A Dragon's Protection
Follow up to "The Dragon's Plaything". Takes place immediately following the events of the last story. After fending off (ok, eating) the bandits that threatened Richard, Xarn insists on staying with him to offer his protection in case more should show up. As night falls, and despite the obvious size difference, things take a turn for the romantic! I used a vore tag, even though the vore that takes place is mentioned in the past tense, and there isn't any actual description of said vore, other than mentioning it happened.
After he had dealt with my bandit intruders, Xarn refused to leave. The red dragon was insistent on staying in case more bandits showed up so he could protect me. It wasn’t like I could force him to leave, but if I was being honest, I was actually happy to have him there with me anyway. I was originally concerned that somebody might have see him, but I decided in the end it didn’t really matter. If people saw a dragon hanging around my property, I definitely wasn’t going to have to worry about intruders ever again! I decided to forgo my morning walk, since the path through the woods might have been a little narrow for Xarn to accompany me on. Instead I grabbed a book, and sat on the bench out front while Xarn curled up in my yard and took a nap, basking in the morning sun. I never realized dragon’s could be such furious snorers, and wondered how I had ever gotten any sleep the night he had stayed in my bed. Perhaps in his smaller size they hadn’t been quite as thunderous as the ones I was hearing now! It made concentrating on my reading difficult at first, but I eventually got used to them.
A few hours later, the thundering snores suddenly ceased, and Xarn lifted his head groggily, peering around and looking confused at where he found himself. He turned his head to look at me, then smiled upon remembering where he was. With a massive yawn and a leisurely stretch, he climbed to his feet and came over to me.
“How was your nap?” I asked with a chuckle.
“Quite refreshing Richard, thank you! I trust there were no further signs of bandits while I rested?” he asked.
“There were a couple more but I fought them off, I didn’t want to disturb your nap. You wouldn’t have heard them over the sound of your snoring anyway!” I said jokingly.
“Very funny! Those earlier bandits served as a decent snack, but now I’m off to hunt for a proper meal. I will return shortly!” Xarn told me.
“As much as I enjoy your company, if you have things you need to do, I highly doubt those bandits are coming back! Don’t feel you have to stay here and protect me, though I do appreciate your concern for me” I said with a smile.
“It is no trouble at all, I enjoy your company very much as well! I have been living a solitary existence for so long, it’s a pleasure to finally have somebody to spend time with” Xarn told me, and smiled back at me.
”I’m flattered you feel that way about me. Well, good hunting, I guess I will see you later then!” I said. Xarn nodded, and turned back towards the yard. The ground shook slightly as he bounded away from me, then spread his wings as he leapt into the sky. The pages in my book fluttered from the gust he kicked up as he took off. I watched as he climbed higher into the sky, then gracefully banked to fly over the woods. I returned my attention back to my book, and awaited his return.
Sometime later I heard a distant roar, quite unmistakably similar to the one I had heard from Xarn when he had swooped in on the bandits that had menaced me earlier. I stood up and looked with concern in the direction I thought I had heard the roar coming from, but it didn’t repeat. Squinting my eyes, I thought I could see a hint of smoke rising in the distance from the trees. I sat back down, but was starting to worry for Xarn’s safety. I sat with my book closed in my lap, and continued watching in the direction where a plume of smoke was now most definitely rising from the forest in the distance. I was just about to go saddle up a horse and ride in the direction I saw the smoke, when I saw Xarn rise up from the trees near the plume of smoke, and fly back in my direction. I sighed with relief to see that he was safe, and anxiously waited for him to return to find out what had happened. Eventually he arrived, gliding in for a soft landing nearby, and made his way over to me.
“Aaah, now that was a lovely meal! Not quite on par with the ones you prepared for me during my last visit, but still wonderful!” Xarn exclaimed as he sat down in front of me, and curled his tail around his feet. I looked up at him with a skeptical expression on my face. I couldn’t help but notice a large splotch of blood on the side of his muzzle, and what appeared to be a piece of cloth dangling from the side of his jaws.
“You ah, have a little something on the side of your muzzle” I said, and ran my finger along the side of my mouth to indicate where.
“I do?” Xarn replied, his tongue snaked out to lick the side of his muzzle, then he discovered the piece of cloth that appeared to have been hooked on one of his teeth, and gave me an embarrassed grin.
“So, what was all that roaring and smoke about over there anyway?” I asked, gesturing towards the forest, and raising my eyebrows at him questioningly. Xarn laughed nervously at my question, raising his forearm to rub his hand anxiously along his slender neck. “Well? I’m waiting?” I said impatiently, but couldn’t help but grin a little at Xarn’s apparent embarrassment.
“Ok, you caught me! I MIGHT have stumbled across the bandit’s camp during my hunting” Xarn told me sheepishly.
“Aaaand?” I asked.
“Well, I may have eaten them all… but they had it coming for threatening your safety! The smoke was from when I burned one of them as he tried to escape into the trees, he might have gotten away otherwise! I made sure the fire didn’t spread though, I wouldn’t want to start a forest fire that threatened your home here! At least now you can rest assured your bandit problem is taken care of!” Xarn said proudly, and puffed his chest out as he grinned down at me. I glanced down at his noticeably expanded belly, and could see faint signs of squirming beneath the yellow scales. I sighed quietly as I shook my head and put my hand over my face.
“How many of them were there?” I asked out of morbid curiosity.
“Seven by my quick initial count, but once I started eating them, I wasn’t really keeping track anymore. You aren’t mad at me are you?” Xarn asked worriedly. I sighed heavily.
“I mean, the thought of you eating people doesn’t exactly thrill me, but I know you did it with my best interests at heart. How often do you eat people anyway? I’d really prefer it if you don’t go around eating my neighbors!” I said.
“Very rarely, I assure you! Generally it’s only intruders in my lair. I don’t deliberately hunt humans, it gets them all riled up when I eat one of them, and then I have an angry pitchfork wielding mob to deal with!” Xarn dramatically rolled his eyes at the thought. “I prefer to be left alone! Though you are definitely the exception to that rule, I didn’t realize how much I liked having somebody to care about until I met you” Xarn said, lowering his massive head and carefully resting it on my lap. I couldn’t help but laugh, and gently scratched the scales on top of his muzzle, causing him to sigh contentedly. He may have been a ruthless killing machine, but he was MY ruthless killing machine.
“All right then, I guess if you can manage to restrain yourself to just eating criminals, then I suppose it isn’t a huge deal” I reluctantly said, as I continued stroking the soft scales of his muzzle. As much as I loved his head in my lap, my legs were rapidly falling asleep from the weight, and I was secretly thankful when he raised his head again.
“I knew you would see it my way!” Xarn said happily and grinned. “I’m going to go lay down again, a full stomach always makes me sleepy!” he exclaimed as he headed back out to the yard.
“I feel like all you do is eat and sleep!” I called after him.
“Don’t forget sex! Eat, sleep, and sex! I live a charmed life I suppose!” Xarn called back to me over his shoulder and laughed. I couldn’t help but also laugh, and shook my head as I watched him curl up again in the yard. Soon his thunderous snores started up again, and I retreated inside for some quiet.
As the sun began to set, I came back out to bring the horses in. Xarn was still passed out in the yard, but his snoring seemed to have quieted, and he was sprawled out on his back. The horses had been extremely wary of Xarn, but eventually had wandered closer during the day, possibly out of curiosity, or maybe because they recognized his scent from before when he had been smaller and hadn’t caused them any harm. After taking care of the horses, I approached Xarn, and I couldn’t help but chuckle. His head was thrown back, his jaws wide open, and his long forked tongue was flopped out across the ground.
“Xarn? Wakey wakey!” I called to him from a safe distance. With a loud snort, Xarn’s body jerked, and he lifted his head. He blinked sleepily, as he reeled his tongue back into his mouth, then licked his muzzle. He slowly rolled over onto his belly, and yawned widely. The dragon glanced around, then up at the sky, looking almost startled to see the time of day.
“Goodness, I didn’t expect to sleep so long! Your lawn is quite comfortable” Xarn said with a laugh.
“I’m glad you like it” I said with a grin. “I’m going to head in for some dinner, then I’m going to turn in for the night. I just wanted to wish you good night before I did” A look of disappointment crossed the dragon’s face.
“So soon? I had hoped maybe we could spend some more time together! What I wouldn’t give for another one of those shrinking potions right now!” Xarn exclaimed with a sigh. I came over to him, and he lowered his head to me, and gave my face a lick. I sputtered and chuckled as I wiped his thick saliva from my face. He leaned his head against my chest and I stroked the side of his muzzle.
“How’s this, after dinner I’ll come back and sit with you for a while before bed? Would you like that?” I offered. Xarn smiled and nodded.
“I would like that very much. Enjoy your dinner, I will be eagerly awaiting your return!” Xarn said, crossing his forelegs and setting his head down on them. His golden eyes followed me as I headed inside.
After dinner, I decided to change into my robe before going back outside. I did my best to clean it after Xarn’s last visit, but it still had the ghost of a giant semen stain on it. It was my favorite robe though, so I hung onto it anyway. The rising half moon cast a soft glow over the yard as I came outside. It illuminated Xarn lounging on his side. His head was bent down to his groin, and he was taking long slow licks across his genital slit and asshole. I paused to watch for a moment, as he dipped his tongue briefly into his genital slit, before withdrawing it again. He moved his muzzle closer to his asshole, and I couldn’t help but shiver slightly as I watched him slide his tongue into it. The dragon closed his eyes and began to breathe heavily as he fed more and more of his tongue into himself. His cock began to slide from its slit as he started gently thrusting his tongue in and out of himself. My cock began to grow hard as I watched. Xarn opened his eyes again, then started in surprise as he noticed me watching. He quickly slid his tongue from himself with a noisy slurp, and licked his muzzle briefly.
“Oh, Richard! I was just, um, cleaning myself while I waited for you to return!” Xarn said with a nervous laugh.
“I see!” I said as I walked up to stand by his side. “I have to wonder, seeing what you’re capable of doing to yourself with your own tongue, why would you have ever needed me to get you off when you caught me in your lair? If I could do what you can, I don’t think I would ever leave the house!” I said with a laugh.
“I will confess, I am perfectly capable of pleasuring myself with my own mouth, but believe it or not, it does get old. To have someone else touching your most intimate areas, it’s just so much more pleasurable and exciting than doing it yourself!” Xarn explained to me. “I have to admit, I was just now thinking of the night I spent with you here. I will never forget it, I have never felt as close with anybody as I did with you that night.”
“Thank you Xarn, it was probably the most incredible night of my life as well” I told him. I reached over and ran my hand along his massive slick cock, it twitched slightly at my touch. “I’m wishing you had one another of those shrinking potions right now as well!” I said with a chuckle. Xarn grinned at me, then reached over and scooped me up in his hand, catching me off guard. He rolled onto his back, and cradled me in front of his muzzle. Reaching up with his other hand, he used a clawed finger to undo the belt of my robe, causing it to fall open. The dragon sighed with annoyance at seeing my undershorts.
“You humans and your undergarments!” he said with annoyance, carefully hooking a claw into the waist of my undershorts, and tearing them away.
“Hey! You could have just asked me to take them off! Ugh, you are a scourge on my supply of undershorts!” I said with consternation. Xarn chuckled at my scolding.
“Then stop wearing them around me, and you won't have to worry about me destroying them!” Xarn said teasingly. Tossing my shredded undershorts to the side, he leaned forward and took a long slow lick up my entire body, his warm soft tongue pushing my body firmly against his fingers. I writhed with pleasure at the feeling of that giant tongue slithering across my body as he continued to lick me. Without the fear of being eaten, it was a much more enjoyable experience. In no time at all, I was completely covered in his thick saliva.
“Wait, wait, hold on a sec” I said to Xarn, pushing at his tongue as it slid up my body again. Xarn paused in his licking, and tilted his head as he looked at me questioningly. “Now that you’ve got me drenched in your saliva, I just got an idea of something I’d like to try” I said with a grin.
”Oh? What did you have in mind?” Xarn asked with interest, a slow grin forming on his muzzle.
“Put me down on your stomach” I requested, and Xarn quickly complied, and placed me down by his cock. He probably thought I was going to masturbate him again with my body, but I had something else in mind. I removed my robe completely, and tossed it off to the side as I walked past his cock, running my hand along it as I passed, then stopped at his asshole. I sat down by it, and turned to face Xarn’s head. The dragon gave me a curious look, wondering just what I was up to as I gave him a mischievous grin. I put my feet together, and gently pressed my toes against his scaly asshole. It quivered against my feet, and Xarn huffed loudly as my feet began to sink into it. His asshole clenched against my calves tightly as I pushed my feet further in. The heat of his slick inner walls was intense. I propped myself up with my hands as I sank further in, I was now in up to my knees. I was caught off guard when with a spasming clench, I was suddenly pulled in beyond my waist. I managed to stop myself from being completely pulled in, and found myself buried up to just below my armpits. His asshole clutched greedily at my body, but I managed to brace myself with my arms to keep from being completely dragged in. Xarn’s tongue dangled from the side of his mouth, and he panted with pleasure at the feeling of my body inside him.
“Oh Richard, you are so devious!” Xarn said with a shaky laugh.
Thank you, now please relax a little bit before you pull me in entirely!” I told him.
”Sorry, I’ll do my best!” Xarn panted, and his asshole’s grip on me loosened slightly. Using my arms to support myself, I began to thrust my body into him, using my legs to massage his inner walls as I did. In almost no time, the dragon’s cock began to flex in front of me. My arms were starting to get tired, and my energy was waning, but seeing that Xarn was close, I increased my efforts. I gritted my teeth as I picked up the pace, and after a half a dozen more thrusts, his cock twitched violently, and erupted, geysering semen over his belly. Xarn’s ass spasmed and clenched tightly, almost painfully around me as he came, and I stopped thrusting, and braced myself firmly to keep from getting pulled inside of him. I listened to Xarn’s loud pleasured moans as he came on himself. Eventually, his semen slowed to a trickle, and his cock stopped twitching. I sighed with relief as his asshole loosened its tight grip on my chest, it had been starting to get hard to breathe. Xarn panted heavily, his eyes closed, then he opened them and smiled down at me.
“Very creative of you Richard, you never fail to disappoint!!” Xarn said.
“Thank you Xarn, now if you don’t mind, I think I might need some help getting out of here…” I said with a laugh. Xarn chuckled, and leaned forward, reaching his hand down to me, and extending a finger towards me. I grabbed onto his finger, and he slowly lifted me from his tightly clenching asshole. I was glad to be free from its clutches.
”Keep holding on!” Xarn said, as he continued to raise me towards his head, and his jaws yawned open.
“Whoa, wait, what are you doing?” I cried out in fear. Xarn closed his jaws and rolled his eyes at me as he snorted in amusement.
“I’m just going to clean you off, plus now there’s something I would like to try! I promise not to eat you! Don’t you trust me?” Xarn asked. I dangled from his finger in front of his head as he waited for my answer. I thought about it for a second, then nodded. “Good! I’m going to put you in my mouth, but don’t panic! Do me a favor and grab onto my teeth. I would never eat you, but I don’t want any accidents either…” Xarn said. I felt a bit of unease at that last remark, but I was curious to see what he had in store for me. His jaws yawned open again, and he carefully placed me in the front of his jaws. His tongue was bunched up at the back his throat. I quickly turned and grabbed on to two of his teeth as he partially closed his mouth, then I anxiously waited to see what he would do next. I didn’t have to wait long as his tongue quickly slithered across me and coiled around my body, like a snake capturing its prey. The forked tips brushed against my face, and one of the tips slid against my lips. I parted them, and the large tip eagerly slid into my mouth. The other tip gently rubbed against my cheek as I suckled on the other one. The rest of his tongue tightly squeezed and massaged my entire body. My cock was painfully hard where it was pinned against my body by his soft tongue. His tongue squeezed and slid against my body, the forked tip of his tongue in my mouth writhed against mine. The whole body pleasure was overwhelming, and I came quickly, my load gushing over his tongue. Xarn slid the tip of his tongue from my mouth, giving my cheek one last gentle stroke before the rest of his tongue began to uncoil from my body. It lingered briefly on my groin as it licked the mess from my belly. Xarn opened his mouth wider, and offered his finger to me again. I grabbed on to it and he lifted me out, then placed me on his chest. The cool night air on the saliva that drenched my body caused me to shiver. The dragon felt my shivering, and gently put his hand over me. Between the warmth of his hand, and the soft scales of his chest, I sighed contentedly.
“See? I told you I wouldn’t eat you!” Xarn said, his chest vibrated beneath me as he chuckled.
“I didn’t think you would. At least not on purpose anyway!” I replied.
”Thank you for trusting me. Also…I want to apologize…for threatening to eat you when we first met. I feel badly about the distress I caused you” Xarn said to me. I couldn’t help but laugh.
“That’s ok Xarn, I forgive you. To be fair, I was there to try to steal your gold, so I should be the one apologizing, and I do apologize! If anybody deserved to be eaten, it was me!” I said. His chest rumbled with laughter beneath me.
“There is no need to apologize. Honestly, it’s more gold than I would ever need anyway. It’s just our nature to collect it” Xarn said.
“Sort of like crows with shiny objects?” I said playfully.
“Hey! I am not some filthy bird! I am a majestic dragon!” Xarn said with a laugh. “I’m sure no crow could do what I just did for you, could it?”
“That’s for sure!” I agreed. “So, how long do you think until the next potion will be ready?” I asked.
“Not soon enough!” Xarn said with a sigh, then began to laugh. I couldn’t help but join him. Our laughter died down, then we simply laid together quietly, looking at the stars above.
