#2 of Dragon Rider


The wind whipped across the cliff top, blasting Eraj with cool morning wind. It chilled him so he found shelter behind a rock. Eriylia had still not returned. She had flown off to somewhere he didn't know and was yet to return. He still hadn't gotten over what had happened the previous night. He had to keep reminding himself that it had been real and that it wasn't a dream, but was it? He was so confused. That was why he couldn't wait for her return; he just had to ask her.

Four hours passed and she still hadn't returned. Eraj didn't want to attempt the walk down from the cliff, it would take hours and besides, he didn't need to go down by foot if Eriylia ever showed up, he could just ride on her back down to the basin below. It was sunset, and already the air had started to cool. Eraj rubbed his hands together to keep some warmth; he'd most likely need it.

The sun was just about to disappear from the horizon when Eraj heard a thudding sound. It was distant, but Eraj recognised the sound as dragon wings beating. He saw a dot appear on the horizon and watch as the light faded, the dot grow into a blob, and then, a dragon. It was Eriylia.

She landed rather hard on her hind legs.

"Where'd you go? I've been waiting here for ages" Eraj inquired.

"The answer to that question shall be told in due time" Eriylia smugly replied, leaving him hanging like she always did.

"That is so annoying" Eraj complained.

"What is?"

"You leaving me hanging, I ask you a question and you don't give an answer! Why?"

Eraj barely managed to control his temper.

"I don't have to explain all my actions. Some of the answers you seek I consider rather private" Eriylia explained while looking at the setting sun.

Eraj grunted another one of her dismissals.

"Come on, get on my back. We'd better go before it gets too dark'" Eriylia exclaimed as she looked at the setting sun.

She crouched and Eraj scrambled up her back and sat in his usual place. She rose and leapt off the edge of the cliff, spreading her wings at the last moment. Eraj felt the usual sense of uneasiness followed by sheer joy from the thrill of flying. Only a select few people had ever flown and he was one of them.

This particular flight was only short. Eriylia flew for about 10 minutes before descending and landing outside a cave, their home. Eraj leaped off her back and landed rather hard on his ankles, injuring him slightly. Eriylia helped him up and then entered the cave, Eraj followed. The interior of the cave was simple, there were a few treasures lying right at the back of the cave which they had collected over the years. It wasn't too much but was still treasure and Eraj ensured that these stayed where they belonged.

The rest of the cave was empty, except for a ledge to the right side where Eraj slept. Eriylia curled up beside the treasure and quickly began to dose off. Eraj, remembering his thoughts from earlier that day decided to ask Eriylia before she fell asleep.

"Eriylia, did what we do yesterday really happen? I mean, I don't remember"

Eriylia stayed silent. Eraj saw her grin slightly though he thought it might have been his imagination.

"Yes Eraj, we did you think we did" She replied, confusing him at first.

"Oh, okay then" Eraj replied, lying down and closing his eyes, not noticing a slight grin appear on Eriylia's face.

* * *

Eraj yawned. The cave was filled with light, it was morning. Eraj felt strange, as if we weren't the same person he'd fallen asleep as. He noticed he was in the centre of the cave. Puzzled, Eraj looked around. Eriylia was still curled up, she hadn't moved.

Eraj stretched and looked down at his hands, or where his hands should have been. They were talons. 'What the?' Eraj wondered to himself.

He looked back on himself and was shocked; he had somehow become a dragon.

Eraj examined himself; he was a dragon like Eriylia, but a different colour. Instead of being a blue like Eriylia, he was scarlet red. His wings were large and felt ungainly to him. His tail felt unusual too, he was not used to these things.

Eriylia woke up and saw Eraj struggle to his feet.

"What happened to me?" Eraj asked.

"You're a dragon, can't you tell?"

"No, I mean, how did I become like this?"

Eraj considered all the possibilities. None of the sensible options were possible. This had to be the result of magic.

"Now I'll answer yesterday's question. I went to see an old friend who said he knew how to manipulate magic. I asked him wether he could make you into a full dragon like you asked"

"I don't remember asking that" Eraj inquired.

"You did, you may have been subconscious but I, being the friend I am remembered this and when my friend asked, I replied yes" Eriylia replied.

"I see" Eraj replied, feeling a little uneasy.

"So, are you happy?" Eriylia asked in a polite term.

"Well, umm, I dunno. We'll have to see" Eraj replied.

"Come on then, let's go for a fly" Eriylia announced. Eraj didn't reply, he just walked out of the cave onto the plateau outside.

"Okay, you do know how to fly don't you?" Eriylia asked.

"Well, I know I have to flap my wings to stay up and steer with my tail" Eraj replied.

"Good, good. That's all you'll need for now, follow me"

With that, Eriylia leaped off the edge and circled just within sight. Eraj stepped forward and looked over the edge. It was a long drop to the ground. Closing his eyes, Eraj jumped off the edge and felt himself falling. Eraj spread his wings as quick as he could and suddenly stopped falling and started flying.

If Eraj had thought flying was fun before, he was wrong. Being a dragon and actually flying himself was far more enjoyable. Eriylia zipped past him, showing off. Eraj, not trusting his abilities yet followed Eriylia in a straight or curving pattern.

He followed her movements, trying to learn her techniques for flying. She kept telling him different things to do to reduce the required effort.

Eventually, they landed on a rocky ledge not too far from where they had been the night before. The ground was hard and in Eraj's opinion, uncomfortable. A bit further back from the edge, some grass had forced its way through grass in the rocks and made the ground a little softer. It was here that Eraj collapsed, slightly injuring his side.

Eriylia strode over and settled by his side.

"Are you enjoying your new form?" she teased.

"Yeah, it's great. I didn't know flying could be any more fun"

He was panting slightly from the flight but couldn't help but notice Eriylia watching him with a concerned expression.

"What?" he exclaimed.

"I need a breather okay?"

She locked her eyes with his.

"No, it's not that" Eriylia flicked her tail in annoyance, sending rocks flying.

"Then what is it?" he demanded while trying to be as calm as possible.

She turned her head away from him and looked away into the sunset.

Eraj couldn't hope but notice how nice her head and neck appeared when framed by the golden sunlight. Eraj felt a strange lurch in his stomach but didn't say anything about it.

Eraj held back his tongue from saying anything he might regret. He didn't want to alienate one another over simple words.

"Eraj..."

Eriylia didn't look at him but spoke as if she were ashamed.

"I want you to forget about what happened two days ago"

Eraj was surprised by this.

"What? Why?"

"It was not supposed to happen. I.....I was confused and....and got carried away"

She sounded as if she was sobbing. Eraj noted strain in her voice.

"But I didn't mind what happened...I loved it, I love you" Eraj tried to comfort her.

"That makes it all the worse. Things between dragons and their riders aren't meant to be that way".

Eraj thought for a moment.

"But I'm not just a rider anymore" Eraj referred to his current form.

"Nor are you a dragon, we're just not supposed to have that kind of relationship".

Eraj thought of something to do, something to correct their worsening relationship.

He lifted his tail and with the tip, stroked her back between her wings.

She shivered from the contact but otherwise did not respond.

"Hey, Eriylia...look at me"Eraj spoke softly.

Her head remained fixed away from him.

"Come on, look at me". He continued his stroking.

She turned her head to face him but kept her eyes averted away from him.

"Eriylia...I love you. I don't one small thing ruin our relationship permanently," Eraj spoke as softly as he could while still being heard.

"and that's not about to change".

He nuzzled her.

"Besides, what are you worried about?"

Eriylia shifted her position so that his tail no longer made contact with her hide.

"My actions have betrayed my feelings. I have tarnished what it means to be a dragon and a rider. I should leave and fly far away and hope all is forgotten".

Eraj was disturbed by this.

"You haven't changed anything, only what you think about yourself" Eraj continued to comfort her.

"Then what will you have me do? I must make up for this in someway to you" she sniffed. Eraj thought for the right response.

"You don't have to do anything; I just want our relationship to remain strong," he said.

"and promise me you won't worry like this again. It makes me worried" Eraj completed.

Eriylia rested her head against his.

"Alright, we'll do it like that then". She wrapped her tail around his. Eraj instinctively lowered a wing over her forming a living blanket.

"Oh and Eraj, thank you for being a good friend". She gave him a quick lick then rested her head on her fore claws beside him. Eraj went to reply but sensed he shouldn't say anymore. He lowered his head and rested it beside hers. With the sun going down, there was nothing more to do but sleep and wait for what morning would bring.

* * *

As the suns first rays broke above the horizon, Eraj woke and lifted his wing up and off Eriylia. He managed to wriggle his tail out of her embrace. She shifted but remained asleep as he got to his feet. He walked over to the edge of the cliff and leaped off; spreading his blood red wings and feeling them fill with the chilly morning breeze.

He didn't fly far; instead he remained close to the cliff and circled above it.

He took in the sun's rays for about a quarter of an hour before seeing Eriylia stir. He descended and made a rather unglamorous landing beside her just as she sat up on her haunches. He greeted her and sat down beside her.

"You feeling alright this morning?" he asked her.

"I'm fine Eraj, why?" Eriylia looked over at him and inhaled deeply.

"No reason. You just don't seem alright. Especially over our little ordeal last night".

"I don't want to be reminded of it okay?" she snapped but not overly aggressively.

Eraj grinned. He noticed an unusual scent drifting through the air.

It smelt rather odd and he couldn't pinpoint its location. The smell stirred him up and he felt an odd feeling in his loins, which he ignored.

Eriylia suddenly gasped and collapsed to the ground. Startled, Eraj rushed to where she lay squirming on the ground.

"Eriylia!" He shouted.

"Are you okay? What's happening?"

She didn't respond. She continued to shake and groan as wave after wave of pain hit her.

Eraj leaned over her.

"Eriylia, speak to me!"

Suddenly, as quickly as they had started, the waves of pain stopped.

Eriylia however remained panting and shaking on the ground.

"Come on Eriylia, what just happened?"

He watched her closely as she tried to stand, but fell back down. Without needing to be told, Eraj stepped forward and allowed Eriylia to use him to lean against as she tried again to get back onto her feet. This time, she succeeded.

"I'm fine, you can move now" she sounded exhausted.

"What was that just then?" Eraj asked, wanting to know what had caused the pain.

"Nothing, it was nothing" Eraj instantly knew she was hiding something important.

Not wanting to pursue the matter, Eraj accepted her response but continued to watch her closely.

"Come, follow me. We should move to somewhere more comfortable" Eriylia seemed to have recovered but he could tell by her voice she was distressed by the recent ordeal.

Without comment or hesitation, Eraj followed her to the edge where they both took flight and flew in formation towards the ocean.

They settled on a grassy hill which afforded a spectacular view of the rocky coastline in each direction. Eraj gasped as he saw the sight.

"This is where I come to relax and think" Eriylia stated, following Eraj's gaze. She lay down on the grass and motioned for Eraj to do the same. He did and was relieved that the ground was soft and comfortable, although it was a little damp.

"Eraj, what is our future together? We are more than friends now?"

Eraj felt her body rub against his side and he smelt that scent again. It must be coming from Eriylia he thought to himself.

Eraj thought about her question.

"I don't know. I agree we're more then friends but do you want our relationship to go to the next level?"

Eraj recognised her feelings for him as soon as she responded;

"Yes Eraj, I do".

Eraj hadn't been expecting this response although he had thought it might happen.

"So, you want us to...to be mates?" Eraj continued his questions.

"Again Eraj, yes. We've already taken the first step and now we are as close as we're going to get species-wise" Eriylia grinned and licked him across the cheek.

At the same time, Eraj felt a liquid running across his sheath. The liquid was warm and had a really strong odour. The same odour he had smelt earlier. He felt his cock stir as the juices continued to run across his sheath and begin to extend.

Eraj groaned and Eriylia looked at him with concern before licking him again. This time, she moved her tongue to his lips and forced them apart slightly. Eriylia moved her tongue about in Eraj's mouth and Eraj instinctively responded by doing the same to her.

Their 'kiss' went on for ages. The whole time, Eriylia's juices continued to run across Eraj's enlarging cock. Eraj moved his tail and felt along Eriylia's back. Slowly, he moved it further down her back to her hips, where he spent a few moments caressing her before moving down and feeling the entrance to her vagina.

Eriylia gasped from the first touch and momentarily withdrew from Eraj before resuming their kiss. Eraj feeling brave pushed his tail slightly and felt the folds of skin around Eriylia's cunt beginning to part. She moaned as he pushed his deeper, feeling her moist cavern clamp tightly on his tail. Rather than thrusting, Eraj teased her pussy by not pushing his tail in all the way and let her juices flow. After a while, he withdrew his tail and without speaking, Eriylia ended their kiss.

"You ready to continue?" Eraj asked playfully as he started to move behind her.

"Now more than ever" Eriylia pleaded.

Eraj grunted and moved up her back, until he was astride her. He felt his cock press against the entrance to her cunt but refrained from pushing it in. Instead, he lowered his head beside Eriylia's head and gave her a quick lick on the snout.

By wordless consent, Eraj began to move his hips forward and felt the head of his massive member enter Eriylia. She gasped again and involuntarily squirmed. Eraj halted his movement and held himself still until she stopped moving before continuing to push slowly deeper into her.

Eriylia's juices kept flowing and made the entry easy. His cock slid into her without a problem. Eraj moaned as he felt his hips make contact with Eriylia's rear. Eriylia clamped her vaginal muscles tightly on Eraj's cock, trying to give him the same pleasure he was giving her. She had never felt so full before, even when Eraj had fucked her as a human. This had no comparison. It was just pure heaven.

Eraj remained still for a few minutes before beginning to withdraw. He pulled out as slowly as he could; savouring the pleasure he was receiving from Eriylia's vaginal muscles. Eraj pulled out all of his now slick cock except for the head before beginning to push back in again. Eriylia moaned underneath him and he felt more of her juices seep out of her pussy and run down their entangled legs.

Thrust after thrust, Eriylia would moan and more juices would escape, quickly soaking the grass on the hill. Her juices combined with Eraj's pre-cum made her cunt extremely wet and slippery, allowing Eraj to slowly build up the speed he put into his thrusts. As he thrust harder and deeper, Eriylia began to bounce underneath him.

Determined to give her as much pleasure as possible, Eraj would withdrew most of his cock before slamming it back into her as deeply as possible. He could tell he was succeeding because Eriylia's moans became more and more frequent and her clenching became more rapid. She started pushing back against Eraj every time he shoved, allowing for deeper penetration.

Eraj felt himself getting closer to ejaculation so he began to thrust furiously into her. Using his jaws, he gripped around her neck and tasted blood when his teeth sunk in too deeply. Eriylia noticed the pain but was too enthralled by the pleasure she was receiving to care. Eriylia's pussy began to make those sloppy sucking noises again as Eraj's massive cock moved in and out of her faster and faster. Eventually,

Eriylia could take no more and roared in pleasure as she orgasmed. Her juices flowed rapidly, soaking Eraj's lower body. Eriylia's muscles clamped tightly on Eraj's cock, tight enough to make him feel as if it was being crushed. Eriylia fell limp and allowed Eraj to get his cock even deeper into her. His cock became a blur as his hips swayed faster and faster. He continued in this fashion for a few more minutes before finally not being able to take anymore. With a final roar, Eraj thrust as deep and as hard as he could.

Eriylia roared in time with Eraj as she felt his seed pump deep into her womb. Even though he had came, Eraj continued to thrust for a further five minutes until he was sure there was no more cum left inside him. He collapsed onto his side next to Eriylia with his cock still firmly gripped by Eriylia's cunt muscles. Feeling drowsy, Eraj fell quickly to sleep.

* * *

He awoke just as the sun was beginning to set. He noted that his limp cock was still deep within Eriylia. She was watching him as he looked up at her.

"You going to let go of my cock or not?" Eraj joked.

Eriylia sighed. She didn't say anything but Eraj felt her muscles loosen and allow his cock to slither out. As it withdrew back into its sheath, mixed cum and Eriylia's juices poured out of her cunt and flowed onto the ground where it formed a pool.

"So, how was it? What do you think?" Eraj asked.

"It was wonderful" she began.

"I have never felt such pleasure before like that you gave me" she sounded pleased and roared again. Eraj was happy that she was happy.

"I am of the same opinion" Eraj agreed.

Eraj and Eriylia sat there admiring the sunset for a few minutes before Eraj spoke;

"Well if that's what I get just for being a friend to you, I can wait to find out what I get for being a mate!"
