Fates of the Unicorns - Chapter 11 - Drake Training

SPOILER WARNING : If you are new to the story, this chapter contains plot and character development spoilers for the over all story. This is an onging story, and this chapter assumes you know the story and characters.

Chakal did not get much sleep that night. She counted her woes to herself. She was separated from the other unicorns, even if they were still nearby in the cave above her. The stone was cold and hard. But she should be used to that by now she thought. But having a giant drake watching you intently was the worst. It was hard to sleep with those eyes watching, and with the smell of the drake all over her from where he had her in his mouth last evening. That thought sent shivers down her spine as it did every time she thought of it.

The only thing keeping him from eating her is that her dragon Master had claimed her in front of it. She almost let out a giggle.. not in front of it.. while she was in it's mouth! But she was far too wary of the large predator to trust in it's training to keep it from making a quick meal of her. So she slept in fits and starts, always waking to see those gleaming eyes. Did it ever sleep, or did it wake whenever she stirred? She dozed off again, arms crossed over her chest, legs pulled up and her tail of course, tight between her legs.

Chakal woke with a scream as something touched her shoulder, sure it was the drake getting ready to eat her, but she looked up to see a canine face looking down at her.

"Sorry... I'd have let you sleep but our dragon Masters have given their orders and it's no too wise to delay in carrying them out" said the dog who was now standing a few steps back from her.

She rubbed her eyes and slowly stood, still covering herself as she took in the new arrival. He was a great dane she thought, although she had never seen one in person before. And it was certainly a he as the dog wore no clothes other than the slave collar around his neck. She made a point to look him in the eyes, trying not to look him over in her curiosity at meeting a new race for the first time, especially since he was as naked as she was.

"Pleased to meet you" she managed, one arm over her breasts, the other covering her now very naked feeling crotch.

The dog grinned and put out a hand, "I'm Josh, and I've never met a unicorn before." He stood for a few moments with his hand out, watching Chakal as she shifted under his gaze. "You need to get used to not wearing clothes and being stared and looked at. As slaves, we don't wear anything unless it's needed, or amuses our Masters. Be grateful you are not in a harem outfit" he said. He wasn't in the habit of checking out other slaves, having been one lone enough to get used to seeing naked furries everywhere. But he had to admit it was hard to keep his eyes off of the first unicorn mare he had been up close with. He forced himself to look her in the eyes. Messing around with another dragons slave was playing with fire.

Thinking about that for a moment she nodded, and slowly reached out a hand to shake the dogs, her other arm dropping to her side. "I guess you're right. I would think after all these months I would be used to it.. but I haven't seen another, umm, male since I got here. Other than the dragon."

Josh tsked at her, "Other than your Master you mean. Let him hear you fail to speak of him with the proper respect and you might end up in a harem outfit yet. Say it again..."

She blinked at the command and said stiffly, "Other than my Master."

Josh sighed and said, "Sorry.. but trust me. You will be much better off if you can avoid making mistakes like that. If you can keep on your Master's good side you are going to do well here. Until you prove yourself you might get demoted at any time. That would be bad. For me too as it would reflect on my training."

Chakal nodded that she understood, then said, "Training?"

Josh looked at the drake who was flicking his eyes from one of them to the other as each spoke or moved. "Yes, taking care of your Masters drake. I'm here to teach you the basics. I take care of my Mistresses drake and am on loan to your Master for today. So lets get started with the basics first, shall we?"

Chakal relaxed a bit. Learning about animals was something she liked and was familiar. Being a dragon's slave was far too strange to forget where she was and imagine she was back at the farm being tutored, but it was far better than what she had been doing since her capture. "Ok. Will the dr... my Master be here to keep him under control?" she asked, remembering to use his correct title this time.

"No need for that. Not if you do your job right" said Josh with a shake of his head. "You have been introduced, and he knows me so as long as we don't do anything stupid we will be fine. First off, the stupid. Don't try and ride him. You can climb on him, and will have to if you are to reach all of him. But don't try and strap yourself in or take off with him. That will certainly end up with you being eaten. That's how your Master lost his last keeper" warned the dog with a grave expression.

Chakal cringed and nodded, "He told me. Does that mean..." she started but was interrupted.

"Your Master told you" said Josh with emphasis on the word Master.

"Yes, yes.. thank you. My Master told me" repeated Chakal, feeling herself fall into the familiar teacher and student role. She was slightly discomforted with how similar that was to the relationship, if you could call it that, with her Master as his slave. Being around dragons made one start thinking of everything in terms of Dominance and submission she realised.

"Second" said Josh, ignoring her aborted question. "Don't ever use the language your Master uses to command his drake. You can talk to him, use hand gestures and touches, but the command words they are trained to obey are taught to them by dragons only, and only to be used by them."

Chakal made sure to remember that, "Got it.. don't use any of those commands. Will he eat me if I do?"

Josh shrugged, "Probably not. But it won't like being given commands by anyone other than his Master and would probably knock you back on your ass. But the real danger is what your Master will do to you. Don't think you could try commanding him in secret either. Your Master will notice if his drake is upset with you." Josh then made a show of looking around the otherwise empty ledge they stood on, "Never assume you are not being watched either. I've been punished more than once for things I did when I was sure nobody else was watching." He rubbed unconsciously at his rump with one hand with an unhappy look.

She looked around suspiciously and nodded, "I see..."

"Those are pretty much the only two really dangerous mistakes you can make. Other than obvious things like don't poke him in the eye or try and run him through with your horn" he said with a small smile.

Chakal bit her lip as she looked up at her horn tip, the sharp point long gone.

"Oh, sorry... I didn't mean to bring up the, erm..." he faltered.

Chakal let out a long sigh, then smiled as she finished his sentence for the now uncomfortable dane, "The point? It's ok. Like you reminded me earlier, there are things I need to get used to, and it doesn't hurt or anything but yeah... it's a cruel reminder of what I have become."

The dog looked sadly at her and nodded, "For me as well. But... you learn not to dwell on it in time. Especially if you are lucky to have a good owner or be given a task you can enjoy."

Chakal asked, "Is my Master a good owner?"

Josh frowned, "Now there is a tricky question. Some dragons are sensitive about any criticism at all and it's not wise to say anything but good things about them. Your Master... I don't think he would mind an honest appraisal, as long as one was respectful."

"I don't want to get you in trouble" said Chakal with a worried glance around.

"I've been here long enough that any trouble I get into will be my own damn fault, but thanks. Your Master is a wealthy dragon and well respected among his peers so his property is usually left alone. But be very carefully when dealing with slaves of other dragons. Our owners play lots of political games with each other, and we are the pawns. If another slave ever asks you to do something or wants information about your Master, no matter how innocent sounding, say no and tell your Master about it."

"Even you?" asked Chakal.

"Well obviously not me. I'm teaching you, not asking you to spy on him for my Mistress. I am in your Masters lair with permission. But you do need to be carefully if you meet anyone outside his lair. Anyways... as for his treatment of you... there are better owners to have, but also worse ones." Josh shrugged, "If you can say anyone who thinks owning other people is better than another."

"Well, that's better than nothing I suppose. Sorry. Please continue?" she said with a smile.

"Right. Now, just before the exit to the ledge is a storage area. We will fetch a few things" said Josh as he brought her to the mentioned room. "Grab one of those jars.. and one of those too. A brush, this wiper, rags, the grooming tool set."

Chakal grabbed all the various things, struggling a bit to get them all but finally managing and following Josh back out to the drake. She steeled herself and walked up to the great beast as Josh beckoned her closer, setting the pile down where indicated.

"A drake's scales need care to be at their peak. They range from small like next to their eyes, to large like these along his flank. Anything striking a drake from the front will simply slide off his scales since they overlap in that direction. Coming from behind is more of a problem as things can get under a scale. So when a drake fights those scales are pressed down TIGHT. This can cause them to scratch and bind, so the first thing you need to do is make sure they are oiled. The black oil there, that's the stuff. Now look close at the scales here..."

Chakal leaned in close, looking at the largest scales about the size of her hand. It was a shiny blue with a very thin gleaming dark band around the edge. "Ok.. what am I looking for?"

Josh said, "Around the edge. That dark spot is the oil. If you see any areas that are missing it, or worse, scratched up, you need to brush oil on. Let it soak, then wipe the excess off with rags. If it did get scratched, or any other wear is noticed, you can sand out any major damage before applying the polish and then a protective coat that also shines them up nicely."

Chakal took it all in and watched the dog demonstrate, then made her try. And try again. He as nice enough she thought, and pleasant.. but he was making darn sure she learned every detail, making her go over and over a lesson until she could do it all blind. Climbing onto the beast was scary, especially when he shifted under her. Josh told her to get down whenever he did to make him learn that the nice grooming stops when he doesn't stay still. It was several hours before he was satisfied she knew what she was doing. "I am going to be so sore tonight. I wish I had a bed or something to sleep on."

"Right. That's something else I can show you. Now, these beasties seem pretty nasty, but you will see a very different side of them. They respect their owners. They will fly into battle and risk death for them. But you can't say that really LIKE them. They obey because their social instincts tell them too." He walked closer to the drake and motioned Chakal to follow and continues his lecture as she came closer. "He will consider you, well, his pet. Like part of his horde over there. You will groom him, keep him company."

The unicorn nodded, now much more comfortable with being near the drake. Especially after she started to groom him he spent less time staring at her and more time relaxed and letting her work on him.

"You may find it hard to imagine, but he will like you. Even care for you. Almost as if you were some strange hatchling he is caring for. The drake.. that is your bed."

"You mean I am supposed to sleep on that thing?" she said with a slightly horrified voice. She was getting used to him sure, but sleeping on it?

"Oh yes. I do it with mine. Especially when it's cold and wet. It's actually rather nice. They are warm and under a wing is out of the wind and rain" he said with a smile.

She couldn't imagine sleeping on it, let alone under it. But she supposed she had better learn or she would be in for a lot of long, cold nights. "Well, how long before I try?" She hoped it would take the drake a good long time to develop it's strange fixation on her.

"You should try it tonight. It will help teach him that you are his new pet. I mean caretaker" he said and looked around. "Once you get your green you can go get washed up and even eat something decent for a change."

At this she perked up, "Decent? Like, better than stale hay?"

He made a face, "Fresh hay doesn't sound very good to me but I am not a horse either. I don't know exactly what they feed you equines but the ones I have talked to seem pretty happy with whatever it is, so I'm sure it will be a welcome change for you. Now.. let me tell you about the collars."

She reached up and touched hers. She was so used to it by now she hardly ever noticed the metal thing.

Josh pointed to his, "First is each slave has an ownership mark and a slave number. But more important is the jewels. See mine?"

Chakal nodded, "It's a green one. I have seen red ones on other collars."

"I don't doubt it. A green gem means you are slave with duties that require you to move about your Masters lair. If there is an emergency with your Master's drake you need to run for help without being stopped by anyone. You also need to get supplies when needed without having to wait for someone to notice. That means you can go get your own food, or even wash up when you need it."

Chakal looked at the various oil and polish stains in her fur and nodded, "After a few days of this I'd be unable to move I would be so caked with this stuff."

"Right. Now the red ones, those mean it's a slave guard. It's generally a good idea to obey them if they give you an order. Get used to being pushed around by them. A park of their job I suppose. Once you have a green gem you will get hassled a lot less. As long as they don't actually interfere with your job, your best bet is to do as they say and ignore any prodding or provoking. There are other colours too but nothing you need to worry about. If you need help you can grab any slave without a gem and they should follow." He looked out over the ledge and thought before continuing, "If they refuse... you can get a guard to make them obey. But... it will give the guard a chance to punish them, and I don't like to be the cause of that. It doesn't happen very often but I just find another if the need isn't urgent."

Chakal nodded, "I wouldn't want to do that either. That.. The.. My Master can be pretty cruel to those that displease him.

"In a few days I will give my recommendation on your performance. If your Master likes what he hears, you will be promoted, and then I'd be happy to show you around.

Chakal smiled.. was he hitting on her or just being friendly? She wasn't sure how she felt about either so she said, "What next? Tell me more."

...

Time passed quickly for Chakal as she listened to and watched Josh demonstrate how to care for the big drake. Before she knew it it was night time and Josh had to leave. Apparently there was a curfew he was not willing to risk breaking. After saying goodbye she turned to look out at the dragon city spread below her.

Chakal shivered as the sun sank under the rim of the dragon's capital. It got cold here at night and she always slept some place warm. She thought back and smiled at the times she did sleep with an animal. Sometimes a sick horse to keep them company, sometimes small pets curled up warmly with her in bed. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad with the drake. He didn't seem inclined to eat her at least. "You wouldn't roll over in your sleep and crush me, would you big guy?" she said to the drake who simply looked back at her with his slitted eyes.

She took a slow walk around him, looking for a suitable spot. Next to his head and those teeth? No way. The dog said under a wing.. so maybe at his side? She moved closer and stroked along the drake's flank, getting a rumble in return. It didn't sound like an angry noise to her.

Carefully she edged up to him and slowly sat down, leaning her back against his side. His great head had turned to watch her, then settled down on the stone, eyes still on her but half lidded now in an expression she began to recognise as relaxed. She let her own eyes close, in part because she was tired, but also to show the drake she was not afraid of him. Eyes closed she drifted off to sleep.

Pain woke her. She groaned, her ass sore from sitting on the cold stone and she shivered uncomfortably. She stretched slowly, wincing at the stuff muscles and then froze as the drake's head lifted high into the air, watching her. Then she eeped as the drake's body shifted behind her, rolling slowly onto it's side away from her. If it had rolled in her direction she would have been squashed! She watched as it got comfortable again, laying on it's side and curled up like a cat, but with one wing lifted.

She knew an invitation when she saw one and peered under the wing. The drake was lying on his left side, his left leg tucked up against his belly and above, his right hind-leg stretched out to make a sort of bed. "I guess you want me there, do you?" she said, unsure if she wanted to climb in. But a large nose pushed at her side and she moved, "Ok, ok.. I'm going."

Trying not to step directly on a bone or anything tender she made her way up onto the drake's large thigh. She needn't have worried, the leg was well muscled and the drake didn't twitch as she settled down between the drake's thigh and underbelly. The drake's scales were flexible on this part of his body, and were actually rather comfortable. And very warm she realised. Another eep escaped her as the wing slowly lowered like a tent over her. It was quite dark but her eyes adjusted to the feeble light that made it through the drake's wing membrane. Soon it was toasty warm and she sighed in pleasure, curling up.

That was not there a minute ago she thought as she eyed a slit opening up beside her. That's the opening to his sheath! She had realised snuggling up here put her close to the drake's privates but had not thought anything of it any more than when sleeping with other animals. She watched with apprehension as a black cock-tip slid from the drakes sheath and began to swell. There was not a lot of room here, and she was not about to try to force her way out so she just sat and watched it grow.

Her fascination with animals probably saved her life again she thought. How many unicorns could sit face to face with a cock the size of their arm as it swelled over them. Make that the size of my leg. She did squirm as it slid across her lap and firmed. Soon it was a good four feet long and heavy. And prehensile she added to her mental notes as it actually seemed to curve against her in a weird hug. Thankfully it didn't have any terrible spines or barbs. It was actually quite smooth and soft. Maybe getting it stuck in a female would be dangerous. Did they mate in the air and need to be able to do a quick release?

She waited for the drake to make the next move, but it seemed content with just 'hugging' her weirdly. After a while she yawned and figured if the drake wanted something, he would let her know. Otherwise, she was going to go to sleep. She shifted a bit which elicited a rumble, but once she stopped he quieted down. At least it's warm and softer than stone in here she thought, and slept.

Pain did not greet her this time as she slowly rose from the depths of sleep. She mrrrrmed in pleasure at being so comfortable for once. Warm, blankets over her, a pillow to snuggle with and rest her head on. She opened her eyes as she remembered where she was. The blanket was a drakes wing. And the pillow was... his cock. She glanced down and realised her head was resting on it's large head, and she was hugging it with her body, one leg pressed to it's soft warmth.

"Oh my..." she said softly and blushed deeply even though nobody could see her. The sun lit the drake's wing membrane and filtered through to light the scene. What now she wondered? First she started to move her leg away from the drake's cock but froze as she felt more than heard a harsh growl. Well, he didn't like that. She pressed her leg back down and the growl turned into a rumble of pleasure.

Stuck to a drake's cock, that sure is a new one. She gripped the cock tight in reflex as the drake gave a single lurching thrust of his hips, then rumbled even louder. She got the hint and gave his cock a firm hug. That settled him down. Did this beast want her to get him off somehow? She tried once more to extract herself but was once more growled at, and the cock actually pressed her back down, pinning her.

Erk.. even it's penis is stronger than I am! She decided to get it over with and hugged it again, working her other leg under it so she could cross her legs around the thick member. It liked that she noted. Liked it a lot. She wrapped her arms around it as well, now flat on her back with the cock above her and began to squeeze her legs in a slow massage. She grasped her elbows with her hands to hug the upper part of it's shaft tight and moved them up and down, jerking it off as best she could.

Rumbles and soft hisses told her she was doing it right, and she nuzzled at the tip, rewarded with more pleasured sounds from the drake. He better not crush me by accident she thought as she worked the large member. This was by far the strangest thing she had ever done, including when she had to extract semen samples from various domesticated animals back on the farm.

As she used her soft nose to nuzzle at the tip he cock gave a single throb of pleasure, the tip jerking up against her nose and leaving it covered wit a thick coating of drake seed. She paused at her stroking as she dealt with a sudden mouthful of what felt like thick honey, gulping it down quickly so she wouldn't suffocate, trying to rub it off on the cock in front of her. That didn't work at all, the rubbing just getting another muzzle full of the sticky stuff. She coughed and swallowed again, gasping to catch her breath before returning to her stroking and squeezing.

I'm going to drown in drake cum she thought as she continued to work the cock. Being a unicorn had it's advantages, and great stamina was one that served her well now as the minutes passed. Every so often she was greeted with another mouthful of cum which she swallowed rather than spit out. Why did she do that? After thinking about it she decided that against her better judgement, she liked the taste! After months of tasteless dry hay, something sweet and warm and reminding her of honey was actually making HER stomach rumble.

Just as she was getting a grip on this strange new craving of hers, the drake cock surged in her arms and she was blasted by a thick glob of the honey-like cum. She sputtered and soon her entire face was coated and dripping with the stuff, her breasts warm as it oozed down over top of them. She gulped until she could take in deep breaths and wiped at her eyes with a hand until she could see once more. Surprisingly there was not a whole lot of it. Either this drake was an under performer or they were potent enough to not need a whole lot.

She licked her lips clean and was wondering how to get out when the wing lifted. Once back on her feet she made her way to get some rags to clean up with. She stoked a cum-covered breast with a finger and sucked on it as she walked and then stopped in surprise at what she was doing. She looked around, knowing it was silly but still embarrassed at the unconscious finger-sucking. Well.. it's not like she was eating meat or drinking blood. Unicorns ate cheese and drank milk from cows, so this isn't really all THAT strange she told herself. She licked another finger full and began to clean up.

Making her way back to the drake she noted his cock had once more withdrawn to it's hiding place. It's head lifted to give her a nuzzle-like rub and she patted him. I guess he is really mine now. Or I am his. I certainly SMELL like him now. She got most of the cum out of her fur, but her muzzle and chest were still damp with the stuff, and the smell was strong. Luckily she kind of liked it.. like perfume.

"Well, another day I suppose. I doubt you broke a claw or scratched any scales up too badly, but it's not like I have anything else to do!" she told him as she started to examine his hide inch by inch like she had been taught. Life as a slave here might not be as bad as she thought. Not everyone here was a cruel dragon bastard, and she knew it would take years to discover everything there was to know about the care of these beasts.

"You are smarter than you look... I wonder just what goes on in that head of yours..." she told him. Maybe one day she would find out.

Later that morning as she continued to work on her chores Chakal heard a familiar voice call to her. She walked past the drakes head and saw Josh. "Hi..." she said as she covered herself with her arms, then sheepishly dropped them. "Sorry.. I'm still not used to guys seeing me naked."

Josh smiled, eyes roaming down the body of the sleek unicorn as she drew attention to her nakedness. He could get used to seeing her naked he thought with an inner smirk, then quickly slid a hand to cover himself as his red dog cock poked it's head out of his sheath. "Well we all have our troubles with adjusting to that as you can tell. I don't see many unicorns around, and you are rather extrodinary..." he paused as he caught himself looking her over again.

Chakal blushed as she saw the evidence of the canines arousal and turned to the side, trying to at least keep her nether regions hidden from sight and trying to smooth down her messy, matted fur.

Josh hmmed as he looked the unicorn over and said, "I see you and he... got along last night."

Chakal flushed deeply and let out a snort, "You didn't tell me he was going to treat me like some sort of..." she paused as she was about to say 'sex toy' but blushed again.

Josh looked at his feet and said, "Yeah.. sorry. Your Masters orders. Not all drakes have those kinds of feelings for their caretakers, and your Master wanted to make sure you were not too scared to try sleeping with him."

She continued to rub at her fur but gave up in disgust. After a few more moments of pouting she gave in, "Ok.. I'm not mad at you. I've seen what my Master does to slaves that disobey him."

Josh looked relived, "I'm glad."

"Does.. your drake have his way with you as well?" she asked.

Josh shook his head, "No, she doesn't seem to take that kind of interest in me. Not that I am complaining."

Chakal tried to picture that. "She? I wouldn't think there would be much you could do for her..." she said and stopped again. Why does everything here eventually lead to sex she wondered in frustration. Damn dragons!

With a laugh Josh held up an arm and made a fist, "For those drakes that do, their trainers use this."

Chakal laughed too, "I guess only getting an arm messy is better than what I had to put up with." She wondered at how easily she was discussing being covered in dragon cum, the flushed as she remembered getting it in her mouth by accident, and then on purpose. She wasn't going to ask about that... she would die of embarrassment.

"Well.. I had better get on with my job. Lets see how you have done so far..."

Chakal spent the next few hours showing off her new drake grooming skills and learning more from the dog. If there were no more unpleasant surprises she might get to like living here she thought. She wondered if she would be allowed to visit him, or at least the other unicorns in her Masters lair. She would like to have their company again. She had often looked up hoping to see one of them looking down at her but they stayed away from the edge for many reasons and she wasn't sure if yelling to them would cause trouble.

It was late in the afternoon when she said her goodbyes to her canine friend, and turned to look at a polished and gleaming drake. "You going to molest me again tonight, or was last night a one time deal?" she asked him. I'll find out soon enough she thought, and settled down against his side to rest from her long days work.
