World Witout Wizards: Guard

Screw the inn! Why do we have to stay here? Why would a normal single guy refuse to have a good time with a beautiful half-n.a.k.e.d girl? Or a guy who's already dating someone.

I couldn't refuse. If I knew how dangerous it would be, I probably wouldn't have got involved. Well, I certainly wouldn't have got involved. But I couldn't know. So, we'll go to the river! I nodded decisively. I might never get a second chance.

"Good for you," Lyska nodded promising. My heart fluttered as she lightly touched me with her palm. She looked back, making sure that no one followed us, and we hurried to the river in a roundabout way.

If we're seen together, not only would the villagers gossip, but we would probably get whipped. We have to be careful. My mother is likely to protect me from father's wrath, but Oulsast won't forgive Lysandra and she'll be punished severely. He isn't a very experienced warlock, but he has demonic blood. Such people never forgive or forget anything.

We carefully walked past the yards with children playing, literally crept under the fences. If a child saw us, the whole village would have heard about me and Lyska. Dogs were barking at us, but it wasn't that bad. People might think they were barking at a fox. Finally, we reached the water. It wasn't the stream where the villagers washed their clothes. It was the village chief's pond.

"What if the chief punishes us for swimming in his pond?"

"Chicken?" Lyska snorted and took off her clothes. Damn it! The warlock could choose his disciples properly.

Her b.r.e.a.s.ts seemed beckoning and firm. I wanted so much to touch her. Lysandra's skin was perfectly smooth, other girls had hair under their arms.

"Why are you standing still?" the girl laughed and playfully slapped my baggy pants. I couldn't hide my excitement.

"Just a minute." I felt my cheeks turning bright red and my pants becoming tight. Lysandra was slowly walking down the gentle shore into the water, which was so clean and clear that I could see the bottom. I began to undress quickly.

Dammit, I'm not even wearing underpants. Although I don't need them now... It's good that my only clothes were shirts and pants and my shoes.

I immediately took them off and followed her.

The girl didn't hesitate. She swam quite far from the shore. To be honest, I wasn't very experienced with swimming, so I tried my best, rowing with my arms, but it seemed to me that I didn't even move…

I caught up with Lyska and suddenly found myself next to her. Apparently, Lysandra also didn't expect that I would overtake her so quickly. She chuckled, swam closer, and I almost drowned. The girl suddenly wrapped her arms and legs around me and hugged me. I didn't swim that well. The only thing I felt, even in this position, was her hot hugs and hard n.i.p.p.l.es sliding on my skin.

The girl smiled slyly and pressed her lips against mine. I could barely breathe. A sweet liquid like wild apple juice was in my mouth, and so was her tongue. Is her saliva so tasty? I swallowed this liquid and got ready. She moved her h.i.p.s. Would I lose my v.i.r.g.i.n.i.t.y?

Instead, the minx pushed me off with her feet, diving into the depths. What the hell! I can't miss this chance! Taking as much air into my lungs as I could, I dived after her. The water was clear and not salty. It looked like Lyska had evaporated. Maybe she went down to those dark algae. Oh, it's so deep here. They grew all over the bottom. Where can I find her?

What looked like a big fish, more than five feet long, with b.r.e.a.s.ts which could hardly be placed in my palm, was swimming near the seaweed. I had big hands, by the way, half the size of my head! Well, I had a normal head like everyone else.

I decided to catch the minx while I still had air in my lungs. Though she swam much better than me, I wouldn't allow some girl to beat me.

I dived, working my arms and legs as hard as I could. Lysandra was brisk like a fish, she swam between the seaweed without moving her hands. Only her legs motioned slightly from side to side.

Though I started to think she really looked like a fish, I knew it was her: the gray-pink skin; the a.s.s periodically appearing in the grass. I was going crazy with excitement. I'm gonna catch you, fishy!

Wow, I grabbed her hand. The girl turned around. I could see her b.r.e.a.s.ts, waist, and face. Everything was covered in scales. Suddenly I understood that this creature wasn't Lysandra.

Although they were similar in shape, clearly visible in the water. Why hadn't I noticed that she had fins on her legs and webbed fingers – like a frog?

I'm unlucky. Who is it: a drowned woman, a mermaid or a water maiden? I was frightened and trembled with horror.

I smiled and waved my hand stupidly.

What am I to do? If she doesn't want to let me go, I can't get away from her. It is useless to fight her in her own element. I'll try to do whatever I can.

Waving my hand to her, I swam to the top. My lungs ached like when I drank my father's brew. It was easier to swim up, I saw the sun shining and knew where to go. I saw Lysandra glancing around and apparently looking for me. Great, I'll surprise her.

I moved my arms, but couldn't move an inch. The water maiden grabbed my leg and shook her head, pointing to Lyska.

Do you want me to be your husband? Sorry, baby, I can't live in water. I'd rather stay with her.

I waved the water maiden in parting, jerked my legs, and she let me go.

No more air. I won't get to Lyska, but I'll try.

I surfaced back right in front of the warlock's disciple and gulped down some air. It was dizzying. The girl looked at me in surprise and even admiration. I took advantage of that and pulled her to me.

Lyska didn't object, she wrapped her legs around me and rubbed against my groin. I was excited, the girl bit her lips and fell below. I struggled to keep both of us afloat, working with my hands and feet, but at that moment I forgot how to breathe.

Unable to stand her teasing behavior, I pulled her to me, and we were both in the water. I was inside her. My heart was racing and my lungs needed oxygen, but my loins wanted something completely different. Lysandra indulged my d.e.s.i.r.e, and, maybe, she succ.u.mbed to it. But all ended too quickly, as this often happened the first time…

"I'm sorry, I didn't want to…" I was trying to justify myself.

"That's exactly what you wanted, you son of a bitch!" the girl cursed in a low voice.

"I thought you called me."

"Really? Let's just say I wanted the same!" Lyska shouted angrily; her eyes flashed with black flame. It was gone in a second, and the girl, smiling playfully, ran her hand over my torso, going down, and then squeezed my groin so that the pain cramped my legs and arms.

"Oh," that was the only thing I could say before the water got into my mouth. I closed it and tried to keep breathing. But the minx was pulling me down, deeper into the water.

Something that only vaguely resembled stalks was sticking out of the algae. The tentacles, blacker than the night itself, wrapped around my ankle and began to pull me to the bottom. I could see a mouth, the size of half a cow.

I didn't have a knife, so I just clawed. I guessed I should have tried to dig my teeth into it. But everything was happening too fast. I managed only to rest my feet and hands in the sand before falling into the mouth.
