Наслаждайся!
очень просто - "наслаждайся", "получай удовольствие".

: "наслаждайся", "получай удовольствие" - действительно немного неестественно и саркастично и "холодно". Но можно чуть-чуть сместить акцент - "Насладись мной" ("..мною"). Проверьте по Яндексу: (!"Насладись мной" | !"Насладись мною")

context is missing!
Bill Bryson in his book "The Mother Tongue" writes just about such a case. He gives an example of "have fun!", of which, as he rightly claims, there is no native word in Russian. Depending on the context Enjoy it may be, for example:
-in reference to food: Кушай на здоровье!
- vacation/holiday: Отлично провести время (в отпуске)! Отдыхайте в своё удовольствие!
- a movie: Смотри и наслаждайся/получай удовольствие!
you name it. Those are just suggestions though, useless outside the context...

Poluchi! [slang/contextual]
heavily depends upon a context. But you were looking for 'slang'..
--------------------------------------------------
Note added at 48 mins (2005-12-30 22:31:48 GMT)
--------------------------------------------------
With the context like:
1. pointing a gun to someone:
- You asked for that..
[shooting]
- Enjoy it!
2. '... you forced me to do this.. it's your all your fault.. (Now you can) enjoy it!
or
3. '..you did everything to put yourself into this mess..
Well, enjoy it, then!

Though it will hardly work with the situation you provided!

Note added at 1 hr 8 mins (2005-12-30 22:52:25 GMT)
--------------------------------------------------
However - .. developing the situation provided:
It's about a woman who offers her body to men...So before having sex with them she always uses the same phrase "enjoy it".
<what if that woman, in order to punish her molestors, made herself sick, so - "before having sex with them she always uses the same phrase "enjoy it" - awarding her partners with a decease >
in this case my variant [Enjoy it! 'Poluchi! - she whispered] - might work.

Ну что ж, получите-ка удовольствие от моего тела!
Правда, сознаюсь, что немножко длинновато получилось. Вообще, можно и короче: Ну что ж, приступайте к телу!

Повеселимся!
Недеюсь что этот вариант вам поможет.
Так же можно употребить "Поехали!" что в русском жаргоне означает начало чего-нибудь (выпивки, чаще всего).

Возми меня/я - твоя
1. Возми меня
2. Я - твоя
This is quite far from the literal translation of "enjoy it", but in my opinion it sounds as something a woman is likely to say in this situation

Приятного аппетита!
Разумеется, я читал контекст...
Но вспомнилось, что enjoy it! употребляется и в значении "Приятного аппетита!" в смысле еды и тоже подразумевает желание получить наслаждение. Но почему бы не употребить это в данном (переносном) смысле? Мне кажется, вполне реальная ситуация.
Аппетит тоже разный бывает... ;)

Хотя немного "несерьезный" (юморной, шутливый) вариант. Не знаю подходит ли в контексте, может, для героини ее слова очень даже серьезны...

Another version:
Потешься!
But I, personally, would chouse this one:
МИЛОСТИ ПРОШУ!
It sounds like offering and natural enough, too.
