The Bubbleship Series; The First Heroes

Shapeshifter Seas Pt. 2

Kontessa awoke to find herself in a dark room lined with dark burgundy wall hangings depicting battles between the demons and armored creatures from hell.

"Does your being long for dark pleasures, Kontessa? Do you know the price I exact from those I give my great magic to?" Stated the elf sorceress Calasel the elf of the northern realms, land of the elves. She continued, "The price I will take is a bit of yourself. I will drain you a bit. It will hurt, but I will disguise it cover it with pleasure."

“Where’s my sword? Where is my armor? I don’t want your damn ring. Let me out. Why is there no door?"

Calasel of the northern realm, of the land of the elves, stepped forward, and Kontessa saw a snake-haired woman with ebony-colored asps covering her scalp. "You can fight, or you can accept. In the end, I will let you forget, or I will let you remember. It will be your choice."

"Damn it, let me out," Kontessa screamed, feeling trapped but took that and turned it to anger.

"No, Kontessa, my dark one. My jet beauty." Calasel of the northern realm, land of the elves, said with cruel passion in her voice as her eyes took on the form of snake's eyes but amber in one and turquoise in another. "All will be returned to you but the ring you can't rid yourself of. You will pay my pleasure, dark one, jet beauty."

"Damn it, I'm going to rip your head off."

"No, Kontessa," Calasel called forth. “Bind my dark one!”

Kontessa’s hands flew over her head, and her hands became tied with black leather ropes, so her legs spread feet apart, held separated by more of the black cords. Kontessa could not speak; she could not utter a word as if she were gagged.

Calasel walked over.

"Call me lover, call me anger, call me hatred, but you will be pleasured now."

A tiny piece of her soul shriveled, and the snakes hissed, satisfied. “Jet beauty,” Calasel of the northern realm, land of the elves, whispered as she took the form of a demon Kontessa recognized from hell. A succubus stood with leather wings 6’ in span with the same snake tail wrapped around her dark one's black-skinned leg.

“Jet beauty,” Calasel repeated. "Call me Azazael." The sorceress called wrapped her tail around the succulent strong neck of her dark one and pulled her forward, and the ropes grew taunt. Azaiel separated her lover’s lips and forced her tongue into the sensual erotic mouth.

Her dark one bit hard, as hard as she could, and tasted blood.

“Azaiel, I'll call you then. I'm gonna…." Extasy took Azaiel and Kontessa; both felt undeniable pleasure as her dark one screamed in anger.

 Azaiel felt the ravishes of Kontessa’s soul a bit more through the kiss.

Kontessa hung her head, and she took a small sharp breath as sweat beaded on her skin. The ropes fell, and the black-skinned demon fell to the floor in a heap. Breathing came hard as her tongue felt sandpaper dry now. She felt deathly spent, and her soul ached.

The demon raised her eyes and reflected in them stood an impassioned tempting beauty. Naked except for the black leather teddy and black leather boots, which came to midthigh. Smooth as silk the hair of her body but for her head for that which held golden yellow locks.

Kontessa could not help herself as only her mind came to her control. She did manage to roll on her back, and her hand went to her belly. Azazeil came to her and bent over. She put her mouth to the demon's, and as she opened her mouth, a thin white light of fire came from it to suck more of her soul through this kiss as well. Kontessa arched her back, but this time she passed out.

***

When Kontessa came to, she wore her leather, and her iron sword hung at her side.

“That happened," Kontessa stated. Little doubt lay in her mind about the dark desires that brought her through what just transpired.

“Yes, dark one.” the sorceress said. “It is the price I exact for such magic. You can breathe the water of the planes, but you can never take it off. Beware, you fall in love with the ocean depths."

“Have you killed? Have you killed my friend?”

"Yes, demon. And the woman will sit in her home and go mad until her mind is eaten with it."

“Leave town and never come back. Maybe you are much more powerful than I am, but I have many friends. Know you will leave and never return."

“No, my dark one. You will need me again.” The elf waved her hand.

Kontessa found herself outside, and laughed. She told this elf to leave before and she found herself outside the tower then, too.

***

Kontessa stood on the rocky breakwater that protected the ships of the narrow waterway from the rough seas outside, and the only thing on her mind, the thing that took over even her desire to kill the sorceress, was the blue mermaid or whatever it was. She figured earlier that all that took place in the tower took place in the blink of an eye. She hoped that she would see the water sprite. Again.

“What’s your name,” a voice came from behind her. Kontessa turned to see a white face maid with long yellow hair and green translucent scales covering her.

“Kontessa, Kontessa Edelman.”

“Follow me." the blue-skinned delicious woman dove into the water, and the black-skinned demon dove in and followed.

In the cold water outside the breakwater, the demon Kontessa dove deeper and deeper, following the white woman. Kontessa watched every movement of the slim female body swimming through the water, and desire overcame her again. She marveled at the clear sight through the water the ring gave her. As if through a clear blue sky.

The two swam quite a distance offshore, but she could still see the rocky outcropping before dropping into blackness. It was as sudden as the night that darkened skies overhead above the surf. A twinge of fear came into her as the water grew colder, but it seemed as if she just knew she was getting colder but knew she would never suffer.

Deeper, she swam, just knowing where the fish swam without seeing them.

Now the woman in front of her glowed blue. They delved deeper than Kontessa’s hell-spawned heartfelt she could handle, but breath continued to fill her lungs.

She saw a dimmer light, and the white woman stepped through. As she approached and grew closer, she found that she could stand as if pulled down by her legs. She stood upright.

Kontessa stepped through the barrier and felt as if the water simply grew thicker for about an inch. “We are ten leagues under the sea, Kontessa the demon.”
