He inhaled deeply and shook his head.
"You carry my scent. It is divine. But if you must wash, let me do it."
It was damn tempting and I shook my head.
"You're just looking for a way to fuck me."
He laughed again and shook his head, those golden eyes of his on fire as he raked them over me.
"I promise, my love, I won't fuck you unless you ask me as you did last night."
I must've been too horny to think straight because I gave him a curt nod and turned away from the giant tentacle cock.
I ran up the stairs and to the en suite, Fish Man still hot on my heels, where I turned on the water to warm up, and started to pull my shirt over my head. That's when the voice my ex had made sure was ingrained in my mind started to speak.
Fat tummy. Saggy boobs. Thick thighs with dimples on them.
I'd worked damn hard to overcome it between therapy and a support group. But sometimes, out of the blue, those voices reared their ugly head.
"Could you...could you turn around?" I asked.
Fish Man frowned at me, tilting his head in that inquisitive way that was almost cute.
"Why have you suddenly become so small? That is what scared fish do when threatened. What have I done to scare you?"
"It's not you, I just...I'm a little self-conscious of this," I gestured to my body.
He took his time letting his gaze run down me and I flushed deeply under his attention. What did he see? What did he feel? I know we fucked last night, but I was still wearing my shirt and it had been dark, that much I did remember. I doubted he saw much but still, I was more aware now and my ex's words were hard to shut down at the moment.
"You are as beautiful as the moonlight on the waves. As tempting as the deepest treasures of my realm. I long to see every curve and dip of your body, to lave it with my tongue and coat it in my spill. You are a goddess of the waves, my Queen and I adore the expanse of your body."
I snorted, even as the temptation to believe him was pulling at my heart.
"I've heard that before, and then the clothes come off and suddenly it's all 'hey let's turn off the lights' and 'do you really need that ice cream?'"
His eyes narrowed at that and his jaw tensed. Suddenly the fire in his gaze turned from lustful to furious and I took a step back.
"Who has lied to you in this way? Who has harmed your soul? I will rip his spine from his body and fashion his rib cage into a crown for you to wear as I string his entrails across the sea!"
His rage was not performative, it was viscerally real and somehow it broke through the fear. I laughed as tears fell hot from my eyes.
"You weep," he growled and flicked his tongue out to drink my tears. "I will find this male and give you the first flay of his skin for what he's done to you."
"Oh believe me, I would like nothing better, but I'm pretty sure he's suffering plenty right now."
He nodded.
"If you are satisfied with the vengeance, then so am I. Now, allow me to show you the truth of your beauty and then we shall sate your appetite."
Before I could say anything, he'd taken the hem of my shirt and began to pull it over my head. I took a deep breath and raised my arms, daring to believe in what he'd just said.
When it was off, I looked him in the eyes and was struck breathless. He was devouring me, his gaze tongues of fire across my breasts and stomach.
"Oh," he breathed, brushing my hard nipple with one soft knuckle, "in all my lonely years in that amulet, I never dared to dream such beauty could be mine."
It sounded like a line, like something a fairy tale prince would say to get into a chamber maids pantaloons.
But it wasn't.
