Merciless
I've updated this story, as it was my first and I knew little grammar. I've changed Ashley to Alef for reasons I wont explain. If I missed any grammar errors or spelling errors please point them out...
AGAIN- Date 2/13/11 Updated.
Waking up in a daze, and not having the faintest clue as to whom or where you are, is not the best way to start ones day, I pondered absently.
Something in my head told me to get up and get moving. But my body just laid there, pondering it seemed, on how to go about this task. I might have laid there for a few seconds, maybe a few minutes, I don't recall counting. But suddenly I jumped up and then fell flat on my face. But wait, my mind exclaimed, that's couldn't have been my face; it didn't feel like that when I fell on my face. So I brought my hand to my face, only to jerk it away in surprise. Slowly reaching up again I felt the foreign object on my face; it had fur and whiskers, and the nose, my nose I realized, was cold and wet to the touch. Yep, I concluded with a mental sigh, I had a muzzle. It was then that it occurred to me to open my eyes. That done, I looked around and noticed that everything appeared in a reddish-orange tint and the angles of the room I was in where much more pronounced. Must be the fact that I'm still on the floor, I concluded. Attempting to stand again once again, I found it much easier to stand on my toes. Looking down at my body, I was stunned to see a coat of messy red-orange fur covering my entire body. Out of habit I reached up to scratch my head only to be so surprised that I managed to fall over, again. Scratching again, it seemed that I had ears like a fox.
Vowing to stay standing until I chose to sit down, I got up again; I was starting to get the hang of it, so I took a few steps and started to take in my surroundings. I was in a warm room, which's only light source was a fireplace with a small dwindling fire in it. I looked to where I had stood up and I saw it was right next to a large bed, of which I had obviously fallen out of, given the disgruntled manner of the bed sheets.
The door opened at the other end of that room and a young lady entered the room, a tigress, carrying a large tub of water. When she looked up her eyes widened and she tripped over her own feet, spilling the tub all over herself and fainted. I rushed to her with speed that surprised me and caught her before she hit the ground. I picked up the soaked tigress with relative ease and carried her to the bed and laid her down.
I examined her and found that she wore no cloths, which left her ample breast to hang freely. I felt a blushed spread across my face and I looked up to her face to examine it and I was greeted with a peaceful expression. I noticed that she only had stripes on one side of her face, on the other side I saw a nasty looking set of scars that looked like the where several years old. But even with those scars her beauty was unsurpassed to the extent of my memory (which given my confusion wasn't saying all that much).
Something behind me twitched and I jumped a little and looked to see a gorgeous tail. It was the same color as the rest of my body, but it was much thicker and smoother. I touched it and marveled at how silky it was to the touch. I saw something glint in the firelight at the end of my finger; bringing it up to my face I saw that it was a half inch long claw. Behind me the girl started to stir, so I sat at the foot of the bed and waited for her to say something. And say something she did. She shirked and clambered off the bed and fell. Standing and backing into a corner the, with a terrified look on her face. After a few moments she seemed to calm down and said
"Who are you?" Her voice was as wonderful as her body was, and reminded me of wind chimes.
Trying to find my own voice, I grunted and mumbled a few times, but I finally managed to say
"Hey, that's a good question; maybe you could answer it along with a few others." My voice was rich and deep, and yet the words came out in a smooth and even manner.
I was surprised by the sound of my voice so I didn't say anything else.
She looked at me with a cautious, yet curious expression. After several moments she slowly started to circle me and examine me. Suddenly realizing that I too was nude, I blushed; apparently it showed thought the fur on my face, for she smiled a little
"For the last 2 serics I have been in charge of keeping watch and taking care of a Human that showed up on our doorstep severely injured and barely alive." She stopped for a quick breath and the continued "I've washed, fed, and healed him from near death to reasonable healthy, but he wouldn't wake. Then I come in and find you walking around. My only guess is that you were a human who ran afoul a powerful art user."
Despite all the information I asked "Serics?" She told me that it meant weeks in her native tongue
"Ok that answers some of my questions. But where am I? Who am I?"
"I can't tell you exactly where we are, but I can tell you that you are at Urthers Keep." she thought for a moment and then said "As for your name, I've picked it up while you were muttering in your sleep, its Erik."
"Wait, I mutter in my sleep?" I asked, slightly shocked.
She laughed at this and blushed a little then muttered "Not just muttered."
I asked her what she meant and she said "Well you talked as if you were talking to someone who wasn't here; you called them Artimis; I believe that she was dear to you" At that she looked away, suddenly interested in the dying fire to my right.
"What makes you say that?" I asked in a curious tone, wondering what she was thinking.
"Well you talked about you sexual experiences with her." She blushed scarlet and hung her head a little. "I shouldn't have listened but you were so descriptive and captivating that I just c-couldn't stop listening. I'm sorry."
"Its ok I don't recall what I said so I don't feel embarrassed in the least."
"It still doesn't excuse my actions." she said in a small voice which I found immensely cute
At this I laid back down and thanked her, saying that I needed time to think. She did a little curtsy of sorts and said: "If you need anything at all, just let me know." And with a sexy swish of her tail she was out the door.
I laid there pondering about what she had told me, and why in heavens name she had drawn out and empathized the word "Anything"

Chapter 2
*
Its been 2 months (or srechnar as Alef, the tigress that had been taking care of me, kept telling me) since I woke up to find myself in this furry situation and I was right in the middle of sword practice. Needless to say I was getting mercilessly beat upon.
The day after I woke up Alef had come in followed by another tigress and had me checked out, for this darker orange blue-eyed tigress was a doctor. Her name was Mercy, and she had me do many things such as sprint across the room several times, and to their amusement, I fell down 4 times before I finally mastered it. She also had me touch my toes, do the splits, which I did surprisingly, had me touch my tail to my nose, that one took awhile cause even though it was long, I still wasn't use to having a tail. She also had me read a list of words and phrases. When she was satisfied she told Alef that I was fit and healthy, even if I was a bit uncoordinated. After that I stayed in my room for 3 weeks, while either Alef or another woman brought me food and talked to me for awhile. After those three weeks were up she had me follow her through a maze of halls into a courtyard, which I safely assumed was the training grounds.
She then introduced me to a tigress that I would come to hate and respect in the coming month. Her name was Ven (short for Vennesa).
Alef said that she was to teach me how to defend myself. But Ven, in her nearly zealous attitude, took it to heart and decided to make it her personal goal to turn me into a warrior.
SLAP! I hit the ground from a hard blow to the upper back. Ven laughed and said with evident glee.
"Your gonna have to be a lot fast than that if your gonna be a warrior!"
"I never said that I wanted to be one!" I called back gruffly.
It had been 5 solid weeks of this and while I was improving, I was still pretty bad. On top of the fact that my bruises had bruises, I rarely got a good nights sleep. You see, in a castle of nearly 700 warriors, I was the only male. The women ranged from age 15-60 and they had many species which included: Tigresses, panthers, leopards, jaguars, vixens, huskies, wolfs, lionesses, cheetahs, coyotes, and one or two Persian cats. All of which were in and out of heat. Needless to say I was kept extremely busy at night. Alef also had me studying tactics for some reason. To top it all off, even when I was passed out (For I never slept, as sleeping is a voluntary action) I was having these strange dreams about another life... someone else's life story. I guessed this was my memories coming back but I couldn't be too sure.
"You didn't have to! I saw it in your eyes!" Ven called. "Now get back up and stand in your position so I can kick your ass again!"
I sighed and got back up just a bit irritated, I was getting tired of this, and resumed my position. She started to charge straight at me, but at the last second. She changed directions and attack from my right with a swing to my thigh. I parried and swung a counter attack to her right arm, but feinted and surprised her, and switched it to a over your head blow to her left arm, but she somehow she parried, the swung to the right side of my head. I dodged it and went up her guard and just missed a swing to the back of her right arm and dodged a blow to my left side, twisted and knocked the training sword out Ven's hand and pointed my sword at her throat.
The onlookers started to clap and I heard "I would have bet that he couldn't have touched her for 3 more weeks."
I grinned when I saw the stunned look on Vennesa's face. She quickly regained her composure and bowed, saying "Wow I wish I had seen that coming." Her voice was soft for the first time since I had met her, I quickly decided that I preferred it. Then she barked
"That was pretty good for a novice!" She dismissed me for the day and I found my way back to my room, only to find Alef and Mercy in a passionate embrace, kissing each other while grinding their bodies together.
I stood a few feet away and cleared my throat, they looked and saw me standing there, and then looked to each other, then back to me. They both gained mischievous smiles and beckoned me over with their fingers. I sniffed the air for the tell-tale sign; yep they were in heat. I sighed as a crawled into bed and was accepted by their loving arms

Chapter 3
*
I woke up and turned my head to see that Alef had one leg draped over me and was holding on to one arm while she had her face nuzzled up into my neck and had her ears tickling my nose. I turned to my right and saw that Mercy was just short of being completely on top of me, fast asleep. Brushing aside a strand of Alef 's dark hair, I grinned when I thought about our activities the night before, and then groaned as my back reminded me that it was still pissed off at me. I laid there waiting for them to wake up, and I started to stare at Alef's face. She had her face turned to me as so I could get a clear look at her scars; she was close enough to where I could count them, for she had 13. She stirred and saw that I was staring and asked what I was looking at. I replied that wondering where those scars came from.
Her eyes kind of glazed over in thought and said "I'll tell you if you promise to keep it to yourself." I agreed and she continued to whisper into me ear "When I was young, I was a serving girl in a castle called Mentragor; in it was a warlord, a man that was crueler than the devil himself. His name was Maximus. He held all the land around the castle for 1000 miles and ruled it with an iron fist. For if you spoke out against him, could run to the end of the earth, but he would hunt you down and kill you. There was but one exception to this rule, and only one. Me.
I would call him names until kingdom come and he would just smile pat my head and tell me to be gone, but his advisors where a different story. They would find me at night and cut my cheek with a knife. I was a strong willed girl and I didn't complain. That was until I got this one." She traced a particularly nasty scar running from jaw line to her eye socket. "After that I told the warlord what they had been doing to me. He just laughed and said 'It seems that they are following my orders' that has caused me to burst out in tears and run from the room. I was gone within a week."
A single tear rolled down her cheek, which I wiped away with my finger. "After several months of traveling and working for stay and food I met a fox unlike any other man I have ever known. His name was Urther and he was strong, fast, smart, handsome, and above all else, righteous. He was one of the few that opposed the warlord and stayed alive. We took to each other unlike anything that I had yet to seen. Where one of us lacked the other excelled and after several weeks of traveling together and working to thwart the warlords efforts in any way we could, it become apparent that we have fallen deeply in love."
She sighed and I saw a twinkle in her eye. It was then that I thought about how much she meant to me; I looked into her deep emerald eyes and I saw a small spark of sadness, I made it my goal then and there to erase that spark for good.
She took a deep breath and continued "Our plans became ambitious; we planned to start another country, one that would stand up to the warlord. We searched for several months without success and then we found an ancient citadel that seemed to be abandoned because of some forgotten war, and we made it our base, we called it Urthers Keep. We started to spread the word of the resistance under the table, so as to not alert the warlord of our presence just yet.
"Slowly at first we started to gain warriors from all over the continent. We had warriors from Macrathon, Maximus' country, to the distant country of Alkisan, a country that was too far for the warlord to effectively rule but was irritated by the warlord, and many others countries. But then the worst possible thing that could happen happened. One day while Urther and I were riding in the forest, just enjoying each-others company, we heard a snap and before we knew it we were surrounded by 30 archers, all draped in the purple and black of the warlord. Then before we could move and inch we were fired upon by 30 archers, lucky for me they were terrible shots, for most of them missed, but all it took was one to hit Urther's heart." Throughout the story her voice was soft, but not it took a harder tone
"Seeing the one I loved dead, I went into a blood rage. I killed everyone one those bastards with my bare hands. Only with that done did I mourn Urther's death. When I returned to the castle carrying his body, everyone saw, or the word spread quickly. I declared that I was going to take command of the army, for Urther had taught me everything he knew, and I was almost a match for him with a sword. But the men in the army didn't think that I could lead and they all left. Our army went from the proud number of nearly 10,000, down to only 400 hundred of our female warriors. When I saw those numbers I almost cried and then I remembered a promise that I had made to Urther, that even if he were to die, I would keep our dream alive." She was openly sobbing now, and I, even though I was never an emotional person was not far off, for the story had struck something inside of me.
She surprised me when she continued "But over the years people have joined, all women and now we have our 700 warriors, but that doesn't hold a candle to our previous number." With that she finished and a small sob, which despite all the whispering, was what woke up Mercy. By the time she realized where she was, Alef was fast asleep, her lip lingering on mine where she had kissed me, and Mercy gave me small smile and licked my cheek, which was a thanks for the night before. Then she got out of bed and sat on the rug in from of the fire and proceeded to give herself a bath. I fell asleep hugging Alef tightly.

Chapter 4
*
3 weeks later I had greatly improved in my swords-man ship, I was able to beat Vennesa 3 out of 5 times. That was saying something because she was the 3rd best of all on Qwuellenthas (Qwu-el- en-thas)*the continent that this story takes place on* only behind Urther and some man from across the sea and I was also improving daily.
Last week Alef had made me follow her though a maze of halls to a tower on the far side of the castle. When we entered, my tail started to twitch uncontrollably and when I smelled the air I nearly gagged. Following Alef though the maze of bookshelves and table we came to stand a little ways away a panther that was so dark that I seemed I was staring into a void. But when she smiled, I swear that her fur lightened too.
"This is Silvia." Alef said "She is the leader of our combat magic group."
"Ah, you must be Erik!" She swooped across the room and gave me the most sexual greeting hug on my life, hell it was the most sexual hug, period. She jumped up and wrapped he legs around my back rubbing her lower lips against my stomach, her tail twining around my fluffy tail as she rubbed her C-cup breast against me. She all but humped me and grabbed at my well muscled back, I sniffed the air to see if she was in heat, and she noticed this and said though a mouth full of my fur
"No I'm not in heat yet, if I was I'd be yiffing you already. I'm just a naturally affectionate person," Leaning back she said "but you make a special case." When I asked what she meant she said in a feminine sing-song voice "Quite frankly you embody all that turns me on, you a fox to begin with; you're tall, strong, fast, and smart. You have a great sense of humor and have excellent stamina. Not to mention your Bi-sexual."
At this Alef gasped and turned to me with a look of mock-surprise on her face.
I grinned and shrugged and then tuned to Silvia and asked "How did you know that I was bi-sexual? As far as I know I'm the only male in the castle."
She smiled and said "When you're as powerful as me, nothing can hide from you, but thats not how I knew, you see when your bi sexual it makes it easier to discern who and who isn't, I being Bi myself knew as soon as I saw you. And as for knowing about your stamina word travels fast." She grinned and leaned back forward, and started to clean my chest and slid down a bit, just enough to have her entrance rubbing my sheath. Then in-between licks she said "I also have a great sense of power within you" She started to purr and said "Ohhh you and I are going to have A LOT of fun together."
In a flash Alef was in Silvia's face and growled a long menacing growl and said "He's Mine."
With a groan Silvia feigned a pout and said "But we can share right? I'd be happy to let you join in." she said with a lick to Alef's nose.
Backing off a little she said "Fine" with a cute huff.
Though-out this I stood there holding Silvia up while she had her legs wrapped around my waist. I was fighting a losing battle to keep my penis in its sheath. All the while I had a look like "(*.*)" on my face in concentration. When I heard Alef growl "He's mine." My concentration slipped and my dick shot forth and into Silvia's vagina, causing her to groan.
"W-w-wait? I'm y-yours?" I managed to stutter while blushing from embarrassment and pleasure.
Her face going scarlet she said "That is if you are ok with that" In that cute little voice I just loved.
Leaning over I kissed her and after a second of hesitation she returned the favor. I broke it for a second and said "Of course, my love." Then resumed kissing her until Silvia, who still had my rock hard 8-inch dick deep inside her, humped me a little and I gasped. I looked to see the small panther was looking at me expectantly I looked at Alef, who nodded vigorously. Then I kissed Silvia and withdrew from her vagina a little then pushed my cock deeper inside her and was rewarded when she expelled a gasp. She stopped me and dismounted, and told us to follow her up to her room. My cock kept hard during the travel time due to the combined effect of my great view of Silvia's smooth, well toned ass, and the gentle stroking of my tail by Alef.
When we entered her room I gasped at the size of her bed, it would be able to hold at least 12 people comfortably and more of them even more comfortably, I laughed at that thought. Then I was pushed down by both Alef and Silvia, who climbed on top of me. Alef was laying on my chest doing her best to shove her tongue down my throat, while Silvia was giving me one of the best blow jobs of my life; she was holding the base of my cock with one hand and massaging my balls with the other while she started to slowly lick her way up my dick.
Alef had by now brought her cute pussy lips in my face and my strong canine tongue was assaulting the confines of it. Silvia had reached the top of my cock and was gently sucking on the tip, and then she moved down taking the rest of it into her mouth and wrapping her sand paper tongue around it I grunted and slightly bucked my hips. I felt a little bad for that, thinking I caused her to gag a bit, but she just stayed at it. As if she was reading my mind she somehow said that she had no gag reflex. She sensed that I was getting close to coming and re-doubled her efforts, going faster and faster until it felt as if I was she was riding me, I checked to make sure she wasn't, and sure enough her head was on my cock still going to town.
I started to buck my hips again, for this was without a doubt the best blow job I had ever received. Within a minute, I think, I climaxed and without missing a beat Silvia swallowed every single drop of my potent seed. I continued to climax for well into a minute, pumping load after load into her thirsty maw. Even Silvia had to stop and catch her breath and I pumped my last few loads onto her face.
I hear her say "Damn that was a lot of cum"
She looked at my receding penis and frowned saying "This just wont do, I'll be right back" Then ran out of the room.
I shrugged a little and went to town on Alef 's pussy; I brought my hands up and massaging her left breast with my right hand and with the other I was massaging her clit. With my tongue I was doing my best to lick her insides dry. I was failing, and damn glad I was. All my efforts where not going unrewarded, she was drenching my face and neck with her sweet, sweet nectar, which I was trying to lap up while I continued the assault. She had started to moan loudly and the sound was reverberating off the walls, which only egged me on even more. Soon she was screaming with pleasure and was tweaking her left nipple, then she started to orgasm and was moaning at an incredibly volume.
After awhile her orgasm subsided and she was dozing on my chest when I heard Silvia come up the stairs huffing and puffing. I look to see that she had a huge wicker basket behind her and with a final grunt she pulled it to the end of the bed. She collapsed on the bed and crawled over to my stomach and laid her head down then after she caught her breathe she said "You better be fucking thankful. That sucker weighs a ton."
"What the hell is in it?" I asked
With a wicked grin she got up and dug though the basket and turned away from me. When she turned back she had a fox dick dildo that was 9 inches but was a little thinner than mine. But thats not what surprised me. What surprised me that it was a strap on. My jaw dropped and I shook Alef out of her doze gently and asked her if she was ready for a good time. I got myself a questioned look, so I pointed to Silvia, and then she got a wicked grin and said
"Fuck yea I'm ready."
Silvia grinned at this and said "Oh not for you just yet." and she gestured for her to get off me and then cooed to me "You are gonna get a nice good ass fucking my poor dear." I could barely pull off the innocent look because I was so giddy. It had been ages since I had someone inside me and I had grown to miss it, but in this new form it was gonna hurt, for it was its first.
"Now get on your hands and knees big boy." Silvia said, but I was already there, she grinned and had Alef hug her, then slipped it inside her still moist vagina and then she straddled me and put the dicks tip on my anus and I gasped just from the touch. Going slowly, she entered me a bit at a time and letting me adjust to the size. I was grunting with pain the whole time and Alef got a concerned look on her face, then made a move to stop Silvia but I waved her off and said, "It's ok it always hurts the first time." Silvia's body hit mine and the dildo was all the way in, then she started to pull out and I groaned with pleasure and pain at the same time. She repeated the process until it didn't hurt at all and just felt plain good, and by then my erection was back and I had Alef get under me so I could fuck her. I felt Silvia bend over into my ear and say
"This isn't even the best part." Then I heard a click and the dick started to vibrate.
I immediately came right there on the spot all over Alef's back, and then I called "HEY! No fair."
Silvia giggled and started to pump again and in seconds my erection was back, I started to hump Alef and I head her start to moan again. As I fucked her and got fucked I knew I wasn't going to last very long, even with my great stamina, but I tried and with my effort we kept at it for a good half hour, in that time I felt Alef orgasm several times and I heard Silvia orgasm a few time herself, thought I don't quite know how. Within a few minutes in I could take it no more and I let out a loud yip, and said I was going to come and I told Alef that she better brace herself. I felt it hit and I yelled out and for 2 minutes straight I pumped load after load into Alef 's tight cunt, until the pressure became too great and I took it out and the cum shot out of her hole while I continued to come on her ass. Silvia stopped pumping and took it out and started to milk my balls for everything they were worth.
When she finished we started to clean off Alef, who was out cold from the amount of pleasure she had received, I was lapping out the combined juices of her sweet nectar and my cum that were flowing out of her cunt, and then Silvia told me to share so I went to clean Alef 's back. After she was spotless Silvia took off her strap on and I saw that there was twin dildo on the reverse, just for her. We laid down on either side of Alef, then Alef rolled and put her arms around both of us, then me and Silvia locked arms and then we slept.

Chapter 5
*
The next day I was told that Silvia was to teach me how to use art (magic). But it was a week later and this was now, and as it was I was laying on my bed as Silvia was giving me a rather pleasant tongue bath. When Alef entered and saw what Silvia and I were up to, she grinned and climbed in to the bed with us and proceeded to sit on my stomach clean the back of my neck which left her breast to bounce against my muzzle. I failed to resist and I snaked my tongue out and licked the tip of her nipple, I felt her bite into the back of my neck ever so playfully and she came back to face me and took my halfway out tongue into her mouth, I pulled her to me and kissed her deeply.
Meanwhile Silvia had saw the fun we were having and had moved to my sheath, and was suckling on my jewels as a babe would a nipple, she released my jewels and started to move up my erection (Needless to say that with two gorgeous women on me it was out and ready to go to work) in that slow relaxed way that I absolutely adored. She was half way up when she grabbed my sack and started to massage it gently it, which enticed a moan out of my locked lips, she finally reached the head and lovingly started to take it into her mouth while she wrapped her sand-papery tongue around it.
Alef, not one to be outdone, had intensified our love making and was prodding my tail hole with her tail, I still wasn't use to having my tail hole prodded and penetrated so I shuddered with pleasure and bucked my hips, Silvia thought I wanted to speed up I guess and increased her speed dramatically. I still wasn't use to such skill, so my stamina played no part in it and I was nearly there, that was when Silvia stopped and mounted my cock and slid it into her, she was truly one of the best, for she massaged my cock with her pussy in ways I thought impossible. It wasn't more than 3 minutes before I made a final thrust and pumped several loads into her. She laid there for several seconds and then dismounted, Alef stopped kissing me and moved to my cock with a hungry expression, she milked it for all its worth, she still wasn't satisfied and she moved to Silvia, who was laying a few feet away with her legs wide open massaging her clit gently, and proceeded to lap up all Silvia and mines juices. That done she threw a glance at Silvia who took its meaning and moved to the hearth in front on the fire and promptly went to sleep.
"Follow me Erik, we need to talk." Alef said in a hushed tone. I followed her past the large keep doors, into the woods and there we walked for an hour, just enjoying each others company it seemed, then we came upon a massive grave stone that had a statue of a handsome fox behind it, he was powerful build with broad shoulders and carried a long sword across his back, along with a pair of dual swords on either hip. His armor was magnificent and beautifully chiseled down to every last detail. But what stuck me the most was his resemblance to me.
I knew who this man was and that this was his grave, but why I was here was still a mystery. I questioned Alef and she said "This is Urther's grave I spent my life savings to hire the best mason to craft this statue for me, and I wasn't disappointed." Her tone was that of someone who was just talking, not to anyone in particular, but just stating a fact. "It took him well over a year to do this and when he was done he said that it was his pleasure to craft this statue, and then he gave me my money back saying that this was a favor for Urther, one the best men he ever knew."
She came out of her trance and looked me in my eyes; I saw that accursed spark of sadness in them so I took her hand and asked her again "Why have you brought me here?"
"I have brought you here to ask you a question. One that will shape your life and your destiny, I have brought you here to ask you to be our leader. I know you think that I am capable of hold the position and I am. But not in the eyes on the men of the world, we need a man to lead us or I fear that our cause will die. Not any man, we need a man who is strong and charismatic, one who can make the decisions that others cannot, a man who isn't cruel and heartless. You fill all those qualities and more, you are the one I have come to love and all the warriors respect you; you see beyond the femininity and look at the warriors that they are. You're the kind of man that looks into the souls of others, past the shells that cover the truth and you are the one that I believe can and will take down the warlord, once and for all. So I ask you, will you take up leader ship of our cause."
I thought for a moment, I knew that I would accept but I needed to say something first.
"Before I answer you I want you to hear my past, for it has come back to me in the past few months that I have been here." My voice grew somber as I recounted what I've gather about my past for the last few months of dreams. "I was raised in a noble human family that, by sheer luck, was free of the warlord's influences, as I grew chose to join the warlord, I wasn't forced. I was perhaps one of the fastest raising officers in the entire army; it wasn't 5 years before I was one of the warlord's personal field generals. I was called the most powerful man in the empire next to the warlord and I loved it. I carried out orders for Maximus himself and I answered to him alone.
"That was until one day I was sent to a small village not far from here to take care of an activist. I busted though the door of some random hut with my sword in hand, to find a crossbow pointed at my face, and an angry looking vixen holding it. Either my sheer luck or by destiny, I know not, my life was saved, we met eyes and we dropped our weapons and just stood the looking at each other. After awhile she said the words that came to define my being:
"'My name is Artimis, and I do believe that we are soul mates.'
"Over the next few years I started to become more and more distant from the warlord and I soon was rarely showing up at all. The warlord is a smart man, even if he is cruel, and he took note of my activities and tried to have me followed to see where I resided when I was away from him. Rather than have my secret discovered I killed the man that followed me and I was branded a traitor to the country that I loved, if it wasn't for Artimis I likely would have killed myself."
A few years later, I yearned to have a child of my own, but because I was human it couldn't happen and the fact that I was wanted wasn't going too well for me and I decided that Erik Latream the human need to vanish, so I told my love that I would be back in a few months, and I set off to the to find one of the most powerful art users in the world, Fizban. The journey was what changed me into the kind of man I am now, I saw horrors that no man should have to see, and I am still haunted by the scenes to this day, I saw villages totally destroyed, there where dead bodies littering the street both men of the warlord and kindrids and I was enraged to no end, I made me see what the warlord really was; A monster.
"When I arrived at the magician's tower I told him what I saw and why I had visited him. He was an ancient man that looked as old as time itself, and he was as wise as he was old. I told me that if I planned to do all in my power to stop the warlord's madness he would not charge me for the spell he would cast. I agreed to his terms and with a wave of his hand I felt a strange power all over me. He said that within 5 months I would be the kindrid that reflected my soul, so I set off and in 3 months I was back on the outskirts of my village, the same one I met Artimis in, and within seconds I knew something was wrong. I rushed into the village and saw complete carnage. I searched for Artimis, but she was was no were to be found, so I asked one of the dieing villagers and they said the she was taken be the men that came here, and that they where looking for me.
I knew of the men that they talked about, so I dawned my armor and my custom dual blades, the ones I had made to defend Artimis, and I set out for their camp. I was still tired from my journey but that didn't matter, all that mattered was I needed to find Artimis. I walked into their camp and shouted that I, Erik Latream, had arrived and that I had heard that they had been looking for me. All 160 odd men surrounded me, and that was when I saw Artimis, hanging from the gallows with uncountable gashes on her, dead. Something snapped in me and I let out a terrible battle cry, which was so demoralizing that a few men turned and fled, but I ran at them, and before anyone knew what happened, they were dead. The rest of the company charged me a few at a time, trying to kill me but all of them failed. All of them. I stood, drenched in the blood of my enemies and I swore that the warlord would pay with his life and country. Only then did I weep over my loss. I cut her down and took her to our village and buried her there, I was terribly wounded and struck with grief, but I wandered and I was barely alive, and unaware of where to go. The next time I remember was waking up here on the floor of my room and completely confused." I was crying at the horrid memory the I had to recite, at the loss of my life I had before, and most of all that I thought Ashley would hate me. I was wrong, very wrong. She put her hand on mine and said in a voice that cracked on the first syllable
"I believe you and I still believe that you're the man we need. I'll repeat the question: Will you lead us?"
"Yes." Came the reply from my lips before I even had a chance to think. Then she put my hand on my cheek and we froze, we were looking into each others eyes as we had never done before. We saw into each other soul, we saw what defined us, what drove us, what we were, and the very essence of each other. In that moment we both knew what the other was thinking, what we had thought and we knew that we would know what the other would think. We knew each other better than we knew our selves. Within an hour we came out of our trance to find that we weren't looking into each others eyes, for we had our eyes closed and lips locked, but that we had looked into each others inner eyes. We just stood there arm in arm for the rest of the night.
Come morning I woke to find we had laid down and she was on top of me purring softly. The grin I had worn turned into a grimace; I had always found her purring attractive, as I tried to keep my cock in its sheath. I shifted a little and to my dismay, her purring intensified. I was losing ground fast and I hated myself for ruining this moment, such a serene and calm moment with the one person that I knew better than myself, and I knew she was the same way. When she made a thrust with her hips I knew the little devil was awake, or if she wasn't, she was now for all 8 inches of my manhood where deep inside of her. She looked up from my chest and grinned wickedly and dismounted me and took my moist erection into her hand and had me get up. She tugged on it and made me follow her though some thick forest and in a few minutes we were back at the castle, I gaped at the fact that I couldn't see the castle from Urther's grave. As she led me thought the castle by my manhood which was still erect in her grip and much to the amusement of all who saw, she told everyone to meet in the throne room. When she was satisfied that everyone had heard the news she led me to a pair of back doors to the throne room and stopped, causing me to bump into her, she released her power over me and took me hand, and looked up a bit into my eyes and said
"I hope you done have any problem with big crowds." Then pushed the door open and pulled me in with her onto a pedestal where the throne sat.
My knees nearly gave when I saw all 700 of the keeps inhabitants, Alef saw this and gave my hand a squeeze, I quickly regained my composure, but I was still mute. She whipped my backside with her tail and said
"Say something."
"Like what?!?" I whispered back
"I don't know, just wing it, and say something about why they are here."
I sighed and stepped forward
"Hello, as you all know I am Erik, warrior, an art user and a friend to all of you," This brought several whistles from the crowd; I had enough good grace to blush much to the amusement of those who could see. "I have been here for several months and have grown close to many of you," I glanced at Silvia. Then Alef, who hand I took in mine "Some more than others." At this some of the sillier ones in the crowd said "AWW!!"
"I have been with Alef this last day and she offered to let me lead you. I told her the memories that I have gained from before I was here, and I feel I should share them with you also before I tell you what my answer was."
I told my story to them in a slow manner, letting it all sink in. I saw enraged faces, sad face, neutral faces, a few even cried, but by the end of my story everyone had a trace of sorrow in their faces.
"I now tell you that I accepted and I now call myself your leader, but that would be an empty title without your blessings." I sat down on the throne and waited. Before long Vennesa emerged from the crowd and stood in front of me.
"I have trained you for several months, I have seen your morals, I have seen your nature, I have seen your drive, and now I have heard your past. I believe that what you say is true, that you plan to be a powerful leader for our people, one who can and will kill the warlord, I speak on behalf of all the warriors when I say: You have our blessing." At this the crowd roared so loud I had to cover my ears, Vennesa moved in and said into my hand that covered my ear "Don't prove me wrong." Then kissed my cheek and retreated into the crowd.
Next, after the roar subsided, Silvia stood up and walked over to me and jumped into my lap and put both arms around me, the crowd laughed and whistled at us, and I laughed at this too. Then she said in a matter-of-fact tone "You have my blessing and then some."
At that she kissed me a full mouthed kiss that was so powerful that when she was done I was a little dizzy. She got off my lap and stood next to Alef with a smirk on her face. Alef didn't say a word, but surprised everyone by beckoning me over and when I arrived she jumped on me, wrapping her legs around my waist and kissed me for everything Silvia had and then some; wait what am I saying and then A LOT; she was still on me when I collapsed. She got up less than a minute later and brushed herself off, leaving a stunned me on the floor and just smiled at Silvia's dropped jaw. Silvia turned and told the crowd
"Take my word for this everyone, never try and beat Alef, she is not to be out done. Ever." They where still laughing when I got up several minutes later. Suddenly the was a very bright flash of light in front of me, I was stunned and when I recovered I saw a Siberian Tigress in front of me, who's fur was so white that it hurt to stare, and the black stripes where silver with age, and her eyes where glorious, for they never stayed one color or shade for more than a second. She spoke in a neutral tone that filled the room and drained out all else.
"I am Sareneth, Goddess of all gods, ruler of the heavens, and the giver of life. I have watched this gathering and I have watched you, Erik. Your soul is true, your time is now; do not fail your people. I have come to give my blessing and to tell you that it was I that gave you the bond with Alef, do not fail her and she will not fail you; she shall always be with you and you with her. When all else is lost turn to her and all shall be found." Then she leaned over and kissed the top of my muzzle, I fell over and the last thing I remember was Silvia saying
"Well it turns out only the goddess can out do Alef."
