The Next Morning – Cody's POV

Lilly and I ended up going to be around 9PM or somewhere around there last night. We were absolutely exhausted from the day and pretty much fell asleep as soon as our heads hit the pillows. Before we did however, we got a call from David, one of the people Garth lives with, and Garth had said he was going to come into the vet everyday we were there so he and Lilly could catch up. She was ecstatic to hear that, anxious to know how his life had been and how he came to Kalispell.

I started to wake up from feeling Lilly moving around next to me and opened my eyes to see the sun was just starting to get up, barely shining through the window in the bedroom. I looked at Lilly to see her still sound asleep, her back against my chest and she was quietly purring a little. I smiled to myself and carefully stretched out so I didn't wake her, quietly yawning as I did.

I looked at the alarm clock by the bed to see it was 6:33AM, a little early for us yet. I reached over and picked my phone up to see I had a message from my buddy, Thomas. "Hey, I just got into Kalispell last night! Parked up at a KOA just outside the city limits. Let me know when it'd be cool for me to swing by!" It read, making me chuckle a little.

"I just woke up, so anytime is good. My boss gave me the day off today since I helped out yesterday and we all a kinda hectic day…." I texted back, setting my phone down next to Lilly as I turned back over to her. As soon as I got comfortable against her, it buzzed as I got another message that read "Oh, didn't expect you to be up so soon….We'll probably be there around ten, okay?"

I smiled to myself and texted back "Sounds good to me! Just let me know when you're driving up." After a few moments, he texted back "Great, will do! See you after while!" I chuckled to myself again, looking down at Lilly still asleep. I put my hand on her side and started gently stroking her fur, making her purr more in her sleep.

Right then, her stomach started to growl and I could feel it through her side. I thought she might be hungry, but she suddenly curled up a little and let out a whimper of pain. "Lilly? You okay, hun?" I quietly asked in case she was still asleep. Her eyes fluttered open and she said "My stomach hurts a little….But, I'm okay."

I leaned over a little and kissed her cheek, asking "Are you sure?" She purred and nodded, saying "I'm sure. Good morning to you, too…." I chuckled as she turned over to face me, a sleepy smile on her face and she licked my cheek. "Morning, love….Sleep well?" I asked, starting to stroke her side again. She nodded and said "Pretty good. Any idea if anyone is else up yet?"

I shrugged and said "I haven't heard any of them yet, but it probably won't be too long. Thomas just texted me a few minutes ago….They're just outside Kalispell at a campground. He said they'll be here around ten." She smiled and nodded, saying "I can't wait to meet him! So, he's got a canine mate as well?"

I nodded and said "Yep, his baby, Bella. She's a hunting dog though, not a wolf like you. Just a quick question for you, though…." She smiled a little again and I asked "Promise you won't get territorial against her?" She giggled a bit and said "You know me, babe….Of course I won't. I might be a wolf, but it's not like I hate everybody in the world."

I chuckled and kissed her nose, saying "I know, I was just making sure….Anything you wanna do until we actually need to be up?" She giggled and laid her head back down, saying "Not really, I'm pretty comfortable here…." I smiled and gently pulled her against me, started to stroke her back and kissed her forehead, saying "So am I….You're really warm, love."

She giggled again and said "Well, I AM covered in fur….Fur holds heat really well…." I chuckled again as well and said "I meant that in more ways than just that….But, you probably knew that, huh?" She nodded and licked my neck, saying "Of course I did, I know you too well. Besides, the way you're getting all loving is telling me you have something you wanna do….Am I wrong?"

I kissed her nose again and said "Well, if you put it that way, there IS something that could be kinda fun." She looked up at me and asked "And what might that be, hmm?" I smiled and said "I'd really like it if you do something sexy for me…." She giggled a little and her tail started flipping around under the blanket as she asked "What exactly do you want me to do?"

"Whatever you think I'd like….You're creative." I chuckled, gently squeezing her butt. She giggled more and said "Hmm….I think I might know a couple things…." She slowly licked my neck a couple times before putting her paw on my chest and saying "Don't move, okay?" I nodded and she got up, turning around under the blanket and moving down toward my feet. I felt her nose rub against my man-hood as she went to the foot of the bed.

When she was down there, she moved around a little more until she stopped and said "Okay, pull the blanket off me…." I smiled and did so slowly to see her butt high in the air and chest on the bed, a sexy smile on her face. Her tail was covering her precious area though, making me wonder what she was doing. "Like what you see so far?" She asked with a little growl.

I quickly nodded and asked "More than just like….What do you have in mind, my beautiful lady?" She giggled a little and said "Oh, don't you worry about that….Just relax and enjoy, my loving boy…." I smiled again as she started slowly waving her butt side to side, letting her tail sway with her movements. It moved just enough to see brief glimpses of her womanhood and even with just the little peeks, you could see she was turned on.

"Does my tail seem kinda bushy to you?" She asked, wiggling the end of it around a little. I chuckled a little and said "Maybe a bit, but I love how it feels….Nice and soft…." She giggled again and said "It's also good for tickling…." With that, she dropped her hips down a little and flicked the tip of her tail along the bottom of my foot, making me laugh a little as she then flicked her tail up, exposing her womanhood.

"You know what else it's good for?" She sexily asked, raising her butt back up. I smiled at her and she giggled a bit again, quietly saying "Self pleasure…." She curved her tail down and tickled her own womanhood with the tip, causing herself to softly moan and shiver. "Mmm….Enjoying so far?" She asked, a devilish smile on her face.

Dakota's POV

I was woken up from the sun shining in my eyes, just like every normal morning. I turned my head and opened my eyes a little to see the bright orange sunrise shining through the window, lighting everything up. I let out a long yawn and felt Crystal starting to stir with a yawn as well. I smiled and said "Morning, beautiful…."

She smiled too and said "Hi, babe….Little early, isn't it?" I nodded and said "Kinda. Did you sleep well?" She smiled more and said "I slept great! Nice and warm…." I chuckled and said "Yes, you are….How're you feeling this morning?"

"I feel pretty good, actually, just kinda tired still. I know, it's been three days so far. Don't worry, I'm sure it worked." She said, putting her paw against my chest and kissing my cheek. I smiled a little and kissed her back, saying "I sure hope so….Then again, if it doesn't, we might not've picked quite the right time to try."

She nodded and said "It's possible. Are you still as confused as I am from yesterday?" I shrugged and said "Sorta….It was a lot to deal with, after all." She smiled and said "Yeah, it was….Can't believe our Dad's actually alive…." I chuckled and said "I'm sorta anxious to see Shadow and Todd's reactions…." She giggled and said "Yeah, no kidding!"

About then, we heard Alexis starting to wake up, getting our attention. We looked over to see her stretching out with a yawn before briefly opening her eyes and curling back up. Crystal smiled a little and said "Alexis, honey? You awake?" She nodded and said "Yeah….Don't wanna be, though…." Crystal rolled onto her stomach and asked "Feeling okay?"

"Sorta….My head hurts a little…." Alexis said, shifting around a little. Crystal got up and went over to her, putting her paw to her cheek before saying "You're a little bit warm….Anything else hurt?" Alexis shook her head and said "No, just my head." Crystal nodded and said "Okay, well, just relax for a little while. I'll keep an eye on you."

Alexis smiled a little and closed her eyes, turning onto her side a little. Crystal laid back down next to me and I asked "Probably just a headache?" Crystal smiled and said "Probably. If she's feeling any worse later, we'll do something about it." I nodded and kissed her cheek, saying "Feeling like coming outside with me?"

She smiled more and nodded, getting up with me and we went out to the living room, passing Mom and Dad's room on the way. I caught a little bit of a mating scent coming from their room and couldn't help but smile to myself as we walked past. We went over and I opened the door for her, letting her walk outside first.

"Thank you, babe!" She said, kissing my cheek as she walked out. I smiled again and went out behind her, pulling it closed and walked out downstairs with her to the main building door. We went out and she let out a soft sigh, saying "Really nice morning, isn't it?" I nodded and said "Sure is….Not as nice as you, though. I'd rather wake up to you anytime…."

She giggled a bit and said "Oh, stop….Go pee on something!" I chuckled and walked over to a bush next to the building, sniffing it before lifting my leg and peeing on it. I could feel her staring at me, so I looked to my side and sure enough, she was giggling to herself. I smiled and rolled my eyes, soon finishing what I needed.

"And you call me a perv sometimes…." I said as I walked back over to her, making her giggle more. "Turns out you're a dirty little girl all in yourself…." I chuckled and she said "Maybe I am….Does that bother you?" I smiled again and shook my head, kissing her nose as I said "Not a bit….I love it!" She giggled again and kissed me back, letting out a soft purr as she did.

"So, what should we do for a little while?" She asked as she pulled back, her tail wagging behind her. I shrugged and said "I don't know, just enjoy the morning, I suppose." She nodded and laid down in the grass, saying "Well, lay down with me then…." I smiled and did as she said, laying down and she leaned against me a little, resting her head on my back.

"Are we comfortable?" I chuckled and she giggled a bit, saying "Yeah….You're soft…." I smiled again and rolled my eyes, letting out a happy sigh as I laid my head down. She cuddled against me a little more, letting out a sigh as well and saying "Hey, babe?"

"Yeah, love?" I asked, turning my head so I could see her. She smiled a bit and asked "Do you think we made the right choice trying for pups again now?" I lifted my head and leaned back, nuzzling her the best I could as I said "Of course I do….I'll admit, I might not have thought it was a good idea at first, but I was wrong." She smiled more and nodded, saying "I was thinking the same thing….So, you don't think anyone would be upset if I am pregnant?"

I shook my head and kissed her cheek, saying "Not at all. If anyone does, they can take it up with my ass….It's the only thing that gives a crap…." She started laughing and I chuckled too as she said "Well, alright then. Probably don't wanna put it that way if anyone DOES have a problem, though….But still, that was funny!"

I chuckled more and said "Thanks, love! Why don't you get a little rest? You still look tired…." She nodded and shifted against me, closing her eyes and saying "Okay, babe….You're right, I am." I smiled and started rubbing my tail on her hip, making her smile and I said "I'll wake you up after a little while…."

Alexis' POV

I was woken up from feeling something making the bed move. I slowly opened my eyes to see Chase laying on his side next to me, seemingly asleep. I looked around the room to see Mom and Dad were gone, so I just shrugged to myself and closed my eyes, starting to doze off again.

I was nearly asleep a few minutes later when I felt it again, something making the bed shake. I opened my eyes again, but this time saw Chase's foreleg moving like he was scratching an itch. I lifted my head a little and my eyes went wide, seeing he wasn't scratching at all! He was pleasuring himself! "Um, Chase?" I asked, stifling a giggle.

His head shot around to see my smiling at him and he blushed cherry red, quickly rolling onto his stomach. "Alexis! I-I-I didn't….I didn't know you were awake…." He stammered, turning his head away. I couldn't hold back a giggle this time and said "Chase, it's fine, relax….We talked about this. I don't care if you're….having a little fun."

He sighed and said "I know….It just feels kinda wrong, though…." I nodded and said "I know it does, but it's something we can get used to. Mind if I ask why you started doing it though?" He shrugged and said "I don't know….I just wanted to, I guess." I smiled and nudged him, saying "I can tell you're not telling me the whole truth…."

He turned his head to face me, still blushing like mad and said "Well….Don't be upset, but….Your scent go to me…." I giggled a bit and nodded, saying "It's alright, I'm not mad. I take it you sorta like it, then?" He blushed a little more and nodded a bit, quietly saying "It does smell good…." I put my paw on his shoulder and asked "Want me to leave so you can finish up?"

He didn't say anything or even seem to acknowledge I asked him a question, so I took that as my cue to leave. I got up and started walking to the door, reaching up for the door handle when he said "You don't need to leave…." I looked back at him and smiled a little, asking "Are you sure? I understand if you're uncomfortable."

He nodded and said "I'm sure. After all, you're the one who said we shouldn't let this get between us." I smiled more and went back over to the bed, saying "Yeah, you're right. In that case, I'm gonna go back to sleep. Clean up after yourself , 'kay?" He blushed again and nodded, making me giggle as I laid down on my side facing away from him.

I felt him lay back onto his side and soon after, the bed slightly moving again. I silently giggled to myself and rolled my eyes, hearing him starting to breathe a little harder. I closed my eyes and started to feel like I'd fall asleep, but never actually did. I was starting to feel like I needed relief as well because of my own scent in the air, not to mention a slight musk from him.

Without saying anything, I rolled onto my back, feeling him stop what he was doing. Neither of us said anything, but I smiled to myself and let my legs fall apart, curling my tail up to my womanhood for a little fun. I closed my eyes and started tickling myself, letting out quiet sighs and moans. After a few moments, the bed started moving again and I could hear his breath get shaky. "Alexis?" He suddenly quietly asked. I didn't even open my eyes, but asked "Yes, Chase?"

"Is it okay if….I…um…." He shakily asked, making me smile since I knew what he wanted to ask. I nodded and said "It's okay, Chase. I'm not going to argue…." After a moment of hesitation, I felt him slowly roll over and I could actually feel him shaking a little. I opened my eyes to see him laying on his back now, blushing cherry red again and his paw covering his erection. He was staring at what I was doing, making me giggle.

"Chase, it's not polite to stare…." I giggled and he looked away, saying "Sorry….Just wondering what you were doing." I nodded and said "Same thing you are, basically. Obviously a little different since I'm a girl, but…." I reached down and touched my womanhood, causing myself to moan a little as I said "….Premise is the same…." He looked back at me and asked "Are you sure this is okay?"

I nodded and said "I'm sure, don't worry. I talked to Mom about it like I said I would and neither of them are upset with us. Just loosen up a bit, okay?" He smiled a bit and nodded, saying "Okay….You look like you're having fun…." I giggled and started very slowly rubbing myself, a slight gasp as I said "I really am….This feels really good…."

After a moment of hesitation, he started rubbing his paw along his erection, causing himself to groan a little. I smiled to myself and said "Looks like you're having a good time, too." He nodded and started going a little faster, lifting his foreleg up so his fur wasn't scraping along his wolfhood. It was in full view now and he knew it, but didn't seem to let it bother him.

3rd Person POV

Thomas was driving on the road that Google Maps told him to take. A few minutes later, he sees an apartment. He look at the street and apartment number, then at the apartment address on a piece of paper he wrote on. "I think this is it!" Thomas said.

"It's about time!" Bella said, giggling a little. Thomas shut the fuel pump off, which stopped the engine. He hopped out and opened the passenger door for Bella. "Thanks, babe." Bella smiled at him. "No problem, sweet stuff." He smiled back. Just as Thomas shut the door to his truck, the apartment door opened, and out stepped a male with glasses.

"Well, it's about time!" Cody chuckled, quickly walking over to him with Lilly by his side. They shook hands as Thomas said "Hey, it was a long drive….Besides, this place isn't exactly easy to get to…." Cody chuckled and said "Alright, fair enough….I take it this is the famous Bella, right?" She smiled and said "That's me! And you must be the also famous Lilly then!"

Lilly giggled and said "Right on! So, why are we so famous then?" Cody smiled at her and said "They've heard a lot about you and vice versa….Why don't we all go inside, hmm? Are you two thirsty or anything?" Thomas smiled and said "I'd take that shot of Jack you offered." Cody nodded and said "I didn't forget."

"Babe, we have to drive later, remember?" Bella asked, a worried look on her face. He bent down and kissed her, saying "It's just one small shot. He told me the first time we meet, we'll do a shot together. The only one I'll do, I promise." She smiled a little and said "Well, alright….I'm holding you to that promise, though!"

With that, they all walked inside the apartment building and up the stairs, Lilly and Bella in front and talking amongst themselves, mostly how beautiful each other were. Cody and Thomas looked at each other and just chuckled, Thomas saying "That didn't take them long…." Cody chuckled more and nodded as they got to the door, opening it and letting everyone go in.

"Well, welcome to our home, guys! Not much, but it works!" Cody said as they walked in, Thomas and Bella looking around everywhere. "Wow, pretty nice actually! Kind of a cabin type feel to it." Bella said, her tail wagging. Thomas nodded and said "Yeah, I like it! Not very big, but it works, right?" Cody chuckled and said "Yep, sure does! Comfortable, too!"

Right about then, Dakota, Crystal, Chase and Alexis came walking out from the bedroom and Crystal smiled, saying "Oh, you must to Tom and Bella, right!?" They nodded and Thomas said "I prefer just Thomas, but it's okay. Let me guess….Dakota, Chase, Alexis and Crystal?" They all smiled and Alexis said "I believe so, yeah!"

Everyone laughed a little and Dakota said "Well, it's nice to finally meet you two! Dad's told us a lot about you both." Bella smiled and said "Same for you guys, too! Not to mention you're all pretty well heard of on FanFiction as well…." Chase chuckled and said "It's kinda cool knowing people like to read about you. So, are you two married or just together?"

Thomas and Bella looked at each other and smiled, her saying "I wish we could be officially married…." He nodded and said "Same here, too…." Dakota smiled and said "If you're that much in love, does it really make a difference if someone says you belong to each other now?" Bella giggled and said "Well, no….It's just the thought, though."

Right then, Cody came in from the kitchen with two small shot glasses in his hands, handing one to Thomas and saying "Bottoms up!" Thomas took it with a smile and they knocked them back, everyone laughing a little as they did. "Man, that's some good stuff!" Thomas said, giving him the glass back. Cody smiled and said "Tennessee Honey! Best stuff in the world…."

"Yeah, it is! Oh, hey, I brought something with us for ya…." Thomas said, chuckling a bit. Cody put the shot glasses on the counter and said "Oh, yeah? Whatcha got?" He smiled again and said "It's out in the truck. Kind of a surprise, but I know you'll freak out!" Cody chuckled and said "Well, what're we standing in here for then!?"

A few minutes later after walking outside and to the truck he arrived in, Thomas climbed into the back and said "Alright, here it is! She's clean, I'll tell you that!" Cody climbed up as well and Thomas pulled the tarp off, uncovering a sparkling clean Cummins 4BT diesel engine! Cody's eyes went wide and he said "Is that….what I think it is!?"

"A four liter, turbocharged, 300 foot pounds of torque diesel burning girl? Yeah, maybe a little…." Thomas chuckled as Cody looked it over before looking up at him and asking "How'd you find this beast!? It looks brand new!"

"It was in the back of my uncles shed, under a tarp, collecting dust. I was cleaning the shed out after he passed and came across it. Still packed in the wooden shipping pallet from the factory, too. And what's even better is she runs, great too!" Thomas said, cutting some plastic straps off from around it. Cody smiled and said "Holy shit, man….Can't believe you found a brand new engine just laying in a shed! I've been looking all over the internet for a decent one."

"Well, don't bother looking anymore. This one's yours." Thomas said, shocking Cody who looked up at him with wide eyes and said "No, no way….I can't just take something like this." Thomas chuckled and said "You're not TAKING it, I'm giving it to you. I've got no use for it and you've told me you wanna build a nice Jeep again. So, here's your first step to that…."

Cody smiled and said "I...I don't know what to say...Thank you!" Thomas chuckled and said "Hey, don't mention it...Like I said, I don't have a use for it..." He leans over the side and pats the side of his truck, saying "...I've got all the diesel power I need right here. That little thing is a chew toy for this one..."

Well, how'd you all like this one? I know there's been speculation that Alexis and Chase may get together as mates, and while I'm not against the idea, I need to know how you all would like to see that. I think it could make things rather interesting, along with adding more drama at points. Need to make a shout out to "BoltandMaybelle4ever" for his help and participation in this chapter! You rock, bro!
