I had left the King in his rooms telling him I knew I could help. I walked to the grate hall that was used for dinning feeling her presents. I knew she was close as I sat at the head of the big table. The maid had just set down my plate of food when the door by the hearth flew open. Knowing whom it was and expecting an attack I reached for my staff. I turned looking over my shoulder.
By the gods! She was beautiful! Her hair was flaming red and so long it touched her thighs with wisps blowing back as she walked. Her thin black gown bellowed out behind her as with the grace of a bird in flight she walked to the big fireplace and stopped. There were thousands of tiny yellow sparks in her hair as she turned and looked at me. Standing with her feet spread shoulder width apart I looked her up and down saw that her gown was so shear it was letting the light from the fire behind her highlight her legs. I could see the lighter color of her thighs as the material brushed against them and even make out the out line of her unkempt bush as she looked at me.
“Sir Knight. Are you the slayer?” she asked.
Still holding my staff to fend her off if need be. I nodded simply nodded “Yes.” To her.
She leaned to me slightly and I grew even tenser. I watched as she touched her thumb and four fingers together. An ark of blue flame ran between them as they touched.
“They tell me you have killed many dragons.”
Relaxing just slightly I picked up a drumstick.
“Must be lies.”
“I am Glenda ruler of the north land. The land of the Red Dragons”
“I know who you are My Lady. She pointed at me and again the fire arced from her fingers as she moved. “I didn’t get your name Sir Knight.”
I let my eyes devourer her as I looked at her drinking her beauty like it was fine wine. She turned side ways to me letting a slit in her gown open to expose a bare foot. She moved again and her long leg came into view all the way up to her hip. “I am known as Slayer.”
I could feel my self-slipping to her as if I was being pulled by something. Her skin was milky white in the dim light.
“What dragon has this fat King asked you to slay?” her eyes narrowed as she stepped to me making the little fire flick all through her hair.
I made no move to answer her as she stepped closer. My eyes were drawn to hers in a way I didn’t understand. God I loved them! So green! I was suddenly falling, twisting in the dark night. I had to reach it. I had to touch it. Knowing I would not be safe until I reached and touched my staff. There I had it in my hand and felt the power it carried rush through me!
It brought me back, back from where? Then I knew it was true as I came back from that dark place. It was the place she had taken all the other slayers before me. Taken them into a dark world, a world I hoped to never see.
There was a smile on her lips. She thought she had me, until I spoke. “Yours, the red one.”
I pulled my staff in front of me holding it under the table as she took two more steps. Her large breasts drew my eyes. Her pink nipples calling to me through the thin black cloth. I slowly stoked my wood knowing it would protect me from her dark magic.
“Do you fear this dragon?”
“I fear nothing madam.”
