While You Were Sleeping
#26 of Miscellany
This is what sleep deprivation does to you. This was a story prompt I threw at someone else, but I don't think they were going to use it, so I took it back. C'est la vie!
Running on two legs was an
adaptation long ago granted to many of the species living in these woods. Their
history told of a past where this was not true, but for anyone's present
lifetime and those of their parents, grandparents and beyond, two legs were the
way the higher species went about their daily lives.Other physical aspects had changed
over the course of the passing years, while some things remained the same. Take
for instance the wolf clans. Wolves still roamed in packs, but now there were
some distinct differences. Often, there was an excess of males, so the young
extraneous boys would group together for protection and stick together until
breeding time, when they would go off to challenge the older males who held
large harems.But that was only once a year, and
the rest of the time they either had to suck it up or get their needs off on
each other.Arto was the de facto leader of a
pack of around eight males. They were a tight knit group, prone to infighting
but never in a serious manner, and well known over a wide area for the sizable
domain that they called their own. While it might be considered theirs from a
wolfish point of view, there were others they shared it with who had other
opinions about their domain.It was their hope that if they
claimed a good hunting ground, the females would come to them, but for now, in
the early months of winter, no females took notice of them. So they simply
hunted and patrolled the borders of their territory, routinely marking the
boundary to lay claim to all the land they thought they could protect.They had run into trouble earlier
in the year when Korani had taken exception to their professed borders. Korani
claimed part of their lands as her own, but after a few run-ins, the pack and
she decided to ignore each other for the common good of all. Besides, where the
wolves had strength in numbers, she had strength in size. Their meetings had
proved to be nothing more than standoffs, and Korani had better things to be
doing than wasting hard gotten energy on fighting stupid, insignificant males
of another species.With the winter snows covering the
ground, and both food and shelter harder to come by, the pack ranged outside of
their region, often times being sent retreating by other packs with greater
numbers. At times they nervously made their way through questionable areas,
unsure who, if anyone, claimed reign over the land.One day, feeling more angry than
hungry, the group was walking along a ridge of snow when one of their number
let out a yelp before disappearing under the thick layers of accumulated
flakes. They all turned to see what had happened, half fearing some sort of
ambush."Chartok!" the leader called down
the narrow sinkhole that had suddenly opened up."I'm fine. The damn snow gave way.""Can you get out, or do we need to
dig you out?""I don't know. This hole goes all
the way into the ground. Do you think I should see where it leads?""Why? With the entrance covered
over it can't hold any prey."Chartok's voiced grew to a whisper.
"No, but I think something else is down here. Be quiet a moment."Arto didn't like to be told what to
do, but he understood that a bunch of silly yammering was hardly a stealthy
method for investigating a situation. He told the others to clam up. A moment
ticked by before they heard back out of the hole."Hey boss.""Yeah? What is it?""You really need to see this."Since the voice coming from the
hole held just a touch of awe to it, Arto decided that whatever it was, maybe
it was worth investigating. He was a little put out by the fact that his
pack-mate couldn't just say what he had found, but maybe it was of such
importance that he felt the leader needed to see it and decide what to do about
it.The moment he dropped into the hole
his hackles went up. The smell was familiar, and yet, he instinctively knew
that for the moment he was safe. It was dark, as holes often were, and his eyes
had to adjust after coming from above in the snow-reflected sunlight. He heard his fellow pack member first
before making out his dim shape in the gloom."Chartok, we shouldn't be in
here!""I get that boss, but think about
it. It's winter."He was sniffing the dank air. "This
is a bear den, and you know the trouble we've had in the past. If we get caught
in here...""Boss, relax. This isn't just any
bear den. This is Korani's place!"Arto jumped back a little. "Is she
here?""Of course she is. What else do the
big dumb brutes do during winter?"He fought down panic. Chartok was right.
Bears all hibernated during the long cold season, sleeping the deep sleep to
conserve their energy. No one ever had the nerve to disturb one before. It was
difficult to say what this big bitch would do if she was awoken in some
unceremonious fashion."Let's get out. I'll not have
anyone under my protection getting killed because you fell down a stupid bear
hole.""But boss," whined his subordinate.
"Bears sleep the sleep of the dead. Legend says that nothing can wake them
until spring thaw!""I don't want to find out! Now let's
go!""Boss, wait. Think this through.
She's here all by her lonesome. We have an opportunity we shouldn't ignore."Arto thought it over. "Look. I
don't like Korani, but I'm against killing and eating another meat eater. She
may be big, stupid and mean, but killing her in her sleep is repugnant to me.
She deserves a better death than that."He could almost hear Chartok's eyes
rolling in his head. "No boss. We can catch game like always. This here den of
hers is pretty big. With all of us in it, there would still be room for more.
So it'll provide plenty of protection when we need it.""It still sounds risky. What if she
wakes up?""She won't. They never do, which is
why they tend to hide their dens pretty good. But you still aren't seeing the
big picture boss.""Enlighten me." By this time it was a little easier
to see into the recesses of the carved out hollow. There in the back of it,
sprawled out on her back, was the great she-bear. She hardly seemed to be
breathing, and she was as unmoving as the carcass of a fresh kill. Her great
bulk was as big as a mattress, and as warm and inviting as a bed of moss during
the summer.Chartok crawled between her massive
legs, grabbed her haunches and began humping away. Arto nearly screamed, but
wisely backed away to be out of the main part of the den when she came too. He
was far enough away to feel moderately safe, and watched in fascination as his
friend railed away on their biggest foe's crotch. After several minutes, during
which time he had to field questions from those who remained above, he found
that bears did indeed sleep the sleep of the dead.And the worst part was, he was
getting horny watching the other having the time of his life. It might be a
terrible idea, but for the moment, he could find no strong case against it."Hey! Get your asses down here.
Chartok made the discovery of a lifetime."They dropped down one at a time,
sniffing he air and getting the mixed odors of their foe comingled with the
obvious smell of sex. It didn't take long for the entire group to go through
the stages; fear, acceptance and a sudden willingness to stick their engorged
cocks in this huge hunk of flesh. A few even mentioned killing her afterwards,
but Arto quieted those remarks."Don't be stupid boys. She'll be
out for the entire winter, or so I've been assured. I say we let her sleep her
sweet winter's sleep, and we can come and go as we please. With any luck, we
might not even care about our own kind when spring rolls around."Chartok was barely listening to his
boss. He had yet to find a mate during his short adult life, so this was his
first real time with a female of any sort. Despite his knowledge that she was
out cold, the whole thought of nailing a dangerous beast like Korani had made
his cock painfully hard. And despite her great size, her hole was remarkably
tight. The pointed tip of his cock had slipped in with no trouble, but when his
knot seized up, he knew that had she been awake, a massive roar would have
escaped from between those ferocious teeth.His toenails dug into the dirt, and
his fingernails raked her hips as he put forth every ounce of effort he could
muster. And through it all, her breathing never once altered and her body never
twitched. If this was the way it was going to be then the boys where only going
to regret the coming of the winter thaw and nothing else.Chartok pounded away on the hulking
form for an hour, blasting dose after dose of wolf cum into the body of their
affirmed foe. His friends soon got irritated with him until he pointed out that
the bear had more than one hole. Arto climbed up on her face, not without some
trepidation, and slipped his cock past those formidable teeth. Her jaws were as
limp as an autumn leaf, and in no time his hips were a blur as he face-fucked
Korani until he ran out of energy and cum.When he finally slid off of her
muzzle, her face was dripping with white, frothy cum.After that there was a pause as the
group worked to reposition her somewhat onto her side, opening up a third spot
to work over. One member of the pack took over her cunt, while another lubed
himself up with some salvia and penetrated her tail hole. His grunt was one of
complete satisfaction."Goddam! I could get to liking this
a lot!"Never in the history of ursine kind
had any bear consented to having a cock in each hole, and even more
importantly, a cock capable of expanding to the size a wolf's did. Both males
went a little crazy, working in tandem, exerting their sexual energy coupled
with the deep anger they had towards their sworn foe. They didn't hate her
exactly, but they understood that she was superior to them in many ways.But they didn't hibernate.She did.Which gave their leader an idea."Hey! I say that we should keep
track of where she makes her den each winter. I could get used to doing this
too!"And it was agreed that they would,
as discretely as possible, stake her out every winter thereon, and after
suitable time had passed, make their way into her abode for a winter of titillating
fun. As for the present time, the boys
made use of Korani round the clock. Oh, they would have to stop to go hunting,
for now more than ever they needed food to maintain the large number of
calories they were burning. On the other paw, the den was nice and warm with
all of the bodies packed into it, and more so with all of the heat they were
making in their energetic activities with their unconscious playmate.Day after day they spent less time
patrolling and more time plowing into their newfound toy, knowing full well
that once the weather started to break, they were going to have to vacate her
den for good. Even then, a few discussed staying on, for it was known that a
springtime bear was weak and wobbly. But Arto squashed that idea.He was taking his turn on her ass,
working it in until his knot was positioned just inside her sphincter. He
groaned a little before he was able to concentrate on making words. "Look boys, as much fun as I think
it would be for her to be awake during all this, we need to be gone before she
knows what's been happening. If she catches on to even a glimmer of what we've
been doing, she'll hunt us down and kill us. So there'll be no pressing our
luck."He concentrated on what he was
doing. Her massive form hardly even moved as he put his best effort into raping
her ass. Even now, after weeks of abuse, it was as firm and tight as it was at
the beginning. He understood the boys' reluctance to leave before the last
possible moment."Oh, I guess it won't hurt to stick
around right up to the time she starts to recover. Lord knows I'll be missing
her to no end. Heck, if worse comes to worse and she wakes up in the middle of
something I guess we'll move to another
location for the summer and come back in the fall."Chartok grinned. "What's the matter
boss, has our little pet become a bear necessity now?"Arto ginned from his position over
her stubby tail. "I couldn't bear to leave her for any longer than absolutely
necessary.The den was filled muted groans
from the others.Only someone with a grizzly sense
of humor found ursine jokes to be funny.
