Larra’s Saharan Adventure

 

Chapter 10 The Pharaoh

 

Wosret IV, pharaoh of the Hidden Kingdom, lord of the earth and sky, gazed with pleasure on the stately beauty who had just entered his bedchamber.  He had been saving this one, the latest addition to his harem.  She was  most unusual.  Never before had he seen a woman who was so tall.  He was considered a giant among his people, but she came up to the top of his nose.  She was also well-muscled and athletic.  She seemed more like a warrior than a concubine.  But for all that she was very beautiful.  Shoulder length deep brown hair framed a face accentuated by high cheekbones, perfectly arched eyebrows, dark piercing eyes, a straight nose and a lower lip that appeared to have been stung by a bee. 

 

She was naked to the waist as were all young women in his court, and her high heavy breasts swayed enticingly as she stepped toward him and then bowed as she had been taught.  He allowed himself a smile.  It seemed that this one was very different from the others.  It had taken her many lessons to learn that bowing before the Lord of the Sun, was expected, and he understood that she had caused quite a stir in the harem by standing up to Isetnofret.  The queen had complained to him about the girl’s lack of respect, but he had decided to do nothing.  He was becoming tired of Isetnofret’s domineering attitude.  It didn’t hurt to remind her that her power was only lent to her and that he was the source of everything she considered important.

 

He motioned for the girl to rise, noting the athletic grace as she did so.  The girl moved like a leopard, displaying power and beauty.  With a glance he dismissed the guards and patted the seat beside him.  It was slightly lower than his and he wondered if the girl was aware of the honour shown her by being allowed to sit so near his level. 

 

He paid her even greater honour by pouring the wine and offering her the opportunity to drink first.  She accepted the cup, but surprised him by waiting for him to fill his own before raising it to her lips.  Perhaps the girl was not such an untutored savage as he thought.

 

Melissa’s heart was beating wildly.  She knew exactly why the pharaoh had summoned her, but was not sure how she should react.  The thought that she might soon be bedded by the Egyptian ruler was both scary and at the same time very exciting.  To be seduced by a king must be every girl’s fantasy.  It was certainly one of hers, but now that the opportunity had come she was not quite so sure about it.  She was, after all a woman of the twentieth century.  She was free to do what she wanted.  A man had no right to use her without her consent.  On the other hand, she was not in Toronto anymore.  She was somewhere in Africa; lost with no idea of how to get back to the civilization she was used to.  She decided to let things happen between the pharaoh and her.  When the time came – well, then she would make up her mind.  In the meantime it wouldn’t hurt to have a sip of wine.  She was careful, however, to make sure that the pharaoh drank first. 

 

She had gotten used to her lack of clothes.  All of the women in the palace went about almost completely naked.  Still, this close to the pharaoh, she was glad that her short skirt covered her most private area.  The pharaoh too wore very little and it was a little unnerving to be so close to a man who was only one garment away from revealing the most mysterious and perhaps (she hoped) impressive part of his anatomy.

 

She had no idea why it was important to her that the pharaoh be well endowed.  After all, she had no real intention of sleeping with him, at least right away.  Unless he insisted.  Then what would she do?  She had been raped before and it had been a most horrible and degrading experience.  She would never forget the terror and the sick feeling as her virginity was torn from her.  She could never consent to such a thing.

 

But what if the pharaoh wanted to make love to her and she did not?  Would that be rape?  What if she didn’t resist and simply let him have her?  She didn’t know.  But it was not a comfortable thought.  Lovemaking should be by mutual consent, and handsome and powerful as the pharaoh was, Melissa was just not in the mood to let him have her at the moment.  But later she might be.  As she had already decided.  She would cooperate.  She would let things happen up to a point and then she would decide.  And if what she decided upset the pharaoh, well, that would be his misfortune.

 

The pharaoh filled her wine cup again.  Melissa realized with some surprise that she had completely drained the first cup.  But it seemed to have calmed her down a bit.  She now felt a rosy glow suffusing her body.  “I’d better go easy on this stuff,” she thought.  “I don’t want to get drunk.”  She took a small sip and set the cup down.  From beneath lowered eyelids she studied the pharaoh. 

 

He was tall as she had first noted.  Probably about six foot two inches.  His eyes were dark and piercing and his head appeared to have been shaved.  He wore the same circlet of gold she had seen the previous day.  Close up she could see that the eyes of the cobra were set with rubies and that the body was exquisitely carved. 

 

As for the pharaoh’s body it too was exquisite.  As he leaned toward her Melissa could see the muscles ripple beneath his tanned skin.  His shoulders were broad and his chest deep, narrowing to a relatively slender waist.  His powerful arms were adorned with gold armbands studded with precious gems, most notably rubies and diamonds.  Beneath the kilt that extended to his knees she caught a glimpse of powerful thigh muscles.  She suppressed a shiver of excitement as she took him in.  He was very impressive, but she did not want her interest in him to show.  He might be the master, but she did not intend to let him have his way with her without putting up a fight.

 

Wosret refilled his wine glass.  His desire for the mysterious young woman sitting next to him was intense, but he did not want to force himself on her.  I was unfortunate that she spoke only some barbarian language.  It would have been interesting to get to know her better; but just looking at her told him something about her.   He could sense the tension in her.  She appeared to be relaxed, but beneath her calm manner lurked a wild animal.  She was like a leopard sleeping in the sun; seemingly peaceful but deadly dangerous.  One wrong move and she would and she would unwind like the strike of a cobra.  Slowly he drained his wine cup.  It would not do to rush this one.  He already knew that she would defend herself.  Isetnofret had come to him the previous day raging at the barbarian hyena bitch who had attacked her, and demanding that she locked in an iron cage.  He had listened to her, of course.  She was the mother of his children and entitled to respect, but when he had asked to see evidence of the injuries inflicted on her by the brown-haired barbarian she could only complain of a sore wrist.  He had laughed at that, further angering the queen, but there was little she could do about it.  He had made it clear that the tall savage was under his protection and not to be harmed.  Now he slowly sipped his wine and tried to think of a way to tame the wildly beautiful young woman who sat next to him. 

 

As the pharaoh finished his wine, Melissa pretended to sip at hers.  She was already feeling the effects of the first cup.  It was heady stuff, much higher in alcohol content than the wine she was used to.  Not that she had much experience in drinking.  Her Upper Canada parents were strict teetotalers and she had not had a drink until she had entered college, and that was only a single glass from a smuggled bottle of wine. 

 

Larra did not consume a great deal of alcohol and her companions generally emulated her.  As a result, Melissa did not have to consume much wine for it to have a profound effect on her.  She set down her cup and picked at the fruit and sweetmeats set before her.  With the exception of the fruit all of the food was quite strange, but she found it fairly tasty.  However, she found that she did not have much of an appetitive.  She was too tense.  Waiting for the pharaoh to make his move was a nerve-wracking ordeal.

 

“Wine,” said the pharaoh, pointing to the pitcher.

 

“Wine?” echoed Melissa she was unfamiliar with the word and it took her a few seconds to realize that the pharaoh was attempting to teach her more of his language.

 

“Wine,” repeated Wosret.  He had hit upon the language lesson as a way of reducing the tension.  He had heard from one of the younger concubines that the savage seemed very interested in learning as much about her new language and culture as she possibly could.  He found that a little strange in a barbarian, but it was possible way to relax her. 

 

“Wine,” the savage repeated again.  Wosret nodded and then named a few other items.  The girl responded quickly and he realized that she probably already understood these words.  He changed the subject, pointing next to himself.  “Wosret,” he said.

 

Melissa nodded.  “Pharaoh Wosret,” she said. 

 

The pharaoh smiled.  He pointed at her and raised his eyebrows.  “Melissa,” she responded.  “Melissa Gallant.”

 

The pharaoh nodded again and repeated what she had said, running all of the words together.  “Melissagallant.”

 

Melissa realized that her words were meaningless to people used to a language where every name actually meant something.  Wosret meant “Powerful One,” and Queen Isetnofret’s name translated as “Isis is Beautiful.”  And so she tried to translate, giving the meaning of her name as best she could. 

 

She pointed to herself again, said “Melissa,” and then pointed to one of the honey cakes on the table and said the word for honey.  The pharaoh nodded again, seeming to understand.  But she was not quite finished.  She said the word for honey again and then made a buzzing noise and moved her hand about, imitating a bee.  The pharaoh looked puzzled for a few seconds and then smiled.  Nodding he said “honey bee,” giving her the meaning of her name in Egyptian.  Now for the hard part.  “Gallant,” she said.  And stood up adopting what she hoped was an intrepid pose. 

 

This concept appeared too complex.  The pharaoh misinterpreted her pantomime.  “Fierce,” he said.  “Fierce Honey Bee.”

 

Melissa nodded.  “Close enough,” she thought.  “Fierce” was one of the few abstract words she knew.  She gave the pharaoh a smile and nodded her approval.  After that the anxiety that had plagued her ever since she had entered the pharaoh’s bedchamber left her.  They became teacher and student, with the pharaoh showing a strong aptitude for the classroom.  Melissa actually found herself enjoying the session.  She would have enjoyed it more had she not been naked to the waist and in the presence of a man she knew she was meant to please sexually. 

 

As the session wore on, she drank more of the wine.  It seemed to help relax her, and as the pharaoh took no actions that she considered inappropriate she became even more relaxed.  Thus it was that she was quite willing to cooperate when the pharaoh gently led her to his bed and indicated that she should lie down. 

 

Heart beating rapidly, Melissa climbed onto the bed.  This was the moment of truth.  Should she meekly give in or assert her right to choose her sexual partner?  The pharaoh’s next command surprised her, however.  Instead of removing the small amount of clothing she wore he walked away from her and took a small corked jar from a shelf.  Returning to the bed he uncorked the jar and indicated that she should lie on her stomach.  Mystified Melissa complied. 

 

A few seconds later she felt the right hand of the pharaoh between her shoulder blades and the other in the small of her back.  She shivered at his touch, but he made no attempt to fondle her.  Instead he began to move his hands slowly over her, spreading sweet scented oil over her skin.  As his hands gently massaged her, Melissa felt an erotic tingle course over her body.  Incredibly, she was on the verge of becoming aroused at the first touch of the Egyptian ruler’s hands.  Controlling herself, she folded her arms beneath her chin and breathed slowly and deeply.  As the massage continued she felt all the tension and fear drain from her body.

 

Wosret moved his fingers over her back in small circular motions.  Slowly he worked his was down her body, skipping over her shapely buttocks and continuing with her legs.  His fingers moved gently, working the oil into her skin.   Never at any time during the first part of the massage did he become aggressive.  His fingers flowed over her, eliciting an incredibly erotic sensation.  It was all Melissa could do not to arch her back as his fingers kneaded her supple flesh.  When he undid her kilt and removed it, she did not so much as protest.  Now he focused on her derriere, stretching and caressing her satin skin and then moving his hands the full length of her body from shoulders to calves. 

She bit back a moan of pleasure as he moved his hands in long smooth stokes, spreading oil the length of her legs.  Then he moved his hands to the inside of her thighs.  As his fingers moved toward the apex of her legs Melissa almost jumped off the table, but held herself there as he approached her nether region and then moved away. 

Wosret returned his attention to her back and shoulders.  He was pressing harder now, massaging her muscles firmly and sliding his hands to the sides so that he lightly touched the edge of her breasts where they bulged out from beneath her body.  This time Melissa felt no need to move away.  What was happening to her was pure pleasure.  She did not want it ever to stop. 

Then he moved back to the small of her back, just above the swell of her backside.  He concentrated there for several minutes relaxing her spine and letting all of the fear and tension she had felt flow out of her.  As she relaxed he moved his hands higher, all the way to her neck.  His hands encircled her throat, working the oil beneath her dark brown mane.  As Melissa gave a little moan of pleasure, he tugged on her shoulder, prompting her to turn over. 

Unresisting, Melissa allowed herself to be placed on her back.  Wosret moved his fingertips to her eyes, and gently closed them.  Melissa lay quietly, her breasts rising and falling in anticipation as she waited for the pharaoh to continue. 

Standing to the side, he placed one hand just above her mound of Venus and the other just between her breasts.  He began to move his hands over the entire region in between, coating her pelvic region, her flat belly, and the area just below her breasts with oil.  Then he slid his hands down over her hips to her upper thighs and then her lower legs.  Moving his hands upward from her calves he shifted them over her legs to her inner thighs and slowly worked his way toward her throbbing vulva.  By this time Melissa was thoroughly aroused.  Every touch of the pharaoh’s hands sent erotic signals through her and she had to bite her lips to keep from screaming in excitement. Just as she was sure that she was going to cry out he moved his hands upward, just below her breasts, and then over the curve of her magnificent bosom, outlining each breast with a light touch and then using only the tips of his fingers, delicately circling each areola.

Melissa gave a low moan.  Her hips rose involuntarily as she responded to the erotic massage.  Her vagina was so damp that she feared she would give away her state of excitement.  “I’m going to wet myself,” she thought. 

She felt Wosret climb onto the bed with her.  He positioned himself at her head with his knees on either side of her face and leaned forward, moving his hands from her breasts to her vulva.  Tantalizingly, he stopped just short of touching her most sensitive regions.  Melissa felt an almost overwhelming urge to grab his hands, and force them to touch her breasts and vulva.  From within her she felt an orgasm building.  The strength of the sensation surprised her.  “My god,” she thought, “I’m going to climax and he hasn’t even really touched me!”  She began to pant as the feeling built, her breath coming in harsh gasps.  Then suddenly her body shook as it sought sexual release.  A cry of pure pleasure and passion bust from her lips and she arched her pelvis upward, inviting penetration.

But Wosret acted as if he hadn’t even noticed.  Instead, he began to massage her rib cage, bringing his hands up and over her breasts, lifting them and then finally fully cupping her nipples and squeezing her breasts.  Melissa’s nipples were so hard that she screamed in ecstasy as his fingers tweaked each of her tender buds.  She arched herself upward begging him to apply more pressure. 

The pharaoh complied, pushing the soft yet firm flesh upwards and towards one another, spreading the oil liberally over her incredibly sensitized breasts.  Leaning farther forward, he moved down toward her belly, sweeping his hands in slow movements as she did so and then returning to her breasts once more.  Melissa gasped as a second orgasm shook her body. 

Wosret leaned right over her now, expending his reach to her vulva.  For the first time he touched the most sensitive region of her anatomy, his fingers applying gentle pressure to her clitoris, which was fully erect and begging for attention.  His mouth just over her breasts, the pharaoh blew gently on each nipple.  The combined sensation sent another mini-orgasm through Melissa’s body.  Moaning in pleasure she spread her legs.  The offer was unmistakable, but Wosret seemed to ignore it.  Instead he continued the massage, shifting his position so that he was to the side where he could watch her swollen breasts rise and fall. 

Bending his head he took her right nipple in his mouth and swirled his tongue over it.  As Melissa groaned in excitement he switched back and forth between each nipple, while at the same time rubbing his fingers lightly back and forth over her vulva.  Melissa’s body began to shake uncontrollably as still another orgasm surged through her.  She was quite ready when the pharaoh moved his mouth from her nipples to her mouth. 

Their mouths locked, tongues intertwining.  Melissa’s hands encircled the pharaoh’s body pulling him closer.  She was fully ready for him to make love to her, but he was not finished with her yet.  Breaking the kiss, he gently lowered her to the bed again, and taking her face in both his hands, caressed it lightly, moving his fingers from her jaw line to her temples.  Melissa’s fingers sought the pharaoh’s manhood.  She wanted him inside her, although she knew that this was a dangerous invitation.  Her fertility cycle was at its peak.  Any sexual relations would have an excellent chance of impregnating her.  But Wosret was not ready for that yet.  Instead, he moved his mouth to her nether region.  As his tongue touched the swollen lips of her vulva Melissa screamed in unbridled passion. 

As her sexual energy peaked, her vagina contracted violently, sending a squirt of vaginal lubricant shooting from her vagina.  A powerful orgasm surged through her once again.  “Oh God,” Melissa moaned.  “It’s time.  It’s time.” 

As his tongue slipped between the folds of her vulva she screamed again, arching her body in clear invitation, but Wosret continued his gentle stimulation driving her to a sexual peak she had never before experienced.  Again and again orgasms shook her body.  Then and only then did he move between her parted thighs.  Her scream as he entered her surpassed all previous ejaculations.  Wrapping her long legs about his waist she pulled him deep within her, slamming her body against his in an attempt to force his seed deep within her.  When he finally climaxed they lay locked together panting like two horses that had been ridden too hard, before falling into a deep and exhausted sleep.
