Welcome to Wellgarden - Part Three

Less than twenty four hours after Terra and Ignatious' first solitary explorations in one another's presence, the four friends stood together in the taurs' living room.

Hand in hand, Ignatious and Maya beamed and blushed as they watched their four legged companions doing the very same, silently relishing this moment... the monumental outcome of all the passion, excitement and intimacy which the four of them had shared over the last two months.

Terra was the first to break the silence, reaching out with the hand tenderly clutching at her husband's own, only to release it, offering Zephyr's grasp to Maya instead.

"Take care of my husband. I want him back in one piece... more or less."

Maya giggled warmly, and took the white tiger taur's large, strong hand into her free one, whilst simultaneously offering Ignatious' hand to Terra in kind.

"I know you'll look after Iggy well too. Don't let him off easy though. I know what that man is capable of... and if he leaves you anything short of unconscious, he's not giving you his best."

In a few short seconds, the exchange was done. Ignatious now standing beside Terra, the coyote taur holding onto the leopard with one hand while her other paw ran its fingers through the fluff of his firm, lean chest. Maya meanwhile felt one of Zephyr's arms gently encircling her waist, cuddling her up against him, and the chilla wolf leaned into the tiger taur's embrace with a happy growl.

This moment had been a long time coming. None of them may have admitted it before the previous night, but now that Terra and Ignatious had taken that first step into the unknown, they all felt as though it was long overdue. Both Maya and Zephyr had been thrilled, rather than uncertain or outright angry, to hear that their partners had fooled around in close proximity, and had it not been for Ignatious and Terra's fatigue due to their efforts from that previous evening, they might well have attempted to make this little trade off mere minutes after it had first been suggested.

Now that they'd had the night and part of the morning to sleep and think on it though, all parties were glad that they'd at least waited this little bit of extra time. It meant they were all refreshed and eager. All hungry and, quite frankly, horny enough to not just make this occasion worthwhile, but truly memorable.

So many firsts were about to take place. Neither taur had been with a biped before, nor had Ignatious or Maya been with a taur. Sure, Ignatious and Terra had something of a head start on their partners due to their show and tell session from the previous night, but aside from the weary, genuinely innocent cuddles that had occurred as the leopard fell asleep by Terra's side later that night, they had still to lay a single finger upon one another with any sort of romantic or sexual intent. More to the point though, this was each of the foursome's first time straying beyond the limits of their relationship. The first time that Terra and Zephyr were ever willing to open their marriage to include anyone but themselves, and the first time that Ignatious and Maya, albeit not even married yet, had ever felt the urge to be with anyone else.

The bottom line was, they all wanted this. And they had all wanted this for at least a proportion of the time that they had spent sharing their intimacy with the other couple. No, there may not have been obvious guilt or shame involved, such was the strength of their relationships, but the fact that they had not admitted to these feelings until so recently, and had come to the point of acting on them so swiftly, spoke volumes about how much this sort of thing had played on the four furs' mind.

From the moment Zephyr and Maya had been told of what their lovers had shared together, they had been filled not with anger or jealousy, but relief. They all claimed not to feel guilt about being attracted to one another not only as couples, but individuals. However, the simple fact that they had not ever addressed it; that they had never actively asked their partners if such an exchange as this would be something to consider until yesterday's actions had forced the issue, suggested that if not guilt, there had at least been an uncertainty in the minds of all those involved about whether what they were feeling was right, or wrong.

Now though... now all those unspoken, unconsidered worries were gone. Cast aside, and replaced instead by the thrill of new discoveries soon to come, and the fevered passion that came with knowing that something which has been craved for quite some time was about to come to pass.

"Terra, are you and Ignatious happy to stay here, if me and Maya go to her place?"

A gentle nod from the coyote taur, as well as the leopard now standing by her side, was all it took to get both Zephyr and Maya moving. They beamed, blushing as they walked past the love of their life, hand in hand with another person, and left the room. Their bare footpaws padded softly upon the carpeted floor, and soon carried the chilla and her new, larger feline lover out into the corridor between the two apartments. They were naked, as always, but still they lingered there between apartments. Pausing, listening, waiting to see if they'd hear a giggle, or a moan, or a word of intimacy from their normal partners. There was only silence though, because surely as they were living and breathing, Terra and Ignatious were probably standing absolutely still back in the living room... trying to listen out for the very same thing.

"C'mon..."

Maya murmured under her breath, in a dreamy, giddy sort of daze.

"...I don't wanna play the voyeur any more. I want to do something."

Somewhat more swiftly than before, the two soon to be lovers set off once again. They disappeared through the front door of Ignatious and Maya's apartment just ten or fifteen seconds later, only the fingers of Maya's free hand remaining curled around the edge of the door in thoughtful contemplation. Soon enough though, those fingers pulled away, and in a moment of impassioned confidence, Maya pushed the door closed behind them.

For the first time in months, since that very first occasion on which she and her fiancé had heard the two taurs going at it through their own open front door, Maya didn't want to share this moment with the two figures down the corridor. She wanted this time for herself, and for Zephyr. And she wanted her beloved husband-to-be to have this same time just for him and Terra.

They could talk about it, share it, re-enact and re-live every moment of it in days, weeks, months and years to come. But right now, what these two pairs of first-time lovers were about to share, deserved to be kept personal, and private.

***************

For Terra and Ignatious, this opportunity felt like it had been a long time coming. It may have been less than a day since their first small steps into this unknown realm of explicit interactions, but now that the pair had been given a tiny taste of what awaited them, they had been desperate to expand upon it ever since.

The two figures stood, silent and trembling, at the door to Terra and Zephyr's apartment. They listened, and squeezed at one another's hands when they heard the front door to Maya and Ignatious' apartment click shut.

In a matter of seconds, their own door was closed, and they were bounding... racing, stumbling towards the taurs' bedroom.

With a giddy, squealing yelp of delight, Terra felt Ignatious tackle her from the side on, and together the coyote and her bipedal feline partner tumbled down onto the large, soft mattress of her and Zephyr's bed. The taur lay upon her side, panting and giggling as she felt Ignatious crawling over her; straddling her larger, stronger body. She could see his erection, swollen and rigid as steel, throbbing against her soft greyish brown fur, and feel it twitching with every thundering beat of the male's heart. He stared down at her, and as she looked back at him, Terra couldn't help licking her lips in lustful anticipation.

"W-what do you want to do with me?"

The leopard growled softly, running his hands down the length of the taur's smooth, powerful lower torso.

"Anything. Everything. I want to make you feel good. To make you cum, even harder than you made yourself cum yesterday."

A rosy redness crossed Terra's cheeks, and though for a moment she held back the response that had immediately sprung to mind, she didn't dare deny herself the opportunity which seemed to be presenting itself right now.

"Anything? Even if... if it's something, weird?"

Ignatious' eyes widened, but he never stopped smiling.

"Terra... I'm straddling you, one of my best friends. I'm naked, I'm hard, and right now I'm ready to blow because aside from you, all I can think about is my wife-to-be down the corridor getting pleasured and pounded by your husband. I think weird is absolutely fine, under the circumstances."

Squirming and giggling beneath the bipedal feline, Terra's already glowing cheeks began to burn with an even greater intensity.

"Well, then... do you think that maybe, if it's something you'd enjoy, you could... uh... u-use your hands?"

A crimson flush crossed Ignatious own cheeks, and he grinned bashfully.

"You want me to use my hands? On you?"

Terra nodded hopefully. She didn't say anything more, didn't specify exactly how she hoped for the male to please her with his hands, but under the circumstances she hoped that her meaning was clear.

A deep groan of excitement slipped from the coyote taur's muzzle as she felt Ignatious sliding off her writhing, trembling body. She watched, looking down the length of her powerful, multi-limbed form, and witnessed the most wonderful expression crossing Ignatious' face when mere moments later he knelt down behind her, focusing his gaze upon the slightly puffy, glistening pink lips of the female's waiting pussy.

His left hand reached out, slowly, but more teasingly than nervous in its motions, and two fingers gently caressed the soft flesh on the very outskirts of Terra's nether regions. The coyote trembled in excitement, and a breathy moan of anticipation rattled from between her clenched teeth.

The amur leopard's hand was so small, at least when compared to the size of Terra and her husband's limbs. Not only were taurs in general much taller than their bipedal counterparts, standing over seven feet tall and much longer from head to tail-tip, but they were broader too. More heavily built with muscle to carry their own weight, and to ensure that no matter how large, their bodies were still lithe and swift. This meant that when placed side by side, or when given reason to hold hands with someone of the lesser limbed persuasion, any fully grown taur would dwarf the biped's hand with their own far larger limb.

Thus, not only were Ignatious' movements and touches immensely delicate compared to even the most gentle touch from Terra's husband, but she was acutely aware of how much larger her own anatomy was, when compared to what the leopard must have been used to.

"O-ohh my god..."

A heated whimper escaped the taur as she felt Ignatious' fingers slip between her outer lips, probing at the delicate, rather hot flesh within, caressing up and down the length of her folds until they encountered the swollen nub of her clit.

"Fuck... oh f-fuck. Keep going, just like that."

She blushed deeper and deeper, realising just how lewd and desperate her own voice sounded; more like something out of a porn film than someone's genuine reactions to sexual stimulation. The truth was though, she really was this worked up and excited by the mere thought of what might be about to happen. It was something she had never really considered possible in the past, given that she loved her husband dearly and would never wish to cheat on him. But now... to find herself with a lover who not only was her husband happy for her to be with, but with whom she wanted to spend a night of utterly unbridled, unrestrained fun, all those long withheld fantasies were now surging to the surface of her mind for the first time in years.

Terra watched Ignatious like a hawk as the leopard fondled and teased her most intimate depths with his fingers, eyes fixated on his own crotch, where his free hand was stroking himself in time with the ministrations he was applying to her aching pussy. She could hear him growling and moaning in excitement as she gasped and whimpered in pleasure, and knew that it was probably taking all of the male's effort not to pull his hand away from her hot depths and mount her right here and now.

"Deeper... m-more."

Her throaty, lustful plea to the bipedal male went unanswered vocally, Ignatious far too worked up and overwhelmed by the situation to form any sort of rational response. The leopard's hand did freeze for a moment as he teased and fondled Terra's clit, though, and then began to probe deeper into the coyote's warm, wet pussy. The full length of two fingers were soon working themselves in and out of Terra, and as she fumbled with the swollen nipples of her heaving breasts, another urgent whine escaped the female's lips.

"More."

Another finger. Still, barely as wide as the toy which Terra had taken last night, the coyote craved more. She knew towards what her mind was working, to precisely what wonderful extreme she wanted her new lover to take her, but for his sake, not wishing to overwhelm the leopard so swiftly, she begged him to proceed as slowly as her body dared permit.

"Faster. D-deeper. More."

A fourth finger, all but the leopard's thumb, slipped into Terra's depths, drawing a frantic cry from the female's lips as she felt Ignatious using his thumb to grind against her clit while his four other digits slipped swiftly in and out of her hungrily drooling depths. It barely lasted for ten seconds though, ten wonderful, intensely pleasant seconds, before a nervous, shaky growl escaped the feline male's muzzle. Finally, he posed the question that had been burning at the inside of his mind since the very first moment that Terra had mentioned him using his hands. And finally, the female taur didn't have to disguise her wishes any longer.

"You want it all, don't you? My..."

His voice trailed off for a moment as Terra let loose a fevered shriek of pleasure, a single burst of hot, slightly sticky juices surging forth around Ignatious' fingers in a miniature prelude to her first climax.

"My hand. My whole hand. My... my fist."

A frantic, pleading whine of abject ecstasy erupted from the female's lips, and she nodded in mindless, wordless longing.

Ignatious growled, shaking his head as an intense, savage glint began to twinkle deep in his eyes.

"God, that's hot. I'm gonna make you cum so, so hard."

Within moments, the leopard had withdrawn his fingers from Terra's depths and was pressing the knuckles of his tightly clenched fist against her throbbing pussy in their place. A violent grunt of desire and passion escaped each of them as his hand began to work itself into her, swiftly swallowing up his digits, then the rest of his hand in rapid succession. Terra was whimpering, sobbing, practically making every sound under the sun to keep herself from screaming like a banshee at the sheer thrill of what she was feeling, and yet before long even all of that didn't seem like enough to express what she was going through. The taur could feel Ignatious' hand, his whole hand, right up to the wrist, inside herself. She was clenching, squeezing, pulsing all around him, feeling the bumps of his knuckles, the fur upon his digits, even the bones of his wrist, stimulating and pleasuring her. It was everything she had ever hoped for, and so very much more.

In fact, neither one of the pair could have hoped for this first experience of shared, permitted infidelity to be quite so wonderful. They didn't know whether it was due to their earlier experience together the day before, or if their friendship really had proceeded to this point just through their voyeuristic foursome activities, but for whatever reason the fact remained that all of this felt perfectly, wonderfully natural. No, there wasn't quite the same depth of emotion behind each action that they felt when with the true love of their life, but they didn't want that. What they wanted was the thrill of a new relationship, one built upon the equally intense bonds of friendship and sexual desire. And that, in this highly charged moment of frantic euphoria, was precisely what the two of them had achieved.

"P-please... Ignatious. Make me cum. Make me cum a-again, and again... and don't stop until I beg. Please."

The moment those words slipped their way so pleadingly from Terra's muzzle, Ignatious knew that tonight was going to stretch him to his very limits. This woman, so different from his own fiance in many respects, was just like Maya in one particular regard. When it came to the bedroom, and the intimate time they shared their together, she was under no assumptions that she had to hold back or behave herself. If she wanted to be shameless in her sexual appetites, then dammit, she would be. If she wanted to spend this whole night shrieking and squealing and soaking Ignatious' arm with her cum, she would do exactly that. And if she let Ignatious stop pleasuring her long enough to bury his throbbing erection inside her, and share in the ecstasy that she was so lewdly and graphically enjoying, then the coyote wanted her lover to know that he was both lucky and privilaged to be allowed that honour.

And thank god... from all the time she'd spent watching and listening to Maya and Ignatious going at it themselves, she knew that this was exactly how the leopard liked it.

"I'm gonna make you squirt."

Ignatious' voice escaped his lips in a gravelly snarl of passion. His tone alone made Terra tremble in delight, and the words that accompanied him made the coyote's pussy convulse around his unmoving, flexing fist.

"I'm gonna make you scream, and scream... and then scream a little more, until you can't bear to be touched for another second."

The taur's eyes rolled back into her head, and she gurgled in delirious joy as Ignatious addressed her with the kind of forceful, intimate confidence that she had only ever known from two men in her life. The leopard with his fist buried inside her now, and her husband.

"And then... when even thinking about another orgasm makes you want to curl up in a ball and sleep for a year, I'm gonna pound you until I cum... and you're gonna love it."

With a sudden, sharp jerk of his arm, Ignatious' fist pressed a few inches deeper into the hot, trembling depths of his new lover's pussy.

Her eyes widened.

A breathless, mindless sob erupted from deep in her throat.

The coyote's pussy clenched, and began to convulse and throb as wave upon wave of hot fluids gushed out around the male's fist, still moving, still thrusting and shifting inside her.

Terra wailed happily as she began to cum, and with the last of her conscious sanity, silently prayed that her husband was showing Ignatious' wife-to-be the same sort of ecstasy that she was in store for tonight.

***************

As the door to Maya and Ignatious' apartment clicked shut, the chilla felt the grip of her soon to be lover's hand tighten around hers, squeezing intimately. She looked up at him, the powerful, large white tiger taur, and blushed as a deep, rumbling purr escaped from deep in his chest.

"May I kiss you, Maya?"

A light, giddy giggle escaped Maya's lips. She nodded, and beamed as the taur leaned down to bring them almost face to face. Even then, she had to stand on tip-toes to bring them truly level, and to wrap her arms around his shoulders with any degree of security as their lips brushed against one another gently.

The kiss was long, but not deep or particularly intense. It was a fond, intimate series of pecks and teasing strokes between lips and tongues. A way to test the waters, to gauge how comfortable and eager the two furs were to begin this night of unprecedented intimacy together. Thankfully, the fact that they just kept going, holding one another right there in the hallway as they enjoyed their gentle make-out session, seemed to suggest that they were both as eager for this as their partner. From the very beginning, both Maya and Zephyr had been a little worried that their partner for this evening was only here because their lover wanted this exchange to happen... not because they wanted it themselves. But now, at last, those worries were beginning to fade away.

Slowly, calmly, Zephyr's strong hands slipped down the length of his new partner's back, caressing the length of her spine with his claws extended, causing the female to shudder violently. Soon his paws were at the base of her back, and he was taking the chilla's buttocks into his palms, squeezing and massaging them with an extremely delicate touch for such a vast, strong male.

Maya's cheeks flushed scarlet, and she uttered a breathy, gasping sound of excitement.

"Y-you've been paying attention..."

Zephyr just growled in acknowledgement. He had indeed noticed that Maya loved it when her husband-to-be embraced her like this, gripping her by the rump and holding her close against his body. And sure enough, it seemed that her enjoyment of being touched and held this way wasn't purely limited to Ignatious doing the holding.

"Watching you and Iggy wasn't just fun for Terra and me. It was an education. I'm not afraid to say that we learned a few tricks from watching you... things we've started doing together since. I hope you've seen a couple of things we did that gave you guys ideas, too."

The chilla beamed, squirming slightly and wiggling her hips, pressing back against the already firm grasp which Zephyr had upon her rump.

"Oh, you've given us more than ideas. I mean... it's not just us, right? You've been more, uh, active with Terra since the four of us started listening in on each other?"

Zephyr nodded, grinning toothily.

"Yeah. Don't get me wrong, we never really had any dry spells together. We've always enjoyed each other, and... well, enjoyed sex, too much to ever stop. But since you guys came into our lives, it's like we're... like we're your age again. Newlyweds ourselves. We've even noticed that we're spending less money every month, because rather than going out we're staying in to fool around together, or with the two of you."

The white tiger fell silent, his own cheeks rapidly reddening as he realised that for the first time, what he had just said didn't really apply. He wasn't with his wife, or with the two of his dear friends and his wife. It was just him and Maya now, standing together, pressing against one another's bodies, all alone.

Clearly Maya was having the same thoughts, because just seconds later, she asked the very question that was ringing out through Zephyr's mind.

"Well... how about fooling around with me? Will that do for tonight, or would you rather go out and grab a drink?"

A devious grin crossed the taur's face, and he licked his lips teasingly.

"If I want a drink, I don't need to go out. I've got the perfect source, right here..."

One of the tiger taur's hands fell away from Maya's rump, and slid down between the chilla's legs. Her eyes widened for a moment as she felt the large, unfamiliar hand cupping her groin, but then grew instantly heavy and half lidded with intense delight. She felt one of his large fingers slipping between the smooth lips of her pussy, and caressing at her intimate flesh with playful confidence.

"O-oh..."

As soon as that first moan of true pleasure escaped Maya's lips, both she and Zephyr felt any remaining concerns they may have been holding onto fade from their hearts, replaced instead by a burning desire to generate more of those same wonderful sounds from one another. The feline male removed his hand from between Maya's legs as swiftly as he'd placed it there, much to her dismay, but instead brought that same paw to rest upon her left cheek. He stroked her face fondly, and leaned down to peck her on the lips once more.

"I want to be with you. Now. Would you do me the honour of taking me into your bedroom?"

The chilla's heart almost melted from romantic overload. What Zephyr was saying could have come off as ridiculously sappy and overly sentimental, but somehow the fact he was older, albeit not that old, and so much bigger than her made it sound almost fatherly in its tone. Never before had Maya understood the whole 'daddy' thing in sex, comparing a lover to a parent as some kind of compliment rather than a horrific train-wreck of romantic failure. But right then, in that moment, she understood. She was younger. Smaller. In many ways more vulnerable than her lover, even though this was a first for them both. But his confidence, his tenderness, it inspired and excited her on a very primordial level.

This man, despite his greater strength and size, was asking to be with her in the most delicate, intimate of ways possible. And because of that, she did not fear him or what he might want to do with her. Quite the opposite, in fact. She craved it more than ever.

"Yes..."

She murmured joyously, taking Zephyr by the hand once more, peeling his fingers away from her blushing face and slipping them through her own, smaller digits.

"God yes."

The bedroom swiftly swallowed up the two needy lovers-to-be, and within moments of entering the room Maya found herelf being laid down upon her back, blushing and murmuring as her legs were pulled gently apart by Zephyr's gentle hands. A loud whimper of excitement and embarrassment escaped the chilla when she felt the warm breath of Zephyr's maw washing over her crotch, and before her pleasure-ridden, utterly enamoured mind could process what was about to happen, she felt the rough, hot moistness of the feline's tongue dragging itself over the length of her exposed crotch.

In the twenty minutes that followed, Maya didn't open her eyes even once. She didn't need to. Her other senses filled in all the details, from the sound of Zephyr grunting and growling happily to the sounds of his tongue slapping roughly against her pussy, and the feeling of intense stimulation surging through her as the tiger's tongue ravaged her clit and probed ever deeper into the crevice of her most intimate reaches. She could smell her own arousal, and taste Zephyr's excitement in the air; a potent cocktail of her own familiar lust and the wonderfully unique scent of this male with whom she had never shared such close, intimate space alone.

The chilla didn't know exactly when her hands had risen to grasp at the back of Zephyr's head, holding him in place between her thighs, but soon she could feel tufts of his short headfur clutched between her fingers. She could hear herself crying out, yelping and barking in delight as the male feasted on her free-flowing pussy. Her head was reeling, dizzy with ecstasy, and had she opened her eyes for even a moment Maya doubted that the world beyond the darkness she was currently inhabiting would make the slightest bit of sense.

"Zephyr..."

Her cheeks flushed brightly as she heard herself moan a name other than that of her beloved Ignatious. Begging. Longing. Urging him on as she began to shake from head to toe, approaching the brink of orgasmic rapture.

"Yes... oh yes, Zephyr. Yes... yes... _y- yes _!"

Savage, desperately happy growls of excitement erupted from the feline male as his face was soaked by hot streaks of Maya's juices. The two pairs had seen one another make love more than enough to know that both men were lucky enough to be mated to women with the capacity to ejaculate, but to actually have it happen, to actually be able to taste another woman's juices, was deeply arousing to Zephyr. He slurped and licked at Maya's pussy like a mad-man as she came, his own grunts and moans of glee almost as intense as some of her bliss filled cries. By the time she was spent, her crotch was soaked not only by her juices, but by Zephyr's saliva, coating her pussy and the soft fur all around it with a glistening sheen. The white tiger growled with pride and satisfaction as he pulled away from Maya's loins, admiring his handiwork with glazed, lust stricken eyes. Within seconds though, he was leaning in again. Placing his forelimbs up on the bed and shuffing forwards so that he could lean down close over Maya, and press his moist, fragrantly scented lips against hers in yet another intimate kiss.

It was then, as they were kissing, that Maya felt it for the first time.

Zephyr's arousal. His cock, vast, swollen, rigid, and throbbing as it came to rest upon her lower belly while the tiger straddled her.

It was huge. Not to put her husband-to-be down in the slightest, but by the sheer fact of the taur's biology, Zephyr was considerably larger and thicker in size than Ignatious. Maya's mate had a wonderfully plump seven inch shaft, its tip ringed by feline barbs that while not sharp, added a delicious friction to any love-making in which they engaged. The tiger taur straddling her now however, must have been at least ten inches in length, maybe even eleven. He was thicker than Ignatious, and his balls were almost twice the size.

Maya couldn't help herself. She wanted to be cool, to not flip out at the very idea of being fucked by such a vast length of manhood, but in the immediate wake of the intense orgasm she had just endured, she was in no state to resist the allure of such a sight.

She giggled girlishly, and gazed up with reverence and longing into Zephyr's eyes.

"Be gentle..."

For a moment, she paused, then shook her head. Her smile widened.

"Actually. Don't. Just... just fuck me, Zephyr. Let me feel exactly what makes your wife scream the way she does."

***************

That night, no-one slept.

Zephyr grunted and gasped as he pressed into the immense tightness of Maya's depths, working more than two thirds of his length into her before letting loose and giving the chilla exactly what she wanted. He made her scream in joyous pleasure over and over, bringing Maya to two more earth-shattering climaxes before his own swept over him, filling the female to overflowing in moments and triggering her strongest, most overwhelming peak yet as she felt herself practically swelling with the volume of his cum.

At almost the same time down the hallway, Ignatious was buried to the hilt inside Terra, able to pound and hump at the coyote taur with reckless abandon, neither large nor strong enough to hurt her no matter how hard he pushed himself. His comparably lithe, small body was able to twist and turn in ways that Zephyr simply could not, his cock striking at sweet spots within Terra that normally only her husband's fingers could reach.

Over and over the two pairs fucked, exploring positions that weren't possible with someone the same size as them, and taking great joy in the wonderful variations that came with pleasuring a partner born with two fewer, or two more legs than they were used to. Even in the times spent recovering between fevered sessions, the four lovers could not stop exploring and touching and learning one another's most intimate, physical secrets. Hands, tongues, eyes, every organ capable of active exploration was put to work.

Even when the four of them were completely done, when not a single one of them possessed the strength either to cum again, or make their partner do the same, they didn't let the night end. They lay together, wrapped up in one another's warmth, and talked. And kissed. And enjoyed these new, intense feelings that sex never failed to enhance.

By the time the sun began to rise, and Ignatious and Terra sleepily stumbled down the corridor to reunite with their usual partners, none of them were quite sure what to think any more. They had loved what they'd shared, but the question lingered in all four of their minds... how much was too much when it came to the enjoyment they'd experienced in these new pairings.

In a nervous final moment, Terra pulled Ignatious tight against her, pressing her lips against his in full view of her husband and his fiance. When they were done, Maya and Zephyr shared the very same, embracing and kissing tenderly one last time before returning to their own, usual partners.

Silently, Ignatious crawled into bed to sit beside his wife-to-be, and the married taurs walked wordlessly out of the apartment, heading home hand in hand.

Within the hour that followed, all of those present laughed, and cried at least a little. Overwhelmed by emotions ranging from joy, excitement and hope, to regret, shame, and humiliation. They all told their lover how much they'd enjoyed their night... and confessed, almost mournfully, how much more they'd enjoyed it than they expected. This night, this strange and unique swapping of partners, could have been an unmitigated disaster; destabilising not one but two loving, previously secure couples. Except for one simple fact.

They had all admitted to those same feelings. They had all enjoyed what had happened more than expected, and thus if anyone was at fault, the blame was to be shared equally.

Sleep finally came to the foursome in the mid-hours of the morning, and lasted for several hours before the sheer brightness of the midday sun made it impossible for them to nap any longer.

Together, the two pairs of lovers awoke. Curled up, cuddling, and most importantly of all, still very much in love with their partner.

It had only been a couple of hours, but those few short hours of sleep made all the difference in the world to their perspectives.

No longer was the blame to be shared equally, for now, they all realised that there was no blame. What they had discovered wasn't that they had feelings for someone other than their mate, but rather, they had feelings for their mate, and for someone else. These feelings weren't exclusive, nor were they making any attempt to change how their partner, or their new lover's partner, felt about them.

At almost one thirty that afternoon, the door to Terra and Zephyr's apartment stood wide open, and Ignatious and Maya both grinned as they walked, naked and hand in hand, through it.

In the living room, they found the two taurs cuddled up on the sofa, nude and just relaxing in one another's arms.

Ignatious approached Terra.

Maya approached Zephyr.

They peeled the two taurs apart, and scrambled up onto the large couch, into the arms of the one with whom they'd spent the previous night.

Lips met, arms closed around warm, bare bodies, and four faces lit up with beaming, red cheeked grins of relief and joy.

Not only were their friendships safe, but these new relationships that they had forged were not over. Indeed, with all the wonderful experiences that they could share together as a true foursome, each and every one of those present were willing to bet that their fun and intimacy together had only just begun.
