Chapter 39 - Chapter 39

Time passed by, as it always seemed to. I sat back and watched as they rebuilt the house even larger than before. With Tanner's evolution, the construction went quickly, and no sooner did he build a house than a barn went up. Right in front of my eyes, I watched as the empty field turned into a complete farm. They even had pigs and cows.

Shortly after getting livestock, he brought them down to drink from my pond. I didn't want those dirty, nasty things craping on my shores and dirtying my water. I squirted his animals and chucked fish at him until the entire batch fled. He apologized and from then on used the well pump to water his animals. This left me content and our relationship reached an equilibrium. He still occasionally brought me fish in recompense. One fish he brought me was evolved, and I was able to use it to spurn the evolution of several of my other fish.

However, that still wasn't enough to level. Although my pond was fully stocked, killing fish didn't give me much experience. Instead, I was focused on raising kingfish. Those were the paths I was going to use to grow stronger. I spent most of my days doing that, although every once in a while, a little girl would come to my shores and play in the water. At first, her parents would desperately pull her away, but when I didn't show any signs of spurting water at her or chucking fish, they slowly gave her more leeway.

She was lucky I controlled everything. She liked taking drinks from my pond. That water would have been filthy if it was anyone but me. My water was more than a spring, and I even made it nice and cool in the summers and warm in the winters. Her continuing presence had caused me to think about creating a safe area for her to swim. I didn't want it to be a part of the rest of my pond, so I started working on segregating a piece of my pond.

Since I was curious and bored, I used fibrous material and plants and partitioned off a piece of the pond, creating a small, shallow pool. At this point, the temperature was dropping and it was a bit too cold to swim. Thus, I used my Decoupling to heat things. At first, I just wanted to keep the pool lukewarm, but then I started to challenge myself on how hot I could make it.

It required some trial and error, and I needed to create cells resistant to high heat to be able to regulate and increase temperature, but I was eventually able to create the equivalent of a hot spring. Even though this didn't end up becoming the kiddy pool I intended, I decided to just go with it. I started to construct my spa tub. I couldn't personally sit in and enjoy the tub, but I learned a lot about its construction. By the time I was done, I had managed to create bubble jets and even use Bioluminescence so there was lighting.

One day in the middle of fall while Tanner was making his monthly donation, he noticed the hot tub and finally was compelled to ask questions. "Is that safe?"

I made bubbles.

"Would you mind? Could I bath in it?"

I hesitated for a bit, but then I realized it'd be a complete shame to make such a thing and for no one to ever enjoy it. I created some bubbles, and he immediately stripped down and jumped in it. I was glad my sensory cell bodies were not very effective in high heat. I didn't want to have to feel his naked body. One of the reasons I disliked the animals was because I did feel stuff in the pool, and I didn't like the feeling of being licked by a dozen animals. In the case of someone swimming in me, I could feel their entire body and even know their dimensions. That was fine for a pretty girl, but even if I had no sexual orientation as a biome, I didn't swing that way with men. Tanner's muscular and fit body was not something I wanted to fixate on, so cranked up the steam and looked the other way.

He let out a few grunts and sighs as he relaxed. He only spent an hour there before he got up and left. That was for the best. I heard people could pass out if they were in hot tubs too long, and I had no intention of tossing his naked ass out onto the shore. He thanked me and I thought that was the end of it, but then the next night, I heard a female giggling as the sunset. I looked to see Tanner bringing his wife down from the house. I didn't have to get close to realize they had been drinking. Carolina was wearing a cute summer dress, and her husband was already shirtless.

"Come on, it will feel great. Take off your clothes." Tanner encouraged her.

I perked up. Now, things were getting interesting. Ahem, this was purely for academic pursuits. The last time I had gotten close and personal with Carolina was when she had the baby. She was only a teen girl then. Since then, she had lost that baby weight and grown into a mature young woman, just how I liked it. I merely wanted to see how the young Carolina had developed. There was nothing perverted about it.

Carolina hesitated at the water line, but her husband stripped down to nothing, and dove into the hot water. He came back up for air and laughed, gesturing for her to join him. I might have complained about him not asking me in other conditions, but sometimes it was nice to help a brother out.

"It's not that cold. Come on. Get in!" He shouted.

Carolina slowly undressed, and I got a great view of her body. She was thin, with plump boobs, a flat stomach, and wide hips. Her hair was long and straight. Damn, how long had it been since I last saw a naked woman? I had almost forgotten how much I appreciated the female body. She seemed to be able to feel my eyes on her, as she quickly put a hand over her chest, and then took a step in, letting Tanner help guide her down. Soon, they both emerged to their necks. I decided to crank up the water pressure, causing bubbles to rise to the surface. Tanner let out a laugh, while Carolina nearly jumped into his arms.

"What is this feeling?" She squealed.

"Isn't it great? This feels even better than a hot spring." Tanner leaned back, enjoying the feel of waterjets on his back.

"Is it safe?" Carolina asked worriedly.

"Of course. Why else would I take you here?"

If I had a face, I'd have given him a strange look. He had no clue if it was safe. I could be boiling them so I could eat them, and he'd have no idea. The guy did trust me though, which made me feel a bit complicated inside. I didn't trust anyone, even myself. It was a good policy, so I felt uncomfortable having someone else's trust.

"I don't know… this just appeared out of nowhere. Carolina continued to fret.

"Don't worry about it!" Tanner reached out and grabbed her hips, pulling her to him.

She cried out as she put her on his knee. I was suddenly really irritated by my lack of sensation. The hot pool blurred my senses, so I couldn't get a good view of everything that was going on down there. Tanner pulled his wife in and kissed her passionately, and I saw her legs move, so she must have been straddling his waist. I wanted to get a closer view. Academic! It was academic.

"Mmmmm…" Carolina made sexy erotic noises as she kissed her husband.

The bubbles intensified. Their kisses grew sloppy and wet, and their hands explored each other's bodies. Tanner pulled one of her boobs out of the water, and the sudden exposure to the air made her nipple pop up. He pinched and played with her pink nipple, and I was glad to see her body respond. Her back arched, and she leaned her head back, enjoying his touch.

"Aaaahhh…"

Hot! Yummy! Get in there! My jet erupted, sending water right at her snatch. She cried out, clamping her legs together.

"What's wrong?" Tanner asked.

I instantly realized I had gone too far. It had been too long, and I had gotten too excited. The bubbles all noticeably decreased. Carolina's face became filled with reluctance. I had blown it.

"C-can we finish in bed?" Her face turned pink.

"Bed?" His eyes widened. "You mean, you want to…"

She nodded. "I want you… ahhh!"

Tanner didn't seem to notice her sudden changes. Instead, he was driven by his horniness. He grabbed her and picked her up. She let out a cry which turned into laughter as he left the pool. I could see his thing sticking out, and I wished he had left that in the water. Well, that would mean it was inside me. That was gross too. He carried his wife up the hill and into their bedroom, while I was left alone.

That turned out a disaster. I had ended up cucking myself there. No, I was doomed at the start. I didn't even have a penis to get off. I had never tried to replicate such nerve tissue. Even if she was willing, I'd have never been satisfied.

The next morning, Tanner came early in the morning with a towel on and a bounce in his step, only to find that the hot tub had been torn apart. It took a few fish to the face, but he finally gave up. Thus ended his hot spring adventures.
