Part Thirteen: Falling into Place
Chapter Forty-Five
ADRIANNA
It had taken Furia and I a lot less time to get back to Alkandra. We didn't bother going through the mines since Arbor had already caught us, so it took just two days in our swift vampire forms before we saw the candle-lit skyline of Alkandra between the trees. We transformed back to our elven forms, donned our stately robes, and rubbed the wrinkles out of them. I peered out from the tree line, and looked both ways. The agrarian fields were empty, the last harvest already done. No one would see us scamper across, and once we got to the river, all we had to do wasβYavara dropped in front of me.
"Boo." She giggled, "Did you two enjoy your trip to the Highlands? How did Elena look?"
"G-g-g-good." Furia stammered beside me.
Yavara smirked at me, "Much more attractive in person than on the mirror, right, Adrianna? How much money did you give her?"
I let a long breath out through my nose, and mumbled, "A million."
"Ooo, and the going rate for an Alkandran whore is just ten a night." She pouted her lip sarcastically, and put a disingenuous hand on my shoulder, "Obviously you two aren't normal whores. Why, foreign dignitaries might pay thousands for a night with you! All-inclusive, of course. Nothing off-limits. No safe-words. Foreigners can have such strange appetites, and Alkandra has a reputation to uphold." She adjusted my robe, and smiled broadly, "If you have the right entrepreneurial spirit, it should only take you a year to pay me back the money I so generously loaned you. I know you won't disappoint me, Governess, nor you, Magistrate."
"Yes, Your Highness." We grumbled in unison.
"Is that the kind of attitude world-class whores have?" She demanded, and shoved her hands up our robes. Her fingers entered us, the index and middle penetrating our slits, the ring and pinky pushing into our asses, both hands stirring expertly, making us weak in the knees. "Come now, ladies," She growled in our ears, "let me hear some of that Alkandran enthusiasm."
"Yes, Yavara!" We cried out together, each of us leaning into her shoulder. She grinned delightedly, and took my kiss on her lips, long and passionate, before she did the same with Furia.
"I missed you two." She sighed, "This place has been so on edge the past few days." She licked my ear as I gyrated on her hand, saturating her palm with my dripping nectar, "This city needs you, Adrianna. I need you. It's been falling apart since you left, and you're the only one who can keep it together."
"I left Eva and Soraya in charge." I gasped, undulating against her.
"Something happened. It's shaken them."
"Oh no, what now?!" Furia half-moaned, half-cried.
"No one died, but... well, let me finish you two off, then we'll talk."
ELENA
I breathed a long sigh of relief when our carriage rolled through the gates of Bentius. We had encountered warg riders in the night, undoubtedly a platoon of Gorlok's terrorists, and they'd shadowed us all the way there. Had I not stood prominently at the front of the caravan, I was certain we would've been ambushed. Our terrifying escort drew me some strange looks from the watchmen, but they no longer treated me with contempt. When my mere presence staved-off a pack of half-ton wolves, they treated me with a bit more respect.
I went into the back of the carriage and kissed Huntiata goodbye, then made my way into my manor. My guards nodded to me, and I nodded tiredly back, and stumbled into my bedroom to flop on the bed.
"Come to rescue me?" Sofia giggled. She was handcuffed to the railings of the headboard, dressed in garters and fishnet stockings. She was on her knees, her arms outstretched before her, her fat little ass wiggling excitedly in the air. I suddenly wasn't very tired.
"How long were you like this?" I grinned at her.
"They sounded the approach bell thirty minutes ago. I had to sprint to get here before you." Then she cleared her throat, and effected a higher voice, "The bad men handcuffed me to the bed, Elena! They were going to have their way with me, but then you came, and they scurried out the window." She wiggled her ass, and arched her back, "Thank god you're here to free me."
I walked toward her, my heels clicking on the boards. She watched me with an expectant smile, her blue irises tracking me to the corners of her eyes. I climbed onto the bed, and knelt behind her.
"Elena, the keys are in the box." She giggled, motioning to my box of toys on the mantle.
"I'm not going to get the keys, Sofia." I said, and grabbed her ass.
"What?!" She cried in faux alarm, "Elena, what are you doing?!"
"Those men were my men, you little fool." I chuckled sardonically, kneading my fingers into the succulent fat, "They left you hear for me to play with. All. Night. Long."
"No!" Sofia cried.
"Yessss." I hissed, and spread her thick alabaster cheeks. My eyes fell upon the ruby plug in her ass, and my heart skipped a beat. "Oh, Sofia." I muttered, "It's beautiful."
"I practiced putting it in just like you showed me." She smiled around her shoulder, "It felt weird at first, like I was pooping in reverse, but then I got used to it." Her smile turned wicked, "Then I started to like it. I want you to fuck me like I'm the Dark Queen."
"Like you're the Dark Queen," I echoed, feeling once again like a total piece of shit. But my guilt was easily overpowered by my arousal, and so I compartmentalized it, and focused instead on the sparkling ruby that bejeweled Sofia's perfect, virgin, eighteen-year-old pink star.
