“I never said anything about renting. And I’m not mad. Your mind is filled with joy and that is enough to not be disappointed. I bought the island outright and paid some Ogres to build our house far away from any disturbances… and had it spelled by another Enchanter so only those who know where the island is can get to it. As of now, only about ten alive know where our second home is. It cannot be accidently stumbled upon by anyone or anything except in life threatening emergencies. If someone is desperately in need of reaching shore, I’ll be instantly notified.” He pulled away and spread his arms. “Welcome to Blue Angel Isle.”
“Blue Angel…” She lost her breath. “You named the angel for me?”
“I take it you like it?”
“It’s perfect.” She began to cry happy tears and flew over her new hidden sanctuary, taking it all in. It wasn’t very big, maybe a mile or so long from one end to another. It was nonetheless perfect in every way. She flew close to the water and glided over it, running slender fingers through the tropically warm water before rising and head straight for the recently finished log house. Before she could land his arms closed her wings and turned her so she was cradled. He smiled, knew he was being old fashioned and she loved it as he carried her up to the large door and opened it to cross the threshold.
Happy tears returned as she took in the rustic and simplistic design. In his arms she kissed him before finding her own feet to begin exploring. The cabin was extremely simple, but perfect in every way. There were no adjacent rooms, just a large open space with several simple windows closed. She noticed there was no glass in the sills, just simple wooden shutters. The floor was beautiful hardwood that smelled fresh and clean without foul chemical odors associated with paint. She didn’t move as he walked around, opening up all the windows to let the morning rays brighten the room further. Dead center drew attention. Situated in the middle was hung giant hammock lined with silk sheets, suspended from every corner of the shack so as to accommodate their combined weight ten times over. Even the roof acted as extra weight bearing support. In the back though was a large refrigerator beside a wood stove made of stone and mortar. In the northeast corner though was a large open shower. The ceiling was over thirty feet tall and had a second level to hold supplies like an attic.
The beauty of the cabin lay in its simplicity.
Ethan didn’t move as she stood where he left her, taking it all in. Judging by her mind being numb, he knew she was telling the truth. She only discovered he was making a sanctuary for them. Not the little details of romance. A place to get away from time to time without getting burnt out. Eventually she began moving, not acknowledging him in any way as she approached the hanging bed six feet off the ground. Her fingers caressed the thick ropes to see if it weren’t a dream. Her smile was all he needed to see as she moved to the back kitchen area and then the shower.
“Hey, Babe! What do you think?”
Kanade’s gaze went up to the upper floor to find a familiar gold filigree face grinning down at her. “Dress? What are you doin’ here?”
The flaming cabinet broke into a cheeky grin. “You think to get rid of me so easily, Babe? Think again. I’m your contact to the outside world. Plus I’m the Blue Angle Isle guardian here. Ethan rescued this part of me from old storage and my wood has never tasted such freedom. This is the first time since this container was made for me to slip another piece of my soul into, that it has something to do rather than collect dust. I must say though, Ethan has outdone himself with this purchase. I’ll come back around just after sunset here to take him back for Jormun and to get another scan. He had to make promises to come here. Oh by the way, Girl, it will be only the two of you out here. So haaave fun. Go skinny dipping and snorkeling.”
“Enough, Dress. Don’t spoil my plans.” Ethan warned lightly.
“Have a good time you two. I’ll be back after sunset.” Dressor’s face vanished and looked like a simple oak closet again.
Ethan came up from behind and wrapped his arms around her waist and she leaned back in his solid chest. “What do you think, Angel”
“That you’ve got guaranteed sex comin’. Lots and lots.” She laughed as did he before she turned around, leaned up and gave him a tender kiss. “It’s absolutely perfect. I’ll consider this our real home from now on. Not the shop we live above with all our things. It’s peaceful here.”
“Except during hurricane season.” He teased. “Do you like the hammock?”
“Very much so, but Dress is right. Right now I want to get naked and go swimmin’ with you out by those reefs with all the colorful fishes. But… where’s the toilet? I need one soon.”
“Out back.”
Kanade immediately kicked off her shoes and stripped right there and smiled as he rumbled before gathering it all up without removing her thong or silk bra. “Dress said go snorkelin’. Do you have goggles and a snorkel made for us?”
“Up there.” He pointed to the upper level. He then took her clothes as she undid the clasp from between her breasts and his eyes couldn’t stop themselves from staring as the perky mounds bounced out.
“I’ll be right out and we can go get started on some fun before the real fun begins.” She then almost skipped her way outside and headed out back.
He undressed and leapt to the upper area where he kept a few things and put the clothing in a bag before opening a trunk with swimming gear. As he was exiting the building he stopped.
Beauty unlike anything alive or not stood in perfect glory. Never once had Ethan seen Kanade nude out in open sunlight and his breath had been stolen. Streams of sunlight reflected off her tone flesh, making the glitter quality shine unlike any object could compare. She was a goddess of love and compassion and didn’t hate anyone for anything. Her heart was as unbelievable as her appearance. Dark blue wings gave perfect contrast to her alabaster flesh that could never hold a tan. If it could she wouldn’t be half as pretty. Wind ruffled her feathers as well as her undone hair. Her head was tilted to the morning sun, eyes closed to enjoy the warm sunshine. All she wore was the pendant her mother gave her, glowing like the sun to keep her power from killing every creature she knew better than he did as she had collected many souls before returning to mortal form. But never in all his life had she been so exotic and beautiful. It wasn’t sexual at the moment with her naked, but much, much more profound. Artists could never capture it right.
She was an angel whether religion got it right or not.
Kanade was in his mind ever since he came through the opening, but couldn’t believe his reaction had been impacted so much harder than ever. And all she did was stand in the warm sun she so missed. She knew at that moment he would never want another and would never question his love or feel truly jealous another would take him away. But he wasn’t alone. Her love for him was equal and solely devoted.
But as she turned to look at him, she was just as captivated. His once dark tan had lightened, but in the light it made the hills of muscles stand out. Wide shoulders, thick chest and narrow waist was male perfection. He had the hairy chest of a beast she loved running her hands and nipples over. The coarseness tantalized the senses. His wings though were darker, but was a perfect backdrop. Down lower she licked her lips as she spied his cock and found it aimed like a torpedo of virility she wanted launched inside. But was glad her curses had finally taken permanent effect and lost all the pubes. It made him seem larger than normal and although his mind wasn’t thinking sexually, hers was. She embodied kind femininity and none could deny he was raw animal wrapped in the form of a man. Never before had she realized how much it complimented.
Man and woman, opposites that make a whole so new life could one day be made to start a new and prosperous cycle.
They stood for several minutes admiring every angle and curve of the other till Ethan felt discomfort and looked down to find his raging need.
“Perhaps I should take care of that before we swim.” She licked her lips.
“No, I want to show you
your surprise.”
“But I want to have you inside me now.” Her dainty voice grew husky with desire. “And I’ll not let your balls turn blue when I can make us both happy.”
None could say no as she did just that. The swim gear fell as she tackled him inside the cabin and slammed herself fully on him and moaned in the pleasure pain of stretching to have him fit his enormity inside silky folds. Fire tantalized her as he erupted, her hips gyrating all on their own as her need wanted it fast and hard and would not take no for an answer. Fire in a vortex zipped around his member, making her climax come alive faster than ever, especially since his rapid growth caused him to need surgery a week ago. Her breath came in rapid pants as did his as he thrust from below and used his tail to rub up and down her spine till her wings snapped out and she screamed his name, he roared and they finished together. And bit down hard and lovingly at the same time.
“Shit.” Her chest heaved as she licked slowly on his shoulder. Tangy sweetness made the experience as enjoyable as ever. “That did make me happy.”
“Ditto.” He rumbled and brought her bloody lips to his. “When you let go, do you want to go snorkeling or attack me again?”
“Oh you can count on being attacked for most of the weekend. But while I’ve got you where I want you,” She leaned back so he got full view of hard nipples standing proud. He automatically grabbed her hips and enjoyed how they were made for his hands. “how much did this all cost? Where is power comin’ from to make hot water in the shower and keep the fridge runnin’?”
“Forget the cost. It’s ours forever. I got a great deal from the Preserver Nymphs who run this part of the world. I had this place made for us since we need the extra room and had this place protected. That is all I’ll say. This is my gift to you, for us.” He corrected. “As for power, there are a few solar panels around the island which charges battery cells under this place. It doesn’t have many conveniences like fans or whatnot, but this island always has a cool breeze and is warm year round. If it gets too hot we can swim. Please don’t ruin the romance by asking too many questions.”
“Fair enough.” She kissed him before going back to the wound she inflicted and took care of it just to make him rumble.
As soon as Kanade felt her inner muscles relaxing she extracted him and stood before giggling as she ran outside, grabbed her set of gear and threw herself off the cliff.
Ethan was hot on her trail and quickly overtook her, grabbed her bare ankle and spun her around so he could get a good hold before rising sharply to stall and cannonball into the clear ocean.
They surfaced laughing before Kanade put on the face mask and mouthpiece to begin watching marine life dart all around. Small schools of colorful fish stayed close together for safety. Coming up beside her and taking her hand Ethan looked to where she pointed to watch a stingray beating the sea floor to hide and wait for food. They spoke clearly in their minds, enjoying the moment of peace.
Colorful coral came closer and they took deep breaths, staying under upwards of fifteen minutes. Ethan loved his wings, they made swimming effortless. Kanade found it marginally harder as seawater soaked into her feathers, but the amazing reef made up for it.
As he passed a dark hole he felt pressure on his wing to find an eel trying to chomp down. Ethan smiled as the eel couldn’t even break skin.
After a few hours Ethan noticed a large shark come up and bite Kanade too, but it lost teeth. For a moment he was scared and angry, but when she telepathically told him to relax, he did. Deep inside, he knew no normal creature on Earth was a danger, especially after she caught a deadly lionfish barehanded and showed it off. Tough skin had sweet advantages.
Later he called a break when the sun was overhead and plucked ripe coconuts off the tree and husked the nuts with his fingers. They lounged under a tree for shade from the noon sun and enjoyed a sweet meal, but not till after Kanade dipped in a freshwater pool to get the salt from her feathers or they’d itch something terrible.
After, they went for a stroll through the island and Kanade commented it being like one of her favorite movies ‘The Blue Lagoon.’ He agreed and said “Why did you think I bought this for us? We’ve watched it and the sequel several times and you always say you’d love to do that one day. Now we can.”
“Thank you.” She kissed his cheek. “What about Celestia?” It just popped in her head.
“She knew I was taking you out here after we met the Lords. She too is on a break and going to visit her mate. From time to time they can put up with each other and it’s been close to two centuries since they saw each other in person. They Skype, but he wanted to see her or so she said. So don’t worry. I’ve covered all my bases. I still have a few responsibilities, but the rest of the time I’m all yours.”
“You’re all mine. I just let you do other things.”
“Spoken like a wife.”
“I am your wife and don’t ever forget it, ya hear?”
“Loud and clear, Angel.”
Her arm squeezed on his much tighter. “Darlin, where is the nearest stream?”
“That way. Why?” he pointed after smelling the air.
“I’m itchin’ for more lovemakin’.”
“Mind reader.” He accused.
“Nope, you’ve just got a insatiable nymphomaniac for a soul mate. One who can’t get enough of the love of her eternal life.” She drug him some till he scooped her in his arms and blurred through the thick and untamed vegetation till coming upon the perfect stream to make love long and loud without causing a wildfire since the entire island was protected from his power.
Earthquakes and roars though were another matter.
A drinking sailor on a sailboat two miles away looked at his drink and shook his head muttering “Sea monsters aren’t real. See monsters aren’t real… Boy do I have to lay off the drink for awhile.”
Lounging in the hammock under pure bliss as the sun made its daily farewell Kanade grumbled as Dress returned saying “Hot damn, Handsome! You two look like some horror victims in a slasher movie. I take it the sex was spectaaacular!”
Both were covered in blood, licking it off each other intimately. They just laughed as Kanade said “Better return soon, Darlin.’ We’ve got more to get done. I’ll whip us up some dinner. Cook says I have a talent for it with my sense of taste and smell. I’ll make somethin’ we can eat off each other.”
Ethan slid out of the red sheets in a hurry, rinsed off and dressed warm before being Translocated to do what he had to and get back ASAP for her tantalizing plan.
The night was just as good as the day had been when he returned.
Chapter 10
Fog, thick and cold rolled all over. One could barely find themselves lucky enough to peer more than five feet in front of them. And it was freezing outside which made it worse to be out and about. It was just after six in the morning and finally quieter.
But not alone as he walked nice and slow with his two other male companions. Ethan lifted a hand and a liquid-like red and lavender tongue of flame shot from his fingertips and burned the fog back to ignite one of the hundreds of wooden frames standing close to two stories tall. It caught quick and would burn bright and hot all day. Fog pulled away to reveal workers laying out large carpets over huge plastic sheets so snow wouldn’t soak up into the fabric when guests chose to lounge around the pyres he was igniting. Since the wood was some of the oldest in existence and would burn for far longer than usual, it required something a little warmer than a lighter, stuffed paper and dry grass to get it roaring to life.
Workers certainly appreciated his help for not only could they see what each other was doing, but also to move safely in warmth. Even almost naked Nymphs were grateful for his aid.
Magnus undid his necktie saying “Isn’t it so nice and quiet out here?” while distantly they heard raised voices of coordinators directing the final touches.
“Compared to the madhouse? Most definitely.” Blake laughed as he brushed a few flurries off
his dark brown tuxedo. “Let me fight a ornery Dragon having a prostate exam and I’m unarmed and naked before I’d willingly choose to go back to that.”
“You can say that again. I expected this wedding to be packed, but holy hell…” Ethan shook his head and lobbed another wad of liquid fire to the next nearest giant two story pyre while avoiding one of the speaker poles that jutted out of the ground.
“Thanks for the save by the way, Ethan. We owe you.” Magnus laughed, remembering a few minutes ago when they couldn’t walk out of the hall it was so loud and packed. Their only viable option to escape was Ethan each taking one of their hands and flying them out.
“No problem. Thanks for staying though. Practically everyone who lives here left yesterday when the guests started arriving. After seeing the hall makes me want to run away screaming like Merlin when he dyed Collu’s hair bright pink last week.” The other two men could only nod and chuckle. “I’m just glad the guests will be leaving after the reception.” Ethan stuffed his hands in his crimson pockets, wearing a huge tuxedo Dress made that would fit royalty it was so stunning and simple at the same time.
“How many came roughly again?” Blake asked.
“Eight hundred and sixteen thousand thereabouts. Odin and Floa have so many kids, grandkids and so on that the only way we can hold it is out here in the Pegesai plains. I still can’t believe just how many came. At least all Floa’s descendants can be tiny. Odin’s horde and their families though… yikes. I’m just glad Kanade and I won’t be having so many children we’d lose count of their names. For crying out loud, Odin’s bedroom door has to keep track for him.”
“Still in the doghouse I take it.” Magnus asked.
“What gave me away?” Ethan asked with discomfort.
“Your edgier than normal.” The Ogre chuckled. “What’s it been… three days she hasn’t even spoken to you since you accidently got hit by one of Merlin’s haywire spells and went on a rampage tearing the clothes off every woman in the house before Odin and Tattoo finally subdued you.”
