#2 of Winter's Worth

Just a little New Year Surprise...

I put the * things in to hold some space between different "scenes and days."

Sorry for the long wait! But I don't know if I want to write a Part VI. (It would essentially be a repeat of II, and there are other lengthy ideas that have most of my attention already) and I don't have any clear ideas for a part VIII to lead into. Besides, forcing yourself to write when your heart isn't into it doesn't make it very fun.

As always, fave, vote, or comment, if you wish.


The delightful smell of breakfast being cooked floated around the cabin home from the kitchen. It was a quiet morning with only the last sounds of cooking starting to die down. Two sausages were rolled onto a plate already filled with scrambled eggs and a slab of buttered toast. Johann turned the burner off and took a seat at the kitchen table where silverware was already in place.

"Mm, just right." He said biting into the meat first. Living alone for a few years taught him to cook to perfection, and it was always worth it.

"Morning again." Silvia said by the hallway.

"Morning," he smiled. The wolf stretched before trotting up to him, giving his cheek a sweet brush with her facial fur. "Good luck on your hunt," he said giving her a kiss. Silvia brushed her muzzle against his face before licking the faint taste of sausage from her lips.

"Mm, thank you." The floor clacked as her claws walked over the hard surface. The door was opened and then pulled shut before she bounded down the porch steps outside. Johann didn't waste time finishing breakfast and cleaned up his plate only to hear the doorbell ring.

'Silvia doesn't use the front door.' Johann hurried over hoping nothing was wrong. Opening the door, he found his dad standing outside. "Woah what are doing here dad?" Johann went over to give his old man a hug. Ulrich hugged his son back able to detect an earthy scent on him.

"Just stopping by for a visit, where's the lady of the house?" He asked noticing the room was void of one giant canine as Johann let him in.

"Silvia just left to catch something and enjoy the last bit of cool weather before it warms up permanently tomorrow.

"Women are always on the move," he chuckled.

"So where is mom at? Did she not want to come over?" Johann asked feeling a tad dejected from his mother's attitude towards Silvia.

"No Jeanette went to her aunt's place because she wasn't feeling very well, then I felt bored at home so I decided to visit with you and Silvia till the afternoon."

"Guess both of us will be waiting for Silvia then," Johann mused offering his dad a seat in the living room. It was nice having company over once in a while, especially if it was company that understood who you were mated to and lived with. "So is mom still upset at me?" He asked making himself comfortable on the couch as his dad plopped down on a single chair.

"It should pass eventually." He scratched his head not too sure with himself. "She's your mother and you'll always be her son."

"Now I feel kind of bad for putting Silvia on the phone whenever mom started arguing about her." Johann said making his dad laugh.

"I never believed her when she told me that Silvia started talking to her! That's hilarious." His laughter began dying down. "So I take it you and Silvia are enjoying outside more with the warmer weather?"

"Spring is more bearable for me, but I don't think it has affected her as much." He grinned. Silvia was covered in soft fur from ears to tail tip that acted like a fluffy coat that adjusted to each season.

"I did notice a clump of fur hung in a bush outside. I'm surprised you haven't stuffed these cushions full of her fur." Ulrich pulled one from behind his back to fluff.

"I do brush her a lot more now. It was a big wake up call when she started shedding in bed. I had a fine layer of fur stuck to my entire body every morning."

"You two actually sleep together? I remember when you told us about the whole saved in her den thing, but there in the master bedroom?"

"She's very clingy when it comes to sleeping together among other things." Johann's cheeks reddened subtly.

"How do you not overheat? She'd be a fluffy furnace of fur. Especially if you two are glued together at night."

"Her spring coat is much more airy than her winter coat. My wolf is toasty warm while it snows outside, and just warm enough when the flowers are blooming." Johann explained in a poetic tone.

"You're probably the only human to use the word wolf and flower in the same sentence." His dad remarked wittily making Johann shake his head.

Silvia climbed up the back porch stairs having been gone from home for nearly an hour and a half. It took a while, but she managed to take down an elusive doe around the base of the mountain. The she wolf came inside shaking her coat void of a few leaves before she closed the door behind her.

"Sorry I took a while Johann, but sunning outside now that it's becoming warmer-" she stopped entering the living room to see Ulrich sitting across from Johann. Silvia hopped over to the friendly company that seldom came by to visit. "Hello!" Silvia cheerily said rubbing her muzzle across his face. Ulrich hugged her warmly doing his best to keep his mouth shut so fur wouldn't stick to his lips.

"Hello little furry ball of sunshine," he laughed giving her a pet.

"Silvia you shouldn't forget to wipe your mouth clean after a kill," Johann said pointing to her red stained lip.

"Don't worry I got it," She said with a swipe of her tongue. The wolf hopped over and joined Johann on the couch laying down. He hung an arm over her neck making his dad chuckle at the strange couple.

"So Silvia, do you take good care of Johann for me? He's only a young man, not as strong as a wolf you know." Ulrich said with an amused twinkle in his eye making his son's eyes roll.

"Of course. He doesn't leave my sight outside." She replied brushing a cheek against him, making a smile return once more on her mate's face.

"Do you have him interested in hunting yet? I could never get him into it when he was little."

"I'm sure I can persuade him to join me more often." Her head fit neatly under his chin with her two grey ears poking up beside his cheeks.

"I can tell you when I tried taking him fishing with me and a few friends when he was six. Clumsy little Johann fell into the lake we fished at."

"No embarrassing stories dad." Johann said detecting a familiar twinkle from his father's eye.

"Oh that reminds me when you ran away from home naked!" Ulrich interrupted himself with a snorting laugh.

"Running away without clothes?" Silvia grinned in amusement.

"I was just a baby." Johann tried defending himself through one of his dad's laughs.

"He just learned how to run, and one day he made it to the neighbor's porch and rang the door bell. You said, 'Ha ha hi,' before running back to our front yard where I was." Even Johann laughed at that.

"Don't you have any other family members like siblings?"

"I'm an only child." He shook his head. "Mom and dad thought I was a bit of work by myself."

"Just one?" She asked with a tilted head. "I thought you had at least one sibling. Wolves normally have a few at a time."

"One kid was enough for me. I had them cut the land lines and bury the trench." Ulrich said chuckling. Silvia cocked her head in the other direction confused.

"What is he talking about Johann?"

"I'll... Tell you later." He thought wondering how to explain a medical procedure to her.

"It's already passed eleven thirty." Ulrich observed the clock with a frown.

"Something up?" Johann asked as his dad stood up. Ulrich made a worried face before exhaling a sigh of relief.

"For a second there I thought my back was thrown out."

"You're not that old dad."

"I am because my son is all grown up and practically married. One day you were wearing diapers, now you're practically wearing a fur coat." Silvia chuckled bumping her head under Johann's chin. "Now where did I put my keys?"

"Aren't you at least going to stay for lunch dad?" Silvia sat up allowing Johann to stand.

"I wouldn't mind but your mother will be back home by then and think I went to a bar or something stupid if I'm not back."

"Strange how I can't see someone your age going to a bar to mess around." Johann made his dad laugh.

"Yeah, but she'll be upset since I didn't let her know first." Silvia patiently listened to them talk. She didn't understand what a bar was, or why it would cause trouble for Ulrich. "Do you mind if I talk to Johann in private Silvia?"

"Not at all." The she wolf relaxed on the couch as the pair walked down the hall into an adjacent room.

"What would you not want her to hear?" Johann asked his dad. The she wolf definitely wouldn't tell someone else.

"Hey, it's just advice from your old man.

"Ok. I'm listening." He held his arms behind his back.

"Son I know you're into wolves and that, but," his voice dropped to a mere whisper, "Sylvia looks fatter than I remember. I think you're making her lazy by staying in the house too much. Maybe the two of you could go outside and camp or something." Johann was about to object, but it was true in a way. Silvia did look a little bigger and a vacation outside would help, not to mention be a ton of fun.

"That's actually not a bad idea, even for you. But I don't think she minds weighing a little more than usual."

"All women are sensitive about weight Johann. They'll whine about it for life if you ever hesitate to call them thin."

"Dad, she's a wolf." He tried pointing out as Ulrich's eyes narrowed with seriousness.

"All women Johann. All of them. Just think over my advice." He then turned back into his more laid back self. "Alright, let me grab my keys and say goodbye to you and your beloved, then I'll be off." He walked back into the living room where Silvia was waiting, soon followed by Johann. "Sorry to cut this short SIlvia, but I have to leave."

"Don't worry, you'll come back eventually." Johann grinned getting his dad's keys for him.

"Bye sweetheart." Ulrich hugged Silvia closely.

"It was good to have you visit." She gingerly brushed her muzzle against his cheek. Johann and Silvia then walked him outside where Ulrich hurried to his truck and started the ignition.

"Have a safe trip home dad!"

"Bye!" Silvia barked. Ulrich waved before pulling out of the driveway and down the gravel road. "So what did he mean about land trenches?" She asked trotting inside with Johann.

"Eh. It's a medical procedure so he can't make a woman pregnant again."

"He's made multiple women pregnant before?!" Silvia said surprised.

"No, no, no. Just so my mom doesn't become pregnant again. It happened a long time ago." He couldn't help but inwardly laugh. Imagining his dad trying to hit on any lady would've been impossible. "A doctor does a little cutting, the man is sore for a week, and then he continues life."

"Ouch. Cutting?"

"Yeah, but nothing looks different down there I think."

"You better not have that done." She said sternly walking beside him to the kitchen.

"Not a chance." He confidently replied petting her back. "Now let's talk about what we're cooking instead of cutting."

Silvia sat by the other end of the table as Johann ate. She couldn't place the look he gave while eating, it was like he had a surprise to hide.

"Johann I didn't think something leftover in the fridge could taste that good." Silvia sniffed the air knowing that it didn't compare to the steak he occasionally made, or any other meaty treat.

"No, it's not the food." He replied setting the fork down. "I want to ask you something." The gleam in his eyes caught her off guard.

"I'm listening." Her ears perched forward.

"Ok... Would you like to take a vacation out in your den for a few days? It's starting to stay warm and even I have my limits remaining cooped up inside." Her body perked up excitedly.

"Really?"

"If you want to."

"Of course. That would be great!" The she wolf said with enthusiasm wagging her tail. Johann couldn't help but chuckle as she practically bounced around to his seat. A bunch of kisses were eagerly planted onto his cheek.

"Ok ok! You don't need to smother me!" He laughed as she wagged her tail happily.

Johann rolled up the red blanket at the end of their bed before carrying the large thing to the porch door where a ready backpack was sitting. 'That should be everything.' He gave a satisfied nod before looking outside. Silvia was eagerly waiting for him out on the back porch, a smile happily imprinted on her grey muzzle. She noticed him watching her and barked excitedly. Not wasting time, Johann gathered the two items and embarked outside.

"For a moment I thought I would have to drag you out here myself." Silvia quickly followed him down the porch steps.

"That was a good incentive for me to hurry up and not waste time." He replied with a smile, enjoying the calm weather. It was the early afternoon and the air was warm, yet cool compared to the summer where a strong breeze could chill exposed skin.

"That's so much stuff to bring Johann." She led him into one of the paths that connected to the house.

"Other than the blanket I don't have a fur coat to wear every day, so a few clothes were needed."

"I hope you only mean for outside the den." She rounded a large oak tree. He only smiled following her deeper into the forest as the trees quickly became more familiar to him despite all the new greenery. A stump acted as a calling card to how close they were. "Almost there." Silvia said excitedly running speedily ahead only to pause and wait for Johann.

"You're acting like it's going to disappear."

"I'm just a little giddy, that's all." She said continuing to lead him along the pathway. Another minute of walking and they finally came within sight of the den, or at least the top part of it. Johann was glad that neither of them would be falling into the den as he did during the winter. The mouth of the earthen home greeted them with a few fond memories.

"So many good things to recall about the den." Johann remembered when Silvia first rescued him.

"You're telling me." She heartily replied. He tossed the blanket down the burrowed hole along with the small backpack, hearing them thud against the ground below. Silvia brushed by Johann into the den, and he crawled down after her. "No snakes or pests."

"That's good to hear," Johann said reaching the bottom. Sleeping where a snake might have been wouldn't go very well for the night. He tossed the light backpack over against the wall as Silvia thumped down to her side.

"Home away from home." The wolf stated happily rolling on the ground. Johann chuckled at how much of a wolf she acted like instead a person despite her speech.

"We need to do some redecorating in our home away from home," He said looking over at the same old pile of leaves in the corner. The den did look dustier than he last remembered, and not because the floor and walls were made out of dirt. The lack of usage just brought a dull look to the formally mysterious underground home.

"You're right. We should replace the leaves before we put the blanket over them unless we want to get sick." Johann gathered the old leaves and removed them from the den. Silvia then told him where to get new fresher ones to bring back while she did her best to "dust" the floor, and clean out cobwebs with her tail. Pretty soon he had a new pile in the den and unrolled the red blanket on top to recreate their simple bed.

"What's all that for?" Sylvia looked over to the small pile of evergreen branches he had propped up against a wall.

"Kind of an air fresher. The den feels stale and unused." Johann fumbled with his backpack.

"We'll be using it, don't worry about that." She grinned at him. The human then unpacked what he had brought along for the trip. It wasn't very much, but he didn't need a lot anyway. He had carried a few changes of clothes along with an extra blanket among other necessities. "You didn't pack very much food," Silvia commented seeing his few snack items.

"Well I remember a certain she wolf who promised to never hear me go hungry, or did I hear wrong?" Johann asked looking up at her with a pleasant grin.

"I think you heard correctly," she smiled swiping her tongue over her lip. A growl emanating from Johann's stomach made her smile widen. "And I think I'm hearing you now."

"I ate lightly since the den is about a mile walk from our home."

"Well then how about a lunch specially made for you?" She laid down on her side like any canine would with her underbelly exposed.

"If you insist." He laid down beside her.

"I greatly insist." She watched him with anticipation while he searched through the fluff for one of her large teats. Johann felt a bump and immediately cleared the grey fur that surrounded it. The she wolf above sighed happily as he latched onto her. The pink fleshy spout yielded plenty for his hungering lips as he fed. Silvia wished he would eat longer, but her human didn't want to stuff himself and he soon finished. Feeling her fur being patted back into place, Silvia stood up and gave a stretch. "I'm going out to check the furthest parts of our territory into the forest, so I'll be back before the sun goes to rest." That was a lot of distance to cover in three hours, but doable for the large canine.

"Alright. I'll probably just look around outside the den for a while and finish cleaning up." With that, Silvia left him to his own devices. Johann immediately organized what little was left to be done, but found himself without much to do. Looking up towards the entrance however made his curious mind think. Poking his head outside, it was still warm enough to walk around for the early spring evening. Crawling out, he brushed his pants free of dirt and looked around the forest. Instead of the numerous barren trees, lots of green leaves, grasses, and flowering plants surrounded him. The forest was also more lively with the plentiful noises of birds and other small creatures that thrived this time of year.

"I'm glad that I never took up hunting like my dad did. Silvia and I would probably be mortal enemies by now." Johann looked through the trees with a content grin. Their coincidental meeting even occurred after he had lost his way from one of the trails. There were a lot of wonderful moments to remember, even when his parents caught them trying to sneak out like a pair of bashful teenagers. A less pleasant one however included the trip to the abandoned shack that could've passed off as a prop to a horror movie. A cooler breeze made him shiver to the present and head back down into the den where it was a little warmer. The quaint space greeted Johann silently as he moved onto the red blanket. He relaxed and rested against the earthen wall carefree. It was so nice being able to get away from all the background noise at home from modern day appliances. 'Dad's idea to get out more might be better than I thought.' Pretty soon, Johann found himself sitting in the den by the time he heard Silvia climbing down into the earthen home.

"Don't tell me that you're bored." She whined seeing him against the wall.

'Not a chance! Normally I don't have to wait for food to come to me, but staying here will be the main exception.' He thought to himself. "No, of course not. I'm just hungry again, and since you're providing-"

"Again so soon!" She happily sung to herself. "Just like during my heat."

"Well, three meals a day can go by quickly." He wondered how much milk that would equate to during a whole day.

"I don't mind doing it at all." She nudged him down to the red blanket. Silvia then completely laid down on her side presenting her lighter grey underbelly to him. Johann followed suit looking over all his possible options. He pressed against her and opted for the top row beginning his search. "A little higher." Silvia helped guide him to an awaiting nipple. He grazed it before clearing the surrounding fur away to reveal the pink fixture. The she wolf sighed feeling his mouth work dutifully. That maternal instinct was heavenly for the wolf, and it was one of the few moments that she could feel like a true mother. Silvia suddenly felt him stop and unlatch. She looked up about to voice something. "I'm just moving to a lonely one." He said scooting down to the lower row. Silvia chuckled at his comment and rested her head back down. She felt him find another one and resume normally. Her fluffy undercoat warmed his face while he swallowed mouthful after mouthful. He unlatched a second time only when his stomach was completely full.

"I can't describe the sensation when you feed Johann, but it's amazing." She sighed contently as he licked her teat clean.

"After all that I feel... Very full, and sleepy." He caught a hiccup and rolled away onto his other side.

"Go ahead and sleep, you will need to rest for the week ahead." Silvia scooted down behind him and pulled him in with her forelegs. The wolf's appendages weren't made for hugging, but she kept him pressed as close as possible. Her human mate snuggled closely to her warm protective form. His hand trailed behind him through the new spring coat she wore so beautifully. The grey pattern was still the same along with its insulating properties, but it was airier and weighed less than its winter version.

"Goodnight." He heard a sweet voice from above.

"Night." Johann replied snuggling up to her.

Johann blinked feeling fur surrounding his face. It was their first morning out in the forest for the week and it couldn't have started any better. Everything was warm and cozy inside their den despite it being early spring. Taking in a deep breath, he snuggled closer to Silvia and buried his face deeper into her fluffy light grey belly fur. She smelled like the forest, and a little like the inside of the house. But most of it was solely her unique scent. Johann rubbed his cheek against her soft fur only to feel something poke him. A pink fleshy spout, almost unnoticed from the ligh grey fur, barely peeked out from the messy fluff to greet him. He learned that Silvia enjoyed it if he gave the teat a slight tug while rubbing it, although too hard and milk might squirt out. The human brought his hand forward and carefully rubbed the nipple between a thumb and forefinger, giving it gentle tugs along the way. A deep breath was given from above as a paw flexed behind his back. If he didn't tug she would count it as teasing and would eventually stop him, which could lead to a tease for him down the road. This little pleasuring act however, was cut short though for the morning.

Remembering how empty his stomach was, Johann quickly parted her fur and latched on beginning to feed. It didn't take long for his efforts to yield a reward of smooth liquid from the providing wolf. The milk tasted good as always, and Silvia loved it whenever he fed from her. The den was soon filled with her soft breathing and quiet suckling noises from below. It was tough for him to not eat as much as he possibly could from the beautiful wolfess, especially when the supply was nearly limitless for him. Feeling full enough, Johann pulled back and licked his lips clean so none would be wasted. A paw suddenly pressed against the back of his head, mushing his face back into her belly.

"Are you sure that you're full?" She asked.

"Yes," He felt the paw back away giving him room to breath. She was far more likely to overfeed him, which normally made him go back to sleep. Johann quickly licked the grey teat clean and remained snuggled close to her enjoying the closeness. "Sleep well Silvia?"

"I'll admit that the bed in our new den is softer than this den and a blanket," she said with a yawn before splaying her limbs out everywhere. His hand ruffled through the fur on her side.

"But on the bright side, we're only a few steps from the forest floor."

"True." She smiled as he enjoyed the warmth of her fur. Johann murmured contently feeling her broad smooth tongue begin to wash over his face. The smooth stroked were soon intermingled with teasing nibbles.

"Careful, your teeth can be sharp." He chuckled unable to roll away from her.

"Sit still so I can wash you properly." She mockingly scolded him. He endured her little bites until she allowed him to sit up.

"Ok. How should start day one of our spring vacation?"

"Do you want a nice little tour of my backyard? With the snow gone you'll see a lot more." Sylvia stretched standing up.

"I'd like that." Johann replied taking her offer. Other than a quick love nip from Silvia, he dressed and they were soon outside walking through one of the many trails in the forest. The scenery was just as beautiful throughout the entire forest as she led him around, showing off where a particular memory occurred. It was like a sacred paradise exclusive to Silvia and him.

"I used to run around and play here a lot when I was little." She looked around the relatively flat area covered with saplings.

"That must've been a few years ago." He looked up at the relatively short trees.

"Pups grow up fast."

"I'm sure about that." He mused. "What did you exactly play out here?"

"Me and my mom used to play Tail, where whoever could bite onto the other's tail first won. She usually let me win, but I was really good at it." Silvia proudly stood with her chest puffed out.

"Really? Just how fast-" He turned around before the she wolf pounced on him. "Oof!" He looked up seeing a grey furry face above.

"Very fast." She said with a husky undertone.

"I can see." He sensually rubbed over a foreleg.

"Mhm." Her odd eyes stared at his own as they slowly descended to him. Johann carefully cradled her cheeks and pressed their lips together. Her cooler nose sent a delightful shiver throughout his body. The human was a tad unprepared though for her strong tongue plunging into his mouth. The she wolf's prickly short furred muzzle pressed forward in earnest, repeatedly darting her tongue deep into his mouth. "Mmrph." He sounded off with too much wolf on him. Silvia quickly got up.

"Sorry. Better now?" She asked. Johann took a deep breath feeling their faces part.

"Yeah. Thanks." He caught his breath while she rubbed her muzzle across his cheek.

"Can we do it right here?" She asked panting excitedly in his ear.

"Here?" He asked looking around the forest. It felt so open as he heard the forest buzz with its normal activity.

"Yes. Do you think someone will see?"

"No... We're alone in the woods." He said feeling a lick over his cheek.

"Then what are you waiting for?" Silvia said brushing her entire body across his, allowing her tail to trail under his chin.

"Since you're so persuasive," he hummed shedding his shirt.

"Wait. Let me get on my back so I can see you," she said turning around before rolling over on the ground. Johann looked down at the grinning wolf with her hind legs spread as far as she could go. Her tail thumped on the ground seeing him take off his pants and undergarments. It was strange for Johann to be naked outside where it was once covered in a foot of frigid snow. Silvia playfully growled seeing his erect member spring into view. It took a lot of willpower to prevent her tail from wagging in excitement. Smacking him between the legs would put a quick end to their tour of the forest. Her furry petals were parted as he penetrated his lovely wolfess, slowly impaling her. The wolf's muscles practically rippled greeting the familiar guest now entering. Johann had himself embedded to the hilt. Her passage was warm and surprisingly tight for someone her size, but Johann had become accustomed to the wonderful delight.

He breathed a happy sigh feeling her inner warmth encasing his entire length, as her fur did to his whole body every night. Her canine legs couldn't wrap around his back, but they squeezed his hips the best they could. "Warm and snug as always?" Silvia asked with a toothy grin.

"With you it would be hard not to." He replied deciding not to waste time. Wrapping his arms around her sides, he maintained a good grip and began slowly rocking their joined hips. The she wolf murred lustily and did her best to rock back in rhythm with her hips.

"Mmm." Her hind paws splayed their toes. "R-Right there Johann." She tensed up as he struck a sensitive spot. Johann zeroed in on the area and bucked steadily hearing passionate grunts from above. Her tongue lolled out of her muzzle with each thrust he gave gently rocking her large body. The passionate scent of arousal slowly leaked into the air around them, fueling their inner physical desires. Their lovemaking filled the forest with passionate cries as they edged one another closer to the brink. Johann could feel her passageway begin to tighten as his malehood leaked pre.

'So close!' He panted thrusting into her with wanton need. He could see the lust and love beaming from her canine eyes just before she threw her head back in a loud howl. Her canal suddenly contracted and tugged, causing Johann to spill his seed win her. He weakly continued bucking into her draw out the sensation for them both. Spent, Johann limply laid on top of her, his body now rising and falling to her breath. Despite the neutral weather, he felt perspiration formed across his forehead,

"That really hit the spot." Silvia murred already feeling him soften inside of her.

"Mhm." He replied resting on her front. "Although, we didn't finish looking around."

"I think we can repeat this routine tomorrow... Or later today." Her inner walls squeezed to stop him from going completely flaccid. Johann merely tried to catch his breath.

"Your dad wanted you to be interested in hunting, and I'm just the wolf to show you how it's done." She cheerfully proclaimed leading him through the forest. The she wolf wanted him to hunt with her, after all she only hunted every few days when it was needed.

"I'm pretty sure I will make a lot of noise though since there are more leaves around."

"Nonsense, I'll hear anything before it can hear you." He heard something faintly rustle off to the side.

"What was that noise then, Silvia the all hearing huntress?" Johann wondered if she knew what it was.

"I don't know, it could've just been a bear." She dismissed it with the flick of an ear walking along carefree.

"Just a bear?" Johann questioned with a feared look.

"I hunt them down or scare them off if they get too close. It's not a big deal to me."

"I hope you plan on hunting something less predatory."

"Putting you in danger will never happen as long as I'm here to protect you." She said bumping into his side a little.

"And hunting isn't dangerous?" He replied bumping back into her.

"With me it isn't, unless you want to run after something close to my size as I watch from the distance." She mused.

"No thanks, I'll let you do the hunting." Johann sheepishly grinned following her along the twisty unseen path.

"We'll need to be quiet now." She whispered. Johann watched as the wolf lowered closer to the ground keeping her tail still. The wolf checked to her left and right occasionally, using her nose to catch a whiff of something. Johann kept a few steps back and allowed her to do what she was built for, and that was to hunt! Silvia carefully directed him whether to stop or follow, clearly on to something. "I can smell a few deer." She whispered keeping her eyes focused ahead through the hilly section of forest. They stopped on top of a small perch where they could see a greater distance. A small herd of deer were revealed to be fifty or so yards away. "Stay here and watch." She grinned before sprinting after the group. The unprepared herd took off in flight. Silvia singled out the slowest doe as the rest split up and scattered. He watched her disappear for a minute over the hill before coming back with the prey in her powerful jaws. It would never cease to amaze him how powerful she was despite their unusual relationship.

"Good catch." He gave a round of applause as she approached, dropping the body a few feet away.

"Thank you." She bowed her head. "Now if you don't mind, I'm the one who is hungry now." Silvia immediately set to work eating her meal. Johann wasn't very squeamish, but he had to turn away when she began tearing through the animals gut. He didn't want to empty his stomach or ruin his appetite for later. Silvia didn't mind eating messily as she cleaned the body into a fresh carcass. She flashed him a reddened smile after picking the bones clean.

"Please clean your muzzle before you think of kissing me." He smirked as she licked her lips.

"They're already wet, just tasty now." She giggled as her mate made a face. A sudden huff had man and wolf turn their heads. Johann's eyes widened considerably as he jumped up.

'A brown bear!' He recognized the large mammal. The human could clearly see the large teeth in its muzzle from how close they were. It took a lumbering step towards him before Silvia quickly jumped between them. Both were about the same size, and just as fearsome to Johann. Silvia's fur along her back and neck was raised making the she wolf look even bigger than she normally did. Neither budged at first as the tense stand off ensued. To Johann it seemed as if the bear was looking directly at him, identifying the human with the smell of the freshly killed doe. The bear then took a step around to their right. Silvia suddenly gave a menacing bark then snarl to the large ursine that frightened Johann. Whenever it tried to step around her, the wolf would counter in a flash standing menacingly in its way. After what seemed to be an eternity, the large behemoth of brown fur finally gave up whatever it wanted and turned away. Sylvia hurried its departure by growling and jumping forward to nip at its heels. Johann could feel himself trembling as it dissapeared from sight.

"That could've been a tough struggle." She muttered to herself loosening up now that the clumsy animal had left them. "Are you ok Johann?" The she wolf looked back at him concerned.

"What about the bear?" Johann worried approaching her while scanning the forest ahead.

"I told it to go away." She replied with relief.

"You told it to go away?" His eyes spoke of disbelief.

"You heard my growl right?" She asked proudly.

"Will that be enough?" He anxiously looked around.

"It should. That's how I usual dealt with them. They usual come from the south, although I haven't seen one in a few years." Johann had no clue that his home potentially harbored bears. "Guess it was late for the deer I caught." Silvia looked over at the bones she left behind.

"Can we go back to the den now?" He helped flatten her raised hackles.

"Good idea." She didn't want to fight a bear that might lead to both of them getting injured. The walk back to the den was pretty quiet, and Johann stuck to Silvia as close as possible. "You ok Johann?" She asked feeling him shaking next to her.

"No." His voice wavered as they descended back into the den. The darker familiar scenery was reassuring with Silvia with him.

'And I thought that I was clingy.' Her expression softened. "Don't worry, I won't let any predator other than me near you." That did bring a grin to his face for a moment.

"What about when you go hunting again?" He sat on the red blanket with his back to the wall.

"I'll check over the entire forest to make sure that we're clear, you've never evaded my nose successfully."

"Please do." He sighed thankfully as Silvia helped calm and console him.

"I didn't a bear could scare you this bad since we're together."

"Bears just scare me." He laid down with her on the red blanket. Silvia allowed him to hug her closely, knowing how scared she could get as a pup. The wolf did her best to curl around him protectively. "Please don't howl. I don't want to have nightmares for a week." He hid his face completely into her chest fur.

"Alright, we'll go to sleep." Silvia crooned to him, resting her head overtop of his.

Human and wolf walked along a different forest trail that went south. Johann had been weary and very cautious about leaving the den without Silvia after a bear ran into them. It took a day for Silvia to drag him out. Normally she didn't mind being close to him, but he was too worried to do anything with. At least she had Johann out now. He had a secure arm around Silvia'a side, not that she minded, but it was a bit unlike him to do so. 'He has to be shaken up about that bear.' She reasoned leading him along the invisible path. In her mind he had nothing to worry about. Not even a pack of bears would stop the she wolf from defending her mate.

"I used to go here a lot before finding you." She passed by a small mossy area dotted with flowers. "It helped me pass time nicely."

"It's nice and calm here. You can hear the creek and see more trees than usual." She wore her wolffish grin staring into the new greenery.

"Isn't this the creek I fell into while running from you during that night in the fall?" He looked down able to see the winding waterway.

"Yes, and that was some cold water! I thought my paws would freeze before you almost did."

"I'm glad you made sure that neither of us froze." He felt a remembering chill shoot up his spine. Johann leaned back into her warmer front, grateful for his rescuer to be covered in fur. Sylvia positioned her forelegs so that he remained closely pressed against her body.

"Comfy?" She asked quietly resting her jaw over his head as if to lull him to sleep.

"Are you being very protective and babying me?" Johann smiled hugging her forelegs. Silvia craned her head down and nuzzled into his shoulder lovingly.

"Of course. You're my mate and I want to protect you from any harm." Johann chuckled feeling her nose prod around. "Now would my mate want his protector to feed him?"

"I don't see why not." He relaxed feeling her form press against his.

"Do you mind laying on your back so I don't have to roll around?"

"Of course not. Isn't that how I started feeding from you?"

"True." She replied brushing her muzzle across his face. Johann kissed the wolf's cheek and laid down for her. Silvia lined up giving him a nice view of her lighter grey underbelly before descending down on top of him. The furry warmth was enough to satisfy him if his stomach wasn't hungry again. Feeling through the fluffy grey, a potential target was found.

"Down a little." He said before telling her to stop as a skin like sensation flicked over his nose. Silvia settled down completely and relaxed as he began to eat. His hands wandered and soon began to pet her sides, scratching just where she liked it, and the pleasant maternal feeling for her was intense. Johann could hear her murring occasionally from above despite the muffling effect her fur had. It was soothing and reassuring.

'Mm. You're safe with me Johann.' She closed her eyes feeling him suckle away beneath her. Silvia was happy to hear and feel her mate eat his fill before he finally had to unlatch. "Let me clean you up" Silvia quickly stood up. She didn't give him much say in the matter as her pink tongue washed over his lips and chin.

"I didn't even have that much." He scratched her chin. She paused to enjoy the kind gesture. His hands were always welcome on her body. She sat up fully on her haunches.

"Where do you-" Silvia began to stand up only for Johann to grab hold of her forelegs.

"Can we just stay here for a while?" He gave a light tug. She smiled and laid down on top of him so that their noses touched.

"Of course." She softly licked his forehead.

Johann was sitting next to Silvia, facing her side with the waning sun behind him. At first glance it appeared like he was a farmer milking an extra furry cow, but a small accident was the cause for the funny position. "Why did you have to run through all those thorn bushes?" Johann asked pulling a long vine like structure from her belly. He had already disposed of the ones everywhere else, and was left with her underside to finish.

"We were running and got carried away," she tensed as he pried another out.

"At least I stopped after the first one nicked my skin, but you practically dragged the whole undergrowth with you back out."

"I thought it was just a vine on me."

"Either way, I don't want to be pricked while sleeping with you tonight." A little bit of fur torn off floated in the air before being carried away by the wind.

"I thought you would be more worried if I accidentally rolled over you." Silvia giggled.

"You're not that heavy, even though my dad did say that you were looking a little fatter than normal." She understandably tilted her head in confusion.

"I feel fine," the she wolf said looking between her forelegs and behind her shoulders. "Why? Is it something wrong?"

"No, not at all. I just remember him talking about it."

"Well the only time I look bigger is during a month of each heat cycle when I store more milk, but with you around to give relief they don't become so big."

"How big can they get?" He asked giving the fleshy spout a light pinch making the wolf's tail flick up.

"Before I met you I'd say each spot felt like a weighted apple attached to me." Johann was surprised as he rubbed over the nearly flat surface. Imagining a dozen large pouches hanging from her underbelly wasn't easily comprehendible to the human. Sure she developed breast like areas, but nothing that would hang low. Johann saw her tail wagging as he rubbed over her soft fur, feeling the spots where those "heavy apples" could develop. He increased the motion and broadly stroked over her soft underside with care. "Mmmm," she growled happily at his ministrations. Johann grinned, he always fancied making her really happy.

"The big bad wolf likes her tummy rubbed," He said now using both hands. Silvia's tongue was halfway out of her mouth as he scratched the canine's belly causing her leg to kick up. Something sharp nicked him through the grey fluff causing the playful gesture to stop. "Ow!" He pulled his finger back seeing a red line now created. Blood slowly oozed out of his new superficial wound. Feeling through the fur, Johann quickly dislodged the last briar of thorns from the wolf's thick coat. "We finally got rid of the last one," he said as she turned to face him. Silvia's pupils dilated as she smelled the blood on his finger. Johann made an 'eep' noise when the wolf slipped her fuzzy lips around it. A tongue repeatedly lapped against the finger until he was able to pull it out with a wet pop.

"Hey I was cleaning it for you."

"I'm not bleeding out. I should be fine." He took a look for himself only to frown at the red line.

"Just let me help you," Silvia said sniffing briefly at the cut.

"At least it's not frilled with a hundred splinters like your paw back in the start of winter." He stated before offering his hand to her.

"There were hardly twenty of them in my paw," she said before putting the finger into her mouth once more, returning to cleaning it. Johann patiently watched while Silvia used her muscular tongue to wash over it. His mind began to wander. The muscular warm appendage cleaned him stroke after stroke, reminding him of other intimate times. "Are you ok?" Silvia asked seeing his reddened face.

"Oh, sorry my mind just went other places." He nervously stated looking over his finger once more to avoid eye contact as her pupils sharpened.

"Tell me." She said fully turning towards him. The she wolf took a step forward causing him to fall onto his rear.

"No, it's nothing." Johann said unconvincingly scooting back.

"I'm all ears anyway." Silvia said standing over him with a toothy grin. She gave his forehead a quick lick making him finally speak up.

"I just... Imagined your tongue going other places." He admitted not helping the shade of red on his face. At first she tilted her head before looking down to see a noticeable bulge in the human's shorts.

"I arouse you that easily huh?" She smiled brushing her muzzle across his face.

"You are very beautiful to say the least, and very attractive." Johann said hugging her neck while rubbing his head against hers. She pulled her head back looking at him expectantly.

"I'd like to see how attractive you find me." She said with a salacious tone. "If you don't mind Johann, or should I rip those shorts off you myself?"

"Ah, ok, ok!" He shooed her curious head away only to hear the wolf chuckle.

"You remind me of a nervous pup." The she wolf chuckled as he fumbled around with his pants before taking them off along with his undergarments. Silvia licked her lips seeing his malehood in full view, bobbing before her in time with his heartbeat. She took a step forward and brushed her cold nose against his cheek making him shiver. "Let's go to the den first," she whispered into his ear, whiskers tickling at him. Johann gathered his clothes and followed her in the nude back the short distance to their den. At least she didn't carry him by his neck over the rougher terrain. He crawled down the den with his mate bumping up behind him. A cool nose brushed his cheek before her flank sensually brushed by him as they made it to the bottom.

"I don't know why I felt nervous when you've done this plenty of times before." Johann said laying down on the red blanket.

"Probably because I haven't done it since it last snowed." Silvia remarked walking over to his legs. He spread them invitingly for the she wolf as she laid down between them, hooking her forelegs over his thighs. "Now look at what we have here." She chuffed around his exposed groin with a cold nose sending chills up her mate's spine. Silvia looked over where her eventual prize laid in store, two twinned orbs resting in their skin pouch. A lick was given over each before turning her attention above to his erect spire. The sensitive underside was where she loved to tease Johann, but the wolfess didn't really have any plans for such a thing now as she licked with long broad strokes. Her mate gave a pleasant sigh as the warmth of her appendage caused the pleasure to surge.

"Oh God Silvia, you're tongue feels wonderful."

"Aww, thank you. That means I'm doing my job very well." She replied lapping with ease along the sensitive underside of his pole. Her forelegs did a good job as well of holding him down when he tried wriggling or bucking. The she wolf didn't want to send him over the edge immediately or else it wouldn't be so enjoyable for either of them. So Silvia built him up steadily. Johann tensed up feeling those deadly teeth lightly nibble on him.

"Ah!" He begged through clenched teeth. "Careful with those." She giggled silencing his worries with her smooth tongue. Sylvia switched to nibbling once more before a tempting reward caught her blue and grey eyes. A translucent drop accumulated at the very tip of his length, proving too much to pass up on. The canine's warm lips trailed up his length causing Johann to grunt passionately. Sylvia gently kissed the top and suckled his tip for a moment to collect the pre that had gathered there. Silvia grinned tasting the treat and teased a little more out by slowly lapping around the area. Johann blissfully watched as she skillfully pleasured him. The toughest part for him though was not thrusting up into her muzzle. Her rows of sharp teeth proved to be a good enough reason. She tempted him and wrapped her lips around the tip. Their eyes met as he breathed heavily. The she wolf winked at him with a smile. She heard a grunting moan come from his throat as her muzzle slowly engulfed him until her nose chuffed lightly at the hair tickling her.

With his member trapped inside her, Silvia didn't hesitate in pleasuring her mate. She wanted him to cum as much as he did. The canine's tongue fervently caressed his smooth and sensitive underside drawing out more than just pleasured moans. The little droplets served to fuel her desire for more. Johann watched her muzzle with a dazed look, feeling the wolf's entire mouth caress his length with one strong fluid motion. The wave of pressure was reaching a crest. "S-Silvia. I'm gunna-" The human's hips tried to buck, but the wolf held him steady. Her rapid lapping and suckling quickly earned a euphoric cry from above as his length twitched once in imminent warning.

'Yes. Let it all out for me.' Silvia formed a tight seal with her lips feeling him pulse once more. Johann squeezed his eyes shut with a loud groan and came hard into her hot maw. His body was held in place as her mouth dutifully went to work collecting the reward spurt after spurt. Her mate was in a blissful heaven. He could hear her quiet suckling draw out every last drop and little else as she made the euphoria last as long as possible. Sylvia continued to lick until he finally grew soft, her least favorite part. Looking up, she found her mate breathing hard from the exhausting thrill. She smiled and nuzzled his thigh before standing up. Silvia stepped over and licked his face to keep him awake. "Don't pass out on me Johann, or I will have to find a way to wake you up." She continued lapping over him until the human sat up.

"Joining me for a nap sounds better." He wiped his face dry. "Although you'd wake me up the same way you made me pass out." Silvia chuckled heartily and laid down on top of him.

"Going to bed early sounds better than a nap, the sun has started setting and you can't run out with me in the cold or dark."

"It's that late already?" He looked over to the den's entrance, surprised to see that the sunlight was much dimmer than normal with a golden appearance.

"And if you don't mind, I'll be right back in a while." Silvia promised heading over to the entrance.

"Okay." He waved an arm up, too tired to do much else. Johann would've fallen asleep had it not been for the dropping temperature, and the Silvia's surprisingly lengthy absence. She looked tired and weary coming back down from outside, but she didn't complain laying down for Johann to eat. To his surprise, Silvia remained silent as he ate, not even a pet brought out a low growling murr from her. When Johann finished, he snuggled up close to the she wolf's chest below her forelegs. Her breathing was rhythmic as always, but something wasn't right. "Is something bothering you Silvia?"He asked as she gathered a response.

"Johann... Do you think I am useless to you?" The human opened his eyes despite it being very dark.

"No! Of course not. Why would you say that?"

"I mean, your dad told you that I looked a little bigger than last visit. There wasn't anything about me as a compliment."

"I don't expect my dad to know the details of us, and all the fun we've had. Besides you are worth everything to me." He stated scratching a hand through the swirly grey fur on her flank. 'I didn't think weight would bother her.'

"But all I do is hunt. You provide me with a soft bedding and den, not to mention a whole house! Then there's my heat you satisfy fully without complaint." She stopped with a huff looking over towards the den's entrance. Johann scooted up along the furry surface and wrapped his arms around her neck so that their noses touched.

"First of all you keep me warm and protected all night. You are always there by my side if I need anyone to talk to. We have plenty of fun adventures every day, good and bad, but most importantly, who else would I spend each day with that I love so much?" He finished his point with a kiss to her canine lips causing them to curl into a grin. The she wolf whined kissing back lightly.

"Do you really mean all of that?" She whispered softly flicking her tongue over his lips.

"Of course I do!" He exclaimed before resuming the kiss, bringing his hands behind her ears to scratch them. The canine's odd eyes closed enjoying the sweet gesture despite the groping he had to go through to find them.

"Thanks." She murmured gratefully.

"Besides," he pulled back, "it looks like you're the one providing me with a den and bed." Johann stated nuzzling into her fluffy neck fur.

"Okay little pup of mine, let's go to sleep." She brought a protective foreleg over him, keeping her mate closely snuggled up against her.

Johann crept behind a bush before peering out towards the trail that led to their den. 'She won't get me this time!' He gleefully looked around seeing nothing but trees to witness it. There wasn't even the slightest wind for Silvia to pick up his scent. The human carefully walked keeping low to the ground for tree to tree. The evening sun casted perfect shadows for him to use to blend in with the foliage around him. Johann could easily see the top of the den's entrance. He crouched low by a tree hearing something ahead. Movement caught his eye as Silvia trotted up towards the den. The wolf's nose traced low to the ground before her lips curled into a pleasant grin.

'She's doing that on purpose!' He whipped around and remained frozen behind the tree, afraid to peek around. He could hear the canine use her nose to try and locate him before he could even get close to their den. 'Let's see.' He noticed a small rock on the ground. Johann waited until her head faced away before hurling the rock far to his right. The small crash that ensued caught Silvia's attention immediately and the canine hurried over to where he threw the rock. 'It's clear! Just get close enough, then run.' He extricated himself from his hiding place. Johann passed another tree and looked all around only to smile with accomplishment. Taking a step out into the open, his confidence dropped like a lead weight hearing paw steps behind him. "NNNOOO!" He broke out sprinting the last few yards. A strong set of jaws grabbed onto his shoulder. His legs didn't register the fact that his upper body had stopped, and the human quickly found himself on the ground facing the sky.

"I didn't mean to trip you." Silvia said as her head craned over his.

"Ow.... I was so close too."

"Aww, now I feel bad for letting you think that you could win." She licked his face softly as an apology. Johann caught his breath and looked up at the giant wolf on top of him.

"You and your stealth." He resigned himself to her affections.

"Now," she allowed him to get up, "what happens to you since I caught you?"

"I only agreed because we didn't bring up betting something." He protested.

"I thought it was because I haven't scented that bear in three days."

"That too." He admitted only to lean back seeing Silvia's brown and icy blue eye turn mischievous.

"Maybe I could tease you for the night." She gave a wolffish smile showing off her teeth and maw.

"No teasing. I'm begging you." He felt her press up against him. All the she wolf had to do was hold him still and pleasure him without release. Neither of which were difficult for her to accomplish.

"So you don't want my tongue pleasuring you for hours?" Her whiskers tickled his ear.

"Please don't." He paused to shudder as her canine teeth lightly nibbled his shoulder.

"Hmmm." Silvia paused to think. It wasn't every day that she had Johann caught by his word. "Since you love it when my tongue pleasures you, how about pleasuring me with yours?" She offered with a toothy grin. That was a big change from the normal routine, and Johann had never performed the equivalent of oral to her.

"I don't think I'll do very well." He nervously rubbed his tongue along the roof of his mouth. Hers was muscular and smooth, not to mention huge.

"Well it's not like you aren't already feeding from me, so I can't think of anything else. That is, unless you want plenty of teasing for the night." Her toothy grin had him convinced otherwise.

"Let's head back to the den for the first option." He walked over to their den as she bolted ahead of him. Silvia could hardly wait, even as she laid down on the red blanket making herself comfortable. Johann barely made it down where he found her ready and excited. She made a seductive pose for him by lifting a leg, revealing her very aroused femininity. 'You're already wet?' He settled down by her sex seeing the wet shine of moisture.

"The suspense is killing me." She whined down to him.

"It would be easier if you stopped wagging your tail so much." He couldn't help but grin as it thoughtfully tapped him.

"Oops, sorry." She did her best to relax. He scrunched his nose wondering what to make of the very subtle aroma. 'Not musky like when she was in heat.' He observed making himself comfortable next to the source. Silvia watched him with lustful anticipation as his war breath was felt against her folds. Johann gave one broad stroke over her entire slit causing Silvia to sigh happily and rest her head.

"Was that ok?"

"Don't limit yourself, and yes, that was perfect." She encouraged him with a quick breath. Johann repeated the action and traced over the meaty lips, creating a slow rhythm to start out.

'At least there's no bad taste.' He found her treasure fairly tolerable. A nice tingling warmth slowly began to build up around her sex, and Silvia was enjoying every moment. He gave special attention towards the lower half where she squirmed and murred more.

"You're sensitive." He teased enjoying her reactions. She merely responded with a wolfish moan. Able to hear her breathing with a little more energy, Johann used a hand to part the wolf's labia and began lapping within her. He wiggled his tongue quickly within her hot snatch causing the wolf's muscles to tense up.

"Ooh!" She lightly gasped arching her back. Emboldened by her reaction, Johann traced around the muscular walls before prodding as deep as he could go. Johann could feel her canal rippling with excitement as he pleasured her. Silvia gave a preemptive howl as he pressed his lips fully to her own and began to French kiss her entire sex. The she wolf cooed lavishly down to him before succumbing to her own panting. Meanwhile, Johann's other hand worked its way just above her opening and began to gently massage over where her clit was hidden. Her downy fur was pleasantly soft against his face as he brought many more rewarding cooes from his canine companion. Silvia tried bucking her hips with a frustrated grunt hoping to Burt his appendage into her welcoming entrance. Johann explored her as if she were a dark cave, going over every bump and ridge to build a mental map of her. His ministrations drove the recipient wild as she contained herself from rolling around. He could feel a small trickle of liquid and erratic muscle contractions indicating how close the she wolf was to climaxing.

"Ah! Johann!" A shrill bark echoed out into the forest as Silvia hit her breaking point. Hind legs bucked trying to hump his face as he continued to pleasure her through the orgasm. Johann hung on for dear life as he "rode" through it as well. The earthen ceiling finally returned to Silvia's vision as she gave an exhausted sigh. Her legs twitched as Johann's face remained plastered around the cusp of her entrance. "If you do this during my heat," She paused to catch her breath as he sat up, "it would be heavenly."

"Glad to her that you enjoyed it." He wiped his face off with a hand towel that he had packed. "Although that was definitely a new experience for me."

"Is this how you feel whenever I do it to you?"

"Well, sort of." He grabbed a large hind paw. "You hold me down, and I try holding on to you." She chuckled at that.

The sound of rain filled the den as a storm passed overhead. The morning was still remarkably dim from the heavy grey cloud cover.

"It's just one of those days," Johann said with a shrug looking up towards the entrance. He was still naked laying down with Silvia on the red blanket. Clothing wasn't exactly a necessity while remaining in the den with a furry wolf halfway on top of him.

"At least it's not a blizzard out there," Silvia said before laying her head on top of his. He chuckled poking his face out from the fluffy forest of grey fur.

"How about a warm blizzard of fur?" He asked.

"A blizzard of me good enough for you?" the she wolf commented before licking over his face.

"Always," he cupped her cheeks to give his she wolf a kiss. Thunder rumbled far away in the distance that matched the happy growl she emitted. Johann nestled into her foreleg and chest as if Silvia had become a pillow. Man and wolf contently enjoyed each other's company while listening to the natural white noise of nature. Both dozed off once in a while before a familiar growl was heard. Johann suddenly slipped out from underneath her in response.

"Hungry?" She asked expectantly.

"Sorry, but I'll eat something I packed along this time." He replied getting up.

"Aww." She huffed faking anger. "You can always change your mind."

"Just a little variety for the day." A zipper was opened and he grabbed a granola bar along with a bagel.

"That's hardly anything filling from what you brought."

"It is solid though, not a liquid hidden underneath your fur." The she wolf rolled her eyes.

'I'm a wolf, what do you expect?' Silvia watched him eat the unappetizing food. Johann took his time eating and enjoyed the view he had of the giant wolf. Her grey hind legs daintily perpendicular to her equally grey torso. Silvia's tail remained somewhat curled up revealing the fluffier light grey fur of the nether regions that was barely arms length away. Johann caught himself staring between the wolf's legs, and he couldn't hide it from her watchful eyes.

"See something you like?" She asked lifting a leg as her tail began to wag. Her pink lips were barely visible beneath the fluff with the present lighting, but he knew the show she was putting forth. Out of temptation, Johann reached over and placed his palm directly over her sex. The fur was downy and soft to the touch. He felt over Silvia's lightly furred labia enjoying the heat it gave off from within. A wanting whine from above brought his attention back to her. "I wouldn't mind a little... Attention there." The wolfess shyly asked pinning her ears back. To her surprise, the human didn't pounce on the offer as she wanted.

"Well... How about we stay in bed a little longer before we head back home?" Johann crawled up before laying down with her. The wolfess didn't know him to skip out on a passionate mating session, but grinned pulling the human close to her body anyway.

"I do expect a long mating to make up for this."

"Just don't make me pass out." Johann said seeing her odd eyes sparkle with mischief.

"I would never want that to happen." She brushed her muzzle over his cheek lovingly.

"Good." He replied with a muffled voice.

"Would you have wanted to if I was on my front, tail hiked up?" Silvia asked providing a vivid image for him to dwell on.

"I would've how you are now." He blushed at the statement.

"Even though I'm sideways?" She pointed out only to feel him pat her shoulder.

"That's fine by me. We've done more than one position before." He assured her with a quick kiss. Silvia still gave him a quizzical look but shrugged it off when he kissed her nose next.

"Then what else should be done while it's raining outside?"

"Stay together." He buried one side of his face into her fur. Silvia didn't mind and brought a foreleg over him.

"My mom and dad used to tell me stories if it was raining too much to go outside and hunt. Such as, why the full moon glows at night, why the mountains are so tall, or why wolves can't fly."

"Let's start with the full moon one." Johann partially snuggled up under her.

"Ok, here's how it went." She started out...

Silvia was laying on her back while soaking up some warm afternoon rays. Their week of vacationing was just about finished as Johann was busy packing up the last items they had brought. She wanted to help, but her size made the den cramped for a lot of back and forth moving. Her black nose wiggled smelling honeysuckles nearby. Plenty other aromas had frequented her olfactory during the morning including bees readily searching it pollen. The thought of sweet golden honey made the she wolf lick her lips with a watering mouth. The wolf stretched her legs towards the sky before rolling onto her side with a yawn.

'Ok, I do miss the bed.' She stretched with a yawn before standing back up. Silvia didn't want to admit it to herself, but she had become accustomed to the luxury in their den back at home. 'Although I have to admit, this was a nice idea.' The wolf walked up to the entrance and peered down unable to see her mate. "Need any help down there?" She called to him.

"Almost ready to go!" He replied. Being impatient, Silvia quickly trotted down after him. Just as Johann started rolling up the blanket, he felt a cool nose followed by a short furred muzzle brush against his cheek.

"Thanks for taking me out here to vacation. It was a lot of fun." She rubbed her whiskered muzzle sensually over him.

"I had just as much fun." He turned to hug her neck.

"I didn't think I was the only one." She licked his cheek before getting his backpack with her mouth. The sunshine was welcoming as they both climbed out of the den for the last time this week.

"We'll be back to see your den another time Silvia." Johann grabbed his pack from her as they set off onto the trail back home.

"I know we will." She replied smiling with an open mouth, walking beside him.

"Just let me sleep in a bed for a few days." They both laughed. No matter what they could do to "renovate" their den out in the woods, adding a mattress simply wasn't one of them. Almost back to their real home, Silvia began leaning up against Johann murring deeply. "Something on your mind?"

"My next heat isn't that far away, and I'm actually looking forward to it this time." She gave a sultry grin looking over at her mate.

"At least I'm prepared and know what to expect this time." He said wrapping an arm over her side while walking down the pathway.

"I'll give you plenty of warning when it does hit, and no freaking out over embarrassments like the first time." Her ears pinned back briefly out of embarrassment itself until a hand pet her head soothingly.

"Don't worry, I enjoy it as much as you do. Besides, pampering you for a week or two twice a year is always satisfactory in itself." Silvia felt her heart jump happily remembering all the pampering he would do for her biannual time of the year.

"So what do you want to do first when we get home?"

"Shower." He said making the she wolf chuckle. Silvia would never understand why he was so sensitive about that.

"You smell fine!" She pressed her nose into his side taking in his scent. "Just like you."

"I can only take so much of myself." They both laughed as his backyard came into sight.
