Angrily, I splash water at him and swim away. I can’t deal with this right now. I have to go see what those people are here for. Before I get too far, something pulls me by the back of my head. Fingers snarl through my roots and—before I know it—I’m lifted off the water and flung toward the bank.
With a dull thud, I land over the shrubs. I can’t do anything but just let out a dignified huff, my anger shrill like a teapot about to burst.
“Don’t you fuckin—” My mouth slams close.
He is changing. What used to be tattoos wrapped around his body emerge, moving like mobile black keloid scars. I feel sick to my stomach as I see some gather around his—I look away before I start hyperventilating. Out of sight, out of mind, right?
“Really, Xiaoyu? You know damn well this cock will haunt your nightmares.”
The sound of his skin remolding itself is like mixing thick bread batter. Wet, thick, stiff. Shivering, I’m startled how much my body reacts to this. I’m horrified, trembling, but I’m so embarrassed to say…
“Petrified and aroused. Just the way I like you.”He’s too close for comfort. His long, violet serpentine tongue licks my hip up to the tip of my breast.“You do not know what it’s like to starve for you, my sweet dreamer.”
I never avert my gaze from him. I don’t fold, I don’t break.
“Don’t you fucking touch me.” I snarl, finally finding my voice.
His eyes flick down, gaze landing on his gift around my neck.
“I see you like my gift. But I don’t think you know what it is.”
Swallowing thickly, I squeeze my eyes shut as he takes the little bulb from me. The Void stands over me. He retains a humanoid body, tall, shredded with those veiny scars moving all over his form. Eyes glow red in fury and something else. The blasphemous tongue swipes over the rows of sharp teeth as he falls forward, roughly flipping me over so I’m on my hands and knees.
“This is the tooth that snapped when I ate you out, my sweet. Tonight, you take this up your—”his fingers sweep over my back hole.“—ass. So you’ll get used to me slowly. After that, you’ll take the bigger tooth, the one you ripped out of me in the forest.”
I kick, but he takes hold of my ankles, pulling me closer until I feelit. Unlike his cold touch, his cock is hot. Fuck. Cock or cocks? Oh, my god. I don’t want anything up my butt—much less several things! I need to protest, but the only thing that comes out of my mouth is a whimper.
“Do you want to see how soaked you are for this monster, Xiaoyu?”
My sight is immediately ripped from me as I groan. It takes a few moments for me to understand what I’m seeing.
“You’re looking through my eyes. See how much my serpents want you.”
A dance of grotesquerie—that’s what I see—as the aptly-named snakes unfurl from its thick, long phosphorescent center. Unable to tell fear and pleasure apart, my head falls back as he swipes his carved teeth over the gleaming cock. It oozes thick, violet liquid. I remember clearly what it is. It’s his cum.
“You may have sliced my other cock off, but this one’s a hydra, my sweet. You cut it, more heads will grow. More fun for me.”
I’m frozen, hypnotized at the sight of him easing the plug up my ass. It hurts. There’s no other way to describe it. I would have stopped him if not for his encouragement.
“Look at yourself, sweet girl. So welcoming, so fucking beautiful.”His voice is smoke in my head. Everytime I grasp at him, he slips through my fingers.“I know you don’t like looking at yourself, but that changes tonight.”
I make a choking sound as he slips it fully in. Tears spring to my eyes. I feel full, almost uncomfortably so. The Void strokes my ass.
“I found the gemstone for you. I knew you were going to like it. You always loved things that glowed in the dark, sweet girl.”
I can’t process anything as he slides his wet cock over my pussy. I know he’s not fucking me tonight.
“Not now, sweet girl. We will fuck you from the inside out, but I have a fucking Sarkany to kill.”
Datu
I can certainly not be wrong about the Sarkany—the dragon, as my sweet dreamer would put it. Their kind were rabid, always half-insane with the need to mate. Breed. Fuck. This one seemed leashed. Not well-behaved, but I sense a palpable, measured menace as he exhales smoke from his nose, shooting daggers at me.
We’ve learned they flew in the females who went missing trekking to the east village with a few other Sarkany. For some reason, they had stumbled upon a portal that sent them straight to another island. IknowI have closed all portals.
I grit my teeth, loathing the feeling of strangers in my land. They are like nits and lice I can’t get rid of.
The Sarkany’s human form is shorter than the towering Void, so when Xiaoyu and I turn around the corner, the Sarkany covers his woman’s eyes. She giggles, and I’m unsure why.
