Liaisons, part 2
#6 of CASINO NIGHTS
This chapter has had the most significant re-writing so far. I went back corrected a few things, but most importantly- I added some new scenes that are important to the upcoming chapters.
I've used some rather strange names for my characters. I didn't want everyone to have contemporary names, but at the same time- I thought that some of the name should be unusual, but not to point of being unreal. Ursa is derived from Ursula- which is Latin for "rabbit". Some of others are more obvious- like Xander. Though often, it's just a case of picking a name that sounds good.
.o.o.o.
**CASINO NIGHTS
"Liaisons, part 2"**
.o.o.o.
Xander looked down at Regina, who was still unconscious in the station's medi-bay. She breathed slowly and evenly while the equipment monitored her vital signs and sent the data to a monitor on the other end of the room.
"Yes, just as I thought..." Doctor Vargas remarked as she examined the readout. She turned to look at the wolf, who regarded her as she spoke. Vargas was an older black feline hybrid with cropped grayish-white hair that stopped above her collar. She wore a white lab coat with a red medical emblem on her right arm.
She cleared her throat as she looked at the data pad in her hand. "Regina succumbed to a condition that is rather common in Ichthillians- heat sickness." She explained. "Tell me, did she behave at all unusual when you spoke to her?"
Xander nodded and placed his hands on his hips. "Actually, she was acting pretty stranger..." He began. "She said something about the heat getting to her." He explained. "She... um, got pretty touchy with me as well." He admitted, blushing faintly, crossing his arms.
Vargas nodded knowingly and smiled. "Yes, that does sound pretty much in line with what was happening to her." She began. She then set the pad down and place a hand on her hip. "You see Mr. Emerson- Regina and her kind are essentially lizards... They're cold blooded and very vulnerable to changes in the temperature around them." She explained.
"As an Ichthillian, there are only a few instances in which they'd willingly expose themselves to warm temperatures." She continued. "It's to raise their body temperature and increase blood flow. And they only really do this in preparation of a battle... or, for when they want to engage in sexual activities."
"In Regina's case, and given all the facts... I'd say that it's the latter of the two." Vargas added with a smile, tucking her hands into her coat pockets and turned to look at Regina. "I'm not going to be coy with you Mr. Emerson- Regina is attracted to you. Her body was being flooded with endorphins to induce a sense of euphoria... and in her case, I suspect arousal."
Xander had perked up as she had explained the last part. "Wait, if you're saying that this is normal for her kind, then why did she loose consciousness like that?"
"That's because under normal circumstances, she'd experience the temperature change gradually- and as a normal part of her cycle." The cat replied. "The sudden increase of warmth overwhelmed her." The cat explained. "A body can't keep producing hormones indefinitely without consequences..." She paused.
The older cat looked at him with a serious expression. "If the hormones just kept building up, they would have reached toxic levels." She explained. "So, something had to give."
"Like what?" Xander asked. "Listen, I'm sorry, but you'll have to forgive my lack of knowledge on Ichthillian biology."
Vargas regarded him for a moment. "Well... There's really only three possible outcomes... One, she'd try to kill you. Two, she'd have to have an orgasm. Or Three, she's pass out." The feline explained. "and it seems in this this case- it was number three."
"Will she be alright?" Xander asked with a certain level of unease and just a touch of annoyance in his voice.
Vargas nodded. "Well yes, she'll make a full recovery very soon and there should be no lasting effects." She finished, noting the wolf simply nodded while looking over at the sleeping female. "Perhaps you'd like to be alone with her..." She remarked. "I'll be in my office, tending to other matters if you happen to need me."
.o.o.o.
Xander walked into the room with Regina. Her thick black dreadlocks hung about her face. He reached down to brush them to the side. She sighed and glanced up at him. "We really have to stop meeting like this." Xander commented with a smile and brushed a hand over her cheek. He felt an odd affection for her at that moment in time- some sort of bond between the two of them...
Regina felt her face get warm as she flushed slightly from the contact. She smiled a bit, savoring the contact. "I couldn't help it... it was warm." She paused. "I can remember the feeling of my blood running hot... And you stirred something within me..."
Xander smiled at her. "How do you feel now?" He asked as he pulled up a metal chair by the bed and sat down beside her.
She sighed and closed her eyes. "...I've been better." She conceded. "I haven't `been' with anyone in a while... not since Rex...." She paused. "There was so much going on inside me... I wanted to know if you feel anything for me. But the heat was too much for me, and I don't really know how anything about attracting guys."
"But I still want you to know that it wasn't just the heat talking back there... I really think I'm attracted to you." She finished and turned on her side so as to have her back to him.
He rested a hand on her shoulder and smiled to himself. "Well, I'll be honest with you... I've begun to find you very attractive as well..." He was quiet as she rolled back over and looked at him, her cheeks darkening again as their eyes met.
.o.o.o.
Later on, Xander was forced to excuse himself. Though, he promised Regina that he'd be by to pick her up when she was feeling better...
He was now in the promenade that encircled the tow-story casino in the center. Shops and other things lined the far side of the area and various visitors milled about in the area, usually coming from or going to the casino. He nimbly brushed past someone as he moved along.
A red fox turned and looked over her shoulder at him as he passed by. She peered out at him through the black glasses she wore. Her tail stuck through the hole in the back of her black leather skirt and she wore a similar leather jacket over a white top.
A smile graced her lips as she watched the wolf walk off into the crowd.
Xander walked into the HQ of Station Security. He stepped inside the small lobby and noticed one of the officers sitting at a desk. The wolf walked over and introduced himself.
The Officer, Deputy Zant (according to his ID tag), was a slender male raccoon hybrid with short light brown hair. He was dressed in a pair of dull blue pants (with black combat boots) and a light gray shirt with blue trim.
"My name is Xander Emerson, I was sent an invoice to come here." The Wolf announced.
He looked up at him for a moment and nodded. "Yes, of course- you must be here to to file your report regarding the incident with the Ichthillian?" He asked in a polite tone. Xander nodded. "Then you can go on ahead and take the door to the right- directly to Chief Constable Mercer."
He nodded and made his way to the door, which promptly slid open once Zant cleared him through. Xander then proceeded down a short hall, till he reached the door at the end of it. It slid open and he walked inside.
Xander was greeted by the sight of a tall dark gray male wolf- who looked to be in his late thirties to early forties. He had short grayish hair and was dressed in a similar uniform to the others- except, in his case, his uniform bore the various emblems and crests (badges) that denoted him as the ranking Senior Officer. Mercer stood up and shook hands with Xander.
He then accepted the data pad that Xander offered him."Thank you for taking the time to provide this report." He began. "As head of station security, I need to be aware of anything unusual that happens around here- and this will help save to expedite the investigation." He added.
"Investigation?" Xander asked.
"It's just a formality," Mercer began as he set the data pad down on his desk. "Procedure requires that we investigate any unusual incidents on the station... mainly for the sake of posterity." He added with a smile.
Xander nodded in understanding. "Well then, if you don't need me any more- I think I'll head on out." He replied.
Mercer nodded. "Yes, of course." He replied. Xander started to leave when the other wolf spoke up again. "Just one thing- should you happen to witness anything out of the ordinary, feel free to contact me on this code." He spoke, handing him a card with a sequence of numbers on it.
Xander nodded and left the office. He made his way down the hall and back into the reception room. He passed another deputy- this one was a male red fox hybrid with medium length reddish brown hair. The fox had the same blue and gray uniform on as the others, and Xander noted that his ID had the name "Orson" on it.
.o.o.o.
"Well, you must be pretty busy now that the tourists have finally arrived?" Xander asked as he leaned against the wall of the staff lounge. His question had been directed at the white rabbit sitting down in front of him.
The light blue frilly blouse, along with a matching dark blue vest and skirt, hugged her figure nicely as she sat with one leg hitched over the other. A high-heal shoe dangled from the tip of her slender foot. Glamorous blond locks framed the smiling face while her blue eyes regarded him. "But of course... I am in charge of public relations." She replied with a smile.
She then uncrossed and re-crossed her legs the other way, taking a sip from the slick little teacup in her delicate hand. "Speaking of relations... aren't you due to pick up Regina from the medi-bay tomorrow?" She asked with a cute little smile on her rosy lips.
Xander was dressed in a pair of tight black pants and a matching t-shirt that hugged his chest. He regarded her with a fond smile. "Yes." He replied simply and moved in closer towards her. "You seem to be well informed." he added, taking a seat beside her.
She smiled at him and brushed a few locks of blond hair out of her eyes. "It's my job to keep up with the well being of the people one this station."
Xander thought about this for a moment. "Interesting that you should mention that..." He began. "You know about the `special' units that seem to be set up around the station- the extra ones that aren't shown in the schematics, don't you?" He asked the rabbit in a low voice.
Ursa looked at the wolf, meeting his gaze. "Yes... well, some of them anyway." She began in a knowing tone. "I've always been of the opinion that a good thing should be relished and appreciated... and Rex shared that belief." She added.
Xander nodded. "So, he was the one had the recorders installed..." He mused. "To capture you guys having sex around the station so that you could watch it later?" The wolf added in a sly tone.
Ursa smiled at him and held up a white hand. "Well, not just that... Rex was a voyeur... harmless, but a voyeur none the less." She explained in an almost nostalgic tone. "He really liked it when I screwed a guy in some place where he had a camera set up." She added enthusiastically.
Xander smiled at the revelation. "So, he liked to watch then?"
Ursa grinned. "Don't get me wrong, Rex and I enjoyed each others company on many occasions... and he had no problem getting it up... but he liked the idea of seeing something that he wasn't meant to." She added in a conspiratorial tone.
Xander crossed his arms. "Interesting... I don't suppose you know how many he had set up or where he might have installed them?" He asked.
She rubbed her chin thoughtfully. "Well, I knew about the one in the spa..." she replied. "And I let him put one in my room as well- though I could control it from my end as well." She added, pausing to look at the wolf. "He had others... but I'm not really sure about them..." She admitted.
The wolf looked at her for a moment. "You're saying that Rex was spying on people around here and no one ever noticed or complained?" Xander asked incredulously. Secretly, he was somewhat envious at the notion, but didn't admit it.
She nodded. "Don't be so outraged." The rabbit countered. "Rex had other playmates... and the cameras most likely would have been in places relative to them." She explained. "If you really want to know the extent of his little operation, then you'll just have to figure it out."
The wolf smiled. "Fair enough."
.o.o.o.
The room was dark...
The young feline found herself bent over the table while another figure stood behind her, inspecting her slender form and long tale.
Mimi gasped as a soft, furred hand reached down and stroked her tale, causing her to moan softly. After a few moments of this, the action stopped and she felt another hand come down and then the feeling of her skirt being hoisted up past her waste.
She hissed as a clawed finger probed her through the thin fabric of the simple panties that she wore. The finger pulled back a bit and began running up and down the length of her slit through the fabric. Slowly, she felt dampness building up in her and realized that her moist slit would be distinguishable through the fabric.
Cool air touched her nether lips as the damp garment was pulled down, exposing her to the figure hovering behind her. Hips bucked as two fingers invade her slit, thrusting inward with skilled precision. She groaned and ground her hips into the probing digits as her shadowy visitor tormented her to greater and greater heights!
It was relentless and she was quickly finding herself bucking into the movements like a wild animal. She felt herself being flipped onto her back as he the other descended between her legs and a tongue delved into her passage. The assailant licked and sucked at her core with great skill and quickly found the sensitive little nub of flesh at the apex of her opening.
Mimi had pulled the little strapless top she had on down to expose her small breast and began squeeze and toying with them. He own hands pinched and flicked at the small stiff pink nipples while a mouth and tongue sucked hard on her private parts.
She came hard and cried out. She gasped for air in ragged, uneven breaths... She looked up at the figure now hovering above her. She nodded and opened her mouth to speak. "Thank you... mistress."
.o.o.o.
Regina smiled slightly as she looked around the room. The furnishings were simple and not overly ornate or fancy.
Xander had insisted on carrying her back to his room, regardless of her protests of having recovered or the fact that they might be seen like this. He'd merely shrugged off the issue. Now inside, he advanced inwards, holding her in his strong arms and deposited her on his bed.
She had come from the medi-bay, so she wasn't wearing her usual clothing or her baggy boiler suit, just a simple white sleeveless blouse and skirt- both standard issue for patients. She blushed when she felt the wolf slip off the sandals she had on. She flexed the muscled in her feet as the fine green scales covering her caught the dull light of the room.
Xander placed a hand on her leg and slowly ran his palm along the length till her stopped at her inner thigh. She gasped in response and looked up in time to see him smile down at her. "I told you I'd take care of you." He told her reassuring and leaned forward to kiss her lightly on the lips.
The wolf found the strange smoothness of her face interesting and noted that her lips were surprisingly soft. The scales on her face, like the ones on her inner thighs (and stomach and breasts), were smaller and finer than the others.
He slid behind her and picked her up, hoisting her into his lap for better access to her body. Regina's cheeks flushed as she felt his hard body through the thin fabric she wore, including a certain hardness through his pants.
"...Xander." She moaned weakly and chewed her lip. His hand had found her right breast and squeezed it gently through the blouse while he cradled her. Her whole body ached as he tended to her. His thumb and forefinger quickly began teasing the nipple through fabric till it became stiff.
The other hand was quick to give the same attention to the other breast and soon she found herself moaning as he kneaded her breast through the fabric. However, she almost screamed when she felt him grind against her with his own body. The junction between her thighs burned as she felt the friction of his hard-on through the clothing.
He paused and looked down at her, but could see that her cheeks were flushed a dark green and she was trembling slightly. Regina was vaguely aware of the blouse rising up over her head and being tosses aside. She was really focused on the hands now fondling her breasts... tweaking and teasing the hard nub of flesh that were her nipples. The wolf licked at her collarbone and then up her neck as she writhed in a fog of sensation.
Her skirt was quickly loosened and pulled off of her. She was repositioned on her back across his bead and her hovered over her, taking in her body- now clad only in a simple pair of white panties, which her noted were becoming damp. He lowered his head between her legs, placing them on his shoulders and slowly inhaled the strong scent of arousal coming from beneath the damp garment.
She propped herself up onto her elbows in time to see him run his rough tongue along her slit through the thin material. She moaned and muttered his name in a pained whisper as his tongue casually ran across her pussy, soaking the fabric even more and making her slit visible.
He withdrew a bit and pulled the panties to the side, revealing her dripping core. Regina wondered silently about just how bad she was staining his sheets as he looked down at her appreciatively. He pulled the panties up to her knees, stretching it as far as it would go, and delved back in.
The wolf lapped at the lips of her pussy before dipping his tongue into it. "Oh god..." She hissed as his mouth moved upward. He found her clit and sucked on it skillfully. She cursed out loud while he continued licking her. The wolf smiled, please with himself and how well he was working her up. He could tell from her thrashing that she wasn't far from climax.
She gripped the sheets, nearly shredding them as she screamed from the orgasm. Xander pulled back, licking his lips and wiping off his face- enjoying the strange taste of her juices. He looked down and grinned oddly as he noticed her juices soaking his bed sheets.
Little spasms shot through her body as Regina slowly came down from the climax. She sighed gently and eased into the soft sheets beneath her. She didn't really noticed as Xander laid down beside her and pulled a blanket up over the two of them. She finally turned to her side and looked at him. "Xander?"
The wolf closed the gap between them and kissed her softly on the lips. "Don't worry about anything, just rest." He told her softly. She felt him snake his arms around her narrow waist and pull her up against him. She could also feel that he wasn't wearing anything, but she was too tired at the moment to dwell on that...
(- End of Chapter 6 -)
.o.o.o.
This chapter had to be reworked for a number of reasons. There were a few continuity errors, like names and bits of information that needed to be fixed. I significantly changed the "Doctor Vargas" character as well (the original one had a different name) and added the scenes in the security center, with Mercer and the others.
I'm much more happy with this draft. I think it does a better job of telling the story and moving the plot along. I also think I did a better job of portraying Xander and Regina's relationship in this version. It's more subtle and understated... as it should have been.
