Chapter 24: Getting a Little Frisky
The early morning sun shined down on the rainforest the next day. It reflected off the waterfall pool, making it seem like it was sparkling. It beamed into the cave, where Jake and Neytiri were asleep. He was on his back while she was snuggled up to him. She had her head on his chest and her arm draped over it. He had his arms around her.
Jake stirred in his sleep and opened his eyes slowly. He found blurry vision and groaned annoyingly. He blinked multiple times to clear it. He saw the sunlight on the wall. He looked down at Neytiri, who moved her head a little bit. She bent her knee somewhat before letting out a long yawn. She smacked her lips and sighed in much content.
He couldn't help but smile. He thought his mate looked like an angel. He found it amazing how she could be strong, fierce, and intimidating one minute and become vulnerable, compassionate, and gentle the next. He recalled all the bad mood swings she had while pregnant with Neteyam, Lo'ak, Zeus, Roxanne, and Tuktiery. He barely escaped being hit by fruit she had thrown at him several times. He remembered her telling him Mo'at did the same to Eytukan while she was pregnant with Sylwanin and her and that he got hit twice.
His thoughts shifted to last night. He considered to be the best night he'd had in a long time. He was amazed how they made love eight times. They did it three times before they fell asleep. He knew they could not get enough of each other. In fact, it had been a while since they had been sexually intimate due to caring for patients and tending to their children. He felt grateful to have gotten away from Awa'atlu as it allowed them to have time alone. Moreover, neither of them had to worry about thanators hunting them for a meal.
He started thinking about the children. He believed Lo'ak was making breakfast with Kiri's help at the moment. He hoped none of them did anything stupid while he and his mate were gone. This was especially true for Spider because fragility continued to be a big worry for her. He had no doubt she would be this way, no matter how old the boy got. He was glad she had so much compassion for him.
Jake snapped out of his thoughts. He knew he needed to wake Neytiri up, so they could head home. He wished he did not have to do that because he really wanted them to stay here. However, he knew he must because they were needed to help with medical care for the patients, especially him. He looked down at her and began shaking her. She groaned and opened her eyes. She glanced up at him.
"Good morning, Neytiri," he said sweetly.
"Good morning yourself, Jake," she answered and looked around. She made eye contact with him. "How are you doing?"
"I feel great. What about you?" Jake wondered with a raised eyebrow.
"I feel great as well," Neytiri commented truthfully. "I think I could do a bunch of backflips right now."
"I think I could too. Of course, we'd end up in the pool if we did them out of this cave," Jake teased.
"That is true," Neytiri agreed. "If we were to do backflips through the forest, we'd have to watch out for objects that could be in our way."
"We can move them or go around them," Jake said with much pride.
"Hey. It's not the Na'vi way to show too much pride," Neytiri scolded playfully.
"It's not the human way either," Jake said, moving his eyebrows up and down. "Then again, I do not give a shit. I will show as much pride as I want."
He pinched her butt hard with a loud snicker. She smacked him on the chest, an annoyed groan leaving her mouth.
"If you pinch my butt again, you will pay for it," Neytiri warned while curling her hand into a fist.
"Okay," Jake said and smiled. He gave her butt another pinch, this time being harder. "Oops. My hand forgot." He pinched it again. "Oops. My hand forgot."
She gritted her teeth. "All right. You asked for it."
He lifted his head some. "Bring it on. I dare you."
Neytiri pressed her fist in between her mate's eyes. He groaned and laid down. He spread his arms out eagle style. He twitched twice before losing consciousness. She took a closer to look at him. She screamed at his regaining consciousness and grabbing her to pull her on him. She smacked him in the head.
"You are so mean, Jake!" Neytiri scolded in a playful way.
"I am proud to be mean!" Jake said, sitting up in which it caused her to do the same. "There is no way you are changing me."
She growled in mock annoyance and kissed him tenderly. She wrapped her arms around his neck, as did he around her waist with his. He slipped his tongue into her mouth, causing her to groan. They broke apart and gasped for air.
"I have to say last night was the best night I'd had in a long time," Neytiri whispered sweetly.
"It sucks we don't have nights like this often anymore," Jake muttered regretfully.
"We've been so busy caring for war patients and our children," Neytiri admitted, blinking twice. "It can be a bit hard to be intimate with each other."
"I can safely say you were like a force of nature last night," Jake said, kissing her temple.
"So were you," Neytiri replied. "Of course, I was the bigger force of nature."
He shook his head. "No, you weren't."
She nodded. "Yes, I was."
He emitted a playful growl and kissed her tenderly. He pressed his forehead against hers. They inhaled each other's scents for thirty seconds before pulling away from each other.
"I love you so much," Jake said lovingly.
"I love you too," Neytiri responded. "Now and forever."
Neytiri kissed Jake in a gentle way. She made the kiss passionate very quickly. She slipped her tongue into his mouth, making him groan. He took hold of her arms. He gripped them somewhat tightly.
"Neytiri, we really need to—" Jake started. He groaned at her kissing his neck. He became louder when she sucked on it. "Oh, please. Don't stop."
"I won't," Neytiri declared while nuzzling his throat. "You can count on that."
Neytiri captured Jake's lips in another kiss. She plunged her tongue into his mouth. This made him groan. She slid her hands up and down his body at such a slow pace that it seemed she was not even doing that. Their hearts began to pound against their chests. In fact, they appeared about ready to leap out and land on the ground next to them.
The lovebirds broke their lip lock for air. Neytiri grabbed her queue and held it, as did Jake with his. The tendrils reached out to each other eagerly. They formed tsahaylu. They felt every bit of their pleasure rushing through each other veins. They looked at each other, lusting flashing in their eyes. They pressed their foreheads together, their breathing becoming hard and heavy.
Jake and Neytiri engaged in a series of passionate kisses. She pushed him down on his back, getting on top of him. She placed her legs on either side of him while maintaining their lip lock. She slid her hands into his dreads. She grabbed fistfuls of it. He moved his into her braids in which he gripped them tightly. Their tongues touched lightly, and they let out loud groans.
She kissed her way to his ear, fierce growls coming from her. She traced it with her tongue. She nibbled on it very lightly. He groaned pleasurably as he moved his hands to her shoulders. He gripped them so hard that he believed he'd bruise them. She nuzzled his jawline. She blew on it in a gentle way. She kissed to his neck. She proceeded to nibble on it. He tilted his head to the side, sighing in much ecstasy. He tightened his grip on her shoulders slightly.
She trailed kisses to his neck. She bit down on it hard. He winced in a painful way, only to sigh in relief when she blew on it. He knew a mark would be there later, but he didn't care. He just cared about being with his mate right now and that nothing could keep them apart. She went to his earlobe to nibble on it. He whimpered softly yet excitedly. She kissed him with much passion. She pushed her tongue into his mouth. She traced every inch of it. He moaned in much ecstasy. She headed down to his chest. She licked up and down three times. His breathing became shudders.
She kissed him and teased his tongue with hers. She chuckled when he groaned. She laid her hands on his chest and rolled his nipples in her hands, hardening them. She leaned down and stopped below the left nipple. She licked from underneath to above it. She traveled to above the right nipple and downward to underneath it. He growled in a low yet intense way. She came to his eye level. She kissed him passionately. Their tongues fought each other. Loud groans came out their mouths. They hugged each other tightly. They did not want to let go.
"Shit!" Jake whispered seductively. He groaned at his mate's kissing his neck. He shuddered when she nibbled on it. "Yes. That feels amazing."
Neytiri gave his neck a long lick and blew on it. "That's it, Jake. Let every bit of it out."
Jake and Neytiri kissed in great passion again. He turned their bodies until he was on top of her and in between her legs. He trailed kisses to her neck. He nibbled on it before giving it a long lick. He licked his way up to her ear to nibble on it. He was gentle at first, but he increased the pressure. She grabbed at his dreads. She titled her head to the side. She was unable to keep a soft whimper from leaving her mouth. They felt the familiar fire building within their veins.
He pulled back to look her in the eye. He leaned down to lick from the right breast's underside to the top of it. He moved back and forth four times. She screamed pleasurably as she rolled her head back into the ground. She became louder when he teased her nipple with his tongue. He fondled her left breast. He rolled the nipple against his hand.
Jake turned toward the other breast's underside. He licked from there to the top of it. He moved back and forth the same number of times as before. She whimpered softly yet excitedly. She moved her hands into his dreads and gripped them a bit tightly. She felt his lips on her. She wrapped her arms around his neck. She pulled his weight down on top of her.
He broke the kiss, a lustful growl coming from him. He moved back before leaning down. He kissed her right inner thigh. He nibbled on it before blowing on it. He alternated between nibbling and sucking on it. He gave it a hard bite. She hissed huskily while grabbing at the moss. He looked at her left inner thigh. He lavished it with the same amount of attention. He bit on it more lightly. She whimpered softly.
He looked at her entrance. He rubbed his face against it before giving it two long licks. He nibbled on it gently. He ran his tongue up and down the flesh five times. This caused her to sigh pleasurably. He slipped his tongue inside her to fondle her wet folds. He went slowly at first, but he became ravenous. He became so ravenous that it seemed he would lap every bit of her up. He used his tongue to tease her clit.
Neytiri moved her hips with her mate's motions and tightened her grip on the moss. She got faster at his upping his speed. He gave her clit a hard bite. She screamed ecstatically as she came. He growled softly as every bit of her climax flowed through his veins. She became so lost in it that she couldn't breathe. She came down from her high, a sated feeling rushing through her body. She saw him come back to her eye level.
Jake captured Neytiri's lips in a passionate kiss. She pushed her tongue past his lips, wanting to taste her sweetness. She smiled into his mouth when he moaned softly. She turned their bodies until she was on top of him. She broke the kiss and stared at his erect cock. She reached down to grab it. She twisted her hands around it. She went slowly at first, but she became faster. She began pumping him. He groaned in much intensity. He grabbed at the moss, his teeth clenching.
"Neytiri, you need to stop. I've got to be inside you," Jake said urgently.
"Good. I want you to be inside me so badly that I can taste it," Neytiri growled in much seduction.
He hissed. "Then allow me to do it now. I can't waste another second."
Neytiri nodded at her mate before balancing herself on her hands and knees. He took himself in hand while exhaling sharply. She lowered herself toward his tip, her breathing turning into shudders. She swallowed hard and bit her lip. He held himself in hand until he felt her buttocks against it. She sighed at feeling the tip of him against her entrance. She descended until he was sheathed to the hilt.
She started to move up and down on him almost immediately. She flared her nostrils. She gritted her teeth and put her hands above his shoulders. He grabbed her hips as he clenched his teeth. He moved her on him while meeting her movements with his. They moaned in much ecstasy. They emitted shuddering breaths. They would never get enough of each other. They would always want more.
She pressed a hard kiss to his lips. He sat up as he slid one hand into her braids and the other to the small of her back. He thrusted upward into her in which he grew rough and fast. He kissed her neck. He sucked on it hard. He gave it gentle nibbles. He traced it with his tongue before biting it hard. He saw her wincing as music to his ears. She threw her head back at his touching her breasts. He fondled them slowly at first, but he went faster. She let out a heady moan. He pinched her nipples gently. He gave them more pinches, this time being harder. She gasped ecstatically when he teased the right nipple with his tongue. Her mate repeated his action with the left one. They felt the fire climbing higher within them. In fact, they thought they would lose it right there.
Neytiri pushed Jake on his back roughly. She kissed him very hard in which she plunged her tongue into his mouth. She traced every inch of it. He emitted a loud groan. She used her tongue to tease his ear. She nibbled on it before running her tongue along it. He laid his hands on her shoulders to squeeze them tightly. She kissed down to his chest before rolling his nipples in her hands. She smiled when he let out a heady moan. She rolled his left nipple with her tongue. She gave it a hard bite. He growled loudly and intensely. He became louder at her repeating her actions on his right nipple.
Jake and Neytiri felt the fire within them reaching its peak. She came to his eye level to kiss him possessively. Their tongues battled each other for dominance. She broke their lip lock. She pulled back and looked at him. She braced her hands on his chest as she moved on him rougher and faster. He grabbed the lower part of her arms. They stared deep into each other's eyes.
"Shit," he groaned with great sexual intensity. "Fuck! Yes. Yes!"
"Good boy, Jake," she said with a smile. "Say yes."
Neytiri became faster in her movements. Jake increased the tightness of his grip on her arms. He groaned when she got even faster. She threw her head back as her climax. This triggered his, causing him to come with such a loud moan that he sent an echo through the cave and outside. Their bodies trembled so much that it seemed they would not be able to stop. Their breathing came out in hard and fast pants.
Neytiri was unable to stay up and collapsed on top of her mate. She pressed her forehead against his. They shared three tender kisses. She moved off him and laid on her side. He turned over on his to face her. She sighed contently at his running his hand over her braids. She traced circles into his shoulder and breathed deeply. Their heartbeats returned to normal. She blinked three times.
"Shit," he whispered while playing with a braid. "That is the most amazing lovemaking session we've had ever since we arrived here."
"Oh, yes," she agreed. She slid her hand to the top of his and patted his hand in much gentleness. "It will only get better as time goes on."
"I can't deny that," Jake said with a soft chuckle. "I have to say it's not every day couples who have been together for a short while get married or mated."
"Some couples are just meant to be together from the start," Neytiri whispered joyfully. "Sometimes, they split up to see if they are really meant for each other."
He raised his eyebrows. "That's true. I remember each time your stomach got too big for us to make love the regular way. We did it in other positions."
"I didn't mind that one bit," Neytiri said and cleared her throat. "I was so eager to do it in other positions during each pregnancy, especially from behind. I enjoyed it so much. I still do."
"So do I," Jake said and kissed the tip of her nose.
She giggled delightfully. "I love you so much."
"I love you too," Jake murmured with much love. "Marriage or mating is known to be a big adjustment."
"We've managed just fine over the last nineteen years," Neytiri admitted with a soft sniffle. She wiped a tear from her eye, her breathing turning to shudders. "I would have killed you if that atokirina had not landed on the tip of my arrow."
"But you didn't," Jake said comfortingly. He kissed her forehead twice and entwined her fingers with his. "We are here. We are mated for life. We have kids."
"I am so thrilled to be your mate and the mother of your kids," Neytiri said in much happiness.
"I feel the same way as your mate and the father of your kids," Jake murmured and pressed another kiss to her forehead. He rubbed it very gently before letting out a soft sigh. "You better not let me go, Neytiri."
Neytiri nodded at him. "I won't, Jake. Never."
Neytiri kissed Jake possessively while pushing him on his back. She climbed on top of him in which she got her legs on either side of him. He moaned excitedly when she plunged her tongue into his mouth. Their hearts started to beat faster. Fire began to build within their veins. Their pleasure rushed through each other rapidly. She went to his ear and licked at it. She nibbled on it before tracing it with her tongue. She blew on it. She smiled at a heady moan coming from him. He slid his hands into her braids. He grabbed fistfuls of it.
She kissed him once more while moving her hands up and down his sides. She grabbed his butt and squeezed it hard. He groaned against her lips. He kissed to her shoulder and sucked on it. He returned to them. He pushed his tongue into her mouth. He smiled at her groaning softly. He sat up while growling lustfully. He maintained his grip on her braids. She pulled away from him to stare deep into his eyes.
"Mine," he hissed in a fierce way. "You are mine."
She shuddered. "Yes. You're mine as well."
The lovebirds kissed long and hard. He fondled her breasts slowly yet surely. He rolled her nipples in his hands, hardening them. He planted butterfly kisses on her neck. He sucked on it before blowing on it. She moaned in ecstasy while throwing her head back. He squeezed her breasts, causing her to gasp in delight. They engaged in passionate kissing. Their hands wandered and groped everywhere as their tongues dueled each other for control. They became engaged in another lovemaking session.
