Melia - Chapter 4 By Darkage (c) July, 2001 Chapter 4
Driven by bliss and exhaustion into a half-conscious state, Melia's head swam dreamily as she was carried, slung over the orc's massive shoulder, down a long, dark corridor. Torchlight grew around them and flickered before her eyes, and she sensed that the hallway had opened into a large cavern.
Aroash cast the greeting had signal to the guards, identifying himself as one of the tribe, as he strode into the chamber. They nodded in recognition and let him pass, eyeing the unconscious woman and mumbling amongst themselves as he passed through the chamber. He passed into another hall at the end of the chamber and walked down its shadowy length.
The echoing footsteps of her captor filled Melia's ears as she felt herself being carried through the dark. Through sleepy eyes, she saw the dark stone walls around them open into an cavern filled with the warmth and light of fire. Thousands of torches burned upon the walls, and a number of bonfires blazed throughout the cavern. Noise began to surround them; strange, excited speech filled the air around them. There was something touching her, thousands of hands, hands upon her skin.
Aroash barked furiously at the orcs swarming around him and his capture. He glared and snarled at the lecherous beasts, his fellow people, as he passed through the crowd. A trail of aggression and jealousy followed him like a cursed tail as he strode deeper into the cavern. He knew it was a dangerous thing to bring such a catch back, especially one not concealed in a sack of some sort, but today he didn't care. He was angry for having been demoted to a tunnel scout, and cocky after his pleasure with the human girl. He swaggered through the sea of jealousy, unleashing an occasional fist where necessary, all the way to his abode. It was a humble, two-room clay hut. Though Aroash lusted after the impressive stone houses that housed his superiors, his was a far better dwelling than the tents and hovels most of the tribe lived in. Inside his hut, he dumped the unconscious maiden onto his straw mat and went to fetch the shackles. Finding them among a pile of old, discarded gear, he locked one end to the iron ring set into the floor (a not uncommon feature in an orcan dwelling, useful when one comes into the possession of a captive, a dangerous beast, etc.). Gingerly lifting the maiden from the mattress, he placed her on the fur rug at the foot of the bed and fastened the remaining end of the shackles on her right arm, locking it around her wrist. He looked down, hungrily, at the beautiful maiden sleeping upon his floor, and turned to attend to the rest of his day's duties. In a strange and dark place, Melia awoke to the feeling of her blouse being torn off her body. Looking up in terror, she saw, against the firelight outside, the dark silhouette of some beast kneeling over her, tearing the clothes from her body. Squealing in terror, she locked her legs and tried to pull them up in a fetal position to protect her body. The beast grabbed her ankles and spread her legs wide despite her resistance.
"NO!" Melia begged as the beast brought its large, erect member down to the lips between her thighs. Ignoring her pleas, he slid his penis into the warmth between her legs. She screamed as he jammed his entire length up into her. With her unshackled hand, she strained to push the beast away, pressing her hand against its thickly muscled stomach to no avail. Her whines and squeals filled the hut as he thrust himself into her with terrible brutality. She eventually passed out, and the beast continued to fuck the unconscious maiden.
Melia awoke with terrible pain all throughout her body, but especially between her legs. The night's rape had left her filled with burning pain. To her surprise, the large orc who'd brought her hear after practically raping her (though far more gently), seemed distressed at her condition, and appeared to be tending to her. He was applying some cool ointment to her body, smoothing it gently over her skin. She was touched by such unexpected care, and a tear trickled down her eye as she attempted a smile up at the orc.
Aroash was, at first, infuriated when he discovered his maiden had been raped by another. Her terrible condition had evoked a sympathy that was rare among his people, especially toward a human. Nonetheless, he pitied the poor creature that'd given him such pleasure the day before, and set about to healing her. Having applied the first ointment the medicine had given him, he began mixing up the internal medicine, mixing its contents in a small clay bowl. He then gently parted the girl's legs and dipped his finger into the medicinal bowl.
A little cry of pain escaped Melia's trembling lips at the touch of the orc's fingertip upon her labia. The ointment upon it was cool, however, and she let him smooth it over her. He dipped his finger again and brought it to the lips between her thighs. As the orc spread the cool ointment over her clitoris and the soft flesh between her labia, Melia smiled weakly up at him and moaned in tender pain. The orc dipped his finger deeply into the little bowl of ointment, coating it thickly, and looked questioningly into Melia's eyes. Though the was still trembling, she nodded at Aroash; she was ready. She sighed quietly as the fingers of one hand gently parted her soft flower. He touched the tip of his ointment-coated finger between her inner lips, and Melia moaned softly as he gently slid his finger up into her soft vagina. Cool as the ointment was, she was terribly sore and tender inside, and tears began rolling down her cheeks. The orc slid his finger around just enough to apply the medicine, and then withdrew from within her body. The girl's sobbing subsided, and he looked sadly down at her. She looked up at him with wet brown eyes and placed the fingers of her free hand lightly on his thick forearm. "Thank you," she whispered.
"I...I'm sorry. I'm sorry thees happened."
Melia was still unsure how much of her language the orc understood. She looked anxiously at the shackles that bound her captive, then up at him with pleading eyes. His head fell into his hands and he shook it in confused anger and sadness. "I'm sorry," he said again as he got up and turned to leave.
Before leaving the hut to attend to his duties, Aroash covered the maiden with the softest blanket he had. Despite the roughness of the material, Melia appreciated the gesture. Aroash left the hut, but kept a careful eye on the goings on around the neighborhood, determined not to let this happen again.
As he attended his daily duties, Aroash found himself filled with distressing, confusing feelings and ideas. He felt strangely protective towards the human girl. Not in the usual greedy, suspicious way, but in a caring, tender way. These emotions were very foreign to him, and plagued his thoughts endlessly. In an attempt to return to familiar mental territory he vowed to find the orc who'd raped her and kill him.
Melia was very scared that day, as she lay, vulnerable in the small hut. No one, however, assaulted her or even entered the home of her captor. Melia again awoke to the large orc's tender hands smoothing the cool ointment over her body. This continued, everyday, for near a week. On the sixth day after the assault, Melia awoke feeling mostly pain free. She didn't, however, protest to her captor's tender care. She lay naked upon the soft fur rug as he caressed the soft lotion over the entirety of her body. He stopped to mix the internal ointment, and Melia found herself eagerly awaiting the soft touch of his finger inside of her. The orc was surprised to hear Melia whine as he spread ointment over her labia. Her soft cries of pain had mostly ceased recently. Nonetheless, she sighed tenderly as his fingertip applied the medicine to the soft flower between her thighs. His confusion ended, however, as he readied to apply the ointment inside her. He touched his finger to her, and it slid into her with surprising ease. It was lubricated, he realized, with her own lustful fluids. Smiling up at her, he saw that her head was thrown back and her lips quivered in a silent moan of pleasure. He continued to lovingly apply the ointment to her soft love canal, evoking deep, panting breaths from her, then removed his finger.
Melia felt the orc withdraw his slippery finger. She sat up and looked into his eyes. He stared up into hers as he lowered his head down between her legs. Leaning back on her shackled hand and placing her free hand atop the orc's bald head, she sighed as he kissed her softly. She gasped and sighed as he teased her softly with tongue and teeth. Becoming weak with lust, Melia lay back on the soft carpet and spread her legs wide before the orc's mouth. Her groin grew hot beneath his sensuous kisses and she gasped with bliss as his long tongue slipped into her. Melia's pleasure mounted as the orc's astonishingly long tongue snaked its way deep into her.
As the maiden's sighs grew more frantic, Aroash withdrew his tongue from within her, wishing to penetrate her orifice with something more substantial. Feeling the orc withdrawing from between her legs, Melia looked up to see him searching a pile of items lying against the wall. He picked a large dagger and a small jar of white substance from the pile. Laying the dagger on the floor, he knelt between her legs and smiled at her as he unscrewed the jar. He dipped a finger into the jar and it came out coated with some oozing milky fluid. He pressed the slippery fingertip between her legs, tracing a line of fiery bliss down across her labia, along the rounded region beneath them, and over her anus. Melia sighed with aching desire as his fingertip slid over her anus, coating it in the jar's slippery contents. Aroash felt the girl's body tremble with ecstasy as he gently pushed his lubricous finger into her anus. He pushed it in 'til it would go no further, the pink entrance to her hugging his knuckle tightly. The maiden whined and squirmed, her body deep in ecstasy, as he caressed the inside of her taught canal, coating it with slippery fluid. He began removing his finger and she sighed softly as it slipped from inside her.
Melia's panting, already heavy with lust, grew quick with fear when she looked down her body to see the orc kneeling between her legs and lifting the large dagger from the floor. As he held the tip of the ten-inch blade just centimeters from the delicate flower between her legs, now dripping with her own fluids, she whimpered in fear. Slowly, the blade neared her vaginal lips. Finally, the orc touched its tip ever so lightly to her pink flesh and Melia gasped in expectant terror. He did not, however, impale the on the blade. Rather, he flipped the dagger around and held it by the blade (which was actually quite dull). To her surprise, Melia felt the large pommel at the base of the weapon's handle press against her anus. Her panting again grew passionate as the orc pressed with increasing pressure, causing the entrance to her anus to spread, stretching to accommodate the smooth sphere of metal. Finally, the pommel slipped into her and she froze, trembling, a blissful sigh upon her lips, a handle between her hips. He pushed five or six inches of the smooth leather handle up into her, 'til the dagger's iron hilt pressed between her buttocks. The girl's body shuddered and come began dribbling from her vacant vagina.
Aroash took the empty leather sheath from his belt and sheathed the dagger, leaving its handle deep inside the maiden's trembling body. He stood and, looking down upon the human frozen in a state of ecstasy, he undressed himself.
Melia, panting in astonished pleasure at the anal penetration, opened her eyes to see the large orc, with his erection of equine proportion, bearing down on her. He spread her legs wide and gingerly pushed himself into her. She moaned with heavenly delight as he pushed himself deep into her, the lips between her thighs hugging his shaft as it slid into her body. Her moans grew to wails as he pounded into her, driving her to the edge of the cliff of ecstasy. The dagger's handle and the orc's penis pressed deep inside her body and Melia clenched her thighs tightly around his waist, her body shuddering in bliss, and sobbed with delight as she came, her milky fluids pulsing and dribbling around the shaft of her captor's member. During the following days, Melia made an effort to converse with her captor when he was around. Their conversations were awkward, to say the least. She knew none of his rough language, and he had only a minimal grasp of hers. When he was off duty, they would spend time trying to communicate with each other, expressing ideas with the most rudimentary words and gestures. She managed to convince him to get her a pair of thin metal hair clips to clip up her long, black hair. Secretly, she worked at picking the lock in her wrist shackle with the clips. After a few days of struggling with the clips, she managed to pick the lock, releasing her wrist from the iron shackle. After a few minutes of freedom, she replaced the clips in her hair and the shackle on her wrist, half clipping the lock so she could easily remove the shackle though it would appear to be locked.
That evening, Aroash returned from his duties and began sorting through his pile of belongings. He pulled out the bronze and leather of a ceremonial garb. Melia tried to ask him what was going on, but he wouldn't respond. After donning the ceremonial gear he left the hut and she watched him walk off toward the center of the cavern, where a large group of orcs was gathering. The crowd grew, and the orcs milled about the central bonfire until finally, a large male orc covered from head to toe in glittering bronze armor stood before the fire and began speaking loudly to the group. Peering through the hut's small window, Melia watched, hypnotized by the orc's powerful silhouette making strong, sweeping gestures. When he had finished his speech, he grabbed a flaming stick from the fire and the rest of the orcs followed suit, reducing the bonfire to a small smoking pile. The orcs began walking towards the hut and Melia huddled in the darkness, terrified to think what the torch-bearing mob coming towards her meant to do. In the flickering torchlight she saw that the usually somber faces of the orcs were now filled with a terrible excitement and evil grins spread wide across many of their faces. Melia drew her knees up against her chest and whimpered in the darkness, too afraid to think. To her surprise, however, she heard the mob walk past and around the hut and continue on. Peering out the window, she saw that the entire village lay dark and empty. She could see the glow of the mob's torches reflecting upon the cavern ceiling and receding from the village. Removing the loose shackle, she cautiously peeked outside and slipped out the doorway. Sneaking behind the hut, she saw the mob walking off into the distance. Keeping in the darkness that followed their flickering torches, she crept along ten yards behind them to see what was taking place.
They walked farther and farther from the village until the torchlight began flickering off the facets of a huge stone formation that loomed before them. The mob stopped fifty feet from the stone wall that stood hundreds of feet high before them. The firelight illuminated an and grotesque face carved into the wall. Its eyes were wide with terror, its nose wicked and sharp, and its mouth was stretched open in a silent scream, its bottom lip meeting the cavern floor. There was an impenetrable darkness that filled its open mouth. Melia strained her eyes and still could not see into it, as if it led to an utter void. Before the wall and to the right of the face was another formation. An X-shaped altar of carved stone lay upon the ground. With each crosspiece about twenty-five feet long, it was raised in relief about five feet above the cavern floor, which was lacerated with tiny cracks radiating from the X. Each leg of the X was about four feet wide, allowing an orc robed in black to stand upon each end. The four black-robed orcs chanted softly as they stood facing inward toward the center of the X, where a female figure lay nude with limbs outstretched. Straining her eyes Melia saw, to her horror, that the woman upon the X was Alara. She was spread upon the rock, her wrists and ankles shackled, one upon each leg of the X. She appeared rather faint, and her long hair flowed out behind her head and down over the edge of the rock.
The chanting grew louder as the entire crowd joined in. Melia found herself growing dizzy as the deep, steady chanting filled the cavern. The darkness in the stone face's mouth appeared to pulse rhythmically and a faint glow of pale light extended inward from each robed orc, meeting in a ball above Alara's body. The void in the wall throbbed with increasing intensity as the chanting grew. A shadowy form the size of a bull began to pull itself through the void, emerging from within the mouth. As it emerged its body took the form of a four-footed, wingless, gargoyle-like beast. Its skin shone like black onyx in the firelight. Its pale yellow gaze scanned along the crowd of chanting orcs until it fell upon the illuminated X. Drawn by the light, the shimmering beast crept slowly toward the altar. Melia watched in terror as it leapt up onto one of the altar's legs and crept gingerly toward Alara's body. Shaking the dizziness from her head, Melia snatched a rock from the ground, ran towards the altar, and threw with all her might at the beast. The rock missed the beast entirely and struck one of the robed orcs in the head. The orc fell from the altar and the light running along his leg of the X disappeared. The force of the broken spell cast the other three orcs from the altar and the black beast looked up suddenly, no longer caught in the magical trance. It leapt from the altar into the crowd and tore viscously into the nearest orcs, slashing through ceremonial armor and casting blood in the air. Violent chaos erupted and the beast was eventually driven back towards the wall, where it turned and leapt back through the void whence it came.
Suddenly Melia found herself in the midst of an angry mob. Though a number of the orcs were fighting amongst themselves, many were coming after her, the disrupter of the sacred rite. She tried to escape into the darkness beyond the torchlight, but the crowd was too dense and she only crashed into the limbs of her pursuers. Hands grabbed her from all around and though she struggled, it was to no avail. She would have been torn apart if not for the intervening of a large bronze-clad orc. Melia recognized him as the one who'd stood and spoke in front of the bonfire. He tied her hands tightly behind her back with stiff, hairy rope and led her back towards the village as the rest of the orcs jeered and cursed at her.
