Chapter Three - "Of Hot and Forcing Violation"

     "M'lord de Valence!" 

     Catherine had barely licked the last of Edward de Valence's seed from her
lips when she heard someone yell outside Edward's baggage wagon.  Sir Edward de
Valence, her captor, heard it too and with wolf-like speed, he grabbed a piece
of cloth and forced it between Catherine's lips, gagging her.

     For Edward, there was no time to waste upon making Catherine D'Astier
comfortable.  If anyone knew he took a prisoner to ransom without the King's
permission, his very life may be forfeit.  He shoved his prisoner down and
quickly pulled a wool blanket and tapestry down over her.  The bulk of the
tapestry seemed to cover her little struggles and he could barely hear her
screams through the gag.

  	"Sir Edward de Valence!" the man called again.

     Edward pulled on his hose quickly before stepping out in the gray stained
morning.  A fine, misting rain greeted him coldly as he stood in the doorway.
At the edge of his camp, Richard Corfe, Edward's best man-at-arms and sergeant,
walked his horse through the mud escorting another man, the King's Herald. 
Richard still had the grime of battleground into his skin and his armor was
well worn while the herald, mounted on a light gray horse, looked as clean as
any bishop.

     "M'lord de Valence?" the herald asked, a grim look about him.

     "Yes."

     "His Majesty, King Henry the V, wishes your council immediately.  You may
find him in St. Martin's church."

     Barely had the words left the herald's lips than the man wheeled his horse
around and started back toward Harfleur.  The two men were silent until the
misting rain swallowed the herald.

     "How now, Richard?  Why such a grim face?" Edward asked.

     "I could not pry any words out of that man, m'lord.  His bearing is not
good and I fear what news you may hear," Richard replied, his clear blue eyes
now red with burden of war.

     Edward nodded, "The men taken care of?"

     "As well as can be, m'lord.  We have a roof over our head and a bit of
wine we found, but they are as starved as we are."

     Edward again nodded, "Water the wine down with this rain water.  I fear
that the devyl may have pissed in the river.  See what you can fill our bellies
with so long as it hasn't crawled from the sea.  Take a few of our archers
afield and see what fowl you can put on the spit."

     "M'lord."

     "And see to it this wagon is dragged to a suitable site within the walls. 
I will not have some errant French lick-pizzle steal what little comforts I
have.  Guard it well and let no one inside save me."

     Richard nodded, wiping his soggy, blonde hair out of his eyes.

     "Now I will see what the King has to say."

                                  -oOo-

     Catherine struggled once again at her bonds and once again was frustrated
by their effectiveness.  She was on her back once more and the rough wool
against her skin felt like thousands of fleas crawling over her breasts, belly
and legs.  The cold wood she lay upon was rough and chaffing and with her
wrists bound as they were behind her back, made her even more uncomfortable.

     But even more than that, Catherine felt an itch between her legs that she
could not sate.  It troubled her in many ways; chief amongst them was the idea
that she was wanting of Edward's manhood despite his ill treatment of her.  He
had not respected her station.  In fact, quite the opposite, as if she were a
common slattern.  However, no matter how she was treated by the English and how
detestable it was, there was no turning away from the fact that her quim was
wanting his touch.

     The wool was rough against her nipples as she squirmed.  Each movement, a
little blissful agony sparked within her womb and heated the embers there. 

     Catherine strained her hands down and her legs apart, knocking about the
empty bottle of wine Edward and her had shared, but her fingers could not
solace the need rising in her.  Her position and bindings worked against her.

     Then Catherine heard something and froze.

     Even beneath the blanket and tapestry, Catherine could hear the muffled
voices of men outside and their thumps against the wagon.  The thought of them
finding her both horrified and thrilled her and sent her passions rushing
through her like a wild fire.  Struggling, Catherine tried to assuage her need
with the heel of her foot but found that it would not but brush her swollen
lips, teasing herself.

     Catherine rocked her shoulders so that her nipples would enjoy the
friction against the wool.  Total rapture was so close yet still unreachable,
like a delicious quince hanging just at the fingertips' touch.  The smell of
her own natural perfume hung in the cloistered air beneath the blanket like an
exotic incense, exciting her more.  She rocked her hips and tried to rub her
thighs together, but to no end.
     Then Catherine felt the wagon jolt.  Her own mewls of need had drowned out
the sounds outside and left her isolated.  The wagon was now moving and she was
now very aware she was not alone.

     The rocking and jolting of the wagon across the muddy ground cause the
bottle to roll beneath Catherine's splayed legs.  She felt it's slender neck
against her thigh like the prick of an ardent lover.  Before the bottle could
roll away, Catherine trapped its base between her feet, aiming its slender neck
at her moistened quim.

     The baggage wagon jolted again.  The bottle slipped from her grasp.

	A moan of despair erupted from Catherine's lips as she sought to entrap the
bottle again.  She felt it's cool, smooth surface upon her thigh and began to
squirm around, hoping to roll it back to her grasping feet.  Undulating and
writhing, she felt the bottle roll toward her tied ankles.  With grunting
effort, she trapped the bottle again and tried to slowly point its neck towards
her quiff, holding the bottle firm over the larger bumps.

     The effort took great concentration but Catherine now had the lip of the
bottle against her own moistened lips, a prize so tempting she could not refuse
it's blissful invasion.  With one quick push, she rammed the bottle's neck
inside herself.

     The bottle filled Catherine, her slick muscles bearing down upon the glass
phallus as if she were possessed by a daemon.  Using her heels, she pumped the
bottle in and out of herself, fanning the fires within her, building her pyre
of ecstasy until it consumed her in rapture. . .

                                   -oOo-

     The destruction wrought on Harfleur by the English engines and cannon was
even more apparent in daylight.  This was the first time Edward had been within
the town walls since the night before.  His charge was the guarding of the
siege artillery and as the town surrendered, Edward had to maintain his vigil
until all the canon were safe behind the city walls.

     The smell of smoke still clung to the air, even in the misting rain.
Charred timbers of homes and stores poked up through the rubble like ribs of
a burnt carcass.  But most of town was spared ruin.

     St. Martin's bell tower stood like a lone sentinel over the town.  The
roof over the chancel had collapsed but the tower stood firm.  It was here that
King Henry had walked barefoot to give thanks for his victory and it was here
that he made plans for the future of his France.

     The men-at-arms bowed slightly to Edward as he mounted the steps to go
into the church, their faces grim.  He remembered the look on the faces of the
men-at-arms in England when he escorted Sir Thomas Grey to his audience with
the King.  The guards seemed to know what was to happen to the traitor Grey. 
They had the same look as the guards he just passed.

     John Duke of Bedford greeted Edward with a slight smile.  The wear of war
had turned his skin sallow and hair a dirty gray.  John was one of Edward's
mentor and had taken young Edward under his wing when Edward's father had died
on the end of a Scottish pike.

     "He awaits you in the tower," Bedford said in barely a whisper.

     The stairs were steep and each step made Edward's knees ache.  The cold,
misty rain seemed to bring out a man's infirmities, Edward thought to himself. 
He wondered if these thoughts crossed the minds of men walking up to the
gallows.

     The door to the tower was unattended and with a hesitant hand, Edward
turned the latch to open it. 
 
     "Come, gentle Edward de Valence, and stand with ourselves and advise,"
King Henry spoke as he stood before the open arches and peered out over
Harfleur cloaked in the mist.

     "My King," Edward bowed and moved beside him.

     For a moment, neither spoke but looked out at the rain and the rooftops
and the men below.  The King had a great cloak about him as he stared.  This
man was a soldier first and King second.  The heated lust for battle still
glowed in the man's eyes.

     "'Tis a cold and piercing mist, Edward, as cold as a blade.  Winter is
to come soon, I fear, and We must show France how to kneel."

     "Yes, my Lord."

     "To do this, France must take Us to her bosom like a mother.  France must
both love Us and fear Our resolve.  France must abide by God's and Our will. 
How shall we do this, Edward?"

	"Our swords must have lead points but sharp edges, my King."

     "Mercy will be our sword, Edward, but not without profit first.  France is
coffer enough for all, Edward."

     "Indeed."

     "Our debt to you, Edward de Valence, is great.  Or so my exchequer tells. 
Your service to Ourselves and England is great."

     "Thank you, My King."

     "So We will forgive any looting that you may have done despite Our
commands.  But you will remain here to watch over Our new prize until next
spring when We shall begin anew.  Ourselves will march to Calais and then to
England."

     "Thank you, My King."

     "There is still much to do, Edward.  The towers on the sea have not bowed
to Us and England.  You must remedy this.  You are well versed in the art of
siege, I am told and from what I have seen.  My brother Bedford will detail Our
plans for Harfleur.  You may go."

     Edward bowed again and started to leave.

     "Edward?"

     "Yes, my King."

     "As a man, was she worth the price?"

     Edward paused.

     "There is no price on vengeance that is not high."

                                -oOo-

     The house was near the town square and overlooked the Leure as it wound
it's way through the port.  Edward's baggage cart was in front as was two of
his men-at-arms.  Their faces were set against the cold of the drizzle.
 
     "As soon as I survey the quarters, we'll get this baggage in and gather
around a fire," Edward said, patting one of his men on the shoulder.

     The first floor was set slightly into the ground and the large doors in
front belayed the building's purpose.  As Edward stepped inside, his eyes
adjusting to the damp darkness, he saw that any stores this place had were gone
and only the lingering smells of tanned leather and suet remained.  The store
window was barred and there was but a broken stool and some scraps of leather
left.  Even the fireplace was dead.

     "First thing, Talbot, is to get a fire started in this place!  I am sure
there is enough wood in those wrecked buildings to build a decent one.  The
cart will go over there and our stores of powder and shot will fill this up
well."

     "Yes, m'lord," the man at arms answered tiredly.

     They made their way toward the back and up the narrow stairs to the second
floor.  Already his men had started dropping their personal gear and picking
their spots to lay.  The windows let in the cold, gray light and there was a
small, sputtering fire in the chimney.  Two of his wounded men lay on the floor
near it, huddled in their cloaks and sleeping their pain away. 
 
     The second story rooms themselves were well maintained and whitewashed.
There were two benches and a table as well as an oil lamp.  Through the windows
overlooking the gray-brown Leure, Edward could see his challenge towering over
the bay, curls of smoke and mist enwrapping it like a vampirish wraith.

     However, Edward's thoughts were upon the girl still bound in his baggage
wagon.
