I dodge to my right to avoid Thrasher's charge as he slides past, barely missing me. As he passes, I throw a vicious left hand jab into his ribs. Before he can recover, I shift away from him, moving quickly to get some distance. My toes drag over the stones on the floor as I move. I keep my knees halfway bent and my fist raised.

Thrasher rubs his ribs slowly as he turns to face me again. The roar from the crowd is distracting and I try to tune it out. My vision narrows until there is only Thrasher and me. As he starts to circle to the left, I follow his movements.

"You're pretty quick." Thrasher throws a jab as he speaks, and I shuffle half a step back as he does. When he starts to follow me, I step in to meet him. My left hand rushes to meet his face, but he bobs his head to avoid it and backs away.

"What? Don't want to talk when there's no help for you?" He smiles at me, showing off his pointed teeth. I don't give him the reaction he is wanting from me. Instead, we calmly circle each other.

With a roar, he tries to charge me again. This time his arms spread wide like a net. There is no way to slip past him on either side, so I step in to meet him. Thrasher smiles as he sees me going toward him. His arms start to close like he's going to wrap me in a bear hug.

I bend my knees and slip under his arms before I push forward and up. His eyes are full of surprise as he realizes he has missed me. He tries to stop before we connect, but his momentum carries him forward. As my right fist connects with his face, I feel a satisfying crunch as his nose crumples.

Before he can recover, I move away from him and gain precious space. I try to relax my breathing as it's a little faster than I would like. For all of Thrasher's bulk, he relies on rushing and overpowering his opponents. I roll my shoulders as he recovers, facing me with a snarl.

"I'll fucking kill you for that!" I smirk at him, seeing him get more and more worked up.

"You have to catch me first." My voice is calm and measured. I want him angry. The angrier he gets, the less control he will have in a fight.

My plan works, almost too well as he charges me with a loud yell. I nearly stumble over a stone that's not even with its neighbor as I move out of the way. By the time I recover, Thrasher has too and his guard is back up. We start to circle again, watching each other closely.

I circle and start to move closer a half step at a time. I jab with my left, watching as he ducks out of the way. He tries to use the opening I left when I jabbed. Thrasher moves in on my left side and swings with a wild haymaker.

I let my body fall backwards as he moves, kicking out with my right boot as I fall. My boot connects with his side as my body hits the stones. Before he can recover, I'm on my feet again closing the distance between us. A vicious right slams into his ribs, and I hear him gasp. I'm not letting up as I drive my left into his kidneys. I'm falling backwards again as he recovers faster than I expected and catches me with an elbow.

I try and roll with the blow to minimize the damage. I still feel winded as his elbow connects with my stomach. My feet shuffle backwards while I wrap my left hand around my stomach.

Motherfucker can hit. Can't let him connect again. He tries to follow me as I'm moving, pushing his advantage. Sidestepping him, I slam my elbow into his face as he passes. He curses loudly, but I'm moving again. Don't stop. Shake it off, Marsterson. I can hear my dad's voice echoing my own thoughts. He would tell me that I'm not hurt that bad, and don't let it slow me down.

"Fucking stand still you useless fuck!" When Thrasher starts to move forwad, I step in to meet him. My right jab connects with his face, stunning him for a second. As he starts to swing, I drive my left into his ribs in a vicious uppercut. He starts to pitch forward so I grab his shoulders. Before he can pull away, I drive my knee up into his body. Once, twice, three times I slam my knee home into him. When I go to knee him again, I feel his arms wrap around my leg.

"Shit!" My grip on his shoulders is gone in a split second as he pushes me off balance. It propels our bodies forward to slam us into the stone. I'm moving before I can register that the wind is knocked out of my lungs. My hands scramble to try and get a grip on him as we twist on the ground in a knot. He lets go of my leg, trying to get a better grip on my body. Not giving him the chance, I try to twist us around.

I manage to wrestle my way on top of him. I pull his right wrist into my chest as I move. There's a brief moment where I think I have him, but my plan of twisting his arm into a better position vanishes as his knee hits my chest. The little remaining air in my lung vanishes as quick as my grip on his arm does.

We are both scrambling away from each other as we put as much distance between us as possible. We are both breathing hard as we move slowly around the ring. I can feel sweat rolling off of me, starting to soak my shirt. I take half a second to try and wipe my eyes on my sleeve.

Thrasher moves in while I'm momentarily distracted. His fist drives into my ribs, slipping below my guard. I kick out, forcing him to backpedal. As I lean to the right my ribs ache, but it doesn't feel like they are broke. I doubt they are going to feel good tomorrow though.

He grins at me, his sharpened teeth stained a bright crimson. That causes me to pause a second, and I realize my knuckles are bleeding.

Don't punch him in the mouth, he'll keep shredding my hands. I see his muscles tense a split second before he charges me again. This time I didn't move forward to meet him. My knees bend and I slip under his wild swing. The surprise is showing on his face as I propel myself forward and up into him. My shoulder catches him in the stomach as I twist my body to pin him to the wall.

He grunts as his body is slammed into the wall. Not giving him any time to recover, I drive my fist one after another into his body. I know I won't have long before he counters, so I make each blow count. He drops his arms as my left connects, pinning my arm to his side. He avoids my right by turning his body and twisting out of the way. Before I can rip my left arm free, he uses it as leverage to slam me into the wall.

His arm comes up, trying to press into my throat as he slams his fist into my stomach. I drop my chin, blocking his arm from reaching my throat. He changes tactics then, twisting his hands into my shirt as he continues to work me over with the other. My hands scramble to find a grip on him, and I feel my feet lifting off the ground. He slams my head into the wall, and I start to kick out trying to break free. Thrasher lets out a grunt as my boot connects with his shin, but he doesn't drop me.

I'm pushing against his skull with my right hand as I try to lower my left arm to protect my body. Something scrapes over my fingers, so I twist my hand higher. He slams me into the wall, making me see spots as my head connects with the wall again. There is something almost soft under my thumb, and I drive my thumb into it. Thrasher screams in pain and I feel his grip loosen as my thumb is coated in something warm.

I force myself off the wall by arching my back as hard as I can. My feet get a split second of purchase on the rough wooden walls. I use that to push off harder, sending both of us tumbling onto the ground. It's a mess, something hot and wet splashes over my hand as I scramble. I ignore it and try to twist into a better position to gain just a little bit of leverage.

Somehow, I end up on top of Thrasher with my arm wrapped around his head. He is bucking under me, trying to throw me off. Pain flares in my arm, and I jerk it away on instinct.

That fucker just bit me! Before I can scramble away, he pushes both of us up. Once again, I'm slammed into the rough walls of the pit. I scramble to get any kind of grip on him as he starts to pull away. He drives his head back into mine, making me scream in agony as he connects with my already broken nose.

He tries to slam his head into me again, but I twist my head out of the way. As his head slams into my shoulder, I lean in. My teeth close in around his ear, and I taste sweat and dirt in my mouth. He screams as I bite down as hard as I can, feeling cartilage and flesh shred under my teeth. A tearing sound fills my ears as I jerk my head away. Thrasher drives an elbow into my ribs, pushing away from me violently.

My chest is heaving as I push myself to my feet. Thrasher is cursing loudly, one hand cupping the side of his head where his ear used to be. One eye is closed, and there is a mixture of blood and clear fluid leaking from it As he turns to face me, I spit the lump of cartilage out onto the stone floor. For the first time since the start of the fight, Thrasher seems unsure.

Did I just take his fucking eye out? Doesn't matter. He is still up so don't fucking let up.

"I'm good, how about you?" I raise my fist and settle back into a loose fighting stance. Thrasher growls at me, digging into his pocket as he starts to speak.

"Oh, I'll show you how good I am!" A small blue stone is in his fingers now. I tilt my head, confused at what the thing is. Thrasher grins as he presses it to the bracer on his right arm. With an audible pop, the bracer comes off and falls to the floor.

"NO FAIR, CALL THE FIGHT GET THEM OUT OF THERE!" I don't have time to wonder who just yelled as Thrasher charges forward again. He is moving faster than before, and his swing barely misses me. Ducking low, I slip under his guard and drive my knee into his body as I pass.

As Thrasher starts to turn to face me, I close in and stay behind him. I stomp on the back of his knee, forcing him to the ground. His right hand catches him before he goes all the way down. As he is starting to push himself up, I bring my boot down on his spread hand. I feel something crunch under my foot, then I'm flying through the air.

As I push myself to my feet, I see Thrasher cradling his hand to his chest. Using the small break in the fight, I try to force air into my lungs. Thrasher starts to shake his hand, then flexes his fingers.

Fuck, his mana is letting him ignore his injuries. I need to end this quick, or he is going to wear me down.

When he charges me again, I race forward to meet him. He leads off with a wild swing from his right hand. I can tell he is expecting me to try and slip under his blow. His whole body language is centered around countering my move. His eyes go wide as I throw my left hand up and catch the blow on my forearm.

My left arm goes numb below the elbow from the force of the blow. I don't have time to worry about that. I have to move. I drive my elbow into Thrasher's face, snapping his head to the side. I push myself forward, twisting my body back to slam my elbow into his face again on a backswing. He starts to stumble, so I press in harder.

His body jerks with each blow I land, and he is forced back with each step. My left hand doesn't want to work, so I use my elbow on the left. His eye is starting to lose focus as he slams into the wall. I drive my right fist into his face, feeling my knuckles split open more on his teeth. His body starts to slide down the wall before he catches himself.

As he starts to push himself up using the wall for support, I make my move. My boot comes down hard on the joint of his knee. The popping sound echoes in the pit. He crumples to the ground, clutching his knee. I don't let up as he goes down. I kick and stomp him over and over.

One of my kicks connect with his ribs, and I feel something crack. Thrasher tries to raise a hand, possibly in a surrender. I don't take the chance and continue to stomp and kick the bastard. Blood starts to splash onto my face, and I hear someone screaming. As a sharpened tooth flies past my face, I realize I'm the one screaming. A wordless yell that somehow is louder than the roaring of the crowd.

Blood splashes into my face which makes me blink wildly. As my foot comes back down on Thrasher it slips sliding between him and the wall. Before I realize what's happening, I'm on the ground again. Kicking out I scramble away from thrasher, getting as much distance as I can. Back on my feet, I hurriedly wipe my eyes clean on my sleeve.

My hands come up on instinct as I drop back down into my fighting stance. It turned out I didn't need to worry about it. Thrasher is letting out a low moan, his body shaking as he curls into a ball. I turn my head to look into the crowd as they stare down at me in silence. Shiva and Thea aren't by the rail any longer. I feel a momentary twinge of fear before I catch a glimpse of them in the corner of my eye. They are standing at the door into the pit. Thea's mouth agape in shock.

As I turn back to face the crowd, I let out a wordless scream. My hands rise into the air like I'm claiming a champion belt. For a moment the crowd is silent, and I feel like an idiot. Then almost at once, the crowd is yelling and cheering.

"Come on, we need to get those braces off of you!" Thea is pulling me backwards as the crowd continues to yell. As I turn to follow her, I nearly trip over my own feet.

"Fuck, what's with the floor?" Thea tosses a look over her shoulder that I'm sure means I'm an idiot.

"You are exhausted. I'm pretty sure something is broken and you're bleeding. The floor isn't making you stumble. Now, sit!" Thea pushes me onto a bench beside the entrance to the pit. Shiva is standing against the wall opposite of us, staring at me as Thea kneels beside me.

"You ok, Shiva?" She nods to me slowly as her hands close and open repeatedly.

"She will be fine in just a little bit. Now, let's get these off before Alexis drains me." Thea holds a small blue stone identical to the one Thrasher had in the pit. The bracer on my right arm pops free, and I feel the two on my left warming slightly. Thea presses the stone to the one on my wrist, causing it to pop off as well. Before she can move the stone to the last bracer, it heats up and pops off.

As the last bracer falls off my arm, I feel the mana bridge between Thea and I open back up. As it opens, there is a rush of mana flowing from me into Thea.

"How much did Alexis take from you?" Thea shrugs as she begins to mumble a spell, her hands glowing softly.

"She needs more than I can actually manage on my own. I ended up drawing from Sarge twice, but it's all good now. I'm going to hold on to her for a little while. You are going to be busy for the next little bit and I can manage since I can pull from you." I feel the cuts and bites on my body close as Thea works on me. My head clears as her hand moves over me, and I feel my fatigue fade away.

"Here, rinse your mouth." Jacob hands me a glass full of some liquid. I raise it in a half toasting motion before taking a mouthful. A smooth almost sweet ale fills my mouth, and I swish it slowly. There doesn't seem to be anywhere to spit that I can see. I spit the mouthful of ale out beside the bench.

"This is pretty good." I nod to Jacob again as I down the rest of the glass.

"Yeah, Orin has some good brewers he works with. Anyway, I'm going to go check on Vaunea, then talk to Orin. Try not to take too long Silas." While Jacob is walking away, Thea pulls off her belt and loops it over my neck. As I turn back to her, I realize she is wearing my armor. The vest has resized to hug her form perfectly.

"Why are you putting your belt on me." She takes the now empty glass as I stand up. Before she can speak, my hands are full of Shiva, who has jumped into my arms. Her mouth is crushing against mine, our teeth clashing together from the force of the kiss. My head is yanked backwards violently, and I feel Shiva break the kiss to bite down my neck.

"Because I know you don't like to be without a weapon, and Shiva doesn't want to wait on you to take off your armor. I'll be with Jacob and Vaunea. Don't worry about talking to Orin." As Shiva's teeth latch onto my neck, I tilt my head to see Thea leaving. Shiva grabs my beard, pulling my face back down to hers.

"Focus on me and not her, Jim!" I feel Shiva's hand slipping into my jeans, stroking my length to full hardness.

"The fuck!" I rip my lips free of hers, and pull her head back roughly. Shiva moans as I pull her head back from mine, and I see her eyes almost blazing over. "What the fuck?"

"Shut up, follow me!" Shiva unwraps her legs from my waist, and starts to nearly run up the stairs. I'm stumbling behind her, being dragged by her grip on my waistband. When we hit the top of the stairs, everyone seems to part in front of her. When we reach the back of the room, she pulls me down a narrow hall.

"Inside, now!" Shiva kicks open a door I barely notice, and shoves me inside. The room is small, barely big enough to stand beside the bed pushed against one wall. Before I can turn to face the door, I hear it slam shut. Shiva has a wild look in her eyes, and is stripping off her belt before I get all the way turned around.

"Ok, what the hell, Shiva?" She tosses her belt against the wall and slams into me before I can stop her.

"For fucks sake, Jim. Shut the fuck up with the questions!" She takes my shirt off, practically ripping it in her rush. She is fumbling with my belt when she starts to curse again. "What is wrong with your fucking belt!?" I push her hands aside and start to do my belt myself.

Shiva is kissing me again, her tongue and teeth working in a frenzy. She tries to push me against the wall as my belt finally snaps free. She lets out a low growl as I twist us both to pin her against the wall. As she tries to push me away, I grab both her wrist in mine and pin them to the wall above her head.

"Fucking hell. Just fuck me, Jim. I can't take this right now!" I press her hips against the wall with mine, and tilt my head when she lets out a soft meowing sound. Her breath is coming in heavy pants, and I feel her grinding against my hips.

"Hey boss, I'm with Jacob. He wanted me to tell you that you are the reason Shiva is so worked up. He said she will be alright, but she won't be worth anything till you help her. Thea also said she warned you about beastkin getting excited by shows of strength. So have fun I guess, and we will be waiting when you are done."

Shiva has managed to slip her hands from my grip as I was listening to Sarge. By the time I realize what she is doing, my Jean's are pushed down around my knees.

"Jim, focus! I need you right now, please!" She is looking up at me as she starts to stroke my cock roughly. A moan escapes my lips as her mouth crashes against mine again. Out of the corner of my eye, I try to examine the bed in the room with us. Even though it is narrow, the bedding looks clean, and I don't smell anything from it.

"Shiva, down." I push her back gently, watching her pant hard for a second. She is opening her mouth to speak when I cut her off, shushing her with a gentle finger over her lips. Shiva sucks my finger into her mouth, running her tongue over it and swirling it around her mouth.

"If we are doing this here, we are doing it my way." I pull my finger from her mouth, causing her to moan as I step back from her. "Get your boots off, now!" I let a hard edge enter my voice as I speak. Shiva shivers at the sound of it, dropping onto the edge of the bed to work on the laces of her boots.

I hitch my pants back up around my hips and let the leather chaps drop to the floor as I try to calm down just a little bit. Using the edge of the bed, I unlatch one boot then the other. I hear Shiva letting out what I can only describe as a purr.

Her hands start tracing over my chest as she kisses me again. I wrap my arms around her, pulling her in close to me. Her body feels like a furnace against me, and the purring is getting louder.

"So you purr, huh?" Shiva's face flushes to the point it almost matches her hair.

"Don't tease me. Try and distract me right now." She starts to try to shove my jeans down again, but I stop her and pull her hands above her head.

"I'm not teasing. I just didn't know you could purr. Keep your hands raised, and I'll let you know when you can lower them." I let the hard edge seep into my voice with the last sentence, letting her know it's not a request. Shiva shivers under my touch as my fingers trail down her body. She's lets out a quiet gasp as they stroke the skin just above her waist.

I slowly start to strip her shirt off her, pulling her arms through the sleeves as it hangs off her neck. My lips press against hers firmly, but gently as I pull it over her head. She starts to drop her arms as I kiss her, but I lift them above her head again. With my hips, I push her against the wall, pushing the back of her hands against the wooden boards.

"Don't move them again! If you move them before I tell you too again, I'm going to stop." Shiva nods to me with her eyes half closed. I take a half step back to stare at her, getting momentarily distracted by the way her chest heaves as she waits. The bra she is wearing has her bound tightly, the tops of her breast nearly popping out. As she starts to whimper, I close the distance between us again.

She moans loudly as I cup her left breast while kissing her. Her lips try and follow mine as I break the kiss. I use my free hand to gently push her head to the side, latching onto her neck with my lips. Her hips buck against me as I work the sensitive flesh of her neck with my teeth. As she begins to buck her hips harder, I kneel on the hard wooden floorboards.

She lets out a loud gasp as I pull her nipple into my mouth through her bra. I feel her pressing against me, trying to get me to take more of her into my mouth. My lips curl into a smile as my fingers continue to move. The damned sheath she wears like a waist trainer is giving me problems. I finally manage to undo the laces, dropping the offending piece of fabric and blades.

My fingers slowly climb up her body, lifting the bottom of her bra to let her tits free. My right hand catches one of her breasts, tweaking her nipple as my mouth catches the other. Her hips slam forward into my chest, grinding against me as I work over her sensitive flesh.

"Please! Please, don't stop! More, more, please Jim more!" I let her nipple free of my mouth with a loud pop.

"Quiet now, you wouldn't want anyone to hear us would you?" I feel myself smiling as I tease Shiva.

"FUCK, DON'T FUCKING STOP!" I jump at her yell, looking up to see her smiling down at me. "I activated Jacob's silence charm when I closed the door. No one can hear us right now." I smile up at her, my hands slipping down her body slowly.

"That's probably a good thing because I'm going to make you scream now that I know that." I let my hands rest on her hips as I lean in to kiss her stomach. My lips marking a trail down her body as my hands slowly lower her pants. I take an extra second at her bellybutton, feeling her jerk as I kiss the sensitive flesh. The sound of her panting as well as the scent of her arousal is driving me wild. It takes everything I have to move slow, too not just dive in, but to take my time.

"Please, please don't stop!" My lips curl into a smile as I kiss my way down her hips. She lifts one of her legs to help me remove her pants, and I rest that leg on my shoulders. Right before I dive in, I look up her body into her eyes. She is panting hard, watching me as my lips get closer and closer to her dripping sex. I kiss her thigh right beside her center.

She moans at the closeness of the contact, and tries to shift herself onto my lips. I let out a low growl as I grip her hips tightly to hold her still. I trail kisses along her inner thigh, moving closer and closer to her center with each kiss. When she tries to buck against my grip, I nip lightly with my teeth, making her yelp. I nearly jump as her tail wraps around my wrist, glancing up into her eyes.

"Ple-please don't tease m-m-me. I don't know how much more I can handle." Smiling, I turn my attention back to the task in front of me.

As I run the flat of my tongue along the length of her slit, I hear her scream above me. I start to work over her dripping sex faster. My tongue separates her lips, searching out her nub. As I circle her clit, I feel her buck into my mouth harder. The fingers of my right hand come up to cup her dripping sex as I lap at her swollen clit.

One of my fingers slide inside her, and I feel her clamp down tightly. Her hips buck against me, and I feel her body stiffen under my touch. A wordless scream echoes in the room as her body spasms under my touch. I work my finger in and out, setting a slow easy pace that I match with my tongue. Shiva's scream shifts to a moan as I continue to work on her dripping sex.

As I feel her inner muscles starting to spasm again, I slide a second finger inside her. She stiffens under my touch for a second, then lets out a low meowing sound. Her hips keep thrusting into me, making my lips break contact with her pussy on each thrust. I let out a low growl as I push her back against the wall with my chin. Covering her soaking slit with my mouth as I lap quickly over her throbbing clit.

"Jimmmmmm, please!" I smile as I start to drive my fingers into her almost roughly. Her hips slam back into me as my fingers drive home inside her. I can feel her inner muscles spasming around my fingers. Her breath is coming in gasps, as her chest heaves. I can feel her getting closer and closer as I continue to work her dripping sex. I feel her muscles tighten on my fingers, and I smile as she cums on my fingers. Her whole body stiffens, her back arching as she screams at the top of her lungs.

"FFFUUUUCCCCKKKKKK!" I wince as her scream echoes in the enclosed space of the room. She starts to collapse against the wall and I catch her in my arms. With a small grunt I manage to stand, holding Shiva in my arms. Her leg is still over my shoulder, making the position awkward for both of us. I slip her leg off my shoulder, holding her close against my chest. I lean down over the bed, laying her down gently.

As I stand back up, I work my pants down my hips and step out of them. Shiva is reaching up for me as I start to join her on the bed. She pulls me in close with one arm as her other hand starts to stroke me again. She kisses me roughly and her legs start to wrap around my waist.

I feel her rubbing the head of my cock up and down her soaking slit. A moan escapes my lips as I have to fight not to slam myself into her. Her legs try to pull me inside, but I hold myself back. She starts to whimper as I slowly slide myself forward. The head of my cock slides up the length of her slit, but not inside her.

"Jim, Jim fuck me! Please don't make me wait any more! Please fuck me!" She tries to adjust my cock to angle it inside of her, but I pull her hand off me. I take both her hands and place them on the thin headboard of the bed.

"You want me to fuck you, Shiva? You want me to slide my hard cock inside your tight pussy?" Her hips buck against mine as she starts to yell.

"Yes! Please fuck me, Jim. Fuck me with your hard cock!" I smile down at her as she starts to beg me to fuck her. I lean in to kiss her roughly as I pull her legs away from my hips.

"Then don't move your hands, and know I'm the one controlling this. Do you understand?" Shiva nods quickly, her hands gripping the headboard so tight her knuckles start to turn white. I lift Shiva's legs to rest them on my shoulders, looking down at the panting cat-girl below me.

With one hand, I start to tease Shiva's hardened nipples, switching from one to the other. At the same time, I start to tease the head of my cock up and down her slit again. As Shiva starts to moan louder, I slowly push my hips forward. The head of my cock slipping inside her dripping sex. Her eyes squeeze closed as I start to slide in and she turns her head away from me. I quit playing with her nipples to turn her head towards me.

"Look at me, Shiva. If this is really what you want, then don't look away." Her eyes snap open to look into mine, and I can see something I can't recognize in her gaze. There is plenty of lust in her eyes, and a longing, but also something that almost looks like fear.

I lean in, feeling her leg muscles stretching as she is almost folded in half. She moans loudly as I lean forward farther to kiss her. Her lips are locked onto mine, and I feel her panting into my mouth. Shiva starts to moan into my mouth as I feel my hips press against hers.

I break the kiss, leaning back slightly as I start to pull out slowly. When the head of my cock is all that's left inside of her, I start to thrust forward slowly. Shiva moans as I keep up the slow pace, back and forth inside of her. I can feel her inner muscles starting to clamp down on me again as I slowly thrust into her.

"Please Jim, please faster!" I smile as Shiva starts to beg, shifting my knees on the thin bed. As she stares up at me, I pull myself almost completely out of her. She starts to open her mouth to beg me to go faster when I slam myself home inside her. Her inner walls clamp down on my hard cock as I drive myself into her again and again.

I let Shiva's legs slip off my shoulders as I grip the headboard beside her hands. My hips are slamming into hers as she continues to moan and curse. With my free hand, I pull Shiva's head up to mine. My lips crush against hers as I keep driving myself into her. I feel her spasm around my cock as she rips her lips free of mine. Her insides clamp down on me as she cums on my hard cock.

"YYEEESSSSSSSS!" Her head slams back into the thin bed as her body arches up to meet mine. For a second, I can't move my hips as Shiva's muscles clamp down on me almost painfully tight. Shiva continues to yell a wordless scream as her inner muscles spasm around me. I feel her inner walls start to release me, so I start a gentle thrusting motion again.

"Oh fuck, oh fuck!" Shiva starts to thrust her hips up to meet mine. The sounds of flesh slapping against flesh echoes through the room. I can feel Shiva's inner walls starting to spasm as I'm getting close to cumming. I start to pull myself out of her, and my hand reaches down to stroke my hard length.

"Nooooooo! Please, inside me! It's safe, please inside me. Don't stop, Jim!" I slam myself completely back inside her. She throws her head back, screaming so loud I'm sure she is going to rupture my eardrums. I feel her inner walls spasm around my cock at the same time my own orgasm is rising.

"Fuck!" I yell out a curse as I feel my own orgasm reaching its peak. My hips slam into Shiva's as I feel her inner walls clamping down on me again. My cock explodes inside her as I feel her inner walls clamp down on me again. Shiva arches up into me, screaming out as she cums around my hard cock. My hips buck forward milking the last of my cum into Shiva as my cock starts to soften.

I barely manage to keep from collapsing on top of Shiva as my orgasm finishes. I catch myself on my forearms and lay beside Shiva on the narrow bed. Shiva moves her body closer to mine, letting go of the headboard to wrap her arms around me. Shiva wraps her legs around mine as I try to catch my breath. Her tail winds around my leg, and I feel her snuggle her head into my chest.

"Mmmm, worth the wait." Before I can ask Shiva what she means, I hear her start to softly snore.

Well fuck, now what? I look around the narrow room, wondering what I should do. I briefly notice Jacob's pendant hanging from a nail on the door. I can't help but smile as I think about how useful that little thing has been.

"You done now, boss?" I kiss the top of Shiva's head gently as I respond to Sarge inside my head.

Uhh yeah, but Shiva is asleep now. Not sure how to take that one. How did you know I was done anyway? I hear the strange laughing inside my head before Sarge responds.

"Turns out when you and Shiva got started, it had an interesting effect on Thea. She has spent the last half hour gripping Vaunea's arm so tight she started to complain." I start to chuckle softly at Sarge's words. When I reach out through the bridge between Thea and me, I can feel her excitement.

Sounds like I'm not going to get much sleep tonight am I? Again, I hear Sarge's laugh inside my head. I feel like he is talking to someone else. It is weird. I know he is talking, but I can't hear what he is saying.

"She says that's right. Also Jacob says we need to hurry up and get to the inn. So hurry up and pull your pants on, boss."

Any idea about Shiva? I try to gently shake her awake, but she doesn't respond to my attention.

"Jacob says to dress her yourself and he will meet you at the door. He said she might not wake up for a while, at least if you did your job right." I feel Sarge laughing at me, and I start to get annoyed. I nudge Shiva gently. When she shows no sign of waking up I ease out of the narrow bed. I gently put her bra back into position, smirking as I realize it's the only piece of clothing we didn't remove during our fun.

I'll have to remedy that tonight. I shake my head to force myself to focus. Pants and panties, where the hell did we throw them? My eyes scan the room, seeing Shiva's pants flung into the corner. As I pick them up, I start to frown, not seeing her panties anywhere.

"What the fuck, where are they?" I'm about to look under the bed when I hear a knock on the door.

"Silas open up, it's me." I bite back a curse as I step to the door and open it a crack.

"Sorry man, I still haven't managed to get her dressed. Just give me five minutes." Jacob pushes on the door firmly.

"You learn to disregard modest living in an adventurers camp. Let me in and I'll give you a hand. It's not like I've never seen her naked before." I brace the door against my shoulder, not sure what to do.

"I don't know. I doubt she will be happy about that when she wakes up." Jacob shoves the door hard, surprising me and forcing it open.

"I'll let her know it's my fault when she wakes up. We just need to get gone before night-shift takes over the watch patrol. So hurry up and..." Jacob stops talking mid sentence, his face turning red as he spins to face the wall.

"Pants Jim, fucking pants!" I'm confused for half a second, holding Shiva's pants in my hand.

"I have them right here. I was looking for her undergarments when you knocked." Jacob shakes his head, banging it softly on the wall.

"No Jim, yours! Shiva will forgive me for seeing her naked. I don't want to risk what she will do if she thinks I'm peeping on you." I hurriedly find my jeans as well as my chaps and start to pull them on as Jacob speaks.

“What, you afraid Shiva will think you are checking me out?” I button up my jeans, and tighten my belt and chaps down securely. “You can turn around now, I’m mostly decent.” As Jacob peeks over his shoulder, I start to pull Shiva's pants on her.

"I'd rather not risk it." Jacob starts to gather up Shiva's clothes, tossing me her shirt. Her blades he tucks into his bag, and then grabs her boots from where she threw them. "Can I ask you a question?"

"Go ahead, not like I have anything to hide." I turn and sit on the bed, pulling on my boots and lacing them up quickly.

"Why did you jump in the pit with Thrasher for me, and why aren't you freaking out over how I am?" As I finish tying my boots, I look up at Jacob. He has a nervous look on his face, and I realize my reaction isn't what he was expecting.

"If you had got in the ring with Thrasher, I'm pretty sure he would have killed you. You're my friend. I wasn't about to let that happen. As to you being gay," I shrug my shoulders. " I don't see how that changes anything. Just means when we go to a bar, I'll have to adjust my wingman strategy."

"Most people aren't ok with it." I stand as Jacob is speaking, pulling on my shirt I give him a smile. As I'm adjusting Thea's belt and buckling it on my waist, I ask him.

"Are you going to try and seduce me?" He shakes his head no almost violently. "You gonna try and get me drunk and take advantage of me?" Again, he shakes his head no. "Then as far as I'm concerned, you are just my friend. Not my gay friend, not my friend I keep my distance from. Just my friend, and I'll stand beside you anytime you need it. As long as you are willing to do the same for me."

Jacob helps me lean Shiva forward to pull her shirt on. She almost wakes up, but just mumbles something illegible and stays asleep. I look around the room for anything we might have missed. Then I lean down to pick her up in a princess carry. Jacob still looks like he is lost in thought as I turn around. Shiva cuddled close to my chest.

"Still can't find her panties. So you carry her boots and grab your pendant from the door. I'll carry her to the inn, just lead the way." Jacob nods, shoving her boots into his bag and snagging his pendant from the door.

"Thank you for being my friend, and I'll always stand beside you when you need it. Not just because you are important to Shiva." I pull the door shut with my boot as we enter the hallway. Shiva shifts in my arms as I start down the hall. I lean my head down and kiss the top of her head as I walk. When I do, she shifts a little in my grip and buries her face deeper in my chest.

"Mine." Her hands curl into the front of my shirt, as she mumbles into my chest.

She is cute as hell when she is asleep. I'm glad Thea and her are getting along now, even if it is because they are sharing me. I don't know why Thea is ok with this, but I'm glad she is.
