Chapter 10

Outside of the Menagerie, at the far end of the solar system, there was a rather significant battlefleet cruising towards the only habitable world in the solar system. At the last glance I had taken at any of the monitors on the ship, they had three of those super-dreadnoughts that flaunted the fact they were in space to be preposterously over sized. Dozens of kilometers of hardened alloys and duranium in a roughly wedge shape, covered with weaponry that could glass continents and turn entire planetary ecologies into smoldering kindling. They were flanked by four battleships each – for a total of twelve – which themselves were infinitely more practical if less objectively terrifying. While the battleships didn’t have quite so many guns, they were more manuverable and able to support one another in fleet combat actions. Those battleships were, themselves, at the head of sub formations comprised of half a dozen frigates, cruisers and destroyers in varying arrangements, with a knot of carriers flying behind the whole fleet, which themselves were supporting wing upon wing of strike craft, who could carve through space with terrifying speed and drop pinpoint munitions on bases, fortifications and starships with equal impunity.

All of them were controlled by the single malign intelligence that was the Dark Lord, an immortal being that was dedicated to the utter destruction to all of life in the galaxy. Every elf, gnoll, orc, goblin, dragon, every single critter that I hadn’t even had a name for, all of them would be destroyed.

Unless we stopped him.

“This, in all,” I said, as I sat on the scanning bed in the antiseptic medical facility that I had to be in for this to work. “Is why I’m having a bit of a problem getting an erection, Kanagoraga. It has nothing to do with you.”

Kanagoraga, who had been quite confident in her abilities to arouse her husband – I wondered if she even remembered the time where she had declared her marriage to me would be entirely fake – frowned as she looked down at the thigh high laytex boots and the elbow length gloves, which were the entirety of her current outfit, assuming one didn’t count the little bunny ears she was wearing as well. Bunny ears with naturally occuring elf ears, it was a strange look.

“But I thought men love reverse bunny suits,” she said, frowning.

“It’s not you,” I said, again, laughing despite myself. “I just have a hard time thinking of how very, very, very, very sexy you look like that when there’s a battlefleet coming at us.”

“It’s coming very slowly,” Kanagoraga said, frowning.

“Almost as slowly as he is.”

The muffled voice that came from the other side of the observation room’s frosted glass jerked both me and Kanagoraga’s gaze over. That had sounded like Ara Ara. Kanagoraga scowled, then made a rude gesture with her free hand that looked for all the world like snipping with her fingers. “What is that?” I whispered to her.

“Ear snipping, it’s the old fuck you gesture,” Kanagoraga said. “Though, this works too.”

She flipped the bird at the window.

The door opened from the scanning room to the observation chamber and Ara Ara came jiggling in. The busty woman glowered at Kanagoraga and immediately put her hand on my balls. “If you need help getting a gnoll aroused,” she said.

“Excuse me, please do not grab my junk,” I said, flatly.

Ara Ara looked at me, then withdrew her hand. “Apologies.” She said, then hesitated. “But we do need to get you aroused. And men do love having their balls fondled, their cocks sucked, elf girls giving them pouty expressions, fluttering their eyelashes, crooning about how virile they are.” She sighed, softly. “And if this Lady Kanagoraga won’t do it, I suppose I must.”

“I was getting to it,” Kanagoraga snapped, glaring at Ara Ara, who clicked her tongue and shook her head.

“I don’t just need elf women to kneel before me to get aroused,” I said, flatly. “I just need to not be under near imminent threat of plasma obliteration.” I put my fingers on my temples. “Just. Give me a second.” My fingers rubbed against the fur there, and I tried to ease the tension in my head.

Faintly, I heard Alin’s voice.

“Huh!”

I opened my eye one slit – and saw that despite my words, Kanagoraga and Ara Ara were both still glowering at one another. It seemed that the little brawl they had was not being bygones, no matter how dire the situation was. But in the frosted window, Alin was standing and had somehow made the privacy frost go away with a thought. She was holding up a small paper: Talking is working too. Lightning up the whole system. Keep going.

I arched an eyebrow, then looked back at Kanagoraga and Ara Ara. “Both of you, back off. Now.” I stood up, then rolled my shoulders. If talking was going to work, then I was going to talk this through. There was no need to stoop to sex and fucking when talking would work with a whole lot less bodily fluids and stress. I opened my muzzle, but Kanagoraga reacted quickly. She grabbed onto Ara Ara’s shoulders and pushed the curvacious, nearly naked elf general to her knees. Ara Ara squeaked in surprise, her heafty breasts jiggling fetchingly, while Kanagoraga spoke, quickly.

“Take advantage! Cock her now.”

“I don’t think you can use cock as a verb like that,” I said, shaking my head, as I saw Ara Ara looking as if she was building up her energy, her brow furrowing as she scowled. “And ... I...” I paused – then. Because while Ara Ara was tensing herself up, her eyes were settled onto a line that went straight from her to my crotch. And that, it seemed, had drawn her up short. Her eyes widened fractionally as I looked down at her – and then she jerked her gaze up from my crotch to my eyes, her cheeks flushing slightly.

“The meaning was communicated,” she said.

I rubbed my hand along my hair slowly.

“See, there we go!”

Alin’s voice came clearly through the room’s speakers. I looked to my side, and saw that the faint outline that was Alin, leaning on her elbow while another faint outline that had to be Keke stood beside her. I could practically hear her smile as her voice continued over the PA. “See, I just lied to him to get him to relax – now, he can get to seducing the two girls without thinking he has to do it. It’s pretty easy, once you figure out how Matt’s brain works. See, he’s already got Ara Ara on her knees.”

“Does she know she’s leaning on the PA button?” Kanagoraga whispered to me, her voice breathy and warm in my ear.

I shook my head, then raised my finger up, to indicate she should remain quiet. I looked back down at Ara Ara, who had managed to tear her gaze off my balls. “I have an idea.”

“Oh?” Ara Ara whispered.

I knelt down, grabbed onto her hips with both of my paws and hefted her up. I might not have been super strong or super fast like elves were, but I was still the peak of what could be normally accomplished with muscle and athleticism. This meant it was child’s play to swing Ara Ara around and squish her bountiful chest up against the glass window of the observation room, her hands planting to either side of her body as she braced herself, gasping in shock. “Y-Your brute!” she exclaimed, and I wasn’t sure if that was her actual response or if she thought it would get me aroused.

Fuck it does, though, I thought as I grabbed onto the thin strip of fabric that covered her hairless pussy and yanked it off. It came free with a soft click, revealing her plush, soaked cuntlips to my gaze. I licked my muzzle as my bright red cock started to slide out more and more and more, filling as it emerged from my sheath. Kanagoraga stepped up behind me, whispering in my ear. “There we go,” she said, her hand closing around the base of my dick. She squeezed my knot, forcing my dick to get even harder, even longer. My tip drooled onto Ara Ara’s cushy rump. Over her shoulder, I could see that, from posture alone, both Alin and Keke were stiff and focused entirely on the toothsome elfish tits squishing up near their face.

Kanagoraga rubbed the tip of my dick against Ara Ara, whispering in my ear. “Fuck her up, husband,” she whispered.

“Well, if you command,” I said, quietly. My dick started to push, inch by inch into Ara Ara. The curvy elf moaned hungrily, while Kanagoraga started to kiss the nape of my neck. She nuzzled against my fur, breathed in my scent, then started to plant kiss after kiss along my spine, my broad shoulders, the small of my back. The feeling of her dark lips exploring her way down, down, down to my tail was almost as electrically, erotically pleasing as the feeling of Ara Ara’s truly godlike pussy around me. She accepted my cock as if she had been born to take me, clenching and tightening just so with every inch. She was so wet that even her clenches seemed to draw me in deeper, rather than make it hard to pull out.
