Creature of the shadows ~open~

She agreed to join me on my quest and I was surprisingly relieved, I had not wanted to force her to join me and it would be a more pleasurable journey with her. My mind flitted to my family and I wondered if they would accept an outsider as my lover, I thought that they would have little choice when it was known she had saved my life.

She suggested rest and I was a little disappointed that we would not continue our discovery of each others bodies. Again the conflict in me arose, I should not have to ask permission to have my way with her yet it was important to me that she should consent. She offered me the bed and said that she would bathe first and it pained me to let her go. I wanted so deeply to be with her know but she appeared to be dismissing me from her presence.

I watched her leave and enter the room I had discovered earlier, with the hot spring. I was not only feeling need of a bath of my own bit wanted to spend time with her, the journey would be fraught and dangerous, now I felt the need for relaxation, but not sleep.

I could see her enter the spring through the opening in the wall and as she stretched out her wings saw her full breasts jutting proudly out towards me once more. I longed to touch and taste them again, to make her my own once more before the danger came. She submerged herself in the water and it was almost too much for me to bear.

I decided that I could not leave her to bathe alone and quickly followed her into the room, entering the spring silently as she was under the water. As her head appeared out of the water I was sure I could sense relief in her expression, as if a weight had been lifted from her. I eyed her curiously as I let me sore wings dip into the bubbling water.

"I hope you don't mind me joining you but I am sticky and dirty from my adventures and need to clean myself properly. You have done a wonderful job of bathing me in bed but nothing can beat an actual bath"

She watched me and indicated that she did not mind at all and I was lost in her eyes again as we sat opposite each other. I could only tell myself that my rigours had made me lose control of me actions as I lurched across the spring and kissed her deeply once more. She did not resist and in fact began to respond with equal vigour, her tongue exploring my mouth as keenly as my did hers. My cock had risen to full length again and I sense she wanted me again too
 
WAs somewhat surprised that he did join me. Relieved but shocked. I smiled at him showing him i did not mind at all.

"Sponge baths never compare to the real thing."
I wanted to go to him so badly, for some reason I had this feel of rejection though. Couldn't place why or where it was comming from. It rested deeply in my heart no matter what I told myself. Guess being alone for so long, makes one tired and cautious of being hurt.

Suddenly, out of nowhere I was in his arms again, kissing him. A deep more intese kiss than before. A kiss saying what words could/ would not say. Pulled more into the kiss, wrapping my arms around him tightly, not wanting to let go of him. This was the moment I fell, now when he leaves, I'm going to be hurting again. There was no way his kin would accept me, would they?

It was rare for a clan of gargoyles to accept strangers, least of all from these lands. The ones from these lands, well used to be from these lands had a pretty bad rumor about them. Probably wouldn't matter, he may not take me with him anyway. Most males wouldn't do that. He did seem different although, As the males change that much?

I had to stop thinking about all this, pushing it all to the back of mind. Wrap my legs around his waist, feeling the freshly hard shaft rub lightly inbetween my legs along slit, against the aching nub that forces me to tremble lightly. Breaking the kiss to look into his eyes.

"I........ I want to be with you, not just now, but..... When you go to leave me.... Want to be by your side...... If you don't wish for the same, I will understand."

Moving my hips back and forth, rubbing myself along the great length that was spreading apart my tender lips. Kissing along his neck and ears.

The feelings were surfacing again, the srong intense feelings I had for her. It was no good, I had to complete my mision but then if my clan were to reject her then I would have to live in exile. I would not be able to live without her, I felt her in my soul now, part of me. She clung to me as if scared that I would leave her but no way would I do that, although I could not bring myself to tell her that.

I felt her sacred lips rubbing against the bulbous head of my cock and she looked deep into my eyes as if searching for information. I held her gaze as she struggled to express her feelings for me, it seemed to be hard for her and I stroked her wings to encourage her.

She made it clear that she felt the same as I and I was impressed at how she had mustered the courage to say it out loud. She had taken a huge risk, it was not done for females to make requests of their males. I knew that it was probably a product of her loneliness and wondered if she were accepted within my clan, whether her love for me would last once the loneliness disappeared.

I pushed this thought to the back of my mind as I felt my cock begin to penetrate her, spreading her lips wide apart as her pussy enveloped me. She was kissing my face and neck and the position was alien for gargoyles, the closeness not a feature of gargoyle mating. But this was not mating, this was lovemaking and not done just for the males pleasure.

The bubbling water flowed around us as we made love slowly and luxuriously in the spring. At first she did most of the work, moving her hips from side to side and working my cock around her pussy. Gradually I took more control and started to thrust into her more, pinning her to the rock side of the spring. My cock seemed to be reaching deeper into her than before and she began to gasp in unison with my grunts.
 
When he didn't respond verbally to the scared words I had spoken. My heart sank a little. I didn't show it, didn't want to. I had spoken out of line, females hardly ever showed their feelings for another. Specially when the males were demanding as it is, they wouldn't listen anyway, or care for that matter.

"I'm sorry.... I.." Cutting my words short, not wanting to kill the moment, also the feeling of his member slowly stretching me again, only brought out purrs. It felt so right, so wonderous to feel him inside. Filling my every being, as if he was entering my soul somehow. Claws dig into his shoulders lightly, never wanting to let him go. Held onto him, pressing hard against thrusting myself onto him. Moaning, breathing becomes heavier.

The strangest feeling washed over me, never in all my time had it like this... it was as if we were making love?!? his grip seemed to become tighter, stronger when he pushed me against the rock. Slight whimper let out as I couldn't move like I had been anymore. He was gaining control of things, not that I minded in the least. Seemed like he couldn't get enough of me..... I know I couldn't of him...

Loosened the grip my legs had on him, letting him have easier movements. Even my arms let go, reaching above my head to grip the ledge at my head, exposing full luscious breast to him. Squirming within his arms, purring loudly between the moans.

Her grips on my shoulders increased as I fucked her against the side of the pool, her claws ripping my flesh slightly. I did not mind this as again it was exciting for a female to respond during sex and the whimpers she was making showed me the correct respect. I felt her legs loosen around my waist and I was able to make longer strokes.

Her arms withdrew from my shoulders and gripped the ledge above her giving me complete access to her breasts. I lowered my head and bit her nipple, not hard enough to break flesh, but enough to make her squeal. I wasn't sure whether the squeal was pain or excitment or both but whichever it was, she was beginning to moan softly to herself in pleasure.

I changed my affections to her other breast, giving it the same attention and knew this time that her moan was of arousal. My cock was twitching now and I had not felt the closeness to me release in the warm water of the spring. I heard her shriek as she came herself and this pushed me to the edge and I began to pump my seed into her.

We stayed in the water, hugging and kissing, there was no rush to leave the spring and I enjoyed her closeness. Eventually we had to move though as the afternoon was wearing on and we needed to prepare for the nights journey. I dried her with a towel, giving special attention to her wings. Soon we were dry and I could sense a feeling of desparation falling over her again. I took a deep breath and tried to put her mind to rest.

"You are my female now, I will protect you and you will bear me children. If my kin do not accept you we will live in exile as you do now, maybe here or maybe a new colony of our own. I will not leave you and you can rely on me to take care of you, in return I ask for your respect and..........love."

Love, not the gargoyle way, but the feelings I had for her must be love, what else could they be.
 
It was unbelievable to release like that in water, wasn't at all rough like normally it would be. Is this what love felt like? Was never quite like this for me before. Screamed out his name into my own release, writhing and trembling in his arms with the incredible sensation he brings to me.

Time came for us to get ready to head out, drying him off tenderly making sure his wings are well enough for the flight. Softly rubbing down his arms and legs. He did the same to me, spent longer attention to my wings bringing out little purrs, wings were just as sensitive to the touch as any other part of me.


Trying hard not to show it, still, it must have shown.
In the back of my mind that voice kept telling me I was to never see him again. That once this was all over he would be gone, if he did come back then what? Or if by some miracle he asked me to go with him, was I truly ready to leave my home? Yes I was, I needed a fresh start, a place I knew nothing about. Leave all this behind me would be the greastest thing..... Best of all I would be with him..
Words broke the silence, his words.
"You are my female now, I will protect you and you will bear me children. If my kin do not accept you we will live in exile as you do now, maybe here or maybe a new colony of our own. I will not leave you and you can rely on me to take care of you, in return I ask for your respect and..........love."

A male speaking of such things?!? Of love? Respect? Took me a few mins to fully take everything in and know for sure that he meant such things. His eyes told me that he did.

"I.... I don't know what to say..... I would have never expected you to say such things.. I mean you no disrespect of course, just not used to hearing words such as you spoke of....
"I do respect you with everything that I am.....And I'm pretty sure that this is......love.... that I feel for you.
"Although. If your kin does not accept me, I do not wish for you become exiled, not just for me. M'love, I'm just a mere soul that's lost, you have found me yes, that does not make me worth it for you to become exiled out of the clan you love and trying to save. "

Casted my gaze away from him,
"I would go to the ends of this so called world with you, but it would pain me to see you become an out cast just for me. M'love"

I listened to her humble words, knowing instantly that I had made the correct decision to speak my feelings. She for her part had comitted herself to me and I now knew that I could honestly trust her.

"Worry not my woman, that is for the future and should not trouble you greatly. What is important now is my mission and we must leave as soon as it is safe, I feel well enough to fly and need you only to guide me my love."

The sun was setting into the west and it would soon be time to leave, she made me promise to try out my newly healed wings before we took flight. I took to the skies at dusk with her anxiously flying beside me. My wings felt good, a little achy but otherwise perfect and once we landed I told her that I should not waste any further energy on test flights as the journey tonight would be a sufficient test.

She seemed unsure until I promised her I would be fine and she agreed to the trip on the condition that I told her if I was tiring. We set off as the sunlight disappeared from the distant sky and headed north, her leading and me bringing up the rear. She looked magnificent in flight, I had watched her before, from below, but this was different. Her wingspan seemed much wider than I had thought in her cramped home and her svelt body cut through the air like a dagger.

We flew for miles and I was pleased to notive no further pain from my own wings, only a dull aching and stiffness caused by my inactivity. After maybe three hours I saw her point to the land below and begin her descent, swooping quickly to the items she had pointed out.
 
It felt wonderful to take to the skies. Seemed like an enternity since I last flew. Stretching everything to it's fullest, legs arms, most importantly, wings. My place wasn't terribly small, just never think about stretching inside, never the same.

Being with extreme caution of his wings, trying not to be demanding on my part. Just I didn't want to see him put strain on his wings that was not needed. He promised, which eased me some. Like all males, he could have been just saying those things to make me happy.
The sunset was beautiful, watching the mountain relish the sun like it belonged hidden in the depths of the hills. Lavialo seemed to be enjoying himself again, must have been a good month since he's flown like that, maybe longer. Who knows how long he was on the ground hurt. Surprising that I had found him and nothing else. Anything else would have killed him instantly. I had to wonder how he survived like that.

After making sure that he would be ok for the flight, being a good three or four hours away he would need his strength both ways. He looked so magnificent in the skies, against the sunset colored clouds. His wings were massive, more so than I would have guessed. I saw them full expand in the cave, they somehow didn't compare to when he flew. Every muscle tense with prescion. Soaring through the air like a hawk.

Seeing the red and purple flowers with pure white stems covering the hillside, pointed to them indicating that's what he wanted. It was an entire hillside just covered with the rose shaped flowers. It was odd because this was the only hill that had them, and only on one side. When you pick them they actually bleed. It's the blood of the rose that gives off the power of the cure among anything else. Humans have no knowledge of this plant. If they did there would be none left.
Soon I will have the growing around my cave, they take forever and great care for them to grow just right.

"We shall rest here for a bit. Grab as much as you feel you will need, these plants actually are quite strong in their workings. Becarefull for they do bleed, Deep red blood. And if sealed right, the blood stays fresh for as long as needed."
"Soon we will go after the book, there is no point in returning home, it will just make us back track time we.... you.. do not have. There is a cave not to far from here we can stay in. Nothing like what I have, but it will do."

Smiled up at him before I started collecting the roses.

It felt so liberating to be take to the skies again and I was almost disappointed whe she indicated that we had reached our destination. My heart leapt though as I saw the first part of my quest was near completion. She showed me the correct way to gather the roses to ensure that their precious cargo was not spilt and I began to gather more than I needed for my people, in case of emergencies. I also made sure that I had more than enough to cure myself and my new mate if we did fall prey to the plague too.

She told me of the cave as we gathered the roses and pointed out that it would only delay us if we returned to her own cave. I thought I could detect a hint of sadness in her voice as if she wondered if she would ever return to her home except in the unhappiest of circumstances. I paused for a moment and embraced her gratefully, holding her close to me until her smile returned.

The sun was beginning to rise in the east and she ushered me away from the top of the hillside into the valley below. Having come so far it would not be wise to risk the ever increasing power of the sun's northern rays. Scurrying into the cave with minutes to spare before the whole hill became bathed in the morning sunshine was sat together watching the sun cast it's deadly glow all around.

We watched the morning begin until the sun became to strong for our eyes and we then retreated into the deeper recesses of the cave. It was cool further in and the cave was empty but for the remains of a long extinguished campfire. She saw me look at the embers and confirmed that this area had once been inhabited by gargoyles before the curse.

I could see she was tired now and so went to sit with her in the corner of the cave, my wings draped around her shoulders. We huddled together and sleep began to overtake us as we recovered from our journey.

"Thank you my dear, I could not have come even this far without you"

Her eyes filled with tears at my words and I pulled her ever closer before gradually we both fell into a deep sleep.
 
We picked the roses in silence. There was a certain way to pick them so the silence was mainly of cautiousness. Started to think if I would ever see my place again. It would be nice to get away from it, away from here. Only time will tell. He must have sense what I was thinking, suddenly he embraced tightly saying words that would have me smile again. He tried so hard to make me smile not letting me go till I did. Said something, and the look in his eyes made everything disappear, brining a smile to my lips.

I picked a few roses for myself. Just in case I was to never see my home again, I would have these to plant near my new home. These flowers were just to beautiful to resist wanting them.
Never even realized how the time had gone by, we must have gotten here alittle later than I expected. Realizing I had not slept in the past 24 hours didn't help either. Once we got to the cave which wasn't far, watching the sunrise breaking out of it's nightly cage. It was more beautiful than I had remembered it to be. It's been so long since I've seen that huge ball of flame.

Silent tears streamed down, remembering my clan clear as day. Thinking of how that flameing sun took their lives. After getting confortable, holding eachother for sleep, the tears were strong after hearing his words just before.
Sleep didn't come easy for me, it was pleasant, then awful visions would bring me out of it. Was like that for most the night. Well day. Finally after so much of it, woke slowly. Not wanting to wake him up at all. Watched him sleep for the longest time, looking so peaceful, content. Made me wonder if he was dreaming at all, if so what it was. Also wondered what his clan was like, if they were anything like him.

Long moments passed, eased myself from his arms. It was tuff at first, he rolled over making it alittle easier towards the end of my getting up quest. Sat there on my knees, watching his sleep again, mainly making sure he was sleeping. Kissed him on his eyelids, walked to the caves entrance watching the moutains contain the sun.

I must have slept for many hours as the sun was a long way through it's daily journey. My wings felt a little stiff but I thought I would be okay to fly again tonight. I looked for Kazuyal but she was not beside me, searching the dim light of the cave I saw her sat at the entrance, entranced by the sun.

I rose from my slumber and walked across the cave to kneel behind her, wrapping my wings around her. She started a little as I touched her, had obviously been lost to this world. I kissed her neck lightly, holding her tightly, wondering what she had been thinking about.

"The day grow's old my darling, soon we will need to depart."

She turned to look at me and told me that the sun was very stong this far north and that I must be patient. She explained that even whilst setting it could do great damage to a gargoyle's wings. I reluctantly agreed with her and drew her to me, promising to heed her words and wait for her to say when we leave.
 
Kazuyal~

Didn't even hear him wake up, just the sudden feel of his embrace. Tender kiss upon my neck and shoulder. startled me for a second not used to having such attention. LEaned back into him, against his chest relishing the feel of his wings wrap around me. Protecting me from any further harm, comforting me from all that I had endured. I was no longer alone.

"Yes m'love, the day does grow old. Still we can not leave. As long as there is still shadow on the ground, the sun is still dangerous. This journey is a long one. Least a nights travel. Mustn't be in a hurry for this one. We left too late to get here, we will leave right when the sun is fully caged."

I can tell he didn't like to wait, which is understandable for his situation. If the humans didn't put that curse, it would be safe to leave now when the sun isn't fully in the sky.
An hour went by before it was completly safe to take the skies. Making sure we were both ready, getting a small pack of some food and water. Kissed him deeply and passionate, then took flight.

"There is a place I call Cat's eye, it is about 7hrs from here, we will rest there for the following day. The villiage is about 4 hrs from there, but there is no place to shelter. "


Cats' eye is a cave that as far as I know, no-one knew about. I found it long ago as a kid on one of my adventures. Always went there when I wanted to get away or when I was in trouble. Not even my friends knew about. It was my cave. Buried deep in underbush next to the water. It was beautiful. I call it cats eye because the pools of water inside glows deep blue and in the shape of a cat eye. Was just like looking deep into the crystal orbs of a wild cat.

We took to the skies as soon as the sun's rays disappeared from the earth, swooping off further North again. Every mile we went north we knew that the sun held further danger and my mind was sharpening to the perils ahead. I had been naive to bring her with me and realised I should have made her draw me a map. She was so strong but I had had no right to request that she join me, with love as almost an emotional blackmail. I resolved to insist she stayed at this Cat's eye place while I took the final stage of our journey alone.

The flight was good, it was a beautiful night and the moon lit our way well. My wings felt strong now, almost as good as new and I was sure that I could cope with almost anything. About half way into our journey she indicated a small clearing and we stopped to eat, confortable in each others company. The second half of our flight also went smoothly and she soon began her descent. I followed her although would be happier when I was able to take the lead more.

The foliage was lusher here and at first I wondered where we could possibly land but she guided us expertly and I soon saw a small clearing. The passage was still a little difficult though and I was glad of the last two days of flight which helped me manouvre myself through the obsticles in our way. I spread my wings to stop myself as we touched down and stood looking around. This place really was inaccesable to anyone who could not take to the skies and I could understand why she would come here. It truly was beautiful and she appeared pleased to show me her special little hidey hole.
