Where the Waters Warm
By SMYGO4EVA
The woman sunk into the warm waters, soothing, sweet-smelling, and such a comfort from the outside world. She let out a soft sigh, filling the air, and she closed her eyes, her body relaxing, after an eternity.
Out in the darkness, Jorougumo, the queen of spiders, followed the woman soon after, dipping herself into the vast, warm pool.
The woman felt the spider matron's presence, and she opened her eyes. She didn't feel fear, nor did she feel unease or discomfort. She had not felt such emotions in quite some time. Not since Jorougumo leant out her hand, her body caked from head to toe in blood, and the woman reached forward, her hands tinted red.
The woman ate mermaid flesh, she became the yaobikuni, thus cursed to live forever. She was mistreated, her body unwilling to the urges of men, and sleep a brief escape. The spider matron saw the woman, the immortal, and she wanted her to keep, to hold, and to give such pleasure, what was once denied.
Jorugumo moved behind the woman, arms around the woman, and the woman looked to her, eyes lidded. Her lithe fingers weaved through the woman's hair, and the woman leaned back to the spider matron's touch. The firm movements of her hands sent shivers down the woman's spine, her eyes fluttering shut, and her heart skipping a beat.
The queen of spiders smiled, her lips plump red, and she let her hands slide down the woman's shoulders, massaging her sore muscles. The woman eased back into the water, resting her head on the spider matron's shoulder. The other woman chuckled, a hungry, lusting smile growing on her features.
"It's alright, you have me now, so there's no need to be afraid." The spider matron spoke gently, her voice lulling but sensual, the tips of her fingers brushing the curves of the woman's breasts.
The woman let out a sharp inhale, arching into Jorougumo's touch. She slowly nodded, her face flushed, and with a soft, content smile. "Yes."
The queen of spiders grinned, leaning in and kissing the woman on her neck, and then pressing her mouth full on the lips. Such sweetness from a lovely treasure, and a woman living for all time.
They belonged together, and to each other.
