Elders and Funerals
#2 of An Honored Promise
Elders and Funerals
Janet slowly woke up as Darken got up and jumped from the bed, he went into the kitchen and as she stood up and stretched saw him leave by pulling a cord on the wall with his teeth opening a panel near the door. She had been wondering how he got in originally till then. She made her self a cup of coffee and watched as he did his morning business marking a tree before he noticed her and went deeper into the woods. She sipped at her coffee and went into the fridge pulling out a left over steak piece from the night before and put it on a plate for him along with a bowl of water. As she sat down with a bowl of oatmeal he came back in and saw the food thanking her as he began to eat.
Janet smiled and patted his rear, "so you're a shy one I never saw a wolf change his behavior because a human was watching before."
Darken choked on his food for a moment his tail going between his legs as he turned around not quite looking up at her, "well umm not all humans know we are intelligent and I am sorry if its weird."
Janet giggled and went back to her oatmeal, "I am just joking Darken I didn't mean to make you nervous. You need to lighten up a bit."
Darken went back to eating, "I'm sorry I am not a good companion, I'm just not used to anyone being nice to me."
Janet smiled and rubbed his back, "It's ok Darken you'll learn as time goes on, by the way have you ever been in a car before?"
"No I haven't I have lived only in the forest," Darken replied looking up.
Well I need to go to my fathers funeral today, did you want to stay here?"
"Well umm, no I would like to come with you I know I am not much help but I should stay at your side," Darken replied.
Janet kneeled down to be face to face with him and smiled, "I have a new rule for you, number four is I want you to do what is comfortable for you, I don't want you to come if your uncomfortable coming with me."
Darken rubbed his muzzle against her hand and licked it for a second before pulling his muzzle back, "no I would be honored if you want me to come to an honored member of your families death ceremony. I am not uncomfortable, I just don't want to dishonor you."
Janet smiled, "I know you won't Darken."
Janet dug in the cupboards and found an old large collar and looked back to Darken, "I want you to know that I know this is not needed but in this state if I bring you into public you have to wear this or it could be bad, I hope you won't be angry with me for asking you to wear this."
Darken walked over and sat down stretching his neck up and looking at her with an almost smile, "Of course I won't be mad at you Janet I fully understand and I would be honored for others to think you own me."
Janet slid the collar over his neck and made sure it was loose enough not to bother him as she stood and walked to the door turning off the lights to the cabin. They walked to the car and she opened the passenger side door of her SUV and watched as Darken sniffed at it and eventually went inside sitting on the seat. Janet got in and slowly started the car looking to Darken who was looking a bit nervous.
"Are you ok," she asked.
Darken looked to her and nodded, "I'll be fine thank you Janet, its just a new environment for me."
They drove in relative silence to the funeral and when they arrived they went to the burial site. She met with other more distant family members there along with a few people she didn't know, for some reason she could tell they were werewolves and that they had respect for her. Darken stayed close at her side however and seemed to fear them. She figured he probably wasn't supposed to attend such events without a specific invitation.
The funeral was nice and simple. Janet sat in front of the coffin her hand lightly petting Darkens head, which stayed on her lap the whole time. Everyone shook her hand or hugged her when it ended and then the man she knew her father spoke of came to her and bowed, "I am Elder Tongue, I was a good friend of your father he asked me to seek you out if anything happened to him."
Janet smiled, "I know he told me you would come we can meet in the private room in the funeral home with the others, I will be there shortly."
Elder Tongue smiled, "As you wish Elder-Cag."
Janet shook her head, "I will never get used to being called that, you guys know I'm only twenty-seven right."
"I understand it's a title not an insult," Elder Tongue said as he walked with the others into the funeral home.
Janet walked over to her uncle Sektree and hugged him tightly, as well as her cousin, "Its good to see you two again its been a while," she handed him the two rings, "Dad said you would need these."
Sektree smiled and handed her a locket, "Thank you Janet and this is for you, it was your mothers, I think you should have it, now I know the elders are waiting so why don't you get going," he started to walk away, "oh and a piece of advice since I know you haven't had a formal teacher, The wolf society is one of dominance and aggression, if you want things to go your way never back down."
Janet smiled, "thank you for the advice uncle."
Janet walked into the funeral home and noticed Darken had stopped moving , she looked back and told him it was ok she wanted him in the meeting to which he nervously followed. When they walked into the conference room two figures walked past her bowing and closed the doors staying outside. Elder Tongue stood at the table and looked at Darken, "how dare you walk into a meeting of elders, leave or be punished."
Janet spoke up, "No Darken you will stay, Elder Tongue he is here at my request and I will be learning what I need to from him, I know your customs but I have decided that my protector will also be my teacher when I want him to be."
Elder Tongue bowed with a frustrated look on his face the others looked to each other as Darken sat next to Janet. Janet smiled and made a chair fly to her and sat down in it crossing her legs. She put a hand on Darkens head and scratched him softly, "Now I need to know what it is we are meeting about and I need to know what is needed of me, I want you to know I do not mock your customs or your status, but I was not raised as a Magi and I will need to find my own way of doing things. Please be patient as I learn."
The others started to protest but were quieted by a growl from Elder Tongue as he looked around and then back to Janet, "My apologies for the others we Elders forget sometimes that it is our job to compromise with your clan, it is not an arrangement made very often, but your mother served our packed to the fullest and brought respect and honor to your name that we will never forget and your father was a brother to me, I know you will rise to the same level of friendship."
The rest of the meeting was uneventful, she was told about things that needed to be done for the clans and she listened to a few requests including the needed formation of some caves needed for the continued increase of size of one of the clans. She somehow knew a spell that would solve that problem so she smiled and agreed to help. At the end of the meeting came a subject for which she had not been prepared however.
"Elder Tongue I think we have one more subject for discussion. I am guessing you wanted to leave it for later but considering that Elder-Cag has not been informed of all her duties I remind you it is your place to tell her." Said one of the others.
Elder Tongue sighed, "Ok Rising Claw, Janet there is one more thing you should know about, The strongest male of each of the six clans will be coming to spend a day with you over the course of the next two weeks, it is your duty to pick a male from one of the clans as your mate."
Janet dropped the water in her hand and looked at him, "did you just tell me that part of my duty is to pick a clan member as a husband?"
Elder Tongue looked at her with a serious look, "look Janet I know that a person who was not raised within this circle would find this barbaric, but it is a necessary part of our pact. It ensures sure that we all stay a united family, normally the clans would hold a competition and the winner would be your mate but it was decided that as long as it was a clan member you would be allowed to pick your mate due to the irregularities in your case."
Janet stood and looked around thinking to herself, "how long after I meet all these males do I have to make my choice?"
"Traditionally your mate should be chosen at the age of twenty-one, but your father argued for an exception, you have till the full moon twenty-two days from now." Elder Tongue stated.
Janet said her goodbyes and left with Darken. As they drove back to the cabin she started to cry and Darken asked her to pull over. When she stopped the vehicle he moved over to her and licked the tears from her face.
"Are you ok Janet? I am sorry I didn't tell you I thought Elder Tongue would wait to talk to you personally about your mate ship but I guess the others weren't satisfied with his decision." Darken looked at her.
"Don't worry about me Darken it's just that, I always wanted to fall in love with some one and have kids and now I have twenty-two days to pick someone from a predetermined group of males. At least I have you to talk to about things."
Janet got home and took off her clothes putting on her nightgown and got into bed. She thought about the idea of spending her time with the males of the clans trying to figure out what she would do and then she realized she didn't really know anything about the mating habits of wolves or anything about mating with a werewolf at all and she came to a decision that even her mind screamed might be a bad idea.
She asked Darken to come in and come onto the bed and looked into his eyes, "Darken I need you to teach me a few things but I don't want to force you into it or anything."
Darken tilted his head, "what ever you need Janet I'll be happy to help you."
"Well I need to know about well, how to put this mating stuff," Janet said.
"You mean courting a male or how they will try to court you?" Darken looked back.
"Well actually I mean breeding," Janet said a bit embarrassed.
"Well umm, I don't really know what to say I have mated a few times but I don't know about werewolf mating." Darken answered a little unsure as to what she needed.
Janet smiled softly, "your not a werewolf?"
"well no actually my mother was but my father wasn't I know the gene is in me but I never have been able to transform, but its ok I mean I am happy being me."
Janet slid her hands to his sides, "umm do werewolves mate in human form or werewolf form or wolf form," Janet asked as she slowly pulled him onto his side against him on the bed his back against her as she scratched his tummy."
Darken murred and laid back enjoying the feeling as he answered, "Well I guess it depends, I have heard of them using the human form when mating with wolves and the opposite when mating with humans I guess its more of a matter of what turns on the particular pair."
Janet reached her hand slowly lower as she scratched and then slid it to his sheath softly rubbing, Darken had reached a relaxed state and moaned softly not realizing yet that he was being pleasured. Janet rubbed and petted his side as she continued, "so umm if I wanted to know what it was like would you umm help me?"
Darken tried to sit up when she asked that but was held in place by her hand on his side, her other hand stopped stroking his sheath however, "Umm Janet are you asking me to mate with you?"
Janet blushed deeply, "well yes sort of, I mean I want to explore the sexual side of being with your kind before I am permanently with one of you, for I guess you could call it experience."
Darken looked at her still on his side although she felt a stiffening in his sheath as the tip of his penis poked out, "I don't know what to say, you are the most desirable of all females to us and you actually want to have such intimacy with me? I well I would really enjoy experiencing this with you Janet."
Janet smiled and started to stroke Darkens sheath a bit firmer now making him stiffen a bit and pant, "do wolves find all human woman desirable?"
Darken panted softly, "well not normally, I find you beautiful and I like your soft scent, but most males will want you because you're a magi, they want the status that comes with your mate ship."
Janet looked at him, "Just out of curiosity, and I'm not saying you would think like this but are you doing this because you want me as that kind of trophy?"
Darken looked at her softly, "I understand why you would say that and although that hurt a little bit I can honestly say no Janet, I am not able to take the position as your mate and even if I could I would never feel right doing such a thing for such a reason."
Janet leaned in and kissed Darken on the muzzle lightly and nuzzled him, "I'm sorry this whole thing has been dizzying and I didn't mean to imply you would, you're a really good wolf and I am really happy your willing to do this with me."
Janet asked him to stand on the bed and slid onto her back alongside him. Janet smiled softly and reached up rubbing over Darkens sheath as the other slid up and held his balls softly making him moan as his cock began to show out again, "Darken I'd like you to stay where you are I want to explore you a bit, if I do anything that hurts you or similar please tell me."
Darken moaned softly trying to stay still as he let his cock slide further out, "I think I can do that Janet you feel wonderful."
Janet smiled and began to slide her soft hand down the length of his cock lightly gripping it and stroking causing Darken to pant and thrust lightly, her other hand slid back his sheath allowing his knot to pop free. He groaned as her hand continued to stroke him, her other now holding his knot gently and softly squeezing it. He knew he wouldn't last much longer he needed to warn her it would be rude not to but the pleasure was like nothing he had ever experienced and he was having trouble thinking straight as he nuts swelled wanting release.
Janet on the other hand was fascinated playing with the soft yet hard penis, it was blue and red turning darker as more blood seemed to be flowing to it, it was large at about eight inches including the knot that was hardening almost two inches across. He was leaking a clear fluid, she knew it was pre but it was still very different from a humans. Janet stopped and drew her hands away licking one to see what the flavor was like. It was a little salty but not strong like she expected. Darken whined looking back at her whimpering.
"Why did you stop I was so close and that felt so wonderful," Darken panted.
"Lay down on your side for me and don't worry I want to see you cum," Janet said licking her lips.
Darken laid down and Janet crawled over to his side holding him down with her weight as she moved closer to his still twitching cock. Darken laid his head down on the soft bed relaxing a little as he wondered what she was doing. Janet moved down and took his cock in her hand by the knot holding it up while the other rubbed lightly over his nuts and then she slid it into her mouth suckling lightly on the tip. Darken whined loudly at the sudden pleasure he felt thrusting as much as her position allowed for. He had never felt anything quite like it, his cock slid into a hot moist tunnel that seemed to be pulling on his cock while Janet's hand was driving him insane with the feeling of massaging his knot. Without warning his orgasm hit and he arched trying to thrust deeper into her mouth. Janet got the hint of impending orgasm by the jump in Darkens nut sack but it wasn't in time to stop her from choking as he thrust hard forward driving his cock head into her throat followed by a large quantity of wolf seed. Darken whined and howled as Janet slid his cock from her mouth coughing a bit and then tasting the seed left in his mouth. Darken slowly got up and turned around his cock flailing around as it continued to ooze cum. He began to lick her face and the spot on the bed as he tried to clean his fluids from her.
"I am really sorry Janet I wanted to warn you but I never felt anything like that, you're an amazing female. I never felt anything so amazing before," Darken worriedly apologized.
Janet swallowed the cum in her mouth and looked to him smiling softly, "Its ok I guess this means I am good at pleasuring wolves."
"I would say that who ever becomes your mate is in for an amazing life of breeding."
Janet watched Darken lean down and begin to clean his cock licking it clean followed by his knot, she had always been fascinated by animals mating and now she really wanted to know a bit more, "Umm Darken you have mated with females right?"
Darken looked up at her his knot going down and his cock slowly retreating back into its holder, "well yes a few times."
Janet smiled, "What is the courting ritual if a female wolf wants a male to mount her?"
Darken innocently sat back down, "well I guess it starts with her going into heat, a female will mark an area where she wants to mate, if she wants a specific male she would probably mark his territory leaving her musk to arouse him."
"Ok then what?" Janet continued.
"Well, Normally a female when she is ready will rub against the male she chooses, when he takes interest she will lift her tail and let out a small stream of urine to confirm to him it was her that marked his area and he will try to entice the female by washing her private area making it receptive for his seed. If she is satisfied with his performance she will stay and let him mount her, if she has had a couple heat cycles and been bred more than once by the same male she normally chooses him as her mate for life." Darken finished.
