#2 of In the Raw

Second installment about the strippers from In the Raw.


Gabriel pushed past Juno into the changing room. "Sorry Juno, but this guy just won't stop following me!" He almost didn't get the door closed in time to avoid the paw that reached for him. Once he was safely inside the dressing room he leaned back on the door, wincing when he heard his unwanted stalker's yelp of pain. Juno was one of the bouncers for a reason!

As the sounds outside the door subsided Gabriel started to relax. Some of the patrons here thought just because he was a submissive he should bow down to anyone who felt like bossing him around. Most times a polite yet firm "No." was enough to make them back off but every now and then he got cornered by one like that cougar out there that he couldn't dissuade. A soft rap on the door startled him and he spun around to stare at it. "W-who's there?"

The voice that drifted through to him was as familiar as his own. "Open the door, Blaze." Smoke gave the order like he expected it to be followed.

His hand was on the doorknob before he realized he was moving it. As the door swung open he backed up to let Smoke into the room. He couldn't resist a peek to see if Juno was back yet, and smiled at her when she gave him a thumbs up. Shutting the door, he lowered his eyes respectfully before he turned. It was a good thing he did as Smoke was facing him. "Who was your friend? He seemed rather persistent."

His snake-like tongue flicked out over his lips and his tail tip tucked between his legs. "Sorry Sir, I was speaking with a potential client Jerome sent my way, about a possible scene she wants to try when he pushed her out of the way and started demanding that I drop to my knees and service him right in the main club." He shivered a little as the larger male stepped closer to him.

"You could have simply called the security staff to handle him. Why did you lead him on a merry chase all the way back stage?" The bull slowly circled him, not touching but making his presence felt all the same.

The lizard shivered a little more swallowing hard before he lifted his eyes to meet the other males gaze steadily. "I didn't want any of the clients to be frightened, this way Juno could handle him and take him out back with a minimum of fuss." He lifted one shoulder in a halfway shrug and continued. "I knew Juno was here and that she could handle his unwanted persistence in a way that would make sure no one was disturbed by it."

The large grey bull moved around in front of him again nodding his approval. "If you're ready let's get into costume. We only have a few more minutes before we're on." Smoke started toward the costume rack to select the ripped jeans and faded too tight shirt that made up his 'criminal' costume. Unashamedly stripping down to the buff before pulling on a leather jock to go under the rest.

Gabriel couldn't help watching for a few moments. Smoke had a wonderful body, far more developed than the wolf's own, though in the past few months he'd been working on his upper body, wanting to strengthen his shoulders for this persona specifically. A pointed look from Smoke had him scurrying to collect the bits and pieces of his 'cop' costume. He stripped down quickly, pulling a pair of blue bikini cut underwear on before the dark blue dress pants and lighter blue shirt. It was the shirt that made the outfit; it had darker blue patches along the shoulders and down the center of both breast pockets. When he added the matching dark blue tie, a clip on 'police' badge and the hip holster it looked enough like the real thing to pass under the dim conditions out in the club.

Smoke handed him the prop gun that went in his holster, again nodding his approval of the lizard's actions as he tucked his prop gun into the back of his waist line. They both turned to find Rick and Dirk the two stage hands who would act as both victims for the 'gangster' and with minor costume changes, backup for the 'police', to make sure they were ready for their parts in this performance. They got off easy as far as Gabriel was concerned, both of them would pose and do all of their actions behind white screens with only their shadows showing to the audience where as he and Smoke would not only be on stage and dancing but bearing everything for the appreciation of the crowd. He couldn't help it, just thinking about being naked in front of all those strangers made his slit part and his cock start to push out into his pants.

A deep chuckle startled him into looking at Smoke. "I wondered when it would hit you." The bull's dark brown eyes were locked on the swelling in the front of his pants. "At least you get off on the idea." His knowing grin made Gabriel glance down at the front of his jeans. Smoke was even more aroused than he was. His eyes widened as he looked up to meet the bull's gaze once more. "No you aren't the only one who has that reaction. If you can dance like that we'll make way more in tips." He licked his lips, before turning to face the dark curtain that separated the dressing room from the stage. "Dallas is just finishing his last song, then we're up. I think it was a good idea to start you on guy's night. This way you know that all eyes are on you and you'll feel every lingering gaze as a physical caress. Should keep you good and hard for the duration." The bull didn't look back to see what effect his words had on Gabriel, he didn't need to as they tore a ragged moan from the lizard's throat and made him move up behind his new partner.

"Smoke, how do you keep from leaking all over the stage?" Having a partially aroused dick in his pants just made him that much more aware of the tight fit to the costume he was wearing.

The bull chuckled low once more, glancing over his shoulder at the shorter male. "Just don't step in the wet spots." He winked then added, "That's why there is a song between us and the next act so the stage hands can clean the stage as well as collecting our tip money."

The music, something with a heavy bass line, ended and the DJ's voice blasted out, "Let's have a big hand for Dallas. He's really worked up a sweat out there." The audience laughed and Dallas slipped through the blackout curtain. "He is available for both ladies and gentlemen, just pop out to the foyer and set up and appointment folks. Or if you'd rather see him on stage again, he'll be back once more this evening!" The applause nearly drowned out the start of the next song. The cougar was naked, soaking wet and holding bits of his costume, mostly notably the hard hat and tool belt filled with sex toys. He passed the two waiting men with the briefest of nods heading right for the dressing tables. "Good crowd tonight." The evidence of that was brought to him by the stage hands along with the quick remove work boots he wore in his persona as a blue collar working man.

Gabriel automatically stepped between Dallas and Smoke as the cougar shook his upper body to get some of the water out of his fur. "Sorry." He mumbled noticing the water spots on Gabriel's costume as he grabbed a towel and started briskly drying himself.

Smoke growled something under his breath, grabbed Gabriel by the shoulders and turned him around to survey the damage. "Damn it Dallas, those spots are going to show!" The large bull reached for a hair dryer, turned it on full, and started working on drying the lizard's costume.

The most noticeable of the spots were dry before they heard their cue. The DJ's voice boomed out again, "Alright, alright, I know you're aching for more of our delicious cocks to be on display and you're in for a treat! Tonight is the debut of our first Lizard! His name is Blaze and he's chosen to pair up with one of your all time favorites Smoke! They are here to rock your world with a story about a guy on the run and the cop who catches him!"

Smoke straightened up and gave Blaze a once over. "It'll have to do I'm on." He gave the lizard a light kiss on the cheek whispering, "Break a leg." Then backed through the blackout curtain to start his part of the dance they had been working on all month.

In his mind Blaze saw the large bull skulking around the back darker areas of the stage acting like a fugitive, and just when he would turn to face the audience he heard a collective gasp. Smoke had told him that the fans would expect him to take the role of the police officer and it seemed he was right. The fact that the bull was acting like a common criminal out there had them on the edges of their seats. After all who could take down a bull that size? They'd never expect such a small timid looking lizard to manage it. But that's what Smoke said he wanted them to be thinking. He heard the sound of gunshots going off and knew that Smoke in his guise as the criminal had just 'killed' Rick, a few more moments and more shots went off signaling Dirk's death as he tried to take Smoke out. His hands started to shake as he thought about stepping through that curtain, finding himself surrounded by all those watching greedy eyes...

A polite cough pulled his eyes to Dallas who just looked down at his crotch. He followed the cougar's gaze and blushed making his cheek hide turn a darker shade of blue. He was so aroused by the thought of all those people that he'd managed to make a new wet spot on his trousers. Ah well no time to fix it now. Hauling out his gun he took a few deep breaths and closed his eyes waiting by the curtain for the change that signified the second song.

Smoke had chosen the music and at first Gabriel hadn't understood the significance of the pieces he'd put together but now it made sense as "Smooth criminal" came to an end and the first strains of "Bad boy's" came blasting over the speakers. The crowd started laughing and applauding as he burst out onto the stage with his gun ready. The state of his cock was the least of his worries when the lights hit him, he didn't freeze, thank the gods, but it was an effort to make himself move. He felt wooden like he was a puppet on strings as he started to chase his "quarry" across the stage. He knew the steps by heart and that was all that kept him moving forward instead of bolting back through that curtain.

Partway through the song there was a point where Smoke came up behind him, both of them unaware of the other as far as the crowd could tell, during that small moment Smoke whispered "You're doing great, just focus on the steps." Then they bumped into each other and jumped apart only to dive and roll in opposite directions. Finally with the help of his 'back up' stagehands in the form of shadowy figures he managed to 'capture' the bull and take him down without killing him.

The music faded out to be replaced by love is a battlefield by some woman that Gabriel had never heard of before, just as the middle pillar on stage turned and he shoved Smoke into the prison cell that it had become. The large Bull acted like he was trying to break out of the cell as he danced around it, taunting at first but then slowly starting to regard the captive with pity and even some admiration as the large man's muscles strained while he tried to pry the bars apart.

Smoke saw him watching and started to flex and do various other things that showed off his muscles to good advantage and he spun around the stage his hands sliding down his body to bring more and more attention to the erection that he was barely hiding in his pants. The Bull smiled knowingly stripping off his shirt to leave him in just the faded jeans, leaning back on the bunk and fondling himself in a very obvious way as he watched Gabriel's body for signs that he was having an effect on the smaller police officer. Finally as the music started to draw to a close Gabriel, his movements looking sneaky and sly moved closer to the cage and released the bull who slunk off stage with him just as the song came to an end.

They grabbed water bottles and hastily swallowed the contents, both panting from the heat under the lights and the exertion of their various activities. A quick shift in clothing and the Bull was ready; whereas Gabriel's preparations took a little longer. He stripped down fully and they both worked to apply a lotion to his sensitive hide, making sure to miss nothing, not even his erect cock. It smelled slightly astringent but that was the price he paid for the performance to come. Smoke went to the far side of the room to check the little cart that would be pushed to center stage, making sure everything that they would need was there and in the proper working order while he pulled his costume back on and straightened his tie. Then it was time and they took each other's hands before slipping back onto the stage to the opening strains of Queen's "I want it all."

Smoke looked like he knew exactly what he wanted from the smaller male as he danced around him, jerking his belt free and flicking it toward the back of the stage. As he worked himself into a frenzy of movement Gabe could only stand there and watch in amazement, occasionally reaching toward the bull as if he wanted to touch but was too afraid to move in. Then the Bull danced closer, starting to paw at the lizard, pulling at his tie and flicking his hat off his head. He bullied the smaller male into a corner (really the pillar turned again and put to a different use) just as he ripped his jeans off totally and posed in his leather jockstrap, this one was white to contrast his darker fur.

The song died out and Smoke held the pose while the first strains of Gabe's song started, it was a softer more mellow song but it held no less power in the words that he was dancing to. He moved slowly at first, stroking the Bull with light fingertips, and making it seem like he was trying to make up his mind about something. As the song grew stronger and more forceful he started to pull his clothing off, the tie fell to the floor and he worked his belt off as well, then came his shirt followed by his pants leaving him a blinding streak of white with blue tipped tail and head. He was panting by the time he fell to his knees before the bull who had remained impassive through most of his dancing, at least until his underwear fell to the boards and showed off his prominent erection. That's the point at which the crowd rose to their feet and started cheering and stomping, the bull smiled and leaned down to whisper, "I told you." as he ran his hand down Gabe's chest and abdomen.

The song died out and the small cart was wheeled onto the stage by a pulley worked from the dressing room by one of the stage hands. The new song was another he wasn't familiar with but the Bull said it would work for what they wanted, as the first notes of piano music started. Smoke wrapped his wrists in metal cuffs that fell from the rafters and he was forced to his feet. As the woman started to sing the bull picked up the lighter and the alcohol soaked cotton on the end of a short stick. The fire came up in a rush which had the audience cheering once more just as he became the focus of that same flame. The lotion on his hide protected him from the most damaging of the flames but there was a deep heat that made him lift his muzzle and let out moans and soft pants as the Bull moved it around his body. At first Smoke stayed to his chest, shoulders, arms and back, but as the song went on he switched to a larger cotton ball and started working his way down the white hide.

The first touch of that flame laden cotton to his shaft had him crying out, but it took a few more passes before he erupted into orgasm, Smoke knowing from rehearsals that it was coming managed to stay to the side so that the audience saw the whole glorious process. His body tensing up under the heat of that supposedly uncontrolled fire as it was played over his straining member, the way his cock bobbed toward the flames a few times as the cotton rolled up his shaft and the final thrust forward of his hips into the flames as his cum rushed out and splattered on the stage a few drops catching unsuspecting furs in the front row. At that exact point the song ended and Smoke dropped the cotton ball into the ring of alcohol that he'd surreptitiously managed to get around Gabe's body so that it seemed as if a fireball rose up around him after the lights cut. The pulley worked in reverse to clear the cart from the stage as Smoke's deft hands loosed his wrists and picked him up to carry him unseen from the stage.

Back in the changing room Gabriel clung to Smoke's strong shoulders still shuddering from his reaction to the fire play, panting and moaning softly into the broad chest of his partner. Smoke, ever the gentleman sat in one of the large chairs and cradled the lizard against his chest stroking him soothingly and telling him how marvelous he was. It was a precious moment that made Gabe relish his relationship with Smoke all the more. When he finally managed to get his breath back he tilted his head up and looked into Smoke's eyes. "That... was so much more... intense than I expected!" He blushed as the Bull laughed that deep throaty laugh that he got when Gabe said something to amuse him.

"I should hope so little lizard. You had the entire audience glued to their seats watching you react to a little flame." He nuzzled the top of Gabriel's head and whispered, "I think you have a new fan club."

Gabe blushed even more finally turning his head to look around the room. There on their dressing table was an enormous pile of money, and several roses that seemed to have come from the stage as well. "But... They have to be for you! I'm no one." However, Rick who was just bringing another handful of roses in off the stage pushed past the black out curtain at that moment and let the lizard hear the crowd chanting "Blaze! Blaze! Blaze!" over and over loudly enough to drown out the DJ's attempts to calm them down. All he could say was "Oh..." In a meek voice as the Bull rumbled out another laugh.

For a little longer they stayed that way, the bull's strong arms holding him safe and secure, until Midnight walked in. Gabriel blushed at being caught in the bull's lap and pulled himself together standing up and shaking himself all over. "Thank you Smoke, that was... an intoxicating experience. I hope it happens again with our next performance." He tried not to let the presence of the other male distract him as he found his personal clothing and started to get dressed.

Smoke shook his head and touched the lizard on the shoulder. "Blaze doesn't wear his street clothing in the club. He wears something appropriate to his appointments." He motioned for Juno who was inside the room now to come over. "What appointments does Blaze have today Juno?" He grinned at the lizard's confusion. "You didn't think you'd just be going home now did you?"

Juno consulted her Tablet, "Blaze has three appointments this evening. A lady who would like to flog him, a gentleman who wants to experiment with a willing male and a couple, husband and wife who want to put him between them." She smiled at the small lizard and winked at him. "Seems that you've become rather popular suddenly." She didn't comment on the fact that his body was already showing signs of arousal just from hearing what people wanted to do with him.

Gabriel's eyes widened and he looked from Smoke to the bouncer and back again. "Y-you can't be serious... How? When?" He looked pleadingly at Juno as if to make sure she wasn't pulling his tail.

Juno looked at the tablet once more. "All of them were appointments set during your performance by Jerome. If you have a complaint about any of them you'll need to speak to him."

Smoke by this time was sorting the bills on the dressing table into two stacks, which made him whistle when he finished with the final count. "Gabriel you are a gold mine!" He turned and stared at the lizard with an open mouth.

Gabe backed up a few steps at the look on Smoke's face. "What? What did I do?" He looked from Juno to Smoke and back once more.

Smoke broke into a wide grin and pulled the lizard into his arms lifting the smaller man and spinning him around. "You just made us more than twice in tips what I usually get working with Starlight!"
