Not too much to say about this one. Erebus begins having doubts about Dresnath's intentions, but I won't say anymore than that.

Obligatory content warning: this story contains graphic descriptions of gay sex between an anthro dragon and an anthro otter, domination and submission, and a lot of teasing.

Erebus and the world in which this is set belongs to me

Dresnath belongs to Leon Therma


I woke up with a bad headache. Dresnath was lying in his side with his head propped up on his hand and arm that was resting on the ground. He was smiling widely as he was watching me. It didn't feel like the weird, creepy watching, though; it had more of a sweet, watching-over-you feel. That was almost worse, though, because it made me entirely embarrassed. I could remember every detail of what had happened the night previous, and it was incredible, but that look... it made me turn red.

Dresnath merely chuckled. "How ya doing, cutie?" he asked in a kind tone. Even with how quiet he was being, it made my head pound from the sound. It felt like thunder was blasting it my ear.

"Headache..." I mumbled quietly.

He immediately handed me a small vial filled with a green liquid and a large waterskin. "Drink the green stuff first," he whispered. "You're not gonna like it, but it's preferable to the hangover." I nodded and downed the foul-smelling liquid. It tasted even worse than it smelled, nearly making me gag. I quickly took the waterskin and chugged it down, trying to get the nasty taste out of my mouth. By the time I finished taking my drink, my headache had already subsided.

"That was... fast," I said surprised. I handed the vial and skin back to him.

"Best hangover cure I've ever found," he said. "So, how much do you remember?" his voice had a hint of concern in it. Was he worried about what we did?

I blushed heavily, but smiled nonetheless. I gave his side a gentle rub and answered, "Everything. Never thought that I could be so bold like that."

"That was definitely a surprise," he agreed. "A very pleasurable surprise, might I add. I'm glad that you don't feel taken advantage of." He gave a smile that seemed to be a mix of relief and joy.

"Not in the least," I assured. I couldn't help but return his smile; it was just so infectious. After a few moments of just him staring at me with that charming smile, I couldn't help but chuckle. "Yes?"

Without a word, he leans over and kisses me on the lips. It took me a few seconds to register it by which time his tongue had already found its way into my mouth. I didn't resist at all, on the contrary, I practically purred as he tasted around my maw. The kiss was full of lust and desire on both sides. I couldn't resist giving his tongue a few gentle nips before sucking lightly on it. I could feel my sheath twitch in arousal from the heated kiss.

He broke of the kiss and grinned. I must've been blushing up a storm because he said, "Damn, you're cute when you're embarrassed."

"Th-thanks," I stuttered, still grinning from the rush of the kiss.

He placed a hand on my waist, which was currently covered by the warm, wool blanket, and asked, "So, you're fine with how things are now?"

Not entirely understanding the question, I replied, "What do you mean?"

"Well," he said, shifting a bit so that he was propping himself up a bit higher, "I know that you said that you're fine with what happened last night, but I'd like to know whether you want it to be just a one-time thing or if you'd like to do that some more."

I chuckled a bit and playfully hit his chest. In a joking tone, I teased "You horny dragon, you're just trying to get in my pants again, aren't you?"

Dresnath flashed a toothy grin and retorted, "What pants?" He emphasized the fact that I was still nude with a firm grope on my ass. I couldn't help but give out a soft squeak and blush as he squeezed me. "Last I checked, you weren't wearing any." I didn't have a response for that. "And that would make it very easy for me to do something like this." He moved so that he was directly over me with his hands and knees on either side of me. He gazed down at me with a dominant, hungry expression. It was clear where this was heading.

I couldn't hold back a nervous squeak as I felt his long hard cocks press against my sheath and groin. I hadn't realized that he was erect before that. The simple touch was enough to make my tip emerge from my bulging sheath. With an unsure tone, I whispered, "Dresnath?"

He looks down at me. "Are you okay with this?" he sounded slightly concerned.

I nodded meekly. "Yeah, but..." I hesitated briefly, blushing brightly, "why are you so interested in me?"

Dresnath chuckled and replied playfully, "If you mean why I find you attractive, it's because you're just so damn cute." He gives me a long lick from my nose to my forehead, giving me shivers from the sensation. "If you mean why I took an interest from you since we met, maybe I'll tell you later." He gave another slow grind against my sheath, causing me to erect a bit more. "Right now, I want to mate with you." He growled dominantly as he licked at my neck. "Any objections?"

I shivered in delight and shook my head no. He smirked and said, "I was hoping you wouldn't." He moved off of me and began licking at my sheath and exposed tip. I couldn't hold back my soft moan as his strong tongue dragged itself along my member, urging it out more. "Such a tasty otter," he complimented in a teasing tone.

I felt my face heat up in embarrassment as he brought a little bit of precum out of my tip, lapping it up. A moment later, I felt a couple of slicked-up, clawed fingers push deep into my ass, getting a sharp gasp from me. "Dres!" I yelped out from the unexpected, but not unwelcome, intrusion.

He looked at me with the smuggest grin I'd seen as he replied in his typical playful tone, "Yes?" He didn't stop teasing my ass with his fingers, though. They continued to saw in and out of me, forcing a squeak from my throat.

With a blush and a soft moan, I answered, "That feels good."

"What does?" he asked, obviously knowing the answer. When I didn't reply, he continued, "Oh, you mean THIS!?" He emphasized the last word by adding a third finger and pushing even deeper. I let out a loud moan as I nodded my head. He smirked, "You're such a good, horny otter, aren't you?" I nodded again, blushing brightly as he played with my ass and talked down to me in a dominant manner. He used his free hand to grip my shaft, stroking more pre out of it. "I bet you'd prefer if it was something other than just my fingers, though, huh?" I was too embarrassed and aroused to reply, too busy humping into the hand that was stroking me off. In a firm, but not loud, tone, he demanded, "Answer me!"

"Yes!" I replied quickly.

He gave a satisfied grin and teased the tip of my member, getting a whine from me. "And what would you like up that sexy rudderbutt instead?"

Speaking between my gasps of pleasure, I answered him, "I want... I want your c- ah- your cocks inside me!"

Dresnath's smirk widened. "'Cocks?'" he asked that teasing tone ever-present. "As in both?" I nodded meekly. "Someone's sure horny to get filled." He seemed to relish the fact that my face was crimson and burning with embarrassment. He suddenly pulled his fingers our and released my shaft from his hand. "Alright, pup, if you want my cocks that badly, get on all fours."

Despite my embarrassment, I definitely wanted to have him inside me. It was gonna be tight, but I liked the challenge. And I liked Dresnath. I rolled over to my front and got on all fours, raising my tail and curling it over my body. To get more comfortable, I lowered my front and rested my arms on the ground. I looked back at Dresnath, who was staring at my ass. It was flattering that he liked it so much, so I decided to give it a playful wiggle. "Enjoying the view?" I teased.

He grinned and licked his lips. "Fuck, yeah!" he affirmed. "Such a sexy rudderbutt." He gripped my plump cheeks in his hands and pulled them apart to reveal my tailhole. "This is gonna be fun," he stated as he began rubbing his members along my crack and hole, getting a whine from me. I could feel his pre already leaking from his tips, lubing up my hole and sticking to my fur.

He continued to simply grind himself for a long time, taking his sweet time enjoying the feeling of my rump against his shafts. After a while, I began getting impatient and quietly urged, "Come on already."

That satisfactory grin returned. "What was that?" he asked, grinding a bit harder.

My face burned with embarrassment as I asked, "Would you please... breed me already?"

He seemed to be waiting for that exactly. "You got it, pup!" he growled as he lined both his tips up with my hole and shoving them both in halfway with a sharp thrust.

"Fuck!" I yelled out from the initial pain of being stretched out wider than I ever had been. "Careful back there!" I was surprised at my outburst, but it did need to be said.

He gave a weak chuckle as he apologized. "Eh, sorry. I'll be more gentle." He leaned over me, easily covering me entirely with his body. True to his word, he was much gentler. He started with merely gently rocking himself over me, sliding his twins along with him, while he gave me time to adjust to taking two shafts at once.

The pain slowly abated as his gentle motions soothed my tailhole to relax. He definitely seemed to know exactly what he was doing, much to my pleasure. I gave a soft murr as I said, "That's better."

"Glad to hear," he said softly. He gave the back of my head a long lick that brought shivers down my spine. "How do you feel about getting a bit rougher now that you've adjusted?" He playfully nibbled at one of my ears as he pushed in a bit deeper.

I couldn't help but smirk, wiggling my rump a bit. "You like it rough, do you?" I asked in a knowing tone.

"You bet I do, you adorable, little otter," he growled lustfully, the compliment causing my cheeks to redden a bit. He gave a slightly harder thrust, feeding in another inch or so of his meaty hemipenes into my ass. He definitely seemed to be holding back, though. He seemed to be waiting for my permission before continuing. It was very considerate of him, especially considering how much I could feel that he wanted to go all out.

I gave a slight nod and replied, "G-go ahead, Dres, I think I can take it." I shifted myself a bit to get in a better position to brace myself for what would likely be a powerful onslaught of eager thrusts.

His happy and horny growl rumbled through my ears. "Good rudderbutt," he shifted himself to get better leverage and wrapped on of his arms around my chest. It felt nice having him grip me like that. Almost calming.

And then I felt the rapid increase of his speed and force. The very first one caused me to let out a loud moan while the rest simply dragged it on. It felt incredible. He felt huge inside me, but the pre that he was filling me with served as excellent lube. Dresnath gave a pleasured growl and asked with a very knowing tone, "You like having me spread that tight ass if yours, don't you?" I nodded in response, my face burning. "Of course you do; listen to yourself moan." He licked the top of my head again.

"And then there's this." He suddenly wrapped his hand around my throbbing, leaking shaft. I let out a high moan as he tightly gripped my member. "So leaky," he teased. "You're loving this, aren't you?"

I nodded and arched my back against his bare chest. As Dresnath's cocks pushed against my prostate I let out another embarrassingly feminine moan. "Oh, gods!" I panted in delight, clenching my tailhole tight around the dragon inside me. "Right there! Fuck me harder!"

"You mean like THIS?" Dresnath's hips slapped against my ass as he pounded into me, hitting my pleasure center with expert precision. I wanted to tell him not to stop, but I couldn't form words. Everytime I opened my mouth, the only things that escaped were my desperate moans and murrs.

Dresnath grazed his sharp fangs against my neck in a show of predatorial domination that I couldn't help but shudder at. In a low growl, he said, "Does the horny, little otter need this dragon's dicks in his ass? Does he need for me to fill him up with his potent seed once again?" All I could do was nod emphatically, blushing in sheer embarrassment and arousal. His dominant personality was so thrilling and enticing to me.

His thrusting was getting much rougher, more bestial. And with each thrust hammering against my pleasure center, I was leaking pre like crazy, soaking up Dresnath's hand as he continued to stroke me off. "Too horny to even speak, huh?" His smirk was practically audible as he spoke. "Show me that you need my seed," he ordered. I thrust my hips back against him eagerly, flexing my hole to milk his cocks. "Show me just how much you want me and cum for me." His grip on my shaft tightened as he stroked me off at a much faster pace.

I couldn't have held back my orgasm even had I wanted to. The sensations were just overwhelming. I let out a carnal moan as he forced me over the edge. My tailhole convulsed around him as he hammered his hemipenes into me recklessly. "Fuck yeah!" he growled. "Here comes your treat, rudderbutt!" He hilted himself inside me once more, and I felt his members pulse as he filled my ass up for the second time.

I collapsed to the ground with Dresnath lying on top of me, both of us enjoying the pleasantness of our afterglows. Dresnath licked at the back of my head as if he was grooming me. I couldn't help but blush at the intimate act. Then I suddenly felt... I don't know what exactly it was, but it was worrisome. The situation was confusing me to no end. We'd known each other for only about a week and we were doing... this? I didn't understand it.

Without a word, I shifted to try to get out from under him, and he obliged slightly reluctantly. He seemed to enjoy lying on me and licking my head, and while it was... nice, I couldn't enjoy it. Not right now. I stood up, his seed leaking from my hole and running down my thighs. I began heading out, "I'm gonna go clean myself up."

"You want some help with that?" he asked in a playful tone. I gave a simple no as I continued towards the river.

Once I got there, I tossed my clothes to the side and immediately waded into it, letting the lazy river flow by me, cleaning off the sweat and seed from our activities. Unbidden thoughts ran through my mind. 'What the hell am I doing? I barely know the guy. This could've been the entire reason he wanted me to travel with him. He could've simply wanted me as some sort of sex toy. He was the one who insisted we drink wine and play that drinking game. Was this his goal? To get me to let him fuck me?'

I took a deep breath and dunked myself under the water. There was something about being entirely submerged that was... calming. I sat down on the riverbed and watched as the fish swam by. I could've easily snatched them up had I been so inclined, but I wasn't in the mood for fishing. There was too much running through my mind. 'He seemed so nice and kind before. He's a perv for sure, but it was all in good fun, even if it was at my expense. But... while we were doing it, he was different. He was aggressive, almost domineering. Especially with those comments. As hot as they were... I dunno, there seemed to be more to them.'

I traced a claw along the muddy riverbed as I mulled things over. I wanted to trust Dresnath, I wanted him to be that protective guy that nursed me back to health for three days and offered to teach me how to properly wield a blade, but... this new side of him had me troubled. I still knew so little about him and his motives for helping me were a complete and total mystery. I couldn't help but doubt him more as these thoughts sped through my head.

I was suddenly yanked out of my thoughts when I heard the sounds of garbled yelling. It sounded as if Dresnath was looking for me. For half a moment I considered just staying hidden, but that would've been unfair for him. Despite my doubts, I knew that he was still my best hope at surviving my quest. And my doubts were all just speculation; I could've been entirely wrong and left a kind-hearted dragon just because of an overactive mind. So, I swam to the surface and popped my head out, inhaling a cool, refreshing breath of air.

"There you are," Dresnath said with a toothy grin. He was still naked. While the sight was definitely pleasing, a niggling at the back of my mind made me wonder if he hadn't put clothes on because he expected more sex. "I was starting to get worried. C'mon, I've got breakfast ready."

"Right," I replied simply, wading to shore. Right as I was at the water's edge, he turned and began heading back to the campsite, with me following behind. As we neared it, the scent of cooked eggs and pig made my belly rumble. It definitely smelled great, especially with how hungry I was. He had already divvied up the food onto two plates which each had a glass of water next to them, all of which had been neatly placed on a foldable tray that props up ; useful for eating in the woods where there are no tables. I sat on the ground next to the tray and began eating the prepared meal, which was pleasant to the palate.

Dresnath began to eat as well. After a bit of time eating in silence, I noticed that Dresnath was watching me. "Hey, you okay?" he asked, sounding genuinely concerned.

I nodded and gave a short response, "Yeah, I'm fine." I quickly took a bite, giving me an excuse to not talk.

He gave an unconvinced look. "You've been acting distant ever since we finished this morning. What's wrong?" I chewed slowly, prolonging my time to come up with a believable excuse. "If you aren't okay with having sex with me, just tell me." He took on a bit of a tone that seemed to mix teasing and flirty, probably trying to lighten the mood. "It'll be hard to resist you with those good looks, but I can be strong."

I didn't know how to respond. I wasn't sure whether I should simply tell the truth and say that I was having trouble trusting his motives or simply say that I was just really uncertain about things, or to simply brush it off as being tired. Deciding that I'd prefer to know the truth now than later, I opted for the former. It took me a while to figure out how to phrase my answer, during which time I felt like Dresnath's eyes were trying to study my expression to glean the information before I even spoke. Probably my imagination, but it was still disconcerting.

"I've been having doubts and bad thoughts about this situation," I admitted. Dresnath gave a small frown, but didn't interrupt. "My mind was just rushing with these thoughts even though I don't want them. And... I'm just worried that these wild ideas might be true."

Dresnath nodded. "I see..." he replied slowly. "I appreciate your honesty, Erebus, I truly do. I'm sorry that what I've done has caused you so much distress. What can I do to help alleviate these fears of yours?" He was so calm; he didn't seem nervous at all. Seeing him so in control of himself was comforting in a way. I felt like it was a good sign.

After a bit of thought, I asked what I figured would be the most important thing I could know about him. "I want to know why you want to travel with and train me."

He nodded. "Alright, I can answer that. But in return I expect an honest answer of a question in return. Do we have a deal?"

I already had a guess as to what the dragon wanted to ask me. For the peace of mind that I expect his answer to bring me, I was willing to answer that. I took a sip of my water and then nodded. "Deal."

"Alright," Dresnath started, "you're right in the assumption that I have a specific reason I wish to travel with you." He paused for a short while, seeming to be gathering his thoughts. "I enjoy traveling with companions. It's lonely to travel solo with no one to talk to or to have my back. I very seldom travel alone because of these reasons. That's why I was so eager to have you join me. Offering to train you was extra incentive, and I figured that it would be a good way to spend time with you."

I was studying his expressions and tone of voice while he was giving his explanation. I wouldn't say that I was a perfect detector of lies, but it seemed that he was telling the truth. There was one thing that made me wonder, though. "Why were you alone when you found me, then?"

"Hold up," Dresnath said as he set down his empty tray. "It's my turn to ask my question. That was the deal. What is it that you're seeking that requires that specific blade?"

Just as I had suspected. I knew that his question would be related to why I was traveling. It's what I would've asked if I were in his position. I finished off my meal and my waterskin before replying, "Revenge. There's someone who owes me a debt of blood."

Dresnath gave a nod of understanding. He looked over to the scabbard that held my blade. "I suspected as much. And that's the blade that was used?" Despite being phrased as a question, it was clearly meant as an assumption. A correct one at that. "Who did this person take?"

I shook my head and said, "I answered your question, so now it's your turn. You're clearly charming enough to get people to like you and to travel with you. I'd like to think that I'm not that weak willed that I'd say yes to travel with anyone. So why didn't you have a companion with you when you found me?"

"Fair question," Dresnath replied. "I would've wondered the same. The person I was with before, a cougar guy who was great with a lance... Well, a month ago we took on a job that was apparently too difficult for us... He didn't make it."

I immediately regretted making him tell me. I didn't even consider the possibility. "I'm so sorry," I said softly. "I didn't even think-"

He interrupted me, "It's alright, there's no way you could have. And thank you for your condolences. I just hadn't found the right traveling partner until I met you. And I'm hoping that you can think the same of me now that I've explained what you needed to know."

I just needed one more answer. "And the sex?"

He smirked at the mention of it. In a much more upbeat tone, he answered, "Completely optional. Although, I'd be remiss if I didn't say that it was quite enjoyable and I'd love to continue it."

"I guess we'll see how that goes, then," I replied. I stood up. "We should probably start heading off if we want to make it to Astol today."

Dresnath nodded in agreement. "Yes, although, you still haven't told me who it is this murderer took from you."

"Right," I said, "I suppose I do owe you that, don't I?"

While we were packing up the campsite, I told him what he wanted to know. I had initially just planned on telling him who it was, but after the admission he had given about his prior partner, I thought he deserved more than just that. So, I told him about the night when it happened. I described to him how my father and I had stayed up late teaching me knot-tying, how I had gone out of the room for a few minutes to bring back more materials, and the sight of my father fighting a cloaked figure when I returned. I told him in detail about the sense of paralytic fear and helplessness while the figure took my father's own blade and impaled him through the back with it, leaving my father to die while he fled back to gods-know-where. By the end of the tale, Dresnath was holding me close in his arms, his wings wrapped around me as if shielding me from an outside threat.

After he got me to calm down, he said in a calm tone, "Thank you for sharing that with me." He rubbed at my back and I couldn't help but nuzzle into his chest. I finally felt like I could fully trust him. He furled his wings back behind him and he kissed my forehead. "Now, what do you say to getting dressed and getting started on that walk to Astol? We should still be able to make it there before supper if we go now."

I nodded and began clothing myself while Dresnath did the same. "Sorry about being so mistrusting," I apologized meekly.

After he finished getting dressed, he replied, "It's completely fine. Trust isn't earned in a day, even if that guy does save your life." He said the last bit with a playful demeanor. We started heading towards Astol again. "So, any idea what species this guy is?"

"All I know is that he had grey fur and a tattoo on his wrist," I replied. "It was of an ouroboros and had some sort of symbol in the center. I've got a drawing in my bag." I took off my bag and began looking through it for the paper with the drawing. Once I found it, I handed it to Dresnath who took it and studied it.

"Hmm..." It didn't sound like he recognized it. "This glyph, just how accurately do you think you drew it?"

"That tattoo is burned into my memory," I replied. "I'm certain that's how it looked." He handed the paper back to me and I placed it back in my bag, returning the pack onto my back.

"Then we'll ask around the towns if anyone recognizes it," he said. "It may be a glyph from the arcane language, but it's not one I recognize. Any mages we run across, we'll ask them about it. It seems odd that the ouroboros is incomplete, though. Usually the snake has its tail in its mouth."

I nodded. "Yeah, that is definitely odd..."

I felt Dresnath place a clawed hand on my shoulder. "We'll find him. I'll make sure that we do."

I couldn't help but smile. His conviction and determination almost made me believe that we would. "Thanks, Dresnath. I really owe you."

Dresnath rubbed my shoulder and smiled. In a genuine tone with an undertone of playfulness, he replied, "Your company is enough for me. Especially since you're so damn adorable." I couldn't help but blush at the compliment. "Even moreso when you blush like that."

"Dresnath!" I whined as I looked away in embarrassment.

"Yes, sexy rudderbutt?" he teased. I could feel his gaze focused on my head with that smirk of his that showed off his fangs.

"You're embarrassing me," came my whine. Getting embarrassed like that always made me whine a bit.

That scaled hand of his danced down my side before settling on my waist. "Well, that would be the point."

For a moment I considered telling Dresnath to remove his hand, just out of reflex. But then I realized that I liked it. It was nice, and I trusted him. So, instead, I simply chuckled and walked a bit closer, my tail wagging happily.
