Guiding Ruby beyond a small grove of palm trees that had no business being in this part of the Mediterranean Sea, Kaini smiled and nose-kissed Ruby once more. “We know you..we all hear you.” Kaini whispered, “You will hear us very soon, I hope.”
Their little journey ended when Ruby emerged with Kaini from the circle of trees and into a small pond of crystal blue water with an aromatic waterfall of pure white pouring from a source that Ruby couldn’t see. Permeating the air, Ruby breathed in all the different floral scents floating around her. Pink lotuses were the first flower she smelled because of their naturally heady and sweet scent, reminding her of Kaini. Surrounding the lotuses, was a small ring of white water lilies adding their lemony scent and blending with the sweetness of the lotuses. “I can’t think with all these flowers swirling in my head.” Ruby zily muttered and walked over to the st flower she could pick out, Water irises. Deep purple with their stems and leaves poking high out of the water, their complex and earthy scent made it seem like a spell was being florally weaved around her senses.
Laughing lightly, Kaini gently tugged the charming pirate to the edge of the water. “I don’t think she sees the rest of us, sisters.” Kaini cupped Ruby’s chin and turned her head so the stunning pirate could focus. “They are just flowers, nothing more. I’m sure that you have smelled flowers before..” She kept giggling and then snapped her fingers. “Meet the others.”
It was the snap that brought Ruby out of her self-induced trance. Blinking her sparkling hazel eye, Ruby turned away from Kaini and took in the others one at a time. “I must be dreaming. There is no way I am surrounded by so much…” Deciding to try and gain some superiority over the others, Ruby flipped her cornrowed hair behind her and moved so fluidly that her shells gently cttered together as her exposed teardrop shaped breasts lightly jiggled precisely at the same time. “Please, dies..” Ruby used the gift of her French accent to her benefit, “...I know you are anxious to tell me who you are, since you know so much about me.” Ruby flicked her ruby stud in her lip slowly.
“Oh, she’s a natural.” A voice from the far side of the pool announced. “I think we made the right decision, sisters.” Stepping out from where she was partly hidden, a woman with an identical shape to the others sauntered up to Ruby. “Marissa.” She offered with a rich and distinctly feminine voice. “So gd to have finally met you, Tanya.”
-There it was. She’d said it, the name I’ve been avoiding for years.-
Containing her surprise behind a stoic look, Ruby gnced over the beauty before her. Wet from head to toe, Marissa had long body-length pink hair with warm-toned gold shells woven throughout. Her pale skin melded into that same pink at her waist and then formed scales that were slightly deeper in color than her hair. While it took every ounce of restraint the pirate had, Ruby fought off the growing desire and simply smiled and shifted her weight to her left side, and jutted her hips in the same direction then pced a single finger on Marissa’s chin. “Pink is such a lovely color, Marissa.” Ruby watched as Marissa took a baited breath, “Matched only by the beauty of your bronze eyes.” Extending the ‘S’s of her final word, Ruby ran her finger along Marissa’s well-shaped jawline. “Tell me Marissa, how did you know my birth name?”
An unexpected yet welcome finger on her chin caught Marrisa by complete surprise and it took her a few hitched breaths before she could respond to Ruby properly. “I..we..” She pointed her thumb back behind her to the other four women. “We’ve known for a very long time, it just took us a while to catch up to you, darling.” Marissa purred and dipped her head down to kiss Ruby’s finger. “We call ourselves sisters, although we are only sisters in name only.” Finding the will to step out of Ruby’s way, Marissa danced her way around the pirate only to stop when she’d pressed her bare breasts into Ruby’s back. “Kaini and Ingemara you’ve met. Allow our final two the same opportunity.”
-None of this makes sense. Dead, that’s it..I’m dead because if it is too good to be true, it typically IS.-
Initially Ruby didn’t see more than the three women she’d already met and kept her focus on Marissa. “What if I just want to get lost in your eyes, your subtle saltiness?” It was only after she’d made another flirt with Marissa did she get the look of who she considered the most beautiful so far. Emerging from the depths of the pond, a blue-haired woman with a bck ce blindfold swam her way to the edge of the pool, and quickly stood up. Taken by surprise with the sheer depth of her coloring, it was only after the woman was within touching distance that she saw the white tips of her blue hair, emuting small cresting waves of the ocean. Dotting her bare white skin were tattoos of yellow water primrose that wound in a spiral down her torso until they blended into her navy blue scales. “Hello.” Ruby purred as the blue goddess approached danger close.
“Nerice.” Her voice chimed like a soft bell. “Finally, the lovely Tanya Rankles in the…flesh.” She licked her rich blue lips, “With your permission…Marissa?”
“How else will you know her, dear. I will leave her in your capable arms.” Marissa pulled away from Ruby.
-I guess I don’t give permission?-
Ruby grimly thought, and subsequently heard the others begin ughing. “Nerice..” Ruby cleared her throat and slipped her arms around Nerice’s hips. “...You have my permission.”
A wide grin suavely crept over Nerice’s blue lips as she stretched her hands out and first found Ruby’s chin. “Just as I have seen from other sisters' thoughts.” Quickly moving up Ruby’s right side, Nerice found the empty eye socket. “Oh, darling.” She whispered and sighed, “We have a little in common, here.” She gently ran her finger over the devoid oval, then reached out and curled Ruby’s braided hair in her hand. “Jet bck as we have always seen, sisters?”
“Yes.” The other four said in unison.
Dropping the lock of Ruby’s hair so she could hear the light sound of shells, Nerice added, “Wonderful, thank you, sisters.” She pulled Ruby closer to her, “Ravenesque, I love it. Now then..” Nerice delicately cracked her fingers and then resumed memorizing Ruby by touch. Probing slowly around both of Ruby’s well-sculpted shoulders and arms, It was only when she reached her perky chest and received a low guttural pleasing moan for her inspection. “One of the best reasons to be blind darling.” Nerice lightly tweaked Ruby’s tender nipple then with a little giggle made her way across the pirate’s tight stomach. “My, Oh..my.” Nerice licked her azure lips hungrily. “All those years of climbing along rigging has made you lovely to…just…explore.” Nerice stepped back and took Ruby’s hands into her own, circling the callouses on her rugged hands. “I could just kiss you forever.”
“Do it.” Ruby purred and stepped back into Nerice, teasing her with the edge of her ruby stud poking from her lip. “You..know…” Ruby quietly rumbled from her chest so that only Nerice could hear it clearly. “...how close we are right..now.” Ruby shifted to her toes and kissed the tip of Nerice’s nose, then trailed her piercing across the top of Nerice’s heart-shaped lips.
Almost as if she were enchanted, Nerice leaned forward to finish the simple and tantalizing taunt Ruby had pressed in her mind. She’d just puckered for the kiss her heart was smming in her chest for when she heard the others behind her.
“Nerice, No!”
