Chereads / His Bride Not Mate / Chapter 17 - Chapter 16.

Chapter 17 - Chapter 16.

The people at the door were none other than my brother and sister in law. I rushed to open the door and as soon as it opened lucia nearly tackled me with a gift box in her arms. My eyes widened as I tried to avoid bumping into her and possibly hurting the child in her belly. I breathed a sigh of relief when she finally let up and exhaled a small laugh.

"You're as energetic as ever." I told her. 

"We're sorry we didn't prepare enough on your big day, and I'm even more sorry that we didn't get you a gift. So as an apology, I dragged Jason here to pick up a wedding gift and asked Nelson for your hotel details." At the mention of my brother I slowly looked at him,realizing sadly but unsurprisingly that he was trying his best not to stay angry. I quickly noticed that his fists were tightly clenched, the green in his veins being thrown into Sharp relief. Of course he was still mad at me and was not yet ready to accept that I am married and it is going to take a lot to convince him to change his mind. Lucia, who I noticed was staring back and forth at us, suddenly elbows Jason. He groans In feigned pain and after a bit of murmuring and mumbling he steps forward and hands over the gift he carried in his hand. 

"Congratulations on being married." He said but he didn't end at just that. Jason continued. "Feel free to come home to me just in case you're bored of him or change your mind. You don't have to get married if you're with me. I can take care of my little sister by myself for as long as I'm alive….urgh….." What followed was Jason groaning from pain as he stepped back while holding onto his stomach. He looked at Lucia and smiled with a brief flash of teeth. "You've become exceptionally strong ever since you got pregnant dear, and that mood swing of yours seems to have become a problem but don't worry about that, we're going straight for birth control after this child is born." Brother threatened her. 

Lucia, who had always been a lover of kids, shoved her gift on top of Jason's and began showering him with sweet talks and kisses. 

"Eh hem." I called for their attention, for they were the type who would easily forget about my existence if allowed. "Thank you for your gift " I say to them. "Do you wanna come in, no never mind that , brother can you leave us alone for a bit ? I was about to jump in the shower anyway, so luce can just come in and wait while I shower then we'll join you shortly." Jason nodded before turning on his heel and making his way down the hall.I let Lucia inside and shut the door behind us, jerking when I felt her suddenly pull my arm. 

Her eyes were glowing as she sat me on the sofa in the living room. "So tell me all about it." She said. I had forgotten that Lucia was someone with high sexual fantasies. Before she got married she would tell me all about how she would want to be treated by Jason on their first night and she would go on and on about it for hours that I would get tired and wish for someone to show up and put me out of my misery, sadly no one did, it was also thanks to her stories that I was able to gather some notes to try with Nelson that day. Lucia was a sex symbol and was the type to tutor Jason if he wasn't giving her what she wanted. However there was one thing that I loved about her and my brother and that was that they were devoted to each other. 

It was the kind of bond that could not be broken. The two went everywhere together and I haven't heard them argue since they got married, it was the type of relationship that everyone was jealous of. Even I envied them to the point of wanting a mate like them but that would never come true. 

"Lucia I'm going to shower." I tried to dodge her question. 

Lucia slaps me right on the back to the point where I almost fell off the sofa, now I understand why my brother wants birth control. She's too strong. "Don't play dumb with me."

I could swear I almost bled from my mouth because of that slap. "It never happened." I bluntly tell her, but Lucia frowns. She leans forward and flicks her finger signaling for me to come closer as well.

"Does he have a problem down there, or is he" she pauses for dramatic effect, "perhaps not into women?" She lets out a gasp, her hands covering her mouth. "Is that it?" She questions me. 

Oh there she goes again with her obscure assumptions. If either of those were the case then we would have never met in the first place. She grabs my hand in hers and looks into my eyes. "Do I need to tell your brother, do you wanna come home with us?" Since when did she take sides with Jason? "Talk to me Lilian, do you need help? Do I recommend a doctor or medication." Ha! It quickly dawned on me that Lucia was batshit crazy. 

"Please stop, his tool works just fine." Fuck. I spilled the beans. Lucia looked at me like a puppy as she stared at me. "You've seen it haven't you." Brother please come take your wife with you, I pray silently. "Tell me all about it and don't miss a single detail." She urged me. However,  I stood up and tried to escape using the 'I need to bathe' excuse to flee from her. I need some breathing space. 

As I locked the bathroom door, I could still hear Lucia yell out, 'I'm waiting for you by the door.' even while I was inside. There was no escaping her. 

Exhausted, I turned the faucets and let the cold water run while I shimmied out of my night dress. Maybe if I took long enough, she'd leave on her own accord. As I began to lather up, I could hear her raise some topics from outside, but then just as I finished and turned off the faucets, there was total silence. It's unlike Lucia to give up halfway through. 

Is she okay? 

I listened by placing my ears on the door. I could hear heavy breathing and in fear of something happening to Lucia, I dashed out with nothing but the bath robe around me which I failed to tie. Quickly I open the door but crash face first into something firm. my vision blanks out for about three to four seconds. My body felt like it was losing balance and couldn't tell if I was falling forward or backwards, but then suddenly I felt light, my feet also weren't touching the ground. Did I hit my head and die without knowing ? 

No!

Something feels off, it's almost as if I'm in some kinda body pillow. It can't be Lucia or brother can it? Was my brother's body ever this sturdy and comfy at the same time. 

Wait, sturdy? 

I start to feel all over the chest and start to fear the result. Only one person had such a build which I am aware of.

"You can open your eyes once you're done groping me which belongs to you." 

It's Nelson. Crap!. My eyes snapped open and refocused on what was supposed to be a flustered Nelson, he was avoiding my eyes and staring into space. He looked weird. 

"I'm sorry I'll come down now."

"Wait. Don't move yet." Ah. Now I know why Nelson looks this way. My robe came loose. I'm screwed.
