Thread: Big Bad, Little Red, and the Hunters. (Fates.Gamble and Gunner)

Aerics head jerked up with a start when he heard the front door slam shut. His heart was racing as he was jostled out of his very sound, intoxicated slumber. The giggle of a familiar voice told him it was Catty, and memories of their night came flooding through his head like a waterfall. Part of him wanted to hop up and go out to greet her, yet he could still feel the alcohol rippling through his furry body like a pleasant little vibration. So he simply stretched out in bed, lamenting over the fact she was left to find him as a dog instead of a man. And oh man was he really bummed about that when he began shedding off her layers of clothing. Stupor or not, his green eyes were open wide in focus, drinking in the silhouette of her naked body in the dark room as she shimmied out of her skirts and everything else. Dont think about it, dont think about it Aeric tried to tell himself, rolling over on one side and shutting his eyes tight. Hopefully sleep would find him just as quickly as before. There was a little bit of a relief as his perky ears picked up her retreating footsteps and the sound of running water as she got ready for bed. He thought he might be tired enough to drift back to sleep before she finished, but nope. It all got so much worse as she simply dropped into bed and nestled up to him. So not helping me not think about it He realized as she felt her bare skin rubbing against him. Beyond all temptation he managed to ignore the fact Catty was lying next to him likely lost in thoughts about the mysterious man she met at the bar if the pleasant mumbles she made in her sleep were anything to go by. It was tough but he ignored the sound of those too, eventually reclaiming his own repose. His dreamscape was as peculiar as ever. Once more, Aeric saw himself as a massive wolf feared by all. Only this time, there were no chains to hold him down. With a fierce joy in his heart, he ran wild and free. When he threw back his head and howled, it was not the voice of Fenrir that shook the cosmos. This time, they trembled before Skoll. Like mice, the stars fled before his mighty jaws, scurrying as he ran across the skies. But there was only one star worthy enough for his prey. Enormous and beautiful, hed chased the sun across the heavens for as long as he could remember. Yet it seemed no matter how close he could get to his beautiful Sol, she remained one step ahead. This time was no different. The shadowy wolf ran with all his might, the labor of his breathing practically silent next to the beating of his heart. He was so close so close yet the Sun evaded him as though a treat tauntingly pulled by string. He knew that catching Sol was everything the key to breaking his fathers chains and allowing the Arch Wolf the reclaim his rightful throne. This purpose gave him strength, and beyond all possibility, he was finally gaining on his prey. His strong paws tore through the sky as he ran, jaws snarling as he came within lunging distance. The heat of the sun sizzled across his fur, but he didnt care as he made a huge leap and finally caught her. The heavens fell into permanent obscurity as the wolf came crashing to the Earth with his prize. But as they collided with the ground, Aeric realized he was no wolf at all but his normal human self. Nor was it the sun he held within his grasp. Instead his hands were wrapped tightly around Cattys delicate throat. Her blue eyes were vast like the oceans, her hair the halo of fire that had been luring him across the skies all this time. She didnt look terrified as she lay there at the mercy of her carnivorous captor. If anything she looked daring and wanting, her body arched to offer herself up to the wolf that had fought so hard to claim her. And Aeric was keen to oblige, his hands releasing her throat and wandering across her bare body as their mouths came crashing together in a dance of passion. Yet while the lovers succumbed to their desires, the world was plunged into a lingering darkness the beautiful, life-sustaining light of Sol having at long last been devoured. It was hard to tell what was dream and what was reality as Aerics eyes cracked open to find a pitch black world. Somehow he had shifted in the night, finding himself in the form of a man again just like his dream. And just like his dream, he was pressed tight against Catty, one arm draped down her bare body. He could tell by the flutter of her eyes she was in a light state of sleep herself. He couldnt say what pushed his mind into it perhaps it was how real everything felt in his mind just moments ago. But for whatever crazy reason he pushed forward, his lips pressing back into hers just as softly as when theyd bid their farewells back at the club. But he didnt stop there this time. He coaxed her into the kiss, opening his mouth to tease the tip of his tongue along her lips while one of his warm hands graced its way down her silky body to grip her soft ass. He pressed himself closer, wondering where this bold course of action would leave him. Who knew what would happen if she woke up to realize exactly who was in her bed right now?
