It had been long enough since my mistress's last command that I was able to make a choice for myself. She was still my mistress, but without a constant stream of commands I found that I was able to make choices and assert a little of my own will. I chose to flee the homestead and travel into the nearest town.
It was a quick trip down the mountain and then along a worn road to the town outskirts. I was wearing no more than worn basic garb and had nothing to cover the green splashes staining my face.
I circled the town, looking for a place where i could gain information. Usually rough-looking taverns on the outskirts of towns ran deep with gossip and could point one to certain services. I found such an establishment in an out of the way place boarding a number of farms.
I entered the tavern.
Inside were only a half-dozen men arranged around one table. A serving girl ignored my entry, busying herself with some cleaning duties.
I walked up to the table of men. They all turned to me and evidently saw the stains around my face. Three of them turned away in disgust and the other three laughed raucously.
I stood my ground. Trembling slightly from embarrassment. When the laughter died down I said, 'I clearly need to get rid of these magical stains. Do you know of a mage or warlock in the town that can can do this for me?'
One of the men who laughed stood up from the table and bade me to come outside with him. I followed and we stood in a shady corner away from any prying eyes.
'This is a human kingdom town, lad. Many people here have lost family members in the monster wars. I'm not sure you will find too many here that would accept,' he gestured to my face, 'that. We know what that means in this town.'
I nodded. I was desperate to lift whatever spell had been put on me, but it seemed I was not going to find any help here. Perhaps one of the towns further in the forest could help? The wilding towns where human influence waned and travellers of all species were greeted.
The man surprised me by clasping a hand on his shoulder. It was a supportive gesture.
'You wont find a warlock to help, but there is something that can lift such a thing without that type of magic. It's the three milks of a holstaur. You heard of this?'
I shook my head. 'I believe a holstaur is a harmless kind of monster. A bovine type. Close to a human. But I have never heard of the three milks. Is it magical?'
'The type of magic you need. Them in there don't care much for anyone who consorts with monsters, but I can see it in you that you are in need of help. Pass the farms here and keep going into the wheat fields near the river. There is an outskirt farm not managed by a man, but a holstaur. See that creature and ask it for the three milks to cure your... problem there.'
I could have cried at finally receiving some kindness. I thanked the tavern-goer profusely and set out along the road.
My destination was a massive field of wheat with a barn and a modest house in the middle. It was nearly sundown by the time I reached the dwelling. I knocked on its door, but there came no answer. Hearing some noises I moved to the barn. As I got close, it stepped out.
The holstaur was huge, easily a handspan taller than myself, muscled, with enormous breasts that stood proud and heavy on its chest. Its face was soft and feminine with only a pronounced nose and brow to give it hint of a bovine quality. The only other things to denote it as inhuman were the hooves on its feet and the two tiny horns jutting from its honey-coloured, short-cropped hair.
I wondered to myself what sex it was. holstaurs were famously hard to tell apart in this regard because the males bore large breasts just like the females. I could not work it out just by looking.
It grumbled, obviously unimpressed with my staring.
'Hello,' said I. 'I was told you might be able to help me.'
'Help?' it asked, its voice throaty and a touch masculine.
I could see that it was regarding the stains around my mouth. I gestured to them. 'I was afflicted with these. I need them removed. I am told the three milks of a holastaur can do this.'
The holstaur grunted. 'Who told you this?'
'A man in the tavern back there.'
I went on to describe the man, and the holstaur seemed bemused. We stood in silence for an agonising moment before it bade me to come into the barn. I did so.
I barely made it to the barn door before the holstaur put a huge hand on my back and pushed me inside, towards a pile of hay.
'Come on, come on. Sun is going down and I still have some chores to do. Get those clothes off so I can look at you.'
I started to disrobe, meekly, unsure exactly what this was. Maybe it needed me naked to see the extent of the splashes on my body.
'Did you not hear me? The sun will be down soon, quick about it. Gods, slow witted as you are I'm not surprised a goblin was able to get its seed all over you. You'd have just stood there dumbly and let it happen, I'll bet.'
I hurried, and in a moment I was naked. The holstaur's words made me feel uneasy. It was obviously put out by having me there, but I just hoped I could get whatever cure I needed without much trouble.
It took off its top, revealing muscled arms and its two breasts bound in some kind of harness. It fiddled with the harness a moment and then this also came free, allowing its enormous breasts to sag down, nipples slick with little droplets of milk. It sighed in relief for having its breasts freed.
'Come here. Good. Suck.'
I looked up to ask it what it meant, but before the question could come out its hands were behind my head and I was pushed mouth-first into its nipple.
'Don't be bloody daft. You can figure it out, cant you? Suck!'
I took its warm, soft nipple into my mouth. It was so large that it almost rivalled Krunk's cock. The mental comparison to Krunk caused me steel myself. I would do whatever I had to do get rid of these magical stains and return my body to normal. Whatever this holstaur asked, it would get.
I sucked. The nipple was overly responsive. Warm milk jetted into my mouth with only a little pressure. The milk was sweet, and thick, and creamy. It was delicious. If this was a cure then it was a kind one.
I sucked more, until I found myself greedily increasing my pace, swallowing everything I could, but my mouth started to overflow, letting gushes of milk spill out and down the holstaur's chest.
