The Lamia?s Downfall

[admin]

Backstory: Samarth is a half-serpent and half-man (formerly called a Lamia) who keeps to himself in his forest until an audacious human named Leroy caught his attention. As any Lamia would think upon encountering a human--it was just a meal. Nothing more. Strangely, Samarth found himself fascinated by this peculiarly enticing human and faces a tough decision. Should he just eat this gorgeous hunk of meat right away or should he play with Leroy before he devours him????????????-"What is that unearthly stench?" Samarth growled, his lower part coiling around his favorite tree.His nostrils flared and his eyes dilated as he sniffed a faint scent of...human.Delectable human flesh.He licked his lips, his forked tongue fluttering in the air. Along with the delicious human scent came a strong smell of burnt leaves, but it was so acute that Samarth couldn't help but grimace at the unbearable odor.Growing curious, he slithered down his perch, his golden-red scales shimmering under the dim lighting of the forest, the soft rasping of his underbelly barely audible amongst the leaves.There was the culprit: a human and something that he held between his fingers. The ends of it gleamed red hot and smoke trailed from it as the human flicked on it, the ashes falling onto the earth.Samarth recoiled, growing irritated. "How dare you soil this earth!" He bellowed at the clearing where the human was idling by, just begging to get gobbled up by the angry Lamia.The human, a male, jumped slightly and peered into the area where only the lamia's head poked out."Dude, what are you talking about?" The male chortled, his deep voice muffled as he inhaled from the burning paper.Samarth's nose wrinkled and his tongue flicked out to taste the air again.The human reeked of mind-altering substances and a surprisingly juicy scent.This could be my best meal yet, Samarth mused, mentally counting down the months that he wouldn't have to feed again. He will be sufficient for at least six months.The human, who was roughly six feet tall, casually puffed from the rolled-up paper, inhaling deep and exhaling through bursa escort bayan (https://elitescorthatun.org/category/bursa-escort/bursa-escort-bayan/) his teeth slowly."It reeks," Samarth hissed flatly, eyeing the suspiciously calm human with a harsh glare."What? You never smoked weed before?" the male exclaimed, genuinely shocked, his eyes widening towards the seething Lamia."What in the Gods' world is that?" Samarth answered, flatly."Oh, jeez, you don't even know what weed is?" The human snickered, his teeth gleaming as his lips widened into a devious smirk.The light caught on the pearly glimmers of his teeth and Samarth eyed him with disgust, internally shuddering from the human's daring disrespect.The human's eyes caught Samarth and they both stared at each other through the considerable distance.The male squinted his eyes and tilted his head slightly in curiosity, blue eyes so brilliant that it resembled sapphires meeting Samarth's own pale, light green eyes.From this distance, the human's poor eyesight would not be able to see the sharp, thin pupils that the Lamia possessed, pupils resembling those of a snake or a serpent. All the human could probably see from the shadows of the forest was the Lamia's head?and it was a sight to behold.Lamias were all born with unnatural, almost painful beauty and they were all unique in their looks. Samarth, aware of his own looks,*slithered slightly forward, his serpent eyes still holding the ignorant human.The wind blew softly at the long, chestnut brown waves of the Lamia, long, flowing strands that landed neatly over his broad, defined shoulders and muscular pecs.The human continued holding his stare, his sapphire eyes unflickering as he continued to boldly stare at the supernatural entity."So are you going to not answer my question?" The male drawled, inhaling from the diminishing roll of paper.The silence was broken, but his direct stare wasn't. It seemed like the human didn't blink at least once, just appraised him with those startlingly bright eyes.The Lamia's tail flicked in an agitated manner against the görükle escort (https://elitescorthatun.org/category/gorukle-escort/) bush, but he was slightly reluctant to reveal himself.This human was too bold, so carefree in his environment?unaware of his impending doom."Anyways, my name is Leroy; what's yours?" The human with the new name continued, unfazed by the serpent's stony silence. His eyes twinkled in what looked like mirth as he waited expectantly for the Lamia's response.The Lamia was a little bit chagrined, but he humored the interesting human anyways. "You may call me Samarth, the rarest of all Lamias," he declared imperiously, his chest puffing up in pride.The human-Leroy-wrinkled his dark brows in a puzzled way and then he laughed, smoke billowing out of his mouth like a puffing chimney in a wintery morning."Sam? I'll call you Sam," he chuckled, amusedly."Samarth," the Lamia corrected sternly, his eyes narrowing into slits.This human was playing a dangerous game?downgrading his given name so nonchalantly."Sam? Sammy," the human continued gleefully.He had to know that it was a bad idea to rile a Lamia, especially one that was viciously territorial and not only that?hungering for human flesh.First, I'll coil him with my body and constrict him until every part of his bones crackles, until he has lost all the oxygen from his limbs. Then, I'll wait until he loses consciousness and I'll devour him alive. The serpent smiled to himself, proud of his ingenious plan."Well, don't be a stranger. Come here and I'll share the blunt," Leroy called out, abruptly shattering the hungry Lamia's reverie.An invitation to get eaten? Such a peculiar human, Samarth mused, delighted yet concerned at the same time. Samarth smirked, his sharp fangs starting to descend in anticipation. This must be the gods'*tribute to me, he thought, in malicious glee. His tail flicked excitedly, and he slowly slithered out, his heavy but lithe body flexing over the fallen leaves on the earth.His golden-amber body gleamed under the dim light, his individual scales flexing with his movements. The leaves crackled softly under his belly, and he emerged completely from the hidden area, finally exposing himself to the unsuspecting human.At first, the human was oblivious to the lower, scaly half of the stranger but after a minute of staring at him, he burst out laughing. He laughed so hard he started to cough, his tears running down his cheeks.The laughter was so sudden and unexpected that Samarth froze, confused. Why is this human laughing?The human wiped his tear away, still snickering to himself. He flicked a slim finger across his forehead, brushing away his dark strands of hair. His sapphire eyes swept up and down Samarth's physique, brilliant eyes following the muscled, golden torso of the Lamia, then trailing down and staring openly at his lower part which shimmered with a gorgeous hue of reddish gold, almost a reflection of a sunset."Wow," Leroy breathed, his sapphire eyes fixated on Samarth's entire body. He inhaled again from his blunt, gawking unapologetically. "Man, this weed is something else. This is some good shit," he exclaimed, pleased, grinning from cheek to cheek."What are you waiting for? Come and smoke with me, you won't regret it,"* said the oblivious human who clearly had denial issues.Samarth, still frozen, slowly smiled and started to glide towards him.He will definitely regret it.????????????Leroy blinked slow and hard, unable to rip his stare away from this dude who literally came out from the bushes. The strong weed must have messed his mind up and now he was having hallucinations.At least, that's what he told himself.He heard stories, of course. People were seeing rainbow unicorns and vampires with an insatiable appetite and real-life dinosaurs...so why not a half-snake and half-man? It was normal. Strange was the new normal. Leroy shrugged it off, watching in fascination as the snakey part of the new friend he made slither towards him.He always had an interest in reptiles, snakes in particular. He even had a beautiful albino boa and just looking at the half man and half serpent made him suddenly miss his little munchkin. Leroy had to admit?this dude was gorgeous.The bone structure and facial attributes of his human part were stunning: long, brown locks that curled at the edges, his narrow jaw that accentuated his full lips, the eyes ? a light, hazel green which revealed vertical pupils, reminding Leroy of his pet.
