The Palugs of Evilness: Mantle of Lust [Prototype]

Chapter 6: The Man that holds Venom

               ~30th of June, Year 287 ACK~

After some time, Antonela decided to listen to what Toby said and set out outside of the castle to see if there actually is a camp that sells humans near the castle. She put on the cloak of red diamonds, took a carrige with multiple chests filled with money and left the castle at night, when her servants were sleeping.

After some time, she reached the camp that the members of the Pale Venom set and started looking around. In the darkness of the night, there was the silhouette of a tall woman with long hair reaching her waist. She walked towards the woman, not knowing that would be her greatest mistake. That woman had beautiful deep blonde hair, her green eyes shone trough her mask and the dress she was wearing was a beautiful crimson red.

"Greetings. What do you need?" The woman asked. Antonela looked at her and, after some time of thinking, spoke. "Is it true that you are selling humans illegally to the highest bidders?" She asked. The woman nodded. "It is true. How did you find out?" She asked. Antonela chuckled. "There is an urband legend going around that you use this camp as a base of operation to sell peasants as slaves. It seems it is true." She said. The woman nodded. "I would like to know your information before proceeding to show you our products." She said. Antonela paused.

"My name is... Veronica Soare. I am 19 years old, and I live in a house in the town of Blăgești, not very far from Teleroman. I live alone, and I procure money by prostitution." She said. The woman nodded. "I am Vanessa Darkside, operator of this illegal human trade and sales manager of this area of the camp." However, she sensed Antonela's tone was a bit off, and she was lying. Her suspicion summoned Theurgist Viktor in her mind.

"I am the Theurgist Viktor, my child. It is nice to meet you." He said, the time slowing down and blue petals flying with the wind around them. Vanessa's eyes widened with surprised, and found that, no matter how much she tried to speak, nothing came out. "My child, listen closely." The Theurgist continued. "The woman infront of you is not named Veronica Soare. All the information she gave you is false. In reality, she is queen Antonela Rotaru of Zimnicea." He said. Vanessa almost fell down from the shock. "She is the one we are on the hunt for... I cannot believe I am speaking to this... this whore... It fills me with so much disgust for myself that I will colaborate with this fucking bitch..." She thought. The Theurgist smiled. "My child, there is nothing to be afraid of.  Just proceed with your business, and I promise you that it will all be alright." He said warmly. Vanessa tried to calm down. "I guess I will proceed." She thought. The time began swiftly running again, and Viktor dissapeared.

"Veronica, I will present you our products. Follow me." She said. Veronica followed her trough the camp, and they walked until they reached an area full of cages. Some were empty, some had dead corpses in them, and some were broken. Only three cages were locked, with a young man in each cage.

Antonela looked at the men in the cages, then stopped across the last cage. Inside, there was a young man who looked to be about 21. He was tall, he had tanned skin and brown hair. His sparkling eyes were blue. Antonela felt her face redden. "What is the name of this young man?" She asked. Vanessa walked up to him and started presenting him. "This is a 20 years old semi-dark man named Cherub Ichim. He is 195 centimeters tall and weights 65 kilograms. He is mostly a purebred Zimnicean, although one of his great great grandparents were Narinakan. His skills as a slave include butlering, cleaning and agriculture. He does not posess any genetical or nongenetical illnesses." She said. Antonela nodded. "How much is he?" Vanessa thought for a moment. "The last bidded bid 600 thousand lei for him."

Antonela nodded. She walked to the carrige she has travelled by and took all the chests, and placed them near Vanessa. "5...million..lei?" Vanessa asked, visibilly suprised. "Yes. Do I need to bid more?" The queen asked. Vanessa shook her head. "You will need to fill in some paperwork with my secretary, and he is all yours." She said. Antonela was led by Vanessa's secretary in a side tent to fill in the paperwork.

Vanessa walked up to Cherub's cage. "Cherub. Be vigilent. Do not let her get too close to you." She gave him the key to his cage, which he quickly hid in his pants. "You have done this before. You know what to do by now. But please, please be careful and stay alive." She opened the cage, hugged Cherub then tied him to a leash, which she also gave him a key to. "Use this to kill the whore." Vanessa said and gave Cherub a short dagger. Cherub nodded. "I will do. I will stay alive."

"Why are you in Cherub's cage?" Antonela asked. Vanessa got out of the cage silently. "I have tied him to a leash you can use to drag him outside of the cage." She gave Antonela a key to the cage and one to the leash. "It was a pleasure doing business with you." She said. She helped Antonela carry Cherub's cage to the carrige and get it inside. "Goodbye. Thank you for the goods." Antonela said and left. While travelling by the carrige, Cherub's dagger fell out of the cage into the street. "No!" He thought. "I should find a weapon wherever she takes me. If not, I could use the key to kill her... It is sharp enough." He made the plan.

Next morning, Antonela reached the palace and stealthly brought Cherub to the basement in his cage. Being already in a cage, she thought it was useless to put him in one of the cells so she stored him in the display room, near the mannequin placed in the broken glass display that was used to store the cloak all these years ago. Antonela put the cloak back on the mannequin. "I simply could not wait to arrive to the palace with you. Now, undress before me!" Cherub complied. 

Antonela jumped on Cherub and raped him for several hours. Cherub silently complied without saying anything. While she raped him, Cherub looked across the room to find an object he could kill the queen with, his eyes falling on the Cloak of Red Diamonds.

After two hours, Antonela finished and tossed him aside in the cage, leaving the basement and going upstairs.

A few days after raping Cherub, Antonela started feeling sick and vomiting, as well as having stomach pain, so she went to the doctor. The doctor examined at her and looked at her smiling.

"My queen, my heartfelt congratulations on this very warm day of summer. I have examined you, and it appears that you are pregnant. I wish you and the baby good health, wisdom and power." The doctor said. Upon hearing this, Antonela's eyes widened in happiness. The happy feelings she felt were so powerful that, even if temporary, Sateris lost most of his control over her body, one of her eyes returning to the original blue she had all these years ago, before she was posessed. She smiled brightly. "I am pregnant. I... I am pregnant. I have a little baby!" She gasped in pure joy.

Antonela ran towards the castle's announcement balcony, and the citizens swiftly gathered to listen to her. "My dear people, wonderful citizens of my kingdom, I wish to announce you that I am pregnant!" She said. The peasants cheered and smiled, running to buy her gifts to congratulate her.
