Chapter 15: You'll Always Have Me
The morning Eno was finally released with a sore and aching buttocks from his prison of ropes, he asked eagerly after Zaldon's friends and if they had already left. When Zaldon demanded to know why, Eno confessed with lowered eyes that he wanted to live in the summer village, that it had nothing to do with Aliona. Zaldon made him swear to never touch Aliona again and further warned that if he found out Eno had done anything to harm her, he would come after Eno and personally make him sorry. He then told Eno that his friends had left only minutes ago, and giving Eno a hard slap across the face, had sent him on his way with the warning, his face now smarting as well as his anus.
But Eno did not care! So long as he could be near that handsome striped wolf. Loryn was his name. He would never forget the way Loryn had kissed him that night, had caressed his mane, and how those eyes like dark mirrors had looked upon him with love! He had wanted to be in Loryn's arms so badly, but the ropes had made it quite impossible, and realizing this, Eno had started to sob. Loryn, taking pity on Eno, had then removed his gag and proceeded to close his mouth over his. Eno felt a thrill of pleasure when Loryn's tongue filled him, caressing his own tongue, licking his lips, pulling cries of ecstasy up from him. They kissed like that for a long time until Loryn suddenly pulled away, declaring that "Kira" was going to kill him. His wife did not care if he shared his body with other wolves, but his heart was another thing. Eno said he would never tell, but a forlorn Loryn had shaken his head miserably and hurried away.
Now Eno was determined to go after Loryn, to find him and be near him always. He hurried through the village gates and ignored the guards when they chuckled after him. They, along with everyone else in the village, had taken part in his torture and rape. On his way to the gates, Eno had to endure insults hurled at him as well as garbage, brooms paddled at his smarting ass, and shoves from other wolves his age. His cousin Lynny even emerged from his hut to give Eno a smack on the head. And Eno, though he was crying bitterly, found that he enjoyed this abuse as heartily as he'd enjoyed Loryn's smacking and the raping of his anus. Why did he delight so much in pain? In the pain of others? He did not know. He only knew that his only hope of happiness now was to know Loryn's arms, and if Loryn turned him away, well . . . he could always become a lone wolf.
Eno hurried through the village gates, the jeers of the villagers behind him, and was happy to see Zaldon's friends were only just disappearing into the pine forest. He ran after them and gave a shout, and they halted. When he reached them, he was startled to come face to face with Aliona's husband, that fierce black wolf with the terrible green eyes. Eno halted, fear tingling through him, as the black wolf thrust his spear under Eno chin.
"What do you want, pup?" the black wolf growled. "You'd think you'd have the sense by now to stay the hell away from my wife!"
"Kel!" barked a voice, and Eno was relieved to see Loryn come forward, smiling his amused smile. "He's come to see me, Kel, this has nothing to do with Aliona. You three go on. I'll catch up."
Kel looked as if he didn't want to back down, but the other male, a dark gray one, put his paw on Kel's shoulder and he grudgingly withdrew. The other three wolves started into the trees again. Kel put his arm around Aliona but kept glowering back at Eno. Eno saw him glance inquisitively at Loryn, but at that moment, his wife turned his head to her by his chin and kissed him on the lips, and he looked back no more.
Loryn watched his friends disappear into the trees before he turned again to Eno.
"Why have you followed me? Shouldn't you be at home getting spanked by Zaldon?"
"I can't go back there," Eno said breathlessly. "Everyone hates me. I'm an outcast for what I've done. And besides . . ." Eno moved closer to Loryn, his eyes glazed over with lust. "I want to be with you!"
Loryn sighed miserably. "Look, pup. I already told you --"
"That your wife will be angry if you fall in love with me. That you don't love males, you fuck them. That I was just your plaything last night. But the truth is, I want to be your plaything, Loryn! I want you to -- to smack me and spank me and fuck me hard! No one has ever done to me what you did to me. No one has ever made me feel so good!"
Loryn stared at Eno in blank astonishment.
"I love you!" Eno insisted. "And you love me too or you never could have kissed me so deeply. You never could have looked at me that way!"
After a long moment of staring into the eager young wolf's eyes, Loryn cupped his face and shook his head as if he was helpless, "What am I going to do with you?"
Eno's lips spread slowly into a smile. "Punish me."
Loryn grinned. "That I can do!" Without warning, he flipped Eno onto his shoulder, gave his buttocks a resounding slap, and carried him off to catch up with the others.
Later that night, they camped on the cliff. Aliona, Eno, and Yzlo lay asleep in their sleeping furs, but Kel and Loryn stayed up on watch. Kel could not stop glancing curiously at Loryn. He still couldn't quite believe that Loryn had pretty much carried that foul young wolf back to the group with the explanation that the pup was just too damn irresistible to leave standing there. No one had questioned him, but Yzlo had glowered and shaken his head, knowing that if Kira ever found out, she'd be heartbroken. Kel knew this too, and so did Aliona, but no one said it. Now, sitting there watching Loryn as he fought back his worries, Kel was suddenly very glad that he had such an accepting wife. Aliona did not mind that Kel had feelings for Zaldon and had readily accepted that he had needs she could not satisfy, but Kira was not like that -- at least not as far as love went. Kira didn't care if Loryn slept with males, but if he loved them? She would be jealous, furiously jealous. And Kel was also grateful that she hadn't a clue about his and Loryn's feelings for each other. Because of their past rendezvous under the waterfall, Kira might have left Loryn.
"Why did you do it?" Kel burst at last. He stared at Loryn, waiting for an explanation.
Loryn gave a half smile. "It's not like I did it on purpose, Kel. I believe in fucking males, not --"
"Loving them, I know," said Kel, nodding.
Loryn grinned. "Except for you." He reached over and pinched Kel's cheek, and Kel batted him off playfully.
"I don't know what's happening to me," Loryn whispered, his dark eyes now serious as they frowned into the fire. "I went out there to rape that little pup, to play with him. I think you all knew I meant to. I didn't hide it. But then he looked at me with those big, lovey-dovey eyes. You know how it is when males are virginal -- well, you know how you were anyway. I'm sure you looked at Zaldon like that when he took you up here on these cliffs."
Kel nodded, looking uncomfortable.
"And sure," went on Loryn, "I'd been looked at that way before by virgin asses I'd just broken, but for some reason, this time . . . was different."
"So you finally learned to love a male rather than just fuck him," said Kel. "I'm proud of you, Loryn!" he teased, giving Loryn a little shove.
"And you finally learned to let a male fuck you rather than just bat your eyes and be a tease!" returned Loryn. "I still remember you under the waterfall, so embarrassed that I wanted to fuck you in the ass. You would put your little tail between your legs and look frightened and it just made me want you more. And then when I hugged you and kissed you, you just melted in my arms, sweet little thing that you were."
"Please don't go on with this . . ." moaned Kel, looking so uncomfortable that Loryn knew he was the verge of a hard-on.
"So . . . did you really let that big strapping brother of Zaldon's fuck you? God, I bet that was hot."
Kel flushed and couldn't look at Loryn.
"Now that you're out of the closet, you won't be able to keep the males off you, Kel. I think I'm going to get jealous."
Kel shook his head darkly. "I'm not out of the closet," he said, tossing a twig in the flames.
Loryn looked around at him quickly, his ears pricking forward.
"I can't go to the tail chaser meetings without expecting to meet Zaldon," Kel explained forlornly. "It wouldn't be the same."
Seeing his friend's misery, Loryn scooted closer to Kel, and putting his arm around him, he dropped his forehead against his and kissed him on the cheek. "You'll always have me, Kel. And you can pretend I'm Zaldon. I don't mind."
Kel laughed.
Loryn moved to kiss Kel again, this time on the lips, wet and slow. Kel shuddered. He hadn't been kissed by Loryn this way in a long time, and he'd forgotten how deep, how loving Loryn's kisses had always been. He kissed Loryn back just as deeply and didn't resist when Loryn started stroking his cock until it was hard and pumping. Soon Loryn had Kel in his arms and was kissing his neck, and Kel thought he'd burst when Loryn slipped a finger in his anus.
"Did you miss doing this with me?" Loryn asked between kisses.
Kel admitted that he had. He and Loryn hadn't touched each other since before the mating season almost a year ago. With Kel's growing determination to win Aliona, they had drifted apart, and afterwards, it seemed once they were married and fulltime warriors, they were too absorbed in their new lives for each other. But now, being touched so sweetly and so gently by Loryn beside the crackling fire, Kel felt the old feelings of love and desire washing over him.
"Are you going to let me?" Loryn whispered in Kel's ear. He slipped his fingers in Kel's anus and spread them to indicate.
Kel stifled a little cry as his sore anus was stretched but whispered, "Yes!"
Loryn laughed softly. "And it only took all these years."
Kel let Loryn guide him to his paws and knees on the ground, and seconds later, he felt Loryn hunched over him. His buttocks were spread, and then Loryn plunged inside. Kel gritted his teeth. He never imagined Loryn could be so big and so thick. He felt as if he was being held wide open. His entire body went tense, and Loryn, as if he sensed Kel's pain, leaned over Kel and took him in his arms and kissed him.
"I don't know why," panted Loryn in Kel's ear, "I've always been so afraid to fall in love with a male when all this time . . . I've been in love with you. I was just as afraid of love as you were afraid of dick, and yet you never stopped me from touching you under the waterfall and I never stopped myself from loving you."
Kel squeezed his eyes shut and whimpered at a sudden deep thrust, and Loryn went slower, thrusting himself rhythmically against Kel.
Kel heard Loryn laugh softly in his ear. "What a pair we make, huh?"
"Loryn?"
"Hmm?"
"What are you going to do? If Kira finds out?"
"I don't know. I guess if she wants to leave me . . . I'll have to let her go. I can't pretend to be something I'm not, Kel, and I can't -- I can't keep denying what I feel. I love you -- I've always loved you -- and I think I'm starting to fall for Eno. Eno, my big-little plaything . . ." He laughed again, and closing his eyes, he thrust himself deeper into Kel.
"It's a blessing and a curse, isn't it?" Kel whispered, closing his eyes happily when Loryn closed an arm around his chest. "Loving both males and females. It's a blessing and a curse . . ."
"I think we carry it well. God, you're tight . . ."
Loryn straightened up and Kel knew when the striped wolf grabbed his cock and stroked it that he was about to come. Kel gasped, grunting at Loryn's fast fondling. He had never been stroked this roughly or this quickly and he liked it. It made his fur shiver, made his chest heave as his body sought to keep up with the orgasm that was steadily building in his cock. When Kel finally stifled a cry and spurted over Loryn's fingers, Loryn cried out softly as well and withdrew. They collapsed together on the earth, for their sleeping furs were already occupied by their other respective lovers. Breathless and smiling, Loryn rolled over on top of Kel and smoothed his mane back from his green eyes. Then he kissed Kel on the mouth and all over his face and whispered that he loved him.
"Always have," Loryn said, his paw on Kel's cheek, "always will."
They kissed again.
"Don't ever leave me, Loryn," Kel whispered.
Loryn's mischievous eyes softened as he whispered, "I won't."
