She’d asked before she touched his cock, which might seem the normal thing to do before you touched someone’s cock, but he was naked, she was naked, her face was inches away from his cock. The natural thing to do was touch it, or take it in her mouth.
Natasha had touched it, and from there, instead of taking it in her mouth, she got to her feet, then asked if she could have sex with him.
And then it hit him.
Natasha couldn’t remember what life was like before she came to hell. All her memories had been wiped, including her sexual experiences. Natasha couldn’t remember her first kiss, or the first time taking a guy or girls clothes off, the first time they got into bed and explored each other’s bodies.
Her memories of sex began in hell, when the demons passed her around like a piece of meat. It was amazing that she wasn’t completely traumatised.
“You don’t want to have sex with us?” Natasha asked, hurt in her voice as Alex hadn’t responded.
“Both of them?” Lucifer asked. “That’s more like it!”
Alex glanced at Katrina. She had her eyes on his cock, her thick lips parted slightly. The girls had different bodies. Natasha had slim legs, perky breasts and a slim frame. Katrina was curvier. She had bigger breasts, bigger lips, thicker thighs. Both girls were physically fit though, with little to no fat on their bodies, thanks to the harsh life in hell.
Alex stepped up to Natasha. He placed a hand around the back of her head and gripped her hair gently as he kissed her on the lips. It was a deep kiss, and Alex felt her stiff body loosen as she relaxed. He pulled back, and when he did, she smiled up at him.
It broke the awkwardness, and Natasha dropped to her knees. She took his cock in her hands and rubbed it gently, bringing it to full growth, she took it in her mouth. The wet warmth felt good, and Alex wanted to shove his cock down her throat. But it was big, and he knew she was used to a rough life of sex. He was going to let her do things at her own pace.
He rubbed her hair fondly as she continued to suck away. It was only a minute later did he remember Katrina was also there. She stared at him with longing eyes. He called her over with the wave of a hand. She came and stood beside him awkwardly, her legs crossed.
Seeing her standing there naked and all shy, but the desire in her eyes, and looking every bit like the porn star, Alex felt his animalistic desires rise. He wanted to take Katrina and take her hard. He wanted to spread her thick thighs and fuck her cunt, make her squeal. But again, he resisted those urges. As much as Katrina would want him to take her judging by the longing look in her eyes, it didn’t seem healthy for the girls to know sex to be only rough, hard and painful.
Alex pulled Katrina close. His lips met hers as his hands gently felt her body. He caressed her breasts, then his hands moved down and parted her legs. Her pussy was hot and dripping. He slid two fingers in. With his thumb, he parted the pussy lips and found the clitoris. He rubbed against it gently as they kissed.
Natasha continued to suck on his cock whilst her hands played with his balls. Apparently a quick learner, she was gentle with them. Katrina began to moan. She was close to an orgasm, and Alex was close to blowing his load into Natasha’s mouth. Katrina’s moans increased, their lips pressed together harder and her body tensed. They came together. Alex shot his load into Natasha’s mouth. Katrina’s body quivered and she collapsed onto him. Alex wrapped his arms around her. Natasha continued to suck his cock. She drained him completely before looking up.
“Was that good?” she asked.
“It was great,” he told her.
Natasha’s face beamed with joy as she climbed to her feet. But her smile quickly turned into a frown. “It’s supposed to be my turn now. But you both look exhausted.”
She was right. Normally, Alex could go for another round after a short five-minute break. But this hellish atmosphere and lack of proper food and water had him feeling more tired than normal. His body longed for a comfortable bed to sleep in.
Katrina, who had been resting her body against his, raised her head. “I’ll never say no to your pussy,” she said lazily.
So it was settled.
Alex lay on the chowki with Natasha beside him. His hands gently caressed her breasts. Her legs were parted. Katrina had her ass up in the air as her face was buried in Natasha’s cunt. It was a beautiful sight. Not exactly what Alex thought he would come across when he dropped down into hell.
Natasha closed her eyes. Her legs tightened around Katrina’s head. Her moans increased until she came. Katrina continued to use her tongue for a few more moments, and then she came to lie beside Alex.
Natasha rested her head on his chest. “I’ll take you where you need to go,” she said. “I’ll take you to Katarnak.”
Chapter 16
They next morning, as Natasha was preparing to set off on their journey, Alex told her about his intention to kill the Kragnak, the beast that had taken residence in the village’s local water pool. It was something he’d thought about last night. He planned to come back for the humans once the rebellion was over, but there was a chance he might not be alive to do that. He had to help them somehow before he left. Killing the beast and freeing their water supply would make their lives much easier.
Alex expected her to be pleased. What he didn’t expect was for her to throw herself at him, which she did. Natasha wrapped her arms around him tightly. She buried her face in his bare chest as tears formed in her eyes.
They set off after a quick breakfast of more stew. Natasha kissed Katrina goodbye, then told her to go the next day and check to see if their water pool had been cleared from the beast. When Katrina asked how she would know if the Kragnak was dead, Alex assured her she would know.
As they walked out of the village, Katrina rushed up to him and kissed him hard on the lips. She then whispered something in his ears that shocked even him. Katrina gave him another kiss, then told him to think about it. Alex wondered if he would do anything else but think about it.
Using the same route Charlie had taken to come to the village, they were soon back on the path between the mountains. They walked down it for twenty minutes before Natasha stepped off. There was another gap between the hills. It was narrow. Natasha travelled lightly. All she carried was a leather waterskin tied to her waist.
Natasha stepped into the gap and walked with ease. Alex had to be a bit more careful. His body frame was much bigger. The space was tight and the rocky walls on either side were jagged. Alex bumped his shoulder onto a protruding pointy edge more than once.
He was beginning to get annoyed, but luckily, they didn’t have far to go. The gap between the hills came to an end. Before him, there was an opening about a hundred feet wide. Alex spotted the pool of water immediately. It covered half the space. Surrounding it were green trees and bushes. It looked like a mini oasis in an otherwise harsh environment.
The water was still. No ripples at all, not even the smallest. Surrounded on all sides by rising hills, there was no wind. Nothing rustled amongst the trees or bushes.
“Where is it?” Alex asked. “What does it look like?”
Natasha described the beast to him. They called it a Kragnak. It had eight long tentacles and a bulbous head. It was black. Its mouth was enormous. Whenever a human approached the water, it would suddenly leap out and grab the human, wrap its tentacles around it, then drag the human back into the water.
“Sounds like an octopus,” Alex said.
Natasha stared at him blankly.
“You don’t know what an octopus is?” Alex asked, and when she shook her head, he added, “We’ve got them back on earth.”
“Terrifying beasts, aren’t they?” Natasha asked.
Alex shrugged. He’d only seen pictures of octopuses. Of the sea creatures, it was the shark that humans were most afraid off. Alex told Natasha to stay back, then drawing his sword, he approached the pool of water. He was six feet away from the water when the creature leapt at him.
Its skin was scaly an
d white, not black. It had three heads. Two of those heads had a single large eye in the middle. The head in the centre had no eyes, but it did have a mouth and nose, as did both other heads. The rest of its body was like an octopus. Except, it had more than eight tentacles.
Alex realised Natasha was truly horrible at describing things.
He also realised the Kragnak, having leapt out of the water, was less than a foot away from him. All three mouths were wide open. It had shark-like teeth. They were sharp, but they were black. He became aware of the tentacles enclosing around him. Any second now, and the Kragnak would wrap around him and engulf him in darkness.
Alex swung his sword up. In a single strike, he split the creature in half. It fell either side of him as black ink squirted out onto his bare chest. The two heads still intact let out an ear-splitting scream that echoed around the hills. The tentacles wriggled on the bank of the water pool before they became still and the cry died out.
“You killed it…” Natasha said. She stared at him in awe. “You did it so easily too…”
Alex grinned. “Not my first monster,” he told her.
Natasha nodded knowingly. “No wonder Satani sent you to quell the rebellion.”
* * *
Before they left the pool, Natasha filled the waterskin with water. She then tore the bottom part of her tunic so that it looked more like a shirt dress. She asked to borrow his sword. Alex gave it to her. Then he watched as she dropped to her knees and leaned over half the dead Kragnak. As she did, her now partially cut tunic came up to her waist, revealing Natasha’s ass and the line of her pussy.
Natasha cut off one of the Kragnak’s tentacles and wrapped it in the piece of cloth she’d torn off. Food, she said, when Alex raised an eyebrow.
Alex didn’t argue her. Hell was a harsh land. Meat was food, even if it came from a demonic version of an octopus. He’d already eaten meat from a Raver and it had tasted good.
Before they left, Alex broke off a small branch from one of the trees surrounding the pool of water. With his sword, he dug a hole in the rock and placed one end of the branch in the hole. The other end, he sharpened to a point, then grabbed one half of the Kragnak and pressed the head against it.
“So Katrina will know the beast is dead,” Alex told Natasha.
Leaving the pool of water behind them, they walked through the narrow gap between the hills and back onto the main path. Alex knew he was in for a long trek. The demon city of Katarnak was beyond the mountains, Natasha had said. A demon city… that would be something to see, Alex thought.
The path was not a hard one, but it was a long one. The dirt track wound around the bottom of the mountains. Sometimes it narrowed as it seemed to cut a path in-between two mountains. Alex appreciated those moments. The rocky walls provided shade from the red sky. It was a strange heat. His skin didn’t burn from the heat, but his body felt drained, more than it should have.
The red sky darkened in shade and Natasha suggested they find shelter and rest. Alex was exhausted. He was thirsty too. A break didn’t seem like a bad idea.
At the foot of the next hill, a large rock extended straight out for a meter. Natasha decided it was good enough for temporary shelter. Alex thought it small, and couldn’t understand why they had to hide underneath it. Natasha dropped onto her bottom, her back pressed against the rock, her knees up. Her tunic was officially a shirt and with her knees raised, her pussy was showing clearly.
The girl smiled at him and tapped on the ground beside her. Alex joined her. Being taller, his head touched the extended rock above. He had to slouch. It was uncomfortable.
“Why are we sitting here?” Alex grumbled.
“It’s going to rain soon,” Natasha said.
“I could do with some rain,” Alex said, his spirit rising.
He was about to step out into the open, but Natasha held him back. And just in time too. There was a clap of thunder. What followed seemed about right for hell. Burning rocks began to drop from above.
Natasha took her arm in his and rested her head on his shoulder as the burning rocks struck the ground all around them. One rock bounced off the ground and came flying at Natasha. Like a pro, Alex batted it away with his sword before it could hit her face. Natasha lifted her head from his shoulder to smile up at him. Their lips met in a brief kiss.
The rocks continued to fall for hours, but strangely, they did not pile up on top of each other. Instead, they disappeared into the ground as if they were made of a watery substance. Natasha fell asleep on Alex’s shoulder. He could hear her gentle breathing, could feel her body warm body relax, and sure enough, when he looked down, her eyes were closed.
Asleep, Natasha looked even prettier. It seemed like all her worries and her stresses had washed away. Living in hell, Alex could only imagine how stressful it must be. It was made worse by the fact that Natasha didn’t even know who she was.
This life in hell was the only life she could remember. It was a life that began with torture and abuse. Even after escaping from her demon owner, life still was not easy. Hell was not a kind mistress.
Stopping the Azarath rebellion was still his priority, but Alex silently vowed to find a way back to earth for these humans that were abducted. Thinking of earth, his thoughts turned to the friends he’d left behind.
He wondered what Karen was doing right this moment. And Melissa, his cute little demon friend. She was a timely reminder that not all demons were bad. He hadn’t even had a chance to check up on Emily. The girl had been hurt badly during the ritual to free Satan. There was Jessica too, his hot flat mate. She didn’t seem to be in a good place after he killed her abusive boyfriend.
Despite everything, Alex couldn’t help but smile wryly. His life had changed so much in the past year. He went from not having a girlfriend to having… Alex paused to wonder what he really did have. Was there a term for his relationships with multiple women?
“Sex, asshole,” Lucifer muttered. “You’re having lots of sex with different women. Don’t make any more out of it. Otherwise you’ll ruin the only perfect thing you have going right now. Trust me on this.”
It was a rare occasion when Alex agreed with Lucifer. But this was one of those times. He was young and had a lot to experience. He hadn’t misled any of the girls. He could afford to live in the moment.
The burning rocks eventually stopped falling from the sky. Natasha woke up a few moments later. She smiled at him lazily before climbing to her feet. They set off once more down the winding path between the mountains.
Despite wearing trainers, Alex could feel the heat radiating from the ground, courtesy of being struck by burning rocks. He glanced down at Natasha’s feet. She was wearing sandals that looked like she’d made them herself. The sole of the shoes was made of a leathery material. It was thin and black. He assumed it was the skin of an animal killed in hell. She should have been feeling the heat a lot more than he did. Maybe she was just used to it.
The heat made him feel sluggish, and the air had an ashy taste to it. Alex borrowed the waterskin from Natasha and took a sip. He wanted to gulp it all down, but knew how precious water was in these parts. And by these parts, he meant hell.
As the sky above began to turn into a darker shade of red, Natasha quickened her pace. They needed to find shelter before nightfall, she said. It wasn’t safe to be out and about in the dark in hell. As if to prove her point, they heard a howl in the distance.
Alex looked up at the sky. There was no sign of a sun up there. It was hard to tell how day and night worked in hell, but the sky was getting a darker shade of red, and as a result, it was getting darker on the ground too.
The howls were becoming more frequent and louder. The animals were getting closer. Natasha broke into a run. But they didn’t get very far before a creature dashed across the path in front of them. It looked like a monkey with ink deep black fur. It did have two heads and three tails, but still, it looked fairly harmless.
“We need to hurry. That’s an
Acromite. They hang around in packs,” Natasha said. “They have incredibly sharp teeth.”
A pack of two-headed monkeys with incredibly sharp teeth, Alex could see how that would be a problem. Natasha knew the route well. It was one she used often when she went into the towns and cities to either steal goods, or free other human slaves.
The howling sounds of the Acromites were growing in number and intensity. Alex was certain the creatures were running parallel to them along the mountains. They both broke into a run. The sky above was a dark maroon colour when Natasha pointed at the cave.
It was midway up the hill in front of them.
The only problem was, there were two Acromites standing in their path. The creatures seemed very much like monkeys. They sat on their bottoms, backs straight, hands by their sides as they stared at Alex and Natasha. There was an intelligence in the soft brown eyes.
“I don’t want to hurt you, but you need to get out of the way,” Alex said, as he drew out his sword.
“You’re talking to them?” Natasha asked, an eyebrow raised. “You know they want to eat us, right?”
She was right. The mutated monkeys charged at him. Those brown eyes no longer looked soft. The beasts moved with incredible speed. Their mouths open, they showed the sharp teeth Natasha had mentioned. Both beasts came for him. It was the smart thing to do, to team up against the one holding the sword.
But it was also the stupid thing to do. With two simple strikes, Alex decapitated both beasts. Their bodies hit the ground with thuds. The heads rolled down the path and came to rest at the foot of the hill.
Alex was about to make for the cave when he noticed Natasha. The girl emptied the fleshy bits of Kragnak that she had stored in the cloth she’d torn from her tunic. She then held her hand out to him.
Alex raised an eyebrow. It took him a second more to understand. He glanced at the dead bodies of the Acromites.
“Seriously?” he asked.
“They taste so much better,” Natasha said.
