Chapter 5: Blazin' Embers

The two dragons padded towards Flame's home via the same, familiar path Ember took was traveled again towards Dragon Village, with each stony house huddled for warmth beside one another. The flame dragon resided higher from the staircase bisecting from the same path Ember previously took. The lit torches illuminated more passionately to ward away the darkness with a gentle light. It was serene overhead the tender, fiery couple. The two conversed a bit, sharing smiles and laughs on the way. It didn't feel much different than before they both professed their intimate love for each other; an amiable bond flowed, but with a newfound endearment their eyes.

The pink dragoness giggled, "And apparently that's how it felt for her!" she explained, with a bashful expression on her face. The flame dragon flinched his head back in equal confusion, but more baffled with his maw agape. "Wait, how does that even work? Your girl friend, how can she even fit all that in from him?!"

Ember shrugged. "You got me. But apparently in the littlest of places, something com-plete-ly big can just somehow squeeeeze right in there. I'm more surprised it wasn't even painful in that spot."

The flame dragon nodded, and nudged her elbow. "So… Is it that painful in there?"

"I dunno, never tried it even once. As she said, it's not easy to consume that much of the lamb. Even with the chunk of the shank he pawed to her."

Flame blinked, and laughed nervously. "Oooooh!" he stretched his note, whipping his head around and scratching his horn. "Y-You're referring to the lamb she tried to eat… with her mouth."

The young, draconic couple appeared to the doorway of Flame's home. A behemoth of a wooden door guarded his home, composed of both stone and brick. Nothing more grand than the dragoness' home as they appeared similar.

"What did you think I was implying? I clearly said he helped jam a chunk of lamb in her mouth since she was very exceptionally hungry," Ember asked of Flame. Her friend simply tugged at his own horn to debate in holding his tongue or not. "I… thought you were referring to… anal."

The pink dragoness pinched her snout with a long sigh, "Boys… No, you missed that she ate, not… inserted something inside her. By it, it was the food, not her tailhole…"

Flame rapped a claw lightly on the wooden door, "N-Never mind that, here we are!" he diverted. A rosy blush still appeared on Ember's cheeks, now contemplating the thought of something big in such an orifice. Normally, it wasn't anything special or intimate; the two playmates typically stayed at each other's abodes to hang out or play with friends. Instead, their new aura filled them both silence of the night with something different in mind.

The fire dragon hopped to a bush under a window, and dug his paw through the moistened dirt. The pines pricked at his foreleg and paw, but he retrieved the key. The door clicked open, but Flame pivoted the door slowly with hardly a creak to break the cool air.

"Come inside, Ember," said Flame gesturing his head inside the house. The dragoness nodded silently, "Alright; but keep it down. I don't think your parents would appreciate a late guest at this time in the night. Especially if we, well… make some noise." she blushed thinking about it. A quick sense of adrenaline filled her; normally she'd be obedient and follow her parents and safety, but under the watch of the mate she loved, it felt more intoxicating. More free, not really rebellious in her mind. It was blissful, to think of the time they'd spend in each other's company in the night.

The two dragons set foot inside the room. A thick carpet welcomed their paws, feeling each fiber brush against their pads. Nothing echoed nor wisped within the open rooms and staircase as the parents of Flame's snored. The two, growing fire dragons nestled side-by-side up the staircase.

Is this for real? Might I actually experience love to a more intimate scale? thought Ember. I wouldn't have imagined myself coming this far, even with a dragon such as Flame… but he's so charming and sweet. It shouldn't be anything bad, nor would I select another dragon besides him.

Ember… Ember… Flame thought within his head. I am most amazed how she'd look into me as the dragon I became now. Sure I had my moments being a silly kid, but finally she sees through more to me. Even if her expectations were high, I think I've matched Spyro, or done better for her sake. Good hero, but perhaps he cannot suit Ember's needs like I can.

Now it was all within the privacy of his room to come.

It wasn't anything too special at the moment, with the eclipsing shadows casting on the entire room. What brightened were merely a few candles set upon a bedroom desk besides his bed as a source of light. The bed was loaded with straw for Flame to sleep on, but was untidy as Ember expected with a small giggle.

"You're still as dirty as ever, Flame." Ember joked and walked over towards the messy bed. Her forepaws grasped a few thick straws sprawled out in the floor, and playfully tossed a few in the air. They juggled under her blows, and scattered off on their noses. The flame dragon laughed along with her play. "Hey, you're going to make it even worse than it already is, Emmy." He played along, and slapped a chunk of straw at her with his tail covering her underbelly and chest.

The pink dragoness giggled along, and patted his horns. "I could be doing you a favor, considering it's already bad enough!" she cleverly teased, and readied herself to pounce against the bed. "Cannonball." she chirped under her breathe, and launched herself to the air with a flap of her wings. The sea of straw puffed to the air atop her, as she rolled playfully on it. "Don't go without me." He joined in the play, leapt to the air.

A dust devil of straw encompassed the lovers, giggling beside each other on their backs. "We just never age, do we?" Ember giggled, wiping bits of straw on her companion to coat. Flame's maw buzzed with some laughter, "We do, but who can't resist a bit of fun and play?" Flame answered with a cheery smile. The two dragons rolled over with a paw on their chests to catch their breath; little did they notice the warmth of the other's paw was closer than they thought. Right against each other.

Flame rubbed his paw against Ember, and attempted to retreat it. Suddenly his movement froze in place by a resisting paw: Ember's pink forepaw grasped the wrist of his forepaw to tug. A sheepish smile was evident on her face. "Please, don't leave your paw from me." she beseeched in a sweet tone. The pink dragoness inched closer on the straw mattress, and carefully climbed atop her mate.

Ember's scales and body gleamed away from the darkness under the gentle moonlight and the candle. The scales glistened almost as brightly as the ruby necklace atop the clavicle of the fire dragon she set on him. "You know, I always found you just a bit cute ever since we first met and years to come." she confided with a more coy expression. "Had I known you'd be more open and welcoming of my feelings…" she trailed off, brushing Flame's forearm with her forepaw. The texture of his scales against her paw coaxed a relaxation on him.

Flame looked at her, concentrating at her eyes. A small tear exuded from her iris, radiating an ample light by the candle. The rays glistened her ruby as much, producing a more sweet, but vulnerable side of Ember. She showed a few signs earlier, except now it appeared much more noticeable to the flame dragon. His heart steadied its rate, feeling comfortable and not as shy and awkward with their intimacy.

Flame took her forepaw on the ruby, and cupped his forepaws on her's; the lovers' bodies pressed against each other in a warm harmony in the refreshing night. "Ember, maybe you were a bit foolish, but only back then." he comforted her with a genuine smile. "It might be a girl's thing to waltz about for a dream guy, but sometimes they may not be as obvious as you may think, my little candlelight."

The pink dragoness placed a claw under her chin, "In a way, I guess… Before then as a hatchling and kid, I always fantasized of Spyro. We all know how that turned out to now," she mentioned with a flick of her forepaw. "But then, I tried to move on and managed to meet another… creature. Not a dragon, actually." she began with a twiddle of her claws raking on each other in thought.

Flame perked up, "A creature that is a… A caveman? Fairy? Sea Serpent?"

Ember shook her head, and readied to speak.

"Ape! Wait, could it have been a weasel? They are pretty handsome to some dragonesses I heard – if you can get past the 'duuude' and 'whazzap' and this weird lingo they have. Or could it been an–"

"Armadillo, Flame."

"Arachnid – wait, armadillo?" he repeated puzzled. "An armadillo? They are far off the west from Dragon Village, aren't they, at Cliff Town? You know, like Bandit who used to sweep by around town time by time. I got a weird vibe from him, I dunno; maybe it's just him."

The fire dragoness sighed, "And that was my recent crush. Turns out things ended badly on sour terms between us," she began and sat on her haunches – motion her partner to follow suit to face the window's edge. "Frankly, had he not come into my life, perhaps I'd have been crushing for Spyro, and been more like my cheeriest self as usual. I'm fine in front of others, but clearly you saw me hurt when I was alone."

Flame stepped up to move towards the windowsill, pointing to the general direction of Cliff Town. "So what was so harrowing when Bandit did something bad to you? He wasn't too bad, just a bit odd and someone gentlemanly."

Ember walked beside him, placing her forepaw flat to the window. "It all started only a month since Spyro managed to best The Sorcerer who attacked Dragon Realms to conquer…"

It was a simpler time. Spyro seemed nice and all, but then we exchanged letters during the whole Shadow Realms issue. He seemed rather charming to speak with, and started off as pen pals. Nothing too extraordinary. Once the turmoil subsided, I encountered Bandit and spent a few months in a relationship with him. It was nice; exploring his dry and arid home of Cliff Town, exploring Tree Tops with him capable of hopping on branches with ease as I flew – and once even heading to Dragon Shores for a swim. To think he'd convince me I'd look ravishing in a bikini, since it was always more attractive on an adult capable of standing on two legs.

But that's besides the point. I certain it was true love for months to come, even if others found our relationship a bit odd – an armadillo with a dragoness. Funny. Until one day it all crumbled; I was going to meet him at Cliff Town, and instead I find him in likely an affair with another dragoness. All I heard was moaning and some… bizarre noises at the time which sounded pleasured. Lo and behold, the two were doing – well – what I think was pretty much what we were doing earlier, but I had no idea! It was shocking to find my love backstabbing me behind the back with another dragon – the nerve!

"Why have you done this, Bandit?!" I distinctly recall myself shouting. Immediately I shut myself away from what they were up to, and returned home. Burning each and every one of his letters, I sulked more to myself when thinking of love. Spyro, if I moved back to him, it would feel quite shallow. That's the last thing I want to do – return to another crush as if it is a scapegoat. Sure I seemed fine in front of everyone, but it just left an emotional scar on me looking back.

And so, one night, I just went to the newly grown orchard with the panels to help hatchlings pick fruit with families. I didn't tinker with anything, but it was a good place to remain at nights and count the stars as usual. Often I'd just let it out with no one to watch…

Her paw rubbed against the wooden side of the pane-less window, looking higher to the twinkling stars. "And then you came in just one of the nights – later to inquire for some help again with your scroll to write," she giggled. "But of course it was not a complete waste of time, Flame…" she reassured him with a paw on his shoulder.

"You do not resent armadillos all because of Bandit, right?" Flame finally asked of Ember.

The pink dragoness shook her head, "It'd be short sighted of me. I know better; bad dragons and good dragons. The same can happen for armadillos, and any other creature alike. The residents at Cliff Town upon hearing us separate are still friendly, but I completely avoid him for that sole reason. I highly doubt it was a misunderstanding, but I'd rather not check since it was awful and looking back at it doesn't make me feel much better."

Flame nodded, and turned to rest at the bed. "I-If it makes you feel better, I'm always around. I shouldn't be a broken record since I already do that, but… you know. I'm not that kind of guy despite a few boyish quirks."

"Like perversion?" Ember spoke, changing the subject to divert away from the previous recounting. The fire dragon nervously chuckled as she approached him, flicking his tail on the straw. "Weeell… at times. It's some way of words,"

"And peeping, Flaaame?" she emphasized. "I thought you took a while to help me up from the raised platform; hope it wasn't too much eye candy for your boyish antics getting that good of a look."

Flame's jaw went agape, "I-I have not a clue what you're talking about!" he tried to defend himself, flustered by his friend. "What makes you insinuate that of me?"

Ember placed a paw atop his underbelly hard, "Come on, I managed to get a glimpse swinging from there of you simply staring. Lower, might I add? I'm not that oblivious." She pressed a pinch harder, "Well?"

The fire dragon gulped, "F-Fine, I did. But I still lifted you up; I don't usually do that; just got caught up in the heat of the moment – no pun intended this time of the season." he added with a coat of red in his cheeks.

Ember sighed, "You're lucky I wouldn't make a candle out of your tail and torch you to a crisp," she admitted and laid herself atop him on the straw. "I don't mind taking a bit of advantage over the heat for the two of us…" she decided and rested her head on her companion. Flame's neck could feel the warmth of her breath not even huffy over what he did. "Love you, Emmy." he spoke and wrapped a wing around her.

The pink dragoness nuzzled and lucked his cheek, "Love you too, Flame." The heat of the moment finally fully captured Flame, as both love and the season's control of their hormones synchronized to a heavenly balance. It no longer felt awkward, but more natural to each other, even if it would escalate.

The touch rose Ember's body heat, as a heat coursed from head to toe, and on her curvy figure. Her breath slowed, listening and nodding just once. "Back to what you were talking about earlier, forgetting my crush and being a bit dumb, thanks, Flame. Perhaps I was, but I learn. I can just see a little light of hope now, no more of this pitch black loneliness lurking behind me." she beamed with a returning grace in her voice and joy.

The pink dragoness looked at Flame once again in the eyes, feeling a new aura of warmth in them, as he became more open to her. The two dragons closed their eyes, and their heads inched closer to come into a kiss. Their forepaws squeezed tight on the other's and the ruby pendent of Flame's was warm to the touch on her lowered chest; a soft kiss swept a sensation of love to the air. Their wings unfurled to and wrapped the dragons to shroud the outside world and keep their romantic solace.

The osculation of their maws lasted a few minutes, and finally they broke free with a controlled tempo to breathe. "That was just as amazing as the last one, Flame, maybe better." She admitted and faced her head to Flame and caressed the fire dragon.

"I can't agree anymore," agreed Flame with a chuckle in his voice. An odd expression was noticed in Ember's eyes; her lips curved to a slyer smile, and her tail whipped a little bit back and forth. The heart-shaped tail blade of Ember's wandered a little against Flame, from his hips to delve lower. The tail blade skipped from his groin, and hopped against his hind legs, brushed against them quickly. The flame dragon tingled with a wiggle of his hips. He pondered more of what Ember intended as her tail neared his own region, coming closer and closer.

The tip of the Ember's heart pulled itself around his hips, drawing circles against each thigh of Flame's. He felt his breath finally steady, anticipating more of what Ember wanted. "Go on, Ember," he cooed. "If you'd like, we can do it again just like earlier. Perhaps finish what we started…"

The pink dragoness giggled, and allowed her tail to dance around him. The tip poked against his scales, feeling the toughness of his hide to the tenderness of the spot between the thighs of her partner. "If you're good, we can perhaps try a certain, tight spot. That place you mistook my friend of taking in…" She teased, and pressed the her blade flat against her mate's groin. The press pushed slightly at first with a playful push each second. Flame felt a blush build on him, feeling the press against where his dragonesshood would appear.

The dragoness smiled more, watching the face of Flame's lower muzzle quiver with anticipation. The dragoness ceased her tail movement, and gently nudged Flame to fall back and relax with her snout. The flame dragon raised his paws flat atop the stack of hay making his bed. The pink dragoness scuttled higher on the bed atop Flame to plant a warm kiss on her partner's neck, letting a bit of saliva escape from her maw. He merely moaned by the sweet and moist kiss as she continued to plant a few kisses on his sides and forepaws.

Ember gave a seductive smile down the flame dragon below her, and turned her lower body to face him. The male took a deep breath, once again noticing her rump close to his face. The female carefully eyed the spot she pressed, noticing a few ridges ripple and fold away into an oval. His sheath was slowly disappearing to expose the tip of a fleshy object, still cozy and tired after the previous encounter.

"There's your little sword, Flame." She played around. "Maybe I can pull it out for you?" The dragoness pressed a claw at the center of the ripples and traced around his flaccid member. The claw lightly scratched his sensitive sheath which made him gasp in pleasure. The heat of his body intensified, as blood pumped from head to toe, some blood diverting to the channels of his fleshy member.

The sword slowly raised from the groin of Flame's, thickening and expanding with every few seconds before Ember's eyes. A quick burst of adrenaline filled her, noticing the dragon prepare himself for her love. The more and more it erected, the more tempted Ember was to have him make love with her. Not too soon, she thought. Slow and steady before we continue.

"That's much better," she thought aloud, and traced a claw up from the base to the pointed tip. Her white and polished claw flicked the member against one direction, making Flame yelp in a quick wave of pleasure. "Oh… Ember. It's not a toy, you know." he shyly spoke, feeling his mate's dominance slowly take over. The pink dragoness looked back towards Flame, and struck an idea as her face was filled with some inspiration.

"I know a way we can liven things up, just a little." She insisted with a coy but lustful smile. Ember faced Flame and nudged him with her heel of her hind paw on his hind leg to stand up on the bed. The dragoness dropped a pillow from her teeth, and tossed herself on her back. "Let's try it the other way around than last time." she suggested, covering part of her face with a paw. The idea was very enticing, but felt very dirty in her mind. She still wondered if Flame would be interested.

The flame dragon faced Ember with a slightly skeptic grimace. "Are you sure?" he asked with a hint of worry. "I mean, I love to do this with you, but I'm unsure if it might hurt a bit. You won't choke, will you?"

Ember giggled, "Of course not! As long as you don't jam it down my throat. Plus my muzzle can fit plenty like that dragoness I mentioned."

"Think of it like a game." she offered and brushed his chest with her tail tip. The fire dragon looked to the side and listened on the reverberating snores of his parents. Not a bad idea, I'll play along her little charade of our moment.

The flame dragon grinned and rubbed his chest. "We've done plenty of games. I wouldn't mind this type of a thing to try out, but only because it's you." He snickered, and turned himself to face away from her with their bodies parallel. The flame dragon felt his erect self throb a bit, wondering how the sensation may change if he were to thrust this way. He felt his throbbing mass inch closer to Ember's nose by the tip.

Ember scooted herself comfortably and closer under Flame, and poked his nippy member with her snout. It was still pink and a cool with their fluids previously drying on him. The dragoness opened her maw, and allowed her tongue to reach out and rest underneath Flame's tip. The fire dragon squirmed a bit, feeling his member heat up rapidly against the brushing of her tongue. She remained silent, and used one forepaw to pull it straighter down towards her underbelly. She grasped him by the paw, and began to stroke him very carefully and softly. Her pawpads grazed against him, feeling the friction give a greater ecstasy in his lower body with each moan he emitted.

"Any more comfortable now, Flam-ie?" she teased as her paw reached against his knot. The fire dragon felt his forepaws give out, as he hunched over to keep his lower body up to stand. He gasped, "A little… little more, Ember." He answered. "But, nothing even I can't… handle." Flame looked back, seeing Ember's smile widen more by fondling him gently. The fire dragon steadied his breath, and nodded to himself. "Alright, I… I guess I'll start, then." Flame alerted her, and arced his back a little more. He came closer against Ember snout, poking her very gently. She nodded, and allowed him entrance within her mouth, feeling his member warm against her moist mouth. Flame made a quick yelp, feeling his part being partly swallowed by his passionate companion.

The part of Flame's throbbed with mild pulses, feeling his precum merely melt away within the saliva-filled chamber of the dragoness' maw. The flame dragon arced his back a little more, feeling from what was half his size to his entirety within the dragoness' mouth with a sudden thrusting motion.

Ember gagged little by little in each push, feeling Flame push far too deep inside for her to handle. The flame dragon eventually heard the chokes and mild squirms of Ember under her, and immediately retreated from his tip. The dragoness instead used both her forepaws to push Flame's crotch away with more force as he moved a step away in front of her so she can breathe easily. "Flame, be more gentle." she told him with a hint of anger.

Flame sat on his haunches. "I'm… I'm so sorry. I just, well… I got into the heat of the moment a bit. I thought maybe – maybe if I tried harder to please you, you'd enjoy our time much more – you know, our game." He apologized, feeling a bit of his dignity chipped. "Just got a bit carried away. Didn't mean to choke you with… that of all things."

Ember dismissed the thought with her paw, "It's completely fine. Just take it easy; you'll know when I'm ready for more so soon." she reassured him, and rested her head once more on the pillow with a flick of her tongue from her maw. Flame took the signal, and lowered himself down upon her once more, swallowed again by his companion.

The pink dragoness hummed softly, dragging her tongue to tickle around the fire dragon's sensitive tip. The fire dragon took a breath feeling the dragoness return, and looked down to Ember's folds between her legs. Flame lowered his tongue to brush against the base of her inner thigh, making her squirm underneath him. He flicked his tongue upon her pink canal and sucked gently on Ember. A passionate heat continued between the two together with each other's company during the end of mating season.

Ember moaned louder as she dove deeper into Flame's member. Her eyes opened to slits and peered at the knot of her friend. A naughty thought filled her as she felt her paw around the underside of his tail beyond the knot. Finally, she found it: Flame's tailhole, feeling as a series of ridges going inwards to the center. Glad we both took a refreshing bath. Hope he enjoys a little surprise to take inside…

Her claw prodded the spot, making the fire dragon lurch up. "Th-That's not where–" The flame dragoness gave a soft hush to him, "I'll be gentle. Promise," she slyly spoke in a soft tone. Ember pressed her claw against the tail hole of Flame and eyed his reactions. His muzzle shut and a slow nod came from him during his licks. His tail hole widened a bit to allow entrance to her lover.

"Ahhh!" he squeaked with a gasp, and panted hard. Flame's rectum stretched to compensate for Ember's claw penetrating him. "It's alright, you're washed up properly like me." she spoke to him, and continued to move her claw up and down and all around with a swishing motion. The fire dragon bit his tongue, and held a claw to the air. "T-Two can play this game, Ember…" he toyed with her, and followed suit to press against her tail hole.

She smirked, "You would love to, wouldn't you?" she tempted him. "Come at me with what you've got, big boy…" Ember's anus yielded to her friend's claw pressing more and more, and stretched for him too. On top of that, Flame drove his tongue inside her heated canal to savor her taste. The pink dragoness' tongue hung loose feeling him drive his claw inside her tail hole, and stroked Flame's member. "Mmmhm, you know when you challenge a dragoness, Flame…" she moaned, and held her paw at the base of his knot, and proceeded deeper down his length with her claw still drilling.

The fire dragon pushed his tongue deeper and deeper within her mate, and swerved his hips for Ember. Examining her lust increasing, the dragoness appeared ready for more. Albeit a little rough on his member, he moved his hips to bend along with her maw left, and then to the right. And even proceeded to thrust more inside her, eliciting a throbbing sensation as his pleasure skyrocketed along with her. Ember simply lashed out her tongue against his fleshy member pushing deeper and deeper inside her. Sucking loudly at times with his precum coating her mouth and even her snout, she enjoyed pleasing him more to this extent with her folds stimulated by her mate's loving tongue.

Eventually, their energy built up on their mating organs: his member and knot twitched more and more, while her loving passage burned and churned with the building sensation. Ember's eyes widened as Flame's knot grazed on the front of her fangs, and the fire dragon huffed louder and louder. "E-Ember!..." he gasped and tried to silence his noise, "I'm going to cum again!" The dragoness placed a paw to rub her folds alongside Flame penetrating his tongue deeper and deeper inside her. She could feel it again too, and it was no longer draining but also… so pleasing and blissful.

The flame dragon pushed himself to his deepest within Ember, and she muffled out: "S-Same here, Flame!" Her companion pushed hard one last time, and his eyes opened with his tongue hanging off his muzzle; a thick, sticky release filled the pink dragoness' muzzle. Within her mouth, his tip twitched and shot his seed deep within her throat, seeping down the back of her tongue and deep with a sweet and saline taste. It was sucked completely clean by his mate, leaving only saliva to coat his appendage.

The similar release occurred for Flame, when he watched Ember's hind leg buck and squirted her fluid. It shot at Flame's chin, and he sucked more at her urethra to let it splash on his muzzle. It was more saline compared to his own seed for Ember to taste, but highly erotic and pleasing by her scent.

The dragoness pushed herself up with a bit of fatigue in her body, and tossed herself atop Flame. The fire dragon did not mind her fluid on his back spines grazing on her wet folds. "That was amazing, Flame…" she spoke a bit exasperated and licked his cheek. Flame smiled with his muzzle all damp, and now his own seed on his cheek by her tongue. With a brief kiss, they exchanged their fluids once again – breaking free to settle himself on his back to cuddle.

"Almost better than the second time – almost," admitted Flame with a chuckle.

"It's because I shoved a claw inside your butt," she giggled with a roll of her eyes. "Come on, it wasn't that bad; I enjoyed something in mine too, you know."

The fire dragon laughed, "No, no. Not that. Just it felt very new and, well, I was completely new. But it was close getting all down and a little dirty with you." he winked and licked her snout. She smiled, brushing a forepaw on his shoulder. "I wonder what we could do for our little 'games', Emmy."

The pink dragoness turned towards Flame. "What else do you have in mind?" Ember rhetorically asked to seduce him a bit more. The female licked her maw with a keen interest of his response. A cute smile curved from her muzzle, "Oh, maybe something more…intimate." her heat and libido finished for him. Her rump raised higher with her tail to the air to sway in his view.

The fire dragon smirked upon her request. "Oh, I know a spot, but…" he trailed off in his words. The thought of it was enticing, yet felt hesitant to comply with some uncertainty. A slight blush popped from his expression.

The dragoness curved to a frown from the corner of her maw. His reaction seemed genuine, making her think twice after the previous contact. Perhaps it's too early, or neither have just yet became confortable moving this deep in their romance in their age.

And if Flame were to not do it, he may grow distant if we don't do something like this; he could go for another dragoness, she feared, and be alone again. Yet, Flame loved her and maybe can fill her empty void. The thought of mating season for increased lust conflicted with her thoughts: nature at work, or a sensation of pure affection. Maybe he's not ready, she presumed. It could be this fun driving him and me, there is that.

"Well, if you want…" she said, a hint of anticipation and worry in her voice. The pink dragoness pushed herself back on Flame's shoulders without touching his limp part. "I understand you care for me, the same as I do for you, but I don't want to rush this for solely pleasure. Plus, I'm sure mating season is simply driving us at the moment."

Further contemplation filled Flame's thoughts. After several years befriending and knowing his companion better, nothing elated him as much as Ember's presence. Unlike other dragonesses he encountered, a certain flame ignited from her friendly spirit, despite her irrational hope of being with a hero. He always ensured to watch over her when she felt down, even for trivial conversations of her purple hero back then.

"Ember…" he gently called to speak his honest verdict. "I think it's okay." The dragoness' eyes opened with awe, and concentrated on her mate to listen more. "I would love to. No other dragon but you, Ember."

"Really, Flame?..." she whispered, with a glistening brightness in her eyes. "You will?" The dragon caressed her gently, and licked her cheek. Ember closed her eyes to hold her mate as a few tears of joy slid down her face.

Flame finally released her after a few minutes. The dragoness peered down below them to the straws of hay. She scooped a pawful, and locked her eyes on Flame's. With a brief blow on him, he tripped up and fell on his back, and the dragoness swished the leaves beneath her with her tail to scatter them to the air like petals fluttering from a tree. A cloud of leaves seemingly made her disappear at an instant as the fire dragon tried to regain his bearings quickly – after spitting some which lodged into his mouth and between his fangs.

Directly in front of him when the straw scattered into a mess on the bed and even the floor left and right, Ember leaned against a floorboard with her forepaws to hold it. Ember appeared to await the fire dragon of her passion who only admired more of her rosy figure. A few images popped from his mind, seeing his companion age. From hatchlings to being in elementary, playing together, during the few crises around Artisans and Dragon Realms which Spyro ran circles to save worlds, to now living a more adolescent age after some years.

The dragoness raised a brow, noticing him simply idling in place. "Uh, hello? Earth to Flaaame?" she called softly, and waved to him. The fire dragon let out a nervous chuckle and paced over behind her. The flame dragon mounted atop her, aligning his hind legs beside her's. "Oops, sorry, just a bit out of the loop." he hastily excused himself with a nervous chuckle. "Soo…uh… How does this exactly work?"

Ember rolled her eyes. "You must have really been daydreaming there, weren't you?" she shrugged flatly. "We learned this since elementary – and I'm positive other horny dragons are out doing this in mating season. How did you even forget?" While tempted to laugh, it seemed cute and charming since they were new at it – plus Flame's attention span and mindset is of a child at times which elicited a mental facepaw here and there to her.

"Well..." she said, collecting a bunch of the hay to make a mound for her to lie back upon, to look into Flame's eyes with a sly smile. Her paw played with his member – finally again throbbing with anticipation – and pulled it to face her exposed opening. "You put your wee-wee into mine and go in and out until you're happy." she playfully mocked with a giggle.

Flame snapped back into reality from Ember's literal touching demonstration. "Oh, I knew that. I just needed the, uh, blood flowing yeah!" he laughed.

Ember sighed playfully. "Suuure you did."

The dragoness turned once again only to lie on the mound, and finally raised her tail. Flame's eyes set upon her tail hole and moist opening. His veins pumped and pounded faster with his heartbeat, preparing for their moment. The dragon's shaft curved and erected to a full length on the base of her tail poking underneath. He lowered his head next to her, "Are you ready, Ember?" he asked.

Ember squeaked upon the prodding penis. "Yes, I am. …Just be gentle, please." she requested, giving a quick peck on his cheek. It is time, she thought, and rested comfortably against the straw, facing her innocent mate.

The fire dragon pushed the tip of his member against her slit. It was wet and lewd upon his sensitive, soft flesh, and felt an immediate rise of pleasure. The wave of pleasure from her slit vexed him in deep bliss before starting, filling each dragon with anticipation. "W-Wow." he gasped quickly. "I didn't even start, but it felt so good."

"Yes... Flame, it truly does." she spoke once her entrance expanded to intake his tip, feeling him enter her very carefully, like she wanted. His member was already coated with her saliva, making for a more comfortable entrance. Flame's erect part felt slightly cold compared to her internal temperature – likely from his penis in the air, she figured. But the vagina is indeed extremely warm. "Keep going, but be steady, Flame. It might hurt a bit going too fast or deep."

The mating dragon nodded again, and pushed inside slowly. Using a mere inch of his tip, he pushed himself slowly in and out to better grasp the sensual pleasure of their intimacy. The thought of satiating not only their lust but their reciprocated love by going deeper tempted him, but he remained loyal to his word for his dragoness.

The dragoness closed her eyes and breathed deeply with each thrust from Flame. "Yssh, aagh…" she winced quietly a few times in between a few thrusts.

Flame towards her. "Are you still okay, nothing broken or anything?"

The fire dragoness nodded, "No, you're doing nothing wrong." She reassured her mate. "It's only natural, my love."

The flame dragon nodded, and continued to slide himself again. Each gentle movement filled Ember with great delight, feeling his member cool her tight walls. Her forepaw wandered on one of Flame's forelegs wrapped on her chest. It contented her with how tingly and warm it felt inside her. Her soft moans implied more excitement, and the dragon continued to enter slowly deeper within her.

Her mate pumped himself an inch every few minutes in their time of quiet lust. Finally, he penetrated her walls with almost his entire length minus his knot and an inch. Flame moaned in pleasure, as her inner tautness gave much leeway than when they started. Earlier grunts and pants shifted to moans and purrs. It was far smoother to penetrate, and they warmed upon each other's body heat as he embraced her from the chilly weather of the night.

"Phew… It's almost nearly in." he spoke. Upon staring down to her mate, Flame noticed she was no longer biting her lower muzzle. Rather, her mouth agape to a mere slit. The cool air exchanged with her blissful breaths in and out. "So, no more wincing, or are you enjoying yourself?" he checked.

Ember nodded to her mate. "It's all tingly and very, very moist… Was it too much of a surprise after a while?"

Flame chuckled, "Nope, hardly any if you wanted my input. I shouldn't have to ask to know you'd enjoy it."

The dragoness smiled, "Another reason to select no other dragon but you, Flame." Ember closed her eyes to savor each consecutive thrust from her partner. An idea struck in her mind to help satisfy him even more.

"Allow me, Flame," she insisted, "It would be rude if you do everything." By pushing herself slightly from the headboard, her bottom pushed against Flame's stiff member. The fire dragon yelped and peered down. While the dragoness' tail shrouding his view partially, her groin gently tapped his knot. In each press of contact, his breath intensified in sync with her.

"Mmmhmm, any better?"

"Much better, Ember." Flame moaned and continued at the same speed. A rush of excitement took him over from her seductive movement, until her paw pushed against his underbelly. "Good boy. But relax, before you finish too fast while I'm not comfortable."

Flame blushed, and leaned closer on her mate. "Right. Got a bit swept up of the moment," he purred. He pulled himself out to gain some room for her to push, and ensued to repeat her penetration against his own on her. Once their noses touched, he whiffed her warmed breath.

"Thank you, Flame." she responded, rubbing her paw on his scaly neck. Ember once again kissed him passionately. The sweetness of his seminal fluid and their saliva still clung to their tongues and teeth. The thought of having a loving mate amazed her. How Flame agreed with her in the heated moment had a tender aura of completion. The feeling of emptiness escaped out her chest easily as if she was never alone the whole time.

The dragoness moaned after the kiss as the dragon wrapped his forearms around her shoulders and lower chest. "Ahh, Flame, you're getting better at this more and more." she whispered to the side of his head. Flame simply nodded without a word. His eyes shut as he deepened his thrust over time.

The dragon slid his tongue against the back of her neck, feeling a rise of pressure inside his member. "Ember…" he spoke with his bulbous knot swallowed by Ember's loving canal. He gasped a bit, and had some difficulty to pull away. She tried to pull her hips back to push as usual, but shared his difficulty. After a sudden pop, Flame pulled his member to lie atop Ember, poking on the base of her tail.

"Hrm?" she hummed in confusion, looking back to her lover. The fire dragon looked to her.

"I can't keep going in that hole, Ember. If I do, well… our parents wouldn't appreciate a veeery early thought to become grandparents so soon." he explained. The dragoness eased her panting to speak.

"Well… It is sweet to have a thought of just you thinking about how it'd be bad so soon." the dragoness noted with a smile. She flicked her tail left and right, "But you still want to finish this night with a bang, right?" she suggested with the same bedroom eyes begging him to continue.

Flame chuckled to himself, "I'd be disappointing our special night if we just ended here…" he mentioned. Ember nodded and took a deep breath. "Probably some more fellatio and toying with your soft, squishy cock once again. I'll just make you cum in a jiffy, right when–"

A large object pressed on the base of her tail. It was not as slightly sharp as Flame's very own claw. Two forepaws grasped on her waist, seeing the fire dragon rub his tip against her tail hole. Ember purred softly feeling the thickness and force it attempted to squeeze right inside her.

"H-Hey! Flame!" she called to him, and pulled her rump away from him to stand once again. "And just what do you think you're doing atop me?"

Flame craned his head with puzzlement, "Uh, I thought you wanted to finish this up? You just said it seconds ago!" he garbled out. Ember's eyes half-closed, and grasped the ruby necklace on him to pull him closer. "I do… But I think it's my turn to have some fun, darling." she confirmed.

"On your back, Flame. I'll give you quite a gift to remember…" she promised, lying him slowly on his back on the same mound of hay. The fire dragon beat his wings to flutter some hay and balance himself comfortably on the cushion. The fire dragoness climbed atop him, and pushed her rump against his knot. "I don't want you to get soft too soon switching holes…" With that, Ember pressed her tail hole against Flame, "which is why I'd love to continue and finish while you're still excited, love."

Ember continued to press herself against him, but it was quite large compared to his claw inserted in her rectum. Flame moaned at each push. After a few more dives she attempted, his forepaws rested on her hips, and pushed her with greater force to take him inside. Biting their own lower muzzles, they winced; Flame's tip compressed while her anus curved inwards more. Finally, they were successful…

"Oaaaah!" they both whimpered as Flame slipped himself inside of Ember for a few inches. Ember gasped loudly with a thin, wisp of fire escaping her maw. It was drier inside, and most certainly tighter as Ember's tail hole did manage to compensate for Flame's size; only it compressed tightly, appearing as if her tail hole scrunched inwards where he penetrated deeply.

She rested her forepaws atop Flame, taking multiple breaths. "Alright… Oh… Here goes." she spoke, and carefully thrust herself against his member. "For what I called a sword, you're more of a staff, Flame…"

The fire dragon moaned along deeply, feeling himself getting squeezed while penetrating her tight tail hole. "I'd say a lance, if it's hurting so… good." he added, pushing himself gently inside against her rhythm. Ember gasped feeling him squirt some drops of precum inside her. The lubricant eased the passage to take him in and out, but it still hurt her little by little pressing onwards. Her maw opened to give a loving bite to the neck of her mate, scratching his scales.

Flame's tongue flicked from his maw, enjoying the small pain which slowly subsided. Likewise for Ember after a few minutes passed, and it was more comfortable to enter her love's second tunnel. His member pushed more than halfway, which made Ember growl with his lust. "Ah, Flame, to think you were quite a mouthful and silly as a hatchling. This is… unbelievably more satisfying, oh!" she purred and used his chest as support to push deeper than rest on.

The fire dragon huffed more and more, feeling the dragoness penetrate all the way against his knot, intensifying each of their breaths. "Ember… Ah, you're really hot when you get down to the heat of it, my passionate gem…" he complimented her, hoisting her up and down. Ember released her teeth with a metallic taste, watching a few drops of blood making Flame grunt.

"S-Sorry, Flame, I just–"

The fire dragon pecked her neck and licked her cheek. "I-It's alright, I know it's quite a lot to handle…" he reassured her. She simply nodded with a sheen of euphoric tears in her eyes with a smile. The dragoness moaned louder and louder, caressing the rub pendent on Flame's clavicle to rub. "The same with you, my fiery sweetheart." She replied and pushed deep enough to feel Flame's knot. The dragons yelped softly with each other's love minute by minute, shuffling the hay beneath them more and more.

Finally, Ember dropped herself deep against his knot, eventually feeling her tail hole expand to accommodate his size with a jolt of pleasure. "Oh yes, Flaaaame!" she winced, and cradled the partner below her.

Flame gasped with a loud growl of passion, feeling his member slosh against her tail hole and splash a drops of precum to the floor and straw. The strands of straw stuck at each other's crotches with the sticky fluid dripping on them. "E-Ember… Oh, I'm… I'm going to cum once more!" he warned her, and settled her mate on her side beside him. The pink dragoness wrapped her forelegs to embrace Flame tightly as he pounded his knot against her tail hole, crying some tears of joy.

"F-Flame… You're going to make me cum too, at this rate," she shouted, feeling her orgasm near its edge. After several more thrusts, Flame slapped against her tail and didn't pull out. The internal twitches of his member ceased, each lover's maw to the ceiling.

"Ember!"

"Flame!"

The flame dragon's knot filled her tail hole as the fire dragoness' head whipped back with saliva dripped from her tongue. Flame's seed proceeded to squirt and shoot deep inside her, coating her inner walls and leaked out from his member down their thighs, and drizzled the floor. It drizzled with a sticky warmth in her body, and she kissed the dragon in the muzzle once again softly. It lasted for a minute, and the member flopped off from the gaping tail hole, drooping more flaccid and slowly retreating back from within its sheath.

The two dragons softly purred in their osculation, and ended it sweetly with a look to each other's eyes upon separating. The dark night no longer eclipsed the top part of the bed, illuminating the two scaly lovers. Ember simply looked to Flame with endearment in her eyes, and curled beside him. "I love you, Flame."

The fire dragon nestled right beside her to curl, and pecked her muzzle once again. "I love you too, Ember… Stay warm, sweetie." he told her, and slowly drifted away to a peaceful slumber beside him. The pink dragoness awaited a minute for Flame to snore softly, and then scooted close to rest her head against him like a pillow, sleeping peacefully with warm thoughts.

Night-night, the passionate crystal of my eye. Pleasant dreams to you…


Long overdue, but CHAPTER GET. About a week past Valentine's Day, but hey I am fairly satisfied revisiting and revising this after a long while. One last chapter to come up, so pepper thy anguses. Read, review, flame, spam, anything – or whine of me having a life and not updating so soon. Preferably the second if I'm improving or sucking more, readers. :D

P.S. note: I recently started up a forum: "Legends Never Die". And I'm hoping to meet some newcomers and visitors of the Archive to check around there. A new RP/roleplay is relatively fresh and new as well, and it can use a bit more traffic. You can find the link in my profile, but I'd love to expand more. Just me rambling a bit, but it'd be nice to hear from some viewers who'd love to hop in for fun and more there.

I've spoken enough, followers and the passionately curious. Catch you in the flipside!
