The Mute Mate

XXXIX

The warm water started to hit my shoulders in back as I stepped into the water. Alex had gotten the water in the perfect temperature before helping me in the shower with my injured wrist, my legs a little weak too from Alex's magic.  We were both naked in front of each other, but it did not feel awkward. When he first undressed, I was taking glances at his member, but eventually, he was able to keep my attention on his face instead of his head. 

"Did you get the shampoo and conditioner?" I was clutching them to my body with my other hand and presented them to him. He took them from me and put them on a perch for later, "You want to wash your hair or your body first?"

I already was getting my hair wet when he asked and he saw my decision before he could get anything else out. He chuckled at me. "Do you want me to help you with that, Princess?"

"If you want, my Alpha." He smiled and helped finger-detangle my hair, trying to be as gentle as possible. He was trying to be so soft, he wasn't getting anywhere fast, "Alex, you can be a little tougher. I'm not that tender headed." I joked.  

"If you say so, Princess." I felt him get slightly rougher, but he was doing a good job in my hair. His hands felt very therapeutic in my hair, enough for me to close my eyes and enjoy the running water. A few more minutes went by when he finally spoke up, "Is that good?" He asked me. 

I shook my head, "Is it tangled anymore?" 

I felt a hesitation in my hair, "Guess so," He joked. 

He continued to massage the shampoo into my hair and rinsed it out several times before he finally put in the conditioner. I got lost in my thoughts during the whole ordeal as his fingers were magical in every sense. I felt like I hit the Mate Jackpot as if that was a thing. 

I heard him pick up the bottle and examine it, I turned to him and he was reading the label with squinted eyes, "How long does it say?" I encouraged him. 

It took him a few more seconds before he announced, "3 minutes." 

I turned towards the two rags Alex brought with him and handed one to him. "Enough time to wash our bodies then." He gladly accepted it and grabbed the bottle of lavender, pouring soap into his rage and passing it to me. 

I took a generous about of soup and scrubbed my rag together, putting the bottle down and creating a soapy ball in my hands. It was the equivalent of a bubble bath in my hands. I loved it. 

Alex was already onto scrubbing his body while I was still admiring the ball of bubbles. I turned towards Alex and blew the bubbles at him. One cloud of bubbles landed on his chin and I couldn't help but laugh at how ridiculous he looked. I couldn't help but the growing of giggles kept going as he playfully scolded me, "What are you laughing at, Missy?" 

I was able to speak through my giggles and spit out what was so funny, "You-you look like a Disney villain." 

My mate raised his eyebrows at me playfully and stroke his imagery extra chin hair, "Am I pulling off a good Jafar?" He animated the Aladdin villain, "How many time do I have to kill you, boy?" He quoted. 

The impression was spot on and I wasn't expecting for him to pull out a quote so quickly. I was doubled over laughing and giggling at him. It was so funny to me because he was almost the perfect embodiment of Jafar but I still claimed him as mine. Maybe I was mated to a Disney villain who also wasn't as bad as he seemed. 

He grabbed some of the bubbles still in my hand and wiping some on my nose and giving himself a chuckle, "If I'm Jafar that means you're Pinocchio." 

I gave him a cheeky grin and stuck my tongue out at him, "Except I don't lie." I rebutted. 

He gripped my back and pulled me closer to him, his imaginary chin beard inches from my extended nose. I poked Alex's chest with my extra nose and the excess came off on him. He wiped off his chin beard and leaned down and gave me a gentle kiss on the lips. Soft and loving. I loved his kissed. His soft ones. His rough ones. His lips were enticing and hypnotizing every time he placed them on my skin. Nothing but sparks and shivers could be registered by my nervous system. Everything else shut down almost immediately and acted like they never existed. 

Alex brought his lips off of mine and rested them on my forehead, gently humming to himself, content. "Let's get rinsed and dried, shall we?" He muttered against my skin. 

I hummed in agreement, but before we got out, I wanted to do something ever since I saw him naked. I smacked his ass. He was taken back a bit and was confused, but still, he laughed it, "Don't bite off too much you can't chew." He teased and playfully nipped the skin on my neck with his lips. I couldn't stop the giggles that bubbled inside me. 

After our shower, I ended up in a chair in front of the mirror where Alex was putting two braids in my hair. He was almost finished when I finally asked him, "How do you know how to do braids and twists?" 

He shrugged as he reached the end of the first one, tying a rubber band on the end of one of them. "When Molina was younger, Father was too busy with his Alpha duties and such so I had to do her hair every morning before school." He chuckled a little before continuing, "Youtube was my savior back then." 

I admired him being a big brother. It made me think of my own brothers. I had remembered that Lamar was the one that always did my hair when Mother wasn't around. No matter how many times he did it over and over again, he was still bad at it. TJ did my hair occasionally, but he was worse than Lamar was and I would usually just end up wearing a hat that day. I missed them both. I absently touched the gold rose necklace that was still hanging around my neck, the only thing I had left to bring into my new family. The wound was still sore, but it was healing. 

Alex placed his hands on my shoulders as he examined his work in the mirror, "What do you think?" He asked. The braids were very tight and clean, there were no stray hairs out of place and he even had enough time to put my baby hairs down. I smiled. It was actually almost as something as good as I would get it. I was honestly proud of him.

"It looks really good," I said honestly. 

He was cheezing at himself at how I praised him. I could tell he hadn't done hair in a minute considering Molina was about to turn 18, but he was glad to know he could still do it. He picked up my bonnet that was on the counter and helped placed it on my hairstyle. After the bonnet was secured, he leaned down and placed his hands back on my shoulders. 

I saw the demeanor start to change from innocent and sweet to devilish. He started to do his finger thing where he gently dragged his tips over my skin, this time my neck and collarbone that tingled with excitement. 

Alex leaned over and gently nipped my ears again, a low growl emitting from him that made me start swimming. "Hm, baby girl?" he cooed. I could only hum through my lips to respond to him, "You smell delicious," He stated, running his nose over my neck and taking a whiff. I wasn't sure if he was talking about from the soap or whatever he was smelling. 

I watched him through the mirror and I saw him open his mouth, revealing his transformed teeth and dragging them along the crease of my collarbone and neck area, provoking goosebumps from my skin. I left out a breathless gasp as my blood started pumping more and more throughout my entire body. 

He found a specific spot he liked and licked right there, sending more shiver down my core. He went around to the chair and helped me up, starting to guide us out of the bathroom and into the bedroom, still only dressed in towels. 

Before I knew it, the back of my knees we giving in as I fell back on the bed, Alex following and hovering over me as I was enclosed by a rock and bed. I glanced down and saw a hard tent in Alex's towel, joining the party. Alex went back to his spot on my neck that he happened to fancy and licked it one more time, "Baby," He spoke against my skin, "I want to mark you. Can I do that?" He asked me. 

Words didn't exist all of a sudden so I could only nod. He wasted no time in sinking his teeth into his spot. I winced as the sensation led to stinging, but then, after he removed his teeth and started to lick at the spot to heal, a blinding bliss overcame me. A low growl came back to Alex, losing himself to his wolf and slowly becoming rougher as he littered my neck with hickies and kisses. "Mine," He grumbled possessively. Alex was already lined up with my entrance, ready to push forward and take my innocence.

The burning need became unbearable and I found my legs wrapped around his hips, wanting him. Needing him. A whimper escaped me as I begged him, "Fuck me." Was all I could get out. 

After hearing my plea, the Alpha waited no more time into giving me what I wanted.
