The Maze (12 page)

“So beautiful,” he whispered, shucking what remained of his clothing and climbing on top of her.  His body shadowed hers, covering her completely as he straddled her. His manhood again started to grow as he touched her skin, tracing every curve, memorizing every inch of her, forever sealing her image into his mind.

He spread her legs wide and climbed between them, kissing her stomach, her breasts, and the inside of her thighs.  He grinned, touching her pussy, which oozed his seed. She was truly his.  Forever.

The tip of his cock quickly found her entrance and slipped deep inside of her again. Traisk waited for her to relax; he was a large man and he knew she had to be very sore from their first encounter.  He was surprised when she clapped her legs around his waist and demanded that he be a Strong Man and fuck her properly.  She must have forgotten that their every move was being broadcast.

The crowd stood, cheering
and clapping.

“You are mine,” Keeria announced,
catching her breath
as she wrapped
her arms around his neck

“That’s not how it works here, little girl. You do know that if you kill me now, you’ll be executed,” he warned her, kissing her neck
as he settled next to her and drew her into his arms
.

“Don’t give me a reason to kill you, then, and everything will be fine. Th
at includes ever trying to make me jealous again
,” she answered back.

Traisk shook his head, sitting up. “Must you continue to be sassy?
And with all these people watching?
Come here, and see what happens when a woman sasses her Strong Man.”

Keeria suddenly reddened.  She h
ad completely forgotten about their audience in her wanton show of boldness.  Traisk did not give her an opportunity to dwell on it
as he speedily deposited her over his lap and began to playfully (but still painfully) spank her bottom to a nice shade of pink, avoiding her bruises as much as possible.  Tears came to her eyes, but from gratitude and joy.  When he released her, she flung herself onto his lap and kissed him soundly.

The crowd cheered.

“I h
ave need of you one more time before we have to leave,” Traisk announced, lifting her into his arms and carrying her to the pool. 

“But everyone is watching,” she whispered, arms still around his neck as he stepped into the water.

“So, let them watch.  Maybe they’ll learn a few things,” he grinned. She sighed as he lowered her in, the hot, fragrant water soothing her stiff, sore, and well-used body. He bathed her gently for a few minutes, caressing her as she relaxed under his touch. Her leg bumped his rigid manhood and she giggled, reaching for it.

“It’s so big,” Keeria commented, starting to climb onto his lap as she chewed on his neck.

“It’s still hungry for you.  No, I will claim you completely,” Traisk announced, turning her back to him.

“No, please, not that.  I’m still so sore,” Keeria begged as he held her around the waist and began to probe her stretched bottom with his finger. 

“You are mine and I will have the entire planet know this.  Now and forever,” he said loudly, positioning himself behind her and pinning her in place. Keeria closed her eyes as she felt the tip of his cock seek her aching, tender anus.  He entered her gently, slowly inching inside of her and stretching her almost as wide as the plug.

“Take me in.  All of me, Keeria,” he demanded, pushing her pelvis down to go deeper.

“It hurts, Traisk.  Slow down,” Keeria whimpered.  He paused to let her accommodate him.

“Embrace the pain, Keeria. You are mine.  Every… last… inch of you.” He drove himself completely inside of her, gripping her to his body possessively.

“Oh… Traisk… you DO feel different than that THING,” she muttered, relaxing and feeling arousal starting to wash over her again.

“Mmmm, you are so tight and hot.  Hold on, my love,” his voice strained with control as he played with her clit, pulling back before sinking as deep as he could within her tight canal.  Keeria, giddy with pain and pleasure, pressed against him, inviting him to explore the depths of her body. His strokes were slow, long and hard and felt like they touched the very core of her existence.  She could hear blood pulsing in her ears as she grew closer and closer to the point of no return, the orgasm that threatened to throw her into the heavens.  She held back nothing as she screamed, slamming her body completely to the base of his shaft. That final plunge was his reward as well, sending rivers of hot cum deep into her bowels.

Exhausted and completely spent, Traisk leaned over Keeria’s back as he caught his breath.  She clung to the pool’s edge, consumed by her passion and breath-taking pleasure.

The crowd gave a standing ovation, hooting with excitement.

“M
aybe we should stay televised if it means sex will always be this good,” Traisk whispered into Keeria’s ear. She had once again forgotten that literally almost everyone in the world was watching.  She sunk under the water in embarrassment.

Traisk laughed, pulling her up. “You can’t hold your breath forever. 
Come on, we need to get out of this place.  We don’t have much time.” Tr
aisk announced, pulling himself out and bringing Keeria with him.

“Where are we going?” Keeria asked, quickly dressing.  Traisk hesitated before handing her the blunted dagger.

“To rescue the other two.  I plan on leaving with all three of you.”

“What?!”

Chapter Eight

“He can’t do that!” Kal yelled, jumping to his feet. “He’ll forfeit his win! He has to carry out his prize. He knows that!”

“Trust the boy.  You trained him for strategy.  The Elders will be pissed because he caught them in their own game.”

“Denkar, are you fucking crazy?” Kal addressed his friend by first name. “They will execute him before they let him do this.”

“Don’t you see?  Look at the ratings.  The citizens love him.  Wasn’t it your hope that the majority would bring him in? Elder votes always occur the day after the game.  If he dies, none of the elders will be re-elected.  They will lose their st
atus, their money, their
m
a
tes and then be sent to be
altered
.  They also know that if anything happens to him, the population will blame them.  He’s safer now than he will ever be. He knows how to pl
ay the game.  More than we ever did.
Smart boy,” Denk
ar
said proudly of his son.

They watched, breath held, as Traisk untied the other two women and led them out to where the secret exit was hidden.  He pushed aside the vines and watched the clock.

“Are you ready?” he asked the three girls.  They nodded.  As the buzzer sounded and the exit opened, Keeria leapt on his back and he grabbed Suri and Lina around the waist, and e
asily
carried the three across the threshold of the exit.  He stood silently in the center of the arena, slowly placing the two in his arms down and drawing Keeria to his side. She held Churros snugly in her arms, trying to keep it from poking her out of fear. Traisk gently removed the frightened animal from her hold and tucked it against his waist.

“I claim my prize. Three Trained Ones have been conquered and carried
as witnessed by the people of Elien.
This one I choose for my mate.  I free my remaining prizes to stay with me or seek men of their own.”

“Strong Man Traisk! You are in contempt of the Elders! How dare you challenge the rules of the game.  One only!” the Elders shouted from their box.

The crowd hissed and booed.  “Give him all! Give him all!” they started to chant.

“NO!! He can’t have all! Only one!!!” one of the elders shouted at the crowd, waving his fist. His old face paled as a man whispered something into his ear.

“What’s happening?” Keeria asked, clinging to her Strong Man.

“The rules do not
account for this little hitch. I’m hoping I found a loophole and that the people support it,” Traisk whispered back, “
I’m not sure, but I think the populace is demanding a vote of the High Council right now.”

A hush fell over the crowd as the High Council approached the arena. The High Elder raised his arm.

“My people.  We have witnessed an event of great magnitude this day.  The Strong Man, Traisk, has conquered three Trained Ones.  We wish to congratulate him on his success.”

“Smart guy.  Wants to prevent a riot,” Kal elbowed her friend, watching the screen.

“The High Council wishes to extend our invitation for Strong Man Traisk to join us as a High Council advisor.”

“Keep your friends close and your enemies closer,” Denk
ar
chuckled.

“Do you accept our offer, Strong Man Traisk?”

“I do, High Elder. Under one condition.”

“What is he doing now?” Kal groaned.  “That’s how you lost your balls!”

“Oh, shut up,” Denkar snapped.

“You place conditions upon us, Strong Man?” The High Elder sounded appalled.  Traisk bowed respectfully.

“Please forgive my boldness, but I must. Each of the High council has mates, do they not? I wish to declare the harem to be set free. There
are many Free Citizens who would cherish a companion of their beauty and intelligence
.”

The crowd applauded, growing more excited. The chance to own a Trained One?

“How dare he?!” the first Elder who had protested shouted.  “Those mares are for our enjoyment!”

“You are an old man.  How much pleasure can they be to you except when you hurt them?” Tr
aisk continued. “
In lieu of
auctions,
I propose the High Council develop
a system that will allow both parties, the Free Citizen and the Trained One, to negotiate service time and duties.  Fees for the service will be based on the value the Trained One determines for herself and what service she wishes to provide. This will make ownership affordable for almost anyone. These contracts will have strictly enforced guidelines for care and allow both the parties the option to renew, renegotiate or discontinue after the set time has passed.”

“I also propose an allowance system, paid by the High Council, so that the Trained One can care for herself in the event her master dies or either party choses to end their relationship due to breach of contract.  Of course, any Trained One who wishes to be placed on the auction block or to bid herself out will be permitted to do so.

“The second condition will be that any woman who is eligible for the Maze will be given
a choice to either compete or chose her own mate from among the Strong Men to fulfill her duty to society.  She will also be given the option to keep her child.  All abuse and rape must be abolished and the Trained Ones need to be
protected by the High Council.  The people s
aw, and supported, my example in the Maze.  Did they not?” Traisk asked the crowd.

An explosion of support rose from the bleachers, deafening him.

The High Council looked very nervous.

“My third
and final condition is to
vote out any Elders who disagree with my advice.”

The crowd laughed, clapping frantically.

The High Elder scanned the hundreds of thousands surrounding them before turning to consider the new advisor carefully. The boy h
ad pl
ayed the game like an expert.  He was impressed.

“Very well. As High Elder, I claim my right to final decision on this matter. I accept the conditions of advisor Traisk. I also wish to give any Elders who disagree with these conditions the option to step out of office now, without shame.  Those who conflict with this decree after this time will be removed forcibly. Guards, please show this one out
and detain him.
”  The High Elder pointed to the red faced, shouting man. He then turned back to Traisk.  “I never liked him much anyway.  Welcome to the Council, son.  Does your mare have a name?”

“My WIFE is called Keeria.  These are my wards, Lina and Suri. Suri?” Traisk turned to see the tall woman talking to one of the guards. Brat.

“Well, Elder Tr
aisk, it seems you will have your work cut out for you.  Between the High Council and c
aring for
three Trained Ones, I think you might be wishing to return to the arena,” the old man smiled as Traisk pointed to the spot in front of him and frowned at Suri, who pretended not to see him.

“Believe me, High Elder, that thought has crossed my mind more than once since this whole thing started. Suri! Lina! Come back here, now! Oh, d
amn, where did Keeria go?
”

The High Elder just grinned.  Elien was in for a bright, new tomorrow. He wished he could s
ay the same for Traisk!
