Speaking in Tongues

 

Amedeo Gnaeus Servius stood amongst the dead and dying and he could barely breathe. He saw his great father dead in his true form on a field near the Tiber River and regret washed through him unlike anything he had ever felt. The man that had fathered him had been cut down by another tribe of basilisk from the north. Many of the warriors bowed low before him and it truly hit him that he was now rex. His slightly younger brother Fabius also bowed before him reluctantly and he shook in the realization that he had much responsibility.

 

“I can only hope with our victory and our losses this day that it will usher in some kind of peace. I will work tirelessly my people to insure that our kind sees the light of day and this pestilence will no longer bother our kind. I can only hope my great father will bless my reign and give me his blessing and half his greatness so that I may continue his goodness.” He said from a small perch above the devastation.

 

Fabius looked up and rolled his eyes as his brother gave his little speech. Their father had been a great man but had always favored his precious first born. Amedeo looked like his beautiful red wife; Antonia.

 

“Stupid bitch and her fucking bastard brat.” He muttered in annoyance.

 

“Watch yourself my distant cousin. It may not be so wise to bash your half brother the day he ascends the throne si?” Adrastus Agrippa said behind him.

 

“Si you are correct cousin. Kiss his ass as always. Are you fucking him by chance?” Fabius asked curling his lip.

 

“No. I am not Gabrielus.” Adrastus snorted softly.

 

“Stupid white.” He said pushing past his second cousin and heading towards the body of his father.

 

Adrastus sighed and he hated that he had lost his cousin this day. He had been a good man and a great warrior but an even better rex. He knew Amedeo would do just as well and prayed for the new reign. It was going to need it seeing as some of the red tribes were so incredibly hostile. Amedeo's mother had been kidnapped and taken by the new rex's father because of her beauty; it had just so happened that they had been happy together. He sighed and he trailed behind his new rex and his saw his friend Gabrielus across the field. He was removing his sword from a red and he stared at Adrastus. He nodded and Adrastus acknowledged him.

 

“Adrastus come please.” Amedeo called.

 

“Si majesty.” He replied and he jogged to catch up.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Amedeo fell exhausted upon his bed and it had been an incredibly long day. He stared out his window and weariness settled into his soul. His coronation had gone off without a hitch and the ensuing banquets had lasted for days. He had set up games for the surviving reds and he intended for them to kill each other in his arena. He may have been half red but he felt no loyalty to the bastards at all. He stared up at his ceiling and he saw a hand maiden in his door.

 

“Si?” He asked curious.

 

“I was just curious if his majesty required anything before I retired, si?” She asked bowing low.

 

“I am well Cassia. You may go onto bed if you so wish.” He said yawning.

 

His head hand maiden stepped in and her long black hair was down and she wore a sheer stolla. His reddened eyes perused his form and he was not known for being a chaste individual. She was no stranger to his bed of course but he valued how well she ran his household so he tried to keep his use of her body to a minimum. She neared his bed and her light red eyes locked with his.

 

“I could give you massage my rex if you so please.” She whispered seductively.

 

“Si that would please me.” Amedeo whispered back entranced.

 

She unhooked her stolla and it fell to floor. He was quite pleased and he grabbed her quickly and she was under him. His lips began to graze her lips and move all along her throat and her fairly flat chest. Amedeo was not that impressed with most mammals but the females and their beautiful breasts; he really enjoyed staring at those. He did not know why but they just seemed so extra feminine. Cassia was gasping and moaning under him as he did pluck and roll the little bit of nipple she did have. Adrastus told him of his bed companions. He swore he did not have intercourse with the mammals but he did not believe him. Amedeo did not understand how a man could have a pair of those luscious mounds of flesh and not taste them at every opportunity. His mind was wandering too much and he went back to making the black basilisk female under him moan and scream for him. He always delighted in a partners end. He was just that arrogant to think he was that good. He entered her in one long thrust and she arched her body towards him. He never bothered to pull back. He had plenty of money and if he did have any children then they would be amply provided for. Cassia was screaming his name and he felt the familiar tingle in his groin and belly. He thrust one last time and he released his viperish noise as he emptied his hot seed into her tight body. He kissed her lightly and he pulled back. Amedeo fell to his back and she was sweating and getting her breath. He had a smirk on his face and his beautiful head of household was quite pleased.

 

“The amore is good, si?” He asked in an arrogant tone.

 

“Si.” She groaned as she forced herself up.

 

He leaned forward quickly and playfully nipped a butt cheek. She yelped and blushed as he grinned at her.

 

“Not done yet Cassia. Come here.” He commanded.

 

“Si?” She asked shyly.

 

He lay on his back and Amedeo pulled her to him. He was grinning the whole time and he helped her to straddle his face. Her mouth was agape and he decided that he would sleep longer in the morning after he enjoyed a delicious meal. She began to scream again and he was indeed enjoying this.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

He was reclining on a chaise and Gabrielus was giving him accounts of chasing the reds back towards the Alps. Amedeo was eating barely braised deer and it was incredible. He could tell something was bothering his very good friend and he jerked his head for all the servants to leave.

 

“Sit and talk to me.” He commanded.

 

“All is well my rex.” The white said sighing.

 

“No it is not. Remember I know you Gabrielus. I have known you awhile now and you are upset still over Valerian?” Amedeo asked.

 

“Si. He feels betrayed that I was made general in his place.” He said looking down.

 

“Have you told him how you feel?” His rex asked.

 

“No. I cannot be you Amedeo. I have to show you all that I am just as good as any black and I deserve my place and I am not just some pleasure slave!” He growled.

 

“Anyone who sees you on a battlefield would have no doubt of your ability Gabrielus. You and Valerian need to talk if only to work out the difference. I need my army in accord right now because of the war.” Amedeo stated frankly.

 

“I shall speak with him this day then majesty.” The white said sighing again.

 

Amedeo nodded and Gabrielus walked on to his own villa. He sent a message to his vice general and he was full of apprehension. He was shocked when Valerian phased to his villa. He was angry and it showed.

 

“You called on me?” He growled.

 

“Si. I called on you. Amedeo wants this discord over and I agree.” He snapped.

 

“I have been in the army longer then you General Gabrielus. I earned the right to lead our men.' Valerian snapped.

 

Gabrielus was annoyed and he had already started drinking wine in abundance. He was no coward but facing the object of his want; he was a coward. Valerian's long black hair was down and his dark red eyes perused the white. Gabrielus had green eyes which he had never seen in a serpent but it was alluring. Valerian understood now why when a white was found they were kept as slaves. They were thinner and more dainty then the blacks or reds. They were softer and Gabrielus was no exception but Valerian had seen him fight. He also knew this white was brilliant and could be vicious. Valerian was angry at himself as well because when he looked at Gabrielus; he saw someone he wanted, desperately.

 

“Should you like some wine as well and may we sit down and speak like civilized beings?” the white asked.

 

“Si.” He growled.

 

Valerian grabbed the decanter and actually drank from it like a commoner. Gabrielus sipped his and he watched the black basilisk and he shoved down his need. He suddenly downed his wine and called for more. It did not take long for either man to become completely drunk and they had been arguing terribly over battle strategies and more. Valerian got so furious that he stood up and pushed Gabrielus against his chaise and lifted his fist. Gabrielus's eyes began to bleed darker green and he was angry too.

 

“Do it and I will kill you.” He snarled.

 

Valerian lost his head and crashed his mouth against the white's. Gabrielus was so surprised and did not stop it. He opened his mouth to receive the thrust of tongue and demanding way. The dark haired basilisk tasted the wine and the white shifted under him. He heard him moan loudly and he suddenly jerked back.

 

“Send your servants away now!” Valerian demanded hoarsely.

 

“Si.” Gabrielus managed to say.

 

Gabrielus stumbled as he stood and he called on his head of household. He dismissed his whole household and Valerian was immediately behind him. He pinned him to a column and gripped his hips tightly.

 

“I am so angry at myself; by the Gods I need you.” He husked in the reptilian ear of the white haired man.

 

“Why fight me and just not tell me Valerian? Do you think I would deny you?” The other man said shaking.

 

“I am afraid of myself. Gods you are perfect.” He said growling harder.

 

Valerian tore into the tunic Gabrielus wore and grasped the erection that Gabrielus had. The white threw his head back and moaned loudly as the black began to stroke him.

 

“Do you truly like both? Do you truly like femmina too?” Valerian asked in his ear.

 

“I like the person. I have no preference for sex. I like who I like.” He admitted.

 

Valerian's hand was stroking him harder and Gabrielus could not think as the beautiful vice general worked his stiff flesh.

 

“Come for me damn you!” He hissed in the white's ear.

 

“Not here. Not like this.” Gabrielus said fighting back his need to just give in.

 

“You want me to lay you back on a bed and take my time? Is that what you wish Gabrielus?” Valerian asked darting his tongue along his ear.

 

“Si. I am not a slave Valerian. I am not here for your pleasure whenever you feel.” The white haired man stated as he panted out.

 

“Is that how it is?” His vice general said with heavy growls.

 

“Si or you can leave.” He stated flatly.

 

Valerian pulled Gabrielus towards the chaise again and ripped his tunic from him completely. His red eyes perused the pale, naked flesh and the prominent erection was on display. Hunger ripped through him and he watched the green eyes of the white as a smirk passed over his lips.

 

“Well the Gods just made you perfection.” He said with severe lust.

 

“I am glad you think so but I am so hard right now you fiend!” Gabrielus snapped.

 

Valerian fell to his knees and spread his thighs wide. He watched in surprise and he yelled out when Valerian without preamble swallowed his member. His mind was gone and he could only concentrate on the pleasure he was getting. He was more then attracted to him but he had never suspected the black felt the same. He nearly screamed when he did come and Valerian had a look of satisfaction on his face. Gabrielus was trembling because of the strength of his release and his vice general stood up slowly.

 

“What?” He asked dazed.

 

“I am selfish. My turn.” Valerian smiled.

 

“Si.” He said watching him disrobe.

 

The black was magnificent and his general was salivating. He pressed his body to his and attacked his mouth. Gabrielus grasped both of their cocks and Valerian moaned into the bruising kiss. He thrust against the white's member and could feel the other man tremble more. He broke away from Gabrielus's pouty mouth and he was full of need and passion.

 

“Sorry. I am sorry but I need you. Now!” He growled loudly.

 

Gabrielus was surprised and unsure of him but when the vice general made himself back away and he began to lick and kiss around his balls and perineum then he got the idea. He was groaning and moaning loudly as the vice general prepared him. Gabrielus had some experience but never this. He felt the black slip a finger into him and he gasped in pleasure as he worked to prepare him fully. It occurred to him what was happening and he was not sure he was ready for it but it seemed that Valerian was more then ready. It seemed now that it was out; it seemed he was claiming his general.

 

“You are nervous? Do not be. I will not harm you Gabrielus. I wanted you like this. It rankles my soul that you were put in charge of me. I wanted to order you about you see.” The black admitted as he slipped another finger into him.

 

“I am not a slave! I am my father's heir and I am worthy!” He growled out and he saw stars suddenly as Valerian's fingers found what they sought.

 

“Si. I wanted to order you about because I wanted you. I wanted to feel you and touch you. I thought I would have to work closely with you.” He explained as he massaged the prostate of the white.

 

Gabrielus whined loudly as his body was getting close to heaven and Valerian slowly pulled his fingers back.

 

“Tell me si. Tell me you want me.” He asked the beautiful man under him.

 

“Si. Only if I can do the same to you later.” Gabrielus said watching his face.

 

“Si.” He nodded.

 

Gabrielus nodded and Valerian's face held promise. He had Gabrielus arranged and he pressed himself slowly into the lither man. The white's mouth fell open and he panted slowly as the pain hit him.

 

“Never?” Valerian asked choking.

 

“No.” He said biting his lips.

 

“Gabrielus! So tight. You feel so good.” He whined above him.

 

The white took a deep breath as Valerian eased himself in deeper. When his vice general pressed against his prostate then he bucked his hips. The black made a viper noise as the white began to moan for him again. He began to speak and it was filthy. It was utterly nasty what General Gabrielus said and Valerian was struck dumb. He felt so good and he was so beautiful. He growled and kissed him passionately and he wrapped a hand around the white's neglected cock. He began to piston his hips faster and Gabrielus could not breathe well. It was so good and it was too hot suddenly. He arched and his member in Valerian's hand began to release his thick, hot seed. His passage constricted in his orgasm and Valerian cried out as he thrust once more and reached his own mind numbing climax. He collapsed against the white and they both were catching their breath.

 

“Stay with me?” Gabrielus asked in a drugged tone.

 

“Si. After sleep I want you to fuck me into a coma.” His lover growled.

 

The white basilisk chuckled and stared straight up.

 

“Si. I think I can manage. We must keep our amore discreet. I am not ashamed of you or it but it would not do for the soldiers to know I favored you.” He said with exhaustion lacing his tone.

 

“I understand the need but I am going to taste you every chance I get.” Valerian growled again.

 

He surprised Gabrielus by licking and laving his tongue along his belly and chest. He realized that this was going to be tricky. He would have to be careful. Amore was grand and all but emotions were messy. Gabrielus did not want to love as it would lead down a nasty road. No, he would not love and only enjoy what they had.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Amedeo was reading the many accounts of the battle and he was glad that Gabrielus had taken his command so seriously. Valerian was working smoothly within the army now and it was much better. Adrastus handed him more documents and he looked over at his distant cousin and best friend.

 

“You are thinking si?” Amedeo asked.

 

“Si. Always. Your brother needs to be handled my rex. His mouth is terrible but there are those who speak out against you because of your mother.” Adrastus stated thoughtfully.

 

“My mother has been dead a long while. She died giving birth to me and they still speak out against her?” The young rex asked in anger.

 

“Your padre deified her upon her death. It was not a popular move.” His cousin stated.

 

“I realize that but I was a babe. Stupid plebian assholes!” He said standing.

 

“Some of the reptiles further north have been sending envoys wishing for alliances. The defeats against the reds have not gone unnoticed.” Adrastus stated.

 

“Si. There was one from the Celtic Wyvern.” He said considering.

 

“Wyverns are cannibalistic and rather cruel Amedeo. I am concerned their ways and ours would not coincide.” His advisor stated.

 

“No fear Adrastus! I am a charming man no? When have I never been unable to make peace? We shall open dialogue with these cold climate lizards and see if we can be friendly, si?” Amedeo said picking up a chalice of wine and draining it.

 

“I hope for the best my rex but I fear the worst. I would hate for you to be so trusting. You have been in power for some time but please remember these creatures are not us.” Adrastus stated bowing.

 

“Si they are not us. They are wyvern!” he chuckled as he downed more wine.

 

“Gabrielus is at the fronts si?” His advisor asked.

 

“Si. I know of his amor with Valerian but no one else does.” Amedeo stated picking up a piece of beef and eating it.

 

“Is that really wise Amedeo? Feelings of such a deep nature have no place…” Adrastus tried to say.

 

“You worry too much! Go home to your lovely mammals and enjoy deep sleep! I still cannot believe you do not partake.” His rex said smirking.

 

“Their heat is wonderful and it feels better for sleep my rex. I am hoping for something deeper.” He said actually blushing.

 

“You almost make me think you are a virgin my cousin.” He laughed as he walked towards his own rooms.

 

Adrastus sighed and he stared at his rex; he shook his head. The fairly young rex had sired four children already and showed no signs of settling down. He was good to his off spring, money wise they were well cared for and their materna were very well off women. Amedeo just did not see the need for discretion and Adrastus always cleaned up his messes. He saw a runner come in and the young soldier was bloody. Amedeo immediately went to him and it was obvious the boy was not long for the world.

 

“Many pardons majesty. General Gabrielus is terribly wounded and Vice General Valerian is dead.” He said shaking from blood loss.

 

“What in the God's names happened?” He asked in shock.

 

“The reds sir. They attacked near Umbrii. There were cockatrices as well majesty.” The young black said slowing closing his eyes.

 

Amedeo gently laid down the body of the soldier and he was pissed off. He had not been in battle in a long while simply because Gabrielus was so capable. He stared at Adrastus and his advisor nodded. The reds had brought the lowly cockatrices to the battles to thwart them and use the stupid low level daemons as fodder. Amedeo yelled for his armor and he went to his private rooms and went to his wall. He reached up and his arm as he did so. It morphed into his true form and Adrastus brought up the rear already in armor of his own; he had strapped his nasty looking broad sword to his hip and both men nodded.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Gabrielus was in a medical tent and the healer was tending him. He could not get the image of Valerian throwing himself in front of a venom ball for him. He shut his green eyes and he shut out the pain as his vice general's last words had been; I love you. He watched Amedeo storm in and his rex knelt near his cot.

 

“I am so sorry for the loss of your subordinate.” He said softly.

 

“Si thank you majesty.” The white said only staring straight up.

 

“I know there was deep comradeship.” Amedeo stated bowing his head.

 

Gabrielus would always be loyal to this man; to his friend who gave him freedom and gave him honors. Amedeo Servius had the white's sword and devotion unto death because the rex had given him respect as more then a slave. Gabrielus nodded and he saw his other good friend behind the young rex.

 

“Hello Agrippa.” He stated in a tired voice.

 

“Si. Hello Gabrielus. You look like hell.” Adrastus stated.

 

“Si thank you. I managed to drive them north to Felsina.” He said shutting out his anguish and focusing on mayhem.

 

Amedeo nodded and took Gabrielus's hand for but a moment. He squeezed it but not for too long. He only wanted his friend to know he knew he was in pain. Adrastus and the mixed rex walked out of the tent and went in the direction of the troops. The young rex looked up on a hill and noticed a femmina for a second and then she was gone. It had been a split second and he questioned what he had seen. He shook his head and then walked on. He intended to crush the reds once and for all. If it meant making alliances with the nasty wyvern then so be it. Amedeo directed his men north towards Felsina and he would have a showdown with the reds.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hrodgar stood near the river and he finished slitting the throat of a black and he stared down hatefully. He stared across the way and he recognized the brother of the current Latium king.

 

“You said he would come you filth.” He nearly spit.

 

“I want the bastard gone as much as you.” Fabius hissed.

 

“Such a worthy little brother you are. If he finds out you have been feeding us information then you will be hung by your entrails.” Hrodgar laughed.

 

“You let me worry of my own guts, si?” He growled.

 

“You really think him unworthy of the throne?” The red asked.

 

“He is half red and you have to ask me that question. Your kind is not worthy of my lands. Your sister was a beautiful whore and nothing more Hrodgar.” Fabius stated in disgust.

 

“Just see that he comes you worthless black whelp.” He growled.

 

Fabius phased and Hrodgar had news for his ally by necessity but he had no intentions of any black ruling the rich lands of Latium. He had no intentions of letting such bounty go and the tide of the war was going quite well. He would face the whelp of nephew that was Amedeo Servius and he would annihilate the black basilisk once and for all. His tribe would be the masters of Europe and the others would cower.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

The bloodshed was horrible as they fought. Amedeo was swinging his sword and taking off heads. There was no mercy this battle and Adrastus followed his example. The ground ran red under their sandaled feet and it made a squishing sound as they fought. They were not fighting in their true forms yet; no one had become that desperate but the Latium Blacks were fighting well. It heartened them to see their rex in the midst of the battle and he fought well. Amedeo's eyes were glowing red in his beastly anger as he severed limbs and heads from the enemies. He again saw the apparition of the femmina and it startled him. It was a shadow of thing and she seemed a ghost. He could not make her out clearly but he had to fight on. The young rex saw the leader of the Danube Reds and he growled loudly. He cut his way through and he appeared in front of Hrodgar.

 

“You are in my lands bastardo!” He hissed.

 

“You mean I am in my soon to be lands retard.” The red laughed.

 

Amedeo said nothing else as he whirled around and his sword met the broadsword of his enemy. This was in fact his materna's brother but there was no love lost. Amedeo did not think of himself as red whatsoever so it really did not matter to him. He lost all preamble and he changed form. Hrodgar had not expected it and the younger man began to strike fast with deadly jaws and he avoided the stare of the powerful male. He too changed form and they began to strike like the serpents they were. Adrastus looked up from his own battles and he saw what was going on. It was a close match and he decided he should back up his rex.

 

“Tsk tsk. Going somewhere Agrippa?” Fabius asked from nearby.

 

The other black held a nasty smirk and Adrastus realized that this had been a trap. Several reds descended upon him and stabbed him quickly and mercilessly.

 

“Amedeo will die this die and without an heir; I will ascend the throne. You will die as well.” He said walking past his second cousin.

 

“You bastardo!” He yelled.

 

“Si well I am pure blood and that bastardo is not! I am more worthy of our kind then he.” He snarled in hatred.

 

Adrastus slowly fell to his knees and the blood loss was tremendous. He tried to yell the name of Amedeo but he was too much into his battle. Things looked quite grim and Fabius was on his way to murder his half brother when he saw a creature he had no clue what it was. With forced born from nature itself; he was slammed into boulder not far from Amedeo and the young rex was astonished to see his brother fall unconscious. Hrodgar saw his ally and he hissed and went to strike. Another blast of raw energy slammed into the red basilisk and he shrieked in agony as he fell to his side. Amedeo changed form and he could not make out what it was that had saved his life. He was in shock but he neared the red and shoved his sword through his massive eye socket and through his brain. It made a serpent sound as he slowly died. He noticed Adrastus on the ground and he pulled him up.

 

“My rex?” He gasped in pain.

 

“Did you see what happened?” He asked in shock.

 

“Not sure. I saw a shadow.” Adrastus said passing out.

 

“Gather our forces and put down the rest as I take my cousin to help!” He called to his commander.

 

“Si majesty!” The black bowed,

 

Amedeo held his best friend close and phased with him to Roma. They appeared in his own rooms and he called on his personal physician. He knew the war was not over but he had time now to gather his troops and make alliances. Something had saved his life and he was still in shock.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Amedeo was in bed and he was exhausted. Adrastus was on the mend and so was Gabrielus. His mind could not wrap around what it was that saved him. It had been two weeks and he had not slept well at all. He contemplated calling on a femmina but he was suddenly gripped in an invisible force.

 

“What the hell? Who is there?” He gasped.

 

He felt a warm tongue along his neck and he gasped harder and something covered his eyes. He growled in anger but the tongue turned into lips. Amedeo felt warm breaths and fangs dragging his throat and he was actually quite intrigued.

 

“Who are you?” He groaned out.

 

“A friend.” Came the soft whisper.

 

“A friend? You lick your friends femmina?” He asked almost laughing.

 

“You would be surprised basilisk. Be quiet.” She commanded.

 

He felt hair against his bare chest and her lips again found his neck. He groaned heavily as this creature touched and kissed softly.

 

“Tell me who you are!” He whined.

 

“No.” She said trailing fingers down his belly.

 

“Oh Gods!” He yelped as she touched his now straining flesh.

 

“Amedeo.” She whispered softly in his ear.

 

“How do you know my name femmina?” He cried out and gasped at the same time.

 

“Because you are rex.” The female chuckled.

 

The femmina licked at one of his flat nubs and he hissed softly and she pushed her body against his. He felt firm round flesh of mammalian breasts. He was in shock and she smirked at him unknowingly. He felt lips pressed to his and he groaned again as she swept her tongue and expertly kissed him wildly. He was trying to fight the heaviness holding him down but he could not move as her kiss drove him utterly wild. She slowly nibbled his lip and she pressed something into his mouth. He snarled as he tasted her nipple and by his Gods he was getting insane. This femmina was sweet and so tantalizing. She was utterly powerful and brazen whatever she was and he wanted to see her. He feverishly suckled her and she moaned for him. She jerked back and he heard a popping sound and he growled.

 

“I want to see you!” He hissed.

 

“No.” She whispered touching him more.

 

“Femmina! I am rex here and no one tells me no!” Amedeo snarled.

 

“I am of royal blood as well basilisk and you will know that you are not the only ruler. Should you like to feel me?” She asked in a luring way.

 

“Si!” He snapped.

 

She straddled his waist and descended on his staff. The heat hit him and he thrashed what little he could. He felt like he was loosing his mind.

 

“Amedeo.” The mammal female whispered in passion.

 

“Si! Oh Gods! Please let me touch you. Let me see you.” He begged.

 

“No. I cannot let you see me.” She groaned as she rounded her hips.

 

The heat was undoing him and he was closing in on feral.

 

“Did you save me?” He cried out in need.

 

“Yes.” She mumbled in a haze.

 

“Who are you?” He murmured rolling his head with his blind fold on.

 

“Someone who will stand behind you no matter the cost. Your enemies are my enemies and your passions are my passion.” Came her breathy response.

 

“Need to come. Please let me release. Please. You feel so good. You feel so good.” Amedeo actually whimpered out.

 

She leaned over him and he heard her harsh breathing. He felt fangs pierce his neck and he suddenly could use his arms. He crushed her to him as he spoke rapid Latin. Amedeo told her to bite harder. He told her how good she felt. He also told her he was going to die. The young rex's climax left him so weak that he fell limp and he could barely reach up to remove the blindfold. The femmina was gone but the sex had left him drained beyond endure. He realized he had encountered a succubus. He had seen her; he was positive he had seen her the day of the battle and his mind was working over time as his body was giving out. Amedeo had never seen the rare type of blood drinking daemon. They were coveted more so then a normal uppyr as with careful coupling they could make a basilisk out of their mind. He was determined to find her and possess her. He finally had to pass out and he had a huge smile plastered on his face.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Both Gabrielus and Adrastus stared at him as if he was crazy. He had told them of his nocturnal visit and they were shocked. Both of his best friends were seething in jealousy at his having even been around a succubus let alone to have relations with one.

 

“She did not give her name?” Adrastus asked.

 

“No. It was so odd. Her power was unreal. I know the females are strong of the empusae but I mean it was unreal.” Amedeo replied.

 

“She bit you?” Gabrielus asked leaning forward.

 

“Si. I am sure I saw her at the battle. She swore it was her that caused Hrodgar to fall. Do you think an empusae has that kind of power?” He asked doubtful.

 

“We do not know enough about them rex. We only know what the normal uppyr tell us and they do not talk much.” His advisor shrugged.

 

“I cannot believe she bit you! Lucky bastard.” Gabrielus muttered under his breath.

 

“Well find your own uppyr.” Amedeo snorted.

 

“Si, I will!” He retorted.

 

“Shit! I have to go to Britainia next month. I want to find this femmina! I want to have lots of amor with her. She is incredible!” The young rex stated wistfully.

 

“You can have any femmina you wish majesty.” Adrastus pointed out.

 

“Si and I wish for her. See if you can send out inquires. See if anyone has even seen a succubus. I have no clue what she looks like.” He sighed.

 

“Si majesty.” The black said bowing.

 

“What do you want done with Fabius majesty?” Gabrielus asked.

 

“Banish him. He is still my brother but I do not want him here.” He said walking towards the door.

 

“He should be put to death Amedeo.” His general said shocked.

 

“He would expect that Gabrielus. No, I am not him and I am better.” Amedeo stated leaving his throne room.

 

Gabrielus knew that was trouble but he sighed as the pain of Valerian's death washed over him. He had taken up his old ways and he was seen in the company of femmina these days. He did not wish to be reminded of his lover so he switched his amor. He again sighed and he had unshed tears in his eyes.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Amedeo sat at a long table and he sat with several other types of reptiles from Europe. The king of the Celtic Wyvern was surprisingly solid black in color.

 

“I am glad you arrived sir. I am Drostan Mochrie.” The young wyvern said bowing.

 

“I am Amedeo Gnaeus Servius. You asked for an alliance and I am interested in such.” Amedeo stated from his seat.

 

“It seemed the Danube Reds are hell bent on waging war all over Europe and no offense young rex but I will not be subservient to any basilisk, ever!” Drostan said taking a seat.

 

The wyvern ruler leaned forward and picked up a gold chalice and held it up. A beautiful creature unlike anything Amedeo had ever seen came forward and poured wine for the wyvern. Her hair curled around her face and her eyes were a golden; almost a burnt orange in color. She had a mark between her brows that looked in the shape of a diamond and she stood only to his shoulder he could see. What shocked him was the fact that instead of a fairly flat chest of a femmina reptile; she had well formed and a shapely figure. He averted his eyes and he forced his ardor down. She was stunning and his mouth was dry.

 

“This is my wife Moina Mochrie. Say hello my dear.” Drostan commanded.

 

“Hello.” She said softly and she bowed.

 

She stood straight and her eyes locked with Amedeo. He looked away quickly and he was feeling out of place and like a horrid cad. Drostan was treating his wife like a servant and in his opinion the beauty should be waited on by slaves. He made it through a meal of rare mutton and he freely drank wine. They spoke of many things and battles to come. Amedeo knew he was drunk but he excused himself to get some air and he actually thought about stroking away the erection that would not leave him. He stepped outside into the rather frigid British night and he saw the landscape. It was rather pretty here but Latium was more so in his opinion.

 

“Hello.” He heard from behind him.

 

“Oh! Hello Lady Mochrie! I am Amedeo.” He said with a half bow.

 

“I know. I saw you at the banquet. Do you like Britainia?” She asked softly.

 

“It is colder then I am used to but si. I like it okay.” He shrugged.

 

“I am glad to hear it. May I say something?” She asked in her quiet voice.

 

“Please.” He said looking at her curiously.

 

“If I asked you to take me away from here? If I asked you to give me shelter, would you?” Moina asked.

 

“What? Why?” Amedeo asked surprised.

 

“I hate him! I have heard that you are good. I have heard you are kind. I do not want to be here and I am as if a slave. Please sir! Please!” She begged falling to her knees.

 

“Please femmina do not beg me. It could be no good if I did as such. Do you understand?” He said gently pulling her up.

 

Moina was shaking and she was desperate. She was also in awe of this beautiful creature. She did not want to be beat anymore and she did not want to endure Drostan's “love”. She could see his sympathy in his deep red eyes and she lost it. She pulled him to her lips and he gasped against her mouth. He could not think clearly and he was just too damn drunk. She was also so damn soft and she had begged him to take her away. He wrenched his lips away and stared down at her pleading eyes.

 

“Not right.” He stated thickly.

 

“He is evil. He will kill me either way. I want a chance at life basilisk. I want a chance for something beyond this misery.” She said clutching at him.

 

He gathered her to him and began to kiss her passionately. She had the slightly forked tongue of a reptile but some features of a mammal. He was in shock but she responded with such incredible need. She managed to phase them somewhere and he fell upon her. He pulled her dress down and her full breasts made him hungry. He wrapped his lips around one and she gasped loudly as he sucked her as he had the succubus. Moina mewled for him and her noises made him more crazed. He lifted his mouth and he attacked her lips. Her responses left him beyond maddened. She was helping him out of his tunic and leggings as he finished undoing her dress. Amedeo watched her eye his maleness and he cupped her chin.

 

“Are you sure femmina?” He asked slurring a little.

 

“Gods please. Please.” She whimpered.

 

Never one to deny a female he slipped within her and he began to tremble. It felt too good and it felt too right as he cried out immediately. The succubus had felt the same. He was in confusion and his brain muddled as he held the tiny female to him as he took her body in such pleasure. Need was overwhelming him and he realized she was crying. He stared at her face when he realized she had never had amor as such.

 

“Femmina? Why do you cry?” He asked kissing her throat.

 

“Does not hurt. Feels so good. Amedeo please harder.” She said clawing at his back.

 

He was struck dumb and anger fueled his heart. He could not believe that Drostan would treat his own wife as such.

 

“I will give you shelter. You have to change your name.” He whispered as he kissed her throat.

 

“Anything. What? What am I…Gods!” She screamed out as she cleaved to him tightly.

 

Amedeo felt her tight and small body convulse around his member and he lost it. His warm seed left him and he shook under a powerful release of his own. He let out such a loud cry as he felt himself milked of his release.

 

“You found climax.” He said breathlessly.

 

“Oh.” Moina said as breathlessly.

 

“I do not understand.” Amedeo said peppering her face with kisses.

 

“Not my pleasure. Never about my pleasure. Can we leave this night? What should I change my name to?” She asked eagerly.

 

“I will give you a Latin name. Valentina.” He smiled at her.

 

“Okay. I will be Valentina.” She said smiling at him.

 

Amedeo did not think he had seen anything so beautiful as her smile. He held her awhile longer and he mentally made plans with what to do with the run-away queen.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

“You what?” Adrastus asked in shock.

 

“I brought the wyvern queen home with me.” Amedeo stated as he sipped his morning wine.

 

“Majesty. You do realize that she was married?” He asked surprised.

 

“Si. I also know she had bruises on her and she had no clue what an orgasm was and oh, he treated her like a whore!” His rex said outraged.

 

“Amedeo! You went there to find allies not more enemies!” He cried.

 

“I also could not ignore her pleas my friend. She was in need and I am strong enough to defend her.” He said in a pissy tone.

 

“Well what are you going to do with her my rex?” He asked shocked beyond anything.

 

“I am going to marry her today.” He said flatly.

 

“What?” He said again floored.

 

“Si. She has taken the name Valentina. We can get along well enough.” He said watching him.

 

“You are just going to marry her? You have never said you were going to marry anyone!” Adrastus said almost picking his jaw off the floor.

 

“Perhaps now is the right time. I can get along with her just fine.” Amedeo said.

 

“By the Gods.” His best friend and advisor stated.

 

His rex finished his meal and stood up. He had preparations to make and a femmina to marry. He figured by giving her his name then it would shelter her enough. He was unprepared to find said femmina in his bed and she had a smirk on her face. He had a quizzical look on his face and she beckoned him over.

 

“I owe you my life sir. How can I ever thank you?” She asked.

 

“Perhaps love me someday.” Amedeo chuckled.

 

“Do not ask that because I will. I will love you.” Valentina whispered.

 

He smiled but he was again unprepared for the way she kissed him nor was he prepared for the way he ended up taking her. It did not take him long to figure out that he adored her. It also did not take him long to figure out that she was true to her word. Within a very short time Amedeo Gnaeus Servius was madly in love with the femmina he had stolen away from the cold shores of Britainia.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Valentina watched her husband sleep and she was smirking at his luscious form. It was rather hot in Latium and she had a flask of honey in her hand. She moved with purpose and their little ones were sleeping at the moment. She poured a little of the sticky liquid onto his groin and his head shot up. Amedeo stared at hi beautiful wife and he groaned as she began to use her tongue on him.

 

“Femmina why do you tease me so?” He asked heavily as his wife pleasured him.

 

“Because my rex needs it.” She said seductively as she kissed his thigh.

 

“Valentina please femmina.” He groaned as he lay back against the chaise.

 

His face contorted as she nipped his thighs more then ran her serpent tongue along his male flesh. He was rasping as she managed to make him beg. His eyes were closed and he reveled in her. He had made an enemy of Drostan Mochrie who swore personal revenge on him but so far he had managed to keep him away. Valentina was very pregnant yet again but she stayed that way. They were very much in love and the whole of the court had forgiven their rex when they saw how much the young couple adored the other.

 

Amedeo's head shot up and he gasped harder as she swiped the head of his cock. He rolled his head and he was gasping harder.

 

“I want to be in you now!” He growled.

 

“Yum.” She purred against his male flesh.

 

“Femmina! Gods I love you. I love you!” Amedeo whimpered as she swallowed him whole.

 

He had no hope and he gripped the chaise as he arched against her mouth. She hummed around his staff and he closed his eyes as rapture settled in his veins. She lifted her head and she stared at her husband of more then ten years and he stared back at her with such profound love. Somewhere in the first week they had fallen so hard.

 

“I need to have this baby now. Perhaps you can rise again and make me scream and beg for more. Make me scream to have you with me always?” She whispered in his ear.

 

“Si!” He said with a predatory smirk.

 

“This makes eleven Amedeo. Do you think we will ever stop?” She laughed as he arranged her on her side.

 

“No. I can never have enough of you and I shall always be with you. So my perfect and beautiful femmina you will have to get used to having my babies.” He said grinning.

 

“I feel so bad for Gabrielus.” She murmured softly.

 

“I know. It does not seem fair. He loved Josephina.” He sighed as he held her tightly.

 

“Please take me harder.” Valentina begged.

 

“Si.” He said holding her hip and working himself against her with all his passion.

 

Amedeo did not think he could be so happy. He loved his children and he loved his wife. He had never been a faithful man but he was with her. His life was perfection and he fought like hell to keep it so.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Drostan stared at the red basilisks and it was ironic he thought. Latium was in a festival this very day and he intended to wipe out his enemy. Fury at his Moina's betrayals still stung more then two decades later. The black basilisk and himself had fought many times and the bastard had always won. He was a powerful fuck but he would not win. Patience had been his virtue and he would destroy the whoring bitch and the thieving snake. He nodded to his dragons and he watched the city that housed the palace of Amedeo Servius begin to be attacked. He would wait and he would find her. He had intelligence that the whore had changed her name to Valentina. A nasty smirk played on his lips and he watched the fires begin to burn. Drostan walked forward very casually and he had ordered Brennus to find the children of his whore wife and put them to death. He saw the reds killing and maiming everywhere and he chuckled. He had told his people to do what came naturally to them. He told him to eat the basilisk as a lesson to those that may have survived. He also ordered the fields to be sown with salt and every animal slaughtered. He walked along to the palace and he heard her voice. Drostan's face filled with such hatred as he walked in. She wore a white stolla and she wore flowers in her hair. She struggled against the dragons that held her and her old husband walked forward.

 

“Hello whore.” He smirked.

 

“You sick fuck!” She screamed.

 

“You will think sick fuck.” He said spitting on her.

 

Valentina struggled and she knew Amedeo was out fighting. She heard the screams of her babes and she yelled trying to say anything. Drostan smacked her across her face and she fell to the ground.

 

“It is time you learned that I am the last face you will ever see.” He said falling on her.

 

Valentina screamed as Drostan wasted no time in ripping the stolla from her. He used his venom laced claws to tear into her belly and she screamed louder.

 

“That's right whore. Scream and beg for mercy but none shall come.” He hissed.

 

“Just kill me! Please stop!” Valentina yelled.

 

“Have no fear Moina. You wish shall be granted.” Drostan stated.

 

He pried her thighs wide and a dragon held each leg. She screamed louder as he stared at her in hatred.

 

“Since you are a whore then you shall be a whore but first I shall have my bitch wife.” He said in fury.

 

“No stop!” She snarled.

 

Drostan freed his member and he shoved himself into her hard. She screamed as he pounded without mercy. He used his claws to tear at her breasts and he continued to rape his own wife. Drostan used such force that he tore her center with his staff. He finally pulled out and let his seed spill all over her ripped open belly. She had quit screaming and the pain was so horrendous. She was silently crying for Amedeo as she cried out weakly as the other dragon began to defile her. The brown dragon had entered her anally and he ripped her open. Drostan watched with malice and glee as he watched his slut ex-wife slowly bleed out from her wounds. His cold heart warmed at the sight of his own men using her as the whore she was.

 

“Burn her and hang her body for that bastard to find. I want him to come after me. Burn the daughters as well and since we are in Latium; crucify his sons. I want him to see what stealing from me has caused. Put everyone to sword you can find and destroy everything. So glad to see you die bitch!” He laughed with genuine mirth.

 

Valentina's hand barely moved and she whispered Amedeo's name. She was blissfully dead by the time they burned her body.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

He was trying to get to his home but there were so many dead. There was so much blood and Amedeo was staggering as he choked as he saw his people dead or dying. He saw his palace in flames and he saw wyvern everywhere. He finally could phase and he appeared in his palace. Amedeo saw her first and he covered his mouth. He screamed and fell to his knees. He crawled a little ways away and he began to vomit. Her body was still smoking and he could not stop retching. Amedeo looked up to see the feet of Gabrielus and he was weeping.

 

“My rex. We have to go. We are being overrun, si?” He said in a commanding tone.

 

“Cannot! Gabrielus loved her. Cannot leave her.” He said weeping openly.

 

“I know. We loved our regina too but we have to live to stop them Amedeo. We have to!” He said pulling up his friend.

 

“My children!” He said trying to free himself from his grasp.

 

“There is nothing left Amedeo! We have to go now!” The white said yelling.

 

Adrastus ran in and he yelled. He turned his head and he made his way over to his cousin.

 

“Come! We have a legion in the Alps. We must go Amedeo. We must go now!” They both said.

 

“Forgive me. Valentina forgive me.” He said as he wept.

 

His two best friends said as they led him away. The acrid smoke from the fires choked him as his home and city burned to the ground.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Asuna's eyes blinked back tears as she had taken in his blood fully. She wondered at his memories of the succubus and wondered if at some point she went to him. She turned away and she sat down in his villa. Justinus was playing on the floor at the moment and he was watching the sky.

 

“You should have killed Fabius.” She replied wiping her eyes.

 

“Si. I should have but I was trying to be a good ruler. Failed miserably did I not?” he asked wiping his own eyes.

 

“Amedeo.” She said looking up at him.

 

“Did you come to me in the past?” He asked as he neared her.

 

“Not yet. I may and I just have not done it yet. I do not know.” Asuna replied honestly.

 

“I want to think it was you.” Amedeo murmured as he pressed his forehead to hers.

 

“I am so sorry. He is an evil bastard and to think he covets Akemi. Did he really hurt her as such?” She asked in surprise.

 

“Si. I believed her femmina or I would never have brought her back with me. It floored me that a man would treat his wife as such. I know I can be chauvinist but I would never hurt the femmina I love that way.” He stated needing to feel her close to him.

 

“I love you Amedeo. I love you so much.” She said standing and holding him closely.

 

“I know femmina. I fought him for years and I was never able to beat him. Our numbers were so small.” He said as he held her tightly.

 

“You did the right thing regardless if you took his wife or not. She was innocent and you saved her for awhile. You are honorable.” She said kissing his cheek.

 

“I love her femmina. I always will but by the Gods; I love you too. Please do not doubt that I love you and I love my beautiful son so much.” He said holding her chin lightly.

 

Amedeo was rather emotional and he crashed his mouth against hers. They explored the other slowly and Justinus giggled at that moment. The basilisk pulled away and chuckled.

 

“My beautiful boy.” He said picking him up.

 

“Si?” He asked smiling.

 

“Is your materna not the most beautiful femmina in the world?” Amedeo asked his boy.

 

“Si Papa!” He said kissing his mother.

 

Asuna smiled at the little boy that had shocked them both so much. He happily babbled about different things and then ran off to find his nanny. Amedeo stared at his wife now and the memories of his long dead wife were getting to him.

 

“I am sorry. I only wished to know how to help you more and in doing so help my family. I am sorry to make you relive it. Wen needs to find Gabrielus as well.” She said holding his face between her hands.

 

“It was good I slept so long. You are beautiful but tell my why you are here exactly? You have been really tight lipped femmina.” He asked.

 

“Maec got to me some point here in the past. He is from the past as well. I believe he got me pregnant and he says he did. Our son is missing or dead. We are not sure which and now I wish to either find him or find his body.” She said getting choked up.

 

“Bastardo! He could not have you then so he corrupted you as a young femmina?” Amedeo asked in anger.

 

“Hai.” She nodded.

 

“He needs to die.” He growled.

 

“Hai but it is my problem. I will handle Maec. Now we need a plan Amedeo. We have got to find Gabrielus. Wen is going nuts and you need him to help you revive more basilisks.” She stated.

 

“Do you think more really survived femmina? I mean you found my brother but that was back in Roman days.” He said shaking his head.

 

“Amedeo, I am suggesting we go to Roman days to find more. I am not waiting around for Drostan and I think Akemi went in search of Ryukotsusei and Ryuu when she could not find them. She is walking around carrying his baby and her mate's.” Asuna stated.

 

“He must have made her immune to wyvern venom somehow.” He said shaking his head.

 

“I believe you are right. Ryukotsusei will try to raise it like a dragon so maybe there is hope.” She sighed loudly.

 

“Femmina come with me.” He said pulling her towards his room.

 

She did not stop him as he began to kiss her and nibble along her jaw. It made her weak in the knees as he proceeded to slowly undress her. He was needy at the moment and he proceeded to make passionate love to her. Her mind went to what needed to be done and she intended to go to Nagasaki later.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Sesshomaru stared at an extremely lovely onna and she allowed him to scent her a little. She also begged him not to ask too many questions and asked him to remember his sister in law; the miko. Hibari asked her jii-chan to have faith and she needed him to let his celebrated general help the pup of his own pup. Her face was so like his beloved Asuna's that he just could not say no. So it was with that, Lord Sesshomaru of the Western Lands of Honshu called on his longtime general and someone he considered somewhat a friend.

 

“This Sesshomaru commands you to help the strange onna.” He stated in his bored baritone.

 

“As my lord commands.” Hideaki said bowing.

 

“Let no harm come to this Sesshomaru's grand pup.” The Western lord commanded flatly.

 

“As you command.” The violet eyed inu said suppressing his excitement.

 

With that Hideaki found himself in his private chambers in the palace and he was packing for an extended leave. He was hoping to see the princess as an adult. Hell, he was dying to see her as an adult bitch. He could only imagine what she looked like. They knew she would be powerful but by the strength of her pup, it seemed they had had no clue. This Hibari was lovely but he had always been entranced by the young onna. He saw her constantly at his lord's side and she was growing into perfection. He shoved down his lust and he looked at his wall and the statue of the inugami.

 

“Please let me see her. I just want to see what she looks like. She is obviously mated but I want to see what the Western heir becomes.” He prayed quickly.

 

He grabbed his fang and shoved it into his obi and he went to find the grand pup of the Western lord.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Asuna was in deep battle and she refused to give up. She was whirling and weaving quickly amongst several wyvern and she would not let them near her enough to bite her. She had received word through the grape vine that someone had hurt one of her Byakko daughters. She had Kaita send her back even further and she was now killing serpents. She ported on a small hill and she let loose a powerful nami that proceeded to rip through the few wyvern and red basilisk. It seemed Hibari's actions had led to a small scouting group.

 

“Inu?” She heard from up the shore.

 

Her eyes widened and she whirled around. Her mouth dropped and it was Quon. She let Konkisaiga recede and she ran into his arms. He hugged her fiercely and she kissed him suddenly and with incredible passion. Quon let himself look at her and he stared at her with an emotional face.

 

“Wen or Wenling?” She asked softly.

 

“Wenling.” He choked.

 

“Quon listen to me. She will be okay.” Asuna stated holding his face.

 

“She is healing. She will be happy to see you.” He said kissing her hands and then her face.

 

She dipped into his mind and she ported to the dragon castle. Ryuu looked up to his cousin and he felt relief. Wenling was awake and she saw her mother. Asuna immediately went to her and hugged her. Wenling was not upset anymore and in fact fury had taken hold of her. Rena had told her that she was pregnant but it was dragon. Ryuu was quite quiet about everything and Asuna looked concerned. She stood up and she went to the eldest son of Ryukotsusei.

 

“Hello Ryuu. How are you?” She asked.

 

“I have been better.” He said softly.

 

“Ryuu, she is a very strong young onna. She will not let an act of violence shatter her.” Asuna stated with confidence.

 

“Hibari took off and she came back covered in blood. She was in a rage and then my soldiers told me that there was wyverns and red basilisk.” He explained.

 

“They are gone. I killed them only a little while ago.” She explained.

 

“Thank the Kamis. I can rest a little easier. My mother and father are not here Lady Asuna. Father and Uncle Ryuu left to avenge my mother and then mother left as well. I have no clue what the hell is going on.” He said in worry.

 

“We will figure it out, okay?” She said softly.

 

Asuna stood up and she went outside. She was mentally calculating what year it was and she was deep in thought. Kensei was still reeling over her beast's marking of him and she gave him space. Maec had been injured very badly. She had grabbed herself a Jing and had Astana spied on. She had confirmed that Maec was in a death sleep and he was in hiding. She had a little time to deal with this and she needed to deal with it. She felt his despair and his confliction over his feelings and she slipped from the castle. She walked to the beach and she saw a skeleton of a basilisk and she sighed. She hung her head and she felt heaviness enter her heart at the missing pup and she just could not get the anguish out of her. She felt two distinct auras and she turned to yell at Hibari in her recklessness and she stared at a face she had not seen in over four centuries. Guilt had wracked her and she covered her mouth in shock.

 

“Haha before you yell at me; I am sorry. You would have gone ballistic too.” Hibari said before she could say anything.

 

“Hideaki?” Asuna whispered in shock.

 

“Princess?” The inu general said just as shocked.

 

“You two do know each other?” Hibari asked.

 

“Hai.” He said still in shock.

 

The full grown princess made him almost speechless. She wore an off white hanfu; the inner dress was strapless and the obi was dark grey. The outer robe was fairly sheer and the sleeves wide and the whole of the robe was edged in the same as the obi. Her silver hair was down and she blinked at him and Asuna had forgotten how utterly mesmerizing his eyes were.

 

“Hibari please go check on Wenling. I shall be there shortly.” Asuna said never taking her eyes off her former general.

 

“Hai Haha.” Hibari stated and bowed.

 

Her daughter phased out and the general could not take his eyes off of her.

 

“My lady how old are you?” He asked in a hushed tone.

 

“More than five centuries. I take it you were privy to my aunt's origins.” She replied.

 

“Hai my lady. I have served my lord for many years.” He said boldly meeting her eyes.

 

“Hideaki, I am so pleased to see you again.” She said bowing and she went to move away.

 

He moved fast and grabbed her arm. She stiffened and she shut her eyes. She was saying a prayer and she savagely repressed the memory of giving him honors.

 

“Say nothing. It is not my place to know but let me ask one thing?” He inquired.

 

“Hai?” She whispered in a tortured tone.

 

“Was it honorable? Was it in service of the West?” He demanded.

 

“It was in service of your land and your princess. It is my fault. You will think honorable but I think I am a wretch.” Asuna said breathing too fast.

 

“I am a soldier. It is my duty. You are so young still in this era. Too young to be known properly. You are beautiful my lady.” Hideaki said breathing in her scent.

 

Her eyes opened wide in surprise when she realized what it was he was not saying.

 

“Hideaki?” She asked turning her head.

 

“Hai. Shall I be coy?” He asked.

 

“What are you saying?” Asuna asked stunned.

 

He was taller then her; as tall as her father. His hands slipped into her hair and he nudged her nose with his and he did not kiss her. He only breathed against her mouth. She could not think and he scented raw and he scented purely inu.

 

“I thought you the sweetest pup in the world. I thought it adorable when my lord put a wooden katana in your hand. I used to hate it when Sir Yuuta would whip you. I wanted to kill him. As you have grown, I have thought you more and more beautiful. As you have ventured out, your father has asked that I shadow you. I have been your back up.” He admitted.

 

Asuna could not believe her ears and her face was burning red. She had no clue that Hideaki had ever paid her any mind. She had always thought the former general aloof. She had also not thought much on him simply because he was close in age to her sire and then he had been killed by what she thought was Bai Jing.

 

“Kamis if Sesshomaru saw you now. He would shit himself. His baby girl all grown up. He adores you so much. Occasionally we share sake in his study and he speaks of Augusta and you.” He stated as he whispered softly.

 

“You and my Chichi are good friends?” Asuna asked surprised.

 

“Hai but I do not say anything. I have no wish to let anyone think that my lord is kind.” Hideaki smiled a little as he used his thumbs to massage her cheeks.

 

She could not stand it and she crushed her lips to his. He welcomed it and he wrapped his arms around her. Asuna had no wish to upset Quon and she ported them to the West. She had no clue of his yoki and she stumbled backwards. Hideaki fell upon her and it was a heady kiss. The general had no intentions of stopping himself and Asuna gently pushed him back. His violet eyes were stormy and he looked impatient. He also looked wild and needy.

 

“Hideaki, I thought I knew of you. I thought I knew this man.” She said in a tortured way.

 

“I would have and never will cross a line that is not honorable my lady. If you say no then I will abide but know I am enamored.” He whispered feverishly.

 

Asuna was speechless and she just stared. He gently pulled down the inner dress of her hanfu and he saw one breast exposed. His eyes turned their strange color and he was trying to keep himself under control. Hideaki decided to get himself under wraps and he arranged himself. He let his thumb graze her nipple and she took in a deep breath. He lowered his mouth and barely kissed at it and she gasped softly. He jerked himself back and sat on his knees. Asuna was still on her back and she looked disarranged. He was not one in the West who thought the princess's place as heir had been a mistake. He had seen her soon after birth and he had felt her yoki. He knew she would be a worthy heir; she had been a pretty little pup but he had become obsessed with her secretly as she had grown. He could not get the pretty thing out of his head. Hideaki had been surprised and pleased when Sesshomaru had told him recently that she was going to start working and eventually be the ultimate head of the army.

 

“You have not sparred me have you?” He asked.

 

“No. I never had that pleasure.” Asuna said still staring at him.

 

“I want you.” Hideaki stated flatly.

 

She could say nothing and he neared her again. He caught her mouth and he kissed her ruthlessly. She was swept up in his passion and ardor as Hideaki licked as her lips. He was murmuring passionately and she could hear his words.

 

“Hideaki?” She asked stunned.

 

“I swore I would control myself and here I am acting a fool.” He said clenching his teeth.

 

“I am stunned that you did not hate me, Yuuta did.” She tried to smile.

 

“Please do not mention that self inflated, arrogant son of a whore!” He snapped.

 

“You and my father are very good friends I see.” Asuna said pursing her lips.

 

“Hai we are. Perhaps I see you from his eyes but I saw you in your home. I saw you loved and loving. Yuuta accused you of being a brat and I saw you as a wonderful little pup.” Hideaki snorted.

 

Asuna blinked at him and she was still in shock at him knowing so much about her. His mouth was sin and as she had always thought him beautiful, she had always thought him above her.

 

“General, I swear I never heard you speak this much.” She said suddenly tracing his jaw.

 

“Please do not touch me if I cannot touch you in return. I will not be able to think. I want you so badly.” He admitted.

 

Asuna leaned forward and kissed a little to the side of his mouth and it was overly sensual. He growled softly and she began to leave soft kisses on his face.

 

“So you wished to know your princess? When did you wish to know me Hideaki?” Asuna asked.

 

“For me about ten years ago.” He admitted.

 

“About how old am I for you?” She asked slowly undoing his shihakusho.

 

“Seventy now.” He whispered.

 

“Fairly young. Old enough barely to experience flesh.” Asuna whispered running hands over his chest.

 

“No! You are still young for such a thing. Oh Kamis.” He said biting the tip of his tongue.

 

“General Hideaki, I never realized that you were so impassioned. You are also very tactile.” She said leaning forward and running her tongue along his jaw.

 

“Only with certain ones. Torture.” He yelped softly.

 

“I know Sir Jouichi and his family. You trained Juuna did you not and Baku?” She asked fully opening the shihakusho.

 

“They are my god children. Jouichi asked me to care for his children if he were to pass away. Juuna is a good girl.” He admitted.

 

“She is a more beautiful bitch then me.” Asuna said letting a claw graze his male nub.

 

“She is comely but I want this one.” He whispered harshly.

 

“Why Hideaki?” She asked meeting his eyes again.

 

He snarled as her claws raked his belly and he was a virile male. He honestly reminded her a little of her sire in his intenseness and it might have been the generation he was from. Hideaki shred her hanfu and jerked the expensive silk from her. His princess was not startled but then he had not expected her to be. He knew in his mind she would be a passionate bitch and a perfect one. She would not be a demure whore nor would she shy from pleasure. He flattened her and he kissed her with probing tongue and ground his pelvis into hers. She mewled into his mouth as he sought to make her crazed. Hideaki felt out of control again and he felt her hands on his hakama. He did not care and he only wanted her. He took his own member in hand and slowly stroked to ease his own tremendous ache. Asuna's eyes had bled red and she met his own strangely colored eyes. She lightly ran a finger over his head and underneath and she marveled at him. Hideaki reached up and behind her neck and held her firm as he slowly teased her opening. Asuna bit her lips a little and seriously doubted her sanity but she growled softly. Hideaki watched her face as he slowly eased his girth. His princess took deeper breaths and began to moan so sweetly for him. She took to breathing rapidly and she was watching his face and he was rapt.

 

“You are so exquisite right now.” He stated with a heated, throaty way.

 

Asuna stared up at his face and she was trembling under him. He was not moving just yet because he wished to savor the feeling.

 

“You wait?” Asuna protested.

 

“Hai. I am truly not like this. I am usually much more staid and much calmer.” He said quaking along his limbs.

 

“That is the Hideaki I remember from my youth.” She trembled with him.

 

“Hai but I do not wish you to remember me that way. I wish for you to remember this. Kamis princess. Forgive me but I cannot control my beast completely.” He growled low.

 

He pulled back and thrust hard. She arched and moaned hard for him and he could not stop. This lovely bitch was giving her approval and he would not deny them either pleasure. He moved with purpose and with need. Asuna plucked the lacing from his hair and his thick silver hair fell around his face and around them as he took the one female he had desired for over a decade. His lips sought hers and a hand softly cupped a plush mound. She was lost in this very inu male and she wondered why she had never noticed. He was seated too well and he was an obviously experienced male. She seized up and he grabbed her hand and laced his fingers in hers before she could drag them down his back. Asuna was moaning and mindless as he suddenly pulled back and his head was hanging low and he was breathing harshly as he snarled out. She watched him become spent and she was utterly entranced. It hit her that this male was in her sire's court where one may make a lover of the princess but they did not pup her without permission. She found it ironic. She lay back and it hit her she had coupled with someone she had known all her life but then in most cases with the inu in her life; that was the case. Hideaki fell on her again and ravished her mouth. He was too good at the kissing part and he made her weak. He finally managed to pull himself away from her lips and he lay on his back. His princess and his obsession had been spectacular and he contemplated changing form and sleeping off the lethargy. He was immediately alert as she had grabbed his shihakusho. He was startled to see a fang appear out of a burst of yoki and she was staring at a dark haired male something.

 

“You nasty bitch.” He said in hatred.

 

“You should speak wraith!” Asuna said growling.

 

“My father has left instructions concerning you but it does not mean I will not harm you!” Raganos hissed.

 

“I am surprised you can think for yourself tr'Awnhi. At least Maec has enough brains to do his own evil deeds.” She scoffed.

 

Hideaki watched as the being phased out and he watched his princess clash fang with morphed flesh. She moved with such fluid grace and she let go such powerful bursts of yoki. Asuna was in no mood to deal with Raganos and his idiotic self. She suddenly appeared in front of him and she shoved her fang deeply into his gut. She had incredible malice on her face and she snarled.

 

“You killed one of my baby girls and if this does not kill you know that I will. My sire wants your head on his desk and I want your body so that I may spit upon it and burn it! I will kill Maec and I will deliver his soul from his own hell!” She said in a low and lethal tone.

 

Raganos's eyes were bleeding white and she suddenly let loose her Dakkasou and then a nami. He phased away last second but it would be awhile before she saw him again. She snarled in fury and she turned to see Hideaki just standing there.

 

“Hai?” She asked.

 

“There is much I do not know. We do not know these beasts do we?” He asked in a quiet tone.

 

“No. I know these beasts.” She said walking past him.

 

“Why?” He demanded.

 

“Because my mother is not a normal uppyr and I am not full inu Hideaki.” Asuna remarked.

 

“Your daughter Hibari is one of those beings now.” He said in understanding.

 

“Hai. I forgot how damn observant you are. Hai she is and I have twins who were Shouten but another manner of wraith turned them. They are named Iyo and Kenji.” She replied.

 

“Who is this Maec?” Hideaki demanded.

 

“He is the Shouten king. There are five clans of Shouten wraiths in Central Asia. There are the Sahen, Besud, Jing, tr'Awnhi, and Koval. Come to think of it, I have never met a Koval.” She said thinking.

 

“So this Maec person is evil?” He asked.

 

“He is not subtle.” Asuna said evenly.

 

“Princess do not sugar coat.” He stated crossing his arms.

 

“He is a bastard and the most selfish creature the Kamis ever made. He is capable of great evils.” She sighed.

 

Hideaki saw many things are on her face and confusion was one. He said nothing but he was curious. Asuna did not want to talk about the wraiths at the moment simply because of his own end. Memories of falling onto the ground and shutting his eyes made her suddenly sick to her stomach and she rushed past him. She began to get sick and he went to her.

 

“Hideaki no! You should hate me. You should not look at me so. I am not a good and proper bitch. I am more like my mother.” She said dry heaving.

 

“What constitutes a good and proper bitch Princess? I am not mated, shall you ask why?” He demanded.

 

“Why?” She asked very much in surprise.

 

“Because those simpering, whiney whores at court get on my nerves. My family is not the wealthiest but I promise I have no issue with the noble whores. They throw themselves at me. I found one in my chambers only last week.” Hideaki snorted.

 

“You did not rut her?” Asuna asked highly amused.

 

“Oh I rutted her, told her she was a whore, and then told her to get the hell out.” He said laughing.

 

Asuna burst out laughing and a look passed over her face.

 

“Did the chore take you long?” She asked in a conspiring tone.

 

“No. I made sure it did not. Now will you please trust me?” He asked.

 

“I have always trusted you Hideaki. It is you who should not trust me. I fail you.” She said as she looked around.

 

“I am certain clothing can be rustled up at the dragon castle, by the way, the dragons?” Hideaki asked surprised.

 

“Long story short; I am the reincarnation of my Aunt Sorami. I was pissed off at Touga and confronted him. I met Tekeshi and things happened. Well my sweet Hana has miko in her as I am sure you know. Baku and Juuna are your god pups. Well Akemi was brought by our family tengu; who I am supremely furious with right now, to the past era and she met Ryukotsusei. You have seen Akemi and she is still as lovely. He fell for her and they ended up having an affair. She got pregnant with the very dragon you saw in the castle. A few years later she had Ryunosuke who was a houshi but then met my Hibari. That is another long story.” She said in a long winded answer.

 

“A dragon houshi and Lady Akemi with the Ryukotsusei and by the Kamis what the hell have you been doing?” Hideaki asked shocked.

 

“Oh do you remember the legends of the kumo onna named Ayana the Great?” Asuna asked amused.

“Hai.” He nodded.

 

“I was her too.” She said for shock factor.

 

“Good Kamis!” He said stepping back.

 

“So it is a long, convoluted story that I cannot completely share. Just know that I am not a good inu at all. In fact I am a terrible one and you here is throwing me off.” She sighed.

 

“You think a few things will put me off?” He asked frowning.

 

“A few things? Oh Kamis.” She began to laugh hard.

 

Hideaki narrowed his eyes and he stepped near her. He made her look at him and it was startling to see those amazing eyes full of something.

 

“If you are trying to make angry by impertinence then it shall not work. You employed that trick often as a pup. I know you better then you know. Your well being has been my responsibility a long while and your sire entrusted me! Only me my lady and by the Kamis do not think I will fail Sesshomaru now.” He snapped.

 

Her heart was thudding a little too hard and she began to wonder more on her childhood then she had previously thought. It seemed Hideaki had been fond of her as a young pup and then as she had come into her adulthood that fondness had turned into something more.

 

“If you have guilt on this demise then do not. Just let me ask; do I receive my honors?” Hideaki asked softly.

 

“Hai. I would not fail you in that way.” She said emotionally.

 

“Then why have guilt? I am a warrior the same as you obviously are now. I know there are dangers and I accept those.” He stated flatly.

 

“Stop! Please say nothing more!” Asuna snarled.

 

“It is the truth.” He stated simply.

 

“No! It is not that simple. It is never that simple. There is more then honor and the fight Hideaki.” She said getting shrill.

 

“Not for me Asuna. I am a soldier. My father is a simple artisan. Does that surprise you? He carves beautiful statues and his son kills things for a living. He was most disappointed in me.” He laughed.

 

Her eyes clouded and she pulled him closer. She ported them within the palace and she intended to raid her own clothing. Hideaki was not surprised she could port considering that the Lady Augusta could. She slipped into her old rooms and came back dressed in a simple black kimono. She thrust his shihakusho and a hakama into his hands. He managed to pull them on and she ported them back out into the woods on the edge of Western lands. She sat down and stared out into the greenery and he sat by her. Hideaki lifted his nose and he could smell something.

 

“It is only Byakko.” She said softly.

 

“Only Byakko?” He asked shocked.

 

“Hai. Quon! I am over here.” Asuna called.

 

The tiger prince came out and he crossed his arms. He stared at the unusual inu and he really did not like how close he sat to his longtime wife and mate.

 

“Asuna? I need to speak to you my love.” Quon stated.

 

Hideaki narrowed his eyes and it was obvious that this big feline knew his princess very well. Asuna stood up and she neared Quon. He began to speak to her in Han and Hideaki did not let on that he knew the language. The tiger was pissed off and he wanted to know who this inu was. Asuna was calm and tried to explain. It was obvious they were involved and the Byakko male stared at him in anger.

 

“You understand everything I am saying do you not?” Quon demanded.

 

“I am fluent in many languages neko.” Hideaki snorted.

 

Asuna had to hold Quon back and he growled low.

 

“I will show you neko, dog!” he snarled.

 

“Truly? Do you think I fear an ice neko? Not really. I know your kind infests the North.” Hideaki retorted.

 

Asuna's mouth dropped and Quon hissed in anger.

 

“Quon Hu stop! What brings this about?” Asuna demanded.

 

“I do not like him. You are my wife and my mate! If you will please remember that you bore me three cubs. There inu, your princess has born Byakko cubs asshole.” He growled.

 

“Quon!” She growled.

 

“Bring it kitty kitty.” The inu general stated smirking.

 

She held her mate back and she mouthed “shut up” to Hideaki. She dragged Quon back and she faced him and stared at him.

 

“He is arrogant and I will wipe that smirk off of his face!” He growled.

 

“Quon, my love. He is a good friend of my father's. He is also of this era and you have not acted like this in a very long while.” She said calming him.

 

“Bastard.” He hissed.

 

“Quon Hu!” Asuna yelled.

 

He gave her look and he suddenly pulled her in his powerful arms. He lifted her a little and she had to wrap her legs around his waist. She knew what was coming but it still blew her mind. He buried his hands in her hair and she had to hold on to his face as he kissed her with the mission of altering her mentally. All felines she knew had the ability to make another loose rational thought with their tongue alone and Quon was so very, very good with tongue. She groaned so loudly into his mouth and her toes curled. Hideaki had stood and he witnessed the tail end of the passionate embrace. It made him sick and his eyes narrowed. Quon sat let her slide down and she blushed madly as she brushed his very now hard member.

 

“Remember what I can do to you my little inu.” He said as he kissed her ear.

 

He stared at Hideaki and he suddenly ported via his shoki mist She stood there unable to move and blushing hotly.

 

“A tiger? You mated a tiger?” He roared behind her.

 

“My sire knows in my era.” She said in a hoarse tone.

 

“Are you ever bent over and taken like an inu bitch ever?” He asked snidely.

 

Asuna turned red faced and stared at him.

 

“I did not ask for your attentions general and for your information I rather enjoy being bent over like a bitch. Makes me crazed. I have wyvern and basilisk to hunt, damn you!” She snarled.

 

She ported out and he sat down more then shocked. He was stunned silly and he stood suddenly. Hideaki too could port and he ported to the dragon castle.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Drostan was on his throne and he stared at black basilisk that had been kin to Amedeo. His cold blue eyes held hatred and more.

 

“You still refuse to speak filth?” He asked with boredom.

 

“Si.” The young male stated.

 

“Take him. I want him drawn and quartered.” Drostan Mochrie stated as he stood.

 

The young male looked terrified but he tried to do his cousin honor and he decided he would die well. He had found this basilisk quite by accident searching for the woman he desired so badly. He had slipped back in time to find her and the wraith king too was searching for a missing child. Drostan wanted to watch the little black basilisk scream in agony and a nasty smile spread across his face. What he did not know nor had he counted on was the object of his desire within his very citadel. She saw the young basilisk and he could be no more then three or four centuries. Reptiles stopped aging if they hibernated and this one had apparently. She waited for Drostan to leave and she followed the nasty looked brown and orange wyvern. She had been spying for awhile now and she was heavy with child. Akemi suddenly pulled her naginata and she let her purity go. She swung it and sliced open the throat of one wyvern and whirled around and stabbed the other in the heart. Death as instant to both and the black basilisk stared in shock at the tiny and very pregnant femmina who had just rescued him.

 

“What in the Gods name?” He asked stunned.

 

“Come on!” She said taking his hand.

 

“Si. Who are you?” He asked surprised.

 

“My name is Akemi and I know you are Bartemus. I am going to call you Bartie.” She smiled sweetly.

 

The young black basilisk eyes widened and he wanted to laugh his head off but chose instead to grab the small femmina and phase out. They appeared near Roma and he was so thrilled that he was not going to suffer a heinous death.

 

“How did you know femmina?” He asked curiously.

 

“Mated to an Asian dragon lord. My name is Higurashi Akemi and Ryukotsusei is my mate. Drostan kidnapped me and used me ill. My mate and his brother have been hunting him down and now I have no clue where they are. I was hoping to find out but it looks like I may deliver my babes sooner rather then later.” She said heavily.

 

“You carry Mochrie's child?” Bartemus asked shocked.

 

“Hai. He shares my womb with a water dragon and I will not have that bastard wyvern turn him evil. He will have holy powers as well. Are you any relation to a black basilisk named Amedeo Servius?” Akemi asked sitting on a rock.

 

“Si! He is my cousin.” He said nodding emphatically.

 

“Well good. My cousin is married to him.” She said standing and taking his arm.

 

“I cannot believe you just waltzed in and kicked their asses!” He said surprised.

 

“I have been trained with my weapon. No issue.” She shrugged.

 

“I owe you my life femmina!” Bartemus said bowing and then kissing her hands.

 

“Well let us find our cousins so they can help us kick wyvern ass, okay?” Akemi asked hopeful.

 

“Anything you wish my lady. If you wish for me to skewer the nads of Drostan Mochrie himself femmina then I shall.” He said chuckling.

 

“One thing at a time. First we have to find our cousins, and then we get revenge.” She said with a nasty smirk.
