Bound Together
With her own heat right around the corner, Kai figures it best to at least try something with Aeltia and start to figure out just what the bear woman might want from her relationship with Zav and potentially herself and even Gwyn. So that's where this chapter starts! It ends with a bit of plot progression, but hey, before that? It's mostly smut (and Kai and Zav having gotten a bit more knowledge about BDSM relationships... and Kai discovering something about herself~)
“Alright, so... might as well get into it, huh?” I said; for this evening, I’d clad myself in a nearly sheer indigo robe... it was just solid enough that I was fairly decent, but light enough that the full sleeves and long length didn’t bother my foxy-bunny self. I did have on a pair of somewhat matching underwear, too. Zav was shirtless beside me (more accurately, I was leaning against him with his wing around me) on the couch, the blue-and-white dragon in just a pair of black-and-lime-green gym shorts. Opposite us, in an armchair in Zav’s place, was a polar bear woman dressed equally as plainly, really: she wore an oversized threadbare t-shirt... and that was about it, from what I could tell. Maybe some lingerie beneath, but we’d not gotten a glimpse of that... yet.
“P-Probably for the best, Mistress.” Aeltia said; my tail flicked a bit and I waved my hand.
“None of that... yet. Honestly, I only did the whole ‘Mistress Foxtail’ thing on a whim to get you to talk to Zav. Not that you’re not lovely, but I kinda feel like I forced you into a corner with that.” I told her, fighting my blush the whole time. “Besides, it’s Zav you’re actually interested in, isn’t it?” The bear took a moment before she shook her head.
“Initially... yes, that’s true. But if you are his partner, I wouldn’t feel right about any sort of relationship that didn’t involve all three of us. I guess four if you count Glacé... I mean Gwyn. I mean, I am bi... or I guess pan? Intersex has never been a dealbreaker so long as I knew ahead of time.” Aeltia said, though she did relax a bit. “But... you’re right, you said this was most likely to be talking, tonight?”
“I mean, nothing’s off the table, but the more I read, the more I got... concerned about making this a fairly casual thing.” I said.
“And once she laid it out... I had to agree. Depending on what you want out of it and what you want to have happen, it might be best to have more than just a passing friendship.” Zav said with a sigh, his talon running along my back. He said the motion seemed to calm him, so I put up with the shivers it ran down me (they were good shivers, but they made it really hard to focus most of the time). “So... just what are you looking for?”
“And please, be specific... and we made sure Delia or Gwyn wouldn’t interrupt us tonight.” I told Aeltia.
“W-Well... I guess I mostly want to be kept out of my own head? Or maybe it’s better to say that I want to be kept in the moment? Whether that be with stimulation, over-stimulation... even pain.” Aeltia said with a blush. “Tasks to fulfill, goals to reach... partners to make feel good. With my more... vanilla relationships, I find my mind wandering and even getting a bit bored. Or I get anxious when I think about other things I could be doing.” Okay, I had to admit, most of that sounded... almost exciting to be on the receiving end of... though pain... well, it wasn’t a dealbreaker, but it wasn’t a dealmaker either.
“And what kind of goals were you imagining?” Zav asked. We’d both been looking into that, but the articles we could find in the small window we had looked were extremely vague about specifics. And honestly, some of them were so extreme or seemed hard to imagine, we weren’t sure how any of us three or four would react to them.
“Oh, um.... stuff like getting to swallow, or unlocking new activities... positions.” Aeltia said; I nodded in thought.
“What about orgasm denial? That... was kinda big in a whole lot of the admittedly brief literature I read.” Zav said.
“Not the biggest fan, but at the same time... it is another tool to help me focus on the moment.” The polar bear’s voice was quiet and her fur was nearly crimson on her muzzle.
“And... given that it is mating... and that we’re likely to have our own kits to deal with...” Memories of the previous weekend when Gwyn was in heat suddenly flashed through my mind and made me shiver a bit. “W-what are your thoughts in that regard?” I asked. And... Aeltia’s fur skipped from crimson to bright scarlet.
“I... dunno... honestly. It’s a... strangely exciting thought, to be pregnant with a master’s cubs. N-Not necessarily yours, Zav, just in general is what I’m meaning.” Aeltia quickly said. “But... I would want to wholly trust said master; I would also want to know he, or I guess, they, care about me beyond just being a toy...” I blushed a bit when she switched it from ‘he’ to ‘they’. Oh great, another girl to fantasize knocking up someday~... “I don’t mind cubsitting/cubrearing, though.” My ears perked up at that. The logistics of having a big family were complicated; something that wasn’t lost on me. To have another set of paws around to help with that, pet or no, would be a huge help!
“Though, feeding could be a challenge still...” I muttered outloud, tail flicking a bit. And... suddenly Aeltia looked like she was about to pass out. Zav just looked confused, but my eyes went wide. Aeltia seemed to notice and look at me pleadingly, but I shook my head: she’d have to learn her potential master wasn’t the most... intuitive (or honestly perverted, as far as I could tell).
“... Fine, yes... I do like the idea of breastfeeding. Either as a cub-minder or as a kink thing. I mean, these are rather large. Might as well put them to their proper use.” She cupped against her chest; they were easily E cups now that she was doing that. And given her tall, powerful build, that meant they were pretty big. Perky, too, it seemed. “I mean, I never tried it, but the idea is... interesting.”
“That’s good to know, though it’d be a ways down the road still... don’t even know when or how many kits we might wind up with.” Zav said. I tried to beat down my excitement, and arousal, at the thought. Even if we would likely have to invest in hormones to start and not just knock the bear up, that did not stop me from imagining both myself and Zav trying, at least. Ugh, and here I thought my sex drive had finally been sated, but it seems like it didn’t need too long to recover after trying to breed Gwyn. My nose twitched when I realized I could smell Zav’s own arousal, too and I poked at his side. He snorted slightly and hugged his wing around me a bit more. I could only imagine what was getting him worked up.
“Fair enough.” Aeltia said; I swear there was a note of disappointment in her voice.
“But if you want to start the hormones for that, I mean.... wouldn’t be a bad thing.” I said. “At least to experiment and find out; I’m sure Delia’d appreciate the help, too.” I tilted my head a bit. “Okay... that kinda touches on another thing, then... loaning out?”
“I mean, to others in the studio? Probably wouldn’t mind so long as one of you is there. Beyond that, though? No go. Even at conventions.” Aeltia said quietly; the poor woman looked ready to pass out. I motioned to the water bottle Zav’d given her and gave a reassuring smile; she down the whole thing and took a few deep breaths.
“And just how much... bondage are you into?” Zav asked.
“Mostly no limit on that, I think? I mean, fantasies’ve gotten pretty wild before, particularly during heat. I’m assuming we’d have a safeword/gesture system?” She asked.
“Of course... still trying to figure out a system for if gestures or speech aren’t possible, though.” I stuck my tongue out and the bear let out a huff. Zav snorted as well and I just rested my head on his shoulder in a nuzzle.
“... You two sure about this, though?” Aeltia asked. “I wouldn’t want to be a source of drama or anything.”
“I mean, this is new for us, too. But Zav gets... pretty excited about me with other women at least. For some reason.” The poor dragon in question nipped at my ear and made me giggle. He’d never told me why; he even said he couldn’t explain it. “And I will admit the idea didn’t... thrill me at first, but... when I said all that to you? It sort of clicked. Plus... Zav can’t get too rough with me. So if he does ever get the urge to go all out...” It hadn’t escaped my notice that he did get lost and get rough a few times, but he always caught himself before I had to say something about just how hard he was thrusting through my cervix. Aeltia tilted her head and I hmmed a bit before motioning her over while I leaned up and kissed Zav, my hand slipping into his shorts and finding his swollen sheath. His wings tensed for a moment when I squeezed against the plumped, scaled flesh, but he relaxed and purred into the kiss; I felt his sheath starting to pull back and I used my arm to push his shorts out of the way. I looked out of the corner of my eye and broke the kiss. “On your knees~”
Aeltia blushed but did as she was told, settling on her knees in front of Zav. I went back to kissing my partner, my fingers squeezing along his sheath and then the exposed, dark blue dragon flesh that appeared for the bear woman. I heard her start to murr.... and then whimper: I got it; ten inches of dragon cock was pretty intimidating, particularly with all those ridges. Zav lifted his hips and I worked the shorts off entirely for him before tapping on Aeltia’s nose and motioning for her to come closer. I watched out of the corner of my eye when she pressed her muzzle against his base, a thrill running through me that she did as she was told, even non-verbally. I scratched behind her ear and she let out a soft whine, which made me break the kiss.
“You alright?”
“Y-yes mistress... I... just want more...” She muttered softly. I nosed against Zav, who was watching her curiously.
“R-right! Well then, you can use your tongue and muzzle on me.” Almost immediately, Aeltia’s dark tongue started to lick and lap along his ridges, dancing against them. I felt Zav shudder and giggled, kissing his nose.
“But no swallowing when you do bring your master to release, alright? Be careful, he cums a lot~” I murred, getting up off the couch and stretching. Aeltia nodded that she heard before swallowing as much of Zav’s length as she could, his wings flaring out while I heard his breathing shift and he let out pleasured rumbles. I could hear her swallowing, too, around my partner’s length while I slipped around behind the couch; Gwyn and I’d gone back to the lingerie store (where I’d gotten this robe; I figured I should wear something other than just shorts or underwear while we were talking) and found out they had a pretty extensive fetish-wear and bondage section in their basement. While there, we’d settled on a number of collars; what I got at the moment was one meant for Aeltia... and it was much more obviously a ‘slave’ collar.
I slipped behind Aeltia while she worked, her eyes closed as she focused. She started to bring a paw up, but with a couple of pantomimed signals from me, Zav’s tail caught her rear. “No paws, not yet.” I nodded with a wink and he blushed, though shivered and growled; I was a bit surprised and he blushed further. I knew that growl; that was his ‘I’m holding back, but super close’ growl. It hadn’t been that long since she started, had it? “H-hey, we’ve gone a few days without any sex at all, give me a break. We weren’t exactly subtle about what we were talking about, either.” He stuck his tongue out at me and I smirked.
“It’s fine, hun. But your new toy doesn’t get some praise at least?”
“Oh, she’s surprisingly talented.” He rumbled out.
“Is that so? I might have to try her out sometime~” I felt her shiver as I scratched behind her ear, but judging by just how much harder Zav started to growl and grind his hips into her muzzle, I got the feeling she didn’t mind the idea. He let out a low groan and thrust his hips against her muzzle; I could hear her let out a ruff of surprise and pulled her muzzle back after a few coughs. And then smirked when she started to cough again while trying to contain all of Zav’s seed in her muzzle without swallowing: I saw some of it drool back along his length when her muzzle was full. “Good girl~” I slipped the thick, dark brown leather collar around her neck, an ‘antique’ silver nameplate left blank on it while I knelt down beside her. I tapped up on her jaw to get her off of Zav’s length and pulled her muzzle over for a kiss.
She whined into it, but she obediently pressed our muzzles together eagerly while my tongue went about cleaning out that dragon seed. I audibly gulped it down while making out with her, my tail swaying as I pet against her jaw with a reassuring, praising murr. “Good girl, you can swallow whatever’s left. And clean your master up~” I winked when I broke the kiss. Aeltia’s fur was just... vermilion at this point, but she let out a grateful murr and turned to lick at Zav’s groin, cleaning his scales and murring at his taste. Zav motioned me over and kissed me as well, purring into it while the bear’s tongue cleaned him up.
“You still alright, hun?” He muttered, and I nodded with a smile. “What should we do next?” I hmmed and shrugged; sure, watching and directing that was... kinda hot, but I wasn’t too worked up.
“Hmm... well, I’m alright still. No need to overwhelm our new toy~” I winked at Aeltia. “So... think we can stop for the evening. Unless our toy has her own needs?”
“N-Nothing I can’t handle on my own, mistress.” Aeltia said, almost too quickly. I raised my eyebrow and she blushed and shifted her hips a bit. “I-I can’t help but imagine what master’s cock would feel like... But he might be a bit big for even me.” That surprised me, a little. I didn’t think Zav was particularly hung for his size... but I didn’t have any real-world comparisons, admittedly.
“I’ll have to loan you my practice toy, then.” I shrugged. I gave Zav a kiss before leading the bear up to my room and showing her said toy and sending her to her room. She gave me a hug before she left (a fairly suffocating one, but a good hug nonetheless). I found Zav in the shower back in his apartment.
“And here I thought I’d be sleeping alone tonight.” He chuckled; I’d barely managed to get out of my meager clothing before he pulled me into the shower with him. “Thanks for willing to try that with me, Kai.”
“Hey, finding out I quite like being in charge myself~” I ran my hand along his jaw and pulled him in for a kiss. Our tongues danced together as the water made my fur cling to me fairly tightly.
“A shame, so if I did...” His voice dropped an octave and his claw gripped at my rear. “Something like demand my sweet fox-bun bend over and lift her tail for me?” He rumbled; it sent a shiver down, and up, my spine and I felt my folds start to grow warmer, wetter. I whimpered and, instead of verbally answering, gave his chin a light, submissive lick and slid around him to brace myself on the bench seating he had in the shower, bending over with my tail raised. “So... naughty bunny likes to switch?” I felt his talon press into me, grinding down on my clit and making me squeak as my cunt squeezed down on him and fought the water with arousal to try and make the penetration more comfortable. That talon made my cock shoot out of my sheath, too, still somewhat hard from watching Aeltia earlier.
“O-Only for my dragon master~” I managed to get out; my reward was a second talon filling me and I let out a gasp, back arching as he angled the sprays further up my body. It made me have to close my eyes as his fingers started to pump in and out of me fairly steadily, my legs shaking a bit and threatening to buckle when I felt something against my orbs. I’m pretty sure it was Zav’s tail? “M-Master~” I cooed back, trying to inject a grateful tone around the moan that started halfway through: it was like his touch was waking my sex drive back up, and given it had been a few days since I even had the urge to mate.... it was starting to wake up with a vengeance.
“Did my pet like watching someone else get her Master off~? If you tell the truth, you’ll get an even better reward~” I bit my lower lip, unsure just what Zav meant, but part of me was really eager to find out.
“I-It was thrilling, but-but I was jealous she got a mouthful of Master’s cum directly from him. Even I haven’t had that... though Master’s cum so deep in me feels good anyways~” I wiggled my hips, panting under the fingers pushing into me and letting out a whine when I felt those fingers pull free, hips bucking into the air.
“Oh don’t worry, once your full of our kits, I’m sure you’ll get more than a mouthful often enough.” He growled; the shower made his voice a little odd, but even so... it didn’t sound like it came from his usual height.
“M-master eager to breed his little bunny-slut~?” I wiggled and yelped when I felt his tail spank against my rear.
“My pet is certainly not a slut... cock-sleeve, maybe, but my cock-sleeve.” I heard his desire... before I felt his tongue push into me. I whimpered: his tongue was more slender than his fingers, sure, but that didn’t stop my cunt from squeezing down and mixing arousal with saliva. Particularly once he started to explore and I had to lean against the bench even more. It took a few moments to register what he meant by what he said, the wave of pleasure starting to break against the shore with more and more force and making it harder to think.
“S-Sorry Master~” I groaned out, groan turning into a moan with a squeak when he kicked it up a notch. Suddenly, I felt his talon cupping my orbs, gently rolling the sensitive balls within while he pressed... his thumb, I think, against my clit. At the same time, his tongue seemed to curl and wrap against itself to become thicker and started to writhe around inside of me. The intense pleasure made my eyes flutter a bit as it made me pull my hips forward to try and get away from the onslaught on instinct. I whined when Zav followed me, my panting only growing louder as the pressurized tensions of both of my orgasms started to build up. That talon-thumb on my clit started to move in small circles and I huffed and shivered, biting my lower lip. My cunt was just about to start spasming and I could feel the pressure of my seed about to break when my Master suddenly stopped all attentions. “M-Master, please...” I whined, not even hesitating to beg. Or register the thrill that sent through me at the moment.
“Relax, my pet~ Just let your master take care of you.” I just whimpered and wiggled my hips as enticingly as I could while those tensions eased in the most calming, most distressing and most anti-climatic way, just fading as the water continued to rain down on my back and hair. I... wasn’t sure how long Zav was waiting... or what he was waiting for, but suddenly, a player I didn’t expect was pushed into my cunt, it’s familiar shape greeted with a loud yelp and my walls hugging Zav’s cock like a long lost lover, desperate to keep him close in my grip. “F-Fuck, Kai, holding on a little tight there.” Zav growled in surprise.
“M-Master got me too worked up~” I moaned back. Suddenly, I had wings wrapping around me beneath my arms, hugging me up against Zav’s form and I pressed back into him with a needy growl. He slid an arm around my shoulder from behind, the other holding my hips and I couldn’t help but squeak as I was lifted up, my weight impaling my body on his cock further while he adjusted his stance. He guided one of my legs to hook behind his while he turned to brace himself back against a wall; I followed his lead and wrapped both of my arms behind his neck and got rewarded with a buck that sent pleasure up and down my whole form and made me moan. I closed my eyes, head leaning back while I felt him start to bounce me along his length. And then he started to slowly thrust up into me, this time water running down my front, caught in my fur and behind his wing. If I wasn’t a herm, a lot more of said water would be getting in the way and making this mating a whole lot less fun. My bouncing, drooling cock and orbs were keeping the water away from where my cunt was swallowing Zav’s own cock.
Fuck, in this position? Zav’s ridges were grinding hard along the length of my clit and I could even feel them rubbing into my prostrate a bit as he let more and more of my weight ease him deeper into me. The arm around my shoulder moved a bit, bracing his wings against me before his talon wrapped around my neck. My eyes went wide and something clicked in my mind as I lifted my head back up and back to rest against his shoulder and neck. Each thrust into my body made me gasp out a moan, and in my partner’s excitement (I’m fairly certain he wouldn’t have done this while realizing it), the arm on my waist and the hand on my neck grew tighter. I let out a yelp: the way my cunt started to convulse and rhythmically milk my dragon for his cum set off my own cock, too: the spasms in time made my seed shoot out into the shower as Zav’s tip started to push into my womb again. The angle we were at... he couldn’t get as deep as usual, but he could still get at least deep enough to make sure I wasn’t going to be drooling too much a mess all at once.
Even so, Zav’s hand grew tighter against the sides of my neck as he picked up his pace, bouncing me off his hips throughout the orgasm that... only felt more and more intense the harder he squeezed. And it was... difficult to breathe, but not hard, though my mind was starting to feel a little hazy by the time I felt him lean me forward to get a better angle and slammed his thick knot into me. That just set off another chain reaction of orgasms, this time involving the dragon holding me up and his jets of seed painting my core... and then filling it like he hadn’t just cum not too long ago. And I... I was a mess of leaking cums and a panting, drooling, pleasure drunk (and I figured out later, oxygen-deprived-high) fox-bun; I was only dimly aware of Master’s speech causing some sort of vibration in our bodies for a few moments as I was filled more and more.
“...Kai!” I blinked, my ears twitching to life and let out a groan. “S-scared me for a second there, love.”
“So-sorry.” I felt like I was stumbling out of a fog of sorts and everything started to fall into sharp relief. “I... was a little out of it. You kinda were holding a bit tight there, hun.” I wasn’t sure when it’d happened, but Zav was sitting with me in his lap, though with his knot inside of me, it was a bit of an awkward angle for him.
“What!? You should’ve said something.” I shook my head a little, back arching in a stretch that tugged and ground my hips down into Zav’s with a shiver up my spine.
“I would’ve if I hadn’t liked it...” I muttered back, ears falling slightly in nervousness. If I did like being choked like that... what was Zav going to think? I felt him nuzzling at my neck a moment later and I let out a groan, my whole body still feeling a bit sensitive. That included my swelling lower belly; I never felt how much cum he put inside of me so acutely. “Relax, love... though my body’s still singing at the moment, so... not too much movement, alright?”
“Yes ma’am.” He rumbled out, kissing my neck and making me shiver and whimper. “Not going into heat early, are you?”
“I... don’t think so? My heat’s more insatiable. This is just... everything feels on fire in a good way.” His claw ran through my tail, the water raining down on us still. That wasn’t helping, either, but was consistent enough that it wasn’t hurting. “Sheesh, even my tail...” His claw-combing was sending small shivers along my spine.
“Alright then.” He rumbled, kissing at my neck again. And my shoulder. I was suddenly aware of how much my palms and toes hurt from clenching up for too long, wiggling out my toes while unballing my fists. “Sorry, I really should’ve asked-”
“Master can take whatever he wants or needs from his fox-bun cock-sleeve~” I murred and wiggled with a wink. He blushed and snorted at that; I was starting to figure out that if he got too into the role, he’d get embarrassed about it afterwards. “In all seriousness, it’s fine, hun. May have woken my sex drive back up after trying to breed Gwyn put it to sleep, though.”
“Is that so?” We both nearly jumped out of our fur and scales when we heard the arctic fox. She was standing, nude, just outside the shower. I blushed... more because we hadn’t realized she was there. That I was knotted, sitting in Zav’s lap and with a slightly swollen belly of dragon cum inside of me... well, that was maybe 10% of my embarrassment. She smiled, though, slipping into the shower and kissing first Zav and then me. “I came to see how it went with Aeltia, but... that was quite the show!”
“H-How much did you see?” Zav asked, I was just murring as my vixen partner’s paws went about properly cleaning my fur.
“Enough to find out that apparently our sexy fox-bun here likes being choked?” I squeaked and whimpered. “Hmm... maybe it’s more like she liked being choked by you?” She asked Zav; given the way my cunt shuddered and squeezed on the tied dragon, making us both shiver, it seemed like Gwyn hit the nail on the head. “Good, not sure I’m into being rough. And... not a fan of hand choking, by the way.” She kissed my nose. “Now... leash and collar~?” She murred out with a playful growl.
“S-Should definitely find you a collar then...” I muttered, letting out quiet, slightly whimpering groans when Gwyn started to work over my neglected breasts with furwash and brush. “Sounds like someone’s own drive is waking up?”
“... Slowly. It was... amazingly hot watching you two, of course. But I’m fine, no need to worry, you two.”
“If you’re sure? I’m pretty sure if Kai’s not up for something, I could at least use my tongue.” I definitely wasn’t going to be moving too much at the moment, though I was pretty sure I had strength in limbs again. I was just... tired.
“Yeah, I’m sure. I’m still a bit... over-fucked, I guess?” Gwyn pushed me to lay back against Zav; we both whined while my folds pulled against his knot until Gwyn’s fingers slid down and worked my folds open. The gentle touch combined with the stretch of Zav’s swollen knot made my eyes flutter and I let out a moan as the vixen worked our dragon’s knot out of me. Even so, his cock still was nestled within me, my walls like a blanket for the impressive length. “So, how did Aeltia go?”
“Pretty well, I guess. We started out simple enough, I think.” Zav said, his hand running along my fur. He did unwrap his wings at some point, so he used one to pull Gwyn closer, making the vixen giggle.
“Doesn’t seem like she did much, though.” Gwyn’s paw joined Zav’s talons, petting against my belly as if I was full of kits and not just the batter. Even so... I felt myself shiver.
“Oh no, she still got a mouthful of him. I’m almost worried this one’s gonna make me pop during my heat.” I huffed. Zav let out an embarrassed growl and Gwyn laughed. I took the furwash from Gwyn and started to groom her in return; Zav joined in and we both wound up kissing and nuzzling... a lot of the arctic vixen, much to her happy murrs. I paid special attention to her breasts and belly; I knew it hadn’t been long and we didn’t even know... nor would her body, even, but even so... it was hard to imagine we hadn’t put at least one or two kits in her belly during her heat.
The next morning saw us waking up with Gwyn snuggled back against Zav and with me facing them both; I’d fallen asleep petting against her belly, imagining her heavy with our kits (which... may or may not have shown up in my dream, as well). I gave them both light kisses, trying not to wake them, but Gwyn just pulled me into a deeper one before we slipped out of bed to let Zav sleep.
“So... choking? And the plan for today?”
“I had no idea before last night.” I huffed; even the memory made me shiver and bite my lower lip. “A-And if it wasn’t Zav, I’d probably be more freaked out. And we were going to check out the lot next door; Zav’s considering expanding given, well... neither of us is likely to have just one kit.” I gave the vixen a kiss on the cheek.
“Oof, yeah... I’d consider myself lucky if I get away with just two or three after all that mating~ My sister wound up with six for her first litter, remember?” I winced slightly; Gwyn’s older sister may have been the one who made me realize I had a pregnancy/breeding fetish. She was considerably older than us both, though, and had a proper mateship ceremony around when Gwyn and I had met.
“Ugh, yeah... that was hectic whenever she asked us to kit-sit.” I grumbled... and then blinked. “... Please don’t have six on our first litter, hun. We’ll have me on top of that, most likely.” I started to cook breakfast (which was leftover fish and veggies with fried eggs and some hashbrowns), getting everything set up.
“Can’t promise that and you know it~! Just imagine how big I’ll get~” She kissed my cheek. “I’d heard a vixen’s upper limit was somewhere around eight~? I wonder what you’ll be able to do~?”
“... Besides bend you over the counter? Sounds like someone’s ready to be mated again.” I curled my tail around her waist, nonetheless. She leaned against me with a quiet hmm.
“Getting there, for sure. The show last night helped. And I wasn’t asking if you knew you liked that, by the way.”
“Oh! It just... sorta happened, I guess, and I found I didn’t want to stop it.” I was blushing and shrugged. “It’s not like Zav was trying, he just got a little too rough in the right way.”
“Fair enough. I know he’s a sweet-heart, but I’ve heard horror stories that even the sweetest guys...”
“I’d.... rather not be able to imagine that. He actually got a little upset I didn’t tell him, honestly.” Gwyn giggled. “What about your day, though?”
“Oh, just that meeting with the lawyers and a team of image consultants about what all of this is and how we should handle it.” Gwyn sighed, more of her weight against me.
“Sounds like something I should be at.” I sighed; Gwyn stepped back as I started cooking in earnest, instead leaning against the counter. I couldn’t help but admire how the morning sun caught against her white fur... or how her curves cast shadows with said light against her self, even. I almost missed the rack when I put the leftovers and hashbrowns into the oven.
“Probably, but I don’t want to overwhelm you. It isn’t until later, though. Like... dinner meeting later.”
“Would mean we wouldn’t have to cook or order out...” I mused. “Or at least I wouldn’t; I’d feel bad about leaving Zav out, though.”
“Oh you’re more than welcome to join us, Zav.” My ears twitched and I saw the dragon doing his best to open the fridge quietly; I’d guess to get his cold brew. While I never got into coffee, he definitely enjoyed it in the morning.
“Maybe; I want to, but if we do want to buy that lot, I’d be distracted with trying to plan things out, whether we wind up wanting to demo that eyesore or not.” I rolled my eyes: yes, the mansion next door was a bit ‘classical’ and ‘plantation-y’... okay, yeah, it wasn’t great to look at in a neighborhood that embraced wood, glass, plants, and solar panels. If it was ivy covered... maybe? I went about frying the eggs, tail flicking about a bit. “I know it would be cheaper to leave as is...”
“Oh no, I get it.” Gwyn said. “It gives off this haunted mansion vibe. And given it’d be my home too, I’m assuming?”
“I think Kai would kill me if that didn’t happen...”
“Well, not kill... but you would get a lot less fox-bun tail.” I huffed.
“I’m quite happy to help with the cost. At least of the house... not sure I’d be able to help with anything else you might want to build there. Even with the three of us, and kits, that much land would be... a lot for a whole house. If we want it cozy, that is.”
“There’s been a bit of talk of a daycare center, one for those on the team, like Delia and hopefully you... and I know Thie and Kise are trying here soon, to use. And to have for the public as well; there’s not a whole lot around here for options in that regard. At least according to Jaya.” Zav said.
“Jaya? He’s not mated or even dating, right?” Gwyn asked. “I thought he had something for Thal?”
“Oh he does; he’s more worried about keeping the team happy and together, though. And saw a business opportunity given the demand in the area and our own funds. We could raise salaries, but it’s not like any of us are hurting.” Given they were just talking about straight out buying the land next door and construction projects, I’d assumed as much given how popular Zav’s series were. “Though, might... finally give in and let someone make a show of Unicorn Knights.” He sighed.
“... Excuse me?” Gwyn said. I tilted my head.
“I swear I’d mentioned this... Zav’s an author.”
“Yeah, you said that. But there’s a difference between superstore paperbacks and, well, getting offers for shows and movies! Or, you know, being a best-seller!”
“Are they?” I got the food out of the oven and plated everything when the timer went off. Zav rumbled out his appreciation and gave me a proper kiss to wake me up (laced with coffee-breath, but whatever).
“Well, yeah. Granted, it’s in a corner of the market that’s... not all that well populated, at least with anything good and not overtly pornographic. Kinda surprised though, Zav. Didn’t think you were into guys.”
“Well, I am bi.” My ears twitched. “Or I guess pan? Honestly not sure what label, I’d never considered an intersex partner before simply because... didn’t think of it; I do prefer feminine partners, though. Jaya’s not my type, for instance. I’d almost say Kai’s perfect.” I blushed a bit.
“Almost?” Gwyn hmmed.
“Well, not knocked up yet~” I squeaked and let my tail hit his leg. Gwyn laughed and leaned against me while we ate. And I tried to get my blushing under control. After breakfast, she gave us both a kiss before heading out... after the three of us got dressed. We had some time to kill before the real estate agent would come over, so we worked on our various assignments... after setting an alarm to be sure we didn’t miss our meeting time.
When the time did finally arrive, we made a couple of wraps to eat while we walked over; a rather cute border collie showed us around (and after what Zav had said this morning, even if I wasn’t into guy on guy so much... it was hard to not imagine the effeminate border collie’s muzzle buried in Zav’s crotch for a little while). But Zav was right: in addition to the architecture, whoever lived here before hadn’t really designed with larger species in mind. My poor dragon partner hit his head or wings so many times he looked exhausted by the time we made it back to the foyer. Even if we didn’t demo the place, there would be so many renovations to be done we might as well start from scratch.
“At least the foundation seems good?” I said while Zav was signing paperwork; he’d called Jaya and had him on speakerphone.
“Yeah, for the daycare at least; we’ll have to look into all the requirements for those.” Jaya sighed; it seemed he’d hoped the mansion would be better than it looked. “And we already knew the property extended, so you three can design your place from the ground up without issues, I imagine. Cost, on the other hand....”
“Will come from us, no worries on that, J.” Zav said. “I’m more concerned about the pool and the rest of the land, honestly.” The mansion had it’s own pool, too. So Zav was... annoyed about having two pools to maintain, apparently? Ugh, to be able to be annoyed by that and not just outright worried. Even if we were together, it was still weird to think about.
“We’ll figure that out; I imagine the daycare, and the families on staff, would rather have a playground/park area.” Jaya said.
“I’m also kinda concerned about privacy... don’t even want parents realizing there’s a horny poly family not too far away.” I sighed. The collie blinked and nodded in agreement (his name was Steven, by the way, but we learned he was happily mated and monogamous). “I mean, we’ll fully disclose it, of course, that there are families on the premise, but I’d rather not them be able to even risk seeing our place.” It’s not like I was afraid others were prudes, but... definitely didn’t need them either trying to take a peek or seeing something they, or more importantly, their children shouldn’t.
“That’s what landscaping and fences are for.” Jaya said from the phone. “But definitely something to consider.” I flicked my tail a bit as I thought about it: a fence was... boring, but I’m sure Zav and I could figure something out. “Well, I gotta get back to work.” Jaya was on ‘campus’ but holed up in his room while he ‘went crazy’ as Zav called it with the design ideas he had. I didn’t know the full details, but he, myself (by benefit of being Zav’s partner.... and having similar issues), or one of the leads would have to check on the gryphon to make sure he was eating, sleeping, and not making too much chaos out of his room. Apparently they’d had to call maids a couple of times. At least it was only my computer files that looked like a crime scene; Jaya had notebooks, books, loose pieces of paper....
Once everything was signed away, Zav gave me a kiss and sent me off to meet with Gwyn with a sigh; he figured I knew enough to speak for both of us... and that I’d either err on the side of caution or text him if something else did come up. But between his own design work and now wanting to get started on the studio’s expansion (particularly the daycare given Delia was due in a month or two) and needing to find help with that, he would be way too distracted to contribute to the conversation anyways. Luckily, I’d dressed rather smartly, if I do say so myself: an actual, light indigo blouse (though sleeveless) and what I could only describe as charcoal brown pants; Gwyn would probably know the actual color, but all I could see was a chalky, dark, slightly grey brown.
Dinner was good, though; it was at the same café I met Zav at, though this time we did sit outside given the size of the group. A couple of older lizards who were lawyers (apparently twin brothers) and a tiger woman I actually recognized. She was someone my parents had spoken to a number of times, though I didn’t remember her name (much to my embarrassment; it turned out to be Sharon). She was there with a wolf mate, who seemed to be Gwyn’s business consultant; Sharon was the image consultant. Given how much I was in the public eye when I was younger... yeah, I could see why my parents had consulted with her.
“Alright, so... let’s just get it out there. What, exactly, is the relationship Gwyn’s mentioned?” Sharon asked after the food was done.
“Well... it’s still fairly young, I’ve only been with Zav a few months, and Gwyn even less than that, but... well, it feels strong.” I said. “And given the research paper that will come out... I’d much rather get ahead of anything.”
“That’s fair; what will this paper entail?”
“Well, it would be kept as anonymous as possible, but ‘fox-rabbit hybrid’ kinda makes it obvious given my siblings are the only other ones even remotely old enough to be worried about the mythic factor. Add in that there’s only one subject... and that I’m a hermaphrodite, and now carry that same factor, and that Gwyn and I do want kits.” Gwyn gave my hand a squeeze and a kiss to my muzzle. “Kinda figured at least one tabloid would find it... and then a pregnant semi-famous model/designer arctic fox living in the same area... and an arctic fox would be seen on dates with me, hopefully.”
“Oh you bet~”
“Sporting designs by Glacé that hadn’t been released yet?” I raised my eyebrow.
“Ugh, yeah, and once one tabloid gets ahold of it...” The wolf growled. His name was Caleb (and, to my surprise, the two of them did have cubs at home... Sharon did not look like someone who’d had cubs).
“So... yeah, was wondering if there was anything in Gwyn’s contracts about spilling who she is... Or poly situations.... or kits.” I sighed.
“Nothing comes to mind from a legal stand point, no. Gwyn’s been free to reveal she’s Glacé at any point.” One of the lawyers said (look, their names were Aaron and Erin, on top of being twins, I’m not about to even try to guess who was who). “And Glacé doesn’t have any sort of morality clause tied to it as a brand, either.”
“Some investors insist on those.” Caleb explained; he saw my puzzled look. “But given the brand dabbles in all sorts of fashion, including lingerie and high fashion, I wasn’t about to let those hamstring the company.” Gwyn gave an appreciative murr.
“What about my image?”
“That’ll... be a bit harder to figure out. Without the mystery of who Glacé is as a designer and model, we might lose some of our more high-end clients. Maybe; it’s been long enough that revealing shouldn’t be too big a deal.” Sharon said. “Though, do appreciate the heads up. Glad to see little Kai’s grown to be so thoughtful~” I sunk in my seat a little. “I am... a little worried about the mythic factor and hermaphrodite thing for you, though.”
“Oh, yeah, that terrifies me.” Gwyn made a noise of worry and I kissed her nose. “I did consider trying to pass it off as Zav’s litter, but...”
“Yeah, it’ll probably be pretty obvious. And honesty would be better up front than a lie in the hopes you can hide the truth.” Caleb said. I’d shown them a picture of Zav (a G-rated one from the picnic with our families). “Is there... any sort of legal protection she can apply for so paparazzi don’t come seeking her out? Or these hunter characters?”
“Well, this ‘mythic’ hunting is already technically illegal, but it’s near impossible to prove in legal standards.” One of the lawyers said.
“As for the paparazzi... no amount of legal red tape will cut through them. Though...” The other brother spoke up.
“What?” I tilted my head.
“Streaming.... might? They’re all about exposure, but if you expose enough, there’s no allure or mystery.” The lawyer said. “It’s not fool-proof, of course, and opens you up to all sorts of harassment that you will need to keep track of in case the worse happens.” I could feel my fur standing on end.
“Almost sounds like I should get a security detail.” I half-joked. “I’d say self-defense, but if I’m carrying kits, doubt I’ll be able to fight or anything.”
“Wouldn’t be a bad idea, honestly. In general, particularly if you’ll have kids on the property.” One of the lawyers said. I made a note to talk about that to Jaya.
“So it sounds like it shouldn’t be too big a problem... though we probably should’ve waited on trying to start until after we talked to you guys.” Gwyn sighed, leaning against me. And then blushed; I felt her tense beside me.
“... And just when were you going to say something?” Caleb asked.
“I didn’t plan that far ahead! Well, beyond designing maternity wear. Kinda figured that’d give it away.” Gwyn huffed. Caleb just rubbed his temples while his mate laughed.
“Alright, so... when are you planning on doing this?”
“It probably won’t be until we know, for sure, if anything took.” I said; I wasn’t sure how he’d react to a comment about how surprised I’d be if it wouldn’t be in a couple of weeks. And that’s for Gwyn, at least. While my heat was around the corner, it would still be a while (in theory, at least) until we knew if I had any kits, too. “Or before the paper’s published, but that shouldn’t be for a couple of months.”
“... I’ll figure something out for a couple of weeks then.” The wolf said; I blushed and winced. “I don’t normally put too much stock in stereotypes, but this was your reunion. If you kept your paws off each other for more than a few hours, I’d be impressed.” And that made me sink into my seat even further. With Gwyn right beside me.
“What about living arrangements?” Sharon asked.
“It would be kinda silly to not live together, even if it’s just my room...” I said. “But Zav and Jaya did just buy the land next door; the reason Zav’s not here is trying to get a head start on researching just who we’d need to talk to about all of that. Everything from the daycare to a new, proper house for our family. His place wouldn’t have a sizable enough nursery, we figured.” I managed to not blush. Somehow. I think.
“Hmm... I would like to keep my apartment for now, though.” Gwyn said. I frowned. “You guys are just starting a project; I don’t want to be a distraction moving in or always coming and going.” I huffed; I already quite liked the idea of at least snuggling her to sleep every night. “Not with construction being a distraction already.”
“... Fine, though I don’t like it. Particularly if you start to get all big.” I huffed again. I managed to keep from adding ‘sexy’ to that, barely.
“I promise, I’ll spend plenty of time with you two~” Gwyn gave my hand a reassuring squeeze.
“Well, I think we’ve satisfied the answers we needed.” Sharon said. “Here’s my card; at least give me a text when you hear any news or make any decisions.” She handed me a business card and I nodded. And after a lot of pawshakes, Gwyn and I headed back home and filled Zav in on what’d been discussed. He nodded while he listened. And then the three of us ended up snuggling while watching home improvement shows and looking at virtual tours of other places, taking notes of different features we seemed to like. I did wind up finding a few home-building games on my phone, though... all the time-gating and ads made me want to throw the damn thing out a window after a while; Gwyn managed to stop me by putting on a small show with Zav, making out with our surprised dragon while her tail curled around my leg.
I’m still not sure how, but somehow I wound up with Gwyn and mine’s cum on my muzzle in addition to my usual filling that night. I vaguely remember my partners tag-teaming my foxhood, but with my heat coming up, the pleasure was just getting more and more intense. That Zav had learned... a number of buttons to push, too... I was out like a light and slept in a considerable amount the next morning.
