MELITE'S BELATED BIRTHDAY TALE by Freya
Herk had the uncomfortable feeling that someone was watching him. He felt eyes
boring into his back and it was making him uneasy. He was already late making it
back to the amazon camp. He mumbled to himself as he hid behind a tree "I *DON'T need
this right now". He silently waited and soon spotted two hooded figures
hurrying down the path.
"Who do we have here I wonder? Discord...and her halfwit side kick Strife? Has
Ares sent them to irritate me?" he thought as he reached out and grabbed the two
figures by the nape of their necks and lifted them in the air.
"Gotcha!" he yelled and as he got ready to knock their heads together, one of
the figure's hood came off, revealing blonde hair.
"Nannyboo?" Herk questioned as Boo pushed her hair out of her face and
nodded.
"If you're Boo...then who is this?" Herk grinned as he gently shook the other
figure.
"Hiya Herk!" Freya said as she pushed her hood down. "Um....ya think
you could put us down?"
"I will when you answer some questions for me" Herk said in what he hoped was a
stern voice. "First, what are you doing following me?"
"We weren't really following you Herk...we were looking for you." Boo explained.
"You were supposed to back at the camp over 2 weeks ago" Freya interrupted.
"We got worried" Boo continued.
"So you came looking for me? Herk replied as he gently lowered the amazons to the
ground. "Um... Ladies... I'm touched... but you know I can take care of myself.
I know I'm late, but I'm making it back for Thanksgiving... I didn't miss anything
else did I?
Freya looked down at her feet. Boo pinched her. Freya pinched her back. Boo
stood on her tiptoes and whispered something in Herk's ear. His eyes widened in
surprise. His face paled. He smacked his hand to his forehead. "How could I
forget?? How could I??"
Herk took off at a dead run down the path towards the amazon camp.
*************
Melite was in her favorite place. A secluded cove that had its own little cave.
Inside the cave was a shallow pool of warm water and a small sandy beach. The
sand was as smooth as baby powder. On cooler evenings you could make a fire inside
the cave and forget that the outside world existed. A naturally made skylight let
the smoke out and the moonbeams in. Melite
often thought of herself as a mermaid when she was in her cove. She stretched out
her legs and wiggled her toes into the sand. "Mermaids don't wear clothes"
she thought to herself and giggled as she removed her tunic. She unbraided her hair and it
fell in soft curls over her shoulders and down her back. She sat, poised at the edge
of the pool and began to softly sing.
***********
Herk skidded into the amazon camp and went straight to Melite's hut. He flung open
her door and yelled her name but no one answered.
"Looking for someone?" Kallista asked as she and SHerk scooted by on their razor
scooter built for two.
"MELITE!" Herk shouted. "Have you seen Melite??"
"Saw her heading towards the shore" Kal answered as they disappeared around a
corner.
"Of course" Herk thought. "Her private place." He
grinned...a sly sexy grin.
He quickly stopped at the SorboMart and threw things in his basket. Some wine and
grapes and strawberries and chocolate. A loaf of crusty bread, still warm from the
oven. Some scented candles and body oils. And a big feather filled comforter.
He hurried to Melite's cove.....
.....and stopped short at the entrance of the cave. For he swore he was looking at a
vision. He shook his head. He heard singing. "Is that the song of a
siren?" he thought. "Am I looking at a mermaid?" He dropped the
basket he was carrying and rubbed his eyes. Melite turned at the sound.
"Herk" she said softly and that was all the invitation he needed. Herk
rushed to her side and knelt beside her, gathering her into his arms and pressing her
against his chest.
"Melite....Melite" he murmured her name over and over again as he rained tiny
little kisses over her forehead and eyes. He kissed her ears and her cheeks, then
found her mouth and his kisses deepened until Melite couldn't tell where her mouth ended
and his began.
He ran his hands down her arms and then up her sides, his palms pressing against her
breasts. And his tongue continued making love to her mouth. Melite pressed her hands
up against his chest and ran her fingers thru the curls she found there. Her fingers
stopped to tease a nipple and Herk groaned and pushed her down. He looked at his
love laying there, pale soft
skin, heaving rose tipped breasts, bruised lips, and couldn't peel himself out of his
clothes fast enough.
Covering her body with his, he gazed into her eyes and whispered "Happy Belated
Birthday Melite".....

Hope your special day was as special as you are to all of us Melite!
