Saturday, June 6th, 2015

Not too long after the clock on Lizzy's wall chimed seven o'clock, Alex's nose began to tickle. Luckily for Alex, hir tongue was covered in keratin barbs, just like that of a feral feline's. Under a microscope, it looked just like velcro, and was perfect for scratching any itches it could reach. And so, with a minimum of effort, shi stuck hir tongue out and wiped it across the tip of hir nose.

Elizabeth pulled the tiny toy tiger plush away from Alex's nose just in time, smiling. After a moment, she gently rubbed it against Alex's nose yet again...and received the same response. The third time, Alex finally opened hir eyes.

"Good morning, sleepy kitty. Sleep well?" the stoat asked.

Alex yawned, showing off a mouth full of sharp teeth and a pair of formidable bicuspids. Not quite as sharp as Lizzy's, but substantially larger...as one would expect of a tiger. "Mmm, yeah."

"Good," Lizzy said with a smile. "So whatcha wanna do today? Play minecraft?"

Alex blinked a few times. "I dunno. Watch a movie, maybe. Actually...do you still have that colored pencil set?"

Elizabeth nodded. "In the computer desk drawer. With the markers and crayons and stuff."

"I kind of want to draw. Maybe after breakfast, you can play minecraft while I draw. Then when we get bored we can watch a movie. Then you need to do your swimming lessons. I think it'll be time for lunch then."

Lizzy smiled. "I like that plan. But first, we need to take a bath. And you need to get that thing off," she said, pointing down towards Alex's waist.

Alex blinked, following her finger until shi saw the bright red condom bunched at the tip of hir sheath. Without thinking, shi reached down with a pair of claws and snagged it, pulling it off...along with a small clump of matted fur.

On the floor below them, a ferret, a stoat, and a canine were all suddenly awakened by one sharp yelp followed by an extended chorus of "Ow, ow, ow, ow!"

=^.^=

Morning came and went. Lizzy, as usual, had made progress (very slight progress) with her lap times, and Alex helped Charlotte make lunch while the little stoat washed the chlorine from her fur. Not too much later, the entire family, plus Alex and Charlotte were sitting around the dining room table for lunch.

Charlotte sat down, having taken the bandages off her face that morning. Luckily, she didn't have any visible scars from the minor surgery they'd done to rearrange the broken bones in her muzzle.

"Thanks Charlotte," Terrence said as he sat down, the last one to join them at the table.

"Thank Alex; shi did most of the work," the teenaged doberman replied, pointing with a spoon in the tiger's direction.

Alex blushed and looked down at the table in front of hir, a bit shy. "It was nothing."

"It's delicious!" Elizabeth said through a mouthful of grilled cheese sandwich. The little stoat felt like she was starving, as usual after her daily swims.

"Elizabeth, no talking with your mouth full. You know better," Julia scolded mildly. Then she dipped the grilled cheese in the cup of tomato basil soup and took a bite as well. After a second she raised her eyebrows. "This is really good, actually."

Not wanting to be left out, Terrence also took a bite after dipping his sandwich. "Very good indeed," he said once he'd swallowed. "It's got a bit of a curry flavor. Is this a new recipe?" he asked, raising his eyebrows in Charlotte's direction.

"Yes. It's not mine though. I just did the grilled cheese sandwiches. The soup is all hirs," the doberman girl said, pointing at the tiger cub again.

This time Alex blushed, "It's not that hard. Six tomatoes, one onion, some chicken stock, garlic, a bit of ginger, curry powder and brown sugar, coconut milk and some basil leaves. Mom makes it with chili peppers and pepper flakes, but I know some of you don't like hot stuff, so... Oh, and I had to use regular basil instead of thai basil."

"Thank you," Julia said. "I'm glad you decided not to add the chili peppers."

Charlotte was very thankful as well: she could handle chili peppers, but to her they just ruined the flavors. Cautiously, the teenaged doberman took a sip of the soup, and practically swooned. After a week of imitation-chocolate-and-sawdust-flavored protein shakes, the soup tasted better than anything she could possibly have imagined. She shivered and sighed in delight, then took another sip.

After a minute or so of the quiet clink of silverware, Julia spoke up. "So...Terrence and I are going shopping after lunch. We've got to get stuff for the barbeque this evening. Charlotte, would you mind watching them for a bit?"

Charlotte shook her head. "Not at all. Though... could I talk to you for a moment before you leave?"

Julia nodded, and the rest of them continued eating in relative silence. After another minute or two, Terrence picked up his napkin and wiped his lips. "Ahh, that was delicious. Thank you, Alex and Charlotte. I'll be back down in a bit. Need to go get my wallet and keys before we leave."

Almost as one, the two adults stood up, taking their dishes to the kitchen. Charlotte followed them.

"So, what's up?", Julia asked as she put the dishes in the dishwasher while Terrence went upstairs.

"Sooo... God, this is so awkward... can we go into the garage to talk?"

Julia nodded, then unlocked the security panel next to the garage door and pulled the door open and stepped out. Charlotte followed, pulling the door closed behind her.

"Okay, so...Were you actually serious about letting those two mate with each other?" Charlotte asked with a very serious tone. "Because they... um... did. Last night."

Julia blinked, then frowned. "Oh? Well... We did tell Elizabeth that she could, as long as they used condoms. Did they?" she asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Well...yes. I mean...I think so. I asked them if they were using condoms. I just wanted to make absolutely sure you two were okay with it. Like absolutely, totally, completely, perfectly fine with the fact that two_nine-year-old cubs_...", she said, stressing their ages, "...are probably going to screw each other into insensibility every chance they get."

Julia looked a bit defensive at that. "Well, to be honest I wasn't entirely comfortable with it at first, but ...it seems hypocritical to tell Elizabeth that she can't have sex with her best friend when she_has_ to have sex with her father practically every night for half the year." she said, looking a bit sad.

"But you're comfortable with it now?" Charlotte asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Well...yes, I suppose that I am. Why? Does it bother you that much?"

"Not really," Charlotte said. "It's just that I've never brought up sex with Lizzy before cause you asked me not to. But... well... Last night when I took some anime DVDs up to Lizzy's room to loan them to Alex, shi was under the covers, but hir clothes were on the ground. So... I asked to make sure they had condoms, cause I_know_you all don't use them."

Julia smiled. "No need to apologize, dear. You did good there. I suppose since the cat's out of the bag, so to speak, there's no real need to keep it a secret from her that you know about her medical condition. She's old enough now to know that she shouldn't tell anyone else about it...especially after this last two weeks."

"Yeah. Anyway, what I really wanted to get at was... should I allow them to mate if I'm watching them for you? Like...no babysitter in their right mind would want to take that risk."

"If you don't feel comfortable with it, then no, of course not, dear. I don't want you to do anything you're uncomfortable with."

"Okay. And...were you serious about letting me invite Hikari over as long as I clear it with you all first?"

"Of course! He seems like a fairly respectable boy."

"Umm...could I invite him over for next weekend, since school's out?" Charlotte asked hesitantly.

"Certainly. School ends on Wednesday, and I'm going to be taking Elizabeth over to Alexandrea's on Friday morning, and they'll be staying over there until Sunday, so you're welcome to have him over any time Friday or Saturday."

Charlotte's mood suddenly soared. Now she just had to work up the courage to ask the skinny monkey out. Speaking of going out..."Also, would it be possible if I could sign up for the driver's ed course over the summer? And maybe go shopping for cars?"

"Uh...Of course. The driver's ed courses are taught at the high school, so you can ride your bike over there. As for the cars...once you've completed driver's ed, then I'm sure either Terrence or I could drive you to a few car dealers. You might want to do some research on what kind of car you want though before you get it. Terrence has a Consumer Reports subscription that you can use. That way you'll know about what you should pay, whether you get it used or new, and how well it's rated."

Charlotte smiled, almost giddy. "Thanks!"

"You're welcome, dear," Julia said as the door opened and Terrence stepped in.

"Ready, Angel?", he asked walking across the garage to his blue BMW.

"Anything else?" Julia turned to ask the teenaged doberman.

"Nope. Be safe," she replied, then watched as the older stoat joined her husband in his car.

An hour later, Charlotte sighed. To be honest, the Disney movies weren't that bad, but Elizabeth must have watched Frozen three or four times already; she had all the lyrics down pat. Charlotte, on the other paw, was getting very, very tired of it. She glanced over at the two cubs sitting on the couch next to her...and smiled. They'd both fallen asleep watching it, curled up against each other. Chances were they'd probably nap for at least another hour. Taking a few seconds to turn off the movie player, she went upstairs to snag her laptop, then rejoined the sleeping cubs in the living room in case they awoke.

=^.^=

David pulled his SUV up in front of the Stouffer's residence. He hesitated to call it a mansion, though it came awfully close. Charlotte was standing out front, wearing a skirt and blouse instead of her usual maid outfit. Raenne opened the car door and stepped out while he set the parking brake and turned the car off.

"Hi Charlotte," he heard his wife say as he stepped out as well, popping the trunk open.

"Hello Mrs. Andreyev. Do you two need any help getting anything out?"

"Nope, we've got it," David said as he stepped around the car, taking a pair of bowls out of the trunk while his wife grabbed two six-packs of beer and shut the trunk.

"How's your head doing, Charlotte?" Raenne asked as they walked up the steps to the front porch.

"Better, though still tender. The surgeon's going to have to take the pins out sometime in another five weeks or so, and put in some false teeth. My two front teeth were shattered, and my left bicuspid cracked, in addition to the broken nasal cavity."

"Ouch," David said, visibly wincing.

"It's not so bad," she replied, closing the door behind them as they entered the foyer. "They gave me plenty of pain meds. I'll still be on a mostly liquid diet for the next few weeks, though," she continued as she led the two tall tigers through the entertainment room and into the kitchen where the two cubs were putting together a salad.

"Hi Mom, Dad!" Alex said as they walked in. "We'll be eating out on the back patio. Mr. and Mrs. Stouffer are already out there. We're almost done making the salad."

"Sounds good," Raenne said, pulling open the glass door on the far side of the kitchen and stepping out onto the cement patio that surrounded the pool in the Stouffer's back yard.

"David, Raenne, so good to see you," Terrence said, turning to greet them. He set the pair of tongs down next to the grill and closed the lid. "Set those down on the table there," the ferret added when he saw the bowls and beverages they carried, pointing at a long table that Julia was stacking paper plates and plastic cups on. "Take a seat at either of the other two tables. It'll probably be another five minutes before the hot dogs and hamburgers are done."

The two tigers had barely sat down when the glass door opened again and Elizabeth came out carrying a huge salad bowl, Alex hopping along behind her on hir crutches. Charlotte came up last, carrying a jug of tea and another of lemonade.

For the next several minutes all of them made small-talk, discussing recent events, until eventually the conversation made it's way to what had happened at school.

"Forgive me for being nosy," Terrence said, turning to Alex, "but what exactly was it that started that whole altercation between you and those two boys? All I know is that you all got into some kind of fight and one of them...er...debagged you."

Alex looked puzzled. "What's debagged mean?"

"Sorry. I mean, pulled your clothes off."

Alex looked down, ears flat. "I...um...I was daydreaming. I guess I got an erection, and Robert spotted it. Everyone thought I was a girl at that point, so he started calling me a bunch of names. Lizzy here started defending me, and they both started yelling. That's when everyone else started showing up, including that big kid that I don't know. They started throwing Lizzy around, and then rob...robert..." Alex stopped, choking up.

"It's okay, Alex," David said resting one big paw on hir shoulder. "We already know the rest of it. I'm just glad you and Elizabeth weren't hurt worse, getting thrown around by a pair of boys like that."

"Yes, well... a sprained wrist isn't exactly nothing, but yes, it could have been much worse," Terrence said, using tongs to take the hamburger patties off the grill. "I'm glad you managed to convince Julia to press charges. Boys like that need to learn that bullying isn't okay, and the schools these days are doing practically nothing to stop it. We can talk about that later though; the burgers are done."

=^.^=

Nearly a half hour later, Raenne leaned against the back of the chair and took a sip of her beer, watching Charlotte enter the house out of the corner of her eye. After the glass door closed, she asked the question she'd been waiting to ask for the past week or so.

"So...When did Elizabeth's medical issues start? More importantly, was there anything else that you could have done?"

Terrence and Julia glanced at each other. Eventually Julia spoke up.

"It started about three months after she was born. At first I thought it was simply a rash that wouldn't go away. We took her to the clinic three different times and got three different opinions, all of which were that it was a rash as well. By the time a month had passed, we started noticing that she was getting very lethargic and took her in again. The first doctor prescribed vitamin supplements...the second time we went in, we lucked out and got Dr. Nez as her physician. Dr. Nez ran some blood tests and realized she was anemic and that her estrogen levels were off the charts. She was suffering from estrogen toxicity. He put two and two together and realized she had a combination of two rare heritage traits. One unique to stoats, causing her to enter seasonal estrus regardless of her age, and another unique to ferrets causing her to develop estrogen toxicity due to extended estrus."

Terrence continued when Julia paused. "That explained the anemia. It also gave us some potential solutions. The first was a chorionic gonadotropin hormone shot which has a chance of working, but that chance diminishes over time. We tried that. Twice. Because the first four doctors didn't have a clue what they were dealing with, Elizabeth had been in estrus for over a month and a half by the time Dr. Nez did her bloodwork. It was too late. So...they did a crossmatch on her to determine her blood type, and found a match with some blood stored up at OHSU. The did an immediate transfusion, which barely saved her life. Unfortunately, it didn't fix the cause of the problem. The only other two options were a hysterectomy or to have her inseminated. Since she was already anemic, the hysterectomy wasn't an option. She would most likely die on the operating table."

"So you tried having her inseminated?" Raenne asked.

"Yes. There were complications with that too, unfortunately. We still don't understand the precise combination of things that are necessary to trigger induced ovulation in ferrets, but we eventually found one that worked. Thank God, cause if we hadn't, you wouldn't be here today, princess," Terrence said, reaching over and patting his daughter's shoulder. "I wound up getting a vasectomy immediately afterwards since we knew it would come back next season. That turned out to be a good thing when Elizabeth here went right back into heat less than a week later. Apparently the seasonal estrus from her stoat heritage trait takes precedence over the induced ovulation from her ferret heritage. Unfortunately, the solution we found isn't a good long term solution. Which is why I convinced a few of my fellow college alumni and fraternity members to found Pacific Biotek."

They were all quiet for a bit, mulling that over, at least until Alex broke the silence.

"What about getting Elizabeth an IUD?"

Terrence tilted his head slightly. "Well, that would prevent Elizabeth from getting pregnant, but she still has to be mated fairly often to keep her estrogen levels in check... and where did you hear about IUDs?", he asked glancing at David and Raenne.

Alex hesitated, glancing back at hir mom.

"It's okay," Raenne said, nodding back.

"Dr. Nez told us about them, and I got one. It's so that I don't get pregnant," Alex said, reassured that it was okay to discuss.

"Shi started having nocturnal emissions, and if shi starts experimenting with boys as well," Raenne interjected, "and we were worried that shi might accidentally..." she let the sentence trail off, shrugging.

"Oh," both Terrence and Julia said, comprehension dawning.

"I didn't know you knew Dr. Nez," Julia said. "He's been enormously helpful. If it hadn't been for him, well...you already know."

"Anyway, to get back on topic," Terrence continued, "I founded Pacific Biotek because I wanted to see if there were any other alternatives. I was worried what would happen to Elizabeth if I...well...if something happened to me. I was also worried she might develop a dependency on me, and wouldn't try seeking companionship with others later in life. Apparently that's a potential problem with children who are incest survivors. I guess that's one of the reasons I'm not as opposed to these two...well...playing with each other."

Both David and Raenne glanced at each other. Neither of them had considered that particular viewpoint.

"What about you two?", Julia asked. "Why did you decide not to opt for gender assignment surgery?"

Raenne took a deep breath. "I don't exactly know. Certainly the doctors and nurses who were present during hir birth recommended it. Maybe it was my own past that made me decide against it. I don't much like people making decisions for me, and I guess I didn't want to make such a drastic decision for hir. That turned out to be a good thing, I think. Once I'd done some research I found that a fairly substantial percentage of hermaphrodites that have gender assignment surgery wind up with gender dysphoria later in life."

"Father?" Elizabeth asked quietly after the adults went quiet once again. "Can I get another hamburger? I'm still hungry."

"Absolutely, princess." Terrence said, pointing at the table over by the grill. "Everything's right there on the table."

"Can I get another one too?" Alex asked."They were really good."

"Of course!"

=^.^=

It was starting to grow dark by the time they'd decided to call it an evening. David put the now empty potato and macaroni salad bowls in the back of the SUV and shut the trunk, walking around to the driver's side door. Alex was still waving from the back seat at the Stouffers standing on the front porch as he pulled out of their driveway and onto the road that ran through the neighborhood.

"So, did you have fun, love?" David asked.

"Yup! We watched a few movies, played some video games and stuff. Oh, and I drew a picture for you two," Alex said, digging through hir backpack. Then shi passed a piece of paper to Raenne, who took the paper and turned on the cabin light.

"My God, Alex, this is beautiful," Raenne said, holding the piece of paper out. Alex had drawn a remarkably detailed picture of a small town nestled in a valley between two snow-covered mountain ranges, with a river running through the middle of town into a small lake. There were literally hundreds of tiny buildings dotting the landscape, and thousands of tiny trees, all dusted with snow.

"Where is that?" David asked, glancing at the piece of art before going back to concentrating on driving.

"I dunno. It just popped into my head this morning."

"Well, that's an amazingly detailed piece of art there. I don't think I've ever drawn anything half that good," Raenne said. "Do you mind if I have it framed?"

"Not at all," Alex said, zipping up hir backpack and leaning against the car seat as hir mom turned the cabin light off.

"Do you have any homework you need to do for the weekend?" David asked.

"Not really," the little tigress said, pulling hir tail up against hir chest and idly brushing the tip against hir chin. "We've got some tests though next week, and Mrs. Eaglantine gave us a few review sheets."

"Hmm. Once we get home, why don't you take a bit of time to work on the review sheets while your mom and I do our evening exercises?"

"Okay," Alex replied, staring out the window into the evening gloom while absently playing with hir tail-tip.

=^.^=

Terrence waited on the front porch with his wife and daughter as they watched the Andreyev family leave in their SUV. A few seconds later, they were out of view and they all stepped back inside. Elizabeth hopped up the stairs, most likely heading up to her room while he and Julia went through the living room to the kitchen to clean up a bit. There was remarkably little to do except make sure all the plastic cups and paper plates were stuffed into a trash can.

As they worked, Terrence voiced something that had been on his mind for an hour or two now. "Angel? Did they seem...odd to you at all? Like they were hiding something?"

Julia blinked, looking at him from across the kitchen. "No, not that I saw. Why?"

"Well, it was just a few things that sort of added up. They didn't seem distraught at all by the fact that we're having sex with our daughter. Not even when we told them how young Elizabeth was when her issues started. Also, I think it's really weird that Alex has an IUD, since cases of auto-insemination among hermaphrodites are absurdly rare, and almost always deliberate."

"Well," Julia said, pondering, "They have had over a week to get used to Elizabeth's medical condition, though I don't know if they knew we had to start treating her as young as we did. And getting an IUD certainly is a valid way to ensure that your kid doesn't accidentally knock hirself up."

"I don't know. The fact that Alex didn't want to talk about it without hir mom's permission, and that hir mom gave the reason why makes me suspicious. So does the fact that Raenne pressured_me_into allowing the two cubs to have sex in the first place. And did you see the glance that David and Raenne gave each other when I mentioned incest survivors and dependency?"

"No, I didn't see it...and to be honest I think you're being paranoid, Terry," Julia said, dumping the last of the plates into a garbage bag.

"Hmm..." Terrence said, rubbing his chin. "Maybe you're right."

But no matter how much he tried to put it out of his mind, Terrence couldn't. It was just too many coincidences. He couldn't shake the feeling that the Andreyevs were having sex with their daughter too.

=^.^=

About an hour later, Raenne tapped on the doorframe, poking her head into Alex's room. "Hey kiddo. How are those review sheets coming?"

Alex put hir pencil down and looked up. "All done. I'm just doodling right now."

Raenne stepped in, walking over to the desk. "You haven't drawn anything in months, and suddenly you're an artist again," she said, eyeing the sketch of Lizzy that Alex had started. It wasn't all that detailed yet, but the proportions were spot on...enough that she instantly knew who Alex was drawing. "When did you get to be so good? You were drawing stick figures two years ago."

Alex shrugged. "I dunno. I think it's 'cause of Danny. Before spring break started, he showed me this trick where you draw what you see, not what you're trying to draw. Oh, and you start with really soft lines until you get the sizes right."

"Huh. That makes sense. Anyway, I'm going to take a bath. Your dad's downstairs watching TV, if you want to join him," she said, bending down to give Alex a kiss.

"Umm...I'll just stay up here, I think. Finish drawing and maybe play some games."

"Okay, love," Raenne said, padding out of the room.

A minute later, Alex heard the faint sound of water running, and everything went quiet again except for the scratching of graphite on paper. Time seemed to fly as shi continued to fill in the details on Elizabeth's portrait, periodically checking the photo shi was referencing on hir phone.

Shi was just about finished drawing Elizabeth's eyes when shi heard the full-body fur dryer running in the master bathroom. They were kind of like small shower stalls that blew hot air all over you, and were very, very noisy. Noisy enough that it broke hir concentration. Blinking, shi set down the pencil, stood up, and grabbed hir crutches.

Raenne had just stepped out of the fur drying unit, when she heard knocking on the bathroom door. Puzzled, she walked over and cracked the door open, wondering why her husband couldn't wait until she'd brushed her fur out and gotten some clothes on first. She raised an eyebrow to see Alex standing just outside. "What's up, kiddo?"

Alex held up the broad brush in hir hand. "Want me to do your fur?"

Raenne blinked; wondering if this was going to become a regular occurrence. "Umm...sure, I guess," she said, pulling the door open.

=^.^=

David yawned, flipping off the television. By now his wife should be done with her shower, and he was yearning for one himself. It had been a long day. Between housekeeping chores, shopping, the barbeque with the Stouffers, and finishing it all up with an hour of martial arts, he was ready to head to bed.

The floorboards in the hallway creaked slightly under his weight as he walked towards the stairs. The house seemed remarkably quiet as he padded up to the second floor. Only once he reached the top did he hear the slight murmur of conversation from the master bedroom.

He paused at the doorway, looking in. His wife was naked, leaning up against the headboard of their bed and had one arm held loosely around Alex's shoulders. Alex was lying next to her, idly toying with the tip of hir tail, still wearing hir tee-shirt and skirt.

"Hi, dad," Alex said when shi noticed him standing in the doorway.

"Hey, you two. Hope I'm not interrupting anything."

"No, not really. Mom and I were discussing why Robert got so upset. She thinks he might have had a crush on me before he realized I was a herm."

David pursed his lips slightly. That was definitely a possibility. If he'd had a crush on someone he thought was a girl and they turned out not to be, he'd probably be pretty upset. Still, that was no excuse for tearing someone's underpants off in front of a bunch of other kids. "Maybe. That doesn't excuse what he did though. Anyway, I'm going to rinse off. I'll be out in five minutes," he said, ducking into the bathroom.

True to his word, he stepped out of the bathroom just over five minutes later, fur still frizzy from the fur dryer. He figured that since his wife hadn't bothered with clothes, there wasn't much point in him bothering with them either.

"Where'd Alex go?" he asked, glancing at the bed. Raenne was lying by herself now under the covers, flipping through a catalog of martial arts equipment.

"Getting ready for-," she started to say, turning the page.

"Mom?!_Do I _still have to wear clothes to bed?" Alex asked loudly from hir room.

Raenne looked up from her catalog, glancing at David.

David glanced down the hall towards Alex's room. Alex was standing in hir closet in the far side of hir room, in the process of taking off hir shirt and clothes. He shrugged. "I don't mind."

"Of course you don't mind," Raenne said, rolling her eyes. "No, love," she said loudly. "I guess you don't have to if you don't want to."

David threw back the covers and lay down, sighing as his head hit the pillow and he started to relax. It was strange how things had changed so much in the past week.

After a minute, Alex appeared in the doorway. It was strange, he thought to himself, how easily hir appearance could go from totally feminine to totally masculine. With a baby-doll tee and a skirt, shi looked like every other girl hir age. But without any clothes on, shi was nothing but whipcord and muscle, with barely a trace of femininity. Hell, shi actually looked more masculine than he had at that age. Once again, he made a mental note to make sure shi ate more.

Once Alex reached the bed, shi dropped the crutches on the floor and crawled up onto the bed between them. After pulling down the covers and laying down, shi tugged the covers back up to hir waist and sighed, much like he had.

Raenne flipped to the next page in the catalog, then snagged a marker from the bedside table and circled something. For a minute the room was quiet, except for their quiet breathing, and the whisper of the air conditioning system.

"Mom? My nipples feel weird," Alex said bringing up one paw and gently rubbing hir chest.

"How so?"

"I dunno...they feel weird. Like, slightly sore. Like there's a tiny lump under them," shi said, now using both paws to feel them.

Raenne finally put the magazine down on the nightstand and looked over. "Well, you_are_ going through puberty, love. Your breasts are probably starting to grow. They usually start growing anywhere from age 8 to 12, and you're going to be turning 10 in a few months, so they're coming in right on time. Your nipples will probably feel sore off and on for the next couple of months, and look kind of funny. After that they should start looking like real breasts. And that means you'll need bras as well."

"Really?" Alex asked, wide eyed. "You mean I'm going to have boobs like yours next year?"

Raenne laughed at the excitement in her daughter's voice. "Not quite, kiddo. It'll take a few years. Probably not until you're in your mid teens. Growing takes time, after all."

"Aww," Alex sighed, disappointed. Shi'd been looking forward to having boobs like mom's.

"Don't feel bad, kiddo," David said, turning his head slightly, and leaning over to give Alex a peck on the cheek. "You're beautiful just the way you are."

Rolling back over, David hit the switch on the lamp on his nightstand. Raenne picked up her catalog and flipped it open again. For a few more minutes they were quiet, except for the sound of pages turning periodically. David was almost ready to doze off when Alex spoke up again.

"I'm not keeping you from mating, am I?"

Raenne snorted, trying to keep back her laughter while David answered.

"Uhh...no, love. We mated when you were over at Lizzy's last night. And again this morning, and just after lunch..."

"Oh," shi said after a moment. "I guess you're probably too tired to mate with me then."

At that, Raenne put her catalog down again. "Do you want to?"

"Well...Lizzy and I fell asleep watching a movie after lunch, so I'm not really sleepy right now, and I think it would help...or I could got get some warm milk..."

"Hmm...how about I get you some warm milk then," Raenne offered, "and after that we can have sex?"

"Okay! Thanks, mom."

Raenne quickly threw back the covers, rolling off the bad and trotting downstairs.

"So, what did you want to do, hmm?" David asked rolling onto his side. In the few seconds since Alex had mentioned sex his length had already started swelling in anticipation.

"Well, umm...could you mate with me again? After that I'd like to mate with mom again, if she's okay with that."

"I'm sure she will be, love. Here, why don't you come sit on the edge of the bed and I'll eat... I mean, I'll lick you until you're ready," he said, throwing back the covers and rolling off the side of the bed.

"Okay," Alex replied, also throwing off the covers. The little tigress scooted to the edge of the bed where hir father was kneeling on the floor.

"Lay on your back, and relax," David said, taking hir legs and tugging hir a bit further before draping hir legs over his shoulders.

Alex did just that, laying back and relaxing as hir father used one hand to lift hir fuzzy sack out of the way. Alex's hidden feminine treasure was slightly swollen, a thin line of glistening pink almost hidden between two fluffy white-furred labia. He used his other hand to spread hir lips slightly, looking at hir pretty pink pussy. He wished he could take a photo of it. Leaning forward he took a quick sniff before pressing his broad nose just under hir fuzzy sack, firmly against hir clit. Shi smelled slightly different than last time. The musky scent of hir arousal had faint undertones of cinnamon and basil, strangely enough.

He felt hir twitch as his cold nose sent a spark through hir nervous system, then wet his tongue and ran it between hir slit, tracing every tiny detail of hir inner labia. Once he heard hir begin to purr, he pressed his tongue further inside hir, searching for the hir g-spot.

Over and over he ran his tongue around hir insides, tasting every last surface he could reach, then pulling back to run the tip of his tongue around hir inner labia and clit before pressing back inside to stimulate hir g-spot. Then he did it all over again. It was less than a minute before Alex began gasping. The next time he ran his rough tongue over hir clit, shi started keening and hir legs went tight around his head as shi tensed up and started twitching in orgasm.

"Wow. You two didn't waste much time getting started," Raenne said from the doorway, holding a mug in her hands. She walked over and sat down next to Alex and waited until shi stopped twitching before helping hir sit upright while David pulled hir legs off his shoulders. "Here you go, kiddo," she said, handing Alex the mug of warm milk.

Once again, Raenne marvelled at how large Alex's dick was for a nine-year-old. Easily five inches long, when she wouldn't have expected it to be half that size. Hell, it was larger than some full-grown feline men's dicks that she'd seen. Shi definitely took after hir dad. It actually made Raenne slightly sad, since Alex would probably continue to grow, and probably become uncomfortably large just like hir dad.

Alex sat, panting for a bit before looking down at the mug, and beyond that, at hir father kneeling in front of hir. "Wow. Umm...Thank you. Both of you."

David smiled, licking hir juices off his nose and lips. "Was that enough for one night, or did you want to play some more?"

"Yes! Oh, mommy, after daddy mates with me, can I mate with you again?"

"Sure, kiddo. And you can just say 'have sex' or 'make love' instead of 'mating'. Calling it 'mating' is correct, but it sounds a little odd.

"Oh...Okay," Alex said, taking taking a few gulps of warm milk. Once it was mostly finished shi tilted hir head back and drained the rest. Meanwhile, David had snagged the jar of coconut oil from his nightstand, unscrewed the lid, and scooped out a gob of it.

"Lay back again, love," he said, motioning with the aforementioned finger.

Alex handed the mug back to hir mom and leaned back as hir father lifted hir balls out of the way and pressed his finger inside hir. Feeling the slightly gritty, gooey stuff melt inside of hir was a decidedly strange experience.

Raenne got up and walked over to the other side of the bed, setting the mug down on the nightstand there before laying back down as Alex scooted back onto the bed. Shi looked a bit curious as David stood and started stacking pillows against the headboard.

"What are you doing?", shi asked.

"Making something to lean against. I kind of wanted to try something, and I think you might like it."

"Umm...okay," Alex said, watching as he sat down and leaned back against the small stack of pillows. His dick was standing straight up, glistening. He'd probably used some lube on himself as well.

"Here, just sit on my lap and lean your back against my chest."

"Ohhh!" Alex said, comprehension dawning. "Thanks, dad," she said leaning over and giving him a kiss, which he returned with a smile. As shi crawled over, he wrapped his broad paws around her waist and lifted hir over his own. Spreading hir legs wide and lifting hir balls out of the way, shi took hold of his penis and lined the tip up with the entrance to hir flower as hir father slowly lowered hir onto his lap.

Both of them held their breath as his tip touched hir slippery folds and slowly began to slide into hir. With the copious lubrication, the first inch of his length went into hir with no difficulty at all. After that though, shi was absurdly tight around him.

Alex did hir best to relax, breathing deeply and practically going limp against hir father's broad chest, but it still took time for hir insides to stretch wide enough to accommodate him. At least hir flower didn't sting this time as shi slowly descended further and further along his length. Shi was definitely being stretched to hir absolute limit though; shi could feel every single tiny bump on his penis rubbing against the inside of hir tightly stretched passage.

With as much lube as he'd used, there was no need to do anything but wait as hir vaginal walls stretched around him and gravity pulled hir further down.He kept a tight grip on hir waist just in case; the last thing he wanted to do was let hir slip and tear something. It took well over a minute before David's length hit the very end of his daughter's passage.

Alex took a deep breath as shi felt his tip touch that sensitive spot at the very end. After the last couple of times, shi was well aware that trying to take any more would be painful. "Okay, that's it. Just...give me a few moments."

"Take as long as you want, love," David said, holding hir steady. Hir pussy was so tight around him that it was a wonder he could fit in hir at all. Somehow...somehow this time was different than the last couple of times. The first time had felt like a drug-induced hallucination, and the second time he'd been so horny that his dick had done all the thinking for him. This time he wasn't horny at all after the marathon fuck session he and his wife had started last night and finished earlier this morning.

Somehow he felt_closer_ to Alex. Kind of like he did when they all cuddled together on the couch watching movies. It was a weird feeling to have while having sex. Almost like that after-sex glow, and the feeling of closeness and intimacy it brought. He glanced to the side, looking at his wife. He kind of wish she was cuddling up against him right now as well.

"Want a distraction?" Raenne asked, noticing his glance and crawling over next to them. The sight of Alex's not-so-little cock sticking straight up as shi sat on hir father's lap was too tempting to ignore.

"Uhh...yes. Please." Alex said, waiting for the tingly stretching feeling to fade.

Raenne gave Alex a quick peck on the cheek, then bent down over hir waist, sniffing slightly before wrapping her mouth around Alex's dick. She was somewhat surprised at the faint scent of basil and cinnamon, mingled with the slight smell of masculine musk and feminine arousal. At least shi tasted clean.

Alex gasped slightly, then sighed as shi felt hir mom's lips around hir length, followed by her tongue. Mom's tongue wasn't nearly as rough as dad's was, and the feel of it as she licked up along the sides of hir penis and around the tip was absolutely amazing. Just as wonderful as Elizabeth's, though very different: mom's tongue was much, much wider and longer.

David almost moaned as he felt his daughter's insides tense for a second and then relax as his wife began sucking on their daughter's dick. "Mmm...that definitely helped, love. Good idea."

Raenne didn't say anything, simply bobbing her head up and down, while sucking on Alex's dick like a lollipop. Just like last time, that ever-present discomfort she got from even thinking of giving someone a blow job was just...gone.

Alex relaxed against hir father's chest as the stretching sensation slowly changed to one of being very, very full. Periodically hir dad's shaft would twitch and swell slightly within hir, distracting hir from hir mom's attentions. For the moment, Alex just relaxed and enjoyed the feel of hir mom's mouth around hir shaft.

By the time the stretchy feeling had completely faded, Alex was starting to get that tingling feeling at the base of hir penis. Shi had to admit, hir mom was really, really good with her tongue, and made a mental note to ask mom for tips next time shi was licking dad. Right now though.. "Mom? I think...I'm going to squirt soon."

Raenne pulled back and said "Okay, love," then went back to sucking on Alex's length, curious how hir essence would taste.

David had slowly relaxed his grip on Alex's hips, and once he was sure that shi wouldn't slip any further down, he moved his hands up around hir tummy, idly running his claws through hir fur. A few seconds later, shi started purring. As far as he could tell, shi was about as relaxed as shi was going to get. He was wrong though. Another fifteen seconds later, Alex's insides began to flutter around his length and suddenly shi clenched, hard.

Alex moaned as hir testes pulled up tight and hir penis began to twitch. Suddenly it jerked, hard, and her semen began squirting into hir mom's mouth over and over.

Raenne swallowed a few times, expecting hir to taste bitter and extremely salty, but after a moment she realized it wasn't. At all. If anything it tasted kind of like slightly watery chai tea, with a hint of cinnamon and basil. It had a hint of saltiness to it, but it wasn't overpowering at all. She even let it pool on her tongue a bit, wondering how exactly that was possible. Diet, maybe?

The feel of Alex twitching around his length was intense. He wasn't sure if shi'd had a female orgasm as well as a male one, but he could definitely feel that she was having_something_. Once it started shi'd clenched hard around him, and then gone limp. Limp enough that shi was noticeably looser around his length. Enough so that they could probably start mating without causing hir any discomfort.

Once she was sure Alex was done, Raenne swallowed again, and pulled back, licking the tip of Alex's dick one last time for good measure. Alex lay against hir dad's chest, occasionally twitching, purring, and looking about as relaxed as it was possible for a cat to get.

"Think you're about ready now, love?" David whispered in Alex's ear.

"Mmm-hmm," Alex mumbled, a lazy smile on hir face.

"Kay," he said, wrapping his paws around hir hips again. He raised his knees and planted his feet on the bed for leverage, then began rocking his hips. As he did so, Raenne leaned up against his side, and he gave her a peck on the cheek.

She returned it and snuggled against his side, reaching over with one hand to ruffle the fur on Alex's tummy like he'd been doing.

Lizzy was right: being mated was the best thing ever, she thought as hir father began to pump a bit quicker in and out of hir flower.. The first time had been downright painful at first, and the second time had been uncomfortable, though they'd both been enjoyable in the end. This time, now that shi was totally relaxed, it was fantastic. It wasn't quite as intense as mating with hir boy parts, but it was_way_ more intimate, having someone inside you. Especially someone as big as daddy was.

"Dad? Mom?" shi asked, turning hir head to look at hir mom.

"Yes, love?" David replied, stopping.

"I love you. And thank you for letting me do this with you. It's_way_better than sleeping alone every night."

David felt like his heart would melt. "I love you too, kiddo," he said, kissing the top of hir head.

Raenne gave Alex a kiss as well, touching noses. When she leaned back against her husband again, he resumed rocking his hips, starting out slow again before picking up the pace. Other than Alex's purring and the slight creak of the bed, the room was mostly quiet for the next minute or so.

"Daddy? Can I turn around?"

"Sure, love," David said, stopping for a moment before lifting his daughter off his lap.

Feeling decidedly empty, Alex awkwardly swung one leg around, trying not to step on him. The fact that shi only had one good leg to work with made it remarkably awkward, even with his help. Eventually shi managed though, kneeling over his hips and facing him this time. Shi gave him a kiss, then reached down between hir legs, taking hold of his length and pressing it against hir folds before sitting down. This time, he slid into hir with hardly any effort, and shi lay against his chest for a moment before he started thrusting into hir again.

Alex decided shi really liked this position, lying atop hir father, hugging him while he mated with hir. Shi tilted hir head to the side and rest it against hir collarbone, looking at mom. She looked really content, laying next to them with a slight smile. Their eyes met, and her smile got even wider.

"Getting close?", she asked quietly.

Alex nodded. It was harder to tell when hir female orgasm was going to hit, but shi could definitely feel something coming. As hir father's length continued to rub against hir insides, shi started to get a little anxious. That feeling seemed to build and build, like a spring being coiled tighter and tighter. Finally it hit.

David felt it immediately when Alex finally came. Hir passage clenched hard around his length, and it felt like hir insides rippled around him, trying to draw him deeper. Shi let out a sharp whine and dug hir paws into the fur of his chest. He was already close, and gripped hir waist a bit tighter, pumping into hir a few more times. Just as it felt like shi was finally coming down from hir own climax, his own finally started, and he pulled hir down firmly, pressing his length deep inside hir as it jerked, shooting his essence deep inside hir.

The little tigress moaned as shi felt hir father's semen squirt hard against hir insides over and over, filling hir with sticky, warm fluid. It felt like shi was getting filled like a water balloon. A few seconds later it began to leak back down around his shaft, spilling from hir flower. Shi licked hir lips, intent on the feel of his thick penis twitching inside hir. Once shi was sure he'd finished, shi tilted hir head up and gave him a kiss. "Thank you, daddy."

"You're welcome, love," David said, moving his hands up around hir back in a loose hug. Honestly, he felt like he should be thanking hir instead; he didn't think he'd ever felt closer to hir than he did right now.

They stayed like that for probably a minute, simply enjoying each other's presence. He eventually felt his length soften and eventually slip out of hir, followed by several sticky drops that landed on the fur around his sheath.

Then Raenne leaned up and whispered in his ear. "I've got an idea, love. Do you think maybe you'd be up for a bit of experimentation? I'd love to try having you in my rear while Alex is in my front."

"Are you sure, love?" he asked, turning his head to her.

"Absolutely," she said with a grin. "It'd be_way_ easier than having you in my front. You know how tight I am."

"Yes, I do. Actually, I think you're almost as tight as Alex is," he replied with a slight smile.

"What are you two talking about?", Alex asked with a yawn. After shi was done speaking, shi closed hir eyes, purring.

"Just discussing options. Do you think you'd be up for doing anything else tonight, kiddo?" Raenne asked.

"Uhh...I'd love to, but I-" Alex said, interrupted by yet another yawn, "I think I'm going to fall asleep."

Raenne smiled. "Okay, love. We can try it later then. Maybe in the morning."

Alex didn't say anything, already dozing on hir father's chest.

"Sorry, love," David apologized. "Guess you'll have to wait till morning."

"That's fine," Raenne said, reaching over and turning off her bedside lamp before snagging the covers and pulling them up over the three of them. "I'm still slightly sore from last night," she said leaning up against his side again. "G'night."

"G'night, love," he said, closing his eyes. A minute later all three of them were fast asleep, lulled by Alex's soothing purr.
