Chapter 9: Companions Arc Part 3

Near Gallows Rock

"Jeez, finally found you, hey." Aela's voice said. "Wake up."

Issei's eyes open, but everything was all blurry. Once his eyes were fixed, he got up and saw Aela with a torch in her hands. From the looks of it, it was already night.

"Wh-what happened?" Issei asked.

Aela gives Issei an approving smile, almost like an older sibling giving a younger sibling a 'good job' look.

"Welcome to the pack, brother. I almost envy you. That first time is always the most... intense."

'Why the hell does she have to sound as if she's talking about more the just the transformation?!'

[Are you really going to be thinking about that?!] Ddraig scolding Issei.

{Now now Ddraig, we should let him experience these new sensations and cheer him on. Who knows, he might be lucky if she decides to have a go at him, if not then I might have too~} Maphala teased.

'Please! Just stop!' Issei begged.

Aela then gave Issei an annoyed look. "You gave us even more trouble than Farkas did at his first turning. We even have a celebration plan for you. There's a pack of werewolf hunters camped nearby, at Gallows Rock. The Silver Hand. I think you've met then before. We're going to slaughter them. All of them."

"Whoa whoa whoa!" Issei said. "Killed them? I get the fact they kill werewolves, but there has to be a deeper reason for all this right?"

Aela replied. "Issei, I need you to understand that this is The Silver Hand. They've been killing off members of our kind in the past and skinning the pelts of fallen werewolves as their trophies. That is why we are here, to hit them hard, but if it's a history lesson between us and them you want then you'll have to ask Kodlak. Now come on! Skjor's already scouted ahead and we don't need him taking all the fun. But before we continue on, here's your stuff."

Aela passes him a sack full of Issei's armor, Ascalon, along with all the rest of his stuff.

"When you transformed, you shredded your stuff off and bolted out the city."

Issei smiles at Aela. "Thanks, much appreciated."

Aela nodded, turned and jogged toward the keep. Issei then started to chase after her. After a while, he found her examining two dead silver hand members near the front of Gallows Rock.

"Hmm, Skjor's handy work. Come, we best catch up or else he'll take all the fun." Aela said.

"Ladies first." Issei said motioning towards the door.

Aela punches his arm playfully. "Call me a lady one more time and I'll eat you~"

Issei was suddenly hit with a whiff of Aela's scent as she walked passed him.

'Was it just me, or did she smelled sweet?'

[It's your senses, now that your a werewolf you can hear, smell, and see better than any normal individual.]

{Also on another note. Ahem, bad Issei! No sniffing at women! Unless it's me than by all means~}

Issei thanked Ddraig for the reminder but ignored Mephala's tease.

Once he entered he found a gate closed to prevent anyone from entering. Aela even tried lifting the gate, even with her werewolf strength wasn't enough. Luckily, Issei found the chain in the wall and proceed through the stairs. When they entered a room, they encountered three Silver Hands ready to kill them. While Aela dew her bow, Issei gripped his sword. The first one took an arrow in the head. Issei manages to dodge, evade and manages to kill two of the Silver Hands.

Issei looks at one of the silver swords and picks it up. Wasn't long before he starts to feel a burning sensation, he then looks to see the silver sword handle is slowly burning his skin. Dropping the sword to see his palm is red.

'Guess I shouldn't be surprised, silver is a werewolf's weakness.'

[True, but since you also have dragon blood your weakness to silver is like touching an oven that's warm instead of burning hot.]

After many Silver Hand encounters and several traps, the duo made it to the leader's hold up. When they entered, not only they found the leader along with three more Silver Hand members, but also the dead body of Skjor.

To say Aela was pissed was an understatement. If looks could kill then the leader would've been dead by now.

"Well." The leader said. "It appears that I'll be adding not one, but three dogs skins to my collection."

"Yeah. Not gonna happen." Issei said. "The only people who are going to die is all of you."

As the leader gives the signal, all five hunters charge at Issei and Aela with their swords at hand. Issei grips his sword and began to swing them at the three hunters while Aela took on the other two. After intense minutes went by, it was only Issei and the leader alone. The leader then took out his Silver Battle Axe. The leader brought his axe to the side and swung it horizontal towards Issei, but he manages to block it with his sword.

After a few parries, as the leader was ready to swing again, Blackheart shouted. "FUS!"

The force that Issei released was enough to lose the leader's balance. Seizing an opportunity, Issei kicked the bandit in the knee to knock him to the floor, in one fast motion, Issei cuts the bandit's head off.

Issei inhaled some air and said. "Aela, the leader is dead. Aela?"

Issei looked to see Aela on her knees, in front of Skjor with blood flowing out of his chest.

Aela cried. "You idiot! I knew we should of brought more Shield Brothers!"

"Aela." Issei said. "I'm sorry."

She looked at him with rage in her eyes and yelled. "I don't want your pity! I want you to inform everyone what has happen here!"

As she got up, Issei asked. "And where are you going?"

Aela replied. "I can still hear few of those Silver Hands left in the fort. I am going to avenge his death, by killing off the rest!"

Before she was going to leave, Issei held on to one of her arms and said. "There is no way I am letting you go by yourself. You need help."

"No I don't." Aela said as she smacked Issei's hand off. "Just go."

Irritated, Issei said. "I am not letting you go. I get it that you and the old man were close but…"

Before he was going to finish, Aela punched Issei across his face that sends him flying away from her.

"You have no idea what I am going through!" Aela screamed. "Skjor was like a father to me! He taught me how to control my Beast Blood and my powers! If I die, then I will see him in the Hunting Grounds!"

And with that, Aela turned her back and rushed off into the distance, disappearing in sight. As Issei got up, he said. "Great, now I have to stop a girl who's furious with grief before she kills herself. Just hope she doesn't kill me in the process."

As Issei looks around, he said. "And now I have absolutely no idea where to look or how to find her. "Think Issei! Think! How can I find someone if…"

He stopped mid-sentence as he smell something sweet in the air. The scent made Issei shiver through his body and made his spine crawl.

"What is that sweet smell?" Issei asked as he started to follow the smell.

Going completely by instinct, Issei followed the scent to an unknown source. After an hour, Issei arrived at an abandon prison. As he looks around, he heard a loud roar from within the prison. Realizing that it might be Aela in her werewolf form, he marched into the prison to find her. Once he entered the prison and made his way through the hallways, he found Aela naked in her human form trapped inside a holding cell. As five of the Silver Hand members laughed, Issei silently sneaked near them.

He heard one of them saying. "What should we do with her?"

Another one said. "Since we weaken her, we can always have fun with her. What do you think?"

"Are you suggesting we screw this beastly whore?" Another said. "Fuck that, let's just kill this bitch."

Before Issei was going in for the kill, one of them look around and said. "Hey, where is Dulvan?"

All of a sudden, there was a powerful blow being delivered to Issei's side of the face that caused him to fall down the stairs. When he turned to see who hit him, he saw a 6'-5ft tall Orc walking towards him. Everyone looks at Issei and was wondering who he is.

As that moment, Aela screamed. "Issei, you fucking idiot! Why are you here?!"

"Ah." The last one said. "He's with you? Well no matter. Dulvan, take him out."

"With pleasure." Dulvan said.

Issei took out his swords and said. "Bring it."

He then swung his swords at Dulvan, but he evaded Issei's attack and knee kicked him in the stomach. The impact that made Issei stumble a bit. Issei was surprised on how strong this Orc was. However, Issei sends a powerful uppercut to Dulvan's chin only to send him a few steps back. Dulvan then took out two Silver War Axes and began to swing them at Issei.

As Issei was dodging Dulvan's attack, Aela yelled "Just get out of here! Save yourself!"

Issei replied. "As if I'm leaving you!"

Suddenly, there was a short pain in Issei's back that made him grunt. And arrow from one of the Silver Hand was shot into Issei's left shoulder. Distracted by the pain, Issei was wide open for an attack. Dulvan brought his axes to the back of Issei's knees penetrating his flesh.

Feeling satisfied the his opponent(victim) isn't going anywhere, Dulvan regroups with his companions, he said to them. "After we kill him, what are we going to do with the bitch?"

One of them replied. "You can do whatever you want with her."

Dulvan smiled and said. "With pleasure."

As he opens the gate, Issei, struggling to get up with blood flowing from his shoulder, yelled. "Get away from her!"

Dulvan laughed and said. "What can you do?"

Reaching down his pants, Blackheart saw this and said. "Get the fuck away from here!"

Dulvan then looks at him and said. "There is nothing you can do."

In rage, Issei then cried. "GET…AWAY…FROM…HER!"

All of a sudden, Issei's eyes turned from normal brown to green slits. His arms grew longer, his legs begin to arch a certain way whiles his muscles grew bigger. Black fur started to grow all over his body and his teeth grew sharp as fangs. However, instead having a hunchback and a boney figure like a normal werewolf, Issei was standing up straight that made him stand over 8 feet tall and his figure was more built than any other werewolf.

(essentially, Van Helsing's werewolf form, highly recommend to watch.)

The arrow and the axe that were on him fell to the floor and his wounds were healed.

As Issei roared at the Silver Hand, they drew out their weapons at him. When Issei looks at Dulvan, Issei charge towards him and pierced his claws into Dulvan's chest, killing him instantly. Once Dulvan fell dead, the five remaining Silver Hand charged at Issei with their silver swords at hand. With a growl, Issei charged at the Silver Hand and jumps right over them. With one swipe, Issei used his claws and crushed two Silver Hand's heads. As one of them swung their swords, Issei caught their arm and ripped it out of their socket. When they cried in pain, Issei swung his claws, ripping the hunter's face right off. Terrified by the turn of events, the remaining two Silver Hands began to run for their lives. But Issei wasn't done yet. With intense speed, Issei caught up with one of them and dug his fangs in the hunter's head and crushed it in his mouth. Before the last one reached for the door, Issei grabbed them and pulled them towards him. As the Silver Hand screamed, Issei thrust his claws into the hunter's back, picks him up and rips the hunter's body, separating their upper body from his lower body. As Issei drops the hunter, leaving them with their guts and organs all over the floor, he made his way to Aela's cell where she is standing naked. Issei stood on all fours as he approached her. He gently places his forehead to hers as she gently runs her hands on Issei's wolf-like face. Just as the two were staring into each other's eyes, Issei returned to his human form. Aela observed his wounds just to see that they were already healed.

After Issei revert back to his human form, Aela slapped him across his face and said. "What were you thinking?! You could have gotten killed!"

irritated, Issei said. "You are welcome for saving your life!"

"I am a proud hunter!" Aela cried. "Skjor trained me to become to best hunter! He was like a father to me!"

"Aela." Issei said. "If Skjor was like a father to you then you'd know he wouldn't want you to be consumed with rage. Gotta give yourself time to grieve, Aela. Experience all its stages, feel them, let them play out. Shock, anger, depression... then finally acceptance." Said Issei.

Aela just looked at Issei with an angry look on her face, she was just so angry that Skjor, the person who was basically her father in all but blood.

In that instant, tears were flowing down her face. When Issei placed her hands on her shoulder, Aela placed her head in his chest. As Issei wrapped his arms around her head, Aela was crying and breaking down in tears. As Issei placed his head on hers, he smelled the familiar scent he smelled earlier on Aela's hair. After a few minutes, Aela finished her sadden moment.

"Better?" Issei asked.

Aela replied. "Not that much."

Issei then said. "Don't worry, Aela. I promise to stand by your side. You are going to go through this, you're stronger than this."

"Thank you." Aela smiled and said. "You sure feel hard down there."

Confused, Issei said. "Sorry what?"

When the two parted and Aela looks at Issei's body, he then looks and begins to panic. He was COMPLETELY NAKED!

"What the fuck" Issei yelled. "The hell happen to my clothes?!"

As he was looking around for spare clothes, Aela laughed and said. "When we transform into werewolves, our clothes gets torn up. That's why we carry spares."

When she grabbed a sac bag that she dropped across the room and started dressing, there was one thing was confusing her. How was Issei's transformation different from the others?

"Issei." Aela said. "How is your transformation different from mine and the others?"

Issei said. "My blood is unique in a certain way, it could be that my blood enhanced it."

"What do you mean?" Aela asked.

"believe or not, I actually have some dragon blood in me, allows me to react faster than any normal person, hell that's why I was able to go toe to toe with Vilkas out in the yard."

Once he put on the clothes, Aela said. "Thank you."

Issei looked at her and said. "For what?"

Aela said "For caring for me." As Aela hugs him, Issei moaned as he smelled the same sweet smell on her again.

"Issei?" Aela asked. "What is wrong?"

Issei replied. "You smell really nice."

When the two separate, Aela sniffed and said "I smell like sweat and crap. Why would you say…"

Realizing what he meant, Aela laughed. "Haha! After all this the first thing on your mind is mating?"

"Hey! I can't help it, your body is releasing hormones. Thanks to my new sense of smell…damn, that smells so good."

"Odd." Aela said. "When Farkas and Vilkas receive this gift was when they were young. They were going through the same thing you are going through."

She then realizes and said. "How old are you?"

Issei replied. "17."

"No wonder." Aela said. "Since you are young and at that age, your Beast Blood is boiling right now.

Any way to stop it?" Issei asked.

Aela then comes up with an idea and smiles. "You know, there are multiple ways to release that energy. First is battling, the second is hunting, and the final one is intercourse~"

Issei looks at Aela and can immediately recognize that glint in her eyes, the same look Akeno would give him daily.

Aela moved closer to him, they were now inches away from each other. "I think we both know the best way given our situation."

(LEMON WARNING)

Before Issei could respond Aela smashed her lips with Issei's. They broke the kiss for a second.

Issei began to notice how beautiful Aela is. Her fair skin, her hair kissed by fire, but what caught Issei's attention the most were her dazzling blue eyes.

Issei initiated the next one. He opened his mouth to let her tongue explore it. They fought for dominance in an exquisite battle that he never wanted to end.

Meanwhile, she had started to attack his shirt. She was halfway to making it undone when she stopped. She must have thought it was not worth it. She went for his breeches instead.

Once the both of them got their clothes off he cupped her breasts almost immediately.

This made Aela moan softly. "Thought you'd go for my ass, guess you're more of a breast man huh?"

Issei chuckles nervously. "Yeah, could say I've got a thing for breasts, still, everything about you is beautiful."

Issei started his way down. He kissed her neck, each side on her collarbones and in the crook of it. He went to her left nipple which he sucked slightly but it was not his goal. The next kiss was under her right teat. He felt her shudder then as he moved on to her belly button. Finally, he reached her core and let his tongue play there. He heard her gasp and moan, she had her hands in his hair and clearly used the wall to stabilise herself.

Eventually, she tugged on his hair to make him come back up. He was slightly disappointed that he did not get to finish his work down there, but he did as she wished. She kissed him, probably tasting herself on his lips.

"I want you, I can't wait." She panted. He chuckled lightly at the urgency of her tone.

He guided them to the hard stone floor. He aimed to be on top, but Aela had other plans. She pushed him on his back and put her legs around his thighs. She took his manhood in her hand and stroke it a few times. Issei almost lost."

He was close again when he felt himself slide inside her. His huntress bounced up and down on him with her eyes closed and her back arched. He was delighted by the sight. He put his hands on her hips to guide her and match their rhythms. Their moans echoed one another.

She bent over to claim his lips again and, as his tongue twirled around hers, he began to feel her walls tighten. It felt so good he thought this was it. But she had one last surprise for him.

"Issei!…" She let out his name almost pleadingly. She collapsed onto him as he spent himself inside her.

They were both shaking and trying to catch their breaths. He could scarcely believe what had just happened. She rolled off of him and pressed herself to his side.

"Was this your first?" Aela asked making small circles on issei's chest.

"Yeah, it was." Said Issei.

That earned a pinch to his cheek. "Don't lie to me, There is no way that is true considering that thing you did with your mouth." She said pressing small kisses to his ribcage.

"Did that feel good?" He asked with a smile. He felt her nod. "I just wanted to kiss you there. Do you want me to do it again?" He asked teasingly. The glow that lit her eyes was adorable.

"That depends, still feel the the call of the hunt?" Aela asked.

"Not as strong as before." Issei replied.

"Good." Aela kissed him on the lips again. "Let be on our way home."

(LEMON END)

Whiterun

After a hard day and recovering Skjor's body, Issei and Aela returned to Whiterun. When Issei arrived at his house, he turned to Aela and said. "I'll see you later. Be sure to tell everyone what happen."

"I will." Aela said. "And thank you for being there."

Before she left, she gives Issei a quick kiss in the lips, grabbed the cart that had Skjor's body in it and heads back to Jorrvaskr. As Issei entered his home, Lydia rushed up to him and said. "Where have you been?! I was worried about you!"

Trying to change the subject, Issei said. "Aw, you were worried about me?"

"Don't change the subject. Where were you?"

Issei replied. "Just out on a job."

Lydia said. "Then why do you smell like a wet dog?"

{Because he has the Beast Blood within him.}

"What?!" Lydia yelled. "You have the Beast Blood in you?!"

"Yeah." Issei said. "It happened so fast. So yeah, I got to transform into a werewolf."

"Well." Lydia said. "Are you alright at least?"

"A bit." Issei said.

Seeing something wrong, Lydia said. "What happen? When you first heard about this, you were exciting."

Issei replied. "It's Aela. I am worried about her. One of the members of The Circle died. She looked up to him like a father figure."

"So now what? Now that you have the Beast Blood in you, what are you going to do?" Lydia asked.

Issei replied. "What I do best. Let me get my gear and head on up to see the old man."

When he walked passed Lydia, he smelled her scent and let out a quiet moan.

"Damn it!" Issei thought. "This super smell is going to drive me crazy!"

When he went into his room, Lydia said. "What's wrong with him?"

{He is becoming a horny dog right now, since he is young and is in that age, his animal instinct is kicking in. So I watch out if I were you.} Mephala said.

Lydia shook her head and said "Great, not only I have to deal with an annoying Daedra, but also a horny werewolf Thane. This sucks."

THE END

(Long time no chat guys, I know I know it's been a while since my last chapter.)

(Lemme know what you think of the first lemon I wrote.)

(Till next time!)
