Wrapping myself around her, I nuzzle at D’see’s pretty neck, my tail latching around her ankle. “Wake up, my heart.”
“Mmmm.” She burrows back against me, rubbing her backside against my cock. “You feel good. Is it time for me to make dinner or do we have time to fool around a bit?”
“You have time,” I tell her, deciding that I do not care if the others eat late. “They can wait.”
She shakes her head. “It’s my turn. I told Lauren I’d use the herbs she liked again. I don’t want to be late.”
I am proud of my sweet D’see. She has been determined to help out at camp with everything she can. Lately, she has been using my cooking herb blends to season the stew and it has brought her such pleasure to hear how much the others enjoy the food when she cooks. She feels shy about their praise, feeling that she does not deserve it since I am the one that is best with the herbs. I like that they praise her, though. It encourages her to do more and it makes her feel good and helpful.
Well, most days I am happy with this. Today I just want to pleasure my mate. I slide my hand under her tunic dress, seeking out the cleft between her thighs. “How is your back?”
“Better than this morning, but I still won’t say no to a back rub.” D’see gives me a sleepy smile. “I thought the sore back didn’t happen until the baby got bigger.” She pats her faintly rounded belly. “I’m practically not showing.”
“I will rub your back as often as you need it,” I reassure my mate, and slide my fingers through her folds. Not wet yet, but I can make her so. “Would you like rubbing anywhere else?”
D’see chuckles, sliding her legs apart so I can settle between them. “Since you asked nicely…” She moans as I nip the inside of her thigh, rolling fully onto her back as I descend lower. “This is a lovely way to wake up. You’re going to spoil me rotten.”
“Wait until you see the eggs I retrieved for you.” I part her folds and gaze at the flushed skin, my mouth watering at the anticipation of her taste.
“Eggs?”
D’see sits up, her legs coming together so quickly that she nearly smacks my jaw with her knee.
Amused, I roll onto my side and eye my mate. “You would rather have eggs than my fine tongue upon your cunt?”
“Right now? Honestly? Yes.” She crawls toward me and plants a kiss on my face. “Plus, you lick my pussy daily anyhow. I haven’t had eggs in forever.” D’see looks around the hut. “Where are they?”
“Baking in the coals. Give them a minute yet.”
“Oh god, I’m so excited.” She throws a leg over my hips and sits atop me, rolling me onto my back. Her eyes are bright with enthusiasm and she wriggles all over, sending a thrill through my body. “Have I ever told you that you’re the best mate ever?”
I grin. “This morning. When I was between your thighs.”
Her lips curve into a smile. “So it’s a line you’ve heard before.”
“Once or twice, yes. I do not mind hearing it again.”
Biting her lip, she leans over me. “Wanna hear something new, then?”
Something…new? I think of the finger in my backside last night and my face grows hot once more. “Does it involve oils?”
My mate gives a wicked giggle and leans over me. “No! But…that’s not a bad guess.” She presses a kiss to my mouth and then sits up again, resting her back on my raised knees. “Should I just tell you?”
I nod, confused.
“I went to see Veronica to check on the baby, of course.” She takes my hand and puts it on her belly, which has grown hard and slightly rounded recently. “You know Flor’s not showing yet and I am? I just wanted to make sure everything was okay, since we’re pretty close together, time-frame wise.” She taps my chest with one finger. “Turns out there’s a reason for that.”
“Because you are built different,” I guess.
D’see shakes her head. “Because we are having twins.”
My mouth goes dry. I stare up at her, shocked. “We…what?”
“Two babies.” She presses my hand to her stomach, her expression downright gleeful. “Veronica said she felt a little something extra going on with my pregnancy but didn’t want to say anything because she didn’t want to scare me. I brought her some tea that I blended together as a thank you, and she checked my belly again. Today, she said she felt both heartbeats. Two babies, O’jek. I’m going to be as big as a house.”
“Two,” I echo, terrified. “Is that safe?”
D’see leans over me again and presses kiss after kiss to my face. “Of course it’s safe, love. I promise you I feel wonderful.”
