A Monster Life Ch. 07-09

'Nice one.' said Iphigenia when she caught up.

He nodded and pulled out her arrow. 'Good shot. It wouldn't have gotten far.'

They carved up the carcass and divided the meat in a couple of sacks. Ulric spotted large orange berries in a bush and took a closer look. 'Are these edible?'

Iphigenia looked at them. 'Oh, yes, they are. They're called puffberries and have a sweet-sour taste. You eat them by cutting the stem and then bite down.'

He cut one stem with his claw and put the berry in his mouth. The moment he bit down his mouth was hit with a sweet-sour juice explosion. Iphigenia laughed as he coughed and wiped juice from his muzzle. He looked at her. 'Oh, you like that, eh?' he said, cut another berry loose, and chased her for a short distance before tackling her onto the ground and grinning at her while she laughed and covered her mouth. 'Have one yourself.' She grabbed his wrist and wrestled while he tried to put it in her mouth. The puffberry exploded at the touch of her lips and Iphigenia laughed more while her face was covered.

She licked her lips and smiled mischievously at him. 'My whole face is covered now, what are you going to do about it?'

He hummed. 'Well, since I look like a canine anyway.' he said and lapped her whole face with his long tongue.

She laughed again and tried to push him off until he stopped and smirked at her. 'Satisfied?'

She chuckled and grabbed the fur of his cheeks. 'Not even close.' she said and pulled his face down to kiss him.

Their tongues wrapped in a sweet-sour greeting and they enjoyed every bit of the fresh taste. Her fingers ran through his fur with some urgency, and he slipped one paw underneath her tunic and cupped her breast while teasing her nipple with his thumb. She moaned softly and rubbed her thigh between his legs. 'I want you, Wolfie.'

He pulled back and smiled. 'You'll get me then.' he said and pulled up her tunic and helped her out of her breeches, then smiled once more at the naked woman lying in the grass before him. 'You're beautiful.'

She blushed and smiled, and reached out for him. 'And you're my handsome Wolfie.'

He leaned down and kissed her again while attending to her other breast and nipple, and she ran one hand through his fur while stroking his growing erection slowly.

Elzbieta had finished setting the fire and tending to her armour and sword when she looked towards the trees where the deer had been. She'd seen them flee towards another clump of trees but nothing had moved since then. She looked up at the slowly darkening horizon and drummed her fingers on her chest piece next to her. 'They better not be in trouble.' she said to herself, contemplated checking up on them, and stood up to have a look to relieve her worry.'

As she approached the trees the skin of her breasts itched softly and she rubbed her chest. The itch didn't go away but it grew stronger and she noticed it wasn't just an itch. It was if someone stroked her. She gasped briefly and her nipples grew hard at the sudden sense of gentle pinching. She looked around but it was not as if someone was near.

Ulric licked Iphigenia's breasts and nipples and she hummed in pleasure at his gentle bites in her sensitive skin. She grabbed and released his thick neck fur while her fingers ran through it and pushed up her chest at his muzzle. 'If only you had two tongues.' she half giggled and moaned.

He grinned. 'If only I had more of certain body parts I'd do a lot more than lick you all over.' he said and slid one paw down along her side and cupped her butt cheek.

She tensed it once and hummed more in pleasure while he stroked her at the edge of her thigh and sent pleasant shivers up her behind.

Elzbieta gasped again when something held her behind and spun around to see what did it. There was nothing behind her but the sensations on her body kept going. Cold shivers ran up her spine at the thought she might be attacked by some ghost and she hurried towards the trees to find Iphigenia and Ulric. The sensations became stronger and her body reacted like she never experienced before. Her heart beat stronger, the shivering turned warm, and the touch became more pleasant. She slowed down and felt like sitting down until she rounded the trees far enough to see Iphigenia and Ulric together in the grass at a little distance.

She ducked behind a bush and stared at the bloodwolf licking Iphigenia and stroking her behind in the same way she sensed his touch on her own body. Her heart raced at the image of him doing this to her and she breathed harder at the sudden tingling inside her chest and abdomen.

'No, no no. I can't give in into that pervert.' she groaned but the grip on her mound made her gasp and weakened her legs.

Iphigenia bit her lip and moaned when Ulric grabbed her mound and massaged it. She pushed it up against his paw and moaned softly while heat filled her abdomen and his fingers slipped between her folds. 'I love your touch.' she breathed.

He sucked once on her nipple and smiled. 'I also love to touch you.' he said and guided his tongue down to her navel, dipped his tip into it after rounding it and made her shiver, and moved further down.

Elzbieta moaned as she watched Ulric's muzzle sink between Iphigenia's thighs and sensed his tongue licking her own swollen and hot mound. She couldn't touch or cover herself there as if his head was actually between her own legs and licking her. She couldn't even close her legs and her hips swayed back and forth as more pleasure filled her body at his ghostly attention. 'Ah!' she cried when something entered her and touched her swollen clit, and she shook all over at the rush spreading out from deep inside her. 'Nooo..' she moaned and gripped the branches in front of her but her body already wanted more.

'Aaahhh.. Yesss..' moaned Iphigenia when heat filled her abdomen from within and tingles spread out as he licked her hard clit. She gripped the grass between her fingers while spreading her legs wide for the beast between her legs. His tongue found every part of her hot and wet flesh and lapped her with firm pleasure. Her lower body tensed at his gentle bite in her mound and trembled at the nibble on her clit. 'Oh Wolfie! she moaned. 'Eat me however you like!'

He growled and she squirmed in pleasure as he used his fangs on her again, biting her clit, her mound, and into her folds.

Elzbieta groaned and fell forward onto the ground, her behind sticking up high and her body desiring more of the new pinching sensation. 'Don't.. Please.. Stop..' She took a deep breath when it stopped, then gasped when something more entered her and began massaging her insides in slow circles. The wet stroking of her clit continued and she groaned harder while her hips pressed her mound at the nothing that brought her this new experience of physical pleasure. Hot tingles rushed through her and her body tensed instinctively in anticipation of what was to come.

Iphigenia pressed her mound against Ulric's muzzle and squeezed his fingers while she sensed her climax crawling closer. 'Wolfie!' she moaned. 'Wolfie!' He growled louder and pressed his fingers deeper to massage her womb and sucked hard on her clit.

The increased pressure inside Iphigenia sent her mind into darkness as the hot flash exploded in her body.

Elzbieta cried out into the grass when her mind filled with bright stars and her body trembled at the sudden release of tension.

Iphigenia smiled at Ulric and reached out for him. 'Take me, Wolfie.' she breathed. 'I want you deep inside.'

He smiled and licked her juices once more, then moved up. 'I'll fill you up with everything I have, Iphi.' he whispered and let her guide him towards the right spot. He sighed in pleasure while she moaned softly as her hot flesh tightly enveloped him to the hilt. He ground against her mound with his lower abdomen and against her womb with the tip of his dick.

'Ohhh Wolfie. That feels so good.'

He growled softly in her neck while sparks rushed from his tip to his balls. 'I can't get enough of touching you this deep.'

She gripped his neck. 'I'm all yours for you when you want to.'

He growled more and slid his dick slow but firm back and forth against her depths.

Elzbieta inhaled sharply and almost couldn't breath when something hot and thick filled her up and stretched her insides. She'd barely taken a breath when it was forced out again by pumping motions inside her. She moaned and her hips pressed upwards to receive more of the sensation. 'Oh shit.. Why does it have to feel so good..' she groaned loud when a hard thrust hit her womb and resonated through her body.

Iphigenia moaned hard at each deliberate thrust of Ulric's dick inside her. He growled more as the urge to come deep inside her spurred him on. 'I'll fill your body so much with my seed you'll have to bear puppies one day.'

She grabbed his neck and gazed into his eyes. 'Give it to me then.' she breathed. 'I'll carry your mighty offspring.'

He kissed her deep and their tongues entwined while her body hungered for him and her desire flared up the hot itch inside his dick.

Elzbieta groaned and the image of her pregnant self triggered a hot flash inside her. She buckled her hips at the pounding sensation in her abdomen and against her mound and spread her legs further to receive more of what was taking her. 'Oh shiiit.. I'll get pregnant.. How can it be from him..?' she moaned but the thought only excited her more. She buried her face in the grass and gripped it tight between her fingers as she moaned in pleasure and shame.

Ulric growled louder and his thrust became erratic when the pressure inside his dick and balls reached it limit. Iphigenia felt him tense inside her and squeezed him hard to satisfy her body's desire for her seed. 'Yes!' she moaned. 'Come inside me!'

'I'll fill you up again!' he growled between clenched teeth as the sparks shooting through his tip and balls became unbearable, and growled deep and long when the hot stream shot through them and flooded her depths.

The heat spreading inside her pushed Iphigenia into another climax and her body trembled at receiving his gift.

Elzbieta cried out at the flash of heat filling her and sending her mind into another star filled climax. She panted hard and her insides throbbed and tightened to squeeze out more of whatever was injected into her depths, and couldn't believe that that pervert somehow had made her feel as good as she'd never felt before. It was something she wanted to experience with a man of her own choice but the way she was now, her ugly self would never have the family she dreamed of before. She pushed herself up in a sitting position and groaned at the sensitivity of her body, and sighed at the thought of resigning herself to accept him as a lover. A chuckle escaped her at the memory of him saying she looked good and her missing limbs didn't matter. She groaned and grabbed her hair. "Why are you confusing me so!?" she thought.

Ulric pulled back from another long passionate kiss. 'I think we'd better return. Elzbieta must be waiting and getting impatient by now.'

Iphigenia chuckled. 'Yeah. But we better freshen up first.'

When they arrived at their camp Iphigenia stared at Elzbieta's red face. 'What have you been up to?'

Elzbieta threw another piece of wood on the fire and kept her eyes on it. 'Just some exercise. Was the hunt satisfactory?'

Iphigenia smiled and glanced at Ulric who looked away. 'It sure was. Plenty of meat.'

Ulric smelled a familiar but different scent coming from Elzbieta and turned away before the stir it caused in his loins created more trouble for him.

09 - Rescue

The long, grassy, downward slope behind the next forest revealed the low mountains marking the border to orc territory two days later. Iphigenia watched the plains before them with the occasional tree along a wide, shallow river, and a herd of woolly cows grazing at a distance. She looked at Ulric and pointed at the pine forest at the foot of the range. 'That's where we're heading for. The orcs live on the other side of those mountains.'

He peered at the ridge for a moment. 'We have to cross them or is there another way?'

'We'll have to go over as far as I know.'

He hummed at the thought of nothing but bare rock around them. 'I hope you packed warm socks. It doesn't look like it'll be a cosy walk.'

She chuckled. 'I think I know something better to keep me warm.' she said and stroked his neck.

He smiled but Elzbieta cleared her throat. 'Can you please keep things decent while I'm around?'

One corner of Iphigenia's mouth went up. 'Hmm? A little jealous maybe? I've noticed you've been looking at Wolfie often lately.'

Elzbieta huffed and looked away. 'No way I'd be jealous about this mutt! I just don't want weird things happening again!'

Iphigenia stroked Ulric's muzzle. 'Oh, but they're wonderful weird things. You should try it.'

Elzbieta's face turned red. 'Why would I want to do that with him!?'

Iphigenia grinned. 'Did I say anything about doing it with Wolfie?'

Elzbieta's mouth opened but she was speechless.

Ulric sat up straight and held up his paws. 'Girls, girls, no bickering.' he said and looked at Elzbieta. 'There's not going to be weird things happening. We're facing serious business soon over there.'

Elzbieta took a deep breath. 'Indeed. So let's go before the day is over and we're still out in the open.' she said and marched off.

He looked at Iphigenia. 'Don't tease her so much. She's a serious girl.'

Iphigenia chuckled and kissed him. 'She's been so tense lately, I just want her to loosen up a little.'

He nodded. 'Just give her time to get used to the situation. Even I feel less strange about being here sometimes.'

She smiled gently and stroked his neck again. 'All right, I'll behave.'

***

After a brief pause at the river to freshen up with a quick bath in the cool water, they reached the edge of the forest well before dark. Ulric peered into the light shade farther in between the trees. 'Camp here or continue until dark?'

Iphigenia looked at Elzbieta. 'I think it's better to go in. We didn't see anyone in the plains but it would be best not to have a fire out here attracting unwanted attention.'

Elzbieta nodded. 'I agree. We're too close to orc territory to take risks.'

Ulric stretched. 'In we go then.'

The farther in they walked the more the hushed silence weighed on Ulric. The constant noise of city life back home was something he was so used to that silence in nature seemed worse to his ears. And they were larger and more sensitive on top of that as well. He tried to focus on the soft sounds of insects buzzing around, the occasional creaking of a branch, their footsteps on the soft underground, the faint crack of a whip.

He froze and pricked up his ears.

Iphigenia looked at him. 'What is it, Wolfie?'

He put a finger to his lips and waited. Another faint crack confirmed it, he had heard it indeed. 'Something up ahead. Sounds to me like a whip.' Wood cracked and chopping sounded. 'I think they're felling trees.'

Elzbieta placed her hand on her sword. 'Might be orcs but might be others as well. I suggest we take a careful peek.'

They tread more silently towards the noise and Ulric picked up voices soon. Harsh, throaty voices. 'Orcs?' Iphigenia and Elzbieta drew their swords and kept a watchful eye around while they continued on.

From the cover of a bush they saw into a clearing how several gruff pig faced orcs ordered slaves around to chop down trees and clear them with the help of woolly cows. Their whips cracked and when they hit one of the human or elf slaves they laughed terribly at their cries of pain. Ulric growled low and shifted his fur but Elzbieta stuck out her arm to hold him back before he stood up. 'Do you want to free those people?' she whispered.

'Of course!'

She gestured to an orc at the rear gesturing in the air. 'That orc is probably tatting. If we attack them just like that we'll alert all of them to our presence. And there are too many of them to take on directly without trouble. They might even use the slaves as shield or kill them before they can escape.'

Ulric gnashed his teeth but she was right. They'd cause more harm than did good if they attacked now.

'We could try a sneak attack in the dark.' Iphigenia said.

Elzbieta stared at the site. 'That might work.'

'Take them out silently one by one when they're separate from the rest.' Ulric said when one orc stepped away into the back while loosening his breeches.

Elzbieta nodded. 'They're probably less alert after their meal.'

He growled low when an old man was beaten while he tried to help an elf woman who had tripped. 'Then we'll do that. And if we still alert the rest it's too bad.' he looked up at the darker blue sky. 'It better be dark real soon.'

***

Slaves were driven into wooden cages at dark and the orcs gathered around loudly stuffing themselves and drinking until some yawned and retreated to the back under the cover of hides held up by poles.

One orc belched loud, dropped the bone with meat he was eating, and unsteadily got to his feet to stagger outside the clearing looking for a spot to relieve himself. He had barely found a good place to squat when powerful paws covered his mouth and clawed his chest and a sharp pain hit his throat. He shook for a moment before eternal void accepted him.

Iphigenia nodded at Ulric and wiped her sword while he laid down the dead orc silently and Elzbieta kept an eye on the rest of the orcs.

After a while another one staggered to the back to get some sleep. He crawled down on all fours, grabbed a blanket and pulled at it when it was stuck underneath a fellow orc's shoulder. He grunted and shoved the other. When he didn't stir he pulled him by his arm and let out a surprised grunt when he saw the sliced throat. Before he could call out two paws grabbed his head and twisted it.

The crack satisfied Ulric but the loud squeal coming from an orc who'd stood guard between the slave cages didn't.

The orcs at the fire sprung up on their feet and faced the two women jumping out of the shadows with swords at once. Ulric rushed at the guard and jumped out of the way from a slash of his sword, and spun around to hit him with his spiked fist. The orc cried out from the pain in his ripped face but was silenced quickly by another hit to his throat.

Iphigenia evaded the counter attack from the orc and slipped nimbly around him. He cried out at the deep cuts in his side and she ended it with a stab through the back.

Elzbieta deflected the blow from her opponent with her left arm and hew down into his neck. The orc gargled a grunt, dropped to its knees, and fell forward onto the ground.

Ulric walked up to them. 'You girls all right?'

They nodded and stepped towards the cages where all the slaves had awoken to witness the unexpected fight. Elzbieta lifted the iron lock that held the door with a chain. 'Damn. We need to find the key.'

Ulric touched the thick poles of the cage while the slaves inside reeled back. 'Don't tell me you can't cut through this.'

She huffed. 'Of course I can!' she said and turned to the slaves inside. 'Stand back!'

She spun her sword and chopped at the pole in one corner while Ulric picked up an orc sword and hacked at another cage. Iphigenia meanwhile cut at the binding ropes of a third cage.

The slaves cried and laughed at their sudden freedom and thanked the three profusely. An older elf woman hugged Ulric and others who hesitated at first at the sight of a bloodwolf followed. The old man who they'd seen before shook Elzbieta's hand. 'Thank you! Thank you all! You did what I could not!' He gestured at the people. 'I tried to save them when I stumbled across this camp and foolishly believed I could on my own. I should have known better.'
