Winter Wonderland is eleven tales all centered around the theme of fun in the snow! From tropical getaways to chilly nights to cold camping, this a great book to read around the fire. Mostly M/M content with a lot of TF action, but other fun kinks as well.

A thief breaks into a mall in order to steal donations that are being represented by a new company called Big Package Deerlivery. Little did he know that the reindeer men were pulling in some overtime themselves.

It was the night before Christmas Eve, and the stores had just shut down for the day; those who worked the tills and the stockrooms were leaving for the extended break where they no longer had to process gifts for others and could share their own with family and friends. Snow had just started falling on the ground as the streetlamps flickered to life, and the usual bustle of traffic on the streets wasn't there, save for the occasional car. Most people were getting ready to spread some holiday cheer, and as the night wore on, the stores and shops went as silent as they would for the next few days. For most, it meant that there would be no going in to browse the wares or grab anything, but that was not what Jack was there for as he walked around the back alley of a vast department store.

Jack was a thief; he saw no interest in holding any sort of job, and as he managed to haul his rather rotund belly over the fire escape railing, he would much rather take what he wanted instead of having to do anything for it. The only thing he would consider for work was the window he jimmied open after turning off the alarm that they had mistakenly put on the wrong part of the frame. He had seen an easy mark when ducking through this area to avoid getting noticed by some rather unscrupulous people he owed money to, the red light blinking against the glass that practically begged him to come inside and take what was in there. The best part of it being the day before Christmas Eve is there was usually a huge sales push of last-minute gifts, which meant a lot of money in the safe that wouldn't have a chance to get to the bank until they opened after the holiday weekend.

Once he had ensured he wouldn't bring unwanted attention to himself, Jack opened the window and slipped inside, looking around before closing it behind him. He found himself in a small office that was likely next to the large department area, which was three stories with a lobby that exposed all three floors, and since he was on the inside, it was easy for him to unlock the door and let himself out. Though his main target would be a safe, he knew that he needed to check the front registers as well since sometimes they just locked them instead of collecting the till for the night, and while it didn't always happen when they did, it was much easier than breaking into a safe. There was also one other potential target that he could hit, and as he got to the ground floor and looked around the giant tree at the bottom of the lobby, he found it.

The smile on Jack's face widened when he saw the clear plastic box full of cash, people feeding into it all day, every day for the last few weeks, and protected only by a flimsy lock. As he got out a hammer and screwdriver to bust the lock, he couldn't help but notice who the sponsor was for this particular charity box. "Big Package Deerlivery?" Jack said, rolling his eyes as he saw the risqu? picture of naked anthropomorphic deer men, safe for the gift-wrapped boxes they held strategically over their bodies. "And they call me a degenerate."

Jack returned to cracking the lock to take the easy money out of the case when he heard something that caused him to pause. At first, he thought it was voices, but when he looked at his watch and saw it was midnight, he found it hard to believe anyone would be working this late. Yet as he continued to stand there in silence, he could hear something hard hitting the tile floor and the incomprehensible sound of two people discussing things, and as they quickly got closer, he found himself with a big problem suddenly. The area where the charity box was entirely exposed, and as he looked around frantically, he saw the only place he could go was underneath the giant tree that went up all three stories.

Despite the floor being littered with wires, he made his way underneath while trying not to sway it, getting far enough where he believed the shadows would at least provide him with some cover. As the sounds got louder, he could hear something else besides the strange, heavy footsteps and the two voices... which he identified as sleigh bells. Perhaps there was some sort of holiday party in the back that he wasn't aware of, Jack thought to himself as he continued to shift his large form about, though he didn't remember seeing any cars when he first scouted the place. At this point, all he could do was wait, and as he remained underneath the tree, he found himself blinking as he could see the feet of the two when they walked into his view...

...or rather, their hooves could be seen.

It was the source of the strange clopping noises, and at first, Jack just thought they were some sort of bizarre shoes, but as they got closer to the edge of the tree, he could see the fur that grew over them was genuine and attached to their equally furry legs. "I wish we would have brought the dolly to haul all these," the first voice said. "I know there's not a lot there but it's going to take us like three trips at this rate."

"Then maybe you should have stacked your boxes better," the second voice, this one a bit deeper, said. "Plus, they don't want to clean the marks left by it, so we got to do it by hand. This is one of our first major retail clients that's not online, and we do it for charity, so I don't mind taking an extra half an hour to ensure we keep the opportunity."

"Speaking of charity," the first voice said, the two stopping near the podium with the box. "Are we supposed to collect that, too?"

"Nah, Luke already got it in the office," the second voice explained. "That's just rice paper that simulates money so that it looks like the box is full during the holiday season; after the store closes Luke always replaces it to ensure it stays safe while still maintaining the aesthetic."

The money wasn't even real, Jack thought angrily, but as they got close to the tree something caused one to fall, and as he continued to keep the packages up and use his own body to cushion the floor, Jack felt his jaw drop and had to cover his mouth to keep from making a noise. The one that was on the floor wasn't human; the guy was covered top to bottom with dark brown fur over his muscular frame, and as he let out a grunt from hitting the ground, he could see that their face was more like a deer and framed with a set of antlers. He could also see the source of the jingling as the guy only appeared to be wearing a harness with a few silver bells scattered about and a bright red loincloth covering his backside and front, though with him on the ground. Jack got an eyeful of the speedo underneath and the bulge it contained. He could only lie in shock as he observed the man set the packages aside and get helped back onto his hooves. Then, he grabbed the boxes and began to walk back towards the door.

As soon as he saw the front door open and close, the first thing Jack thought to do was run. Something bizarre was going on here, and the last thing he wanted was to be cornered by some sort of weird reindeer aliens who ran a package delivery service. Unfortunately, as he let his panic get the better of him, Jack immediately felt his leg get tangled up in one of the light cords from below, which caused him to get pulled backward. With his body already hunched over, he couldn't do much to stop his momentum. He fell back until he felt himself hit something hard, hearing a loud snap followed immediately by a dull creaking noise.

Damnit, Jack thought as the branches that had been low to the floor suddenly lifted as the giant tree began to tilt. He tried to turn himself around to stop it, but the damage had already been done as it fell backward into the store. The thief put his hands to his head as the whole thing came crashing down with a loud series of bangs and the shattering of glass until finally, it came to rest, with half of the tree curled up by the balconies of the higher floor while the rest lay in a heap. Decorations and lights were strewn about everywhere in the destruction, and as Jack looked at what had just happened in disbelief, he heard the front door slam and saw two half-naked muscular reindeer men staring at him in both shock and anger.

For a few seconds, the two stared at each other as Jack stood in front of the destruction he caused, and when he turned to try and run, both immediately ran after. With his poor physique and the other two looking like professional athletes, it didn't take long before the human felt himself get tackled to the ground, and as soon as they did, he heard the jingling of bells as they pulled his hands behind his back. As Jack shouted that they couldn't detain him like this, his words fell on deaf ears as he felt his wrists and ankles get bound before they were pulled back and connected. When the two had finished hog-tying the thief, they stepped in front of his vision once more, and the human saw that the two had used their harnesses and belts to tie him up as they crossed their arms around their bare chests.

The more giant black and white-furred reindeer told the smaller brown-furred one that Jack had seen earlier to go and get someone named Luke, which he promptly did as the bound man watched the naked reindeer run off. When the human tried to get the attention of the one who detained him, the other reindeer just scoffed and waited patiently while standing in the buff. Jack wasn't sure what made him angrier, that he had been captured by these two or that he dared to stand there like that to flaunt their forms. Despite his protests, the other reindeer remained silent for minutes until suddenly, two sets of hooves clopping on the tile could be heard rapidly approaching them.

"So this is the piece of shit that tried to steal from our charity box," a third reindeer said that walked up with the first one, his body covered in midnight black fur with his muscles accentuated by a black leather harness as he looked over between the two that had captured him. "Any excuse to take off your clothes, huh? Go into the mailing room and get the rest of the packages sorted; I'll get your leathers back and make you decent again once I do the same to this guy first."

"What are you, their leader?" Jack said as he tried to muster up some bravado; he saw Luke smirk while the other two ran off. "Listen, I don't know what's going on with these... costumes of yours, but you can't just detain me here thinking I was going to do something. Once the police come, they'll tell you that since the lock on your box isn't broken and nothing is taken, they'll just put a trespass on me, and I'll be out in a day."

"Seems like someone is quite confident in themselves," Luke replied as he walked over to the other man, the human squirming as he felt a pair of hands rifle around in his pockets until he pulled out his lockpick set, a small crowbar, his pocket flashlight, and other tools that he had brought along. "Normally, I would find that an endearing trait in someone, but considering the source, I do not. First, let's not try to kid each other here; you know that these aren't costumes, and I know that you aren't just the janitor or whatever story you're trying to make up in your head right now. Second, I find it rather humorous that you just assumed that I called the police on you at all."

The statement and the way it was delivered caused the blood in Jack's veins to go cold. This was not some sort of bluff; he could tell that this strange creature had not called the police and, from the sound of it, had no intention of doing so. The situation suddenly turned from bad to dangerous as the human found himself with an unknown variable in the heavily muscled reindeer. "So what are you going to do then?" Jack asked. "Going to kidnap me? Kill me?"

"Ah, where would the fun be in that," Luke replied as he put a hoof right down in front of Jack's face and leaned to the point where the hot breath of the reindeer blew into his face. "Plus, you happen to be in luck. My job is to train others to become successful, productive reindeer, and since I'm a big believer in rehabilitation, that's what we're going to do with you. Normally, my services are sought after by others who come to me, who are not usually lazy, selfish creatures that would rather steal from a charity than earn it since it's the holidays. I'm feeling generous, and I'm going to make you a deal. We take the rest of the night, and you put things back to right while under my hoof, and when the sun comes up, you can walk out the front door free and clear, you got it?"

"And if I refuse?" Jack asked, feeling himself swallowing hard as the reindeer leaned in even closer until those lips were right next to his ear.

"Then I will find much more creative ways of teaching you that stealing is wrong," Luke whispered, feeling the sneer that crossed the reindeer's face. "And you will find that I can be very, very creative."

The words sent a chill down Jack's spine, and despite his typical arrogant nature, he found himself up against a creature that seemed even more so and dead set on teaching him a lesson. On the one hand, the idea of doing something for an accident felt worse than going to jail, even if he was the cause. But even if he wasn't hog-tied at the moment, it was also clear that this guy could probably run him down even if he tried to make a break for the front doors to try and trigger an alarm or get out onto the nearly deserted street. As those deep blue eyes stared into him, Jack finally decided that he would have to take the night of community service and hoped it wouldn't be too bad.

As soon as Jack took the deal, Luke smirked and went over to an area that was out of sight for the bound human, and when he came back, he was holding onto a backpack that had the letters BPD and a reindeer silhouette that he remembered was the logo for the company. The reindeer dropped the bag before Jack and pulled something out of it. It turned out to be a strip of bright red leather with the word TRAINEE in bold black letters. He had this fetish gear on him and ready to use, Jack thought with a scowl on his face as Luke put the collar around his neck while he commented that they might need an extender. Once he had done that, the reindeer stepped out of his field of vision.

"Since you got so much cleaning ahead of you and not a lot of time, we're going to need to get you big and strong," Luke said behind Jack as the sounds of something clicking and the rusting of paper before he suddenly found himself with a bunch of crumpled up fake money in front of him. "I could just change you, but I feel like you need to learn a little something about humility and also feel the consequences of your actions, so we're going to use this to start the process. And before you ask, yes, I am turning you into a reindeer like me, and yes, it is temporary, and no, you can't do or say anything to get out of it, so do what I ask so we can move on to the task at hand."

Oh god, this creature was about to turn him into a freak like him! If it weren't for the fact that he stood there larger than life already with his harness and thong, leaving little to the imagination, he wouldn't believe it for a second as his mind raced to try and figure out how to get out of this. "But... I don't understand..." Jack said as he tried to stall. "What you are trying to tell me to do..."

Jack gasped as he felt the hoof of the reindeer press gently but firmly on his back and push him forward, pressing his face into the pile of fake money. "Eat it," Luke demanded. "Even though it's just rice paper, it's the object of your desires, so you should consume it to try and leave your selfish ways. Now you can eat it like that, or I will feed it to you, and I will not be using my hands to put it in your mouth."

Before Jack could say that he wouldn't be able to get it in his mouth in his current situation, he suddenly felt the leather straps that were around his wrists and ankles get released, causing his limbs to flop down to the tile while the hoof continued to sit square on his lower back. Though the pressure was light, the human knew that it could change in a heartbeat, and with nothing else that he could do, he began to take the various pieces of currency and put them in his mouth. As he had imagined, it had no taste since it was just rice paper, but as they began to melt on his tongue and inside, he could feel a tingling sensation radiate outwards. By the time he had followed his first few bills, he could feel his lips beginning to thicken, and as he brought his fingers to his face to touch them, he saw that his fingernails had turned black, and bright white fur was sprouting on the back of his hands.

"I would suggest consuming your meal rather quickly," Luke said as Jack felt something clipped to his collar. You have a lot of work ahead of you, and if you don't finish everything by morning, then I will not consider your end of the deal completed. So hurry up and eat that money. If it makes it better, think of it as taking from me while I take your humanity from you."

While the idea that Luke had floated to him didn't make it any better, Jack found himself trying to push more money into his mouth to get it over with. As the pile quickly grew smaller since there was no substance to any of it, he found it was getting easier, mainly because his jaws started stretching out into a muzzle as a pair of antlers poked out of his head. He could also feel his shoes getting tighter, and as he shoveled more of the fake bills into his growing maw, he also tried to pull the shoes from his feet, only to feel the seams pop as his toes pushed their way out while the nails grew and merged. He could hear Luke chuckle above him, and though his footwear wasn't anything special, it irritated him that he would have to get another pair after stealing those and that he might be walking home barefoot.

By the time he finished the pile, he let out a burp and slowly got up to his knees, and his clothes felt strange around him as he did. As the last bills slid down his throat, his neck shrunk slightly, and his skull reformed, reaching up and feeling the small pair of antlers that grew past his stretched-out ears. While not as big as the one hovering above him, the snout that he grew was also reasonably substantial, and his nose had merged into his face. Despite that and the hooves that he had grown, the most significant change was in his overall body type, as the fat that had grown around his form, especially his midsection, had melted away. He even saw a bit of muscle where his clothing was tight while other parts were loose and baggy.

Just as he was about to stand up, Jack felt the leash attached to his collar pull down and put him back on his knees. "Where do you think you're going?" Luke asked as the partially transformed human looked back and not only saw that the reindeer had put the leash on the ground and stomped on it to keep him down but also had the box that contained the rest of the money before he dumped it out in front of him. "You think that scrawny form is going to cut it? Keep eating your greed, and don't make me wait; I don't take kindly to rookie reindeer trainees who put me behind."

For the next fifteen minutes, Jack continued to take piles of the money and eat them, which, as he did directly, seemed to fuel his transformation more. As the sleeves of his shirt ripped, it exposed the white fur that had grown down his broadening shoulders, and when it started to get tight around his chest, he reached up and ripped it with his bare hands. The sudden freedom allowed Jack to breathe, and as he took a second to look down at himself, he saw that the flabby chest he was used to staring at was gone, replaced with an actual set of chest muscles while he watched his stomach deflate. It was a strange sensation to see, considering that he had lived with such a thing, but a tug on the collar reminded him of his task at hand, and he continued to eat the remainder of the money until there was nothing left.

"Very good," Luke said as he allowed the other man to stand again, watching the fur slowly creep over his chest while his pants were growing tighter by the second. "Why don't you start cleaning up the smaller stuff while your changes progress so you can get a head start? I will call up to see how the other two are doing and get them to put their pants back on. You'll be off leash, so this is the first chance that you have to try and turn that life of yours around; and just because you have the body to do it, I assure you that if you run, I will catch you and bind your limbs so that you'll be picking up branches with your teeth."

The dominant attitude was still robust with the other reindeer even as Jack found himself eye to eye with the other man. Though he usually didn't like to be talked to that way, he found himself just nodding and picking up the smaller branches scattered when the tree fell and sweeping up the broken decorations. When he had a pan full of broken glass, he looked around before asking Luke where to put it, and the reindeer pointed to a nearby trash can. As he went to go and put it in, Jack nearly stumbled as he felt his spine pop, causing him to hunch over, and when he stood up straight once more, he found that he was slightly taller than before as he felt his belt-tightening against his waist once more. With him initially losing weight, he had to hold it when he walked, but as he continued to pick up, he started to pant the more pressure he felt as his shirtless upper torso became more sculpted and furrier.

"Uh... Luke..." Jack said as he returned to where the other reindeer had just hung up his cell phone, feeling those blue eyes stare up at him as he watched the partially transformed human practically waddle over. "I... I need some pants; these are about to burst."

"Indeed they are," Luke replied with a smirk as he reached down and grabbed the swollen front of the jeans, which caused Jack to jump. "I probably should have told you to take them off, but I do love it when someone gets their new reindeer cock, and you can see it throbbing through the fabric like it needs to be seen. Anyway, it's too late to take those off, but I can help you expedite the process, and you can think of it like shedding the former life of being a degenerate loser and moving on to something better."

Jack felt his jaw drop as the other man continued to massage him down there, though what surprised him even more was that he hadn't immediately tried to deck the other guy for doing so. He didn't understand it, but something was happening to him, not only in his physical appearance but mentally as well. While before, the words of his trainer... of the other reindeer had irritated and annoyed him, but the more he followed what he said, the more it felt good to do it. Not to mention, the sensation of those skilled fingers brushing along the underside of his cramped package caused him to shudder in delight, and when he didn't show any signs of moving away, Luke moved in and started to squeeze and grope with both. Already, the seams of the legs had started to tear as white fur pushed its way out, and as Jack groaned, he heard the sound of metal breaking as his zipper gave up the ghost.

With the additional stimulation, the button on his pants fired off like a bullet, and Jack nearly collapsed in relief as his cock sprang free, though it was hard to believe that it was his as the bronzed flesh glistened in the light it was three times as long as his old one and twice as thick. "Looks like you're finally free," Luke said as he pressed himself up against Jack, moving him until the white-furred creature was up against a pillar as the fingers of the other man stroked against his growing erection. "You know that I train in other things as well."

Jack could feel the muzzle approaching him, and even as he felt the pleasure coming from the stroking of his recently released member, there was some part of him that still rebelled against it. This leather-clad muscular reindeer was pressed against him, and as their fur brushed against one another, he could see Luke leaning in for a kiss. Though he tried to tell himself this was just a means to an end so that he could escape this place, he found himself leaning down to meet the embrace. "Of course, you have way too much work to do to be thinking about that," Luke said breathily as he pulled back, giving the shocked man a wink and a squeeze on the shaft of his cock. "Better get back to it; you're wasting the night."

"I... uh..." Jack tried to find the words as he suddenly found himself standing there alone, letting out a slight grunt as his thighs thickened even more, and he felt his belt pop off his body while the rest of his pants hit the ground. "About those pants..."

"I don't have any for you," Luke replied as he returned to the checkout counters where the other two reindeer were putting their pants back on. "Looks like you're going to have to do it naked, unless the lustful stares of three other men bother you, to which I might remind your fragile sense of sensibility that one of them had just started to masturbate you in the middle of a department store and you were all for it."

Jack found himself snorting through his widening nostrils but knew that Luke was right; these creatures had affected him somehow, and for the first time in his life, he cared about what someone else thought as he went back to it. With the last stitch of his clothing off of him, he couldn't help but look at himself in the mirror and marvel at his new body. His muscles had only grown denser during this time, and any semblance of his former rotund self was gone, though he still had a few large patches of human skin on his body most of his form covered by the thick white fur that had grown over it. As he put a hand to his face and rubbed it against the reindeer muzzle that had grown out of it, he couldn't see much that reminded him of what he used to be... and part of him wondered if that was a bad thing before he began to continue the work of cleaning up.

As the night wore on and the clean-up grew more complicated, Jack, the white-furred reindeer, quickly realized he had a problem. While he had gotten a lot of the broken ornaments and such swept up, the issue came with the tree itself, mainly because it was vast and complicated to navigate around, plus he needed help pulling off the branches to bag them. Even though he was nearly seven feet tall at this point and his body bulged with muscle, he still couldn't get around to most of it, not to mention he would need a chainsaw to get the pieces small enough where he could put them into the industrial trash bags that the other reindeer gave him.

"Just wanted to see how my trainee is doing," Luke said, Jack looking up from the pile of pine needles he was sweeping into a bag to see how the other reindeer was going. "How is the clean-up going?"

"Not well," Jack replied with a loud sigh as he looked at the bags already collected in the corner. "I'm not sure how much time I have left, but I've been working my tail off to try and get this done by the deadline and only made a tent in the actual tree itself."

"First of all, it would be a shame to work a tail like that off," Luke replied as Jack jumped slightly when the reindeer walked around him and slid his fingers along the short tail that had recently grown in before squeezing his butt. "Second, I think it's time for you to take a little break and learn something we've all known for quite some time. As you look around this area, I want you to point out any potential tools you could see to help you with this mess you created."

Jack scanned the area and saw the other two reindeer sitting on the help desk counter since they had finished loading their packages. After a while, he just shook his head. "It's alright," Luke continued as he patted Jack on the shoulder, which he had to reach up slightly to do since he was a head taller than him at this point. "I can tell that you're trying to make a change in there, and I can tell you that part of the reason you don't see anything out there is because you've been used to being selfish when you were human. Taking what you want, not caring about others, means that you've had to operate alone since you pushed away all the good people and didn't trust the bad."

"So what you're saying... is..." Jack said as he scratched behind his floppy ear while returning to the other two. "They are the tools that can help me?"

"All three of us, but yes," Luke replied, turning his head and whistling to bring the other two over before looking back at Jack and running a hand down the thick pelt of fur that covered his washboard abs. "But this isn't just taking; we're not doing that anymore, so you'll need to give us something in exchange for the help we'll give you. Luckily those two are horny for any guy they come across, and I happen to enjoy those on the more muscular side as well; plus, you can spend some time off those new hooves of yours."

As Jack saw the other two reindeer approaching, he saw that they had already started to take off their loincloths as Luke did the same with his thong, suddenly finding himself surrounded by thick cocks as Luke continued to stroke up and down his body. While he wasn't quite sure he was ready for having three other guys with him, especially since a few hours ago he had trouble with one stroking him, the reindeer knew that time was of the essence, and he wanted to make sure that he honored his arrangement with the one who had allowed him to begin with. They walked him over to the information desk and told him to climb on top of it, though it still didn't stop him from trembling slightly as he felt himself get put into position.

After some coaching, Jack found himself lying there with his head hanging off one side of the information desk while his legs did the same thing on the other. The marble countertop was just big enough so that the other two reindeer wouldn't have to wait as he felt his antlers bump up against the wooden side of the desk. The brown-furred reindeer, the smallest of the three, climbed up on the counter and grinned at the man beneath him while also starting to line himself up. Though Jack felt himself growing increasingly nervous as the three began to stroke their cocks he reminded himself that if he helped them all at once, he would be able to get back to work faster at his tasks.

Since the brown-furred reindeer wanted to get himself situated before the other two started to rock Jack's body back and forth, he grabbed the thick reindeer cock. He began to push himself down on it, the one in front of him holding down his muscular chest to keep him still as his new shaft disappeared into the male on top of him. Oh fuck, Jack thought to himself as he let out a moan, this was amazing! Never had he let anyone else get close to him, and as he felt those tight walls slide around his member, he could feel the pleasure not only coming from his groin but also from the male on top of him. As the brown-furred reindeer started to let gravity do the work and began to stroke himself, it was Luke's turn next, returning the favor by taking his larger maleness and having it start to penetrate his guts for the first time. Again, he had to be held down by both reindeer as well as the weight of the one still impaling himself on his golden member as a surge of pleasure went through Jack's body that was unlike anything he had ever experienced before.

"Hey, I think he might like this," Luke said with a smirk, patting the outside of Jack's furry legs to wrap around his body. As Jack bucked and wiggled around, he began to feel something other than the extreme amount of pleasure coming from his cock and tailhole as the other reindeer pleasured him; he also felt like he was growing again. "Oh yeah, definitely enjoying himself."

"Luke... I feel... really weird..." Jack said, huffing as his pectorals suddenly started to twitch while thickening, though as he tried to say more, the black and white-furred reindeer began to shove his throbbing member into the white-furred reindeer's muzzle. "Whath's... hattpnin..."

"You're just being filled with holiday cheer, Jack," Luke said as the others chuckled, the one on top of Jack sliding his legs a bit as the hips of the reindeer underneath him widened significantly. "I said we would help you; I just didn't say how. You'll still be doing this alone, but I figured you could use a boost to show how well you've adapted to my techniques."

All Jack could do at this point was let out a muffled grunt as his head started to hang further off the help desk, which only allowed the reindeer stuffing his muzzle to have easy access to his throat. As he steadied himself by grabbing onto the solid and powerful thighs of the other creature, he wanted to thank him, not just for lending him this ability to grow and complete his work faster but also for showing him the pleasures of being with strong, virile men. He would have never had an experience like this if they hadn't tackled him to the ground, and now Luke pinned him for an entirely different reason; the one on top of him let out a grunt before commenting that he was growing bigger as his furred stomach began to bulge out. But it was also becoming more challenging to think above the haze of pleasure that was settling into his body as the other three men took him, seeing Luke piston his cock into his growing tailhole. In contrast, the one on his cock began to slide up as Luke stretched his hole to the limit.

After a few minutes, both reindeer that were spit-roasting the guy between them had to continue to back up as he grew more prominent, the one in front having the entire muzzle of the giant reindeer engulfing his cock while being between his thighs as the one in the back was being squeezed by the mountainous thighs as he still kept thrusting. The one on top of Jack had to pull off after the golden cock he was riding hit the two-foot mark, though he claimed he could take more even when they could see the outline of it inside of him while he bounced up and down on it. Eventually, the other two had to stop as well, but not before they each shot a load of their jizz into him, Jack feeling his throat and inner thighs get massaged as he swallowed down on the cock inside of him until it pulled out. When the two had their orgasm, it seemed to cause the growth to happen even faster, and Jack had to roll off the desk before it collapsed under him as his spine stretched further while his limbs continued to swell like they were inflating with muscle.

"Told you that we would help," Luke called up as Jack felt his head sway from the sudden surge in growth from his antlers before his head caught up, letting out a distorted groan as every aspect of his face and skull inflated along with the rest of him. By the time the changes were finished, Jack had rested his hand against a small railing to steady himself, only to realize that he was holding onto the balcony for the second floor! "Now hurry up and get to cleaning; the rest of us have packages to deliver!"

Jack nodded, and getting used to his two-story frame was very beneficial in removing the tree he had destroyed. Once he had stripped the branches and put them in a large pile, he bundled them up and brought them to the back with the rest of the trash, having to make sure that he kept his head down to prevent his antlers from scrapping the ceiling as he did. When that was done, it just came down to the tree itself, and with a few stamps of his hoof, he could break it up into pieces small enough to go to the exact same location of the branches. After a few hours and some improvisation to sweep up the rest of the debris, he saw the first light of dawn starting to creep up over the city.

He had done it, Jack said as he breathed a heavy sigh of relief. However, it had become less about his freedom and more about how he wanted to ensure the reindeer fulfilled his arrangement with Luke. He was surprised at how satisfied he was with his well-done job. As he heard clapping beneath him, he looked down to see Luke standing in front of him, and as he bent down so they could speak face to face, the other man gave him a pat on the head and told him good job. The black-furred reindeer also removed the leather collar that had grown with his body, though at this point it was almost as big as Luke, but as Jack was about to ask if that was it, he suddenly found himself growing even more prominent in the area he had just cleaned.

"Hey, what's going on?" Jack asked as he started rising past the second floor while his muscles grew significantly. "Did I miss something?"

"There was one thing left that we have to take care of," Luke said as Jack stared at his growing body in awe and shock. "You see, the deal was that we put this place back to rights, which means you owe this place a new centerpiece. Since we can't exactly go out and get a huge new tree or decorate it in the time you have left, it's only fair that you provide the replacement."

"I... I didn't think of that..." Jack replied, biting his lip as his cock was nearly the size of one of the reindeer watching him down below. Even though he knew he shouldn't, he started to stroke it and began to moan, and as his frame continued to stretch and grow, he found himself beginning to get close to the third floor. "But... you said I could leave..."

"I said that I would allow you to walk out the front door once you had completed all of your tasks," Luke explained as Jack put a hand against the wall while starting to stroke his massive cock off in earnest, letting out substantial bellowing pants that the three could feel down there. "I also don't believe I said you would fit out the front door once we were done. Think of this as your last task of reflection, and I promise that once the holiday season is over, we'll come and get you back down to normal, plus give you an extra reward for filling in for the tree you cleaned up."

All Jack could do was let out another moan that rattled the windows as his focus became solely on his cock, which with his new hulking body, seemed to exponentially increase the pleasure he felt as he stroked himself with both hands. Meanwhile, those below him watched in eager interest as he stopped holding onto the wall and started to move back towards the position where the tree had been, not stopping his self-pleasure for a second. "He's gonna dry fire, right?" the brown-furred reindeer asked Luke, who stood there with his arms across his chest. "Is he going to dry fire, or will we have to go and get the raincoats?"

"Relax," Luke replied with a smirk. "Believe in the holiday spirit; you'll see soon enough."

As Jack passed the third story and started to drift up towards the glass dome ceiling, he suddenly began to feel his orgasm building, but the closer it got, the stranger his cock felt in his hands. Even though his muscular build continued to flow proportionally to the rest of his vast physique, he felt the throbbing shaft in his hand continue to grow smaller by the second. His panting increased as he felt the familiar surge of pleasure rising in him even as he had to switch to one hand, then to just rubbing between his fingers. At the same time, the skin around his groin was becoming unnaturally shiny, and when it got small enough that it became hard to grip, he pressed it against himself and rubbed it to his orgasm.

The white-furred reindeer's entire body practically convulsed as the first wave hit him like a tsunami, but as he braced himself against the third floor, his eyes widened when he saw nothing left between his legs. It was just a shiny expanse of solid white, and when he rubbed his hand down along it, he felt the smoothness of stone or porcelain down there. He had trouble focusing, though, as his climax continued to rock his body, spreading out from his groin along with the changes that were happening to his body as his tailhole also closed up while his tail became completely inanimate. A centerpiece... this place needed a centerpiece, and he was going to replace it, he thought to himself as he groaned again and felt his back stiffen...

...he was going to be a reindeer statue.

Down below, the two watched in awe, along with Luke, as Jack seemed to realize what was happening to him and got into position. The new statue watched as his legs started to stiffen, and he got into a pose and then froze completely. The antlers and hooves on the man also turned a similar shade of gold as his cock had been, and as the tremors of pleasure seen on his body grew less, a broad smile formed on the face of the reindeer before it froze that way. When the man finished his transformation, a vast white marble reindeer statue stood in the place of a tree, its golden accents gleaming in the light as Luke took the charity box and set it back up underneath where the front hoof stood. The other two just looked up at the three-story creature until Luke whistled for them, and they quickly followed behind.

"Did you know that he was going to become that?" the brown-furred reindeer asked Luke, who shrugged as they got into the delivery truck that sat out front before frowning as he pulled the parking ticket off the driver's side window. "That was incredible. I mean, I knew that we had the power to turn other people into reindeer if we wanted, but that was something else. Is it just because it's Christmas or because of something you can do... are you a special magic reindeer, Luke?"

"For the love of all that is holy, if I promise to stop off and get us all breakfast, will you stop asking so many questions?!" Luke shouted back, and after a moment, the brown-furred reindeer grinned and nodded. "Great, and I was just doing what I was supposed to: training reindeer that needed it and delivering packages. Speaking of such things, you'll have to work overtime to ensure we get everything ready in time for Christmas Eve."

The others let out a loud groan as the delivery truck drove off. The van would be the last car on the road for some time as sunlight continued to pour into the new centerpiece of the department store...

Though Jack saw the sun rise and set multiple times through the windows of the department store while he stood there as penance for the sin he caused against it and all those before it, he eventually found himself losing track of what day it was. For the first few days he had stood entirely alone, but eventually, people started to come back in, and when they did, he could hear their surprise at the deer statue posed instead of the Christmas tree that had been there before. He could also see them taking pictures of him that would have caused him to smile. Though he couldn't speak, it felt like he could help them make sure they also took photos of the charity box hosted through Big Package Deerlivery; those first few days alone had given him quite a bit of introspection, seeing people starting to come in and being able to witness their interactions, which also gave him a social view that he had never experienced before.

There were also the daily visits he got from Luke. He came in to pick up the money that had been donated throughout the day, replacing it with freshly minted rice paper bills, and he looked up and grinned at the statue. If Jack could have, he would have grinned back, but he continued to stare resolutely forward while waiting for what happened next to him. As he remained there, he felt an inner calm that he had never experienced before in his entire life, a serenity that came with a quiet mind that could focus on something other than himself. One night, however, he began to see fireworks going off further down into the city, and as he did, he suddenly felt his perspective shift.

For the first time in a week or so, he gasped as the hard, stony body that he had before began to soften, feeling fur regrow all over his body while he rapidly found himself shrinking. In a matter of a minute, Jack once more found himself as a normal reindeer man, complete with everything that went with it, even though he found his hooves and antlers were still the same golden color as before. As he got used to being so close to the ground, he suddenly felt something get flung at his face; his eyes crossed down at the leather hanging from his nostrils before he picked it up and saw it was a bright gold thong. Looking where it came from, he saw Luke leaning against the pedestal, holding a bottle of champagne and two glasses.

"Happy New Year," Luke said as he popped the cork when Jack walked over, tilting his head partially in confusion and mostly because he hadn't done so in weeks. "I must congratulate you; when a giant deer statue replaced the Christmas tree here, it caused quite a splash on social media. Not only did the charity get a large splash of donations from it, but we've also signed up quite a few more clients to offer BPD as one of their delivery services."

"Wow, really?" Jack replied in surprise as he slipped the gold thong to have a bit of decency, even though it was clear that the store was well past closing time.

"Yep, I'm here because this store doubled their order, and we needed to make an extra run," Luke explained as he sipped from his glass. "It was also a convenient excuse to collect you, of course, since I would only have you held here for a week or so until the holiday season was over. Now, I suppose it's time for me to turn you back and for us to part ways, though I have something I think will help you on your transition back to reality."

Jack sipped from his glass of champagne and nearly spat it back out when he saw Luke slap down a stack of bills onto the pedestal. "When the charity heard that they had gotten some help to hit their goal, they were so thankful that they wanted you to take a cut," Luke continued. "That's ten thousand dollars right there, enough for you to live pretty comfortably, at least for a little while."

"I... I don't know what to say," Jack said, his mouth open in awe as he saw the money sitting in front of him in a neat stack. With that much money, he wouldn't have to lift a finger for probably six months or three if he decided to squander it, but as he continued to look at it, he bit his lip before sliding it back. "But I can't take it, not when it came from the charity."

"But you earned it," Luke replied, tapping the bills before the muscular, white-furred reindeer. "Right?"

"For what, almost ripping them off in the first place?" Jack replied as he let out a sigh. "I got to do a lot of thinking while I was that statue, and it brought me to a lot of places in my past that I didn't like, and if I take that money for just standing around and looking pretty, then... I might... relapse..." As Jack trailed off, he noticed something that caused him to look between the smirking reindeer and the money. He then rolled his eyes before giving a big grin. "You know what, I think I will take it, but only because it's yours, and you're trying to play me."

Luke laughed as the other reindeer grabbed the wad of cash and took a big bite out of it, chewing up the rice paper of the fake money before putting the partially eaten stack back down. "You couldn't blame me for ensuring my training took," Luke stated as Jack drank the champagne to wash down the fake bills. "But seeing that it had, I would like to make you a different offer, one that I'm sure you might have guessed would come down the pipeline when we met again. I want you to join BPD, not only because I think a Christmas miracle has turned a thieving human into a hard-working reindeer but also because I believe in second chances, and I think you just earned one."

"That's... very kind of you to say," Jack said as he finished the last glass and set it back on the pedestal. "In all honesty, when you first said that I could go back to being a human, I was about to tell you that I had thought a lot about my former life and wondered if I was going to be going back to a life that there was the potential I might slip into my old ways if I no longer had the accountability you gave me. I think... I think that I'm more than happy to work for BPD if it means that I can keep on the path I see myself on right now, not to mention it would be hard to go back to my old self after having a body like this."

Jack flexed his muscles in response, and Luke chuckled once more before nodding. Then, he told the other reindeer to wait before going to the checkout counter. The white-furred reindeer smiled when he saw that it was the same backpack that had contained the collar he had given him back when he was human, except this time it included a stack of paperwork that he had to sign to join not only BPD but also many documents that amounted to an identity change. He was okay with leaving his old life in the dust and even his name, signing it for the last time before stating that he would be filing for a name change. The process took about twenty minutes, and as he signed the last of the paperwork, he could still hear fireworks going off outside.

"And there we have it," Luke said as he pressed a stamp on the last page before filing everything away and checking his watch. "Looks like you're going to be starting the new year in a new body and with a new job full of horny animal men where you can get all the gay reindeer sex you want, as well as your clients too. Given your appearance, we might put you on the marketing team, especially if we can figure out how you pulled off the giant statue trick again."

"Maybe it was like you said, and I was filled with holiday cheer," the white-furred reindeer said with a grin as they walked out to the front door, seeing that the streets were empty as he entered the passenger side while the other man went around. After grabbing the orange envelope placed on the windshield of his truck and snorting loudly in frustration, Luke got in the other side and closed the door behind him.

Just as the white-furred reindeer was about to ask what they would do for the near year, he suddenly felt something get tossed into his lap, looking down to see the familiar bright leather collar with the word TRAINEE. "Don't just think that because you turned into a hunky reindeer, you're going to know the ropes when it comes to our trade," Luke said with a smirk as he started the truck and began to drive down the street. "You're going to be spending a lot of days working under me while you learn to do what we do, and though I'm sure you can find others who are going to help you, I will be giving you the same level of training as before to whip you into shape. Do I make myself clear?"

The new trainee of BPD just nodded as the smile widened on his muzzle as he put the collar on around his neck, hoping that he could start working under the other deer as soon as possible...
