“You know I am always happy to be here for you whenever you need.” Noah said softly “you already have me there is no need for you to ask.”

______________

“Look! She is eating.” Slate said excitedly “Do you like it Opal ?”

Seth smiled and then brought his lips to Noah’s once more, tasting his diamond in a deeply passionate kiss while his hands wandered over the Mage’s body.

— — — —

I’m going to speed things up with Slate and Opal.

Time passed and the two children grew close, with Opal aging rapidly until she had the appearance of a small majestic bird with long tail feathers and wings, a starry night sky shifting subtly over her form. At her chest and neck it faded into a stark white contrast, but her head was a pure inky black and her eyes were unchanged. She could fly in short burst and when she opened her wings, there were still bits of soft gray downy feathers. Seth had taken it upon himself with the help of Slate to construct a perch for her on the parapets just above Slate’s room in the looming palace.

Noah was a plaything in the Dragons affection his body long knew just how to move to be in the perfect position when Seth caressed him.

______

“How are you doing today Opal?” Slate asked as he returned to his room from some exercise of some physical nature as he wiped some sweat from his forehead.

His hands completely freed the Awakened of his clothing, his lips eventually parting from Noah’s skin, “How long has it been since I’ve worshipped you as you so deserve?” His breath was hot and heavy as he gazed at the Mage.

— — — — —

Opal cooed and glided gently over to him. She landed almost delicately on her clawed feet and pranced daintily around him, nuzzling his hands with her head.

— — — — —

Queen Zoeva summoned her advisors to her throne with Alexos already waiting. He sighed as his meeting with the Queen had gone poorly at the news, but it was expected. The messenger went to retrieve Nyer as he was the only other one to be trusted.

“You are free to admire your diamond as you wish my dragon, I am a prize in your treasure.” Noah said with a blush his body bare before the dragon “perhaps I have not pleased you either  in some time I am sorry for making you wait.”

—————

“How was your day Opal ?” Slate said with a smile “I hope I have not kept you waiting to long. I was out seeing some fields today and see some of the kingdoms workers. I hope I put a smile on their face.”

————

Nyer never missed a summons he was a master of punctuality and never missed a beet when it came to his Queen and his teacher. He was dressed in his finest and carried his typical mild manned smile as he appeared in the room.

Seth smiled, “It was through nothing of your fault. I think maybe time just slipped from my mind... But we have eternity to make it up...” The dragon kissed down Noah’s body until reaching his first goal. He took Noah between his lips and while one hand gently gripped the Awakened’s backside and he set to work.

— — — — —

The exotic bird cooed again and tilted her head forward like she was nodding. Then she circled him again before nuzzling his hand again.

— — — — —

“Nyer..” Zoeva smiled at her easily most beloved advisor despite Alexos’ far greater span of time with her, “Thank you for coming on such short notice, but we have an issue that I would like your input on.” She gestured to Alexos who stood next to Nyer.

He looked at his protege with a solemn expression, “It appears that we may need to renegotiate a gift for the Great Dragon as our Phoenix children are not repopulating. In fact, they have been sick and dying and the prospects of our last female are growing worse. We have two males that are in decent health for the time, but without the True Phoenix around, we have no way to ensure their continued existence unless they procreate themselves.”

Noah let out an unrestrained groan at the sensual treatment his hands doing little more then one grabbing the sheet of the bed the other running trough Seth’s hair even as his hips found some life of their own.

_______

Slate was quick to caress his friend as he came to see her pulling a book off of one of his shelves and darting quickly for a plate of prepared treats. “Want me to read to you Opal ?” He asked laying the plate on a place beside him on the bed.

_______

“How inclined will the dragon be to return what we gifted him ?” Nyer spoke in an ever sensual way with his Queen, respectful but with an air of heat to it. “Obviously we must do something but what can we do for the Dragon.” Nyer pondered

Seth continued his decadent treatment of his Diamond, his fingers growing more adventurous on the Mage’s backside.

— — — — —

Opal excitedly skidded over to follow him, fluttering her wings as she couldn’t decide on which side of Slate’s to settled on.

— — — — —

“That’s part of the problem.” Zoeva pondered as she started down the steps to level with the advisors, “Not only do we need to receive invitation to the inner Abyssal Mirror, but then we need to ask for the Phoenix he has back and offer him something else. It has been only a handful of time since then...” she sighed as she reached the bottom step, “Surely we have other treasures that our kingdom can easily part with of equal or greater value?”

Alexios scratched his chin with one hand as his eight tentacle legs adjusted slightly beneath his muscular form, “Indeed.. I suppose if you two want to brainstorm some ideas, I can go to the archives and obtain some assistance and a list of the treasury items.”

“Seth!” Noah cried out with delight squirming against sensual affection “you cannot tease me like this ...”

———

“Come here Opal.” Slate said gesturing for her to perch on his lap.

———

“What makes us so sure that we will be able to make a Dragon give up a pice of his treasure we may have to consider many possibilities.” Nyer mused.

Seth suddenly withdrew his lips and used both hands to lift Noah’s hips and brought his tongue to the Mage’s backside entrance.

— — — — —

Opal hesitantly set one foot on his leg trying not to scratch him before getting the other and settling onto his leg. She nuzzled her head against his shoulder before using her beak to flip the cover of the book open.

— — — — —

“That is.. Dragons are notorious for not wanting to give up anything that is theirs.” Zoeva commented with a sigh, “If the other remnants of mythical creatures are based off of him, then it could be an impossible task before us... But we need to try.”

Alexios shrugged, “Then we make our effort. Nyer, I think perhaps you could take our Queen to settle down. Perhaps a drink and some relaxation. I shall see what riches we might offer.”

“That spot ... it feels so good when you do that ... but please let me do something for you.” Noah groaned his eyes rolled with delight.

———

“Are you comfortable Opal ?” He asked opening a page in the book likely where they would have last left off. “One of these days we should go to the library I am sure they have more books for us there.” He mused.

______

“My lady if you would.” Nyer offered his hand with a submissive nod of his head “I have been working on a new beverage I have been dying for you to try made from exotic fruit harvested in the Hedge.”

Seth increased the intensity of his treatment, and slyly brought one hand close, his fingers intermittently teasing Noah’s entrance between laps of the tongue.

— — — — —

Opal tilted her head in question before ruffling her feathers so she looked almost fluffy, but it was only her display of comfort as birds tend to do.

— — — — —

Zoeva took Nyer’s hand as Alexios left to tend to his duties, a grin pulling at his lips. He had trained and shaped the courtesan well to serve the Queen.

“I shall try and press this stress from my mind until we know what we can offer in exchange.” Zoeva spoke quietly to Nyer, “I just cannot believe how wrong this has all gone.”

Noah’s body jutted about in greedy delight as he quivered failing at trying to keep himself silent.

———

With an idea that it was fair to continue Slate went on to read one of the numerous story books that lingered in his room.

———

“Banish the though my Queen, I am sure we will find an amicable resolution.” Nyer said leading the Queen to an area where he could properly prepare the promised beverage. “Not to sound crass or cruel but why is there such an interest held in these individuals?”

Seth grinned as he gently released Noah’s hips and climbed up his body, kissing him feverishly before bringing one arm around the Awakened’s waist and lifted him, the Dragon’s member rubbing against Noah’s soft skin, “How long I’ve yearned to hear you moan again.”

— — — — —

Opal listened, eventually nuzzling her head to rest against Slate’s neck as she slowly grew contented and drifted to sleep.

— — — — —

“Seth is the original Dragon and all tales of such creatures and those similar give him power. On top of that he is one of the original pantheon of the Faerie realms, so it was quite an honor and shock to be rescued by him...” Zoeva watched Nyer, unable to hold back a smile at him, “As you and Alexios know, I am not exactly the great power that commands the same potency of magic as a True Gentry might, but even if I was, I could never best one of the pantheon. But because I cannot wield the magic to my full whimsy, it means that I cannot shape new Moondove Phoenix hatchlings. They were a rare breed to begin with and are greatly sought after by other Fae because they are an unusual embodiment of immortality in the form of rebirth. For a Changeling to come into any form of immortality is a marvel, but without the mother Phoenix, no one is sure how she crafted her chosen with such traits, but we’re sure that they need to reach a certain age in each birth cycle in order to unlock their eternities. But if there’s more, then only the mother knows those secrets. We need to keep their population alive or we become vulnerable again.”

Noah could hardly mutter a word beyond his desperation to feel the sensation of his Dragons desires. “Please tease me no longer.”

———

Slate did his best to stay still allowing Opal time for rest as he closed the book saving the space where they had left off.

———

“Well I never thought to over power him certainly I have no desire for violance but what if we were clever.” Nyer proposed handing his Queen a cocktail while he held his own.

Seth retook the Awakened’s lips and slowly pushed into his slick backside entrance with a groan.

— — — — —

Nearly an hour later, Opal awoke from her sleep with a start. She backpedaled from Slate and fell back, spreading her wings in such a way to make herself appear much larger than she was as she looked around with a fierce call, a sound much different than her cooing and mellow chirps.

— — — — —

Zoeva took the peculiar drink from Nuer with a nod as a thank you, “And what exactly are you thinking? We need to retrieve the Phoenix we gave them.”

Noah cried out in delight muffled only by the Dragons affection as his body greedily tightend around the dragon.

———

“What’s wrong Opal?” Slate asked waking from his own calm his own eyes looking around for what could have been the provocation.

———

“Well to put it bluntly my Queen, if we have nothing of value to trade with the dragon we need to be creative.” He took a sip of the drink. “The Phoenix is a Changeling, why not have her do like others have and run for the other world and once she is there we convince her to return with us.”

Seth broke the kiss, one hand gripping Noah’s hip and the other snaking around beneath his back, “I missed having you.” He began he moved his own hips at a slow steady pace.

— — — — —

She moved back, taking a showy stance, a nightsky seeming to ripple over her body in a way that had never happened before.  She let out another call before moving with purpose toward the window and peering outside.

— — — — —

Zoeva was quiet a long moment after taking a sip of the drink. “So... you believe that if we pay them a visit with nothing of equal value, you might be able to convince her?”

“I belong to only you.” Noah tried to keep composed but Seth know how to illicit the most out of every thrust.

———

Slate followed her to the window “What has gotten into you today ?”

———

“If she is lucid enough we convince her to run to the other world past the Hedge and maybe after that we talk her into coming back with us.” Nyer suggested

Seth altered his affections between Noah’s lips and neck, his pace growing in speed.

— — — — —

Opal bristled, her eyes scanning the outside world. She glanced at Slate before looking back to the outside, obviously perturbed by something.

— — — — —

“Yes... that would be our best chance perhaps even with an equal offer.” The Queen nodded, “Maybe we just go to pay a visit to the Dragon then..”

“Don’t stop” Noah pleaded his delight clear from his hands running along the Dragons back.

———

“Opal what do you see?” Slate said now with a defiant concern.

———

“My place is only to offer you my advice my Queen.” Nyer said with a confident smile.

“We belong to each other!” Seth grunted between thrusts as his potency grew. His hips grinded to Noah’s body, aiming to make the Awakened melt with delight.

— — — — —

She screeched and hopped onto the sill, spreading her wings with an impressive wingspan. The nightsky speckled with stars drifted over her feathered form as she seemed to be evolving right before Slate’s eyes.

— — — — —

“I will send for Alexios and we will go to visit the Dragon.” Zoeva made up her mind, “I think perhaps you might be best to speak to Sini and entice her to the mortal world.”

Beads of pent lust dripped from Noah his voice was a cacophony of delights. His lips only silenced by pressing hard against the Dragons skin, a derived trick he picked up as the lovers moved from their lonely train cars to the castle.

———

“Amazing ...” Slate looked on almost dumbfounded by what he saw “What do you see ?” He pondered strugleing to take his eyes away from what he saw.

———

“As you wish my Queen.” Nyer spoke quite co tent with earning his queens favor, he knew the importance of being useful and truly the only thing he feared was falling from usefulness.

He couldn’t help but to smile between his lustful breathing at the gesture. He held Noah close to him as his hips moved with erratic purpose. “Noah..!” Seth groaned, “You’re squeezing so tightly!”

— — — — —

Opal took off from the ledge, arcing high with her wings opened to their fullest. Behind her streaked silvery speckled stardust as she flew to circle back toward the castle.

— — — — —

As soon as Alexios joined them, Queen Zoeva informed him of Nyer’s clever scheme. As it turned out, the vaults held no treasure to measure to the worth of the Phoenix, but Alexios had brought something small as a welcoming gift. After some relays, their trip was planned and a few days later they made headway for the Abyssal Mirror.

As a herald lead the Queen’s entourage to the palace, Zoeva looked up from the open top carriage and saw the Phoenix take flight. ‘It seems as though she’s grown strong here..”

It was to much for Noah to restrain his body as a spurt of lust shot from him provoked only by the rytham of Seth’s claim. The mage did what he could to keep him self silent as futile as it was.

———

“Good job Opal.” Slate spoke encouragingly.

———

“So it would seem.” Nyer observed “shall we still carry through on our plan?”
