When she opened her eyes, everything had changed around her. No longer was she in her bed in her tiny cell, but outside in darkness, the only light thrown from the nearly full moon above. A soft wind blew, and the scent of jasmine feathered the air. She floated several inches above the mossy earth floor.
A small boat rowed to the edge of a misty lake, and a hand beckoned to her. Excitement welled when she saw Erich in his true form, not the deadly nightshade being. Sprinting to the lake, he took her hand into his, and pressed a kiss into her palm, before helping her step inside the boat.
She settled back in the boat, while he rowed out into the lake. Her eyes settled on the midnight black sky above, and the scattering of stars held within it.
Princess lulled her head back, her arm outside the boat, fingertips grazing the pleasantly warm water. She wasn’t sure how much time passed before Erich secured the oars, and held his arms out to her. Gleefully, she crawled into his warm embrace, and relaxed against him. His fingers stroked her bare arms, his lips pressed against her hair.
He spoke no words, but at that moment, no words needed spoken. Princess felt something she hadn’t experienced for a very long time.
Contentment.
Yes, she was content to remain like this, adrift with Erich, for a very long time. To not have to think about returning from this wondrous place back to her body, back to her little cell. Back to the knowledge that soon she would need to smuggle her brothers out of the dangerous confines of the Swan Club.
Why couldn’t they stay together in this bliss forever?
When he retook the oars and rowed the boat back to the edge of the lake, Princess wondered if this is where their night ended. Even if it did, she wouldn’t trade their time together, no matter how short, even to be the featured dancer on stage at the club.
He helped her from the boat, and no sooner than her bare feet touched the ground did he pull her into his arms, his firm lips crushing down onto hers, parting them. His tongue searched for hers. At that moment, she nearly swooned, and collapsed against him.
He pushed the filmy white fabric of the nightgown she wore off her shoulders. It slid from her body, and pooled into a puddle at her feet. She dared to run her hands along the hard planes of his chest, over his flat belly. Every touch was something new.
He pushed down his own white gauzy trousers, and they stood face to face, naked beneath the moonlight. Princess could not break her gaze from his handsome face. When he stepped closer to her, his full erection pressed against her bare belly and enflamed every nerve within her.
Gently, he lowered her to the soft bed of leaves on the earth, and stretched out fully on top of her. If by their own will, her legs bent at the knee and pulled back to received his cock now pressed against the wet entrance of her womanhood. Her body vibrated both from excitement, and a bit of fear of what might come.
His body lurched forward, and the force of his cock entering her caused her body to involuntarily arch upward, her mouth falling open in a silent gasp as a sprinkling of stars filled her sight. There was pain, but it was brief, and Erich comforted her with deep, penetrating kisses.
As her body adjusted to the feeling of his cock stretching her, going deeper, the pain she felt earlier was now replaced with a warm, pulsing feeling as he moved his length in and out, gently sawing her pussy. It was unlike anything she ever experienced, even when she pleasured herself at night time.
His tempo sped and his breath came in pants, and she found her own hips matching his thrusts until her release burst from her root center and cascades of pure, raw pleasure came in wave after wave after wave. When her senses stopped spinning, she watched the rapture on Erich’s face as he found his own release.
He peppered her face and neck with kisses, and his now receding cock slipped from her. It was the oddest, yet most titillating feeling.
Now up on his elbows, he stared down at her. His blue eyes were ethereal in the moonlight.
“I feel our time is about to end, my Princess. Don’t forget me. I live for the time we share together.”
Panic filled her at his mention they would now part again, and the achingly loneliness she felt when they were apart would return once again and consume her. After what they shared, how could it just fizzle and fade away? She clutched his forearms, and vehemently shook her head.
“You know I will be back for you, Princess.”
His gentle expression, the softness of his voice calmed her. When his lips covered hers once again, she dissolved from their paradise.
***
Princess woke again with the same intense loneliness she experienced when Erich was parted from her. A sadness filled her heart, as she stared at the ceiling above her and contemplated yet another day alone, another lonely night at the Swan Club.
At least she could lose herself in a few hours of fantasy at the club, soaring high above the audience on her flower draped swing.
When the door to her cell opened, she startled momentarily until she saw Valentina’s dark shock of hair. Now she felt only repulsion she would need to mask.
She swung her legs over the side of the bed, and quickly got to her feet to give Madam Valentina a small curtsy.
“Good morning, Bella.” The evil witch of a woman placed a cup of steaming tea on the night table next to the bed.
Princess nodded in return.
“I came to give you this, Bella.”
The woman held out a gold compact, encrusted with lilac gemstones. It was the most beautiful item she had received in a long
