MATED TO MY BESTIE'S ALPHA DADDY
The water begins to glow.
A soft blue light emanates from the depths of the pool, rising up around me, surrounding me in a cocoon of warmth. The cold fades, replaced by something gentle and soothing. As Xena's chanting grows louder, the glow intensifies and the water surges around me, vibrating and agitated.
"Surrender yourself," Xena says.
Before I can ask what she means, I feel it—a pull. A force dragging me down into the depths. I try to fight it, but the water is too strong. It wraps around me, pulling me under, pulling me down.
I open my mouth to scream, but water floods my lungs.
I drown.
