Episode 8:
I never liked the rain
She had predicted two weeks at the most, but it never came. The drama with the doe and the encounter with the other wolf, It never came. The video's started trending like mad, it never came. Some of his fans even started asking for her autograph, while she was guarding him. It still never came.
Perhaps, it was due to her being sexually active, for the first time in her life. Regardless it never came. Weeks passed and in the midst of a long trip to the next show, in the longest stretch of the trip. Traveling through the midwest plains heading east and over a month late from her predictions, It finally came.
Tracey woke in the night, while the bus was rolling down a long lonely stretch of highway. She couldn't tell how late it was, nor did she care. She woke with a pant on her breath, her body furiously burning up. She could feel the sweat all over her, as if she had a fever.
His arm was holding her against his chest, like it always did. Usually being held made her feel warm and safe on most nights, but tonight it just felt restrictive. She shrugged out of the grip tossing, the sheets and covers off them both of them with a heavy labored sigh.
"You okay?" Leo's groggy words came to her in the darkness and she lifted her ears sharply. She really wasn't and she knew it.
Her mind wasn't thinking clearly and she had only one singular thought. The wolf said nothing and climbed atop her ram. Leo let out a surprised huff when she tangled her fingers through his hair grabbing it hard and pulling his face close to her own while she loomed over him. A low savage growl filled his ears and then her mouth was on his, kissing him with a feral hunger he had never felt from her before.
Tracey's tongue shoved into his mouth, lashing violently against his own while kissing him. Everytime his own tried to push back, she gave it a warning nip with her sharp teeth. She drank in the taste of him, drawing in a heavy breath through her nose, before pulling from his mouth and moving down his throat. She kissed and bit on the way down, leaving small nips along his flesh..
"Tracey... ngh... are you alright?" Leo panted the words, feeling her sharp teeth dragging against his flesh. She was nipping and biting at his throat, just as much as she was kissing it.
The plains were known to have heavy bouts of rain and thunderstorms during the early to mid autumn season, giving way to heavy snowfall during the winter months. The rain hitting the bus was a faint drizzle, but there was plenty of lightning all the same. It filled the large empty plains and illuminated the interior of the bus frequently.
"Oh yes my ram..." Tracey growled the words, her voice dripping with fervent need as she brushed her kisses down his chest. She took a moment to drag her tongue along his right nipple and give his sculpted muscle a possessive bite. The ram hissed out from her teeth as the wolf rose to sit up over him.
Lightning filled the cabin of the bus in sharp bursts of blue light, illuminating the hungry looking wolf while she straddled him in the darkness. Her eyes smoldered with an almost madness in them, her sharp large canines showing in a wide possessive grin.
The ram blinked up at her rapidly, his heart rate elevating. She looked stunning, but the look in her eyes tore at him on a primal level. She didn't look like the wolf he had fallen for, she looked like a ravenous predator and that sent a jolt of fear up his spine even though he knew she would never hurt him.
"Leeeeeo..." The older wolf groaned his name out and shoved her ass back, grinding and pushing against his boxers. She worked her hips eagerly against his quickly growing bulge. "I'm burning up... fix it." The words came out in a heavy pant and they didn't sound like a request, but a demand. Her nails shoved into his chest, digging into his flesh.
"Ngh... ha... o-okay my wolf..." He panted the words and moved his hands to her hips, gently gripping them as they jerked impatiently.
"Hurry up, hurry up!" Tracey barked the words out and snarled at his gentle touch. The wolf dragged her nails down his chest leaving scratches while shoving her crotch hard against his bulging cock, grinding impatiently. "Fuck me, sheep! Fuck me, or I will tie you down and do it myself!" The wolf barked the words showing her teeth as she growled at her younger lover.
"Tch! F-fine!" He spat the words out in irritation and pain from her dragging nails down his chest. The ram reached to his own hips and stripped his boxers down his length springing forth between them. Her grinding and scent obviously had gotten his bodies attention, even through the pain.
Tracey let out an excited huff, her eyes glazing over when she caught his scent. Leo sat up and grabbed her hips pulling her up and more in line with his lap. The wolf grinned excitedly, wagging her large white tail like a puppy as he pushed his throbbing head against her wet folds. His length pushed into her drenched entrance easily, her body more than ready for him..
"Yes, that's a good ram... ngh!" The wolf's tail fluffed out and twitched as he guided her down on top of his length. Her walls violently clenched every inch of the way, until she came fully to rest against his lap. His head was pushed snug and deep inside her at her core.
"Happy you fussy dog?" Leo panted the words as he wrapped his arms around her. The wolf was already rocking and jerking her hips, feeling him prod and stroke her insides as she panted heavily.
She responded by shoving her mouth to his own in another eager kiss. The ram bleated out softly from the aggressive jerk of her hips. She wrapped her arms around his neck while pushing into his body, her hips bucking wildly against him, forcing his length to plunge hard into her again and again.
Leo moved his hands against her ass, more holding on than anything else as the dog violently rode him while in his lap. The idol moaned against her lips then broke the kiss to clench his teeth, shuddering as his lover gave in hard on him, her walls viciously milking at his intruding length.
Tracey lolled her tongue in a deep throaty sigh of relief, her body gaving in to him. "Oh that's nice... that's what I needed..." The dog gave the ram a drunk grin and pushed her forehead to his own, her hips already working again, bucking and pushing against him in a frenzy to mate. "My sexy ram... you're all I want!"
"You're all I want too Tracey... ha... ha..." He was panting now, her hips violently grinding and pushing against him, her walls clenching and ready to give in again. "So tight... fuck..."
"Puppies..." The wolf huffed the words into his ear hotly, her breath burning against his skin.
Leo's drooped ear flicked up sharply at the word, the wolf locking down on him once more, giving in violently. The ram lolled his tongue, trying to ride out the clenching and squeezing. "W-what?"
Another deep pleased sigh and the wolf pushed close once more, her hips now grinding and pushing hard on him. The motion made his head dig against her, made her ache from how deep he was, but she couldn't help herself. "Ha... I want to have your puppies... or lambs... same difference..." Her voice dripped with desire, sounding drunk and fervent.
His bright green eyes widened at the words, Leo looking at her with a look of shock. His own tongue was still hanging out slightly while she bucked against him. "W-wait a sec, I thought you said-"
"Shut up and breed with me you stupid sheep!" The wolf snarled the words, jerking her hips violently, before shifting and slamming down hard into his lap. With a heavy grunt, Leo yelped out at the movement then moaned out from the forced deep push. His nails dug sharply into Tracey's back as he shuddered and let out a defeated groan.
She felt the heat rush in, boiling hot and soothing. The wolf folded her ears and nuzzled his throat and cheek, moaning softly as her hips ground against him, her walls clenching him viciously for every drop. "Good ram...ha..."
The idol panted and clung tight to the wolf as she ground upon his lap, taking everything he had inside her before he shivered and let out a weak groan. His forehead pushed to her own while she grinned and hummed, happy from the fervent mating.
Tracey panted softly for several moments, her blue eyes closed as she tried to focus her thoughts. Finally she opened them to see her ram looking a little worried and gave him a reassuring smile. "Sorry about that, Leo..."
He blinked at her, seeing her disposition seeming to return to normal. He clicked his tongue before cocking an eyebrow. "Puppies and lambs?"
The wolf looked away blushing and squirmed in his lap a little. "L-look... that's the heat talking, don't pay it any mind, okay?"
Leo gave her a playful grin and drifted his fingertips along the wolf's tummy gently. "You sure?"
Tracey glared at him and showed her teeth before brushing his hand away. "Stupid sheep! Stop teasing me!"
"Sorry my wo-" He grunted as Tracey grabbed his wrists and shoved him down onto his back, pinning them above his head.
"You can make it up to me right now..." She growls the words while grinding her hips, feeling him throb inside her still as she started to work her body against him once more.
The ram winced and blinks up at her, panting out as he feels his mate get right back to it. "Ha... s-so soon?"
"You're young, Leo. I'm sure you can keep up with an older dog like me~" Tracey sighs the words with perked ears, leaning down over him to peck his lips gently before giving him a hungry grin. Her hips bucked impatiently against him and she huffed down into his face. The ram panted softly in response as she got back to her fervent mating with him.
"You look pretty tired, Leo baby." Max spoke gently to him, from across the table at the truck stop diner they were having breakfast in.
"Yeah, it was a... long night." The idol sighed the words, giving a yawn before sipping more of his coffee. His large plate of eggs and bowl of oatmeal he had for breakfast, were almost gone.
"You're eating a pretty big breakfast too, are you getting sick?" The rat prodded the idol, concern creeping into his voice.
The ram quickly waved a hand. "No! No... nothing like that. I just uh... I needed the extra energy from the food, I guess."
Max put a hand to his cheek in thought before seeing Tracey approach them. She had her own plate heaped full of eggs and meat from the breakfast bar. The manager smiled at the bodyguard. "Good morning Trace-" His nose caught her scent, even through the food and her own recent shower. The older male put the pieces together right away and awkwardly averted his eyes.
"Good morning, Maximillian." The wolf spoke the words while settling down next to Leo, who had scooted over to give her room to sit. The look on his face, told Tracey all she needed to know. It stood to reason he would pick up on it all, he was an older male after all with more worldly experience and even had a family.
"So I've got news from the label." Max spoke out while shoveling a few bites of his own breakfast down.
"Good or bad news?" Leo asked dryly, swiping Tracey's fresh mug of coffee and taking a sip. The wolf gave him a playful growl in response to the gesture.
"Very good in my opinion. Once the tour wraps up, they want you back in the studio working on another album, ASAP."
"Interesting... I assume they would want another tour too?" The idol set the coffee mug back down before grinning at Tracey. "Sorry for stealing your coffee~"
"You're going to need that energy boost when I get you back on the bus." The wolf growled the worlds playfully as she plucked up the mug and started sipping on it from the same side he used.
Max grinned at the display and shook his head. "Most likely, but I better get some home time first. Watching you two these last months, has really made me miss my wife."
"Months..." Tracey spoke quietly and looked down at her mostly drank coffee. "Has it been months already?"
"You joined up almost right at two months ago, Tracey." Max spoke the words, looking the details up in his phone. "Yeah... a little before the halfway point of autumn. It's almost winter now."
Time really was moving fast. She tried to stop and relish it, she tried to not take it for granted, him for granted. It was already getting close to halfway over. "I should... call Mom. I've not called her since I started this gig." Tracey slid out of the booth and quickly walked from the diner.
"Is she okay?" Max looked at Leo curiously.
"I mean we don't have the history you and Joanne do, Max. I can't read her perfectly, but yeah... I think she is just rattled that it's been so long. She knows there's a time limit on this job." Leo looks out over his shoulder, seeing Tracey outside through the windows, phone to her ear pacing about.
"The job is timed, Leo. You guys aren't..." Max speaks the words gently while looking up at the ram.
Leo cut his eyes back to the rat and gave him a sad smile. "I know that and so does she. I think she has kept herself guarded because of what happened in the past with, Helen."
"Helen?" The rat asks curiously, his head tilting.
Leo frowned and waved a hand. "Ah... w-well... stuff I shouldn't be talking about Max, really really personal stuff of hers. Sorry."
Max nodded his head and thought about things. "Helen... where have I heard that name before..."
The ram sighs and shakes his head. "If you want the dirt, just search for Helen Sherry online. You will find the gist of things there. Just don't mention any of this to her, she would kill me for bringing it up."
The rat gave a nod and glanced over the rams shoulder at the wolf outside. "Mums the word Leo. Now..." He jerks his head towards Tracey. "Go talk to her."
"But... she already knows I'm not going anywhere, and-"
"Leonard." Max spoke the words in a surprisingly stern tone. "No matter how tough she may act, she is still a woman whom you love. Go remind her you're there for her."
"Love..." Leo swallowed a lump in his throat and looked back at Tracey through the glass. A chill running up his spine at the sight of her.
"It's painfully obvious to everyone but you two, regardless if you've confirmed it or not." Max spoke the words dryly and sipped his coffee. "Now stop being so introspective and get out there."
The ram smiled at him and grinned. "Oh, okay boss. I'm on my way." Leo gave him a playful flick of his tail after standing and moved outside of the diner.
Max pulled up a picture of Joanne on his phone and gave a grin before looking back at Leo. "They're both so stubborn, it's probably the push they needed."
Tracey put a hand to her cheek and gave a controlled huff. "Yes, Mom... I've been busy. I know..."
The wolf saw the ram move out towards her. She had of course been keeping a lazy eye upon him while outside, occasionally glancing at his booth in the diner. Her ears lifted as he made his way to her. "Hey, Mom. I should go, I will call you back."
Leo grinned and walked up to her, putting his hands on his hips. "I can come back if it's personal." He spoke the words out, making sure his voice was loud enough over the idling of trucks and cars at the truck stop.
"Tracey, who is that?" Her mother's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"T-that's... my..." The wolf bit her lower lip and looked away from him awkwardly.
"May I?" Leo grinned as he held his hand out towards her.
"You may not! This is my mother!" Tracey glared at him and huffed out, her tail rapidly wagging about.
"Tracey, are you okay?" Her mother's voice came from the phone once more.
"I'm fine, Mom! He's just being an ass right now!" The wolf growled back while glaring at the ram.
"C'mon... it will be fine, I promise not to be disrespectful!" The ram spoke the words playfully as he pushed up against the fussing dog and moved in to huff into her ear. "Afraid of her knowing about me?"
Tracey glared furiously at the ram and clenched her teeth. "You're a fucking idiot!"
"Tracey!" Even Leo heard the sharp reprimand from the speaker of her phone.
"Not you, Mom! Argh!" The wolf stomped her foot and growled at the ram. "Fine, whatever!" She thrusted the phone into his hands.
Leo cleared his throat before holding the phone up to his ear and speaking in his interview voice. "Hello, Mrs Wellford. Nice to meet you."
The wolf on the other line got silent before speaking out. "Nice to meet you too young man, why are you on my daughters phone?"
"Ah, well that is to say..." The ram looked at Tracey who had casually reached into her back pocket and withdrew her brass knuckles, fitting them and clenching her fist. She stood there watching him speak to her mother, crossing her arms..
The ram grinned at her, the grin almost looking like a challenge to her as he took a step away from her. Tracey jerked her tail up and huffed as she followed after him. "What are you doing, sheep?"
"So, ah... yes. I'm her client you could say. The one she is watching." Leo casually spoke the words, falling back one step at a time while the wolf snarled and stomped after him.
"Oh! I've never spoken to one of her clients before, why the interest in speaking with me, uh... mister?"
"Leo, just Leo. No need for any formalities with me, Mrs Wellford." He spoke the words and gave the wolf a wink as she reached for her phone and he side stepped it with a flourish and kept a pace ahead of her.
"F-fucking..." Tracey blushed and stomped her foot, pouting a little. She put the knuckles away and proceeded to lower her stance, as if ready to tackle him.
"So why the interest in speaking with me, Leo?" Her mother asked curiously, hearing the huff and pace of his breath change as he was evading the wolf playfully.
"Well that is to say... I'm not just her client now..." He gave the wolf a toothy grin, seeing her cheeks flushing a heavy crimson and her tail going rigid.
"Sheep, I will end you!" Tracey barked the words with a snarl.
"I don't think I follow, Leo." Her mother's voice came out confused at the whole exchange.
"So uh... my time is getting cut short, let me summarize."
"I will summarize your eulogy!" Tracey barked out and dove on the ram, tackling him to the ground.
Leo grinned and let out a bleat from the tackle as he quickly snapped out into the phone. "I'm dating your daughter, I love her very much, nice meeting you Mom!"
Tracey's mother pulled the phone from her ear as she heard the sound of cursing and snarling from her daughter on the other line.
"Oh my gawd! What are you doing you asshole!" Tracey snarled as she shoved her hands to his chest, pinning him to the walkway outside of the diner, her cheeks flushed while she growled.
"Mom!" Tracey barked out as she got her phone back to her ear. "I will call you back later." She didn't wait for a reply and hung it up before glaring daggers down at the ram beneath her. Leo gave her a wide grin and put his hands together, fingers shaped like a heart.
"Are you insane?" The wolf grumbled and lowered her ears, leaving her hands resting on his chest. Several onlookers were gawking as they made their way to and from the truck stop.
"Yes. I've lost my mind since you came into my life, Tracey. What better way to show I'm not all talk than to tell your mother." He huffed the words proudly and gave her a challenging grin.
Tracey let out a throaty sigh, her breath coming out in a deep plume of mist in the cold late autumn air. She lifted her ears and looked up as rain drops began to fall from the sky.
"Let's get off the ground before someone calls the cops." She climbed from him and offered him a hand up. The ram took it and climbed to his feet, dusting himself off and giving her a smile.
"Why do this Leo? Do you doubt my feelings for you?" Trace asked pointedly as she crossed her arms over her stomach and gave him a curious look.
"I don't... but..." He shrugged and shook his head. "Seeing how you looked, how you felt when you processed the time gone."
"What of it?" Tracey growled the words, an edge to her voice.
"I don't want you to go after this tour is over. Stay with me while I record the next album. Stay with me on the next tour as well." He spoke the words point blank to her, his eyes fixed on hers with a challenging look in them.
She met his eyes and kept them fixed, as if studying him for a long moment. "What if I don't want to stay after this gig is up?"
"Then stay with me without it being a 'gig'. Stay with me as my girlfriend and partner." His eyes didn't leave hers as they stared at one another.
Tracey took a deep breath and frowned. "Your career Leo... Your fut-"
"Fuck my career. You are my future." The ram snarled the words as he grabs both her shoulders, careful of his hand placement on the right one.
The wolf yips at the words and strong grip, her hands moving to his chest to rest there. "You're insane, Leo... I'm not worth-"
"Shut up!" The ram snapped out, the wolf blinking in shock at his words. "Just shut the fuck up already about that! You're worth it to me! You're worth everything to me, damn it!"
Her large white ears folded and the wolf huffed before pushing her forehead to his chest. Leo moved a hand to rub at the back of her head gently. "It doesn't matter Tracey. I plan to renegotiate my contract after this tour anyway..."
"Is that right?" She drew in a heavy breath as he held her, smelling his strong musky scent. A shiver running down her spine, the words he spoke earlier still clear in her mind. 'Dating your daughter, I love her very much'.
"Yeah. If they want me doing another album and tour. I'm only doing it with you and a proper security detail. I'm also going to try to push out of the pop sector with the next one and try something different."
"What if they don't bite and cut you off?" Tracey spoke out weakly.
"Then so be it, I've got enough money to drop all this. I could take you with me and we could go anywhere you wanted, never work again." The ram spoke the words lovingly, stroking his hand down the long white and red braid of her hair.
She sat there thinking at the words. It was a hell of a thing to say, the idea of just running away with him. "Leo... thank you, but I know you."
"Know me?" He asks, feeling her pull from his grip and step back.
She folds her arms behind her back and looks up. The rain had picked up to a drizzle. "You love your job, you love your fans."
The idol moved a hand to her face and guided her to look upon him. "I love you."
Tracey jerked from his hands and turned from him. She started walking away from him, her tail thrashing about.
"Tracey!" Leo moved after her, pacing up next to her. The wolf cut her eyes back to his then looked straight ahead. Her cheeks were wet, but he couldn't tell if it was from tears or the rain.
"I'm sorry, I just-"
"If you plan to follow me, do it silently." The wolf snarled the words as she kept walking through the parking lot of the truck stop to the entrance. It was like a lot of truck stop depots, just a little oasis in the middle of nowhere, woods and farmland all around.
Leo frowned but kept pace with her, as she walked down the road and away from the truck stop. He knew Max and the others would probably flip out about them being gone, but he didn't care.
Tracey just kept walking, the old asphalt eventually turning to gravel. She walked in the rain for a long several minutes, the ram following next to her the whole time. Her ears lifted as a loud crack of thunder boomed out and the rain began to fall harder.
Leo reached and grabbed her hand and started to pull her from the road. "Don't fucking drag me around, sheep!"
"Oh shut up! We need to get out of the rain, you stubborn dog!" He shot back and pulled the smaller wolf with him through the grass to a large tree for shelter.
Tracey scowled at him but let him pull her until they both were under the large tree. She growled and leaned up against it, crossing her arms over her soaked through clothes, a shiver rolling up her spine.
"Do you hate me now?" Leo asked, leaning against the tree next to her.
"Are you stupid? Of course I don't hate you..." Tracey huffed the words and looked out over the landscape. There were just roads, trees and fields to be seen all around them. The truck stop was at least a mile back down the road and it was pouring rain now.
"Why this then?" He spoke out while looking out over the same scenery.
Tracey kept her arms folded and sat there for a long while, just listening to the rain falling. She was silent for several minutes before she finally spoke out softly. "I don't want to take this from you, Leo."
"You're not taking anything from me." He spoke out in response.
"You say that now, but if you couldn't tour and perform. You would be miserable." The wolf growled the words and looked away.
"I would be more miserable without you." Leo spoke out and stepped from the tree before turning and facing her.
"I'm not going anywhere stupid!" She snapped out and showed her teeth.
"Then stop worrying about my career and just stay by my side!" The ram fired back, pushing his palms to the large trunk of the tree and glaring down at the wolf.
"Yeah? And what about when it gets out? What about when your career is in shambles because of me! All because of fucking me!" Tracey screamed the words into his face, tears flowing down her face as another roar of thunder filled the air.
"Then I will fucking tour casino's and local places! I don't give a fuck about the size of the crowds or money I make, so long as you're there with me." Leo spoke to her in a strong confident tone.
"You're... you're insane Leo! I'm not worth this! I'm... I'm just not!" Tracey snapped the words back, her voice cracking as she shivered from the cold, tears flowing down her face now.
"Will you just fucking shut up about that already? You are to me! You're worth everything to me!" He snarled the words and saw the wolf open her mouth to say something. He pushed his lips to her own before she could speak, a soft yip erupting from her throat, before she was forced into the kiss.
Tracey threw her arms around his neck and pulled her wet body against his own, as he pushed her hard up against the tree. Her wet tail wagged while their tongues rolled and flicked against one another.
Leo pulled from her lips after several moments and snarled the words. "I don't care... I love you..."
She clenched her teeth and blinked into his eyes before shaking her head. "S-stupid... I do too... I love you so much, Leo!" She barked the words out and pushed her mouth back to his, both of them furiously kissing while taking shelter from the rain.
He felt his heart flutter at the words and drew her closer in his embrace, their tongues rolling against one another's desperately. Leo huffed out and pulled from her lips as he felt her hands push hard to his chest. "Tracey... please stay with me... I don't care about the price."
"I..." She gave a defeated sigh and folded her ears before nodding. "Alright... alright you stuborn fucking ram... "
Leo grinned and moved in to kiss the tears away from her cheeks. "I will always be here for you... I will always be your rock and bear your burdens."
The wolf giggled and shook her head."Y-you fucking nerd..." Tracey grinned and pushed her palm to his face, looking into his eyes. "I will always be your shield, Leo... I will always protect you..."
He grins proudly at the words and nods. "Thank you, Tracey... you're my everything."
The wolf barks out a sobbing laugh and hugs close to him before shaking her head. "I... I don't want to go back to a time without you... I don't want to sleep alone again..."
"You won't my wolf... it may be cramped tour buses and hotels, but I will always be with you..." Leo speaks the words lovingly, stroking her wet ears and hair.
"I would stay by your side in a rickety old shack and penniless, Leo." Tracey growled the words and fixed him with a defiant stare.
The ram nodded as he looked back into her eyes and moved his fingertips over her face. "I know you would... I love you."
Tracey gave him a smile and pushed her forehead to his own and spoke out weakly. "And I love you..."
The two stood holding one another for several moments before Leo felt Tracey shiver and pulled closer to her. "Ha... the rain isn't letting up... should we just strike out back to the truck stop, or stand here and let hypothermia set up?"
"Don't be so dramatic..." The wolf grumbled the words and dug her cell phone out, seeing she had no signal. "Hmm... we are off the beaten path I guess..."
Leo frowned and gave a shrug. "So do we just run back and hope we don't get sick?"
Tracey looked around and shook her head. "Nah... we would just make things worse." She frowned and looked up at her ram. "Sorry... this is my fault..."
Leo showed his teeth in a grin. "It's fine... if it's my fate to die today, I will be glad it is with you!" He spoke the words dramatically as he clasped her hands in his own.
The wolf grinned, her eyes shining as she pulled from his grip and shook her head. "You're such a nerd..." Tracey clicked her tongue and looked back at the thicket of trees behind them. "Hmm... I could probably start a fire for us..."
"Really, you've got stuff to do that?" The ram asked curiously.
"I've got bullets and a taser. If I can get a rock to crack open the casing for the gunpowder and some dried tinder buried under forest debris? Sure, I could set it up."
"Wow that sounds amazing, well let's go try to gather up some things." Leo spoke the words out, the excitement in his voice evident.
"Well maybe not..." Tracey spoke out as she pointed to the road, one of the big black buses slowly driving along it.
"Damn... I wanted to rough it with you..." Leo fussed and crossed his arms.
"I will take you camping sometime later you big baby." Tracey spoke the words with a smile as she moved from the tree to wave the driver down.
"You both are idiots..." Max grumbled from inside Leo's bus, the two of them wrapped up in blankets and grinning at one another. The heater of the bus was going at full blast, filling the interior with heat.
"It's my fault, Max, don't blame poor Leo." Tracey spoke the words and leaned against the ram, giving a yawn.
"Well I'm just glad you're both okay. It's a good thing I had the foresight to watch the direction you were leaving the truck stop from." The rat spoke the words as he poured another hot cup of tea and presented it to the wolf.
"Ha... good thing, Max. What would I do without you?" Leo spoke out while sipping his own mug of tea and shivering.
"Apparently freeze to death." The rat spoke dryly.
"Hey, I was about to get a fire going." Tracey spoke out playfully.
"Well that's a relief." Max nodded and folded his arms, looking between the two of them. "You get things sorted?"
"Yes, Dad." Leo spoke to the rat with a grin, earning him a glare from the manager.
"Sorted?" Tracey asked curiously, looking between the ram and the rat.
"Uh... that is to say..." Leo spoke out awkwardly as he rubbed his still damp hair, not sure if he should mention Max prodded him into action.
Max spoke out pointedly. "You were tackling him to the ground, then stomped off with him following you. That's what I mean by sorted, Tracey."
"Oh... Y-yeah, were good Maximillian." The wolf awkwardly looked away with a blush on her cheeks. Leo looked at the rat with an appreciative smile for playing wingman for him.
The rat let his curiosity get the better of him and spoke out. "What was that all about anyway?"
Leo frowned and sat up a little, flicking his still damp ears. "Well Max... I confessed my love to her."
The rat grinned and looked to the wolf as he spoke. "That's great, when's the wedding date?"
Tracey barked out and glared at the rat. "Maximillian, that isn't funny!"
Leo grinned and spoke out playfully. "Spring of course, we will wed in the spring."
The wolf growled at the ram and thumped her tail on the floor of the bus. "Ram... you are pushing your luck with me..."
"I'm on a roll lately though, got you to tell me you love me and..."
"You're gonna be 'on a roll' against the interstate pavement. After I toss your snarky ass out of the doors, while this bus is still moving!" The wolf barked the words at the ram, before pouncing on him and pushing him down. Both of them toppled over in a tangle of blankets and empty mugs.
Max laughed out at the two of them and cleared his throat. "Well... if you two are going to start up, can you let me off the bus first?"
Tracey growled playfully in the mess of blankets while hugging tightly to the ram. "Yes yes... Maximillian, we will wait until you leave..."
Leo gave a laugh and moved a hand to pet at Tracey's hair while sitting up with her against him. "Joking aside though, you've not been in my bus chilling with me like this for a while Max."
"Gee, I wonder why that is, Leo baby?" The rat gave him a knowing smile and looked over to the dog that was pressed to him.
"Sorry, do you boys need some bro time? Should us women folk go to the other bus for you?" Tracey spoke out dryly and grinned at Max.
Leo grinned and shook his head. "No but seriously. I was serious about what I said a few weeks ago. If the studio wants to produce another album. I would love to get you guys in on it. Trixie too."
Max nodded his head. "Yeah, I remember those late nights of us working together in this bus, drinking cold coffee and trying to plan."
Tracey shivers at the thought of cold coffee. "If you think I can be of use, but you better figure out a way to have hot coffee here. Nothing else fill up some thermoses with it before we start!"
"Should we look to get started on that soon, Leo?" Max spoke to the ram curiously.
The idol shook his head. "Not until I renegotiate my contract. There needs to be some changes."
Max frowned and put his hands on his lap. "You're going to let the wolf out of the bag, eh?"
Tracey snorted at the words and rolled her eyes. "Stubborn fucking ram..."
Leo folded his arms "After the tour? Yes. I plan to let it be known very plainly, and if they don't like that, I will call it and move on to a solo career or something. I also will be expecting more pay for the crew as well."
"You play a risky game, Leo baby. However I'm by your side to the end." Max spoke the words and gave a nod.
"It's my game to play and my story to tell." The idol grits his teeth as he shrugs. "The label would drop me once my popularity tapered off anyway. Better to go out on my terms, taking care of my wolf and my friends."
"Your friends and wolf, huh?" Max grins at the words and rises to his feet. "Well... I will reach out to Trixie and let her know you want to enlist her help in songwriting as well. Let me head up front and let your driver know I need to stop so you can have your bus back."
Tracey looks over at the ram and clicks her tongue. "Your wolf huh?"
"My wolf..." Leo speaks back, offering a challenging grin.
The bus had hardly shifted back into gear and pulled back onto the interstate, before Tracey pushed into Leo's arms and shoved her mouth to his in a frantic kiss. He kissed her back all too eagerly, his fingertips trailing through her mussed hair and brushing her white ears.
Tracey broke from his lips and moved to his throat, dragging her tongue up it slowly, tasting him while her tail furiously wagged. "Your wolf... huh?"
Leo gave her a cocky grin and grabbed her hips. The wolf yipped as he jerked her around before he moved his hands up over her breasts. Tracey panted out and lolled her tongue as he grabbed them roughly and squeezed at them. "Yeah... my sexy little wolf..."
She panted at his touch, his hands strong and a little rough on her now. She hadn't bothered changing into a bra so her peaks were hard and sensitive, his fingers seeking them out and pinching at them lightly. The wolf yipped and growled back at him. "Hey! Ngh... w-watch it..."
"Apologies my wolf, I thought you would enjoy me getting rough during your heat." Leo spoke the words in a cocky tone of voice and Trace found herself pushed onto his bed from behind.
She huffed as she hit the mattress and blankets then lifted up on her palms, glaring back at the ram. Her ears lifted as he moved up behind her and grabbed at the boxers she had quickly stolen from his stock and donned earlier. Leo grinned and deftly jerked them down. Her large tail whipped about as he exposed her slick folds to him, visible trails of her eagerness rolling down her inner thighs.
"Ha... you're dripping for me, dog... I'm flattered." Leo spoke the words in his haughty tone as he tugged down his own boxer shorts, his length springing forth, eager and dripping precum for his mate.
Tracey lolled her tongue and shook her ass while looking back and seeing as much smelling his own eagerness. "Yeah yeah... you're a tough alpha sheep, now get on with it before I take it!" The wolf growled the words, then yelped as he grabbed her hips and shoved the tip right up against her, gripping her tail in one hand.
"Yeah yeah... you're a tough doggy, we know Tracey..." The ram cooed the words and pushed forward, taking his time as he felt every inch slowly sink down into his lover. Tracey growled furiously at the words but dug her nails into the sheets, letting him mount her at his own pace.
Finally a few moments later he was buried fully inside her, his tip snug at her core. The wolf sighed happily then moaned in approval as the ram got right to work mating her. "Oh yes... I needed you... I missed you, Leo..."
"I missed you too my wolf... ha..." He sighed out and climbed over her, pushing his palms to the bed next to her own, his chest pushing into her back. Tracey grinned up at him and wagged her tail furiously, showing she approved of the position.
"Fuck you're so good to me..." She growled the words, whimpering and moaning as he bucked up against her, thrusting down into her body intently now. The position was feral and felt proper to her in this state, like an alpha wolf taking her after smelling her desperate heat.
The ram loomed over her smaller body, thrusting into her from behind, the dog yipping and moaning out with each deep push. He could feel her tail brushing up his chest in a happy wag. "You're good to me too Tracey... I don't want to live without you..."
She lifted her ears and moaned out before showing her teeth and panting back at the ram. "I love you too stupid! Now kill the mushy stuff and fuck me!"
Leo grinned at her demands and slid his hands over her wrists, holding them down. Tracey barked out excitedly at the hold, then lolled her tongue and moaned out happily as the ram began to thrust more intently into her. His head crashed into her deeply again and again, making her start to ache from the force he was using.
Tracey grinned drunkenly and folded her ears, feeling him take her in such a dominant way, feeling his length shove hard into her again and again. Her mind was foggy and hazed over with her desperate heat. "Oh yes my love... hold me down and claim me... I'm all yours~"
Leo groaned into her ears, panting into them as he ground his hips. The movements made her body sway and jerk against his bed while she panted out. "I know my wolf... you're all mine..."
She sighed and wiggled her ass against him, as he ground and pushed into repeatedly. The wolf moaned out hotly and then sighed. "Claim me properly my ram... give me a nice strong wolf or ram just like you~"
He bit his lower lip at the words, still not used to this drunken breeding talk. He grinned and shoved hard against the dog in response to her words. She yipped out and gasped as he forced her to her chest, holding a hand against her shoulder to keep her cheek pressed to the mattress. "Ha... only one? How about twins? We could have a lamb and puppy, Tracey~"
She grinned excitedly and nodded her head, her tongue hanging out heavily, her tail wagging furiously against his chest. "Yes, yes... fuck yes! Hurry up damn it!"
Leo bit his lower lip, happy to see her reaction to his role playing and grunted as he pushed heavily into his wolf with a final labored thrust. The ram cried out in a throaty defeated moan a moment later as he gave into her clenching walls.
The dog cried out for her lover, feeling his heat erupt and flood into her womb from behind. She ground her hips back, making his length dig into her while he gave in to her again and again. "Yes... ha... you're such an alpha when you want to be, darling..." Tracey sighed the words in a drunken slur, nuzzling the pillows and sheets of the bed. She felt her walls milk and squeeze until every drop was inside her.
He sighed happily once she had everything in her that he had to give and slumped against her, panting into her ears gently. The ram and wolf both lay there recovering, Tracey's tail still lazily wagging about.
"So... got any names picked out?" Leo puffed the words teasingly into her ear.
Tracey lifted her ear at his words and growled weakly in response. "Shut up..."
"Aww... thought you wanted my puppies and lambs, my wolf?" Leo cooed the words gently into her ears, both hands rubbing at her shoulders now.
"S-shut up damn it!" She barked the words and blushed furiously, hiding her face in the pillows and growling as her tail thrashed about.
"Sorry love, I will lay off the teasing." He leaned in and kissed her cheek softly while hugging against her back. "Still... I enjoyed you calling me darling, that was cute~"
The wolf simply huffed into the pillows and shook her head, not saying anything as she laid there, feeling his weight on top of her, enjoying the heat inside her from their mating.
The two of them laid there for several minutes together, even after he climbed off her and held her in his arms. Tracey smiled as she leaned into his chest while the two of them laid on their side together.
Her ear flicked at the light rumble of thunder in the distance and lifted her head against his chest. "I never liked the rain, Leo."
"I know, Tracey." He spoke the words and held her closer, pushing his warmth against her smaller body.
"It's different now..." The wolf speaks the words gently while he holds her.
The ram smiled against her head, his face pressed to her white and crimson locks. "Is it?"
Tracey shifted and rolled over to face him, placing a hand to his cheek, staring into his blazing green eyes. "I've walked with you in the rain so much now. If it's with you... well maybe it's not so bad." She gave the ram a sad smile while rubbing at his face.
He nods and moves to clasp his hand in hers, bringing her fingers to his lips to kiss them gently. "No matter how bad the storm is, I will look in the eye of it with you, hand in hand."
She gave him a toothy grin, her blue eyes shimmering with tears. "Sappy damn ram... do these lines really work for you?"
The tour arrived on the east side of the country a week later and the winter season had officially begun. The towns and cities were decorated and alive with bright festive lights and yuletide cheer. The last leg of the tour had started and this would signify a long trip down the east side of the country, frequent stops every few days for shows.
A handful of shows came and went as the holiday season kicked off to full swing. Leo had incorporated some seasonal stuff into his act, naturally. The days went by and Tracey and Leo found themselves walking together, on the cold snowy sidewalks of a big city. He had just finished a Christmas Eve show a few hours prior.
"Your show was nice tonight, Darling." Tracey spoke the words gently while clinging to his arm as they walked. She had on a large heavy coat and boots, her red and white braid hanging out of her fluffy knit cap. The spiral of her hair looked festive to the season. Her hands were covered in gloves as well. The whole outfit of white and blue.
Leo grinned down at her while the wolf clung to his arm as they walked. "Why do you say that, Hun?" He was dressed in his own winter ensemble. Heavy coat, gloves, boots, and a large knit cap of his own. The cap was as much to hide his crazy hair and identity as to keep him warm. The outfit was composed of the same cool colors of blue and white as hers.
Once the holiday season began, they had made time to do some shopping together, each picking out a winter wardrobe for the other as a holiday gift. Tracey had insisted on spending her own money while picking out his, despite Leo's protests.
"Because some of your holiday songs are nice, plus you wouldn't stop looking at me while singing 'All I want for Christmas is You.'" She gave him an amused grin, her ears folded under the knit cap while she pushed closer to him.
"It's true." He hums the chords from the song while walking with her, their feet crunching in the snow while making their way through the city. They finally made it to their destination, a large square within the city's center, a massive decorated tree at the heart of it.
The two stood there on the fringes of the square, a handful of other couples dotting the surroundings, but most of the cities denizens already having retreated from the cold and night.
Tracey glanced over at the large clock tower in the square and saw it was already a few minutes after midnight. "Merry Christmas, Leo." She grinned up at him then gave a coy smirk. "Or happy holiday's or whatever is politically correct these days."
The ram laughed and moved a gloved hand over her face before moving in to softly kiss her lips for a heartbeat. "Happy Christmas to you as well, Tracey. My love..."
She grinned and pushed her head to his chest while he embraced her. She listened to his strong heart thump in his chest while lazily wagging her large white tail, snow having dotted over the fur of it. "The year is almost over..." She spoke the words quietly.
"Has it been a good year for you, Hun?" He spoke softly while moving his hand down her back, brushing snow off her braided hair.
"It started off as garbage, like every year for the last decade or so." She grumbled, then pushed her cheek closer and nuzzled his chest. "Thanks to you though, it's been the best one of my life."
The ram looked up at the shining lights of the tree, the snow seemed to glitter and sparkle in the strobe lights that illuminate the display. "I will make the coming year even better for you, and the years to follow..."
Tracey nodded and huffed against his chest while hugging tightly to him. "I think... I want some cocoa."
"Yeah? I'm sure I can find an all night coffee place around here that will have it." Leo pulled her close, setting his feet in motion. The wolf nodded and kept clinging to him as they walked.
'I hope it's snowing right now where you are, Helen. Hopefully you and your family are happy. I think I'll be okay from now on, Grandmother.' Tracey thought the words to herself with a smile, feeling tears in her eyes. She pushed her cheek closer to Leo's body, feeling the small book shaped pendant inside his coat, resting against his chest.
