“Don’t take the cloak off until you get to the woods, and no one will see, except Zugo.” He pressed as kiss to my lips and then walked to the door opening it.
Emot walked in front of me and tugged the cloak closed over the sheer clothing and whispered, “Rock his world love.” He also kissed me and then walked towards the bedroom.
Kai pressed his lips to my neck and nipped my ear, sending tingles straight to my aching core. “Enjoy your night with Zugo.” We walked out of the closet and Kai walked me towards Zugo’s door, knocking on the panel, it swung open and Zugo smiled.
“Good morning.” He looked at the cloak I was wearing and arched a brow.
“Trust us, leave it on till you reach the woods,” Kai said to Zugo, as he handed me over to him.
“Okay… Are you ready to go?” he asked, as he took my hand and closed his door. I shot a glare at the others as Emot handed over to Zugo the two vials we would need.
“Have fun, you two,” Sic called, as we walked towards the doors.
“Enjoy your night,” Emot said, as we stepped over the threshold.
“Don’t forget to suck his baby batter blaster,” Kai yelled, as I slammed the doors closed. Zugo’s blush reached all the way to his hairline and I suspected mine was just as bad.
“Ignore them, they have lost their minds,” I said, as we began making our way down the stairs and out the doors.
When we reached the open yard, Zugo whispered, “What is a baby batter blaster?” while trying not laugh.
“It’s another ridiculous name for your cock,” I answered back quietly, and he chuckled.
“That’s kinda what I figured but didn’t want to assume,” he said as we began our walk towards the Sprites.
Once we reached the woods, Zugo and I paused while I undid the clasp on the cloak and opened it to reveal the outfit the guys had dressed me in. “Holy shit,” Zugo whispered, as he took in every detail.
“The guys dressed me,” I said, as I draped the cloak over my arm and began walking once more.
“I owe them big time,” He trailed off, and when I turned to look back, his gaze was on my ass.
“Are we going, or do you want to stand here looking at me all day?” I asked, and he shook himself out of his stupor before catching up.
“You really do look amazing,” he said, making me blush.
“I am practically naked,” I said, and he laughed.
“Yes, and no. See, the fabric hints at the perfection of your body without you being totally naked, so it is actually more enticing that way,” he explained, as we made our way towards the Sprites, once again. “Besides, it is actually fitting for where we are going.”
We reached the grove and I placed the cloak off to the side, under the largest tree. Stone Copperwhisk fluttered down with several guards and smiled. “Your Majesty, it is wonderful to see you once more. We have been told that you will be staying the night with us, courtesy of the potion Aromatic Nightfall. We welcome you joyously and have prepared a wonderful feast for tonight, as well as a grand tour of our Kingdom.” He hovered just before us and bowed as he spoke, “Once you are ready, take the liquid and we shall carry you up to Honeyhall.”
Zugo handed me a vial and uncapped his own. I clinked mine softly to his and we drank them down. Within moments, the trees around us appeared to be growing and I had a surreal Alice in Wonderland moment, wondering if I would have to eat a cake to grow back to normal size. We ended up in the grass, side by side, and the large blades of green blocked our view of anything.
“Welcome, Your Majesty,” Stone spoke, and then asked, “May the guards fly you up to the city? We do need your permission to touch the royal personage.” I nodded at his question and then I was being picked up by two guards who cautiously carried me up to a massive branch with a path running through its center towards the trunk of the tree. Zugo landed beside me and we followed Stone down the path.
“This is Honeyhall. The main city is deep within the tree and the Royal Palace sits at the top.” We passed through a large doorway and into the cool shade within the tree. Light poured in from the windows all over the place, and the city spiraled down the hollowed trunk.
Stone began to walk up the stairs that circled the trunk and I looked around in awe as we worked our way up. The guards remained close by, and eventually picked us up once more, and flew us to the entrance to the palace. Stone opened the doors and bowed to us, following us as we entered. “Welcome back, Maisie. Zugo,” Dandelia called out, as she fluttered over. “Mother will be here shortly. She heard you have arrived and wanted to welcome you, as well.”
“Zugo, my boy, Maisie,” Freesia’s voice sounded behind us, making us turn. We were swept up into a huge hug and then she stepped back and smiled. “It is so wonderful to have you here, even if it is only for one night,” she pinched Zugo’s cheek as she spoke, and then another woman walked through the doorway, one without wings.
“Mother?” Zugo whispered, and she ran to him, hugging him tightly. “How is this possible? I saw you at the funeral.” She had tears streaming down her face as she looked over Zugo.
“Zugo, my son, I have missed you so much. When you were here last, I watched from my home, but couldn’t let you know yet. We have so much to catch up on and this beautiful woman must be your bride.” She pulled me in for a huge hug. “Thank you for saving my son.”
“Wait, you knew he was captured?” I asked, and she pulled back slightly.
“It is a very long story and I will gladly explain everything,” she spoke, as Freesia and Dandelia smiled.
“Why don’t we go to my private rooms for this conversation, Yuane?” Zugo’s mother nodded, and we all walked up the stairs and into a private sitting room, much like the one back in the castle. Dandelia offered us glasses of wine as we sat, waiting for Zugo’s mother to begin.
“Your uncle Zanire killed your father, and tried to kill me, in an attempt to get the Dukedom. You were six at the time, so he figured you wouldn’t fight him taking over. The Sprites helped me fake my death, and then brought me to their Kingdom. So, I remained hidden here. When your uncle was killed, I rejoiced that I could return to you, but then Vago took you. When Vago captured you, I begged the Sprites to bring you here, but it was too dangerous. I have been waiting for the day you were freed, and I could see you again,” as Yuane spoke, tears wet her cheeks and I listened to her story with sympathy.
“You are welcome to come back to the castle with us,” I offered, and she smiled.
“I will one day but, I cannot leave until Vago is defeated. If he knows I am alive, he will surely kill me and know who helped me escape. I cannot put the Sprites at risk like that,” she explained, as she held Freesia’s hand in a tight grip.
We spent the next few hours talking with Zugo’s mother until the start of the feast. As the feast was set, the Sprites came en masse, and the sedate feast swiftly turned into a party. We danced and ate, drank our fill, and enjoyed the celebratory atmosphere. Sprites flew around us as the night wore on, and Zugo’s mother said goodnight before leaving. Zugo yawned as Stone showed us to a room, late in the evening, and then we were alone.
The need had ebbed, for a time, but now that we were alone, all I could think about was us being alone. “I really should thank the guys for this outfit, you look breathtaking.” He pulled me closer and pressed his lips to mine. “I honestly don’t know what I’m doing, so, I hope you can help walk me through it,” he whispered, as he pressed his forehead to mine.
“You aren’t wholly inexperienced, but I think we can take our time and fumble through it.” I giggled as the wine teased my senses and then slid my hands to his shirt. I worked each button slowly, until I could pull it off his arms. I marveled at the muscle he had put on, in just a short time. He was still slender but there was now definition, where none had been before.
I left his pants alone for the moment, just running my hands over his chest and arms. “I love you, Zugo,” I said, and he pulled me tight to hi
s chest kissing me hard.
“I love you too,” he whispered, as he pulled back and we walked towards the bed. His hands loosened my dress and it slid free to pool around my feet, revealing the corset to his gaze. “Is it bad that I want you to keep it on?” he asked, and I smiled.
“No.” I crawled onto the bed and tugged him behind me. “But I do think these will have to go.” I flicked the button on his pants, and he tugged them off before lying beside me.
His hand caressed my face tenderly before his hand tentatively slid down to my exposed breast. He stroked his thumb over my hard nipple before dipping his head to suck it between his lips. I arched into his mouth as he teased me, trying not to moan too loudly.
He pulled back and rolled me onto my back, slipping his hand down more to dip between my legs. He slowly explored my folds with his fingers, and I could feel my own wetness aiding his movement. He kissed me deeply as he slid a finger into me and then a second, thrusting slowly. I ran my fingers through his hair, pulling softly as he played. “Roll over,” I commanded softly, as I broke the kiss.
He instantly rolled, exposing his body to my view. I sat up, as he removed his fingers, and crawled towards the head of the bed. “You’re going to eat my pussy while I suck your cocks.” I straddled his head and bent forward until my mouth was hovering of the heads of his cocks. His mouth touched me as I flicked my tongue along both heads at once, before taking one fully into my mouth. I alternated between the two as he licked me and flicked his tongue on my clit.
He growled softly as I sucked harder and then I felt his fingers join his efforts. He fingered me while sucking on my clit and my body rocketed towards the orgasm it had been denied all day. “Stop,” I said just before I broke, and he stopped pulling his hand free.
I crawled off his face and then turned, so that we were face to face once more, pressing my lips to his. I straddled his hips and used my hand to rub the head of his cocks along my folds, until they were both nice and wet. I pressed one towards his abs and then slowly sank down on the other. He moaned as my body captured his, and then I rolled my hips. “Oh, fuck, that feels so good,” he said, as I slowly rose and fell.
“Do you want both in there?” I asked, and he nodded his head. So, I lifted up and lined his other cock up beside the first and slid down both.
He bucked his hips as the sensation overwhelmed him, but didn’t cum. I slowly began to ride him, lifting and falling in a steady rhythm. His hands slid to my ass and he held on as I moved. Without warning, he sat up and captured my nipple in his mouth and I tossed my head back to enjoy the sensation. My body was desperately seeking release and I felt the tension build swiftly. Rolling my hips on a downward thrust, I came apart and cried out as I spasmed around him.
He moaned as my body clamped around his, enjoying the feeling as I pulsed around him. I needed more, so I slowly rose and turned so I was sitting sideways in his lap. As I rose this time, I pulled one cock free and slid it back towards my ass and pressed back down. I rocked until he was deep in my ass and slit, then began to ride again. “Maisie, I think I’m gonna cum,” Zugo’s words were hushed, and I knew he didn’t want this to end yet.
I stopped moving and just sat with him buried in my body, waiting until he was ready. After a few moments, he began rolling his hips and I rode his movements letting him lead. I leaned back towards the bed and he followed me, as I laid on my side. Lifting my leg, I draped it over his shoulder as he leaned over me and slowly began thrusting. He started slowly, with long strokes, until he got the hang of it and began to speed up.
The pleasure that I felt was instant, as he worked me faster and my body began to tighten once again. His own body twitched as he neared his own peak, and then he began to thrust harder. The pressure that had been building snapped and I screamed out, as I spasmed around him. His pace became frantic and then he yelled as he slammed deep and held still, his cocks pulsing deep. In the recesses of the palace, I heard loud cheering in response to our noise.
He rolled off me as much as he could, my body releasing him swiftly. He slipped out and pulled me close to his chest. “That was amazing.” I giggled as he tried to catch his breath.
“I’m glad you liked it,” I teased for a moment.
He sat up and kissed my cheek. “I’ll be right back.” Standing, he walked towards a door and opened what looked like a bathroom. I heard the water for a moment before he came back carrying a box. “The guys brought this a few days ago and the Sprites shrunk it down for them. It will all go back to normal when we do, since inanimate objects aren’t on a timed spell.” He placed the wooden box on the bed and opened the lid.
I couldn’t see inside the box, but he pulled several items out. I noticed the strap on and lube, but that wasn’t what caught my attention. He pulled more toys out and blushed. “I guess they wanted us to have a wild night.”
“We still can if you want, but we don’t have to.” He pulled all the sex toys out and I shook my head wondering if Kai packed the box. I heard a soft click and then hinges opening.
“They said I needed to give these to you if we…” he trailed off, and I smiled at his shyness. He held out a small velvet box and then pulled a very large one out of the bottom.
Handing me the small box first, I opened it and gasped. Sitting on the cushions was a glorious ring with four small gems surrounding a huge diamond, or what looked like a diamond. “The center stone is Titemanite, only found in the deepest parts of the Calsend Sea, near the Shaoling Abyss. The other four stones are all from the four Kingdoms. Lepbyite, the lavender one is from the Eastern Kingdom. Reaillite, the red one is from the Southern Kingdom. Heululite, the blue one is from the Western Kingdom, and the pink one is from the Northern Kingdom, called Salozonite. They said it was your wedding ring,” he sat next to me on the bed, as he pointed to each gem and explained.
Picking up the ring from the box, he grasped my left hand and slid the rosy band onto my ring finger. “Since we are all officially married.”
Once the ring was in place, I held my hand out and marveled at the perfect fit. It wasn’t too big or too small, but perfect in every way for me. “It’s beautiful.”
“They had it made specifically for you.” He pulled the larger velvet box out and placed it in my lap. “I also know what this is, and I am hoping you will wear it if we decide to play around some more.” He blushed and my curiosity got the better of me.
Opening the lid, I pulled a protective cloth off the top and almost fainted. A large crown sat nestled on the black velvet covered with the same gems as my ring. “The guys said that an Empress needs a crown, and that you have to wear it when you return back to the castle,” I looked shocked as he spoke. Holding his hands up he quickly added, “Their words not mine.”
“It’s breathtaking but why do I need to wear it? Why can’t I keep going on the way things have been?” I asked, as I pulled the crown off its velvet cushion.
“Well, tonight just because I wanna say I was the first to sleep with an Empress. They said you needed to start taking on your role as this country’s leader, and the first step was by wearing the crown.” He gently took the crown from my hands and placed it on my head. “It suits you.” I wanted to take it off, but Zugo’s eyes held something special that I didn’t want to lose.
“Would Your Imperial Majesty please fuck my ass?” he whispered softly.
“Is that all you want?” I teased, and he kissed his lips to mine.
“Gods, no, I want to keep you awake all night and all day tomorrow just locked in this room. But first, please fuck my ass,” he begged so sweetly that I couldn’t say no, as I grabbed the strap on.
“If it’s a night of fun then let’s get the fun started. On your knees,” I commanded, and then began to slowly ready him for the night to come.
Scáthach returned while Maisie and Zugo were with the Sprites. Her men drifted in behind her, as they had the first time they arrived, only this time they were in the great hall. “We have returned with the
information you seek. Payment has been made,” she spoke, as Sic and Emot came down the stairs.
The woman seriously creeped me out, and her men gave me this bad vibe, but we needed their help. “Have you been able to ascertain the size of the army?” Sic asked, as he rounded the corner.
“Yes, Your Majesty. From Kreetik’s flight, he was able to see two clear divisions, Athargos was able to pinpoint the leaders of each battalion, as well. We estimate that he has about thirty thousand men, women, and children,” Scáthach spoke, and I gaped. Who the hell puts children in an army and then sends them to war?
Aindreas, the mage, walked forward. “If you are capable of producing a number of more than sixty thousand then the majority of Vago’s army will revolt. They have no love for their tyrannical leader. The second division is almost completely mothers and children. They will run and I would command your men to stay their weapons if they come across these troops.” He paused and look directly at me. “Your army is now backed by the Western forces, and they hold the border well. You should move both Armies into the Eastern Kingdom and begin by pushing the Northern Army back.” He stepped back into his formation behind Scáthach and then she turned away.
Walking towards the door Sic called out. “What if we need more information from you?”
Scáthach paused without turning back. “Speak my name and we shall come, but your Empress will not need our services once this war begins.” She looked back for one moment at the three of us. “Watch over her well, for there are still those who would seek to harm her, and assassins are always for hire,” her last words sent a shiver of fear down my spine, and then she and her men dissolved into nothingness.
“Fuck,” Emot said after a moment. “That woman ssseriously givesss me the creepsss.”
“Yes, but her help has been invaluable. Sixty thousand, how in the hell does he have sixty thousand? There aren’t that many people on all of Lasina, unless he has hired mercenaries from other continents,” Sic spoke, as he began to pace.
