Important!: While this does take place in 'Corrin, of the Wolfskin', this is also going to be considered AU! Please, do not consider the details in here canon for the aforementioned fic. Please, do not assume that this is how 'Corrin, of the Wolfskin' will turn out later.
Secondly, when I type up Shifters, primarily in this case, Wolfskin and Kitsune, I like to keep them closer to their real-life counterparts. Topics like going into heat apply to the females, fur covers the majority of their bodies. This includes anatomy, Velouria and Selkie are going to be sporting several pairs of nipples, whilst Keaton's 'wolf' and Ka-da's 'fox' be described as a real life wolf's and fox's members.
If the aforementioned information about Shifters being described as their real life counterparts doesn't sit well with you, then I'd advise avoiding this work. I'm not pulling any punches here, this is probably come out more as bestiality rather than furry.
A/N: I can't even… Well… happy Easter? As for why post these around Easter?
Well, since Easter is typically paired with eggs, and more importantly, bunnies, the phrase 'breeding like rabbits' popped into my head. And since the Shifters are far more animalistic, it kinda fits.
This is also going to be three chapters. Enjoy!
Full Summary: It's spring-time, which for the beast-shifters like Wolfskin and Kitsunes, as well as the Wolfskin-raised half-human half-dragon Corrin, means that it's mating season. With this being her first time going into heat, since her first transformation into a dragon 'activated' the more animal side of her, she luckily has both Velouria and Selkie to guide her along. However, being as strong as Corrin is, both Keaton and Kaden wants to claim her as a mate, but of course, only one can do that.
So, since their duel for Corrin would end up lasting at least a day, she decides to... speed up the process.
Nicknames: Canon name = nickname
Corrin = Lupus. Velouria = Vella. Selkie = Silky. Keaton = Keaty. Kaden = Ka-da. Sakura = Saku. Ryoma = Red. Hinoka = Hina. Lastly, only Selkie/Silky refers to Corrin/Lupus as Lu-pu.
The days have been peaceful for quite some time now. Lupus and her family have come together rather nicely, despite the occasional hiccup in the Wolfskin-raised half-human half-dragon's behavior. Saku is, as usual, tending to the ones who need healing. Hina, surprisingly, is on par with Lupus… unshifted. The Pegasus Knight is starting to win a number of their playfights… or 'spars' as humans call them. Takumi's archery is as flawless as ever. Ryoma is playing a rather unique role… while Lupus's mother is still Queen, Ryoma has taken to negotiating to the Kitsunes and Wolfskin on behalf of the humans in Hoshido.
Times can be strange.
Right now, however, Lupus is lying on her back, Vella on one side, Silky on the other. As for Keaty and Ka-da? Well, just because they are at peace with the opposite beast race, doesn't mean they aren't competitive… oh no. It's a male thing, as Keaty and Ka-da are constantly trying to out-do the other. As for Vella and Silky? They're content to just relaxing.
"...Hey, sister?" Only Vella refers to Lupus as 'sister', as Keaty still calls her 'Corrin'. Strange, considering Vella is the one who initially suggested the nickname 'Lupus'.
"Yeeees?" Lupus exaggeratedly drawls out.
"Oh, you know." The two look at each other, and the Wolfskin raises an eyebrow.
"Itchy spot?"
Silky giggles, "Something's going on with a spot, but it sure isn't itching."
"...huh?"
"First time? Did transforming into a dragon finally make that 'click'?" Vella continues to prod.
"Hey, Lu-pu…" And only Silky calls her that, "Feeling… warm? Hot, even?"
Lupus scrunches her face, "The sun doesn't…"
"Not heat from the sun, silly."
"From inside you, sister." Vella then shrugs, "Or who knows, maybe you don't have it the same time as us."
A heat from inside? "Vella? Could you do the thing you and Keaty do back at the dens? Y'know, being blunt."
"Are you in heat? Do you feel an urge to pounce onto a strong alpha? Would you like to experience the feeling of being held down? Or knowing that you are bearing a litter of pups?"
Steadily throughout her sister's questions, Lupus's face started turning red, "Okay! I get it!"
"Well, are you?" Silky prods her side.
"Is there another indicator besides being extra warm?"
"Check your scent. If you're in heat, it'll be a lot heavier. Almost overpowering." Vella supplies without a hint of shame.
"Your core will also be a lot more sensitive." Silky adds, "Teats might even start leaking milk."
"Heavier breathing," Vella continues with the completely unnecessary details, "Lust will start to take over."
"You'll also probably present yourself to a male you think is…"
"I said I got it!" She finally screams. "And yes, my scent is heavier. Could you two stop teasing me about this now? It's my first time!"
Silky and Vella share a glance, before both of them start smiling mischievously, "Nope." They speak in almost perfect unison.
"Sister… you're the one who went out of your way to ask me how it feels to mate." Vella points out.
"Lu-pu… we all know there are two males who would want you." Silky goads.
"No! At least… not Keaty. I already told you that just because…"
"There's biting. He'll pin you down. You'll succumb to the feeling of being mated…" Vella continues, lust shining in her own eyes.
"You are both…?"
"Ohhh yes… and I'm really feeling it this time!" Silky exclaims.
"It's spring-time, so yep." Contradicting Silky's high amounts of enthusiasm, Vella looks more content where she is. "Next one will be in fall."
"So… only twice a year?" Lupus assumes.
"The two big ones, yes." Vella nods, "The urges will be at the highest. But, you should at least be already aware of that. I know you couldn't miss the heavy odor of sex blanketing the dens…?"
"Yeah, but it's different to actually feel the urge."
"Well, like Vella said, Spring and Fall are the two big ones. You'll get smaller urges every now and then."
"But, I thought it's about what the male wants." Lupus looks right at Vella…
Who shrugs, "It is. Your scent will fill the area, and if a male wants you, he'll have you. If he doesn't want you, he won't, even if you want."
Lupus blinked her eyes, perhaps it's because it's finally been pointed out, but whew… The combined scents are getting so strong that she's having a hard time thinking about anything but mating.
"Uh-huh, she's really feeling it now." Silky laughs. "Better go find you a male, Lu-pu."
"...you aren't?"
"Not now, no." Silky shakes her head, "Vella and I aren't feeling it as strong…"
"Because we haven't attracted the attention of any males yet." Once more, Vella raises an eyebrow. "Or, in your case, two males."
"Oh yes… they're gonna be fighting extra-hard today!" Silky cheers.
"Keaty and Ka-da are fighting… over me?" It was more of a statement, and it was a statement that sounded weird to say the least.
"You're the strongest bitch around." Vella shrugs. "I'm sure even the alpha would want you by now."
"Really fast, too. Don't forget you managed to clip Ka-da when he was in his Nine-Tails and you weren't even shifted." Silky nods.
"Alright… so those two are fighting over me right now. I'm also assuming by how calmly you two are, that Keaty and Ka-da won't end up killing each other?"
"Most likely."
"Pretty much." Came the two responses.
Lupus gets up, "Well, I wanna make sure that doesn't happen. I don't care if it's time to mate or not, I'm not gonna lose either of them… we're not going to lose either of them." She takes a deep sniff of the surrounding air, locking onto the, admittedly thick-skulled, brothers' scents. "Alright, I'm off." She announces as she does just that.
"...Should we follow?" Vella asked, already both lying back down and sprawled out.
"I think she'll be fine." Silky bites her lip, nearly bouncing in place. "How can you stay still? Don't you have a lot of extra energy to burn?"
Vella shrugs, "Nah. I'm perfectly content waiting. If a male comes by, a male comes by. What about you? How can you keep constantly moving?"
"I guess it's because Kitsunes are built for speed?" Silky mimics Vella's earlier shrug, "Part of our mating has always been chasing the vixens and pinning them down." She then giggles, "Then… then there are the times when Kitsunes collide with each other." The giggles turn into a laugh, complete with tears of joy.
"Hm… Wolfskin mating was more a show of strength. Strong enough to keep the bitches from moving at all, but just light enough to prevent bones from cracking." Vella shivers at the thought, as well as becoming extra-wet without any shame.
"Ooo… all of these little differences. I like it!" Silky flashes her canines, "Oh! Lu-pu told me my saliva tastes sweet."
"And you didn't already know that?" Vella looked up at Silky with a raised eyebrow. The accused vixen shakes her head. "Wolfskin's saliva is salty, there's a lot of… well, salt in the air. I think the eldest bitch said something about having a large natural source near us. So, the pack we were in probably had the saltiest tongues. I'm assuming that you and the other Kitsunes eats a lot of sweets, then."
A pause, then Silky's eyes light up, her tail starts wagging furiously, and even her mouth starts drooling, "Ohhhh yeeees! Sugary sweetness… and nothing beats a fresh peach!" She licks her lips in anticipation, as if saying the name of the fruit is enough to cause one to appear. "Don't ever come between me and a peach…" Her eyes narrow and she growls.
Vella casually shrugs. "Not a problem." It'll probably be way too sweet for her, then. "Actually… you know what? I'm gonna follow sister." The Wolfskin slowly rises, dripping core and all.
"Probably going to our dense brothers, right?" Silky tilts her head as she follows Vella and while the Kitsune might not be dripping between her legs, she instead sports some milk-covered teats… all eight of them. "Might be fun just to watch them fight…" A pause, before Silky forms a smug smile, "And Ka-da's gonna floor Keaty."
Vella scoffs, "As if. Ka-da's going to get hit once and be out for the rest of the day."
"Once Lu-pu shows up with her scent, Ka-da will finish off Keaty and be the one to mate with her… strongest pups ever." Silky sticks her tongue out.
Vella rolls her eyes, "Once Lupus's scent fills the area, Keaty's gonna knock Ka-da out and claim her… it will be the Wolfskin with the strongest pups." The two stop walking and turn towards to face each other.
"Oh… you think so?" Silky stares her down.
"No. I know so." Vella eagerly returns her stare. "Keaty will come out on top. Our alpha stood against the King of Nohr… alone."
"Ka-da's so gonna win. Our alpha outwitted and killed a half-dozen poachers, each and every single one had a Beast Killer on them." Silky then growls…
Vella growls…
Then the two start giggling and laugh at each other, "I guess… there's only one way to find out..." Vella starts.
"...and that's to see who's gonna win." Silky finishes. "I really like you, Vella. I never thought we'd get along so well." A pause as the laughter dies down and the mood becomes serious, "Whatever happens, whoever gets Lu-pu… please, keep being a friend, okay?"
Vella nods, "I agree. We're still going to have a rivalry, it's just part of us, since you're Kitsune and I'm Wolfskin… but yes. Even if Ka-da claims Lupus, I also want to keep being friends." Vella then squeaks and gasps as Silky abruptly hugs her. "S-Silky, haah… I'd normally not worry, haah, about human habits much… b-but haah…"
"Haah… we'll b-be fine. Females can't m-mate anyway… ah!" Vella returns the hug... Before shoving Silky away. If the two weren't panting heavily before, then they were now. The contact was enough to set their nerves on fire. The Wolfskin's legs trembled and the Kitsune's nipples were now openly milking.
"Lu-pu's right. Things are… gonna change. So, when Ka-da wins, Imma pin Keaty down and mate with him!" She dashes off.
"No way! When Keaty wins, I'm going to hold Ka-da down and mate with him! Silky!" Scoffing, Vella starts her own sprint.
Lupus was going to follow the scent trail straight to Keaty and Ka-da, but she might have gotten side-tracked along the way. The first obstacle came in the form of Saku, who wanted to sew a few small blankets together, as there were apparently a few newborns expected today. Lupus, while initially torn between spending time with her little sister, and making sure those two extremely dense males didn't end up mauling each other, had her decision made when Saku did that little head tilt and her eyes seemed to shine.
Why does that expression literally always work on her?
So, right now Lupus is sitting in a chair next to Saku, doing her absolute best to not mess up the needlework. Because when compared to Saku… Lupus's little blankets were terrible. "I-It t-takes practice, big s-s-sister." Saku gently guides her and after several failed attempts and broken needles. Yes, Lupus's skin is so tough that instead of the needle puncturing her skin, her skin bends and breaks the needles. She managed to thread together a mostly good blanket.
At least this one didn't have any holes in it.
...better than the pouch's worth of bent and broken needles.
She still feels bad about all that wasted thread, though.
After they finished, Saku gives Lupus a gentle smile, "Th-thank you… I know the p-parents will r-really appreciate th-these!"
"Not a problem." Yes, it is a problem… no, not helping her, Lupus's current heat problem. "I gotta get going, see you later!" She didn't even bother waiting for a response.
Out the nursery and back into the main halls. Thanks to all of the needless twists and turns this castle has, Lupus was barely even halfway out, even with her sprinting like a maniac. She easily weaved around servants and guards alike, her momentum was high enough to where she could kick off of walls instead of actually turning.
There might have been a few broken bricks, though.
Right as she could get a good sniff of the outdoor air, however, she slammed body first into a wall of red steel…
Or, more accurately, she accidentally tackled Red. It's a good thing he's wearing his armor, then. "Gods… sister?" He groans as he gets up, "What's gotten into you?" He asks as he helps her up, "Wolfskin thing?" He notes as her body is slightly trembling in her lower areas.
"Uh-huh, I need to go." At least, she would have, had Red not clotheslined her, so she ends up slamming right back onto the stone floor. However, due to her exceedingly tough skin, she didn't even groan in pain.
"Sister, that doesn't mean you can sprint in the castle like that. What if you collided with a servant that way? Or, gods forbid, you ran into one of our other family members? I'm sure I don't need to tell you that I'm the only one with Hoshidan steel covering my body. What if you ran into mother like that? Sakura?"
Deflated, Lupus slowly gets up… ears drooped, eyes downcast. "You're right. I'm sorry, big brother." She didn't even bother explaining why she does, in fact, need to sprint.
He sighs, "As long as you understand… I'll see you tonight at dinner then. I'm assuming it's…" His eyes follow her as she already resumed running… if at a slower pace, "something that's going to last for a bit." He finishes, despite Lupus already being out of earshot.
Almost outside, almost outside. She takes one last turn, then doubles her sprint, cracking a number of bricks on that first step. One jump is enough to take her out of the rest of the hallway. Hitting her top ground speed… in human form, that is, she jumps from atop the top of the stairs… before forming her wings. "Hee hee…" She starts giggling at the pure ecstasy of having the air rush by her so quickly, the feeling of nothing under her feet, of slowly descending back onto ground. Not wanting it to end immediately, she flaps her wings a few times, granted it isn't enough for her to gain height, but it's enough to keep her gliding longer.
Landing on the roof of some house or other… which might be suffering from a cracked roof, Lupus resumes her sprint to where… "Sister!" Oh, not now! "Gods, what's wrong?!" Hina swoops down from atop her Pegasus. "Everything alright?"
"Wolfskin thing, gotta make sure Keaty and Ka-da don't end up mauling each other, see you at dinner…" She repeats that last part from Ryoma.
"Could you sprint without cracking tiles?" Her gaze is extremely intense, and it kills off some of her adrenaline. "We've been over this, just because we're royalty…"
"Doesn't mean we get to do what we want, I know." Lupus sighs, "Can I please get to Keaty and Ka-da before they end up ripping the guts out of each other?!"
"I'm sure you're exaggerating…" Hina mutters to herself, "Alright, go ahead. I'll make sure the…" Once more she's already gone, "houses are repaired." Hina then looks down at where Lupus was standing and… "Gods. Sister!" Taking a breath to calm herself, she shakes her head. Time to survey just how many tiles and bricks she needs to get to these unfortunate individuals.
Finally. Finally out of the city. Now there can't be anyone else to get in her way, because nobody just randomly walks around…
"Big sister?" She actually ends up tripping and falling from the sudden call-out.
"Aw, come on!" Lupus groans as Takumi stands up, his special bow in hand. "Let me guess, don't run so bloody fast?!"
"Huh? I was just going to ask if you wanted to hunt again? I was going to go with Setsuna, but she's really late… again." He sighs.
"Nope. Too busy. Have fun. Good luck. See you!" Lupus kicks up dirt as she, once again, resumes her sprint. There… that's all of her family, now she has to be in the clear.
"...What's gotten into her?" Another sigh, followed by him shaking his head. "Women…"
At last, Lupus can finally see the two males… each competing to be the alpha… for her. Over her. Wait… Vella and Silky are here, too? "I figured you would be here by now." Vella is sitting next to Silky, a pile of food between them. Fresh kills, rabbits, small birds, some rodents. There are even a number of fruits and vegetables, though most notably, the peaches are all on one plate… and between Silky's legs.
"Got… held up. By… literally, every sibling." Lupus takes several huge breaths. "Food?"
"Help yourself," Silky starts, "Except the peaches… they're mine!"
"...I can tell." Wow, she suddenly got aggressive. "I thought you liked birds the most?" Lupus snags a rabbit.
"For meat, yeah. Peaches are my favorite not-meat." Silky points at the two males, "Don't worry, we won't let them do anything stupid."
"Yep… we've been watching." Vella nods as she grabs a rather large rat. "Take a seat, it's going to be a while before they're done."
"Been at this since morning, apparently." Silky shrugs… kinda how like Vella does. "Lu-pu… they really want you." She stresses the 'you'.
"Uh-huh, sounds weird, right?" Vella nods, "Usually males fight for alpha to take control of the pack… not because they want to mate with a single bitch."
"Things change?" Lupus offers as she sits down, next to Vella. Better safe than sorry when it comes to that plate of peaches. "You sure they've been fighting for that long? Looks like they barely started…"
Wolfssegner versus a Nine-tails. The strongest of a Wolfskin versus the fastest of the Kitsune. Ka-da's attacks look like they don't even pierce Keaty's fur… but Keaty can't seem to land a hit. "Think that's why they want you. You aren't so skewed in strength or speed." Silky points out, "You got the right amount of both, so you'd obviously would be the best choice for mating."
"Oh." Lupus simply replies.
"Might also explain why neither of them bother with us." Vella adds.
"Huh?" And now she's confused.
"Made a bet with the vixen." Her Wolfskin sister raises an eyebrow, "If Keaty wins, I'm pinning down Ka-da and mating with him."
"Excuse you?" Lupus asks.
"And if Ka-da wins, then I'm holding down Keaty and mating with him." Her Kitsune play-buddy adds.
She looks between the two females in heat… just like her. "You know what? If you two are going to act like that, then…" Lupus pauses as she tries to think of… that's it! "Then even after one of them wins, they'll have to best me, too!" She smiles.
"Oh, that's just cruel." Vella slowly smiles, "I like it."
"I guess Lu-pu isn't going to mate, then. I'm getting Keaty and you're getting Ka-da." Silky shrugs, before ripping into another peach.
"Hey, now who said anything about me not mating?" Lupus asks, "What I'm getting at is that I'm choosing who I'm mating with."
"And the only reason you aren't attempting that now is because you want them to be worn down first?" Vella catches on.
"Yup!" Lupus openly smiles, showing off her canines.
"Alright then, Lu-pu… which one are you going to choose?" Silky smirks.
"Oh… I want to hear the answer to that, too." Both of them have an intense lust shining in their eyes.
...That's a good question. Lupus didn't really think that through. Who should she mate with?
A/N: 'The Path is Yours'
…
So, if I'm going by their in-game ties to countries. Kaden is going to be the 'Birthright' path, while Keaton is 'Conquest'.
And no, I'm not planning a 'Revelations' route. Stressing the planning part. This might end up being four chapters. My mind might end up going even more south. We'll see.
