Shaky's POV

After Lilly and Humphrey left I took a seat back on the couch. I took a deep breath to calm myself as I processed the news that they had given me. Rick's gone too? He's just… gone? I didn't even get that much information. What happened? Someone killed him? And they don't even know who did it? From what I've seen Rick is a pretty good fighter, so either this person was strong as hell or took him by surprise… fucking cowards. I felt myself grow angry as I thought of the possibilities. What pussy could have snuck up behind my brother and… oh God… Rick is gone now too.

I felt tears begin to well up. I tried to hold them back but to no avail. I wanted to hurt whoever did this to us… poor Kate. I couldn't imagine the emotions that she must be going through right about now. Angel was taken from me yeah but at least that was a car accident, no one actually took her from me… if they did I would be all over the streets trying to find them. Kate must be in terrible shape right now. She loves that wolf so much… I had to go over there. If anyone could understand what she was going through it was me. I was still in awful shape but I still wanted to help her. Maybe we could help each other.

I pulled my phone out of my pocket and saw that it was six o'clock. I sighed and then stood up. I couldn't go like this. I hadn't showered or anything since I got the news. Dad had tried getting me out of my room but never pushed it. I guess because he lost his soul mate as well and understood everything. He never actually tried to talk to me though and honestly I don't think that I would want him to. Yeah he was my dad and we were close, but I felt closer to my other family, and they needed me right now. I didn't want Kate to be by herself if she didn't want it. Kate was much more social than me. After Rick brought her out of her shell we all saw her true personality, and if she went back to that on an even worse level… I had to see if she was okay.

I made it to the bathroom, taking my clothes off before hopping in the shower. The hot water actually felt so good on my fur. I scrubbed myself for a while before washing my hair which felt even better. By the time I got out of the shower and dried off I felt about twenty pounds lighter. It felt so good to be clean. I brushed my teeth after, and then went into my room to throw on something. Dark blue jeans, brown dress boots, belt, white T-shirt, and finally my usual jean jacket. I just felt naked without it… as did Angel.

I sprayed some cologne on myself and then left. Poor Kate, hopefully I could do something for her, even if it wasn't making her happy again, she just needed to know that she had someone. Someone who knew exactly what she was going through. I just prayed that she was in good enough condition to talk to me. After getting in my car for the first time in weeks I turned it on and headed out.

Lilly's POV

With Humphrey inside of me I felt him reach around, laying his bare chest on my back and making me exhale. I felt him throb in me as he reached from my shoulders, down to my breasts. He squeezed them gently making me moan slightly into my mouth with closed eyes. Still though I stayed on my hands and knees, trying to maintain my balance. My tail tried to move but was caught under Humphrey's weight. He squeezed my breasts again, making me moan once more. He then leaned over and nibbled my ear, making me giggle. I tried to reach behind me to touch his head, but almost lost my balance. Quickly I caught myself and put my hand back down on the bed, making the two of us laugh.

"I'm close," Humphrey whispered.

"Hm so am I… do it… do it" I moaned. Humphrey gave my cheek a long smooch and a lick before getting off of me, still though he held onto my breasts, but let go to move his hands down my stomach until he held onto my ass. He stayed on his knees as he continued his heavenly rhythm, making me moan each time he poked at my core with his fleshy tip. I felt his throbs as I braced myself to be filled with his thick hot seed. I was so close to cumming, even through my pussy had been drooling all over the sheets as he fucked me.

"Lilly" Humphrey moaned as he pulled my ass into him. I pushed, trying to get him to go as deep as he could, penetrating my core and making me gasp. He thrusted five more times into me, nice and deep before he grunted, and my empty womb which had felt incomplete and lonely before was filled to the brim, one hot, gooey shot at a time. Humphrey moaned with ech shot as well, leaning on me half way through to lay on me again. He gripped my breasts again and nuzzled my face as he continued to thrust into me with each shot. The two of us moaned in pure ecstasy as he continued to cum inside me. It must have been at the very least ten shots until he finally stopped shooting, and added to the pool under us which was dripping out of me. Our mixture of cum was so thick that it actually made a string all the way up from the pull on the bed to my vagina. I exhaled with a smile as Humphrey started to laugh lightly before licking my cheek. I giggled and tried to turn my head to kiss him, but could only give him side lip from my muzzle. He thrusted into me one more time before pulling out as if to give him leverage, afterwards rolling on the other side of the bed out of breath.

I rested my head on my hands with closed eyes and a smile as I felt his hot semen ooze out of me and into the puddle. It had been so long since we had sex,even longer in such a position. I stretched, looking up to see Humphrey practically asleep. I crawled over to him, cuddling him and nuzzling into his neck, giving it pecks here and there. I left my leg over his to get comfy, resulting in my vagina resting on his thigh. Our cum leaking onto it and probably stiffening his fur. It was an even trade. I never complained every time he came and his semen oozed down my inner thighs, messing up my fur. But that was just part of sex. Messy fur, and I liked it. I know that was a turn on for some, it was definitely with Rick… Rick…

"Hey Humphrey?" I said, opening my eyes. I began to twirl his hair, brushing the fur on his neck with my other fingers.

"Yeah?" Humphrey replied.

"Are we wrong for this? It feels like Rick just passed and… here we are doing this" I explained. Humphrey sighed and then rolled over to turn and face me as he laid on his stomach. Our noses nearly touching as he rested his head on his now folded arms.

"Lilly… it's okay that we had sex… Do you really think that the two of them would want us to stop? They're probably happy that we're doing it… plus it isn't so soon… It's been three days" Humphrey explained.

"I don't know… I mean your right but… I just feel like we should be more upset, you know?" I said, not choosing my words very wisely.

"What you mean you're not upset about Rick?" Humphrey asked.

"No I am… I'm crushed… I loved Rick… I mean it feels like we're moving on too fast… I mean we've shed tears for him and Angel… maybe we're all out" I said. Humphrey's eyes shot down for a second, looking where my nose was as he thought.

You know… I've kinda felt that too…" Humphrey looked back up to me, making eye contact again. "I'm just so tired of being unhappy… and it's so hard because I was the happiest I had ever been when we were all together… as three amazing couples, six amazing friends… family… and now you and I are the last ones… I never thought things would ever get this bad" Humphry explained. I reached for his chin, messing with the little bit of fur with my pointer finger and thumb.

"I know… I just… I really miss them… I still can't believe that they're really gone… sometimes it just doesn't feel real" I replied. Humphrey sighed.

"Yeah… I've been having dreams lately… dreams where we're all together… like nothing happened… in the dreams I remember everything that happened, but for some reason I write it off as they survived and we just thought they were dead… we often talk about it in the dreams and we laugh… and I'm so happy that they're there, and we're all together. It;s just like it was… you have your best friend while she pokes fun at Shaky… your sister won't get off of Rick, they're just constantly clinging on to each other" Humphrey explained, making the two of us laugh at the last part, but also making us feel sad.

"I've been having similar dreams… except it's not with everyone it's just… either me and Angel talking, or me and Rick… we talk about how glad we are that they made it out alive, I ask how everything's going in their relationship… it always just seems so real… like I can touch them, hear them, I get their scent… but when I wake up it's all over… reality comes back" I said sadly. Humphrey sighed again.

"Do you think… Maybe that whole talk about your dead loved ones coming into your dreams isn't bullshit after all?" Humphrey asked. I shrugged.

"I'd like to think so… but then why are we talking about how they survived? It just pains me that I'm never gonna actually get to talk to them again… spend time with them…" I said. I continued playing with Humphrey's chin as he cupped my cheek, brushing the fur on it.

"Aren't you… religious?" he asked.

"Not really… I mean we used to go to church and all that but… Kate is more religious than me" I answered.

"So where do you think they are right now?" Humphrey asked. I shrugged.

"I really hope that they're together… that they can see each other and spend time together… I hope that they're not just in eternal darkness" I said, fearing that they were.

"Do you know what Rick's logic was?" Humphrey asked. Again I shrugged.

"When his grandmother passed… he would often say that he needed to believe that she was somewhere… not in the infinite darkness that you just mentioned… he just refused to believe for her sake that she wasn't in a better place. And that thought, and that logic kept him believing that there was something after death… and that's what I'm thinking about him right now. Angel too. They can't be in nothingness, because if they are… then they're not where they deserve to be" Humphrey explained. I thought about what he just told me, rolling the idea around. I hoped he was right.

"Maybe" I replied. Humphrey looked away from me and then back to my eyes.

"Hey… are you in heat?" he asked.

"I don't think so, I've been really horney but I think that's just because we habit had sex in awhile" I answered.

"Well, have you been taking a pill? When I was with Kate I could smell her heat. I couldn't smell yours though" Humphrey said.

"Well if I was in heat then you would smell it would you not?" I asked. Humphrey signed yet again and rolled over to the edge of the bed, reaching into his bedside drawer. I heard a pill bottle open and close as pills rolled around inside. I took the moment to check the semen on my leg. It had cooled down, but was still cozy as it rested. Humphrey rolled back over and handed me a small white pill .

"Here, from your last heat" he said. I took it and examined it.

"That's right… we didn't take them all did we?" I asked.

"Uneven dosage," Humphrey replied. I popped it in my mouth and swallowed, afterwards resting my head but into the pillow. Humphrey laid on his stomach again and put his nose to mine as we were before.

"I wonder how Kate's gonna be during her heat without Rick… back in middle school when she first started getting heat, she would get so horny and wet… I remember one time mom kept her home because she went into her room crying. She was so innocent back then" I said, thinking about the past. At the time I was confused because nothing seemed wrong with her, and I didn't know what heat was.

"She and Rick might have had sex a lot, but from what I've heard it wasn't anything bad. Mostly just loving… I would say that's pretty innocent. Especially for a girl that horny" Humphrey said.

"I guess… but what is she gonna do now?" I asked. Humphrey shrugged.

"Knowing her… she'll just deal with it. I don't see her going out with anyone for it" he answered. For some reason his answer made me think of Stephanie. I wasn't sure why.

"So Shaky is coming over tomorrow… have you heard from Stephanie?" I asked. Humphrey shook his head.

"Not since that day" he answered. That day… that fucking day. When mom was trying to get all of the blood off of Humphrey's hands, she was trying to calm him while at the same time asking what happened. She wanted to know if Rick was okay. She scrubbed his hands as he kept them extended over the sink.

"So where is he? What happened to him?" mom asked.

"Th- they took him away… I didn't see it though. The c-cops were q-questioning me" Humphrey sobbed. Mom scoffed.

"And they let you go like this? Fucking assholes" she growled. I sat on the couch, sobbing silently, grieving over my brother in law when our doorbell rang. Dad, who had been trying to comfort me, looked over at the door as I did.

"That must be Stephanie," I said. Dad patted my shoulder as he got up.

"I'll get it" he told me. I didn't want him to be the one to tell her though. If he did it I feel like it would have been really quick with no context.

"No I'll do it" I said as I got up.

"Lilly just take a seat, you shouldn't be-"

"It's fine dad… I got it" I said, wiping a tear from my eye. I didn't let him respond. Instead I walked down the hall, straight to the front door. I opened it and sure enough there she was. In jean shorts and a tank top. It was so nice out that day. She went to say hi to me but her smile instantly faded once she saw the state I was in.

"Lilly? Are you okay?" she asked.

"Why don't you come inside for a moment, Stephanie" I said. I took a step back, holding the door open for her. She walked inside, allowing me to shut it. Around the corner she saw my mom still washing the blood off of Humphrey's hands as he kept sobbing.

"What's going on?" she asked, looking over to me.

"Not too long ago… about an hour or so… Rick and Humphrey were at the gas station and… someone killed Rick" I explained. Stephanie's face instantly looked shocked.

"What?" she asked, looking upset as she began to hyperventilate already.

"I don't know all the details but someone killed him… he's gone Stephanie…" I cried. She said nothing, covering her muzzle as she began to cry. "Stephanie, why don't we-" I said as I began to reach for her arm but she smacked it away, whimpering as she did so. "Stephanie?" I said. She didn't reply, she just immediately ran past me and out of the house, hopping in her car and leaving. I stood in the doorway speechless as I watched her car pull off.

"Maybe we should head over there tomorrow" Humphrey said, snapping me out of my own memories.

"Do you even know her address?" I asked.

"Hm, no. I think only Rick did, but we have her phone number… maybe we should give her a call?" Humphrey suggested. I sighed.

"I guess," I said. Humphrey reached over to his left, grabbing his phone and then putting it in front of him as he kept his head up. I turned over by now as well, feeling my hair stick to the pillow as I turned on my stomach to match Humphrey. Only he didn't feel the freezing cold semen pool on his thigh as he laid there. I noticed it instantly but didn't bother moving it. The damage was already done. Humphrey dialed Stephanie's phone number and put it on speaker. It rang three times before she picked up.

"Hello?" she said.

"Hey Stephanie. It's me and Lilly. You okay?" Humphrey asked. There was a pause.

"No… I'm not okay" she said.

"What are you doing right now?" I asked.

"Laying down… I haven't really been doing much lately" Stephanie answered. I turned to Humphrey, making him look over at me as well before we both turned back to the phone.

"Look… Shaky is coming over tomorrow and we think maybe you should come down too. It's not good for you to be by yourself during these times" Humphrey explained. Another pause.

"Shaky doesn't even like me though… not anymore" Stephanie said.

"He does still like you, he just needs to heal his wounds is all… you were expecting this before, you just have to live up to it" Humphrey explained. Stephanie sighed.

"I know… I just don't have the energy… I've been so upset lately" Stephanie said.

"Stephanie I… we know you loved Rick… we know that, we know that it hurts… but maybe you should just come down. Worst case is you just go home" I said, trying to get her to come over.

"That's not the worst case and you know it Lilly, And I don't see why my love for him has to be brought up in this" Stephanie replied angrily.

"Because we know how much you cared for him, even if you guys weren't together you were still really close… there's no shame in what you guys had" Humphrey explained. Another pause followed by sobbing.

"Stephanie?" I said.

"I… I was already heart broken by him once… and then again once I found out that he and Kate were together… and a third time now that he's gone… he was the perfect guy for me… everything I ever wanted in a guy… and not only was he taken from me once but now this… I was happy for him when he got with Kate finally, proved us all wrong… but it still hurt… and now it hurts even more" Stephanie explained.

"You don't have to be alone in this Stephanie… you still have people that care for you… and we want to help each other… please just come down tomorrow please" Humphrey begged. We heard Stephanie cry for a few seconds before she spoke again.

"Why do you guys care about me? I left you" she said.

"Because you mean a lot to us Stephanie… you always did" I answered.

"And you always will, '' Humphrey added. Another pause before she spoke again, the phone just barely picking up her choked whisper.

"Okay" she said. Humphrey breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay… thank you… we'll talk to you tomorrow okay?" he said.

"Alright… thank you guys" Stephanie said.

"Of course Stephanie… we'll always be here for you" I said. A few more seconds of silence went by before she before the phone call ended, giving us those three boops. Humphrey rested his muzzle into his arms and sighed again. Relieved that he managed to convince her.

"That went well" I said.

"Yeah… thank God it did" Humphrey replied, turning over to finally lay on his back again. I crawled over to Humphrey, the pool of sperm nearly dragging my leg back as it tried to hold me there. I lifted it out though, some sperm still connecting it and the bed and then crawled on top of Humphreys chest and relaxed. "Why is your leg so cold and sticky?" he asked. I giggled.

"I accidentally rolled in the pool," I answered.

"Ew, gross," he said. I giggled again, pecking his neck.

"I find it sweet. We haven't climaxed that hard in awhile" I said, looking down at him after lifting my head up. He smiled and then chuckled, reaching up for my face.

"Yeah… it's been awhile… good to have ya back" he said.

"I really needed it," I replied.

"Me too," Humphrey said hungrily. I leaned down to kiss him, my breasts squishing onto his chest. He reached behind my ears to kiss me, making the kiss intensify. We were probably gonna go for round two. At least we would have if my phone didn't ring. Me and Humphrey broke the kiss and I sighed. "Just get it… I'm not going anywhere" Humphrey smiled. I giggled and gave his lips one more peck before reaching to my right and grabbing the phone. It was mom calling me. I answered, putting the phone on speaker.

"Hello?" I said.

"Lilly, where are you?" mom asked. She sounded upset, almost broken, making my heart race instantly.

"At Humphrey's. I had to drop him off, remember. Why?" I asked. I heard some commotion in the background, making Humphrey raise his head to look at the phone as if he could see something I couldn't. "Mom, what's going on?" I asked.

"It's your sister," mom answered.
