Apprentice: The Induction

"Close your eyes. Feel the air around you. Feel the latent magical energy in the room. Let it flow into you. Channel it, Jake."

Jake was sitting cross-legged in the center of a circle of power, an inscribed magical rune in the shape of a large ring. It had all sorts of strange symbols and writing along the sides, and the unfamiliar lettering seemed to glow with a dull, unearthly light. The circle of power was a large rune used to channel and magnify magical energy, and Jake was using it to familiarize himself with the essence of magic.... to try and feel its ebb and flow. The circle had been magically inscribed on the stone floor by powerful and wise mage, who was standing next to him, looking focused.

Jake was this mage's apprentice. He had started only a week ago, having been picked out from a throng of teenagers... all eager applicants. His choosing had something to do with his aura, his master had assured him. He remember how odd he seemed to act upon first meeting, refusing to shake hands or even touch him. He also seemed to have strangely vivid green eyes.... that was something that stuck with Jake for some reason. Yet, beyond his distant attitude and mannerisms, he was a kind old man, and Jake took no fault with him. Beyond his calm demeanor, and gruff, but kind personality, his master was also the owner of a rather large estate, and Jake was graciously given a place to stay so that he could study at any time, every day.

Magic was a dying art, something that was passed down to only a few people in these current times. It was important to preserve this arcane knowledge, and Jake was eager to learn.

The only problem is that he felt like wasn't learning anything at all.

"Focus, Jake.... do you feel it? Do you feel the magic of the rune coursing into your body? Familiarize yourself with this sensation, and when you do, I can begin to instruct you on how to control it."

With his eyes still closed, Jake furrowed his brow. "I feel....." He sighed and dropped his shoulders. "I feel absolutely nothing, just like yesterday. This isn't working."

"That's not what your aura is telling me. Open your eyes."

Jake did as ordered, and immediately gasped. His body was radiating the same color as the inscribed circle on the stone floor. He slowly brought a hand up to his face, studying the ethereal white light that seemed to flame off his skin like a hot breath on a winter day. A chill ran up his spine and spread throughout his body, and the glow seemed to get brighter from the sensation.

"Woah..."

He turned to look at his master and say something. But suddenly, Jake lost his focus and the white, whispery glow immediately disappeared.

"Awww...."

His master said nothing. He stood outside the circle, leaning on a staff. "Hm. Slow progress is progress still. Did you feel it?"

Jake solemnly nodded.

"Good. It's quite late already. You may rest for the night. Go and mediate on what you have learned. I will see you in the morning."

An hour later, and Jake was in bed, staring at the fresco of a cloudy sky that had been lavishly painted on the ceiling of his bed chambers. A lone candle was situated on his bed stand, plying a dim light around the room and casting dull and muddled shadows across the walls.

He was trying to recreate that feeling he had gotten earlier, trying to focus, but nothing was happening, no matter how hard he seemed to try. He then abruptly rolled to his side with an exasperated sigh. It wasn't working... he felt ridiculous for even trying. His master had assured him that he had invested magical ability based on his hidden aura, but more often than not, it seemed like he was just as magically dull as any average man. It had already taken him a week just to know how to "feel" magic and sense it!

With a grunt, he lifted his upper body up and leaned toward the candle, blowing it out in a firm puff of air. He watched the whispery trail of smoke rise to the air, and reflected on the similar nature to his own aura inside that magical rune just a little while earlier.

He gave up trying... Jake felt sleepy. He closed his eyes and relaxed, hoping to try again tomorrow under the help of that circle of power....

And then, just as he felt to be within inches of sleep's grasp, Jake heard the door to his bed chambers open with a creak. Immediately, he sat up in bed with a jolt, peering through the darkness. Even with only the latent moonlight illuminating his chambers through a window, he could clearly see that there was no one at the doorway.

Yet still, the door had clearly just opened.

"M-Master?" Jake called out. His own voice wavered in the air unsteadily. His only response was silence.

An involuntary chill ran down his neck. What was going on? Was his master putting him in some strange test? Quickly, he wracked his mind for ideas on what to do. A part of him felt a bit afraid to investigate. His mind wandered to the thought of a revealing spell, but attempting such a feat was far beyond his meager skills. Jake furrowed his brow.

Feeling unsure of the situation, Jake sat still, waiting for something to happen, but he was met with only silence. The door was still open, and no one was in sight. Jake was just to breathe a sigh of relief, when suddenly...

There was a whoosh, and in one fluid movement a creature of some sort jumped up onto the foot of his bed.

"Ahh!"

Jake jumped in fright at the sudden movement and put his hands up in reflex. His heightened emotions brought his latent magical abilities swirling forth, and a burst of raw magical energy traveled from his fingertips and spread outward in all directions. He watched with awe as the magic diverted around the creature around an invisible shield, dissipating the energy safely in the air.

And through the brief, flashing light of his own magic, he saw a glimpse of the creature's appearance. It was quadrupedal, around 3 feet tall, jet black in color, and carried a vaguely reptilian shape.

Suddenly, he heard a whimsical laugh, the voice being distinctly female, yet clearly not human. "Silly apprentice, trying to use magic against a dragon?"

With a gentle, unearthly breeze, he saw the candle at his bedpost come to life, illuminating the room before him. And what he saw surprised him.

Yes, it was a dragon that stood at the foot of his bed. And she was a beautiful creature, although small... in fact, she seemed to be about the size of a human on all fours. A coat of shiny, black scales covered her body, reflecting light and giving her a somber, warm glow in the gentle flicker of the candle. Her smooth horns too were colored a deep ebony shade, elegantly curling back from her head. Faint tints of a dark red were visible on the underside of her folded wings, hinting at the beautiful shade of a black ruby. Her sleek and streamlined body stood proud on elegant, but sturdy legs, and her long, muscular tail swayed softly in the air, completing her draconic frame.

But what stuck Jake the most were her eyes. The dragon's jet black coat was so dark that her eyes were easily the most catching and noticeable feature on her entire body. The dragon's vivid, expressive irises sparkled in a brilliant emerald hue, and they stared back at him through wild-looking, narrow slits. They shone in the candlelight like a pair of gems displaying their luster in the evening sun. Jake's eyes were immediately drawn to look at her own.

"I... I... what?" Jake stammered, unable to form a proper response. "You're a dragon!"

"Yes, very good," she giggled in an surprisingly human-like manner. And you are my Master's apprentice."

The dragon then casually sat down on her haunches in her corner of the bed, and stared at Jake for a moment, as if waiting for him to say something. Her tail wrapped loosely around her legs and the tip swayed in the air slowly.

"I'm sorry..." he fumbled for words in his mind. "Its just that... well, I've never seen one before."

Yes, Jake had never seen a dragon before, but had heard about them many times. He knew they were highly magical and intelligent creatures, very capable of rivaling human intelligence and cunning. Perhaps she was a familiar? A pet of some kind? She did just mention being under ownership of the same mage that was tutoring him. Regardless, the creature's behavior seemed amicable enough to indicate she as not here to harm him. Jake furrowed his brow, wondering what to do. Surely, this was some test by his master... perhaps she had a lesson for him, or a test to solve. He couldn't figure out what, though.

The dragon continued to sit and silently stare at him, almost looking content to do that and nothing else. He was a bit unnerved by her behavior, and a period of silence followed before Jake broke the tension with a clearing of his throat.

"So, um..." Jake pursed his lips. "Are you... um, are you a familiar spirit of my Master or something?"

The dragon cocked an eye-ridge at him and cocked her head. "A familiar? Sure, we can go with that." She chuckled. "But a spirit? Hardly. Do I look like some ghost to you?" The dragon slowly stood up once more and approached him. He felt the bed sink in under the weight of her body. Jake felt a little unsure of the situation as the creature approached his side. The dragon was really close to him now, and he felt a little uncomfortable having his personal space violated as she sat down next to his knees.

"Touch me, Jake. See for yourself." She smirked.

Trying to nod casually, he brought his hand up to her flank and laid his palm against it. Her scales felt smooth and slightly cool to the touch, like pebbles in a riverbed. Beneath her armored hide, Jake clearly felt the outline of her skin and lithe muscles underneath. The dragon was here in the flesh and blood.

"See? I'm real." The dragon seemed a little taunting in her expression. "But I'll give you bonus points for going with a summoning spirit. Reading up on your theory of magic casting, Jake? My master will be pleased to hear that."

Jacob flinched, remembering he still had to know why the dragon was here. "Oh, speaking of that.... Does your master have something for me? A test or lesson, maybe?"

The dragon gave a half-hearted laugh and shook her head. "Nope. He doesn't even know I'm here."

"Then why are you-"

"To meet you, of course." She interrupted, standing up once more. "To get to know you for real, this time, and... oh I dunno, see how you react to a dragon in your bed chamber." She giggled as her tail flicked in the air behind her. "Seeing you jump in fright was kind of cute. I could do without the magic casting, though. Especially when you can't even control it yet."

Jake was confused at her words, especially the "get to know you for real" part... But he didn't need to ask about them, as the dragon continued anyway.

The dragon smiled. "Oh, I've been keeping a casual eye on you since you've arrived, Jake... ever since my master chose you for apprenticeship. Dragons are good at hiding, you know. I could be under a rug, or behind the bookcase, or in a closet.... and you'd never find me." She grinned... the dragon looked rather pleased with herself at her statement.

Jake thought her choices of hiding spots sounded rather ludicrous, but he kept that thought to himself. "But why hide?"

The dragon turned away from him to take a gaze from afar at the window in Jake's room. "I'm not supposed to go outside in public too much, so I don't get to meet a lot of new people..." She turned completely to the window and sniffed the air as a gentle breeze blew by. "Its always quiet here... not many people to talk to. I'm bored, you know."

She seemed to be suddenly distracted by something outside... or maybe she abruptly became lost in some thought. With her back to him, Jake watched her tail as it swayed back and forth casually. It was somewhat raised in the air and idly, his gaze turned south. Jake could now clearly see she was indeed, a she. He felt a twinge of embarrassment from looking upon her womanly parts, but the area looked a little curious to him, as it was surprisingly similar to his own kind. In spite of himself, Jake continued to stare like some dumb oaf until-

"So?" The dragoness had her head turned and was peering at him with a curious glare that made Jake immediately feel uncomfortable. While he stared, the dragon did not drop her tail down nor act insulted. What did she mean? Was she.... was she asking what he thought of her body? No way. The idea sounded ridiculous and made his cheeks flush with embarrassment. He felt very awkward for being caught staring at the creature's rump.

Jake shifted in his bed and suddenly looked away. "Um.... I'm sorry."

But the dragon cocked her head and looked at him innocently. "Sorry about what?"

Jake flinched. "Um, nothing." He tried his best to look normal. Apparently, she didn't know what he was talking about after all.

Thankfully, the dragon did not dwell on the event. She casually turned to face him again. "So, like I was saying, I've been a bit lonely because I don't get to talk to many people. So let's do that for a little." The dragoness slowly approached him and lay down at his side. She curled up in a ball next to him. She peered at him for a second before smirking. "You're kind of cute for a human."

"I... um... okay." Jake sputtered out, handling the compliment rather poorly. He really had no idea what to say to her. This was his first time ever meeting a dragon, and was rather unsure of how to treat the situation. She was a cute 4-legged creature, and very beautiful, in fact. Part of him wanted to pet and stroke her. But he wasn't even sure if she'd take to the behavior or find insulting for being treated like an animal. He felt conflicted.

"What about your master, though? Don't you spend time with him?" he asked.

The dragoness turned away and gave an empty, sour laugh. "No, not really. It... well, it's complicated." The creature appeared to feel a little uncomfortable over the matter and quickly shifted in her spot, before changing the subject.

"Well, Jake.... How about we started on your lesson, instead?" The dragon looked at him with a strange, mischievous expression. "Tonight we're going to work on resisting charm spells."

Jake furrowed his brow in thought. Charms were spells you place on objects to alter their properties or behavior. Luck charms, weight charms, size charms.... those were the types of charms he was familiar with. But those types of charms were spells you cast on inanimate objects. Jake wasn't sure of the types you usually cast on people.

Moreover, learning to resist magic meant that he had to be the target of a spell this time, and that was something Jake felt really uncomfortable with.

He shifted a bit and sat up straighter, looking very hesitant. "Wait... Its awfully late already. And I thought you said there was no lesson," he asked, looking confused.

The dragon placed a paw on his lap and held it there as she looked at him in the eye. "Did I say that, Jake?" she asked, putting an overly innocent tone on the tail of the question. "Look into my eyes."

Without pausing to think about why, Jake did as ordered, suddenly noticing her eyes looked a bit different somehow... perhaps even more vivid and intense than ever. He suddenly couldn't look away.... her eyes felt oddly mesmerizing to him.

"I-uh...." Jake suddenly felt an intense wave of calm wash over him as he stared into the dragon's emerald irises. His mind became muddled. He felt transfixed.

The dragon giggled deviously. "Ooh, you're too easy.... I barely have to try."

He fought hard to hold on to his wits and managed to open his mouth to speak. "How... what are you doing to me?"

His brain felt like pudding. It was like all the will to flex a single muscle had been drained from him, and suddenly, it seemed like lying down on the bed and not moving sounded like best idea Jake had ever had in his entire life. Slowly, he laid back down, relaxing every fiber in his body. He felt his eyes begin to droop, but they stayed open enough to keep looking at the dragon's brilliant emerald irises. He could not pull away from her gaze.

"Its a hypnotism spell.... and a very weak one at that. It's completely harmless.... you'll just be a little more inclined to let me do whatever I want to you, that's it." She giggled deviously. "Such a malleable little human you are... you're making this too easy for me."

The dragon got up and placed a paw on Jake's chest. She stood over him, and looked directly into his eyes. Jake felt incredibly at peace with himself, and didn't mind the dragon being in his face one bit. He never even noticed the dragon's irises seemed to return to normal.

Her eyes narrowed to slits as she grinned. "Now Jake.... tell me I'm the most beautiful dragon in the whole wide world."

"You're the most beautiful dragon in the whole wide world." Jake solemnly repeated, nodding slowly. He then shrugged, not feeling convinced of the spell's powers. "Hey, I... I would have said that anyway."

The dragon let out a cute little giggle. "Oh ho ho... flattery will get you no where, you silly apprentice. Now... say you'll make me breakfast every day with the fresh strawberries you'll pick for me in the gardens."

"I'll make you breakfast every day with the fresh strawberries I'll pick for you in the..." Jake began to frown. "...gardens." Part of him was aware that he was being tricked into repeating what she said. The idea made him want to resist, but he was feeling too relaxed and at peace with himself to even care. Going along with her suggestions just seemed like a much more agreeable option, that's all. Why not repeat her words? There's nothing wrong with that...

The dragon squealed with delight, obviously enjoying the little game she playing quite a bit. "Why, thank you Jake... I've always wanted my own servant to make food for me." She stepped off of his chest and backed up. "Now sit up." Her tail twitched in the air in anticipation.

Frowning once more, Jake slowly pushed himself up with his arms. "Again, I would have done that anyway."

The dragon gave him a coy smile and cocked her head. "Oh, really Jake? Get out of bed and hop up and down on one foot for me." Her tail continued to twirl in the air with excitement.

Before he even knew what happened, Jake threw the covers off his body. But as he began to swing his legs off the bed, something in his mind snapped, and he suddenly paused and became conscious of his own actions.

"Wait a second.... why am I doing this?" Jake's expression suddenly turned into a proud grin as he looked at the dragon. "Ah ha! I did it!"

"Awww...." Her tail slowly sank to the ground as the dragon lowered her head, looking disappointed. But then she shrugged the event off, turning her back to him and moving to the corner of the bed with a haughty flick of her tail. "But that's okay... This is a really weak spell anyway, just for practice." Her expression turned devious. "If I wanted to I could have you doing backflips while quacking like a duck. Or spoon feed me home-made chocolate mousse you slaved away in the kitchen for hours making... just for me." The dragon churred quietly to herself from her own thought. Jake was a bit put off by how excited she seemed by the idea, but tried to ignore it.

"How... what is this spell doing to me?" he asked. His mind still felt like he was in the clouds.

The dragon turned to the side and flicked her tail in the air with a wave of nonchalance. "The effect works to simply make you relaxed, less self-aware, and makes it hard to question orders. It's less likely to work with commands you really don't want to do, though. Stronger spells just make it harder to resist, but the more practice you have being under the spell, the more your brain subconsciously becomes better at resisting it." She smiled, looking pleased to teach him. "Its important for a mage to learn how to resist harmful spells... very important. And since you seem to be such a sucker for my magic already..." The dragon giggled mischievously. "Looks like you really need to learn fast."

As she talked, Jake's eyes wandered to the dragon's body once more. She really was quite a beautiful creature.... her frame was sleek and toned, her tail and webbed frills looking vibrant and expressive in the dim glow of the candlelight. And her personality was fun and playful, as well... if a bit off-putting for him. He thought his master was quite lucky to have such a creature as his pet.

"Ahem." the dragon cleared her throat, causing Jake to flinch and bring her eyes back to her once more.

"Why were you staring at my body, Jake?" the dragon asked. She once again had that peering, mischievous grin on her face.

"Because I think you're a very beautiful dragon." Jake replied without hesitation, before suddenly flinching and becoming aware of the situation. He was still under the effects of the spell!

She began to turn around once more and took a step closer to him. "Really, Jake?" She giggled. "And what parts of me do you like?"

Jacob was starting to feel uncomfortable over the situation, but as his mind hesitated, his lips moved without his consent. "Just about everything in general. Your black scales are very beautiful with how they shine in the light. Your body is sleek and toned in a very attractive way. Your emerald eyes are very vivid and stunning. And your.... your..." Jake's brain managed to catch up with his lips and he suddenly contorted his face. "Hold on a minute, you're just making me say these things!" He looked exasperated.

The dragon laughed. "Not at all, Jake. I asked you a question, and the spell only encourages you to respond truthfully." The dragon turned away slightly, mimicking the act of blushing, even though her dark scales would hide the evidence anyway. She took another step closer to him, appearing enticed by where the conversation was heading. "....And that was very flattering of you, to compliment a dragoness like that."

The dragon took one more step closer. She moved slowly, almost as if she was stalking him.

"So what were you thinking when you were looking under my tail, Jake?" She stared at him with a lascivious, predatorial glare as she waited for an answer. "You know I saw you do it."

"I..... I, uh...." Jake was feeling like this conversation was headed in the wrong direction. He fought hard to regain his composure and struggled to not let his mind slip into the overwhelming sense of calm and peace that made him talk without thinking about it. With great difficulty, he formed his own, calculated response and sputtered the words out. "I... was thinking nothing, really."

The dragon dropped her grin for a moment, before taking a step closer. "Oh really, Jake? Look into my eyes and think about that again." Once more the dragon's irises seemed to come to life, and Jake's gaze was immediately drawn into them. His vision tunneled until felt like there was nothing in the whole world except for those beautiful, shining eyes. Everything else felt insignificant and distant to him.

And suddenly, Jake was at peace.

"Now Jake..." He heard a voice somewhere... almost as if it was inside his left ear. He felt warm breath on his earlobe. "Jake... were you getting naughty thoughts when you were peeking under my tail?"

His brain barely registered the paw that was softly placed on his shoulder. The only thing important, as far as Jake was concerned, was the incredible calm and peace he felt in his mind. Automatically, his mouth opened, and he responded without thinking. "Yes."

The dragon circled around him slowly, brushing up her flank against his back before coming to face him once more. "Mmmm.... And how would you feel if I started having naughty thoughts about you?"

"That makes me feel uncomfortable and conflicted," he responded, truthfully.

Slowly, the dragon began to pout. "And why is that?" She looked at him with sad eyes.

"Because I have never considered sex with another species before." Jake responded automatically, star-struck at the moment. Somewhere, in the back of his mind, he was wondering why he felt so calm when he just said he felt uncomfortable. The idea sounded strange to him....

The dragon got in his face and stared straight into his eyes. A paw appeared on his thigh once more, much closer to his crotch this time. "But if you feel conflicted, that means a part of you likes those naughty thoughts, right, Jake?" She playfully squeezed his thigh, causing him to tense up. The dragon's paw, so close to his crotch... knowing she had placed it there with sexual intent....

"Yes."

Jake heard her question. He knew he wanted to scream no. He wanted to push the dragon off of him. But he could not fight through the powerful aura of serenity and peacefulness his mind was feeling. Jake had felt his mouth open against his will, betraying his thoughts and wishes. And as the word had begun to form on his tongue, he cursed himself in his mind.

He had just admitted to having a sexual thought about a dragon, and that he liked the fact that she was having thoughts about him as well. It was too late, now. Too late to try and save face or try and explain himself.

The dragon giggled quietly under her breath at his response. "Then let's continue with your lesson, Jake." Her voice carried an undeniably sultry and seductive tone with it.

...He knew where this was going....

Slowly, the dragon approached his front and put a paw on his chest. Growling, she pushed with surprising strength and in an instant Jake felt himself lying down once again. He looked up at her, unwilling or unable to put of a fight... he wasn't sure which. The dragoness churred heatedly to herself as she climbed on top of him, putting her forepaws on his chest and crawling into his lap, straddling his hips in one slow, sinuous movement. He began to weakly squirm against the creature on top of him, but only managed to push back listlessly.

The dragon immediately dipped her hips down and pressed against his crotch, causing him to grunt. He felt the weight of the dragon's body on his crotch, and knowing her intentions and feeling her press down with clear desire... he was more than shocked by it all. Jake entire body stiffened up from the sensation. There was a dragon sensually straddling his hips, and not even in his wildest dreams could Jake have ever imagined the possibility. His mind was swimming. He felt odd being in such a situation with a different species, but the sheer intoxicating seduction he was receiving was getting harder and harder to ignore by the second.

"Do you know how long ago it's been since I've had a mate, Jake?" Her words dripped with a smooth, silky tone of voice as she situated her groin on top of his own.

"N-no, I don't know." he stammered.

The dragon let out a low, guttural purr as she bent down and licked his cheek. She then moved to his left ear and whispered the words to him.

"Its been... far too long. Sometimes, I get lonely. And sometimes.... I get antsy."

Jacob gasped as the dragon began to slowly grind against his crotch. He was only wearing a light set of pajamas, and the thin fabric did not hide much sensation. He felt her scales on him, and how smooth they seemed. He felt her warmth, her body heat... cooler than his own yet still warmer than the air around him. Her left paw wormed under his shirt where it began to stroke and feel his bare chest, and she toyed with his warm skin, caressing it with the firm, leathery pads of her toes. It was there that both he and the dragon felt his ever-quickening heartbeat.

A long, slow lick was drawn across his neck. Jacob gasped at how her tongue felt.... it was as delicate and soft as silk, as warm as a summer day, and slick with a slippery, draconic saliva that felt thicker from his own. He put a hand up to the dragon's chest and pushed back weakly, his brain putting up a last effort of resistance.

"H-hey..." Jacob panted. "Hold on a bit..."

The dragon nudged his ear and licked at his lobe as she continued to slowly grind against him. "Why?" she whispered.

Surprisingly, Jake could find no answer to the dragon's question, and stared back at her looking nonplussed. Seeing this, the dragon only let out a pleased murmur. A forepaw gripped his shoulder as she slowly shifted her hips and rhythmically pressed in against his crotch with a sinuous, serpentine motion. She was grinding right against his cock, her body demanding it, imploring it to grow and stiffen. Her velvet tongue lapped at his cheek. She playfully bit the side of his neck. The amorous nibbling caused him to gasp. The black-scaled dragon moved slowly, sensually... with a clear goal in mind: enticing arousal.

And Jake was now sold.

Slowly, his hands move upwards to the dragon's shoulders and touched her scales again. His hands moved on their own accord as he began to stroke and pet the dragoness on top of him. The dragon crooned at his touch, loving his wandering hands and shivering from the warm caress. "Yes, Jake... feel me. Feel my body and my scales." she murmured.

He felt her cool, pebbly scales on his palms, the articulate muscles and bones underneath, and her rising rib cage as it moved with every breath she took. He cradled the dragon in his hands and ran his fingers down her flanks, across her back and chest, feeling her body, getting familiar with the unorthodox quadrupedal design that was becoming more and more agreeable by the moment. He let out an involuntary whisper of disbelief at the situation, but the excitement in his voice was unmistakable.

This dragon was coming on to him! The idea felt deliciously exotic, horribly enticing, and wholly exciting to Jake. The black-scaled creature crooned as she felt his hands on her body and gave another sinuous dip in her hips to grind against his growing member.

"Does my apprentice like this lesson?" She gave a husky growl and nipped at his shoulder.

"Yes..." Jake gasped. His mind was swimming, his chest felt tight with anticipation. He ran his hands down to her hips and held the dragon there, looking up at the dragoness with a mixture of shock and arousal.

"Then let's continue."

Jake felt a fire ignite in his chest at the dragon's words. Grinning, the dragon lifted her hips up off his crotch and stood up, and Jake found that he suddenly missed the feeling of her body on top of his own. Letting out a deep, throaty purr, the feral dragon took a few steps off of him and backed up. She then bent down, nosed under his shirt, and immediately began licking across his belly. The dragon slowly moved north, laying down on his body as she squirmed forward. Jake felt every scale of her belly and chest as it moved across his skin. She began worming more of her head underneath as she licked farther up, stretching the fabric of his shirt taunt. Her horns slipped underneath his shirt just as Jake felt her smooth, velvet tongue lap at his chest and pectorals, licking almost hungrily and churring to herself in a deep, bestial tone that could not be mistaken for anything other than arousal.

A voice came out from under his shirt, carrying a lavishly seductive tone of voice to his ears. "Let's get these silly little clothes off of you right now." He then felt a long nuzzle from the dragon's snout across his sternum.

Immediately, Jake rose up a little and pulled the stretched shirt around the dragon's neck and up to his chest. He fumbled a bit in his haste, getting hung up on her pointed horns as she continued to lick, but he managed to cast off the shirt as quickly as he could. Uncovering the black dragoness once again, he looked into her emerald eyes, unable to hide his excited smile. The creature purred as she looked back and continued to lathe her tongue on his chest, enjoying the taste of his skin, the salt in his sweat, and the smell of his masculine musk. She breathed in his scent greedily with her sensitive nose, smelling a full range of decadent pheromones that were lost to insensitive human nose. She even tasted them... her sophisticated taste buds picked up his body's chemical signals, and the flavor of raw male arousal acted like a catalyst that only encouraged the dragon further.

Taking a few steps back again, the black dragoness planted a forepaw next to his belly as she began to lap at his stomach once more. Her other paw hooked around the waistband of his pants and pulled down in one fluid moment, revealing his hardening member and delicate sack. She grabbed the fabric in her mouth and yanked with a growl, stepping around the pajama pants as they were pulled down to Jake's ankles, where the apprentice kicked them off in a hurry. He was wearing nothing else.

In the back of his mind, Jake's thoughts wandered to the idea of what a dragon would think of a human's equipment, and how male dragons might be different. But the black dragoness made no comment, no pause, or no indication that she was seeing anything she did not expect. She instead laid down between his legs and immediately began to lap at his member in a heated, passionate show of arousal. "God yes..." she murmured to herself, almost whispering the words. Her forepaws immediately traveled to his crotch, and Jake gasped as she wrapped her digits around his girth, squeezing it, feeling it.... caressing it as she licked. Her delicate tongue felt silken smooth on his cock, and it spread her draconic saliva around easily. A paw traveled to his balls, and he jumped in reflex, not being used to having wandering claws touch his sensitive skin.

The dragon gave a provocative glare and spoke to him in a lusty tone. "Stop squirming, Jake. Or else I'll have to hold you down," she growled playfully as she resumed licking across his shaft. He felt her tail slide around his left leg. It curled underneath his calf and wrapped around it tightly, holding it firmly in her grasp.

The dragon laying between her legs ran her lips across his shaft with a pleased murmur. The sensation was electrifying, and Jake became erect in mere moments. Her tongue flicked out wildly as she explored his ever-stiffening member, tracing every inch of skin with her paws and tongue, and delighting in the firm toy before her eyes. And before he knew it, the lusty dragoness opened her mouth and brought the tip of his cock toward her maw, slipping it in between her jaws and closing down around his shaft with a pleased groan. Jake immediately seized up and swore in a mixture of surprise and arousal, causing the black-scaled creature to look up at him and giggle. She paused, holding her lips back and twisting her head to the side to show off his cock that was nestled in between her jaws.

Jake was beside himself with excitement. His mind was swimming in arousal and he stared silently at the dragon, too shocked to say a word. Giggling, the dragoness then closed her eyes and turned her head back to its original position.

And then began to suck and lap at the organ in her mouth, excitedly fluttering her wings in reflex as she sucked and pleasured her new-found mate.

Jake was beside himself with pleasure. The first thing that struck him was the incredible warmth of her mouth. Her smooth, velvet tongue worked wonders on his shaft, undulating and lapping along the underside as she worked him. He gasped as she clamped down firmly as she suckled with a horribly effective rhythm. It was all so sudden and intense, and Jake squirmed and groaned in bed as these incredible new feelings filled him with ecstasy, groaning meaningless words of pleasure. He felt a small wealth of pleasure grow in his groin, and he suddenly flexed, shooting a spurt of precum into the dragon's mouth. She tasted it immediately and let out a pleasured murmur, apparently enjoying the mild flavor. Growling playfully, the dragon sunk her head lower and began bobbing her maw on half of his length. Her tail, still wrapped around his leg, squeezed anxiously as she brought her forepaws to the side of Jake's hips. And as she worked him with her mouth, she slowly began moving lower and lower until almost the entirety of his cock was firmly cradled in between the dragon's lips.

The black-scaled dragoness bobbed her head diligently, lathing her wet tongue with skill on the underside of his cock as she worked him. She was grunting and groaning to herself, her eyes closed and calm.... the dragon looked like she enjoying herself almost as much as he, beyond all logic. Jake was mesmerized by the eager creature between her legs, feeling and seeing all of her movement: how she squeezed his hips and pawed at his skin wantonly, how her tail and hips wriggled in the air in anticipation and excitement, her steady, rhythmic suckling and bobbing along his length... it all seemed too ridiculous, too outrageous to be true, but a small, black dragon was giving him a very eager blowjob. And Jake was enraptured by it all.

She twisted her mouth suddenly, until her jaws were side by side, and sunk to his base once more. There the dragon undulated her velvet tongue and massaged his shaft as his tip teased at her throat. And there she pushed down further, contorting her neck in a loop and sending her jaws past his crotch until the tip of his cock entered her throat. She grunted as she pushed down far, angling her head against his belly so that her long snout moved below to his balls, and she eventually sunk her cheek against the base of his crotch, with his cock penetrating directly past the back of her mouth and into her throat.

The pressure of the dragon's throat around his shaft was already incredible, and he wasn't even prepared for when she began a rhythmic, repeated swallowing motion. It was almost too much for Jake as he felt the powerful peristaltic contractions of her muscles. He seized up, grabbed a hold of her head and horns as he swore out loud. His eyes rolled in the back of his head as he gave into the intense, undulating pressure around his cock, lost in the moment of this reptilian creature deep-throating him to orgasm. He felt himself tensing up, and she did too. It was only a matter of time, and Jake felt himself about to lose it when...

The dragon suddenly rose her head up and she came off of him with a loud gasp and an inhale of fresh air, and Jake looked on in a stupor as the thick sheen of draconic saliva covering his cock reflected the dim candlelight to his eyes. Not intent on losing his momentum, the dragoness brought her forepaws up to his length and grasped firmly at his slick skin, sliding her pads up and down quickly, almost looking desperate to finish him.

"Come on, Jake... come for me. Come in my mouth and on my tongue. I want it!" she growled, and continued to lap greedily, almost hungrily at the underside of his tip as she worked him with her paws.

Feeling the eager paws around his length squeeze and stroke him, and the tongue lapping lasciviously across his tip, Jake could only do so much to hold back and let his pleasure build. He was at the mercy of the dragon and her efforts to get him off. Slowly, he felt the pressure rise up in his groin, and before he knew it, he felt his body surge with tension. He swore loudly as his orgasm welled up inside.

The dragoness felt his member stiffen, and she let out an excited cry as she worked him with her paws, suddenly opening her mouth wide and sticking her velveteen tongue out to catch her prize. She groaned as the first spurt of his milk shot out and sprayed across the roof of her open maw. It caught her intimidating, carnivorous teeth and and coated them in sticky seed. The second spurt landed across her tongue, and the dragoness immediately tasted his flavor, and all the indulgent, delectable pheromones, that so enticed her own arousal. She closed her mouth to savor the sweet, savory flavors of arousal when an unexpected third spurt caught her along the snout and face, splashing across her black-hued scales and covering them with a white, milky mess.

With a heated purr, the dragoness excitedly closed her lips around the tip of his cock and suckled firmly, trying to coax out the last few drops of the delectable seed. She continued until Jake's member began to soften in her paws.

When she could get no more, the black-hued dragoness looked at Jake provocatively before opening her maw wide, showing off her messy teeth and inner cheeks just dripping with his spunk, and the pool of sticky liquid she collected on the width of her tongue. Giggling, the she then closed her eyes and savored the taste for a moment before arching her chin up to the sky and swallowing several times. She then opened her mouth wide to show off her now somewhat clean maw to him, giggling giddily to herself.

The black dragoness churred as she took his length in her paw and licked it clean. She appeared enthralled with his taste, and slowly cleaned him, whispering words of how good he had tasted and how much she loved it.

Jake was panting hard. He had just been sucked off by a dragon and had absolutely loved it. The black dragoness wriggled her hips as she looked up at him and churred. She still had that line of his spunk across her snout. The milky white color stood out against her ebony scales.

"Did you like that, Jake?" she asked in a low, seductive tone. Her behavior appeared increasingly antsy to him, and she repeatedly wriggled in place, pressing in between his legs and drawing her paws against his skin.

He weakly nodded, at a loss for words for the moment. The black-scaled dragon slowly got to her feet, giving his member one last squeeze before climbing on top of him once more. He felt her muscular tail slide around his constricted leg until he was free. The dragon licked heatedly across his chest and purred.

"God, it felt so good to have you in my mouth, to feel the rush, the excitement, the pleasure.... and god, the taste!" She grabbed his shoulders with her paws and dipped her hips against his once more. "And now I want you to return the favor, Jake." Her lips found his ears and the dragon hissed into them. "I want you to tongue at my cunt, Jake. I want you to tongue at my cunt and lick me and make me squeal." She churred excitedly at her own words, suddenly turning around, licking along his body the entire way, until she stood over him head-to-tail. "God, I want that so bad right now. Just lick me!" she cried, suddenly sitting down again on his chest and cupping his softening member and balls in her paws as she raised her tail to him wantonly, revealing her feminine parts to him.

Jake's mind was moving too fast to make sense of things. The dragon had sat down on his chest again, only the wrong way, with her haunches lifted above his face and her head temptingly close to his own cock. He felt her reptilian body on top of his... the weight of her body, her slight warmth. As he looked up, seeing the dragon's hindquarters just inches above his face caused him to suck in a sudden breath. Her black, scaly slit was puffed and engorged, parted slightly from arousal, giving a view of the pink flesh within. Her fluids were copious on her skin, collecting along the outside of her lips and looking almost ready to drip down. Her smell too, he noticed.... being a very unique, musky scent of a dragon in full arousal. He felt daunted by the task that lay before him, but as he once more felt a soft tongue on his member and a heated growl reverberate in the chest of the creature above, Jake felt any instance of reluctance melt away. Grabbing the dragon's hindquarters, he guided her hips to his own face, and instantly pressed his lips against her own.

Jake felt the softness of her flesh there, how smooth and yielding her outer scales were to his touch, the delicate give of her inner pink skin, her surprising warmth and how it felt hotter than any other part of her body. He tasted her fluids, immediately getting a tangy, savory flavor of her arousal on his tongue. The dragoness gasped at his exploring mouth, immediately digging her claws into the soft bed she stood on, and leaned back, desperately wanting more.

"Yes!" the dragoness growled, and wantonly leaned back into his face. "Lick my cunt, Jake. Eat me out until I gush all over your face!"

Jake let out a groan of arousal as he began to mouth and lip at the dragon's slit, finding it far, far more agreeable than he would have imagined for such a non-human creature. He pressed in, feeling her warm slit part and press against his cheeks as he mouthed and lapped at the flesh inside, wriggling his tongue around and exploring her soft flesh, pressing against it and feeling the resistance of her sensitive walls. He felt her draconic fluids smother his mouth and chin. The dragon above him seethed and hissed in pleasure, groaning from the sensation. He wrapped his hands around her tail and hips, and stroked her scales as he explored, finding the exotic feel of her armored hide becoming more and more enticing by the minute.

Shifting his body a little, Jake began to lick just a tiny bit farther down on her body, coming to her clitoris. There he flicked his tongue across her sensitive nub, causing the dragon to tense up and squirm in his embrace.

"Oh god, that's it. Yes, tongue my clit!" she cried out to him, lifting her tail even higher. He felt her forepaws holding on to his body tightly as the dragon seethed in her arousal, wanting nothing more than for him to continue. Jake drew his tongue around the sensitive nub in circles, pushing and prodding the little erect button and lathing at it with steady licks. Her scaly body was becoming quite an exotic feeling for the apprentice, and he found himself often running his hands across her flanks, tail, and back as he serviced her folds diligently, bringing the dragon to a small climax as she shuddered and groaned, gushing a small bit of fluids across his mouth.

I wasn't long before Jake had brought his fingers into the mix. His index finger replaced his tongue, where it massaged and rubbed at the dragon's clit at a steady pace. Now free, his tongue eagerly returned to the dragon's slit where he explored her warm passage in all it's various nooks and folds. The dragoness let out a tiny squeak as Jake stuck his tongue in as far as it could go and began to thrust it inward. Her entire body began to stiffen up as her muscles tightened and she opened her mouth wide to squeal in pleasure. She came around his mouth, her cunt convulsing around his intruding tongue and probing, muscular lips. Her liquids flushed out onto his face, feeling warm and tasting almost sweet to his mouth. He was surprised she was coming already, but had no intentions of stopping yet. Jake continued to lick and lap against her flesh even harder than before. Feeling a rush of arousal at his efforts to get the dragon off only made him more eager to continue, and he thrust his tongue in as deep as he could in her sweet little slit, eager to pleasure and explore.

Jake quickly learned just how antsy this dragon was... It had only taken a few more minutes and he had already brought the dragon to another orgasm. He serviced the dragon diligently as she came down of her high. Fluids dripped down the side of his mouth and down his chin. He felt warm paws stroking his ever-stiffening member. And Jake loved every minute of it.

He slowly removed his mouth from the dragon's dripping cunt to take a break. He lay there in silence, with his hands on the the dragon's butt, feeling her panting on top of him. "Mm, that was great, Jake," she murmured, sounding very satisfied to his ears. "And now, it's time to continue your lesson."

He suddenly felt her body rise off his own as the dragoness bounded off of him. Taking a step, she then planted her feet and rose her tail high, revealing her now fluid-covered slit. It was still puffed with arousal and the liquids on her rear reflected in the dim candlelight of the flame at his bedside. She looked back at Jake with a lowered head and shoulders, her panting hot and loud to his ears, and she stared at him with half-open eyes, grinning mischievously with a look of naughty desire.

"Fuck me, Jake. Take me."

Nothing else needed to be said. Silently, Jake got up and wiped his mouth clean on the back of his arm. He eagerly approached her on his knees, finding she was a good height for him in this position. Jake was beyond thoughts now, beyond self-awareness.... somewhere in the back of his mind, he felt a twinge of oddness as he prepared himself to have sex with this dragon that he had just met, but he was far too aroused to pay any attention to it.

Jake bent forward and wrapped an arm around her chest as he took his cock in his other hand and lined himself up, immediately feeling a surge of excitement as the tip of his member brushed up against her warm, scaled slit. With a push, he felt her inviting lips spread for him, and suddenly the head of his cock was nestled in between the dragon's lips. Jake gasped as he glided in slowly, aided by her natural fluids, feeling her firm walls hug his member and encase it in a warm embrace.

"God, you feel amazing," he gasped, holding on to her tight as he slid inward. The dragon's internal passage was tight around him and the smooth, gliding feeling of her walls sent his mind reeling in pleasure. Jake felt the dragoness tense up in his arms, letting out a tiny squeak as she was penetrated and taken. He slid in the entire way, savoring the warmth of her body and pressed in until his hips rested lightly against her own. Her thick, raised tail rested against his chest, the scales feeling cool on his skin.

The dragoness pushed back into his hips with a growl and Jake felt her weight and muscles against his own. "Fuck me, Jake," she hissed, suddenly constricting him as she flexed her feminine passage around him. The feeling caused him to gasp and squeeze her with his arms. The little black dragon certainly knew how to entice.

This was it. He was having sex with a dragon... one that he had just met at that! He almost laughed at the ridiculousness of the situation, but Jake was too aroused to react to the humor. Not when he had this wonderful, slick feeling pressing in on all sides of his cock, urging him to move and take the dragon he held. Slowly he prodded her depths, going at a casual pace and memorized by the warm passage he sunk into, feeling her tight cunt lips that were spread wide around his cock, and pressing in until his balls pressed against her crotch.

The dragon arched her back and pressed into his hips. "No no: fuck me.... take me and pound me. I want to feel you slam into my hips, Jake. I want you to bend me over, give it rough, and make me squeal! God, just do it, please! I need it." The dragon churred and rocked into him, eager to get things going, and Jake gasped as held her tight around the belly. He held her close as he moved his hips back and began to thrust in to her faster, bending over and steadying one hand on the bed to hold his weight while the other felt up her scaled body. Her scales were cool on his hands.... but the aroused dragon carried a mild warmth with her that he did not remember her having earlier.

"Yes!" she hissed as she felt his cock begin to move inside of her. "Mm, you fill me up just right... it feels so good," she said, longingly drawing her words out. Her paws dug into the soft bedding and gripped the sheets in bunches as she was taken. Her tail squirmed and shifted against his chest. Jake felt felt almost like it was acting on its own accord with the way it flexed and curled against him, and how it occasionally wrapped around his arm or chest and squeezed tightly. Jake was beside himself. He felt his heart racing, his pulse pounding, and the little dragoness below him was driving him completely wild. He took her with an exuberant pace, lost in the moment and the movement of her soft walls, thoroughly coated with her copious fluids gliding against his cock.

The dragon curled her neck back to nudge his chin, roughly nuzzling him in a heated show of arousal. "Harder" she whispered, pausing to let her tongue escape her lips and draw across his cheek. "Fuck me harder, Jake. I need this.... I want it hard. I want you to ravage me like a big, forceful drake would." He felt her nuzzle his chin once more. "Please, Jake!"

"S-shit! Okay!" he gasped, not even caring how decidedly un-sexy he had sounded. Jake was beyond trying to entice her... and its not like she needed it anyway! He was balls deep in an eager dragon and the only thing he was concerned about was how to continue.

He suddenly pulled back until he was almost out of the dragon, until just his head was nestled between her cunt lips. Letting a teasing grin play across his face, he then suddenly slammed in quickly, driving all the way to the base and knocking her entire body forward with the power of his thrust.

"Ah!" the dragon jumped and squealed in pleasant surprise from the sudden forcefulness. She hissed a quiet "yes" to him and shivered in his arms.

The dragoness bent forward and dipped her chest to the ground, signaling Jake to lean over her. He followed suit, bending down and wrapping an arm around her chest and neck. He felt the dragon's folded, leathery wings on his chest. They felt delicate and light to him, and he was careful not to press against the fragile limbs too much. Her thick tail was bent back completely over her back, proving to be surprisingly flexible. In this new position, he used his weight to slam into the dragon's hindquarters repeatedly. He felt every press of her body, and was taken by the tight, draconic cunt that he was burying his cock in.

Jake pounded the dragon beneath him, moving his hips like a piston. His eyes were shut tight as he held her, focusing on the incredible gliding pressure around his cock and the exotic feel of the scales and thick tail pressing against his body. He heard the dragoness panting as she was dominated, squeaking and whispering to herself as she was taken, loving every second of the rough sex she was getting.

The intensity of Jake's steady pounding caused the dragon to open her mouth wide and squeal in a high pitched voice. This was it, he felt her coming to climax quickly. The dragoness gushed her clear fluids around his cock as she was taken to orgasm, tightening up around him and quivering under her new mate that had come to take her with such intensity. She locked her body in position, lowered her head, and shivered as immense waves of pleasure welled up inside of her passage and swept through her body. Her hips moved in automatic as she came hard around his cock, and Jake gasped from the tight, undulating movements of her vaginal walls. They felt unreal... the rhythmic motions seemed to try and draw his cock in deeper. The feeling was unlike anything he had experienced before. He grit his teeth and dug his nails into her armored hide as he continued to pound her, feeling his orgasm approach as the dragoness began to come off of her own.

And with a sudden lurch, Jake groaned as he slammed into the dragoness' hips once more. His cock seized up and he felt a rush of pressure travel up and out of his body as he came within her warm depths. He swore loudly and held the dragon's hips tight against his own as he felt his cock throb and spew its seed inside of her, feeling nearly unbearable pleasure. He felt several spurts unload themselves into the depths of this dragon, and his body lurched with every movement. He could barely hold himself up, and most of his weight was put on the black-hued dragon's back and shoulders. She shivered under him as she felt the stiff cock inside spurt and seize, coating her walls in a sticky mess deep within.

And as he came down from his incredible high, Jake leaned back to dismount, panting heavily. He watched as a sticky trail of their mixed juices followed his cock, connecting from the tip of his shaft hanging from the dragon's used cunt. He watched it sway in the air until the strand of fluids finally broke and landed on the sheets.

His body felt warm and tingly. His head was swimming in a soup of euphoria. His cock felt wonderfully spent. He fell backwards and stretched his aching legs out, bringing a hand to his chest.

That was...." he panted. "Incredible."

The dragon got up and laid on her side down next to him, leaning against his body and resting her head on the bed."Yes it was.... god, that felt so good to have someone inside of me again." he heard her reply. She weakly shifted her body to press against his own with a quiet churr.

"I needed that so bad. Thank you." she murmured, nuzzling his forearm on her snout.

The black-scaled dragoness then shifted her body and tucked her head between her legs. She was positioned so that Jake could clearly see her used cunt, full of his seed. A bit was leaking out of her hole, drooling down onto her tail base. Slowly, the dragon lapped up the leaking fluid and tasted it eagerly with a pleased "Mmm". She then wormed her soft tongue in between her cunt lips and spread them on the flat of her tongue a bit, licking up everything she found. After a few more slow licks, she then angled the tip of her soft tongue inward and penetrated herself, lapping along her walls. She worked her cunt with the intent to lap up his fluids, and she murmured with a fit of pleasure as she found them deep inside, whispering how good he tasted to her as she cleaned herself. She savored his flavor and pressed his cum around in her mouth before swallowing eagerly, before diving back into her own cunt in search for more.

He chuckled as he watched her. The show she put on would have coaxed another erection out of him had he not been quite spent already.

Slowly, Jake's smile faded as he came to reflect on the situation. His head felt fuzzy... was it the lingering effects of her hypnotic mind control spell? Had she seduced him and made him unable to say no? He felt a bit uncomfortable over the thought.... but looking back, he wondered if he would have just said yes anyway. At any rate, he now knew that dragon sex was fantastic, and he'd do it again in a heartbeat, hypnotized or not. Slowly, he cleared his throat and opened his mouth to speak, before realizing he didn't even know the name of this seductive creature yet.

"So, uh... " He winced out of the awkwardness of the situation. "Um, what's your name?"

The dragoness only laughed. "Jade... my name is Jade."

He smiled a bit, feeling relieved "So... ah, I have a question." he stated, and continued before she could respond. "Am I still under the effects of your mind control spell?"

She looked up at him. "Nope. That wore off a long, long time ago, you silly apprentice."

He furrowed his brow. "Really? When?"

"That's for you to figure out." she said teasingly and gave him a gaze equally as sly.

Jake stared at her a moment, slightly peeved that he wasn't going to get a real answer. But he decided to let it go and laid back down on the bed with a sigh and a wide grin. "Man... I can't believe I had sex with a dragon... I mean, it's crazy, when you think about it." He rambled absentmindedly in his afterglow, not even thinking if his words might offend her.

The dragon in question seemed to shift suddenly, reacting to his words in an disquieting manner.

"Do you... feel uncomfortable over it?" she tentatively asked.

Jake paused, realizing where she was getting at but felt reluctant to answer truthfully. The idea of having sex outside his own kind still unnerved him, especially if you look at it like that and take away the emotions behind what he had just done. Yes, it was strange and wild and crazy and uncomfortable. But that did not change how incredible the sex with this black dragoness had been. It had been wild, passionate... intense. He enjoyed it immensely.

The dragoness interpreted his silence as an answer she did not like and stood up. "To be honest..." she turned away. "I'm feeling a bit ashamed over having sex with a human like this, myself. I was afraid you'd feel uncomfortable about it as well."

Jake bit his lower lip, suddenly feeling very self conscious. "What do you mean?"

Jade turned her head. "Don't worry about it. In the mean time..." She looked back at him. "I think it's time for the next part of your lesson, Jake."

Jake blinked and sat up straighter. "More lessons? Woah, hold on a second. After all of...." He gesticulated in the air "...that? What do we still have to do?"

The dragon closed her eyes and chuckled, but it sounded oddly empty of any real humor to him. "We never finished our original lesson and there's another thing I have to teach you to resist: memory charms."

Suddenly, several things clicked into place and a chill ran down his spine. Jake knew at once what was going to happen. "Wait... I'm not going to remember this, am I?"

Jade sunk her head down and sighed. "No Jake... you wont."

Before he could do anything else, the dragon then turned to meet his gaze. Her eyes once again appeared to shine and glow, and Jake immediately felt transfixed by her gaze. But this time, he could tell something was different about the spell he was hit with. This was a powerful spell, and he had no chance to react or fight back. Jake felt his eyes begin to close almost automatically as he was hit with an intoxicating sleepiness. His vision tunneled until the only thing he saw were the dragon's beautiful emerald irises.... The only thing, and also the last thing he saw for the night. Before he knew it, his mind had drifted off and Jake had fallen into a deep sleep.

The black-scaled dragoness stood and stared at the sleeping apprentice, her face contorted into a frown. She walked over to him and gently touched a forepaw to his shoulder.

"I'm sorry, Jake," Jade said, sighing.

The dragoness had it in her mind to leave, but all of the sudden she felt a twinge of reluctance. She had gotten the thought to sleep with him the rest of the night. Her mind quickly day-dreamed to the thought of having someone to sleep with for the first time in many years. The idea of having a body to lie next to and strong arms to hold her, to comfort her....

But Jade shrugged those thoughts away, knowing it would be wrong as well. She had just wiped his memory: Jake had no recollection of what had happened and didn't know who she was. She couldn't wake in his bed with him like that.

... but then again, she didn't want to just pretend their mating had never happened, either. The dragoness did not know what to do about her situation just yet.

With a frown, she reluctantly tore herself from the bed and jumped down, walking to the doorway. The dragon looked back at the sleeping apprentice and smirked.

"I'll see you for your next lesson, Jake."

With a glimmer of silent magic, the candle at the apprentice's bedside snuffed its self out.

THE END

Post story notes:

~Ho-kay, where do I begin? So much to say about this one. So because this is a prequel to an existing story, it is effectively chapter zero. I called it the induction because of how Jake gets induced into having sex: via hypnotism/mild mind control. If you pay attention to Xianyu's original stories, the dragoness gives references to Jake "being under her spell" and while it's never stated what that meant, I figured she's an agressive enough dragon to try something like magical persuasion. :P

~_So if you didn't JUST notice from my previous note, I had to literally STUDY Xianyu's stories in order to write about them. I'm a very thorough person by nature. I need to know and understand everything before I get into it. So, I read and re-read parts to make sure I got the plot stuff right and to make sure I wasn't writing characters saying or thinking things they wouldn't do in Xianyu's mind. It was a lot of work! But I did not mind it too much because I like Xianyu's writing and I really enjoyed his stories a lot. :) _

~The ending is a bit sad, I know. But the dragoness is a somewhat sad character and it fits with the story, IMO.

~Xianyu really wanted anal. I couldn't fit it in, even though I had told him I would put it in earlier. It would just be too long.... the story would drag on a ton if I did add it. So now I need to write another story for him because I'm a sap and don't want to tell him no. XD

~Not generally a fan of dirty talk and vulgar words, but Xianyu likes them. He is also particular about NOT talking about feral dragons in animal terms. So I had to adjust my style of writing a bit and use words like "cunt" instead of "vent".

~The nameless dragon (finally revealed to be named Jade in the end) is a complicated character. In Xianyu's own words, she's a bit of a mindfuck. Its ambiguous as to what her motives are. Why was she hiding from him for a week? Why does she have to stay away from the public? What's her relationship with her master? Was she telling the truth when she said she came in just to talk? Why did she wipe his memory? Was it really a part of her lesson? Were ANY of her magic spells really part of a lesson to begin with? I really had to sort these things out before I could write them, and it was all quite difficult, partly because Xianyu was writing up his story as he went. >___> But I figured most of them out.

~The "touch me, see if I'm real and not a ghost" scene was inspired by Silent Hill 2 which was a scary-as-fuck game but holy shit the dialog is so horrendous in that game. XD
