  "description_bbcode_parsed": "<span style='word-wrap: break-word;'>This follows up from the Summer episode of the first four seasons series where we catch up with Clare once again the following year.</span>",
  "writing": "The Next Four Seasons (Summer)\n(M Leafeon + F Flareon)\n\nNOTE: This is a follow-up story to the corresponding Summer story of the first Four Seasons series.  If you aren't familiar with some of the details provided early on in the story, please go read that first.\n\nThe past winter was difficult for Clare to deal with.  As was the case during the previous winter, she came into true heat around late January as her swollen vulva pulsed with life and was eager to be bred.  She wanted to have eevee pups, to feel them against her soft and warm flareon body and to feel their sweet and tiny mouths attached to her nipples while they filled their little bellies with her creamy milk.  Of course, in order to make this dream a reality, she'd have to be mated first and while her body was screaming for sex, her mind had different ideas.\n\nDuring mating season, Clare could only think about the male vaporeon she \"played\" with the previous summer.  She fell in love with him and she knew that he had loved her, so much so that she really wanted to bear his offspring.  However, during the winter, he was deep in hibernation in his den on his island, sleeping through the cold of the winter until the weather warmed up in the spring.  Deep down, she knew that there was little chance of being bred by him, even though they had mated numerous times in the past.  However, her heart was still set on having his babies and as such, she decided not to go out and mate, hoping that in some way she could come back to him and let his sperm fertilize her eggs.\n\nThe winter and Clare's heat continued for about two more months before Spring finally arrived in late March.  The snow that was on the ground was rapidly melting away and Clare went back to the pond where she met her playmate.  Surprisingly, she was still in heat and able to release eggs from her ovaries for a little while longer and now that winter was over, she hoped that he'd be awake and somehow they could reproduce together.  However, when Clare made it to his pond, it was still partially ice-covered as she took one step on the icy surface and had her paw break through the ice, touching the chilly water underneath.\n\nShe pulled her paw out and licked it with her warm tongue to warm it back up while looking to the island where her vaporeon playmate lived.  He never came out of his den, much to her disappointment as her ears dropped down low and she whimpered.  It appeared that he was still hibernating for a little longer and as such, she'd likely be out of heat by the time he finally woke up.  Nevertheless, she still loved him and wasn't going to give up on him just yet.  \"I'll come back later on once he's awake and try my luck then\", she thought to herself as she left to head back to her own den to rest for a while.\n\nA few more months passed until it was late in June.  By now, the signs of the past winter were long gone and many other mated pairs had families of their own to look after.  It was well into the 80's outside now and the pond was completely free of ice and had warmed a bit since early in the spring.  Clare was out of heat by now, but like the past year, her vulva remained swollen in a state of psuedoheat, still acting as if she were capable to releasing eggs.  She figured that her playmate was awake now and decided that now was the time that she should go back and get reacquainted with him.\n\nShe made her way back to the open pond and started to splash one of her front paws in the water, trying to get his attention and to let him know that she was back for him.  Within moments, the head of a vaporeon appeared from the island den.  However, this vaporeon looked different from the male she played with last summer.  This became even more evident as the vaporeon came completely out of the den, turned towards Clare and growled.  From where she was, Clare was able to see that this vaporeon had eight swollen teats on its belly, indicating that they were full of milk and giving her a hint to the vaporeon's gender.  To her surprise, this was a female vaporeon...apparently, her male playmate found a female of his own kind during the spring and had pups with her.\n\nTo make matters worse for Clare, the female vaporeon sensed Clare's psuedoheat and figured that she was after her mate.  The vaporeon female figured she couldn't let Clare have the male who bred her so she quickly responded by force, using her vaporeon abilities to send a powerful water blast out of her mouth in Clare's direction.  Clare was fast enough to dodge the attack, having the water blast splash up against the shore where she was a second before as the vaporeon female shot at Clare again.  Once again, Clare was just barely fast enough to avoid getting hit as she decided she only had one option...and that was to run away and hope the vaporeon female wouldn't follow her.\n\nFortunately for Clare, the female vaporeon had several young eevees to care for inside the den and couldn't pursue Clare even if she wanted to.  Besides, after the second water blast, the female vaporeon figured that her point was made, he was her mate now and no other female was going to take him away from her.  As such the vaporeon female retreated back into the den to return to her offspring and mate as Clare ran into a nearby grove of trees and soon arrived in the middle of a field of flowers amongst them.\n\nShe then put her front paws over her face and began to cry a bit.  She thought back to the previous summer to how they first met and how he showed her that he was in love with her, having taken his dolphin-like vaporeon cock into her fiery flareon vagina a number of times.  Although she couldn't fault him for wanting a mate he could actually breed with, she was still disappointed that she would never be able to receive his sperm while she was in heat, which made her feel even worse.\n\nAs she continued to feel bad about what had happened, her rear end remained raised up as only the upper part of her body was kneeling down while she had her face covered with her front paws.  This allowed anyone who might've seen her to be able to see her swollen vulva and it turned out that Clare wasn't alone in the flower field for long.\n\nA few moments after Clare arrived, a male leafeon appeared at the edge of the flower field, not too far away from Clare.  This was the territory he had dug his own den underneath and old fallen tree and when he heard noises in the woods it aroused his suspicion.  He had curiously wandered into the flower field to see what had entered his territory and soon saw Clare...from the backside.  His eyes immediately focused on the swollen vulva of the female flareon as now something else of his was becoming aroused.  Much like the vaporeon the previous summer, the male leafeon couldn't figure out why Clare was in heat this late in the season...but if she wanted to be mated, he was more than willing to give her what she wanted.\n\nHe came up behind her slowly as Clare continued to feel depressed, not noticing the male approaching from behind as he continued to get excited for the female flareon.  His red canine cock soon became fully exposed while a few drips of precum landed on the ground as he walked, showing that he was in full arousal and ready to mount Clare as soon as he had the chance.  But before he would do so, he wanted to make sure that she was in the mood to mate and he did so by reaching his tongue out towards her as soon as he was within reach and licking at her swollen vulva.  The taste made his erection twitch as it certainly tasted like she was in heat, making more precum drip from his pointed tip as he was beginning to get the urge to climb up on top of the female flareon.\n\nHowever, Clare quickly noticed that she was being licked from behind and in her current emotional state, she felt a bit differently about it.  She quickly sprang to all fours again, turned a 180 and faced the male leafeon with her collar bristled and smoke coming out of her nose.  When he noticed her sudden change in behavior, the male leafeon did the only thing he could think of...tuck his tail between his hind legs and whimper like a puppy.  He knew he was outmatched by Clare and could easily cause significant injury to him if she so desired, all he could do was beg for mercy and hope she'd let him go without hurting him.\n\nAs she looked at the male leafeon and saw his reaction, Clare began to ease up a little as her nose stopped smoking and her fur returned to normal.  \"Why did you sneak up on me like that?\", she asked him in an irritated tone as the male continued to remain in a submissive posture, still fearful of what she might do to him.\n\n\"I couldn't help it...I saw your heat and since you entered my territory...I figured you would be willing to let me mate with you\", he answered nervously while continuing to tuck his tail between his legs as it covered his still erect penis.  Even though she had scared the daylights out of him, his sexual desires for her remained very strong.\n\nClare could tell from his reaction that he was acting out of instinct and knew what her condition could do to males all too well.  As such, she calmed down and let out a sigh.  \"I'm not in heat\", she calmly explained to the leafeon as he looked at her curiously as what he experienced seemed to dictate otherwise.\n\n\"But, I could see it and taste it when I licked you...How could you not be in heat?\", the male asked Clare curiously as she sighed again and turned around to bat at a dandelion with her front paw, unintentionally giving the male another good look at her swollen vulva.\n\n\"It's because I didn't get mated when I was in heat...it happened last year too.  If I don't get mated when I'm in heat, I'll stay like this all year long and...well, it can give males like you the false impression that I'm ready to have pups\", she explained calmly as the male heard the words while his eyes continued to focus on Clare's swollen vulva as he slowly got up and uncovered his shaft, letting it hang low and drip with precum as he still wanted to mate with her.\n\n\"Well...don't you want to have pups of your own?\", he asked her softly as he remained behind her a little bit, trying not to push his luck even as his shaft throbbed with desire.\n\n\"I do...I wanted to have pups this past mating season, but the one I wanted to mate with found a mate of his own and now I'm all alone\", Clare responded as the male carefully approached her from behind and placed one paw on her hindquarters.\n\n\"You're not alone right now...I'm right here and I don't have a mate of my own.  In fact, I just became a leafeon a few weeks ago, after our mating season ended.  Since then, I figured I'd have to wait until next year to find a mate of my own, but then you entered my territory and I sensed your heat and figured you were receptive\", he explained calmly to Clare as she looked back at him while feeling the soft touch of his paw on her hindquarters as it appeared she started to warm up to him a bit.\n\nShe looked back towards him and saw his red canine cock fully unsheathed and dripping with his precum as she thought about her desires and the feeling within her vaginal passage.  Last year when she met a male who became attracted to her, she had an enjoyable time with him mating repeatedly as she felt his dolphin-like cock probe her insides and deliver his seed to her reproductive tract.  She fell in love with him to the point where she wanted to have his pups, only to have those dreams dashed by the female vaporeon who moved in on her mate during the spring.\n\nHowever, this male was different.  He was a leafeon and he had a normal canine penis.  Clare knew instinctively that if a male with a penis like that were to knot and tie her that he would be devoted to her and their future offspring.  From his words, Clare figured that he might've wanted her as his mate, and was a bit curious to test that thinking out.\n\n\"Well, since I did lure you out with my \"heat\" and all, I'll give you what you came for.  However, I want you to make sure you decide that you really want to be mated to me before you stick that knot of yours inside.  I've had my heart broken once before, and I don't want it to happen again\", Clare explained before she relaxed, bent over so she could raise her rump and tail to the male and let him climb onto her.\n\nHis decision was made long before Clare mentioned this.  He was more than willing to devote himself to a female who wanted to mate and Clare's invitation was plenty to stimulate the male into mounting her.  His front legs clutched onto her hips as he pulled himself over her back and introduced the pointed tip of his shaft to the swollen lips of Clare's vulva.  He poked and prodded her for a few moments while giving gentle thrusts, trying to put his tip against her opening and let it slide into her hot flareon hole.\n\nAt the same time, vines grew from his body, slowly wrapping around Clare from the underside as he got an even firmer grip on her.  His vines held her tightly enough to give him the extra grip but were gentle enough not to cause her discomfort.  Then, a few seconds later, his tip found its target, pushing into the heat of the female flareon as his leafeon eyes gleefully lit up.\n\nShe felt incredibly hot to him, in addition to being quite tight around his length as he introduced it to her canal.  Her walls provided plenty of juices for his length to pass through easily as Clare allowed the male to mate with her and decide for himself how far he was willing to go.  However, it wouldn't take long for the male to make his decision.\n\nHe pushed all the way into Clare right away, knot and all as he began to rapidly thrust while holding her hips tightly.  He felt really good mating with the flareon fem and this feeling only helped to strengthen his feelings towards her as precum started spurting into Clare's vaginal passage.  Although she might not have been in heat, he was treating her as if she was, wanting to do a good job in mating with her and later prove his devotion to her by being a good father to their offspring.  For now, he was just pretended that her heat was real, acting the same way he would as if Clare had eggs ready for him to fertilize.\n\nClare could feel the knot moving in and out of her as he thrusted rapidly, feeling it slowly becoming larger with each passage through as the male tightened his grip around her a bit and moved up onto her body a little more.  She knew from this gesture that he wanted to be with her and began to feel a little happier about having the throbbing leafeon cock rubbing vigorously against her folds.  As such, her body reacted favorably towards the male, drawing tighter around his penis as she felt him move while her mouth released small flames of passion from the feeling of being mated.  Furthermore, she pushed back against him, trying to make sure he remained very deep inside her as the precum kept hitting the opening to her uterus, reacting the same way that she would as if she were trying to have eevee pups.\n\nNaturally, with Clare's inviting moves, he kept going strong with her, thrusting through her hot flareon folds as he felt them massage and grip his length as he soon began to shift from side-to-side while he was thrusting.  Within a few moments, his pattern changed from in-and-out movements to all forward movements as he pushed his knot into Clare to stay, letting the heat of her body coax it to become bigger.  At the same time, Clare's vaginal walls focused around the growing bulb, holding it tighter as it got bigger while she felt massive pulsations in it and the rest of his cock.  Inside his balls, he felt a strong churning within as they rapidly prepared a batch of his cream for her.  The aroma of her psuedoheat had triggered his body to make new sperm rapidly as his nuts became swollen from the fresh batch of seed he just made exclusively for Clare.\n\nWith his knot growing and the bond between him and Clare growing tighter by the second, he kept rocking from side-to-side as he was enjoying her heat, panting happily to the feeling around his leafeon cock.  He wanted to inseminate Clare, to shoot his new seed into her womb and become locked to her in the typical canine bond.  He kept moving like this for a few moments until the feeling of Clare's vagina had caused him to reach his breaking point.  While he clutched Clare's hips and body, he collapsed on top of his back with delight as his cock pulsated strongly from knot to tip.  Strong blasts of leafeon sperm were being launched into Clare's vagina while he was on her back, softly licking her with his tongue.\n\nClare murred with delight to what she felt.  Relative to her own body temperature, his cream felt cool to the touch, but very soothing and creamy as it stuck to her insides on contact.  His tadpoles were swimming around inside her as they were being put into her canal, tickling against her walls and adding to the overall pleasant feeling of being mated.  Another small flame came from her mouth during this time that her leafeon mate was able to see with his eyes.  It was a flame that curled into the shape of a heart, indicating that Clare had found a new love in her life.\n\nThe male leafeon felt proud of this, continuing to inseminate Clare at his own pace while feeling the tight grip of her walls around his now full-size knot.  She was very attractive in his eyes and the feeling of being able to mate with and inseminate Clare brought the male a lot of joy and happiness.  However, the bond between them was only beginning to form.\n\nAs his initial climax slowed to periodic spurts of cum, his vines released their grip on Clare while his front paws eased around her hips.  Clare knew instinctively what was going to happen and looked behind her at the happy male.  \"Do it sweetie...turn the tie with me\", Clare coaxed sweetly, reaching out with her hot tongue to touch his nose lightly.\n\nThe touch made his nose tingle briefly as the eager male was more than happy to give into Clare's demand, dismounting her within a few moments as they remained stuck together by their genitals.  There they stood, tied together like all of their canine cousins during mating, as the male kept slowly inseminating Clare, putting more of his cream deep into her tract.  Each time she felt a spurt, her walls convulsed around him a little and warmed, helping to milk her new partner out of even more of his sperm.  The only regret Clare had over this entire situation was that she would not get pregnant from him this time around.  However, with a new mate of her own, she felt more confident that once winter came around again, she'd finally have the chance to breed.\n\nThey remained tied together in the flower field for well over a half-hour as the male leisurely drained his balls into Clare, making sure he put as much into her as possible while their bodies were locked in their bond.  Gradually, his sex drive began to taper off as his knot began to shrink while her walls responded by easing its grip on him.  He slowly felt the grip loosen while the tie continued for a few more moments, even after he stopped filling her, until he finally popped out of her still swollen vulva.\n\nOnce the knot was free, the rest of his maleness quickly followed as it left Clare with a creamy white filling oozing out of her swollen black vulva.  Clare felt the leftovers on her vulva and soon began to lick them off in an attempt to clean herself on the outside.  However, when she tasted his seed, her nose tingled as she felt a taste she did not expect him to have.  His cum had a sweet flavor to it, not unlike that of maple syrup, as she gleefully licked it off of her vulva and then turned towards him, still wanting more.\n\nShe playfully pounced on him, knocking him down to his back as she looked at his semi-erect leafeon cock, which still had his cream on parts of it as she used her hot tongue to lick it off.  She swallowed as much of it as she could, savoring the flavor of his sticky \"sap\" as the male felt her tongue against his length and responded by staying unsheathed for her.  Then, when she was done, she backed off from him, letting him get back on all fours as she stood beside him, licking the side of his face with her tongue.  Afterwards, they walked together into the grove of trees, heading back towards the area where his den was.\n\nFor the rest of the summer, Clare's life was once again filled with lots of mating as her psuedoheat made her leafeon mate want to mount her on a regular basis.  She was tied to him often, receiving gobs of his cream within her reproductive tract each time as the bond between them grew stronger as the warm months progressed.  She also had plenty of opportunities to taste his \"sap\", still enjoying the sweet taste of it in her mouth each time she licked some off of herself or his shaft.  The happy times for the couple continued until late September as things began to change.\n\nThe grove of trees was beginning to undergo its seasonal transformation as it's trees were turning all sorts of vivid yellow, orange, and red colors, mixed in with the leaves that were still green.  It would still be a few more weeks before they fell off and were bare again, but the signs of the approaching winter were beginning to show.  However, that was not the only change that took place.\n\nOne morning as Clare came out of the den she shared with the male leafeon, she was quick to bask in the mild late September sun as she looked at all the pretty colors amongst the trees.  She knew that winter was not so far away now and her psuedoheat would eventually become real as she looked forward to having reproductive sex with her leafeon mate.  As it had been all summer long, her vulva was still hot and swollen, twitching to feel her mate inside of it as they took advantage of one of the few remaining nice days to mate.\n\nHowever, Clare noticed that something was unusual fairly quickly.  Normally, they'd come out of the den together and even if she came out before him he'd follow close behind.  But, he hadn't come out of the den and she was starting to get worried.  She went over to the opening of the den and called for her mate, hearing him answer a few seconds later as she stood by the entrance and waited for him.  When he finally came out, she was in for a surprise.\n\nFirst of all, the normally energetic male suddenly seemed slower and more sluggish in nature.  However, the bigger change was in the color of his leaflike ears and tail.  They had changed into a vivid red as he seemed to struggle to stand on all fours and felt tired as he came out, yawning for a second.  Clare had seen him tired before and figured he just needed some motivation to get going once again as she turned around so her rump was facing towards him and presented her swollen vulva to him, letting her psuedoheat arouse him again.\n\nHe detected her psuedoheat and his tip did peek out of his sheath, but not going any further than that as he yawned again.  \"Not now honey...I'm too tired for sex\", he answered sleepily as Clare immediately turned around in concern, coming over to her mate as she licked his face.\n\n\"What's the matter honey...why have your ears and tail turned red and why do you feel so tired all of a sudden?\", she asked calmly as he yawned again and sat down on the ground.\n\n\"It's getting close to winter, my leaflike parts are losing their chlorophyll, just like the leaves on the trees.  Soon, I'll have to go into hibernation for the winter, to rest until the chlorophyll returns in March\", he explained softly as Clare's ears focused on one word he mentioned in particular.\n\n\"HIBERNATION?!!  NOT YOU TOO!!!\", she exclaimed as her eyes began to water while he yawned again.\n\n\"Yes, my kind sleeps through the winter and mates in the spring.  However, once I wake up, I'll be able to tend to you and finally start our family\", he answered as he was unaware of flareon mating season.\n\n\"But...my kind mates during the winter, like most foxes do!!!\", Clare exclaimed while crying for a moment before she started to growl a bit and bear her teeth.  \"ARE YOU TELLING ME THAT I'VE LET YOU MATE WITH ME FOR NOTHING?!!\", she suddenly shouted at him with her nostrils smoking and her mouth beginning to give of flames.\n\nThis woke the leafeon male right up as he realized he had pissed off Clare and was now in deep trouble.  He tried to sweet talk Clare into calming down, cautiously backing away from the angry flareon.  However, Clare would have nothing of the sort...this was the second time she had her heart broken and she was pissed!\n\nShe launched a fireball at him, which he was just barely able to dodge given his sleepy state.  However, Clare had much more energy right now than he did and it was only a matter of time before she hit him with another fireball, knocking him out.  She decided she would let him live, just burning him to the point where he would be taught a lesson before she began to cry again as she ran out of the woods.\n\nHowever, Clare didn't really pay attention to where she was going this time and ran into something a short distance away.  Then, she heard the voice of a young adult human female.  \"You have to be careful sweetie, you ran right into me\", the human female calmly told Clare softly as the flareon fem looked up and saw the human female above her.  Clare could tell from the tone of her voice that the human was friendly towards her and allowed the human female to touch her cheek.\n\n\"You're such a cutie, I'd like to have you around the house, and I'm sure Max would love to have a big sister to play with\", the human female commented as Clare cocked her head curiously.\n\nClare wasn't sure what to do.  On one hand, the human female was nice to her and after two unsuccessful mating seasons, she was getting sick and tired of living the wild life.  However, this was her home, she wasn't completely sure if she could leave it.  However, the human female eventually won Clare over with a bit of beef jerky and decided that if she couldn't find a mate of her own, at least living with the human female would give her some more permanent company.  As such, Clare leaped into her arms, licked her face sweetly with her hot tongue and murred, trying to be affectionate to her new friend as the human female carried Clare in her arms out of the forest as she headed for her home.\n\nTo be continued...",
  "writing_bbcode_parsed": "<span style='word-wrap: break-word;'>The Next Four Seasons (Summer)<br />(M Leafeon + F Flareon)<br /><br />NOTE: This is a follow-up story to the corresponding Summer story of the first Four Seasons series.&nbsp;&nbsp;If you aren&#039;t familiar with some of the details provided early on in the story, please go read that first.<br /><br />The past winter was difficult for Clare to deal with.&nbsp;&nbsp;As was the case during the previous winter, she came into true heat around late January as her swollen vulva pulsed with life and was eager to be bred.&nbsp;&nbsp;She wanted to have eevee pups, to feel them against her soft and warm flareon body and to feel their sweet and tiny mouths attached to her nipples while they filled their little bellies with her creamy milk.&nbsp;&nbsp;Of course, in order to make this dream a reality, she&#039;d have to be mated first and while her body was screaming for sex, her mind had different ideas.<br /><br />During mating season, Clare could only think about the male vaporeon she &quot;played&quot; with the previous summer.&nbsp;&nbsp;She fell in love with him and she knew that he had loved her, so much so that she really wanted to bear his offspring.&nbsp;&nbsp;However, during the winter, he was deep in hibernation in his den on his island, sleeping through the cold of the winter until the weather warmed up in the spring.&nbsp;&nbsp;Deep down, she knew that there was little chance of being bred by him, even though they had mated numerous times in the past.&nbsp;&nbsp;However, her heart was still set on having his babies and as such, she decided not to go out and mate, hoping that in some way she could come back to him and let his sperm fertilize her eggs.<br /><br />The winter and Clare&#039;s heat continued for about two more months before Spring finally arrived in late March.&nbsp;&nbsp;The snow that was on the ground was rapidly melting away and Clare went back to the pond where she met her playmate.&nbsp;&nbsp;Surprisingly, she was still in heat and able to release eggs from her ovaries for a little while longer and now that winter was over, she hoped that he&#039;d be awake and somehow they could reproduce together.&nbsp;&nbsp;However, when Clare made it to his pond, it was still partially ice-covered as she took one step on the icy surface and had her paw break through the ice, touching the chilly water underneath.<br /><br />She pulled her paw out and licked it with her warm tongue to warm it back up while looking to the island where her vaporeon playmate lived.&nbsp;&nbsp;He never came out of his den, much to her disappointment as her ears dropped down low and she whimpered.&nbsp;&nbsp;It appeared that he was still hibernating for a little longer and as such, she&#039;d likely be out of heat by the time he finally woke up.&nbsp;&nbsp;Nevertheless, she still loved him and wasn&#039;t going to give up on him just yet.&nbsp;&nbsp;&quot;I&#039;ll come back later on once he&#039;s awake and try my luck then&quot;, she thought to herself as she left to head back to her own den to rest for a while.<br /><br />A few more months passed until it was late in June.&nbsp;&nbsp;By now, the signs of the past winter were long gone and many other mated pairs had families of their own to look after.&nbsp;&nbsp;It was well into the 80&#039;s outside now and the pond was completely free of ice and had warmed a bit since early in the spring.&nbsp;&nbsp;Clare was out of heat by now, but like the past year, her vulva remained swollen in a state of psuedoheat, still acting as if she were capable to releasing eggs.&nbsp;&nbsp;She figured that her playmate was awake now and decided that now was the time that she should go back and get reacquainted with him.<br /><br />She made her way back to the open pond and started to splash one of her front paws in the water, trying to get his attention and to let him know that she was back for him.&nbsp;&nbsp;Within moments, the head of a vaporeon appeared from the island den.&nbsp;&nbsp;However, this vaporeon looked different from the male she played with last summer.&nbsp;&nbsp;This became even more evident as the vaporeon came completely out of the den, turned towards Clare and growled.&nbsp;&nbsp;From where she was, Clare was able to see that this vaporeon had eight swollen teats on its belly, indicating that they were full of milk and giving her a hint to the vaporeon&#039;s gender.&nbsp;&nbsp;To her surprise, this was a female vaporeon...apparently, her male playmate found a female of his own kind during the spring and had pups with her.<br /><br />To make matters worse for Clare, the female vaporeon sensed Clare&#039;s psuedoheat and figured that she was after her mate.&nbsp;&nbsp;The vaporeon female figured she couldn&#039;t let Clare have the male who bred her so she quickly responded by force, using her vaporeon abilities to send a powerful water blast out of her mouth in Clare&#039;s direction.&nbsp;&nbsp;Clare was fast enough to dodge the attack, having the water blast splash up against the shore where she was a second before as the vaporeon female shot at Clare again.&nbsp;&nbsp;Once again, Clare was just barely fast enough to avoid getting hit as she decided she only had one option...and that was to run away and hope the vaporeon female wouldn&#039;t follow her.<br /><br />Fortunately for Clare, the female vaporeon had several young eevees to care for inside the den and couldn&#039;t pursue Clare even if she wanted to.&nbsp;&nbsp;Besides, after the second water blast, the female vaporeon figured that her point was made, he was her mate now and no other female was going to take him away from her.&nbsp;&nbsp;As such the vaporeon female retreated back into the den to return to her offspring and mate as Clare ran into a nearby grove of trees and soon arrived in the middle of a field of flowers amongst them.<br /><br />She then put her front paws over her face and began to cry a bit.&nbsp;&nbsp;She thought back to the previous summer to how they first met and how he showed her that he was in love with her, having taken his dolphin-like vaporeon cock into her fiery flareon vagina a number of times.&nbsp;&nbsp;Although she couldn&#039;t fault him for wanting a mate he could actually breed with, she was still disappointed that she would never be able to receive his sperm while she was in heat, which made her feel even worse.<br /><br />As she continued to feel bad about what had happened, her rear end remained raised up as only the upper part of her body was kneeling down while she had her face covered with her front paws.&nbsp;&nbsp;This allowed anyone who might&#039;ve seen her to be able to see her swollen vulva and it turned out that Clare wasn&#039;t alone in the flower field for long.<br /><br />A few moments after Clare arrived, a male leafeon appeared at the edge of the flower field, not too far away from Clare.&nbsp;&nbsp;This was the territory he had dug his own den underneath and old fallen tree and when he heard noises in the woods it aroused his suspicion.&nbsp;&nbsp;He had curiously wandered into the flower field to see what had entered his territory and soon saw Clare...from the backside.&nbsp;&nbsp;His eyes immediately focused on the swollen vulva of the female flareon as now something else of his was becoming aroused.&nbsp;&nbsp;Much like the vaporeon the previous summer, the male leafeon couldn&#039;t figure out why Clare was in heat this late in the season...but if she wanted to be mated, he was more than willing to give her what she wanted.<br /><br />He came up behind her slowly as Clare continued to feel depressed, not noticing the male approaching from behind as he continued to get excited for the female flareon.&nbsp;&nbsp;His red canine cock soon became fully exposed while a few drips of precum landed on the ground as he walked, showing that he was in full arousal and ready to mount Clare as soon as he had the chance.&nbsp;&nbsp;But before he would do so, he wanted to make sure that she was in the mood to mate and he did so by reaching his tongue out towards her as soon as he was within reach and licking at her swollen vulva.&nbsp;&nbsp;The taste made his erection twitch as it certainly tasted like she was in heat, making more precum drip from his pointed tip as he was beginning to get the urge to climb up on top of the female flareon.<br /><br />However, Clare quickly noticed that she was being licked from behind and in her current emotional state, she felt a bit differently about it.&nbsp;&nbsp;She quickly sprang to all fours again, turned a 180 and faced the male leafeon with her collar bristled and smoke coming out of her nose.&nbsp;&nbsp;When he noticed her sudden change in behavior, the male leafeon did the only thing he could think of...tuck his tail between his hind legs and whimper like a puppy.&nbsp;&nbsp;He knew he was outmatched by Clare and could easily cause significant injury to him if she so desired, all he could do was beg for mercy and hope she&#039;d let him go without hurting him.<br /><br />As she looked at the male leafeon and saw his reaction, Clare began to ease up a little as her nose stopped smoking and her fur returned to normal.&nbsp;&nbsp;&quot;Why did you sneak up on me like that?&quot;, she asked him in an irritated tone as the male continued to remain in a submissive posture, still fearful of what she might do to him.<br /><br />&quot;I couldn&#039;t help it...I saw your heat and since you entered my territory...I figured you would be willing to let me mate with you&quot;, he answered nervously while continuing to tuck his tail between his legs as it covered his still erect penis.&nbsp;&nbsp;Even though she had scared the daylights out of him, his sexual desires for her remained very strong.<br /><br />Clare could tell from his reaction that he was acting out of instinct and knew what her condition could do to males all too well.&nbsp;&nbsp;As such, she calmed down and let out a sigh.&nbsp;&nbsp;&quot;I&#039;m not in heat&quot;, she calmly explained to the leafeon as he looked at her curiously as what he experienced seemed to dictate otherwise.<br /><br />&quot;But, I could see it and taste it when I licked you...How could you not be in heat?&quot;, the male asked Clare curiously as she sighed again and turned around to bat at a dandelion with her front paw, unintentionally giving the male another good look at her swollen vulva.<br /><br />&quot;It&#039;s because I didn&#039;t get mated when I was in heat...it happened last year too.&nbsp;&nbsp;If I don&#039;t get mated when I&#039;m in heat, I&#039;ll stay like this all year long and...well, it can give males like you the false impression that I&#039;m ready to have pups&quot;, she explained calmly as the male heard the words while his eyes continued to focus on Clare&#039;s swollen vulva as he slowly got up and uncovered his shaft, letting it hang low and drip with precum as he still wanted to mate with her.<br /><br />&quot;Well...don&#039;t you want to have pups of your own?&quot;, he asked her softly as he remained behind her a little bit, trying not to push his luck even as his shaft throbbed with desire.<br /><br />&quot;I do...I wanted to have pups this past mating season, but the one I wanted to mate with found a mate of his own and now I&#039;m all alone&quot;, Clare responded as the male carefully approached her from behind and placed one paw on her hindquarters.<br /><br />&quot;You&#039;re not alone right now...I&#039;m right here and I don&#039;t have a mate of my own.&nbsp;&nbsp;In fact, I just became a leafeon a few weeks ago, after our mating season ended.&nbsp;&nbsp;Since then, I figured I&#039;d have to wait until next year to find a mate of my own, but then you entered my territory and I sensed your heat and figured you were receptive&quot;, he explained calmly to Clare as she looked back at him while feeling the soft touch of his paw on her hindquarters as it appeared she started to warm up to him a bit.<br /><br />She looked back towards him and saw his red canine cock fully unsheathed and dripping with his precum as she thought about her desires and the feeling within her vaginal passage.&nbsp;&nbsp;Last year when she met a male who became attracted to her, she had an enjoyable time with him mating repeatedly as she felt his dolphin-like cock probe her insides and deliver his seed to her reproductive tract.&nbsp;&nbsp;She fell in love with him to the point where she wanted to have his pups, only to have those dreams dashed by the female vaporeon who moved in on her mate during the spring.<br /><br />However, this male was different.&nbsp;&nbsp;He was a leafeon and he had a normal canine penis.&nbsp;&nbsp;Clare knew instinctively that if a male with a penis like that were to knot and tie her that he would be devoted to her and their future offspring.&nbsp;&nbsp;From his words, Clare figured that he might&#039;ve wanted her as his mate, and was a bit curious to test that thinking out.<br /><br />&quot;Well, since I did lure you out with my &quot;heat&quot; and all, I&#039;ll give you what you came for.&nbsp;&nbsp;However, I want you to make sure you decide that you really want to be mated to me before you stick that knot of yours inside.&nbsp;&nbsp;I&#039;ve had my heart broken once before, and I don&#039;t want it to happen again&quot;, Clare explained before she relaxed, bent over so she could raise her rump and tail to the male and let him climb onto her.<br /><br />His decision was made long before Clare mentioned this.&nbsp;&nbsp;He was more than willing to devote himself to a female who wanted to mate and Clare&#039;s invitation was plenty to stimulate the male into mounting her.&nbsp;&nbsp;His front legs clutched onto her hips as he pulled himself over her back and introduced the pointed tip of his shaft to the swollen lips of Clare&#039;s vulva.&nbsp;&nbsp;He poked and prodded her for a few moments while giving gentle thrusts, trying to put his tip against her opening and let it slide into her hot flareon hole.<br /><br />At the same time, vines grew from his body, slowly wrapping around Clare from the underside as he got an even firmer grip on her.&nbsp;&nbsp;His vines held her tightly enough to give him the extra grip but were gentle enough not to cause her discomfort.&nbsp;&nbsp;Then, a few seconds later, his tip found its target, pushing into the heat of the female flareon as his leafeon eyes gleefully lit up.<br /><br />She felt incredibly hot to him, in addition to being quite tight around his length as he introduced it to her canal.&nbsp;&nbsp;Her walls provided plenty of juices for his length to pass through easily as Clare allowed the male to mate with her and decide for himself how far he was willing to go.&nbsp;&nbsp;However, it wouldn&#039;t take long for the male to make his decision.<br /><br />He pushed all the way into Clare right away, knot and all as he began to rapidly thrust while holding her hips tightly.&nbsp;&nbsp;He felt really good mating with the flareon fem and this feeling only helped to strengthen his feelings towards her as precum started spurting into Clare&#039;s vaginal passage.&nbsp;&nbsp;Although she might not have been in heat, he was treating her as if she was, wanting to do a good job in mating with her and later prove his devotion to her by being a good father to their offspring.&nbsp;&nbsp;For now, he was just pretended that her heat was real, acting the same way he would as if Clare had eggs ready for him to fertilize.<br /><br />Clare could feel the knot moving in and out of her as he thrusted rapidly, feeling it slowly becoming larger with each passage through as the male tightened his grip around her a bit and moved up onto her body a little more.&nbsp;&nbsp;She knew from this gesture that he wanted to be with her and began to feel a little happier about having the throbbing leafeon cock rubbing vigorously against her folds.&nbsp;&nbsp;As such, her body reacted favorably towards the male, drawing tighter around his penis as she felt him move while her mouth released small flames of passion from the feeling of being mated.&nbsp;&nbsp;Furthermore, she pushed back against him, trying to make sure he remained very deep inside her as the precum kept hitting the opening to her uterus, reacting the same way that she would as if she were trying to have eevee pups.<br /><br />Naturally, with Clare&#039;s inviting moves, he kept going strong with her, thrusting through her hot flareon folds as he felt them massage and grip his length as he soon began to shift from side-to-side while he was thrusting.&nbsp;&nbsp;Within a few moments, his pattern changed from in-and-out movements to all forward movements as he pushed his knot into Clare to stay, letting the heat of her body coax it to become bigger.&nbsp;&nbsp;At the same time, Clare&#039;s vaginal walls focused around the growing bulb, holding it tighter as it got bigger while she felt massive pulsations in it and the rest of his cock.&nbsp;&nbsp;Inside his balls, he felt a strong churning within as they rapidly prepared a batch of his cream for her.&nbsp;&nbsp;The aroma of her psuedoheat had triggered his body to make new sperm rapidly as his nuts became swollen from the fresh batch of seed he just made exclusively for Clare.<br /><br />With his knot growing and the bond between him and Clare growing tighter by the second, he kept rocking from side-to-side as he was enjoying her heat, panting happily to the feeling around his leafeon cock.&nbsp;&nbsp;He wanted to inseminate Clare, to shoot his new seed into her womb and become locked to her in the typical canine bond.&nbsp;&nbsp;He kept moving like this for a few moments until the feeling of Clare&#039;s vagina had caused him to reach his breaking point.&nbsp;&nbsp;While he clutched Clare&#039;s hips and body, he collapsed on top of his back with delight as his cock pulsated strongly from knot to tip.&nbsp;&nbsp;Strong blasts of leafeon sperm were being launched into Clare&#039;s vagina while he was on her back, softly licking her with his tongue.<br /><br />Clare murred with delight to what she felt.&nbsp;&nbsp;Relative to her own body temperature, his cream felt cool to the touch, but very soothing and creamy as it stuck to her insides on contact.&nbsp;&nbsp;His tadpoles were swimming around inside her as they were being put into her canal, tickling against her walls and adding to the overall pleasant feeling of being mated.&nbsp;&nbsp;Another small flame came from her mouth during this time that her leafeon mate was able to see with his eyes.&nbsp;&nbsp;It was a flame that curled into the shape of a heart, indicating that Clare had found a new love in her life.<br /><br />The male leafeon felt proud of this, continuing to inseminate Clare at his own pace while feeling the tight grip of her walls around his now full-size knot.&nbsp;&nbsp;She was very attractive in his eyes and the feeling of being able to mate with and inseminate Clare brought the male a lot of joy and happiness.&nbsp;&nbsp;However, the bond between them was only beginning to form.<br /><br />As his initial climax slowed to periodic spurts of cum, his vines released their grip on Clare while his front paws eased around her hips.&nbsp;&nbsp;Clare knew instinctively what was going to happen and looked behind her at the happy male.&nbsp;&nbsp;&quot;Do it sweetie...turn the tie with me&quot;, Clare coaxed sweetly, reaching out with her hot tongue to touch his nose lightly.<br /><br />The touch made his nose tingle briefly as the eager male was more than happy to give into Clare&#039;s demand, dismounting her within a few moments as they remained stuck together by their genitals.&nbsp;&nbsp;There they stood, tied together like all of their canine cousins during mating, as the male kept slowly inseminating Clare, putting more of his cream deep into her tract.&nbsp;&nbsp;Each time she felt a spurt, her walls convulsed around him a little and warmed, helping to milk her new partner out of even more of his sperm.&nbsp;&nbsp;The only regret Clare had over this entire situation was that she would not get pregnant from him this time around.&nbsp;&nbsp;However, with a new mate of her own, she felt more confident that once winter came around again, she&#039;d finally have the chance to breed.<br /><br />They remained tied together in the flower field for well over a half-hour as the male leisurely drained his balls into Clare, making sure he put as much into her as possible while their bodies were locked in their bond.&nbsp;&nbsp;Gradually, his sex drive began to taper off as his knot began to shrink while her walls responded by easing its grip on him.&nbsp;&nbsp;He slowly felt the grip loosen while the tie continued for a few more moments, even after he stopped filling her, until he finally popped out of her still swollen vulva.<br /><br />Once the knot was free, the rest of his maleness quickly followed as it left Clare with a creamy white filling oozing out of her swollen black vulva.&nbsp;&nbsp;Clare felt the leftovers on her vulva and soon began to lick them off in an attempt to clean herself on the outside.&nbsp;&nbsp;However, when she tasted his seed, her nose tingled as she felt a taste she did not expect him to have.&nbsp;&nbsp;His cum had a sweet flavor to it, not unlike that of maple syrup, as she gleefully licked it off of her vulva and then turned towards him, still wanting more.<br /><br />She playfully pounced on him, knocking him down to his back as she looked at his semi-erect leafeon cock, which still had his cream on parts of it as she used her hot tongue to lick it off.&nbsp;&nbsp;She swallowed as much of it as she could, savoring the flavor of his sticky &quot;sap&quot; as the male felt her tongue against his length and responded by staying unsheathed for her.&nbsp;&nbsp;Then, when she was done, she backed off from him, letting him get back on all fours as she stood beside him, licking the side of his face with her tongue.&nbsp;&nbsp;Afterwards, they walked together into the grove of trees, heading back towards the area where his den was.<br /><br />For the rest of the summer, Clare&#039;s life was once again filled with lots of mating as her psuedoheat made her leafeon mate want to mount her on a regular basis.&nbsp;&nbsp;She was tied to him often, receiving gobs of his cream within her reproductive tract each time as the bond between them grew stronger as the warm months progressed.&nbsp;&nbsp;She also had plenty of opportunities to taste his &quot;sap&quot;, still enjoying the sweet taste of it in her mouth each time she licked some off of herself or his shaft.&nbsp;&nbsp;The happy times for the couple continued until late September as things began to change.<br /><br />The grove of trees was beginning to undergo its seasonal transformation as it&#039;s trees were turning all sorts of vivid yellow, orange, and red colors, mixed in with the leaves that were still green.&nbsp;&nbsp;It would still be a few more weeks before they fell off and were bare again, but the signs of the approaching winter were beginning to show.&nbsp;&nbsp;However, that was not the only change that took place.<br /><br />One morning as Clare came out of the den she shared with the male leafeon, she was quick to bask in the mild late September sun as she looked at all the pretty colors amongst the trees.&nbsp;&nbsp;She knew that winter was not so far away now and her psuedoheat would eventually become real as she looked forward to having reproductive sex with her leafeon mate.&nbsp;&nbsp;As it had been all summer long, her vulva was still hot and swollen, twitching to feel her mate inside of it as they took advantage of one of the few remaining nice days to mate.<br /><br />However, Clare noticed that something was unusual fairly quickly.&nbsp;&nbsp;Normally, they&#039;d come out of the den together and even if she came out before him he&#039;d follow close behind.&nbsp;&nbsp;But, he hadn&#039;t come out of the den and she was starting to get worried.&nbsp;&nbsp;She went over to the opening of the den and called for her mate, hearing him answer a few seconds later as she stood by the entrance and waited for him.&nbsp;&nbsp;When he finally came out, she was in for a surprise.<br /><br />First of all, the normally energetic male suddenly seemed slower and more sluggish in nature.&nbsp;&nbsp;However, the bigger change was in the color of his leaflike ears and tail.&nbsp;&nbsp;They had changed into a vivid red as he seemed to struggle to stand on all fours and felt tired as he came out, yawning for a second.&nbsp;&nbsp;Clare had seen him tired before and figured he just needed some motivation to get going once again as she turned around so her rump was facing towards him and presented her swollen vulva to him, letting her psuedoheat arouse him again.<br /><br />He detected her psuedoheat and his tip did peek out of his sheath, but not going any further than that as he yawned again.&nbsp;&nbsp;&quot;Not now honey...I&#039;m too tired for sex&quot;, he answered sleepily as Clare immediately turned around in concern, coming over to her mate as she licked his face.<br /><br />&quot;What&#039;s the matter honey...why have your ears and tail turned red and why do you feel so tired all of a sudden?&quot;, she asked calmly as he yawned again and sat down on the ground.<br /><br />&quot;It&#039;s getting close to winter, my leaflike parts are losing their chlorophyll, just like the leaves on the trees.&nbsp;&nbsp;Soon, I&#039;ll have to go into hibernation for the winter, to rest until the chlorophyll returns in March&quot;, he explained softly as Clare&#039;s ears focused on one word he mentioned in particular.<br /><br />&quot;HIBERNATION?!!&nbsp;&nbsp;NOT YOU TOO!!!&quot;, she exclaimed as her eyes began to water while he yawned again.<br /><br />&quot;Yes, my kind sleeps through the winter and mates in the spring.&nbsp;&nbsp;However, once I wake up, I&#039;ll be able to tend to you and finally start our family&quot;, he answered as he was unaware of flareon mating season.<br /><br />&quot;But...my kind mates during the winter, like most foxes do!!!&quot;, Clare exclaimed while crying for a moment before she started to growl a bit and bear her teeth.&nbsp;&nbsp;&quot;ARE YOU TELLING ME THAT I&#039;VE LET YOU MATE WITH ME FOR NOTHING?!!&quot;, she suddenly shouted at him with her nostrils smoking and her mouth beginning to give of flames.<br /><br />This woke the leafeon male right up as he realized he had pissed off Clare and was now in deep trouble.&nbsp;&nbsp;He tried to sweet talk Clare into calming down, cautiously backing away from the angry flareon.&nbsp;&nbsp;However, Clare would have nothing of the sort...this was the second time she had her heart broken and she was pissed!<br /><br />She launched a fireball at him, which he was just barely able to dodge given his sleepy state.&nbsp;&nbsp;However, Clare had much more energy right now than he did and it was only a matter of time before she hit him with another fireball, knocking him out.&nbsp;&nbsp;She decided she would let him live, just burning him to the point where he would be taught a lesson before she began to cry again as she ran out of the woods.<br /><br />However, Clare didn&#039;t really pay attention to where she was going this time and ran into something a short distance away.&nbsp;&nbsp;Then, she heard the voice of a young adult human female.&nbsp;&nbsp;&quot;You have to be careful sweetie, you ran right into me&quot;, the human female calmly told Clare softly as the flareon fem looked up and saw the human female above her.&nbsp;&nbsp;Clare could tell from the tone of her voice that the human was friendly towards her and allowed the human female to touch her cheek.<br /><br />&quot;You&#039;re such a cutie, I&#039;d like to have you around the house, and I&#039;m sure Max would love to have a big sister to play with&quot;, the human female commented as Clare cocked her head curiously.<br /><br />Clare wasn&#039;t sure what to do.&nbsp;&nbsp;On one hand, the human female was nice to her and after two unsuccessful mating seasons, she was getting sick and tired of living the wild life.&nbsp;&nbsp;However, this was her home, she wasn&#039;t completely sure if she could leave it.&nbsp;&nbsp;However, the human female eventually won Clare over with a bit of beef jerky and decided that if she couldn&#039;t find a mate of her own, at least living with the human female would give her some more permanent company.&nbsp;&nbsp;As such, Clare leaped into her arms, licked her face sweetly with her hot tongue and murred, trying to be affectionate to her new friend as the human female carried Clare in her arms out of the forest as she headed for her home.<br /><br />To be continued...</span>",
