The King and his wife were seated on his consort’s scepter Alvana, heading towards the monarch’s residence slowly.
“Extreme pain at being touched…” the queen pondered, “If anyone who touches Phoenix makes him feel a lot of pain, then why could his mate touch him without increasing the pain?” she wondered out loud.
“Probably because she’s a mermaid?” the king guessed, “You know, it’s rumoured that their touch is comforting to an afflicted soul,”
The queen sagely nodded, “It could be the case. I can understand that our son is a hybrid, being a wiz and Alpha Blood, that’s why there are blurs covering his special places. But his mate is the same! Since when do mermaids have blurs? That didn’t look like some sort of magic spell that shields others from seeing the private places either. It’s sort of natural,”
The king let out a defeated sigh, “Darling, you know she’s capable of producing a fireball,”
“Yeah, I saw that. Even telekinesis!”
“Lavana is actually tribrid,” the king revealed via voice transmission.
His wife widened her eyes in astonishment, “T-Tribrid?”
King Vellio nodded, “Our son told me himself. If other clans hear of this matter, it’s going to be a disaster. Best we keep this secret to ourselves,”
She nodded, “Definitely. It’s top secret!”
“You know who her parents are then? How did they produce a tribrid- a perfect hybrid!”
“That remains a mystery,” her husband replied with a sigh.

Meanwhile, the couple in the bathroom were nonplused, seeing the way the doctor fled like he was injected with chicken blood.
“Why did he run off like that?” Lavana questioned her mate with a befuddled expression.
“How… would… I know?” he slowly replied.
“Phoenix, you can talk now!” she exclaimed; her face was now one of excitement.
“I’ve… always been… able to talk. I’m… not a newborn,”
Stroking his shoulder-length hair tenderly, she answered, “Well, I’m glad you’re recovering. You know, I was so scared,”
“That… you’ll… lose me?” he asked and she nodded.
He replied, “Listen, dear, I’m… not going to leave your side. There are… so many things we haven’t done. For example, we… we haven’t mated, we haven’t… travelled the world, we… haven’t… had ten children, we haven’t had enough… opportunities to show how… much we love and cherish each other. Why the hell… would I leave? Besides, your embrace is warm. Which man would prefer… the cold and smelly hands of death, when… there’s an amazing… walking lavender to hug? No, babe, even death… will send me back to your hands,”
At this point, her eyes had become teary and she sniffed.
He shook his head, “No, don’t cry, my love,”
“I’m not going to cry,” she nodded with a sniff, “The hardest part has passed. What’s left is to nurse you back to health. I won’t cry,”
“Good girl. Come, sit on my lap, let me stroke your head for a change,” he beckoned with a smile.
“You’re sure it’s safe?” she asked with a sceptical look.
“Why’re you hesitating? You’re not usually like this,” he inquired with a raised brow but she didn’t reply to him.
Looking down and then back at her, he questioned with an amused look, “Is it because… I’m naked?”
All this time, he’d noticed that his mate was only trying her best to focus on his face. From the moment she helped him out of the tub earlier, he didn’t bother to hide his Willy like before.
He tittered, “Come on. It’s the same thing. You usually like using my lap as a pillow. Why are you hesitating this time?”
“I don’t trust your thing,” she said with a red face.
“Wow, your face’s like a ripe tomato. I think you should show this side of you more often, it’s good for your heart,” he chuckled.
“Stop it!” this time, her ears had reddened.
“Honestly dear, it’s fine if you look. My eyes have been feasting on the sight of your ravishing body. It’s not fair if you don’t do the same,” he pulled her right hand, bringing her closer to him, since she didn’t put up any resistance, otherwise, in his current state, he’d never be able to achieve this feat.
“Dear, stop looking elsewhere,” he insisted but she kept looking away.
“I don’t want to see!”
“Why?” he cocked a brow, “Do you think it looks unappealing or too small maybe?”
She vigorously shook her head, “Nope. It’s not that,”
“Are you scared of it then? It won’t bite if you look at it,”
“Phoenix, I’m not looking!”
“Doctor Alstein asked you to bathe me. How do you intend to do that? Blindfolded?” he quizzed.
“It… it feels like I’m breaking my vow. We planned to have intimacy on our wedding night and I don’t want to see your member in advance,”
“So what about me?” he questioned.
“This…”
“Alright, I won’t coerce you. The water’s hot enough. Please, help me bathe and certainly not blindfolded,” he smirked.
“Fine. But I still won’t look,”
“Sure! But you can’t avoid touching it, even if you’re blindfolded for instance,”
“Sullivan!”
“What? I’m simply stating a fact,” he chuckled.
“You’re making fun of me!”
“Don’t be shy. Just take a glance and tell me if it’s to your liking,”
“It is!”
“You didn’t look at it. How can you give a blind judgement?”
She scowled, “Are you saying I’m wrong?”
“…” he turned speechless.
“You know what? You’re right! You’ve seen me stark nude. It’s only fair if I look,” Lavana said with a harrumph after gathering enough courage in her heart.
Her mate nodded in amusement, “That’s right!”
“So I’ll look!”
“Begin,” he encouraged smilingly.
She lowered her head and stared at what she’d been trying not to see. But her face became redder and she ended up looking away.
“I’ve seen it. It’s majestic, okay!”
“How do you know when you haven’t touched it?” he teased.
“Is it going to stay in one place if I do?” she asked with a tone of doubt.
“Err… I’m not too sure about that,” he replied with frankness.
“Then why’re you encouraging me to?” she snapped.
“Calm down, dear. I was joking,” he touched his right thigh.
“The pang is much tolerable now. Hand me the soap and washcloth,” he requested.
“No need,” she held his right hand, “I don’t want you to be in any sort of pain. I’m your mate, for better or worse, I want to be with you and go through life’s hurdles together. I’ll give you a proper bath, you just need to relax, okay?”
He nodded his agreement, “Thank you, Lavie honey. I’m the luckiest man in the entire universe. What did I do to get a mate like you, huh?”
Planting a peck on his forehead, she replied softly, “Ask the moon goddess, Sullivan,”

Minutes later,
She carried her mate out of the bathroom in her arms. Both were dry.
Earlier, with Cephina’s instruction, Lavana was able to produce heat from her hands with which she dried her mate’s body. Then she did the same to herself. Using a towel to clothe herself wasn’t an option for now since contact with her mate would just turn it to ashes.NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
She gently placed him on the bed.
“Lavana thank you for sticking with me through this rough time. Because of me, you can’t wear anything. You must be uncomfortable,”
“Phoenix, don’t say such a thing. You aren’t at fault. You being alive is the best gift. And I’ll do anything to keep you safe and sound. Don’t feel sorry for me,” she soothed as she climbed onto the bed to give him a massage on his shoulders.
“Are you hungry?” she questioned. If she’s to go out, she’ll clothe herself.
“I don’t feel like eating yet. But please I don’t want you to starve yourself. Go out and get something to pacify that stomach,” Phoenix replied.
“Okay,” she nodded but didn’t stop the massage.
…
Half an hour later,
Lavana who was now dressed in a pink gown entered the room carrying two food trays. Using her leg to shut the door behind her, she looked in the direction of the bed, “Baby, I got us both…” her words couldn’t be completed as she quickly put down the trays on the couch and rushed to the bed.
Her mate was struggling to get off the bed with his hands placed on a certain spot.
“Honey, what’s wrong?” she concernedly asked.
She was ready to get help if he didn’t give a single reply.
“Lavana, please just take me to the bathroom and pour cold water all over me,” he requested via mind link.
“What?” she was stunned at his request.
After bathing with relaxing hot water, he was requesting now for cold water? She was only gone for a few minutes!
“Sullivan, why are you covering there?” she interrogated in bewilderment.
The red-faced mate of hers replied telepathically, “I-I’m… Can I not say?”
She shook her head, “No, dear. I need to know what’s happening to you,” she said with a tone laced heavily with concern.
“Fine, I’ll say. I-I’m aroused, okay! I don’t know if Doctor Alstein put slow-acting venereous pills in the soup he made me consume earlier. I was just thinking of watching you eat happily and I… Lavana just take me to the bathroom,” he implored.
It was at this juncture she recalled that doctor’s words, “perform a mate’s duties if the need arises.”
She hadn’t thought much of it, but now…
“Phoenix, before Doctor Alstein left, he did say that I should perform a mate’s duties if the need comes,” she mentioned.
On hearing this, her mate’s eyes widened.
He shook his head, “No, Lavana. You don’t need to. Cold water can help…”
“With that doctor’s nature, I don’t think cold water or those elixirs of yours would help out,” she placed him on the bed once again and made sure his back was rested on the pillows.
“You…” her mate was at a loss for words.
“Phoenix, if this is what’s required to make you get back to your peak, I would gladly do it,” she said with resolution.
“Let me see, dear,” she appealed but he stubbornly shook his head.
Having no choice, she removed his hands from the jewel they concealed, holding them up rather. He couldn’t resist, since he was short of strength at the moment.
His face and ears reddened so much now that his erect member was in full view. Lavan, on her part, widened her eyes.
Yes, she knew his Johnson was majestic but now.. it’s become more majestic by a lot and very proud!
“Lavana, you don’t need to do this. There’s a possibility cold water will do,” he whimpered, his chest heaving. He looked very much unwilling to let her do what was in her mind.
“Phoenix, please relax. It’s my first time, but I’ll do my best to turn your discomfort into pleasure, okay?” she said in a soothing tone.
At that, he slowly brought himself to nod and let out a sigh of defeat, “Alright,”
Now that she’d gotten his permission and he was no longer objecting, she braved herself for the important deed.
Positioning herself in between his legs, Lavana gently held his burning member with her right hand. Gradually and tenderly, she ran her hand up and down his penis, picking up pace slightly after a few minutes.
Then she lowered her head and began planting kisses on his balls upwards until the head of his jewel.
She licked the tip afterwards for a short while before running her hand up and down, this time with an increased pace.
Her mate bit his lower lip, so as not to let out any sound as he was being pleasured by his dear one. However, he failed woefully a few minutes later.
He let out low moans the moment she took his length into her mouth, trying to accommodate as much of it as she could. Frittering no time, she began moving her head, slurping.
“Ah… Ah… Ah… Agh…”
“Phoenix, you sound really good,” she mindlinked him, showing him a thumbs up with her free hand.
“Damn! What magic are you using?” he mind linked with a little difficulty.
“That of a fated mate,” she replied, after taking out his huge length from her mouth and resuming running her hand on it.
“Your face is super red,” she pointed out, “I think it’s excellent for your heart,” she teased.
“Can you not point that out?” he whined, letting out a moan the moment she took him into her mouth again.
“Lavana…”
“What is it, dear?” she mind lined since her mouth was full and busy.
Without a response, he grabbed a measure of her hair strands with one hand and supported himself to sit up with the other.
“Honey, at this rate, I feel the wedding day is going to take a thousand years to arrive,” he mind linked as he made her go faster up and down his Willy.
“Same here. But we have to wait for the big day to go to the next level. You’ll have to make do with this, for now, Sullivan,” she mind linked in reply.
“Are you wet?” he suddenly asked out of the blue.
“Me?”
“Don’t pretend you don’t know what I’m talking about. I can smell it, girl,”
“Mate, you have no access till a few day’s time. I promise I’m going to spread these legs of mine for you by then,”
“Oh!” he looked somewhat disappointed and she teased his look, calling him cutie.
“Why don’t you focus on the important business we have right now? I’m going to let you know one secret. Alpha blood and wiz bloods have one thing in common,”
“What is it?”
“Takes long to come!” he grinned. His previous bashful look had been cast away.
“So I have a long way ahead of me, huh?”
“Should I try to cut it short?” he suggested via mind link.
“No need!” she firmly replied.
After a long while of his mate dutifully putting him on cloud nine with her magical hands and mouth, he finally came in her mouth.
“Your fluid is much,” she mind linked after he removed his cock from her mouth. She swallowed it and found it was salty.
“And you’re quite salty,” she added, lowering her head to lick his penis clean, planting one last kiss on it.
The relieved Phoenix leaned forward to kiss her lips briefly.
“Thank you, my dear. You worked hard,” he softly said, letting her lie on the bed, with her head on the pillow.
“Anything for you, darling,” she mind linked in reply, a satisfied smile spread across her face.
