DARK DREAMS

Chapter 5: New Woes

Two months later...

Something was happening to him. It was bad enough to be suffering from a nasty curse as it was but this was equally distressing. Even though he recovered after each bout of moon driven change, his body was burning with a need not stopped by the moons departure.

He had never been one for seeking sexual gratification so had been nearly celibate by choice. His few sexual encounters were brief and not very satisfying. Though he tried not to think about the curse and what the creature was driven to do, he couldn't forget one little detail Felina had told him. The creature mated with the sex he was attracted to when not under the curse. This was unsettling. He never really looked at males that way nor females for that matter but ever since the curse had activated he began watching males with varying degrees of arousal. It disturbed him and cost him many sleepless nights. His body seemed to be demanding he take some action to sate the need that was growing into a painful distraction.

Feral was extremely embarrassed to mention this to anybody but he had learned his lesson about keeping secrets concerning his health. The curse made sure of that, so with trepidation he sought out the physician that was monitoring his unusual condition. Dr. Mewser listened to Feral's tense description of his new symptoms with concern.

"I'd like to run a few tests, Commander. I want to check your hormone levels and see if they have been disturbed by this curse. When we're finished, I want you to go to the lab. I'll let you know the results as soon as possible. Meanwhile, much as I hate to say this, you must seek a sex partner. Since you seem to be driven, you might want to consider finding someone who doesn't mind it rough or prefers it." Dr. Mewser advised seriously.

Feral gaped at him, his face burned with embarrassment. "You think I'll be brutal with someone? Should I do this at all if I could be that dangerous? I don't want to injure anyone."

"If you wait any longer, Commander, you could indeed be too brutal. Right now I think you'll be rough but no more than that. I'll know more when I get your results back. You can wait till then but no longer. What I suspect is your hormones are out of balance, sort of pushing you into an almost continual rutting cycle which can be exhausting. There are drugs I can use to balance you once more and we will see if that is needed after I see your results. But having sex will also help too." He explained.

"Gods! This is soo humiliating!" Feral groaned.

"I'm sorry, Commander. I wish there was some other way." Dr. Mewser shrugged his shoulders sympathetically. "I'll get those results as fast as I can. Go to the lab now and get your blood drawn. I'll see you soon."

After getting his blood drawn, he moodily returned to his office. He tried to refocus his attention on the reports stacked on his desk and for a few hours he was successful. By midafternoon, he had cleared most of the reports and sent them off. The rest of the day was spent in meetings. Just before end of shift, Dr. Mewser called him. The doctor's suspicions were confirmed and he asked Feral to stop by to receive medication to help correct his condition. Sighing he hung up and got up to leave. 'My life just couldn't be worse right now!' He thought sourly as he headed to the med section.

Two nights later at a club for males...

He'd found out about this club from the internet and felt it might be what he required. Entering he was shocked at what he was seeing taking place in the center of the dance floor. A husky kat, wearing leather pants and no shirt was on an X-frame suspended in the air at a nearly ninety-degree angle. His paws and feet were fastened in place with padded leather restraints. A big hulking kat in leather and a mask was holding a whip and was using the butt end to titillate the helpless kat who moaned in pleasure. The scent of testosterone and lust perfumed the air.

His body was hard and on fire at the sight before him. The intense need burning in his body frightened him. Trying to distract himself he looked around at the audience of males and was stunned to see a familiar figure. Standing not far from the frame and grinning with amusement was the SWAT Kat known as T-Bone. A roar filled the air and the crack of the whip jerked his head back to the scene in the middle of the floor. The leather clad kat had flicked the whip at the chest of the hanging kat opening a lightly bleeding stripe. The hanging kat had a raging hard on.

T-Bone was really digging the scene. He was itching to take the leather clad Kats place and bestowing a little pain himself. It turned him on. Smiling and drinking his beer he looked away and studied the crowd for a likely partner. As he raised his bottle to his mouth once more his gaze fell on a familiar form and he choked. His eyes narrowing in anger he pushed his way through the wildly cheering crowd of toms toward the Commander.

"What are you doing here?" T-Bone snarled close to Feral's ear. The big tom startled and whipped his head around. His eyes were wild and desperate. Gold eyes glowed with hot need and fear.

T-Bone jerked back in shock, he scented fear and lust in Feral but it was the big kat's wild and dangerous look shining from his eyes and tension in the large body that worried the tabby more. He remembered the curse and was now concerned that it was affecting Feral in some way. The full moon was not even close. Concerned for the safety of the club goers, he grabbed one of the Commander's arms and tugged him forcefully away from the frenzied scene.

Feral resisted but not enough to prevent T-Bone from dragging him to a more quiet area of the club. Pushing the big kat into a room, he shut the door and looked at Feral warily.

"What's wrong with you?" he asked bluntly. Now that he could see Feral a little better, he noted the beads of sweat and the fine tremors.

Feral opened and closed his paws in agitation, "Need!...Clawing my gut...I'm on fire!" he shook his head violently. "Can't think...don't want to hurt anyone...but need to mate soo badly..." He panted desperately. "Afraid I will hurt someone!"

T-Bone's eyes widened in shock. Feral was nearly out of his mind and barely holding on. His scent was heavy with rutting pheromones but at the same time fear warred with his desperate need. No matter how much he might hate the Commander, he couldn't let him suffer like this. Besides which, he really could hurt someone in this condition. Suddenly, he had an idea. He had planned to dominate someone tonight why not Feral.

"I can give you what you need and no one will get hurt. I'm a very good dominant." T-Bone said carefully.

"D..D...Dominant? W...What's that?" Feral stuttered in confusion.

T-Bone stared at Feral in surprise. 'Was he that ignorant or...?' He wondered. 'Oh! No way could he be that innocent... could he?' "Haven't you had sex with males before?" He asked suspiciously.

"No!" Feral gasped, his face reddened, "Not sexually active at all!" he admitted painfully.

"Shit!" T-Bone could only gape at the Commander. 'Okay this changes everything. A virgin needs to be handled with care.' He sighed, altering his initial plans. 'Well it's a good thing I'm the one taking him.' He thought grimly, 'There's no telling the damage he could have suffered under a less understanding paw.'

"It's alright, I'm experienced and can give you the relief you obviously need. Don't worry. It will be our secret. They have private rooms for what I want to do so wait here while I get us one. Trust me!" T-Bone said gently to the frantic kat.

"Trust a Swat Kat?!...Gods, I don't believe this!" Feral groaned in despair pressing his back against the wall closing his eyes, the need still screaming at him. "I...I don't really have a choice!" He panted, his heart hammering in his ears.

"Don't worry! You are better off with me who knows you than someone who could hurt you! Stay here while I get us a room." T-Bone repeated reassuringly and quickly left the trembling Commander alone. He was back five minutes later and tugged Feral with him to another room downstairs.

The room was simply decorated in reds and blacks. The four poster bed in the center of the room had red silk sheets on it and there were restraint cuffs at all four corners. The carpet was black and the walls were red. Hanging from the walls were a variety of implements Feral couldn't begin to know what they were used for.

The SWAT Kat locked the door and came to his side. "Don't worry!" Divining the reason for the Commander's sudden nervousness. "I'm only going to use a few of these items. No rough stuff your first time." T-Bone quietly assured him.

"Ah...good. I'm not much into pain as pleasure." Feral swallowed nervously.

"And there won't be any. I promise. Only pleasure." The tabby began to remove his clothes as he studied the various tools to decide what would be best. "Take you clothes off and lay down on the bed." He ordered.

Shivering, Feral was too heated to back out now so undressed as quickly as he could. He noted that clothing hooks had been provided near the door. Towels and bottled water were also provided on a table near the bed along with a tube of something. He moved to the bed and lay down as instructed. He licked his lips and watched T-Bone move around the room. Soon the tabby came over with a few items in his paws which he lay on the bed near Feral's feet.

"Okay! Don't be upset. I'm going to put these restraints on you. It will keep you from hurting me and yourself." T-Bone said quietly as he began to place the Commander's feet into each cuff and cinched them. "Are they tight enough? Do they pinch anywhere? I don't want you uncomfortable." He asked waiting for Feral's answer.

Feral moved his feet and though restrained there was no pain and he told the tabby so. T-Bone then moved to the big tom's head and began cinching each paw. Feral found himself reacting to the tabby's scent and to T-Bone's really buff body. He couldn't tear his eyes away as T-Bone went around the bed to cinch the last cuff.

"There...now how does that feel? Are you comfortable?" T-Bone looked at him critically. Feral pulled and twisted.

"I..I...I'm fine, I guess!" He quivered when he answered. The tension was unbearable and he wished T-Bone would just get to it before he combusted.

The Commander was so tense and heated, T-Bone thought it might be wise to force him to orgasm quickly to take the pressure off. 'Maybe more than once.' He thought with an experienced eye.

Without resorting to anything but his paws, T-Bone began a soothing caress up and down the big kats legs and thighs moving up slowly toward his groin. Feral shivered and moaned at the intimate touch. So very unused to being touched at all it was all he could do not to scream.

Pleased with the response he was getting, the tabby used his claws lightly on Feral's inner thighs then gently manipulated the tom's sack, rolling them between his fingers. That was it for the Commander. With a heart felt scream, he released shooting white cream up his chest. Panting, he lay there stunned. His cock still hard. Nodding to himself, T-Bone had guessed right. A few more times were going to be necessary to release all the tension in the big kats body before trying anything more erotic. After all, this kat had years of catching up to do.

Gentle touches to erogenous zones, pinching nipples and squeezing the big cock were all that was necessary to bring the big tom off three more times. T-Bone studied the limp kat on the bed. Feral was more relaxed and much of the strain was finally eased. He waited for the Commander to catch his breath and regain some of his composure. "Feel better now?"

"Much better, thanks. You're good." Feral sighed at how much of the tension had drained from his body. Although he still felt hard and aroused, he didn't feel so out of control and wild.

"That's real good. I can tell, though, you are still heated and that will be taken care of when we get past the foreplay we've been doing for the past hour. Ready for something more intense and fulfilling?" T-Bone asked giving him an appraising look.

"I guess so. What does that entail?" He asked a bit nervously.

"Ohh, if you liked what I've already done to you, you will obsolutely hit the ceiling with what I plan next." T-Bone smirked. "I want to blindfold you now. It heightens the pleasure when you can't see what's being done."

Feral gulped nervously as T-Bone placed a blindfold over his eyes. A shiver skittered down his spine in anticipation. Reaching for a vibrator, the tabby turned it on and began at Feral's feet and moved slowly up one leg toward the groin, lingering only a moment before traveling in a snake like pattern up Feral's broad chest moving from one nipple to another until each rose in a taut peek. The big cat moaned and writhed under the unusual sensation. Passing it down each arm slowly, T-Bone smiled at the reactions he was getting as he moved the vibrator back down the tom's body once more. This time he ran the device up and down Feral's hard and weeping cock causing the tom to buck his hips and gasp.

'Oh God! He was going out of his mind with the things T-Bone was doing to him.' He moaned and twisted wishing he could touch his tormentor. He didn't know pleasure this intense could be so wonderful. The pressure was building within him but it was a heavenly feeling instead of the burning unfulfilled pain he had been suffering when he had entered the club.

T-Bone was getting hard listening to Feral's increasingly loud shouts of passion. He decided he should get himself prepared since Feral's cock was not small. Picking up the dildo he'd chosen earlier, he prepped his orifice to accept it. He groaned when it slid in and it got his cock even harder. Finished, he leaned over Feral's cock and began a slow teasing lick of the quivering organ. Feral cried out and bucked.

When he felt Feral's sac draw up tight, he ceased his licking, removed the dildo from his rear and climbed atop the tom on the bed. Feral moaned at the feel of a hot body pressing down on his. T-Bone grinned in anticipation. He raised his body and pressed slowly down onto Feral's large cock. Both kats groaned in pleasure as T-Bone gradually took the entire organ into himself. It was only a little uncomfortable and T-Bone held still for a bit to get accustomed to the size stretching him to his limit.

Panting, he began rocking slowly then gradually picking up speed. Growling lustfully, Feral raised his hips to meet T-Bone's downward thrust. He'd never felt anything so incredible. The erotic fire rose higher and higher. He felt he was going to fly away. A building tension rose from his toes to his head as the intensity increased until he screamed and exploded in that warm, tight hole. T-Bone screamed and clenched as he came feeling the hot release of Feral beneath him.

Collapsing onto Feral's chest, T-Bone continued to spasm for a moment or two longer before finally lying still. The big tom's cock slipped free causing the tabby to moan at its loss. That had been one heck of a ride and he was well pleased. He had succeeded in satisfying the Commander.

They lay there until their hearts quieted and their breathing slowed. T-Bone slipped off Feral and went around releasing the big kat's feet and paws from the restraining cuffs. Feral continued to lie there in amazement. His wrists were a little sore but he hardly noticed since he was totally captivated by the feelings of an endorphin high from great sex. 'So this is what they mean by 'afterglow.' He thought giddily.

"Hey, how you feeling big guy?" T-Bone asked leaning over Feral who still hadn't moved. He had already gotten dressed when he noticed the Commander was still lying on the bed.

Feral blinked and stared up at T-Bone blearily for a moment, then sighed and stretched. "Wonderful! Thank you!" Feral said gratefully. T-Bone straightened as the Commander sat up. He smiled in amusement at the big tom's rather giddy behavior. He watched as Feral got up and went to get dressed. He grabbed a bottle of water and drank it down, turned and offered the other bottle to Feral.

Feral smiled and took the bottle and drank thirstily. Sighing he stared at the SWAT Kat in bemusement. It was just beginning to dawn on him as his mind cleared, that he had just allowed an antagonist to be very intimate with him.

Still amused, T-Bone could guess what was on the Commander's mind. "Don't worry, Commander. Like I told you, I have no intention of anyone finding out what we did here. That's between you and me. Not even my partner is going to find out about it." T-Bone assured him.

"I have to take you word for that, SWAT Kat!" He said tightly. Then he sighed, letting the tension flow away. "But somehow, I know this time I do trust you." T-Bone had been true to his word about relieving his need without causing him pain or letting him cause others pain. He truly did owe the SWAT Kat a debt.

"I really am grateful to you T-Bone. I just wish it solved my problem. Unfortunately, it is only a temporary fix. Until a cure is found for the curse my hormones are going to fly out of control. Dr. Mewser has told me the drugs he's given me will help but only if I have regular sex in conjunction with them." He shrugged his shoulders helplessly.

T-Bone studied the Commander in surprise. Despite what they'd just done, Feral was now depressed. It was unusual for Feral to confide in anyone but the tabby could understand this situation was anything but normal and by what he'd said he had every reason to feel despair. "Has there been any word from Dr. Sinean on her progress finding the cure?"

"No. She has many volunteers helping her but no matter how many there are there is just too much information to go through. She's doing her best." Feral said heavily.

Sighing and scratching his head, T-Bone thought about what could aid the Commander. "Well, you should just come here and take a partner. Do some mild stuff, make sure your partner for the night understands what you are willing to do before you start. Since you are a beginning, I'd just go with fellatio and maybe topping." He suggested.

Grimacing, Feral rubbed his neck and blushed in embarrassment. "I wish I knew what you are talking about. I'm sorry but since you are the first male I've ever been with the terms you use have no meaning for me."

"Oh yeah, that's right. Sorry!" T-Bone blushed at his stupidity. Of course Feral wouldn't know anything about male to male sex. Feeling strange about doing this but not seeing any other solution right now he made a suggestion he hoped he wouldn't regret. "Well, you know, uh... I could help you out. I guess. We could meet here when you need me and I'll teach you about sex with a male."

Feral just gaped at T-Bone. "Why would you do that?" He blurted in surprise.

"Everyone has to learn. Because you are older, guys here will take one look at you and think you are experienced and when they discover you're not it will put you in an embarrassing or even dangerous position. No matter what I think of you as an Enforcer, here in this place you are just a green kitten who needs help and deserves to learn with someone you at least know well enough to trust won't hurt you. Besides, that curse could make you very dangerous. I'd just prefer it was me because I'm familiar with what's going on with you and can defend myself." T-Bone stated simply.

Feral felt his face heat and he looked away. He was mortified that a SWAT Kat felt concern for him and was willing to set aside his animosity to give him life lessons he should have learned when he was a teen. This curse had changed his life so much he no longer recognized it. He swallowed his pride and looked at T-Bone.

"I...thank you for caring what happens to me. I'm not sure how to handle this. The curse has wrecked so much havoc with my life that I don't know how much more I can take. But I'll take you up on your offer, if only to prevent me from becoming a menace."

T-Bone eyed him. He could see how much saying that had hurt his self esteem. Shaking his head, he reached out and patted Feral firmly on the shoulder. "Don't let it get you down, Commander. Dr. Sinean will find the cure. You just have to have faith." He reached into his pocket and handed Feral a small device. "When you need me just press that. I'll know its you and why."

Feral took the device and sighed. The two of them exited the room and headed back upstairs. The dance floor had been cleared of the frame and males of all ages were gyrating to the music. Tired, Feral separated from T-Bone and left for home.
