Chapter 51: I'll Never Stop
When Kel went home that night, he felt a warm leap in his heart to see his Aliona kneeling near the fire: she had waited up for him. It was very late at night, for Kel had spent the better part of the evening wandering the edge of the northern forest with his spear on his shoulder and thinking to himself with a frown of how he could make things right with Loryn.
Aliona looked up and smiled, and he felt a sudden flash of anger: why hadn't she told him about the threesome? All this time, and she hadn't said a word. He'd been back for days! He felt his jaw clench tight and did not return Aliona's smile. She turned her blue eyes miserably to the fire and said as Kel hung his spear in the rack,
"So Loryn told you."
Kel sat at his wife's side. He swallowed thickly, and Aliona knew he was trying to swallow down his anger: Kel never liked to lose his temper with Aliona. She was the last wolf to ever see him erupt, period.
"Why didn't you?" Kel demanded at last. He looked at Aliona with green eyes filled with hurt.
"Loryn asked me not to tell you. He wanted to tell you himself," was the quiet answer, then Aliona blurted, "Oh, Kel, I'm so sorry it happened! I told Loryn that we shouldn't, but he invited me to his hut and sent Zalia over to Lea's -- I -- I didn't want to stay here alone and --"
"It's okay, Aliona!" Kel cried, looking up with a smile. He took her paw in his own, and squeezing it, he whispered, "Honey, it's okay." He kissed her paw, and feeling very relieved, Aliona smiled and rested her head on Kel's shoulder. He closed his arm tight around her and held her close.
"So . . . you're not angry?" Aliona said tentatively after a pause.
Kel laughed. "Aliona! I have had at least four other lovers outside our marriage. How could I be angry if you were with Kira once? But the thought of you with anyone else and me not there with you . . ." Kel heaved a shuddering breath, and Aliona looked up at him, her ears pricking forward at what was clearly jealousy in her husband's eyes.
"I always had to have you for myself," Kel admitted, looking a little ashamed of himself. "I was always willing to share you with Zaldon: being with the two of you was a dream of mine for years. But you together with Loryn . . ."
"Are you sure you don't mean that you've always wanted Loryn for yourself?" Aliona said with a wise little smile.
Kel bit his lip and said nothing.
"Loryn has been your lover from the very start, your best friend, your confidant. In a way, he's always been yours, even before Kira wanted him, even before you wanted me, you and he were lovers. The thought of Loryn being with me and you not there between us, of us enjoying sex without you . . . I can understand how that would make you feel. How many times did I secretly feel left out when you and Zaldon were off somewhere alone?"
"Oh, Aliona, if I had ever known . . ." Kel started apologetically.
"No, Kel, don't apologize to me. I wanted you to be happy, so I said, 'yes, go and be with Zaldon -- this wolf that we care for, go to him!' And Loryn did the same thing for me with Kira. Though in hindsight, it really wasn't his place."
"Yes, I know," agreed Kel darkly.
"Kel! What did you do to Loryn!" Aliona scolded. Her head snapped around and she peered up at Kel in alarm.
Kel's ears went flat on his head and he shamefully admitted, "I lost my temper . . . I hit him."
"Oh, Kel!"
Kel squeezed his eyes shut. "I know, I know. But Loryn really went too far this time!"
"What did the two of you do!" Aliona demanded, pulling back to look over her husband for bites and cuts. "You didn't roll around fighting, did you!"
Kel shook his head, amused by Aliona's frightened blue eyes. "No, no, my Aliona," he gently assured her. He stroked a tender paw down the long dark shadow of her mane. "I just hit him once, we had it out, and . . . I discovered something. Something I guess that deep down . . . I already knew."
"What?" Aliona whispered, gazing up at her husband with curious blue eyes.
Kel gave her a half-smile. "Aliona, when you said I wanted Loryn for myself, I think you had that backwards. It's not so much that I wanted Loryn for myself, though I have missed being with him for the longest time."
Kel swallowed and stared thoughtfully at the fire before continuing, "No, it's the other way around. Loryn wants me to himself. Being with you and Zaldon all these years, I kind of pushed him aside without meaning to. Of course, he resented that. I mean, like you said -- he was my first lover! He was the first wolf to ever touch me, the first wolf to kiss me . . ." Kel started to blush just thinking about it, their young bodies twisting under the waterfall as they touched and kissed each other, their moans and cries muffled by the crashing water. "And probably . . . the first wolf to love me. He confessed to me some years ago that he'd been in love with me all this time -- romantically, the way Zaldon is. There was even a time when Loryn wanted us to be partners."
Aliona shook her head, bewildered. "So why didn't he ever approach you about it? Why did he keep it a secret?"
"That's the thing," answered Kel. "I just realized why Loryn does these things! I don't think he ever felt as if he could've made me happy. I would have wanted him to settle down. I would have gone even farther than Kira: I wouldn't have let him fuck around at all. Loryn wouldn't have accepted that and we both would have been miserable." Kel gave a sad laugh. "It was finally Lea who tamed the beast."
Aliona laughed too, reflecting that if not for Lea's abduction several years ago, Loryn may never have grown up at all.
"Kel," Aliona said, "you have to do something to make things right. You have to make up with Loryn."
Kel sighed. "I know. But . . . how?"
"Maybe we should make Loryn happy," Aliona said mischievously.
"Aliona!" Kel cried when his wife's meaning became clear.
Aliona laughed softly at Kel's alarm. She squeezed his arm and went on, "Kel, Loryn needs to be reminded just how much you love him. Knowing that you still care about him, that you still love him and want him -- that would make him happy again. Because that's all he wants from you, Kel. That isn't much to ask."
Kel gazed thoughtfully at the fire and admitted, "You're right, Aliona. I'll remind him -- I'll remind him so good he'll never forget!"
Aliona laughed.
"And what about you?" Kel went on playfully. He lifted Aliona's chin and kissed her tenderly on the lips.
Aliona pulled back and it was her turn to be alarmed. "Me?" she cried, her ears pricking forward.
"You. Haven't you felt neglected at times? Left out? Do you need reminding too?"
"Kel, d-don't be silly, I'm -- I'm f-fine -- KEL!"
Aliona squealed her husband's name as she was suddenly pinned to the sitting furs. Her breasts bounced hard under her shawl and her legs kicked around her husband's hips as she whispered frantically between shocked screams, "Kel, d-don't -- wait -- Oh, not there . . ." Aliona moaned when her clit started to throb, moaned as her husband's eager paws explored her. She kept thrashing her little feet and shapely legs against the air, a feeble attempt to escape. But Kel kept her pinned down, his paw massaging under her shawl with a mischievous little smile. He ripped her shawl open with his teeth and the little wooden buttons flew across the room. Aliona let out a shrill cry when he started sucking vigorously on her nipple, squeezing and pumping her other big tit in his fingers.
"Oh, K-Kel . . . no . . ." She closed her eyes and whispered to herself, "Oh, god . . ."
"You may be saying no," Kel whispered between tender sucks, "but your body's saying yes . . ." So saying, he slipped his fingers between Aliona's pussy lips and stretched them wide apart, a silent nod to the fact that she was moist and swollen and more than aroused. Her pussy lips squirmed and squelched around him, heaving in a silent strain, heaving with a hunger for his cock.
"Oh, but, Kel . . ." Aliona softly protested.
"What is it? You old fashioned? Want a proposal first?" Kel backed off, and kneeling down on one knee, he offered Aliona his paw, to which she giggled like a girl.
"Aliona, since the moment I first saw you," said Kel, taking her paw and kissing it, "I had to have you for myself. Aliona, I love you -- I've always loved you! And you don't have to worry: I just want to make you happy. My whole life will revolve around that!"
"If you give that to me," returned Aliona, putting on a pose of mock composure between giggles, "then I will gladly make you happy in return."
"Then you'll be mine?"
"Why, yes!"
"Then I am yours!" Kel cried, and with a mock growl, he pinned Aliona down again.
She giggled under him as he showered her neck with kisses, and he loved the way her bosom heaved against him with all her blushing and squirming.
"Now that I've formally proposed," teased Kel between kisses, "there's the matter of this . . ."
Aliona colored up when she felt the soft head of his cock nudge at her.
"Kel, you c-can't possibly want --" Aliona stammered, blushing. They weren't exactly young anymore, and he hadn't shown this much energy in years. It frightened and aroused her all at once.
Kel rocked his hips playfully against Aliona, and she could feel with a little blush that he was rigid for her. The soft head of his cock was nudging carefully at her throbbing clit, purposely teasing her into pulsing hard against him. She wriggled and protested, so frightened suddenly: Kel was as wild as if this was the mating season!
"Oh, Aliona, I want you. You have no idea how I want you . . ." Kel leaned down close to his wife and whispered, "Kiss me!"
Suddenly breathless and consumed by her desire, Aliona closed her mouth over Kel's, and she choked behind the kiss when she felt him suddenly filling her. He rocked against her, loving the way her breasts slapped gently against him, the fluttering of her lashes, her little moans as he made careful love to her. God, he had missed this! He buried his face in her heaving cleavage, and with a sudden growl, he fucked Aliona faster, harder.
Aliona cried out, shocked by her husband's arousal. His big paws smoothed up the back of her thighs, then he placed her leg on his shoulder and hunched to get deeper inside. Her leg shot straight up and shivered from this deep and desperate thrust. She arched her back under him, unable to believe the thrills of pleasure that Kel's thick cock could still give her after so many years. Panting to catch her breath, she fumbled for Kel's face, then pulled him down and kissed him.
Kel dropped his forehead against Aliona's and grimaced as his passion climaxed. "Aliona," he whispered breathlessly, humping her faster, rocking against her, "I'm going to come!"
Aliona was wheezing breathlessly under him, her mouth open, her tongue even hanging out as she panted. Her breasts were practically flapping in her face from Kel's eager thrusts, her mane was in her eyes. "Kel . . . I'm coming too! Come with me -- please, come with me --"
"I'll try, but you make it so hard . . . god, Aliona, you're so fucking wet . . . Oh, honey, yes . . . suck those pussy lips on me . . ."
They kissed and moaned against each other's lips as it happened. Kel dropped his head and grimaced, crying out as his hot fluids exploded inside his wife. Aliona's head fell back to receive his passion and her own juices spilled over his shaft, running down his balls, seeping in their fur.
Kel slumped on top of his wife, and they lay beside the fire, panting, gasping to catch their breath. He kissed Aliona slowly, tenderly on the lips and whispered, "Are you happy, my Aliona?"
Aliona smiled back, and throwing her arms around Kel's neck, she kissed his cheek and hugged him tight. Kel was startled by this sudden affection, but smiling to himself, he hugged Aliona in return and happily drank in the sweet scent of her mane. He felt a sudden surge of love for this slender, for this beautiful creature when she whispered in his ear, "I'm happier with you than you'll ever know."
When Kel entered Loryn's hut the next afternoon, it was to find his best friend reclining in a wooden chair near the window. Loryn had the chair kicked back on two legs, his heels were resting on the windowsill, and his legs were crossed. Kel halted in the doorway: Loryn had a pipe in the corner of his mouth! The pipe was very long and wooden, something Kilyan had probably given his father-in-law behind Kel's back. It was common knowledge, after all, that Kel despised drugs that weren't medicinal, even alcohol.
Kel folded his arms and cleared his throat in an admonishing sort of way, but Loryn kept his dark eyes fixed on the gray sky beyond the window. A low fire crackled nearby, and with the blasting heat of the fire and Loryn's puffing pipe, Kel didn't know how Loryn could even breathe in the hut.
"If you're waiting for me to invite you in," Loryn said at last, "I'm not." His dark eyes smiled derisively at Kel, then drifted back to the window.
Kel, of course, came in anyway. He pulled up a chair near Loryn and sat down, resisting the urge to snatch that stupid pipe and chuck it in the fire. He angrily narrowed his eyes but didn't move when Loryn blew a mocking wreath of smoke in his face.
"What do you want, Kel?" he demanded, putting his big arms behind his head.
"To fuck you."
It was hard to shock Loryn, but it happened. Loryn choked on the pipe and dropped all four legs of his chair to the floor with a bang. He yanked the pipe out of the corner of his mouth, then gazed at Kel in amazement. When Kel only stared at him with completely serious green eyes, Loryn shook his head and gave a low whistle.
"You really don't know how to take a hint, huh?" he said darkly and rose from the chair.
Kel watched him go to the fire, and squatting down, he upturned his pipe and tipped the ashes into the flames. Then he went to a shelf and carefully set his pipe on it. Kel watched as he stretched his arms above his head, watched as those tight muscles in his back flexed.
"We had an argument, Kel, in case you forgot. That means I don't fuck you. I don't touch you. I don't kiss you." Loryn laughed bitterly to himself. "It's not like I've touched you for ten years anyway. Why don't you twist that ring and have Zaldon jerk you off? Zaldon is all you want, remember?"
Without even looking back, Loryn went to the curtain that blocked off the hall. He was pulling it aside when he suddenly felt Kel grab his arm. He didn't turn, just heaved a weary sigh.
"I'm not here for you to fuck me. I'm here to fuck you," Kel said.
"I'm not going to the waterfall with you, so don't ask."
"I won't."
Kel leaned forward and closed his mouth over Loryn's. He felt a flutter of happiness when Loryn kissed him back with trembling lips, but as if he'd suddenly caught himself, Loryn pulled his lips away. He dropped his forehead against Kel's a moment and stood there breathless, his eyes closed. Kel waited on tenterhooks for Loryn's reaction. He felt dismal when Loryn finally placed a firm paw on his chest, and looking him square in the eye, he said, "Kel, this isn't going to happen. You made your choice. Now let it be."
With that, Loryn turned and disappeared up the hall. He halted again when Kel followed after him.
"No," Kel growled. "It's not going to be that way! Look at this -- look!" Kel gestured to the feathered talisman on his upper arm. "Remember when we were little pups and we traded talismans? Remember that?"
Loryn shrugged dispassionately, but Kel could see the flash of misery he could not hide.
"It was a symbol of our friendship," Kel went on in earnest. "It was a symbol of this bond we have -- this friendship that will never, never die. Loryn --" Kel took a halting step forward and cupped Loryn's face. He was saddened by the raw misery in those black eyes! "I love you! I've always loved you! You're my best friend, my first lover, and that's never going to change -- not because of Zaldon, not because of Aliona. And . . . I'm sorry if I forgot that for a while."
Loryn closed his eyes again and smiled a little to himself when Kel pulled him down close and kissed his cheek. Standing in the shadowy hall, they dropped their foreheads together, silently drinking in each other's smells, feeling the heat of each other's bodies. Loryn ran his paw up the flexing muscles of Kel's neck and to the corner of his jaw, thinking with a sigh that Kel had always been too damned pretty for his own good.
"I just didn't want you to forget about me . . ."
"I know, Loryn, I'm sorry," Kel whispered back.
"Did you really come here to . . .?"
"Fuck you? If it makes you happy."
Loryn closed his eyes again and laughed as his own words were echoed back at him. Kel was glad to see that handsome smile. With their foreheads still touching, they smiled into each other's eyes.
"You gonna be gentle?" Loryn teased with a grin. He waved his paw in a feminine gesture. "I always was such a tender thang."
Kel laughed. "I thought you liked it rough?"
"Been talking to Zaldy?"
He laughed when Kel blushed, and taking his paw, he led him up the hall and into the bedroom he shared with Kira. Kel looked around: this was the first time in thirty-something years that he had ever been inside this intimate and withdrawn room at the back of Loryn's hut. He still remembered the first time he'd ever come to Loryn's hut: Loryn had invited Kel, Zaldon, and Yzlo to come and see the hut that his father had built for him.
Entering the bedroom, Kel's green eyes peered through the gloom. He could see an open closet with extra sleeping furs piled inside, a low table, a few cabinets that had once stood in Lea's room (for Lea's name had been childishly scratched on them, no doubt by her). He saw the wide and lavish bed that Loryn had bragged about expanding for Kira as the years went by, and under a window that emitted a few pale streaks of sunlight, a vase of dried flowers spilled their faint perfume against the air.
It was cool in the bedroom and dark. Kel watched with a quiet hunger as Loryn knelt before the closet and rummaged for sleeping furs: so he didn't wish to make a mess of his marriage bed? Kel smiled to himself when Loryn squatted beside the bed and spread a new pile of sheets over the old ones. His hard thighs were opened to reveal his cock and balls, and Kel drank in their smell with a soft moan of longing. He felt himself start getting hard when Loryn stretched himself out on the bed. His eyes traced over Loryn's body: his sculpted pecs and the little nipples, his rippling belly, the beautiful shape of his ass cheeks under his tail, those rounded calves . . . Oh, god. Kel felt his cock stand upright. Loryn laughed softly, and resting back on one elbow, he grinned at Kel and patted the sheets playfully.
Kel came to the bed. He hadn't been alone with Loryn like this for many years - not since the day he, Loryn, and Zaldon had that threesome under the waterfall, in fact. And he felt so nervous suddenly, remembering all the times when they were pups and Loryn had playfully spanked him before grabbing him by the tail and dragging him off into the bushes. He had teased that he was going to rape Kel, but it never happened: Loryn had always enjoyed just teasing Kel and seeing his body react to his skilled touch.
"So you want this, huh?" Loryn whispered when Kel was in the bed beside him. He took Kel's paw and closed it slowly over his cock. "Well, come and get it."
Kel didn't hesitate. He startled Loryn when he leaned over and kissed him deeply, massaging his cock into throbbing hard against him. His paws were everywhere, touching and caressing Loryn's thighs, his cock, his balls, He reached around and eagerly fingered that tight, hot place under Loryn's tail, moaning again to himself that his dick was going to be there very soon.
Kel blushed a little when Loryn purposely squeezed his anus around his finger. He rolled over onto his stomach, his black eyes hooded when Kel fingered him deeper. Kel sank two fingers now, loving the sight of Loryn sculpted body lying against the sheets, his nicely shaped ass, the deep line of his back. He felt himself get harder every time Loryn's chest heaved, every time Loryn grunted and whispered that it felt so good and where had Kel learned that? Kel confessed that he'd always wanted to finger Loryn, to which Loryn softly laughed, smiling with fond eyes up at Kel.
Kel pushed Loryn's tail back now, and before he knew he had done it, he leaned down and licked that tight, that hot place. He was surprised at himself. Loryn was too, but he moaned to feel Kel's tongue caressing him, slurping him, sucking him until that squirming pink knot was glossy with spit.
Unable to stand it much longer, Kel climbed on top of Loryn and carefully slid himself in. He moaned. Loryn was so hot and tight around him, squirming and stretching to take him in. He heard Loryn's sudden grunt, then he sighed his delight as Kel filled him. Kel leaned down close and started thrusting. He dropped his forehead against Loryn's neck, and their backs rolled together from the thrusts, their soft moans filled the room.
"Kel, I . . ." Loryn whispered as they rocked. He was leaning on his elbows and he dropped his head forward with a moan when Kel reached under and stroked him. "Oh, god . . ." Kel heard him whisper.
Kel's cheek was very close to Loryn's and he saw him close his eyes. A single tear escaped, clinging to his lashes.
"Loryn!"
"I thought you didn't love me anymore," Loryn whispered. "I couldn't stand it if you stopped loving me --"
"I'll never stop!" Kel assured him. "I may never stop fucking you either . . . my god . . ."
They laughed softly together: it was rare that any wolf took Loryn in the ass. Loryn was more of a top, not a bottom. And so he knew he was especially tight around Kel's thick cock. How many years he had dreamt of this? He closed his eyes with a little smile, frowning and groaning as their hard bodies moved in rhythm. Loryn curled his fingers in the sheets to steady himself, and when Kel closed his paw in warm affection over his . . . he knew he was loved.
Just to make sense of the madness: Loryn would have been fine with no more sex from Kel, but he thought Kel did not love him anymore. That's what had him so upset. So Kel gave him proof. Sorry for more babbling, but I felt as if I somehow failed to make what was going on clear. >.<
