Puppies and Owners. Chapter 2 - Rules and Cheaters
#2 of Puppies and Owners.
Author's Note: Sorry it took so long, but with the holidays and everything I kind of got lazy. Thanks to everyone who commented or bothered to read it. It's so appreciated. So here we go... again. :).
_ I'm the best now! Anybody with some money should invest now, soccer moms need to organize a pep ral, your game over bitch gatorade, wet towel, motherfuckers ain't ready, they never been, as long as I am in the game you'll never win! I'm on that different type of high, heroin, put on my cape and hit the sky, heroine._
"Nick, wake up," a familiar voice said. I was lying in the bed and opened my eyes to see RJ looking at me. I didn't even have time to pick an emotion.
"How dare you? You stupid motherfucker! Don't fucking talk to me, don't even look!" I screamed in a fit of rage.
"What? I'm sorry!" RJ cried and tried to place his paw on my shoulder. I knocked the paw away.
"Not working this time. Start talking."
"Nick-"
"I don't want to hear anything except for why you are leaving me all the time. Otherwise, take me home," I said solemnly. My nostrils were flared and pure anger boiled in my blood. I didn't know I was sharing my boyfriend with my ex-boyfriend.
"Ok, fine," RJ huffed and sat next to me. His eyes searched for something else to look at besides my own fury-filled blues. "When Kaiden was little, he was picked on a lot. The only kids that liked him were the younger ones. He met Trent and Lori and they created this... club, I guess."
"A club?" Kaiden was a little old to be playing secret club games.
"Well, more like a group of furs, but you get the idea. Anyways, they called it puppies and owners. It started out innocent enough. Kaiden would claim a little boy and kiss him and then make him kiss Trent and Lori, but as they grew they wanted different things. Kaiden raped and killed a kid and made Trent and Lori watch. Then they created rules. No owner could touch another owner's puppy without permission. Puppies only have three rights: eat, sleep, and death. Owners can release their puppies. Puppies may only associate with other puppies at puppy parties. On the puppy's eighteenth birthday, they may choose to leave the club or become owners. There are literally tons of rules and very few loop holes. All owners are sworn to silence and there are over fifty owners today."
Alright, stop. I know this can seem very confusing. I am still a little confused as to how this works, but basically, Kaiden is a freak. Play.
"What does this have to do with anything?"
"Everything! You were Kaiden's puppy."
"No, I'm not. He never asked me!"
"He doesn't half to if you slept with him on the first night you met. I'm assuming you did because he didn't tell you any of this and Kaiden likes to trick his puppies."
"Wait, I don't understand. Were you Kaiden's puppy too?"
"Yes. They can free a puppy whenever they want. Tyson is Trent's. Ashley belongs to Lori and you belong to Kaiden."
"Why did Kaiden free you?"
"Um, he didn't..."
"Well, then how..." Oh. I was getting mad again.
"Yeah, I'm an owner."
"So, what I belong to you now?"
"No! Have I ever made you feel that way?"
"It doesn't matter! I can't leave without your permission, can I?"
"Nick, you can leave whenever you want! It doesn't require you to act like Kaiden."
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"I couldn't. Not without breaking the rules. Remember, we sort of... did it, the first time we met."
"Yeah, but that was with a bunch of other people!"
"Kaiden knew that. He made sure no one in that bedroom could tell you. He's very good at covering it up."
"This is bullshit, RJ! How am I supposed to trust you when you can hide things from me because of rules?"
"I would never do that! But I can't break the rules!"
"Why?"
"Kaiden gets my brother if I do," RJ said quietly. I felt kind of bad now. I wouldn't want another kid to go through what I did. Especially someone close to me.
"Well, why don't you just claim your brother as a puppy to protect him?"
"Because I would have to drop you and then Kaiden could ask me who you are and then you'd be right back with him. Right now, you are untouchable by anyone, but me."
"He's your brother, RJ."
"I know, but he's safe. Just please understand my reasons."
"Is that why you have to go with Kaiden?"
"That's the why, but it's not what we talk about."
"What do you talk about?"
"Kaiden's next puppy..."
"Do I know him?"
"It's Seth." My muzzle hit the floor and my heart stopped beating.
"WHAT!?" I screamed, "RJ! You cannot let him have Seth!"
"I can't stop him. It's completely up to Seth."
"Seth knows what Kaiden can do though so he should be safe, right?"
"You know Kaiden can get to him if he wants to."
"Why Seth?"
"Well, I mean, Seth is a pretty sexy husky and he's a little, um... gullible. He seems like the perfect target for Kaiden."
"Not if I have a say so. I want to go to Kaiden's."
"Are you stupid? No way! This could have like seventeen bad outcomes!"
"I don't care! I'm safe with you, right?"
"My brother isn't and neither is Seth!" I thought about what he was saying. If Kaiden didn't know I was alive then he could go after Seth just to spite me.
"Can I at least warn Seth?"
"No, it's against the rules."
"Fuck the rules!"
"We both die if you fuck the rules!"
"Oh well, I've done that before." I stood to leave the room when RJ's paw wrapped around my wrist.
"Don't be stupid, Nick. Please. I'll-" RJ was interrupted by his ringing cell phone. "Hello?" I sighed in irritation. "No!" RJ paused, "Ok. I guess I don't have a choice." He slammed the phone shut.
"Your wish has come true. Kaiden is throwing a puppy party here tonight. Seth is coming too."
"Good."
"Not good," RJ sighed and fell back on to the bed.
"Where is your brother?"
"At school for now, why?"
"Maybe we can hide him."
"Kaiden can find anyone he wants. No matter where they are. Just try to play tonight easy... for me."
"I will," I promised with a small kiss to his muzzle. Well, not promised.
I spent the rest of the afternoon helping RJ clean and get ready for the party. My anxiety made time drag by very slowly. RJ looked even more nervous. I wanted to assure him that I would be good, but I was worried for Seth and I didn't want to make a promise I couldn't keep.
Eventually, party time came around and we greeted Trent, Tyson, Lori, and Ashley first. Tyler came as well, but his poodle was missing in action. They carried on conversations with themselves while I watched the door anxiously. After what seemed like hours the doorbell rang and the entire room went silent. Everyone knew that Kaiden didn't know I was still alive. Talk about tension...
RJ slowly walked to the door and I followed, but kept a nice distance. RJ glanced back at me and took a deep breath before placing his hand on the door knob. The slowly opened and on the other side of the threshold stood the grey muscular wolf that killed me and the small blue husky that loved me. Kaiden's eyes instantly found me and I looked away. His face was priceless.
Alright, stop. You know that face people make when they think you're dead, but you really aren't? Well, I'm sure you do. It's like indescribable shock, isn't it? I used the phrase "muzzle on the floor," but this is seriously like muzzle on the floor. Play.
Kaiden regained his composure and turned his shock into a smirk. "Well, if it isn't the Nickster."
"Alive and well," I teased.
"That explains a lot," Kaiden said as he crossed the distance between us and towered over me with an amber glare. "It's been too long..." The subtext was clear to everyone.
"Not long enough," I replied. I sounded fearless, but inside I knew that my knees were weak and my stomach was sick.
"How about a hug?" he said slyly with his arms open.
"You'd have to talk to RJ."
"Ah, so you've figured it out?" Kaiden grinned and leaned closer to me. "I can still get you," he whispered, "No matter where you are or who you're with. I made the rules and I know all the tricks. Play carefully Nick." Kaiden smiled and joined the rest of the party. Seth spared me a glance and a nod before joining Kaiden.
"Is that it?" I asked quietly.
"That's it for you," Seth replied quickly. His words stabbed me in the heart. My best friend couldn't even look at me. Can I blame him though? I chose RJ over him. I shook my head clear of the thoughts. I couldn't have feelings for two people at the same time. It wasn't fair.
RJ served drinks and drugs to those who did them. I was surprised to see Seth with a joint in his paw, but then again he was with Kaiden. I was pretty buzzed by the time Tyler left. "Let's play a game!" Ashley said.
"Yeah! Truth or dare!" Lori added.
"That's such a typical party game," Tyson whined.
"Scared?" Lori teased.
"No!"
"Then let's play."
Alright, stop. Truth or dare is a very fun game and after you hit puberty, every dare revolves around doing something sexual. Normally, this is the first game everyone thinks of, but when your boyfriend, your ex, and your ex-best friend are in the same room... it's no good for you. Play.
"Who goes first?" Trent laughed.
"Me!" Lori blared. "Kaiden, truth or dare?"
"Um, I'm going to play this first round safe," Kaiden laughed.
"Bitch, ok, um, do you love your new puppy?" Kaiden and Seth shared an awkward glance before he answered.
"I wouldn't say love, yet."
"Ouch," Ashley whispered with a giggle. Seth rolled his eyes. I didn't want to play this game anymore. Kaiden glanced around the room for his target. The amber eyes lingered on me before they continued scanning.
"Er... Seth, truth or dare?"
"Me?" Seth whined, "Dare."
"I dare you to make out with Tyson for a minute." There was a little shock around the room.
"Kaiden...," Seth whined. Kaiden's expression didn't change. Seth stood and made his way to Tyson. I was already feeling jealous. I shouldn't have. I had no right to be jealous, but I felt it. Seth leaned over the lion hesitantly and connected muzzles. My blood was boiling as their tongues searched each others mouth. There were giggles from other watchers. After a few seconds, the husky pulled away from the lion. I took a deep quiet breath and glanced at RJ. He was watching Kaiden intently.
"Um, ok, Trent, truth or dare?" Seth asked.
"Dare, baby," Trent replied.
"Ok, um, I dare you to... lick RJ's chest."
"What!?" RJ yelped, "Why me?!"
"I couldn't think of anyone else," Seth explained. He threw a glance at me before returning to Kaiden's side.
"Oh, we've done it before RJ," Trent said as he plopped next to RJ. RJ lifted his shirt to reveal his forming six pack. Trent immediately ran his tongue over the sandy brown fur. The Doberman ran his shiny red tongue over RJ's nipples causing RJ to moan quietly. More giggling and more jealousy. Trent stopped and gave RJ a sexy look. "You liked that, didn't you?"
"You know it, Trent," RJ teased and pulled his shirt back down before Trent returned to an angry looking Tyson. "Ok, um, Lori, truth or dare?"
"Bitch, I'm not scared of you. Dare."
"Ok, then, I dare you to blow Kaiden." There were gasps of shock.
"RJ! You never do dares like that!" Lori yelled.
"Well, I just did! So do it." Lori sighed and walked over to Kaiden. She got on her knees and the room got exceptionally quiet. I could see Seth's face turning red. He didn't like the idea of her doing his job apparently. She leaned close to Kaiden and then blew a strong wind of air into his face. Kaiden laughed and so did the rest of the room. "What!? That's cheating!"
"No, it's not! I blew him!" Lori defended.
"Ugh, whatever."
"Yay! It's my turn again! Alright, now someone is getting it for real this time. Who's up?" The whole room went dead quiet and waited for Lori to pick her victim. I tried to hide behind RJ. "Um... Nicki, truth or dare baby?" FUCK!
Alright, stop. In truth or dare, you're given two options, but really there's only one option. If you choose truth everyone calls you a pussy and you never do any dares. If you choose dare then you are practically dooming yourself to do something sexual to someone you are not with. Sexual encounter or pussy.... Sex. Play.
"Dare..." I moaned.
"Hmm...," Lori hummed quietly. She was thinking of a good one. Suddenly, a flicker of delight came across her face. "I dare you to suck Seth's dick." I could have died. The whole room got quiet again and I glanced at a nervous Seth. He wasn't any more comfortable than me. I slowly stood and walked over to Seth. My heart was pounding with anxiety. I felt very awkward kneeling in front of him. Seth sighed and glanced at the shirtless Kaiden before he removed his jeans. I dipped my head lower so he wouldn't feel embarrassed about taking it out. Once the boxers were off, I locked my muzzle around his furry sheath. Soon the thick pink member began to protrude into my throat. I moved back and worked my tongue on the sensitive flesh. Seth was struggling not to moan because people were already laughing. I'm sure they thought this was hilarious, but it was painful for me. I didn't want to blow Seth. I decided to stop sucking and removed my muzzle.
"There," I said plainly, "Tyson, truth or dare?"
"Dare, baby!" Tyson yelled.
"I dare you to let Kaiden fuck you," I laughed. The room gasped and chuckled, but I didn't stay to watch. I quickly escaped to the kitchen. I leaned against the sink and tried to clear my mind.
"Nick," a whisper called. I shot back to reality to see Seth sneaking into the kitchen.
"Yeah?"
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing, I'm fine." Liar.
"No, you're not. I'm your best friend. I think I would know."
"Ok, how about what the fuck are you doing with Kaiden?"
"Nick, he doesn't treat me the way you said he treated you. He's a really nice guy."
"Are you fucking kidding?! Seth, you saw what he did to me!"
"He's different now!"
"Bullshit!"
"Why do you give a fuck anyways? I told you..." Seth's voice began to crack with emotion. "I told you I loved you and you chose someone else."
"So that means go pick up the most dangerous person you know?"
"He's not like that!"
"Then why are you acting like you don't know who I am?"
"Because you don't care about me!" Seth hissed, "All you ever think about is you and how everything turns out for you, but-" I pressed my muzzle against Seth's uncontrollably. I loved RJ's kisses, but this one tops all others. There was so much emotion. Anger, jealousy, love, hate, anything a fur can feel all in one simple moment. Our tongues fought passionately for dominance. I was still in love with Seth...
"Wow," a voice interrupted.
"Kaiden!" Seth yelped, "It's not what-"
"Save it. We're leaving." He didn't sound angry. Kaiden gestured for the husky to follow. Seth looked torn, but ran to catch Kaiden. I realized the whole room had seen the kiss.
"R-"
"And I'm the one who can't be trusted?" RJ sneered as he stormed out of the house. Awesome. The Nickster fucks it up again.
