Dragon Emperor 15: From Human to Dragon to God
Page 19
He had a good point. There weren’t cell phones to call 911 here, and the only hope anyone had for a quick response was magical. Without a mage, they had no chance to get help before the danger became deadly.
“I’ll work on that,” I promised. “When we have a solution, you’ll know about it.”
“Thank you, my lord,” Tomas replied and lowered his head. “We are forever grateful.”
“And loyal,” Trapper added.
“I expect nothing less.” I offered a grim smile before I tucked the beast’s head back into the satchel and tossed it up to Eskandar. Then I waved as I rushed to the edge of town, shifted back into my dragon body, and joined the white dragon in the sky.
“Now what?” he asked as he gestured to the bags.
“Now, we deliver the message,” I answered as I took the knapsack and satchel in my claws.
“Alright.” Eskandar gave me a confused look before I turned and flew toward the Breach.
As soon as we were over the tear, I opened the knapsack and let the body parts fall into the giant, murky hole. Then I tugged the head from the satchel and dropped it into the biggest part of the Breach.
“You see your little pets?” I roared. “I overcame them, and I’ll overcome you!”
Chapter 12
Eskandar and I landed in the courtyard in front of the White Jade Temple, and the moment we transformed into our human bodies, I felt exhaustion set in.
I was beat.
I knew my automatic healing would renew my muscles soon enough, but I felt like I needed about ten dinners and a two-day nap to make up for the day.
“You’ve returned!” Alyona ran out of the front doors to wrap her arms around my waist. “Thank the gods!”
“Your Highness!” one of the guards shouted as he ran out the door behind her and then breathed a sigh of relief. “Ah, Lord Evan. I was trying to keep an eye on the Princess, but she’s a feisty one.”
“Indeed, she is,” I chuckled as I pressed my lips to her hair. “Is your father upstairs?”
“Yes.” She nodded and looked up at me. “Tell me you have good news. He needs something to lift his spirits. He feels as though he’s failed because of these creatures that escaped the Breach.”
“He couldn’t have known they’d get out,” I insisted. “Let’s go talk to him.”
Alyona led us back inside and up the stairs to her father’s room, where the rest of my lovers waited anxiously. I hugged and kissed each of them before I realized someone was missing.
“Where’s Nike?” I asked.
“He went with Lex to check on the guards,” Rebecca answered. “He wanted to make sure everyone was ready in case the creatures came here.”
“Smart,” I murmured before I made my way to the balcony and walked around to the front of the king’s chair.
“Lord Evan, I pray you have succeeded,” he said as lines of worry wrinkled his skin.
“Of course, Your Eminence,” I replied. “We killed the beasts.”
“Beasts?” the king repeated with wide eyes. “More than one?”
“Six, Your Majesty,” Eskandar filled in. “Only one was evolved, and Lord Evan slayed him and several others.”
“And Eskandar handled a few himself,” I chimed in with a grin. “It was a pretty epic battle.”
“May I see them?” Rodion asked.
“Ah, no,” I answered as I rubbed the back of my neck. “I threw their bodies into the Breach.”
“Y-You did what?” he stammered. “Why would you do that?”
“To let their master know I mean business,” I growled as I clenched my fists at my sides. “I’m tired of him playing games with us. Olivier used to do the same bullshit, and it took way too long to figure out who he was. I’m not letting this guy take months to reveal himself.”
“And what if all you did was make him angry?” Rodion demanded. “What if he sends hordes of these creatures into Rahma now?”
“Then I’ll kill those, too,” I snickered. “Right now, all we know is someone in the Breach is pulling the strings. We don’t have a name, a face, anything! I had to do something!”
“That was foolish!” the king thundered.
“So is sitting around waiting for this guy to break out of the Breach and show us who he is!” I bellowed. “You have your job, and I have mine. Both of us will protect this world.”
The king and I had never disagreed so vehemently, and I felt Alyona’s gentle touch on my arm. Somehow, the anger burning through my blood slowly dissipated, and I took a deep breath as I turned from the king and stared out over the Breach.
“Perhaps the method isn’t the one you would have chosen, Your Majesty,” Eskandar finally said. “But Lord Evan has a point. We can’t fight an enemy we don’t know, and you both love our kingdom and world.”
“Exactly,” I muttered before I exhaled and turned back around to face the king. “I’m sorry for losing my temper, Your Majesty, but I don’t regret my decision. Sometimes, a bully has to be called out, so he can get angry and expose a weakness.”
“You may be right,” Rodion sighed as he rubbed tiredly at his face. “I just… I hate the unknown.”
“As do I,” I agreed. “And I hate the unknown even more when I’m bringing my child into it, so I have to do everything I can to clean this up before our baby arrives.”
“I understand.” Rodion nodded before he met my gaze. “You’re going to be a great father, Lord Evan.”
“I hope so.” I looped my fingers through Alyona’s. “Now, can we please get some food?”
“Oh, gods, you haven’t eaten since lunch!” my wife gasped. “Come now, we’ll get you fed.”
I smiled gratefully, and we all headed for the dining hall.
“So, you killed the beasts and dumped them into the Breach?” Laika whispered as we walked downstairs.
“Yep,” I muttered. “Do you think that was stupid? The king seems to think so.”
“No.” She shook her head, and her furry gray tail swished around behind her. “I think it was the perfect move to show your dominance.”
“Coming from another warrior, I’ll take that as a compliment,” I said with a smile.
“I thought it was bold,” Isabella nearly whispered.
“And do you like bold?” I asked as I arched an eyebrow at her.
“It can be… interesting,” she hedged, though a shiver ran through her slender body as I kept my eyes on her.
“I can be many kinds of interesting,” I said in a low voice as I stopped just outside the dining hall while everyone continued past us. “Would you like to find out the kind you like?”
“I-I, ah, my lord…” Isabella trailed off, but her eyes never left mine.
“Take your time,” I chuckled and took another step closer.
She opened her mouth, but no words came out, and I brushed a wayward silver hair from her forehead to tuck it behind her ear. She shivered again at the gentle contact, and I winked before I headed into the dining hall and found my seat.
Isabella trailed in the room after me, and she sat between Naomi and Miraya with a few not-so-subtle glances in my direction. I’d gotten under her skin, and we both knew it. She may be pure, but she’d already admitted it was of her own choice, which meant she could make up her own mind at any second.
A few minutes later, kitchen staff rushed in with trays of roasted ham and crispy bacon and casserole dishes full of rice with vegetables. The aromas were overwhelming, and I almost forgot about my encounter with the beautiful Nepin as I filled my plate and dug in. I hardly tasted the first few bites I inhaled, but soon, the scrumptious flavors of the meal began to hit my tongue.
Once my stomach stopped feeling like a black hole, I could focus on everyone around me. Eskandar, Aaliyah, Alyona, and I were the only ones eating, and I assumed everyone else already had their dinner.
Isabella and Naomi were having a deep discussion, and the look on Isabella’s face had me tuning in my dragon hearing.
/> “So, you didn’t even want a man when you met Lord Evan?” the Nepin asked with wide eyes.
“Nope.” Naomi shook her head. “I’ve always preferred women, but he convinced me to… well… He didn’t push me into it at all, just so you know. He just made me want him and everything that comes with being part of this family. Now, I am quite happy and very satisfied.”
“Family?” Isabella echoed. “I thought you were in his harem.”
“We are,” the lizard mage giggled. “It isn’t like Lord Calvin’s harem, though. Lord Evan actually cares about us and loves us. He only wants us to be happy, and we share a special bond.”
“He loves each of you?” The Nepin’s brow was furrowed as she contemplated this information. “Like, he really loves you? You’re sure?”
“Of course,” Miraya chimed in as she leaned over to the other two women. “It’s like nothing we’ve ever experienced before.”
“And he loves his wife,” Isabella murmured. “And she’s okay with this?”
“Oh, gods, yes,” Naomi laughed and then lowered her voice again. “She loves us, we love her, and sometimes, we join each other with Lord Evan.”
“Wow,” Isabella gasped. “I had no idea it could be like that. When I arrived in Leyte, Lord Calvin was only interested in me as an object, you know? He just wanted to add me to his numbers. I was surprised he even remembered my name.”
“He didn’t remember that you always got away before your turn,” Miraya pointed out with a giggle.
“I really didn’t have any interest in that man,” Isabella sighed and covered her smile. “Lord Evan is much more attractive.”
“And he has much better hearing,” Miraya whispered with a wink.
“Oh!” Isabella shot me an embarrassed glance before she looked down at her lap, and I grinned at Naomi and Miraya as I nodded my head.
It turned out my lovers were making for some pretty good wingmen.
“Would you like to ask him more about the family?” Naomi offered.
“Or are you more of a hands-on learner?” Miraya asked in a husky voice.
There was a brief moment when I wasn’t sure how the Nepin would react, but then a smile crept across her beautiful features as she turned to face me.
“Definitely hands-on,” she whispered.
That was all I needed.
“I’ll come to our chambers later,” I murmured to Alyona as I pressed a kiss to her cheek.
“Sounds good,” she mumbled around a mouthful of food.
I chuckled as I strode past Naomi and Miraya’s chairs, and they grabbed Isabella by the hands to pull her after me. I started to lead them upstairs before I realized I wasn’t sure where to go.
“Over here,” Miraya giggled and pushed open a door to my right.
I followed the women inside, shut the door, and turned around to face the trio. I drank them in, and I smiled when Isabella wrapped her arms tightly around her body.
“Don’t worry,” I assured her. “We can go slow.”
“Come on,” Naomi said. “Let’s get on the bed.”
I watched them walk the Nepin toward the bed, and I felt my blood rush south as I stared at the three gorgeous asses sashaying away from me. The women laid down across the black satin sheets, and I stared at them with a deep hunger, but I had to calm down and take things slow.
Not only was Isabella new to our lives, but she was also a virgin, so I had to be careful with her.
I walked over to Miraya and pulled her to her feet. Then I kissed her long and slow, and I could feel waves of heat pour from the other two women’s bodies as they watched us.
I dropped my hands down to her waist and gently untied the belt of her robe, and Naomi scooted closer, pulled the nearly transparent fabric from Miraya’s shoulders, and let it fall to the floor. Then she tugged Isabella closer and guided one of the Nepin’s hands up Miraya’s bare hip.
“Oh!” Isabella gasped as her fingers grazed the spirit’s naked skin.
“Keep going.” I wrapped my hand around Isabella’s and slid it up to the soft flesh of Miraya’s breast, and I used her thumb to rub against the spirit’s soft nipple. “She likes it, and I know you will, too.”
“Mmmm,” Miraya moaned against my lips. “Don’t stop, Isabella.”
Naomi nudged Isabella directly behind Miraya, and I pulled Isabella’s other hand up to Miraya’s other round tit. Soon, the Nepin was massaging Miraya’s breasts, and I glanced at Naomi and gave her a wink.
The lizard Demi-Human leaned over and kissed Isabella’s neck while her hands wrapped around the Nepin’s waist to begin to untie her toga. The straps fell free, and the white sheet fluttered before Isabella looked up at me with uncertainty.
I pulled away from Miraya and tugged Isabella to her feet with the spirit between us. Then I lifted the last part of her dress over her head to reveal her beautiful sapphire body.
The multi-colored tattoos were all over her, and the twists and lines of the markings dipped down between her perfectly round breasts and around the curves of her hips.
“Wow,” Naomi breathed. “You have…”
Before I could ask what she was talking about, the lizard mage spun Isabella around, and I sucked in a deep breath.
Silver and opalescent wings sprouted from Isabella’s bare back and glittered in the flickering light of the lanterns. They were folded against her skin, which was probably how she’d kept them hidden under her dress.
“Show me,” I breathed.
After a moment of hesitation, Isabella spread her wings, and both of the other women gasped.
“Beautiful,” Miraya sighed.
“Stunning,” Naomi agreed with a smile.
Isabella turned back around and chewed on her bottom lip.
“Now, fly on over here and let me make things interesting for you,” I murmured.
“Okay,” she giggled as she closed the gap between us and wrapped her arms around my neck. “You really like them?”
“Absolutely,” I growled before I dipped my head down to kiss her indigo lips.
She tasted like grapes and honey, and I coaxed her lips open with my tongue to let me inside. Her body shivered against me, so I pressed her closer to me as I reached over to tug Naomi’s black robe to the floor.
I glanced over to see the lizard mage’s pink scales that wrapped around her slender body, and I followed their trail down to her already dripping pussy. She was enjoying the show so far, but I already knew she liked to watch.
“Miraya, why don’t you warm Naomi up for me?” I suggested with a playful wink.
“Of course,” she giggled as she wrapped her arms around the lady lizard.
Their lips crashed together, and I guided Isabella to the bed next to them where she nearly tumbled onto the sheets and started to blush. I sat down and stood her up in front of me to take a better look at her sweet body while I undressed.
As my cock sprang free from my trousers, the Nepin’s eyes widened before her tongue grazed her lips with anticipation.
“Me first,” I murmured as I grabbed her hips to pull her to me.
I had the perfect eye-level view of her breasts, and I could see her desire glisten on the thatch of silvery hair at the apex of her thighs. She straddled my legs, and I grabbed her ass as I pressed her tits to my mouth and dragged my tongue across the ocean-colored surface.
“Ohhhh,” Isabella groaned as I flicked my tongue across her hard nipple.
She gripped the back of my head and raked her fingers through my hair while I sucked and licked each of her breasts.
“You should taste her, my lord,” Miraya said in a breathless whisper.
“Oh?” I turned to see she and Naomi had paused their own making out to watch me with Isabella, and I grinned as I scooted back on the bed and motioned for Isabella to follow me.
Naomi guided her up to my face, and the Nepin straddled my head with careful movements until her slick pussy hovered just above my mouth. I leaned up just enough to gra
ze her warm lips with my tongue, and she dug her nails into the bed.
“Lord Evannnnn,” Isabella mewled. “O-Oh!”
Miraya slipped down to the space between my thighs, and I groaned as she took my cock in her mouth just as I delved into Isabella’s sweet pussy.
“Come here.” Naomi clambered up above my head and knelt in front of Isabella, and she grabbed the Nepin’s face to pull her into a long, wet kiss.
I continued to lick and suckle Isabella’s slit while Miraya shoved my dick to the back of her throat. I gripped the Nepin’s hips as she began to roll back and forth across my face, and then I slid a finger inside her.
“Oh!” Isabella gasped and shuddered against me, and it didn’t take long for her body to begin to shake. “Gods!”
Then a tidal wave of her sweet nectar dumped into my mouth, and I held her tight to my face as I continued to tongue-fuck her sweet pussy while she trembled above me.
“Yesssss,” Miraya moaned against my cock, and her words sent vibrations down my shaft and up my spine.
“Fuuuuck,” I groaned as I took one last lick of Isabella’s slit before my own climax crashed through my body.
Electric shocks reverberated through my bones as I shot a load of my seed into the spirit’s mouth and down her throat. She sucked out every drop, and my legs went limp against the bed for a moment.
“Oh, I thought you would give our wombs your seed,” Isabella said with a twinge of sadness.
“You think I’m done?” I chuckled. “I’ve only just started.”
Isabella crawled off my face as Miraya stood up, and I flipped over to climb on top of the Nepin. I hovered over her with my rock-hard cock poised to enter her, while Miraya scooted onto the bed near Naomi. Then I sent a wave of healing magic into Isabella’s body as I slowly slid my cock inside her tight canal.
“Gooooods,” Isabella moaned and gripped the black satin below her. “Oh, gods! Ohhhh, Lord Evan!”
“Does it feel okay?” I asked, and I froze when I bottomed out inside her fluttering pussy.
“It feels… amazing,” she gasped. “Y-You’re filling up every inch of me. You are spreading me open. It feels… soooo… wonderful.”
