The House Dahan, Chapter VIII: Preparing for the Tournament
The part arrived at the Han estate sometime in the late afternoon. A massive wall stood before them, at least three times the height of a man. It was made of a core of earth, covered in grey stone slabs. The path led to a gargantuan gate, the Han family crest, two entwined dragons, sitting atop it like a golden crown. Two solid bronze doors blocked their way, images of dragons doing battle were engraved on its surface. A man appeared atop the gate and waved at them.
Li approached the gate on horseback and shouted, "Greetings to the glorious House of Han! Li Dahan humbly requests entrance for him and his party!"
The man went back down. A minute or so later, the gates started straining open. The massive slabs of metal groaned as they swung slowly outwards. The party entered as the opening widened sufficiently.
Past the gates, there was a scene of incredible wealth. A titanic building stood in the centre of the wide space. It had been built in typical Chinese style, but adorned with golden dragons at every rooftop and every doorway Chen thought the Dahan house was huge, but it paled in relation to this. Surrounding the house were neatly cut lawns, fountains and paving stones. The latter formed perfectly straight walkways emerging from the house in a tight grid pattern. An abundance of furs were walking every which way.
They dismounted as servants ran up to them. They handed the horses and carriage over to them, handing the young boys a few coins to motivate good care.
A feline approached them, wearing the flaming Crimson of the Hans. He bowed deeply and addressed Li respectfully. "Respectable Master Li of the House Dahan, the Elevated and Radiant Lord Han would receive you and your honorable companions in the great dining hall. His Most Noble and Generous Lordship has also provided you with quarters in his own house, as his Esteemed guests."
Li lifted an eyebrow, Lord Han personally receiving them? Unusual to say the least. "Would Lord Han forgive us if myself and my companions change our attire before meeting him?"
The servant bowed deeply once more, "His Commanding and Inspiring Lordship understands, he will expect you in an hour's time."
After freshening up, the group changed into their finest garments.
Li wore his finest ceremonial armor. His chest and back were protected by a series of sown together metal platelets, each made of silver. The armguards and greaves were solid silver pieces, engraved with the family crest. The fabric worn underneath was made of loosely fitting blue silk. He wore a large blue cloak around his neck and clasped a straight sword to his belt, the sheath and handle embroidered in silver. He stood proudly upright, in military stance.
Ling and Fei both wore dresses of blue silk, adorned with silver embroidery. Both also wore silver necklaces. Ling's dress was also adorned with stitched in diamonds, to distinguish her as higher in standing.
Chen wore the green robe given to him after his first night in the household. While it made him stand out among the others, his eyes lit up like emerald beacons because of it.
The group entered the grand dining room together. The room was remarkably similar to the Dahan's own grand dining room, but a larger version, with gold adorning every available corner and peak. The room was bathed in a comfortable glow emanating from the 3 fireplaces, burning away in three separate walls.
Lord Han stood from his chair and spread his arms wide, his deep voice rolled and shook through the air. "The House Dahan, be welcomed! Please, sit! Allow me to repay the hospitality I received myself from your most Esteemed House!" He glance meaningfully at the two women.
The only other person in the room, his usual retinue of bootlickers was missing, was a smaller dragon. This one was only the size of a small fortress. He stood taller than Chen by only half a head, but his chest and arms seemed solid blocks of muscle and scales. His colour and spikes matched Lord Han's almost exactly.
Li bowed slightly, but respectfully "Mighty Lord Han, I am honored by your offer and will gladly accept. May I understand this to be your son?" Li gestured at the smaller, dragon.
Han's voice bellowed out again, "Indeed! This young dragon is my son and heir, Sun Han. Now please, sit and eat!"
The group sat down in the large wooden chairs, the legs and armrests represented the limbs of a dragon. Li sat to the right of Lord Han and Chen beside him. Ling and Fei sat to the left of the son, who himself sat left to his father.
Soon servants poured into the chamber, putting down plates of food and bowls of wine. Judging from the quality and quantity, no expense had been spared.
As they ate, pleasantries were exchanged between the two houses, compliments given and received. The topic eventually shifted onto the tournament. Lord Han gestured to the cub Chen. "So this must be the future Champion then?"
Li nodded in confirmation, "Hopefully, yes. Chen will be participating in the sword discipline." (The tournament would host 4 events: Sword, Bow, Staff and Unarmed competitions would be staged.)
Lord Han placed his titanic black claw on his son, "Young Sun here will be as well! I am looking forward to their competition!"
Sun glared at Chen, his eyes seemingly casting flames into the room. Chen observed the young dragon, concerned at his potential opponent. He was quite obviously stronger than the wolf.
They ate and they drank, discussing mostly military matters. Chen wasn't all that interested, he'd been exchanging glares with his rival for most of the time. Ling and Fei mostly kept to themselves, unless addressed by the Lord.
Eventually, Li gave voice to their desires to go to bed for the night. Lord Han, of course, permitted them to leave.
As they left, Li put his paw on Chen's shoulder. "Listen Chen, I know that dragon looks tough. Just remember that strength does not determine the winner of a swordfight. Don't let him get to you, alright?"
Chen nodded, "I won't. So what if he's bigger? All that does is make them slow."
Li grinned, "Exactly. Now get some sleep and we'll set up some training for you tomorrow morning. I'll be stuck around Lord Han most of the time, so you'll have to find a sparring partner somewhere."
Chen headed to his room. It was about the same size as his room at home, simply but tastefully furnished. The dropped his clothes off and dropped into his bed. As he tried to sleep, his mind wandered. He thought back to the previous night, blood rushed to his loins. He tossed and turned, but he couldn't get his mind off of his lust. He just had to do something.
A moment later he heard a knock at the door.
He reluctantly got up and walked over, naked. He slipped the door open a crack, looking out without. There was a teenage vixen standing in the hallway, maybe 14 years old. She looked tentatively at him.
The vixen girl's voice quivered a bit as she spoke, "Master Chen...Lord Han has sent me to you to...make you comfortable."
Chen, still only thinking about pawing off, misunderstood. "That's ok, I have everything I need here."
The girl scraped her throat, "Ehm, you don't understand Master...I am to...warm your bed." It was obvious she was new at this.
Chen realized he'd been offered sexual services. He stood hesitantly for a few moments, then he remembered Ling's lessons, saying he should never turn down a gift from someone in higher standing than himself. Never mind the fact that the girl was beautiful and he could really go for a rough yiffing session! He opened the door all the way and let the girl in.
He closed the door and turned around, he saw the girl let her robe fall to the ground. She turned to face him and walked up to him, looking uncertain. Her body was well formed, her breasts still maturing. Chen felt his loins stir at the sight. The vixen stopped in front of him and looked at him, unsure.
He grabbed her breasts and squeezed the soft small mounds hard, she yipped at the feeling. His cock started emerging from his shaft and brushed against the girl's leg. He licked her muzzle. The vixen tried squirming away now, clearly frightened. Chen grabbed her tight and growled, holding her with his gaze.
He wasn't going to be denied a good fuck at this point. His feral lust took control.
He put his paws on her shoulders and forced her down to her knees. Taking his rod in his paw he forced it into her muzzle, starting to thrust his meat forward.
He held the vixen's head with both paws and fucked her face. His swelling knot started bumping against the girl's muzzle with every thrust. The moans escaping from the youngling vibrated around his length. He began speeding up.
His tip prodded the start of the vixen's throat. He reveled in the warm, wet feeling as he roughly thrust further, causing his knot to slip in and out of her muzzle. The girl gagged around him, spurring him on even further. Tears ran down her face as the stiff cock invaded her throat.
Chen felt his orgasm come on and pulled out. He wasn't through with this bitch just yet. The girl coughed and gasped for breath, strands of pre and saliva ran down to her chest.
He pulled her up by her arm and threw her onto the bed, face up. He got on top of her and licked her, roughly lapping at her face. His paws squeezed the small tits hard. The girl yipped and squirmed under him. He whispered in her ear, "I'm going to fuck your tight little ass!"
The girl's eyes grew wide and she thrashed around screaming, beating her fists against his chest. Chen grabbed her throat and growled, he cut off her windpipe and the screaming stopped, "I'm going to fuck you whether you like it or not, bitch." He let go and she gasped for air. He rolled her over on her stomach, sitting on her.
He reached down to the floor from the low bed and picked up a robe. He tied her paws together tightly behind her back. He then rolled her back and forced her legs apart. As his cock prodded at her tailhole, she tried clamping her legs shut again and screamed.
Chen slapped her face hard. The blow stunned her a moment and he rammed his cock inside. The vixen arched her back and squirmed, screaming again. Chen let her trash about as he slowly hilted his cock. His knot pushed against the tight ring.
He started thrusting, hard and fast from the start. He grabbed her small tits roughly and pinched her nipples. The vixen's screams turned slowly into sobs. Tears ran down her face as the wolf cub raped her tailhole. Chen leant forward and licked her face, tasting the salty tears.
He took one paw and rubbed over her clit roughly. She squirmed, being forced to enjoy the feeling. Chen sat up and slapped her tits with his free paw. The claps sent jolt of pain and pleasure through the young girl.
The cub then pushed two fingers into her pussy and started pumping in and out fast. His thumb still brushed her clit. The vixen screamed again, the painful pleasure wracked her body. Chen felt her contract around him, her forced orgasm making her writhe in pleasure.
He pulled out his fingers, leant forward and fucked at full speed. He licked her salty, wet face and planted one paw on her throat, gripping tight. His knot started to force its way in.
Suddenly, his knot popped inside. Chen gave a few more feral thrusts and his cock pumped his warm cum into his bitch. He growled loudly and choked her as he grinded his hips around, his cock pulsing and throbbing inside her tailhole.
Eventually he let go, the girl coughed and gasped. He ripped out his cock and looked down on his victim. He felt a pang of guilt at his actions, his feral lust ebbing away. She was looking up at him, deadly afraid. He untied her and gently helped her up, she ran to the door and disappeared through it. He stared for a few moments.
Chen lied down on the bed and fell asleep.
The next morning, Chen met up with Li in the courtyard, wearing his training gear and carrying his blunted sword. Li welcomed him warmly.
"Chen! Good morning, son! I've managed to find a sparring partner for you to train with. He's over there." Li pointed at a tiger leaning against the wall a bit further. "He's competing in a different age group, he's 14 I think. Well, go on and get started I can't keep Lord Han waiting." The wolf headed out of the courtyard at a brisk pace.
Chen approached the tiger, who stood up straight as he saw him coming. The feline picked up his sword from beside him and nodded at the cub "You must be Chen. I'm Jin, if you don't mind I'd rather get started immediately."
Chen nodded and they headed off to a clear spot of the courtyard, furs were practicing all around them. Chen faced his opponent and eyed him up. He was slightly taller, but not by much. He seemed lean and energetic. The tiger looked down at him confidently and took position. "Whenever you're ready wolf."
Chen took position. The pair circled around each other slowly, looking for a gap. After while the tiger grew impatient and lunged forward with a fast, low swing. Chen dodged and retaliated with a slash at the head, his blade was averted skillfully. Metal clanged loudly on contact. They stepped back and circled again.
Chen tried a feint to the left, before trying to get through on the right with an upwards lunge. The tiger saw through it and dodged the strike, before moving forward and swinging down at the cub's head. Chen parried the blade, both swords slammed against the ground. The blades scraped loudly against the stone as they pushed against each other. Chen stepped forward and hooked his leg behind the tiger's, trying to push him to the ground. The feline staggered, but kept his footing and managed to break away.
Again they stood facing each other, breathing heavy. The tiger smiled, "Not bad, cub!" Chen replied in kind.
They clashed together again and again, steel sang and screeched. After a while they attracted a small audience. Few things beat watching two equally matched fighters for entertainment value.
Chen attacked for the umpteenth time, this time going for a basic, easily spotted strike. The tiger effortlessly parried him, the wolf then lunged out suddenly with his fist and hit the tiger square on the nose. The feline grunted and stumbled, Chen rammed his shoulder forward and pulled a leg up with his arm, the tiger fell hard to the floor. Chen placed his sword on the feline's throat, both panting heavily.
His victory harvested an applause from the gathered furs, he bowed to them. He extended his arm and helped the fallen tiger to his feet. "Well fought Jin."
The tiger winced and rubbed his back, "Not well enough it seems!" They laughed. "What do you say we take a little break? I could do with a bite to eat."
Chen agreed and they headed off to one of the kitchens. The servant provided them with a simple meal of cheese and bread, with some mild wine. They headed off to the gardens and found a secluded spot to eat. They sat down together on a large rock near the edge of a fountain, trimmed bushes and trees surrounded them, with only a small path leading back out to the house.
Jin turned to Chen, "You're seriously good wolf, if I was a betting man I'd put down good money on you."
Chen grinned, "Thanks, you're not bad yourself. But I wouldn't bet too much, Sun Han is looking pretty scary."
"Bah! That spoiled dragon? Doesn't stand a chance buddy. I bet he's used to fighting people that let him win cause of his daddy."
Chen looked doubtful, "I don't know about that, his dad isn't one to mess around....anyway, that's not something I want to worry about right now."
Jin agreed and they ate their meal quietly. After he finished, Jin stood up. He started taking his clothes off, Chen looked at him in surprise. "What are you doing Jin?"
The tiger smiled up at him, "Taking a quick bath in the fountain, why don't you join me? It'll ease the muscles a bit."
He tossed his clothes to the ground and stood naked in front of the wolf. "No need to be shy, you know, we're just guys."
Chen let his eyes wander over the young tiger's muscular frame, his sheath and balls in plain view. Chen got up and threw his clothes off. They jumped into the shallow water, as they sat down it reached to just beneath their shoulders.
Jin leaned back against the edge of the small pool and put his arms over it. He let his head fall back and closed his eyes."Aaaaaah! Nothing beats a refreshing bath after training."
Chen sat down next to him and eyed up the naked tiger, the shimmering water obscured most of his body. The wolf rubbed his sheath, his member started stiffening slowly. He couldn't help but stroke it gently.
Chen masturbated stealthily, his eyes glued to the relaxing young tiger next to him. Jin suddenly looked up at him and grinned, "What are you doing down there man?"
Chen startled and stammered, Jin held up his paw to stop him, "I didn't say stop! You could have warned me is all."
Jin lowered one arm into the water and moved it up and down. He grinned widely at Chen. "Like I said, we're just guys right? Nothing weird to be seen."
Chen resumed his efforts beneath the water, his tongue rolled out of his open muzzle and he panted softly. Jin stood up and sat down on the edge of the pool, showing off his hard feline cock. He grasped it with his fist and slowly stroked it. Chen followed his example.
They sat next to each other, masturbating and looking at each other. Jin licked his lips, "You know I've never seen a wolf cock before....can I touch it for a while?"
Chen released his member and shuffled closer. Jin enclosed his fist around the cub's twitching length, slowly and firmly pumping it. "It's nice and smooth, nothing like mine. Here, have a feel yourself."
Chen wasted no time and took hold firmly, he felt the barbs covering the feline length as he stroked it. He looked up at the tiger "I see what you mean..."
They pawed each other in increasing pace, soon enough they were both panting and squirming around. Pre leaked down their shafts freely.
Chen suddenly stopped and took the tiger's paw off him. As the feline looked up in surprise, Chen swung his leg over him and straddled him. The wolf looked at the young tiger with lust in his eyes, "I've never felt a tiger cock in my tailhole either."
Jin looked on in shock as the cub raised himself up and pressed the feline cock against his entrance. He lowered himself slowly, until he hilted the tiger cock.
Jin moaned loudly, "Fuck! I wasn't expecting that wolf man....but now that you're there." He started thrusting his hips up into the cub. Chen started bobbing up and down as he rode the hard tiger cock, his own cock twitched and felt like it could explode any minute. Jin reached between them and jerked of the wolf cock. His other paw supported the cub's back as he leaned away from him.
The rutting pair grinded together, the pace increased and their bodies slapped together. Chen left the tiger's barbed cock scraping inside him, the sensation was driving him insane. His arms were swaying around under him, the cub was being supported solely by the tiger's arm around his back.
Jin felt his orgasm coming on and furiously fucked the tight wolf cub, he felt his muscles tighten as he shot hot jets of cum deep into Chen. He groaned loudly, grinding his hips and jerking the juvenile cock in front of him. Chen came hard, his cock twitched and shot thick ropes of his seed upwards, reaching as high as the tiger's face. He covered his face and chest in his cum.
Chen leaned forward and licked his own cum off of Jin's muzzle.
After a few moments, Chen dismounted and they washed themselves off, playfully jostling each other. They got dressed and headed back to get some more training in. The next day was spent in similar fashion. The day after, the tournament would kick off in the morning.
