I woke in the morning, but it was still dark out, and I couldn't feel my legs. Not really that surprising since I was sleeping with a woman that was a part snake but completely adorable.
I gently tried to uncoiled Mary from me, but I had no luck and even got growled at. This wouldn't do, and I needed to get going, so I leaned down and grabbed the end of Mary's tail that was trying to squeeze the life out of me.
I started to rub it, and Mary started to tighten on me, but then loosened up and let me slide myself out of her grasp. After I did, Mary curled up but never woke up, and I was glad for that.
I didn't think that Mary was a morning person, and waking her up might not be suitable for my continued good health. I smiled at the thought and then tried to stand up, but it didn't work out properly for me.
I tumbled to the floor and lay still for a moment, trying to get some feeling back into my legs, a
I had forgotten to ask Mex about how to get there, but I couldn't turn back. I did remember where I had to go to get there for the most part.So, I bolted out of the house but slowed to close the door quietly. Once it was latched, I took off running to the front gate entrance of the Keep.There were no guards at the gates as I ran out. I was surprised by that, but I guess they were more just for show, considering who Mex was.I didn't really have the time to be worrying about that right now, and I took off running. Though not too fast, I didn't want to gas myself as soon as I got started.It was still mostly dark, but the sun was slowly starting to lighten the sky as I ran down the path to where I would be training with Grovel later. Once I arrived, I looked to the northwest.I was looking for the top of the Maze that I had seen before but noticed a path. That hadn't been t
"You can't run forever, little man! We will catch you!" Veronica called out as I ran.These women were so damn annoying, and out to make this whole process take far longer then it needed to! Making my life hell was an understatement, and what was with this girl?How the hell could she run fast enough to outdistance me no matter how fast I ran?! It seemed like every time I sped up, so did she, and I was starting to believe the Sphinxes."You are never going to catch her! The woman is more than a head and a half taller than you!" Candice called up to me, but I was not going to be beat.I blocked the girls out and started to focus on my breathing; even, deep and powerful breaths. In my mouth and then out my nose, but something was different, and my body started to pump up, and push harder.The Mana or Magic that was replacing the water in my body was reacting differently, and suddenly I felt like I was barely jogging. Each breath made my steps light,
"Look, since neither one of us can do it, then what If I try to find you a male of your own species or at least something close? I don't know how successful I will be, but I will try, and that is the best that I can do," I said, and Veronica's expression brightened a bit."Really, you would do something like this for me?" Veronica asked me hopefully, and I nodded my head.Now, time to get what I want, as horrible as that might sound, which was a trade of services."Okay, so I will do this thing for you, but I need help, and it will probably make your lives easier. How can I get Jessabell from here? I need to take her back to Mex's Keep, but I can't just scoop her up and run off with her, right?" I asked, and Veronica lifted an eyebrow at me."Why not? The Master must have told you about her. Jessabell is Omniphobic, and a Hypochondriac, so you will need to either knock her out or cover her up completely. That will be the only way that you will get her out
"So, how do I go about catching her?" I asked the two Sphinx's, now that we were on better terms."You have to be quiet and sneak up on her and then put the blanket over her head," Candice explained, but Veronica shook her head."No, that won't work now. You know how Jess gets once she is scared, and there will be no way for us to sneak up on her. Climb onto my back, and then move up, so you are tight to my neck. You will have to put the blanket over your head and then bury yourself in my mane," Veronica explained to me as she lowered herself down to me."Are you sure," I asked as I walked up to Veronica, holding the strange patchwork blanket I had been given."Yes, she already said she was ready to let you inside of her, so why would she care if you rode on her?" Candice said as she walked by me and then bumped me with her back end into her sister.Yes, well, that was true, and she was bonded to me, but I still wasn't sure what that meant. I climb
The sounds that Jessabell was making had stopped, and when she spoke again, I was very close to where she was. So close that I need to restrain myself from trying to peek out of the blanket that was covering me."The Master did say that when he found me, but even he is scary! I heard how he makes you cry out when he visits! I don't want to cry like that!" Jessabell cried, and now I could tell that Veronica must be almost right beside her."What the Master does to me doesn't hurt me that much, and I ask him to do it to me. I think if you tried it with someone, you might feel less trepidation about it," Candice said, and that was my cue.I sat up and pulled the blanket off me and was hit with a wave of excitement, nervousness, and adrenaline, all at the same time. It was like sitting at a desk with a blindfold on and then taking it off to find that I was on a rollercoaster that was just about to hit the shit and do a twenty-meter drop.I turned to a horror-
"No, Mex mixed my words up; I have enough things to worry about right now. Let's get back quick; I still have a bunch of stuff to do," I said to the girls, and Veronica started moving without saying anything.I was going to have to figure out something for this, but Veronica also didn't need to get sensitive about this kind of thing. I was just a man helping women, not one that was tied to them… well, maybe I was a little bit."I am sure that Clesh will find her way into your bed if the Master assumes she is. Most demon women don't like demon men because they go… demons on them, and that is fine with me, but you can see how a smaller creature might not enjoy it," Candice said as we started to walk.That was fair, and after seeing how big Mex had gotten before, I was able to understand. I guess that I wouldn't mind if Clesh or the other women snuck into my bed, but I didn't have time for women fighting over stupid things like that.I continue
I looked over at Veronica as I walked around, where she was still bent down at my height. Now that I was up close to Veronica's face, I could see just how much bigger she was than me."Thank you for all your help, girls, and especially you, Veronica. Thank you for giving me a ride," I said, and I walked up to Veronica's face and then kissed her cheek that was even larger than Jilly's.I could feel the heat start to radiate off Veronica's face as she crawled back from me, and that stood back up in shock. I watched her lift one of her paws up to touch the place that I had kissed, and I turned around to head into the Keep."Find some shade so you can both keep cool. I will send someone out to bring you water and food," I said as I awkwardly opened the door and slipped into the Keep.The door closed behind me, and I sighed and then started walking up the Astroturf stairs. Jessabell was awake, but she was shaking and staying quiet as I carried her to Nixi's ro
I turned around and then ran back down the stairs and outside, turning to the left and heading to my place sprinting, but stopped when I saw a strange-looking woman holding a vicious-looking sword."Hey! Yes, you! There isn't anyone else out here!" The woman said to me with a growl.She was short and had teal skin but darker than Mary's, and she had what I would consider being Egyptian features. The sword she was carrying was a scimitar, but the blade was jagged like a saw."What would you like? Keita? Is that your name? You're the Mad scientist with all the failed creations, right?" I asked, and then she threw the swords at me.Instantly, without warning, my Totem Mark started to glow, and time slowed, and I watched the jagged scimitar fly at me. It was very elegantly crafted for all of the Jigsaw vibes it was throwing off, but I really hoped that Jilly wasn't mad and me for taking so long.The blade still hadn't reached me yet, and I was starting
