Saltwater Siren
by
Muffy Wilson
Blurb:
Was it love at first sight? Perhaps. Many thought it might
have been the work of the unscrupulous Sea Witch, Hermione, long a bitter and
banished King’s Court Matron. So, was it the crafty wiles of Hermione, scheming
to seek her sordid revenge, or was it a simple matter of serendipity? All we
know for certain is that two young royals, one landed and one not, met during a
raging storm as fierce and intense as the love they would none too soon escape.
Was it fate, design, or — perhaps — black magic?
Who’s to say?
What we do know is that it was sensuous, erotic, and
insatiable as they fought to extinguish the passions that flamed their heat by
indulging in every desire that swept them into one another’s arms. Their shared
carnal voracity fanned an appetite no amount of indulgence could satisfy.
After all, it happened…Once upon a time…
Excerpt:
The sea was viciously dark against
the waves as they uncurled in a white so brilliant and speckled with iridescence,
they resembled the most valuable of pearls. The white rolling waves crashed
down upon the swells of the ocean with a loud and resounding smash, then danced
quickly across one to another until the wave expired, only to be followed by
another and another, then another. It seemed, as she rode the waves cautiously,
that the waves were building strength, that the sound of them crashing onto the
swells was getting louder, building to a fevered pitch bringing with it a
foreboding of disaster. Her fear for their safety was mounting and upper most
in her pounding chest was her search, rising with panic, for the young elegant
man. At once, a wave curled over the ship, sending men into the sea and causing
Saira to lose sight of her prince.
The violent seas
were perilous even to the princess herself, so as she looked for him quickly,
but deliberately, she was careful of waves tossing debris, trunks, ropes,
planks, harpoons and other tools, and bodies in tumbling masses to her front.
When the center mast broke, the furious wind brought it down on the middle deck
splitting the ship nearly in two, pitching everything into the gaping darkness
of ocean.
Frantically, the little princess
searched the shifting wreckage for her prince. She knew not his name so could
not call out to him, not that he would have heard her over the resounding force
of the ferocious seas. She felt something, or someone, hit against her tailfin
and when she spun to check, it was the disappearing outstretched hand of a
sailor. She could not save him, the dark grasp of the sea pulled him away from
her so quickly. When she finally spied the prince, his eyes were closed. His
arms and legs dangled from his limp and tossing body, now weaken by his fight
for survival. He appeared lifeless and sent Saira into a heightened fear as his
body could not bear his weightless life and he drifted slowly to the waiting
onyx depths below.
