The Sensual Serpent

As Vashite breathed in the pungent smell of ammonia, her eyes fluttered open. One of the servants revived her with a small flask of smelling salts. As her eyes adjusted to the scenery, she tried to remember how she wound up on the floor. She looked around confused as several people were standing over her wondering what had happened to her. When her eyes settled on Thulsa behind one of the servants, her memory slowly came back to her.

When she suddenly remembered every detail before she fainted, her jaw dropped. She shook her head in disbelief at what had happened earlier. Have I lost my mind? I know damned well I didn't see what I THOUGHT I saw! Then she realized what Thulsa had been trying to tell her that night in the bath tub. Breathe Vashite, breathe! she told herself as she began hyperventilating. When she tried to rise up, her body ached in pain from the fall. On the back of her head, she felt a knot forming.

Concerned, Thulsa asked her "Is all well . . . my love? Are you hurt?"

Vashite shivered with terror and just looked at him.

He asked "Are you cold?"

She replied fearfully "I . . . don't know what I am . . ."

He began to help her up, but she couldn't take her eyes off of him. When she stood up, she screamed hysterically. Doom tried his best to hold and comfort her. She struggle get out of his embrace by kicking and bucking. She finally settled down when Doom gave her a hard slap across the face.

Doom then led her to quiet sitting area where they could talk. She cried and held her stinging cheek as they walked.

When they were seated, she asked him hysterically "Who are you!? WHAT are you!?"

Doom calmly tried to reason with her "It grieves me . . . to have to lay hands on you, but you left me no other choice. I am . . . what I am . . ." He continued sonorously "It shouldn't matter . . . what I am . . . I am still he who you fell in love with . . ."

Vashite stammered without thinking "But . . .but . . .you are not human! Why didn't you tell me!?"

Doom sighed and said "You knew I wasn't human . . .before you became involved with me . . . " 

Vashite silently thought about it for a moment. She totally forgot about what the servant girl told her about Doom when she first arrived here. Be careful how you speak of him, Lord Doom is no ordinary man . . .

Doom spoke up angrily "I knew you wouldn't understand . . . After all I have proved to you . . .You still doubt me . . ."

Vashite replied "I never did doubt you! I thought I knew everything about you . . . until I saw you shape shift! I could of expected it, if you had already told me!" she continued "I know why you hate humans now . . . because you are not one. You didn't even have to tell me that. I know you are a demigod, but what else are you?"

Doom responded "I am a serpent man . . .and I am the last one living."

Vashite asked in disbelief even though she knew "A serpent man?"

Doom replied "Yes . . . a snake man. . . half man, half snake . . . I can shift whenever I desire. This doesn't have to cease . . .  our fondness for one another. Will you take me as I am? I have already . . . done the same for you . . . "

She realized then that he was right. They were two different species and she knew this since she arrived there. It was so different seeing him turn into a snake in person. It was deeply disturbing and frightening. She had never seen anything like it. And by her being a human, he accepted her. She just didn't accept him.

She finally answered him "I don't know Doom . . . I could try to. This is too much!"

She then winced at the thought of fucking him in his snake form.

His face contorted as his mood shifted.  "You will  . . . submit to me in any form I wish you to . . .and you will like it! This discussion is over." his voice boomed. He glared at her and got up and left.
