Chapter 38

Nadia

The rest of the week goes by uneventfully. Mom makes sure we are fed, and each night we spend time talking as a family outside, or in the living room. I get a lot of reading done which is nice. But James does end up taking me up every single day back to my favorite spot by the river to give me time to swim, or read, or ride his fingers again. The last part is my favorite. He still won't let me return the favor, which makes me curious as to why. He seems so focused on my pleasure, I feel like he's forgetting his own. I've tried bringing it up again, but he's set a strong boundary that as long as we are at my mothers house, this is the most he's willing to offer. That makes me think that once we are back at the apartment above the bookshop, I have free reign.
Today is Saturday, so I wake up early and for the first time, I'm up before James. I take in his sleeping face and take a quick picture to add to my ever growing photo collection of him, and shake him awake.
"Good morning, my love!" I say joyously. "It's Saturday" I sing.
"Saturday we get to sleep in" he grumbles and turns over in bed.
"Not today, today we are going tubing. Come on, up and at em" I tell him, giving him another shake. His head comes up and he looks a little surprised the week has passed by us so quickly.
"I'm sorry baby doll, I completely forgot" he says, looking a little ashamed of himself.
"Kiss me and it'll be all better" I tell him and he sits up, sealing his lips against my own. I hum in delight, and grin as I pull away. "Don't bother with a shower until we get back. Let's just change here" I tell him, going to my dresser drawers. I picked out a blue and white flowered tank-ini, with shorts for bottoms. It has a low dip giving a generous view of my chest, and it's just cute. I wear it for tubing. I've been wearing a black one to go swimming in the river, so I'm excited for James to see this one. It's a bit more feminine, which is something I like about it. I grab a long pink summer dress to wear on top and I head to the bathroom to change while James gets changed as well in the bedroom. While in the bathroom I put on sunblock and insect repellent and I come back to see James is already ready, and in the middle of putting on his shirt. I get a decent view of his rock hard abs and I want to drool at the sight.
"Hey baby doll" he says as soon as he finishes pulling on his shirt.
"Take that off, you need sunscreen and bug repellent" I tell him. He smirks and takes his shirt off again and I walk to him before I take a large glob of sunscreen and put it on his front. His hands go automatically to rub it in, so I move to his heavily muscled back. I get his shoulders as well and I'm having a hard time to not enjoy this half as much as I am, because he is firm, where I'm all curves.
"Did you get your back?" James asks softly while I'm finishing rubbing in lotion.
"No, I was going to ask mom" you tell him easily.
"I'll get it" he says, and I still for a moment. I'm not going to be naked, and he's seen me in a swimsuit before. He's finger fucked me in a swimsuit. This just seems more intimate.
"Sure" I gulp and hand him the lotion and pulled off my dress. Once I can see him again, he is biting down on his fist.
"Fuck, how did I get such a perfect mate" he groans and I giggle, and turn my back to him. He groans again before I feel his calloused hands start to rub lotion into me. I'm enjoying it, and he's certainly good with his hands. He starts massaging unnecessarily and I giggle. I hand him the bottle of spray and he sprays my back with insect repellent, then I do his whole body. Daisy lets out a sneeze, I didn't even notice her come back in.
"There's my baby" I coo to her.
"I've never been so jealous of a dog," James grumbles. I picked Daisy up since she only weighs thirty pounds. She licks my face when James puts his hand over the mark he made on my shoulder and Daisy seems to understand that's not a spot to touch. "Have you treated your shoulder yet?" he asks softly.
"No, I was hoping that mom would take a look at it when we go downstairs," I tell him.
"Let me save you the trip" he says, guiding me back to the bed. He grabs the first aid kit, and I set down Daisy who curls up beside me waiting. James comes to me and he pulls off the gauze that's on my shoulder. He cleans the wound and then puts on some more gauze again. He was so gentle with it.
"Thank you" I breathe.
"Always" he nods. "I don't want anyone else doing what's my job as your mate" he tells me and I blush.
"I think my mom can be an exception" I giggle, and go for the sundress again.

James

I don't want her to put that dress on again, not yet. I pull her back to me and I kiss her hard on the lips. Her curves meet my rigid body and melt right into me. She wraps her arms around my neck as though she's afraid her legs would give out otherwise. She lets out a soft gasp and looks at me with heavily lidded eyes as she pulls back.
"What was that for?" she asked me.
"I needed a kiss," I shrugged. I don't actually have a good reason. I just like the view so much, I don't want to see it go to waste. I feel like bending her over the bed and knotting her now, but I said I would wait. Besides, her mother is downstairs, likely waiting with breakfast again. I don't hear the tell tale sounds from the kitchen however.
"Is your mom coming with us?" I ask her.
"Of course! She loves going tubing. She probably already packed all of our snacks to go" Nadia says with lights in her eyes.
"What about breakfast?" I ask, because honestly, one of my favorite meals is breakfast since coming to this house.
"Today we are picking it up and having it on the way. There's a few outhouses there, so you don't have to worry if you get a gurgly tummy when we get there. After that it's just us and eight hours on the river" she smiles running her hands up and down my arms.
"Well, lead the way" I say as I grab the suntan lotion and the bug spray because I don't want her burnt, and I don't want any bug bites either. She puts on her dress finally and I'm at a loss. I miss the curvy form already.
"Soon" Fang says in my head and I couldn't agree more.

As soon as we get downstairs, Ducky is already in the living room with a large cooler. She is dressed in a black swimsuit with little purple hearts on the top.
"I was worried I'd have to wake you two up" Ducky jokes.
"We had to use lotion and bug spray. James also took care of my shoulder" Nadia offers. "And he was a little grumpy when he woke up this morning. He forgot it was tubing day" she gives a soft giggle.
"I'll admit the week got past me" I offer. "But thankfully I have Nadia to keep me on my feet" I chuckle.
"We are just waiting on the others, but we do stop at a coffee shop and get breakfast before we head out. Jacob and Rieta are probably bringing their mini van with their kids and Jenny and Lar in the back," Ducky advises me.
"I'll take the cooler out to my car and we can take that instead" I offer.
"Sure son, I'll just double check your work on the shoulder" she says as she pulls back Nadia's gauze. She gives me a look like I impressed her and I puff my chest before I pick up the cooler. Its heavy, but nothing is too heavy for me. Including a moving vehicle.
"If we change her, she will heal that much faster" Fang whispers inside my head. He's been saying it all week. I think he's excited to meet his fated mate as well. I hate to be doing this to him, but I have to go slow since she's human.
"Soon" I whisper to thin air, but I know Fang heard me. I intend on it as well. I'll let her do whatever she wants, but I will have her as soon as I know she's actually ready down below. I'm generous in size and I've been working this week on stretching her out a bit with my fingers. She seems to enjoy it, but it's been torture for me. I want so badly to be inside of her and rutting her into the bed, or the forest floor. I turn and Nadia is standing on the porch with her mother and smiling at me. At the moment, nothing else matters. Just her smile.
I hear tires on gravel and turn to see a blue minivan making its way towards us. With my sharp eyes, I can see only four people in the mini van. Rieta and Jacob are in the front, while Jenny and a woman I've never met before are in the seats in the back. Jenny jumps out of the mini van as soon as it parks and runs to Nadia and Ducky and gives them each a hug.
"Tubing day!" she exclaims.
"Yes! It's James' first time, so we have to be gentle" Nadia giggles.
"Oh, you've never been tubing before?" Jenny turns to look at me, while Jacob, Rieta and the other woman get out.
"Oh, Lar, this is James that I told you about" Jenny introduces the taller woman with hazel eyes and long brown and grey hair. She has a bright smile and she waves.
"Hello" Lar says walking over. "I'm Lar, it's nice to meet you James" she shakes my hands.
"The kids didn't want to come this time around. They said next round though" Jacob announces his presence.
"They are playing with their uncle Peter, mainly video games right now" Rieta informs.
"Are you guys ready? Did you want to take the one car?" Jacob asks, eyeing me doubtfully.
"We will take my car too, just in case. We already have it loaded" I advise. I honestly don't want to be in the mini van and squished in. I'm used to my comforts.
"Well, let's get this show on the road. Mom has shot gun" Nadia comes over and takes my hand, and I immediately bring it up to my lips and kiss it.
"Don't be silly, I'll take the back. I'm sure it's comfortable. You kids have the front" Ducky proceeds to get in the backseat of my car and I find myself following Jacob out of the driveway.
