Part 1: Captured!
Saya watched the sun disappear behind the frowning Cimmirian mountains in the distance and sighed deeply. She had been wandering around in the deserted wilderness for the entire day with no sign of life. She reigned in her stallion and urged him onto a beaten track, hoping it would lead to civilisation. The shadows slowly lengthened and the darkness began to creep from the east. She Suppressed a shiver and pulled the cloak around herself. Her eyes looked for a place to shelter for the night, but there seemed to be none.
The entire day had been exceedingly suspicious. Last night, she had been traveling with her bodyguard from Arrock to distant Braeka. War had broken out in Arrock, and her Guardian, fearing the princess would be captured, had started her off for Braeka, hoping she would be safe. Little did the Warlord suspect the treachery that had occurred under the cover of darkness.
Saya awoke completely alone except for her stallion and a sheepskin of water. The guard had disappeared entirely, and she was left to the mercy of the climate, the terrain and the unknown.
She raised her grey eyes at the rock edifice that bore down menacingly at her and shivered. At the foot of the mountains it was dark, and the shadows were long, but the trail she was following curved through a pass in these giants of stone. She slid her hand on her sword, reassuringly and nudged her horse to a canter. There was something about these mountains that she did not trust. It seemed as there was someone watching her.
Saya was not particularly afraid. She was of fine warlike stock, trained to battle from the start. The elegant haughtiness of her manner spoke of the Cimmerian tribe that had turned civil and founded the city of Arrock. Her creamy fair skin, her blue-black hair, and misty grey eyes echoed the lore of the ancient Cimmerians. Saya knew of her haunting beauty, and she knew only a few wielded the two-handed sword better than she.
The horse turned a blind corner and started. It reared suddenly and unexpectedly, catching Saya lost in a reverie, quite off-Guard.
'By Mithra!' she swore, as the reigns slipped from her loose grip and she tumbled off the rearing animal. Quickly she regained her balance and crouched low. She stared straight in the black eyes of a huge, cimmerian bandit. Saya felt fear. She glanced around and counted four more men. One of them had caught the bridle of her stallion and was stroking him calm. They were all leering at her. She gripped her sword and pulled it out. Saya did not know how she was going to fend off these monsters, but she knew she would not give up without a fight.
The first man studied her stance and decided she was a mean swordswoman. He pulled out his own broadsword and swung at her. Saya met him and floundered, the force behind the broadsword no match for her own. She quickly turned around and lunged at him, her speed and agility enabled her to graze the man's flank. He cried out as her blade drew blood. She was about to swing again, when he caught her hand in his own and crushed the sword out of her grip.
"You're a quick little wench!" he exclaimed as he gripped her hand. "Let go of me, Barbarian!" "I have no gold! I wish only to be on my way...there is nothing I can do for you."
Saya struggled against his grip, kicking and lunging. She thought, he would let her go since she had nothing to give but he began to laugh. The others gathered around her, standing with their arms crossed and watching her useless struggles with leering grins. They seemed to be amused.
"Do you have a cunt, woman?" One of the men called out as her immediate captor released her. She could not escape, because they had her surrounded but Saya found herself backing into the mountain wall. She stared at them unbelieving, her eyes wide with horror. The man who had spoken, came nearer, he pushed her against the wall with one hand, crushing her breasts with his palm. "You have no gold, but do you have a cunt, woman?"
Saya fought back her fear, and struggled for a breath. The huge man, his naked barrel chest rippling with muscles, held her pinned with one massive arm. Her lungs were crushed, she could only gasp raggedly. His spread hand almost covered her entire bosom, she looked up at him. He towered at atleast seven feet.
"Please, let me go, Once I arrive safely at home. I shall reward you all well. I am a rich lady, I possess the means to give you all a lot of gold."
The man laughed, 'we have no need for your gold.'
He grasped her wrist and held it above her head. He grasped the other in his second hand and raised it as well. Saya breathed heavily, she felt so vulnerable. Her ample breasts gathered and protruding, she knew the position created deep cleavage on her chest above her tunic. The man leaned down on her, his head slightly below hers. She could feel his rancid breath on her neck, on the cleavage, she was so afraid of showing. She began to pant and this pleased the man. He grinned savagely, licked his lips. He brought his face closer and slid his tongue over her right nipple. Saya shrieked in disgust and twisted, struggling to pry her wrists from his hands but he held on firmly, sliding his tongue leisurely over her nipples. He was making her tunic damp, and it was sticking to her skin. Underneath it, her nipple responded enthusiastically to his warm, moist tongue. He licked her tunic till it clung to her nipple, wet with his saliva.
Then he drew back to admire his work, 'She loved it, the whore loved it!' He said with a loud guffaw, and his mates drew closer to watch.
Saya cried out and struggled against him again, but soon his tongue was over her nipple again and her nipple responded with a tingle, growing hard and erect, poking out distinctly through the damp cloth. Her nipple seemed to love the tongue, she could not deny that, but she could not bear this disrespect any longer, she had to break free of this savage. She did not want to be raped. She felt the warm moistness of his tongue again. He took her nipple in his mouth and began to suck on it slowly, dragging it into his mouth. At the sight of him suckling at her breast she almost melted, just barely able to catch the moan that surfaced in her throat. She felt a wetness between her legs, her head was beginning to pound and it made her desperate to be free. Suddenly, she kicked. She kicked hard and powerfully, and caught the man rolling her nipple around in his mouth, in the groin.
The reaction was immediate, he cried out in agony and stumbled away clutching his scrotum, she found herself free momentarily. She quickly scampered away, found an opening, and darted for it. The men were sitting down, watching their fellow take his pleasure and were no match for her speed. She bounded down the dark ravine, away from the pools of light created by their lighted torches. She heard them stumbling after her, grunting and shouting in an alien language. Saya did not look back, she ran for her life. Behind her she heard the neigh of a horse and sank in dismay. She could not outrun a horse. Within moments, the plunging hooves were upon her and the rider leaned down and caught her in his grip. She was hoisted up, kicking and struggling and dragged back. As soon as she was dropped to the ground, one of the men stepped up to her, tore away her cloak and gripped her hair. He yanked her head up, and looked into her face. Saya grimaced, gripping his wrist with both hands, trying to lessen the tension straining her hair. Her whole head hurt, she felt several roots coming out.
"Bitch!" He yelled at her, and slapped her across the face with the other hand. "Stupid Bitch!" Saya reeled from the impact. She howled in shock and agony, her face felt as if it was on fire, the pain radiated down to her neck. She had never been hit so hard. "Fucking Whore!" "Whores don't fight, you stupid bitch!" He yanked her upright again, and struck her other cheek.
The backhand sent her sprawling in the dust, as another shriek escaped her. She whimpered, there was dust in her mouth and in her eyes, she couldn't see. Her vision was swaying, she realised. Her face throbbed, there was mind-numbing pain. She began to sob, whimpering and weeping, the pain and humiliation and fear were far more than she had ever imagined. For some minutes, she was left alone on the ground, sobbing. Then the man, reached for her again. She felt his fingers grasping her hair and began to whimper in fear
"No! Don't touch me! Release me, I warn you, my people will seek you out! They will seek out your families! Don't Come near me!"
There was a chuckle, and snickers from the four men who looked on as one of them handled her. She was dragged to her feet. She tried to twist out of the grasp but for her struggles, she was slapped again, not as hard as before, but the blow stung and she grew limp, tears streaming down her face.
