Chapter 26. The Forest
Emily’s point of view:
I don’t know how to form words at this moment. I was at a complete loss and in total ecstasy when I came just now. It felt so amazing that I almost wanted to jump him again if it weren’t for the fact that my body was drained of energy. Not to mention the trembling feeling I had in my legs, which stopped me from enduring any movement, other than laying still at this moment.
This was my first time and he was so gentle with me. The warm water, his strong sexy body and the things he said made me just give in. I know he just wanted me to relax for a moment, and the warm water did that in the first place, but I needed a different distraction right now. We have taken quite some time to come to this moment and got interrupted as well, but when he said he loved me, I knew he was the right guy for me.
The moment his flesh pushed against my core was such an intense moment. Then, when he lowered me onto him, it made me feel in such ecstasy that I held onto him so tightly. I think I even made small puncture wounds on his shoulders with my nails!
The intrusion hurt a bit at first, just like he said, but then when he continued, it felt so good! The moment when he laid me down in the water and the sensation that I got when he played with me while thrusting into me, is indescribable. My whole body was trembling in surrender, feeling aroused, hot and loving at the same time. This was how it was meant to be. The passion and love between two human beings with such an intense feeling at the end. It felt like I was in heaven. This moment was just plain perfect.
We sat under the waterfall again, washing and getting warm. This shower of hot spring water was very nice and I thought about all the other moments that we’ve had so far and felt that it had been too bad that I couldn’t feel this way earlier. If I knew he was so passionate and good at what he did, I would have jumped on him like a horny bunny on the first day.
I giggled.
“What’s so funny?” Brock asked.
“I was thinking about every moment we got interrupted or when you decided to leave me half-naked. What if we did this the first day when you came into my room?” She said.
“If I knew it would feel this good with you, I would’ve tied you to the bed and I would have taken advantage of you every hour of the day. You felt so good just now, that it’s hard for me to not jump you again.” He said smiling and kissing me on my forehead.
“Hmm, I might like that tying-up part, maybe you should do that when we get home.” And he glared at me hungrily when I said that, even though I surprised myself a little with that bold statement.
We got dressed and walked, well he had to carry me upstairs to the camp. The men chuckled and I blushed at the thought that they had heard us. Brock walked with me, behind Rhydon, and laid my sleeping bag on the floor. I crawled into it and he laid himself behind me covering himself with a blanket, and then I fell asleep in his arms.
When I woke up early in the morning, I noticed that Brock wasn’t behind me anymore.
“Morning love, did you sleep well?” He asked when he walked around Rhydon.
“Yes, I had to replenish my energy from last night so I slept very deep.” I smiled while saying that.
Brock grinned and told me that everything was packed and ready again, for the group to travel further. He gave me some slices of meat from yesterday evening and a flask with fresh water from the spring. I ate and drank hungrily before mounting Rhydon to continue our journey to the castle again. Miles wagged his tail slightly, seeing me happy in comparison to yesterday. Of course, I was still very sad that Dolly wasn’t close to me, but now I got a new thing to focus on, to keep my mind busy. Brock’s hard, sexy, gorgeous body!
We drove all day and only stopped for a few moments to get the men to relieve themselves and then we continued further. Food was shared while moving, and conversations were made between Brock’s men and me. They told me so much different stories about their adventures and some embarrassing things as well. I had to laugh out loud sometimes and Brock just watched my gaze from a distance. Never leaving me out of his sight.
I was glad that Rhydon’s back was so wide, so I could sit cross-legged. It still felt a little sore down under so I wasn’t able to sit with spread legs like I would have to on the back of a horse. I stood up on Rhydon’s back and stretched my body with my hands in the air. As I stood so tall now, while Rhydon just kept moving, I could suddenly see some strange flying creatures in the far distance. There was some sort of egg-shaped wooden globes hanging from the trees and those strange birds flew in and out of them. They had the body of a human, wings instead of arms, a beak instead of a mouth and their feet looked like the talons of a big bird.
“What are those?” I asked perplexed while pointing at them.
“Crazy harpies, don’t approach them. They are not human, nor animal.” Said one of Brock’s men.
“They will tear your skin from your flesh with those talons of them, nasty creatures.” Said another.
And thus, we continued to ride further when the scenery suddenly changed. From the grassy lands that we were travelling on to the forest, we were about to enter.
The trees of this forest are very tall, with bright red leaves in their branches, at least twenty yards up. At the bottom of the trees, the roots stuck out from the ground, as if they had just taken a stroll around the forest and didn’t have time to sink into the ground yet before we came to see them. The trees are so wide and the gaps between the roots are so big that Rhydon can easily walk underneath them. This sight amazed me, as I have never seen any trees like these before! But I was glad that this wasn’t a normal forest, as otherwise, Rhydon wouldn’t have fit, walking in between trees.
We reached a beautiful small pond and I asked if we could set up camp here for tonight.
“No, I’m sorry Princess, I don’t think the General would like that for one bit.” Said one of the men.
“Why not? It looks so serene and I would like to freshen up a little.” I said.
“No love, we can’t. This forest is owned by a tribe of wood-elves and they only let us pass here because they have an agreement with the King, your father. We have to continue and set up camp beyond the border.” Said Brock and I was slightly disappointed as the pond looked very nice and the water looked so clean. The beautiful lilies touching the surface of the water and the frogs jumping in the water from them made me all happy inside.
Brock’s point of view:
“Shanouera yvotec’d demoy.” Was said in whispers from an Elf that walked on the mushrooms that were attached to one of the trees on the left. The Elf looked at Emily and I grabbed the handle of my sword.
“Thank you, I like the Rhydian as well, his name is Rhydon.” Emily suddenly said.
What the hell? Could she understand that Elf? How?
“Nomoiste de Rhydon tomo te gec?” The Elf said in his strange language again.
“I don’t know exactly. Brock, when did Rhydon eat last? He says he looks a bit hungry.”
Now my jaw dropped to the floor and all my men started to whisper.
“Love, how can you understand this Elf?” I asked, completely flabbergasted by what she is doing now.
“What do you mean, he just speaks English, like you just did to me.” She frowned at me like I am seeing ghosts.
Emily’s point of view:
The Elf, whose name I came to learn is Norim, invited me to take a seat close to the lake I enjoyed so much earlier. He wore green leather clothing and was looking very thin and light-footed. Hence the reason he could walk on the conks, without breaking them.
We began to talk and he explained to me that he is the leader of the Wood-Elves, and he told me that he actually didn’t speak English. I was confused to hear him say that, as whatever he said, was clear to me as much as I know how the day turns into night. He said that I was ‘chosen’ and because of that, I could understand him. And even though he couldn’t speak English, the reason he understood me, was because he could read my mind, as he was a high mage.
We continued our talk and I asked him what the ‘chosen’ meant, but he said I would come to know about it very soon. It was really strange that he wouldn’t tell me what it meant, but he seemed such a gentle creature, so I would remind myself to ask him later. Instead, I asked him if we could stay here for the night. As he said earlier, Rhydon might be hungry and I think the men and I could use some food and sleep as well. He told me that Rhydon could eat as much fruit as he liked, but that we had to eat whatever food we brought along ourselves. Because it was alright with him for Rhydon to eat their foods, as he was a creature of nature, who couldn’t take care of his own. But the Wood-Elves didn’t want us to plunder their forest too.
Brock’s point of view:
“No starting fires, no gathering of the forests riches, just eat what we have and sleep on the grass between the trees. So, please dismount your horses and Gryphons so we could get some proper sleep. The animals would like that as well.” Emily said with a firm voice and the men looked up at me.
I was still amazed by the fact she could understand what the Elf said but I just accepted it, she has so many abilities that I’m not even daring to think what else she can do more.
“Well, you heard her. I might be your General but she is your Princess!”
More Elves came from the trees and placed fruit at Rhydon’s head and he ate every piece of it. I saw Emily smile at her pet and she spoke cute words to him. I told her that I didn’t know Rhydians liked fruit so much, as I always thought they ate meat since Orcs controlled them and they were big meat eaters themselves.
“Nomocte Itay de arom y ai’dy.” I heard this female Elf say to me and Emily giggled.
“She said you should look further than what your eyes see. She basically called you stubborn.” She giggled again and my men chuckled as well.
