The droning buzz of an insect flew by an otherwise quiet dirt road. The hot summer sun made any form of travel on a road sluggish, especially on foot. A lone traveler knew this all too well. Dressed in modest clothes and a robe for cool nights, a human trudged forward with the heat on his back. Sweaty and tired from his long journey, he sought access to a nearby river in the northern country before arriving at the city of his destination. There was plenty of shade for rest, but would only make his journey that much longer. On either side of the dirt road was untamed field grass, pine trees, and an occasional boulder. There were no farms, buildings, or fences within sight. The path itself was rugged, littered with stones, making walking a chore in itself. However, the sporadic foot traffic was the only reason nothing grew in the dusty dirt. It was truly wilderness.

"I should be there after another bend or two." He told himself and wiped the sweat from his brow. His maps were accurate, and the promise of cool water kept him moving steadfastly. Just off the dirt path ahead he spotted a large figure leaning against a tree in the shade.

'Who could that be?' He paused for a moment, unsure if it was a bandit lying in wait. Bandits and thieves were known to prowl roads for unsuspecting travelers and mug them. Kidnappings for ransom were exceedingly rare though. He touched the gold ring on his finger, his family heirloom and most valuable possession.

'I don't need to risk my life to bathe at a river.' The human wondered whether or not to turn around or simply hide and wait for the person to leave. However, the figure took notice of him first.

'Uh oh.' His legs tensed as someone approached.

"Halt!" A husky female voice commanded. To his surprise a female wolverine walked towards him before standing several steps ahead of him on the road. She was a heartily built species of course, that came to the human as no surprise. A hilted longsword at her side appeared heavy and difficult to wield for the average soldier. She had no footwear to speak of, but the human didn't doubt the ruggedness of her soles from walking around barefoot like most Anthros. Most of her bulky fingers and both thumbs wore silver rings. Not only that, but both of her ears were pierced by a silver ring apiece. However, most obvious to the human was the fact that she wore no shirt to speak of. Only a wide shoulder strap crossed her front diagonally, covering one of her breasts by chance, but left the other completely bare. The female wolverine looked at his roving eyes suspiciously.

"Who are you and where are you going?" She asked.

"I'm traveling north to Cassedore." He answered. "But I wish to stop at the river before I proceed."

"And your name?" She asked again.

"It's Remus from Montepulciano." He introduced himself. "Who are you?" He questioned her in turn.

"My name is Nora." The wolverine firmly spoke. "I guard this section of road before town against bandits and thieves." She explained. Guards along river crossings weren't rare in rural areas, especially in virtually lawless places. A toll was typically expected, but not required since they were employed by a town.

"Can I seek passage this way to the river, Nora?" He requested.

"Yes. I can lead you there." She promptly nodded.

"Thank you." He bowed respectfully. Once she turned around, Remus noticed a round shield on her otherwise bare back. 'I guess she really is an employed guard.' He thought to himself. The wolverine slowed her pace so that the human could walk alongside her. Glancing over, he could see that she was a little taller than him, but the difference in height was subtle. Nora's strength easily dwarfed him. He noticed a silver earring glinting with sunlight; but in front of her, he couldn't help but notice her naked breast subtly jiggling and shaking from her steps.

"They say northern people don't wear a lot despite the weather." He remarked and looked away at a young pine sapling along the side of the dirt road. "But I didn't expect those rumors to be true."

"Hmm." The wolverine half grinned and glanced at the human. "When you're built to endure a rough winter in the wilderness, you don't need that false sense of civility covering you like a thin veil." She smartly remarked. Remus gave a slow nod in response.

"Then is the rumor about northern people being brazen and brash true as well?" He knew that was largely unfounded but worth mentioning.

"Depends on who you ask, I suppose." Nora didn't seem to mind. "You'll find miners, smiths, farmers, and the rest who have their opinions whether or not they're bears, polecats, badgers, rats, lynxes, or anyone else."

"I take it that you are from this area?"

"I was born in a village not far from here to the Illathbra clan." She told him and pointed towards a northeastern cliff face. "But living in a mountainous village ruled by clan politics isn't the easiest life. It's easy to fall into debt, and the last thing I want to find myself in is indentured servitude."

"Indentured servitude is unfortunately a punishment that is all too commonplace." The human agreed.

"You're well spoken." Nora said. "Are you a scholar or diplomat?" She guessed.

"I am neither, I suppose." He told her. "I work with town and city councils on occasion, but I normally work with a few friends whose businesses are important to me." The wolverine said no more as they walked.

After the wide turn, the land to his right opened up as the bend of a river met the sandy and rocky stretch of embankment beside the pathway. The river itself appeared shallow in most places with rocks. However, there was a section wide enough and just deep enough to submerge oneself. It was a welcome sight for Remus.

"Perfect." He hummed a content grin. "Thank you for letting me pass."

"You're welcome." She kindly grinned. He dropped his pack down by the water's edge with a sigh of relief and removed his robe, followed by his shirt. Remus was eager to jump in the cool water, but the wolverine's continued presence irked him. After a little hesitation it was evident that she was not going anywhere. With some reluctance he kept his back to her and stripped down naked before wading into the river.

"Ahhh..." Remus sat down and took a few minutes to soak. The cool water felt heavenly on his tired body. It made the difficult day worth it in its entirety.

'Hmm?' He heard the ruffling of clothing, and looked over his shoulder. To the traveller's surprise, the hardy female remained along the river's edge and began disrobing. Remus quickly thought of something to say.

"I appreciate the hospitality as well as your protection ma'am," he politely spoke, "but you don't need to reveal yourself in front of me."

"Reveal? Pff! You don't need to feel scared about seeing me naked." She rebuffed him. "You're not the only one hot and tired from this heat." She kicked off her trousers and loosened her large belt and shoulder strap. Remus wasn't exactly thrilled to have the wolverine bathe with him despite the wide swathe of river available to them. However, he didn't want to come across as rude after she permitted him to pass. It would take at least another full day before he arrived in the town of Cassedore, and he didn't want to pass by the rugged wolverine in a rude manner. She guarded against bandits, but getting on an armed woman's bad side wouldn't help him out either.

Her garments, belts, and small rugged bag fell to the ground with a crumpled thud. With the last of her clothing kicked or tossed aside, he couldn't help but notice her fully nude figure as she calmly waded into the knee deep section of water. Just as he had expected, Nora was a mature woman with a strong built body. The wolverine's entire front was covered in thick dark brown fur. Her arms were covered in black fur, and they appeared as soft as they were strong. The wolverine's pudgy dark brown belly was the same, but her black legs were strong and thick from living a rugged life. She also had a scar on her lower belly that matched the one on her shoulder. If anything, she wasn't a push over.

Her chest was covered in dark brown fur as well. Both breasts were modest for her husky size, but retained a very feminine appearance with a subtle sag of heaviness in age. Both of her dark nipples were matched with rings of flesh partially obscured by her unruly dark fur. Nestled between her legs was an equally unruly patch of dark fur that hid her womanhood like underbrush.

Once she turned around he could see her golden furred backside that blended beautifully with her brown fur, and the dark stripe that descended down her spine.

'She's a rugged woman.' He spied at the bite mark on her arm and another just below her right knee. However, he was unsure if it was from a wild animal, or a bizarre accident. 'I'm not surprised that she is a border guard... She is certainly built and capable of more physical work-.' Remus's thought was cut short as he noticed she was looking over her shoulder at him. Nora quickly frowned and looked away. The human blinked and turned away.

'She is playing games with me.' He closed his eyes and breathed a calm sigh before tending to himself once again. He cupped his hands and poured water over his head before thoroughly washing his face. Only the chattering of a few distant crowd disturbed the trickling and quiet splashing of water between them.

'You don't find peace like this in a crowded city.' He didn't miss the throng of people and constant noises or urban life. There was no rush of business to tend to, no diplomacy, correspondence, and there was nothing that had to be done immediately. The air was fresh and clean, and the surrounding nature regardless of the landscape produced its own intrinsic beauty.

'Why am I complaining about city life? I mostly live in the countryside anyway.' He mused to himself and washed his arms. The sound of water moving towards him stirred his attention. Tiny waves rippled past him like an incoming high tide.

"Hey."

"What? Uh..." He turned around only to blink as he found his face mere inches from her belly and thighs. Remus had quite a view has he looked past her breasts to see her face looking down at him plainly.

"Did you need help washing your back?" She offered kindly.

"My back?" He almost didn't understand. The wolverine snickered.

"Yes, or are you afraid of a lady touching you?" She lightly teased.

"No." He was taken aback by her comment.

"Then sit tight." She stepped around and plopped down behind him causing the water to splash against his back. The human begrudgingly accepted the kind gesture. However, he felt her furry legs rest against his waist underwater. He felt her cup and pour water over his back a few times next.

'Just don't mention or think about her body.' Remus thought about saying something, but hopefully staying in the cold water would stave off any arousal. Being caught in a vulnerable position made him nervous until she touched his back. Her hands were strong yet supple, even as her thick white claws accidentally grazed his skin. The leathery padded palms and fingertips felt heavenly against his skin. With a sigh he slouched back and let her bathe his backside.

"I don't get many visitors along this path." She told him.

"Why is that? Do you scare all of the bandits away?" His question was partially rhetorical, but sincere.

"Well, this is a side road." Nora said as her hands caressed his back. "And considering the hills and mountains nearby, once in a while a traveler runs into a bandit that looks like me. You wouldn't want to run into me if I was going to mug you, would I?" She questioned as her hands rubbed his shoulders.

"No." That was what he wanted to avoid from the start.

"That's good. No one else does, so they usually travel on the main road even though it takes longer."

"You're right. That makes sense." He nodded. Anyone would want to mitigate their risk by taking simple measures. Her hands rested around his waist when she finished, just below the surface of the water.

"I think I'm done." Her voice lingered as if expecting him to say something.

"Well... Thank you." The human wasn't sure what to say. After all, he was sitting naked in the river with a sturdy female wolverine road guard.

"Would you mind getting my back?" She softly requested.

"Um..." He hesitated as his cheeks flushed a subtle red. Remus felt her hands hold onto his hips. Glancing down, he could see her white claws below the water's surface like fangs.

"If it's not too much to ask." Nora added.

"Okay. It's not." Remus found himself saying a little too fast for his own liking.

"Thank you so much." He felt her lean forward and place both hands on his shoulders. The human gritted his teeth and scolded himself for a moment.

'Alright. Just be kind since she was kind to you.' Remus told himself. Water splashed behind him as he wiped his face with cool water to extinguish the redness on his cheeks. By the time he turned around, the wolverine was already standing up. Glancing up from his seat, the human had to look past the swell of her dark furred pudgy belly and both breasts to see her brusquely beautiful face. However, the grin on her face was anything but innocent.

"Um..." Despite being in the cool river, he suddenly felt uncomfortably hot.

"Well?" She placed her hand on her hips and looked down at Remus expectantly wearing an amused smile. He rose onto his legs with a hint of unsteadiness, hoping that she wouldn't look him over as he had just done to her. The dripping of water between them made the silent awkwardness that much more obvious.

Nora didn't say anything more that her grin couldn't. She took her time turning around, giving him ample time to look over her naked front once again. Once her back was fully turned, Remus glanced around the riverside. It was broad daylight, birds occasionally chirping with buzzing insects, and they were both standing in the water completely naked. Wasn't someone walking along going to find them like this?

"Are you going to get my back or not?" A feminine voice caught his attention.

"Uh. Yes." He stared at her light golden furred back once again. Reaching up, Remus placed his hands gently against her damp fur and began rubbing below her shoulders. The wolverine's fur was coarse but there was an undoubted softness to her pretty pelt.

"Don't be shy." She chuckled at his timid touch. "My fur is a thick double coat. You'll need to use some muscle."

"S-sorry." He gulped before taking a silent deep breath. Applying more pressure, he rubbed on her back with enough force to her liking. Nora sighed and placed her hands on hips fully relaxed.

'I have never in my life...' Remus could not believe how his river visit had turned out. The human could count on his hand the number of times he had been 'romantic' with a woman before, but nothing had unfolded quite like this before! He gradually descended her back, rubbing her to satisfaction while enjoying the contours of her body. The muscles underneath were well defined and strong. Rugged in her appearance or not, the wolverine still felt womanly to the human in a wilder way.

Remus was constantly brushing against her naked rear with water cupped in his hands when her fur needed it. There wasn't a single complaint from her, only hums and little grunts of approval. Even her short tail wiggled a few times. Her hands moved when he reached her lower back, almost inviting him to grab onto her love handles. Remus didn't give in to the open invitation, but generously cleaned her backside with only a few innocent passes on her sides and rear.

"There..." He sighed and pulled his hands away from her. "I think I'm done." Remus wiped the excess fur from his hands.

"That felt great." Nora turned back around, gently sloshing the water below them. The grin on her muzzle was evident enough. Remus kept his gaze level despite her body being on full display for him.

"I'm happy that you liked it." He managed to say calmly.

"Maybe I should ask you to rub my front while you're at it..." She coyly added. Remus felt his eyes widen as his heart rise into his throat, although he could've sworn something else rise too. He saw her hand move from the corner of his eye. The human gasped as a smooth finger touched his manhood. He didn't need to glance down to know that he was sporting an erection for her to see. Although, Remus could feel it jutting out to her, like an arrow for where his lustful desires rested. His face turned a bright red as all of his bashfulness caught up to him.

"Now listen, I-I don't uh mean to-" He started to take a step back only for the wolverine to make a faster move.

"I never liked seeing a man so nervous to do what he really desires." She gave a wicked grin and pushed Remus back. The human fell backwards, but a swift hand grabbed him just as his rear hit the water. The splash was muffled as he was sprawled out in the shallowest part of the river. A little stunned from her move, he managed to sit up with Nora looming over him. The wolverine crouched down with impressive speed and placed her hands on his spread knees. She crept forward, almost laying on her front in the water as her muzzle drew closer. Her hot breath descended on his groin like a steaming mist. An unmarried man, and normally chaste, Remus was wholly unprepared for the pleasure he was about to receive.

He held his breath as the wolverine woman's mouth parted and enveloped his manhood in a sensual oral embrace. Her tongue was warm, wide, smooth, and impossible to avoid. Swirling, licking, and caressing him in her hot mouth. In moments the wolverine brought him to full arousal once again, causing him to shudder wantonly. Remus groaned and grabbed two thick tufts of fur on her shoulders while she suckled his length. Nora responded by pulling his hands underwater and holding them there while continuing to pleasure him with her mouth.

Nora didn't push him over the edge right away, but the moaning human above her wouldn't last very long. She gently bobbed her head, already tasting his essence on her tongue. Remus breathed heavily trying to control himself, but the inevitable was already at hand. He felt his balls draw up before an impending release. Remus cried out past the point of no return and came with unexpected force. Nora pleasured the human through the entire blissful act until he was laid back on his arms.

He blinked and stared up at the cirrus clouds in the bright blue sky above. The entire world felt still around him. He breathed deeply, processing all of the delightful pleasure coursing through his body. It had happened so fast that it almost felt unreal.

The water quietly splashed as Nora rose to her feet. Water droplets fell on him like rain when she loomed over him. Glancing up, she seemed to roll her eyes at him.

"Need a hand?" She offered. He gave a shaky nod without saying anything and grasped her padded palm. The wolverine easily pulled him to his feet where he took his last shaky steps out of the river. They left faint footprints in sandy soil beside the road. The sun was still hot, but the coolness of the water helped stave away the constant heat that had plagued him on his journey by foot.

Looking over, Nora was standing along the sandy shore beside him. The wolverine was rubbing excess water out of her fur with some success. Her soaked fur clung to her body, outlining her thick build much more clearly for him to see. With everything that had happened, Remus didn't feel very bashful about her nudity anymore.

"You look nice." He mentioned. Her ears perked up.

"I don't hear compliments like that from humans." Nora seemed a little surprised but smoothed her facial fur. Remus knelt down by his bag and retrieved something.

"Here." He approached her and presented a little bit of money.

"You don't need to throw coins at me like I'm a prostitute." She waved a hand. "I've made you nervous enough for the rest of the day." The reluctance of payment immediately tipped him off as strange, but the afterglow he was basking in kept him at ease.

"At least accept a little something, maybe to eat a meal when you are in town." Whether it was out of pity or true gratitude didn't matter as he handed over a pair of copper and iron coins to her. At the very least it was something.

"You're too kind and modest." Her smile fell a little, almost guiltily, as she accepted the money.

"I appreciate your kindness, and uh... hospitality." He thanked her.

"You're welcome." Nora warmly grinned once again. "Maybe we'll meet up if I need to go to Cassedore soon." She winked and walked by him to her belongings. Remus felt a little giddy at the possible "offer." Despite how alive his senses were, he felt incredibly tired. Remus crept towards the closest tree that wasn't shaded and sat down. The sun felt warm and tender against his wet naked skin. As his eyes drew to a close, he saw Nora standing in the sun near the river and ruffling her wet fur, hoping to dry it quickly.

'Wow.' He thought to himself as his eyes drew to a close.

***

After dozing off in the sun to dry off, Remus dressed and gathered his belongings before resuming his journey once again. Nora the wolverine guard was nowhere to be seen.

'I guess she is back to her position down the road.' He assumed and began walking up the rugged rocky dirt road. Now refreshed, Remus had a clear spring in his step that the hot sun couldn't diminish for the remainder of the day.

'Once I get to Cassedore I will meet up with Umberto and give him the paper of receipts for all of the units of cloth. I'll go over my vineyard report with him, and then I'm sure he will tell me about his uncle and father...' All of his thoughts were pleasant as he glanced at the pine trees he passed by, but they ultimately returned to the female wolverine.

'Nora was kind and friendly, but something still doesn't feel right.' He couldn't shake the feeling of treachery despite all that she had done for him. "She was guarding a road, but that's normal. She was armed with a sword and shield. That isn't strange." Remus went down a list of suspicions and observations. "She was very... friendly and forward." His cheeks warmed a little from saying that. "But why me?"

Wolverines weren't known for their slim and shapely beauty since they were built heartily. But even that didn't explain why she came onto him so readily. Many other thoughts came and left his conscience, however, nothing seemed to add up.

'She doesn't know that I'm wealthy. I never told her about my lifestyle.' He thought. "Nora wore a lot jewelry." Remus remembered the silver piercings on her ears and rings on her fingers. "So she is not exactly poor." He touched his ring finger out of habit only to stop in mid step.

"What the...?" He felt his family heirloom ring only to touch naked skin. Holding his hand up, the human's eyes widened at the obvious absence. The gold ring was missing, and his mind flashed to when she brought his hands underwater. However, he knew the thief was long gone already. Anger swelled within his body as his muscles tightened with sourness.

"Nora!!!" His voice echoed among the pines, river, and northern swamp.
