"Anything else?" asked the flight attendant.

Briar and I shook our heads, so she left us alone. I sipped at my orange juice and nibbled on the pretzels. Briar seemed to be enamored with me while doing something completely normal for some reason, but I thought it was cute the way he watched me. My fluffy tail was over his lap, so he was hugging it while I had my snacks.

"Bri, are you going to eat anything? We still have a couple hours left to go."

He blinked, then turned in his seat and took a sip of his fancy carbonated juice. He seemed reluctant to pay attention to anything other than me, so I set my cup down and snuggled against his left side. Briar's tail curled on my lap and I grasped it again, rubbing my head on his arm before he moved it to pull me closer.

Briar curled down to kiss my head, then uncurled and relaxed a bit with my left arm draped across his midsection. "It's nice that our seat-mate left on our last stop." he commented, crossing his legs. "Now we can snuggle more without her glaring at us."

I smiled and sat up a bit to kiss his cheek. "Agreed."

Briar's tail tip flicked again, showing how happy he was other than his purrs and the pleased smile he had on his face. My tail thumped on his lap as I snuggled in again. The volume of Briar's purrs increased, which made me quietly laugh.

A few minutes later, Briar asked, "Do you want to watch a movie, Ann?"

I hummed, then nodded. Briar bent over and grabbed his backpack, then retrieved his earbuds and shoved his bag under the seat with his foot as he sat up. I resettled against him and he handed me the left earbud, then put in the right one. While I put my earbud in, Briar reached back and plugged the earbuds into the arm of the seat since it was up for snuggle time.

"What kind of movie do you want to see?" he asked, tapping on the screen in front of his seat. "There are a few movies in multiple genres."

"Um," I mumbled, then looked at his face. His emerald-green eyes gleamed and a smirk curled his lips as I replied, "I don't know. How about you pick it?"

I suddenly had a feeling that he was being sneaky, but I relaxed and let him pick what he wanted. It wasn't until about fifteen minutes later when I realized why Briar was smirking. I was huddled in his arms, trembling after seeing the gory horror in the movie he'd picked.

"You meanie," I whispered against his neck, hearing another tortured scream in my left ear.

Briar cooed and kissed my head. "I'm not really sorry, Ann, since you're so cute."

I pouted and kissing his throat, then slowly turned around and flinched when long claws snapped out towards the camera. Briar kept holding me on his lap and petting my head, then he changed the movie to a nice one a little while later after I got used to what was going on. Thankfully, I enjoyed that second movie much more and Briar was happy as well because I thanked him with kisses.

After the movie, Briar pulled out his phone and we played some puzzle games. Since we still had an hour and a half left to go, I proposed an idea. Briar was a bit stunned and embarrassed.

"We can do that?"

"Yup."

"All right," he murmured, then asked, "but what if the attendants notice?"

"I'll have a illusion-based barrier up so that everything looks normal between us. It will make it look like we're sleeping." I whispered, then smiled when I felt Briar's lap throb. "Does that sound good, Bri?"

"What if we move around on the seats? Won't someone notice?"

I raised an eyebrow. "I'll take care of it if you want to do this, Bri. I'm not going to force you or make you feel bad if you say no."

Briar blushed and shook his head. "I'm just feeling a bit shy. I'm not as sexually interactive in public like Waltz and Zaire."

"I know 'cause you're my Bri." I replied quietly, then gently kissed his red-hot face. "And I love your differences."

Briar bit his lip and then grasped my face to kiss me. I snapped everything into place in an instant and eagerly kissed him back. Briar's tail curled and his tongue flicked over the roof of my mouth, making me shiver since it was a sensitive area. My soft mewls and gasps seemed to turn him on even more, but he held back and nuzzled my throat while we caught our breaths.

"Bri," I whispered in his left black jaguar ear, making his grip tighten around my waist. "I want to pleasure you."

Briar's growl vibrated his body as I kissed down his throat. He tilted his head to the side and twisted slightly as my small hands slid down his chest, then groaned when I nibbled on his shoulder. Briar licked his lips and his eyes flashed a bright gold moments before I met his lips again. My fingers curled under the hem of his t-shirt and began to slide it up, which made Briar a bit shy, but he didn't stop me.

Since I was sitting on his lap and blocking him from view, even though what was going on between us was not visible to anyone else, Briar whimpered a bit when I moved off his legs. But he soon forgot all about his prior bout of embarrassment after I tweaked his nipples and massaged his cock through his dark jeans. My cute Briar tugged on my shirt, so I lifted my arms up so that he could remove it.

"Ann," he said softly, just as I began to pull his cock free from its confines. "Kiss me again, please?"

I looked up at him curiously, then smiled happily and hugged his neck and shoulders. Briar curled his arms around me and buried his nose in my hair before we met each other's lips. Our lips and tongue met again and again, until I think we both felt our lips were somewhat swollen and tingly. Briar cuddled me into his arms, propping my back up with his left arm.

"Remove your shorts and spread your legs, Ann."

I blushed and did as told. "But Bri, I wanted to—!"

"Later, Ann. I can't wait," he murmured, then hissed when he noticed my wet panties. "You're soaked, so I guess you can't wait either."

I'm certain both sets of my ears were red from how hot my face was right now. Briar smirked and slipped my panties off my legs and set them inside my inventory as instructed. The roughened pads of his fingertips on my sensitive bits made me quiver as he pressed his middle finger inside.

Briar inhaled sharply the second I pinched his left nipple. "Ann," he groaned, then gasped when I used my magic to remove the rest of his clothing. "Awfully eager, huh?"

"Well, I still want to pleasure you." I remarked with a cheeky grin. "Either way, I want you inside me."

Briar's face reddened. "Waltz has corrupted you." he muttered with a playful pout and then chuckled. "But that hasn't detracted from your adorable and wonderful self."

My blush made him grin before he pecked my cheeks. At a sudden intrusion of another finger, a shocked mewl slipped out. Briar's emerald-green gaze was dark with desire as he took his time to thoroughly finger my insides, making an absolute mess of me and himself due to my natural lubricant and my lack of self-restraint. Instead of being grossed out, Briar was extremely aroused, so I was relieved.

"Straddle me again, Ann." he whispered, "I thought I couldn't wait, but apparently I could to experience what I did."

My alabaster skin was flushed with scarlet patches as I weakly moved out of his arms and straddled his lap with his help. When I reached down to slick up his cock, Briar's gasp was muffled by my lips. His eyes flashed gold again and he gripped my ass, bringing me down and spearing my insides with his cock. My breath left me with a sharp exhale and a squeak of a moan. It didn't hurt, but it had come as a shock.

"Sorry," mumbled Briar, rubbing his face on my chest. "Are you okay?"

"Mmhm," I hummed, then hugged his neck as he sat up a bit. "Thank you, Bri."

He chuckled and placed his hand on my messy tummy, then licked his fingers free of my semen and pre-come mixture from earlier. "You feel and taste so good, Ann. I honestly want even more."

I checked the time and then clamped down on him. "We've got an hour left, Bri. We can have plenty more."

Briar tensed and shuddered, a deep groan bursting out of him. I felt his cock throb and blushed as his seed seeped around his cock thanks to gravity. Briar, although embarrassed, had me give more to him, although it came freely because I got him as much as I wanted as well.

Briar's thrusts were both deep and short, but they hit that spot inside me to make me come so much until I couldn't physically ejaculate anymore. Although that was also attributed to his fingers jacking off my cock. On the other hand, Briar's stamina was insane. He was like Zaire all over again. My black jaguar Emerged got even more aroused by everything I did and or said to him; like scratching his back and begging for more or telling him that I felt amazing and asking how he felt. Even just breathing heavily in his ears made him so eager to put me in every position he could think of that wouldn't hurt me or make us too embarrassed.

We remained in our row the whole time, so I finished Briar off at the end with my mouth and got my reward. But at this point it was weak and thin from how much he'd given me inside my "other mouth." When we were cleaned up and back to normal—other than being tired with his waist aching and my back hurting—it came to our attention that we'd be landing in about ten minutes.

With blushes on our faces, we handed over our trash to the flight attendant going by with a trash bag and settled ourselves into our seats. I grinned at Briar as he locked our closest hands together.

"Just in time, huh?" I asked with a teasing smirk.

Briar blushed and rubbed his face, then chuckled with a happy smile. "Yeah, but I think we're going to be doing that a lot on our trip."

Now I was blushing. "O-okay," I replied quietly, and pressed my lips to his knuckles. "But you will have to let me use magic so I can at least walk and stand at your side when you need me."

"I can carry you all the time."

"I know you can, but you might want to keep your hands free if something comes up."

Briar pouted and lifted our clasped hands. "All right," he murmured, then rubbed his face on the back of my hand. "I love you."

"I love you too, my handsome Bri."

His tail and lips curled up, showing he was very pleased through his smug smirk. I chuckled and rested my head against his shoulder as the plane continued its descent towards the airport. But the peace didn't last long.

The plane suddenly jolted in such a way that every passenger seemed to float for a split second. A terrible crack and a loud roar almost deafened us. Briar gripped my hand as the plane began to roll. Passengers began to scream as the nose of the plane began to tip downwards. Although I was scared, I remembered Angel's incident and tried to stay calm this time.

"Bri, I don't understand why bad things keep happening to us today, but I'm not going to let you or over a hundred passengers die." I said in his mind, and Briar stiffly nodded with his eyes shut.

Using amplification magic that would reach the cockpit, I emphatically shouted, "Stay calm! You're not going to die here today!"

The people across from Briar and me stared at us with wide eyes as I quickly unbuckled my seatbelt. I looked at Briar and grabbed him, then shifted through a teleport. He grabbed my fur, then I used magic to shield his body from any flying debris and provided a steady stream of air as I dug my talons into the sides of the plane by the exits. I was careful not to puncture any humans, but the dead weight of the plane was immense, even more so with gravity pulling it down. I used magic to lighten it to a reasonable degree, then slowed its fall. Having made myself and Briar invisible, I brought the plane down to the runway and then returned us to our seats.

The people next to us were terrified as expected, but they seemed relieved as they sobbed into their hands. I was relieved, too.

"Why did you take me up there with you?" quietly asked Briar, his form trembling as I hugged him tightly.

"I thought you would feel better knowing what I was doing than remaining in that plane with no answers. Was I wrong to do that?" I asked gently, pushing my fingers through his hair.

His trembling eased a bit as he slowly took a few deep breaths. I settled for kneeling over his lap again and hugged his head, petting his black waves and kissing both sets of his ears.

"You weren't wrong. Thank you, Ann." he breathed, then relaxed into my embrace.

As the crew began to snap into action, they deployed the emergency doors and I put Briar's and my luggage into my inventory as everyone was hustled off the plane without their things due to the emergency situation. The left wing, which had been near Briar and me, had been ripped off, taking a chunk of the underbelly of the plane as well. No one was injured, thankfully, but all were thoroughly scared out of their wits by what had transpired only eight minutes earlier.

But I couldn't figure out why these bad things were happening to us today. My eyebrows scrunched together while Briar held me in his arms. The people who had been around us on the plane gave us a wide berth, but Briar was too absorbed in my scent and touch to care even a smidge about others' thoughts about us.

The captain was scratching his head as he stared at the holes in the plane near the damaged wing and the missing one. His copilot was waving his arms around in great exclamation, but the flight attendants were huddled together. One of them pointed at Briar and me, but the other two shook their heads. I hummed to myself and looked at Briar, then over at the airport where people were starting to gather.

"Shall we go?" I asked Briar with a small smile.

He looked up at my face and then met my lips without care. I giggled and hugged his neck, tousling his black hair and kissing his face. As others began to turn to look, I wiggled my fingers and teleported us inside the airport away from a lot of people. Briar gagged from the second sudden teleportation jump, but he soothed himself by inhaling my scent.

"Where do we need to go, Bri?" I asked quietly, still petting his head.

"To the pickup zone. I'll text someone."

I pulled his phone out of my inventory space and he took it with a smile, kissing my cheek. "Thank you, Ann. Thank you for saving my life—for being in my life, too." he said firmly, tears making his beautiful eyes shimmer.

"You are so very welcome, Bri. And thank you for being in my life, too."
