On the other side of town, Camellia Leaps rode her rhea through the trees that lined the path to the road. It had taken her some time to ride through her family's north pasture as their property was fairly large, though not nearly as large as many of the large bunny families who farmed the countryside farther outside of town. Still, it took time to ride across, but she finally made it. She then led her rhea through the gate that opened to the path she was currently riding along, all the while remembering how her brother Ryan had given Daisy a passionate kiss which she had eagerly returned.
Biting her lip, Camellia wondered for the hundredth time if it would feel just as wonderful if Jaxon were to kiss her. Jaxon Forester was the bobcat she had gone to school with from middle school all the way through high school, with them being in the same graduating class (they graduated 2 years ago). And every time that one of her friends had gone off about kissing whatever buck they were currently dating, Camellia couldn't help but wonder what kissing Jaxon would feel like.
Yes, she had kissed a few bucks in her time, mostly due to her friends' nagging her about her lack of 'experience,' but she had never let the bucks steal more than a modest kiss from her. She had never felt like giving them more because she always found the bucks…lacking. They all lacked that extra little something she was looking for (not that she would have done much more than kissing back in high school—Camellia did have her standards, after all!). It wasn't a buck's flat, dull teeth she wanted to feel brush her lips while kissing a guy, but a predator's sharp, pointed teeth. Specifically, she wanted to feel Jaxon's teeth.
And if Ryan was right about Jaxon wanting to date her, she might finally get to experience all that she had been secretly hungering for. With this thought in mind, she began humming a hopeful little tune as she rode along. As she finally made it to the paved road, Camellia turned her rhea towards Jaxon's house and rode another 10 minutes past several fields of cultivated blackberries, raspberries, loganberries, and, of course, the boysenberry which was a cross between all three.
On the other side of the lane was an orchard of cultivated chokecherry trees. Birds loved the berries, and they were great for making jams, jellies, pies, syrup, and even wine, but the trees with the small, mildly sweet berries had to be grown away from other fruit trees because they often harbored pests such as the tent caterpillar. Anyone cultivating chokecherries had to frequently check them for the pests because if the caterpillars migrated to other fruit trees, they could devastate the whole crop.
Chokecherries also had to be properly fenced to keep kits away from them as the leaves, bark, and even the beautiful white or pale-pink blossoms were poisonous as they produced cyanide. Wilted leaves were especially toxic as the wilting process caused the leaves to emit large quantities of cyanide. And when cooking with chokecherries, the pits had to be removed first because cooking chokecherry pits, the same with peaches and nectarine pits, releases the cyanide contained within them. But once the pits were removed, the chokecherries were safe to eat.
After passing the berry fields and the chokecherry orchard, Camellia turned down the backwoods lane that crept along the outskirts of the Forester's property. The old country lane was lined with tall oak and elm trees that formed a tunnel of overarching branches that only let patches of bright sunlight shine down on the road, while subdued, filtered sunlight made its way through in others. It had a calm romantic feel to it and Camellia wouldn't mind riding down it with Jaxon or snuggled together in a bird-drawn carriage.
Wintertime was especially beautiful when the snow fell heavily and covered everything in its glittering white. Snuggling under a thick blanket with Jaxon while riding in a bird-drawn sleigh would be magical. Smiling dreamily while caught up in her fantasies, Camellia almost rode right past Jaxon's long, dirt and gravel driveway. Jaxon's family raised free-range chickens for their eggs, as well as quail and pheasants for their eggs and their meat. Theirs wasn't a huge bird-farm, as they mostly just raised them to sell locally, but whenever they had a surplus, they would ship the extra eggs and meat out to Badger Grove which had a much larger predator population, many of which were the smaller predators who preferred the smaller birds for eating.
As the trees thinned out, the Forester's white house with gold trim came into view. The front lawn was green and about due to mowed again and was surrounded by a pale-gold picket fence. The gate was open with a large lilac bush growing at either side. The rest of the gold picket fence was lined with azalea bushes of all colors (pink, purple, blue, yellow, and white), interspersed with dwarf Summer Lilac bushes (also known as butterfly bushes as butterflies loved them!).
As she rode past the trees along the long circular driveway, Camellia started biting her lip again. Although Ryan told her Jaxon was interested in dating her, and even though it had felt like he wanted to ask her out a hundred times before, it was still nerve wracking to come right out and ask him. What if he said no!? With a flick of her cottony tan and white tail, Camellia then thought, 'Holy crow, what if he actually said yes!' With this thought in mind, Camellia pushed her tired rhea into a full trot for the last 50 feet.
Nearing the picket fence, she slowed her rhea down in a cloud of dust and gravel as the rhea's sharp talons kicked up the small rocks and dirt. At a more sedate pace, they rode through the open gate and along the stone path to the front porch (painted pale gold). Reining the rhea to a stop, Camellia didn't immediately dismount as she was trying to gather up the courage to actually ask the bobcat out.
Taking a deep breath, she once more told herself that, yes, Jaxon could say 'no' but if he did say 'yes' then her life could finally begin. Ever since she graduated high school, she felt like she was just drifting through life and not actually living it. She wanted to get married and start a family, but she didn't want a dull buck who lacked that little extra 'umph' in their relationship that she always felt when she was hanging out with Jaxon. He was the only one she wanted to marry and no matter what any of her friends or sisters said, she just couldn't force herself to settle for some plain, old buck (even if he was young!).
Wanting to feel that little 'umph' of excitement again, Camellia took a deep breath, then swung out of the saddle before tying her rhea to the porch railing. Giving the tired bird a soothing pat on the neck, she then turned and walked up the steps. Wringing her fingers for a moment as nervous butterflies attacked her stomach, she then reached up and rang the doorbell. Nibbling on her thumb-claw, Camellia sincerely hoped Jaxon opened the door and not his parents or one of his siblings (Jaxon was the middle of five, and his two younger sisters still lived at home as they were finishing up high school next year).
The heavens must have been listening to her silent plea because when the door opened, none other than Jaxon, in all his stout and muscular, predatory bobcat glory, stood on the other side. With a smile somewhere between happy and anxious, Camellia said, "Hi, Jaxon, do you have a minute to talk?"
Baffled by Camellia's sudden appearance, Jaxon wasn't sure what to think as she had never stopped by his place since before their graduation. He couldn't begin to imagine what had brought the pretty bunny doe to his front steps. Not that he minded seeing her. He could never get enough of seeing Camellia, especially here at his house. "Uh, sure, I got a minute," he finally answered. Stepping out onto the porch (with Camellia's obvious nervousness, he didn't want to subject her to his family's prying eyes and ears), Jaxon shut the door behind him and asked, "What do you need?"
Biting her lip while wringing her paws together again, Camellia didn't immediately answer him. Finally, she stammered, "Jaxon would you…" She shook her head and started again, "Do you want to…" Still not right. Why was talking to her kithood friend so hard all of sudden!? Sweet nectarines, this was Jaxon, after all—the fun-loving boy she could always tell anything to since middle school, and who was always trying to make her laugh with his funny antics, or some joke he'd heard.
Seeing his friend's nervous questions, Jaxon started getting nervous himself which had his short bob of a tail flicking restlessly behind him. What did she want him to do? Did he do something that somehow upset her? Did she want him to stop whatever it was that was bugging her? He couldn't think of anything that would upset her, but since she was a jackrabbit—prey—he might be doing something as a predator that offended her. But why would she just now be telling him? Especially now, as they only saw each other infrequently ever since graduation?
Jaxon was feeling so confused right now, but if he was unintentionally doing something to offend Camellia, then that would just about kill him. He'd been trying to impress her ever since she first caught his eye back in middle school, though he didn't realize what he was feeling till their first year in high school and some dumb jock from the football team asked her out on a date—right in front of him no less! The sudden urge to shove the buck's head in the nearest trash bin took him by surprise, and it was a while before he figured out he was feeling jealous. Of course, watching Camellia turn the buck down flat had him floating on Cloud 9.
With the butterflies doing backflips in her stomach, Camellia wrung her poor fingers a moment longer, then took a deep breath and suddenly blurted out, "Jaxon, will you date me?" With her nose twitching nervously, she quickly added, "I mean, like seriously date me, you know…romantically?"
Jaxon's eyes widened as his heart skipped a beat…and then another. This was the last thing he expected to hear from the bunny he'd had a huge crush on since before high school. He had always hoped she wanted to date him, but since they were already 20 and Camellia had never said anything to him or went out of her way to spend time with him after their graduation, he assumed it would never happen. So, for her to suddenly ask him out had his confused, feline head spinning.
Studying Camellia's hopeful, anxious face, Jaxon asked, "Are you sure you want to date me?" He pointed to himself with one long-clawed finger. At his friend's earnest expression as she repeatedly nodded her head, Jaxon knew this wasn't a joke, Camellia seriously wanted to date him. She actually wanted to be with him. Him—a predator, no less! "But, but you're gorgeous…and I'm…I'm just me—you know—a bobcat!"
Giggling softly as her nose and ears turned a dark pink at his compliment, Camellia replied, "But that's why I like you." Looking his fit, muscular figure up and down a moment, she added, "You're not just a predator and a bobcat, but you're my best friend and, well, you're—you." Meeting his shocked gaze with a firm one of her own that was filled with love and adoration for the handsome bobcat, Camellia said, "I don't want to be with anyone else."
With his heart beating a mile a minute, Jaxon took a deep breath while trying to remain in control of his soaring emotions. He had been dreaming and hoping and praying for this day for so long that there was no way to control his joy. Stepping forward, he wrapped one large paw around Camellia's lower back and the other around the back of her head and mashed his lips against hers. Feeling the bunny freeze in his arms (with the exception of her little tan nose that was now twitching like crazy), Jaxon feared he'd just made a monumental blunder. She asked him to date her, not kiss her!
As Jaxon pulled back from the sudden kiss, Camellia blinked as her nose continued to twitch. The kiss hadn't lasted nearly long enough. As her brain re-engaged, she realized her lack of response was probably the cause. Not wanting Jaxon to think he had done something wrong, and not wanting the kiss to end yet, Camellia grabbed his shirt and pulled him back down as she stood up on her tiptoes. Pressing her lips to Jaxon's once more, she 'hmmm' in contentment, even as she melted into his embrace.
Jaxon growled low at her eager response to the kiss, and he couldn't help but kiss her back just as hard. As their lips moved against each other, Jaxon was sure he had died and gone to heaven. To finally be able to kiss Camellia was amazing! She was a rabbit doe and one of his oldest, closest friends, so why did she feel so right in his arms? How could she fit so perfectly against his chest?
As Jaxon's lips moved in tandem with hers, Camellia got lost in paradise. Although this wasn't the deep, passionate kiss that Ryan and Daisy had shared, it was still magical. Why did she wait so long to ask Jaxon out? She had been so dumb to think a relationship between them couldn't work simply because he was a predator and she was prey. As friends went, Jaxon was her best male friend so why did she think a romantic relationship wouldn't work between them?
Tilting his head as he continued the kiss, Jaxon slipped the paw on her back lower and felt her tail vibrating with her happiness. With a soft growl, he grabbed her flickering, silky, cotton ball tail.
Camellia 'eeped' at suddenly feeling her tail in his strong paw, though she had no desire for him to remove it. Feeling his large paw on her tail was a guilty pleasure she had been dying to experience and Jaxon didn't disappoint her.
Pulling back from the kiss, with both grinning like fools, Jaxon tugged gently on her tail and asked, "Does this bother you?"
Camellia immediately shook her head. "No, it feels really good." Biting her lip briefly, she added, "I've actually been wanting you to play with my tail since high school."
A wide grin spread across Jaxon's face as he switched from his fingers to his claws. "And this?"
Camellia gasped, then buried her face in the bobcat's wide chest as she leaned into him. "You have no idea how good that feels, Jaxon," she murmured into his shirt.
Jaxon chuckled. Seeing how much Camellia enjoyed his kisses and claws had him soaring to the moon. He also felt like slapping himself to make sure he was actually awake, but there was no way the love-drunk bobcat was going to let go of her fluffy, little tail just yet.
Jaxon had been secretly wanting to play with her fluffy cotton ball tail since middle school and the feel of it in his paw now felt way better than anything he had ever imagined before. Her silky tail in his paw felt almost sinful—she was a bunny for crying out loud! As a predator, getting slapped with a sexual harassment charge for touching a bunny's tail, even by accident, was a very real thing here in Bunnyburrow. But Camellia actually wanted him to touch hers!
Drowning in the wonderful sensation of her new boyfriend's claws combing through her tail, Camellia lifted her face and let go of his shirt. Reaching up, she wrapped her paws around his neck and pulled Jaxon back down for another heated kiss. After a moment, she released him to ask, "Do you know how long I've wanted to kiss you?"
Jaxon raised a brow, even as his ear flicked. "You could've kissed me any time, you know. I wouldn't have minded."
Camellia's ear flicked, as her nose slowed down its twitching. Nibbling on her lip a moment, she then explained, "I'm a rabbit doe and among us rabbits, the buck usually makes the first move. The rabbit does who make the first move are usually teased as 'easy tails' by their brothers and sisters, and sometimes their classmates."
Caressing his bunny girlfriend's cheek, Jaxon murmured, "But I couldn't ask you first, or kiss you without you first speaking your desires." At Camellia's blank stare, Jaxon explained to her how they have predator etiquette classes after school teaching them how to act around prey, especially here in Bunnyburrow where so many skittish species resided, mainly the bunnies, prairie dogs, and sheep.
Jaxon also pointed out how, if he had kissed her first or had been the one to ask her out, he could have been accused of 'preying' on her. That mammals around town would gossip that since he was a large predator, he must have used his sharp claws and teeth to intimidate her into being with him.
Camellia's eyes widened in horror. Shaking her head, she murmured, "No, Jaxon, no! There's no way you would ever hurt me, nor could I ever be afraid of you! I love your teeth and claws. I find them fascinating!"
With his short tail wagging back and forth, Jaxon couldn't believe how good it felt to hear the girl of his dreams tell him how much she was fascinated by his natural weapons, or that she would never fear him. Her trust and faith in him made his heart beat faster with happiness and love for the beautiful jackrabbit he'd fallen for all those years ago. Caressing her cheek again, Jaxon took a deep breath and tried to rein in his emotions. With a shrug he said, "Doesn't matter what you think when the masses say otherwise."
Camellia's ears drooped at learning how predators were treated so differently than she was. She knew there was prejudice against them, but hadn't realized it manifested in such a way, that how predators were being treated was built into every level of Bunnyburrow society, that it was built into the very fibers of the community. Talk about living in a bubble! Jaxon was her best friend as far as males went and yet she knew nothing about any of this. What was she doing with all her time? Did she spend the last 8 years with her head stuck in a hole (that's how long she'd known Jaxon)?
"I'm sorry, Jaxon," Camellia said as she looked up with wide eyes that were starting to shimmer with unshed tears. "I had no clue you would have been treated so, so shamefully just for asking me out!"
Jaxon's heart skipped a beat as Camellia turned her heart-wrenchingly cute doe eyes on him. He knew bunnies were cute, and they could be lethal at times, but he had never had one turn their cuteness on him like this. Camellia's expression was so full of heartfelt emotion as she wore her heart on her sleeve—he simply couldn't take it!
Reaching forward, he pulled her back into a quick, deep kiss, one where he made sure to taste her as his tongue made a quick sweep of her mouth. Releasing her from the kiss, he licked his lips while pulling her against his chest and wrapping his arms around her. "Camellia, what am I going to do with you?" At her clueless shrug, he explained, "You can't look at a guy like that. It makes us want to gobble you up."
With a light chuckle, Camellia murmured, "I'll remember that when I'm with any other guy, but when it's just us, I won't mind you eating me."
Jaxon froze, then groaned as he tightened his arms around his new bunny girlfriend. "Please don't give me any ideas."
Giggling, Camellia wrapped her arms around her handsome, new bobcat boyfriend and answered, "Well, I guess it is too early to be thinking about eating me, we should probably date for a few weeks at least, and I would like to have a ring on my finger first, but in the meantime, a little light 'snacking' wouldn't be that bad, would it?"
Jaxon stood frozen in her arms as she looked up at him with a glowing, hopeful expression. Feeling like he had been mentally run over by a Mack truck at what Camellia had already envisioned for their relationship, he could only get out a dumb, "Huh?" And what exactly did she mean by 'snacking'?
With another giggle, Camellia said, "It was too short."
Tilting his head, Jaxon asked, "What was too short?" Jaxon was still hung up on the idea of eating this delectable bunny in his arms—after he put a ring on her finger, no less—and so was struggling to follow the conversation.
"The kiss," Camellia answered. "It was over before it really got started." Giving him a no-nonsense stare, she informed him, "I insist that you 'snack' on me some more because I haven't had nearly enough of your kisses."
Jaxon's tail began wagging non-stop at his girlfriend's incendiary words, but before he could happily give in to her demands, they heard a chair scrape across a hardwood floor, signifying someone was getting up from the dining room table. Feeling like they were about to get caught with their paws in the cookie jar, Jaxon asked Camellia if she wanted to go for a walk, to which she readily agreed. Kissing on Jaxon's front porch probably wasn't the smartest idea, especially after hearing how other mammals around town might accuse him of forcing himself on her if they saw the doe wrapped in her predatory boyfriend's big, strong arms.
Paw in paw, they strode around the side of Jaxon's house as they headed towards the woods beyond the fence, and a small creek beyond that. As they disappeared, a pair of wide golden eyes were staring at the spot on the porch where the two lovebirds had been kissing.
Jaxon's younger sister, Nannette, had gotten up to answer the door, but her brother beat her to it. She had intended to go back to her room but upon hearing Camellia Leaps asking to talk to Jaxon, her curiosity had gotten the better of her (she was a cat, after all). Moving to the living room window, she spied on them from over the back of the couch. She couldn't hear most of what they were saying, but she distinctly heard Camellia ask her brother to date her. The bunny was pretty loud when she blurted it out, and then watching them kiss afterwards had further stunned her.
Although the jackrabbit doe had been a really good friend of her brother all through middle school and high school…still—she was a bunny! Why would a bunny ask her brother to date her? Interspecies relationships weren't that popular, though they didn't bother her, but Nannette had seen first-paw how most bunnies viewed predators—so why was Camellia asking her brother to date her? That went against just about everything most bunnies believed in!
But then again, Camellia was a jackrabbit, not a rabbit, and jackrabbits tended to be more open-minded than their burrowing cousins. Nanette secretly thought it had to do with the fact jackrabbits lived out in the open which gave them a broader worldview. Rabbits who liked to live underground in such a closed-off world had such a narrow way of thinking. Nanette really couldn't understand them.
While thinking of the differences between rabbits and jackrabbits, Camellia walked back towards her room in a daze—Jaxon kissed a bunny and she actually kissed him back! Before she made it to the safety of her room, though, her dad stopped her and asked who was at the door.
Looking over to meet her dad's gaze while her brain was still in a fog over a bunny kissing a bobcat, Nannette answered, "Camellia Leaps." Surprised by her answer, her dad asked what the jackrabbit had come by for? Still in a daze while trying to wrap her head around the fact the bunny wanted to date a bobcat, Nannette thoughtlessly answered, "She wanted to see if Jaxon would date her."
Her dad's ears flicked back in a humorless scowl and then he said in a stern voice, "Nannette, that's not funny. Joking about something like that could get a boy like Jaxon in a whole lot of trouble."
Nannette blinked. "I'm not joking. Camellia really did ask Jaxon to…" Finally realizing who she was talking to and what she was admitting to her father, Nannette tried backtracking. "Um, you know, I really didn't hear what all they were talking about. All I know for sure is that Jaxon and Camellia went for a walk and will be back later." With a nervous, little laugh, Nannette added, "Uh, I'm gonna go back to reading my book." With a nod at her father's irritated scowl, she escaped back into her room.
Closing the door, Nannette leaned against it with a heavy sigh. How could she be so stupid as to tell her dad that Camellia wanted to date Jaxon!? Talk about a dumb move! How many times had Jaxon covered for her when she wanted to sneak out and meet with a boy down by the creak for a romantic rendezvous, and here she was ratting him out the first chance she got! Stupid! Stupid! Stupid! At least she hadn't said anything about them kissing! That would have sealed Jaxon's fate!
With a heavy sigh, Nannette tried to get back into her book, but she couldn't concentrate. She kept wondering what Jaxon and Camellia were doing? Were they actually talking or were they deep in the woods, making out like two-hormone crazed teens? Nannette knew Jaxon had never really cared much for the girls he had dated in the past, but seeing him with Camellia today, she was starting to see why his previous dates all failed. He wasn't interested in another feline but in a bunny. Talk about strange tastes! But if he was happy with Camellia, then she would support them.

Judy slipped into her room and shut the door behind her, then leaned against it with a heavy sigh. If she wanted to spend any time alone with Nick, then it was imperative that she wasn't caught sneaking through the burrow. This made her stealthy trip through the burrow a nerve-racking one. Luckily, the Ugly Bug Ball had everyone's attention outside with setting up the outside bandstand to the left of the house/burrow and putting chairs and blankets out on the lawn in front of it for everyone to sit on.
But even with all the commotion outside, Judy was surprised to make it to her room unseen—but thank heavens that she did! Since she was such great friends with not only a fox, but a city fox, and with her being the reason he was even here singing tonight, if anyone saw her sneaking through the burrow, she would probably face an inquisition squad. Judy wasn't quite sure what Nick had said about their time in Zootopia or how they became friends, but she was sure they'd want to interrogate her on whether he spoke the truth or not (he was a fox, after all, and most of her family didn't trust them).
After her track record with Gideon mauling her, Judy knew her siblings would want to make sure Nick was a real friend and was treating her right. But still, the idea that her family would question his integrity simply because he was a fox had a scowl briefly cross her face.
Taking a deep breath, Judy wiped a paw down her ears while pushing the irritation down, then stepped away from the door and pulled out her phone. Sending Marty another quick text, Judy then pulled up the music playlist she had made of the songs that reminded her of Nick (I Need You by LeAnn Rimes first came on) and put her phone on her dresser (she needed noise in the room to help drown out any noises she and Nick might make).
Next, she flipped on her bedside lamp (since her room was underground, she had a soft, blue nightlight on in her room that allowed her to see what was on the floor), then began pulling off her clothes. Tossing her shirt on the bed and wriggling out of her pants, she entered her closet in nothing but her bra and underwear. It was a walk-in closet, and as she neared the back, Judy bent down to pull out a box of clothes she no longer wore but didn't want to get rid of: her high school and college graduation robes, the kit-sized cop costume she wore for her Carrot's Day play, and, of course, the embarrassing presents her siblings had given her.
With the chorus of the song, "I Need You" playing, 'I need you like water, like breath, like rain…I need you like mercy from heaven's gate. There's a freedom in your arms that carries me through…I need you…' Judy pulled the box to the middle of the closet while thinking how well the song portrayed her feelings about Nick—having experienced him once, she could no longer live without him. He was the hope that moved her to courage and the love that rescued her when the cold winds raged. With a deep breath as butterflies fluttered in her stomach, Judy knew there was no turning back for her now.
Kneeling on the floor, she opened the box and started digging through it. The first thing she came to that was of interest was a black string bikini with large purple pansies covering it. The pansies were the same shade as her eyes, and Judy wondered where her sisters found it. She liked the pattern on the bathing suit—now if it just had a bit more (a lot more) material to it, it wouldn't be stuffed in this box. She had only worn it once when her sisters forced her into it, but she never left the room in it. Now she finally had a use for it.
Since Nick was coming on the trip with her and seeing as there was a hot spring near her cabin, Judy would wear it for him. The butterfly one-piece that was already packed in her bags she would wear while she was with the others, but when it was just her and Nick, she would wear the bikini…until he took it off her, of course. This thought had Judy blushing, but she couldn't deny how much she was looking forward to the experience.
Setting the bikini aside, Judy started digging through the box again until she came up with two more outfits, although, with as little and as thin as the material was, Judy questioned if 'outfit' was the correct term. These two 'outfits' Judy had flat out refused to put on, no matter how loudly her sisters cried and ridiculed her for being a stuffy old spinster.
Even now, the thought of wearing them was highly embarrassing and had her ears and nose turning bright red. But she would be wearing them for Nick, and just imagining his expression and his body's response when he saw her in one had Judy's abdominal muscles clenching in anticipation, even as she felt herself starting to get wet. The thought of Nick licking his lips when he saw her, of his sharp teeth and criminal claws eager to feel her tender flesh again as he tasted deeply of her sweet juices sealed her decision.
Taking them and the bikini back into her room, Judy set them on her desk as she wondered which of the two sheer lingerie would be best to wear right now. She had a black lacy one and an amethyst lacey one. Both had their perks, but Judy ultimately decided on the amethyst one to bring out the color of her eyes. The black one would be better used at night, she thought, somewhere dark where they could be alone for hours with no worries of a hated interruption.
Leaving the black lingerie and the bikini on her desk, Judy turned towards her bed and set the amethyst lingerie down and unfolded it. This revealed the matching lacy thong that went with it. Judy frowned at the thong. She hated wedgies. Even to impress Nick, she didn't want to wear it. With a smirk she threw it on top of her dresser. It would just get in the way, anyways.
As the next song began playing, "Heaven Is a Place on Earth" by Belinda Carlisle, Judy stripped off her bra and underwear while hoping she and Nick really could make a heaven on earth for themselves, that her family wouldn't try and break them up…or anyone else in town for that matter. Knowing they weren't alone, that Ryan and Daisy were also a couple, gave her hope for a bright heavenly future with her handsome, drool-worthy fox.
Thinking about how well the next line fit her, 'When the night falls down, I wait for you and you come around…' Judy quickly put on the purple lingerie then stepped up to her full-length mirror and her blush returned in full force. Unlike the black lingerie that was a single piece that hung down to the tops of her thighs and teased the viewer with the V wear her legs met, this purple one left even less up to the imagination. And since she wasn't wearing the skimpy thong, it really left nothing up to the imagination.
Regarding the black one, Judy knew how much it covered because her sisters had held it up to her after giving her the gift as her high school graduation present, then they eagerly told her how much it'll drive her buck crazy by giving him a sneak peek at her 'rabbit hole'. The whole thing had embarrassed her to no end (which was her sisters' intentions) and Judy swore there wasn't a buck alive that could possibly give her a reason to wear it. Well, when it came to bucks, she still had no use for it, but now that she was married (and mated!) to Nick, she finally found her reason to wear it.
Closing her eyes again, Judy pictured her handsome mate's sparkling green eyes popping some moonlit-filled night. Seeing the way his hungry eyes ate up her young, muscular figure before he ran those strong paws and sharp claws all over her eager body before pinning her to the wall…or the bed…well, against anything, really. This would be more than enough payback for all the teasing she had to endure from all her dumb sisters who couldn't leave well enough alone.
At least she had lingerie to wear for Nick now. Silver lining and all, right? With a hum of desire while still imagining her hot fox devouring her, Judy opened her eyes and looked down at the sheer fabric she was wearing.
The purple lingerie was her college graduation present, and it was a little different from the black one. With this one, the lacy material overlapped in the front, beneath her breasts, which allowed it to part in the middle. The overlapping lacy material formed a dark purple arrow that traveled down her stomach and pointed to her navel. That's right—her navel—not the delta between her legs. At the bottom of the arrow, which stopped at her bellybutton, the material parted as the lacy material traveled around to her back.
This meant that a triangular patch of her white fur was exposed starting at her bellybutton and traveling down to her legs. Since she refused to wear the uncomfortable, lacy thong, nothing was covering her silver and white 'bunny trail' heading down to her waist. Nibbling on her lip, Judy hoped Nick appreciated what she was doing for him because there was no way she would be caught dead wearing this for anyone else. They couldn't pay her enough to wear it for anyone else.
Nick, of course, was well worth it, though. Her handsome fox appreciated her in a way that no one else ever had, and certainly not any of the lame bucks who tried to court her. They never cared about her hopes and dreams—the bunny she was. They only cared about what they could get from her—a bedwarmer and a bunch of squalling babies and toddlers running around underfoot. But to Nick, she was so much more. She wasn't just his girlfriend or his wife—she was his mate, the cornerstone of his world. He loved her for who she was right now, in this very moment. And Nick would do whatever it took to help her fulfill her dreams—whatever they might be now.
With a bright blush on her face, Judy stepped away from the mirror and walked to the wall behind the door. Her first thought had been to wait for Nick on the bed in a seductive pose, but she feared Marty might catch sight of her in the short amount of time the door was open. She didn't think he'd intentionally look, but she wanted to avoid all possibilities of anyone but Nick seeing her in such a skimpy, revealing outfit that left everything below her bellybutton on full display. No, this tantalizing display was for her wonderful fox and nobody else!
Instead, she waited for Nick behind her bedroom door and hoped it wouldn't take him long to arrive. Besides feeling embarrassed at wearing lingerie for the first time, she missed Nick something fierce, and just thinking of seeing him again—and everything that was sure to follow—had her rubbing her thighs together in eager anticipation as she felt herself getting even wetter. After all, Nick had already shown her once this evening how incredible it was to be with a fox, and Judy knew that her time earlier with Nick was just the beginning of everything her sexy mate had in store for her—and she couldn't wait to begin the next round.
Closing her eyes and leaning her head back against the wall while the next song began, This Kiss by Faith Hill, Judy raised her paw and lightly fingered her lips while remembering the feel of Nick's warm lips on hers and the taste of him on her tongue, even as she remembered the feel of that long, hot tongue of his both in her mouth and…other places. 'But you got me like a rocket, shooting straight across the sky…' the music continued playing. This was truly how Nick's kisses made her feel.
Before her fantasies could go any further, there was a light tap on the door and then it cracked open. Judy held her breath at seeing Nick's familiar orange and white muzzle, followed by the rest of his drool-worthy form. Seeing his long bushy tail again made her want to snuggle into it while burying her face in its fluffy softness. As her eyes traveled up his tail, she licked her lips when her gaze landed on his firm butt in his black jeans, even as Nick closed the door without looking back behind him. Reaching over, Judy locked the door (the music drowned out the soft click the lock made).
Scanning the room, Nick wondered where his angel was hiding. Since her room was thick with her scent, it made it difficult for him to pinpoint her by scent. The music didn't help in locating her by sound, either. 'This kiss, this kiss…Unstoppable. This kiss, this kiss…' Nick licked his lips while thinking of kissing Judy again, even as he walked towards the doors at the side of the room, one of which was her closet (the door was open), but then he froze before spinning around.
With a blink, Nick saw Judy leaning against the wall behind the door with one foot raised and resting against the wall behind her which gave him a clear view of the treasure trove between her legs. Licking the drool off his muzzle as his gaze ate her up, he fully understood why she would be hiding behind her door. With a hungry grin curling his muzzle and exposing his sharp, predatory weapons, Nick wondered if there had ever been a luckier fox than he to be able to chase down such a delectable bunny and feast on every delicious morsel of her being? No, no there wasn't.
Seeing her in such revealing lingerie, and especially seeing as she never put the bottom piece on, had Nick's pants getting really tight, really fast. Reaching up, he undid his bolo tie and tossed it on the bed, then started unbuttoning his shirt (he'd left his hat in the jeep since the others told him they usually didn't wear them inside, while Marty was holding onto his guitar as he hid out in Ben's room down the hall).
Walking towards Judy as her excited scent reached out to embrace him, Nick spoke with a wide, toothy grin. "When Shaylee told me scent marking for rabbits doesn't equate to mating, I thought I might have taken advantage of you." With his hungry eyes devouring her scantily clad body, Nick continued, "But seeing you waiting there—inviting me like this—while wearing such a…luscious…outfit makes me realize I worried for nothing."
Judy giggled as she watched Nick's shirt hit the floor while pointedly ignoring the bandage still wrapped around his middle. Meeting his smoldering gaze, she said, "Nick, the way things were going, I'd have to be a complete idiot not to realize what would happen if I scent marked you." Seeing Nick's pants hit the floor, Judy sucked in a deep breath as she felt her wetness start to leak down her legs. Nick was already at half-mast which had her abdominal muscles tightening further and her heartrate speeding up, even as she suddenly ached to feel him inside her once again.
Licking her lips as she continued staring, Judy's voice dropped to a husky whisper as she added, "The way I was feeling after you stole that first kiss and everything afterwards, I'm pretty sure I would have demanded you eat me right then and there even without the scent marking."
Nick raised a brow as he stalked towards her. "Oh? Is that so?" he asked in an equally husky whisper. Seeing how Judy reacted to seeing him naked again had Nick throbbing to satisfy the hunger in her eyes. A hunger that was mirrored in his own.
With a nod, Judy couldn't tear her gaze away from Nick's hard, quivering cock, even as her eyes followed every eager twitch that it made. "I honestly thought my drive to mate was dead, that as a rabbit I was somehow broken. I never wanted to be romantically involved with anyone. I never met anyone who made me feel any sort of desire for them—to feel their touch or to taste them. I always felt…nothing." Licking her lips again, she murmured, "But then everything woke up with that first kiss you stole from me. It felt like an electric current went through me and—mmmm!"
Having finally reached Judy, Nick bent down and stole a hot kiss from her, wondering if she would feel that electric current shocking her system awake again. With 'It's centrifugal motion, it's perpetual bliss, it's that pivotal moment…' playing in their ears, Judy eagerly kissed him back, with her tongue sliding over his sharp teeth before tangling with his own once more.
Feeling the song was right about everything that kissing Judy made him feel, Nick slid one paw across her cheek and behind her head. Holding her head still, he widened his maw and deepened the kiss, even as the fingers and claws of his other paw slipped between the opening of her lingerie and lightly grabbed one of her soft mounds.
At Judy's moan of pleasure, Nick massaged it a bit before teasing its hard peak, then switched to the other one. Nick's touch sparked another wave of desire which coursed through her, driving her absolutely batty as the pulsing ache to feel Nick inside her had her abdominal muscles clenching even tighter.
With the chorus of the next song playing, "Shouldn't I have this? Shouldn't I have all of this, and passionate kisses? Passionate kisses, whoa-oh-oh. Passionate kisses from you…" Nick paused a moment, then broke their kiss off to meet her hungry gaze. Licking his lips of her delicious flavor, he then murmured, "I'm seeing a theme to your music."
With a giggle while listening to Passionate Kisses by Mary Chapin Carpenter, Judy said innocently, "What? I'm addicted to your kisses. Besides, shouldn't I have a warm bed, food to fill me up, pens that don't run out of ink, and passionate kisses from you?" Dragging her blunt claws across his chest and down his belly, she added, "I'm not asking for too much am I? Wanting your passionate kisses and warm touch isn't going overboard, is it?"
Nick's ear flicked in contemplation of his bunny's simple request. Her facial expression and tone of voice looked and sounded so innocent, but the burning desire in her eyes was anything but innocent, as was the way her paw was scratching his belly dangerously close to his throbbing cock. With a lusty grin, Nick murmured, "Yes, yes you do." Capturing her lips again, he kissed her passionately just as she asked for, which had him growling as the dominant predator that he was, even as Judy groaned while her body responded to his hungry demands.
Breaking the kiss off again, Nick met her wanton gaze with a demanding, predatory gaze of his own, as he murmured again her soft, delicious lips, "You do realize passionate kisses aren't the only things I intend to give you, right?" Flicking the tip of his tongue out to lick her parted lips, he added, "Or take from you."
"I'm counting on it," Judy breathed against his lips while she pulled him down into another hot, demanding kiss. 'I shout it out to the night—give me what I deserve 'cause it's my right…' playing from her phone said everything she was feeling right now. After everything she and Nick had been through, she deserved this. They both did. After years of being alone, they finally had each other to fill the emptiness in their hearts and Judy wasn't letting him go. Not now. Not. Ever.
Not wanting him to take his time teasing her, Judy released his neck and moved her paws down to grab his hard cock in both her paws and began running not just her fingers and paws, but her blunt claws along his sensitive length. The way it quivered in her paws as Nick bucked slightly into her touch stroked her ego as his mate. She loved the way he reacted to her touch! That even with her lack of experience, she was able to please her predatory mate with every touch of her hot, little paw—to thrill him to the point that her 'articulate' fox was at a loss for words!
Nick growled in hunger at her touch, even as his tail curled up and nearly touched the small of his back. Returning the favor, he slid his paw down to her treasure trove and slipped his finger into her hot, drenched core. She was so wet! It didn't take long for either of them to tease the other to distraction.
Breaking off the kiss, Nick growled Judy's name hot with need into her long, sensitive ear. He needed her now! With a sultry smile, Judy murmured back in a low whisper only he could hear, "Take me, Nick. I'm all yours."
Glancing around, Nick didn't think he'd make it to the bed, but pinning Judy to the wall like he did against the tree this afternoon wasn't going to work here, seeing as there was a corridor just on the other side of the wall. After a moment's thought, Nick took a step back and spun Judy around, then pulled her against his body before picking her up. Realizing what Nick was doing, Judy put her paws on the wall to brace herself, even as she flicked her tail up to give Nick full access to her core.
With a low, eager growl, Nick slid his throbbing cock across her slick folds and between her legs, making them both groan with suppressed desire. Taking a deep breath, Nick slid his cock back across her wet folds as he pulled back, then lined himself up and forced himself inside Judy with one deep, merciless thrust, making her gasp, then moan in ecstasy. Pulling back, Nick thrust inside her again. On his third thrust, he felt his knot kiss her slick, hot folds. With a low growl, Nick hardly gave Judy a moment to adjust to his presence before chasing after both their releases.
Nick had met and mingled with his fair share of pretty vixens throughout his life, and even had a few romantic impulses about some of them, one in particular, but he had always ignored the impulses in the end. Although the vixens had a few of the qualities he was looking for in a mate, in the end, they always came up lacking. Not one of them touched him on an emotional, heartfelt level like Judy had.
But he had finally found her, his bunny mate, and had already experienced the heavenly paradise only she could give him, was even now experiencing it, and that made all his instinctive, romantic impulses he'd ever felt and ignored clamoring for him to claim Judy over and over again. He didn't want to leave any doubt in the world who her hot, little body belonged to.
With Nick's low, predatory growls filling her ears with their sweet, demanding music, Judy was in heaven. Nick filled her so completely that every one of her nerves were stimulated and left her panting with sensual delight. As Nick had never been with anyone but her, his instincts were amazing in knowing how to fully satisfy his bunny.
Of course, the fact that she was a bunny probably had a lot to do with how utterly satisfying Nick was. He was so much bigger than she was that he hardly had to move to set her nerves off, so having him moving as hard, as fast, and as deeply as he was left her feeling like a ball of over sensitized bunny that was floating far above Cloud 9 in heavenly bliss, while at the same time, it had her rolling around in sinful pleasure. And when her climax finally hit her, it was earth-shattering, drenching them both in her sweet 'bunny honey' as her dull claws clutched and clawed at her bedroom wall.
Nick had been so close but held back until Judy's climax swept through her and she clapped down on his cock in its vice-like grip. Biting the base of her ears to hold onto her, he emptied himself into her and almost knotted her before remembering she was still sore from the last time. They also didn't have time to take their time if he knotted her. As it was, Nick wanted to make the most of their stolen moments here in Judy's room—a desire his eager bunny mate clearly shared.
Releasing her ears, Nick began licking them as his tail wagged behind him. Being with a bunny was beyond ludicrous as Finn had stated among his profanity earlier, but oh, was it so, so satisfying. If someone had told him a year ago that he'd shoot past the moon and crash into Mars while rutting a bunny, he would have checked them into a mental institution without a second thought. And yet, here he was, rutting not only a bunny, but the only bunny on the planet who was also a Zootopia cop!
Nick had spent his life avoiding the ZPD and cursing their existence back in Zootopia. The only reason he gave Judy the time of day at first was because, like everyone else in the city, he just saw her as a token bunny: Lionheart's little pet project. It wasn't till he'd spent two days with her while tracking down a missing otter that he realized what an amazing cop she actually was. Out of all the officers on the Zootopia Police force, she was the only one he wanted on his tail—the only one he trusted.
Of course, seeing how their relationship was developing, that thought now took on a whole new meaning. While thinking of how satisfying it was to be on Judy's tail, Nick took a deep breath and nuzzled his angel between her ears. "Was it as good the second time as it was the first?"
With a breathless giggle, Judy murmured, "It was a hundred times better." She still couldn't believe how satisfying being with a fox was. After the way Gideon had scarred her as a kit, both physically and emotionally, it was mind boggling to see how amazing and fantastical being with Nick made her feel. His strong arms that were currently supporting her weight as their bodies were still joined, were equally capable of protecting her heart and supporting her dreams. What more could any bunny want than a strong, loving husband and mate who was their staunchest protector and supporter?
"Hmm. That good, huh?" Nick had to agree with his bunny, this time around had been a hundred times better. Her body adjusted to his presence so easily and her heady, intoxicating scent was even more addictive than it was a couple of hours ago. And, if one could believe it, she was even more reactive and sensitive to his touch than she was before which left him hungering for more. With a wide, toothy grin as he breathed deeply of her delicious scent while enjoying the way her hot body held him like a glove, Nick figured it was only going to get better from here on out.
With a nod, Judy flicked her cottony tail against Nick's stomach which brought a soft growl from him, then asked, "So how much time do you think we have?"
With a flick of his ear, Nick thought for a moment, then said, "Maybe 15, 20 minutes before they start looking for me. Everyone thinks I'm down in the music room practicing, while everyone in the music room thinks I'm helping Ben and Aaron out on Ben's Mustang Boss."
Giggling again while picturing the way Marty had played everyone in order to give her these precious moments alone with Nick, Judy pointed out, "I'm glad we don't have to run off right away, but that doesn't leave us much time, does it?"
The current song on Judy's playlist (Heartbeat Song by Kelly Clarkson) was singing, '…But I never would have had a doubt if I'd have known where I'd be now. Your paws on my hips and my kiss on your lips. So, I could do this for a long time...' This gave Nick a wicked idea. With his ears perked forward and his tail swishing behind him, he lowered his muzzle down and tickled her sensitive ear with his hot breath. With a smug smirk curling his muzzle, he asked, "Is that a challenge, my impatient little bunny?"
Judy's ears shot up at hearing the lascivious note in her fox's voice. Glancing over her shoulder, she cried, "What? No!"
"Are you sure?" Nick asked. Wiggling his hips, Judy gasped as he asked, "Shall we see how many times I can get you off in the next 10 minutes?"
Judy's eyes widened. With a shake of her head, she answered hastily, "That's not necessary—ahhhmmm—mmmm!" Nick had pulled almost completely out of her and thrust hard back inside her which set her nerves on fire again. Tipping her head back as her eyes squeezed shut, Judy pushed back into Nick as he thrust into her again. Oh, glorious day! Seeing how easily her mate was able to arouse her was truly criminal!
Thrusting once more into his sensitive bunny, Nick smirked again as he said in a husky whisper, "You were saying?" Even after enjoying his bunny twice now, before dinner and just now, he still couldn't believe how sensitive and receptive she was to his every little—and big—move he made. He loved it almost as much as he loved her, his devilish little angel.
With an exasperated snort that ended in a moan as Nick pulled out to thrust into her again, Judy muttered, "Nick, just do what you're going to do. You know I can't say no to you, not when all of my nerve endings are a live wire." With a shiver of pleasure running down her spine at his next thrust, Judy cried, "Yes!" Taking a deep breath, she moaned again while murmuring, "Being with a fox should not feel this incredible."
With his smug smile transforming into a lusty grin, Nick began nibbling on Judy's sensitive ears while wondering just how many times he could get her to climax in the next 10 minutes. The idea was intriguing, and he was eager to discover the answer. As he took Judy's hot little body to town (as it were), Nick realized being with a bunny had far more perks than he originally thought.

On the other side of Bunnyburrow, in a luxurious bedroom underground, Daisy lay on her side and stretched under the light blanket she found herself under. The blanket wasn't there when she fell asleep but remembering why she fell asleep had her blushing bright red under her black and white fur. She thought she was prepared for being with a jackrabbit—she had done her research—but Ryan recharged much faster than she had anticipated—much to her intense pleasure.
Pulling the blanket over her head, she squealed in delight and happiness at the memories. Living in a town chock-full of bunnies, Daisy had heard her fair share of miffed does complaining to their girlfriends about how their bucks had finished before satisfying them, and they had to go another round or two before the buck lasted long enough to get their girl off. Daisy hadn't thought she would have to worry about this problem too much with Ryan, seeing how readily he anticipated her needs and wants, but she wasn't sure, not until her handsome buck carried her to their new bed in strong arms. Now she was absolutely sure of the fact, not to mention floating heavenly bliss!
Ryan wasn't satisfied until he first satisfied her and Daisy loved that about her new sexy mate! Being with Ryan was so much more thrilling than she could ever have imagined while living with her mother. When they were younger, Daisy's parents shared a strong, loving bond, but after her youngest brother died, her mother's love seemed to have withered with each passing year, though she didn't become so resentful until they moved to Bunnyburrow and Daisy became close friends with Ryan—a hated jackrabbit.
Rosemary also lost any drive to have another child or seek comfort in her husband's embrace. The fact her dad didn't leave her mother was a testament to how much he loved his family. It didn't help that her father's work took him out of town for weeks on end. When he was home, the first week was spent trying to recover from his lack of sleep. After that, he got caught up on what his kits were doing and puttered around the house fixing anything that needed fixing—which was always something considering how old and outdated their place was.
Her mom, on the other paw, preferred being out in her flower garden when she wasn't doing housework or cooking—or complaining about Daisy's friendship with Ryan or her unrealistic dreams of one day being his wife. But Daisy didn't have to worry about any of that now. Although she intended to keep in touch with her dad and brother, she was now living with Ryan, and she couldn't be happier! Ryan was everything she needed and everything she ever wanted and so, so much more!
While thinking of just how happy Ryan had made her today, Daisy pulled the blanket off her face and rolled over onto her back. Reaching over, she searched for her mate, but found his side of the bed empty. Pushing herself up on her forearms, she looked around the room but didn't see her incredible buck anywhere. Her first thought was that he was in the bathroom, but after a few minutes she didn't hear anything. Did he go upstairs for something? Did Judy or Patty-Mae and Joey show up while she was sleeping?
Not sure what Ryan was up to, Daisy decided she better get up and check out the bathroom because her bladder was full. Throwing the blanket off her, she sat up and took a deep breath, even as she pressed her paw to her lower belly. She was a tad tender, but it was a good tender, if that made any sense. It meant she was well-loved by Ryan, and she couldn't wait to experience it all over again.
Taking another deep breath, Daisy climbed out of bed and wandered over to the door that was closest to the bed. Opening it up, she found the spacious walk-in closet. Ryan's clothes took up a small portion of it, but much more space was left open for her clothes. Daisy knew her meager wardrobe wouldn't come close to filling up the space, but if she knew Ryan like she did, then it wouldn't take more than a year for him to buy her enough clothes to fill up the remaining space.
This thought gave her mixed feelings. Although she was looking forward to a new wardrobe, having to live frugally her whole life, Daisy found the idea of spending a lot of money on clothes she really didn't need to be a bit of a waste. Wouldn't their money be better spent on other things—like food and necessities? But then again, a few new outfits wouldn't be so bad, would it? For starters—a long white dress was absolutely essential, and Daisy wondered how soon she could get a decent wedding dress?
She already knew what she wanted for a dress but doubted she could find anyone to help her make it. Well, Ryan's sister Dahlia might help her since she wanted to be her bridesmaid. She'll have to ask once they returned from the mountains. Patty-Mae and Judy might help her, too. It wouldn't hurt to ask.
Looking the closet over again while trying to imagine it filled with clothes, Daisy caught sight of a large, black zip up bag meant to protect a suit or a dress. The bag wasn't anything fancy, but it did seem to be made of a heavy-duty plastic, or maybe vinyl? She wondered what was in it (was Ryan hiding a tuxedo in there or something?), but then noticed a door at the back of the closet, on the left paw-side.
Walking over to it, she opened it up and peeked inside. It was their spacious master bath. With a grin, Daisy found the light switch next to the door and flipped it on. The light revealed a large shower that was easily big enough to fit both her and Ryan in it together. This thought had her blushing again, but it wasn't something she wanted to avoid.
Glancing over, she saw a large, white tub—one of the old-fashioned ones that sat above the floor on gold-painted eagle's feet, and yes, it was big enough to fit both her and Ryan comfortably in. When she was younger, Daisy thought a tub like this would be cool to have (she had seen them in magazines and several movies). There was even one here in Bunnyburrow (well, two now). While she was helping Ryan do some housework for an elderly neighbor, she spied it in their bathroom. It was the same size as this one, too, and when they left, she mentioned to Ryan how she thought having one would be really cool.
She shouldn't be surprised to find one here considering everything else Ryan had gotten and done for her. Not in her wildest dreams could she ever have imagined Ryan loved her enough to build her a cabin, let alone add so many details that didn't mean anything to anyone else but her. Actions speak louder than words and Ryan was showing her just how much he listens to and cherishes her which had her heart pounding with even more love for the handsome buck.
Using the large, brand-new toilet was heavenly for Daisy. Having spent her whole life moving from one outdated house to another, with its old, worn-out plumbing, toilets, bathtubs, and sink fixtures, she had always coveted newer, nicer things to use when answering nature's call or washing filth from her body. (Her previous house had a rickety old water heater that should have been replaced a decade ago making hot water a luxury). But thanks to Ryan, she now had everything she had ever dreamed of having—and all the hot water she could ever want—and a wonderfully sweet mate to share it all with!
With a happy, little smile curving her muzzle up, Daisy washed her paws in the sink—a 'his and hers' sink with a large mirror above it, the kind that was also a medicine cabinet that had 3 partitions in it. It was so large and convenient! Her old house had a medicine cabinet/mirror combo, too, but was so old and small that they could hardly fit anything in it. Ryan had listened to her many complaints about it during the last four years and so had bought her a medicine cabinet that was actually big enough to be useful.
Walking past the large, free-standing linen closet (she had peeked inside to find the towels, sheets, and blankets), Daisy opened the other door in the bathroom and stepped back into her bedroom. Although she was dying to know what Ryan was up to (and see if any of their guests had arrived), Daisy figured she should take a few minutes for herself to internalize everything that had happened today so as not to get overwhelmed again.
Climbing back on the bed and wrapping the light blanket around her shoulders, Daisy sat and thought while a happy smile teased her lips. Walking down memory lane, she first thought about how Ryan suddenly asked her out on a date—a real date—then she remembered that first kiss he stole and all the subsequent ones…Talk about breathless! And then there was their first date! It was simply amazing! Of course, the fight with her mom and getting kicked out of the house was nerve-wracking.
Daisy had been sure she was now homeless. Although she knew she could stay at Ryan's for a bit, maybe room with Patty-Mae, it wasn't something she was comfortable with. Too many of Ryan's siblings didn't like or approve of her being there. It was mostly Ryan's brothers, but a few of his sisters had made it clear she wasn't welcome there. But now…
Looking around the beautiful, spacious bedroom, Daisy felt like she was living a fairy tale. No, it was better than a fairy tale. Not only did she get her knight in shining armor, but her knight was also Prince Charming—her one true love. And just like a damsel in distress in every fairy tale she'd ever read, her Prince Charming had swooped in to save her, then packed her off to his castle and asked her paw in marriage!
With her head spinning and her heart racing, Daisy couldn't wait to live out the rest of this fairy tale with her handsome knight and prince—her new mate! Although there were sure to be obstacles in their way, as long as she had Ryan, it was sure to be a 'happily ever after.'
Raising her paw, Daisy took another look at her engagement ring. It really was beautiful, and since Ryan had left the lamp on for her, the light hit the diamond in the center and scattered across the room in a dazzling array of rainbow colors. With a soft, happy giggle as a silly grin spread across her lips, Daisy couldn't believe she was actually engaged to Ryan! Talk about a dream come true! Not only was she engaged to him, but Ryan had also taken her as his mate! His Mate! This was far better than a dream come true. She was his and he was hers, and they were living together in this magnificent house he had built her.
Daisy wasn't sure how long she sat on the bed daydreaming, but she was eventually interrupted by Ryan's voice calling her name. Glancing over at the doorway, she saw Ryan walking towards her wearing a thin, soft, black robe that hung open at his chest and came together at his waist were the soft belt held it closed. Smiling at his mate, Ryan carried two mugs of hot, raspberry-lemon tea (it was her favorite). Daisy knew the steaming mugs were tea because of their delicious scent, but the tea couldn't hold her attention for long.
With her gaze shifting back to his fluffy, bare chest, Daisy remembered sliding her long claws through his fur while following the contours of his sculpted muscles. Years of ranch work and carpentry work gave him lean muscles few bucks outside the farming and ranching business could boast of. The hard work also left his paws a little rough, but Ryan's touch was so gentle as he loved her so tenderly, it made her heart want to take flight each time he showed her just how much he loved her.
Daisy also remembered with crystal clarity how it felt to lick and nip his chest and belly as she made her way south. Everything about Ryan just drew her in and made her want to eat him up! Who knew that a jackrabbit could taste so good?
With a smug grin, Ryan watched the way Daisy was eating him up with her eyes and it stroked his male ego to no end. Being a bunny, he wasn't sure how well he could satisfy his mate when she was a predator but seeing her staring at him like she wanted to devour him all over again, it was obvious Daisy found nothing lacking in his performance. Nearing the bed with a steaming mug held in each paw, Ryan said, "Does the fearsome predator want to eat this tasty bunny again?"
Daisy immediately blushed bright red and glanced towards the bedroom's far wall. Licking her lips, she tried getting her mind out of the gutter, but remembering what Ryan let her do to him, what he encouraged her to do, along with what he did to her in return, Daisy found thinking of anything else difficult.
Laughing, Ryan handed her one of the mugs. As she glanced up to meet his heated gaze, he pointed out, "You know I don't mind you eating me, right?" He had made it very clear to her earlier that he fully enjoyed her eating him. Licking his lips at the memory of enjoying her deliciously sweet self in return, Ryan added, "Me and Judy are probably the only bunnies in Bunnyburrow who want to get eaten by a predator."
Daisy's blush deepened even as her gaze dropped down to the growing 'tent' under Ryan's soft, thin robe. Licking her lips again, she heard him laugh before tilting his head and scratching the base of one long ear, saying, "Well, no, I think my sister Camellia wants to be eaten by a predator, too. She's been eyeing Jaxon's tail for years now—whenever she thought no one was looking—and seeing us together might just give her the courage to finally ask him out."
With a nod, Daisy forced her gaze up to meet Ryan's warm, brown eyes. "Jaxon is the bobcat she went to school with, right? They did a lot of study groups together, didn't they?"
Ryan nodded in reply. "The way Jaxon always watched Camellia's tail whenever they were together tells me that he's interested in getting a taste of her, too, so I told Camellia earlier today that she should go ahead and ask him out." With a shrug, he added, "We'll see if she takes my advice or not." Sipping his tea, Ryan watched Daisy think over his words. He really hoped Camellia asked Jaxon out since they had been pining away for each other for about as long as he and Daisy had, maybe longer.
Sipping her own tea in thought—it was super delicious, made just the way she liked it—Daisy asked, "You really think Camellia and Jaxon will get together?"
With a nod, Ryan answered, "If Camellia finds the courage to ask him out, then yes, I know they will. I'm pretty sure Jaxon is waiting for her to ask him out." With a shrug, he added, "Otherwise, he might get accused of threatening her into dating him." Ryan rolled his eyes at this ridiculous thought.
As bunnies went, Camellia was considered fearless in her fascination and attraction towards predators. And for her to be 'intimidated' by Jaxon was just a joke—and not a funny one. Motioning towards Daisy with his mug, Ryan explained, "With Jaxon being a large, strong predator, if he were to ask Camellia out himself, you know there'd be a whole bunch of specist jerks around this town claiming she only agreed to date him because he intimidated her with his sharp teeth and claws."
Daisy nodded while sipping more of her tea (Ryan always made the best tea!). "I really hope she asks Jaxon out. It'll be nice if we're not the only pred/prey couple in town."
Grinning while looking at his predatory mate, Ryan knew that whether any other pred/prey couple showed up or not, it didn't matter. Daisy was his and he wasn't going to let anyone take her away from him. Tipping his head back, he drained his mug, then set it on the nightstand beside him. Turning back to Daisy, he reached forward to cup her surprised face before pulling her into a hot kiss. She moaned into the kiss as her tongue wrestled with his own, and when he pulled back, he whispered, "Are you ready to eat me again?"
Daisy sucked in a deep breath. Just hearing him ask her to eat him again had not only the spot between her legs getting wetter, but had her drooling. Daisy couldn't help herself—Ryan tasted way better than she could ever have imagined!
Stealing another quick kiss from her, Ryan then stood up and took her mug. Placing it on the nightstand beside his own, he then untied his robe and let his slide off his shoulders, saying, "Well?"
Daisy's eyes widened. Ryan was already at full-mast, and it once more reminded her how quickly a jackrabbit could reload. Licking the drool off her lips, she swallowed her saliva and glanced up at Ryan. His eyes were burning with desire and he suddenly kissed her again.
Leaning forward, Ryan planted one paw on the bed beside Daisy, then captured one of her soft mounds with the other. Being with Daisy was beyond heaven, especially when she slid those sharp claws of hers down his chest, across his stomach, and reached her prize. As she wrapped his hard cock in her soft, divine fingers, Ryan groaned in pleasure and anticipation. He still couldn't believe how much Daisy liked his 'flavor.'
Slipping his fingers through her thicker, silkier belly fur, Ryan then slid his finger between her drenched folds several times before sliding his finger inside her hot core. A shiver of pleasure chased itself down her spine, even as Daisy growled into his mouth. Teasing each other until Daisy felt Ryan's precum, she suddenly broke off their latest kiss to nip and bite her way under his chin, along his throat, and down his chest and stomach.
Pulling his finger out of her, Ryan straightened up to give her better access, even as he began caressing and messaging her short, round ears. As Daisy wrapped her longer muzzle around him, Ryan tilted his head back as a wide, buck-toothed smile spread across his lips. Being eaten by a predator never felt so good!
WingedKatt again. So now there is another pred-prey couple in Bunnyburrow. Nick and Judy's love has started a chain reaction that keeps spreading. Next chapter, we'll see what is holding Patty-Mae and Joey up. We'll also see what happens when the rest of the kerfluffle find out that the 'trouble twins' are singing with the fox.
Ch. 39 will post in 2 weeks. Have a great weekend. If you have any thoughts or questions, let me know.
