Chapter 5: Her Screams We Hear in Our Dreams
A/N: Again I greatly apologise for the late update, I've decided to update on my days off (two a week) and for each of the next few chapters they are going to be related to Hespith's poem. As the title of this one shows her description of the sixth day the next will be the seventh and so on. Also they will be getting more and more graphic with each chapter so if you want to read that (and are of age) they'll be on AFF. And finally if you want to see more of Elyssa's companions points of view, feel free to let me know via reviews or inboxing me on this account.

"Speech"
****** Flashback *****
Screams reverberated throughout the deep roads and they came from the female elvhen that was trapped inside of her own body. Elyssa's head thrashed from side to side, her mouth widened in a perpetual grimace of pain and her back arched greatly. "Calm lethallan, just a few more days and it will be over." A few more days? First you change me into a monster and now you tell me that I have to endure this for days?! She thought viciously. Emma shem'nan Tamlen. Ma emma harel.
The only thing that was in her field of vision was the ceiling of the cave, everything else around her was a blur. The purring of her two creatures could be heard from either side of her form but they were only a dull noise compared to the thundering of her blood in her ears. Even the roar of the spawn around them was almost silent to her.
Tamlen had been guarding the entrance of their cavern for what had been hours now, protecting his changing mate from the unwanted advances of his fellow darkspawn. He'd only recently moved over next to her, his hand brushing over her forehead and through her hair in what seemed to be an ill form of comfort. But if she was being really honest with herself she'd admit that she didn't even want his advances, as much as she'd wanted them earlier.
*****************************************************************
"Ow... My neck." Elyssa groaned as she awoke from her induced slumber, her hands automatically rubbing her bruised throat. She glanced about the cave as everything from the night before came back to her in a rush. Picture after picture flashed in her mind. The attack from the spiders, her collapse into Tamlen's arms and finally his admission of his betrayal. "TAMLEN!" She roared her voice echoing in the enclosed cavern.
"Lethallan you're awake. At last my love." His voice came from the shadows. His strange green eyes glowing in the infinite darkness. Why is he doing this to me? I thought he loved me. Was it all a lie? Of course it was. Elyssa you idiot. You had a great thing going with Alistair. Why were you such a fool? Tamlen was the past! Alistair was your future! Well... I guess Tamlen will be my future too. I don' t think there's a cure for poison by darkspawn.
He came closer to her, kneeling next to her. She tried to jerk upwards but found her body couldn't move without sending pain rippling through her. "Agh," she ground out. "Stay still Elyssa you don't want to cause any unecessary strain." He held her down, his hand resting over her ribcage. Her heart pounded in her chest. "Just kill me now Tamlen, I might as well be dead. I'm going to turn into a monster and it won't be me, just a creature that will bring destruction and pain to everyone. Even you." The true agony she was feeling only made her voice break.
"But you won't lethallan, look at me. I'm still the person I was, but better. I'm stronger, faster, immortal and you will be too." He straddled her as he said this. "You'll be even greater than I, the mother of our children. The birth of a new breed of darkspawn. A spawn of ghoul and elvhen mother both. Can't you see it now?" His face nuzzled into her neck as he said this. A familiar move to her that always seemed to weaken her resolve.
Even now she could feel her will crumbling. A family, it was what they'd always wanted but could never have. Her keeper had forbidden it, she had told Elyssa just before they'd been to the ruins that changed things forever. "You are kin Elyssa. You have had your flirtation with Tamlen and I have allowed that when I should not have. But it is not to go further. You are promised to another clan and will be with him at the next meeting of the clans. You are not to taint yourself." But now they were away from the confines of their clan, away from their prying eyes. Just the two of them. Forever. She couldn't deny it was tempting. Very tempting.
"Trust me, Elyssa, my heart belongs only to you. It always has and always will." He brushed their noses against each other before bringing his mouth down to hers, cutting off any protests she might have had. She could feel his tongue brushing against her lips practically forcing them apart. He immediately took all control of the kiss, of her. She could feel all of his desire and lust for her in that one kiss and when he ground his hips into hers she could tell exactly what he needed in that one moment.
His hands made quick work of her clothing, stripping her of everything before moving gently along her body. His hands found their way to her most private of places but halted mid voyage. He froze a look of anger slowly spreading across his face. Oh no, I always promised he'd be my first. I broke that promise when I lied with Alistair. Fear quickly replaced her lust as a growl rippled through his chest. "You promised me we would lose it TOGETHER!" He roared over her, his hand crashing into the ground next to her head.
Her animals woke with a start, immediately facing the two of them. She shook her head at them, silently begging them to stay out of it. Does he mean he's still a...? "I never lay with anyone! I saved myself for you and you alone!" His teeth were bared and she only now noticed just how sharp they were. "It was supposed to be me. ME making you bleed for our love just as I've bled for you." He glared at her for a moment before sighing. "I'm sure I'll forgive you soon enough, but for now I'll let you lie here with nothing to hide your shame. Let this be your punishment for lying with another. Stay here while I keep guard. Seth, Shadow! Keep her warm. I won't let you die on me."
******************************************************************
It had seemed like days ago, but it had only been a few hours. Numerous darkspawn had caught scent of her and each he'd disposed of with ease. "Get away from me. I don't want you, I want Alistair." She snarled through the pain. "I know you don't really mean that lethallan, you'll feel soon enough that we were never meant to be apart. As much as that shem wanted you to believe otherwise." His hand moved from its perch on top of her head and onto the skin of her bare stomach. "It will be you and I against the world my love."
Alistair's P.O.V
He'd been restless all of the night. Dream after dream had plagued him until he couldn't tell what was real anymore. He'd had one dream where Zevran had convinced Wynne and Sten to join him in what he'd called an Antivan Whorehouse Surprise. Leliana had somehow swapped personalities with Morrigan and was skulking gloomily around the camp. But it was the latest dream that he'd had that was what he couldn't decide if it was reality or just a nightmare brought on by drinking Oghren's special home brew.
Alistair stood by helplessly as the scene unfolded before him, that would terrify him for as long as he lived. Elyssa and the ghoulish-elf were surrounded by the glare of the small fire that had been cast in the centre of the cave. They were writhing in what could only be described as sensual bliss. He couldn't move a muscle, he saw someone come and stand beside him, a brunette man with a gold earing. Duncan! From the looks of him he was still dressed in the armor that he had died in. "Duncan I..." Alistair started. Duncan merely shook his head. The scene changed before them to an image of the elf holding Elyssa in his arms with both of their hands wrapped around her protruding stomach.
"Watch the both of them together Alistair. You must save her from him lest he change her into one of his kind, forever. I will not allow you to sit idly by while he turns my daughter and your beloved into a monster that will destroy the world. Now awaken!" Alistair woke with a start, Duncan's voice still echoing in his ears. They'd camped for the night just outside the entrance to the Deep Roads. Just before they'd left for their journey into the caverns full of darkspawn they had been stopped by a red haired dwarf named Oghren. Alistair rushed over to him, giving him the details of the place he had seen in his dream. "Aye, I know the place yer talkin' about. But no dwarf has been there for over a hundred years. Even Branka wasn't fool enough to go that far into the Deep Roads, and she's as foolish as they come." He thought for a long moment before nodding to himself. "Aye I'll take you there as long as we're able to look for Branka while we're lookin' for yer woman."
A/N: Yeeaaah.... that was my first time writing a lime if you can call it that I hope it wasn't too bad.
