Chapter 4: Careful What You Wish For.

Where... Where am I? What is this place? It's white...

Whiteness was all there was, nothing different. It was pure, unfaltering, unchanging white. The color was all about him, in him. Perry could feel white, hear white, smell white, and taste white. Then, out of the white, there was the sound of white shattering.

"...Where am I?" Perry looked about, no longer experiencing the bright color. He was back in the driver's seat of his car, with Lila sitting next to him, a big grin on her dark violet muzzle. She bent over and licked his cheek in his confusion, bringing him out of shock to playfully jerk away. "Oh... Wow, that was something else entirely!"

"You'll get used to it soon enough. At least you came back in one piece!" As she said that, Perry's expression changed to one of horror, and she burst out laughing. "Perry, I believe you'd call that a joke? Hehehe! Got ya." Perry almost melted with relief. Of course she was joking... He'd hoped. The car started smoothly... Perfectly, even!

They pulled out and drove across town to Perry's house, talking about vore all the way. Perry was still amazed at Lila being such a dream come true. "It's interesting... Your race is based entirely on eating others, but being able to bring them back while mine is close to the same, but has no way to bring our food to life again. Plus, we can't even gulp down the amounts you can... How'd we end up so similar, but different?" He watched her from the corner of his eye as he drove, thinking about her answer. She seemed to be deep in thought, and then her expression lightened.

"I think it's simple. Some of the magical energy in our planet was absorbed by the spawn of life on the newly formed Earth here. An overall... personality was probably formed, a set of hard-coded instincts that imprinted on the first living creatures. Those instincts could have been to eat others, but there wasn't enough magic generated to let them advance in that direction again. And here you are... Hehe, I think I wanna learn about how your people developed sometime." Lila smiled and twitched her tail up his arm as he drove. They pulled into the driveway, and Lila's tail slipped up his shirt sleeve. He could feel it traveling down to his belly, and plugging itself into his navel. Her body shrunk, and she followed her tail until she was sitting in the rim of his bellybutton, using her tail to tickle the wall behind her. Perry had to stifle his laughs as he walked in the door and up to his room. Closing the door, he finally let out a few giggles and raised his shirt up, falling back on the bed and tipping Lila onto the soft bottom of his navel.

The lioness only laughed and kissed the floor of it, before growing a little bit larger and sitting tightly in the bellybutton, stretching the rim out. He relaxed as he felt that, such a nice sensation... "Oh hey Lila! That's right, you wanted to learn, you said. I guess it's the internet for you then. Are you planning on staying there, or what? Not that I mind..." He laughed as she popped out and hovered over to his computer, sitting in the chair in front of it. He switched it on and brought up a window of Groogle, and showed her how to work it. "Just type in what you want to look up and click the search button. I've got a few good sites bookmarked for you, like Slickipedia. You can look up a lot of information on anything there..." He continued explaining it, until she finally nodded, and began surfing the internet.

"This is easy! All right Perry, I'll take it from here." She nodded to him and began typing in information to look up, scanning the pages more quickly than Perry ever could. He walked over to his bed, and yawned. He pulled out his textbooks to work on his homework he'd gotten that day. That's one thing he wasn't going to ask Lila to do for him!

The hours passed, and except for murmurs of interest and amazement from Lila, she was almost motionless. Perry had finished his homework and lay on the bed, watching her ears twitch as she listened to sound files and watched video clips. He could feel himself growing more relaxed and sleepy by the second just watching her, until he finally nodded off. As he did, Lila glanced over her shoulder at him, smiling softly. "Now for the real work..." Her form glowed, dissolving into a ball of light in midair. It hovered to the screen of Perry's computer, and merged in with it. Lila quickly moved in through the electrical workings of the computer, and out into cyberspace. She had to act fast, or this could end up badly. She tracked her way along the information highway to anywhere she could, absorbing as much information as she could. She experienced movies, history, games, ideas, thoughts, actions, and much more inside of a few seconds, storing it in her mind to go through it all later. But mostly... She was searching for one thing. She kept reading, more and more, traveling around to different servers and websites, finding bit by bit, the clues she was looking for. More and more seconds passed, and she began to feel a twinge in her consciousness. There wasn't much time left, but she'd gotten what she'd needed. She raced back along the electrical pathways and into Perry's room once again, all inside of a few minutes.

She sat back and sighed, her head swimming with the information she'd processed so quickly. She climbed out of the chair and onto the bed with Perry, curling her large body about his smaller one. He always felt so good to her, snuggled into the curve of her belly. However, she'd liked it better when he was in there... It didn't matter, as she drifted off to let her mind sort out the information she'd dug up.


Perry yawned, and turned over. He smooshed his face into the wide, fuzzy body pillow on his bed, noting how nice it smelled and warm it was. A sudden purr from Lila's sleeping form jolted him back awake, and he realized the body pillow was the sleeping lioness, snuggled up against him once again. He gave a sleepy grin, yawning again and licking her fur with his tongue. It tasted just as good as it smelled, and he realized this was the first time he'd actually tasted her. It was yet another of his fantasies brought to life, and perfectly done. Her body was very mellow, almost a soapy flavor, but without the nastiness and bitter flavors that were associated with the product. She had been sweating slightly, and Perry could taste it. It was quite different than the salty concoction of Earth's inhabitants, actually tasting sweet in its composition. In addition, there was her oily fur, kept shiny and slick by that, much like one would expect for any human or animal to have. It was a mix of wonderful flavors, and he pressed his face into Lila's belly with more vigor. His face imprinted in the fur, and he could feel her dark skin underneath it, warm and pulsing with life. He traced the lines of her ribs, as well as the central one leading down to her wonderfully beautiful outie. This time, Perry found himself drooling as he stared at it. Lila's taste had hooked him, and he wanted more...

Lila had already woken up, however, and shifted her eyes down to watch Perry. She shivered when he licked her, enjoying his soft human tongue touching her stomach. She'd secretly wanted him to do that for a while now, but she figured it was best to take things slowly. Her stomach tensed and relaxed as his finger traced around it, as she'd always enjoyed belly rubs with the others back home, especially when hers was full. It was then that she saw him staring at her large navel, and decided to take some action. Her paw reached out, and pressed his face to her belly again, and she guided his head down to her outie slowly, purring loudly as his face pressed in more and more sensitive belly areas, her navel almost twitching by the time his chin bumped it.

Perry was shocked, her navel growing larger and larger by the second as his face was forced closer to it. It touched his chin with a slight bump, and he could feel it, slightly wet with sweat. It bent out of the way as his chin passed, and went back to normal as Lila stopped pushing his head, the tip of the nub resting delicately against his lips. He wanted to faint, his mind overloaded by dream after dream becoming a reality. He took a deep breath, smelling Lila's entire stomach and the wonderful scent that went with it. He had barely noticed it, but today she smelled more like oranges, a tangy scent that wanted to burn his nose, but didn't. His lips puckered, and Perry kissed the end of the bellybutton. He could feel it pulled to his mouth, slowly released as he broke the suction and letting the belly claim it again. Once more he kissed it, harder this time, and the navel pressed into his lips this time, dimpling them inward with the pressure as it began to slide past them with its wetness, and into his mouth. In moments, the orb was safely in the warm confines of his jaws, his lips pursed against her stomach now.

He could feel her outie inside the moist cavern of his mouth, his breath drifting down onto it in short spurts. Perry's lips locked tighter about the little ball of flesh and fur, and his tongue touched down to it for the first time. It was an electrifying sensation, the sweat of her body touching the wet saliva of his tongue. It was as if by another of her magics, she'd concentrated as much of her flavor as she could into her navel. The soft organ explored the even softer surface of Lila's bellybutton, feeling the skin give way and push into her belly with each poke. The tongue tried to press into the line puckering her navel, but the little bubble slipped around too much. Perry almost instinctively knew what to do, almost as if he was being guided. His teeth locked on Lila's navel knot, making the lioness give an immense purr of pleasure. He took note of that through his hazy bliss, biting down more on the bellybutton, feeling it squeeze and change shape between his teeth.

His tongue poked down into the crevice now, the belly unable to claim the navel into safety, and Perry lapped at the creases deep within, tracing his saliva all over the surface of Lila's skin. It was a treasure trove of flavor, and the huge feline even had traces of lint inside there, which Perry tenderly cleaned out, sweeping them away with his hungry licks.

Lila was enjoying every second of it, from bite to lick, everything Perry was doing was incredible stimulation on her belly, like being tickled and pleasured from multiple areas all at once. She gasped as a wave of pleasurable sensation shout through her belly again, as Perry gave a hard suck on the knot in his mouth, drawing the flavor, oil, and his own saliva off of it, only to go back and tease it some more. She bent herself forward to lick the top of the human's head lovingly, feeling his teeth stretch her navel farther from the stomach it was attached to with her bending away like that. His tongue slimed its way over the knot again, before Perry shifted it to his molars and began to slowly chew the outie bellybutton, making the huge feline fall back and moan, arching her back towards his mouth to give him more of her navel to work with. It felt so amazing, she wanted to have more of that skin inside there...

Perry's teeth kept grinding over the large umbilicus in his mouth, harder and harder. It was swelling a little from the rough treatment, but he could barely do more with his weak jaws. He even bit down as hard as he could, almost flattening Lila's bellybutton to a pancake, but he had to give up before his teeth started cracking. The result however, was a long, slow groan of intense enjoyment from the feline before him. Her belly twitched and heaved beneath him, pressing her fur and her entire belly up to his face as much as she could. The only thing he could breathe was the scent of her body, which had changed when he'd started giving so much attention to it. Beneath, he could hear her belly gurgling, probably still working over whatever was left of him... Perry could also see the glistening of her fur, specifically where his own drooling saliva had touched it. Aside from that, she was like a heavenly pillow, warm and beautiful. It was wonderful, something his heart had been aching to experience, but never even daring to hope that it could be accomplished on this level.

Perry felt like it was time to stop, but couldn't stop his jaws from working over Lila's flesh. It was starting to feel more abused now, chewed over like an old piece of bubble gum, still wonderful, but very abused. This time, his mouth shifted to his canine teeth, the dull spikes pushing up and into the flesh as hard as they could, nearly breaking Lila's tough skin but not quite making it. With that, she gave a short krowl, her fingers gripping the bed sheets as she tried to stop from slathering him with licks. He could feel her entire body trembling now, and he gave one last bite, nipping at the very tip of her navel. With much less meat in the way, his teeth succeeded in piercing her flesh, letting him get his first taste of her meat. A trickle of blood flowed into his mouth, salty and coppery much like a human's. The meat, however, was sweet like crab meat, and he suckled on the new hole he'd made. The stimulation was too much for Lila, who wrapped her arms and legs about his frame, hugging him to her body as hard as she could. Perry couldn't breathe, but was enjoying every second of the sensation. His head and chest were pounding, but the intense bliss offset everything else by a long shot.

After a few more moments, they both let go. Perry reluctantly slipped his mouth from the navel and studied it. It was significantly larger than before, swelled up and dimpled all over with bite marks, especially with the holes at the tip of it where he'd pierced at last. Lila didn't let up much from her hug, still pressing his body onto hers as much as possible, but letting him breathe.

"That... was... wonderful..." Perry still had to catch his breath and get his brain back in working order after that incredible experience, but he was slowly normalizing. Lila continued to purr, however, the biggest smile of satisfaction on her face that he'd ever seen.

"I thought so too. Those bites were just perfect, especially that last one..." She let out another purr of pleasure as she thought back on it. It was then that her stomach gave a large grumble, right underneath Perry's chin. For a moment, his expression didn't change, but then his face lit up.

"Lila, I have a big wish... But I think it could benefit both of us. I'd like to not have to sleep anymore, or just when I want to. I'm guessing you have that control over yourself, but with what I want to do tonight, I could use that kind of energy." He smiled, having a plan concocted in his head. The sun was already going down, and before long, it would be perfect for what he wanted to do.

"Done." Lila's eyes flashed a golden color, and suddenly, he felt as if he'd been sleeping for days. He had as much energy as an Olympic runner on steroids, and felt perfect. Perry hugged her belly and kissed her outie again, before standing up, reluctantly feeling her arms and legs parting to let him move.

"Lila, you prefer your food live, right?" She nodded, and he continued. "I can tell in addition to swallowing things whole, you might actually prefer ripping and tearing, correct?" He blushed, taking a gamble on his assumption, and then letting a sigh of relief escape his lips as Lila beamed.

"You know me too well Perry, I do. What did you have in mind?" She ran her tongue across her thin lips, thinking of many things he could possibly be offering her tonight. What would it be? More ham, or any number of new human dishes?

Perry waggled his finger. "It's going to be a surprise. I already left my mom a note that I was going to eat dinner elsewhere, so she won't bother us tonight. Just follow me!" Perry finished, and walked over to the window, opening it with a grunt. Cool night air flowed into the room, no longer hot from the sun's rays, as the sun had gone down. He was about to grab a flashlight, when he caught a flash out of the corner of his eye. Slowly, it was as if the sun had come back up, but everything looked strange... like it had twice the amount of shadows on it that it should have. He realized that he now had night vision, much like that of a cat's. He climbed out onto the ledge, and then used the strong ivy that had grown into their house to make his way down. Lila followed, moving much more quickly and dexterously behind him until she too hit the ground. Perry led her into the wooded are behind his house, a small trail through it. They soon came to a field, and cut across it in the tall grass. Perry led her to a stream running through the field, and they followed it for two miles, until the stream emptied into a quiet pond. "Here we are, Lila. Now we wait quietly." Lila nodded, searching the area in the darkness.

It was fairly open, except for a thick stand of trees that had grown close to the water's edge. They were fairly open and spaced far apart from each other. The water itself was very clear, and it kept moving. The other side of it across the stream had a bank, which looked like it had many tracks in it of different animals that had come to drink.

It was just at that time that something came walking out from the trees, a large buck. It looked too big for even Lila to be able to swallow, which was perfect. The rack of antlers assured it, and Lila's eyes grew large. She identified it as a white-tailed deer, a very common species that even humans hunted for food or sport. She was drooling, and her legs began twitching. She spoke to Perry through their minds again. (It looks delicious... Is this your surprise?)

Perry only gave the slightest of nods. Lila quickly formulated a strategy in her mind. She very slowly got up, the deer seeming not to take any notice of her movement. Perry was turned into his micro self, and floated up to Lila's collarbone. He was set in the safest place she could think of at the moment. The deer had looked up by now, noticing a large change in the scenery on the other side of the pond. In a lightning fast dash, Lila was on the other side near the deer, which bolted as soon as she moved for the safety of the trees. Lila was hot on his tail, moving at speeds that Perry would have thought unimaginable. He realized that this was a natural running speed for most animals, and he sat back and enjoyed it.

The deer raced ahead of them, legs pumping and bounding along to try and get away from the feline. Lila's heart was pumping in her chest, and she kept pace with the deer, gaining slowly as it tired. The lioness closed the gap between them, foot by foot as branches and leaves whisked by them. At last, with a roar, Lila leapt and landed on the back of the deer, who bawled and fell to the ground, taking lioness and human with him. It was all Perry could do to hold on while the buck struggled to get the clinging feline off his back. She dug her claws in, having punched through the hide and dragging deep red lines through the cervid's flesh. In one fluid movement, she punched the deer's flailing head into the ground, stunning it long enough for her to get a death grip on its throat. The struggled increased tenfold once the animal learned how much peril it was in, but Lila's teeth crushed down on its neck. She could feel the deer's short fur under her tongue as she licked its throat, and felt the laboring of its airway as she crushed it in her jaws. She could feel her teeth penetrate the tough hide with ease as well, moving down through the flesh as she tried to grind her teeth down to cause as much neck damage as she could. Then, with a snapping sound audible in the sudden silence, all movement ceased. Lila had bitten clean through its spine in the struggle. She watched its eyes grow glassy, and then stepped off, watching blood gush from the holes of her teeth marks. She licked the dripping drool and blood from her own teeth and lips, giving a small murr of enjoyment as she tasted the salty flavor of the thickening fluid.

It was then that she remembered Perry was still clinging to her. She looked down and saw him looking back up at her, sitting in a red pool of blood and saliva. "Oh, uh... Sorry Perry." He just shrugged, and clung to her finger as she set him on the ground and enlarged him again. He just sat down on a nearby stump and watched her kneel back down next to the deer.

Lila's stomach was audible in the deathly silence, the only sound in the clearing was of the gurgling feline guts clamoring for their meal. She bent to the white belly of the cervid, running her tongue along it to taste the slick, oily flavor of the buck. It was delightful, very natural. Her jaws opened and she latched onto the furred surface, biting through the thin belly skin to get a good grip on the tasty meat within. Her long teeth sliced through into the belly cavity, still full of pulsating internal organs. She growled as she pulled back, sounds of wet slurping and tearing following in front of her jaws as she pulled the strip of deer belly from the surrounding meat. Immediately, viscous juices oozed forth as well as a pile of intestinal tract, all spilling out onto Lila's lap. She sucked down the skin, fat, and muscle wall she'd ripped out and grabbed a pulsating loop of intestines, and ripped it in half. It stopped moving, and half-digested plant fiber fell out to the side, steaming in the evening air from being so warm inside the deer's body. The lioness gripped the tubing and squeezed out all the juices and drained them, pulling out a good few lengths of the intestines in the process. The ooze had all drained, and she stuck an end in her jaws, the lined organ quivering slightly as she bit into it. A deep purr escaped her as she tore and swallowed the piece, followed by another, and then another. Within moments, she was stuffing her maw greedily with the brown entrails of the deer laying dead before her.

Perry continued to watch in amazement as Lila reached the end of the first half, tearing it free from the anus of the deer. The other half disappeared just as fast, in a shower of intestinal juices and thickening blood. Lila's face was coated with the red, barely noticeable in her fur except that it turned her face, normally a lighter shade of purple, to a nearly jet black color, with a red outline in the moonlight. She bent down and greedily fed up to the deer's stomach, which she deeply bit into to tear it wide open, spilling the contents onto the ground. The deer's head jerked as its esophagus was yanked, and its lifeless mouth and nostrils spurted a small gush of blood. It was in the lioness's mouth a fraction of a second, before she tossed it back and swallowed it down. Soon, the entire digestive tract had been removed entirely, only a mix of fluids and blood inside the body cavity among other organs. The deer's kidneys and liver were removed, the liver splattering nearly black blood on Lila's body as it was torn apart in her jaws, bite after bite of the meat disappearing into her hungry maw. Lungs and much of the muscle system and fat inside the cervid were scraped out by her hungry teeth, leaving almost nothing intact. Lila smashed the head of her prey on a rock, prying open the skull and removing the brain, eyes still attached to it, and unraveling it. She sucked it down like a large, extremely slimy spaghetti noodle. Perry was amazed to see that her belly had barely changed in size. It was showing a slight bulge, but nothing more.

The next half hour for Perry was breathtaking, as Lila tore out bite after bite of red venison from the belly and flanks of the cervid. Bone ground against bone, and then broke as she tore a rib off, licking it to scrape off any trace of meat before throwing it to the side, doing the same with the others. Every so often, she would bend down to the pool of blood inside and lap some up to quench her thirst. In the distance, night birds called warnings of the new intruder into their forest, keeping a wide, watchful eye for the predator. The legs of the buck were destroyed in strips, as Lila dug in with her claws to help slice down slabs of meat. Loud pops and sounds of twisting ligaments signaled the removal of each new strip down the strong, leg, reducing it from thick muscle to cleaned white bone. Soon, all four legs were skeletal, Lila sighing in contentment. She took one more juicy bite from the rump of the deer, running her tongue over the short hair on the skin and tasting the juices and blood of the creature running one last time into her mouth.

Perry stayed still, watching the scene of brutality before him in awe. Lila was a true killing and eating machine, and nobody could stop her if they'd wanted to. Lila stood, her face and front completely bloodstained. Her eyes glowed at him in the dark, and her white teeth showed in a smile. "Thank you so much Perry! That was worth every bite. Mmmm... I just love fresh meat." She ran her tongue around her lips, trying to clean the blood from them. Perry's guts twitched, as he debated to offer the second part of his plan.

It wasn't going to happen, though. "I think I'm going to go get cleaned up, Perry. I'll meet you back here in a little while." She stood up, still dripping with a little bit of blood. He thought for a second, and then nodded back to her.

"Sure Lila, see you in a little while." With that, she padded off silently, back towards the pond. She definitely needed a bath after all that! Perry walked about the buck's carcass, looking at the abused and smashed body. There was almost no meat whatsoever left on it. It was almost as if it had been here for days now, aside from the ground feeling spongy from the absorbed blood and fluids. He was bending close to trace along one of the remaining ribs with his finger, when he heard a rustling behind him. Lila couldn't be back that quickly, surely. They were a good few miles from the pond now. He turned around to see another pair of eyes glowing at him in the darkness. There was a low growl, and a different arrangement of sharp teeth looking back at him, incredibly close to him. As he watched, the figure rose to tower above him. A thick tail swished back and forth, and the fur was definitely longer and thicker than Lila's. From what he could see... It even had a green color to it, except for the ends of the hand paws and the entire belly. It was a wolf, but a wolf on its hind legs? He smiled, and got ready to get up. "Funny trick, but why didn't you use magic to clean up in the first place? Besides, there's something else I wanted to let you have with your meal-Oof! What the?" He was pushed back to the ground by a shove of one of the footpaws of the wolf.

"Quiet. You're a strange human... You'll go well in my belly tonight." The strangely colored lupine stared down at him with a burning glare from its red eyes. Perry continued looking, realizing that it was a she. Two breasts covered by a small t-shirt kept them mostly hidden from his sight, and the small pair of feminine underwear boasted no male parts. Perry took it in, and was very confused.

"But you just ate! Are you reading my mind? I was about to offer you some dessert." To that, the wolf only cocked her head. Perry lifted his shirt, showing his bellybutton to her. "I thought that maybe since you enjoyed that so much, you might like something willing to follow it up." He blushed, and prodded his navel with his finger. The face bent down to his stomach, and gave it a sniff. A smile spread across the black lips, but it was cold, and had no warmth like Lila's did.

"Oh, right. Sure, I think I have plenty of room." With that, the wolf opened her jaws, and flopped her drooling tongue onto his belly. It hit with a wet splatter, slopping thick drool all over it. Oddly enough, there was much more than what he had expected from Lila... In fact, she was pooling it back into his bellybutton. It filled up with the viscous canine spit, which she lapped back out with slow, practiced strokes of her tongue. This was starting to feel strange, but not so strange that he couldn't enjoy what was happening. The soft tongue pressed down into his navel as deep as it could go now, filling up his innie and whirling around in small circles on the bottom. The wolf rumbled a pleasured murring, quite enjoying his bellybutton. "So nice of you to choose my favorite part." She glanced at him before kissing his navel rim a few times, sucking out her saliva and swallowing the flavor-filled liquid. This time, her lips curled back, and she pressed her jaws against Perry's belly. The white teeth easily pushed his stomach flesh down and outward, flattening his navel and bringing his knot level with his belly. She used her soft hands to keep the skin taut, and began moving her teeth back and forth, working by feeling to find the spot where his navel knot was. In moments, she had it positioned between her jaws, and pushed down harder on his stomach. He could feel his insides squeezing and moving around, but leaving just enough pressure to pop his knot up more. There was a short growl as the jaws snapped forward, and several pinpricks drove into Perry's innie on either side. They ground forward, the wolven teeth easily slicing through his soft umbilical flesh. The birth scar was tugged, pulled up into the wolfess's mouth bit by bit, her head jerking forward and jaws snapping shut again every time she let go.

At last, she was holding his entire bellybutton in her mouth, drawn from an innie to a painfully bleeding outie. The pain was bliss to him, however, and he wriggled about under the jaws as they clamped tight on his navel. Was this how Lila had felt when he had played with her outie earlier? No, this must be a thousand times better. The teeth had only hurt momentarily when they'd pierced his skin. Deep inside his bellybutton, he could only feel them when they moved, and even then they only itched. Her jaws were grinding together slowly, slower and slower, as the chunk of meat got tougher towards the center. It was still no match for her though, easily snapping wetly free from the center, allowing the knob of flesh to come loose inside her mouth. He let out a short yelp of mixed pain and bliss, unable to keep from uttering it. The lupine jerked back, rumbling more as she toyed with the bloody meat bit. The deep hole in Perry's belly was filling with his own red fluid, and going over the side. He wasn't worried though, he'd soon be healed, or so he hoped. He watched the predator tuck the little bulge into one cheek and then the other, rolling it around on her tongue so he could watch when she opened her mouth. He shivered, it was creepy watching something like that but enjoying it at the same time. He watched her bite it into smaller pieces, chewing with her sharp shredding back teeth as well. A few chews later, his navel was little more than a mush of dog food, forming a throat bulge as the wolfess swallowed. She bent down to lap the blood from his belly, and it stopped flowing freely. However, it wasn't healed back up either. He could still feel the blasts of hot canine breath on his raw flesh on the bottom of his remaining navel that hadn't been bitten off. He tilted his head back and looked at the canopy of the forest, sighing a shaky breath of happiness.

It wasn't to last, as he felt himself being set upright. "Now, human, you get the chance to go on the trip of a lifetime. I'm obviously not who you think I am, so let me introduce myself. I'm Emerald. That's all you need to know now, because you're going to experience something that nobody on this planet of yours has the capability to replicate. I feel that you'll definitely be enjoying this, after offering me such a yummy treat." She gave a giggle, dark and cruel sounding. She was definitely getting a kick out of his confusion and pain. He'd had no clue that Emerald had existed, and in such close proximity to his house. However, his train of thought was interrupted as he was brought to the white belly of the lupine. He was looking directly into Emerald's own navel, a stark contrast in that it was almost completely furless inside. It was a deep pink color, with deeper splotches around it. Most noticeable was the tiny hole in the back, which nobody except someone this close would see.

His nose and mouth were forced into the opening, quite large in comparison to human navels. It was in proportion with what he'd seen on Lila, however, so he couldn't complain. He gave it a lick, drilling his tongue into it as fast as he could. It earned him a murr from the wolfess, and another shove. He gasped as the rim actually stretched like a pair of lips and engulfed his face, attaching to the front of his head with suction. It quickly worked up and over the top, and around the back of it. He could feel his face squished into the musky wolf umbilicus, a welcome change in scent, really. He took deep breaths of it, being more and more enticed by the scent every second. His neck was inside now too, joining him as he realized that the bellybutton must be stretching inward to accommodate him. He felt a pair of claws rip his shirt apart, and his pants as well, leaving only his boxers to hide his male bits. Exposed in the humid air about the wolfess, his shoulders were slick with sweat and humidity, and slipped easily into the opening as well as it squished and stretched its way over his shoulders. They finally made it though, the hardest part of his body to swallow conquered in a matter of seconds.

He felt himself lifted into the air, pushed hard into the navel. His face was mashed into the knot of flesh in the back again, but he could feel it stretch back to give him air and space each time. His chest and lower arms passed through the tight tube, as did his belly and raw navel. He was glad to have the hole out of the night air, when Emerald stuck a clawed finger down into it and wriggled it all about. Her finger was salty and sweaty, which burned his wounds painfully. He couldn't scream though, he didn't have the energy or the will for it. It was becoming sweaty in here as well, the walls oozing some kind of thick liquid over his body. As his legs were fed in, they were coated as well, and he was called up into the fetal position inside the navel. Only his feet stuck out, which Emerald poked and prodded, rubbing them unintentionally, more out of boredom.

He could feel a pounding starting in his head, however. It was getting worse by the minute, but it didn't matter at the moment. He sighed in the humid confines, finding he could move his hands. He lovingly caressed the inside walls, stroking them with his fingers as the wolfess moaned in pleasure outside. "If I wasn't as hungry as I am, I'd have played a bit more with you... But so the circle turns, and it's about your time to make the turn in the food chain."

He had no clue what she meant until the hole at the back of the navel widened and he was pushed through it, a whoosh of air closing it after him. He was no longer in the roomy bellybutton, but in a wet, hot, and airless space. The walls of this new room instantly started churning about him, the soft material caressing his body and coating it with yet another thick fluid. However, this burned for a short amount of time, letting him know where he was. It was the wolf's stomach, and she'd somehow eaten him through her bellybutton. Incredible... That was some feat.

He could feel the acids trickling down into his muscles, as his skin hadn't lasted long. They were dissolving, giving him less and less function in his arms. His lower half was more or less gone already, and he could feel himself sinking. The rest of his navel painfully dissolved, the raw wound not having been numbed by the chemical properties of the acid working on the skin in that area. He writhed around as it did so, until the pain subsided as the last of it was turned into a soupy mixture. However, the pounding in his skull had increased a hundred times if not more. It was getting to unbearable levels, and he struggled to stay alive, until only one thing came to his mind to scream with everything he had.

"LILAAAAAA!"

Then there was nothing.
