The Siege of Valera begins

Shortly after dawn The Royal Transport settled down at the furthest edge of the main encampment around Valera. Jake smiled at the sight before him. Thousands of soldiers and ground vehicles from The Staphosian Army as well as those from the house guards from a of the nobility surrounded the ancient walled city on all sides. All the while, transports brought in more and more troops by the hour. Sleek nimble fighters that Jake was sure would give Earth's N35 Javelin a run for it's money, established air and orbit superiority.

As he watched a formation in flight he heard several thunderous bangs as the heavy artillery units fired on the city in an attempt to break through the barrier dome that he had no doubt Ducessa Cynthia Aldano had ordered erected.

"You're Majesty, I am General Caylin Deandra," a middle aged woman said as she knelt on one knee to her king. "It's an honor to finally meet you my king. Our combined forces moved as soon as you gave the order. I am happy to report that there is little hope of escape from the city."

"Good General, do we have an estimate of when we can expect to have the shield down? Or any intel from inside the city?"

"Unfortunately my king, the shield is rather strong. I have ordered the heavy bombers from the first and third fleets here. They are due at mid-day. They will surely help," General Deandra answered as she slowly stood once Jake had motioned her to do so. "As for the city, as soon as you interrogated Hannah we've had people in the city. This way please Your Majesty, we best have the rest of this conversation more privately."

"Very well. I'd like to keep Adriana with me, is there somewhere my other slaves can be safely put?"

"Yes Your Majesty, a pre-fab has been set up for you," General Deandra said before turning to one of her assistants. "Major, take His Majesty's slaves to his pre-fab."

"Yes General," the Major said before un-clipping the short chain connecting Adriana to her fellow slaves and leading them away.

A few minutes later, Jake stood in the camps command center. Again he was impressed by the efficiency of The Staphosian Army, his army. Everything looked to be running smoothly.

"General, what do we know?" he asked.

"Thankfully, the shield has not disrupted communications, and according to those we have in the city, the citizens are almost unanimously against the Ducessa. She is currently hoarding all the supplies within her castle."

"Why am I not surprised," Jake said with a heavy sigh. "Do we know anything else?"

"Well... we did have a contact close to the ducessa, but, she went silent," another soldier said before General Deandra could answer. The general turned to her with a scowl on her face.

"Lieutenant?" Jake asked as he stroked Adriana's hair.

"As I said Your Majesty, we had someone close enough to the ducessa to report on her, but, we haven't heard from her in some time."

"Best case scenario: She's simply radio silent. Worst case scenario: She's been compromised and captured."

"Precisely Your Majesty," General Deandra said. "What would you like to do?"

"Hope for the best, plan for the worst. As of now we must assume the ducussa has knowledge of any and all plans we've made."

"Very wise Your Majesty."

"Thank you general. I wonder, if I could have someone prepare one of my slaves for my pleasure, once our business here is done of course?"

"Absolutely Your Majesty, do you have any preferences?" The woman whom appeared to be General Deandra's chief aid asked."

"Anika, my **** from The Lakonti Islands. She's...," Jake began.

"The dark skinned beauty with the long braided ponytail," the aid said with a smile. "Would you like her bound in any special way?"

"Bent over something with her legs spread wide."

"I'll see to it Your Majesty," the aid said before leaving.

An hour later, the heavy bombers arrived and began pounding the city's shield. Even so, it was estimated that it would take at least a week for the bombers and artillery to overload the shield.

Jake entered his pre-fab with a groan. "The sitting around and waiting is the worst part," he said to himself as he led Adriana to the room where his girls were being kept. It was easy enough to find. All he had to do was follow the buzzing and moans.

When he entered the room he couldn't help but laugh. Each of his girls, except for Anika, laid on their backs with their necks and hands secured in binders with vibrators at their pussies.

"Hello Your Majesty," one of the guards said in greeting. "Anika awaits your pleasure in your room at the top of the stairs."

"Thank you guard," he said as he led Adriana next to Celine, where there was an empty set of binders waiting for the busty queen. "Down," he said sternly as he pointed to the binders, and removed her leash. Adriana quickly laid on her back and with the flick of a switch, the binders snapped closed with a slight tink from the metal colliding. After they closed the binders adjusted, tightening down until they fit snugly against her neck and wrists. The guard came over with a vibrator. She turned it on low and inserted it into Adriana's pussy.

"I will keep a watchful eye on your girls Your Majesty." He gave a nod before heading to his bedchamber.

When he got there, he found Anika with her head and hands secured in a stockade. He walked in front of her and laughed when he saw her gently sucking on the dildo gag in her mouth. "Ready to serve your master, whore?" he asked as he removed the gag and set it on the bed.

"Yes Master," she said as Jake picked up a flogger and began to use it on Anika's ass. Each strike from the multi-tailed whip caused her to moan in pain. He kept a slow deliberate pace for nearly ten minutes before finally stopping. When he did he let her out of the stockade.

"Turn around bitch, feet apart, hands on your head, and tilt your head back," he ordered. Without a word, Anika turned to face her master, and stood as directed. "I think those tits of yours could use some attention as well don't you?" he asked before starting to flog her tits.

"Yes Master."

Jake skillfully flogged his ****'s tits for a few minutes before ordering her to her knees. He pulled out his aching cock and she obediently took him in her mouth and began to bob her head and gently suck his cock. He let her keep that pace for sometime before his need over took him and he began to thrust his hips forcing Anika to deep throat him.

"Take it all down," he said through a groan as he sent a bountiful load of cum down Anika's throat. "Good girl, now get on the bed on all fours."

"Yes Master, thank you for feeding me so much cum," she said as she climbed up onto the bed. Before Jake could do anything further General Deandra entered the room and knelt to her king.

"Please forgive the interruption Your Majesty, but, you are needed at the command center."

"Very well," he said pulling up his pants. He then clipped the leash to Anika's collar and led her back down stairs. Once she was with her fellow slaves he and Deandra made their way to the camp's commands center. When they arrived he saw a young dark haired woman, covered in filth and stinking to high heaven.

"Forgive the smell Your Majesty," General deandra said when she saw the look on his face. "Tell our king what you told us," the general said in an encouraging tone.

"Your Majesty," the woman began dropping to one knee, proper for her as she did not wear his collar. "I came here, after I managed to escape Valera through the sewers."

"What's your name?" he asked.

"Justine, Your Majesty."

"Justine, can you show us the entrance to the sewers?"

"Of course Your Majesty."

"Someone get Justine cleaned up, she may have given us away to end this.

"Yes Your Majesty, Deandra said before she turned to one of her aids. "Colonel, get someone to see to this young woman."

"Yes General," the colonel said with a salute.

Jake may have a way to end the cult and set the power balance of Staphos where it belongs, with him. But, is Justine as she seems? What will the people of Valera think of their rightful King? Is the intel right? Or, will they side with Ducessa Aldano? Answer in comments.
