Last-Minute Courting [Wolf; Dressing and Undressing, Contrived Excuse for Deep Kissing]: What do you do when you're late for a party and don't have anyone to go with? Catch yourself an Anon, of course. >”Don’t take shortcuts through the nature reserve,” they said >”Don’t go anywhere near the reserve if you don’t have to,” they said >”Don’t get out of your vehicle for any reason if you decide to go INTO the reserve,” they said >Why the hell didn’t you listen? >It’s been a long drive and you just want to get back as soon as possible >But it’s also getting late and really foggy out, and you need to stretch your legs >So you disregarded all warnings and take a break outside the car >Now you’re thinking this place was some kind of stupid little urban legend, or reverse psychology to get all the superstitious tourists to visit >It’s actually very serene here, especially with the setting sun casting an orange glow everywhere >You splash a little cool water from the creek on your face >Not a sound for miles except the insects and wildlife >And a soft popping noise >And the yelp you make when you feel a sharp sting from something stuck into you >You’re almost afraid to pull it out, but the fear of leaving it in is worse >You pluck the object out >It’s a tiny dart with a syringe >Completely empty >Another one sticks you, and another >You try running back to your car, but the wooziness kicks in >You black out as you trip and bang your head against the car door >When you come to, you’re floating in the air >You’re draped over someone’s shoulder, and there’s a dog tail wagging in the corner of your eye >Wait, the tail is attached to the person carrying you? >You try to get a better look around you, but your body is numb and unresponsive >”Just keep still, we’re almost there,” comes a feminine, but raspy voice >There’s no mistaking it, you’re hanging off a walking, talking, female wolf of some sort >You can barely see the tranquilizer rifle bobbing on her opposite shoulder >Even for being a humanoid canine, she’s still wearing fatigues and hunting clothes >True to her word, you arrive at a small shack just as the sun winks out completely >The inside of the place looks like what you’d expect from someone roughing it in the woods >It has a very earthly smell to it, but it’s also extremely cozy >So is the bed, which you’re dumped on top of unceremoniously >You get to see the wolfess in her entirety: slate fur with brown markings, amber eyes showing pride in her catch, and an overall athletic build (for a wolf, at least) >She sets her hunting gear aside and starts to disrobe you >You can’t really protest, considering the threat of her sharp nails and the sedative still in your body >The latter is taken care of when you feel the pinch from a new kind of needle >”I’ll let you finish the rest yourself,” she says >Guess she means your underwear, which is all you’re left with now >She heads into a small bathroom and you hear the pitter-patter of a shower starting >Your limbs get their feeling back, though you’re not exactly rushing to move around >”Come on, get up,” she grunts, pulling you up to your feet >A claw digs into your underwear and snaps your waistband >”You’re going to have to take this off eventually,” she says >Well, maybe a wolfess isn’t going to judge your nudity >Though she does give you a quick brow-raise of interest before shoving you into the shower >You stand there very still for a moment >It’s not like showers are foreign to you, but taking one at the command of an anthropomorphic wolf? >You slowly rinse yourself, but the wolfess is getting impatient >She growls as she checks the time on her…phone? >”Shit. We’re running late, and I don’t have a lot of hot water to waste anyway. Move over.” >In seconds the wolf peels off her own clothes, stark naked >You can see the faint definition of muscle even through her coat of fur, with strong thighs and a broad torso >She’s definitely respectable in the chest department, which you gaze at with undivided attention >Two weighty breasts flop out of her shirt, the pink nipples partially hidden by her fur >They hang enticingly as she bends forward to remove her pants >Her whipping tail soon draws your attention to her toned rump >This, however, you don’t get to thoroughly examine, as she’s back upright and pushing you deeper into the shower >The wolfess mutters to herself, but you can’t discern if it’s about you or not >She soaps up her paws and works the lather into your scalp and over your body >A part of you enjoys the eroticism of the moment, but she’s so quick in her cleaning that you don’t get to take it in for very long >She then covers a brush with the soap and thrusts it to you >”Do my back while I work the front.” >You tentatively scrub up and down her spine, hoping the speed and the reach is what she wants >It could be better >She barks “harder” and “lower” to you repeatedly, until you worry you’re going to wear the bristles down to nothing >When she’s satisfied the brush is yanked from your grip and tossed aside >You’re towel dried with enough friction to start a fire >She wrings the moisture out and snaps the towel at you like some kind of locker-room horseplay >…Are there anthro horses here, too? >You’re left with a pretty snazzy suit and tie laid out back in the living room >At this point you know enough about what’s going on (and don’t want to be disobedient) to hastily get dressed without her instruction >She’s still in the bathroom with a hair dryer on at full blast >You can see her fur floof up as she blows air all over >You have a little trouble with the suit, to put it lightly >It seems like it wasn’t originally meant for a human and had to be retrofitted for your kind of body >Clasps and buttons where you wouldn’t expect, and some seams that actually dig into your skin a bit >Before you can finish the wolfess is already fully clothed in an elegant, silky dress with a floral hairclip >She fixes your awkward mistakes and straightens your tie a bit >”Alright, we need to move.” >She forces you out the door, grabbing an uncharacteristically dainty purse >Further contrasting her polished appearance is a battered, muddy jeep parked just outside >You’re hoisted into it before the wolfess hops to the driver’s side >She guns it through the forest along a weathered dirt path, almost hurling you out of the vehicle in the process as you bounce over rough terrain and the occasional buried log >You can see the light of a large building among the darkness of the night >It looks to be some kind of convention center or main office building for the reservation >She slides among other parked vehicles of very familiar human models, and you’re swiftly pulled out of the jeep >”Remember, if anyone asks, your name is ‘Anon’, got it?” >Everything in the last half hour or so blurred by so fast you hardly had time to take in the full weight of the situation >Now that you have a chance to catch your breath, you’re hit with a truckload of confusion and disbelief >Anthros of all species are milling about in the main gathering hall >Bears, mice, cats, birds… >Yes, even horses >They’re all doing things humans would do at parties: eat, drink, and socialize >There’s a banner hanging from the ceiling advertising some sort of “Annual something Reservation something something Gala” >Or something >”Nimet, darling? What do we have tonight?” >A graceful, aged doe struts up to you and the wolfess >Nimet, huh? >”This is Anon,” she says, “the one I’ve told you about? Remember?” >”Charmed,” the doe says with a curt nod. “I didn’t think your stories of him were real, and you failed to specify exactly what he was. What is a human doing in our reservation?” >”Enjoying the party, I would think,” Nimet scoffs. “Remember when you said the only way I’d get a date is if I ‘hunted and tagged’ one? Well, Anon’s here to make you not a liar.” >You and the doe have a battle of who can make the more shocked expression >The doe seems to be winning, as she struggles to find a good counter >”I see. WELL, then I suppose given your usually boisterous attitude, you’re telling the truth when you admit to having ‘hunted’ this gentleman, hmm?” >”I thought you stuck-ups knew sarcasm,” Nimet snaps back. “Anon and I have actually been together for a while now, and we’re quite happy, thank you very much.” >”O-oh?” >The doe is taken aback by the verbal assault, but she tries to call the wolfess on her bluff >”Then I suppose Anon would be happy to validate your claims?” the doe says, giving you a sly grin >”I’ll do you one better,” the wolfess responds >She turns to you and plants her muzzle on your lips, caressing your head with her large paws >There isn’t much you can do to break away, especially with her tongue darting into your mouth >After you overcome to suddenness of the action, you actually begin to enjoy it >You return Nimet’s caressing and try to match the intensity of her kiss >She hasn’t given you control for one second since you met her, but right now you’re more than happy to relinquish yourself for as long as she wants >When she finally pulls off you, a thin strand of saliva still connect the two of you >The wolfess pulls a handkerchief out with an exaggerated flourish and dabs her mouth >”Happy now?” she says to the doe flatly >The doe stammers for a bit, then clears her throat >”Enjoy the party, you two” she manages to get out before briskly walking off >Several onlookers are both impressed and jealous of what they just saw >Nimet manages to keep you from dealing with too many nosy guests for the next hour >Humans seem to be an oddity of their own around here >You wonder whether the warnings of the reservation were to keep the anthros safe from the humans, or the other way around >How many others have gotten abducted from their vehicles and dressed up for dates? >Nimet herself doesn’t seem to be socializing much, instead keeping you close by as though you are her trophy date >She’s so stoic and distant you start to think maybe you did something to upset her >Not that you’ve really had much liberty to make your own choices >The wolfess remains this way for a while, until she pulls you off to the side in an adjacent dining room >”Look, I…want to thank you for going along with this. You were a good sport this whole time; probably too much for your own good, honestly.” >She runs a claw along your suit, gently >”When the night’s over, I can take you back to your car if…that’s what you want.” >You lean in continue your kiss >This time, it’s slower and more reserved >But perhaps even more passionate that the first >You look into her amber eyes when you’re finished, and her lips pull back into a genuinely caring smile >”Well, we should probably back up a bit first. I didn’t even let you get a chance to tell me your real name….”
