Chapter Eight: The Tale of the Merchant and the Genie, Part Two

"Great Genie, I am one of three brothers. When our father died, he left each of us the sum of one thousand gold coins. I used my share of the inheritance to begin a business, while the other two decided to journey into foreign lands to seek their fortune."

"I worked very hard over the years, sacrificing most worldly pleasures for the sake of my financial security. And though I lived frugally, my business prospered, and my wealth eventually increased to the sum of three thousand coins."

"Then one day, one of my brothers returned. I hardly recognized him at first, for his clothes were ragged and torn, and he was covered in dirt. I asked what had happened to him, and he confessed that he had squandered his money in hedonistic pursuits, and was now destitute and alone. Because he was my brother, and I took pity upon him, and gave him one thousand coins from my own coffers, allowing him to establish a humble business of his own."

"A year later, my other brother returned. He, too, had wasted his fortune on luxury, having spent his nights with his mouth upon a bottle of wine or upon some young girl's nipple. And now that his money was gone, he had returned here to beg for my assistance. My own business had prospered this year, having earned a profit of one thousand coins, which I gave to my second brother in order to establish himself as a merchant."

"For a time, the three of us were content, though my brothers still used much of their money unwisely. They did not understand how I, who had so much wealth, refused to enjoy the comforts of luxury. They advised me to find a woman, so that I might have pleasure from her and perhaps start a family. But I did not have time to look for a wife; my work demanded too much attention, and there was little room for anything else - especially now that my brothers had consumed a large part of my savings."

"My two siblings eventually grew restless again, and longed to travel out into the world. They urged me to go with them, but I refused, saying that I needed to attend to my work. They continued to plead with me, saying that I needed to enjoy life while I was still young. At last, I agreed to go with them - particularly because there were trade opportunities abroad, and that the journey would allow me to supervise the spending habits of my brothers."

"So we set forth, and journeyed far by land and by sea. During the course of our travels, I was blessed with great fortune. For every coin I invested, I received ten in return. My brothers were careless with their own money, and though I attempted to dissuade them, they often found their way into the brothels and whorehouses, where they buried their cocks inside countless unknown women. They sometimes tried to convince me to join them, and there were times when I was truly tempted, for it had been a long time since I had known the pleasure of a woman's sex. But I was able to resist the temptation, and politely decline their invitations. Then, when they were gone, I would fervently stroke my own cock to satisfy my lustful needs."

"There came a day when our ship weighed anchor at a thriving port town. I wandered out in search of a spice merchant who might be willing to trade with me. While walking through the streets, a young woman approached me and asked if I needed directions. She was dressed in humble, dirty clothes - but beneath her unkempt hair, I saw bright intelligent eyes, and a pleasing smile. I greeted her, and found that she was well-spoken, despite her peasant appearance. When she learned of my next destination, she asked if she could accompany my brothers and me on our voyage, for she wanted to visit her family. She said that she had no money to pay me, but I told her that money would not be necessary, and that she was welcome to come with us."

"Having this young lady as my companion proved to be quite beneficial, for she was able to direct me to guide me through the town and even provide me with advice when trading with certain vendors. I invited her to have dinner with me, and we enjoyed a most pleasant evening together."

"When my brothers saw her and learned that she was to be our guest during the ocean voyage, they were greatly pleased. I immediately guessed their lustful intentions, and warned them not to take advantage of the young girl, or I would take her with me and travel separately, leaving them to their own meager resources. My brothers reluctantly agreed not to seduce the young woman, but I could see the hunger in their eyes whenever she came before them. If I had not been there, they would have had her clothes off and her legs parted as soon as the coastline was gone from view."

"The woman had overheard my words, and she gratefully thanked me for protecting her. I told her that I would see to her safety, and that she need not worry about my cock-hungry brothers."

"As we traveled across the sea, I began to spend more and more time with the girl. She told me stories of many different places she had seen, and I discovered that she had explored quite a bit of the world. She did not talk much about her past, however, and I suspected that someone had perhaps mistreated her and reduced her to her penniless condition. I was curious to know more about her, for she was fascinating to me. She might not have been the most beautiful woman in the world, but she was quite clever, and I delighted in conversing with her."

"My brothers became jealous of the friendship that was growing between myself and this charming girl, for they had never known a woman's friendship - only her physical intimacy. They became increasingly distrustful of the penniless woman, who was eloquent and full of wit; they preferred girls who were complacently empty-headed. I sensed their growing resentment, but carelessly decided to ignore it."

Then one night, before we sat down to eat dinner, my brothers secretly added a narcoleptic drug into the food, and the woman and I fell fast asleep shortly after our meal."

"The next thing I remember was waking up on a sandy beach. The woman was lying beside me, still fast asleep. The ship was nowhere in sight, and I realized that my brothers had taken it along with all my wealth. I found myself stranded upon a deserted tropical island in the middle of the ocean, with no hope of rescue."

"For a moment I was desperate. What would we eat? What would we drink? How could we call for help? As my mind frantically diagnosed our dire situation, I glanced down at the woman lying beside me. Her eyes were still closed, and her chest rose and fell in a slow, steady motion. While my thoughts were in turmoil, I kept staring at her bosom, noticing how her breasts poked up from beneath their prison of mottled grey cloth. I was suddenly filled with the awareness that this was a female I was looking at, and the implications of that awareness began to work their way down to my cock. I felt a sudden urge to lean down and kiss her, but then her eyes fluttered open, and she sat up and looked around in confusion."

"I explained what had happened, and her eyes clouded with anger. She said that my brothers would pay for this misdeed with their lives, and she looked as though she meant to exact vengeance right then and there. I put my hands on her shoulders and urged her to be at peace, for we needed to keep our wits about us. But my wits unfortunately dissolved as I stared into those soft brown eyes of hers, and my hands did not leave her shoulders. We looked at each other for a moment, before I forced myself to let her go. I hastily got to my feet and went off to explore the island."

"There wasn't much to explore. Palm trees, a few rocks, and a whole lot of sand. I returned to the girl and reported my findings, admitting to her that our future looked very bleak. She simply smiled and shrugged. Her shoes had been flung inland, and her naked toes dug into the warm sand. She seemed strangely unconcerned about our desperate plight, and I began to wonder if she might not be mad. I told her so, and she simply laughed and advised me to take off my shoes, too."

"Unable to find a more useful occupation, I decided to take her advice, and soon my toes were digging into the sand right next to hers. We sat there for a while and just watched the waves crash into the sand in front of us. Though there were only inches between us, I began to wish that she was closer to me, for I longed to put my arms around her. As if reading my mind, she slid herself right next to me, so that our hips were almost touching. She asked me what I wanted most in the world. I thought for a moment, and said that happiness was what I wanted. She laughed and said that everyone wants happiness. She wanted to know what would make me happy. I thought about it some more, and I told her that I had always taken comfort in financial security. I had spent my life working - and though I had prospered, I sometimes felt empty inside. I recognized that there were important things missing from my life, but I tried to ignore those things and just continue my work. But now, now that I found myself doomed to perish upon this tiny island, all of my wealth meant nothing. The only thing that gave me comfort right now was the fact that I was not alone, and I told her so."

"I felt her eyes upon me, and I glanced at her to find that she was smiling. She leaned forward and gave me a quick kiss - and though her lips touched mine for just a second, the sensation felt wonderful. I stared at her, and she stared at me, and then she leaned forward again. We began to kiss - tentatively at first, but our mouths soon became bolder. Before long, we were kissing each other with great passion. I began to touch her, and I felt her small hands exploring my own body. Gentle caresses soon turned into hungry groping as we kissed and moaned, our hot tongues wrestling playfully. We laughed as the ocean waves began to lap at our feet, and I remember looking into her soft eyes and realizing that I was happy, in a way that I had never been happy before. Though we would probably starve to death on this island, the sheer pleasure of holding her in my arms was enough to fill my heart with joy. I told her this, and I thought it strange that I should be so happy in the face of such a dire situation, but she just kissed me again and told me not to worry. She said that we would not perish, but when I asked her how she could be sure of this, she just smiled mysteriously and began to take off her clothes."

"Any questions or worries that might have lingered in my mind were washed away when the last of her clothes slipped to the ground. And all I could do was sit there and gawk at her. Allah had truly blessed the world when he created the female body. My eyes roamed hungrily over every inch of her flesh, eagerly drinking in every sensuous detail. She saw the effect that her nudity was having on me, and she smiled and said that it was now my turn to disrobe. I obediently did away with my own garments, knowing that I was not much to look at. But she smiled as she inspected my body - particularly the cock that was now fully erect with hunger for her."

"She lay down on top of me, and the feeling of her soft flesh covering mine was an indescribable pleasure. We resumed our passionate kissing, and I savored the sensation of her breasts pressing against my chest, her legs entwined with my own, her smooth belly weighing down on me with a satisfying warmth. I felt her long hair against my face as our lips touched again, and my hands reached up to caress the soft skin of her back. She broke our kiss and leaned forward a bit, pressing her breast against my face. I began to suckle the nipple that she offered me, my lips clamping upon the cool flesh of her succulent breast, my tongue eagerly lapping at her hardening tit stalk."

"While I was feasting upon her dangling breasts, I felt her hand snaking down my waist, reaching for my cock. Her fingers circled the hard flesh of my organ, and I moaned when she began to slowly stroke it. She maneuvered her hips until the head of my throbbing penis was rubbing against her moist labia, and I shivered from the erotic tickling sensation. Then, ever so slowly, she sank her body down upon my cock, impaling herself upon its rigid length. She moaned softly as my flesh snake squirmed up inside her hot pussy, and she just sat there for a moment with her eyes closed, basking in the sheer pleasure of a cock-filled cunt."

"Then she began to fuck me, her hips slowly rising up and sinking back down upon my erect penis. I watched her body with dazed amazement, for she was beautiful to behold. Her breasts wobbled erotically as she bounced up and down, and I was captivated by the changing expressions on her face as she pleasured herself upon my thick organ, which seemed to throb in time to the rhythm of her squeezing pussy. My eyes fell to her writhing belly, and I put my hands on her swaying hips as she swiveled back and forth, grinding her lust-soaked crotch against mine. My hands caressed her ass cheeks as she began to ride me faster and faster, grunting and moaning with every rise and fall of her pussy upon my cock. Pretty soon she was in a frenzy, her hips wiggling rapidly as she desperately fucked herself onto my hot, rigid meat. After several minutes of vigorous friction, she threw her head back and gave out a low, guttural moan as her orgasm overtook her. Her pussy kept going, furtively enveloping my penis with its warm juicy flesh. Sex cream was oozing out of her cunt, coating my cock with slippery cum as she rode me all the way through her pleasure storm."

"When she had had enough, she collapsed upon me, and we lay there on the sand for quite some time, listening to the sound of the ocean. I realized now that this was what had been missing from my life: having a woman to share it with. I ran my fingers through her long hair, and gently kissed her lips. My hands cupped the soft flesh of her breast, and my finger made tiny circles upon her nipple, teasing it until it was stiff again. Then I slid my hands down her belly, massaging her tummy and the soft sides of her torso. I was completely intoxicated by her beauty, and could not get enough of her. She smiled appreciatively at my caresses, and said that she wanted me inside her again."

"She did not need to tell me twice. I climbed on top of her beautiful body and brought my hard cock to the greasy slit that awaited it. I slowly pushed my penis into her, gritting my teeth in pleasure as I felt it slide easily inside her juicy love tunnel. She moaned and whimpered as I began to screw her, and she toyed with her breasts as she watched my cock meat sink repeatedly into her sweet pussy. The sight of her sexy young body lying on the sand beneath me was more than I could bear, and I soon began to fuck her in earnest. My cock churned in and out of her frothy cunt flesh with a hungry need, and I knew that I would not be able to stop until I bathed her womb with my seed. She knew it too, and she helpfully spread her thighs apart as I speared my sex organ deep inside her steamy cunt. In and out, in and out, in and out, I pumped her faster and faster, harder and harder, and her body shook with my rapid dick thrusts. Her head thrashed from side to side, and she grunted in ecstatic agony as my hard cock plunged in and out of her gooey vagina."

"As I felt my orgasm draw near, my cock settled into a slow mating rhythm, pushing in and out of her receptive pussy with deep, measured strokes. Then the eruption began, and my throbbing penis spat burst after burst of hot semen into her womb. I continued to pump her until I was empty, and then I lay beside her again, savoring the feeling of having a woman beside me as I drifted off to sleep."

"When I awoke, I thought I must have been dreaming still, for I saw that my lover was clad in an elegant, shimmering gown. Her hair was well-combed, and there was not a hint of dust or dirt upon her skin. She then told me that she was actually a powerful genie princess. She had been looking for a man worthy of becoming her consort, and she had sensed that I was a kind and generous soul from the moment she met me. She wanted to know if I would marry her, and I agreed without hesitation."

"Then she said that she would now go out and sink the ship that had carried us here, burying my brothers beneath the sea for their wicked deeds. I pleaded with her to spare the lives of my brothers, however, for despite their cruel actions, I did not them to be slain. She reluctantly agreed, promising me that she would do nothing to them. She then embraced me and told me to hold her close, and I eagerly obeyed. Without effort, she lifted us up into the air and flew both of us back to my home. When we arrived, there were two dogs waiting there, and the princess told me that these were my two brothers, and that she had asked her sister to transform them into mongrels. They would not be changed back to their true form until ten years had passed, and in this way they would be punished for their cruel actions."

"So you see, great genie, that is why I am traveling here with these two dogs, who are actually my brothers. We are journeying to the house of my wife's sister, so that their enchantments can be reversed. Once they are human again, I will give them one thousand gold coins each, and I will bid them farewell forever. Then I will return to my beautiful wife, and we shall continue to live the rest of our lives in contentment, as we have done so these past ten years."

"That is indeed a wondrous tale," said the genie, "and I shall therefore grant you one-third of this merchant's life."

Then the third traveler came forward. "Great genie..."

"Let me guess," said the genie. "You have a story about that mule of yours, and you want one-third of this merchant's life if I judge the tale to be a satisfying one."

"Yes, great genie, that is truly my wish."

"All right, fine. Let's hear it."
