Alps trod down the quiet city street, 
                    the carriages silent along the lanes, long since abandoned 
                    for the sleep of those who would ride them.  
                    Night time in Diera was little different from twilight 
                    in any other town Alps had been in.  
                    There were still souls about, wandering, getting things 
                    done, coming back from friends, and others with darker intents 
                    to watch for, but aside from that, all was dark and quiet.  
                    Alps hooked a left as he moved more briskly.  
                    He'd been later than he had intended, having not wanted 
                    to turn down the chance to make love to Nita and Misty that 
                    one last time.  He 
                    knew now it would be unlikely he would return, and, at the 
                    very least, he would not return in the same favor in which 
                    he left.  He glanced 
                    up and down the side street he was on.  If Nita had awakened early in the night and 
                    read the letter Alps had left, she would already have the 
                    guards out in the streets, looking for him to bring him back, 
                    of that he was sure, but there was just silence on the worn 
                    down cobblestone streets.  No sounds at all.  He shot 
                    down the alley as fast as his feet would carry him, and then 
                    took a circular path around a pond.  
                    On the other side of the water, which glittered silver 
                    in the moonlight, there was a two story inn.  
                    It was one of the most popular in town, because of 
                    the male servants there, who were trained to tell stories, 
                    give massages, and perform other tasks that a duchess or a 
                    regional matriarch might enjoy.
                  
                    
                     
                    
                    
                              The white lupine opened the door to 
                    the inn, and stepped inside.  
                    There was very little light, as only a few candles 
                    were burning.  There was a wax shortage in town, and, at night, 
                    the inn was not using a lot of light.  
                    However, in the dull light, Alps could still make out 
                    the room.  It was a tavern-style place, with a stage, 
                    and about twenty tables, each able to seat about four.  At one table, two candles flickered, giving 
                    light to two faces.  One, 
                    Alps recognized.  Tia 
                    was sitting with another lupine female, who was turned with 
                    her back to the door, talking to Tia.  
                    Alps' friend saw him immediately, and smiled brightly.  
                    The other female turned around.  
                    Her appearance was something Alps was not used to.  
                    She had white fur, like him, but long black hair, and 
                    ice-blue eyes.  She wore a thick leather coat, which had steel 
                    plates on the shoulders, and she wore leather pants, which 
                    ended at about her knees, but her shins were protected by 
                    silver braces, as were her arms, where the sleeves of the 
                    coat ended.  It was 
                    obviously designed to give her increased mobility in fighting, 
                    while not hindering protection.  
                    The coat was a long one, reaching just past her knees, 
                    but was open at the moment, as she turned to look at Alps.  
                    She wore a black shirt, which seemed to be made of 
                    some kind of tight, but elastic material.  
                    On her hands were fingerless black gloves, with steel 
                    plating over the top of the hand.  The steel plating was covered in needle sharp 
                    slender spikes, each about a half inch long.  On her feet, the lady lupine wore shiny black leather boots, which 
                    were capped off in silvery steel plating over her toes.  On the back of the boots, above the heel, were 
                    sharp looking blades.  Everything 
                    about this girl’s outfit told Alps she was a fighter, and 
                    a resourceful one at that.  
                    He reminded himself to be careful about her.  
                    As he approached, he got a better look at her face.  
                    Slender muzzle, sleek face, soft looking cheeks, and 
                    narrow, but expressive eyes.  Her ears were tall, triangular, and alert.  
                    Her tail, which moved languidly with her thoughts, 
                    was long, soft, full of body, and well groomed.  She was, like Nita and Nidaja, one of the most 
                    beautiful females he'd been privileged to see in his life.  He moved over and bowed silently to her, and 
                    then Tia.
                              ".. I apologize for my ill timing, 
                    Tia.. I got delayed a little bit, and needed to think of my 
                    recourse before acting." he said softly, trying not to 
                    be loud enough to betray a possible secret meeting.
                              "You could have taken a bath first 
                    lover boy, " the unknown female said slowly.  Her voice was deep, and strong.  There was more will in her voice than any mistress 
                    Alps had ever had.  "We 
                    would have waited an extra twenty minutes for that."  Alps thought carefully about what she meant, 
                    and then blushed deeply.  
                    In his trying to get here quickly, he'd forgotten about 
                    the fun he'd had with Misty and Nita.  
                    He positively reeked of sex.  He swallowed softly.
                              "That would be my fault, I fear." 
                    Tia said.  ".. 
                    I didn't think he would not have time to catch a bath after 
                    that."  Alps blinked as Tia shouldered the blame for 
                    his scent, and he canted his head.  
                    He HAD taken a bath after his time with Tia, to avoid 
                    Nita asking him about it.
                              "No, I bathed after that.." 
                    Alps said, not wanting Tia to get in any kind of trouble.  ".. I.. I had to make sure that Queen 
                    Razelle was sleeping soundly before I left." the slave 
                    lupine said softly.  ".. 
                    So.. So I.." he looked down, very embarrassed.  
                    He really was not allowed to talk to anyone about his 
                    unique relationship with the queen.
                              "I see.. So that is her scent.." 
                    the mysterious lady said in her deep, powerful voice.  Her appearance seemed to lend well to that 
                    power too.
                              "Yes.." was Alps' only reply.
                              "Well then.. It would appear lady 
                    Tia was right.. You are close to the royal family.  What sort of leverage do you have over them.. 
                    Alps Sarsis.." Alps shuddered softly.  something about the way she said his name exacted control over him, 
                    and he could not stop his reply.
                              "Very little Mistress.." 
                    he bit his tongue, unable to believe what he'd just said.
                              "I'm not your mistress, Alps." 
                    the lady said calmly.  ".. 
                    You may call me General Castalia, or Azia, if you like."  
                    Alps looked up into Azia's eyes, feeling quite subdued 
                    by them.  This was 
                    obviously a very confident and strong willed individual.
                              "Ahh.. General.. One of the.. 
                    Spirits of Silverlight, I gather?" Alps asked, rather 
                    brazenly.  Azia looked to Tia, rather scoldingly.
                              "I'm sorry, m'lady.." Tia 
                    said, looking down.  "I 
                    really was not certain he would come, and did not want to 
                    give away your presence to an ally of the queen while you 
                    were here.  He knows 
                    very little, other than the problem we face."  Azia, who had really moved very little since 
                    Alps arrived, nodded slowly.
                              "Understandable, Tia Reed.. You 
                    are forgiven."  she 
                    looked up at Alps with a piercing gaze.  
                    "Alps, I am Azia Castalia.  
                    I am the leader of the Spirits of Silverlight."  
                    Alps gritted his teeth, realizing suddenly, that he'd 
                    already gotten far deeper into this than Tia had led him to 
                    believe he would.
                              "I was told.. that Tia did not 
                    have permission to be here, Lady Azia.." Alps said, as 
                    politely as he knew how.
                              "Indeed, she did act without orders.  
                    And she will be punished for that, but I followed her, 
                    and could have stopped her at any time.  It turns out that her intent was sound, though 
                    the results, I fear, were worth very little to us.  If you have no leverage to the royal family, 
                    and cannot force their hand to give defense to Jalana, then 
                    you are useless to us."  
                    Alps felt a pain through his entire body.  
                    Little can hurt a slave emotionally more than being 
                    referred to as useless.  Tia cringed as well.  She 
                    knew what that meant to Alps.
                              "I m not useless." Alps said, 
                    looking down, feeling rather dejected.
                              "Are you not?" Azia said, 
                    with her smooth, flowing voice.
                              "No.. I have greater purpose than 
                    even you, if I commit myself to it." Alps said, icily, 
                    looking up at Azia.  He 
                    was very irritated, with the knowledge that he was about to 
                    give up his wonderful life in Castle Diera, to help Azia's 
                    group, only to be called useless.
                              "Your words condemn you to a very 
                    hard time indeed, Alps Sarsis." Azia said, getting up.  She was a head taller than him, and looked 
                    strong, even if sleek.  She 
                    was definitely a warrior.  
                    Alps got up slowly.
                              "Then you will murder me here, 
                    and leave my body for the queen?" Alps asked calmly, 
                    looking up at Azia's face.
                              "You are.. unafraid.." Azia 
                    said slowly, seeming curious, as she gazed in Alps' eyes.  "Your eyes do not move to betray your 
                    confidence.  And yet, 
                    you hide nothing.  You have nothing in the way of skill to go 
                    against me, and yet, you do not fear the certain death I can 
                    bring you at any moment." she said.  
                    Tia was still sitting, shaking a bit, more visibly 
                    nervous than Alps, who, in reality, was terrified.  
                    In his life as a slave, he'd learned to hide his fear.
                              "Azia.. what can death bring me 
                    that I have not already suffered?" Alps said, with a 
                    hiss in his voice, becoming angry.  
                    She had a lot of nerve to mock him and force him back, 
                    for the risks he took for Tia.
                              "Life as a slave is not pretty, 
                    Alps." Azia said.  "It 
                    is little different than life serving me.. At any moment, 
                    your heart may beat no more, for the dangers we live in, day 
                    by day, as secret and dark.  You cannot see them like an angry mistress' 
                    dagger.  Would you 
                    place yourself in that danger, just to help your little friend?" 
                    Azia said.  She placed the spikes on her glove to Alps' 
                    neck.  A quick motion 
                    from her could tear a chunk out, and leave him bleeding to 
                    death quickly in the tavern floor.  Alps didn't flinch or move.  He said in slow, almost monotone words,
                              "I would not risk so much for 
                    Tia.. but I would risk as much for the people in danger in 
                    Jalana.. and for my queen.  
                    My loyalty is with her, not with you.  
                    Fortune has it, however, that to serve her best, I 
                    must loyally serve you.  At 
                    least for a time."  Alps 
                    held still, those spikes remaining at his throat.  He knew that it was no the answer this female likely wanted, but 
                    he would not make it seem that his intentions were to go against 
                    Nita's will.  he was 
                    here to HELP her, not to betray her.  
                    There was a very long silence.  
                    Tia seemed not to even breath.  Finally, the hand at his neck lowered, and 
                    Azia stepped back, regarding Alps with curious eyes.
                              "You won't try to tell me what 
                    I want to hear, even when your life is close to being pinched 
                    out, like a candle flame.." she said slowly.  
                    ".. Very curious.  
                    You will not lie or betray your feelings, even at the 
                    threat of death."  There was another long pause, while Azia looked 
                    into Alps' eyes.
                              "There is no purpose in lying 
                    to you, or to myself.  I 
                    have my own reason for assisting you, and if you will accept 
                    my help, you will accept it on my terms, not your own.  
                    It's up to you to decide whether having me with you 
                    is worth it.  I cannot promise a strong warrior or a brilliant tactician, but 
                    I can promise that, until my objective.. the defense of Jalana, 
                    has been completed successfully, my life will belong to you, 
                    and you will be able to use me as you see fit."  
                    There was the same will and conviction in Alps' voice 
                    now as there had been in Azia's.  She remained silent for a while.
                              "Very well.." she finally 
                    said after a while.  ".. 
                    For now, I accept your life, but you must already know that 
                    if Nita's forces fail to show up to defend Jalana, we will 
                    do nothing to stop the orcish hordes from taking it, Alps.  
                    It would be suicide to try.  
                    We will only try to evacuate the city, and if they 
                    are not willing to listen, you will see everything lost."  
                    As Azia spoke, Alps lowered his head.  
                    He knew what she said was true, and he knew Nita would 
                    not bring her forces there.  She had none to spare.  He looked up again.
                              "Nita has nothing to give.  Mannus knows what he is doing.  He knows that Jalana is open, and there is 
                    nothing to prevent this invasion.  
                    Opportunity may present itself.  
                    When the time comes, I am willing to cast away my life 
                    to save those in Jalana.  I will help you see to an evacuation if it 
                    comes to that."  Alps 
                    got onto his knees, and knelt before Azia, as he had many 
                    other mistresses.
                              "Very good Alps.  You will come with us to Kishu Valley, to the 
                    north of Jalana.  I 
                    will show you the kind of force the orcs are mounting, and 
                    you can see with your own eyes what we are really up against."  
                    Tia rose and bowed softly.
                              "M'lady.. it grows late, and we 
                    will need to leave before daybreak if we are to make it to 
                    Kishu Valley in a timely fashion." she said, very meekly.  
                    Alps suddenly felt a little ashamed.  
                    He had been so crass with someone who evidently commanded 
                    a lot of respect.  Then 
                    again, this was how he acted around Nita too.  
                    Despite being a slave, he'd become very strong willed.
                              "Yes.. let us retire upstairs.  
                    We have some business to take care of up there before 
                    bed anyway." Azia said, very calmly.  Alps fell into file behind her, and Tia behind 
                    him, as they headed up stairs.  
                    As they walked into the shadowy darkness, a figure, 
                    seated by the far corner in the flickering candlelight, shifted 
                    a bit, and moved along the wall, and then silently out the 
                    door.
                  
                    
                     
                    
                    
                              Once upstairs, Alps found that Azia 
                    had not spared expense in where she was staying.  It was a royal suite, the only one this inn had.  Two very large beds, and luxurious carpet, 
                    and glass-covered windows.  
                    He felt silly for it, but it made him feel at home, 
                    where, before he met Nita, sleeping outside under a porch 
                    would have made him feel at home.
                              "You said there was a spot of 
                    business to be taken care of, m'lady?" Tia said, sitting 
                    down on the bed.
                              "Yes.. The smell." Azia said 
                    sternly.  "I respect 
                    the queen for her dedication to her ideas, but I don't care 
                    to smell her pleasure all night long."  
                    There was a short silence, and Alps blushed again, 
                    having not realized it would even pose that much of a problem.
                              "But Lady Azia.. the baths are 
                    closed.  It would be 
                    conspicuous to give him a bath tonight.. perhaps we should 
                    wake up earlier and give him a bath in the morning?" 
                    Tia said softly.
                              "No good.  Taking a bath at all would put me in danger 
                    of revealing my identity.  
                    There are those in this city who know who I am." 
                    replied Azia.  "And most certainly Alps would stick out, 
                    with his solid white fur."
                              "So.. how do.. how do we take 
                    care of the discomfort involving him smelling like the queen?"  Tia asked softly.  Alps blushed again.  This 
                    was so very embarrassing.  
                    he didn't bother mentioning that part of the scent 
                    came from Misty as well.  Still, the majority was from his face and neck 
                    and chest, coated in his beloved queen's nectar.  Alps considered asking about Azia's fur color as well.  She was almost completely white, but her hair 
                    was black.  Perhaps 
                    she had experienced the same ridicule as Alps had for it?  
                    Perhaps not, he could simply not be sure.
                              "We cover it up, of course, so 
                    I can't tell it's Razelle's scent, of course." Azia churred 
                    softly.
                              "How do we do that, General Castalia?" 
                    Tia asked.  ".. 
                    We don't carry perfumes, as it gives away our location in 
                    the wilderness.  We really have nothing to cover up that scent 
                    with.
                              "You do, Tia." Azia said 
                    softly.  "... 
                    You already admitted to being willing to do that to Alps once.  
                    Just cover it up with your own scent."  Tia' jaw dropped, and Alps' ears perked.  Alps had grown VERY accustomed to rather open 
                    and casual sex, so the idea of doing that in front of Azia 
                    didn't really trouble him, but he could tell it made Tia very 
                    nervous.  Tia was a mountain gray lupine, and, as such, 
                    given to a little lower self esteem about her appearance.  With the beauty of her commander, surely the 
                    younger gray lupine felt a little awkward about doing something 
                    intimate right there with her.
                              "Here?  W.. With you watching?" she asked slowly.  
                    Alps remained silent.
                              "Yes.. why not?  Your friend doesn't seem to mind the idea."  
                    Azia said softly.  Alps blinked and blushed again softly.
                              "Y.. Yes, but General, he's a 
                    slave.." Tia stammered.  
                    "If someone tells him to slip under their skirt, 
                    and give them some sexual worshipping, he has to do it.  
                    That's just how he lives."  
                    Alps blinked again softly.  
                    It was true that if he were ordered to do it, he would 
                    have to, but no one ever treated him like that.  
                    He was about to say something about that, when Azia 
                    spoke again.
                              "Just as you are my servant, Tia, 
                    and must do as I say.  You 
                    gave your life to me, just as Alps did.  
                    You are fortunate this is someone that you like, and 
                    can enjoy.  I am not so cruel as to force this upon you 
                    with someone you didn't know or care about.  
                    You still Like Alps, don't you, Tia?"  The gray lupine looked into Alps' eyes, and Alps looked back intently.  
                    He knew she liked him.  They had been friends a very long time, but 
                    he also knew that Tia was rather shy, perhaps, and especially 
                    felt self conscious in front of her leader.  
                    Alps finally spoke, as Tia fidgeted.
                              "She is not asking you to put 
                    on a show for her, Tia.  She 
                    just doesn't wanna smell the queen on me.  
                    Get under the covers, and I can get under them too, 
                    and you can have your privacy, and Azia can have what she 
                    wants as well."  Alps nodded softly, finding his answer to be 
                    a very sound solution.  Azia 
                    flicked her ears a bit, and looked at Alps silently.
                              "Th..that sounds okay.." 
                    Tia stammered a little.  ".. 
                    Is that okay, Lady Azia?" she asked slowly.
                              "Yes.. I suppose that will do.." 
                    Azia stated, though Alps, trained in reading his mistress' 
                    moods, detected a hint of disappointment.  
                    Could she have really wanted them to put on a bit of 
                    a show?  He chased away the thought quickly, finding 
                    it to be rather silly.  Tia, 
                    dressed in a black skirt, and a white shirt, slipped under 
                    the covers, and fumbled around a bit, discarding her clothing, 
                    including white panties.  Alps blushed a bit, and felt himself firm up.  
                    He knew that she was now nude under the covers, and 
                    waiting for him.  Alps 
                    did not have nearly the modesty of Tia.  
                    He stood at the foot of the bed, and watched as Azia 
                    sat down on the edge of the bed with Tia, which made the gray 
                    female a little more nervous.  
                    He took her attention off of Azia, though, as he started 
                    to just undress out in the open.  Azia watched him with little expression, aside 
                    from curious amusement.  Alps 
                    removed his dark green vest, rather unceremoniously, and dropped 
                    it in the floor, showing his white chest, his soft fur, very 
                    plain and unsoiled.  He'd been grooming himself very well, to please 
                    Nita, so he was very bright white.  
                    Azia spoke again softly.  
                    ".. You have.. not other color on you at all, 
                    do you.. just white.. and the eyes of royalty.. I wonder what 
                    your parents actually were?" she bemused.  Alps shrugged a little, as he untied the ties 
                    to his pants, and wriggled out of them.  
                    He blushed just a hint as he realized that the thought 
                    of intimacy with Tia again had brought the pink tip of his 
                    masculinity out of his sheath.  He looked to Azia and blushed a little.
                              "S..Sorry about that.. I guess.. 
                    I get worked up pretty easily."  
                    He was fearful of offending Azia with a lack of self 
                    control.
                              "Don't worry yourself, Alps.  
                    I would be irritated with you if she did not cause 
                    that reaction.  Tia's 
                    a pretty girl.. You SHOULD want her."  
                    She smiled encouragingly, as Tia blushed.
                              "Th..thank you m'lady.." 
                    was all she could say.  Alps 
                    lifted the blankets at her feet, and crawled under them, so 
                    that his form was obscured completely.  
                    He slid in between Tia's thighs slowly, already catching 
                    the scent of her sex.  She wanted this, of that he was sure, she was just nervous.
                              "You know what you are doing, 
                    right boy?" Azia said commandingly.  
                    Tia gasped and arched her back a bit, and Alps' words 
                    came up muffled.
                              "Yef Miftreth.." Alps derived 
                    some sinful enjoyment from this as well, though he didn't 
                    know why.  In the slight 
                    darkness under the covers, he felt very safe, and he knew 
                    that Tia was being watched.  Alps placed one of his hands on her tummy, 
                    and the other on her thigh, holding her leg open, so she could 
                    not force him away.  He 
                    looked at her already moist slit, swelling with desire as 
                    he breathed over it again.  Slowly, he traced her labia with his hot tongue, 
                    getting a short gasp out of Tia as he did so.  Again and again, he traced, as he felt the pressure on the bed where 
                    Azia was sitting shift a bit.  
                    She scooted closer to Tia.
                              ".. It's alright, Tia.. you can 
                    enjoy it.. I am not stopping you.." she said calmly.  Alps smiled a bit.  She DID want a show.  She 
                    wanted to see Tia have fun.  
                    The slave lupine had no idea what their relationship 
                    was, but perhaps it was similar to Misha and Uri, only it 
                    had not gotten to a sexual level yet?  Alps pressed his tongue into Tia, making her 
                    raise her hips a bit, and moan softly.
                              "It feels so strange though.. 
                    with you watching and all.." she stated softly.  "So surreal..."
                              "Do you like the way it feels, 
                    Tia?" Azia asked slowly.  
                    Her voice was softer, more gentle now.  
                    She was changing her demeanor a little, from a cold, 
                    hard military style, to something more intimate now.  
                    "What is he doing?"  
                    Tia blushed a lot, as did Alps.  
                    He could not see anything. He pressed his tongue in 
                    deeper, and wondered if Tia would tell her leader that he 
                    was doing that.
                              "Aaahh.." the gray female 
                    gasped deeply, ".. Y.. Yes ma'am.. It does.. f..feel 
                    good.." her hips lurched a little.
                              "What is he doing?" Azia 
                    asked again.  ".. 
                    It's okay.. I am merely very curious.  
                    You know that already.. I'll not judge you.."  
                    Alps kept his tongue pressed deep in those sweet folds.  Tia was very tight, perhaps because she was 
                    nervous, but her tangy nectar was teasing his tongue already.  She was highly aroused.  Her legs closed a minute around his head, as 
                    he seemed to strike a more sensitive nerve, making her squeak 
                    with tense pleasure.  She 
                    finally answered, almost inaudibly, but just enough to be 
                    heard.
                              "His.. His tongue is in me.  
                    Alps has a .. good, long tongue.. he knows where.. 
                    mm.. where to touch.." Tia said slowly.
                              "Ooooohh.." Azia replied 
                    in a rather satisfied air.  
                    "Very good Alps." she said, loud enough that 
                    the blanket-covered wolf could hear.  
                    All that Azia could really see was Tia's face, and 
                    her hands, which held the blanket over her chest, almost to 
                    her neck, and the moving lump between the gray female's legs, 
                    which was Alps.
                              "Fank yoo." Alps said, rather 
                    wetly.  It sounded 
                    almost as if he was speaking over a bowl of soup he was trying 
                    to suck up.  Azia's ears perked.
                              "She's that wet, already?" 
                    her voice carried.
                              "Yeth." Alps said, his tongue 
                    having already darted back into Tia's tight tunnel.  She squeezed his head with her legs.
                              "Hush you." she said very 
                    sternly.
                              "Thorry." Alps churred, nuzzling 
                    at her sex.  he knew 
                    Tia was uncomfortable, but, being that his life, for the time 
                    being, belonged to Azia, he knew that he had to play to HER 
                    needs, not Tia's.  He held Tia's thighs apart then, with both hands, and made her whimper 
                    as he flitted his tongue back and forth across her clit, the 
                    way Nita likes.  He 
                    got a few heavy squeals out of her.  
                    This seemed to really spark the curiosity of Azia, 
                    who was not allowed to watch, but felt she could get away 
                    with questions.
                              "Oh my, Tia.  You really seem to like what he's doing now.. 
                    What, if I may ask.. would he be doing?"  Azia scooted closer, so she could hear those whispered answers a 
                    bit better.
                              "P..Please mistress.. ohh.. it's 
                    so.. embarrassing.." she arched her back a little, obviously 
                    getting a lot of pleasure from that, which Alps, while slowing 
                    down just a little, continued to do.
                              "Tia, it's okay.. It's me.. you 
                    would die for me, remember?  
                    That's what you said.  
                    Surely this isn't as bad as dying?"  
                    Azia's words were very soothing, and Alps felt Tia's 
                    legs relax a bit, though she trembled from nervousness and 
                    pleasure simultaneously.  
                    Alps became aware that Azia had a lot of intelligence 
                    and good diplomatic skills.
                              "N.. No.. It's not that.. I just-" 
                    Tia started, but Azia broke in.
                              "Close your eyes, Tia.. you can 
                    answer me if you don't see me, right?  
                    I just.. I am just curious is all.. I want to know 
                    what he's doing that makes you shake like that.." she 
                    said, placing a hand on Tia's shoulder.  ".. You are more than my servant, Tia.  
                    You are a companion.  A friend.  
                    We trust each other, right?"
                              "Y.. Yes, m'lady.." Tia said 
                    softly.  Alps was blushing 
                    a bit again, very slowly sliding his tongue back and forth, 
                    side to side over that tight, hard nub of Tia's clit.  
                    He was doing it slower to allow her to talk to her 
                    leader.  He felt kind of cruel, but he wasn’t doing any kind of harm.  He was actually giving Tia pleasure.  Surely he should not be ashamed of that.  
                    There was a little bit of silence and Alps decided 
                    to fill it.  He brought 
                    up the speed of his tongue, and pressed harder, side to side, 
                    rapid motions.  This 
                    produced a broken sigh, and a short squeal from Tia.
                              "Now.. what is he doing?" 
                    Azia asked, soothingly, and comfortingly.
                              "Oooh.. he.. he's making his tongue 
                    go sss.. side to side.. fff.. fast.."  Alps found Tia getting wetter and wetter as she spoke.  It was becoming apparent to Alps that talking 
                    about it to Azia was actually turning her on, even if she 
                    did not admit it.
                              "Very good Alps.. Go ahead and 
                    start covering up the smell.. get Tia's scent on you.." 
                    Azia said.  Tia squealed and blushed.  Alps did as he was told.  After flitting his tongue a little longer, 
                    getting a lot of that warm nectar to the surface, he began 
                    to rub his cheeks against her swollen folds.  
                    This issued quite a few heated moans from Tia.
                              "Hmmm.. feels pleasant, Tia?" 
                    Azia asked, caressing Tia's face.
                              "Y.. Yes ma'am.." she said 
                    with a whimper.
                              "My fur dried her already." 
                    Alps said from under the covers.
                              "Then get her wetter.." Azia 
                    churred.
                              "You know.. he will still smell 
                    like sex after he's done.." Tia panted.
                              "Yes, but he will smell like you, 
                    and I am used to your smell." Azia said, as Alps dipped 
                    his tongue back deep into Tia.  
                    She gasped and arched her back again, pressing her 
                    tight sex into Alps' muzzle again.
                              "Mmph.. huh?  Used to it?" she said with a soft groan.
                              "Yeah.. You think I don't know 
                    that you have been sneaking my .. err.. personal effects?" 
                    Azia churred.  Tia gasped, and slid one of her hands down 
                    to hold Alps' head, as the wolf began to grind his tongue 
                    on her clit.
                              "Nnnggah.. L.. Lady Azia.. I.. 
                    I'm sorry.. I just.." Alps became a little more persistent, 
                    not wanting her mood or her need to drop.  
                    He was now very reserved to make her climax.
                              "It's okay, Tia.. I never stopped 
                    you, did I?  I never 
                    hid them.. I trust you and I like you, Tia." Azia said.  Alps smiled a bit.  He had 
                    found himself being used as the medium in which Azia was getting 
                    closer to Tia.  He 
                    felt very good for it.
                              "You.. You wanted me to use them?" 
                    Tia asked, slowly rolling her hips, obviously slipping back 
                    in the mood.  Her eyes 
                    drifted shut, and she released a long, low croon.  
                    Alps held her thighs open again, and forced his tongue 
                    in deep, and brought it forward inside her, scraping eagerly 
                    against that little rough spot that he knew all too well.  
                    "oooOOOoOOOHH!" cried Tia, arching her back.
                              "Yes.. yes I did.. What did Alps 
                    just .."
                              "I dunno.. deep inside.. oh goddess..!" 
                    she whimpered.
                              "Ohh.. he's found THAT, has he?  
                    One so young too.. I hazard to say he might make good 
                    on his word of being useful now, huh?" she said, seeming 
                    to take some kind of delight in it.  
                    She got up from the bed a moment, and Alps wondered 
                    if she was undressing to join, but she soon returned.  
                    Alps could see her leather-clad hips from under his 
                    blanket where she was sitting.  
                    She was still dressed.  
                    Oddly, Alps found himself a little disappointed, and 
                    he cursed himself for being so greedy.  He had all the high council.  He had just become accustomed to full participation 
                    in these things.  Surely 
                    Azia, a general, would be more reserved.  
                    Not EVERY female wanted to pounce him like Nita and 
                    her sister.
                              "Mmmmph.. useful.. oh YES!" 
                    Tia cried out, her legs shaking a bit.  Alps knew well what it meant, and he went back to flitting his tongue 
                    over the little nub.  He 
                    knew that Azia wanted him drenched to cover the smell, and 
                    to do that, he was supposed to make her climax wet, and get 
                    more on him than in him, as much as he enjoyed the taste.  
                    Tia's eyes shot open, and she bucked her hips a little, 
                    shakily, her hands flying down by her hips, to grip the bed 
                    rigidly.  This motions 
                    pulled the blanket down away from her chest.  Azia's ears perked, and she stared rather unabashedly at Tia's heaving 
                    breasts, as she winced, and panted, getting closer and closer 
                    to climax.  She sat still though, looking but not touching.
                              "Very good Alps!  She's close.. don't stop!" Azia said loudly.  
                    Alps grinded a bit, as his tongue fluttered back and 
                    forth over Tia's clit.  He didn't have to be told that of course.  He knew what he was doing, but figured that 
                    Azia just wanted to feel like she was participating in Tia's 
                    pleasure some how.  It 
                    was starting to become obvious to Alps that there was some 
                    affection between them a little above and beyond that of a 
                    general and her follower.    
                    Tia's hips bucked heavily as she disregarded the fact 
                    that her breasts were visible.  
                    Alps kept her lower body covered, caring, at least, 
                    for Tia's modesty.  Besides, 
                    if there was love between these two, he'd rather Tia's most 
                    intimate moments be shared with Azia without his interference.  Alps took a moment to bring himself away from 
                    this reflection, as he stroked his own turgid member, so aroused 
                    by this he felt he could climax without anyone really touching 
                    him.  He stopped doing that, not wanting to spoil 
                    Tia's bed sheets, and, as he stopped, his face was suddenly 
                    coated as Tia squealed loudly!
                              "NnnnggggYYYEESS!!" she cried, 
                    rocking her hips, coating Alps' muzzle.  
                    Alps then stroked his chest and neck and chin over 
                    Tia's convulsing sex, drawing even more heated cries from 
                    her.
                              "Get it all over you Alps!" 
                    Azia said sternly.
                              "I am!" Alps panted, rather 
                    happily.  If only all 
                    his orders could be so fun!  
                    He stroked himself against Tia liberally, until he 
                    and Tia's hips were pretty well drenched, and he was sure 
                    that Nita's scent had been overpowered by this fresh, youthful 
                    scent.  He felt a small 
                    pang of guilt in covering up her scent, but it was Azia's 
                    order after all, and following her orders was how he would 
                    help Nita and her people.  His mind was made up.  He 
                    shuffled slowly back out of the covers, and got on his knees 
                    at the foot of the bed, watching Tia, who lay, her chest bared, 
                    and heaving, as she panted weakly, looking very much out of 
                    it.  He looked to Azia, 
                    whose gaze had fallen on his rock hard shaft.  Alps blushed a little, and said softly, "You 
                    like Tia a lot, don't you?" stating the obvious to distract 
                    Azia firm staring and making him blush.
                              "Mm.. Yes... She deserves lots 
                    of nice feelings, Alps.  Thank 
                    you.  You are not stupid, either, are you.. saw right 
                    through that."  Azia 
                    wagged her tail slowly, also on her knees on the bed, watching 
                    over Tia.  Her eyes were still closed, as she breathed 
                    through her mouth heavily.  
                    She wasn't responding to that revelation.
                              "She's out cold, I think.." 
                    Alps said softly.
                              "I take it you have had that happen 
                    to a girl you were with before?" Azia asked.
                              "Yes.. A couple times.  If they are under a lot of stress, especially." 
                    Alps answered.
                              "Ohh.. I see what your purpose 
                    to the royal family was now.  
                    Where were you trained?" Azia asked, sitting down 
                    on the edge of the bed, still looking at Alps' erection.  
                    She ear-twitched at a jet of pre from Alps, which spattered 
                    the blanket over Tia's inner thigh.
                              "Mmph.. Sorry.. can't.. control 
                    that.." Alps apologized softly.  
                    "I was.. trained by Nidaja, I guess.  She gave me to the queen to relieve he stress, I suppose.. so I 
                    guess you are right.. But others.. borrow me."
                              "THE Nidaja Razelle?  The great warrior general?" Azia asked, 
                    incredulously.  Alps 
                    suddenly felt that perhaps he was out of line in telling her 
                    that.
                              "Y.. Yes.. That Nidaja." 
                    he said softly.
                              "Well.. there goes THAT image.." 
                    the white lupine female said softly.  ".. Though, she is a woman before she's a general.  I suppose I could learn from that.." Azia 
                    said, caressing Tia's forehead.  
                    She looked at Alps' twitching shaft again.  ".. You know.. if you just let it alone, you are gonna be sore.. 
                    and might have dreams and spoil your bedding, Alps.." 
                    Azia said softly.  ".. 
                    Need someone to shake the dew off the lily for ya?" she 
                    asked, getting on all fours, and looking somehow.. playful.  
                    Alps looked at Azia sheepishly.
                              "Ahh.. I.. err..'  He looked down at his pulsing member.  He knew she was right of course.  He'd be inclined to wet dream, and be rather 
                    sore for it, if left to nature.  
                    He blushed a bit, his ears going pink.
                              "Don't feign shyness, Alps." 
                    Azia said, sitting down beside Alps.  "You are used to this sort of thing."
                              "Used to serving, not to being.. 
                    umm.. served." he said.  
                    "I can.. do it myself, if you would prefer.." 
                    he offered.  Azia was definitely a voyeur, and perhaps she 
                    wanted to watch.  Alps 
                    was willing.  He'd 
                    done it a few times for Nita, when she was too tired to endure 
                    more after being pleasured, and Uri and Misha had asked to 
                    see it a few times while they made love.
                              "Ahh.. I see.. Well, would it 
                    help you to know that I am a very curious sort, and have never 
                    seen what it looks like when a male.. well.."  
                    She chuckled softly.  
                    ".. You can do it yourself if you want, but I 
                    kind of wanted to try, cause I wanted to know how it .. felt 
                    and all that.."  Alps 
                    looked at Azia.  She 
                    had changed a bit.  gone 
                    was that willful voice, she was now a playful young female, 
                    who was getting to try something new.  
                    She was out of her element.  Alps looked over to Tia beside him.
                              "What if she wakes up and sees 
                    that?  Will it bother 
                    her?" he asked softly, always putting the needs and feelings 
                    of others before his own.
                              "Well, if she sees it, and doesn't 
                    like me handling you, then I will let her do it instead, if 
                    she likes." Azia said, some of that calm demeanor coming 
                    back.  Alps suddenly realized that a challenge increased 
                    his value to her.  Alps 
                    then felt a weird sensation of deja-vu. Since he'd met Nidaja, 
                    most of the females he had spent any time with had used him 
                    for something sexual.  He was beginning to wonder if he were cursed 
                    in some rather pleasing fashion.  
                    He would have to find out how to break the curse, and 
                    then make sure never to accidentally do that.  
                    This thought made Alps chuckle a little bit, and then 
                    he looked to Azia.  If she wanted something a little challenging 
                    to have fun with and entertain her, he would give that to 
                    her.
                              "Hmm.. Okay.. that seems fair 
                    enough.." Alps said, his cock bouncing just a bit, as 
                    he watched Azia.  ".. 
                    And how will you do it?" he asked.
                              "How will I..?" she started 
                    thinking, and then churred, ".. Well.. with my hands, 
                    I guess.  I heard that 
                    all you have to do is stroke it, right?" she said, holding 
                    her hands up.  She was still wearing those gloves, with spikes 
                    on the other side.  The 
                    leather was soft, but Alps could not help fearing the spikes.
                              "You will take your gloves off, 
                    won't you?" he said with uncertainty.  
                    Azia looked blankly at Alps a moment, with her narrow, 
                    exotic looking blue eyes, questioning.  
                    She then shook her head.
                              "Oh!  Oh yes, of course.. don't wanna hurt you on accident now do we?" 
                    she said softly.
                              "Good.. very good.. that was my 
                    worry." he said.
                              "But.. That's all I will take 
                    off.  Tia might like 
                    having you in her, but I have no intention to do anything 
                    of the sort, Alps." Azia stated very sternly.
                              "I understand, m'lady.  Tia's my friend from long ago.. I gave her 
                    that as a gift of reunited friendship.." he wanted to 
                    make sure Azia, who seemed to love Tia, didn't see Alps as 
                    a threat.  "I shan't do it again unless you order me too, now that I belong 
                    to you." Alps said, as Azia took off her gloved and tossed 
                    them on the other bed.
                              "Very good, only if I order you 
                    to.  Same goes for 
                    me." Azia said, licking her hands, and getting them wet.  
                    ".. You don't touch me or try anything unless 
                    I give you a specific order to.  
                    And trust me, Alps.  I will NEVER order you to.  Though.. if you beg me, perhaps.." she 
                    giggled softly, getting down off the bed on her knees, and 
                    wrapping one of her hands around his ridged length.  
                    ".. maybe if you beg, someday, I'll let you.. 
                    if you are good." she said.  
                    There was a hint of mischief in her voice.  
                    Alps flicked his ears, and then smiled rather coyly.  
                    He knew Azia's game now.  
                    As tough as she was, and as scary as she might be on 
                    the battlefield, Azia was still a young female, and she had 
                    a lust for challenge and adventure.  It was her way of life.  And in bed, it was no different.  Alps was a battle to be won, and if it was 
                    easy, she didn't want it.  
                    He decided that, to remain in good standing with her, 
                    he would have to play her favorite game.
                              "Yes, m'lady.. oohh.." he 
                    gasped softly as her hand wrapped around his thick cock.  ".. But I shall not beg, either.  A good slave never begs.  You will have to order me if you want me." 
                    he stated, feeling her hand begin to slowly slide up and down.
                              "Like this, Alps?" she asked 
                    softly, ".. or do I hold tighter and just tug on it?" 
                    she gave a couple uncomfortable pulls.  
                    Alps gritted his teeth and said softly, 
                              "No.. just slide it, like before.. 
                    make it feel like.. like it would if I were inside you." 
                    Alps said, blushing a little at giving her instructions.  It became obvious that Azia was very much a virgin.  At least, around males.  She seemed more comfortable with females.
                              "Okay.. But you won't be inside 
                    me, you know.  I won't 
                    let you unless you beg and are a good slave." she said, 
                    smiling as her hand drifted back and forth.  
                    Alps' rump tightened.  This was actually delightfully fun, and her 
                    hand, gentle, but strong, accustomed to holding a sword, felt 
                    very good.  "I can make you beg, you know."
                              "You could order me to do so, 
                    and I would do as you asked, of course." Alps said softly.
                              "No.." Azia said, speeding 
                    up her hand a bit.  ".. 
                    no, I can make you beg, even if I don't tell you to.  
                    You'll see.  I'll 
                    make you beg for me." she licked her lips as she looked 
                    up at Alps' eyes.  ".. Gimme a few days.." she said, 
                    chuckling.  ".. 
                    I won't cheat either.  I 
                    will not be mean and just.. stop this and make you beg now.. 
                    I will do it without having an unfair advantage like this.."  
                    Alps was secretly relieved.  
                    As calm as he was playing himself up to believe, Azia 
                    was right.  If she 
                    stopped just short of his climax, she could get Alps to do 
                    anything she wanted him to.  
                    He nodded softly, beginning to breathe deeper and faster, 
                    as he hand drifted up and down his shaft, which she held up, 
                    and watched as she pumped it briskly.
                              "Mmmmph.. Y.. yes, thank you, 
                    Azia.. you show yourself to be fair and just indeed."  He placed his hands on his ankles, so he could 
                    enjoy this treatment.
                              "I am new to this, Alps.. My arm 
                    is made for swinging a sword, not bouncing up and down like 
                    this.. will it take long?" Azia said, panting a bit, 
                    and spitting into her hand, wetting it more, and pumping a 
                    little more briskly on Alps' cock.  He was softly panting already.  Truthfully, it would not take long, not like 
                    that, but Alps did have an opportunity to get her to make 
                    it even more pleasurable for him.  
                    He panted out softly,
                              "You are.. doin' good, Azia.. 
                    but you can use both your hands, you know.. It'll go faster, 
                    and you won't tire out as much."  
                    He licked his lips softly.
                              "Mmm... like this?" she said, 
                    placing her palm over the first two inches of his cock, and 
                    tweaking and squeezing and rubbing the tip.  
                    Alps shuddered, and almost released right there, but 
                    caught himself, and held back a little.
                              "Oh yes.. yeah, like that.. v.. 
                    very good." Alps stammered, feeling his control slipping 
                    away.
                              "Oh yes.. I see now.. you like 
                    that a lot don't you.. I can tell you are close.  You want me to use my muzzle, don't you?  You wanna feel that hot warmth around it, don't 
                    you Alps.. that would make you pop." she said, almost 
                    cruelly.
                              "Ahh.. y.. yes.. it would.." 
                    Alps stammered, actually carried faster toward his climax 
                    by the thought of it, and the sound of Azia's voice.
                              "Well, that I won't do.. Sorry 
                    Alps.." she said, grinning to Alps, as she continued 
                    to tease him and massage his length, faster and more eagerly.
                              "Ahh.. mm.. It's okay, Azia.. 
                    I.. I'm close anyway..." he whimpered.  
                    Azia took her hand off the tip of his length, and moved 
                    to the side a little, so that he was not 'pointed' at her.  
                    She picked up her speed a bit, and Alps caught her 
                    scent rising.  She was getting aroused from this.  Alps whimpered softly, her scent driving him 
                    closer, even with her hand gone.
                              "Come on.. Come on Alps... let 
                    it go.. I wanna see.." she churred.  
                    Alps whimpered and gritted his teeth, desperation taking 
                    him.  He was right on the edge.  Azia was using him as a toy.. she was playing 
                    with him, and having fun.  
                    It was actually emotionally satisfying to Alps.
                              "Oh Azia!  I'm cumming!" Alps cried.  Tia, awakened by Alps' sudden cry, opened her 
                    eyes just in time to watch the sporadic fountain of pearly 
                    seed explode from her friend, all over the blanket that she 
                    was sleeping under.  She squealed with surprise, and giggled, pulling 
                    the blanket up to her chest, realizing she was exposed, and 
                    watched as Alps arched his back, climaxing hard.  
                    Azia held Alps tightly, until he was finished, and 
                    she stroked him kindly for a while, as he became slowly flaccid 
                    in her hand.  She smiled at Tia and giggled softly.
                              "I didn't want him to go to bed 
                    sore, Tia.." she stated softly.  
                    Tia nodded and rubbed her eyes.
                              "Then I take it I wasn't out long." 
                    she said, snuggling up to herself under the blanket, feeling 
                    a little sheepish, since her chest was out all that time.
                              "No.. not long at all." panted 
                    Azia.  I am gonna turn 
                    in now, you two.  We 
                    will have a long day tomorrow, of traveling, if we wanna get 
                    anywhere fast." she said, chuckling.  
                    "Alps, you can sleep here with Tia, since you 
                    two are already familiar." she said, smiling warmly.  
                    Alps nodded softly, and slipped under the blanket with 
                    Tia, feeling rather warm and sated, and happy to have someone 
                    to cuddle with tonight.  He 
                    had felt sure that he would not get to hold anyone for the 
                    duration of his absence from Nita, and likely longer, with 
                    how much trouble he was getting into.
                              "Goodnight, General Azia.. Umm.. 
                    Th.. Thank you for all this.." she said softly.  Alps realized that Tia had really not expected to be forgiven, but 
                    then, her punishment was yet to come, so she might not feel 
                    so thankful after that.  Alps 
                    hoped it didn't involve her being hurt.
                  
                    
                     
                    
                    
                              As his eyes adjusted to the darkness, 
                    the candlelight being blown out, Alps cuddled in close against 
                    Tia, and caressed her fur slowly, enjoying the feel of her 
                    nude body against his.  He 
                    spooned up to her as he had done Nita so many times, and found 
                    himself missing his queen already, even though they were not 
                    even out of town yet.  As 
                    Alps lay there, in the dark, thinking about his decision, 
                    he felt Tia shift, and roll over, facing him.  
                    She placed her hand against his chest, and he found 
                    himself looking into her eyes.  
                    She smiled at him, and caressed his cheek.
                              "You can't sleep either?" 
                    she asked, in a voice that was barely even a whisper.  Alps caressed Tia's cheek.
                              "I guess not.  I had gotten kind of settled down.." he 
                    churred.  "Feels 
                    weird, goin' away after so long in the castle.  
                    I hope Nita will be alright." he said.
                              "She will be fine.  And you said so yourself.  You won't be gone that long.  Just to see this Jalana thing through.  I know it will only be for a little bit, but 
                    I am happy to have you with me Alps.. and even more to know 
                    that you are safe.  I 
                    really thought you had died.." she explained.  
                    Alps' ears perked as he heard a sound, and then he 
                    shook his head, disregarding it.  They were in an inn after all.  it was possibly from another room, or the hallway.
                              "I know. She's got lots of friends 
                    and family there.  I 
                    hope she won't be too mad." he said.
                              "I doubt it.  If you love her, she must be special." 
                    Tia said, kissing Alps' cheek.  
                    She shuffled in a bit closer.
                              "Thank you Tia.. That means a 
                    lot to me." Alps said softly.  
                    He held Tia in his arms, feeling all the better for 
                    it.  Tia's body was soft and shapely, and seemed almost designed to be 
                    held.  Alps kissed 
                    Tia on the lips softly, and then held her in silence some 
                    more.
                              "What do you think of General 
                    Azia?" Tia asked softly.  
                    Alps looked at Tia, and saw a hint of seriousness in 
                    her eyes.  Alps' opinion of her was important to Tia.
                              "I am glad you have someone like 
                    her close by.  I know 
                    she will protect you and want to make you happy." Alps 
                    said softly.
                              "You think so, Alps?" Tia 
                    asked, with uncertainty.  
                    ".. I know this sounds weird.. and kinda creepy.. 
                    but.. I like her a lot.. you know.. like.. I mean.. like I 
                    like you.. you know?" she said, her eyes gleaming as 
                    she looked at Alps.  Alps 
                    smiled and chuckled softly, realizing that, as their love 
                    grew, neither had admitted it to one another.
                              "I don't think that is creepy 
                    at all Tia.." Alps said softly.  
                    ".. You fear expressing love for Azia because 
                    you are a girl.  Well, I knew a few couples like that in Diera, 
                    believe it or not..  They 
                    were just as loving and happy as any male and female couple, 
                    Tia.  You should not be afraid of your feelings.  
                    If Azia-" Alps heard another sound, which seemed 
                    almost in the room, or actually closer by.. but he didn't 
                    hear it again, so he continued to whisper to Tia, as quietly 
                    as he could.  "If 
                    Azia actually let you borrow her personal effects, she must 
                    feel some love for you too.."  Tia was quiet for am moment, thinking, and 
                    then she smiled.
                              "Oh Alps.. you are right.. cause 
                    that would mean she would still be willing to use them after 
                    me.. right?"  Alps 
                    looked at Tia blankly for a moment.  
                    Finally, he just had to ask.
                              "What.. exactly is it she knew 
                    you were borrowing?" his tail wagged a bit, his interest 
                    peaked.
                              "Oh.." Tia whispered, blushing, 
                    and being as quiet as she could.  
                    ".. Well.. umm.. It's a life-sized crystal sculpture 
                    of a.. a.. an aroused male.. thing." Tia said, blushing 
                    bright enough that Alps could tell in the dark, and even more 
                    so he felt her body heat increase.  He ohhhed softly in realization now what that 
                    was all about.  Girls 
                    without male companions could take a toy to play with.
                              "Oh.. Ohh.. I see.." Alps 
                    whispered.  ".. 
                    Yeah, definitely she must like you.. and she wanted to see 
                    you pleasured tonight too.  I bet she thinks the same about you as you 
                    do of her.  One day, 
                    I am sure you will both be comfortable enough to-"
                              "Mmmmph.. oh goddess yes.." 
                    came a whispered voice from behind, stifled, strained as if 
                    someone was trying to keep quiet.  
                    Alps went silent, still holding Tia close.  
                    Tia heard it too, and buried her face in Alps' chest 
                    fur, stifling a bit of giggling.
                              ".. She's playing with it now, 
                    oh my god.." Tia said, tightening up, and becoming warmer.  Alps was almost immediately aroused.  He licked his lips softly, and chuckled.
                              "Heh. well, she didn't take her 
                    clothes off or do anything to take care of her own pleasure 
                    while she.. umm.. took care of me.  
                    I guess that, on top of watching you, was more than 
                    she could take." he very faintly whimpered.  
                    Azia was just across the room, and he didn't want her 
                    to be disturbed.
                              "Oh my goodness.." Tia said, 
                    lifting her head, and watching the other bed for a moment.  ".. Yeah.. I believe you now.. that does 
                    make me feel.. happier.." she said, lowering her head, 
                    and draping a leg over Alps hip.  
                    Alps murred softly, and caressed that leg.
                              "Oh Tia.. hearing her gets you 
                    worked up a little, doesn't it?" he asked, suddenly wanting 
                    it himself.
                              "Y.. yeah.. I know.. It's kinda 
                    late, and we got a long trip tomorrow Alps.. but I wonder 
                    if we can.. umm.. satisfy each other without Azia noticing?" 
                    she swallowed softly, nervously, very excited by the taboo 
                    of it all.  Alps nodded softly.
                              "Turn around, Tia.. lay on your 
                    side.. I think we can do it quiet enough.." he said softly.  Tia did as she was told, and rather happily, 
                    as it allowed her to face Azia's bed, and see her softly squirming 
                    form.  Tia held her eyes almost shut, so she would 
                    not be noticed, watching, as Azia pulled her blanket down 
                    slowly, and began to fondle her breasts.  
                    She looked on occasion, to make sure that her and Alps 
                    were asleep, and Alps was moving so slowly that she could 
                    not see him, as he moved into a low spooning position behind 
                    her.  Tia watched as 
                    Azia, enshrouded mostly in darkness, a silhouette against 
                    a moonlit window, groped eagerly at her chest, her other hand 
                    under the covers, between her legs, using a toy Tia was very 
                    familiar with.  Made 
                    of solid crystal, it was an eleven inch long cock, with all 
                    the ridges, and shape of the real thing, made especially for 
                    traveling females, or those who are just lonely.  
                    Very expensive for this kind, Azia had paid a lot for 
                    it, and while Tia could have bought her own cheaply enough, 
                    it would have been of polished wood, which was not as nice, 
                    and eventually distorted, or actually even hurt.  
                    No, the one Azia had was the good one, and Tia had 
                    taken to borrowing it when she thought Azia was asleep.  
                    She had shamefully licked it and held it and worshipped 
                    it, thinking both of Azia, and knowing her taste and scent, 
                    and of a male.. sometimes Alps, sometimes some other fantasy.  
                    The thought that Azia might have been doing the same 
                    thing with it, licking Tia's taste off of it too, made her 
                    almost instantly wet.
                              "Oh Alps.. she's gonna .. she'll 
                    probably cum before we do.. " Tia noted.
                              "It's okay.. just relax.. and 
                    .. let yourself enjoy it, okay?" Alps said, feeling very 
                    dirty and taboo at the same time.  
                    He was already completely solid, erect with longing.  
                    He had been 'serviced' by Azia, but his loins burned 
                    for a little more, especially at being able to hear the occasional 
                    stifled coo of pleasure from the hard, cold General Castalia.  
                    Alps slid his hand along Tia's side, and kept her lying 
                    on her side, and pushed up close.  
                    This was the only way he could think of to get away 
                    with it.  He lifted 
                    Tia's leg, and brought his hips up closer behind her, and 
                    felt his cock just.. sink into her wet sex.  
                    Tia gasped deeply, but as quietly as she could catch 
                    herself and make it go.  She shuddered.  Alps had been right on target with the angle of their hips.  He felt himself about five inches deep inside 
                    his loving friend.  His 
                    hand remained on her hip, while the other held him in position, 
                    his elbow a little behind him, to hold himself as close as 
                    he could to Tia.
                              "Oh Alps.. we'll be noticed.." 
                    Tia barely whispered.  Alps 
                    shook his head softly.
                              "No.. Don't worry.. just relax.. 
                    try to act asleep.." he half whispered, half panted.  There was a pretty loud moan from Azia, who 
                    was getting very much absorbed in her solitary fun.  She had become so worked up with watching her secretly admired friend 
                    pleasured, and getting to make a male cum for the first time.  because of Alps’ positioning, he could pump 
                    in and out of Tia from behind. And as long as she held still, 
                    she was in the way of Azia's vision of Alps, and she could 
                    not see anything of his movement.  
                    Tia became aware of this, and nodded to Alps, spreading 
                    her hips just a little more, pulling a leg back over Alps' 
                    thigh, as he pressed himself as deep as the position would 
                    allow, about 7 inches, into her.  
                    It was more than enough for her pleasure, but still, 
                    Alps felt the pressure of Tia's hand down near his entering 
                    cock, as she teased her own clit, gathering extra pleasure 
                    from that.  Alps didn't 
                    mind.  This would keep him from having to go as fast 
                    or hard to make sure she enjoyed it.  
                    And he was enjoying it plenty as his hips collided 
                    softly with hers.  He 
                    felt a little guilty, because he was already breaking the 
                    rules a bit.  He told 
                    Azia he would not do this to Tia again unless her was told, 
                    but surely Azia would understand.  
                    Tia would suffer if she had to watch and listen to 
                    her admired friend have fun, and she could not.
                              "Oh yeah.. deep.. all the way.." 
                    came a whisper from Azia, who arched her back, her form easy 
                    to see, traced dark in the moonlight.  
                    Alps held back a moan of pleasure and anxiousness, 
                    as a hard jet of pre wet Tia inside.  
                    The lubrication was completely unnecessary, as Tia's 
                    hand sped up over her clit, and she backed her hips a little 
                    more against Alps, feeling him inside her.  Watching Azia was really getting her riled up!  that black outline of her leader was perfect 
                    in the light of a near full moon.  
                    The covers were off of Azia, and her nipples were nice 
                    and hard.  There was little detail, just outline in that 
                    silvery light, the moon visible outside the glass panes.  Tia looked down at Azia's thighs, and whimpered 
                    as she saw her hand moving, up and down, just a little, as 
                    if she were patting at her sex.  
                    Tia knew better though.  
                    Between her fingers, held tightly, was that crystal 
                    toy, being pumped in and out in that brisk, panting motion, 
                    being pressed deep into her body.  Tia could see the arching of Azia's fingers just under her bouncing 
                    palm.  She was playing 
                    with her clit at the same time, as she worked herself to orgasm.  Tia held her eyes half shut, and shuddered 
                    a little.  Alps felt 
                    her get wet fast.  He 
                    felt those strong pulses around his cock, which was darting 
                    in and out briskly.
                              "Did you just-" Alps whispered, 
                    but was cut off.
                              "-Yes.. yes.. keep going.. haahh.. 
                    don't.. stop.." came the light, hissed reply of Tia.  Alps could not see what Azia was doing, but 
                    it certainly seemed to be entertaining Tia.  
                    He felt her so hot and tight around him, fluttering 
                    a bit, as her body trembled with her light, but pleasurable 
                    climax.  She came quick and easily for Alps, but was wanting more.  The wolf pumped a little slower for a moment, 
                    not wanting to erupt too quickly for his friend's taste.  This gave Tia a bit of time to recover, but 
                    she was soon once again close to climax, obviously, by the 
                    speed at which she stroked her clit, side to side, as Alps 
                    pressed in and out of her.
                              "Faster Tia.. yes.." came 
                    a strained whisper from Azia.  
                    Tia jerked hard, hearing her name used by the sexually 
                    driven Azia, as Alps' thighs got soaked.  
                    The sheets beneath him were likely spoiled as well, 
                    as Tia shuddered, climaxing HARD around Alps' stabbing cock.  
                    Alps whimpered to himself silently, and held Tia.
                              "T.. told you so.." he said 
                    almost silently.  Tia 
                    whimpered silently, and nodded, her thighs parted, as Alps 
                    continued to pump into her.  
                    He was getting close.  He could feel it building up, but he didn't 
                    want to finish until Tia was satisfied.  
                    he felt that would likely be when Azia climaxed.
                              "Oooooohhh..." came a stuttering 
                    moan from Azia.  Alps 
                    knew that sound.  It 
                    wasn't long now.  he hoped he could hold out.  He felt Tia tense again, cumming around his 
                    pumping flesh.  He 
                    held tight, to make sure that it was not obvious that Tia 
                    was moving at all.  Tia's almost constant orgasm was starting to 
                    take it's toll on her.  Her 
                    leg, held up so Alps had a better entrance, was getting weak, 
                    and was resting against his thigh now, as her wetness poured 
                    along his hips.  He smiled a bit, as he held Tia, who was still stroking at her clit.  She finally moved her hand away, trying to 
                    hold back a bit, and keep from cumming again, and making so 
                    much noise.  Alps could hear Azia a lot now, though.  She didn't seem to be paying attention anymore, 
                    lost in the pleasure, only visually checking from time to 
                    time to make sure her friends were not awake, and Tia found 
                    it easy to keep her eyes mostly closed, with the pleasure 
                    she was in.  She held 
                    still as Alps pumped her eagerly from behind.
                              "I'm close, Tia.." Alps whispered 
                    softly, his heart beating hard, and his head a little fuzzy, 
                    the wolf growing dizzy from not allowing himself to pant.  Tia backed hard into Alps, and shook her head.
                              "J.. just a little more.. nnnnmmm.." 
                    she began strumming her clit again, as the sound of Azia's 
                    toy became audible.  A 
                    soft, licking sound of that smooth crystal slipping back and 
                    forth in her tight, wet nethers.  Tia watched with slitted eyes, that perfect 
                    silhouette of her chosen ruler, faster and faster strummed 
                    the toy.  Finally,  Azia's 
                    shadowed body arched, and a fairly loud sound emitted from 
                    her strained body.
                              "Nnnnkkkk!!" Azia stifled 
                    her cry of climax, but Tia could see it even if the sound 
                    denied it.  Her wetness, forced hard around her toy, sprayed 
                    outward a little, glittering in the moonlight, and she trembled, 
                    holding her hips up, her toy pressed hard and tight inside, 
                    as she climaxed around it.  
                    Simultaneously, Alps felt Tia's sex jerk hard around 
                    him again, that warmth spilling out over his hips.  Tia released her own muffled 'MMMppphh!' of 
                    pleasure, and her body heated and bristled, as she held back 
                    all sound, but none of the physical pleasure torrentially 
                    surging through her.  Alps couldn't take any more.  His cock, mercilessly squeezed and pulsed around 
                    inside this searing female, released suddenly, and powerfully!  He buried his head against Tia's back, holding 
                    her close, as he released his own small, stifled sound.
                              "Nnnnff.. T.. Tia.." he whispered, 
                    almost inaudibly.  Thick, 
                    hot jets of cum spewed hard into Tia, as her nethers practically 
                    milked Alps' shaft.  They 
                    held perfectly still through their orgasm, aside from tight 
                    shuddering and shivering of pleasure.  
                    Tia continued to watch Azia, as her body became relaxed, 
                    and she laid back down.  She looked out the window, at the moon, paying her friends no mind 
                    now, as she pulled the blanket back over her.  Alps felt another, smaller tremor flutter through Tia, as she watched 
                    her revered and loved leader, licking and sucking the crystal 
                    phallus clean.  Tia 
                    slowly calmed, and Alps, holding close to her, feeling very, 
                    very dizzy from holding his panting back, simply passed out, 
                    his pulsing, twitching cock still buried deep in his satisfied 
                    friend.
