Pokemon: An Icy Path

Chapter 33



It is not too long after the tattoo appears that things start to calm down. The flame that is refining her body slowly dissipates into nothing and amazingly her skin that looked like copper fades back to her previous milky skin color. Only this time it has a bit of redness to it, like very mild sunburn or flushed from arousal. Unfortunately for Flannery, the tattoos do not fade or disappear, leaving her with bright blue markings. Her hair is still shiny and a bit more flame colored than crimson with hardly noticeable highlights of yellow and orange. 

As the last of the flames disappear, Flannery falls forward, causing me to quickly catch her. I notice that her body feels cooler than mine, but also warm, like she is giving off heat. As I look her over, I notice some stuff that looks like dirt on her body so I decide that a shared shower while she is out is in order. I take my time washing her body, checking out all the changes that happened to her. Besides the changes I have already noticed, I find that her pores are much smaller, similar to my own, giving her a flawless look almost to what I would jokingly call a jade beauty. I hear a small groan as I feel life come back into her body. Her eyes flutter open and a pair of ruby eyes that seem to shimmer like a moving flame lock onto mine and I give her a small smile.

“Good morning babe, how are you feeling?” I ask her gently.

“Like a herd of Tauros just ran over me.” She answers while snuggling into me as the water continues to splash over us. “Mmmnm, comfy. Do you know what happened? Last I remember, you were doing your part as a human humidifier and then next thing I know, all I can feel is heat and pain.”

“Well, I think I unlocked your aura but I’m not sure. I went through something similar about a year ago. That is why I need to wear my skimpy outfits.” 

“Wait, does that mean I have to wear slutty clothes as well?” She frowns a little at the thought of having to wear revealing clothing.

“Well sorry for having to dress like a slut just to be normal.” I pout and turn my head away playfully.

“W-wait! That’s not what I meant! I’m sorry!” I keep my head turned away with my cheeks puffed out trying to maintain my pout and suppress a smile. “Baabe, come on… I’m sorry.” Flannery whines with a pitiful look. I give her a hug before busting out into a fit of giggles.

“I’m only kidding. I just couldn’t resist.” She turns her head with a huff, giving me a view of her adorable pouting face. I kiss along her wet neck lovingly with a smile on my lips. A few minutes of comfortable silence pass before she speaks up again.

“So now what? What do I do with aura?”

“I don’t know.”

“What!?” She snaps her head back to look at me. Her eyes search mine looking for another joke.

“I don’t know.” I say again before shrugging and explaining further. “I have been searching for information on aura ever since I unlocked mine but any information besides the mention of it is oddly missing. I know that aura users can have special abilities and masters can replicate pokemon moves, but other than that I know nothing.”

Flannery continues to stare at me for a long while before letting out a long sigh. “Alright then, I’ll believe you.” She gives me another hug before leaning back and turning off the shower. “I think we are wet enough as is, no need to turn into an umeboshi right?” 

She stands up slowly, using my shoulders to steady herself.  She slowly lifts her arms above her head into a full body stretch that places her slit right at eye level for me to enjoy. My eyes slide across her sexy body again, enjoying everything that I see as I notice the water on her body start to shimmer and disappear off her body until she is dry just as quickly as water evaporates from my skin. I have never paid attention to what happens for me, but now that I get a front row seat to watch, I make sure that I do.

I get up a moment later, after I enjoy the eye candy of course, and do a similar stretch as she did. I step out of the bathroom a moment later and start to gather our clothes and the sheets and toss them in the washer, so we both have something clean to wear. I check the time on my phone and see it is still early. I grab Flannery's hand and go back to the bed and snuggle with her while we wait for the laundry to finish. 

Even though we are both naked in a heavily air conditioned room, neither of us try to cover up and just lay on the bed, my head on her chest as she softly pets my hair. Skadi, noticing that there is room on the bed now, hops up and lays behind my legs, resting her head on my calf and falling asleep. We just quietly snuggle and doze letting time melt away.

Some time later, I awake to the sound of the washer unit going off. Ignoring the sound I nuzzle into the cool thing beside me and sigh in contentment. I stir again when I feel a hand on my head causing me to open my eyes to see a pair of peach colored peaks with bright pink tips. I blink my eyes a few times before I register what I am looking at and lift my head slightly and look up to see a mirthful smile and beautiful shimmering ruby eyes looking back at me.

“It’s time to get up, sleepy head.”

I blink again before sighing and starting to pull away from the deliciously cool body. “I suppose we should get up and see what the day has to offer. Though staying in bed doesn’t sound like a bad idea.”

She giggles a little at my statement before sitting up. “I like the sound of that too, but Bea will wonder what we are doing.”

“How about we tell her?” Feeling playful, I give Flannery a devilish smirk as I pose an idea. “We can tell her in full detail everything that happened last night.”

Flannerys face turns the same color as her hair as she thinks about the possibility. “I mean… maybe a little?”

I giggle again but don’t say anything as I get out of bed and saunter over to the bathroom, making sure to give my hips a playful sway.  I grab our clothes from the wash and head back into the room and toss her the clothes she wore last night, toasty warm from the drier. Even though they always feel hot on my skin, nothing beats freshly dried clothes first thing in the morning, well maybe freshly dried sheets to crawl into at night… not that I can enjoy that anymore. I store away yesterday's outfit and pull out a blue bikini top and matching shorts to wear.  

It only takes me a moment, no matter how slow I try to dress for Flannery to watch, to get dressed for the day. I turn and watch her get ready for the day and receive a fun show of my own as she slowly covers her body with her outfit of choice. She doesn’t have any issue when she puts on her bra and panties, but when she puts on her shirt, I notice that she begins to sweat a little. The problem occurs when she goes to put her pants on as well. Well two problems.

“Frost. My dear, darling, Frost.” She starts with a quiet questioning tone. “What is this?”

“Your pants, what else could they be?”

“I know these are my pants,” she shakes the waist of her pants before continuing, “I mean, what is this mark?”

“What mark? I mean I see all the marks I left on your body last night if that is what you mean?” I answer while deflecting the question with a mostly true statement.

“Not those marks, I rather enjoy them. I mean this blue mark that looks suspiciously like a tattoo. A very lewd tattoo at that.” She narrows her shimmering ruby eyes at me as if daring me to dodge the question again.

“Umm, well you see..” I start quietly. “Mybloodlinemighthavedonesomething.” She raises an eyebrow at me but stays silent still waiting for my answer. “Itsamatemark.”

“It’s a what?”

“I might have unintentionally marked you as my mate.” I finally tell her clearly. I’m only guessing what happened but something within me feels like this is the right answer. I don’t have any control over my bloodline or aura so who knows what really happened but I hope I can have some control unless I mark another by accident. Not that I want another girl… I really like Flannery, I don’t need anyone else.

“By mate you mean…”

“Yes”

“Huh… Not sure what to think about that…” She trails off as she finishes putting on her pants. A moment later, I see her sweating profusely and her face starts to flush. “Is it just me, or does the room feel rather suffocating? It’s hard to breathe.” She begins to breathe hard and lets out a hot breath that sends a cloud of steam from her lips like she was smoking. She is smoking hot, but that is besides the point at the moment.

I step over to her and quickly pull her shirt, quickly followed by her bra, off and I see the sweat start to disappear and her breathing slows down to a normal pace. I give her a small smirk.

“Looks like I’m not the only one that is going to be wearing less than normal.”

Apologies for not posting on Monday. I spent the last three days starring at this chapter and had nothing to show for it. I have a number of ideas bouncing around my head(Thanks ADHD) but they were of different novel ideas, different chapters later on or just about anything that wasn't this chapter. I am trying to stick to a schedule but life doesn't always work that way.

The motto I live by, as it is more true than anything else: c'est la vie

Hopefully I will have a decent chapter on Friday as I pull myself out of this tangent from the lemon that I didn't mean to write and back onto plot!
