They follow Luna

“The ship is lost,” Richard concluded with remorse.

“There HAS to be something we can do!” Aria thought desperately, “All those people…”

“I’ve seen these things tear apart a man in seconds, there’s no help for them,” Abe said.

“Then what do we do?” Aria asked.

“I know a safe place,” Luna replied. They turned to her. She hovered majestically in the water like a goddess, hair flowing with the current, tail wistfully wagging to keep her steady.

“Take us,” Abe said.

“Take my hand,” Luna said, reaching out. Abe took it and she gestured to Aria and Richard to do the same. They all clung onto her body. Richard could feel his skin warm. Partly due to the warmth of the mermaid’s body and party from the embarrassment of being practically naked while doing it. He could sense Aura’s feelings as well, through Luna’s mindlink. Aria shot another cold thought at Richard for enjoying the feel too much. Richard winced, but as he felt further, he noticed that Aria was having similar feelings to him. The slight embarrassment, the thrill of flesh to flesh contact with the beautiful naked mermaid… Aria sensed Richard’s realization and immediately went red with embarrassment. Richard didn’t know that he could feel ‘red’. He pondered if it was just what he related the color to be as a feeling.

Before the two could delve further into their awkward feelings and insecurities, Luna swam off. They clung tightly, no longer lingering on their prudence because she was moving at insane speeds! It took all their strength to hold on. Luna was being cautious to get away from the danger as quickly as possible, while still being able to sense whether her passengers were able to hold on. They travelled well away from the Orient Eclipse and even deeper into the ocean depths. Things became dark. Richard and Aria could not see, but Luna was able to sense where she was with internal sonar.

They travelled long and far, into the darkness of the abyss. The couple were certain they would be crushed by the pressures of the ocean or dangerously chilled to the bone if it were not for Luna’s presence. Her aura seemed to protect them from the dangers of the deep.

Finally, they could make out lights below them. They were luminescent corals and creatures that lit up the floor like streetlights. Hues of green and blue glowed effervescently, making it seem like they were coming in for a landing at an airport. The closer they came, the more apparent that they were approaching an underwater city! It was populated by other mermaids too! They swam up to greet the new arrivals.

“Greetings!” thought out one of the girls. She was equally as beautiful as Luna, with long blonde hair.

“Are these outsiders?” gasped another mermaid. “I’ve never met outsiders before!”

“Oh, look at this one! What is this here?” asked a third mermaid, reaching for Richard’s cock.

“Ah, that’s not for touching!” Richard yelped, reeling back, but the mermaid already had her hand around it. Richard mentally reeled from Aria’s next mental jab, but she was being molested by the mermaids as well.

“Oh, this one’s legs are so smooth,” declared the blonde mermaid.

“Oh.. thank you…” Aria said.

“It’s so long too…” the mermaid observed, running her hand all the way up Aria’s thigh. “Oh… this spot is sensitive to you?” she asked, rubbing her fingers over Aria’s slit.

“Ah…” Aria moaned in her head. She felt it didn’t seem fair that they could sense her feelings. Still, she did not complain when the mermaid went further, sliding her fingers deep into Aria’s opening. “Ah….” was all Aria could respond with.

Richard was faring no better. The mermaid with his cock had naturally grasped her fingers around it like a handle and instinctively began to pump. Richard groaned as the other mermaids sensed other sensitive spots to pleasure their new guests. The mermaids clustered around Aria and Richard, sucking their nipples, licking their limbs and rubbing their genitals while Luna and Abe gave them space. They had landed on what appeared to be a palace made out of coral, in the landing of the uppermost tower. By this time, they were flocked by at least a dozen mermaids, every one of them was as nubile and nude as their host.

Luna hovered with Abe to the side as the mermaids inspected Aria and Richard. It seemed Luna had staved off the mermaid advances on her man. The others respected her wish and kept their attention on the free couple. Richard and Aria found themselves next to each other, being gratified by a gang of merfolk. Aria took Richard’s hand and it felt that if they were doing it together, it would be alright. Richard relaxed and let the ladies pleasure him to climax. He felt Aria shudder next to him, feeling the orgasm burst through her mind as well. They both gripped tight and enjoyed the sensations.

There was a gasp by the mermaid that was giving Richard the handjob.

“This one has seed!” she cried out.

The others looked on with sudden interest as Richard’s cum floated unassumingly in the water.

“Wait, what does that mean?” Richard wondered to everyone.

“He can be your progenitor!” Announced the blonde mermaid to Luna.

“Wait, what?” Aria asked.

Instead of explaining, the mermaids opened their minds to the couple. Richard had noticed something that he found odd when they arrived, but this confirmed it. There were no mermen. In fact, the merman was a myth. The mermaids procreated with the sperm of other species, which in their environment usually meant fish, but many generations of fish breeding led to Sirens, the creatures that attacked the Orient Eclipse. Luna and her mates were purebred, retaining human features and their youth until ****. When one reached the age of her spawning cycle, she would venture out into the edge of the ocean to seek out a human male to give her his seed.

Luna had sought to breed this way and had met Abe in the process. She learned much of human society from her stay with him and fell in love with both the human world and the man she was with. She was supposed to bear his child and would instinctively leave to prepare for her offspring. She wanted to stay with Abe, so used contraceptives to prevent her natural cycle and prolonged her stay until that fateful night that they were separated.

Because Luna had stayed so long in the overworld, she had become the eldest stateswoman of the tribe based on her knowledge and understanding. The other mermaids looked up to her and followed her lead. Still, her breeding cycle had come back again and she was at the end of her lifespan. She wanted to mate and perpetuate her species before she went. She had attempted to find a new mate but due to the pandemic, no boats were traveling the waters that she could interact with.

“Well, Abe is here with you now, Luna!” Richard pointed out, “You can be happy together down here!”

“I can’t say that it wouldn’t be nice… raising little ones together…” Abe said, “I’d be willing to try, but I’m an old man… I don’t know if I still can give you a child…”

Luna looked to Abe forlornly. The true tragedy was that once she bore her children, she would lose her life. That essence would be passed down to her spawn.

“Oh,” Abe said. “But we just found each other again…” He would be tearing up if they weren’t already underwater. The two embraced and Richard and Aria could feel their warmth and love. Another thought struck Abe. “If you really want to bear children, I think you should use Richard’s seed. He’s younger and more virile than I am!”

“Hold on,” Richard interrupted, “Don’t I get a say in this?”

“And me?!” Aria added.

“Richard, it’s her final wish… I most likely will be shooting blanks. The one thing I never gave my wife was a child, this will be my last chance…” Abe pleaded.
