"My god this bed fucking sucks." My back feels like I slept on the stone ground beneath the house.

"My boob hurts." Shiera sits up and rubs her left breast that was squished into the mattress.

"I couldn't stop turning over the whole night." Rhaenyra sighs as she tries to get up with achy movements.

"It wasn't too bad." Daenerys who slept on top of me yawns while stretching her arms and we all look at her with judging eyes.

I shake my head and lift her off me by her thighs and set her onto the stiff mattress and roll from under the covers. Standing up I lift my arms over my head and stretch back and feel my back pop a few times.

I head over to my chest and kick the lid open since it's already unlocked and start pulling out a clean outfit.

"You guys going to come with me to get clean or what is your plan?" I don't plan to let them go alone, sounds like asking for trouble. Fresh water is right out the exit of the cove toward the jungle where there is a freshwater creek.

"I sure am not going along so I am going with you." Rhaenyra already has clothes over her arm and is leaning on the door out of the shack.

"Yea I want to scrub off good since we could only do the minimum with the clean water on the boat. We should probably make sure the others are fine or see if they want to go with us as well." Daenerys wants to invite even more naked women to look out for. I have to make sure some horny Dornish man doesn't need his hands and feet removed, might just take a head if they try to take a look.

Looking over at Shiera she is still massaging her tit so I walk over and slide her hand away and grip it with my hand.

"Bath?" My fingers sink into her breast as she nods and slowly sets her head against my stomach as she is still sitting on the bed. "Alright grab what you need and let's start walking." She looks up biting her lower lip and nods, her blue and green eye each doing their best to draw me in.

I keep her chin lifted with my free hand and lean down to kiss her lips as I give her boob a last squeeze and drop it as I break the kiss.

"Let's go then, I got plenty of stuff for us to wash with I probably brought enough to wash all of us for three years if we needed it." I look over at her three stacked chests and wonder if one is just full of body cleaner.

----

"I don't know if getting clean is worth that long walk, why can't we just wash in the first little creek we passed?" Tyene Sand complains as we approach a more inland water source that is deep enough to submerge in.

Ellaria is taking this a lot more seriously than I thought, she brought guards and twenty of them, all women after I said I didn't want a bunch of men checking out my wives. She laughed and swapped out the few men she had saying they were more into me than them anyway.

"That's where people are getting their drinking water and they don't want your ass in it." Nymeria responds sharply as she drops her clothes and walks straight into the water. "Fuck this is kind of cold." She grabs her arms but keeps walking into the water.

I see everyone else dropping clothes and heading in and I sigh, I should have thought this through a bit more. Deciding it doesn't matter I just lay my clean clothes on a smooth grey rock and lean Brightroar against it as I take off my dirty clothes from yesterday I wore out here.

Walking into the water the bottom of it is smooth and very small pebbles, the water is clear so it doesn't do much of anything in the way of concealing what's beneath it. That's good so a big snake doesn't come up and bite my ass or something but it also doesn't stop the 'snakes' from taking peeks at my snake.

I just ignore the others as I take a small handful of Shieras body cleaner and walk into a spot on my own and dunk myself with my hand with the cleaner over the water. Coming back up I shake my hair and start rubbing the almost pink goo onto my skin and it feels sandy and sticky but I know it works miracles. Its gritty feeling feels like it is going to pull my skin off but once it's washed away the skin feels smooth.

I look up hearing someone wadding toward me and see Danny with a small wine bottle of amber liquid.

"Can you do my hair for me?" She hands me the bottle and turns around before placing herself against me.

"Sure but I need you to do mine for me then." She nods and I pour a tiny amount on my hand before plugging the bottle back. I hand the bottle back to her so I can use both hands and I start rubbing the amber liquid into her hair.

"Me to please." Shiera and Rhaenyra head over as well and I sigh through my nose.

"Alright then go ahead and start doing mine while I finish Danny." I lower myself into the water and Danny hands over the bottle to Shiera.

"I should cut your hair again, it's starting to get long once more." She pours some onto her hand as she looks at my hair and I nod.

"I would like that." I respond and she smiles and starts working the amber liquid into my hair as Rhaenyra holds the bottle.

I notice the dragons flying around us taking in the sights, none have flown off far and I don't know if it's fear of the unknown or just not wanting to leave us behind. They pretty much have been circling us or riding on us when we were walking over here.

"They did well last night, I was worried about them but they did ok." Rhaenyra notices me watching them and comments.

"Yea their first time not sleeping in the same 'room' as me or in a chest within arms reach." They slept on the roof of our little 'house' and as soon as we came out jumped on us.

The independence from me both scares me because of someone potentially trying to hurt them but also makes me happy since it's a sign they are growing. They won't always fit in the room with me and will have to give some space in certain circumstances.

"Dunk your head, Danny." I finish running all her hair through my hands and it's all coated in the amber stuff. She goes under the water and starts rubbing her hands through her hair on her own.

"You too Eragon." Shiera finishes with me much faster and I take a breath before going under the water.

----

"That wasn't too bad." I speak up as we make it back and I drop my dirty clothes off in a corner of the room.

"Yea it felt nice to get scrubbed down, it's a pretty far walk though." Shiera responds and I agree but it's not too terrible, could be no spot to fully dip.

"We won't be here forever so just be patient, we have quite a few 'servants' so we could just ask them to fetch water and wash by hand." She nods and sits on the hard bed.

"Let's rotate between the two and we should also steal the bed off the ship before the Sand Snakes take off with it. I do not want to sleep on this monstrosity again." Shiera grips her breasts protectively and I nod, this bed is not going to work.

Trying to fuck on this will just break my spine or something.

"The Dragons are melting a hole into the rock wall next to our little house and taking turns burning it. They already got a big portion of it turned orange from the heat of their flames." Daenerys walks into the room and looks quite proud of the mining dragons.

"All that practice in the bedroom on the expensive walls and floors will finally pay off, I wonder if they will find any gems. Tons of gems come from the Summer Isles so I wouldn't be that surprised if they did dig something up while cutting out a bedroom for themselves." I grab Daenerys as she walks beside me and she tosses her dirty clothes on top of my own making a pile.

I lift her chin and take her lips as she hums in approval and wraps her arms around my neck. I grip her ass and lift her so she can wrap her legs as well. Her soft lips hypnotize me as I take us to the bed and drop on my rear next to Shiera who huffs in annoyance.

"We need to swap this bed before you fuck on it or they will complain about having to carry a bed stinking of sex." Shiera breaks the fun and we break our kiss.

"You are right so let's get someone on that, they probably gave us this bed on purpose since they're jealous of our fun." Danny slides her ass against my lap as she tries to get back onto her feet and the door opens once more showing Rhaenyra as she walks in.

"You guys should come see the dragons, they are digging out a huge part of the cave for their own." I laugh seeing Rhaenyra look so excited as she tells us something we just heard.

"Let's check it out before we try to get that bed." I slap both my hands on Danny's soft ass and stand up with it in my grip before lowering her to her feet.

She rolls her eyes and walks toward the door and I follow after her after helping Shiera up to her feet as well. Shiera loops her arms with my right arm and presses her chest into me as we make our way for the door and I grab Brightroar with my left as I walk by it.

As soon as I am outside I look toward where both Rhaenyra and Danny walked to and see a glowing orange circle on the cave wall with seven dragons blowing fire at it. Different colored flames all meet and clash as they bathe the wall and it melts into an orange liquid and pools onto the ground.

"They are going quite big aren't they?" I ask and see Rhaenys and others also watching them with interest. "They will probably get themselves super hungry doing that as well and drop into a long nap." Remembering how they would tire themselves out digging the holes in the room I smile.

"Good thing we have plenty of food for them, those crabs could feed them for a long time with how big they are." Visenya speaks up and looks over at me and gives me a bright smile.

"I wonder how they know to just burn the stone like that, like how do they know without any big dragons showing them the way?" Rhaenys asks once the dragons tire out and stop spraying the wall in their flames.

"I don't know, but are you going to be fine if I leave for a while to check on things?" Ellaria turns to look at us.

"If you could have someone swap the mattress we used for literally anything else that would be great but I prefer the one we used before on the boat." She nods and looks toward the house curiously but doesn't ask anything else before walking off with a few of the Sand Snakes following her.

"So what are we going to do until we leave this place?" Visenya walks over and pokes my chest as she looks around the cave.
