Author's note: It's another lengthy one, folks, but bear with me please. We will get to the interesting bits soon. Very soon.
This was a most welcomed change after all the troubles I've been through since we.. no, I decided to fly towards this location, and only the thought that I have you by my side until this savage storm passes makes me feel overjoyed. In the end, the difficulties we faced to be here in this exact moment, doing what we did earlier, paid off, said the dragoness as her licking came to a stop, only to be replaced by a soft, loving nuzzling of her mate's cheek.
I agree with you, my mate. Although I took some unnecessary risks when I decided to hunt for us in such harsh conditions, I am glad that nothing bad came out of it. Now, that I look back towards that moment, I realize that I could have been in serious trouble should the winds accelerate their speed, replied the blue dragon, relaxing himself in his mate's display of love.
Rokora let out a short growl of aggression and gently nipped at the blue dragon's sensitive neck, causing him to wake up from his enjoyable resting state with a loud yelp.
It's perfect that you realize how much you could have risked when the need for food was not dire. I would have had to remain here, alone, waiting for you until this storm would pass, and being alone in a moment like this is not something I want to experience. There is a reason you are my mate, Serkath, and such you shouldn't be separated from me for more than it's necessary, answered the golden dragoness with an edge of worry in her voice as she licked his cheek lovingly.
No words came from Serkath as he turned his eyes away from his mate, interrupting the contact between them and bowing his head in shame. I apologize for disappointing you like I did, my mate. I guess I let my feelings cloud my rationality when I took the decision of going hunting. Although I knew that there are some risks involved, the only thought I had in mind was to fulfil my duty as your mate and keep you well feed, no matter the circumstances.
Serkath's words deeply touched Rokora, who let out a saddened growl despite the cheerful atmosphere that was created around them after they have mated. Silly me, what was I doing, scolding my mate after we just mated? Its true that I want him to stop putting his safety at risk when I'm in need of something, but I have an eternity to tell him that, thought Rokora with regret as her sparkling golden eyes were fixed on her mate.
Don't blame yourself for what you did, Serkath. What happened has happened, and it's best to put it behind. There will be another occasion when we will discuss about this, but for the time being lets not spoil the moments of joy we shared together since you came back safely and with two fat deer that will provide us with nutrients, said Rokora soothingly as she stretched her neck towards her mate, nuzzling his cheek lovingly.
The blue dragon couldn't help but release a loud, loving growl at the contact with the dragoness's warm snout. I can find no words to describe how grateful I am for your understanding and the unbridled love and care you show towards me. Maybe I sometimes do reckless decisions and go too far to please you, but a fine female such as you deserves way more than that.
Rokora barely had time to think of a reply as the blue dragon darted his head and licked her snout with a long, passionate lick before he turned his attention towards her neck.
The female hummed in delight as her mate's warm tongue made contact with the scales on her neck.
I feel quite the same about you, my mate, but rest assured that I won't work you up too hard. My demands are not as harsh as you may think, and so far you haven't let me down, she said slyly, her thoughts drifting to the earlier mating.
Serkath appeared not to understand the meaning of what she said as he continued to lick her neck, his snout going up and down with each delicate tongue stroke.
Displeased with her mate's sluggishness, the golden female lowered her head and with a hard poke of her snout she pushed her mate's head. The dragon growled lightly at the sudden interruption and looked towards his mate questioningly.
I was referring to our earlier mating, Serkath, and by the looks of it you didn't catch any hint of what I thought in that moment, she said sharply, trying to appear as imposing as she could be in front of her mate.
Not surprisingly, Serkath saw through the mask she was putting up and let out a light growl before he gave her a quick lick on her snout. Maybe I did not understand the meaning of your words, but that does not mean that I wasn't thinking about the same thing, my mate, replied the blue dragon, causing Rokora to growl lovingly in return.
You don't cease to surprise me, Serkath, even when I think I know you better than I know my own son. Still, what we did together was truly unique, and we have to do that again, and soon.
Serkath pressed his snout against the female's forehead, nuzzling it gently. You got me cornered, my mate. You know it's hard to resist mating with such a beautiful dragoness such as you, least when you're tempting me.
Rokora growled in delight as she moved her head past her mate's snout and nuzzled his neck. The lone thought of yet another mating with her loved one almost made her scales ruffle in delight.
That's exactly what I would expect from my mate, Serkath, but know that it's not only you that desires to mate when the opportunity presents itself. Sometimes, even looking at your dazzling blue scales and your pristine white claws and at the impressive form of your bulk makes me crave for that something. You males always think that it's the female that attracts and entices the male do initiate the mating ritual, but sometimes it's the other way around, she said tauntingly as she looked intently at one particular scale on the male's neck that seemed to be more clean and lustrous than the others.
Serkath growled in happiness, both at the compliment of his blue, sparkling hide and the soft rubbing motion his mate applied with her snout.
I can find no equivalent in mere words to describe the honor your words bestowed upon me. It's truly something unique to know that my own mate, whose life I treasure more than my own, thinks so highly of my physical attributes, he said solemnly as he cast a quick gaze to inspect the beautiful-yet-resistant-sparkling-blue-scales that covered his body, looking particulary at the ones that adorned the side of his body.
I am truly content that you took that compliment to the heart, but I didn't say it with the intention to boost your sense of pride, my mate, she said on a slight harsh tone, her tail tip brushing against the male's flank.
The female obtained the desired reaction from her mate as the blue dragon quickly turned his large horned head, his sparkling blue eyes staring into hers.
I apologize if you interpreted what I did differently, for it was not pride but curiosity that made me inspect the scales you admire so much, added the blue dragon.
Rokora prepared to reply when the stream of her thoughts was cut by the mental voice of his mate.
However, that's enough about the scales. What I wanted to say before this discussion took another turn was that the female plays a large role when it comes to the mating ritual. You probably don't know this, but the scent a female releases from her genital area when she's ready to mate is almost irresistible to a male dragon, with the mating season only amplyfing this effect, said Serkath on a loving, yet serious voice as he kept staring at the golden dragoness.
Rokora released a dim growling sound as something stirred near the back of her body. Although her mate was staring into her eyes, his mind was thinking of other things as the lower end of the male's tail snaked its way towards the part where her tail started.
The blue dragon's flexible tail almost reached her haunches before the golden female put an end to his plans by placing her tail on top of his, pinning it.
A low, deep growl came from the blue dragon when she did that, but she paid no attention to it as she thought of a fitting reply.
That is truly one of the most crafty excuses you came with to augment your repliesedit. How would a female's scent be more different than a male's during the mating season? If you are right, then how comes I haven't noticed any change when we first mated., just when the season started? She asked, licking her mate's snout teasingly. Although the female knew very well of what was her mate talking about, she decided to put him to a little test for entertainment purposes.
The blue dragon turned his head slightly and snorted a puff of smoke before he resumed the eye contact with his mate.
I was not saying that a female's scent is more different than a male's, be it in intensity or alta chestie. You are well aware that every being that lives on this land has a unique scent that differentiates it from the other individuals of its species, and dragons make no exception.
The blue dragon stopped for a bit, his nostrils twitching as he sniffed the air.
What I wanted to say was that there are certain elements present in a female's scent that are meant to entice a male dragon. It's nothing new that a dragon's body, be it male or female, goes through different kind of changes when the mating season is about to start. The female's reproductive glands begin to secret a more significant quantity of a special substance that makes the males feel more aroused in the presence of a female. Something similar also happens in the case of a male, who will feel more encouraged in actively pursue a mate if he's alone, or mate with the female if he already spent some time in her presence and deems her fit to make a good mother, concluded the blue dragon as he sneaked his head towards the female's neck, rubbing against lovingly.
Rokora growled in pleasure at the affection showed towards her, but out of a sudden she sifted her body, detatching herself from the pleasant rubbing of her mate.
You're very perceptive about anything that concerns the mating season, my mate. I am ashamed to admit that your knowledge on this particular subject is more refined than mine, but I found no suitable explanation for my initial question, said the female teasingly, placing her head on the ground.
A low growl of frustration escaped from the blue dragon's throat, making Rokora suppress a small flame that escaped her maw as she restrained herself from nu laughing please, da ceva asemanator
You are quite difficult sometimes, but that's also one of the reasons why I think my life would be senseless without you, my mate. Now, to finish what you started, I cannot possibly know how you felt during the mating season since I am male, but I am positive that something did happen.
A loud thunder that revebrated through the land stopped the blue dragon, who shuddered at the unusual sound. Rokora was also alerted by the sudden noise, but she kept her composure, eager to see what her mate has to say.
The blue dragon, sensing that something is about to happen soon, cuddled next to his mate mai tre putin expanded si editat: pozitia lor, cum erau inainte, dak rokora protesta etc.
It was early spring when I experienced this mating season on my own, and you know it very well since we were inseparable back in those times. It's quite hard to describe how it happened or what I exactly felt, but after a few more light-and-dark cycles several slight changes began to happen. First, I suddenly felt like I had way more energy than I did in the past, and this restless attitude only prepared me for what was to come next. You remember how I, out of a sudden, became more playful and interested in you? It's true that you acted quite strange yourself, but I didn't mind that as I enjoyed playing and hunting together.
The blue dragon suddenly stopped as he looked into the fiery eyes of the golden dragoness.
Are you sure you want me to tell you all of this? You know as well as I do what happened during the mating season and the outcome of what we did.
The dragoness snarled slightly. It doesn't bother me at all. Do continue, for this is most interesting to know how my young mate felt at that time.
Serkath licked her forehead and laid his head next to hers. I will do as you wish, and I will not hide anything from you, even if I should, said the blue dragon cunningly but he was brought to silence by a hard prod from the female's snout.
Growling slightly at the contact, the male continued, those were some of the most memorable experiences I went through, and this sudden interest in you slowly turned to something else. Another change happened that I did not notice it right from the start as I needed time to adjust to it, but your scent became more enticing with each passing moment. It was like an inexistent rope that kept me close to you, since every time I went hunting on my own I craved for you and the scent you emitted. And that was not the end of it. It gradually built up in power, and I soon found myself unable to be away from you for more than a few moments. Everything we did we did together, but I didn't regret any of it.
The dragoness looked expectantly at the male as he stopped for a short while. Growling with eagerness, she urged him to continue.
Serkath agreed.
These weird changes that occurred and partially changed the way I behaved seemed to stop there, until a few more dark-light cycles passed. In one such moment, I woke up beside you with a strong desire to do what the male of a species is supposed to do to perpetuate its species. Without opposing those sudden urges, I slowly made my way behind your curled body like I was guided by an invisible force. When I was behind you, I couldn't help but inhale the copious amount of scent that permeated the air. Then, something that I didn't even expect happened, for this… the dragon suddenly stopped as a forked lightning brazed the sky, illuminating the dark landscape and revealing the heavy mass of clouds that was gathering above.
The gusts of wind seemed to get stronger as the power of the storm slowly increased like it prepared itself to strike down with all its might. Three long, cobalt lightning flashes appeared to split the sky into pieces as they appeared in a short succession one after another. The two dragons further cuddled into one another, feeling the need of protection in the harsh weather conditions that began to show their true potential. An earsplitting thunder wracked the land, reverberating through the earth like a small mountain that collapsed before the might of the elements. The dragons roared loudly as they curled together and used their wings as a measure to shield themselves from the upcoming dangers., but they were anything but safe.
The harsh wind that savaged its way through the land constantly brought debris from the ground which constantly impacted with the bodies of the two dragons, with the trees bowing before its might. Some of the younger trees seemed to lose their ability to stand their ground as the wind bended them to such extent that they appeared ready to collapse and fall on the ground.
A few cracks could be heard in the vicinity as some of the branches couldn't whistand the harsh conditions of the fierce storm. Alarmed that she might be the target of a loose branch, Rokora removed her head from under her wing and inspected her surroundings. The ground was littered with fallen pine needles and young pine cones by the strong wind, giving the appearance that they had a life of their own as they moved erratically on the ground. Fortunately, there were no big changes in the vicinity of the two dragons such as fallen branches, being a sign that they chose a fit location to relax. The thick branches of the large fir trees that were located above the two dragon's heads seemed to resist just fine against the weather, although they didn't come out unscathed from this conflict. A few emerald needles have been stripped from some of the thin branches and a part of the cones have dropped to the ground before their time was right due to the unforgiving force that manifested its strength.
Growling with apprehension, the golden dragoness removed her stare from the branches located above her and poked her head under the golden and blue wings, with the golden one being on top. An unusual feeling of safety soothed the female as she dipped her head in the warm and protective environment created by the wings of the two dragons. She gently nuzzled the snout of his mate, whose head and a part of his neck was hiding in the temporary shelter they created.
I looked around and I could see no possible dangers that could cause any harm to us. We chose this area quite well, as the trees are strong and they offer a certain degree of protection against the wind and the water drops, should they begin to fall down from the sky.
The blue dragon emitted a dim growling sound and closed his eyes, I cannot say I am content with all these disturbances that distract me from what I have to say, but I will continue, for we have nothing better to do in this moment, he added calmly.
Rokora gently placed her head on the ground somewhere next to her mate, eager to learn more of what her mate had to say.
Like that moment couldn't be weirder than it already got, you shifted your body and your tail, exposing a certain region that stirred my interest. Feeling more encouraged me, I sneaked my snout somewhere near your lower belly as I felt more encouraged to do the only thing I had in my mind in that moment. A couple of moments later and my expectations were confirmed as a wave of your scent hit me, making my body shiver in response. With a savage lust for mating you that took over my senses, I had no time to think If what I'm doing is right as I clumsily moved forward in an attempt at mounting you from behind.
The dragoness barely suppressed snorting a puff of smoke in surprise when her mate revealed what he truly wanted to do to her.
Is that so, my mate? Do you really wanted to mount me while I was sleeping? She added teasingly, obtaining a growl of protest from her mate.
I don't know what got me in that moment, my mate, but believe me when I say that I was confused as well. It was my first mating season and such I had little knowledge of what was going to happen.
The dragoness acknowledged with a dim growl and waited for her mate to continue.
Serkath, seeing that his mate didn't plan to reply, continued what he had to say.
I slowly made my way to the upper parts of your body as I placed my own body correspondingly above yours, ready to start what I lusted for to do in that moment without thinking of the eventual consequences, if they would happen. I slowly lowered my hind legs to facilitate the start of the mating, but right when I was about to start you shifted yet again, putting an end to my irrational plan. Panic overwhelmed me as I suddenly thought what I was about to do without your consent and I removed myself from you, feelings of guilt prodding at my consciousness, said the blue dragon calmly, keeping his composure despite the nature of the information he just revealed to his mate.
Rokora noticed that his mate was feeling a bit uneasy, despite the mask of seriousness and calmness he put up. She found out that he probably expected her to react more differently in response to what he just revealed.
But, instead of attacking at her mate and accusing him for doing what he did when she was unaware of her surroundings, the dragoness moved her snout closer to his and gently licked him on his forehead.
There is no reason for you to feel guilty or uneasy for what you did, Serkath. Your actions and desires were completely justified as the mating season was upon us. These things were bound to happen sooner or later, in one form or another. Know this, that if you did decide to mate me in that moment, chances are that I wouldn't ward you off, but encourage you to proceed, she added lovingly as she laid her head next to his.
Serkath hummed in delight and continued with what he had to say, deciding that it would be best to keep the comments for later.
Without waking you up, I took off to the skies in an attempt to clear my thoughts and reflect on what exactly happened back there. Know this, Rokora, that even if the mating season has a strong grip on us and makes it almost impossible to refuse to mate with a dragon of the opposite species, we can still suppress our urges, like I did with mine. Although it's incredibly hard to oppose this when your instincts and feelings tell you otherwise, it is possible, probably because nature has it that two dragons must deem the other dragon as a fit mate before mating.
Rokora growled in acknowledgement and waited for her mate to continue.
My mind was still a bit blurry from what transpired back in the cave, but as I got farther away from your location and breathed in the fresh air I realized that I could think clearer. I realized back then that one of the most important factors that contributed to how I behaved was your enticing scent. However, my urges haven't vanished, and they compelled me to go back to you, which I did. I got back to your cave and gently woke you up, without mentioning anything of what happened before this, he finished, exhaling loudly.
Serkath, you should have told me what you experienced in that moment as I would have definitely helped you to go through these most awkward moments, she said teasingly as her tail swished from side to side, brushing against her mate's every so often.
Out of a sudden, a dripping sound of a liquid falling on something solid caught the attention of the two dragons, the female especially as she lifted her head from under her wing. A cold water droplet splashed on her snout at the impact with the hard, lustrous golden scales. Growling in frustration, she quickly hid her head under her protective wing.
Getting a moment of peace is quite a challenge during a storm like this. First, there is the wind that annoys me to a great extent, then there are those sudden bangs that alert me everytime they happen, and now there are these tiny drops of water that fall down from the sky. What will happen next? Growled Rokora with frustration as she laid her head down.
Serkath twitched his tail as a particular drop of water fell on its tip, making Rokora twitch her own in the process.
It's not something that I wished for in a moment like this, but it cannot be helped. All we could do is wait until it stops, which is not one of the brightest prospects, but at least I have you to keep me company, said the blue dragon as he looked at her with one sparkling blue eye.
That is true, my mate, but don't let me, nor this rain, keep you from finishing what you had to say before these pesky interruptions, added the dragoness with a hint of curiosity in her voice.
The blue dragon agreed with her and continued reminiscing about his past.
Every moment spent after that was quite a challenge as I couldn't think of anything beside mating you, even if I didn't really knew from where to start. I tried to wait for you to make the first move and even ask you about it, but I was too young and too fearful of asking such a direct and important question. Back then, I believed that you were not ready to mate, and I was completely wrong since the different clues and signs were pointing quite the opposite of what I believed.
Rokora let out a dim growl, slightly amused of Serkath's indecision, It is hard for me to believe that such a selfless and brave male such as you had troubles in finding a way to mate me. Serkath, you silly male, if you only were a bit more brave and decided to interpret the situation differently than you did, it would have been much easier for you to turn your dreams into reality. Didn't you think for a short while that there was a reason of why you felt like that?
The blue dragon thought for a short while before giving an answer.
I thought about different ways to approach you, but none of them seemed fit at that time. Understand that I cared deeply about you, and I didn't want to do anything foolish that would make you reconsider the choice of a mate. Disappointing you was the least thing I wanted to do, he said and moved his snout closer to Rokora's.
Rokora quickly licked he snout of her mate, deeply impressed by what he said. Serkath, I knew that you cared about me, but I did not know the true extent of your feelings for me. And back then we haven't spend a lot of time together, so we didn't care so much about each other as we do now. But you… , she paused, losing her words. I can find no way at the moment to say how proud I am to have such a fine mate, so continue with what you have to say, she added mischievously.
A dim sound, which was increasing in power with each moment began to fill the tumultuous atmosphere as the rain droplets assaulted the forest bellow.
The two dragons didn't seem affected as the droplets, which increased in numbers, dropped on their scaled hides, splashing at the contact with the hard surface. Water seemed like it couldn't affect any part of a dragon's body as the two mates appeared to be sleeping peacefullt, cuddled next to each other. However, the weather was going to prove them wrong.
The harsh wind, which alternatively increased and dimmed in intensity, accelerated the speed with which the water droplets fell, making their mass seem larger than usual and their shape sharper. Augmented by the effects the wind had on them, the droplets splashed against the delicate membrane of the dragon wings relentlessly, making it seem like a merciless rain of ice shards.
It gradually became more and more hard to fight against my instincts and the strong desires they pressed upon me. While I could control myself up to a certain point during the day, distracting myself with different activities to do with you, the nights lost their serenity and peacefulness as my rest was taken away by my urge to mate. Before of this, I was delighted to sleep beside you and share the warmth of your body, but now it turned into an excruciating ordeal in trying to suppress my dire sexual needs.
This is not something you shouldn't take seriously, my mate. Although it may sound quite amusing to you, I was put in a really difficult situation with no easy way out. Falling asleep was a most difficult challenge when I slept beside the one I could mate in that exact moment, something which my instincts urged me to do. In some of the occasions I was craving so much to fulfil my desires that I slowly removed myself from your warm embrace, so I could move near your hind quarters. When I got there, I wasted no time in dipping my snout in a certain region to inhale the sweet scent that permeated the area. That was quite a mistake on my part for I slowly started to lose control as I began to lose myself in the unbridled lust this smell induced. Finding myself more aroused and encouraged to advance towards the next step, I couldn't help but lick that area a couple of times. It wasn't just the smell, but also a strange substance that oozed from that area that made me go wild with lust. Finding myself unable to stop myself from licking that irresistible substance, I cleaned every trace of it that got on your beautiful golden scales. It took all my willpower to suppress a roar of lust as I suddenly lost myself in the frenzy of pre-mating.
Maybe you are right and I should do it right in that moment, but the only thing I was afraid off was that you may find this revolting, to wake up with a dragon in heat above you, eager to get the things started. To escape the strong grip of my instincts, my desires and the pleasant aroma that meddled with my senses, I quickly bit my foreleg hard enough to draw blood. It took a lot of concentration not to growl in pain, but I found that to be easier than not mating you. You must understand, my mate, that my mind was focused only on one thing at that time, and I couldn't be more grateful when , even for just a small moment, I thought about this plan of stopping what I was about to start.
Limping on my foreleg, I slowly made my way towards the side of your bulk and laid down slowly so I won't wake you up. I don't know why, but an immeasurable feeling of frustration seeped into my being the moment I abandoned my plan to mate you. I felt like I could destroy the cave completely and level the entire forest due to the inexplicable rage and the frustration I felt in that particular moment. Scared and without knowing why I felt the way I did, I shut my eyes and tried to put my tumultuous feelings in order. It didn't work the way I wanted it to, but as I opened my eyes and looked at the dragoness that was peacefully sleeping beside me, a feeling of calmness slowly washed over me and I was finally able to drift to sleep.
Events continued to repeat themselves, a vicious cycle of lust and frustrations that only made this situation harder and harder until, one nigh you left me alone so you could go hunting. I was patiently waiting for your return, all while trying to think what I would do when you would come back. As before, the same thoughts kept playing in my mind, accompanied by the lust and crave your dim scent caused. My whole being screamed for me to go and mate you right in that moment as I felt I couldn't resist these urges anymore, but instead I focused my attention elsewhere as I began mauling and breaking a large tree. I unleashed my whole fury and frustration on that tree that nothing remained of it shortly after except little fragments and splinters which were spread all over the place.
I began to think that I am in control again as those urges seemed to diminish a bit, allowing place for other thoughts rather than the ones that constantly occupied my mind and the worries I had to cope up with. In my foolishness, I believed this to be something too weird and inexplicable and I even thought of flying away, but the thought simply disgusted me. I couldn't leave my precious mate alone, even if I would have to face countless proto-dragons to remain by your side. So I simply awaited your return, thinking about what would happen when you will arrive.
Unfortunately for me, it didn't take you a long while to return, something which I would sense as your scent increased in intensity. As expected, the urges returned and in the back of my mind I knew that it would be a much uninspired choice in unleashing my fury on the environment to distract myself, so I moved towards you. Every step I took increased the lust I felt for you and your warm body tenfold, and I even wanted to back down, but I couldn't. Coming to a consent that from now on it was impossible for me to restrain my raging urges, I surrendered myself to the pressing instincts that told me only one thing: to mate, and do it in that exact moment.
Abandoning all my rational thoughts, I embraced my instinctual side as I quickly neared you and showed no restraints in expressing my tumultuous feelings and fiery passion that build up until that moment. After a most pleasing moment in licking and nuzzling you, I turned my attention to something that would finally satisfy my urgent needs. With alacrity, I darted my snout past your front legs ( femela state ape haunches) and sniffed and licked wildly at your lower belly, where the source of the scent resided. Encouraged by the powerful scent, and with no visible objection coming from you, I wasted no time in retracting my snout and instinctively push you on your belly. You complied with my actions, but I was not done yet. Feeling encouraged that you accepted all my advances, I didn't hold down in finally doing what I've been thinking off for the past few light-dark cycles. With unbridled lust and courage? for what would happen next, I finally positioned my body correspondingly and then, without restraints, entered you.
That was all about it, my mate. I wasn't very gentle when I pushed you on your side the way I did, but I quite lost the control of my actions. We males become encouraged with each passing moment to mate with a female when she's receptive and in the mating season, but it's also your scent that is a big part of all this cycle. So tell me, how did this happen from your point of view?
More or less the same, Rokora added and lowered her head on her paws. Sleep tugged at her senses, and she did nothing to resist it.
