King's Pond

[Guest]

It was a small, exquisite pool of water. The grass neatly clipped, the bushes and trees carefully placed and cared for as well. None of that mattered to the grimy man that came near it in the midnight hour though, he was thirsty, tired and felt the grime of the last week upon his face and hair.

A shirt that had seen better days slid from broad shoulders, followed by torn and bloody pants. But no fresh scars were visible, the clothes had been taken from another, it seemed.

A drink of water told it to be fresh and cold, then another before he slid into its surface, making small ripples in it as he gasped from the staggering chill of it then submerged his body in it with a quiet laugh.

The cold water drained off his hard flesh as he stood and swung his arms, pumping blood into the well muscled arms and back and warmth as well. The water was sweet to the taste and once again he drank deeply of it, the cool fluid refreshing him as it slid down his throat.

A smile spread across his face, the grime now gone, revealing sharp features, hard planes of cheekbone and chin under a pair of pale grey eyes. The smile took years off the face, then the age returned as he stepped from the cool water, surveying the pile of filthy clothes.

He could wash them, he decided and kicked them into the water. Torn and ragged, but clean would be better than none at all.

The two items hung from the branch of a low tree as the young man leaned against its base, munching contentedly on a small fruit from a nearby bush. A few more pulpy fruit and he would don the rapidly drying clothes and move on.

Nice beginning, Unregistered. But I suggest registering and then returning to the thread. It might find you a partner faster when people know you'll be here for more than a day.

Good Luck!

Tanya lived in a small village unaware of the dangers that lurked not far away. Contrary to her peasant parent's wishes she liked to wonder around the forests looking for berries, mushrooms and herbs. This were always a treat for her parents and she eagerly sold the extras to some of the wealthier villages to whom she was regularly employed cleaning, sewing and doing other chores.

Dressed in a white peasant blouse and a simple skirt she wondered through the forest.

OCC You looked lonely! I'm not sure where you planned the story. If you like it build on it. If you don't - I'm sorry and I'll make like a slutty bee and buzz off to get fucked somewhere else. LOL
