"Woo! Another raid! Awesome man, so quick too." Grey slapped an arm over Cedric's shoulder.

"Aw man, did you see Mani's face when she paid the bill? Ahahahah!" Cedric and Grey were two hours in, with an hour and a half or so left for the party.

"Oh man, I was crying. 'Well, I do believe I will be recovering from this for a while.' I think we went overboard dude."

"We might've, kinda sucks though - I feel like I gotta pay it back!"

"Don't booooother Scourgie, that lioness is super rich. Got loads of creds from her 'conquests', poor bastards."

"She makes them pay?"

"Never the first time. They always pay her to come back."

"Poor bastards indeed." Cedrix finished off another mug of beer, "Hey Grey you like, wanna go dance?"

"Dance? Man I'm not much of a dancer..."

"Come on, just the two of us. What are the other guys gonna do, butt in?"

"Nah they probably aren't. I'm too much woman for them to handle."

"You're not too much woman for me to handle, at least not yet." Cedric grinned. He was smashed.

"Oh yeah? Fine then, let's do it."

"Bet."

Grey finished off her mug and stood up, slightly swaying back and forth.

"Bet huh? Alright. Lead the way Scourgie."

"Shouldn't you be doing that?"

"You were the one asked - so you're the one who leads. Very. Simple. Logic." She slurred.

"Alright, fine."

Cedric rose from his seat and had to catch himself on the bar counter as his world spinned around and around.

"Whoa! Whoa..."

Grey let out a burst of laughter from her maw, "Hey man, do you need to go back to your room?"

"Nah nah nah, I'm good. I wanna dance with you."

"Okay then big guy, you're the boss."

Cedric sauntered to the dancing, and very drunk crowd. Some of them grabbing for the cages jokingly and causing general commotion. The electronic music was so loud blasting through the speakers that he could still hear it just fine over the raging crew.

"This. This right here is... A good spot." Cedric slurred. He made his way to an emptier spot on the floor, still having a few Korellei yet enough space for the duo to move about. He didn't recognize any of the EDM that was playing, but much of it was in low Korellei. However, he did recognize a few beats from his past. Not many, maybe only three songs. But there nonetheless - sang in low Korellei, instead of English.

"Picking this spot? Looks good. How you wanna do this?"

"What do you mean?"

"You said you wanted to dance together."

"Like, in the same spot yeah?"

"Dude in thay case we might as well be on seperate sides of the floor. You know what? Come here."

"Huh?"

He stepped a bit closer to Grey and looked around for a moment, seeing how the Korellei danced. It really wasn't much different from what he had seen at the free dances in college, like the fall dance.

Grey grabbed ahold of his hands, seeing her closely she was only about a foot and half shorter than Cedric, tall for a Korellei.

"Alright, now stand just like that."

Grey turned around, keeping a hold of Cedric's hands. She rested her back against his chest, bringing his hands low to grab her taut stomach. She looked straight up at Cedric from underneath him, his hands now wrapped around her body with her hands and arms overlapping. She swayed slowly at first, until he caught on to the rhythm. Back and forth, sway and sway.

"See? Easy." She said.

"Y-yeah, I suppose so." He stuttered.

"Alright, next phase." She said. The music began go roll a bit slower, forming a break in the pounding bass and flashing lights.

Grey lifted her left arm high, touching his cheek with a furred hand - fitting it underneath his mask so he could feel her on his skin.

"And now, drop." She warned. She crouched low, keeping her arm high and Cedric's grasp within her. Sweat poured from his body clinging to his shirt, heat rising both within him and around him. Wrapping a fluffy tail around his leg, she bent forward and stuck her butt out, rising slowly and caressing his loins.

"It's getting hot." He said, somewhat low.

"Did you like that?" She asked with a grin - still looking to him skyward.

"Yeah, never danced like that before."

She turned around and rested her hands on what she could of his chest.

"Well, you made me do all the work. Stop being so awkward man, it's a party! Let loose! We're gonna be busy the rest of the week."

"If you say so, but I'm taking my shirt and coat off first."

"Oh? Well, go do that then." She instructed.

"Yeah yeah, hold on."

Cedric walked back to their spots, and relieved himself of his jacket first. He followed it with his shirt, resting them both on the cushion of the chair where Grey had hung her black leather jacket. He bent slightly for just a moment after turning back to face Grey, sweat pouring from his body. He was tired, but the alcohol kept him energized and active. Not to be foolish, he flagged down one of the bartenders.

"Excuse me." He said. "Having fun?"

"Huh? Oh shit, what's up Bee."

"Busy." She clacked, "I know you're drunk, but thank you for spending time with Grey."

"Huh? Yeah sure, I like her. She's cool."

"Oh yeah?" Rainbow smiled, albeit it was somewhat difficult to interpret.

"She hasn't been with a male in a long time, they're scared of her."

"Scared of her? Why, she's badass!"

"That's exactly why." Rainbow replied, in a quite serious tone.

"That's... Kinda fucked up. How long?"

"Years."

Cedric looked back to Grey, moving around just a bit to the music. He drank in her appearance, and could see why someone like that would be scary. Intricate tattoos layered her grey and charcoal fur, forming a base of color fit for a true grey wolf. Mottled greys, tans, and specks of white covered her backside leading easy into a white underbelly, visible thanks to her crop top. Her fluffy tail only accentuated her strong and toned body. Her voice when she spoke was a bit gruff, but not scary. She had eyes the color of honey, a beautiful and true-to-name grey wolf.

"Wouldn't the males want a strong female like her though? I don't get it."

"It's complicated..." Rainbow sighed.

"Well I think that's bullshit, Grey is great."

"You think so?"

Cedric nodded, still admiring her.

"One of few. Did you need something? A rag maybe? For uh, that."

She pointed to his body.

"Rag is pointless, just need me a big glass of water. Don't want to dehydrate."

"Alright then, hang tight I'll be back with it."

Cedric rested against the counter while waiting, taking in the scene. Many Korellei of all shapes and sizes were dancing to and fro, going almost ballistic with energy as they danced the night away - surged with energizing alcohol and an impatience for the coming week. A lot of them avoided Grey, growing somewhat of a circle around her. He saw her look back and forth a bit, then set her honeyed eyes on Cedric - she waved to him.

Cedric unclipped his mask and smiled, waving back. She motioned to her wrist as if she were wearing a watch, and faded to the edge of the circle, leaving it vacant. She was going to wait for him, he figured. He was about to mime some more motions when Rainbow settled a tall glass of water down on the counter behind him. He nodded his thanks and downed it, water dribbling from his beard down to his body - trickling down to be soaked up by his pants. He sat the glass back down on the bar, before thanking Rainbow and slow jogging his way back to Grey.

"Oh, needed that." He said.

"Maybe I should've got some too." She said, "I would've gotten a full view."

"Ha, well admittedly - I'm starting to get a little tired."

"Wanna head back to your room or you wanna hang out here some more?"

"Man, I really want to do both."

"Dance for a little longer than head back?"

"Yeah sure, that seems fine." He grabbed her hand and started walking back to the circle which was now growing smaller. Looking past the crowd, he witnessed an interesting sight.

The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.

"Are those two?.."

"Yep, they're fuckin' for sure."

"In public?"

"It happens surprisingly often, sometimes pairs just can't help themselves."

"Damn, really living it up huh."

"Yup, especially since we're going for a convoy soon."

"Well." Cedric started, "We can worry about that tomorrow. Got a whole week."

"Did I smite you that much?" She teased.

"You might've." He answered, guiding her back to the position they were before he took his quick break.

"Liked it this way huh?" She asked.

"I did yeah."

"Well I'm not doing all the work this time, big guy."

"I'll come up with something."

Cedric and Grey danced for the next thirty minutes, the energy of the alcohol flushed through their veins as they danced - with Grey and Cedric matching each other's movements as they grinded. It stirred a small commotion, egging on some others to do the same. After a while though, they both grew tired as the energy used to dance encouraged the alcohol to slowly begin leaving their systems. They were still smashed of course, but st least the world spun just a little bit less. Grey and Cedric walked back to the spot they had claimed for the majority of the night.

"Oh man, I'm beat." Grey said, collecting her jacket.

"Yeah? I'm starting to feel the same." Cedric replied, also collecting his belongings.

"Let's just go to your room, it's closer and I don't feel like sleeping with all the vomiting drunks."

"Yeah? Sure, if you don't mind the cramped space."

"I don't think I will." Grey grinned, "We're outta here Rainy-B, thanks for the drinks!"

She waved to Rainbow as she was cleaning the bar, now much more devoid of patrons since the the party was coming to a close and many had retired to their rooms. Rainbow waved back, "Anytime, only for you Grey. Have fun you two."

"We will."

The walk back should've been five minutes, but for the tired, swaying duo it was more like fifteen. Cedric exhaled thankfully as he closed the door behind himself and Grey, its lightly magnetized strip holding it in place.

"I hope nobody barges in here." He said.

"If they do, I'll beat the shit out of them." Grey shimmied past Cedric and stripped down to her plain black underwear, a sports bra holding her furry breats in place and her boxers holding her modesty at bay.

"Stripping right off the bat?" Cedric asked.

"I'm hot, sue me."

"Yeah, I suppose you are." He responded without thought.

"Huh?" Grey lit a cigarette.

"Eh, I'm hot too." Cedric also stripped down to his underwear, and plopped onto his bed.

"I can feel it." Grey responded, sitting on his desk chair.

Cedric followed her lead and lit up a cigarette as well.

"Man, that was fun though. Didn't do a lot of dancing, but there's always next time."

"Those don't happen too often, we must be hitting something big."

"Yeah? Time to prove myself."

"You handled Bengal, I think you'll be fine."

"I hope so." He took a deep drag.

Grey eyed his crotch, "Got a little excited during the party?"

Cedric looked down at his mast, fully erect. "I did. Somehow, nobody hit on me that entire time."

"You probably spooked them after dusting Bengal. You are Scourge now, after all."

"I didn't dust him, fucked him up though. Also, you can just call me Cedric."

"Fucked him up, huh." She also took a long drag on her cigarette.

"This is too awkward, so I'm just going to be straight with you." Grey stated.

"What's up? Something wrong?" Cedric asked.

"Do you have any attraction to me at all?"

There was a long pause, as Cedric mulled over the events of the night.

"Well, we only just met. But you seem cool."

"I wanna fuck, Cedric." Grey's ears flicked, and her tail swished back and forth.

"I figured that was where this was going. But to be honest I'm surprised." He responded. He tried to keep his cool, but God was he horny.

"Why are you surprised?" She asked.

Grey stood up and sat on the bed, gesturing around his body. "This... The way I am, I'm the weird one here. I mean, why would you want to have sex with me instead of one of the other lupine males? There's plenty. Like you said, sex is normal around here. Just pick one and go."

Grey stood up straight in her seat, finishing her cigarette, "That's not how I do things. I don't just pick one and go."

"We only just met."

"True, but I thought we hit it off really good. Do you... Not think so?"

"I think we did, don't get me wrong I just..."

Cedric stopped, not sure what to say - and sighed.

"Is it because I'm a lupine?" She pressed.

"Not it's not that..." He responded, feeling somewhat intimidated.

"Goddess, I can't read your mind Cedric - just tell me what it is that's bothering you! Do you or do you not want to do it? If not that's fine, I'll just take care of it myself later. No big deal."

"I wanna fuck you Grey, I REALLY want to, God do I want to so bad."

"Oh." She squeaked, her tail waving faster.

"Okay, well - we both want to do it so..."

Grey got up from the chair and removed the rest of her clothing, laying it on his chair before joining him on the bed. She rested a palm against his back, rubbing up and down.

"What's wrong?"

"I... Damn it. Well, for starters - I'm... Still a virgin..."

"Oh. Sorry. Seeing you, didn't think that you know - you hadn't done it before. Shit, that's my bad I'll get my clothes back on, no big deal. I get it."

"Grey, wait no." He tried to grab her arm as gently as possible as she stood up, "That's not only the thing. I mean, honestly..." He started.

Grey, thoroughly confused, sat back down - cocking her head. Cedric swallowed deeply, steeling his resolve for what he was about to say.

"I think... You're beautiful, honestly."

"Oh, okay so... What gives? Look this is awkward enough, it'd be a lot easier if you would just say it. Whatever it is, I can take it."

"Alright well, it's something that Captain Garerra said to me. I've been thinking about it, a lot. Part of the reason I've been denying advances is because it's been from people I didn't even know. You, well we've spent literally the entire day together since I've been here and we've had nothing but things to talk about, and it felt good. But you being a Korellei..."

"Okay? You're one too though?"

"I'm... Not."

"Okay?.."

"I'm a homo sapien, a human. An entirely different species. My strength isn't because I'm a mutant, it's because I'm not even a Korellei. If I get too excited I don't want to... Break you, for lack of better words."

"Oh. I didn't realize, I'm really sorry."

"It's fine, there's no way you could have known. Even the Empire doesn't apparently. But God, I'm so horny from the alcohol, and the dancing..."

"You're just afraid of hurting me."

"Yeah..."

"Damn, haven't had someone say that before."

A long moment of silence held the tiny room still in time.

Grey rested a paw on his cheek, "I still want to try, could be fun. I'm super horny too."

Cedric enclosed his hand around hers, vehemently weighing the decision. He wanted to, he really wanted to so damn bad!

"We're hitting the convoy in a week, right?" Cedric asked.

"Yeah, according to the captain. She's never lied about anything before."

Cedric remembered his time with Faring, and the activation of the Phage. He remembered Tern, and the time he spent with her. Both excellent women of their own worth, both taken from him in the blink of an eye. He wasn't going to have any regrets with this one, not this time.

"Okay." Cedric said, disposing of his cigarette.

"Aye?" Grey confirmed.

Before more time could pass, he brought her hand close and closed his eyes, before slowly moving closer to her muzzle and connecting with his lips. Feeling through her short hair and soft fur with his other hand, he felt her ears slide back and down. She followed his kiss, her lips showing to be surprisingly pliable as they interlocked with his own. They held that for a moment, before separating.

"So, how you wanna do this?" Grey cooed.

"Well, first..." Cedric relieved himself of his boxer, leaving the duo now both stark naked.

"I swear." Cedric said, "If anyone walks through that door."

"You'll dust them?" Grey smiled.

"Yeah, I'll dust them." He replied sternly.

"Okay. You wanna be the one in charge?" Grey cooed again, finding a spot under his chin to rest a finger."

"Well I haven't done this before. I've seen it of course, but never done it..."

"Hmm, okay." She said, "lean back a bit, so your legs are dangling off the bed."

He did as he was instructed. Grey raised up and sat on his lap, his member now rubbing against her slit. He had flashbacks to before, with 'Tressa'. This was much different though, this time it was out of want - not out of coercion.

Grey rubbed his soft member up and down with one of her paws.

"Comfortable?" She asked.

"Very much so."

"You still want to? You're still a virgin, we can stop now if you want. Kind of a big deal, you know?"

"No, this time I want to. I'd much rather lose it to you than anyone else."

"This time you want to?.." She inquired cautiously.

"Had a bad experience before, but that was a bit ago."

"I see. Well, I'll make this a good one then Alright?"

"Okay, I trust you Grey."

"Alex. You can call me Alex."

"Alex, that's fitting." He smiled.

"Well, talking about fitting..." She looked down to the cock she was stroking.

"Believe it or not, perfectly average."

"You're honestly smaller than I expected."

"Yeah? I'm no Farai, sorry - if Bengal is anything to go by."

Grey placed a kiss on his cheek, ears folded back. "I think it's perfect." She whispered in his ear.

"Not a fan of large cocks?"

"More like they're overrated. Just how much room do males think we have down there? Big dicks can actually be harmful. That's not to say we couldn't take something bigger, a lot of girls enjoy it that way. I just don't prefer it."

"Guess I lucked out." He chuckled.

"Honestly, I think it was me who lucked out. Stay steady now."

Grey raised slowly, eased herself onto his cock - already lubricated from the events of the night. Slowly, carefully, she hovered just above - then began to lower herself down. Grey and Cedric gasped in unison, and no words were spoken. As her vagina opened up to accept him, she lowered further down until he was fully inserted.

"Fuck me, Cedric. Goddess that feels so good."

Cedric was resting his hands behind him, holding his weight - eyes open wide.

"Fuck."

"Enjoying it that much?"

Feeling a vagina fully on his cock, Cedric had no words. He had never felt something so soft, so well-fitting, so perfectly erotic and pleasurable. Sure, he had to use his hands on a regular base to take care of his lust, but this - this went way beyond. Instinctually, he grabbed Grey by the waist - and pumped her up and down but once with a wet plap.

"Fuuuuck, that feels so good. God."

"Mhm, it's been a long time. Don't just admire me, fuck me. I'll enjoy it just as much as you will."

"Yeah? Okay then." Cedric grabbed ahold of her just a little tighter, to better support her weight. It took all of his willpower to not just go to town, potentially injuring her. On the one hand, he felt as though he was in heaven - on the other, he was frustrated he couldn't go all out in pleasure. He wanted to be instinctual, bestial - railing her through without worry. If he was to enjoy the drug-like effect of sex, he'd have to be careful.

He lifted her up and down, Grey scooped her arms underneath his own to firmly grasp his shoulders, breathing steadily. Her large breasts fully made contact with his broad chest, covering them in soft fur.

"Mh, ah. Unh. Haa, haa." She breathed, matching his rhythm. In response, Cedric released moans of his own, pushing them both further to climax.

"Alex, I think I'm already about to-"

"Go for it, don't stop."

"Yeah, here it- Fuuuuuck~"

"Perfect timing! Ah!~"

Cedric's head laid back as his cum spurt deep into her womb, Grey moaned with volume as her tail straightened and her ears folded back. Both closed their eyes - riding their climax.

Cedric continued to thrust up and down, carrying Grey with him - riding the high of his first ever climax in a woman. After several time-rending seconds, he finally began to fall off his high. The pair breathed rapaciously in sync, resting from their pairing. Cedric felt something wet begin to ooze down his cock.

"Man, that didn't last long at all... How do others go for so long?"

Breathing steadily, Grey responded. "One of us is - was - a virgin, and the other hasn't had sex in years. We did good."

"Yeah, I think we did. Still, just a few minutes though?"

"If we keep this up, we can go longer." She smiled, "Time for the other fun part." She said.

"Huh?"

Grey gently lifted herself off of Cedric, cum oozed out of her satisfied slit.

"Clean up." She rasped.

"Think the showers have anima in them still?"

Grey sat down next to him on his bed, legs slightly shaking. She leaned against him, tired and satisfied.

"Probably, but now I just wanna sleep. Unless of course, you wanna go another round?"

"I am... So tired. I'll just shower and do laundry in the morning."

"Just gonna let our cum soak into the sheets?"

"The vaporizers will get it."

"Yeah they will. We don't have to sleep immediately, but we can cuddle ya know?"

"The hardass Alex wants to cuddle huh?"

"Screw off, we cuddling or not?"

"Yeah, sounds nice."

"That's better."

Cedric laid down on the bed, his member now flaccid and thoroughly satisfied. He lifted up just enough to support his back on the headboard, and lit a cigarette. Grey laid down beside him, closest to the wall - running her hand through his chest - they bathed in the afterglow, air filled with smoke and a blanket covering their lower bodies comfortably.

"God, that felt so good. You felt so good Alex."

"Oh yeah? We could do this more often, if I can conquer that stubborn shyness of yours." She stole the cigarette from his hand, inhaling some of the smoke for herself.

"You know, I wouldn't be against it. You know, it's kind of funny."

"What is?" She handed the cigarette back to him, which he held in his right hand - running his left hand through Grey's fur idly.

"I had a best friend, my first ever. Her name was also Alex, Alex Tern."

"Alex Tern? Never heard that name before."

"I imagine you haven't. It was a long time ago."

"Not my business, but I'll listen if you share."

"Nah, it doesn't matter anymore. It was a long time ago."

"Well, if you ever change your mind."

"Yeah, maybe I'll share sometime."

They continued to cuddle for a while, idly stroking each other's bodies. Grey's muzzled open wide as she yawned with a sigh, tongue lolling out and ears flattening back.

"Man Cedric, I think it's finally time to catch some Z's."

In response, Cedric also yawned - not even bothering to cover his mouth in lieu of the now closed mask, snugged securely after dousing his cigarette butt.

"I think so. Good night, Alex."

She stretched up and placed a kiss on his lips, "That was fun, thanks. Good night." She stuffed herself under the covers resting comfortably against Cedric's body as he followed suit, covering the both of them with the blanket and securing an arm around her waist, resting it on the bedding. His forearm reached up to rest easy between her furry breasts. The both of them were out as soon as they were comfortable.
