Everyone is entering the adult world. They have one last week long party before they begin the next chapter in their lives.","writing":"[center]The Year 5000: Chapter 16: A New Beginning\nBy\nAnthur[/center]\n\nMy sophomore year at university was quickly coming to an end. The big event was Zack, Vance, and Jacob were finally graduating from high school. All three furs were at the top of their class, but none earned the spot of class valedictorian. I recorded the event. \n\nI knew my brother was the largest fur at school. He'd told me as much. I had no reason to doubt him. Zack had grown into a giant of a wolf, and he was still growing. He towers above even the tallest hoof. His heavyweight build shows through his graduation gown. He takes his diploma from the principal. The shot fennec fox barely reaches to the middle of his belly. As much as Zack eats, he could easily make a meal of the smaller canine. \n\nI wasn't looking for her, but I was certain our mother wouldn't show up. She barely stayed for my graduation, and when she was there, she was on her phone. I saw no sign of her, and as far as I was concerned, she didn't deserve to be there.\n\nThe party that ensued was a weekend event. I rented a campsite at Long Lake. It was the same lake I'd taken Zack to for his 18th birthday the year before. Everyone was there except for Brent. He was spending the summer with his boyfriend again. Jacobs's parents even attended.\n\nThere were 15 furs in attendance. The day started with everyone playing in the lake. The parents talked while they sat back and enjoyed a few drinks. We stopped for lunch and dried off with a walk down one of the surrounding nature trails. The cookout that ensued rounded out the day. \n\nThe parents left shortly before sundown. Simon, Jacob, and Chris stayed but didn't participate in the sex that followed, although they did cuddle with us afterward.\n\n[center]* * *[/center]\n\nAfter another year of sitting on my ass and filling my brain with new knowledge, I was looking forward to putting my muscles to work. Our summer job was no less exhausting than it had been the year before. But I was with my brothers, which made it enjoyable.\n\nHue and Theo kept to their word of not working on the weekends. We spent most of our free time at their place. Their new house was just as isolated as our old one. We had no qualms about having an orgy in the backyard. The only ones who'd see us were the local wildlife.\n\n[center]* * *[/center]\n\nI was excited for my junior year. It felt like a repeat of high school, as Zack would now be going to school with me. I'd get to see almost all of my friends together in one place. I was excited to see Simon and Jacob on a regular basis. I understand we have our lives to live, and nothing lasts forever, but I didn't like going weeks or months without seeing them. \n\nEvery morning, the six of us would pile into the SUV. I'd drop Xander off at the high school. I'm two grades ahead of Zack and Vance, which leaves me feeling left out. I want to be in class with them but know I can't. \n\nZack and Vance shared a few classes with Simon and Jacob. The four furs would sit and keep each other company in class. It would go a long way to staving off the separation anxiety they both experience. \n\nThe seven of us would go to lunch together every day. I looked forward to it. It felt so wonderful to see them every day. Although I missed not having Xander and Chris with us.\n\nMay arrived, and with it came mine and my brother's birthday. I turned 21, and my brother turned 19. We celebrated our birthdays together on May 2nd. Everyone except for Brent was there. The party was something you'd do for a pup, complete with candles and presents wrapped in brightly colored paper. It was the first time in our lives that anyone celebrated our existence. It was a day to be happy. I tried my hardest, but I couldn't hold back my tears of joy. I let everyone know what they mean to me.\n\nA few days later, we got the traditional gift cards from our father. I didn't expect to receive one ever again. I figured our mother would keep them for herself. The envelope had our old address on it, but it also had a forward stamp on it as well. I had completely forgotten our mail was being forwarded to our new address.\n\n[center]* * *[/center]\n\nMy junior year came to an end. Along with it came the end of Chris's Guards training. He's a full-fledged member with all the perks that come with it. \n\nI was surprised to find out Chris had made up with his parents. He turned himself around. He's not the same fur he was three years ago. Chris proved himself, and his parents finally saw that. I know he didn't want to, but he begrudgingly agreed to move back into his old room.\n\nChris's training was complete, but now he begins his on-the-job training. Unlike the weekend warriors, his primary responsibility is law enforcement. His goal is to become an investigator. He plans to take night classes until he reaches his goal.\n\nWe had a quiet weekend before we started our summer job again. We saw Chris throughout the year, but this summer, he joined us to work for Hue. Xander had turned 15 and was old enough to work with his parent's permission, which they, of course, granted. \n\nHue offered jobs to Simon and Jacob. Neither fox was well suited for strenuous physical labor. Both foxes were tasked with tending to customers. \n\nAdin and Badir had spent time in the gym and put on some muscle over the previous year. Both felines were surprised at the changes as they slowly transitioned into muscly twinks. They were strong enough to help with the physical labor but also backed up Simon and Jacob when needed.\n\nHue has 11 furs working for him, including myself. He renamed the company T & H Arborist. Xander designed the new company logo. We all received new T-shirts. The base tan color was kept the same, except the logo was changed.\n\nNine furs was far too much for the jobs we were doing. We broke into two teams. Hue and Theo headed up the first team, while Zack and I headed up the second.\n\n[center]* * *[/center]\n\nWe started to run out of jobs by the end of summer. I earned more than I did the previous year, but only by a few thousand credits. I have close to $170,000 in my account. \n\nA few times, I contemplated dropping out of school and going to work for Hue. As much as I enjoyed working with him and my brothers, I know it's not what everyone wants. It's okay for a summer job, but it's not something everyone wants to do all year long.\n\nI pulled into the parking lot at Sebasticook as a senior. It was only the first day, but I felt the finality of it. When I was living with our mother, all I wanted was for time to move faster. But now that I'm enjoying life, the months pass by, and I don't know where the time went.\n\n[center]* * *[/center]\n\nI only have a few more months before I graduate. I attended a career expo with Adin and Badir last week. We've received over a dozen offers already. There's no way any of us wants to be separated from the pack. Working from home was an unnegotiable requirement. That eliminated about half of the potential employers right off the bat.\n\nIt didn't matter too much if the three of us worked for the same employer, but it would make things much more interesting. I spent the next few weeks doing my due diligence. The online info was a good start, but I can't base such an important decision on rumors. My professors were my greatest source of unbiased information. They pointed me towards a few former students who were working for the companies I was interested in. \n \nI talked to a few current employees to get some firsthand opinions. In the end, I settled on Somner Systems. They're a smaller tech company specializing in alternating the use of old human-made programs. Most of their work is precisely what I had gone to school for, and it shouldn't be much of a challenge for me.\n\nTheir headquarters is in Toronto. The city retained its name through the ages. History isn't my strong suit. I don't remember what country it was a part of, only that it hasn't existed for thousands of years. \n\nGiven the nature of the work, an online interview was acceptable. I logged onto the call and was surprised to find four furs staring back at me on split screens. All four were of the smaller variety. Two were domestic cats, the third a coyote, and the fourth was a skinny shepherd.\n\nThe feline with blue/grey fur spoke first. I assumed he was the boss. I felt outnumbered, but I didn't feel nervous. I wore a grey dress shirt. It hides some of my build but not all of it. I could see the astonished looks come across their faces as they realized I was most likely larger than three of them put together.\n\nThey were brief with the pleasantries. I thought my size might impact their opinions, but I quickly realized there was only one thing they were interested in, and my size wasn't one of them. They went over my education history. They seemed taken aback when they realized the giant wolf in front of them was also a high school valedictorian and top of his class at university.\n\nThe interview turned to technical info. It felt like a test. Fortunately, I'm good at those. They took turns asking me questions about problems only a grad in the field would know. I got a feeling the coyote didn't like me. His questions weren't difficult, but they were asked in a way that was designed to trip me up. At first, I thought it was an interview strategy, but his frustrated expression said otherwise. \n\nI answered the coyote's questions, and he grew increasingly flustered. He began to argue with me, which was a mistake. At first, I was nice, but I decided he needed to be put in his place. I began to correct him, which sent his ears flipping like mad. I told him he was wrong and proved it while his colleagues watched. Laughter erupted from the other screens as I demonstrated my knowledge and understanding was far greater than his. \n\nEventually, the blue feline had enough and put him on mute. The coyote disappeared from the screen in an angry huff. The questions from the remaining three were far friendlier.\n\nThe interview concluded. Adin and Badir had their interviews the following day. A week later, all three of us got job offers. The starting salary was $145,000 per year. The pay seemed incredible compared to the 39k my mother made, but that didn't include the money she received in support.\n\nI could easily make more than $145,000 per year working for Hue. But as I'm constantly reminded of, money isn't everything. I went to school for a reason. I like putting my muscles to work, but I also like using the one between my ears. I plan to help Hue and Theo when I can, but I need a balance, and so do my brothers. None of them, not even Adin and Badir, are afraid to work, but we didn't go to school to cut down trees.\n\n[center]* * *[/center]\n\nThe big day came. I wasn't the valedictorian this time, but I was third in my class. I was beaten out by a domestic cat and a border collie. I could have come in first place, but my ego didn't demand it. Spending time with my friends was more important to me than some arbitrary status symbol.\n\nThe class valedictorian of 5004 was a ginger tabby named Max. I liked him; we shared a lot of the same classes. We weren't friends, but we were friendly with each other.\n\nMax stood before the podium to give his graduation speech. Most of the highly intelligent furs are of the smaller variety. He had to stand on a footstool to reach the mic.\n\nHis speech was good, but it lacked creativity and any sort of inspirational message. There was a brief round of applause, but it felt forced, as though the audience was only doing it to be polite.\n\nDiplomas were handed out in alphabetical order. I had a long wait before they reached Zarkowski.\n\nThe party that ensued was calm and peaceful. We celebrated at our new home. Everyone I know was there. There was no movie this time, but we did play a few friendly yard games.\n\nThe adults left after the sun went down. That was when we started the next round of fun.\n\n[center]* * *[/center] \n\nI start my career in a week. For once in my life, I took a week off to enjoy myself. Except for Hue and Theo, my friends did the same. Adin, Badir, and I won't be able to help them much during the summer now that we have jobs of our own.\n\nThe company laptops came in the mail a few days later. We set up an office in the basement for the three of us. We added some backdrops to make it appear professional, as we'd have constant conference calls.\n\nI checked the new laptop on Saturday morning to find my first assignment. I had no intention of getting started early. This was the last reprieve I'd have for a long time.\n\nI got up early Monday morning. Technically, I can make my own schedule, but I get up with everyone else. My brother is 20 years old now, and I still have to get him out of bed.\n\nI'm officially a fully grown wolf. I haven't gained any height in the last 6 months, and my ability to build muscle has dropped off dramatically. I'm a late bloomer. I never expected to become so large, but I'm grateful I have. I'm seven feet tall and 464 pounds. I didn't want to become a heavyweight, but now that I have, I love it. Not only that, but my brothers love it as well.\n\nI don't have the double-strength muscle like my brother, but I'm more than powerful enough to tear the average fur to pieces. Theo has me beat by a few inches, but I have more muscle than he does. Hue is taller than me by a foot. My eyes are now level with the center of his chest. The good thing about becoming so large is I'm now big enough to take all 20 inches of his giant horse cock. \n\nIf someone were to tell me I'd grow up to have a 12-inch cock I wouldn't have believed him. My cock looks almost the same as my brother's did when he was 14 years old. The only difference is my adult penis is a darker shade of red, and my girth is greater. Most wolves are around 7 feet tall. I'm perfectly average for a wolf, although my heavy build sets me apart from the average lupin.\n\nI figured Zack's growth would have begun to slow by now; only the opposite has turned out to be true. As a pup, he grew like a weed. Back then, he gained around 5 pounds per month, but now he's gaining closer to 20. His growth is off the chart. He's nose to nose with Hue, and his growth shows no sign of slowing.\n\nMy little brother had surpassed a thousand pounds about a month ago. He's been officially twice my size for the last 6 months, and I love it. Best of all, his cock has grown with the rest of his body. The last time I measured it, the meat between his legs was a staggering 16 inches.\n\nVance is still a growing mountain lion. He's seven and a half feet tall and about 750 pounds. He'll never be as big as Zack, but his growth is keeping pace. \n\nUnlike Adin and Badir, Vance's little brother isn't so little anymore. Xander's growth is finally starting to accelerate. Unlike his massive older brother, Xander isn't shy. We all love that about both of them. Xander is as dedicated to working out as I was at his age. He constantly tells us that we're his source of inspiration and that he wants to be big and strong, just like his older brother.\n\nXander is now taller and far stronger than Adin and Badir. His continuing growth is a source of entertainment for all three of them. The three of them play games with each other like I used to with Zack. Xander isn't shy about asserting himself over his smaller brothers. Adin and Badir aren't the only ones who enjoy stroking his ego. \n\n[center]* * *[/center]\n\nMy first week of work was a strange but pleasant experience for me. Adin and Badir felt the same way. I kissed Zack goodbye every morning as he took Vance and Xander to school. Adin and Badir would exchange goodbye rubs with their two mountain lion brothers. The first day, I hugged Rodger and lifted him off his paws. I made no effort to hide my emotions as I whimpered on his shoulder. I gave Silvia the same treatment, although I was gentler with her.\n\nThe basement office helped make it feel like I was at work. The work felt like a continuation of university. The three of us did our work in our boxers and nothing else. Occasionally, we'd swap out to a dress shirt when we needed to make a video call.\n\nAt the end of the day, we'd head to the gym and join everyone else. Sometimes, Hue and Theo would join us. Sometimes, the two hoofs would spend the night. We had to get an air mattress. The spare bed is no longer big enough for myself and our 3 smaller felines. I usually let them cuddle on my chest before we split up between the air mattress and the spare bed. It didn't matter who I spent the night with. I'd always wrap myself around him and protect him in my sleep.\n\n[center]* * *[/center]\n\nI found myself falling into another routine as summer gave way to fall. Only this time, it was a routine I immensely enjoyed. I was with Adin and Badir all day. We kept each other company as we did when we were in class.\n\nThe trees shed their brightly colored leaves. The landscape became dull. It wasn't long before the land turned white with snow. \n\n5004 came to an end. It was the first time I celebrated New Year's. I only celebrated it because I had people to celebrate with.\n\nWinter was just as fierce as it was the year before. We took it upon ourselves to clear the driveway as we worked from home. Adin and his husband took turns with the snowblower, and I did all the shoveling.\n\nBefore I knew it, the snow had begun to melt, and the school year had come to an end. My brother had finished his junior year at university. Simon had a late start, but he graduated this year.\n\nWe all attended Simons's graduation. The party was held at his house. His parents aren't bad people; they're just overwhelmed by life. But they managed to be proper parents and give their son a proper party. I hadn't been to his house in over a year. His parents were shocked to find their tiny 5-foot-tall son was friends with giants.\n\nAs planned, Simon applied to Global Parts Manufacturer as a maintenance technician. It also happened to be the same company my mother works for. The only difference is he'll be working the day shift, and there's no chance he'd accidentally run into her.\n\nI know Simon was eager to experience the world for himself. But for now, he would continue to live at home and save his money.\n\n[center]* * *[/center] \n\nAdin, Badir, and I weren't able to help Hue and Theo that much during the summer. Unlike the rest of my brothers, we didn't get a summer break. Even Simon has a job now.\n\nThe rest of my brothers were more than enough help. Jacob took care of customer issues. \n\nSummer quickly came to an end, and they began their senior year of university. I've lived in the same house with my brothers for over 3 years now. We know everything there is to know about each other. A six-way relationship should be too difficult to manage, but none of us can get enough of one another. We love each other to death. We're more than just a family; we're a pack. \n\nOur scholars often debate the significance of being created by another species. The society we've created for ourselves is nothing like the one that existed before us. We have some petty crimes, but the traits that rot a society were intentionally excluded from our DNA.\n\nI like being a wolf. I've never met a human, but I'm larger and more powerful than any human who has ever lived. On top of that, I'm smarter than 99% of the humans who existed before the collapse. There's no way nature could produce a creature like me, let alone someone like my brother. Out of all the gifts we've received as a people, there's one I value above all others. It's not our physical strength or intellect; it's our ability to form deep bonds that last a lifetime. Not every fur possesses such qualities. My mother is a perfect example of that.\n\nSome furs were made to perform menial tasks. I suspect my mother is a mix of a worker and a pleasure model. It would explain her lack of drive and her overactive need for sex. I suspect the need for sex is one thing I inherited from her, but I've also never met my father, so I can't say for certain.\n\nNot every fur can form the kind of relationship that I share with my packmates. It's the one thing I value about being a fur above all. Our need for each other is constant and consuming. I can't stand being away from them for more than a few hours. \n\nI know I have some time, but I always have a plan. I'd like nothing more than to continue living with Rodger and Silvia, but we need to make lives for ourselves. Vance's parents love us, and we love them, but we can't live with them forever.\n\nI thought about it throughout the winter. I formed a plan and did the math. I might be the alpha of our pack, but that means I put their interest above my own. 5005 will come to an end in a few weeks. After that, we have 5 months before everyone graduates.\n\nI called for a family meeting. I asked Rodger and Silvia to join us. For once, I managed to put a shirt on. Everyone settles in the living room. I stand in front of the group. All eyes are turned toward me. It's not often I'm this serious. \n\n\"I know you guys have never said it out loud, but I know you've elected me to be your alpha.' I pause as everyone looks at each other and wakes up to the reality of what I just said. I wait as they quietly agree with me. 'I love each and every one of you more than anything in the world. You're the only thing that matters to me. I would die for any one of you. An alpha takes care of his pack, and that's what I want to do.\"\n\nThe room gets quiet. \"I want us to get a house together.\"\n\nThere's an awkward pause. A second later, I'm tackled to the floor. My half-ton brother wraps his arms around me. Everyone else piles on top of us. I don't resist as I'm smothered with affection.\n\nThe room grows loud with purrs. I return everyones nuzzles as fast as I can. The purs grow quiet, and everyone slowly comes to their senses. Zack releases his grip on me, and I sit up. \"Alright, everyone, back to your seats. We have more to discuss.\"\n\n\"Yes, alpha,\" my brother says with a playful snicker. \n\nI rise to my paws. I have a feeling everyone will mess with me later, but I'm looking forward to it.\n\nI resume my speech. \"I don't want us to buy a house. I want us to build one.' I pause as everyone grows even more excited. Fortunately, this time, everyone restrained themselves. 'The only problem is I don't know where we should live. I'd like for us to spend a few years exploring the country to determine where we want to live. That said, I'd like to get one of those giant 5th-wheel campers.\"\n\nI knew it was coming before he did. Xander means too much to me. I could never leave him alone. I walk up and kneel in front of him. \"None of us can be without you, Xander. I want you to come with us.\"\n\nHe looks worried, and I know why. He graduates from high school this year. He feels he should attend college like his brother and the rest of us. \n\nI reach up and caress the side of Xander's face. He leans into my touch and looks like he might cry. \"I know you think you should go to college. And if that's your decision, then we'll wait for you. But I want you to know everything we have is yours. You'll never need to pay bills or want for anything. You're more important to us than money. You're a brother to us. We want you, Xander, and we want you to be with us for the rest of our lives.\"\n\nXander couldn't hold back any longer. He wraps his arms around my neck and begins to cry. I hugged him tight and stroked his head to comfort him. His cries turn to whimpers, and our eyes meet. \"I want you to be happy. You're more important to me than money. You're an amazing artist, Xander, the best I've ever seen. I want art to be your career. I've seen what you can do. I doubt there's anything a school could teach you.\"\n\nXander wipes away tears and looks up at me. \"So what would I do?\"\n\n\"You'd travel with us while we explore and figure out where we want to build our home. It'll be your home, too. We need you with us. Your opinion matters to us. You can start a career of your own doing what you love.\"\n\n\"I'd like that, Alex.\" \n\n[center]* * *[/center]\n\nThe sex that followed was something I'd never done before and something I'll never forget. We went to the gym to enjoy one of the private showers. All five of my brothers fucked me that night, one after the other. I had so much cum leaking out of me it was ridiculous. \n\nI've never had so much sex before at one time. My four felines went first. Their bards drove me crazy. As soon as one finished, the next climbed on my back and penetrated me with all the strength he had.\n\nNone of them would touch my cock, but it didn't stop cum from leaking out of me. Zack went last. My massive beast of a brother got inside me and filled me so full I thought I was going to pop. Every orgasm, my belly would swell a bit more and a little bit more.\n\nZack hit me so hard I orgasmed with him. When it was over I layed there while they licked me clean.\n\nNobody objected to my plan. The conversation eventually evolved into a matter that many couples avoid, and that was merging our finances. We trust each other with our lives. We share everything, even toothbrushes. They trusted me to set things up. \n\nEveryone insisted on splitting the cost of the camper. I knew better than to argue. I may have changed a lot in the last 4 years, but I'm still cheap when it matters. I had no interest in wasting our money on a new one. Hell, I didn't even want to buy a used one, but it was still a better option than renting one.\n\n[center]* * *[/center] \n\nNobody buys a camper in the middle of winter. It was a perfect time as used ones were practically being given away. I went with the largest one I could find. A new one cost around 100k, but we ended up getting a used one for $50,000 credits. Each of us contributed a little over 8k.\n\nWe cleared away the snow from alongside the garage. It would stay there until summer. The batteries will run everything for months, but using the heater reduces that to a few weeks. We hooked it up to the house power.\n\nWe're still learning what it means to be an adult. We're still finding our way, but we're doing it together. I've dreamt of having my own place since I was a pup. The trailer is nice and'll meet our needs while we travel, but it's a bit tight for 6 furs. Fortunately, the bed is more than large enough to accommodate all 6 of us.\n\n[center]* * *[/center]\n\nThe snow began to melt as winter gave way to spring. I began to make a list of places we'd like to travel to and what we'd like to see. None of us wanted anything structured. We'd go where we wanted and stay until we felt it was time to move on. \n\nZack will be doing the same kind of work that I am. I introduced my brother to my boss and set him up with an interview. I've never met my boss in real life. He's a domestic cat with calico fur. His name is Avery. He was shocked to see the size of my brother as he sat next to me. His interview was much like mine. Zack is just as smart as I am and had no trouble passing their test.\n\nVance chose a slightly different career path. He's a programmer like us but prefers the financial side of things. There's a lot of overlap, and he has the four of us to help him if he needs it. He'll be working from home just like the rest of us.\n\nJacob is just like Simon. Those two foxes have always been inseparable, but now their lives are drifting closer together. Jacob is a mechanical engineer, just like Simon. He hasn't graduated yet, but he's already accepted a job at G.P.M. Jacob asked to be assigned to Simon's department, and his request was granted. They will work together and see each other at work every day. They've even hinted at getting an apartment together, but I think they plan to wait a year.\n\n[center]* * *[/center]\n\nThe big day came. Everyone except for our mother was there for the graduation. I filmed Jacob and Vance accepting their diplomas. My brother, like me, was one of the last ones to get his.\n\nThe party was held at Vance's house. Everyone, including Jacob's parents, were there. We had dinner and played games. The graduates received gifts, even Xander. High school graduation was in a few days, but Xander got to enjoy his party and presents early.\n\nThere are several chairs for the giants. Any ordinary chair would collapse under their weight. I take a seat on my brother's lap and hand him a beer. He puts his treat to his lips and swallows. \"I'm so proud of you, Zack.\"\n\nZack wraps his free arm around me. \"Thanks, Alex, and thanks for giving me such a great life.\"\n\n\"You're welcome,' I say with a smile. 'And don't forget we're just getting started.\"\n\n\"I know, but if it weren't for you, none of this would have happened.\"\n\n\"Maybe,\" I say as I take a swig of my beer.\n\n\"Alex, I might be more than 3 times your size, but you're still my alpha,\" my brother says sincerely.\n\nI lean in and nuzzle him with my muzzle. \"I know. And I could only be the alpha because you guys choose me.\"\n\n[center]* * *[/center]\n\nAll of us have jobs now. We could no longer help Hue and Theo with their tree-cutting business. We stuck around for a few days, but it was time for us to begin our adventure. I knew the first place I wanted to visit; everyone was enthusiastic about spending the summer camping.\n\nI drove past our old house with the 5th wheel in tow. For once, the lawn had been mowed. It looked unchanged. I hadn't checked up on our mother in a long time. I try to put any thought of her out of my mind.\n\nI continue north. My brother keeps me company in the passenger seat. He's too big now to operate our SUV comfortably. I enjoy shofering him around.\n\nWe're surrounded by forest on a back road. I'm familiar with the area and don't need a map. I turn right. I crack the window to let in the familiar scents of nature and cooking meat. This time, I turn left towards the campground. I stopped at the booth, confirmed our reservation, and made our way toward the far side of the campground.\n\nI made reservations over a month ago. We deserved a good long break, so I reserved it for 30 days with the option of extending it. It's one of the best spots in the campground. I slowly back the trailer towards the shore of the lake. We're surrounded by forests to our left and right. The space is too tight to turn it parallel with the shore. Zack disconnects the camper, and I pull the SUV forward in case we need to go somewhere. We hook up the power and water and deploy the camper's pop-out extensions. The canopies are unrolled.\n\nThe back of the camper is feet from the shore. We'll have a perfect view when we wake up every morning. The spot came with a picnic table and several wooden lawn chairs. Zack and Vance walked down to the tiny office to get a few more chairs and ones that would support their weight.\n\nThey returned to find the rest of us without our shirts on. They followed suit. A short patch of forest separates us from the neighbors to our right, but to our left is nothing but wilderness. The trailer helps block our view of the neighbors, but there are rules against nudity. We don't dare to violate them, at least not while the sun is up.\n\nThis was a special occasion. It was steaks and fish fillets for everyone, along with corn on the cob and potato salad. We sat at the picnic table and ate together as a pack. \n\nWe all felt it. Being on our own felt sureal and wonderful at the same time. Over the years, we've grown accustomed to living together. We've never argued or fought because we loved each other too much.\n\n[center]* * *[/center]\n\nA few weeks went by. During the day, the five of us would sit around the picnic table and work on our projects. Xander was the only one without a traditional job, but he was quickly finding people willing to spend money on his art.\n\nWe took in everything the campground and the surrounding area had to offer. We swam and played together in the lake. Hue and Theo joined us, and we went canoeing and hiking on the weekends. We paddled to the other end of the lake and back several times. We hiked up the eastern side of Long Lake and even went as far as Short Pond, which was several miles northeast.\n\nEven though we spent each day working, it didn't feel like work. Even though we haven't found our permanent home yet, this is what I want my life to be like. This has been my dream since I was a pup. Where we live isn't important as long as we're together. This has been the first time in my life that I haven't been separated from the ones I love, not even for a moment. I would feel their bodies pressed against me as I went to sleep at night, and their faces were the first thing I would see in the morning. We were together every minute of every day. I didn't want to be separated from any of them ever again. \n\nWe enjoyed the campground, but I knew we'd need to explore somewhere new soon. I wanted to have one last party to celebrate with our friends before we leave the area. \n\nOther than video calls, I hadn't seen Brent since high school. It's hard to believe I hadn't seen the coyote in over 6 years. I called him and pleaded with him to come and visit. Fortunately, it didn't take much convincing. I think even he knew it was time for him to come home. I would have been happy with just one day, but he agreed to stay for a week.\n\nI was so excited I felt faint. I planned the week around Brent's visit. We'd finally get to meet his boyfriend. I had to extend our reservation for another week. We all took the week off, even Zack and Vance, although they felt nervous about taking time off after starting their jobs so recently.\n\nI waited in the airport terminal with a mix of trepidation and excitement. Everyone from our old gang was with me to greet them. Adin and Badir had never met them in real life, but they weren't strangers.\n\nTheir plane landed 10 minutes early. I watched as furs left the plane and entered the terminal, but there were only two I was looking for. I saw my friend, who I hadn't seen in so many years. He looks exactly the same as he did when he was in high school. The neon-dyed fur is gone. His fur is back to his natural grey and brown. All of his piercings are gone. Even his clothes resemble what he used to wear.\n\nI push through the crowd. Brent's eyes widen as he sees me, and I know why. The last time he saw me, I was only 6 feet tall, but now I'm a foot taller and about 250 pounds heavier.\n\nBrent walks towards me, but I don't slow down. His tail sways casually. Mine feels like it's about to fly off. He opens his arms, and I do the same. Brent didn't expect it, but I couldn't stop myself. I reach down and scoop the little coyote up in my arms. His paws dangle in the air as I hold him against my chest. I hugged him tightly as he wrapped his thin arms around my neck.\n\n\"I missed you,\" I whimper as my eyes begin to water.\n\nI feel his grip tighten. \"I missed you too, Alex.\"\n\nI can hear it in his voice. He's doing his best not to cry. I held him to the point it got awkward. People were staring at us, but I didn't care. I didn't want to let him go, but eventually, I had to. I returned his paws to the floor. He looks up at me. \n\n\"God damn, Alex, you got big.\"\n\nI smile at him. I motion towards my brother and Vance. \"Yeah, we all did.\"\n\nBrent's jaw drops as he takes in the two giant beasts standing beside me. Zack squats down on his hunches, but even then, he's still taller than the tiny coyote. Zack opens his arms, and Brent steps into them. Zack's arms fold around him, and he almost disappears.\n\nBrent rubs his muzzle against a head that's nearly as wide as his shoulders. Zack had the same problem I had. He didn't want to let him go. The giant wolf realizes he needs to share and releases him.\n\nVance and Brent used to be boyfriends. Their past makes them hesitate. Brent looks up at the giant mountain lion. All he can say is, \"Hi Vance.\"\n\nVance breaks down the moment Brent says his name. He begins to cry as he scoops him up in his arms. They held each other far longer than any of us expected. I was expecting an emotional reunion, but I can sense there are still some unresolved issues between them.\n\nBrent knows Chris joined the Guards. Chris has his own life now, although he hasn't found a girlfriend yet. Brent has seen the yellow lab mix on video calls, so he knows he's bulked up since their days in high school. I can tell the coyote is overwhelmed by how much everyone has changed. \n\nBrent exchanged hugs with the furs, who were closer to him in size. Simon and Jacob were next. Unlike the rest of us, Simon and Jacob haven't changed since high school. Smaller furs tend to start late and finish early regarding growth. \n\nAs small as Brent is, he's still taller than the tiny foxes. Next was Xander. Brent was surprised to find Vance's little brother now towers over him. Lastly, it was Adin and Badir's turn. I couldn't tell who was taller, the coyote or the felines. No matter who was taller, it was obvious Adin and Badir had more muscle than the skinny canine. \n\nBrent turns his attention toward the ram, standing quietly off to the side next to their luggage. He walks up to him, takes his hand, and leads him towards the group. We know who he is. He doesn't need an introduction. I may not be the largest of our group, but I'm the alpha. I step up to Lane confidently with open arms.\n\n\"It's good to finally meet you, Lane,\" I say as I wrap my arms around the shorter ram. He hesitates. I don't think he expected to receive such an affectionate welcome.\n\nLane returns the hug. \"It's nice to meet you too, Alex.\"\n\nI want us to be friends, but I want to get it across without being pushy. This isn't a time for words. I lean in and rub my muzzle alongside his. I go slowly so my intentions are clear. Lane's expression softens, and he returns the rub.\n\nLane makes the rounds with the rest of the group. I feel overwhelmed by nostalgia. It feels as though I'm in high school again. It felt like any other day when we would gather in the hallway before our first class and hang out as friends. It feels like the last 6 years never happened. Only they did happen.\n\nAdin and Badir are the newest to join the group. Brent talks with them like they're friends catching up on old times. I'm not paying attention to their conversation, but judging by the way his ears dip, I'd say Badir is flirting with him. \n\nMy days in high school come rushing back to me. I took a moment to stand back as joyful memories came flooding back to me. My childhood wasn't the greatest, but I'm reminded of the good parts. \n\nThis truly is a new chapter in my life. Brent is my friend. We've been friends since we were pups. He has his life to live, but I can't help feeling like I want to be a part of it.\n\n[center]* * *[/center]\n\nBrent and Lane arrived on Friday, July 4th. For some reason, that day seemed significant to me, but for the life of me, I couldn't remember why.\n\nThere was no way all 8 of us, along with their luggage, would fit in the SUV. Simon has his own vehicle now. Adin, Badir, and Jacob rode with him. Chris followed in his car.\n\nI pull into the campground a little before 3 pm. I texted Hue and Theo before leaving the airport and found them already starting dinner. I parked the SUV in the usual spot in front of the camper. Chris parked behind Hue's truck, and Simon parked alongside Chris's car. \n\nThe two hoofs are shirtless. It's the beginning of July, and it's far too hot to wear shirts. I pulled mine off, and everyone else followed suit. I watched with amusement as Brent unbuttoned Lane's shirt for him. I realized the ram couldn't wear a regular T-shirt, not with the huge curved horns atop his head.\n\nThe ram wriggles as Brent pulls the shirt from around his broad shoulders. Lane stands tall and puffs out his chest. Brent and I share one thing in common: we both like big guys. Lane is about 6 inches shorter than me, but if you include his huge curved horns, then he's slightly taller.\n\nLane is massive compared to his boyfriend. Brent only comes up to the middle of his chest. Lane obviously works out. He has an impressive medium build. There's no way someone gets that big without regular visits to the gym. \n\nThere was another round of introductions. The three hoofs exchanged pleasantries with one another. For some reason, I expected them to behave differently with each other, but they're just like any other fur.\nThat's one of the amazing things about furs. We make no distinction between carnivores and herbivores. If we like each other, our species doesn't matter. \n\nOur first day together reminded me why I worked so hard throughout my life. Being surrounded by people I care about is what makes life worth living. Being with them is worth more to me than any amount of money.\n\nWe're getting good at hosting large cookouts. This is a special occasion, and we spared no expense. All of us, including Xander, enjoyed a beer with our meal. Lively conversations ensued. We hadn't seen Brent in years, and Lane was new to the group. All focus was on them.\n\nNone of us were in the mood for any vigorous activities. We'll have time for that tomorrow. Most of us sat around and talked. Chris, Xander, Adin, and Badir walked to the other end of the campground for a friendly 2v2 game of hoops.\n\nTall trees surround the campsite and keeps everyone in the shade. The hot summer air feels nice, but the shade improves everyone's mood. A soft breeze blows through the trees and carries with it the scent of pine. The constant sound of waves lapping at the rocky shore adds to the tranquil setting. It was after 6 pm, the food shack was closed, and along with it went the distant smell of cooking meat.\n\nVance and Theo gathered some wood and started a fire. The flickering flames and the scent of burning wood pulled everyone together like moths to a lamp. Lawn chairs were gathered around the fire pit. We sat together to watch the sunset. We reminisced about school and our jobs. Brent and Lane talked about their time living in New Seattle. Xander and Brent hit it off as they're both exceptional artists and have that in common. \n\nThe sky became streaked with reds and pinks. We relived our days in high school. We talked about some of our classmates we hadn't seen in years. Adin and Badir retold the story of the pitbull Mark, whom I had gotten violent with. Brent and Lane seemed concerned until Badir told them the reason why.\n\nThe sun disappeared below the hills, and the sky turned black. Stars shine through breaks in the canopy above. Light from the moon reflects off the lake. I don't think about it as I get up from my chair. I don't say a word as I scoop Brent up in my arms. I return to my chair and hold him in my lap. Brent leans into me as I wrap my arms around him. I get the impression he's wanted this for a long time. Lane gives me an annoyed look. But my brother rises from his chair and interrupts his stare. Zack holds his arms out, beckoning the ram to cuddle with him.\n\nLane smiles as he gets up. My brother picks him up like he's a rag doll. Zack returns to his seat, and Lane nestles in his lap. \n\nXander senses what's about to happen. \"Hey, would you guys like to play cards?\" He directed his question at the non-gay furs in the group.\n\nChris knows our end-of-the-day habits better than Simon and Jacob. \"Sure, Xander, I'd love to. Simon, Jacob?\" Chris poses the question suggestively.\n\nSimon and Jacob haven't witnessed our activities firsthand, but they know what we do when the lights go down low. Neither fox has had a girlfriend. They've claimed to have had sex before on one-night stands. I have no reason to doubt them. From what they've said, it's only happened a few times. \n\nI love both of them, but they're less adventurous when it comes to sex than the rest of us. Even though they're straight, they're just like us in almost every way. Both foxes want a relationship that will last them the rest of their lives. Every few months, they stick their paws in the dating pool, but neither fox has found the right one yet. \n\nThey haven't said it explicitly, but I sense their reluctance is because they want to start a family. Wanting to have children limits their choice of a mate to only canines. There are plenty of families where the female is of a different species. If it weren't for sperm donors, then our society would be significantly different from what it is today.\n\nOne thing that's universal among my brothers and my friends is none of us have any interest in having children. Our society is the result of human needs and wants. The rule of thirds prevails to this day. One-third of our population is gay, another third is bisexual, and the remaining third is straight. It was done that way for one reason only. They needed giant males to do the hard physical labor they were unwilling to do themselves. \n\nHumans on Earth died out thousands of years ago. Some escaped before the collapse, but they've never returned. The fate of that far-flung colony is unknown. Nobody has ever met a living human, and history was my least favorite subject. From what I remember, humans were predominantly heterosexual. Furs were everything from slaves to beloved companions. Giant, physically powerful furs were in great demand. From what I understand, giant muscular furs weren't that popular among the heterosexual population. \n \nThere are many options available to us if we choose to raise children. The most obvious is the old-fashioned way, but that comes with its own complications. Surrogacy is another option. We still have a few functioning labs that can make furs in tanks the same way our creators did; however, that option is extremely expensive. And lastly, there's always adoption.\n\nSimon and Jacob have desires I'll never understand. I don't envy them. \nI can't imagine falling in love with someone and that person leaves you.\nI've experienced firsthand what can happen to children when parents separate. It's something else entirely to be separated from your pups. I can only hope they find the right one and no one gets hurt along the way.\n\nThere's not enough sleeping space in the camper. I rented 2 additional camping spots for the week. I went the extra mile and got spots with lean-tos. I also rented air mattresses from the main office. I provided the rest of the supplies myself.\n\nXander disappears into the camper to retrieve a plastic case filled with various games. \"I'll take spot 114,\" he announces to the group as he leads them into the night.\n\nSimon, Jacob, and Chris follow behind the teenage mountain lion. I watch as waging tails pass through rays of moonlight shining down from breaks in the canopy. A street light illuminates the bend in the road. Moths and other insects flutter around the light. I listen to their laughter as they fade into the night.\n\nI can sense male urges slowly building among the group. Casual petting turns into heavy petting, which quickly leads to caresses and kissing. Hue rises from the oversized wooden lawn chair, and Theo joins him. The enormous hoof motions for Vance to join them.\n\nHue walks up to Lane and Zack. \"Hey, Lane, would you mind if I take Zack for tonight? I have a feeling you three have some catching up to do.\"\n\nHue isn't subtle about what he's implying. I don't mind being the alpha of the group, but they also make it easy for me. Hue knows how far back my friendship with Brent goes. I've known him longer than anyone in our group. We have a lot of catching up to do.\n\nZack releases his grip, and Lane rises to his hooves. \"Sure, Hue.\"\n\n\"Thanks, Lane,\" says the enormous hoof as he pulls his shorts off. I can see Lane's shocked expression even in the dim light. Hue gives the ram a view of his rump as he walks away. Theo, Vance, and Zack follow behind him. Vance disappears into the camper and returns a moment later with what I assume was a bottle of lube. Shorts are removed and piled up on one of the picnic tables.\n\nMy brother's black fur makes him almost invisible in the darkness. Hue and Theo's dark brown fur makes them equally hard to see. Vance is the only one who stands out.\n\nOur lot is at the furthest end of the campground. We're somewhat isolated from our fellow campers. I listen to hooves crunch on the dirt. The four giants pass under the street light on the corner. The sound of footsteps changes as they find the paved road. The sound of hooves crunching on gravel returns as they turn onto the hiking trail that spans the lake's western side.\n\nI know what the four giants plan to do. There are plenty of secluded places along the trail where they can hide to have some fun. Fucking in the forest is a favorite of mine. They won't be caught as long as they refrain from making too much noise. Overall, Hue and Theo aren't that loud, but they do grunt loudly when they climax. My brother will growl when he's feeling especially aggressive. Our felines are the noisiest when it comes to sex. They tend to hiss and screech like wild cats when they fuck.\n\nI'm along with Brent and his boyfriend. I find myself in an awkward situation. I give the coyote a gentle squeeze. \"Brent, I'm so glad to see you again. You don't know how much I missed you all these years.\" \n\nBrent leans against my chest and sighs softly. I know the reason why. He loves his boyfriend, but he doesn't know how to share. \"I missed you too, Alex.\"\n\n\"Lane, would you join us, please.\" The ram takes a seat in the lawn chair next to me. Once he's situated, I rise from my chair. The campfire burns steadily, but the flames no longer dance above the rim of the firepit. There's enough flickering light to make out the surprised look on his face as I place Brent in his lap.\n\nI turn my chair around so we're looking at one another. My tone is serious but friendly. It feels as though I'm hosting a business meeting. \"I realize we don't have a lot of time together. I don't want to waste what time we have, so I'll just come out and say it. I love you, Brent.\"\n\nLane begins to squirm, and I know why. Brent nods his head but doesn't say anything. Like it or not, I'm still the alpha, even in this situation. \"I know this is our first time meeting in person, Lane. But we've known each other for years. I want Brent in my life. I want you in my life. I want both of you.\"\n\nLane looks confused. \"What do you mean, Alex?\"\n\n\"Brent belongs to you just as my brother belongs to me. Hue has Theo. Adin and Badir are married. Vance has his little brother. Brent will be yours forever. I don't want to waste our time together with subtle hints. \nWhat I'm saying is, would you like to join the pack?\"\n\nLane figures out what I'm getting at. He realizes I want both of them. \"You want me to?\" he asks hesitantly.\n\nI nod my head. \"I do. We aren't strangers, but we don't have time to get to know each other the old-fashioned way. All I can do is tell you how I feel.\"\n\n\"I think I'd like it more if you showed me,' Lane says as he jostles Brent back to reality. The coyote snaps out of his daze. 'Alex, I do like you and the others too. And you're right, we don't have a lot of time together. Brent means everything to me. I know he's wanted to be with you for a long time.\"\n\n\"Hey!\" Brent yells in protest.\n\nLane squeezes him. \"Come on, Brent. Alex is right. We don't have time to waste. I want you to be happy. And to be honest, I'd like to give this a try.\"\n\nBrent turns to his boyfriend. \"You do?\"\n\n\"Sure. We won't know if we like it if we don't try it. I don't want you living with regret.\"\n\nBrent wraps his arms around Lane's neck and cries on his shoulder. Lane rubs his back. The two furs look at each other and then turn their attention to me.\n\n\"Come on, let's head over to the other lean-to,\" Lane says to the both of us.\n\nThe three of us rise from our chairs. I make a quick detour to the camper to retrieve a bottle of lube. It's a good thing we have a backup. I reserved a spot just for Brent and Lane. Unfortunately, campsite 98 was the closest one I could get.\n\nI toss the bottle to Lane and scoop Brent up in my arms. I cradled him in my arms as I held him against my chest. The small coyote rubs his muzzle against my neck. \"Alex, I still can't get over how big you got.\"\n\nI chuckle as I remember what we were like back in high school. \"Don't worry, Brent. I won't hurt you.\"\n\nWe keep our shorts on. We hit the pavement and passed under the street light. The swarm of insects has grown thicker since Xander left to play cards with the guys. We stroll past their campsite. A light is on in their lean-to.\n\nEvery campsite is occupied. The ones with campers have TVs playing. Even the ones with tents have plug-ins for devices. Some furs are gathered around tables or lawn chairs, watching videos on various devices. I spot a family of grey wolves gathered around a fire pit. The parents sit and watch their two pups throw pinecones and other small sticks into the fire. I couldn't help but feel like that is what my childhood should have been like.\n\nI set Brent on his paws as I heard a group of furs in the road up ahead. All of a sudden, a glow-in-the-dark ball comes bouncing in my direction. I reached out and snatched it up. I can make out a dark figure chasing after it. I toss it in his direction. The fur comes to a stop as the ball unexpectedly returns to him.\n\nMy black fur hides me in the darkness. I step into a ray of moonlight, and he sees me. To my surprise, he's a grey wolf, maybe 16 years old. I figured he must belong to the family I had just passed. He looks surprised. I don't think he expected to meet another wolf, let alone one so large.\n\n\"Hey, thanks,\" he says.\n\n\"Hey, no problem.\"\n\nI stroll past him to find three other furs on the road. One appears to be a lynx, another is a collie, and the fourth is a young tiger. \n\nI leave them to their game. I find a wooden pole with 98 on it. I turn into the campsite, and my paws again find dirt and grass. Every campsite has a standard picnic table, fire pit, and electrical hook-up. Most are otherwise bare and open, with plenty of space for furs to set up tents. The only difference is this campsite comes with a sizeable wooden lean-to.\n\nThe wooden structure sits nestled in the woods at the furthest end of the campsite. It's built on concrete pilings. I grab hold of the handle and pull the screen door open. I step inside, Lane and Brent follow behind me. I find the lamp hanging from the rafters and switch it on. \n\nThe lamp illuminates the spacious room. It can accommodate 8 furs comfortably. I set the bottle of lube on a crude wooden table. The back wall is wood from floor to ceiling, but the other three walls only rise to chest height. The remaining gap is filled with screens to keep the bugs out. \n\nThe structure is as basic as it gets, but it provides adequate shelter for those who don't want to sleep in a tent. The screen door is flimsy. \nI pull it and latch it shut to help keep the bugs out. My ears twitch as a mosquito buzzes around my head. I clap my hands together and crush the annoying insect. I brush the tiny corps from my hand.\n\nI feel the tension in the air. As sizable as Lane is, I'm still larger than both of them put together. I want to start with Brent, but my instincts tell me otherwise. I step up to the powerful ram. His curved horns make him appear taller, but I can still see the fur on top of his head.\n\nIt's easy to be an alpha when everyone treats me like one. I let my instincts guide me, but not for my benefit. The situation is awkward enough. It'll be easier if I lead. \n\nLane remains still as I run my hands suggestively over his bulky shoulders. I make it blatantly obvious that I'm admiring his physique. I paw at his muscular chest. \"You're quite the catch, Lane. Brent is lucky to have you.\"\n\nLane clasp his hands over mine. Our eyes meet. His serious expression softens as he gives me a sly smile. \"And I'm exactly what he likes. I'm bigger and stronger than him, and he loves it.\"\n\nBrent's ears dip in embarrassment as he squeaks out, \"Lane!\"\n\nLane turns to his boyfriend. His hooves clack against the wooden floor as he crouches down to his height. Brent doesn't resist as the ram takes his hands in his. \"Brent, we've been together for 5 years now. I think it's time we had a serious talk.' Brent's ears remain glued to his skull, but his expression turns to worry. 'There's no mystery. I like small, skinny guys, and you like them big with big muscles. Physically, we're a perfect match. In the beginning, it was all about sex. You were getting over your breakup with Wayne. And I was making up for years of my parents controlling my life.\"\n\nBrent's ears lift upwards as he realizes his boyfriend is serious. Lane strokes the side of his face, and Brent looks into his eyes. Lane continues. \"But we're more than that now. We love each other. I love you, Brent.\"\n\nThe coyote slams into Lane and almost knocks him over. \"I love you too, Lane!\" he yells.\n\nThe couple cry on each other's shoulders. I begin to feel like a third wheel. My instincts tell me my role here will be more important than any of us realize.\n\nLane rises to his hooves, and he lifts Brent to his paws. Lane turns his attention toward me. \"Alex, neither of us has had sex with anyone else since we first met. We need to know if this is something we want.\"\n\n\"Do you mind if I lead?\"\n\n\"I think it's best that you do,\" Lane says confidently.\n\n\"Brent, would you take his shorts off for me.\"\n\nBrent looks surprised at my request. Lane presents himself to the smallest fur in the room. Grey and brown hands grab the fabric around his waist and yank downwards. The waistband stretches as it's pulled over Lane's muscular legs. He pulls the garment to his knees, and it falls in a heap around his hooves. Brent kicks it out of the way.\n\nLane thrusts his hips forward to give me a good view of what he's sporting between his legs. His sheath seems appropriate for his size; however, his balls appear larger than usual. I don't know if it's because he's a ram or if he has better-than-average genes.\n\n\"I can see why you like him so much,\" I say, which elicits a shy smirk from Brent.\n\nIt's my turn to get hands-on. I squat down to Brent's level. I take a moment to offer him my muzzle. Brent isn't a wolf, but he still understands the significance of rubbing muzzles together. He leans forward and gives me a proper wolf greeting, and I give him the same in kind.\n\nI give him some soft pets, starting on his shoulders and chest. I wrap my hands around his upper arm, and the tips of my claws connect. He's about the same height as Adin and Badir, but he's skinny as a rail compared to the two felines.\n\nMy hands flow toward his hips. Our eyes meet, and he nods his head in silence. I tug his shorts off, and he lifts his paws upwards. I wadded the garment into a ball and tossed it on the table. I'm a wolf. I can't help myself as I lean in and sniff at my friend's crotch. Brent giggles as my nose brushes against his balls and sheath.\n\nI take a step back and stand tall. \"Would you like to do the honors?\" I say as I direct the question toward the small coyote.\n\nBrent looks excited and nervous at the same time. I'm larger and considerably more muscular than Lane. Brent grabs hold of my shorts and gives them a downward tug. My wagging tail gets in the way. His eyes widen as he exposes my sheath and balls. He continues downward. He struggles to get them over the bulges in my legs, but I also remain still, so he has to work to get them off.\n\nBrent is too nervous to do or say anything. I turn my attention to Lane. I keep my arms at my side and subtly tighten my upper body at him. The muscles from my shoulders to my wrist tense even though I'm not flexing. The right side of my chest ripples, and then the left. He figures out what I'm doing and smiles. I step forward and run my hands slightly over his shoulders and chest.\n\nLane smiles at me as he says, \"Brent enjoys my body greatly. I know he likes yours too.\"\n\n\"And what about you, Lane.\"\n\nThe ram smiles at me. \"I like small predators. But that's not why I love him. I wouldn't have cared if he was as large as you; I still would have fallen in love with him.\"\n\nLane hears his boyfriend begin to whimper. He doesn't hesitate as he scoops him up in his arms. I watch as the couple cry on each other's shoulders. I hear a faint \"I love you too\" escape from Brents's lips. I get the sense their relationship needs this.\n\nThey part and wipe tears from the fur around their eyes. I know what comes next. \"Come on, Lane, let's give him a show.\"\n\nLane smiles at me. He joined me at my side, flexed his arms, and struck a pose. I did the same. Brent watched as two large males showed off. His sheath swelled as his cock emerged from it's holder.\n\nNone of us are strangers when it comes to being with another male. Only this is a new experience for all of us. We give Brent a show like none he's ever witnessed before. We pretend we're showing off to one another, but it's all for him. \n\nJust like me, Lane knows when it's time to move on. We begin to pet and caress each other slowly. Our sheaths can't contain our cocks anymore, and the tips emerge. I run my hands up Lane's sides. I lean in and lick his lips.\n\nI've kissed Hue and Theo, so I've experienced the inside of a hoof's mouth. Just like me, Lane has years of experience. Even though this is our first time together, there is no awkwardness between us. Our tongues slid together. I wrap my jaws around his, which catches him off guard, but only for a moment.\n\nI reach down to free my knot. Lane stops to watch my cock rise into the air and harden. I've never seen a rams cock before. I expected it to be like Hue's, but it isn't. It's bright red, like a canine. Even though he's 6 inches shorter than me, his cock is the same length as mine; only I have far more girth than he does. He doesn't have a knot. His is a straight shaft that tappers to a sharp point.\n\nI notice rounded bumps on the outer edges of his cock. He sees me staring and says, \"You're wondering what the rows of bumps are,' I nod my head, and he continues. 'Some of our ancestors were given unnatural features. The bumps run in my family. I'm not a giant like Zack. My elite genes only affect what I have between my legs.\"\n\n\"I wouldn't say that,\" I add.\n\nLane smiles at me. \"I've had my D.N.A. tested. What I have is above average in a few categories. My genitalia is the only thing considered elite.\"\n\n\"Hey, Lane, can we show him what your horns are good for?\" Brent asks.\n\n\"Sure, hun,\" Lane says with a smile.\n\nIt's my turn to enjoy a show. I sit on the floor while the two lovers move to the air mattress. I watch as Brent makes out with someone more than twice his size. Their relationship isn't like one I've seen before. The alpha position shifts from one moment to the next, and they seem to enjoy the give and take. \n\nBrent lubes up Lane's cock. Brent turns towards his partner and grabs hold of his horns. Lane keeps his neck straight as Brent does a pull-up. Lane grabbed hold of his ass and steered him onto the pointed tip of his cock.\n\nBrent might be skinny, but he's strong enough for this. His tiny biceps compress as he pulls himself up and down Lane's cock. Both furs moan as Brent does all the work.\n\nLane moans with pleasure as the coyote hangs from his curved horns. His tone tells me he's getting close. Brent stops and gets to his paws. \"Alex, do you mind if he finishes inside you?\"\n\nI get to my paws. I put my hands on the half-high wooden wall. I lift my tail and say. \"Come on, Lane. Come show me how strong you are.\"\n\nThe ram looks like he's about to pop. His hooves clack against the wooden floor. Strong hands grip my shoulders. Warm summer air blows through the screen as I look into the darkness. Anyone outside can see me from the chest up. They can see my expression as Lane penetrates me. We should turn the light off, but neither of us cares as we're only visible from the chest up.\n\nEven though nobody can see the details, there's no mistaking what's going on. Lane groans as he grips me tight. It's obvious to anyone watching what's happening.\n\nThe bumps on Lane's cock add to the experience, but it's nothing compared to Vance with his dragon cock. Lane was already on the edge; it didn't take long for him to go over. The lean-to shakes as he slams into me with all his strength. He cums for several minutes. He makes as much as I do. Without a knot to keep it in, his cum leaks out of me.\n\nWhen it's over, I get on all fours. Brent and Lane work together like a couple to lick me clean. It's not perfect, but at least my legs aren't soaked anymore. The scent of sex is thick in the air. The smell disappears as a breeze blows through the open walls. Only to return a moment later.\n\nBrent wants to fuck, but I can tell that's not what he really wants. I know what will happen if I go first. Lane collapses on the air mattress. I scoop Brent up and join him. We make out while he watches. This is as much therapy as it is enjoyment. We take turns swapping partners.\n\nI know when to move on to the next act. I lay on the air mattress and lifted my tail. Brent gets behind me. He sniffs at my back door and licks at his boyfriend's leftovers. His cock is 6 inches at most. It reminds me of when I was 16.\n\nBrent slides inside me with ease. He's in a hurry. He thrusts with purpose and knots me. After having my brother's knot inside me, his barely registers. Brent howls as he cums, which surprises me. I hope the neighbors don't notice.\n\nThis is why Brent was in such a hurry. My instincts tell me what he wants. He gets on all fours and lifts his tail. I get on top of him. I surround him to the point he's barely noticeable beneath me.\n\n\"Alex, I can't believe this is happening,\" he says with a whisper.\n\n\"We can't undo the past, but I hope we can still have a future together,\" I say softly in his ear.\n\n\"Me to Alex.\"\n\nThe small coyote moans as I penetrate him. He's tight even though he has sex with Lane on a regular basis. I take my time to loosen him up. I give him a small portion of my strength and knock him over. We laugh as we realize I might be too much for him. Brent gets back up, and I put an arm around him as I thrust.\n\nWe've both wanted this since high school. The past can't be undone. My only regret was not sharing this with him when I was closer to his size. I push my knot against his hole and hold it there. The only way it'll go in is if I hold him. My hands almost encompass his thin hips. I try to make it as quick as possible. I thrust forward as I pulled him backward at the same time.\n\nThe small coyote yelps as I knot him. I let him feel my knot expanding inside him. \"God damn, Alex, your knot is huge!\"\n\n\"You should see my brother's knot.\"\n\nI give Brent a moment to catch his breath. I start again. I hold onto his hips as I thrust into him. I make it last. I cool off, only to begin again. I changed positions a few times. But each time, I did the work. I roll him face down onto the air mattress. Brent shares a few affectionate rubs with his boyfriend. The air mattress flexes as I thrust with purpose. I growl as my balls release. I blast semen into my lifelong friend.\n\nWe're not pups or even teenagers anymore. We have years of experience under our belts. We make up for lost time like the young adults we've grown into. I finished the first round, but I still have more to give him. I roll onto my side and wrap myself around my far smaller friend. Lane rubs Brent's belly, and I can feel his rub on my cock through Brent's belly.\n\nThe three of us snuggle together and enjoy what comes after I knot someone. I rub my muzzle against Brent's. He lifts his chin and gives me his throat. I give him a few licks, and his head falls back onto my bicep, which he uses as a pillow.\n\nUsually, my knot will stay hard for about 20 minutes. Tonight is no exception. I felt it begin to soften, but I didn't want it to end just yet. I grind into him slowly. My shaft hardens again, but my knot doesn't expand beyond its normal size. It's more than enough to keep Brent's hole plugged tight.\n\nI give Brent 10 more minutes. \"Hey, Lane, would you turn the light off.\"\n\nLane smiles as he knows why. \"Sure.\"\n\nThe light goes out. I take a firm grip on Brent and rise to my paws. I hold and carry him the same way my brother used to carry me when he had his knot buried inside me. I fling the flimsy screen door open. \n\nAll the campsites around us are occupied, but I'm not worried about being seen. There's a thin strip of forest that separates us from our neighbors. The canopy above is too thick for any moonlight to penetrate to the ground. My black fur makes me almost invisible in the darkness.\n\nI walk around to the side of the lean-to while holding Brent. The little coyote's paws dangle off the ground. I squat down and return his paws to the grass. I don't say a word as he pulls himself off my cock. It pulls out with a pop loud enough for the neighbors to hear. \n\nMy limp cock falls between my legs. Brent holds his hole closed, turns, and squats down like he's taking a shit. Even in the dim light, I can see his fangs as he smiles up at me. A second later, it sounds like he has diarrhea as he forces my semen from his bowels. I can hear it splashing on the ground between his legs over and over. I may not be as productive as my brother, but I do make quite a mess.\n\n[center]* * *[/center]\n\nI woke up Saturday morning without a care in the world. I'm lying on my side with Brent in my arms. Lane is pressed against my back. We wake together, stretch, and get to our paws and hooves. \n\nI stand and realize they're snickering at me. \"Ahh... what's so funny?\" I chuckle, not knowing what's so amusing.\n\nBrent points at my crotch and snickers. \"Your fur is all matted.\"\n\nI look down and smile as I remember we didn't do the best job cleaning up after ourselves last night.\n\n\"Come on, the campground has some showers we can use.\"\n\nThe sun was coming up, so we had to put our shorts back on. We walked to the far side of the campground. The shower was a crude but functional brick building. It's what you would expect for something only used seasonally. There were brick dividers between each stall, but that was the only privacy it offered. \n\n\"You guys want to wash me?\" I ask with a yawn that shows off my long fangs.\n\nBrent's ears hug his skull. \"Yeah, Alex.\"\n\nWe take turns washing each other. When we were done, we realized we'd forgotten to bring a towel. We rang the water from our fur the best we could.\n\nI turn to leave, and another fur bumps into me as I round a corner. I realize he's the grey wolf I'd seen playing in the street last night. He looks up at me with his jaws hanging open. I give him a friendly smile as I step past him. A moment later, his two brothers come rushing past me, followed by their father.\n\nWe leave the brick building and step into the fresh morning air. I couldn't help but think about the family of wolves as I walked back to the main campsite. What would our lives have been like if our parents had stayed together? Would my brother and I have the relationship we have today? I don't know. All I know is if enduring a horrible childhood was the price we had to pay, then I'd gladly pay it every time.\n\nWe returned to the campsite. The sky is washed with reds and pinks as the sun shines through the trees. The lake is as smooth as glass. My brother, Theo, Hue, and Vance are still asleep in the camper. Adin and Badin took the convertible bed. \n\nI put on a pot of coffee. The smell would wake everyone up except my brother. The three of us grabbed a cup and headed outside to sit on the lawn chairs and stare at the lake. \n\nI catch a glimpse of Simon and Jacob approaching in the distance, followed by Chris and Xander. Xander swoons over Chris. The yellow lab laughs as Xander tries his best to embarrass him. I can take a guess as to what happened last night.\n\nSimon and Jacob follow the scent of coffee into the trailer. I smile as the tiny foxes join us at the shore of the lake. \"So, how did things go last night?\" I ask as I sip my coffee.\n\nXander gives Chris one last embarrassing hug as he finds a lawn chair for himself. Simon points at them as he plainly says, \"Those two fucked each other last night.\"\n\nChris spits out his coffee and sputters as Simon achieves what Xander couldn't. The dog's ears dip in embarrassment. Simon smiles as he rises from his chair. He looks down at a sulking Chris. \"It was a nice night. Chris slept next to me and cuddled with me all night.\"\n\n\"Oh...really,\" I give them a curious look.\n\nSimon turns around and flops down in Chris's lap. Chris hesitates momentarily, then wraps his muscular arms around the tiny silver fox. Simon leans back and gives the yellow lab a friendly nuzzle. \"This doesn't mean I want you to fuck me, Chris.\"\n\nChris snickers as Simon squirms and tries to get comfortable. \"Yeah, I know.\"\n\n\"It just means we're best friends, Chris.\"\n\nTears form around the edges of Chris's eyes as he whimpers softly. I can see it as he realizes his true friends never left him.\n\nXander spreads his arms wide and beckons Jacob to join him. \"Jacob!\"\n\nThe tiny red fox smiles and takes a seat in Xander's lap. Xander gives Jacob a few rubs before they settle down together.\n\nAdin and Badir are the next to join us, followed by Vance and Theo. I assume Hue is keeping my brother company while he continues to doze.\n\nEventually, the two giants join us. Not wanting them to be left out, Badir climbs into my brother's lap, and Adin climbs onto Hue. Both felines rub muzzles against their chest and make a show of petting them.\n\nNever in my life could I have imagined such a perfect morning. The 13 of us gathered around as breakfast was prepared. We had more hands than we needed to do the work. I realized what it takes to feed 13 furs. A few of us don't eat as much as the others, but the giants among us more than makeup for it.\n\nIt took 4 bags of potatoes, 8 dozen eggs, 6 loves of bread, and a mountain of bacon and sausage to feed everyone. My brother and Hue were the primary culprits, but Theo, Vance, and I ate our fair share. Chris and Lane ate as much as our two smaller felines and three canines put together.\n\n[center]* * *[/center]\n\nI felt a sense of peace settle over everyone as one day rolled into the next. It seemed impossible, but it felt like the 13 of us were meant to be together. They mean more to me than any amount of money. However, the lack of money is why it'll never happen. I would give anything to spend the rest of my days living in the campground with everyone. I know it'll never happen as everyone has their own lives to live.\n\nWe spent our days playing and having fun together. Swimming and playing games in the lake were a favorite. We enjoyed our nature hikes together. In the evenings, we enjoyed each other. Simon and Jacob were the only ones who didn't participate, although they did find someone to cuddle with at night.\n\nChris is a horny dog, but it still surprises me how adventurous he's become. He prefers sex with his smaller friends, but he will seek me out when he's feeling brave. I'm always gentle with him whenever we're together. I trust Chris. If he says he's straight, then I believe him. However, I'm beginning to think he might be bisexual after all.\n\nThe middle of the week came. I knew Brent was putting it off. He hadn't been home in 6 years. Seeing us was something he wanted to do. Seeing his family again was not one of them. This was something he and his boyfriend had to do alone. I let them borrow my SUV.\n\nBrent's childhood wasn't the greatest. His problems were different than mine, and my brothers but a horrible childhood is something we have in common. He was affected in a different way. He repressed his feelings his entire life. He never became himself until he was finally free of their control. He may have taken it a bit too far, but I don't blame him for that; I'd probably have done the same in his situation. \n\nI didn't expect it to be a long visit, but to my surprise, they were gone most of the day. His parents don't know he's gay, and I expect that will be enough of a shock. Finding out he has a boyfriend more than twice his size will be another.\n\nBrent and Lane returned right on time for dinner. They joined us at the table even though they'd just eaten. They recanted the visit, although I sensed they avoided most of it. Brent has never had a great relationship with his parents. His parents might love him, but it's conditional. I sense he may never meet their requirements. \n\nAfter the sun went down, Brent and Lane would make the rounds with the group. They even managed to get some pets in with Simon and Jacob, but that was as far as that went. Brent isn't large enough to accommodate Zack or Hue, but Lane is. Brent watched as Hue and, later, Zack gave him their attention. Although Lane wasn't big enough to take my brother's knot.\n\nOut of everyone Brent and Lane had sex with, there was one among us they had missed: his former boyfriend. I'm the alpha of the group. It's my job to mend fences if it's possible.\n\nThe sun had gone down, and the bugs were circling the street light once more. \"Vance, would you come with me.\"\n\nVance turns to me excitedly. It's that time of the day. He expects this to be about sex. \"Sure, Alex.\"\n\nI find Xander chatting with Brent and Lane about art. \"Hey, Xander, do you mind if I steal them from you?\"\n\n\"No, Alex, go right ahead.\"\n\nVance's expression sours as he figures out what I'm doing. Brent doesn't look happy either, although Lane seems relieved. \"Come on, we need to talk.\"\n\nThe three furs follow alongside me in silence as I lead them toward campsite 98. A few streetlights illuminate the paved road. The forest is filled with the flickering light from dozens of campfires.\n\nI led Brent and Lane to their campsite. This situation will require some delicacy. I toss some kindling in the firepit, add a few logs, and start a fire. We find chairs and gather around as the fire roars to life.\n\n\"I don't need to say it. You guys already know I love each of you. And that includes you to Lane. Vance, Brent, I know you two still love each other. I can see it in how you've been avoiding each other. I can't make you guys do anything you don't want to. But I wouldn't be much of a friend if I didn't at least try to help you two get back together.\"\n\nVance is now large enough that he could easily eat Brent if he wanted to. Despite his greater size, Brent is still alpha over Vance. It wasn't so weird 6 years ago, but now it seems almost comical today. Despite his size, Vance is a big softie. I love that about him.\n\nBrent lets out a loud sigh as he rises from his chair. He stands in front of the massive mountain lion. \"Vance, can I join you?\"\n\nVance opens his arms welcomingly. \"Sure, Brent.\"\n\nVance welcomes the small coyote into his lap. Brent nuzzles his old boyfriend affectionately. Fur rubs against fur as he falls against his bare chest. They enjoy the moment together as the past bubbles to the surface. \"Vance, I'm sorry for how I broke up with you. I thought I was doing the right thing, but I was wrong. It was cruel. You're my friend. I should have been a better friend to you. I didn't mean to hurt you. Can you ever forgive me?\"\n\nFlames grow taller and illuminate the pair. Massive arms fold around Brent. Except for his head, he almost disappears from view.\n\nIt's hard to tell in the flickering light, but I can hear it in his voice. Vance is crying softly. The big cat nods his head. \"Brent, it wasn't your fault. I know it never would have worked out between us. I would have been fine if we had broken up, but it felt like I had lost you for good. I don't care if we can't have sex. I just missed my friend.\"\n\nBrent begins to cry against his chest, and Vance does the same. \"I'm sorry for hurting you, Vance. I'm sorry for being a horrible friend.\"\n\nVance nuzzles Brent slowly. \"Yes, Brent, I forgive you. I know we can't have that kind of relationship. I just want my friend back. That's all I want. I want you back.\"\n\n\"Me to Vance,\" Brent says with a soft whimper. \n\nMy two friends hold each other until Lane interrupts them. Lane kneels to their level. \"Come on, you two, I think there's something we need to do.\"\n\nThey look up at the huge ram and realize what he's implying. \"Are you sure, Lane?\" Brent asks.\n\nI see Lane smile in the flickering light. \"Of course, Brent. There's no reason we can't all be friends, and there's no reason we can't be friends with benefits.\"\n\nLane turns his attention to me. \"Do you want to join us, Alex?\"\n\n\"You know I want to, but I think you guys need this time together. You can tell everyone about it in the morning.\"\n\nI smile, and my long fangs show in the light from the fire. I rise from my chair. My tail is free to wag; it shows my happiness as I disappear into the night.\n\n[center]* * *[/center]\n\nBrent, Lane, and Vance were late to breakfast the following morning. When they did show up, they were greeted by friendly smiles. The three furs couldn't keep their hands off one another. It was obvious they were making up for lost time. Unfortunately, Brent and Lane leave to return home tomorrow.\n\nThursday was the last day we'd all be together. There was enough time tomorrow for us to have breakfast with Brent and Lane before they had to catch their flight.\n\nI could see it in their body language. Vance and Brent were trying to cram 6 years of lost time into one day. Vance was trying to develop a friendship with Lane at the same time. They spent the day together, just the three of them. They went on a long walk together. Being alone would give them a chance to heal old wounds and make up for lost time.\n\nVance spent the night with Brent and Lane. I would have loved to spend the night with them, but they need time together.\n\nChris invited me to join him in the straight-fur lean-to. We played cards with Simon and Jacob. I love Simon and Jacob, but they aren't interested in our after-dark activities, but that doesn't mean we aren't their friends.\n\nA few games of cards turned into a few games of cribbage. Simon wins the game and blurts out, \"If you guys want to fuck go ahead. We don't mind.\"\n\nSimon's bluntness stuns me, and then I notice the two foxes are giggling. Chris's ears dip in embarrassment. I figured he would be used to it by now. \"What do you say, Chris?\"\n\nChris looks at me shyly, \"Sure, Alex,\" he says softly.\n\nWe rise from our chairs with wagging tails, and Simon adds, \"Just one thing before you two wander off.' We stop and give him our attention. 'Will you come back to keep us warm?\"\n\nI smile at him. \"Sure, Simon.\"\n\n\"Oh, when you're done, would you mind washing yourselves off first? We have to go home tomorrow, and we don't want to reak of cum,\" says Jacob.\n\nI chuckle. \"Sure.\"\n\n[center]* * *[/center]\n\nWatching Brent and Lane board the plane was an emotional moment for everyone. None of us wanted to see them leave, and they didn't want to leave us. They exchanged long, teary-eyed hugs with everyone. When it was Vance's turn, he could barely let them go.\n\nThe rest of the guys returned to the campground to spend the weekend with us. We start our adventure Monday morning.\n\nTo my surprise, Simon invited Zack to spend the night in their lean-to. There was a brief intermission when he and Chris wandered off to find someone to have sex with. But they returned to cuddle after they had their fun.\n\nLike always, the following morning, Zack was late for breakfast. I spied the giant wolf approaching the main campsite and couldn't stop laughing. Simon was riding on one of his shoulders, and Jacob was on the other. Chris was cradled in his arms and didn't look too happy about it.\n\nSunday morning came. We had a big breakfast. We could feel it in the air. It was coming to an end. It was time for everyone to return home.\n\nI lifted Simon off his paws. I didn't want to let him go. I nuzzled him with my muzzle, and to my surprise, he returned the goodbye rub. \"We're not going away forever. We'll return regularly.\"\n\n\"I know. It's just I don't like goodbyes,\" Simons says as he pouts.\n\n\"Me neither,\" I say as I return his paws to the grass.\n\nI give Jacob the same goodbye. It's Chris's turn. I lean into him, put my hand behind his head, and kiss him. The labrador is stunned. I give him a few playful licks to snap him out of it. He hugs me and kisses me back. \"You finally starting to get over your phobia of making out with a guy in public?\"\n\nChris smiles and kisses me again. His tail begins to wag. \"Yeah, but it depends upon the guy.\"\n\nIt's Theo's turn. He reaches around and squeezes my ass as we makeout for all to see. A bulge grows in his shorts, but it'll be Hue's job to take care of that when they get home.\n\nTheo hands me over to Hue. The giant hoof lifts my paws off the ground. He gets under my legs and cradles me in his arms. Huge hoof lips wrap around mine as we give each other a deep-throated goodbye.\n\nIt was a long and emotional goodbye. Tires crunched on the gravel as one vehicle after another left. It was just the six of us. Myself and my brother. Vance and Xander, along with Adin and Badir. We leave in the morning. We went about cleaning and getting everything ready to depart tomorrow morning.\n\nNone of us felt like cooking. We went to the snack shack by the entrance to the campground and had dinner. My brother can eat almost as much as the 5 of us put together. Feeding him is expensive, but none of us care about the cost. Zack can stuff an entire cheeseburger in his mouth. The dog running the counter was shocked to watch 12 of them disappear down his throat, along with 4 orders of large fries.\n\nThere wasn't much beer left, but we decided to finish it off. We cluster around the campfire. Xander purrs in my lap. Adin snuggles with Vance, and Zack cradles Badir in his arms as though he's a kitten.\n\nI run my hand up Xander's cute belly and feel his hard abs. I run my fingertips along his ribs, and he giggles. I lift against his bulging pec as I lean forward and nuzzle him with my muzzle. I give him an affectionate squeeze as I say softly, \"God damn, Xander, you've grown so much, and your muscles have gotten so big.\"\n\n\"Yeah, I never would have gotten this big if it weren't for you guys. You guys made it so much fun. And I really like that I'm bigger and stronger than Badir,\" Xander adds with a chuckle.\n\n\"Hey,' Badir yells in protest. 'I like it too. And I've enjoyed watching my brother transform into a hansom big cat,\" he chuckles.\n\n\"We all have,' I add as I squeeze him affectionately. 'We all love you, Xander.\"\n\nXander twists around and rubs his muzzle against my chest. \"I know, and I love you guys too.' Xander is quiet for a moment as he pouts against my chest. 'Sorry,' he says with a whimper. 'I just never imagined I could be this happy.\"\n\nI pet Xander as we enjoyed the peace and tranquility of nature and each other's company. The sun begins to set. It's still light out, but I don't care. I rose from the chair, set Xander on his paws, and pulled my shorts off. Everyone stares at me in shock. I doubt anyone will notice me, but there's little anyone can do about it as we leave tomorrow.\n\nI approached my brother, extended my hand, and invited him to join me. Adin joins his husband, and Xander flops down on his older brother. The felines don't hold back as they begin to kiss each other.\n\nZack yanks his shorts off and follows my wagging tail into the lake. We wade out until our sheaths are concealed beneath the waves. \n\nBadir yells at us. \"You guys forgetting something?\" he says as he pulls his arm back and throws something in our direction.\n\nSomething lands in front of me with a splash. I realize it's a bottle of lube. \"Thanks, Badir,\" I say as I fetch it.\n\nDarkness settles upon us. An owl hoots in the distance. Campfires dote the shoreline in the distance. I'll miss the smell of burning wood. We swim out toward the undeveloped western side of the lake, just far enough to have some privacy.\n\nI get my arms around my brother's neck. I lean into him and say, \"Zack, I love you so much.\"\n\nZack nuzzles me and says, \"I love you too, Alex.\"\n\nWe nuzzle each other in a way that's unique between wolves. \"God damn, Bro, you're so fucking big. I can't believe you're finally fully grown.\"\n\nZack snickers. \"Yeah, me either. I thought I'd never stop growing.\"\n\n\"I always knew my little brother would turn out to be a giant. I can't believe you outgrew Hue by 6 inches. It's almost unheard of for a wolf to reach 8 and a half feet tall.\"\n\nZack pulls me onto his massive chest. \"And don't forget I'm 1,440 pounds of muscle.\"\n\n\"Trust me, there's no way I can forget about that. Just like there's no way I can forget how big you're cock is.\"\n\nZack giggles like he's a pup again. \"Yeah, 18 inches is almost too big. But I know how much you like it.\" \n\nI chuckle as he reminds me of when we were teenagers. I rub my muzzle against his overly muscled chest. \"I'm so glad you turned out to be a giant Zack. You're so big. Your body is everything I want in a mate.\"\n\n\"Thanks, Alex, and I'm glad you pushed yourself to become a heavyweight. I always wanted a strong mate, and I like your big muscles too.\"\n\nI chuckle as the sense of deja vu comes over me. \"Thanks, little Bro. Your body is amazing, but you know why I love you so much, don't you?\"\n\nHis massive head nods in the darkness. I catch a glint of moonlight in his golden eyes. \"Yeah, Alex, I know. I know everything that goes through your head. I wouldn't be much of a mate if I didn't. You're the reason why my body is a work of art. I did it for you. It's the same reason why you're so muscular. You did it for me.\"\n\n\"You know, I just realized something,\" I say idly.\n\n\"Oh, what's that?\"\n\n\"I finally achieved the goal I set out for over 6 years ago.' Zack's ears dip in confusion. 'We can finally be together every minute of the day. We'll never be separated ever again.\"\n\nZack squeezes me hard. \"Ahh... Zack, you're crushing me!\"\n\nThe giant wolf softens his grip. \"Oh, sorry, Alex.\"\n\nI nuzzle him to let him know everything is okay. \"It's alright. You're still one big, strong pup, aren't you.\"\n\n\"Yeah, Alex, but I'm all grown up now.\"\n\n\"I know. I almost can't believe that we're adults. It feels like that blizzard happened yesterday. Only we aren't as goofy as we were when we first came out to each other.\"\n\n\"No, that's for sure. Alex, you're the best brother in the world. I know you don't have genes like me, but you're still incredibly big and strong for a wolf. On top of that, you're a genius. I can't believe, after all these years, you're still taking care of me.\"\n\n\"I'll always take care of you, little bro,' I say with a pause. 'You know it's been almost a week since we had sex.\"\n\n\"Yeah, I think this has been the longest we've ever gone,\" Zack adds.\n\n\"I love our friends. I know this was a special occasion, but I need you more than once a week.\"\n\n\"Me to Alex.\"\n\nI release my grip on my brother's neck. He takes the hint and lets me go. I begin to swim towards the dark side of the lake. \"You coming, little bro?\"\n\nI hear splashing as Zack chases after me. I swim while Zack plows through the water like a tank. I come ashore. Water pours from my sodden fur like a wet dog. Moonlight reflects off my brother's wet fur as his huge paws crunch on the rocky ground. He reaches for me, but I leap back at the last second. I back out of reach. I'm a wolf. Despite his black fur, I can see the confused look on his face in the moonlight.\n\nThe leaves rustle as a breeze blows across the lake. I twirl around and taunt him with a wag of my tail. My brother chuckles as I tease him. He takes a step closer, and I step out of reach. He growls at me. My paws sink into the rocky shore as I take off into the night.\n\nZack knows when I want to have some fun. My brother chases me like a wolf pursuing prey. I leap over boulders like it's an obstacle course. My brother might be bigger and stronger than me, but I'm faster; I have no trouble staying ahead of him.\n\nI dart around a massive boulder and hide behind it. There's a crash above my head. I look up just in time to watch the giant naked beast leap to the ground. His paws come down with a loud crunching of stone again stone. I clench my jaws and try not to laugh as Zack realizes he lost sight of his prey. He takes off in the most obvious direction.\n\nZack sprints to catch up but quickly realizes I'm nowhere to be seen. I watch with amusement as he spins in circles, looking for me. His ears swivel as he hears me trying to quell my laughter.\n\nZack is breathing hard as he walks up to me. \"Chasing you is fun,\" Zack says between huffs.\n\n\"You caught me,' I add as I lean back seductively against the boulder. 'Now that you caught your prey, what will you do with me?\"\n\nZack reaches around, grabs hold of my butt, and lifts me to his height. I know what he wants. I toss the bottle of lube to the ground and wrap my arms around his thick neck as our jaws clamp together. He forces his tongue inside my mouth. Our tongues twist together. I lick inside his mouth. His tongue is so big it fills my mouth. His head twists and our jaws lock together. I breathe through my nose as he rams his massive tongue down my throat.\n\nZack pulls his tongue out of my throat and leans back. I lick submissively at his lips. \"I know you want me to fuck you first, but I need to feel you inside me, Alex.\"\n\nI nod in the darkness. \"I know,' I say as I run my claws playfully through the fur on his head. 'You what else I like about my fully grown little brother?\"\n\nZack chuckles as his hands slide over my hips. \"No, what?\"\n\n\"Your voice.\"\n\n\"My voice?\" he says, amused.\n\n\"Yeah, I love it. It's so deep and masculine. It makes you sound so powerful. It suits you.\"\n\nZack chuckles. \"Well, that's because I am big and powerful,\" he says as he presses his sheath against mine.\n\nMy cock expands inside my sheath. The tip pushes into the warm summer air. I drop to my knees. I press my nose against my brother's balls and inhale slowly. \"And Xander was right about cutting back on the bathing. I can't get enough of your scent.\"\n\n\"We don't need to bathe as long as we don't get cum in our fur. And even if we do, we can still skip the shampoo. So how about we stop?\" Zack asks me.\n\n\"You know what? That sounds like a great idea. I am a wolf, after all. And you know how much your scent turns me on.' I stop for a moment and chuckle to myself in thought. 'You know Zack, you make me so happy.\"\n\n\"Oh?\"\n\n\"I wake up next to the best little brother in the world every morning. Your body is perfect, but it's who you are as a wolf that I'm in love with.\"\n\nThere's a deep rumble as the colossal beast chuckles. \"We are perfect for each other, aren't we? Now, how about I give you my tail.\"\n\nI smile in the darkness as my enormous brother turns and lifts his tail at me.\n\n[center]* * *[/center]\n\nI woke early Monday morning as the sun was coming up. Like it or not, our vacation was over, and it was back to work. Fortunately, we can work while we're traveling. I plan to take the first hour of driving, but someone else will need to take over as I have a career to look after.\n\nLast night, my brother and I made love under the moonlight. It was romantic. We took it slow to make up for the week-long absence. Making love to him isn't like it was when we were teenagers. He's far larger than he was back then. He's a true giant. He's now over three times my size. He's so big he can almost wrap his jaws around my head.\n\nI never expected I'd keep up with my brother. I never expected I'd grow to be 7 feet tall and 464 pounds, but I have. If I were a few inches shorter, then there's no way I'd be able to take his knot. Other than my heavy build, I'm average for a wolf. I have a 12-inch cock which is the same size my brother had when he was 14 years old.\n\nI'm big enough to make my brother moan. However, I'm not big enough to make him blow his load. Hue and Vance are the only ones in our group who can reach deep enough to make him cum. Zack's cock is a staggering 18 inches. A penis of that size is almost unheard of on a wolf. Hue has him beat by 2 inches, but that's because he's a hoof. Hue has greater length, but my brother has a far greater girth. His knot is nearly the size of a bowling ball when fully engorged. \n\nWe let Zack sleep while the rest of us squared away the last few items and hooked up the trailer. Xander joined me in the passenger seat to keep me company. I pulled out of the campsite. I rolled the window down to enjoy one last sniff of the campground. With the sun on our backs, I turned right onto the main road and headed west.","writing_bbcode_parsed":"The Year 5000: Chapter 16: A New Beginning
By
Anthur
My sophomore year at university was quickly coming to an end. The big event was Zack, Vance, and Jacob were finally graduating from high school. All three furs were at the top of their class, but none earned the spot of class valedictorian. I recorded the event.
I knew my brother was the largest fur at school. He'd told me as much. I had no reason to doubt him. Zack had grown into a giant of a wolf, and he was still growing. He towers above even the tallest hoof. His heavyweight build shows through his graduation gown. He takes his diploma from the principal. The shot fennec fox barely reaches to the middle of his belly. As much as Zack eats, he could easily make a meal of the smaller canine.
I wasn't looking for her, but I was certain our mother wouldn't show up. She barely stayed for my graduation, and when she was there, she was on her phone. I saw no sign of her, and as far as I was concerned, she didn't deserve to be there.
The party that ensued was a weekend event. I rented a campsite at Long Lake. It was the same lake I'd taken Zack to for his 18th birthday the year before. Everyone was there except for Brent. He was spending the summer with his boyfriend again. Jacobs's parents even attended.
There were 15 furs in attendance. The day started with everyone playing in the lake. The parents talked while they sat back and enjoyed a few drinks. We stopped for lunch and dried off with a walk down one of the surrounding nature trails. The cookout that ensued rounded out the day.
The parents left shortly before sundown. Simon, Jacob, and Chris stayed but didn't participate in the sex that followed, although they did cuddle with us afterward.
* * *
After another year of sitting on my ass and filling my brain with new knowledge, I was looking forward to putting my muscles to work. Our summer job was no less exhausting than it had been the year before. But I was with my brothers, which made it enjoyable.
Hue and Theo kept to their word of not working on the weekends. We spent most of our free time at their place. Their new house was just as isolated as our old one. We had no qualms about having an orgy in the backyard. The only ones who'd see us were the local wildlife.
* * *
I was excited for my junior year. It felt like a repeat of high school, as Zack would now be going to school with me. I'd get to see almost all of my friends together in one place. I was excited to see Simon and Jacob on a regular basis. I understand we have our lives to live, and nothing lasts forever, but I didn't like going weeks or months without seeing them.
Every morning, the six of us would pile into the SUV. I'd drop Xander off at the high school. I'm two grades ahead of Zack and Vance, which leaves me feeling left out. I want to be in class with them but know I can't.
Zack and Vance shared a few classes with Simon and Jacob. The four furs would sit and keep each other company in class. It would go a long way to staving off the separation anxiety they both experience.
The seven of us would go to lunch together every day. I looked forward to it. It felt so wonderful to see them every day. Although I missed not having Xander and Chris with us.
May arrived, and with it came mine and my brother's birthday. I turned 21, and my brother turned 19. We celebrated our birthdays together on May 2nd. Everyone except for Brent was there. The party was something you'd do for a pup, complete with candles and presents wrapped in brightly colored paper. It was the first time in our lives that anyone celebrated our existence. It was a day to be happy. I tried my hardest, but I couldn't hold back my tears of joy. I let everyone know what they mean to me.
A few days later, we got the traditional gift cards from our father. I didn't expect to receive one ever again. I figured our mother would keep them for herself. The envelope had our old address on it, but it also had a forward stamp on it as well. I had completely forgotten our mail was being forwarded to our new address.
* * *
My junior year came to an end. Along with it came the end of Chris's Guards training. He's a full-fledged member with all the perks that come with it.
I was surprised to find out Chris had made up with his parents. He turned himself around. He's not the same fur he was three years ago. Chris proved himself, and his parents finally saw that. I know he didn't want to, but he begrudgingly agreed to move back into his old room.
Chris's training was complete, but now he begins his on-the-job training. Unlike the weekend warriors, his primary responsibility is law enforcement. His goal is to become an investigator. He plans to take night classes until he reaches his goal.
We had a quiet weekend before we started our summer job again. We saw Chris throughout the year, but this summer, he joined us to work for Hue. Xander had turned 15 and was old enough to work with his parent's permission, which they, of course, granted.
Hue offered jobs to Simon and Jacob. Neither fox was well suited for strenuous physical labor. Both foxes were tasked with tending to customers.
Adin and Badir had spent time in the gym and put on some muscle over the previous year. Both felines were surprised at the changes as they slowly transitioned into muscly twinks. They were strong enough to help with the physical labor but also backed up Simon and Jacob when needed.
Hue has 11 furs working for him, including myself. He renamed the company T & H Arborist. Xander designed the new company logo. We all received new T-shirts. The base tan color was kept the same, except the logo was changed.
Nine furs was far too much for the jobs we were doing. We broke into two teams. Hue and Theo headed up the first team, while Zack and I headed up the second.
* * *
We started to run out of jobs by the end of summer. I earned more than I did the previous year, but only by a few thousand credits. I have close to $170,000 in my account.
A few times, I contemplated dropping out of school and going to work for Hue. As much as I enjoyed working with him and my brothers, I know it's not what everyone wants. It's okay for a summer job, but it's not something everyone wants to do all year long.
I pulled into the parking lot at Sebasticook as a senior. It was only the first day, but I felt the finality of it. When I was living with our mother, all I wanted was for time to move faster. But now that I'm enjoying life, the months pass by, and I don't know where the time went.
* * *
I only have a few more months before I graduate. I attended a career expo with Adin and Badir last week. We've received over a dozen offers already. There's no way any of us wants to be separated from the pack. Working from home was an unnegotiable requirement. That eliminated about half of the potential employers right off the bat.
It didn't matter too much if the three of us worked for the same employer, but it would make things much more interesting. I spent the next few weeks doing my due diligence. The online info was a good start, but I can't base such an important decision on rumors. My professors were my greatest source of unbiased information. They pointed me towards a few former students who were working for the companies I was interested in.
I talked to a few current employees to get some firsthand opinions. In the end, I settled on Somner Systems. They're a smaller tech company specializing in alternating the use of old human-made programs. Most of their work is precisely what I had gone to school for, and it shouldn't be much of a challenge for me.
Their headquarters is in Toronto. The city retained its name through the ages. History isn't my strong suit. I don't remember what country it was a part of, only that it hasn't existed for thousands of years.
Given the nature of the work, an online interview was acceptable. I logged onto the call and was surprised to find four furs staring back at me on split screens. All four were of the smaller variety. Two were domestic cats, the third a coyote, and the fourth was a skinny shepherd.
The feline with blue/grey fur spoke first. I assumed he was the boss. I felt outnumbered, but I didn't feel nervous. I wore a grey dress shirt. It hides some of my build but not all of it. I could see the astonished looks come across their faces as they realized I was most likely larger than three of them put together.
They were brief with the pleasantries. I thought my size might impact their opinions, but I quickly realized there was only one thing they were interested in, and my size wasn't one of them. They went over my education history. They seemed taken aback when they realized the giant wolf in front of them was also a high school valedictorian and top of his class at university.
The interview turned to technical info. It felt like a test. Fortunately, I'm good at those. They took turns asking me questions about problems only a grad in the field would know. I got a feeling the coyote didn't like me. His questions weren't difficult, but they were asked in a way that was designed to trip me up. At first, I thought it was an interview strategy, but his frustrated expression said otherwise.
I answered the coyote's questions, and he grew increasingly flustered. He began to argue with me, which was a mistake. At first, I was nice, but I decided he needed to be put in his place. I began to correct him, which sent his ears flipping like mad. I told him he was wrong and proved it while his colleagues watched. Laughter erupted from the other screens as I demonstrated my knowledge and understanding was far greater than his.
Eventually, the blue feline had enough and put him on mute. The coyote disappeared from the screen in an angry huff. The questions from the remaining three were far friendlier.
The interview concluded. Adin and Badir had their interviews the following day. A week later, all three of us got job offers. The starting salary was $145,000 per year. The pay seemed incredible compared to the 39k my mother made, but that didn't include the money she received in support.
I could easily make more than $145,000 per year working for Hue. But as I'm constantly reminded of, money isn't everything. I went to school for a reason. I like putting my muscles to work, but I also like using the one between my ears. I plan to help Hue and Theo when I can, but I need a balance, and so do my brothers. None of them, not even Adin and Badir, are afraid to work, but we didn't go to school to cut down trees.
* * *
The big day came. I wasn't the valedictorian this time, but I was third in my class. I was beaten out by a domestic cat and a border collie. I could have come in first place, but my ego didn't demand it. Spending time with my friends was more important to me than some arbitrary status symbol.
The class valedictorian of 5004 was a ginger tabby named Max. I liked him; we shared a lot of the same classes. We weren't friends, but we were friendly with each other.
Max stood before the podium to give his graduation speech. Most of the highly intelligent furs are of the smaller variety. He had to stand on a footstool to reach the mic.
His speech was good, but it lacked creativity and any sort of inspirational message. There was a brief round of applause, but it felt forced, as though the audience was only doing it to be polite.
Diplomas were handed out in alphabetical order. I had a long wait before they reached Zarkowski.
The party that ensued was calm and peaceful. We celebrated at our new home. Everyone I know was there. There was no movie this time, but we did play a few friendly yard games.
The adults left after the sun went down. That was when we started the next round of fun.
* * *
I start my career in a week. For once in my life, I took a week off to enjoy myself. Except for Hue and Theo, my friends did the same. Adin, Badir, and I won't be able to help them much during the summer now that we have jobs of our own.
The company laptops came in the mail a few days later. We set up an office in the basement for the three of us. We added some backdrops to make it appear professional, as we'd have constant conference calls.
I checked the new laptop on Saturday morning to find my first assignment. I had no intention of getting started early. This was the last reprieve I'd have for a long time.
I got up early Monday morning. Technically, I can make my own schedule, but I get up with everyone else. My brother is 20 years old now, and I still have to get him out of bed.
I'm officially a fully grown wolf. I haven't gained any height in the last 6 months, and my ability to build muscle has dropped off dramatically. I'm a late bloomer. I never expected to become so large, but I'm grateful I have. I'm seven feet tall and 464 pounds. I didn't want to become a heavyweight, but now that I have, I love it. Not only that, but my brothers love it as well.
I don't have the double-strength muscle like my brother, but I'm more than powerful enough to tear the average fur to pieces. Theo has me beat by a few inches, but I have more muscle than he does. Hue is taller than me by a foot. My eyes are now level with the center of his chest. The good thing about becoming so large is I'm now big enough to take all 20 inches of his giant horse cock.
If someone were to tell me I'd grow up to have a 12-inch cock I wouldn't have believed him. My cock looks almost the same as my brother's did when he was 14 years old. The only difference is my adult penis is a darker shade of red, and my girth is greater. Most wolves are around 7 feet tall. I'm perfectly average for a wolf, although my heavy build sets me apart from the average lupin.
I figured Zack's growth would have begun to slow by now; only the opposite has turned out to be true. As a pup, he grew like a weed. Back then, he gained around 5 pounds per month, but now he's gaining closer to 20. His growth is off the chart. He's nose to nose with Hue, and his growth shows no sign of slowing.
My little brother had surpassed a thousand pounds about a month ago. He's been officially twice my size for the last 6 months, and I love it. Best of all, his cock has grown with the rest of his body. The last time I measured it, the meat between his legs was a staggering 16 inches.
Vance is still a growing mountain lion. He's seven and a half feet tall and about 750 pounds. He'll never be as big as Zack, but his growth is keeping pace.
Unlike Adin and Badir, Vance's little brother isn't so little anymore. Xander's growth is finally starting to accelerate. Unlike his massive older brother, Xander isn't shy. We all love that about both of them. Xander is as dedicated to working out as I was at his age. He constantly tells us that we're his source of inspiration and that he wants to be big and strong, just like his older brother.
Xander is now taller and far stronger than Adin and Badir. His continuing growth is a source of entertainment for all three of them. The three of them play games with each other like I used to with Zack. Xander isn't shy about asserting himself over his smaller brothers. Adin and Badir aren't the only ones who enjoy stroking his ego.
* * *
My first week of work was a strange but pleasant experience for me. Adin and Badir felt the same way. I kissed Zack goodbye every morning as he took Vance and Xander to school. Adin and Badir would exchange goodbye rubs with their two mountain lion brothers. The first day, I hugged Rodger and lifted him off his paws. I made no effort to hide my emotions as I whimpered on his shoulder. I gave Silvia the same treatment, although I was gentler with her.
The basement office helped make it feel like I was at work. The work felt like a continuation of university. The three of us did our work in our boxers and nothing else. Occasionally, we'd swap out to a dress shirt when we needed to make a video call.
At the end of the day, we'd head to the gym and join everyone else. Sometimes, Hue and Theo would join us. Sometimes, the two hoofs would spend the night. We had to get an air mattress. The spare bed is no longer big enough for myself and our 3 smaller felines. I usually let them cuddle on my chest before we split up between the air mattress and the spare bed. It didn't matter who I spent the night with. I'd always wrap myself around him and protect him in my sleep.
* * *
I found myself falling into another routine as summer gave way to fall. Only this time, it was a routine I immensely enjoyed. I was with Adin and Badir all day. We kept each other company as we did when we were in class.
The trees shed their brightly colored leaves. The landscape became dull. It wasn't long before the land turned white with snow.
5004 came to an end. It was the first time I celebrated New Year's. I only celebrated it because I had people to celebrate with.
Winter was just as fierce as it was the year before. We took it upon ourselves to clear the driveway as we worked from home. Adin and his husband took turns with the snowblower, and I did all the shoveling.
Before I knew it, the snow had begun to melt, and the school year had come to an end. My brother had finished his junior year at university. Simon had a late start, but he graduated this year.
We all attended Simons's graduation. The party was held at his house. His parents aren't bad people; they're just overwhelmed by life. But they managed to be proper parents and give their son a proper party. I hadn't been to his house in over a year. His parents were shocked to find their tiny 5-foot-tall son was friends with giants.
As planned, Simon applied to Global Parts Manufacturer as a maintenance technician. It also happened to be the same company my mother works for. The only difference is he'll be working the day shift, and there's no chance he'd accidentally run into her.
I know Simon was eager to experience the world for himself. But for now, he would continue to live at home and save his money.
* * *
Adin, Badir, and I weren't able to help Hue and Theo that much during the summer. Unlike the rest of my brothers, we didn't get a summer break. Even Simon has a job now.
The rest of my brothers were more than enough help. Jacob took care of customer issues.
Summer quickly came to an end, and they began their senior year of university. I've lived in the same house with my brothers for over 3 years now. We know everything there is to know about each other. A six-way relationship should be too difficult to manage, but none of us can get enough of one another. We love each other to death. We're more than just a family; we're a pack.
Our scholars often debate the significance of being created by another species. The society we've created for ourselves is nothing like the one that existed before us. We have some petty crimes, but the traits that rot a society were intentionally excluded from our DNA.
I like being a wolf. I've never met a human, but I'm larger and more powerful than any human who has ever lived. On top of that, I'm smarter than 99% of the humans who existed before the collapse. There's no way nature could produce a creature like me, let alone someone like my brother. Out of all the gifts we've received as a people, there's one I value above all others. It's not our physical strength or intellect; it's our ability to form deep bonds that last a lifetime. Not every fur possesses such qualities. My mother is a perfect example of that.
Some furs were made to perform menial tasks. I suspect my mother is a mix of a worker and a pleasure model. It would explain her lack of drive and her overactive need for sex. I suspect the need for sex is one thing I inherited from her, but I've also never met my father, so I can't say for certain.
Not every fur can form the kind of relationship that I share with my packmates. It's the one thing I value about being a fur above all. Our need for each other is constant and consuming. I can't stand being away from them for more than a few hours.
I know I have some time, but I always have a plan. I'd like nothing more than to continue living with Rodger and Silvia, but we need to make lives for ourselves. Vance's parents love us, and we love them, but we can't live with them forever.
I thought about it throughout the winter. I formed a plan and did the math. I might be the alpha of our pack, but that means I put their interest above my own. 5005 will come to an end in a few weeks. After that, we have 5 months before everyone graduates.
I called for a family meeting. I asked Rodger and Silvia to join us. For once, I managed to put a shirt on. Everyone settles in the living room. I stand in front of the group. All eyes are turned toward me. It's not often I'm this serious.
"I know you guys have never said it out loud, but I know you've elected me to be your alpha.' I pause as everyone looks at each other and wakes up to the reality of what I just said. I wait as they quietly agree with me. 'I love each and every one of you more than anything in the world. You're the only thing that matters to me. I would die for any one of you. An alpha takes care of his pack, and that's what I want to do."
The room gets quiet. "I want us to get a house together."
There's an awkward pause. A second later, I'm tackled to the floor. My half-ton brother wraps his arms around me. Everyone else piles on top of us. I don't resist as I'm smothered with affection.
The room grows loud with purrs. I return everyones nuzzles as fast as I can. The purs grow quiet, and everyone slowly comes to their senses. Zack releases his grip on me, and I sit up. "Alright, everyone, back to your seats. We have more to discuss."
"Yes, alpha," my brother says with a playful snicker.
I rise to my paws. I have a feeling everyone will mess with me later, but I'm looking forward to it.
I resume my speech. "I don't want us to buy a house. I want us to build one.' I pause as everyone grows even more excited. Fortunately, this time, everyone restrained themselves. 'The only problem is I don't know where we should live. I'd like for us to spend a few years exploring the country to determine where we want to live. That said, I'd like to get one of those giant 5th-wheel campers."
I knew it was coming before he did. Xander means too much to me. I could never leave him alone. I walk up and kneel in front of him. "None of us can be without you, Xander. I want you to come with us."
He looks worried, and I know why. He graduates from high school this year. He feels he should attend college like his brother and the rest of us.
I reach up and caress the side of Xander's face. He leans into my touch and looks like he might cry. "I know you think you should go to college. And if that's your decision, then we'll wait for you. But I want you to know everything we have is yours. You'll never need to pay bills or want for anything. You're more important to us than money. You're a brother to us. We want you, Xander, and we want you to be with us for the rest of our lives."
Xander couldn't hold back any longer. He wraps his arms around my neck and begins to cry. I hugged him tight and stroked his head to comfort him. His cries turn to whimpers, and our eyes meet. "I want you to be happy. You're more important to me than money. You're an amazing artist, Xander, the best I've ever seen. I want art to be your career. I've seen what you can do. I doubt there's anything a school could teach you."
Xander wipes away tears and looks up at me. "So what would I do?"
"You'd travel with us while we explore and figure out where we want to build our home. It'll be your home, too. We need you with us. Your opinion matters to us. You can start a career of your own doing what you love."
"I'd like that, Alex."
* * *
The sex that followed was something I'd never done before and something I'll never forget. We went to the gym to enjoy one of the private showers. All five of my brothers fucked me that night, one after the other. I had so much cum leaking out of me it was ridiculous.
I've never had so much sex before at one time. My four felines went first. Their bards drove me crazy. As soon as one finished, the next climbed on my back and penetrated me with all the strength he had.
None of them would touch my cock, but it didn't stop cum from leaking out of me. Zack went last. My massive beast of a brother got inside me and filled me so full I thought I was going to pop. Every orgasm, my belly would swell a bit more and a little bit more.
Zack hit me so hard I orgasmed with him. When it was over I layed there while they licked me clean.
Nobody objected to my plan. The conversation eventually evolved into a matter that many couples avoid, and that was merging our finances. We trust each other with our lives. We share everything, even toothbrushes. They trusted me to set things up.
Everyone insisted on splitting the cost of the camper. I knew better than to argue. I may have changed a lot in the last 4 years, but I'm still cheap when it matters. I had no interest in wasting our money on a new one. Hell, I didn't even want to buy a used one, but it was still a better option than renting one.
* * *
Nobody buys a camper in the middle of winter. It was a perfect time as used ones were practically being given away. I went with the largest one I could find. A new one cost around 100k, but we ended up getting a used one for $50,000 credits. Each of us contributed a little over 8k.
We cleared away the snow from alongside the garage. It would stay there until summer. The batteries will run everything for months, but using the heater reduces that to a few weeks. We hooked it up to the house power.
We're still learning what it means to be an adult. We're still finding our way, but we're doing it together. I've dreamt of having my own place since I was a pup. The trailer is nice and'll meet our needs while we travel, but it's a bit tight for 6 furs. Fortunately, the bed is more than large enough to accommodate all 6 of us.
* * *
The snow began to melt as winter gave way to spring. I began to make a list of places we'd like to travel to and what we'd like to see. None of us wanted anything structured. We'd go where we wanted and stay until we felt it was time to move on.
Zack will be doing the same kind of work that I am. I introduced my brother to my boss and set him up with an interview. I've never met my boss in real life. He's a domestic cat with calico fur. His name is Avery. He was shocked to see the size of my brother as he sat next to me. His interview was much like mine. Zack is just as smart as I am and had no trouble passing their test.
Vance chose a slightly different career path. He's a programmer like us but prefers the financial side of things. There's a lot of overlap, and he has the four of us to help him if he needs it. He'll be working from home just like the rest of us.
Jacob is just like Simon. Those two foxes have always been inseparable, but now their lives are drifting closer together. Jacob is a mechanical engineer, just like Simon. He hasn't graduated yet, but he's already accepted a job at G.P.M. Jacob asked to be assigned to Simon's department, and his request was granted. They will work together and see each other at work every day. They've even hinted at getting an apartment together, but I think they plan to wait a year.
* * *
The big day came. Everyone except for our mother was there for the graduation. I filmed Jacob and Vance accepting their diplomas. My brother, like me, was one of the last ones to get his.
The party was held at Vance's house. Everyone, including Jacob's parents, were there. We had dinner and played games. The graduates received gifts, even Xander. High school graduation was in a few days, but Xander got to enjoy his party and presents early.
There are several chairs for the giants. Any ordinary chair would collapse under their weight. I take a seat on my brother's lap and hand him a beer. He puts his treat to his lips and swallows. "I'm so proud of you, Zack."
Zack wraps his free arm around me. "Thanks, Alex, and thanks for giving me such a great life."
"You're welcome,' I say with a smile. 'And don't forget we're just getting started."
"I know, but if it weren't for you, none of this would have happened."
"Maybe," I say as I take a swig of my beer.
"Alex, I might be more than 3 times your size, but you're still my alpha," my brother says sincerely.
I lean in and nuzzle him with my muzzle. "I know. And I could only be the alpha because you guys choose me."
* * *
All of us have jobs now. We could no longer help Hue and Theo with their tree-cutting business. We stuck around for a few days, but it was time for us to begin our adventure. I knew the first place I wanted to visit; everyone was enthusiastic about spending the summer camping.
I drove past our old house with the 5th wheel in tow. For once, the lawn had been mowed. It looked unchanged. I hadn't checked up on our mother in a long time. I try to put any thought of her out of my mind.
I continue north. My brother keeps me company in the passenger seat. He's too big now to operate our SUV comfortably. I enjoy shofering him around.
We're surrounded by forest on a back road. I'm familiar with the area and don't need a map. I turn right. I crack the window to let in the familiar scents of nature and cooking meat. This time, I turn left towards the campground. I stopped at the booth, confirmed our reservation, and made our way toward the far side of the campground.
I made reservations over a month ago. We deserved a good long break, so I reserved it for 30 days with the option of extending it. It's one of the best spots in the campground. I slowly back the trailer towards the shore of the lake. We're surrounded by forests to our left and right. The space is too tight to turn it parallel with the shore. Zack disconnects the camper, and I pull the SUV forward in case we need to go somewhere. We hook up the power and water and deploy the camper's pop-out extensions. The canopies are unrolled.
The back of the camper is feet from the shore. We'll have a perfect view when we wake up every morning. The spot came with a picnic table and several wooden lawn chairs. Zack and Vance walked down to the tiny office to get a few more chairs and ones that would support their weight.
They returned to find the rest of us without our shirts on. They followed suit. A short patch of forest separates us from the neighbors to our right, but to our left is nothing but wilderness. The trailer helps block our view of the neighbors, but there are rules against nudity. We don't dare to violate them, at least not while the sun is up.
This was a special occasion. It was steaks and fish fillets for everyone, along with corn on the cob and potato salad. We sat at the picnic table and ate together as a pack.
We all felt it. Being on our own felt sureal and wonderful at the same time. Over the years, we've grown accustomed to living together. We've never argued or fought because we loved each other too much.
* * *
A few weeks went by. During the day, the five of us would sit around the picnic table and work on our projects. Xander was the only one without a traditional job, but he was quickly finding people willing to spend money on his art.
We took in everything the campground and the surrounding area had to offer. We swam and played together in the lake. Hue and Theo joined us, and we went canoeing and hiking on the weekends. We paddled to the other end of the lake and back several times. We hiked up the eastern side of Long Lake and even went as far as Short Pond, which was several miles northeast.
Even though we spent each day working, it didn't feel like work. Even though we haven't found our permanent home yet, this is what I want my life to be like. This has been my dream since I was a pup. Where we live isn't important as long as we're together. This has been the first time in my life that I haven't been separated from the ones I love, not even for a moment. I would feel their bodies pressed against me as I went to sleep at night, and their faces were the first thing I would see in the morning. We were together every minute of every day. I didn't want to be separated from any of them ever again.
We enjoyed the campground, but I knew we'd need to explore somewhere new soon. I wanted to have one last party to celebrate with our friends before we leave the area.
Other than video calls, I hadn't seen Brent since high school. It's hard to believe I hadn't seen the coyote in over 6 years. I called him and pleaded with him to come and visit. Fortunately, it didn't take much convincing. I think even he knew it was time for him to come home. I would have been happy with just one day, but he agreed to stay for a week.
I was so excited I felt faint. I planned the week around Brent's visit. We'd finally get to meet his boyfriend. I had to extend our reservation for another week. We all took the week off, even Zack and Vance, although they felt nervous about taking time off after starting their jobs so recently.
I waited in the airport terminal with a mix of trepidation and excitement. Everyone from our old gang was with me to greet them. Adin and Badir had never met them in real life, but they weren't strangers.
Their plane landed 10 minutes early. I watched as furs left the plane and entered the terminal, but there were only two I was looking for. I saw my friend, who I hadn't seen in so many years. He looks exactly the same as he did when he was in high school. The neon-dyed fur is gone. His fur is back to his natural grey and brown. All of his piercings are gone. Even his clothes resemble what he used to wear.
I push through the crowd. Brent's eyes widen as he sees me, and I know why. The last time he saw me, I was only 6 feet tall, but now I'm a foot taller and about 250 pounds heavier.
Brent walks towards me, but I don't slow down. His tail sways casually. Mine feels like it's about to fly off. He opens his arms, and I do the same. Brent didn't expect it, but I couldn't stop myself. I reach down and scoop the little coyote up in my arms. His paws dangle in the air as I hold him against my chest. I hugged him tightly as he wrapped his thin arms around my neck.
"I missed you," I whimper as my eyes begin to water.
I feel his grip tighten. "I missed you too, Alex."
I can hear it in his voice. He's doing his best not to cry. I held him to the point it got awkward. People were staring at us, but I didn't care. I didn't want to let him go, but eventually, I had to. I returned his paws to the floor. He looks up at me.
"God damn, Alex, you got big."
I smile at him. I motion towards my brother and Vance. "Yeah, we all did."
Brent's jaw drops as he takes in the two giant beasts standing beside me. Zack squats down on his hunches, but even then, he's still taller than the tiny coyote. Zack opens his arms, and Brent steps into them. Zack's arms fold around him, and he almost disappears.
Brent rubs his muzzle against a head that's nearly as wide as his shoulders. Zack had the same problem I had. He didn't want to let him go. The giant wolf realizes he needs to share and releases him.
Vance and Brent used to be boyfriends. Their past makes them hesitate. Brent looks up at the giant mountain lion. All he can say is, "Hi Vance."
Vance breaks down the moment Brent says his name. He begins to cry as he scoops him up in his arms. They held each other far longer than any of us expected. I was expecting an emotional reunion, but I can sense there are still some unresolved issues between them.
Brent knows Chris joined the Guards. Chris has his own life now, although he hasn't found a girlfriend yet. Brent has seen the yellow lab mix on video calls, so he knows he's bulked up since their days in high school. I can tell the coyote is overwhelmed by how much everyone has changed.
Brent exchanged hugs with the furs, who were closer to him in size. Simon and Jacob were next. Unlike the rest of us, Simon and Jacob haven't changed since high school. Smaller furs tend to start late and finish early regarding growth.
As small as Brent is, he's still taller than the tiny foxes. Next was Xander. Brent was surprised to find Vance's little brother now towers over him. Lastly, it was Adin and Badir's turn. I couldn't tell who was taller, the coyote or the felines. No matter who was taller, it was obvious Adin and Badir had more muscle than the skinny canine.
Brent turns his attention toward the ram, standing quietly off to the side next to their luggage. He walks up to him, takes his hand, and leads him towards the group. We know who he is. He doesn't need an introduction. I may not be the largest of our group, but I'm the alpha. I step up to Lane confidently with open arms.
"It's good to finally meet you, Lane," I say as I wrap my arms around the shorter ram. He hesitates. I don't think he expected to receive such an affectionate welcome.
Lane returns the hug. "It's nice to meet you too, Alex."
I want us to be friends, but I want to get it across without being pushy. This isn't a time for words. I lean in and rub my muzzle alongside his. I go slowly so my intentions are clear. Lane's expression softens, and he returns the rub.
Lane makes the rounds with the rest of the group. I feel overwhelmed by nostalgia. It feels as though I'm in high school again. It felt like any other day when we would gather in the hallway before our first class and hang out as friends. It feels like the last 6 years never happened. Only they did happen.
Adin and Badir are the newest to join the group. Brent talks with them like they're friends catching up on old times. I'm not paying attention to their conversation, but judging by the way his ears dip, I'd say Badir is flirting with him.
My days in high school come rushing back to me. I took a moment to stand back as joyful memories came flooding back to me. My childhood wasn't the greatest, but I'm reminded of the good parts.
This truly is a new chapter in my life. Brent is my friend. We've been friends since we were pups. He has his life to live, but I can't help feeling like I want to be a part of it.
* * *
Brent and Lane arrived on Friday, July 4th. For some reason, that day seemed significant to me, but for the life of me, I couldn't remember why.
There was no way all 8 of us, along with their luggage, would fit in the SUV. Simon has his own vehicle now. Adin, Badir, and Jacob rode with him. Chris followed in his car.
I pull into the campground a little before 3 pm. I texted Hue and Theo before leaving the airport and found them already starting dinner. I parked the SUV in the usual spot in front of the camper. Chris parked behind Hue's truck, and Simon parked alongside Chris's car.
The two hoofs are shirtless. It's the beginning of July, and it's far too hot to wear shirts. I pulled mine off, and everyone else followed suit. I watched with amusement as Brent unbuttoned Lane's shirt for him. I realized the ram couldn't wear a regular T-shirt, not with the huge curved horns atop his head.
The ram wriggles as Brent pulls the shirt from around his broad shoulders. Lane stands tall and puffs out his chest. Brent and I share one thing in common: we both like big guys. Lane is about 6 inches shorter than me, but if you include his huge curved horns, then he's slightly taller.
Lane is massive compared to his boyfriend. Brent only comes up to the middle of his chest. Lane obviously works out. He has an impressive medium build. There's no way someone gets that big without regular visits to the gym.
There was another round of introductions. The three hoofs exchanged pleasantries with one another. For some reason, I expected them to behave differently with each other, but they're just like any other fur.
That's one of the amazing things about furs. We make no distinction between carnivores and herbivores. If we like each other, our species doesn't matter.
Our first day together reminded me why I worked so hard throughout my life. Being surrounded by people I care about is what makes life worth living. Being with them is worth more to me than any amount of money.
We're getting good at hosting large cookouts. This is a special occasion, and we spared no expense. All of us, including Xander, enjoyed a beer with our meal. Lively conversations ensued. We hadn't seen Brent in years, and Lane was new to the group. All focus was on them.
None of us were in the mood for any vigorous activities. We'll have time for that tomorrow. Most of us sat around and talked. Chris, Xander, Adin, and Badir walked to the other end of the campground for a friendly 2v2 game of hoops.
Tall trees surround the campsite and keeps everyone in the shade. The hot summer air feels nice, but the shade improves everyone's mood. A soft breeze blows through the trees and carries with it the scent of pine. The constant sound of waves lapping at the rocky shore adds to the tranquil setting. It was after 6 pm, the food shack was closed, and along with it went the distant smell of cooking meat.
Vance and Theo gathered some wood and started a fire. The flickering flames and the scent of burning wood pulled everyone together like moths to a lamp. Lawn chairs were gathered around the fire pit. We sat together to watch the sunset. We reminisced about school and our jobs. Brent and Lane talked about their time living in New Seattle. Xander and Brent hit it off as they're both exceptional artists and have that in common.
The sky became streaked with reds and pinks. We relived our days in high school. We talked about some of our classmates we hadn't seen in years. Adin and Badir retold the story of the pitbull Mark, whom I had gotten violent with. Brent and Lane seemed concerned until Badir told them the reason why.
The sun disappeared below the hills, and the sky turned black. Stars shine through breaks in the canopy above. Light from the moon reflects off the lake. I don't think about it as I get up from my chair. I don't say a word as I scoop Brent up in my arms. I return to my chair and hold him in my lap. Brent leans into me as I wrap my arms around him. I get the impression he's wanted this for a long time. Lane gives me an annoyed look. But my brother rises from his chair and interrupts his stare. Zack holds his arms out, beckoning the ram to cuddle with him.
Lane smiles as he gets up. My brother picks him up like he's a rag doll. Zack returns to his seat, and Lane nestles in his lap.
Xander senses what's about to happen. "Hey, would you guys like to play cards?" He directed his question at the non-gay furs in the group.
Chris knows our end-of-the-day habits better than Simon and Jacob. "Sure, Xander, I'd love to. Simon, Jacob?" Chris poses the question suggestively.
Simon and Jacob haven't witnessed our activities firsthand, but they know what we do when the lights go down low. Neither fox has had a girlfriend. They've claimed to have had sex before on one-night stands. I have no reason to doubt them. From what they've said, it's only happened a few times.
I love both of them, but they're less adventurous when it comes to sex than the rest of us. Even though they're straight, they're just like us in almost every way. Both foxes want a relationship that will last them the rest of their lives. Every few months, they stick their paws in the dating pool, but neither fox has found the right one yet.
They haven't said it explicitly, but I sense their reluctance is because they want to start a family. Wanting to have children limits their choice of a mate to only canines. There are plenty of families where the female is of a different species. If it weren't for sperm donors, then our society would be significantly different from what it is today.
One thing that's universal among my brothers and my friends is none of us have any interest in having children. Our society is the result of human needs and wants. The rule of thirds prevails to this day. One-third of our population is gay, another third is bisexual, and the remaining third is straight. It was done that way for one reason only. They needed giant males to do the hard physical labor they were unwilling to do themselves.
Humans on Earth died out thousands of years ago. Some escaped before the collapse, but they've never returned. The fate of that far-flung colony is unknown. Nobody has ever met a living human, and history was my least favorite subject. From what I remember, humans were predominantly heterosexual. Furs were everything from slaves to beloved companions. Giant, physically powerful furs were in great demand. From what I understand, giant muscular furs weren't that popular among the heterosexual population.
There are many options available to us if we choose to raise children. The most obvious is the old-fashioned way, but that comes with its own complications. Surrogacy is another option. We still have a few functioning labs that can make furs in tanks the same way our creators did; however, that option is extremely expensive. And lastly, there's always adoption.
Simon and Jacob have desires I'll never understand. I don't envy them.
I can't imagine falling in love with someone and that person leaves you.
I've experienced firsthand what can happen to children when parents separate. It's something else entirely to be separated from your pups. I can only hope they find the right one and no one gets hurt along the way.
There's not enough sleeping space in the camper. I rented 2 additional camping spots for the week. I went the extra mile and got spots with lean-tos. I also rented air mattresses from the main office. I provided the rest of the supplies myself.
Xander disappears into the camper to retrieve a plastic case filled with various games. "I'll take spot 114," he announces to the group as he leads them into the night.
Simon, Jacob, and Chris follow behind the teenage mountain lion. I watch as waging tails pass through rays of moonlight shining down from breaks in the canopy. A street light illuminates the bend in the road. Moths and other insects flutter around the light. I listen to their laughter as they fade into the night.
I can sense male urges slowly building among the group. Casual petting turns into heavy petting, which quickly leads to caresses and kissing. Hue rises from the oversized wooden lawn chair, and Theo joins him. The enormous hoof motions for Vance to join them.
Hue walks up to Lane and Zack. "Hey, Lane, would you mind if I take Zack for tonight? I have a feeling you three have some catching up to do."
Hue isn't subtle about what he's implying. I don't mind being the alpha of the group, but they also make it easy for me. Hue knows how far back my friendship with Brent goes. I've known him longer than anyone in our group. We have a lot of catching up to do.
Zack releases his grip, and Lane rises to his hooves. "Sure, Hue."
"Thanks, Lane," says the enormous hoof as he pulls his shorts off. I can see Lane's shocked expression even in the dim light. Hue gives the ram a view of his rump as he walks away. Theo, Vance, and Zack follow behind him. Vance disappears into the camper and returns a moment later with what I assume was a bottle of lube. Shorts are removed and piled up on one of the picnic tables.
My brother's black fur makes him almost invisible in the darkness. Hue and Theo's dark brown fur makes them equally hard to see. Vance is the only one who stands out.
Our lot is at the furthest end of the campground. We're somewhat isolated from our fellow campers. I listen to hooves crunch on the dirt. The four giants pass under the street light on the corner. The sound of footsteps changes as they find the paved road. The sound of hooves crunching on gravel returns as they turn onto the hiking trail that spans the lake's western side.
I know what the four giants plan to do. There are plenty of secluded places along the trail where they can hide to have some fun. Fucking in the forest is a favorite of mine. They won't be caught as long as they refrain from making too much noise. Overall, Hue and Theo aren't that loud, but they do grunt loudly when they climax. My brother will growl when he's feeling especially aggressive. Our felines are the noisiest when it comes to sex. They tend to hiss and screech like wild cats when they fuck.
I'm along with Brent and his boyfriend. I find myself in an awkward situation. I give the coyote a gentle squeeze. "Brent, I'm so glad to see you again. You don't know how much I missed you all these years."
Brent leans against my chest and sighs softly. I know the reason why. He loves his boyfriend, but he doesn't know how to share. "I missed you too, Alex."
"Lane, would you join us, please." The ram takes a seat in the lawn chair next to me. Once he's situated, I rise from my chair. The campfire burns steadily, but the flames no longer dance above the rim of the firepit. There's enough flickering light to make out the surprised look on his face as I place Brent in his lap.
I turn my chair around so we're looking at one another. My tone is serious but friendly. It feels as though I'm hosting a business meeting. "I realize we don't have a lot of time together. I don't want to waste what time we have, so I'll just come out and say it. I love you, Brent."
Lane begins to squirm, and I know why. Brent nods his head but doesn't say anything. Like it or not, I'm still the alpha, even in this situation. "I know this is our first time meeting in person, Lane. But we've known each other for years. I want Brent in my life. I want you in my life. I want both of you."
Lane looks confused. "What do you mean, Alex?"
"Brent belongs to you just as my brother belongs to me. Hue has Theo. Adin and Badir are married. Vance has his little brother. Brent will be yours forever. I don't want to waste our time together with subtle hints.
What I'm saying is, would you like to join the pack?"
Lane figures out what I'm getting at. He realizes I want both of them. "You want me to?" he asks hesitantly.
I nod my head. "I do. We aren't strangers, but we don't have time to get to know each other the old-fashioned way. All I can do is tell you how I feel."
"I think I'd like it more if you showed me,' Lane says as he jostles Brent back to reality. The coyote snaps out of his daze. 'Alex, I do like you and the others too. And you're right, we don't have a lot of time together. Brent means everything to me. I know he's wanted to be with you for a long time."
"Hey!" Brent yells in protest.
Lane squeezes him. "Come on, Brent. Alex is right. We don't have time to waste. I want you to be happy. And to be honest, I'd like to give this a try."
Brent turns to his boyfriend. "You do?"
"Sure. We won't know if we like it if we don't try it. I don't want you living with regret."
Brent wraps his arms around Lane's neck and cries on his shoulder. Lane rubs his back. The two furs look at each other and then turn their attention to me.
"Come on, let's head over to the other lean-to," Lane says to the both of us.
The three of us rise from our chairs. I make a quick detour to the camper to retrieve a bottle of lube. It's a good thing we have a backup. I reserved a spot just for Brent and Lane. Unfortunately, campsite 98 was the closest one I could get.
I toss the bottle to Lane and scoop Brent up in my arms. I cradled him in my arms as I held him against my chest. The small coyote rubs his muzzle against my neck. "Alex, I still can't get over how big you got."
I chuckle as I remember what we were like back in high school. "Don't worry, Brent. I won't hurt you."
We keep our shorts on. We hit the pavement and passed under the street light. The swarm of insects has grown thicker since Xander left to play cards with the guys. We stroll past their campsite. A light is on in their lean-to.
Every campsite is occupied. The ones with campers have TVs playing. Even the ones with tents have plug-ins for devices. Some furs are gathered around tables or lawn chairs, watching videos on various devices. I spot a family of grey wolves gathered around a fire pit. The parents sit and watch their two pups throw pinecones and other small sticks into the fire. I couldn't help but feel like that is what my childhood should have been like.
I set Brent on his paws as I heard a group of furs in the road up ahead. All of a sudden, a glow-in-the-dark ball comes bouncing in my direction. I reached out and snatched it up. I can make out a dark figure chasing after it. I toss it in his direction. The fur comes to a stop as the ball unexpectedly returns to him.
My black fur hides me in the darkness. I step into a ray of moonlight, and he sees me. To my surprise, he's a grey wolf, maybe 16 years old. I figured he must belong to the family I had just passed. He looks surprised. I don't think he expected to meet another wolf, let alone one so large.
"Hey, thanks," he says.
"Hey, no problem."
I stroll past him to find three other furs on the road. One appears to be a lynx, another is a collie, and the fourth is a young tiger.
I leave them to their game. I find a wooden pole with 98 on it. I turn into the campsite, and my paws again find dirt and grass. Every campsite has a standard picnic table, fire pit, and electrical hook-up. Most are otherwise bare and open, with plenty of space for furs to set up tents. The only difference is this campsite comes with a sizeable wooden lean-to.
The wooden structure sits nestled in the woods at the furthest end of the campsite. It's built on concrete pilings. I grab hold of the handle and pull the screen door open. I step inside, Lane and Brent follow behind me. I find the lamp hanging from the rafters and switch it on.
The lamp illuminates the spacious room. It can accommodate 8 furs comfortably. I set the bottle of lube on a crude wooden table. The back wall is wood from floor to ceiling, but the other three walls only rise to chest height. The remaining gap is filled with screens to keep the bugs out.
The structure is as basic as it gets, but it provides adequate shelter for those who don't want to sleep in a tent. The screen door is flimsy.
I pull it and latch it shut to help keep the bugs out. My ears twitch as a mosquito buzzes around my head. I clap my hands together and crush the annoying insect. I brush the tiny corps from my hand.
I feel the tension in the air. As sizable as Lane is, I'm still larger than both of them put together. I want to start with Brent, but my instincts tell me otherwise. I step up to the powerful ram. His curved horns make him appear taller, but I can still see the fur on top of his head.
It's easy to be an alpha when everyone treats me like one. I let my instincts guide me, but not for my benefit. The situation is awkward enough. It'll be easier if I lead.
Lane remains still as I run my hands suggestively over his bulky shoulders. I make it blatantly obvious that I'm admiring his physique. I paw at his muscular chest. "You're quite the catch, Lane. Brent is lucky to have you."
Lane clasp his hands over mine. Our eyes meet. His serious expression softens as he gives me a sly smile. "And I'm exactly what he likes. I'm bigger and stronger than him, and he loves it."
Brent's ears dip in embarrassment as he squeaks out, "Lane!"
Lane turns to his boyfriend. His hooves clack against the wooden floor as he crouches down to his height. Brent doesn't resist as the ram takes his hands in his. "Brent, we've been together for 5 years now. I think it's time we had a serious talk.' Brent's ears remain glued to his skull, but his expression turns to worry. 'There's no mystery. I like small, skinny guys, and you like them big with big muscles. Physically, we're a perfect match. In the beginning, it was all about sex. You were getting over your breakup with Wayne. And I was making up for years of my parents controlling my life."
Brent's ears lift upwards as he realizes his boyfriend is serious. Lane strokes the side of his face, and Brent looks into his eyes. Lane continues. "But we're more than that now. We love each other. I love you, Brent."
The coyote slams into Lane and almost knocks him over. "I love you too, Lane!" he yells.
The couple cry on each other's shoulders. I begin to feel like a third wheel. My instincts tell me my role here will be more important than any of us realize.
Lane rises to his hooves, and he lifts Brent to his paws. Lane turns his attention toward me. "Alex, neither of us has had sex with anyone else since we first met. We need to know if this is something we want."
"Do you mind if I lead?"
"I think it's best that you do," Lane says confidently.
"Brent, would you take his shorts off for me."
Brent looks surprised at my request. Lane presents himself to the smallest fur in the room. Grey and brown hands grab the fabric around his waist and yank downwards. The waistband stretches as it's pulled over Lane's muscular legs. He pulls the garment to his knees, and it falls in a heap around his hooves. Brent kicks it out of the way.
Lane thrusts his hips forward to give me a good view of what he's sporting between his legs. His sheath seems appropriate for his size; however, his balls appear larger than usual. I don't know if it's because he's a ram or if he has better-than-average genes.
"I can see why you like him so much," I say, which elicits a shy smirk from Brent.
It's my turn to get hands-on. I squat down to Brent's level. I take a moment to offer him my muzzle. Brent isn't a wolf, but he still understands the significance of rubbing muzzles together. He leans forward and gives me a proper wolf greeting, and I give him the same in kind.
I give him some soft pets, starting on his shoulders and chest. I wrap my hands around his upper arm, and the tips of my claws connect. He's about the same height as Adin and Badir, but he's skinny as a rail compared to the two felines.
My hands flow toward his hips. Our eyes meet, and he nods his head in silence. I tug his shorts off, and he lifts his paws upwards. I wadded the garment into a ball and tossed it on the table. I'm a wolf. I can't help myself as I lean in and sniff at my friend's crotch. Brent giggles as my nose brushes against his balls and sheath.
I take a step back and stand tall. "Would you like to do the honors?" I say as I direct the question toward the small coyote.
Brent looks excited and nervous at the same time. I'm larger and considerably more muscular than Lane. Brent grabs hold of my shorts and gives them a downward tug. My wagging tail gets in the way. His eyes widen as he exposes my sheath and balls. He continues downward. He struggles to get them over the bulges in my legs, but I also remain still, so he has to work to get them off.
Brent is too nervous to do or say anything. I turn my attention to Lane. I keep my arms at my side and subtly tighten my upper body at him. The muscles from my shoulders to my wrist tense even though I'm not flexing. The right side of my chest ripples, and then the left. He figures out what I'm doing and smiles. I step forward and run my hands slightly over his shoulders and chest.
Lane smiles at me as he says, "Brent enjoys my body greatly. I know he likes yours too."
"And what about you, Lane."
The ram smiles at me. "I like small predators. But that's not why I love him. I wouldn't have cared if he was as large as you; I still would have fallen in love with him."
Lane hears his boyfriend begin to whimper. He doesn't hesitate as he scoops him up in his arms. I watch as the couple cry on each other's shoulders. I hear a faint "I love you too" escape from Brents's lips. I get the sense their relationship needs this.
They part and wipe tears from the fur around their eyes. I know what comes next. "Come on, Lane, let's give him a show."
Lane smiles at me. He joined me at my side, flexed his arms, and struck a pose. I did the same. Brent watched as two large males showed off. His sheath swelled as his cock emerged from it's holder.
None of us are strangers when it comes to being with another male. Only this is a new experience for all of us. We give Brent a show like none he's ever witnessed before. We pretend we're showing off to one another, but it's all for him.
Just like me, Lane knows when it's time to move on. We begin to pet and caress each other slowly. Our sheaths can't contain our cocks anymore, and the tips emerge. I run my hands up Lane's sides. I lean in and lick his lips.
I've kissed Hue and Theo, so I've experienced the inside of a hoof's mouth. Just like me, Lane has years of experience. Even though this is our first time together, there is no awkwardness between us. Our tongues slid together. I wrap my jaws around his, which catches him off guard, but only for a moment.
I reach down to free my knot. Lane stops to watch my cock rise into the air and harden. I've never seen a rams cock before. I expected it to be like Hue's, but it isn't. It's bright red, like a canine. Even though he's 6 inches shorter than me, his cock is the same length as mine; only I have far more girth than he does. He doesn't have a knot. His is a straight shaft that tappers to a sharp point.
I notice rounded bumps on the outer edges of his cock. He sees me staring and says, "You're wondering what the rows of bumps are,' I nod my head, and he continues. 'Some of our ancestors were given unnatural features. The bumps run in my family. I'm not a giant like Zack. My elite genes only affect what I have between my legs."
"I wouldn't say that," I add.
Lane smiles at me. "I've had my D.N.A. tested. What I have is above average in a few categories. My genitalia is the only thing considered elite."
"Hey, Lane, can we show him what your horns are good for?" Brent asks.
"Sure, hun," Lane says with a smile.
It's my turn to enjoy a show. I sit on the floor while the two lovers move to the air mattress. I watch as Brent makes out with someone more than twice his size. Their relationship isn't like one I've seen before. The alpha position shifts from one moment to the next, and they seem to enjoy the give and take.
Brent lubes up Lane's cock. Brent turns towards his partner and grabs hold of his horns. Lane keeps his neck straight as Brent does a pull-up. Lane grabbed hold of his ass and steered him onto the pointed tip of his cock.
Brent might be skinny, but he's strong enough for this. His tiny biceps compress as he pulls himself up and down Lane's cock. Both furs moan as Brent does all the work.
Lane moans with pleasure as the coyote hangs from his curved horns. His tone tells me he's getting close. Brent stops and gets to his paws. "Alex, do you mind if he finishes inside you?"
I get to my paws. I put my hands on the half-high wooden wall. I lift my tail and say. "Come on, Lane. Come show me how strong you are."
The ram looks like he's about to pop. His hooves clack against the wooden floor. Strong hands grip my shoulders. Warm summer air blows through the screen as I look into the darkness. Anyone outside can see me from the chest up. They can see my expression as Lane penetrates me. We should turn the light off, but neither of us cares as we're only visible from the chest up.
Even though nobody can see the details, there's no mistaking what's going on. Lane groans as he grips me tight. It's obvious to anyone watching what's happening.
The bumps on Lane's cock add to the experience, but it's nothing compared to Vance with his dragon cock. Lane was already on the edge; it didn't take long for him to go over. The lean-to shakes as he slams into me with all his strength. He cums for several minutes. He makes as much as I do. Without a knot to keep it in, his cum leaks out of me.
When it's over, I get on all fours. Brent and Lane work together like a couple to lick me clean. It's not perfect, but at least my legs aren't soaked anymore. The scent of sex is thick in the air. The smell disappears as a breeze blows through the open walls. Only to return a moment later.
Brent wants to fuck, but I can tell that's not what he really wants. I know what will happen if I go first. Lane collapses on the air mattress. I scoop Brent up and join him. We make out while he watches. This is as much therapy as it is enjoyment. We take turns swapping partners.
I know when to move on to the next act. I lay on the air mattress and lifted my tail. Brent gets behind me. He sniffs at my back door and licks at his boyfriend's leftovers. His cock is 6 inches at most. It reminds me of when I was 16.
Brent slides inside me with ease. He's in a hurry. He thrusts with purpose and knots me. After having my brother's knot inside me, his barely registers. Brent howls as he cums, which surprises me. I hope the neighbors don't notice.
This is why Brent was in such a hurry. My instincts tell me what he wants. He gets on all fours and lifts his tail. I get on top of him. I surround him to the point he's barely noticeable beneath me.
"Alex, I can't believe this is happening," he says with a whisper.
"We can't undo the past, but I hope we can still have a future together," I say softly in his ear.
"Me to Alex."
The small coyote moans as I penetrate him. He's tight even though he has sex with Lane on a regular basis. I take my time to loosen him up. I give him a small portion of my strength and knock him over. We laugh as we realize I might be too much for him. Brent gets back up, and I put an arm around him as I thrust.
We've both wanted this since high school. The past can't be undone. My only regret was not sharing this with him when I was closer to his size. I push my knot against his hole and hold it there. The only way it'll go in is if I hold him. My hands almost encompass his thin hips. I try to make it as quick as possible. I thrust forward as I pulled him backward at the same time.
The small coyote yelps as I knot him. I let him feel my knot expanding inside him. "God damn, Alex, your knot is huge!"
"You should see my brother's knot."
I give Brent a moment to catch his breath. I start again. I hold onto his hips as I thrust into him. I make it last. I cool off, only to begin again. I changed positions a few times. But each time, I did the work. I roll him face down onto the air mattress. Brent shares a few affectionate rubs with his boyfriend. The air mattress flexes as I thrust with purpose. I growl as my balls release. I blast semen into my lifelong friend.
We're not pups or even teenagers anymore. We have years of experience under our belts. We make up for lost time like the young adults we've grown into. I finished the first round, but I still have more to give him. I roll onto my side and wrap myself around my far smaller friend. Lane rubs Brent's belly, and I can feel his rub on my cock through Brent's belly.
The three of us snuggle together and enjoy what comes after I knot someone. I rub my muzzle against Brent's. He lifts his chin and gives me his throat. I give him a few licks, and his head falls back onto my bicep, which he uses as a pillow.
Usually, my knot will stay hard for about 20 minutes. Tonight is no exception. I felt it begin to soften, but I didn't want it to end just yet. I grind into him slowly. My shaft hardens again, but my knot doesn't expand beyond its normal size. It's more than enough to keep Brent's hole plugged tight.
I give Brent 10 more minutes. "Hey, Lane, would you turn the light off."
Lane smiles as he knows why. "Sure."
The light goes out. I take a firm grip on Brent and rise to my paws. I hold and carry him the same way my brother used to carry me when he had his knot buried inside me. I fling the flimsy screen door open.
All the campsites around us are occupied, but I'm not worried about being seen. There's a thin strip of forest that separates us from our neighbors. The canopy above is too thick for any moonlight to penetrate to the ground. My black fur makes me almost invisible in the darkness.
I walk around to the side of the lean-to while holding Brent. The little coyote's paws dangle off the ground. I squat down and return his paws to the grass. I don't say a word as he pulls himself off my cock. It pulls out with a pop loud enough for the neighbors to hear.
My limp cock falls between my legs. Brent holds his hole closed, turns, and squats down like he's taking a shit. Even in the dim light, I can see his fangs as he smiles up at me. A second later, it sounds like he has diarrhea as he forces my semen from his bowels. I can hear it splashing on the ground between his legs over and over. I may not be as productive as my brother, but I do make quite a mess.
* * *
I woke up Saturday morning without a care in the world. I'm lying on my side with Brent in my arms. Lane is pressed against my back. We wake together, stretch, and get to our paws and hooves.
I stand and realize they're snickering at me. "Ahh... what's so funny?" I chuckle, not knowing what's so amusing.
Brent points at my crotch and snickers. "Your fur is all matted."
I look down and smile as I remember we didn't do the best job cleaning up after ourselves last night.
"Come on, the campground has some showers we can use."
The sun was coming up, so we had to put our shorts back on. We walked to the far side of the campground. The shower was a crude but functional brick building. It's what you would expect for something only used seasonally. There were brick dividers between each stall, but that was the only privacy it offered.
"You guys want to wash me?" I ask with a yawn that shows off my long fangs.
Brent's ears hug his skull. "Yeah, Alex."
We take turns washing each other. When we were done, we realized we'd forgotten to bring a towel. We rang the water from our fur the best we could.
I turn to leave, and another fur bumps into me as I round a corner. I realize he's the grey wolf I'd seen playing in the street last night. He looks up at me with his jaws hanging open. I give him a friendly smile as I step past him. A moment later, his two brothers come rushing past me, followed by their father.
We leave the brick building and step into the fresh morning air. I couldn't help but think about the family of wolves as I walked back to the main campsite. What would our lives have been like if our parents had stayed together? Would my brother and I have the relationship we have today? I don't know. All I know is if enduring a horrible childhood was the price we had to pay, then I'd gladly pay it every time.
We returned to the campsite. The sky is washed with reds and pinks as the sun shines through the trees. The lake is as smooth as glass. My brother, Theo, Hue, and Vance are still asleep in the camper. Adin and Badin took the convertible bed.
I put on a pot of coffee. The smell would wake everyone up except my brother. The three of us grabbed a cup and headed outside to sit on the lawn chairs and stare at the lake.
I catch a glimpse of Simon and Jacob approaching in the distance, followed by Chris and Xander. Xander swoons over Chris. The yellow lab laughs as Xander tries his best to embarrass him. I can take a guess as to what happened last night.
Simon and Jacob follow the scent of coffee into the trailer. I smile as the tiny foxes join us at the shore of the lake. "So, how did things go last night?" I ask as I sip my coffee.
Xander gives Chris one last embarrassing hug as he finds a lawn chair for himself. Simon points at them as he plainly says, "Those two fucked each other last night."
Chris spits out his coffee and sputters as Simon achieves what Xander couldn't. The dog's ears dip in embarrassment. Simon smiles as he rises from his chair. He looks down at a sulking Chris. "It was a nice night. Chris slept next to me and cuddled with me all night."
"Oh...really," I give them a curious look.
Simon turns around and flops down in Chris's lap. Chris hesitates momentarily, then wraps his muscular arms around the tiny silver fox. Simon leans back and gives the yellow lab a friendly nuzzle. "This doesn't mean I want you to fuck me, Chris."
Chris snickers as Simon squirms and tries to get comfortable. "Yeah, I know."
"It just means we're best friends, Chris."
Tears form around the edges of Chris's eyes as he whimpers softly. I can see it as he realizes his true friends never left him.
Xander spreads his arms wide and beckons Jacob to join him. "Jacob!"
The tiny red fox smiles and takes a seat in Xander's lap. Xander gives Jacob a few rubs before they settle down together.
Adin and Badir are the next to join us, followed by Vance and Theo. I assume Hue is keeping my brother company while he continues to doze.
Eventually, the two giants join us. Not wanting them to be left out, Badir climbs into my brother's lap, and Adin climbs onto Hue. Both felines rub muzzles against their chest and make a show of petting them.
Never in my life could I have imagined such a perfect morning. The 13 of us gathered around as breakfast was prepared. We had more hands than we needed to do the work. I realized what it takes to feed 13 furs. A few of us don't eat as much as the others, but the giants among us more than makeup for it.
It took 4 bags of potatoes, 8 dozen eggs, 6 loves of bread, and a mountain of bacon and sausage to feed everyone. My brother and Hue were the primary culprits, but Theo, Vance, and I ate our fair share. Chris and Lane ate as much as our two smaller felines and three canines put together.
* * *
I felt a sense of peace settle over everyone as one day rolled into the next. It seemed impossible, but it felt like the 13 of us were meant to be together. They mean more to me than any amount of money. However, the lack of money is why it'll never happen. I would give anything to spend the rest of my days living in the campground with everyone. I know it'll never happen as everyone has their own lives to live.
We spent our days playing and having fun together. Swimming and playing games in the lake were a favorite. We enjoyed our nature hikes together. In the evenings, we enjoyed each other. Simon and Jacob were the only ones who didn't participate, although they did find someone to cuddle with at night.
Chris is a horny dog, but it still surprises me how adventurous he's become. He prefers sex with his smaller friends, but he will seek me out when he's feeling brave. I'm always gentle with him whenever we're together. I trust Chris. If he says he's straight, then I believe him. However, I'm beginning to think he might be bisexual after all.
The middle of the week came. I knew Brent was putting it off. He hadn't been home in 6 years. Seeing us was something he wanted to do. Seeing his family again was not one of them. This was something he and his boyfriend had to do alone. I let them borrow my SUV.
Brent's childhood wasn't the greatest. His problems were different than mine, and my brothers but a horrible childhood is something we have in common. He was affected in a different way. He repressed his feelings his entire life. He never became himself until he was finally free of their control. He may have taken it a bit too far, but I don't blame him for that; I'd probably have done the same in his situation.
I didn't expect it to be a long visit, but to my surprise, they were gone most of the day. His parents don't know he's gay, and I expect that will be enough of a shock. Finding out he has a boyfriend more than twice his size will be another.
Brent and Lane returned right on time for dinner. They joined us at the table even though they'd just eaten. They recanted the visit, although I sensed they avoided most of it. Brent has never had a great relationship with his parents. His parents might love him, but it's conditional. I sense he may never meet their requirements.
After the sun went down, Brent and Lane would make the rounds with the group. They even managed to get some pets in with Simon and Jacob, but that was as far as that went. Brent isn't large enough to accommodate Zack or Hue, but Lane is. Brent watched as Hue and, later, Zack gave him their attention. Although Lane wasn't big enough to take my brother's knot.
Out of everyone Brent and Lane had sex with, there was one among us they had missed: his former boyfriend. I'm the alpha of the group. It's my job to mend fences if it's possible.
The sun had gone down, and the bugs were circling the street light once more. "Vance, would you come with me."
Vance turns to me excitedly. It's that time of the day. He expects this to be about sex. "Sure, Alex."
I find Xander chatting with Brent and Lane about art. "Hey, Xander, do you mind if I steal them from you?"
"No, Alex, go right ahead."
Vance's expression sours as he figures out what I'm doing. Brent doesn't look happy either, although Lane seems relieved. "Come on, we need to talk."
The three furs follow alongside me in silence as I lead them toward campsite 98. A few streetlights illuminate the paved road. The forest is filled with the flickering light from dozens of campfires.
I led Brent and Lane to their campsite. This situation will require some delicacy. I toss some kindling in the firepit, add a few logs, and start a fire. We find chairs and gather around as the fire roars to life.
"I don't need to say it. You guys already know I love each of you. And that includes you to Lane. Vance, Brent, I know you two still love each other. I can see it in how you've been avoiding each other. I can't make you guys do anything you don't want to. But I wouldn't be much of a friend if I didn't at least try to help you two get back together."
Vance is now large enough that he could easily eat Brent if he wanted to. Despite his greater size, Brent is still alpha over Vance. It wasn't so weird 6 years ago, but now it seems almost comical today. Despite his size, Vance is a big softie. I love that about him.
Brent lets out a loud sigh as he rises from his chair. He stands in front of the massive mountain lion. "Vance, can I join you?"
Vance opens his arms welcomingly. "Sure, Brent."
Vance welcomes the small coyote into his lap. Brent nuzzles his old boyfriend affectionately. Fur rubs against fur as he falls against his bare chest. They enjoy the moment together as the past bubbles to the surface. "Vance, I'm sorry for how I broke up with you. I thought I was doing the right thing, but I was wrong. It was cruel. You're my friend. I should have been a better friend to you. I didn't mean to hurt you. Can you ever forgive me?"
Flames grow taller and illuminate the pair. Massive arms fold around Brent. Except for his head, he almost disappears from view.
It's hard to tell in the flickering light, but I can hear it in his voice. Vance is crying softly. The big cat nods his head. "Brent, it wasn't your fault. I know it never would have worked out between us. I would have been fine if we had broken up, but it felt like I had lost you for good. I don't care if we can't have sex. I just missed my friend."
Brent begins to cry against his chest, and Vance does the same. "I'm sorry for hurting you, Vance. I'm sorry for being a horrible friend."
Vance nuzzles Brent slowly. "Yes, Brent, I forgive you. I know we can't have that kind of relationship. I just want my friend back. That's all I want. I want you back."
"Me to Vance," Brent says with a soft whimper.
My two friends hold each other until Lane interrupts them. Lane kneels to their level. "Come on, you two, I think there's something we need to do."
They look up at the huge ram and realize what he's implying. "Are you sure, Lane?" Brent asks.
I see Lane smile in the flickering light. "Of course, Brent. There's no reason we can't all be friends, and there's no reason we can't be friends with benefits."
Lane turns his attention to me. "Do you want to join us, Alex?"
"You know I want to, but I think you guys need this time together. You can tell everyone about it in the morning."
I smile, and my long fangs show in the light from the fire. I rise from my chair. My tail is free to wag; it shows my happiness as I disappear into the night.
* * *
Brent, Lane, and Vance were late to breakfast the following morning. When they did show up, they were greeted by friendly smiles. The three furs couldn't keep their hands off one another. It was obvious they were making up for lost time. Unfortunately, Brent and Lane leave to return home tomorrow.
Thursday was the last day we'd all be together. There was enough time tomorrow for us to have breakfast with Brent and Lane before they had to catch their flight.
I could see it in their body language. Vance and Brent were trying to cram 6 years of lost time into one day. Vance was trying to develop a friendship with Lane at the same time. They spent the day together, just the three of them. They went on a long walk together. Being alone would give them a chance to heal old wounds and make up for lost time.
Vance spent the night with Brent and Lane. I would have loved to spend the night with them, but they need time together.
Chris invited me to join him in the straight-fur lean-to. We played cards with Simon and Jacob. I love Simon and Jacob, but they aren't interested in our after-dark activities, but that doesn't mean we aren't their friends.
A few games of cards turned into a few games of cribbage. Simon wins the game and blurts out, "If you guys want to fuck go ahead. We don't mind."
Simon's bluntness stuns me, and then I notice the two foxes are giggling. Chris's ears dip in embarrassment. I figured he would be used to it by now. "What do you say, Chris?"
Chris looks at me shyly, "Sure, Alex," he says softly.
We rise from our chairs with wagging tails, and Simon adds, "Just one thing before you two wander off.' We stop and give him our attention. 'Will you come back to keep us warm?"
I smile at him. "Sure, Simon."
"Oh, when you're done, would you mind washing yourselves off first? We have to go home tomorrow, and we don't want to reak of cum," says Jacob.
I chuckle. "Sure."
* * *
Watching Brent and Lane board the plane was an emotional moment for everyone. None of us wanted to see them leave, and they didn't want to leave us. They exchanged long, teary-eyed hugs with everyone. When it was Vance's turn, he could barely let them go.
The rest of the guys returned to the campground to spend the weekend with us. We start our adventure Monday morning.
To my surprise, Simon invited Zack to spend the night in their lean-to. There was a brief intermission when he and Chris wandered off to find someone to have sex with. But they returned to cuddle after they had their fun.
Like always, the following morning, Zack was late for breakfast. I spied the giant wolf approaching the main campsite and couldn't stop laughing. Simon was riding on one of his shoulders, and Jacob was on the other. Chris was cradled in his arms and didn't look too happy about it.
Sunday morning came. We had a big breakfast. We could feel it in the air. It was coming to an end. It was time for everyone to return home.
I lifted Simon off his paws. I didn't want to let him go. I nuzzled him with my muzzle, and to my surprise, he returned the goodbye rub. "We're not going away forever. We'll return regularly."
"I know. It's just I don't like goodbyes," Simons says as he pouts.
"Me neither," I say as I return his paws to the grass.
I give Jacob the same goodbye. It's Chris's turn. I lean into him, put my hand behind his head, and kiss him. The labrador is stunned. I give him a few playful licks to snap him out of it. He hugs me and kisses me back. "You finally starting to get over your phobia of making out with a guy in public?"
Chris smiles and kisses me again. His tail begins to wag. "Yeah, but it depends upon the guy."
It's Theo's turn. He reaches around and squeezes my ass as we makeout for all to see. A bulge grows in his shorts, but it'll be Hue's job to take care of that when they get home.
Theo hands me over to Hue. The giant hoof lifts my paws off the ground. He gets under my legs and cradles me in his arms. Huge hoof lips wrap around mine as we give each other a deep-throated goodbye.
It was a long and emotional goodbye. Tires crunched on the gravel as one vehicle after another left. It was just the six of us. Myself and my brother. Vance and Xander, along with Adin and Badir. We leave in the morning. We went about cleaning and getting everything ready to depart tomorrow morning.
None of us felt like cooking. We went to the snack shack by the entrance to the campground and had dinner. My brother can eat almost as much as the 5 of us put together. Feeding him is expensive, but none of us care about the cost. Zack can stuff an entire cheeseburger in his mouth. The dog running the counter was shocked to watch 12 of them disappear down his throat, along with 4 orders of large fries.
There wasn't much beer left, but we decided to finish it off. We cluster around the campfire. Xander purrs in my lap. Adin snuggles with Vance, and Zack cradles Badir in his arms as though he's a kitten.
I run my hand up Xander's cute belly and feel his hard abs. I run my fingertips along his ribs, and he giggles. I lift against his bulging pec as I lean forward and nuzzle him with my muzzle. I give him an affectionate squeeze as I say softly, "God damn, Xander, you've grown so much, and your muscles have gotten so big."
"Yeah, I never would have gotten this big if it weren't for you guys. You guys made it so much fun. And I really like that I'm bigger and stronger than Badir," Xander adds with a chuckle.
"Hey,' Badir yells in protest. 'I like it too. And I've enjoyed watching my brother transform into a hansom big cat," he chuckles.
"We all have,' I add as I squeeze him affectionately. 'We all love you, Xander."
Xander twists around and rubs his muzzle against my chest. "I know, and I love you guys too.' Xander is quiet for a moment as he pouts against my chest. 'Sorry,' he says with a whimper. 'I just never imagined I could be this happy."
I pet Xander as we enjoyed the peace and tranquility of nature and each other's company. The sun begins to set. It's still light out, but I don't care. I rose from the chair, set Xander on his paws, and pulled my shorts off. Everyone stares at me in shock. I doubt anyone will notice me, but there's little anyone can do about it as we leave tomorrow.
I approached my brother, extended my hand, and invited him to join me. Adin joins his husband, and Xander flops down on his older brother. The felines don't hold back as they begin to kiss each other.
Zack yanks his shorts off and follows my wagging tail into the lake. We wade out until our sheaths are concealed beneath the waves.
Badir yells at us. "You guys forgetting something?" he says as he pulls his arm back and throws something in our direction.
Something lands in front of me with a splash. I realize it's a bottle of lube. "Thanks, Badir," I say as I fetch it.
Darkness settles upon us. An owl hoots in the distance. Campfires dote the shoreline in the distance. I'll miss the smell of burning wood. We swim out toward the undeveloped western side of the lake, just far enough to have some privacy.
I get my arms around my brother's neck. I lean into him and say, "Zack, I love you so much."
Zack nuzzles me and says, "I love you too, Alex."
We nuzzle each other in a way that's unique between wolves. "God damn, Bro, you're so fucking big. I can't believe you're finally fully grown."
Zack snickers. "Yeah, me either. I thought I'd never stop growing."
"I always knew my little brother would turn out to be a giant. I can't believe you outgrew Hue by 6 inches. It's almost unheard of for a wolf to reach 8 and a half feet tall."
Zack pulls me onto his massive chest. "And don't forget I'm 1,440 pounds of muscle."
"Trust me, there's no way I can forget about that. Just like there's no way I can forget how big you're cock is."
Zack giggles like he's a pup again. "Yeah, 18 inches is almost too big. But I know how much you like it."
I chuckle as he reminds me of when we were teenagers. I rub my muzzle against his overly muscled chest. "I'm so glad you turned out to be a giant Zack. You're so big. Your body is everything I want in a mate."
"Thanks, Alex, and I'm glad you pushed yourself to become a heavyweight. I always wanted a strong mate, and I like your big muscles too."
I chuckle as the sense of deja vu comes over me. "Thanks, little Bro. Your body is amazing, but you know why I love you so much, don't you?"
His massive head nods in the darkness. I catch a glint of moonlight in his golden eyes. "Yeah, Alex, I know. I know everything that goes through your head. I wouldn't be much of a mate if I didn't. You're the reason why my body is a work of art. I did it for you. It's the same reason why you're so muscular. You did it for me."
"You know, I just realized something," I say idly.
"Oh, what's that?"
"I finally achieved the goal I set out for over 6 years ago.' Zack's ears dip in confusion. 'We can finally be together every minute of the day. We'll never be separated ever again."
Zack squeezes me hard. "Ahh... Zack, you're crushing me!"
The giant wolf softens his grip. "Oh, sorry, Alex."
I nuzzle him to let him know everything is okay. "It's alright. You're still one big, strong pup, aren't you."
"Yeah, Alex, but I'm all grown up now."
"I know. I almost can't believe that we're adults. It feels like that blizzard happened yesterday. Only we aren't as goofy as we were when we first came out to each other."
"No, that's for sure. Alex, you're the best brother in the world. I know you don't have genes like me, but you're still incredibly big and strong for a wolf. On top of that, you're a genius. I can't believe, after all these years, you're still taking care of me."
"I'll always take care of you, little bro,' I say with a pause. 'You know it's been almost a week since we had sex."
"Yeah, I think this has been the longest we've ever gone," Zack adds.
"I love our friends. I know this was a special occasion, but I need you more than once a week."
"Me to Alex."
I release my grip on my brother's neck. He takes the hint and lets me go. I begin to swim towards the dark side of the lake. "You coming, little bro?"
I hear splashing as Zack chases after me. I swim while Zack plows through the water like a tank. I come ashore. Water pours from my sodden fur like a wet dog. Moonlight reflects off my brother's wet fur as his huge paws crunch on the rocky ground. He reaches for me, but I leap back at the last second. I back out of reach. I'm a wolf. Despite his black fur, I can see the confused look on his face in the moonlight.
The leaves rustle as a breeze blows across the lake. I twirl around and taunt him with a wag of my tail. My brother chuckles as I tease him. He takes a step closer, and I step out of reach. He growls at me. My paws sink into the rocky shore as I take off into the night.
Zack knows when I want to have some fun. My brother chases me like a wolf pursuing prey. I leap over boulders like it's an obstacle course. My brother might be bigger and stronger than me, but I'm faster; I have no trouble staying ahead of him.
I dart around a massive boulder and hide behind it. There's a crash above my head. I look up just in time to watch the giant naked beast leap to the ground. His paws come down with a loud crunching of stone again stone. I clench my jaws and try not to laugh as Zack realizes he lost sight of his prey. He takes off in the most obvious direction.
Zack sprints to catch up but quickly realizes I'm nowhere to be seen. I watch with amusement as he spins in circles, looking for me. His ears swivel as he hears me trying to quell my laughter.
Zack is breathing hard as he walks up to me. "Chasing you is fun," Zack says between huffs.
"You caught me,' I add as I lean back seductively against the boulder. 'Now that you caught your prey, what will you do with me?"
Zack reaches around, grabs hold of my butt, and lifts me to his height. I know what he wants. I toss the bottle of lube to the ground and wrap my arms around his thick neck as our jaws clamp together. He forces his tongue inside my mouth. Our tongues twist together. I lick inside his mouth. His tongue is so big it fills my mouth. His head twists and our jaws lock together. I breathe through my nose as he rams his massive tongue down my throat.
Zack pulls his tongue out of my throat and leans back. I lick submissively at his lips. "I know you want me to fuck you first, but I need to feel you inside me, Alex."
I nod in the darkness. "I know,' I say as I run my claws playfully through the fur on his head. 'You what else I like about my fully grown little brother?"
Zack chuckles as his hands slide over my hips. "No, what?"
"Your voice."
"My voice?" he says, amused.
"Yeah, I love it. It's so deep and masculine. It makes you sound so powerful. It suits you."
Zack chuckles. "Well, that's because I am big and powerful," he says as he presses his sheath against mine.
My cock expands inside my sheath. The tip pushes into the warm summer air. I drop to my knees. I press my nose against my brother's balls and inhale slowly. "And Xander was right about cutting back on the bathing. I can't get enough of your scent."
"We don't need to bathe as long as we don't get cum in our fur. And even if we do, we can still skip the shampoo. So how about we stop?" Zack asks me.
"You know what? That sounds like a great idea. I am a wolf, after all. And you know how much your scent turns me on.' I stop for a moment and chuckle to myself in thought. 'You know Zack, you make me so happy."
"Oh?"
"I wake up next to the best little brother in the world every morning. Your body is perfect, but it's who you are as a wolf that I'm in love with."
There's a deep rumble as the colossal beast chuckles. "We are perfect for each other, aren't we? Now, how about I give you my tail."
I smile in the darkness as my enormous brother turns and lifts his tail at me.
* * *
I woke early Monday morning as the sun was coming up. Like it or not, our vacation was over, and it was back to work. Fortunately, we can work while we're traveling. I plan to take the first hour of driving, but someone else will need to take over as I have a career to look after.
Last night, my brother and I made love under the moonlight. It was romantic. We took it slow to make up for the week-long absence. Making love to him isn't like it was when we were teenagers. He's far larger than he was back then. He's a true giant. He's now over three times my size. He's so big he can almost wrap his jaws around my head.
I never expected I'd keep up with my brother. I never expected I'd grow to be 7 feet tall and 464 pounds, but I have. If I were a few inches shorter, then there's no way I'd be able to take his knot. Other than my heavy build, I'm average for a wolf. I have a 12-inch cock which is the same size my brother had when he was 14 years old.
I'm big enough to make my brother moan. However, I'm not big enough to make him blow his load. Hue and Vance are the only ones in our group who can reach deep enough to make him cum. Zack's cock is a staggering 18 inches. A penis of that size is almost unheard of on a wolf. Hue has him beat by 2 inches, but that's because he's a hoof. Hue has greater length, but my brother has a far greater girth. His knot is nearly the size of a bowling ball when fully engorged.
We let Zack sleep while the rest of us squared away the last few items and hooked up the trailer. Xander joined me in the passenger seat to keep me company. I pulled out of the campsite. I rolled the window down to enjoy one last sniff of the campground. With the sun on our backs, I turned right onto the main road and headed west.","pools_count":1,"title":"The Year 5000: Chapter 16: A New Beginning","deleted":"f","public":"t","mimetype":"text/rtf","pagecount":"1","rating_id":"2","rating_name":"Adult","ratings":[{"content_tag_id":"4","name":"Sexual Themes","description":"Erotic imagery, sexual activity or arousal","rating_id":"2"}],"submission_type_id":"12","type_name":"Writing - Document","guest_block":"t","friends_only":"f","comments_count":"3","views":"46"}
