Gabriel’s cock bobbed eagerly as Casillus’ teasing mouth came close to his ball sack a couple of times but never actually touched it, let alone Gabriel’s aching shaft. He sunk his teeth into his lower lip and whined softly. Without warning Casillus then lightly bit his right ass cheek, which had Gabriel squirming and squeaking instead. The Mer gripped Gabriel’s hips to keep him in place.
No moving, my love, Casillus said sternly.
You bit me! Gabriel feigned outrage, but the sting of Casillus’ bite was actually incredibly arousing rather than hurtful.
And I’m going to bite you quite a bit more, Casillus laughed. You are so sweet. I want to devour you.
Like the momos?
You are much sweeter than the momos, Casillus answered throatily.
The near weightlessness of being underwater allowed the Mer to move him in any way he wanted, and Casillus could easily circle him as well. Nothing was off limits. Nothing was beyond reach. There was no hard bed beneath their backs or sheets for their legs to get tangled in. They were completely free, and the glory of the palace and the reef all around them was more than just an incredible backdrop. They weren’t separated from the wide world by a bedroom, but a part of it. Them together, making love, was part of the beauty of this place.
Casillus kissed a line along Gabriel’s hip and up his side. As he did so, the Mer brushed his hands over the sensitive places along the insides of Gabriel’s arms. Pleasurable goose flesh broke out all over his body. The Mer’s fingers dug into the muscles of his shoulders, massaging them, as his mouth glided up the back of Gabriel’s neck and into his waving hair. Gabriel moaned and reached back to touch the Mer. His hands tangled in Casillus’ long locks as he pulled the Mer closer to him. Casillus sucked on his neck.
All the while they made love, fish flitted around just outside the crystal latticework. The dark shadows of sharks passed by, too, their sleek, aerodynamic bodies surging through the water with ease. The sail-like forms and whip-like tails of manta rays soared overhead as well like living kites. Gabriel knew that these creatures were only from Casillus’ imagination, but he was sure that this was exactly how it would be once they really were in the palace. He would insist on them making love just like this the first day they were there. Gabriel’s musings were abruptly ended as Casillus suddenly nipped Gabriel’s ear.
I must not be pleasing you if you are so easily distracted, Casillus wheedled.
Pleasing me? Oh, you are so pleasing me.
Gabriel had mostly been a passive partner in their lovemaking so far. His body was alight with the sensations of being touched and kissed and sucked. But at that moment, Gabriel saw the powerful, sleek muscles of the Mer’s bare left hip and thigh. Gabriel turned and dove down so that he could kiss that soft, velvety skin. Casillus stilled and then unfurled, arching backwards so that Gabriel could kiss more of him.
I’m not the only one that tastes sweet, Gabriel murmured as he kissed Casillus again and again.
The glow from the palace made exploring the Mer’s body like wandering through hills and valleys of light and dark with all of it covered in silk. His mouth followed along the curve of Casillus’ hipbone around to the Mer’s powerful back. The shift brushed against Gabriel’s forehead as he ran his lips along Casillus’ muscular ass. Gabriel placed a long passionate kiss at the top of the crevice between the two magnificent globes of the Mer’s buttocks. Casillus shivered beautifully beneath his lips. The Mer suddenly contorted himself so that they were in a sixty-nine position. The soft light from the palace lit his beautiful face.
What do you want to do, Casillus? Gabriel’s body was already taut with his anticipation for what he hoped would happen, which was for them to suck each other off at the same time.
Casillus’ mouth curled slowly into a sensual smile. The Mer knew what he wanted and it was a mutual desire. Casillus leaned in towards Gabriel’s bobbing, erect cock and licked the tip of it. Gabriel’s hips jerked and his cock waved wildly in the water. He covered his mouth even though his nervous, eager laughter was all internal. The Mer shook his head as if Gabriel had been naughty, but he was grinning too.
Two can play at that game, Casillus. See if you can keep it together when I do this!
At that moment, Gabriel reached out and grasped Casillus’ slender hips as he fastened his lips onto the head of the Mer’s cock. He sucked hard. It was his first real taste of Casillus. Salty, sweet, delicious. It was liquid sex. The taste alone had his cock leaking. He forced his eyelids to stay open even as they longed to close. He just had to see the Mer’s reaction to being sucked, and as he watched he was not disappointed.
Casillus tossed his head back. His long hair flowed in dark waves around his face like a halo. His mouth opened to reveal white teeth and a pink tongue that jutted forward delightfully. If Gabriel’s mouth hadn’t been full already he would have wanted to suck on it, too. A gush of precum pooled on Gabriel’s tongue. Salty, though less briney than the sea. A hint of citrus, sweet and sour, followed and puckered his lips. His stomach grumbled, wanting more. Gabriel swallowed and slid further down Casillus’ length.
The Mer’s fingers were suddenly flexing against Gabriel’s ass before Casillus dove in to take Gabriel’s cock into his own mouth. Gabriel gasped and almost lost contact with Casillus’ member. He quickly shut his mouth tightly around the thick, hard cock in his mouth. Both of them sucked.
Gabriel’s eyelids shut tightly. The pleasure was like nothing he had experienced before. Giving pleasure and getting pleasure had always been incredibly intertwined for him. Those times he had been able to really let go with another person, he had cum just from sucking the other guy off. While having Casillus’ lips on him, for real this time, while his own were on his beloved Mer’s cock was incredible, it was their mental connection that was sending him into the stratosphere. Impossible heat built in his balls and groin. He didn’t know how long he could hold off on cumming, but before he did he was going to give the Mer as much pleasure as possible.
He swallowed around Casillus’ cock, which had the Mer bucking. Gabriel gripped the Mer’s hips tighter to keep from losing that glorious cock. He loved the feeling of Casillus’ penis sliding down his throat. And then Casillus’ mouth slid down his shaft and his lower lip “kissed” Gabriel’s balls.
Gabriel experienced a full body shudder. His cock was burning hot as his arousal grew inside of him. Some of his precum gushed out into the back of Casillus’ throat. The Mer swallowed it eagerly. Gabriel opened his own throat and sank down on Casillus’ thick member, but it was so big. There was a slight strain as he stretched his lips as wide as they could go. Then he felt the brush of Casillus’ balls against his lower lip. He had the Mer completely inside of him. For a moment, both of them were fully engulfed by the other. It was a level of intimacy that Gabriel had never truly known before. Their bodies spun slowly in the slight current.
But then Casillus was drawing his mouth off of Gabriel’s cock, a millimeter at a time, so that Gabriel felt every bit of loss as that hot, heavenly suction left him. His hips desperately wanted to thrust forward, to dive back inside that tight, sucking cavern, but the Mer held him in place. His balls felt like they were filled with something molten rather than just semen. He was shaking like a leaf.
Casillus’ lips were now barely brushing the tip of his cock. The Mer’s lips parted and his tongue slowly, oh, so slowly snaked out and licked the slit. Gabriel nearly bit down on Casillus’ plump cock by accident, but he covered his teeth with his lips at the last moment and merely pressed down. He felt Casillus’ pleasure flood over their bond, and it was as if there was this unending loop of heat and arousal between them.
Gabriel was lost for a moment in the pounding heat of Casillus’ mind. Everything was red with lust and desire and love. It was like being inside the Mer’s heart. He heard the rush and shush of Casillus’ blood. It surrounded Gabriel like the sea and he was swept up in it. His arms wound around Casillus’ waist as the Mer drew him close again,
swallowing down his cock once more.
Gabriel began to move his mouth up and down Casillus’ shaft as well. He had to do it now before he came. He was so close. He was hanging on by a thread. The Mer’s cock pulsed in his mouth. It was so alive and velvety. Casillus’ hands scrabbled at his hips. It was the Mer’s desire that sent Gabriel over the edge. His own cock jerked, shuddered, and then he was cumming and cumming and cumming.
Gabriel then lost the ability to do anything but suck and feel as his cock spilled what felt like an ocean of semen into Casillus’ mouth. The Mer drank it down easily. Using gills to breathe had more advantages than just letting one breathe underwater. Gabriel chuckled at the thought between moans of pleasure. His mouth, however, remained suctioned around Casillus’ cock as it continued to pulse and swell in his mouth. He could no longer get all the way down the shaft.
Casillus suddenly started withdrawing his cock from between Gabriel’s lips even as he released Gabriel’s own flaccid organ from his mouth, leaving one final kiss on the tip. Gabriel tried to hold the Mer still, but Casillus was insistent.
I want my cock in your ass, Gabriel, when I cum. I need to be inside of you that way. I have fantasized about it for far too long. Please. The Mer’s murmured pleas had Gabriel opening his mouth and releasing him even as his own cock twitched almost painfully. He wasn’t ready yet to be erect again, but he knew he would be soon.
Casillus smoothly swam around him until his mouth was on Gabriel’s buttocks. His fingers parted Gabriel’s buttcheeks and his tongue, hot, so very hot, painted a line along the crevice and over his quivering anus. Gabriel’s mouth opened in a gasp and a few bubbles came out, rising up to burst against the crystal latticework above them.
Casillus’ tongue flickered inside of him, leaving a trace of warmth behind each time it slipped in and pulled out. The Mer’s fingers pried open his asshole further. Gabriel was already lubricated and eager to be penetrated, but the Mer took his time with his tongue and fingers as he plumbed Gabriel’s interior. Those long fingers slid inside of him, probing deep alongside Casillus’ tongue. Gabriel’s spent cock was struggling to become erect again and his hips were moving restlessly. A steady stream of bubbles burst from his lips as he moaned in pleasure.
Casillus’ front was suddenly pressing along Gabriel’s back. His large cock slid between Gabriel’s ass cheeks. Gabriel tried to draw in a deep breath, but, of course, he pulled in only water. Was there no panting with gills? There was definitely trembling, though. So much trembling. Casillus was going to be inside of him! He wanted it so badly that he pushed back against the large, plump cockhead that was poised just outside his opening. However, Casillus grasped his hips once more, holding Gabriel still and in place.
Casillus, Gabriel whined.
Please. One moment. I must control myself or this will end all too soon, the Mer pleaded.
Gabriel could feel Casillus’ desire like the vibrations of a pounding drum. Casillus was teetering on the edge of control. His body wanted to just ram inside of Gabriel and rut, but his heart would not allow him to do that. This was their first time. He wanted it to be tender.
Casillus, let it be what your body, and mine, need it to be, Gabriel urged as he reached back and pulled at the Mer’s hips. I know you love me. And I will feel that love even if you give in to what you’re feeling.
I do not wish to hurt—
You won’t. Let go. I can take it, Gabriel said.
The Mer said nothing more. Desire crashed like a tidal wave inside of him and words were swept away in its path. Now that Gabriel had told him to let go he finally did. Gabriel just hoped he would be able to hang on for the ride.
Casillus held on to his hips with one hand while he reached around with the other and gripped Gabriel’s semi-hard cock, which almost instantly sprang to full hardness. He began to stroke Gabriel firmly. Root to tip. Tip to root. A twist of his wrist with each upward stroke. A spreading of Gabriel’s slit with his thumb when he reached the top before sliding back down again.
You’re supposed to be in me!
I will be. Casillus nipped his right ear lobe.
And then the Mer was pushing inside of him. That wide, plump cockhead spread his anus to what felt like the breaking point before it popped through to the other side. Gabriel’s mouth opened in an “O” of pleasured pain. But the pain was blotted out as Casillus stroked him harder and faster even as he sank his cock deeper inside of Gabriel’s body. It was hard to know what to pay attention to: the cock spreading his tender tissues wide or the hand that had his balls tightening against his body with the need to cum again all too soon.
Finally, with Casillus fully seated within him, both of them stilled. Through slitted lids Gabriel saw the swirl of colors from the coral, fish and palace spread out above them. It was a wonderland. It was glorious. Then Casillus was moving.
The Mer pulled out halfway and then slid back in, as if testing the waters. Without a bed or floor or wall to be pushed against, Casillus’ strength was the only thing that kept him in place. Gabriel was amazed by that. He was utterly controlled by the cock in his ass and those powerful hands on his hips.
Casillus pulled out again and Gabriel’s toes curled as he thrust back inside. There was a sizzling sensation inside of him as his prostate was rubbed. The Mer kissed his neck as he plunged in and out of Gabriel’s body. His teeth raked over Gabriel’s jaw leaving marks that Gabriel knew he would touch later and remember this moment. Gabriel tossed his head back to give Casillus better access to leave evidence that they had been together like this. The Mer complied. Bites, sucks, bruising kisses.
Casillus’ cock was so deep inside of him. Molten heat was building in his core. He felt like the water should be boiling around them. His own penis jutted forward, needy and throbbing. Casillus ground his groin against Gabriel’s ass. Gabriel’s cock jumped and precum clouded the water. He was on edge all over again. Riding a wave of euphoria and arousal. He needed more. He needed the wave to crest.
Gabriel reached back to try to hold the Mer tight against him so that they would be completely connected. His fingernails raked along Casillus’ right ass cheek and hip, marking the Mer in turn. Casillus grunted in pleasure and slammed all the way inside Gabriel just as he had wanted. And the wave crested. Oh, how it crested.
Gabriel and Casillus’ orgasms came almost simultaneously. Hot semen, so much warmer than the water around them, spurted inside of him, coating his insides in heat. His own cum spurted out in a long creamy rope before dissipating. Casillus managed to get some of it on his fingers, and he smeared it on Gabriel’s lips before kissing him deeply.
The shared experience of both penetrating and being penetrated, of cumming and kissing, of being taken and taking, formed a feedback loop of pleasure. Gabriel could not tell where he ended and Casillus began or vice versa. Even though he had already orgasmed, the connection between them had his body still jerking as if he had put his finger in an electric socket. Pleasure spiraled into every part of him, shaking him to the core, scraping him down to the bone of pure sensation. It was only having the Mer’s powerful arms wrapped around him that anchored him at all.
Gabriel reached up and threaded his fingers with Casillus’. His limbs still trembled and he was still lost in the haze of arousal, but he needed to do this, to connect on a conscious level as well as on all of the subconscious ones. Casillus kissed the back of his neck. Dreamy, sleepy, loving kisses that weren’t meant to inflame, just to comfort. And they did. For the first time since his parents’ deaths Gabriel was not at all afraid, and he realized he truly was not alone.
I love you, Casillus. I’ll never leave you, Gabriel murmured. I’ll be with you forever and always.

FIRST MEETING
Gabriel curled into Casillus’ arms as the waves rocked them back and forth like a mother rocking a child. His eyes were half shut as he recovered from their lovemaking. He sensed more than saw the lights from the imagined Mer city dying away. Casillus was
undoubtedly bringing them back to reality again.
Gabriel frowned slightly, as it seemed awfully dark now that Emralis’ glow was gone. He would have expected there to still be sunlight streaming down through the waves above them. But maybe they had spent longer in the dream of Emralis than he had thought. If that was the case then they needed to fully wake up so that they could meet Corey to pursue their plan to get the statue out of the temple.
He fully opened his eyes, not really wanting to leave the loose-limbed, sensual state that post-sex always brought, but as soon as he did he froze. He was in the deepest, darkest water that he had ever seen. Darker than what he had been plunged into the night his parents died. It was an inky blackness that surrounded them. They must be so deep down that the sky could only ever be a faint memory here. He could not see the ocean floor, either. It could be a foot or fathoms below them. Surely Casillus would not bring them back to consciousness in this frightening place. Not willingly. Had something happened to the Mer? Why was he silent?
Casillus? CASILLUS? Gabriel’s voice was suddenly shrill.
He curled tighter against the Mer’s body instinctively as the darkness seemed to press in on them, but something felt wrong about Casillus’ form. Instead of the sleek, silky skin he expected, he felt something rubbery and slippery. He froze and swallowed shallowly.
Casillus? Casillus, are you with me?
Lights suddenly seemed to wink on. They were small greenish-yellow lights, but they weren’t electric. They reminded him of the phosphorescent glow of sea creatures, but they were all uniform in size and shape. They were round and about the size of tennis balls. These “lights” had started appearing far below him, one by one, and they seemed to follow a curving line that got closer and closer until suddenly they were all around him. That was when he knew the truth of them. The “lights” were phosphorescent disks on a massive tentacle that was attached to something too far away to see. The tentacle was holding his naked body almost tenderly. Gabriel wasn’t in Casillus’ arms. He was in Cthulhu’s.
