Chapter XVIII

Ruination and Realization

* * * * *

Friday and Jake looked at each other with anger and fear as they heard a car coming up the drive to the house. They ran for the house thinking that their mistress had lapsed quickly back into accepting Mark. What greeted them instead was a shock, it was Jimmy's truck. Both collies yapped exited and ran to the truck as it came to a stop. They eagerly waited for Jimmy to step out grinning at them.

He petted them and ruffed their ears. "Hey there, been a while" he said and looked up to see Tiffany who waved meekly at him with a weak "hi"

Jimmy nodded and smiled at her with a cheerful hello and he reached into the back of his truck for a small tool box.

Friday was happy to see Jimmy again, but her joy was dampened by what she learned of humans, what she knew of them through the thoughts and actions of Jake. She looked up at him when he mentioned her gravid state and pet her swollen middle. She felt special and liked the attention, and Jake put his arm about her and licked her cheekruff petting her belly. She wagged her tail but still the unfairness of humanity played in her mind. She was less concerned with Jimmy staying than Mark coming back and if Jake was upset with her mating with others, then having a mate would keep Mark away.

Jake was taking this reunion quite well, even his scent was happier.

Friday looked at her mate and cuddled to his back, her bulging belly against his back making her lean over to hug him around his chest, her head at his shoulder blades.

He turned in her arms and looked at her. The expression on his face made her believe everything was going to be okay from here on out.

* * * * *

Tiffany smiled at Jimmy who smiled back and continued replacing the window.

Tiffany cleared her throat, "I'm sorry about what happened." She said sheepishly

Jimmy didn't stop for a second, "that's alright, don't worry about it." He said the last as the new window fit into place and he began to screw the frame in.

"Well," Tiffany said stalling but decided to try, "I was hoping that maybe you and I could go out again,.... Sometime?"

Jimmy stopped and looked to her "well tempting but I'm seeing someone." He lied politely.

Tiffany made an oh and nodded "I see, sorry, and I wish you best of luck with her."

This time Jimmy didn't stop working and muttered a simple thanks and put in the next screw.

Tiffany watched him work. He was a simple kind man. She could not figure out why Mark was such a fascination to her even now. The man was cute but useless and still she pined for him. She smiled to Jimmy and began taking note of things that had to be repaired. Jimmy was kind enough to use some of the money she had given him before, rather than having her forfeit for basically firing him with no provocation than her boyfriend didn't like him. She felt so alone now, felt like she wanted a man, a relationship and children. The breeding bitch in the house made her green with envy for her pregnancy and mate.

Jimmy worked in the house repairing some of the domestic damage and noting things he would have to bring for later.

Jake was overcome with glee when he was told he did an excellent job on the fence by Jimmy.

Friday was glad the week was going smoothly. Her mate was happy helping build and repair, Tiffany was trying her hardest to be subtle in her apology and want of the man but she knew he was not her first choice of mate. But she did not understand why she simply did not turn tail and allow him to mount her like she did Mark. But humans were far from her understanding so she just watched them bemused.

She was watching sheep when her breasts began to ache, not the normal ache as they became swollen but like her nipples itched and no amount of scratching or rubbing would sate it so she took to biting her skin in frustration and then pulling the fur in frustration. To her surprise she came away with a clump of white fur and the itching was a bit sated. She pulled a few more mouthfuls of short fur but with her cut it was hard for her to reach her nipples to any effect but what she did seemed to take away the urgent urge but she spent most of the day picking around her nipples.

She came into the house dirty and tired. She really wanted Jake to help her now but she didn't want to seem weak. But she was tired and the pup was throwing fits in her belly and upsetting her stomach. She finally flopped on their bed and sighed. Her nipples itched again and she began to pull at her short fur in vain.

She finally flopped her paws on the bed in defeat. She was resolved to wallow in her misery, then the itching got the better of her and she tried again with claws and teeth to pull at the fur on her breasts. Jake walked in tilting his head to Friday who looked at him with pleading eyes. She stopped to sign ‘help me.'

Jake looked lost and at her saliva matted fur around her nipples and the red places her fur was missing around the nipple. "I'll get Tiffany." He said and turned to get his mistress but was pulled back by the base of his tail. He turned around and saw Friday lifting up one of her fuller breasts to him pleading. He lowered his muzzle and licked her breasts and at her prompting bit the fur around her nipple, some of it coming out easily in his mouth. It was annoying spitting out the fur but it was not enough. He was nibbling the fur when Fridays paws came around his muzzle clamping his teeth on the fur and pulling back with a large tuft of fur in his teeth. He looked at Friday who he expected to be in pain but she was looking relived and pulled his muzzle close for another bite but he still had the fur in his teeth. He broke her hold on him and spat out the furball in his teeth.

Friday looked desperately at him and a bit angry but he led her to the bed and laid her down. She cooperated in hopes he would continue and was not disappointed when he straddled her legs and held her arms to the bed and lowered his muzzle and began pulling the itchy fur away from her nipples. She panted in pleasure and relief and wished he would just work faster but knew he was doing what he could. He looked up after about an inch of fur was missing around her stiff pink nipples but she motioned for more, more fur had to be removed, the itch was still there. Jake continued another inch the fur matted in balls and floated in the air as he stripped another inch and then another before she jumped in pain and shook her head. Jake saw how red her bare flesh was and licked soothingly over the inflamed bald flesh.

Friday wished she could whimper or say yes and complement him but she had no voice. Her arms fought to press her mates muzzle to her tit and have him take her nipple, massage her sore breast but he licked over her tit and nipple, pulling the stray hairs and soothing her flesh with licks. Finally she was lulled into a hypnotic helpless sleep as her mate gave her relief from this thing that tormented her all day.

Friday woke when Jake shook her softly and smiled "time for dinner."

She smiled and felt a small internal ache in her breasts now but the infernal itching was gone. She rubbed each breast from both sides trying to relive the ache but it was just a constant thing now, just like the feel of her breasts when she ran, the heaviness of them now. She felt like a ewe in milk but she made none and if she was like the ewes would not make milk until the day before or of her whelping. She tested her nipple milking herself like a ewe but to nothing but a bit of relived ache so she continued until the ache was almost unnoticeable and went to dinner.

Tiffany was the first to notice the new bald spots on the bitch and was about to ask but she had seen bitches and even ewes pull the fur away from their nipples before birthing, but that meant she was close. The collie seemed to have trouble adjusting to her new breast size. They got in her way and she walked more and more as a biped.

Tiffany smiled and served them dinner and found an extra plate on the table that she filled and served. The collies ate a bit nervously when they herd the bathroom door open and Jimmy walk out.

"Wow, smells good" he said sitting down next to Jake and Tiffany.

He looked over to Friday, "well now, you really are about ready to pop."

Friday nodded and rubbed her belly where her pup kicked her inner walls, but this time it was not her organs because she really was hungry. She had a particular craving and ate all the fat off her meat and jakes and accepted the trimmings and the humans offer after seeing her want. Friday looked about sniffing and they all watched to see what it was she wanted. She had finished her meal but still she was missing something. She ate the bones she ate the fat the meat the potatoes the beans, licked the floor around the refrigerator and the inner seal until she came to a jar of strawberry jelly. The jelly never stood a chance as well as anyone who would have stopped her before she stuffed her muzzle in the jar and licked it clean from the inside. This and a three pack of yogurt and a dill pickle seemed to sate her craving. The collie genome bitch smiled and nuzzled up to Jake. For some reason she wanted something else now one hunger was sated, she wanted another and the scent of Jakes maleness was just about maddening, as if she was in the deepest heat she had ever known. She looked at the humans and pulled Jake from his seat, him the only one who knew what was in the bitches mind, because of the smell of her want.

Almost as soon as the door to their bedroom closed Friday grabbed Jakes hips and pressed him to the wall as she used his hips to help herself down to a squat. She sniffed the end of his sheath once before her long firm tongue plunged into his unaroused sheath. She tasted his protective mucus and laced her tongue over the entirety of the inside of his sheath. She felt the arousal fill his sheath, making it hard for her tongue to move. She pulled his sheath back and lapped his slickness from his member and then teasing the back of his knot where the thin shaft made it easy to lap inside the scrunched up sheath. Her fingers behind his knot imitated her tight muscular vestibule and made him grow in her paws. she could smell as well as feel his impending orgasm and placed her muzzle to the point of his canine shaft blanketing his shaft wrapping his tool in her tongue and coaxing his seed so familiar to her mixed with her own fluid now in its pure form into her muzzle over her tongue that craved the salty almond taste of his puppy seed. She kept his member in her muzzle for the twenty minuets he pulsed seed into her muzzle before his knot deflated and slipped from her fingers back into his sheath. She licked his soft sheath and balls thanking him for letting her have his seed and only one more time did she impose on him the need to taste him so fully that night to sate her craving.

* * * * *

Jake did not feel tired at all even with the late night needs of his mate. He and Jimmy were in the far back fields stringing fence along the more distant track of land where the trees had started to take over. It would be a good for a feral patch to let them roam in even here Jake looked over his shoulder before daring to speak his thoughts "You know she talks about you, and she does miss more than the jobs you help with." Jake said softly as if in all the pasture the sheep may tell on him.

"Look, Jake, I know you and Friday like me and would like me to be around more, but Tiffany doesn't want me like that."

"What do you mean? I know she tried to ask you out again, and I don't smell another woman on you, so I know you are not seeing any others." Jake argued, "so why not my mistress?"

Jimmy sighed and leaned on the fence post he just replaced looking at Jake. "look Jake, I'm not a fast mover, I like to take my time to do things right," he watched Jake nod and went on, "well that lets me know if the woman is right for me, gives some time to see who she really is and if she wants me, and your mistress chose someone else." Jake looked at him with his ears flipped back but still listened, "she likes me fine as a handy man and a friend, but she prefers a faster type. I lost to the convenient penis factor and that ends that" He smiled to Jake who tilted his head.

"I think she realized her mistake, maybe she knows you're better for her now?" Jake reasoned but was not so sure because of the snickering Jimmy was doing.

"look, you are a dog and I hate to say it but human mate selection is a bit different, and courting is different, so I admire a dog that wants to give relationship advice but you have to understand two things, she decided that I'm not a suitable man for her, and rebound guy."

Jake squinted and sat back thinking then looked to Jimmy, "who is rebound guy?"

Jimmy smiled, "well rebound guy is the poor sucker a woman picks up after a breakup to make her feel better, then she fucks him and dumps him to boost her own ego. Usually it is a guy who makes her feel safe and wanted and when she feels she is desirable again and goes out looking again before dumping him"

Jake balked at such a concept, "hold on, you're telling me that a human woman who breaks up in a relationship will choose a male only to use him?"

Jimmy nodded, "yup, the upside to being rebound guy is the sex, the downside is she will dump you at her leisure, but the upside is that it will usually be to some jerk."

"But she had a jerk, a bad jerk, an asshole of a jerk and she will go back to that?" Jake fretted.

"Yup, and the fact she only sees me as a fallback is why I don't want to even try." Jimmy said as he pulled another insulator from the bucket and tacked it to the post.

It was hard for Jake to understand such strange behavior, but the end result was that Jimmy and Tiffany were not going to get together.

Jake continued to help Jimmy replace poles and tack on insulators all the while pondering what Jimmy had told him.

After Jimmy called it a day and left in his truck, Jake had to confirm these stories from the best source he knew, and even Mr. Athens confirmed the existence and purpose of rebound guy. Friday was not sympathetic at all either, it just proved Friday was right, humans will use until they no longer want, then discard as they see fit. But the scary part he realized, was they were so used to it, they made up roles in their society for them.

Friday rubbed him between the ears as he sat on their bed staring out the window. It was new and kept the heat in better and for some reason he thought about how to use a window ‘are you okay?' she signed when he looked to her.

"I just don't understand,"

Friday sighed, ‘are you still on that? look it is the way things are, not the ideal, you know that from the past and now you know why I leave the humans to be humans, do my job and be grateful I'm not a stray, I am still useful."

Jake lowered his head. The only things that made any sense anymore were what Friday said. But he still fought against all he had been taught and believed was so wrong. Still he held on to the belief that there was a right and wrong and the ultimate bliss of finding a mate. He jerked his head suddenly, he WAS right, Friday herself proved it. He had what was the ultimate bliss and he laughed, HE had a loving mate that was not afraid and did not invoke fear in him anymore. Without her this situation would be so much worse on him and he had no way to cope. But she was there, she was jagged and jaded and she needed him as much as he her, he smoothed her barbs and picked away her shield and found she really truly loved him, he understood Mrs. Athens and everything seemed to click into place. He fought for what he believed, he relented when he found fault and adapted he improved and through Fridays nonstop picking at him, she found the true self he had hidden away. He looked up to Friday who looked worried, and he loved her for all her worry, that worry was for him, her body was given to him her love was given to him and this pup was for him. He wrapped his arms about the black and white bitch and held her as tight as he dared with her belly swollen. It must have been an intrusion because he could feel the pup kicking in his belly as it pressed against his mate.

Friday was not expecting this reaction, she expected some denial a rebuttal an argument but she was not going to deny his warmth. He had never held her like this. It was exiting but calming as if her fears and worries were somehow smaller, insignificant. She felt as if everything was now right. The two collie looked eachother in the eye, the brown of the earth and the blue of the sky met in their stare and the two worlds combined in their kiss.

* * * * *

The days passed slowly for Friday. Her mate was happier and she could not explain why even after a few arguments he smiled and still ruffed her fur or kissed her and it just blew her mind. She thought he was sick or hit but he barely walked with a limp, anyone who did not know him before the attack would never know he was hurt. She just shrugged it off as something human he would do.

She was getting used to the routine of the farm again. Without mark things ran smoothly, there was no undue stress. The plants were burned and the hyponics stored away. They were still useful but not to Tiffany, not now. The collie sniffed about for every thing of marks she could find and tossed it in the trash burn pit. She was happy to be rid of the one who cause her so much aggravation.

That evening Friday sat on the couch with her toy collie, her breasts sore and aching but they at least did not itch. She was massaging her tit when Tiffany came around the corner with a picture frame. It was large and the image side faced away from her. She looked at Tiffany Jimmy and Jake as they smiled at her. it made her nervous so she folded her arms over her toy protectively.

Tiffany laughed, "no Friday, we're not gonna hurt you, I wanted to show you something." She said and turned the large frame around and in a comic paneled collage were pictures of Friday in her youth, and more recent pictures of her kissing Jake and one photo she never saw the woman take, one of her and Jake holding eachothers paws as a red sunset haloed them and the barn. Friday held her toy tight, but this time in a hug as she saw pictures of her and a Berry together. She wished now she had words but now she just hugged her mates mistress and then Jake. She loved seeing herself and now with other pictures of Tiffany and Jake and other people unknown to her, she had her image in the house, and an image of her and Jake together.

She watched Jimmy hang it in the living room and giggled looking at it. She barely registered her aching breasts until later that night. She was massaging her tit when wetness coated her fingers. It shocked her to smell her own milk. Her heart raced but she felt no contractions, only her heart. She showed Jake her fingers and milked herself a bit more to prove her milk had come. She trembled as her mate held her soothing her ears and nuzzling her. She closed her eyes secure in his calm confidence. If he was not scared, why should she be? Everything was alright, she had no contractions and slept though the night with nothing to hint at her whelping the pup.

She woke and looked at her mate whos' image hovered over her smiling. "Get up sleepyhead, you are late."

Friday looked up and at the window to the sun, she was late. She sat up and felt her full breasts shift and move. She felt a little sick but she had a job to do. She did not feel like eating and just went to the sheep, taking them to pasture five to eat the wild growth that had taken over.

But she found herself a bit restless, she was distracted from her duties. She felt odd and wanted to be alone, she felt agoraphobic and needed someplace safe. She then felt the first twinges of a contraction, nothing compared to a true contraction but she knew what was happening. She was filled with both dread and joy. She looked about the farm but knew where she had to go.

* * * * *

Jake wandered the fields, making sure the sheep were alright. He had seen no sign of Friday and that made him paranoid, even pregnant she was a considerable force of chaos and could do anything at any time.

Jake kept watch and found no new signs of his mate after about three hours. Concerned he went to the house to see if she had returned there.

Tiffany was surprised to see Jake and even more surprised to hear about Friday missing. She thought about how vindictive Mark was. She didn't confide to Jake her thoughts but got up and started to get dressed to help him look for the pregnant collie. She was on her way out the door when the phone rang,...

Fear and pain was what Friday felt as she squatted over her nest, her hips hurt her belly hurt her claws dug into the hay and eventually scratched down to the boards underneath. She had soaked the hay with her water and she knew from watching ewes the pup would be here soon. But not soon enough for her as fear gripped her, what if things went wrong? What if her pup became stuck? There was lambing fluid but did she need pupping fluid? Her train of thought was broken by another contraction and she pushed, she pushed and relaxed, the pup still unborn. She regretted snapping at the other two collies now and sending them away. Her instincts helped but there was nothing to help her lack of experience as she bled on the hay. She panted and felt more contractions and pushed then went back to panting and looking to see if there was progress. She felt another contraction and this time a bit more pain as the pup forced it's way out of her body through a canal that was previously too small for it. She hacked harshly in a yelp as her vulva were parted by a nose and mouth and another contraction and her pushing brought a sore relief as finally the membrane sack with her pup was delivered in the straw nest she made so long ago. She looked at the pup she just whelped and licked the membrane from around his muzzle thinking how much like his father he looked, she licked his muzzle glad to see him in this world and he began to mewl and whimper as she bit away the umbilical cord. Friday felt things she had never known before and even after the afterbirth was licked from the new hay she had put in the nest she was thinking about what a wonderful life her pup would have, and how she would love to show him to his father when she felt more ready. For now she was tired and sore. She looked at the pup so much like his father suckling at her bare nipple.

..,Tiffany picked up the phone impatiently "hello?" She said hastily

"Well your dog decided that it would be a good idea to come over here and take over my hay loft again and have a pup." Her father said in his usually annoyed voice when things did not go his way

Tiffany squealed with delight in her fathers' ear through the phone "we'll be right over!" She yelled into the receiver and hung up.

Friday held the pup to her breast as it suckled from her. She licked his still wet fur. She was still sore and moving was uncomfortable but she shifted her position to look at who was coming in the barn. her tail wagged but she found that muscles from her tail were attached to her hips which were still very sore so she tucked her tail again and just twitched the tip as her mate looked up at her. Tiffany and her father were barely ahead of Jake. She didn't want the humans to have her pup, she was still nervous about the potential of having him sold from her teat. She whimpered and flashed her teeth as Tiffany came up the stairs but softened when she saw Jake.

Tiffany held back as Jake stepped forward timidly, unsure as his now thin mate held a small colorful murring form in her arms and he knew it was a part of him. He sat in front of his black and white mate and looked at their son. He reached up and pet his sons small flat ears. He still smelled of embryonic fluid and blood. But the tiny form that pawed kneading at her tit was the focus of the entire farm. Mrs. Athens and bonnie had climbed the stairs to the loft while the collies admired their creation.

Mrs. Athens looked over to her husband. "I told you she was good for the farm, and Jake." Mr. Athens just nodded in his self assured way as bonnie tried to sneak closer to the new parents to see the pup. The bitch had not yet had her first heat but she was still interested in pups as female instinct dictates.

This time Bonnie was not scared off by gnashing teeth but instead invited to see the newborn with a smile from Friday. Bonnie happily sat almost as close as Jake did and reached a timid paw to touch the slick soft damp fur of the pup. She giggled "he's so soft."

Friday nodded and shifted the pup closer to her breast and sighed happily. She lifted her muzzle to accept Jakes kiss.

Tiffany bit her lip. She was happy for her Jake but the streak of jealously for Friday and her pup felt like a worm in her body wiggling from head to toe. Why could she not be a mother, why was she doomed to this life without a mate. She sighed and faked her smile, "you have a beautiful pup" she commented honestly and envious. She then made the excuse of it being crowded in the loft and headed to the ladder calling Bonnie. "Give them their privacy, we saw the pup but let's leave them be."

Mrs. Athens let her husband pass and got his attention as she spoke. "I'll be with you in a bit."

Mr. Athens smirked at his wife, "now you remember how old we are and how old our kids are before you go thinking about babies again."

Mrs. Athens chuckled at him, "no dear I just want to look at the pup before I go."

Mr. Athens nodded and shocked Mrs. Athens to whipping her head about, mostly from the sincerity in his voice. "I love you."

Mrs. Athens bit her lips between her teeth then smiled, but it was missed by her husband who had already descended the ladder.

The woman walked over slowly to the new parents and smiled to Friday who held her pup a bit more to her chest with an unsure look. "Hey there honey." She said softly and pet Fridays head. "I just want to make sure you and your pup are alright before I go." She said and looked at the newborn. She gently but with a firm practiced hold of someone used to handling small ones took the pup from Friday. Friday looked scared and unsure when the pup mewed loudly having been interrupted from its' meal but the way Mrs. Athens handled him she knew he was safe and watched the old mother as she held the pup to her own chest and checked the umbilical cord and looked the pup over carefully before looking to Jake. "Come here daddy, you are going to have to learn to hold these if you and your young mate are going to make this a habit."

Jake smiled not only for the thought of more breedings but because the old woman showed him how to hold his new son. The collie pup was a bit more firm than a human child with no need to hold the head so much but the form made it very practical to hold him. Friday looked less nervous about her pup but was curious about herself and what Mrs. Athens was doing as she pulled her tail away from her sore folds and touched the stretched lips. Friday tried to push the womans' hands away but in an expert fashion her paws were shoved away. "I just need to make sure you're clotting and everything looks right."

Friday timidly relaxed her tail letting the woman examine her green stained white fur around her red tinged sex. She gasped uncomfortably as Mrs. Athens invaded her stretched canal with her fingers and pulled out red tinged fingers but the blood was not copious and was thick. She smiled to the collie who lapped her folds softly to clean herself up form the dribble of blood and soreness.

Satisfied the collie was in good health after her whelping the woman smiled. "If you need any help, please ask and I'll help you." She looked to Jake, "That goes for you too Jake." She looked at the new father and smiled to him before heading to the ladder and descending watching the new parents until they were out of site.

Jake looked at his mate and carefully handed his son to his mate to feed him. The pup was silent as he found the nipple and kneaded at the enlarged breast for milk. Jake smiled and kissed his mate. "you are truly wonderful" he murred.

Friday smiled and panted still sore from her whelping and tired from the excitement and stress she laid her head down in Jakes' lap and closed her eyes and was quickly asleep with their pup nursing from her.

The collie dog pet his bitch and his pup. He was happy, but there was worry in his mind. He began to think about what Friday had taught him, he began to realize what could happen to him and his family. And he put his paw on her shoulder and his pups back, both were hot to his touch, the pup so soft so new. It only heightened his worry. He learned how fickle and cruel humans were, he realized how unstable his mistress was. And a new weight hit his heart, the weight of fear for his new family.

Friday moved under his touch and he snapped out of his dark thought, and looked down at her, her nose pressed to his groin taking comfort in his scent. He looked how soft she looked now, her synical features relaxed to show her youth, what she looked like with no worries. No she had no worries, he would protect her like he protected his wayward mistress. He trembled a bit but controlled it.

* * * * *

Tiffany looked out the recently replaced window at Jake and Friday. Friday held her pup to her, the young pup wiggling in Fridays arms, the pup replacing her toy she carried but this time she took it outside. Her mother had given Friday some blanket cradle she should wear to keep the pup close to her. Now the pup suckled for subsistence from his mother. He was going to be a beautiful boy with his fathers looks. Tiffany watched them work from out the back window, Jimmy looked over at her and she waved meekly as if caught doing something. Jimmy waved back and continued to work.

Jake worried about their pup, the farm had suffered greatly financially because of Mark. He wondered if Tiffany would sell his pup, their pup. Jake and Friday never knew their parents, because it wasn't useful to humans to have them know them, they were taken as pups to be useful, and now he had a pup. How long would his mistress see him as useful? Would he be sold, to grow up like them to never know their parents? To breed or be tormented like his mate Friday was. They were worth money and this was only countered by their usefulness. He looked at his son and stroked his puppy ears and he mews around the nipple he kept in his mouth. Friday smiled to him and gave him a lick that he returned before returning to helping Jimmy put straw in the loft. His only worry was the future.
