Into the Cave

In comparison the quiet of the forest you hear subtle sounds coming from the cave. Water dripping further into the cave, some scraping and screeching you have to focus to hear, but as you look to the ceilings you see nothing. Ixy told you the forest would be quiet until it accepted you, so does that mean the forest doesn't have any jurisdiction over the cave or are you overthinking things? You feel you may be less safe in this cave if it serves as its own entity within the forest, but you know turning back would get you sent here again.

You are pulled from your thoughts by a certain sword clearly unnerved and annoyed, "Walk any slower and it'll be just as dark outside as inside by the time you're done."

"Sigh, you know I expected you take being wrong with a bit more class," you sigh.

"I can take it just fine, but if we have to be in here let's be quicker about it," grumbles Baroqua.

As silent as you want to be about it, you have no idea how deep this cave is, what is in hear and if something is in here it may already know its not alone. You pick up the pace somewhat, hugging the cave as you try to navigate the singular tunnel. As fascinating as it would be to explore the ecological ecosystem inside of an otherworldly cave, you are somewhat relieved that the trickling of water has grown stronger and soon you can see the source. Water pools into a lake that must be about twenty feet across. Maybe there is a smaller word for lake that's larger than puddle, but your thoughts are pulled away by the stirring and groaning happening mere feet from the body of water.

She's big, taller than you, you are sure of that. Her skin tanned and her forearms and legs from the knee down covered in dark fur. Her figure is more discus thrower than ballerina, the woman groans and pants on the ground. Remembering that she's bigger and possibly stronger than you and that this world is fight or fuck...or fight and fuck and possibly pillage if not maim, you approach slowly. She sprawled on her back, D cup breasts hardly moving because her breathe is shallow. The dark nipples almost distract you with the slick shine on them. You get a closer look at her face, cherubim shaped, but strong at the same time, short brown hair sticks to her face and her brown eyes are dazed. You continue looking her up and down and notice the fur on her arms and legs also looks wet. Was she swimming in the water? Is this lake poisonous. You notice even the exposed parts of her body have a slick coating.

"S-sooo....hot."

You freeze and clutch the hilt of your sword as the laying figure groans. You wait to see if she's going to start moving, but it seems all the energy she had left were spent on that weak outburst.

"Honey trapped."

You look towards Baroqua, "What was that?"

Baroqua continues, "That's a bear woman. And judging by the way her fur is sticking I'd say she got too friendly with a nearby hive."

You look over the gasping and groaning figure and it does seem that whatever liquid she's covered in is thicker than water. Relaxing a little you ask for more information, "And honey would do this to her?"

"Not the type of honey you'd be used to I'm afraid. Those ladies spend a lot of time and energy making their honey, a wondering bear taking a snack every now and again is the cost of doing business for most hives. Either this girl took too much and they decided to make the loss count or she came across a particular touchy hive."

You fold your arms as you make sense of what you've been told and what you're still unsure about, "So she attacked a hive for a snack, got greedy and they retaliated by covering her from head to toe in honey? How does that help them?"

Baroqua giggles, its a metallic sound that rings like a church bell living it's best life atop a brothel, "That honey is pretty good at storing heat. Warmed blooded or cold blooded, being covered in the stuff is going to send your temperature sky rocketing. Doubly so in direct sunlight."

"Which would explain why she took shelter in the cave," you put together the rest, "I guess she passed out before she got to the lake to wash off."

"That's right, If I had to guess this might be her usual resting spot. It's a good thing we got here after- The fuck are you doing?!" Baroqua screams at you as you begin to remove her from your waist.

"The forest sent us here for a reason," you start as you begin to undress, "I'm guessing it was to keep this girl from loosing her life to sugar."

Baroqua lets out a metallic hum that radiates annoyance, "You know any other adventure would be glad to have the first dungeon's midboss incapacitated. Her fur goes for a lot. Teeth and claws too."

You roll up your pants leg and start stretching, "What's the going rate on mouthy pieces of metal?"

Baroqua chuckles, " I like a green horn with some bite, means you'll last a bit longer. A bit."

"Glad we get along," you respond before looking at the large woman in front of you. You've delayed this long enough, but there isn't exactly a playbook for moving a sleeping predator to water without losing an arm. You'll just have to trust your durability as you crouch to lift her over your shoulder. Usually you'd go for a fireman carry, but you'd prefer she not be in a position to **** you to **** in a small body of water. The first thing that hits you as you get close is a scent of syrupy sweetness and floral notes. The honey. She's truly saturated with the stuff, but her weak breathing through her honey coated mouth gives you a sense of urgency.

With a grunt and groan, she was heavier than she looked. Hoisting her over your shoulder an gripping her thighs firmly so she doesn't unbalance you, you slowly walk over to the cave's body of water. As you do that syrupy sweetness aggresses your nostrils again, even stronger. Your legs quiver as you shake your head.

Baroqua calls out, "You alright, can't be that heavy, right?"

"She's not, just..." you take a deep breath, a mistake as the scent of the honey feels like it warms you from the inside out, "Need to make it to the lake, now."

Your steps are less measured. Some jostling will have to do and your passenger isn't exactly in any condition to review the ride experience. As soon as you step into the water you take a knee, laying her half on the bank and half in the water.

The immediate coolness jolts you're passenger with a growl that has you ready to bolt to your sword, but no sooner do you pull away and spring up out of the water do you see the groaning bear woman start to slip limply further down into the water.

"Shit," you reach for her and using both arms pull her further onto the bank. She definitely isn't in any position to be aggressive. Meaning she also can't wash herself. You resign yourself and commit to the fact that you're about to give spa treatment to someone who might rip your arms off when you're done, but the forest has your best interests at heart right?

...

You wait to hear a melodic wind or chime, but the lack of feedback only grows more disconcerting. Better to start before you change your mind.

You approach the bear girl from the side, she's laying on her back with her arms splayed, her legs dangling in the water. Starting with what should be easiest you reach for her legs in the water and begin rubbing them. You're sure if you left her to soak long enough the honey would naturally dilute and stop sticking to her, but better not chance her dying of hyperthermia or drowning if you left her like that. You go from the hard soles of her feet to the rather soft fur of her lower legs, scrubbing and rubbing until everything feels clean. You move high and are met with her bare thighs. Strong and muscular, for sure, but not so cut to only be bulging muscle. Her thighs are also softer than you expected. As you rub them, you feel some sweat on your brow, it doesn't feel like you've been at this long and you've chopped log houses worth of firewood without breaking a sweat. Before you can think anymore about it she stirs again and starts to slide down into the water. You reach under her holding her aloft. Her weight isn't as much of an issue as you use the water to buoy her, but this side position isn't making things easier.

As you ponder how to position her again you freeze. Those big brown eyes are open and weak as the gaze is she's staring right at you.

You are half naked, holding a nude woman who could crush your skull with her thighs, don't be weird.

"....hope you don't sleep this light during hibernation." Your humour lands to silence.

"What are you..." she groans, her tongue darts out for a minute to clear the honey covering her mouth and she shivers as she tastes it.

"Helping, you were covered in honey and burning up," you tell her, "Hope you don't mind, but I think you're still too weak to help yourself."

She looks at you, trying to find any fault or subterfuge in your words or eyes, but as she tries to lift herself unto her elbows and fails she sighs and resigns herself to your help, "Sigh, thanks human."

"Duin."

"Nanoqi"

You relax a little, you aren't going to get your eyes clawed out just yet it seems. But back to the task at hand, "You keep slipping into the water. Can you hold yourself up on the bank?"

Nanoqi gives a weak laugh, "Better chance of you throwing me in the water and fishing me out. My arms are completely weak."

"Hmm," you think as you work a solution.

You raise an eyebrow and look over at Nanoqi...

She raises on in return, "What?"

"I can keep you fixed in place if you I put something between you and the water," you respond."

She tilts her head a bit, "Okay, so do that. What did you bring?"

"Myself."

She shrugs her shoulders and hoarsely laughs, "Bashful for someone who's got full control here. Do what you gotta do, bub."

You keep forgetting how laissez faire this world is and that you're the awkward one.

You grip her legs as you manoeuvre to her front and rest her thighs to the sides of your hips, "Back to it then."

She nods as you reach into the water, staring at you as you move your eyes along her thighs.

Reaching down into the water you cup your hands and pool water in your palms. Your hand do little to warm the cool waters, but it should be less brutal trickling it unto her instead of dunking her. As the water falls from your hands to her stomach and run down she coos and exhales more in relief than discomfort.

"Ahhh, feels good," Nanoqi says. Her voice is husky, her coos more like gentle growls. The sound tickles your ears and you feel another wave of heat. Hard to imagine in the cool cave water. You continue the rather intimate washing, scooping up water and watching it fall along the creases of her body, dripping down her abdominals, her chest, down her neck. Those breasts move more now as her breathing has somewhat normalised and her nipples hard, perhaps from the water. You hold back on being distracted by those tanned orbs as you continue to scoop water, bringing it up to her face. Nanoqi closes her eyes as you pour water down her face, her growl sounds pleasant. Maybe you have a future as an animal girl groomer.

"Again."

That's the first time she's voiced an opinion on your grooming methods, but you don't comment, you pool more water in your hands and bring it to her head again, but before you get high enough to pour over her again she brings her head forward and starts drinking from your hands. Nanoqi gulps loudly, unrefined slurping sounds come from her as she drinks from the palms of your hands. As she gets to the last drops her tongue slides along your palms and over your fingers, sending jolts through your body and downwards. She pulls her head back with a guttural groan, "Needed that, fucking bees."

You're taken aback at how she just drank from a stranger's hands, but you guess that a bear in a forest doesn't really have much reason to be careful. As you look at Nanoqi's body, you've gotten her sufficiently wet. Just as you did with her legs you start to rub her thighs, helping the honey to release its sticky hold. You see her body noticeably relax as you massage her thighs and pour water over them. You go higher and rub and rinse her stomach, she has decently defined abs, but her skin is soft to the touch. Your hands linger longer than they should and you find her midsection quivering under your grasp. The scent of honey is still strong and you feel another wave of warmth, inviting in these cold waters.

"Higher."

Nanoqi pulls you out of your thoughts with her request. Or maybe order. As you wet your hands again, next is her...chest. You look Nanoqi in the eyes as you raise your hands. She stares at you, her expression muted, but her eyes firmly locked on yours. You'd think it would be a trap if she didn't ask, but maybe you're reading to much into this. A stranger is about to feel her up. Help or not she probably just wants this to be over with sooner. Your cool hands touch warm flesh as you rub the sides of her breasts.

A throaty, albeit sensual growl comes from the mouth of the bear woman, "Firm touch. Goooood."

Nanoqi closes her eyes as you clean her breasts, going from the sides to the top and underneath. Your prepare your hands to wash her nipples next when Nanoqi interrupts, this time with a sentence, "Wait, the honey... Have you.. ever tried it?"

You raise an eyebrow, a little confused, but shake your head no. A toothy grin comes across Nanoqi's face, "Wanna?"

You knit your brow as you follow her gaze downwards. She doesn't mean, no, she totally does.

You look between Nanoqi, her brown eyes and her dark brown nipples still shining. Never look a gift bear in the tit.

Leaning over her body a little more and putting your hands to the sides of Nanoqi on the firm cave floor, you open your mouth and taste the honey soaked nipple.

"Warm," Nanoqi growls as your mouth seals her right nipple and she feels your tongue roll along the underside. You lick and suck the hard nub of her breast as the flavour of honey makes you quiver. Something about this honey warms your mouth, chest, stomach and even lower still. You suck and lick harder, even your teeth get involved, gently nibbling Nanoqi's nipple as your tongue strip mines it for every bit of honey. With a loud and wet pop you pull yourself off of her chest, only to make her gasp as she feels you immediately latch onto her left nipple and repeat your "cleaning". You swirl your tongue around and suck and lick and bite. The entire time Nanoqi groans and moans under you. If she has the strength to push you off she isn't showing it and her moans tickle the back of your mind as the honey sets your loins on fire. You pull back and lick further up, tasting her collar bone and neck for anymore of that sweet and intoxicating taste.

"Lower."

Nanoqi pulls you back with that one word. You look her in the eyes confused, but she gazes back at you with a cheeky confidence. Does she mean? You look down. You've washed her thoroughly, the only place there could be honey is...

You drop yourself further down her body and deeper into the water. The cold doesn't bother you anymore. Maybe you've gotten adjusted or its the honey. Either way you don't care as you part her thighs. As you get lower you find your thoughts clear up just a bit as the water bobs around your shoulders. That's when it hits you. The honey. Its some kind of aphrodisiac and you've had it slathered on you where you were carrying Nanoqi. Every time its scent hit you from what of it was left over your shoulder you've been slowly losing focus. This could be a chance to take control. A quick dunk in the cold water should help clear your mind but, you are between the skull crushing thighs of a woman whose heavily saturated in horny honey.

Deciding not to disappoint you bring your lips to her lips and lick along her slit. Nanoqi coos in excitement as you tongue her out folds. The water dilutes the taste, but as your tongue glides against her opening the familiar honey taste tickles your tastebuds. Your mind momentarily wonders to what kind of bees would put honey inside someone, but as your tongue pierces her feminine veil and the sweet sticky taste mingles with Nanoqi's own brand of honey you stop caring. Nanoqi growls and moans, her stomach quivers as your tongue invades her and you devour her taste. Your tongue laps and presses along the tight tunnel of her slit, the taste of be honey dissipating, but your hunger growing for a different honey that flows stronger.

Nanoqi's chest rises and falls as her breathing becomes more intense, her hips squirm so you reach up to hold her in place. You don't know if it's the honey or Nanoqi, but something is driving you to make sure your meal goes undisturbed. Too tired to fight your grip Nanoqi can only moan in pleasure as you continue to taste her depths.

"Fuck, too good!" Nanoqi cries out as she seems to get a second wind of strength and you feel her strong legs clamp around your head. The pressure she's placing on the side of your head compounded with the water is making it almost impossible to breathe. Your footing slips in the water as you try to stand up and Nanoqi is ignoring every tap on her thigh. If you don't want your adventure to end your only option is forward. Pulling back and sealing your mouth around Nanoqi's clit you begin tongue fucking her in earnest. Your licks are a labour of lust as you fight for your life against her labia. You feel Nanoqi's thighs tighten even more and your hopes start to dim with your vision, but as you feel the water around your chin get warmer the pressure subsides. With a scream Nanoqi cums loudly, if there was anything else in this cave, it definitely heard that its neighbour has company. And as for Nanoqi, it seems all the strength she had faded with her orgasm. Her legs fall limply from your shoulders as her chest strains up and down. You come up for air and see the bear girl in a daze. As if she didn't almost end your life for a nut.

You are doubled over Nanoqi, breathing heavily, but part of you is still full of energy. As Nanoqi's continues to pant and moan you undo your pants and she let's out a gleeful growl, "Yes!"

The second you regain your breath you are upright between her thighs, your shaft gliding along her lips as you rock back and forth.

Coming to rest at the entrance to her maidenhood you slowly thrust forward, her walls close in around the head of your cock, the pressure threatening to push you out, but you firmly grip Nanoqi's ass as you push through, prying her open and being met with a hot embrace.

"Fuck, hot, fuck," you mumble as you start to feel her warmth coat your shaft. You are far more eloquent as Nanoqi writhes and moan beneath you, "M-more..."

Firming your footing as you can you slowly begin to thrust, in and out. Nanoqi's cunt squeezes you and her warmth drips along your shaft every time you pull out. As you work your way into her the two of you lock eyes. You are on top of her, she can hardly move and yet the look in her eyes makes you feel as if she is the predator and you are the prey. This irks you somewhere deep. You firmly grip her muscular ass, leaving indents in the flesh and slam in deep.

Nanoqi's howls and her quaking thighs leave ripples in the water. With that one move you feel like you've clawed back some of the control of this coupling. Your grit your teeth and begin thrusting faster. The sound of sloshing water serves as the backing track to the slapping of hips and the moaning of two honey fuelled bodies. As you frantically thrust in and out of Nanoqi you find yourself unable to look away from her display. Apart from the tight and welcoming embrace, the rawest expression of pleasure on her face is intoxicating. Eyes half lidded and rolled back, tongue lazily hanging to the side of her open mouth. She'd almost feel defenceless if not for the sharp teeth. You have her howling and moaning in ecstasy, but can't shake the feeling that you aren't the aggressor here, just the opportunist. You caught her at the right moment so you fuck harder, hitting the back of her womb with repeated jabs from your swollen cock head. You make waves in the water and Nanoqi makes echoes in the cave with her growls and moaning. As her hot honeypot squeezes you like a vice and urges you to return to her wet embrace every time you pull out, Nanoqi again gets another burst of energy. Her head snaps up, catching you off guard, but you have no time to pull away as the next thing you feel is her legs wrapped around you pulling you into her as your forehead meets hers. Staring you down the powerful woman pulls and pushes you into her and you grit your teeth. The squeezing becomes more intense and you guess her orgasm is coming soon, hence the renewed lucidity.

Gripping her backside again and matching her pace with your thrusts instead of being commanded, you refuse to be a sex toy, forest mid boss or not, you have some pride. Your strokes come fast and hard, with every connection made between your bodies a fine layer of sweat is shaken from Nanoqi's chest.

She continues to stare you down, as her legs start giving you less and less room to thrust. You weren't planning on it, but Nanoqi has no intentions of allowing you to pull out. Nanoqi's moans grow rougher and more ragged as she pulls you to rest deeper and deeper. It isn't long before you are barely moving inside her, only being left enough space to repeatedly kiss her cervix, but this is just enough stimulation as Nanoqi throws her head back and her legs completely press you into her, balls deep as she moans and wrings you for everything as she cums.

If her quim was vice like before, it now feels like your dick is being crushed from tip to base as her walls churn and damn near **** your orgasm.

"FUCK!"

The words are torn from your mouth as your knees buckle and you fall forward, laying on top of Nanoqi as you flood her womb with hot seed. You pulse repeatedly as you unload into her and in time with every shot her legs quiver and hug you tighter. You don't even struggle anymore as her soft breasts comfort your face. All you can do over the next few minutes is moan as her tight pussy milks another shot and another shot out of you.

...

Finally you feel the strength in Nanoqi's legs relent and fall to the side. You pull yourself up by your hands and almost fall back into the water as you sway off balance on shaky feet. Giving yourself a few more seconds and deep breaths before you try again you pull yourself out of the water. As you turn back to pull Nanoqi further from the edge you are gripped by the sight. Although still on her back and possibly unable to move, her head is tilted up and staring right at you. Her eyes alert, her breathing more calm than its been since you've seen her. You've never felt more in danger in this world than at this very moment. As your eyes meet there are no words that need to be spoken. You keep your eyes on her as you back away. Towards your clothes. Towards your sword.

Nanoqi doesn't, or actually she can't move all the while you're doing this, but all the same you don't need to be here a moment longer. Dressed and armed you slowly walk back to the mouth of the cave with measured steps. Better not run, at best that would make you look afraid and at worst you might activate some predatory instinct in her.

The second the light of the forest hits your face again there is a relieved sigh. Not from you, from Baroqua, "You've got balls. Half expected her to rip your arms off, but luckily that honey should have her down for a few more hours."

"You were oddly quiet during all of that.'

Baroqua laughs, "I never cockblock, besides you already committed to trusting this crazy forest. Means you have to own your wins and losses too. Now get us as far away from this cave as you can, because if that bear girl decides she likes the smell of you, ain't nowhere far enough to run."

The thought of being hunted by Nanoqi sends a chill down your spine and for no reason whatsoever you decide to go for a brisk jog instead of a leisurely walk.
