Got the first chapter to my new story series up, so enjoy ^-^


With an arm full of brown paper bags, a black lab anthro pushed open his front door with his free hand. His modest two-bedroom home's large living room was a wreck. A standing rack of DVDs was toppled over and its contents were scattered around on his white carpet. The couches dark blue pillows were on the floor, a standing lamp in the corner was lying down, and his leather recliner was on its back. The only thing untouched was the blue sofa in the center of the room and an entertainment set covered with receivers and gaming consoles under a large flat screen TV.

The lab would have thought his home was burglarized if there weren't two feral dogs bouncing around. Both of them were brown and white, but one was a border collie and the other was a large Nova Scotia duck tolling retriever. They each had on a dark grey vest with cords attached to covers on their paws and a set of goggles on their faces.

The lab unloaded his groceries just inside of the home and kicked off his paw shaped shoes before shutting his house. Behind his once open door was a roundish looking camera propped on top of a tripod. It was a high tech looking little thing and he was sure he seen the lens moving on it. Further investigation revealed that in all four corners of the living room were these standing cameras. That explained the lamp on the floor. It was knocked down to make room.

"Are you guys shooting a porno here?" He asked the most important creatures of his life. The border collie stopped and trained the camera lens on its goggles at him.

"If 'porno' is a new term for zombies, than yes Archie, we are shooting 'pornos' here." She answered. Archie could almost see her eyes rolling under those goggles.

"We're the only remaining survivors alive Zoe." The duck retriever said to her as he slowly came out from behind the sofa. "And it just so happens that you're a female and I'm a male. So it is up to us to repopulate the entire world."

Zoe shook her head and flicked her goggles up with a gentle motion of her head. Her face was mostly white and her cool blue eyes were looking up at the lab. Seeing them without being blocked by those goggles or locked behind a computer monitor made his heart flutter. Being the primary feral tester for Zombie HQ Gaming made her devote a lot of time to testing and sending feedback to her boss. It pays very well and she even got the duck retriever a gig with testing the games and suits with her. But with the rise of advanced VR so ferals and anthros can finally game together, came the mad dash for which gaming company achieved that first. That started taking up more of Zoe's time now of days than Archie's dull office job did.

"Jax. One, our offspring would have to inbreed to continue populating the world if that's the case. Two, we would be making more food for the undead. And three, there are zeds coming through the double windows." Zoe pointed out to the other feral as she jumped up onto the sofa.

"Shoot!" Jax barked. He bolted over and looked up at the flat screen TV hanging over a small table covered with receivers and gaming consoles.

"Don't need your goggles to know the undead are coming through a wide window?" Archie asked as he took a seat beside her. Zoe scooted up against him and gave her tail a slight wag. Even with all of the gear on, the lab couldn't keep his hands off the cute as a button feral. He wrapped an arm around her and scratched at the exposed fur on the front of her neck.

"ZOE HAS LEFT THE GAME." A female sounding robot said through the living room's surround sound speakers.

"I got good hearing, but the double windows aren't wide. There's a syncing glitch where the game is overlapping a window partially on another window." Zoe said with a sigh. Finding bugs when play testing was a necessity, but she hated telling her boss about the flaws she finds. And she can find flaws faster than a drug sniffing dog finding narcotics. But each flaw puts the company back on their mad pursuit for advanced VR. "I tossed HQ an email detailing what I found in the game. Everything else seems to be running smoothly. Even our suits are running effectively. In a couple of days, they should send me an update for Dreaded Dead and... a prototype anthro VR suit if you want to slaughter zeds with me and mutt?"

"I think that sounds like a blast." Archie said with a smile. He hasn't had the pleasure of playing around with these new getups for gaming. Using old fashioned controllers and games on disks were his preferred means of gaming. But he'll jump at the chance to finally play a game with his partners.

"No no no no no no!" Jax yelped as he began backing up to the front door. He hunkered down when his rump hit the swinging barrier.

"JAX DID NOT SURVIVE. GAME OVER."

"Awww..." He grumbled as he flicked his goggles up and revealed his brown eyes.

"Too many?" Archie asked the duck retriever.

"Yeah..."

"Want to eat?" Both ferals just nodded at the lab. "Eggs and ham sound good?" Again they nodded. "Help me get things put away and we can get our grub on."

"Eww." Zoe said as Archie released her. Some of his phrases were not to her liking. But some of his back home words and phrases made her giggle or the very least wag her tail.

Both ferals stepped over to a couple of mats between the entertainment set and downed lamp. They positioned themselves on four paw shaped markers and seven robotic arms extended up with claws at the end of them. One grabbed onto their goggles and gently pulled them up from their heads while the six other claws went under their bellies and unfastened three buckles, stretch their vests out, and lifted it over them. Their paw covers stayed put on the mat as they stepped back out of them. Several LED lights cycled through colors to indicate that their VR gear is charging up. It all seemed so complicated to the lab, but these will allow them to game much easier.

The fur on Jax and Zoe's head and torsos were flattened down from the extended use in their VR gear. If Archie didn't need to put groceries away and make food, he would love to get hands-on and fluff out their coats. Maybe they can get to that later.


After being handed everything from the brown paper bags with muzzles, Archie tossed half a carton of eggs and some cubed ham into a good-sized skillet. The roundtable in the center of their kitchen could comfortably fit five creatures. More than enough for the three of them. The lab helped his partners get seated before he filled their plates and put their favorite adult beverages in small bowls for them. Zoe liked her grape wine from their town's local orchard and Jax liked the same cider beer the anthro drank.

"Chow down." Archie said to them as he took a seat between the two ferals. It didn't take the duck retriever very long to wolf down his eggs and booze while the border collie and lab slowly sipped and munched away at their supper. Only the sound of smacking jaws filled this silent room. Archie hated all this dead air. Especially after a long day of work and grocery shopping.

"So... besides the glitchy windows, how has everything else been going with the new game?" All this tech and gaming mumbo-jumbo wasn't his fortitude. That was all Zoe's line of work. But talking about the bad movies and TV show he watches as well as his bland job, has to get old fast with his partners. Their lives were far more interesting than his anyhow. So he bit the bullet and tried not to be too confused.

"Like I said earlier, everything is running smoothly." Zoe answered before taking a few laps out of her wine bowl.

"Right..." Archie murmured as he rubbed his head. "Uhm... how exactly will this anthro suit work when it gets here?"

"It's a fair bit more complicated than ours are." Jax spoke up. He also wasn't the most tech savvy, but he was around Zoe all day, so some of her genius was rubbing off on him. "You'll actually have to pick up and aim your gun as well as manually reload, where ours is mounted to our backs and auto reloads."

"Right. You'll also have mechanical tendons in your VR suit's sleeves and gloves that will tighten up when you grab things. When you press a gun stock to your shoulder, the mechanisms that arm will tighten and simulate the feeling of a gun there in real life. Shooting will even cause those mechanisms to rapidly tighten with each shot."

"That sounds like it will be really interesting, but really cool." Archie said to the border collie. Her tail wagged behind the chair from the gap it was poking through. "So am I getting paid for this?"

"The suit you're getting is a prototype, but once testing is done, we'll send it back and they'll ship us a brand-new one. And any bonuses I gets will go towards bills and food so you can use your money you make with your job on those old films you are so fond of." Zoe said with a grin. That suit does sound valuable and he does enjoy his old movies.

"Hey. I like my DVDs." Archie said back to the smug border collie.

"Streaming is better and easier." Jax added in.

"Your guy's fancy digital copies of movies will never beat my hard copies." The lab pointed out to the duck retriever. The feral just shook his head. "Speaking of my terrible taste and shows." Archie said looking back at Zoe. Laughing at himself was easier than sounding like a grey muzzle. "Do you want to wind down to a cheesy romance?"

"I guess." She answered before lapping out what wine she had left. Her enthusiasm was quite underwhelming.

"Jax could you kindly go pick up the front room while we finish up?"

"Sure." The duck retriever answered before leaving the table. When the pair in the kitchen finished eating, they both went into the living room. Jax got everything except the recliner, but that was an easy fix for Archie. With everything back where it belongs, the lab switched their flat screen TV on and tuned it to the romance channel.

Currently on was a movie that he swore he'd seen nearly hundred times. Feral Hands. It was a fairly long tale about a tiger anthro and a feral lynx falling for one another. The first half of the film was them dealing with the fallout of their controversial relationship since it was set way back about fifty years. When the couple finally achieved social acceptance in their community, their next challenge was adopting a cub to complete their dream family. They had to fight tooth and claw with the adoption agency to prove that the lynx could care for the baby anthro. When they were rejected on grounds that a feral couldn't do what an anthro could for their type of young, the couple spent a lot of sleepless nights developing tools that made it possible for the lynx to do simple tasks and more complicated ones like its mate normally did. These new tools allowed the feral to look out for the anthro cub without the tiger present and they were awarded the right to adopt.

The couple this movie was based off of have long since passed on, but their company Feral Hands still lives on. It became a household name and Archie's home even has quite a few their products set up and wired throughout his home for Zoe and Jax. If it weren't for that brave couple and their company, the lab would have to have an at home job so he could help care for his partners. He would be all right with that, but Zoe's independent personality would highly conflict with that. Jax however wouldn't mind. Having Archie around was one of his favorite things.

"She's out..." Jax whispered from the sofa over to the lab spacing off in his recliner. It was about half an hour into the movie and Zoe was using the duck retriever as a pillow. It was dark out now, but it was still technically early in the evening.

"If she was tired, she should have said so and went to bed." Archie grumbled as he stood up.

"I don't think she even knows she's tired sometimes..." Jax pointed out to the lab. "What are you doing?"

"I'm going to put her to bed and we're going to camp out here for tonight." Archie answered as he gently scooped up the border collie. Slowly and carefully like he was balancing a biscuit across his muzzle, he made it to their bedroom door with her. As usual it was shut. So he tapped a button on the door about a foot above the floor with his paw. Quietly the bedroom opened up for him.

Their bedroom was a simple set up. There was a king-sized bed with grey sheets covering it, nightstands on both sides of its headboard, a dresser in front of their bed, grey curtains blocking the only window there, and a door to their closet. A few paintings of abstract art covered their white walls. Jax, for whatever reason liked that kind of stuff. Some of the paintings around their house were even done by him back in the day. On the dresser was a good-sized photo of them. It was professionally done at the local Park and Archie was nicely dressed and sitting on a wooden bench in between the best things in his life.

"There you go girl..." Archie whispered to Zoe as he gently lowered her onto their bed. She flexed her toes a bit, but settled into the grey sheets. With sleeping beauty put down, the lab exited the room and shut the door before grabbing some sheets from his hallway's closet on his way back to the living room.

"She still out?" Jax asked the lab when he dropped the sheets down beside him. Archie just nodded. "I'm not surprised. She was up hours before we were getting her VR stuff all set up and scanning every inch of the living room. Running nonstop like that drains her batteries pretty quickly."

Archie nodded again. "We should do something nice for her tomorrow. Like breakfast in bed or something."

"Breakfast in bed sounds good. But what do I get?" Jax asked with a smile.

"What do you want?" The lab asked. Jax just sat up and opened his legs before giving his sheath a stroke with his paw. That was a hard to miss hint. Archie didn't object and peeled off his clothes quickly, tossed them across the room, and got on his knees in front of his stud. Without missing a beat, he pushed his wide lab muzzle through Jax's front legs and lapped away at his tightening sheath. Each stroke from Archie's eager licker coaxed out his doghood from its hiding place. When his bright red tip was fully exposed, Jax un-tensed his legs and let Archie have full access.

"Yesssssssss..." He hummed to himself when his tip was hit a few times. Spending so much time with the duck retriever when Zoe was busy gave the lab plenty of experience and what he liked. A quick tease followed by diving all in was the quickest way to get him to blow his load. And a quickie sounded good to him since he had other things he wanted to do to the feral on his mind.

With a few more flicks with his wide tongue, a paw on the top of his head told him it was time to speed things up. Archie reached around the panting duck retriever's front legs and tugged his sheath down passed his puffed up knot. He was all the labs' now especially since his guard is down. A pleasant huff escape Jax's muzzle when Archie took him all in. At this moment his doghood fit nicely in his mate's mouth, but soon the duck retriever will swell big enough to tickle the back of his throat.

"That's it!" Jax whined as he raised his other paw to the lab's shoulder. Archie put both of his hands on his feral's back for better leverage as he rocked his head back and forth. The very clearly pent up duck retriever grunted and huffed with every motion under him. Normally Jax would be up and pounding Archie's face like he has done so many times with both of his mates, but it seemed like he was holding back this time. Or trying to at least. His blunt claws didn't really hurt, but the way he was digging them in sure would if they were unkept. It was a wise decision to invest in that automatic claw trimmer.

The constant head bobbing and tongue whirling quickly made the duck retriever's cock grow to its full size. Archie needed to apply substantial pressure to hold the wiggling dog down now. The thick knot bumped the end of the lab's snout with each press forward with his muzzle. Above him, Jax sounded like he was trying to send a message to the lord, but only got to "oh god" before starting it over. His legs resting on Archie's shoulders began to shake and move when the feral started to growl.

Jax quickly put both of his paws on the back of his mate's head and pulled him into his fully swollen up cock. There was a lot of meat there, but the lab took it all in. The knot just made it inside of his teeth cave and its large lobes were sticking out of both sides of his chops. With a few heavy pulses and twitches from the dog dick, a low woof echoed through the living room before liquid heat splashed the back of Archie's throat. His mate loosened his grip on the lab's head and winded down to pants again as his long orgasm started. When the brunt of his seed washed down his throat, Archie slid his head back far enough to pull the cock out of his mouth and plopped it down onto the bridge of his muzzle.

"Having fun?" Jax panted down at the lab with his paws on his shoulders now. Archie just smiled as the cock on his muzzle twitched and painted it white. Any runoff was swiftly swooped up by his wide tongue before it could drip onto the sofa. When his tapered toy stopped pulsing out its thick cum, the lab gave its tip a kiss before pulling away from it. "You got stuff on your snout."

"So I do." He said face to face with his mate. Jax smiled and went to work cleaning up the mess he caused. When the duck retriever cleaned his way down to the front of the lab's muzzle, Archie pushed their snouts together. He slowly ran his hands up the feral's back as Jax reclaimed some of his lost fluids from the lab's mouth. Archie did his best to catch his mate's tongue and get tangled up in it while their muzzles embraced.

"Get it all out?" Archie asked him when he pulled away for some air.

"Mostly..." The duck retriever winked as he set his paws back down onto the sofa. "I wouldn't be so wound up if Zoe wasn't in heat."

"She's in season?"

"Yeah. You two are so busy lately that either of you barely noticed. I have to be around her all day, so it starts to get to me." Jax answered. The first half of what he said stung the lab. He's barely spent any time with them lately. His work kept him away for most of the day and Zoe has been going hardcore with her work the past month and was usually still working when he got home. He really should have pulled those goggles off of her head and spend some time with her. But he neglected both of them and what Jax and he just did was the most interaction he has had with either of them these last few weeks.

"You think she'll set down her VR gear long enough to hang out tomorrow?" Archie asked now doubting their breakfast in bed idea. The border collie was more of a quick breakfast out of the box and a few sprints around the block, kind of dog.

"Probably for a little while."

"Let's hope so." The lab whined as he stood up. Worrying about something that was a night away wasn't fun, so he needed Jax's help to keep it out of his head. At least for a little bit. "You know, now that you got what you wanted, how about I get something I want?"

"And what might that be?" The duck retriever asked with a head tilt. Archie just motioned a circle with his finger. Jax happily spun around and put his front paws on the back of the sofa with a constant tail wag while the lab grabbed a tiny bottle of lube from a drawer in his console stand. When he turned back around, the duck retriever was looking back at him with a wink and a wag of his rump. Seeing that put a tightening in his sheath and nearly made him rush over to the dog. He almost missed putting a few drops on his finger pad and rubbed them under the lifted tail in front of him. With Jax a little lubed up, the lab pulled his sheath back and smeared several drops along his aroused length. Now that they were both slickened up, all that was left was to slide in.

Archie placed both hands on his mate's toned hips and began to pant with anticipation as his tip slowly pushed into the feral. Heat engulfed his doghood and his head started to spin from the sensation. It has been more than a few weeks since he got penetrate one of his mates. This long overdue 'interaction' made him have to tighten his grip on his pincushion. Jax tilted his muzzle up and began lapping at his nose when Archie bottomed out in him. The fit was quite pleasant, but being locked inside of him was the goal.

The lab gently pulled out until the tapered tip of his cock was held in place by Jax's tailhole. With one last check that he had good footing and a tight grip on his mate, Archie pushed forward with far more force than before. The duck retriever rolled back into him when he bucked forward and both canines pulled back for the next round. Each thrust into that tight tailhole made his cock swell rapidly and a pleasant pressure build up and radiate through his body. His paws dug into the carpet as his thrusts got harder. When the rocking got faster, something swung back and struck the lab's thighs several times. The culprit was Jax's fully swollen doghood. Archie gave his muzzle a lick as he slipped a hand down and caught the swinging organ and stroked it in unison with his gentle thrusts.

"Oh god! That's the stuff!" Jax nearly barked at the ceiling from what the helping hand was doing to him. He finally got his message passed 'oh god.'

Slow and steady was Archie's motto when it came to lovemaking. Plowing forward like a wild animal was great every once in a while and one of Zoe's favorite means of mating, but the tender and loving approach lasted longer. And longer time spent with his mates felt much better.

"Do you like that?" Archie leaned in and whispered into Jax's ear as he gripped the feral's shaft and rubbed his tip with a thumb pad. The cock in his palm was back to twitching and pulsing with life.

"Yes!" The duck retriever moaned as he slid back into his lover.

"Do you want more of it?"

"Please!" Jax whined, but when he tried to move, Archie held him in place. A whimper escaped the feral after seconds of no movement have passed. Being all lovie-dovie was wonderful, but getting to tease the dog was the cheery on top of the cake.

The lab smiled as he nosed under his mate ear. "Then you're going to have to bark for it..." He whispered.

Jax raised his muzzle straight up and let out a few barks. When he was about to let out a third bark, Archie wrapped an arm around his chest and thrusted forward. A loud yip came from Jax when his semi hard knot slid in. The extra effort he needed to use to get it in nearly pushed the duck retriever over the back of the sofa. A long pleading whine came from his mate when he tugged his knot free. Jax was about to pop again and Archie could feel himself getting close too. They both needed his knot holding them together, but the lab got a better idea about how to get that done.

"What are you doing?" Jax whined when he pulled all of the way out of him. Archie just remained quiet as he tossed his sheets by the recliner and sat in it himself. He lifted the lazy boy's legs and leaned back as he padded his lap on the opposite side where his mostly hard cock was lying.

"Changing positions." He finally said to his baffled mate. Jax leapt from the sofa and climbed up over the lab. Archie angled himself up as his mate placed his paws on his chest and gently lowered himself down. Again the feral began licking his nose as the lab's fattening cock slipped back in. Now it was Jax's turn to do most of the work and he had to grind down onto his partner's knot a bit before it popped into him.

"This is going to be quick." The duck retriever panted as he lifted back up. The lab put a hand on his back to help with every motion and used his other hand to stroke at his mate's doghood again. When Archie's growing knot came out, Jax immediately sat back down onto it. Moans and pants echoed over the flat screen TV while both canines worked their lover up to their peak. Archie got lost in a sea of brown fur and the sensation of a tightening and clinching tailhole. So lost in the pleasures surrounding him that it took a heavy grunt above him to realize that all of the pleasures weren't completely surrounding him.

Jax's had popped his knot out again but was struggling to get the double gland ball of flesh back in. Archie released his doghood and put both hands on his back before bucking up into the feral. That thrust was enough to make Jax let out a yelp as he fell flush with the canine below him. Pressure from the tight walls of his mate and from his climax nearing made the lab lean forward and grip at Jax's loose skin.

"That's it Archie!" The feral barked in ecstasy as he pulled forward so the lab's knot was tugging tightly against his tailhole. Jax dug his claws into his mate's chest before his cock began twitching and blowing its second load for the day. With a gasp, Archie closed his eyes tightly and curled his toes as he felt all of that pressure built up in him release. The first few shots made him try to rock his hips up into his mate, but as the intense pleasure of release died down to something more manageable, both canines relaxed. Jax's load wasn't as big as it was when he first went off, but when his cock finally stopped spraying its seed, Archie's chest still got soaked. The lab's own doghood held firm and filled the feral to the point that he could feel a slow leak rolling down his black furred testis.

"You're going to need a shower before we make Zoe breakfast." Jax pointed out with a worn out smile across his muzzle before settling down on the canine under him. Lying in the pool he left on Archie's chest didn't keep him any cleaner, but it was sharing the love.

"You'll need one too after all of this." The lab panted as he grabbed one of their sheets from the floor. "Let's get some rest. We got an early day tomorrow."

With a quick flick, he covered them both and wrapped his arms around Jax from under the sheets and smushed their snouts together.
