Chapter 128

--- 21st Day, Late Evening ---

We were walking hand in hand back to Ortas in silence while I was thinking over my whole conversation with Whitney, when something suddenly brushed over my shoulders. I flinched, then realized it was Zoe’s tail.

She trailed it down my spine, sending a shiver through my body, and when it reached just above my ass, she used her skill on me, sending a burst of pleasant sensations through me.

“Zoe,” I groaned, looking at her in surprise.

“Yeah?” she asked innocently, gazing at me with her big eyes. She could pretend all she wanted, but the soft blush on her cheeks and the way her eyes shifted from pink to purple betrayed what was on her mind.

“What are you doing?”

“Nothing,” she replied, yet her tail brushed my back again, sending another blissful wave through my body.

A groan escaped my lips, which made her giggle.

It was getting late, but we still have enough time for some fun, and even though we’d already spent time alone together that day, I didn’t really mind having more of it with Zoe. Especially when it was like the first days when we met, all alone in the middle of nowhere.

But when I stepped closer, wanting to pull her in for a kiss, she suddenly jumped back. She grinned, watching me carefully, her tail slipping off my back and rising slowly behind her. She was waiting for my move, but looked ready to run.

“What are you doing?” I asked again with a smile, slowly approaching her.

“Me?” she asked in a cute voice. “I’m just taking a walk,” she replied, starting to move away from me. “All alone in this big scary forest.”

“Alone? That sounds dangerous. You might run into a man who’d try to take advantage of you.”

“Oh… men don’t have classes, silly. They can’t catch me,” Zoe replied, waving her hand dismissively.

“That sounds like a challenge,” I said, stepping almost within arm’s reach.

“Maybe it is,” she purred.

I leapt forward, trying to grab her, but she was faster, suddenly jumping to the side. She had clearly used her skill, but I immediately followed, running after her. She turned and rushed between the trees.

She was fast on her slim legs, her tail trailing behind her as I chased her. I was slowly closing the distance, watching that tail sway, wanting to catch it, to grab her. But whenever I got close, she glanced over her shoulder, stuck her tongue out at me, then leapt again, changing direction and increasing the distance once more.

“Too slow, Master,” she called as I turned after her, then dashed off again.

“I will catch you,” I said, chasing her. Sooner or later she would relent and let me catch her, but the whole point was the chase. I kept running after her while she kept glancing back to make sure I was still following.

She was running faster now, keeping the distance steady, and I couldn’t quite close in. I could have used my mana to stop her, but for now I was enjoying the chase, watching her hips sway as she changed direction.

When she suddenly stopped, I did the same, keeping my distance.

“I told you, a man can’t catch me,” she teased with a smirk.

“I almost got you,” I replied.

“Almost isn’t enough,” Zoe said.

“You’re asking for trouble,” I warned, and hoping she would be distracted, I suddenly rushed at her again. But she reacted in time, laughing as she darted away, her tail swaying provocatively.

I ran after her as fast as I could, my focus locked on her form, trying to predict her movements as she kept changing direction, sometimes leaping with her skill to widen the distance. Still, little by little, I was gaining on her. We played like that for a while, me getting closer, her slipping away, but it couldn’t last forever. She would run out of mana eventually, and the only way for her to recover it would be when I finally caught her.

As we ran, she reached a small meadow that would have been a perfect spot to have sex, but she dashed past it and back into the trees. My heart was pounding from the chase, desire growing stronger with every step.

We passed the meadow, but Zoe must have come to the same conclusion I had, because not long after she suddenly jumped to the side, then back toward it. If not for her skill, I might actually have caught her. I came close a few times, but the tease always waited until the last moment to dash away again.

We were back on the meadow when I got within reach of her tail, ready for another sudden change of direction as she leapt left, but what I wasn’t ready for was her turning straight toward me. Her body collided with mine, and we both crashed to the ground.

I was on my back with her straddling me, her tail immediately wrapping around my waist possessively.

“Got you,” she groaned before her lips crashed into mine, the last thing I caught were her red eyes. The kiss was passionate and hungry as she pushed her tongue into my mouth, grinding her crotch against me.

Using all that mana had left her with almost nothing. I checked her status and saw she had two points, which instantly jumped to full when she drained it from my body. I quickly wrapped my arms around her and rolled us over so she was beneath me, pinned to the ground in case she tried to run again with her newly restored mana.

But it seemed the chase was over, because she didn’t stop kissing me. Her tail stayed wrapped around my waist, its tip slipping into my pants and coiling around my cock, which was hardening at a fast pace.

When she used her skill on my shaft, I groaned into our kiss, and she used that moment to flip us again, straddling me. Sitting up, she grabbed my shirt and urgently pulled it off while I reached for her hips, pressing her harder against me. My cock, wrapped in her tail, ground against her crotch as she teased me, coiling and tightening.

When she tossed my shirt aside, I reached up and slid my hand into her white hair, pulling her down for another kiss. My other hand landed on her ass, groping it while her tail kept working around my cock.

Our bodies writhed against each other, lips locked in a ****, hungry kiss as our clothes quickly vanished. Soon we were completely naked. I slid free of her tail’s embrace and straight into her hot wet pussy as she ground herself against me. I rolled us again, my hands roaming over her tits as I pinched her aroused pink nipples and squeezed the soft pale flesh.

On top of her, I started to fuck her, thrusting almost my full length in and out of her, and as I did, I activated my skill to enlarge my cock between thrusts. It drew more reactions from her, her tail tightening around my waist, its tip finding its way to my balls, pressing gently before she used her skill again, sending a burst of pleasure that made my cock throb and pushed me dangerously close to orgasm.

But she wasn’t far behind, judging by the moans spilling from her lips. I didn’t know if it was the chase, her arousal, or the fact she’d used all her mana and her body demanded release. We were still kissing when she used her skill again, and this time it was too much.

Pleasure shot from my balls to my cock, there it sparked into a looming burst of delight that washed over my whole body as I slammed deep into her, pushing my tongue into her mouth at the same time. My hips ground against hers as my cock pulsed inside and my first spurt erupted deep within her.

That was the moment she broke too. Her legs shot up to wrap around my hips as she pulled back from the kiss with a lewd moan, eyes closed, clutching desperately at my back and dragging me closer while her body writhed, grinding her pelvis into mine.

We both came there in the forest meadow, pleasure coursing through us as we held each other as tightly as possible, her pussy spasming around my cock as it gave her exactly what she wanted.

With pleasure still lingering in my body but my cock already spent, I rolled us over again so I lay on my back and she rested on my chest, letting out soft purrs and quiet moans as she rubbed against me like a happy cat.

Lying there in the meadow, I enjoyed the peaceful afterglow, wondering what had gotten into Zoe - was it because she was a horny little devil who couldn’t stop thinking about sex, because she wanted to claim me again after I’d had contact with another vampire, or because she’d wanted to distract me from worrying. But she could have achieved all that through sex alone. The chase had a different reason.

“You did it on purpose,” I said quietly.

“Hmm?” she hummed, blinking her pink eyes at me.

“All that running and chasing. You wanted me to go all out and catch you at full speed.”

“Oh…” she said with a giggle. “Master, I just couldn’t resist you. Just being next to you makes me all hot inside and my pussy needy.”

“And that’s why you were running away?” I asked.

“A girl can’t be too easy,” Zoe purred. “A guy sometimes needs to put in effort to fuck her.”

I chuckled, sliding my hand to her head and gently tilting her face closer to me. “I love you,” I murmured, studying her gorgeous features before pressing my lips to hers in a much softer kiss.

Holding her close, I realized we really had spent a lot of time alone together that day - having sex a few times, cuddling, training. The next day I was supposed to have a one-on-one date with Amber, and then there was Azura, who hadn’t had any time alone with me lately. She wasn’t the type to ask for it, but she still deserved it.

I decided I’d make time just for her too, to give her my full attention and show her a little more love.

After cuddling for a while longer, we gathered our clothes scattered across the meadow and headed back to Ortas, our moods fixed after the meeting with Whitney and Sage.

Back at the house, I had barely managed to open the door when Azura rushed at me, throwing herself into my arms, her legs wrapping around my hips as she clutched my body and pressed her lips to mine in a needy kiss.

“Love you too, baby,” I murmured against her lips, squeezing her ass, but I let go immediately when Anna walked out of her room and looked toward us.

“Hey,” I said as Azura slid down my body and turned toward her sister.

“Hey,” Anna replied, her eyes lingering on me as she stood there.

“Do you need something?” I asked.

“Amber told me you’re going to a lake today. And I’ve never been to a lake,” she said in her cute voice.

“Do you want to come with us?” I asked.

“Can I?” she asked hopefully, looking up at me.

“If your mom agrees,” I replied.

“Yay!” she gasped, running over and wrapping her arms around both of us, though mostly around her sister who was standing in front of me. “Thank you!”

“Mom told her that you have to agree,” Azura explained.

“Alysson and your mom can join too,” I added.

“Thank you, thank you,” Anna said, then ran back to her room, bouncing with excitement. I heard a joyful squeal inside, and a moment later Hannah peeked out as she closed the door behind her.

“Do you want to come with us too?” I asked.

“Oh… uh… okay,” Hannah replied nervously.

“How did the potion lesson go?” I asked.

“Oh… good. Alysson seemed interested in it. Anna too, even if she gets a bit distracted by other things. But… if Amber wouldn’t mind teaching them more, they’d really like to keep learning from her.”

“I’ll talk to Amber, but I don’t think that’ll be a problem,” I said with a smile. Even if Amber would complain, some good fucking would immediately change her mind. “We should leave soon for your job interview.”

“R-Right,” Hannah stammered.

“Relax, it’s going to be okay,” I said, brushing her shoulder, hoping to calm her a little. “Selira is really nice.”

“I’ll try… thank you,” Hannah replied.

“It’s nothing,” I said, and then we parted ways as I headed upstairs with Zoe and Azura. In our room, Amber was sitting on the bed reading a book, but Zoe immediately interrupted her.

“What’s that?!” she gasped, leaping onto the bed and grabbing a piece of cloth from it.

“While you were gone, we went shopping for swimsuits,” Amber replied, setting the book aside. Judging by the cover, it looked like something about potions.

“Shopping without me?!” Zoe gasped, looking shocked at the elf.

“You weren’t here,” Amber shrugged. “But that one’s for you.”

“This? For me?” Zoe asked, looking at the swimsuit in her hands. Then she dropped it and launched herself at Amber, wrapping her in a hug as they rolled across the bed while Zoe kissed her and thanked her. Amber tried to push her off, though it didn’t look like she was trying very hard.

I was surprised Amber would buy something for Zoe, especially when she hadn’t even been there.

“Did you get one too?” I asked Azura.

She hummed and pointed to a swimsuit lying on the table beside several others that clearly weren’t hers - they were larger, more suited to Amber.

“Mia and Terra bought some too. And Anna and Alysson,” Amber added once they stopped rolling, now lying on her back with Zoe straddling her.

“You all went shopping?” I asked.

Amber shrugged.

“You’re getting soft,” I said with a chuckle.

“I’m not!” Amber protested. “I wanted to take Anna and Alysson to the market to show them other plants we didn’t find. Azura and Hannah insisted on coming along. Terra-” Amber was interrupted when Zoe, still on top of her, grabbed her both tits and squeezed.

“Hey, I’m talking,” Amber said, trying to brush Zoe’s hands off her breasts, but the succubus was relentlessly groping them with a giggle, so Amber just focused on me again. “Terra feels the need to prove she’s useful, so she said she had to go with us to protect us, even though I told her several times I can take care of myself. And Mia gave me those big bunny eyes, and how could I refuse? And after the market I wanted to buy some swimsuits for myself, and somehow we all ended up there.”

I chuckled, kneeling on the bed and leaning down to kiss her while Zoe kept playing with her tits. “Thank you,” I murmured.

As I pulled away and slid off the bed, Zoe kissed Amber lips on lips, making the elf let out a muffled sound as her body tensed before Zoe pulled back with a grin. “Thank you,” she murmured. Amber looked slightly stunned.

“You can’t just use that skill on me like that,” the elf protested weakly.

“No?” Zoe asked, and Amber let out another soft sound as Zoe squeezed her tits again, the skill clearly working even through the shirt. Zoe giggled as she slipped off her, her tail trailing behind her, and when it slid between the drow’s legs she used her skill again, making Amber curl slightly on the bed with a moan.

“You little minx,” I murmured with a chuckle as Zoe came over and pecked my lips. I sensed a moment when she drew mana from me to replace what she’d just spent. There was no way I could stop her, but at least this time I noticed it.

“When are we heading out?” Amber asked.

“Zoe and I need to take a bath, then the library, then come back, and we can go,” I replied. As Amber just nodded, I added, “Anna and Alysson enjoyed learning from you.”

“You want me to teach them more?” Amber asked, squinting her eyes at me.

“That would be very nice of you,” I replied.

She pouted, but didn't need a lot of time to think before she rolled her eyes. “I suppose I can help them.”

“You really are getting soft,” I replied, chuckling.

Amber protested pouting, but I grabbed Azura’s hand, and pulled her out of the room along with Zoe toward the bathroom. The wolf shapeshifter followed without a question, but I stopped in front of the bathroom, a new idea crossing my mind.

“Go start the bath,” I said, leaving them there as I headed for Mari’s room and knocked. She opened the door but didn’t invite me in, standing in the doorway.

“What?” she asked, not a trace of friendliness in her voice.

“We’re going to a lake outside Ortas in about half an hour. Maybe an hour.”

“And?”

“And you’re coming with us.”

“No thanks.”

“It’ll be dark soon, it’s outside the city, and Anna, Alysson, Hannah, and Mia are coming. And you’re supposed to be my bodyguard.”

Mari glared at me, one ear twitching slightly while the other was still covered in bandages. “You’ll have Terra and Zoe with you,” she replied.

“There’ll be a lot of us, and I want you to keep an eye on everyone.”

“You just want to see me in a swimsuit, perv!” she snapped.

“No, you’re forbidden from wearing a swimsuit, swimming, or having fun at all. The rest of us will enjoy ourselves while you make sure we stay safe,” I replied.

A frown crossed her face as she considered it, with confusion clear in her expression.

“We’re leaving soon, so get ready,” I added.

She huffed and shut the door, but I knew she’d come. With that settled, and quite a trip ahead of us, I headed back toward the bathroom, where my two lovely girlfriends were waiting.
