Chapter 151 Junior Sorceress Melisa Blackflame, Part Thirty-Six*
"Once upon a time, it was the other way around," the queen began, pacing toward Melisa with a grin. "Your kind kept humans as mere cattle, sources of energy to feed your insatiable appetites."
Melisa's eyebrows shot up so fast she thought they might fly off her face.
"Wait, what? We did what now?"
The queen chuckled, a sound that sent shivers down Melisa's spine.
"Oh yes. You see, as I'm sure you know, without regular... intimacy, nim wither and fade. And humans were your favorite snack."
[Holy shit, is she for real?] Melisa's mind raced, trying to process this bombshell.
"So... You know we can all use magic, right?"
Of course you can use magic. You're practically made of the stuff," she smiled wide. "But, part of keeping our people from being beneath yours again is making sure you believe you can't."
Melisa's jaw dropped. She felt like she'd been hit by a truck. A truck full of mind-blowing revelations and "what the actual fuck" moments.
Queen Melara continued, clearly enjoying Melisa's shock.
"Hundreds of years ago, humanity rose up. We solved the 'nim problem' and vowed never to let it happen again. We erased all mention of nim from history and banned nim from using magic. If any nim was caught practicing its use, you were rounded up and... well, you know," the queen smiled. "Something funny ended up happening.
A couple of generations later, many among you didn't even know you could use magic. So, we spread that lie about your inability to use magic, all while keeping the prohibition in place. Slowly, but surely, a lot less nim, a lot less nim magic."
[This... this changes everything,] Melisa thought, her head spinning. [If this is true, then... holy shit.]
"So you see," the queen said, her voice low and intense, "everything we've done, everything we're doing, it's all to protect ourselves. To ensure that history doesn't repeat itself."
Melisa swallowed hard, her mouth suddenly dry.
"But... but that's insane. You can't punish an entire community for something that happened centuries ago. Something we don't even remember!"
The queen's eyes flashed dangerously.
"Can't we? It's called survival, little nim. And make no mistake, your kind would do the same to us if given half a chance."
Melisa shook her head vehemently.
"No, you're wrong. We're not like that anymore. We're just trying to live our lives, same as anyone else."
"Oh?" Queen Melara raised an eyebrow. "And what about that little spell you cast on me earlier? Seems like the old nim tricks are still alive and well."
[... Fuck,] Melisa thought, wincing internally.
But outwardly, she stood her ground.
"That was different. I'm just trying to protect my people. From you."
The queen laughed, a sound that was equal parts amused and threatening.
"And there it is. The truth comes out. So, I ask... can you truly blame me for doing the same?"@@novelbin@@
The queen reached forward and stuck a finger in Melisa's mouth. Melisa's eyes widened.
"Now," the queen lifted her dress. "Go ahead and start licking my cunt already. Unless you'd rather I call for my knight to come in and take your head off for your little trick."
Melisa swallowed.
No, no. She knew which option she preferred.

{Zephyra}
Zephyra's heels clicked against the stone path as she walked beside King Aldric through the royal gardens. The sweet scent of blooming roses filled the air, mingling with the earthy aroma of freshly cut grass. Sunlight dappled through the leaves of ancient oak trees, casting shifting patterns on the ground.
[I hope Melisa's doing alright with the queen,] Zephyra thought. [Haven't heard any shouting, so...]
"You seem distracted, Lady Vortell," King Aldric observed, his deep voice cutting through her musings. "Is something troubling you?"
Zephyra forced a smile, pushing her concerns for Melisa to the back of her mind.
"Not at all, Your Majesty. I was merely admiring the beauty of the gardens. They're particularly resplendent this time of year."
The king nodded, a faint smile tugging at his lips.
"Indeed they are. Though I suspect they'll be even lovelier in a few weeks' time, when the princess returns."
Zephyra nearly stumbled, her eyes widening in surprise.
"The princess? She's returning to Syux?"
King Aldric raised an eyebrow, clearly amused by her reaction.
"Why yes, I thought you knew. She's set to arrive in a few weeks' time. Has news not reached the court sorceress?"
Zephyra's mind raced. Princess Elysa, returning after so long? She knew it would happen some day, but it felt surreal.
"Forgive me, Your Majesty. I... I was under the impression that the princess's diplomatic mission to Rhaya was ongoing. Has she completed her work there?"
The king's expression darkened slightly, a shadow passing over his face.
"Completed? Perhaps. Or perhaps she's simply given up. The situation with the darians remains... delicate."
Zephyra nodded, her thoughts whirling. She recalled the day Princess Elysa had left for Rhaya, determined to broker peace between the human kingdom and the darian tribes. She had actually been there for it, watching the young lady go. It had been a bold move that had shocked the court and given hope to those who dreamed of ending the longstanding, on-again, off-again conflict.
"I see," Zephyra said carefully, measuring her words. "And how does Her Majesty feel about the princess's return?"
King Aldric's lips thinned, his gaze fixed on the path ahead.
"The queen... has her own views on the matter. But let us not dwell on such things. Tell me, Lady Vortell, how goes your tutelage of young Melisa?"
Zephyra recognized the deflection for what it was, but didn't press the issue. Instead, she launched into a detailed account of Melisa's progress, all the while turning over this new information in her mind.
[The princess returning... and right in the middle of this mess with the nim,] she thought. [This could change everything. Or make things infinitely more complicated.]

{Melisa}
Melisa had flipped the queen onto her back.
Then, Melisa piston-fucked her ass with two fingers, exactly as the queen requested.
Queen Melara moaned, her body writhing under Melisa's touch. Her royal dignity forgotten, she spread her legs wider, inviting more of Melisa's attention.
"More," she gasped, her voice husky with desire. "Give me more, you nim whore."
Melisa raised a brow, though her smirk didn't go away, adding a third finger to the queen's tight asshole.
She pumped her hand faster, feeling the queen's muscles clench around her digits.
[Fuck, I can't believe this is happening,] Melisa thought, her own arousal building. [I'm finger-fucking the queen's ass. How the hell did I end up here?]
The answer to that was, of course, simple.
The queen was aware of Melisa's charm. But... She wasn't calling for her head just yet.
[The spell has to be messing with her judgment,] Melisa reasoned. [As soon as this ends, she might just have me beheaded then and there.]
So, Melisa wanted to prevent this from ending. At least, for now.
The queen's body quivered, her back arching off the bed as Melisa's fingers worked their magic. Sweat glistened on her pale skin, her chest heaving with each ragged breath.
"Yes, yes! Just like that, you filthy nim slut!" Queen Melara cried out, her fingers clutching the silk sheets.
Melisa leaned down, her lips brushing against the queen's ear.
"You like that, Your Majesty? You like having a nim fuck your royal ass?"
The queen nodded frantically, beyond words.
Melisa grinned, her free hand moving to the queen's neglected pussy. She rubbed circles around the queen's clit, feeling it swell under her touch.
[This is fucking insane,] Melisa thought, her own pussy throbbing with need. [But I can use this. All I need is to get her to cum and, then... I'll sprint out of this room at the first chance!]
Queen Melara's body tensed, her muscles clenching around Melisa's fingers. With a scream of ecstasy, she came, her juices coating Melisa's hand.
Melisa continued her ministrations, working the queen through her orgasm.
As the queen's body finally relaxed, Melisa slowly withdrew her fingers, leaving the monarch panting and boneless on the bed.
"Well, Your Majesty," Melisa purred, licking her fingers clean, "I hope that was... satisfactory."
Queen Melara laughed breathlessly, her eyes still glazed with post-orgasmic bliss.
"Oh, you have no idea, little nim mage. No idea at all."
As the queen's breathing steadied, Melisa's mind raced.
Naturally, she turned toward the door. The queen's orgasmic high would fade soon and she didn't want to still be here when it did.
But...
The revelations about nim history still echoed in her head, threatening to shatter everything she thought she knew about herself and her people.
She needed to know more.
"Your Majesty," Melisa began, her voice carefully controlled, "about what you said earlier..."
Queen Melara's eyes flashed, some of her regal authority returning despite her disheveled state.
[Shit, did I mess up?]
"Careful, nim. You've had your fun, but don't forget your place." The queen sighed, melting into the bed. "I like you, strangely. You're clever. Quick-witted. But, you're still a nim."
Melisa bit back a retort, her tail twitching with irritation.
[Well, that's great,] she remarked sarcastically. [Lots of progress, huh? Even my pheromones couldn't get me that far... Though,] she tilted her head. [I guess, from a certain point of view, the fact that the queen even bothered telling me all that probably means I did "win" in a way. Even if she is still a massive...]
But, she held her tongue, even in her own thoughts. She knew she had to tread carefully. One wrong move and she could end up in the dungeon... or worse. Read new chapters at My Virtual Library Empire
"Of course, Your Majesty," Melisa said, forcing a submissive tone into her voice. "I merely wanted to express my... gratitude for your honesty. So..." She put her own clothes back on. "If you'll excuse me, I'll be going now."
The queen put on a face of "should I really be allowing her to just go?"
And, Melisa made sure she was gone before the queen answered that.
And all the while, that revelation spun in her mind.
What do you think?
