Dragonborn Rising

Chapter 32 -- The Damned Thalmor

(Lot more sex in this chapter compared to the last few. Just seemed to flow that way.)

*****

Arriving back in Whiterun, Aela and I celebrated the fact I was now Harbinger in the only way we knew. We invited Lydia into our bedroom, and proceeded to have the sort of threesome one could only dream about. I knew Aela was rather open-minded about being with women, as she had admitted to one or two romances with members of the same sex, but it was a real sight when Lydia quite happily spent quite a lot of time with her mouth at Aela's pussy as I pounded her from behind. It was only when we were lying back afterwards, the three of us exhausted after at least a couple of hours of fucking, when she admitted that was her first time with a woman.

"Never would have guessed," Aela joked.

"I just thought of what Ragnar does to me, and applied it to you."

"I take it that wasn't your first threesome though?" Aela wondered, "You seemed very open minded."

"I've had two men once before. A couple of city guard. To be honest, I much preferred this time. Ragnar is more than enough with that cock of his."

"It is wonderful, isn't it?"

I cleared my throat. "If you two are happy talking about me as if I'm not here..."

"Oh please, as if your ego isn't already twice the size of this house," Aela mocked.

"And I'm only being honest, Ragnar. The only reason you haven't had my arse yet is that it is much bigger than what I've had before."

"Trust me on this, Lydia, you want him there. He'll be gentle when you want, but when you let him off the leash, by Talos, he'll ruin you but you'll love every single second. I never thought I could climax from anal until I met Ragnar. Now... Well, I think I'll be asking for it instead of him."

Lydia grabbed my chin so I looked at her. "We're trying it very soon, Ragnar."

"Why not now?" Aela asked.

"Two reasons. One, I want to feel completely ready for it. And, two, I don't particularly want an audience for it. No offence."

"None taken, but I want to hear all about it afterwards." She paused a moment before asking, "Want to see him fuck me in the arse?"

"Only if you promise to eat me out in return this time."

Five minutes later, Aela was lying flat on her stomach, head buried between Lydia's legs, as I was slowly burying myself in that fantastic arse of hers. I locked eyes with Lydia every so often, and I could see her interest rise with each hard thrust into Aela, particularly as the latter was enjoying it quite a lot. Aela could only take so much before she needed to change position, flipping onto her back, spreading and raising her legs. Lydia moved so she could straddle her face and hold Aela's legs as I got into position too. I was soon pounding Aela while I could give Lydia some attention at the same time, though she was thoroughly enjoying what Aela was doing with her tongue at the same time.

Aela wasn't lying about climaxing, as she came hard as I pounded her, so much so that I felt a hand pressed to my stomach to stop me, though she didn't ask me to pull out. Instead, she refocused on Lydia, bringing her to quite the climax, enough that she had to lean forward against me for support. She eventually sat back, leaving Aela in a ball underneath me, resuming what I was doing, though not as hard as before.

"Where do you want to cum?" she asked when I was looking ready to finish.

"I want to make a mess on your face."

I wanted to do it, and she loved it when I did too. She laughed away as she got down on her knees on the floor, and Lydia wasted no time kneeling beside her. Standing in front of them, it didn't take long for me to stroke myself to climax, leaving a mess over both their faces, which they then proceeded to lick off each other. I could only stand and watch, and I think the only reason they didn't blow me is the fact it had been inside Aela's butt.

Back under the furs a little later, I started to chuckle. "Is this going to be the life of the Harbinger going forward, Aela?"

She cuddled into me a little tighter. "Maybe. But this was just a treat from me and Lydia for now."

Lydia was to my other side, as there was no doubt she was staying the night too. "We'll definitely have to do this again though."

"I'll have to thank Jarl Balgruuf for his choice of housecarl. Especially one so willing to take a load on the face, and more than likely take it up the arse."

"More than likely? Try definitely, Ragnar." She paused, before asking hopefully, "Tomorrow night?"

"Sure, if that's okay with..."

"It's fine, Ragnar. I might just listen in and use one of my toys."

The next morning, it was time to introduce myself as the new Harbinger to everyone else. Farkas and Vilkas were ready for my arrival, and assembled everyone in the training yard to the rear of the hall. The first thing we told everyone was the success of the mission, and the fact Kodlak was now at rest, his spirit in Sovngarde. We did not reveal the whole truth of the Circle, as the four of us agreed the reaction would likely be negative. Farkas and Vilkas were eager for a cure, and I had already offered to go with them if they wanted to do it soon. Aela was still in two minds, though assumed she too would eventually seek a cure.

I explained that the Kodlak's room would remain as it was, a shrine to the man, and to all Harbingers who came before him. The ante-room would still be used for meetings and private conversations, but I confessed that I would not require the room, and would not sleep easily in it anyway. Everyone understood and thought it was a fine idea.

It was a relief that no-one was unhappy that I was now Harbinger, most agreeing with the sentiment that having the Dragonborn as Harbinger would be a boon for the organisation. I didn't have to say too much about what I expected, keeping it simple, that how they performed for Kodlak is how I expected them to continue to perform. There was no disgruntlement as I reminded them of the expectations, and I was left thinking I'd never have to say anything regarding said expectations again. Everyone knew what to do, and considering the four Circle members were now considering a cure of the beast-blood flowing through us, I could only believe the Companions would restore its honour and had a brighter future as a guild.

I was ready to just settle into my role as Harbinger. Vilkas and Farkas readily offered their services, though I insisted they just keep doing whatever they were doing for Kodlak, but I would always be willing to lend an ear to their problems, even give advice, but admitted they were just as experienced as I when it came to matters of the sword and shield.

As for Aela, I think she just loved me that little bit more. At heart, I still didn't consider myself a good man. I'd done far too much to ever remove some of the stains on my soul. But she did help me feel better about myself at times. Lydia wasn't as aware of my past, though I knew I'd eventually confess everything. After a few drinks that evening with the Companions, I returned home, Aela letting me know that she would stay at Jorrvaskr, as she knew Lydia wanted me alone that night.

If Lydia didn't enjoy herself between me walking through the front door, and whenever we finally fell asleep sometime the next morning, then I have no idea how to judge a woman's reaction. We didn't just go straight into what we both wanted. I think she really liked me, possibly even loved me, but we spent a long time just enjoying the presence of the other before we even began to make love. She had an almost perfect body, thankfully not a reminder of those that I had lost, but she certainly had an athleticism and flexibility I knew I would appreciate the longer we were together.

When it came to the whole point of the evening, she was very nervous, but after a few minutes, she absolutely loved it. I remained gentle for as long as she wanted, but the sight of her underneath me, legs spread wide, face showing nothing but pleasure as I slowly fucked her arse... I have many memories I hold in my mind, and that was simply another picture to add. And when she finally let me off the leash, she definitely enjoyed it, and I had one of the best climaxes I could remember.

Making love again after waking the next morning, she did let slip how she felt about me, and near enough ran out of the room straight away when my mouth opened a couple of times but I didn't say anything. I managed to hold onto her before she could flee. I admitted to being flattered, told her that I adored her in return, but that I loved Aela. I then added more of my own history, and the relationships I'd been in before.

"So you've had relationships like this before?" she wondered, a little taken aback by my history, or so I thought.

"Aye. So, while I'm not saying this can't continue, as I want this to continue, while I like you, Lydia, and I do like you a lot..."

"Maybe I'm just being foolish," she said quietly.

I lifted her chin with a finger and gave her a gentle kiss. "Love is never foolish. As I said, I adore you, Lydia. Already you have made my life so much better. I enjoy your company, inside and outside of the bedroom, and I hope you are by my side for many years to come."

"But you don't love me?"

I could only smile. "Maybe there are feelings I choose to keep buried, simply because I don't want to deal with the fact I am in love two women again?" She smiled before I added, "I will admit to you, though. Aela and I won't talk about it, not yet, but I plan on marrying her one day in the future, and I want a family with her."

"But you will, and she will, allow me to be with you too?"

"Maybe. Maybe not. I don't know, we haven't discussed what we both clearly want, though I know we both think about it. But I won't lie. I really like what we already share."

"Me too. So would you like this to continue?"

"Absolutely! I have had a pair of Nord goddesses before. They were different to you and Aela, but I now have two again. And, no, I definitely don't want our relationship to stop."

"I'm not sure I could handle it stopping now. Like Aela told me, you're very addictive."

"Then, like with Aela, perhaps not think too far into the future. Let's enjoy the here and now."

We sealed our possible agreement with some more lovemaking, Lydia now having no problem with saying she loved me as we made some of the most passionate love since we started our physical relationship. I had a thought when I came inside her again that she was probably more than capable of carrying my child too. I wondered if she would ever consider it. It was a conversation for another time.

Finally leaving the bedroom, Lydia was quite content cooking breakfast, wearing nothing at all in front of me as I sat down, still naked as well. I couldn't help run my eyes up and down her body. Even her back was exquisite, and I gained a real appreciate of her legs and her arse, unable to stop myself from leaning forward and giving the latter of squeeze or gentle slap. She laughed as I did so, and happily sat on my lap as breakfast cooked, spending plenty of time kissing before we really needed to think about eating.

Dressing a little later, we wandered up to Jorrvaskr, finding Aela in her quarters. She took one look at us and burst into laughter. "I gather Lydia enjoyed herself, Ragnar?"

"We're doing that together, Aela," Lydia gushed, "I want to see him with you again, and I want you to watch him with me."

"Deal!" Aela then surprised me by stepping forward and embracing her. "And I'm glad you enjoyed it. As far as I'm concerned, Ragnar is ours. The three of us will make this work." Aela then glanced at me, and no doubt my face was priceless, as she stepped back. "Your reaction is amusing, Ragnar."

"I just thought..."

"You love me, yes?" I nodded. "And Lydia?"

"I adore her."

"You mean you love her."

I glanced at Lydia, who was now blushing again, before meeting Aela's eyes. "It's..." I trailed off and sighed. "I've been down this road before, and it's not worked. Or something went wrong. Lydia and I have agreed that, no matter what, we are enjoying what we share. Let's leave it at that for now."

"Lydia?" Aela asked.

"He knows how I feel about him. And I know, deep down, he feels the same way. But he's also told me about his past, and his previous lovers, and... his wife... He may never say those words, but there's no doubt he does feel the same way. It's all in the eyes. They say what I want to know."

Aela looked at me again. "So, Harbinger, what's the plan?"

"Honestly, I have no idea. The Companions can run itself, so I'm left wondering what I do..."

"Do what you've always done. But you are Dragonborn. Have you heard from Delphine?"

"Not yet. She's just up in Riverwood, so I could ride there if I wanted, but she said that she'd be in contact once she had news. I'm content to wait around until she sends word."

I'll admit, life was pretty good for a few days, if not a couple of weeks. Despite being Harbinger, I took on a contract or two, enjoying a good fight with a group of bandits that had moved into an abandoned fort west of Whiterun, and another job where I helped a citizen of Whiterun retrieve something that had been stolen. That concerned me, thinking the Thieves Guild were responsible, but in the end, it was another group of bandits targeting the citizen due to not being a Nord. I took delight in putting them down, as the citizen was someone I considered a friend.

As for my personal life, well, I don't think it could have been better. I never went to sleep without having my dick sucked, or having eaten some pussy, or fucked either Aela or Lydia, or both of them, in all three holes. Some nights it would just be Aela or Lydia. Some nights it would be the three of us. Lydia had discovered a real enjoyment for anal, and I'm not exaggerating. She wanted it nearly each time we were together. As for Aela, there was no doubt she thought about the things I thought about. Marriage. Children. A cure, and a future. We talked about such things in abstract terms nearly every night. We were fooling each other by not talking about it bluntly, but I assured her, once the Dragon Crisis was over, we would discuss everything the very next night.

I asked her about Lydia, and how her involvement in our life would impact us. Aela insisted that she would always be a part of both our lives, and she would never deny Lydia the opportunity to be with me, and she knew I had endless affection for her in return. In the end, she assured me that it would all work out in the end, and that she liked Lydia quite a lot too, so while she might have the occasional pang of jealousy, the over-riding emotion was one of happiness and enjoyment in the lives we shared as a trio.

Around two weeks after sending Kodlak's soul to Sovngarde and my elevation to Harbinger, a courier walked into Jorrvaskr, looking for me. After handing me the letter, giving him a couple of coin in return, I read its contents and wasn't surprised to see it was from Delphine. The good news was that she had put together a plan, and asked me to head to Riverwood immediately.

Aela and Lydia both joined me for the ride to Riverwood, both joking about another night spent with the older woman. I retorted, stating with age came experience, and that she'd certainly shown me a thing or two. That made both of them fall silent for a moment before they started to suggest certain things we could do together. Riding with an erection is not very comfortable.

Delphine was surprised to see me so quickly, likely believing I was busy with other things. She had been busy fulfilling the innkeeper act, but once I appeared, she asked me to join her in the hidden basement. Aela and Lydia stayed upstairs, though there were more jokes about me not behaving once out of sight.

"They were not jealous?" she asked once we were at the table.

"No. Why would they be?" Delphine had no answer to that, and could only shrug. "Do you regret it?"

"Not at all."

"Would you like it to happen again?"

"Honestly?" I nodded. "I've thought about it quite a bit." She leaned forward, adding quietly, "I definitely think about it when I masturbate."

"So you masturbate, Delphine? Well, I learn something new every day. But we can discuss all this later. What's your plan?"

She started to laugh, no doubt wanting to say something else about what we'd done, but cleared her throat and the smile disappeared. "I figured out how we're going to get you into the Thalmor Embassy."

"Just me? What about my friends?"

"No, only you, Ragnar. While they wouldn't know my face, I'd definitely attract attention. And, to be honest, I'd want to kill every bastard inside. And the fewer people heading inside, the better, so your friends should stay in Whiterun. Safer for all."

"Okay, you're the one planning all this, and I trust you, so we'll do it your way. How do I get inside?"

The fact I said I trusted her made the smile return for a brief moment. "The Thalmor ambassador, Elenwen, regularly throws parties where the rich and connected cosy up to the Thalmor. I can get you into one of these parties. Once you're inside the Embassy, you get away and find Elenwen's secret files. I have a contact inside the Embassy. He's not up for this kind of high-risk mission, but he can help you. His name's Malborn. Wood elf, plenty of reason to hate the Thalmor. You can trust him. I'll get word to him to meet you in Solitude, at the Winking Skeever. You know it?"

"Aye. I've stayed there a few times."

"While you're doing that, I'll work on getting you an invitation to Elenwen's little party. I've been waiting until the moment I knew she would be having another. Meet me at the Solitude stables after you've arranged things with Malborn. Any questions?"

"When's the party?"

"Four days from now, so you'd better move fast."

"Any idea of the number of Thalmor inside?"

"Malborn can give a rough estimate, but you'll be looking at a regiment of soldiers at the very least. Best you do the job as silently as possible. You might be Dragonborn, but you can still bleed like a man."

"Good point. Considering my past, I'm sure I can get through without too much hassle."

"You sound confident. Good. The embassy is one of the most heavily guarded places in Skyrim. The Thalmor hate the Nords as much as we hate them. Giving them a bloody nose will make my year."

"Guess I should head back to Whiterun and get things organised."

"I understand you're now the Harbinger?" I nodded. "That's good cover, even if you don't look at it like that. But you do realise you will soon draw attention from everyone?"

"I know. I'll deal with it when it comes."

I was ready to go, simply giving her a nod, when she said, "Before you go, Ragnar..."

Turning around, Delphine walked around the desk and perched herself back against the table. "Would you care to remain here for a little while?" She sat up on the desk, hiked up her dress and removed her panties, throwing them towards me. "I was wondering if..."

"Yes. Definitely yes."

My eager response caused the smile to return. "Really?"

"Delphine, putting it bluntly, you are a great fuck," I replied, already unbuckling my belt as I walked towards her.

Her kiss was as good as I remembered, but like hell was I going to fuck her while she was still clothed, making her laugh as I removed her dress then her bra. I was going to stay at least partly dressed, and pulled her forward towards me as I slid my cock inside her. She bit my chest as I did, trying to stifle the loud moan she wanted to make.

Then, to put it simply, we just fucked. It was fantastic. Delphine definitely loved it. I enjoyed myself too. She eventually had to lie back on the table, my hands wrapped around her thighs, as I just pounded her. Eventually moving one hand to fondle her clit, she must have been turned on the moment she saw me, as making her orgasm didn't take too long. I kept fucking her through it, then made her laugh even more when I pulled out and came on her. She looked down to see thick ropes of cum stretching from the hair above her pussy to her breast. "By Talos, Ragnar, how much do you unload?"
