Dating a Direwolf: Part 1
Story by CaptainDood122 on SoFurry
A man and his Dire Wolf partner learn something that will change their relationship and lives forever. (She gets bigger and that's not necessarily a good thing) ~5,900 words
The radiant glare of the sun on Kiva's sandy white fur was hot enough to make her overheat. Slowing down her run to a quick-paced walk, the large Wolf woman clasped her hands behind her head and began to pant. Sometimes she wished that she could sweat like a horse or human, it would make her exercises much easier. Although she heard humans complain about sweating whenever it was brought up, they didn't even have sharp enough noses to smell it from a distance. As she bounced down the cracked sidewalk her sensitive ears were accosted by the sounds of a busy urban neighborhood. Engines roared down the street on her right, a conversation could be heard beyond the vibrant tree line blocking the rows of houses on her left, and in front of her the sound of footsteps vibrated ever closer.
Rotating her piercing red eyes towards the sound, Kiva observed a brown-furred mouse woman in a lightly colored sundress walking toward her. Once they got close enough to potentially make contact, the demure mouse made a hasty turn and stepped off the sidewalk to avoid coming near the much larger Wolf. Kiva attempted to follow the woman's movement, but she hurried under the Wolf and was obscured by a landscape of cleavage that hid everything below her. Based on what little visual she got, the shorter woman must have only come up to her waist at most. This didn't surprise Kiva considering she had spent most of her life towering over her peers.
Once the mouse believed she was out of earshot, she muttered under her breath “Damn wolves think they own the sidewalk".
“Dire Wolf" Kiva corrected mentally.
The petty barb also did not surprise Kiva. Dire Wolves were thought to be extinct for a very long time. It was not until explorers first landed in the “New World" that they discovered her “long lost species" again before conquering the continent and absorbing their culture. Kiva did not feel resentment for that bit of historical trivia as it was too far in the past for it to have any personal meaning. She did, however, feel resentment for the people like that mouse who treated her poorly for things that were out of her control.
But she wouldn't let them get to her today. Today was a special day for the Amazonian woman. Today was the day she promised herself she would celebrate every single year for the rest of her life. Making her way past the moving gate of her apartment complex, Kiva let her hands fall to her sides and moved at a slower, more casual stroll towards her building.
“It's funny" she mused, approaching the stone stairs of the outdoor apartment block, “the only person brave enough to be with me was a small and vulnerable human with too much curiosity."
She had always thought that the only species brave enough to be with her would be some kind of giant predator like herself. An elephant, lion, tiger, or bear (oh my!) with the strength to match hers. “The only other person" she concluded, “would be a macro of any species. They wouldn't have much to be afraid of if they were at least four times larger than me."
With almost no effort she skipped up the stairs two at a time until she reached the second floor and stopped at the second door on her left. Grabbing the doorknob with her large, clawed hand, she entered the cozy apartment with the full intention of savoring her prey.
Vinny's stomach felt like it was trying to take control of his body. Even on the comfortable and cool black leather of his couch, his stomach would not stop doing its best impression of a very enthusiastic earthquake. “It's funny" he mused, "I could have dated that ferret girl back in freshman year and avoided all of this". Then again, I hear they're even more sex-crazed than wolves so maybe I made the right choice."
Trembling fingers ran through locks of dark hair as Vinny attempted to scratch his head. He knew that his girlfriend of two years was not going to hurt him on purpose, but when she left the building promising him a “very special surprise" when she got back, he knew she was probably going to jump his bones. The agitated man ran his hand down to his neck and felt the impression of scars from a previous encounter with the beast.
“She was so upset when she scratched me back then. I hope she isn't doesn't think about it every time she sees me."
Old wounds aside, he really didn't mind her enthusiasm in bed when the rest of her was so very worth it. Kiva was basically the perfect partner for him. They shared the same interests, had the same ambitions for their future, and when it didn't leave scars their intimate moments were exquisite. She was really enthusiastic though! As if she was trying to make up for years of no physical contact with others. It's just that…
"The spirit is willing, but the flesh is spongy and bruised." He quoted out loud to himself, eliciting a light chuckle afterward.
Vinny took in the room he was occupying. The apartment was clearly designed to accommodate a multitude of species of varying sizes yet ended up helping none of them. The ceiling was ten feet tall with doorframes that barely edged below that. The doors had two sets of handles, one directly in the middle between the floor and ceiling, and another smaller one much lower to the ground. Drawers could be used as optional stepladders to reach the uncomfortably high countertops in the kitchen, and metal struts holding up the wall-mounted cabinets could no doubt be used as a ladder by the smallest species. These weren't necessary for Vinny, but the countertops were above his shoulders and he needed help from his much larger girlfriend to get anything from the highest cabinets.
A token effort had been made by the current residents to decorate their living space. Personal photos and discount furniture store art were strategically hung on the walls to avoid leaving undecorated space. One such painting was a brightly colored exhibition of flowers that hung right above a television. Upon recognizing the television, Vinny tuned his senses to the information it presented to him. A sharp raccoon woman in a hard-edged red suit jacket was presenting the local news. She began to shuffle some papers on her desk as she looked up to the camera.
“The results of this year's census have just been released and the results may surprise you. Data shows that just over 40% of the country's population is human, while the other 60% is composed of multiple anthro species. The majority species vary wildly by state, but here in New York, the data is skewed towards rodents at a whopping 21% of the total population. Next are the canines at 10%, and the felines trailing behind by 8%." The plastic smile and natural mask coloring made her look good on television even while she was reciting dry statistics.
The numbers didn't surprise Vinny all that much. They were almost the same as the one from ten years ago. People always seemed so surprised to learn that mice and rats bred so dang fast, not realizing that it's one of the reasons they have survived this long in the first place. This has led to a sort of cultural stigma that they may be considered one of the more “expendable" species. Expendable, unless you counted humans.
Vinny didn't really believe that any species should be considered expendable. That just seemed heartlessly cruel. But tensions between species had always been difficult considering the world's history. In his opinion, the difference between a progressive and regressive nation was whether or not they accepted different species as troops to march over. It was pretty common for a nation to keep the same ideals over the years but completely change the majority species.
“In other news, scientists have discovered an upward trend in the number of macro cases around the world. The recent census has shown us that the number of macros nationwide has reached over 100. That's two for every state, and over 50% more than there were 20 years ago."
Now that did surprise Vinny. Was it because there were more people in the world? The population had been steadily increasing for a long time, and people now live much longer. Looking up at the popcorn textured ceiling, the man thought of the implications. “But where are we gonna get all the space and resources to support these people? Especially if they're all so huge?"
From his supine position on the couch, Vinny's thoughts were interrupted by the loud rattling of a heavy doorknob being twisted. Suddenly the front door was thrown open and the dim living room was bathed in blinding rays of sunlight. A considerable silhouette stepped inside and closed the door behind it. After a few moments, Vinny's eyes slowly adjusted back to the shadowy interior and revealed the figure in front of him.
“You didn't even get off the couch?" spoke the massive Dire Wolf in a deep yet feminine voice from across the room. “I thought you would have hopped into bed and waited for me."
Kiva began to saunter over to him with a sway in her immense hips. The thin fabric of her leggings strained against thighs that were wider around than his entire torso. On reflex, he quickly sat up and scrambled off the couch to his feet. Standing in front of her he got a sense of the scale between the two of them. Looking ahead Vinny observed her heavily toned stomach, the faint definition of her abs showing through her layers of fur. Moving his eyes up, he was about to make a clever comeback until he noticed something about her outfit. “There's no way she didn't do this on purpose. That bra doesn't even cover the underside of her boobs. It probably shows off everything above too."
At least he assumed she had cleavage above. From his perspective, Vinny could only see the fabled "underboob". It seemed uncomfortably small on her. Was she wearing this for him? Kiva seemed to notice his ogling and bent down until their faces were inches apart. “Today is a special day, remember?" She emphasized the final word by crossing her arms across her chest and squeezing until her breasts practically bulged out of the top of her garment.
Vinny at this point was practically sputtering with anxiety and turned his head away from the predator. In an attempt to get something coherent from his brain to his mouth, he began to cite long-forgotten trivia that had loosed its way to the front of his thoughts. "I-it's Australia Day, right?"
“Vincent," the name was dropped with such weight it drew his eyes up to hers immediately “two years ago today you and I created a permanent bond that I knew would last forever. You immediately agreed to move in with me and showed no hesitation in private or in public." Her eyes seemed to soften at this declaration and her normally sharp, predatory face seemed so very vulnerable.
And suddenly Vinny felt a pang of guilt for forgetting. He had been coasting through life for the past couple of years just hoping to find a stable job and home he could waste away in. He didn't realize at the time how much Kiva relied on him for physical and emotional support. His eyes trailed down toward the floor until his chin was suddenly lifted by a generous clawed hand, once again forcing his gaze on the beast's red orbs.
Moving her hand up to his head she began to gently caress his hair. She leaned forward and whispered into his ear “Don't feel bad about forgetting, I'll always remember for you. Besides, you can make it up to me starting now. Wolves mate for life after all, and dire wolves are no different."
Before Vinny could react, she lifted him by the armpits like a toddler and threw him over her shoulder like an Amazon warrior claiming her prize. The world seemed to temporarily spin as Kiva strode across the room towards their bedroom. From his perspective, Vinny got to look down her back and witness the long fluffy tail swaying in rhythm with the movement of her hips. The base of her tail started below the small of her back and made it so her leggings could only be pulled up so far. Her enormous glutes pushed the thin material out almost as far as her thighs did, and he found the movement of all of it very hypnotic.
Kiva ambled past the doorway and without looking casually closed the door using one foot. The bedroom was even more sparsely decorated than the living room, bearing only a dresser and a bed that took up half the width of the entire room. Dusty trophies from long-forgotten high school sports games sat upon the dresser.
Suddenly without warning, Vinny felt his world speed up as he was thrown across the room. Luckily, he landed on their Alaskan King-sized bed (A purchase he would never regret) but the momentum from the landing shifted the bed quickly into the wall with a loud crash. "No wonder our neighbors hate us" his head managed to conjure in its adrenaline-induced haze.
Twisting onto his back, Vinny got a better view of his partner. Kiva was already peeling off her exercise bra and freeing her massive twin orbs from their unjust prison. Fat, erect nipples the size of his thumb greeted his vision as she lifted the top over her head. Gravity took hold of them and they bounced momentarily before coming to rest on her chest so perfectly as if to say "See? God is real and He sent these to you!"
Religious epiphany aside, the couple both looked down while Kiva attempted to pull the leggings off but seemed to struggle once she reached her thighs. After a moment of struggling with the fabric, there was a small ripping sound as they were abruptly yanked down her legs to the surprise of both parties. Under her breath, Kiva swore, "Come on I bought these a week ago! I swear these were stretchier yesterday".
After shaking the last of her garments off, she turned her attention back to her prey and gave him a hungry look. She began to crawl over the bed at a sedate pace, taking her time, knowing full well her little human had nowhere to run or hide from her. Soon she was directly over him and staring into his eyes with all the menace she could afford.
Turning toward the bed, the She-Wolf gave him an impatient look. “Now it's your turn."
After a moment, Vinny caught her meaning and hastily began fiddling with the button on his jeans. He unzipped his pants and started to slide them down his legs. Halfway to his knees, Kiva leaned forward and pulled them toward her with excessive force. The clothing caught on his ankles and he found himself lifted practically upside down and violently shaken. The pants and underwear finally fell off and were cast onto the floor with little care.
Flopping back down on the bed, Vinny scrambled back to the far end in an attempt to make distance between himself and the crazed demon. Kiva calmly lifted one knee on top of the bed, then crawled forward with the other. Getting down on all fours, she moved at a deliberate pace toward her cowering prey. Her ample chest rolled over Vinny's hips, the pendulous weight, and textured fur creating friction on his legs as she moved closer to her target. Her stiff nipples made a trail up his legs and past his hips until their faces were inches apart.
The Wolf began assaulting the man with her mouth and tongue, warm saliva began coating his face as she worked her way towards his neck. Kiva began to caress his neck with her mouth, eliciting a short gasp of surprise. Quickly sitting up, she slid forward until the couple's groins were in the same position and used her hand to position Vinny's erect member under her leaking entrance. With little ceremony, the imposing woman dropped her weight and engulfed her victim in one swift movement.
A powerful rumble escaped her lips and practically shook Vinny to his core. Two mighty hands grabbed his arms and spread them apart onto the bed. Pinned on his back, he futilely struggled against the iron grip of his captor who was already lifting herself for a second assault. Once she reached his tip, Kiva slammed her hips down and let out another rumbling moan that practically shook the bed on its own.
Quickening her pace, the Dire Wolf let go of his arms and shifted her weight onto her elbows. This gave Vinny a face-full of her monumental breasts and the freedom to use his arms again. Feeling dangerous, he grabbed her mammoth bosom with both hands and played with them like two big stress toys. The moaning from above was incentive enough to continue rubbing and twisting her chest with more force. Vinny focused his attention on her fat nipples by grabbing them between his fingers and pulling as if trying to coax milk out of them.
Kiva rewarded him by hastening her thrusts and slamming into him with more reckless abandon. The connection between them was getting positively soaked as she spilled her liquids all over him, making the sound of their love an audible slapping sound. With the courage of a desperate man, Vinny angled one of her breasts down towards his face and shoved a massive udder into his mouth. He began to play with the massive surface area using only his tongue, sucking and swirling around the thumb-sized protrusion. Kiva bucked into him faster and began to release another deep growl from her body which made him feel like he was dropping down a steep and rickety rollercoaster. Then he pinched her nipple between his teeth and she practically let out a scream as she slammed into his hips faster.
Kiva grabbed his head and pulled him between her breasts, cutting off his vision. Although he could still hear the wet slap slap slap of their lovemaking that got faster and faster, and he felt the mass of his lover as she used him as a living toy for her pleasure. With nothing else to grab onto, he wrapped his arms around the beast ravaging him. He felt the strength in her back as taut muscles flexed in rhythm with her plunging hips. Breathing in her scent, suffocating between her gargantuan tits, he suddenly felt himself reach a breaking point and his whole body shook. Energy raced through his nerves as his groin lit up and he climaxed violently inside of her. At the same moment, Kiva's entrance began to shift as she also reached orgasm and convulsed on top of him.
The two of them slowly fell into a more relaxed position and Vinny felt his muscles ache as hindsight caught up with him and he felt the full extent of the pounding. Kiva slowly sat up and began to gyrate on top of him, somehow coaxing an erection out of him even after the marathon they ran.
"You didn't think it would be that easy, did you?" She challenged. "We're not done here until I say we are."
She grabbed Vinny by the shoulders and tumbled onto her back with him nestled between her chest again, but this time they were looking right at each other. She lined up her entrance with his cock and pulled him in.
"I hope you aren't doing anything physical tomorrow!" She taunted.
"I knew it. I'm gonna die here."
The next morning Vinny awoke to two sensations: A massive heat source that was surrounding him in a large hug and the muscles in his body that were currently screaming at him for daring to commit such horrific acts. While he didn't appreciate the second feeling, he was more content and familiar with the first. Kiva being the big spoon was practically a law in their home.
After an unspecified amount of time, the couple seemed to realize they were both awake and finally got up to start the day. Kiva shifted her weight off the bed and Vinny was practically launched upward by the recoil of the bed springs. Pushing himself up he looked up and saw Kiva sitting on the end of the bed, her ass leaving a massive deformation in the mattress. She picked up a wrinkled bra off the floor and began to slip it over her head. When it reached her chest, Vinny got to watch her struggle to fit it past her heavy endowments. "Damn thing!" She exclaimed. "I just bought this last week, why won't it fit!"
The befuddled man stood up and paced over to his toiling lover, attempting to comfort her with a pat on the shoulder. Before he could reach out to Kiva, she stood up to her full height and hit her head on the ceiling with an audible thump. Bending her knees, the Wolf looked up in confusion and then down at the equally baffled man below.
"That's funny," he thought "between that and the bra not fitting it's almost like...
Vinny pointed at her head. “Isn't that ceiling ten feet high?"
Suddenly a more terrifying question entered his brain and escaped his lips. “How late can the macro gene activate in someone?"
The question left them both silent while they contemplated it. Kiva quickly stepped across the room in one full stride, ripped the door open, then ducked under the doorframe into the living room. Vinny hastily broke into a run to catch up with her and got out in time to witness the behemoth flop onto the now comically small couch. The Wolf put her face into her hands and went completely still.
Rushing to her side, Vinny grabbed her arm. “Listen, hey, don't… This isn't the end of the world, alright?" He shook her arm trying to get her attention. “The governments got programs for this, remember? We'll call someone and make sure they'll take care of you. We don't even know how big you're gonna get. You could just double in height, or this could be it!"
Kiva lifted her head from her hands, revealing a tear-stained face. Vinny had only seen her cry like this once before: The first time they met. “I'm just gonna be another freak to them," she whimpered “another monster to put in an exhibit. The only thing they didn't have before was an excuse and now they've got it!"
Vinny climbed onto the couch and straddled her now gargantuan leg. “Those people don't matter." He grabbed her hands and moved them so they would surround his face. “You've got a whole life ahead of you and this is just another challenge you have to overcome."
"But" she shifted her weight back and allowed him to fall face-first into her bare chest "what if they try to lock me up or hurt me?"
Vinny pushed up and attempted to wrap his arms around her neck, barely managing to lock his fingers behind her head.
"Well, then I'll just have to beat them up with my superior strength. I am the man of the house after all."
This was clearly not the response she was expecting considering the dumbfounded look that took over her features.
“Then you'll stay with me even if I become a monster?"
“Remember what you said? Wolves mate for life, and dire wolves are no different. Oh, and monster? That's a bit much. I think the only thing monstrous about you is your huge ass."
Kiva was now done with her tears and wiped them with one arm. “I recall last night you enjoyed my monstrous ass quite a lot. I think you want to see it get bigger you pervert."
Vinny was practically blushing at the thought of last night and the promise of more to come. But then he began to think about the logistical nightmare that would be their future. First, he needed to call someone. Either a doctor or a government agent of some kind. Then he needed to get Kiva large enough clothes to walk around in public. On their budget, a full outfit in that size might be too much but a swimsuit could make up for it in a pinch. It was still early spring after all.
Perhaps offended by his concerned look, Kiva wrapped one arm around his entire torso and wholesale lifted him like a large doll. “You can do whatever you're thinking about after another round or two. If I'm gonna turn giant I wanna feel you at this size before I lose it forever."
Rounding into the kitchen, Kiva still had to stay hunched over to avoid scraping the ceiling with her head and her toy-boyfriend. She got on her knees and opened the refrigerator door, a harsh buzzing noise escaping with artificial yellowed light. She hastily grabbed at something and pulled it out with her one free arm. Closing the door with a nudge of her hips, she then carefully lifted herself to her hunch and ambled around the counter back to the bedroom.
Vinny noticed the large container of orange juice in her hands and went to comment. “We can't stop and have breakfast at least?"
“Of course not. That's what this is for. You drink as much as you can, and I'll drink the rest. That should be enough for three rounds or so."
Vinny's face visually cringed at this suggestion. He still hurt from last night and had a day of chores thanks to this disaster. Deep down he wondered if he were setting some kind of record for his species and if maybe he would ascend to Valhalla after "dying in combat".
Behind a large American Foursquare-style building surrounded by a tall black metal security fence, there is a rather large outdoor swimming pool. Encircling the cerulean oasis are lounge chairs arranged around small tables for the convenience of guests. The chairs are rather large for the average creature, but the tables are almost comically small standing next to them.
Vinny noted to himself that this was probably another attempt by the landlords to advertise how “multi-species friendly" they are. A cheap marketing tactic that will only end in someone being disappointed in the size of their amenities. Umbrella-covered tables were also strewn about the grounds with only two variations in size available to residents. Once again Vinny found both options to be uncomfortable.
Suddenly aware of the sizzling beige tiles under his feet, he made a quick jaunt under one of the oversized umbrellas to secure safety from the oppressive sun. Placing down his beach towel on the table, Vinny jumped into one of the comically large mesh chairs, closed his eyes, and began to collect his thoughts. The past two days had been very stressful for the couple. After learning that Kiva was going to continue growing, they had to make calls to dozens of places around the country. First, it was their doctor's office to explain the situation, then the doctor forwarded them to the closest hospital in the city, then the hospital staff sent an ambulance with special electronic machines to do an on-site DNA test on her.
After confirming the results on-site, the medic called a government contact, and they were told a group of agents would meet them in two more days to move Kiva to a temporary location outside of any major metropolis. This was not exactly what either of them wanted to hear, but the laws for macros were so hastily written that anything seen as “hostile action" was basically asking for the local military to blow her up with a tank.
“Relaxing already without me, love?" came a deep voice from above.
Opening his eyes and glancing up, Vinny was sure she would have blocked the sun as well as the umbrella. The Dire Wolf was sporting the white bikini he bought for her yesterday. He had to find one of the largest sizes in the “Big and Tall Anthro" section of the clothing store. The kind of thing meant for a Giraffe or Elephant who was born with a very gifted set of curves. The bottoms alone were big enough that he could have wrapped up in it like a blanket or used it like a hammock…
And it already looked tight on her. The strings that swooped over her hips were digging into her flesh and the bra was already squishing her breasts the same way her last bra had. “Going to stare all day? That's fine. But I was hoping you would swim with me a little."
Twisting her body around, Kiva took three large steps and reached the edge of the pool. She lifted her foot and dangled it over the water as if to test the temperature, then took a full step in. Vinny fell out of the sizable chair and followed in the giant's footsteps toward the edge of the pool. He looked at the measurements painted on the sides above the waterline. 5' 0" he observed. Then he looked at the giant, and the water ended just below her groin.
A pair of vast hands grabbed the stunned man and lifted him until he was eye level with their owner. The pointed claws on their digits extended past his chest and pointed dangerously at his neck. Sharp red eyes glared a hole through his head. “Not much use in a pool that I can't swim in." The deep voice of his partner rang out.
“Yeah, I can kinda see why that bear couple in our building never came here…" Vinny's voice trailed off as Kiva gave him a more serious look. Her grip around his torso noticeably tightened.
“I know you're worried about my future. About our future." Kiva turned her head away from him. “But I want you to know that no size will stop me from trying to make this work. I could be a mile high and I would still try and love you."
Vinny was dumbfounded at her declaration. “I never thought for a second you would give up on us. Is that what you're worried about? You know we'll stick together no matter what, right?"
The budding macro faced her partner and quirked her lips upward into a small grin. “Of course, I just… Well, never mind that. I didn't really bring you here to swim after all." Punctuating this statement, the Dire Wolf's grin split wide into a salacious smile that implied much.
Lifting the man with one hand until his crotch was level with her face, the giant used her other hand to rip his swimming trunks off in a single motion. Vinny felt the cold caress of the afternoon wind on his bare skin and then felt the heat from the sun reflecting off his rather pale butt. Luckily, the giant hands shifted under him and acted like a warm, furry seat. Kiva dove face-first into his crotch and began to attack it with her tongue.
Vinny was familiar with her tongue thanks to many sleepless nights. Today was an entirely different experience. Her organ had literally doubled in size and length thanks to her recent growth. The slippery appendage went up and down, side to side, and moved into every nook and cranny of his lower body. It felt like Vinny was humping against an incredibly large and slimy tentacle. He leaned forward and fell headfirst into her face, putting all his weight on her nose and giving in to his desire.
Kiva continued to assault the man's lap for a time, then she pulled him out of her mouth and appraised his erection. “Very good. Now you're ready".
Before he could respond, gravity asserted itself and Vinny fell toward the Earth. Stopping just above the water, Kiva used her free hand to pull open her cramped bikini bottom and hovered him over the opening. Carefully lowering him toward her soaking entrance, Kiva managed to trap him between her engorged lips and tight apparel. The giantess let her bottom snap closed and supported him with one of her sizable paws.
After some adjustments, Kiva began to gyrate her hips back and forth and rub him across her fuzzy mound. Vinny grabbed onto her vast hips and could barely keep a grip around them thanks to their immense width. The splashing of the waves created by her movement was not enough to silence their groans of pleasure. Thanks to his early experience with her mouth, Vinny already felt like he was about to explode inside of her.
The Wolf noticed his intense noises and stammered out a response. “K-keep making noises dear. If this is the last time the neighbors are going to see us, I want them to know what we did every single week. I want them to see what I can do to you that no other woman can."
The pace picked up until Kiva was practically using him like an oversized sex toy. Even though they had not fully entered the pool water, Vinny and his companion's bikini were soaked by the macro's emissions. A familiar sensation shot up Vinny's spine, and he climaxed into her massive folds. The giant had not finished however and continued to abuse his body for much longer. Kiva would finally cum after thoroughly soaking Vinny more than the pool ever had.
After their quick tryst in the public pool, the two lovers waded in the water for an hour. Cracking jokes and teasing one another as if their entire existence had not changed overnight. They knew that in less than a week they would never be able to live in this place or any like it again. Vinny wished deep in his heart that Kiva would not be subjected to the worst this world had to offer. He feared that if she became too large for the government to handle that they might consider her not worth the effort. But more importantly, he feared the circumstances surrounding her would become too much and that he might abandon her out of cowardice.
Looking up from his trance, he saw the Dire Wolf sporting a very wide smile as she relaxed in the comparatively shallow pool of water. She seemed so happy at this moment simply being with him and not caring about the opinions of others.
Vinny felt a rush of energy flow through him. If he could not protect her, then he would stay by her side until the bitter end. He made a promise to her and himself to push forward together. Even if the world wanted to fight them, he knew they would fight back.
The Dire Wolf began to shift around and fiddle with her chest. The bikini top she had previously been wearing was now too tight to fit on her considerable chest.
“We might be skinny dipping today, hun." She said, fidgeting with her useless top.
The next morning Vinny woke up and Kiva had grown larger.
