Something slightly different than usual, permanent vore and a human! As always, comments and feedback are welcome.


“It’s time,” Scarlet said sadly. She had just come back from the entrance where their food was delivered, and James could tell before she spoke that there hadn’t been any tonight. Again. The guards had missed a few days a month on average in the five years that he had been the dragon’s “keeper”, but there hadn’t been any new food for a week now, and their stores had run out yesterday.

James looked up at the dark red dragoness from the rock shelf, trying to think of a solution. “Maybe they’ll come later today, or…”

“He was there. The head of the guard, just outside the gate. He said that the king was tired of his favorite execution method going unused, and that they wouldn’t feed me again until I ‘finished what they had brought me’.”

James sighed. He’d known this was coming since he was sentenced to tend the castle’s dragon ‘until she tired of him,’ but once he and Scarlet became friends, then more, he had regained hope that he might die of old age. He considered running, there were some crevices where Scarlet couldn’t fit, but it would only delay the inevitable. He could go starve in a hole while the only person who had been kind to him in years suffered, or he could make this easier for them both.

Scarlet was watching him, almost hoping he would run. She had really come to care for the human, and despite her hunger she didn’t want to lose him. Still, the choice was obvious, either she would eat him or they would both starve.

“Do you mind if we wait until morning. I’d like to see the sunrise.”

Scarlet’s stomach grumbled, but she smiled at him and lay down, her belly against the cold stone floor. James hopped down and joined her, snuggling up against her side. He wasn’t mad at her, or even scared. This wasn’t her choice, and he trusted her. He reached up and rubbed beneath her foreleg, and she curled her neck to smile at him.

“So I’m guessing they already have the next ‘keeper’ lined up, if they’re forcing the issue.”

“Probably,” Scarlet replied. “Before you came down here, I usually got a new keeper every few months. After this long, I’m sure there are plenty of people who’ve upset the king and would choose this over the gallows.”

“Are you planning on keeping them around for a while?”

Scarlet sighed, her expanding chest pushing against James. “What do you want me to say? That I’ve learned to value people, that you’ve tamed the vicious man-eating dragon and turned her into a regretful dragon who only eats people when she’s forced? Or that you were special, that once you’re gone I’ll miss you and not care about the next criminal they send me because they’re not you?”

James laughed grimly. “The truth is a decent option.”

Scarlet thought for a moment. “Honestly, I feel sorry for the next poor soul they send my way. I haven’t had fresh meat in a long time, and I won’t give a damn about them. I’m not sure they’ll last a week.”

“That long?”

“Well I probably won’t be hungry for a while. After… you know.”

“After you eat me. I guess I will be bigger than most of your meals lately.”

James had never liked shying away from things, he thought it was easier to accept the truth and deal with it rather than try to deny it. That’s one of the reasons Scarlet liked him. Most of the people who had served as Scarlet’s keeper begged or ran or cried after a few days, James never had. He had done his job, cleaning the cave, bathing her, and making sure the water supply didn’t dry up. He talked to her. At first she had assumed he was trying to suck up to her, make her not want to eat him. She had dealt with sycophantic disgraced nobles before, who praised her constantly before losing their nerve. But he wasn’t acting worshipful or overly submissive, he just wanted to talk to someone and she was the only one available.

He told her about his life, the changes that the world had gone through in the 60 years she had been locked down here. He had been a hunter, or as the law would call it a poacher. Eventually, she started telling him about the life she had before being captured by the old king and his knights, how she had terrorized the countryside. Then about her capture, how she was kept alive as a status symbol, proof of the king’s power, until he died and his son started sending undesirables to him, taking pleasure in their suffering and praising her for causing it.

One day, she had felt a need that she occasionally did. Dragons have no sense of modesty, so she just lay down where she was and started to pleasure herself. James had watched, embarrassed at first but quickly overcoming his shyness. He had been imprisoned with her for over two months, and there was no privacy in the dungeon. Watching his friend tonguing her own vent and moaning had proven too arousing, and he had pulled out his cock and started stroking it. He closed his eyes and gasped as he quickly reached his peak, his seed coating his hand and dripping to the cave floor.

When he opened his eyes again, Scarlet was watching him with a small smile. “You know, if you want to help me out, you just need to ask,” the dragon said before dipping her head back down to lick at her folds. James stood where he was for a minute, processing what he had just heard. Then he grinned, stepped out of his pants, and headed over to the dragon, who watched him through one golden eye.

“Would you like some help?”

The dragon pulled her head up and stared at him, licking her lips. After he felt a bolt of fear that ‘help me’ meant with her hunger not her lust, she nudged him towards her vent, lay her head back and, after a minute, coughed impatiently. “Well? You need a map?” James smiled and reached down, rubbing her lips gently. He slipped his finger in, and found it surprisingly tight and pleasantly slick. He added a second finger, feeling her walls stretch around him. “I’m already warmed up sweetie. Don’t go slow.” He climbed over her tail and hiked himself up onto her belly. Her scales were surprisingly soft, at least near her vent, and he slid his member between her lips once before lifting his back and grabbing himself, guiding his cock into her.

Scarlet moaned as he spread her passage, it felt so good to have someone else inside her again. His weight on her belly and chest felt good too, he was around ¾ as tall as she was long, not counting her neck and tail. James wrapped his arms around her, pulled back and thrusted in again. He didn’t know how she was so tight despite her size, but he didn’t really care just then. She was warm and slick and squeezing around his cock and making the sexiest noises, and it all felt so good as he kept fucking her. Suddenly her lower legs wrapped around him, pulling him into her and not letting him back out. He felt her pulse and her legs tightened and pushed him even deeper into her as he ran his hands across her sides while she climaxed. She was quieter than he expected, but squirmed happily as she peaked, still holding the human inside her. Her pulsing pussy milked out his own pleasure, and he screamed as he came into her. She relaxed her legs and James slid out of her, panting happily as he got back on the ground. She rolled over and curled around him possessively, growling. He thought she was going to eat him there and then, but she just stared at him for a moment with her golden eyes and said “Thanks for the help.”

After that night, the pair had sex fairly regularly. There wasn’t much else to do in the dungeon, and they both enjoyed it. He wasn’t the first ‘keeper’ she had used to get off, but he was the first that did it without her lying and saying she would spare them if they did. And in part because of that, because he seemed to actually like her, he was the first that she ever wanted to spare.

Now of course, that wasn’t an option anymore.

James glanced at the small window near the top of their prison. It was still dark outside, but he could feel the time passing. “This waiting is hell.”

“That’s kind of the point,” Scarlet replied. She had seen people go insane in her dungeon, jumping every time she moved and eventually collapsing from fear and exhaustion. While she was thankful for the food and the show, she never understood why people would choose that over a quick hanging. Part of her thought it would be kinder to just lunge, to try and end his suffering quickly. They had talked about what they would want if she did end up eating him though, and James wanted something more… intimate. She couldn’t deny him that. “You want a distraction?” She rolled over, exposing her belly to James.

“I suppose it’s only fair that I get to eat you out before you eat me.” James rubbed her belly, then realized that this would be his new home soon. “Maybe I’ll try giving you another belly rub in the morning.” He moved his hand up and down her belly, getting steadily lower. Normally Scarlet squirmed and churred happily when he rubbed her belly, but today she was just lying there. He stopped, and pulled back. “Please try to enjoy this. All of it, until I’m gone. If this is my last night with you, I want it to be a good one.”

“I don’t want it to be your last night.”

“Well it is. Nothing to be done about that. I mean, I might still be around tomorrow, but I doubt we’ll be able to do this again. Now try to relax and let me make you feel good.” He ran his hand across her inner thigh, lightly petting at first, then squeezing her powerful muscles. With one hand still running over her thighs, he raised the other and lightly brushed his hand in a circle, never quite touching the lips of her pussy. Slowly, he felt her muscles start to unclench, her tension lessen under his patient teasing. He rewarded her with a thumb between her lips, just parting the entrance not penetrating her. He felt the heat coming from inside her, and tried to imagine it surrounding his entire body. He could think of worse sensations.

He pushed her leg down, and she compliantly rolled onto her back. He sat down on her thick tail and lowered his face to her vent. His hands rose up onto her lower belly as he worked her draconic pussy with his lips and tongue. He’d always loved the way she tasted, musky but subtle. He heard her moan softly, and smiled as he pleasured his soon to be predator.

Scarlet had expected that once she relaxed, James would raise himself up and spread her open with his dick like he had so often before. He didn’t though, despite her clearly feeling his erection pressing into her tail through the thin rags he still wore. He wrapped one arm around her leg for stability, parting her lips with his other hand to get his tongue deeper inside her passage. Scarlet started humping up into his face while trying to rub the base of her tail against his cock, wanting to give him some pleasure in return. “Why a-are your pants still on? Why- oh god!”

James sped up his oral assault, switching his focus closer to her clit and suckling it occasionally, instead of brushing against it. He slipped two fingers inside her, curling them against her slick soft walls. Scarlet started breathing in rapid gasps as her climax approached. She didn’t hold back this time, screaming loudly as she came. James pulled his head up as she was panting in the aftermath, looking at the window. The black of night was starting to turn grey. He dove back in, making Scarlet gasp and squirm. Just one more, he could give her one more orgasm before dawn to remember him by. He let go of her leg and dragged his nails against her soft belly scales, his other hand pumping three fingers in and out of her as he attacked her clit with his tongue. Her tail was wagging as he slurped messily, desperately at her sex. Without his arm to stabilize him, he fell off her erratically moving tail. He rolled away from her on the cold stone floor, dodging her tail and laughing until Scarlet managed to hold it still. He climbed right back on, ignoring Scarlet’s insistence that he didn’t need to, that he should use her for his own pleasure now, until she stopped talking and started moaning again. She came again, James slurping the rush of fluids until her vent stopped pulsing around his tongue. He raised his head back up, massaging his aching jaw.

The light coming in through the window was obvious now, distinct from the flickering torchlight. The sun was half over the horizon, the sky red and orange and yellow. James didn’t notice, he was staring at the dragoness in front of and below him, more beautiful than any sunrise. “I love you.” He said, suddenly then cringed.

Scarlet was quiet for a minute, breathing hard. “You had to say that now. Never in the last five years, only now?”

He slid off her tail and walked over to her head, brushing her side as he did. “Sorry. I figured it was now or never, and I want you to know.”

“I love you too. Enough that I wish I’d never met you.”

“And I wouldn’t change a damn thing. I want to be with you forever. I want this Scarlet. Please.” Scarlet rolled onto her belly, laying her long neck against the floor. He rubbed her nose, and somehow made it seem more intimate than anything else he had ever done. He stepped out of his rags, his still erect cock clearly visible to the dragon. “I love you. Now open up, and please enjoy this. I intend to.”

“I’ll miss you.”

“I won’t. And you shouldn’t. Like I said, I’ll be a part of you forever now. Promise me you won’t feel guilty.”

“I’m not going to lie to you.”

“Then promise me you’ll try.”

Scarlet’s stomach growled again, loudly. “I’ll try.” She lifted her head and licked his face, a sign of affection that suddenly seemed different. She tried to separate her hunger and his taste from her feelings, but she couldn’t. So she didn’t. He wanted her to enjoy this, so she would. She ran her tongue over his whole body, letting her hunger start to take over. James moaned as the powerful muscle coated him with saliva, and humped into her tongue as she slowly licked his cock, savoring the taste. She pulled back to look at her love, her meal, but he pressed forward, keeping contact with her retreating tongue. He slipped his head into her mouth, nuzzling her tongue. His arms followed, and he stood on his toes to get further in. Scarlet brought her tongue up between his legs, lifting him off the ground as she raised her head. James rubbed his cock against her tongue as he moaned in pleasure, and she started to swallow. Her neck bulged as James began to slowly sink into her throat, moving an inch deeper with every swallow she made. She had forgotten just how good it felt to have a live meal wriggling its way down her throat, and James wasn’t even struggling, not trying to escape or fight but accepting, welcoming his fate. He hadn’t wanted to waste an ounce of himself before, but now he let himself cum into her mouth.

Scarlet tasted a burst of salt at the back of her throat as James came, just before the rest of him quickly slipped into her gullet. One more gulp, and he slid down quickly into her stomach, making a sizable bulge. It was still for a moment, then Scarlet felt her belly start to churn, working to digest her meal. She felt a slight pressure, not the usual attempts of her prey to claw their way through her thick stomach walls but a gentler caress. She smiled, and rubbed at James, enjoying the feeling of her belly being rubbed from both sides. She rolled over again, lying on her back with her bulging belly moving slightly above her. She didn’t know if he could hear her, but she decided to try.

“Thank you, James. That was the best meal I’ve had in 5 years. Try to get some sleep.”

Scarlet had intended on taking her own advice, but she couldn’t sleep for hours. Her full stomach felt too good, and if she was quiet and listened hard, she could swear she heard James moaning in pleasure. Eventually though, she did fall asleep as her body put all its energy into digesting her food.

She woke up to the clanging of her cell door. Probably just delivering some food, she thought, and tried to go back to sleep. However, soon she sensed something moving in her cavern, and she woke up. A gaunt man dressed in rags was standing near the tunnel to the door, looking terrified. “I… I was told that I am to be your keeper. M-ma’am.”

“Oh relax. I won’t hurt you right now. Go sit down, make yourself comfortable.” The man didn’t move, just stared at her. “What’s your name?”

“J-Jamie ma’am. Please, I-“

Of course it was. “Scarlet. Happy to meet you. Just a hint, annoying begging won’t help you. Go get me some water, would you.”
