The Slave's Reward
The village...
I turned my head from one side to the other but the falconry hood -- I had seen it briefly before it slipped down over my eyes -- hid most from view, my feathers shivering as if it was just a little bit colder outside than was actually comfortable. I knew the village well but the ground didn't feel the same beneath my taloned feet as it usually did and it set me on edge, pulse quickening as my naked form was paraded on the end of her leash.
If I'd had any sense left in me, I would have blushed. A knight -- on a chain? Everyone I had known back in my old life would have laughed and mocked me but it probably spoke volumes of the company I chose to keep that I knew that they wouldn't have actually lifted a finger to save me. I was used to being naked around the dragoness tribe there too and the touch and caress of a passing, dismissive paw didn't worry me anymore either. It was all the same to me, even though I swallowed hard and tried not to shudder too much, even though all I wanted to do in the cruel heat of the moment was to lean into their gropes.
Maybe they had a treat for me?
Oh, it was such a terribly submissive thing to think, my mind broken beyond all compare. But that was where I was, head turning as I strove to catch sound -- anything -- and tell just where I was. The grit and loose stone of the path changed to smoothly worn stone, bearing the tale of a path trod by many dragons, and there was no longer the bite of wind on my feathers, my tail finally able to lay flat again. They'd teased me with the threat of having the red slash of feathers in my tail removed, cut out, but hadn't actually gone through with it. It was threats like that that forever kept me on edge as their slave.
"Come now."
She didn't need to direct me for I was already on her heels, trotting along so very obediently with the memory of so many paws on my backside and cock, squeezing and pinching flesh that they really should have never had the liberty to touch. But that liberty no longer belonged to me and I subjected myself to it with a fair amount of willingness too, my head tipped back to expose the vulnerability of my throat. Bound as I was, chains clinking as if in music, it was all I could do to show that, yes, I would appease them. I would be a good slave, the good bird for them. And, of course, I would be the very best slave I could for her. For everything in my life since I'd been taken captive always had to come back to her above all else.
"Now..."
The tone of her voice sent a shiver down my spine but I tried not to let it show, blood pumping and beak opening just a sliver. I was sure a slip of my tongue was showing but the thought slipped from my mind as a feather was plucked out, myself playing the part of a passive participant in the narrative of my own life.
And there it all began.

"Eyes on me, little bird..."
The falconry hood slipped off his head, ruffling up his feathers in the wrong direction, and Aquilan gasped, the eagle's chest rising and falling rapidly. His wrists, wings slipping down the line of his arms as if he had truly been intended for flight as an anthro, had been bound tightly behind his back with a strip of leather, which must have been damp when it had been originally tied. He knew this as it grew steadily tighter as it dried, a constant reminder as to the severity of his predicament and just how things were. He wasn't going to escape the tribe of warrior dragons and, well, after some time with them, he wasn't even so sure that he wanted to.
And that was partly because of her. The blue dragoness, Sairsyn (even though he wasn't actually allowed to speak her name aloud and most likely not even think it too) stood over him, a paw on his shoulder imperiously pushing the proud eagle down to his knees. But it was hard to be proud when one was on their knees, nerves tingling with that distinct throb of submission that was both alluring and terrifying in equal measures. How could such a knight, a warrior of the realm, fall so far before them? And it had all been so very easy, so quick to drop and drop and drop into a world that was illicit in nature and yet everything he had ever needed and so much more too.
Maybe that was what he told himself to get by. Maybe that was what he really felt. It hardly mattered either way when there was no chance of escape. He'd do what he had to do and justify it any way he needed to, at the end of the day in his cold, forlorn little cell.
"My dear... You've been a good slave these last months, have you not?"
Aquilan gulped and tipped his beak down, hating how the iron collar dug into his feathers. It hadn't been removed in those months and it made it harder and harder to clean his feathers, not that they allowed him more than the most cursory of baths. The extended bathing sessions of the dragoness warriors were reserved only for the females, of which the slaves were none. He hadn't even had the chance to speak to other slaves as they seemed to take great care in ensuring that he was gagged and bound whenever he was in the presence of another slave, as if they were trying to keep something hidden from him. But it wasn't something that he could expend much mental energy considering as he toppled onto his straw-padded sleeping mat completely and utterly drained of every last scrap of energy at the end of every day of his life.
The beautiful dragoness who had taken over his entire life stood tall and proud, her paws loosely held at her sides. She didn't need to strike an imposing pose for she was an imposing figure in herself, feminine and yet rippling with muscle beneath scales that had clearly been softly and lovingly oiled in one of those baths that he so desired.
Murmuring softly to himself under his breath -- it was not a sound, after all, made for any particular reason, Aquilan shifted his weight, surprised by the fact that his ankles had not been bound in manacles too. She did rather seem to like those, the weight of them making him awkward and clumsy with each and every step he attempted to make while being forced to wear them.
For the first time, he took note of the room he was in: some kind of circular stone chamber that set his heart quickening. A large, four-poster bed resided in the middle, the centre of attention, and the heat from the roaring fireplace -- yes, he'd heard that crackling and spitting, snapping up logs like kindling -- brushed his feathers, although he could not have said whether he wanted to lean into its warmth or move away to save singing his feathers. A little sensation was better than nothing at all but the room itself was more elaborate than even the ceremonial huts that he'd been ushered into in the village, leading him to wonder just where he was.
And yet... It did not matter and could not matter. He was at her will and whim regardless of anything else.
She could take him wherever she pleased.
Stalking up to him, although he was not a prey creature waiting to be caught, she smirked cruelly, lips pulling up from her sharp teeth on just the one side.
