Nothing But A Hole

Ellamir woke up in cold sweat, panting from the horror she just saw. The dream she experienced was so vivid she had to look at her still shaking hands to confirm if there was any blood on it.

The feeling of her sword penetrating flesh, blood flowing into her hands, the tremendous guilt brought by such action.

The horror of killing her own sister was deeply seared into the back of her mind.

5 days in a row she had experienced the same nightmares. One thing is for sure, it cannot be a coincidence, something or someone is implanting these nightmares inside her head, making her go insane.

Staring blankly at the ceiling, she would need answers.

Ellamir thought of approaching her mother first, until realizing she might just trivialize it and say something like "it's just a dream, get over it."

Better approach someone who's going to be willing to help.

"Must be nice being able to see in the dark. You think if I stay long enough in the Underdark I'll develop dark vision too?"

It was akin to asking whether if you swam long enough in the sea, you'd develop gills. A stupid question but one that brought a smile to the Dark elf's face. One that she's not planning on letting the Amazon see or she wouldn't let her hear the end of it.

"Quit your yapping and just follow me."

Their twisted relationship had gone to the point where Antani could sense if Ellamir was being serious or not. At that moment, she knew her master wasn't really bothered by her being that talkative.

"You know what I hate about the Underdark? you can't tell the difference between night and day!" Antani who was carrying a torch mumbled at the dark elf walking in front of her. The pair had been traversing the dark for about 2 hours now.

Even with one-eye, Ellamir's dark vision allowed her to see with clarity, leading Antani through the Underdark's complex cave system shrouded in darkness.

"You'll get used to it."

Antani found it hard to keep track of the days since the Underdark only has nights but she would reckon it's been almost a month since she started living with her master. She found the constant night ambiance quite serene at first but now she's starting to miss the warm sunlight on her skin.

"I'll get used to it? Didn't you plan on shipping me away once you're done fucking me?"

"We could work on that. We're nearing the entrance to the surface right now, want me to haul your ass to the nearest city?"

"Heh. As if you could part with me." Antani said smugly.

Antani only wanted to banter with Ellamir. Tease her on where her nefarious plans for the Amazon went. Ellamir on the other hand interpreted it as Antani trying to push her buttons again, like she always does.

"You think I can't? You're nothing but a hole for me, I can get rid of you whenever I want. Know your place."

Nothing but a hole. Hearing that infuriated the Amazon to high heavens. When she gave herself up to Ellamir she prepared herself for a world of pain, in the end none of Ellamir's vicious threats were made true.

She kept the Amazon all for herself.

How she wished she continued to be the cruel mistress that she showed herself to be during their first night. It would've been easier to continue hating her guts that way.

She wasn't as emotionless as a Golem or a Doll. You can't expect her to lay with someone as many times as they did and not feel anything out of it.

Was this her plan for her after all? To make her feel things that a slave shouldn't?

"Know what I think!? I think you're full of shit, master! As soon as we get home I know you're going to be deep inside me again. When are you going to admit that…"

Antani caught herself before she said something that she might have regretted.

"Admit what?" Ellamir questioned, grabbing Antani's wrist, squeezing it hard as if doing so she would be able to easily squeeze out the answers she wanted.

"Unhand me!"

Now both of them are mad as hell.

"You don't get to make demands! You're my slave, remember!? Will you answer me or do I have to order you? "

If she wanted to she could easily flick her hand away.

Her oath to obey her every word was ironclad. She swore by her pride as an Amazon after all.

Humiliation, physical pain, sexual violation. She was prepared for the worst that Ellamir would bring upon her. Never thought that something as simple as a question was the thing that would make her waver.

And the answer was so damn obvious, that they both knew it. Her master, however, was too much of an idiot to admit it to herself.

*Swish*

With a swift crossbow bolt, Antani's torch was shot to the ground. Instantly triggering her fight response, she drew her sword, even in total darkness she had faith that her hearing would suffice.

"I hope you didn't come all this way just to bicker?"

A huff voice came from above. With her heightened hearing, Antani heard the pairs chitinous legs scuttling, making its way down from the ceiling all the way to the floor. One of them appeared to be closing in on them.

"Hold your sword, I know this man." Ellamir said.

Whoever the interloper was, Antani was so glad that he intervened. She was so close to emotionally unload everything all because her master was too much of a dumbass to admit things on her own. Heaving a sigh of relief, she sheathed her sword.

"Hello, father." Ellamir calmly greeted the dark elf whose torso was composed of a giant spider.

A Drider.

"Wait, your father is a drider? Also, what the hell, you didn't tell me we're going to meet your father! I should have worn one of those fancy clothes that you bought for me!"

"Shut up, you dolt! I'm trying to have a serious conversation here!"

The drider laughed at their exchange. To his eyes, her daughter rarely exuded such lively energy.

Her daughter hardly visited her, she must have come here for a purpose.

"Why come to my domain, Ellamir?"

Ellamir told her father of the dreams she was experiencing, dreams that bordered on reality, instilling in her that dreaded sensation of murdering her very own sister. How it played on repeat night after night.

"I suppose it's finally time to tell you. Your mother had a sister, Nelessa, whom your mother killed exactly the same way as those visions of yours."

"What, how come I never heard of her!?" Her father's words surprised Ellamir. What's even surprising is the fact that this is the first time she's heard of her.

"As soon as she became the queen she had all the portraits of her burnt, her names in records expunged, and even forbade everyone from uttering her name. Was it guilt? Hardly. If you would ask me, I think she was just insane."

"What about my visions? Who's causing them?"

"Lolth"

Lolth, the very goddess of the dark elves herself was messing with Ellamir. The answer she was looking for was far heavier than she could have imagined.

"That's impossible. I haven't done anything to offend her, or at least I think I haven't."

"Lolth's cruelty knows no bounds, especially towards her own followers. If I would guess, her plans are to make you kill Maesha."

+++

After a bit of catching up, Ellamir decided it was time for them to leave. She had what she came for, now it's time to mull over the information and plan her next move.

She wasn't a devout believer in the first place, she's not going to dance to Lolth's tune and harm her beloved sister.

To an outsider like the Amazon, the meeting of the two seemed more like two acquaintances who hadn't seen each other for a while rather than the reunion of a father and child. It was drab, lacking in affection.

"Thank you, father. We shall both be on our way."

Before the two left, Ellamir's father called out to the Amazon.

"Antani, wasn't it? If you want to be by my daughter's side then you should know what she is."

Her father's words flew over Ellamir, Antani was already by her side after all. She is her slave.

Ellamir might have disregarded those words, but it was something that Antani took to heart.

Just as they are about to leave, Antani mellowly called out.

"Master."

"What!?"

Ellamir answered, unlike Antani who had already calmed down, she was still a bit miffed from their heated argument from earlier.

"I…can't see."

The dark elf sighed in disbelief, their current predicament made her grind her teeth in frustration.

"Father, do you have any extra torches that we could use?"

Her father chuckled.

"I'm a drider, do you think I have a need for those things?"

+++

Ellamir's father watched the two depart with a somewhat impish expression.

One of his drider companions approached him. "Didn't we have a lot of unused torches?"

"Yes, we do."

"Well why didn't you give one to your daughter's companion?"

"Because I'm a meddlesome father."

+++

"Not a single word, or I'm going to leave you here fumbling in the dark, understand?"

They have done the deed more times than the Amazon could remember. Her skin along with everything else had already been bared to Ellamir. Be that as may, the simple act of her holding her hand was making her heart beat like a war drum.

Antani was happy, precisely because of that she wanted to mess with her master some more.

"Really? I'd love to see you try."

"Tsk."

Ellamir could only click her tongue in resignation.

"Aren't you curious?"

The Amazon asked while walking in total darkness with nothing but the warmth of Ellamir's hands to guide her.

"Bout what?"

"What I was about to say from before."

"Oh that. Lost my interest, knowing you it was probably something dumb anyway."

Dealing with her master can be quite vexing sometimes, actually, scratch that and make it all the time. In spite of that, she can't really complain because her master definitely feels the same thing about her.

"Ow! The hell are you squeezing my hand for?"

"Nothing, you squeezed my wrist earlier, I'm only returning the favor."

"I swear if you squeeze my hands one more time I would really - Ow!"

+++

Antani''s words rang true. As soon as they got back Ellamir immediately ordered the Amazon to come to her bedchamber.

She wasn't against it, half expected it even.

Naked as the day they were born, Antani sank on the soft bed. With Ellamir right above her, her master's lips instantly went for her neck.

Antani felt how crude her suction was, she figured her master meant for it that way so it would leave a mark.

A mark to let those that would see it know that she is hers and hers alone.

She thought nothing of it the first time but Ellamir kept on repeating it every time they would go at it.

It was the first indicative that something was off.

Without warning, the next thing Antani felt was Ellamir's rock hard member penetrating her.

Something that should've hurt if she wasn't already wet and ready to take it.

She heard the dark elf whimper as soon as she took her girth inside of her. Her master's erotic moans filled the room as soon as she started bucking her hips. Almost made her release a sound too with how his size stimulated not just her insides but her pearl included.

The way Ellamir couldn't get enough of her body filled the Amazon with some kind of devious pride.

Antani ran her hands through the back of her master's white hair. She found it amusing how Ellamir tried to avoid eye contact as she desperately moved in and out of her.

In truth, Antani liked how morphed their relationship had become, but she's not going to moan and show it. She's not going to give any reaction. For Antani to accept what she feels, Ellamir has to admit that she fell for her first. Antani views it as a battle, and she has no plans on losing.

As soon as the Amazon noticed that her partner was picking up the pace she knew she was close.

Shortly after she felt her master's warm release coat her insides.

Crashing right next to her slave, Ellamir noticed that the Amazon was wearing a shit eating grin.

"What?"

"Nothing but a hole, Huh? you sure looked like you enjoyed fucking the shit out of that whole."

"Oh shut up."

+++

As the Amazon was about to leave and retire for sleep, the dread of experiencing the same nightmare crept up on Ellamir's heart.

She was going to be alone again with that dream haunting her.

Before the Amazon was able to pass through that door, she called out.

"Antani."

"Yes?"

"Sleep right next to me."

Antani looked at her master's almost pleading expression.

"Is that an order?" The Amazon asked.

"Only if you want it to be, you know what, nevermind."

"Alright, But I'm not going to sing you a lullaby."

With their backs turned against each other the two prepared to get some shut eye.

Ellamir found the Amazon annoying, that's a given. Nevertheless, she found her presence this time to be soothing. You can call it an intuition, but she just knew that her nightmares would be kept at bay this time around.

"Antani, you awake?"

"No, I'm already asleep."

"Thank you."

Her words of gratitude completely blindsided Antani. It was the first time she ever said it. She would've made a bigger deal out of it if she wasn't left exhausted by today's events.

"Did you just thank me? Hell must be cold today."

Too tired to even respond, Ellamir gave in to the weight of her eyelids.

+++

When Antani awoke she felt an odd sensation, upon investigating further it was her master's arms wrapped around her.

How did that get there?

Antani smirked. Her battle might end earlier than she thought it would.

She just remembered that today was an important day, her master told her to wake her up so they wouldn't be late. What occasion was it again?

Something something birthday celebration.

Antani couldn't really recall, she just decided to drift back into sleep.

Her master might get pissed again, but hey, it's her fault for lulling her back to sleep with her snuggly arms wrapped around.

Besides, she loves it when her master gets mad at her.
