From Human to Dragon to God

by Eric Vall

  “Good morning, ladies and my lord,” the old centaur greeted us with a dip of his head. His gray braid swung around as he turned to each of us, and his horse tail swished back and forth.

  “Senan, I hope we haven’t woken you,” Alyona responded with a curtsy. “We’d like to come speak with you and the other history keepers, if we may.”

  “Of course, princess.” Senan’s pale blue eyes gazed over the three women before they settled on me. “And you, my lord?”

  “I’ll be returning to the castle,” I grumbled.

  Part of me hoped he would invite me in this time, considering everything I’d done so far. I was curious about the history keepers and their temple, but apparently, keeping track of their history meant they hated my kind the most.

  “It was good to see you again, Lord Evan.” Senan smiled at me.

  “Yeah,” I muttered. “You, too.”

  “We’ll be back to the castle as soon as we’re done,” Alyona said as she stood on her tiptoes to press a chaste kiss to my lips.

  “You better be,” I growled and kissed her back.

  I turned to Ravi and kissed her cheek, and then I kissed Laika between her soft, gray ears. When I was finished, I turned toward the stairs to leave and slowly descended from the temple.

  I heard the temple door shut behind me and began to make my way back to the castle.

  “Lord Evan!” a man’s voice called to me from the area near the market.

  I looked at the crowd, but I didn’t see anyone I knew, so I walked closer to the market before a hand grasped my elbow.

  “Lord Evan!” a centaur I didn’t recognize exclaimed as he reached into the basket on his other arm. “That’s you, right?”

  The centaur looked slightly familiar, but I couldn’t place him. He had long, jet-black hair that flowed freely down his back and deep brown eyes. His horse body was the same brown as his eyes, and his black horse tail swayed back and forth as he talked.

  “Yeah,” I confirmed. “And you are?”

  “Oh!” The man pulled a fruit from his basket and handed it to me. “I’m Rafe, River’s brother. I heard you liked the fruit from my trees.”

  Ah, that explained why he looked a bit familiar. He resembled his brother, though he did not have the muscular physique or loads of tattoos, and he was quite a bit younger.

  “I do like them,” I confirmed as I palmed the fruit. It was the same kind I’d picked on our last trip to the temple. I took a bite, and it was even better than the one I’d had before.

  “This one is a little riper,” Rafe explained. “I figured you’d like it even more.”

  “I can taste the difference,” I agreed and nodded. “I appreciate it.”

  “Thank you,” the centaur said with a grin. “Would you mind telling River I gave it to you? And that we spoke?”

  “Uh, sure?” I shrugged.

  “I know it seems silly,” Rafe sighed as his grin disappeared, “and I don’t mean to bother you with my troubles, my lord, but River won’t talk to me right now. He was disappointed I decided to work as a farmer instead of joining the Sagittarius Order.”

  “I see,” I murmured.

  “I just didn’t want to be another one of my brother’s soldiers,” Rafe explained. “It was hard enough to live with him as my older brother since he was such a star in training. Everyone always talked about how amazing he was. It was exhausting, but really, I didn’t even want to join.”

  “Why not?” I wondered. “Isn’t it a big deal?”

  “Sure, but if you don’t enjoy it, does it matter how big of a deal it is?” the centaur asked as he raised an eyebrow. “I hated everything related to the Order already, but when I discovered how much I loved growing plants, there was no way I was signing up to be a soldier.”

  “Makes sense to me,” I said with a shrug. “So, why is he not over it?”

  “I don’t know,” Rafe admitted with a furrowed brow. “That’s what I’d like to find out.”

  “Ohh,” I drawled. “Well, I can definitely mention seeing you when I return to the palace, which is where I’m headed now.”

  “Please, just let him know,” Rafe pleaded. “I want him to know I’m thinking about him.”

  “I will,” I promised. “Thank you again for the fruit.”

  “It’s called a Riverfruit.” Rafe smiled sadly. “I named it after my brother.”

  “Then thank you for the Riverfruit,” I said with a nod.

  The young centaur nodded in return and then stepped back into the crowd.

  I shook my head as I continued to walk back to the palace. I’d never understand why family members just stopped talking to each other over the dumbest shit sometimes. So what if the kid didn’t want to join the family business? Life was too short for that nonsense.

  Before I knew it, I was back at the palace, but just as I was about to go in and find the queen, I heard River shouting from the courtyard. So, I turned to see him yelling and whistling with his fingers in his mouth at the Sagittarius Order while they did various exercises in unison.

  Since my encounter with Rafe was still fresh in my mind, I strode over to where the commander stood in front of the ranks. He eyed me as I approached, but he didn’t stop shouting commands, and the centaur warriors moved fluidly as they followed River’s routine.

  “Morning, River,” I greeted the centaur.

  “Good morning, Lord Evan,” he responded with a suspicious look in his eyes.

  “Do you have a minute?” I asked.

  “What does that mean?” The commander turned to look at me in confusion.

  “Sorry, could I talk to you for a minute?” I clarified.

  “Five minute break!” River called out to the warriors as he gestured for me to lead the way.

  I walked a few yards away from where the Sagittarius Order shuffled around in groups as they relaxed.

  “I met your brother Rafe this morning,” I started.

  “Oh, don’t waste my time with nonsense,” River scoffed and turned back toward the warriors.

  “Hey!” I growled and grabbed his arm. “He told me you won’t talk to him because he didn’t want to join the Order. Is that true?”

  “He’s a disgrace,” River muttered. “We are a family of warriors, and he failed. But what business is it of yours?”

  “He didn’t fail or disgrace the family by choosing a path he enjoys,” I argued. “And I know you guys live a long time or whatever, but you never know what will happen. Life is too short not to spend it with family.”

  “What do you know about centaur families?” River countered. “You’ve been here for a week.”

  “I don’t know much about centaur families,” I admitted, “but I know a lot about missing family members. I’d give anything to be able to talk to my birth mother again, but we didn’t have a stupid fight, she’s just gone. Gone forever. So, don’t tell me a stupid thing like his choice of job is a good enough reason not to talk to someone who loves you and obviously cares about having you in his life.”

  River studied me and exhaled, and I knew my face was flushed with agitation. I didn’t talk about my mother a lot, but Rafe’s sadness brought up the feelings of frustration at not being able to tell her everything. Julia was a wonderful adoptive mother, but she was not a replacement, and someone who had his own brother right here in the same city and refused to speak to him just pissed me off.

  “Okay,” River murmured and averted his gaze. “Maybe you’re right. I’ll go talk to him after training.”

  “Thank you.” I gave him a sharp nod and turned on my heels to head into the castle.

  I could feel River’s gaze on my back, but I continued walking. I’d kept my word to Rafe, and hopefully, River meant what he’d said.

  So, I pushed open the doors to the palace and strolled inside. The castle seemed empty, and I wasn’t sure where all the servants and staff had gone. I wondered where Aaliyah and the dryads were, but then my attention was focused elsewhere.

&
nbsp; Mona stood in the hallway to my right, and she wore a gaudy gold necklace that covered her bare breasts, and a sheet of gold fabric was tied in a knot at her hip to reveal most of her tan leg. The sheet was almost transparent, and I could see it was the only garment she wore.

  “I made sure we were alone in the palace,” Mona murmured as she leaned against the doorway and put a hand on her hip.

  “Just you and me, huh?” I rumbled as desire began to course through my veins.

  “That’s right,” she whispered.

  My gaze inched down her slender body to her bare feet, and I growled as I stormed over to her and grabbed her hips. Finally, I pressed my lips to hers and felt the queen moan against me. So, I shoved my tongue between her plump lips and dragged it across hers, and then I brought my right hand up under her necklace to her breast and kneaded it while I kissed her.

  I loved the feeling of her body against mine, and I pressed her against the doorway and pushed my leg between hers. I knew the fabric of my pants would rub against her bare pussy, and I slid my leg back and forth as she gasped.

  “Oh!” Mona cried out, and she pulled her mouth away from mine for a moment. “Come to my room.”

  I grinned and picked her up by her hips. She wrapped her legs around my waist and her arms around my neck as she brought her mouth back to mine. We kissed hard as I carried her to her chambers and fumbled with the door, and without leaving my lips, she reached back and slid the handle over. I kicked the door the rest of the way open and stepped into her room before I kicked it shut again.

  My eyes scanned the room, and I couldn’t decide which place I wanted to mate with the queen.

  Fuck it, I’d do it everywhere.

  I gently set Mona on her gold-framed bed and reached behind her to remove the necklace. I stared at her hard, pink nipples as I tossed the jewelry on the table near the bed, and then I guided her back onto the mattress and leaned over to flick her nipple with my tongue.

  “Oh, gods, yes!” Another moan escaped Mona’s lips as she closed her eyes and dug her nails into the back of my neck to push me closer to her body.

  I opened my mouth to taste her entire succulent breast as she arched her back with desire. My tongue flicked and swirled around her pink nipples, and I felt my arousal press against her leg while she moaned. I moved my other hand to the apex between her legs and felt her wet craving under the golden sheet. Then I tore the fabric from her hips and rubbed my thumb along the lips of her dripping pussy.

  “Mmmmm,” Mona groaned as I teased her. “Lord Evannnn.”

  I kissed her breast and slowly trailed down her body until I was on my knees in front of her wet slit. I gently blew on her mound and watched as goosebumps rose on the skin of her inner thighs. Then I plunged my tongue inside her and thumbed her clit.

  “Ohhh!” she groaned. “What is it that you are doing?”

  “This?” I asked as I licked the flat part of my tongue over her clit.

  “Yessssss … ” she sighed.

  “No one has ever done this to you before?” I snickered.

  “No,” she gasped. “Please, Lord Evan. Do not stop.”

  “I won’t.” I fucked her with my tongue while she gasped for air above me, and the centaur queen wrapped her hands around my head, dug her fingers into my hair, and climbed closer to her peak.

  I moved my tongue up to flick her clit, slid my finger inside her, and began to pump in and out. Then, after a few minutes, I sucked hard on her swollen nub and pushed a second finger inside her.

  The queen screamed with pleasure as her juicy orgasm bubbled over the surface, and she came all over my hand and face.

  “Oh, my gods!” Mona cried out while the waves of her climax shook her body. Once she calmed down enough, she looked down at me as she panted from the aftershocks. “The deal was just to get me pregnant. You didn’t have to do that for me.”

  “I wanted to taste you,” I chuckled as I stood up and untied my trousers.

  “Amazing,” she sighed, and her eyes were filled with lust as she gazed at me. “Your fiancée was correct. You are very skilled.”

  “Well, we’re just getting started.” I smirked.

  “Oh!” She seemed shocked as my arousal sprang out in front of her, but she recovered, grabbed my erection, and pumped her hand up and down its length.

  “Fuck, Mona,” I groaned and watched her play with my cock.

  Then I couldn’t wait any longer, so I pushed her back onto the bed and shoved my dick inside her still-dripping pussy.

  “Yes, Evan!” Mona cried as I plunged deep inside her and pulled back until only the tip remained. Then I thrust again and pumped in and out of her slick tunnel. Her body quivered under me, and then her walls tightened, and a gush of her sweet liquid rolled over my cock.

  “You cum easily,” I growled in her ear as I fucked her.

  “Just the thought … ” she hissed. “The … thought of you filling me with your seed and giving me a daughter. Please … Lord Evan. Give me a daughter. Breed with me. I need your powerful dragon seed in my womb.”

  Her words made my head spin, and I felt my own climax building, so I pumped my cock harder. She lifted her hips off the bed, and my erection slid all the way into her before my peak hit.

  “I’m going to fill you,” I growled.

  “Yes!” she screamed as her tunnel clenched around me. “Give me a baby!”

  I groaned as my cock flexed, and then we both gasped as I poured a hot load of my dragon seed deep into the queen. The centaur-shifter was already climaxing, but her body bent back as I filled her, and her spasming body caused my balls to tense and release over and over again as I gave her womb what it wanted.

  As my cock finally finished spraying gallons of sperm deep inside of her, Mona sat up with wide green eyes.

  “Alyona did the spell, right?” she asked.

  “Yes, we did it this morning,” I chuckled.

  “Ah,” she sighed in relief as she threw herself back onto the bed.

  “Don’t get too comfortable,” I warned her.

  The queen sat up on her elbows and looked at me with a raised brow.

  “The spell is good for the whole day.” I winked.

  I watched the centauress’ eyes light up and then drop down to my cock that already stood back at attention. She looked back up at me and gave me a sexy smile before she moved to her knees in front of me and wrapped her arms around my neck. She pressed a kiss to my lips as she slid one hand down to my arousal, which was still wet from our orgasms.

  Mona slid her hand up and down my shaft, and then she flipped to her stomach as I stood at the edge of the bed. She slid my cock into her mouth and ran her tongue along the base.

  “Oh, fuck,” I moaned as she slid my arousal in and out of her mouth. I grabbed a handful of her russet hair and moved my hips in time with her head.

  The queen moaned, and the sound vibrated down my shaft as she reached up with her other hand and massaged my sack. I nearly climaxed again at the sensation, but I growled instead as I felt her almost gag as she tried to take my full cock into her mouth.

  Fucking hell, she was so hot. Her round ass bounced and jiggled as she moved, and the muscles in her back rippled while she moved her head up and down my erection.

  I couldn’t take it anymore, so I growled again as I pulled my cock out of her mouth and scooped her up off the bed.

  “Evan!” she giggled as I carried her naked body over to the golden dresser and set her down on its edge.

  I pushed her legs wide apart and shoved my cock inside her again. She wrapped her legs around my hips to push me even deeper into her dripping canal. Then she leaned back on the desk, and I watched as her full breasts bounced with every one of my thrusts. I slid my hands under her ass to lift her up, and my dick reached even further inside her.

  Suddenly, her whole body tightened again, and her orgasm sent another shriek from her mouth. Her pussy clenched around my dick as her climax sent tremors through her, and while s
he was climaxing, I bent down and licked her nipple. Her back arched with pleasure, and her juices came dripping out of her mound.

  As soon as her orgasm was over, I slid out of her and flipped her over, so her belly was on the dresser. Her pussy dripped in front of me, and her plump ass was red from my thrusts. I growled with desire and plunged my cock into her again from behind.

  “Yes!” Mona cried out.

  I pumped my cock in and out of the queen’s slippery tunnel as she gripped the other side of the desk. Her chestnut hair was wild as it draped over her back and the furniture, and it swished back and forth with my every movement. I pounded into her until I felt her body constrict again, and she came so hard I watched goosebumps dimple the skin on her back.

  I couldn’t contain mine any longer, and I dumped another load of my dragon seed into her waiting canal. I felt my own orgasm rack my body with waves of pleasure as I marked the queen as one of my mates, and a possessive grin stretched across my face.

  I looked forward to marking her all day long.

  And then I’d give her dozens of children.
