Neptune's Ring Read online

  Del moved from beneath the flow of water and exchanged places with Simone. She soaked her hair and then used the shampoo to wash her silky hair. Then she pulled Simone to her for a passionate kiss.

  “Don’t be long, dinner will be here soon.”

  Simone nodded her head and Del stepped out of the shower. She toweled off and took an oversized robe from the closet and put it on. She ran her fingers thru her hair and smiled to herself as she opened the drawer and took out the strap on and dildo. She slipped the tube of lubricant in the robe pocket and walked to the bedroom. Del stepped into the harness and pulled the strap snugly around her waist, and then tied the robe closed.

  Del lounged on the love seat as she waited for Simone and dinner to arrive. Simone was still drying off when the room service attendant arrived with the tray and Del had her place the food trays on the small table. Del tipped the young woman and then locked the door behind her as she left.

  Simone walked into the room just as Del was sitting down at the small table.

  “Are you hungry?” Del asked.

  “I am starved,” Simone said.

  “Me too,” Del said, her voice now again soft as she spoke with Simone.

  They shared a delicious meal of grilled chicken kabobs and wild rice and then relaxed on the love seat to let their meals settle.

  Simone was tucked into Del’s body, her head resting on her shoulder as they listened to music on the sound system. Simone’s left hand slipped beneath the fold of Del’s robe as her lips brushed her neck. Del laid her head back against the wall as Simone’s fingertips drew circles around her nipples and her teeth lightly grazed her neck.

  “Are you ready for dessert?”

  “I am still a little hungry,” Simone said, as she pinched Del’s nipple.

  “Stand and take your robe off,” Del said.

  Simone stood and took the robe from her body and tossed it onto the loveseat. She watched as Del’s hands opened the front of the robe, revealing the strap on already in place. Her hand disappeared into the pocket and she offered the tube of lubricant to Simone.

  Simone smiled and took the lubricant, pouring it into her palm. She placed the tube on the table and knelt between Del’s legs. She wrapped her hand around the base of the dildo and slid it up the length of the shaft coating it with the silky lube. The motion of her hand placed pressure on the harness straps and Del felt her clit begin to swell with arousal.

  The dildo pressed into Simone’s cleavage as she leaned forward to take Del’s left breast in her mouth while her hand gently squeezed her right breast. Her teeth lightly bit her nipples as Del’s moans filled the room.

  Del pulled Simone up to her mouth for a hungry kiss as her hand moved between their bodies to find Simone’s wetness awaiting her fingers. She slid two fingers deeply inside her while Simone’s tongue went wild inside her mouth. Satisfied that Simone’s body was well lubricated, Del took the tip of the dildo and slipped it between her lips as she pulled Simone’s hips into her lap.

  Simone’s body lowered onto the dildo as she moaned deeply into Del’s mouth. Her hips began to grind slowly into Del’s lap as the toy disappeared deeper into her body. Del’s hands guided Simone’s hips as she raised and lowered them, impaling her body with the dildo on each downward thrust. The base of the harness mount ground into Del’s clit with each movement and Del broke the kiss in search of a breath as she and Simone came together with violent shudders.

  Simone collapsed onto Del and Del circled her waist with her hands and carried Simone to the bed. Still buried deeply inside of Simone, Del placed her hips on the edge of the bed and began slowly stroking into her body. Simone’s orgasm had just ended, but she felt another begin to build as Del fucked her slowly.

  “Oh yes, Del,” Simone purred.

  Del was pleased to know that at least Simone got the name right this time as she increased the speed of her hips, driving deep into Simone’s body as her hands spread her thighs wide. Simone would forget Levi ever existed in her world after tonight, she promised herself as she slammed her hips into Simone’s body while she screamed out in pleasure.

  Sweat was rolling down her back as Del withdrew the dildo from Simone’s shaking body and she walked to the loveseat just as her knees began to buckle. She collapsed onto the seat, gasping for air as the blood rushed back into her quivering legs. She reached for a glass and took a long drink of the water, cooling her overheated body as her eyes met Simone’s. The hunger still burned in them as she glared back at Del.

  “Come here,” Del said.

  Del stood and pushed the food tray onto a nearby chair. Simone stood in front of her and Del guided her upper body to lie across the table.

  “Spread your legs wide,” Del growled as she took the tip of the dildo and entered Del. “You want more, I will give you more,” she said as she thrust her hips into the cheeks of Simone’s ass.

  Del grabbed the sides of the table, using it for leverage as her body slapped into Simone’s ass with each forceful thrust of her body. Simone’s howls of pleasure rang in Del’s ears as until she climaxed and passed out from the intense pleasure.

  Del fell backward and caught the edge of the loveseat with her hand to steady her body. She unfastened the dildo allowing it to fall to her feet as she collapsed onto the loveseat. Del closed her eyes and used her mind to slow the pounding of her heart as her body trembled in exhaustion. She sensed rather than heard movement and when she opened her eyes, Simone was on her knees in front of her. Simone draped Del’s right leg over the arm of the furniture and covered Del’s wetness with her mouth as her hot tongue plunged in and out of her body. Simone’s face was coated with Del’s wetness as she buried her face in Del’s body. Her palm rubbed roughly across Del’s clit and Del’s consciousness faded away as her body erupted with pleasure.

  When she awoke, Simone had collapsed with her head in Del’s lap. Del mustered enough strength to stand and lead Simone onto the bed as they fell into an exhausted sleep.

  PART EIGHT

  Levi got up with Vanessa and drank coffee with her while Vanessa dressed for work. Vanessa was so incredibly handsome in her crisply creased white uniform that Levi’s heart swelled with pride.

  “Good grief, you look good enough to eat,” Levi said, as she watched Vanessa fasten her belt.

  “You keep talking like that and this cruise will be delayed,” Vanessa said, as she leaned down to kiss Levi.

  “Go back to sleep and call for room service when you are ready for breakfast,” Vanessa said. “We should be out of the port and safely underway by one if you would like to join Killian and I for lunch in the control room.”

  “I will be there,” Levi answered, as she watched Vanessa walk to the door. “I love you.”

  “I love you too, Levi,” Vanessa said and walked out the door.

  Levi slumped back down in the bed and covered her face with Vanessa’s pillow. She was so completely in love it almost scared her. She relaxed in the comfortable bed, but sleep eluded Levi. She climbed out of the bed an hour later and walked naked through Vanessa’s cabin. She sat at her desk and looked at the pictures of Vanessa, Killian and various other crew members which framed her heavy oak desk. Vanessa looked so happy in the pictures and Levi was glad she saw the same sparkle in her eyes whenever Vanessa looked at her.

  Levi slipped on Vanessa’s robe and walked to the balcony with a cup of coffee. She leaned against the edge of the balcony and looked down at the mass of women who were boarding the ship. The sun burned brightly as she watched the noisy crowd disappear into the ship.

  Levi returned inside the cabin and walked to the bathroom and turned on the shower. She hung the robe on the wall and stepped into the warm shower. The water caressed her skin as she stood motionless under the flow of the water. She stepped back and washed her hair before reaching for a sponge and a bottle of liquid soap. Levi bathed her body with the silky soap and she had to giggle as her nipples grew hard under her touch. Vanessa had her body so a
live, the slightest touch made them grow erect. Levi closed her eyes and imagined the hands on her body were Vanessa’s. She was amazed at how excited she became and when her fingers entered her body, she was slippery with excitement. She leaned back against the shower wall as her fingers brought her intense pleasure as she dreamed of Vanessa. Her body shuddered with release and Levi rinsed the evidence of her self induced pleasure down the drain.

  Levi stepped from the shower and heard the blast of the horn as it signaled time for departure and she felt the ship begin to move as she toweled her body dry.

  Nat woke when she felt Liz’s weight on the bed as she sat down beside her lover.

  “Good morning,” Liz said. “Are you ready for some coffee?”

  “Morning Sweetheart, yes, coffee sounds great,” Nat said, as she sat up in the bed and propped against the pillows. “Thanks,” she said as she took the coffee from Liz.

  “Did you sleep well?” Liz asked.

  “I barely remember crawling into bed,” Nat said.

  “Aww, just another day before Levi gets back,” Liz said.

  “Not a moment too soon either, her absence reminds me that I am not young anymore,” Nat said.

  “You are still plenty young enough, Baby we have just gotten spoiled by Levi.”

  “That is so true. If we take on a new resort things will have to change again,” Nat said.

  “We had just started discussing that last night, when we got busy,” Liz said. “What is in that plan of yours?”

  “I really think someone needs to be there to oversee things, but I am not willing to be apart from you for any length of time,” Nat said.

  “That is sweet. So who do you have in mind?”

  “Well Vanessa has the cruise line, so I think she is not an option, which only leaves Levi. I suggest we place her on salary and replace her as the bartender here and send her to the island to monitor the progress.”

  “How do you think she and Vanessa will feel about that?” Liz asked.

  “That, I don’t know,” Nat said. “Levi could live in the owner’s house while on the island and she could fly back here when Vanessa is in port,” she suggested.

  “What if the island is really haunted?” Liz asked.

  “Do you really believe that it could be?” Nat asked.

  “I don’t want to rule anything out completely,” Liz said, surprising Nat.

  “I didn’t think you believe in ghosts, baby,” Nat chuckled.

  “Do I need to remind you that Simone didn’t believe in curses either and look what has happened to her,” Liz said.

  “You know I could have gone all day without the mention of Simone,” Nat said.

  “I am sorry, but it is a prime example.”

  “Ok Baby, as usual you are right,” Nat conceded.

  “If we think the island is really haunted then we will not enter into the venture,” Nat said. “I would never put Levi in a situation where she was in harm’s way.”

  “I know that, Sweetie,” I am just thinking about all the variables.

  Nat sat her coffee cup beside the bed. “That is part of what I love about you, My Sweet,” she said as she kissed Liz.

  Del woke and dressed quietly and left the suite leaving Simone purring away in her sleep. She collected all her clothes and headed back to her room, placing the do not disturb sign on the door. She showered and dropped naked into her bed, determined to sleep the day away.

  Levi dressed and left the room. It was still over an hour away from the time she agreed to have lunch with Vanessa and Killian so she walked around the ship until she found herself in the casino. The ladies were already crowded around the card tables and slot machines as she waded through the crowd. Levi found a vacant seat at a slot and pulled a twenty out of her pocket and slipped it into the machine. She pulled the arm down and watched the wheel roll and land on a non-winning line. She laughed and placed her next bet and pulled the arm again, now the victim of the entrancing slot machine. She made several pulls before she hit her first winner. Levi doubled her bet and continued to play, storing her winnings as credits. When she pulled the handle on the last of her twenty dollar investment, Levi had four hundred credits. When the wheel fell on a losing line, Levi pushed the cash out button and listened as the coins made a clanging sound as they struck the steel bin. Levi scooped the coins into a plastic cup and walked to the cashier’s office. With a fresh new hundred dollar bill tucked safely in her pocket, Levi left the casino to continue her tour.

  She climbed up to the top deck and found the pool area already crowded with women. Cory was behind the bar, pouring drinks as fast as she could when Levi took a stool at the bar.

  “Hiya, Levi,” Cory said, as she looked up to see her sitting at the bar.

  “Hey Cory, they are starting off hot and heavy aren’t they?” Levi said.

  “The first day is always a crush as the ladies let their hair down and new connections are made or romances rekindled,” Cory said. “What can I get you to drink?”

  “How about a cherry coke when you have a minute.”

  A very attractive brunette was sitting next to Levi and heard her order. “I would gladly buy you something a little stronger,” she said with a charming smile.

  “Thanks, but I think I will stick to being a lightweight for a while,” Levi said.

  “Levi, please meet Cass,” Cory said from behind the bar. “Cass is one of our frequent guests,” she explained.

  “Very nice to meet you, Cass,” Levi said.

  “Levi is the hot new bartender at the resort I am sure you have heard about,” Cory said, making Levi blush.

  “So you are the creator of Tropical E and now the Slow Grind,” Cass stated.

  “I guess you have heard,” Cory said with a chuckle.

  “Yes, those are my creations,” Levi proudly said.

  “I haven’t had a Tropical E yet, but the Slow Grind is very tasty,” Cass said, as she raised her glass in salute to Levi.

  “Thanks, it is a bit more potent than the Tropical E,” Levi said, as she lifted her glass to meet Cass’s.

  “A pleasure to meet you,” Cass said, “and the offer of a drink still stands.”

  “Thanks, I may take you up on that offer later,” Levi said.

  Kiki, the activities coordinator picked up a microphone and made a shout out to the crowd.

  “Are we having fun yet, ladies?”

  “Hell yeah,” came the roar from the crowd.

  “I can’t hear you, are we having fun yet ladies?” she asked again.

  “Hell yeah,” was the response, much louder this time.

  “That was so much better that time ladies. My name is Kiki, and I am your activities coordinator for your Sappho One Cruise,” she said. “It is my personal responsibility to make sure each and every one has a fun filled trip with us,” she explained. “If you have any questions, feel free to hit me up at any time. Are we ready to dance?” she asked.

  “Hell yeah,” the crowd roared.

  “DJ Darla, if you please, the ladies are ready to dance. Come slide with us ladies,” Kiki said as the DJ started up the electric slide song and the women rushed to the small dance floored cleared around the pool.

  Kiki led the group to start the dance and then left the dance floor to circulate among the guests, welcoming them on board.

  “She sure is a bundle of energy,” Levi said to Cory with a wink. “How do you keep up with her?” she teased.

  “Vitamins, and plenty of them,” Cory said with a laugh.

  “Maybe I should try those,” Levi said.

  “It can’t hurt,” Cory said. “I don’t know what I would do without them.”

  Levi glanced at her watch to note the time. “I am meeting Vanessa and Killian for lunch Cory, what would you recommend?” Levi asked.

  “If you just want something fairly light, the club sandwich is awesome,” she answered.

  “That sounds yummy, thanks, Cory.”

  “I will see you
later then and again it was nice to meet you Cass,” Levi said.

  “Likewise,” Cass said.

  “Later Levi,” Cory said with a warm smile.

  Levi walked inside and took the route to the control room. Killian saw her approach and waved her inside.

  “Vanessa just stepped into the ladies room, but she will be right back.”

  “Thanks, is everything going well?” Levi asked.

  “Like clockwork,” Killian said.

  “I can’t get over how beautiful it is out here on the water, even when you can’t see anything but blue water to the horizon,” Levi said.

  “We will be passing some small islands later today, that have lighthouses and small villages, but until then it’s all blue water and maybe some dolphins.”

  “Hey Baby,” Vanessa said, as she stepped back into the room. “How did you sleep?”

  “I couldn’t go back to sleep after you left, so I showered and dressed before doing some walking around.”

  “I am sorry, baby I should have just snuck quietly out of the bed and left you sleeping.”

  “I would have been very upset with you, besides I left the casino eighty dollars richer,” Levi said with a grin.

  “Did you eat breakfast?”

  “No, I decided I would just wait to eat lunch with you.”

  “Are you ready to order then?” Vanessa asked.

  “Cory recommended the club sandwich, so I think I will give that a try,” Levi said.

  “It is a good one,” Vanessa said, “so I think I will join you with that.”

  “Killian would you put an order in for us?” Vanessa asked.

  “It would be my pleasure, Captain.”

  Vanessa gave Levi the tour of the control room and showed her the different instruments they used to track the weather, their progress on the time table and a giant GPS system which constantly monitored their location en route.

  “This is amazing,” Levi said.

  “It is all very simple after you learn the system,” Vanessa said. “Once we key in the master coordinates, the ship is on virtual cruise control. We mostly monitor weather and sea conditions and let the instruments do the rest.”
