Chapter 7- Year Four, Eighth Moon part 3
Sarah and Jareth were already seated by the time Toby arrived in the formal dinning hall. Despite the room they were in, both adults were dressed semi-casually. Jareth was wearing dark tan breeches, black, knee-high black leather boots, a light green silk shirt with embroidery on the cuffs and collar and dark brown vest with black trim going up the middle and on the sides. Sarah was wearing a simple forest green soft cotton dress with loose flowing sleeves from the elbow on down and a full skirt that would prettily swirl around her legs when she moved. A shimmering dark silver gauze belt was belted around her waist loosely, the swell of her hips the only thing that was keeping it from falling to the floor. The subtle touches on their clothing only enhanced the feeling of timelessness and wisdom from the couple.
Sarah looked magnificent in her simple finery, and judging by the frequent glances at her that Jareth kept on stealing, it was obvious that the Goblin King found her to be quite pleasantly distracting. Toby rolled his eyes, the Goblin King might be a grown-up but when his sister was around, Jareth became a moon-struck (literally), bumbling adolescent again.
"Ah Tobias. How nice of you to finally join us," Jareth called out when he spotted the prince lingering in the doorway.
"Oh give the kid a break Jareth," Sarah chided, "the guests aren't even here yet."
"Speaking of your guests, when can we expect them to arrive?" Jareth smoothly shifted his attention to his lover.
"Oh, they should be here anytime now," Sarah replied smiling.
Then Jareth heard the most wonderful sound. It was the most heavenly, enchanting and lovely thing he had ever heard. It was like liquid honey and ambrosia, it was pure music, it was... cursing?
"Oh goddess no," Jareth groaned in sudden understanding, "please tell me that it isn't who I think it is."
"Okay, I won't," Sarah smirked.
Helexa chose that moment to make her grand arrival. The harpy-siren hybrid glided into the dinning room in full-rant mode with a crowd of drooling males of several races trailing behind her. The halfling stopped her complaining when she caught sight of Sarah. Her dark amethyst eyes lit up and she swept over and swooped the Moon Child up into a hug.
"Oh Sarah, it has been far too long," Helexa fondly greeted, her now low, raspy voice at odds with the woman's stunning, exotic features.
With her blue-black hair that hung down below her waist, her dark amethyst eyes, fully-endowed figure, dark olive skin, and iridescent blue-green wings, the exotic beauty drew eyes to her figure wherever she went. To add to her allure, the siren-harpy also had fine, blue-tinged scales at her temples, in the hollow of her throat and along her collar bone. Her full smile revealed, sharp, needle-like teeth that pointed to a diet of mainly fish.
"Where is the rest of your band," Sarah asked looking back at the empty doorway.
"Cretan discovered a hidden bottle of whiskey in the rooms we were staying in and took it upon himself to drink the entire bottle," Helexa snorted, "the others are still trying to herd him up to the dinning hall."
Great, Jareth thought grimacing, only a day into their stay and the dwarf has already gotten into the alcohol. I pray that the evening passes quickly.
As if summoned by Jareth's thoughts, the dwarf came stomping into the room, the rest of his companions following closely behind. Cretan dropped himself into a chair and bellowed for some ale. Toby was trying to contain his laughter at the Goblin King's reaction to Sarah's old "friends".
The odd, child-like creature sat down between Toby and the dwarf, merrily chatting away. The tall, lanky goblin twins sat down next to Helexa who was sitting on Sarah's left. Jareth was at the head of the table with Sarah on his left and Toby to the right. The blond king sent a murderous glare at his lover before allowing a pleasant expression slide onto his face.
"My, it has been quite sometime since we last dinned," Jareth causally mentioned.
No one was fooled by the Goblin King's genial tone, it was common knowledge to all sitting at the table (with the exception of Toby who sat there confused by the undercurrents running between Jareth and Sarah's guests) that the last meeting between Jareth and the mismatched band of treasure hunters had ended in less than pleasant terms (for Jareth anyway).
"So," Jareth smoothly resumed, "what brings you to my kingdom this time?"
"We're following a tale about a priceless religious relic that had been lost in the depths of the Labyrinth," Kelin, the chobla, eagerly replied, "we think that it is in-"
"We're still not sure of its location and we will probably spend some days searching for it," Helexa interrupted, "but when our dear friend Sarah heard about our impending arrival, she immediately sent out an invitational for us to dine at the castle and catch up on what has happened in the years since we last met."
"Of course," Jareth drawled, "it was the polite thing to do after all."
"Indeed," Kelin piped up, "we would never miss the chance to see a fellow mischief maker."
The goblin twins snickered.
"Yes, well it turns out that our dear Sarah has outgrown that sort of behavior quite sometime ago," the Goblin King remarked.
For the most part, he added silently.
"But enough chatter, the food is starting to grow cold," Jareth stated.
Taking their cue, the servants rushed over and removed the covers from the dishes that were spread across the table. Jareth's eyebrows rose as he took in the spread. There was spaghetti and meatballs, mashes potatoes and gravy, corn and peas, honey glazed yams, French fries, chicken-pot pie, fried onion rings, meatloaf, an odd casserole with cheese sauce and macaroni noodles, and something lime green cut into cubes that jiggled at the slightest jostle. Toby's eyes grew wide in delight as he saw the feast before him.
"Awesome!" he yelled, "I haven't had mac n' cheese, onion rings or green jello in years!"
"What sort of food is this?" Helexa asked poking the jello, it quivered in response, "is it even safe to eat?"
"Oh it's perfectly edible," Sarah answered, "I'm not surprised that you haven't come across many of these dishes. It's typical Aboveground fare from where I grew up."
"I see," the siren-harpy dubiously replied.
"This is delicious!" the chobla announced as he shoveled a revolting mixture of mac n' cheese, meatloaf, mashed potatoes and green jello into his mouth.
Jareth, Sarah and Helexa shuddered in disgust at the nauseating mixture.
The dwarf rolled his eyes as he continued to shove entire chicken-pot pies into his mouth from the pile he had amassed on his plate. The goblin twins had taken a bit of everything onto their overflowing plates and were currently lobbing peas at each other. Sarah was helping herself to the spaghetti and yams and added a bit of jello. Helexa was hesitantly nibbling on an onion ring, and discovering that it wasn't all that bad and plied a few onto her plate along with yams and a chicken pit-pie that was already there.
"Have some meatloaf and French fries," Sarah suggested as she saw that Jareth still had nothing on his plate.
Before he could stop her, Sarah had grabbed his plate and put a huge chunk of the disgusting meat dish and a good pile of French fries on it and deposited the plate in front of the Goblin King. Jareth curled his lip in disgust and shoved the food towards the chobla. Kelin happily added the food to his mixture and handed the plate back to Jareth.
"I take it that tonight's menu was your idea?" Jareth asked Sarah as he served himself some spaghetti and meatballs and some of the yams, those dishes being the only edible food that there was.
"Yup, figured that Toby deserved a special treat tonight," Sarah answered as she reached for the mac n' cheese.
Despite the odd selection of food and the guests that Jareth was less than thrilled to have, the Goblin King found himself enjoying the meal. Much as he loathed the group of treasure hunters, Helexa, Cretan and even the chobla made for amusing if not slightly interesting dinner companions. He reserved most of his attention for Sarah and Toby but more than once Jareth found himself being drawn into conversation with the others.
Everything was going just fine until the feud between the goblin twins got out of hand. It all started with Cretan insulting the intelligence of Kwi and Twi (the names of the goblin twins). In retaliation they threw a hunk of meatloaf at the dwarf, the meatloaf landing on Cretan's nose with a wet splat. The dwarf roared and hurled his entire plate at Twi and Kwi but it fell short of the twins and splattered food onto everyone on the left side of the table.
Helexa and Sarah sat there stunned. Slowly thier eyes narrowed and they glared at the offender that got their hair and clothing messy.
Toby decided that this was too good of an opportunity to pass up and shot a spoonful of mashed potatoes at Sarah, a big grin on his face. Giving in to the ineveitable, Sarah threw her mac n' cheese at Toby, getting some on Kelin as well. The chobla was absolutely delighted by the turn of events and threw a handful of the mishmash of food on his plate at Sarah and Helexa. The food started to fly across the table and Sarah noticed that Jareth was still untouched by the food fight.
Well we can't have that now can we? Sarah gleefully thought.
Casually Sarah picked up a handful of mashed potatoes and gravy mixed with peas and smeared the concoction down the left side of the Goblin King's face. Jareth eyes, wide with shock, swiftly narrowed and he proceeded to dump his plate on top of Sarah's head. When the others noticed that Jareth was now game they decided that, despite the mashed potatoes and peas sliding off the side of his face, the Goblin King was not decorated with enough food for their tastes. As one they all threw all the food that they had in their hands at the Goblin King, successfully covering him from head to waist in splattered food.
The food fight lasted another twenty minutes until they had to stop due to the supply of food running out. Food was everywhere, on the floor, the walls, the ceiling, the furniture. The formal dinning hall was a complete mess and so were its occupants.
"Now that we have made a complete fools of ourselves," Jareth remarked peeling an onion ring from his hair, "how do you lot suppose this will be cleaned up, hmmm? It would hardly be fair to make the castle servants clean up this mess that you caused."
The Williams' siblings refused to looked abashed. Covered with splattered food they were not sorry for their part in the food fight the the goblin twins and the dwarf had started. Fwi and Kwi were cackling madly, Cretan had a smirk on his face, Kelin was beaming with
happiness and even Helexa was smiling despite all the food in her carefully groomed hair and wings.
"Well?" Jareth demmanded sweeping his hand towards the mess, "get working already."
They didn't budge and their smiles only grew wider.
Jareth snarled in disgust, "well if that's the case I suppose that you lot will be needing to wash off soon!"
Before they could react Jareth threw a brightly glowing crystal at them and in a flash of light they disappeared. Jareth knew that he shouldn't have done it due to the amount of energy it would take out of him but it felt damn satisfying to be able to get back at Sarah and her "guests" after that prank they had pulled on him almost five years ago. Sure, it was a petty move, but Jareth was known to hold grudges for years if it suited him.
A moment later Sarah appeared dripping wet and pissed off in a shaft of moonlight spilling in from one of the open windows.
"Enjoy your bath?" Jareth smirked.
"So much that I think that you should join the rest of us," Sarah growled grabbing the Goblin King by the arm.
"Now Sarah wait a moment," Jareth pleaded.
Sarah grinned nastily, yanked the Goblin King into the moonlight and transported them back to the freezing cold lake that she had just been dumped in.
"Hey look, Sarah's back!" Toby yelled as he spotted his sister come up.
"And look who I brought with me!" Sarah shouted back as Jareth surfaced sputtering indignantly.
"How nice of you to join us Your Majesty!" Helexa called.
"Why don't you join us for a swim?" Kelin chirped, "it is quite a lovely night for a midnight swim."
"Yes Your Majesty, feel free to join us as we swim" Cretan menacingly gestured.
Jareth sighed as he took in the sopping wet group of creatures spread randomly around him and Sarah. The dwarf was obviously out for blood, the chobla didn't seemed fazed in the lightest and was apparently having great fun engaging Toby in a splashing war, the goblin twins were no where to be seen, Helexa was grimacing at having water in her feathers and Sarah... Sarah had a disturbing smirk on her face.
Jareth realized what her intent was just a second before she placed her hands on his shoulders and pushed down. Sarah knowing that Jareth would retaliate tried to make good her escape but one his hands got a firm grip on her right foot and pulled her under. She came up a few seconds later gasping for air as Jareth watched in satisfaction. The Moon Child took one look at the smug look on the Goblin King's face and sent a huge splash at him. Of course what happened next was completely predictable.
Jareth and Sarah got into huge water war, first pulling Kelin and Toby into the fray, then the dwarf, Twi and Kwi and finally Helexa as well. By the time they finally wore themselves out and crawled up onto the shore, the moon was starting to sink towards the western horizon.
Toby groaned at seeing how far away the castle was from where Jareth had dropped them. He was not looking forward to the long walk back. A sharp wind whipped by and Toby shivered, he really wasn't looking forward to the long walk back. The thirteen year old wished that he could teleport like Jareth could.
"Hey J-man think you can magic us back already? I'm freezing my behind off over here!" Toby yelled at the Goblin King who was currently being fussed over by Sarah.
Jareth scowled at the nickname and wearily replied, "I don't have enough energy to get us all back. I can send you and possibly Sarah back, but after that I will be totally useless for the next twenty-six hours."
"Jareth you don't even have the energy to swat a fly!" Sarah scolded, "seriously, deciding to send us into the middle of the lake wasn't the smartest idea."
"Yes, but that wouldn't have been a problem if you hadn't invited this miserable lot over for dinner," Jareth shot back.
"They're my friends Jareth!" Sarah yelled, "you need to get over your jealousy already."
"I'm not jealous," Jareth pouted.
I just can't resisit that bottom lip, Sarah thought as she captured said lip between her teeth and chewed on it lightly.
Jareth let out an appreciative groan. His hands started sneaking down Sarah's dress.
"Hey impressionable child over here!" Toby shouted, "stop with the kissy-face already!"
"God you are such a brat sometimes," Sarah groaned as reluctantly pulled away from the Goblin King, "okay Tobes time to get you back."
"About time," Toby grumbled as he walked over to Sarah.
Sarah grabbed his hand and both the Moon Child and the Goblin Prince vanished into the moonlight. Seconds later she reappeared and then returned the rest of the band of treasure hunters, one-by-one, until it was just her and Jareth left.
"My turn to hop on board the Sarah Express?" Jareth asked suggestively.
"Don't get any funny thoughts mister," Sarah warned as she took Jareth's hand.
Together they disappeared into the moonlight. Of course what she failed to mention to the Goblin King was that she had no intentions on returning him to the castle that night. But he didn't have to know that, he would find out in a few seconds anyway.
"Sarah why did you bring me here?" Jareth asked puzzled as he looked around.
"You can be too trusting sometimes Goblin King," Sarah stated.
"Is there any reason why I shouldn't?" Jareth retorted, smirking.
"Oh I can think of a few reasons," Sarah murmured.
"Do tell," Jareth drawled.
"Hmm, possibly because I have you trapped in the only Oubliette that has no way to get out from except by teleportation?" Sarah mused, "or is it the fact that I could leave you here for months before anyone could find you? I think that I really the idea of keeping you here for a few days as my prisoner."
"Did the thought ever occur to you that you could easily be trapped here?" Jareth countered.
"As long as I have access to moonlight, I can be anywhere I want to be," Sarah retorted.
"Ah, but the moonlight is no longer spilling in through the hole above," Jareth smirked, "you're just as trapped in here as I am love."
"How do you know that was exactly what I planned?" Sarah spoke in a low sultry voice, "I have you exactly where I want you. You are at my mercy Goblin King."
"Not necessarily a bad place to be," Jareth mused just before Sarah tackled him to the ground and immediately claimed his lips for her own.
"Mine," Sarah crooned, "only mine. My man, my Jareth, my lover."
"As you are mine," Jareth softly stated.
"Mmmm, yes," Sarah agreed, "but tonight,... well tonight you are mine."
"Mine," she growled.
"In-"
She sat up.
"every-"
Before he knew it, Sarah had flipped him onto his stomach and pinned his arms behind his back.
"single-"
Sarah pulled something from a hidden pocket in her still damp dress.
"way."
She snapped the handcuffs around his wrists.Jareth realized that he had been tricked struggled furiously against his bonds.
"Oh do keep on squirming lover," Sarah purred, "it only is making me more aroused."
Jareth sighed and gave up the fight. Obviously Sarah wanted to be in charge tonight and truth be told, he wasn't all that adverse to the idea.
"Good to know that you have realized your place prisoner," Sarah chuckled, "but I still need to do something before I can begin myinterrogation."
Jareth shivered in excitement at the predatory tone of Sarah's voice.
"Hope you're ready lover," Sarah murmured as turned around.
"Sarah what-" Jareth yelped as he felt something tightening around his ankles.
Sarah lightly swatted his butt.
"The prisoner is to remain silent until further told," Sarah ordered.
Jareth mutely nodded and Sarah finished tying the rope around his ankles.
"Mmmm, much better," Sarah announced as she gently rolled him over and placed him in a sitting position against the stone wall, "there will be absolutely no escape for you."
Satisfied, Sarah took a moment to admire her handiwork. There the Goblin King sat, hands cuffed behind his back and legs tied together, absolutely helpless. His eyes were half-lidded and darkened with desire. He was so vulnerable like this but Jareth trusted Sarah with his life, he knew that she would never hurt him (any more than he wanted her to that is).
"I love you," Sarah whispered and tenderly kissed him.
"My heart is yours," Jareth replied.
"But now it's time for the interrogation," Sarah announced as she pulled back, reverting into her prison warden persona.
Jareth whimpered from the loss of contact as well as the promise laden words she used.
"So tell me Goblin King, do you realize what you're in here for?" Sarah drilled, leaning down, the front of her dress giving Jareth quite an eyeful.
"Well?" she barked grabbing Jareth by the chin and forcing to look her in the eye.
"Whatever it is, I'm sure that I'm guilty," Jareth purred, that sinful voice of his sending pleasant tingles down her spine.
"Ooh a tough guy," Sarah smirked weaving her fingers into Jareth's hair, "I know exactly how to deal with your type."
She yanked his head up and claimed his lips in a brutal, dominating kiss. Her tongue forced entrance into his mouth, sweeping along the interior and waging war with his own. It didn't take long to elicit a moan from her captive as she continued to nibble on his lower lip and stroke his tongue with her own before shoving it in as far as she could. Another moan was pulled out of him when she vibrated her tongue in his mouth, like one does when rolling their r's. Satisfied at his complacency, Sarah finally pulled back and smirked.
With his eyes drunk on desire and his lips swollen and red from her kiss, the Goblin King looked completely ravished.
Yummy, Sarah thought.
"Are you willing to cooperate now tough guy?" Sarah demanded.
"Yes," Jareth whispered.
"Yes what?" Sarah taunted grinding her knee against his bulging erection.
"Yes Mistress!" Jareth gasped heaving his hips upwards, desperate for more contact.
"Good answer," Sarah rumbled, "now I ask again, do you know what you're guilty of?"
"No Mistress, I don't," Jareth replied.
Sarah pulled away from him again.
"Please," Jareth begged.
"Please what, prisoner?" Sarah responded.
"Please touch me Mistress," Jareth pleaded, "tell me what I did wrong."
"How can I deny the prisoner when he asks so nicely?" Sarah grinned, "but first, I think I need to remove some of that clothing you're wearing."
With that, Sarah slowly unbuttoned his vest and shirt, pulling them down along his arms leaving it to rest at his elbows, baring his glistening chest to the cool night air.
"Very nice," Sarah commented and then proceeded to drive Jareth into a wild frenzy with her hands and tongue.
She started at the hollow of his throat. Tracing it with her tongue, nipping with her teeth, blowing cool air onto his skin, lightly running her nails along his collar bone, she quickly reduced the proud Goblin King into a quivering heap. From his throat she moved down to his chest, attacking his flat nipples with her fingers and teeth. Rubbing, pinching, stroking, kissing and suckling, every thing she did to him only built up his desire, his moans, whimpers and quickly indrawn breaths indicating what effect her ministrations were having on him.
His arms were straining against his bonds as he wildly thrashed about as Sarah continued downward. Jareth in his lust clouded mind wanted to do nothing more than throw his teasing lover down and pound her until she lost all function of her limbs. But he had no chance of being able to do so, the handcuffs and his bound feet preventing him from being able to do anything but mindlessly flail around, seeking the release that Sarah was denying him.
Then, much to his dismay, Sarah suddenly stopped. She had a smug grin on her face as she stood up and took a moment to let Jareth stew in his frustration before speaking.
"You really want to know what your crime was?" Sarah asked.
Jareth let out a frustrated groan.
"You are guilty of theft," Sarah declared as her eyes fastened on the big bulge in her prisoner's pants, "a crime punishable by at least three months of incarceration. But I'm going to let you off easy and only keep you locked up for one night."
In one move, Sarah drew her arms out of the sleeves of her dress, letting it softly fall to the ground. Jareth's eyes fastened hungrily on her form, Sarah was wearing nothing under that dress but a small pair of lace panties. He felt his already aching errection hardening further.
"Poor little Goblin King, it looks like you have a little (or not so little) problem," Sarah teased stroking his erection through Jareth's pants, "all tied up and no where to go. Such a pity."
Jareth growled impatiently at her.
Sarah was starting to get tired of the foreplay. As satisfying as it was to watch her lover squirm helplessly before her, she was too wound up by now to continue teasing the Goblin King. Sarah wanted to ride him good and hard and she wanted to do it now.
With one sharp tug, Sarah pulled Jareth's tan breeches down and with a moan of relief from her lover, his swollen cock proudly sprang up.
"Not so tough now are we?" Sarah murmured as she pumped his shaft.
She rubbed her thumb over the tip of his penis, causing Jareth to gasp. Unable to help herself, Sarah spent a few more minutes playing with the Goblin King's cock. Her panties were beyond soaked now and the Moon Child could smell her own arousal. It was time to get down to business.
"Wanna know what you stole that got you into this predicament lover?" Sarah crooned.
"Sarah," Jareth growled, "please shut up and fuck me already!"
"As the prisoner requests," she replied.
Kneeling on all fours, with Jareth's body laying between her spread limbs, Sarah did a funny little wiggle, causing her breasts to bounce, momentarily distracted Jareth. Eagerly he fastened his mouth around one pert rosy nipple and started sucking on it. Sarah was too focused on removing her sopping wet underwear to reprimand him. She was getting nowhere fast as her lace panties were sticking to her legs as she tried to remove them. With a snarl of impatience Sarah ripped them off and flung them away.
Finally, with all barriers removed, Sarah wasted no time in lowering herself onto Jareth's cock, taking him all the way in. Both of them let out a sigh of relief. The Moon Child shifted about for a few moments, trying to find a comfortable position. She settled with wrapping her legs around Jareth's waist and got to work.
Bobbing up and down, Sarah rode Jareth's member, clenching her inner muscles tight every time she pulled up. By Jareth's enthusiastic babbling, he certainly was enjoying what she was doing and so Sarah upped the pace. While she was doing this, Jareth kept his mouth occupied by lavishing attention onto her breasts, Sarah's moans of appreciation spurring him on.
They came together, screaming each other's name, Sarah's tightly convulsing inner walls prolonging their organisms by several seconds. The blind, hot rush seemed to last for an eternity, but when it was over, Sarah lay panting on Jareth's chest while murmured sweet endearments to her.
"That wasn't too much for you was it?" Sarah asked with concern.
"It was wonderful love," Jareth reassured her.
Sarah made to get up to retrieve the key for the handcuffs from her discarded dress.
"Stay."
The single word from Jareth's lips halted her.
"But Jareth, I need to-" Sarah began.
"I don't care," Jareth persisted, "I like you right where you are. You're comfy."
"Yeah, but I'm the one on top," Sarah wryly pointed out.
"Mmmm, don't care," Jareth murmured, "you're warm. Don't move."
Sarah gave in. His stubbornness was just too cute to resist right now. With a happy sigh she snuggled back onto his chest.
"Much better," he sleepily purred.
"I still haven't told you what you stole," Sarah whispered.
"Oh?" Jareth asked, "and just what did I steal?"
"You stole my heart silly," she replied just as she was drifting off.
"The perfect crime," Jareth muttered as he too fell asleep.
Ok, it's a day later than I had promised, but homework, and my social life took up a lot of my time this weekend. As of now, I really don't have any idea when the next chappie will be done, it could be in a few days or in a few weeks. I will get it out before the end of February, so no worries about mutli-month spaces between updates again.
Reviews are greatly welcome and appreciated.
