Everlasting Dream

Chapter 79: Trapped

[Aster]

The Silverfrost family emerged from the gnarled, ancient roots of the tree they had slept beneath, stepping out into the eerie darkness that hung heavily over the silent forest. Yet another day had begun, but the sun's feeble rays struggled to penetrate the dense branches above, leaving everything in an ominous, suffocating shadow.

The cold, damp air pressed down on them as they cautiously made their way forward, the ground uneven and treacherous underfoot. Moss squelched beneath their boots, and rotting leaves crunched with each careful step. Soft breaths clouded in front of their faces before dissipating into the gloom.

Aster walked beside his sister, holding her small hand in his. The boy felt completely refreshed for the first time in four long days. All traces of his previous exhaustion had vanished overnight, and now he felt ready to face any challenge the dark forest might throw at him. His golden eyes scanned the area around them with renewed alertness and focus. 'No more sleeping problems, hehe,' Aster grinned happily, gently squeezing Silvia's hand. She returned the gesture, her tiny fingers intertwining with his.

Nivalis led the way, with Silvia and Aster following close behind her. All three wore disguise cloaks, the twigs and leaves attached to the fabric rustling softly with each step. Their faces were mostly hidden; a thin cloth covered everything except their colorful eyes. They walked slowly, deliberately, trying to keep their footsteps as silent as possible on the damp forest floor.

Like always, Aster had mana ignited inside his chest in case he needed to protect himself and the girls. The pain it caused was unbearable — every breath, every heartbeat, and every move of his young body felt excruciatingly painful. But the boy had gotten used to it over time, probably thanks to his winter fishing trips when he kept himself warm using mana, even if it hurt like hell. It was his only way to not freeze to death out there in the cold, and with repetition, the pain became more bearable, if still unpleasant.

However, Silvia was still getting used to the intense discomfort of having mana in her body all the time, as Aster often saw her golden eyes welling with tears. To her credit, though, the girl never once complained about it, staying strong and enduring it for their family's sake as they made their way through the dark forest. She, too, wanted to protect them.

This method of storing mana within themselves also had its advantages, luckily, and not merely because it allowed them to cast their first few spells almost instantly without spending time converting mana for a spell. The best part was that they had to do a mana invasion thing to each other.

Feeling each other inside their bodies and connecting in such an intimate way was amazing, indeed. Aster loved every second of it, especially how Silvia reacted to his mana invading her petite body. Her cute little moans, the way her hips would writhe against him, and how her breathing would quicken never failed to give him a deep sense of satisfaction.

He was no better, though; every time her icy mana invaded his young body in return, Aster would get painfully hard, his small cock throbbing almost unbearably. Like how it is right now, since just before they got out from the roots of that massive tree, Silvia did her mana invasion to him, filling him with her chilling mana, which meant he had to endure this boner for the entire day.

But at least Aster knew he wouldn't have any trouble sleeping today. Thanks to his mother's special 'massage' last night, he fell into a deep slumber right after she finished with him. The mere thought of what she did caused a faint blush to spread across his young face; a stupid smile graced his pink lips that, luckily, nobody saw, thanks to the cloth covering it. 'Thanks, Mom,' Aster thought, glancing at her back as she walked before them, her bow always in hands, ready to protect her children.

The only thing he was concerned about was that an erection made spell-casting harder due to the focus it required. However, Aster hoped it wouldn't be a big problem today. 'It's not that bad. I will be fine,' he reassured himself, trying to push away those naughty thoughts about what his mother did last night. 'If only I could ask Mom to massage it away in the morning, after our mana-thing with Silvia... That would be great,' Aster sighed quietly, knowing she'd refuse because Silvia would see everything.

...

The day dragged on slowly as they did nothing but walk through the godforsaken forest that seemed to stretch forever, trying desperately to find a way out. But no matter how many hours passed, the forest still looked the same in every direction, silent and dark.

Aster's young legs began to ache from walking for so long without rest. Silvia shivered badly and was most likely exhausted, too, but they kept pushing through exhaustion and discomfort. The faster they found a way out, the better.

'At least we made a lot of progress today. Maybe we are closer to the edge now?' Aster thought hopefully, his golden gaze flicking around. Unfortunately, nothing indicated such a thing — just more of the same oppressive forest in every direction.

A sudden noise, a way too familiar clicking sound, broke the silence. Nivalis and Silvia looked around anxiously, but Aster was terrified to hear this sound again. That plant-like creature he had seen during his first fishing trip, that creepy thing with its jaw moving weirdly and making an awful clicking noise, was here now, nearby.

The boy could already feel his heart pounding hard in his chest, blood pumping loudly in his ears. "Oh gods, it's the same creature I saw near the river... we need to hide, quick," Aster whispered frantically, pulling his sister towards the tree with roots large enough for them to fit into. "Mom, hurry," he quietly urged right after Silvia crawled inside, gesturing for their mother to follow. She quickly nodded and climbed in behind her daughter; Aster was the last to enter.

The space between these roots was narrower than any other they had found before, but luckily, they managed to squeeze themselves inside just fine. It took some wiggling and squirming to settle comfortably, but eventually, they all found a position that worked well enough to wait until the danger passed. Their silver heads faced the entry, so it would be easier to get outside.

The clicking noise grew closer with each passing second until Aster heard something heavy approaching and started walking around. Loud, labored breathing followed those heavy steps. 'Oh shit... please go away. Go away,' Aster pleaded frantically in his mind, his heart wildly racing as he held Silvia tightly in his arms.

Using the mana she had walked with for so many hours, Silvia put her arm as high above her head as she could and focused on a spell blocking the entrance, much like she did when goblins attacked their old home, but smaller since this entrance was much smaller, too.

She concentrated hard, her golden eyes locked onto the opening. A moment later, ice began to form at the edges, slowly creeping upward until it sealed the entrance shut with a thick, icy wall, leaving a tight gap in the corner for air to get inside. The entire process was almost silent, with only the occasional faint crack of ice being created. She created the ice halfway through the entry to make the ice not too visible from the outside.

'Good job, Silvia,' Aster praised his sister in his mind, giving her tiny shoulders an encouraging squeeze and feeling her body tremble. He was genuinely proud of her. Nivalis, meanwhile, held both their spears in her hands, ready to attack if that thing found them. The clicking noise grew even closer, and the heavy footsteps continued, echoing off the surrounding trees.

He pressed his ear tightly against the rough bark of the root, listening carefully to the sounds outside their hiding spot. He could hear the creature moving around and sniffing the air, its footsteps thudding against the forest floor as it walked. His golden eyes were wide with fear as he looked up at the entrance, silently praying that the monster would simply move on and leave them alone.

But it didn't. The creature seemed to be searching for something, and it wasn't hard to guess what. 'Come on... only try to break through it,' Aster frowned angrily, mimicking his sister, and moved his hand above his head towards the icy wall. He began igniting more mana inside his body, feeling the heat growing within him, enough to unleash the roaring fire the moment it dared to get inside their shelter.

It wasn't a spell that Aster was particularly good at, and he knew it would likely burn his hand in the process — an enlarged, harder-to-control version of the one he used to make a fire near the river. But right now, that was hardly a concern. He was ready to do whatever it took without hesitation if it meant saving the girls. He was their last line of defense if things went wrong.

The creature let out a low, threatening growl as the creature drew closer to a hiding spot. Its heavy footsteps crunched the dead leaves and twigs on the forest floor. The beast was so close now that they could smell its foul, rotten scent through the small gap in the icy barrier, almost making him gag. By some miracle, Aster could hold back his vomit, as did Silvia and Nivalis.

'Alright, little guy. How about this,' Silvia thought, placing both her soft palms on Aster's pale thighs and gently pushing his hips away to get some space. But there wasn't enough room in their cramped hiding spot to move him even slightly. Then she tried moving her head away instead, but the only way was towards the ground, which smelled like mud and moss, not at all pleasant.

After a minute of trying different positions, the girl gave up and returned her face to her little brother's warm thing. But when she did so, for a fleeting moment, her soft pink lips accidentally brushed against his tip, smearing that strange, gooey substance all over them. 'Ew...' she grimaced silently. Not wanting it anywhere on her face, Silvia's small tongue darted to lick away the liquid, cleaning her lips. She realized that she should have wiped it off only when she did so. 'I'm stupid...' she thought.

The taste was a bit salty, but not bad at all. It's been years since Silvia ate something salty, only back in the village when she was five. 'Oh... It tastes kinda good,' the girl's golden eyes widened in surprise as she smacked her lips quietly beneath the blanket. It was a strange, new taste she couldn't describe. 'No, bad. It tastes bad,' she scolded herself internally, shaking her head. 'This is my brother's... thing. I shouldn't have done that...' Silvia thought, ashamed of herself.

Instead, she just focused on trying not to think about how it felt to have his warm shaft resting against her face. Or how she breathed against those soft, delicate balls of his, inhaling their sweaty, intoxicating scent. 'It's getting hard to breathe...' she thought, her chest moving up and down as she took slow, measured breaths.

Each breath Silvia took made her brother's balls contract slightly, and his penis pulse with need against her soft cheek. 'When will it finally go small and soft?' she wondered, feeling the constant throbbing of his shaft. 'Maybe I should pinch it?' the girl pondered and, after a moment, squeezed his sensitive tip between her thumb and index finger.

It caused him to jerk and grunt in pain way too loudly, making Silvia instantly regret what she had just done. 'Sorry...' she mouthed silently in the darkness, not letting out a single whisper. Aster's hips moved as if he still felt the pain of her pinch, his erection sliding across her young face. 'I'm sorry. Please be quieter...'

Remembering how their mother used to kiss away their bruises to make the pain go away, Silvia decided to do the same for her little brother. She reluctantly brought his throbbing penis closer to her mouth and gently pressed her lips against the slippery tip in a tender kiss, tasting that salty, gooey liquid again. 'There, better?' she wondered, looking up with her golden eyes as if expecting him to yell quietly at her, but Aster remained surprisingly silent.

For the entire second, his little tip kept throbbing against his sister's pink, glistening lips, coating them with his warm, slimy fluid. The girl felt his wrinkled foreskin slide over them. 'At least he's quiet and stopped moving his hips,' she sighed quietly in relief, moving her mouth away from it, a string of saliva connecting the tip to her lower lip for a moment.

But when she did so, Aster resumed writhing, his hips moving and rubbing his erection against her face again like before. 'Alright, you little troublemaker. You want more?' Silvia thought, kissing his penis head once more to make the pain go away—little pecks, just like their mother used to do when she kissed their bruises. Her soft lips made barely noticeable wet sounds every time they touched his sensitive skin.

She didn't know why, but the girl liked her little brother's taste. It was something new and exciting for her receptors. 'Just stay calm, okay?' she pleaded in her mind, smooching his slick tip repeatedly. And that seemed to do the trick. As long as she kept kissing it gently, Aster's hips stayed still, not rubbing his erection against her face anymore; not a single groan escaped his mouth.

After kissing her little brother's mushroom for a few minutes, Silvia decided it was enough. But when she tried to move away from it, Aster groaned in displeasure and started squirming again, much to her annoyance. 'No, no, stay still. I don't have much space here for you to move like this,' the girl huffed quietly, bringing his penis head back between her delicate lips. But instead of kissing it this time, she wrapped her soft lips around the little tip and held it there, hoping it would work too. And it did.

Aster's member throbbed rhythmically in between her lips in the minutes that followed. More of that warm, gooey stuff leaked into her mouth, forcing Silvia to swallow it quietly, a gulp here and there. 'Why is this so tasty?' she wondered, feeling how much he pulsated and how much warmth it radiated.

Curiously, the girl's tiny, slippery tongue flicked against the head of his penis, tasting more of his warm, gooey stuff. Just a gentle lick, barely touching the little tip of his penis. Aster groaned at that touch, and Nivalis quickly shushed him, but Silvia could swear he didn't sound like it hurt. It was similar to when her mana filled him, a feeling she knew he enjoyed. 'He likes it?' she wondered, slightly confused.

Her pink tongue darted out again, giving the head another lick, this time lingering on his tip as she tasted the salty, gooey fluid that coated it, feeling how soft and velvety his penis felt. Another quiet groan escaped her brother, and this time, there was no doubt. He liked what she was doing.

'Huh...' Silvia thought, her face blushing heavily in the darkness at this realization. 'Well... he trembles a lot less right now, so... if it helps him, I guess,' she wondered hesitantly, opening her mouth a little wider and sliding his tip inside. The warm fluid continued leaking onto her tongue as she wrapped her young lips around the tiny shaft just beneath the head.

Silvia's hands continued to hold Aster's thighs firmly while his penis rested between her lips. Occasionally, her tongue moved slowly over his tip, savoring his taste. She felt the heat radiating from it and how it throbbed in rhythm within her mouth. 'This is... not a big deal, right? I'm just helping him,' she reassured herself internally.

Then, barely noticeable movements of Aster's hips appeared; he started rocking them back and forth gently, pushing his penis deeper into Silvia's mouth before pulling back; the thing slid against his sister's tongue inside her mouth.

'Don't move, you idiot. Mom will notice...' Silvia thought, gently grabbing Aster's soft, delicate balls and tugging them down to make him stop his movements, her fingers squeezing the tender flesh gently but firmly. The girl felt two round shapes in her palm, each testicle moving slightly when she touched them.

He stopped thrusting, but for as long as her hand remained on his sack. As soon as she released it, Aster's hips started rocking back and forth again, seeking more of that pleasurable sensation from between her lips. 'Alright, I will just keep holding them,' Silvia sighed, keeping her fingers wrapped around his balls to prevent him from moving.

She continued swirling her tongue slowly over the shape and texture of her brother's penis, exploring it thoroughly while tasting the salty, gooey, warm substance that kept leaking onto her tongue. Every few minutes, she swallowed the liquid that built up in her mouth, actually enjoying how it tasted.

The girl could feel his shaft growing harder by the second, the veins bulging and pulsing beneath her lips as she suckled gently on his member. His testicles seemed to tighten in her palm, drawing closer to his body. 'What is happening?' Silvia wondered, feeling Aster's hand move into her silver hair, gently stroking her head as if encouraging her to keep going.

And like a good sister, she obeyed, licking and suckling gently on his throbbing shaft, her tongue swirling around the tip and tracing the veins on the sides. She felt him twitch in her mouth and heard his quiet grunts that he tried to silence.

Then Aster's entire body tensed, and his penis began twitching violently in Silvia's mouth, much to her surprise. The girl could feel his hairless balls draw up tightly against his body as they contracted desperately in her palm. She started massaging them gently, unsure if it hurt or not.

It felt incredibly strange and pleasurable for the girl to cup and caress Aster's soft testicles like this, marveling at how delicate they were beneath her fingers. 'Is it trying to release his seed?' Silvia wondered, remembering a similar throbbing from back near the river. It felt... weird, intense, and wrong in many ways, but... it was also a little... fun. Simply because she knew he liked what she did. 'Good thing he doesn't have any seed yet,' she thought, feeling a tiny bit proud that her mouth could make him feel this way.

A hint of a smile spread across her pink, glistening lips, and her golden eyes fluttered shut as the girl enjoyed the strange sensation in her mouth. After a few moments of Aster's penis twitching and convulsing against her tongue, it began to soften between her lips slowly. 'I guess that's it?' she wondered, feeling his tip rest on her tongue.

Aster's hand remained in her silver hair, gently patting her head. 'You're welcome, silly,' Silvia smiled in the darkness, enjoying how he caressed her head. She kept holding his softening member between her lips, her tongue lazily swirling around the wrinkled foreskin and tasting the remnants of that warm, gooey, and slightly salty fluid.

The girl had no idea for how long they stayed like this. She just felt herself dozing off with her little brother's penis resting between her parted lips. And her teeth didn't chatter this time, which she was grateful for.
