17

I woke up the next morning with the two sisters still rolled up in my wings, Scarlett still fast asleep but Selene was wide awake and staring at me. We smiled at each other but stayed silent for fear of waking Scarlett. Selene snuggled closer into my side and reached a hand out of my wing to slowly runs it over my abs. As she did, I slowly lifted my tail up to her he face to push the hair out of her eyes. For a long time, we simply laid there staring into each others eyes, until Scarlett began to wake up; snapping us out of our little 'moment'.

Once everyone was up and awake, I went over the 'plan' for the day. Though calling it a 'plan' might have been a bit generous. "So, we are going to walk up to the camp in human form and see if we can get an idea of what this Queen looks like. If Selene thinks she is attractive enough to have fun with, then we'll work with her. If, however, she's nothing special, then I guess I'll set about preparing a feast for the two of you." Hearing this, Selene clapped her hands together happily, while Scarlett just rolled her eyes at the two of us.

It took about an hour for us to reach the outskirts of the bandit camp on foot; but, true to plan, I walked up to the camp entrance holding Selene's hand with Scarlett standing to my left and asked if we might speak to the Queen. The guards stared at us before starting to laugh. Then, suddenly, one reached out to grab Scarlett; with a disgusting sneer of rotten teeth he said, "We got no use for you or your used goods, but I think we could have fun with this one." I registered in my mind that Selene was starting to tense up; but, before anyone could react, my dagger was already out and dripping with blood. The guard, seeing the weapon, reached for his own, then again. On the third try with no weapon drawn, he looked down in shock to realize that the hand he was trying to use was now twitching on the floor. The other guards reacted quickly and encircled us, not sure if they should attack.

In a calm voice, I said "I didn't come looking for a fight, but these two are mine. If anyone tries to hurt them or even touch them without permission, I will kill you without hesitation. Now, why don't you go and announce to your Queen we have arrived."

One guard broke off to help the guard with his missing hand, a third (eager to get away) ran to deliver my message, while the rest merely stood around us. With the pause, Selene turned to me and said, "You are so damn HOT when you talk about us so protectively like that, now come here." With that, the two of us began to passionately make out in full view of everyone while we waited. Lost in sensation, I couldn't help but reach down and roughly grope her ass, half forgetting about all of the guards around us and half wanting to make them jealous.

Some minutes later, we heard someone clear their throat; causing us to break off our taunting show of affection and look their way. Standing above us, atop the wall, was a woman that had to be the one that they called the "Barbarian Queen". She was every bit Six feet tall plus some change and all of it was pure muscle. Her breasts were enormous and seemed to spurn the concept of gravity as they had no sag to them from what I could tell. While what I could see of her legs looked like the could break open a coconut, or any unfortunate item that earned her wrath and wound up between them, if she squeezed hard enough.

I looked to Selene for direction to find her grinning ear to ear; obviously pleased with what she was seeing. I then turned back towards the queen with a bow and said, "Ma'am, we're traveling mercenaries and wish to offer our help to you with your conquests."

She only raised an eyebrow in reaction to my statement, so I continued, "My wife and her sister here are incredibly skilled fighters, and we would be eternally grateful if you would let us work directly underneath you."

Some of the guards immediately started laughing, either at my request for such an immediately high posting or at my poorly disguised innuendo; I even heard one say, "They truly think they can come in with nothing to their name and be her direct subordinates?" All this time, the Queen had remained silent. Clearly she wasn't as dumb as her guards, so I simply waited for her to speak.

"If you truly believe that you three are the best," she said at last, "... and want to work 'under' me, there will be a test you mist pass. Each of you three will fight against three captured warriors from towns we have already conquered. If they kill you, they will be free to go. If you kill them... then we will talk."

As soon as I nodded my head in agreement, we were ushered into what barely looked like an arena, though calling it 'makeshift' would be quite generous. I had hoped that we would be fighting as a group, but, apparently, they wanted us to go one by one and I was going to be last. Annoyed that I wasn't even be able to watch, I listened to the roar of the hastily assembled crowd as the event started.

I shut my eyes and tried to make out what was happening by the sounds I heard. Selene went first, and it sounded as if she was facing some giant brute when, suddenly, the crowd went silent. A few moments later, Selene came skipping back to the holding area the three of us were being held in and happily sat down on my lap. Pretty much the same thing happened with Scarlett, and she was back with us before I had finished asking her what her opponent looked like.

Finally, much more quickly than I imagine anyone expected, my turn came. Walking into the arena I could see and hear that the crowd was stunned at what it had witnessed. I quickly spotted the queen and gave her a quick bow before my opponent was introduced. Apparently he was an assassin and had been the personal bodyguard to someone famous; so he was the real deal. A horn sounded, signaling the fight was starting and the crowd roared, eagerly awaiting the assassin's skills and expecting a decent fight at last. I admit, he was very impressive. He would slowly circled me, then would dart in quickly, trying to hit vital spots, then immediately duck out of my reach again. Despite this, if I wasn't able to avoid or deflect his blows, my healing factor gave it the impression that he wasn't hitting anything vital. Realizing it wasn't working, he tried to taunt me, "You know, the Queen said that 'not only will I get my freedom when I kill you, but I'm also going to fuck those two bitches you brought with you. Let me tell you, I'm going to..." at this, his jaw went slack and his eyes went wide as a wound, long and deep, suddenly opened up across his throat.

Now standing over the assassin, who was on the ground slowly accepting the fact he as bleeding to ****, I turned to the crowd and yelled, "Let this be a lesson to all of you dregs. Pathetic as he seemed, this man was a master assassin; yet he was no problem for me. I was gonna let him die quick, until he mentioned my girls. If any of you even look at the two I am with the wrong way, hell, if you even try to blow them a kiss with chapped lips, I will kill you. Not only that, but I'll make it so painful as to make THIS," to emphasize my point I stepped on my dead opponents chest, causing blood to squirt out of the hole in his neck and a few feet into the air, "... look like a mercy." I then turned back to the queen, gave a deep bow, and headed back to where the sisters were waiting.

As soon as I returned to the holding area, Selene was all over me. She LITERALLY tackled me to the floor and started to rub her body on mine while whispering in my ear, "GODS, I get so FUCKING hot when you talk like that, all possessive and dominant. I think I almost came when you let all those men know you will kill them over us."

I grabbed the ass that I loved so much with both hands and growled in her ear, "You think I'm going to let any of those lowly bandits put a hand on my beautiful Wife?"

Before we could continue, and I'm certain we would have gone all the way if left alone, Scarlett kicked my leg to get my attention then pointed out a guard who had entered and nervously said, "The Queen would like to speak to you three. Um, Privately"
