Page 35 of Lured By the Siren

He shakes his head, and I can see the frustration lining his features. His shoulders tense, and he clenches his fists, making me go to Evie’s side, wrapping an arm around her waist protectively.

“Those visions you see, they are real. Those are your memories.”

“Impossible,” he scoffs, pushing past us and heading toward the Elder's hut.

“Please, Mathius! Trust me!” She yells out to him, “They aren’t dreams. Let the fog in your mind clear. Don’t drink it.”

He stops, turning his head slightly back toward them, and I hold my breath waiting for him to say something, but he only continues to walk further into the village.

Evelyn sighs next to me. She unwraps my hand from her waist and walks into the ocean, diving beneath the waves. Night has fully overtaken the sky, and the moon’s glow whispers across the water. I join her in the calmness of the night sea.

“They’ve been lying to me,” Evie says, and I can’t tell if the glistening in her eyes is from the water or her tears. “My mother…Florence, she’s been hiding everything from me.”

I swim to her, wrapping her in my arms, her tail shimmering beneath the waves. “What secrets?”

“We were right. The Elixir is what made you forget your brother. It’s why Mathius can’t remember his past. It’s why all the men have stayed here. They haven’t even attempted to leave in decades. The Elixir is training them to serve the siren’s in any way they require.”

I suddenly can’t breathe. I know my memory loss had something to do with the strange drink, but what Evie is saying would also explain the strange fog in my mind, and that unnatural need I felt to pleasure each and every siren.

“There’s more,” she says, and a fresh bout of tears well in her eyes. “There is a way off the island. I don’t know what or how, but I heard my mother talking about it. She doesn’t want me to know that it’s possible.”

I kiss away the tears falling down her cheeks, catching them before they ripple in the water. “Why would she hide something like that from you?”

“I don’t know!” She said, her violet eyes bright in the moonlight. “They are poisoning all of the men to keep them here.”

“But why? What gain do they get from it?”

“That’s something I intend to find out.” Her words are vicious, demanding, and they shoot a spike of arousal through me.

“We will find out together, but right now I want nothing more than to kiss you because I don’t know when I’ll get another chance,” I say, and pull her into my waiting lips.

She tastes of jasmine and honey. I devour her, pulling her closer, wanting to feel her against me, wanting her to let go of her pain and hurt, giving it all to me. I want to replace her broken heart with pleasure. Maybe I’d taken more of the drink than I thought, but I can’t stand for Evie to be in pain, not when I can fix it.

She breaks our kiss, and I watch as she slowly takes off her top, letting the lavender fabric be swept out by the waves. Her breasts bob like plump, ripe apples and I growl, grabbing her and pulling her against me, sucking one of her delectable erect nipples into my mouth. I bite down lightly, satisfied to hear her moan in delight, before taking the rest of her heavy breast into my mouth.

She lets out a strangled laugh and pulls me back to her lips, whispering against them, “Take off your shirt.”

Obeying, I release her, admiring her body beneath the starlit sky while I practically tear the wet shirt over my head and throw it as close as I can back to shore.

Her eyes grow heavy with lust, and a playfully sad smile tugs at her lips as she beckons me forward, swimming deeper out to sea. The moon dances across the water's surface, making it look like liquid glass as she effortlessly glides through it. A coolbreeze whispers around us, carrying the salty musk of the sea, sending a prickle over me.

Evie’s skin shimmers in the gentle light of the night sky. She brushes her tail against my bare chest and my already hard cock throbs with need. The water is up to my neck now, and I lunge for her, but she only laughs, swimming just out of reach.

“I can’t stand anymore,” I say, breathless, my feet kicking to keep me afloat.

“I don’t see the problem.” She smirks and finally comes closer.

I reach out and wrap my arm around her waist, pulling her flush against me, skin to skin. Her scaled body is cool and slick against me, and I groan watching the look of need wash over her features. It is a look I have come to know well in our short time together. It holds an insatiable hunger, a promise of unimaginable pleasure.

“Are you ready to fuck a siren?” she murmurs.

I swallow hard, my cock growing harder with every saultry word from her mouth.

“I’ve already been with you multiple times,” my voice cracks, and I clear my throat.

“Not like this,” she says, licking up my neck, and I almost come right then as she rips my pants clean off my body, her tail wrapping around me like a snake before she pulls me beneath the waves.

I quickly reach into my pocket and pull free one of the Elder flower petals I plucked from the cliffs earlier. I eat the petal, saving the delicious taste, and then I begin to breathe blissfully underwater. The sensation is exhilarating.
