A Fah'Rey Tale (Book 1 Of The Nine Realms)

A Present For a Queen

The room smelt disgusting, she will need to replace most of her clothes. The thing even chewed on her bras and panties. Just thinking about it made her feel sick, how vile. Her other roommates are out buying milk tea, she doubted whether even that could brighten her mood. \

Her head was starting to buzz, her doctor called it tinnitus, it was especially bad right now, and getting worse by the minute. Maybe she should open the window and let some fresh air in. As she opens the window, a grotesque insect like head popped over the sill. She screamed uncontrollably as she stumbled backwards. The thing advanced into her room, another scream! Another one appeared, she was so terrified she passed out.

When she finally came back to consciousness her hands were tied, and there was a bag of cloth over her head. She tried to scream but they had gagged her. She decided not to waste her energy struggling, but to surmise her situation instead. She appeared to be riding some sort of animal. Its fur was prickly, periodically poking through the fabric of her cotton sweatpants.

 The smell wasn't unpleasant, maybe a little exotic, like a spice. After an hour or so, it appeared that they arrived at their destination. The two Creatures made buzzing noises to each other in some type of communication. She even could discern one was laughing. Surprising to her, they were gentle with her, her first impression was that they were going to eat her. But now she realized that they are somewhat intelligent. 

They guided her up a flight of stairs, looking down at the workmanship they resembled honeycombs. Everything smelt....sweet, after walking a long distance through winding corridors they came to a large chamber. There was a loud buzzing from what sounded like hundreds of different sources. The floor seemed to vibrate under her feet, and a few voices were speaking words that were difficult to understand because of the background hum. After a few minutes of waiting a hush came over the room. Something important was about to happen, what was going to happen to her? He entire body was shaking she thought she might pee herself due to fright.

"Please do not keep me in suspense any longer, I am eager to view my present!" The voice was feminine in nature, but was not quite right, the words where strained like speaking was unnatural. Each word was spoken slowly and ended in a subtle buzz. She spoke with the dignity of someone with high status. " Come now, show me this[beauty] who thinks she can take my betrothed from me! I am growing impatient!!"

The hood was removed from the girl's head, she blinked because of the sudden brightness. She was awestruck by what she was witnessing. Hundreds of similar insect like creatures sat all around the chamber. The room was tiered like an opera house, the entire room emitted what could only be described as a collective gasp

 But there were a few individuals who were more human in appearance. In particular the three individuals standing directly in front of her. Two males dressed in toga like garb, and the female, who could only be the speaker previously. She could only be described as a radiant beauty. 

She was wearing a opulent golden gown that appeared to flow from her body as if it was honey. Her body was lithe with long elegant limbs, wings protruded from her back. Her most stunning feature was her incredible beauty. Although with insectile aspects, two antennae protruded from her forehead. And her eyes were almond shaped, but golden with hints of green and lavender. The girl was immediately enthralled, she could not imagine anything more beautiful. The thoughts were interrupted when the [queen] spoke again.

With the sound of disdain in her tone, " oh....is that all? I was expecting....more. How could that silly monkbee even suggest that this thing" . Waving dismissively in the girl's direction, "could win my betrothed's heart away from me."

An instant dislike formed in the girl's mind, like most pretty girls, this bitch is too full of conceit. How rude for her to look down upon me? She was about to raise her voice to challenge the queen. When a curious figure entered, a cross between a monkey and a fly.

"My queen, ooh ooh ooh it is because your waasperns grabbed the wrong girl! They took the uglier one by mistake!"

"Now that is just fucking rude!", the girl shouted as a response..
