On her knees Nicola listened to the nymph whispering her name letting it roll off her lips:<br/><br/>"Halie"..Nicola was fairly breathless after uttering the name as if just the mere sound of it held passion.<br/><br/>Nicola's hand rose to caress the inner thigh of this goddess' handmaiden. Her eyes gazed on Halie's body adoringly nodding her head in agreement when Halie said 'You must do as I say.'<br/><br/>Nicola felt she would follow her to the ends of the earth.<br/><br/>As Halie moved away the warmth that emanated from her left Nicola feeling almost bereft the loss of her presence was so great. Nicola's eyes followed every movement of Halie watching as she climbed the grass, her eyes a light caress over Halie's body..<br/><br/>"Kiss, kiss your enemy as though she were your lover"<br/><br/>Nicola's reverie halted and her head snapped up! She looked at Halie and then at Voleta and then back at Halie. It tore at her heart and at the molten warmth that flowed through her body causing her to want and need to caress and taste the juices of the lovely nymph's passion but this was too much!<br/><br/><em>'Kiss my enemy! Is she crazy!! Is she out of her mind!!</em><br/><br/>Nicola stood.<br/><br/>"Surely you are mistaken! This woman has plotted my death on so many occasions I cannot count and you wish me now to kiss her as I would a lover? You are MAD and so is your goddess! Nike would NEVER agree to this and I follow her orders and her wishes! Aphrodite wishes to wreak havoc yet again and I will not be a part of this!"<br/><br/>Nicola stood and stepped out of the water. The draw she felt from Halie was so strong that she moaned almost in pain at her defiance her whole body ached- every pore- to go over to Halie and kiss her soft lips and let her hand roam over the beautiful skin. So Nicola stood there - in pain- in defiance- and in need and want the power and lure of which she had never felt.
