Page 102 of Poseidon's Island Flower

“He’s going to destroy the island,” I murmured. “He’s going to flush everyone out.”

“Who is going to destroy the island? We need to get out of here. This looks like it will be bigger than the last time this happened. Come on, Lani, we gotta get out of here.”

I shook my head as she pulled on my arm. She struggled, unable to move me.

“I have to go out there. Zeus, watch her.”

“Lani! No! What are you doing?” Zeus grabbed Candice from behind, his tall form engulfing her tiny body. She tried to wiggle free, flailing and kicking with her arms and legs until she chomped down on his forearm.

Zeus growled, a gold like substance trickling from his arm instead of the crimson red.

“Ew, are you diseased? Get Lani, she’s going to drown! She has some sick obsession with drowning!”

Zeus mumbled in her ear.

“You guys are not gods!” Candice shouted at Zeus. “You have a god-like complex, but you aren’t one. Did you hear what he said? Lani! Get back here!”

I heard her cries until they were drowned out as I opened the sliding door. I didn’t have time to waste. The wind was howling, and the darkened sky filled with lightning as I crossed the beach in just a silk sheet.

Do I walk out to him? Do I wait on the original shore line? How was he to know I was okay?I knew, however, that I wouldn’t drown, that I wouldn’t be washed away because he would come get me. Right?

Vacationers ran away from the ocean. Lifeguards yelled for everyone to back away and seek higher ground. I walked reverently to the ocean; no one else dared to come this close to the growing wave.

As I held the sheet tighter, I simply called Poseidon’s name, but no god emerged from the sea. I put on a determined face, continuing to call his name louder and louder over the roar of the wind.

The impending wave lurched forward. It was taller than twelve stories, enough to push water over the sand and a mile inland. I stood there, waiting, letting the wind curve the sheet around my body until the wave arrived.

In this same spot I stood when the ocean took me into its clutches, I had flashbacks of my near drowning, of being saved and introduced to a god that would be my forever.

I smiled.

Instead of fearing death, I embraced the new life I was going to have with Poseidon. Candice would understand. I knew she would.

Because now everything seemed right, especially seeing Zeus and his fondness toward my friend.

So, I waited until the wave’s curl hovered over my body. I whispered Poseidon’s name one last time, and the wave stilled. Tiny droplets dripped onto my forehead as I gazed up at the curvature.

“Poseidon, I know you’re in there.” I beamed.

Within seconds, Poseidon parted the wave and strode out wearing full armor—gold chest plates, a large trident, and the meanest scowl on his face I’d ever seen. Once he took in my appearance, an audible sigh left him, and I ran toward him into his embrace.

The wave hovered over us, and an army of his subjects walked through the wave and stormed the beach. They all held their own spears and had armor on. Their faces were filled with determination I’d never seen before.

Zeus, Candice, and Hermes stayed in the doorway of the bottom floor suite. Candice stood wide eyed, her body unmoving as she took in the scene.

“Who took you?” Poseidon hissed. “Did they let you go?”

I nodded, chuckling. “Zeus panicked and made some bad decisions. Candice was worried, I haven’t talked to her in days. I should have known better than to not contact her.”

Poseidon looked around my head, scowling at Zeus and Hermes. They both lowered their heads, backing away.

“I’ll deal with them soon,” he said ominously.

“You came for me,” I joked, trying to change the subject.

“Did you honestly think I wouldn’t?” he growled.

My thighs pinched together, feeling the vibration of his growl. I could feel my pussy crying in want of this god. His nostrils flared, and he wrapped his arm around my waist tightly. I knew he wanted me, too.
