Chapter 10

The vacation continues, and as the amount of clothing decreases so do the overall inhibitions of the group.

Rapunzel looked around for the missing half of Cassandra’s bikini, but seeing no trace of it she looked back to her friend. “Cass, are you still wearing the other part of your bathing suit?” Cassandra said nothing, but the guilty look that passed over her face left no doubt as to what the answer was.

“Wait a second,” Eugene said, joining Rapunzel. He was holding his own bathing suit but hadn’t bothered to put it on yet. “The reason you’re so reluctant to come out of the water isn’t because you’re naked, but because you’re NOT naked?”

“You told us you’d do it,” Rapunzel told Cassandra, frowning. “You lied to us.” She wore a stern face but when Cassandra looked away in shame she gave a quick smile and wink to Eugene, letting him know her anger was just an act.

“I didn’t lie!” Cassandra said. “I never said I’d take everything off.”

“But you implied it. You misled us on purpose. Do you deny that?”

Cassandra just hung her head in admittance.

“I think some punishment is in order,” Rapunzel said. “Cass, out of the water. Now.” The princess’s tone of voice brooked no argument.

Those words, combined with the vow Cassandra had made, left her no choice. She obediently but reluctantly left the concealment of the water. She covered her breasts with both arms, hiding them from view, but her lower half was left fully exposed. And true enough, she was still wearing her bikini bottoms. Even in the full light of day, due to their colour it was difficult to tell where the bathing suit ended and skin began. No wonder neither Rapunzel or Eugene noticed it while they were in the water.

She stopped when she was about ten feet from the others. “What are you going to do to me?” she asked.

Rapunzel’s expression softened at the worried look Cassandra had. “Firstly, relax.” Cassandra looked at her, confused. “You know I would never force you to do something you really didn’t want to do. That being said, I think it’s about time we made an honest woman out of you.”

Cassandra’s eyes went wide and Eugene chuckled to himself at her words. While normally that expression would mean the woman was to be forced to marry whoever she just had sex with, Eugene knew that for Rapunzel, sheltered as she was for most of her life, it was just a phrase she had overheard and had no idea of its true meaning.

“Wh-what do you mean by that?” Cass stammered and glanced at Eugene, the only male present, blushing at the unintended implication.

“Just that we’re going to turn that little lie of yours into truth,” Rapunzel explained. “Lower your arms, Cassandra,” she said gently.

Cassandra gulped, then slowly brought her arms down to her sides. Her bare chest was now on full display, revealing large, firm breasts that held moderately sized areolae tipped with hard red nipples. Eugene’s dick gave a noticeable twitch in appreciation of the sight, though other than that stupid grin he’d been wearing all afternoon, the man it was attached to made no other indication as to what he thought.

“Thank you,” Rapunzel said. “And now for the bottoms.”

Cassandra’s heart was pounding, but she brought her hands up to her briefs and began to turn so she wouldn’t have to look at the others while she got naked.

“Stop,” Rapunzel ordered. Cass froze just as her thumbs had slipped under the fabric. “Face forward please.”

“But...”

“This is your punishment, Cassandra. If you had just taken them off when you said you would, we wouldn’t need to do this, but now we’re going to have to watch.”

Cassandra had never felt so embarrassed in her life. Yet despite that she still turned back around to face them. “Do I really have to do this?” she begged.

“You know what? I’ve got a better idea,” Rapunzel said, grinning. “I can see you’re having a hard time with this, so you don’t have to take it off.” Cassandra sighed in relief but Rapunzel wasn’t finished. “I’ll do it for you.”

“WHAT?” Cassandra nearly shouted. “How is that better?”

“Makes for a better punishment, don’t you think?”

Cassandra wanted to say something in protest, but just stammered as Rapunzel approached her. The princess slipped around her and unexpectedly embraced her from behind, wrapping her arms gently around Cassandra’s stomach and incidentally pressing her bare chest into the other woman’s back. They had hugged each other many times before but they were always wearing clothes then. Never before had they made such ... intimate contact. The feeling of Rapunzel’s nipple poking into her skin involuntarily sent shivers down Cassandra’s spine.

Rapunzel gently placed her chin on Cassandra’s shoulder and whispered into her ear. “Remember, we can stop if it’s too much. All you have to do is say something.”

Did Cassandra want them to stop? Of course she did! Rapunzel was naked! Eugene was naked, and with a massive hard-on pointing right at her! Cassandra herself was about to become just as naked as them! Less than twenty four hours ago such a scenario was inconceivable to her. This whole thing was insane!

Rapunzel released her and took a small step back and to the right. “Raise your arms, please. They’re in the way.”

Cassandra slowly raised her arms.

Rapunzel bent down so that her face was much closer to her goal. She reached up and hooked her fingers under the sides of Cassandra’s bathing suit. “You ready?” she asked.

“No,” Cassandra answered. Her face felt like it was on fire.

“Wasn’t talking to you.”

Like Cassandra, Eugene could hardly believe this was happening. Unlike Cassandra, he was thrilled beyond his wildest expectations. Not only was he about to see a gorgeous woman completely naked, but it was with the permission and even participation of his wife. With a smile he couldn’t get rid of no matter how hard he tried, he simply nodded and blatantly stared at the girls, eagerly waiting for whatever was going to happen next.

“Eugene?” Cassandra pleaded. She knew it was a fool’s hope, but tried anyway.

“Cass, if you think I’m going to say or do anything to put a stop to this, then you are sorely mistaken.”

As Rapunzel began to gently pull down on the bathing suit Cassandra sucked in a breath, but did nothing to stop the act. Her heart hammered in her chest as inch by torturously slow inch, her bathing suit was pulled lower and lower. After just a few seconds Cassandra wished Rapunzel would just yank the thing down and get it over with, like she did with Fitzherbert. Now that they’d reached this point she was sorely tempted to do just that herself and end the torment. But this was Rapunzel’s order, so she did nothing.

Eugene leaned in a little closer as her smooth pubic region came into view. Even though he was well outside of arm’s reach, she reflexively held her breath and clamped her legs closed to prevent her bathing suit from going any lower.

“Relax, Cass. Everything will be okay. Trust me,” Rapunzel said, trying to reassure her.

It took a little effort but Cassandra got her breathing back under control and relaxed her legs. The bathing suit was moving south again, and once it passed her calves Rapunzel sped things up and quickly brought it down to Cass’s ankles.

“Lift your feet.”

Cassandra did so, raising first her right foot, then her left, allowing Rapunzel to remove her bikini completely. Now she was truly, utterly naked. The desire to cover herself was strong, but she knew that if she did Rapunzel would just tell her to move her hands, so she kept her arms at her sides, allowing Eugene to see the parts of her that no other man ever had.

Rapunzel quickly stood up. “There! All done,” she said cheerily. “That wasn’t so bad, now was it?”

Like a popped balloon, the tension in the air suddenly burst with Rapunzel’s abrupt shift in demeanour. Cassandra couldn’t help herself. She started to laugh, just as a small chuckle at first, then as relief flooded through her she began to laugh harder and harder. Her laughter was contagious and soon Eugene and Rapunzel were laughing along with her. “I can’t believe you, Raps,” she said once she got control of herself again. “Just getting naked yourself wasn’t good enough, huh? You had to go ahead and strip Eugene, and now me too.”

“Huh, I guess you’re right. Does that mean I win?”

“I think if anyone here’s the winner, it’s Eugene. I mean, look at him. He did practically nothing but now he gets to see us both naked.”

“Yeah, but look on the bright side. We get to see him, too.” Rapunzel playfully bit down on her finger and openly stared at Eugene’s family jewels.

“I don’t GET to see him. I HAVE to see him. I can’t NOT see him. Big difference.”

“Come on, Cassandra,” Eugene said. “Can you really say that after seeing everything I have to offer?” He gestured to his body, striking a pose. He had to admit, to himself at least, that it was just a little awkward to let Cassandra of all people see him naked. But what was a little awkwardness on his end if he could really make her squirm?

Cassandra knew he was teasing, so tried her best to play along. She made a point of thoroughly looking him over, difficult as that was. He really was a handsome man, well proportioned in all the right places, and it took an effort for her eyes to not stay fixed on his still throbbing member. If he was as good in bed as was implied by the way Rapunzel behaved around him, then Rapunzel really was a lucky woman. If only he wasn’t so full of himself, Cassandra might say he was the perfect package, though she’d never tell him that. Instead, she playfully bit her lower lip while staring at his dick and said, “Yep. I don’t see anything worth bragging about.”

Eugene grew slightly defensive. “Hey now, don’t make me break out ‘The Smoulder’. It’s doubly effective when I’m naked, you know.”

Cassandra remembered the beguiling look that Eugene tried to use on occasion, though to both her and Rapunzel it was more goofy than seductive. “Double nothing is still nothing,” she countered.

Eugene snapped his fingers in ‘defeat’. “Darn. Here I am, completely naked on a tropical island, alone with two of the most beautiful women in the world, who are also naked, and yet they’re the only two women in the world who are unaffected by ‘The Smoulder’.”

“Oh, I wouldn’t quite say that, Sweetie,” grinned Rapunzel. “There’s a lot of women who are unaffected by it.”

“Hey, I thought you were supposed to be on my side!”

“I just call ‘em like I see ‘em,” she teased. “Now, why don’t we go wash this salt water out of our hair?”

“Can I put my bathing suit back on now?” asked Cassandra.

“Why bother? You’d have to take it off to rinse it properly at the pool, and I’m assuming you’re going to want to get dressed once we return here. Now that there’s nothing left to hide I don’t see the point of putting it on only to take it off again a couple minutes later.”

Knowing she wouldn’t win this one, Cassandra gave up and began the walk to the waterfall. Rapunzel and Eugene followed, carrying the swimsuits. For the entire journey Cassandra could feel Eugene staring at her from behind. When the falls were in sight she glanced behind her and sure enough, his eyes were glued to her ass.

“Would you please stop staring? You’re creeping me out,” she told him.

“Sorry Cass, no can do. When there’s a beautiful naked woman in front of a man, he has to look. It’s instinctual and completely out of our control. Our hands we can control, but our eyes? Not a chance. Besides, your ass is literal perfection.”

“Hey!” protested Rapunzel.

“Don’t get me wrong, Sunshine. I would happily kiss and nibble your cute little butt all day long, but just look at it,” he gestured to Casandra’s behind. “Perfectly pear shaped, with just the right amount of wiggle when she walks. Toned and yet still looks as soft as a pillow.”

Rapunzel joined in with her husband’s staring at their friend’s rear end. “Yeah, I guess I can see your point. I can’t say I’m well versed in butts, but Cass definitely has nothing to complain about.”

Cassandra was becoming self-conscious as the others talked about her body. Flattered, but still self-conscious. Thankfully they had arrived at the pool so she darted ahead and jumped in, the cold water cooling her off in more ways than one. When the other two joined her they all made quick work of rinsing their swimsuits and hair of salt water then returned to land to dry once more.

“Am I allowed to get dressed NOW?” Cassandra asked.

Rapunzel handed her the two bathing suits. “Sure. Just remember, there’s no point in putting that thing back on if you’re just going to take it off again at the shelter.”

Cassandra took the hint and didn’t put her bathing suit back on. “And what about Eugene?” she asked, holding up his trunks.

“Don’t worry about him. We’ll stay here for a few minutes, to air dry, then we’ll come back and get dressed. So feel free to go ahead without us.”

Cassandra did as was suggested. However, as soon as she was out of sight of the others she heard Rapunzel cry out in pleasure. Her eyes went wide and her cheeks turned red at the sound, which was likely caused by Eugene shoving his dick inside the princess. Technically they kept their promise to not do anything in front of her, but couldn’t they at least wait for her to be out of ear shot? She walked very quickly back to the shelter.

When Eugene and Rapunzel returned a little later, holding hands and walking so close together that they were nearly tripping on each other’s feet, Cassandra was already dressed and had started preparing supper. She noted that Eugene was no longer hard, finally, though she couldn’t help but blush when thinking about the why. The others gave her a quick wave then got dressed before helping her with what was left of the meal prep.

The remainder of the evening was surprisingly normal. Their conversation during the meal never so much as hinted at any of their earlier antics, and afterwards the three of them played cards by firelight until it was time to turn in. It had been a long day; tiring, fun, definitely not what any of them had expected, but in the end all three went to their rooms with smiles on their faces.

Cassandra had been laying in her bed for about fifteen minutes when she heard something that roused her from her near-sleep. At first she wasn’t sure if she was just imagining it, but as she became more alert her hearing grew sharper and there was definitely a soft repeating sound coming from somewhere close.

“ah ... ah ... ah”

She strained her ears, trying to pinpoint where the sound was coming from.

“Ah!” While still quiet, a much louder sound pierced the night, clearly coming from Rapunzel’s room.

‘Oh god!’ thought Cassandra. ‘They can’t be! Not again! They just did it a few hours ago!’ As she couldn’t help but listen, she realised the sound she was hearing was of Rapunzel breathing. The walls of the shelter were made of bamboo and rough hewn wood, held together by vines and rope, and there were gaps literally everywhere that apparently did absolutely nothing to block sound.

“Shh!” came Eugene’s voice in a whisper, though Cassandra could clearly hear every word. “Do you want to wake Cass?”

“Shut up and kiss me!” was Rapunzel’s breathy response.

Cassandra’s ears were filled with the sound of Rapunzel and Eugene making out like crazy. There was an occasional moan from either of them in between wet smacking sounds that surely involved a lot of tongue. Despite pressing her pillow against her ears Cassandra could still hear everything, and even though she didn’t want to, she could feel herself getting aroused.

She wanted to leave, to escape this situation and let the lovers sate their passions in privacy. But if she could hear even their whispers, surely they would hear her if she got up to leave, and the last thing she wanted was for them to know she was awake and listening. They had her trapped, though they didn’t know it.

A new sound soon joined the mixture of heavy breathing and kissing: the unmistakable sound of flesh slapping against flesh. Rapunzel let out soft moans of pleasure in time with the slaps. Cassandra clamped a hand over her mouth to stifle her own cry of ... surprise? Shock? Desire?

All the teasing that had gone on during the day, whether it was intentional or not, had her more embarrassed and more aroused than she had been in her entire life. And while she was able to cool down after their trip to the waterfall, listening to the other two have sex brought it all back, and then some. Without consciously thinking about it, Cassandra’s other hand began moving down her stomach to slip beneath her underwear. As her fingers began to brush against the hood of her clitoris, Cassandra became sharply aware of what her hand was doing. She stayed still for quite some time, not withdrawing her hand nor moving it further down. Then she licked her dry lips as she came to a decision. If Rapunzel and Eugene could seek relief, then why not her, too? Besides, it wasn’t like this would be the first time.

Cassandra’s own breathing became heavier as she began to caress the already damp folds of her vagina. Her thumb pressed against her clit, causing her to hiss in pleasure. She froze, worried that even that minute noise might be heard by the lovers, but thankfully they were too involved in their own pleasure to notice and the rhythmic sound of their lovemaking went on unchanging. She made an effort to make sure her mouth stayed tightly shut after that.

She lifted her hips and pulled down her bottoms, giving her easier access to the ache that was quickly building between her legs. Her other hand joined the first and while one hand spread her lips open, the other delved into her depths. Her hymen had long ago torn from all the acrobatics she engaged in so her fingers were free to reach as deep as they could. She slipped a finger inside, then back out, and back in again, unconsciously syncing up her movements with the sounds coming from the other room.

After a few minutes a second finger joined in, then a third. The pleasure was mounting quickly, and not just for Cassandra. The thrusting sounds coming through the wall began to get faster and harder.

“Yes!” moaned Rapunzel. “Give it to me, Eugene! Make me come!”

Eugene began to pound into his wife as fast as he could and at the same time Cassandra increased the speed of her fingers. She reached up with her other hand under her shirt and began squeezing her breast. She was so close now!

Suddenly, the thrusting stopped and Cassandra could hear Eugene grunting over and over while Rapunzel let out a long quivering moan. Knowing that both of them were coming was enough to send Cassandra over the edge. Her entire body tensed and began to shake in silent orgasmic pleasure. She held her breath as she trembled, desperate to contain any and all sound of her climax.

When her body finally stopped convulsing she took in a deep breath of cool night air, still being careful to stay as quiet as possible. From the other room she heard the two lovers panting in their own recovery.

“God, I love you,” Rapunzel quietly said to Eugene, her voice still shaking with pleasure.
