The Gryphon's Mate
An outcast finds himself stranded far from civilization with nothing but his loyal mount. He soon realizes their feelings for each other are much more than simply platonic ...
There is a place in the world, beyond the farthest reach of mankind – where no being should ever venture alone. A land where the blazing suns never set, and the scorching dunes of white sand blanketing the continent rise and fall, as the great empires scattered among them did long ago, their ruins forever buried in the crushing wastes … forgotten, and extinct. A place so inhospitable and cruel, one might wonder what sort of lost soul would dare set foot upon its dreary surface.
Nothing human, to be sure.
For some, it was the promise of riches untold. A great adventure, lost within the ancient catacombs beneath the shifting sands, forgotten, and never to be found again. Others, as a means of punishment. Exiles, vagabonds and rogues, unwanted by civilization, and sentenced to wander the shifting seas in eternal solitude, consumed by the vastness of it all, until nothing else remained. And for others, it was a means of escape. A blank slate. A place to begin anew.
Or so Kaidon had hoped …
A lone human wandered through the endless sea of glass. Tightly wrapped in his tattered, rough-spun wool cloak that billowed all around him in the wind. Ahead, through the cloud of dust, he could just make out the bulky outline of Night-Wind, his trusted gryphon-mount. The large brown beast pushed on ahead as it had been doing for hours now, slouched against the shrieking storm that whipped through its ruffled fur, and buffeted them back every step they took. Kaidon had lost all track of time by now, but he knew they'd been wandering for hours. A sudden storm had forced them to land, and now, they were caught in the middle of it. Lost.
He drew a ragged breath, flinching as the sand scraped across his exposed skin and sliced at his face. He'd done his best to protect himself from the hazardous winds, but the storm was unrelenting as it was vicious, and he knew it would not let up. Kaidon cursed under his breath. The Old Man had warned him of this. Had warned him of the dangers of crossing the desert on the eve of a long night, and he was a fool for ignoring his advice.
“Do not leave the village, lone traveller, as you'll find yourself lost without the Bright Star's solemn guidance."
_ Kaidon drank deeply from the wooden flagon in-front of him. The wizened old man had appeared out of nowhere, dark, haggard, and crooked, but brimming with a manic sense of urgency. The haze of inebriation swirled unpleasantly to the fore-front of his mind, and he set the drink down, staring at the ancient-looking male sitting across from him. “What do you want?" he grumbled. “You don't think I have the mettle to survive out there?"_
_ “Oh, I do not doubt your resolve." the man humbly replied. “But if you decide to venture out into the wastes, know that it is a cold, and empty place, devoid of any semblance of normalcy."_
_ “I'll be fine." he replied shortly. “I've weathered worse before in my travels."_
_ “That may be so, but heed my advice, for it will do you some good. Do not be fooled by the shifting seas. Not everything is what it seems out there. Linger too long, and you'll find yourself led astray by the whispering winds. Succumb to it … and you shall remain there forever."_
_ Kaidon took another sip of the strong, unpleasant liquid, feeling it's warmth blossom inside his chest. He waved a hand dismissively. “I don't have time for your superstitious ramblings old man. Leave me be."_
_ “Do not drink from the Oasis Kaidon. Do not drink the water. You cannot escape your fate out there."_
_ A tingle of fear coursed through him. “How did–" he looked up, but the old man was gone. Kaidon took a deep breath and sighed, shaking his head and leaving the tavern with naught but empty pockets and a throbbing headache. He slept poorly that night, besot with wild dreams and strange visions that flitted from his memory upon waking. He departed early that morn, a foul wind stirring in the air._
_ _Now, wandering through the wastes, lost and alone, he was paying the price for his insolence. He should have never left that lonely tavern on the dusty outskirts of town. He should have returned from whence he came and flown back to the Kingdom, but he knew he could never go back. Not after what he'd done. The Concordat would spare no mercy for the likes of him, and even if they did, was a life of poverty, strife, and brutal oppression truly worth it?
_'Better than this.' _Kaidon thought grimly. He collapsed to his hands-and-knees, heaving for breath and exhausted, his eye-lids crusted shut from the relentless storm ripping at his clothes. Night-wind looked back and noticed him fall, rushing to his side and nudging him with his smooth, yellow beak. He reached up and tried to stroke his gryphon's mane, but his muscles had no strength. He tried to tell his mount to leave him, to abandon him and seek shelter in the wastes, but his mouth was parched and dry, and the only sound he made was a quiet groan of defeat. The large gryphon craned down and wrapped a massive wing around him, protecting him from the storm, and nuzzling his cheek, its deep, icy blue eyes shining with fear. Night-Wind's soft vocalizations comforted him somewhat in the stuffy embrace, but not by much. He knew he'd be responsible for his mount's death out here, and the thought disturbed him greatly. He'd failed them both.
He lifted his mount's wing and looked off into the distance. They'd finally made it to the top of the tallest dune, but all he could see for miles around him was nothing but more sand and emptiness, the crumbling remains of great stone structures buckling under the sheer immensity of the desert surrounding them.
The storm relented for the briefest of moments, and Kaidon spotted something in the distance … a couple leagues to the north … a fertile sanctuary nestled deep at the edge of an arid steppe. Trees. Water. Life. He pointed weakly towards it, Night-wind following the pathetic gesture with his sharp, predatory gaze. “Go." he croaked, praying it wasn't simply another mirage. The last thing he felt before darkness took him was the gryphon's beak closing around the nape of his hood. Tugging … dragging ... pulling him towards it. Darkness took him.
***
He awoke, gasping for breath, choking as a cold, liquid water flooded into his mouth and splashed all over his face and neck. He reached up like an infant and clutched at Night-Wind's soft mane of feathers, inhaling the gryphon's thick, musty scent, and desperately holding on as the beast fed him as if he were a hatchling of his own kind, regurgitating the contents of his beak straight into his open mouth. Water. Lots of it. He swallowed and swallowed until it spilled down his chin and he thought he'd be sick. He was. He turned over and vomited into the grass beside him. Vomited until he thought he'd never stop. He needed more. Lots more.
“Go." he croaked. “More." His gryphon stared at him curiously for a couple seconds before quietly slinking off, disappearing into the dense wall of foliage a dozen meters to his right. Kaidon sat up and caught his breath, looking around and trying to gain his bearings. It was nighttime, that much he could tell. The stars were shining down brightly in the Great Beyond above, but something about them didn't feel right. The constellations were as numerous as they were unfamiliar, and he couldn't spot the Bright Star among them. How long had it been? The days were supposed to last for weeks out here, but they'd left not a cycle ago. surely it hadn't been that long. Had it?
He was lying on a bed of sand-dusted grass at the edge of a jungle … the oasis he'd spotted earlier. The storm had passed much to his relief, although he still couldn't shake the nagging sense of confusion that swirled in its absence. How long had he been unconscious? Surely not more than a few hours …
To the East was the expansive desert, lonely and foreboding, stretching on as far as the eye could see. To the West, nothing but dense, lush foliage. Even the trees here looked odd, like nothing he'd ever seen before: Large and spiny, covered in leafy palms that reached towards the heavens, before bending outwards and casting everything in their dark, looming shadows. The temperature had cooled somewhat as well. Humid and wet, quite unlike the arid dunes behind they'd been venturing through for days now. The wind meandered lazily though the air, smelling sweet of ripening fruit, and fresh, nighttime dew.
His gryphon returned, bounding out of the jungle and heading straight in his direction. He smiled, accepting the creature's nuzzle of affection and gently stroking it's wonderfully soft, oily fur. Night-Wind gazed at him expectantly, his mouth full of fresh water. Kaidon closed his eyes and let the gryphon settle over-top of him, opening his mouth and allowing the creature to nourish his body. He swallowed the liquid carefully this time, trying to ignore the faint, slimy aftertaste of his beast's saliva. When he'd finally had his fill, he pushed the gryphon away and wiped his mouth. Night-Wind cocked his head and stared at him happily, batting him with a large paw and demanding some sort of praise. He reached out and scratched behind one of the bird's ears.
“Thanks." he croaked. “I needed that."
The large owlish creature gave a hoot of pleasure.
The water tasted amazing considering he'd been practically dying of thirst. He patted his mount's muscular flank and pulled himself up, trying to keep from losing balance. He still felt weak and unsteady on his feet. “C'mon now, show me where you found it." Night-wind draped a long brown wing around him and pulled him in close, letting him lean most of his weight on the creature's strong back. He silently thanked the gods for having such a trusty mount. His only friend in this lonely, unforgiving world.
They trekked through the jungle for a couple minutes, marvelling at all the strange sights and sounds the world had to offer. He spotted birds of paradise he'd never seen before, awash in colors of the rainbow, singing and chirping and squawking in the vibrant canopy above. After wandering through the White Wastes for ages now, the sight of such beauty was almost overwhelming. Flowers blossomed at his feet. Red, yellow and blue, their petals glistening with moisture as if it had rained not moments ago. He found it strange how this oasis hadn't been swallowed up by the desert yet. Nothing lasted for long out here, and yet, here it remained, unclaimed by the sands of time. It seemed like they weren't the only ones who'd sought shelter here either. The path they followed had the familiar markings of someone cutting through the thick underbrush, although judging by how overgrown it was, it had been a long time since anyone had set foot here. Years perhaps. It felt good knowing others had come this way. He prayed they'd found refuge in their travels, and not met some grisly demise.
The path ended in a large clearing, and Kaidon's eyes widened in disbelief at what he saw. Night-Wind had led him to the source of water, and there was certainly no shortage of it. He stumbled to the edge of the massive pond, marvelling at how still and calm it was in the night. A faint, mysterious mist lingered above it in the air, thousands of stars reflecting upon its cool, motionless surface.
He collapsed to his knees at the mossy edge and removed his tattered hood, staring down at his tanned, weary reflection. He looked completely exhausted, his dark black eyes hollow and sunken-in, and his unruly locks of pitch-black hair crusted with sand. Kaidon cupped his shaking hands and lowered them into the pond, dipping them in the icy water and drinking deeply. He almost cried. It was the best thing he'd ever tasted, the clear liquid soothing his aching throat and spilling all down his front. He closed his eyes and drank his fill, Night-Wind joining him by his side and lapping at the fresh water, ripples scattering along the once-calm surface.
By the time he was done, Kaidon's belly was full and he felt incredibly refreshed. He stripped down naked and hung his clothes on a nearby branch, stepping into the pool of water and wading out into the middle of it. The pond was relatively shallow considering how big it was, only rising up to his navel at the deepest point. He submerged himself beneath the surface and washed all the dirt and grime off his body, breaking the surface with a hoot of joy. It had been ages since he'd last taken a bath, and certainly not one this thorough! He turned about and gestured for his mount to join him, smiling as Night-Wind perked up and bounded in after him, rustling his feathers and sending water everywhere.
Kaidon gave a hearty laugh. His mount looked ridiculous wen wet, his brown feathers clinging to his bulky physique and giving him a gaunt, runty look he found highly amusing. He splashed his mount a couple times and wasn't surprised when Night-Wind pounced on him and wrapped his fore-massive paws around his chest, dragging him beneath the surface of the water. He grinned, struggling for a few seconds before Night-Wind decided he'd had enough and let him up. He broke the surface with a splash and stroked his mount's head-fringe, brushing all the sand and dirt out of his dense feathers. Night-wind beamed up at him happily, his ice-blue eyes betraying a look of absolute trust and endearment. Kaidon smirked. It was rare, these sort of moments, and he always cherished them whenever he could.
“You saved my life today, you big ball of fur. I guess I should say thanks."
Night-Wind gave a happy “Wark!"
_ _He grinned and scratched behind one of the gryphon's fluffy ear-tufts, the bird's eyes glazing with pleasure as he rubbed him just the way he liked. Kaidon leaned forward and pulled his gryphon in close, touching his forehead to Night-Wind's.
“I promise I'll never let you go." he whispered. “You're mine, and you always will be. Remember that okay?"
Night-Wind gave a soft, melancholy chirp, nuzzling against him. He breathed in the gryphon's earthy, musk, hugging the creature tight against him. Together, they left the pool and settled down on the grassy embankment, Night-Wind draping a wing across his naked body as both of them drifted into a deep, comfortable sleep. The wind whispered soothingly through the tree-tops above …
***
He dreamed he was flying through the clouds. Flying above the world, and gazing down upon it's magnificent beauty through the sharp eyes of a gryphon. The weather was crisp and temperate up here, the sun blazing down in the sky above, and casting its warmth upon the sprawling landscape below. The wind rushed through his cream-colored feathers, flowing down his powerful shoulders, and off the tips of his outstretched wings. He opened his beak and let loose a screech of joy, the sound echoing through the endless mountains that towered all around him, their peaks dusted with the cold frostings of freshly fallen snow. To his surprise, another gryphon returned the call – its exotic warble reverberating pleasantly inside Kaidon's feral mind. The sound excited him and made him want to seek the creature out, and he trimmed his wings and fell into a free-fall, whistling through the air towards the tallest mountain where he knew the creature surely must reside.
_ He landed on the top of the mountain, rustling his tailfeathers and surveying the world below with minor interest, sniffing the hard terrain and setting out to find the gryphon who'd called back to him. He could smell the thick, masculine scent of another male lingering in the air – somehow familiar, yet so much more … alive when experienced through the nares of a gryphon. He knew that rich, musk-laden scent well. It was the smell of a male. The smell of his cock, his sweaty sheathe, his heavy, swollen testicles aching for release, and even his tight rump – all begging to be claimed. It was the smell of a needy gryphon who desperately wanted to be fucked, and who was willing to lift his tail for any male if it meant getting off._
_ Kaidon knew without a doubt in the world – that male would be him._
_ His heart pumped wildly inside his furry chest, his senses acutely sharp now that he'd detected the possibility of a nearby sexual conquest. He quickened his pace, and it didn't take long him long to find the male in question, sliding down a rocky embankment and spotting him preening and wafting his scent all over the densely forested mountaintop. Kaidon stopped in his tracks when he spotted the gryphon's soft coat of dark brown fur rustling in the breeze, the tips of his feathers flecked with white, and his icy blue eyes staring at him from across the way._
_ It was Night-Wind._
_ Kaidon couldn't think, couldn't breathe, couldn't move. The scent of his mount's eager body ready to be claimed erased any sort of self-control he once had, and immediately – he felt himself surrender to his basest instincts. His sheathe twitched with lust, and he glanced between his front-legs and watched his floppy erection spill from it's protective tube, hardening within a few short seconds. He had a gryphon's penis. A big, black, veiny looking thing, covered in tiny, fleshy barbs and ending in a smooth, tapered tip. A set of equally massive balls swung beneath it. The scent of his gryphon-hood was so strong, he wrinkled his brow at its intensity. He hadn't spilled his fertile seed in ages, and now was his chance. _
_ Kaidon licked his beak hungrily and looked up as Night-Wind approached. His mount's pawsteps were slow and deliberate – cautious – his blue eyes staring meekly into his piercing gold ones. Kaidon accepted the large male's nuzzle of affection when he was close enough, burying his beak deep in his fluffy mane, and inhaling the bird's potent, spicy musk. He closed his eyes and sighed with bliss. Night-Wind smelled like home: Familiar, warm, and comforting. Night-Wind could smell his arousal too, purring happily as they rubbed and explored each others delightfully sensitive bodies. _
_ After a couple minutes of this, it was clear Night-Wind wanted more. The creature whimpered and nudged against him plaintively, and Kaidon lifted a hind-leg and let the curious bird duck beneath his crotch and witness his massive erection first-hand. He listened to the horny male whimper with need and inhale his dizzying musk, the gryphon's tongue poking out, and giving his length a big, sloppy lick from base of his shaft, all the way up to the spiny tip. Kaidon shuddered and squeezed his eyes shut, jerking his hips and jamming his cock as far as he could inside the gryphon's warm, welcoming maw. The feeling was incredible, and soon Kaidon was thrusting away, Night-Wind's powerful throat squeezing and milking his throbbing member for all its worth. _
_ The lusty male choked on his girth for quite some time, saliva and other mixed bodily fluids drizzling out the corners of his beak, while Kaidon listened with perverse satisfaction to the lewd sucking noises coming from beneath him. His heavy balls slapped against the underside of Night-Wind's chin each time he slammed forward, full and practically aching to release their fertile contents deep inside the young gryphon's hungry gullet. He controlled the urge to knot with the gryphon's mouth just barely, pulling back and yanking his glistening shaft free from Night-Wind's talented maw, a gush of slimy lubricants splashing all over the ground. Kaidon smirked and licked the gryphon's forehead, nibbling on his ear and urging him to turn around. Night-Wind did as he was told, bending low against the earth and raising his bulky hindquarters into the air, staring back at him and slowly lifting his tail._
_ The sight of the gryphon's soft, pink hole ripe for taking, drove Kaidon practically mad with desire. He snarled and grabbed his mount's muscular haunches, spreading them wide apart and pressing his beak right up against the gryphon's warm taint. He inhaled deeply, sniffing the beast's asshole until his eyes fluttered, and the gryphon's sour musk forced its way straight into his head, corrupting his thoughts until fucking the big slutty male became the only thing that mattered. He pulled back and drove his tongue in next, the brown gryphon shivering with lust and relaxing his sphincter, letting Kaidon lick and kiss every inch of his mount's soft, delicious insides. It was the richest, most intoxicating taste he'd ever had the pleasure of experiencing, and he noisily ate Night-Wind's ass out as if he'd never get the chance to do so again. Kaidon sunk his squirming appendage deep into the gryphon's steaming bowels until he nearly lost his mind, the horny gryphon warbling and keening his pleasure out for all to hear. _
_ By the time he stopped licking, Night-Wind's rump was a sloppy mess of matted fur and feathers, a thin stream of fluid leaking from his quivering anus, and dripping all down his furry testicles. Kaidon wasted no time in mounting the horny gryphon, wrapping his paws around the creature's wide hips, and lining his jutting cock up with the creature's well-lubricated pucker. Night-Wind splayed out his wings to each side, craning his head back and rubbing himself all over Kaidon's cheek ruffs, eager for the hard pounding he knew he was about to receive. Kaidon could barely control himself, grabbing the brown gryphon's nape between his jaws and forcing him to the ground, his penis spurting globs of musky pre all over the bird's hindquarters, permanently marking the greedy little thing as his mate. _
_ He thrust forward, screeching with ecstasy as his black cock-tip spread the gryphon's tender asshole, plunging inside his warm bowels until their balls slapped together almost painfully. Night-Wind's eyes widened at the sensation of having a fully grown male buried inside him at last, his thick cock throbbing with lust and shooting silvery ropes of pre all over the ground below. Kaidon waited for him to adjust to his formidable girth, revelling at the feeling of power and dominance he held over the lusty beast. Night-Wind's virgin anus rippled tightly around his throbbing member, the creature's anal muscles massaging his length as Kaidon forced himself deeper and deeper inside the gryphon's hot, unyielding depths. He licked one of Night-Wind's cheek ruffs possessively, arching his back and rolling his hips, eagerly humping away at the gryphon's big, furry rump. He snarled as he slammed inside the creature's tailhole, gritting his beak as the hot ring of anal flesh clenched down around his rod, the poor avian screeching and begging for him to fuck his ass with all the strength a feral gryphon could muster. Kaidon did just that, ramming his hips forward and plugging the bird's ass full of roasting cock, bursts of pleasure coursing up his spine as he furiously mated with panting male between his legs._
_ It didn't take long for the powerful stench of two gryphon's breeding wildly to fill the air around them. Kaidon could smell every intimate detail of Night-Wind's aroused body … and he couldn't get enough. He loved the scent of the bird's soaking sheathe clogging up his nares … he loved the dark, exotic taste of his musky tailhole that lingered on his tongue, and he especially loved the smell of his slimy cock and balls – so long neglected – that practically begged to spill their load for him. Lewd slopping noises emanated from the gryphon's over-stretched pucker each time he thrust forward, his pre-cum sliding wetly inside the bird's rectum and spilling out the tight seal of their bodies. Night-Wind warbled happily at getting the rough breeding he so deserved, his erection bouncing excitedly against his belly as he pushed back into Kaidon's every thrust._
_ Kaidon knew he wouldn't last much longer. His tongue lolled out as he panted with exertion, drooling everywhere as he fucked the large gryphon as hard as he possibly could. He could feel his knot rapidly swelling with blood, hunching his back and jabbing roughly at the gryphon's exposed hindquarters, trying to cram as much of it inside his mount's battered anus as physically possible. Night-Wind screeched as he bit down hard around the avian's fluffy nape, forcing a powerful shudder to ripple through the male's weakened body. _
_ All at once, he felt his balls tighten up against his sheathe, a low growl of pleasure rolling from his throat. He pulled Night-Wind into his furious thrusts, violently jack-hammering against the gryphon's abused pucker until it finally yielded to his massive knot. Night-Wind whimpered as his sphincter relaxed for the briefest of moments, the tight ring of anal flesh spreading wide open, as Kaidon screeched with triumph, and forced his entire length – knot and all – deep inside the gryphon's ravaged tailhole. He leaned forward and pounded the gryphon's ass in short, quick strokes, the pleasure spiking to blinding levels as his cock-tip mashed repeatedly against the gryphon's sensitive prostrate, and quickly brought both of them to a simultaneous, mind-shattering orgasm._
_ Kaidon howled out as Night-Wind's ass clamped around his knot, the large gryphon whimpering with pleasure as he emptied contents of his balls all over the ground below. Kaidon felt his own member pulse inside the beast's rectum, his eyes rolling up as hot, heavy ropes of fertile cum spurted from his throbbing cock, and splashed inside Night-Wind's quivering anus, quickly filling the shuddering bird full of his creamy ejaculate. Even his knot wasn't able to keep it all inside, warm, excess cum squelching out the bird's over-stuffed hole, and dripping wetly down his legs in a lewd waterfall of semen. Kaidon kept thrusting throughout his climax, feeling whatever remained of his sanity rapidly diminish as he spent himself completely inside his mount's delicious body. _
_ And he didn't even consider stopping. Not even once. _
_ He fucked Night-Wind for what felt like ages, until his mount's belly was swollen with his essence, and the air reeked of their lengthy copulation. Only then did he allow himself to slump onto Night-Wind's back with a satisfied purr … the last dregs of his humanity blissfully slipping away, until his mind became that of a beast, devoid anything akin to the life he once remembered … _
_ _Kaidon woke up screaming.
The moon shone down brightly in the twilight above, millions of tiny stars speckling the night sky and casting everything around him in a warm, silvery glow. He was still in the jungle, lying on a bed of grass drenched in sweat, when the realization dawned on him …
He'd dreamt he'd mated with a gryphon.
He'd dreamt he'd mated with Night-Wind.
His heart froze and he quickly glanced beside him, exhaling with relief when he noticed his mount gone, probably out hunting or relieving himself in the forest. Kaidon rubbed the sand out of his eyes, trying to settle his racing heart and comprehend what in the world had just happened.
His cock was shamefully erect, sticking straight into the air and harder then he'd ever felt it before. He gingerly touched it before flinching back, shaking his head and feeling disgusted with himself. Never in his life had a dream felt so real. He'd dreamt he'd mated with his own gryphon … Night-Wind! Another male! The sense of hurt and confusion was almost too much to bear. But worst of all ...
Part of him had liked it. _Part of him had _enjoyed feeling his mount beneath him, breeding him like a female in heat. Even now, he could still practically smell Night-Wind's thick, musty scent hanging in the air … and even worse … taste him on his breath. He wrinkled his brow and frowned.
'I think I need some water.'
_ _He got up and walked towards the edge of the pond, his cock bouncing up-and-down with each step he took. He stooped near the bank and drank deep from the spring. It tasted cold and refreshing in the crisp night air – sweet almost – like nectar. He splashed some on his face and rubbed his tired eyes, watching the falling drops strike the surface and ripple across the pond. His reflection settled … but with a creeping horror … he realized the face staring back at him was not his own.
It was that of a gryphon.
He shouted and stumbled back, tripping over an exposed root and falling on his ass. He scuttled away, staring in fear where he'd seen the brilliant gold eyes of a gryphon looking back at him. He touched his face to make sure he hadn't sprouted feathers or a beak yet, and was relieved to discover all he felt was skin. Cold, smooth, clammy skin.
'I must be losing my mind.'
After a he'd caught his breath, Kaidon crept towards the edge of the pond, determined to make sure he wasn't going insane. He tentatively peeked into the dark, watery depths – sighing with relief he saw his own reflection staring back at him: Black hair, dark eyes, and a chin marked with stubble. Kaidon pinched himself make sure he wasn't still dreaming, only succeeding in leaving a small, red welt on his arm. He closed his eyes and tried to relax.
Something touched his shoulder.
“Star's Guidance!" He spun around and found himself face-to-face with Night-Wind, his large, handsome gryphon sitting on his haunches and staring at him quietly. Kaidon blushed furiously, instinctively moving to cover up his erection.
“Night-Wind! Don't sneak up on me like that!"
It was then he noticed something very odd. Night-Wind's fuzzy sheathe was swollen and full, the tip of his blood-red cock peeking out, and dribbling a thin stream of pre-cum all over his hefty ballsack. Kaidon's jaw dropped. _'It looks Just like it did in my dream!' _he wondered in astonishment, before realizing he was staring at his mount's crotch and averting his gaze immediately. His face burned with embarrassment, and he wished with all his might Night-Wind would simply lose interest in him and fall asleep, but it was to no avail. Night-Wind cocked his head and gave a soft warble, rustling his massive wings and staring at him intently.
He pointed into the brush. “Go!" he commanded. “Find food! Hunt!"
His mount ignored him and took a step closer.
“Night-Wind … what are you doing?" He reached out and put a hand on the creature's beak, the other one covering his length as he tried to push the curious gryphon away. “Hey! Enough!" he hissed. It didn't work. His mount nudged him onto his back, and Kaidon felt a sense of helplessness wash over him as he was easily over-powered by the stronger animal. Night-Wind buried his face right in his groin, snuffling with excitement as he caught scent of his master's burgeoning manhood hidden just out of sight.
_'Gods help me.' _Kaidon thought. _'I have no idea what this gryphon wants.' _His question was soon answered when the beast's ample cock spilled from its sheathe right above him, its flaccid length hanging limp and covered in slimy juices, a duo of massive testicles swinging freely between its muscular thighs. All at once, the bird's potent musk was completely overwhelming – and before Kaidon could react – Night-Wind squirmed around his hand and chirped with glee, engulfing his exposed cock deep inside his wet, roasting maw.
Kaidon felt his balls tighten up, terrified the gryphon might do the unthinkable and bite down – but instead … Night-Wind began eagerly lapping at his member, licking the underside of his shaft in long, investigative strokes. “N-Nightwind!" he moaned, trying half-heartedly to push the gryphon off him. _“What d-do you t-think you're doing!" _His mount gave looked up and gave a playful look, its blue eyes twinkling mischievously as it suckled on his length.
Kaidon couldn't believe what was happening. His mount was … was … pleasuring him, and it felt … it felt_ good. _He shuddered and collapsed to his elbows, Night-Wind giving a pleased gurgle he was no longer resisting and saddling over-top his body, swallowing his entire cock with a tiny _“urk." _
_ _Kaidon gasped as he felt his girth slide down the gryphon's hot, fleshy throat, Night-Wind's tracheal canal undulating wetly against his shaft in powerful muscular contractions. He whimpered with pleasure. It felt better than anything in the world, and he soon grabbed the gryphon's head-fringe and pulled it in close, thrusting his cock as deep as he could inside the gryphon's wonderfully talented gullet. Night-Wind was more than capable of taking it, its beak yawning open as the beast wrapped its slimy tongue around his shaft and started bobbing up and down, obediently slurping on its master's tasty penis.
Kaidon lasted barely a minute before he squeezed his eyes shut and groaned, his shaft pulsing inside the gryphon's warm mouth. Pleasure exploded all throughout his trembling body, and he watched in disbelief as Night-Wind swallowed ever last drop of his salty ejaculate, the bird ingesting his semen with loud, audible gulps. After a while, the gryphon pulled back and opened wide, catching the remaining spurts on his tongue, cooing happily as his master cummed all over his feathery face. Kaidon panted and twitched with pleasure, unable to comprehend what in the world he was doing.
Eventually, he found the strength to sit upright. Night-Wind busy licking his spent shaft and politely nuzzling his balls, staring at him with a pleased expression. Kaidon was still in shock, but he managed a roguish grin, ruffling his bird's head-fringe and wiping some excess cum off his beak.
“Gods almighty Night-Wind. Where did you learn how to do that?"
The gryphon gave a satisfied _“Wark!" _Staring at him expectantly. _'Maybe we had the same dream.' _Kaidon wondered. _'Is that even possible?' _He noticed his mount's cock was fully erect: A big, bulging mass of flesh covered in dozens of pulsing veins, and decided maybe it wasn't _impossible _either. It looked just like he remembered, the narrow tip peppered in tiny fleshy barbs that looked extremely fun to play with. He blushed despite himself, his own – comparatively smaller penis – twitching to life at the sight of his horny mount proudly displaying his full arousal. Curiosity got the better of him and Kaidon found himself crawling towards the bulky gryphon, Night-Wind raising an eyebrow and cocking its head inquisitively, the shadow of a smirk curling on the edges of its dark beak.
Kaidon stared cross-eyed at Night-Wind's towering cock in-front of him, a big glob of musky pre bubbling from the tip, and trailing down the thick pole of flesh. His mount craned downwards and rubbed all over his face and neck, purring incessantly and saddling up nice and close to him. Kaidon patted his gryphon's flank and looked up at the handsome beast.
“Lie down boy. I'll make you feel good okay? Just this once."
Night-Wind perked up, settling down onto the soft grass and rolling onto his flank. The big gryphon lifted a hind-leg up high into the air, shuffling back-and-forth, and letting his cock and balls flop around loosely. Kaidon whimpered at the sight. The gryphon's thick, masculine scent wafted from his mount's soaking groin, making him want to do all sorts of filthy things to his mount no man should ever think about. He knew it was wrong, he knew there were laws that forbid such lecherous interactions between man and beast. But deep down, he didn't care. This was what his mount wanted. What _he _wanted.
Kaidon reached down and roved his hands through the bird's luxurious brown fur, trailing down his soft treasure-trail, and smiling when the creature squirmed happily on the ground. Night-Wind's body was incredibly warm, his powerful muscles rippling beneath a thick layer of insulating fat, a trait unique only to northern gryphons, whose bodies were far larger and muscular than their lithe, southern cousins. Apparently this trait carried over to their genitals as well, because Kaidon had never seen a bigger cock in his entire life. Night-Wind's shaft was easily a good twelve inches of thick, pulsing gryphon-meat. The twin bulges of his knot not yet fully engorged – but already the size of a clenched fist. He made sure to give the well-hung bird a good belly-rub before they got started, listening rapt to his deep, almost hypnotic vocalizations rumble up his arms, and making him question just who was enjoying themselves more.
_'Night-Wind has always served me loyally.' _Kaidon reasoned. _'If one of us deserves this, it's him.' _His gryphon had never left his side after all these long years – aside to go hunt and mate on occasion. Hunt he did with a brutal efficiency, always bringing back seconds. But mate? _'Maybe he's never had a mate.' _Kaidon realized in shock – gryphon females were notoriously hard to find, and It took a couple seconds for him to finally realize the truth.
_'Maybe he thinks I'm his mate.' _
_ The thought made him freeze stiff, staring at the large gryphon in genuine surprise. Kaidon felt a deep, and powerful connection with his mount all of a sudden, a sincere love from deep inside his heart. All this time he'd never knew … refused to believe it … but now … isolated thousands of leagues from civilization … he realized how blind he'd been. _'Night-Wind loves me, and I've been denying him this whole time!'
He reached out and wrapped his hands around Night-Winds cock, determined to show his mount a good time – laws and boundaries be damned! The gryphon's shaft was firm in his grasp, thick veins pulsing all over it's slimy, engorged surface. He squeezed it, groaning with lust as the bird huffed, and a thick spurt of creamy pre-cum dribbled all over his fingers-tips. He started gently rubbing his mount's twitching rod, Night-Wind lying his head back on the ground and purring with absolute delight.
Kaidon smirked and worked his way down the gryphon's shaft, cupping his hands around his thick, turgid knot, and feeling its immense heat radiate through his palms. He massaged the twin bulbs of flesh, chuckling as the lusty bird crooned and started gently bucking into his grasp, obviously revelling at the long-overdue attention it was finally receiving.
“You like that, don't you boy?" Kaidon whispered into one of the gryphon's tufted ears. Feeling its cock stiffen as soon as the words left his mouth. Night-Wind whimpered and gave an infatuated sigh, arching its back pleading for him to continue touching its sensitive male parts. Kaidon was more than happy to oblige, exploring the gryphon's fat, musky sheathe, and giving the hefty balls dangling beneath them an experimental knead. Gods they truly were heavy! The furry orbs exuded a strong, masculine scent that aroused him greatly, and he knew from their sheer size and density, Night-Wind had hadn't spent his seed in months … years perhaps. He fondled the gryphon's weighty testicles and listened with amusement to the bird's quiet whimpers for more, his big cock spurting juices all over his belly-fur.
Kaidon soon travelled lower still … his heart pounding inside his chest as he traced down his mount's fuzzy taint, and massaged the gryphon's rump. Night-Wind growled with excitement at this, splaying out his tailfeathers, and timidly revealing his dark, succulent tailhole. Kaidon practically swooned at the sight of his mount's soft pucker covered in a thin sheen of pheromone-laden fluid, the scent of his beast's arousal making him wrinkle his brow at how demanding it was. Something made him want to explore all the pleasures such an attractive body could offer … and in a lapse of judgement – he did – pressing a finger right against the gryphon's soft ring of warm, anal flesh.
Night-Wind gave a powerful shudder, the bird's sphincter relaxing as he pushed inside right to the knuckle. He marvelled at how hot it was inside his mount's anus, the gryphon clenching down hard and sucking the digit further into his soft, fleshy abyss. Kaidon groaned, unable to believe he was actually doing something so filthy, yet listening with perverse enjoyment to the wet, sucking noises as he fingered his mount's asshole.
Night-Wind loved every second of it, his eyes rolling up as his as he whimpered for his master to continue, flaring out his wings and shuddering helplessly on the ground. Kaidon withdrew his finger from the beast's rectum and watched it wink shut, a thin trail of slime coating his slender digit. He knew his mount was exceptionally clean from the bath they'd taken earlier, and because of this, he decided to insert an another one, spitting on Night-Wind's quivering tailhole and stuffing two digits inside his mount's steamy bowels. There was something incredibly alluring about masturbating a fully grown male gryphon like this, and Kaidon quickly grabbed the gryphon's towering cock and started jacking him off in tandem.
Between his hand wrapped around Night-Wind's throbbing penis, and his fingers buried deep within its tailhole, the dual stimulation quickly brought his mount to a massive, whimpering orgasm. He felt Night-Wind's ass clamp down around his thrusting digits, the creature's massive balls drawing up towards its sheathe, and its cock going incredibly stiff it readied to blow his load all over them both. Kaidon rubbed his gryphon's shaft in short, fast strokes, globs of pre-cum spurting out the tip and making for an incredibly messy experience. He could tell Night-Wind was about to cum and smothered the gryphon's barbs with the palm of his hand, trying to replicate what hilting inside a female might feel like. Apparently he did something right, because he felt them flare outwards as the bird eyes widened and it started humping wildly into his grasp, screeching with ecstasy and unleashing itself all at once.
Night-Wind sphincter flexed wetly around Kaidon's fingers, the gryphon's cock throbbing violently in his grasp. Thick spurts of semen squirted out the tip and shot several feet into the air, and Kaidon watched in awe as it fell down awe as it splattered all over them both, pulling his fingers from his mount's quivering anus, and proceeding to squeeze them around the bird's swollen knot. Night-Wind's eyes fluttered and rolled up as its master massaged his bulging ball of flesh, coaxing every last drop of semen from its aching balls until they were completely drained.
By the time he was done, Kaidon's arms burned with strain from having been forced to masturbate the lusty gryphon for so long now. Night-Wind whimpered and slumped to the ground, its belly-fur drenched in his sticky emissions, with even more dribbling down its spent shaft and balls. Kaidon couldn't believe how pent up his mount had had been. He too, was covered in a warm layer of steaming jizz, the smell of which was extremely pungent. He smacked his mount on the rump and stuck his fingers inside the gryphon's loosened pucker, giving him a couple rough, playful thrusts, and grinning when the beast warbled faintly with pleasure.
“Star's Guidance. I'd knew you'd make a mess Night-Wind, but that was ridiculous." He wiped some cum off his arms and gave it an investigative lick, smacking his lips and ingesting a mouthful of the slimy fluid. The taste was so strong it made his head spin, but he had to admit was quite enjoyable. He pulled his fingers from his mount's asshole and wiped them clean on his fur, grabbing the gryphon's hefty balls and giving them a squeeze too. Night-Wind wheezed softly.
“Bet that feels much better, doesn't it boy?" He kneaded the gryphon's furry testicles, amazed (and somewhat disappointed) at how much lighter they seemed. The gryphon purred loudly on the ground, rolling onto his back and staring at him with a look of utmost trust and appreciation. Seeing his gryphon in such a state sparked something hungry inside Kaidon, and he suddenly had an incredibly naughty thought:
He wanted to fuck Night-Wind. He wanted to fuck him just like he had in their dream.
Even in his aroused state, Kaidon was forced to consider the implications. Jacking his mount off had been one thing, actually mating with him was something else entirely. The Concordat beheaded people who were rumored to lay with their mounts, but their influence was non-existent out here. Kaidon knew he could get away with it. But he also knew such an act would change their relationship forever. No longer would they be man and beast, rider and mount – but secret lovers, forced to hide their true feelings from the rest of society. Was he ready to accept such a burden? He stared at his mount intensely, deliberating.
It didn't take long for him to come to a decision.
As if reading his mind, Night-Wind rolled over and hiked its ass up into the air, spreading its muscular hind-legs, and lifting its tailfeathers provocatively. The gryphon looked back at back at him and whined, its ears pressed flat against its head, and its eyes shining with need. Kaidon couldn't resist the sight of his mount's tight, pink tailhole – and with a groan of surrender – stood up and climbed atop his mount's raised ass, feeling his cock twitch with arousal at the mere thought of fucking the great beast. Night-Wind crooned and pushed back against him, arching back and shuffling its out-stretched paws, eager for the rough pounding it knew it was about to receive.
Kaidon grabbed Night-Wind's hips, lining his cock up with the creature's anus, and gently pressing the tip of his glans against the gryphon's hot, wet pucker. They both hissed as he eased forward and penetrated the horny beast, gritting his teeth as Night-Wind's supple tailhole spread around his shaft, and he sunk inside the bird's smooth, supple depths.
Night-Wind whimpered beneath him, clenching down hard and shivering around his cock, its powerful muscles rippling all throughout its body, until the young man fully hilted himself inside the large, slutty beast. He groaned, unable believe how tight his mount was! He'd slept with his fare share of concubines in the day, but they all paled in comparison to the feeling of his mount's warm insides squeezing around his cock. He leaned forward and pushed Night-Wind's tail out of the way, thrusting deep inside the bird's eager body, and grunting with pleasure as he fucked the large creature in the ass.
Night-Wind rocked back against him, its sharp claws ripping into the earth as the beast keened out loudly to the night sky, its massive balls slapping heavily against Kaidon's each time their bodies smacked together. It was like the gryphon's ass was meant just for him, Kaidon thought. Flexing and rippling wonderfully around his manhood as they both quickly settled into a rough, comfortable pace. He rammed his length past Night-Wind's tight anal ring over-and-over again, panting as his gryphon let him lean overtop its rump. He explored every inch of the gryphon's sensitive body – inside and out – running his hands through Night-Wind's thick, ruffled fur, and marvelling as the lusty beast moved against him.
“N-Night-Wind." He managed. _“Y-you okay?" _The bird gave a pleased rumble, rolling its hips and making him groan with strain. Kaidon knew he wouldn't last long. His mount's body was too hot and tight, and they'd long passed the point-of-no-return. He was fully intent on claiming Night-Wind.
He grunted and wrapped an arm around the creature's waist, groping the gryphon's sweaty sheathe, and jerking Night-Wind off as he pounded against the feral's ample rump. He could smell Night-Wind's spicy musk force its way into his nostrils as he bred the creature's sloppy tailhole, the bird's penis dribbling all over his finger-tips as the two of them mated at an ever-increasing pace. Sweat covered his body as Kaidon's cock spread the gryphon's anus wide open, his shaft sliding wetly inside the beast's rectum as they both descended into a carnal, lust-fuelled rut. Sticky beads of pre-cum oozed from the tip of his cock, lubricating the gryphon's warm, silken bowels as he worked himself deeper and deeper inside them. Night-Wind huffed and moaned, hunching his back and jerking into his grasp, coaxing the human to fuck him harder each time their bodies collided.
Kaidon snarled and did just that, holding Night-Wind down and shoving his cock beneath the gryphon's tailfeathers, fucking the creature roughly, and pounding repeatedly against the its soft, fleshy prostate. He smirked as Night-Wind cried out and clamped around his length, the gryphon's penis throbbing in his grasp as great, heavy ropes of steaming jizz began spurting out the tip, lancing messily all over the ground beneath them. Kaidon pumped the gryphon's slimy cock throughout its orgasm, Night-Wind's tailhole quivering madly around his length as the human's own climax rapidly drew near.
His last dozen thrusts were the hardest yet, his balls tightening up as he readied to unleash himself inside his mount's guts. His toes dug into the earth as Night-Wind sensed his imminent release and pushed back against him, their balls slapping together as Kaidon leaned forward and grabbed the gryphon's nape in a death-grip.
The pleasure registered in the back of his mind before rippling down his spine in a massive wave of ecstasy, his eyes fluttering as he felt his cock pulse rhythmically inside his beast's hot tailhole. He filled his mount's bowels full of warm, sticky cum, the pleasure so great, he was left weak and trembling, twitching uncontrollably as he emptied himself inside Night-Wind's receptive body. His mount crooned with delight at being fucked by his long-time master, wriggling its rump and kneading the ground with its large paws.
Kaidon gave a few quick, jerky thrusts to wrap things up, his shaft squelching lewdly inside his gryphon's anus, and covered in a sticky mildew of saliva, jizz, and other mixed bodily fluids that trickled from Night-Wind's abused pucker. Once the body-wracking throbs subsided, he whimpered and collapsed on-top of his mount, both of them panting heavily as they recovered from their furious romp.
He leaned down and ruffled his mount's head fringe_. “Wow. I guess that means you're mine now." _he growled playfully in the bird's tufted ear. Night-Wind rubbed against him and wheezed softly, flagging its tail and stretching its paws out along the ground, looking back and giving a weak, yet satisfied warble of pleasure. Kaidon smiled, savouring the feeling of his mount's soft fur brushing against his skin, and its innards massaging his spent cock still buried in the creature's asshole. A warm glow permeated his entire body, and he revelled in the pleasurable sensations coursing through him.
'I can't believe I just mated with my own gryphon!' Oddly enough, the realization didn't disturb him as much as he imagined it would. The deed was done, and Night-Wind had loved it. Perhaps that was all that mattered.
He suddenly very tired all of a sudden, the events of the evening finally catching up with him. He patted his mount on the rump and gradually pulled out, groaning as Night-Wind tensed, and his softening cock slipped free from the gryphon's stretched pucker with a wet slup. He took a step back and admired his handy-work, grinning at the sight of the sticky white mess he'd left leaking from his mount's hole, and the lingering scent of male arousal that clung in the air. He lay down on the grass and stared up at the night sky in awe, Night-Wind licking himself clean and curling up in a ball beside him, gazing at him with a sleepy look. Kaidon scratched his mount behind the ear and whispered sweet nothings until the cat gave a great, big, yawn and fell asleep, its deep, rumbling breaths gradually lulling him to do the same.
Kaidon closed his eyes and smiled to himself, thinking about everything that had happened between them, and all that was to surely to come. Darkness took him at last. A deep, dreamless slumber.
***
When he awoke, Kaidon was shocked to discover it was still night-time. Thousands of stars twinkled in the sky above, as numerous and unfamiliar as they'd been yesterday. The Bright Star had yet to make an appearance, and the fact it was still missing disturbed him greatly. It was as if no time had passed at all since the moment he had set foot in these strange, exotic lands. He sat upright and stretched his limbs, glancing beside him and noticing Night-Wind had disappeared too. He stared up at the sky and rubbed his eyes. How in the world was It still dark out? Surely he'd slept for more than a couple hours … it must be mid-day by now …
The memories from last night gradually came flooding back, and all Kaidon could do was shake his head and sigh in shame. 'What the hell have you done?' _he asked himself. _'What's wrong with you Kaidon?'
_ He'd mated with Night-Wind. His mount, and things would be much different between them now. He sniffed his chest and could only smell the pungent, musky scent of his gryphon. _'What the hell happened last night?' He thought with a frown. It felt like a dream. At first it had been nothing but an innocent bout of fun between a rider and his gryphon … just two creatures letting off some steam after a long, arduous journey … but now … Now it was so much more then that.
He'd mated with a gryphon, and only the gods knew what consequences that might carry. He cursed silently and clenched his fists in the grass. _'What in End were you thinking Kaidon? You lost control." _
_ _He stood up and angrily dusted himself off, looking around for his clothes. The lush jungle surrounded him on all sides, dark and menacing at night, and distinctly less enjoyable without a massive gryphon lounging at his side. Strange sounds crackled in the distance, separated by long moments of eerie silence that made a shiver roll up his spine. The wind rustled lazily through the canopy above, refreshingly cool amidst the humid wetness of the jungle. “Where are my clothes?" he asked with a gulp.
In fact, where was anything? Kaidon spun around, trying to figure out where he was. The pond was no where in sight. _'Where in the world am I?' _he thought with a jolt of fear. _'I must have wandered into the brush.' _After everything that had happened tonight, sleep-walking certainly wasn't out of the question. He took a deep breath to settle his nerves, feeling particularly exposed standing in the middle of a dense jungle absolutely naked. Surprisingly – and much to his relief – there were hardly any insects. He'd not been stung once since the moment they'd arrived here. He spotted a distinct part in the foliage to his right and started walking towards it, sighing with relief when he found the faint trail he recognized from earlier. He kept a sharp eye out for any sudden movement, trying not to jump at every strange noise the jungle made as he carefully made his way back towards the pond.
He walked for a couple minutes, the tall, leafy plants lining the path gliding wetly off his skin. He kept an arm outstretched to protect his face, ducking around shrubs and treading carefully through the lush, fertile thicket. Perhaps he was over-thinking things, he wondered. Perhaps Night-Wind wouldn't treat him any differently after what had happened between them. Maybe they'd go back to the way things used to be, living their simple lives day-by-day. Normal, platonic, and boring. As much as he hated to admit it, last night was the most fun he'd had in ages. Not since his youth had he ever felt such powerful emotions before, and just the thought of seeing his mount against made his loins stir with heat. He clenched his teeth, feeling ashamed at his inability to control such primal urges. He felt like an animal for taking advantage of his mount like that, and maybe Night-Wind would see him as one … as an equal … or perhaps lesser still. Gryphons were highly intelligent beasts. Maybe Night-Wind come to resent him after what he'd done.
Maybe he'd come to _hate _him.
Kaidon swallowed uncomfortably. 'No. that's impossible. Night-Wind loves me. He was the one who started it good Gods! He came onto me!'
_ But _he was the one that had went through with it. He was the one who'd forced his gryphon down and mounted him roughly. He was the one who'd fingered his tailhole, fondled his balls, and touched his beastly member. Kaidon closed his eyes and sighed. He needed to find Night-Wind and apologize. He needed to set things right before it was too late. Before he ruined the trust they'd built over all these long years. Figuring out how to do such a thing was something else entirely, and Kaidon eagerly pushed the subject to the back of his mind. It was useless dwelling on negative thoughts. He'd trust in his heart to say the right thing. He always had.
The leaves parted aside as Kaidon finally stumbled into the pond's expansive clearing. Moonlight shone down across the fresh pool of water in-front of him, the night sky reflecting brilliantly upon the spring's calm, liquid surface. Kaidon couldn't believe how beautiful it looked. The tall grass swayed gently in the breeze all around him, a faint mist hanging low to the earth, and meandering lazily across the large body of water. It was such a mesmerizing sight, Kaidon almost thought it couldn't be real, but he knew he wasn't dreaming. Not anymore.
His breath caught as he spotted Night-Wind sitting by the edge of the pond. The large avian was facing away from him, resting on his haunches and gazing into the watery depths of the embankment. Its body was a dark shadow outlined by the moon all around him, and Kaidon froze in his tracks at the breathtaking sight. For once in his life, he didn't know what to do. Night-Wind seemed transfixed by something, and Kaidon stood on his toes as he tried to see whatever his mount was looking at in the water. He didn't have a good enough angle and took a step closer.
“Night-Wind?" He croaked. His voice was coarse and rough after the sand-storm. Weak – yet uncomfortably loud in the lingering silence of the expansive clearing. The gryphon remained stock-still, staring deep into the misty waters in-front of him, its ears pulling back as if it were annoyed by the sudden, unpleasant noise. Kaidon frowned and came up beside his mount, reaching out to put his hand on the beast's flank. He stopped short at the last second.
There was something wrong with Night-Wind's eyes in the pond's reflection. They looked … they looked vacant. He needed a closer look … “Hey … Night-Wind." he whispered, his voice quavering with uncertainty. He gently touched the creature's back.
It was the wrong thing to do.
Night-Wind's hackles shot up and he whirled about, hissing right in his face. It wasn't the normal, threatening hiss he'd become accustomed to, like when an unwary passerby strayed too close in the city market, or when he plucked a rogue pinfeather from the beast's rump, but a full-on, ear's-pulled-back, menacing snarl of rage.
Kaidon flinched as spittle flew from the gryphon's wickedly sharp beak and flecked all over his face, the young human shouting with fear and falling onto the grass, quickly scuttling away from the terrifying beast. Night-Wind's posture was slouched and predatory, its beak curling into a low growl as it prowled over and slammed a massive paw on hid chest, pinning the smaller male against the earth.
Kaidon gasped, grappling the gryphon's forepaw and trying to push it off. It was no use, Night-Wind was immensely strong, and he could do nothing except gaze upon the creature's horrifying visage. Now he understood why Night-Wind looked so deranged. His gray, inner-eye film – usually reserved for flying or sleeping – was pulled across both retinas, giving the beast an alien, monstrous look that was completely unfamiliar to him. The gryphon leaned down and sniffed at his neck, its hot, rank breath washing over him as he inhaled the bird's masculine stench and recoiled back. Night-Wind had been hunting recently, he could smell the scent of a fresh kill upon him. This only served to frighten him more.
_“Night-Wind!" _he wheezed. _“Wake up! It's me … Kaidon! What ... what are you d-doing?" _Night-Wind cocked its head and stared at him with its dead, milky-gray eyes, its ears flitting foward with minor interest. Kaidon realized his mount was deciding whether or not to kill him, and he knew he had to act.
_ “It's me Night-Wind … Kaidon!" _The sound of his voice seemed to have some effect on the great beast, because Night-Wind's expression slackened for the briefest moment. Kaidon felt a glimmer of hope and struggled with all his might, accidentally kicking his mount straight in the gut. He froze in terror as Night-Wind grunted with surprise and snarled in his face, the gryphon's inner-eyelids flicking away to reveal two deep, angry, piercing blue irises. Night-Wind's claws pricked his chest as the creature realized had something in his clutches, bending down, twisting his head, and staring at Kaidon intently. He watched as one of Night-Wind's massive pupils dilated into a tiny pinpoint and raked over his body, the bird snuffling against him a couple more times, before rumbling, and giving his cheek a long, extended lick.
Kaidon flinched back at the sloppy embrace, then breathed a sigh of relief. “That's it Night-Wind." he chuckled nervously. “About time you woke up. Nice gryphon." He patted the bird's massive paw comfortingly. _'Please … please don't kill me.' _he thought inwardly.
Night-Wind purred and rubbed against him for a couple minutes, kneading his chest and delighted at finding his master trapped beneath his paws. If Kaidon had any concerns about his mount resenting him after last night, such notions were quickly dismissed. He tried to roll out from underneath the huge gryphon, but Night-Wind wouldn't let him go, playfully batting him back-and-forth with his large paws. Kaidon grinned and struggled amicably for a little but, but quickly grew fatigued at being constantly overpowered by the curious beast. He placed a hand on his gryphon's chest as a signal to stop.
“Alright Night-Wind, that's enough. I'm glad to see you too. Now let me up."
Night-Wind beamed down at him, his crest of flaring straight out with excitement. The gryphon chirped and nuzzled against his chest, engulfing the small human in his fluffy mane of feathers and nibbling on his collarbone. Kaidon groaned, completely smothered in the bird's thick, musty coat of fluff. His mount usually never behaved like this, and he assumed the lack of respect was a direct result of their romp last night. Perhaps he needed to be stricter before things got even more out of control. Night-Wind was the mount, and he was the master. Not the other way around.
“Night-Wind! _Stop! _he shouted. Kaidon got his hand on the gryphon's beak and shoved it as hard as he could, pushing the gryphon back just enough for him to break free. He rolled out from underneath the creature's body and quickly got to his feet, staring angrily at his mount. “When I say stop, you stop. Understand?"
Night-Wind looked completely insulted, slouching his shoulders and glaring back at him. Kaidon felt a distinct sinking feeling in his gut as the gryphon began pacing back-and-forth, a tiny snarl curling on its dark beak. Kaidon frowned. That wasn't a good sign. Night-Wind usually wilted when he was being scolded, tail between his legs, ears pulled back, and whimpering and whining for forgiveness. He couldn't let his mount misbehave like this. A good rider demanded utmost respect from his beast at all times, no matter what!
Kaidon reached out to grab the large avian around the nape, as a mother would do to a reprimand a young hatchling, but Night-Wind's hackles raised defensively in-response, the creature dropping into a low crouch as its snarl intensified.
Kaidon hesitated, his arm dropping limply to his side. He broke out in a cold sweat. That wasn't good. That wasn't good at all.
“Uh-oh."
The massive avian launched itself at him in an explosion of muscle and feathers, it's wings spread wide apart, blotting out the moon above. A dark shadow loom over him, Night-Wind's paws slamming into his chest, and driving him hard to the ground. He grunted as the massive bird pinned him against the tall grass, growling in his face as its piercing blue eyes dilated and raked over his exposed body. He struggled furiously but couldn't move, held down by the gryphon's gigantic forepaws.
_“Night-Wind!" _he wheezed. _“Get the hell off me!" _He reached up to smother the gryphon's face, but the large creature batted his arm aside and held that down too. His eyes narrowed with rage. He couldn't surrender, not after all they'd been through. He'd lose years and years of training if he lost to his beast now. He balled his hand into a fist and lashed out, striking his mount once on the side of the head. He struck hard and fast, hoping the creature would be too startled to react. The beast was startled all right, but it didn't have the effect he was hoping for. Night-Wind shook the hit off and roared right in his face, roared so loud and dominantly, Kaidon shirked back, closed his eyes, and whimpered with fear. He was completely deaf and blind, and knew with utmost certainty his life was about to end. He always knew Night-Wind was a wild, feral beast. He always knew he could never fully tame him. But he never expected it to end like this. Had he known, he would have finished Night-Wind off all those years ago when he'd stumbled upon him weak and injured in the canyon, his wing too mangled to escape, and his belly aching for food. He would have fired an arrow straight through his heart, killing him instantly, and sold his pelt in some foreign market. He would have made a small fortune that day, but he hadn't. Instead, looking into the creature's eyes, he'd made a choice.
The wrong choice.
_“Night-Wind … please." _he whimpered pitifully, waiting for the gryphon's beak to close around his neck and bite into his soft flesh. Waiting for the inconceivable amount of perfectly applied force to snap it clean in two, or strangle the air from his very lungs. He waited, as hot, humid breath washed across his cheek, and dampened his skin … one second passed … two … and still, nothing happened.
He opened his eyes. “N-Night-wind?"
_ _The gryphon was poised dominantly above him, panting, and looking down at him with it's sharp, eagle-like stare. He couldn't believe he was still alive. His mount had decided to spare his life … for now.
“Night-Wind?" he whimpered again. Kaidon felt something hot and wet smear against his abdomen, groaning when he noticed his mount's cock was fully erect and dribbling pre-cum all over his belly. “S-star's Guidance!" he stammered, looking back at the gryphon's cool, piercing stare. “W-what a-re you d-doing Night-Wind?" The gryphon cocked its head and purred softly in response, positioning itself over-top of him, and jabbing its hips towards his face. Kaidon went pale at the sight of his mount's beastly genitals swaying back-and-forth, trying to crawl away, but a threatening growl quickly stopped him in his tracks. He swallowed and looked up into his beast's eyes. Suddenly, he understood. He understood everything now.
Night-Wind wanted to mate with him.
It was exactly what he feared most. “No." he croaked, holding his hands up in submission. “Not like this Night-Wind … please." The gryphon's gaze hardened, it's ears flicking down for a moment as if it were deciding what to do with him. The male came to decision faster than he liked. Fixing its eyes upon him and indicating with a flick of its head towards the dripping phallus dangling between its legs. Kaidon swallowed uncomfortably. Night-Wind wanted to be pleasured, and he had a feeling the beast wouldn't take no for an answer.
He stared at the towering spire of bulging flesh right in-front of him, licking his lips without even thinking about it. Night-Wind hunched its hips and jerked towards his face, the gryphon's massive set of testicles swinging freely beneath its sheathe, and smelling strongly of male sex. Kaidon knew he didn't have a choice. Night-Wind would get what he wanted, whether he was a willing participant or not.
He reached up tentatively – his hands trembling – and grasped the gryphon's slimy, pulsing shaft in both hands. Night-Wind growled and thrust into his grasp, its thick cock throbbing beneath his fingers, and unleashing a spurt of watery pre-cum directly onto the human's bare chest. Kaidon shivered. It was hot, very hot. Everything about his gryphon's body was hot, from his soft, fleshy sheathe squelching in his grasp, to the rich, masculine stench wafting from the beast's sweaty loins. Kaidon had a sudden urge to worship his mount's body the likes he'd never experienced before, a hidden desire long-thought repressed. Night-Wind stared down at him with a pleased look, his eyes sparkling devilishly and his chest proudly puffed out. Before he could even react, the bird placed a heavy talon on his shoulder and yanked him in close.
Kaidon yelped, Night-Wind's cock sliding wetly off his right cheek before he was suddenly buried in the gryphon's warm, soaking crotch. He felt his face mash right up against the gryphon's feathery sheathe, the smell of sweat, cum, and sex almost immediately overwhelming his senses. Kaidon felt his eyes flutter up as he was inhaled deep lungfuls of the gryphon's thick masculine stench, his own cock twitching to life as some sick, twisted part inside him actually enjoyed the thought of being dominated by his lusty mount like so. That was when he truly lost it. When he fully surrendered himself to the creature's hedonistic will, and decided he was willing to do whatever it took to sate Night-Wind's ever-growing needs, even if it meant abandoning all moral reason.
He reached up and fondled the gryphon's dangling orbs, amazed at their size and fullness. Even though Night-Wind had spent his seed not hours ago, they were still plump and full with a fresh batch of potential hatchlings. Night-Wind thrust towards his face again, the tip of his barbed shaft pressing impatiently against the man's lips and bubbling pre-cum all over them. Kaidon spluttered and recoiled back at the strong taste of his beast's emissions, hastily grabbing the base of the avian's shaft, and trying to re-gain some semblance of control over the horny creature. Night-Wind growled and humped into his grasp, jostling his body back-and-forth as the bird's cock slid repeatedly between his fingers-tips. He quickly realized he wasn't in control, and probably never would be in control ever again.
Kaidon was at Night-Wind's mercy, the beast's veiny length somehow even bigger than he last remembered, and growing more firm in his hands with each passing second. He rubbed the gryphon's shaft, coaxing it from its furry sheathe with carefully timed squeezes and tugs, until eventually the gryphon's maleness was harder than stone, and jutting fiercely between its thighs. His eyes widened at the sight. The base of Night-Wind's shaft was swollen a tiny amount, but not yet fully engorged with blood, the barbed tip pointing ominously towards his face.
Kaidon knew his hands wouldn't be enough. He knew his mount had more stamina than that, and his eyes watered at the overpowering stench of another male waiting to be served. He knew without a doubt in the world, he would have to use his mouth, because Night-Wind willed it so, and he had no choice but to obey.
The gryphon shuffled above him and hunched its hips, Kaidon guiding the towering spire of pulsing gryphon-flesh directly inside his waiting mouth. Night-Wind hissed as he wrapped lips around the bird's penis, feeling the barbs stiffen inside his tight, oral cavity, and the size of its tapered head completely fill the entirety of his mouth. Kaidon nearly chocked on the first spurt of heady ejaculate that oozed across his tongue, his mind reeling at the mind-numbingly strong taste of the gryphon's salty emissions, before being forced to swallow it all with a single, disgusted gulp. He felt the slimy substance roll down his throat, a blossoming warmth suddenly spreading all throughout his body as he ingested the creature's sperm-rich pre-cum. It actually tasted good. He moaned as he took on more of his gryphon's shaft, sucking and gagging against the massive pole of flesh as Night-Wind bucked against his face, the gryphon's swollen testicles slapping heavily against his chin each time it thrust into his mouth.
Night-Wind soon wanted more, and he whimpered as the gryphon managed to cram half its length inside his gaping maw, his eyes rolling up as Night-Wind's cock stretched his mouth wide open, and slid ungracefully down his throat. He gurgled as the beast started humping away, his face buried in Night-Wind's soaking sheathe as the scent of a fully-aroused male gryphon clogged up his nostrils. He grabbed Night-Wind's burgeoning knot and massaged it between the palms of his hands, listening to the avian's noisy chirps of pleasure as it used his mouth like a warm pussy, ramming its length down his gullet over-and-over again until he thought he'd surely pass out. Kaidon did everything in his power to keep the gryphon from knotting with his mouth, feeling the thick ball of flesh swell beneath his fingers as hot blood pumped inside the bird's loins.
He pulled the gryphon's slimy shaft from his mouth and gasped for breath, thick strings of saliva dangling off the gryphon's throbbing member and snapping all over his neck. Already he felt exhausted, but he knew he couldn't give up now, not when his mount was so close. He groaned as the gryphon jabbed at his lips, the tip of its cock squirting globs of pre-cum all over his body.
“Night-Wind, please." _he whimpered miserably, wiping it off. _“Give me a second here."
_ The large avian ignored his plea, placing a paw on the back of his head and forcing him down again. Kaidon whimpering in defeat as his face mashed against the gryphon's soft, fuzzy ballsack. He gasped for air, each breath he took rich and pungent with the beast's sour musk. He obediently started lapping at the gryphon's dripping cock, sloppily making-out with its pulsing urethra as if he were kissing a fair maiden back in the Kingdom. The taste was ungodly here, thick spurts of warm bird-juice dribbling all over his tongue as he ingested it straight from the source. _'Please' _he thought desperately. _'Just finish inside my mouth Night-Wind, make it quick.'
_ _His prayers went unanswered. Night-Wind seemed keen on taking his sweet, sweet time, chirping and growling happily as the human buried between his legs worshipped his mighty shaft. Kaidon accepted the well-endowed avian inside his mouth once more, wrapping his hands around the gryphon's turgid knot and squeezing it tight. Night-Wind growled with lust, the bird increasing the speed of its thrusts as it carefully bred his mouth at a slow, deliberate pace, careful not to injure him, but not letting him get too comfortable either.
Kaidon worked his tongue over the gryphon's cock for quite some time, listening to the wet, smacking noises emanate from his lips as the creature filled his mouth with its throbbing meat. Night-Wind gazed down at him with a sharp, satisfied look on its face, raising a hind-leg, and letting him indulge upon its exotic member. Kaidon gave each barb covering Night-Wind's tapered glans his undivided attention, slathering all over the beast's maleness, and sticking his tongue deep inside its sensitive urethera, eager to be used as a receptacle for his mount's fertile seed. Night-Wind huffed and panted heavily above him, the beast's thrusts becoming rough and jerky as its climax drew near.
Kaidon steadied himself against one of Night-Wind's muscular legs, jacking the beast off until its twin orbs dangling in his face drew tight against its sheathe. Night-Wind gave a number of hard thrusts into his mouth, leaving him gasping and choking for breath as the gryphon's crotch slammed repeatedly against his face. Saliva and lots of pre-cum drooled from the corners of his lips. He knew what was coming, but he wasn't prepared for it. Night-Wind's claws dug into the earth. The beast snarling with pleasure as it rammed forward, and forced its entire length deep into the back of his throat in one, firm motion.
Kaidon gagged, his eyes watering profusely and his jaw singing with pain. He tried to pull back but couldn't. Night-Wind had knotted with his mouth, and he couldn't break free. He reached up and cupped his hands desperately around the bird's massive twin bulbs of flesh, simulating a tie as the feral beast twitched violently above him, and the taste of its smoky cock was simply all he knew.
The light touch was enough to send the creature right over the edge, its cock twitching powerfully inside his mouth, as the first goopy rope of fertile gryphon-cum splashed against the back of his throat, and spilled down his gullet in a warm, greasy wave. He swallowed as much as he could with a noisy shudder, feeling the warm breeding-juice squelch down his trachea and pool thickly inside his belly. He swallowed again, then quickly realized the bird's copious release would be way too much to handle.
With immense effort, he yanked himself off the pulsing rod, choking and coughing up thick rivulets of the bird's slimy ejaculate. The next spurt caught him directly in face, Night-Wind jerking into his grasp as it drained the pent-up contents of its balls all over his naked body. He actually felt the creamy fluid travel down the beast's throbbing cock in powerful, undulating waves. Hot, messy ropes of spunk squirting out Night-Wind's pulsing urethera, and lancing messily across his face and neck. The stench was unlike anything he'd ever experienced before. Thick, fresh, and pungent, and so very unique. He blushed deeply as Night-Wind spent its load all over him, the beast marking him permanently as its mate for life. There was no way this stuff was ever washing out, and Kaidon knew he'd reek of his beast for years to come, possibly forever if he continued being used like this.
Kaidon's wrapped his lips around the tip of the gryphon's slimy cock, sucking out the last few meager spurts of jizz, and fondling the creature's balls. Night-Wind rumbled happily and pawed at the ground, shuffling back-and-forth as if pleased by his services. Kaidon buried his face in Night-Wind's sloppy groin and lapped at the dripping mess that was left there, doing his best to lick the bird's shaft clean of excess fluids. He did a terrible job, succeeding more at smearing warm jizz all over his face and neck, until he was absolutely drenched in layers of the bird's steaming cum.
When he'd finally caught his breath, Kaidon looked up submissively at Night-Wind, his cock painfully hard after such a furious bout of oral sex with the horny creature. His mount stared at him with that sharp, predatory stare he was growing more-and-more accustomed to with each passing second, cocking its head and inspecting the white mess it had left leaking all over his body. The creature leaned down and sniffed at his face, obviously pleased its scent masked his boring, human one. Kaidon reached up and scratched the gryphon's cheek-ruffs, smiling weakly at the exchange in power that had occurred between them. He should have felt disgusted with himself for being so weak-willed and spineless, but all he felt was a glowing sense of warmth spreading deep inside his belly. He was no longer the master in this relationship, of that there was little doubt. The thought excited him more than he'd like to admit.
Night-Wind nuzzled against him appreciatively for a couple minutes, before pulling back and poking him with its beak. Kaidon noticed his mount's cock was still rock-hard, and he should have known one simple orgasm wouldn't be enough to tire his beast out. _'Maybe gryphons can last forever.' _he thought to himself, reaching up to grab the bird's massive penis dangling in-front of him. Night-Wind chirped in protest and nipped at his hand, its gaze hot and penetrating.
Kaidon's eyes shone with fear. “W-what did I do?" he whimpered. “A-aren't you h-happy Night-Wind?" The only answer he got was a firm, yet measured shove from the powerful gryphon above, Night-Wind easily rolling him onto his belly with a powerful swipe of its paws. Kaidon pushed himself onto his elbows and tried to get away, but his mount was over-top him in an instant, pushing his hips into the air, and mounting his ass roughly. Kaidon struggled with all his might, but Night-Wind's paws were planted right beside his head, preventing any chance of escape. 'Oh no.' _he thought, feeling the gryphon's soft feathers slide across his back. _'Please … no no no.'
_ _Night-Wind purred deeply and licked the base of his neck all the way up to his earlobe, the small human flinching at the rough, sloppy caress. He felt the gryphon's muscular body surrounding him on all sides, powerful and unyielding, yet not unjustly so. As strong as Night-Wind was, Kaidon could tell the creature wasn't trying to hurt him. Its motions were gentle and caring, and he knew his mount wanted to mate with him as if he were a female of its own kind. The thought was both terrifying, yet incredibly alluring at the same time. Night-Wind loved him, and with a grim acceptance, Kaidon finally began to accept his fate:
He was going to be bred by Night-Wind. His mount. He was going to be fucked by a gryphon, and there was nothing he could do about it.
Night-Wind hunched its hips and grinded its massive cock against his rear, wrapping its muscular fore-legs around his slender midriff, and hugging him tight. Kaidon sunk into the bird's luxuriously warm fur, feeling its rumbling vocalizations travel throughout his navel as the creature tottered back-and-forth and adjusted to his considerably smaller frame. He grit his teeth as Night-Wind prodded his asshole a few times with its thick, pointy feline dick, seeking his entrance and dribbling pre-cum all over his clenched pucker, getting him nice and ready for a long, hard, vigorous pounding.
Night-Wind growled and rolled its hips, lodging the tip of its cock between the human's smooth cheeks and thrusting forward. Kaidon squeezed his eyes shut and hissed with pain as his asshole was stretched around the first few inches of the avian's shaft, the soft barbs digging into his flesh and sliding deep into his rectum. Gods above Night-Wind was huge! He gasped for breath and dug his nails into the earth as the massive gryphon penetrated him with some difficulty, sinking its cock deep inside his warm bowels and snarling with bliss.
Kaidon wasn't ready and cried out, his chin buried in the dirt as he did his best to relax his sphincter for the massive gryphon lying across his back. The agony was almost unbearable. Hot, stinging jolts of pain searing through his ass each time the big male rocked forward, and forced more of its bulging length inside him. Night-Wind rubbed against the side of his face apologetically, purring softly and nibbling on his ear as if to soothe the small human trapped between its legs. Kaidon knew he had to be strong, or else his mount would never respect him again. But he also knew he wouldn't be able to take another second of large avian lying across his back. The pain was almost too much to bear.
As if reading his mind, Night-Wind withdrew its cock from his asshole, the stiff barbs lining its shaft tugging on Kaidon's inner-flesh, before popping free with a gush of slimy lubricants. Kaidon breathed a huge sigh of relief, the gryphon shuffling its hips and lowering itself along the curve of his spine, satisfied he'd been able to take its length without passing out. Night-Wind allowed him a few seconds to catch his breath, re-aligning its cock with his quivering hole, and licking the side of his cheek reassuringly. The gentle caress was all it took for Kaidon to fully submit himself to the male's lusty needs. His insides felt cold and empty without Night-Wind's cock filling him up, almost like a crucial piece of him had been missing all this time.
Kaidon furrowed his brow at these strange new urges and pushed back into the bird's soaking groin, grinding his ass against the creature's hot spire of throbbing flesh, and feeling it spurt warm fluids all down the small of his back. “C'mon Night-Wind." he mumbled through clenched teeth. “Take me. Fuck me like a gryphon … fuck me just like you've always wanted." He blushed as the large male growled and pushed the tip of its cock against his hot ring of flesh, pinning him down and slowly sinking inside him.
Kaidon moaned as his anus was spread open to accept the avian's shaft once more. Night-Wind seemed more confident now that it knew how much he could handle, burying its slimy cock inside his innards, and filling him up completely. It didn't hurt so much this time, but Kaidon still grunted as the beast's formidable girth threatened to split him in two. He could feel it deep within the darkest recesses of his body: A massive pole of slick, pulsing flesh. Thick, hard, and radiating heat. It was unlike anything he'd ever experienced before, and Kaidon struggled to catch his breath as Night-Wind bumped its massive knot against the entrance to his body, chirping with disappointment that it wasn't able to fit that in too.
With a mighty tug, Night-Wind jerked forward and rolled its hips, gripping his waist and pulling him into its first couple of tentative thrusts. Kaidon shivered with pleasure as Night-Wind's cock slid wetly inside his man-tunnel, the copious amounts of saliva and pre-cum coating its length squelching noisily around the rim of his asshole, and dribbling down his hairy taint. Night-Wind growled with lust as its knot pressed against his loosened pucker, the human's smooth insides clenching down hard and massaging the bird's invasive member each time it thrust inside him. Kaidon could feel every barb covering Night-Wind's penis dig into his warm, inner-flesh, stimulating his body as the creature stretched him out, and drenched his innards in a warm, sticky mildew of musky fluids.
Gods above it felt amazing. Kaidon dropped to his elbows and hiked his ass up, groaning as Night-Wind wrapped its forepaws around his belly, and started pounding against his ass hard and fast. He listened to the wet, slapping noises coming from behind him as the gryphon's massive set of heavy balls smacked against his own each time their bodies collided, a grim reminder of just how small and insignificant he was when compared to the mighty beast lying across his back. In fact, Kaidon felt absolutely diminutive next to his mount, Night-Wind's muscles rippling powerfully as it hunched its back, spread him open, and rammed its cock deep inside his anus. He panted like a bitch in heat as he was bred roughly by the massive gryphon above him, grabbing the creature's forepaws, and holding on for dear life as the beast claimed his body at last.
“G-gods Night-Wind! T-take it e-easy!" he whimpered. A quick, painful nip quickly silenced him as the beast increased the speed of its thrusts, breeding the small human between its legs with deep, powerful strokes. Kaidon screwed his eyes shut and bit his lower-lip, squeezing his anal muscles around the avian's fat cock, and feeling it ram through his bowels over-and-over again. His legs felt numb, his arms too, but his shaft throbbed with delight at the sensation of a large gryphon dominating his body so thoroughly, globs of pre-cum squirting out the tip as it slapped against his belly each time Night-Wind thrust inside him. He grunted as the beast panted in his ear, its hot, humid breath blowing across his cheek, while lush fur enveloped his entire body in a delicious cocoon of warmth. The creature pounded against his rump non-stop, making Kaidon cry out in pain … and more than a little pleasure. There was no doubt in his mind he'd be walking funny for a long time after the beast had its way with him, and considering how much stamina he knew it possessed, that wouldn't be any time soon.
He was right. Night-Wind fucked him for the better part of an hour, perhaps even longer – because eventually – he lost all track of time. Kaidon's world was subsumed by that of the gryphon's: A non-stop crescendo of pleasurable sensations that completely overwhelmed any sense of self-worth he once had. He was no longer a man, but his mount's bitch, destined to be forever mounted and claimed by it whenever it so desired … and he didn't want it any other way.
He belonged to Night-Wind now.
Kaidon begged for the gryphon to fuck him, pushing back into its hungry thrusts, and feeling its knot slam against his abused sphincter until he felt certain it would fit at some point. Night-Wind's thick, masculine scent clung to his sweat-soaked skin each time it rutted against his body, clouding his head, and filling his thoughts with images of his belly swelling with the beast's fertile release, a release that would finally secure his place as Night-Wind's new, submissive little breeding-bitch.
Kaidon moaned weakly as his anus quivered and clamped down around Night-Wind's shaft, ecstasy coursing through his body as his cock spurt frantically between his legs, streaking the grass beneath him with his wasted seed. The gryphon could smell his body's final submission, snarling, hugging him tight and breeding him with short, brutal thrusts, its barbed tip mashing violently against Kaidon's prostrate, and milking every last drop of cum out of the man's aching balls.
Kaidon shouted to the heavens. Screamed Night-Wind's name for all to hear, even though they were stranded hundreds of miles from civilization. He didn't care. He wanted to let the world know he was Night-Wind's lover, and there was nothing anyone could do that would ever change that.
His mate was close. The gryphon was practically feral with lust, its beak curling up into a snarl as it slammed against him in a frightening blur of speed. Kaidon whimpered, the stench of male sex hanging heavily in the air as he gasped and choked for breath between the bird's vicious thrusts. Night-Wind lay across his back and fucked him harder than he ever thought possible, fully intent on jamming its knot inside his battered asshole. Kaidon's anus stretched wider and wider each time their bodies collided, the gryphon humping furiously as it bit down on his neck in a mating bite and forced him to the ground, rutting him with quick, ferocious thrusts.
Kaidon screwed his eyes shut and moaned as the bird's swollen knot grinded against his rear. The gryphon thrust forward hard, the thick ball of flesh reaching its widest point, and stretching him open uncomfortably. On the next, it popped inside him fully. His eyes snapped open and his pupils dilated, speechless at the sensation of a huge male gryphon knotting with his ass. Once the initial shock of penetration wore off, Kaidon basked in the warm feeling of fullness as Night-Wind slid deep inside his rectum, and finished them both off with quick, jerky thrusts.
Night-Wind screeched victoriously, its cock twitching inside him. Kaidon felt the first, sloppy rope of fertile gryphon-cum spurt deep within his violated anus, filling his bowels full of a searing, molten heat. More soon followed, his own cock throbbing weakly in his grasp as the gryphon emptied its balls inside him. Night-Wind trembled, its knot preventing much of its creamy essence from escaping around the tight seal of their bodies. Kaidon felt his belly distend as the creature cummed inside him, drenching his innards in gallons of steamy cum, and huffing possessively in his ear.
Kaidon moaned and collapsed to his elbows, Night-Wind flaring out its wings and landing atop him, wrapping him up in its tight, fetid embrace. The beast reeked of sex, cum, and male arousal, the scent overpowering Kaidon's mind and making his eyes flutter. The bird gave tiny, involuntary thrusts against his body, working its seed deep inside. There was so much. He could feel the freshly deposited semen pool thickly inside his guts as the gryphon squirted the remainder of its hot load within his belly, rubbing against him and crooning softly with pleasure.
The large feline came for ages, and when it was finally spent, semen drooled from Kaidon's asshole, thick rivulets of jizz squelching around the beast's softening cock, and dribbling down his legs. Night-Wind dismounted him once its knot had deflated enough, its floppy penis slipping free of his asshole with a wet _plopping _sound. Kaidon's eyes fluttered, the excess cum gushing out of his gaping pucker, and splashing all over the ground below. He whimpered in shock at the beast's prodigious output, feeling absolutely bloated by it.
Night-Wind slumped to its side and pulled him in close, trapping him against its fluffy chest. Kaidon snuggled warmly into the beast's thick fur, feeling Night-Wind squirm happily and rub its cum-soaked genitals all over his rump. He whimpered and grinded back against the beast, cramming two fingers inside his loosened to pucker to prevent any more cum from leaking out. He felt completely exhausted, relishing in the feeling of immense fullness the gryphon's seed provided. Night-Wind nipped and nuzzled him lovingly, purring with deep satisfaction at the result of their frantic copulation. Kaidon was his mate now, until the end of time.
Before he could get too comfortable, the gryphon stood up and nudged him onto his back. Kaidon groaned, his hands moving to his belly as he felt the contents forced within slosh around. “N-Night-Wind?" he stammered. “W-what are y-you doing?"
The gryphon stared at him with a devilish glint in its eyes, moving over-top his body and slowly turning around. At first he thought the beast merely wanted him to play with its floppy balls dangling right in his face, or perhaps clean its messy sheathe with his tongue, but instead, he watched in disbelief as Night-Wind lifted its tailfeathers, and presented its soft, dark tailhole to him, the rim of which was puckered and gleaming deliciously with moisture. Kaidon recoiled back at the repugnant stench that washed over him, strong and earthy, and completely taboo. Night-Wind stared down at him hungrily, licking its beak, waggling its rump, and lowering itself towards his face.
Kaidon felt a chill race up his spine and placed his hands on the beast's muscular haunches, trying vainly to push the lusty bird away. “Night-Wind … please … please don't do this." His pleas were weak and half-hearted, and the gryphon ignored them entirely. Deep down, Kaidon knew what was about to happen. He always knew it would come to this. There wasn't even a point in trying to fight it anymore, because this was where he belonged: Beneath his mount, indentured to serve its every need whenever it so desired, even if it that meant licking its warm tailhole for the rest of his life.
The gryphon's dark, forbidden musk filled his nostrils, his eyes watering from the overpowering stench as the large male descended lower-and-lower towards his face, until its heavy nuts sagged across his chin. They were hot … so hot. He closed his eyes and sighed, pursing his lips as the gryphon sat down right on his face, smothering the tiny human beneath its big rump, and purring contently at subjugating its former master in such a degrading way.
Kaidon couldn't see a thing. All he felt was the gryphon's fur brushing against his skin, and the heat of its flexing anus pressed right up against his mouth. He inhaled deep lungfuls of the gryphon's sour musk, his eyes rolling up as his wind-pipe constricted at the sheer intensity of the beast's exotic scent forcing its way inside him. It was so rich he nearly passed out, sucking on the beast's asshole and feeling it loosen and relax, inviting his tongue to slip inside.
Kaidon did just that, sticking his tongue out and licking across the patch of soft, anal flesh. The taste was ungodly, his mouth exploding to life as he sampled his beast's heady musk from the one place no man ever should. He couldn't get enough, lapping at the beast's anus until Night-Wind's rump was a sloppy mess of matted feathers.
The gryphon warbled happily and shuffled its hips, its cock throbbing to life as it bent down and engulfed Kaidon's cock within its own warm maw. Kaidon groaned, grabbing the beast's haunches, spreading its tailhole, and driving his tongue deep inside the creature's hot rectum, intent on exploring every inch of his mount's delicious innards. He felt the gryphon's smooth, velvety walls collapse and quiver around his flexible organ, his ministrations quickly driving the beast to a quick, shuddering orgasm. Night-Wind's asshole clamped down around his tongue, the beast growling with pleasure as its cock spilled its load all over his bare chest, and he spilled his seed down the gryphon's throat in-kind.
Kaidon's eyes rolled up. He knew that after they were done, he'd never be able to resist his beast's advances again. He'd been fucked by a gryphon, dominated by it, and once he'd finally broken to its will, accepted his place beneath its legs for the rest of his life. He was Night-Wind's mate now.
Satisfied, the gryphon lifted itself off his face, his tongue sliding out of its rump as he watched its tailhole wink shut, and a thin trail of saliva drizzle out from the well-cleaned hole. Kaidon opened his eyes and gasped for air, each breath he took filled with the beast's spicy, pheromone-laden musk. He moaned and weakly grabbed the gryphon's tail before it was out of reach, Night-Wind spinning around and cocking its head in surprise. It quickly figured out he wanted more, and with a charming look, lowered its backside right back down on-top of him. Kaidon closed his eyes and opened wide.
He prayed to each and every God this night would never end. He prayed to all of them even though Night-Wind was the only one he believed in now. A smile crossed his lips, and then the gryphon's searing heat once more.
***
He dreamed of Night-Wind curled around him underneath the stars, the moon wide and full, bathing them in a glowing aura of silvery light. The smell of sex hung pleasantly in the air, wafting around the lush clearing, and letting any creature know within a hundred yards that two creatures had fornicated passionately with each other this night. He dreamed of the creature's rumbling breath vibrating through his chest, his belly still swollen from the amount of rich ejaculate it had pumped deep inside him. He smiled, wondering just how long it would remain that way.
_ He stayed like that forever, basking in the beasts loving embrace, and listening rapt its soft, comforting vocalizations. At some point, he lifted one Night-Wind's heavy forepaws and slid out from beneath the massive creature, rising to his feet and gazing out across the calm, motionless pool of in-front of them. It seemed even bigger than he last remembered, stretching out across the clearing, and meandering into a lazy stream that disappeared deeper into the dense jungle. _
_ He felt a pang of sadness standing there, a knot forming in his gut. Deep down, he knew he'd never be able to fulfill Night-Wind's needs. Despite everything that had happened tonight, he was a human, and his mate was a gryphon, and there was nothing he could do to change that. A chill raced up his spine. _
_ There was something in the water._
_ There. Right in the middle. A black, spherical light, pulsating ominously just above the surface. It was a small, alien-looking thing, perfectly smooth, with thin tendrils of light rippling out from inside it, spreading across the pond in all directions. Bright and shimmering near the centre, yet fading to black the closer they reached towards shore._
_ Kaidon squinted, acutely aware of the faint, almost non-existent throbbing sensation pulsing deep between his temples. There was a certain mesmerizing beauty to the orb, a seductive warmth that made him want to approach it. He knew he shouldn't, he knew it could be dangerous, but it beckoned him softly with the sweetest of voices … the wind whispering quietly through the tree-tops all around him._
_ He took a step towards it, his dark eyes reflecting the thousands upon thousands of stars shining down in the twilight above. Night-Wind rustled its tawny feathers and tucked its head beneath an outstretched wing, whistling softly as it slumbered peacefully on the grassy embankment beside him. Kaidon smiled. He knew what he must do, and he was glad his love wasn't awake. It would be so much easier this way._
_ He stepped into the warm pool of water, the thin tendrils of light flickering to life and reaching out towards him, as if the twisting orb in the centre of the pool were pleased by his approach. He dragged his hand through the pond, amazed as the light danced around his fingers, and swirled beneath the subtle ripples spreading across it. He felt calm and collected, at peace, wading towards the centre where the Heart of the Oasis resided. It throbbed hypnotically before him, collapsing in upon itself and re-shaping countless times before his eyes, a black, endless void filled with insurmountable power. It was beneath the surface now, just out of reach, descending lower and lower with each passing second. _
_ Kaidon dove beneath the surface. He couldn't let it get out of reach, not when it was so close! He had to see it for his own eyes, he had to feel its warmth between his hands! He swam after it, holding his breath and following the glowing orb deeper and deeper into the murky depths of the pond. He couldn't remember it being this deep last time, but he cared little for this strange new discovery. The sphere was his only focus now, and nothing else was of concern to him._
_ He drew near, the mysterious orb pulsing deep in the blackness, humming faintly as if it were calling out to him … whispering his name._
_ “Kaidon."_
_ He was close, so close. He reached out to touch it, the tendrils of light sliding up his arm, his legs, and even his chest, flitting across his body in strange bursts of light that tingled delicately up his spine. He couldn't stop himself, and the moment his fingers touched the beating heart, was the moment it exploded to life. _
_ It was unlike anything he'd ever felt before: Hot near the center, but colder than ice. Impossibly dry, even though it was submerged underwater. Rough and jagged, yet smoother than silk, and glowing with life, but darker than oblivion itself. The light swallowed his hand in an instant, latching to his skin and climbing slowly up his arm. He tried to pull back, but the light wouldn't let him go. He shouted in fear, air escaping his lungs as he used his other hand to wrench at the alien substance sliding over his body. It was no use, the light spread over him at an alarming rate, and eventually he couldn't even move. _
_ Air. He needed air. His vision flickered and swam, but he knew he couldn't breathe. Not yet. He had to fight with all his strength. The light reached his neck before he managed to tilt his head back and thrash desperately in a vain attempt to escape its clutches. The moon shone down tauntingly in the sky above, just out of reach, the surface so close … yet so far away._
_ His chest heaved painfully for breath. Air. Terror overtook him, his eyes wild and dancing with fear. He wanted to wake up, but couldn't, and he fought the urge to breathe until it was impossible to resist. _
_ When he finally did, all he felt was an icy black sludge spill down his throat, his lungs exploding in agony as they inhaled water, and light, and nothing else. He tried to scream, but no sound came out. Darkness took him. Long, and empty, and unbearably silent._

Night-Wind awoke with a start, blinking to clear his eyes and giving a great, big yawn. The world around him came into a sharp focus, the trees lining the clearing swaying gently in the breeze, as their leaves fell away and drifted lazily across the surface of the pond below. He watched this strange phenomenon for a couple minutes – hypnotized – before realizing something was amiss.
Kaidon – his mate – was missing. Night-Wind did a quick scan of the surrounding jungle but couldn't spot him anywhere, his heart rising into his throat as he sniffed the place where the male had fallen asleep, and looked towards the pond.
At first there was nothing, just ripples echoing across the surface … and then … and then he saw it, a dark mass washed up on shore, limp and motionless. He wilted.
Kaidon.
Fearing the worst, Night-Wind jumped to his feet and raced over, stopping at the last second when he noticed whatever it was, was much larger than Kaidon had ever been. He cocked his head and glared suspiciously at the strange lump, stopping low against the grass and creeping forwards slowly. The size was all wrong, far too big, and the entire thing was covered in damp, soaking feathers that clung wetly to its body. With a jolt, Night-Wind realized the thing in-front of him wasn't his former master at all.
It was another gryphon. A male just like him, with dark mottled feathers, and two black wings splayed out uselessly along the sand.
Night-Wind came up beside the strange creature, cautiously sniffing its fur and recoiling back. Its scent was odd, and different, but not entirely unfamiliar. Night-Wind nudged the smaller bird with his beak, whining softly when it didn't respond to his touch. He didn't know what to do. Its body felt cold, and lifeless, as if it had been submerged underwater for far too long. He settled down on the grass beside it and draped a long brown wing over its body, snuggling up against the frigid creature and feeling terribly lonely. Perhaps it would never wake up, he wondered. Perhaps he'd never see Kaidon again. The thought was almost too much to comprehend, and his feathers drooped in sadness.
The creature gasped for breath, it's eyes snapping open as it coughed up water all over the grass beside them. Night-Wind was startled by the sudden movement, jumping to his feet, and staring at the gryphon in shock as it heaved desperately for breath, a black ooze dribbling from the corners of its beak. Night-Wind bent down and chirped softly in encouragement, rubbing against the soaking male and trying to spur its recovery.
It took a while, but eventually avian stopped retching, rolling onto its side and panting heavily with exhaustion. Night-Wind bent down and inspected the small male, waiting for it to do something … anything.
The gryphon slowly opened its eyes and blinked. They were a clear liquid gold, tired, yet brimming with relief. Night-Wind recognized them well. They belonged to the gryphon in his dreams, but this time, he knew it was real. The small gryphon gazed up at him for a long time before sighing happily and closing them once more, resting its head upon his outstretched paw and nuzzling against him.
An immense feeling of satisfaction washed over Night-Wind. He wrapped himself snugly around his life-mate, and together, they both drifted into a deep, comfortable sleep, the sun breaking upon the horizon far off in the distance.

There is a place in the world, beyond the furthest reaches of mankind, where the wind whispers through the trees, and the nights are as warm, and bountiful as the longest mid-summer's eve. A place where creatures that roam there, never have to worry about food, or water, or sickness again, and live forever with their mates, both in life, and in death. There is a place in the world, where one must sacrifice everything in order to find it, even if it means their soul.
What sort of creature would dare accept such a fate?
Nothing human, to be sure. _ _
