Ari is an avid wrestler who is trying to get into the championships, but unfortunately there are just more talented people in front of him that make the team. When there's a chance for him to take a shortcut via a deal with a demon he decides to take it, but as success starts to go to his head he forgets the people that brought him there. Unfortunately for him the one that got him there didn't, especially the deal they had made.

Inside the large gymnasium a number of men stood watching the two in the middle of the mats grabbing each other, one trying to get the other pinned down while making sure the same thing didn’t happen to them. One of those contenders was Ari, the human gritted his teeth he tried to hook the leg of his lupine opponent only to find himself stumbling and falling down onto the mat a moment later. He let out a grunt as the other man took advantage and immediately caught him in a hold and proceeded to keep him there until they heard their coach blow the whistle to end the match. Ari smacked his hand down against the soft foam padding in anger at being taken down before getting up onto his feet and walking off with the other wrestler.

“You have to watch it when you go for an opening Ari,” the coach said as Ari took off his helmet. “If you go up against a faster opponent they can take advantage of you just like Kirandi here did and put you off balance.”

Ari just nodded and went over to the bench to sit down while the next round of people went up to the mat. Even though this was just for practice he felt slightly irritated that he lost like that as he put his glasses back on in order to watch his teammates. It was another human verses a cobra this time, which like his was an intentional pairing so that they could get used to going up against anthro opponents. While strength and skill were comparable the coach rightly wanted to make sure that the first time they gripped someone and felt fur or scale or feather it didn’t cause them to pause at the sensation. As he sat there Ari remembered the first time he had to wrestle an anthro back in high school and feeling the smooth scales of the lizardman he wrestled named Tyr had nearly stunned him for that entire first match.

That hadn’t been the last time that he felt those scales though, the frown on Ari’s face dissipating for a second as he remembered later on in the season the two had fooled around after a particularly intensive senior championship match. As he used a nearby towel to get the sweat off of his tan skin he remembered seeing the rather muscular body of the other man hovering over him in the hotel room that they were all booked at, that fanged grin on the lizardman’s muzzle before they performed an entirely different form of wrestling. Unfortunately that was right at the tail end of his high school career and the lizard wrestler had gotten some sort of scholarship for it after winning that championship, which meant that he was moving out of state. They continued to keep contact over social media but with him going to Campbell University and the anthro being nearly across the country they wouldn’t be able to share in that experience unless their wrestling schedules ever overlapped again.

As the sound of one guy getting slammed to the ground by another brought Ari back to reality he realized that recounting the experience had left him somewhat hot and bothered, and since it was close to the end of the practice anyway he was allowed to duck out and hit the showers. Once he had gotten stripped down and underneath the water he let it cascade down his body as his mind once more turned to his most recent loss. Wrestling in college was nothing like back in high school and though he had managed to be good enough to get on the team itself he found himself being outclassed by quite a few others. In his first year he almost didn’t qualify to represent the college in the wrestling championship either, and if he didn’t get better soon he would have to sit on the bench yet again.

“Thought I would find you here,” Kirandi said as Ari turned to see the naked wolf man walking into the showers.

“This is where people who work out typically go,” Ari replied, which caused the wolf to chuckle as he watched the lupine put a number of bottles on the shelf against the wall. “I can’t believe you got my foot like that.”

“Well I happen to know where your weak points are,” Kirandi replied as he went under the water. “That being said the coach is right, you still leave yourself too open to counter when you make a move like that. When you’re going up against a lithe opponent you have to remain stable, throw your weight around a little and use that to your advantage.”

Ari frowned a little at that and looked down at his body. He had what some would consider to be a chunky build, aided by the freshman fifteen when he had gotten into college, and though that could be considered an asset in the wrestling world he looked upon the lean build of the wolf with envy. “I suppose you’re right,” Ari said with a sigh. “Don’t suppose you have any especial techniques for me to use like that.”

“Not my style,” Kirandi replied before he grinned at Ari and waved the luffa that he had been using to lather himself up at the human. “Since you lost and all do you mind getting my back? It’s so much easier to clean when someone helps me.”

The dour mood that Ari was in lifted and he agreed, walking up and taking the luffa from him and rubbing it against his back muscles. With his fur being wet the wolf’s muscles stood out even more and as one hand continued the task at hand the other pressed against the front of Kirandi’s chest. He knew that the lupine was bisexual and they knew that he was gay, and though they never really hooked up in a meaningful way it didn’t stop them from enjoying the touch of one another’s bodies when they could. With the other wrestlers coming in any minute they didn’t go too far with their play, and when they finally did hear the doors open Ari darted back to his shower and turned the water to cold in order to quickly calm himself down before finishing up and leaving the athletic center.

Despite his encounter with Kirandi in the shower he found himself still angry that he had gotten pinned right in front of everyone like that. If anything the teasing that the lupine did with him only got him more riled up than before, unfortunately he needed to get research material for a project of his and the library was going to close soon. He also heard his stomach rumbling after his wrestling practice and needed food as well so unless he wanted to go into one of the bathrooms and relieve himself there was nothing he could do but wait it out until he got back to his dorm. It didn’t help that it took nearly an hour for him to get everything he needed from the library, but as he walked from there to the cafeteria he saw a familiar face that caused him to smile.

Ari had met James his first week in college and the two had become fast friends during orientation, and then over the nearly two years became best friends. Unlike Ari he wasn’t on the wrestling team or played any sports for that matter, instead investing in his studies and sometimes giving him a helping hand. In return he had offered to help his friend out in anything athletic in nature but whenever he did James would just run his hand through his blonde hair and laugh it off saying in his usual soft-spoken voice that he wouldn’t know where to start. That didn’t bother Ari much though, in fact he found it nice to have someone outside of the wrestling team to talk to as he went up to him and asked if he had eaten yet and wanted to go to the dining hall with him.

“I think my physics professor is literally trying to kill us,” James said once they had gotten their food and sat down at an empty table. “We just finished mid-terms and now we’re going to have to start another project that’s due in two weeks.”

“Sounds rough man,” Ari replied as he ate one of his cheese fries. “Anything I can do to help?”

“Other than distract me from this workload I’m not sure what you can do,” James said, giving Ari a small grin. “I appreciate the offer though. Plus aren’t you getting ready for that college wrestling championship thing that’s going on next month?”

“Oh… yeah…” Ari replied as he felt his stomach drop slightly. “I don’t think I’m going to make it onto the championship team this year, Kirandi and the others have it pretty much locked up tight.”

“Ah man, that sucks to hear,” James stated. “I know that you were really trying for it.”

“It’s no big deal,” Ari quickly tried to refute as he continued to eat to distract himself and James. “A few of those guys are seniors and leaving next year anyway, which means that I’ll be on for sure when that happens. Until then I just have to keep working hard like you.”

James nodded and seemed to believe what Ari had just told him, but the truth of the matter was that he felt like his stomach was in knots over the entire thing. That last practice was supposed to show the progress that everyone was making and though Kirandi was highly rated the fact he brought him down so easily didn’t look good for him. The worst part was he didn’t even know if he could do it next year either; one of the freshman that had recently joined gave him and some of the other wrestlers a run for their money this year. It was possible that he wasn’t going to make the championships at all during his college years and had started to wonder if it was even worth it to be on the team, and as they continued to talk he found himself wishing in his mind that he could find some way, any way, to make it happen…

The two finished their conversation and their meal before James stated he had to get back to the lab, which prompted Ari that he had his own project to do. As he got up and watched his friend leave his mind went back to his lupine teammate and his encounter with the shower. While he would have never considered being in an actual relationship with Kirandi the same couldn’t be said for James, though he had a bit of a feminine build he knew from when they had gone swimming together that he was definitely a guy. The problem was that during their first week he had seen James try to flirt, albeit rather awkwardly, with some girls that were at the orientation party and it seemed like he had no interest in him or any other guys either human or anthro.

It was probably better that way anyway, Ari thought to himself with a mental shrug as he gathered his books and left the cafeteria as well. The last thing he needed was ruining the relationship he already had with his best friend and there were plenty of others out there if he wanted to pursue a relationship. That was the last thing on his mind though as between his own pile of homework and the increasing anxiety that he wasn’t going to make the cut the year he didn’t think he could handle anything else at the moment. He considered going to the gym and trying to work out to increase his strength but the weight in his arms reminded him that the only thing he was going to lift for the rest of the night was the books that he held as he got back to his dorm.

Night fell over the college campus and as a new day turned over Ari was still at his desk surrounded by empty cups as he rubbed his face with his hands. He had thought that he could just power through the project and get it done in one day so he could focus more on training, but it had been deceptively simple and as the night ticked on he saw that there was more and more work to be done with it. Most of the books had already been rifled through and set aside with only a few left to go, and though he knew he was not going to finish that night he figured he’d at least try to get through the reference material. As he opened the next book and flipped through it however something fell out of the book and into his lap, for a moment Ari feared that the binding of the older book had started to fall apart until he saw the paper and realized that it didn’t look anything like the other pages.

With his mind assured that he wasn’t going to have to pay anything to the library Ari put the book aside and picked up the piece of paper, though as he ran his fingers over it the material felt thicker than that. It looked like something that would be picked up in a fantasy video game and as he opened the note he found words scrawled delicately in ink that covered quite a bit of the surface. It was hard to read with the flowing calligraphy but once he got used to the style of the words he could make out what it said. When he read the title of it he found his eyes widening slightly in surprise at what he had found.

It was how to summon a demon.

At that point Ari felt like he had definitely picked up some sort of prop that belonged in a fantasy movie, but as he continued to read down the list of instructions it seemed to be a very serious proposal. Instead of the usual ring of candles and pentagram drawn on the ground in blood it just instructed him to go out into the woods when the moon was full while in the pinnacle of the sky and start a small bonfire, then recite the incantation on the paper to bring the demon into the realm. It still sounded crazy to him though, especially the bottom part where it would give him whatever he desired for a price. Someone clearly just did it for a laugh, Ari thought to himself as he tossed the paper aside and continued to work on his project.

A few days later Ari was back in the gym once more on his back, panting heavily as the other human he had gone up against managed to get him in a pin after a few minutes of back and forth. Though it was much closer than his encounter with Kirandi it did result in him losing the match again and as Ari was helped up by his opponent he felt his face going red with anger and embarrassment. As he was about to head over to the bench and sit down to wait his turn again the coach called him over and gave him the news that Ari knew was coming; that he wasn’t going to make the cut for the team and he wouldn’t be participating in the championships. Even though the coach tried to reassure him and say how close he was and that there would be a good chance for him next year all Ari could do was just nod his head to prevent himself from showing his growing rage.

Fortunately the practice was pretty much over at that point and instead of going to the locker rooms to shower Ari just went back to his dorms to avoid the rest of his team. The last thing he wanted was to get pity from his team and just wanted to be alone for a bit, especially since he knew James was in class at the moment and couldn’t be reached. Not good enough, he just wasn’t good enough, and with less than a month to go he would be on the bench once more. One thing he did do was fire off a text to Tyr telling him of his failure and asking him for advice before he flopped down on his bed.

It wasn’t until night had fallen that Ari had gotten a response back and by that point he had gone back to his desk to work on his project some more. The message was mostly filled with Tyr trying to console him along with a few pointers on things he could do to get better. It was all stuff they had talked about before but he thanked him for the response. He saw the lizardman tell him that there’s always a solution to get what he wanted and Ari just turned off the screen of his phone before tossing it further back onto his desk.

When it clattered slightly Ari looked to make sure he hadn’t tossed it too hard in his frustration and saw that his phone was fine and it had landed on the sheet of paper he found in one of his reference books. A solution to get what he wanted… he slowly reached over and grabbed the piece of paper before unfolding it once more, looking at the lines delicately drawn on the thick material. He had been meaning to throw it away but at the moment the temptation to try it out was starting to grow on him. Even though it was just a fantasy that was probably done as a joke the idea started to grow on him, especially when he looked outside and saw that it was in fact a full moon outside.

It was just a few hours out in the woods, Ari thought as he found he was trying to persuade himself to go. Even if it turned out to be a bust all he would lose was a couple hours of sleep and he didn’t even have any morning classes to go to. After a few minutes of internal debated he grabbed the piece of paper and walked out of his dorm, heading towards the woods. With it being fairly late at night and a weeknight there weren’t many people out and when he did pass by some he tried to make it look like he was going for a jog or something like that.

There were several paths that led into the small patch of trees that the college campus called the woods and Ari had ran several of them as part of his training for wrestling. He remembered one area in particular that was a series of small hills that had a small flat valley of dirt that was clear of trees and underbrush. It also had the hills obscuring anyone from looking in save for that spot on the path and since making fires was illegal he didn’t want to be seen doing it. When Ari got to the spot he found that he hadn’t been the only one to have the idea as he could see a hole dug in the middle of the small clearing with some ashes and a crumpled up beer can in it.

With the makeshift fire pit already dug for him Ari grabbed a few sticks and some dried grass and put it in before taking out the lighter he had grabbed from the counter where his roommate left it. The note didn’t say how big the fire had to be and as the flames started to lick at the small branches and get bigger he left it at that so no one would possibly see it. Once he had gotten the fire going he looked up at the sky and saw that the moon was overhead, the rays of silver light streaming down through the trees and giving the entire area an eerie appearance. He wasn’t sure what the zenith of the moon was but hoped that it being overhead was good enough as he flipped open the note and began to read.

As he was halfway through it struck Ari just how absurd this might look to anyone watching; a guy reading out a bunch of long words in a thick Brooklyn accent in front of a fire like some sort of fantasy movie. Though it was hard to read in the dark with the calligraphy he managed to get all the way to the end before letting out the rest of his breath in a sigh. After about a minute passed nothing happened except for his fire dying out, snuffed like his hope that this was actually going to work. For a while Ari stood there and thought about trying again before just giving up and returning to the dorm.

Ari felt foolish as he got back into his building smelling of smoke and dirt, grateful that no one was there to see him as he got to his room and went inside. A demon that could give him what he wanted, it was possibly the craziest thing he had ever done in his life as he returned the lighter back to its resting spot. Part of him wondered if he was going to see something put up on social media from a hidden camera or something, like the whole thing was a big joke. At the moment though all he wanted to do as he got into his room and closed the door behind him was go to bed and go to sleep…

…only to find that his bed was currently occupied. Ari nearly jumped back into the wall as he saw the black-skinned man lying there as though waiting for him, his body covered only in a cloak that left little to the imagination. As he recovered from his shock he began to notice that the features of the intruder were not human nor anthro with his ears pointed like an elf with a pair of horns that grew out from the silvery mane of hair. It was like one of those drow elves that James had showed him once in his fantasy books… or like a demon as part of the cloak was flipped back by the ropy tail underneath to also reveal the thick ten-inch cock that rested on the ebon thigh like a resting snake.

“Hello Ari,” the creature said. “My name is Ibaxi, and I am the demon you summoned.”

“No way,” Ari quickly replied as he tried to back up only to realize he was up against the wall already. “There’s no way that magica worked!”

“And yet here I am,” Ibaxi replied with a smirk that showed off one of his fangs. “Ready to give you whatever you desire. Let me try and take a guess, is it riches? No… I think you want power, and not just any power but the strength to conquer your enemies… oh, and your friends too it seems.”

Ari felt his face grow flush as he shook his head. “I don’t want any of that,” Ari refuted as he waved his hands in the air. “I’m not sure why I even did what I did, I didn’t think that it was going to work! Maybe I just fell asleep at my desk and imagining that I’m talking to a… a…”

“A demon,” Ibaxi finished with a slight chuckle as he sat up, which only revealed more of his lithe body which given the smirk from the demon seemed to be on purpose. “And don’t try to lie to me, I know what was in your heart when you decided to do what you thought was a silly little ritual. I can see it clear as day; you have a wolf that you both admire and envy, and a lizardman that showed you just how powerful the aspects of those animals could be. I can give you that power, that strength and cunning that they emulate so you can be the champion for once instead of them.”

Ari found himself biting his lip as the demon ran a clawed finger down his cheek, unable to say that he wasn’t interested in it… mostly because he was. Ibaxi had hit the nail on the head, he was envious of how agile Kirandi was and how strong Tyr had been, always feeling like anthros had a step up when it came to physical activities even though they said they weren’t. “What do I have to give up?” Ari asked suddenly. “The paper mentioned that there was a price.”

“The price for the power I’m about to give you is a mere trifle,” Ibaxi replied with a dark chuckle. “All I need in exchange is your essence to repay me for giving you mine. Now before you ask it’s not your soul, it’s your seed, for a year after our deal you will give yourself only to me until I have back twice the essence that I have given you. Trust me when I say that I will make sure it’s an extremely pleasurable experience, but until the year is up you can’t engage in carnal relations with another.”

The strength and abilities of animals and sex with a hot demon guy, Ari thought to himself as he couldn’t help but feel the throbbing member of the supernatural creature throb against his thigh, it almost seemed too good to be true. With the prospect of being able to claim a championship spot dangled in front of him and his own maleness growing erect it started to cloud his thoughts, and when the demon asked again he found himself nodding his head. “Yes, yes I want you to make me just like Kirandi and Tyr,” Ari said as he felt his heart pounding in his chest. “Give me the power to be the strongest wrestler ever!”

“You’ll be even greater than those two when I’m done with you,” Ibaxi replied as he sat back down on the bed, his hand around his ten-inch cock that began to stiffen. “Now it’s time for you to accept your gift, all you have to do is sit down on my lap.”

Ari had grown increasingly horny and without even realizing it he had practically started to take his own clothes off even before the demon demanded it. For some reason all he could think about was that huge demon cock and as he made his way over toward the smaller male his gaze was still fixated on it. It wasn’t until Ibaxi turned him around that he could tear his gaze away from it, and when he did he was reward with feeling the head of it begin to push up between his butt cheeks. This was a far different experience than what he had ever had before, especially when the demon prompted him to lower himself down and felt it pop past his ring of muscle without an ounce of pain.

“Ah, it’s so big,” Ari huffed as it filled him, stretching open his walls as he continued to slide down the rigid shaft. “How is this… possible…”

“Demon magic of course,” Ibaxi replied as one of his hands reached around and began to stroke the human’s rapidly hardening cock. “Now it’s time for you to get what you want; to make the perfect wrestler I think for sheer strength and ferocious tenacity we’ll call upon the hyena, but I also know that brute power isn’t enough so lets mix in a bit of the regenerative qualities and brutal movement of our bloodthirsty friend the shark.”

Before Ari could ask what that meant he suddenly saw two figures appear in the air, anthro versions of the animals that Ibaxi called out except they were semi-translucent and had demonic features similar to the one behind him. As the cock of the demon continued to push its way inside of him the heavily muscled hyena anthro took his own ghostly member and pushed it up against Ari’s face. Despite its looks the throbbing shaft felt very much real as it thrusted into his mouth, sliding around his tongue and pushing its way into his throat. Aside from the pleasure that came with it he also felt an intense tingle cascade from his head down his body, and when he was able to look down at himself he saw his tanned skin ripple as though it was made of liquid.

With the spectral hyena demon’s cock starting to slide down into his throat Ari couldn’t say anything, especially not when the shark floated down and began to slide up between his legs. “Mmmm, seems we’re one hole short,” Ibaxi said as Ari began to feel the demon massaging between his legs just behind his sack. “Don’t worry, this is only temporary, and I promise you that you’ll love it.”

Ari just let out a muffled grunt as he felt his teeth sharpen slightly, the power flowing into him from the demonic hyena hovering in front of him also causing his face to stretch out. They were filling him like a balloon and as Ibaxi continued to tease his taint the human’s entire body shuddered as it suddenly pushed inside of him. At first he wasn’t sure what these new sensations were but as the shark lifted up one of his legs and the hyena pushed down Ari’s head he could suddenly see that something was forming just in front of the ebon cock that was buried deep into his rear end. The shark let out a growl as he took his two dicks and began to push them into the newly created pussy, which Ari’s eyes to roll back into his head as his body quivered from the overwhelming sensations until everything went black save for the sensations of the three huge cocks thrusting into him over and over again…

When Ari woke up again it was with a gasp, and though for a brief moment he thought that he could still feel the phantom cock that had slid into it he found that not only was the hyena demon gone but the others were as well. He also slid his hand down between his legs and found that there was nothing new there, and a similar inspection of his teeth revealed that they were human as well. If it wasn’t for the fact he could still feel the sensations of those three men thrusting into his body he might have thought it a dream, but as he pulled the covers off of his naked body he didn’t see anything different about his form. Had he just had a sexual encounter with a bunch of demons and gotten nothing from it?

As he started to get dressed Ari heard his phone buzz and looked to see that it was a text James, probably looking to see if he wanted to get something for lunch since he didn’t have classes until later. He responded that he would meet him there and got dressed, and as he finished getting ready and walked out the door he wondered if he should tell him about what happened. Even he could hardly believe what just happened and he had been there, and with no evidence there was nothing he could do to show him. Part of him wondered if he even wanted to expose his friend to this sort of demonic activity, especially if something happened to him that he didn’t realize yet.

In the end Ari kept the events to himself and just had a normal lunch with James, though in the back of his mind he kept getting mental flashes of those two anthro demons. Those leering grins, their cocky attitudes, everything about them stuck in his mind like glue even as he talked about what they might do now that he wasn’t going to be going to the conference championships. Eventually the other man seemed to pick up on it and ask him if he was alright, which just prompted Ari to say he was fine before making up an excuse and leaving. While it was partially because he was distracted Ari also had found himself staring at the other guy and felt something stir within him, something that he definitely didn’t want as he made his way to his classes.

Once he had finished with his last course for the evening Ari had wrestling practice again, and though he wanted to skip it the coach made it mandatory for the entire team unless they had a good excuse to not be there. Not wanting to put his place on the team in jeopardy too he decided to go in and at least put up a good show. As normal they went through their usual starting exercises and as they did he could feel his mood lightening, feeling the burn in his muscles distracted him from everything else that was going on as well as getting to be with the team. Eventually however they got to moves practice and Ari felt his sour mood return when he got paired up with the cobra freshman that had managed to beat most of those that weren’t going to the conference, including him several times.

Ari wasn’t one to quit though and squared off with the other wrestler, watching the forked tongue flick out past his lips as those serpentine eyes looked at him. When the match began it felt to Ari like every other match, except… that he suddenly felt much more aware of his surroundings. It was like he knew where the cobra was even when he wasn’t looking at him and when he felt the grip tighten against his skin he knew how to move to get out of it. The sudden shift in his abilities had caught the cobra looking for an easy pin off-guard and the two jostled around before Ari managed to overpower his hold and reverse it before locking the scaly man on the mat.

“That’s what I’m talking about Ari!” the coach said as he banged his clipboard on the ground to call the match.

“Where did you learn a move like that?” the cobra asked in slight disbelief once they had gotten off one another. “It was like you anticipated my attack.”

“I’ve… actually been seeing a personal trainer,” Ari lied. The coach came up and congratulated him on taking the initiative and patted him on the back before calling the next set. All the other wrestlers also gave him various accolades and Kirandi giving him a wry smile and a nod of his head, though as Ari nodded back he suddenly became distracted as he saw the figure of the drow demon in the reflection of the mirror. He found himself blinking a few times and when he looked again it was gone, leaving him standing there in shock before he sat down.

Over the next few weeks his ability to wrestle continued to greatly improve, and along with that he noticed his body had started to look more the part as well. Under the guise of going to a personal trainer and working out as much as he could the stubborn fat that had clung to his body had begun to melt away and expose the growing muscle underneath, so much so that he had to go and buy new clothes for himself. With each subsequent practice he had also shown his prowess had improved and began to pin people more frequently, including Kirandi which caught them both by surprise. It wasn’t just his growing strength either, he could sense the movements of the others and catch them off-guard with increasing flexibility.

The day that he had managed to pin Kirandi to the mat was also the same time when the wolf man had met up with him in the shower again, only this time it was his turn as he pressed Ari against the wall. As the lupine muzzle met human lips in a passionate kiss the wolf still managed to say that he had noticed the physical changes in him and that he was becoming a sexy beast, eventually taking his tongue and trailing down his neck before licking on his nipples. Ari had to grab the head of the other male as his body practically convulsed from the overly sensitive nubs, something he had never experienced before as Kirandi took the fingers in his hair to indicate what he wanted to happen next. Ari found his breath catching in his throat as the star of the wrestling team began to lick his cock and was bout to give him a blowjob, but as those lips pressed against the tip of his throbbing head he looked up and saw the piercing red eyes of Ibaxi staring at him.

Seeing the demon there suddenly reminded Ari of his promise and he nearly slipped as he pulled away, leaving the confused wolf on his knees and looking at him in confusion as he apologized before leaving. Though he felt bad for leaving Kirandi like that he already knew the demon was real, especially since he had gained at least a few inches of height as he pressed a hand against his diminishing belly. The last thing he needed to do was anger some creature by not following the rules. For the next few days he tried to avoid looking at the other wrestler as they finished up the last practice before the conference, which ended with the coach telling them all the bus schedule and when to meet.

“Ari, wait a second,” the coach said just as he was about to leave. “I have something to tell you.”

“Yeah coach?” Ari asked.

“Well I wanted to say that I’ve noticed how hard you’ve been working and the impressive strides you’ve made in less than a month,” the coach replied. “In fact, it’s become clear that you rival some of those that I’ve picked to wrestle in the conference. That’s why I’m telling you now that I put you on the roster, you’re going to be competing in the championship with Kirandi and the others.”

The coach continued to talk more but Ari stopped listening after hearing that he was going to be competing, only becoming vaguely aware that his hand was being shook. As he got back to the locker room still floating on air, only to be brought back down to earth when he saw Kirandi standing there. “Hey, I just wanted to say congrats on making it on the team,” Kirandi said as he held out his hand. “And to apologize for coming on strong before, I didn’t mean to let myself get carried away like that and I don’t want to make things awkward if you weren’t ready for that level yet.”

“Oh, thanks man,” Ari replied as he reached out and shook it. “I didn’t mean to run off like that, it’s just it’s a weird time in my life and I have other things on my mind.”

“I was wondering how you managed to get so good,” a third voice chimed in, prompting both of them to turn and see the cobra that Ari had beaten a number of times smirking at them. “You two practicing your moves in the bedroom?”

“Hey man, shut the hell up,” Kirandi said as he bared his teeth slightly, which only caused the serpentine man to grin wider. “You’re just a freshman anyway, you have plenty of time to be on the team.”

Ari stood there in slight disbelief when he realized that he had bumped the cobra off the roster for the conference, but behind that there was also the same anger that Kirandi displayed. “C’mon Kirandi, you know that no one gets that good in such a short amount of time,” the cobra accused before turning to Ari. “So what is it, did you manage to find some sort of steroid? Or maybe you’re just having some private wrestling time with the coach too, makes me wonder who’s pinning who in that-“

Kirandi started to snarl but was surprised when Ari darted past him and slammed the cobra against the lockers loud enough to cause a bang that echoed through the locker room. “Don’t you dare start that shit,” Ari said as he continued to push the scaly chest of the surprised man and practically lifted him off his feet. “You start talking like that and I’ll make sure that the next time you wrestle is when you get out of the hospital, you got me?”

The cobra just nodded and Ari could feel him shivering, which snapped him out of his anger and let the other wrestler fall to the floor. Out of the corner of his eye he could see Kirandi still standing there with a shocked look on his face, but no one was more surprised than Ari himself. He had never been that aggressive before with someone and though the cobra deserved it for what he was saying he knew that it wasn’t what you were supposed to do to resolve the situation. As he left the locker room what actually caused him the most confusion was how good it felt to put that cobra in his place, a small smile forming on his face despite himself as he got out his phone to tell James the good news before preparing to pack.

The next day the Campbell college wrestling team got on the bus and made their way to where the conference championships were being held. Ari and Kirandi sat together despite the human’s outburst in the locker room, the wolf saying that the freshman deserved it anyway, and as Ari looked over at the cobra he could see the other man quickly and nervously look away. It caused a feeling of pride ot swell in his chest in seeing the other male being put in his place as they made the long trip until eventually they got to their hotel. When they got there they could see a few other buses with wrestlers already unloading as well, the conference having everyone share a hotel that was next to the center.

Ari was thrilled as they went to the sports center after checking-in, getting ready to wrestle with the best in the nation. There was also a bit of anxiety for the human as he saw some of the creatures he would be going up against and knew even with his augmented physique that he didn’t compare to them. Would his training really be enough to take these guys down? He knew the demon said that he would be the best wrestler and champion, but he couldn’t rely on his supernatural bargain in order to help him out as his name was called to go to the mat.

After two days though the demon proved to be true to his word and Ari had managed to win every match that he had, which brought him to the final bracket where he would be wrestling against the winner of the other division. He hadn’t had much time to look over at how they were doing but when he went out to the mat and saw who stood there he realized he should have known who would be waiting for him. “Well, long time no see,” Tyr said as the lizardman flexed his muscles. “I hear you’ve had quite the transformation, and I can see that the stories weren’t exaggerated.”

Ari just nodded back and got ready, squaring off with Tyr as he tried to not let his past distract him. The lizardman had clearly been maintaining himself since they last met in high school and his singlet stretched tight over his muscular frame. Though it caused lustful feelings to stir within the human he knew that the last thing he wanted to do was get called out for stretching his own spandex, and instead channeled everything into beating the lizardman. His focus became honed and as soon as the ref blew the whistle he lunged forward to the cheering of the crowd.

It was a grueling set of matches and even with his demonic strength and speed Ari was having trouble keeping up with the lizardman, both sides scoring points. Everything was coming down to the wire and eventually it came down to whoever gets the next pin wins the match. He could hear people cheering his name as well as Tyr’s and knew that if he managed to beat the former champion that it would probably shock people, but that spurred him on all the more to do it. Eventually after about a minute of back and forth Ari finally found the opening he was looking for and brought the lizardman down to the mat, an audible gasp going through the crowd as he locked his opponent in a hold and heard the ref hit the mat.

The sports center erupted in applause as Ari got off the stunned lizardman and raised his muscular arms in the air, his teammates coming in to the mat to congratulate him. He did it… he had won the championship! As he was surrounded by others he noticed Tyr get up and approach him, and though he expected the lizardman to be angry that he just lost he gave him a pat on the shoulder and a smile. The rest of the day became a blur for Ari as he accepted his trophy, as well as the team one for Campbell, and then proceeded to be taken out by the coach to celebrate the win.

Once the festivities had ended Ari found himself back in his hotel room just staring at the shiny trophy that sat there while Kirandi sat in the other bed reading. Though part of him was ecstatic that he had won he was still nagged by the demonic bargain he had made to get it. Some might consider it cheating, but as he looked down at his increasingly muscular body he found himself dismissing the thought. Most of the fat that had been on his body was gone and replaced with muscle and as he gave his meaty bicep a flex he knew that he had made the right choice and that it had all been worth it.

Ari’s thoughts were interrupted when there was a knock at the door, the human getting up to go get it. When he opened it he was surprised to find Tyr standing there with a smile on his face. “Hey, I got wind of what room you guys were in and decided to come down and congratulate you personally,” Tyr said. “Mind if I come in?”

“Yeah, of course,” Ari replied as he let the lizardman in. “I’m sort of surprised you’re not salty about the loss.”

“It was my final year anyway,” Tyr replied with a shrug as he took a few steps in before turning back to face Ari. “Plus if I was going to lose my title I would rather it be you than anyone else. To be honest I had been considering visiting you even before the match, thought that maybe I could get a little rematch.”

Before Ari could say anything the lizardman leaned forward and kissed him, causing the human’s heart to flutter as it brought back the memories of the last time they had done this. Tyr had always been the more assertive one and as those clawed hands slid up under his shirt he couldn’t help but grab his scaled sides back. He could feel his cock aching as the lizardman’s tongue darted in his mouth, but then Ari remembered his agreement in the first place and knew that he can’t go any further with his old friend and lover. Fortunately there was a cough that caught Tyr’s attention and both of them turned to see Kirandi standing there with a slightly surprised look on his face.

“Oh sorry,” Tyr said, slightly flustered. “I uh… I’m…”

“Relax, we’re all playing for the same team,” Kirandi replied with a smirk as he started to walk towards the two of them as Ari looked at the wolf in question. “Now I know that you said you were in a weird place Ari but as the champion I think its only fair that those you’ve defeated in combat pay proper tribute to you. It could just be for tonight and no one has to know, if Tyr doesn’t mind sharing.”

“I think that’s a great idea,” Tyr replied as he grinned and took off his shirt while Kirandi did the same. “C’mon Ari, you have two handsome guys willing to pamper you, surely you can’t say no to that. Just relax and let us do all the work, champion.”

Ari found himself practically melting as the wolf and lizardman both began to caress his body, pinning him against the wall as Tyr resumed kissing him while Kirandi started to lick his pec with his tongue while breathing in his scent. Never in his wildest dreams did Ari ever expect to have this happen to him, but as he continued to make out with his old friend he felt a growing sense of entitlement to it. He was the one that one the championship, his lust addled mind thought as the lizardman took off his pants and exposed his already hard cock, why shouldn’t he enjoy the fruits of it? Plus the demon merely said that he couldn’t give his seed, so as long as he didn’t cum he wouldn’t be breaking their agreement.

The three quickly moved to the bed and Ari was placed on his back, which allowed him to watch as Tyr and Kirandi groped and kissed each other for a bit while the wolf got his pants pulled down. He was still wearing his jock and with a leering grin he pulled it off and tossed it at the human, then slid down at his side so his fur caressed him. Ari was so hard that it almost hurt as the wolf once more began to kiss and lick his nipples, causing him to squirm as Tyr finished getting his human body unclothed before crawling between his legs. As those scaly fingers pressed against his feet Ari felt another surge of pleasure just like the one that he got when Kirandi stroked his nipples for the first time, bucking his hips up in the air and practically smacking Tyr with his own member before the lizardman continued to move forward.

As Ari continued to have the wolf lavish attention on his body it distracted him to the point where he didn’t notice that Tyr had straddled his thighs until his cock was grabbed to guide it into his tailhole. This wasn’t going to be a mere adoration session, he realized as he felt the head of his maleness start to get pushed up between those scaled cheeks, the lizardman had intended on fully celebrating with his entire body… including the inside. The human realized at this point that there was no way that he was going to be able to hold back. He either had to stop everything before Tyr went any further and try to explain why he suddenly spurned them, Kirandi for the second time, or he was going to let the lizardman plunge his tailhole down on needy member as he felt the ring of muscle press against it.

…fuck that demon, Ari thought as Tyr lowered himself down and impaled himself on the sizable cock that the human had gotten. As soon as the sensitive flesh of his shaft was enveloped by the inner walls of the other man any thought of the consequences of his actions flew out the window. He had already won the championship anyway and there was no way he was going to let the two handsome, muscular anthros worshipping his body get turned away. This was his prize, his victory, and he was ready to celebrate with those that he had defeated as the wolf got on his chest and presented his own tailhole to him. The demon may have given him this power, Ari thought with a defiant smirk as he grabbed Kirandi’s hips and brought them to his head, but this was his body and he was going to use it anyway he saw fit.

Ari breathed in the scent of the lupine before burying his face in between the furry globes and penetrating the hole with his tongue just like his cock had done with the lizardman. Just like on the wrestling mat he felt a certain sense of power as he pushed in as deeply as he could, feeling Tyr begin to push down more to impale himself further on the throbbing rod while Kirandi did the same to get more of the wiggling tongue inside him. He could feel their toned bodies rubbing against his and felt their own members pressed against him, the two men stroking each other off while they continued to pleasure the one that was beneath them. Despite wanting to draw it out as much as possible Ari could feel his pent-up need finally get the better of him and he let out a shout muffled by the wolf on top of him as he orgasmed, filling the lizardman with his seed after the anthro had hilted himself to take it as deeply as he could.

The other two quickly reached their own climax as well, their bodies shuddering just like his did as all three rode the high until it finally settled into the warm post-coital afterglow. Kirandi and Tyr both eventually got up and helped the exhausted Ari to the shower so that they could all clean up, and though it hardly fit the three of them they continued to grope one another as they washed off. Already Ari could feel himself getting ready to go another round, but settled for a cuddle session with the two anthros flanking his body. As they curled up against him with him in the middle the human noted that he seemed to be even taller than before as the other two guys he was with nuzzled up against his chest before all three began to drift off to sleep…

About an hour later Ari found himself slowly opening his eyes as he felt the presence of another in the room, and when his vision became unblurred he saw the face of the drow demon staring down at him with glowing red eyes. “I see someone is enjoying their victory,” Ibaxi said as Ari practically bolted upright, though he stopped when he felt Tyr and Kirandi next to him stir slightly. “Don’t worry, they won’t be waking up for a while, not until our conversation is concluded.”

Ari found himself just nodding and extracted himself from between the two as he felt the confidence and bravado from before leave his body as he sat on the edge of the bed while the nearly naked demon stood there. “I realize that I may have made a mistake here,” Ari said as Ibaxi crossed his arms over his bare chest. “But I was put in an extraordinary situation as you can see.”

“What I see is that one day after I fulfilled my end of the bargain you went and broke your contract to me,” Ibaxi replied with a hint of anger in his voice. “There are desires and temptations everywhere, especially when you become as desirable as you are, and it is expected that even when you find the allure of others that you would be able to contain yourself in order to repay your debts. The fact that you have the allure of a demonic creature and the body to match doesn’t forgive you from the promise you made to me.”

“The allure of a demonic creature?” Ari repeated, feeling his admonishment get replaced with anger as he stood up. “Wait, are you saying that part of the reason why Kirandi suddenly got so handsy with me before and why Tyr came to my room was because of my deal with you? Did you… did you know that they were going to do this?”

“Did I know that you suddenly becoming a muscular wrestling legend was going to attract two guys that you’ve fooled around with before?” Ibaxi replied as he bared his fangs slightly. “Of course I knew, the fact that you didn’t makes this your problem. The fact of the matter is that you have broken a contract with me, and as such you’re going to need to be punished for your insolence.”

The bite of the words that came out of the demon’s mouth was once more enough to knock Ari out of his swaggering demeanor, especially as those eyes seemed to glow brighter. “Hey, I’m sure that I can pay you back some other way,” Ari quickly offered. “What if I just offered more of my essence? I promise that I won’t have sex anymore for as long as you need me too.”

“That deal was taken off the table as soon as you gave your essence to the lizardman,” Ibaxi explained. “Even if I did have a means to harvest you it would be tainted and much less useful to me, plus that assumes I want you to have a second chance in the first place. Oh no, my dear Ari, you’ve made your bed and now you’re going to have to sleep in it, but at least you’ll have company when you do.”

The demon gave Ari one last smirk before he disappeared, and as he did he saw Kirandi and Tyr shift in their sleep as well. Though they seemed to be mildly perturbed that the one they had been cuddled against was no longer there the human had no intention on rejoining them as he began to pace back and forth. He had broken a deal with a demon, and as Ibaxi said it had been right after he had won the championship as well. It didn’t matter if the cards had been stacked against him to give into his desires, he had done so not only willingly but with gusto as he remembered his time with them.

Did that mean that his new physique would be taken away from him, Ari thought worriedly as he looked at the trophy that was proudly on display on the desk. Maybe the demon would find some means to manufacture a scandal that would take away his win and give it to Tyr, thus shaming him and possibly getting him kicked out of college? Suddenly his idea to cross this demon was becoming more and more detrimental as more ways that the demon could mess with him. As he felt his anxiety rise up however he heard a groan saw Kirandi wake up and look around, which caused Tyr to do the same as the lizardman reached over to his pants and pulled out his phone.

“Oh good, it’s still today,” Tyr said with a sigh of relief before looking over at Ari. “I should probably get back to my room before my disappearance is noticed… you alright Ari? You look like you’ve seen a ghost.”

“No, I’m fine,” Ari quickly replied. “Just… savoring the win, that’s all.”

“Well you definitely deserved it,” Tyr stated with a wink as he stood up and stretched his scaly body. “Speaking of such things I had a lot of fun tonight, just like old times minus our lupine friend here. Is there anything else that I can do for our champion before I head out?”

“Yeah, you could put that muzzle of yours around my dick one more time,” Ari said as he leaned against the wall and wrapped his fingers around his erection. The human surprised himself with how aggressively he said it as he brought up a finger and curled it to beckon the lizardman forward before turning to the wolf. “In fact I think there’s plenty for the two of you.”

Tyr and Kirandi were more than happy to oblige him and soon he found the heads of the two anthros nuzzling against his crotch, Ari pressing up against the wall he had leaned against as he felt an intense amount of pleasure coming form his groin. As the tongues of the two licked against the base of his shaft and his sack he brought his hands down and pressed them closer while he let out a moan. For a few moments the threat of the punishment from the demon left his mind as it was replaced with the flood of lust, the human once more feeling that surge of confidence at having two of his opponents suck him off. As he watched them lick against his throbbing shaft he had an stray thought of wishing he had two members to suck on as he watched them.

Eventually the two moved on to focus on his cock and as their tongues coiled around it Ari began to feel a strange tingling beyond the usual pleasure. As the two took turns engulfing the head of it in their maws Ari saw the flesh begin to darken, and before he could say or do anything the head of his cock began to turn completely black and start to grow bigger. Though Ari could clearly see it happening the other two didn’t seem to notice or care and he nearly doubled over as the increasingly swollen tip suddenly began to split, a divot forming in the flesh that started to creep down to the rest of his shaft. Though it shocked Ari it was hard to react with the pleasure that was coming from it as he suddenly had a cock with two heads on it, though as the coloration progressed downwards the division did as well.

All Ari could do was stand there as he got double the pleasure when both the wolf and lizardman began to suck on each one, following the split downwards as one cock became two right before his eyes. When they bobbed their heads up and down he could see that having two cocks wasn’t the only changes that were happening to him, feeling the shafts morph in the muzzles of the two males until it looked completely inhuman on his body. In fact… as he looked down at Kirandi’s erect shaft he could see a lot of similarity in them, though it was getting increasingly hard to focus as the two shafts completely separated from one another while the flesh at the base swelled into a knot. This was insane, Ari thought to himself, but the sight of two naked muscular men on their knees with each one trying to get more of those new members into their maws was exhilarating and he found himself wanting even more.

Both Tyr and Kirandi let out a muffled grunt as Ari slid his hands against the back of their heads and pushed them forward, watching their throats bulge with the head of his cock pushing into it. The two deep-throated his member like the champion he was and as he took control and moved his hips to slide them in and out he failed to notice that his cock wasn’t the only thing to change. As he pumped into the two the flesh around his new members gew slightly baggy and bright red fur sprouted from it, forming into a slit for his new appendages while his sack grew bigger. By the time he began to flood the throats of the two with his seed the entirety of his groin was covered in red fur with darker black starting to encroach on his muscular thighs.

For a while the noses of the two wrestlers bumped up against his swollen knots before they pulled off, the two grinning up at Ari before giving his twin shafts a kiss and standing up. When Ari pulled his hands back he saw that they had started to mutate as well, except instead of the red fur that covered his groin it looked like grey skin as his fingernails became red claws. With the two no longer in his line of sight he could also see that his feet had grown considerably as well and he no longer had five toes, instead there were three powerful digits with the same red claws as his fingers but much bigger. They looked like they belonged on an anthro… just like his new members as he saw them begin to retreat back into the new sheath. “Well now I really have to get going,” Tyr said as Ari just looked at them in confusion, wondering why they weren’t freaking out that he had suddenly gotten two cocks and other strange new features. “It was fun you two, maybe I’ll come to the next championship and we can double-team Ari again when he becomes a repeat champion.”

Ari continued to just stand there as Kirandi escorted the lizardman to the door, then came back and asked if he was interested in ordering anything before turning in for the night. When Ari just shook his head the wolf nodded and went back to reading his book, shifting the sheets that they had messed up with their fun. When it was clear that his lupine teammate wasn’t going to comment on his new features he went to the bathroom to look for himself if there was anything else that was changed on him that he couldn’t see, only to almost bang his head when he tried to get in. That hadn’t been a problem before and given the height of the threshold he wagered he had gotten quite the growth spurt and was probably at least seven if not seven and a half feet tall.

When he got to the mirror Ari saw that while he had grown taller it hadn’t affected his physique, in fact it looked like he had put on even more muscle as he put his hands against his pectorals. It was hard to tell if they had grown though because his hands were swollen too, though he could see a patch of red fur that was growing between them. His black hair also looked a bit shaggier and when he had pulled back his lips he saw that his teeth were sharper as well. Was this the punishment that the demon was talking about, was he turning into one himself?

But if that was the case than why didn’t Tyr or Kirandi say anything about it, especially since he literally transformed right in front of their faces. Unless… when he saw Ibaxi sometimes it was clear that others didn’t notice him, not to mention he had put the two to sleep so they could talk, was it possible he was making it so they didn’t see the changes happening to him? As he looked down he saw that his pants were still out in the hallway nearby, and as he put them on they fit him like a glove even with his newly enhanced form. This was more than just mental manipulation, Ari realized, somehow the demon was altering his reality to make it so that he was the only one that saw what was happening.

“Of course I’m shifting your reality to your new form,” Ibaxi’s voice suddenly said as Ari nearly jumped when he saw the drow in the reflection of the mirror behind him, though when he turned around there was no one there. “This is a punishment, not a death sentence. You may have anthros in your world but suddenly going from human to monster will attract a lot of unnecessary attention.”

“Alright, you made your point!” Ari whispered angrily as he leaned into the mirror. “You can end this now.”

“Oh, I’m just getting started Ari,” Ibaxi replied with a chuckle. “You wanted to become a creature of lust and defied a demon to do so, I’m just giving you what you want. And trust me when I say that we’re just getting started…”

Ari let out an inhuman growl and punched the mirror right where Ibaxi stood, only for it to shatter as the pieces fell to the ground. “What was that?” Kirandi called out, the wolf appearing in the doorway to see the human looking at his uninjured hand in slight shock. “Ah man, again? You really have to watch that aggression of yours off the mat Ari, I’ll call housekeeping to see if we can get this cleaned up so we aren’t avoiding glass all night.”

Hearing the mention of his temper not only surprised Ari but also brought up a new feeling in him, a desire to show the wolf just what aggression was as he pinned him to the bed and bred him for the rest of the night. He quickly shook it off though and put his hands against his head, only to feel that his ears had grown more pointed and that there was a thin layer of fur covering them. The changes weren’t just going to be physical, Ari realized, and if his encounter with the cobra in the locker room before he had broken the contract was any indicator it was going to get worse. There had to be a way to settle his debt with Ibaxi and get himself changed back, but the demon was going to be illusive and tomorrow they were leaving to head back to college.

After housekeeping had come in and cleaned up the mess Ari decided to go to sleep, opting to stay in his own bed despite Kirandi offering to share his and stated he was merely exhausted. In reality he was anything but and it took all his willpower not to jump on the lupine laying in the bed next to his. He knew however that would just be giving into his lusts once more and it seems that whenever he did indulged in his new form it only corrupted him further. Likely it was irony on the part of the demon, since he couldn’t keep it in his pants it would be the very thing that hastened his inevitable punishment.
