"It'll never be the same, James... because I know you love me... truly love me, and never would dream of hurting me. When we make love... it really is that.", Tara replied warmly and surely.
Bucky exhaled, smiling softly, "Okay...", slowly moving and took his legs over and under, caressing her hips gently and lovingly, lifting them slightly as he lined himself up, and looked at Tara who smiled at him, nodding.
He moved forward, penetrating slowly and gently, hearing a gasp of surprise and slight pain, and Bucky stopped, "Tara?", and Tara caressed his chin, "It's alright. Keep going.".
Bucky nodded as he took a deep breath before going further, waiting for the slightest sign that Tara wanted to stop as he reached as far as he could inside her, "You still alright?".
Tara nodded and smiled, "So... this is how it's supposed to work.". She teared up with joy. Bucky smiled, seeing her joy at being treated like a real woman, and he caressed her skin, kissing her everywhere as he slowly and gently thrusted back and forth.
Tara moaned and gasped out in pleasure, wrapping her hands around his back, her fingers clenching into the skin. "How are you feeling?", Bucky asked as he continued to slowly thrust.
"I feel good, James... it's... this is how I imagined it would be.", Tara continued to tear up. "I'm sorry it couldn't be perfect...", Bucky kissed her lips. "But I'm going to make sure it's as close to it as possible.".
Tara smiled, "I know you will, my wolfman.", before crying out in pleasure as her G-spot is hit, "Oh, James, yes, right there!". Bucky nodded, "As you wish, my aurora.", increasing his thrusts in speed as he leaned to kiss her skin everywhere, keeping one hand on her hip, and moving his other hand to caress and squeeze her breast.
The two of them kept that up for what felt like many minutes; both were overwhelmed with pleasure as Bucky continued to please and fill her with love that she rightfully had deserved. Almost a good thirty minutes passed before both of them slowly were starting to feel their limits.
Tara whimpered out in pleasure, "I can feel it coming, James!", and Bucky kissed her neck, "You're getting so tight, Tara.", feeling his rod getting so tight and filled with his seed, her walls constricting around him.
"Please, go faster!", Tara begged, wrapping her arms tighter around him, and Bucky smiled, "If you can hold it.", before grunting as he grabbed into her hips a bit firmer, thrusting faster, hearing Tara's muffled moans and cries of pleasure, and Bucky held back his groans and growls as he kept a tight hold on his rod's control.
10 minutes later, Tara pleaded, "I can't hold it any longer!", and Bucky nodded, "Me neither.", leaning in to hug her tightly as he thrusted hard for one more minute before Tara shouted out in pleasure, finally erupting out with her orgasm in full force, the constrictions squeezing Bucky's rod so hard as he shouted out a moment later, pleasure shooting through him as he erupted out, load after load of sperm.
As the couple collapsed in ecstasy and pleasure, the crowd of sperm filled the womb, finding the fetus, and tried to get in, but the membrane and the water bag was too strong for the crowd, and they turned around and around, looking for a way in before finding the uterine wall, digging in and pushing through.
Three sperms found the cord that led from the uterine wall to the baby, and infused into one big sperm, containing Quantonium, the werewolf genes, and Bucky's genes that is having a female chromosome, swimming through the cord, and went into the baby, deep into the DNA molecules.
The section of Quantonium in the baby sensed the desires of Bucky, and agreed to the changes he wanted to do for Tara's sake and the baby's sake, and the sperm infused into the molecules, wiping out Derek's DNA completely, switching them with Bucky's DNA, the Quantonium giving the baby more rapid-aging and size-changing power, the werewolf genes labeling the baby as a cub, and the female chromosome completely changed the baby's male identity to a female identity, destroying the male genitals, and bringing forward a reproductive female system, complete with the bundle of nerves that will be its womanhood in the future.
Of course, all of this gave her the hiccups, causing her to bring attention for the first time to Tara and Bucky in the middle of their cuddling time as the process took an hour from the moment Bucky erupted.
Tara opened her eyes as she knew something was off. "Did... did I just feel him kick?", Tara asked as she felt her belly. "I'm not sure...", Bucky admitted, his hands weren't on her at that moment even while they were cuddling.
Tara blinked in curiosity, "Feels like he's kicking really sharp, almost like he's having hiccups.", and Bucky blinked in surprise, "That's kinda early for kicking as you're in your first trimester...Let me check something out.", before shifting into his werewolf form, sniffing deeply as he nuzzled and listened to her baby bump before widening his eyes, unknowing that it's his daughter kicking.
"Oh, my god...I don't smell Derek's scent anymore...I smell mine instead...", Bucky spoke in shock and bewilderment. Tara's eyes widened. "Are... are you sure?"
"Well, maybe I'm not as attuned with scents as, say, Mo can be, but I like to think I'm getting better, but... I'm serious, I can't smell Derek's scent...". Both of them were absolutely stunned with disbelief as Tara started to feel a strange tingling sensation; remembering what Bucky had mentioned before about the Quantonium.
Suddenly, over a few minutes, her baby bump grew bigger, somewhat creating stretch marks, with growing up to the width of five months, and Tara gasped as the kicks was more pronounced, and she feels heavier.
"Oh my...", Tara muttered. "Jeez, he's growing fast... as quick as Susan or Henry almost...", Bucky observed.
"He's a Quantonium baby for sure now...", Tara gave a small chuckle before she felt another kick, then a few more, "What's the matter? Something wrong?", rubbing her baby bump in concern.
Bucky took another sniff before his eyes widened, "I think I know why this one is upset... he's not he anymore.".
Tara widened her eyes, "You mean it's a girl now?", and Bucky nodded, exhaling, "...I think it was because of me...By taking you as my mate, this baby is ours, officially...She's our daughter...Our cub...".
Gasping in shock, "We...we wiped Derek away from our lives...literally.", Tara sobbed happily as she still rubbed her now big baby bump, and Bucky kissed her deeply, "Yes, we did...", before kissing her baby bump, chuckling as a kick then came where he kissed, "Hello, our baby girl...You are surprising us...".
"We are going to have to explain so much when we get back to Modesto...", Tara chuckled as she sighed... "I'm probably going to go back to being huge again though if Doc is right that I can't shrink down like all the rest of you because of our child.".
Bucky shook his head, "I don't think so...I mean, you remained to be 10 ft tall all this time...I think it's not just the growing, but also the size-changing...I mean, before, when it was a boy and all, it was only half Quantonium, hence the stuck thing at 25 ft tall to 50 ft tall, but now, with my extra Quantonium in the mix, also with the fact that it's a girl, I think you are now free to be 10 ft tall because our daughter is now super-strong and everything...".
Tara looked at him in surprise, before looking thoughtful for a moment, smiling, "Actually, that makes sense on all levels...", before rubbing again on her baby bump, lovingly caressing it, "I can't believe it...We actually did it...We're mates, we're a family...Oh, James.", squeezing his hand with her other hand, "I love you.".
Bucky smiled, coming to hold her in his arm again, kissing her deeply and tenderly before breaking for air, "I love you too, and I love our daughter...", joining her hand on the baby bump, massaging it as the baby kept hiccupping.
Remembering a song his mother sang to him, he then began to sing in a warm, tender voice as they kept cuddling and massaging the baby bump, feeling the kicks diminish slowly until they only showed occasionally to send the message that their daughter is now sleeping...
Tara smiled warmly, "One thing for sure, James, you're a hundred times better in being a father than Derek or anyone else.", and Bucky chuckled, "Somehow, it feels natural to me...almost like how Steve is with Susan and Henry...Oh, boy...The family dynamics is going to be complicated...".
"Yeah... I'm clearly mated with my adoptive sister's uncle who's unrelated by blood.", Tara chuckled. "Well, I'm sure it'll be fine... I'm sure my parents will at least accept you; especially if they know the truth about Derek. Can't do much worse than him, can I?".
Bucky shook his head, "No, you can't.", with a chuckle before kissing her nose, "You look so beautiful, T, carrying our daughter...", before looking thoughtful, "You know what? Since we now know that we're going to have a baby girl, and we literally made a new life together in this cavern, I was thinking that maybe we could name her Reva...Reva Winifred Barnes-Murphy...Remember that Winifred is my mother's name? And Reva is the reverse shortened name of Cavern.".
"After everything that has happened, James... that's more than perfect for her. I think it's fitting that she's named after perhaps the place where I've mostly healed.", Tara whispered as she rubbed her belly.
"You think you'll be alright now?", Bucky asked. "It'll still take time for me to recover from Derek... but... thank God I can remember my old self and our time before; it's meaning all the world in terms of healing.", Tara sighed lightly before smiling in relief.
Bucky smiled, kissing her softly on the lips, "You will always be my aurora, Tara...Always...", before noticing that Tara is shivering slightly despite being in Bucky's arms and all, and he glanced to see the glimpse of outside, and saw that it's turning into night already...
"Come on, let's get dressed, and head back to Modesto...I bet even if Reva's sleeping, she and you must be hungry...I hope your parents went to order dinner as Susan and Mo is staying over.", Bucky smiled, getting up and gently helping Tara up as she wobbled, getting used to the new weight.
Tara smiled, "I hope they ordered pizza...I really missed that a lot.", with Bucky helping her get into her clothes, with the exception of her shirt fitting her properly due to the new weight and width of the baby bump.
Bucky smiled, "We can get something on the way back...I am sure there are still some stores open...Do you think it's okay for you to ride my back?", looking a bit concerned.
"I think as long as you take it steady and slow, I should be fine, and once I get a proper shirt on or something, I can then grow up to 50 ft, and give you a ride on my shoulder, and we'll be back in Modesto faster then.", Tara reassured him, and Bucky nodded, putting his clothes back on before shifting into his large wolf form, laying down to give Tara easier access.
"Shame my parents don't have a big truck or something, might have been able to just barely ride in it for an hour and a half.", Tara said as she got comfortable.
"I think our weight would probably break the axles... damn cars aren't built like they used to.", Bucky teased. "Yeah, but more likely to get killed driving them than today.", Tara reminded.
Bucky snorted, "Point taken.", before going into a slow sprint, watching his step as he headed out of the cavern, out of the park, sniffing before going into the right direction to Modesto. They went through forests, fields, around the backs of smaller towns, through stream bridges, and seeing that one of the fields is having one of those small fairs, they slunk through the shadows in the borders, and when someone wasn't looking, Tara took a long jacket, digging out a few old, wrinkled bills, and put them on the counter.
After getting some distance away from the fair, Tara dislodged from Bucky's back, and infusing a bit of power into the long jacket to fit her, she grew up to 50 ft, offering a hand for Bucky to get on after shifting back to human, and sat on her shoulder, holding on to the fabric as Tara then took up a bit of a fast walk, but carefully, heading for Modesto which was gratefully 5 minutes away, due to her height.
They got to the Murphy family house, with Tara putting Bucky down before shifting down to 10 ft tall, chuckling softly, "Looks like you have proven right, James...Our daughter is now happy and strong...", holding his hand before exhaling nervously as her hand twitched to rub her baby bump habitually, but held back, for the long jacket is hiding the proof of all the changes within her...
Bucky squeezed her hand, "It's gonna be okay.", smiling softly to reassure his mate, his beloved aurora, the mother of his cub...Tara nodded before opening the door, coming in, hearing voices in the dining room in the back.
Bucky closed the door, and blinked as he listened a bit harder, and then gasped as he recognized his brother's laughter while Tara called out, "Mom, Dad, I'm home!".
To Tara's surprise when she announced that, she suddenly saw Susan's father be the first in their field of vision. And almost as quickly, Steve was wrapping his arms around Bucky and hugging his brother tightly.
"Two minutes, you dumb mutt... we showed up two minutes after you left.", Steve laughed as Bucky joined in. He obviously wasn't going to say what first came to his mind. That if he stayed, Tara might have probably gone through with killing the child. No, they privately agreed that moment was going to go to the grave with them.
Bucky grinned, "Looks like I was late to miss it, but I had to stay with Tara for Susan's sake, even though I know she can take care of herself.", with a sheepish glance at Tara who smiled gratefully that Bucky followed her at Susan's orders.
Carl and Wendy came next, smiling in shock to see that their true daughter is now able to fit in the house, and was about to run to hug her when Tara held up her hands, "Wait, wait, I know you're going to do your big family hugs, Mom and Dad, but I'm at a bit of a disadvantage to hug you as normally.".
Carl raised an eyebrow, "Are you okay? Is the baby okay?", and Tara exhaled, "Susan told you, huh?", and Wendy nodded, "Every word..I understand your anger, but I am a bit disappointed in you for not believing Susan and slapping her.".
Tara exhaled, "I know...I...I got Derek to tell me...We're over...He won't be the father anymore in my life...", glancing at Bucky who smiled, nodding at her gently...Tara smiled, taking a deep breath, "James took that place.".
Carl blinked in confusion, "James?", and Bucky exhaled, "Me, Mr. Murphy...I and Tara are going to be parents together.", walking over to take Tara's hand in his, smiling, "To our daughter.".
Wendy frowned in confusion, "But Susan and Mo said that it's a boy...", and Tara shook her head, "No, Mom, we changed him to her...together...", opening the long jacket halfway to reveal her big 5-month-old baby bump, yet knowing that their daughter is only just about two-three months old technically, if the quick-aging math is right.
Wendy was lucky the couch was nearby as she suddenly just dropped on it in sheer stunned fashion. "Quantonium is a strange thing...", Peggy said. "It really just throws everything you think you know about the human body out the window.".
"So... you two?", Carl looked at Bucky as he nodded. "We have a story to tell about that. And it's also Quantonium related.", Bucky said as Carl raised an eyebrow.
"Well, I certainly want to hear it in the next few minutes but... but you didn't hurt her, did you?", Carl narrowed his eyes. "No, sir, if anything, I may have helped saved her life after what she found out with Derek.", Bucky nodded firmly.
"I really thought... I never would've thought that he...", Wendy muttered, probably still as shocked about the Derek truth from before.
Tara gently and steadily sat down near Wendy, "I know, Mom...I was stupid and naive...But if it wasn't for James, I would have felt so alone...", before blinking in surprise, and chuckling, "Looks like Reva is hungry. Did you have a good nap, little cub?", rubbing her baby bump lovingly.
Wendy looked at her, "Reva?", and Tara smiled, "Yes, her name is Reva Winifred Barnes-Murphy. Here, Mom, it's okay.", seeing the almost-desire in her mom's eyes, and Wendy smiled, slowly putting her hand on before gasping in surprise and happiness at a kick underneath her hand.
Steve looked at Bucky in shock, having recognized the middle name, and Bucky smiled, nodding, knowing how his mom fretted over Steve a few years after his mother passed away.
