Amber went back to school. It had only been a day, but it felt like a lifetime. She was now a mother and a wife to many husbands. She was a Queen of the Cheetah tribe and the Mermen!
She felt a little silly going back to school to deal with this school drama. She hoped nothing would go wrong and she could leave as soon as possible. She couldn't focus on school with everything going on in the world.
Nick was at her home all alone and she was worried about him. This world was unfamiliar to him. She hoped he could acclimate soon.
Amber faked a stomach ache when she was in her first class. She went to the nurse and requested to go home. She told the nurse she was about to start her period and was cramping badly.
The nurse gave her some pain medicine and let her go home to rest. A lot of young women had debilitating cramps on the first day of their period. It was a good excuse.
Amber called a taxi and used her sister's credit card to pay for it. On the way home, she stopped at a men's clothing store and got a pair of clothes she thought would fit Nick.
He had a good figure and was tall, so she had to guess the sizes. She bought sports clothes that would stretch just in case she got the size wrong. She got some sandals for him so they would be easier for him to wear.
When she got home Nick came running up to her in excitement. It had only been a few hours, but he missed her. She was worried the neighbors would see this mostly naked man hugging her.
"Take me inside!" Nick carried her and the bags she had inside the house and closed the door. He took her back to her bedroom and gently placed her on the water bed.
Amber was used to the waves in the water bed, so she stabilized quickly and patted the spot next to her. "Sit down, I bought some clothes for you." She handed the bags to Nick and he set them aside. He was more interested in reuniting with Amber at the moment!
Nick leaned closer to Amber, the water bed sunk a little and Amber was pulled closer to Nick. He embraced Amber and breathed in her scent. He had missed her for months in the beast world. As much as he was excited to see her, he was also wanting to be intimate with her.
He thought about how she had promised him a litter of cubs when they returned to the castle. Their plans were interrupted by a certain blue merman, but they were all alone now in her world.
Nick started to kiss Amber and undress her. She did not object and let out soft moans. Nick was Amber's first husband and he knew her the best. He worshiped her body until the bed broke.
Amber was scared, but Nick caught her before she fell to the ground. "I'm sorry Amber. I will fix it." Amber just laughed. She was feeling the afterglow and was still a little euphoric.
"It's ok. We can get a new one. My sister told me I can spend as much money as I need to. She gave me her credit card." Nick was confused but didn't argue with Amber.
She knew this world better than him. He wasn't even sure how to fix the bed, but he would try. There was a tree in the backyard he could use to make wood planks.
Amber seemed to understand his thinking, "We can't cut down the tree in the backyard. My mother would not be happy. It's better to just go buy a new one or get some wood planks from the store."
Luckily the water bed did not leak, it was just the wooden frame. Amber didn't know if it could be fixed, but she knew of a few furniture stores. Now, they had to get it before her mom and sister got home.
Amber gave Nick the new clothes for him to get dressed. She went to wash up and get ready to go furniture shopping. Nick had a little trouble figuring out the new clothes.
He smelled them and they did not smell like fur or any plants he knew of. They had a slight chemical smell that he had never smelled before. Amber saw him smelling the clothes.
"Usually I wash the clothes first, but it should be fine to wear them for now. You can't go out in your loincloth. Men in my world don't wear those outside of their homes."
She cringed to think of any other man wearing a loin cloth. Lol! Speedos at the beach were bad enough! The men in this world were not as good-looking as beast men, and this world was more conservative than the beast world.
Amber helped Nick get dressed and explained what the clothes were. She bought him some blue gym shorts and a white tank top with brown leather sandals. He looked like he was ready to go to the beach.
They lived in a beach town, so he would not stand out too much. Amber wore a light blue summer dress and sandals to match Nick. He smiled when he noticed they matched.
Nick decided the clothes in this world were not bad. They had more colors and fabrics to choose from. Amber called a taxi and they went to a furniture store that offered same-day delivery.
Nick was a little cautious about getting into the taxi cab at first. He saw the male in the front of the car and let out a low warning growl. He would not allow any other males to steal away his mate.
Amber placed her hand on his bicep and whispered close to his ear, "It's ok. He is the driver. He is not trying to steal me away." Nick calmed down and followed Amber into the car. He kept a close watch on the driver the entire ride.
The driver felt an invisible threat behind him and turned down the ac in the car. He was still sweating and his neck hair was standing up. His body was naturally reacting to an instinctual threat.
He tried to focus on driving and not make any sudden sounds.
Amber just sat quietly and calmly stroked Nick's arm to let him know it was fine. She did not know what else to do. They arrived at the furniture store and Amber paid the driver. He was still shaky when he thanked her and drove off quickly.
Nick humped and looked triumphant that he scared away a lesser male. Amber just sighed and took his hand. She led him into the store. Nick was amazed to see all of the new buildings and things inside the store.
He held on to Amber's hand to comfort himself. He hoped she would not disappear if he was holding on to her.
A salesman in his mid 40's with a beer belly came up to them. "How can I help you today little lady?" He smelled like smoke and tuna fish sandwiches. Nick made a face that he was disgusted.
Amber quickly told him what she needed. "My water bed frame broke. It's a California King wooden frame. Do you have any replacements available for delivery today?"
The salesman leered at Amber and thought of the reason the bed frame broke. He looked at Nick and noticed his ferocious eyes staring back at him. He straightened up and changed his face to a professional smile.
"Let me show you what we have in stock." Amber and Nick followed the man to the water bed section. Luckily there was one that looked similar to the one she had at home. "I'll take this one. Can it be delivered today before 5?"
The salesman was a little hesitant, but he looked at Nick and felt the invisible pressure. "Sure thing! We can deliver it within the next few hours. We will even install it and haul away the old one for free."
Amber was relieved. Hopefully, her mom wouldn't find out! That would be an awkward conversation. Amber paid for the bed frame and filled out the delivery paperwork with her address.
Nick watched quietly and was amazed that Amber knew how to write. The beast world did not have written language. His female was brilliant!
They left the store and Amber decided to take Nick on a tour of her city for the next few hours. She wanted to show him her favorite places in her world.
They took a taxi downtown. This time it was a female driver and Nick was not worried. Amber was polite to the driver and asked to go to the Aquarium.
They drove to the downtown aquarium. It was located near the bayfront. They could walk to the Water Gardens and the Art Museum.
