Fallen Stars: Walking Alone

I woke up and looked up at the ceiling of my room. I smiled and relaxed, arms crossed behind my head as I thought back on what has happened to me recently.

After some months of pain and anguish, with my family not helping matters in the slightest, my dream girl came into the picture. Her name was Sno and she was just so damn beautiful. Snowy white fur covered her body and her long tail flickered from behind. She proclaimed her love for me and came down to see me on one condition from her father: We couldn't see each other for the rest of the day. God, I was going stir-crazy from that.

Soon, I saw her and I fell in love instantly. Love at first sight. I really didn't believe it at first, but when I felt how soft her fur was and her talk about how much she loved me, the conviction behind those words, it was real. I knew it.

We spent the next six months in each other's arms, never leaving them for anything. We slept together, watched TV together, showered together. It was amazing. And the sex was spectacular. Our first time together, where I took her virginity, was the deciding point for me. I wanted to be with her for the rest of my life. I sighed out at the fond memories of that fateful night, me pumping deep into her slit and filling her up with cum.

As I sighed, I felt her hand tightened around me as she started to wake up, smiling up at me and getting up to my level, shaking her lovely white hair that seemed to shimmer like stars in the night sky. She looked at me and giggled, her laugh melting my heart till it was a pile of warm goo. She wrapped her arms around me and kissed me lightly on the lips, warmth traveling down my entire body and penetrating deep into my core. All I could feel was happiness that seemed to flow straight out and radiated in the warm morning.

"You're staring at me. Is there something on my face?" she asked, looking around for a mirror to see if there was indeed something wrong with her face. I laughed. I couldn't help it. She was being so cute, being worried about her beauty when there was nothing wrong with her at all. She looked at me confused, wondering why I was laughing. I smiled at her and cupped her cheek, pulling her into a kiss and just looked deep into her baby blue eyes.

"Nothing's wrong. In fact, nothing could ever be more wrong. You're just perfect, Sno. Amazingly perfect..." I pulled her close and dropped down onto the pillows, her in my arms and giggling all the while. She stared up at me, smiling so brightly that again my heart melted, and snuggled into my chest, her fur brushing up against me softly.

We stayed like that for some time, just us snuggled against each other and just loving the other's company, when all of a sudden the door burst open and the light turned on. I jolted and flailed my arms around, completely caught off guard of what just happened and the light momentarily blinded me, sleep not giving up its hold on me. I turned and who do I see? My sister standing there with a scowl on her smug, little face. She looked at the scene with a smile and walked into my room.

"Mom told me to get you awake so you can go shopping with us, or did you forget about that?" she asked me, looking at me so god damn smugly that I wanted to just beat the crap out of her. Even if she was my sister, no one should just pop on in like they fucking owned the place and just ruin the mood of my mate.

_ Wait... Did I just think of Sno as my mate?_ I smiled at the thought and tried to pull her close to me, but she wasn't there. I looked down at the sheets to see that she wasn't there at all, just bundles of pillows and sheets that used to be under her. I looked around for her, wondering where she was, which caught the attention of my sister.

"What are you looking for? God, you're so weird. Get up, get dressed and come downstairs. Now." She turned and walked out of my room, not closing the door behind her. She just told me to get dressed and she didn't have the common sense of closing my bedroom door, leaving it wide open for God and everyone else to see me naked. I sighed and got up, moving to the closet I had and got out some clothes, a pair of cargo pants and a shirt that said "Dirty & Filthy & Grimey & Dubstep.", knowing that it was going to be freezing out there, I got a hoodie with a zipper and zipped it up to the pockets, leaving enough space to show some of the letters. I put on a cap and pulled the hood over my head, making me look somewhat mysterious to onlookers, at least that's what I hoped anyway.

As I put on my shoes, I felt hands slowly moving around my chest and I grabbed ahold of her wrist, looking over my shoulder to see her there, smiling and nuzzling into my back. "Why did you disappear like that, Sno?"

"Well, I didn't want your sister to see. I really didn't like the way she was treating you, Chris. She was walking all over you and you just stood there and took it. Why?" she looked at me with concern, making me turn around and look deep into her eyes. I looked down, slowly recalling why she and the whole family was treating me like crap.

"Over a year ago, I didn't make it to my second year of college. Since then, I've been living with my parents, doing whatever I did in my room, whether it was watching TV or looking around on the internet or listening to music. Either way, my dad just wanted me out and getting a job. We argue about that, saying that I will and he should just quit harassing me, but he always does. My mom means well, but I still do stuff for her while she's at work. My sister, my god awful sister, she's the worst of the three. What you just saw was a little taste of what she does to me now that I'm here. She demands me to do stuff for her, acting on behalf of mom and shit. I tell her I will, but she keeps pestering me and pestering me. She barges into my room for no reason, rats me out whenever it's convenient, and just basically makes my life a living hell. I had to deal with that for a year and a half now..." I then look up at her and smiled, feeling relief that she's still there with me and I'm not just talking to myself. "And then you showed up into my life. I wanted someone out there to love me, more than my own family did, and you answered my prayers." I moved to her and hugged her close, nuzzling into the soft fur and thinking that I was safe there, in her arms. "Thank you... Thank you for letting me know that there's someone who loves me..."

She wrapped her arms around me tightly, her head on my shoulder as she nuzzled against my neck. We stayed like this for some time, till I heard my mom yell for me downstairs. Sighing, I got up and got my iPod out of its charger and put in my earphones in. Blasting on South Central's "Dance of the Skeletons", I rushed down the stairs and into the living room. My mom was getting her purse ready and my sister was looking at me, before turning back to Kindle, reading something that had no interest in me. When we were ready, we piled into the car and drove off, me in the back seat while my mom and sis were up in the front. I closed my eyes as we drove to the mall for some shopping. I knew this was a shopping day for my sister, but I just wanted to get out of the house. I was starting to have some cabin fever.

I felt a hand grip at mine and I moved it around to tighten it, lifting up an eyelid to see my beautiful Sno in the other seat, smiling at me and letting me know that she wasn't going to leave my side. I went back to sleep, feeling safe and sound as we drove, with no bad dreams plaguing me.

***

Sno pushed on my shoulder, causing me to wake up when we were close to the mall. I smiled as I looked at her, dressed up in clothes that accentuated her beauty. She dressed up in a black tank top and a long flowing purple skirt that covered over her knees. Of course, only I could see her if she wanted me too, but I envied everyone that couldn't see what I saw.

We all got out of the car and headed towards the mall, staying close together as we searched for some stores for my sister to go on her shopping spree. I didn't have my phone, so I had to stay with them, much to my dismay. But, it wasn't a total bummer. At least I had Sno to keep me company. We looked in the stores where my family was and we would window shop. She would tell me that would look cute on her while that one was just plain ugly. I smiled at her, seeing her with a twinkle in her eye as we shopped around. The only time that I was excited to go into a store was going inside Hot Topic. Seeing all of those clothes and accessories, I just wanted to buy one for her. I could tell she liked what she was seeing; already looking at the more risqué stuff the store had to offer. I wanted more than anything to buy it for her, but it would raise questions from my mom and sister. So, I looked at necklaces that I could buy for her. She looked with me and saw something she liked. She pointed out a metal necklace that had wings on either side, connected by a series of chains in between them. The wings reminded me of something, but I didn't know what. She wanted it and I thought it looked cool, so I got it for her. Sure, it raised a few eyebrows and some questions from my sister and mother, but I shrugged it off, paying for it and walking out to continue the rest of the day.

Soon, after several hours of walking around and looking through different stores, we finally decided to go home. When we all piled into the car, I pulled out the necklace and laid it out in the middle. I saw her pick it up and put it around her neck, smiling at me and snuggling close to me. I wished I could hold her close, but I didn't want to draw attention from my mom and sis. "Later," I whispered low enough for Sno to hear and she got the message, moving under my hood and nuzzling my neck, letting me feel her soft fur. "Okay, baby... It's a promise." She moved up to kiss my cheek lovingly, sighing happily against me as we rode back home. I dropped a hand out of my pocket and placed it on her thigh, slowly going underneath the skirt and moving up and down her furry thigh. She sighed and cooed out softly, loving how delicately I moved my hand up and down the soft furry thigh.

All throughout the ride back home we stayed like this, I never spoke a word or made a sound, but she was just in pure heaven. Her hands traveled all around my body, slowly moving up my chest and around my neck. She then kissed me deeply and passionately, her tongue licking at my lips slowly. Soon, she pulled away and started to nibble on my earlobe, whispering softly into my ear. "Come on, baby.... You know you want this.... Have at it, love.... It's all yours, forever more, my wonderful and loving mate...."

When we pulled up to the house, I got out and Sno fell into the seat. I went inside and got up to my room to see her looking a little steamed at this, but I smiled at her as I closed the door and walked to her.

"Why did you leave me like that, Chris? You could've at least helped me up and- hmmph?!!" As she was talking, I moved up to her and kissed her deeply, taking off my jacket and shoes, tossing them to the side. I pushed her down slowly onto the bed as I continued to kiss her, a hand traveling up her frame towards the hem of her top. I moved underneath it and traveled up to her breasts, my hand rubbing along her fur oh so slowly that it was driving her insane. When I reached the silk that surrounded her breast, knowing she put a bra on so I would have to work for it, I chuckled and removed her top and tossed it to the side. "You're such a tease, " I said, moving back to kiss her as I unclasped her bra and tossed it to the growing pile of clothing. She looked at me with lust filled eyes and smiled softly, tongue licking up my cheek as she whispered softly. "You know you love it." She moved a hand down to my pants, slowly moving up the bulge that was growing, a finger lightly tracing up towards the tip. Soon, her hands moved up under my shirt, her pads tickling my skin and making the hairs on the back of my head stand up.

"Let's get rid of the offending clothing, shall we?" she asked, hands moving down to the hem of my shirt, pulling it up and over my head. When the fabric cleared, I saw that she already had her skirt and panties off, her side turned to me and a hand on her hip, just looking so damn sexy. I smiled, knowing that she loved me and she wanted to give herself to me and only me. That thought alone made my heart burst forth with happiness as I took the rest of my clothes off and laid with her, my hand trailing up her side. I just couldn't get over how soft and fluffy her fur was. Her tail curled behind me, trailing up my back. That alone made me moan out. "And that reaffirms what I said before: You're such a tease..."

She giggled and wrapped her arms around my neck, kissing on my lips lightly and staring into my eyes with love and adoration. "My stars, you're so amazing...." She moved a hand and ran it through my hair slowly, looking at my body with admiration. I just wondered what she could see in this scraggly body of mine. I mean, I don't look good. But, she sees something on my face that, in her eyes, makes me the sexiest man alive.

By now, her hands travel down my chest, towards my penis. She slowly wraps her hand around it, getting it into a nice grip. She then starts to stroke it oh so slowly, coming up to the tip to squeeze it a bit before going back down to the base. She really knows how to drive a man wild. I thought, just loving how good she can work my cock up to full length. She took her time, knowing that she was going to have the time of her life. I moved a hand up to cup her breast, squeezing it lightly. She looked at me and moved up to kiss my cheek lightly, nuzzling up against my cheek and nibbling on my neck, giggling and cooing when I licked along her neck and brushed over her nipple with my thumb. My other hand snaked its way down towards her slit, going over her well-toned stomach, feeling her muscles down there. I just couldn't believe that this furry woman that was naked in my bed, right here and right now, loved me.

She probably noticed how lost in thought I was, because her moved close to my face and kissed me deeply, a hand cupping my cheek as her tongue snaked out and started to sneak its way into my mouth. Soon, it did, slithering its way over to my tongue and wrapped around it, licking all over the inside of my mouth. It reminded me of a dog's tongue lapping away at a water bowl, except this was slower and more controlled, going over every part of my mouth. She closed her eyes and moaned into my mouth, drawing out the moan and raising it up in pitch as I finally reached down towards her slit and started to rub up and down along the wet folds.

She opened her eyes to me, the baby blue looking so sexy and amazing. She pulled away from me, spreading her legs and pulling me towards her wet pussy. Seeing it, the fine hairs surrounding it and the wetness on her folds, reminding me of dewdrops on flower petals, made me wish I could just stare at it forever. But, I had to take care of my mate. So, I moved around to where my cock was close enough to where the tip was just a hair's breath away from rubbing up against her folds. Feeling the heat surrounding it, she moaned without me even touching her. The heat from my manhood alone tickled over her folds and her sensitive clit. That was something to be proud of, but I had something else on my mind.

I started to rub along her slit slowly, my cock becoming covered in her sweet juices. She cooed and looked at me, rubbing up my arms and chest, her nails tracing around parts of my body that interested her. She paid particular attention to my belly button and nipples, flicking over them teasingly and rubbing along the inside of my belly button. I reached out to her breasts, wanting something to grab a hold of and wanted to tease her more. Gripping at her wondrous orbs and tracing circles around her areola, getting closer and closer to her nipples, she moaned out my name. "Oh, Chris..." she looked at me with eyes half-closed, "I love you so much. You are, without a doubt, the one for me. No one can match your kindness, your quirky sense of humor and, best of all..." she leans up towards me, kissing me deeply and passionately, hands wrapping around the back of my neck. She pulled away and just smiled seductively at me, eyes in slits, "... you are an amazing lover."

With that, I rubbed my head against her folds. My hands were around her back as she moaned and thrusted her head back, showing me a whole lot of neck. I took advantage of that, leaning forward and nibbling lightly on it as I slowly pushed my head past her lips, soon feeling her walls tighten around my length, pulling me in towards her awaiting womb. The feeling of her walls sent shivers down my spine. They were just perfect fit for my dick, like it was made for it. She dug her nails into my skin, making indents where her nails were, letting me know just how much she loved it.

Soon, I was all the way in, my tip barely brushing up against the opening of her womb. I knew from the pleased and lusty expression on her face that she was in pure heaven and ecstasy. I moved down and kissed her deeply and passionately, and she gladly returned my affection. Soon, I pulled out of her, teasing her with emptiness again. She whimpered at this, looking at me with sad puppy dog eyes, wanting to be filled. When I was almost out of her, I quickly pushed back in, filling her up again and hitting against her other opening. She groaned and moved with the thrust, her breasts swaying up towards her face before setting back down. I repeated this for some time, her moans quickly rising in volume. To add to her pleasure, I moved down to her breasts and slowly licked around her nipples, going back and forth between her lovely breasts. I took one into my mouth and started to suck on it, my tongue continuing to move around in circles around the hardening nub.

When I felt her clamp down on my cock, I groaned out. Looking down at her with love, she looked up at me with the same face, cocking her head to the side and pushing a strand of hair out of my eyes, cupping my cheek as I pounded deep into her. She moved up to kiss me again, hands wrapped around me possessively, pulling me ever closer to her. Her legs wrapped around my hips, pushing even deeper into her as I continued to pump in and out of her warm and tight love canal.

Soon, it was too much for me. I couldn't hold back any longer as she moaned out in pure ecstasy, her walls getting as tight as she could and came all over my cock. Her juices flowed out and coated my cock up to the base. With the added lubrication, I went faster and faster, her walls sporadically clenching and unclenching around my dick made the climax approach much quicker than normal. Soon, I groaned out, head held back as I came deep inside her. With each thrust, I shot a stream into her waiting womb, coating it in the white fluid.

After some time, and after much coaxing from her pussy around my cock, I was completely drained of seed as I laid on top of her, nuzzling into her sweaty neck. She cooed out and rubbed up and down my back, licking along my neck, tasting my sweat. I pushed up and stared deep into her eyes, cupping her cheek and stroking it with my thumb. She moved a hand to take mine that was on her cheek as she smiled up at me, her eyes bright with happiness and love. "Chris, every minute I'm with you, I feel as though I'm living in a dream."

"Well, we better not wake up, huh?" I said as I kissed her deeply, pulling away to whisper, "or that would surely suck for the both of us." She giggled and kissed back, turning me over so that we laid on our sides. I smiled as I placed my hand on her hip and just lazily rubbed it, feeling her tail draped around my hips and up my back. I moved my hand up to grab at her tail, pulling it up to my chest and snuggled with it. She laughed at this and moved close to me, snuggling into her tail as well. She groggily looked up at me, showing exactly how tired she was from our escapades, and said, "I'm so tired, baby... Let us sleep together, just like this..." I smiled at her and kissed her again. "Okay, love. We have forever to be together...." I mumbled out and held her close to me, her tail between us and sleep took its hold on our bodies and our eyes drooped down. The last thing I heard was her breathing, soft and slow, going at a pace that made me go to sleep faster. Soon, I couldn't hear or see anything. Just pure blackness that was comforting.

***

White.

Just pure white all around me.

Soon, the white started to fade away and was replaced with a brightly lit room. It looked like a living room for someone's home, the way it was oriented. I was sitting on the couch, relaxed and watching TV, when I felt something on my thigh. I looked down to see a hand, though I didn't recognize it. It was completely black. Black as night. I followed up the hand to an arm and continued up till I came to a face. My first thought was Sno?, but it wasn't right. Something seemed off about her. She turned to me and smiled wide. At first, it was warm and inviting. But as she continued to smile bigger, it was starting to become creepy, like it was forced on.

"Hey there, Chris!" I jumped a little. How the hell does she know my name? I stared at her and, judging from the expression on my face, she laughed. It wasn't a genuine laugh. It was forced upon, same as the smile. "What? Don't recognize me? It's the fur color, right? Hold on." She closed her eyes and concentrated for a bit. Soon, I saw a shimmer going from top to bottom, seeing the color of her fur change before my eyes. From the top of her head, it shimmered from midnight black to pure white, traveling down the rest of the way, till it really did look like Sno. Yet, something was still off with her. She wasn't Sno in the slightest.

"Who are you?" I asked, backing away a little, hoping to not draw attention to myself as I continued to scoot further and further away from the Sno wannabe.

"What? Don't you recognize me, dear? It's me! Your darling Sno!" she leaned forward and moved along with me, moving up to my chest as her whole body came close to mine.

I looked at this imposter and said plainly, "You're not Sno." I got up and walked towards the door. As I was about an arm's length away from the handle, I felt something wrap around my waist. I looked back to see the imposter still on the couch, her arm stretched out to grab at my waist tightly, slowly lifting me up into the air.

"Aww... and here I thought I was." She got up and dropped her disguise, looking like a bipedal anthro jackal. Pure midnight black from head to toe like before, but the features were different. Her head was like a jackal; tall, straight and pointed ears with a longer muzzle and golden eyes that showed malice and disgust.

"Well, no matter. I was glad to drop that disguise. It was repulsive." She shuddered as she said this, the arm shaking up along and moving me around like a rag doll.

"Watch what you say about my mate, you fuckin' bitch!" I shouted down at her. I really do think of her as my mate. I saw that she looked at me with such calm that it scared me a little, only to find the restrains around me tightened to the point of almost breaking something. I screamed in pain and agony, wanting to make it stop. After a few more seconds, she relented, but still had her hold on me. I panted hard, like I went through a workout or something, every fiber of my being screamed in pain.

"Don't talk back to someone who could crush you like a soda can, dear... Now, tell me, how did you see through my disguise? I know that even most magicians would have to look really hard to see through the image, and I know that you really couldn't see through it at all. So, tell me..." she squeezed again, a little lighter than before but still hurt like crap. "How did you see through my disguise?"

I panted more, glad that she was allowing me to breathe, and spoke, "I felt something off when I saw you. I knew that even when I saw you in the black fur."

"Damn. Thought you would play that off as a trick of the mind. Aw well, better just kill you now and save myself some trouble." She then started to crush my body. Man, the pain was unimaginable. I felt my lungs being crushed under the pressure she was putting on my body. I thought that this was the end. I thought that thing that was in those Freddy Krueger movies: If you die in a dream, you die for real. I hoped it wasn't real, but with the way she was putting on the pressure on my body and the eyes she had on me, I could tell that this was true.

I closed my eyes and waited for the end.

I dropped like a stone from where I was.

I felt hands wrap around me.

They were warm and inviting. I knew it was her. I was saved once again.

My guardian angel.

My Sno.

***

I woke up and sprung up from the bed, sweating profusely like I ran a mile, even though the fan was on full blast. I ran a hand through my hair, slick with sweat as well. Why am I dreaming like that? The only time someone dreams this vividly is when something is about to happen to him. But what? I ran down my body slowly, seeing if the pain I felt in the dream was for real. I eased down my chest, applying the smallest amount of pressure, not feeling any pain whatsoever. I pushed harder. Nothing.

Seeing that I was okay, I sighed out in relief, but I was still puzzled. I looked down to see Sno, still sleeping peacefully, as though nothing happened. I continued to look, noticing how she slept. Her breathing was soft, her chest barely moving. At first glance, you couldn't tell that she was sleeping. But, the more you look and appreciate the wondrous beauty she had, she slept like an angel.

I moved back down and held her close. She sighed happily and snuggled into my chest, hands curled up and pushed against me. She really did look so god damn amazing as she slept. With that final thought of the night, I curled up with her and fell back to sleep, the bad dreams not plaguing me at all.

***

I woke up, feeling refreshed and ready to go. I looked over to see... nothing. Sno wasn't there. I got up and looked around, not seeing her anywhere. I started to get worried, but I kept cool. She disappears at the most random times, so it was okay. As the day progressed, I was getting restless. Where is she? I wondered. I miss her.

I laid back in my bed, holding onto a pillow for comfort. I waited some more, not seeing a hint of my precious Sno. I sighed and curled up with the pillow, closing my eyes as I took a nap.

***

Feeling someone shove on my shoulder, I groggily woke up. I looked up and saw someone looming over the bed. I rubbed my eyes and got a clearer picture as to who it was. It was Sno. "Oh, thank god!" I moved forward and hugged her. She pulled away, looking a little embarrassed about it, and said, "Not right now. We have company."

I looked behind her to see a white wolf and a white lion, all dressed up in armor, looking like guards. I looked back to Sno and asked her what's up. She looked away a bit, biting her bottom lip, and looked back to me. "My parents want to see you. They want to see the man that has stolen my heart."

"Oh? Do they know anything about me?"

"No," she said, looking away again, "not really. They know your personality and everything else about you. Just..."

"They don't know what I look like?" I asked, a bemused smile on my face as I cupped her cheek and kissed her lips. Despite the fact that we had an audience, I had to comfort her somehow.

She relaxed a bit, wrapping her arms around me. She pulled away after a while, looking up at me with happy eyes. She cupped my cheek and moved my hair around. "Oh, babe... You know just what to say, don't you?"

I chuckle and shrug, looking at her. "Maybe. Don't know. I just say what's on my mind. Now, about the welcoming committee..." I pointed to the two guards, who perked up at the mention of them. She looked towards them and they stood up straighter than I've seen anyone do. They looked like they were trying to touch the ceiling with just their heads by how much they were straining to stand straight.

She giggled at them and looked back towards me. "Well, they're here to take us to my home. My dad doesn't trust me to travel alone." She hugged me close, nuzzling into my chest. "But, I did it anyway... for you, dear."

I smiled and kissed her lips again, pulling her up off the bed and looking deep into her eyes. "So, when do we leave?"

"As soon as you pack, silly boy!" She playfully smacked my arm and motioned for me to get clothes out of the closet.

"How long do you think I'll be staying there?" I asked, getting clothes out of the closet and piling them onto the bed. I didn't know how long I'll be there, so I got about a week's worth of clothes. She moved over and shook her head a bit. "Bring about 3 or 4 pairs of clothing, baby. Apparently, we're coming to visit him in time for the festival."

"Festival? What festival?" I asked, mesmerized by the mere mention of the word 'festival'.

"Why, the Festival! It is our annual festival where everyone from all over come together and celebrate another year of living. We honor our fallen with a ceremony and we have a huge feast every day! You'll love it, babe. Besides, they'll have some great music and there'll be dancing and other festivities! But, before all of that, you'll have to win the approval of my parents."

_ Okay. No problem. I can handle parents._ As I packed, she talked to the guards, wondering what has happened in the six months she's lived with me. I couldn't make it out, but I heard exclamations from her every now and then, some laughter shared with all three of them, and some comforting words when a friend or close one died.

When I was all packed, I turned around to them and waited for them to acknowledge me. Sno turned around and walked to me, wrapping her arm around my waist and kissing my cheek. "Ready to go, lover boy?"

"Indeed I am, baby." I kissed her back, making to grab at the bags. The guards saw this and rushed forward so fast that I flinched when they got close. I saw that they had all of my bags in their hands and holding up with no problem. I smiled at them and nodded my thanks, turning to her and kissing her again.

"Let's go!" I said, watching the guards move ahead of me. One pulled out a key and moved over to a blank wall. When he moved the key close to the wall, a door materialized. The key fitted inside the lock and he turned, the door clicking, letting us know that it was unlocked. He moved his hand to the doorknob and twisted it, pushing it opened. He stepped in, followed by the other guard and my mate, who held onto my hand and was pulling me along towards the door. When I stepped through the threshold, the door closed behind me and dematerialized, fading back into the wall. I looked around and my jaw just dropped.

I was in a really decked out room. A big room. The ceiling was high up, with glass covering over our heads instead of plywood. I stared up into the sky, seeing a rich deep blue that my eyes have never experienced. I was pulled along to a door, which opened into a girl's room. It was adorned with some pink and white, with a little red, black and blue sprinkled in. In the middle of the far wall was the bed, a four-poster bed with flowing drapes of white with pink edges. One wall was covered in photos and posters. The posters were of bands, movie quotes, and other things that would interest me. The photos that adjourned the wall were of me in various shots and angles. Obviously, she liked to look at me growing up throughout the years.

The guards dropped my things down onto the floor and saluted towards us. I returned the salute with one of my own and dropped it. They left the room, leaving us alone in my mate's room. Looking around, I also saw that she had her own bathroom that put my parent's master bath to shame. A bathtub that was more of a hot tub, a sink large enough to go bobbing for apples, and a walk in closet that was like a small boutique. She was loaded, no doubt.

I looked back to her and saw that she was looking sheepishly away from me, rubbing the back of her legs with her tail. I figured that she was embarrassed over the stuff she had, so I walked up to her and pulled her close to me, carrying her to the bed to lay her down and worm my way to her. I nibbled on her neck and kissed all over her face. She giggled and wrapped her arms around my neck, kissing deeply and passionately. I looked down at her lovingly and said, "Baby, don't be embarrassed over the stuff you have. It's fine. In fact, I should be embarrassed because you've been living with my stuff for over six months now."

She laughs and nuzzles against me. "Dear, I always wanted to live the simple life. I envied you more, if you could believe that." She looked away, embarrassed over her confession.

I cupped her cheek and pulled her head towards mine, my eyes shining in the bright room. I kissed her deeply and smiled at her. "Dear, while I'm flattered you were envious of me and my life, I'm more envious of you. But, before we start arguing about who had the better life..." She giggled at that. "We better go ahead and meet your parents, huh?"

"No. Not yet, at least. We have plenty of time before we meet them. It's during the opening ceremony that I'm supposed to show you off."

"What? Like a race horse or a champion dog?" I chuckled at that, looking at her and seeing the realization on her face when she figured it out. She then started to laugh with me for a few minutes, our laughter infectious until we were out of breath and sighed out, relaxing with each other.

"So, what do you want to do now, baby?" I asked, my hand draping around her waist, going up and down her back. I trailed butterfly kisses up and down her neck as well, letting her feel the love I have for her.

She giggled and pushed me back gently, smiling softly up at me. "Babe, don't do that right now. We need to prepare for what you're supposed to do for the ceremony."

There was something I was supposed to do for the ceremony?! Way to bring it up last minute, babe. So, I let her explain what I was supposed to do and what to say when to say it. It was lengthy, but I think I got it down, somewhat. I learned that she was the princess of the Land of the Stars, and her mother and father were the rulers of the land. I was surprised for sure, but I kinda suspected it from the decked out room she had.

During our time going over the ceremony, the sun was setting, turning the bright blue sky into streaks of pink and orange. The first star shown through the deep darkness that was the night, slowly followed by more stars. The sky was illuminated with more stars than I could count, seeming to light up the streets with its shimmering glow. I could hear people outside the home, milling about for the doors to open. We got up and changed into our attire, which was also part of the ceremony.

I was dressed in a shimmering dark blue tux, with the whitest undershirt I've ever seen. It was literally blinding to look at directly. I also had matching dress pants and tie. The only thing that was mine and conveyed any sense of my personality was my shoes: black leather Converse high tops. That was sure to get me noticed, probably in the bad way, but fuck them. This was me and I wanted to keep my sense of self around them.

Looking over at Sno, my jaw dropped. She was dressed in the same theme I was in: the night sky. She had on the same fabric, but it hugged her every curve, flowing out down her lower body. She wore sleeves that went up her arms and stopped at her shoulders. She also had a translucent shawl of the same color and sheen as her dress and sleeves. It just really accentuated her beauty tenfold.

As I was putting on the finishing touches, I felt her arms wrap around me, pulling me into a hug. I looked at her and smiled, turning around and hugging her back, kissing her lovingly. She looked deep into my eyes and said, "I really hope tonight goes well. I want to make a good impression on my family."

I chuckled softly, kissing her again. "Don't worry, baby. What happens, happens. Just enjoy the night. Besides, I'm here for you, okay?"

She calmed a little, but was still nervous. And she should be. I'm nervous as all get out. Fuck, I'm meeting her parents. I don't know what they look like or what their personality is. I just hope that they accept their daughter's choice of her mate.

At around sunset, we went out of her room and towards the dining hall. On the way there, I admired the décor of the house. Again, all of it reminded me of a mansion. Or a castle. Leaning towards castle now. The tapestries hanging on the walls probably depicted important events in her family's life. There was one that looked like a bloody battle with one standing on top, victorious from battle. Another was a bride and a groom exchanging rings and vows.

When we arrived at the doors, we waited for some time before they opened. What was inside was impressive, beautiful and a little intimidating.

It was a big dining hall. Big trees that almost touched the ceiling were all lined up on opposite ends of the hall, decorated like Christmas trees. Garlands hung around the ceiling, drooping low between each Christmas tree. The ornaments that were hung on each tree had a distinct theme. Some were for holidays, like Christmas or Halloween. Others were seasons, like summer and spring. On either side of us, people were seated in round tables that could seat about 20 people. There were hundreds that littered the area, probably thousands of people staring at the two of us. We walked arm in arm up towards the head table, which was on the opposite side of the doors where we entered. At the top were two figures that I knew instantly were her mother and father.

Her mother was where she got her beauty. Looking at her, she was an older version of my Sno. To me, she had an air of the supportive and sympathetic mother, wanting what's best for her child. The male that was Sno's father had a happy smile, his eyes brimming with happiness. I could tell he was a kind ruler who loved his daughter and truly cares for her. Even if he was the nicest guy on Earth, Sno was still his daughter and he needed to know what to make of me. I had to prove my worth to him, so I can get his approval of me and the relationship I have with Sno.

When we approached the steps leading up to the table, we stopped, kneeling in front of the two that were standing. I said my lines. "Please, O great king of the heavenly stars, would you let us dine with you tonight so we may be blessed by your words and company?"

I said them just the way she wanted me to, my voice reflecting humbleness upon seeing such a magnificent being that was her father. I waited for what seemed like hours before he said, in a strong and deep tone, "You may rise and dine by my side tonight."

We both got up and bowed before him, before moving up behind the table so that we could dine by his side. She was on her father's right side while I was at Sno's right. I pulled out her chair and pushed it in as she sat down, gracefully moving into mine before looking out to see everyone staring back at me. Some people were afraid of me, others were disapproving of the choice Sno made. I ignored them and waited for Sno's father to speak.

He raised his hands and spoke. "Now that the last of our guests have arrived, we can begin the feast!"

Bells were rung and the staff swarmed out, ready to serve out hot dishes and cold beverages to the hungry guests. While those at the tables got the same meal, up at our table, we had different and unique dishes. Sno's father had a slice of steak and a baked potato, filled with butter, cream cheese and bacon bits with a side of fresh vegetables of varying degree. Sno's mother had shrimp scampi with linguine and sliced yellow bell and red peppers, all topped with a creamy garlic sauce. Sno had a simple salad, dressed in ranch with all kinds of fruits and vegetables. Me, well, they didn't know what to make of me. So, they cooked up a combination of the three and gave that to me, as an offer of welcome.

There was the steak, but it also had a helping of pasta, looking like the shrimp scampi that Sno's mother has, and some of the salad that Sno was eating. It was a just a little bit of everything the family had to offer to make me welcomed. Well, this is turning out better than expected. And it was creative on their parts. I'll have to thank them later, when the feast was over.

Soon, it was dying down. The chatter that was going on during the feast was slowly ebbing away so they could hear the great king. He raised his glass and so did we, waiting for the end of feast toast.

"I am glad to see so many familiar faces here today, to witness the end of a new year and the beginning of another. I would also like to announce that my daughter is now taken by a mate." He gestures to us, Sno blushing and me smiling a friendly smile. "I can tell by the way they look at each other that they truly love one another," he looks to his wife and smiles, "just like I love my wife." He turns back to the crowd and raises his glass to everyone, to which everyone in the room did. "To love and happiness. May it continue to brighten this year and the years to come!" Everyone cheered and sipped their wine. I tasted mine, noticing the different flavors dancing on my tongue.

I looked at Sno, who was enjoying herself and looking at me, smiling all the while. It was time for the guests to come up to the table and thanks for the feast and good company. I shook hands with all sorts of people, even little kids who were no more than 5 or 6. Soon, we were getting to our last bit of people, and by the look on their faces, they were still wearing the disapproving looks from before. They said their thanks to the king and queen, kissed the hand of the fair princess, but when they came to me with my hand outstretched to them, they walked off. Like I wasn't even there.

_ Yep. Just like I figured. Even here, there's bound to be assholes._ It didn't faze me at all, just shook hands and thanked them for the wonderful time.

Soon, everyone was back in their chairs and looking at us. Sno's father announced the festival dance was going to happen with me and Sno. I have never danced in my life, but I got up and took Sno's hand, leading her down to the dancefloor. I turned her towards me and bowed before her as she bowed back, then we both turned and bowed to the king. As we turned toward each other, I grabbed her left hand with my right and placed my left on her waist. She placed her other hand on my neck as we waited for the music to chime in.

As soon as the first note was played, we were off. I didn't know where this surge of dancing power came from, but I ran with it. We twirled and danced while the song was playing in the background, all while we were staring deep into each other's eyes. I couldn't believe that we were dancing together like this. It was exhilarating.

The music stopped and so did we, pulling away to bow at the audience, who politely clapped, and then the king, before moving back to our spots and sat down, panting softly. We looked at each other and smiled softly, knowing that we had a blast.

Then, with one last toast, everyone started to get up and leave. The family and I moved to another room while the guests were moving out and back to our homes. When we came into a large study, I remained silent and sat down on a couch, waiting for anything that might come out of their mouths.

Sno sat next to me, her arm wrapped around mine and her head lying on my shoulder, looking up at me. I looked down at her and smiled, moving my arm to wrap around her waist and pulled her closer towards me. Her parents sat down opposite of us and looked at me. I sat up and looked back, waiting for them to speak up.

"So, how are you liking my kingdom thus far?" the king asked.

I smile. "It's great. Your house or castle is fantastic and honestly, I wanna see the rest of the kingdom."

He smiled at that and sighed in relief. "Good. I was kinda worried for a minute."

I was surprised. I raised my eyebrows and responded, "You? Surprised that I would like it here? Come on, sir, I could tell you ruled this kingdom with a kind heart and everyone loves you." I smile and wrap my arm tighter around Sno and pulled her closer, looking down at her lovingly. "And you raised a wonderful daughter. I only hope you approve of our relationship."

He smiled at me and reached to grasp at my shoulder, tightening it strongly, but in a friendly way. "I approve. I want my daughter to be happy and I can see that whenever she's with you. I've known her and she wasn't the happy-go-lucky girl you see before you. She has had a kinship with you since her childhood, probably around the same age as you were. She was snooping around my study, which was off limits, and was looking at the mirror I sometimes use to look at mortals. She looked at the last person in the mirror and was curious to know more. She would sneak in every day and watch this person live out each day with his family. As the person got older, so did her. She was getting feelings this person and told me everything, wanting to know what to do. I told her that, while it was wrong to sneak into my study, her feelings were natural and it would come to pass. But that wasn't the case. She experienced every emotion on the spectrum, feeling the same as the person in the mirror feels; the happiness, the pain, the sorrow, the heartache. She even told me at one point that she wanted to go down there and just be there for comfort, to know that there was someone who the person could count on.

"At one point, she said she loved this person. I could tell that she was telling the truth, so I went to see who it was that has stolen my daughter's heart without even meeting her. Who did I see?"

I could only guess. "Me."

He smiled and clasped my back hard. "Exactly! I saw you and wondered why my daughter would love someone like you. I too watched your life and got the sense of who you were as a person. You have a good and kind heart, always courteous to others and someone who can keep my daughter happy for years to come."

"Um, one question. Why do you have a mirror that can see into other people's lives?"

He chuckled, "I forgot to mention that. Well, you know when you wish upon a star sometimes?"

"Yeah." I have made a few wishes myself at times.

"That's our kingdom's job. To try and make the wishes of your world a reality. Of course we have a rules and regulations, but let's not discuss that. My mate and I have talked about it in the six months that Sno has lived with you and we both decided that you should live with us. Of course, you two would have your own wing that you can live in, but I do want you to live under my roof. I wanna keep an eye on you, so to speak."

This was a lot to take in. "Could I have some time to think about this first?"

"Sure," he said, not the in the least surprised, "take all the time you need, son."

I smiled and got up. He did too and looked at me with shining eyes. I reached out my hand and he gladly took it, shaking our hands gentlemanly.

I couldn't believe that I had to prove myself. He saw me almost all my life and he saw how I was, both good and bad, and he still wanted me around. I wanted to move in right then and there, but I had to let my parents know that I wasn't gonna see them again. After the festival is over and we go back, I wanna show Sno to my parents and let them know that I'm moving in with her and her family. I'm sure that there'll be arguing over me, but frankly, I don't give a shit about them. I'll miss my mom terribly, but it was time for me to move on.

When everyone left, so did we. I said goodbye to Sno's parents, the royal family, and walked down the hall with her, hand in hand. I just couldn't believe my luck. I was being myself and got the girl of my dreams. Real love story material.

We walked into her room and took off our clothes. I turned off the lights and curled up with Sno under the covers of her bed, snuggling close with her. I sighed out and kissed her deeply and passionately. "I love you, Sno." She giggled and kissed my cheek, looking deep into my eyes and smiling huge, "I love you, too... My loving prince."

I remembered her saying that to me six months ago, on the night we met. It made sense now. I thought it was just a heat of the moment nickname. Now, I could see that by being with her, I was a prince of this kingdom. I couldn't believe it. I really am the luckiest guy in the whole world. No one can honestly say they met the one that has been watching over them their whole life. While that might be creepy to some, it's sexy that she was the one and no one else.

I smiled and kissed her more, laying my head on the pillows, waiting for sleep to take me in its warm embrace. I felt her snuggle into my chest and looked down. I saw the angel wing necklace I got her on that shopping day that seemed so long ago. It clicked in my head why the necklace was familiar. It really was angel wings. Guess she really did earn her wings. Atta girl, Sno.

I chuckle softly to myself over that dumb reference and went to sleep, knowing good and well that Sno was, indeed, my angel sent from high above, to love me forever.

***

I woke up to the gentle nudging of my lover, Sno, who was up and hovering above me, watching me with great curiosity and joy. I smiled and pulled her down, snuggling into her. "Why were you watching me, love?" She smiled and cupped my cheek, "You're interesting when you sleep, baby."

"Really? How so?" I chuckled, wondering how I could be interesting when I drool all over the pillows. She giggled and said, "Well, you just look so peaceful when you sleep, even when you drool all over my pillows." To that, we laughed and got up to get dressed. After some playful taunting and general silliness, we went to the kitchen for some breakfast. While it looked like a gourmet kitchen and was filled to the brim with everything you could imagine, I got some cereal and ate in silence. She had scrambled eggs with toast and bacon. A standard meal for anyone. Not for me, though.

After breakfast, I wanted to see the kingdom. So, we got everything we needed for the day out and walked around the kingdom, exploring everything it had to offer. We first saw the richer side of the kingdom, all of the aristocrats and higher ups living together in social harmony. The houses were big and flaunty, showing people just how much money they had. Some had big houses that go up to four floors, with so many rooms that had no use; others had more cars than they know what to do with. It was gut wrenching to see all of them with boasting what they owned and mocking the "poor", which was the lower class. I really wanted to go up and deck them all out, but I was calmed down by Sno, hearing her say that she too wanted them to shut up about their bragging, but even if they did, they would go back to it anyways. I couldn't change people by force. No one could. People were who they wanted to be, no matter how obnoxious they were.

We then moved to the lower class, who were barely getting by at all over what they did. They worked long hours keeping this kingdom in tip-top shape. These guys were working behind the scenes to make sure the lives of the rich were not problematic. They were the ones who were kind, considerate and enjoyable to be around. They were my kind of people.

I learned from Sno that she has been down here multiple times throughout her childhood, just chatting and playing with the kids. I did too, despite not knowing any of their games. I was a quick learner and, after a few losses, I actually started to win some. We all laughed and had a good time down here. They wanted to go all out for my visit, me being the princess's mate and all, but I denied special treatment. I just wanted them to treat me normally.

We met up with a family that Sno liked. They met when she was on one of her visits down into town. A girl was in need of medical attention because she was bleeding from a severe cut on her arm, down to the bone, from playing on some sharp metal equipment near a construction site. She arrived and spotted the commotion and put on a tourniquet to stop the bleeding. She ran her all the way to the hospital across town, arriving within inches of her life ending. She was a hero to the family and was offered a meal to thank her. Soon, she started to come back to check on the little girl every now and then, who was doing okay, and was getting familiar around the neighborhood. She fully recovered and is attending high school now. Her father works hard at the plant, making sure that the town has power, and the mother works at home, taking care of her brothers and sisters.

Seeing them together reminded me of my family. We were never like this. We were in our own worlds. We kept to ourselves and if we ever stepped into another's world, we would yell at them to get them out of it. We were dysfunctional and always yelled at each other to make ourselves heard, whether it was to try and say something or just yell at someone when they were being bad. This family was what I wanted. They were happy with each other, always joked around and always got along.

After some playing with the kids and a nice lunch, with some laughter and story sharing, we took our leave, much to the kids' dismay. We told them that we'll be back and they beamed up at that. We said our goodbyes and walked down the road towards home, hand in hand.

We continued to explore, going out into the countryside a bit to see the flowing fields, the wind carrying across to make the rippling effect across the whole countryside. I just marveled at how big and expansive it all was. She looked at me with wonder and nuzzled against me, wrapping her arms around my waist.

"I think it's time to go back, dear." She moved away and grabbed my hand, pulling me along the dirt road that lead towards the town.

"Aww..." I was reluctant to leave, but she did have a point. I could see the sun going down on the horizon, the colors cascading all over the sky in a mixture of reds, oranges and yellows mixing with the blues of the sky, making one beautiful picture. I could stare at it until the sun went down, but Sno was dragging me towards the castle and I had to focus on getting there safely.

We got back to the castle and it was dinner time. Sno's parents were there and we walked in and sat down, waiting for the food. It was served to us a few minutes later, covered in those metal covers with the handles that you would sometimes see in movies about rich people. The food was excellent and we ate in silence. To tease her, I moved my foot next to her and started to rub up and down her calf. She looked at me with shock and then smiled, moving a foot towards my thigh and started to rub there, moving between my legs. I stopped right there, knowing she was going to win, but she didn't stop.

I excused myself from the table and moved to the bathroom, closing the door behind me. I turned on the faucet and splashed some water on my face, trying to calm myself down and keep my erection from growing. I looked into the mirror and saw my reflection, the same face I was used to. But, out of the corner of my eye, I saw something else. Something black.

I turned around and saw her again. The black jackal from my dreams. She smiled seductively and moved close to me, wrapping her arms around my neck and licking slowly up towards my ear, nibbling on the earlobe. "I'm glad to see you again, dear." She moves a hand down my chest, towards my pants, rubbing my crotch slowly. I slip out of her grasp and towards the opposite wall. "What do you want?" She giggled and stepped closer to me. "I want you. All to myself."

I kept moving around, trying to get away from her grasp. Her body was sexy, I'll give her that, but I didn't want the temptation. I wanted to get away from her but she kept coming towards me, wanting to touch me and do "things" with me. I got stuck in a corner and was trapped. She knew that and moved closer, her leg hiked up and around my waist, her arms around my neck. She pushed her chest to mine, her breasts squished between us. She smiled and kissed along my neck, moving up towards my cheek, then up to my lips.

When she got there, I started to squirm. She increased the hold she had on me, pinning my arms and legs together. She smiled again and kissed my lips passionately, her hand up in my hair. She started to grind against me slowly. I could feel herself getting wet and splattering her juices all over my pants. I tried very hard to get away, but her grip never relented. Her hand moved down my chest and towards my pants, getting the buttons loose and the zipper pulled down. Feeling her do that, I knew what she wanted. I was in full on panic mode, trying desperately to get away, but her iron grip still had a hold on me.

I could hear someone coming down the hall.

It was getting closer.

Her hand moved down my boxers and pulled out my hard dick, rubbing the tip against her wet folds.

I grunted and moved away, her grip never relenting.

She was still kissing me, her tongue licking around my lips, wanting to be inside.

I could hear the footsteps outside the door.

I could feel the tip pushing in and slowly feeling the folds envelope around my cock till they were fully inside.

I wanted to get away.

She started to move along my cock, going faster and faster.

I could hear a knock on the door, a voice speaking out through the wood.

"Chris? Are you okay in there?"

It was Sno.

She was moving faster on my dick, going so fast that I was getting close to releasing my seed.

I wanted out. I wanted to get away. I wanted-

The handle moved and clicked open. The door moved slowly outward and into the room.

I could see the hairs on Sno's muzzle coming in.

I released hard into the jackal's womb. She moaned softly, her walls milking more sperm.

The door opened more and I could see more of Sno's muzzle entering in. I could see her eyes as they cleared the door.

The door pushed all the way open.

Sno's mouth dropped.

The jackal sighed and nuzzled against my neck.

This was gonna get ugly.

***

Sno was crying and locked herself in her room. I was hammering outside to let me in so I could talk to her. The jackal disappeared long afterword, winking at Sno before disappearing in a cloud of black smoke, leaving me with my pants down and my cock covered in cum.

Sno was majorly upset, I could tell by her eyes before she ran out and towards her room, locking the door and just started to bawl her eyes out.

I pounded again and again, yelling at her to open up and let me talk to her. She wouldn't have it. She kept telling me to go away, to leave her alone. I wouldn't have that. I heard her get up and unlocked the door, only opening it enough to see her face. She was angry, tears streaming down her face and matting her fur. She looked at me with cold eyes and said, "Get out of here. Go home. Get away from me."

I looked at her and said, "No. I'm not going anywhere. Not until I can talk to you about what happened."

She scoffed it off and looked at me. "What's there to discuss? You fucked another woman. And I could tell you enjoyed it cause you filled that cunt up with your cum." I have never heard her cuss, so it was a real jaw dropper when she did. I have never seen her angry, too, so this was new for me. I tried to interject, but she cut me off. "Don't bother. I know what you're going to say. 'It wasn't my fault. She came onto me and fucked me. I was a victim.' Save it."

"But it was true!! I WAS a victim! Please, Sno, believe me!" I was pleading with her. I wanted her to see that I wasn't lying. But she moved a hand to up between us. "Save it. Go away."

"Sno, please..."

She looked at me dead in the eyes, shining wet with new tears, and said, "I hate you."

She slammed the door in my face and locked it back up. I stood there, defeated. I gave up and went towards the door, leading out to the castle grounds, and walked outside. I continued to walk towards the rich district. I walked towards the poor district, walking by the little girl's house we were at later in the day. When we were both happy to be with each other. I continued to walk past that, walking towards the country side, looking up towards the sky to see the shining stars twinkling in the night sky. I sighed and continued to walk.

I continued to walk down that dirt road to nowhere.

Walking. Without Sno.

Walking alone once again.

Alone.
