Soul's Eternal Flame

Ch: 4

The first thing Nikoli knew was pain. Pain throughout his body, he slowly opened his eyes and his vision was too unfocused for him to see anything. He tried to move, when he did, he felt something keeping him from moving very much. That was when he felt the weight on his arms, legs, his torso and even his tail. He tried to open his mouth, and he felt resistance there too. He blinked his eyes a few time, trying to clear his vision, and he grunted as he tried to move some more, finding that he couldn't move much at all. Then he heard someone call out to him, a female's voice. Deni's voice,

"Nik? Baby, are you awake?" She asked.

Nik grunted again as he feebly strained against his restraints, before answering her. He found that he could indeed talk, but that was all. As his vision cleared, he could barely make out the muzzle that was over his jaws.

"Yes, I am. Where the hell are we? And what the hell happened?" He asked, grimacing at the pain he felt in the back of his head. Managed to turn his head in her general direction, and his vision at this point where he could just make out her form.

"We were jumped, upon returning to your room. Oh baby, I don't know what they want, but they haven't said anything to me. All they said is that they weren't going to harm me, if I didn't put up much of a fight. Like I have that option." She said, with a hint of sarcasm in her voice.

"Why's that? And who are ‘they'?" He asked.

"I'm chained and bound just like you baby. And its three dragons, a red, green like me, and a white." She said.

Nik froze when she said white. He looked straight at her, and his vision cleared up a little more, and he saw she was in chains, just like he was. He also noticed that they were inside a cave, lit by four torches, one on each wall. But upon looking back, and seeing his new mate in chains, enraged Nik. How ever, upon looking at her, her manner seemed calm, a slight hint of fear, and lots of anger was apparent in her expression, but other than that, strangely calm.

"This white, can you describe him to me? Did he give you his name?" He asked.

Deni shook her head, "He didn't give me a name, but he's big. Almost as large as you, and he has some pretty nasty scars down his left flank, and both sides of his neck, almost like he was bit by something large." She said.

Nik loosed a heavy sigh. "That something was me. I fought him a long time ago. His name is Sinra." He said.

"Sinra? What a funny name. Who would name their son Sinra?" She asked, a laugh barely kept hidden as she said this.

Nik eyed Deni, how was it she was acting like this, when they were in such a situation. He pondered on how she was so calm, and was able to crack jokes.

"That someone who named him was my father. Sinra is my brother." He said.

Deni froze, she eyed him carefully. "There is more to this than I know, isn't there?" She asked.

"Yes, Sinra is my brother. He isn't an actual white, he is a black, like me. However, he is an albino. He doesn't like me much, especially since I was originally mated to the female he had been courting for awhile." He said, a sadness, and almost tiredness apparent in his voice.

"You had a mate? What happened to her? And why didn't you tell me this before?" She asked.

"I did, but she was murdered. By who, well... I have my suspicions. There's more. When she was killed, she was also pregnant with my child." He said, now bitterness was in his voice as the painful memories flooded his mind. He strained against his bonds, to no avail. Likewise, Deni did the same, but not as hard as he, that's when he noticed all the worry marks on her scales, and on the chains. The shackles had cut into some of her scales.

"Deni, stop. You've already hurt yourself trying to escape those. Don't worry, I'll get us out of this, I promise my love." He said.

Deni seemed to beam at this, her body language changing. That was then a new voice called to them.

"Well, well, well. What do we have here? Looks like my dear old brother has taken a new mate. Given up on avenging your old mate, have we?" His voice was deep, and eerily smooth. He slowly stepped into the cavern; his ghost white form seemed to almost glow in the fire light. Indeed, it was Sinra, and if it wasn't for him being slightly smaller, and white, he'd have been an exact twin to Nikoli.

"Sinra you bastard, what the hell is it with you. I told you to stay away from me. I knew it was you who killed Anya, and our unborn child." He said, his words dripping with hate.

"Can you prove it though? Of course you can't. Otherwise, you and father would have killed me by now. Nik, I hate you, more than anything dear brother. However, it wasn't I who killed your precious mate and unborn child. I know you find it hard to believe, but I'm not evil." He said, an odd smirk was on his face, mocking Nik.

Angered even further, Nik lunged against his bonds, which held him fast. Despite his strength, Nik couldn't break them. "YOU LYING COWARD!!!! YOU HONORLESS BASTARD!!!! I know you killed her, and I will kill you, for this, and for killing Anya. I swear I'll FUC----"

Nik was cut off as Sinra struck him hard with a fore claw, hard enough that it knocked Nik back against the wall.

"DON'T YOU DARE INPUNE MY HONOR! I should kill you right now for such offense." Growled Sinra, his fangs bared, and dripping with saliva, almost like it was venom. He leaned back and calmed himself down.

"I have my reasons for this. For I know you, Nik. I know you better than you know yourself. I regret having to do this, but I have no choice. This was the only way to get you to sit still long enough so I could talk to you. And to show you that I don't have ill intentions, I will release your new mate." He said, and he turned to her and asked, "And what is your name? My dear."

Deni laughed and if she could have, she would have spit in his face. "None of your damn business, you albino freak." She said.

Nik smirked at this, Deni had a lot of courage, to stand there, chained, and insult someone like his brother. To Sinra's credit though, he merely shrugged and turned back to Nik. "I see why you like this girl. She is just like you. But what do you think of my offer? I let her go, and you agree to talk with me?"

Nik pondered for a minute. He knew his brother was up to something, his brother was always up to something. But maybe this could be his one chance. Finally he said,

"Ok, brother. Release her, and take this damned muzzle off, and we'll talk."

Sinra laughed, and went to Deni and said, "Oh brother, I am not stupid. I know what you will do once I take that muzzle off. I designed it so you could talk, but in case you haven't noticed, you can't use your flame breath, or your power's, without doing serious damage to yourself." He said. He then made a motion with his right fore claw, and the other too dragons appeared. The red dragon, Nik recognized as the one that was at the village gate, and the other, Nik didn't recognized. They both went over to Deni, and took hold of her. She started to struggle, and Sinra stepped toward her.

"Don't fight my dear. They are only going to restrain you. They won't harm you, as long as you don't harm me. Now I'm going to release your bonds." He said, as he reached for the shackles around her mid-section. Nik inadvertently growled, to which Sinra laughed, and produced a key. He then proceeded to unlock her bonds. Once they were all off, she lunged at Sinra, but was immediately restrained by the two dragons. "Easy my dear. Remember, you don't hurt me, they don't hurt you." He said. He then turned back to Nik.

"Now. I have a proposition for you, brother. One that will benefit the both of us, and maybe bring some peace to your mind." He said.

Nik looked at him, trying to figure his brother out. This wasn't him at all. His brother had always hated him, ever since he mated with Anya. After Anya's death, they had fought, viciously. After that, Sinra had disappeared.

"Ok, Sinra. I'm listening." He said.

"Ah, so you're beginning to trust me now? Not like you brother." He said.

"I still don't trust you. Now just say what you have to say damn it. Then I'll decide." Said Nik.

"Very well then, I know this is unlike me brother. I know we've had our differences in the past, but for now. I want to put those aside, and we need to work together. I believe, I have found out who murdered Anya." He said.

Nikoli stiffened, and likewise, Deni did. Before he could answer Deni said, "Sinra, please, let me go to Nik. Let him go of his bonds. Please." She begged, quietly. Sinra regarded her, and then nodded. The two dragons released her, and he handed her the key. "I put faith in you." He said. She slowly walked past Sinra, and then hurried to Nik, where she began to remove his bonds. As she did so Nik looked at her, and nuzzled her. Deni nuzzled him back, and then Nik said to Sinra.

"Ok Sinra. Who is this dragon? And why do you need my help, or why have you come to me? I know you loved her as well. Why didn't you kill him yourself?" He asked.

"Well, this dragon is named Gustav. He's very powerful, and has some very powerful friends. If I were to have attempted killing him alone, then it would have been for nothing. But us together.... He won't stand a chance." Said Sinra.

"So why do you think me and you can do this? If he's as connected as you say." Said Nik.

"Do you remember when those 7 dragon's ganged up on us? Remember when we fought back to back? Trust me, we can handle this. Plus we have my comrade's here, as back up. We won't be alone." He said.

Nik thought for a moment, then looked at Deni. He didn't know what to do. On one hand, he had the chance to avenge the death of his mate, on the other, he had to worry about his new mate. "What do you think Deni?" He asked.

"No one should suffer the pain you have. Teach this bastard the new meaning of pain. I know what you're thinking Nik. I love you. I know how much it hurts just to think of what could happen to you, but I can't even begin to imagine what you felt when you found Anya. Kill this bastard." She nuzzled him as she said this.

Nik was shocked; he didn't expect this from her. Then again, he still didn't know her very well. He looked back to Sinra, and said, "Ok brother. We'll tag along. We'll get this Gustav. But I want you to guarantee Deni's safety." He said.

Sinra nodded. "I understand brother, but you know I can't do that." He said.

"Wait a minute. No way in hell am I staying behind. I'm going along, I want to make sure my mate makes it back in one piece." Protested Deni.

"The more, the bloody merrier. Be forewarned, there will be a lot of blood, a lot of pain, and the chance of us dying, is very, very likely." Said Sinra.

Sinra then turned to leave, his friends following. As they were walking away Sinra said, "The Red one is Kaga, and the Green one is Svenn. They'll be assisting us. We leave tomorrow." He then walked away, leaving Deni and Nikoli alone.

Nik looked at Deni, and she through her arms and wings around him, embracing him. Nik squeezed her back. "I'm so sorry about all this Deni, and I love you as well. You must be pretty mad at me." He said.

Deni looked at him and shook her head, "No. But I don't like your brother. He's very creepy. I think he's lying to you." She said.

Nik nuzzled her and said, "Oh, I'm sure he is, but its still worth finding out. But you don't know my brother like I do. I could read it in his eyes, he wasn't lying about this. He was in love with Anya. He wanted her so bad, and its true, he was very jealous of me. He may lie about him being the culprit, but I don't think he would make this story up. If he wanted to kill me, he would just admit killing Anya, and fight me until one of us died."

They both slowly got up, and started towards the exit of the cave. Both of them walking side by side, until they reached the entrance, where they saw his brother, and Kaga and Svenn. Nikoli looked at Sinra and said, "So where is this Gustav, and where will we meet tomorrow?" He asked.

"We meet here, and we head home." Said Sinra, and with that, he leaped into the air, and soared off into the clouds, his friends followed suit. Leaving Deni and Nikoli alone, again.

"I've never seen him act like this. I think that's why I believe him. He's being sincere, I know he is." Said Nik.

"Did they hit you on the head harder than you think? I mean, he did kidnap us? Remember?" She said.

"I know, but you see, if he had just approached me, I would have attacked him on sight. So I can't say as to I blame him for that." He said.

They fell silent, and remained like that for awhile, until they decided to go off hunting, where they caught some prey, and both fed until they were full. Then they returned to the waterfall that they had been to the night before. Once there, they both lay by the lake it fed into, and curled up together. Gently, and slowly, they both started caressing each other, then Nik looked at Deni and said, "If we keep this up, You're gonna get pregnant."

Deni shrugged, "If I'm not already. I mean, I was in heat. If I get pregnant, I get pregnant. I don't mind. I want to have your child." She said.

Nik looked at her, his eyes had grown glassy, as if he was fighting back tears. "I love you, Deni." He said.

"I love you too, Nikoli."

Nik slowly slid his tail along Deni's, and she likewise, wrapped her tail around his. He nuzzled her where her jaw met her throat, and gently nipped her there. She shuddered at the contact and began grinding her hips against his. To Nik's surprise, she was already wet, and it didn't take long for him to harden. He grinded his hard on against her, trapping it between their stomachs, before he slowly slid back, and gently caressed the tip of his cock, against the moist lips of her pussy.

"Please Nik, make love to me. Make me a child." She said.

Nik smiled at hearing those words, he had always wanted children, and now, this was his chance. But he still didn't want to risk Deni's safety. But before he got lost deep in thought, he quickly pushed those thoughts out of his mind, and focused on making love to his mate. Without saying a word, he gently pressed the tip of his cock into her pussy. Deni loosed a low moan as he pierced her, and her moan turned into a relieved sigh as he slowly pressed his entire length into her. She loved the feeling of having him hilted in her. She moaned again as he slowly pulled out, and pushed back in, his thrusts maddeningly long, and slow, but every torture filled second of it, was also deliciously pleasurable. She reached up and grabbed onto his broad shoulders with her fore claws, and wrapped her hind legs around his hips, and began thrusting back into him, matching his rhythm as he slowly sped up. She moaned with each deep thrust into her, he likewise gasped in return as she thrust back at him, squeezing his cock with her wet, silky-smooth walls. Minute's passed by, then an hour, and still they were fucking. They're stamina surprising them both as now, he thrusting with a medium pace, fast enough to pleasure them both, but not so fast that they ended too quickly. They continued on, thrusting, gasping, and moaning out each other's names until Deni started quickening her thrusts, signaling Nik to quicken his pace as well, and before long, Deni roared out his name and she was rocketed into the strongest orgasm she's had yet, her walls convulsing around Nik's cock as her juices soaked his hips and tail. Nik didn't last too long after, as he bellowed her name in turn, and his cock twitched, and bulged insider her, before he exploded inside her, wave after strong wave of his seed jetting into her, splattering her womb. The strength, of his seed shooting into her moist passage alone, and the volume of it surprised Deni, and threw her into another orgasm as the sensations overwhelmed her.

Minutes passed by as they both road out each other's orgasm, until finally, Deni's pussy loosened its grip on his cock, and he slowly slid out. Deni sighed, although she regretted him not being inside her, for she loved the feeling of having his rock hard cock stuffed deep into her, she did enjoy the feeling of the mass volume of cum he had shot into her. She sighed, and twitched a little as it began to leak out, a soft giggle escaping from her lips as it did so. Nik in turn, wrapped her up in his arms and wings and held her.

"I love you Deni." He said.

Deni looked up at him, and then pressed her lips against his, her tongue snaking out of her mouth, and into his, as he opened his jaws upon feeling her's part as well, and their tongue's met, wrapping around each other, caressing each other. Their first truly draconic kiss.

"I love you too, Nik." She said, once they parted. Then she leaned back against him, and they both looked up at the sky, and watched as the sun set. Not too long after, they both fell asleep under the stars of the night sky, the moon, silently casting its silvery rays upon them, almost as if it was guarding the two lovers.
