Chapter 24: I Will Always Love You

Loryn could not stop thinking of Lea. Even when they entered the sun village and he suddenly found himself surrounded by all this gorgeous male flesh. For the first time in his life, he looked past cock and ass and his eyes searched hungrily for any sign of his daughter.

It was evening, the very cool of the day, and the breeze sweeping off the sea felt wonderful. Kilyan could not stop looking for Lea either, but he could not hold back his awe. Males kissing other males in public -- even females kissing other females. Kilyan had nothing against same sex love -- after witnessing his father's silhouette wrestling with Loryn the other night, he had finally realized, unbeknownst to the others, that he was traveling with three tail chasers. But the way Kilyan felt about his father and Loryn and the sorcerer Zaldon had not changed. He still looked up to them as strong, honest, and good males who, if he was lucky, he would one day grow up to be like.

No, Kilyan was just in shock: in the summer village, same sex love was not to be on public display or else the perpetrators faced punishment. But here in the sun village? Same sex love was very out in the open, and Kilyan was shocked to receive a hearty clap on his ass from a young male his own age as they were passing through the streets. He flushed and could barely stand it when Loryn laughed.

"Looks like you're just a piece of meat here, young one," said Loryn, clapping an affectionate paw on Kilyan's shoulder. "Hell, don't worry: if anyone comes on to you, I'll just bend over in front of you and their dick will go in my ass instead."

Kel laughed. "All right, Loryn, that's enough," he said, ruffling Kilyan's ears when the young wolf looked uncomfortable. "Zaldon, did you know it was like this?" Kel wondered.

Zaldon was walking among the group and hadn't said a word.

They passed into the sunny market where wolves were haggling over fish prices. Children ran back and forth, leaping and ducking under tables. Females carried little pups on their hips and bought them sugary sweets, and male lovers walked with their arms about each other, even stopping every now and then to kiss. But the market was closing. It wasn't quite as crowded as it could have been, and Kilyan could see whole families retreating: males and females walking paw in paw with their pups riding on their shoulders. And there was so much laughter on the air. The perfect ending to the perfect day.

Zaldon didn't really answer Kel. He nodded his head at a corner of the market and said, "Let's go rest. I'm bushed."

They followed Zaldon to a row of picnic tables under a cloth awning. A booth was here and wolves who sat at the tables there ordered food from the booth before they sat together and ate. Male wolves were everywhere with their lovers, sharing wooden cups with straws and caressing each other's faces. Kilyan still couldn't quite believe it and stared wide-eyed.

"Get used to it, pup," Zaldon told Kilyan fondly, "as we might be looking for Lea for a very long time. As you can see, the sun village is huge."

"God, I hope she's here," Loryn said, his eyes darting miserably over the crowds, the happy faces. Kel saw Loryn go very still, and then the striped wolf whispered with the old mischievous smile, "Well, well, well."

Kel followed Loryn's gaze. A tall silver wolf was one of the last customers in the market. He walked serenely through the running children, a packet of purchased goods under one of his bulging arms. He was beautiful. Kel could find no other word for him. His silvery fur practically glowed, and though he was more than likely well past his first mating season, this male had a fresh, young face. And how powerful his body, how sculpted. Kel could not take his eyes off those flexing buttocks, those bulging calves. And for such a big, beautiful thing he walked so gracefully! That tail curled slightly at the tip, those big shoulders back, that long mane flowing every now and then in the wind. He turned and picked something up that a mother had dropped, and as he was bending over, they all had full view of his pink anus. Kel thought he saw Loryn's eye twitch when this happened and he understood why: those tight, muscular buttocks spreading open as the wolf strained to catch the drifting object was more than he himself could bear. Then the silver wolf straightened up and gave the object back to the mother with such a soft, such a gentle look, and the mother took it back with a smile.

And now the silver wolf was moving in his slow, graceful walk languidly in their direction, stopping sometimes at different stalls, snatches of his mane drifting across his eyes in the breeze. He was closer now, and Kel could see that he had the most beautiful lavender blue eyes! And those thick lashes framing them were to die for. And that dreamy expression on his face: so gentle, so serene. He came even closer now, this hulking silver wolf, and Kel could not stop his eyes darting to that cock and balls. He shivered. Such utter perfection, such a male specimen of beauty -- then he caught himself and realized that he and Loryn and even Zaldon had been staring openly for five minutes straight while Kilyan gazed at them in amazement. Kel loudly cleared his throat and the spell was broken.

"Good god," said Loryn, turning back around, but he glanced over his shoulder again at the silver male, who was at a stall inspecting vegetables, the package still under his arm. "When we find Lea, I might just stay here to live."

"You're married, Loryn," said Kel firmly.

"Am I?" said Loryn bitterly. "Kira's not speaking to me, Kel. Remember?"

"He's coming over here," said Zaldon, and to Kel's amazement, Zaldon sounded nervous!

Kel was glaring at Zaldon when the silver male started by, not even looking at them. Kel was shocked when Loryn casually slipped his foot from under the table. The silver wolf tripped just like that. His package flew from his arm and scattered all over the ground: tools for gutting fish. The silver wolf, meanwhile, slammed right into Zaldon. He might as well have fallen in his lap. Loryn found it all delightfully funny: the red look on Zaldon's face, the stammering of Zaldon and the silver wolf as they scrambled out of each other's arms, Zaldon's flustered apologizing as his hulking body scurried to gather up all the silver wolf's dropped tools. The silver wolf kept telling him it was okay, that he had it, and they were both on their knees shoving everything back in the package when they grabbed the same fishing tool and their paws touched. The silver wolf colored up at once and Zaldon could not stop staring into his eyes.

"Are you two going to fuck or say hello?" Loryn teased.

Loryn may have found it all very funny, but Kel was tense and fuming. When Zaldon and the silver wolf only stared lost in each other's eyes, Kel burst out angrily, "Zaldon!"

Zaldon blinked as if he'd come back to earth. He moved clumsily to get back in his seat on the bench and could not look at anyone.

"Er, thank you," the silver wolf said to Zaldon, and they could all see he was just as embarrassed. But he seemed determined not to show it, even if he was blushing. He looked them all in the face and gave them a friendly smile. "New to the sun village?"

"How did you guess, Lavender Eyes?" said Loryn, cocking a provocative eyebrow.

"Loryn!" warned Kel under his breath.

The silver wolf only laughed, and Kel found himself loving the way his pale lashes fluttered when he laughed, damn him.

"Oh, no, I don't mind. That's actually my nickname. So what are you in town for?" He shifted the package under his arm, and they knew he was trying to act casual, as if he hadn't just fallen in Zaldon's lap.

"We're looking for a female," said Kilyan eagerly.

"Well, there are plenty of those around here," said the silver wolf with a laugh. "Do you know anyone here?"

"We know you," teased Loryn. Then he lifted his eyebrows, his chin perched on his fist, and said, "Right, Zaldon?"

Zaldon's white fur colored up and he kept his eyes fixed on the table.

The silver wolf was coloring up too, but he said in spite of himself, "That you do. Well, I've got a pretty roomy hut up the street a little way. You're welcome to rest there. Though I have to be getting to my sister's soon. I promised her I'd come over for dinner and she has a guest."

"Well, then what are we waiting for?" Loryn said, ignoring Kel when his ears went flat on his head in his anger. He rose from the table and winked at the silver wolf. "Lead the way!"

The silver wolf told them his name was Julyan and that he was a warrior of the sun village, a part of the home patrol. He had just been relieved some hours ago. He led the way up the streets as dusk was still spilling pink over the sky -- streets that were lined on either side with palm trees. Kel was incensed when Zaldon walked at Julyan's side. Zaldon and the silver wolf fell into easy conversation. Kel could hear Zaldon telling Julyan how he'd been to the sun village before when he was a pup. Julyan wondered if they'd ever met, but Zaldon said that he definitely would have remembered Julyan. That last remark made Kel grind his teeth. And then Kilyan joined in the conversation, asking all sorts of eager questions about the sun village: what a palm tree was and why did they live in such strange huts and did they ever cross the sea in their fishing boats? And Julyan laughingly answered every question that Kilyan asked. Kel was clenching his fists after five minutes of this conversation and he felt a twinge of embarrassment when Loryn grinned at him. He looked away.

"Shut up, Loryn," Kel snapped before Loryn could say anything.

Loryn kept grinning. "Somebody's jeeeealous," he sang, giving Kel's ear a playful flick.

Kel ignored Loryn and heard him heave a long sigh.

"My god, he's pretty."

"He's too pretty for a male," said Kel darkly, averting his eyes.

Loryn snorted. "Pretty but powerful. Did you see that cock? Damn. How could you not see it? Zaldon saw it. I think Zaldon felt it. Julyan fell in his lap, after all --"

"Yeah, thanks to you!" Kel snapped.

Loryn grinned and shrugged. "How the hell was I supposed to guess he would fall in Zaldon's lap? I just wanted to see him fall. I wanted to see that big dick flapping and those sweet lips gasping."

Kel ground his teeth and closed his eyes. He felt Loryn's paw on his shoulder and wanted to jerk himself free of this affectionate touch, but he found himself relaxing instead.

"Kel, don't ruin this for Zaldon. Look at them! They look so cute together."

Kel looked and had to admit that Julyan and Zaldon already looked like lovers. When they reached the door of Julyan's hut, Julyan dropped something from the package and Zaldon picked it up for him, gazing at him again with warm affection. Julyan paused as if he was startled, but his lips spread slowly into a smile as he took the object from Zaldon, then he led them into the hut.

Kel and Loryn did not enter right away. They paused outside on the brick steps, and Kel sighed and bowed his head. He was grateful when Loryn stroked his mane and cupped his face, his thumb tracing under Kel's lowered lashes.

"I know it's difficult," Loryn said. "But sooner or later, you're going to have to let Zaldon go."

Kel nodded miserably and they entered the hut.

Julyan hadn't been lying when he said his hut was roomy: there were at least three extra bedrooms. And they realized Julyan's hut seemed so vast and empty because he hadn't a lover: he hadn't a male lover, he hadn't a wife, he hadn't any children. He was obviously in his thirties, but he lived alone. With there being three extra rooms, two of them would have their own room, but the other two would have to share. Kel announced at once that he was sharing with his son: he was too angry to share a bedroom with Zaldon and he didn't feel like being teased by Loryn. This seemed to suit Julyan just fine, who announced that he had to be getting to his sister's now but he would be back in some hours.

Kel didn't want Julyan to come back and glowered after him as he went through the door, but he saw the guilty pang on Zaldon's face and only turned abruptly and entered his bedroom.

Later that night after Julyan had returned, Kel could not sleep. While Kilyan lay asleep in the bed near his father, Kel lay awake on his back and stared at the ceiling. Was he being selfish by trying to keep Zaldon to himself? Of course he was. He had a wife and a family while Zaldon had nothing, and expecting Zaldon to remain that way, to not reach for this opportunity to be happy had been utterly selfish of him. But he couldn't help but feel jealous every time Zaldon's dark eyes traced over Julyan's body -- Julyan, who was too damned beautiful to be true. Did Zaldon find Julyan more desirable than Kel? Kel rolled on his side and slammed his fist in the pillows. He was being vain and stupid. It was time to let go! He had seen Zaldon again and now that door needed to close for them both, now he needed to just go home to his Aliona and accept the fact that he could not have both Zaldon and his wife. It was time to move on.

Kel suddenly decided to tell Zaldon these things. And he knew with a sad little pang that Zaldon would agree. Zaldon wanted Julyan! That was obvious. And Zaldon was tired of being miserable. Kel didn't want him to be miserable anymore either . . .

Kel slipped through the curtain of the room he shared with Kilyan and passed up the shadowy hall, but something made him pause. A noise. And it was coming from Julyan's room. Kel crept up the hall, his heart pounding in his chest. He already knew what he was hearing when he lifted the curtain very carefully with his finger and peered inside. Just as he feared: Zaldon and Julyan were sitting on Julyan's bed. Julyan was in Zaldon's lap and they were kissing! Kel gasped angrily, and to his horror, they heard him! They froze and looked slowly around and Julyan blushed crimson. Kel backed quickly from the curtain but he couldn't move. He saw Zaldon part the curtain and turned away. He was shaking and he knew why: his dick was hard.

"Kel . . ."

"Don't say anything!" Kel hissed, squeezing his eyes shut.

But then he felt Zaldon come up behind him, and suddenly, Zaldon's hard chest was pressed to his back, Zaldon's big paws were running up and down his shoulders, and Zaldon's kisses were on his neck. Kel closed his eyes. Why was he letting this happen? But the kisses felt so good he brushed the thought aside, and he realized he was being kissed on the lips! But Zaldon was still behind him, still kissing neck -- who --? Kel trembled. It was Julyan! Julyan ran his paws up and down Kel's chest, and his lips pulled at Kel so tenderly, so carefully, and yet so hungrily. And then Julyan's tongue forced Kel's mouth open and he received it -- in spite of his anger, in spite of everything, his paws were closing on Julyan's buttocks -- those hard, high, firm muscles -- and he jerked Julyan's hips to his own with a hunger that startled the bigger wolf.

Then Kel felt Zaldon's hard dick prodding him and Zaldon's big paws were on Kel's hips, even as he was licking his neck. Right here in the hallway? God, no! But Julyan lifted Kel by his buttocks without hesitating, spreading them wide open for Zaldon's entry, and Kel wrapped his legs around Julyan at once, relishing in the fact that their dicks were touching, rubbing against each other. Zaldon crammed himself inside, and still kissing Julyan, Kel groaned. Julyan put his arms around Kel's neck and kissed him deeply now, fervently, moaning in appreciation as he worked his tongue against him, traced his tongue on the inside of Kel's lips. Zaldon moved against Kel, drilling himself slowly inside, licking Kel's neck and kissing it and gasping and sighing in his ear.

Suspended between these two big wolves, Kel slouched in ecstasy. Julyan was stroking Kel's dick now, his fingers so skillfully caressing, his kisses wilder. Kel melted into Julyan's kisses, whimpering as the passion in his dick steadily climaxed. He couldn't believe this was happening -- that they were both licking him and fucking him and caressing him. He had never hoped for such pleasure, and he yielded to them both as they gave it to him as eagerly as if they'd been waiting for him to pull back that curtain!

"He really is the loveliest thing," Kel heard Julyan whisper.

Kel was slumped forward in Julyan's arms, his passion have spurted over the silver wolf's paw. His arms were around Julyan's neck and he was panting, his eyes were closed, and Julyan was kissing his cheek. Julyan was stroking his mane.

"Yes, he really is," Kel heard Zaldon agree, and his heart warmed when he felt Zaldon's kisses on his neck.

Kel was so weak from his ecstasy, and he felt ashamed when Julyan expressed his desire to carry him. He'd never imagined in his life that something so overwhelming could happen to him. These two big, bulking males touching him so tenderly and kissing him -- and that slow, deliberate way in which Zaldon had fucked him. It had all been too much. He didn't even argue when Julyan gathered him in his arms and carried him into the bedroom. God, Julyan smelled so good -- he smelled as soft and silky as a female.

Julyan laid Kel on the bed, and Kel lay there with his eyes closed, trying to catch his breath, trying to make himself believe that this had just happened. He felt the sleeping furs shifting and he realized with a leap of his heart that Julyan and Zaldon had laid down either side him. He was trapped between these two big males. And they did not pause in their advances. Julyan's paw smoothed down Kel's chest and went straight for his cock. Kel was embarrassed when Julyan whispered that he liked Kel's cock, the feel of it, the thickness of it. And then Zaldon whispered, "Oh, Kel . . ." in Kel's ear and started kissing him on the mouth. Kel moaned under Zaldon's kisses, and then he realized with a shudder that Julyan had closed his mouth over his cock! He moaned low and long now. Julyan's mouth was deliciously wet and hot and his tongue so skilled as it flexed against him, tasting him, pulling him, slobbering over him. Julyan sucked Kel in long, wet strokes, even playing with Kel's balls, and Kel was beside himself when Julyan pulled back and licked lightly at the head of his cock. All the while, Zaldon was rubbing at Kel's chest, Zaldon was kissing him all over his neck and his ears and his face passionately, ceaselessly, and Zaldon was moaning his name. Kel could take it no more, this kissing, this sucking and caressing. He came in Julyan's mouth, his cries stifled behind Zaldon's kiss. He heard Julyan gulping, and then his thighs were being kissed and licked with hot, loving laps, and Zaldon's paw was reaching under, clutching Kel's buttocks.

"I want this," Zaldon whispered, squeezing Kel's ass. Kel shivered when Zaldon gave his cheek a hot lick and then he whispered in his ear, "Kel, I want inside you!"

Julyan was leaning over them both now, smiling down at them, and then he kissed Kel on his lips too. Then Julyan lay beside Kel again, his back to him, and Kel realized what Julyan was waiting for! He looked at those tight silver buttocks and a terrible hunger made his cock swell upright. He rolled onto his side at once, spread Julyan's ass cheeks, and slid himself in. Julyan choked out a cry of ecstasy, his entire body going stiff, and Kel could not believe the tightness of these hot, squirming walls. He drove himself in again, his dick throbbing painfully now, and suddenly, he felt Zaldon's paw on his hip, and then Zaldon was inside of him. They lay on their sides together, Zaldon inside of Kel, Kel inside of Julyan, and their hips moved in one slow rhythmic motion, their cries and groans and gasps a low hum in the still room.

The next morning, Kel awoke to find himself lying between the two. His head was on Zaldon's chest, and Zaldon was holding him in his sleep, Zaldon was smiling. Julyan also had his big arm thrown around Kel and his legs were tangled with Kel's lovingly. Kel lay there feeling so warm and content and wishing he could take them both home with him. They were big and strong and smelled so good. He imagined his Aliona gasping shrilly as he took her while Zaldon took him. God, if only that had happened last night.

Julyan blinked and slowly awoke and announced sleepily that he'd prepare breakfast that morning for his guests. Kel was a little startled when Julyan clapped him fondly on the buttocks, then gave him a quick kiss on the cheek and left the room.

Zaldon awoke with a groan when Kel kissed him. He smiled down at Kel, then yawned.

"Why?" Kel asked without preamble, his ears pricking forward.

Zaldon closed his eyes and snuggled closer to Kel. "Hmm?"

"Why did it happen?" Kel asked blankly. "I mean, why did the two of you make love to me!"

Zaldon chuckled, his eyes still closed, and he kissed Kel on the lips and whispered against him, "Because we wanted to, Kel."

Kel felt his heart flutter to hear this. Had Julyan wanted him? He couldn't believe it. Such a beautiful male as Julyan -- had wanted him? Zaldon seemed to guess that Kel was shocked because he chuckled again.

"We did some talking last night, Julyan and I. I told him about my wives over in the winter village, that I was here helping a friend. I told him about us. But I think I want to be with him, Kel. I think I want to live my life with him, to just give it a try. He wanted to too, but he didn't want to take me away from you. He thought we were a couple." Zaldon chuckled again, stroking Kel's mane. "And what you peeked in on last night? That was me convincing him of otherwise."

"So that's it then? You're going to live with Julyan?" Kel had tried not to sound too miserable, but he failed.

Zaldon opened his eyes and looked down at Kel. "Oh, Kel," he whispered, touching his fingers to Kel's lips. "I will always love you. You know that. I shall never be free!"

Kel laughed in spite of himself to hear this. "So he makes you happy?"

"Very happy."

"Then . . . that's all that matters."

They smiled at each other and kissed.
