Decline Emeralds Offer

“I appreciate the offer but I will have to pass. I have things I need to do while there is still daylight.” I shook my head. Not that I didn't want to fuck any of them. Hell maybe even the Madam herself if I had the chance. “Maybe Another time.”

“Pity all work and no play but I understand. You are always welcome to come back any time. My offer still stands.” She smiled slyly.

“Thank you my lady.” I replied. I could always come back later. I took her hand and kissed it before departing and hit the road. On my way to hunters rest I stopped when I saw Daisy leaving her house with a basket in hand.

“Morning Daisy.” I smiled.

“Hello. What are you doing out this way?” She smiled up at me as I got off my horse.

“Thought I would stop by on my way to Hunter's Rest. See if you two needed anything.”

“Well isn't that sweet of you. I was just heading that way myself.” She replied.

“The Imp hasn't come back has she?” I inquired.

“No thankfully.” Daisy shook her head.

“Just checking.”

“While you are here may I ask you something? You plan on making this trip every day?”

“Possibly. Not every day mind you but maybe several days a week.” I shrugged. It would take me awhile to learn the kingwoods in and out like the woods back home.

“Astrid offered me a job in the evenings. I would stay there at night and come back here in the mornings.” Daisy smiled.

“You want me to accompany you?”

“Yes. Only on days you plan to go this way.” She nodded.

“I don't see a problem with that.”

“Thank you.” She smiled and gave me a kiss on the cheek as her big tits brushed up against me.

“So I take it you will be serving?” I smiled remembering what Astrid had said about big tits, Daisy was over qualified if anything.

“Yes. Mom wasn't to thrilled with me taking the job. The thought of men hitting on me and all but I am an adult now and can't spend the rest of my life working on a farm.” She gave a little shrug.

“I will look out for you while I am staying there.”

“Thank you.” She wrapped her arm in mind as we walked. “You are very kind person.”

“Who knows you might meet a nice Minotaur gentleman in the city.”

“I am in no hurry to get married quit yet.” She laughed. “One day. It's a shame you aren't a minotaur but then minotaurs can breed with humans or cows as well as our own.”

“Really?”

“Yes. Though I have no interest in bulls. Legend says we were created with the use of magic from such a union though how true it is I don't know. My mothers family has breed with humans in the past though still have some cow like features. Dad is a pure breed minotaur and looks more like a bull. Of course dad would loose it if I didn't marry a minotaur.” She laughed.

“I see.” I nodded.

“So why are you going to Hunters Rest?”

“There is a small tavern out that way we sell to on occasion.” She held up her basket.

“Didn't want to go work there? It's closer.”

“No. It's more of a stop for the night kind of place. In a few weeks it gets about as packed as it is all year because of the king goes out hunting.”

“He stays at the inn? I heard he has a cabin.”

“No, he and his family stay at the cabin but you know royals. They bring servants. Other royals come along to curry favor and they bring servants.” She shrugged.

“Got you.”

“Truthfully it is the highlight of the season out this way and has been done for so long that the woods became known as the Kingswood.”

“I bet. Do you want a ride. We would get there faster. I mean you can ride side saddle since you are in a dress.” I shrugged. I wasn't in a hurry per say but I wanted to get there none the less.

“Okay. I would like that. Thank you.” She nodded. I tied on her basket and checked to make sure there was nothing fragile. I climbed on first and then offered my hand.

“Put your right foot in the stirrup.” I said looking down she did that and took my hand and I pulled her up. Once she was up she grabbed onto me and held tight. Her large breast pressing against my back. I could feel them bounce and jiggle as I picked up the pace a little but keeping the horse at a trot.

“When is Brutus suppose to be back?” I asked. I wondered what her dad even looked like truthfully.

“Tomorrow. He went to bring in some new sheep. The winter what it was we went through more then usual before breeding season.”

“Yeah it did get a little cold. Wait. You don't eat them do you?” I thought to myself.

“Heavens no. We don't eat meat.”

“That's what I thought.”

“We keep them for their wool. Father plants oats and other foods for us but we sell or trade the sheep during the winter if our food stock starts running low or if the sheep is getting old.. This year though father traded some of our sheep to other farmers to help them make it through the long winter. Fresh meat is worth a lot in the winter. Enough that he was able to buy some new farm land for us to grow more this year.”

“Smart. I actually make good money selling extra meat from hunting during the winter. Not the most ideal time to do it.” I shook my head. We talked for a bit before rounding a large hill.

“Looks like trouble ahead.” I said as I saw a wagon that had apparently lost a wheel. Two satyrs were trying to gather up dozens of wooden cask that had spilled out onto the road. I stopped and got off then helped Daisy off as well.

“Hey Gypsy.” Daisy smiled.

“Hey Daisy. See you got a new friend.” Gypsy came over. She was a little taller then a gnome but shorter then an elf. “Ain't you cute.” Gypsy smiled up at me.

“My lady.” I smiled and took her hand kissing it. Much like Daisy one would guess she was human from far away only having small horns, long ears, and deep brown child like eyes. “And nice. I like this one.”

“Behave.” Daisy laughed.

“What is the fun in that?” Gypsy shook her head.

“Problems with your wagon?” I said tying the horse to a nearby fence post.

“No. I thought I see if it could work on three wheels.” A slightly larger male Satyr said as he stacked barrels beside the road to get them out out the way.

“Hey, I am just trying to help.” I replied.

“Don't mind my brother, he has had a stick stuck up his ass since birth, sadly nothing the doctors could do.” Daisy gave her brother a look.

“Wine?” I said catching the smell.

“Yes. Seasoned all winter long. Our very first batch. Best you ever had. I...” The Male Satyr said.

“We.” Daisy cut him off.

“...were going to bring it to the tavern to try and sell it before the nobles show up. Now I am stuck here and the closest place to get the wheel fixed is the place I want to go. Now I have to go all the way there. Leave her guarding the wine. Hope she doesn't drink half of it...”

“No promises.” Gypsy smiled.

“...then come back here and fix the wheel by which point it will be dark. I swear some demon has cursed me.”

“He always like this?” I looked at Gypsy.

“Yes.”

“You know you might be able to get there on three wheels.”

“I like to see that. Hell I even give you a cask if it was possible but unless you know magic it ain't happening.” The grumpy Satyr said.

“You just need a big enough counter weight.” I walked around and got up onto the wagon and the whole wagon stood back up under my weight. “Just need to stack some of the load closer to the front. Push that busted barrel under the back and I will help you.” The Saytr pushed the barrel under under and we got to work. I tied my horse to the side and road on the wagon along with Daisy for added weight.

“So how do you two know each other?” Gypsy looked back at us.

“He is the one who drove off the Imp.” Daisy replied.

“Oh. So he is good at dealing with horny women. Good to know.” Gypsy licked her lips. We made it to Hunters Rest eventually though the morning was spent.

“Well looks like you made it.” Gypsy said hopping off.

“You did say they can fix the wheel here.”

“Yes. Their is a carpenter in town.” The male Saytr said at he put the barrel back under the cart where the wheel had broken off.

“Very well. I will leave you two to it. You work tonight?” I looked at Daisy.

“Yes.” She smiled and nodded.

“Good. I will come pick you up.” I replied.

“Okay. Thank you.”

“Later handsome. Thanks for the help” Gypsy smiled.

“No problem, Later Gypsy.” I smiled. I was just about to leave the town when I noticed an archery shop.

“Hello. How can I help you.” An Auburn haired female elf said from behind the counter.

“I need bow string.” I replied. I had used most of my string binding the Imp.

“Anything else?” She said as she grabbed some and set it one the counter. “We have anything you might need for hunting.

“No that should do it.” I smiled.

“You make those arrows yourself?” She asked.

“Yes.” I replied.

“May I?” She held out her hand. I drew one and handed it over.

“Waterfowl. Keeps the fletching dry. Cleaver. Diffidently not from the city. Only thing I would add is some red dye.” She said handing it back.

“Red?”

“Makes the arrows easier to find when you miss. It's what I use personally.” She smiled and sat some on the counter..

“Very well. Never knew an elf to be such a cunning shop keep.” I said grabbing my coin purse from my bag.

“Half elf.” She grinned.

“You run this shop by yourself?”

“No. Me and my family. Plus me and dad work as a hunting guide whenever town folk get the urge to play hunter. We also serve as the town butcher.” She smiled. “You need a guide? Me or dad could show you around.”

“No. I think I can manage but thanks for the offer.” I grinned. It seemed they had cornered the market on game out this way.

“If you change your mind or ever need anything else you know where to find us and watch out for animal traps while your in the woods. A lot of the town folk use them. My names Artemis.”

“Thank you Artemis.” I smiled and went on my way.

I mounted my horse and road into the woods. I didn't get far before I found out what she meant. The ground wasn't exactly ideal for horse riding but I managed. Nothing else it was a peaceful stroll through the woods. I came across a small stream along the way. Despite the fact that it was flowing pretty quickly it was shallow enough to cross. I smiled as I came out of the forest to see I had gone up a lot higher then I had thought as I looked out onto a small valley below that ran along a row of forest covered hills to one side and low lying hills on the other. I was sure if I kept following the river it probably lead south toward the ocean.

It took me another hour before I finally found the lake I had seen on the map. I wasn't disappointed in the least. I found plenty off geese and bagged several. I gathered some cane reeds to make arrows out of which where great for hunting do to their light weight and the birds would give me plenty of feathers for the fletching. Next I went fairy cocoon hunting. I had a little trouble finding any at first till I figured out they were very well hidden so i knew to check every bush or tree hollow. I didn't find a single fairy though. Truthfully these cocoons where about as close as I had ever come to seeing any by at least I knew they were real now. I had to give up after I had filled up the sack I had kept the Imp in the day before. I tied it shut and went back to my horse who was tied up by the lakes edge so it could drink from the lake and feed on the grass. After tying on the ducks I mounted back up and headed back north deciding to stick close to the river this time to find my way back. As small as the town was I could easily miss it. This area of forest reminded me so much of home minus the elevation. Their was plenty of things to hunt. I saw a few deer drinking from a stream. Several birds. Even a rabbit or two scurrying away from me.

Suddenly I heard a scream from the river. I road hard pushing my horse as fast as she would go and jumped off running to the edge of the woods and stopped as I reached a steep incline that I almost went plummeting off of. I saw the source of the screaming. Four women bathing in the river below and splashing water at one another.

I took a step back as I looked down on them below. It took me a second to realize I knew them. Though I wasn't looking at their faces at first. One was the Auburn haired woman from the fletchers shop. She looked even better without her clothes on and that was saying something. Nice full tits that bounced as she ran, an athletic figure and a tight tone ass. I would guess she was half human from her more curvy figure. The girl who was splashing her had to be a trow as they where commonly called while some called them dark elves. I had never seen a trow before but I was certain she was one because of her light grey skin. I didn't know her but from what I saw I kind of wanted to. Long silky ashen hair. A slender yet attractive figure. Small firm breast and pert nipples that I swore you could poke an eye out on. A small yet tight ass and not a lick of pussy hair to be seen. Least not from here. No clue who she was but she was one good looking Trow i'd like to fuck. I saw the Saytr Gypsy splashing through the water as she ran. She was the shortest of the girls with a nice petite body. Small breast that where still more then big enough to suck on and raised areolas with small nipples. She was wider in the hips and had a nice ass with a little sheep's tail though I didn't see fur anywhere else. The forth had her back to me as she stood under a small waterfall with her back to me though I recognized the voluptuous figure as Daisy's. She had a lovely large round ass. As she stepped out of the falls and toward the girls she rung out her hair. My eyes ran down over her body. She had an thick curvy figure with two of the largest tits I had ever seen yet where still fairly firm for there size. Long thick nipples sticking out as if begging to be sucked on and damn did I ever want to.

I shook my head and turned away heading back toward my horse. My conscience getting the better of me. Not that I could get that image out of my head now even if I wanted to. Just as I was about to get back on I heard a scream. A real scream followed by a roar. A bears roar. I ran back to the edge and saw the girls running. Daisy holding her tits as she tried to contain them as they bounced though with little success. I saw the bear come around the bend below me. Artemis ran to her clothes at the shore and drew a large knife pointing it at the beast as the others ran past her as the bear gave chase.
