Confused: Tessi and the Adult Store
#2 of A Worthwhile Life
As a forenote: If you are dissatisfied with the fact that Iefan has no interest in Tessi, take it up with my life. If you could actually get that to change, that would be really awesome. Heh. Fun, eh? XD
Confused: Tessi the Fox visits and Adult Store
Iefan wrapped one arm around her waist, while one of his paws held tightly to the back of her neck. He nipped at her ears tenderly, firmly enough to draw a yelp. Tessi ran her paws over his bare back, down to his tail, enjoying the firmness of the muscles beneath his fur. She
paused to kiss him passionately on the mouth, feeling a lustful flush run up her front, a silent signal of utter desire. He dropped a paw to her thigh and began to slowly slide it upwards...
Tessi woke up, sweating. She had talked to Iefan a few days before. Unsuprisingly, he only cared for her as a friend. That didn't make him less handsome, but the fact that he was interested in another fox did help Tessi give him more room. She respected his honesty. She was also still in heat. If only! But she couldn't force herself on him. She already felt embarassed looking at him. Every time he smiled, she blushed, and her head felt light. She had an aching desire to toss her inhibitions aside and pounce on him, to hell with the onlookers!
She fingered the scars along her arms, where her fur no longer grew. She had had problems in the past with rejection, and had taken to solving them with a knife. For the most part, she was over it, she was stronger now. But she was glad her friends had not noticed she had been hiding her wrists for a few weeks. She hurt, she was lonely, but she still felt she could not confide in anyone. She had hoped Iefan would listen... but that would be abusing a friend. She wanted him physically, yet she care for him deeply as well. But she couldn't! She couldn't even want him with her heart, without feeling like she was violating his trust...
And Tessi knew the longer she went without relief, the greater the possibility she would lose all control. What were her options? Sitting in class, in anthropology class of all places, she came upon an obvious, if novel solution. An adult store. She had never been to one, too shy to do more than glimpse inside once in a while, curious.
She had resolved to visit one right after school that day, after she had finished with lunch. There was one not too far from where she lived. It had tinted windows, and a mildly suggestive title. Sure, she might be going home afterwards to her parents to do laundry. Sure, whatever she bought would be sitting out in the car - and her dad always walked her to
the door when she left. Sure, it wouldn't remove any emotional interest in Iefan. But... would it hurt? Metaphorically, at least. Tessi assumed the better products had a little bit of hurt built right in.
*****
It was three o' clock. The sign read "The Red Fox Comes." The sign was tinted, but she had forgotten there was also a metal grate protecting the unseen merchandise. Was it really that good? The street the store sat on was busy with traffic, the earliest hintings of rush hour. Hurriedly, Tessi opened the door and stepped inside.
A normal bell rung with her arrival. She would have been more impressed if there had been a panting sound, she thought idly, surveying the store. There were two main rooms, and presumably a third hiding behind a thickly beaded curtain. Her mind began to wander to Iefan again, and she suddenly felt the urgency of a purchase.
The first room held a lot of videos, whips, handcuffs, and some massage oils. Well, the whip, handcuffs, and oil could wait. Unless, of course, Iefan changed his mind... She shook her head and ran her eyes over the videos. There was a rather tasteless assortment of titles.
"Snow White and the Seven Inches," Tessi said out loud, looking at a picture of a pretty white cat apparently enjoying herself with several well endowed men.
"It's a classic," someone said behind her. It seemed a clerk had snuck up on her silently. It was no wonder - he was a cute, stealthy white tiger. He grinned lasciviously. Tessi put down the former childrens story and picked up another movie.
"Ah, Two's company, Three's an Orgy" the tiger nodded, "A good lesson in the various uses of gravity." He gestured with his hands in a way Tessi thought must have been meaningful. She didn't get it. The tiger selected the next title for her.
"Angel in Heaven," he read.
"That doesn't sound so bad," Tessi replied, "Let me see." There was a picture of clouds and, yup, two vixens - one with a strap on.
"Twins," The clerk smiled. "Bet you could tell." Tessi sighed, dissapointed.
"These all seem aimed at men..."
"Would you like to see some gay videos instead?" The clerk stepped closer, putting 'Angel in Heaven' on the shelf behind her, leaning close in the process. His scent was exotic, enticing.
"I think," Tessi said, catching her breath, "I'd rather not have double the reminder of what I don't have." The clerk grinned. His nametag read 'Riann.' He leaned in closer, one hand still on the shelf above her.
"You could always make some of your own..." He whispered in her ear, sending a thrill down her spine. Tessi ducked under his arm and walked into the other room. It took a lot of self control to walk away from a cat like that, especially when she was this worked up. The store made things worse - even the smell drove her to further desirous fantasies.
It seemed she had walked into a medieval torture room, if all medieval torture devices were made of plastic, and had cute names. Something called a bunny took up half a wall. It didn't look like a bunny. It wasn't even fluffy. The clerk, slightly miffed that his target had
walked away, follwed Tessi and picked up an item on display in the center.
"Here, turn it on." He said.
"What, do I have to kiss it?" She retorted, a little ruffled by her lust.
Riann didn't respond, instead pressing a small button near the bottom after handing it to her. It felt strange, slightly soft and pliable. It was a familiar sensation. Tessi wasn't innocent, but she was unfamiliar with the self-serve side of sensuality.
The long, red item began throbbing in her hand. Then a strange protuberance started spinning and the top - the head - began to groan in a circle.
"Holy frickin..." Tessi dropped the dildo, "It moves!" Somehow, it was more frightening than erotic. It squirmed about on the floor until Riann stopped to pick it up, and turned it off. It had looked sinister, alive. Tessi wouldn't be suprised to see a slightly modified version in the next Alien flick.
"You seem to be picky, miss." Riann said softly, his voice husky and deep. "Most women love that one."
"I... don't have a lot of experience in this particular area." Tessi grimaced.
"I see." He smiled. "Need some teaching?" Riann moved closer. Tessi backed away, uncomfortable, but the only thing behind her was the corner.
"I don't want teaching," she lied. She wanted teaching - hell, she wanted a spanking! But not from him. Her heart began to race. Despite her fear and trepidation, her body had detected a potential mate.
"You're gonna be a hard pupil then," He growled, grabbing her wrists. She struggled, but her desire kept her from putting up an effective fight. He flung her over a shoulder and dragged her into the back room behind the curtain. Tessi screamed, and kicked her legs, her tail
lashing him unmercifully in the face.
He flung her onto a bed, still holding her wrists, and tried to pry her legs open with his own. She kept her legs resolutely shut.
"Stop it, bitch! I know you're in heat! Let me 'help'." He bit her neck - hard - and Tessi screamed again.
"Get off!" She cried, tears streaming down her face. Riann let go of one of her wrists to undo his pants zipper. "Leave me alone!" With the freed hand she clawed at his face. He snarled and hit her in the stomach, knocking the air out of her. Angered, and scared, Tessi began to bite his arm as hard as she could. He released her other wrist to slap her face.
It stung, and tears welled in her eyes, but through the haze of pain Tessi saw her opportunity. She levered herself up, and kicked Riann as hard as she could in the place that meant the most to him. He doubled over, cursing, and Tessi ran out, shirt torn and hanging off her shoulders.
She made it to her car before Riann made it out of the store, and she streaked out of the parking lot as he cursed at her. She barely made it back home. When she unlocked the door of her apartment, she was sobbing.
Tessi collapsed onto the floor, body wracked with adrenaline and misery. The worst part was - she had wanted it, physically. Not that way, though. Not with a strange tiger in an odd store, on someone elses bed. Not at the mercy of a sadist with a taste for the naive.
She shut the door, turned on all the lights and sat in a corner. She wanted to call Iefan, to have him rush over, to be held in his arms. She was hurt, both physically and emotionally.
"Iefan..." she whispered, "I wish you knew that I need you..." Tears ran in a stream down her cheeks. Oh, for comfort! For the feeling of protection and safety! She couldn't call the police... she was scared of everyone. She was alone, and she was full of a desire that now turned her stomach. Tessi went to the bathroom, and returned with a razor blade.
She sat back down, and hung her head. Droplets fell to the floor as she turned her arms up.
"Iefan..."
Will Tessi wreak vengeance on herself for lack of self control? Will Iefan come to her side?
