Djinn & Tonic 

By Cara B. Witching 

Chapter two of Mythnotized

…

My dry lips gasp an exhausted sigh, dropping myself into a nearby mound of sand as my eyes seal themselves closed. I've been stumbling around this vast desert for the past few hours, nothing in sight but endless blistering heat.

After a few moments I turn around on my side, unable to take the scorching grains against my bare skin any longer. While in just my bra and a pair of shorts, my scarcity of clothing did little to alleviate the hot discomfort assailing me.

"...That's the last time I disobey the tour guide.." 

I softly groan to myself, rising back up to my feet and giving a little whimper. My legs kick, and I resume dancing across the hot sands lightly stinging my soles. 

...

"Agh!!!" 

I sharply cry as my toes become entangled with something sleek and metallic, sending a nice welcomed coldness between my pedicure but still throwing me off balance. 

My eyes lazily spin around in dizzying circles, and my brown hair blankets over my face once I collapse into another sandy hill, sliding down its bank with a dazed expression beneath my locks. 

All this heat was starting to get to me...If I didn't find my way back soon, I didn't want to think what could happen out here!

But my distressing thoughts are soon forgotten, once I reach down to examine the sleek coolness between my toes. 

...

My eyes light up, and my jaw slowly hangs open, hardly able to believe what I'm holding. Here, in my very own hands, is something resembling the classic magical lamp of legend. 

Midnight colored with a sleek purple hue, it was just large enough to fit in both my hands, yet feels light as a feather. Holding the lamp up to my face, I notice how deeply black its color is, one could almost get lost into the darkness. 

"Whoa...There's...There's no way..."

I dig my nails into the sand to help rise myself up, stumbling about on my bare feet for a few moments before returning my gaze to the hypnotic lamp in my grasp. 

This thing had to be worth a fortune, I could already tell I'd have to hide it from everyone else when I found my way back...

Oh right...if I found my way back...

I give a soft sigh as I hold the lamp out, seemingly unable to take my eyes away as I move it back and forth in the air. Such a pretty lamp, maybe I wouldn't sell it, I could just keep it on my desk, have something nice and relaxing to lose myself in...

Before I even realize what's happening, my hand gently brushes across the cool, inviting surface of the lamp, unable to really stop myself...

"Well, if I die out here, at least I can die pretending you're my boyfr-.."

*BOOOOOOM!!!!*

I'm snapped from the trance by a sudden explosion, an endless stream of red mist blowing from the lamp with a glow. Instantly I drop it to the sands, stepping back and rubbing my eyes in disbelief. 

The crimson fog soon envelops my body, wrapping around me like a small tornado and sending my hair flying in every direction. My eyes become fearful, and I nervously continue walking backwards as the cloud slowly dissipates...

"WHO DARES TO AWAKEN ME?!?!"

A powerfully dominant and masculine voice shouts, striking fear into my heart and causing my legs to tremble. I gasp when the smoke clears, and slowly my legs begin to tremble for a different reason...

Floating above me is now one of the most incredibly well built men I've ever seen! His dark red skin seems to be giving off a slight glow of some kind, further enticing my eyes to behold his magnificent body. 

His beard was styled into that of a black goatee, while a matching turban wrapped around his head, the crimson hunk giving me an annoyed glare as my eyes trail across his form. 

"W-whoaa..." I can't seem to pull myself away from his incredible abs…The fact that he was a genie was almost completely lost on me, I was more impressed to be seeing an actual eight-pack up close!!

"I uh...Ohhh...W-whew I um...Hmmm..."

Words escape me as I raise a finger up to try and speak, only able to stutter out a few happy and impressed sighs. Suddenly my discomfort seemed like a long forgotten memory, everything around me was becoming so dreamy, my heart couldn't help but skip a bit faster. 

"Oh, thanks." He says to me in a much quieter tone when he notices my gawking, yet still deep and powerful. 

"I have a home gym in my lamp, and I've really been putting in the effort and dedication it takes these last 2000 years. It's nice a cute girl like you would notice that." 

My agape mouth smiles as my eyes glow with bright little hearts, totally hypnotized by his flawless abs. They were so fucking perfect, I didn't even have a chance to admire how broad and sexy his shoulders were yet! 

Ohh man, my heart was starting to leap around like crazy...

"Ha...Take notice...I'd have to be bliiiiind!" I flutter my eyes while fanning my grinning face.

"You've gotta let a girl know when you walk around your pad shirtless like that...Woof..." 

I let out a dreamy sigh, he's just so hot, I can't help but continue ogling him up and down with fluttery, half closed eyes. The genie floats a bit closer to me, seeming to flex his abs inches from my face. 

"So...uhm...Do I um...get some wishes or...?" 

It's difficult for me to even finish my sentence, lightly shaking my head around to snap myself out of it. 

“...Ya know what, for a hot chick like you, sure I can make some time. Besides, not like I have eternity or anything." He grins, crossing his clawed hands across his enormous arms. 

"I'm not going to call you 'master' though. But feel free to flip that around if you'd like."

I respond with a quiet, giggling 'yes master', unable to really think clearly the longer I stare at him. Wish for anything huh? Mm, I should wish for a bed right now, or a front row seat for his workout. 

Still, I've heard that genies can be kind of tricky in legends, maybe it would be better just to play it safe...if only I could keep focused on a thought besides his tummy for long.

"....Oh! I wish for a pint of that chocolate melt ice cream I could only ever find at Eurospin a few times."

The red hunk raises his eyebrow to my wish, giving me a smirk before snapping his fingers. 

With a small puff of smoke, the icy cold container appears in my hand, exactly as I remembered it! I can scarcely believe my eyes, or my luck!!

"Aha!! Yes!! Oh God, it's been so long!!!"

I toss the pint's lid to the desert, and gulp down the savory ice cream almost as quickly, the feeling beyond heaven to my dry throat. 

In a matter of seconds my ice cream is gone, the genie continuing to study me with a slightly amused look to his deep red eyes. 

"Not to be rude or anything, but was that really the best use for a wish?” He asks me with a coyness in his booming voice. 

"Oh sure, the first wish is always some dumbass indulgent thing." I grin, licking up the remnants of my ice cream from my hands. 

"And now that I'm not dying of heat stroke, I can actually think of a proper one!" 

I touch my lips, trying to think of something good to wish for. But having my face so close to so much shirtless perfection was still clouding my head up a bit. 

Heh, he kinda reminds me of those guys in that calendar my aunt gave me....Maybe I should wish for her to find a husband? Nah, this is my wish for me, I need to think hard and make sure it's something worthwhile. 

"Hmmm...Ugh, I wish I could think of something to wish for..." I sigh to myself, the genie's face beaming at my words. 

*Snap!*

Suddenly my eyes open wide, and my mind blanks out into a swirling red vortex for a moment. All I'm able to comprehend is the fiery swirl, all I know is the never ending blaze in my mind. 

"I know exactly what to wish for."

My eyes briefly fill with the red swirling, fading back into my normal blue after a few moments, before fluttering and looking around confusingly. 

"...Damn it! Oh no, don't tell me that counts as a wish!?"

I watch as the genie nods his head, giving me a solemn look while still smirking. Still, that was sort of neat though, blanking out into a mental swirl. Is that what getting hypnotized was like?

"Afraid so. They were your own words, sorry just following the rules."

"No no, I get it. I wouldn't want a sweet guy to lose his job for me."

I sigh, and allow my eyes to just naturally rest back on his abs. At least I knew what to wish for now, but I almost didn't want him to go. What I really wanted most of all was to just keep looking at that body forever, maybe even touch if he was comfortable being with a mortal girl like me...

"I wish to be the prettiest girl in the whole world!" 

My voice chirps, resting my hands on my hips, while the charming and handsome genie continues to smile. 

"I've got a better idea, Cara. Why don't I give you a do-over for your second wish?" 

There's a coy playfulness to his eyes, while my own light up with excitement, oblivious to him calling me by my own name. 

"Really, you'll give me another on the house?" 

"What can I say - You're a babe, I like watching you smile. I know if I had a wish, it'd be to see you in this harem number I've been saving.”

My face turns almost as red as his while descending into mindless giggles. Trying to match his gaze seems impossible though, no matter how much I try to look away, my eyes just remain glued to his abs. 

With a groan my smiling mouth drops open once more, and I can feel myself slouching forward closer to his tummy, my eyes opening wide each time his abs flex. 

They just draw me in more and more, I feel so hypnotized by his body...Such an impressive cut...Running down and teasing what could no doubt be a third leg. 

"There is a condition, however. You may only use it to wish for my freedom."

Drool starts to pour from my lips, and my fluttering eyes glaze over completely. His abs have me totally mystified and spellbound, I don't want to do anything else but stare, and let them hypnotize me deeper. 

My thoughts evaporate as more drool runs down my chin. Slowly my eyes fill once more with fiery red swirls, my arms dangling limply as I slouch even closer to his perfect body. 

"Yes master...I wish for your freedom...And to kiss those abs..." My head fills with a masculine chuckling, and I soon find my lips puckering against his abs. 

Incredible ecstasy flows through me as I kiss, and smooch across his beautiful tummy, releasing a quiet little *mwah!* each time. 

*Snap!*

...

The next thing I'm vaguely aware of is standing in a large bedroom, lavishly decorated with an oriental inspired design. Treasures and vases line thick marble shelves, while exotic tapestries decorate the walls.

Gone is the desert sand, replaced by a thick shag carpet which my red painted toes naturally relax into. 

"Ah, I can't believe it took me so long to get the freedom wish out of someone. Now that's embarrassing."

The genie chuckles, now sporting a pair of thick and sexy legs. He fixes his turban while stepping past his home gym to run his claws against my back. 

“Mmm..Now this is how one should spend eternity!”

My bra and shorts have been transformed into something more harem designed. A comforting velvet red top helps to push and give my breasts a bit of volume, while a similar red thong conceals my now shaved privates. 

A small gold chain runs through my crack, while similar golden bracelets and earrings help decorate me up as a nice prize. 

My face now sports a bit of glitter and makeup, my shiny lips and eyelids matching so perfectly with my red bikini. A completely translucent veil drapes over the bottom half of my face, while my eyes swirl with never ending fire spirals.

The genie's claws brush through my ponytailed hair, taking a moment to savor the perfume now adorning my skin. 

As the shirtless djinn circles around me, I stare off into nothing with my spiral eyes, subconsciously thrilled to be under his mesmeric control. And feeling myself dressed like this for him, just made it easier to submit to his power.

He steps over to a tapestry depicting a genie girl in a pin-up style, smirking to himself as he takes the tapestry into his claws. As the paper shreds, it melts back into itself, taking on a golden hue...

Soon a collar etched with Arabic inscriptions floats itself over to me, locking closed around my neck as I just continue to sink deeper and enjoy this dreamy trance. 

"It'll be nice to travel for myself, now. France, Greece, Italy..." His claws tap against my new collar, examining the glowing inscriptions that displayed his ownership over me.

"Of course, it'll be even nicer to travel with a pretty companion at my side."

He grins, stepping back to lounge on a large sofa. His claws reach to a red hookah behind him, never taking his red eyes from me. 

"Yes Master...Travel with you...As your pretty companion.." I sigh out, feeling so good to submit to my new life as the genie's slave. 

"Very good, my little harem girl." He laughs, raising the nozzle to his lips and puffing a cloud of red smoke around me. 

A bit of the smoke trails around my face in the shape of a heart, my dreamy smile widening behind my face veil. 

"Now, why don't we start with the in-flight entertainment?" His coy smile widens, and he snaps his fingers once more, causing the swirls in my eyes to rotate around faster with a sigh.

"Yes Master...Your wish is my command..."

My swirling eyes continue to flutter about as I raise my arms into the air, slowly turning around in place while undulating my stomach. Now he's the one who becomes transfixed by my midsection, puffing away on the hookah as I belly dance for him. 

"Such a silly thing to wish for, Cara...You were already the prettiest girl in the world!”
