The Dragon Queen

[JadeKnight]

He gave a little chuckle for a moment as he watched Cass and Betty start to head off on their own.

"Don't take too long."

Seeing the Glinda and Lilith left as well, he shook his head for a moment. He looked over at the fae for a moment with a little grin.

"I guess that leaves us to make dinner for everyone. You know how to cook, right?"

He laughed for a moment before giggling.

"I kid. I probably should dress for dinner as well, even if I am not really that hungry right now."

He did head off to the kitchen anyways, admiring the intricate woodwork that ran throughout the house. It had been many years since he was last in the manor. He knew about the demoness, wondering where she had gone to or if she had even left yet. Either way, he was more concerned about finding a way to get dinner ready. He created a simple blue dress on himself, just so he wouldn't be the only one naked. It didn't bother him.

As the group had entered the manor, Jahi landed softly behind them. She was carefully not to make any noise as she closed the door behind herself. She stayed back from the group as they split up, even though she wasn't going to be seen by them. She folded her wings against her back as she focused on Glinda.

There was a couple of times she had almost been seen by Glinda as she explored, moving like a little blur to get out of sight. When Glinda found her room, Jahi decided to make her claim. She snuck up behind the maid, a hand gripping lightly on each of her shoulders. She leaned forward, her breathe soft as she whispered teasingly.

"I see you foundt our little room. We'll have so much fun together."

She grinned before quickly kissing Glinda's cheek and then running her tongue along the maid's soft skin before pulling back a little, mming.

 

[Poprockz]

Sephir raised her eyebrow. "Well, I usually let the magic make what it wants, but if you change your mind and want to give it a try, I would be willing to see what the fuss is about." She laughed and took his arm, walking at his side as they made their way toward the kitchen. The fae also was impressed by how nice the manor was; she assumed it had many things about it that weren't apparent at first glass. What fun things were waiting within? Perhaps there were secrets expertly hidden in the heart of the place.

The blonde-haired beauty practically jumped out of her skin when she heard that unfamiliar voice. Even more disturbed by the slick tongue that slid across her cheek to sample her. She turned quickly and backed up, trying to put some space in between them. Her eyes soon found the demoness, widening as she took in the scantily-clad woman before her. How had she infiltrated the mansion and what did she want?

"What- who are you?! What are you doing here?! Don't touch me!" Glinda said harshly. Her eyes glared at the woman, moving so that a small little table was put in between herself and the unnamed lady.

 

[JadeKnight]

He raised an eyebrow as he walked into the kitchen with the fae.

"Magic to do the cooking? Normally I would just hunt and eat a wild deer raw. Though I don't think the ladies would care for raw meat."

He laughed for a moment before they stepped further into the kitchen. There was a large open fire pit with a metal grate that covering over the top of it, large enough to cook a cow whole. Various herbs and spices hung from the ceiling, along with carefully arranged pots and pans. Tritoch hmmed as he opened a door to the pantry, filled with all the food.

"What do you think everyone is in the mood for tonight?"

Jahi giggled as Glinda jumped away from her grasp, trying to use the small table for protection. Her hands rested lightly on the top of the table for a moment as she grinned.

"I am Jahi, but you can call me 'Mistress.' You are fiesty, just the way I like my new pets."

The demoness grinned as she licked her lips for a moment. Her tail whisked slowly back and forth behind her like a cat getting ready to pounce on it's prey. She stood for a couple moments longer before she suddenly leaped over the table as she pounced on the maid.

 

[Poprockz]

Sephir nodded and chuckled at his little joke, knowing that she personally would never eat raw meat like that. Perhaps rare meat, but never raw. It was simply a matter of preferring things cooked and seasoned.

"Yes, well I say "the magic" but what I mean is the kitchen. The utensils remember how to make things if you just give them a little reminder. I think they would really like cooked deer with gravy, potatoes, green beans, and carrots. They get so much "refined" food at the palace that they likely don't eat as much comfort food. It would be refreshing. You could hunt for the deer if you like, or would could use another type of meat." She walked over to one of the cabinets, looking at the pots and pans available.

Glinda continued to glare, "I'm no one's pet, Jahi. Now leave me alone before I go get- AH!" She fell backwards as the demoness leapt over the table and on top of her. She struggled, trying to push her off, but she was much stronger than she anticipated. The maid didn't like the way she looked at her, and wasn't going to simply lay idly by while the demoness did something to her.

 

[JadeKnight]

He laughed for a moment as she spoke, realizing what she had meant. He also agreed that they would probably like to have something that was cooked rather than raw. He had learned that humans tended to be picking on how they ate their meat, raw being enjoyed by only a select few.

"I could go and hunt, but that might take a little time. I think I will leave the hunting for tomorrow. That does sound like a wonderful meal for everyone to enjoy, so we can go with that."

Watching her look through the pots for a moment, his mind wondered to the demoness he knew had been living in the manor. It had been awhile since he had been in here, so he wasn't sure if she had left or was still hanging around. Shrugging for a moment, he went to the pantry and opened it. The pantry was well organized with hanging fresh meat, all variety of vegetables, spices, and other food stuff. He smiled for a moment spotting a deer carcass hanging up.

"Looks like I won't have to do any hurting."

Jehi giggled as she grabbed Glinda's wrists, holding them above the maid's head. She used her knees to pin the wiggling legs down on the floor. She peered down as she noticed Tritoch's tattoo on the side of the maid's neck. She could feel the power radiating from it, but it didn't deter her. She licked the side of Glinda's face once more before grinning.

"Oh oh, you are you going to tell on me? Some bid bad scary guy? I"m so scared."

 

[Poprockz]

Sephir looked up and noticed the deer. It looked as though it had been freshly killed and butchered. "Do you have a caretaker, Tritoch? If not, then I believe someone is squatting in your manor. Someone very tidy and considerate, I might add."

She waved her hand and several little blue specks came from her fingers. It looked like the embers that drift from fires, only these looked icy and blue. They seeped into the pots and pans, the kitchen starting to come to life as certain things floated and situated themselves to get ready to cook. Going to the fridge, she waved her hand again and the ingredients hopped out, the vegetables starting to wash themselves in the sink.

The fae leaned against the counter, supervising and making sure that none of the utensils or pots ended up being corrupted by mischievous spirits.

Glinda let out a gasp of indignation and struggled hard again after the lick to her cheek, panting and settling after a few moments. "You're talking about the King, so I would hold your tongue. He would be very upset if you did something to me or harmed me." She hated the way it felt to be pinned down with her hands up. It made her feel helpless and vulnerable, not being able to fight back.

 

[JadeKnight]

He did raise an eyebrow for a moment at her comment about someone living in the manor, but he just giggled for a moment.

"This place is magicaly made to kept everything fresh for as long as it is in here. Something freshly killed could be hung and left like this for thousands of years without going bad. There is just a limit to how much food can be stored in here. Usually it's just enough to be able to feed eight people for a couple of weeks before needing to be restocked."

When she began to use her magic to get the dinner going, he ducked out of the way to let her do her task. He did bring out the deer and lay it out on the countertop so that it could be prepared before taking a seat in one of the large, elegently carved chairs in the dining area.

Jehi blinked for a moment when the maid mentioned about a King, curious as to who that could be. She did shiver for a moment as she felt as if someone was talking about her. She grinned and licked Glinda's forehead teasingly before leaping off of her. She smiled and took up a sexy little pose at the door for a moment before grinning again.

"Perhaps you better take me to this King so he can punish me for being a bad demon."

She did wonder how the maid would react when she found out Glinda was probably the only one to see her.

 

[Poprockz]

"Hm, that is very resourceful magic. To sustain such a manor in such a way takes a great deal of magical energy. I suppose it's true what they say about dragons never running out of magic, stamina, or energy. She smirked and continued to watch the kitchen. It was almost like a dance, the knives chopping, the water boiling on the fire, the meat being chopped up and prepared. Sephir quite liked watching, finding it much more fun than actually doing the tasks herself.

Glinda glared after the lick, wondering why the demoness kept doing such distasteful things. The woman might find it fun, but it was most certainly not funny to her. Part of her worried that maybe the demoness was considering killing and eating her. That being said, she looked a bit confused when the demon hopped up and went to the door. Had her words really swayed her? That was a relief.

She stood up, feeling a bit more confident as she strode over to the door and opened it without glancing at the demon's sexy pose, walking through. The maid then gestured for her to follow. "I'll take you to him. Maybe if you apologize nicely he'll forgive you for stealing away into his manor and attacking me."

 

[JadeKnight]

He laughed for a moment at her little comment.

"Perhaps you will find out how much stamina dragons have soon enough. As far as the magic which runs this, I believe it draws upon older magic than mine. I could do something like this, but it would take a long time to get just right."

He winked playfully to her for a moment before looking to watch her magic at work. It was quite an interesting little show, watching the utensils and dishes move as if they were in a finely honed orchestra.

Jehi smiled sweetly for a moment as Glinda passed by her to lead the way. She did a little hmm for a moment before lifting a hand at the same level as Glinda's neck. A quick little wiggle of her fingers and a little black leather choker appeared around her slender neck. A fine golden linked leash extended from the choker to Jehi's right hand. It would also only be seen or felt by Glinda and the dragon.

"Don't worry sweetie, once I apologize to your King, this comes off."

She really didn't have any intentions of doing such a thing.

 

[Poprockz]

Glinda tried to get the collar off, but it didn't seem to have a strap to undo the choker. She finally had to simply leave it be, scowling as she haughtily continued down the hall toward the kitchen. "Your fun will be short lived, I can tell you that much. Where do you get off on collaring someone you just met? What is the point of that?" She shot a look at Jahi, thinking to herself that Tritoch could make short work of this rude demoness.

Soon they arrived at the kitchens, Sephir observing... the kitchen? Glinda had to stop and watch for a moment as the kitchen seemed almost alive. It was somewhat mesmerizing watching, but she had a task to complete. She quickly made her way over to Tritoch in his chair and stood before him.

"M'lord! There is a stowaway in your home and I might say that she is making herself quite unwelcome. She attacked me earlier, and I won't stand to be treated this way."

Sephir glanced over, but only saw Glinda. She figured the woman simply wanted to chat with the man, so she quietly eavesdropped.

 

[JadeKnight]

Jahi hummed softly as she followed after Glinda into the kitchen, a loose grip on the leash. She stopped humming as she stopped a few feet behind Glinda, giggling as she saw who the maid was talking to. Though he was shape-shifted as female human, she could tell by his powerful aura who he was. With Glinda's back to her, the demoness raised a finger to her lips to see if he would keep quiet.

Tritoch blinked as Glinda came running up to him in a huff like she did. It took him a moment to notice the leather choker around the maid's neck with the golden chain attached. His eyes roved along the chain till they saw who was holding it.

He noticed that Saphir didn't seem to question why a demoness was here, even though the fae was looking right at her. He gave a little smirk as she realized what the demoness was doing. When Glinda finished complaining, he gave a laugh.

"Intruder? There's been no one in here for ages. This place is magically protected and no one comes in without my say. Where is this intruder you speak of?"

He stood up from the chair, walking back and forth as he pretended to look for whoever she was trying to tell him about. Besides, he figured the demoness might have a little more fun with the maid than he was. Jahi mouthed Thank you to the dragon for a moment when Glinda wasn't looking.

 

[Poprockz]

Her expression became extremely confused as he seemed to look around the room and not find her. Sephir too hadn't seemed to notice when she looked over earlier, and now Glinda was starting to doubt herself. Reaching up, she put her hand on the leather choker and confirmed that it was really happening. There was no way a delusion would have a physical touch.

But then came the question as to why only she could see the demoness. Perhaps the woman was very powerful, even more so than Tritoch. That was hard to imagine, but it seemed like the only explanation. If she was so powerful though, why was she squatting in a random manor in a pocketed dimension?

"But she's- I-" The maid sputtered for a moment, looking at him in disbelief. After a moment of looking at each other, she realized he really didn't see her. At that moment, she shook her head and leaned on the other chair for a moment.

"Perhaps... I'm simply under the weather. I... feel a bit confused." She raised her hand to her forehead and glanced at Jahi, wondering what the hell was going on.

 

[JadeKnight]

Tritoch chuckled for a moment at Glinda's reaction. He decided he wouldn't let his queen know about what was going on, as she would probably get upset at the news of her maid getting toyed with by a demoness. He would make sure that no permanent harm or signs or abuse would be done by the demoness later. He stood up and moved to Glinda, playing one hand gently on her shoulder.

"Perhaps today has been an exhaustive one for you Glinda. Perhaps you should have a seat so you don't pass out."

He moved from her to the kitchen, looking for a couple of glasses. He motioned for a moment, a bottle of red wine flying to his hand. He popped the cork and filled two glasses, carrying them over to the table. He placed one in front of Glinda before sitting back down and sipping his.

"Have something to drink."

Jehi giggled for a moment at the whole show, enjoying the way things were playing out. She moved up behind Glinda, speaking softly.

"Yes, my pretty. Have a seat and gather your wits. It looks like I won't be apologizing to your 'King' now."

 

[Poprockz]

Glinda looked up at the hand on her shoulder, wanting to argue with him but realizing it was pointless. It was so frustrating since Jahi was literally right there in front of him, and yet she was the one who looked crazy.

She watched him fetch some wine, taking his suggestion and sitting down in the chair. The poor maid looked quite disoriented, her eyes looking a bit distant as her mind raced. When offered the glass of wine, she nodded and took it, her hand slightly shaky as she did so. "Thank you, m'lord..."

Taking the drink, she usually would have been more appreciative of the very pleasant taste of it, but now she simply needed something to calm her nerves. She drank quickly, but refrained from gulping it down. After all, she didn't want to come off as too unhinged. Her eyes traveled up to the grinning face of Jahi who was now leaning over her shoulder.

What was she supposed to do now? Wait for the demoness to eat her or take her as a slave? Surely Tritoch would notice if she went missing, but by then it would probably be too late. She flinched as Jahi spoke in her ear, looking down into her wine glass and taking a few more drinks before the glass was soon empty.

 

[JadeKnight]

Tritoch chuckled a little as he watch Glinda speed drink the wine. He could tell that the maid was trying to figure out the whole ordeal and how to deal with it all. He did wonder how long the demoness would play and use the maid, knowing he would keep an eye on the two of them.

"Easy now. There's no need to get drunk so quickly. Dinner should be ready soon."

Despite his words, he did lift the bottle up and refill her wine glass once more. Jahi smiled as she licked her lips for a moment, but she did pull back to give her toy some breathing room. She extended the length of the chain as she moved to sit her shapely ass on the far end of the table.

"Don't worry pet. As tasty as you are, I don't play on eating or killing you. It would be a waste of such beauty."

 

[Poprockz]

The fill-up of wine was appreciated, so she nodded absentmindedly at him. He was right though, perhaps she should at least try to keep her wits about her. Sipping a little bit of wine, she sat there and watched as Jahi sat her plump violet ass on the table. It was still astonishing to her that Tritoch didn's even sense her. A mighty dragon not being able to sense a mere demon seemed very odd, though she supposed that there were ways to trick a dragon, and there were likely entities out there more powerful than him too. Giants were said to rival dragons, and there were some powerful demons out there as well.

Glinda frowned. As if she was going to trust the word of a demon- that was just foolish. Besides, it wasn't like the demon would want her to think she was going to be eaten if that was what she was planning. In any case, she shook her head and didn't offer any words as response. If she started talking to someone who no one else could see, they would start to think she was insane.

"Yes, dinner should be ready as soon as the gravy is done and the vegetables are done roasting. So... about thirty minutes." She looked over the kitchen and seemed pleased with the food's progress so far. Maybe she ought to have the kitchen make dessert too, though maybe she would have to start that a little bit later.

 

[JadeKnight]

Tritoch hmmed for a moment as it was spoken of how long it would be till dinner was ready. Well, as much as he was enjoying watching food being made, he didn't want to just sit around.

"Well, if it is going to take so long, then perhaps I should go and check on the queen. Just to make sure she hasn't gotten herself lost."

He grinned for a moment before standing up. He paused for a moment to give Glinda a kiss on the top of her head before moving on. He did glanced towards the demoness for a moment as he passed her, but he didn't say anything.

Jahi just smiled back at the king before turning her attention to Glinda. She tapped a finger against her chin for a moment as she pondered a few ideas. She grins and claps her hands together for a moment.

"You need another tattoo. One that's a little prettier than the one you already have."

 

[Poprockz]

Glinda opened her mouth as Tritoch walked away, raising a hand before lowering it back down and pursing her lips. There wasn’t any point to asking him to help when he himself couldn’t see the provocative woman sitting on the table.

Her gaze snapped over to said demoness when she suggested another tattoo. At first, Glinda hadn’t noticed the tattoo Tritoch had bestowed upon her, but one could only go so long before seeing it. She had been upset, cursing the man for blemishing her in this way without her approval. Most ladies didn’t have tattoos, especially ones so visible as hers on the right side of her neck.

“I do not need a new tattoo!”

“Hm? What was that?” Sephor looked over curiously, still unable to see Jahi.

Glinda looked over and thought quickly of a cover-up response. “I said it smells like really good food.”

Sephora smiled and nodded, “thank you! I expect it to taste just as good.”

The maid smiled politely and then shot an irritated look at Jahi again. With that, she set her wine down and got up, turning and heading toward the hall, the slack in the gold chain becoming less and less.

 

[JadeKnight]

Jahi just grinned at Glinda's outburst, not saying a word. It would be fun to drive the maid crazy and see how she can be bent. She turned her attention back to the magical created dinner, not paying attention as Glinda moved out of the dining hall. She had plenty of length to make it out of the dining area and a ways down the hallway.

Jahi really didn't notice the slack being taken up until her hand was pulled forward. She eeped for a moment before giving it a little jerk. It would probably choke Glinda for however long it would take her to realize what had happened. She slid off of the table and giggled as she followed out after the poor maid.

"You really should be more aware of your surroundings my pretty."

She did do a little frown as she looked at the plain dress the maid was wearing. She shook her head for a moment.

"We need to find a more suitable dress for you to enjoy your dinner in."

 

[Poprockz]

Glinda had been huffing and quickly retreating down the hall when her neck was jerked. She had forgotten that there was a gold chain tethering her to Jahi, the demon who had decided for some reason that Glinda would be fun to annoy. The maid paused and coughed for a moment, rubbing her throat before looking over her shoulder at the approaching demon.

She was quiet for a moment after Jahi spoke before responding, "I don't have to do anything, and I think my dress is perfectly fine. I wore it to the funeral earlier, so it should be alright. It's neither ripped nor damaged, so I don't see any reason to replace it."

To be perfectly honest, Glinda agreed in a sense that she should probably change. A black dress at dinner would be a bit gloomy, but she wasn't going to be let herself be in a private room with her if she could help it. That was just a recipe for things to go awry, especially since she wasn't entirely sure what the demon wanted yet, other than to get on her nerves and enjoy the idea of "owning" Glinda. The maid didn't yet recognize that her interest was of a more sexual nature. All she knew was that the woman so far behaved more like a child, licking faces and pulling chains.

 

[JadeKnight]

Jehi made a face for a moment when Glinda mentioned that she had been at a funeral earlier that day.

"Eww, dreadful affairs. Who died? Oh, never mind. Wearing clothes that went to a funeral and then to a fancy dinner, such horrid tastes."

She tapped hmmed for a moment, tapping her chin with a long nail for a moment before smiling.

"I know, we need you in something much cheerier now. Come on."

She proceeded to walk past Glinda, a smile on her face. She made her way back towards her room, giving a tug on the maid's collar so that she would followed. She did glance back for a couple times, just to make sure the young woman was following. She didn't make any comments as she did feel the leash become taut a couple of times as the maid seemed to be stubborn a bit.

 

[Poprockz]

Indeed Glinda did stubbornly drag her heels on the way to the room, trying at the very least to delay their progress and take up time so that there would be less time for the demon to pull anything once they were alone. It was frustrating being made to accompany her and change outfits, but she had little choice since she was collared and the demon was stronger than she was.

They soon reached that room once more, though Glinda hovered near the door rather than walking much further in. She had a frown on her face and just knew that the demon was going to try to tease her or mess with her. It was even possible that she was going to take the chance to abduct her. The woman crossed her arms, refusing to look at Jahi as the demon presumably headed toward the closet. The dresses in there had to be old and moldy, so she was hoping she wouldn't find anything suitable.

In avoiding Jahi's gaze, her own was cast at a dresser nearby, her eyes widening slightly as she saw a set of lingerie complete with a garter belt and stockings. It was akin to what a prostitute would wear in a brothel, and she wondered to herself if the demon often wore such distasteful things. She quickly looked away, looking at the little table in the room instead.

 

[JadeKnight]

Jehi didn't notice that Glinda had looked at the lingerie, her attention focused on the closet of dresses. She hmmed as she shifted through the dresses, pausing every now and then on one. She finally stopped, pulling out two different dresses. The chain shifted from her grip as well, wrapping around her slender left wrist.

"I found two that would be more suitable for your dinner, I am quite sure. You don't get to see them, but you will have to state either right or left."

She hand the dresses folded gently over her arms in front of her. Her right hand held one, while her left held the other. They were folded over so that she would be able to see the colors for the dress, but not the style yet.

"And which ever one you pick, you will have to wear or go naked."

She did grin at that, wondering what the reaction was going to be.

 

[Poprockz]

Glinda pursed her lips and looked at the fabrics. Based on what she could see, the green seemed to be a somewhat gaudy dress, one that she typically wouldn't wear. As for the pink, it seemed as though it would be the more conservative dress. It was ridiculous that the demon was threatening to have her go naked. But... the demon was unpredictable, if Glinda wasn't careful she might actually make good on her promise.

Crossing her arms, her eyes went back up to Jahi before she approached. The maid grabbed the pink one out of her hands and glared at her, "If I'm being forced to chose, then I prefer the pink one. Give me just a few minutes and don't try any pranks on me or I'll be very cross."

With that, she walked over to a corner of the room to a privacy partition, unzipping her dress and shimmying out of it. Standing just in her panties, she took the dress and actually looked at, noticing that there seemed to be a large hole in the chest region.

"Jahi, this dress is torn around the torso, why would you offer me such a dress?"

 

[JadeKnight]

Jehi gave a little smile for a moment, liking whatever choice the maid decided to make. After the maid grabbed the pink one, the demoness turned around and put the second one back into the closet. She pouted a bit when she heard Glinda ask that no prank happen to her. That just might the tattoo would have to wait till later.

"You take all the fun out of things pet."

She sighed and sat on top of the little table as she waited on the maid to get dressed. She raised an eyebrow for a moment at the complaint about the design of it.

"It's not torn or anything like that. That was the way it is supposed to be worn. Just deal with it."

She grinned once more.

"Besides, you made the choice."
