The morning sun shining through the window woke her up and she grumbled, opening her eyes a little bit and staring grumpily at the sun. Colline had already gone, presumably to get ready for their trip, but Railen was still asleep. Giving him a gentle kiss, Ara slid out from under his warm, protective arms and began slipping into her robe. When she was done, she began working her hair into the complicated knot on the top of her forehead, leaving the traditional bit out to swing in a ponytail and brush against her neck. When she was finished, she knelt beside the bed, trailing a hand along Railens cheek. "Time to wake up, my love."

His eyes opened after a few minutes and he smiled as he looked over at her. "Mmm...morning little one," he said sleepily and kissed her softly. "Your hair looks nice," he smirked as he eyed her, standing up after a few moments. "You almost ready?" He asked with a yawn, "I won't take long to pack," he said with a nod stretching and beginning to pack.

Ara nodded as she stood up. "I'm ready, I don't have anything to bring besides myself and you." She winked at him and patted his cheek. "I'll meet you downstairs." Kissing his nose, she danced out the door and downstairs. In the courtyard, Colline was arguing with Fang while a bored looking human mage lounged nearby. "I TOLD you Fang, they're bringing you along. Why won't you believe me?" Fang growled at the little gnome, and they both looked up to see Ara. "Thank god, Ara. Tell this... MUTT that you're bringing him! He won't believe me." Fang glared at the gnome but tilted his head questioningly at Ara. She laughed and patted Fang's head. "Of course we're taking you. How could we leave you behind?"

A bag over his shoulder Railen tilted his head curiously at the girls and Fang, shaking his head a little. "Want me to get you two a room? Or maybe a stable?" He teased as he gave Ara a wink and looked to the mage. "You ready to transport us then," Railen said eyeing the mage some as he adjusted the large sword on his back, dressed in his plate armor that he had cleaned up some, though it was still scarred and battered.

The mage nodded, pushing off the post he'd been leaning against and moving towards the group. "All you have to do is touch the swirly stuff and you'll be there." He said, closing his eyes and extending his hands. A moment later, a swirly blue and purple portal appeared in front of them. Colline trotted through immediately, followed by Fang. Ara turned to Railen and kissed him. "See you on the other side." She said with a wink, then twirled through the portal. On the other side, Ara was pleased to find that the mage had thoughtfully transported them to just outside of the city gates, not directly inside the city. Directly inside would have been hard to explain to people.

Railen appeared right behind her, his eyes scanning the walls before him warily. He was often cautious so it wasn't a new look for him. Fang was watching Colline, giving a little sniff, as he prowled around the party carefully, looking for anyone who might be coming, Railen saying nothing as he watched the wolf quietly. "Well...we are here."

Ara felt suddenly tense as she realized once again the enormity of the sacrifice Railen had made for her coming here. "Yes... yes we are." She said softly. "Okay. Fang, you stay back behind us. Lets not scare the guards out of their wits... you're very intimidating, big guy. Colline, I want you up front with us, another Alliance member will reassure the guards further. Railen, stay a little bit behind me... I want to be able to show myself before you." Her tone was authoritave, but she bit her bottom lip slightly as she began to move forward. Up ahead, the two guards in front of the gate didn't flinch when Ara appeared out of the foggy morning, but when Railen appeared just behind her, their polearms shot up. "Wait." Ara said commandingly, raising one small hand. The guards eyed her, her hair, and her stance, and the weapons slowly lowered to the ground. "This is not a Horde member. He is an independant mercenary, here on my sponsorship. You WILL let him pass." The guards looked at each other, at Railen and Colline, and at the huge wolf behind them, and gulped, nodding and opening the gates for them.

Railen had stood quietly behind the girl, his arms folded over his chest some as he raised his eyebrows at the girl, watching the guards bow and scrape away, grinning some. "Hmph...some guards, scared of a little girl like you," he said teasingly, but soft enough only she heard. "I expect your parent's aren't as spineless as them," he said eyeing the guards. Apparently his not being a horde member didn't mean he liked all of those in the alliance.

Ara gulped slightly. "No... no they aren't." She said softly. "I think we'd better approach my father first... I know where he normally is at this time of day." She said, twining her arm through his and leading him inside the city. The Draenai bustling about their business stopped and stared at the couple as they passed, whispers forming in their wake. A Draenai forming an alliance with a member of another species was not unheard of, but an orc? And a large, battle scarred Orc at that. Ara ignored the stares and whispers, leading Railen through the city towards the hub. Taking a left just before the center, she entered a large courtyard filled with practice dummies and targets studded with arrows. A lone Draenai paladin was whaling away at one of the practice dummies with a massive mace. If the practice dummy had been a real person, it would have been dead from just one of the massive blows descending on it. Ara had not been lying about her father, he was just as big and broadshouldered as Railen. He was about the same age too, as his face was battlescared and full of wisdom that only comes from battlefields and many harsh winters. Ara let go of Railen and stepped forward slowly. "Father?" She called softly.

The Draenai started, then turned slowly. "...Ara?" He said uncertainly, his eyes disbelieving. "ARA!" He called happily, stepping forward and sweeping his daughter into a crushing hug. "Andras told us you were dead..." her father said after a moment, pulling back to stare into her eyes wonderingly. Ara wiggled out of his arms and backed up to where Railen was standing. "Yes well.. Andras foolishly thought that was better than telling you the truth." She said softly, once again winding her arm through Railen's. Her father noticed the Orc warrior for the first time and tensed, then looked down at their arms twined together and Ara's other hand resting on Railen's shoulder. His eyes bugged out and he turned rather purple, inhaling a deep breath. "Give him a moment..." Ara said warily, staring at her father intently. Her father was spluttering, his eyes glaring at the couple. In a moment, however, he began to calm down and his eyes began studying Railen. Noting the armour, the battlescars, and the huge muscles, her father slowly calmed. After another long moment, he stepped forward hesitantly, offering Railen one large blue hand. "Well... I never did want her to end up with a wimp like Arathon." He said gruffly.

Railen watched the large warrior sizing him up some, and for a moment wondered if it would end up coming to blows. It would not have been a pretty fight if it did, the entire place would likely be trashed, and he didn't want to go and kill Ara's father the day he met him. He never believed he would lose a fight he got in, it was how he seemed to work, but as the other man calmed Railen clasped his hand in his. "Yes, well no worry of that," he said gruffly giving a small shrug. "We would have come sooner but I had to take care of some business with the Company real quick," he said with a shrug, glancing down at Ara some.

Ara's face was relieved, and she smiled thankfully at her father, who was still studying Railen. "You said company, did you? That would be the Bloodied Company, am I correct? I've heard about your exploits." His tone didn't reveal whether that was a good thing or a bad thing, but he continued studying Railen and Ara, then winced slightly. "Ow. Uhm... Ara, I'd lay a bet that your mother is approaching, as I suddenly have a splitting headache." He grumbled, winking at his daughter. Ara took a deep breath. "Now comes the hard part." She mumbled, turning around. A shorter Draenai woman, dressed in regal robes and followed by two hovering maids was trotting across the courtyard to them. "It's true!" She called, coming to a stop. "You're alive, Ara!" She smiled at her daughter, then just like her husband, noticed the tall Orc standing beside her. Her eyes traveled downards to Ara snuggled against his side, and she paled. "Oh." She said simply.

Ara's mother was quite breathtaking, having passed most of her features on to her daughter. She too had delicate horns, pale blue skin and small features. Her tail had a gold ring clasped around the base of the tail, and she swished it nervously. "Mother, this is Railen. He's my... uhm... we're together." Ara finished lamely. "Yes my dear, I assumed that." Her mother said calmly. She studied Railen with a critical eye, judging his appearance. "Well." She said softly. "You could have done worse my dear. Railen, is it? Would you like something to drink? Our home is nearby." Ara breathed a sigh of relief, just as another voice sounded behind her, a high pitched, arrogant voice. "Araminta, my love!" Ara winced and mumbled a word that had her mother gasping. "Oh no." She moaned, not wanting to turn around.

Ara turned slowly, holding onto Railen tightly. "Hello Arathon." She said between clenched teeth. Her father rumbled his dissaproval from behind her, and Fang, still trailing along nearby, snarled softly. The Draenai approaching them was just as Ara had described him... wimpy. Thin and only a bit taller than Ara herself, he wore elegant robes that swept the floor as he walked. He looked like he'd never seen a day of work, his hands soft without a hint of callouses and his face still softly rounded with babyfat. If it wasn't for the scatterings of a beard along his chin, he would have easily been mistaken for a girl. Trotting up to the group, he eyed Ara with dissapproval. "Ara, you have left your family rather worried about you. Where on earth have you been?"

He was pointedly ignoring the Orc beside her. Ara frowned. "I've been with Railen. I don't believe you two have met. Railen is my... suitor now. And since I vastly prefer him to you, I'm sorry to say you are not welcome as a potential mate any longer." Her mother murmured her approval at the girls' politeness, her father grumbled something about telling the kid to fuck off. Ara's mother smacked him. Arathon took a step back, then his eyes flamed with anger. "Listen here you little whore, you will NOT embarras me by... dumping me for some Orc. Now, I don't care who you've been off spreading your legs for, you are home now and you will act like the royal blood you are instead of some common hussy." Ara's father started forward at the words, his teeth baring in a snarl, but Ara's mother restrained him. A crowd was beginning to form around the small group.

At meeting Ara's mother he couldn't help but glance over her some, and then Ara. If he hadn't had met Ara...well...the woman was quite pretty, though he had to give Ara the upper hand when it came to looks. She was younger and quite a fiesty little thing, much more his style. He stopped letting his mind wander and focused a bit more, "Uh no...not quite thirsty yet," he said quietly before trailing off, hearing Ara grumble something about suitor and looking to the small man approaching them, watching as he listened to what the man said.

Railen simply smiled broadly as if not hearing what the merchant had said and took a step forward, until his hand was quickly around the other draenai's throat, easily lifting the man off his feet so he could look him in the eye. "I'm sorry," he said with the same smile, "I didn't quite catch that last part," he said softly, squeezing some on the mans collarbone, not enough to hurt him yet. "Well? I am waiting to hear what it was you said," he said softly.

Ara's mother gasped but her father chuckled, obviously enjoying the show. The crowd gasped, but nobody ventured forward to stop the exchange, even the few guards that were among the watchers. Nobody wanted to tangle with the large Orc. Arathon gasped for air, kicking his hooves. "You will put me down this instant, sir! I will not stand for this! That girl is mine! You will put me down and release any claim you have on her. What could an Orc like you offer her besides carnal delights?" Ara had one hand over her mouth, but she was not moving to stop the exchange either, simply watching as Railen held the other Draenai kicking above the floor.

"Oh, I will put you down boy," Railen said quietly, heaving the mans body and throwing him hard across the training yard into one of the training dummies. Grinning a little he drew the massive sword with one hand, resting the blade against the mans throat, "Not a smart man for a merchant...it is a wonder you know how to do numbers to get business," he said quietly. "If you beg Ara she might not let me slit your throat like the little cow you are," he said, not holding the blade very tightly allowing the blades weight alone practically draw blood along the mans neck.

Ara's father saw the guards tense and start forward a bit at the exchange and he glared at them. "You will stay where you are. As a paladin of the Naaru, I declare this man as my second, doing what I should have done long ago." The guards subsided gently, just as two other broad shouldered Draenai pushed through the crowd. "Ara!" They called, their faces, exactly alike, bearing the exact same smile. "Lorre! Karre!" Ara exclaimed, running forward to give her two twin brothers a hug. The two warriors gave her a quick hug, then looked over their small sisters head. "Damn! Someone got to Arathon before we could. He's been calling you a whore all over town since he heard you got back with an Orc. Is that your new suitor, little sister? I like him already." Arathon was obviously terrified but he wasn't giving in to the Orc. "I wouldn't beg that little slut for anything. If you kill me, you'll be run out of town and she'll never be able to come back. She's just a whore anyway, spreading her legs for some filthy orc." Ara had moved to Railens side, and her eyes flashed at the filthy orc comment. "Say what you will about me." She said calmly. "But you will NOT insult the man I love." Her words were punctuated by her hand shooting forward, a stream of ice shooting from it to Arathon's crotch region. He let out a wail, his hands scrabbling at his now frozen privates. "You should probably get that looked at." Ara said disdainfully. "Come on, Railen. Let's leave him to cry himself to sleep."

Railen gave a little snarl, "If we must," he muttered, the blade 'slipping' as the draenai squirmed and took half his tail off as Railen scraped the blade along the ground, swinging it up to scabbard on his back as he put a hand on Ara's back, letting her lead him where she would, glancing back at the man on the ground with a grin and shook his head some. He had to remind himself not to get on Ara's bad side...too much.

Her father was grinning broadly, her mother trying to hold back her displeasure at the scene. The crowd began to dissapate, two of the guards moving forward to drag the whimpering draenai away. Ara's parents began leading the way towards their home, with her two twin warrior brothers flanking the couple. "So Railen, right? Got any room for two big burly warriors in your company?" One of the twins asked, grinning at their little sister. "After all, someone's gotta watch over the midget. Don't get me wrong, you look like a capable guy, but she's a full time job." The other said. "Hey Karre, remember the time she fell in the pond when she was trying to catch a butterfly? And she squealed about drowning and then realized it was only 6 inches deep?" The twins exploded into guffaws, Ara turning beet red and glaring at her brothers. "I'm going to HURT YOU." She hissed at them.

Railen grinned a little as he looked down to Ara, obviously not looking too surprised. "She has managed to get herself in trouble a bit worse than a few inches of water a number of times by now, but I have picked her out by the scruff of her neck so far," he said still looking amused. "However, if you want to join my Company I wouldn't say no...but it is not a place like this. The Company is much more...eventful," he said quietly, "But if you can handle it, I will think about it," he said watching Ara a little.

Her two twin brothers grinned. "Oh don't worry, we like action. There isn't enough of it around here." Ara's father looked ambivalent about the idea, but Ara's mother was obviously displeased at the idea of her daughter and two of her sons running off with the Orc. Ara looked happy, though, she was obviously fond of her twin brothers, and they certainly looked capable enough. A tall Draenai woman moved out of the crowd, running towards Ara. "Ara!" She called happily, and Ara turned with a smile. "Kaylen!" She said, wrapping her arms around the taller Draenai. This female wasn't nearly as pretty as Araminta, but had a more developed body. Looking up at the Orc, she smiled. "I'm Ara's friend Kaylen, hello. I'm going to steal her away for a bit, the twins will keep you company." Before Ara could protest, the other female yanked her away. Ara threw back a fleeting "I'll be back soon I love you be goooood" as she was pulled away. The twins grinned at Railen. "Well, you're practically a member of the family, time to show you the family weapon collection." They had reached the home by this time, and the twins directed Railen towards a room full of weapons from wall to ceiling, everything from swords to maces to daggers to bows, all gleaming and lovingly polished.

Railen frowned at seeing Ara whisked away so quickly but sighed a little and just followed the twins. He never could keep track of that girl. Looking over the weapons he shrugged a little as he looked them over, lifting one of the swords which looked little more than a dagger in his hands. "Good craftsmenship," he agreed as he set it down, "But they still look like they would break if you swing 'em good and hard," he grinned as he patted the massive blade on his back, "I much prefer this beaten up old thing," he said as he looked around the manor some. The city was much bigger than his clans hold.

Ara's father shouldered his way into the room, hanging his massive mace up on the wall on some hooks that groaned slightly with its weight. He looked at Railen, clapping a large hand on his back. "So. Let's talk about Ara's dowry. I know the two of you are not wed, but you're obviously going to be taking care of her from now on, and that's good enough for me. I also can see you're perfectly capable of taking care of her yourself, but she does have a proper dowry and it would be a shame to let it go to waste. Let's see... I believe it was 3000 gold peices, some rich cloths and such and two battle Eleks. Also, Ara's own mount will be wanting to go with her, she's been missing her terribly." A few houses down, Ara was sitting down with her friend for a drink. "Ale?" Kaylen asked. "Just tea, please." Ara said. "I haven't really been feeling a hundred percent recently, I don't think ale would help." She said with a smile.

Kaylen tilted her head slightly, then grinned. "I bet I know what it is. Here, let me check." Darting over, the draenai laid a hand on Ara's stomach. "Kaylen, what on earth are you doing?" Ara asked bewilderedly. "Shhh and let the priest work." Kaylen said, closing her eyes and concentrating. Removing her hand after a moment, she grinned at Ara. "You, my dear, are pregnant." Ara stared at Kaylen, rather stunned. "What? No I'm not! I've only been with Railen for three or four weeks, you couldn't possibly be able to tell this soon." Kaylen grinned. "Wrong. I can tell this soon. Besides, when was the last time you had... you know?" Ara blinked and stuttered. "Well, I... I... I havent since I met him." She said slowly. "Well, there you go. You'll start to show a little in about a month. I'm so happy for you!" Kaylen hugged Ara, who was still busy staring into her tea, rather stunned.

"Dowry?" He gave an amused look as he shrugged some, "I can't say three thousand gold will not be of some use, as for her mount," he gave an amused grin, "I am sure Ara has been missing her. She gets along with Fang quite well," he said motioning to the large wolf. "Where did she go off to anyway," he asked tilting his head, "She seems to get kidnapped by everyone," he muttered, more to himself than her father.

"Kaylen will bring her back soon enough." Her father said with a smile, escorting him inside. Her mother had pitchers of ale ready for everyone, and the twins began trying to impress Railen with their battle stories. Some weren't half bad, but most were nothing compared to the stories Railen could tell. About an hour later, Ara walked back inside, a rather absent look on her face. She slid down to sit next to Railen, kissing him on the cheek. She'd tell him when the time was right. The day passed rather quickly, her father took them on a tour of the Exodar. Only a few people stared this time, for the most part they left them alone. The news had already spread and a few smiles were shot their way. By the end of the day, Ara was tired, her eyelids drooping as she leaned against Railen. "How long were you planning to stay?" Her father asked curiously. "I figured we'd leave in the morning." Ara said with a yawn. "Perfect. Your mother is preparing your old room for you two, my dear. You know where it is." Ara nodded and stood, tugging on Railen's hand. She led him down the hall to a rather large bedroom, rivaling their room back at the fort in its richness. Closing the door behind them, Ara wrapped her arms around Railen. "Thank you."

"Not a problem," he said softly, having been quiet much of the day, amused by her brothers for most of the day. He hadn't shared many of his stories, mostly the more milder of them. Seeing her room he looked fairly impressed as he started to undress for bed, Colline in another room, if she hadn't passed out from the twins playing drinking games with her. Fang had gone off into the stables to sleep. "So, you plan on leaving tomorrow?" He tilted his head some, "I have no problem staying, and I don't particularly have anything else to do," he said not sure why she wanted to be gone so soon as he laid in her bed liking the feel of silk against him. He had pulled her down next to him kissing her softly. "So, how was being with your friend then? Fun?"

She slowly slipped out of her robes and slid into bed beside him. "I love my family, but there isn't much reason to stay. I'm beginning to miss the snows of home, too, although I never thought I'd say that." She snuggled against him. "My friend was... interesting." She muttered. Well, now was as good a time as any. "Uhm, Railen?" She raised her head, sitting up in bed next to him. "I'm... that is to say.... you're... I found out..." She stuttered, then took a deep breath. "You're going to be a daddy." She said softly, peeking at him from under her eyelashes. She hoped he would take the news well, after all he had said he wanted children, hadn't he?

"You're Pregnant? How can you know that?" He looked confused, but happy, as he sat up giving her a kiss. True, he already was a dad, a few bastards here and there, some Ara's age but...he had never actually known them, except for seeing them once or twice, but nothing more. "You certainly don't look it," he mused as he rubbed her belly gently, looking her over some as he pulled her into his lap, kissing her nose gently.

She blushed happily as his reaction told her he was happy. "Kaylen told me, she's a priest. You must have bred me the first night you took me for her to know this fast. She says I'll start to show in about a month." She smiled, resting her hand on top of his on her stomach. "You're going to be a daddy." She repeated softly, grinning widely, resting her forehead against his. "Happy?" she asked after a moment.

"Of coarse I am," he promised her as he nibbled at her gently, his forehead pressing back against hers. "Mmm...am I going to get a pretty little girl like you you think? Or a boy?" He tilted his head curiously, not knowing what the priest could read. "Well, you at least certainly seem happy about this though," he said rubbing her but at the base of her tail, relaxing under her. He certainly wasn't expecting this but...he certainly didn't mind.

She laughed. "Now that IS too soon to tell." She said with a grin. "You might even get twins, they do run in the family." She sighed happily, relaxing against him. "Kaylen said it might be a tough birth, and that if we need her when it's time, she'll come to the hold. She specializes in births, so it would probably be a good idea." She nuzzled him gently. "I'd rather keep this from my family if you don't mind, that might be a bit much to spring on them all at once. We'll tell my brothers once they're back at the hold.... you don't mind them coming along, do you? They really are fantastic warriors, Father wouldn't have it any other way."

"Really? You think your family might get surprised?" He teased. "There is nothing that says 'Hi, I am fucking your daughter,' like getting her pregnant," he said softly, tugging at her tail a little with an amused smile. "And I hear Fang will have a friend, seeing you won't let him at your furred snatch," he said sticking his tongue out at her playfully.

She laughed at his antics. "Yes, that is what I was afraid of them thinking if I told them. Right now they're both glossing over that fact, but if we told them..." she trailed off and shuddered. "My mom would probably faint. And yes, I'm going to take Delica with me, but uhm... she and fang aren't exactly... compatible. She's a Talbuk. You know, the tall gazelle's with the horns? Father bought her for me when I was younger because her horns were the same color as mine." She shook her head. "She's a graceful little thing, but like I said... Fang might have to get his loving elsewhere." She snuggled against Railen,one hand still on her stomach. She still couldn't believe a tiny life was growing in there.

He laughed a little, "I was only teasing, all Fang needs is your loving and he will keep happy," he said loving to tease the girl, his big hand moving to her belly, cupping it gently as he looked down at her. He wondered how long these children would live...the three he had with Rosa had not lived past three but...he shrugged some. Ara would take care of the kids well he knew.

Ara sighed, looking down at his hand. "I hope we have a boy." She said softly. "A boy so you can have a little warrior following you around." She said with a grin. "Although.... I would like a girl as well to see how well she has you wrapped around her little finger. She'll be such a Daddy's girl, and you'll spoil her rotten." Ara laughed at the thought. "Well, I guess we'll just have to have several." She said decidedly, licking Railen's chin. "That way we can have both!"

"Well I don't mind spoiling a pretty girl if she looks anything like you," he said softly laughing as she licked him. "Oh...speaking of spoiling, your father gave me your dowry," he said shrugging some. "Apparently your virginity had a lot of money riding on it," he teased, pushing his finger on her slit some teasingly. "Only reason I bedded you," he joked with a wink.

Ara grinned. "Of course that's the only reason, you knew I had a huge dowry." She smacked him with a grin, then softened. "He likes you. He wouldn't have given it away if he didn't think we were staying together, and he wouldn't be letting us stay together if he didn't like you. I'm glad they all accepted you so well. Except for Andras, of course. Mother said he was away on business, I have a feeling he just didn't want to see me. He's rather prejudiced against the Horde, when he very young he was courting a young Draenai girl who lived in Stormwind. She was killed in a Horde attack, and ever since then..." She shook her head. "He'll come around eventually."

"Ah, well that is a shame," he said with a nod, kissing her softly. "I am glad you didn't get yourself killed in a raid though...however you almost were an undeads whore so...I guess had I not come along you might have preferred death," he said giving her bottom another playful squeeze as he relaxed against the pillows, his hands moving up and down her back slowly. He didn't mind being here so much, he usually stayed in taverns when in Alliance cities.

She shuddered, thinking of the fate she had almost suffered at the hands of General Marrowbone's company. "Are you ever going to extract revenge on him for the pass attack? You and the company killed most of his men, but he was not there... he must have stayed behind with a small force just in case they lost at the pass. He still owes you gold, too." She said grimly. "And I'd like to be there if you DO collect, so I can blast off whatever genitals he has remaining."

"We have to keep you away from genitels," he teased, remembering her suitor being frozen. "Makes me worry should I ever make you upset what you will do to me," he said and gave her a look. "If you ever do try though I am going to put you over my lap and spank you like a little girl," he teased kissign her softly, "But I expect that you will just like that.

"Probably." She admitted. "But unless you stick that massive tool of yours in something that is not me, I don't imagine you will upset me much." She snuggled against his side, burrowing her head into his shoulder. "Well, this has been a long day. We met my parents, recruited my brothers, and I found out we've got a family on the way." She kissed his nose with a grin. "I think that merits a good nights sleep... unless you had something else in mind." She said with a grin.

"I am fine with going to bed, but it is up to you if you want to play with your 'massive tool'," he teased kissing her some. "And so far I have kept it out of plenty of opportunities...even when we let others come play with you...then again I doubt Colline would appreciate it much if I tried to stick her...might not be able to get her off," he said with a wink.

Ara sighed slightly. "Yes, that has been bothering me a bit. I'm not terribly keen on letting you fuck anything else, yet you let Colline have fun with me. It's a bit one sided, and I do feel a bit bad. I can promise you, though, that I will never willingly let any other man inside any of your pets holes. They are for you alone. And you're right, you have been good, especially when Rosa was tempting you. I'm proud of you." She said with a grin, reaching down to rub him gently.

He smiled at her compliments giving a small laugh, "Well, I don't mind you having your play," he told her kissing her forehead, "As long as it is no men," Railen said shrugging some. "No need to feel bad about Colline, she has been stuck with dwarves and her father, I am sure she is glad to have you," he winked. He gave a pleased grown at her rubs, giving her ass a small squeeze.

She moved down his body and grinned at him, reaching down. She quickly stroked him to full hardness, then winked up at him. "Want to try something a little new?" She said with a grin. She licked his entire length gently, getting him nice and wet with her saliva, then moved back up his body just a bit until her soft breasts were on either side of him. Reaching down, she pressed the globes of flesh around him and begin moving up and down, his wet shaft sliding easily between her breasts.

"Mmm, I like this new idea of yours," he said softly, pressing up into her fleshy little breasts, his precum adding to the slickness of her breasts as his rough hands moved down to stroke through her hair. "For such an innocent little girl," he said with a smile, "Where did you learn these things you do," Railen teased, pressing his cock up into her movements.

Ara continued letting him fuck the hot little valley between her breasts. "I went to a lot of parties, and they were all dull, all the girls used to sit in the back and talk about the latest naughty thing they'd done. I was always the silent one... but I learned a lot." She said with a smile. Leaning down, she stuck out her tongue and licked the head of his shaft everytime it came through her breasts, making him even wetter and easier to slide through.

"God damn girl...mmm I will have to meet the girls some time," he joked, pushing his cock to her lips and tongue as he felt himself growing slicker, movign faster and faster between her breasts. It felt so damned good, he couldn't help but pound up into the girls breasts, more cum forming at the tip of his cock, "That's it little one," he snarled.

She moaned, one hand reaching down to play with herself, running her little hand over her slit and dipping a few fingers inside. She began taking what she could of him inside her mouth everytime he came through, and she began rolling her breasts against his cock instead of simply holding them still for him to fuck. "Mmm Railen, I love how you taste." She moaned, leaning down and swirling her tongue along the head of his cock, licking away a glob of precum that had appeared.

"Well baby you get as much as you want," he said as he moved faster into her tits now. Reaching down he grabbed her horn roughly and sped up groaning as his cock finally fountained globs of cum up into her face and onto her chest, groaning as he continued to cum on her sexy little body, grinning as the last bit of cum dripped from his cock.

She immediately set to work cleaning him off, and then began on herself, wiping the cum onto her hands and licking it off. It was a sexy sight, her on her knees in front of him, cum dripping off her face and chest, and her licking it off her fingers. She aimed a wink at him. "When we get back tomorrow, you're going to give me the fucking of a lifetime, we need to get as much in as possible while we still can. Kaylen said, and I quote "tell that massive orc of yours that he can spear you as much as he wants for the next six months, but after that, no more." Ara shook her head. "She's an odd one, but a good friend. And don't worry, I'll still keep you entertained during the last few months... there's plenty of other things you can do to me." She winked at Railen sexily. "Now, sleepy time." She said, having finished her cleaning. Snuggling against him, she did not awaken until morning when she was jolted awake by alarms. She yanked one of the blankets up to cover herself as she went to the door, opening it and snagging one of the twins as they rushed past. "What's going on?" She asked. "Exodar is under attack by the horde. Woohoo!" The twin grabbed his sword from near the door and ran out of the house, joining his brother in racing towards the gate.

"Three months?" He groaned softly as he laid back, his eyes looking her over. Three months, well that would indeed be a true test, but... He just nodded as she said sleepy time and held her. He stayed awake a little longer and then finally fell asleep. He jumped up as the alarms rang, and gave an amused look toward her opening the door in just a blanket. He grabbed his sword from nearby, having time only to pull on his pants as he moved out the door, "Stay here love," he gripped his sword as he looked outside, following the twins after catching up to them.

"Hey! You get back here and let the guards take care of it!" She shrieked after him. When he didn't turn she stomped her foot. "Ooooo I am going to hurt that man..." She hissed. He wasn't about to go and get himself killed, not when she knew they had a baby on the way. A small part of her mind told her 'You know, he did just fine before you came along' but she told that part to shutup. She should be fighting by his side, not sitting and biting her nails. Pulling on her robes hastily, she ran into the weapons room, grabbing a rather large staff. She was quite good with a polearm, her father had taught her. Her mother came running into the room. "Ara, where on EARTH do you think you are going? Stay here where it's safe, child!" "Not gonna happen, mother." Ara said grimly. Trotting outside, she looked towards the family stables to one side and whistled. Fang came running out... but so did a beautiful white Talbuk with purplish blue hooves and horns. The Talbuk bleated a happy greating, and raced towards Ara, not stopping. Ara, having grown up with the animal, waited until just the right moment then reached up, grabbing one of the Talbuks horns and swinging herself aboard. She raced towards the front gates, Fang loping along beside her, and she searched in vain for Railen... he must have already made it to the front.

Railen had made it to the gates easily enough where arrows were pouring in on the defenders, as well as shaman magic, holy magic firing back at the attackers. Railen looked out to the raiders and frowned deeply. He noticed the banners over the army, Marrowbone seemed to have continued his raid even without the Company's help, and moved quite quickly at that. He pulled the two handed sword from his back and looked to Ara's brothers some, and then back at the army moving toward the gates. this was likely to get quite bloody by the looks.

Ara trotted along the line of ready defenders until she saw the familar shape of her twin brothers standing ready and Railen between them. Urging the Talbuk to a gallop, she raced towards them, sliding off at the last moment. The Talbuk bleated at Fang, butting her head against his gently and Fang roofed at her, giving her a doggy grin. Ara stomped up to Railen, shouldering her brother aside to stand beside him, holding the staff that looked as big as her. "Oh good, I got here in time. "

He went wide eyed as he looked at the girl at his side. "You...stupid little girl," he practically snarled. "The hell are you doing out here! Get back to your home," he said frowning. "You hvae...reasons...for not being here," he said softly, eyeing her brothers. "Or I can go tell your father and share the news...he might not want you down here then..."

Ara glared at him, her eyes flaring angrily when he called her a stupid little girl. "Look you big oaf, if you think I'm just going to let you..." she trailed off and sighed. In her heart she knew he was right, she had the baby to think about now. She let loose a frustrated groan and grabbed Railen's tusks, pulling his lips to hers in a long kiss. "You better make it back to me." She said fiercely, pulling away and resting one hand against his cheek. "Because if you don't, I'll find you, ressurect you, and kill you myself." She turned, climbing back on Delica and wheeling. "Stay, Fang." She called as she galloped back towards her home. One of the twins grinned at Railen. "She'll do it, to." One of them warned, looking towards the front, and the advancing troops.

"Ya, I know she will," he muttered, feeling a little bad as he watched her ride off, wanting to follow to make sure she actually went to her home, but couldn't. Siege ladders quickly slammed up against the wall as undead, trolls, orcs, and the like started to move up them quickly. Blade in hand Railen snarled and hacked at the undead that came in front of him, its head splitting in two as it fell, the orcs foot smashing into the top of the ladder to send it crashing to the ground as invaders were soon on the wall. Railen moved quickly into the thickest of the fighting, even if he was nearly naked, his armor back in Ara's room where he had left it in his rush. Slashing the blade expertly he moved through those taht made it onto the wall, watching as they flooded the gate.

Beside him, Ara's brothers were doing more than thier fair share of the work. The two shared a close bond and were almost telepathic, being able to sense the others moves almost before they happened. It made for a beautiful symmetry of cutting blows, downing every attacker in front of them as their blades whirled together. They were shouting insults as they did, and some of them carried above the sounds of battle. "Oo that was your jaw then, wasn't it Mr Undead? Oh well, you won't miss it." "Oh no! It's a troll! Oops, he's dead too." "You smelly orc beast... not you Railen, you actually smell sort of pleasant, very woodsy " "Oh shutup you moron." The Exodar forces cut through Marrowbone's company quickly. In the middle of the battle, Marrowbone himself fought his way towards the front, spotting Railen. "YOU!" He bellowed, knocking aside one of his own soldiers to get to him. "You. Hows that little slut working out for you, hmmm? I can't wait to make it through these forces and take her for myself. I'll spit her on my rotting cock and show her what a real man is like!" He sneered, confident because Railen was without armor.

Railen grinned a little at that. "You will be lucky if she doesn't bit it off and spit it out," he said, his body already covered in a few more gashes, but with as many scars as he already had they would become unnoticable when they scarred over. "But the little slut is quite fine," he said as he lifted his blade some more as he gave a roar, charging the undead as the heavy blade slashed at the rotting man, the blade moving so fast it blurred, cutting down Marrows men who tried to move in to help their general.

Ara's brothers, hearing the comment, charged in behind Railen, keeping the general's men off of his back. "That's our sister you're talking about, Rotty!" "Yea, nobody talks about our sister like that!" They left the general to Railen, but kept his back clean, their blades once again whirling in sync. Fang was nearby, tearing at the various horde troops, howling victoriously. Marrowbone charged towards the Orc as well, swinging his blade towards the Orc's bare chest. "This will be easy, pig, and then the whore is mine."

Railen quickly dashed the generals sword away again and again, the man having to fight with only one hand helped give Railen an upper hand. He finally blocked the sword and pinned it, snapping the blade under one of his swings as he hefted the blade and hacked it at the general, slashing through his chest. Railen gave a grin at that, watching the general fall as he wiped the blade clean. He snarled as he felt an arrow from a troll a good bit away sink into his chest, ripping it out as he ignored the blood flowing from his chest as he charged back into the fray.
