Black Pearls - Aurum

Giggling with the freedom of a child, Aurum ran after her.

She had caught up, of course. With time, though, Argentia got faster and faster. Never better at Alchemy, though. She didn't have her mother's gifts. Instead, swordplay and racing, always becoming stronger and faster, were taken up.

Then, the world caught up to Aurum and Argentia, and now Aurum was It. The only change was that the It was the chased.

Aurum blinked in Lily's cabin. The lights had remained on, but Lily had disappeared. The door was unlocked.

Curious, Aurum tip-toed to the pool room. Glowing blue rocky life illuminated the space wonderfully, a garden dedicated to the sea. It was empty.

Carefully, Aurum sneaked up the stairs. Each board felt like it should creak from her weight, but it never did. Good for her, she supposed.

The room above was dark, but not completely so. Faint life from the starry night outside cascaded in, as well as the dull blue-green glow of some small sea-life, gave enough light to move around by.

With that light, Aurum could see the two figures that lay sleeping on the bed. It was well and truly colossal, as the two sleepers weren't touching each other. One was obviously Shella. Light shone on two round globes that only Shella had. The other was Argentia.

Aurum could barely see how Argentia only had one sheet, and how she lay nude underneath it. She lay, with some pillows to support her, sprawled out, her hard warrior's body lit by stray light, a painter's delight. She was beautiful.

Aurum softly padded to the door before she could accidentally wake up Argentia. One hand crept to the doorknob and twisted it. Still silent. Quietly, Aurum opened the door, then went out to the deck and closed it behind her with a click. The slight noise made her freeze, but nothing else moved.

The night sky was enchanting. Each star was a pinpoint of shining blue or yellow or red, tiny and distant. Together, they formed a glowing tapestry, something divine that held more promise that humanity could realize. And, high in the sky before them, lay the silver-sheened moon, feeling as distant as the stars behind it.

The sound of wood against wood made Aurum's ear twitch and she stiffened. Next to her, Lily crossed her arms and leaned on the railing, staring out to sea. Just her, then. Aurum relaxed.

Aurum couldn't beat her curiosity, and looked at Lily. She looked distant, her eyes not looking at anything, or perhaps something she could only imagine. Perhaps she was missing something? Or that she wanted something she couldn't have? "Hey, Lily? Do you like Shella?" Aurum asked.

Upon hearing that, Lily broke out into silent laughter and covered her mouth out of modesty.

"Um, whoops. Sorry, my mind was elsewhere a bit. Do you love Shella?" Aurum corrected herself.

Lily's laughter died down and she nodded her head. She sniffled without effect and leaned on the railing.

Aurum joined her in leaning on the railing. "Is there anything stopping you?"

Lily at first shook her head, then slowed, then turned to nodding.

"What is it?" Aurum asked.

Lily's fingers dawdled on the railing, as if she was deciding what to do. Her fingers suddenly stopped, and her head perked up. Her arm clutched Aurum's arm and began dragging her to the front of the ship.

"Hey, Lily! What the heck! What are you doi-?" Aurum began to protest, but the sound of the cabin door opening shut off her words.

Framed in the doorway, with a faint alien light glowing behind her, stood Argentia, perfectly nude. Her straightened arm kept the door open as she gazed across the deck at Aurum, and her other hand gripped a short sword.

Aurum ripped herself out of Lily's grip and ran for the other side of the deck. Her bare feet pounded against the deck with hollow booms, her cloak billowing behind her. She was aiming for the door at the front. Just before she hit the door, it cracked open like a maw, and Aurum was thrown into it.

Behind her, Aurum heard the sound of metal crashing onto the deck and Argentia shouting, "Sto-!". With a snick, the ship closed around her, and Aurum was plunged into darkness.

Her knees were weak and her heart was hammering in panic. Heaving, Aurum crashed blindly against a wall and slid against it. Above her, she heard feet pounding across the deck and the door slam open. Footsteps made their way right above her, making wood creak. Aurum heard Argentia bellow out, "Where is she?", and then silence. Footsteps paced above, tracing a furious pattern, before retreating back to the cabin.

It sounded like Lily had saved her once again, though Aurum didn't know when Lily had collapsed her to below decks.

A hand took hers in the darkness and guided her back. The hidden door swung open, illuminating both Aurum and Lily, and Lily took Aurum to the hammock. Aurum collapsed into the hammock, almost on the verge of crying. It could've been so simple! Everything could've remained simple, and Argentia wouldn't be waving a sword at her!

Lily touched Aurum's shoulder. When Aurum looked up, Lily mouthed -want to talk about it?-

A swarm of memories flooded Aurum's mind. Alchemists in their robes, the green-covered hill guarded by a wrought-iron gate, the carved headstones organized in rows. A sense of failure, a sense of fear, a sense of panic. "Not yet, please," Aurum admitted.

Lily nodded and retreated, leaving Aurum alone. Time changed Aurum's lingering fear into weariness, and weariness into sleep.

* * *

Aurum groaned in her dream. Above her, the hard body of Argentia lay on top of her. Their legs were mingled, their bodies sweating. Hips ground together, and pleasure flooded her body from her loins as a muscled thigh worked against them. Argentia whispered sweet, unintelligible nonsense into her ears, making her body thrill and tingle.

With a cry, Aurum felt a strong bolt of ecstasy go through her. Her body was shocked with pleasure, her woman-flower blossoming with delight underneath Argentia. She could feel the pleasure mount, track it within her body.

Then, with a sudden lurch, the world turned. Argentia was holding her down with a hand to her throat, and one hand was raised high, bearing a dagger. The arm swung down and with a jolt of fear, Aurum woke up just in time to crash into the floor.

Lily was sitting on the bed with her hands in her lap and her eyes closed. As soon as Aurum felt the jolt of wood against her shoulder, her eyes flew open. In the next moment, she had stood up, and bent to help Aurum up.

Aurum's womanhood was aching and wet with need, her nipples tight and hard. Yet there was no way that she could be fulfilled, not in the way that she wanted to be!

She collapsed against Lily. "How do you deal with it?" she quietly asked. "I mean, not being able to be with your love?

A cold huff of breath hit Aurum's shoulder, and a gentle hand cupped her chin to turn her to Lily. -nothing is ever definite- Lily mouthed.

Aurum twisted about and lay against Lily with her head on Lily's shoulder. "Argentia wants to kill me, you know that. I'm a homunculus without a master. I was illegally taken from my creators. I bleed chemicals vital to turning lead into gold. Did you know that Alchemists want less gold to exist in the world? It's something about gold's worth."

Lily crossed her arms over Aurum's belly. They waited there for a few seconds, then one slid to the floor and picked up a piece of parchment. Lily held it up to show Aurum. In neat lettering, it read, "It is not as bad as you think it is."

"Pfft. How so?" Aurum asked with a note of cynicism.

The piece of paper spun around Lily's fingers, and when it faced Aurum again, it read, "You can do something about it."

"What would you do about it?" Aurum asked.

Lily's fingers let the piece of paper slide to the ground, then they waited for a moment. One solitary finger slid up the brackets of gold on Aurum's breast, then flicked across her still-hard nipple. Pleasure seeped in from the trail, bursting at her tit.

However, Lily did not continue. Her finger hovered curiously over Aurum's breast. After an aching pause, it returned to the base and rubbed up again, lighting up Aurum's skin every time it passed over a piercing. This time, Aurum let out an appreciative mewl.

Still, Lily did not continue. It was like she was waiting for some kind of go-ahead. It was an unusual point of control that she had given Aurum. Don't people just normally take it?

The unfilled want pushed on Aurum, begging her to do something. She took Lily's hand by the wrist and made it stroke up her body, dancing along her breast and its piercings.

Lily's hands hesitantly creeped past Aurum's breasts. They fell into the folds of her hood and pushed it back. Aurum's long ears flicked out and twitched twice, adjusting to freedom. Her hair spilled out, falling randomly across her shoulders and back.

Hands stroked Aurum's hair, petting it so that it all fell to her back. After that, they slide down her body, knuckles rubbing skin, until they met her hips. They turned around, fingers pressing against her golden brown skin, and slid up. The gentle nature of Lily's actions was weird to Aurum. Shouldn't it all be rougher? She felt like it should be more primal, not this flowery affair between them!

Fingers cupped her breasts, pressing her piercings into her skin with electric delight. Aurum's breasts were palmed and weighed individually, lifted up and dropped back down. She could feel how her soft globes pushed down on Lily's fingers as they were held up. A pleased purr escaped through Aurum's lips. It was unexpectedly calm, but perhaps they could be like this, just for a while.

Aurum felt lips clamp around her ear and she gasped in shock. Its grip prevented her ear from twitch in surprise, though her free ear was batting in the air madly. She could feel the teeth graze it, sending a lusting thrill into her. Her womanhood wanted anew with fresh wetness. She couldn't help but mewl in lust.

Lily continued to play with Aurum's breasts. Her inquiring fingers slid along sensitive bare skin, leaving fires behind them. Her lips slide down Aurum's elfin ear to embrace her neck, then down to her shoulder.

The need in Aurum was a searing, controlling force now. She needed to be taken! Her hand flew to the cloak's clasp and with a flick of her fingers, it opened. She leaned away from Lily, and the cloak slid off of her back. She bent forward, crawling on her knees, and with one hand, pulled at a buttcheek to reveal her wet womanhood. Aurum's tail circled about her buttocks, highlighting them and showing them off. The way to satisfy herself was to offer herself.

Aurum did not feel her lips being parted. She did not feel hips slamming into hers. There was no stab of pleasure forced into her. She looked back, expecting Lily to use her in whatever way Lily saw fit, but the ghostly woman was standing up!

Lily offered Aurum a hand. Dumbfounded, Aurum took it. She was pulled up, and rose to see Lily smiling sweetly, though she looked slightly embarrassed. Lily guided her to turn around with a hand. Now Aurum was facing the bed. An electric shock of joy tingled her spine as she felt Lily's fingers slide down the piercings there.

Her fingers left Aurum's body, and Lily walked to the bed. She shrugged, and the wide neck of her torn dress fell off her shoulders. Her back was so odd! It looked like a wooden spinal column was faintly trying to push out of her skin! It didn't make her look skeletal, it was more of an addition on Lily's part.

The rest of Lily's dress hit the ground without a sound, revealing her small ass. Lily sauntered to the bed, her soft boots still on, and got on top of it. She rolled to reveal her front to Aurum, displaying rib-like patterns of wood underneath her breasts as well as her open snatch, coming with a neat thatch of pale hair. She patted the section of bed beside her; it was wide enough for two people, barely.

This hadn't happened before! Normally, she'd bend over and be taken! There was no personal intimacy, nor many other women for that matter. Quivering with nervousness, Aurum climbed on to the bed and lay her back against Lily's stomach.

Almost immediately, a smooth hand ran along her side, stroking up and down. Another hand slinked down her back and groped a buttcheek, making Aurum squeak. Then, it slide tantalizingly between her legs, grazing her thighs.

Aurum wanted it, Aurum needed it! Her legs pressed together, trying to push Lily's hand against her aching slit, but it had no effect. She whimpered in lust, trying to get Lily to take her.

Lily's hand left Aurum's thighs, and with her other hand, rolled Aurum against her enough to slip her arm through. Together, they slid along Aurum's belly, thumbs rolling over golden pins between her navel and loins. Warmth blossomed in their wake, trying to slake Aurum's lust without effect.

Breaths of cool air tickled Aurum's ears as her body buzzed with nervous need. Lily's fingers were sliding closer and closer. Aurum could feel their trail clearly, like a ripple trail in water. And when Lily's gentle fingers touched her wet woman's flesh, pleasure began to bloom.

It was a gentle, firm trickle of ecstasy, a mind-controlling sensation of numbing happiness. Aurum could feel how her open folds slid in between Lily's taunting fingers. They stretched back down her taint, then back up again, leaving her hard bean tantalizingly untouched.

This was so unusual! Even when she had spied on Argentia and Shella, it was Argentia who was making Shella do that to her! This gentle tickling of pleasure was so caring! But still Aurum was trying to close her thighs around Lily's hand to trap it against her.

Lily, in retaliation, grabbed Aurum's offending thigh and pulled it up. Cool air danced along Aurum's slit, still tingling as fingers petted it up and down. Lily's leg, still clothed in those fine boots of hers, bent and twisted, planting its foot on the other side of Aurum's downward thigh and barring her aerial leg from descending.

Thus controlled, Aurum couldn't close herself any longer, and an odd thrill crept through her. She was at Lily's mercy now, though indeed Lily did seem to have quite a lot of mercy.

Aurum felt Lily's other hand slide up her body, gracing her skin, before sliding back down. Fingers played along her belly, her navel, her piercing, until finally they touched her womanhood, pairing up with Lily's other hand.

She could almost feel Lily's smile against her ear as she felt fingers dip slightly into her and spread her snatch. Ecstasy accompanied her flesh stretched just a portion, before letting it return to its original openness and rub along its flesh.

Caring fingers poked at her engorged clit, jostling the golden bar touching it and sending in a wave of pleasure. The graze of Lily's fingers was just enough to make Aurum groan in lust. Others were happy when she groaned like this.

Fingers expertly pierced Aurum's aching slit. Two articulate bars, warm as flesh, slid past her petal lips into her inner recesses and began to feel her walls. They played in her, swirling and twitching about. She could feel them by the way it felt like her body lit up. Her tail seemed connected to how her inner body was poked and pleased, and she could feel it slid and twitch against Lily's loins.

The pleasure cascading into Aurum was heavenly. She loved how her stiff bead felt underneath Lily's circling fingers. She loved how her fingers went in and out, stroked up and down inside her. It was utter heaven. The only person that could've made it better flashed across her mind, and Aurum briefly panged for Argentia to be there with her.

Aurum felt Lily push against her with her body, and she obligingly rolled over. Right now, she'd do anything Lily would ask of her. Lily's body stayed with her, pressing against her back. She could feel Lily's hard nipples press into her shoulder blades, and could feel how Lily's belly pushed against her spinal piercings. Lily's other leg joined her first in splaying Aurum open, and her chest pressed Aurum downward on to the bed, forcing her into a kneeling position, bent over as if she could be humiliated. Aurum's arms were on either side of her, her head turned to breathe. Lewd thrill crept into her; this was the kind of domination she wanted.

The fingers resumed their ministrations, and with them rubbing against her sensitive sex, Aurum was soon moaning again. Hips pressed against her buttocks, belly across her back. Pleasure flowed into her like a river. Her ears twitched with every divine passing of Lily's fingers, and her tail twitched and spasmed with joy.

Lily's fingers pushed against Aurum's inner depths, playing and pushing against her insides. Aurum could feel as her walls tightened up automatically, closing in on the fingers to be nice and tight. Her tail stood straight up, its forked tip tingling with excitement. She could feel it rub against a slick fold, and there seemed to be a light groan from the planks of the ship.

Aurum stood still for a tense moment. Was something the matter? She felt Lily's fingers leave her clit and go to her head. They brushed back her hair comfortingly, and Lily nuzzled her ear.

Aurum twitched her tail experimentally. Fleshy folds on either side of it were soaked through, and Lily stiffened as the tail moved. It felt like Aurum's tail was rubbing along sides Lily's womanhood! A useful thing to know. Formerly, it had just been used as a handle.

Lily returned her hand to Aurum's clit, and the undeniable pleasure resumed. Ecstasy flooded into Aurum. Her tail danced bewitched by the pleasure, sinking against Lily's sensitive folds. She could feel Lily press against her, pushing groin against buttocks, mock-thrusting to try and relieve herself of the pleasure.

Groping hands never left Aurum's flower, stroking it endlessly. She was weak and defenseless under her dominator, the thrill of it resonating in lust in her belly. She was driven before Lily, pleasure reaching higher and higher. Her mind was kept captive by it, soon to be overtaken by it. Her voice constantly uttered groans of passion, her body no longer hers.

Aurum felt it building insider her; that sweet orgasmic relief that was all too rare. It rose up, climbing the steps of passion. It mounted her, an uncontrollable master.

With a few more pumps of Lily's fingers, Aurum broke out in a cry of lust. Her mind lost any fear as it was consumed by utter pleasure. Her sex sucked on Lily's invading fingers, trying to spill the seed of man from them. Her body rocked and twitched as lighting joy swept through her.

Eventually, her moan subsided and her body quieted. Bliss was in Aurum's thoughts now, a lovely field where worries never existed at all.

Lily's weight got off her, and Aurum rushed to get off the bed. The experience was incomplete. She knew that Lily hadn't had an experience like she had, and Lily was the dominating one. Lily deserved it!

Aurum quickly got in front of Lily, preventing her from sliding back into her dress, and kneeled down. Right in front of her, with the neat thatch of pale hair, was Lily's womanhood. It was open and wet, justifiably so, and needed to be satisfied.

Quickly getting to work, Aurum put her head against Lily's hips kissed Lily's flower. Her lips encompassed mouthless lips, her tongue pressing against the petals of Lily's precious womanhood. A hard bean resisted her lips, sticking out and getting in the way. Again, Aurum heard gentle creaking. Perhaps that was how Lily moaned and let her desire be known.

A firm hand rested on top of Aurum's head, and she continued her work. Lips played against folds and pushed them aside, while her pierced tongue slide alongside pinkish flesh. Now she was satisfying the dominator, like it should be!
