He finally addressed all of his employees and finished overlooking new toy designs that were going to be released in time for the holidays. He tilted his head looking over some of them and could only wonder what Akera would like for Christmas. Did she even know what Christmas was? He could hear movement though the house and he quickly looked up to his door and noticed it was just his housekeeper back from vacation. "Sir Cloud. I am home."
"In my office Reina." He shouted from his desk as he quickly started sending pictures of Akitas to his building team. He quickly sent off an email that he wanted a stuffed animal built to the specs of the pictures he sent them. It was almost instant that he got an email back saying they would get right on it.
Reina made her way into the office and was smiling in a brand new skirt and scarlet blouse. "Reina that looks lovely. Where did you get that?"
"Oh Just picked it up in Paris. It really is a lovely place you know. Is there anything I can get for you Sir? Anything to eat or drink?"
He shook his head quickly and rested back in his seat. "I am good for now but thank you. You might want to start preparing lunch however. Make enough for three as well."
She looked to him puzzled. "Three Sir? Do we have company."
His eyes were brimming with delight and he nodded happily to her. "We will have from now on. I have made a new investment. A traveling companion and obedient pet. She is asleep upstairs right now. The trip here was pretty tiring for her."
Reina couldn't help but glance toward the stairs and wondered what on earth he was talking about. "A girl? You bought a girl? I thought that was illegal Sir."
He chuckled slightly and shook his head. "Yes she is female but she is not human. She is an Akita. Her name is Akera. She is anthropomorphic. Do you know what that means Reina?"
She nodded and looked back toward the stairs. "So... how did you find her? I... I didn't even know they existed."
"Well I didn't either. But apparently they do. There is a breeding and adoption facility in California. They sell the pets they breed and train to people like me." He tilted his head again and looked to her. "Do you think this company would be a good investment. I mean I think they are just getting started out. If we bought out their company maybe we could help them expand."
She raised her eyebrows and really looked surprised. "You... you just bought one of their pets today and your already thinking of buying out their company. Sir, I think this is a bit extreme don't you think?"
Nodding softly he thought about it. "Yeah you're probably right. Just a thought you know."
She nodded and smiled to him. "Of course I understand Sir. I just think it's a bit soon. Maybe you should learn a bit more about their company first and then maybe invest."
He nodded in agreement and slowly raised from his chair. "I think I will go check on her. She has been asleep for a good long while now."
"Very good Sir. I will go tend to lunch then. Was there something you were really wanting in particular Sir?" She opened the door for him as he headed toward the stairs. "Anything is fine with me, thank you Reina."
She nodded to him and watched as he climbed the stairs. He reached the top quickly and moved to his room. The door was still cracked and gave a small creak as he opened it. She hadn't moved much other than one of her feet escaped the blankets. She held the pillow tight against her body and smiled in her sleep. Sitting on the bed next to her he gave her a gentle shake. "Akera darling. Wake up."
She shifted slowly and her eyes fluttered open to meet his. She smiled at him still unseeing and patted his hand. "Good morning."
He gave a gentle chuckle at her response. "It's not really morning anymore hon it's almost two. We will have lunch soon. Would you like to get up?"
She grumbled a little as she sat up taking the pillow with her. She stretched out slowly and she could actually see him smiling at her now. "What did I do something funny."
"No your just cute when you wake up. I suggest a shower before lunch. The chlorine is probably still in your fur. I wouldn't want it to affect it." He stroked her side gently that ruffled the nightgown before moving his hand to her cheek. She smiled and rested her head in his hand just watching his eyes. Her ears perked up quickly and she looked around him to the door. "There's someone down stairs?"
He nodded gently and pulled her close. "It's my housekeeper. Her name is Reina. She is making lunch right now. I will leave you to shower if you like, just please don't take too long."
She nodded softly and watched as he stood to leave the room. A yip escaped her lips and his attention was quickly drawn back to her. "What's the matter Akera?"
She blushed brightly and quickly looked away. "I... I don't really want you to leave. Will you please at least wait in the bathroom for me? I just don't want to be alone."
He smiled at her and strode across the room back to her. Hooking his fingers under her chin he pulled her face back towards his. "I wouldn't mind that. Would you like me to join you? I understand though if it's too soon for that."
She hadn't moved her head away from his grasp but her eyes couldn't stand to look at him. She didn't want to tell him no but she was also a bit nervous about being so close to him in the nude. Her thoughts traveled back to when he tucked her into bed and she blushed brightly looking to him. He did kinda undress her already but he couldn't see much from the angle they were standing at. Her eyes slowly moved to meet his again and she gave a quick nod before she changed her mind.
His eyes sparkled with delight and he gave her a chaste kiss before pulling her to her feet. "We should probably hurry then. I don't know how long it will be before lunch is done." He waved her on to the shower as he wanted to lock the door to his room. Last thing he needed was Reina walking in on the both of them in the shower.
He slowly entered the bathroom and found Akera looking herself over in the mirror. Noticing his presence in the doorway she jumped and smiled to him. She looked flustered and unsure of what to do. Smiling softly he slowly approached her, his eyes never leaving hers. His hand reached out slowly and brushed along the silk fabric of her nightgown. She tensed under his touch and her gaze instantly met his. She relaxed slowly as his hand withdrew. "If you are having second thoughts..."
She shook her head quickly and smiled to him. "I just... This is new for me." Her ears relaxed against her head again as she looked to them both in the mirror.
"I know it is. That's why we are going to take it slowly." He placed both his hands on opposite sides of her face and pressed his forehead against hers. She looked directly into his eyes and her muzzle came about even with his lips. He placed a gentle kiss on her nose and smiled to her. "Please relax around me. I want to see the real you."
Nodding gently her eyes gazed into his softly. "Okay. I will try."
He nodded happily and slowly moved his hands down her frame feeling across all her curves. He was extra careful not to touch her anywhere he didn't think she would approve of yet. Slowly slipping to the hem of her nightgown he lifted it ever so slowly watching her expression as he did.
Her eyes watched his hands moving over her body and when he slowly began to lift her night gown she lifted her arms into the air for him. He couldn't help but smile watching her reaction as he tugged it free of her body. It fell to the ground in a wisp and she blushed bright. Glancing toward the mirror she could now see her naked figure standing in front of him. Her tail slowly moved to curl under her but he stopped it with his hand. Pulling it slowly around front of her he held it in his hands gently. "Relax..." He massaged gently at her tail working his way up to the junction at her spine. She was slowly able to relax and closed her eyes to the feeling of his hands. They slowly traveled up her body his arms snaking around her figure. He pressed his body close to hers enjoying the warmth of her. Taking her hand he slowly lead it to the button holding his shirt together. She slowly unbuttoned it and it slipped off his shoulders to the floor. His grin grew as he pulled her tight into his arms. Resting her head on his chest she breathed in his scent and traced her hands slowly over the muscles along his torso. His eyes gazed down to the top of her head as he could only wonder what thoughts were running through her mind. His hand slowly moved to her ear and he gently massaged at the tiny muscles that worked hard to keep her ears moving. They relaxed instantly under his gentle touch and the feeling relaxed her entire body. He could feel more of her weight resting onto him and he could only smile. The feeling of her relaxing to his touch and slowly starting to open up to him made him grin from ear to ear. Slowly he pulled away from her and smiled to her eyes. Her's meeting his a grin fell across her face and he gently pushed her towards the shower. "I will join you in a second you go ahead and get the water running."
She nodded softly listening to his words and moved to start the water. Looking himself over in the mirror he slowly removed his pants and underwear with them. She stepped slowly into the shower and he watched as the water cascaded over her fur. It clung to her frame accentuating her curves. His eyes traveled over her and he quickly had to draw his eyes up to her eyes to distract himself. Her eyes wandered over his frame as well and a shiver ran over her. His figure was very lean but his muscles were also defined at the same time. It wasn't long before he joined her feeling the water dripping down his frame. Smiling to her he pulled her into his arms embracing her. The feel of her fur sticking to his skin was oddly comforting as if every part of her called out for him.
Resting her head against his chest again she pulled her body as close to his as she could get. Her tail hung heavily drenched with the water that had covered her fur. Turning slowly he pulled the soap bottle off the small shelf embedded in the wall squirting some into his hands. Rubbing his hands together he slowly lathered up and started rubbing it against her arms. His eyes followed along where his hands traveled deeply involved in his task. She relaxed gently against the wall as his strong hands worked over her body.
"Akera, I was wondering if you knew what Christmas was." He said slowly as he moved along to her shoulders. Akera nodded softly as her eyes wandered to him.
"I.. I have heard of it. We kinda celebrated it at the facility. All of us would get the day off from classes and we all had a big dinner." She was smiling brightly and he slowly worked over her. His eyes slowly moved to hers almost asking her to continue. She nodded watching him as he slowly moved his hands against her breasts and over her curves. "Well my company takes a huge part in Christmas. I don't know if you knew that or not. My company makes toys for children. We also donate a large amount of toys around Christmas time for parents that don't have the money to buy toys for their children."
His hands never stopped moving along her body as he continued talking. Akera listened to him but she was a bit confused on why people wouldn't have the money. "Is there a shortage of money?"
He smiled softly to her and turned his hand around asking her to turn. "Well actually no. But for some people it's harder to get money. Some jobs don't pay as much as what I make. There are some families that have trouble making enough money to even pay for their homes. So we give away toys for parents to let their children have some presents for Christmas."
Akera looked even more confused now to think that people were having trouble living. "But why are they having trouble paying for their homes. If there isn't a lack of money then why don't they have more?"
He smiled softly in understanding and gently brushed his hand against her face. "It's hard to explain hon. We will talk about it more later. I understand this is hard for you to understand." He slowly washed down her back before reaching for the shower head. Rinsing out her fur he watched as the lather fell down her figure. Turning the water off he gently moved his hands down her body ringing out the water.
"There beautiful girl." He smiled happily and rested his forehead against hers. "Let's get you dried off then we can get lunch." She smiled happily and quickly hugged him. His arms wrapped tightly around her frame and petted down her fur. "Alright hon, come on." Pulling the door open from the shower he slowly moved both of them out. Wrapping her tightly in a plush towel he started drying her off. Hearing a knock on his door he smiled and patted her head. "Go ahead and get dried off. I will lay out an outfit for you. Come down when your ready okay?"
He left her in the bathroom as she dried herself off slowly. He opened the door and smiled to Reina on the other side. "Yes?"
"Oh... uh lunch is done Sir... Can I get you something?" He was hiding mostly behind the door as he was still undressed himself. "Oh yeah no. We will be down in a moment. She didn't want to be alone." He said in a form of expatiation.
"I understand Sir. I will be waiting for you both down stairs." She slowly walked away shaking her head. He couldn't help but smile himself as he moved to the closet. Pulling out a pressed suit he slipped it on hearing her moving around the bedroom. Her tail moved behind her as she watched him dress. "Get all dried off?"
She nodded and rested against the door frame. Her fur was still dripping a bit but she looked surprisingly dry for how long she spent. He smiled gently and slowly pulled out a dress for her. "I thought we could go out on the town tonight and celebrate your arrival. Go out to dinner or a movie." She smiled brightly and took the dress from him as her towel fell to the floor. Slipping it on over her figure he smiled watching it fall. It was a emerald dress and clung tightly against her frame. He smiled and petted along her face. "That looks beautiful on you." She smiled and her hands moved to his hips. Slowly his face moved to hers again and he kissed her softly on the cheek. "Come on. Reina will be wondering where we are."
Taking her hand he led her out of the room and towards the kitchen. Reina was waiting for them at the table. "Welcome Akera, It's lovely to meet you." Reina stood slowly and pulled out a chair for both of them. "I hope you enjoy your lunch. I will give you two some privacy." She said with a smile on her face. Sitting down the both of them smiled looking to the baked chicken and roasted potatoes. Reina started to walk away before Kain stopped her.
"Reina can you do me a favor and get us a reservation at The Spaghetti Factory. Oh and I would also like to have the Blue ribbon company come pick us up to take us around." He was the first to take a bite. He gave a sigh of approval watching as Reina smiled. "Of course Sir. Anything else I could do for you?"
He shook his head smiling as Akera ate at her chicken. "I think that is it. Thank you very much Reina." She nodded before leaving the room. Kain watched as Akera enjoyed her meal and smiled. "Is it good Akera?" She nodded happily taking another bite.
"She is a very good cook. How long have you had her employed?" She asked watching him eat. He stopped to think about it for a moment. "Well I would say about three years now. I could be wrong though."
As they enjoyed their food and almost finished Reina reappeared. "Sir I have your reservation ready and your transportation will be there and waiting for you when you finish." He nodded happily and slowly stood clearing his plate. "Thank you Reina. Would you mind cleaning up? I have some business to attend to before we go out."
"Not at all Sir. I hope you both have fun and enjoy your night." Akera stood and smiled to Reina as she followed behind Kain. Taking Akera's hand he slowly lead her to the car. "I have to meet with one of my business partners before we go to dinner."
Akera nodded softly as he helped her into the passenger seat of the car. Closing the door behind her he slowly moved around to the driver's side. Backing out of the garage he moved down the driveway. "How are you feeling after your nap? I know you were really tired after our swim."
Akera smiled softly looking to herself. "I feel better. I am really sorry I fell asleep."
He kept his eyes on the road but smiled. "It's alright hon I understand. You had a very taxing day it's only natural you would want a nap." He knew all too well it wasn't the swim or the day that made her fall asleep but he wasn't going to say anything to make her believe that. Driving down the road quickly she watched as people were watching her.
"Why are people staring?" She asked looking to him.
His eyes stayed on the road but he answered her quickly. "Well most people have never seen anyone like you. You are beautiful though darling. Don't let anyone make you think otherwise okay."
She nodded happily and watched as they grew closer to the city.
Thank you all so very much for understanding and continuing to read more to come!
