New Discoveries Ch. 05

"Uh, actually!" Candi said, bolting to her feet and shaking off the women's hands. "I, like, just remembered I gotta get going!"

"To where?" Blue asked, bouting.

"Um... well, uh... It's, like, really f-"

"Awww," Purple sang. "She can't remember! What a silly bimbo!" She reached out, tickling Candi under the chin. Candi giggled, but brushed the hand away. As she did, another hand squeezed her ass. She pushed that one to the side, but another just latched onto her tits. Candi continued to fight them off, but each attempt was just met with more sensual touching. Eventually, Candi's efforts to shoo them off got weaker and more pathetic until she couldn't anymore and stood still within a maelstrom of gropes and fondling.

"There you go!" Green said encouragingly. "Just submit."

"We can make you feel, like, soooo good!" Purple purred.

"You like this, don't you?" Blue teased. Candi nodded vigorously, panting in need as the three bandits leered at her.

"Good girl~" Purple leaned in, kissing Candi on the cheek and leaving behind a sticky, wet, lipstick mark. A jolt of energy shot through Candi, beginning where the mark was left, and ending deep within her pussy. She moaned.

The women laughed at her as Candi felt her will to resist leaking out from between her legs.

"Mmmm... Can we play with her now?"

"Nuh-uh! You know the rules. We gotta, like, take her to the boss first!"

"Oh pleeeeease! Just a little? Look at her!"

There was a pause and Candi squeaked as she felt a pinch on her right nipple. "Um... W-well... Maybe just a little..."

Candi felt a spike of excitement as she felt hands begin to hike her skirt up. They'd been teasing her for what felt like hours! Why couldn't they just fuck her already?

"Girls, girls!" the third one said. The hands stopped and Candi whimpered in dismay as she tried to focus on what was going on. Purple and Blue seemed to be breathing heavily, their legs rubbing together, and fingers playing with the hem of Candi's skirt, itching to tear it away. Green stood between the two of them, a slight smirk on her face. "We can't fuck her until we hear what Rhiss has to say. Remember what happened last time she caught you doing it with a new take before taking them to her?" Green giggled and Purple and Blue whimpered. Candi couldn't tell if it was in fear or desire.

Green pouted. "But I know you two sluts are just soooo horny right now. Luckily, I have a super-duper good solution!" Then she put her hands on the back of the other two girls' heads and began guiding them closer to each other. Purple and Blue met each others' eyes and immediately collided with one another, kissing and slurping as their hands began to run up and down one another's bodies. Candi blinked, licking her lips and feeling her hand begin to stray up her skirt.

"Not yet, pet," Green whispered in Candi's ear, grabbing her hand and tugging on it. Candi followed obediently, not bothering to look where they were going as she continued to watch the spectacle of Purple and Blue tearing their clothes off and further ravishing each other. Moans and squeals of delight echoes down the tower's hall as Candi and Green vacated the room.

As they got further away, Candi blinked, her head clearing a bit. Oh! Right! She'd probably distracted them long enough, so she should find a way-

Candi's thoughts came to a halt as Green pecked her on the opposite cheek. That same jolt of energy shot through Candi's body and she groaned yet again.

"Obey," Green said, and that word suddenly felt so powerful. Powerful things were like... strong and stuff, right? So you shouldn't fight them. And Green had been the source of that powerful word, making her powerful. Weren't... weren't people supposed to obey powerful people?

"O-okay!" Candi stammered.

"Good pet," Green giggled, giving Candi another kiss as a reward, this time on the shoulder. Candi whimpered in appreciation and continued to go where she was being led.

After traveling up several flights of stairs, they came to an abrupt halt in front of a thick door. Green fumbled around with a key ring for a bit before unlocking the door and shoving Candi through it. She stumbled into a wide, circular room, with another spiral staircase in the center.

In the corner of the room sat a raven-haired woman, her feet kicked up on the desk. She wore a tank top that was tight around the chest, a long, black leather jacket, as well as matching dark trousers and leather boots.

Most notably, though, was her bright red skin and the horns that grew from her temples and curled back, along the sides of her head.

She looked up with a raised eyebrow as Candi came to a halt.

"Rhiss! Look what I gooooot!" Green said proudly.

"I see it," the woman, Rhiss, said in a flat, neutral tone.

Candi gaped as she stood, her supple, lithe body both graceful and strong. Oh, and the way her form made the fabric of her top stretch. Candi suddenly felt the urge to fan herself. The other bandits had been, like, super hot and practically oozed sex, but this Rhiss lady was a total babe. Especially with those intense yellow eyes of hers.

"What?" Rhiss asked, putting her hands on her hips. "Never seen a hell-blooded before?"

Candi blinked. Oh! She was talking to her! Gods! She was talking to her!

"U-uh... Um..." Candi stammered. "Well... nope!"

Rhiss didn't say anything as she began to circle Candi, inspecting her like a piece of meat. Mmmm. She definitely wouldn't mind being Rhiss's piece of meat for a bit... She shivered as dirty thoughts of getting finger fucked and talked dirty to filled Candi's head while those pretty, piercing eyes just stared into her.

"Looks like you already primed her," Rhiss said as Candi began to rub her thighs together again.

"Yep!" Green said. "The other two got a biiiiit carried away, so they're, like, blowing off some steam."

Rhiss snorted. "Of course they are." She stopped her rounds in front of Candi and crossed her arms, which Candi was a fan of since it pushed her pretty boobies up more. "I have a good eye for people, you know."

"Mhmm... Your eyes are, like, sooooo pretty!" Candi gushed. She really needed to make sure Rhiss knew how hot Candi thought she was. One, because it would be nice, and two... Candi giggled.

Rhiss furrowed her brow for a moment, then cleared her throat. "Sure... Anyway, I can tell three things just by looking at you. You're dumb. You're weak. And you're a total slut." Her eyes flashed red each time she finished an item on the list. Candi couldn't help but stare into them. They were just... so nice. And the flashing colors made her clitty tingle a bit each time, which was also really great.

She gasped. "I, like, totally am! You're super smart!"

Rhiss seemed taken aback for a moment, but quickly recovered. She narrowed her eyes at Candi, who was trying to subtly-but-not-really thrust her chest out to seem like a more tempting treat. Then she turned to Green. "Where did you say you got this one again?"

"Oh! It was really easy!" Green said, bouncing a bit in pride. "She just walked right up to the door!"

There was a long pause, then a suffering sigh from Rhiss. "And where, per se, did she say she was coming from or going?"

"Um... well..." Green put a finger to her lip in thought. "I think she just said she was passing through."

Candi was really confused. Why did it matter where she came from? It didn't mean she was any less fuckable, right? She pouted, trying to draw attention back to her by pretending to stretch, arching her back as much as possible and putting her ass and tits on display. It only worked on Green.

Rhiss rubbed the bridge of her nose with two fingers and shook her head. "Oh you poor dumb, silly, lustwitted bimbo." She sighed again. "She's a trap."

"And that's... bad?" Green said, not taking her eyes off Candi who'd started bouncing her tits up and down just for fun... and because Green had been staring at them.

"Yes," Rhiss snapped. "She's probably a distraction! Go check outside to make sure no one's trying to sneak past."

"Um... now?" Green's head had begun to bob up and down in sync with Candi's chest. Candi giggled at how cute it looked.

"Yes, now! I'll deal with this one. She's weak-willed enough that I doubt that she'll be any issue." When Green didn't move, Rhiss turned around to finally see what Candi was doing. She gently grabbed Candi's chin, running her thumb over Candi's lips, eliciting a whimper of desire. "Honey, I need you to stop doing that so my slut can do as she's told." Her eyes flashed red again and Candi suddenly felt like she'd been plunged into a gooey, warm pool of melted desire. She gasped, feeling a trickle of wetness begin crawling down her leg and immediately stopped bouncing.

Green pouted, but then seemed to register what she'd been told. "Right, on it, ma'am!" She turned and hustled out the door, locking it behind her.

"So... what now?" Candi asked, biting on the corner of her lip seductively. Rhiss had yet to let go over her chin, so Candi closed the distance and pressed her body up against the bandit captain's.

Rhiss chuckled. "Oh, honey, they really did work you up good. Shame I can't have my way with you. Yet," She leaned forward enough so that their lips didn't quite meet, but were just far enough away that the slightest movement could change that. Only, Candi felt locked in place by those deep, fierce, dominant eyes that were slowly glowing a brighter and brighter red. "Sleep."

Vellen watched as Elma paced anxiously in front of him as they waited, their carriage nestled and hidden within a small grove of trees, several hundred yards past the tower ruin. Truth be told, he felt much the same way as Elma, but had been trained to not forecast such things. Their driver was sprawled out across the bench of his coach and appeared to be napping.

"I don't like this," Elma said. "It's been too long. She should've met up with us by now."

"She's a crafty individual. If there's been a problem, I'm sure she'll find a way out of it," Vellen said, more for himself than Elma. It was his mission to protect and guide Mya Valenworth on her way to the headquarters of the Cloven Institution. He took his missions very seriously and it pained him to consider what could possibly be happening to her in that tower.

"Sure, Mya is," Elma said. "But remember who's currently at the reins?"

Vellen stifled a wince, this time for Elma's sake. Her face was contorted with worry and, well... It warmed Vellen's heart that the two had grown to care for each other. He wasn't sure if it was Elma's influence or... another individual's that had helped soften Mya, but the woman had grown tremendously in the few months since she'd arrived in the Lavender Coasts. He didn't want to see all the progress go to waste by her potentially becoming a bandit thrall or worse.

"You are right," Vellen said, then began to step forward. "I'll go rescue her."

A hand fell on his arm and held him in place. "Uh-uh. I don't think so, Vel."

"It's the most logical solution," Vellen explained. "I can't be tempted by them, so I'm the best choice."

"They're bandits. What do you think they're gonna do instead if they can't get a hold on your mind?"

Vellen paused. Ah. That was a good point.

"It's a better call if I go after her for the exact reason that they can potentially control me. They're not going to kill someone that's potential merchandise."

"And then what happens if they do manage to ensare your mind?"

"Trust me, pal." She grinned, patted his arm, then began backing up towards the treeline. "They're not gonna." Then she vanished into the foliage. Vellen had to commend her confidence, but still couldn't help but feel even more anxious now that she was gone.

Candi awoke in a different part of the tower. It was a small room that was separated in two down the middle by a row of metal bars and a metallic door. Weird. The side of the room that she wasn't on had a door against the wall that probably led to the rest of the tower, but Candi's side didn't have one, and when she tried the metal door, she found it didn't budge at all. How in the world was she supposed to get out?

It finally clicked.

A cell. She was in a cell. She wasn't supposed to get out. Candi giggled. Gosh, she was a total dummy sometimes.

Candi shivered, suddenly realizing how cold it was in the room. Why was that? She got her answer as she looked down to find that she'd been stripped naked. Something... Something about that seemed bad, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it, since being trapped in a room while naked sounded like it was going to lead to a lot of fun. She really needed some release after all the tension that had been building up in her since entering... Since entering the... the-

Mya gasped, her mind aching as her consciousness was forced back to the surface. She immediately stumbled back, using the wall to keep balanced until the world stopped spinning. No... No, she couldn't be in this situation. She couldn't. Desperately, she looked around for her clothes but couldn't see them anywhere in the room, be that within the cell or outside it.

Frantically, Mya ran up to the bars, shaking them in vain and pounding on the cell door to try to get either to budge. Logically, she knew she was being stupid, but right now her emotions weren't corroborating with logic. She stepped back with a start as the main door to the room suddenly opened and Rhiss, the bandit captain, stepped in.

"Let me go, now," Mya demanded, though it was difficult to muster any authority while she stood in a cell, completely nude, and terrified.

Rhiss stepped up to the bars, inspecting Mya up and down. Mya shuddered in repulsion. "There you are," Rhiss said. "I have to hand it to you, the act almost had me fooled. Not everyone can maintain a convincing bimbo like you."

Mya didn't say anything. Her mind was desperately racing, trying to come up with ways out of this scenario. Right now her odds didn't seem all too favorable, but her current best course of action was to go along with whatever this woman was saying.

"You should know that I'm going to enjoy breaking you," Rhiss continued. "But, if you tell me what I want to know, I'll make it easier on you."

"You're nothing better than dirt," Mya snapped. She knew tempting Rhiss's anger wasn't exactly a wise idea, but the words came out unbidden.

Rhiss simply smiled. "Oh I'm sure you'll change your tune soon, slut. The other three certainly did. I wonder what color I'll make you..."

Mya lifted her chin defiantly and crossed her arms. "Hmph. If I'm a slut then you must be a queen."

"Oh?" Rhiss raised an eyebrow and Mya promptly regretted saying what she did. There was a hunger in the demonic woman's eyes. A desire. She wanted to have her way with Mya. Badly. The only thing holding her back right now seemed to be... Mya wasn't sure. Foreplay? Regardless, it dawned on her that she was perhaps poking the bear far too much. "Hmmm." Rhiss lips curled into a grin. "Allow me to prove you right. Wait right there, honey."

She left the room and Mya began to shake. It was coming, she knew it. Mya could resist, she'd had before. But for how long? Her mind had to give out eventually and then... then...

Her tremors became more intense. Situations like these were the exact reason that Candi existed: to serve as a defense mechanism in a world that Mya was not equipped to handle. But there was no Candi this time. She had nothing she could use a trigger to bring her out.

Please, Mya begged in her mind. Please. I need you.

Nothing.

I know you're there, Mya said into her own mind. You've always been. Watching. She can't abandon me like this!

Again, nothing. Mya sank down to her knees in desperation.

I'm begging you... I can't do this without your help.

Mya felt a stirring within, a brush against her consciousness. Something... something wanted to help, but couldn't. There were rules. A barrier kept her from crossing to the other side where she could keep control, and the key to raising the barrier was nowhere to be found.

Mya lifted her head, feeling an idea coming on. Screw the barrier.

"It's a shame, really," She sighed dramatically, speaking aloud in the empty room. "I guess... I guess I'll just have to enjoy all the... um... yummy, yummy sex that'll be happening once she gets back." Mya had to fight back the urge to cringe at the last part.

The stirring grew and lightly pressed up against that mental wall, as if testing its strength.

"Yep," Mya continued. "Normally I'd let someone else have all the fun, but that doesn't seem like an option right now, so I guess it'll just have to all go to me."

The pushing grew stronger.

"We'll sucking." Stronger. "And fucking." Stronger. Cracks were beginning to form. "And doing all kinds of dirty things. I'll get to play with... with her breasts, while she plays with mine." The pressure on the wall grew with a vengeance. "We'll just be all wet and hot and sexy." The web of cracks continued outward, bits of the wall crumbling away. "I just can't wait to feel those fingers in my-"

The wall shattered.

Candi pouted as she jumped to her feet and stomped her foot. "But I wanna do that!" She blinked as she looked around the room and realized she was in control again. "Oh! Yay!" She giggled in satisfaction. Thank goodness! Smart-her could never appreciate a good fuck like Candi could.

A moment later, the door opened again and sexy Rhiss stepped inside, her juicy hips swinging from side to side as she walked up to the bars, something shiny in her hands. She thrusts the item through the gaps and into Candi's hands. "Look at yourself," she said. And Candi did, once she found out that it was a hand mirror.

Her reflection showed a woman, her hair flowing across her shoulders, the tail having been removed. The woman was also flustered, her face red and dotted with lipstick marks. There was something decidedly arousing about that. What kind of girl just let other girls pepper her with kisses and not bother to clean up what was left behind?

A slut.

Candi continued to stare at herself in the mirror in amazed. She couldn't help but appreciate just how fuckable she looked right now.

Apparently Rhiss agreed, since she chuckled and snapped for Candi to look up at her. "See? And what was it that you said? That if you're a slut then I'm a... a queen, was it?" Her eyes flashed red and Candi felt a thrum run down her spine, growing in intensity until it hit a crescendo within her pussy.

"Y-yeah," Candi said breathily.

"I do love how hard they fall." She reached through the bars and patted Candi on the cheek. When she pulled away, she stepped back a bit, then peeled off her jacket, tossing it to the side and revealing tone, sculpted arms that made Candi's mouth water. Rhiss winked at Candi, who squeaked and blushed in response. "I know you're putting on the act again."

Candi tilted her head to the side, confused. Act? What act? She didn't bother trying to figure it out as Rhiss went to the cell door, unlocking it and entering, closing and relocking it behind her.

"That's fine. I'm still going to turn your mind to dumb, horny mush either way. I doubt I'll even have to call upon my bloodline to do it too." Candi watched in adoration as Rhiss sauntered up to her, putting a dominant hand around Candi's waist and tilting her chin up to meet the horned woman's eyes with her free one. "Then, once you're all mine, I'll pry exactly what it is you're hiding from me and punish you for it."
