Not All Artifacts Are Ancient (Patreon)

Alex carefully looked around. She scanned the nearby bushes to make sure nobody was spying on her. The satellite phone at her paws was the only connection to the outside the expedition she was a part of had available. She picked it up, then pushed a few buttons to select her boyfriend’s number. Tapping her paw on the ground, she waited for the communication device to make its connection and the familiar, echoey ringing noise to come from its earpiece.

“Alex? Is it you?” The person on the other end asked. “Yes!” She replied, her voice lowered. “I think today is the day!” She exclaimed and then looked over her shoulder to make once again sure nobody was listening in. “They’ve been guarding that patch of the forest the whole time we’ve been here. You were right about the information you deciphered from that mural. There has to be something about it!” She was fidgeting around, almost jumping off the ground as she excitedly gave her report. “So… what makes you think you can get there today?” Her boyfriend asked.

“They’re all busy watching my colleagues loading the plane. Checking all the crates to see we’re not taking any of their holy artifacts!” She explained. “They must assume I’ve given up. I’ll just pretend to be busy gathering up equipment from the forest and slip away when nobody is looking.” 

There was a second of silence before her boyfriend spoke up again. “Then this might be it!” He said and cleared his throat, the sound of papers shuffling around coming over the line. “So, remember how I taught you to take some live samples?” He asked and Alex quickly dismissed him. “Yes, yes, yes. I’ve practiced it and three happily potted plants here say I did it right!”

“Uh-huh.” Her boyfriend replied. “Alright. And don’t forget. It’s supposed to be a plant with many thick vines, growing on the ground. So don’t pick any of them hanging from trees. I’ll have a breakdown if you bring me a liana and all we can do is reenact Tarzan. As much as I would enjoy you being my Jane.” They both chuckled and Alex spoke up again. “Well… I do remember your scream that one time I let you go ham… was a pretty good impression!” She teased him. “There’s a good chance you’ll hear it again. I am so pent up… You have been gone for so long.” He replied with a sigh. “Now go! I’ll keep my fingers crossed. Two more days, I’ll be happy to see you, just come home safe!” As cheerful as he tried to sound, there was some concern he couldn’t suppress. Alex tried her best to comfort him. “Nothing can take down a tigress. And you know it. I’ll be back in your arms unscathed, I promise!”

After hanging up, Alex picked up a nearby crate and carried it towards the expedition’s plane. She couldn’t make it all the way to the hatch without almost bumping into a tall muscular zebra, a member of the local tribe. He cleared his throat and the tigress put the crate down in front of him, then opened it up so he could inspect it. “Hey, Justin!” She called out to a stressed looking colleague. “Can you take care of this one? I’ll get the next, I’m in a bit of a hurry.” He rushed over towards her. “Sure, Alex. I’ll make sure it gets loaded safely.” The tigress nodded at him and chirped a quick. “Thanks! You’re the best!”

Finally, her time had come. She dashed away from the group and ran into the thicker part of the forest. She had hidden her backpack containing the tools she needed, most importantly soft cloth bags filled with some soil to carry her secret treasure in. There was a smirk on her face, a sense of adventure. She was going to be Alex Marx, prodigy archeologist and smuggler, for science!

Quickly, she took her GPS receiver out and cross-checked her position with the paper map she was holding. She had penciled in the path she wanted to take. All she had to do now was walk as fast as her paws could and the dense jungle allowed. The closer she came to her goal, the more she felt on edge. What if she was wrong and the tribe still had some guards left behind to cut her off and send her back? She would have had to leave with her mystery unsolved!

Her heart was beating faster the shorter the distance between her and that secret spot on the map she had not been allowed to get close to became. She had no idea what was waiting for her, only that it must have been hidden under the jungle’s thick canopy. When her receiver beeped and a green light began flashing on it, she almost dropped the device. It meant she had arrived in the area she had programmed into it, but it also startled the tigress who wanted to avoid making any sound. She put the map and the little helper away to have her hands free and no distractions around as she began inspecting the local flora.

She spent a good half hour fighting her way through the undergrowth, identifying plants she had already seen many times before. Then suddenly, she felt a breeze passing through the forest, barely enough to move the humid hot air around her. However, it carried along a scent the tigress had never noticed before. She looked around, fully expecting a rose bush or other patch of flowers nearby. There was none, but it was hard for her to focus on anything other than that smell. 

Having gone on enough trips through the forest, finding sure footing for her was not a problem anymore, her legs were walking by themselves while she followed that most alluring scent. Every breath filling her lungs made her feel more invigorated and more aroused. This was worse than the one time she was around the sweaty zebra hunting party coming home after a long day. She could feel her panties getting damp and her nipples harden and pushing against her bra. There was no clear thought left on her mind. 

Time and distance lost all meaning to her until she suddenly noticed she was standing in near complete darkness. She looked up to reassure herself that she had not been walking around until nightfall. When she looked back down, she saw something that had not been there before. Besides the leaves, ferns, and small bushes covering the ground, she was suddenly surrounded by slowly moving, thick, green vines. They slithered around her like snakes. Her instincts were screaming at her to run away, but that primal urge was completely drowned out by that scent, those chemicals the plants around her had put out.

One of the vines came closer until it touched her paw and then slithered underneath it. Alex sighed when she felt how strangely soft it was, feeling more like a delicate freshly grown leaf than the thick mature vine of a plant. 

After making first contact with her, the plant considerably sped up. The sudden change was enough to startle the tigress. She tried to run, but the vines were already too close. One ankle was caught right as she lifted that paw off the ground, the other one didn’t even have a chance to take off. More vines rose from the ground around her. Alex yelped in surprise when they curled around her stomach and arms. She wanted to tear herself loose, to get away from that strange creature. No matter how soft those vines were on the outside, though, the intrepid archeologist felt as if steel cables were holding her down. 

It kept getting worse. Besides the thick plant arms holding her, smaller ones sprung up, too. She felt them tug on her clothes and her backpack. Her belt was torn away, the satchel on her back containing her equipment taken. Suddenly, she was completely disarmed, the tools she needed to get back to her expedition out of reach. Her panicked breaths carried more of the wonderful scent around her into her nose, and more of those plant pheromones into her lungs. The vines were caressing over her body like a strong lover’s arms. They pushed up her shirt, moved aside her bra, and exposed her breasts to the humid jungle air.

The shock and anger on the tigress’ face didn’t last for long. The thought of her being in danger was slowly pushed aside by another explanation. This was just the plant she was looking for. The zebra tribe’s secret. As she was lifted off the ground and one of the tentacle vines slithered into her pants to meet her own wet flower, she was certain this was just a pleasure the tribe didn’t want to share. She was helpless, only her head still free to move around. Looking down at herself, she could see the green mass move across her body. Her strong unknown lover was clumsy. Was it confused because she didn’t have hooves like the locals? Could it see color and was not used to her orange fur? The stripes should have been familiar!

Alex suddenly giggled and then moaned. She felt as if she was high, drunk, and super horny at the same time. It felt only natural when her pants were being pulled down and her shirt was lifted off her. Those clothes were just in the way of her being one with nature after all. She felt completely relaxed held by those strong arms, hanging off them like a gorgeous naked puppet, her fur slightly sweaty and clinging to her body, her curves nicely accentuated.

The only tension she felt was internal. It was the anticipation of not knowing what the strange plant lover that had swooped her off her paws was going to do next. Her vision was blurry when she peeked down at a tentacle getting closer to her crotch. It seemed to unfold like a flower with green petals. What it revealed was a strangely red appendage looking like… like a tongue? Alex blinked a few times and then she moaned. She couldn’t see what was happening, but she felt something soft and slippery glide over her pussy. It made her lips part as it wiggled up and down, flicking her little bean on each pass. It seemed as if it was searching for something, though, with how restless that strong slick appendage was moving around.

The questions on her mind became redundant when she felt it probe the entrance to her love tunnel and finally slip into her pussy’s tight warm embrace. It had found its goal and at the same time, the flower’s petals pushed into her fur. Alex noticed that it was as if the plant had intentionally created a seal. Each time the vine moved around, it felt as if her whole pussy was being sucked. The sticky liquid the plant left behind on her and inside her felt strange at first, but the longer it remained in contact with her flesh and skin, the warmer it became, and the more intense she felt her exotic lover moving around inside her. 

The pressure was rising when the plant’s tongue pushed deeper into her. Alex blinked a few times, wishing she could rub her eyes, but the bulge in her belly she saw stayed, she couldn’t even blame the low light. Just when she was getting ready for a pounding from the plant, the green petals pulled away from her fur and the strange red appendage slipped out of her. The sticky substance her insides had been coated with was dripping from her pussy, a milky mixture of her and the plant’s nectar.

Her legs were being lifted until she was up in the air almost horizontally, except for her ass being higher up, presented for her primal lover. Foreplay was over, it seemed. The tigress wasn’t left feeling empty for long. Before, there had only been that one tentacle going for her. But now several thicker vines made their way towards her. She had only had time for a soft moan when one of them penetrated her from behind. Another one slipped right into her open mouth, sealing it as tightly as her pussy had been before. 

For just a second, Alex felt panic rising inside her. But the nectar the plant leaked onto her tongue tasted sweeter than any fruit she had ever tried in her life. She followed her urge, began sucking and licking, savoring its amazing aroma. As if being spit roasted by an incredibly strong plant wasn’t enough, two more of its arms emerged and began toying with her breasts. Like hungry and thirsty mouths, they were suckling and teasing her nipples.

It felt surreal and wrong in many ways, and yet, the tigress couldn’t stop herself from moaning against the exotic flower plugging her mouth. There was nothing she could do. She could not even hold a clear thought about what to do for long. She was held and being used or pleasured, she couldn’t decide. All she knew was it felt incredible. There was no past or future, just that moment. She couldn’t even tell if the plant vines were moving her or if it was her own body convulsing in pleasure that made her twitch and shake.

She wanted to scream and command the plant to go faster and harder, to give her that relief she had been craving for months. Her voice was completely muffled by the flower on her face, soft moans along with the slithering of those silky vines was all that could be heard. Yet, her wish was granted. Was she being eaten out or fucked by that tentacle? She couldn’t tell, only that it surprisingly knew how to push her buttons and how to make her roll her eyes back and surrender to her bizarre lover.

Finally, it hit her, making her body shake like the ground would if the nearby volcano had broken out. It was an orgasm so much stronger than any of those she could get by herself using her hands alone. Her legs were shaking despite the strong hold the vines had on her, and she was squirting her own tasty nectar right into that flower covering her steaming hot pussy. The suction she had felt before got even more intense. The plant didn’t seem to want to waste a drop.

Then suddenly, came the echo. First, she felt her breasts being drenched in the strange goo the plant had been secreting this whole time. She was unable to look down and see that they were in fact squirting it right from their tips, blowing a load of the nectar-like liquid over her tits. Right after, she was being filled by the tentacles sharing both her ends. She felt the pressure building in her pussy while she was being force-fed the sweet load flooding her mouth.

As soon as they were done pumping her full of the unknown liquid, they pulled out of her. Not only that, but the plant also lowered her down onto the ground. She felt how her wrists and ankles were slightly sore from her struggle, but she clearly had been set free. She was lying on the ground, catching her breath, and trying to process what had happened. Her whole body was covered in the milky goo that was dripping from her chin and leaking from her pussy. It looked as if she had fully satisfied at least a dozen men, not just a few tentacles.

Without a warning, it had begun, and it ended the same way. The one difference was that Alex felt full of energy and not nearly as exhausted as she should have been. Even her paws that had been hurting from hiking to this place felt as if they had been resting for days.

Quickly, she gathered her things and tried cleaning herself with the bottle of water from her backpack. When the drops hit the ground, the tigress turned around, her heart beating fast. She had heard the slithering noise from before. She put a hand to her chest and took a deep breath. Instead of another bunch of perverted vines coming her way, she spotted just a tiny specimen of the many-armed beast. It was no larger than a potted plant that could have been found in an apartment, yet the many vines sprouting from the ground were wiggling around and pointing her way.

“Yes!” Alex jumped with joy. “That’s the one I’ll take with me.” Like she had practiced many times before, she took out the cloth bag and her little shovel and dug out the plant she had such high hopes for. Its vines tried to hold onto her fingers, but they were weak enough for Alex to pull them off. She carefully watered the bag, wrapped it in some foil, and stowed it away in her backpack.

That’s when she noticed that her radio was flashing, signaling her that someone was trying to reach her. “Marx here!” She said after pushing the button. The angry voice coming from the device scolded her. “Where are you? We’re waiting for you. We must leave before the sun sets! You might have noticed we don’t have any control tower or lights here.”  But there was nothing that could bring the tigress down. “I’m on my way back. Call the institute. Tell my prodigy botanist boyfriend that the mission was successful.”

“What the hell are you on about?” Was the angry reply that came back. But the tigress turned the device off with a soft ‘click’, and began making her way back, showing off her proudest smile to every creature that might have witnessed her greatest discovery yet.
