Batitude Written by Leo_Todrius Commissioned by Panzermaus

The Body Electric was a premiere night club unrivaled by any of its closest competitors. Its architecture was state of the art with transparent catwalks running around the second floor and an LCD covered bar that displayed mesmerizing patterns that reacted with the music being pumped out of the DJ's station. The air was full of the heavy thumping bass that seemed to be the heartbeat of the club and everyone was inspired to dance, twerk or drink. Normally the clubs in town operated off of a model of exclusivity, but the bouncers at the door had a different mandate. This was a place of inclusion and celebration - and Diego was having the time of his life.

The young man carefully ran a hand over his gelled black hair, the laser lights from the dance floor catching in the diamond bits in his earring studs. His upper lip was adorned by a soft black peach fuzz mustache and his shirt was little more than a tight weave net showing off his toned flesh. He'd been lucky to get in but he'd flaunted himself for anyone that cared to look. He had to admit, his ass looked fine in those tight jeans after all.

Diego passed the bar, winking at the girls alike, feeling quite confident about himself. However the night turned out, he felt like he was going to be pretty lucky. He started rounding the edge of the dance floor when the front door opened. Expecting more fresh faced twenty-something's ready to party, Diego was surprised by who walked in. The doorway filled with the tall, broad shouldered visage of an anthropomorphic bat.

He wore a deep green button up shirt with a black jacket over it and somewhat baggy slacks, but the hands extending from the sleeves were tipped with claws and covered with fur, and the back of his jacket was carefully tailored to allow large leathery wings to emerge. The most distinct quality of the newcomer, though, had to be his head. Tall, narrow pointed ears rose up, balanced by the almost horn like shaped nose on the front of his boxy muzzle. The structure of the bat's face seemed reminiscent of a fox of a squirrel, but it was so masculine. The fur at the back of his jaws was thicker than it needed to be, reminding Diego of sideburns, and the fur between his ears as long and faintly crested like a mohawk. A tinge of dark green nearly blended into the brownish black hair.

The bat strode into the club with a confidence in his steps, glancing around to survey the crowd. Diego only got a brief glimpse of those deep, crimson eyes before the bat was gone. Diego was left feeling almost hollow and empty, exposed to such a sight before it was gone. It had only been seven years since anthros started showing up in various cities around the world. Most had been human until one day they weren't. There were rumors and cults and think tanks devoted to the issue. Even so, they still weren't that common.

Diego made his way back to the bar and sat down on the stool, signaling for the bar tender to bring him a beer. He sighed gently and waited, turning back to look at the dance floor. What he saw instead were two deep pools of crimson red eyes. The color was so intense and true, vivid like blood. Every fleck on the irises were like islands lost in a sea. Diego instantly felt his guard lower, unable to look away. The bat slowly licked his lips.

"Hey, I'm Jace, nice to meet you." The bat murmured.

"I-I-I'm Diego..." Diego responded. Jace nodded gently.

"And where are you from, Diego?" Jace asked, leaning a bit closer.

"Florida..." Diego murmured in reply. The bat grinned, exposing many sharp fangs as he nodded.

"Florida's a good place, a place people can be comfortable... With their surroundings, with themselves." Jace commented. Diego nodded almost dumbly, still lost in those eyes. Jace leaned even closer, "Do you mind if I get a little more comfortable?" the bat asked.

"Go ahead, do whatever..." Diego replied, his mouth hanging slack. Jace grinned and got off of his bar stool and sat down on Diego's lap. Diego gasped at that, feeling the weight of another person on him, but most of all he was surprised by feeling the muscled ass cheeks settling down on either side of his cock - a cock that was growing more erect by the second. Jace merely grinned and started to shift his hips around, grinding down on Diego's cock.

"Oh god..." Diego moaned. Jace leaned in.

"God won't help you here, but I think you might be able to help me." Jace whispered.

"What do you want, I'll do anything..." Diego panted. Jace licked his lips.

"Fuck me... I want to feel your huge cock buried in my ass, I want to feel it growing inside of me..." Jace whispered. Diego moaned sharply.

"I... I never fucked a dude before, I..." Diego's words failed him. Jace merely grinned and reached behind himself, finding a carefully tailored zipper in the back of his pants. He rose off of Diego's lap just long enough to draw the zipper down along his taint, the fabric separating to show off a muscled, furry ass. Jace's hips were round and plump, his cheeks chiseled to perfection. With that barrier out of the way, he used a claw to cut into Diego's pants, splitting and tearing the fabric.

A tightly held erection popped out, still constrained in the bright red cotton underwear Diego had worn for the night. With a careful movement of his paw, Jace manipulated Diego's cock through the fly and into the open air.

There was a moment of panic cutting through Diego's euphoria. He was in a public place doing a lewd act. He'd get in trouble, he'd get kicked out, he'd get arrested. Diego looked around, surprise mounting. No one was acting like it was anything out of the ordinary. Jace closed his eyes and came down, feeling the human's hard, uncut cock pressing against the pucker of his ass.

Once more Diego gasped. Jace's hole was unlike anything he had ever experienced. Not only was it over swollen and rubbery, but the black ring almost seemed... hungry. It began drawing Diego in with reverse peristalsis, sucking on his cock as the bat lowered down. More and more muscles clamped down on the virgin shaft and began massaging and drawing it up deeper, almost painfully so. The bat's ass was like a vacuum pump, pulling on the fleshy invader in every direction.

Diego writhed on the bar stool, flailing against Jace. It was an interesting pairing given how thin and lithe Diego was. Jace had all the power, but he used it to get the twenty one year old to fuck him. Jace rode up and down on the shaft, feeling the whole process starting yet again... He loved this part, but then again he loved it all. The bat reached back and flicked up his tail enough that his clawed fingers could trace his scent glands, feeling the rubbery bumps as they secreted more of their fluid.

Yellowish clear liquid ran down from Jace's ass and along Diego's cock, soaking into his bush and dripping down the human's balls. Diego's balls began to tingle and throb as the flesh relaxed, growing looser and wider. His sack began to drop lower and lower, but as the musk penetrated the flesh, the balls inside began to swell and grow. Before long they were the size of kiwis and still stretching. Jace brought his musk soaked fingers up and spread them across Diego's lips. Diego inhaled sharply before he arched his back. The young human's cock throbbed and tingled more as much more blood rushed into the length.

"Can you feel it? The hormones surging through you? Filling you? I'm doing that to you..." Jace whispered, leaning in to nuzzle Diego's neck before licking it possessively. Diego moaned more, thrusting up into the ass. Jace only grinned wider, "You're already gay for me now... addicted to my ass, to my scent." Jace said with deep satisfaction, "But you're already different. By the time I'm done with you, your momma would never recognize you." He whispered.

Diego only moaned at that, fucking harder and harder as his egg sized balls slapped back and forth between the bat's furry ass and the human's legs. More than that, though, Diego's cock was being manipulated and shifted inside of the hot, wet bat ass. It was being stretched past fourteen inches, then sixteen, even eighteen. The young man fucked the bat as if his life depended on it, his eyes glazed over with lust.

Jace closed his red eyes and moaned happily, feeling the human's cock changing inside. The familiar base of the shaft was becoming unrecognizable as it swelled wider and thicker, rounding into two semi-spheres, but the head was changing too. It bloated and elongated, curved slightly and the sides began bulging out. Jace felt the changing human's cock anchored deep in his gut, but he couldn't immediately determine what he was becoming... not for long anyhow.

The changes that had started in Diego's cock were starting to spread through the rest of his body. His well tanned stomach was losing some of its color, drying out and hardening. His tight abs were being replaced with a tough leathery hide. The fleshy shell along his torso began spreading outwards, his soft cinnamon toned skin taking on a decidedly greenish hue. As Diego moaned and groaned, his teeth began to reshape. They softened at first before elongating into points, hardening more than ever before.

Diego's mouth was full of so many teeth it seemed hard to imagine that they all fit, but soon they didn't. Diego's jaw stretched outward, popping and shifting. His nose began to widen and broaden as his upper jaw pushed forward, his mouth expanding into a blunt muzzle. As the muzzle stretched, Diego's nose continued to disappear into the flesh until it was nothing but slits. His amateurish mustache seemed almost comical as it expanded along with the muzzle before disappearing.

"Oh fuck yes, my Florida boy, I know what you're becoming now..." Jace grinned wide, reaching up to pet Diego's cheek. As the bat watched, Diego's ears began to shrink and soften, the lobes getting ever smaller. As the skin was reabsorbed, the two diamond earrings toppled to the floor and rolled under the bar. Diego merely thrashed, fucking with ever increasing strength, filling the bat ass that massaged his two foot long cock.

Jace moaned louder and louder, bucking on the transforming cock like a cowboy. He continued to pet Diego's face as it changed; the muzzle kept elongating, the ears had melded into an almost reptilian membrane and his hair was becoming oily and rubbery, like the changes were trying to find a compromise. The leathery flesh covering Diego's stomach and chest crept up his throat and chin, disappearing into the muzzle as his skin tone kept growing greener and greener.

While the bar stool had been groaning under the weight for some time, there came an odd sound from behind the changing young man. The fabric of his pants had strained heavily, looking at first as if he'd taken a massive dump in it, but as the mass wriggled it became clearer. The pressure finally became too much before the seat of Diego's pants tore out and a massive muscled green tail swung out, slapping down the bar stool all the way to the floor.

Diego grunted and howled, his muzzle narrowing, his fangs snapping. The brown in his eyes shimmered before turning a vibrant honey yellow. His iris constricted and nearly closed off before turning into matched vertical slits. Jace looked into the eyes of his newest convert, panting and sweating, moaning hard.

"Fuck me my Florida Croc, fill me with your swampy spooge!" Jace commanded. Diego let out a rumbling roar and gave one massive thrust up into the bat, holding his cock there before it unleashed a hot, tepid stream of cum. The croc's semen flowed like hot pudding, filling the massaging ass. Jace's intestines drew the seed up deeper and deeper, sequestering it in his stomach like some kind of reverse feeding.

Jace slowly looked down at the beast mating him. In mere moments he'd turned a scrawny Latino Florida boy into a five hundred pound muscled croc - in public no less. Jace had to admit, his powers were getting stronger. He looked around at the patrons. The bartender was hot and sweaty, palming his groin while he poured drinks. Those dancing on the dance floor were now making out and humping lewdly... but none of them were aware of what had happened.

The bat kept grinding and shifting on Diego until at last the croc's seed slowed to a stop. The bat let out a half satisfied sigh before he slowly stood up. Diego's yellow eyes darted down, watching countless inches of cock slide out of Jace's ass before the plump blossom like head popped out, covered in syrupy goodness. Diego reached for his meat, pausing as clawed reptile hands moved at the whim of his brain, but the shock was short lived. Soon he was collecting the sperm off his rod and sucking his clawed fingers clean.

Jace looked at Diego for a moment before he reached back and zipped up the ass of his pants, letting out a small sigh. The crocodile had been a temporary fix, a snack. He still needed a real meal, something to truly satisfy him. The bat moved away from the bar, reaching up to scratch one of his ears as he headed for the bathroom, pushing through the door.

It had been almost four years since Jace had started his new life. He had been a kid that everyone overlooked and ignored, someone that slipped through the cracks. His life had gone off the rails and he lived off of meager earnings. He'd met a mysterious stranger that had promised to change his life for the better, to give him everything he wanted... and, in a way, the stranger had.

Jace had felt the fires of hell burning over his body, leaving him with the physique of a highly muscled, incredibly handsome and attractive bat. His muscles would make a body builder jealous, his ass was to die for, his wings impressive... but one thing had fallen short. Jace moved up to the urinal and unzipped his pants, drawing out a chubby but short two and a half inch shaft.

Whether it had been some form of curse or a price he had to pay for the change, Jace was never sure. He'd been almost painfully under-endowed himself, but he had the ability to turn any that fucked him into glorious new specimens of masculinity. It was almost as if he fed off their sperm and gained strength from it. As far as he knew, that was the only way he stayed alive. Since he'd changed, he hadn't stopped getting guys to fuck him senseless.

The internet called him a 'power bottom', but he simply considered himself to be hungry. His musk could sway anyone, his body could reshape them... and his stomach ached for a feast. Jace let out a soft sigh as he released his piss into the porcelain pit, his mind reeling as he tried to pick out the best target he could. He still couldn't control the changes, so to get his feast he'd either have to find the perfect guy, or try a buffet. Jace's red eyes lifted up, coming in line with a poster taped to the wall advertising an upcoming gay pride festival. There were pictures of guys dressed up, dressed down, and in all matter of lewd activities. A fang filled grin crossed Jace's face. Jace loved corrupting innocents, but they were all innocent to what he enjoyed. It was time to start collecting partners.

The air was full of confetti and the ground was covered with enough glitter to be a rainbow colored snow storm, but the air was electric. Trent avenue had always been considered the 'gay part of town' over the years, but in the last decade it had crossed all the way over to embracing it fully. The cross walks were rainbow colored, banners hung from every light post and there were even post cards about it being the gayest place in the state. It was the perfect place for a festival, but with that many people around it was bound that someone would be forgotten.

Off on one corner of the street a young man knelt on the ground, wearing knee pads and with his hands bound in leathery padded sacks. He was fit and trim, barely eighteen years old and wearing nothing but a leather thong. His blond hair was feathery and layered and two tall fake black dog ears stuck up from his hair. A thick leather collar ringed his lithe neck and a leash trailed down to lay limp on the ground.

Shae remained there, looking around at the passers by coming and going. His boyfriend had been acting as his master but had gone to check something out, though at this point it seemed more like check someone out. Shae let out a soft sigh and looked around himself before his eyes stopped. Gazing directly back at him were the blood red eyes of a most fantastic bat.

Jace grinned gently, stepping out of the alleyway. His hair had been worked up into a taller mohawk and the tips had been dyed red. His long, supple black tongue licked his lips as the wind blew across his fur. Normally he covered up his muscles, but given that it was a festival he'd worn nothing but zippered black rubber shorts. Jace's pectorals were so huge they were practically breasts, but the thick plump black nipples were pierced with dangling silver rings. His abs were stacked like slabs of meat and his shoulders were broad enough to not fit all the way through narrow doorways.

"Here puppy, puppy, puppy..." Jace called out. Shae inhaled sharply, feeling his will draining away. He moved over on all fours, his tongue hanging out of his mouth. Jace knelt down and reached out, scratching the human's chin. Shae closed his eyes and panted happily. Jace merely smirked, "What a good boy, a shame someone abandoned you... Hey, pup, wanna get to know me?" Jace asked, turning around to reveal that the back of his shorts had already been opened up and his large, plump, juicy bat pucker was already revealed.

Shae began sniffing and leaned in to Jace's ass as he always did when he was pretending to be a puppy, but as his nose buried between that furry cleft, his world changed. Shae took in a deep whiff and got all the scents of musk and manliness that Jace had to offer. His mind boiled and seethed with lust and need. His plump, rounded lips parted and his tongue emerged, pressing against that ring of muscle before sliding in. The taste was earthy and rich and Shae pressed his tongue in more and more, deeper until his face was smashed against the bat's hole.

Jace grinned and closed his eyes, panting hard and flexing his claws. His wings unfurled over the pup rimming him, spreading wide like a gargoyle ready to pounce. The tongue wriggled and snaked around inside him, but it too was being drawn in by the magical ass. It was stretched and widened, elongated. Even as Shae pulled it back, it kept lolling out... but the changes hardly stopped there. Shae's saliva was getting thicker, his teeth getting sharper and his nose was turning black as the flesh became spongier and began tilting up.

Shae kept going at it, panting harder and harder as drool dribbled down his chin. Where the drool rolled, thin soft blond fur began to push out of his chin, growing longer and softer. The pup tilted and turned his head, making out with the bat ass, grunting hard. His teeth started to get too big for his mouth, the lips pressing out around the bulging maw, but the change was filtering back further and further. It had been subtle at first, but Shae's ears were stretching into points. More blond fur started to grow out of his chest. The hair on his arms and legs was getting thicker too... and his bulge was raging.

As much as Jace loved getting rimmed, his hole was aching to be fucked. He took a deep breath and then dropped down onto all fours, presenting his ass to the pup. Shae lunged forward and started humping wildly, though the changing pup started to whimper as his thong kept his bulge from getting release. Jace dexterously lifted his hind leg and sliced at the thong with a claw. What sprung free was an aching, overly red cock.

Shae mounted the large bat despite the size difference, plunging his cock into that quivering saliva soaked hole. He rammed his cock in and pulled it back before grinding in again, humping like mad. Shae's abnormally long tongue hung out of the side of his mouth and down past his furry chin as he went at it, feeling better than he had his entire life. He'd always been a shy boy, a meek boy. He'd sucked his fair share of cock, but this felt different. He felt like a true dog going at it doggy style... and yet, somewhere deep down he knew that this bat was in control.

Each pump of the pup's cock into that ass changed it more and more. Shae's member was bloating wider and stretching longer, turning tomato red as the tip tapered more and more into a point. Even the texture changed, getting spongier and wetter. Shae pushed past a foot long, then a foot and a half. His balls were swelling too, but a strange change was spreading from his groin. What had been a thick, curly blond bush was draining of color and becoming softer. The hair was crisp white and covered his balls as well as creeping up his stomach.

Streaks of white spread into Shae's hair and a soft white velvet spread over his pointed ears as they started creeping up his head. Unlike in the night club, people were starting to notice. They looked at Shae with odd awe, getting boners and groping themselves. Shae blushed but white fur soon covered his cheeks as well. Not concentrating on keeping everyone oblivious, Jace began focusing on his ass instead.

Shae yelped as the muscles around his cock pulled him in to the hilt, trapping him against that ass. His cock felt like it was getting massaged, pulled, manipulated. It surged longer and longer and longer, growing fatter. Even the base was widening. Shae's eyes glazed over as it surpassed any normal biological function, becoming a core part of who he was now... He was a dog in heat, a dog that craved ass... and the changes only sped up from there.

The leather pads covering the boy's hands began to creak and grow before a series of pops came. Thick ivory claws punctured through the material, flexing and shifting before cutting through the leather. The pads nearly fell apart to reveal Shae's shorter, blunter fingers tipped with claws. Portions of his finger tips swelled outward, followed after by his palms. Shae tested his weight from side to side, but already his elbows and shoulders were changing. White fur swarmed over his arms and then down his back, creeping toward his ass until his tailbone started to swell.

At first the growth was a wriggling nub, but bone by bone it grew longer, stretching out with more flesh and fur. Shae's ass cheeks slowly pulled apart, stretching the scraps of the thong that remained before it fell off. The pucker that had been buried between his meat cheeks was soon exposed to open air, and like Jace, it started to swell and bulge outward. Even the flesh around the pucker changes as new ducts formed, the flesh shifting and morphing around the new scent glands.

After months of pretending to be a dog with useless front 'legs', Shae actually had them... and they were far from useless. He draped them over Jace's furry flanks as his hips kept at it, fucking the bat with his hyper cock. Shae thought less and less about his old life, his thoughts becoming simpler by the moment. Fuck, fuck, fuck, eat later, fuck some more, please his master. The simple thoughts ripped through a brain that was being buffeted around by a changing skull... and it was changing faster.

Those walking by could hear pops and snaps coming as Shae's skull restructured. His face was pushing out into a muzzle with a black spongy nose at the end of a white fur covered face. His ears reached the top of his head and his forehead had changed completely. No longer did he resemble a human at all, at least for the upper half of his body. Shae's tail was wagging wildly, pushing past two feet long. Even the boy's rib cage and shoulders had changed into that of a canine. Only his hind legs were left, but not for much longer.

The knee pads Shae had worn grew loose as his legs thinned down, replaced by longer muscle and bone and less mass. His exposed feet grew wider and wider, making them more squares than rectangles as claws pushed out of his toes. More paw pads emerged from his feet as the white fur of his legs spread down, covering everything else. More pops and snaps sounded as his knees and hips shifted... completing a very different sort of sight.

Jace was no longer getting fucked by a human teen pretending to be a dog. Shae had been turned into a hundred and fifty pound white shaggy mutt with a gigantic raging red cock. Shae's canine member started to bulge at the base, swelling wider and wider before the knot locked inside of the bat. Jace tried to pull forward but couldn't. The huge dog meat was lodged in his ass. Shae thrashed a few more times before he tilted his head back and let out a long, lingering howl.

The bat moaned with deep glee as he felt the engorged cock unleash hot semen deep into his ass. The dog kept pumping it until well after he ran out of energy and went limp on the bat. People continued to pass and look, confused by the haze of pheromones that Jace was pumping out. Some unable to cope with the display of beastial love seemed blind to it, while others seemed quite affectionate at the idea of man's best friend being such a friend.

Moments passed, then minutes before finally Shae's knot started to loosen. Jace reluctantly pulled off slowly, feeling so much meat slide out of his ass. When at last Shae's cock popped free, he turned around to look at his reaction. Shae sat upright, panting happily with vibrant blue eyes and a cock so long it stuck out between his front legs. Jace grinned and reached out, stroking the white dog's head before he picked up the leash.

"Come on boy, let's go find us some more fun." Jace said, starting to walk into the crowd. Shae followed after obediently, though part way in he hoisted up one of his hind legs - an odd instinct given that his cock was so long now, and let loose. Hot, tepid yellow piss came out with incredible force, sizzling as it hit the ground and released its alkaline like scent. Jace took a few sniffs as it went into the air, an eyebrow arching in surprise.

As the scent began wafting through the festival, there were slightly more beastial grunts around. People sloshing their beer cups started to groan in delight, feeling as though they were having a far better time. Bulges were forming all around, and more than a few of the festival patrons felt compelled to unzip and start pissing away their excess piss on any surface they could find. Jace moved to pet Shae again, realizing he had passed on more than just a little of his demonic influence on the dog.

****

The door to the apartment clicked open as Jace returned, though this time accompanied. Shae bounded into the apartment, dragging his leash behind him, panting happily before he froze, his white tail flicking up. His black nose sniffed around before he turned and pointed, his ears going flat against his head. Having never before been a dog owner, Jace moved into his apartment without concern, though as he passed a mirror he stopped.

The reflection in the glass was not of the overly muscled bat he had become, but a five foot seven, black haired nerd with rectangular glasses and a black and green sweatshirt. Jace looked at his former self only for a moment before he turned. Sitting in his computer chair was an obsidian skinned, red haired demon with a long trailing goatee that dropped all the way to his naked, jewel lined navel. The demon was covered with piercings; ladders of rings up his pointed ears, both eyebrows, a bull ring in his septum, countless lip piercings... and they all shifted as the demon grinned.

"Jace, you made a new friend... I'm so happy for you." The demon smiled happily. Jace stood there for a moment longer.

"Zyys, It's getting worse, the hunger..." Jace admitted.

"Part of that is my fault, I'm afraid. I've been needing you to store up for me." The demon said. He rose up on his cloven hooves and moved over, wrapping his hands around the bat boy, leaning in for a kiss. Jace was caught off guard, but even more so as he felt something welling up inside of him. Blue light began spilling out of his lips and the demon started gulping it down, taking it down his throat until the last drops were siphoned free. Zyys broke the kiss and licked his lips, the rings clattering against one another.

"What... What was that?" Jace asked. Zyys merely gave a fang filled grin.

"Some demons, they make a one time agreement... But me? I always prefer a payment plan of sorts." Zyys smiled, "For your wish, to be noticed and loved, to have power, to have sway? I need a regular investment. The innocence of those you take is quite delicious and it'll do me nicely."

"Not everyone I convert is innocent..." Jace replied. Zyys chuckled at that.

"What, like your pup here?" Zyys asked, flopping down on the couch, his long uncut cock dangling down to his knee. Jace's red eyes shot to the cock in a moment of envy. Zyys' red eyebrow rose at that, "Oh come on Jace, we both know you've always been a slut. You didn't need all this length."

"What am I supposed to do? What is the point of all this? I... I need answers." Jace replied. Zyys nodded gently at that.

"I suppose you do. You, personally? Keep using those sexy eyes to get guys to fuck you... Keep enjoying it as they change inside you, keep enjoying the carnal pleasure. The point of it all is to make this a more liberated, more free society." Zyys replied.

"And that's it, for the rest of time?" Jace asked. Zyys looked surprised at that before he slowly grinned.

"No, no it's not..." Zyys said softly, reaching up to stroke his goatee, "I can't keep siphoning off of you forever. The more innocence you take, the more your body will start to feed off of it. You'll grow darker and more powerful until you can do things you never imagined possible. You could look across a coffee shop and give a straight guy a gay horse dick with just a wink. You'll become a demon like me, a king in this new land we're making."

"Why... Why me?" Jace whispered. Zyys slowly stood back up and moved over to the gay bat. A clawed black hand came up to pet the furry cheek.

"It's the lonely boys that can scream the loudest, to wake up the entire city in the middle of the night. You have the most to grow, you had the loudest wish... and I'll give it all to you." Zyys said. Jace closed his eyes briefly and when he opened them, the demon was gone. The apartment was empty once more... other than the white furry dog beast curling up on the floor before passing out. Jace closed his eyes and thought about it all once again.

The Oak Street coffee shop was quiet so late at night, but thanks to its proximity to the university it was open all night for those late night caffeine rushes. Jace had sat down in the farthest corner of the café with his back to one window, his eyes facing another. The orange tea in his cup was growing cold from how long he had been sitting there. Once more he'd dressed up, covering his huge muscles with work wear, his mohawk flattened again. He looked at the dew freezing on the cars outside moment by moment, thinking about all the times he'd walked home in the middle of the night.

Jace's solitude was disrupted as another cup was set down at his table. Jace turned, looking at the barista. The young man was in his mid twenties. His hair had been bleached and then dyed purple, but the short kept beard he had was still a dark black. He was lanky, the thin but tall kind of body that Jace knew would grow monumentally huge with his power... but it was a power that he wasn't putting out.

"I... didn't order anything else." Jace murmured. The barista cracked a soft grin.

"You didn't have to. It's slow going right now, too quiet... You looked like you could use something else to think about." The barista said, smiling more, "Compliments of the house." He said before he turned and moved back to resume cleaning the other tables. Jace sat there for a long moment, stunned. The human had noticed him on his own, without magic or hypnotism, without influence. Jace's demonic ass began to quiver with overwhelming hunger, wanting to devour the barista's cock and milk it of all it had to share... but Jace, for once, wanted something else. "Excuse me, could I... trouble you for a moment?" Jace asked. The barista grinned and came back over, tucking his cleaning cloth into his apron.

"Sure, what is it?" he asked. Jace reached up and caught the barista's scruffy chin with a clawed finger and drew it down into a kiss. The barista was surprised, but tilted his head to make it work against those leathery lips and furry muzzle. Their lips parted and danced together for a long moment. Jace leaned more and more into the kiss, his tongue filling the young man's mouth.

Ever so slowly Jace's large bat wings began unfolding, arching out and curling around. One draped around the barista's shoulder and the other wrapped around that until they were enclosed in a leathery barrier. Jace kept the kiss going for several more moments before finally the kiss broke. The barista panted hard, gasping for air, moaning happily. What Jace noticed most, though, was the single set of fangs the barista now sported in his grin.

"Wow, if I'd known that free drinks could get me that, I would have started giving them out a long time ago." He smirked.

"What's your name?" Jace asked directly. The barista blushed a bit.

"I'm Osias, most people call me Oz." The barista replied. Jace was rather surprised at that but smiled more, running his clawed paw through the barista's purple hair.

"Oz, what would you say if I could change your life forever?" Jace asked. Osias smirked softly at that.

"I'd say I like a confident man, one that can make me feel safe... and I'd ask what you're doing at three in the morning when I get off?" Oz asked.

"I'll be walking a new friend home to make sure he gets there safely." Jace replied. The barista grinned happily at that and kissed Jace's forehead before he moved off to finish bussing the tables. Jace sat there in shock, Zyys' words echoing in his head. It seemed he would have to make another deal with the demon, a deal to keep Osias' innocence and intellect intact... but there was no telling what that would cost him. Still, for the first time in his life, Jace felt as if he had hope for a real boyfriend, one that liked him without the use of magic. Jace felt amazing.
