  Eva spreads her thighs wide, and Fontus scoots between them. Mouth swooping down to her pussy, he continues what his fingers had started. Eva’s pleasured groan vibrates through my length, causing it to swell harder with excitement. Playing with her lover, I feel him pulse within my grip. Writhing, pleasuring each other—we’re delirious in erotic carnal passion.

  Crying out, Fontus bathes Eva’s tits with a jet of cum. It’s a beautiful sight. Thighs trembling and tensing, she finds her own orgasm, her moan muffled as I fuck her face. I can’t hold back. Three more short thrusts, and my cum shoots down her throat.

  Releasing my hold on her hair, I fall back against the pillows. Panting, shaking, we all lay staring at each other while the insidious magic dissipates as quickly as it had appeared.

  Breasts heaving, Eva’s expression is of shock.

  “What just happened?”

  Fontus looks just as surprised and mortified beside her. Taking a corner of the sheet, he cleans his sticky cum from her naked body. The healing power I managed to muster has restored him to health, chasing away his fever.

  “I’m guessing that’s how Pluto encourages his captives to breed,” I reply grimly.

  “You mean it’s some kind of enchantment to force us to have sex?”

  Eva won’t meet my eyes. A delicate shade of pink suffusing her cheekbones marks her embarrassment at what we’ve just taken part in. I should regret it, but I don’t. The moment I’d seen her outside the building, I wanted a taste of her. Even without whatever was influencing us, I’m certain we would have ended up in bed together. If I have my way, once we’re out of danger, we will again. Eva and Fontus make a beguiling pair. Perfectly matched.

  I nod at her question. “Yes.”

  “We need to find a way off this Island,” Fontus mutters, discarding the dirty sheet onto the floor. “If we’ve been caught up by that magic once, there’s no saying when it might strike again. Your father knows where we are? If you don’t check in he’ll send others, right?”

  “I didn’t tell him the location of the island,” I admit, palming the back of my neck with awkwardness. I’m an idiot. Selene had given me a warning. Instead of listening to her and alerting my father, I was cocky enough to think I could handle things alone.

  Fontus’ response is a long drawn out groan. “Please tell me your joking.”

  “Selene knows where we are.” At their blank expressions, I elaborate further. “She’s an oracle who gave me the location that led me here.”

  Sitting up, Eva grabs a ragged pillow and hugs it to her chest. “And you think she’ll tell your father where we are?”

  “Well…no. But I’m not the only one who goes to her. One of my brothers might seek her visions when I turn up missing.”

  “So, we have to sit here until someone realizes your missing?” She doesn’t sound impressed.

  We’re still naked on the bed. The scent of sex lingers in the air. I’m aware anyone could walk in on us at any time, including other occupants of the camp looking for fun. Sliding off the mattress, I go in search of my shorts.

  “I never said that. It’s a plan B. Right now we’re going to get dressed, find you both something to wear, and scout the island. I want to know the source of the spell that’s keeping this place shrouded,” I respond, and having found my shorts, I pull them on and button them up.

  My brain feels like it’s going to explode. I can’t believe what just happened with Apollo and Fontus. My cheeks still feel heated with the embarrassment of having Fontus’ mouth on my pussy while I swallowed Apollo’s dick. My blushes aren’t from feeling it was wrong but from enjoying it. After everything I’ve been through the last few days with Pluto, I shouldn’t want the attention of two men, but as we dress and leave the room to search for a way off the island, I feel safe in between them.

  “We need to stay close to Eva.” Fontus is behind me, his hand on the small of my back. “The men around here are crazy. We’ve already had to kill three of them.”

  “Is that how you got the injuries?” Apollo is in front of me. His massive hand dwarfing mine in its hold.

  “Yes, one of the men was trying to attack her. We also made an escape and very nearly got to the water, but these strange creatures stopped us,” Fontus explains, and I look between them, both men much taller than me.

  “The island is magical. There are creatures here I’ve never seen before. All the fruits and vegetables grow in abundance. It’s as though the island is hidden away from everyone, so the inhabitants can just breed for Pluto,” I add.

  Apollo frowns.

  “It is concealed. I didn’t know it was here until I hit it, basically.”

  “So as a god, even you couldn’t see it from the outside?” Fontus stops, and we halt as well.

  We’re out in the garden now, the hot sun beating down on us. My dry skin longs for the rush of salty water over it.

  “No, I couldn’t. That mixed with my suppressed powers is worrying me more than anything. How long has Pluto had these camps and been breeding his army? How the hell didn’t my father or any of the other gods know?”

  We all fall silent, the burden of what we’ve discovered weighing heavily on us. If this has been happening for years, then Pluto could already have enough demigods to take over the world. I wrap my hand around my necklace. Its watery symbolism gives me strength as we follow Apollo back to the place on the island where he was able to land. I’m surprised Pluto doesn’t know of its existence.

  It doesn’t take long to get down to the sea. This section of beach is tucked away from the view of the rest of the island, and none of the bird-like creatures descend on us. It’s a forgotten part and the reason Apollo was able to come ashore without being noticed.

  “I’m afraid I’m not as good a swimmer as you two are. You’ll need to help me. My boat got somewhat destroyed when I hit the island.” Apollo picks up a piece of wood from what must have once been his boat.

  “I’m sure we can do that.” Fontus leads me down nearer to the sea. “You ready?”

  The scent of the ocean invades my nostrils, and I can feel my strength growing. The power of the waves re-invigorates my every pour. Shutting my eyes, I call to the sea, and my father’s abilities that have been suppressed surge back into my body. Holding my hands out in front of me, I summon the water, and it rises up to meet my fingertips. It’s warm and welcoming, but I don’t dive in. Looking to my left, I see the same expression on Fontus’ face that I must be wearing on my own. Bliss.

  I turn to Apollo, but he’s not watching us. His head is turned back toward the heart of the island. I can instantly tell he’s worried about what is happening here. What the island means for the future of the gods. I hush the water’s rejoicing and allow it to drop back down to its natural flow. Fontus looks at me.

  “What are you doing?”

  I kneel down before the water and dip a finger into it.

  “Go on the wave, tell my father where we are. Get him to send a message to Jupiter.”

  “Eva?” Fontus questions with a lick of anger in his tone.

  “I can’t leave,” I tell him while standing back up.

  “You are getting the fuck off this island before anything else happens to you. I’ll die before I let Pluto touch you again,” Fontus demands.

  Apollo must hear our conversation for he snaps out of his reflection on the island.

  “What are you talking about, Eva?”

  “We need to stay here.” I look back to the jungle and where I know the house stands. “The water will let people know where we are, and they will come with their own army. But for now, we need to find out what Pluto’s overall plans are. How many camps he has? Where the babies who’ve already been born are taken? We need to learn his plans, so we can put a stop to them. It’s the only way.”

  “That’s a dangerous thing to do,” Apollo responds.

  “I know, but as you said to me when you first saw me, I’m a silly little girl. I’ve done nothing but live of
f my father’s reputation. It’s time to change all of that and be the demigoddess I was born to be.”

  I have Pluto to thank for my change of heart. He didn’t break me in the way he thought he would when he took me against my will. No, he helped me to grow up, and now I won’t stop until I prevent him from doing what he did to others. Magic and mystery is at work on this island, but between Apollo, Fontus, and me, we have powers too. We’ll bring an end to the breeding camps forever.

  “Fontus?” Apollo pulls me to him. There’s no question that Jupiter’s son will also be staying on the island even with subdued powers. It’s his job to keep the existence of the gods hidden from the world. “Are you staying or going?”

  I don’t expect Fontus to stay with me. He’s been gone from the sea for so much longer than I have. He’s suffered more than I have.

  “Go,” I urge him.

  He shakes his head.

  “Not without you. We’re in this together until the very end.”

  I know part of me should question Eva’s decision to remain on the island and worry that something has happened to her sanity, but I understand her reasons for staying. They’re the same as mine. To put a stop to Pluto and his scheme to breed his own army of gods for the Underworld.

  We walk back to the house in silence. Eva collects another couple of papayas from a tree. I don’t have the heart to tell her that their ability to prevent pregnancy is more of an old wives’ tale than fact. If it’s already happened, there’s nothing we can do. But if it hasn’t, at least Apollo and I will be able to protect her from it occurring with any of the other men on the island.

  Our room is bathed in the evening sunlight when we return to it. The large bed welcomes me into its comfort when I collapse down on it. I’m still a little weary from my fever, but I’m healing well.

  “I’ll go and see if I can find another empty room for me to stay in.” Apollo stands awkwardly at the door. The memory of his strong hand wrapped around my dick resurfaces, and I feel myself getting hard at the thought.

  “No.” The word leaves my lips before I have a chance to understand what I’m saying. Trying to backtrack quickly, I add, “It’s safer for Eva if we all stay in here together. If one of us can’t be here to protect her, then at least the other one is.”

  Eva slides next to me on the bed and rests her head on my chest.

  “Thank you,” she purrs.

  “Are you sure?” Apollo asks and takes a seat on a rocking chair at the window. The sun’s rays illuminating his blond curls.

  “We’ll find out as much as we can about Pluto’s schemes, but we need to keep Eva safe,” I confirm.

  Apollo nods.

  “I’ll need to keep hidden as much possible. If my uncle learns I’m here, it will put you both in danger.”

  “Agreed.”

  “What do we do first?” Eva sits up on the bed.

  She looks weary, and I realize she’s probably not slept properly for days.

  “Tonight, we sleep. Tomorrow, we explore the island. Make notes of the guards. Numbers of people here. Look for women who’ve had children. Ask them what has happened to the babies. We find out as much as we can and get ready for when back-up arrives,” Apollo tells us, and I’m grateful he has noticed Eva’s exhaustion as well.

  “There is a lady in the kitchen—she prepares all the food. I think she’ll be good to talk to. I met her earlier, and I felt she was keeping things from me,” Eva informs us as she slides from the bed.

  “Good idea. You speak to her. Fontus, see what you can find out from some of the other men. They can’t all be crazed from the need for sex. I’ll see what I can find out about the island. I’ll stick to the shadows, so I can’t be seen.” Apollo gives us our orders, and we both nod in agreement with them. I’m glad he’s here with us. His dominant nature allows him to take control and assign tasks.

  “I’m going to have a bath, if that’s ok.” Eva meanders over to the bathroom attached to our room. “I want to try something now that I have some of my powers back.”

  I’m intrigued to know what she means, so I follow her with Apollo hot on my heels, his own curiosity piqued.

  Eva kneels down beside the bath and turns the tap on.

  “Regular water. It’s good to drink, but there’s nothing like a salt water bath.”

  She places her hand in the middle of the running water.

  “Are you doing what I think you’re doing?” I question and place my hand in the bath water. I instantly feel the saltiness of it. “I’m coming in with you.”

  I remove my clothes quicker than Eva can and jump into the bath big enough for two, obviously another ploy by Pluto to encourage relationships between his guests.

  “Hey, not fair,” she protests with a sexy little pout on her face but at the same time removes her clothes and squeezes into the tub with me. The water cleanses our skin. We spend so much time in the sea that the absence of water lapping at our pores dries it out.

  “This is bliss.” Eva moans and slips down under the water.

  I remember Apollo is here with us when I hear the low rumble of desire emanate from his throat. My dick hardens under the weight of his hooded stare. Eva resurfaces and must sense the sexual tension in the room, for she instantly looks between us both.

  “Eva, I want to watch you ride Fontus. Are you all right to do that?” Apollo lowers his hands into his shorts and re-arranges himself, presumably to relieve the pressure in his suddenly tight looking pants.

  I don’t want to force Eva into anything she’s not ready for, but the sparkle in her eyes tells me she wants this as much as I do. She rises out of the water, like a goddess emerging from the sea, and positions herself over my hard cock. I stroke it a few times, and then she lowers her encapsulating warmth over me, sheathing me fully to the hilt.

  “Fuck!” Apollo exclaims and lowers his shorts. His long length stands proud. He prowls toward us for a better view, holding his dick in his hand the entire time and squeezing it tightly. I can’t stop watching.

  Eva rises up from the water again, and I turn my attention back to her.

  “Beautiful,” I tell her, taking her left breast in my hand and caressing it. Apollo uses his free hand to tease at her right nipple.

  “Stunning,” he says.

  “Full,” Eva breathlessly mouths, her body now raising and lowering over my cock at a steady pace. The magical need for sex fills the room again. Sensibilities forgotten as Apollo strokes himself, and I assist Eva by burying my dick deep within her. Eva leans over toward Apollo and locks lips with him, their tongues dancing together in a passionate tango.

  Our movements become more urgent, and my need to get as far inside her as I can more pressing.

  “So good.” Eva parts from Apollo. “Not salty … earthy. Different.”

  She kisses me next, and I can taste Apollo’s earthiness on her lips.

  He stops stroking himself and pulls our mouths apart. He forces a dominating kiss onto my lips, and I melt under his power. He’s different to everything I’ve known before, and it excites me. I don’t understand it, but I know that even though the magic controls our desires this need between the three of us is natural.

  Eva whimpers her impending release, and Apollo takes his cock back in hand and strokes harder. My own orgasm shoots from my balls as Eva sinks down onto me one final time. The water of the bath sloshes over the side while her pussy pulsates around my dick and milks the cum from within me. All I can see is a fireball of stars. My head’s spinning so much I’m only vaguely aware of Apollo pushing our heads together and covering our faces with his own release.

  The magical spell breaks its cocoon around us, and guilt develops in my gut.

  What are we doing?

  How can we stop this?

  Eva pushes herself off me, her cheeks reddened again.

  Apollo is the only one who seems calm. He reaches out and draws a line through the cum on both our faces.

  “We can’t stop this spell
on us. We made our decision to stay. Whatever happens on the island will stay here if that’s what you want?” he tries to reassure us.

  Tears fill Eva’s eyes, and one drips into the bath water. It turns instantly cold around me.

  I feel and see her sadness. It matches my own.

  We are no longer in control of our own destinies.

  Our decision to give ourselves over to the fight by remaining on the island might leave us all spiraling out of control, and Eva … pregnant.

  Stepping from the bathroom, my gaze travels over the length of the bed and the two figures sound asleep on the mattress. Fontus is spooning Eva, his brawny body protecting hers after the sadness of her tears last night. It had pulled at something deep inside my chest. They’d both been exhausted and needed sleep.

  The desire to feel Eva’s snug pussy or Fontus’ ass squeezing my cock like a vice is hard to ignore. I’m not sure whether it’s entirely the influence of this place. Last night, I was a slave to my desires. I’m certain that next time we’re overcome with whatever inhabits these walls, I’ll end up fucking one of them or both.

  The little princess is stubborn. Remaining here will only lead her to become ripe with a child in her belly. Although I want her with a burning need, I know I can’t allow it to be mine. She and Fontus are lovers. If things had progressed naturally, I’m more than sure they’d have ended up together anyway. If her fate is to bear a child, it is better that it’s his.

  Yet I can’t erase the memory of how beautiful they’d both looked with my cum painted over their faces.

  Dark and light.

  My ebony and Ivory.

  Cock semi-hard at the thought, I walk silently across the room, patting myself dry with a towel. The early morning shower was enough to rid myself of any lingering sleep. Refreshing after the heat of the hot tropical night and their tempting bodies pressed so intimately against my own.
