M y god, did I actually just pleasure this woman—this siren—on a rock in the middle of a beach?

Never have I done anything so reckless and so improper in my life, but damn did she taste good.

I don’t know what came over me, but I couldn’t stop myself.

I had to have her and was desperate to explore every inch of her beautiful, color-shifting skin.

I would have taken her fully, but I can’t let myself forget the task at hand.

This intoxicating feeling that comes over me every time I look at her needs to be pushed aside, but it feels like if I don’t claim her and make her mine, I will actually die.

I huff out a laugh, because it sounds so dramatic, and it is, but it’s exactly how it feels.

I don’t even know this woman, how can she have such an effect on me? Is it something about the siren’s call? Is that what she meant by ‘sirens have quite the call’ ? Maybe she’s seducing me, making me feel this way with whatever powers she has.

It’s going to be a painfully long walk to the other side of the island if I can’t manage to keep my creeping urges at bay.

I glance toward the horizon, where storm clouds gather in a thick band that seems to stretch as far as I can see around the island.

The ocean churns beneath them, matching the intensity of the dark gray sky, and a sense of dread knots in my stomach at the scene.

I want to learn more about those storms and this island.

As we continue walking along the beach just on the outside of the forest, I can’t help but notice the vibrant flowers littered amongst the greenery.

Blossoms I’ve never seen before peek through the lush plant life, boasting every color imaginable, their stems full of blossoms. I want so badly to stop and study them.

Their petals are so intricate, some plain, while others have beautiful patterns on their velvet blooms. Not only are their colors exemplary, but their scents are spellbinding, drawing me in like a moth to flame.

For a moment, I dare to think that being shipwrecked here might be a blessing in disguise, for I never would have seen the beauty this place holds, but then I think of the crew members I paid to come on this journey with me.

How many of them lost their lives? And Dru?

What if he met the same fate as those men, drowned beneath the stormy seas?

I shake away the thoughts, Dru is strong, and if I survived those storms and ended up here, he did too, I’m sure of it.

Savoring the moment, I glance over at Evelyn, this siren, who makes me feel nothing I’ve ever felt before. Her beauty is a thousand times more than the flowers that dot this beach. She is breathtaking and makes my heart race with anticipation, anxious to uncover everything about her.

Pulling away from her earlier when she was so eager for me was like pulling out my own tooth, but even if she helped me all evening and we shared intimate moments in my fevered haze, I can’t just take her without knowing her fully.

What sort of man would that make me? I clench my jaw as the sway of her round hips taunts me, and another ripple of yearning burns through me.

We come to the end of the beach with the choice of either going into the jungle or climbing up a steep rocky cliff. Evelyn pulls me into the thick copse of trees to our left, and we continue on our journey.

She looks up at me, drawing her brows together, “Are you okay? Am I going too fast? We just have to get around these cliffs. The village is on the other side. I can slow down if you need…”

I cut her off, “No, no. I’m fine. I just…” I stop and look away from her intent stare. The intensity of my rapture for this woman ignites further. I want to pick her up, to taste her again, to fuck her up against one of the trees until she’s coming apart at the seams.

I can’t stop the low growl that comes from me as I say, “I’ve never felt anything like this for a person before—so immediate. Is there something about this island? I mean, this is your home, does it affect humans in any particular way?”

She frowns and refuses to meet my eyes, turning away from me, pushing through the brush and fallen palm leaves that litter the forest floor.

“If it makes a difference, I’ve never felt what I’m feeling for you right now before either. Sailors come few and far between to our island,” she stops, and I almost run into her as she spins back around.

I refrain from touching her again, not sure if I can hold myself back. “But you are…different, somehow. I know the circumstances aren’t great for why you are here, but I—I’m glad you are.”

She smiles in a way that feels overly sensual for such a simple act, and I can’t take it anymore.

I grab her, wrapping my arms around her waist and pulling her flush against me.

My dick is rock hard pressing against her bare stomach.

I want to feel her smooth scales against it, skin to skin.

Heat rushes through me as I push her up against a palm tree and crush my lips against hers, searching, seeking as I kiss her hard, letting my tongue explore inside her mouth, relishing in the feel of her sweet, plump lips.

I unbutton my trousers, pushing them down as my cock springs free, the tip wet with my need. Her eyes widen as she looks down, her hand wrapping around it, and I almost lose it right there.

“Fuck! I want to be inside you,” I hiss, “Feel your soft wet pussy around my needy cock.” There’s something so satisfying about sharing my inner thoughts with a woman when we’re together.

Some women share right back, spiking my arousal further, while others I tend to scare away with my forward words.

A moment of panic shoots through me as I worry I’ve taken it too far with Evelyn, but instead it seems to only arouse her further.

She shudders, gripping my shirt and pulling me into her, ready to devour her lips once again as she strokes my length. Her small hand glides along my cock and I’m moments away from coming.

I wonder how tight she is, if my dick will slide easily between the apex of her thighs, the thought has me cursing, ready to erupt, but then she breaks our kiss and drops to her knees in front of me licking the head of my cock.

“Mhmm,” She moans against my head, and the vibrations almost send me over the edge. She sucks along my length, pulling it in and out, until it pops out of her delectable lips. “Does that feel good, sailor?”

I freeze, so close to my release that I don’t dare exhale. I want nothing more than to feel her mouth around me, licking, sucking, teasing, her teeth grazing against my taught skin.

Her mouth closes around my tip and she sucks my entire length into her mouth.

“Oh, fuck!” I yell out as she drags her teeth lightly against my cock. Her lush lips circle me and she’s relentless, sucking in and out, stopping in between to swirl her tongue around the head of my cock. I grip her silken blonde hair, desperate to hold onto something.

“Stop teasing me,” I grind out. She stops for a moment, allowing the head of my cock to linger just barely in her open mouth. I slide free of her lips, and she grips the base in one confident move. She begins to stroke my length, torturing me further.

Her soft hands caress up and down while she teases my head between her lips. Pre-cum is dripping out, and she laps it all with her tongue, savoring every bit of my arousal.

The pleasure resonating through me is immense, and I let out a cry so loud I’m sure the rest of the island can hear us. I slide my fingers through her hair and set my own pace, pushing my cock further into her mouth, desperate for more.

She slides my dick out of her mouth long enough to quip. “So demanding. Do you always get what you want when you ask for it, sailor?”

Giggling, she sucks me back down her throat and I can feel the vibrations of it all the way to my balls.

I let my head fall back as she continues to suck and tease until I can’t hold it in any longer and I come harder than I ever have before inside her mouth.

She swallows every last drop of my release, and I can’t help but pull her up to meet my lips, tasting the final remnants of my seed on her tongue with a groan.

“That was…” I begin, but she stops me with a shimmering purple finger pressed to my lips.

“Shh, I think someone’s coming.”

I grunt, reaching for my trousers and pulling them on, refastening them just before I hear the rustling of something coming toward us through the trees.

She grabs my hand and pulls me through the maze of palms, boulders, and plants, leading us away from whatever is coming toward us.

“I think we lost them, unless they followed the scent of your arousal.” She smirks and my traitorous cock twitches ready for round two.

“I—Gods, I don’t know what you are doing to me.

I’ve never done anything like this before.

Usually, I would have taken you on several dates before I allowed that to happen between us.

” I laugh awkwardly, trying to use humor to chase away the embarrassment creeping up my spine.

“I’ve never been this bold with a woman this fast.”

“You don’t have to apologize for something I wanted just as much as you.

I don’t know what this connection between us is either, but I don’t want it to go away.

” Her cheeks turn a light lavender, and I wonder if that is the color of her blushing.

“But if we are being honest with one another, I think you might be who I’ve been searching for most of my life. ”

The breath escapes my lungs, and I stare at her, unsure what to say. There is a foreign fluttering in my chest, and I try to ignore it, but then I find myself wondering what her life is like here. How has it taken her one hundred and twenty-seven years to find someone?

“Come on. I want to help you find your brother. I hope he is here for your sake. There are several sailors at camp from years of shipwrecks, maybe he’s one of them.”
