Previously in Frankengeld. The cure for the wolfwere has been created, and the Elixir of pleasure rests waiting its test. But the Priapus Potion must be delivered to the Lord who commissioned it, and tested. Una has offered her body to Lord Mutunus for the test and is now impaled on his monstrously long and fat phallus. And a woman has grasped Damion about his waist.
Now read on...
"Mistress Gorgona," said Mutunus. "He is my doctor, and you will not harm him."
With the hissing of snakes in my ears and delicate female arms reaching around my chest I stood, stock still, hoping that Mutunus was truly Lord in this house.
One advantage of being taught the classical languages is that you inevitably learn the stories that go with the ancient Greek and Roman cultures. One in particular now came to mind. How the god Poseidon seduced one of the three Gorgon sisters, Medusa, in Athena's temple. Athena - having a soft spot for him - and annoyed at the blasphemy, cursed the three sisters instead of telling off Poseidon. Made them hideous, with serpents for hair, and the ability to petrify any who looked on them. Perseus, with a little help from the gods, killed Medusa. That left Stheno, the Strong One and Euryale, the Far-Roamer. The arms enfolding me did not look very strong, and Carlsbruck is quite a distance from Greece, so I judged I was about to become an item of garden statuary courtesy of Euryale.
Diplomacy was needed here. I spoke, in my best Greek, "I always felt it was unfair what Athena did to you and your sisters."
There was a hiss behind me, as if I had agitated a nest of snakes. I pressed on, hoping that Lord Mutunus' instruction would save me.
"Euryale," I said. "Medusa was the victim in the tale as I heard it. She was the seduced, not the seducer. Athena had no right to curse her. And even less right to extend the curse to you and your sister, whose only crime was to support your sibling."
As Mutunus lifted Una off his phallus and threw her face down over his throne, ramming his monstrous member deep into her again and again, I found myself being turned around to face Euryale. Here I go, I thought, I'm about to become a permanent exhibit in this castle. I just hope they let Una go when Mutunus has finished copulating with her, if she survives the experience.
I squeezed my eyes tight shut, but I couldn't stop my ears which were filled with the soft hissing of snakes, and the louder screams of my assistant having her guts rearranged. I was now facing Euryale and her breasts were pressed up against my chest, ordinarily a nice sensation that presaged wonderful events. She ran her fingers over my face, the way a blind person might read a stranger's face. Ironic, since I was the one trying desperately to be blind. Then she tilted my head down and whispered in my ear.
"I will not harm you," she said, in Greek. "You may open your eyes in safety."
Her voice was gentle and, dare I say, passionate. I was overcome with the desire to look on an immortal. Foolish I know, but I had always been easily swayed by a woman's voice.
I opened my eyes slowly and carefully. I was looking down her voluptuous body. She was wearing a robe of finest linen, so sheer that it was almost see-through. Two magnificent breasts, a rounded stomach, narrow waist and broad hips led to beautifully rounded thighs and a dark mass of hair on her sex. Two delicate fingers under my chin lifted my head.
She was beautiful, if you ignored the snakes and the strange goggles over her eyes. The rest of her face was finely proportioned with high cheekbones, a slim, aquiline, nose and full red lips. The goggles were designed to fit flush to the face, with no side gaps, and the glass was black instead of clear. And, presumably, they were the reason that I wasn't now a garden statue. The snakes were slender and their tiny heads were all looking at me, but they were swaying gently and did not look as if they were about to bite.
Studying the goggles pushed back the fear, a little, as I examined them. Masterpieces of the craftsman's art, they implied that Euryale had met and interacted with someone in a very ordinary way. Like Helena and I with Hans the glassblower. Were these things the work of Hephaestus, smith to the Greek gods? Or was it some more mundane person who had crafted them? In much the same way I had brewed the cure for Lord Mutunus.
I could tell Euryale was studying me from the angle and movements of her head. Then she spoke. "I see some fear, but that is usual," she smiled. "But I also see desire, which is very rare."
She grasped my hands and walked backwards to some double doors leading from the throne room. Deftly using her backside to open them she pulled me, her helpless slave, into a side chamber. Here there was a large and luxurious bed.
"Fucking good idea!" shouted Mutunus. "We'll join you, Mistress Gorgona, I'm just getting into my stride with this one. And that's not something I was expecting to say today!"
Euryale continued to pull me and soon she had her back to the bed. She released my hands and then the shoulder clips of her dress. It slithered to the floor to pool at her feet. Then her delicate fingers were undressing me. I made no resistance, not wanting to anger this deadly creature. It would be all too easy for her to remove the goggles.
Mutunus threw Una onto the bed. She fell like a child's rag doll and lay groaning. Her mouth was slack and her tongue lolled out. Drool dripped onto the sheets. Her pudenda was red and her vagina gaped slightly open, her pubic hair was splattered with her vaginal juices that had been lathered into a cream-like substance. I had never seen a woman so thoroughly ravished before, and only read about it once.
In earlier times the city of Venice was happy to have courtesans openly ply their trade, the rich young noblemen taking advantage of their charms. But some men became very possessive of a particular lady of the streets and woe betide her if she betrayed him with a rival. Her punishment was called the Trentuno. Thirty-one men of low status would be recruited by the nobleman who then orchestrated her gang rape. Not only was this a physical and emotional ordeal, but it destroyed forever her status as a courtesan exclusively for the noble classes. In the description I had read of one such poor victim she looked very much like Una looked now.
"Are you alright, Una?" I asked.
She muttered something and I crawled onto the bed so as to be able to hear more clearly. Euryale hung onto my trousers and, as I crawled, they were removed. Then the gorgon pursued me onto the bed and rolled me onto my back.
"Yuss maaaster," groaned Una. "Ay amm well." Then she gained a little strength and waved her arms at Mutunus who was approaching with his phallus stuck out like a lance. It was like a battle in elder times, the ugly knight about to joust, except that his target seemed anxious to be pierced. He clambered onto the bed in an ungainly manner and presented his weapon. Una grabbed at the head and steered it towards her gaping vagina, muttering, "Oh fuuuk mee, tayke me, I waan't mooore."
Euryale grasped my thighs and licked my penis. Her snakes touched my skin and it tingled to their touch, most unexpected. Then she opened her mouth and I could see pearly white teeth for a moment before she swallowed my member. The sensation was incredible. Next to me Una was being impaled again. She threw her head back, gasped, and her hand, which was resting on my upper arm, gripped me hard. She took short, sharp, breaths as Mutunus pushed and then she was moaning continuously as he started to thrust.
