I was silent while Lara skillfully cut through the bandages, which had tightened their grip on my body considerably during my struggles of the past night. I remained silent while she removed the collar of the breeding mask and replaced what I now understood to be a very ancient antique in its cabinet. We returned to her quarters where I retrieved my dress and put it on. I sat down to lace up my sandals, then Lara finally spoke to me again.
"I have other torments like that one planned for you, Pleasure imp, and you shall also be experiencing that one again." she said. "Each will end the same way, with a different Tribute each time!"
"I'm not sure that I should have been left bound up in those bandages while you went to bed, Lara!" I snapped back. "I was starting to have trouble breathing just before...before I disgraced myself!"
Lara looked at me with a mixture of anger and concern. "I am a Healer, Linzi!" she replied. "I would have never gone to sleep and left you unwatched! I was awake all night with you, my little imp. And I don't recall giving you permission to address me by name!"
"Your imp apologises Miss, she was angry at herself, but also at you." I replied. "Surely Miss realises that her imp is terrified of becoming the very thing the ordeal last night made of her?"
"I am fully aware of that, Linzi'estar!" Lara replied curtly. "If you want the torments to end, resist the lust that so easily controls you!"
With that, she basically hustled me to the door of her chambers and threw me out. There were still three hours before breakfast, so I wearily made my way back to my own suite to get some sleep. Tel'estar was sitting in an armchair, reading, when I staggered in and flopped face down on the couch. He knelt beside me and removed my sandals.
"I like your new hairstyle, my pet, but you are coming to bed very late!" he said softly.
"I'm sorry, Master, but I'm too upset to talk about it!" I replied, my eyes already closed.
He was already stripping off my dress as I spoke. He took me in his arms and held me on his lap, comforting me as I snuggled against his chest.
"My apologies for not warning you about Lara, my sweet Linzi." he said. "I suspected that she planned to make you her plaything, but I never anticipated her being so bold as to entrap you while I was still here!"
"It's what she did to me that I'm upset about, Master!" I began to sob against his chest now, as he stroked my hair. His fingers brushed against one of the Triskele earrings; he swept my hair back behind my ear and examined it. I groaned as he ran his fingers over the little silver roundel in my newly pierced ear, my earlobes still throbbing from the piercings.
"She should have NOT have done this to you!" Tel shouted, the first time I had ever seen him angry about anything. "This is a violation of your person as well as of your trust. I shall have her remove them immediately!"
"I'm sure if I insisted that she do that, she would, Master." I replied. "That isn't what I'm upset about. She tested me, and I FAILED! I let my imp nature fully control me and behaved like an animal!" I buried my face against his chest and sobbed bitterly. He stroked my hair and hugged me tighter.
"I understand why you struggle against your demonic nature, my sweet Linzi," Tel said, "and I admire you for it. But you are what you are, a Pleasure imp. Is it possible that your struggle may actually be doing you more harm than good?"
"Tr'skel has suggested that my imp nature may be preventing me from achieving Unity with Gyn." I answered. "Maybe if we can fully meld, Gyn will accept my being your slave. I understand Lara's reasons for treating me in this way, she is forcing me to test myself against her torments. I'm just really upset that I couldn't control myself!"
"Gyn will come around, my pet, one way or another. Melded demons never separate in life." Tel stated, with absolute certainty. "You do not need to put yourself through such trials, in fact I'm certain Gyn would not expect you to."
"There's more to it than that, Master." I said. "Tr'skel seems to believe that Gyn and I could have children if we achieve Unity!"
"And that is what you both want, of course." he replied. "What demon couple would not?" He squeezed me even tighter and kissed the top of my head.
I looked up at him. "Do you believe such a thing to be possible?" I asked.
"Demonic reproduction is much more like budding in plants, although a great deal more complicated, than hu-man genetic fusion. The melding of demon parents to produce a new essence, a new consciousness, is of far more significance. The body is simply a vessel for the new essence." Tel explained. "The power of the estar has transformed you twice, Linzi'estar, and Gyn's transformative power infuses with your body when you are melded and sometimes, I am sure, physically."
"Master!" I exclaimed, smiling wickedly. "Such things are private!"
He laughed softly. "Of course, my pet!" he replied. "I was simply speculating on how it may be possible for you to bear younglings."
"Well, thank you for explaining, Master." I replied. "I'm now more determined than ever to succeed!"
"I have no doubt that you will, my sweet little Linzi." he answered. "Now, your Master commands you to sleep for him."
I snuggled up against his powerful body, felt his tenderness and affection for me, and was immediately asleep. When I awoke, I was in the bath, still in his lap, his strong hands gently bathing me.
"It is nearly time for breakfast, my pet." he said, smiling down at me.
"I hope Master has given us time to say good morning properly!" I said, smiling back.
"Of course!" he replied, before kissing me deeply.
I moved us back near the edge of the bath, where the marble lining had been carved to form a bench seat just under the surface of the bath water. With my Master seated upon it, his cock was above the surface, the warm water lapping at his thighs and ballocks as I slid between his open legs. I took my cue from the bath water and began stroking his heavy ball sac lightly with my tongue, lapping at the twin orbs of his balls slowly, moaning softly as his fingers ran through my hair. I pressed my tongue tip between them, wriggling it against the rock hard shaft under the thick skin, slowly moving upwards to lick his cockshaft all the way up to the little pleasure nexus where his shaft inserted between the flange-like ridge of his corona. Gripping the frenulum itself in my sharp little imp's teeth, I wriggled my mouth against his glans until his gasps of pleasure made the lust-snake tighten its coils deliciously within the muscles of my vagina even as its tongue caressed the back of my throat.
Releasing his cockhead from my mouth, I looked deep into his eyes and followed the serpent's lead, flicking my tongue in a beckoning motion as if inviting and guiding the crown of his cock between my willing lips. My Master needed little inviting; his plum slipped into my mouth as he raised his hips. I moved my head downwards, feeling his cockhead push deeper down my throat as I gripped his thick shaft with my lips, sucking strongly. I let my mouth slide fully down to the base of his cock, my chin rubbing his ballocks as his glans was gently squeezed deep in my throat. My gaze was locked on his as I swallowed on his cockhead, my nostrils flared as I breathed deeply, loving the sensation of his cockshaft throbbing in my throat, the lust-snake's coils flexing and relaxing as its tail wriggled against the entrance to my little sexpot. I let Tel's cock slide slowly from my lips and rubbed my cheek against his glans, now slippery from inside my mouth, as I gazed up at him with deep adoration.
My Master now reached down to take my hands, which were resting on his upper thighs, and drew me upwards. We kissed slowly, deeply and passionately, his tongue caressing mine as I rubbed my engorged sex lips against the tip of his manhood, moaning with delight. However, before the little entrance to my belly could engage with his cockhead, he gripped my right hip firmly in his left hand and slid his right underneath my bottom. I was suddenly lifted and inverted, my lips aligned with his cockhead once more as I felt my thighs slide onto his shoulders on either side of his head. My mouth gloved his long rigid cock again as I felt his tongue slide between my love lips, the muscular sheath of my vagina first clamping tight before slowly relaxing and contracting, as my head moved back and forth, his cockhead gliding over my tongue and deep into my throat as my little nose pressed and rubbed against the thick skin of his ball sac with each stroke.
His hands squeezed my bottom cheeks, pressed my opened vulva harder against his lips as I relaxed my throat and moved my head faster, twisting slightly on each downstroke to feel his plum corkscrew a little as it moved down towards my gullet, moaning with joy now as his lips found my unhooded little pleasure button, kissing it, then alternately sucking on my nubbin and circling it slowly with his tongue tip. I began to squeal on the full length of my Master's magnificent cock as the spasms within my belly strengthened into the rhythmic contractions of orgasm, my lips fluttering around the base of his shaft as he brought me on again with his lips and tongue.
I then pushed with my hands, which had been pressed against his upper legs, letting his throbbing cockshaft slide from my mouth as I made a curving dive into the huge bath, turning round to take his wrists and pull him to me as I wrapped my legs round his waist, feeling his cockhead pushing inside my belly as he drove his magnificent, rock hard manhood with an urgency that brought me instantly to orgasm again, his cockshaft throbbing and pumping as he groaned with pleasure, my heart feeling like it would burst with joy at my Master was satisfied by the body of his adoring little slave.
Breakfast was being served that morning in the high keep's huge refectory, where a huge buffet had been set out for the arrival of the Tributes. Tel'estar and I walked into the large dining hall hand in hand. Tr'skel and the Lady Arya were sitting together, almost finished eating, while Tar had obviously only arrived shortly before we had. Lara was nowhere to be seen. Having served ourselves, we sat near the High Lord and his lady. It wasn't long before Tr'skel began discussing my duties for the day.
"You understand the purpose of the Tribute Assessments, Linzi?" he asked. "Do you require assistance to carry them out?"
"I understand that I must identify the suitability of each Tribute to the discipline that they have selected, my lord, and guide those who have yet to decide. I also understand that the Sexual Disciplines attract far more prospective Tributes than the other disciplines, so I will have plenty of work in this area!" I replied, grinning wickedly.
Tr'skel turned slowly to Arya. "And you thought she'd be reticent about sexual assessment." he said, grinning widely.
"I actually said that you should not expect the girl to be at ease with carrying out such assessments simply because she is a Pleasure imp." Arya'infer replied, then smiled at me.
