Dragon Emperor 10: From Human to Dragon to God

by Eric Vall

  “Oh, uh, yeah,” I said as I lifted my foot from Abel’s chest. “My bad, dude.”

  Abel scrambled to his feet and brushed the sand from his layered attire as he shot me a quizzical look.

  The crowd began to dwindle as the people left the arena, and I shifted back into my human form to follow Vallen and Abel back outside.

  The sun had started to set, and a few stars already sprinkled across the sky.

  “Oh, drat!” Vallen said as we stopped just outside the arena.

  “What?” Naomi asked, and my group walked out behind her.

  “It’s starting to get dark already,” he replied with a frown. “We’ll have to go see the fields tomorrow.”

  “Ugh,” Polina groaned.

  “We are very curious,” Trina explained.

  “It sounds like something we need to see,” Marina insisted.

  “I agree that the issue sounds like it’s right up your alley, but it doesn’t make sense to go look at a whole field in the dark,” I replied. “It can wait until morning.”

  “And I will provide you with living quarters for the duration of your stay!” Vallen decided. “My staff will be happy to accommodate you.”

  “That is very gracious of you, Lord Vallen,” Alyona said with a smile.

  “I’m honored to host you!” Vallen responded and clapped his hands. “Now, I’ll have them start to prepare dinner for all of our guests. Abel, please notify the kitchen staff.”

  “Of course, Your Majesty,” Abel replied with a nod. Then he took off in a jog toward the castle.

  The rest of us began a slow walk down the stone road back to Vallen’s palace. Vallen and Naomi spoke in hushed tones with their heads close together, while the rest of us stayed back.

  “Well, it certainly was not a trap,” Laika murmured as she kept a watchful eye on the lizards.

  “Nope, not a trap at all,” I chuckled. “Maybe we’re just suspicious of everyone.”

  “That’s how you stay alive,” Aaliyah chimed in.

  “She’s right,” Ravi chirped. “We can’t allow Lord Vallen’s kindness to bring our guard down completely. That’s how we were fooled by Cesar.”

  “True,” I agreed. “Just stay vigilant.”

  Everyone nodded in agreement as we reached the castle doors.

  “You may wait in the hall while I check in on the dinner preparations,” Vallen declared as he glided through the room and out another doorway.

  I gestured to the chairs and couch toward the left side of the room, and my women sat down to wait.

  “You were impressive in the arena,” Naomi murmured as she walked over to stand next to me, and she stood so close, I could feel her hot breath on my neck.

  “I thought you’d be pretty familiar with how impressive I am,” I replied with a smug grin as I turned to face her.

  “Oh, I only meant your magic,” she said with an eye roll and took a step back. “Whatever other skills you may have are of no use to me.”

  “I seriously doubt that,” I chuckled.

  “Anyway, you wield several types of magic,” Naomi said. “So, it must be true dragons can assimilate the powers of their prey?”

  “Yes,” I confirmed. “You’re familiar with dragons?”

  “Oh, we’ve all grown up with the stories,” she explained and shrugged. “The lizards have always had some kind of fascination with dragons. It seems most of our men would prefer to be a dragon than a lizard.”

  “Well, yeah,” I scoffed. “We’re pretty awesome.”

  “Yeah, the most badass creature,” Marina chirped.

  “But Lord Evan is the most badass of all the dragons,” Trina insisted.

  “Probably the most badass of all the creatures in Rahma,” Polina corrected her, and all three sisters giggled.

  “It seems the dryads are quite impressed with you as well,” Naomi said, and a look of hunger flashed across her face before she returned to her blank expression. “I have something I think you’ll be interested to see.”

  “Oh?” My interest was piqued. “What’s that?”

  “It’s better to show you,” she asserted. “Come on.”

  I looked over at Alyona, and she smiled and motioned for me to go.

  A fleeting thought crossed my mind that the lady mage was trying to get me alone, but even if she was setting me up for a trap, I knew I could handle it. Then I turned back to Naomi, who grabbed my hand and pulled me toward an open hallway. I let the lizard lead me down the hall as she weaved around the staff and then to a staircase. We followed the winding steps, and the further we ascended, the more I could feel power pulsating around us.

  We reached the top of the steps, and Naomi faced me with excitement dancing in her amber eyes.

  “Ready?” she asked.

  “Let’s see it,” I replied.

  Then she pushed open the door.

  Chapter 3

  I inhaled a sharp breath as I gazed around me in awe.

  Layers of jewels and gold were encrusted in the sandy walls of the room, and their colors flashed brilliantly as Naomi sent small orbs of black fire to light the torches. Gold, emeralds, and pearls filled every inch of the walls around us except the wall to our left, and I stepped further into the room to get a better view. This wall was covered from floor to ceiling by a mirror, and it gave the illusion that the room continued beyond its surface. The floor had been coated with a layer of gold, and the pathway to a pedestal of water was paved with green jewels.

  I made my way to the pedestal, and I looked into its basin. The water inside glimmered a beautiful turquoise color, and a single goldfish flitted around under the surface.

  “What do you think?” Naomi murmured behind me.

  “It’s amazing,” I breathed. “Are you Lord Vallen’s mage or something?”

  “What do you mean?” she scoffed.

  “Well, he obviously built this whole cultivation room for you,” I replied as I continued to look around. “You have to be pretty important to get something like this.”

  “He still has faith one day I’ll bear an heir to the throne,” she explained with a scowl. “But that won’t happen.”

  “You’re his wife?” I raised a confused eyebrow. The two hadn’t seemed like lovers at all, but I still wasn’t used to all the different cultures in Rahma.

  “Gods, no!” Naomi wrinkled her nose in disgust. “He’s my brother.”

  “Ohhh,” I sighed. “Why won’t you have an heir?”

  “I have no interest in men, and you can’t exactly get pregnant without one.” Naomi smirked and tucked a magenta lock of hair behind her ear. “Men are just idiots, clumsy, and uncouth. I prefer the delicate touch of a woman. We’re soft, kind, and gentle lovers.”

  “If you aren’t interested in men, you haven’t been with the right one, then,” I replied with a wicked grin.

  “That’s what everyone tells me,” she sighed. “But I’ve never found a man who piqued my interest before, and women have suited my needs just fine.”

  “Before?” I raised an eyebrow when I caught the word. “Before what?”

  “Ah, well, I… ” Naomi trailed off and cleared her throat as she nervously tugged at her collar and exposed the swell of her breasts. Then she quickly yanked the cloth over to cover her skin and averted her gaze.

  “Okay,” I chuckled. “Well, why can’t Lord Vallen have his own heir?”

  “He’s infertile,” the lizard replied with a shrug. “Ever since he revealed that he’d been unable to impregnate any of his mates, I’ve been coming up here for months trying to find a spell to cure him. I was hoping to find something, so he’d leave me alone about this heir thing, but I’ve had no luck so far.”

  “I don’t know much about spells,” I admitted. “That’s more of Alyona’s specialty than mine, but I could use some meditation time if you don’t mind sharing the room with me.”

  Naomi gestured to the space around us before she sat down and closed her eyes. Then I walked a few yard
s away from her and sat as well.

  The moment I closed my eyes, I found myself on the beach of my spiritual sea. The dark water crashed onto the sand, and the moon reflected off the surface of the surging water.

  “I started to wonder if you’d ever come back,” Miraya murmured from behind me.

  I turned to see the spirit of the Sword of Healing in her nearly transparent white dress that clung to her curvy body. Her stark white hair fell in waves that grazed the sand at her feet, and her pale skin seemed to glow in the moonlight. She stood with her hip cocked to one side, and her arms were crossed across her ample bosom.

  “Of course.” I smiled as I rose to my feet. “Why wouldn’t I?”

  “After your daydream… ” the spirit trailed off and looked away. Then her eyes focused on the sand beneath us as she sighed in frustration. “I figured you were embarrassed for thinking of such things about me.”

  “Embarrassed?” I asked in shock. “Why in the world would I be embarrassed for imagining myself fucking a beautiful woman like you?”

  “You’re just saying that,” Miraya insisted without looking up at me.

  “And why would I lie?” I said softly. “Can’t you see inside my mind?”

  The spirit raised her head to stare at me in silence as she searched my eyes for any signs of deceit.

  “You know I’m not lying,” I declared. “But I’ll prove it to you anyway.”

  I strode toward Miraya, took her face in my hands, and pressed a gentle kiss to her lips. Then I felt her body weaken at the touch, and I pulled back.

  “No, I’m fine,” she murmured. “Please, don’t stop.”

  I grinned and kissed her harder, and she wrapped her hands around my waist to pull me in closer. I could feel every inch of her thick body pressed against mine, and my blood rushed south. Then I groaned against her mouth and ran my hands down her back. Her skin was cool to the touch, even through her dress, and I dragged my lips down her chin to her bare throat.

  “Lord Evan,” Miraya moaned as I reached up to the straps of her dress and pulled them down her shoulders.

  “Let me take you,” I murmured.

  I never thought I’d be able to have sex in my spiritual sea, but there was a first time for everything.

  She nodded and relaxed against me. Her dress slid down her body to reveal her pale skin covered in goosebumps, and her pink nipples poked out like little berries that I needed to taste.

  Her dress pooled at her feet, and I grabbed her naked hips to lift her out of it and laid her on the sand. I straddled her hips and kissed her again before I nibbled my way down to her bare tits. I took one nipple in my mouth as I rubbed my thumb across the other. Then I flicked and teased her breast with my tongue, and the spirit moaned with pleasure until I thought she might climax before I’d even touched her pussy.

  “Have you ever done this before?” I murmured as I lifted my head from her chest.

  “No,” she whispered, and her body writhed underneath me as she arched her back and pushed her tits up against my face. “I have never felt this… connection and attraction to any of my previous masters. Only you, Lord Evan.”

  “Fuuuuck,” I groaned and suckled her breast as she cried out.

  I moved over to her other side and flicked her pert nipple with my tongue as I let my other hand drift down her flat stomach to the apex of her thighs.

  Miraya gasped as I grazed over her mound with my fingers. Her pussy was hot and throbbing as I slid one finger over her lips, and they were already slick with her desire.

  I met her eyes and carefully pushed a finger inside her tunnel.

  The spirit inhaled sharply and then sighed as I slowly pumped my finger in and out of her soaking canal while I continued to suck on her tit.

  “Oh, Lord Evan!” she cried out. “What’s happening? I feel like I’m floating.”

  “You’re about to come all over my hand,” I explained with a grin, and then I pressed my thumb to her swollen clit. “Just relax and let it happen. Give yourself to me.”

  “Gods!” she screamed as she hit her climax, and I rubbed my thumb in circles against her clit as she came in waves until my hand was nearly dripping with her pleasure.

  “I can… see why… your women appreciate you,” she said through gasping breaths. “That was… amazing.”

  “Oh, baby, that was just the beginning,” I replied with a devilish grin. “I haven’t even taken off my clothes yet.”

  Miraya sat up and looked at me as though she didn’t realize I was still wearing anything.

  “Wait, we didn’t have sex yet?” she asked.

  “No,” I chuckled. “But we are definitely about to.”

  She smiled shyly as I yanked my tunic over my head and stood up to pull my pants down. My arousal sprang free of my trousers, and her eyes widened as I watched her mentally compare my cock to my finger.

  “Don’t worry,” I assured her. “I’ll go slow.”

  Miraya nodded, and I kneeled down over her again as I spread her legs open wide and gazed down at her sopping wet pussy. My dick throbbed, and I couldn’t hold back any longer.

  I slowly inched my cock into her slick tunnel, and she gasped as I spread open her virgin tunnel with my cock. Before she could feel any pain, I pulled back and then slid into her again. Her pussy was wrapped around my erection like a vise, and I groaned as I thrust in and out of her with as much patience as I could muster.

  Suddenly, she wrapped her legs around my back and dug her heels into me as she forced me further inside her.

  “You said you’d take me,” she whispered. “Do it.”

  I growled as I shoved my cock as far into her as I could, and I pumped my hips back and forth as her tunnel tightened with every movement.

  “Yes!” Miraya cried out as her walls squeezed my arousal with her climax.

  “Fuck,” I groaned as I felt my own orgasm coming to the surface.

  Then it stopped.

  I pumped in and out of her tight canal, but I couldn’t fill her with my seed.

  “What the hell?” I groaned.

  “What’s wrong?” she asked breathlessly.

  “I can’t finish,” I explained. “I’ve never--”

  “It’s because this isn’t your corporeal body,” she interjected. “You don’t really exist here.”

  “Then let’s go to my body, so I can fill yours,” I muttered as I wrapped my arms around her.

  Then it felt like we were yanked from the sandy beach of my spiritual sea to the gold-encrusted floor of Naomi’s cultivation room.

  The lizard Demi-Human was still deep in her trance, and I grinned at the idea of her waking up to me fucking Miraya right in front of her.

  The image was enough to rev up my momentum, and I continued to plunge my cock inside the spirit as she moaned with pleasure. I could feel every inch of her tunnel in the real world, and my erection throbbed as I pushed deeper inside the spirit’s hot core.

  Then I sensed my orgasm bubble up to the surface again, and I exploded into her pussy. Load after load of my seed poured into her soaking wet tunnel, and my orgasm crashed through my body in waves until I was sweating.

  Something else felt different, though, but I couldn’t quite put my finger on it.

  “Holy shit,” I muttered when my climax finally subsided. “That was intense.”

  “It was magnificent,” Miraya sighed as she shuddered beneath me.

  “We can always go again.” I grinned and pumped my hips against her, and my still rock-hard cock squelched through the gallon of seed I’d just deposited into the spirit’s womb.

  “Actually, I should go back… ” Miraya mumbled as I pulled back and watched my dragon seed drip down her inner thighs.

  “Why?” I raised an eyebrow. “You could stay out here for a while, you know. Nike’s sword Aine used to walk around in the real world when they first came to Hatra.”

  “There’s something odd about my presence here,” Miraya said as she picked up her dress an
d slipped it over her head. “It’s like there’s a different connection with you.”

  “I don’t think it’s because you’re here instead of there,” I pointed out and yanked my trousers up from my ankles. “I think it’s because I just took your virginity.”

  “You did what?” Naomi’s voice called out from behind me.

  I turned to see the lizard’s amber eyes wide with surprise at my half-dressed body and the gorgeous woman next to me.

  “Nothing,” I muttered and picked up my tunic to slip it back on.

  Naomi’s gaze traveled past me to Miraya, and she stared at the spirit’s still-red nipples as they pressed against her dress. The spirit of the sword breathed heavily, and her skin was still flushed from our little tryst.

  “It doesn’t look like nothing,” the mage said, and then she sniffed the air. “It also doesn’t smell like nothing.”

  These damn Demi-Humans and their sense of smell.

  “Well, how about it’s nothing that you’re interested in, as you already told me,” I shot back.

  “Ahhh, yes, I have no interest in hearing about the lovemaking between a man and a woman,” Naomi said with an eyeroll. “I definitely wouldn’t imagine myself in that woman’s place. Who is she, by the way?”

  “You wouldn’t?” I raised an eyebrow, but I decided to let it go. “This is Miraya, the spirit of the Sword of Healing.”

  Miraya stepped closer and curtsied.

  “Pleased to meet you.” Naomi smirked. “Now, how did you get into my cultivation room?”

  “I’m so sorry,” Miraya apologized. “I came back to this world with Lord Evan after he entered his spiritual sea.”

  “Yeah, we had to finish what we started in my head,” I added with a wink.

  “I see,” Naomi muttered as she looked away from us with an odd expression. “Well, I certainly don’t want any of the details, so I suppose we should make our way back downstairs. I smell dinner.”

  With that, the lizard rose to her feet and strode out the door.

  “Are you sure you don’t want me to go back to your sea?” Miraya asked as we watched the Demi-Human stalk out of the room.
