Lakeside Liaison

Lucas gazed across the lake’s pale blue mirror-like surface while breathing in the chilly morning air. This early in the day most of the creatures that disturbed its surface would still be asleep, so seamless and peaceful it remained. Indeed the sun itself was only just rising across the horizon, banishing the fog and cold with its warming rays.

Satisfied he’d waited past sunrise proper, the mage fished a small wooden token out of his pocket. It was a simple thing he’d carved himself out of a piece of lake jetsam which bore nothing more than a simple swirl pattern as he was not a sculptor by any stretch of the imagination and a simple pattern was enough for its purpose.

He closed his eyes and allowed the image of the pattern to take residence in his mind, pushing out all other distractions and errant thoughts so there was nothing but the vortex. Under his fingers the piece of once-waterlogged detritus began to perspire. Beads of water seemed to well up from its surface and roll down its face before falling to that ground with a muted thap.

“Kali” mumbled the covenanter.

With that simple name, a sound like the distance roar of surf on some faraway beach burbled forth from nowhere and surrounded him. For a moment he forgot he was at the shore of a calm lake, instead he felt as though he was enveloped by the overwhelming presence of the ocean. The feeling, though potent, was fleeting and the din soon died with it leaving nothing but the occasional ephemeral dripping noise.

Lucas opened his eyes to find a small humanoid made of water standing on the shore. Well, standing in that it was balanced on what appeared to be a swept cone of water instead of legs. Indeed the rest of the body was about as defined as a children’s mud doll. It had a round head with light indentations where the eyes and mouth would be on a person. The chest seemed to undulate and flow with invisible currents while whip-like pseudo-pods swayed back and forth in time with the growing procession of waves that slid up along the shoreline.

“Good morning, Kali.” said Lucas as he leaned down to dent-level with the little elemental.

“Greetings Lucas,” it replied with what could be charitably referred to as a modulated burble. “How was your dormancy period?”

“It’s called sleep,” he sighed while pocketing the summoning token.

“Yes it is… difficult for us to remember something so… human.”

“Well you’re lucky you don’t need it. It’s a big time-waster.” Lucas placed his hand on the ground beckoning Kali who slithered up his hand, across his arm and settled on his shoulder. In spite of appearing to be made of water the elemental was more of a spirit than a collection of real liquid so all he felt as the watery stump moved across his bare skin was a fleeting wet sensation.

Kali wrapped a pair of tentacles around his head as if to stabilize itself while its mount rose to his feet. “What are we doing today?” the tiny spirit bubbled.

“Farm nearby needs a canal but the owner can’t afford to time and labor to make it himself. I thought it would be good practice for my abilities.”

“Will you receive more metal disks for this service?” The squishy companion inquired.

He ruffled his dark hair with a thin, gangly limb. “No, farmers usually pay in produce or occasionally livestock, although the prospect of dragging a pig home isn’t an attractive one.”

“What use are animals and plants to you?”

Lucas sighed. “Humans need to eat, Kali.”

The elemental shook its head. “Yes we remember now.”

“Well let’s get started then.”  the mage held his hands out, gesticulating wildly as he rattled off his plan. “I thought to make a new canal we could just drag a river there and let erosion create it for us. Would that be possible do you think?

“Easily, provided you’ve been doing the proper training exercises we instructed you.” A slight twitch of the shoulder it stood on did not escape the elemental’s notice.

“Yes, of course I have.” He lied.

Kali’s body made a rushing noise that somehow sounded accusatory but did not push the matter, instead adopting a commanding teacher’s candor. “Close your eyes and imagine the water flowing out to meet you. Do not move closer to the water, draw it out to meet you. Through our bond you are its master.”

The mage entered a similar trance he had adopted to summon Kali in the first place. He breathed in and out in time with the natural pulse of the shore and the elemental on his shoulder. He imagined the water flowing out of the lake to meet him in defiance of nature. When the water met the practitioner’s hand in his mind’s eye he felt a cold wetness on his hand and could not suppress opening his eyes to observe his accomplishment.

A tendril of water, just as it appeared in his mind, existed for all of a brief second before crashing to the ground in a wet thud.

“You have not been practicing.” Kali surged with irritation. He could see froth on the edges of the elemental’s body from the corner of his eye. “You are too impatient.”

Lucas glanced morosely at the now damp patch of earth. “You know,” he sighed laboriously. “I’ve been at this for almost half a year I thought I’d be better at it by now.”

“Out bond alone allows you to skip miles ahead of conventional practitioners but you still do not know how to control your energy properly. You release it wildly and without purpose. For the manipulation of water it requires a constant rhythm of power and ebb and flow. If that stream becomes erratic you lose control.” Kali smoothed out into the metered instructor’s tone it had before. “Try it once more but this time keep your eyes shut. Listen to nothing but the currents of our form and feel nothing but the wet touch of water against your hand.”

Taking the sage advice of his burbling teacher to heart, Lucas once again summoned the image of a tendril of water and once again synced his breathing with the sounds of Kali and finally felt the same touch of water against his hand.

“Turn around,” Instructed the elemental.

Lucas did so.

“The ground is sloped; take care and move forward.”

With tentative steps he did so, carefully making sure that each foothold was stable before shifting his weight to the extended limb. Above all else, however, he made sure that steady breathing and the damp sensation on his hand were always in the forefront of his mind.

After a score or so of steps the covenanter heard the calm, measured voice of his instructor. “Now open your eyes and calmly observe your work.”

He did so, noticing that the tendril of water in his mind was all but glued to his hand, reaching back all the way to the lake itself. A gentle pull gave the impression he was pulling a transparent cord of material out of the lake rather than a tube of water.

“Very good.” Kali observed. “Now go to this farm of yours, once we have reached it you may call more water through this connection and wear a furrow into the land.”

The practitioner was silent through most of the trip since he needed all his concentration to keep the link going. If he failed he would have to trudge all the way back to the lake and try again. Physically and mentally exhausted from the first attempt; it was unlikely that he would succeed with a second.

This wasn’t as easy as Kali said it would be, thought Lucas with the few free thoughts he could spare.

Eventually he made it to the farm after a few close misses involving stealthy rocks and an infuriatingly inquisitive squirrel. Ignoring the slack-jawed farmhands gawking at the fantastic display of a man leading a river by the hand, he carefully made his way to the marker that indicated the end of the planned canal, taking extra care as his concentration was starting to waver. He placed the stream of water down onto the dirt and imagined his own exhausted body opening up like a yawning chasm that drew liquid through the stream.

“The water obeys you. You are its master.” Kali whispered into his ear.

The thin cord of water gradually fattened until it engulfed his hand. Noisily the sounds of a babbling brook filled the air and a surge of water followed the line like a puddle would move along a crack in the floor. The torrent of water shot past Lucas, soaking half of him as he couldn’t move before the flow encountered his hand. Without a guide it continued in a straight line before following the natural curves of the earth and the almost imperceptible incline all natural rivers follow.

He shook the excess water off him, almost dislodging his instructor along with it who managed to cling to his shoulder with one franticly twisting pseudo-pod. When he lifted his head he saw the farmhands all clapping at him with wide eyes and open gap-toothed mouths. It was only natural. When the most interesting thing that happens to a man is finding an unusually shiny rock while tending the fields, this display of raw magical power nearly drove them catatonic.

A man so large and dense he could be best described in geological terms appeared out of nowhere, locked an arm around Lucas and lifted him sputtering off the ground.

“Ah, thanks! You magical bastard! That would have taken days with my lads but you did it in one morning!” He noticed Kali dangling off his victim’s back, unable to adjust to the violent movements the farm giant was causing. ”And I guess this is your little helper! Isn’t it?”

“Y-yes, Mr. Grant.” Lucas managed to spit out. Between his mental exhaustion and the attentions of the overenthusiastic farmer he couldn’t get his bearings.

“Aww that’s cute, it is.” He tried to lift the exasperated elemental up but his hands passed right through it. If he was surprised, not a bit of it showed up on his face. He was the sort of man who could regard a volcanic explosion with a good natured laugh so the lack of shock wasn’t terribly out of character.

“I’ll get your payment.” He hailed his closest worker. “Hey Jimmy! Get our friend here a slab of smoked ham and one of the bottles of whiskey!” Grant turned back to Lucas. “You like whiskey right?”

“Yeah.” He hadn’t expected to receive drink as payment. Normally such things were kept by the distillers themselves or sold to taverns. However the idea of a large piece of meat sat well with him. He wasn’t much of a hunter and the most he could do with control over water was fish.

Lucas hated fish.

The absent farmhand returned with a good natured grin carrying a bundle wrapped in straw and an opaque brown bottle. “We’d normally throw a fit about losing one of these,” he raised the hand that held that bottle. “But that was some show, man.”

The hero of the hour didn’t usually think himself above accepting praise and of course today was no exception. He accepted the bundle and bottle with a self-satisfied smirk. “It’s no trouble for me.”

“No trouble he says,” grumbled a voice on his back. Kali flowed up onto his shoulder, returning to its perch.

The mage gave his detractor a quick glare and returned to his grateful employers. “If that’s all, I’ll take my leave now. You know where to find me if you need anything else.”

“Aye we do,” said Grant who grabbed his free hand in granite vice and gave it a jolly crush.

The trip back to the lake was more pleasant when Lucas didn’t need to keep absolute concentration and could instead utilize the beaten path instead of the untamed underbrush he had dragged the water through. Still, he liked to cross paths with the new stream, a physical indication of his growing magical prowess.

Along the way they sorted out unplanned deviations in the flow. Slight applications of will deepened the canal where the flow was in danger of spilling out randomly. It was a simple touch up to make sure the job was done right. Lucas did not relish the idea of getting an angry visit from Grant.

Looking at his reward, he came about a bit peckish. He partially unwrapped the chunk of ham and gave it an experimental nibble. It was pretty good, though a bit over salted in his opinion.

“Was that a good reward?” inquired Kali once he had swallowed.

“Better than usual,” replied Lucas, who replaced its wrapping.

“What was the other item you received? The brown bottle.”

He held up the musty flask to Kali’s undulating form. “Grant said it was whiskey but you can never tell with farm distilleries. It’s whatever they want to call it, made out of whatever they had lying around; hopefully potatoes or grain. I suppose you don’t know much about this sort of thing since I’ve never taken liquor with me when I came to visit you.”

“Liquor is a poison, the water in that bottle is sad” Kali said solemnly before reaching out for the glassware with one tendril. “But do not worry we can fix that.”

“Ah!” Lucas jerked his bottle-clenching hand away from the wriggling tentacle. “No! It’s supposed to be like this, don’t clean it up.” He uncorked the bottle and gave it a quick sniff to make sure everything was in order. Satisfied, though rendered momentarily breathless by the biting fumes, he replaced to stopper once more. “And what do you mean sad? How can water be sad?”

“It is corrupted by the presence of this ‘liquor.’ It’s not pure as water was meant to be.”

Lucas rubbed the back of his head. “I suppose it’s difficult for a water spirit to understand the appeal of a little recreational poison.”

“You would be correct.”

Eventually Lucas and Kali reached the lake again though it was no longer the seamless mirror it had been in the morning.  Now it was painted with a light orange color as the sun sank to the other end of the sky while choppy dark lines gave it a wrinkled texture. Lucas was honestly surprised, he didn’t realize today’s job had taken as long as it did but with most of said day being eaten by bouts of intense concentration he supposed it was only natural the passage of time would escape his notice.

“I guess that’s all for today.”

Kali churned but didn’t say anything.

“So how did I do?” he muttered staring at his feet. “I mean really how?”

“You… performed well. You have made great strides since we initially forged this covenant though you still lack control. I still think it would be better if you stayed here constantly. The ever-present ebb and flow of the lake is the greatest teacher for proper control of water.”

“Nah, I can’t do that. My straw mattress may not be kingly, but I can’t do without a good night sleep on proper bed.” Lucas kicked the ground, a little embarrassed by this declaration.

“Nevertheless it would help you.” Kali insisted.

“But I am getting better about it, right?” asked Lucas in earnest as he turned to his teacher.

It paused for a moment, bubbling with thought. “Yes, given years of training you should make a fine water covenanter. The things I’ve taught you will become easier and easier until you will do them almost unconsciously. Of course,” it explained rather pointedly, “If you keep ignoring you exercises…”

Lucas held out a placating hand to steady the surging spirit, “I got it, don’t worry.” He looked out over the horizon as the sun continued its rapid decent. “I should get going before it’s too dark to see. See you tomorrow, Kali.”

“Goodnight, Lucas.”

-----

Kali’s consciousness ebbed and flowed freely in the lake. With so much water around it could abandon the strain of keeping a spirit body coherent and become one with the elements it was born from. It normally enjoyed the feeling of absolute freedom; however this night the waters were too turbulent. The detritus and particulates that normally settled to the bottom roiled and churned in the massive cauldron.

It couldn’t settle down for some reason. Thoughts swam through it; odd thoughts it had been having recently regarding Lucas. He was important to Kali; as its covenanter he provided it with the power necessary to become more than a simple, barely conscious amalgam of natural magical energies.

But Kali had seen how humans who enter in similar bonds expressed their commitment to one another, the lake being a popular spot for romantic or clandestine liaisons. Some part of it wanted to do the same with Lucas, to hold him and form a physical bond of some kind, and the more energy it received the stronger the connection and the attraction to him became. However it had no body to act on neither of these desires nor the instincts to guide it. He was close yet so far away.

So it languished in its watery torment.

Late at night, when the moon rose to its zenith, Kali gradually became aware of a presence bleeding into the lake. Even with the waters as muddy and restless as they were, it could see there was a trail of a contaminant of sorts. It wasn’t like the alcohol from earlier that day, the liquid in that bottle was murky and stained by poison but this odd material shimmered with glints of purple. Kali drew closer to one of the strands of energy which writhed and twisted with no regard for the currents of the water it was suspended in. Looping and curling it appeared to have a life of its own.

Tentatively, Kali allowed its consciousness to touch it. It felt familiar like the power it received from Lucas, yet fundamentally different. The energy from its covenanter made the elemental feel content and energized, however this nebulous corruption made it feel a yawning hunger for something it could not properly identify.

Kali rationalized this as another pollutant to the lake and attempted to use what power its meager magical ability to erase the contamination. Focusing its power, it tried to purify the water permeated with the corrupting influence but was shocked to find that there was no effect. The writhing tentacles continued to spread, unimpeded by its efforts. The guardian of the lake repeated its spell numerous times before giving up the fruitless task. Instead it followed the corruption upstream to find out what it was and perhaps stem the polluting tide.

It wasn’t long before the inquisitive spirit found the source.

A nearby waterfall, which was the source of most of the lake’s water, roared with the thunder of millions of gallons crashing into the river below. Large stone slabs, undoubtedly fragments of the cliff above, dotted the basin like tiny islands in a swirling maelstrom. However there existed a certain arrangements of rocks that served as a shelter from the fast moving water while still retaining a small current that formed a gentle vortex within the hollow.

Lounging in this whirlpool was the strangest person that Kali ever saw.

In as much as Kali knew about humans, it knew most of them did not possess a pair of curling ram’s horns, glassy black bat wings and a whip-like spade-tipped tail, however it may have been willing to accept this deviation from the norm had it not been for the fact that this woman seemed to ooze the corrupting energy that was leaking into the river and flowing down into the lake.

Kali never encountered anything like this woman before and had no idea of how to proceed. Being an unaccompanied elemental, it had no power over the material world besides the waters it merged with; though even that power seemed to be failing it now. With no other options and an instinctual desire to halt the corruption guiding its actions, the little elemental did the only thing it could do.

Kali crawled out of the water on top of the rocks not a foot away from the mysterious woman’s head. “Excuse me, miss?” it burbled as loud as it could over the waterfall’s ever-present cacophonous roar.

The oddity rolled one eye open and glanced at Kali, calmly assessing the watery humanoid that was speaking to her.

“We would appreciate it if you could stop letting this energy into the water. It’s polluting our home downriver and we cannot seem to clean it ourselves!” Kali had to be nice, with no power over the physical and Lucas likely dormant it couldn’t do anything to affect the material world. The only power afforded to the little spirit was the power of words.

Her substantial bust rose and fell with a laborious sigh, “I can’t do anything about it.”

“Then could you get out of the water?”

“Would you deny a woman her bath?” she leveled an unnerving, humorless gaze at the quivering Kali.

Fearful, it slid backwards. “Well… no. But please finish up quickly!”

In response to the guardian's pleas, the winged human seemed to shimmer and flash while Kali felt the steady stream of corruption surge as though a dam that held the deluge back had burst.

“Stop! Stop that right now!” The water spirit screamed in desperate protest.

“Oh?” a toothy grin stretched across her face. “Looks like this little water elemental has some fire in her!” Without warning the woman’s spade tail shot out of the water and wrapped around Kali’s squishy form, constricting it like a leathery snake.

To Kali’s immense surprise, the wiry appendage held it. Normally physical matter phased through it but no matter how it struggled the vice grip of her coils prevented Kali from moving. It tried to merge back with the thin layer of water on the rocks it stood on but again there was nothing the frightened elemental could do. It was as if the woman was holding onto her spirit rather than her body and the energies she extended into the water began to pour directly into its mind.

“Why don’t you make a contract with me?” she offered, sliding a long-nailed finger across her captive’s form. “We could have so much fun together.”

“But,” bubbled Kali. “We already have a covenant!”

“Really?” Its captor pouted with full red lips for a brief moment before they melted into a sultry smile. “And you serve as you are now? A tiny little thing like you? With all the power you can provide I bet your covenanter has problems with basic spells.”

“He…” Kali stumbled. “He’s doing just fine!”

The succubus’ face lit up as she clasped her hands together, joyfully. “Oh and it’s a man too? Well this simply will not do!”

The encircled elemental felt the power that emanated from the smooth leathery tail gradually increase in potency until the tip of the jet black appendage began to glow with a brilliant purple light Kali felt hot, but not in the way a shallow puddle of water would in the blistering midday sun. Rather, it was a metaphysical heat that set fire to its mind and caused its body to froth and steam with barely contained turmoil. It became difficult for Kali to hold its consciousness together as the polluting energy twisted its mind and warped its form.

“S-stop… please…”

“Stop?” echoed the monster in a baffled tone. “Why? This is a kindness. When I’m done with you, you’ll be able to help your covenanter in ways you’ve never considered. You want that don’t you? To help this man?”

“We… I do, but...” it trailed off, while a jolt of demonic energy sent a shock of pleasure into the core of its being. Elementals did not normally feel things like pleasure and the overwhelming power of this new-found sensation reduced it, no, reduced Her to a quivering mass.

The creature plucked Kali off the rock and cradled the tumultuous spirit in soft, warm hands. “Well I know a wonderful way to help him. It’s greatest feeling in this world. I’ll use my power to shape you, sculpt you for this purpose. When I’m done you will have everything you need to serve your master.”

“Really?” Kali moaned in a slightly more feminine tone, as her body lengthened and grew. “My… master?”

The succubus laughed musically. “Yes, your master.” She dipped Kali’s growing form into the basin, marveling as liquid boiled and leapt out, filling her spirit body’s mold with solidified water. “You love your master, don’t you?” she cooed softly to the twisting form of her new progeny.

“Yes…” she replied weakly.

“You want me to turn you, give you form, give you a body so you can serve the one you love. You want it so bad you can hardly stand it. I can give it to you but there’s one simple thing I need before I can do it. It’s very easy…”

The lusty woman’s offer was so attractive to Kali’s half-formed ears.

“All you have to do is beg for it.”

The pleasure of being reshaped while her mind was assaulted by the lascivious power became too much for her to bear. “Yes! Yes, I love him!” she cried desperately. “Help me, mistress! Help me love him with everything I am! With everything I will be!”

“Don’t worry, little undine.” She breathed while taking direct control of Kali’s wild transformation.

“I will.”

-----

The prospect of a new day felt utterly alien to Lucas’s formerly drink-addled brain. The aggressively bright sunlight burned his eyes and stoked the flames of his inner torment. It had been a long time since he had any quantity of alcohol and Grant’s bottle of god-knows-what tasted like liquid fire and may have been slightly explosive. Still, he stomped his way to the lake anyway. He owed an explanation to Kali even if he wouldn’t be able to perform any feats of concentration, his head pounding as it was.

The first thing Lucas noticed when the lake streamed into view was a large amount of detritus on it shores. Logs that looked as though they had sat on the bottom of the lake for years lay in beds of discarded branches and assorted decomposing vegetation. It was as if someone had removed all the offensive pieces of matter from the water in an attempt to purify it, unconcerned with the beach’s transformation into a compost heap.

The lake itself, however, shimmered and sparkled like a flawless sapphire. Rather than a muted greenish blue as it usually appeared, the water was crystal clear in the shallows and opened up into a rich royal blue. The color was so brilliant that it seemed almost unreal and so deep it gave the impression of an endless, hungry void.

The abrupt change was jarring and Lucas, though mentally enfeebled, wasted no time in retrieving his covenanter’s token, attempting to summon Kali for an explanation. The ritual went as it always did. He shut out all distractions and focused on the design carved into the wood of the focus. However the token did not moisten, there was no distant roar of metaphysical oceans and there was no Kali.

Lucas’s stomach did a backflip, which only served to make him feel worse. Kali had never before failed to respond to his call! That plus the unusual state of the lake gave him reason to fear that something had happened to his partner. Perhaps his mind was in worse shape than he had thought.

Kali was right, he admitted, alcohol is a poison.

Still, he tried again. Nothing came of it this time either. Lucas did not feel as though the link had been broken; but admittedly, he did not know what he would have felt had their covenant been severed. In an attempt to test whether or not he still had his elemental control he tried the simplest of acts, the very first one he had been taught: a water spout. Lucas moved his entire arm, starting slowly with his shoulder and accelerating with each joint as he allowed a surge of power to race down his arm, ending the gesture with a punctuated flick of his index finger.

Rather than the small spurt of liquid he had been accustomed to, the surface of the lake exploded into a giant column of water that shot into the sky and crashed back down, creating a miniature tidal wave that slammed into the dregs on the shore as well as Lucas himself.

Though initially glad that his covenant was still active, the practitioner was profoundly disturbed and quite thoroughly soaked. That sort of power should have been outside of his abilities even if he was in peak physical and mental form and not the hung-over wreck he was. As Lucas reasoned out what he should do next he watched the debris he had unwittingly washed back into the lake float away. Elementals could hide freely in the matter they were composed of, so if for some reason Kali did not want to be found, he would have no chance of finding her.

As Lucas pondered this dilemma, sweet, dulcet tones fluted out from across the lake, keeping time with the gentle pulse at the lake’s shores as though they were a natural metronome. The enchanting music flowed through his mind, gathering the self-inflicted malaise from his head and carrying it off into the ether. Now mercifully free of his mental burden, Lucas looked around for the source of the restorative melody.

The first thing he noticed, however, was the strange behavior of the debris that had been washed back into the lake. As though propelled by an unseen current, they ebbed and flowed closer and closer to the shore eventually rising from the water entirely and coming to rest once more on the cluttered beach.

Upon tearing his gaze away from the baffling behavior of garbage, Lucas noticed a humanoid form gliding across the lake’s surface. Delicate sheets of water splayed out from the bottom of the figure as it streamed towards him meandering from side to side in lazy curves. Coupled with the music that seemed to approach along with the mysterious sight, it was a very impressive display.

An inhuman display.

Lucas saw why; though the form of the dancer was basically human and quite obviously female, the substance which made up that body was almost as clear and fluid as the water it skated upon. Stripes of cyan, the only true color she possessed, wrapped around her body and could be seen through it as though they were solid strips of waterlogged cloth. The light color of her markings contrasted beautifully with the tinge of deep blue that tinted the rest of her transparent water-flesh.

As far as he could tell she wore a blissful expression, eyes closed, with the music that cleansed Lucas’s mind flowing over an open pair of juicy lips. Dark waterfall streams of hair fell down plush cheeks, curving around her in a gentle vortex and parted by twin fin-like ears that extended perpendicular to her head. Her body was lithe, with contours that flowed gracefully across her watery form. Full voluminous breasts hung elastically off her chest, possessing an almost preternatural springiness in spite of their size while below her body narrowed pleasingly into a thin waist before splaying out into shapely callipygian hips. Not an inch of her meticulously sculpted body neglected to do its best to send instincts surging to the front of her observer’s mind or light a fire in his loins.

She seemed entranced; streaming in a tight circle just offshore in order to corral what trash had not marched out of the lake in a miniature vortex.

This close to the breathtaking vision of mythical beauty, Lucas felt a growing dampness in his trousers which snapped his attention away from the surreal display in front of him. He quickly fished into his pocket to find the source of the water and retrieved his covenanter token. The wooden focus didn’t simply have a coating of condensation as it usually did when it was used. Instead, it spewed water forth of its own volition, like the hull of a leaking ship and the flow showed no signs of stopping; rather it seemed to steadily increase the longer he held it.

It can’t be… thought Lucas disbelievingly.

The suddenly familiar woman sighed with contentment as the last of the dregs washed up on the shore, leaving the lake once again as clean and pure as the creature itself.

“Kali?” ventured Lucas, still unable to believe what he was seeing.

At the sound of his voice, the woman’s eyes, which somehow gave the impression of being darker than the surrounding water-flesh, snapped open. She stared at him for a few moments, mouth frozen in mid-note before the undine’s lips curled up in the happiest expression Lucas was likely to ever see. Without ceremony or even warning, she launched herself from the water’s edge with an overjoyed “Master!” and tackled him to the ground.

When Lucas’s world ceased spinning, he found himself straddled by the shapely transparent contours of the now grown Kali. Though she seemed solid enough, and the pressure she exerted on him was very real, the water that made up her body seemed to bleed into his clothing where it contacted him.

“Master look!” she held her hand out in front of Lucas’s face, showing him the delicate curves of her fingers before using them to stroke his face. They felt more or less like a normal humans except impossibly smooth and very wet. “I have a body now!” she shouted with ecstatic glee. “A real one!”

Pinned down by a beautiful and quite obviously naked female, particularly one made of water, wasn’t a situation that Lucas was capable of dealing with in a rational manner, especially not when the caress of her digits left a puddle on his face that seemed to warm his skin and put strange ideas into his head. He gulped; her breasts, unfettered by clothing, hung tantalizingly in front of his face.

“What… happened to you?” he managed.

The smile never left Kali’s face. “I don’t know. I think I managed to sleep last night because I ‘woke up’ this morning and I had this form.” Bewilderment colored her speech. “Is this what sleep does, Master?”

“No it’s not. What do you mean you slept? You’re an elemental… I think. You have difficulty remembering the word sleep in the first place, let alone actually doing it.” The wet patches of clothing steadily crept forward, somehow making Lucas even more uncomfortable though he wouldn’t have thought it was possible. “Do you think you could get off me?” he muttered out of the corner of his mouth.

Realization dawned on Kali’s face and she backed off of him in a simple, fluid motion. “Sorry, master I guess I’m just used to being on top of you,” she said without a hint of double entendre.

Lucas rose to his feet, sighing as he removed his now waterlogged shirt and pants, laying them on a nearby sun bleached rock while taking a moment to calm down before facing her again. “It’s fine, I guess. I’m more worried about this transformation of yours.”

“Worried? Why? It’s it wonderful! Look me! Look at the lake!” She flung her arms out, gesturing to the pristine expanse behind her. “Before all I could do was cleanse the water but now I can move all the ugly filth that was always polluting it!”

“What about the shore?” Lucas pointed at the pile of detritus.

He might as well have been asking about the state of political affairs in the region for all the recognition she showed. “I don’t understand; why would I care about the state of the earth? It’s not my domain.”

Lucas sighed laboriously, he wasn’t getting anywhere, it was like speaking to a whole new person. Although she really was, wasn’t she? No longer a little water spirit she’d somehow acquired an achingly feminine form. Again lascivious thoughts surged through his mind but he managed to silence them before his arousal became embarrassingly obvious.

“Never mind, tell me what happened to my magic? How did I go from struggling to do the river trick from yesterday to creating geysers without proper focus?”

Kali adopted a self-satisfied smirk. “That was me.”

“What?”

“Before, when I was an impotent blob, our covenant merely linked you to the elements: allowing you to use your own energy to manipulate water. Now that I have power of my own I can channel the power straight into you.”

“But why? Why do you have power now?”

“So much complaining,” steamed Kali, who actually was steaming as tiny bubbles rose from within her and broke at the top of her head releasing a misty vapor. “Isn’t this good? You wanted to get stronger and I wanted a real body so I could…” her brows knitted together as the words fell off her lips.

“So you could…?” echoed Lucas.

“I… I’m not sure. I wanted to do something I just can’t remember.” She shook her head quickly, her waterfall hair whipping droplets of water which splashed every which way. “Whatever it’s not important. Why don’t you use more of your newfound abilities?” Kali smiled in earnest. “I think you’ll be so pleased at how strong you are now you’ll stop with all these whys.”

Lucas, though irritated she hadn’t really answered any of his questions, did want to see how proficient he was now. To go from struggling with basic concepts to mastery of water sounded very attractive. He resolved to start with something easy so he began preparations for something he’d always wanted to do, walk on water. Only when he tried to go through the usual meditation he felt Kali’s wet hand grasp his and yank him forward.

When Lucas opened his eyes he saw he was standing on the crystalline surface of the lake, a scattering of rocks and one very confused fish lay below him. He tested his footing with heavier and heavier steps. Eventually convinced he would fall through he turned to Kali who was still grasping his hand.

“You don’t need to focus like that anymore, just make your intentions known and I’ll do the rest.”

“So I’m not really doing any of this now? That seems like cheating.” He replied dubiously.

“Not really, you’re still expending energy, it just goes to me.” A confused look flashed across her for a brief moment.

“What, so I’m just a battery?”

“No, no.” Kali extended placating hands. “Think of me as a tool for your use.”

“For my use?” Lucas choked while shaking free of her grasp, finding the wording to be less than ideal. He looked at Kali’s dewy curves that flowed in and out resolving into a painfully arousing hourglass shape. Brief flickers of what he really wanted to use her for dashed through his head before he knew what happened.

“What’s wrong?”

“Nothing, never mind.” Lucas turned away from her and leaned over, his hands on his thighs.

Kali took note of his strange behavior, how his gaze roamed across her body when he thought she wasn’t looking and his unwillingness to look her in the eyes when he spoke. She started to feel uneasy, was this new body really upsetting him that much? “Go ahead, try something big.” said Kali, desperate to shift his focus to something else.

“Alright, alright.” Like before, Lucas willed a waterspout to form from the lake, this time his gesture was quick and thoughtless instead of slow and measured. The surface of the water exploded skyward and in spite of the terrible din it caused, he heard a surprised yelp coming from Kali. She had her hand covering her mouth, though because it was transparent, he could still see the look of embarrassment on her face.

“Is something wrong?” he asked innocently as he kept the geyser going with a steady application of will.

“I was just surprised,” panted Kali, who smiled again. She gazed at the water jet and nodded appreciatively. “Pretty good, right?”

“It’s okay,” said Lucas who quickly grew bored with the simple vertical column of water. “But how about this?”

The geyser’s cap closed up as the stream of water no longer surged upwards but instead bulged and rippled with internalized currents. Ignoring the natural laws which failed to bind it, the stream twisted and writhed as though it was alive. Knotting and flowing like an incorporeal serpent subservient to the ephemeral whims of its master’s consciousness. Engrossed as he was in flexing his magical muscle, Lucas failed to notice Kali quivering ever so slightly.

There it was again. She had wondered what caused such a shocking sensation moments ago when her covenanter manipulated to water and now she knew. It was Lucas’s mind touching hers and taking control over her abilities. The corners of her mouth turned up in an expression of overwhelming pleasure. Her hands roamed across her transparent body, grabbing, kneading, questing while the roar of rushing water hid her quiet moans. Kali was being used, her mind and power pulled by invisible strings that tugged at her every which way.

And she loved every second of it.

She fell to her knees, as internal currents twisted and bucked within her, appearing, merging, dissolving constantly roiling with a turmoil that consumed Kali’s entire being. They seemed to be the most animate near the surface of her breasts and the bottom of her pelvis. Investigating her watery globes with shaking fingers, she gave them an experimental prod. While they did not break the surface tension on their own, the pressure from her digits was enough to interfere with the passage of water beneath, deviating the flow and sending it spiraling through her extremities and  carrying pleasurable sensations all the while.

The molesting elemental did everything she could to get the feelings to continue, grasping at her chest with feverish moans she had become a prisoner to the sensations of her new body. However because of her attentions, the pleasing currents shifted from her bosom, corkscrewed wildly, and eventually re-centered between her legs.

Wasting no time, she thrust her hands downward, kneading and caressing her mound with shocking fervor only to find to her immense frustration that the same pleasurable sensation that escaped  her hid deeper within her body and could not be reached on the surface. Kali tried fruitlessly to pierce her water-skin but even though she was nothing more than animate liquid, her hands couldn’t penetrate her body’s barrier. It was so maddeningly close.

Just a little more... it’s right there! She screamed in her head.

But even as she tried harder and harder to pry into herself a deep exhaustion began slowing her movements. She could feel it, while Lucas used her power to perform feats he provided none of his own energy to keep her going. He took and took, leaving her with nothing but a gaping, hungry emptiness.

Kali’s eyes rolled over to her covenanter, still blissfully unaware of what he was doing to her as he was enraptured with the display of power that he was now afforded. Through elemental sight she could see his power, his spirit energy, sparking and flaring brighter and brighter; a searing white flame within him that looked so… so…

Delicious.

Kali licked her lips with a crystalline tongue, deciding if he wouldn’t hold up his end of the covenant then she would have to take it by force. Summoning what little strength remained hers she gathered water beneath her legs, compressing it tighter and tighter until she could sustain it no more and the pent up forces exploded beneath the desperate undine. She launched at her master like a missile, tackling him to the surface of the lake with a splashing thud.

The lapse in concentration caused by Kali’s impact against his back forced Lucas to lose control of the serpentine flow of water he held aloft. It lost cohesion and crashed back into the rest of the water with a roar, sending a procession of giant waves that surged toward the pair. However, suspended on top of the water as they were, it lifted their footing and rolled them violently across the lake.

Lucas groaned and clutched his head, he had no idea what happened. Supporting himself against the wild undulations of the water with an outstretched hand, he rose upright and looked around him, noticing that Kali had been flung several meters away. She sat on her side simply staring at him with an expression he couldn’t make out at this distance.

Much to his surprise, she started to sink into the water but as her body sunk deeper it became apparent she wasn’t visible past the water line, her curves flattened as she melted into the lake.

“Kali?” Lucas called out weakly while trying to stand up. Unfortunately, his head began to spin and he had to sit back down, eyes shut, hanging his head to keep the world from turning.

When he opened his eyes again he came face to face with his undine, her shimmering gaze peering out at him from the surface of the water. He tumbled backwards, startled by the sudden appearance of her face and nothing else.

He watched as her head popped up out of the water, followed shortly by a single outstretched hand which flexed as the shimmering goddess pulled the rest of her own shapely liquid body out of the lake. She rose to her feet and swayed over to Lucas, leaning over until she was eye-level with his dumbfounded face.

Kali could feel something within rattle and break free from deep inside her transformed consciousness. Instincts or perhaps memory filled her mind; images of men and women in the throes of ecstasy and the promise of sweet, sweet spirit energy replenishing what she had lost in the most wonderful way possible. She roughly shoved him backwards and collapsed on top of his invitingly prone body, unwilling or unable to go on any longer.

“What are you do-“ Lucas tried to say before she silenced him with a deep open kiss. He could feel her oil-smooth tongue worm its way into his mouth, extending far longer than a normal woman’s and much to his shock, it seemed to bleed or perspire crisp water into his mouth. It wasn’t long before the downpour caused his cheeks to bulge under the strain of the liquid and he tried to force it back to Kali or at least break of the kiss but it was no use, the water refused to leave his mouth as her arms prevented him from moving his head.

Reluctantly, before the pressure would force it down his throat anyway, he painfully gulped the mouthful down, wincing as the discomfort it caused crashed down into his stomach and seemed to surge through his body. However when it reached his fingertips the discomfort quickly resolved into a hot sensation that made his skin flush pink.

Lucas felt queasy as Kali drew back and the feeling intensified when he realized what he swallowed wasn’t formless water; it was her long amorphous tongue. As soon as the sickening appendage was free of his mouth he coughed and heaved violently more from discomfort than desire to vomit.

Kali had no idea why she did that, why it felt so good to kiss him, to fill his mouth with her and violate him the way she did and why she imparted the few remaining dregs of her power into the very core of his body. All she knew is it felt wonderful and she longed for him to fill her just as she had him. The desire for him to penetrate her where her internal currents were most active drove her mad.

Lucas theatrically sputtered what be believed to be the last bits of offending water and glared at Kali with a mixture of irritation and bafflement. “What the hell was that for?” he barked.

“Shut up.” Kali’s muttered as her eyes roamed across his body, eventually settling at his underwear; the only piece of clothing he kept on after her initial pounce soaked everything else he wore. They were tented now, something strained against the thin fabric and whatever it was held Kali’s attention.

“What’s wrong with you?” He stammered, now more confused and fearful than angry.

“I said shut up!” she shouted madly. “You refuse to give me the power you’re bound to by our covenant!” The water that surrounded the pair began to roll and slap into them.

“I thought I was! I never had to make an effort to do it before now!”

“No! You left me with nothing!” The lake’s surface exploded in time with her own angered raving.  “You held my power, my soul, in your hands and you rung it out like a mangy dish rag!” she ripped the soaked wool of his underwear down his legs, allowing his member to stand straight up. Her eyes lit up at the sight of it, all her anger melted away just as quickly as it had come. In her mind’s eye it shone with the white flames of his vitality as the licking tendrils of fire seemed to coil and wrap around the length of his penis. Deep inside Kali’s transformed mind a lusty roar screamed to her that this was it, what she needed so badly.

She took his length in her glassy hands, poking and prodding at the shaft while running the tips of her fingers around the tip, giggling as it twitched and grew bigger under her smooth caresses. She enjoyed the feeling of the spiritual flame wrapping around her digits, sighing with pleasure as it penetrated her watery body, replenished a small amount of spent energy and whetted her supernatural appetite.

Lucas groaned, “Why are you doing this?”

Kali looked up at him with a clear lusty smile, allowing his fully erect cock to slide against her inhumanly soft cheek as she cupped his balls with on hand and continued stroking his glans with the other. “Just collecting my dues,” she replied hotly, giving his sack a gentle squeeze. “It’s all in here, I can see it smoldering deep inside you.” She clicked disapprovingly, “It’s not right to keep something so wonderful to yourself.”

Lucas gagged; with one smooth and unbearably slow motion she ran her tongue up from the base of his shaft to the very tip, replacing her caresses with the oily smooth lashes of the wonderful organ that had disgusted him not moment prior. She had barely begun to tease him and already he was driven half mad by her subdued yet insistent techniques. “How… do you know how to do this?” he managed between shaking breaths.

“It flows into me as you moan and writhe, what to do to you. Every time you gasp it just makes me so…” she trialed off when her gaze came to rest on the tip of his dick. A small pool of precum began to dribble and roll down his length. Slowly, with shaking hands, she grabbed his waist, bringing her lips mere millimeters from the collection of transparent fluid and giving it a tentative taste. Internal currents surged to her mouth, snatching the minute amount of liquid from her mouth and carrying it all through her body. It was pure spirit, the kind she had never received physically and the rush of power and pleasure she felt as it touched everywhere from the tips of her fingers to the roiling mass of her pelvis was overwhelming.

Lucas stared at Kali as she appeared to be enraptured by his dick, gazing down lovingly as she licked and sucked the barest tip, unwilling to allow him to pass any further than a centimeter or so into her mouth. Though his thinking mind didn’t realize it, his body automatically tried to buck his hips upward into her mouth’s waiting embrace but she held him down with deceptively heavy hands that made him feel like he was glued to the water he lay upon. She continued her slight caresses, refusing, either by design or instinct, to allow the maddening sensations to build into anything and when his cock finally popped free of her moist lips Lucas couldn’t stifle a quite “Damnit…”

Kali laughed melodiously, removing her hands from his hips and crawling up his chest until her shimmering breasts came to rest on both sides of his dick. The cool fleshy feeling that engulfed his member sent shivers through the man’s body and he couldn’t help but twitch as the sensation shot down his spine. She slapped both her elbows onto his chest and cradled her head with upturned hands, staring at him dreamily. “You know…” she spoke with feigned innocence. “I’m not sure what to do now…”

Grinding his teeth, Lucas tried to stifle the myriad of sexual favors that all scrambled to escape his lips. He objected to being used like this but at the same time his painfully erect penis wasn’t allowed to soften, suspended between her large formless breasts that seemed to swell slightly before his eyes. Much to his shock he could now feel a gentle rolling pressure slide against him as her currents reoriented to add additional size to her ever expanding globes. He shouldn’t, this wasn’t right, but by gods did it feel amazing.

Lucas felt his face flush as he muttered, “Your breasts…”

“My breasts? What about them? Mock confusion danced across Kali’s face which only made him more ashamed of what he was about to ask.

“Use your breasts.” He groaned as another current tickled against him.

“Ahh,” she purred, clasping her hands against his chest. “What a good idea, Master.” Kali allowed her lower body to sink back into the lake between his legs. Once her chest was upright, her ripe breasts were able to flow onto Lucas’s crotch and engulf his dick so that only the head stuck up out of the transparent mounds of waterflesh. She let a quiet moan roll across her lips as his dick twitched within her, goaded by the natural pulses of her body. “But what now? Help your obedient undine, Master.”

“Rub them against it.” He muttered

“I’m sorry this is all very human and I don’t quite understand… what do you want me to do?” She flicked her tongue out against his exposed glans causing Lucas to instinctively buck upward and slide his dick against the silky contours of her chest eliciting a strangled cry from his lust wracked body. She giggled again. “Ah, now I understand.” her eyelids slid down into a sultry gaze. “You want me to slide my full tits against the throbbing length of your cock, to tease you with my body until you can’t bear it anymore and cum all over my voluptuous body.” She moaned, occasionally sucking on the tip of her index finger as she described in perfect detail what Lucas had been screaming for her to do inside his own conflicted mind.

“Yes!” He shouted, not caring how ridiculous he may have looked. “Yes damnit!”

Kali grasped the bottom of her sizable chest, cooing as the watery flesh spilled out between her fingers, and began rubbing her breasts against his dick, moaning softly as the lashes of spiritual flame licked across her body. She lapped another pool of precum that had once more dribbled out of her master’s penis and languished in the pleasing sensations the liquid caused as it raced around inside her.

Lucas watched in silent awe at the overwhelmingly sensual display, the occasional jolt of pleasure as her tongue once more lavished his head causing him to slap back against the water. Once he sat up again he saw that the domineering undine became more and more enraptured by her own breasts. She grasped them with clawed fingers even as she continued to roll them up and down against him. Much to his amazement he saw the tips of her once formless breasts begin to sharpen to a point. Cute glassy nipples popped out of her tits and he couldn’t resist the urge to touch them.

Kali yelped as he ran a finger around the extended nipple, his best guess on where her areola would be. Her skin felt oilier now, as though his slight emanations previously has been absorbed and mimicked by her body and that slick feeling only aided the movements of his fingers as they slide across the surface of her breasts. She started panting heavily but kept working on Lucas’s own dick with a single minded determination and with a show of inhuman flexibility she sucked the head of his cock into her mouth licking it madly with her tongue just as she continued to work on his shaft with her chest.

The twin sensations of her cool breasts and her sliding tongue were too much to bear and with what may have been a disappointed cry from Kali, Lucas’s hands fell from her nipples and he collapsed to his back once more, unable to utilize any of his muscles; controlled by the wild pleasure that surged through him. Just as his orgasm grew once more, when he thought she would slow to once more deny him release, she instead redoubled her actions sucking wildly and slapping the weight of her tits against his pelvis as she ravenously stroked every centimeter of him simultaneously.

Lucas shuddered as he came, lifting his head to see milky white jets of his thick cum suspended inside of Kali who continued to suck and stroke with reckless abandon. Currents of fluid, he had no idea from where exactly, rolled across his cock and applied pressure in all the right places to extend his orgasm and intensify the sensation of his ejaculate leaving him. He coughed and sputtered as the mind-numbing sensations refused to come to a close, extended far beyond what he thought normal.

Kali moaned as more and more of the wonderful energizing fluid rushed into her, she couldn’t stop herself as the warmth and power from this most precious of liquids became her own. It felt so wonderful, so satisfying, like Lucas’s slight earlier emissions were nothing but ordinary water. Even so she longed to have him lay his hands on her again. Until now she didn’t even realize she had nipples and the sensitive tips of her engorged breasts felt so good when his thick solid fingers played across them, much better than the greatest of sensations she managed to wrestle from them by herself. Kali sighed contentedly as the streams of hot ejaculate slowly ebbed and stopped.

She looked at Lucas, he was panting heavily with his hand draped across his forehead as he tried to recover from the ordeal. Kali didn’t realize it took so much out of him to cum like that and a tiny part of herself was irritated that he tired so easily. The lusty elemental wanted him to explore her body, to throw her down and ravish her, all the while clouding her clear body with his milky white spirit. Just thinking about it made her shudder with desire.

With that thought, another flood of information, the sort of that provided the inexperienced undine with all the lascivious knowledge until now, surged forth and presented her with a solution to her problem, one that made her squeal with delight. Hoisting herself out of the lake and back onto the surface once more she crawled over his body, letting the very tips of her dewdrop nipples slide across his chest leaving twin trails of water across his flesh. Kali straddled him, removing his hand and cupping his face with her own while staring at him with loving, almost motherly eyes.

“Poor master,” she sighed, rubbing a wet thumb over his cheek. “Tired out already?” Lucas tensed slightly as she seemed to gaze through him. “No, you still have so much more to give. I can see it smoldering inside you, but you poor body is so weak…”

Lucas mewled pathetically in response, too tired to mask his shame and disappointment at the frailty of his body. All he did was cum. More than he ever had in his life, yes, but why was he so exhausted?

The lusty elemental drew closer until she was nearly touching his face with hers. “What if I could keep you going… would you like that, Master? Would you like to have your power returned to you?” She licked her juicy lips once more as the words oozed out of her oily mouth. “Would you like to fuck me?”

Her toy whined in the affirmative, eliciting a pleased laugh from Kali as she placed a slender finger against his lips silencing him. “Shhh… let me take care of you, Master, apologize for being so angry before. I know you care about me, so let me help you.”

She guided one of her still enlarged breasts to Lucas’s panting mouth. “Look how full they are…” she moaned. “If only someone could help me drain th- Ah!”

The  didn’t let her finish teasing him, her invitation to suckle hear breasts was too arousing to ignore any longer and he began lavishing her pliant flesh with hungry kisses. Wrapping his hands around her smooth back, he pulled the squealing undine close so her malleable water-skin rested heavily on his eager face. He inhaled her clean scent in deeply, noting that a fine mist seemed to rise from her and moisten his skin with a pleasant tingling feeling. As he suckled with fervor, he lifted his hands and plunged them into her breasts, massaging the globe his head was buried in while twisting and pulling the neglected teat.

“Yes…” she breathed, “Just like that…”

Lucas bit down, eliciting both extending mewling from Kali and a burst of refreshing fluid from her breast. It was crisp and tasted mostly like water – if a little sweet – but where it slid against his mouth it burned like alcohol. Oddly enough, rather than the uncomfortable feeling that last night’s whiskey gave him, Kali’s secretions were pleasant and each mouthful eased his weary body, allowing him to steadily become more and more forceful in his groping.

The wonderful fluid raced down his throat and splashed into his stomach, rejuvenating and compounding his arousal. Lucas drank and drank and drank finding each new spurt to be tastier and more revitalizing than the last. The overwhelmed elemental began to whimper as her master reclaimed more and more of his energy, switching breasts as they became lopsided with his uneven attentions.

Utterly intoxicated by her leaking mounds, Lucas couldn’t help himself from massaging, twisting, pulling, and nibbling; doing everything in his power to feel more of her sensual flesh and milk more and more of the live-giving nectar. He pinched nipples together, catching the resulting jet in his mouth before suckling once more on the united tips.

Kali’s hands slid under the surface of the water, fingers tangling through his dark hair as she gasped in time with his nursing. A small part of her mind was unwilling to let the power leave her, but the intoxicating feeling as it sprayed out of her and the promise of much greater pleasure left her happy to do it.

They remained like that for the longest time, neither willing to break away from the maternal embrace. Eventually, as the balance of power between the two became more lopsided, Lucas gradually eased Kali off him, laying her weakening body back across the surface of the water with strong firm hands.

Much to their mutual disappointment, the delicious geysers eventually slowed and ceased altogether. Lucas reluctantly pulled away from her springy breasts, allowing the last dregs of her secretions to drip down his chin. He looked at Kali; her head lolled to the side with a dazed expression painted on it. He noticed her breasts were back to the original size; maybe even a little smaller than before., chastising himself for being too forceful although her blissful smile showed she enjoyed it just as much as he had.

“That was…” he tried but couldn’t find the proper words. Instead, he leaned over Kali’s prostrating form and tenderly rolled her limp head to meet him.

She really was beautiful; her exotic crystalline features sent shivers down his spine even now. What had possessed him to let such a woman, a woman that called him master, to suffer for even a moment before turning the full force of his welcomed lust upon her?

“Yes…” she breathed hotly. “Now please…” Kali’s exhausted hands crawled across her breasts, slowly snaking down over her smooth curves and allowing her fingers to come to rest around her featureless nethers. “Right here,” she cried, tantalizingly squeezing her water-flesh. “Please, I need it here!”

Robert looked closer at her crotch and was shocked by what he saw, or rather didn’t see. “There’s- I mean there’s… nothing there…” he stammered, dumbfounded.

“Please! I can’t do it myself!” she furiously jabbed at the formless expanse where her cunt would be. “I tried! I tried so hard but I can’t!”

Dubious, but moved by her impassioned pleas, Lucas tentatively slid a finger against her phantom slit causing Kali to convulse and thrash meekly from side to side as he quested across her mound looking for some break in the barrier that formed her physical body. After some time he found a thin vertical crack in her water skin, sticking the barest tip of his finger inside.

Kali shouted in ecstasy as the pleasurable streams that twisted and roiled within coiled around Lucas as his wonderfully solid digit entered her. The powerful miniature currents supped upon him, trying to draw him deeper and deeper within her fluidic folds. She grabbed his hand with hers trying desperately to get him to hurry up and ravage her.

Her penetrating master obliged, inserting his finger as far as it would go reveling in the squeals that escaped her jellied lips. Distressingly slowly, he slid in and out of her, taking pains to cause as much pleasure as he could wile teasing her in the most agonizing fashion possible. As he inserted another digit, the licentious folds of her cleft pushed to the surface and rapidly defined into the sensual form of a pussy topped with an almost opalescent pearl shaped clit. Lucas leaned down and gave the newly emerged nub an experimental lick.

Expecting another strangled cry from Kali, the domineering covenanter was shocked when his entire hand was instantly sucked into her. It happened so quickly it took time for him to register this fact and the surreal sight of his hand suspended within her clear body was as mesmerizing as it was disturbing. Tentatively, he wiggled his fingers against the boiling currents that cocooned him inside her.

Kali bucked violently, arching her body at an inhuman angle while belting out a shrill screech of mind-rending rapture.”Yes! Oh god, Master it’s so big, so solid, it feels so good!” She surged upright, wrapping herself around Lucas in an instinctive embrace. “More,” she sobbed. “Go deeper!”

Lucas edge his hand further inside her, every inch increased the frequency of her constant moans. Her lip quivered madly as he strained against the crushing waves of her interior which surrounded him in a madly churning vortex. It wasn’t until Lucas had buried himself up to his elbow did the resistance force him to stop as his fingers met an impenetrable barrier.

Every time his fingers brushed upon the screen Kali jerked spastically, choking on the surge of debilitating pleasure each minute caress created. Reveling in the control he had over her from this most intimate of positions, Lucas started to take initiative. With one hand engulfed, he used his other to stroke the incoherent undine’s pearly clit while wrapping his lips around a neglected nipple.

Kali whined pathetically, unable to do anything. She was completely at the mercy of her covenanter and the joy it brought her was indescribable. Though his attentions brought no spirit energy, she was so enraptured purely by the feelings of pleasure surging through her body that even if she wanted to complain she couldn’t muster to mind to do it.

The writhing elemental sensed a pressure building within her as currents buckled and compressed. Normally when they did so they would break and reform elsewhere in her body but this was different; they coiled tighter and tighter in to a dense sphere of power just beyond the barrier that her master was so entranced with.

Desperately, Kali tried to hold the raging ball of pent up arousal in its place as she feared what would happen if it was allowed to suddenly burst. Nothing like this had ever happened to her before and there was no sudden surge of insight to tell her what was happening to her. “Master, wait I-“she tried to say before a particularly stiff knead from Lucas’s fist silenced her abruptly.

It was impossible. She couldn’t stop it.

The muscle-like waves of her vagina clenched in a rolling squeeze, pushing Lucas’s arm out of her just as her resolve crumbled and she shouted in incoherent ecstasy. A wash of liquid slapped against her lover’s crotch as she came violently, soaking him in a spicy fluid that instantly absorbed into his skin and set fire to his loins. Kali panted heavily, thoroughly exhausted as he violent expulsion drained what little energy she had left.

Lucas grinned at his handiwork; using her like this, making her to moan so sexily felt… good. He winced as the warm sensation that oozed into his genitals became uncomfortably hot.

“Kali.” He murmured slyly, now that he was in control he wanted to engage in a round of petty revenge.

Her head twitched but she didn’t move. “Yes…” she sighed dreamily.

“That was amazing, wasn’t it?”

“Yes,” she burbled again.

“It was certainly interesting. You know I never thought I’d do that sort of thing with a woman.” He put a sensually wet hand on the back of his neck. “But now I’m all out of whack and I don’t really know where to go from here.” It was the most egregious lie of Lucas’s entire life. Thankfully, Kali couldn’t see how painfully swollen his member was.

She whimpered as her master knelt at her feet.

“Do you have any ideas? You were certainly supernaturally knowledgeable about this sort of thing.”

“F…” she mumbled weakly.

“’F…?’” he echoed while grasping her feet with a strong firm grip. “Fondle? Feel? Forage?”

“Fu… Fu…” she tried again, getting closer to the magic word.

“Sorry?” Lucas leaned over, leveling his insufferable ear with her partially open mouth.

“Fuck me!” she screamed desperately.

Lucas tore her legs apart, his own barely contained desire motivating him as he only allowed a brief gaze at the shapely folds of her drooling pussy before thrusting his cock deep into her tight embrace. He sighed with relief as the heat diffused from his genitals, absorbed into the cooling clutch of her vagina as it rolled and slurped around him.

Animate streams of flesh throbbed and massaged his cock, in time with Kali’s contented sighs. He thrust in and out, reveling in the gentle suckling sensation as it chilled him and sated the sexual appetite that her cum had awoken in him.

Lucas allowed her legs to fall back to the ground. When the heat left him so did his animalistic desire. Instead he was left with a fluttering feeling in his chest. He didn’t know what it was, but every time he looked at Kali’s face – her wonderfully curved smile, her half lidded eyes, and her disheveled waterfall hair that merged back into the water below – he wanted to savor their lovemaking. Not just fuck her but to hold her close, to make her feel good and give her what she desired so badly. Lucas snaked his own hands beneath the lapping waves, cradling the radiant woman in a warm embrace as he slowly pumped in and out of her.

Kali sighed pleasantly as the sliding pressure of his dick against her walls jostled her entire body. The lusty part of Kali’s mind wanted him to move faster, to ravage her, to violently use her like an object but another part, the original Kali, returned his grasp and relished the wondrous sensations of his tender lovemaking. She buried her digits in the flesh of his back not to goad him to go faster but just to feel him; to feel his warmth, his body. Now she could finally touch him, really touch him and the realization of just how much she had always wanted this brought a tear to her eye.

She gazed lovingly at Lucas to find much to her joy he was admiring her as well. One of her arms streamed up his back and gently pressed against his head, bringing it closer as she guided him to her lips puckered into a perfect succulent O.

Lucas obliged and the pair kissed tenderly. The fire that spurred Kali’s rough actions before now smoldered as they simply pressed their mouths together; each reveling in the sensations of the other’s lips upon their own. As they lay in their sensual embrace, Lucas’s arm snaked across her body, over the strips of opaque cyan which cause Kali to moan softly into his mouth. The barest tip of her tongue poked into him as he cupped one of her breasts in his hand and kneaded the wonderful jelly-like mass.

As her loving master’s power leaked into her once more, Kali found her hips sinking slightly into the water, giving her leverage to quietly grind against him. She loved this; she loved the wonderful sensation of his solid flesh gliding against her internal currents as they tenderly lifted the pleasing feeling from her cunt and swirled it around insider her, warming her body, her spirit with his sexual flame.

Kali didn’t want it to end, it shouldn’t end and as the jets within her formed once more into a tight sphere of compressed force she cried out in distress. She didn’t want to, she didn’t want to cum again. She wanted to remain rocking against Lucas; her lips planted firmly on his with constant tender pressure.

But it was impossible, even though her conscious mind did not will it, her intimate barrier, the splendid screen that Lucas had orgasmically assaulted with his fist, descended down to meet the tip of his rocking cock. Kali mournfully broke off the kiss as she weakly sucked the air. His soft glans felt so much better than his fingers and her building orgasm screamed into tsunami proportions.

Her internal turmoil didn’t escape Lucas’s notice, buried within her as he was and now that he was robbed of her lips he instead planted a series of soft kisses against her neck all the while continuing to brush against Kali’s most sensitive area. He nibbled the pliant flesh of her glassy fin-like ear, grinning slightly when she shivered. “You’re going to cum.” He breathed hotly.

“No…” she moaned clutching his back desperately. “I don’t want to. I don’t want this to stop!”

The writhing undine gagged as Lucas suddenly slammed his hips into her while roughly twisting one of her dewy nipples between his fingers. Her liquid interior which had once been plush and inviting clamped down around him and boiled with rolling waves of ecstatic fervor. He groaned; amazed at how quickly he sent her insides into overdrive.

Kali was panting heavily now, a bluer flush of color on her face gave the impression that she was blushing profusely as she instinctive rocked her hips against his thrusts. Occasionally a cracking voice would try to say something but it was drowned out under another tide of pleasure as Lucas struck against her g-spot once more.

Icicle fingers dug into Lucas’s back as Kali curled into a tense half-fetal position. She was on the edge, one more thrust and her pressurized deluge would burst forth once more.

Feeling the pressure against her barrier and realizing what it meant, he slowly pulled out but allowed himself to stay inside her, the barest tip kissing the cushion-like folds of her labia. It pained him immensely to stop. “You don’t want to cum, right?”

“No!” she gasped. “No, please I do! I do want to cum, I’m so close! Please keep fucking me!”

With a powerful lunge he rammed cock into her once more, impacting Kali’s screen so suddenly she lost control entirely. The water goddess erupted, her strong currents slapping against Lucas as her pent up lust and pleasure soaked the pair in her fiery internal juices. Kali jerked spastically as another rolling crash, one that had been hiding behind the first squirted out of her again.

Lucas’s penis felt the burning of her liquid once more but couldn’t rid itself of the spicy sensation as her pussy was awash with the same juices. Suddenly lust-mad he bolted upright and tore her legs apart, trying to bury even more of his swollen cock into her.

“Augh!” she gagged again. “Stop! Not now I’m still-Ah!” Kali was cut off by a particularly stiff thrust.

 “Can’t,” he grunted, trying in vain to use her still pulsating cunt to alleviate the burning sensation that drove him to wanton insanity while the steady building pressure in his balls did little to help his growing anguish.

Kali’s cum shot out of her as her master’s violent strikes forced the remaining liquid to rush out in pressurized jets. Her hungry folds constricted his penis even tighter, sustaining her rolling orgasm while bubbles burbled up to her skin, releasing tiny wisps of pleasant smelling vapor.

Lucas marveled at the tightness of her pussy, it was so much stronger, so much better than it had been before. Her insides, which felt more like warm oil than water, were easy to slide in and out of yet they grasped him so intoxicatingly well.

“Kali I…”

“Do it, Master! Stain me! Feed me!” Kali roughly mashed her slick breasts with her free hands, just as mad with lust as her beloved master. She felt her mind crumbling as it became more and more difficult to hold her body together through the outrageous spasms of pleasure that assaulted her transformed spirit with lascivious energy.

Lucas grunted as he was finally brought to orgasm, the heat that had so tormented him left with the searing white streams of his ejaculate which resolved into opaque tendrils within Kali’s crystal-clear stomach.

Not seconds after the jets of cum ceased and her love went limp, the bubbling undine released a long pleasurable moan as her body lost definition and collapsed into the lake. Soon after the force that had suspended Lucas’s prone form on the surface of the lake all this time buckled and collapsed, sending him splashing into the water.

Coughing and sputtering, he righted himself and realized after all this time he had forgotten that they hadn’t been on solid ground for what felt like hours. Treading water, he looked around for some unnatural shape that would indicate Kali but saw none.

He jumped as the phantom sensation of hands flowed across his chest. Soon after, twin fleshy mounds resolved against his back and the silky feeling of Kali’s flowing waterfall hair slid against his collar. Finally, supple thighs wrapped around his legs, impeding his ability to tread water though he did not sink.

“Thank you for your spirit, Master.” Kali’s composed, soothing voice flowed gently into Lucas’s ear. “It was so warm, so much nicer than before.” She tittered melodiously. “Did you like it too?”

“Yes,” breathed Lucas, relaxing in the undine’s gentle undulating embrace. He stopped kicking, trusting in her invisible entwined limbs to keep his head above the water. “You’re very good at this.”

She reverently nuzzled his neck. “It’s because I love you so much. I’m sure that’s why I have this body, why I knew what to do to please you best.”

Lucas’s heart fluttered again. Her declaration of love caught him off-guard. He’d never thought that Kali would be capable of loving but then he never though he would be here; surrounded by her intimate embrace with her whispering sweet words to him in a cherishing voice.  Bobbing together, he felt closer to her than ever before.

He clasped his hands over hers. It wasn’t love; not quite yet.

But it was close.
