Revenge of the Satyr

The panic stricken peasant fell to his knees, both hands clasped together imploringly. His whole body began to shake jelly-like as Prince Vulkan slowly dismounted from his horse. The haughty young nobleman's handsome, yet spiteful face creased up into a vindictive frown as he advanced upon the hapless figure.

"How dare you withhold tax from the king you filthy, whingeing swine," the short-tempered prince screamed at the top of his voice. Punctuating his harsh words with a hail of withering blows from his riding quirt; lacing into the miller's face with the supple, stinging leather until the sobbing man threw himself prostrate into the dirt at the nobleman's feet.

"Mercy! Highness! Mercy!" the man begged wretchedly, "the drought has made the river all but disappear and without water the mill wheel will not turn and so I cannot earn enough to feed my family and pay the king's taxes," the miller's voice became even more wretched, "please Highness, I beg you and your gracious father to give me more time to pay."

The slender prince's narrow chest seemed to swell with an even greater volume of outrage.

"More time? more time? have you no beasts of burden with which to turn the mill wheel you indolent pig?" he roared, at the same time planting his boot into the back of the miller's neck, cruelly grinding the terrified, blubbering face into the dank earth.

"P-p-please Highness," the miller begged again, his voice quavering so much he could barely speak, "we had to slaughter our only bullock for meat and now I have only my wife and daughter to help me in the mill."

Prince Vulkan took time-out to look slowly around the small collection of tumbledown buildings and ramshackle yard. His mobile, twisting expression a cruel parody of confusion and indecision that instantly had his men smirking and nudging one another as they enjoyed their master's sinister sense of humour.

"Well then," the noble youth breathed at last, "let us get both of the lazy peasant sows out here and we shall see how well they turn the wheel with my whip dancing across their idle backs!"

Vulkan nodded curtly to his sergeant-at-arms; a barrel-chested giant of a man, who immediately disappeared into the nearby cottage to emerge a few moments later dragging the two terrified woman behind him, his huge fists buried in their tangled hair.

"On your knees before Prince Vulkan you mangy sluts," growled the lackey, pitching both females face down into the dirt as he spoke.

The prince slapped his quirt under the wife's quivering chin and jerked her face up to the sky. The woman may have once been enough, but after twenty odd years of over-taxed poverty and unending toil, her face was lined and tired looking and the sagging bundle of her bosom seemed almost to reach down to her waist. Allowing the mother's head to fall, Vulkan next tapped the plaited haft of his quirt under the daughter's chin and was pleasantly surprised to find a fresh and decidedly pretty face suddenly looking up at him, fear and uncertainty writ clearly in the cast of the large, moist brown eyes.

"Stand up trollop," the prince commanded, his voice softening subconsciously as all thoughts of putting the young girl to the mill wheel faded. His erstwhile peevish mood suddenly began to mellow. The girl climbed hesitantly to her feet to stand fidgeting – gnawing fretfully at the fulsome redness of her lips. She averted her doe-like eyes as the prince lifted her homespun calico dress to expose her shapely teenage thighs; the smooth, pale flesh leading his lascivious gaze inevitably up to the downy pubic mound with its delicate, tightly sealed lips nestling below the gently curving dome of her belly.

"Very well, sirrah," the prince said at last, his rage finally subsiding, "I will grant you more time to pay. But that time and my father's inconvenience must be paid for by an afternoon's use of your charming daughter here."

The miller's voice, whether in protest, or relief, simply came out as a strangled gurgle as Vulkan continued to stand uncaringly on his neck.

Flashing a generous smile the prince turned to his grinning men.

"Tie the stupid old bastard up to yonder gatepost and flog some respect into him," he said, beginning to drag the reluctant teenager off toward the nearby barn, "and then you lot can fuck some happiness into the girl's mother, she looks as if she could sorely use it."

As he spoke the miller's wife began to wail hysterically, her head shaking wildly from side-to-side. The terrified woman suddenly leapt to her feet and ran from man-to-man, imploring each grinning soldier to show her mercy. Her cries suddenly turned to shrieks of horror however, as a pair of laughing troopers began to pull her this way and that between them, ripping her already shoddy dress into long tatters. Exposing her swaying udders and broad, dimpled rump as they suddenly pounced upon her and dragged her howling back into the mill for the first of that afternoon's many fuckings.

The laughing prince closed the barn door behind him and turned to face the girl who stood paralysed. She stared mutely at him, her small fingers clutching at the neck and hem of her baggy peasant smock.

"We will lie over there," he said, indicating a fresh pile of straw in the corner, "take off your dress so that I can see what you have for me."

The girl shook her head slowly from side-to-side and backed up a step.

"Please," she whimpered, "please let me go master." Her voice sounded small in the large barn and the pathetic sound of it brought the first serious twitch of interest from the prince's slowly swelling cock.

The noble smiled coldly at her.

"If you give me any trouble slut," he threatened, his voice once again taking on a brittle, menacing edge, "I'll turn you over to my men for a taste of what your miserable parents are getting."

As he spoke, the crack of the first lash ripping into her father's back echoed across the yard. Followed immediately by his high-pitched scream as the flesh over his ribs was split apart by the coarse leather tongue of the big sergeant's bullwhip. The hellish sound made the girl flinch and after a brief moment of agonised indecision, she dropped her hands slowly to her sides. A dread feeling of hopelessness overwhelmed her as she resigned herself to her fate. She watched mesmerized as the prince stripped off his rich garments, exposing his slender, pale body to her until finally he stood naked, his cock sticking straight out from the fuzz of blonde pubic hair. The girl had never seen an erect penis before and the strangeness of it filled her young mind with profound disquiet.

Hissing impatiently, Vulkan took hold of the neck of her peasant dress and tore the flimsy garment straight down the centre, casting away the ruined material so that she finally stood nude before him.

The greedy nobleman gathered the girl to him, crushing her lithe body against his own so that he could feel her softness. He swayed slowly from side-to-side so that her budding, pink nipples raked across his chest. He groaned as he ground his cock against the silky smoothness of her belly, at the same time burying his face in her hair to inhale the tart, earthy freshness of her.

The girl hung frozen against him, allowing herself to be supported in his arms as he groaned and rubbed himself against her for several long moments. She uttered a low, mournful croak as she felt the stickiness of the pre-ejaculate weeping from his cock-slit smear across the flesh of her quivering abdomen as he continued to grind himself against her. Her fearful moans turning into a yelp of alarm as the prince wound his hand into the rich tangle of her hair and pulled her head back so that he could cover her lips with his own.

However, the girl stubbornly refused to allow his tongue into her mouth, clenching her jaws tightly together. Testily, Vulkan wrenched the girl's head back as far as it would go and slapped her hard across both cheeks, making her cry out as her head was snapped back and forth so hard her teeth seemed to rattle in their sockets.

Again Vulkan offered the girl his mouth, at the same time wrapping the fingers of his other hand around the slender column of her neck, squeezing to let her know that his patience were all but at an end.

Realising that she did not have the strength to resist him any further the girl allowed her lips to part. She whinnied like frightened foal as his tongue pushed its way into her softly yielding mouth and began its serpent-like exploration of her sweet palate. At the same time the Prince walked her slowly backward until she stood knee deep in the hay pile and then he bore down on her, tripping her with his foot behind hers so that she fell backward – legs akimbo. He fell with her, landing neatly between her thighs, his urgent glans already butting up against the tightly sealed entrance to her nether mouth.

"Please sir," the girl whispered against the side of his neck, her voice breathless with her panic as he took hold of his stiff shaft and began to force the head between the tightly drawn curtains of her outer labia. And then, the final pathetic entreaty, "have pity noble lord – I am a virgin."

To the corrupt Prince Vulkan, the heady combination of the girl's manifest fear of him, her unblemished youthful pulchritude and finally, her anguished confirmation that she was virgo intacta was a totally intoxicating mix. As such, it could only served to aggravate his already galloping sexual appetite. The young nobleman levered himself up on to his right arm so that he could look down into her face.

"What a priceless little slut you are my dear," he murmured and pursing his thin lips let fall a long strand of spittle on to the tip of her upturned nose, giggling with delight as the clear liquid coursed down over her pink cheek. He hung there, savouring her terrified expression, the quivering vermilion lips, the flushed complexion and the soft brown eyes – huge and brimming with tears.

"Absolutely priceless." As he uttered the last mocking syllable, he thrust forward as hard as he could. Embedding the first third of his shaft in the girl's incredibly tight sheath, wrenching a tortured wail from her as her hymen was ripped away. Quickly, he took hold of her shoulders and transferred his entire weight to his arms, pinning her torso down into the hay, pumping his hips until he was fully embedded within her. Again he paused to enjoy her expression: now one of total desolation as she turned her face to the side and closed her eyes to the pain. Her small, white teeth buried in her lower lip until the blood ran and her tiny hands clutching at his forearms as he began to batter madly at her sex. He was heedless of her pain as his lean, hard hips bruised the softness of her inner thighs as he sought to quench his desperately selfish need.

The prince was neither a powerful, nor a long lasting youth and soon attained his climax. Grunting out his pleasure in a few short, sharp gasps as his thin semen jetted out to fill the girls small, brutalised vagina. His fluids blending with the thin streams of blood issuing from the shredded flesh of her sundered hymen.

With a satisfied groan, the now sated youth rolled off the girl and settled back into the hay, his cock soon becoming flaccid and useless. As his ardour cooled, the youth clasped his hands behind his head and regarded the girl closely from beneath his closely drawn eyelids. He was looking for any signs of mockery on her part, for in truth he knew that he was not well endowed and to that particular shortcoming he had an over developed sensitivity. A sensitivity rammed into him over many miserable years by the taunts of his three bullying half-brothers.

All of the older boys took after their father, the heavy bodied King Harken. Whereas Vulkan favoured his mother, a small boned, flaxen haired creature that the king had taken as his second wife after the death of the old Queen Helga. His father had married Vulkan's mother only because of the land she brought with her as dowry and neither she, nor the skinny Vulkan had ever enjoyed the king's fullest favours. Hence Vulkan was detailed to spend most of the year travelling around the small kingdom, collecting his father's taxes and partaking, whenever the opportunity arose, of perks like those offered by the common little slut now weeping miserably beside him.

Satisfied that the girl had been suitably impressed by his vigour, Vulkan closed his eyes and began to doze off. A small smile of contentment playing across his lips at the sounds of his men's laughter drifting over from the cottage where the girl's mother was continuing to provide sport.

As the inattentive prince slumbered carelessly, a cloaked and hooded figure stole surruptiously from the forest edge to make its way to the barn, behind the backs of the troopers who were intent only upon taking their turns to rape the hapless miller's wife.

Once inside, the mysterious interloper worked quickly and silently, casting a fine sleeping mist over the girl, as she lay shocked and trembling in the hay. The potion stifling her scream before it could rise in her throat to rouse the slumbering prince. Next he wafted a tiny glass bottle under the youth's nostrils and began to whisper in his ear in a strange sibilant tongue, until presently, the young prince arose slack jawed and heedless of his nakedness to follow the mysterious figure back into the forest from whence it had come.

*****

With infinite slowness, the arch thaumaturge, Lord Malpurgo of Castle Gliss, turned the tiny crystal valve between forefinger and thumb. Thus, introducing the final element of the complex combination of drugs he had been carefully feeding to the helpless Prince Vulkan for the past month of his confinement.

The pale, pink tincture flowed out of the apparatus and disappeared into the silver cannular embedded in the young prince's tightly bound wrist. The wizard drew forth the powerful Talisman of Pesch from the folded depths of his robes and clutched the gently glowing stone in his bird-like fist, feeling the faint heat seep into his aged flesh. Finally, he began to utter the mysterious incantation that would forever fix the frightening metamorphosis deep within the youth's maladapted physiology. For several tense minutes the tall, hunched figure of the wizard hovered over the still form; examining, watching, probing, until he was certain that his labour of many days was well done.

Satisfied at long last, he spoke the simple phrase required to bring the docile prince out of the hypnotic trance that had constrained him throughout the long course of his diabolical treatment. Malpurgo gestured to the squat figure of the patient grull waiting nearby, instructing the dwarf-like creature to swing the heavy examination table into the vertical position so that the awakening prince could look around the room.

Malpurgo's pale lemon orbs watched, as Prince Vulkan acquainted himself for the first time with the dark interior of the wizard's laboratory. The youth's red rimmed eyes widened with fear, as they moved reluctantly across the many shelves and benches, all stacked high with ancient leather-bound tomes, unknown chemical agents and mysterious preparations. His horrified gaze rested reluctantly here and there upon the many strange machines and scientific instruments of his captor's preternatural trade.

Finally, the stupefied Vulkan looked down at his own body, which was naked save for the heavy leather straps binding his arms and legs and the immovable broad iron band encircling his waist.

"What have you done to me?" the prince croaked thickly, his mouth sticky and suffused with the bitter taste of copper after so many days of drug-induced somnolence. He moaned in disbelief as he gradually became aware of the changes that had been wrought upon his erstwhile slender, pale-skinned figure. His skin tone had deepened considerably, with dark, freckled patches spreading out from his armpits and crotch. His body mass appeared to have more than doubled; his shoulders had broadened, his chest deepened and the once slim arms and legs now bulged with corded muscle that strained against the creaking bonds and beneath the girdling band his belly was as hard and unyielding as a stone pavement.

Malpurgo's smile was meagre and not intended to reassure.

"I have improved you beyond measure my prince," the mocking voice was thin, yet cracked with the power of breaking river ice, "I have made you stronger, fiercer, more cunning and," he grinned lewdly, "infinitely more virile."

Once again, Vulkan looked down, twitching in sudden alarm as the wizard reached between his spread thighs and hefted the heavy genitals into view. His penis was hugely increased in length and girth, with a tangled pattern of blue green veins raised all around the shaft. The testes had also become massively enlarged and now lay squirming slowly together in the wizard's skeletal palm. Vulkan groaned in humiliation as the brief handling stimulated the monstrous sex, which now began to rise. The bulbous, dark purple glans swelled to shrug off the thickened prepuce, at the same time expelling a single, large bead of seminal fluid from the pouting slit.

"Why have you done this to me," Vulkan stammered, "you have turned me into a freak!" The youth's quaking voice threatened to turn into a scream as he fought to control his rapidly burgeoning panic.

Malpurgo released the turgid genitalia, nodding in clinical satisfaction as the monstrous shaft continued to stand straight up against Vulkan's flat belly.

"I have re-fashioned you," he said, pride evident in his crackling voice, "transmogrified you, in the way of the ancient necromancers."

"W-why?" hissed Vulkan desperately, "in God's name why would you do such a thing to me – to what dreadful end?"

Malpurgo smiled showing two rows of sharp, predatory teeth.

"Hardly in His name," sniggered the wizard, "the spell is running its course, you are now entering the final, irreversible stages of satyriasis. In only a few hours the process will be complete and you will become a fully developed satyr and, as such, you will serve me as all of my familiars serve me; with total, unstinting obedience, even unto death."

"Never!… I will never serve the one who has done this evil thing to me," Vulkan rasped, his expression bitter and wretched as he looked down with revulsion at the dark, crinkled pelt that now sprouted over much of his chest and belly.

The Lord of Gliss tossed his head back and laughed aloud. A terrible, demonic sound that made the youth's blood chill in his veins.

"Oh yes you will my prince, you will indeed serve me, or else I will put you to sleep again and when you awake you will find yourself neutered, shrunken and shambling about with the rest of my trusty grulls."

Malpurgo clucked his tongue over his shoulder and the ever-present grull hopped once more into view on its bandy legs, the stupid, faithful face upturned and eager to please its master.

Vulkan stared down in disbelieving horror at the misshapen midget.

"Do you mean to say that thing was once a man?" asked the youth, his tone and expression askance.

"Once, a long time ago," conceded the wizard, this grull came to my demesne as a brash young man with a handful of others of similar ilk. All of them intent upon chastising me for a trifling prank I had played upon their Lord. I declined to be tied to the public post and beaten as they had intended and now all serve me in various, menial ways."

Vulkan closed his eyes and tried to calm his galloping terror and worse, far worse, this new nightmare of going to sleep and waking up an idiotic gargoyle.

*****

The grulls wheeled the large table on which the prince lay into an adjoining chamber and positioned it in a deep alcove where he could see the room, but remained discreetly hidden within the inky shadows.

A short time later the grulls returned, dragging with them the reluctant, whimpering figure of a busty serving wench, whom they shackled by the wrists to the room's only fixture, a tall wooden post set into the centre of the slab floor. The chamber was dimly lit by a single shaft of wan sunlight that entered through a circular aperture in the domed ceiling and which now fell directly on to the woman. The light illuminated the full curves of her voluptuous, peasant body as she stood peering uncertainly into the surrounding gloom.

The tightly bound Vulkan moaned softly, the quaking sound resonating in the depths of his belly. His quiescent prick immediately began to rise as he feasted his eyes upon the naked female standing only feet away. As Vulkan's newly augmented libido asserted itself he quickly became aware of a number of subtle changes in his faculties. His eyesight seemed far more acute, easily able to pick out the crop of tiny goose bumps speckling the woman's broad pink aureoles as she stood shivering in the cold, damp air. His sense of smell had also become heightened with the fecund odours of her crotch and armpits suddenly sharp in his flaring nostrils. And the soft sounds of her feet, shifting nervously on the granite slabs, came easily to his ears, as did her gentle, fearful mewing. A delicious sound that filled him with an unspeakable volume of raw sexual hunger.

Vulkan began to pant rapidly, perspiration springing out onto his quivering body as he began to twist and strain against his bonds.

Slowly, the wench became aware of the presence of another in the room and twisted toward the darkened alcove in alarm, her chains rattling dully as she raised her hands to her face.

"Who's there?" She called in a small, shaking voice.

By way of answer, Vulkan simply groaned more loudly. His shaft was now standing straight up from his groin and his heavily dependent balls throbbed with an over abundance of turgid spunk.

The woman called out again, at the same time straining her eyes in a vain attempt to penetrate the shadowy alcove.

"W-who's there? p-please, show yourself, please, you're frightening me."

Vulkan grinned behind the darkness, his head swimming with lust as he pulled impatiently against the straps holding him.

"Bitch! Whore! Slut!" he hissed at her out of the shadows, "I want to fuck your hairy peasant cunt until you piss yourself!"

The woman shrank back against the post, a strangled cry escaping from her horrified lips as Vulkan began to grunt and spit at her. His need for sex was now so strong that he had difficulty concentrating and was only dimly aware of the grulls appearing at his sides to unfasten his bonds.

When the final restraining band fell away from his waist, Vulkan bounded from the table to land directly in front of the cowering creature. Immediately she clapped eyes on him she began to shriek with horror, her knees giving way as the plunging sunlight illuminated his massive, demonic form.

The satyr, for that what he was now truly becoming, reached out and clapped his palms around the frozen face, drawing it toward the monstrous cock swaying and bouncing in front the blubbering mouth now opening wide to scream again. But before the terrified female could give voice to her fright, Vulkan shot his hips forward, impaling her face upon his iron hard shaft. He groaned ecstatically as the bulging, purple glans filled up the woman's soft mouth, spreading her tongue flat with his enormous bulk as he began to rock slowly back and forth, working the great cock-head into the top of her throat.

Vulkan dragged her whole body toward him by the head, continuing to pull as the chains attached to her wrists drew bar-tight, twisting her shoulders, extending her neck out to breaking point so that he could ram himself straight down into her gullet. The woman thrashed about in acute distress as her gag reflex overwhelmed her. Her full breasts heaved, the big brown nipples hard with fear as Vulkan began to stroke in and out, heedless of her agony. His only concern to assuage his overpowering need for release, which, to the floundering woman's immense relief he quickly attained.

The prince's entire body stiffened and shook as his orgasm overtook him, with slug after slug after slug of boiling hot semen rushing up the length of his shaft to roar down her gullet. As he reamed her bulging throat, the excess fluid spewed out of the corners of her mouth and nostrils to run down over her chin. The thick liquid foaming as she spluttered and coughed around his monstrous girth, unable as she was to swallow the totality of the seemingly endless load of thickened spume.

At the height of his climax, Vulkan threw back his head and roared out in triumph. The sound of his voice boomed and reverberated around the vaulted chamber as he stood rigidly to attention, his musculature as hard as beaten iron as the incredible sensations exploded out of his groin to flood every fibre of his new being with raw sexual energy. He gasped with wonder as the fountain of boiling spunk continued to pulse from his throbbing balls, even as he withdrew his turgid phallus from the woman's mouth and splattered his final fluids over her heaving breasts.

Spent at last, he released her so that she sagged down on to all fours, gasping with heartfelt thanks that the massive organ had at last been withdrawn from her mouth. She sucked in huge gulps of much needed air, her stomach pumping erratically as she tried to balance her breathing.

However, her relief proved short lived as Vulkan stooped and fastened his hands about her ankles, yanking her legs straight out behind her at the level of his waist. Stretching her entire body straight out between the post and his powerful frame. Once again, the wench began to scream as her tormentor spun her through one hundred and eighty degrees, twisting the chains together at her wrists so that she was presented to him belly up.

"Oh please God! help me!" she cried desperately as Vulkan spread her legs wide and shuffled forward between them. His hands moving up to grasp at the soft flesh behind her knees as he offered his cock up the darkly haired bulge of her tightly sealed sex. The woman craned her neck to look disbelievingly at the satyr's mighty weapon, still furiously erect despite his titanic orgasm of only a few moments ago. Vulkan grinned widely at her disbelieving goggle-eyed expression.

"Oh yes bitch," he snarled nastily, "I still have plenty of juice left for you."

The serving girl shook her head from side-to-side sobbing desperately.

"No please don't, it's too big, you'll rip me apart."

Prince Vulkan's eyes seemed to gleam with a maniacal brilliance as he listened to her desperate pleas, his smile spreading even wider as he taunted her.

"Then prepare to be ripped apart, slut."

As he spoke, the satyr grunted massively and thrust his pelvis forward, the semen and saliva soaked cock plunging into her unprepared vulva all of the way up to her waiting cervix in one searing action. The wench's scream soared to an even higher pitch as her innermost tract was, in one excruciating instant, torn fully open and stretched far beyond anything it had ever known before.

"Vulkan threw back his head and roared in unsympathetic unison with her, tossing her hips up and down excitedly in his powerful arms as he savoured the ecstasy of her deliciously tight sheath. Then he began to lunge into her; long, furious strokes that wrenched the delicate leaves of her labia in and out, pummelling the entrance to her womb until she ached throughout the whole of her pudendum.

The wench could only hang in the air shaking helplessly, flopping about like a rag-doll as the newly emerging satyr used her to sate his terrible need for sex. She sobbed as her insides cramped, his rigid phallus expanding to even greater proportions in the moments prior to his second ejaculation. The massive outpouring flooded forth in a boiling cataract to wash against the entrance to her bruised womb, the overflow running out to coat the insides of her thighs.

The merciless shafting went on for hours as the maladapted prince explored his newfound carnal appetite. He revelled in his sexual power over the female as he fucked her with a priapic energy that he had only dreamt about before his terrible, yet remarkable transmogrification.

*****

At dawn, Malpurgo entered the chamber to find Vulkan on his knees, once again busily thrusting himself into the grunting female resting on all fours before him. This time, the humungous, veined rod was lodged in the wench's anus and despite the cool, dank atmosphere; her jolting body was bathed in sweat from her hours of effort. She strove to keep her arms locked and her hips sharply upturned lest the cruel prince have greater cause to punish by slapping and pinching at her abundant buttocks, breasts and belly meat.

The wizard had to call out three times before Vulkan heard and obeyed the deep-seated hypnotic suggestion. Haltingly and with evident reluctance, he disengaged himself from the woman, leaving her to subside into the floor, her arms and legs leaden with exhaustion. Between her slack thighs the crushed and bloodied openings of her rectum and vulva gaped wide, twin rivers of thick, lathered effluvium pouring slowly from both devastated orifices to pool beneath her on the cool stone.

Obediently, Vulkan allowed the ever-present grulls to lead him back to the upturned table, standing quiescent as they fastened his restraints and cranked the mechanism flat, before wheeling the table across the passage into the wizard's laboratory.

Once back in his inner sanctorum Malpurgo proceeded to reinforce Vulkan's trance like state with a further selection of drugs and spells. The wizard implanted additional hypnotic suggestions deep within the malformed psyche, powerful routines that would allow the rapacious prince to control his monstrous sexual urges once he had left the security of Castle Gliss. Satisfied that all was finally ready, Malpurgo brought Vulkan back to life.

The prince looked at the wizard and then down at himself. This time without any feelings of revulsion, for the magical compounds that Malpurgo had previously introduced into his body had now taken their full effect. The wizard noted the dawning light of acceptance in the prince's expression and nodded knowingly to himself. He had deliberately chosen the cruel, selfish and venal Prince Vulkan above a more righteous subject as the changing process followed and amplified existing character traits. And Lord Malpurgo required a cruel, selfish and venal man, albeit one with special gifts, to achieve his ends.

The wizard waited until his subject's eyes lost their glassy look and focussed upon his face.

"Are you ready to serve me now my prince?"

"What must I do?" the youth replied immediately.

"Something that will come very easy to a satyr," said Malpurgo simply, "you must fuck!"

"Who's the lucky lady?" asked Vulkan quickly. The mere mention of the sex act making the thickened twist of cock flesh once again writhe between his thighs as if with a will of its own.

"Queen Amariza and her daughter the Princess Flamia and all the other ladies of child bearing age in the royal household of the Kingdom of Dashane," said the wizard. His voice became almost hushed as he considered the appalling scope of his coming revenge.

"You will scourge and despoil them all, impregnating each with a litter of malignant imps that will grow to overrun and destroy Good King Leopold's royal dynasty for ever!"

Vulkan grinned lasciviously as he visualised the task ahead.

"May I ask what Leopold has done to so earn your enmity my master?"

Malpurgo sat down in a large throne like chair carved from an ancient block of dense, dark wood and smiled almost pleasantly at his creation.

"Two summers ago Dashane's northern borders were plagued by nomad raiders who struck deep into the rich cantons of Muck, Haldane and Showa; murdering, raping and plundering. Always they struck at night and by the time Leopold's knights would arrive, the raiders were always long gone, disappeared into the mountains from whence they came. Leopold appealed to me to use my powers to divine the secret hiding places of the nomads, saying that I could name my own reward if I served him truly, which I did and he led a great campaign to wipe them out. When the King returned victorious, I duly attended his Court and applied for payment in the form of the hand of his daughter the Princess Flamia."

Malpurgo grimaced at the still bitter memories.

"Leopold refused, saying that I was attempting to trick him to demand such a precious prize. Whilst the Queen publically branded me a pervert and a fool and ordered the guards to flog me out of the palace. And so it transpired, with the young Flamia and all of the assembled nobles of the court laughing and scoffing at me."

The wizard's smile was corpse-like as he relived the disagreeable encounter.

"On that day, confident Leopold's largesse, I had neglected to forearm myself with sufficient care and my magic failed to save me – a mistake I will never make again."

The wizard shook his head as if to banish the memory for good.

"You, my royal prince, will teach Leopold's court the true meaning of perversion, foolishness and pain in full measure."

"Where are my men," asked the prince, "I had a dozen hand picked men at arms in my escort."

The wizard gestured absently, as if the matter were of no consequence.

"Gone back to your flatulent father with their tails between their legs. Doubtless spewing forth some cock and bull story about how they were overcome by insurmountable odds and robbed of his precious taxes," the wizard smirked, "I doubt that old Harken will shed any tears over your disappearance my disappointing prince, although the loss of his tribute will probably cost your men dear."

At a signal from the wizard, the ever-present grulls stumped forward and unfastened Vulkan's many bindings. The prince stepped down from the table and flexed his newly acquired musculature, his hand going automatically to grip the huge phallus. Without a trace of self-consciousness the satyr pumped his fist up and down the length of rapidly solidifying meat in front of the watching wizard and his dim witted grulls. Masturbating hugely until the desperately needed orgasm crashed through his rippling belly, hurling countless fierce pulses of red-hot semen high into the air. The changeling collapsed to his knees grunting harshly, the tightly bunched shoulder muscles shaking violently as he continued feverishly milking the final exquisite sensations from the quivering cock.

And whilst Prince Vulkan sat crouched over his throbbing member, the air in the sepulchral chamber was rent over and over by the harsh, cackling laughter of the Arch Thaumaturge, Lord Malpurgo of Gliss.

*****

Prince Vulkan stood dressed in a suit of glittering mail and plate armour that served to gird and accentuate his new and powerful frame. At his side, a broad sword fashioned by Malpurgo himself, hung in a finely tooled leather and brass scabbard. The prince accepted a fur-collared cloak from one of the ubiquitous grulls before mounting his warhorse. Once in the saddle Vulkan walked his snorting steed over to where the wizard waited on a first floor balcony.

"The Kingdom of Dashane cherishes fighting prowess above all else," the wizard told him, "in little over a week, at the midsummer festival called to celebrate Princess Flamia's sixteenth birthday, many brave knights and all manner of princelings from both minor and major houses will congregate to fight for her hand in marriage. In my laboratory, I have used the powerful Crystal of Pesch and my sorcerer's skills to give you the stature, physical strength and speed of reflex to best them all and claim the young Flamia. When you win the contest, Leopold will be honour bound by ancient custom to accept you as his prospective son-in-law and take you into the palace. Once inside, you will have all of the time you need to reek the full measure of my revenge upon them all."

The prince leant forward in his saddle. "Fear not my lord wizard, for I swear that I shall fuck all that are willing and ravage all that are not and at the end of my time in Leopold's palace there will not be one blue blooded lady who has not felt the full length of my great cock in all her intimate passages and the harsh caress of my scourge across her back."

"But remember!" Malpurgo counselled Vulkan to caution, "whilst more than a match for any handful of skilled men-at-arms in open combat you are not invulnerable. Find yourself trussed and helpless on the headsman's block, or caught up in a burning hayrick with a loose-legged goose girl and you will die like any lesser man. Disguise your sybaritic appetites from public view at all times. Use the mental routines I have taught you to control your urges. Masturbate as little as possible as such empty stimulation will only serve to agitate your mood, for only women's flesh can assuage your carnality. In the small chest are powders and potions that will help you subjugate, confuse and kill; I have planted knowledge within your psyche so that you will know how to use them when needed."

So without further ado, the lone prince cantered out over the drawbridge and spurred his coal black steed toward the distant ribbon of hills beyond which lay the wealthy and fabulous realm of Dashane.

Malpurgo visited the buxom serving wench he had previously put to Prince Vulkan each morning for three days following the satyr's departure. On the first morning, he found the woman tossing and turning on her narrow bed in the grip of a ferocious fever, her body flushed and running with perspiration as she battled with violent delirium.

On the second, her fever had broken and she lay comatose. The sluggish rise and fall of her chest almost indiscernible, even to his expert eye as her exhausted body struggled to recover itself.

On the third, Malpurgo entered the cell to find the woman once again sweating and febrile, but now her hazel eyes were clear, bright, and filled with a fierce intensity as she looked at him. This time cause of her fever was very different from that of the first day.

"Where is he?" she demanded, rising up as far as her wrist and ankle chains would allow. Her bitten and bruised body squirmed fretfully as she ground her broad rump into the straw filled mattress.

"Bring him to me, I need to feel his great cock inside me now!"

Malpurgo placed his hand lightly upon the wench's upraised knee. It took only the merest touch to make her thighs fall wide open, a soft hiss of anticipation escaping her lips as she exposed the sopping, overheated vulva with its turgescent labia gaping slackly and the clitoris, thickened and standing proud – aching for stimulation.

Malpurgo dipped his fingers into the steaming tropic; his smile broadening as the woman pushed her pelvis steeply upward, grunting huskily as the wizard reamed the entrance to her vagina with his long, thin fingers.

After a few moments, Malpurgo removed his hand from the wench's sucking sex and reached over to release the shackle restraining her right wrist. Instantly, she wrenched her hand free and plunged her fingers into herself, ramming in all four digits in up to the palm. The wench moaned desperately, her belly pumping in and out as she forced the solid width of her knuckles past the entrance until only her thumb remained on the outside of her cunt to massage the bulging clitoris.

Malpurgo beamed in a dread sort of approval as he reached into his robe and withdrew a length of dark green kracx horn, intricately carved by some long forgotten artisan to represent a huge curving phallus. The wizard hefted the solid length in his palm and smirked down at the straining woman, saying sarcastically.

"His Royal Highness Prince Vulkan apologises for his absence and asked if I would give you this until he returns."

The wench withdrew her hand from her streaming sex and snatched the dildo from the wizard. She plunged the thickened length into herself, puffing out her cheeks in a loud gust of appreciation as she began to ram the dildo in and out. Desperately seeking to emulate the monumental thrusting she had experienced from the rapacious prince.

Malpurgo watched patiently until the wench screamed and shook with her fourth consecutive orgasm before turning to leave the tiny chamber. The sinister, vulpine countenance uplifted after witnessing the confirmation of the final aspect of his terrible plan – the wench was infected with the satyr's hellish gift… Nymphomania!

*****

After five long days in the saddle, Prince Vulkan crested a rise to find himself looking down into a gently wooded vale through which ran the ancient, meandering roadway that lead into the Kingdom of Dashane.

As he reconnoitred, his attention was immediately drawn to a small group of armed men surrounding a coach, that had been run off the hard packed dirt track into the shade of some low, spreading trees. Here and there, the bodies of the escorting troopers lay strewn in awkward death postures and from behind the coach came the ringing clangs of sword on sword as the last of the defenders was cornered and slaughtered.

Unhurriedly, Vulkan drew the telescope out of his saddlebag and raised it to his eye. The heretofore-unknown device was only one of the many remarkable accoutrements with which the amazing Malpurgo had supplied him.

From his vantage point he watched as the half dozen surviving attackers began to ransack the vast array of luggage piled high atop the grand looking carriage. Vulkan was about to turn away when he heard the unmistakable, high pitched cry of a lady in fear of her chastity, issue from within the darkened interior of the coach. Another ruffian, presumably the leader, was taking his pleasure with the unknown passenger the prince reasoned.

At the thought of the rape in progress, Vulkan's mighty cock gave a lurch inside his breeches. The enforced celibacy of the past five days suddenly weighed heavily upon him, making his belly feel painfully hollow.

Moving swiftly now that his mind was made up, Vulkan put the looking glass away, slipped his shield on to his left arm, and snatched up one of his short lances in his right hand. He spurred his horse down the hillside, guiding the powerful animal with deft touched of his knees as he slalomed purposefully between the intervening trees.

The robbers were so engrossed in sorting through their booty that they failed to hear Vulkan's lightening fast approach until he was almost on top of them. As the first to realise the danger leapt up, Vulkan veered his mount sharply to the side and crashed the full weight of the stallion into him, sending the man flying through the air to dash himself against one of the huge, iron rimmed coach wheels – instantly snapping his spine. Simultaneously, Vulkan thrust the point of his lance into the next nearest man who was still on his knees, transfixing him to the ground beneath with the sheer force of the strike. As he wheeled around all of the remaining, men were now up on their feet, howling with rage and alarm and casting desperately about for their discarded weapons. However, Vulkan gave then no quarter. He spurred the stallion savagely, bursting in amongst them, his sword flashing in great circles to left and right as he lopped off hands and arms and delivered cleaving blows to heads and shoulders.

The action lasted barely twenty seconds and as he dismounted, the leader of the brigands appeared in the doorway of the coach, a wicked looking dagger clenched between his bared teeth, his fingers desperately trying to drag up and fasten his breeches as he surveyed the amazing carnage.

With casual, unconscious skill, Vulkan drew and threw his heavy dirk in one fluid motion, so that it appeared as if by magic with a solid thud, buried up to the hilt in the bandit's chest. The luckless recipient blew out his final breath in sad grunt of surprise before slowly pitching out on to the grass beneath.

Vulkan clambered up into the coach in time to see the single female occupant drawing her voluminous skirts back down over a pair of extremely shapely thighs. However, not before he had seen the succulent lips of her recently vacated vulva pouting invitingly and glistening with the sheen of the now dead rapist's jism.

"I am in your debt My Lord," the woman gushed somewhat breathlessly, "my cousin, The King, will richly reward you for your valour this day." She quickly finished fluffing her skirts and calmly seated herself on one of the plushly upholstered benches.

Vulkan fought desperately to control his impulses. The unexpected combat had driven him half mad with blood lust. In addition, the sight of the noblewoman's cunt dripping with love juice and the heady smell of sex within the tiny confines of the coach were overpowering to his highly attuned senses.

Reluctantly, he dragged his fierce gaze out of her lap to look at her face for the first time and was powerless to suppress a soft, sough of approval forcing itself from his lips. The woman was nonpareil! A vision of pale skinned, red headed loveliness. Obviously wealthy and impeccably well bred – and what was that she had said about the King?

Vulkan took a lurching step forward as she began to dab at herself from a small, enamelled flask of heavily perfumed oil, in an effort to camouflage the rank sexual fust the unwashed swine had left upon her flesh.

The prince swayed unsteadily as he sought for the necessary incantation that would cool his blood. Muttering under his breath as she, mistaking his behaviour for exhaustion, or worse, injury, leapt up to steady him. The deep valley of her cleavage bulged outward, threatening to escape her fashionably tight bodice as she struggled to hold him up. Vulkan closed his eyes in desperation as the milky white chasm swam before his eyes seeking to envelope and drown him.

"Oh no! are you wounded My Lord?" she gasped, her voice mellifluous despite her recent trial, "please sit down here, beside me, let me tend you."

Vulkan allowed himself to be seated and feigned fatigue whilst he brought his stampeding thoughts under control Thankful that his battle gear concealed the monstrous erection now forcing its inexorable way down his right thigh.

"You, er, mentioned the king, madam," said the prince at last, "would that be Leopold of Dashane by any chance?"

"Why yes it would, Leopold is my cousin," she trilled proudly, "and it will be my pleasure to present you to him at court, his gratitude for saving me from those unspeakable vermin will be boundless I assure you."

She held out her delicate, exquisitely manicured hand to him. "I am on my way to the king's keep from my husband's border lands," she confided, "I am the Countess Jessica; Lady in Waiting to the Princess Lilliphane – the king's beloved sister."

"Prince Vulkan of Janudor," he returned, enjoying the warmth of her soft fingers in his massive palm, "forever at your service My Lady." As reverently as possible he lifted her hand to his lips, resisting the almost overpowering urge to sink his teeth into her pretty, white knuckles.

The countess lowered her eyelids demurely, but not before he had seen the glint of naked desire flicker deep within the beautiful blue orbs. As she withdrew her hand from his, he felt her stroke her long nails against his palm in a gesture of lubricious over-familiarity. It would seem that the lady had not been too distressed at either, her recent ravishment, nor by the subsequent slaughter of her escort and erstwhile malefactors.

It was another two days slow travel to Leopold's keep. Vulkan smiled in contentment, things were beginning to work out nicely.

"As it happens I am on my way to Dashane myself," he said, "to compete in Princess Flamia's joust."

"Ahhh, I see, then you intend to fight for the little princess' hand in marriage."

"Indeed I do."

"Well, Flamia could hardly hope to have a more handsome, or valiant suitor now could she?" purred the countess as she solicitously dabbed the perspiration from Vulkan's overheated brow with her soft kerchief.

Vulkan was stirred by the sound of groaning coming from the wounded outside. He stepped down from the coach, retrieved his dirk from the body of the leader, and set about cutting the throats of those brigands unlucky enough not to have been killed outright. He noted with not a little surprise that the countess had stepped down behind him and that she watched intently at his shoulder as he slaughtered what remained of her attackers, nodding approvingly as the last man gurgled away his final breath.

"Not that one!" she called out quickly as Vulkan hoist a squealing, portly fellow up by the hair and raised his dirk to administer the coup de grace, "that is Henrik, my footman."

Vulkan let the servant go with obvious reluctance.

"He does not appear to be badly hurt," grunted the prince unsympathetically, "just a small hole in his shoulder and a bang on the skull by the look of him."

The prince slapped the servant on the back and pointed with the tip of his fearsome dirk at the countess' baggage strewn about the meadow.

"Pick up all that stuff and reload the coach," he barked, "and be quick about it, your mistress is anxious to be away from this place."

The servant scuttled off nodding obsequiously, his knees still wobbling as he realised how close the fearsome prince had come to cutting his throat by mistake.

"But Prince Vulkan, where are your men-at-arms?" asked the countess looking around the meadow in confusion.

"I have none Madame, what I did, I had to do single handed."

The countess glanced down again at the corpses of her attackers, raising her hand to her lips in a somewhat coquettish display of amazement.

"Oh my goodness," she breathed, "how very impressive."

Vulkan reclaimed his gear and tied his horse to the back of the coach, before climbing back aboard with the countess who immediately drew down the blinds.

Sensing him watching her she said, "the afternoon sun is so intrusive don't you think?"

*****

As soon as the coach had resumed its slow, undulating way the countess suggested that Vulkan might like to be relieved of the burden of his armour.

"After all," she laughed gaily, "you seem to have slaughtered all of the local desperados, so there's little chance of us being disturbed again, is there?"

The prince readily agreed and sat back as the countess began to undo the many buckles and clasps that held his battle gear in place.

"I used to do this for my father when I was a little girl," she giggled as her nimble fingers dealt easily with the various puzzles.

"What about your husband?" asked Vulkan mischievously.

She met his eyes with equal mischief, "oh! the severe and upstanding seneschal, Count Maximilian of Baxendale, only allows his specially trained squires to touch his precious armour," she intoned, struggling to affect a deep, masculine baritone.

Finally, she pulled off the last piece of plate, the long, ornately tooled cuisse girding his right thigh. Her lovely face froze in disbelief for an instant, the heavy metal slipping from her fingers to clatter on to the floor as she stared at the unmistakable, snake-like bulge of his huge shaft stretching the suede of his breeches. The bulbous head was clearly outlined just above the knee where the constant weeping of his pre-cum had soaked through the soft hide.

"My God!" she breathed, trailing the tip of her index finger along his hardness, "are all the men of Janudor so handsomely endowed?"

Vulcan laughed derisively, "I hardly think so madam."

"Then I can count myself to have been doubly lucky today," the countess smiled somewhat tremulously. Nonetheless, her fingers went unhesitatingly to the fastenings of his padded under doublet.

"I must see you," her voice sounded trapped in her throat as she spoke, "all of you."

When she finally had him naked she sank down between his knees and assumed a position akin to worship in front of the throbbing cock-staff. Her finely chiselled nostrils flared as she breathed in his heavy, cloying redolence. After a full minute of the most intense inspection, the countess looked up into the satyr's slitted eyes, her expression one of complete, all consuming greed.

"My Lord, hear me," she whispered hoarsely, "all of my life I have been addicted to the flesh of strong men. I constantly crave the hardness of their cocks invading me over and over, endlessly violating every part of me, ravishing me," she paused to take a deep breath. Shivering as she continued, "In my mouth, my cunt and… my arse, but never even in my wildest dreams have I beheld such a wondrous monster as this. Use me, My Lord, fuck me, and plunder my deepest recesses. I want to be destroyed upon this noble beast. Spare me no scrap of pain for I crave that dark pleasure too and I swear upon all that I hold dear, that as long as you want me, I will be your truest and most faithful servant."

Slowly she bent her head and planted the softest of kisses upon the bursting purple glans, her small, pink tongue flickering out to lap off the weeping juice that was now beginning to run freely from his slit.

Vulkan groaned in ecstasy as the countess caressed him. His heavy balls squirmed together, bulging with many days' unused seed as she offered up her bosom to him. Willing him to rip the down the heavy satin bodice and liberate her aching breasts.

With an animalistic growl, the naked prince lunged forward, tearing the richly embroidered garments from her back. Buffeting her as she gamely fought to remain upright whilst he pulled her this way and that. She hissed with excitement as he tore away her soft white under things. Spreading her flawless thighs wide for him, her fine hands that had never known a days toil, hooked behind her knees as he pushed his face into her crotch to inhale the heavy musk exuding from her sex. Again, the Prince growled, the sound resonating deep in his belly, as he was able finally to throw the countess across one of the benches and close his avid mouth over her sex. Laving her, swirling his coarse tongue around in the rich effluvium coating the succulent, convoluted tissues.

The satyr slurped lewdly at the fragrant petals of her nether rose, gulping down her freely running juices and the still fresh spunk deposited at the entrance to her womb by the bandit chief. He speared her with his devil-like tongue, penetrating her far more deeply than could any normal lover by dint of the incredible changes the wizard had wrought upon his physiology. The Countess arched her back in abandon, her luscious mouth agape as she felt him invade her deepest recesses, his tongue curling and thrusting against her clitoral root. She shuddered as he plunged her into a racking orgasm that had her shrieking out like a common tavern whore whilst he feasted upon her like starving man.

Hardly had her wildly fluttering tummy ceased its spasms before the satyr was climbing between her thighs to bury himself into her molten sex channel in one titanic thrust. His powerful lunges compressing her belly and forcing the air out of her lungs in a great whoosh of breath. Thereafter, the helpless countess could only loll limply beneath him, her hands clutching claw like at his great biceps as he mauled and pinched her plentiful breasts. Battering at her groins mercilessly for what seemed like an age. Eventually discharging thick gouts of boiling cream into her more times than she could remember, her entire abdomen aching with an all consuming pain so sublime that her own orgasms came like sharp punches into her guts, making her bark out her gratitude in a series of harsh, wracking sobs.

Perched up top on the driver's seat the old footman, Henrik, tried to close his ears to the lycanthropic grunting and shrieking coming from the coach.

At first he had thought that his mistress was once again being raped, such was the commotion, but soon after it had started he had heard the unmistakable sounds of her pleasure and he could only shake his head in wonder at the excesses of the 'quality folk'.

Perhaps he should tell his master, Count Maximilian, once they had arrived safely at the keep he thought. But then, recalling the easy way Prince Vulkan had suspended him by the scalp, brandishing his great dirk in his face, he decided that perhaps he should keep his mouth shut. Miserably, he hunched his wounded shoulder against the coming night airs and silently cursed the prince who had forbidden him to stop driving for any reason whatsoever.

Hours later and sated with fucking for the moment at least, Vulkan decided upon a change of tack. He took up his dirk and cut away some of the decorative ropes that adorned the fancy interior and tied the ends to the grab rails above two of the windows. The free ends he tied around the countess' wrists, drawing her slender arms out and up so that she was suspended across the width of the coach. Just high enough so that she could not settle her rump on to the seat only inches below; forcing her to adopt an uncomfortable half crouch that soon had her legs muscles burning.

Whilst he worked on her bondage, the prince noticed that the countess could barely conceal a smirk of pleasure as he stretched her arms wide. Well, that was all right by him he thought, grinning malevolently into her flushed face, because she would be howling like a banshee before the night was done.

In sudden fury, he smashed his face down onto hers, crushing her lips and ramming his tongue deep into her mouth. Invading the entrance to her throat until she erupted in a fit of uncontrollable retching at which point he slapped his fist back and forth across her cheeks until a thin stream of blood trickled from the corner of her mouth.

"That will teach My Lady to control herself," he growled menacingly, "later on, when I shove the cock-length your crave so much down your pretty crop, you will be in sore need of all your control."

As he spoke he played his fingers through the soft red curls of her pubic bush, smiling thinly as she tentatively hunched her crotch forward in a silent plea for him to go further. Nodding agreeably to her, he allowed his fingers to play around the entrance to her sex, flicking and massaging the congested flesh that still dripped freely with their combined liquors.

Vulkan teased her like that for several minutes, watching the sweat break out again on her brow, plumbing her mouth with his tongue until she was pumping her hips back and forth as hard as she could against his hand. Then, without warning he closed his fist on the luxuriant, flaming growth and ripped the handful of pelt away I one sadistic jerk.

The countess flung back her head and screamed out in one long wail of agony. A wail that almost made the dozing Henrik leap from the coach in fright. A wail that went on and on as Vulkan began to stripe her perfect white flesh with the length of his sword belt. Laying the thick, heavily stitched band of unyielding leather across her breasts, belly and thighs until not a single piece of undamaged flesh remained above her perfectly sculpted knees.

*****

Later that night, the Prince signalled for Henrik to stop and feed the horses. Whilst the footman busied himself with the animals, the prince brought the countess out of the coach where he made her stand naked in the rising moonlight. Humming softly to himself through tightly compressed lips, the prince, once more wearing his breeches and doublet, took down a heavy chest from the luggage rack. This he secured tightly to the countess' shoulders with a length of rope running under her armpits; over her shoulders; criss-crossing between her ample breasts; finished off with four turns cinched very tightly about her narrow waist. Her wrists he secured together and made fast to the rear corner of the coach so that she was tethered ready to run alongside his warhorse.

As he made his preparations, Vulkan was aware of the countess regarding him furtively from the corner of her eyes. Now it seemed the flame haired beauty was not quite so willing to advertise her pleasure at his treatment of her.

Henrik came to the rear of the carriage to return the horses feed bags to the locker. He stopped dead in his tracks at the sight of his mistress, naked and trussed up like a Christmas turkey, her long, red hair, always so immaculately coiffured, now hanging to her waist in a wild, dishevelled cloud.

"God All-Fucking-Mighty!" the footman wheezed in horror. "Your Grace!" looking back and forth between his stark naked mistress and the handsome prince lounging carelessly against the coachwork, the old man could only repeat, "God All-Fucking-Mighty!"

To Vulkan it seemed that far from being embarrassed by her plight, the countess actually straightened her spine against the heavy load she carried and stood proudly before the two men. Her defiant eyes never leaving his as he addressed the gawping footman.

"How much farther to the keep?"

The footman took a moment to fully register the question, "well, er, the keep… well now… let's see… about twenty more leagues, I would hazard… Highness," Henrik eventually stammered, "but surely you don't…"

"But, surely I don't what?" Vulkan prompted.

"Well, My Lord, the countess, I mean, she's not expected to walk through the border territory like that, is she?" the footman's tone was aghast.

"Why not?" snapped the prince.

"Well, Sire, she's, I mean Her Grace that is, is the seneschal's wife and the king's cousin, I mean, well, er, they won't like it… Highness."

"Lets hope they don't get to hear about it then, eh," laughed the prince, or we're both for the bloody chop."

Henrik groaned helplessly as he followed the apparently mad prince up on to the driving platform and with shaking hands disengaged the brake and flicking the reins over the team's back, setting off once more with the countess walking behind.

"Faster," said Vulkan after only a few yards, "at this pace I'll miss the fucking joust.

Once again Henrik protested, but this time under his breath in what he thought to be an inaudible whisper, "Maximilian will cut my friggin' knackers off."

"I'll cut them off here and now for you if you don't get a fucking move on," the prince roared at the cowering servant. Suddenly breaking out into a huge grin as the man began to sob as he again flicked the reins to break the horses into a shambling trot.

Behind the coach, the horses' modest lengthening of stride was sufficient for the countess to have to stretch out her long legs in a fast trot. The iron bound chest bouncing painfully against her shoulder blades as she struggled gamely to keep up. Each time she lagged behind, the rope snatched cruelly at her arms, threatening to dislocate her elbows as it yanked her forward.

Every few yards Henrik turned to look back at his mistress' pale form bounding along in the moonlight. The retainer was terrified that the countess would trip and be dragged along behind, or worse still, trampled under the hooves of the ill-tempered warhorse trotting along beside her. For his part, Prince Vulkan was content to lay back and enjoy the gentle rocking of the carriage and the cool night air sighing gently past.

"You know Henrik," the prince said at length, "if you keep staring back at the countess like that all of the time, she's gonna get the idea that you just like to watch her big tits bounce."

"Please sire," begged the footman miserably, she's bound to be exhausted by now, it's been over a mile."

"True enough," agreed the prince glancing around, "she looks well fucked to me – pull up."

With an exclamation of relief, Henrik hauled back on the reins, yelling and cursing at the top of his voice for the team to stop.

Vulkan jumped down and strode to the back of the coach where he found the countess doubled over, hands resting on her knees, her breath coming in a succession of harsh, racking gasps that made her ribs ache. Nonchalantly, he checked the rope-work, tightening here and there, smirking as he wrang a series of moans from the luckless female where her sweating flesh had been burned raw by the tightly bound fibres.

Vulkan wound his fist into the rich, red mane and yanked her head up to peer into the tortured face. "You're out of shape." he opined bluntly.

The nobleman unhitched his horse and mounted up, walking the powerful steed up to the front of the coach.

"She's alright," he told Henrik, "just needs a little livening up that's all – give me the whip."

Moving like an automaton stuck in a bad dream, the slack jawed footman silently handed over the fearsome horsewhip and then, with a fatalistic shrug of his round shoulders, stirred the team into motion.

Vulkan waited until the coach rolled past and took up station a horses length behind the once more smartly stepping countess. After a hundred yards, or so, fatigue once again began to overcome her cramping thigh muscles and her stride again became erratic.

Vulkan began to play the tip of the long coach whip across the countess' as yet unblemished rump, stinging at the fabulous giggling globes to make her pick up her knees. His mighty cock once again beginning to stir as each excruciating bite of the lash caused the superb creature to yelp and leap forward with renewed, albeit short lived, energy.

From the front came the footman's warning shout.

"Sire, there's a hamlet coming up ahead!"

"Drive straight on through," the prince bawled back.

"But they'll recognise her, she's famous around these parts," came the anguished reply.

"Her own fucking mother wouldn't recognise her looking like this!" screamed back the laughing Vulkan, waving the enormous whip around his head. By which time they were trundling through the sleeping hamlet in a cloud of dust.

As luck would have it, it was chucking out time at the tavern and as the coach rolled past, a group of drunken peasants began to cheer. Applauding the fabulous, pale skinned Goddess prancing after the coach with the crazy nobleman, for what else could he be? Surging along behind her on his great midnight black stallion, stroking her with the whip for all he was worth.

It was a story they would all tell themselves over flagons of ale for generations to come. Until the tale reached truly epic proportions; with a troop of fairy princesses being pursued pell-mell through the sleeping hamlet by a posse of outriders from Hell – on their way to who knows where? To do who knows what?

A mile beyond the hamlet and it was obvious the countess was going no further. Her mouth gulped slackly for air and her eyeballs rolled drunkenly as her head lolled first forward then back. Her faltering gait now hopelessly erratic, her pounding body swaying from side-to-side, as her exhausted muscles began to collapse one-by-one.

Vulkan powered up to the front and pointed off to the side where the brilliant moonlight reflected on the surface of a small lake.

"Pull up over there," he commanded.

As soon as the carriage drew to a halt, the countess collapsed into the dirt, her dust covered body steaming faintly with perspiration in the chill night air. The prince stooped low, slashing carelessly at her bindings with his razor sharp dirk, nicking her skin here and there as he cut away the heavy chest that had so helped to sap her energy.

Next, he stripped off his own garments and picking her up, walked with the unconscious gentlewoman in his arms into the lake and when the icy, black water was up to his middle he plunged her under the surface.

It took only a split second for the unexpected shock to revive the weary countess, who leapt up on to her tip-toes, arms held high: the water cascading out of her hair and off her breasts, her breath coming in whooping spasms as the freezing liquid sucked the heat out of her body.

Vulkan laughed uproariously, plunging her under the surface time and time again as she struggled and spluttered ineffectually against his far superior strength. Eventually he took hold of her hips and threw her with all of his might out into the depths, bellowing with delight as she panicked and floundered about in a great splashing explosion of spume, yelling, "I can't swim! I can't swim! help meeeeurghhhh!…"

Vulkan breast stroked out to her, taking care to remain out of reach of her wildly flailing arms as the demented countess tried to grab hold of him as she went down for the third time.

On the lakeshore, the appalled footman ran back and forth in a blue funk, waiving his hands to no one in particular, finally letting out a great yell and running off toward the neighbouring woods rather than face having to watch the watery death of his mistress.

Vulkan could hardly speak for laughing and for the cold, which was making his teeth chatter uncontrollably.

"Kick out your bloody legs you silly bitch!" he called to her, "follow me, like this," and he sailed close by her so that she could see his action.

"Don't leave meeeeeeeeee!" she screamed, her voice echoing across the water in a shriek that had the fleeing footman picking up his rheumatic knees like a teenager as he ran helter-skelter for the woods.

Eventually, the countess mastered a rudimentary dog paddle and by dint of furious effort managed to follow Vulkan to the shore where he awaited her, lying on a large expanse of smooth sandstone.

For reasons best known to herself the countess did not go back to the relative sanctuary of the coach, but chose instead to lay down beside Vulkan on the smooth stone.

After a while, the prince levered himself up on to his elbow and looked down at her. He had to admit she was a 'cut above' he mused, as he trailed his finger tip over the bridge of her perfect nose, stroking the fine dusting of freckles she normally kept hidden with powder. He could not imagine another woman who would not have been reduced to a snivelling wreck by now.

Her delicate pink nipples had been turned almost blue by the cold and stood up like a pair of rivets from the mass of goose bumps covering every square inch of her flesh. He ran his palm over the plethora of cinnamon coloured stripes the flogging with the sword belt had left across her silken skin. Watching the tiny expressions of pain flit across her face as his fingers re-awaked the flayed nerve ending. He bent low to suck on her nipples, drawing them into his hot mouth, making her moan and arch her back as he worried the oversensitive nubbins with his rough, mobile tongue.

Predictably, his voracious sexual appetite began to rekindle itself and she demurred not one jot when he rolled her over onto her belly and pushed her knees forward so that the soft, wide pillows of her buttocks were exposed to him. Almost lovingly, he parted her whip-stung cheeks to expose the delicate pink bud of her anus. Sweeping his tongue over the hypersensitive tissue, swirling it around and around, penetrating the forbidden ring of pleasure, spearing her until she thrust back at him, uttering shameless grunts of pleasure and eventually, obscene entreaties for him to bugger her with his massive tool.

The satyr prince hardly needed another invitation. He slipped his hand under her damp crotch and raised her hips still further, shuffling forward on his knees he offered up the massive head of his cock to the saliva slicked anus. At the same time, he wrapped his forearm around her waist, pinning her nervous, fluttering belly to him. For even though, on one level she craved the act, on another she feared the brutal pain that would inevitably ensue from the invasion of such a monster and without suitable restraints to hand he knew he would needed to steady her.

The countess closed her eyelids tightly. Pushing her arms forward, she braced her palms against the coarse stone, easing herself backward until she felt the tip of the red-hot bell-end begin to enter her. But the satyr could wait not a second longer for his pleasure and with a great booming cry he thrust his hips forward, impaling her as the massive tool shrugged aside the trifling ring of muscle and filled up her bowels. The countess flung back her head and howled up into the night sky, her blue eyes popping with indescribable agony as he began to saw back and forth.

She had been sodomised on many occasions of course and almost always at her own behest, but never had she thought to accommodate such a monster. Just as she believed the pain could not possibly get any greater, Vulkan's first orgasm burst upon him, making his shaft swell to even larger proportions. His thrusting became deeper and more aggressive so that she was sure that he would butcher her innards and leave her to bleed to death on the hard stone.

But then he was ejaculating into her, in a great, raging torrent that jetted into her with such force that it seemed she could feel his lava flow all the way into her belly. She felt the excess fluids escaping from her to run down the silk of her inner thighs and his motion was suddenly easier within her as the all-enveloping emollient was spread throughout her pulsating guts by his vigorous pumping.

Cautiously at first, the countess began to truly enjoy the fucking of her arse as the pain gradually subsided to be replaced by the familiar pleasure. She rolled her hips upward to their fullest extent, pushing back with her arms, locking her elbows as he thudded into her. Her breathing became harsh and guttural as she grunted at each of his monumental thrusts.

However, there was something else she realised as they rutted hotly together; his copious fluids had ignited a slow, burning deep within her core. A burning that could only to be assuaged by yet another of his incredibly deep thrusts. And so, as the delicious minutes passed, the wanton countess was inexorably drawn down into the concupiscent, addictive miasma fuelled by the satyr's enchanted semen.

*****

An hour before dawn, Vulkan led the exhausted countess back to the carriage. She had already began to succumb to the blood ague; shivering and sweating at one and the same time and would, he knew, shortly be falling into that strange state of violent delirium that Malpurgo had warned him about. Vulkan allowed her to pull a long chemise over her well-used body and discretely prepared the bindings he would need when she entered the worst of the delirium.

Stepping outside again the prince scanned the edge of the woods and easily picked out the short, fat shape of Henrik hiding amongst the bushes. He cupped his hands around his mouth he yelled.

"Get back here now we're leaving!"

When Henrik failed to move Vulkan shouted again, this time injecting a great deal more menace into his tone.

"If you make me come all the way over there to get you I won't like it!"

With obvious reluctance, the footman finally emerged from the bushes and began to trudge disconsolately back to the carriage. The rotund figure looking around him all the while, as if wishing a troop of the king's heavy cavalry might arrive out of nowhere and put an end to his nightmare.

By the time the sun rose the countess had indeed fallen into an agitated, trance-like state, within which, she tossed and turned with remarkable violence against the heavy restraints Vulkan had contrived.

Amusingly, she began to call out all manner of vulgar suggestions and lewd oaths. So much so that the giggling Vulkan had little option but to gag her and confine her in one of the small luggage bins at the rear of the coach. For once, the neurotic Henrik made no complaint, as they were now entering the more heavily populated outer environs of Dashane and were encountering more and more folk along the road. Doubtless, he saw the wisdom of concealing the countess' febrile state from the general populace, not to mention the king's constables.

By morning, they were within sight of the city walls. The countess had finally slipped into the expected coma and so Vulkan was able to arrange her more decently within coach's saloon ready for their arrival at the keep.

From his eerie, the Captain of the Barbican observed the Countess Jessica's coach arriving with only a single, strange knight in attendance and immediately sent for the seneschal. The dour Maximilian duly arrived in short order at the head of half a dozen knights, all of whom appeared eager for some swordplay, by the way they strutted about fingering their sword hilts. Although, all contrived to maintain a respectful distance from the powerful knight in full battle armour mounted atop the snorting, stamping warhorse.

The seneschal looked briefly into the carriage at his apparently sleeping spouse before signalling the grooms to take the coach through to their private apartments.

He sized up Vulkan before calling him politely, if firmly to account.

"What fate has befallen my wife and what has become of the escort I sent for her?" Count Maximilian demanded.

"Your Grace, I happened across your coach at the border two days ago. The escort had already been slaughtered by a band of outlaws and the countess…" here Vulkan paused for delicacy's sake, secretly enjoying the look of pained embarrassment that suddenly clouded the seneschal's surly face as he looked quickly around at the inquisitive faces of the listening knights.

"Dismissed!" the seneschal growled at the curious throng and waited until only Vulkan and the quivering Henrik remained within earshot before nodding for him to continue with his account.

"Although heavily outnumbered, I attacked immediately and managed, by God's Grace, to slay the criminals, including the vile devil who was in the process of ill-using your wife," again Vulkan chortled inside at the seneschal's obvious discomfort, "however," and here Vulkan dropped his voice to a mere whisper, "I fear the uncouth brute had already pressed himself most grievously upon the countess' virtue, Your Grace."

The seneschal considered for a long time, his lips pursing in and out, before turning his attention to the pallid footman.

"And why are you still alive, sirrah?" he ground out between his big square teeth, apparently anxious to find someone to blame for the debacle.

"Sadly, Henrik here was the only other survivor of the attack," Vulkan interceded smoothly, before the petrified footman could blurt out the wrong thing, "and even though pierced with a bodkin through his shoulder and struck on the head by a mace, he continued to bravely defend his mistress until I was able to get to him and dispatch the last of the attackers."

The seneschal stared back and forth between the two, taking Henrik's catatonic expression as confirmation of Vulkan's story. In the absence of any contrary information, he was honour bound to accept the knight's statement. Sensing the seneschal's reluctant acceptance, Vulkan allowed himself some small congratulations. The explanation had been entirely plausible and in any case, very near to the truth. By praising Henrik so highly, Vulkan had effectively bound the footman to the far greater lie, that of his mistress' enravishment by Vulkan himself.

"Well, all will become clear when the countess recovers her wits," the seneschal stated somewhat gracelessly, "in the meanwhile, you would do us all honour by accepting the hospitality of the keep, I expect the King will want to hear all about at the Knight's Court this evening."

*****

A short while later Prince Vulkan was shown to a set of chambers within one of the many towers that housed the innumerable nobles and their households. After so many days on horse back the prince was grateful for the opportunity to bathe in hot water and immediately thereafter fell into the soft bed.

He was awoken in the early evening by a footman who brought a summons to attend the throne room. Vulkan dressed in the fresh garments that had been laid out for him and was relieved to see that the dress tabards fashionable in Dashane fell to just below the knee, so that his unpredictable organ might remain suitably covered.

Vulkan was eventually ushered into the king's presence, where he joined a short line of folk waiting to be called to the foot of the dais. Whilst he waited his turn, Vulkan took the time to survey the gathering of knights who were seated on two long, crescent shaped benches arranged on either side and slightly forward of, the dais upon which Leopold sat in the larger of three grand thrones, the other two, usually occupied by his wife and daughter, Vulkan surmised, were empty. The seneschal, Maximilian, stood beside the king and seemed to be acting in the role of Master of Ceremonies, organising the calling up and dismissal of those who had come to seek the king's favour.

Evidently, the knights were there to offer their advice, either that, or they were the frigging bouncers snorted Vulkan to himself derisively. When he sat on Leo's throne, he promised himself, those benches would be the first pieces of crap to go in the moat.

Vulkan looked around, noting sourly that the were no women present at all! Apparently, the Knight's Court was a male only talking shop – how unutterably fucking tedious he thought – another custom to be ditched. Nonetheless, the prince had to agree that the keep itself and indeed, all of the surrounding land he had glimpsed from his chamber windows were most impressive. The granite keep seemed to rise like a small mountain over an area of at least ten acres; a truly monumental undertaking and obviously the result of many generations of effort and far superior to his father's ramshackle holding.

The prince was jerked out of his reverie by the sound of his name being called and adopting the most scrupulous punctilio, he strode forward and gave Leopold his deepest bow.

The king listened intently, his quick grey eyes drinking in every detail of the man before him as the seneschal whispered in his ear. Explaining a sanitised version of the rescue of the countess no doubt, thought Vulkan although, he doubted very much that Max would tell Leo that his wife had been well shafted by a no account border reaver.

"Prince Vulkan," said the king at last, "I hear that we have much to thank you for. Not least that you have restored the precious Countess Jessica to us, but also that you have slain the cowardly dogs who attacked her party, we are indeed most grateful."

Vulkan bowed deep once more and injected a healthy dose of pomposity into his voice.

"It was no more than my duty and my honour demanded, Majesty."

The king nodded graciously and a fraction of a moment later the bouncers all nodded too.

"Perhaps there is boon I may offer you by way of thanks," the king suggested expansively.

Vulkan considered his reply carefully. At the same time staring across at the glowering seneschal, who, by the increasingly suffused state of his complexion, must have visited his wife and seen the unholy state of her. Clearly, he wanted to move on to the next order of business with all speed. Vulkan decided that he had already been fortunate enough to secure rooms in the seneschal's tower and been granted an audience with the king, all within hours of arriving. Best not to push it he told himself.

"I require no special thanks other than those gracious words Your Majesty has already spoken," he replied.

The king nodded once. The matter was closed.

*****

Later, after carefully exploring the corridors and halls of the vast, rambling keep, Vulkan headed back to his chambers to find a page awaiting him outside his door. The lad brought an urgent summons from the countess and so it was with a spring in his step that Vulkan followed the page up to the seneschal's apartments, but not before collecting some stuff from the small chest Malpurgo had given him.

Presently, he found himself standing beside the anabiotic countess' huge four poster bed, whilst one of her chambermaids raised her mistress' depleted form up into a sitting position, the crone fluffing her pillows and clucking away moistly like an old turkey broiler.

"Leave us," commanded the countess weakly.

"But, My Lady," cried the old woman scandalised, "you! alone with this strange knight, in your private chamber!"

Vulkan resisted the urge to throw the interfering old cow out of the window.

"This strange knight saved my life," replied the countess and then with more authority, "wait outside the door and see that we are not disturbed."

As soon as the door latch fell behind the maid, the countess threw off the counterpane and hauled up her nightdress to expose her sex to him. Vulkan sat down on the edge of the bed and allowed her to unfasten his breeches whilst he dipped his fingers into her steaming hot vulva. Despite her obvious exhaustion, the countess arched her back in a violent spasm as soon as she felt his touch.

"I need you inside me now my prince," she hissed desperately as he forced his fingers up into her tract, feeling the incredibly hot and febrile tissues suck and grip at his digits as he slowly manipulated her, "I want to feel you everywhere, my cunt, my arse, please lover, pump me full of your gorgeous spunk," she purred lasciviously.

"Patience bitch," counselled the satyr, pushing her back into the pillows as she reached for him, "the time is not right, old Max is likely to call in after the meeting finishes and you're also forgetting the hag listening outside the door."

"Oh fuck him! fuck them all!" the countess whined, her tongue sliding wetly around her swollen lips, "I need you."

By now, she had succeeded in liberating his erection, which despite his use of self- hypnosis was as hard as a pikestaff. Vulkan knew that he would have to give her something, or risk her disturbing the entire household. Grinning salaciously at her, he slid toward the bottom of the bed and pulled her after him by her hair, which the maid had just brushed out to its full, fiery length.

She understood his intent immediately and allowed him to pull her over onto her back and drop her neck over the edge of the mattress until he could slide his cock into her mouth and on down into her gullet. Vulkan groaned as she deep throated him with comparative ease after undergoing her metamorphosis. The prince remembered at the last moment not to cry out as she sank her teeth into the base of his shaft in her desperation. Her own moans of pleasure were effectively silenced by the massive column of gristle plugging her oesophagus. Even when he stretched over her to close his mouth over her fluttering vulva and began to pump his rod in and out of her gullet, the only sound she made was a soft, rhythmic snorting through her nostrils as he occasionally cleared windpipe.

The couple stayed locked together like that for several exquisite minutes until they spasmed together. She, as his serpent's tongue raked amongst the pulsating folds of her cunt, and he, as she sucked down the endless streams of spunk flooding from the massive balls squashed against her forehead.

As soon as he could disengage himself from her, he slipped a small pill into her mouth and held his hand over her face until he was sure it had dissolved. The potion had an almost immediate cooling effect upon her ardour and she flopped sulkily bag into the pillows, her blue eyes dark and moody as she watched him neck an identical pill.

"What is happening to me?" she asked at last, "I feel like I'm on fire all of the time and just the thought of you…" she shivered, leaving the thought unfinished.

Vulkan decided to be relatively candid with her, as he had already decided that she could be an invaluable asset in his mission.

"When I fucked you, I infected you with a heat, a disease if you will," he told her, "a sort of nymphomania that can only be assuaged by more of the same."

"Sex with you?"

The satyr nodded as he forced his slowly subsiding phallus back into his breeches.

"What about those pills we just took, they seem to have curiously cooling effect, my whole mouth, my belly feel like ice."

"They will help you to fight the urge to copulate. Later, I will teach you another way of controlling yourself, but for now, there is no time.

He dropped some more of the tiny blue pills into her palm. Take one of these if you begin to inflame," he told her, "try to avoid frigging yourself and men who excite you."

"Why have you come to Leopold's Court," she probed, "and don't tell me you're just here to win our precious little Flamia."

She watched him as he weighed her up; she knew he was trying to gauge how far he really could trust her. She took hold of his hand.

"When I said back there on the road that I would be your truest and most faithful servant, I meant it, I have been waiting my whole life for a man like you to show me the meaning of true pleasure."

Vulkan decided to take a chance, but first.

"You are Leopold's cousin."

Only by marriage," she replied shrugging, "Maximilian carries the blood tie. My father was murdered by Leopold's father when I was a child – I have no love for his house."

"It will be very dangerous," Vulkan told her, testing still further, "Leopold will behead us both if we fail."

Jessica looked at him searchingly.

"It's the throne!" she gasped, sotto voce, "you think you can take the kingdom through marriage to the brat!"

"Aye, that and some carefully staged mayhem." He whispered back.

He peered into her eyes as she considered the import of his words, prepared to dispatch her and the crone outside at the least sign of duplicity – the pageboy he could track down later.

Her decision made, she slipped the counterpane down over her knees once again, and spreading her legs and dipping her fingers into the love juice still dripping from her pouting labial folds. Sensuously, she anointed both his lips with her honey, pushing her fingers into his mouth and rubbing the glutinous yield over his tongue.

"I will be ready when you come for me," she said simply.

*****

Prince Vulkan stood in the centre of the field. Before him the huge figure of Count Branco, the king's champion, settled his battered shield on to his arm and hefted his broadsword ready to begin another attack.

The roar of the crowd seemed come from all around, rolling over the field like thunder as the two knights began to warily circle one another yet again. The champion was the favourite of the crowd, to both vanquish the upstart foreign prince and carry off the beloved Princess Flamia.

However, Vulkan had other ideas. The satyr had come to the summer festival as Malpurgo had instructed and easily fought his way through the lists to this final combat with the never before beaten Branco. However, the Champion was weakening after twenty minutes of punishing combat. His best and most powerful attacks had been easily warded off by the unknown prince and for the first time the knight who had never before tasted defeat, began to face up to the prospect of being beaten at the very moment of his greatest triumph!

Summoning up all of his reserves of strength and courage Branco attacked again, his great sword whirling above his head as he advanced. Vulkan parried and blocked repeatedly as Branco pressed home his attack. The clang and clash of their flashing swords echoed around the field as they fought back and forth with a ferocity that had the crowd on its feet, baying like a pack of wolves for blood.

Finally, Branco was forced by sheer exhaustion to cease his attack. Backing off as he sought to rest his aching sword arm. Instantly, Vulkan leapt forward, his own sword whirling above his head to build momentum as he rained down blow after blow upon his opponent's shield arm, crushing and splitting the battered iron as if it were mere vellum.

Inside his helm, Branco screamed as the remains of the shield were ripped away. The knight twisted sideways so as to present his sword arm to Vulkan who continued to press home his attack. The satyr prince raining down blow after blow on to Branco's upraised blade until the sheer weight of descending metal beat the critically weakened knight down on to his knees.

With a final crushing stroke, Vulkan shattered Branco's blade, sending the glittering shards of steel spinning away into the dirt, leaving the decimated knight defenceless.

Vulkan looked toward the royal grand stand, where all of the assembled nobility of Dashane had risen to stand as one. The onlookers silent and overawed at the devastating show of sword-craft given by the erstwhile-unknown prince. Through the narrow slit of his helm, Vulkan's hungry eyes zeroed in on the three fabulous creatures gathered around the king, Queen Amariza, Princess Flamia and Leopold's sister, Princess Lilliphane.

The prince closed his eyes against the red mist suffusing his vision. The incredible violence of the combat, coupled with the imminent propinquity of Leopold's royal bitches was threatening to overwhelm him. Vulkan had been unable to get to the ever-willing countess or any other female for that matter for several days. The urge to fuck something was beginning to gnaw away at the powerful hypnotic barriers the wizard had placed deep within his psyche.

Remembering Branco at last, Vulkan glared down at the kneeling knight, the urge to vent his frustration by killing the defenceless man was also great, but Vulkan knew that his mission would go easier if he showed the king's champion mercy.

"Do you yield, Lord Branco?" he called out for all to hear.

Branco nodded wearily, his voice croaking with the bitter astringency of defeat as he called back.

"I yield!"

Prince Vulkan strode across the field to stand before the King.

"Sire, as final and undisputed victor in this great tournament, I claim the hand of your daughter, Flamia."

The king looked about at the gathered nobility and reluctantly nodded his assent. Torn between the shock of the comprehensive drubbing of his favourite knight and his publicly proclaimed promise to give his daughter's hand in marriage to the winner of the contest, the king made the only decision his honour allowed.

"So be it." Leopold called out in a firm voice, ignoring the quiet weeping of his daughter, who had long ago fallen in love with the dashing and handsome count, now being quietly ushered away from the field by his squires.

However, the princess' pathetic weeping was not lost upon Vulkan, who grinned broadly at her from behind his visor. He promised himself that the pretty blonde princess would have plenty more to weep about in the days and weeks to come. The thought of her deliciously tight arsehole almost had him storming the grandstand there and then.

*****

Prince Vulkan was experiencing great discomfort, sat as he was at the head banqueting table to celebrate his upcoming nuptials. On his left hand, the slender and heartbreakingly beautiful, if somewhat pale and reserved Flamia. She had been crying all day and even the most assiduous attentions of all her many ladies-in-waiting had been insufficient to conceal the puffiness around her eyes.

Like the consummate gallant he was, Vulkan pretended not to notice.

Beside Flamia, the fragrant yet cool and arrogant Queen Amariza who could easily have passed for her daughter's elder sister, having been only sixteen herself, when Leopold knocked her up. On the other side of Amariza was the King.

On Vulkan's right hand, Princess Lilliphane, somewhat older and far more sexually mature than Flamia. As dark as Flamia and her mother were blonde, but where mother and daughter, were tall and willowy, Lilliphane, like her brother, the king, was shorter and prone to heaviness.

Vulkan shifted uncomfortably in his chair, the heavy bulk of the cock thrust down the left leg of his suede britches ached incessantly at the closeness of the three regal sluts. Especially, at this particular moment in time, the ripe-bodied Lilliphane, who seemed to exude pheromones from every overheated pore, stimulating his heightened senses to fever pitch.

On Lilliphane's right was her husband, Eldred, a thin-faced effete looking man who had drunk far more wine than was wise and who now sat stupefied. Leaving Lilliphane to her own devices, which, as the banquet went on, seemed to consist of flirting with Vulkan. Her green eyes lingering upon his broad shoulders and bulging biceps as she chatted away, occasionally leaning into him and brushing her fingertips against his arm as she accented whatever vacuous point she was making.

For his part, Vulkan could only nod and smile as he silently chanted the spells taught to him by Malpurgo to keep his raging libido in check. He had already decided to fuck Lilliphane later that night, when the royal wanton placed her hot palm on his inner thigh and stroked the length of his cock meat through the soft doeskin.

Vulkan turned his head and faced her. He smiled tightly as she uttered a tiny gasp of surprise when her fingers discovered his extraordinary size. Despite her shock, Lilliphane continued to stroke him under the table, even going so far as to squeeze the bulging glans as she whispered in his ear.

"I sleep in the north tower, on the second floor landing, the door with the rose inlaid into the centre panel."

Vulkan inclined his head almost imperceptively by way of acceptance as the princess continued to discreetly milk his giant sex. Her green eyes becoming moody and smouldering as she watched one of the tiny muscles in his cheek jump in time to her urgent finger manipulations; the fecund princess hopelessly ignorant of her peril as she baited the volcanic sexual appetites of the handsome satyr.

*****

Once safely back in his chambers Vulkan necked one of his little blue pills, then paced the floor waiting impatiently in the darkness for the great castle to quiet down and for the guards to change and begin their first round.

It had been a week of great jubilation throughout the whole kingdom whilst the tournament had run its course. The celebrations culminating in the sumptuous betrothal banquet tonight, where Leopold had formerly announced the forthcoming marriage of his only daughter to Vulkan in seven days time.

Thereafter, everyone seemed to have imbibed far too much wine, including the servants and guards. Whilst he waited, Vulkan allowed his heightened senses to roam beyond his room. Listening to the last of the royal revellers staggering unsteadily off to their chambers and later, the many body-servants making their way back down to their quarters in the lower levels of the labyrinthine keep.

The prince was just about to leave to seek out Lilliphane when he detected the smell of burning coal oil, bourn on a tiny waft of air, apparently coming from within his chambers. It took only a few moments for his sensitive nose to pinpoint the mysterious source as coming from behind a heavy wooden armoire built into an alcove at the back of his sitting room. After a few minutes careful searching, his sensitive fingers found the hidden mechanism that allowed part of the frontage to swing away, revealing an unlit passage beyond.

The prince slipped his heavy dirk down the side of his boot and stepped into the darkness. Once inside the narrow passage he stood for a moment to sniff the stale air. Someone had passed by only a few moments ago, likely bearing a burning torch and that had been the source of the coal oil he had smelt.

In the deep distance, he heard the creak of a stair and immediately set off in a pursuit that took him down toward the lower levels. Someone had placed slow-burning candles at various junctions and these left more than enough light for his sorcerer-enhanced eyes to follow with comparative ease.

Vulkan moved with wraith-like speed down the narrow adit, turning this way and that as he closed rapidly upon his quarry. Without missing a stride, he drew forth his dirk as the rank odour of a male body bloomed in his nostrils, telling him that the target was only yards ahead. Turning at the next junction, Vulkan came rushing up behind a short, rotund barrel of a man whose arms were piled high with a platter of food salvaged from the very banquet Vulkan had quit only an hour before.

In one fluid motion, the prince kicked the man in the back of the leg collapsing him on to one knee. At the same time, he clamped his hand over the greedily chewing mouth, preventing the expected shout of surprise and snapped the head backward to slap the cold blade of the dirk tight up against the taughtly drawn skin of the throat.

Ahead of the grappling pair the diminutive shape of a grull turned to hold up a brightly flaring torch, the docile face with its red, almond shaped eyes stared up at Vulkan uncomprehendingly.

"Who are you?" snapped the prince, slowly releasing his iron grip on the shaking man's lower jaw just enough for the wretch to swallow the food he was choking on before he might speak.

"I am Gargo, the dungeon master," the man finally spluttered.

"What the fuck are you doing creeping around at night in these secret passages?" demanded Vulkan, twisting the dirk into the soft flesh of his throat until a thin trickle of blood began to flow.

"Please lord prince," the man squawked in abject panic, "it's how we live, scavenging food and whatever else we can, its been that way ever since the queen made the king wall up the dungeons and me with them, I swear it!"

Vulkan released his grip on the dungeon master, spinning the stocky little man around to face him, but keeping the tip of his dirk under the nervously bobbing Adam's apple.

"You know who I am?" asked Vulkan.

"Who doesn't know Prince Vulkan? who rescued the seneschal's lady from an army of robbers and blew away the king's champion as if he were a mere squire."

Vulkan ignored the flattering hyperbole.

"How did you come by this grull?"

Gargo made a harrumphing sound, "he was left here by a wizard who came two summers ago to claim Leopold's daughter. They flogged the old goat across the drawbridge and threw this little bugger in the moat. I found him wandering about at night scavenging for food. Now he lives with me in the dungeons."

Vulkan sheathed his dirk, "show me the dungeons."

*****

An hour later, Prince Vulkan, nude, save for a thin cross belt and pouch that held his dirk and a few items furnished by Gargo, slid back the secret door set into the ornate panelling at the rear of Princess Lilliphane's sitting room. The room was in darkness, but thanks to his heightened senses, Vulkan could see clearly in the faint candlelight that spilled under the nearby bedroom door.

The satyr cocked his head for a moment, breaking out into a lewd grin as he recognised the muffled purring of the royal slut pleasuring herself whilst she impatiently awaited his arrival.

Lilliphane lay naked on top of the bed. Her pale thighs spread wide and gleaming in the candles' glow as she stroked her stone hard clitoris. She had been masturbating ever since coming up from the banquet and was now in pursuit of her third orgasm. Her heavily bejewelled fingers and soft, brown thatch were soaked with her cum. Her mind filled with thoughts of the young Prince Vulkan mounting her with his huge phallus.

God! How she wanted him, she thought, dipping her fingers deep into the viscous softness of her vulva and spreading more of the plenteous love juices out onto her plump belly with her palm.

At thirty-five, Lilliphane had a well honed appetite for sex, having already had three husbands, including the present perverted Eldred, who seemed only able to achieve orgasm when ramming himself into her back passage.

Her first husband had been a boisterous, yet innocent young knight, who had fucked her energetically every single night for the nine months of their short marriage. Their union cut short when he had fallen from his horse, drunk and broken his neck.

Lilliphane's second husband had been a saturnine duke in late middle age who had introduced her to all things sexual during the long winter nights spent in his isolated northern keep. She still had vivid memories of her wedding night, when he had turned her over and proceeded to bugger her with a brutality that had her biting the pillow as he ruptured her never before used rectum. By the end of that first week, it had been Lilliphane who had willingly pushed up her lush young buttocks for him, her loins boiling and eager for another delicious butt fucking. The duke had died on top of her as he had lived, sodomising her whilst she fellated his younger brother.

To Lilliphane it seemed as if Vulkan simply appeared out of the darkness surrounding the high four-poster. With a groan of relief she reared up from the sweat dampened sheets, both hands reaching out to cup the prince's hugely dependent testicles. She rolled the heavy eggs together, giggling as she felt them squirm and roll within their warm sack. With reluctance she released his balls, but only to run her hands up the marble hard shaft, her giggles turning to gasps of wonder as she measured the huge length with her small hands, her fists stacking one above the other six times before arriving at the bulbous glans.

For a few brief seconds, Vulkan was content to simply stand beside the bed, his head thrown back, days of pent up sexual tension threatening to explode out of his tight belly in one uncontrolled eruption as the greedy slut fondled and cooed over his aching sex. Vulkan released a deep groan of satisfaction as Lilliphane dipped her head and struggled to take the dripping cock-head into her mouth. Her small jaws cracked softly as she strained to open her mouth to its fullest extent in order to accommodate the frightening diameter.

The Prince gazed down at Lilliphane's gently bobbing crown. The sensations building within the bulging organ as she sucked him were exquisite, but hardly enough to satisfy his hugely caged hunger.

The satyr relinquished the last vestiges of his mind's control and was instantly gratified with a searing climax that seemed to come from his toes. A huge, scalding bolus of spunk rushed up the contracting shaft to splatter into Lilliphane's voracious mouth.

The princess gamely tried to gulp down the humongous load in its entirety, but could hardly swallow fast enough. The oversexed bitch moaned with delight as the hot overflow ran down on to her chest. She allowed the glans to pop out of her mouth, leaning back to give him the best view of her large, bowl-shaped breasts as she began to massage his cum into the soft flesh. Concentrating on her ochre pigmented nipples, purring as she lubricated the wide aureoles, paying particular attention to the sensitive central stalks with yet more cum wiped from her chin.

With calculated gentleness, Vulkan ran his long, powerful fingers through Lilliphane's thick, dark tresses, taking careful purchase on her scalp. Slowly at first and then with growing insistence the satyr drew the cooing lips back toward his waiting member, which due to his satyriasis had lost none of its vigour. He stepped back from the bed as the unsuspecting woman extended her neck to follow him, a disapproving moan coming from her throat as she signalled that she should stand still.

The princess was a spoilt and selfish woman who, in recent years had gotten use to the men she seduced doing things her way. She had drunk far too much wine and was becoming sleepy after her previous orgasms. She decided that she would instruct the prince to fuck her quickly, until she came one last time and then he would have to go – until the next time.

Lilliphane giggled when she thought about Flamia's forthcoming wedding night. She really out to forewarn the poor girl, but how could she? She could hardly confess to first hand knowledge of young Vulkan's incredible member. Ah well, Flamia would find out in due course. Perhaps she should suggest to Amariza that she give her daughter a large pot of goose grease as one of her wedding gifts.

And then, just when her throat was fully extended Vulkan slid his mighty phallus all the way down her gullet in one fluid movement, simultaneously snapping her head forward so that her regal nose was crushed up against his unyielding sheet of belly muscle.

The move had been so swiftly executed that it took the startled princess a moment to realise what had happened to her. One second she was slurping at the succulent cock-head and the next, the bloated column was surging down her throat, forcing apart her oesophageal tract until she thought her throat would burst.

Lilliphane gagged in panic against the sudden blockage of her airway, raking her long, carefully enamelled nails ineffectually across the taught skin of Vulkan's rock hard buttocks. She struggled as hard as she could to withdraw her face from the suffocating groin, but the prince simply wound his fingers more tightly into her scalp. His face split into a crazed grin as he gazed down at the slut flopping about helplessly on the full length of his aching meat.

Vulkan held her like that for a full minute, enjoying the sound of her strangled, frightened whinnies and the feel of her gullet contracting spasmodically around his super-sensitive shaft. Soon her struggles began to wane and she sagged down onto the rumpled bed sheet, her diaphragm heaving erratically, until her hands fell away from his hips and finally, she slipped into narcoleptic oblivion.

Quickly, the Prince retrieved his pouch and lashed Lilliphane's wrists and ankles together and fitted a gag, complete with tongue depressor, before heaving her up on to his shoulder and padding back to the panel trap and the tunnels beyond.

Vulkan slipped between the walls and floors of the keep until he came to the place that allowed him to look into Countess Jessica's bedchamber. He set Lilliphane down in the dark and put his eye to the peephole.

The countess was not alone, she had one on the young footmen with her whom he had seen earlier serving at the banquet. Silently, Vulkan slid aside the panel and stepped into the room. The countess was on her back in the centre of the bed with the footman gathered between her smooth thighs, her ankles locked about his waist as he lunged energetically into her.

She saw Vulkan as soon as he stepped through the trap and grinned lasciviously at him over her young lover's shoulder. At the same time she pushed her middle finger into the youth's anus making him rear up gasping as she gently pulsed her long, sharp-nailed digit in and out – gently reaming him. Then, as Vulkan approached, she pulled his boyish face down on to her breast and slipped her sweet nipple into his mouth to further distract him. Her smile splitting her face from ear-to-ear as the prince leant over the bottom of the bed, flipping his heavy dirk over in his palm, extending his arm to hold the bronze pommel poised above the footman's unsuspecting head.

The countess began to chant into the youth's ear, her glistening wet tongue coiling inside the sensitive whorls of cartilage as all the while she stared into Vulkan's glittering eyes, whilst the quaking satyr waited for the youth to shoot his load.

"Oh God! yes, that's good, I can feel you in me, right up to my womb, yes, yes, come on baby, harder, fuck me harder, I want your thick spunk inside me nowwwwwww!" and then she was coming. Her wide mouth falling open to show the way down into her throat, her eyes still fixed on Vulkan's hovering only inches above hers.

The youth could contain himself no longer at the sound of her cultured voice talking such filth. He reared up on his arms, his buttocks clenching tightly as he fired himself into the fabulous aristocratic creature, who had lured him to her chambers with promises his lowly kind could only dream about. However, just at the moment of his ultimate pleasure Vulkan rapped him sharply behind the ear and sent him off into instant oblivion.

With a negligent sweep of his great arm, the satyr hurled the unconscious youth off the bed and dived between the countess' still shaking thighs. The pleasure she had got from fucking in front of the prince had been double, treble, quadruple what she had been experiencing before he had appeared. But now, as Vulkan gobbled at her sex like a starving man, his tongue writhing higher within her sex chasm than she could have believed possible, a second towering orgasm smashed through her loins. She howled out loud and long as he lifted her buttocks high into the air and ground her crushed vulva against his face, sucking out the delicious milt that abounded there.

Once he had finished feeding from her he gave her little time to recover and no time at all to dress.

"Its time!" he said and stepped back into the void and without a moment's hesitation she followed him in.

If the countess was surprised to find Princess Lilliphane being carried, naked, bound and gagged down into the bowels of the castle, she showed no reaction. Concentrating instead on following the prince's rapidly disappearing form down through the many twists, turns, and deadlocks until they emerged into the main dungeon hall.

The Countess stared around herself somewhat uncertainly, taking in the weird array of machines, each one more strange and frightening than the last.

Vulcan deposited Lilliphane over a whipping horse and rattled his dirk against an iron triangle hanging from the ceiling.

Despite her nudity, the countess noticed an all-pervading warmth making her skin prickle with perspiration. She remarked upon it to Vulkan, who pointed upward.

"The main kitchens are directly above," he explained, "the fires burn day and all night and the heat travels down here through the stone buttresses supporting the roof.

Gargo, the dungeon master, shambled up the steps from the cells in response to Vulkan's alarm. His hirsute, endomorphic body covered only by an ancient leather apron and sandals. Behind him came the little grull hopping up the steps on its bandy legs. The countess pointed a long, shaking finger at the little gargoyle.

"What the Hell is that?" she choked incredulously, skipping nimbly behind Vulkan's protective bulk.

"More to the point, who the hell was that?" contradicted the prince darkly, before turning to Gargo.

"Bring the countess her harness and then attend to the princess, she's no doubt impatient to know why we've brought her here."

Five minutes later the countess found herself strapped into a tight fitting body harness of well oiled black leather, consisting of a girdle encasing her shapely hips with generous cutaways to allow easy access to her sex and rectum. Cross over straps separated her breasts over which were fitted iron rings that encouraged the milk white orbs with their crimson nipples to thrust out in two cones. The outfit buckled to a broad neck choker, also leather and was completed by a pair of black thigh length leather boots fashioned from supple deer hide.

"Where did you get these things?" She asked Gargo, trying to ignore the fierce erection making a tent of his apron as he finished adjusting her straps.

"Stuff's been here all the time My Lady." Gargo replied, staring slack mouthed at her mouth watering nipples, "there's chests full of all manner of gear down in the sub levels from years gone by. Before the queen came to Dashane and made the king close up the dungeons this place was buzzing." The dungeon master's scathing tone showed what he thought of the queen. But when he looked around the various pieces of well-oiled equipment, his chest seemed to swell with pride as he warmed to his subject.

"The king's grandfather, old 'Iron' Magnus – now there was a hard bastard! – built up the finest range of torture equipment on the continent. Had stuff brought from all over, even by sea from as far away as Lupe." Gargo waived his arms at various machines most of which the countess could not even begin to fathom.

"All strong monarchs have use for a well stocked dungeon, My Lady." He told her nipples knowingly, so I've kept it all in good order, every bit of it, waiting for the time when it'd be needed, see."

"Well it's certainly needed now," snapped Vulkan ominously, as he bounded up from the sub levels with an arm full of equipment, "and so are your extremely valuable services dungeon master, starting by you getting Princess Lilly installed into that tit press over there."

The countess settled herself back to watch as Gorgo and his hideous grull lifted the terrified princess from the horse and over to the tall frame Vulkan had indicated. With a skill born of long experience the hugely enthusiastic dungeon master offered Lilliphane's voluptuous body up to the equipment, pursing his lips as he made a few quick calculations as to her height and breast size.

"Hold her, Tommy," he called out to the grull. The little creature obediently moved in to support the shaking princess, his abnormally long and powerful arms reaching up to grasp her shoulder blades, his sloping forehead jammed into the crease of her soft buttocks as he thrust her against the solid wood. Through her gag the drooling woman screeched in horrified protest as Gargo adjusted the mechanism; grasping her large, pale udders in his calloused hands and pulling them through the yoke before winding down the worm gear to compress the globes into two rapidly congesting torpedoes of pain.

Next, he untied her wrists and inserted them into the waiting clamps set into the sides of the frame. Her feet he left tied together so that she stood on tiptoe, her calves and thighs already beginning to quiver and burn as she struggled to hold her weight off the bloated breast meat. The painfully squashed tissue was already beginning to turn an angry shade of puce in front of her terror stricken eyes – the large, ochre nipples aching and turgid with the press of blood.

Gargo handed Vulkan and the countess a pair of evil looking scourges from a well stocked rack on a nearby wall and retired with Tommy to a safe distance.

Vulkan stood in front of the princess, slashing the multiple leather tails of the scourge through the air in a series of swingeing arcs.

Lilliphane's rolling eyes followed his arm as it flashed through the air, her strangled whimpers coming in a constant, ragged stream from beneath the tongue depressor as she beheld the terrible man standing before her. Her belly flipped in dread as she took in his hugely bunched muscles rippling beneath the heavy strap harness and flipped again as her eyes were drawn inexorably down to the monstrous cock thrusting up from the bronze ring and latticework basket that constrained his massive gonads.

"Are you wondering why I've brought you down here?" The satyr asked cruelly, breaking out into a smile as her dark head nodded over the top of the press.

"You're here to experience the punishment dictated by my master, the great sorcerer Malpurgo, in respect of the grievous wrong you and your kinsmen did him," he informed her, "do you recall your part in that wrong?" He waited until the head nodded again, a trifle uncertainly, this time trying to articulate some form of pathetic mitigation around the dreadful tongue depressor.

"Good, then prepare to repent at leisure!" He roared and brought the scourge down over the top her left breast with a mighty thrash.

Even with her tongue clamped, Lilliphane was able to put a great deal of effort into her scream as the massively congested flesh bore the full brunt of the blow. Vulkan paused to watch the taught cone vibrate like a well-struck bell. He raised his arm again and Lilliphane began to scream even before he started the downward arc. Vulkan gave her four dozen lashes before she ran out of breath and passed out.

The countess watched in eerie fascination as Gargo slouched over and made a cursory examination, peeling up the princess' eyelid to look into her pupil and feeling for her carotid pulse. Curiously, he also slipped his hand between her thighs to feel inside her groin, sniffing his fingers as he walked over to a trough and filled a bucket with brackish water that he then hurled over the princess' glowing torso.

Lilliphane was slow to revive, but was soon rolling her eyes in obvious terror again as Vulkan advanced once more. This time the satyr paid particular attention to her well upholstered belly. Slashing across it from left to right and then right to left for another hard, four dozen. He stopped only when the entire mass of quivering tissue was scarlet and streaked with surface blood.

The countess was becoming increasingly aroused, her vagina beginning to itch luridly as she watched Vulkan work on the princess, whom she had never been particularly fond of due to the latter's many petulant ways and spiteful moods. She soon found herself going forward with her own scourge to stand behind the shaking Lilliphane, whose back was now bathed in sweat from head to foot.

As Vulkan began to lay the scourge across the princess' thighs, the countess started to thrash away at the wide, jiggling bottom. So that now the wretched creature was getting it from both sides, her plush body rocking with the force of the complimentary impacts.

Eventually, the countess' arm was drooping with exhaustion, the slender muscles aching with the unaccustomed activity. She went to stand behind Vulkan, her sex lips literally dripping with love juice as she stared at his rippling musculature. Her mouth watered as she watched the ribbons of sweat running down into is buttock cleft, licking her lips like a kitten as she imagined him lashing her with such vigour.

Once he was done with the front of Lilliphane's thighs, the prince sluiced off the bloody mix of sweat and epidermis coating the tails of the scourge in the water trough before finishing off by firing the soaking leather directly into the princess' pudendum. The water sodden mass impacted in a shattering series of splats that had the fecund princess' ruined belly meat pumping in and out like a blacksmith's bellows.

Gorgo made another quick physical examination and once again wriggled his hand into Lilliphane's crotch, this time holding his fat fingers up to the torchlight.

"Not too enamoured of the lash," he tutted to Vulkan and then noting the countess' confused expression explained, "some women liquor-up nice and juicy under the whip, but not this one – too soft by half, not like her snotty sister-in-law, the queen, he sneered, I bet she'd really cream after a good flogging – the haughty ones always do."

Gargo pinched at Lilliphane's massive nipples, yanking cruelly on the tumescent stalks, but the brunette simply gazed slackly back at him. Her massive globes were now purple with congestion, the veins coursing through the abraded tissue, deep blue-green amongst the vivid, scarlet welts.

Gargo harrumphed to attract Vulkan's attention but the satyr was busily engaged bending the beaming countess back over the nearby racking table as he prepared to mount her.

"Best release the yoke a bit, unless you want her tits to rot off, sire," the gaoler advised.

"Do as you wish," Vulkan snapped over his shoulder, " and give her a good shafting while you're at it."

Gargo could hardly believe his ears. He whistled a merry little jig tunelessly through his splayed teeth as he unwound the worm gear to release the pressure on Lilliphane's great tits. Winking at the horrified brunette as he manhandled her bloated flesh to help get the circulation flowing again.

"Been dreaming about shagging you for years," he sniggered at her gleefully, "standing in the secret tunnels, watching you take it up the back pipe from that tosser of a husband of yours and humping all those other girls' men folk. I seen it all through the peepholes."

Lilliphane groaned deep down in her throat, rolling her head in disbelief against the wooden framework.

The circulation was beginning to force its way back into her breast meat and the pain soon became blinding as the blood rushed in to banish the overall, aching numbness. She raged impotently as the gaoler dropped the height of the press with a crash, making her incandescent tits bounce as he lowered her position. He untied her ankles and kicked her feet apart, re-tying them to the bottom corners of the frame so that now her rump was pushed outward as she was forced to fold at the waist to accommodate the reduced standing height.

The princess shook her head in mute protest as she felt the grotesquely ugly gaoler's insistent fingers pry apart her sex lips from behind. The thick, rank smell of him smarted in her sinuses as she began to hyperventilate in her panic. She felt him lay his leather apron on top of her upturned hips as he positioned himself and then he was forcing his way in. His big hands encircled her waist, dragging her hips inexorably back on to him. The thick, ridged prick like an iron spike as he pushed through the well used labia, still somewhat gungy from her hours of masturbation.

Gorgo groaned his thick lips curled back form his big yellow teeth as he realised the dream of a lifetime. He leant back from the pelvis, placing all of the strain of his body weight on her wrists as he commenced to slam in and out with all of his might. He revelled in the internal warmth of her as he pistoned in and out of her expensive flesh, still unable to believe that he was actually fucking the king's baby sister – even if she was the palace whore.

Princess Lilliphane' tortured mind was reeling after more than an hour of flogging in the hellish dungeon and she felt herself in very real danger of plunging into deep, psychic shock.

The whole demonic episode just seemed to be going from bad to worse. Her life was being turned upside down and inside out. Only a few hours ago she had been sitting at the king's table celebrating at the most sumptuous banquet of the whole year. Nobles, squires, pages and footmen: all eagerly attentive to her every whim. Each vying to ensure that she was always entertained, her plate always full of the choicest delicacies and her goblet always brimming with the finest wine. Nothing was too good for the king's sister.

She had revelled in her licentious conduct at table with the young prince as she discreetly fondled him. Later, spending a delicious hour in her bedchamber in anticipation of his remarkable phallus and then he had come to her. His splendid cock had been all that she could have wished and his spunk, so thick and steaming with heat, just the way she had imagined it.

Then the unthinkable horror as he so casually raped her gullet. She had thought her last moments were upon her as her vision blacked out and she faded away with the blood pounding like all of Hell's hammers in her temples.

Then the whips! Lilliphane could not even begin to conceive how she had made it through the blistering pain, as the savage prince had excoriated the most delicate parts of her body. Even now, her skin seemed to sear and burn at every slight movement and it hurt to breathe.

And now, the foulest creature inhabiting the bowels of the keep, a rancid, ugly troglodyte of a man, was visiting the final ignominy upon her. A character so hideous, that he had been walled up in the dungeons years ago – along with all his mechanical horrors. Lilliphane shivered with revulsion as he was filled her up with his vile organ, huffing and puffing behind her as he sated himself. Groaning and shaking her hips as his shaft swelled and splashed his thick, hot jism into her.

Whilst Lilliphane was forced to endure the gaoler's seemingly endless orgasm, she was treated to the sight of the prince shooting his load into the treacherous countess as they writhed together on the racking table before her very nose.

The beautiful, flame haired Jessica, whom Lilliphane had always secretly envied for her boundless grace and vivacity, was wrapped around the satyr like a second skin. Her arms and legs encircled his massive trunk as he pounded her svelte body; her fingers crooked like talons, the gleaming red nails buried in his flesh, her feet locked around his back, the trim ankles crossed to imprison him.

Despite herself, Lilliphane felt a brief, unwelcome frisson of voyeuristic pleasure ripple through her vagina as the two sweating copulants flexed and panted before her. Between the satyr's spread thighs, the princess could see his organ plunging in and out of Jessica's fiery, red beaver, the blushing labia, swollen, fat and glistening, being stretched beyond belief by the inhuman tool. The countess' nether mouth leaking around the sides of the shaft as he bottomed himself in her, forcing out the cloying seed in thick, silver ribbons than ran slowly down to fill her anal cleft, the excess forming a large, spreading pool on the scarred oak beneath her.

*****

The prince and the countess entered his chambers through the secret adit and dived straight into bed, where they remained, fornicating ardently until dawn. Only then did the exhausted Lady Jessica return to her own chambers; by which time the unfortunate footman had dragged himself off to his quarters, much puzzled and more than a trifle head-sore.

The prince lay in bed until early afternoon, well after the time that Lilliphane's mysterious disappearance should have been discovered. He enjoyed a leisurely bath and dressed in fresh linen before setting off in search of his bride-to-be, whom he found playing croquet with the queen and various ladies-in-waiting in the palace gardens.

Princess Flamia greeted her prospective husband somewhat coolly, but nonetheless allowed Vulkan to kiss her cheek as befitted his newly won status. As he bent close to brush his lips against her peerless young skin, Vulkan's senses were assaulted a rich, organic aroma that made the delicate membranes of his nose tingle and his mouth water – Flamia was menstruating!

The prince quickly considered and discounted a number of ploys to separate the princess from the group, so that he might strip her naked and feed upon the delicious essence flooding her sex. However, the situation was too exposed and so Vulkan was forced to fall back on the protection of autohypnosis to calm his suddenly buzzing appetite.

But being in such close proximity to so many gorgeous women soon took its inevitable toll and Vulkan began to find his eyes being drawn more and more down into the low cut bodices and over the thrusting rumps of the women as they stooped to swing their long handled mallets.

The Queen in particular, had a wonderfully soft, creamy looking cleavage that jiggled invitingly as she swung her shoulders with each stroke.

Once again, Vulkan was thankful for the knee length tabard he wore as his prick swelled and bulged within the murderously tight confines of his breeches.

In an effort to 'break the ice' between her stubbornly unwilling daughter and the saturnine, yet strangely magnetic prince, the queen dismissed Flamia's partner from the grass court and insisted that Vulkan pair with the princess to play out the rest of the match. And so it was that Vulkan spent a pleasant, but ultimately dissatisfying hour knocking the little, coloured wooden balls through the small metal hoops, whilst the queen did her exasperated best to fill the silences with all manner of innocuous small talk.

Fortunately, for Vulkan's slipping self-control, the game was ended prematurely by the approach of the seneschal who had come to report the apparent disappearance of Princess Lilliphane.

*****

A hasty meeting of all available knights had been called by the king and a thorough, yet discreet search of the castle's many towers organised. For the sake of appearances, Vulkan volunteered to head up one of the search parties and soon found himself traipsing up and down the many flights of steps in one of the far most towers; a structure which seemed to be given over mostly to the storage of unwanted furniture and ancient artefacts.

In a small, flag draped hall at the base of the tower, Vulkan came upon a display of captured armour and weapons. He stopped in front of an imposing, if somewhat barbaric battle harness, running his fingers over the many stylised scales and plates.

"That suit was taken from the body of the foul Kragnar himself, war chief of the nomad raiders against whom the king led a great pogrom two summers ago," one of the accompanying squires proudly informed him, "note the primitive handiwork and the curious runes worked into the tooling – typical only to the raiders of the northern mountains."

Vulkan uttered a suitably impressed acknowledgement and as everyone moved away, he adroitly slipped a short bladed dagger from its cleverly concealed sheath beneath the armoured scales, that his sharp eyes had noticed as he had examined the piece.

Inevitably, the search of the keep yielded no sign of the princess, who was, at that very moment, lying belly down along the length of the flogging horse. Gargo had dragged her knees forward so as to expose her crotch and using strong ropes, firmly secured her wrists and ankles to iron rings set into the feet at each corner.

The gaoler assembled a few pieces of equipment on the floor behind her before going to look into her anguished face.

"Now then bitch," he announced nastily, "I'm going to clean you up a bit, ready for when Prince Vulkan gets back, not that I mind a bit of shit on the end of my cock mind you, but the prince now… well, he's a proper gentleman, so we're gonna flush you out with this." He dangled a length of tightly stitched leather tubing back-and-forth in front of Lilliphane's eyes,

Lilliphane gurgled wretchedly around the tongue clip, rolling her big green eyes and shaking her head in panic as Gargo bent to adjust the length of the horse's front legs. The princess vainly tried to pull herself free as the stocky gaoler adjusted the pegs to drop the front legs by six inches so that she found herself canted forward, her backside now above the level of her head. The gaoler disappeared behind her and planted a clutch of massive slaps on the fulsome buttock cheeks, cackling with delight as the princess reared up caterwauling at the unexpected pain.

Gargo selected a nine-inch length of curved, hollowed out antelope horn and screwed it narrow end first into Lilliphane's anus, only stopping when the horn was three quarters of the way in. As he worked, the princess let out another protesting gurgle, earning her a further round of ferocious slaps from the grinning torturer.

Next Gargo pushed one end of the tubing down through the centre of the horn and forced the other end over a small spigot in the bottom of a bucket, which placed on a stool beside him.

Lilliphane began to whimper in fear as she spied the bandy legged Tommy come up the steps from the sub-levels with a giant steaming kettle clutched in his knotty hands.

"Ah ha," shouted Gargo, "just in time Tommy – the princess was getting impatient for her toilet."

The gaoler took the kettle from the grull and poured the steaming contents into the bucket, adding a big dollop of foul smelling pepper oil from an old, chipped flagon and stirred the mixture around with a stick. Next, he lifted the bucket and hung it on a hook above the shaking woman's upturned arse.

The gaoler rummaged under his leather apron with his hand, pumping his rapidly hardening cock as he reached up and opened the spigot a crack. The hot infusion trickled slowly down into Lilliphane's open bowel, beginning to sear the tender tissues as the loosening mixture bubbled and roiled inside her.

The pain was indescribable and far worse even that the tit flogging Lilliphane had previously had to endure. With her tongue securely clamped, all she could do was vent her pain in a kind of hissing gargle as the sides of her belly pumped in and out in response to the monstrous agony.

Gargo stood transfixed as the woman's body flexed and shivered, her pelvis seeming to hump the flogging horse as if she were atop one of her many lovers. Her head came slowly back in an agonised arch, the taught, curving column of her neck flushed scarlet with strain as she gasped around the gag.

The gaoler shuffled up to her face, flipping the foul smelling apron over her head as he pumped his fist up and down his rock hard shaft until he ejaculated into her face in a great, heaving splash of hot seed. Lilliphane was powerless to prevent some of the stinking dollops from shooting into her mouth and could only lie there as the thick yield dripped from her bottom lip.

When he adjudged the right amount of liquid had found its way into her guts, Gargo yanked out the tube and stuffed a fat old cork into the end of the horn so that she was fully watertight. Then he untied her and dragged her down from the horse, slapping and cuffing her until she rested on her hands and knees. He plonked the bandy legged grull down on her back and had the unspeakable horror ride her around and around the dungeon chamber, the vile creature beating her sweating haunches with a switch whenever she seemed to be slowing down.

After half an hour of this unspeakable torture her knees and the tops of her feet had been scraped raw by the abrasive granite flags and the small of her back ached intolerably from the weight of the solid little gargoyle.

Lilliphane sighed with relief when Gargo called a halt and pushed a bucket under her arse – telling her to sit. The princess closed her eyes in shame as he reached down between her thighs, his thick fingers forcing apart her buttocks as he felt for the bung.

"Let's hope all that galloping about got most of last night's banquet," giggled Gargo unpleasantly, "or else its back on the horse and another hot infusion for Your Highness."

The cork came out with a 'pop' and to Lilliphane it felt as if the whole of her guts fell out into the bucket. Her breath caught in her throat as the foul smelling miasma rose up to envelope her. Desperately she fought to keep her gorge down for fear of choking on the vomitus, her mouth already partially blocked by the bulky tongue clamp.

Lilliphane gave a huge sob of relief when the hateful gaoler professed himself satisfied with the results of the enema. She even held herself still while he wrenched out the horn and replaced it with a fat wooden plug, before spread-eagling her against the wall and binding her to heavy black iron rings cemented into the ancient stone.

As she stood there, finally able to find some modicum of rest, she began to feel increasingly faint and feverish as the venereal ichors contained in the satyr's semen she had swallowed hours before began to do its dreadful work.

*****

Prince Vulkan stood in the inky blackness of the void where it passed by Queen Amariza's sprawling apartments, his eye to the peephole as he watched the chambermaids undress their precious charge. Vulkan was once again naked save for his harness and his huge prick quickly grew to stand straight up against his belly muscle as he ogled Amariza's delightfully pear shaped arse and the long, pale sweep of her back and as she raised her hands above her head to let fall the long night gown.

Vulkan grinned cynically as he listened to Amariza confiding her anguish over the disappearance of her sister-in-law to her maids – she would be reunited with the royal whore soon enough, he promised her silently. The satyr waited impatiently until the departing maids had doused the candles and Amariza had been in bed a few minutes. His cock quivered with delicious anticipation as he carefully pushed open the tall bookcase trap and entered the bedchamber.

On softly padding feet, he moved to the door and turned the key in the lock with a metallic 'snick'. Then he took a big stride and leapt on to the bed, landing on top of Amariza and driving the wind out of her body as his better than eighteen stones in weight hit her solidly.

Laughing insanely to himself, he ripped down the covers and slipped his hand between Amariza silky smooth thighs as she lay gasping. He gathered the whole of her soft haired pubic mound in his palm, massaging the soft, hot pad of flesh before thrusting his middle finger deeper to seek out the incredibly tight bud of her anus, testing the resilient, virgin sphincter with short, sharp jabs that had the winded queen twitching mutely at the unaccustomed invasion.

His curiosity satisfied, Vulkan gathered her up in the coverlet, rolling her over and over until she fell off the edge of the bed with a crash. Quickly now, because speed was of the essence he wound the lashings he had brought with him around her swaddled form until she was completely immobilised.

Suddenly, there was an urgent knocking at the door accompanied by the anxious tones of one of the maids calling through the thick timbers. Vulkan threw open the picture windows and tied the rope he had brought to a pillar and carefully lowered it over the balustrade. Like a shadow, he rappelled down to the next balcony where he dropped on top of the unsuspecting guard stationed there.

The trooper was instantly poleaxed by Vulkan's huge weight hitting him. The prince took the nomad dagger he had filched from the trophy hall and slipped it between the unconscious guard's fourth and fifth ribs, directly into his heart. He tied a second rope to the balustrade in the same fashion and flung it over the edge where it dangled to the tops of the rhododendrons below.

Then he pulled himself back up the rope and stepped back into the queen's bedroom just as the first mighty impact of a battleaxe slammed into the door. On the floor, Amariza had regained her wind and was now screaming at the top of her voice for the guards, her shouts sounding muffled and breathless through the thickly padded rolls of counterpoint.

Vulkan picked up the hugely struggling bundle. Behind him, the heavy door vibrated under multiple impacts, the wood around the lock flying in all directions as the men on the other side gave it everything they had. The old iron lock finally gave way with a massive 'crack' and the door flew inwards, quickly followed by the soldiers, their axes raised above their heads, but the room was empty.

*****

The king stood with the seneschal on the lower balcony, at their feet, the still cooling body of the guard whom Vulkan had dispatched only ten short minutes beforehand.

The king turned the small dagger over in his fingers. His tone was final, marking the end of the brief discussion, "it's definitely nomad workmanship, I recognise the design, and here, these runes on the top of the hilt."

The seneschal nodded despondently, he had recognised the workmanship as soon as he had pulled the blade out of the body.

"They must have come over the outer wall at some point; through the gardens to just below this balcony, scaled the masonry up to here and killed the guard," the seneschal craned his neck to look up the twenty or so feet to the queen's private balcony, "quite a climb, even for a mountain man."

"But why the ropes?" asked the king.

"Majesty, it's one thing for a man to scale a sheer wall, even one as eroded as this, but a damn sight harder to come back down with a hundred pound woman over his shoulder."

"How many in the raiding party do you figure?" asked the king, looking up at the sheer wall dubiously.

The seneschal shrugged, "one for the guard, one to carry the queen, perhaps another for unseen eventualities – it's hard to be sure sire."

The king made his mind up, "turn out every man you've got who can ride a horse, I want a hundred knights and ten times as many troopers scouring the countryside as soon as they can saddle-up. If we don't find them both by tomorrow morning, I'll march the entire army all the way to the mountains to get them back!"

*****

When Vulkan unrolled the coverlet and spilled the queen out on to the hard flagstones, the dungeon master gaped in surprise.

"Holy shit! It's the queen… Leopold will go nuts when he finds out about this."

"He already knows," snapped the prince, " I made sure of that."

Gargo's face paled. "He'll tear the queen's tower down bit-by-bit until he comes across the adit, they'll find us eventually."

Vulkan grinned, his expression vulpine, "I don't think so, right about now I expect old Leo will be sending out all the available men he's got to pull up every bush and trash every hovel within twenty leagues."

And when Gargo continued to look dubious, "I left a calling card – a nomad dagger in one of the guards – they won't even be looking for her inside the keep and besides, I've sent the king a little present that will soon blunt his curiosity."

*****

Naturally enough, as soon as Countess Jessica heard about the abduction of the queen, she hurried to be of service to the king as he sat in conclave with the seneschal and those few lords deemed too old to be thrashing around the countryside in the middle of the night.

Jessica shooed away the king's pages and saw to it personally that his majesty and his noble lords were well sustained throughout the night with food and wine. Misogynist's to a man, barely a one acknowledged the countess' presence in the room as they discussed the grave business and so it proved child's play for Jessica to slip the potion Vulkan had given her earlier in the evening into the wine she carried to the table.

By the time dawn came up, all of the men found themselves unknowingly afflicted with a creeping dementia that conspired to rob them of their memories and ability to reason. Even to the point where they failed to notice the rambling gibberish, they had all begun to spout at one another.

It was a very well satisfied countess who returned to her chambers in the small hours, to change into her harness and make the journey down into the bowels of the keep where her master awaited.

*****

Queen Amariza picked herself up off the floor and stood shaking in front of the satyresque prince. With disbelieving eyes she looked around the large, torch-lit chamber; wincing at the hellish machines she had thought never to see again, gasping in horror as she made out the dangling, sweating figure of the semi-delirious Lilliphane, gagging with a mixture of embarrassment and revulsion as she beheld the massive cock pointing up at her face like a pike-staff, the head shiny and dripping with pre-cum.

"What kind of fiend are you?" she asked in a whisper.

Vulkan advanced upon her, tearing down the front of her satin nightgown with one sweep of his massive arm, exposing her succulent breasts with their fear hardened, fuchsia-pink nipples. He laughed delightedly as Amariza tried to huddle her arms over her bosom and cover her golden haired sex with her hand.

"The worst kind," scoffed the prince savagely, "the kind created and sent by the Lord High Wizard Malpurgo, whom you no doubt remember as having served you well and whom you wronged most grievously in return."

Amariza blanched as he spoke.

"That sick-minded old fool demanded the hand of our beloved daughter, then only fourteen years old," she spat out, struggling to regain some semblance of her normal icy control.

Vulkan shrugged.

"Nevertheless, my master Malpurgo has charged me with returning your favours ten-fold."

Vulkan's hand shot out, striking Amariza in the diaphragm with his straightened fingers. He grinned as the breath whooshed out of her mouth and she collapsed heavily to her knees. Vulkan resisted the almost overpowering urge to ram his cock down her throat, as she hung there gasping in front of him, but her spirit was not yet broken and he knew she would very likely bite.

Gargo came up behind the queen with an iron collar that he snapped shut around her slender neck and then, bending her arms behind her back, he buckled on a pair of wrist cuffs. These he connected via a short length of chain to a ring in the back of the collar. Amariza was now effectively immobilised; forced to arch backward in an effort to keep the load off her arms and throat.

Vulkan turned to the dungeon master, "start up the forge and get out the branding irons."

Amariza looked up from her knees, her beautiful blue eyes two bleary pools of pain as she struggled to make sense of Vulkan's words.

"I'll see you impaled for this, sirrah!" she hissed, "my husband will drag you behind his horse to the executioner's block by your ears."

Vulkan sneered down at her, "by now your husband is will be drooling like a baby. I very much doubt he can even say the word, 'horse' anymore, let alone ride one."

Vulkan grabbed a thick hank of blonde hair and yanked her head back as far as it would go. Then he took hold of his massive cock in his other fist and offered the glistening, cum-slicked glans to her face, wiping the dripping juice across her cheeks and screwing the bloated meat into her nostrils so that she could appreciate the full smell of him.

Amariza struggled in vane to twist her head away from the vile organ. Unlike her sister-in-law, she had never been fond of sex. After the birth of Flamia, she had actively discouraged the king's visits to her bedchamber and he had rarely bothered her since. Now she was forced to contemplate being raped by what could only described as a nightmare of a cock as Vulkan pushed her face down on to the floor and sank down behind her, his knees pushing between hers as he spread her shaking thighs wide.

Amariza gritted her teeth as she felt his phallus nudge up to her sex, shrugging the exquisitely layered labia easily aside as he pushed forward to locate the first part of the big cock-head in her arid vulva. The prince placed his large palm into the small of her back and pushed down, grinding her soft breasts into the stone to elevate her buttocks and then he rammed himself forward with a loud grunt.

Amariza screamed in agony, as her vagina was rent fully halfway up its length by the stone-hard column of gristle. Vulkan thrust forward again and again until he felt himself fully bottomed within the queen's narrow channel. The quaking noblewoman sucked in a ragged breath as the prince paused to enjoy the incredibly tight, sucking grip her shocked muscles had on his shaft. Then he began to fuck her slowly, feeling her innards rippling and spasming as his great, veined rod slid in and out, building up his speed until her body was lurching back and forth in unison with his and her breath coming in sharp, hacking huffs as he reamed her unused sex.

Such was the state of his excitement that Vulkan ejaculated after only a dozen thrusts, his bulging testes disgorging a huge, scalding stream of zest into her brutalised chasm. Amariza groaned in revulsion as she felt his seed gush in to further violate her body, but her protests soon turned to sighs of relief as the lubricating spunk eased the fiery passage of his cock as it reamed her otherwise bone-dry gulch.

Vulkan withdrew, leaving Amariza's sex gaping slack-mouthed and choked with his thick, dripping curd. The woman lay still, her belly panting. A fine patina of sweat had sprung out to cover her body as she fought to stop herself from shaking. She pressed her forehead to the cool stone, the wide, blue eyes pain-filled and staring into nothingness.

However, her respite was only momentary as Vulkan took his still solid shaft and laid it into the crack of her arse.

"This particular pleasure I will enjoy almost as much as fucking little Flamia," her told her cruelly, barking out with laughter as the outraged queen reared up in outrage at his threat to rape her daughter.

"Spawn of Satan, I hope you rot in Hellarghhhhhhhhh!…" Amariza's curse rose to become an ululating shriek of agony as Vulkan rammed himself into her rectum. The persimmon-sized glans ruptured the delicate girdle of muscle in an excruciating explosion of pain and then he was surging smoothly into her bowels. Such was the level of her pain that Amariza could only squat on her knees shaking from head-to-foot like a jelly, her beautiful red lips peeled back from the perfect white teeth to expose her gums as she bellowed forth endlessly.

Vulkan bellowed too, but his cry was one of pure ecstasy as he slammed himself in and out of the queen's deliciously smooth back passage. His hard hips began to smack into her luxurious arse-cheeks, sending great shockwaves through the slender blonde frame; making her breasts dance and cavort madly as her whole body was rocked by his onslaught.

Amariza's self-control finally cracked and she began to sob uncontrollably as the exultant satyr continued to rape her arse until the blood from her torn sphincter trickled down the insides of her thighs to her knees.

*****

Princess Flamia stood in the centre of her mother's bedchamber with Lord Branco. The ruined door hung drunkenly ajar where the guards had stove it in with their battleaxes not three hours ago.

The pair were looking for any clue to the queen's disappearance that the seneschal's men might have missed. After a few minutes careful searching, Branco noticed some small tufts of what he took to be golden silk sticking out of a joint in the woodwork of the old bookcase. He pulled them free and handed them to Flamia.

"It's some strands of my mother's hair!" she spluttered, holding it up to the sunlight.

Branco returned to the bookcase and after a few minutes close inspection was able to spring open the concealed trap to expose the cramped passage beyond. The knight drew his sword, stepped into the void and cocked an ear, but there was no sound save for the gentle sighing of an updraft.

"Where does it lead?" asked Flamia in a whisper.

"Down," replied Branco darkly, "listen little-one, go quickly to the guardroom on the main landing and bring the sergeant, tell him to follow me down with as many men as he can quickly muster."

Flamia nodded, her pale blue eyes huge with fear as Branco lit one of her mother's bedside candles and disappeared into the dark. As soon as he was gone Flamia picked up her skirts and raced down to the guardroom, but the room was empty. The guard had been stripped down to the outer walls only as the search parties had been dispatched into the surrounding countryside.

In a panic, Flamia ran back to her mother's apartments and stood looking into the awful void. She lit the remaining candle and then she took a very deep breath and followed in Branco's footsteps.

*****

Gargo had the furnace beginning to glow with the help of the little grull who sat patiently to the side, pumping the bellows with his hairy feet to feed the crackling fire with air.

Vulkan had strung Amariza up alongside Lilliphane so that the royal pair hung immobilised and ready for their next trial. The queen watched Vulkan with mounting dread as he sorted amongst a vast array of branding irons until her found one he liked with an unmistakable cock and balls motif and this he brandished in front of Amariza.

"Where do you want it bitch?" he leered at her – the face?" he touched the cold iron to Amariza's soft cheek. Then between her breasts, "what about here, hm?" he trailed the iron lower, enjoying the flutter of her belly as he drew it across her abdomen, "or maybe down here, over your royal cunt?" he tossed the iron to Gargo, who plunged it into the smoking coals with a lopsided grin lighting up his big ugly face.

Amariza's vision blurred as two huge tears of pure terror welled up and began to trickle down her face. The prince groaned as he watched, leaning in close to lick off the salty fluid. She averted her face as his coarse tongue swirled over her skin.

"Kiss me, slut," her murmured into her ear, "kiss me, or I'll put the brand on your snotty, fucking face."

Helplessly, Amariza parted her lips and allowed Vulkan to close his hungry mouth over hers. He plundered her hungrily; his incredibly long tongue slithered insistently around her teeth and palate, lapping playfully at her own small tongue. He kissed her languorously for several minutes, sucking the sweet saliva from her, tickling at the back of her pharynx until she baulked repeatedly.

Gargo handed Vulkan the branding iron and stood close bye, his podgy hand rummaging beneath his apron to grasp his cock as the prince first advanced upon the insensible Lilliphane.

Amariza sounded like she was going to wretch as he took hold of Lilliphane's right nipple and dragged her large breast downward, flattening the heavy bowl. Vulkan raised the iron and pressed it down on to the sweating flesh, his eyes glittering as the damp skin crackled and seared beneath the dully-glowing iron.

For her part, Lilliphane, half demented with the satyr's contagion, simply rolled her head and cried out in a tired, half-hearted kind of way, mercifully oblivious of the indelible mark that had been burned into her flesh.

Gargo put the iron back into the fire as Vulkan returned to Amariza and began to kiss her again. The poorly ventilated chamber had become unbearably hot from the forge and the queen, could barely breathe for the stench of burning flesh filling her nose. She yelped into his mouth as he slipped all four fingers into her exposed sex and began to massage her, his thumb crushing down on her clitoris, masturbating her, teasing her whilst they both waited for the iron.

Gargo harrumphed to signal the brand was ready. Vulkan took the hot steel from him and went to stand in front of the queen. Amariza was shaking from head to foot, her cross-eyed stare fixed to the glowing end of the iron as Vulkan waved it slowly to and fro before her nose, letting her feel the intense, dry heat prickle her flesh.

"Please," she breathed, her voice a distant flurry of autumn leaves as her face began to quiver and crumple, "d-don't b-burn me… I'll d-do anything… anything at all."

Vulkan hesitated, letting the iron swing down by his leg. He smiled a gentle, relenting smile. Amariza smiled too, tremulously at first, her lips quivering and then widening with relief as he began to turn away.

Then suddenly! As quick as a serpent striking he swung back, his arm shooting out to plant the smouldering brand in the centre of her lower stomach.

Amariza screamed as the metal bored into the pale skin of her belly just below the navel, the pubic hair caught under the iron vaporised with a tearing, crackling sound. Vulkan groaned through his teeth as he glared fiercely into her startled eyes, the intense pain was writ large in the deep blue orbs as she stared back at him, tears once again beginning to flood down her cheeks.

The satyr flung away the smoking iron and thrust his quivering cock-meat into her sex, grasping on to the rounds of her buttocks with his strong hands, pulling her away from the wall as he ground himself into her, ramming away at her as she continued to scream out in a mixture of shock and agony. Once again, Vulkan roared out as his buttocks clenched up like two boulders and the climax smashed through his loins, pumping yet more hot gouts of semen into her ever so tight sex chasm as she fell fainting against him.

Behind the dungeon trapdoor Branco heard the Queen's ear splitting cry. The knight felt about in the darkness for the locking mechanism, his desperate fingers fumbling in his haste, finally he was able to throw the handle and thrust his shoulder against the door.

Vulkan heard the door crash open and turned to look over his shoulder just as Branco charged into the dungeon, broadsword held out before him.

The king's champion stood transfixed as he stared around at what looked to a God fearing knight like him to be a scene straight from Hell. The fat, ugly dungeon master, naked save for his work scarred leather apron standing beside the glowing forge. The Princess Lilliphane hanging from the wall, her sweat soaked flesh excoriated from head to foot and her breast scorched with an obscene phallic brand. The queen, also shackled and helpless, with the all but naked Prince Vulkan standing between her thighs, their posture clearly one of copulation.

Branco advanced slowly, looking around in anticipation of an attack from another quarter.

"Step away from the queen," he rasped at Vulkan, "quickly!"

Vulkan released Amariza's hips and stepped back, his cock sliding out of her sex with a viscous, sucking slurp that was audible throughout the silent chamber.

Branco's breath hissed out through his tightly clenched teeth as he watched the satyr's heavy load of spunk begin to drip from the queen's gaping sex lips in long, glistening strands. His grey eyes narrowing to the merest slits as he took in the grotesque cock and ball brand seared into the otherwise perfect plain of her stomach. The knight began to weave the tip of his sword around in figures of eight as he advanced upon the unarmed satyr.

"I don't know what kind of hellish hole in the ground you crawled out of chimera," he growled vengefully, "but I'm going to send you right back down there."

The prince looked quickly about; there were no weapons to hand and without at least a sword, or some length of steel he knew he could not withstand Branco's imminent assault. He looked briefly for the fat dungeon master, but Gargo and his little grull seemed to have wisely faded into the walls.

Vulkan was on the verge of grabbing hold of the queen and threatening to snap her neck when the countess appeared in the doorway behind Branco. Jessica immediately summed up the situation and stepped into the chamber, creeping up behind the knight on the toes of her boots. Vulkan smiled at the champion, speaking quickly and loudly in order to cover the countess' approaching footsteps.

"Well, well, well," he crowed, "if it isn't the king's champion. Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't I kick your sorry ass last week? Didn't I make a donkey's dick of you in front of little Princess Flamia? I hear the king couldn't stop laughing about it for three days."

Jessica had only the multi-thonged scourge Gargo had given her the previous day, but she hoped that would be enough as she whirled the long falls above her and brought them slashing down around Branco's head, the sharp leather ripping into the knight's eyes and blinding him. Vulkan leapt forward, rolling under the expected blind sword lunge Branco made and bowled the knight off his feet, standing back as the countess broke a heavy stool over the knight's head and shoulders. Branco roared like a bull, slashing out with his sword, coming within an inch of eviscerating the nimble countess as she sprang back out the way. However, Jessica had given the super-fast satyr prince all the time he needed to hop in behind the knight and bring him down with a string of vicious chops to the neck.

*****

Princess Flamia finally made it down to the dungeon level after taking more wrong turns that she could remember. The strangely attired Countess Jessica, who passed bye unseeing at one of the many intersections and whom she followed, maintaining a discreet distance, finally guided her in the right direction.

Now Flamia stood, heart pounding, behind the half open door and watched the final few seconds of the struggle between the hateful Vulkan and her beloved Branco.

The teenager had to jam her fist into her mouth as she took in the sight of her mother and aunt dangling from the dungeon walls and the hugely endowed satyr hauling brave Branco's unconscious body about as if the brawny knight were a mere child.

As the enormity of Prince Vulkan's ghastly treachery became obvious, Flamia slowly slunk back into the dark and began the long ascent to her mother's chambers. Her horror at what she had seen in the dreadful dungeon threatened to break out of her in a fit of uncontrolled screaming at any second. Flamia clamped her tiny hand over her mouth as she climbed, terrified that she would hear the pounding tread of the frightful satyr behind her at any moment.

The princess burst out into the daylight and slammed the bookcase quickly closed behind her. She stood, chest heaving for a minute as she regained her breath before racing off to find her father – he would know what to do she told herself.

Leopold was rolling on the floor with the wolfhounds when Flamia ran into the throne room. Around him stood a handful of footmen, all wearing expressions of consternation as they watched the king 'acting the idiot' with the dogs – as he had been for the past hour.

The princess hesitated when she saw the seneschal and two of the old dukes lounging vacantly in the three royal thrones, one of the dukes was drooling from the mouth as he played idly with his penis, something she never would have imagined could happen in the throne room.

Her father giggled inanely as she knelt to tell him about the terrible goings on in the dungeon, wagging his finger at her.

"Now, now, now, Flamia," he spoke as if she were a naughty child, "you know there are no dungeons in papa's castle, mama made him seal them all up before you were even born."

Flamia looked up at the senior footman.

"What has gone on here?" she asked, fear once again tugging at her entrails.

The footman shook his head, backing away nervously, "witchcraft Highness," he breathed quietly, "all gone missing, or mad – it's a curse!"

Flamia tried again to make her father listen, but he seemed stubbornly incapable of rational thought, preferring to wrestle with the hounds rather than listen to her.

With tears of panic and frustration running down her face, Flamia ran from the throne room and out along the empty halls. With almost all of the knights and men-at-arms out of the castle searching the countryside, the once safe and secure keep now seemed empty and daunting. Without thinking where she was running, the princess soon found herself in the stables, where her gentle gelding stood patiently in his stall.

Quickly the princess threw on her saddle and bridle; she would ride to the nearest of the outlying keeps and alert the lord there – he would know what to do.

*****

Vulkan stood over Branco who was gradually re-awakening to find himself lying hogtied and defenceless.

"Two nil to me," the prince grinned down at the knight.

Branco rolled over on to his back and looked up at the queen.

"Forgive me Majesty," he said his voice heavy with shame.

"There is nothing to forgive my noble Lord Branco," replied the queen solicitously, "for indeed you are the truest and bravest of knights."

"Well said," laughed Vulkan heartily, clapping his palms together, " a truly brave knight but bested by a woman all the same."

The prince put his arm around the countess who immediately melded her body to his and began to fondle him lovingly, rubbing herself against him like a cat, giggling as his cock swelled in her clever hand.

"What will you do with him now?" asked Jessica, rubbing her swollen crotch against Vulkan's hip as she gazed down at the handsome Branco.

"Why don't you put the pair of them in the loving-tub?" suggested Gargo, artfully.

"What the fuck's the loving-tub?" asked Vulkan intrigued.

A heavily gagged Branco soon found himself lowered into a large tub that occupied one of the adjacent chambers. The sides of the tub came up to the top of his head. He was naked save for a broad leather waist belt attached by short lengths of chain to the stout plank he sat on, so that he could not stand up.

The queen was similarly secured outside the tub, facing her unfortunate partner at a distance of only a few inches, but unlike his, her seat had a hole cut out exactly below her crotch.

Bolted to the inside of the tub at chest height, was a hand driven crank connected to a 'gulper' pump that vented into a reservoir barrel mounted on top of the apparatus. A spigot in the bottom of the barrel allowed the pumped water to be dropped back into the tub at whatever rate the torturer desired.

The hand crank also drove a simple lever affair that passed through a well greased leather grommet cut into the front of the tub and arranged so as to drive a hugely ridged, leather covered spike, via a simple set of eccentric gears, up through the hole in the queens seat and into her exposed groin.

When the little grull began to fill the tub with buckets of water the purpose of the 'loving-tub' became perfectly clear; Lord Branco could either crank and save himself, violating the queen in the process, or he could sit still and drown.

Predictably enough, the stubborn knight refused to crank and the water was soon lapping at his chin as Vulkan, Gargo and the countess looked on with baited breath.

Amariza knew that the knight would rather die than violate her body and she also knew that she could not let him throw his life away in such a noble, but essentially futile gesture.

"Save yourself, Lord Branco," she said firmly and when he failed to move, "I command it!"

The champion reluctantly began to turn the hand crank. Slowly at first, his eyes averted from Amariza's pensive face hovering only inches away and then more quickly as the grull hurled in another bucketful and the water rose to his lips.

Branco tried to close his ears to the enormous grunt the queen expelled when the fat leather spike plunged up into her vagina for the first time.

"Don't worry about me," she gasped as the knight faltered at the sound of her distress, "keep going, I command you."

"How touching," laughed Vulkan mockingly, his bright eyes dancing.

Amariza expelled another tortured grunt as the cock rose again to force its way into her sex, the delicate organ squelching and still slick with the satyr's spunk.

Branco gritted his teeth against the overwhelming sense of shame and helplessness and continued to crank, the crude pump slurping and belching obscenely as it pushed the small stream of water up to the reservoir above his head.

The old iron mechanism rumbled around merrily, the cock rising and falling as the helpless noblewoman grunted rhythmically in time to the inexorable motion.

The torture continued until Branco had managed to get the water level down to his nipples at which point Vulkan called a halt. Both the queen and the knight slumped on their seats, each grateful in their own ways for the respite.

Vulkan pointed to the yoke holding the leather cock.

"What's that second socket for?"

"Oops! nearly forgot about that."

The grinning gaoler fetched a second, slightly re-curved cock attachment from a nearby chest and fitted it into the yoke so that there were now two fearsome implements ready to be plunged into Amariza's lower orifices.

Vulkan reached up and turned the spigot on the reservoir, grinning down at the helpless couple as the water began to pour down into the tub.

"Now that you've both got the hang of it, lets see what the pair of you can really do."

The queen nodded far more bravely than she felt to the knight and Branco once more began to crank the mechanism. Hesitantly at first as the twin cocks rose up to force their insidious lengths into Amariza's twin holes, making her squeeze her eyes tight shut against the pain as the spikes simultaneously slid into her slack sex and torn anus.

Vulkan gave the spigot another turn and the water level began to rise quickly in the tub. The groaning Branco cranked harder, once again, the mechanism began to revolve smoothly, the twin cocks thrusting in and out of Amariza's belly, making her grunt volubly at each plunging stroke.

"Uhnn!… Arghh!… Uhnn!… Arghh!… Uhnn!… Arghh!"

Vulkan snatched the multi-tailed scourge from the countess and began to flay it across Amariza's shoulders, making her arch her long white back as the leather falls bit into her peerless flesh. The prince's huge arm rose and fell in perfect time to the rise and fall of the bobbing cocks so that Amariza received the maximum possible stimulation.

Slowly at first and almost beyond the unseen borders of her senses, the noblewoman began to feel a strange, forbidden excitement awakening deep within her core. Coupled with this unfamiliar feeling was a leaden cramp that settled into her pudendum and which soon spread out to envelope her whole body. Too incredible for her tortured, confused mind to understand, she could only gasp as her nipples bloomed and hardened at each scorching stroke of the lash.

Amariza barely felt the odious Gargo dip his fat fingers into her sex, nor heard his lascivious cackle as he held up the slick digits.

"I told you it was always the frosty bitches who liquored-up under the lash!" he shouted exultantly.

Vulkan nodded his grin manic as he bent into the blistering next stroke.

"Open the spigot right up," he snapped, "lets see how fast Branco can go."

Gargo leapt to comply.

The unfortunate knight was now as aware as anyone of Amariza's burgeoning excitement. Her anguished face was only inches away from his as she stared down at him. The deep blue eyes were beginning to bulge and the flushed complexion sweated and glowed. Her wide, luscious mouth fell open, gasping hoarsely as the plunging cocks reamed her crotch.

The preternatural philtres the satyr's semen had deposited within her were beginning to do their work and soon her tongue was swirling around her lips as she began to urge Branco on, her words shameful and faltering.

"Oh God!… yes… yes… like that… don't stop… Ooooo…"

However, the horrified knight was incapable of stopping as the water level was now rising faster than he could pump it out. He craned his neck as far back as he could to keep the water out of his nose, his big shoulders pumping with all of his considerable strength in a fruitless bid to stay the rising water level.

Vulkan began to wallop the scourge into Amariza's perfect arse, hooting with approval as she cried out, not in pain any longer, but in sweet agony. The shapely cheeks jiggling as the cocks boomed in and out of her body – driven at top speed by the madly pumping Branco – who was even now disappearing under the foaming surface.

Amariza threw back her head and howled at the ceiling as her first ever orgasm smashed through her belly. Vulkan continued to flog at her, determined to wring every last bit of pleasure out of her vibrating frame as she rode the remarkable loving-tub.

The mechanism began to slow as Branco drowned and so, heedless of the champion's plight, Vulkan unhitched the still shaking Amariza and threw her on to the floor, diving on her, cramming his rock hard sex into her to feel the remnants of her titanic orgasm. The satyr prince roared, his body arched into a tight rictus of pleasure as his seed boiled up the length of his shaft to flood into her once again. The bruised and congested vagina clutched and sucked at him as Amariza gobbled up his surging fluids until she could hold no more and the excess splashed out on to the grey stones beneath her glowing arse cheeks.

At the tub, a reluctant Gargo and the little grull were baling out the water as fast as they could as the determined countess held her hands under Branco's chin in an effort to keep his nose above the surface.

Jessica had had her libidinous eye on the king's champion for many a long year and now that he was finally a captive in the dungeon, there was just no way she was going to let him escape her tender mercies if she could help it.

*****

An hour or so later, a bathed, changed and much reinvigorated Prince Vulkan sauntered through the keep toward the throne room. He was curious to see the veneficious results of Malpurgo's potion, which the countess had administered to the king and his council in the early hours.

Vulkan was met at the great double doors to the throne room by a group of highly agitated footmen. Hopping from foot-to-foot the servants explained that the king and the seneschal had been playing sword fights and the king appeared to have cut off the seneschal's head.

Vulkan clamped his lips together to smother his smile and opened the door a crack. The king was sitting at the foot of the dais absently rolling the seneschal's glowering head between his feet. In the corner, one of the old dukes had his robes up around his pasty white arse and was having a crap while the other old codger looked on blankly.

Vulkan closed the door. It was time to take charge.

"Find a way to lock this door and any other entrances to the throne room," he said sonorously, "the king and his council have clearly been possessed."

Only too pleased to have a noble lord to obey ay last, the footmen scurried off to do his bidding.

Vulkan allowed himself a small smile of self-congratulation.

'Time to find Princess Flamia' he told himself.
