A SOUL IN TORMENT
Chapter 12: Moving in the Right Directions
When the kiss broke naturally, Ulysses raised a paw and caressed Forry's cheek.
"Thank you for the great wake up call," he murmured warmly.
"You're very welcome," Forry said smiling back at his new lover.
"I have to wonder, though, why you felt the need to push our relationship to this stage," Feral asked, a small frown on his face.
Forry sighed and a sad, haunted look flashed in his eyes briefly before he leaned close and nuzzled Ulysses reassuringly. "I thought this might help over come the bad night you had," he admitted reluctantly. Instantly, Ulysses went very still against his face. He pulled his head back to study the tom's face more closely."
"I had a nightmare didn't I?" Feral asked tightly. "I don't usually remember when I have them. Did I upset you?"
"I won't lie to you, love. It was frightening and made me so very sad but I now understand a little better just how bad it had been for you. I was glad I could comfort you and ease you back to deeper sleep but I thought perhaps pushing our relationship to the next logical step would help you get closer to bringing that nightmare to light and vanquishing it. A new love that is strong and healthy can do a lot toward fighting your demon," Forry explained gently.
Feral blinked at his lover in surprise and a bit of discomfort. It embarrassed him that Forry had been forced to experience that dark side of him. Biting his lip, he turned his head away and stared at the far wall.
"Don't retreat, my love!" Forry said urgently, nuzzling the dark furred cheek next to his nose. "You have no reason to be embarrassed. A lover shares all things bad and good in a relationship. We will conquer this....together, I promise."
Feral turned to stare into those earnest copper eyes and saw heartfelt sincerity and love. He swallowed, his throat tight with overwhelming emotions of tenderness and the beginning echoes of the love he saw shining down on him.
"I'll try, Forry. It's a terrible thing and so strong that I have yet to be able to face it head on. Perhaps you're right, our new love will be what breaks through the wall I've built around the memory. I fervently hope so."
"That's the spirit, love. Now how about we get cleaned up, we've got work to get to," Forry said impishly, giving Feral a hard kiss then climbing out of the bed to head for the bathroom, pausing at the door to give the dark tom a 'come hither' look filled with promise.
Feeling better and more hopeful than he'd had in so very long, Feral quickly scrambled out of the bedding and chased after his lover.
More than an hour later, he walked into Enforcer Headquarters with a strong, purposeful step and determination that he could handle whatever the day presented him including the case of the raped young tom.
Felina met him at his door, an unhappy and worried look on her face. Frowning, he said nothing as he nodded to her and headed on into his office, taking off his coat and hanging it before striding across the floor to his pedestal desk.
Once settled, he steeled himself to hear what she had to say.
Felina studied her uncle carefully as he settled at his desk. He looked good this morning. 'Perhaps he had spent the time with his new friend. I hope so because he's going to need that support to get through what I'm going to tell him,' she thought worriedly.
"Uncle, you are going to be unhappy with me but Sgt Fallon and I felt it best I try to handle this case on my own. Unfortunately, despite all the evidence we've gathered we have no idea who is doing this or why," she said briskly then went on to give a concise report on what had been going on over the last four months.
He worked hard to listen to the facts and not allow an emotional connection to happen that would break his concentration. He felt rather proud that, except for a momentary tightening of his gut, he did manage to listen dispassionately.
When she finally finished, he got up from his seat and went to the wall of windows and stared out. Leaving the rape out of it, he focused on the why someone would do this to males working within city hall.
He agreed with Felina, someone was trying to find an 'in' to the government by trying to find a way to mind control someone to do their spy or sabotage work.
Turning back, he said, ".....and you haven't found a link to who could be doing this?"
"No Uncle," Felina sighed in disgust. Inwardly, she was pleased to see he was handling the news very well. "All evidence was wiped clean. All we know is they are using some kind of new type of mind drug and that only city officials were being kidnapped, experimented on, then disposed of. No idea if whoever it is, has perfected their drug or not nor what their long term goal is."
"I would have to say it smacks of Dark Kat, though, I have to admit he isn't known for using this method. That is more along the line of Viper but not exactly," he rumbled angrily, stalking back to his desk and sitting down.
Felina sucked in a breath. "Crud! You may be right uncle! Though he usually uses technical methods, this still sounds like one of his long range plans to take over the city."
"Until we know otherwise, it might be wise to be on the look out for him," Feral growled.
"Yes sir! I'll get the word out to the troops and perhaps step up patrols to monitor the rest of the lower level officials of city hall that might be targeted."
"Good idea, Felina. Do that and this time, keep me in the loop," Feral said firmly.
"I will Uncle," she said, relief in her voice as she smartly turned about and left his offices.
He sighed and shook himself. He felt amazed that he actually made it through that harrowing briefing and didn't fall apart. If he just continued to think of it as an investigation and not something that had anything to do with his past, he could focus more fully on the fact this was a very serious matter and a definite threat to the city.
Scowling at the thought that Dark Kat could indeed be behind this, he decided to dig into the reports Felina had left him, searching for any clues she might have missed.
Several hours later he was forced to conclude that despite all the evidence, just as Felina had said there was nothing to connect Dark Kat with the kidnapping but he couldn't shake the feeling the evil tom was responsible.
He hated the fact they would have to wait and see what happens next. Waiting on an omega to make a move was what they were forced to do far too often and he was so hardily tired of being on the defensive all the time.
Putting that mystery aside for now, he dug into the rest of his workload waiting for his attention.
Some weeks passed and the relationship between Feral and his new lover, Forry blossomed and deepened. At first, Forry kept their interactions purely in the foreplay arena but gradually the sexual tension increased and the inevitable occurred.
During this time of growing closeness, Feral had only had two more episodes of nightmares, much to his anguished shame. Forry worked hard to ease him through them and continually reassured his lover of his devotion toward him which helped Feral get past the incidents more quickly.
After the second nightmare had occurred, the next morning, near dawn, Forry listened alertly when Uly awakened him moaning. The tom muttered incoherently in his sleep but didn't seem to be distressed.
He decided Uly needed something more substantial than what they'd been doing lately, to prove to the tom that his lover would not be put off by the nightmares and would always be by his side no matter what.
To that end, Forry began laying warm kisses and licking the big tom's neck and shoulders. His paws caressed the broad chest pinching and rolling the nipples between his fingers until they drew up in taut peaks.
Uly sighed and began moaning in pleasure. Smirking, Forry continued his erotic touches. He stroked the hard muscles of his lover's lower abdomen as he reached the object of his morning's exploration. Grasping Uly's cock firmly in his paw he began a slow up and down stroke.
The dark tom woke and groaned moving his hips to encourage his lover to greater efforts. But Forry had other plans that didn't include getting Uly off so quickly.
When Forry suddenly stopped touching him, Ulysses rolled over to stare at his lover in confusion.
Forry smiled "I have something else in mind this morning, my love. I want you to do something for me that you'll enjoy." Getting up on his paws and knees, he instructed his novice lover in the art of rimming and preparing his lover. He'd done some preliminary things with Uly over the past few weeks so it wasn't completely unfamiliar.
Smiling wickedly, Ulysses proceeded to follow his lover's instructions to the letter. He was soon rewarded with Forry's moans of pleasure and cries of need.
Panting and hot, Forry quickly had Uly lay down on his back. Uly's erection was jutting proudly from its nest of dark fur weeping with clear fluid. Smiling down at his lover, Forry straddled Uly's hips and slowly and carefully slid the hard cock into his hot channel.
Both of them groaned at the incredible sensation. It was slow going due to Uly's large size but soon Forry had managed to take the whole hard spear within himself. After sitting still a few minutes to get used to the huge cock stretching him to his limit, he began a slow rocking movement. Leaning forward, he traded hot, passionate kisses with Uly.
'Oh God! This is soo good!' Feral moaned in surprised heat. He never dreamed intercourse could be this wonderful. He could feel his barbs rubbing Forry's hot channel sending zings of intense pleasure up his spine. The squeezing pressure and friction was driving him out of his mind. Panting he thrust up against Forry's downward movement.
Pressure boiled up from his balls and he couldn't hold back very long because the feelings and this being his first time were too much to hold back. As Forry's ass clenched him hard, Uly gave it up and came screaming, filling his lover with a hot wave of seed.
Uly's orgasm launched Forry into his own climax. Shouting for joy his own cock sprayed Uly's chest with white cream. Shuddering, he collapsed limply over Uly's chest as he tried to catch his breath. Through his ear he could hear the hard thumping of his lover's own heart and Uly's harsh breaths as he recovered too. It was some minutes later when the now soft cock slid from his channel making him moan at its loss.
When he could finally raise his head, Forry stared into a pair of blissful gold eyes and a huge grin splitting his lover's face.
"Wow! So that's what intercourse is like! I love it!" Feral grinning giddily.
"I can safely say, I've never enjoyed a ride so much in my life. You're amazing, my love. An absolutely incredible ride I want to repeat again and again!" Forry said with heartfelt sincerity as he leaned close and kissed his lover deeply.
Feral groaned under the hot kiss, his mind riding high with lovely endorphins and singing for joy that his first time had been so incredibly wonderful. He was one lucky tom!
