's mine."

"We can put it on the wall next to yours. That way, you can always stand together." She took the picture and hung it up. She stepped back and smiled down at him. "There, much better." 

He wiped his nose on his sleeve. 

She stooped down and put a hand on his head. "I know it's difficult, but you'll adjust. I have faith in you. You're part of our family now. Follow my rules and do as any adult here tells you, and you'll get along just fine."

He wrapped his arms around her neck. "I love you, Momma Elunara." He whispered. 

"I love you too, kid." She hugged him tightly.



For the Whored Ch. 083



She sat at the top of the hill, drawing the scene below her. A sound caught her attention and she looked over the ridge. She closed up her board and waved to Grogek. Making her way down the hill, she met the procession. 

"What's the deal?"

"Elunara, one of the many people I need to deal with." Varian frowned. 

"What am I accused of this time?"

"I want my son returned to me, NOW!" Said a voice. 

"Over my dead body, you bitch." Elunara growled. 

"We will take this to Renwa's office." Varian growled back. 

"Sure, I'll lead the way. He's gotten a major renovation since you were here last. In fact, he has a wife and child."

"I am pleased to hear that. Renwa is a good man, deserving of such gifts."

"Yeah, his wife is the Blood Elf." 

"A... seriously?" He stared at Elunara.

"Yeah, things have gotten a little wild. Did you know that General Jordan is now living with me?"

"What of Grogek?"

"He's still my husband, Tulani is still my wife. Our kid Darguni had age spike jumps when we went to Darnassus."

"Yes, your mother, Tyrande said you had repaired your relationship in a strange way."

"Yeah, apparently all those guys I've fucked? I absorb energy from them. Any energy they willing give me, I... eat."

"Even me?"

"Even you." 

"Fascinating."

"Wait, you've had sex with this woman?" Barbara scoffed.

Varian looked back. "A couple of times, actually."

"Officially admitting to it now?"

"You no longer work for the SI:7, which declassifies you, and strangely, everyone who has come back from this place, speaks of you in revered whispers. I have been tended to by Elunara is something of an honor."

She groaned. "I should just kill myself and be done with it." She knocked on Renwa's door. 

There was a pause and a shuffle, followed by "Enter!"

Elunara opened the door and grinned at the disheveled Zelinnia. "Getting use out of those bigger tits, aren't you?" She pointed.

"Hush." Zelinnia flushed. 

Zelinnia's eyes went wide and she ducked under the table.

Renwa stood up. "Sir! Had I known..."

Varian held up a hand. "I came on a very important matter. This woman," He gestured. "Claims that she was trying to return to Stormwind with her child, when Elunara interrupted and physically assaulted her."

Renwa shook his head. "It is my understanding that Barbara and Captain Harvard were having family problems and had decided to split. Barbara wanted to go back to Stormwind and Captain Harvard wanted to stay here for training. They decided to split, leaving their son, Bradly in limbo. When it came down to it, I asked the boy where he wanted to go, and he said stay here. The portal was cast and all was set to go according to plan. Barbara there went back on her word and decided that Bradly was too young to make his own decisions. She got physical with the boy and Elunara stepped up to intervene. Things were said, and Barbara got physical with Elunara, who is... as you know, not one to trifle with. In the end, Elunara helped Bradly exercise his right to choose."

"Where is Captain Harvard?"

Renwa sighed. "He died two weeks ago, killed while trying to protect another soldier in his duty."

"What? Why did no one tell me? Where are his things, why did I never get them back? Not one person in this backwater town has the intelligence to send me any message, or return his things to me?" She stomped her foot and shook her head. "While we're at it, WHERE IS MY SON?"

"Like you give a damn about him." Elunara growled. 

"Where is the boy?" Varian interrupted.

"Elunara has taken him into her family." Renwa said quietly. 

At the knock on the door, Elunara opened it. Darguni stuck his head in. "They said the King of Stormwind was here, I wanted to see him, Momma."

"Sure. Knock yourself out." 

Darguni ran in and stared. "Whoa, your armor is COOL!"

"See, I told yo-" Bradly froze, fear and dread in his face. 

Before he could run, Elunara reached out and grabbed his shirt. "Nope, you gotta face this." 

"NO! Don't make me go back, Momma Elunara! Don't make me go with her!" He wrapped his arms around her waist. "Please don't send me away!"

Elunara stooped down. "Honeypot, they'll have to drag you from my cold dead hands. I'm not letting you go."

Darguni put himself in between Barbara and Bradly, showing his teeth. "You can't have my brother!"

Varian watched the exchange with complete fascination. 

"Oh, this is just ridiculous! I am your mother. This whore has warped your mind. Just come back to Stormwind like you wanted before SHE got to you. Back to your friends and your place..."

"NO! My friends are here! That's not MY place, it's YOUR place, and you don't even like me IN it!" He stomped his foot. "Here, I have lots of friends, and I have a brother. No, I'm tired of being smacked just for disturbing you. Momma Elunara's house may be weird, but it's the best kind of weird." He crossed his arms and glared. 

"I have never done that!"

"Yeah, huh! Momma Elunara doesn't say mean things for no reason. She says you shouldn't say or do things you don't mean, because they'll be out there forever and you'll just feel stupid later."

"GODS! Stop calling her THAT. You sound completely stupid. I'm your mother!"

"No." He narrowed his eyes. "Momma Elunara is my mother." 

Elunara's eyes went wide and her mouth dropped open. She had the strongest urge to pull a Zelinnia and run. Instead, she struggled to talk past that lump in her throat. 

Varian had a keen interest in Elunara's reactions. By his guess, she had no idea the little boy felt that way. It was obvious he had been misled. 

At the sound of a baby crying, Zelinnia scooted her chair over and picked up the infant. 

Varian shook his head at the child and returned to the matter at hand. "I believe I've heard enough."

Barbara seemed to sigh in relief. 

Bradly pointed up at him. "If you make me go back with her, you're a bad king. Momma Elunara loves me. She saved me when I was lost in the wilds, she saved me again when SHE," He pointed to his mother. "Refused to listen to my request, and she saved me again when my dad died." Tears welled in his eyes. "She drove dad away, she who said mean, hateful things while dad was away training. She who hated hearing my footsteps in the house. Who told me to find lunch on my own, but never gave me any money to pay with. Call me stupid, call me slow, call me waste of energy, but never say Elunara is bad, because Elunara is the best." He re-crossed his arms. 

Varian raised his eyebrows. "I actually had no intention of making you go back. You seem to know what you want, well enough."

"Elunara says I should learn my heart, so that I can follow it when I need to."

"She has been known to say wise things from time to time." He grinned. "But your words make it more obvious that coming here was a waste of my time."

"You can't be SERIOUS!" Barbara gasped. 

Satisfied the crisis was over, Darguni turned to Elunara. "Can we take Yoona out?"

"Get to it." Elunara jerked her head.

Bradly gave Elunara one last hug before running out.

"This is BULLSHIT!" Barbara screamed. "That is MY child, NOT yours! I gave birth to him, not you!" 

"Being a womb doesn't make you a mother." Elunara rolled her eyes. 

The two boys happily lead the bouncy cat down to the training yard. Grogek was on the sidelines, watching a pair duel when the boys came up. 

"Whatcha doin, papa?"

"I have to watch them fight, in order to know how to tell them to improve." 

"When can we fight?"

"I'm thinking of starting up a junior training yard." He grinned. 

"I want an axe like you, papa." Darguni grinned. 

"I might want a sword, like my dad had." Bradly considered as he looked around. "But maybe I'll just try them all out, so I can figure out what I like best."

Grogek scrubbed his hand on Bradly's head. "That's a good thing to do."

"Yeah, Momma can do some serious damage with a staff." Darguni laughed. 

"Elunara is one of a kind. Don't expect too much with a staff." Grogek laughed. 

"Come on; let's get walking before Yoona chews through the leash." Darguni started walking away.

"Ok, bye Papa Grogek." Bradly grinned. 

Grogek froze and stared at the boy. 

"This is ridiculous!" Barbara screamed. "He is MY son! How DARE you keep him from me! I want her punished!"

Admiral Duchie had come in and was listening to the mess. "You know, I've been hearing all kinds of things about this Elunara, and I've been trying to figure out, why you haven't punished her for any of it."

Renwa sighed. "Fine, come with me." He stood and walked outside. He turned to a runner. "Collect all the townsfolk into the center of town. My orders. I don't care what they're doing, they better drop it. This will only take a minute or so."

He nodded. "Yes, sir."

The group made their way to the center of town, and Renwa and group stood in front of the fountain as everyone gathered. Savage flopped down by Elunara's feet. When he was satisfied by the size of the crowd, he nodded and stepped forward. 

"Elunara put your back to them."

With a shrug she turned around. "I'm curious as to where you're going with this."

"Forgive me!" He called over the crowd. "For I needed to borrow you for a quick demonstration. I would like complete honesty; nothing said or answered here will go beyond this moment. WHO here finds Elunara's actions reprehensible?" He nodded as about fifteen hands shot up. "Now, who would like to see Elunara punished for her actions?" He grinned as only eight people put their hands up. "Finally, how many of you swear your unwavering loyalty to her?" He leaned over. "Turn around."

She rolled her eyes and turned to the crowd. Her hands dropped to her side and she just stared at nearly the entire town on one knee.

"And THAT is why Elunara does not see punishment for her actions." Renwa grinned. 

"What action is Elunara in trouble for?" Someone called. 

"She stole my son from me!" Barbara called in a shrill voice.

"Aren't you that bitch who told him he was too stupid to think for himself?"

"He is JUST a child."

"He may be a kid, but you don't have the right to call him names for wanting to stay with his dad." Someone snorted. 

"Besides," Someone else started. "Elunara has shown that kid more love in the last couple of weeks than we ever saw out of you."

"Yeah!" Someone called.

"You don't know what goes on in my house!" 

"Don't have to." Someone snorted. "It was enough to see the bruises on that kid, especially when his dad was at training all day." 

"How DARE you!"

"No, how dare YOU, lady. Do you know how sad it is, to see a kid happier with a near stranger than he ever was with his own family?"

"Yeah!" Called several people at once.

"Yeah, Elunara does some weird shit, and has a temper like a fire elemental, but she'd never hurt her own kids." Gerald crossed his arms. 

"How many times have I slipped that kid some food, because you conveniently forgot to give him any money? How many times did I go to you and ask you to pay the tab, and you tell me you never gave him permission to eat at my place? Say what you will about Elunara, but I've never seen a more loving and devoted family"

"She didn't even hesitate." Said Steve. "She tried and tried to revive Harvard, but it was already too late." He shook his head. "She pulled that boy into her arms, made him understand the grief, and then turned and said "He has me." It was... it was amazing." He said quietly. "The boy had just lost everything, and she claimed him as her own." 

"And our family grew by one." Grogek nodded. 

"Take your bitchy ass back to Stormwind and never darken our town again!" Someone shouted.

"YEAH!" Yelled the crowd.

Varian's eyebrows shot up. "I see where THIS is going." He shook his head.

Duchie turned to Renwa. "ONE person inspires this much loyalty?" 

"This is why Elunara does pretty much what she wants to."

Bradly and Darguni ran up and wrapped their arms around Elunara. She dropped her hands down on their heads. 

"You won't take me away from Momma Elunara!"

"You can't take my brother!"

"No one can get through me." Elunara grinned down at them. "Where's Yoona?"

"Uhh."

Elunara narrowed her eyes. "Where is that bloody cat?"

Both boys put their hands behind their backs. 

"Well," Started Darguni.

"It was an accident." Said Bradly.

"Where..."

Savage took off and leaped through the crowd. Everyone scattered, but Savage made his way back, cat in mouth. He dropped the cub to the ground and laid on top of her.

"She broke the lead." Bradly laughed nervously. 

"We were chasing her down when we spotted the crowd,"

"And she got out of sight for a moment,"

"So we thought we could find you"

"And have you help us get her back."

"Where is the bag?"

"She..."

"Took it."

Elunara groaned. "I'd drag that thing back to Darnassus if I wasn't worried about the time issues." 

"You can't even control your PET, you let MY child take care of YOUR animal. Yet you think you can take care of MY SON?"

Elunara snorted. "Mine. You didn't deserve him." She bent down and snagged Yoona out front under Savage's belly. "Come on, Let's see what we can do about a chain leash." She sighed. 

Barbara lunged at Elunara. Elunara popped Barbara with the back of her fist, never looking back. 

Renwa shook his head. "I think it's time you left." He grabbed Barbara by the arm and shoved her into the hands of two soldiers. "Take her to the portal drop off. Make sure she waits there for the king." He watched the crowd disperse.

Varian shook his head. "I do believe I am done here." He laughed. "I could not have imagined Elunara as a mother."

Renwa laughed. "You and me both." He shook his head. "But, I couldn't imagine Elunara as married, even when I wanted to propose. Now she's married an Orc no less, and a Draenei woman, and now Jordan takes up residence in her house."

"It's hard not to love that woman." Jordan sighed. 

Renwa clapped Jordan on the back. "Haven't seen you in a few days."

"Been helping Grogek with the new arrivals."

"General Jordan, it's been quite some time."

Jordan bowed. "My king. It is good to see you well."

"I'm to understand that you call yourself Elunara's lover?"

"Yep, I live in the house, I get to... enjoy her company." He grinned. "Though, for awhile there, everyone seemed to think I was with Grogek." Jordan shuddered. "Leave it to Elunara to deal with all rumors." He laughed.

"That IS a disturbing mental image." He shook his head. "I'm not sure I want to know how she fixed the problem."

"By being Elunara." Jordan grinned. 

"And you're fine with her... being her?"

"Hey, you want to give that a go before you leave, I'm sure she'd be thrilled." Jordan giggled. 

Varian stopped, stared and just blinked at Jordan. "I'd say you are." He managed.

"Hey, you haven't seen wild until there're four of you at it." Jordan Shrugged.

Varian blinked. "Tulani gets involved?"

Jordan shrugged. "Only twice. She and Elunara tend to keep their... events to just the two of them."

"Ah." Renwa shrugged. "I'm not surprised, given Tulani's past." 

"She doesn't let it bother her any more. She just has no interest in men. She only gets involved to please Elunara." 

"Makes sense." Renwa grinned. "Elunara can make anyone stronger, even someone with such a nasty past like Tulani."

"Like me?" Tulani cocked her head to the side, basket in hand.

"The slavers."

"Ah." She smiled. "Yes, Elunara gave me... well, me. As long as Elunara is around, I know that no harm will come to me. I know that I can stand up for myself and make a difference. And I know that dratted cat is going to shred my studio if I don't get back." She bowed. "Your majesty." She continued her jog back home.

Jordan laughed. "The one thing Elunara CAN'T control is that dumb Yoona." With a grin he turned to Varian. "Elunara is the single most confusing person to ever live. You either love her, or you hate her, but you can never break her." Jordan bowed again. "It's been good to see you, but I'm going to see if she needs me for... anything." He winked and walked off.

"This is a strange town, you got here Admiral Renwa." Varian grinned. "I leave it in good hands."

Admiral Duchie sat in Renwa's office and sighed. "You can't possibly tell me I have to get my own Elunara to make a town successful."

"There's no Elunara other than the one we have, and she's not leaving." Renwa grinned. 

"I'm still having difficulty wrapping my head around all that you claim has happened."

"Read Elunara's books." Zelinnia shrugged. "They're the most honest account of everything. At least from her view." Zelinnia leaned back, smiling as she fed Abigail. "Elunara keeps a near minute by minute record of everything ever. She'll let you read her books. Just ask."

"At the very least you should get yourself in Ina's body books." Renwa reached for a stack of paper but Zelinnia smacked his hand. 

"Not that one, the other one."

"Right."

Duchie chuckled. "How does she do that?"

"She's never tried to explain." Renwa shrugged. 

"I see things in colors and shapes, instead of the normal ways."

Renwa blinked. "That... doesn't make sense."

"I told you it wouldn't." She shrugged. 

"Anyway, go see Elunara, ask to read her books. You can start from the beginning or you can start from her arrival here. She'll let you do whatever. If you wish to know her, you should start from the beginning."

"I guess I'll go take a look." Duchie stood up and walked out. 

"Mind her signs, she can get really pissy." Zelinnia called. 

Duchie shook his head as he walked through town. The pair of boys were currently showing off the cat to their friends. He shook his head at that one. He approached the building and reached up to know, but saw the "Do Not Disturb" sign, followed by "Not even Grogek." sign. He scratched his head on that one. 

The door opened. "Oh, Uhhh Duchie, right?"

"Admiral Duchie." He frowned. 

She snorted as she flipped her signs. "Whatever." She shoved him backwards. "Forgive the man; he doesn't know how this town works yet." She smiled politely in the house. A man and woman, flushed red scooted out of the house. "He should be smart enough to understand the delicacy of your situation. Now, shoo. Don't worry. I highly doubt he's a gossip monger."

"Oh, um... if I can't figure out... the thing, can you come and show me?" The woman's blush deepened. 

"It's pretty straight forward, but if you need anything at all, just let me know."

"T-thank you." 

"What was that about?"

"Admiral," She started with an air of snot. "I do not discuss my client's private business. Now, what do you want?"

"Admiral Renwa said that, in order to fully understand this town, I must read your books about the events that have happened here."

"Ah, well, you have two options, you can borrow my books one at a time and return them when you're done, or you can sit in my library and read them during free days. You have to observe my signs, or there will be consequences."

"I believe your attitude is too forw-" He blinked at the room filled with books. "Are these all yours?"

"Wrote every one. This is my entire life." She walked over and tugged out a book. "If you wish to start with the founding of this town and my mission into Iron Horde territory, you want this one. You can start wherever you damned well feel like. They're all numbered by date. Try not to get them out of order." She sat the book on the desk and walked out. She tucked her head in. "As for my attitude? I don't even call Varian "king", he's just another guy in my books." She left. 

He stood and stared at the massive room full of books. He picked up the one she'd left out and flipped through it. He winced at the pictures, but found himself interested in the writing. He sat the book down and pulled out random books, flipping through. He tried some of the more recent books. With a great deal of interest, he found himself picking up books numbered one through five.




For the Whored Ch. 083



He came out and found her sitting on the couch, board in hand, working. "Can I borrow these?"

"Yeah, sure, just remember to return them as you finish." She didn't look up from her board. 

"Can I see what you're working on?"

"No, private client." 

"Do you draw everyone?"

"Eventually. But, I always draw those who visit me. Admittedly, I'm not drawing you currently, because I'm busy working on this." She shrugged. "Maybe another time." She frowned as she erased a missed line. 

He blinked at her for a few moments before turning and walking out. 

It took him a few weeks, but he was finally able to finish her last book. He knocked on the door. 

She opened the door and eyed him. "Yes?"

"I've come to return your last one."

She took the book from him. "Do you want a portrait done or no?"

"Actually, I think I do."

"I have time, come on." She gestured to the chair and put the book in her library. She prepped her board and came out. 

He was sitting in the chair, a stunned look on his face. "I've read every last word you've written, and my mind is still reeling from what I have read."

She sat on the couch, popped her board and started working, her eyes flicking up and down as she worked. "You aren't the first, won't be the last."

"You've had a hard life."

"That's your opinion of it."

"Yet, not yours."

She shrugged. "I made the most of what I had to work with. I quite enjoyed myself along the way. I have spent my entire life in the pursuit of my own enjoyment."

"And taking on a boy you barely knew?"

Elunara sighed. "I've developed a habit of saving people. Annoying habit, really." 

"I noticed."

"From this point, you can stand up and start stripping if you want an addition into Ina's books." 

He blinked at her. "Excuse me?"

"I figured you'd be a good example to the rest of the men. Start your own body book collection. Stand up, shirt off, and then I'll direct you from there." She eyed him. "Unless you're too embarrassed." She shrugged. "There's no need to be nervous, dear. I do this all the time. Then again, you saw my books."

He frowned. "I also know what you've done with most of the men."

"Most, not all. There's a distinct line there. I don't touch men who aren't interested in it. I don't need to hunt down prey." 

"Fine." He ground out. 

He re-buttoned his shirt with a sigh. On the one hand, he was not about to join the legion of men who had shared Elunara's body. On the other, she had been so through and so gentle that he had to bite back the pleasure he'd taken in it. 

She opened the door and the two boys bolted in. 

"Momma!" 

"Momma Elunara!"

"What now?"

"Everyone was talking about who was the best,"

"Of course we said you were,"

"But then the argument got said,"

"that how do you find out who's the strongest?"

"And I said, Papa's axe!"

"Yeah! No one can lift Papa Grogek's axe, except you!"

"Well, Lindsy and Aaron argued."

"That it wasn't that tough to lift."

Admiral Duchie raised an eyebrow. "Doesn't that give you a headache?"

"You get used to it after awhile." She laughed. "Come on kiddos, let's go challenge some troops." She led the way down to the training yard. Savage and Yoona sat on the edge. Yoona had gotten better and Savage didn't have to sit on her, though he often did for the hell of it.

"Grogek, my love. I need to borrow your axe."

"Oh?"

"I decided to help our kids win an argument." 

Grogek laughed. "Fine." He went to the center of the ring and dropped his axe down.

Elunara walked out. "Today's challenge! Who should ever be able to lift this axe, shall earn a favor from me. You have to get it more than five inches off of the ground. If you are able to truly lift it, and sling it over your shoulder, will get a special prize." She grinned. "For the record, my mother is Tyrande Whisperwind, and I am personal friends with King Varian Wrynn. My favors go long and far. Just to lift this little axe? Come on, who doesn't want to try for that?" She walked off and climbed on the platform. 

She was suddenly mobbed by kids climbing on the platform. They started cheering and calling for people to compete. 

"MOMMA! YOU HAVE TO!" Yelled one little girl. 

"COME ON DAD YOU CAN DO IT!" Screamed another little boy. 

"Can you goofballs move out of the way?" She laughed. I'm trying to see. 

They tried for hours. Even some of the town's men gave it a shot. Mark got it off the ground, but not high enough. A few others managed to rock it back and forth, but none could get true lift off of the axe.

"Why is it so hard?" One kid asked.

"Honey, that thing weighs like five hundred pounds. Grogek was practically born with it in his hand. The reason he carries it so effortlessly, is how much he has trained." She scooted off the platform and walked to the center. "Time's up!" 

The kids on the platform all cried "awww".

Elunara hefted the axe up. "Maybe next time!" She chucked the axe at Grogek, who caught it midair. 

"How the HELL do you DO that?" Someone asked. 

"Do you have ANY idea what I DO with this arm?" She grinned. Several townies started snickering. 

"Wow, Darguni." Marveled Lindsy. "Your mom is really strong."

"His dad is too." Added Aaron "Nobody could lift that even a little bit, and they throw it around like a stuffed toy."

"She's my momma too!" Bradly frowned. 

"No she's not. I know your parents." Lindsy crossed her arms.

"My dad died to save someone else, and that woman is no longer my mother." He put his hands on his hips. "Momma Elunara saved me THREE TIMES, no one else has saved me once. Since she is my momma, Grogek is now my papa." 

Darguni wrapped an arm around Bradly's shoulders. "And he is my brother. Anyone argues will have to answer to her." He pointed at Elunara. "You don't want to make our momma mad." He warned. "She's crazy strong and crazy mean." 

Elunara flipped through papers as she opened the door. She blinked at the woman. "Can I help you?"

"I'm here to speak to you about Bradly."

"Oh Gods, what has that stupid cat done now, and how much is it going to cost me?"

"Uh, I'm not here about your... cat. I want to speak with you about Bradly."

The boys had tried to sneak in through Tulani's studio, but both froze at Bradly's name. They crept to the door and leaned over.

Elunara's ears flinched at the sound of them, but she opted to ignore them. "What do you want?" She frowned. "I can't imagine him getting into too much trouble."

"May I come in?"

"Knock yourself out." Elunara gestured to the chair. She sat on the couch and opted against the board. 

"I wanted to tell you that I believe your town judged her too harshly."

"Excuse me?"

"You see, Barbara never wanted Bradly."

Bradly bit his lip to keep from crying, while Darguni patted him on the back.

"She only had him because she was worried that Harvard would leave her. Then she did the best that she could-"

"I'm going to stop you right there. There is a MAJOR difference between doing the best that you could with what you don't want, and resenting their every waking moment. I too didn't want a baby, and I too continued on to make my husband, and my wife, happy." 

Darguni frowned and wished he could cry too. The two boys wrapped their arms around each other.

"The biggest difference is that I am actually doing the best that I can. My mother regretted having me, why load him down with that same burden? When I found out I was pregnant, I was so angry and upset that I screamed loud enough for Grogek to hear me down on the training yard. They like to laugh at how Grogek had to force my mouth shut just to stop the noise I was making.

I don't understand children, I barely was one myself, but I understand a child's love. I love my kid. Even with all that has happened; I still love my child. He the best child I could have wound up with. I'm going to tell you something that few people know. I was dying. They didn't know how much I had left. The priestesses of the Moon were doing their best to purify my body. Grogek and Tulani were giving me their energy, but still it wasn't enough. I was on that delicate balance between saving me, and dying. Darguni, in all of his innocence, flung himself at me and pumped his energy directly into my system. It was this amazing act that saved my life."

Bradly stared at Darguni with wide eyes. "You saved Momma?"

"I guess I did." He whispered back.

"That is the power of the love of a child. I am grateful to him for saving my life. When I first encountered Bradly, he was an angry little creature and quite frankly, I didn't like him. But soon I began to realize that it was all misplaced. When he went into the wilds of Draenor, I was the only one who could bring him back. I'm the best tracker, can survive the most hellish conditions. Barbara was so pissed off that I'm the one to bring him back, that it brought all of her rage to a head. It was her opinion that we should have sent Harvard, who had no experience and no idea where the hell to go, rather than the resident expert. I even overheard her make an asshole comments about how I should go put him back where I found him and let Harvard retrieve him like he should have."

"Oh." She frowned. 

"She only wanted him to go to Stormwind with her because she felt that Harvard would trail along like a dog. He told me all sorts of things she said before that day that I threw her through the port. In the end, she was a mean, selfish bitch. That day, I didn't see a little boy that needed rescuing. I saw a kid trying to be a man in a shit situation, and a father that was too heartbroken to do a thing about it." 

Both children bolted out of Tulani's studio and jumped in Elunara's lap.

"I love you, Momma." They both said in unison.

Elunara sighed and laid her arms over both of them. "Did you use Tulani's studio entrance again?"

They both turned red. "Yes..." They said at once.

She rubbed her forehead. "You KNOW you're not supposed to go in there."

"We're sorry." In unison again.

She snorted. "Don't apologize to me. You get to apologize to Tulani."

Darguni looked stricken. "But Momma Tuly..."

Elunara raised an eye brow. 

"Momma, we're sorry. We didn't touch anything." 

"Did you wipe your feet?"

"I'll get the broom, Momma."

Elunara raised her eyebrows at Bradly. "You forget a word?"

He shook his head. "You're my momma 'cause you want me." He wrapped his arms around her neck. 

"Oh, if that's all." She wrapped her arms around him, her voice thick.

Bradly eyed the other woman. "You're Lindsy's mom. She's not very nice. She said that Elunara was not my mom. I told her that, I didn't care what she believed, because I know the truth."

"Good job." Elunara scrubbed a hand over his hair. "Now got sweep the studio before Tulani gets home."

"What an impressive thing to say." She murmured. 

"I won't lie, I taught him that one." Elunara laughed. She wiped the tear that streamed down her face. "I can face down a clutch of twilight dragonkin and say, bring it on. I get undone by a seven year old."



For the Whored Ch. 084



Elunara marched down to the training yard, and finding Grogek on the sidelines, promptly climbed up his back and sat on his shoulders. 

"What ARE you doing?"

"Trying to reclaim some normalcy." She grumped. 

"By sitting on my head?" 

"Maybe." 

"What has you in a funk now?"

"Bradly just declared, in front of the mother of one of his friends, that I'm his mother now, because I want him. He then told her that he didn't appreciate her kid contradicting that decree." Elunara sighed. "Well, he put it in kid terms, but you know what I mean."

"Ah, you were made to feel emotional. Understood."

"Oh, hush you."

"Why are you perched up there like some sort of angry bird?" Jordan sighed.

"Bradly has dropped the "Elunara" part of what he calls me."

"Ah. Emotions."

"Ok, you two are too damned alike. I'm going to have to do something about that."

"Not be predictable?" Jordan grinned. 

Elunara whacked him in the head. "Was that predictable?"

"Yes." Both men answered in unison.

"Gods, you two sound like the boys. They were speaking in unison for like ten minutes straight. It's freaking me the hell out." 

"Are you enjoying the view from your perch?" Renwa raised a brow.

"Bradly just claimed Elunara as his true mother." Grogek grinned.

"Ah, she's emotional. Got it."

"I SWEAR TO ELUNE, I WILL HURT ALL THREE OF YOU!" She crossed her arms. 

Zelinnia cocked her head to the side. "This is a new look for you Grogek. Did you get a haircut?" 

Grogek ran his hand over his bald head and grinned. 

"Please tell me why Envoy Elunara is sitting on General Grogek's shoulders." Duchie sighed. 

"Elunara is grumpy." Zelinnia smiled. "She does weird things when she is." She rocked Abigail and murmured to the baby.

"There is so much hate going on right now." Elunara grumbled. 

Grogek laughed and rubbed her leg. "What's bothering you is not the issue; it's your reaction to the issue. You really shouldn't be surprised that you have a heart beating in there." 

"What's wrong with Momma?" Bradly frowned at Darguni. 

Darguni shrugged. "I don't know."

Elunara sighed. "I'm fine, you two. My brain shuts down when it has too much to process at once." She went backwards, hooking her legs over Grogek's shoulders. "Sometimes I have to do something strange in order to deal with it."

They giggled at her. 

She grabbed Bradly and hauled him up with her. Leaning back down, she grabbed Darguni. "Your dad makes a really good perch to think on." 

"You're really strong!" Bradly marveled. "How did you DO that?"

"Lots and lots of training."

"Papa Grogek said that we could start training, but we had to ask first."

"I think training is essential to survival. We'll see what we can do about a junior division." She grinned. 

"Yeay!" The boys both cried. 

"We'll have to get some practice weapons shipped in." Jordan commented. "Not something they were expecting out here."

"Can you three get off me? I have work to do."

Elunara grabbed Darguni under the armpits and lightly tossed him down. He landed on his feet with a giggle. Next she tossed Bradly down, before sliding down to the ground. 

Grogek grabbed her by the waist, spun her around and kissed her. "You're a good person. You'll just have to learn to live with it." 

"Bah, you big softie." She grinned. 

Jordan snagged her around the waist and captured her mouth with his own. "Took me years to figure out you were a big softie too."

"I am not," She smacked his arm. "You take that back right this instant." 

"Never." He whispered, before kissing her again. "I have my own work to get back to." He grinned before walking off.

"I will never get over seeing that." Duchie shook his head.

"Momma has enough love in her heart for anyone who asks for an invitation." Bradly grinned.

"That's what papa says." Darguni grinned and wrapped an arm around Bradly. "I wouldn't have a brother if she didn't."

"I wouldn't have a family if she didn't." Bradly nodded. 

"Both of you. Yoona duty."

"Right!" They said at once before running away. 

Elunara sighed. "I feel like I should be eating a bucket of chocolate."

"Hey, if there's buckets of chocolate involved, I want in." Zelinnia laughed. 

"I have other uses for chocolate." Elunara grinned. 

"Well, as long as we invite Tulani." Zelinnia sighed. 

Both Renwa and Elunara began to count off.

"AUGH!" Zelinnia roared in frustration. The baby began to cry. "Oh, shh, I'm sorry sweetie. Let's get you home."

"Speaking of Tulani, she'd be thrilled if we stopped by."

After both women had gone, Duchie turned to Renwa. "This place is a madhouse. Does it not bother you that your wife so obviously has tendencies towards Elunara and her... wife?"

"Why should it? She remains my wife, and quite frankly has an impulsive mouth, but not an impulsive body. She doesn't do anything without carefully analyzing all the angles." He chuckled. "Her brain is amazing. It's just my luck that she has a body to go with it." 

"I have read Elunara's books, and while I now have a more intense insight, I still can't understand this town, or how a common whore inspires such loyalty."

"Then you do not understand her at all. Maybe you should read them again, from the insight of an actual person, and not the dry amusement of an officer." 

"Did you just insult me?"

"No, insulting would be calling you a dumbass." Renwa smiled. "But, I'm less obvious than that."

Admiral Duchie knocked on Elunara's door with a sigh. 

She yanked it open and raised an eyebrow. "I highly doubt you're here for a full treatment."

He frowned. "No. Renwa has declared that I didn't read your books properly and instructs that I should try again."

She shrugged. "Suit yourself." 

"I have one question..."

She spread her hands out. "Go for it."

"Why do you keep all of this?"

"Habit, I suppose. I started this when I was a teenager, just experimenting with drawing and boys. After awhile, they became fond memories rather than horrible ones. The pain you experience is always momentary, even if in the moment it feels like it will never end. I like to remind myself of what I have been through. When I lose track of myself, when I get so emotional I can't think straight, I can come in here and start revisiting the things that made me who I am. There are some people who believe that I had a horrific past, that the way I act is something out of trauma. The problem with that, is during the time when most of this happened, I believed my emotions to be dead. I didn't hate, I didn't love. I only vaguely felt bad occasionally, and only when someone was really nice. 

I only realized I had friends after Grogek. He was a persistent little bugger, but he got under my skin and made me realize that I did have emotions, buried somewhere under all the hardass. He opened me up to my emotions in a way I didn't realize could happen. Suddenly, viewing everything with the shaded glass, I realized what I had missed for years. I missed Renwa being in love with me. I missed people in the SI:7 who tried SO hard to be my friend. I realized that even Varian himself had given me a tiny fragment of himself. 

When you read my books, you should be aware that I did not feel things as others did. Assassination came easy to me, because I did not value anyone's life, least of all my own. I keep these books to remind myself that I am capable of so much more.

You've come here again to find out why I inspire so much loyalty. I'm going to tell you right now, that even I don't know that one. I just do what I think is right and somehow..." She spread her hands. "I just don't know."

Duchie knocked on Renwa's door.

"Come in!" A female voice called. 

He opened the door to find Zelinnia nursing, alone.

"Where is Renwa?"

"Out doing his rounds." She readjusted her top and laid the baby on her shoulder. Spotting the book in his hand, she rolled her eyes. "Are you still on about that?"

He flushed. "Yes?"

She shook her head. "Why don't you just interview the people who claim loyalty to her?" 

"That would take the whole town."

Laying the baby in her crib, Zelinnia pulled out a fresh sheet of paper. She quickly scribbled a town map and put several Xs on it. "Here are the most loyal and the ones with a story to give you. If you wish, I will sit for an interview as well."

She handed him the paper and he stared down at it. "This is remarkable. You've memorized the town map?"

"It's not intentional, I assure you. I have what Elunara calls a photographic memory for things I see on paper. She does it in real time off of real people, places and objects. She laughs that it's why we get along so well. Her saving my head from being cleaved open by giving her body to the maniac is why I am so loyal to her. She... she doesn't like me to tell anyone this, so if you tell her, I will lie through my teeth. She wept for her husband and her baby while that lunatic raped her. I don't care HOW she wants to put it, he raped her. She thinks she's stronger than that, she thinks she gave herself willingly... but I was there. I saw her dead eyes." Zelinnia shuddered. "It killed her just a little more every time he did it. I often wonder, if I hadn't been forced in her lap, would she have just slit his throat and made a break for it?" 

In a daze, he knocked on the first door on the Blood Elf's map. He frowned at himself. She'd earned the right to be called by her name; he had no idea why his brain drifted into the prejudiced.

The door opened and a pair of bleary easy stared at him. "Admiral!" The man straightened his back and saluted. 

"Can I come in? I wish to speak with you about Elunara."

"Oh, uh, sure." He turned back. "Louis, put on some pants." He turned back and blushed. "Sorry, sir... we got... involved." He laughed nervously. "You know, we owe our entire relationship to Elunara."

He was starting to feel a little shell shocked by time he reached the pavilion. He had heard stories of heroism, of acts of selflessness and even some displays of vicious temper. She was kind and loving; she was mean as a snake. She was the ultimate double edged sword. She could be sweet and do things for no reason, or she could be an angry avenging angel. The general consensus was that no one wanted to piss her off.

He followed the sound of singing and was shocked at what he found. There was a crowd covering all the seating area, and up on stage, Elunara was singing her head off. She bounced around and danced as she sang. She pulled someone on stage and danced them around. At the end of the song, the spectator sat down with a laugh. She broke into what sounded like a battle hymn and the crowd stood and cheered. He found himself getting involved in her signing. She finished and turned to a silly little song that was obviously a crowd favorite, because they went nuts, singing with her. 

Despite himself he tapped his foot to her beat. The kids got involved and suddenly there were ten voices on stage, butchering the lyrics. She grabbed the hands of the nearest kid and bounced around her in circles still singing. How she managed to keep her breath during all of that, he had no idea. She finished the song and the kids took a bow. She laughed as she put her hand on each one in turn. When she sat down, the crowd called for encores.

She waved a hand. "In a minute you guys, I'm desperately thirsty." Someone passed her a pitcher of water and she chugged it down. 

"That was quite amazing to watch."

She looked up at the Admiral. "Give me ten minutes, and you'll get to see it some more."

"Why you do this?"

"Must you question everything I do?" She stretched out her legs and massages the muscles. "I was bored, and it's fun."

"Something tells me you do this a lot."

"It started as a way to cheer up some of the refugees. Then I did it so often, this stage was built. I try to head over once a month." 

"Elunara?"

"Yeah, hon?" She looked over at the male Draenei. 

"Can I request a song? It was my wife's favorite."

"Can do." She saluted. She looked at the Admiral. "Guess I'm up sooner than I wanted." She climbed back on the stage 

The song was slow, sweet and sad. He found himself incredibly moved by the effort she put into doing the song correctly. 

"Oh, how I miss my wife." The man said. "Elunara always sings it so beautifully." He smiled sadly at the Admiral. "She hadn't sung it yet, so I felt compelled to ask. When she sings it, it takes the pain away, if just for that little bit." He turned and walked into the crowd. 

Elunara sighed and closed the door behind her. It had taken her much longer than anticipated to finish the portrait. She jogged halfway there, but stopped when a sound caught her attention.

"Come on, sweetheart. I've seen how you look at me." The beefcake tugged on Terica's arm. "You're such a dainty little thing; I bet I can show you how it works." He grinned at her.

"Look, I'm just not interested." Terica yanked her hand back, but the guy was too strong. She shoved at his chest. "Let go of me."

"Oh, I know you're interested, I see the way you stare at me." He cupped her ass. "It's enough to drive a man mad." 

"You're not getting it. I am NOT interested."

Elunara stared at step forward, but she paused

"Let her go!" Lucy growled. "Get your hand off of her you asshole!"

"Ugh, Lucy, go play with your sword. Your sister and I are having a conversation that does not involve you."

"You will get your hands off of her, you creep!" Lucy punched him in the face. 

He rubbed his jaw and growled. He grabbed her by the jaw and Elunara heard the crunch. Terica began panicking and struggling, but the guy let go of her wrist long enough to backhand her into the wall. 

Elunara sat the portrait down against the wall and stepped out. "HEY, ASSHOLE!"

"What do you want, bitch?"

"Oh goody, someone who didn't call me a whore." She was over to him in an instant and jabbed her fist under his arm. He dropped Lucy to the ground and roared in pain. She cracked him in the face with the back of her hand and then shot her hands down his pants and grabbed him by the hairs and yanked. She ripped out a good handful of hair and then punched him in the face again. As he reeled back she grabbed him by the crotch and twisted until he turned sheet white. 

"Are you listening asshole? Nobody wants your shit here. Now, get lost before I show you why they call me the ballbuster."

"You... bitch..." He whimpered. 

"Come on, keep fighting, give me a reason to feed you to the shit outside the barrier." 

He dropped off backwards. She released him and let him fall. 

"Pussy bitch." She stooped down and put a hand on Lucy's jaw. "Here, this should ease the pain." She focused her energy on the hairline fracture. Moving on, she inspected Terica's head. "Oh, that's a nasty bump." She sighed as she gave her energy to the unconscious woman.

"I couldn't protect her." Lucy whimpered as she pulled Terica into her lap.

"Hey, it's ok. I'll have that asshole dumped outside the barrier. We don't like his kind here." Elunara brushed her fingers on Lucy's jaw again. "We need to get you to the actual healer. You can't even call what I do healing." 

"But..."

Elunara scooped Terica up into her arms. "Come on, you can do me a favor and pick of the picture leaning by the building over there." She pointed. 

Lucy picked it up and wrapped her arms around it. "I couldn't protect her. If anything had happened..."

"It didn't. How's about I teach you both some of my style of fighting. It's not effective in a major battle, but it'll keep the pervs away." 

Lucy sniffed. "Thank you."

"Stop talking 'til Ina gets a hold of you. She'll kill me if I make you worse." 

Admiral Duchie watched in amazement as Elunara walked away, casually running her mouth as if nothing interesting had happened. He looked down at the unconscious man and decided that he'd see to the removal of the asshole himself.

He walked into Renwa's office and sat down. "I think I'm finally starting to understand that woman."

Zelinnia snorted as she sorted papers. "It's about time." 

"Zelinnia..." Renwa sighed.

She blushed and ducked. "Why do things never stay in my head?" She grumbled. 

"Well, no, I guess I have to agree with you." He sighed. "I've been doing what you said and interviewing everyone and the things I have learned from all sides..." He shook his head. "She is capable of great temper, but also filled with such compassion. I saw a man consumed by grief, eased by her singing him a song. I saw her leap to defend a helpless woman, and then brush it off as nothing. I have heard of her heroism, her no bullshit policies, and her nasty temper. They fear her as much as they respect her. They downright love her and each person had a different reason as to why.

She has built families, connected lovers and destroyed relationships. I visited the blacksmith and found this magnificent portrait of him in the nude. He was mortally embarrassed, but his wife was endlessly proud of it."

Zelinnia raised an eyebrow. "I need a good enough excuse to pay her a visit." 

"I saw an endless stream of wall portraits done by her. The work is amazingly detailed." He shook his head. "I even stopped by Ina's and looked through her books. Renwa, old friend, what have you gotten yourself into?"

Renwa grinned. "The best sort of situation. You might as well swear your loyalty now; it's only going to get worse."

"Hah. You're really funny, old friend. But I think I understand now, what makes your town so successful. You have a unifying person. Someone that draws them in and keeps the loyals. You weed out the useless and the insane, and you keep those who would bolster the town, do whatever it takes to succeed. I am quite impressed." 

"You'd be more impressed if you'd let her do what she does best." Zelinnia mumbled. 

Renwa did a silent count. 

Zelinnia turned bright red and smacked her forehead on her desk.

"I take it she does that a lot."

"I hope she never loses it." Renwa grinned. 

"I'd deny you sex, but that wouldn't work out in my favor." She grumbled. She flipped through a few more pages before tossing them up in the air. "GAH!"



For the Whored Ch. 085



Elunara sat under the tree, drawing the training below. It was one of her favorite times of day. She hummed a jaunty tune as she worked. The crunch in the grass behind her was unfamiliar, but she flexed her hand and readied her dagger just in case. It was always easier to defeat an opponent that felt they had the upper hand. 

"So, this is what my goddess does to relax."

Elunara looked up and eyed the large orc, her grip tightened on her dagger. "Hello Charnak. I assume you've returned with my army?"

He got down on one knee and bowed his head. "My Goddess, I have done as you bid. Outside these barriers lays an army of Warsong orcs, five hundred strong who have claimed loyalty to the Goddess."

Grogek's eyes widened at the presence of Charnak. His wife was obviously handling herself, but he was prepared to strike at any time. 

She put a hand on his shoulder. "I must see this army for myself. Then you will have proven your worth to me."

He took her hand and kissed the back of it. "Let me show you."

She closed up her board and sat it by the tree, sending subtle signals down below. She dare not check to see if he saw her. 

Charnak took her by the hand and led her down through the orchard and towards the barrier. 

"Should we go after them?" Jordan swallowed nervously. 

"No. She says to stand by, she'll let us know." 

He led her through the barrier and she stared at the men, women and wolves lining the hills in front of her. She did a quick scan and believed five hundred was on the money. 

"BROTHERS AND SISTERS!" He held up his arms as he yelled. "I HAVE BROUGHT YOU THE GODDESS OF WAR AND MERCY!" 

The crowd roared in appreciation. 

Her face betrayed no emotion. "This is your army?" She considered them. She walked up to a random warrior and ran her fingers on his muscled arm. She turned back to Charnak. "This pleases me." He preened under her praise. "But are they really so loyal?"

"We would like a demonstration of this Goddess." Someone commented. 

Charnak growled, but she held out a hand. "This is acceptable. Bring me your five best warriors, and a place to fight." 

They hastily scrambled together a ring and five warriors stood in the center. She inspected each one in turn. "They please me." She stood in the center, flexing her hand. "Come at me."

It took nearly twenty minutes, but as she progressed, the waves of appreciation began to pour off the crowd. "MORE!" She cried. "GIVE ME MORE!" Still holding her dagger in her hand, she took down another twenty. She was feeding off of their frenzy, giving her more strength and endurance. "MORE" She felt them come this time, the golden wings of her excess power. "CAN ANY OF YOU BRING ME DOWN?" She roared. She hit seventy five disabled combatants lying on the outer ring by time they started to shrink back in fear of her power. 

"MY GODDESS YOU HAVE RETURNED TO ME!" Charnak cried as he leapt into the ring. 

She fought him like an angry demon, faster and meaner than she had the others. She had him on the ropes, but she backed down. She did it gradually so that he would feel superior, without alerting him to the trick. When he sliced down into her shoulder, she took the blow and went to her knees. 

"YOU, Charnak have proven yourself worthy of me!" She yanked the axe out of her shoulder and flung it at him. He caught it, just barely, in surprise. "Your army has proven satisfactory to my tastes as well. Make your camp outside of my town. I shall bring Charnak to my followers and make him one of my own." She flexed her arms and dismissed the haze. 

"She IS a Goddess, just as he said." Some murmured.

"She is a ferocious wolf." Said others. 

She ran her fingers under his chin. "Come; join your brother as one of my champions." 

He knelt before her and put his fist to his chest. "Yes, my Goddess."

She wrapped her arm around his and led him into the barrier. They entered near the training yard and she strolled past as if this was an everyday occurrence. Grogek and Jordan met her shortly after.

"Elunara? Is everything alright?" Jordan asked. 

She waved her hand. "Yes, yes. Charnak has done as I bid him to do. He has brought me an army of Warsong Orcs to command as I will." She gave him a fond gaze. "Wasn't that good of him?"

Grogek's eyes went wide. "How many."

"Five hundred of the strongest men and women I could find for the Goddess." Charnak declared.

"I have tested their mettle, and they please me. I told him that I shall show him his place as my champion. Come my best Champions, let us show the others this great leader." She led him to the platform of the training yard. She released him and walked forward. "Everyone! This is Charnak! He has fulfilled the task I set of him and brought me an ARMY of five hundred Orcs to command as I see fit! He will be in charge of this army and will train them as I deem acceptable. You should know that he is under MY command." 

He knelt before her, fist on the ground, fist on his chest. When she touched his shoulder he stood up. "I BOW BEFORE THE GODDESS AND NONE OTHER!"

She made a face at Grogek that made him grin. 

"Come. I wish to make your presence known to those who follow my command and command the others. I cannot be everywhere. Though I try." She led the way, taking Grogek's hand to step down. "If you wish to please me, Grogek is first to me, and Jordan is second. This is important. Come, I shall lead you to my third." She led the way through town. 

"Momma? Who is that?" 

She smiled. "Charnak, these are my children, Darguni and Bradly. If you are less than kind to them, I will slit your throat and find a new champion to lead my army. Do you understand?"

He put his fist to his chest. "Yes, My Goddess. A mother's anger is quick and merciless."

She moved on. 

Bradly leaned over to Darguni. "He calls momma a goddess."

"That's seriously cool." 

Savage walked along beside her. She gave him an absent scratch. 

"That is yours?" 

"His name is Savage and he is my companion." 

"You've tamed one." His mouth hung open. 

"And he will not hesitate to rip you apart if he is unhappy with your attitude towards me." Savage gave a low growl, as if understanding her words. 

"You have many powers my Goddess." 

"And I will not allow you to forget them." She smiled at him. "You have pleased me much this day." She knocked on the door to Renwa's office. "Continue to please me, and see where it gets you." 

"Enter!"

Elunara pushed the door open and grinned at Renwa. He stared in complete shock for a moment before he composed himself, remembering his part in the mess.

"Ah, Elunara, I see Charnak has returned. Does that mean he fulfilled his promise?"

"He has brought me an army, five hundred strong. I have seen them, I have tested them. They are to my liking. Charnak has pleased me."

"Very well, but where do you expect me to house them?"

She waved her hand. "Sweetheart, I've already thought of this. They are making camp outside the barrier near the training yard. If they're worth their salt, they'll be able to sustain themselves without harming your little town."

Charnak flexed his muscles.

She turned back to him. "You should know, he is my number three. Should I not be around, you should always follow his order." She put her hand on her hip. "You obey all rules, follow all of my signs, and you'll go far here. Should I send someone else with an order, they will have my seal. I'll give you an example of it later. After that, you may do as you please outside my barrier."

"Yes, my Goddess." He bowed. 

"You may return to your camp and see to my soldiers." She laid a hand on his chest. "I will come out to visit you soon." She breathed. 

"Yes, my goddess."

"And mind you don't bother anyone on the way. I want to keep some semblance of peace around here."

She leaned by the window and watched him walk away. 

"You play a dangerous game, Elunara." Renwa shook his head.

"How the HELL was I supposed to know he'd find FIVE HUNDRED lunatics to champion his goddess?" She ran her hands through her hair. "I figured he'd get twenty tops. Twenty I could work with, but FIVE HUNDRED? Holy fuck balls!"

"You may have over played your hand." Zelinnia shook her head. 

"I under estimated his charisma more like." 

"I am so confused." Admiral Duchie shook his head. 

"Did you actually READ my books, or did you use them for porno?" Elunara sighed. "Charnak attacked the town, and when he killed Grogek, I went into a berserker rage and killed about thirty or forty of his men with my dagger."

"Some of them she managed to decapitate in her rage."

"I disabled Charnak, because I was going to torture him to death, and then I killed another 10 or 15..."

"Twenty three." Renwa shrugged. 

"Anyhow, Grogek's death unlocked something inside of me that manifested as these big ass glowing wings and shit and according to on lookers, I rose into the air with Grogek, screamed to the heavens and demanded Grogek back. I kinda don't remember any of this. Long story short, everyone who was there calls me goddess. Most don't to my face. Anyway, Charnak went zealot and swore fealty to me. I released him on the pretense that he go and bring me back an army. I figured he'd get himself killed trying to recruit people to follow outsiders. If anything, my goal was to have another trainer. The idea is to get him to help us train our men. Instead, I got a nutbar who brought me five hundred followers."

"Are you certain he has five hundred?" Renwa frowned.

"I saw them. They demanded an example. I fought seventy five of them into the ground before they started getting terrified, and then I "let" Charnak beat me so that he could save face as the most powerful among them." 

"Was that wise?" Duchie stared at her

She sighed. "An Army of five hundred shows up at the doorstep to our town and I have to do a show of power. They lose belief in me and they stomp the town to dust."

"Figure out our options. We're going to have to make the best of this."

"Hey, it's me." She grinned. "Though I wonder if there's a way to get some of them killed. Reduce it to a more manageable number..." She tapped her chin.

"You would kill men and women who have sworn an oath to you?"

"I repeat, did you READ my books? Or just grab them for the pictures?" She shook her head. "I will do anything to protect this town, no matter how insane or cruel you think I might be." She turned and opened the door. "I'll figure it out. Just you wait."

She might not BE a goddess, but it was certainly worth being treated like one. Grogek was massaging her shoulders and Jordan was massaging her legs. 

"I ripped myself apart trying to prove a point." She whimpered. 

"I left a couple of men on the edge of the barrier, just to be sure." Jordan worked on her feet and she just groaned.

"Far be it for me to question your judgment, but are you sure this is wise?" Grogek frowned. 

"Don't really have a choice at the moment. I've bought myself some time to figure it out, but I can't play the game forever."

"Yeah, but are you going to do anything with him sexually?" Jordan frowned. "Seeing as he DID kill your husband."

"If it comes to it, I might have to, just to keep up the ruse. He's not a good person. That much is certain, but this zealotry could go very bad, very fast. On the one hand, I could give into him, and it causes him to lose respect for me, or I could refuse him, and it trigger his anger because he was expecting it. I'm at a loss there. I'll have to feel it out." She laid her head on Grogek's chest. "But I couldn't possibly have genuine affection for the man who almost took away my happiness." She sighed. "No offense, Jordan."

"No, I'm pretty sure that Grogek dying would have taken away all of our happiness. Tulani is right; it would be difficult to rebuild that." 

Elunara prepped her board and a small satchel of paper. She had waited a few days, refusing to reschedule her life for Charnak. Grogek reported that Charnak had come into town and just stood there watching the training yard. He had ignored the other Orc as she had instructed. She made her way down and waved at Grogek as she continued out to the encampment. 

She stopped and looked around, impressed by their progress. 

"My Goddess!" Charnak jogged over. "You've come to see me!"

"I've come to inspect the troops, and document them." She held up her board. "All men under my command must have their picture done, so that on their deaths, I may properly honor them."

"You and wise and noble." He nodded his head. "Please, follow me and I will show them to you." 

As they walked, she began to sketch and work from the board she had secured via leather straps. She worked at break neck speed, sacrificing detail for distance. She looked up and raised an eyebrow at their banner, which had been a recreation of the picture she had slipped into his pocket. 

"I thought you'd like it." He grinned. 

"This pleases me." They passed an Orc holding an axe similar to Grogek's. She held out her hand. 

The Orc looked in confusion between both Elunara and Charnak. 

"Your axe." Charnak said.

Looking skeptical, he dropped the axe in her hand. She swung it up and inspected the blade before twirling it and checking the other side. She examined the handle and nodded. "Good shape, few nicks, but that's just character." She handed the axe back to the astonished Orc and started sketching again. 

Charnak gave him a grin of superiority. 

"Yes, I'm very pleased with your progress. I will spend some time learning what you have brought me. I intend to have many sheets prepared before I send you into your first battle. I have much planned for you." She smiled up at him. "Yes, I am very pleased."

He put his fist to his chest. "We are ready now, we await your order."

"Just because YOU are ready, doesn't mean I am. I wish to have all of your troops on my pages before I send them out. This is how I am able to honor the spirits and call on them in battle. I have honored them before their deaths and after their deaths. The spirits think highly of me. I am able to control the endless light and feed off the energy of the nether. This is my little secret." She winked up at him. 

"You are telling me..." His eyes grew wide. "You honor me with your secret." He put his hands on either side of her shoulders. "Please." He whispered. "Come to my tent and let me worship you."

She ran her fingers under his chin. "When I give you my orders, you will follow them as I say. Only when I am the most pleased, that we will have this discussion again."

He stepped back and knelt to her. "Your will is my desire."

She brushed back his hair with the lightest brush of her fingers. "Good." She turned and kept walking. 

Over the next few weeks, she visited the orc camp about twice a week, spending time have the orcs paraded around her as she drew them and worked. When she was satisfied that she had every last one of them documented, she strolled outside without her board. 

Charnak jogged over and knelt in front of her. "My Goddess, you do not bring your sketches."

She brushed his hair away from his face. "My champion, I have come with your orders."

He stood up and stepped forward, his breath hitching in anticipation. "Your will be done."

"To the north is an Iron Horde encampment. Their presence offends me. Be rid of them."

"Of course my Goddess."

She laid a hand on his chest. "Bring me treasures of the dead. Theirs or your own, separate them please. The more spirits that swear to me, the better. But, don't be stupid." She patted his cheek and then turned around, going back to town. 

She was sitting under the tree, humming to herself when she heard the footsteps. She sat her board to the side. "I hope you bring me good news?"

He stood there holding his bleeding arm and he grinned. "We slew every last one of them. I have come to tell you it was a success." 

She stood up and put a hand to his arm and concentrated her energy on the cut. It healed under her attentions. "Return to your camp, reorganize your troops, and have my presents prepared with a large bon fire."

He bowed. "Your will be done." He turned and left.

It was night before she went out to him, carrying the books she had bound with his troops in them. 

He was standing there by the bonfire; hand over the healed cut in his arm. He was staring into the fire and she was curious to know what he was thinking. She held her head high and took long purposeful strides. 

"My goddess!" He beamed at her. "I had hoped you would come soon. I have brought you a gift."

He held out a hunk of hair in a braid. "It is from the enemies we have slain. I have done as you asked and separated the remains of our dead from theirs." He gestured behind him. 

She circled the two piles of various objects. She stooped down and pulled out a few random objects, tucking them in her bag. She pulled out her books and began searching for the distinct objects in her drawings. As she worked, she would pull a random object; seemingly say a prayer over it, before chucking it into the fire. She sincerely hoped she looked mystical. 

"How many of mine died?"

"Thirty five, my goddess."

She nodded and continued her work. When at last the piles were gone, she closed her books and approached him. He held out the braid and she ran it through her fingers and examined the hairs before sniffing it and tossing it in the fire."

"But!" He reached out towards the flame. 

"The ritual is complete." She nodded. "You bring me fine tributes and I am most pleased. I have released the spirits from their objects. You have done a superior job." She smiled as she ran her fingers under his chin. "The spirits smile on your efforts."

He put his hand on her arm. "Please." His voice was hoarse. "Please, let me worship you."

She cocked her head to the side, considering. Finally, she nodded. "Very well, I am in a good mood." 

He took her arm and wrapped it around his own, his hand over hers. He led the way to his tent an opened the flap for her. She looked around the room, and saw the pictures she had given him, hanging up. He leaned his face into hers.

She put her fingers on his lips. "You cannot kiss me, you haven't earned the right." 

He placed his forehead on hers. "You confuse me."

"My body is a vessel, and I feed off of the attention my body receives. Kissing me is an intimate act that you have not earned the right to do."

He ran his thumb over her lips. "Then I will earn the right; just tell me what I should do."

With a shrug, when put a hand on his chest. "That is for another day. For now, I believe you had other intentions."

He guided her back to what she would laughingly call a throne. "I made this for you." He whispered as he tugged her shirt over her head. He kissed her shoulder and ran his hands across her breasts. His hands went down and pulled off her pants. She spread her legs out and leaned back against the soft furs. He made his way down her body and knelt at her feet. Laying his tongue flat, he licked the center of her. 

Her hands came down on both sides of his face as she gave a small gasp. Her fingers went back and through his hair as he worked. "Gods, the fangs." She muttered. "The fangs drive me crazy." She whispered. 

With a grin he shifted his mouth and tickled the inside of her legs with his fangs. He was pleased with her reactions. He licked those inner folds and felt like he was drinking liquid gold. He slid a finger in and felt the inside of her with a groan. His other hand he used to tug at his pants. 

She smacked him. "You have yet to earn the right to enter me. Perhaps another time." She laid her head back and arched against him. 

With some disappointment, he flopped his dick out of his pants and used the slickness off of his fingers on himself. He pumped his fingers in and out of her, before wrapping that hand around his dick and stroking himself. His tongue slipped in and out of her, drinking up her pouring juices. Back and forth his hand went, from her glorious wetness, to across his dick. When she grabbed at his hair in her arching orgasm, he ran his fingers across those soft folds, getting every ounce of wetness to use on himself. Shoving two fingers in to catch her as she clamped and bucked, he was able to finish on to the floor. 




For the Whored Ch. 085



"My goddess is always so beautiful." He breathed

She licked her lips. "Mm, that was quite delicious. Perhaps..." She brushed her fingers on his cheek. 

"Perhaps what, my goddess?" 

She shook her head and sighed, running her hands down the sides of his face. "No, I shall not get your hopes up. I have much to consider. You have pleased me greatly this night."

He wrapped his arms around her waist and laid his head on her belly. "Your pleasure is my greatest reward."

She grinned at the top of his head. Oh, yeah. He was gone. "I shall be back."

He put his hands on her thighs. "No, please don't. Stay with me tonight."

She glared at him. "Do not presume too much. You have done well this night, but there is still much for you to prove."

"Do they all go through this?" He pouted.

"None so extreme, but you did kill my husband." She leaned forward, and wrapping her hand around his neck, she squeezed, her nails biting into the skin. "Be glad that I was able to revive him, or I would have tortured you until you begged for mercy and when you thought death would come, I would heal your wounds and start over until you were a broken husk of uselessness, and only THEN would I have considered granting you MERCY. It is by my will alone that you even stand. So, until I feel that you have made up for your lack in judgment, you will continue to endure my tests. Is that clear?" She growled as she released him.

He had scooted against the wall, his eyes huge. "Yes my goddess, forgive my ignorance." 

She stood up and took the couple of steps forward before she knelt in front of him. Reaching out, she ran her fingers under his chin. "Continue to please me, and you can take your rightful place among my Champions. Anger me, and I'll be rid of you AND the army you have brought me."

"Why is it..." He whispered. "That when you are so angry," He swallowed. "I feel so aroused?"

She grinned. "Then you are well on your way to being one of mine." She stood up and got her clothes on and picked up her bag of books. "When I return, I will give you your next assignment."

"Yes my goddess." He bowed.

She got home and tossed her books on the table. Looking up, both Grogek and Jordan were leaning on the banister.

"Well?" Asked Jordan. 

"How was it?" Asked Grogek.

"He's my slave." She grinned. "Now, if you two don't mind, I'd like someone with at a least SOME skill tonight." She made her way upstairs. "I feel like I had an appetizer and am having to wait ENTIRELY too long for the main course."

"Guess we'll just have to make it a combo meal." Jordan grinned. 

"Then service me, my Champions." She grinned.



For the Whored Ch. 086



Elunara stretched and sighed as she made her way down to the training yard. Last night was fun, but she might have twisted her hip out just a tad too much. It was always difficult to keep one's body shape when a pair of men were trying to shove their fingers in your crotch as the same time. She may have had the most delicious pair of husbands, but they did get a little over exuberant from time to time. She stopped and stared off into the distance. She called Jordan her husband. Yeah, it was mental, but that's where all the secrets hid out. 

She was pleased to find both of them standing on the edge of the training ring, in a heated discussion about some of the newer recruits. She stood there for a moment, just watching them. 

Grogek noticed her first. "What? What's wrong?"

Jordan spun around and frowned. "What's the matter?"

"Nothing actually." She strolled forward. "I was just thinking to myself that I had the most delicious pair of husbands on or off planet." She kissed Jordan first, since he was closer and then she kissed Grogek.

"Husbands?" Jordan squeaked. "Plural?"

"Well, that's what happens when I have two of them." She grinned. As predicted, it broke Jordan's brain more than it did hers. Grogek just grinned. "Unless you don't want to be." She gave a dramatic sigh. 

"No. No, I'm ok with that one." He just continued to blink into space and stare like he got smacked with a hammer. 

Grogek snorted a laugh. "You know, it took you longer than I thought it would to come to that decision." 

She shrugged. "It is what it is." 

"Uhhh, do I have to stand through a ceremony or something?" He winced.

"Gods, no. I'll have Tippy biting at my heels, screaming "I told you so." I just can't handle that kind of grief. A declaration is a declaration. I'm happy enough with that."

He let go of the breath he was holding. "Oh, thank the Gods." 

She wrapped her arms around his torso and kissed him soundly.

He ran his hands down her back and across her ass. "So I guess this means I get to call you my wife?"

"Funny how that works." She grinned.

"Yeah, I'm definitely ok with that."

"You two are making me nauseous." Grogek grunted.

"Hah!" She laughed. "We're probably making you horny." 

"Some days, I'm not sure there's a difference." He grinned. 

She stepped over to him, and grabbing him by the fang, pulled her face to his.

"Hey, Baby, we have a visitor."

Elunara looked back and saw Charnak at the end of the training yard, just standing and watching. "Wonder how long he's been there." 

"Don't know, I just looked over, but he might have been standing there for awhile."

"Eh. He hasn't seen anything I wouldn't have already done in front of him." 

Charnak started forward and walked past the training soldiers. Many jump out of his way, or scrambled around him. He ignored every one of them, heading for the trio on the edge of the yard. 

Elunara straightened up, gave him a cool look and crossed her arms. 

He stopped in front of them, got to one knee and put his fist to his chest. "I, Charnak of the Warsong clan have come to declare my loyalty to my Goddess of War and Mercy, Elunara. I swear absolute loyalty to her. I have also come to give my humblest apologies to my brother Grogek for my misplaced judgment and attempt on his life. I swear my loyalty to him as Elunara's mate, and beg of his forgiveness. I realize now that you far superior to me, having earned the loyalty and love of this woman who is a goddess to me." He bowed.

He lowered his voice. "Whatever you have done to deserve her, I will never be able to match. However, I beg of her to reconsider her anger towards me, for I knew not the truth when I committed my heinous crimes. I realize now that I will never be your one or your two, but I request that perhaps I can be your humble pet." He took her hand and laid his forehead against it. "I am your to command, my great and beautiful goddess."

"Rise, Charnak, your words impress me." When he stood up, she ran her fingertips under his chin. "I will give your words the consideration they deserve."

Charnak bowed to Grogek. "Please, forgive me brother. I understand now, that had I faced you in one on one, you would have been superior. My tactics for dealing with you were cowardly." 

"Hmm."

"Charnak," Elunara put a hand on his arm. "If you are doing this just to gain my favor, I will be supremely pissed." She dug her fingernails into his arm.

He winced. "No, my goddess. Your words to me last night sang true. Your heart was won by this man, and now I must make headway to even get in the same waters as he. I... I laid awake all night thinking and thinking. I can only assume that he has done something miraculous to obtain your affections. Even this little human is more worthy than I, and I am one of the strongest of our kind."

She released the pressure on his arm. "Very well. I have another task of you while I consider your words."

"Yes, my Goddess, anything."

"Near the entrance to Gorgrond, there is a Genesaur blocking trade routes. He is not hard to recognize, for he only has one eye. I am the one who took his other eye when he tried to eat one of my children. I would have felled the beast myself. But, I was burdened by my child. Bring it down, and bring me its skull. If the skull proves to be too burdensome, take a tusk. That bastard angered me when he tried to eat my child. Bring it down and earn more of my favor."

"Yes, my goddess." He lifted her hand to his mouth. "Your will be done." He turned and left. 

"Elunara..."

"Yeeess?"

"The fuck have you done?" Jordan gestured towards Charnak's retreating form.

"I have NO idea." She shook her head. "I wasn't sure if I was supposed to laugh, cry, or get a migraine from rolling my eyes in my head."

"He had to eat a fair bit of pride to do all of that just now." Grogek frowned. "Even I am often amazed by the effect you have on people, my love."

"I thought he was going to wet himself when you said you took on a genesaur one handed." Jordan snorted.

"Technically, Bradly was tied to my back, so I had both hands free."

Speaking of, she got tackled by the two boys. "Did that Orc just swear to you?" Darguni asked. 

"Yeah, he thinks I'm a goddess, don't try to dissuade him."

"Nuh uh, our momma is a goddess!" Bradly bounced. 

"We have the coolest Momma ever!" Darguni chimed in.

"Yeah, so now I have an army of Orcs at my disposal, their leader thinks I'm a goddess, and I proved it by beating up seventy five of their best warriors at once." Elunara scrubbed her hands on both boys hair. "Oh, and I've declared Jordan as my second husband, just so we're all clear."

"Does that mean he's our papa too?" 

"Eh, he's whatever he'd rather you call him."

"Well, I like Papa Jordan better than Uncle Jordan." Bradly declared. 

"Yeah! Papa is my papa, but Jordan can be my other Papa, like Momma Tuly is my other Momma."

"Yeah! Let's go tell everybody!"

"Yeah!" The two boys took off running. 

Jordan just sat on the ground and looked shell shocked.

"Oops." Elunara grinned.

He held up a finger. "You did that on purpose!"

"I will freely admit that I had no idea they'd latch on to the papa thing so fast." She giggled. "But I did want someone else's brain to be broken for once." She knelt down and kissed him on the cheek. "It is a little funny that we're a house of two women and two men and you're all married to me." She giggled again. 

He tugged her into his lap. "You know I'm going to get you for that..."

"Can you three EVER stop?" Renwa sighed. 

"I just declared Jordan as my second husband." She grinned.

"Oh, well, carry on then." He glared at them. "In your own bedroom. Or bedrooms, or however the hell you have it laid out."

"You missed the fun, Renwa." Elunara grinned. "Charnak came and apologized to Grogek and declared himself loyal to my ranking."

"Good GODS woman, how the hell do you keep doing that?"

"Beats me, but it sure is fun." She grinned. 

"Probably has to do with how she can make a man rock hard by just yelling at him." 

"Why Gerald, I didn't know you cared." She batted her eyelashes as she stood up. 

Jordan brushed himself off. "He's not wrong." 

Grogek burst into laughter and Elunara grinned at him. 

"What?" Jordan and Renwa asked at the same time. 

Elunara smiled sweetly. "You'll just tell me to keep it in the bedroom again." 

"I'm starting to see why you call her a migraine waiting to happen." Duchie added mildly.

"Come on, Admirals, let's go see my Orc army before they leave on their next mission." She led the way to the barrier and stepped through, putting her hands on her hips. Both men gasped at the scene before them. 

Charnak was standing at the head, directing the army into their positions for deployment. He spotted her and yelled out a few more orders before heading over to her. "My Goddess, I did not expect to see you before we left."

She ran her fingers down his arm. "I have already shown you Renwa, this is his... trainee, Duchie."

"Yes?"

"Unimportant to you at the moment, I just wanted to show them a demonstration of your usefulness."

"My Goddess, may I ask a question?"

"Go ahead."

"Are these... yours?"

"Oh, goodness no. But they are important to the running of the town, and I just wanted them known to you. Also, should any misfortune befall Renwa, I will personally gut someone like a fish." She growled. 

"Understood. We head out in about fifteen minutes. Did you wish to inspect the troops?"

She brushed back some of his hair. "I believe you have it handled." She smiled.

He preened under her gaze. 

"I'll leave you to it." 

He kissed her hand. "I will bring you pleasure." He purred, before stalking away to scream at his troops.

"Lu, you blow my goddamned mind." Renwa shook his head. 

"Isn't it fabulous?" She purred. "My own Orc army." 

"Did you have sex with him too?" Duchie wrinkled his nose.

"Lord no. That would actually cause him to lose respect for me. I can't be seen as easy. I'm the benevolent goddess, with a will of iron and the temper of demons. I fight like a right bitch and gain energy from the battle. To give myself to him would make me... paltry and common. No, he has to earn my affections."

"One of the things that made her highly desirable as an SI:7 operative was her ability to assess a situation and know exactly how to play a target." Renwa nodded. 

"Eh, I've had a few mistakes. Like Grommash, he just didn't work." She shrugged. 

"He broke every bone in your body." Renwa commented.

"Grogek saved me, that's all that matters." She grinned. 

"What task are you sending them out on this time?"

"To kill a genesaur." She shrugged. "The one that's terrorizing the trade routes, the one whose eye I gouged out that night..."

"Ah, that beast." Renwa nodded. "Good choice."

"Next, I'll send them after the demons of Shattarath." 

"Nasty." 

"We'll see how many we have left after that." 

She had found a secluded spot near the barrier, and lay out in the sun, completely naked. She didn't do it often, as she preferred company when he stripped down. However, it was beautifully sunny and she felt like Savage looked; a cat lain out in a sunny spot. He followed her everywhere, and some days she wondered why. She reached over and scratched his massive head. He wallowed against her and she laughed as she scratched his big furry belly. 

"What a beautiful sight to greet me when I return."

She looked down and saw Charnak staring down at her, lust in his eyes. He licked his lips. 

She stood up and walked over to him, laying her hands on his injuries. "I see you have returned in one piece, where is my prize?"

"Please let me touch you." He said in a pained whisper. 

"A caress or two isn't out of the question." She pressed against him. 

He wrapped his arms around her and buried his face in her neck. "Gods, I want to slip inside of you, feel you as I drive you up and over." His hands shuddered down her ass. 

She ran her hands down his chest. "First, let's see what you've brought me." She pushed away from him and bent down to retrieve her clothes. 

When she straightened up, his hands came around her again. "I will earn you, one way or another." His erection pressed against her ass as he kissed her shoulder. "My beautiful goddess."

She lifted her hand back and brushed it down his cheek. "Earn it you shall, but for now..." She stepped out of his range and put her clothes on. "You were supposed to bring me a present." She stepped beside him and took his arm. 

He led the way outside the barrier. The skull was bigger than she's realized. Parts of its skin and flesh were still attached the behemoth skull. 

"Have it cleaned and painted to look how it did before it died. I wish to place my trophy somewhere appropriate." She looked up at him and smiled. "This pleases me greatly. It has been to great annoyance that I have not had time to deal with it myself. I have entirely too much to do. Take your men and heal them up. I shall return soon." She trailed her fingers on his shoulder, before turning and walking back in the barrier. 

Elunara walked down to Grogek. "Uh, where am I going to put a genesaur skull?"

"He did it?"

"Uh, yeah. They're cleaning and painting the skull per my directions."

He shook his head. "Impressive." 

"I have the distinct impression that he's gone past hero worship and slipped straight into love." She groaned. 

Grogek laughed and patted her shoulder. "That would be your problem."

"But, he killed you." She pouted. 

"He also went against his design to apologize and call me superior."

"Ugh, you're so easily impressed." 

"Actually, I'm not. If it was any other person in the world, I would have heard falsehoods. But, he is my brother and I grew up with a man who wanted to prove he was bigger, meaner and more powerful than I. When I was chosen as Grommash's second over him, he went ballistic. In the end, it appears as though he took over the clan, but finding me, after all these years? Revenge for his slights. I would have agreed that you should drop this farce and slit his throat." He shrugged. "But you did something to him. I'd give anything to figure out exactly what. To see him bow to me, and say what he said? Completely fascinating. If it were an act, there would have been more aggression in his features. He was never good at hiding his anger."

"GAH!" She banged her head on his arm. "The hell am I supposed to do with this?"

"You always figure it out, my love." He wrapped his arm around her waist. "In the end, it is you that needs to figure it out."

She made her way through the barrier, Savage at her side. Charnak met her at the entrance.

"My goddess, the skull is almost ready for you!" He gestured. 

She ran her hand on a tusk. "Very nice."

One of the orc stepped forward. "We made the kill, why does she claim the prize?" 

"You question our Goddess?" Charnak growled.

She put her hand on his shoulder. "I think a challenge would satisfy everyone's thirst." She grinned. She flexed her hand and held her dagger. "I will take on all challengers in the ring." She strolled down to the ring and stood in the middle. "YOU DOUBT ME? BRING ME DOWN!"

All of those years spent fighting Grogek and other idiots in the ring were really paying off. She brought down a little over 60 combatants, and she managed to kill seven of them. She had figured out some time ago how to get the glow to come off of her, and with each new combatant, her energy grew. She stood in the center ring, angel wings dwarfing her body. "YOUR ENERGY FEEDS ME! BRING ME MORE OR BOW THE FUCK DOWN!" She mimicked the flag they had made. 

All at once, every last Orc dropped to their knee and bowed their head. 

"You have pleased me with this battle. Your show of strength is admirable." She dismissed her wings. "I am proud to have this army under my command. Tend to your wounded, while I honor your dead." 

She bent down and picked up the first body and carried it over to lay it by the bonfire. She got all of them laid out and began to systematically check them off in her books and add more detail. Charnak brought her belongings from the ones that died to the genesaur. 

"How many?"

"Only twelve this time." 

"Good, much better than last time." She went through the same ritual as before. 

"Forgive them for doubting."

"I was expecting it." She added more detail to her pages. 

"I don't know what to say."

She shrugged and snapped her book closed. She looked at him over her shoulder. "I am well aware that they will require a demonstration, especially when they're upset over the death of their family members. I know people. I am prepared to do what it takes to maintain my leadership. THIS is why so many follow me; this is why I inspire such loyalty in my men."

He brushed his fingers across her cheek. "And you're so beautiful." He murmured. 

She stood up. "These bodies can be dealt with in your usual way. I have seen to their spirits." He barked orders while she flipped through her book. 

He came over to her and brushed a hand down her arm. "What are your plans for tonight?"

"Eventually, I will go home." She looked up and into his eyes.

"Eventually?" He whispered. 

"I will not stay overnight with you. We are not far enough along." 

"But you will stay for just a little while?"

"I have decided to. I won't lie when I say that... a challenge ring always gets me... excited."

His eyes got just a little bit wider. "Is that so?"

"Goddess of war and sex, remember? I am charged by the fight, I am charged by the enjoyment of my body. The more I fight, the more I fuck, the more powerful and crazed I can become. This is why I have three in my bed every night. They sate me enough to get me through the day. And yet, they are not the only ones I have. The entire town is at my call. I use them all as I see fit. None can resist me." She grinned. "Just how I like it."

"I can see why." He breathed. 

She tucked her books back in her satchel. She reached up and put her fingers on his lips. "Before we go anywhere, you should know that you still have yet to earn the right to kiss me." 

"Your will be done." He whispered. 

She wrapped her arms around one of his and he led her back to his hut. She nodded at the upgrade in buildings. "Your camp is coming along nicely." 

"Anything to please you." He led her in and closed the flap. 

She rolled her eyes at the cheesy throne. The picture she'd given him was tacked on the wall above it.

His arms came around from behind her and wrapped around her. He rubbed his nose against her neck. "My beautiful goddess; just let me worship you." 

"I'm inclined to let you."

His hands went down and slipped under her shirt. He pulled her shirt off and ran his thumbs over her nipples. "You're so beautiful." He murmured as he kissed her shoulder. She leaned her head to the side and ran her hand up the side of his face. On hand went down into her pants and he stroked his fingers through her soft folds. "So soft." He purred as he worked on her shoulder. 

She pressed up against him and moaned softly. One hand cupped and caressed her breast and the other buried itself into her slick folds. She dug her fingers into his arms. 

"It's so bizarre, that a body this small could hold such power and rage." He whispered. "Yet fit so tightly against my own." He tugged her shirt over her head.

She turned around and ran her hands on his chest. She made it down to his pants and pushed them down. Pressing her body against his, his rock hard dick slipped between her thighs. 

"I want, so desperately, to kiss you."

"No." She shook her head. "My decision is final."

"My jealousy of Grogek is at a peak."

"That's not the only thing." She grinned as she shifted her legs. 




For the Whored Ch. 086



He groaned. 

Rolling her eyes at his hesitation, she kicked his leg out from under him and caused him to fall forward on top of her. She hit the bed with a bounce, and he caught himself on the bed before falling into her. He stared at her in shock. 

"You were taking too long." She licked his cheek. 

"Always so full of surprises." He grinned. He ran one hand down her body. "So aggressive."

"I told you, I feed off of sex. I'm rather hungry. Though, if you're not interested, I have hundreds to choose from. Though, I do have my favorites..."

His hand clamped down on her hip. "No. Please." He buried his face in her neck. "Let me worship you, my goddess." 

"Then show me."

He ran his hands over her body, sliding down her hip and across her breasts. He kissed and licked her neck and shoulder, making his way down to her breasts. He licked and sucked on one nipple and she squirmed under his attention. One hand went down and his fingers slipped through her slick center. He shifted his hips and slid into her. His hand clenched her hip as he groaned. 

"My goddess..." He breathed. Sliding in and out, he groaned. 

She shoved him over and sat up. His eyes grew wild as she began to rock her hips up and down. He gripped her hips and pumped her up and down. She put her hands on his chest and dug her nails into the flesh. "You... are... mine." She growled. 

He dug his fingers into her hips. "Take me, my goddess. Just... take me." 

She ground her hips down against him and let herself go. The clenching and flexing of her set him off and he exploded inside of her. She collapsed forward, her head and hand on his chest. 

He ran a hand down her back and kissed her hair. "That was glorious."

She sighed. "That was mild."

"What?"

She sat up and ran her fingers across his chest. "Oh, Charnak, a man like you? A body like yours? There's so much more I can pull out of you." She dug her fingers in his chest. "Oh yes, I might keep you just so I can play with you. I do like breaking my toys." She grinned. 

"I do not understand."

"Oh, but you will. You see, I am the goddess of sex, and I can show you things that will blow your mind. You just don't have my level of experience." She rubbed his chest in absent patterns. "I should make something known to you. The only reason I have granted you this much, is because Grogek himself has accepted your apology."

He rubbed his hands on her legs. "What must I do?"

"I am going to have SO much fun teaching you." She grinned. "I do like a new student." She flexed her muscled and caused him to flinch. "Like I said, a body like yours is capable of so much more than this." She slid off of him and rubbed his dick. "I knew from last time that you had a good size to you. I didn't know that you're not as attentive as I'd hoped. That's fine." She leaned forward and licked him off. "This beauty has a lot more to give." 

He groaned as she licked him up and down. She left kissing sucks up and down the length of him. He gripped the bed with one hand and her ass with the other. She slipped her hand around his balls and massaged them with her fingers. She shifted down and began to suck on his balls. He gasped and dug nails into her ass. With a grin she slipped her lips over the tip of him. 

"Goddess." He groaned. "Why do you torture me?"

She slipped further and further down, taking in the length of him as painfully slow as she could manage. When she felt the dick began to pump and flinch, she backed off and watched him come. She touched a finger to it that she bought to her lips and licked off of her finger. 

"Not so bad in flavor." She considered. "Perhaps next time I'll let you come in my mouth." She shrugged. "Who knows what I decide to do?" 

"You have... accepted me." He gasped. 

"You are one of my champions now. That much is true. For now, you remain a desired pet. She ran her fingers on his chest. "Do not make assumptions and do not expect any regularity. Anytime you over step your bounds, I will lose my temper. You have seen what happens when I lose my temper. Just like everyone else, you WILL answer to Grogek first and Jordan second. He may be a human, but he has done more to prove himself than you have. After that, I ask that you follow Renwa's directions, though he is not actually in my harem." 

"He's not?"

"No, but he was, before I gave him his wife." 

"You...?" He sat up on his elbow. 

"Yes, Renwa is a dear friend to me. I hated to see him so lonely, so I found him a wife. I am benevolent to my champions, previous or current." 

"Why is he no longer one of yours?"

"Because he wanted me to himself. I don't do monogamous relationships. He would have wanted to keep my body to himself. I told him no, and he accepted my answer."

"Foolish man." He stroked a hand down her arm. "No mortal tells a goddess what to do." 

She grinned. "Good boy." She put a hand to his cheek. 

He kissed the palm of her hand. "I will earn my place among my brothers."

She raised an eyebrow. "Brothers?"

"Your champions are my brothers. Your husband and your lover, they are my brothers. We are brothers, because we all love and worship the same goddess."



For the Whored Ch. 087



"Does that make me his sister, then?" Tulani giggled as she continued to sew at her desk. 

"I have no damned idea." Elunara groaned as she flopped on the bed. Grogek just laughed. "I once did a pair of Blood Elf twins, man they were something else... too bad they decided they were more interested in each other than they were me."

Tulani made a face. "EW."

"The shit you do." Jordan shook his head from the door way.

"GAH I did not want another pet. Two husbands are PLENTY, thank you." 

"Wait, husbands?" Tulani looked over at Jordan. "This is new."

"Yeah, I decided he was my husband in every way that counts, so he got promoted." Elunara grinned. 

Tulani shrugged. "Took you long enough."

"I swear to Elune, if you and Tippy had a betting pool going, you are sleeping at her house tonight." 

"Yes, miss goddess. And, ugh no. That woman has SUCH a superiority complex about marriage, I wouldn't dream of it."

"For a perpetually single woman, she sure has a strange hang up that people are only happy if they're married." Jordan crinkled his nose. 

"That's exactly her problem." Elunara shrugged. "She sees married people as the happiest, and she's not exactly a happy lady herself." She sighed. "Doesn't help that I add to her problem."

"That you keep stealing all the men?" Tulani grinned.

"No, she believes that I was an unhappy person until Grogek. I'm like the example that proves the rule to her." Elunara chuckled. "And you add in the fact that I married Tulani and look to be marrying Jordan, and suddenly, I'm the happiest person in the history of happy people, because I'm married three times over."

"Yeesh, Now I want to barf." Jordan laughed. "I'm going to bed."

"Night, Sugar." Elunara grinned. 

He walked over and bent down, kissing her. "Try not to add any MORE to the pile, would ya?"

"There's still the option to slit his throat!" 

"You won't. Not at this point." Grogek eyed her. 

She put a pillow over her head. "WHYYYYYyyyyyyy" She whined. "I shoulda slit him apart when I had the chance."

"There is a kindness in your heart that cannot harm the genuine." Tulani smiled.

Elunara stuck a hand out. "I blame him."

Grogek chuckled. "Just because I opened the door, doesn't mean you had to walk through it."

"About four hundred times." Jordan snorted.

Elunara shifted her arm. "Weren't you going to bed?"

"I was trying to tell my wife goodnight, but then she went turtle on me."

She whacked him with the pillow. "You just HAD to use "wife" didn't you?"

"I know your weak spots." He grinned. 

She sat up on her knees and draped her arms over his shoulders. "Good night, Sugar." She pressed her lips to his. 

He wrapped his arms around her and enjoyed the feeling of her mouth. "Good night, Baby."

"We really are a strange family." Tulani gave a happy sigh. 

As he passed, Jordan gave her a kiss on the cheek. "Yeah, but we make it work." 

"That we do." Grogek grinned. 

Elunara was flipping through some papers when she heard the knock. She sat her work down and opened the door. "Oh, hey Lucy, how's the jaw?"

She put a hand to her face. "It's better, thank you. Can I come in?"

"Sure thing." Elunara stepped back and let her in. She went to the library, got her board and sat down. "Forgive me; I have to keep my hands busy."

"Yeah, I know how that goes..." She sighed. "Listen, I never got a chance to thank you for saving my sister."

Elunara held up a hand. "I'm going to stop you right there. My house is a safe house. Anything said here will NOT be repeated outside of this house. Got it? So don't use that sister bit on me, because I'm not stupid. I have a wife for cripes sake." 

She sighed. "Terica hates it when I say it too. She desperately wants to be... out. Especially after what happened. She thinks that if we were out, he would have never been misled."

Elunara snorted. "If Terica was in front of me at this moment I would tell you that is complete bullshit. That kind of guy would have raped her to make her "normal". That's the kind of asshole you were dealing with."

"What happened to that guy anyway?" Lucy frowned.

"All I know, is I was called in to identify his remains. He got eaten by something in the wilds."

"Ew."

"Good riddance to bad rubbish." 

"Anyway, Terica has been pretty torn up about the whole thing, but I just don't know what to do. I don't want to risk my commission."

"Whyyyyyy would coming out be a risk to your commission?"

"Because I lied? I lied to get my lover here, not my sister."

"First and foremost, you're out in the middle of bumfuck nowhere; we ain't shipping either of you back, just because you fibbed. Second, Jerry and Louis hid in my house for MONTHS trying not to tell people, only to tell people by accident over a tragedy. No one was surprised. Hell, the people that will be surprised are just idiots. I have two husbands and a wife; you don't think THAT'S the weirdest thing people have seen? A pair of lesbians? Pfft." 

"I wish I had your confidence." She shook her head. "I wish I had your abilities. You're SO fast!"

"Answer me this,"

Lucy flinched.

"Why are you even in the army? Why be a soldier?"

"Because I come from a long line of them?" She flinched again. "My dad wanted a boy, he got me. So instead, I've been doing boy things my whole life, and when I got old enough...." She shrugged. "I actually put my name on the list to come out here for years. They're scraping barrel so I got to come out. I hoped for a better life."

"Sweetie, my mother is Tyrande Whisperwind. You wanna talk impossible shoes to fill?"

Lucy just gawked. 

"Believe me; I know what it's like to be a complete and utter disappointment to your parent. But, at some point, you've just got to let it go. If you're struggling to fill this role you never wanted, then find something you enjoy doing instead."

"But..." 

"General Grogek, General Jordan, and Admiral Renwa would NEVER force you to stay. Admiral sticky pants can go fuck himself. This is OUR town and we will run it how we see fit. If it's not for you, don't do it. I don't care if you're the best fighter out there, if you don't like what you're doing, you're just going to be a hindrance to the people who want to train. You came over here doing one thing, so what? Find your place in this world, or it will eat you alive."

"But I've..."

"Never done anything for yourself? There's a first time for everything."

Lucy sighed. "But the commission is all I have. Terica doesn't even have a skill set either. If I quit, who will provide for us?"

"How about this..." Elunara pointed her pencil at Lucy. "You take one month off from the commission, and I will cover your living expenses." 

"Oh, but I..."

"Shut up. The conditions are thus, you must take time EACH day and try something new. If you need a list of recommendations, let me know. Every single day of that month, you will try something new. If you do NOT find something that interests you in that time frame, then you go back to your commission. I will handle everything after that."

"I... I need time to think about it."

"Then shoo. Go find Terica, and start having some serious discussions. Remember, my house is a safe house. Something bothers you, you come to me."

She made her way down to the training yard and grinned at the two in a heated discussion. There was always something so soothing, so lifting, about them getting along so well. 

"Hello, lovers." She grinned.

"What's up?"

"What's your opinion on Lucy?"

"She that lesbian that's not a lesbian, living with her "sister"?" Jordan frowned. 

"The same."

"She sucks." Grogek snorted. "Her defense is pitiful and her offense is non-existent. I couldn't trust her to send her into battle; she'd just get someone killed. And not her opponent."

She told them of her offer.

"Hell, I'd pay for her to quit." Jordan snorted.

"Thought so. Anyway, figured I'd let you know." She headed up the hill to her tree. Popping out her board, she sat down and began to work. 

He watched her sit down and he admired her for a time, but when he stepped out to join her, a Draenei woman approached and sat down beside her. He watched his beloved turn and kiss the other woman. He frowned. Who was this woman, that got to have what he could not? She changed, and she giggled and flirted. She ran her hand across the back and the hips of the other woman. She pressed her lips again, fingers under the chin. They kissed and teased. Realization dawned on him then. 

He went rock hard as he watched. She pulled the other woman into her lap, kissing and stroking. This was one of her lovers. He would have to question her. Sitting down in the hidden shade, he undid his pants.

"Mm, you're in one of your moods."

"Just appreciating what I have." She grinned. 

"I'm not complaining mind you. Though you know how I am..."

"You know, my sweetness, there was a time where I wouldn't have gotten this far in public with you."

"You are impossibly hard to resist." Tulani scooted up closer and wrapped her arms around Elunara's neck. She pressed her lips to Elunara's and enjoyed the dancing. 

Elunara slipped her fingers under Tulani's shirt and caressed a breast. 

"Ah...." Tulani flushed. "That's a bit much for public." She gasped. 

"Sorry my little lovely, I couldn't help myself."

"You are helping yourself just fine."

"How about we head home for... a little fun time?"

"Well, now I just have to." 

Elunara closed up her board, and Tulani grabbed her basket. Elunara wrapped an arm around Tulani's waist and they headed for home.

He was disappointed when they stopped, but judging by their actions, they weren't finished. He tucked himself in his pants and headed back to his hut. 

Jordan and Grogek shared a look. 

"I'd say Tulani is getting bolder." Jordan commented. 

"I'd have to agree." Grogek nodded. 

From the training yard, Lucy watched the two with complete envy. 

They made it back home, dropped their things by the door and leapt at each other. Elunara had them both disrobed in record time before they hit the couch. Their mouths and tongues dances and writhed, as they ran their hands over each other. Tulani's butt hit the couch first. Elunara grinned as she made her way from Tulani's mouth, down her shoulder, across the collarbone, and to the breast. She slipped her fingers inside Tulani and felt for that spot that drove her mad. 

"Oh, I love how wet you are, my lovely." Elunara went down and buried her face in Tulani's crotch. 

Tulani grabbed her hair and arched her back, as Elunara licked and sucked, fingering her all the while. With a grin, Elunara pulled Tulani's tail loose and tickled her pussy with it. The tail flexed and struggled. Elunara guided it in and then just let it go. 

"Elunara!" Tulani gasped. "You're so mean!" She groaned. 

Elunara grinned and licked Tulani's wet folds. "And you're soaking wet, my lovely." She pulled the tail out. "But maybe it'd be happier somewhere else?" She pushed the tip of the tail into Tulani's ass, and helped slowly guide it into place. 

Tulani gave a sharp gasp and began to struggle as she shuddered. "Oh! OH make it stop!" 

Elunara tugged it out. "Sorry."

"That was a little too intense." Tulani gasped. 

"I'm sorry, sweetness, did I hurt you?"

"No, though I haven't figured out if I like it or not."

Elunara laughed. "Then I guess we'll have to experiment with it then." 

"You know, it's MY tail, why can I not control the stupid thing?"

"No idea, sweetness."



For the Whored Ch. 088



Elunara stepped out past the barrier and looked around. The camp had practically turned into a village. 

Charnak met her. "Is it to your liking?"

"Yes. I am pleased." 

"May I ask you something?"

She eyed him. "What now?" 

"I saw you the other day... with a Draenei female."

"On the hill?"

"Yes. I... didn't want to disturb you, so I left."

"That would be Tulani. She is my wife."

"She..." His eyes went wide. 

"Before you ask, she is my only wife and the only woman that I love. Should anything happen to her, it would be the same as Grogek, I would go completely ballistic."

"Is she... a warrior?"

"No. In fact, to best describe our relationship, it would be that I protect her. She was taken by slavers, and I rescued her. She has been mine ever since."

His mind ran rampant as he considered this new information. "You protect her, and she is yours to protect."

"I love her. I do not JUST surround myself with men who have earned my favor. I surround myself with those that I can protect, those that I take under my wing and shelter from harm. You call me the goddess of war and mercy. This is the mercy I show. Tulani is just the closest to my heart of any of them."

"I am..." He licked his lips. "I am amazed by your kindness."

"I would do anything it took to protect my people. Even if it meant slitting your throat, or slaying every last one of this magnificent army you have brought me. So long as you are no threat to the ones I love, you can continue to earn my favor."

"Tell me what I must do."

"There is a village to the west of here that has been taken over by demons. They summon an endless stream of them via dark gates. Destroy those gates and bring me pieces. Of course, continue your treatment of your dead. It will be very important here, because the demons will consume their souls. Those demons must be stopped. Those gates must be closed." She laid a hand on his arm. "It will be dangerous, so stay safe." She turned and walked away. 

He stared for awhile. She was concerned for his safety. 

Elunara scrubbed the kitchen table. She tossed down her rag at the knock on the door. She blinked at Lucy. 

"I'm going to do it."

Elunara looked at a calendar. "Your one month starts today?"

Lucy nodded. 

"Ok, since you have a strong arm, I recommend asking the blacksmith if he has any work. At the very least you should ask him for a tour or demonstration as to what happens there. Tell him Elunara is calling in a small favor. He'll know."

Lucy nodded before turning and walking away.

"MOMMA!" They called in unison. 

She sighed and leaned against the door. "What, you little monsters?"

"You have to come quick!"

"Lydia broke her arm!"

"WHAT? Weren't there like a dozen people along the way?"

"She's this way!" 

Elunara ran after the boys, behind the house and down into the orchard. The little girl was lying under the tree, crying. Without waiting for an explanation, Elunara scooped up the girl and started running for the healer building, channeling her energy as she ran. 

"Your momma is fast." One of the kids eyes went wide. 

"Night Elf speed bonus." One of the others replied. 

Darguni and Bradly ran into the healer building. 

Ina turned on the both of them. "Weren't you told to stay out of those trees?"

"Yes." 

Elunara sighed and held the little girl's hand while Leslia set the arm and began to heal. "What in the world were you doing in that tree?"

She sniffled. "The boys didn't want to play with me. They said I was too girly. So I wanted to show them I could do anything the boys did too." 

"Darguni, Bradly... did YOU tell her she was too girly?"

"Well, no." Said Bradly. 

"But she was taking forever,"

"And she never keeps up."

"So we have to wait on her all the time."

"We didn't mind,"

"Cause Momma Tuly walks slowly,"

"But the other guys were getting annoyed"

"And Aaron said it was because she was a girl"

"But WE said that our momma was a girl"

"And she was the best in the whole town."

"But then Rick said we had to give Lydia a test"

"To see if she wasn't too girly to play with us."

"And then they came up with the trees..."

Elunara gave a loud sigh. "You're both still idiots for going along with it. That tree sap is poisonous. If she'd been scratched, there'd be a whole different problem!" She put a hand on her hip.

"Momma..." Bradly whimpered. "You called us idiots."

She sighed. "Your friends did something incredibly mean, knowing full well they could hurt somebody, and you went along with it. That is just stupid. Your behavior ranked under the category of name calling, because you KNEW better. If the other kids are doing something mean, you have to either try to stop them, or come get me." 

"I'm sorry." Lydia bit her lip. 

"You're not to blame here sweetie. Hell, these two aren't to blame. It's your dumb friends." Elunara sighed. 

"But if I was faster..." 

"Has Grogek ever gotten around to that junior training?"

The boys shook their heads. 

"Well, now he's an idiot." She sighed.

The kids giggled. 

"So, maybe we'll work on helping you get faster. How about that?"

"You mean it?" Lydia squeezed her hand. 

"Sure kid. Gotta learn early. We'll work on form and stuff, after the healers clear you for it."

"We've bandaged the arm to keep it stable. Children's bones are so malleable; it's difficult to heal all at once. She'll have to come back for a few days." Leslia smiled.

"Sure, let's get you home and then I'll bring you over for your arm, and we'll start work." 

Elunara got Lydia on her shoulders and followed her directions home. 

Several days later, Elunara opened the door to let Lydia in. She frowned as she watched her walk to the living rom. 

"Kid, why are you limping?"

Lydia froze and stood up perfectly straight. "I'm not limping."

"First of all, you lie to me and I'll kick you out of here so fast the town will think you've sprouted wings. Second, I know bodies and you, madam, are limping."

Lydia turned around, tears in her eyes. "You CAN'T tell anybody!"

"Sweetie, my house is a safe house. Anything you tell me stays here; unless otherwise needed. This has always been my policy, and it's not changing any time soon."

She pulled up the edges of her big heavy skirt and showed off legs that were deformed.

"Ah. I've seen that many times before. We can still work with that." Elunara pointed to the couch and took the chair for herself. She popped out the board. "I understand you not wanting to tell your friends, kids can be mean little shits. But, I also understand being isolated because of how you were born."

"You have a deformity too?"

"According to some people? Yes. According to me? No. The truth is, I could not follow the expectations put on me, and people made fun of me, called me awful names. I decided I didn't care, and through my actions, have proven myself time and time again. Now, we can still work on building those leg muscles and get it so it's not so painful to run around. However, I think that you should at least tell my boys about your legs."

"But," She tugged on her skirt. "They'll make fun of me."

"First, they wouldn't make fun of you because they're better than that. Second, if they DO make fun of you, I will beat the living snot out of the little brats."

As if on cue, both boys ran in. "Can we take Yoona?" Bradly asked.

They stopped and said in unison, "Oh, hey Lydia."

Elunara raised an eyebrow at Lydia. Lydia gave a barely perceivable nod. "Boys, Lydia has something she wants to tell you. However, you're in the house, and you know my rule. You tell ANYONE for ANY reason, and there WILL be hell to pay."

"Yes, Momma." They said. 

Lydia tugged up her skirts and closed her eyes.

"Ohhh." The boys looked at each other. 

"That explains everything." Darguni nodded. 

"You're not going to laugh?" Lydia pushed her skirt down. 

"I was born with one Fang." Darguni pointed to his face. 

"Our Momma has two husbands." Bradly held up two fingers.

"And a wife."

"He's a half breed."

"Of and orc and a Night Elf."

"Momma eats energy." 

"Renwa and Zelinnia also had a half breed baby."

"Weird is always good."

"It just gets weirder around here."

"Your legs suck for you,"

"But now we know why you can't keep up."

"We'll protect you!" 

"Yeah, like Momma protects Momma Tuly."

"She was rescued from slavers you know."

"Weird is the best." They said in unison.

Elunara held out a hand. "Told you so." With a laugh, she shook her head. "Why don't you help them take Yoona on her walk."

"Yeah!"

"We have to walk her slow anyhow."

"So it's not like you have to struggle."

Elunara was tucking her board away for the night when she heard the knock on the door. She opened it and found herself clamped in a hug. "Uh, hi?"

"Thank you. Thank you, so much!" Lydia's mother wiped her eyes. "Oh Gods, I'm so sorry." She stepped back and wiped her eyes on a dishtowel. 

"Uh, Linda?"

"Yes, yes, I'm so sorry, can I come in?"

"Sure." Elunara gestured to the couch.

Jordan leaned over the banister, in nothing but his pants. "Something wrong?"

"Not a thing. Don't worry about it." 

"Okay then."

"Oh, MY!" Linda stared at his retreating form. 

"In about... 5, 4, 3, 2...."

The opened and Grogek walked in, divesting himself of his armor. He sat down and took off his boots, before yanking off his shirt and heading upstairs.

Linda had flushed a delightful shade of red. "You keep BOTH of them?"

"Often in the same bed."

"I see why you have trouble choosing." She said weakly. 

The door opened again. "Running a little late?" Elunara grinned at Tulani. 

"Extra order came in, and then they were late delivering my new bolts. I had to leave them so I could get Eloise her share of the order." Tulani took her basket up. "You have company?"

"Yeah. I'll explain later."

"That's fine. Boys asleep?"

"They're passed the hell out on top of Yoona."

Tulani nodded. "I'll see you when you come up."

"I heard the rumor that you had two husbands and a wife, but I thought it was... just a rumor."

"And every one of them calls me insatiable. You didn't come here about my personal life." Elunara leaned back.

"No, I came to thank you. Lydia has been having such a hard time adjusting around here. Its bad enough we're in the middle of nowhere, but she had to leave behind most of her friends. They're all the typical little girl... you know how it is."

"Actually, I don't. The first "kid" I saw my age, was when I was fourteen and kicked out of the priesthood for having no ability."

"Oh, that's so sad." She frowned. "Well, all of her friends want to do the whole tea party thing and groom themselves into young ladies. So they don't run around like maniacs and put a lot of pressure on her body. Now? They're all rough and tumble maniacs and she has to struggle to keep up. But, what you did for her today." Fresh tears sprang from her eyes. "You and your boys. Gods." She put a hand to her chest.

"Around here, our motto is, weird is the best kind of amazing. My boys saw her issue, and took to her like flies on honey. She'll do fine. I'm going to work with her, try to build up those fatigued muscles. She'll get going soon enough."

"I love how you refer to Harvard's son as one of your boys."

"He IS my boy. Gotta love a kid that declares he's yours because you want him." She laughed with a sigh. The door to the kid's room open and she rolled her eyes. "That kid has a knack for timing, I swear to Elune."

Bradly walked out, rubbing his eyes. "Momma?"

"Over here, kiddo."

Bradly climbed up into her lap and curled up. "I had a bad dream."

"That so?"

"She came back for me." He whimpered.

Elunara wrapped her arms around him. "I'll just beat her ass like I did last time."

"You protect me." He murmured. "You always protect me." He fell back asleep.

Linda put her hand to her mouth, fresh tears streaming down her face. "Oh Gods, why can I not stop crying? This is humiliating." She whispered. 

"Having a heart is not humiliating." Elunara grinned as she stood up. She went back into the boy's room and laid Bradly back down with Darguni. She brushed his hair out of his face and tucked a blanket over both. 

She stepped out and closed the door.

"You let that cat sleep in there?" 

"Yoona is a sweetheart. She usually just destroys fabric. Much to Tulani's annoyance." She sighed. 

"Your family is amazing."

"And we're all maniacs." Elunara laughed. "Of course we welcome Lydia with open arms. There's nothing normal about us at all." She ran her fingers through her hair. 

"And I am ridiculously grateful. She told me that she finally felt like she belonged somewhere. I find it fascinating, that she doesn't tell me until today, that the problem with her old friends, was sitting in their obnoxious chairs." Linda laughed. "She asked me if she could join your training regimen. At first, I was afraid for her. But now, I think I get it. So, yes, she can join your training camp. I'm confident you can help her."

"I'll do my best. You should know; she's a determined little girl. She'll move past this. I might not be able to make her 100%, but I can damn well get her pretty close."

And the duo became a trio. Lydia was huffing and puffing, but they stuck beside her. 

"Hey!" One of the other kids flailed his hands. "Come ON! Just leave her!"

"NO!" They both yelled.

"But your mom is giving a demonstration!"

Both boys looked at each other with a frown. They looked back at Lydia.

"Just go." She sighed. "I'll catch up."

Darguni went around her back and grabbed her by the waist.

"What are you..."

Bradly stooped down and grabbed her ankles. He stood up and adjusted. "Ok, GO!" They jogged in unison. 

Lydia was completely dumfounded as they carefully sat her on the platform. 

"You ok?" Darguni looked over her shoulder.

"Uh, yeah." She straightened her skirt. "Thank you." She blushed. 

"Yeah, sure thing." Bradly sat on one side, Darguni the other.

Elunara spun her staff. "Come on, lovers, I need a good work out." She grinned. 

Grogek and Jordan entered the ring with a grin. 

"I thought you got plenty of exercise last night." Jordan laughed. 

"Sugar, your stamina has dramatically increased, and the both of you gave me more than enough last night. But you and I both know this is a different exercise altogether. In fact, last night merely charged me up to take you down." She pointed her staff at him.

"Come for it, baby." 

"I do SO love "feeding" you." Grogek grinned. A comment that most of the men in the crowd took wrong.

"BEGIN!" She called. 

"Wow, your mom is vicious." A kid shook his head.

"Papa calls her his "vicious little she wolf"." Darguni Nodded. 

"She's crazy is what she is." Aaron snorted. 

"She's AMAZING." Lindsy sighed. "I wish my momma could fight like that."

"I wish I could fight like that." Lydia murmured. 

Bradly patted her leg. "Momma has agreed to train you; she'll have you fighting in no time." 

Darguni patted her other leg. "Yeah, if momma can fight like that, imagine how good you'll be, training under her."

"She says she'll get you into shape in no time."

"You'll be running around like a maniac. I just know you will."

"In any event, she'll train you in endurance."

"Yeah, she says that endurance is the key to any fight."

"If you can conserve your supply,"

"And use it in appropriate bursts,"

"You can bring down even the strongest opponent."

"Papa says that's how momma beats him in fights,"

"That she has crazy amounts of stamina,"

"And uses her endurance to weigh him down."

"Papa Jordan says that she's also just goddamned crazy."

The other kids gasped at the language. 

"It's a quote, so we can't get in trouble." Bradly grinned. 

"Momma enjoys the fact that she's completely crazy. She calls it her best asset." 

"Hey, Darguni, who is that guy?"

Darguni looked up and frowned. "Oh, I think that's Charnak that I've heard momma talk about. He's Papa's long lost brother?"

"He calls her his Goddess."

"Yeah, The Goddess of War and Mercy."

"He brought her an army to command."

Elunara hadn't noticed him, and he just stood there watching. His body was slit open in places, but even if he died, just watching her like this made his heart soar. Grogek and Jordan not only were holding their own against her, but they didn't seem to be showing any signs of wear. The hell he had just been through was all worth it, just to see her pleasure. It began clear to him that she went easy on the melee she commanded. This was true war and grit and unmerciful hell. She brought the human down first. Wearing him down and disabling him. She shoved him to the side with her foot, and turned her wrath on Grogek. 

Elunara spotted Charnak and the momentary distraction caused Grogek to land a glancing blow. She hissed in pain and went straight for the take down. When he was laying on his back in shock, she motioned her head. "My "champion" is back."

Grogek looked over his head and spotted the orc, watching in fascination. "Ah. I'll leave you to it." 

She tossed her staff to Jordan and made her way outside the ring. She looked him over and sighed. 

He dropped his arms and held out his hands. "My beautiful Goddess, watching you fight a real battle is something to behold."

She laid her hands on him and poured energy into his body. As she moved her energy around, both of their cuts healed themselves.

He groaned in ecstasy. 

"Now that you've been tended to, tell me how my army faired."

"We lost one hundred and twenty three, but we broke the gates and brought you many pieces."

"Very good, show me." She wrapped an arm around his. 

"Your mom seems very touchy feely with that guy." Lindsy snorted.

"Oh, she's like that with everyone." 

"Unless they piss her off." Bradly grinned. 

"Papa says she has enough heart to take in anyone who wishes."

"That she controls her body to her liking."

"Sounds like your mother is a whore." Lindsy snorted.

"Momma's codename in the SI:7 was "The Whore". She's quite proud of it." Darguni grinned. 

"She was the most successful agent, according to Renwa. Her success rate was insane."

"Why did she quit?" Lydia frowned. 

"When she met papa, she was put on assignment to watch him. But, eventually she fell in love with him, and the rest just fell into place." Darguni shrugged.

"Momma says that, it was difficult for her to learn to love, and that she has a hard time doing so."

"But papa says that, when she decides to allow herself to love,"

"She loves with her whole heart."

"Mind and body." 

"Papa Jordan says she is a creature of mystery and magic."

"That she can unlock even the most closed heart."

"Zelinnia says that Elunara can't help but save people."

"And Renwa says that she's mean as a snake and a walking migraine."

"He's lost track of the amount of times he has seen her slit someone's throat and not flinch."

"She once tortured someone in the training ring." Darguni grinned. 

"He tried to hurt Momma Tuly."

"Zelinnia saved her by fireballing the guy and sitting on him."

"So Momma tied him to a chair,"

"And cut him hundreds of times."

"Now he cleans the latrines."

"THAT GUY?" One kid gasped.

"Yep, Momma did that." Bradly grinned. 

"She put every scar on his body and some we can't see."

"Renwa said that, when he blacked out, Momma dumped salt water on to him."

Lydia's head flick back and forth between the two boys. Elunara wasn't the only walking migraine, she sighed. "I'm scared." She whispered.

Both boys wrapped their arms around her back. 

"Don't you worry." Bradly smiled.

"Momma likes you." Darguni grinned. 




For the Whored Ch. 088



"She's going to train you."

"She keeps her word."



For the Whored Ch. 089



Elunara followed him out to the camp. This time, everyone was looking more injured and bedraggled than before. While three hundred and twenty three was a more manageable number of orcs, she still had to find some way to scrape them off. He led her to the wagon of gate pieces. She picked through them and nodded. "This is acceptable."

He bowed "I am glad you are pleased."

She picked up a small stone. "Have them broken into pieces about this size. I can turn them into augment stones for my warriors. They will go into their next battle better prepared."

"I wish that you would join me. Command the army by my side." He brushed her fingers across her cheek. 

"This army pleases me. Perhaps I will." Pulling out a sheet of paper, she began to sketch. She pushed around some of the stones and set them aside. When she was done, she handed him the sheet. "I want these pieces attached to the skull. I will be able to use it to bolster our troops while they are here." 

"Yes, my goddess. It pleases me to hear you call them "our" troops." 

She shrugged. "Technicality." She ran her fingers under his chin. "Rest up. I shall be back when it is convenient."

She made her way into Renwa's office and gave her report. 

"Impressive."

"I also regret to inform you..." She winced.

"Yes?"

"That Grogek has forgiven his brother."

Renwa and Zelinnia started laughing hysterically at the same time. 

Admiral Duchie frowned and looked back and forth. "What's so wrong about that?"

Renwa stopped laughing first. "Elunara here won't be able to bring herself to slit his throat without justifiable cause. It's one thing when she's still pissed off that the asshole took the life of her husband, it's another when said husband forgives the man."

"Am I always that fucking obvious?"

"Yes." Renwa and Zelinnia said at once. 

Elunara crossed her arms. "I should kill Grogek for giving me a fucking conscience." She grumbled.

Zelinnia snorted. "You'd keep him alive, if only for the fact you can't function without him."

"Don't make me kill him on principle."

"Don't make me call your bluff." Zelinnia gave her a cat smile. 

"I used to be able to intimidate you."

"I didn't know you then." Zelinnia flipped through her papers. "Or the parts of you." She mumbled.

Renwa and Elunara looked at each other. Zelinnia went bright red and pointedly buried her face in her paperwork. 

"All of that aside, isn't it a problem when your best operative won't kill her target?"

"The problem is, he has to present me with a reason to kill him. I didn't say I wouldn't. He crosses ANY of the lines I have given him, and I'll gladly turn the bastard into hamburger. However, he is worshipful, modest and does everything I say. It's like having a well bred pet. If the pet turns and bites the hand, it's put down with some measure of mercy for the pet it used to be."

"My information is that you've been having sex with the beast." 

"Would you like a list of men that I have killed while still in the bed with them? It's quite lengthy. Hell, Renwa has witnessed a few. On three separate occasions I have snapped a man's neck while he had his tongue in my pussy. I don't give a rat's ass about the men I've fucked for the sake of the mission. I get what I want, and then they die. That's how it works." She gestured out the window. "Right now, I have an army at my disposal and they have done each task I asked of them. Tell me the part where I should dispose of him at this juncture."

She walked down the path and the boys jogged up to her. "Momma! We have a question!"

"Where's Lydia?"

"I'm here!" She huffed and puffed, "I'm here." 

Elunara picked her up and put her on her shoulders. "Now, what is your question?"

"Since Charnak is Papa's brother, does that make him our uncle?" Darguni cocked his head to the side. 

"He hasn't earned the right to be called your uncle."

"What does that mean?"

"Some time ago, when you were still a baby, Charnak killed your father."

Both boys gasped and put their hands over their mouths. 

"In my rage and anger, I unlocked a part of myself that I didn't know existed. I killed... a lot of Orcs, and then I went into the nether and yanked your father's soul away from oblivion. I tried to do the same thing for your father Bradly, but he was brought to me too late. Anyway, bringing Grogek back took a great deal of energy and opened my body to the presence of a dark star, that almost killed me in the process. You saved me." She reached down and scrubbed her hand on Darguni's head. 

"As it happens, instead of killing him, like I wanted to... he bowed down and swore allegiance to me. He called me a goddess, and in some ways, I have been. In any event, I decided to release him and track him. He had valuable information on the locations of his kind, people we could route out and take down, or absorb into our ranks. I told him to bring me an army, and he has. So now, each time he does what I say without question, he earns more rights. The other day he came and apologized to your father and swore allegiance to him. Begged him for forgiveness, and even bowed to Jordan, of all things. Your father has forgiven him, and now I must decide what to do about it."

"What rights has he earned?"

"I'm not about to tell you that one. You are definitely not old enough." Elunara snorted.

"Ugh, parents always say that." Lydia groaned. 

"Not our Momma."

"She always speaks to us like she would an adult."

"She doesn't believe in kid speak."

"If she doesn't want us to know,"

"It's best not to ask." Both boys nodded at each other. 

"Why are we at the healer building?" Lydia frowned. 

Elunara took Lydia off her shoulders. "Because I need Ina's help."

"With what?" 

Elunara sat Lydia on the front table. "Ina!" 

"What?" She stuck her head out of a door. 

"I need a favor."

Ina blinked. "You don't ask for favors often. What do you need?"

"Can we get a private room?"

Ina nodded. "I got one upstairs." 

Elunara picked Lydia up again and carried her up the stairs. 

"Can we come, momma?" 

"If Lydia says it's ok."

She looked down at them and blushed. "Yes."

They bounded up the stairs and slipped into the room. 

Ina closed the door. "What's up?"

"Are you aware of Lydia's legs?" 

"You said you wouldn't tell." Lydia frowned and shifted uncomfortably.

"Aye, her mother told me, and I felt them when she broke her arm."

Tears ran down her cheeks.

"Ina, I need your help. I'm going to try something, but I need you to guide me. I may be able to see the body, and I may be able to heal it, but we're working with something I don't quite understand."

"I'm following you, but I fail to see what you're trying to do."

"I want to ease her pain. I think that I might be able to flood her body with my energy. I need you to guide it to the right places."

Ina frowned, her finger pressed against her chin. "It's radical, we can't be sure you'll even DO anything, but I'm willing to try it."

"Are you ready, Lydia?" Elunara looked at the girl. 

"Yes." She whispered. 

Elunara put a hand to the girl's hip and linked her hand with Ina. Ina put her hand on the other hip and closed her eyes. Elunara closed her eyes and poured her energy into the little girl. Silently she began her prayer. Even if she didn't understand the situation, she prayed the little girl some relief. She prayed her body would heal and relax those painful muscles, for strength in the bones. The energy hummed between them and Ina felt as though she was just guiding, not really doing. It amazed her, what she felt pumping out of Elunara's body. She wished she could convince the woman to come to the building more often. 

Elunara fluttered her lashes and stopped the energy transfer. She might have overdone it, because she was feeling light headed. 

"THAT WAS SERIOUSLY COOL!" Bradly yelled. 

They both ran over and bounced up and down.

"Did you feel it?" Darguni asked. 

"Did it work?" Bradly asked. 

Lydia stared down at her legs. "They don't hurt." She marveled. She yanked up her skirts and started at her bare legs. They were still not right, but the muscles had relaxed in some places. She jumped off and walked around in circles. "They don't hurt." She whispered. 

Elunara held her head. "Oh good, it worked. I need to go find Grogek or Jordan or... somebody." She shook her head. 

"We'll help, momma!" Darguni and Bradly wrapped their arms around her waist. 

"Help her what?" Lydia asked. 

"Momma gets energy from people's affection towards her."

"That's much better." She smiled and rubbed her hands on their heads. 

"Oh!" Lydia wrapped her arms around Elunara's waist.

She laughed. "I just poured energy into you, I won't get as much back at the moment." With a sigh, she dislodged them. "Thank you for the snack, but I need some serious recharging." She looked at Ina. "Thank you. Maybe we'll try again another time, make more progress." 

Ina shook her head. "I'm not even sure how you could. Her legs are... well, you did a huge amount, but I don't know if further is possible."

Elunara nodded. "Then we start retraining her legs. Work with what we've got." She stretched out and motioned. "Come on, let's go for a walk."

"Can we stop and get Yoona?"

"Sure."

Elunara's little parade made it down to the training yard. 

Grogek raised an eyebrow. "Well, you're up to three kids and two cats, what's your goal?"

She grabbed him by a fang and yanked his mouth to hers. His hands came around her waist as he danced his tongue and mouth with hers. She leaned back and smiled. "Ahh, much better."

The kids giggled.

"What was that about?"

"I just burned a huge store of energy on an experiment."

"Ah, in that case." He wrapped his arms around her and enjoyed her taste. 

"What did I miss?" 

Elunara grinned back at Jordan. "I burned up a store of energy. Just getting a recharge." 

"In that case." He tugged her over to him and proceeded with the same ritual. 

"Your parents are weird." Lydia whispered. 

"The best kind of weird." They replied in unison. 

Elunara laughed. "That's my boys." 

Grogek and Jordan each had an arm wrapped around her back. She wrapped and arm around each of theirs. 

"Feeling better, love?" Grogek grinned. 

"Oh, much. It's always so nice to have a yummy pair of husbands." She grinned. 

"We're always happy to help." Jordan grinned. 

"So you have TWO husbands?" Lydia marveled. 

"And a wife. But don't follow me kid, I'm bugfuck nuts." She rocked her head back and forth. "Also, don't tell your mother I used the phrase "bugfuck", she might never let me speak to you again."

"Everything Elunara does is unique to her and wouldn't work for other people." Jordan shook his head. "It is because Grogek is who he is, that Elunara is able to continue as she is. After that, the rest of us just fell into place."

"You won't find people like us." Elunara shrugged. 

Lydia looked back and forth between Bradly and Darguni. Darguni had positioned himself so that Grogek had his hand on the kid's head. Bradly had positioned himself so that Jordan had his hand on him. Maybe she had. 

Elunara scratched her head and opened the door. She got covered in arms again. With a sigh, she untangled herself. "Hello, Linda."

"What an amazing person you are!" Tears streamed down her face. "My baby girl was able to RUN! She RAN and she went up the stairs without pain."

"If I'd known you were going to weep on me, I wouldn't have done it." She pulled her sticky shirt away from her. 

"You can't fool me. I know what an amazing heart you have." She clapped her hands to her chest. 

Elunara pulled off her shirt and tossed it into the laundry pile, grabbing a fresh one from the downstairs closet.

"Oh my, you just don't care who sees you, do you?" 

"Not overly." She tugged the shirt down. "Come in and shut the door."

"I can't believe you did such an amazing thing for my little girl. The healers couldn't even do anything for her."

Elunara flopped down on the couch. "Eh, Tulani says I have a compulsive need to save people." she shrugged. "Listen, I'm a little wiped out. I drained a good hit of my reserve power on your kid, and I wasn't even sure it would work. I just couldn't stand seeing her walking around in such pain, and doing her damnedest to hide it. She's still not that great off, but the boys have taken a liking to caring for her."

"Yes," Linda smiled as she sat primly down on the couch. "She told me how they picked her up and carried her when she couldn't run fast enough to keep up."

"That's my boys." Elunara grinned. 

"I believe Lydia may have already have developed a crush on the both of them." She sighed.

Elunara raised an eyebrow. "I'll be curious to see how that one plays out." 

"I'm a little worried; children can be so easily heartbroken."

"Eh, who knows? With the examples shown in this house..." 

"Everyone tells me that I shouldn't let her come here. That your house is a bad house for little girls."

Elunara snorted as she leaned back and put her arms behind her head. "People say lots of shit, doesn't make it true."

"My own child has picked up your saying, that it doesn't matter what people think, so long as you know the truth."

"I spent about twenty five years as an SI:7 mission specialist. I had to lead people to believe whatever they wanted to believe in order to get out of them what I needed. I know the truth and that's all that ever matters." Elunara shook her head. "The end result is that I am who I am, because I made myself this way. I wasn't traumatized, I wasn't tortured, and I most certainly wasn't messed with. I may have some odd philosophies, and I may do some really questionable things, but no child comes to harm under my roof. 

Everyone, men, women and children are told that MY house is a safe house. Anything said or done under this roof stays under this roof. You will not be bullied, picked on or laughed at. No matter how bad you think it is, I've seen worse. If you need just a safe place to get away from things, then you can do it here. If you're in trouble, you let me know what's going on, and I'll handle it the best way I see fit."

"That's a fascinating policy."

"I've told my kids, I don't do kid speak. I will talk to you like a person, and you will speak to me as such. If I have to re-explain something, that's fine. But I don't fart around with bullshit." She shook her head. "So, forgive me, for I do believe I've cussed around Lydia, I don't think to censor myself."

"You..." Linda put a hand to her mouth. "You healed her. I went to Ina and I asked her to explain to me how, but even she didn't know. She told me..." Linda swallowed the lump in her throat. "That you had a plan in mind and she was to guide you to it, but you did it just fine on your own, and she got to watch. She describes it as beautiful." She sniffled and wiped her eyes again. "Whatever your past, whatever you're doing now, I can't really argue." She choked on her words. 

Elunara leaned forward and patted her on the back. "Deep breath, relax, let it go. Deep breath, relax... that's the way." Elunara brushed her hair off her face. "Deep breath, relax. You're doing good."

"You must think me completely ridiculous."

"I think you're a mother overcome with emotion. It's happened to me a time or two."

"Oh, Gods, my baby walked without pain." She started weeping into her handkerchief. 

Elunara reached under the couch and handed the woman a towel. 

"Do I want to know why you have a bucket of towels under your couch?"

"They're all clean. I change them out daily."

"Ok, I don't want to know why." She sniffled into the towel. "I don't know how I could possibly repay you."

"See, that's the thing about me. I don't want payment. I don't need it. If you want to feel like you're paying me back, then always be kind to my kids."

Elunara spent the next couple of weeks working exclusively with Lydia in her spare moments. She was coaching the kid when Charnak made his next appearance in the training yard. She blatantly ignored him and focused on finishing the kid's training. 

"Alright kid, you're released from the torture." She tossed her the skin of water. "Go rest up."

A panting girl chugged at the water before moving off to sit down.

Elunara strolled over to Charnak and ran a hand over his chest. "There you are. Your wounds have healed nicely."

"Who is that child?"

Elunara glanced back. "Oh, that's Lydia. She's under my training now."

"Fascinating."

"I refuse to tell you more than that, her situation is... delicate."

"You do not treat her delicately."

"It wouldn't help her if I did. What brings you into town?"

His attention was redirected to her. "I missed you, my beautiful goddess. It's been so long since I saw you last." He brushed a hand over her cheek. "How desperately I wish to kiss you."

"I have yet to decide if I should let you or not." Which was the truest statement she could have made. 

"You are so pure hearted; you even take time to train the young ones yourself."

"Only under special circumstances." They slipped past the barrier. She looked back. "That little girl was born with bad legs. Instead of throwing her aside, her parents kept her, to great burden. I have healed her legs and have taken her on as my own, to train her properly."

The next thing she knew, he cupped her chin and was pressing his lips to hers. With a growl she cracked him in the face. He dropped down to his knees, hands on the ground. "Please forgive me my goddess. I was overcome with emotion. Do not kill me, for I have made a horrible error." He put his face in the grass. 

She continued to stand over him and growl. She reached down and grabbed him by the shirt, hauling him up into the air. He flailed his legs in shock, before staring down at her. "Do NOT presume too much! I have told you that I decide what I do. You do not make forward attempts! DO you HEAR ME?"

"Yes, my Goddess, forgive me. Please, please forgive me." He whimpered. 

She tossed him to the ground. "I am too angry to deal with you right now." She kicked him in the side. "I'm going in, before I decide to eradicate you. I will return tomorrow, when I am less infuriated. Keep your ass out here until I return." She stomped away. 

She made her way to Grogek and sat down, arms crossed. 

"What plagues you, my love?"

"Charnak kissed me."

"Does he still live?"

"Barely."

"Then you must actually care for him." Grogek shrugged.

She gawked up at him. 

"That was your moment to slit his throat and dispose of the army as you saw fit. You did not, so even you must feel... something."

She put her chin on her fist. "Well, it is like you to know me better than I know myself."

He reached down and stroked her hair. "I support you. Whatever you decide, I will always support you." 

She grabbed his hand and kissed it, before rubbing it against her cheek. "You are the best kind of person. I love you with all my being."

"As I love you, my vicious little she-wolf."

"Besides, I could use a slave. The army's not bad... and it royally pisses of Duchie that I keep him." She grinned with the ferociousness he'd come to love.

She'd decided to let him stew for a few days. No need to lose the situation over a stupid kiss. Rather him think her in a rage, than in love with him. She shuddered at that thought. Pet, yes. Love, no. She whistled as she swept the front porch.

Darguni ran up and gasped. "MOMMA! THEY TOOK BRADLY!

She dropped her broom. "WHAT?"

"A big, bald human man came and asked if he was Bradly, then... grabbed him. Said he was... taking him back... to his mother." Darguni pointed. "They went that way! Lydia is trying to follow!"

"No! Nonononono NO!"Tell whoever comes here that I will be back. Tell them what happened!" She took off running. 




For the Whored Ch. 089



Charnak gathered his axe and made his way around the barrier, picking flowers. It was ridiculous, but maybe he could convince her to be less mad at him. He saw the man come out of the barrier, kid in his arms. 

"MOMMA, SAVE ME!" The child screamed. 

Charnak frowned. He recognized that child. His eyes went wide and he tossed down the flowers. There would be hell to pay, if something happened to one of her children. He chased after the man. He managed to catch up and found the man stopped, digging through his bags. The child was struggling to get away.

"Goddamn, kid. I'm taking you back to your mother, you should be pleased."

"SHE'S NOT MY MOTHER! I HAVE A MOTHER!" 

"Yeah, they brainwashed the hell out of you." 

Charnak grimaced, he couldn't throw his axe. If he hit the child, he might as well slit his throat now. He snuck up behind the man. The boy was punching and kicking all that he could, and Charnak nodded in appreciation. The man cracked the boy on the back of the head, knocking him out. 

Charnak reached out and grabbed the back of the man's skull and squeezed. He was disappointed the skull broke so quickly. Knowing his beloved, she'd be pissed she didn't get a chance to rend flesh from bone while the bastard was alive. He sighed. Unwilling to let go of his prize, he reached down and scooped up the boy with his free arm and made his way back.

She crashed through the trees, dagger in hand. Seeing him, she froze. "Oh Gods, Bradly!" She ran over and pulled the child out of his grasp. She wrapped her arms around him. 

"This bastard knocked him out." Charnak held up the body. 

She gently laid the boy down, and then threw herself at Charnak. Wrapping her arms around his neck, she whispered. "Thank you, thank you, oh, thank the Gods for you." She pressed her lips to his and then dropped down, scooping the boy up. "Bring that asshole." She growled. She turned and walked away. 

He found himself following along behind in a daze. 

Bradly groaned before struggling. 

"Shh, shh, it's me. It's me."

Bradly wrapped himself around her. "Momma, I was so scared."

"It's alright, my little love. I was on the way. My friend here got to you first and returned you to me. You should thank him." 

Bradly eyed Charnak. "Thank you for saving me."

"That's my good boy." She hugged him tighter. 

"He said he was taking me back to my mom. I tried to tell him you WERE my mom." 

"Idiots believe stupid things. You are mine, now and forever."

He buried his face into her shoulder. 

"Sweetie, we're at the barrier. Do you want me to carry you in, or do you want to walk in on your own?"

"I'll walk." He slid down and held her hand as she stepped inside. "Go find your brother. He's waiting at..."

Lydia threw herself at Bradly. "You're alright!" 

"Yeah."

"Ok, Darguni is waiting at home, go find him, let him know everything is OK. I have something I need to do." She sighed as she watched them run off, hand in hand. 

"I have some questions..." He hazarded.

"Bradly is not my birth child. I rescued him from a shitty situation and now he is mine in every way that matters. He is my son and brother to my child." She turned to him. "You have returned him to me, and for that I am extremely grateful. I have much to consider. Now, bring that trash. I would have liked to have taken him alive, but I'll just have to be satisfied with his death." She turned and kept walking. 

"Enter!"

She stepped in and Charnak followed her. He dropped the body where she pointed.

"The hell is this?" Renwa stood up. 

"This man just tried to kidnap Bradly, claiming to take him back to his mother." She stooped down and began to rifle through his things. "Charnak was able to stop him before he could use this." She tossed the scroll to Renwa. 

"A port to Stormwind?" He growled. "That woman is insane."

"I want a message to Varian, NOW!" She growled in return. 

"I'll have it made up and ready for your approval."

"Thank you." She nodded. "Meanwhile, I have a great deal of angry to work off." 

He followed her through town and was impressed by people's reaction to her. She stopped by her home and he stood in front of the door. She looked at him for a moment. "Only for right this moment." He scrambled to step inside her domain. 

"Bradly?" 

"In here, momma." She walked into a room in the back. 

He looked around with a mild degree of envy. He could see rooms upstairs and rooms down below. She was living in much better conditions than he was. But, she was his goddess, and she could live any way she wanted. He was certain this house was built on the backs of her followers. Only the best for her and her chosen. He desperately wished that he could have a place in this home.



For the Whored Ch. 090



She stepped out from the room and nodded. "I had to make sure he was OK." Brushing past him, she went outside. She came up short and he bumped into her. 

A woman flung her arms around Elunara. "Thank you so much!"

"Uh, you're welcome?" 

Lucy kissed her on the cheek. "I got a job at the tannery!" She squeaked. "Oh, I'm having so much fun. It's really quite fascinating. So, now I'm an apprentice! And it's all thanks to you." She kissed her other cheek. "Maybe next, you can help Terica find something that interests her!"

Elunara laughed. "I'm glad it's working out for you. I was just headed down to speak with Grogek."

Lucy blinked a couple of times before looking up. "Oh, that's not Grogek." She put her hands to her red cheeks. "You were busy. I'm so sorry for interrupting you."

"Nah. It's not that. Someone tried to take Bradly, Charnak here brought him back to me."

"Oh no! How horrible!" 

"Yeah, we can discuss it more later, I have to speak to Grogek."

"Yes, yes of course, I'll let you get back to it." She ran off. 

"What was that about?" He hesitated. "If I may ask?"

"Lucy has been having trouble finding her place in town. I've been having people let her try their trade in order for her to learn something that interests her. I don't believe in anyone being stuck in a job they hate. They must find their place, or leave." 

"The more I learn about you, the more my heart fills." He ran his hand down her back. "You are a wise and benevolent leader, who loves her people. Your rage is endless and your power great, yet you show them kindness and love." 

She made her way down to the training yard and stood on the side, waiting for Grogek to finish what he was doing. He raised an eyebrow and meandered on over to Elunara. 

He deliberately kissed her. "Yes, my love?"

"A man, hired by that bitch Barbara tried to take Bradly."

Grogek growled. 

"Charnak was able to intercede the man and killed him before he could get off a portal." 

Grogek considered Charnak. "You have returned our son to us. For that, I am grateful."

Jordan jogged up. "What's going on?"

"Charnak saved Bradly from an attempted kidnapping."

Jordan's eyes grew large. "Oh, Gods, how is he doing?" 

"He and Darguni are in their room with Lydia. He's shaken up, but doing well."

Jordan put a hand on Charnak's shoulder. "Thank the Gods for you."

Elunara nodded. "Yes, I am incredibly grateful. This... alters things." She spied the kids and gestured. "Excuse me." She left them there to go to the kids. Bradly was shifting his eyes back and forth.

"Honey, you can't be afraid your whole life." She stooped down and brushed her fingers through his hair. 

"I'm trying to not be, Momma."

"I know you feel awful right now. Once before? I was kidnapped too. I was taken to a faraway place, covered in ice, and locked in a tent with no way out. Darguni was only about six months old. I was scared, tired and I desperately wanted my husband and baby. But I didn't give up. I was smart and resourceful. Yes, it was painful. Yes, it was disgusting and awful. But you have to keep your head on in those situations. I'll teach you how. I'll teach all three of you how. Besides, I saved Zelinnia. Even when captured myself, I still managed to save someone else. You can do great things too, my little love."

"You think so?"

"Sweetheart, you have a capacity that is far beyond anything you can imagine. It's the same for all three of you." She brushed the hair back on all three faces. "I will teach you. You see how well Lydia can run now. I'll help lead you down the path of the just." 

The three of them wrapped their arms around her at the same time and she laughed as she fell on her ass.

"Alright, come on, get off of me. I'll hurt you, don't think I won't." She warned. 

They giggled as they climbed off of her. 

"We love you, Momma." They both cried at once.

"Um..." Lydia put her hands behind her back and dug the toe of her shoe in the dirt. "Can I love you too?"

Elunara stroked the child's hair. "You can do anything you want, Darling. Don't ever let anyone tell you different." 

Lydia leaned forward and kissed her cheek. "I love you." She whispered, before turning and running after the boys. She stumbled, and Darguni caught her. She blushed up at him. 

"Well, they're well on their way." Elunara laughed.

"My body swells with emotion every time I am near her." Charnak murmured.

Jordan smacked him on the shoulder. "Welcome to the club, buddy."

"Elunara tends to cause that kind of a reaction." Grogek grinned. "Welcome to the fold, for we are legion. So long as she wishes to call you as such."

Elunara stood up and wiped her butt off. She straightened her spine and marched over. "We have not finished our discussion." She turned and walked away. 

He scrambled to keep up with her, as Jordan and Grogek grinned at each other. 

"I just wonder if we're going to have to make room in the house." Jordan snirked. 

"He could have not found a better way into her heart."

"Or ours, for that matter." Jordan snorted. 

"Yes, saving one of our children is the best way to do it. I wonder if it was a true leap of heroism, or if this fell in his lap and he took it." Grogek tapped his foot.

"Elunara will out all lies." 

"Only she will know how to fit him in." Grogek stretched his back out. "Though it would be nice to have another helping to train our men."

Jordan snorted. "He's got an army to worry about."

"You know, I've been very angry with you." She rounded on him the moment they stepped through the barrier. "I am the one in charge." She shoved a finger into his chest. "I call the shots, I'm the one who's on top of things. I am the one who dominates, who tells YOU what to do. You don't do as I say, I get EXTREMELY pissed off." She jabbed him several times. "If I tell you NO, then you LISTEN to ME."

"Yes my goddess, forgive me... I... I should not have..."

She laid her hand on his chest and stood on her toes. "I want to be the one who says what stays and what goes." She got close to his face. "I want to be the one to do something first." She stared at his mouth. She dropped back down on to her feet. "You saved my son today. If you did it by accident, or if you set out to do something to impress me, you have." She put both hands on the sides of his face. "I am grateful. She went back on her toes and brushed her mouth against his. 

He leaned forward and pressed his mouth to hers. His hands came around her hips, and he slid his hands upwards. He was slow and methodical; savoring this moment on the off chance she changed her mind. He would have this one moment of beauty to himself. He spoke to her in his own language. 

She laughed and ran a finger along his lower lip. "Usually when Grogek says that, I tease him for going sentimental on me." It was a cruel slap, but one she had to know his response to.

"It's fascinating how much like my brother I truly am." He murmured, forehead pressed to hers, as he ran his hands up and down her back and ass. "When I found out my brother had been captured by... off worlders, I thought he had gone soft and worthless. If he could not free himself from your clutches, he was as good as dead to me. Who would have thought that I would come here to slay him, and find a great warrior goddess instead?"

She laughed. "Is that so?"

He brushed his hands down her arms. "Now I find myself envious of him and all that he has. I want you in my bed, and I want to make love to you. I want you to teach me all that you claim I lack."

"I've shared my bed with hundreds of men. And I'll share my body again with hundreds more. Can you handle that? Can you look them in the face and know that they are mere amusements to me? Can you be one of my champions without using it against my toys?"

"I will do anything to please my goddess." He breathed. 

"You must understand that I need them. I feed off of them. No matter how much you try to give me, I will always crave more. If you discourage even a single one..."

"No, my goddess. Never. Grogek is always your number one; Jordan is always your number two. I will never take their place. All I beg for... is a small section."

"Fine then, I will allow it."

He grabbed her up by the waist and spun her around. "I'll never make you regret it." 

She laughed softly. "Put me down, dippy. We must walk into camp with dignity."

He sat her on the ground. "Dippy?"

"Eh, I find pet names for my Champions. She lowered her voice. "Grogek is Sugarbear, and Jordan is Sugar. Tulani is Sweetness."

"I look forward to it." He grinned. He led her through the camp and allowed her to inspect the troops. The camp was coming along nicely. She offered her opinions. 

"I should come back, update my books." She tapped her finger on her chin. 

He gestured to his hut. 

She ran her fingers under his chin before stepping into the hut. He closed the door behind him and he cupped the back of her head and pressed his mouth to hers. She ran her hands up his arms. 

"I am eager to make love to you, my beautiful goddess."

"Yes, but this time, we do it my way." She growled with a grin.

He lay on his back, staring at the ceiling. Yes, her way was MUCH better. She propped herself up on her elbow and traced circles on his chest. 

"Yes, I do choose well in my Champions." She kissed his chest.

He brought his hand up and stroked it down her hair. "My goddess..." He whispered. 

"I have a task for you."

"Anything."

"To the south of here, there are some ogres taking up a ruin. They offend me. Be rid of them. I warn you, they have tapped into magic and are quite formidable."

"We will bring them down for you." He brushed his fingers across her cheek. "Perhaps you could ride into battle with us?"

"Not this time. I have much to attend. If you faire well this time, perhaps the next task I will stand at your side." She kissed his chest again. "Perhaps even fight."

"I would give anything to see you in a battle." He breathed. 

She stretched her back. "Another time. I must be off."

He sat up. "Can you not spend the night?"

She brushed her fingers under his chin. "No. Especially not tonight, I have to tend to my children."

"Forgive me, I had forgotten." 

She brushed her lips against his. "It's fine." 

He cupped the back of her head and pulled her in for more. When she finally pushed him back, he sighed. "I so wish to have you wake up by my side, so that we could make love in the early morning hours."

She sighed and shook her head. "First you wish to worship me, then you wish to enter me, then you wish for kisses... do you ever stop with your wishes?" She ran her fingers under his chin. "Another time, lover. Get your rest, you have ogres to kill."

She jogged all the way home, cursing the lateness of the hour. She bolted into the house and into the boy's bedroom. Darguni was bouncing up and down in his bed, but Bradly was sitting quietly in his, staring at the pictures on the wall. Darguni stopped bouncing when she walked in. 

She slid into Bradly's bed and wrapped her arm around him. "Doing Ok?"

"You were gone forever." He said quietly. 

"I'm sorry, I was attending to some business and it just ran later than I wanted."

He laid his head against her chest. "She almost got me." He mumbled.

"I'm sorry, my love. I wish I could have been the one to save you again, but I'm glad you were saved before I could get there." She put a hand under his chin. "I would be crushed if anything happened to you. I would have gone to Stormwind and torn the entire city to rubble just to find you." 

"Really?"

"Varian himself would have been afraid of my anger."

Darguni hopped into Bradly's bed. "Yeah! Momma would have saved you in the end!"

"No matter what it takes." She kissed the top of his head. "Now, come on you two, lights out." 

"Yes, Momma." They said in unison. They got under their blankets and waited for their kisses before closing their eyes. 

"I'm closing your doors, and you better not open them unless it's an emergency."

"Yes, Momma."

She blew the lights out and closed the first door, before walking upstairs and heading out that one. She closed it behind her and walked to her bedroom. 

Jordan and Grogek were playing cards on the bed, while Tulani sat at her desk, sewing.

"Don't your fingers ever get tired?' She eyed Tulani.

"Do yours?" She grinned.

"Ok, I deserved that one."

"So, did you invite him into the family yet?" Jordan pulled a card from the pile and hissed. 

"Ugh, no. He is NOT part of the family." She sighed. "He saved Bradly, this much is true. He's earned my gratitude and my affection, but he's not family... he's more like a pet."

"Savage is a pet, and he is family." Grogek commented. He tossed down his hand. "HAH! Top that."

Jordan smacked his forehead. "DAMN, I was so close." He tossed down his cards. 

She bent down and scratched Savage's belly. 

"I win the pot." Grogek grinned. 

Jordan snorted. "You always win the damned pot."

"What were you betting?" She frowned. 

"Your ass." Grogek grinned.

She stopped and stared for the longest time before bursting into laughter. "You guys are awful." She strolled over to the bed.

Without warning, Jordan grabbed her by the arm and pulled her down. She fell forward with an "oof" and sent the cards scattering. She was laid across the bed. One man's hands went for her slick wet folds; the other went to playing with her asshole. She groaned. 

"And I get the best seat in the house." Tulani grinned. 

Elunara pulled up one knee on to the bed to allow them easier access. She gripped the edge of the bed with her hands and panted into the bed cover. Despite what they said, Grogek's fingers were buried into her pussy, and it was Jordan's finger that explored her ass. She shuddered and shook against them. 

Jordan slid off the bed in front of her and tugged out his dick. She wrapped her lips around him, and adjusting her neck, let him fuck her mouth. He put his hands on her back and shoulders.

Grogek spread her pussy lips out and grinned at Tulani. "Want a lick before I go?"

She waved him off. "Not tonight. Thank you, though."

He shrugged and got into position before shoving himself into her tight wetness. He groaned, grabbing her hips as he began to thrust in and out of her. The motion made her pump against Jordan. He groaned and shivered. He came directly in to her throat, and she swallowed him down. Grogek shivered and filled her up. He pulled himself free and tugged her upwards. Once she was standing against him, he pressed himself into her ass. She arched against him and groaned.

Jordan grinned. "Gee, this looks familiar."

Grogek grinned as he gripped Elunara's arms. "Yeah, except this time I don't have to tell you what to do." 

"It was more of a permission thing at the time." Jordan buried himself into her soft wet center. 

He cupped and played with her breasts as he shoved himself in and out of her. He teased and taunted the nipples, before leaning down and sucking on them. In one hand she gripped Grogek's arm, in the other she held Jordan's. She gasped in pleasure. She shifted her head and shoulders and kissed Grogek, mating her mouth with his. Jordan pulled on her chin and brought her mouth to his own. In one hand he held her breast, in the other her hip. Grogek mimicked the position. They both exploded inside of her near the same time. 

She groaned and leaned back. "I do love when you tag team me." 

Jordan snorted. "Wouldn't that require us to switch out?"

With a roll of her eyes, she sighed. "Double team? Is that better?"

Grogek licked her neck. "That would be the more accurate term." 

"Ugh to both of you."



For the Whored Ch. 091



She opened her eyes to the darkness. She knew that sound. That sound was as familiar to her as her own breath. She looked down at Tulani, peacefully dreaming. She frowned and climbed out of bed. Making her way into the hallway, she frowned down at the living room. Bradly was standing in the center of the room, clutching his blanket, whimpering. 

She made her way downstairs. "Sweetie? What's wrong?" 

"You... you were gone... you couldn't save me." 

"Oh, sweetie, come here." Elunara wrapped her arms around him. "It's ok, I'm here." She pulled him onto the couch with her. 

He climbed up into her lap and laid his head on her shoulder. She grabbed the blanket and wrapped it around them. "I don't want to go back."

"I'm here, baby. Don't you worry, I'm here." She wrapped her arms around him. "You are mine; now and forever." 

Elunara groaned and shook her head. Her neck was killing her. Blinking groggily, she opened her eyes and found everyone staring at her. "What?"

"We're sorry." Tulani grinned. "But you were just so adorable; we didn't want to wake you up."

She looked down at Bradly curled up in her lap, still asleep. "Oh."

Darguni ran out in a panic. "Momma I can't find..." He giggled. "Oh."

Bradly rubbed his eyed. "Momma?"

"Yeah, yeah get off me. I have stuff to do."

"Sorry, Momma." Bradly said sheepishly, as he slid off her lap. 

She put her fingers under his chin. "Never apologize for a nightmare. Now, get dressed and go do whatever it is kids should be doing."

"COME ON! Come on, go, Lydia, GO! PUSH it! You're going for strength and endurance this round, go, press it; attack the ground like you goddamned MEAN it! That's the way! That's my girl! Go! Don't lag it; don't let it get to you, endurance! Yeah, that's the way, don't lose form! You're rounding the final lap! GO, I WANT SPEED, GIVE IT TO ME! And.... STOP!" Elunara clapped her hands. "New course record, by about ten seconds. 

Lydia bent over, gasping for air. 

Elunara put the water in her hand. "Remember to drink slow, but drink it." Elunara rubbed her back. "That's my girl. Now, walk it out."

Lydia nodded and chugged the first bit, then started sipping. "I did good?"

"Very good." Elunara brushed her hair out of her face. "Once you've walked out the tension, you can sit and we'll work on your legs.

"Ok."

Elunara walked back to the side edge, where Linda was standing with a group of people.

She had her hands over her mouth and tears were streaming down her face. "Oh, my baby runs so well."

Elunara pointed at her. "If you cry on me again, I WILL hit you. Don't think I won't."

"I'm sorry. I just thought I'd never see the day." She wiped her eyes on a handkerchief. She gestured back. "These are my friends, some of the other parents. They've been hearing about your training on the yard, but haven't come out so far to watch." 

"That's nice." She turned away. "LYDIA!"

Lydia jogged over and sat in the chair. 

Elunara sat down in front of the girl and began working and massaging the muscles of her leg.

"Mom! Did you see? Did you see what I did?"

"Yes I did, baby." 

"I'm not a baby." Lydia pouted.

Elunara raised an eyebrow. "I'm not either, but that's what Jordan calls me because he loves me."

Lydia flushed. "Oh. Oh, I'm sorry Momma, I didn't mean it." She looked up.

"Legs better?" 

She flexed her feet. "Oh, much better Miss Elunara."

Elunara patted her legs. "Then go rest up before everyone gets here and we start training again."

Lydia slid out of the chair and jogged to the platform. 

Linda stared. "You did that so subtly, so casually, that she hardly realized you just snapped her head off." Linda put a hand to her chest. "Yet, I feel so grateful for it."

"I am finding that kids do best when they think you think they're adults. You don't have to actually do so." She laughed. "Pluuus, I have this sneaking feeling that she has a small crush on Jordan." Elunara stood up and looked around. "This chair was put here to help Lydia when she got tired. Now, she doesn't really use it, except when I massage her legs."

"You're always so ridiculously kind; I just don't know what to do with myself." Linda sniffled. 

"Now there's something I don't hear that often." Elunara laughed. "The most common phrase heard around me is "mean as a snake"."

"That's all I've heard." Mumbled one of the other parents. 

"I'm actually quite proud of that one." She ran her fingers through her hair. "I don't like when people are nice to me, it just makes me feel weird."

"Then why do you gather so many lovers?" Jordan stepped in behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist. 

"Because I'm insatiable, remember?"

He kissed her shoulder. "That much is true." 

"Jordan, this is Linda, Lydia's mother." 

He held out a hand. "Thomas's a good soldier."

Linda shook his hand. "You two sure are affectionate."

"Oh, we have to be, or poor Elunara would starve." He added dramatically.

She shoved his face. "Oh, leave off, you."

He laughed and let her go. 

"What does that mean?" Someone asked.

"It's a private joke." She rolled her eyes. 

"Well, I'm sure they've heard the term "man eater" before. You just take it rather literally."

"Don't you get jealous?" Another asked.

"Of what? I'm already the second husband. Getting jealous of anything Elunara does would just be hurting myself."

"SECOND?"

"I have two husbands, a wife, two kids, and two cats." She tapped a finger to her chin. "Gee, at this rate, I'm going to need a second wife, just to complete the set." 

"Sorry, I'm already taken." Zelinnia grinned.

"Ah, there's my girl." Elunara kissed her temple. "How's Renwa?"

"Abigail here decided to pitch a fit for sunlight in the middle of the meeting. He's having to take his own notes." She rocked her head back and forth. "Knowing HIM, he'll be cussing and swearing at my other notes."

"Still haven't taught him your system?"

"I never can." She sighed. "Hello Jordan." 

"Heya, Zel. I don't suppose I could hold the baby?"

She handed her over with a sigh. "She's getting big. I'm going to have to get a stroller made."

"I have mine somewhere." 

"That'd be lovely."

Jordan gave a soft sigh. "I kinda like the babies."

Elunara rolled her eyes. "You want a baby; you're going to have to find some random chick to knock up." She shrugged. "If she's hot enough, maybe she can be my... uh, what number are we on?"

"Four? Zelinnia knitted her brow. "Or are we counting that other orc too?"

"Not yet we're not." Elunara grumbled. 

Jordan laughed. "No, Elunara. You are the only woman for me." He kissed her temple. "I'm not sure I could look at any other woman the same way again." He passed the baby back to Zelinnia. "I have to go back to it." He pulled Elunara for a mouth searing kiss. "Later, Baby." And walked off whistling. 

Zelinnia laughed. "Every time Renwa does that to me, I wind up saying something horribly embarrassing. The man makes my brain go numb."

"It always pleases me to hear you both so happy." 

"Where is Tulani today?"

"In her studio."

"I'll go visit."

"Bye, little darling." 

Linda laughed. "I thought you said people being nice to you made you uncomfortable."

"Yes, but I know them. I've spent time with them, lived with them. I'm used to strangers just disliking me on principle. Hell, my own mother called me the worst thing to happen to Darnassus, before she chucked me out to live on my own."

Elunara looked over and took off running. Before anyone had realized what happened, she was kneeling down and checking Lydia for injuries. "Girl, that was dumb."

"Ow..." 

She wiped the girl's tears. "Now you know, mind the edge." 

"I'm sorry, I just... I never got to dance like the other girls. And I had this big stage..." She sniffled.

Elunara sighed and brushed the girl's hair out of her face. "I understand how that goes. But you've still got to mind the edge, ok?"

"Yeah."

Elunara stood the girl up and brushed her off. "I know that had to hurt, and I know you're embarrassed, but shake it off, and move on. OK?"

"Yes, Miss Elunara."

Linda finally caught up. "What happened?"

"She fell off the platform, but she's ok."

"You were over here so fast; I never even saw her fall."

"Hey, kid."

"Yes, Miss Elunara?"

"Come with me. I have an idea. You too, Linda."

"Hey Tulani, I have a project for you."

Tulani and Zelinnia looked over. "Yes, my love?"

"This kid needs a new pretty party dress. You up for designing one?"

Tulani gathered her things. "Of course." 

"Cool. You... do whatever it is you do. I'm going to get my board." Elunara stepped out, finished her thought and stuck he head in. "My commission." She went for her board. 

Linda walked into the Library and just stared. "But, why?"

"Girl gets a new set of legs; she should get a new dress to go with it. Besides, what else is she going to wear to the party?"

"What party?"

"The one I'm working on. Though, Ina is better at this stuff, maybe I should get her..." Elunara tapped on her chin and continued to work. 

"You make my brain hurt."

"Renwa would agree with you whole-heartedly."

"I..." The papers on the wall caught her attention. She began to slowly make her way around the room, studying each piece. "Did you do all this?"

"And every book in here."

"Holy..." 

"My entire life is in these books. Every moment of every day that I chose to be drawing, is in these books. My family, except for the kids, have read these books. I've let my kids read certain parts because it was important, but I kept them from the nastier things. When they're old enough, they can read them too. I have these pictures all over the house, those the boys' room is more animals and plant life drawings."

"Can I?"

"Knock yourself out."

Linda pulled out a book and opened it up, flushing at what she found. She continued to flip through out of curiosity. She stuck the book back on the shelf and went for another random one. "You really leave nothing to the imagination."

"I report in my books the same way I reported to the SI:7 detailed, concise and with as little emotion as possible."

"And you're sure the children haven't been in here?" She flipped through another one.

"It's locked when I'm not in residence. Someone broke in some time ago and destroyed my books. It took me a stupid amount of time to fix it all."

"How sad."

"The bastard wound up getting Jordan killed, and Jordan's death unlocked a strange power inside of me."

"Jordan died?"

Elunara got up and plucked a book off of the shelf and opened it up. "He was shot in the face, that's why he has that scar." 

Linda sat down and began reading. "Oh, oh wow."

Elunara chuckled. "Both of my husbands have been murdered in front of my face. And in both situations, I called on a power I didn't know I had, and brought them back from the nether. I will do anything for my family, no matter how crazy. Forgive me if I saw a little girl struggling, and had to do something to about it. My boys were trying so hard to help her, that I had to do so myself." Elunara said quietly. 

"And I am endlessly grateful." Linda swallowed the rock in her throat. "And here she is, so excited to have a new dress. She used to never be excited about a dress fitting. She wanted thick heavy skirts to hide her legs. Fancy was out of the question, because she would be sitting in it all night." Linda stood up. "Forgive me" She left the room. 

Linda left with a bouncy child, excited about her dress. 

Tulani sighed and wrapped her arm around Elunara's waist. "You're a beautiful person, you know that, right?"

Elunara wrapped her arm around Tulani's back. "I've gone soft, shoot me."

Zelinnia laughed and wrapped an arm around Elunara's waist. "No can do. We need you."

Elunara tickled Zelinnia's hip. "I'm about to make a down payment on that commission I just ordered." She grinned. "Care to help me pay?"

Zelinnia grinned. "Well, it has been awhile, and Abigail is sleeping."

Elunara flipped her sign and closed the door. "Good answer."



For the Whored Ch. 092



Slowly but surely, she had more kids to add to her training routine. As word got out of the impending party for the children, Tulani found herself with several orders for new party dresses. Ina was having a field day party planning. 

Bradly folded his arms and grumped. "This is stupid."

"Oh, hush, having a nice outfit for a nice party is a good thing." Elunara sighed.

"But it'll be dumb."

"Bradly, you're being dumb." Elunara rolled her eyes. "This is NOT Stormwind, this is NOT going to be one of those stupid stuffy deals back in Stormwind. It's just an excuse for the girls to wear something frilly and pretend they're not trapped in one of the roughest worlds we've ever faced. You can be silly for a night." She shook her head. "Besides, I only organized this stupid party so that Lydia could show off her legs. She just wants to dance at a party. The only little girls were mean to her back home and she had to sit all by herself. Do you want to be mean to her and not attend her party?"

Bradly sighed. "No, Momma." 

"Then put the stupid outfit on and get your ass out there." She put her hands on her hips. "Besides, how else am I going to show you my warrior goddess outfit?" She turned and walked out, patting Darguni on the head. 

"You know, you never did get the blood stains out of that." Grogek raised an eyebrow as he looked at her over his book. 

"They give it character. You know I like character."

"How come Papa doesn't have to go?" Darguni frowned. 

Elunara eyed Grogek. "Valid point. All the parents are going to be there, you should make an appearance."

He sighed and sat up. "Fine. For a little while." 

"Good man." Jordan grinned. "Let's go to a silly party." He scrubbed his hand on Bradly's hair. 

It turned out, that everyone who could toss on a nice outfit showed up to enjoy a party. They had all gathered in the center of town, around the fountain. The kids were running around their parent's legs, and anyone who could play an instrument set up and began to play for the crowd. 

"You certainly come up with the best ideas." Zelinnia grinned. 

Renwa laughed. "Don't tell her that, it'll just go to her head."

"See, the best thing about our wedding dresses, is we can use them however we want." Elunara grinned. 

"The blood stains just add to your look." Zelinnia took a drink. 

"That's what I said."

Renwa eyed the crowd. "I've made a point of letting people know this was your idea."

She sighed. "Oh, don't do that. People will think I'm likable or something."

"Given the fact you did this for a disabled child?" Renwa murmured.

"She isn't any more." 

"Again, thanks to you." 

"Wouldn't matter." Zelinnia gave her a cat smile. "Your Linda has been telling them all as well."

"BAH!"She stalked off and made her way to the musicians. "Hey, you do requests?"

"Sure." 

She began to sing. Following her usual habit on the stage, she sang for quite awhile, keeping to the happier jaunty tunes, along with some of the sillier antics. The musicians were having a field day trying to keep up with her. 

He found his way through town, nursing his injuries. Listening for the sound of people, he found the town square decorated up, the people of the town dressed in finery and flippery. She was standing in the center, commanding her audience. She sang and she danced, and she called for the enjoyment. She grasped hands with a small child and danced around. Had he not already known he loved her, he would have fallen in love with her over this. His goddess of war, wearing garments splattered with blood, was dancing with a small child, bring joy to her face. 

She spotted him, but didn't flinch. She made her excuses to slip away. Grogek noticed her direction and she nodded to him.

"Well, this is a familiar scenario. Me in this outfit, you interrupting."

"Forgive me my goddess, we had just returned. I had to see you."

She put her hands on his chest and poured her energy into him. "Why do you never arrive to me healed? Are your healers so unsatisfactory?"

"No... I'm usually so impatient to see you, that I escape their hands."

She sighed and brushed her fingertips under his chin. "If you died on the way to me, what point would that serve?"

He let out a breath he was unaware he was holding. "It brings my heart joy to know you worry for me." Timidly he brought his face closer to hers. When she bent upwards, he wrapped his hand around her hip and kissed her with passion. 

She broke the contact and brushed her fingers on his cheek. "You've arrived at a bad time. This party is important in its frivolity. Since you saved my Bradly, you may stay. But I will not speak of war... that will be for tomorrow morning." She grabbed his hand and pulled him forward. 

Everyone stopped and stared. She led him to the center and pushed him into place. He stood there completely bewildered.

"Everyone, this is Charnak. You may have seen him skulking around the edges of town. He currently leads my orc army that waits outside the barrier for my command. He has been working tirelessly to earn my favor and has proven his loyalty to me. Recently, someone tried to kidnap my Bradly and take him away from me. Charnak hunted the bastard and returned my child to me. I suggest you all treat him favorably."

"Barbara tried her shit again?" Someone asked. 

"Yeah, she hired a man to take him from me."

"Goddamn, Varian should do something about that bitch."

"A rather angry letter has been sent. I await his response. In any event, that bitch won't take MY son!"

The crowd cheered. "Thank the Gods for your assistance, Charnak." Someone cried. The crowd cheered again.

"Now that THAT's out of the way, we have a party to enjoy!" She tossed her hands in the air. 

Charnak just sat on the fountain in awe. 

"You may stay there if you wish." She stepped forward again and began to sing. 

He sat and listened to her for the longest time before she stopped and ran over to the refreshment table. He got up and followed her. "My beautiful goddess, I feel... out of place here. I am going to return to my people."

She brushed her fingers under his chin and he closed his eyes in pleasure. "Take care. I will see you tomorrow." 

He started to kiss her again, just for the sensation, but he spotted Grogek and Jordan watching him. He backed away and scurried out of sight.

"I used to be like that." Jordan smirked. 

Elunara grinned. "I have trained him well. Perhaps..." She ran a finger over her lips. 

"What are you thinking, my love?" Grogek brushed his hand down her back.

"Tomorrow night, south orchard."

Grogek grinned. "Breaking him in right, then?"

"You bet your sweet ass."

Jordan laughed. "I'm going to back out of that one; perhaps another night." He kissed her temple. 

"You just don't want to have to declare your penis again." She grinned at him. 

"Damned right."

Gerald wandered over. "You throw a hell of a party, Nara."

"The fuck do you keep calling me that?"

"Cause it annoys you." He grinned. 

She rolled her eyes. "South Orchard, tomorrow night. I'll be expecting company." She grinned.

"The orc?"

She gave him a toothy grin. 

"Oh, man."

"Aren't you married?" Jordan snorted. 

"Aren't you?" Gerald grinned back. 

"Two orcs banging a Night Elf, won't that be something to see?" She licked her lips. 

"As the Night Elf getting banged, you get entirely too much enjoyment out of the spectacle." 

"I like em big and juicy, who can blame me?"

"How do you explain Jordan?" Gerald jerked his thumb back. 

"HEY!" 

Elunara laughed. "He's delicious; a little sweeter than most. It's a trait I've been heavily investigating."

Gerald slapped his face. "Gods, I did NOT want to know that!"

"How's Chrissy anyway?"

"She's around here somewhere." 

"I'm here." She blushed. 

"How are things going, little dove?" Elunara grinned. 

"Quite well, thank you." 

Gerald wrapped his arm around the woman in an absent gesture. 

"Swing by in the next few days, I got a new design you'll want to try."

"OOooo really?" 

Gerald rolled his eyes. "I swear, you never stop, do you?"

Elunara snorted. "I got you what you wanted, and now you're rude to me. I see how it is."

Chrissy giggled. "Don't listen to him; he worships the ground you walk on." 

"Chrissy!" Gerald hissed. He blushed as everyone laughed. 

"See, it's not so bad when people like you." Linda smiled, pretty in her new dress. 

"Hey Linda, nice dress."

"Your Tulani does amazing work."

"Linda, this is Gerald, he was my spotter in the SI:7, and his wife, Chrissy."

"Elunara put us together." Chrissy grinned. "Isn't that nice?" 

"It seems Elunara does all sorts of nice things." Linda smiled. "She gave my baby the use of her legs." She wiped a tear. "Dammit, I swore I wouldn't cry again." She wiped her eyes. 

"Ugh, Gods. Make her stop." Elunara grumbled as she drank her punch. 

"Oh, stop being a snit." Jordan laughed. 

"What's the matter?" Chrissy bit her lip.

Gerald shook his head. "Elunara has spent her entire life cultivating a reputation for being a mean ass bitch that will slit your throat and forget you ever existed. This "giving" side of her makes her cranky. Which doesn't matter, because we're all utterly terrified of her anyway." 

"You're only saying that because you don't want me to rip your balls off."

"You're damned fucking skippy." He shook his head. "I've been getting quite a lot of use out of them now, thank you very much." He pointed at her. "You left a scar."

"Oh, it's tiny." She waved her hand. 

"MOMMA!" They called in unison. 

"Momma, come sing again!"

"Yeah!" 

"Alright, alright. My audience awaits!"

She stretched out as she made her way down through the barrier. Last night was practically a feeding frenzy of good will and all that yadda yadda. With such an unexpected outcome, maybe she'd do it a little more often. Walking down to the challenge ring, she saw Charnak standing on a platform barking orders. She watched him with interest. 

"I guess I only just noticed that you have quite a beautiful body yourself." She grinned when he almost fell off in shock. 

"My Goddess! You're here." 

"I was just watching you work. Not bad I'd have to say." She ran a finger down his arm. "I see you had your wounds tended to."

He ran his hands down her arms. "How I longed for you last night."

She cocked her head to the side. "I have to wonder, did you find a substitute pussy, or did you sit in that giant throne you made for me and pump your dick?" She gripped his arms. "Or perhaps you just humped your bed, imaging me in the soft furs." She purred. 

"I..."

"I think I'll go with the bed..." She whispered.

"How did you..." He gasped, and his face went red. "My goddess knows all." He knelt as she grinned. 

She ran her fingers over his shoulder. "Rise, my champion. You shall only bow to me when I am pissed."

"It is my greatest honor to stand by your side." He scrambled to get up.

"I would not be offended if you found someone to suit you while I am occupied. Though I will admit that if you do so against her will, it is also against MY will. I value women above men in all things."

"I couldn't possibly..."

She looked back and ran her fingers under his chin. "As you would. But, should you chose to take on such a person, I would not find offense. Remember my champion, I am the goddess of sex. I believe you should find some enjoyment beyond my own." 

"I..." He swallowed "I'm not sure."

She turned and put a hand to his chest. "Your faithfulness to me is pleasing." She stood up on her toes and brushed her lips against his. 

He pressed down and wrapped his hands around her hips. Her fingers trailed back across his neck and into his hair. He pulled her into his body, taking her mouth for his own. Several orcs stopped and just stared. 

She pulled her face away from his and licked her lips. Running a finger on her swollen lips, she grinned. "Oh yes, you missed me very much." She breathed. 

"Come to my bed." He begged quietly.

"That was my next stop." She winked. 

It wasn't much longer before she was sitting in the ridiculous throne, directing his mouth. Pumping his fingers in and out of her, he drove her up and over. When she clamped down on his fingers, he pulled them out and replaced them with his dick. He slid a slick finger into her ass and groaned. 

"I love you." He groaned as he released himself into her. "I love you." He whispered into her ear. He wrapped her legs around his waist as he continued to slide in and out in a soft rhythm. Leaning back, he fell and pulled her down on top of him.

With a giggle, she landed, his dick still in her. He began to pump her hips up and down. "I could never love another woman like I love you." He slammed her hips down on him and groaned. 

She rubbed her hands on his jaw. "You should know... I am no longer capable of children. Darguni is the only child to be born from my body. Should you ever want a sire..." She shook her head. "I cannot give it."

"You..."

"When Darguni was to be born, he was too big. They weren't certain they could save me. So I slit my own belly open. The later, when..." She shook her head. "A zealot bastard took me. When I refused his advances, he threatened to kill the Blood Elf. I gave myself to him to save her. I didn't want his putrid hands to stain me, but I had to save her and used the only choice I had at the time. When I found out that I might be pregnant from the encounter... I ripped my own body apart. I took my dagger and I cut it out. I have nothing to have children with."

"Oh, Gods." He put his hands on either side of her face. "My goddess of war and mercy. To save another's life, you gave up your own body, and a chance at future children." He sighed. "How noble, how... aggressive." He laughed. "What a puzzle you are! To destroy your own body to make a point!" He laughed and rubbed his hands across her belly. "And to have healed so well..."

"Even then, the healers called it a miracle of insanity." She grinned. "Would you like to see something really crazy?"

"What is that, vicious little she-wolf?" He grinned. 

She flexed her hand and summoned her dagger. She dragged it across her stomach, causing blood to drip down her belly. He gasped in horror. Releasing the dagger, she rose her hands in the air and closed her eyes. She focused on the healing energy. 

With a grin she looked back at him. "Yes, I will destroy my own body just to prove a point."

He ran his hands across her belly. "Amazing."

"Most of the time, my body does it without me knowing. Just to speed up the process, I focused it." 

"If I were on my feet, I would surely drop to my knees."

She stretched out and smiled, before standing up. "It helps when I have a crowd of worshipful followers. Last night's party was an all you can eat buffet of loving energy." She laughed. "Tonight's meal will be far more substantial." 

"Tonight?" He had hope in his voice. 

"Yes, there's a particular ritual that Grogek and I do..." She shrugged. "Anyway, the moons always add that touch of beauty to it."

"You'll be outside?" He whispered.

She pulled her clothes on. "How else will I get what I need?" She shook her head. "Anyway, you must tell me what spoils you brought for me." She grinned. 

His goddess was being pretty vague, but it didn't take much for him to understand that he would have to see for himself. He found his way into the orchard and snuck to the center clearing. Grogek had her against a tree, his face buried in her soft wet folds. He licked his lips and watched in envy as Grogek drove her completely crazy. 

Grogek grinned as he buried his fingers in her. 

"Ah, no one can compare." She groaned. "He's here." She whispered. 

He tugged his fingers out of her and she dropped her legs. She turned over and purred at him. He buried himself into her soft folds and pumped in and out. He bent forward and went for that soft spot in her neck. She closed her eyes and gasped in appreciation. He slammed into her, over and over again, driving her up and over. 

"I know you're there." She peered through the darkness. "Come forward."

Licking his lips, he stepped out into the clearing. He knelt on one knee. "Forgive me my goddess."

"You know, that puts you at the perfect height." She strolled forward and put a foot on his knee. "Please your goddess." 

Eagerly, Charnak buried his face in her slick wet folds. 

"Are you serious?" One guy commented.

Several hands clamped over his mouth. "SHH!"

Grogek stepped behind her and began to play with her breasts, licking that sensitive spot on her neck. She groaned and leaned back, gripping Charnak's hair. She gasped and shivered under their touches. She tugged on his hair. "Stand, and fuck me." She growled. 

"Yes, my goddess." He stood up and shoved off his pants. 

Grogek lifted her and helped slid her down on to Charnak's dick. Grogek pressed himself into her ass. With a grin, he put a hand on Charnak's shoulder. "We fuck her together." Holding her around the waist, they slid her up and down and their dicks, as they bucked their hips. 

She arched her back and growled. "Yessss, give me more." She bent forward and bit Charnak on the shoulder. She rode him like the possessed, Grogek trying to keep up from the back. With the sensation of pressing against each other, they both filled her near the same time. She groaned as they both slid free. 

She walked and stretched her body. "Now that's what I call tasty. Why didn't I think to get a second Orc dick before?"

Grogek laughed as he cleaned himself off. "Because none other would put up with you?" He grinned. 

She gave him a toothy grin back. "You only get to say that because I love you."

"Brother, you are fine with sharing her?"

"If I wasn't, we wouldn't be where we are." He tugged Elunara into his lap. "Besides, no one tells Elunara no. No one. It was get used to it, leave, or make the best of it. Now, it turns me on to see her fuck someone else. In fact..." 

Elunara crawled across the distance, slinking her body. She got up on her knees and slipped her mouth over Charnak's sticky dick. He groaned and leaned his head back, grabbing her hair. With a chuckle, Grogek grabbed her hips and pulled her up, slipping easily in. Charnak couldn't believe what he was seeing or feeling. When he finally released again in her mouth, she licked him, but let it dribble down her mouth. She discretely barfed it all up. 

Gold changed hands on the top of the hill. 

He collapsed to his knees and stared at her. 

"Goddess of sex, remember?" She licked her fingers. "Not half bad in taste. In any event, this gives me a wonderful charge. I feed of the men, remember that." She tossed her arms wide, showing her golden wings. "The battle charges me, the sex feeds me, and the mercy... is just a release of excess energy. I could decimate you and your little army." She grinned. "But you have earned my favor, so instead, I will keep you." She ran her fingers under his chin and leaned in close. "You are one of my chosen champions. Be proud of your place. Perhaps I shall join you on your next assignment, so you can see me when I am the most furious. In fact... the Draenei are having issues with those pesky demons again. Let me show you..." She brushed a kiss across his lips. "We ride in two mornings. Prepare my army." 

She stepped away to Grogek. Charnak looked up at her in desirable supplication. She looked over her shoulder. "Well? Go." 

Charnak scrambled to get his pants on before he ran away. 

She watched him go with a grin. She licked her lips. "I guess I have to prepare to go on a mission." 

"I wish I could see it myself." Grogek grinned. 

"Come, my beloved. I wish to head to bed." 




For the Whored Ch. 092



"With pleasure."



For the Whored Ch. 093



"But, MOMMA!" 

Them speaking in unison was way more annoying than adding to each other's sentences. "There's no discussion. I'll only be gone a few days. I have to prove to some numbskulls that I really am their warrior goddess. A leader sucks at his job if he refuses to stand with his followers." 

"But you've never been gone before." Bradly had tears in his eyes.

"If you cry on me, I'm not going to give you hugs before I leave." She packed her board and her bags. 

"But the town won't be safe without you." Darguni pouted.

"Oh, dear Gods, your dads aren't pansies. Hell, Renwa himself is a battle hardened Admiral. There are hundreds of men and women here who are willing to protect you. If you're SO scared, hang out at the training yard all day. Maybe you'll learn you something." 

"But..."

"There are times when you have to do things, even if you don't like it. I'll try to bring you back a demon horn. Those are always cool. Maybe I'll yank an entire skull. We'll just see."

"I still don't see why you have to go."

"Because I'm the biggest badass there ever was, and I have to teach some silly little Orcs how the fuck to fight." She slung her pack over her back. "I'll be gone a few days." She kissed both of their heads. "If you can't live without me for a few days, how will you ever survive to adulthood?" She shook her head. 

Opening the front door, her legs were wrapped around. She looked down and sighed. "Lydia, not you too..."

"Bring me back a souvenir?" 

"Sure thing, sweetie." She stepped out and waved a hand at Savage. "Not today, love muffin. You stay, protect the boys. Make sure Yoona behaves." He started yowling. "Elune save me." She slapped her forehead. 

"Take the cat." Grogek shook his head. "He might come in handy. Yoona's been doing well; I'd say she's ready to try a hand at protecting the boys."

"Oh fine, come on you big baby." She sighed as Savage stopped his yowling and fell in step with her once again. "I'll never hear the end of that one." 

Stepping outside the barrier, she was pleased with Charnak's organization. She climbed up on the platform beside him. 

He tugged her forward and kissed her, running his hands on her hips. "My Goddess, I hope our preparations are to your liking." 

"It's looking good." She eyed Savage, who had somehow climbed up on to the platform. He flopped down beside her and gave a purring acknowledgement. She rolled her eyes. She watched the scene with interest as Charnak gave orders and organized his troops. 

When they were ready, he smiled to her. "I hoped we could share a mount?"

"Nope. Got my own." She hopped on Savage's back and he leapt nimbly off the platform. He roared in pleasure and she rubbed his side. "This is what you've been waiting for, isn't it?" 

Charnak climbed down and got on his wolf. He marveled at her. "You ride without a saddle or reins?"

"You betcha."

A day into their ride out, Charnak stepped out of the small tent to take a leak. He was stopped by one of his officers. 

"Sir, I'd like to speak with you."

"Follow." Charnak pulled himself out and let go with a sigh. 

"Sir, it's just... the others are a little concerned about our... guest."

"How so?" He stuffed himself back in his pants.

"Well, sir, the fact of the matter is, we all know she's unstoppable in the ring, but the ring isn't battle. This is far more dangerous. The others are worried that..." He sighed and rubbed a hand over his head. "There's rumor that she's pulled out your teeth, and that you'll spend the whole battle concerned for her safety. We just don't have the man power to keep her safe, or prevent her death."

Charnak grabbed the man's shoulder. "The Goddess of War demands battle. She will prove to all of you that she is worthy of the title. And if she dies? Well, then she wasn't really a goddess, now WAS she?"

"Y-yes sir!" He turned and ran.

Elunara slipped her hands over his shoulders and leaned against his back. "If you had answered any differently, then I would have slit your throat. A worried lover is no use to me. Come, I think you deserve a reward for that."

She stood atop the hill, frowning at the death and destruction the demons had wrought. She slipped off of Savage. "Give me a line."

Charnak barked his orders and the crowd of warriors shifted to allow a path. "Well, my goddess? I give you right to call battle."

She held up a hand to him and closed her eyes. Her fingers crushed through Savage's fur. She focused all her rage, anger and hurt. She filled herself up with pain, the rage filling her limbs. In order to make the best impression, she knew what she had to do, and prayed that she would stop before she tapped herself out. She flexed her hand and held her sacred dagger. 

She opened her eyes and her nostrils flared. As far as she was concerned, the demons had taken her beloved Grogek, her precious Jordan and her sweet Tulani. The demons had taken her family and they were after her boys. Releasing Savage, she took off running. Savage bounded in beside her, refusing to leave her side. She took the first flying leap at a demon. 

"NOW!!!" She screamed into the air, before she lost herself in the carnage. 

Those who witnessed her rage often only saw a blur of purple and a flicker of silver. She brought them down in an endless stream of rage and anger. Many Orcs openly stopped and stared, and some were terrified, but by time they realized what carnage she had wrought, they were flooding her with their admiration and worship. The more impressed they were, the more energy she had to burn. 

His officer found him in battle. "Charnak... what have you brought us?"

"My Goddess of War!" He cried proudly. "And she favors ME with her affection!" 

"She would make a fine wife." The man nodded.

Charnak shook his head. "My goddess will not be hindered by such trivial things. She is already wife to Grogek, and wife to two others, Tulani and Jordan. I am satisfied for now. Perhaps I can earn more favor..." He cleaved the skull of a demon. 

"You... wait, she is married and yet she lies with you?"

"Fascinating isn't it? But she has a hidden role... she is also the goddess of sex. ALL men bow to her. If she finds them favorable..." He cleaved a smaller demon in two. "The she will have them. She commands a legion of men. We are but one small army of hers."

Elunara made her way to the demonic leader. "MINE! YOU WILL NOT HAVE THEM!!" She screamed into the air. She began to hack away at the body of the demon, carving chunks out of its screaming body. When it finally died to her blows, she stood over its body. "VENGENCE IS MINE!!!"

The crowd roared. She released the energy and leaned heavily on Savage. "Clean it up! Bring me their corpses!" She climbed on his back and rubbed his side. "Good boy. Mama needs a rest." He gave her a purring chuff. She looked at the darkening sky. She had been at it for hours. With a wince she looked at her hip. Oh goody, a new scar.

Charnak rode up to her and jumped off his mount. "My Goddess, that was magnificent!" He went down on one knee. 

She reached out and grabbed his shirt. "I'm hungry, feed me." She pulled him into her face. Savage let out an annoyed growl. "Hush, mama's hungry." She slid off his back and proceeded to make a meal out of Charnak. When her energy got a boost, she released him and stood up. She was surrounded by Orcs, every last one of them radiating delicious energy at her. 

She held up her hands and sprouted her wings. "MY WARRIORS! YOUR LOVE FEEDS YOUR GODDESS!" She took a deep breath as it poured out to her. "I think I might orgasm." She murmured to no one. She reached down to Charnak and pulled him to his feet. Positioning him at her side she held up his hand. "Thank your leader for bringing you to me. This army has shown great ferocity! I am most pleased!" Not sure if it would work, she cast her hands forward and let the energy spill from her body and wrapped them in a euphoric haze. Unwilling to over tax herself, she ended the channel into the buff. 

They went absolutely wild. She grinned at Charnak. 

"It has been an honor to fight side by side with my warriors! I am pleased to show them favor. Let's clean up this mess and head home with our trophies." She reached down and decapitated the demon's body. She grabbed it by a horn and dismissed her dagger. She dragged the skull off with her to a clean space. Sitting down, she put her feet on the skull. Savage lay down by her side and she stroked his soft fur. Laughing, she wiped his green jaws. 

"Ate a few, didn't you?" He flexed a paw and she inspected. "Aw, poor thing." She put her hand on his paw and channeled her energy into his body. He purred against her. 

"You even tend to your own mount."

She grinned up at Charnak. "He's my friend. The fact he doubles as a mount is just a bonus." 

He sat down beside her. "You have honored me with your treatment of me in front of my troops."

"You are one of my chosen champions. The rest must know this." 

He leaned over and pressed his lips to hers. Brushing his fingers down her cheek, he murmured. "My beautiful Goddess."

"Feed me, you are delicious." She murmured to him. 

He wrapped his arm around her and pressed his mouth against hers, causing her to lie back on the soft grass. His knee went between her thighs and his hand slipped up her shirt. She wrapped her arms around him neck and pulled him in to her. His hand gripped the grass as he pressed up against her. 

"Uh... sir?" The officer coughed. 

Charnak swore under his breath. He looked back and growled. "WHAT?"

"It's just that... I wasn't sure you wanted to do that... in public?"

She laughed. "I do it in public all the time." 

Charnak looked down at her in confusion. 

"I feed." She shrugged. She stretched. "Admiration of my body, or my prowess, is still feeding. In fact, I have a habit of arranging for a show." She tapped her chin. "Perhaps I should have told you that part already."

He chuckled. "You make my head hurt."

"Ok, I'm going to start keeping a tally of how many people have said that to me." She crossed her arms. "The ways of a goddess are not for mere mortals to comprehend." She eyed the soldier. "Besides, you're not half bad to look at yourself. What's your name?"

"Roka." 

"Hmm. I wonder how you taste." 

"Uhh..."

"You DID interrupt my dinner." 

"Forgive me for intruding!" He took off running. 

She started laughing so hard she was shaking. 

"You are so strange." Charnak grinned. 

"You know, if you're really that worried about it, we can either get that tent sent up, or we can get creative with pants placements." 

"Pant..."

"Yeah, I slip mine down far enough to expose the fun bits, you tug yourself out of your pants... I wrap my legs around your waist... you get the idea from there."

He just stared at her. 

"I'm pretty sure I've found every creative possible way to get a penis in me. All it takes is a willing participant." 

"You kill me." He laughed. 

"I once fucked a guy through a wall." She shrugged. 

He sat back and held his head. "What?"

With a sigh she sat up and stretched. "Ah well, the moment has passed. I guess I shouldn't have let my mouth get away from my brain." She shuddered. "Night will be on us soon, we should make camp while we handle the bodies. Did we have any dead?"

"Our casualties were limited thanks to you. I think last count was seventeen."

"We're down to about two hundred and fifty." She considered. 

"When word of your actions gets to our kind, that number will swell again."

"Goody." She muttered. 

"Something wrong?"

"As bolstering as their spirits are, it does hurt me that we lose so many. I shall escort their souls." 

"You humble me." 

"Forgive me if I don't trivial myself with the mundane tasks of setting up camp." She scratched Savage. Pulling out her board, she sat and sketched. When she finished her reports, she took two pages and wadded them up, tossing them over her shoulder. 

"Alright you two, sit your asses down. Your momma sent a note." Grogek grunted. "Says here she's made camp for the night, and they'll clean up the battle and head out tomorrow. Apparently she..." He eyed the page. "Went into a berserker rage state? That can't be right, she's not warrior class. Anyway, and took out half of the demon menace on her own. She's bringing home the perfect skull for her numbskulls."

The boys giggled at each other. 

"She loves you both, stop bouncing on the bed. Goodnight." He held out the sheet. 

"Cool!" They both breathed at the thought of the demonskull.

"Papa, can we sleep with you tonight?" Darguni looked away. 

"Oh, why the hell not?" He jerked his head. Grogek grinned as both boys scrambled to follow. 

As Charnak drove himself into his beloved with a grunt, he entertained thoughts of stealing her away. Of refusing to go back. Then the smarter parts of himself told him that he dare not anger her, he liked his limbs and other extremities where they were. He didn't even know where she hid the dagger, or how she summoned it. No, he'd be happy here.

She sighed and untangled herself from his arms. "I'm sorry, but I must go. I have spent days with you and it is time I go home. I need my husbands, I need my wife. Most of all, I need my children." She sighed and ran her fingers under his chin. "I will be back. Probably later today. I'm not certain. Please my champion. Do not ask for more than I can give you." 

She slipped out like a thief in the night. Creeping upstairs she looked in to Grogek first. Seeing the children snuggled up under Grogek's arm, her heart melted. She tiptoed into the room and put her hands on her hips. 

"I do believe I've been replaced. Perhaps I should go sleep with Yoona?"

The boys rubbed their eyes. "Momma!" They threw themselves at her. 

Tulani rubbed her head. "Not so lou- Elunara!" Tulani scrambled out of bed and wrapped her arms around her. 

Grogek laughed and pulled them all on the bed. 

Jordan slid down the hall and did his own scramble to get in the room. He threw himself at her. 

"GAH!" She laughed. "This is what I get for filling my house to capacity."



For the Whored Ch. 094



"You're insane." 

"Sir, I know what I'm doing. Charnak is not the type of man to be satisfied with my usual arrangements. I believe that if I find him... companionship, then I can redirect his obsession before it goes volatile. He's already reaching the point where I have to pry him off with a crowbar."

"Not good." Renwa sighed. 

"He's painfully like you."

"Like me?"

"Family man. He needs a wife and kid to make his life complete. I already told the bugger I couldn't work in the produce department, and he got all sad and despondent. I have to redirect him NOW, or he's going to do something truly stupid."

"I pray you know what you're doing."

She made her way through the barrier and looked around at the preparations they were making for her altar. The altar was Charnak's idea, which the people rallied around. She just added her own touches and design. She thought they were all out of their goddamned minds. 

Charnak jogged over to her. "My Goddess!" He made to kiss her but she held up a hand. He took the hand and kissed the palm of it. "Have I angered you?"

"Not a bit. I've just come to an interesting realization."

"And that is?"

She smiled and ran her fingers under his chin. "I wish to walk among our people. Without you."

"Without..."

She smiled. "Don't fret my pet. Something... calls to me. The nether speaks to me and the spirits of the dead whisper in my ear. I find I agree with them."

"What do they say?"

"I must move among the people. You, stay here, do what you know will please me." She brushed past him, arms linked behind her back. She deserved a freaking medal for her acting skills. 

She walked among the huts and tents, seemingly oblivious, but watching every face and body. Most bowed and showed her reverence, and a few still had a defiant edge to them. One woman seemed more timid than the rest. She went for it.

"You. What is your name?"

"Tylia, my goddess."

"Stand, girl. You don't look like the others."

She flushed. "I am Frostwolf. I was... cast out of my clan. Charnak saved me."

"What do you think of your leader?"

The flush darkened. "He is yours."

Elunara waved a hand. "I asked you a question. Give me an honest answer, or I'll drop you where you stand."

She stared down at her feet. "He is most handsome. He is rough and often angry, but sometimes I see softness in him. When he is with you..."

"Enough. You'll do just fine." 

"Ma'am?"

Elunara put her fingers under the woman's chin. "Would you like to be one of my chosen?"

"Chosen?"

Elunara licked her lips. "I will tell you the truth. I feed off the energies of the male species. It is difficult for me to find my food..." She hesitated as if trying to find the right word. "like a mate. Charnak is one of my chosen, and as such is special to me. I have chosen him to lead my army, and he serves well under my... lusts. But I cannot give him what he needs."

"What are you saying?" She whispered. 

"He needs a mate. One who would love him and allow him to submit to me when I desire it. I understand what a man like him would require for happiness; a mate to love him, to bear his children, to stand at his side as the leader of this great army. He would be yours in every way that counts." She whispered. 

Tylia licked her lips. "Mine?"

Elunara ran her hands down Tylia's arms. "I warn you now; this will be a hard road to walk. Charnak will not be happy at first. I shall warn him about being cruel to you. But, this is what is right. This is what he needs. He will grow to love you, cherish you, desire you, but you have to be willing to stick it out. And you must never lie to me, or I will find out. If he EVER hurts you, or is mean to you, I must know immediately. I will check in on you and encourage you in your path." Elunara brushed a hand across her forehead. "Will you be my chosen?"

"Yes." She breathed.

"Then, good luck my beauty. You will make a fitting bride for my chosen Champion." 

He barked out orders, but his heart wasn't in it. His goddess was wandering around alone, having refused his company. He sighed. Perhaps he had been a little clingy this morning. His heart soared when he spotted her purple hair and her elvish ears. He frowned when she walked out arm in arm with another woman. He furrowed his brow and jumped down from his perch. He knew she had a bit of a bent for women, perhaps that was it. 

"Ah, Charnak, the spirits have guided me true." She smiled. "Meet Tylia." 

"Uh, yeah. The Frostwolf." 

"Charnak, I have been guided by the nether and the spirits have spoken to me thus. I have found you a bride."

Charnak almost choked on his own tongue. "WHAT?"

Elunara ran her fingers under his chin. "Oh, my dear Charnak, Grand Champion, and favored chosen; I understand your heart more than you could possibly realize. I cannot give you things you so justly deserve; a loving wife, a warm home, and children to fill your life. You are my most humble servant, and I wished to bring you a gift. Tylia has been chosen by me to fulfill this wish. She is cherished to me, as she will become to you."

"But, I..."

"Do not think of her as a replacement for me. And do not think of her as a burden you must bear. Think of her as a gift from your goddess. She is to be loved, cherished and protected." Elunara linked the two's hands. "She is an extension of myself. She must be treated as beautifully as you have treated me." Elunara brushed the woman's hair back. "She already understands that you will still submit to me when I wish it. In fact, you can think of this like I do with my own husbands and wife. She is just another one of your family. The most important part. She will be your wife, and your marriage will bring me great joy." 

"I..." Charnak swallowed. "If this is your will, my goddess."

She leaned up. "I will even take the time to show you fascinating ways to pleasure her."

Tylia's eyes went wide and her blush deepened.

"Now, I will give you a few days to get to know one another before we go into the love making, but I have to say Charnak, that if I am satisfied with your affection towards this woman, it will go a long way towards me loving you." She kissed Tylia's cheek. "My Beauty, give him hell." She gave a cat grin before slinking off back home. 

"All I hope... is that I did not pile it on too thick. If he hurts that poor girl, I'll hate myself."

Grogek continued massaging her back, popping out some nasty kinks. "All told though, a Warsong and a Frostwolf? Pretty damned funny."

"Momma, can we sleep with you tonight?"

"Bradly, I love you, but what the hell is on your head?"

Tulani made a face. "Tell her."

"Me and Darguni used Momma Tuly's back door again,"

"and tripped over her latest dress,"

"and tore it. Now I gotta be a basket for the next three days."

"You got lucky. I have to be the dress stand." 

"What have I told you two about that door?"

"To not to." They sighed in unison.

"That door is there so that Tulani's clients don't have to work around my clients. Stay away from that damned door or I will lock it permanently." 

"I'm already having the blacksmith make us some locks. I'm just tired of it." Tulani snorted.

"Lydia saw me in a dress, and it was just humiliating." Darguni grumbled. 

"She laughed until she peed herself." Bradly snorted.

"Bradly laughed at her for it." 

"You did WHAT?" Elunara jolted upright, almost unseating Grogek. 

"Then she cried and ran home." Darguni nodded. "She refused to come out of her house for the rest of the day."

"Darguni!" Bradly swallowed and bit his lip. "I didn't mean to make her cry..."

"When your body fails you in public, it can be the most humiliating this you will EVER EXPERIENCE! I'd expect Darguni to do something like that, he missed a few years of manners, but YOU," She pointed at him. "should know better! Especially for a little girl that is trying SO hard to be mature!"

"Love, temper..." Grogek rubbed her shoulders. 

"I don't know why she's trying." He muttered. "She's fine the way she is."

"I should make you go apologize, but I just know how worthless it is to give someone a false apology. However, YOU are going to find yourself in a world of cleaning!" She took a deep breath. "Starting with giving Yoona a bath." 

"Aw, MAN! She's such a pain!" 

She glared at him. "Watch it, mister." 

Bradly shuffled his feet. "Yes, momma."

Jordan stuck his head in the door. "Can you give yelling at your kids a break? Some of us actually sleep in this house." He rubbed the side of his head. 

She snorted. "I'll believe it when I see it."

"No one sees any sleep around you, Lu." He waved his hand and walked out. 

"Uh, Momma..."

"Yes, Darguni?"

"Is it a bad time to ask if we can sleep with you?"

She sighed. "I shouldn't, because you both were terrible today, but I was gone for five days and I missed you, so yes."

Bradly swallowed the rock in his throat and knocked on the door. It had been difficult trying to avoid Darguni all morning, just so he could come here. 

The door opened and Linda opened the door. She sighed and put her hands on her hips. "You know she doesn't want to see you right now."

"I know." He bowed his head. "And I deserve it."

Linda raised an eyebrow.

"Listen, could you tell her I'm sorry? I didn't think about the fact that it was embarrassing, and if I did it to myself I'd be embarrassed too. I shouldn'ta laughed, and I don't want to make her cry. It was a stupid thing to do." He fiddled with his fingers. "And I don't think she has to be..." He struggled for the right word. "Mature? Or different, cause I like her the way she is. Can she forgive me?"

Lydia pushed past her mother and stood there with her hands on her hips. "Did Miss Elunara tell you to apologize?"

"No. Momma says that a false apology is worthless."

She crossed her arms. "Ugh, FINE. But I'm still mad."

Elunara stood down at the training yard, waiting. She knew where Bradly went, and she was curious as to how good he was at groveling. When she spotted Lydia marching down the pathway, Bradly in tow, she grinned. 

Lydia stopped in front of Elunara and pointed. "Did you make him apologize?"

She snorted. "A forced apology is worthless."

"I told you." Bradly muttered.

"Bradly, go give Yoona a bath. Lydia has training to get to."

"Yes, Momma."

She waited several days before making her way back down to Charnak. The altar was complete from what she could tell. She made her way on to it and smiled. 

"My goddess! You have returned!" Charnak rushed over. Tylia followed quietly behind him. 

"Ah, my beloved Champion, have you done as I asked?"

He came up short and frowned. "Well, I..."

Elunara stepped past him and took Tylia by the arm. She pointed at Charnak. "You, stay." She led Tylia away. "Now, my beauty, tell me how it has gone."

"You were correct in that he has been unhappy. He keeps his distance, but allows me to follow him. I have tried many times to start a conversation, but he shuts me out."

Elunara tapped her chin. "I was afraid of that." She sighed. "This won't do. Well, just have to step things up. Are you prepared to take the next step? I will be with you the entire time."

"Next step?"

She brushed back the woman's hair. "Your body." She whispered.

"Oh!" She flushed a put a hand to her mouth. 

"The best way to win any man is with your body. He must be made to understand that you and I are one to him. That you can give him the same pleasures I offer. Only if you are willing, my dear. I will be there. I will teach you both. When he comes to see... well, he will learn to be yours with every session."

"But, isn't that kind of a false love?" She frowned.

"In general? Yes. The problem here is that Charnak is so obsessed with MY body; he fails to see you in a sexual, potential mate kind of way. If we remove these barriers, he will more willingly come to your side. I wish for you both to stand as my champions. He cannot stand proud if he is cowing to me." Elunara rubbed her arm. "Now, wait right here." She turned and walked to Charnak.

"My Goddess." He reached out and stroked her cheek.

"Charnak, I am annoyed with you."

He frowned and dropped his hand.

"You have not tried to make this union work." She crossed her arms.

"But, my goddess, she is Frostwolf, and she is not strong like you. She's timid and shy, and just annoying to deal with."

"Because you are not trying." Elunara shook her head. "I am a Night Elf, yet you love me. Being a Frostwolf isn't even the issue. She is NOT weak; she just expresses her strength differently than you." She laid her hands on his arms. "My champion, you must understand that you need some softness in your life. Here I am, offering you the gift of a lifetime, a handpicked bride, and you're squandering it. Why do I offer you anything at all, when the thing that will make me the happiest, you shove off?" 

"I did not think of it like that."

"I have found brides for many of my lovers, and they remain my lovers because they accepted their brides. It is one of my gifts."

"How may I do it correctly?" He fidgeted. 

"You must SPEAK with her. You cannot have a mate you refuse to learn anything about. You must walk with her, speak with her, and find interest in her. I'm certain she is the one for you, because all of my marriages have worked. She is your soul mate, be glad that the spirits led me to her for you. Your children will be valuable to me. You know that I cannot give you the children you secretly desire; she is my vessel for you. You are my war, and she is my mercy. Help me bond you together with my sex. Together you will stand tall and proud." She ran her fingers under his chin. 

"Yes, my goddess. Anything for you." 

She took his hand and started walking. As she passed Tylia, she grabbed her hand too and led the way to Charnak's hut. Elunara cocked her head to the side. "Now that my altar is complete, this throne thing can go away. For now, I intend to use it. You two, sit." Elunara sat down in her cheesy throne. Once they sat in front of her, she leaned her head to the side. "Now, talk."

"About what?" Tylia asked. 

"Don't worry, I will direct the conversation." 

After a couple of hours, Elunara stretched out and stood up. "Alright, I am satisfied with the directions you are taking. We move now to the next portion." She put her hands on Tylia's shoulders. "Stand up my beauty." 

Tylia stood up nervously. 

"Don't worry, I'll be gentle. And so will Charnak, if he knows what's good for him." She grinned. She slid her hands under the edge of Tylia's top and slowly pulled it up over her head. She tossed the garment to the side and ran her hands over Tylia's breasts. "Charnak, stand." 

Charnak scrambled to comply. 

"Now, you have a beautiful set of breasts. Charnak you better be watching my every move." She caressed and pinched, cupped and teased. Using her mouth, she traced patterns on the nipples and made her way up and across, going for Tylia's mouth, before going back down. "You see, you can do all kinds of fun things with your lips and tongue." Elunara stepped behind Tylia and wrapped her hands around the woman's belly. "You try." She purred to Charnak. 

She spent time, directing him, correcting him, demonstrating. She gently licked the woman's shoulder, sending shudders down her. "Now we move on." Elunara tugged at the woman's skirt and pushed it to the floor. "I love how beautifully you respond, my darling. I almost wish I could keep you to myself." She ran her hand across Tylia's belly. "Kneel Charnak." She grinned down at him. "Watch my fingers."

Elunara slid her fingers through the hair and soft folds. Using one hand, she guided Tylia's leg up on to the throne. "That's my girl." She whispered, as she played with Tylia's wet center. "Watch my fingers Charnak, see how I find those delicate spots." Tylia gasped and moaned as she struggled to hang on to Elunara and stand up at the same time. "Lick her. Taste her." 

"Yes, my goddess." He breathed. Slurping the woman, he found himself taking in by the spell Elunara weaved around them. He buried a flinger into those slick folds, following Elunara's instruction. He was hard as a rock, and he couldn't figure out which woman he wanted to bury himself into more. 

Elunara tugged Tylia back and shifted her around. Elunara sat in the chair with Tylia in her lap. "Now, my Champion. She is slick and ready. Now you may have your turn. You must do it slowly, and gentle. Do not anger me now."

"It will be alright, my beauty." Elunara murmured into her ear. 

Charnak stood up and shoved his pants off. Grabbing the Orc woman by the hips, he slid himself in slowly into her waiting folds. With a groan, he began to slide in and out of her. For a moment, he believed his vision to have blurred, for he was seeing two faces. He grabbed the wall behind them and began to thrust his hips in and out, gaining momentum as he went. When at last he poured himself into her, she gave a final shudder against him. 

"Stroke him." Elunara purred. "He is yours. You must gain pleasure from his touch, and he must gain pleasure from yours."

"That was... unbelievable." Tylia murmured.

"I agree." Charnak laughed. "Amazing."

"Next time, I will show you fascinating ways to pleasure him." Elunara grinned as she ran soft fingers over one of Tylia's breasts. "Now do you see, my champion? You can have a world of beauty, and not need me for it. I will be glad to show you both the ways of the goddess. You must enjoy each other's bodies, as well as each other's company. 

Charnak and Tylia stared at each other. 

"I offer you both an amazing level of enjoyment." She grinned. Elunara wiggled her way out from under the pair. "I hope that this time, you take my instruction." She straightened her clothes.

"You're leaving?" Charnak sat up and frowned. 

She brushed her lips across his mouth. "My beloved champion, you need some time with your chosen. I hope that when I return next time, you have grown closer. I will give you quite a treat when I come back, if you do." Elunara bent down and kissed Tylia. "My dearest beauty, seize him, for he is yours." She waved as she walked out. Stopping by the altar, she retrieved her demon skull and headed in to town.



For the Whored Ch. 095



She was quite a sight, hauling that massive demon skull by a horn. She smiled and waved and kept on going. The kids ran up beside her. 

"Is that a demon head?"

"Those horns are AWESOME!" 

"Did you bring me back anything?" Lydia asked shyly. 

Elunara pulled a small skull out of her bag. "This one is yours." She placed it in Lydia's hand. Hooking the prepared demon head on to her contraption, she pulled it into place above her door. She secured the line and grinned up at her trophy. 

"Really, Lu? REALLY?" Renwa sighed.

"Hey pokey. Like my trophy?"

"Well, it's certainly..." Zelinnia liked her lips. "Intimidating."

"Why are you here?" 

"I came to ask for a status report on the Charnak situation."

"I have it well in hand. I'm pleased with the progress. Found him a nice devotee. My only concern at this time is they're growing again. He's started replacing lost warriors." She shook her head. "Can't discourage that, it'll go horribly wrong if I try."

"Well, as long as you've gotten the situation in hand."

"I still think I've laid it a tad thick, but he eats it like candy."

"You could sell a Blood Elf broken mana crystals." Zelinnia laughed. 

Darguni stuck his face over the stroller. "Is that Abigail? Can I say hi?"

"Of course you can." Zelinnia smiled. 

Darguni stuck his hand in and took one of the baby's. "Hi, Abigail. I'm Darguni. You and me? We're the same." He rubbed her hand. "When you get big like me, people might make fun of you because they don't understand people like us. It's OK though, I'll protect you." He bent down and kissed her on the head. 

"I will too!" Bradly nodded. He rubbed his hand on the baby's forehead. "We have to look out for each other cause we're different." He mimicked Darguni and kissed Abigail. 

"Hey, let's go tell people about the skull!" Darguni bounced.

"YEAH!" 

Lydia leaned over the carriage and cocked her head to the side. "I guess I'll watch out for you too..." She looked up. "HEY WAIT UP!" She ran after the boys. 

"Oh Gods, I think I'm going to go home and cry for an hour." Zelinnia choked.

Renwa shook his head and ran his hands down Zelinnia's back. "Say what you will about your methods in everything you do Elunara, but you certainly raise some good kids."

"Hold on. I can't feel my throat." Elunara sighed. She laughed. "I think that was a tiny glint of jealousy in Lydia's eye though."

"Oh, dear." Zelinnia put a hand to her cheek. "That's all I need."

"Eh, it'll be fine. Don't worry so much." Elunara brushed a thumb across her cheek. "You and I both know a woman's heart is fickle."

Zelinnia blushed scarlet. "Oh you're just awful."

Renwa sighed. "One of these days I'll get invited."

Elunara grinned. "You'll have to take that up with your wife." 

"ELUNARA!" Zelinnia growled. 

"You know I love to tease you." She laughed. 

"You're so mean." Zelinnia flushed. 

"I guess I'll just have to use my imagination..." Renwa sighed. 

"You know, you haven't benefitted from one of my sessions yet." Elunara crossed her arms. 

"We could get a babysitter." Renwa nodded. 

"Tulani would love to return the favor." 

"Perhaps you can add us to the calendar."

"I know she's partial to the tub."

"But would Ina let us?"

"She lets me all the time."

Zelinnia crossed her arms. "What if I wanted Tulani there?"

Elunara raised an eyebrow. "The Finisters wouldn't mind."

Zelinnia slapped a hand over her mouth. "I said that out loud didn't I?"

"Then again, I have this fascinating couch you guys should try out." Elunara grinned. 

"I hate you so much right now." Zelinnia sighed. 

"How about I pencil you in and see where it goes?" Elunara winked at Renwa. 

"Well, I'd certainly enjoy it. What about you?" He chuckled at Zelinnia's face. 

"SO much." She grumbled.

"She's so easy to mess with, isn't she?" Elunara giggled. 

"I'm not the only one who knows how far that blush goes, am I?" Renwa grinned.

"All the way to her pink little folds." Elunara sighed. 

"You know I'd never put you on the spot like that, right?" Renwa rubbed Zelinnia's back.

"I didn't say no." She mumbled. 

Elunara cackled. "Let me get my book."

It was actually Jordan that got around to doing a Junior training team. Grogek just didn't have time to do it, and Jordan figured out how to fit the time into his day. They had dubbed Elunara's training "track team" and Jordan had the "Junior Warriors". 

"Eh, I spent most of that time standing around bullshitting with Grogek anyhow."

"Well, at least someone is doing it. Just tell me if you need me."

He wrapped his arms around her waist. "Baby, I always need you."

She laughed and pushed at his chest. "For demos or anything, you dork."

Several of the children giggled. 

"Alright, today we're going to start off with staves." Jordan pulled several off the rack and started handing them out.

"Aww, why do we hafta start with a stupid stick?" One kid asked.

Elunara stopped mid stride, turned and stared. "Is he new? Tell me he's new."

"Yes, Momma." Bradly answered. 

"Sorry, Baby, we got a new shipment while you were off playing with demons. That's where the practice weapons came from."

"And nobody told me?" She crossed her arms. "WELL, I guess we're due for a demo."

Jordan sighed. "Great, kid. You got her started." He gestured at Elunara marching angrily to her staff on the weapon rack. 

"GROGEK!" She yelled. "You didn't tell me you had new recruits!"

"Haven't had time, my love. I take it you want a fight."

She gestured with her staff. "Kid over there thinks staves are just stupid sticks!"

"Are you gonna fight too, Papa Jordan?" Darguni cocked his head to the side.

"Nah, I'mma let her and your dad go at it."

Grogek pulled out his axe. "Just you and me today?"

"Just us, Sugarbear. Two of you takes skill, but I want to show what this dinky little stick can do against raw power." 

Jordan sighed. "If there's one thing in the world Elunara loves above all else, it's showing off."

"That's because she's amazing." Lydia sighed. 

Grogek and Elunara dove at each other. 

"Why do you call him Papa Jordan, if that's your dad?"

"Papa is Momma's first husband and Papa Jordan is her second husband."

"Oh, they got a divorce? No wonder they're trying to kill each other."

"No they didn't."

"She can't have TWO husbands."

"She has two husbands and a wife." Bradly shrugged. "Momma doesn't do anything normal."

"We're the best kind of weird." Darguni grinned, showing his fang. 

"So, Bradly, does that mean Jordan is your dad?"

"No. My dad died trying to save someone. They're my family now though. 

"That's just weird."

"The best kind of weird." Both boys said at the same time. 

"You think Papa will take down Momma this time?"

"Not a chance." Bradly shook his head. "She's got a good dose of mean goin, like Captain Gerald says."

"Your parents are trying to kill each other." Aaron shook his head. 

Bradly pointed. "You see that faint yellow glow? It means momma is feeding off of this fight." 

Darguni nodded. "She has looked a little dull the past couple of days. I wonder if the demons took more out of her than she thought."

"Probably."

"What does that even mean?"

"It's hard to explain..." Bradly shrugged. 

"Our Momma would never hurt our Papas. They died before, and she went into the nether and dragged their souls back to their bodies." Darguni crossed his arms.

"This scar..." Jordan pointed to the starburst pattern on his cheek. "Is from a lunatic shooting me in the face. I died. She brought me back, even though it shouldn't have been possible. Everyone tells me that she clung to me and demanded the light give me back. When Grogek died to a different maniac, her scream could be heard over the entire town. She brought down forty five orcs and then demanded that he be returned to her. She is said to have sprouted massive glowing wings and commanded the spirits to return him. There's an orc you might see every now and then, who still calls her the Goddess of War and Mercy. She is the single most terrifying person alive."

"I can't believe she's doing all of that with a stick!" 

"It's not even enchanted. It has no stats, it just a simple staff she picked up one day." Jordan sighed. With a frown, he watched Grogek lose ground. "She's not stopping." He jumped forward and used his sword to block her next attack. 

Grogek went down on one knee. "I think she's lost herself." He panted.

"I see that!" Jordan leapt out of the way, barely avoiding the swing after. 

"I'm tapped out. Try to bring her down." Grogek shook his head. "I wish I could eat energy like she does."

Jordan blocked her next several attacks. Seeing no choice, he kicked her in the stomach and knocked her back. She let out a growl and bared her teeth. She flexed her hand and her dagger appeared. 

"Oh, shit." He dodged and blocked her several times, but still she went for the kill. "GERALD! MARK! GET YOUR ASSES DOWN HERE! Elunara's lost herself!"

"What the fuck?" Gerald grabbed his sword and dove in.

Mark landed beside Jordan. "What's wrong with her?"

"I don't know. We have to bring her down before she does serious damage." He blocked another one of her hits. They struggled to keep her back. 

"Should we disarm her?"

"You'll never get that enchanted dagger out of her hand, and if she loses the staff, she'll rely heavily on the dagger and then we're all fucked." He kicked her knee out, but she recovered quickly.

Grogek struggled to stand. "I think she's actively taking energy." 

"What? That's not possible." 

"Right now it is."

"What could this have happened?" Jordan shook his head. "She's acting..." His mouth dropped open and he stared. "Possessed."

"The demons." Grogek managed to stand, but he was having difficulty holding on to his axe. He went down on one knee.

"Baby." Jordan dodged an attack and blocked with his sword. "Baby, I know you're in there. Please."

Both Gerald and Mark were holding their own well enough. 

"GET RENWA!" Jordan yelled. 

"AND TULANI!" Grogek added. 

"Baby, we will save you... somehow."

The soldier burst into Renwa's office. "Sir! Something's gone wrong with Elunara. It started with a demonstration, but now she's out for blood. General Jordan and the others are struggling to keep her in hand." 

Renwa grabbed his sword and ran out. 

Zelinnia jumped up and pointed to the crib. "Watch my baby!" She shoved past the soldier and started running. 

"Tu..." The man panted. "Tulani! Elunara's gone nuts... you have... to stop her." 

Tulani dropped her armload on the floor and started running. 

"I can't get a move in edgewise." Mark panted. "Plus, I think I'm seeing double." 

"What's wrong with your mom?"

"I don't know. I've never seen her DO this." Darguni wrung his hands. 

"What if it's like that time you saved her?" Bradly bit his lip

"I don't know... she's never told me all of that story."

"I still can't believe she's doing all of that with a staff." The other kid blinked. 

She growled and dove for Jordan and he slammed her into the ground. "Baby, it's ME, please, I beg of you." 

She kicked him in the stomach and sent him flying. She slashed out with her dagger but tangled on the staff. 

"I know you're still in there. Please. Listen, sweetheart, it's me, you know me. I love you." He continued to block her as he talked. "I've always loved you. I will save you." He deflected the staff and elbowed her in the throat. "You're in there. I know you are."

Tears began to roll down her cheeks. She wiped at them and hissed. Once again, she went after him with the dagger, but tangled herself on the staff. She began to shriek. 

Everyone grabbed their ears. Two more soldiers jumped into the fray to take over for the downed Mark. 

Renwa and Tulani stopped and stared at each other. Elunara was fighting with a viciousness that neither of them had seen before. "WHAT'S GOING ON?"

"She's still in there! I think the staff represents her humanity! Every time she goes for a kill shot with the dagger, she blocks herself with the staff." Jordan dove on her back. "Baby, please. FIGHT I know you!"

Grogek dropped his axe and dove on Elunara. She grabbed him and flung him backwards over her head. She elbowed Jordan in the gut and gashed his arms. She dove on Grogek and dug her nails into his chest. "Feed." She hissed. He roared in agony

Jordan body slammed her into the ground. 

"Do that thing you did last time to save her!" Bradly cried. 

"But I don't know what I DID!" Darguni yanked at his hair. 

Elunara jammed her dagger into Jordan's shoulder. He dropped his sword and yelled in pain. Blood ran down his arm, but he held her down. "Baby, WAKE UP! PLEASE!" 

Tulani started to run forward, but when Elunara flung Jordan off and dove for another soldier, Renwa yanked her back. "We have to disable her somehow, or she'll just hurt you too." 

Renwa jumped in the ring and joined the others. 

"She's just feeding off of you!" Zelinnia cried. "How can you stop that?"

"By reaching her, inside!" Jordan cried. "She's still there, and she's fighting herself." He winced at his arm. "ELUNARA FIGHT IT!" He dropped to his knees. "Baby, we need you! All of us need you! Your husbands need you; your wife needs you, your children! Please snap out of it!"

"My vicious little she wolf! You are stronger than the demon. I know you tapped yourself out again, but take from them. Take your strength back!"

"Goddammit Elunara, this isn't you! Fight it!" Renwa growled. As she slid back, she hissed. She took off running at him. He deflected her blows and body slammed her into the ground.

"Elunara please! I need you!" Zelinnia cried. "Who's going to help me with Abigail?" She yanked at her hair. "Who's going to teach me all the fun stuff?"

"YOU CAN'T LEAVE ME HERE!" Tulani screamed. "No one can love me like you do; no one can make me feel special like you have! No one has given me the things you have!" 

Elunara faltered, looked around in confusion. The men pressed their advantage and she leapt in the air and crashed down on one of them.

"FIGHT!" Linda screamed. "You saved my little girl and I haven't paid you back yet! FIGHT!" 

All of the kids began to scream "FIGHT!"

"MOMMA!" The boys screamed. "FIGHT!"

She hesitated, fighting blindly with a shriek. She dove on to Renwa and began slashing at him with her dagger. One of the men whacked her with a shield and she tumbled forward. She scrambled up and hissed. 

"BRADLY!" Darguni screamed. 

Bradly ran with all of his might and dove on Elunara's back. "MOMMA YOU HAVE TO FIGHT!" She reached back and grabbed him by his shoulder and hauled him up into the air. "Momma! Momma it's me! Please momma, you'd never hurt me!" Tears streamed down his face as he struggled in her grasp. She held him up above her and hissed. "Momma please..." He whimpered. 

"Bradly?" She whispered. She grabbed him around the waist with one hand and let go of his shoulder. Wrapping her arms around him, tears streamed down her face. "Oh, Gods, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry my baby. Please forgive me." She dropped to her knees. 

Darguni was right on Bradly's heels and dove on Elunara. Tulani reached her next and wrapped her arms around the trio. Jordan wrapped his good arm around them, and soon Grogek wrapped his arms around all of them. 

"WHAT the HELL was THAT?" Renwa slammed his sword into the ground. "Explain yourself."

"I... I don't know." She shook her head. "One minute I'm making a point about staves and I'm just so damned angry, the next is like this awful fog. Then I'm holding Bradly... I just... I don't know." She whimpered. 

"Baby, did you tap yourself when you went to fight the demons?"

"Ah... yes? I don't know, it was kind of a blur, because the orcs were feeding into me so hard that it was like riding on drugs. I might have over done it. I'm not sure."

Renwa shook his head. "So, because you had to show off to a trash of orcs, you got yourself a demon possession." 

Elunara winced. "It appears that way. I didn't think I had to mention it because it was more euphoric and less draining." She sighed "I guess that's something new to watch out for." She grumbled.

"Elunara, I am confining you to quarters." Renwa crossed his arms. Grogek and Jordan backed away, and Tulani sat back with a frown. 

"WHAT?"

"You did something reckless and highly irresponsible. I am confining you to quarters until Tyrande can be properly contacted. Should she decide to come here-"

"Oh, come on." Elunara cried.

"NO!" He shoved a finger in her face. "You listen to ME. I put up with your antics every time I turn around, but you put this whole town in jeopardy because you had to go show off. Now, you will listen to my verdict. Should she decide to come here, you will be confined to quarters until she does. If she summons you to Darnassus, you WILL go."

"NO! I won't!" 

"Darguni WILL stay here and if necessary, I personally will care for your children while you are gone. But you WILL do it. DO you hear me?"

Elunara tossed up her hands. "Not like I have a choice."

"Furthermore, while you are confined to quarters and WHILE you are unsafe, all of your appointments will be cancelled."

"HEY!"

"I don't need someone turning into dinner for a demon. Have I made myself clear?"

"But-"

"CLEAR?"

"Yes." 

"Your little Orc pet will not be allowed to visit you either. I don't care WHAT plans you have in the works, I won't have him be dinner either. We're all well aware of the energy capabilities of an Orc as a battery." Renwa snorted.

"This is stupid." She crossed her arms.

"Is it?" He raised a brow. "Since you've been here, Elunara, I have let you get by with any damned thing you've wanted. You almost slaughtered your whole family because of this. You know well and good what our creed is."

"For the good of the Alliance."

"Exactly. Now get your ass home. Ina or other healer will be sent to you." Renwa turned away and pulled up his sword, strolling past Zelinnia and Duchie.

Elunara sighed and pushed the boys out of her lap. "I heard you."She brushed her hand on Tulani's cheek. I heard all of you." She stood up. "Oh Gods, Jordan, your arm!" She put her hand over the blood and focused her energy into him. 

He brushed a hand on her cheek. "You didn't even know..."

She shook her head. "Gods, Grogek, what did I do to you?"

"Well, I have several holes in my chest from where you dug in your nails, but mostly you just ate me for energy."

"I... but I can't take more than given?"

"Oh, you were taking all over the place." 

"It was like I was in this inky fog. I could hear, but not much else. I was struggling to fight my way through the fog. I was chasing your voices, but I couldn't surface." She gave a soft laugh. "I guess Bradly and Darguni are tied on saving my life."

"Momma, can you tell me about the time that I saved you?"

"Come on, I want to lay in bed first." She sighed.



For the Whored Ch. 096



Renwa was standing in front of her house. "What should I do with THIS?"

"Look, if I have Tyrande purify it, can I please keep it?"

"We'll discuss it." He sighed. "I feel compelled to apologize to you for being so harsh. My decree still stands."

"Nah. I guess I was just more shocked that you'd actually yell at me." 

"You do realize that you just scared half the town to death, AND injured about fifteen of our men, right?"

"Actually, I have no idea what happened when I was taken over."

"You would attack with your dagger, and then block the dagger with your staff." Jordan murmured. "You only nailed me because I got in a range that blocked the staff."

"Excuse me?" Everyone looked over at Linda. "I know she is under punished confinement, but would a short visit be alright?"

Renwa sighed. "Elunara is allowed visitors, so long as all visits are cleared through me, and last no longer than fifteen minutes." He walked away. 

"I need to lie down, but you can follow." 

She sighed as she lay down on the bed. 

"I guess you can't feel all that well, having your body taken over like that."

"Looky, queen of the understatements!"

Linda blinked repeatedly and just stared.

"Don't mind her, she gets cranky mean when she's drained." Jordan laughed. "She'll feel bad about it tomorrow."

"Like, seriously tired of this shit." She crossed her arms. "If you're here to tell me you don't want your kid near me, now would be the time." 

"Actually, no. It was kind of inspiring, hearing your family try so hard to save you."

Elunara pointed. "I heard you too. I know I did."

Grogek brought her a plate of fruit. 

"Thank you my love." She ran her hand on his cheek.

He climbed in bed beside her and took an apple. 

"Shouldn't you get back to training?"

He snorted. "I don't eat energy like you do. And you drained me."

"I'm sorry." She bit into a pear. 

"Ahem. Uh, what is he talking about?"

"Sorry."

The boys ran in and jumped on the bed. "We fed Savage."

"Momma, you were going to tell us?"

"Where is Lydia? We may as well..."

Lydia stepped in. "General Jordan said I could come in."

"Get on the bed, child." 

Lydia jumped on the bed between the two boys. 

"The first thing I need to ask, is that this goes no further than this room, unless I otherwise state it. Because there's something very important that I don't want the other children to know." 

"Yes, Momma."

"Yes Miss Elunara." 

She closed her eyes and sighed, enjoying the love radiating at her. She opened her eyes and frowned. "Darguni is very special. I am a Night Elf from our time; Grogek is an orc from this planet in this time. In order for us to go back and forth, a portal through time must be opened. You should know all of this part. So Darguni is a child of both races, of both times. When I was pregnant with him, he... grew faster than others. The first half of my pregnancy, I stayed so sick I couldn't move. The second half I was so big, I also couldn't move. I was literally trapped in this bed for seven months."

"Babies take nine months." Lydia said. She blushed. "I asked."

"By time I had reached seven months, he had gotten so big, that my body could no longer sustain him. I went into labor, but Ina was afraid I'd be torn apart. So, I summoned my dagger," She flexed her hand. And then drew the blade across her belly. "And cut him out. I kinda blacked out at that moment." She laughed.

"Your mom is terrifying." Lydia whispered.

"Anyway, he was too big. Not normal too big." She shook her head. "Ina guessed he was already two months old. He's always grown faster than anyone. When he wasn't quite two, I... things started changing for me."

Jordan walked in, drying his hair. Linda looked over and blushed. He climbed into bed behind Elunara and wrapped his arms around her. 

"This next part is no secret. Jordan was killed by an idiot with a gun, and... I lost my marbles. I summoned a power I never knew I had to pull his spirit back from the nether. I didn't know what had happened at the time, I didn't feel I had done anything. Soon I had pulled off several "miracles". Not that I understood anything about it." She stared at her hands. 

"I am eternally grateful." Jordan kissed her shoulder. 

"Then, Grogek died... and all hell broke loose. To put it mildly, I slaughtered the orcs. Renwa is still trying to figure out how I decapitated some of them in a single blow with a DAGGER." 

"My avenging angel." Grogek kissed her other shoulder. 

Not only did I go on a mass slaughter, I then forced the nether to give me back my mate."

Jordan tapped a framed picture on the wall. "This is an accurate representation. Well over fifty troops, eight healers, and a mess of townsfolk all confirm it."

"Anyway, in the process, I drained my body. I was completely wiped out. Well, I wasn't regaining my strength like I should have been. Because of this extreme miracle, Tyrande Whisperwind was called to investigate. It was she who determined that the reason I'm so freakishly strong, the reason I have such a ridiculous amount of stamina, is that I absorb energy given to me by other people. 

Whenever you look at me and think "I like you" I get a fresh boost. I can never take more than is given. If someone looks at me and thinks "I hate you" I still get a tiny boost because they acknowledged me, but I can't get a GOOD boost because they had a negative thought towards me. All these years that I have put myself in the way of people, I've been absorbing their energy. When people love and appreciate me, I get lovely boosts. My family is a walking boost to me. The more... interaction I get, the more I can feed." She popped a grape in her mouth.

"And we gladly give it to her." Tulani walked in and scooted up into Grogek's lap, wrapping her arms around Elunara.

"In the end though, the massive amount of energy I drained to bring Grogek back, left me open to a creature known as a dark star. It was eating me alive, and not letting me absorb energy. Tyrande decided the best way to fix me, was to take me to Darnassus. I come back to the big secret. When we left for Darnassus, Darguni wasn't quite two years old. When we arrived in Darnassus, Darguni was four years old."

The children gasped and stared at each other. 

"Now back to the part people know. They took a couple of tries to cleanse me in the pools of the moon, but on the last attempt, they were having difficulty making it work. Tulani and Grogek were trying to give me all the energy they could, but they weren't making headway. Then Darguni, in all his adorable innocence, dove into the pools, climbed the statue and jumped on my legs. It was his loving energy that allowed my body to finally banish the dark star."

"Wow..."

"Now back to the part people don't know. The big secret. I was only in Darnassus a week. I left Darnassus with a four year old."

Jordan tightened his grip on her waist and rubbed his cheek on her shoulder. "She was gone almost two months." 

"And I arrived with a six year old. A six year old who had absolutely no memory of anything that had happened." She sighed. "Darguni is, at most, two and a half years old. I don't want anyone else to know this, because I don't want people to think less of him." She brushed a hand through his hair. "For all intents and purposes, he is six. We will celebrate his birthday as normal. Which is actually this month. He had some catching up to do in the education scale, but I think we did ok. 

The reason I don't want you to go back to Darnassus, or any part of that time, is that I couldn't handle it if you lost years again. There's a high possibility that you'll lose time and then suddenly you'll be far beyond anything now. You won't have your friends; you'll have to relearn things. I'm not even sure you'll keep your memories."

Darguni sniffled. "Would I lose my brother?"

"Bradly will always be your brother, sweetie. But, instead of being your big brother, he'd be your little brother." 

"Why didn't I grow?" Lydia frowned.

"As I said, Darguni is a child of both times. He's a unique situation. All that I have found, says that children can pass back and forth without an issue. None of the children that have come through have been affected."

"How is that like now?" Bradly asked.

"We believe that when Elunara ran herself out taking down the demons when she left a few days ago. She opened herself up again to something dark." Jordan sighed. 

"I hope Tyrande can help us again." Grogek sighed and stroked a hand down her arm. 

"We'll be here for you." Tulani smiled and followed Grogek's example. 

"It's rather fascinating watching you... four. My brain scrambles with the questions I really shouldn't be asking." Linda laughed. 

"She'd tell you." Tulani grinned.

"In great detail." Jordan laughed. 

"Just please don't invite her in." Grogek sighed. "It's getting complicated as it is."

Elunara laughed manically. "No, my loves. I'm done. I swear. I'm not sure I'd even know what to DO with another."

"You? Not know what to do?" Jordan snorted.

"I'll believe it when I see it." Tulani snorted. 

"Hey, did anyone walk Yoona today?" Elunara raised her eyebrows.

The boys looked at each other. "We'll do it now, Momma." Bradly climbed off the bed. 

"Come on, Lydia." Darguni waved at her. 

After listening to the sounds of three children run down the stairs, Elunara sighed. "The energy off of those kids is nice, but I had a feeling the topic was going... less than kid friendly." 

Linda blushed. "I'm sorry."

"Nah, don't worry about it. The truth is, yes I get HIGH doses of energy off of sex. In some of our wilder moments, I can actually get overloaded. Yes, keeping three continuous lovers is a bit selfish, but the end discussion is that I love them. Each one offers something special to my heart. People look at us and think we're weird, or that I don't value them that much. But I go crazy when anything happens to them."

"While we are an all you can eat buffet to Elunara," Jordan grinned. "We all also get our special days or our special moments."

"If Elunara and I want our time, we take it." Tulani smiled and kissed Elunara's shoulder. "We have special cues that say, this is our alone time, or yes you can join us."

"I find it pretty funny that everyone seems to call me the head of the household." Grogek chuckled. "But that's just how it works out. I married her first, Tulani second, Jordan third. I hold the highest rank, if only because it is the kind of person I am, that allows this family to even exist."

"I like to say, that Grogek opened my heart, Tulani held the door open, and Jordan just strolled right in." Elunara laughed. 

"Elunara has enough love for whomever she allows into her heart next." Grogek smiled and toyed with her hair. 

"We all need each other, in our own ways." Tulani smiled. 

"Elunara is our glue though." Jordan nodded. "The sex? Totally mind blowing." He grinned. "I mean, we ARE talking about Elunara here. But it's not ALL of our relationship. It's kind of weird, but it works. I mean, Grogek and I hang out and chitchat about nothing, like we've been friends our whole lives. And I'd do anything is takes to protect Tulani, but lord knows I'm just terrified to step in her studio." He laughed. 

"I think we all agree that we'd do anything to protect our Tulani." Grogek grinned. 

"Everyone just thinks it's so adorable that you kiss me on the head." Tulani laughed. 

"You are Elunara's, so you are mine." He pointed to Jordan. "I still ain't kissin him."

"Please don't." Jordan whimpered. 

"Admittedly, by this point, Tulani is just mine, I care for her. I will always care for her. I just don't see her in a sexual way. Regardless of what you add to the... party as Jordan calls it."

"Well, of course you don't." Tulani snorted. "I'm not into men. Just because I enjoy tossing myself into the fray every now and then, doesn't even mean I consider them attractive."

Elunara chuckled and rubbed Tulani's leg. "It's ok, my Sweetness. Just because one pigheaded moron got you in a pinch, doesn't mean these two would ever do that."

"Yeah Tuly." Jordan patted her shoulder. "We all know it's only by your grace that you ever get involved. We wouldn't try to make a thing of it."

"That jerk isn't the only one to make the comment." Tulani grit her teeth.

"What?" Elunara growled. 

She sighed. "I shouldn't have brought it up. Besides, you're on lock down; you can't do anything about it."

Grogek cracked his knuckles. "No, but I damned well can."

Elunara sighed and laughed. "I am reminded of that assmunch that said "if Grogek can't straighten out Tulani, none of us can."

Tulani giggled. "That is the best thing I have ever heard. Perhaps we can get Gerald involved again?" 

"Maybe." 

"I still want his name." 

"I don't know his name, but I can point him out at training tomorrow."

"Oh? He's a soldier? Even better." Grogek grinned, showing his teeth. 

"I hope my husband hasn't pissed you off." Linda giggled. 

"Which one?"

"Thomas?"

"Oh, no. He's pretty good, faster learner, determined to keep his commission, though he recently seemed to relax on that point." Grogek stared off as if he was trying to remember something.

"Since Elunara fixed Lydia's legs, he's been much more at peace."

"That's it." Grogek pointed. "Couldn't put it together." 

"We will be forever grateful to Elunara for what she did. It's been so difficult..." She shook herself. "What you did was nothing short of miraculous."

"It's funny how she does these things without thinking, and then gets embarrassed when people thank her for it." Laughed Jordan. 

"Elune appreciates her actions. Elune facilitates them." Elunara said suddenly.

Everyone stared at her. 

"Aw, shit." Said Grogek.

"What? What's wrong?" Linda frowned. 

"I protect her. Tyrande must be summoned."

"Tyrande has been summoned." Jordan answered, flicking a glance at the others. "Is everything ok?"

"I am so pleased with how she has come along; my heart went out when she sent me such an honest prayer. I could not deny that little girl."

"Elune, has Elunara been taken over by a demon?"

"The demon she ripped to pieces latched on to her rage and is trying to take over. I have him abated for now. Tyrande must be summoned."

"What's going on, why is she talking like that?"

"Elunara is my most treasured disciple. I cannot let her come to harm."

"Yeah..." Jordan sighed. "You know how we said when she is drained, it leaves her open to stuff? Apparently the incarnation of Elune likes Elunara and frequently takes over her body when drained."

"That's... disturbing."

"Elune is benevolent and is trying to save Elunara. It's just a sign of how bad it was." Grogek sighed. 

"Wait, you mean the goddess of the night elves?"

"The same."

"You must be the mother." Elunara cocked her head to the side. "How fascinating. 

"Please give me my wife back." Grogek sighed. 

"Oh, yes. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to cause you distress. Elunara is fine. I hold back the demon for now. Go back to whatever it was you were doing." Elunara's stare went blank. She shook her head and frowned. "Bah, I must be more drained than I thought." 

"Baby, I hate to tell you this..."

"Wait, what NOW?"

"Elune took you over again."

She flopped back against his chest. "Oh Gods." 

He winced. "Baby, that shoulder..."

She bolted upright and turned. "Oh, I'm so sorry." She kissed his shoulder. She slid against his chest and wrapped her arms around Jordan and Grogek's necks. "Gods, please forgive me, I almost..."

Both wrapped an arm around her, running their hands in sync down her back and across her ass.

"It's ok, Baby. We knew it wasn't you."

She kissed Grogek, and then turned and kissed Jordan. "I don't know how I could live with myself..."

Grogek captured her mouth with his own. "You didn't." He breathed.

Jordan had his turn. "You can't get rid of us that easy."

Tulani stood up quietly and walked around the bed. "You might want to follow... unless you want to watch." She whispered.

Linda was already scarlet. "Oh!" She got up and followed behind Tulani, sparing a final peek before heading out. 

Tulani flipped the sign. 

Zelinnia marched up. "I demand to see her right NOW."

"Why, certainly, if you want to see her going for double penetration." Tulani smiled benignly. 

Linda and Zelinnia flushed completely. "Oh, my."

Tulani calmly walked away. 

"Gods, I can't believe I did that." Elunara kissed Grogek again, before kissing Jordan.

"I forgive you." Jordan nuzzled her cheek with his nose. 

Grogek shifted her on top of him. "We know you."

She pressed her mouth to his. He slipped his fingers under her shirt and tugged it off; and he captured her breast with his hand. Jordan slid around back and tugged her pants off. He trailed his mouth up and down her spine, before slipping his fingers into her. 

"Gods, you're always so slick." Jordan shifted up, tugging his pants off. He slipped into her center a few times, before shifting up and pressing into her ass. She arched her back and groaned. 

Grogek tugged himself free, and grabbed Elunara's hips before slipping her down over his dick. 

She ran her hands over the holes in his chest and concentrated her energy into him. "I'm so sorry." She whispered. She bent down and kissed each indentation of her nails. Licking his chest, she ran her hands across his shoulders.

Jordan pumped himself in and out of her ass, clinging to her hips, ignoring the feeling of his balls brushing against Grogek's

Grogek held on to Elunara's hips as he began to pump her on to his dick, over and over. Jordan shoved her forward, and soon she was rotating her hips with the both of them, groaning as she could feel the two of them rubbing inside of her. She clamped down, but still they persisted, slow and steady rhythm, as Grogek licked her neck, and Jordan kissed her back. 

Jordan slipped a hand forward, and cupped a breast, teasing the hardened nipple. With a hard shudder, he filled her ass. Grogek took his advantage and yanked Elunara's hips down over him as he filled her front. She collapsed on Grogek's chest, and Jordan collapsed on her back. 

Wrapping her arm up and around Jordan's neck, she sighed. "I need you both, just so much."

"And we need you, Baby." Jordan kissed her shoulder. 

Grogek wrapped his arms around the both of them. "That we do."



For the Whored Ch. 097



Elunara went down into her library and started sorting her work out for the week, just in case it took too long. 

"So what are we going to do about Elunara?" Jordan leaned against the big bedroom door. "We can't leave her here by herself."

"We'll take turns." Grogek pulled on a shirt. 

"I guess I'll take first round of babysitting duty." 

"I can HEAR you!" She stared at the ceiling. 

"My shoulder's still killing me, and if she tries anything, I can guilt her with it." He grinned.

She threw her papers on the desk. "I can STILL hear you!"

Grogek laid a hand on Jordan's good shoulder. "May the spirits guide you, brother."

"I'm going to NUTPUNCH the BOTH of you!"

"Hey, you called me brother." Jordan said quietly.

"Hm. That I did." Grogek considered for a moment. "You are." He clapped his hand to Jordan's good shoulder. "You are my brother."

Jordan was rendered completely speechless. He swallowed several times before returning the gesture. "And you are my brother." He grinned. 

"Gods, you two saps are going to make me vomit." Elunara dove on the both of them, wrapping her arms around their necks. "I love you both." 

"Does that make me the sister?" Tulani raised an eyebrow as she leaned against the door. 

"I believe it does." Jordan laughed. 

"Our papas are now brothers?" 

Everyone looked at the two boys. 

"We were just jealous of you two." Jordan grinned. 

They ran to join in the hugging. 

"This is the best day!" Darguni proclaimed.

"Well, it's high in the running." Bradly grinned. 

"Yeah, you're right. The BEST day was the day I got a brother." Darguni grinned and put his arm on Bradly's shoulders. 

"Ugh, so much love, it's awful." Elunara laughed. "Go on you two; don't you have a town to terrorize?"

"But momma..."

"You're stuck here by yourself."

"We don't want to leave you lonely."

"I'm staying today." Jordan scrubbed Bradly's hair. "You guys go tell your friends about how awesome your mom is. She probably terrified some of them, you need to do damage control, or they might not join the warriors."

Elunara sighed. "Yes, that's the most important job right now, making sure people don't think I'm some kind of monster."

Grogek snorted. "Just another training exercise. I'll do my end."

"I'll try to ease the minds of the townsfolk." Tulani sighed. 

"You know, fuck it. I like when people hate me." Elunara crossed her arms. "I'm used to that."

"Oh, don't be that way." Tulani brushed her lips against Elunara's. "You're a sweetheart and we all know it." 

"Don't worry momma, we'll let them know you're the best!" Darguni tugged on her shirt. 

"I'm sure Lydia would tell them too." Bradly blushed. 

Elunara sighed. "I'm going to go stir crazy."

"You spend most of your time indoors anyway." Tulani poked her.

"Yeah, but I usually have some form of entertainment. Being here by myself is going to make me bonkers."

"I'm here." Jordan brushed a hand down her arm. 

She gave him a cool look. "All by myself... babysitter."

The boys giggled before running off. 

Jordan kissed her shoulder. "It'll be ok. We're right here for you." 

Tyrande stepped into Renwa's office. "I got your message."

"I'm glad you could get here so quickly."

"I would do anything for my daughter."

Duchie's eyebrows shot up. "She's your..."

"Oh, I didn't tell you?" Renwa raised an eyebrow. "An oversight, I assure you." He paused and narrowed his eyes. "Didn't you read her books?"

"Twice... but, uh... I seemed to have missed that tidbit."

"Old friend, you're starting to make me think you're incompetent." 

"This is all well and good, but where is she?"

"She has been confined to quarters until you could decide how best to deal with her."

Tyrande nodded. "She would not come back to Darnassus, so I have brought Darnassus with me. I've also called in a few favors here. I will need a wide, clear area."

"The training yard has a training ring."

"That will do. Lead me to it."

Tyrande observed the area. "Is this where she lost herself?" 

"Yes."

"All the better. Ladies, do what you came to."

The procession of priestess began pouring water in various patterns on the ground.

"They will purify the area and give us a place to work. I will see to my daughter soon, but I must handle this."

"Tyrande, I need to tell you one other thing."

"Yes, Renwa?"

"Elunara has taken possession of a demon skull that she has hung above her door."

"I guess I should see to my daughter now."

Elunara grinned down at Jordan as she had him pinned to the couch. She ran her fingers over his chest. "Maybe you should stay home more often." 

He tugged up her shirt and pulled her down, sucking on a breast. His hand slipped down into her pants and grabbed her ass. 

"Or maybe this was your intent all along." She groaned. 

There was a knock on the door. He released her with a sigh. Rolling her eyes, she slid off of him and went for the door. He rubbed his erection with a groan. "Don't worry." He mumbled. "We'll have her."

"Mother!" Elunara gasped. 

"Or not." Jordan sighed.

Tyrande wrapped her arms around Elunara. "I came as soon as I got the message. 

Elunara returned the hug and then stepped back. "I thought it'd be several days at least."

"I can move mountains for my daughter."

"Momma! Momma!" A pair of voice cried. Both boys ran in and stopped up short.

"Ah, this must be Darguni. Yes, I see why you don't want him to risk the portals again." 

"Boys, this is Tyrande Whisperwind, my mother."

"Momma?" Bradly stepped forward. "If this is your Mom, does that make her my grandmother?"

"Yeah does it?" Darguni bounced.

Tyrande stared at Elunara.

"I guess technically it does."

Bradly bounced. "Not only do I have the most awesome momma ever, I have the most awesome grandmother ever!" He tossed his hands in the air. "I always wanted to visit Darnassus and see her, but we couldn't afford the boat."

"Why does this child call you mother?"

"Because I'm his mother." Elunara shrugged. 

"You never told me you had another child."

"I didn't." 

Bradly hugged Elunara. "She's my momma because she wanted me."

"If you must know, Bradly would be considered another one of my rescues. He is my son in every way that counts"

"And my brother!" Darguni declared with pride in his voice.

"Just like our papas are now brothers too!" 

Tyrande just stared. 

"Yeah, that one breaks even MY brain."

Jordan laughed and put a hand on her shoulder. "It's a guy thing. But I think we'll take the same philosophy, we're brothers in every way that counts."

"I am going to withhold my comment out of the fact there are children present." Elunara grinned. 

"GUYS!" Lydia ran up, huffing and puffing. "Guys, come quick! They're doing something weird to the training yard!" Lydia paused and looked up. "Sorry, Miss Elunara, I know you can't come see. Please forgive me." She bowed. "I hope you're well soon." She turned and bolted. 

The boys looked at each other and took off running. 

Elunara looked at Jordan. "Last I checked, most brothers aren't fucking the same woman, often at the same time."

"Since when is anyone in this family "most" anything?" He laughed. 

Tyrande smacked her forehead. "I did not need that mental image."

"A phrase often heard around Elunara." Jordan giggled. 

Tyrande took a deep breath. "I am having the training ring purified. I dare not ask you to come back with me to Darnassus, so I am bringing it to you. I have brought my priestesses and water from the temple. I have also sent for some of the purified moonwell waters both on our world and this. It may take us a few days to get everything set up for you. Now tell me about that skull."

"It was a souvenir from my last conquest."

"I need it."

"Well, I told Renwa that I'd let you purify it. But I do want to keep it."

"I need it for the ritual." 

With a sigh, Elunara untied the ropes and lowered the skull. "I'll get someone to bring it down."

"For now, I agree that you should stay here." She eyed Jordan in nothing but his pants. "I will assume you're well occupied."

"Yes, I do have a husband or two locked in a closet somewhere." 

Jordan laughed and kissed her shoulder. "Yeah, I think I can keep the little wife busy."

She snorted. 

"Wife?"

"Oh, yeah. We've decided that Jordan has earned the title husband." She reached back and brushed his hair. "So now I'm up to two husbands and a wife. Quite nice really."

"Only you." Tyrande sighed. 

A few days later, Elunara stood at the edge of the training yard. The entire town had come out, and everyone watched with interest. Pools of water traced patterns on the ground, and large moon stones were placed in various points. The skull had been placed in the center. 

"Come, child. We must begin."

Elunara nodded and stepped into the ring. The waters began to glow all around her as she made her way to the center. She knelt down as instructed, hands on the skull. The priestess stepped in and took their positions. Her family waited on the outside ring, waiting to be called. Savage whimpered, not being allowed to join her. Yoona started bouncing and he sat on her. 

Tyrande eyed the exchange, but did not react. 

A pair of unexpected guests came up from the back way and stood by the tree overlooking the training yard. 

"What's going on?" Tylia whispered. 

"I'm not sure." Charnak shook his head. 

Tyrande stepped forth and raised her arms. "We will begin." 

Tyrande and the priestesses began to sing and channel their spell. The water began to glow and tendrils of light wrapped around Elunara. She was lifted into the air, her arms out to the sides, feet dangling below.

"Into position!" Tyrande cried, and Elunara's family ran out into their positions around her. Even the cats took places on either side of her feet. All raised their arms up in the air. 

As the light filled her, a black cloud poured forth and surrounded her body. 

"NO! SHE IS MINE!" A voice boomed. 

"YOU WILL NOT HAVE HER!" Grogek cried.

"SHE IS OURS!" Tulani yelled. 

Elunara began to scream, her head laid back, hands curling.

"FIGHT MOMMA!" The boys yelled.

"HER RAGE! HER ANGER! HER VENGENCE! SHE IS DELICIOUS."

"Baby! We're here for you! Listen to us!"

Everywhere, the townsfolk and the soldiers held their hands up in the air. "Elunara!" They called. "We are yours!" 

Elunara shrieked and many put their hands over their ears. "I!" Elunara yelled. "I WILL FIGHT YOU AGAIN! I HAVE YOUR SKULL! YOU WILL NOT HAVE MY BODY!" Brilliant, multi-colored wings sprouted from her back. The cloud was driven backwards. It surrounded the area and swirled. It darted in and out, trying to find an opening in the glowing aura. She pushed it back with her will. Her hand flexed and she summoned her dagger. Changing her hand position, she wielded it like a sword. "GIVE ME POWER!" She called. 

All at once, everyone present held out their hands, closed their eyes and chanted. "Love for our Elunara. For all she gives us!" 

She focused on her dagger and willed her energy into it. "I pierced your black heart before, I'll do it again!"

"MINE!" The cloud converged on her.

She swung out, thrusting blindly. She hacked at the cloud, tearing it apart bit by bit. 

Tyrande trust her hands up. "FIGHT MY DAUGHTER!"

"FIGHT!" They chanted. "FIGHT!" 

"YOU... WILL... NOT... WIN!" She slashed out, cutting into the heart of the mass. Slowly, she cut more down, as the inky presence shrieked in pain. "I RULE HERE! THEY ARE UNDER MY PROTECTION AND YOU CANNOT HAVE THEM!" Her blade struck true and it began to fall apart. THIS IS MY WORLD AND I WILL PURGE YOU FROM IT! BEHOLD THE POWER OF THE GODDESS!" With a scream, she released a massive wave of energy. Many were knock off of their feet, including Tylia. 

Charnak bent down and help her up. "This is the power of our goddess." He whispered in awe. 

Elunara began to fall from her position and she angled the blade down, landing on top of the skull splitting it down the middle. "YOU ARE VANQUISHED!"

There was a piercing shriek that had all grabbing their ears, as the black soot fell to the ground and sizzled in the purified waters. She sat back and stared at the hole she had left in the skull. 

"Ok, now you really are going on the outside of my house." She grinned as she patted the skull. 

Her family converged on her. 

"Momma? Are you alright?" Darguni climbed into her lap. 

"That was fun, can we do it again?" She laughed. 

Bradly ran a hand over the skull. "Cool."

"How are you feeling, Baby?" Jordan stooped down and brushed her hair out of her face. 

"Giddy. Like everything is funny as hell."

"Probably the power surge." Grogek brushed his fingers down her hair. 

Tyrande knelt in front of Elunara and put her hand on her forehead. "I do not feel the presence any longer."

"That Night Elf is HUGE." Tylia marveled.

"And she called the goddess her daughter."

"Fascinating. We should tell the others what we have witnessed."

"Yes, we should." He took her hand and turned to leave. 

Elunara held up her dagger. "Who'd have thought this sucker would make a fitting sword?" She waved it around. "Woosh, woosh." 

Jordan took the dagger out of her hand. "Uh, that's new." The dagger disappeared.

"Probably energy euphoria." Tulani sighed. "Just how she gets weird when she's overloaded."

"I can't believe the WHOLE town fed me!" Elunara flopped backwards and giggled at the sky.

Grogek reached down and scooped her up. "Let's get her to bed." 

"You're always so pretty." She patted his cheek. 

Grogek shook his head and began to walk home. 

Renwa frowned. "Is she alright?"

Elunara reached out and ran her finger on his lips. "I always did like kissing you. The rest was ok."

Renwa flushed red. "Uhh..."

"She's in power overload euphoria. She's going to say weird things for awhile."

Zelinnia laughed. "Oh, this is priceless. I'm so making fun of her when she comes out of it."

Renwa laughed. "You're just happy the tables have turned."

Elunara giggled and booped Zelinnia on the nose. "And you always blush so pretty to the tips of your... tips." 

"Would it be considered murder if I killed her right now?" Zelinnia crossed her arms and blushed. 

Grogek laughed. "Please forgive her and let me get her home before she reveals entirely too much." 

"Too late." Zelinnia grumbled.



For the Whored Ch. 098



"Ugh, could someone please tell that goat to stop tap dancing on my head?" Elunara grumbled to the room.

"Ah, you're awake." Tulani laid a cool cloth on Elunara's head.

"How many days did I lose this time?"

"Only four."

"Bleh." She sat up and rubbed her head. "I don't feel drained."

"No, you had overload euphoria. I'm certain you had to sleep off the excess energy in your system and are at a normal level now."

"Please tell me they kept the skull." 

Tulani laughed. "Yes, Jordan and Grogek got it back into place."

"Sweet." She shook her head. "I can't believe the whole damned town pumped me full of energy. That was crazy."

"So you do remember what happened?"

"Yeah, there's some fuzzy stuff, like I have no idea what the hell I was screaming."

Tulani passed her a cup.

Elunara laughed and drank. "Anyway, that's about all I remember."

"Do you remember telling Johnathan that you liked kissing him?" Zelinnia was leaning against the door, her arms crossed. 

"I did what?" Elunara stared in shock. 

"You... run your mouth when you have overload Euphoria." Tulani giggled. 

"Oh, Gods." She smacked her forehead. 

"Payback's a bitch." Zelinnia laughed.

"Fine. I always thought Renwa was one of the best kissers of the men I've had. He just wasn't the best at the rest of it." 

"Well, that's good to know." Renwa stepped into the room.

Elunara smacked her forehead again.

"HA! Now I get to laugh at YOU for it!" Zelinnia pointed. 

"Yeah, that was like, twice out of HOW many times have you done it?"

"Don't care, still get to."

"I don't recall you ever complaining." Renwa raised an eyebrow. 

"First of all, I liked you, didn't want to insult you by giving you instructions. Second of all, by time I felt comfortable enough to give you further instruction, I was already getting the clingy vibe off of you and knew I had to bail soon." She gave a shaky shrug. "I could have kissed you for hours and been happy." She felt her face go hot.

Renwa's eyebrows shot up. "I'm going to have to process this another time." He sighed. 

"Now I get to kiss him for hours." Zelinnia grinned. 

Elunara snorted. "Excuse me; I get to kiss ALL the men for hours. Preferably my own." Elunara rocked her head to the side. "And my wife... though I have to be honest, the fangs add something interesting."

"Interesting to what?" Grogek stepped in the room. He brushed past the others and went to the opposite side of the bed and sat down beside her. 

"Kissing." 

"Ah, I was thinking the other thing."

"Oh, that one's just mean." She grinned at him. 

"Do I want to know?" Renwa shook his head.

"Well, she does go absolutely crazy when they tickle her thighs" Grogek grinned as he rubbed a finger over the tip of one of this large fangs. 

She elbowed him. 

"Nope, I didn't want to know." Renwa pinched his nose. 

"Is she awake?" Tyrande stuck her head in the door. 

"And back to normal it sounds like." Grogek chuckled. 

"MOMMA!" Both boys dove on the bed. 

"Hey, don't forget me." Jordan wedged past the crowd and tucked on to the bed behind Elunara. 

Tulani giggled and took her place in the bed. 

"I feel like I have a throne of people." Elunara laughed. "Comfy, yet lumpy."

"I am endlessly impressed with how many of this town stepped forward and offered up their energy for you." Tyrande shook her head. "I am still in disbelief."

"It's freaking crazy is what it is." Elunara laughed.

"You have come far from an angry little girl who humiliated someone out of spite."

"I wasn't little; I was almost twenty by that point."

"You will always be little to me."

"Yeah, you gained like three feet in height."

Tyrande laughed. "That I did."

"Have you people been hanging out in my house for the past four days?" She sighed. 

"Just about." Zelinnia laughed. "Abigail is asleep downstairs and Ina..."

"I'm here. Whoever designed your stairs needs smacked." She sighed. 

Elunara winced. "Sorry."

"I know your mother is more than qualified to check you out, but I wanted a look at ya myself." 

Elunara helped her get in the bed. 

Ina put a hand to her forehead and closed her eyes. Ina moved her hands up and down. "You seem well enough and no ill effects." Ina put her hands on her hip. "I don't know what to do with you some days."

"Welcome to the family." Grogek, Tulani and Jordan all said in unison. They blinked at each other before laughing. 

Elunara gave a grand sigh. "I love you all too."

"Amazing display of loyalty, that." Ina laughed. "Of course, so was the ring. Who'd have thought that all of them would have contributed?"

"I know. I'm losing my touch." Elunara sighed. 

There was a scrabbling sound of nails on the floorboards. Out of nowhere, Yoona bounded in and dove into the bed, knocking Ina over and sending the boys bouncing.

"Goddammit Yoona!" Elunara winced as claws went into her leg. 

Savage strolled in to the room, put his paws on the bed and grabbed Yoona by the scruff with his teeth. He yanked her down into the floor. She tried to bounce again, but he whacked her in the face and sat on her. Savage rubbed his head against Elunara's hand. She sighed and scrubbed her hand on his head. Tugging back the blanket, she inspected her shredded leg. Savage put his front paws on the bed and licked her leg. 

"That..." Tyrande blinked. "Was strange." 

"Yoona has been a complete menace." Elunara sighed. 

"She's destroyed thousands of gold worth of fabric and many hours of my work." Tulani crossed her arms. 

"And she's eaten several people's baskets!" Bradly added with a giggle. 

"Ugh, the whole town is on alert, that when Yoona destroys something, I will pay for it." Elunara rubbed her healing leg.

"Oh, dear. I never thought she would be such trouble. She comes from good breeding stock."

"The boys have been helping get some of that kitten energy out of her, but Savage has been a huge help. Of course, his version of help involves sitting on her." Elunara laughed.

"His markings are fascinating."

"He's from here. He was sort of an accidental tame." Elunara gave him a good scratch.

"The first time Momma saved me." Bradly smiled and scratch Savage's head. 

"Yeah, that's a story on its own."

"I can tell Grand momma later." Bradly bounced up and down.

"Sure thing, sweetie." Elunara brushed his hair out of his face. 

"Being called Grand momma feels so strange." 

Bradly flushed. "I'll call you whatever you want me too."

Tyrande smiled. "You may call me Grand Momma, it's just something I'll have to get used to being called." 

Renwa cleared his throat. "I think Zelinnia and I should be going. Now that we know Elunara is alright."

Zelinnia sighed. "Yes, I guess." 

"Or you could just climb in the bed with everyone else." Elunara laughed. 

Zelinnia shocked everyone by taking a leap into the bed. The ensuing avalanche caused them all to tumble out of the bed. Elunara grabbed out and pulled Jordan down, which caused the whole bed to slide out of the frame. 

"I didn't think you'd take me serious!" Elunara cackled. 

Tyrande and Renwa leaned over. "Do you need any help?"

"You can detangle your wife." 

"Help!" Zelinnia whimpered with a giggle. 

"That was AWESOME!" Darguni cried.

"Let's do it again!" Bradly cheered.

Elunara put her hands on Zelinnia's chest and belly to help push her up. "Hey, when were you going to tell me about the second one?" 

"Second one what?" Zelinnia grabbed Renwa's hand and tried to stand, but slipped in the sheet. 

Elunara steadied her. "That one."

"Tha..." Zelinnia froze and stared at Elunara. She looked down at her stomach. 

Elunara's eyes went wide. "You didn't know?"

Renwa furrowed his brow. "You mean she's..."

"Ah, heh. I'm sorry." Elunara bit her lip. "I didn't realize..."

Jordan was in the process of helping Tulani stand up. "What are you two on about?"

Elunara winced. "Zelinnia's pregnant." 

Jordan almost dropped Tulani. "Shit." 

"Can you all finish getting off of me?" Grogek grumbled. "I took the brunt of that."

"Sorry, Sugarbear." She tried to detangle herself, but he wrapped his arms around her. 

"Eh, you can stay until EVERYONE ELSE GETS OFF OF ME!"

The boys giggled as they scrabbled away, Jordan helped haul Tulani to her feet, and Renwa and Zelinnia were a bit busy in an embrace. 

Ina wiped herself off. "I'm getting out of this madhouse before I get trampled again." She grumbled. "I swear by the light, I've never been so mistreated." She muttered as she left. 

"I'll have to give her a nice present." Elunara laughed. 

Tyrande laughed. "I agree with her, this is a madhouse."

Elunara stood up and turned around, holding out her hand. "Come on, Sugarbear."

"Oh! Oh, my. My baby's not even a year old and I'm already having another?" Zelinnia yanked at her hair. "What am I going to do?"

"Have two babies?" Elunara shrugged. "How the hell should I know? I'm still figuring out the first one." 

"We'll send to Stormwind for a nanny." Renwa tapped the side of his finger to his chin. 

"We'll help!" Both boys raised their hands. 

"He'll be just like me!" Darguni said.

"Maybe we'll have another friend."

"Well, he's gotta age first." 

"Maybe we could send him through the portals?"

"But Renwa and Zelinnia are from the same time."

"Oh yeah, that won't work."

"It doesn't matter 'cause we have to defend them anyway."

"Yeah, 'cause they're younger"

"So they need us."

"We'll be the best guardian big brothers ever."

"Yeah when Jordan teaches us to use weapons."

"I want to learn swords like my dad."

"I want an axe like my papa."

Tyrande watched the back and forth banter with some interest. "Do they do this often?"

"All the damned time." Elunara shook her head. "It takes some getting used to, and they can give you a headache."

"Fascinating."

"They are brothers, in every way that counts."

Both boys ran up to Zelinnia. "Can we feel your belly?" They said in unison. 

She stared. "I'm not far enough along to feel."

"Aw." 

"But, you can when I am..."

"Yeay!"

Elunara laughed. "They either finish each other sentences, or they talk in unison. It's kind of freaky." 

"What are you going to name him?" 

"Boys, Zel's not far enough along to even know that yet."

They wrapped their arms around Zelinnia and laid their heads on her belly. 

"We'll protect you,"

"No matter what you are."

Zelinnia stared at Elunara, completely dumbfounded. 

Elunara threw her hands up. "Don't ask me. I didn't start that."

"Bye, Mommy Zel!" Darguni grinned.

"Why'd you call her that?" Bradly cocked his head to the side.

"Because she's a mommy. Duh." 

"Oh, I thought it was like Momma Tuly."

"Nah, Momma Tuly is Momma Tuly because she's Momma's wife, so she's our other Momma. But Zel is a Mommy because she has little babies."

"Ohh, that makes sense." 

"Come on, let's get Yoona's stuff and take her for a walk."

"OK! I'll get the bag."

Zelinnia just pointed out the door. "THE HELL?"

Elunara laughed hysterically. "You got me, Sweetie."

Renwa's mouth moved, but no sound came out. "That was different." He squeaked. 

Grogek laughed. "I swear, my love, you have imparted some strange lessons on those boys."

"I didn't! I swear!" 

The boys ran back in and hooked lead to Yoona's collar.

"I have to ask..." Elunara scrubbed her hands on the boy's hair. "Where in the world did you get the whole bit about being Zelinnia's babies' protector?"

"From you, Momma." Darguni tossed Yoona a bite. 

"Me?"

"Yeah." Bradly twiddled his foot on the floor. "You protected us, you saved us."

"I'm different, but that's ok, because you taught me it's ok."

"You saved me, over and over again, even after I was so mean."

"You protect everyone, even after they were so mean to you."

"We want to protect everyone too."

"Except, we're so little."

"But Mommy Zel's babies are the little ones now." 

"So we have to be big protectors."

"Until they can get big enough to protect themselves,"

"From the people who would be mean,"

"Before even getting to know them."

Elunara stooped down and pulled them both into an embrace. "You're the best kind of people." She whispered. "Now, go run Yoona out." She laughed and scrubbed her hands on their heads. 

They yanked at the lead and pulled a grumpy Yoona out the door. 

Savage rubbed against Elunara's hip and she gave him a scratch. 

"I think I'm going to cry for a week." Zelinnia sniffled. 

"I suddenly understand very clearly what others have seen, that I never could see." Tyrande shook her head. "Every time we meet again, there is something new. Something miraculous."

"If you start crying on me, I'm going to do something really offensive, just out of spite." Elunara crossed her arms. 

"Love..." Grogek sighed. 

"I will nut punch you, don't think I won't."

Grogek wrapped his arms around her, followed by Jordan and Tulani, finally Renwa and Zelinnia. 

"GAH! No group hugs!" Elunara coughed. "Seriously, can't... breathe." She whimpered. They all released her at once and she fell to the floor. "Ow!" She squeaked.

"Sorry, love." Grogek picked her up and sat her on her feet. 

"I desperately want to go outside. Am I still confined to quarters, boss?"

"No, I think it's safe to let you out of your cage."

"Do you know how much of a pain in the ass it will be to redo my schedule?"

"By this point, I figured you're used to it."

She sighed. "You'd figure I'd just pin time on my calendar "demon possession"." She jogged down the stairs. She opened the door and quickly closed it. "Why is there a mob in front of my house?"

Renwa frown and opened the door. "No idea."

Linda stepped forward. "The boys said you were up and about."

"Ah." Elunara sighed. "Yes, I am." She stepped forward and everyone knelt before her. "Whaaaat's going on?"

"We all heard how you challenged that... whatever it was. How you were trying to protect us from it." Linda clasped her hands together. "It was marvelous. The town would like to pledge their loyalty to you." She laughed. "I have been chosen as messenger, because you have been so kind to me and done so much for my daughter. I..." Linda knelt on one knee. "I pledge my loyalty to you as well."

Elunara stepped back and slammed the door. "Going back to bed, still hallucinating."

Grogek grabbed her by the shoulders and steered her back out the door. 

"Ok, I'll be completely honest. I have no damned clue what I was screaming out there."

"We do." Linda smiled. 

"But, I was the one possessed by a demon. I'm the reason the reason the town was ever in any danger."

"You stopped it."

"Oh, for the love of Elune, stand up. I don't need people to kneel to show me their loyalty. That's just dumb." 

"They say that orc calls you Goddess. We're starting to believe it ourselves. You must truly be blessed by the Gods themselves."

"She is a favored of Elune." Tyrande nodded.

"Oh, don't YOU start." Elunara muttered. "This is SO bullshit." She pointed to Grogek. "And you KNEW it!"

"Actually..." Jordan scratched the back of his head. "We all did."

"WHAT?"

"You've been unconscious for four frickin' days; we didn't just sit there and wait on you to wake up. We took turns." 

Elunara yanked at her hair. "AUGH!"

"I told you she wouldn't take it well." Tulani sighed. 

"Well, of course not, she's Elunara." Jordan gestured. "If she DID take it well, I'd be concerned. 

"JUST FUCK ALL OF YOU!" She took off running. 

Jordan sighed and ran his fingers through his hair. "And there she goes..."

"I'll bring her back." Grogek sighed, calmly walking after her.

"Should we go after her?" Tulani frowned.

"No. Grogek knows her best." Jordan shook his head.



For the Whored Ch. 099



By time she reached the clearing, she had a good deal of mean worked up and began beating the hell out of a nearby tree. Her hands were cut, bleeding, and sappy. She briefly wondered if this was one of the poisonous ones, but frowned as her wounds healed themselves

"Love?"

She sat down and pouted. "What do you want?"

"Love, don't be like that." 

"Goddamned hero worshipping fucktards."

Grogek's eyebrows rose. "You are incredibly angered by this."

"It was ridiculous enough when that TWIT believed it, but that I could USE, that I could manipulate. But to have random ass idiots believe it? From the place where I live and work, believe it? That's just humiliatingly STUPID!" She gestured back towards town. "I liked my life better when I was just another mission specialist, one that women refused to have around their husbands." She turned away and crossed her arms.

"Would you? Would you really?"

She hunched her shoulders at the anger in his voice.

"Would you really like to go back to that life? That's a life without Bradly, without Darguni. There was no Tulani, there was no me. Sure, Jordan was there, but you didn't have his heart. Would you give up your family, just to have your old life back?"

She sighed. "No. You know I wouldn't."

"Those people love you for who you have carved yourself in to. Just as our children said. They judged you before they could know you. You have shown them your true face." Grogek knelt down and put his hands on her shoulders. "My love, I agree with you, their actions are completely silly. But their hearts are in the right place. Think of what you have done." He adjusted so he could wrap his legs around her as he massaged her shoulders. "Think of what you have given them. What you've given me."

She sighed and ran her hands on his legs. "I'm no hero."

"I tend to disagree. You gave me your faith. You gave Tulani her life. You gave the town a means to identify their dead. For Jordan, you gave him a chance, and then gave him his life. In Renwa you have a lifelong friend, and you gave him a wife. You gave Zelinnia her life. Bradly a family, Lydia her legs, a mother her child's happiness, and the list is endless." He wrapped his arms around her. 

She leaned back against him. "I hate it when you're reasonable."

He chuckled. "That just means I'm getting through to you." 

"I've killed more people than I've saved." She muttered. "Have you ever wondered my kill count? Because I remember every one of them like I was looking at them right now."

He chuckled. "Second to Grommash, would you like to know how many I've killed? Because I couldn't tell you if I tried." He stroked his thumbs down her belly. "Do you really keep them all in your head?"

"Photographic memory, remember? Yeah, I see them. I can always see them. No matter what I have said, about being able to slit their throats and forget they exist..."

"No wonder you think you're so awful." He murmured.

"I honestly still feel no emotion towards any of them. It wasn't until Ricky died that I started to wonder why I had never felt pain at the death of my targets."

"The goblin?"

"I love you Grogek, but Ricky was my trigger. He... liked me. He looked up to me, he was like the first kid I'd ever had. I didn't know what to do with him. And then he died, and this part of me broke. I couldn't even understand it. I'd had comrades die before, but I never felt anything for them either. I have never been able to figure out what was different about Ricky." She shook her head. "Some days, when I'm alone with my thoughts, I replay that awful moment." She whispered. "No matter how much I fight it, it comes back. When he dies in front of me, it's like one of my own family dying." She wiped her nose. 

"I never realized he had that effect on you."

"I don't... I don't like to think about it too hard. I certainly didn't want to tell you, because I felt like your belief in me was on a lie. You did open my heart, but it was Ricky who picked the lock."

He kissed her shoulder. "I wish you had told me this before, though it doesn't change anything."

She turned and laid her head on his shoulder, curling up in his lap. "I don't want people to like me, because I haven't decided if I like myself. I liked myself just fine before Ricky, was proud of all the awful things I did, who I hurt... Then suddenly I had to question all of it. On the grand scale of things, I like myself just fine. I'm still proud of my past. I was the best, goddamn it. I had THE highest kill ratio of any mission specialist. I could con my way into any damned thing, if I just believed it hard enough myself. I got through on confidence alone. 

But, suddenly, I'm in this place where a mission specialist means pretty much nothing. I told Zelinnia that she needed to find her place in town or she would go crazy. I meant that as much to myself as anything. I HAD to find something to do, or I'd go mad and kill everyone, just to escape. So, I built this strange little life. And as it grew, so did the panic behind it. I really don't know what I'm doing with myself some days. I fly by the seat of my pants and hope to hell something sticks. Hell, I healed that little girl's legs just to see if I could."

"You did an unselfish act for a selfish reason."

"Exactly!" She sighed. "Sometimes, I feel like I can't be a good person, because I have all this blood on my hands, and don't even mind that it's there." 

"It was in this very spot, that you stood and read pages from your books. I had stolen them as examples. I wanted to make Lama understand why I fell in love with you. It was because of all that blood on your hands. You were so fearless, so unapologetic, and you made me genuinely afraid. I fell in love with that. But it was also how sweet, how kind, and how giving you could be. Those nights we lay in that room you'd commanded out of Grommash, were some of my favorite moments. I felt like I was with an angry wolf, which could tear me apart, yet being in your arms was a heaven I'd only imagined.

I know those are your favorite moments too, you hung them on our walls. You were soft and seductive, yet so damned strong. I thought you were an illusion, a test, a falsehood. Oh, I knew you were somehow getting information out, but I couldn't prove it. That first night in that room, I was terrified of you. I knew it was a trick to slit my throat. How you'd survive the attempt, I didn't know, but I was ready for you. Over and over, I waited for you to make your move, and then you kissed me, and it all fell apart." He sighed. 

"I killed your sister in cold blood, and still you apologized to ME. I... I wanted to hug you. I wanted to comfort you, to apologize for having to make a point. I never cared about killing her, but I wasn't sure how much she meant to you. I had to bite down on the urge and make myself hard. I told myself that the feelings of one gullible orc meant nothing in the long run. But, I wound up finding reasons not to kill you."

He laughed. "That's just who you are. Maybe it's not the you before Ricky, but it's certainly the you now." He nuzzled her hair. "It warms my heart to know you cared then."

"I was so mean to you. No, I was mean to myself, making you wait so long for me to tell you I loved you. I just couldn't trust the emotion. I've started listening to myself when those random moments find me, instead of doubting, stabbing and dissecting, waiting for the lie..." She sighed. 

"I know. I knew then, I just had to work a little harder to get you to trust your own heart."

"Bah."

"Yes, Bah." He chuckled. "Come back with me, my love, my vicious little she wolf." He hugged her tightly. "Yes, it's stupid and silly, but it makes them feel better about the situation. You did something they can't understand, and this is how they deal with it."

"You killed it. I don't like you no more."

He laughed. "Oh, stop being a big baby."

"You did NOT just go there." She crossed her arms. "I should fuck you on the spot I killed your sister. That'd be completely unheroic and crass."

"I'm not opposed to the idea; if it'll help you deal with some of your anger."

Elunara pressed her mouth to his, and he ran his hands up her back. Nipping at his lips, she tugged his shirt up and off. He yanked hers over her head, and she pressed her breasts against his chest. They devoured each other, as their hands roamed each other's bodies. He grabbed her pants and tugged them down and off, before grabbing her hips and pressing her against him. She wrapped her legs around his waist. 

Breaking contact, he went for her breast, taking it in his mouth. With a groan, she leaned her head back. Snaking her hand down, she tugged him free of his pants. He shoved her down over him and slammed into her with a grunt. Lifting her ass, he pumped her up and down as her wet center coated him. 

She was surprised when he shoved her back and flipped her over. He got on his knees and dug his fingers in her hips, shoving himself back into those wet folds with a groan. With a grin, she buried her fingers in the soft grass and gave a sighing moan. Quickly, he shoved himself in and out, one thumb pressing into her ass. When she clamped down on him, he gave in to the urge.

Tugging himself free, he slipped a couple of fingers in her. "Some days, I can't believe this is mine."

She turned over on her side and grinned. "Mm, keep doing that." 

With a grin, he moved in and out of her with a lazy pace. Closing her eyes, she ran her hand over his. Since she wasn't watching, he bent down and licked her. He chuckled at her jolt. She grinned down at him. 

"Well have at it then."

"Oh, I'm just enjoying playing with my wife, and watching her squirm."

"Now who's being mean?"

"Well, you have been exhibiting some bad behavior."

"Bah."

"Word of the day it seems." He shifted up and buried himself in her again. Gentle as a whisper, he brushed his lips to hers. "Some of us just like worshipping you." He murmured, slipping in and out of her.

Her legs came up around his sides. "Mine." She whispered. "My husband." She pulled his face down to hers and licked and teased, enjoying the taste of his mouth. He shuddered against her and she clamped down to him. 

He pressed his lips to hers and she sighed, running her fingers on his cheeks. "Come on, my love. Where's that warrior goddess we all know and love?"

"Hiding in the woods like a twat." She muttered. "I swear, if they're still congregated in front of our house..."

"How about a duel? Then we can know you're truly cleansed. Plus, I know how you like to work out a good mean."

"Ugh, you know how to work me." 

"I plan on working you plenty tonight." He grinned. 

"I like the sound of that."

She walked back with him, hand in hand. She sighed at the salutes and the kneeling, trying to ignore them until they got to the ring. Elunara grabbed her staff and Grogek summoned his axe. 

"Well, let's begin." 

As they fought, more and more people came to watch. Elunara had gotten better in her short time, and Grogek was impressed by her ability.

"My Love, you're going to have to show yourself in the training yard more often." He dodged another hit. "I believe you've improved over night."

"This feels fabulous! I might have to!" 

"Well, it's good to see Elunara feeling better." Jordan grinned. 

Tulani gave a happy sigh. "Yes, maybe we can return to normal for awhile."

Jordan shrugged and wrapped an arm around Tulani's waist. "What's normal, sister of mine?"

"Sister?"

"Ask the kids." 

"Ah."

Tyrande giggled. "You two are a sight. Elunara's battle skill is impressive."

"Looks like she's picked up a few moves." Jordan considered. "I wonder if she learned anything from the possession."

"Maybe." 

"HIYA!" Elunara cried. 

Grogek hooked his axe around her ankle and brought her down. 

"Hey!" 

He dodged again. 

"Momma's definitely feeling better." Bradly nodded.

"Which is good." Darguni nodded. They sat on the platform. 

"I still can't believe she's doing all of that with a staff." Said one kid.

"But she's so awesome at it." One of the girls remarked. 

They both fought until they were tired. Huffing and puffing they faced each other. Elunara went for the launch, but tripped on her own feet and face planted the ground.

"Are you alright?" 

"Ow." She rubbed her nose. "I think I finally worked off that boost."

Grogek held out a hand. She took his hand and stood up. "Did you trip on purpose?"

"Sort of? I was going to trip, but I over did it." She laughed. "I meant to catch myself before I hit the ground." 

"Feeling better?" Jordan kissed her.

"Yeah. I worked it out."

Tulani smiled and kissed Elunara. "Good, then I can get back to work."

"You better. I need you to design an outfit for Ina." Elunara grinned. 

"Oh?" 

"Yeah. But first, I'm going to try Tippy's. I need a bribe to get Ina to plan a birthday party for Darguni." She waved and kept on walking. 

Pointedly ignoring everyone, she made her way into Tippy's inn. 

Tippy came out from her kitchen and crossed her arms. "I'm mad at you."

"Oh, thank Elune; everything is right with the world!" Elunara flopped down in a chair and held her head. "I was starting to think the whole world had gone daffy."

"YOU," Tippy shoved her finger in Elunara's face. "Never told me you and Jordan got married!"

"Oh, that. One morning I woke up and thought "I have the two yummiest husbands ever" and then I realized I said husband, so I told Jordan, and now he's my husband and I'm his wife. No marriage required."

Tippy's mouth hung open. "Ok, now that's not even fair." She wagged her finger in Elunara's face. "You spent all this time telling me that marriage isn't needed to make people happy, then you go and start this shit. You have got to be joking." Tippy yanked her own hair. "I'm so damned mad at you. You can't even have the decency to have a real marriage like real people; you gotta just go and DECLARE him your husband. ARGH!" 

"Uhhh, I guess this is a bad time to ask for a favor?"

"WHAT?" 

"Well, I kind of need a bribe for Ina, because I want to do a birthday party for Darguni. I can tell you that Tyrande Whisperwind will be eating your food."

Tippy grabbed Elunara's hands. "SHE WILL?"

"But, I pissed off Ina, so... I need something edible to bribe her into doing the party."

"Wait right there, I'll whip it up." Tippy practically bounced back into her kitchen. 

She came out a little while later with a wrapped package. "One banana bread, ready to go."

"You can get bananas out here?"

"Not really, but I found a fascinating fruit that tastes similar. It's Ina's favorite dish." Tippy waved her hands. "Now scoot, dinner rush should be starting soon."

"Thanks Tippy." 

"Have to work up something special for Tyrande Whisperwind." She muttered as she walked back into her kitchen.

Elunara jogged through town to the healer building, trying to avoid conversation. "Ina?" She stuck here head in. 

Ina put her hands on her hips. "What do YOU want?"

"Brought you a gift." She handed over the package. 

Ina eyed the package before taking it and opening it up. She narrowed her eyes. "What are you after?"

"Can you plan a birthday party for Darguni in two days?"

"Oh. Is that this month?" 

"Yeah. So strange." Elunara sighed. "He's only three, and yet I'm planning for seven."

Ina rubbed her leg. "We'll make it work."

"Thanks Ina."

She decided she was a coward for running everywhere she had to go, but it was easier than dealing with everyone. She ducked in the house and sighed. 

"Tough day?"

Elunara jumped backwards and stared at Tyrande. "Don't DO that!"

"Something tells me you're less worried about an attack, and more worried about fawning fans."

"Bah, they're all idiots."

"I'm not going to bother to tell you how to think, you've never listened to me anyway."

"Hey! She can learn!" Elunara rolled her eyes and flopped on the couch next to her mother.

"I also know what it's like to have sudden fame and adoration shoved on me, and put into a place I didn't quite understand. Of course, I was less "idiots" and more "I can't live up to this." 

"Yeah, but you were already leader of the Priestesses of the Moon."

"I was talking before that," She shook her head. "I did the best that I could, and when Fandral went missing, I had to step up. It's just been one trial after another and all I've done is the best I know how. I now believe that you and I are more alike than we care to think." Tyrande rubbed Elunara's leg. "I'm still having difficulty understanding you, but I do know how you feel right now. What I've never seen, is you less than confident. You've always made the best of what you had to work with."

"One of these days, you should read my books."

"Perhaps when this campaign on Draenor is over, and you can come to our time on a permanent basis." Tyrande smiled. 

"That would be nice." Elunara sighed. "But who knows when that will be. In any event, I think we might wind up in Stormwind. I don't know, we'd have to figure it all out. I know I can't wait to show Tulani Exodar, and Jordan wants to show Stormwind to Grogek. I think Bradly might miss Stormwind as well."

"You have a hell of a family." Tyrande laughed. 

"By the way, I'm planning a birthday party for Darguni in two days. Please stay... or Tippy will kill me with her bare hands." Elunara laughed. 

"I'd be glad to."

Tyrande laughed. "I must admit, you certainly know how to put on a party."

"Yeah, well, Tippy and Ina did all the work." Elunara sipped the punch. 

"It's still quite impressive how everyone comes together for one little boy's party."

"I think at this point, they just enjoy an excuse to party."

"I should let you know, I have arranged to slip back to Darnassus before the night is done."

"As long as you say good bye to the boys."

"Oh, I intend to."
