#5 of Lyre City

Two couples enjoy a retreat in the mountains. Only certain members have a history with members of the other, and that history comes back.


Itzel squeezed out the last bit of treatment from the bottle into the already foaming tub recessed into the floor of the cabin.

The door opened and shut. The oncilla turned to see Adou, a red panda male, leaning against the door. "I didn't think you'd be done with Jonas already," he said.

"Couldn't pluck them off fast enough for him. Now he's bathing himself again in our room and he's dumped half the bottle of dip in. Damn cityfolk."

"Heh, tell me about it. Ai was squirming every tick I pulled off of her, like I was amputating a limb or something."

"Bottle's empty." Itzel shook the small thing.

"Damn, I'll have to call the resort desk and order some more. Is there anything else we need?"

"You don't need to. You can join me, if you want."

Adou stared at her. "That would be a bit... odd."

"A little, but it's not like we haven't seen one another naked before. Besides, I'll probably need your help pulling ticks later. Not like I can trust Jonas to get them all." She let the grey robe she wore fall to the ground.

She saw Adou swallow nervously as he took in the sight of her spotted body. She turned around and waved her tail, giving him an intermittant view of her backside.

"Do you have to tease me like that?"

She giggled, "You perv, you haven't changed a bit." She stepped down into the soapy water. "Ah, come on in, it's perfect."

Adou slowly took off his t-shirt. He unbuttoned his jean shorts and pulled them down. He appeared to think a bit, then removed his boxers. He stepped up to the water's edge.

Itzel looked at the pink tip poking out of his sheath. She glanced up and smirked at the embarrased panda. She tapped the water, "Come on, silly."

Adou smiled and slipped down into the nice warm water. "Ah, it is perfect."

"You doubted me?"

"Never." They looked out over the lush foresty landscape. The cabin resort had perfectly designed this room to give bathers a magnificent view of the woodland. It was what made this ritual one of Adou and Itzel's favorite things about coming to these cabins when they had been married.

Adou closed his eyes, sitting back in the soapy water.

"One." Itzel said.

Adou's eyes shot open and he leaned forward. "Two," he added.

He closed his eyes and placed his paw behind the cat's head as she did the same to him. "Three!" they shouted as they shoved one another under. Itzel held her head down feeling the warm water over her head. She stayed down until -he couldn't hold his breath any longer, then shot her head up.

She snorted. Adou came up a split second later. "I've got some in my nose!" she cried.

He laughed at her.

She snorted more. "It's not funny!"

"Yes it is."

She slapped him. They laughed and then settled back against the wall of the tub.

"We need a bottle of bubbly for this," she said.

"I think that would be pushing things a bit too far," he said, unable to hide the disappointed tone in his voice.

"Probably," she sighed, disappointed as well.

They sat silent for a while. "Lots of the little buggers this year," Itzel commented.

Adou looked down at the many black carcasses floating away from their bodies. "Yeah."

She slid closer to him, and leaned her head on his shoulder. He placed his head on hers. "What happened to us?" he asked her, not for the first time.

"We were young and naive. We made stupid mistakes. We made assumptions about one another. We didn't talk honestly with one another about our problems," she sighed. "Knowing then what we know now, we could have easily worked them out." She sighed again, "Not that I regret Jonas; much less Axel. And I hope you don't regret Ai or Chloe."

"I don't," he added quickly.

"But I, I don't know, I'm just nostalgic, I guess. I wish I could have had both lives."

He kissed her on her head, and they looked out over the expanse in silence.

The polar bear dressed in a black bath robe walked to the fridge of the kitchen area, opened it and grabbed out a beer.

"Get me one, too," Ai said from the living room area.

He pulled out a second, opened both, and walked toward the sofa of the den area. He handed a beer to the marbled cat in the blue robe seated there. She was watching a crime drama on the television over the fireplace. Jonas sat down next to her.

"Six fucking hours," he said.

"You're telling me," Ai said.

"I mean I can understand a nice long walk along the riverfront in the city. There you've got the beautiful boats and beaches to look at. Here it's a tree, another tree, another tree, poison ivy, more trees, some more trees, some rocks. Oh, hey, a pretty waterfall that almost makes walking out this damn far worth it, nah, we don't want to waste time looking at that, we've got more trees to look at."

Ai laughed.

"All while lugging a damn picnic basket and blankets the whole way. 'Jonas is a big ole bear, he can carry it.' Hello, polar bear. Not in a thousand fucking degree heat.

"It's just a bit further."

"Yeah, exactly. See, if you do this in the city, you can stop at a nice cafe or beachside restaurant when you're hungry. And if you want to walk in one direction for three hours, fine, you can just hop a bus back. But three hours out means three hours back in the middle of fucking nowhere."

Ai was cracking up. "Oh, tell me about it. I had to piss like a racehorse when we finally made it back. 'Just go in the bushes, Itzel does it.' Itzel is fucking nuts."

"Hey, now, she is my wife."

"Sorry. But at least guys have it easy. You just whip it out and go. And then there's all these damn parasites."

"Yeah, 'oh, that's the best part. Getting to pick them off your lover.' We're not monkeys. Those damn things are full of diseases."

"Tell me about it. 'Oh, look, a squirrel. Maybe it'll bite me and give me rabies and I'll get to spend weeks in the hospital having antivirals pumped into me.'"

"Don't give them ideas."

They laughed. "I guess it's not too bad. Itzel does seem to like it. I guess being where you don't have hundreds of other people screaming around you has its advantages."

Ai nodded, "Still my idea of a resort vacation involves golf, swimming, movies, water park and amusement park attractions. Not hours hiking in the hot sun before hours of cleaning up after the hike in the hot sun."

They stayed quiet for a while. "So, how are things with you and Adou?" Jonah asked.

"Pretty good. He's a sweetheart, you know. Always bringing me flowers or taking me on romantic dinners. He completely spoils me rotten. Our daughter is in for a world of trouble," she laughed. "How about you two?"

"Couldn't complain if I wanted to."

"Aww, come on, no juicy dirt?"

"No."

"Anything you want to watch?"

"This is fine, I like this show."

***

Itzel lay on the massage table they usurped for the purpose of removing ticks from one another. Adou ran his fingers gently through her fur until he came across a small bump on her lower back. Despite their clothing the ticks had managed to get everywhere this year.

He picked up the tweezers and grasped the tick at the point it met her skin. He popped it out. Itzel squeaked.

"Sorry."

"Buggers in deep this year?"

"Yeah, got bit of blood here."

Adou swabbed some alchohol over the wound. "Ow..." it must have been near a nerve.

"You okay?" Adou stroked her flank to soothe her.

"Yes. Nothing another sip won't fix," she picked up the glass of bubbly from the small table in front of her and did as she suggested. "Don't understand how Jonas can turn this stuff down."

"Yeah, he just said 'you can have it,' when I asked about taking the bottle from the fridge. I don't think he got the romantic undertones."

"Ha ha. Ow," as Adou popped out another tick.

"Sorry."

"'salright. Yeah, he's beer beer beer. Not even good beer, always the cheap mass produced swill."

"Ai isn't overly fond of the stuff either. Get her in the hot tub with a bottle and she enjoys the romanticism of it all. But you can tell she doesn't care for the taste."

"Hmm," Itzel remarked. That had been a ritual of theirs. She let it go, though, it's not like she could complain. "What else doesn't she care for the taste of?

"Oh, this guy looks like he's in real deep. Probably going to smart."

"Just remember what you do to me I do to you." Itzel barely felt it as Adou popped out the tick. "That's what I thought."

"You're a tease, Itchy."

The oncilla let out a purr. He hadn't called her that since a year before their divorce.

"And then there's all the health food crap he's been feeding me."

"You too, huh."

"Yeah, I mean some of it is good. And I guess it is helping me live a longer and fuller life. But sometimes a girl just wants a big 'ole steak. Baked potato dripping with butter and sour cream. Glass of red wine."

"Mmm, you're going to make me cum."

"Not that that takes much. Yow! Hey, now."

"That was only a couple of times."

"I'm sorry. I was just teasing you."

He stroked her softly again. She purred and took a sip of wine.

"That's all of your back." He had already done her arms, legs, and tail, with those being the most likely places for the insects.

That left one region to check. Itzel looked back to see him contemplating. "It's okay, that end doesn't bite."

"Sorry, just a bit inappropriate, don't you think?!

"Well, I'm not about to trust Jonas to get any that might be down there, and it'd be hard for me to do myself. Just check quick."

Adou walked to the door and locked it to avoid any comedic interruptions.

Itzel pulled off her towel and spread her legs wide as his back was turned. She heard him swallow when he turned back around. She giggled. "It'll only take a moment," she said.

She heard him step over to her. She felt him run his hands across her butt. Then between her legs, and around her opening.

"Um, Itzel. Remember that little break you took in the bushes?"

"How bad?"

"Bad."

"Ohh," she moaned at the thought of the impending pain from her poor nether regions, "I think I'm going to need another bottle of bubbly."

***

Jonas and Ai breathed a sigh of relief when Adou left the room carrying the bottle. They were thankful that he hadn't overheard their conversation when he entered the room.

"So, where were we?" Jonas asked.

"Me catching Adou masturbating last week."

"Ah, yeah," he smiled.

"He was so cute and embarassed. I of course walked up and lent him a paw."

"You've been married for a year and a half now."

"I know, he's silly. Ever catch Itzel?"

"Heh, a few times. She's probably worse than her ex, though. She thinks she's insulting me by saying she isn't satisfied. She's even said 'I'm sorry,' a couple of times."

"You help her out though,"

"Of course. Hell, after the pawing I usually give her you'd think she'd start trying to get caught."

"Heh, I know when we were dating I couldn't get you to keep your paws off when you caught me. I mean a girl just wants to get herself off some time."

"Well you were just fun to tease like that."

They sat quietly for a bit, watching the television. "So," Jonas began, "Adou ever catch you?"

"Heh heh, yeah, he just apologized and backed out of the room. So it's pretty much the opposite of you. He can't take a hint when I do want an extra paw," she laughed. "Of course he's asked me later if I'm not satisfied. I have to explain that, no, I'm very satisfied with him I just enjoy that kind of fun."

"Itzel's almost the same way. The first time she caught me after we were married, she just asked softly if she could watch. Of course I let her. But any time since, and I have tried to get her to catch me, she's the same as Adou. It's I'm sorry and out of the room as fast as if my dick was a cobra coming after her."

"I could see that mistake."

"Yeah, but she knows better."

They laughed. "It's no wonder they got married."

"Or divorced. Both probably wanted sex but were too embarrased to ask."

Silence again, save the sound of the television.

"So, what was your best night with Itzel? After you were married?"

"Hmm, probably our honeymoon, but that one's just for us so I'm not telling you. But second best, well it wasn't night, but we kind of chartered a plane for our first anniversary just to join the mile high club."

"Oh-ho-ho. You're lucky the pilate didn't get distracted and crash the plane."

"What a way to go, though. Now, you and Adou?"

"It's sappy, but it was the night after we brought Chloe home. I think holding her in his arms after she was born was when he finally let Itzel go. When he accepted his life with me and the new life in his hands as his future. That night he just made love to me so tenderly, it was wonderful."

The marbled cat seemed to glow to the polar bear. "Took him that long?"

"He was worth waiting for."

***

There was one left. Itzel's breathing was heavy. Liquid dripped from her pussy down onto the cushion of the table. Her clit was fully engorged.

And removing the last tick would do her no favors.

Adou had to steel himself. He had been inhaling the scent of her arousal for so long now. His cock felt harder than diamond as it poked through his robe. It was all he could do to keep himself from mounting and fucking the cat.

He had to steady himself. He reached down and pulled the cat's labia aside. He pushed the fur out of the way, the tick was buried right next to her leg. He brought the tweezers in, hand shaking. He put the tweezers around the thing's head, squeezed, and popped it out.

He sighed and dropped the thing into the jar with the rest.

"All of them," he panted.

"Adou..." her voice pleaded.

It was more than just the attention to her genetalia that had her this horny. It was the whole ritual. When they had done this when they were married it was sexual on top of everything else. Niether had ever cum less than thrice before leaving the flea dip. During this part? Once it had literally taken them all night, and the ticks had been light that year.

Even the gentle caresses Adou gave her were meant to be sensual as well as soothing. He had forgotten that.

These feelings had been coming up for both of them throughout the activity, but they had pushed them back down. Now there was no ignoring them.

And it was a practical problem, too. They could go toJonas and Ai to take care of their current state-. But that would lead them to wonder why the two were in this state in the first place. It would lead to distrust. They certainly wouldn't be allowed to finish removing ticks on one another. Adou still had to finish Itzel's belly as well as be taken care of himself. Ai and Jonas had already shown their ineptness at the task, they couldn't be trusted to finish it right. And that would just be dangerous.

Adou put his paws on Itzel's hips and guided her up into a kneeling position. He licked his lips as he again put his face near her nether regions, then began to lick.

His tongue slipped into her with ease, and she was just delicious to taste. She had been quite bitter when they had been married, but now she had a sweetness to her as well. It was a most unique and wonderful flavor. That health food must have been good for something after all.

He lapped at her inner walls. He didn't go straight for the kill, no. She moaned. "Shh," Adou cautioned. They couldn't let the others hear. She quieted down, but pressed her head down against the table. She began to push her hindquarters against Adou's muzzle, almost trying to hump his face. More liquid flowed from her in those few seconds then had done so in the the half hour of tick removing.

He removed his tongue from within her and began licking her clit. She sighed at the relief to come. She bucked her hips slowly as he licked at her. Adou knew she thought relief was coming. He brought her to the brink, he always knew when she was about to cum, then left her clit to again lap at her insides.

She groaned in frustration. He felt her body tense. He imagined her claws digging into the padding of the massage table. He knew she'd love it all the more for having to wait. He licked at her insides until it became clear she wouldn't be able to keep herself quiet much longer.

He pulled out and lapped at her clit again, more vigourously than before. She moaned. As soon as she reached the point of no return he put his lips around her clit and sucked hard. She cried as she came. Adou knew it wasn't an ejaculation, but for the amount of liquid that poured from her puss down over his muzzle it was hard to tell.

She came for a good thirty seconds before collapsing down onto the table. Adou ran and caught her before she rolled off the side.

She lay their silent for a minute, Adou stroked her head. Slowly she pulled herself up, and with Adou's help sat on the side of the table. "That was awesome," she said, giggling.

"Glad to hear it."

She sat there for a few minutes, giddy. Then she looked down. Adou realised she was staring at his erection as it poked through the robe.

Silently, she slid off the table and onto her knees. She wrapped her paw around his member, then slipped her mouth over it.

"Ohh...," Adou moaned.

***

Jonas pulled at his large black erection vigorously, "and... and then?"

"He came again..." she panted as she fingered the spot between her legs. "All over my chest. Huge load. I came just moments later. It was so hot."

"You're such a cum-slut..."

"I know...,"

"One time..., Itzel and I..., sixty-nining. She stopped sucking and started pawing me and licking at the same time. I couldn't even keep at her, ended up cumming in seconds. Then..., she sat up over me. Said my punishment for losing. She stuck her fingers in herself and she came so much I thought I'd drown..."

"Ohh," Ai worked harder at herself.

She watched the bear go over the edge with that last thought, cum squirting from his black member over leg and onto the floor.

Ai had to finish herself, she was so close. She brought her feet up on the couch, spread her knees wide and came. She heard the drops pouring down on the floor. She panted as she came down.

It had been so long since the two had done this, bringing one another to orgasm with tales of their sexual conquests. Not since Jonas had started seeing Itzel. And they hadn't done so in person since they had stopped dating years ago.

Ai stood up. She dropped her robe to the ground and stood nude in front of the bear. There was another pleasure she had to know again. "Eat me."

The bear slid to the ground, leaned forward, and began to oblige her without a moment's hesitation.

She was driven to heights of pleasure again immidiately. Tears fell from her eyes and onto the bear's head. She put her paw on the back of his head and pushed him into her.

He was so sloppy, tongue washing over everything. Slobbering all over her. Pleasure wise Jonas' technique was a far cry from the surgical precision of Adou's tongue. He wasn't even as good as Conner when Conner could have been buggered to do this.

But she didn't care. The fact that it was her old friend doing this to her his way mattered in ways more than just pure pleasure could ever manage alone. She didn't even try to prolong it, didn't even hold back. She just wanted to cum to his tongue, and she let herself.

She heard the bear swallow again and again as she came. She knew she was generally juicy when she came, but her own copius ammounts of liquid were probably trivial to the ammount of bear saliva now between her legs.

The marbled cat dropped to her knees and took the bears member in her own paw. She kissed his muzzle again and again as she stroked him. About thirty minutes was the shortest recovery time Ai had ever witnessed in Jonas, which made it an amazing feat when he began to cum again so quickly.

It was a reduced load, only four main squirts coating the cat's belly before the rest dripped down onto the floor. But it was immensly wonderful, all the same.

She kissed him again and again.

"We should get cleaned up," he said.

***

Adou and Itzel finished their treatment of one another.?

After the ticks were gone they showered together, dried, and combed one another out. Sex wise they each had come twice more to the other.

"We shouldn't have done that." Itzel said.

"No, we shouldn't have."

"I'm glad we did, though."

"Me too."

She stepped up to him, and they put their arms on one another's sides. They looked into one another's eyes, tears in each.

They wanted to kiss one another on the lips, but that would have been an act of infedelity worse than the sexual activities they had engaged in.

Adou bent over and kissed Itzel's cheek. And Itzel returned the favor. They reluctantly broke their hold, then headed out toward the living room.

***

Ai sat crying. Jonas patted her.

"Damn it, why did we do that?" she cried. "How could I do that to him?"

The bear thought for a moment. "We should tell them. Apologize. It'll be bad but at least it'll be honest."

"I can't do that! Have Adou learn that both his wives cheated on him with the same guy! And Itzel? What would she do to me after what I did to her?

"Oh, no, I can't tell him this. I can't even believe I... When I'm..."

"When you're what?"

She looked at him horrified. "Oh, Oh!" he cried, realizing.

"I haven't even told him yet. I was hoping for a nice romantic evening alone. But now it's all ruined."

"Look, it's okay. Nothing's ruined. Just breathe deep, okay." She started to calm down. "It was a one time thing. One stupid mistake of two old friends letting their emotions get the better of them. Itzel and Adou don't have to know. We don't ever mention it, we don't ever hint toward it, and we certainly don't do it again. Okay?"

She sniffed, "Okay."

***

That night four apologies were said. Two apologies for dragging their lovers someplace they didn't want to go, two apologies for not trying harder to take an interest in their lovers' favorite activity. But secretly it was something else each apologized for.

That night two couples retreated to their spacious bedrooms in the large rented cabin. The two couples made love as tenderly as possible. Each of the four doing their best to show their mate they loved them.

But as each made love to their spouse, whenever they closed their eyes, they imagined the touch of another.
