The Switch

THE SWITCH 13

PART THIRTEEN

 

 

Three
frightened, crying, young virgins lay tied to the sacrifice table in Ares
temple. The ritual, jeweled handled
sword was on the table off to the side as the god of war and his high priest,
Reif, began a chant that summoned lightening out of nowhere.

 

Ares
was, once again, back to his old tricks.
It had been two days since his twin had taken Tori from him and he had
never found out if she was able to get Cupid’s blood for the ceremony. Desperate in his need to acquire the extra
power he desired, he had returned to Ramel and stolen three virgins from the
village in the middle of the night. It
was his right to do so, he figured. He
had held up his end of the deal with three men. He was only taking what was rightfully his.

 

As
Reif held up the sword and the lightening struck it, it began to glow red,
pulsing like a heartbeat. Slowly, he
walked to the side of the sacrifice table and looked down at the three sobbing
ladies. He smiled wickedly as he raised
the sword high above his head. Ares
looked on in anticipation, ready to accept the power of his offering.

 

Suddenly,
the wooden double doors burst open.

 

“Stop. Please, stop.”

 

“Huh?”
Ares murmured. He held his hand up
indicating for Reif to wait. Ares
recognized the voice. It was Tori. She was running down the aisle leading to
the altar.

 

“Please
don’t kill them. You don’t need to kill them.”

 

“Tori,
is that you?” Ares said as he stood and
pushed the hood off of his head.

 

“Yes,
Master, it is I,” she said, kneeling and bowing her head to him. “I only have a
short time. I’m not supposed to be
here.”

 

“What
do you mean you only have a short time?
Explain yourself.”

 

Ares
walked over to her and took her hand to have her stand. He looked her over quickly and the embraced
her. He whispered so only she could
hear him. “I’m so glad your alive,
Tori. I wasn’t sure if you were going
to make it.” There was the sound of
general concern and caring in his voice.
The kinds of things that nobody ever saw in the war god, and he was sure
that the others in the room didn’t hear them now.

 

“My
Lord,” she said respectfully, “I only have a few moments. Please, can we talk privately?” Tori understood the image that the god
portrayed and she didn’t want to get all mushy with him in front of the others.

 

“As
you wish,” he said as he took her hand and they disappeared.

 

~*~*~*~*~

 

As
soon as they were in his chambers, Ares pulled her into his arms and into an
ardent kiss. His hands urgently moved
over her body and he pressed his cock, which seemed to have instantly gotten
hard the moment he saw her, against her pelvis. The passion between them grew in leaps and bounds, until finally,
Tori had to tear herself away from him.
She was panting, looking upon the god with much desire.

 

“Why’d
you do that? I was just getting
started,” Ares asked, disappointed.

 

“Ares,
oh Gods, you don’t know how badly I want to continue. But I can’t. I don’t have
time. I came only to give you this.” She pulled the bottle of Cupid’s blood from
her pouch around her waist and handed it to him.

 

“Is
this . . ?”

 

She
nodded. “Yes, Cupid’s blood. I was able to fill the bottle before he
stabbed me. You didn’t get it from me
when I came out of the vortex.”

 

“I
wasn’t really thinking much about it, at the time. You . . . were…”

 

Ares
was having a hard time telling Tori about the events that transpired after she
had been wounded. It would be admitting
that he had felt compassion for her, concern about her life. And that he had cared enough about her to actually
release her from his service in order to save her.

 

She
put her hand to his cheek. “I
know. You don’t have to say anything,
my Lord. Thank you!” she said softly
and then gently kissed his lips. “I’m
sorry, but I must go now.”

 

“Why,
you just got here?”

 

“Because
Ares said, the other Ares, that is, he said that because there is already a
Victoria in this realm, that it would be impossible for me to live here as
well.”

 

“You
didn’t seem to have any problems before.
What so different now?”

 

“The
wound.” She lifted her tunic and they
could see a scar forming. It was
getting bigger and redder, acting the opposite of healing.

 

“If
I stay here, the healing of my injury will reverse and it would only be a few
hours before I would die. You see, I
can’t stay here. As much as I want to,
it’s just impossible.” She had tears in
her eyes.

 

Ares
pulled her into another warm embrace.
“Don’t cry, my tigress. It won’t
do any good. And I want to remember you
with that fire in your eyes and that sexy smile of yours. Please.”

 

“Yes,
Master,” she sucked in her sobs and wiped an eye. She could already feel the pain of her wound kicking in.

 

Off
to the side, a faint light shimmered and Ares, God of Love, appeared in a
transparent, ghost-like image. He never
fully materialized and only reminded Tori that she was cutting it close and had
to return soon. She nodded in
acknowledgement and he disappeared.

 

Tori
stood in front of her beloved god with sadness in her eyes. She regretted having to leave him, but she didn’t
have any choice. She took both his hand
in hers and shook off her sorrow and smiled her best smile for the god.

 

“Well,
I guess this is it, then. Will you
release the virgins now that you have the potent stuff?”

 

Ares
smiled and shook his head, not surprised by her request. “Yes, Tori, I will return them to their
homes.”

”Thank you, my Lord.”

 

“And
I thank you, my little tigress. Cupid’s
blood should give me more than enough power to fight the light.”

 

“Will
you come visit me?”

 

His
smile left. “I don’t know, Tori. That may not be a good idea, right now. But we’ll see.”

 

“Well
then, will you at least send word that you have succeeded in defeating your
enemy? It would be nice to know that
all of this was for a good reason. I
mean, if I have to give you up, then I would like to know that it was worth it,
because right now, I’m feeling rather cheated here.”

 

“That,
I can do. I promise.” He smiled at her. “Are you getting on all right, being back home again?”

 

“Yeah,
I’m doing all right. I just miss seeing
you.”

 

“What
do you mean? You’ve got an exact
duplicate of me?”

 

“Ares,
it’s not the same.”

 

“What? Isn’t he treating you well?”

 

“Oh
sure! Too well. He’s entirely too nice. A pushover.
All I have to do is bat my eyelashes and he’s there massaging my feet or
peeling me a grape. It sucks. There’s no challenge.”

 

“Tori,
he’s the God of Love. How did you
expect him to be?” Ares was feeling
extremely jealous at the moment, but he refused to let on about it. Still, he had to find out how far they had
gone. “I’m sure he’s even a better
lover than I am!”

 

“HELL
NO!” she exclaimed. “Not even
close. He’s all lovey-dovey, soft and
gentle. He makes love. He doesn’t fuck. It’s nowhere near the same as it is with you. You make me scream for more, he makes me
fall asleep.”

 

Suddenly,
Tori bent over in pain. The wound had
begun to open and there was now blood on her tunic.

 

“Yo
go
got to go, before it’s too late.” He
took her in his arms one last time, and kissed her with all the emotion he was
feeling for her right then. It was a
kiss she would never forget, filling her mind and touching her body with all
kinds of wonderful sensations. She was
breathless when he finally released her.


 

“Good
bye, my sweet. I won’t forget what
you’ve done for me.”

 

“Good
bye, my Lord. My heart will always be a
slave to you, Master.”

 

She
disappeared.

 

 

~*~*~*~*~

 

Ares
re-entered the ceremony room, smiling victoriously. The three women were still tied to the table, squirming and
crying continually. Reif patiently sat
on one of the three stairs that led up to the altar.

 

“Untie
the girls, Rief. I’m letting them go.”

 

Rief
looked at his master unbelievingly, but did as he was told. When they were untied, Ares waved his hand
and sent them back home.

 

“Master,
why did you let the virgins go?”

 

“Because,
Reif, I have something much more powerful than virgin’s blood. I have the blood of a war god.” He held up the bottle in front of them and
gazed upon it like it held all the riches of the world.

 

~*~*~*~*~

 

That evening, Ares made a
quiet trip to the alternate universe to see his twin, the love god.

 

“Well, if it isn’t the
handsome god of war, himself. I must
say, you’re looking rather good tonight.
Have you come to see Tori?”

 

“No, I came to see you.”

 

“Me?”

 

“Yes. First of all I wanted to be sure Tori made
it back in time and the affects of her would had reversed again.”

 

“Yes, Tori’s fine. You can see for yourself if you . . .”

 

“No!” Ares interrupted. “I
don’t want her to know I’m here.”

 

“Why not?”

 

“Because I won’t be
back. It would be too much for us to be
together only once in a while.”

 

“Oh, you underestimate
her. She’s a strong lady. I’m sure she could handle it.”

 

“Perhaps, she could. That’s beside the point,” Ares growled.

 

“Then, what’s the problem?” Suddenly, the God of Love’s eyes went aglow
and that look of utter love found his face.
“Oh, I get it now. It’s you
who can’t handle seeing her only once in a while. You’re in love…”

 

“NO, I’m not!” Ares rudely
cut him off before he could finish the sentence. “I’m the God of War. I’m
not capable of having feelings like that.
I just don’t think it would be healthy for her.”

 

“Okay, dude. Whatever you say.” He smirked, knowing the truth about it.

 

“I’ve come to ask you to be
sure and take care of her. She’s
special, and she has a lot of potential of being a good leader one day. Your gods should consider allowing her to
take Cupid’s place. She would make an
excellent war goddess.”

 

“I hadn’t thought of
that. I’ll bring it up at the next council
meeting. Anything else?”

 

“Yes, there is one more
thing.” Ares paced the room, running
his hand through his hair, feeling frustrated with the situation.

 

“I’m listening.”

 

“She . . . she likes it
rough.”

 

Ares, GOL, looked
confused. “She likes what rough?”

 

“Sex, you fool! Sex!
She likes to be taken, to be told what to do. It brings out her passion.
She turns into a sexual animal.”
The memories of their previous couplings brought a smile to the war
god’s lips. “She said that you are a
gentle lover. It’s nice, once in a
while, but I know my little tigress.
She really likes it more hardcore, if you know what I mean.”

 

“Oh, yes. I know what you mean.”

 

“Do you think you can
handle that? I know it’s not in your
nature to be domineering and controlling, but could you make an exception in
this case, Ares?”

“My good looking war
god. Have you forgotten that I am the
God of Love? I am the most fantastic
lover in this realm,” he boasted proudly.
“I certainly didn’t get this way by making love to everyone in the same
way. How boring! No, each of my lovers
have individual needs, and I respond to those needs in whichever way fits
best. Believe me, I can get down right
nasty, if need be.”

 

The war god rolled his
eyes. “Okay, I believe you.”

 

“I just hadn’t picked up
those types of feeling from your beloved Tori.
She been a little down lately, which is quite understandable. She is very fond of you, as I’m sure you know. I mean, there aren’t too many mortals who
would freely give up their lives for the God of War, however good looking you
may be.”

 

Ares glared at the love
god, unsure if that was meant as an insult to him, or a compliment for
Tori. He shrugged. It didn’t really matter much anyway. The only thing he was concerned about was
that Tori was contented in having to stay in this realm. Even if it meant taking his twin as her
lover. At least she would not likely
forget him, or their short time together.

 

Ares, GOL slapped Ares, GOW
on the back. “Don’t worry! I’ll take good care of her for you.”

 

“You better. Or I’m holding you personally responsible
for anything bad that might happen. Got
it?”

 

The love god shook his head
and smiled. “I got it.”

 

The God of War disappeared
in a flash of blue and white light.

 

 

~*~*~*~*~

 

The following day, Ares,
God of Love, entered Tori’s room to wake her.
It seemed like every day she sunk deeper and deeper into
depression. Ares was determined to
bring her around, now that he had a bit of insight into what she liked, thanks
to the God of War.

 

He crawled on top of her,
bringing her out of her slumber with sexy little kisses, until she yawned and
opened her eyes.

 

“Good morning,
beautiful. Sleep well?”

 

Tori turned on her side,
her back now to the god.

 

“Fine, now go away and let
me be.”

“Oh, no, no, no. You owe me a bit of gratitude for saving
your life. And I’ve come to collect,”
he said as he pulled back the covers revealing her naked body. She didn’t budge.

 

“I thought I thanked you
the other night.”

 

“That was just a sampling,
my dear. You’re into me for life now.”

 

Tori sighed. “Oh,
please! I bet there are a thousand
willing women out there just waiting for you to make them happy. Can’t you go play with one of them and just
leave me alone?”

 

Suddenly, Tori found her
hands and feet bound to the bedposts.
She was on her back, spread eagle.
Ares thought himself naked and then straddled her chest. His hard cock only centimeters from her
mouth.

 

“No. Now shut up and suck
my cock, you bitch!” he growled.

 

Without any clothes, and
from the way he was acting, Tori didn’t know which Ares this was. Was it her war god? It sure didn’t seem like the sweet god of
love.

 

Ares narrowed his eyes at
her. “I said, suck it.” He
pushed his hard dick against her mouth.

 

Tori’s body began to
shiver. The god was demanding her to
perform and it turned her on completely.
She took his muscle into her mouth and looked up at his face as she did
so. He had a wicked smile and a raw
desire in his eyes she had not witnessed in the love god before.

She willingly devoured his
cock until he shot his load down the back of her at. at. He got off of her and though himself
dressed. He was in white leather, which
indicated to Tori just which god it really was. This is new, she thought.
I wonder what got into him?
And I hope it doesn’t leave anytime soon.

 

Ares kissed her, licking a
bit of cum from the corner of her mouth.
And then he announced, “I’ll be back later.”

 

“Hey, wait a minute. Aren’t you forgetting something?” She moved her wrists to show that he hadn’t released
her yet.

 

“No, I don’t think so. I rather like you in such a vulnerable
position. I’ll try not to be gone too
long.” And he disappeared.

 

“Damn you, Ares. LET ME GO!” she screamed into the air.

 

He had made her so horny
that she couldn’t stand it. “Ooww, just
wait until you get back, Ares. You’re
gonna get it. You’re gonna get it
good.” She smiled.

 

Now, this is FUN! she thought.
Perhaps being stuck here won’t be so bad after all.
