Jack woke with a start, a loud crash coming from his kitchen followed by a sharp curse. Jack slipped on a pair of pants and a shirt he had picked up the previous day and walked out to the kitchen, seeing Kairo sweeping up a coffee mug. The lion leaned down to pick up the dustpan, his tail lifting to steady himself, revealing his tight, pink anus and balls to the unsuspecting human who just walked in. "Don't aim that thing at me, I'm innocent," Jack said jokingly. "Oh, sorry, Jack, didn't mean to break your mug, though feel free to keep looking, it doesn't bite," Kairo said, standing up again. "Why are you naked?" Jack asked, watching Kairo give a smug smirk. "What, you don't like the view?" He replied with a flirtatious tone. Earning a glare from Jack. He looked at the counter, seeing that the lion had made him breakfast. An omelet with breakfast sausages sat neatly on a plate next to a cup of coffee. "You made me breakfast?" Jack asked, surprised at the gesture. "Of course I did, Jack, I wouldn't be a good boyfriend if I didn't," Kairo replied with a wink. "We are not dating," Jack replied sternly. "Well, I guess I am just practicing for the future," he replied with a quick, tender kiss to Jack's cheek. The surprisingly soft and warm lips made Jack freeze, Kairo's whiskers tickling his face. Jack pulled away and glared at Kairo, the lion smirking back at him. "What was that for?" Jack asked, feeling flustered. "Sorry, couldn't help myself. You are just too cute," Kairo replied, lightly grasping both sides of Jack's face and giving a long, wet lick up Jack's face from chin to scalp, the large slimy appendage feeling rough and leaving a trail of saliva. Jack recoiled, and Kairo burst out laughing as he retreated to his room. Jack wiped his face clean, the meaty scent of the lion's saliva sticking to his face. Jack sat and ate breakfast silently, enjoying the food. Kairo reappeared from the room a few minutes later, fully clothed and sat at the table across from Jack. "Thanks for the food, it was really good," Jack stated, watching the lion's face perk up at the compliment. "No problem, I learned a few things from some videos I watched last night, and from multiple past boyfriends," Kairo replied with a purr. Kairo picked up the empty plate and glass and took them to the kitchen. He watched as the lion washed the dishes while humming a light, happy tune. Jack heard a knock on the door and quickly crossed the room. He swung the heavy door open, revealing the Captain, who smiled at Jack. "Good morning, Jack. I hope you're settling in nicely. How is your assistant treating you?" she asked. "Good morning, Captain Iskra. Yes, everything is perfect. Kairo is very friendly." Jack replied, watching a look of surprise cross her face. "Kairo? Your assistant is supposed to be a female panther, I told Kairo to go tell her she had the job." She spoke, her eye catching Kairo ducking into a room out of sight. "Kairo! If you know what is good for you, you will come to this door immediately." She yelled. Kairo skulked to the door, his tail hanging, unmoving. "H-Hey... Iskra... You look... please have mercy on me." Kairo fell to his knees in front of her. She huffed and crossed her arms. "That's Captain to you, now, tell me why I am looking at your ugly mug in his room instead of the one I told you to find?" She said coldly. Her tail flicked in annoyance. "You're going to find this hilarious. I was on my way to tell her, and thought I would be the responsible guy you know me to be, and check out the living space to make sure she would be comfortable. While I was checking it out, he found me and wanted me to stay." Kairo said, not able to look into her glare that intensified as he spoke. "Well, I am truly sorry for this mix-up, Jack. I will have him removed at the earliest convenience, and your actual assistant will be notified." Captain Iskra spoke in a light tone before turning to Kairo. "As for you... I hope you don't mind a little hard work, because we are docking at the intergalactic station in a few days, and I think the bridge needs a good cleaning and repaint." She says, a cruel smirk appearing on her face. "Actually... Captain, I would like to keep him as my assistant," Jack finds himself saying, earning a confused look from both of them. "You do?" They both say at the same time. Jack replies with a nod. "But he wasn't supposed to... but he is annoying, and overly sexual... Fine... If you want... That, as your assistant, he is yours. Even though I have millions of people on this ship who would make better company, and I am including a broom, wearing a shirt." She replied through clenched teeth. "Oh, come on, Captain, I am way better than a broom," Kairo replied. "A broom knows how and when to shut up," she growled in reply. His ears fell flat. She looked at Jack for a moment, huffed in annoyance, and walked away. The fur on the back of her neck is standing on end. Jack closed the door and looked at the lion. "Why did you help me?" Kairo asked. "Because first and foremost, I know she has a particular hatred for you, which means no surprise visits, secondly, I think you are pleasant to be around. But you now owe me a favour, and I won't be as nice as the Captain." Jack replied. Kairo pulled him into a hug, the big lion purring, the deep rumbling vibrating Jack's body. Jack struggled against Kairo, trying to get away from the hug. The lion refused to release Jack. The lion's warm, musky scent surrounds Jack. Jack sighed and gave in to the hug, the fur feeling soft against him. "Thanks, Jack," Kairo said quietly, before releasing Jack and straightening his tunic. "What's on the agenda today, Kairo?" Jack asked, changing the subject. "Well, we could go see my friend in the lab." He replied, the familiar smirk reappearing. "Sounds like fun," Jack replied. He went back to his room and slipped on his grey tunic, finding Kairo waiting at the door for him. The two left the room and walked to an elevator, where a female fox was already inside, wearing a red tunic. She smiled at Jack and made room for the two. They travelled in silence until the elevator came to a stop. The female fox squeezed past the two, stopping and looking at Jack before handing him a phone number and walking away. "She totally wants you," Kairo said as if stating a fact. "She only gave me her number, how would you know?" Jack asked. "She smelled horny as soon as we entered the elevator. If you were alone, she probably would have dragged you to her office." He said, patting Jack on the shoulder. The elevator came to a stop again, this time opening to a large office with expensive-looking equipment. A female red Lab is sitting naked at a desk, her eyes closed, with the chair leaning back. "Hey Shyra, where is Cyris?" Kairo called out. "Holy fuck! Do people even knock anymore?" she snapped, her fur now puffy. She turned and glared at Kairo, her eyes meeting Jack's, her eyebrow cocking. "She is busy at the moment," Shyra said, turning her chair and spreading her thighs, showing off her puffy spade, a pair of tiny legs sticking out. "What happened to her?" Jack asked. "Well, she wanted to test out a shrink gun she found in the last stATION." She sucked air through her teeth, her eyes squinting as the legs disappeared inside her twitching spade. Her body convulsed as a spray of fluids soaked the chair, the legs reappearing as Cyris slipped from the canine's folds, soaked in her juices. The black wolf instantly grew back to her normal height, which was still taller than Jack. "Hello, Kairo, sorry, I was... in the lab," she joked, receiving a playful swat on her ass from the now embarrassed red lab. Cyris turned towards Jack and smiled. "You must be Kairo's boyfriend, Jack. It is so nice he finally found someone," she said while Kairo tried to interrupt her. "We are not dating. Is he telling everyone that we are?" Jack asked, turning to Kairo, who refused to look in his direction. "Yeah, you are all he can talk about. I just figured he just found someone with remarkably low standards," Cyris joked, watching Kairo cross his arms in mock offence. "I'll have you know, I am quite the catch. I just had a few that didn't end too well." Kairo said defensively. "Sounds like a catch and release," Shyra butted in, earning a chuckle from Jack and Cyris. "You wound me," Kairo says dramatically, clenching his chest, as he lets out a laugh. Jack watched as Cyris walked into a glass-enclosed shower that washed the evidence from her body in minutes. Jack felt a hand on his shoulder, Kairo looking at him with a smirk. "I wouldn't try with her; she tends to make her dates run away screaming. She once had a guy who constantly insisted that he wanted to have sex with her, so she shrank him and sealed him into a hollow glass dildo and left him in a men's washroom at a gay strip club for a day. When she retrieved him, he was crying." Kairo said. "Not entirely true, he was very quiet, and when I grew him back, that was when he ran crying." Cyris corrected as she stood behind Jack and Kairo. Jack looked at her, still naked but clean and dry. Her pink nipples showing through the black fur, she noticed Jack staring and placed her hand on his shoulder as Kairo left the room to talk on his phone. "Like what you see, Jack?" She said quietly, rubbing her hand over her nipple, making Jack's face go red. "Sorry, I- I didn't mean to..." He started before Cyris cut him off. "It is okay, I am flattered you are even looking," she said with a gentle wag of her bushy tail. Jack felt her hand move up his neck and lift his chin until he was staring at her face, before leaning in and pressing her soft lips to his. Her tongue slipped past his lips and into his mouth, the slimy appendage tasting salty and musky. She let go and chuckled. "Sorry about the extra flavour, I forgot I had used my tongue while crawling in Shyra." She said as she slipped her lab coat over her fur. "It's okay," Jack replied, his voice cracking slightly. Cyris sat in her chair and chuckled at his reply. "Well, it is certainly good to know that you are not just interested in Kairo. If you want to see if you can tame the big bad wolf, I am free tomorrow night, and don't worry, I won't shrink you unless you deserve it, or ask for it." She said with a grin, her sharp canine teeth glinting in the light as she licked her lips. "I am not dating Kairo. Why does everyone think that we are a couple? I don't even want to imagine what it would be like to have him on top," Jack shivered at the idea. "Well, I can see the way he looks at you, that hunger in his golden eyes... You may not be interested in him, and you very well may never be... But after knowing him this long, he wouldn't be the one on top," she says with a wink. Jack catches the implication and looks at the door, where Kairo is talking to someone on his phone. "Wait, so Kairo would want me to..." Jack starts but trails off. Cyris nods enthusiastically before pulling a drawer open and holding out a bottle of clear, viscous liquid. Jack looks at the liquid. "I think I know how your long stay on this ship is going to go, and a little lube never hurts." She says, handing him the bottle. Jack slips the bottle into his pocket just as Kairo enters the room again, ignoring the awkward silence. "Hey, Jack, want to go get some lunch? The captain wants to have a meeting with you in an hour," Kairo says, his eyes finding the bulge in Jack's pocket, but he thinks nothing of it. The two head to the cafeteria, quickly get their food, and find a seat. "I wonder what this meeting is about," Jack says between forkfuls of chicken pasta. "I forgot what she said it was about, but I don't think it was really important," Kairo replies as he cuts his steak. Once the two finished their meals, they headed up to the captain's office, standing in front of the wooden door with the gold name plate. Kairo reaches out a clawed finger and presses the buzzer, a chime ringing. The door swings open, and the snow leopard standing in the doorway glares at Kairo. "Ah, good, you're on time." She says, keeping a professional tone. She moves out of the way and motions for Jack to enter. Jack moves past the feline and walks into the room, seeing a large meeting table with empty seats and name plates on each spot. Captain Iskra stands at the head of the table and motions for Jack to stand with her. He raises an eyebrow and stands beside her. He suddenly hears collective gasps from the table. He looks up to see holographic anthros sitting around the table, staring at him, their tunics showing more gold bars than she has. He feels his blood run cold as the faces stare at him. A male dragon cleared his throat, gaining the attention of the others in the room. "Hello, what is the identity of your species?" His voice is deep and powerful. "I am human," Jack says, trying to sound confident but failing. "Okay, human, your captain says that you are from many light-years away. Is that true?" The dragon asks. "Yes, that is true," Jack replies. Watching the dragon take some notes as a female wolf speaks up. "How are you doing on the ship? Are you integrating well with the crew?" she asks, her voice seeming calm. "I think so, I have made friends," Jack replies, watching all of them take notes. "That's wonderful news. Have you had intimate relations with anyone?" She asks, a tigress speaking up. "Calm down, he is halfway across the star system from your location, keep it in your pants." The tigress says, earning a chuckle from the group. "Not really, just kissed a female wolf," Jack replied, the holographic wolf perking up at the admission. "What is this all about anyway?" Jack asks. A male bear stands and places his hands on his hips, his gut jiggling with the movement. "We are trying to decide if you are a spy for the enemy or if you will become an ambassador for the humans, which unfortunately doesn't mean much other than a title, but once we locate your planet, we will have greater knowledge about your kind so that we can become allies," he says plainly before sitting again. "I am not a spy," Jack says. "Well, that's a relief, just one more question and we will leave you alone... for now. On your planet, what were you before you travelled through space? Were you well known?" The dragon asked. Jack felt a bead of sweat on his forehead. "I was well known, and they called me a hero for doing the trip... voluntarily," Jack said, looking away. Iskra looked at Jack, her eyes narrowing. "What was with the pause?" Iskra asked. Jack sighed and looked at the anthros around the table. "I did not do this willingly. The public called me a hero, the government called me a criminal." Jack spoke, the room going silent. The anthros around the table looked at each other and nodded, the bear standing again with a smile. "Well, thank you for being honest with us. We already knew about your past and wanted to make sure you didn't want to hide anything from us, and before you ask, we sent an unmanned probe at warp speed to orbit your planet once we tracked your path." The bear said. "You did?" Jack answered. "Well, we wanted to know more about your planet. But now I think you deserve this position... Captain Iskra, if you would," He spoke. The snow leopard turned to Jack and pinned something to his tunic. He looked down to see a badge with the words 'ambassador' on it. "Thank you," Jack spoke to the room. The holograms cut out, leaving the two in silence. "Welcome to the A.R.F, Jack," She purrs, before walking Jack to the door. Jack left the Captain's office and accidentally walked into Kaelen, the husky dropping her papers. "Sorry," Jack said before bending over and picking up her papers. "It's okay, Jack, it happens to the best of us." She replies with a warm smile, taking the papers from him as he offers them to her. Kairo yawns audibly. Jack looks over at the lion, who stretches and starts walking away. "Sorry, got to go, see you later." She says, quickly disappearing down the long hall. Jack followed Kairo back to his room, the large room still amazing him as he walked inside. Jack smelled something cooking in the kitchen. "That smells really good," Jack comments. "Thanks, I started cooking a beef stew after dropping you off at the Captain's office," Kairo said, feeling proud of his effort being recognized. Kairo stripped off his tunic, revealing his muscular body. A powerful wave of feline musk filled Jack's nose, smelling like wet fur, sweat, and the soap he used in the morning. Jack noticed Kairo looking at him with a smile. "See something you like, Jack?" he joked. "Just surprised you are stripping, again," Jack replied. As Kairo walked to the kitchen, his tail swished lazily behind him. Jack followed him, watching as the lion bent over to check on the food. Jack's eyes wandered to the base of Kairo's tail, remembering what Cyris told him earlier. Jack shook his head as his thoughts headed towards what lies under his tail. He sat in a chair as Kairo served the stew and placed the bowl in front of him, and sat at the other end of the table. Kairo started eating, his tail curling around the leg of his chair. Jack ate in silence, as he decided to ignore his thoughts about Kairo. "That was really good, Kairo, thank you for supper," Jack said, breaking the silence. "No problem, I just love cooking for my cute human," Kairo said, knowing it bothered Jack. The lion stood, grabbed both dishes from the table, and walked to the kitchen, humming a happy tune. Jack looked away as Kairo moved around the kitchen. He felt the weight of the lube in his pocket and decided to go to bed before he did something to Kairo he wasn't sure he wanted. Jack climbed into bed, clearing his mind before falling asleep. Jack woke up in the morning. He heard Kairo in the living room watching TV. He got out of bed, changed into a pair of gym shorts, and went to the living room. Kairo was sitting on the couch, only wearing a pair of loose boxers. "Morning, Kairo, why are you in your underwear?" Jack asked, the lion looking over at him. "Well, you complained that I was naked, so..." he said with a shrug. Jack sighed and sat next to Kairo, the lion's scent smelling sweet this morning. "Whatever, what are the plans this morning?" Jack asked, watching as Kairo scratched his sheath through the underwear. "Nothing, the Captain is busy getting ready for our arrival at the space port tomorrow," He replied, wrapping his muscular arm around Jack's shoulder and pulling him against his furry body. Jack felt surprised at the sudden closeness to the lion. Jack relaxed against Kairo and watched TV. "Is there something you want to do?" Kairo asked. "I am open to suggestions," Jack said. "Well, you could always suck my..." Kairo started, before Jack interrupted. "I am not into men," Jack states. The lion smirks, stands up, and walks to the kitchen. Jack watched as Kairo started making breakfast. "I know you aren't interested in me yet, I just like to pick on you," Kairo replies with a smirk. Jack rolled his eyes and sighed. Jack walked into the kitchen, where he stood silently, watching the big feline move around the kitchen. Kairo, seeing that he was being watched, smirked and turned towards Jack. Kairo started to rub his sheath, encouraging his pink tip to slip out briefly before disappearing again. Seeing that Jack was still watching, he gently grabbed Jack's hand and guided it to his sheath. Jack hesitated as he felt his hand on Kairo's sheath, the soft, sweaty fur tickling his skin. Jack pulled his hand away from the lion, a faint sheen of lion sweat coating his fingers. "Why did you do that? That is gross." Jack said angrily. "You looked interested, and you didn't stop me," Kairo replied, his ears going back in defence. Jack glared at him, knowing the lion was right; he didn't know why he let him guide his hand to his sheath. "Sorry," Jack said quietly. "It's okay, couples fight sometimes," Kairo said mockingly. Jack sighed in annoyance and walked away. Once out of view from Kairo, Jack hesitantly raised his sweaty hand to his face and sniffed. His nose was hit with the pungent lion musk, earthy, sweet, and like damp fur. "I saw that," Kairo said next to Jack's head, Jack yelling and jumping away, much to Kairo's enjoyment. "Dude, you scared the shit out of me," Jack said, his heart thumping hard in his chest. "You smelled your hand," Kairo said. "Well, I didn't mean... I didn't know... It was a mist..." Jack stammered out before Kairo pulled him into a tight hug, Jack's face pressed into the lion's chest. "Don't say it was a mistake, you were curious, and you acted on it," Kairo said with a purr. Jack tried thinking of a defence but knew he was caught. He sighed and gave in to the hug. "Sorry," Jack said in defeat. Kairo pulled away enough that he could look into Jack's eyes. Jack stared into Kairo's golden eyes, seeing that the fur around his eyes was wet. "You're crying?" Jack asked. "I am just so happy that you have SOME interest in me, well, enough to want to know what I smell like," Kairo replied. The lion served the plates, a noticeable spring to his step and a genuine smile on his face, his sharp teeth showing. The two sat in silence as they ate. Jack noticed something wrap around his ankle. Looking under the table, he noticed Kairo's tail was around his leg. "I feel like you aren't just going to let it go that I did that?" Jack asked, already knowing the answer. "Only if you actually want me to, I will never force you to do anything," Kairo replied. "But you did, I didn't want to grab your sheath, you moved my hand." Jack retorted. Kairo looked up at him, his ears falling. "Well, I didn't feel you try to stop me. I only lightly held your arm; at any time, you could have pulled away." Kairo replied, his voice shaky. Jack fell silent, knowing he was once again defeated. Kairo got up silently, cleared the dishes, and went back to the kitchen, his tail hanging motionless. Jack felt a pang of regret for calling him out. He followed Kairo to the kitchen, stopping behind the feline. He sighed and wrapped his arms around Kairo's torso from behind, feeling the lion's body go rigid at the sudden embrace. "Jack?" Kairo spoke cautiously. "I didn't mean to be an ass. I just... I don't know what I'm doing, but hurting you wasn't my intention," Jack replied. Kairo turned around and returned the hug, his large head resting on Jack's, burying Jack's face in his musky mane. "I forgive you, plus what am I going to do? Go back to sharing a room with many other anthros, and you are way too cute to stay mad at," Kairo replied, pulling his large head back and kissing Jack on the forehead, before looking Jack in the eyes and slowly moving his mouth lower, hesitating an inch away from Jack's lips. Jack felt his heart race as he realized what Kairo was about to do. The lion closed the distance, his soft lips pressing to Jack's. Jack tried to struggle, but Kairo was still hugging him. He felt Kairo purring as something pressed against his stomach, slowly grew and slid up his chest. Kairo released Jack, a blush reddening the feline's face. "Sorry, I got carried away," Kairo said, not making eye contact. Jack stood stunned as Kairo's erect cock caught his attention. The pink spire of feline flesh, standing erect from the lion's sheath. Kairo's penis stood at 8 inches, the pointed tip covered in small backward-facing barbs. "You can touch it if you want, it won't bite, though, it may spit at you if you touch it enough," Kairo joked, seeing Jack staring at his crotch. Jack looked away, feeling conflicted about his desires. "I won't judge you," Kairo said encouragingly. Jack felt his heart thump in his chest. Jack sighed and looked at the lion's cock. He leaned in, feeling the radiating warmth of Kairo's groin as he got close, the heady scent of his musk tickling his nose. Jack stuck out his tongue, pressing it against the tip. He felt it twitch against his tongue, hearing Kairo groan and start purring. It tasted heavily of his feline musk, salty, sweet, and a hint of urine. Jack felt the tip throb and pulse as he licked over the barbs, surprised that they were not as sharp as he imagined. A bead of opaque fluid beaded on his tip and was swept up by Jack's tongue. He felt the slimy, salty liquid on his tongue and pulled his head away. "Wow, that was... not so bad," Jack said, admitting to himself. "That's great to hear. I am glad you decided to let loose and try it." Kairo said, placing his hand on Jack's shoulder. "Well, you were very insistent that I try it," Jack replied. "Sorry, I just wanted to see if Mister 'I am not into men.' Would suck a dick if given a little encouragement." Kairo purred. Jack pulled away from Kairo's grasp with little effort, sitting back on the couch. Kairo slumped next to Jack on the couch and rested his large head on Jack's shoulder. Jack could still taste the lion on his tongue. He glanced down at Kairo's penis, still rock hard and twitching. "You know, Jack, you could finish what you started," Kairo suggested. "If I do, will you leave me alone?" Jack asked. "Probably not, but I would hope that you would do it anyway," Kairo said. Jack rolled his eyes and watched as Kairo stood up in front of him, his cock and balls in front of his face, the lion's balls swinging slightly from the movement. Jack hesitated for a few seconds before he just leaned in and took Kairo into his mouth. The musky taste hit his senses immediately, followed by the salty, urine-like tang. Jack felt the hot, throbbing flesh poke the entrance to his throat, surprising himself that his gag reflex didn't engage. Kairo gasped and held Jack's head in place, his body shaking with stimulation. Jack started moving his head back and forth, feeling the barbs tickling his mouth. Jack felt the lion's cock throb and a spurt of pre shot out, hitting his throat as he swirled his tongue over the tip. "This feels amazing, Jack, if you keep up like this, I won't last long," Kairo said, purring and slowly humping into Jack's mouth. Kairo grabbed Jack's hand and placed it on his balls. Jack felt the lion's hefty balls in his hand, the sweaty skin pulsing in his grasp. Jack continued his ministrations on the lion, hearing his purring get louder. "Jack... I... oh shit," Kairo said with gritted teeth as he climaxed. Jack felt Kairo's balls pull back, the cock in his mouth throbbed hard, and a spurt hit his throat, the hot, salty liquid rapidly spraying out into his mouth, forcing him to swallow around the lion's cock. The thick cum spilling down his throat and out the sides of his mouth, he could feel Kairo's claws lightly pressing into his skin. Soon the pulsing slowed to a stop, and Kairo stood, breathing hard, not pulling away yet, savouring the feeling of a mouth around him. Kairo pulled away, looking at the mess and chuckling. "Sorry, Jack, guess I was a little pent up, but thank you," Kairo said, looking down at Jack's cum coated mouth. "It was not as bad as I thought it was going to be," Jack said, breathing hard. "I am glad to hear you say that," Kairo said, sitting on the couch. Jack got up and went to the bathroom to clean himself up, seeing the mess Kairo had made. After the shower, he went back out to see Kairo watching TV again, his cock retracted back into his sheath. Jack sat down next to Kairo and felt an arm slip around his waist, pulling him closer to the lion. Kairo nuzzled into Jack's neck, purring. "So, I guess I am sometimes into men now," Jack admitted. "Well, I won't stop you from turning that sometimes, into more, because next time, I want you to play with my ass," Kairo replied. "You are annoying, you know that?" Jack stated. "Yeah, but I am your boyfriend, I am supposed to be annoying," Kairo said, pulling Jack into his lap, kissing him on the lips, and quickly releasing the kiss. "What was that?" Jack asked. "Well, I know you were about to say that we are not dating and... umph," Kairo got out before Jack pulled the lion's head towards him and kissed him on the lips, watching Kairo's eyes shoot open, tears welling in his eyes.
