The Ultimatum
Durotan/orc x fem reader. This chapter is SFW
โBut father, please? He canโt possibly fit into any linens the kingdom has. Heโs larger than any of us.โ
You protest in frustration as the man before you furrowed his brows at your reasoning for your plea: to bestow the chieftain with his preferred armor.
โFather listen. We canโt have him before our king without any clothing heโsโฆโ
You had to stop yourself from spilling too much information.
โHeโs received his bath. Heโs anatomically correct.โ
You explain very abruptly and calmly, not to tip your father off and you were surprised the guards had kept it secret as well. No matter the case you knew you had to make this orc presentable and you werenโt counting out his own comfort to boot. He was massive, at least nine feet tall if you were guessing. Far much larger than even the burliest of human men. After much recourse your father finally made a decision.
โFine. You may return the orcs belongings to him. Armor only. I canโt have such a large threat waltzing around these corridors with axe in hand.โ
You gave him a prominent nod in agreement. He was right. There was really no need for his weapons. Hurried you ran to the castles smithy who was hoarding the orcs belongings. Once you retrieved his plates you made your way back to the bathing corridors where Durotan still stood dripping wet and wrapped in furs.
โHere nowโฆ letโs get you dry and into your armor.โ
He releases his firm grip from the furs as you unravel him. His chest heaves as he breaths in the thin air of the castle. Water droplets slowly roll over his tensed muscles as he continues to flinch a bit at your every move. Your arms can barely reach over his back as you helped him dry off. You felt your eyes trying their best not to wander downwards to the thick dangling mass of a cock he had. Still, you allowed your eyes to feast upon the rest of him, standing handsomely and proud as you helped guide him into his armor. His bold armor made him look impressively larger than he already was.
Your fingers traced the fur linings, fluffing it out and whisping away any hay or debris left from when they had drug him across the floor in the dungeon. Standing back you take a few moments to admire him. His tack had been replaced all except the trinkets you still had that were once braided and embedded in his thick luscious hair.
โKneel down for a moment.โ
You hum with a small smile as the massive form before you turns away from you and his this mane lowers to your reach. Once again your fingers began to dig into his scalp, each time your finger tucking in another thick strand of his hair with the main braid you were forming down the center of his head. You knew nothing about what their braids meant but for this instance all those years of braiding your siblings hair were not to go to waste.
โThere now. Much more presentable wouldnโt you say?โ
He stood for a moment just looking at you before turning towards the looking glass and admiring himself.
โPresentable. Hmmโฆ what do you think I look like?โ
His eyes flashed towards you, gleaming for approval.
โI think you look very handsome.โ
You can feel the heat rise to your cheeks on the end of your statement.
โAlright then, you are now presentable enough to go before our king.โ
You hummed happily, now knowing how even headed he actually was, surely your king could come to some compromise. Durotan followed you, accompanied by several guards of course but they left him unchained to soften his appearance. Once you reached the high court room, you could hear the gasps and chatter amongst the kingdoms people.
Your king ordered as everything came to a quiet stand still. You escorted Durotan to the front of the kings court and kneeled before him, Durotan following suit. He wanted and needed to get back to his clan and if he had to submit to this king for freedom, heโd do so.
โFar too long weโve been at warโฆ Chieftain. And now here you are in front of my court.โ
The king spoke delicately yet sternly as he looked into Durotanโs eyes.
โTell me young orcโฆ what will bring peace amongst the orcs and the humans hmm? We grow weary and Iโve lost many men. How many more lives must be at stake?โ
Durotan inhaled deeply, setting his eyes on you for a brief moment before addressing your king.
โThere is one thingโฆ one thing that could end the fighting. If orcs and humans could somehow join forces, we could rule this world together.โ
โIโll not have it. I rule this realm orc and your defense is to share that honor? I dare not!โ
The king rose from his thrown and began to walk closer to Durotan. The chieftain let out a heavy sigh. He knew what the answer to his resolution would be. Again his eyes flicked to you, then back to your king.
The kingdomโs people gasped and began to whisper frantically as the king raised a brow.
โThis woman. I want her to join my clan. She helped me. I want her to go with me. Rest assured, there will be no more attacks from the Frost Wolves. Iโll give you my word.โ
