Similarity to any person, living or dead, is coincidental.For my friend, Iron BadgerStephan, Captain of Duke William's personal guard, knelt. He could clearly see the tracks in the soft soil. His prey had run through here trying to evade him. Looking up, he saw several small broken twigs on the bushes that marked her passage. The thirty year old European badger stood and looked around. He knew his quarry. She would never be this careless. It had to be a trap. As soon as the thought crossed his mind his sensitive ears heard the telltale twang of a bowstring being released. The badger was the veteran of many ambushes. Without even thinking he dove forward and rolled. He was ripping his shield from his back and drawing his bastard sword before he was even standing again. Stephan had heard a heavy thunk behind him. He risked a quick glance over his shoulder. The tree he had been standing beside now sported a three foot long arrow. The head of the arrow was buried at least four inches into the tree trunk. If it had hit him, he would have been dead. Fortunately for him the archer had been aiming a good four pawbreadths above his head. "Damn it, Rosa! Watch where you are shooting those things!" he yelled into the pine trees of the forest. A girlish giggle was all he got in reply. Stephan heard rustling in the trees well ahead of him. From the dim murk of the forest a woman called, "Catch me if you can!" He saw a flash of white and black facial fur, and then she was gone. Stephan grinned. He always enjoyed the chase. He set his helmet firmly on his head and tightened the chin strap. The object of his quest had some nasty habits, and this forest was her home. He could face anything. Stephan jogged along the forest path in the general direction his prey was heading. He could hear the occasional rustle of disturbed trees and bushes, but he had not been able to spot her again. He kept swiveling his head and ears around in a vain attempt to locate her. Stephan heard a bowstring twang high and to his left. He looked up and lifted his shield. He caught sight of the arrow heading towards him. In a fraction of a second he realized two things. The arrow was going to land high above his head, and his right foot had just struck a rope. His quarry had set a tripline, and he had hit it hard. Stephan fell forward and landed heavily on his stomach. His armor and padding took most of the damage, but he still temporarily lost his breath in a single big "OOPH!" Instinctively he rolled off to his right to avoid any more arrows, but the only barbed thing sent his way was Rosa's taunt. "You're getting old, Captain!" she called out from the top of a nearby pine tree before disappearing back into he forest gloom. Stephan quickly got back to his feet. He ran his paws over his armor. Nothing damaged. He had to admit that Rosa was right, though. He was making more mistakes than a rookie guardfur. Stephan heard another laugh from further down the trail. He thought he knew where she was heading now. The only quick way out of this section of the forest was through a narrow gap between two steep hills. Whomever got to the gap first would have the advantage. He broke into a dead run, but he could hear his quarry far ahead of him. In seconds she would be through the gap and lost in the deep forest. Stephan suddenly heard a large commotion. Something was happening near the gap. There was a startled female yelp followed by loud cursing of a most vulgar nature. Stephan laughed. He slowed to a leisurely walk and replaced his shield on his back. He would not be needing it again in this chase. He started whistling as he now leisurely strolled towards the gap. Several woodland trails converged at the cleft between the hills to create a small open space. Into this space walked Stephan. As he had expected, Rosa was caught in the net trap he had set earlier that morning. As soon as she had hit the trip wire a rock had fallen and lifted the net up from underneath the pine needles. It had encircled Rosa and lifted her up off the ground. She was now hanging suspended waist high from an overhead branch. As soon as she saw him, she fell silent. Rosa was a twenty-three year old American badger. She was short at only five feet tall, but she was as broad shouldered as Stephan. More to his liking, her hips were wide and deliciously soft. Her breasts were a pleasant pawful. They were extremely shapely. He knew from past experience that they displayed her delicious nipples most pleasantly when she was aroused. Rosa was wearing medium green leggings, a light green shirt and a dark green jerkin to blend into the pine forest. Underneath her clothes Stephan could see her medium long gray tipped brown fur. He particularly liked her white stripe running along her muzzle and over her head before disappearing into her raven black hair. Her deliciously soft furred tail had a matching stripe to complement her facial coloration. Normally a broad grin graced her muzzle. Right now, though, she was scowling at him. Her expression promised dire consequences when she got her claws on him. "You cheated!" Rosa yelled at him as soon as he reached the spot where she was hanging. Stephan laughed. "Of course I did! You didn't think I was that clumsy today to miss your little traps, did you?" he asked her. Rosa HARUMPHED at Stephan and turned her head away. "Well, so you caught me. Big deal. Now let me down," she sullenly ordered him. "Not quite so fast. There is a little matter to resolve first. Remember a certain bet you made with me two weeks ago at the Spring Fair?" he asked her. Rosa's head whipped around. Her eyes were wide. She started cursing him in half a dozen tongues. Stephan just laughed again. He tapped her cute butt with the flat of his blade and said, "My, such a vulgar mouth for such a sweet young female. I think you could teach the barmaids a thing or three." Rosa stuck her bright red tongue out at him. Stephan just laughed harder and let her rant on for several minutes. When Rosa finally calmed down, she told Stephan, "You cannot hold me to my bet. I agreed to it under duress." Stephan frowned. "What duress?" he asked her. "Your tongue!" she yelled back at him. Stephan bent double laughing, He remembered the scene well. He had got her alone in the hayloft for an hour. They had made love in the soft hay. As he was licking her to her fifth orgasm, he had made a comment about how great it was to have caught her here. She had replied he could never catch her in her forest. As he held her just short of an orgasm, they had made a bet. Stephan straightened and between bouts of laughter managed to say, "I'm sorry, but that's not good enough. You made the bet, and now I have won. It is time to collect my prize!" Rosa growled loudly at him. She worked her bow around and notched an arrow. Since she was trapped in the net, she could not draw it back far, but she could get a good enough draw to do some serious damage. She aimed the arrow right at Stephan's heart. "Let me go, you overstuffed rug!" Rosa commanded Stephan. Stephan put his paws on his hips. She had a clean shot at his breast. "Go ahead, dear, but don't forget one thing. I'm the only one who knows where you are. Dying of dehydration while you are trapped in the net is not a pleasant way to go," he reminded her. Rosa growled again and resumed her cursing, but she also lowered her bow and unnotched the arrow. She stared straight ahead and angrily said, "Okay, you win. Now let me down!" Stephan set down his sword and shield. He climbed up the left side of the gap to where the rope was tied off. He undid the knot. The pulleys he had used to help set the trap allowed him to gently lower Rosa to the ground. He climbed back down to the ground. Rosa was struggling in the net. He pulled the heavy ropes aside and freed her. He reached down and assisted her to her feet. She stood and stared at him with murder in her eyes. He backed off and held up his paws in feigned fright. The broad grin on his muzzle belied his fear, though. Rosa shook out her long black hair. It fell to the middle of her back. She ran a paw through her hair to put it back into place. She straightened her clothes and glared at her captor. She placed her clenched fists on her thighs, and growled, "Well?!" Stephan was enjoying every second of this. It had taken him two weeks to arrange a full day pass from his Duke. He had placed the net trap this morning after he had seen her come through the gap. He had guessed correctly she would run back this way. It had taken nearly two hours to hide all the evidence of the trap behind bushes and underneath the omnipresent pine needles. Now he was ready to claim his prize for winning this round of their ongoing game Stephan asked, "Do you know how beautiful you look when you are angry, Rosa?" Rosa was momentarily taken aback. She had not expected something like that from Stephan. Her scowl softened. "Not that it is going to help you one bit this afternoon!" Stephan continued. Rosa yelped and ran at Stephan. "Why you...!" she bellowed at him. She chased the laughing male badger around the small clearing. He turned suddenly and took her in his arms. He planted a passionate kiss on her muzzle as she tried to yell at him. Her anger melted as Stephan's tongue slid into her mouth and explored its innermost recesses. Rosa suddenly found herself humming in pleasure. Stephan broke the kiss and pulled back his head to look down at the younger female. "Damn, Stephan! When you kiss me like that I can almost forgive you for tricking me," Rosa told him. Stephan replied with a twinkle in his eyes, "Don't you know, youngster? Age and experience will always overcome youth and enthusiasm!" Stephan let her go and took a half step back. "For now, though, I want what is coming to me!" he told her. "I'll give you what you really deserve!" she told him in a voice filled with the promise of unlimited bloodshed. Stephan just laughed and waited patiently. Rosa sighed, and her anger evaporated. She reached out and tapped the breastplate Stephan's armor with her right forefinger's clawtip. "First, lose the armor. I don't want it getting in the way," she said "Of your claws?" he innocently asked. Rosa grinned and replied, "No." Stephan's eyes widened slightly as he caught her drift. He walked to the edge of the clearing to his left and quickly removed his armor. He took off his helmet and placed it on a stub of a branch on a handy tree. He ran a quick paw through his short dark blond hair. Many preferred a longer cut to give additional padding, but he preferred a short cut so it would not get in the way of his eyes. His iron gauntlets came off next. Stephan carefully placed them on the ground beside a fallen tree. He used his fingers to undo the fastenings of the breastplate. He lay the heavy metal armor on top of a fallen tree. His shin guards came off next. He placed them beside his gauntlets. Finally Stephan removed the heavy chain mail that made up most of his armor. He carefully laid each piece on the log beside the breastplate. The armor had cost him most of his life's savings when he was young, but at least three times in the past it had turned a fatal blow and saved his life. As a warrior, it was his most prized and valuable possession. Stephan continued to remove the padding underneath his armor and the other garments he was wearing. He piled them on the ground beside the log. He stopped when he was down to just his breeches and turned back to Rosa. Rosa watched Stephan undress. His back was to her so he did not see her predatory gaze. His body fur was more grey than hers. His paws and feet were a pure black that matched his belly fur. His face was mostly black with a wide white stripe running from his nose straight back to his hairline. His muzzle had thin stripes of white fur along the bottom edge that flared to cover his cheeks. She loved how the tips of his ears were accented with white. She had never told him, but she thought his little black nose was cute when it twitched in anticipation of their mutual pleasure like it was doing now. Stephan was heavily muscled even for a badger. He kept his claws close trimmed so he could grab his weapons and shield easily. His tail was shorter than hers, but she liked how bushy it was. The white stripe along his tail was much wider than hers. It covered the entire upper half of his tail and even wrapped around the sides a bit. She liked the way it made his tail flash when he forgot himself and allowed his tail to develop a life of its own when he was excited or animated. Stephan set aside the last of his clothing . He walked over to another fallen log about ten feet in front of Rosa. He sat down. Stephan looked up at Rosa. He grinned in anticipation and asked, "Well?" Rosa sighed. "If I must," she said in mock exasperation as she reached for the buttons of her jerkin. In fact, she was already feeling the heat building in her crotch in anticipation. She turned away from him as she undid the front of her jerkin to hide her little victory smile. She wanted this as much as him, maybe even more. Stephan watched as Rosa fiddled with her buttons. He knew she was playing with him, but he did not mind. His gaze kept dropping to her wide hips and long, trim black furred tail. The narrow white stripe was a beacon to his searching eyes. It lead his gaze straight to the prize that awaited beneath her tail. He would enjoy what was to come all the more for the delay. Still, he felt his penis stiffening within his sheath and was anxious to start. Rosa pulled off her jerkin and tossed it onto the pile of Stephan's clothes. No sense getting her clothes dirty. She undid the ties of her blouse and pulled it up over her head. Being poor, she was naked beneath the blouse. Stephan enjoyed the sight of her head in profile above her wide shoulders as she looked to her left and tossed her blouse aside. He was struck by her beauty, but he wanted a different view. "Turn around!" he ordered her. Rosa looked over her left shoulder at Stephan. She glared at him, but she did turn around as he had commanded her. She slid her paws under her firm breasts and cupped them. She took a couple of steps towards Stephan and leaned down until her tits were a mere pawspan from his muzzle. "Do you want these" she asked him saucily as she bounced her breasts up and down repeatedly just beyond his half open muzzle. Stephan involuntarily started to drool. He loved how well her breasts fit his paws and how firm they felt under his grasping fingers. He reached up and pulled Rosa's paws away from her breasts. He replaced them with his own paws. Stephan gently stroked the thin, soft fur that covered her mammary glands. He could feel her nipples harden as his palms rubbed over them. He played with Rosa's breasts for several minutes. He stroked and played with her hard nipples for a bit. Rosa was getting hot and bothered from his gentle touch. She groaned in pure desire as he massaged her tits deeply with his finger tips. Stephan was enjoying himself, but it was time to get to the main course. He slid his paws down Rosa's breasts and took her nipples between his thumbs and forefingers. He gave them a hard tweak before releasing them and leaning back. Rosa yipped at the sudden pain, but it passed quickly. "Continue!" Stephan ordered Rosa. Rosa snorted, but her paws moved to the rope holding up her pants. She defiantly planted her feet spread wide. She undid the knot and let the rope fall to the ground. Rosa was not going to give into Stephan without a bit of a show. She slid her fingers underneath the tight fitting waist of her pants. She wriggled her hips back and forth provocatively as she slowly pushed her pants down over her hips. Stephan watched in anticipation as finger width after finger width of light gray belly fur was revealed. He was so fixated on her crotch he missed the wicked grin on Rosa's muzzle. At last the top of Rosa's pussy slit came into view. Stephan sighed in contentment as Rosa's gyrations revealed more and more of her nether regions to his lustful gaze. He grinned in pure pleasure when she turned to one side and languorously pulled her tail up through the hole in the back of her trousers. He loved how she paused to fluff it up and play with it. Watching Rosa play with her tail always excited him. Satisfied that her tail fur was back in place, Rosa resumed pulling her pants down over her shapely legs. She turned to face away from Stephan, but she continued to watch him over her right shoulder. She slowly slid the last of the fabric off her lower flanks and over her thighs. She threw Stephan a quick grin before bending over and pushing her pants down to her ankles in one quick shove. With calculated indifference, she also happened to raise her tail high into the air to reveal her tail hole and cunny slit to Styephan's randy gaze. Rosa took her time pulling her pants off her ankles. She wanted to give Stephan a good view of her cunt and ass hole. She knew how much her loved to see them displayed for him. Rosa stood and tossed her pants onto the growing pile of clothes and armor. She now stood before Stephan naked as the day she was whelped. She glanced down at Stephan's lap. She was not surprised to see a large bulge in his breeches. His cod piece was in the pile of clothing, so there was no question what was making his tent. Rosa grinned. This promised to be a delightful afternoon. Stephan crooked a finger at Rosa and beckoned her to join him. She took two steps and stood before him. He slid his left paw into her right paw and guided her down to lay face down over his lap. Her head was to his left, and her tail was to his right. She wriggled her body a bit to settle herself into a comfortable position. The large muscles of Stephan's thighs provided a nice cushion underneath her belly. She placed her paws palm down on the soft pine needles of the forest floor, She extended her legs out behind her and pointed her toes. Rosa felt Stephan grab her tail and bend it back until it lay flat against her spine. Stephan's powerful left arm wrapped around her waist to trap her tight against his legs and body. She was not going anywhere until he decided she would be allowed to do so. She trembled slightly in a combination of anticipation and fear that sent a small thrill through her body. She closed her eyes and waited. Stephan ran his right paw over Rosa's flanks. He loved the feel of her pelt against his palm. He slid his paw between her legs and forced them open slightly. He rubbed the edge of his forefinger against her slit. His paw came back covered with her juices. She was ready for him. He ran his paw over her tail hole and heard her sharp intake of breath. Stephan grinned. It was time. Stephan raised his right paw and brought it down sharply on Rosa's right flank. The sound of his palm striking her unprotected flesh echoed off the rock of the hills. It was joined by the sound of Rosa's yelp of pain mixed with just a little pleasure. Stephan grinned. In the village and castle he always had to gag Rosa when they played their games. Here in the depths of the forest she could yell and scream all she wanted without drawing any attention. He would be treated to her vocal cries as well as the sight of her rump jumping beneath his paw and the feel of her body grinding against his. His cock hardened in anticipation of the pleasures to come. Stephan brought back his paw and delivered a blow to Rosa's left flank near the base of her tail. He struck harder and was rewarded with a squeal from Rosa. He grinned as he swatted her dead center in the middle of her ass with a hard third blow. Her body jumped, and she screamed, but her scream rapidly turned into a moan of pleasure. She was enjoying receiving her spanking as much as he was enjoying delivering it. Stephan struck all over Rosa's ass with a series of quick blows using just the tips of his fingers. The blows caused very little or no pain, but they excited Rosa and got the blood flowing into her ass. Soon felt like it had a nice little red glow. She could also feel her cunt juices flowing down her inner thighs and starting to soak her fur. Stephan could also feel Rosa's juices dampening his right leg. He grinned. She was ready for the serious stuff. He gripped her harder and lifted his paw high in the air. He brought it down hard on her tail hole. She jumped and screamed with both pain and pleasure. Stephan slowly rained down a series of blows on Rosa's ample ass. He systematically covered her entire behind with strikes of his battle hardened paws. She started throwing her head about in a desperate attempt to relieve the pain in her ass after the first few swats, but it did no good. After the tenth blow she started to desperately kick with her legs to try to evade Stephan's paw. Stephan paused for a moment to trap her legs with his right leg. This position had the added advantage of pulling the skin over Rosa's abundant posterior even tighter. As Stephan continued spanking Rosa, the forest silence was torn asunder with her uncontrollable weeping. Underlying her pitiful cries, though, was a full throated growl of pure lust. She started to clench her thighs and buttocks hard as each blow landed. Soon she worked herself up into a pure sexual frenzy. The line between pleasure and pain was erased, and each strike of Stephan's paw lifted her ever closer to her first orgasm. She raised her head up as far as she could and clenched her teeth in anticipation of her release. Stephan paused for a fraction of a second. The delay put Rosa off guard just a bit. When the swat of his paw fell on her lower ass and the back edge of her pussy lips, she was unprepared for it. The sensations it caused in her ass and crotch were enough to finish the job the other blows had begun. Rosa screamed in pure pleasure as waves of pleasure ran from her lower torso up her body to overwhelm the pleasure centers of her brain. Dimly Rosa was aware of Stephan's spanking her upper thighs and the lower curve of her ass cheeks. Each blow sent another wave of thrilling pleasure up her spine. With Stephan's help it seemed like her orgasm lasted for hours. Eventually her body could no longer sustain the delectation of her orgasm. She collapsed like a limp doll over Stephan's lap. Only his strong grip prevented her from sliding off of his lap onto the ground. Stephan lifted Rosa up and sat her on the log. The rough bark of the log against her tender ass sent a sting of pain through her body, but she was too spent to do anything more than lean forward to try to relieve as much of the pressure as possible. Stephan stood and went to his pile of clothes. He rummaged around until he found the small silver flask for which he was looking. He undid the stopper and placed the neck to Rosa's lips. Without thinking she took a deep drink. Rosa sat bolt upright. Fire ran down her throat. She coughed as the strong alcohol ran down her throat and into her stomach. "What the hell are you trying to do?" she yelled at Stephan. "Trying to revive you, of course," he replied. "Well, you certainly got my attention!" she shot back. "And get you even more horny," Stephan continued as if she had not spoken. Rosa's eyes opened wide. "What was in that drink?" she screamed at him. He chuckled and said, "Just the best aphrodisiac that I could find at the apothecary." Rosa glared at Stephan for several seconds before speaking. "You know you did not need it, don't you?" she asked him in a low voice. "I always prefer to come prepared. That's how I got to be Captain of the Guard," he replied with a half laugh. Stephan leaned over and gave Rosa a passionate kiss. He stood back up straight and took a deep draught from the flask. Rosa's eyes widened in shock. He grinned down at her and said, "I plan to pleasure you all night long." as he took another swig from his flask. Rosa could not stay angry at Stephan. She grinned back up at him and asked in an innocent little voice while batting her eyes at him, "Before or after you fall asleep like last time?" Stephan nearly choked in shock. Liquid flew from his muzzle as he coughed hard. He placed his fists on his hips and glared down at Rosa in mock anger. He splutter out as he ripped off his breeches, "Why you...! That's it! That's it! You need to learn your proper place now! Turn over!" Rosa turned over and lay across the log with her hips even with the top of the log. The log was almost two feet in diameter, so her hips were at a good height for Stephan. She propped up her upper torso by placing her forearms on the far side of the log. She felt Stephan grab her knees and spread her legs almost uncomfortably wide. He grabbed her tail and pushed it off to her left side. Stephan leaned over and slid his fingers under Rosa's pussy. He ran them back and forth over her cunt until they were well coated with her juices. He shifted his paw upward. The tip of his middle finger touched the center of the pink rose of Rosa's ass hole. Involuntarily she flinched and gasped. He just grinned. Stephan gently worked the tip of his finger around Rosa's tail hole. He took his time and allowed her muscles to fully relax. Rosa looked back over her right shoulder and watched him. Her gaze was increasingly drawn to the long, thick shaft emerging from Stephan's sheath. The pink of his penis stood out against the dark black fur of his belly. She licked her lips in anticipation. Stephan looked around the clearing. He spotted a short piece of fallen branch about two fingers in diameter. He picked it up and held the branch to Rosa's muzzle. "Open!" he ordered her. Rosa opened her muzzle as ordered. Stephan slid the piece of wood into her mouth. She clamped her teeth down around it to hold it firmly in place. Stephan pushed his forefinger against Rosa's tail hole. There was just a moment of resistance before it slid into her rectum. Rosa gave a long, throaty moan of pleasure around her gag as she felt his finger wriggle around inside her ass. Stephan paused when Rosa's anal muscles contracted around his finger. They soon relaxed again. He began to slowly push and pull his finger in and out of her ass hole. He felt her muscles loosen further. Soon he added a second and then a third finger sliding into her tail hole. After a few minutes her added his pinky to make four fingers pulling Rosa's anus wide open. Rosa was back on the edge of having another orgasm. She was biting down hard on the branch to help hold off her impending climax. She stared at Stephan and growled low in her throat. Her unspoken message was unmistakable. Stephan removed his fingers and squatted behind and above Rosa. He placed his left paw on her left flank. He used his right paw to push his fully erect cock downwards and guide the tip to Rosa's open ass hole. She tensed her body as she felt the pressure of Stephan's prick against her butt. Her teeth bit into the wood in her mouth. She always needed something to bite on or she would damage her teeth and tongue in the excess of her sexual thrills. Stephan pushed forward until the head of his prick was settled into her rectum. He paused a moment so he could shift his right paw to her right flank. Rosa's claws dug into the bark of the log as she prepared herself. Stephan firmly grabbed Rosa's waist. With a loud grunt he shoved two finger lengths more of his eight inch cock into Rosa's ass with a single hard thrust. Rosa bit down hard on her wooden bit. It served to muffle her cries of pleasure as her second orgasm took her. Stephan continued thrusting hard. Each hard shove would bury another couple of finger lengths of his badger cock into Rosa's rear end. To Rosa it felt as if he were shoving a tree up her ass. She always loved how full she felt when he took her this way, though, and would not trade this for any other form of sex play. She concentrated hard on relaxing her muscles, but Stephan was rather large in diameter, and she was good and tight. The combination made for a great deal of pleasurable friction once they got going, but it also made it difficult for him to hilt his shaft in her tail hole the first time. Stephan dug his fingers deep into Rosa's soft fleshy flanks. It took him several minutes, but eventually his shaft was buried within Rosa's willing ass and his lower abdomen pushed hard against her plump flanks. He paused to allow Rosa some time to recover. Stephan slowly withdrew his cock. Rosa fought to keep the warm shaft buried within her, but a slap on her right flank stopped her foolishness. Stephan withdrew moist of his dick. He reached down underneath Rosa and covered his right paw with more juices from her dripping snatch. He coated his shaft with them before ever so slowly pushing forward again. Rosa felt Stephan's cock slide forward and fill her again. The branch dropped from her muzzle, and she let out a hearty groan of pure pleasure. Stephan continued to slowly thrust and withdraw as he fucked Rosa's ass. He kept coating his cock with her juices until he was finally able to thrust freely deep into her butt. He quickened the pace and was rewarded with grunts and groans of pleasure from Rosa. Every time he withdrew she would clench her ass cheeks to increase their pleasure and slow his withdrawal. After several minutes Stephan was also growling as his sexual desire mounted. He felt an unmistakable pressure building in his balls. He lifted his muzzle high and howled as he let loose a load of jism deep into Rosa's ass. Rosa joined in with cries of her own as yet another orgasm took her. Stephan continued thrusting for a couple of more minutes, but soon he felt his cock wilting. His limp prick slid out of Rosa's ass. He sat down on the ground with a grunt. He was tired, but he reached out and pulled Rosa off the log and back onto his lap. He encircled her waist loosely with his arms and started to kiss her on the muzzle. "You keep doing that, Captain," she languidly told him, "you might get lucky again tonight." Stephan just grinned as he rained soft kisses down on her muzzle and right cheek. After a few minutes he leaned back and drew her down to the soft pine needle mattress of the forest floor along with him. She turned so that she lay belly to belly with her lover. "That was a lot of fun," she told him. "Yep!" he said to her with a truly silly grin on his muzzle. Rosa could not help it. She buried her muzzle in his deep chest fur and laughed hard and long. "Oh, so having sex with me is funny now?" he teased her. Rosa raised her muzzle to look at him. "Funny? No, never that." She kissed him gently. "Exciting? Exhilarating? The best thing in my life? Yes. Always." Rosa's kisses moved from Stephan's muzzle to his neck. She pushed him over onto his back and slid onto his chest. He lay still underneath her as she started nipping him repeatedly. He was tired, but her love bites were exciting him. It would not be long before he was ready again, and there was something he had to talk to her about before then. "Rosa?" He heard a muffled "Um?" from the vicinity of his Adam's apple. He reached underneath Rosa's jowl and lifted her muzzle so she had to look him in the face. "Rosa? We have to talk." Rosa lay her forearms on Stephan's chest and intertwined her fingers. She lay her lower jaw down on top of her paws. She was watching him with a mixture of love and lust in her eyes. "What do you want to talk about, Stephan?" she asked him while batting her eyes. She licked her lips to show him where her interests lay right now. Stephan knew the dangers of angering an aroused female badger, especially one laying on top of him with her muzzle less than a pawspan from his throat, but he had to talk with her. "Rosa, you know that the King is going to order the Duke to clean out this forests of 'vagabonds'," he started. Rosa looked off to her left and made a rude nose. Stephan reached up and turned her head back to face him. "Don't turn away from me, Rosa. The Duke is a kindly fur, but he is also the vassal of the King. When the time comes -- and it will soon! -- that the King orders his forest cleared, the Duke will order me and the rest of his guards to sweep the forest free of any and all furs that do not have the King's permission to be here. We will have to hunt you down and 'eliminate' you." Rosa interrupted Stephan and said, "No, he won't! Heck, he talked to me a couple of weeks ago. He knows where I and my family live and what we do here! He could have had me arrested then and there. He didn't." "The Duke is doing his best to ignore the reality of what is happening. Disloyal furs and spies for the Duke's enemies are telling the King the truth of what is happening. The Duke will be forced to clear out the forest or face charges of treason that will wreck him and his entire family. It would even cost him his title. Which do you think he will do?" Rosa scowled at Stephan. She knew he was right and hated him for it. She had come to love the forest almost as much as she loved Stephan. "We will stand and fight!" she declared. Stephan nodded in agreement. "Yes, I am sure you will. And a fair number of guards that are under my command, many of whom we both call friends, will die at your paws. But when the day is over you and every other fur who lives in this forest will be dead." Stephan spoke with calm certainty. Rosa was too good a warrior not to know that he was right. She and the other displaced villagers stood no chance against the Duke's men. They were too few and too poorly armed. Rosa buried her muzzle in Stephan's chest fur again. He could feel her sobbing. He reached up and gently stroked her back to calm her. After several minutes she collected herself. "Stephan?" "Yes, Dear Heart?" "When the time comes, will you promise me that you will kill me and my family?" she asked him. "I can count on you to make our deaths swift and as painless as possible." Stephan held her tight against his body. He nuzzled her just behind her left ear. "If it comes to that, I will do it, but I and the Duke have a better proposition for you," he replied. Rosa raised up her head. Tears streamed down her muzzle. "What?" she asked incredulously. Stephan grinned up at his lover. "It seems that someone made a mistake and built thirty two room huts about two dozen furlongs to the north of the castle. The Duke is rather vexed. It appears he has no one in the duchy to live in them. Worse, the huts are in a part of his forest he has been wanting to clear for farming. He is going to need a lot of strong furs to do the work, but no one has come forward to volunteer." Rosa did some quick figuring. There were about two dozen displaced families living in the forest. Another dozen furs were ready to pair off and start families of their own. The same exact number of families as the huts waiting in the forest. She cursed the overly crafty Duke long and loud, but her tone was light and filled with admiration. He was literally pulling their tails out of the fire under the King's muzzle. When she was done venting, Rosa looked down at Stephan. They exchanged grins. "Well, two dozen furlongs is not too far. We should have a good chance to see each other frequently." Stephan looked away. Suddenly he seemed extremely uncomfortable. Rosa's grin slowly faded. Was he getting rid of her? "Actually, I was hoping I could convince you to do something a little different," he told her in a subdued tone. "What?" she asked in confusion. "Well, you are probably the finest bowman in the Duke's lands. It would be a folly to waste that ability. And we need more archers for our army. You can help train them ... ," he told her. Rosa frowned down at Stephan. "Are you offering me a commission in the Duke's army?" she asked. Stephan cleared his throat several times before answering, "Well, yes. You would act as a trainer for the new recruits, the levies and others as needed. You would have a position under my lieutenant in charge of training. Among other things." Rosa's brow wrinkled in confusion. A commission for a female warrior was uncommon but hardly unheard of. Many of the female furs of the nobility were noted warriors in their own right. What bothered her was there was obviously something else that Stephan wanted to say, but he could not seem to get it out. "What other things?" she asked directly. Stephan took a deep breath and let it out slowly. He screwed up all of his courage and said, "Well, the position would make you an officer. That means you get or share officer quarters. It seems stupid to me to waste a set of officer quarters when I have three bedrooms and plenty of other space in my quarters. So I was thinking you could move in with me." Rosa racked her brains. There was something she was missing. The answer slowly dawned on Rosa. Her eyes grew wide. "Captain Stephan! Don't two officers of different gender that share quarter have to be married?" she asked. Stephan suddenly wanted to look anywhere but at the female fur laying atop him. "Well, yes, actually..." Whatever else Stephan was about to say was lost as Rosa's head dove down at an angle. She opened her muzzle and grabbed his in it. She French kissed him long and hard. His eyes flew open wide in shock at her ardent embrace. Rosa finally came up for air several minutes later. She grinned down at Stephan, "Yes, you crazy badger!" she said. "Yes? Yes what?" he asked in confusion. "Yes, I will marry you, of course!" Rosa grabbed Stephan and rolled over with him. She lay on her back beneath her male badger. "Now shut up and fuck me!" she cried as she reached down and vigorously stroked his sheath. Stephan responded the only way one can when faced with an oversexed elemental force of nature. He grabbed her and pulled Rosa close. He passionately kissed her. She continued to stroke his sheath and balls. Soon the pink tip of his cock was sliding out of his sheath again. Stephan rolled over onto his right side and pulled Rosa over with him. He reached out to play with her breasts. He cupped them in his paw and stroked them. She moaned in pleasure. As soon as her pink nipples appeared, Stephan lowered his muzzle and started to suckle on her pert breasts. Rosa's eyes rolled back up into her head. She loved the way Stephan ran his tongue tip over the very end of her nipples. It suddenly crossed her mind that in a few months her breasts could be swollen to truly titanic size as their firstborn suckled in earnest. Warm thoughts of motherhood mixed with pure lust as her crotch caught fire again. Stephan pushed Rosa back down so she lay with her back on the soft pine needles. He continued to suckle on her left breast, but he started to run his left paw over her right breast. He stroked, massaged and played with it. He stopped suckling on her left breast and started to instead nuzzle her left breast and cleavage. She laughed as his muzzle pushed hard against her tender flesh. She gasped in shock, though, when he gave her a gentle love nip on her breast. Stephan continued to nip her left breast while pleasuring her right breast. The conflicting signals from her bosom were driving her nuts. She was no longer certain what was pleasure and what was pain. Rosa was certain what she felt rubbing against her belly, though. Stephan's cock was up and ready again, and so was she. She reached down and grabbed his shaft. She pulled him down to her waiting slit. She was already open and her juices were flowing fast and furious. Stephan shifted his body around so he knelt between Rosa's legs. He propped himself up on his arms and looked down at his mate to be. She grinned up at him and asked, "What are you waiting for? Get busy consummating our engagement!" Stephan needed no further encouragement. He slid his shaft into Rosa's steamy cunny. There was virtually no resistance as he hilted his shaft in her. His balls bounced against the bottom curves of her still smarting ass cheeks. Rosa raised her legs and encircled Stephan's waist. She reached up and grabbed his shoulders as well. "You," she declared, "are not getting away from me tonight or any other night now!" Stephan was a bit shocked at her possessiveness, but the strong thrusts of her hips against him turned his attention elsewhere. He matched her rhythm and soon his prick was noisily sliding in and out of her cunt. He lowered his muzzle and resumed licking and nuzzling Rosa's solid breasts. His rump lifted high in the air as he repeatedly thrust deep into Rosa. Soon their rhythm became faster and more urgent as each felt the pressure building within their bodies. Stephan was lifting Rosa's butt clear of the ground and she was yelping in pleasure when their mutual orgasm struck. Their bodies momentarily went rigid before they resumed their sexual dance together. Their cries intermingled in the gathering gloom of the warm evening. A few minutes later the last of Stephan's jism spurted out into the depths of Rosa's pussy. He collapsed in exhaustion. Rosa was momentarily pinned against the ground by his weight. He rolled off and lay beside her on her left. "Damn, that was good," Rosa commented to no one in particular. "Yeah, it was," Stephan replied breathlessly. Rosa turned her head to face Stephan. "I wonder if we will ever be able to duplicate it again?" Rosa asked with just a hint of sadness in her voice. Stephan turned his head to face his love and grinned. "Well, my quarters have thick walls, a thick door, an A-frame with plenty of rope and rings, and a cabinet full of paddles ... ," he informed her. Rosa rolled over and pinned Stephan to the ground with her weight as she kissed him passionately again. Her future as his mate promised many more delightful spankings. The End |
