Chapter 1
----------------
Leilana giggled softly in her sleep, sighed contentedly and snuggled closer to his warm, hard body. Her lover's arm was like a steel band wrapped tightly around her waist, as if he had claimed her as his and wouldn't let go, even while sleeping. No matter how much she squirmed. Now his breathing was tickling the back of her neck, and she woke up with a smile.
Her pussy was still very wet and quite sore from last night's pounding. Wow, what a night! It had been such a very long time...
"Queen Lei! You're looking gorgeous as ever, my dear!" #1, her best attack hero, beamed at her from the head of his cavalry unit as they returned. Organized chaos ruled in City1 as eight waves of over 400K archers, transports, and various other troops returned within seconds of each other, dust from the road temporarily marring the landscape as they trod down the roadway, proud and triumphant. The latest campaign had been very successful, and they had claimed over a billion units of food plunder in addition to various other resources. She had already finished queuing up scouts and was especially happy after confirming her newbie heroes wasn't lost on the bomb.
Leilana smiled up at her heroes and the Castellan returned her grin as she strolled out of the feasting hall, eyes lingering appreciatively at the ample cleavage being displayed with the queen's latest glittering outfit that – as usual - left nothing to the imagination. Lei preferred soft, silky garments, often wearing transparent fabric or just a flimsy covering of her nether regions. "Lusty Lei", they had named their queen, and all who served her were as proud of her lovely body as they were of her sharp intellect as they executed their little queen's battle plans.
Her long hair swaying softly in the breeze as she glided along the courtyard in her four-inch stilettos, Lei called out to her messengers to bring her the latest war reports. She frowned a little at the new alliance's tactics, and then switched to World Chat mode on her handheld console. Great. Lord Phuel, the loud-mouthed, drunken, lovable fool was extolling the virtues of her womanly physique to the entire server. He would surely attract the attention of her RL husband, and Lei shook her head, rolled her eyes, and turned the channel off. Enough of that nonsense.
She switched to blue channel and looked across her domain with a sad little smirk of regret, remembering all of her warrior comrades who were no longer in the fight. Gumberculs, Juddfok, CanyonMan, Shizuka, PunkNoFX, Shanda, Dirty... Closing her eyes as she thought about the last name, she fought against a sharp pang of loneliness at his absence. Fun. That's what she was missing. He had been a welcome diversion from the constant battles, NPC attacks, planning and coaching of other young Lords & Ladies. Dirty's jokes and constant teasing got her through weeks of game play, and she missed him keenly. And the RL phone conversation they had the previous night made it abundantly clear that he was gone from Evony for good, especially when he asked her to put his account away into another former PlanB friend's alliance.
CRAP. War declared. The glaring red letters flashed across her console and her heart almost skipped a beat. RAVENS?! What had Reformed leaders done to aggravate them? She checked over each of her 10 cities and 100 heroes, and glanced at the citadel in the Northeast quadrant of Swabia. B O N E S. His flag was now crimson. Again. Then she laughed, causing #1 to glance at her questioningly. "Is everything in order, my lady?" he asked, concerned. "Yes, yes, it's fine", she replied. "Carry on. All cities send 8 waves each to NPC5s in the next 45 minutes, keep #1s to defend in garrison until I check on some things." With a swish of her skirts, she gave the final command, turned on her heels and headed to the bath that was waiting, part of her morning and evening routine.

As Lei slipped out of her garments, tied her hair back and lowered herself into the steamy tub, she sighed again. B O N E S. Why was it that name always made her tingle? She had chatted with him a few times over the past few weeks, flirted outrageously with him and even wondered if she should join his alliance. And was pleasantly surprised at the 20-year old's sexy voice during their brief Vent conversation. "hmmm...I wonder how big is cock is?" Lei wanted to see him in blue chat. But there had been so much bitterness between the clans when PlanB disbanded....
"Fuck!! You fuckin' bastard!!" Lei squealed as she dodged a thrown dagger she noticed in her peripheral vision. She instinctively tried to cover her naked chest as she was violently startled out of her morning daydreams with VLD's sudden appearance. The dagger made a soft thunk as it embedded itself into one of the Cherry wood privacy screens surrounding her bath.
"And Aloha to you too, darlin'! Just makin sure you're still alert!" Her RL husband's casual words and evil little chuckle as he reached into her bath and tweaked her nipple made her even more exasperated. He paused slightly as she pressed the tip of her own dagger a bit more firmly into his crotch.
"Now, now, no need to get nasty, my love. We all know you're good at that." The cat & mouse game they played with each other during his time off was all a farce, and they both knew it. He had been conquered by her army and had only one city left, although even at the peak of his power he was no match for her. She giggled as he bent down to kiss the side of her neck and reminded her of the duties of reality. "Mmmmm..You smell yummy. I gotta fly out to D.C. tomorrow, so make me a good dinner to go with my desert".
"Oh my god, you're such a jerkwad, VLD." Lei replied, splashing him with the vanilla & sandalwood scented bathwater as he reached in the sunken tub to insert a finger into her slit. Then two. She moaned a little, then pouted as he stuck out his tongue, pulled his arm out of the water and patted her head with the hand that was still dry..
"Wait til after dinner, my little minx. And check on the Merc & Punk accounts when you get a chance." VLD grumbled, then paused. "I'm quitting the game before I fly out and some asshole already started scouting me."
"Who was it?" she whispered.
"Fucker's name is 'B O N E S' ", VLD replied gruffly.
Lei's eyes widened in delight. "Oh?!! He's sexy!" Then she giggled as he made a disgusted frown before standing back up and walking out of the room.
Well there was no mistaking where his priorities were, she thought, and hurried to finish her bath. VLD and Lei seldom met or talked in-game anymore, especially as he was prone to fits of jealous rage whenever one of her admirers would start getting a little too friendly. Lei lathered the creamy soap all over her skin as she thought about the RAVENS again. The past week, she'd been so busy with RL that her Evony domain had to be put into stasis most of the time, and although she knew Reformed was doing better and even its fledgling members were able to coordinate attacks much more effectively, her current clan was no match for the seasoned warriors in RAVENS. And she was getting tired of coaching them. Almost tired enough to quit the game herself.
No. She was going to keep playing. But it was time for a drastic change.
A few moments later, skin still steaming from her hot bath, Lei returned to her home office. Her naked, glistening body was visible to all the neighbors outside as the shades were wide open, but she cared little for what they thought of her. She threw a slightly damp towel onto her yoga ball before sitting down, and once again immersed herself in the world of Evony.
They now had a new alliance host. And she owed him no allegiance. Lei checked on her cities, read a few messages that had been sent to the entire alliance, then switched to another computer to check on the two accounts VLD had been in charge of. And shook her head in dismay as she read the messages he had exchanged.
