Aether Beasts

Chapter 216

A Large tree stood before me, reaching up into the sky, its roots dug deep into a verdant land. My eyes were locked onto its majesty, and all else was blurry. I thought it was day but I could not have said if asked as all my mind was focused on the tree. In the back of my mind, I realized this was a dream, but I could not do anything but focus on the tree. The wind whistled and a few of the branches and leaves of the great tree rustled, and for a moment I swear I could hear words, as though the tree was speaking to me.

"Aiden, find us, dig your roots deeper."

I felt a pulling sensation and things began to darken and fade.

The wind picked up. "The queen is the link, but even before we called, we all called. Find…"

Darkness took over my vision and all went black, the words being cut off. I felt dizzy and like I couldn't think properly, but any hope of waking myself up was dashed as a new scene formed around me, far different than the tree and verdant lands.

A fiery star burned in the night, and I floated in front of it, but its heat did not burn me, nor did its light blind me. I only felt warmth and something more. The flame roared and just like the tree, I swear I could hear words.

"Do not let the twisted lords near, the queen is a risk, bind her fully or burn her out."

Its words were so odd, made up of roading flame, and so different from the gentle rustling of the branches and leaves. Before I could ask what or even muster enough focus to do anything but look and listen, I felt a warm sensation overtake my lower region and the start began to fade as a new light bloomed.

"Bind her or burn her," were the last words I heard before I blinked my eyes open and let out a groan of pleasure.

A wave of vertigo overwhelmed me and thoughts and memories from a moment ago slowly began to fade, all but the words. My mind didn't remain on the dreams for long however as I let out another groan and looked down to see Misty bobbing her head up and down of hard shaft, taking me deep into her throat, and lavishing my silken flesh with her warm and skilled tongue.

"Oh fuck, Misty."

Pleasure coursed through me as she took me in and out of her mouth. Meanwhile, one of her hands massaged my balls while the other stroked what parts were not in her mouth. I moved a hand down and began to guide her up and down, speeding her up, which she allowed.

Soon I was at the edge. "Misty I'm cumming."

She let out a moan and then shoved me all the way down her throat. I burst, and my warm seed flooded down her throat and into her stomach. Shot after shot of cum filled her stomach until only a trickle was left.

I let out a content sigh as she pulled back, and cleaned me along the way. When only the tip was left she sucked and drank down the few remaining drops before releasing me.

"What a way to wake up."

She smiled and licked her lips. "I'm glad you enjoyed that because we're not done yet."

Misty moved up onto her knees and then positioned her opening just above my manhood. She was quite literally dripping wet, the pleasure from my orgasm having raised her pleasure. Her eyes locked onto my own as she slowly lowered herself down, her warm channel taking me in until I was balls deep inside her.

I moved my hands to her sides and up until I grasped her breasts. "You want me to move or do want control?"

Instead of responding, she began to bounce up and down on me.

I massaged her breasts and we spent a near an hour like that, enjoying each other before I burst and filled her while she screamed and spasmed atop me in the throes of her own climax.

"You two finally done!" I heard Sandra call, and I glanced at the door, realizing that it wasn't fully shut.

Misty and I chuckled before the blonde shouted back, "Yes, we'll be out in a minute unless you want a turn?"

There was silence for a long moment before Sandra called back. "As much as I want to, I'll save it for later. Now hurry up there's some good news."

"We shouldn't keep her waiting then," I said and the two of us quickly got and dressed. Misty went for a more casual dress rather than her usual robes while I went with some shorts and a shirt because I had training and no reason to wear the robes. I wasn't planning on heading onto the city.

Sandra was at the table, eating fruit from what looked like a very exotic fruit salad. It was made up of a few fruits I recognized but most were foreign to my eyes. There was also toast, yogurt, and a few other dishes.

"Have fun?" Sandra asked.

"Of course," Misty said, sitting next to Sandra and immediately filling up a plate with small cakes and pastries.

"Sweet fangs indeed."

Misty rolled her eyes as I took a seat and dug into the bowl of fruit. It tasted amazing like everything else I had tried here and the mix of fruits was perfect. I added some cream from a small bowl nearby and honey which made it taste even better.

"So what's the good news?" Misty asked as I ate.

"And where's Zirani?"

"Well Zirani went off to speak to Aeverie," Sandra explained. "And the good news is that the plan worked. The slaver ring is done, but not just that."

Sandra shook her head. "That lady is something else."

"What happened?" I asked.

"She changed the entire city," Sandra explained. "At least that is what Zirani told me. Apparently, there is a new mayor, new guards and basically, all the criminals and problems have been… taken care of."

"Taken care of?" Misty raised an eyebrow. "As in…"

Sandra nodded. "Aeverie has set up new people and with what Zirani told me before she left, things are looking very good."

"Well that is good news," I said.

I felt a small weight lift from my chest as I had been thinking about it, and I was definitely glad that things had worked and that not only was the slave ring gone, but that the city would improve. It made me think of just how much was possible with the power and resources those from the lands beyond the scar had. If Aeverie stayed she could probably take over the plains and do the same for every city. She wouldn't of course, but I couldn't help but think of just how good of an idea that would be.

When I did return would I be able to do that, would I be able to do even more? I shook my head, Best not to think about that. After all, I hadn't even left the plains yet and there was still a long way to go.

"What's everyone's plan for the day?"

"Some training and I also wanna spend some time with Shana," Misty said.

"I'm going to relax," Sandra said. "I might have a look around some of the other groups, but not the Umbrin."

"Be careful," I said. "Don't wander off anywhere too far away. I'll be training with Zirani."

"Indeed you will," she sent over through the bond. "I'm currently with Aeverie but I'll be back soon. Prepare yourself."

"Don't I always?"

"Zirani is what Sandra said true?"

"It is," she replied. "Aeveire has outdone herself this time, and I suspect the city of Evenord will be the greatest and most peaceful place in all the plains, at least this close to the border. The girls have all been moved and are receiving help. It will be harder for some to heal than others, but they'll get all the tools and help they need, not to mention all the other projects that will be taking place in the city."

I had a smile on my face for the rest of breakfast and after we finish, the three of us separated. Sandra said she would be remaining inside for a while and taking a long bath while Misty and I headed out to the area where Zirani had been training us yesterday. It was the largest empty space in the green court area, and apart from the central area of the plaza, a great place to train. We could use the central area, but that would attract a lot of attention, especially on Zirani, and I didn't want to be distracted. The dryads giving me heated looks and sultry smiles would be bad enough without getting into a fight with some idiot who would stare too long at Misty or try something.

Zirani appeared only minutes later as Misty and I were getting ready. "Good you're both here, then let's begin."
