***My tenth entry of my Wonder Woman sexual adventures series. If you enjoy this story, please check out the others I have written.
Aspects of the character Artemis from this story does not coincide with what is written about her in the comic books.
.....
Diana had just finished having lunch with her mother Hippolyta when they decided to take a walk around the palace grounds. She had arrived on Themyscira a few days earlier for a much-needed vacation. Things have finally calmed down for the Justice League, as there were no world-ending catastrophes for them to stop yet again, and a lot of the big supervillains were either incarcerated or on hiatus themselves. She was about to go on vacation with Steve Trevor, but he was still on mission for the U.S. government for at least another week. So she decided to spend this time with her mother before returning to the outside world to spend more time with Steve.
As they made their way towards the palace gardens to see the flowers in full bloom, they ran into a familiar face.
"Diana!" the woman happily called out to her.
"Artemis," Diana replied with a big smile on her face.
They walked up to each other and gave each other a traditional greeting of a hug with a kiss on both cheeks.
"It's good to see you again," said Artemis.
"It's good to see you too," said Diana. "It has been a while. You haven't left the island in a while."
"I'm not needed out there as much as you are."
Artemis was one of the few other Amazons to occasionally leave the island. She had joined Diana and other members of the Justice League on numerous adventures to help protect the planet, but she mostly stayed behind to protect the island from its own threats.
"You're looking good in these clothes," said Artemis. "I bet you miss dressing like an Amazon."
Diana was dressed in traditional Amazonian attire that was modeled after women's clothing from ancient Greece with some modernization. As much as Diana enjoyed the variety of clothing in the outside world, she did find some comfort dressing traditionally when she came back to the island. She also liked not having to wear a bra under those clothes. She gets roughed up pretty often in her battles, but it's the wrong type of bra that gives her the most physical discomfort.
"I do miss this sometimes," said Diana. "You also look good dressed this way. I almost never see you without your armor."
Artemis often wore her bronze armor and carried a few weapons. She wore it so often that sometimes people failed to recognize her when she occasionally dressed down. Although it was still hard not to know who she was on Themyscira, besides Wonder Woman, she was one of the most accomplished Amazon warriors on the island.
She asked Diana what brought her back to the island, and she got her up to speed with what was going on in the outside world.
"I'm glad things are calming down for once, long enough for you to visit us for more than a few days," said Artemis. "Since you're here, I'm going down to Lake Hera for a picnic and a swim with some of our old school friends; you should join us."
"That sounds wonderful; I haven't been to Lake Hera in ages," said Diana.
Diana asked her mother if it was alright if she went off with her old friends. She said she was definitely okay with it and then gave her a wink. Diana knew what that wink meant; her mother assumed, or at least hoped, that something would happen between Artemis and her daughter.
Diana didn't feel the need to correct her and just walked off with Artemis. She understood why her mother was hoping for something to happen between them. Hippolyta never approved of her daughter having sex with men or having a steady boyfriend like Steve Trever. She had always hoped that she would go back to women only and be with someone like Artemis.
Artemis and Diana were not just good friends and fellow warriors; they were former lovers as well. In fact, they had taken each other's virginities when they were younger, and many people thought they would marry at some point. But they started drifting apart as their paths began to diverge, and they decided to end things as friends. Artemis had some hope that maybe one day they would get back together again, but then Diana left the island and began her career as Wonder Woman, and they only occasionally saw each other after that in some adventures.
When they arrived at Lake Hera, it was just as beautiful as Diana remembered. It was a small but beautiful spot on Themyscira where many of the women of the island enjoyed visiting for a little fun and relaxation. The banks of the lake were a lustrous, flat green field where picnics were being held, some with groups of friends and others with Amazon couples looking to spend some romantic time with each other. There was also a wide variety of flowering plants around, which added to the aesthetic beauty of the area, and some fruit trees and bushes with berries, which the women could pick for a snack.
There was a beautiful waterfall at the far end of the lake, coming off a 100-foot-high cliff. There was a stone walkway on each side of the waterfall for the women to go up and down from that cliff. Some women go up there to have their picnics beside the top of the waterfall, while many others go there because they enjoy the challenges of diving off that cliff into the lake and showing off their skills to each other. The bottom of the waterfall hit a stone walkway that had been built there many centuries ago for the women to walk through under the fall. It was put there because the waterfall was not strong enough to hurt anyone but was enough for the women to have a nice little shower. They could swim in the lake to get clean, but some preferred the relaxing pressure of a waterfall shower.
"Just as beautiful as I remember it being," said Diana.
"It's only the second most beautiful thing on the island," Artemis said as she gave Diana a sexy look.
Diana just smiled in appreciation of that comment. She was still very attracted to Artemis, but she was with Steve now, and she was trying to be faithful to him. She had already cheated on him numerous times with Superman and other members of the Justice League. Lately, she realized that she needed to focus more on her relationship with Steve and decided to be more faithful to him, no matter how much her sexual desires tell her otherwise.
"Where are our old friends?" Diana sked.
"Right over there," Artemis said as she pointed to the left.
Diana saw a group of five naked women sitting by the lake on a picnic blanket. They walked over to their old friends, greeted each one of them, and before they joined them at their picnic, they both took off their clothes to be naked with them. Diana hadn't been with a naked woman in a long time that didn't end in sex. Today, she just wanted to spend some time being naked with her old friends.
One of the most interesting things about the lake was a particular law built around it. When entering the lake, all women must be naked. Even when it was just to wash your feet, you had to be naked. Although it was not an official law of Themyscira, no one is sure it was ever a law. It was more of a long-standing legend that the Olympic goddess Hera had put in place about the lake. Since no one was sure if it was true or not, just to be safe, no woman in centuries has ever entered the lake, or even spent time around it, with any piece of clothing on them.
The group of women were having fun eating, drinking wine, and telling jokes. They got Diana caught up on everything that had been happening lately on the island, and she told them some fun stories about the outside world that intrigued them. One of them, Tara, who was new to the group, kept flirting with Diana, which made her girlfriend, Leyla, an old friend of Diana's, very jealous. Diana didn't want to cause trouble for those two lovers, so she didn't flirt back.
During this time, Diana and Artemis couldn't help but steal glances at each other. Although they have admired each other's bodies for years, they have never seen each other naked. Diana was a tall, olive-skinned brunette with a perfect hourglass figure. Artemis was just as tall, with long red hair and bigger breasts than Diana's. It had been years since they had seen each other naked, and it was bringing back memories of their time together as lovers. Diana wondered if Artemis had a girlfriend; besides Diana herself, she was the most sought-after bachelorette on the island.
