Chapter 14 - The king and the predator
Alexis flew as high as he could without making Serena's excruciating tries to breathe even more painful. He rushed towards
the city at top speed, far too low to stay out of sight, hoping that his speed would help him to stay unharmed. He knew that
the others were at his heels, although he could neither see nor hear them as they flew much higher to keep out of the arrows'
reach. Their dark shadows pacing over the ground gave them away.
He heard the alarmed cries of the people below when he speeded over the city, heard the panic and hatred in their voices. He
saw how women and children fled from the streets to the safety of their houses, saw how the men armed themselves throwing
stones in his direction, shooting arrows to the air. The stones were mostly aimed poor, not even reaching high enough to be
of any concern to him. To dodge the arrows was a more difficult task.
Alexis was glad when his destination was close, although it was also the most dangerous part of his flight. The angry crowd
in the streets tried to follow him but couldn't keep up with his speed. He knew it was not a good idea to come here, but he
was desperate, not knowing where else he could turn. Serena's heart had slowed down to a hardly audible dreadfully weak
palpitation. She didn't have time and so hadn't he.
The guards on the palace wall were so perplexed when he rushed past them, that some didn't shoot their arrows at all and most
only when it was too late. Loud cries of alarm echoed through the palace and soon the whole place was up and about. Alexis
would have wished for a less spectacular appearance, but could be lucky that he or the injured succubus didn't get hit by any
arrows.
Hephaistion stood on the balcony, trying to figure out what the whole uproar was about when Alexis dived down, landing
directly next to him. "What the fuck are you doing here?", the young warrior shouted. "Are you..." He stopped when he saw
Serena and the desperation shading Alexis' beautiful features. The succubus was a dreadful sight, more a lump of meat than a
real shape. The brunette went pale. "Good gods! What has happened?" Hephaistion shoved the incubus towards the bed. "Lay her
down."
Alexis carefully placed Serena on the bed. The succubus moaned in pain, her eyes now closed, but still trying hard to
breathe. "They attacked her", the winged demon said, his voice trembling, his amber eyes glistening with tears.
"But why?", Hephaistion said, staring at the battered form of the crimson-haired succubus. His ocean-blue eyes filled with
tears. He couldn't believe anybody could do such a horrible thing to the light-hearted female.
"They do not need a reason to kill", Alexis answered in a hoarse whisper, brushing damp crimsons strands from Serena's deadly
pale face.
"But she will be alright again?", Hephaistion said. "I've seen your wounds vanish within moments. She will be alright
again!"
Alexis shook his head, not able to speak what he feared to be true. If Serena had inner bleedings she would bleed to death
before the wounds could heal. Instead of answering Hephaistion he just looked up to meet his gaze. The human felt all hope
fail at the incubus' heartbreakingly griefed and desperate expression. He took the demon's clawed hand, squeezing it gently.
"She will be alright", he assured Alexis, tenderly rubbing the silvery tears away from the incubus' cheeks. "I will get her a
healer." He didn't know how to explain the demons' presence to Alexander or how to protect them, but this wasn't important
now. Serena had to be saved.
Hephaistion was half way out the door when Alexander, followed by Ptolemy and Cleitus, stormed around the corner, all fully
armed. Alexander looked determined to do whatever had to be done. "It is him, isn't it?", Alexander said, referring to
Alexis. He shoved Hephaistion aside, entering the room.
Alexander froze in the middle of his motion, staring at the winged predator, stunned by the creature's divine beauty and the
seductive grace he moved with. Alexander cursed himself silently. He should have known which effect the demon would have on
him as he had seen him before, but he had underestimated the incubus' seductive quality. The king was so fascinated by the
incubus that he would have missed the miserable lump of meat lying on the bed if Serena hadn't choked. Alexis greeted
Alexander with a low growl, crouching protectively in front of Serena like a black panther ready to strike, his golden eyes
dangerously narrowed to slits.
"Stay away from her", the demon hissed, showing his sharp fangs, all muscles tense, his mighty black wings slightly spread.
He would not allow anybody to harm Serena anymore.
"What is going on? What has happened to her?", Alexander exclaimed in shock, suddenly dragged back to reality.
"We can discuss later", Hephaistion interferred, touching Alexander's arm to stop him from going any closer to Alexis. This
was the confrontation Hephaistion had feared since he had first met the incubus. It was a quite morbid thought, but
Hephaistion believed, that Serena's dreadful injuries prevented Alexis and Alexander from fighting each other at first sight.
"But first Serena does need a healer!"
To his and Alexis relief the king nodded and allowed Hephaistion to shove him back to the door, where Cleitus waited.
Ptolemy already had run of to get the doctor. The poor female on the bed was in such a dreadful shape that Ptolemy simply
forgot she was a demon.
Cleitus didn't look happy at all. First because of the incubus' seductive presence which had a very unpleasant and
unfamiliar effect on him, second because Alexander seemed to be affected in the same way. "Don't we kill them?", he asked
rather disappointed. Hephaistion shot him a angry look, always making sure that he was between Cleitus and the two winged
predators - although this was more for Cleitus' sake as Hephaistion didn't doubt Alexis could rip the bearded man to pieces
without much of an effort.
"No we don't", Alexander said thoughtfully, watching the raven-haired incubus thouroughly. His questioning gaze was returned
by amber eyes still shaded with tears. At this very moment the demon looked both heartbreakingly vulnerable and terribly
dangerous at the same time. Alexander could see despair and love in the beast's golden eyes and a strong determination to
protect those he loved. The king now understood that he wasn't just confrontated with a bloodthirsty monster, but that maybe
Hephaistion was right - to some point.
At least Alexander's curiousity was awakend. He had to learn more about this fascinating creature. Still Alexander had to be
careful. The bewitching beauty was able to twist the king around his little finger if Alexander wasn't on guard. He wasn't
willing to trust the demons. But he was willing to show some friendly advance, as any other reaction would have driven
Hephaistion farther away from him and into the demon's arms.
"There will be done no harm neither to you nor to the female within these walls", Alexander said solemnly. "I give you my word
of honour." Cleitus nearly fainted, not believing what he heard, while Hephaistion and Alexis visibly relaxed at the king's
words.
"I do thank you", Alexis said, his velvet voice slightly trembling. He was still tense, listening to Serena's choking breath
and the low beat of her heart. And he wasn't sure if he could really trust the king of men until Hephaistion scattered his
doubts.
"Alexander has never broken a word of honour", the young warrior said, smiling with relief. He was holding Alexander's hand,
tenderly stroking it with his thumb. The king's decision had pleasantly surprised him as he had expected a long and hard
quarrel with the king. It seemed the blond had abandoned his magic theory after the priest's visit.
Alexis nodded, turning his full attention to Serena, while Hephaistion explained to Alexander what had happened to the
succubus and Cleitus unsuccessfully tried to protest against the king's vow. Then Ptolemy returned with the dumb healer and
at the same time Cassander arrived with ill news.
"There's an angry mob at the front gate, led by this priest, Pollon. He says Babylon is ruled by blasphemers. He says you
harbour one of the demons. And they threaten to break the gates open", Cassander told, while the very frightend looking
doctor took care of Serena under the watchful eyes of Alexis. The incubus growled at the old man whenever Serena moaned in
pain, showing his fangs and flexing his claws, until Hephaistion put his hands on the demon's shoulder and with soothing
words lured him away from the panicing healer.
"Partly true", Alexander corrected. "I harbour two of them."
"You don't expect me to tell that to the mob, do you?", Cassander asked. "It's about thousand or even more of them out there.
They are armed with torches and knifes. Some have swords. I don't think they really can break the gates, but the fire could
cause problems. We could shoot them down, but honestly I think that would do more harm than good."
"Hand them over to the people", Cleitus demanded. "These beasts do mean no good."
"I have sworn to do them no harm", Alexander hissed angrily. "Do you want me to become a traitor?"
"Certainly not, my king", Cleitus said. He felt like being caught in the middle of a nightmare and wished he could wake
up.
"Then shut up." Alexander turned to Cassander. "Tell the people of Babylon to return to their homes. Their king will despense
justice on the demons. Oh, and tell that insulting brute of a priest that if he dares to set the citizens up against me again
I might think about starting a collection of priests' heads. Thanks to the winged predators I already own the head of the
former high priest of Nusku. Pollon's head would be a proper complement." Cassander nodded and left, none too happy with his
task.
Meanwhile the healer splinted Serena's wings with much care to make sure that the bones would grow together correctly. Her
breathing had eased a bit, the wounds slowly began to close. But still her heartbeat was far too weak like it would fade away
every moment. Hephaistion had wrapped his arms around Alexis' neck, comforting him. He could feel him shake at the sight of
Serena's agony.
Alexander wasn't sure if he liked how Hephaistion clung to the golden-eyed demon. Seeing the brunette pressed against the
nearly nude and perfectly sculptured form of the incubus made him jealous and at the same time had a thrilling quality.
"I want a word with you, Alexis", the king said. "Alone."
Cleitus got very pale. "No, my king. This is too dangerous."
"Oh, shut up", Alexander snapped. "Alexis promised not to hunt in the palace and that no harm would be done to those
inhabiting it. And I expect him to keep his vows as I do." The king noticed Hephaistion smiling at him happily and smiled
back.
"Now, that's how I use to know and love him", Hephaistion thought, a warm sensation blossoming in his heart.
Alexis looked unsure, hesitating. He didn't want to leave Serena back here alone. What if she needed him? What if she died
while he was away? What if the healer harmed Serena? What if the humans couldn't be trusted despite Hephaistion's assurance?
The incubus didn't like Cleitus at all and was not willing to let him get close to the wounded succubus.
His doubts must have been plain on his face, as Hephaistion brushed a strand of silky black hair from his face in a soothing
gesture. "I will stay with her and inform you when something happens." He followed the demon's gaze to Cleitus and added:
"And I'm sure Cleitus has other things to do somewhere else in the palace quite far away from here."
"Indeed", Alexander exclaimed. "Cleitus, old friend, you look tired. Go to bed." The way the king uttered his suggestion it
was clearly meant as a command. Cleitus swallowed hard, the anger sticking in his throat like a hardly chewed bit of meat. Then he bowed and
stormed of. Alexander looked quite pleased with himself. "Now that this is done, would you please follow me."
Alexander took the lead, not daring to look back at the incubus who followed, his movements full of his natural grace. The
demon's presence made him dizzy with insane desire, threatening to burn him alive. He had to keep himself under control, a
pretty diffcult task for Alexander as he was used to let his temper flow in every direction he felt to and was used to take
and get what he wanted. It perhaps hadn't been a smart idea to ask the raven-haired beauty to a lonely encounter. Cleitus
would have been a perfect watch dog on a second thought, but now it was too late.
Alexander led the demon to his - and former Darius' - study, where he stood at the window watching the city below in order to
avoid the excitating sight of the winged predator. Despite his worries about Serena, Alexis by now was highly amused, as he
had caught the scent of the king's heavy arousal and could sense his inner strife. The incubus decided to tease the king,
beginning a game he knew well as he was born to play and win it.
"I want you to stay away from Hephaistion", Alexander said, his mind haunted by wicked images of the golden-eyed incubus.
"Is this a command?", Alexis asked, his soft baritone voice dripping with seduction. The sound sent thrilling shivers down
Alexander's spine and added pressure to his growing desire.
"Let's say I ask a favour in return for helping you and the succubus." Alexander continued to stare out of the window,
although he didn't like the view at all, as he could see the angry mob gathered in front of the palace gates, led by this
annoying gnome of a priest.
"Do you ask this favour for yourself or for Hephaistion?", Alexis asked. His warm breath was blowing against the king's neck,
causing Alexander to jump startled, as he hadn't heard the incubus' move closer. It cost him the biggest amount of
self-control not to spin around and take what he lusted for more every second that passed. He cursed himself again. If this
wasn't evil magic, he didn't know what else it could be.
"What do you mean?", Alexander managed to say, his voice rather husky. "I don't want him to get hurt."
"Don't you? But by denying him a pleasure he enjoys, you do hurt him. You take something away from him that makes him happy.
And you do this because you feel jealous. You simply don't want to share."
Alexander shivered with anger and desire. He could feel the heat radiating from the incubus' body, standing right behind him.
"How dare you talk to me like that?", he growled, facing the demon. He looked up - as the incubus was taller than he - into
two orbs of molten gold and all his fury and with it all accusations evaporated, as his mind went numb and somewhat empty. "I
do love Hephaistion", the king said in a low hoarse voice.
"You haven't shown much of your affection lately." The incubus retreated one step and smiled wickedly when Alexander followed,
driven by the lewd temptation he couldn't resist. "Hephaistion is precious. Still you seem to take him for granted. You don't
recognize his love as something very special."
"He belongs to me. To me and to noone else", Alexander said, never breaking eye-contact with the demon. He felt as if he had
fallen into an ocean of liquid gold and would have willingly drowned there.
"You do not own him. He choses to be with you", Alxis whispered huskily, every word enriched with lascivity. He knew he was
driving Alexander mad and found it quite amusing how the blond man tried rather unsuccsessfully to resist his overwhelming
desire. The king certainly wasn't a man who could control himself easily, a self-centered and far too proud person.
"I am the king. I always do get what I want. Nobody can deny it to me." His words had hardly passed his lips, when he placed
a hand at the back of the incubus' head, pulling him close to meet his hungry kiss. His other hand glided down the demon's
muscular chest and belly, tearing at the cloth tied losely around his hips. Alexander would show this lewd creatur, heating
his passion to an infernal blaze, who was the one in command. "I always do get what I want", the king informed the
raven-haired incubus, after he had finally broken the passionate kiss, now pushing the winged demon towards his
bedchamber. His doings were the invitation Alexis' had waited for.
"Indeed?", Alexis said with a very wide and terribly wicked grin, responsing to the king's pressure obediently, but things
were about to change. Alexis decided to teach the king a lesson in submissiveness which Alexander wouldn't forget for the rest of
his life.
Before Alexander could even utter his surprise he was lifted up and thrown to the bed like a life-size doll, the incubus
mounting him, pressing him to the mattress. Next the king's arms were brought above his head, his wrists encircled in an iron
grip. He would have struggled himself free, but the incubus held him in place quite easily, he would have protested, but the
wicked beast silenced him with another harsh kiss, thrusting his hot and velvet tongue in the moist cavern of Alexander's mouth.
Alexander moaned in pleasure, closing his eyes. When he opened them again only instants later his hands were already neatly
tied to the bed with parts of the silk sheet.
The incubus was towering over him, his eyes a glowing bronze fire. "So you thought, you could dominate me?", the winged
predator laughed, while Alexander tried hard to get his hands free and buck the incubus of. Alexis watched his useless
attempts patiently and with a highly amused smirk that made Alexander roar with fury. In the end the silk ropes cut painfully
into the human's flesh and he was quite exhausted, sweat shimmering on his smooth skin.
"Let go of me!", Alexander yelled in frustration. This was not how it was meant to be. The situation had gone out of control
and he found himself dominated in a most humilating way. Panic was nagging at the edge of his mind, but was dulled by the
burning desire asking for relief. "I order you to free me at once! I am the king!" The last part of the sentence was
swallowed by a loud moan of pleasure, as the incubus had started to nibble at the human's earlobe, trailing bites and kisses
down his throat and along his collarbone, while his claws ripped the human's clothes away, travelling over his chest and flat
belly, leaving little cuts on his way down.
"Hm? Oh yes, you are", Alexis agreed, but didn't show any sign of obedience to the king's demands. Instead he went on to
stroke his prey's inner thighs and to kiss, bite and suck at his neck, licking away tiny drops of crimson blood with the tip
of his tongue.
"Treacherous beast!" Alexander's hiss changed into a passionate groan, as the incubus carefully took care of the blond man's
nipples with his tongue and teeth, biting and sucking at the hardening flesh till it was sore and painfully sensitive. "You
promised not to harm me."
"But I do not harm you", the incubus said with a seductive smile, visibly enjoying his wicked game. "We're just having some
fun. That's what you wanted, isn't it? Don't you like it?" He shifted his weight, putting more pressure to the human's
pulsating erection, stroking his swollen balls tenderly.
"No!", Alexander managed to gasp, his head tilted back, all muscles tense with the boiling sensation that rushed through his
body. He started to pull at the bonds again. It drove him mad that he was at the demon's mercy and could do nothing but lie
there and be taken like some bloody catamite. Alexander flew into a tantrum, yelling and howling at the incubus, but it
dind't help him.
"Liar", the winged demon chuckled. "Your body betrays your nasty words. You're annoyingly naughty. Guess, I have to punish
you." He cut the ropes binding Alexander and flung him around as if he was not a skilled warrior but a little boy, completely
ignoring the maniacal human's yells of protest while he gave the king a sound spanking.
Alexander howled more in fury than pain when the first slap hit his bare flesh. A second followed, then a third one, and the
king didn't know anymore what he was more furious about: The fact that he got disciplined or that deep down in the shadows of
his soul he truly enjoyed the punishment.
Meanwhile Alexis had a really good time. The worse the king's fit of raving madness got, the more the incubus enjoyed it.
"You could apologize for all those nasty things you said, you know", Alexis said in a sweet and innocent tone, causing
Alexander to curse him with the wrath of Nusku and a lot of other remarkable obscenities.
After about ten or so slaps, leaving a bright red imprint of Alexis' hand on the human's buttocks, the incubus pulled the
human to kneel on all fours, pressing his head none to gently to the mattress, while keeping him in place with an arm wrapped
around the human's waist. Alexander put up another useless struggle when he felt the incubus' hard length pressing against
his ass.
"Submit", the demon growled, digging his claws into the blond man's flesh, deep red blood pearling over the king's smooth
skin. "Submit or it will hurt you."
"You will pay for this", Alexander hissed furiously.
Alexis sighed, meanwhile rather unnerved, tying Alexander's hands to the bed again to get his own hands free. "You would
enjoy yourself much more if you weren't so bloody stubborn", he whispered in the human's ear, tracing it's outlines with his
rough tongue, while his now unoccupied hands stroke Alexander's body, scratching his skin gently with his claws. The human
shivered, moaning softly.
"Submit", the incubus demanded again, but Alexander only shook his head, not able to utter any other sounds but lewd groans
of pleasure, squirming under the demon's exquisite touch. The treatment got rougher, claws drawing blood, as Alexis felt his
own glimming passion blaze to a sizzling fire. The beast sneaked to the edge of the shadow, waiting for it's time to come,
and roared with dissapointment when it was shoved back to the darkness. But it was still there, lingering in the blackness of
the incubus' soul, waiting.
"Submit", Alexis hissed. He had found a scented oil in an earthen bottle, standing next to the king's bed. His slick oily
fingers carefully preparing Alexander for the intrusion, taking special care not to hurt him with his claws, which was a
quite difficult thing to do.
Alexander tilted his head back, arching his back. He wanted nothing more than to feel the incubus' impressive length inside
him, but he would neither admit this nor submit to the winged demon. He cursed his own stubborness and shook his head again,
putting up another weak fight, pulling at the silk ropes.
"So you want it rough." Alexis shrugged. "It's your decision." He placed his hands on Alexander's hips to keep the king from
bucking, and rammed in with one deep thrust, the tight muscles of the human's entrance contracting in spasm. Alexander cried
out in pain and shock at the sudden brutal intrusion. He tried to get free again, but failed as Alexis held him in an iron
grip.
"Submit", the demon growled, his eyes a blazing copper, when he moved in a fast rhythm inside Alexander's narrow passage,
fitting exquisitly tight aroung him.
And at last Alexander gave in, moving with the incubus instead of struggling against him. The pain of every thrust faded as
he relaxed and a thrilling sensation spread from the blond man's loins, radiating through his shaking body. Long passionate
cries and lewd moans escaped his mouth, his own throbbing dick flapped against his stomach. He would never have believed that
being dominated like this could feel so mind-numbing good.
Alexis heard the deep grunts and lustful groans of his squriming prey, he heard the call of the beast, his blood boiling in
his veins, an excitating mind-numbing sensation thundering through his very being. He felt the human shake when he spilled
his hot seed on the silk sheets, collapsing to the mattress.
The predator finally let got of the king, cutting him free. Alexander laid on the bed, panting, his face quite red, anger
returning. Alexis presented his sweetest and most innocent smile to the battered king. "Now, back to the topic we've been
discussing before this - incident", the incubus said with a flutter of his long eyelashes.
Before Alexander was able to shout at the incubus there was a knock at the door. A young servant stepped in timidly, trying
very hard to look anywhere but at the bed. "Please, it is about the winged woman", the boy muttered.
