Harp stretched his arms behind his back as he slowed from a run to a walk – and spent just a few moments marveling. He was alive. Not only was he
alive
, he was free. His hand went to his broad neck and he grinned slightly to himself. That damn bridle had leashed him to humanity for far, far, far too long. He shook his head slowly as he stepped around a tree and found himself near a brook that was making its way slowly to the sea, burbling and laughing happily. Harp smiled and knelt down beside the brook, splashing some water on his face and chest.
Shame about abandoning that cute succubus chick,
he thought.
Eh. She'll be fine.
Harp heard a faint
crack –
the sound of a twig snapping. His brow furrowed and his ears twitched up as he looked around, his body tensing.
A voice remarkably similar to his whispered in the back of his mind.
She was a bitch, wasn't she?
Harp frowned slowly. He...well, she had been a little-
Fucking humans. Humans. Fucking humans, tying me up? Use me as a
horse
? Me? Harperias, a Golden Horned Unicorn. Didn't even let a virgin ride me-
Harp put his hands to his head, his own thoughts coiling and twisting around in his mind. He heard the snap of a twig again – something was drawing closer. He staggered to his feet from the side of the creek, one of his hooves dipping into the water. He shook his head, gritting his teeth as he tried to get in a thought edgewise around his own voice.
Enslave me, will they? There's only one good thing about humans – their pussies. Mm, their women are fucking fine. Want to hold them down. Push them down. Fuck them. Fuck em. Fuck. Fuck.
His cock was hard as a rock – the flat tip welling with pre-cum. He could practically
feel
how good it would be to plunge it into a struggling human woman, to take back what had been stolen from him. Years of indignities. All of it. He'd get it back. He'd get it all-
Harp gritted his teeth, his eyes closed up tight, his horn glowing as the dark shape from the bushes grew larger – and a pair of glowing red eyes flared as Harp screamed and screamed and...
Laughed.

The village that Albus found took the better part of two days to reach, even with flight to get over the worst parts of the terrain. By the time she had arrived, Sam was tired in places she hadn't known could get tired. Her wings ached, even tucked away inside of her body, and her shoulder and spine ached in tandem. Her
butt
ached from holding her tail in the proper place for aerodynamic flight. And worst of all, her sex ached – and knowing why didn't make it any easier to deal with. She had had to hold her hands before her during the entire flight to keep one from reaching between her legs.
But now, she was able to wander into town and get a bunch of villagers looking at her as if she owed them something.
Sam had decided to go for something more conservative than a skintight leather outfit that showed off her sex and nipples, even if part of her would have
loved
it. Instead, she walked in wearing the same kind of metal brigandine and tabard that a wandering warrior would have, with her sword sheathed in a scabbard at her hip. She waved at the villagers who looked at her, smiling shyly. "H-Hey!" she said.
A tall, limber looking woman with a spread of freckles across her cheeks walked forward, her hands on her hips, her dress swishing a few inches above the muddy ground. She looked tough, like she had worked her whole life. She also had an amazing rack. Huge and juicy and straining against the dress. Sam bit her lip slightly, already picturing laying her – sucking on those nipples, maybe finding out if she was- no! Focus!
"Who are you?" The woman asked. "And what brings you here?"
"I'm a, uh, squire," Sam said.
The woman narrowed her eyes.
"W-well, I was...my knight master got, uh, killed," she said, trying to look as crestfallen as possible. "By trolls."
"Oh,
very
convincing," Albus muttered from behind her – his spectral form invisible to everyone but Sam, thankfully.
The woman looked as convinced as Albus' sarcastic voice predicted. "Uh-huh." She said.
"I can pay for board and room," Sam said, nodding. "I just need to rest here, to gather my strength for the next step of the trip." She reached into her belt pouch, getting out some of the gold she had salvaged from the saddlebags that hadn't been damaged in the battle. She laid some of the gold coins in the woman's palm. Her demeanor changed entirely – the woman went from narrowed eyes and suspicious looks to beaming at her.
"Well, then!" she said, gesturing. "Come on – I can kip you in my place. My name is Vela and I'm the headwoman of this village."
"Samantha," Sam said, smiling.
Vela lead her into the small home that she made her own. It was a single story house, and the interior was filled with the smell of animals. A large goat stood in the corner of the room, and a few pigs were walking about. The floor was strewn with straw, and there was a pair of beds in the corner of the building, one of them containing a sleeping baby of about six months of age. Sam bit her lip slightly – looking around at the squalid chamber. She had grown up her whole life in the palace – this was, uh.
Different.
"This is my home," Vela said. "The animals keep us warm during the winter – which is coming soon." She sniffed, slightly. "My husband should be home soon."
Sam's brain
twinged
. She heard a dozen tiny permutations of tone and meaning in that one sentence. The slightly dismissive sniff? Vela wasn't happy. Dissatisfaction came easily to married couples, especially those who felt they had little choice in being partnered with someone their whole life. But there was still a hint of warmth and a mixture of feelings that denoted some measure of lust. She may be irritated with elements of her husband, but other aspects were still quite pleasing. There was also a tiny element of suspicion in there – but Sam wasn't quite sure
what
. All in all, Sam's brain felt like she could have Vela in bed with a few choice words and a grope or two.
Sam bit her lip hard.
On the one hand...infidelity was wrong. Cruel, even.
On the other hand, that
ass
. She watched as Vela went to the stew-pot that burbled in the corner of the room, starting to stir it. Vela's dress didn't exactly hide the fact that she had an ample, cushy rump that Sam could easily see sinking her teeth into. She breathed in happily at the thought – and then started when the door behind her opened. Albus ghost – glaring at her with clear loathing – floated in behind Vela's husband. He was a bulky bear of a man, with a large bushy beard, an exposed chest that had quite a bit of hair, and a body built for tearing tree trunks out of the ground with his bare hands. His shoulders were slabbed with muscle and while his belly was large, it wasn't the fat of corpulent nobles.
It was the expanse of fat that came from someone who ate heartily.
"Vela!" he boomed. "I don't remember us owning a kitten this attractive!"
"Hey!" Sam squeaked – and tried to resist the urge to grow a pair of cat eats.
Vela laughed. "Gordon, you're home early. Good."
Again, that whisper of suspicion. Sam's brain
twinged
again.
Gordon closed the distance between him and his wife with a few easy strides, picking her up and planting a kiss on her mouth. It was quite a kiss – long, involved. Deep. Sam felt the ache inside of her actually fade someone as she watched them intently. Gordon squeezed his wife's butt, his fingers firm and assertive. Sam almost sighed – the ache had faded from a deep
