&lt;br /&gt;
No matter how many times I checked my math, the answer came out the same. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I had flunked my Calculus II mid-term exam so badly that, even if I got straight 100s for the rest of the semester, my final grade would be too low to keep my scholarship.  Without it, there was no way my family could pay my tuition at a private liberal arts college like Murchison U.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My roommate Scott heard me groan, and asked what was wrong.  I explained, and he let out a low whistle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Damn!” he said.  “What are you going to do?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Transfer to UT or A&amp;amp;M, I guess.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“That sucks. You‘ve been a good roommate.” He went back to studying, then a few minutes later said, “You need a cougar.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A what?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A cougar.  A rich woman to pay your bills.  The female equivalent of a sugar daddy.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Oh, stop it!&amp;quot; I yelled,  &amp;quot;How the heck could I attract a woman like that?&amp;quot; I was after all, a scrawny, somewhat nerdy engineering major.  &amp;quot;Besides,  that&#039;s just wrong!&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He just smiled and went back to his studying, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A few days later, he flashed me a big grin and showed me an ad on Craigslist. “Cougar wanted,” it said. “Nice but shy SWM, NS, college student seeks sugar mommy for …” I didn’t bother reading the rest. &amp;quot;Come one!” I said. “Did you do that?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yep! And you have a response already!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It took him a few days to convince me to let him reply for me. The next day, he told me that I had a lunch date Saturday at a Riverwalk café. I almost didn’t go, but I figured, what did I have to lose? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that is how I met Ashley. I was wearing my best jeans, a halfway decent button-down shirt, and a tie. I was a few minutes late. I’d like to say it was because I missed a bus connection, but it was mostly because I had trouble getting the knot in my tie right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Years ago, the City of San Antonio made plans to bury the San Antonio River through downtown. A group of insightful women saw that it could be more and convinced the city to do otherwise. Now it is an entertainment district one level below the street. The river has walkways on both sides, lined with restaurants, bars and shops.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked down the steps from the street and saw a slender woman sitting at a table set for two.  Her back was to me, so my first impression was tawny blond hair gathered in a silver clip at neck level, and hanging about halfway down the back of her white silk blouse.  She was wearing a denim skirt just barely too short and tight for modesty, and cowboy boots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked up to the table, and she smiled up at me. “Are you Jake?” she asked. Her eyes matched her blue topaz pendant and earings.  She was somewhere in her mid-thirties, and very attractive, but not quite gorgeous.  That was a relief.  I always get awkward and tongue-tied around beautiful women. “Yes, ma’am,” I replied. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Then, have a seat. And lose the tie,” she said. “And don’t call me ma’am.” To be honest, I was glad she told me to take the tie off. I hate wearing ties. They feel like an inverted noose arund my neck.  Also, it was getting rather warm in the sun.  We spent a while in small talk until the waiter came over.  She ordered for me, something Italian sounding and a glass of wine.  I started to say that I was under 21, but she silenced me with a look.  The waiter certainly looked like he wasn’t going to ask any questions. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The meal was delicious. It was a mixture of fresh vegetables, pasta and steak in a red sauce. Not a jar sauce you’d buy down in the HEB supermarket, but a sauce made from freshly diced tomatoes, herbs and spices, and red wine. We chatted some more while finishing out meals. After the waiter cleared the plates, her demeanor changed. Suddenly all business, she asked, “So, Jake, what do you want from me?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Instantly, a cat got my tongue. I had no idea what to say. Eventually, I managed to tell her the story about failing my Calc mid-term, losing my scholarship and my roommate’s solution. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“So, you’re looking for someone to pay your way through college,” she said. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I don’t know what I’m looking for, ma’am. It‘s just that I like Murch U. I want to finish my degree there, and I don‘t know how to pay for it. When Scott said he had set up the date with you, I figured I could always say no if I felt uncomfortable about it. At worst, I would be out an afternoon and the price of lunch.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“What’s Scott’s phone number?” she asked, pulling a high-end smartphone from her purse. I told her, and she called him. First, she verified that Scott had indeed placed the Craigslist ad and set me up. Then, she asked all sorts of questions about me like she was checking a job candidate’s references. She thanked Scott, put her phone in her purse, then looked at me for several long, awkward minutes. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m actually a Murch alumna, class of ‘99, so I understand why you’d want to stay. I like you, Jake. I’ll tell you what. You’re tuition is paid through the end of the semester, right? Let’s consider that your probation. If we get along, you work hard for me, and you pull up your Calc grade as best you can, I’ll think about sponsoring you for the fall semester. In return, you&#039;ll work part time as my personal assistant. If it doesn‘t work out, well, I know someone in the Admissions Office at A&amp;amp;M.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, that is how it started. A few afternoons each week, I helped her with her real estate business. I set up A/V and computer equipment at her business meetings, did internet research, ran errands for her, and was her general all-around gofer. Occasionally, I provided company for dinner, but the one thing I was both hoping for and afraid of never happened. She never came on to me. In fact, she only touched me a handful of times, never flirted and rarely even joked about sex. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She called me into her office after finals were over. She said, “You know, you’ve been a big help. I would have lost my shirt on the Boerne property if you hadn&#039;t spotted that structural problem. I hear the city just condemned it. Also, I talked to Dr. Drake, and he said you managed to pull off a B-. He was impressed, given your midterm grade. So, you fulfilled your part of our bargain. Now, whatever you decide about college, I’d like to keep you on. Do you still want to go to Murch next year?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I nodded my head yes. “Good” She put a piece of paper in front of me. “This is a contract. It says that I will pay your tuition for the fall semester. In return, you agree to work as my personal assistant. You will also maintain a B average, and add a minor in business administration to your engineering classes. After graduation, you&#039;ll make donations to Murch&#039;s financial aid endowment. If you do not satisfy these terms, you will repay me. Is that acceptable?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Um, do you have a pen I could use?” I signed the contract, and she signed her name beside mine. Then, she pulled out an envelope and handed it to me. Inside was a check for the fall semester’s tuition, minus the financial aid I had managed to keep. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You’ll still be responsible for room, board and fees,” she said. I wasn’t about to complain. “Now, two more things. If you are going to be my assistant next year, you’ll need more reliable transportation than the bus or your bike.” She handed me another envelope. Inside it were the keys, title, registration and insurance for an older Civic. “Consider it your bonus for stopping me from buying that building. I assume you can drive a manual? No? Well then, I’ll just have to teach you!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh, wow! Thanks!&amp;quot; I spluttered, at a loss for any better words.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;And the other thing. A friend of mine works for Moody and Baker Engineering. On my recommendation, he&#039;s agreed to give you an internship this summer. You&#039;ll work for them half time, and half time for me. You can stay in my guest room. Interested?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I spent a few weeks at home before returning to San Antonio for the summer.  My parents were exfremely unhappy about all this. They thought Ashley was using me for something. They didn&#039;t know what, but they didn&#039;t trust her motives. They also didn’t like the fact that I would be living with an older woman. It didn&#039;t matter that I said we&#039;d never had sex. In the end, though, I convinced them that a deal was a deal, and I couldn’t back out. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monday through Wednesday, I&#039;d get up, we&#039;d have breakfast together, and I&#039;d drive the Civic to M&amp;amp;B. I learned a lot about what engineering is really like. While the calculations I was learning at school are a part, it&#039;s really about solving the clients&#039; problems, within their budget, site constraints and building codes. That and documenting everything you do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wednesday afternoons, Thursdays and Fridays were spent as Ashley&#039;s gofer and A/V squad. I&#039;d also occasionally be her date for business dinners and other social functions. She taught me a lot that I would never have learned at the university: how to read people, how to read a contract, how to cook, how to choose a good wine, how to dress well. It was quite an education. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also helped out at her ranch in the Texas Hill Country, clearing brush or restoring the old stone ranchhouse. She was trying to exterminate invasive salt cedar from her property, and it was a lot of hard work. One day, I looked down at some ground still damp from last nights thunderstorms, and saw what appeared to be a big cat track. She said it was a bobcat. I wasn’t so sure. It was huge. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I stopped at an Army/Navy store the next day and bought a Ka-Bar. I knew I wouldn’t need it for a bobcat, and it wouldn’t help against a puma. Still, carrying it made me feel better when we were clearing brush. It made her laugh. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In early June, my parents came up for a weekend to meet Ashley. She must have made a good impression, because their disapproval faded after that. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As I got to know her, I occasionally caught glimpses behind the facade she showed the    world. She wasn&#039;t the strong, self-sufficient businesswoman she liked people to think she was. Every once in a while, she&#039;d see a happy couple, and a lonely, wistful look would come over her face for just an instant. Once in a great while, she&#039;d start flirt with me, stop suddenly and deny it ever happened.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that’s how I ended up at her ranch one night in mid June. After a wonderful dinner that we had cooked together, and more wine than I was used to, she started flirting with me. I expected her to stop like always, but she didn&#039;t. I suppose the wine also helped, but the next thing I knew, I was flat on my back on her four-post bed, buck naked. The old floor-to-ceiling doors were open, and the curtains fluttered in the warm evening breeze. She was kneeling over me, naked and half-illuminated by the light of the full moon, saying, “Do you trust me?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yes,“ I said. Get a 20 year guy old somewhat drunk and very hot and bothered, and he’ll say yes to just about anything a good looking woman asks. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She took my wrists and stretched my hands up over my head and pinned them there.  She then straddled my thighs and wrapped one hand around my cock. “Comfy?” she asked as she kneaded with her strong fingers. I was too distracted to reply with anything but a low moan. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She dug her nails into the tender skin along the underside of my cock. I gasped. I was about to complain, but it felt incredible. She raised herself up onto her knees, shifted a bit, then impaled herself on me. She was hot, wet and tight. Hotter and tighter than anyone I had ever been with before. Not that I was very experienced. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I moaned again and closed my eyes. She lifted up again, and something sharp dragged against the top of my cock as she did so. I instantly sat up, or would have if my arms hadn’t been pinned down. She was way stronger than she looked. “What the fuck!” I yelled as I looked down. Two thin scratches ran the length of my cock, with beads of blood forming. “Why the heck did you do that? Let me go!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m afraid I can’t, Jake. Not anymore. If I did, I’d have to kill you. And I like you too much to do that.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sank back down, and her vaginal wetness stung in the scratches. “You see, Jake,” she said as she leaned forward, the candles on the nightstands shining on her face, “I’m not exactly human, and soon you won’t be either.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As she said this, her irises changed from blue to gold, and expanded so no white was showing. Changes progressed outwards from there. Her eyelids turned black, and the outer corners shifted upwards. Her nose grew broader, then longer as her upper lip became fleshier and her jaws extended. Her ears became thin, pointed, and migrated back and up. She sat up again, and her breasts shrank until they were mostly nipple. Two rows of dark spots appeared below them, then grew into additional nipples. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sat there for a moment, with her free hand resting on my belly. Each finger ended in a sharp, hooked claw. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m a shape shifter, a were-cougar. And now you will be too. It’s transmitted by bodily fluids. I could have bitten you, but I thought this would be more … fun. With my vashinal wetnesh in your bloodshtream, you will be a were-cougar, thoo!” She smiled, showing off long fangs and sharp incisors.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know, I wash thinking abouth thath Craigthlith ad.” Her diction was becoming slurred as her mouth became more and more catlike. “You really shoulth be carefull whath you athk for, jutht in cathe you geth ith!” By this time, her body was covered in pale brown fur, and her internal temperature became even hotter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My mind was torn between horny and horror. I wanted to throw her off me and run. I wanted her to keep fucking me. I didn’t want to come and release the only control I had left. I couldn’t wait until I did. I was on the edge of panic when I finally orgasmed, my cock pulsing and throbbing inside what was now almost entirely a cougar. Only a few faint vestiges of humanity were still visible - fingers on her front paws, and a deeper brainpan than normal for a feline. She lay down on me and pushed her nose into my face. Her tail flicked between my ankles. Her whiskers tickled as she rubbed her cheeks on mine. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Scent marking me, claiming me as yours? I asked. She lifted her head, and nodded. All of a sudden, I had to laugh. She tilted her head as if to ask, “What?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I just came in a pussy pussy!” She crinkled her nose at me, and proceeded to lick my face with her very rough tongue. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The next morning, I woke up with my cock in something hot, wet and vibrating. It took me a minute to realize what was going on - the most incredible blowjob I’d ever gotten. She was purring! Between that and the incredible things her rough but supple tongue did to me, I quickly exploded into her mouth. She cleaned me off with her tongue, then licked her lips.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“There is a serious advantage to being one of the smaller cats,” she said. “Lions, tigers and leopards get all the press, but they can’t give purr jobs! Come on, breakfast is ready. Let’s eat while I explain.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Breakfast was delicious, as usual. As we ate, she told me that she had been an ROTC cadet until she was diagnosed with advanced hepatitis during her sophomore year. This was when it was still difficult to treat.  She lost her ROTC scholarship, and would have had to withdraw from Murch if one of her doctors hadn&#039;t taken her under his wing. Soon after, she let him seduce her, only to find herself being forced by a cougar. He was apologetic after, and taught her how to control her inner beast, but she never again let her guard down around him. Until the previous night, had restricted herself to a few one-night stands with other were-folk. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know,” she said, “I wasn’t joking last night. When I said I’d have to kill you. It’s one of the few laws all weres have in common. Anyone who knows we exist must become one of us, or die. Had I let you go, the local werewolf pack would hunt us down. They&#039;d kill me, and rape you, making you one of them.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She stopped spreading jam on her toast and put it down. “I’m sorry, Jake, truly I am. It’s just that I’ve been so alone. I can’t undo what I did to you last night. I wish I could have given you a choice.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I didn’t know what to say, so I said nothing.  I wasn’t yet sure how I felt about what she had done to me, but I still cared for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She continued, “What Dr. Hennessey did to me felt like I had been raped. Yes, the sex was completely consensual, but what came with it… was very much like a rape. And now, I&#039;ve done the same thing to you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;And on top of that, I changed you because I was tired of being human all the time.  I like being the cougar.  It&#039;s how I decompress after a hard day.  I could have found you a summer sublet to stay in, but instead I brought you out here with me.  I should have known the full moon would weaken my self control.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I feel so guilty.  For ultimately selfish reasons, I condemned you to the same lonely life I&#039;m stuck with.  Can you forgive me?&amp;quot;  She looked so miserable, so apologetic, that I took her in my arms, and kissed her tears away.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then something she had said clicked.  “You had unprotected sex with me, and you have hepatitis?”  I almost screamed it at her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She laughed at me.  That made me even madder.  She actually laughed at me. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I turned you into a fucking werecat, and you’re worried about hepatitis?”  She continued more quietly.  “Jake, The virus can’t survive in a feline body.  That why Dr. Hennessey did it - to cure me. What&#039;s more,  most cougar diseases can’t survive in humans.  About the only thing we have to worry about are rabies and toxoplasmosis.  Avoid rabid animals, don‘t eat rats and wash your hands after changing a litter box, and you don‘t really have to worry about infectious disease at all.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We went our separate ways to work: me to my internship, her to her office.  Work was strange.  I had gone through the strangest experience in my life, and I couldn&#039;t say anything.  I had to reassess my views of reality.  If werefolk were real, what about all the other myths?  Fernando, our survey chief, had long lower canines.  Was he one of us?  That strange, shaggy professor in the Classics department.  Could he be Pan in disguise?  Needless to say, I was distracted.  Enough so that I my supervisor sent me home early. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I drove back to the ranch, walked up the steps to the veranda, and sat down.  I spent a while looking out over the ranch towards the clearing where I had changed the night before, thinking.  Ruminating, really, trying to figure out the rest of my life without really enough data to make informed decisions.  I could almost hear Dr. Doder chastizing me for that. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Motion and a scent caught my attention.  A cougar walked around the corner and hopped up onto the veranda.  I tensed for a second, then realized it was holding its head and tail up high, not the low stalking posture.  Also, it had topaz earings.  &amp;quot;Ashley?&amp;quot; I asked.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The big cat nodded yes, and climbed up on the seat next to me.  She looked me in the eyes, butted he head into me, and purred as she licked along my jaw.  Her rough tongue tugged on my five-o&#039;clock shadow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That&#039;s when it got weird.  She turned around so her butt was towards me, lowered her front half and raised her hips as high as she could.  Her tail went straight up. and, there, a few inches from my face, the pink folds of a damp, very human pussy glistened in the late-day sun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What was I supposed to do?  I didn&#039;t exactly know the finer points of cougar etiquette.  I figured I&#039;d do what my friend Ted&#039;s cats did.  I leaned forward and took a sniff.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the next several weeks like that. She’d wake me with a blowjob or sex, we’d go off to work, then come home for more. In between, she told me what to expect on the next night of the full moon. Eventually, she said, I’d be able to control it and change at will regardless of the moon phase, but for the next six months or so, I should plan on spending full moon nights at the ranch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During that time, I felt something strange building within me. Some sort of tension, or static electric energy. It felt like every nerve I had was buzzing with fear or with anticipation, I couldn’t tell which. Probably both. She enrolled me in meditation and tai chi lessons, and that was the only thing that really eased the itch. Well, that and sex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The morning of the full moon, I woke up before she did for a change. I was near bursting with the tension within me. I figured it was time to pay her back for all the wakeup calls she had given me. I slowly spread Ashley’s legs apart, then kissed the slit between them, at first gently, then with more and more pressure as her labia swelled and dampened. I licked and sucked and prodded with my tongue until I felt her spasm. Before the last wave crested, I flipped her on to her stomach, then took her from behind. Before long, she came again with me inside her. It felt so good that I followed shortly thereafter. I collapsed on top of her as we basked in the orgasm afterglow. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She lifted herself up on one elbow to look over her shoulder at me, smiled, and kissed me. Then she reached over to her handbag and pulled out a compact. She opened it up and held it so I could see myself in the mirror. My brown eyes had lightened to cougar gold. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I called in sick to my internship, and we spent most of the day clearing salt cedar. By the end of the day, I felt like I was holding a live wire or something. My whole body was buzzing with energy. I heard a flutter behind me, and by reflex turned to look. My eye was immediately caught by the motion of a sparrow flying overhead. After it passed, I smelled its scent wafting down. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All day, I was being distracted by the local wildlife. All the time I had helped her on her ranch, I had never noticed how much of it there was. Now, every rustle, every scent on the breeze, every glimpse of motion caught my attention. Late in the afternoon, we spooked a rabbit, and I almost started chasing it. Ashley laughed, put her arms around me and said “I’ve done that, too. Come on, it’s almost time.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the sun getting low in the sky, she led me to a secluded clearing overlooking the creek. We undressed each other, then sat down to watch the sunset. It made everything glow, including her body. Her scent filled my nostrils. I reached for her. She put her arms around me, gave me a hug, and said, “Not now. Later, I promise.” She was still holding me as the nervous tension inside me crescendoed. I looked behind us, and saw the moon rising over the hill. “It’s okay, baby. I’m here with you. I’ll be with you.” She kept murmuring reassurances in my ear as the tension became unbearable.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It started in my groin where she had - is infected the right word? - well, infected me. My cock and balls retreated backwards between my legs. My cock was slowly being enveloped by a sheath. As I watched, the tip disappeared inside it. I felt pressure inside my fingertips. My nails grew thicker and longer and hooked into wickedly sharp claws. Then I felt the same thing in my toes. My toenails became claws, then my toes bent upwards as my foot bones lengthened. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My canine teeth expanded in girth and length. I ran my tongue over my new fangs. The pressure grew to fill my lower face. I felt my jaws extending forward, pushed out by the pressure within. My nose broadened and suddenly, I was overwhelmed by the scents surrounding me. I focused on Ashley’s scent. Her odor, her words whispered in my ears, her arms around me kept me grounded, sane, as my ears were dragged backwards and upwards through my skull. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It’s hard to describe what happened after that. It’s not that I don’t remember what happened. I can’t find the words to describe it. My best guess is, as the changes penetrated into my brain, I lost the use of language. Ashley’s murmured reassurances became a soft buzz. This scared me more than anything else had. Was I losing my identity, the thoughts and skills and experiences that made me who I am? Until then, I could think of myself as a human in a cougar body. Now I was losing that, too,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The pressure increased and the changes to my arms, leg and head progressed. Finally, with a sensation somewhere between a full-body toothache and a mind-blowing, toe-curling orgasm, the rest of my body followed. I was a cougar.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You know the feeling of release when the last item of clothing comes off, and you&#039;re finally fully naked for the first time with a new lover? That&#039;s what it felt like. I felt free. Unfettered.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I tried to run, but my four legs betrayed me. I couldn’t coordinate them, and fell painfully on my snout. Ashley let me go, and got down on her hands and knees. She shifted into a cougar herself. It was the first time I got to watch her shift since that night weeks before. I had been a bit distracted then. I was amazed by how fluid it looked, compared to how my change felt. After I regained my feet, she led me into the bushes. I stumbled at first, but soon walking on four legs seemed natural. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the night prowling her ranch. She taught me how to walk, run, pounce, and climb on four legs instead of two, how to use night vision, smell and hearing to navigate instead of stumbling around in the dark. Towards dawn, she brought down a yearling buck, and I tasted hot blood for the first time. It was wonderful. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then she led me back to the clearing by the creek where we had first changed. We made love in the dawn sunlight as we regained our humanity. Along with everything else that summer, she taught me how to be a cougar and a man, without losing my identity in the cougar mind.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
No matter how many times I checked my math, the answer came out the same. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I had flunked my Calculus II mid-term exam so badly that, even if I got straight 100s for the rest of the semester, my final grade would be too low to keep my scholarship. Without it, there was no way my family could pay my tuition at a private liberal arts college like Murchison U.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My roommate Scott heard me groan, and asked what was wrong. I explained, and he let out a low whistle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;That’s a serious bummer!” he said. “What are you going to do?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Transfer to UT or A&amp;amp;M, I guess.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Damn. You‘ve been a good roommate.” He went back to studying, then a few minutes later said, “You need a cougar.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A what?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A cougar. A rich woman to pay your bills. The female equivalent of a sugar daddy.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Oh, stop it!&amp;quot; I yelled, &amp;quot;You want me to prostitute myself to pay for college? That&#039;s just wrong! And besides, how the heck could I attract a woman like that?” I was after all, a scrawny, somewhat nerdy engineering major.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He just smiled and went back to his studying, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A few days later, he flashed me a big grin and showed me an ad on Craigslist. “Cougar wanted,” it said. “Nice but shy SWM, NS, college student seeks sugar mommy for …” I didn’t bother reading the rest. &amp;quot;Come one!” I said. “Did you do that?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yep! And you have a response already!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It took him a few days to convince me to let him reply for me. The next day, he told me that I had a lunch date Saturday at a Riverwalk café. I almost didn’t go, but I figured, what did I have to lose? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that is how I met Ashley. I was wearing my best jeans, a halfway decent button-down shirt, and a tie. I was a few minutes late. I’d like to say it was because I missed a bus connection, but it was mostly because I had trouble getting the knot in my tie right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Years ago, the City of San Antonio made plans to bury the San Antonio River through downtown. A group of insightful women saw that it could be more and convinced the city to do otherwise. Now it is an entertainment district one level below the street. The river has walkways on both sides, lined with restaurants, bars and shops.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked down the steps from the street and saw a slender woman sitting at a table set for two.  Her back was to me, so my first impression was tawny blond hair gathered in a silver clip at neck level, and hanging about halfway down the back of her white silk blouse.  She was wearing a denim skirt just barely too short and tight for modesty, and cowboy boots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked up to the table, and she smiled up at me. “Are you Jake?” she asked. Her eyes matched her blue topaz pendant and earings.  She was somewhere in her mid-thirties, and very attractive, but not quite gorgeous.  That was a relief.  I always get awkward and tongue-tied around beautiful women. “Yes, ma’am,” I replied. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Then, have a seat. And lose the tie,” she said. “And don’t call me ma’am.” To be honest, I was glad she told me to take the tie off. I hate wearing ties. They feel like an inverted noose arund my neck.  Also, it was getting rather warm in the sun.  We spent a while in small talk until the waiter came over.  She ordered for me, something Italian sounding and a glass of wine.  I started to say that I was under 21, but she silenced me with a look.  The waiter certainly looked like he wasn’t going to ask any questions. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The meal was delicious. It was a mixture of fresh vegetables, pasta and steak in a red sauce. Not a jar sauce you’d buy down in the HEB supermarket, but a sauce made from freshly diced tomatoes, herbs and spices, and red wine. We chatted some more while finishing out meals. After the waiter cleared the plates, her demeanor changed. Suddenly all business, she asked, “So, Jake, what do you want from me?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Instantly, a cat got my tongue. I had no idea what to say. Eventually, I managed to tell her the story about failing my Calc mid-term, losing my scholarship and my roommate’s solution. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“So, you’re looking for someone to pay your way through college,” she said. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I don’t know what I’m looking for, ma’am. It‘s just that I like Murch U. I want to finish my degree there, and I don‘t know how to pay for it. When Scott said he had set up the date with you, I figured I could always say no if I felt uncomfortable about it. At worst, I would be out an afternoon and the price of lunch.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“What’s Scott’s phone number?” she asked, pulling a high-end smartphone from her purse. I told her, and she called him. First, she verified that Scott had indeed placed the Craigslist ad and set me up. Then, she asked all sorts of questions about me like she was checking a job candidate’s references. She thanked Scott, put her phone in her purse, then looked at me for several long, awkward minutes. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m actually a Murch alumna, class of ‘99, so I understand why you’d want to stay. I like you, Jake. I’ll tell you what. You’re tuition is paid through the end of the semester, right? Let’s consider that your probation. If we get along, you work hard for me, and you pull up your Calc grade as best you can, I’ll think about sponsoring you for the fall semester. In return, you&#039;ll work part time as my personal assistant. If it doesn‘t work out, well, I know someone in the Admissions Office at A&amp;amp;M.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, that is how it started. A few afternoons each week, I helped her with her real estate business. I set up A/V and computer equipment at her business meetings, did internet research, ran errands for her, and was her general all-around gofer. Occasionally, I provided company for dinner, but the one thing I was both hoping for and afraid of never happened. She never came on to me. In fact, she only touched me a handful of times, never flirted and rarely even joked about sex. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She called me into her office after finals were over. She said, “You know, you’ve been a big help. I would have lost my shirt on the Boerne property if you hadn&#039;t spotted that structural problem. I hear the city just condemned it. Also, I talked to Dr. Drake, and he said you managed to pull off a B-. He was impressed, given your midterm grade. So, you fulfilled your part of our bargain. Now, whatever you decide about college, I’d like to keep you on. Do you still want to go to Murch next year?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I nodded my head yes. “Good” She put a piece of paper in front of me. “This is a contract. It says that I will pay your tuition for the fall semester. In return, you agree to work as my personal assistant. You will also maintain a B average, and add a minor in business administration to your engineering classes. After graduation, you&#039;ll make donations to Murch&#039;s financial aid endowment. If you do not satisfy these terms, you will repay me. Is that acceptable?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Um, do you have a pen I could use?” I signed the contract, and she signed her name beside mine. Then, she pulled out an envelope and handed it to me. Inside was a check for the fall semester’s tuition, minus the financial aid I had managed to keep. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You’ll still be responsible for room, board and fees,” she said. I wasn’t about to complain. “Now, two more things. If you are going to be my assistant next year, you’ll need more reliable transportation than the bus or your bike.” She handed me another envelope. Inside it were the keys, title, registration and insurance for an older Civic. “Consider it your bonus for stopping me from buying that building. I assume you can drive a manual? No? Well then, I’ll just have to teach you!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh, wow! Thanks!&amp;quot; I spluttered, at a loss for any better words.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;And the other thing. A friend of mine works for Moody and Baker Engineering. On my recommendation, he&#039;s agreed to give you an internship this summer. You&#039;ll work for them half time, and half time for me. You can stay in my guest room. Interested?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
I spent a few weeks at home before returning to San Antonio for the summer.  My parents were exfremely unhappy about all this. They thought Ashley was using me for something. They didn&#039;t know what, but they didn&#039;t trust her motives. They also didn’t like the fact that I would be living with an older woman. It didn&#039;t matter that I said we&#039;d never had sex. In the end, though, I convinced them that a deal was a deal, and I couldn’t back out. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monday through Wednesday, I&#039;d get up, we&#039;d have breakfast together, and I&#039;d drive the Civic to M&amp;amp;B. I learned a lot about what engineering is really like. While the calculations I was learning at school are a part, it&#039;s really about solving the clients&#039; problems, within their budget, site constraints and building codes. That and documenting everything you do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wednesday afternoons, Thursdays and Fridays were spent as Ashley&#039;s gofer and A/V squad. I&#039;d also occasionally be her date for business dinners and other social functions. She taught me a lot that I would never have learned at the university: how to read people, how to read a contract, how to cook, how to choose a good wine, how to dress well. It was quite an education. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also helped out at her ranch in the Texas Hill Country, clearing brush or restoring the old stone ranchhouse. She was trying to exterminate invasive salt cedar from her property, and it was a lot of hard work. One day, I looked down at some ground still damp from last nights thunderstorms, and saw what appeared to be a big cat track. She said it was a bobcat. I wasn’t so sure. It was huge. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I stopped at an Army/Navy store the next day and bought a Ka-Bar. I knew I wouldn’t need it for a bobcat, and it wouldn’t help against a puma. Still, carrying it made me feel better when we were clearing brush. It made her laugh. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In early June, my parents came up for a weekend to meet Ashley. She must have made a good impression, because their disapproval faded after that. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As I got to know her, I occasionally caught glimpses behind the facade she showed the    world. She wasn&#039;t the strong, self-sufficient businesswoman she liked people to think she was. Every once in a while, she&#039;d see a happy couple, and a lonely, wistful look would come over her face for just an instant. Once in a great while, she&#039;d start flirt with me, stop suddenly and deny it ever happened.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that’s how I ended up at her ranch one night in mid June. After a wonderful dinner that we had cooked together, and more wine than I was used to, she started flirting with me. I expected her to stop like always, but she didn&#039;t. I suppose the wine also helped, but the next thing I knew, I was flat on my back on her four-post bed, buck naked. The old floor-to-ceiling doors were open, and the curtains fluttered in the warm evening breeze. She was kneeling over me, naked and half-illuminated by the light of the full moon, saying, “Do you trust me?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yes,“ I said. Get a 20 year guy old somewhat drunk and very hot and bothered, and he’ll say yes to just about anything a good looking woman asks. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She took my wrists and stretched my hands up over my head and pinned them there.  She then straddled my thighs and wrapped one hand around my cock. “Comfy?” she asked as she kneaded with her strong fingers. I was too distracted to reply with anything but a low moan. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She dug her nails into the tender skin along the underside of my cock. I gasped. I was about to complain, but it felt incredible. She raised herself up onto her knees, shifted a bit, then impaled herself on me. She was hot, wet and tight. Hotter and tighter than anyone I had ever been with before. Not that I was very experienced. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I moaned again and closed my eyes. She lifted up again, and something sharp dragged against the top of my cock as she did so. I instantly sat up, or would have if my arms hadn’t been pinned down. She was way stronger than she looked. “What the fuck!” I yelled as I looked down. Two thin scratches ran the length of my cock, with beads of blood forming. “Why the heck did you do that? Let me go!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m afraid I can’t, Jake. Not anymore. If I did, I’d have to kill you. And I like you too much to do that.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sank back down, and her vaginal wetness stung in the scratches. “You see, Jake,” she said as she leaned forward, the candles on the nightstands shining on her face, “I’m not exactly human, and soon you won’t be either.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As she said this, her irises changed from blue to gold, and expanded so no white was showing. Changes progressed outwards from there. Her eyelids turned black, and the outer corners shifted upwards. Her nose grew broader, then longer as her upper lip became fleshier and her jaws extended. Her ears became thin, pointed, and migrated back and up. She sat up again, and her breasts shrank until they were mostly nipple. Two rows of dark spots appeared below them, then grew into additional nipples. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sat there for a moment, with her free hand resting on my belly. Each finger ended in a sharp, hooked claw. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m a shape shifter, a were-cougar. And now you will be too. It’s transmitted by bodily fluids. I could have bitten you, but I thought this would be more … fun. With my vashinal wetnesh in your bloodshtream, you will be a were-cougar, thoo!” She smiled, showing off long fangs and sharp incisors.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know, I wash thinking abouth thath Craigthlith ad.” Her diction was becoming slurred as her mouth became more and more catlike. “You really shoulth be carefull whath you athk for, jutht in cathe you geth ith!” By this time, her body was covered in pale brown fur, and her internal temperature became even hotter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My mind was torn between horny and horror. I wanted to throw her off me and run. I wanted her to keep fucking me. I didn’t want to come and release the only control I had left. I couldn’t wait until I did. I was on the edge of panic when I finally orgasmed, my cock pulsing and throbbing inside what was now almost entirely a cougar. Only a few faint vestiges of humanity were still visible - fingers on her front paws, and a deeper brainpan than normal for a feline. She lay down on me and pushed her nose into my face. Her tail flicked between my ankles. Her whiskers tickled as she rubbed her cheeks on mine. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Scent marking me, claiming me as yours? I asked. She lifted her head, and nodded. All of a sudden, I had to laugh. She tilted her head as if to ask, “What?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I just came in a pussy pussy!” She crinkled her nose at me, and proceeded to lick my face with her very rough tongue. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The next morning, I woke up with my cock in something hot, wet and vibrating. It took me a minute to realize what was going on - the most incredible blowjob I’d ever gotten. She was purring! Between that and the incredible things her rough but supple tongue did to me, I quickly exploded into her mouth. She cleaned me off with her tongue, then licked her lips.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“There is a serious advantage to being one of the smaller cats,” she said. “Lions, tigers and leopards get all the press, but they can’t give purr jobs! Come on, breakfast is ready. Let’s eat while I explain.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Breakfast was delicious, as usual. As we ate, she told me that she had been an ROTC cadet until she was diagnosed with advanced hepatitis during her sophomore year. This was when it was still difficult to treat.  She lost her ROTC scholarship, and would have had to withdraw from Murch if one of her doctors hadn&#039;t taken her under his wing. Soon after, she let him seduce her, only to find herself being forced by a cougar. He was apologetic after, and taught her how to control her inner beast, but she never again let her guard down around him. Until the previous night, had restricted herself to a few one-night stands with other were-folk. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know,” she said, “I wasn’t joking last night. When I said I’d have to kill you. It’s one of the few laws all weres have in common. Anyone who knows we exist must become one of us, or die. Had I let you go, the local werewolf pack would hunt us down. They&#039;d kill me, and rape you, making you one of them.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She stopped spreading jam on her toast and put it down. “I’m sorry, Jake, truly I am. It’s just that I’ve been so alone. I can’t undo what I did to you last night. I wish I could have given you a choice.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I didn’t know what to say, so I said nothing.  I wasn’t yet sure how I felt about what she had done to me, but I still cared for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She continued, “What Dr. Hennessey did to me felt like I had been raped. Yes, the sex was completely consensual, but what came with it… was very much like a rape. And now, I&#039;ve done the same thing to you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;And on top of that, I changed you because I was tired of being human all the time.  I like being the cougar.  It&#039;s how I decompress after a hard day.  I could have found you a summer sublet to stay in, but instead I brought you out here with me.  I should have known the full moon would weaken my self control.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I feel so guilty.  For ultimately selfish reasons, I condemned you to the same lonely life I&#039;m stuck with.  Can you forgive me?&amp;quot;  She looked so miserable, so apologetic, that I took her in my arms, and kissed her tears away.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then something she had said clicked.  “You had unprotected sex with me, and you have hepatitis?”  I almost screamed it at her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She laughed at me.  That made me even madder.  She actually laughed at me. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I turned you into a fucking werecat, and you’re worried about hepatitis?”  She continued more quietly.  “Jake, The virus can’t survive in a feline body.  That why Dr. Hennessey did it - to cure me. What&#039;s more,  most cougar diseases can’t survive in humans.  About the only thing we have to worry about are rabies and toxoplasmosis.  Avoid rabid animals, don‘t eat rats and wash your hands after changing a litter box, and you don‘t really have to worry about infectious disease at all.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We went our separate ways to work: me to my internship, her to her office.  Work was strange.  I had gone through the strangest experience in my life, and I couldn&#039;t say anything.  I had to reassess my views of reality.  If werefolk were real, what about all the other myths?  Fernando, our survey chief, had long lower canines.  Was he one of us?  That strange, shaggy professor in the Classics department.  Could he be Pan in disguise?  Needless to say, I was distracted.  Enough so that I my supervisor sent me home early. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I drove back to the ranch, walked up the steps to the veranda, and sat down.  I spent a while looking out over the ranch towards the clearing where I had changed the night before, thinking.  Ruminating, really, trying to figure out the rest of my life without really enough data to make informed decisions.  I could almost hear Dr. Doder chastizing me for that. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Motion and a scent caught my attention.  A cougar walked around the corner and hopped up onto the veranda.  I tensed for a second, then realized it was holding its head and tail up high, not the low stalking posture.  Also, it had topaz earings.  &amp;quot;Ashley?&amp;quot; I asked.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The big cat nodded yes, and climbed up on the seat next to me.  She looked me in the eyes, butted he head into me, and purred as she licked along my jaw.  Her rough tongue tugged on my five-o&#039;clock shadow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That&#039;s when it got weird.  She turned around so her butt was towards me, lowered her front half and raised her hips as high as she could.  Her tail went straight up. and, glistening in the late-day sun, were the pink folds of a very human pussy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the next several weeks like that. She’d wake me with a blowjob or sex, we’d go off to work, then come home for more. In between, she told me what to expect on the next night of the full moon. Eventually, she said, I’d be able to control it and change at will regardless of the moon phase, but for the next six months or so, I should plan on spending full moon nights at the ranch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During that time, I felt something strange building within me. Some sort of tension, or static electric energy. It felt like every nerve I had was buzzing with fear or with anticipation, I couldn’t tell which. Probably both. She enrolled me in meditation and tai chi lessons, and that was the only thing that really eased the itch. Well, that and sex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The morning of the full moon, I woke up before she did for a change. I was near bursting with the tension within me. I figured it was time to pay her back for all the wakeup calls she had given me. I slowly spread Ashley’s legs apart, then kissed the slit between them, at first gently, then with more and more pressure as her labia swelled and dampened. I licked and sucked and prodded with my tongue until I felt her spasm. Before the last wave crested, I flipped her on to her stomach, then took her from behind. Before long, she came again with me inside her. It felt so good that I followed shortly thereafter. I collapsed on top of her as we basked in the orgasm afterglow. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She lifted herself up on one elbow to look over her shoulder at me, smiled, and kissed me. Then she reached over to her handbag and pulled out a compact. She opened it up and held it so I could see myself in the mirror. My brown eyes had lightened to cougar gold. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I called in sick to my internship, and we spent most of the day clearing salt cedar. By the end of the day, I felt like I was holding a live wire or something. My whole body was buzzing with energy. I heard a flutter behind me, and by reflex turned to look. My eye was immediately caught by the motion of a sparrow flying overhead. After it passed, I smelled its scent wafting down. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All day, I was being distracted by the local wildlife. All the time I had helped her on her ranch, I had never noticed how much of it there was. Now, every rustle, every scent on the breeze, every glimpse of motion caught my attention. Late in the afternoon, we spooked a rabbit, and I almost started chasing it. Ashley laughed, put her arms around me and said “I’ve done that, too. Come on, it’s almost time.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the sun getting low in the sky, she led me to a secluded clearing overlooking the creek. We undressed each other, then sat down to watch the sunset. It made everything glow, including her body. Her scent filled my nostrils. I reached for her. She put her arms around me, gave me a hug, and said, “Not now. Later, I promise.” She was still holding me as the nervous tension inside me crescendoed. I looked behind us, and saw the moon rising over the hill. “It’s okay, baby. I’m here with you. I’ll be with you.” She kept murmuring reassurances in my ear as the tension became unbearable.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It started in my groin where she had - is infected the right word? - well, infected me. My cock and balls retreated backwards between my legs. My cock was slowly being enveloped by a sheath. As I watched, the tip disappeared inside it. I felt pressure inside my fingertips. My nails grew thicker and longer and hooked into wickedly sharp claws. Then I felt the same thing in my toes. My toenails became claws, then my toes bent upwards as my foot bones lengthened. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My canine teeth expanded in girth and length. I ran my tongue over my new fangs. The pressure grew to fill my lower face. I felt my jaws extending forward, pushed out by the pressure within. My nose broadened and suddenly, I was overwhelmed by the scents surrounding me. I focused on Ashley’s scent. Her odor, her words whispered in my ears, her arms around me kept me grounded, sane, as my ears were dragged backwards and upwards through my skull. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It’s hard to describe what happened after that. It’s not that I don’t remember what happened. I can’t find the words to describe it. My best guess is, as the changes penetrated into my brain, I lost the use of language. Ashley’s murmured reassurances became a soft buzz. This scared me more than anything else had. Was I losing my identity, the thoughts and skills and experiences that made me who I am? Until then, I could think of myself as a human in a cougar body. Now I was losing that, too,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The pressure increased and the changes to my arms, leg and head progressed. Finally, with a sensation somewhere between a full-body toothache and a mind-blowing, toe-curling orgasm, the rest of my body followed. I was a cougar.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You know the feeling of release when the last item of clothing comes off, and you&#039;re finally fully naked for the first time with a new lover? That&#039;s what it felt like. I felt free. Unfettered.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I tried to run, but my four legs betrayed me. I couldn’t coordinate them, and fell painfully on my snout. Ashley let me go, and got down on her hands and knees. She shifted into a cougar herself. It was the first time I got to watch her shift since that night weeks before. I had been a bit distracted then. I was amazed by how fluid it looked, compared to how my change felt. After I regained my feet, she led me into the bushes. I stumbled at first, but soon walking on four legs seemed natural. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the night prowling her ranch. She taught me how to walk, run, pounce, and climb on four legs instead of two, how to use night vision, smell and hearing to navigate instead of stumbling around in the dark. Towards dawn, she brought down a yearling buck, and I tasted hot blood for the first time. It was wonderful. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then she led me back to the clearing by the creek where we had first changed. We made love in the dawn sunlight as we regained our humanity. Along with everything else that summer, she taught me how to be a cougar and a man, without losing my identity in the cougar mind.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I hope Vivian won&#039;t be there.&amp;quot; John said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You know she will,&amp;quot; replied Rowan.  &amp;quot;The conference is in the same city as her office.  You need to tell her to either stop flirting with you, or date you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I tried that.  She just laughed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was a chilly February afternoon. and Ro, John and I were in her Accord, driving from Syracuse, NY to Rochester for the annual Engineer&#039;s Week convention.  John was a tall fellow, so I let him sit in the passenger seat.  I was in the back.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We were going to represent our employer, Leightner McFarland Engineering, at the convention.  Rowan and I were presenting about the success of our village streetscape project.  I was the design engineer and responsible for the overall project.  Rowan had designed the sidewalks, landscaping, and drainage.  John headed another design team, and was going to talk to prospective clients.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian is LME&#039;s lead real estate lawyer.  John had to work with Vivian because his project involved extensive right-of-way purchases.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Vivian often flirts with John to the very limits of professional office behavior, and sometimes beyond.  As soon as he responds, though, she gets frigid.  It doesn&#039;t help that Vivian is a gorgeous redhead.  Anyone could see why John hated it.  Unlike most people, however, I can tell how serious her  case of the hots for him was.  I can smell it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also know why she can&#039;t act on it.  You see, Vivian has a secret.  I can smell that, too.  She is a werewolf. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How can I smell it? I have a secret, too.  I&#039;m a were-cougar. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I can sympathize with Vivian to some extent.  Rowan flirted with me when she first joined the company.  It was hard for me.  Ro is a pretty brunette with blue eyes and fair skin, with intelligence and personality to match.  I wanted so much to ask her out, but I couldn&#039;t, and it wasn&#039;t because of the company&#039;s policy about dating subordinates.  I finally told her to stop.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well at least her hair makes her easy to spot,&amp;quot; Ro said.  &amp;quot;Don&#039;t worry.  Jake and I will run interference for you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, John&#039;s phone beeped.  John looked at it and said, &amp;quot;The Thruway is closed ahead.  Bad crash.  Waze says take the next exit.  It looks like we&#039;re taking the back roads.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well, crap!&amp;quot; Ro said.  &amp;quot;At least there will be a full moon tonight, so it&#039;ll be easier to see on the back roads.&amp;quot;  I was already feeling the tingle of energy from the moon.  Felines like me aren&#039;t as strongly tied to the moon as werewolves, but we still hear her call.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As we drove west through the upstate New York countryside, we were treated to a gorgeous sunset shining on winter snow front of us, as the moon rose behind us.  Ro was enjoying it, pumping the clutch and flicking the Honda&#039;s shift lever from gear to gear to match the engine speed to the curves and hills.  She bought the Honda because it was one of the few sedans still available with a manual transmission.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We crested a hill and were greeted by the sight of an old farmhouse and barn across the valley, glowing in the light of the setting sun.  As we dropped down into the shadow of the valley, I caught a flicker of motion off to the right.  &amp;quot;Look out!&amp;quot; I yelled, just as a doe lept over the road.  The grey blur following it crashed into the front of the car, smashed the windshield, and disappeared over the roof.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rowan slammed the brake pedal hard. The ABS clattered like mad as the car slewed to a stop. We all got out.  John went to check the damage to the car, and Ro looked for whatever we hit.  As I opened my door, the scent hit me.  Werewolves!  &amp;quot;Get back in the car, NOW!&amp;quot; I yelled.  She looked at me, then behind me, and screamed.  Something slammed into the back of the head, and the world went red and black.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I came to with the throbbing head and nausea of a concussion.  I part-changed to cougar and back to heal the damage, then assessed the situation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first thing I noticed was a damp basement odor, overlayed with the scents of wolves. Lots of wolves. I was lying on a cold, grimy stone floor. The light of a bare bulb showed that we were in a cage in an old basement, probably the in the farmhouse we saw. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rowan was curled up in a ball in the corner, sobbing and rocking back and forth. She reeked with fear. She had a severe dog phobia. She was attacked by one as a kid, and they can still put her on the edge of panic. Werewolves would scare any normal human. To a cynophobe like her, they&#039;d be paralyzing. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Outside the bars were two male and two female werewolves. They were half-changed - still bipedal, but with fur and tails and fangs and thick blunt claws.  John was on the floor outside the cage,  A female with reddish fur was holding his legs as a male pinned his arms to the floor.  She seemed familiar somehow, but I couldn&#039;t quite place it.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I knew what was coming next. Were-folk have a general rule about not letting normal humans know about our existence.  Anyone that knows has to become one of us, for our safety and security.  For wolf packs, though, it has the force of law.  The question was how they would enforce it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The red wolf dug her claws into the front of John&#039;s chinos and rent the fabric into tatters.  The boxers beneath them got the same treatment.  She lowered her muzzle inside the tear and applied her long supple tongue to his crotch.  John started to resist, but a growl and the firm but careful application of her fangs put an end to that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was too late to help John, but maybe I could still help Rowan.  I pulled her close and wrapped my arms around her.  She buried her head into the crook of my neck, sobbing something about dogs.  The scent of her fear tugged at my emotions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Having gotten the results she wanted, the red wolf straddled John&#039;s hips and took him as he watched in horror.  She gyrated her hips, milking him with her pussy while applying her paw-hand to her clit.  Small whimpers from her throat son became loud moans.  Moans became shrieks as she came.  John, against his will, came too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She let out a last sighing moan, then turned to the other female.  &amp;quot;Emily, the other male is yours.  Trey, you can have the female after that.”  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Why does she get to go first?  Who put you in charge, anyway?” one of the males asked in a slightly whiny voice.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“She’s not a threat.  He’s the priority.  Besides, Emily doesn’t whine.  And you know full well that the alphas put me in charge while they are at the council meeting.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, the red female&#039;s scent to my nose.  I should have known.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Emily came into the cage to get me.  I gently set Rowan on the floor and took a fighting stance between her and the wolf.  &amp;quot;I admire your courage,&amp;quot; she said, &amp;quot;but you can&#039;t win.  No human can beat a werewolf.  Come along, and I&#039;ll be gentle.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I snapped a kick to her ribcage.  She slammed back into the bars, and before she could recover, I spun her around facing away from me, got her right arm into a half-nelson and wrapped my other hand around her throat, claws extended and buried in her fur.  Her eyes bulged.  &amp;quot;I’m not human,&amp;quot; I said softly into her ear.  Her scent changed from confidence to confusion and a bit of fear.  &amp;quot;Hush. I don&#039;t want to hurt you.&amp;quot;  Then, more loudly, &amp;quot;Vivian!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian was walking towards the stairs with John over her shoulder.  She stopped, looked at me, and handed John off to the second male.  “Take him up to my room and keep him there,” she said.  She walked up to the cage and asked, &amp;quot;How did you know it was me?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You have a distinctive scent.&amp;quot; I said.  At her puzzled look, I smiled and continued.  &amp;quot;Wolves aren&#039;t the only creatures in the forest, don&#039;t you know.  Not even the scariest.&amp;quot;  That just confused her more. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed, showing her my yellow-gold cougar eyes, and tawny-furred snout and ears.  Light brown fur covered my skin. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What…?  Wow!  You’re…  a cougar?  I had no idea there were shifters besides us wolves!  Well, you obviously won&#039;t be joining our pack, but I don&#039;t think we need to worry about you talking.  Let Emily go and join us for dinner.  We&#039;re having venison.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I shook my head.  &amp;quot;Viv, about Rowan.  She&#039;s no good to you.  A dog mauled her as a kid, and she&#039;s been phobic ever since.  Can&#039;t you smell her?  Can&#039;t you hear her?  Do you really want a pack member that panics every full moon?  Every time she sees one of you with fur on?   Let me turn her.  Heck, she loves cats.  She breeds them.  You&#039;ll be better off with her as a sane cougar than a crazy wolf&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The male she called Trey growled,  &amp;quot;It&#039;s the law.  She must join...&amp;quot;  He fell silent at Vivian&#039;s gesture.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sighed.  &amp;quot;Well, the alphas won&#039;t like it, but you&#039;re probably right.  But if she&#039;s still human in the morning, I’m giving her to Trey.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I let Emily go with an apology, and said to Vivian,  &amp;quot;Do you have any place with a bit more privacy, and less grime?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian nodded.  &amp;quot;Emily, put them in the safe room, please.  Oh, and for letting him get the drop on you, you won&#039;t be joining tonight&#039;s pack run.  Instead, you&#039;ll guard the door and make sure he turns her.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I picked up Ro and followed Emily to a door across the basement.  She opened it and said, &amp;quot;You can stay in here.  It&#039;s still a cell, but at least it has a real floor and a bed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She opened the door and motioned us in. &lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The thick, iron-bound oaken door slammed shut behind us, and several heavy steel bolts slid home.  Enough moonlight came through a heavily barred window near the ceiling of the far wall to see the inside of the door was covered with gouges and claw marks.  Some had old bloodstains.  The irony of the name didn&#039;t escape me.  This safe room wasn&#039;t a refuge in a home invasion or tornado.  They lock up deranged wolves to keep the rest of the pack safe.  The kind Rowan would likely become if I failed.  I shuddered at the thought.  If the pack took her, she&#039;d probably spend all her full moons in here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I set Rowan down on the stained, ragged mattress in the corner.  It wasn&#039;t really a bed, but at least it wasn&#039;t the cold stone floor.  I sat next to her and pulled her onto my lap.  She was still in the grips of her panic attack, rocking back and forth muttering &amp;quot;Dogs! Dogs!&amp;quot; over and over.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Long ago, I swore an oath to myself that I&#039;d never change anyone without their consent, as I was.  She couldn&#039;t consent during a panic attack, but could I let Trey violate her?  Would doing it myself be the lesser evil?  I hoped I wouldn&#039;t have to make that choice.  I had to get her calmed down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I started murmuring into her ear.  “Hey, I got you. No dogs in here.”  After a while, it occurred to me.  Her cats were her babies.  What&#039;s more calming than a purring kitty?  I held her close and purred softly as I spoke.  It seemed to help, so I increased the volume.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It took a while, but it worked.  The scent of her panic never completely went away, but it did ebb.  The angle of the moonlight from the window told me it had been a few hours before she finally calmed down enough to sit up and look around.  In a shaky voice, she asked, &amp;quot;Are the dogs gone?  Where are we?  Where&#039;s John?&amp;quot;  And then, &amp;quot;Did you hear a cat?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I pulled her close, kissed her forehead gently, and said, &amp;quot;It&#039;s okay.  Well, it&#039;s far from okay, but it could be worse.&amp;quot;  I took a breath.  &amp;quot;Rowan, we&#039;re being held prisoner.  By werewolves.&amp;quot;  She made a scoffing noise.  &amp;quot;Yes, they are real.  Very, very real.  John is on his way to becoming one of them.&amp;quot;  I paused for a breath.  &amp;quot;I couldn&#039;t save him, but I made a deal with them for you.  The bad news is, you&#039;re not leaving this room as a human.  The good news is you have a choice.  Let me turn you, or they will, probably by force like they did to John&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Turn me into what?&amp;quot;  Her voice was skeptical.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Were-cougar, Or puma if you prefer.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;So, you&#039;re telling me we&#039;re captives of mythical creatures, you&#039;re a different mythical creature, and I have to choose between you and them.&amp;quot;  Her tone was sarcastic and unbelieving.  &amp;quot;You expect me to believe that if you bite me, I&#039;ll magically turn into a cougar?  Extraordinary claims require...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Extraordinary proof, I know.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I took her hand and pulled it, palm up, into the moonlight.  I let go, and placed my hand in her palm.  A moment&#039;s concentration, and my fingernails lengthened into sharp, hooked claws. Tough but supple pads formed under my knuckles and the middle joint of my fingers.  Tawny fur covered the rest and up into my sleeve.  With a quick indrawn breath, she caressed my fur, prodded my pads, and gently ran fingertips over the points of my claws. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Is this real?&amp;quot; she asked. &amp;quot;Am I dreaming?  Drugged?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I set her down on the mattress, kicked off my shoes, pulled off my socks and stood in the moonlight from the window.  Facing her, I unbuttoned my shirt, took it off and dropped it on the mattress.  I could tell she liked what she saw.  I&#039;m not muscle-bound by any means, but I am fit and toned.  After unbuckling my belt and opening my fly, I hooked my thumbs over the waistbands of my pants and briefs and pushed them down to my ankles, changing as I did.  I pulled my hind paws out of my pants and padded over to her on all fours.  Her astonishment was plain on her face.  I head-butted her a few times, then touched my muzzle to her nose.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Smiling with amazement, she reached up and tentatively touched my long whiskers, then the fur on my cheek.  &amp;quot;Oh. My. God,&amp;quot; she said.  &amp;quot;You&#039;re real!  You&#039;re fuckin&#039; real!  She started scratching behind my ears with both hands.  I couldn&#039;t help myself.  I started purring.  It&#039;s the best part of being one of the lesser cats.  Lions, tigers, jaguars and leopards get the press, but they can&#039;t purr.  We can&#039;t roar, but a snarl is almost as good, and purring is more fun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ro laughed out loud with delight.  &amp;quot;That was you!&amp;quot; she exclaimed.  I had the wrong mouth shape to talk now, so I nodded yes.  &amp;quot;So, I&#039;ll be able to change and purr and all this, too?&amp;quot;  I nodded yes again.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She put her hand in front of my face and said, “Go ahead. Bite me”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed so I could talk.  I took her hand in mine, placed it on my cheek, then kissed the hollow of her palm.  “I&#039;d rather not bite you.  That&#039;s uncivilized and not really that effective.  I’d have to get my saliva into a major artery or vein.  It’s not worth the risk.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Then how…?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Remember that day I told you to stop flirting with me?  That was probably the hardest thing I’ve had to do since becoming a cougar.  Part of me wanted to drag you into the conference room, lock the doors, and bend you over the table.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I would have let you.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I know.  And the next full moon, you’d be sprouting fur. I couldn’t do that to you without your consent.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I would have given it.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“But what if you didn’t?  Once you knew, you&#039;d have to become one of us.  I’d have to rape you, and I couldn’t do that.”  I paused and put my other hand on her cheek, then slid it under her hair to the back of her neck. “What I’m trying to say is, if you still want me, I’m yours.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh, &#039;&#039;reeeally&#039;&#039;?&amp;quot; She said with a smile as she stood up.  She unzipped her dress and slowly let it drop to the ground.  Her bra and panties soon followed, and she stood in front of me wearing just thigh-highs and kitten-heeled boots.  The scent of her nethers tickled my nose. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I dropped my jaw a little and pulled up my upper lip, so her scent could reach the special receptors in the roof of my mouth.  Yes, she was damp.  Wet, even.  Doing it with a cougar was a turn on for her?  If that was her kink, I was the luckiest cat in the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She cupped her pussy with one hand, then pushed two fingers inside herself.  She reached out and rubbed her damp fingers on my muzzle.  The smell was intoxicating.  Blood rushed to my crotch and I was fully engorged almost instantly.  Although I was in halfway into cat form, I kept my cock mostly human for two reasons.  To be honest, we felines just aren&#039;t well hung.  Even lions are lacking in the package.  Second, I didn&#039;t want to hurt her.  We have barbed, spiky penises.  I wanted to please her, not leave her a bloody mess down there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She turned and knelt on the mattress with her back to me, then dropped to all fours. With a come-hither look over her shoulder, she spread her knees apart, fully exposing that wonderfully-scented moistness. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My feline brain wanted to jump her, but I paused.  I was genuinely fond of this woman.  I didn&#039;t want to fuck her.  Well, yes, I did, but I wanted to make love to her.  I mean, I may be an animal, but I&#039;m not an &#039;&#039;animal.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I moved up alongside her, licked her on the nose, and rolled her onto her back.  I stepped over her and licked her nose again.  I rubbed my cheeks against hers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Scent making me, claiming me as yours?&amp;quot; she asked.  I nodded yes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I slowly started working my way down her body, licking and kissing and revelling in the subtle variations in her scent in the crook of her neck, her shoulder, the valley of her cleavage.  I gently licked her breast, letting the texture of my rough tongue do the work instead of pressure as I worked up to her nipple.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By the time I got to her aureole, it was hard.  It had an intoxicating scent of its own.  I gently sucked her nipple into my mouth, pressed my tongue against it, and purred.  She yelped, so I did it again on the other side.  She meeped again, not as loudly.  I had lost the element of surprise, but her noises told me I was doing something right.  I switched off between them until she was gasping for breath.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I work my way down her stomach, licking and purring as I went.  I groomed her pussy hair, then pushed my snout between her legs.  She giggled as my whiskers brushed the inside of her thighs.  &amp;quot;Stop that! It tickles!&amp;quot;  I didn&#039;t stop.  Instead, I licked her folds softly, afraid my tongue might be too abrasive.  I gently worked my tongue inside her, then upwards until I felt her button.  I took a deep breath, and let it out with a loud purr.  Yeah that worked.  I did it again.  The noises she made!  It wasn&#039;t long before she was moaning and writhing.  I started lapping her clit like I was drinking water, tap-tap-tapping with my tongue.  I kept it up, purring, licking and sucking, careful of my sharp teeth and rough tongue, until with a loud moan, she clamped her thighs around my head.  The pulse in the big arteries in her legs pounded in my ears.  She grabbed me behind the ears and held me still until the tremors and her heartbeat subsided.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She let me go, and rolled back onto all fours.  With a sultry look over her shoulder, she said,  “Take me, turn me, I’m yours!”  With a pounce I covered her.  I gently nipped her neck between my fangs, and dropped my hips to enter her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Aaaand...&#039;&#039; I missed. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pussy pussies are farther back than a woman&#039;s, just below the bung. It was kind of embarrassing. I was glad my fur covered my red face. Before I could try again, she reached back and grasped me by the cock.  After a few strokes with her hand, she said, “Where are your barbs?  I want to feel your spiky cock inside me.”   &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I didn&#039;t want to hurt you,” I said as I shifted the member in question.  She pulled me down and forward and guided me inside her.  Fuck! I thought.  She actually &#039;&#039;wants&#039;&#039; this?  Cock barbs and all?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I started pumping into her.  I had not had sex with a human woman since I was changed, so I was a bit worried that I&#039;d do it wrong.  I wanted it to feel good for her.  It must have; she was soon moaning again.  Or maybe it was her hypothetical cat fetish. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She moved with me, pushing back into my thrusts to take me fully inside herself, moaning with each one.  The loudness and pitch increased until she yelped and I felt her contracting around me.  That took me over the edge.  I gave her the fluids that would keep her safe from the wolves, and hopefully not wreck her life.  She collapsed onto the mattress with me on top of her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a minute.  I started the change back to human.  She felt my body shifting against her, and rolled over.  &amp;quot;Don&#039;t change,&amp;quot; she said.  &amp;quot;I like you like this.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Still inside her, I rolled us over onto our sides, with my body between her and the cold wall.  I pulled her close, nuzzled her ear and purred.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mmm. I&#039;m going to ask you to stop that.  Sometime around three in the afternoon, I think.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Our presentation is at two,&amp;quot; I replied.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Fuck the presentation!&amp;quot; She said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I&#039;d rather fuck you again.  Besides, how do you fuck a Powerpoint file?&amp;quot;  That made her chuckle.  Yeah, there was the woman I had wanted to love for two years, but couldn&#039;t.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There was a knock on the door.  The bolts slid back, and as the door opened, I put my arm across Rowan&#039;s breasts and draped my tail over her privates.  Emily looked in and chuckled.  Surprisingly, she was fully human, and fully nude.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You&#039;re such a gentleman.  Anyway, now that that&#039;s done, you two can come upstairs and sleep in the guest room if you want.  It has a real bed, pillows, blankets, and all that.&amp;quot;  She looked at me and said, &amp;quot;Could you stay like that, so the pack can see you and smell you and know you really are a cougar?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We gathered our things.  Ro threw her dress over her head.  I hooked a thumb claw into the hole in the end of the zipper pull, and pulled it up for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The stairs of the old house were steep enough that Emily&#039;s butt was even with my nose.  A trail of wolfy lust musk wafted behind her.  Rowan probably couldn&#039;t smell it, but I could tell Em had probably wanked to the sounds of our passion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Like what you see, tomcat?” Emily asked.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yeah, puppy,” I replied, “but I like this, better.”  I wrapped my arm around Rowan and pulled her close.  She laid her head on my shoulder and made a happy sound.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d have to tell Rowan about the different meaning of privacy among shapeshifters.  With our better hearing and smell, everyone knows who&#039;s doing who.  We really can&#039;t hide it.  Emily must have heard everything we did, and maybe even smelled it.  Shifter society only works if we can put aside our jealousies and feel happy for people that share each other&#039;s bodies.  Not all of us can.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first floor was littered with puppy piles.  Some were just cuddling.  Others smelled of sex.  Ro shuddered and buried her face in my shoulder.  Golden eyes followed us, well mostly me, to the front stairs.  Emily led us upstairs to a back bedroom, motioned us in, and followed us.  Moonlight flooded the room through the lace curtains to show a four-poster queen bed. Our bags had been brought in from Ro&#039;s car.  Emily opened the door on the left, and said &amp;quot;The bathroom is in here.  My bedroom shares it, so just knock if you need anything.  Otherwise, I&#039;ll see you two lovecats in the morning.&amp;quot;  She closed the door behind her and disappeared.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I awoke the next morning to fingers caressing my muzzle.  They smelled of pussy juice.  The hand retreated back under the covers, down my front and started massaging my sheath.  I lifted the blanket to see Ro smiling up at me.  Her touch and the scent caused blood to rush to my groin and engorge me.  As soon as my tip slipped out of its sheath, her lips surrounded it, kissing and sucking and licking me as it emerged.  When I filled her mouth, she stopped and straddled me.  She pressed the underside of me against her nethers and rocked her hips, rubbing her slit against me.  Satisfied that I was sufficiently lubed, she lifted me up and slid me inside her silky moistness.  She leaned forward and kissed my snout.  “Good morning!  I thought this would be a nice way to start the day.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Mmm.  It is!”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Besides, I figured having more cougar juice inside me wouldn’t hurt.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“So, you’re okay with this?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“More than okay!  I have the man I’ve always wanted inside me, and … I’ve always wanted to be a cat.”  She blushed and continued,  “When I breed my girls, I wish I knew what it feels like.  And now I do.  You&#039;ve fulfilled my most impossible sex fantasy, my impossible kink.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, yes. And there it was.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You don’t, though.  Not really.  Not yet.  You’ve been fucked by a cat.  You haven’t fucked as a cat.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“What’s different?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I can’t really describe it, and it may be  different for girls, but it&#039;s just different.  Emotionally, it’s more primal.  Sensually, too.  Your senses of smell and hearing will be sharper.  There’s nothing like the scent of your lover’s arousal to turn you on, or hearing their pulse in their thighs when you go down on them, speeding up to tell you it’s working.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Thanks for giving me something to look forward to.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Speaking of senses, you know what made that day really hard, when I asked you to stop?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;One of your girls was in heat.  She must have sat in your lap before you came to work. I really wanted to bend you over that table.  I had a friend with benefits then.  She&#039;s a  doctor.  I had to take a long lunch with her in her exam room.  I&#039;m lucky she had a cancellation.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Had?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yeah.  She has a girlfriend now that doesn&#039;t like to share.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I&#039;d like to meet them.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;That&#039;s probably a good idea.  Actually, Ankita should be your doctor now.  We woudn&#039;t want your current doctor to ask awkward questions.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Like what?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You&#039;re probably going to lose fat and gain muscle.  She may want to know how you did it.  Blood chemistry changes, too.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Okay. I&#039;ll think about it&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Rowan? Can I ask you something?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Sure!&amp;quot; she said, as she started rocking her hips.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I owe it to you to teach you how to be a were-cougar.  In the woods, in public, and ... in bed.&amp;quot;  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Okay. Sounds good so far.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I looked her in the eye.  &amp;quot;After that, though, would you want to try for something long term?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Love to!&amp;quot; she said, as she started grinding into my hips. &amp;quot;Now stop talking and let me fuck you!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mmmnhh!&amp;quot; was all I said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rowan and I went downstairs to find Emily, and hopefully John.  Following the scent of bacon, I led Ro into a dining room.  There was a huge table that sat three across the short ends and six along the sides.  Pack members, all in human form, filled most of the seats.  John was sitting at a corner, pushing some eggs around on his plate.  There was an empty seat between him and Emily.  She saw us, and moved to get up.  Ro said, &amp;quot;No, stay!&amp;quot;  She motioned me to take the seat, and slid into my lap.  She put a hand on John&#039;s shoulder and asked gently, &amp;quot;How are you doing with all this craziness?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He just looked at us with haunted eyes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Suddenly, someone placed two platters of eggs and bacon in front of us. I said thanks to the motherly woman that had put them down. She looked at John and said, &amp;quot;Don&#039;t worry about your friend.  We&#039;ll take care of him.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;So, I hear this isn&#039;t new to you?&amp;quot; he asked me.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yeah.  Since college, actually.  I&#039;m sorry I couldn&#039;t help you.  I was unconscious until too late.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;It couldn&#039;t be helped, from what I understand.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I could&#039;t have prevented it, but maybe I could have changed how it happened.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A door opened, and Vivian&#039;s scent blew past me.  She breezed in, looked at Ro and me, said, &amp;quot;That looks cozy!&amp;quot; and plopped into John&#039;s lap.  He sat there, stone-faced, as she put an arm around his shoulder.  &amp;quot;C&#039;mon lover! Why the long face?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I looked at her and said, &amp;quot;You really don&#039;t know, do you?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Know what?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What you did to him!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I followed pack law! I had to!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You didn&#039;t have to do it the way you did.  Look, John is the ultimate expression of an engineer.  If he had a religion, it would be the scientific method.  If there&#039;s no proof, if it&#039;s not logical, he rejects it.  Suddenly, his entire worldview was ripped out from beneath him.  If werefolk exist, what else is real? Astrology? Champ?&amp;quot;  I was referring to the Nessie-like creature puported to live in Lake Champlain. &amp;quot;Vampires?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ro cut in.  &amp;quot;I think it&#039;s not so much what you did.  It&#039;s how you did it.  There&#039;s a saying: &#039;If you can&#039;t change something, change how you think about it.&#039;  That&#039;s the biggest thing Jake did for me.  He gave me time to understand what was happening and come to grips with it.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I added, &amp;quot;You didn&#039;t do that.  You have a law degree, passed the bar, apparently you&#039;re fairly high up in pack leadership.  You&#039;re obviously smart.  You should have realized this.  Instead, you thought with your crotch.&amp;quot;  I paused to hammer my point home.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You raped him.&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;This story has the same lead character as [[Cougar Town]] but I think it will stand alone.  It takes place about 15 years later.  It has adult content, some of it nonconsentual&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I hope Vivian won&#039;t be there.&amp;quot; John said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You know she will,&amp;quot; replied Rowan.  &amp;quot;The conference is in the same city as her office.  You need to tell her to either stop flirting with you, or date you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I tried that.  She just laughed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was a chilly February afternoon. and Ro, John and I were in her Accord, driving from Syracuse, NY to Rochester for the annual Engineer&#039;s Week convention.  John was a tall fellow, so I let him sit in the passenger seat.  I was in the back.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We were going to represent our employer, Leightner McFarland Engineering, at the convention.  Rowan and I were presenting about the success of our village streetscape project.  I was the design engineer and responsible for the overall project.  Rowan had designed the sidewalks, landscaping, and drainage.  John headed another design team, and was going to talk to prospective clients.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian is LME&#039;s lead real estate lawyer.  John had to work with Vivian because his project involved extensive right-of-way purchases.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Vivian often flirts with John to the very limits of professional office behavior, and sometimes beyond.  As soon as he responds, though, she gets frigid.  It doesn&#039;t help that Vivian is a gorgeous redhead.  Anyone could see why John hated it.  Unlike most people, however, I can tell how serious her  case of the hots for him was.  I can smell it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also know why she can&#039;t act on it.  You see, Vivian has a secret.  I can smell that, too.  She is a werewolf. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How can I smell it? I have a secret, too.  I&#039;m a were-cougar. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I can sympathize with Vivian to some extent.  Rowan flirted with me when she first joined the company.  It was hard for me.  Ro is a pretty brunette with blue eyes and fair skin, with intelligence and personality to match.  I wanted so much to ask her out, but I couldn&#039;t, and it wasn&#039;t because of the company&#039;s policy about dating subordinates.  I finally told her to stop.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well at least her hair makes her easy to spot,&amp;quot; Ro said.  &amp;quot;Don&#039;t worry.  Jake and I will run interference for you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, John&#039;s phone beeped.  John looked at it and said, &amp;quot;The Thruway is closed ahead.  Bad crash.  Waze says take the next exit.  It looks like we&#039;re taking the back roads.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well, crap!&amp;quot; Ro said.  &amp;quot;At least there will be a full moon tonight, so it&#039;ll be easier to see on the back roads.&amp;quot;  I was already feeling the tingle of energy from the moon.  Felines like me aren&#039;t as strongly tied to the moon as werewolves, but we still hear her call.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As we drove west through the upstate New York countryside, we were treated to a gorgeous sunset shining on winter snow front of us, as the moon rose behind us.  Ro was enjoying it, pumping the clutch and flicking the Honda&#039;s shift lever from gear to gear to match the engine speed to the curves and hills.  She bought the Honda because it was one of the few sedans still available with a manual transmission.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We crested a hill and were greeted by the sight of an old farmhouse and barn across the valley, glowing in the light of the setting sun.  As we dropped down into the shadow of the valley, I caught a flicker of motion off to the right.  &amp;quot;Look out!&amp;quot; I yelled, just as a doe lept over the road.  The grey blur following it crashed into the front of the car, smashed the windshield, and disappeared over the roof.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rowan slammed the brake pedal hard. The ABS clattered like mad as the car slewed to a stop. We all got out.  John went to check the damage to the car, and Ro looked for whatever we hit.  As I opened my door, the scent hit me.  Werewolves!  &amp;quot;Get back in the car, NOW!&amp;quot; I yelled.  She looked at me, then behind me, and screamed.  Something slammed into the back of the head, and the world went red and black.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I came to with the throbbing head and nausea of a concussion.  I part-changed to cougar and back to heal the damage, then assessed the situation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first thing I noticed was a damp basement odor, overlayed with the scents of wolves. Lots of wolves. I was lying on a cold, grimy stone floor. The light of a bare bulb showed that we were in a cage in an old basement, probably the in the farmhouse we saw. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rowan was curled up in a ball in the corner, sobbing and rocking back and forth. She reeked with fear. She had a severe dog phobia. She was attacked by one as a kid, and they can still put her on the edge of panic. Werewolves would scare any normal human. To a cynophobe like her, they&#039;d be paralyzing. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Outside the bars were two male and two female werewolves. They were half-changed - still bipedal, but with fur and tails and fangs and thick blunt claws.  John was on the floor outside the cage,  A female with reddish fur was holding his legs as a male pinned his arms to the floor.  She seemed familiar somehow, but I couldn&#039;t quite place it.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I knew what was coming next. Were-folk have a general rule about not letting normal humans know about our existence.  Anyone that knows has to become one of us, for our safety and security.  For wolf packs, though, it has the force of law.  The question was how they would enforce it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The red wolf dug her claws into the front of John&#039;s chinos and rent the fabric into tatters.  The boxers beneath them got the same treatment.  She lowered her muzzle inside the tear and applied her long supple tongue to his crotch.  John started to resist, but a growl and the firm but careful application of her fangs put an end to that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was too late to help John, but maybe I could still help Rowan.  I pulled her close and wrapped my arms around her.  She buried her head into the crook of my neck, sobbing something about dogs.  The scent of her fear tugged at my emotions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Having gotten the results she wanted, the red wolf straddled John&#039;s hips and took him as he watched in horror.  She gyrated her hips, milking him with her pussy while applying her paw-hand to her clit.  Small whimpers from her throat son became loud moans.  Moans became shrieks as she came.  John, against his will, came too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She let out a last sighing moan, then turned to the other female.  &amp;quot;Emily, the other male is yours.  Trey, you can have the female after that.”  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Why does she get to go first?  Who put you in charge, anyway?” one of the males asked in a slightly whiny voice.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“She’s not a threat.  He’s the priority.  Besides, Emily doesn’t whine.  And you know full well that the alphas put me in charge while they are at the council meeting.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, the red female&#039;s scent to my nose.  I should have known.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Emily came into the cage to get me.  I gently set Rowan on the floor and took a fighting stance between her and the wolf.  &amp;quot;I admire your courage,&amp;quot; she said, &amp;quot;but you can&#039;t win.  No human can beat a werewolf.  Come along, and I&#039;ll be gentle.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I snapped a kick to her ribcage.  She slammed back into the bars, and before she could recover, I spun her around facing away from me, got her right arm into a half-nelson and wrapped my other hand around her throat, claws extended and buried in her fur.  Her eyes bulged.  &amp;quot;I’m not human,&amp;quot; I said softly into her ear.  Her scent changed from confidence to confusion and a bit of fear.  &amp;quot;Hush. I don&#039;t want to hurt you.&amp;quot;  Then, more loudly, &amp;quot;Vivian!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian was walking towards the stairs with John over her shoulder.  She stopped, looked at me, and handed John off to the second male.  “Take him up to my room and keep him there,” she said.  She walked up to the cage and asked, &amp;quot;How did you know it was me?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You have a distinctive scent.&amp;quot; I said.  At her puzzled look, I smiled and continued.  &amp;quot;Wolves aren&#039;t the only creatures in the forest, don&#039;t you know.  Not even the scariest.&amp;quot;  That just confused her more. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed, showing her my yellow-gold cougar eyes, and tawny-furred snout and ears.  Light brown fur covered my skin. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What…?  Wow!  You’re…  a cougar?  I had no idea there were shifters besides us wolves!  Well, you obviously won&#039;t be joining our pack, but I don&#039;t think we need to worry about you talking.  Let Emily go and join us for dinner.  We&#039;re having venison.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I shook my head.  &amp;quot;Viv, about Rowan.  She&#039;s no good to you.  A dog mauled her as a kid, and she&#039;s been phobic ever since.  Can&#039;t you smell her?  Can&#039;t you hear her?  Do you really want a pack member that panics every full moon?  Every time she sees one of you with fur on?   Let me turn her.  Heck, she loves cats.  She breeds them.  You&#039;ll be better off with her as a sane cougar than a crazy wolf&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The male she called Trey growled,  &amp;quot;It&#039;s the law.  She must join...&amp;quot;  He fell silent at Vivian&#039;s gesture.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sighed.  &amp;quot;Well, the alphas won&#039;t like it, but you&#039;re probably right.  But if she&#039;s still human in the morning, I’m giving her to Trey.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I let Emily go with an apology, and said to Vivian,  &amp;quot;Do you have any place with a bit more privacy, and less grime?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian nodded.  &amp;quot;Emily, put them in the safe room, please.  Oh, and for letting him get the drop on you, you won&#039;t be joining tonight&#039;s pack run.  Instead, you&#039;ll guard the door and make sure he turns her.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I picked up Ro and followed Emily to a door across the basement.  She opened it and said, &amp;quot;You can stay in here.  It&#039;s still a cell, but at least it has a real floor and a bed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She opened the door and motioned us in. &lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The thick, iron-bound oaken door slammed shut behind us, and several heavy steel bolts slid home.  Enough moonlight came through a heavily barred window near the ceiling of the far wall to see the inside of the door was covered with gouges and claw marks.  Some had old bloodstains.  The irony of the name didn&#039;t escape me.  This safe room wasn&#039;t a refuge in a home invasion or tornado.  They lock up deranged wolves to keep the rest of the pack safe.  The kind Rowan would likely become if I failed.  I shuddered at the thought.  If the pack took her, she&#039;d probably spend all her full moons in here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I set Rowan down on the stained, ragged mattress in the corner.  It wasn&#039;t really a bed, but at least it wasn&#039;t the cold stone floor.  I sat next to her and pulled her onto my lap.  She was still in the grips of her panic attack, rocking back and forth muttering &amp;quot;Dogs! Dogs!&amp;quot; over and over.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Long ago, I swore an oath to myself that I&#039;d never change anyone without their consent, as I was.  She couldn&#039;t consent during a panic attack, but could I let Trey violate her?  Would doing it myself be the lesser evil?  I hoped I wouldn&#039;t have to make that choice.  I had to get her calmed down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I started murmuring into her ear.  “Hey, I got you. No dogs in here.”  After a while, it occurred to me.  Her cats were her babies.  What&#039;s more calming than a purring kitty?  I held her close and purred softly as I spoke.  It seemed to help, so I increased the volume.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It took a while, but it worked.  The scent of her panic never completely went away, but it did ebb.  The angle of the moonlight from the window told me it had been a few hours before she finally calmed down enough to sit up and look around.  In a shaky voice, she asked, &amp;quot;Are the dogs gone?  Where are we?  Where&#039;s John?&amp;quot;  And then, &amp;quot;Did you hear a cat?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I pulled her close, kissed her forehead gently, and said, &amp;quot;It&#039;s okay.  Well, it&#039;s far from okay, but it could be worse.&amp;quot;  I took a breath.  &amp;quot;Rowan, we&#039;re being held prisoner.  By werewolves.&amp;quot;  She made a scoffing noise.  &amp;quot;Yes, they are real.  Very, very real.  John is on his way to becoming one of them.&amp;quot;  I paused for a breath.  &amp;quot;I couldn&#039;t save him, but I made a deal with them for you.  The bad news is, you&#039;re not leaving this room as a human.  The good news is you have a choice.  Let me turn you, or they will, probably by force like they did to John&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Turn me into what?&amp;quot;  Her voice was skeptical.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Were-cougar, Or puma if you prefer.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;So, you&#039;re telling me we&#039;re captives of mythical creatures, you&#039;re a different mythical creature, and I have to choose between you and them.&amp;quot;  Her tone was sarcastic and unbelieving.  &amp;quot;You expect me to believe that if you bite me, I&#039;ll magically turn into a cougar?  Extraordinary claims require...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Extraordinary proof, I know.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I took her hand and pulled it, palm up, into the moonlight.  I let go, and placed my hand in her palm.  A moment&#039;s concentration, and my fingernails lengthened into sharp, hooked claws. Tough but supple pads formed under my knuckles and the middle joint of my fingers.  Tawny fur covered the rest and up into my sleeve.  With a quick indrawn breath, she caressed my fur, prodded my pads, and gently ran fingertips over the points of my claws. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Is this real?&amp;quot; she asked. &amp;quot;Am I dreaming?  Drugged?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I set her down on the mattress, kicked off my shoes, pulled off my socks and stood in the moonlight from the window.  Facing her, I unbuttoned my shirt, took it off and dropped it on the mattress.  I could tell she liked what she saw.  I&#039;m not muscle-bound by any means, but I am fit and toned.  After unbuckling my belt and opening my fly, I hooked my thumbs over the waistbands of my pants and briefs and pushed them down to my ankles, changing as I did.  I pulled my hind paws out of my pants and padded over to her on all fours.  Her astonishment was plain on her face.  I head-butted her a few times, then touched my muzzle to her nose.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Smiling with amazement, she reached up and tentatively touched my long whiskers, then the fur on my cheek.  &amp;quot;Oh. My. God,&amp;quot; she said.  &amp;quot;You&#039;re real!  You&#039;re fuckin&#039; real!  She started scratching behind my ears with both hands.  I couldn&#039;t help myself.  I started purring.  It&#039;s the best part of being one of the lesser cats.  Lions, tigers, jaguars and leopards get the press, but they can&#039;t purr.  We can&#039;t roar, but a snarl is almost as good, and purring is more fun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ro laughed out loud with delight.  &amp;quot;That was you!&amp;quot; she exclaimed.  I had the wrong mouth shape to talk now, so I nodded yes.  &amp;quot;So, I&#039;ll be able to change and purr and all this, too?&amp;quot;  I nodded yes again.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She put her hand in front of my face and said, “Go ahead. Bite me”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed so I could talk.  I took her hand in mine, placed it on my cheek, then kissed the hollow of her palm.  “I&#039;d rather not bite you.  That&#039;s uncivilized and not really that effective.  I’d have to get my saliva into a major artery or vein.  It’s not worth the risk.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Then how…?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Remember that day I told you to stop flirting with me?  That was probably the hardest thing I’ve had to do since becoming a cougar.  Part of me wanted to drag you into the conference room, lock the doors, and bend you over the table.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I would have let you.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I know.  And the next full moon, you’d be sprouting fur. I couldn’t do that to you without your consent.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I would have given it.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“But what if you didn’t?  Once you knew, you&#039;d have to become one of us.  I’d have to rape you, and I couldn’t do that.”  I paused and put my other hand on her cheek, then slid it under her hair to the back of her neck. “What I’m trying to say is, if you still want me, I’m yours.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh, &#039;&#039;reeeally&#039;&#039;?&amp;quot; She said with a smile as she stood up.  She unzipped her dress and slowly let it drop to the ground.  Her bra and panties soon followed, and she stood in front of me wearing just thigh-highs and kitten-heeled boots.  The scent of her nethers tickled my nose. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I dropped my jaw a little and pulled up my upper lip, so her scent could reach the special receptors in the roof of my mouth.  Yes, she was damp.  Wet, even.  Doing it with a cougar was a turn on for her?  If that was her kink, I was the luckiest cat in the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She cupped her pussy with one hand, then pushed two fingers inside herself.  She reached out and rubbed her damp fingers on my muzzle.  The smell was intoxicating.  Blood rushed to my crotch and I was fully engorged almost instantly.  Although I was in halfway into cat form, I kept my cock mostly human for two reasons.  To be honest, we felines just aren&#039;t well hung.  Even lions are lacking in the package.  Second, I didn&#039;t want to hurt her.  We have barbed, spiky penises.  I wanted to please her, not leave her a bloody mess down there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She turned and knelt on the mattress with her back to me, then dropped to all fours. With a come-hither look over her shoulder, she spread her knees apart, fully exposing that wonderfully-scented moistness. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My feline brain wanted to jump her, but I paused.  I was genuinely fond of this woman.  I didn&#039;t want to fuck her.  Well, yes, I did, but I wanted to make love to her.  I mean, I may be an animal, but I&#039;m not an &#039;&#039;animal.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I moved up alongside her, licked her on the nose, and rolled her onto her back.  I stepped over her and licked her nose again.  I rubbed my cheeks against hers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Scent making me, claiming me as yours?&amp;quot; she asked.  I nodded yes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I slowly started working my way down her body, licking and kissing and revelling in the subtle variations in her scent in the crook of her neck, her shoulder, the valley of her cleavage.  I gently licked her breast, letting the texture of my rough tongue do the work instead of pressure as I worked up to her nipple.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By the time I got to her aureole, it was hard.  It had an intoxicating scent of its own.  I gently sucked her nipple into my mouth, pressed my tongue against it, and purred.  She yelped, so I did it again on the other side.  She meeped again, not as loudly.  I had lost the element of surprise, but her noises told me I was doing something right.  I switched off between them until she was gasping for breath.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I work my way down her stomach, licking and purring as I went.  I groomed her pussy hair, then pushed my snout between her legs.  She giggled as my whiskers brushed the inside of her thighs.  &amp;quot;Stop that! It tickles!&amp;quot;  I didn&#039;t stop.  Instead, I licked her folds softly, afraid my tongue might be too abrasive.  I gently worked my tongue inside her, then upwards until I felt her button.  I took a deep breath, and let it out with a loud purr.  Yeah that worked.  I did it again.  The noises she made!  It wasn&#039;t long before she was moaning and writhing.  I started lapping her clit like I was drinking water, tap-tap-tapping with my tongue.  I kept it up, purring, licking and sucking, careful of my sharp teeth and rough tongue, until with a loud moan, she clamped her thighs around my head.  The pulse in the big arteries in her legs pounded in my ears.  She grabbed me behind the ears and held me still until the tremors and her heartbeat subsided.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She let me go, and rolled back onto all fours.  With a sultry look over her shoulder, she said,  “Take me, turn me, I’m yours!”  With a pounce I covered her.  I gently nipped her neck between my fangs, and dropped my hips to enter her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Aaaand...&#039;&#039; I missed. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pussy pussies are farther back than a woman&#039;s, just below the bung. It was kind of embarrassing. I was glad my fur covered my red face. Before I could try again, she reached back and grasped me by the cock.  After a few strokes with her hand, she said, “Where are your barbs?  I want to feel your spiky cock inside me.”   &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I didn&#039;t want to hurt you,” I said as I shifted the member in question.  She pulled me down and forward and guided me inside her.  Fuck! I thought.  She actually &#039;&#039;wants&#039;&#039; this?  Cock barbs and all?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I started pumping into her.  I had not had sex with a human woman since I was changed, so I was a bit worried that I&#039;d do it wrong.  I wanted it to feel good for her.  It must have; she was soon moaning again.  Or maybe it was her hypothetical cat fetish. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She moved with me, pushing back into my thrusts to take me fully inside herself, moaning with each one.  The loudness and pitch increased until she yelped and I felt her contracting around me.  That took me over the edge.  I gave her the fluids that would keep her safe from the wolves, and hopefully not wreck her life.  She collapsed onto the mattress with me on top of her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a minute.  I started the change back to human.  She felt my body shifting against her, and rolled over.  &amp;quot;Don&#039;t change,&amp;quot; she said.  &amp;quot;I like you like this.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Still inside her, I rolled us over onto our sides, with my body between her and the cold wall.  I pulled her close, nuzzled her ear and purred.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mmm. I&#039;m going to ask you to stop that.  Sometime around three in the afternoon, I think.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Our presentation is at two,&amp;quot; I replied.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Fuck the presentation!&amp;quot; She said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I&#039;d rather fuck you again.  Besides, how do you fuck a Powerpoint file?&amp;quot;  That made her chuckle.  Yeah, there was the woman I had wanted to love for two years, but couldn&#039;t.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There was a knock on the door.  The bolts slid back, and as the door opened, I put my arm across Rowan&#039;s breasts and draped my tail over her privates.  Emily looked in and chuckled.  Surprisingly, she was fully human, and fully nude.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You&#039;re such a gentleman.  Anyway, now that that&#039;s done, you two can come upstairs and sleep in the guest room if you want.  It has a real bed, pillows, blankets, and all that.&amp;quot;  She looked at me and said, &amp;quot;Could you stay like that, so the pack can see you and smell you and know you really are a cougar?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We gathered our things.  Ro threw her dress over her head.  I hooked a thumb claw into the hole in the end of the zipper pull, and pulled it up for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The stairs of the old house were steep enough that Emily&#039;s butt was even with my nose.  A trail of wolfy lust musk wafted behind her.  Rowan probably couldn&#039;t smell it, but I could tell Em had probably wanked to the sounds of our passion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Like what you see, tomcat?” Emily asked.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yeah, puppy,” I replied, “but I like this, better.”  I wrapped my arm around Rowan and pulled her close.  She laid her head on my shoulder and made a happy sound.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d have to tell Rowan about the different meaning of privacy among shapeshifters.  With our better hearing and smell, everyone knows who&#039;s doing who.  We really can&#039;t hide it.  Emily must have heard everything we did, and maybe even smelled it.  Shifter society only works if we can put aside our jealousies and feel happy for people that share each other&#039;s bodies.  Not all of us can.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first floor was littered with puppy piles.  Some were just cuddling.  Others smelled of sex.  Ro shuddered and buried her face in my shoulder.  Golden eyes followed us, well mostly me, to the front stairs.  Emily led us upstairs to a back bedroom, motioned us in, and followed us.  Moonlight flooded the room through the lace curtains to show a four-poster queen bed. Our bags had been brought in from Ro&#039;s car.  Emily opened the door on the left, and said &amp;quot;The bathroom is in here.  My bedroom shares it, so just knock if you need anything.  Otherwise, I&#039;ll see you two lovecats in the morning.&amp;quot;  She closed the door behind her and disappeared.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I awoke the next morning to fingers caressing my muzzle.  They smelled of pussy juice.  The hand retreated back under the covers, down my front and started massaging my sheath.  I lifted the blanket to see Ro smiling up at me.  Her touch and the scent caused blood to rush to my groin and engorge me.  As soon as my tip slipped out of its sheath, her lips surrounded it, kissing and sucking and licking me as it emerged.  When I filled her mouth, she stopped and straddled me.  She pressed the underside of me against her nethers and rocked her hips, rubbing her slit against me.  Satisfied that I was sufficiently lubed, she lifted me up and slid me inside her silky moistness.  She leaned forward and kissed my snout.  “Good morning!  I thought this would be a nice way to start the day.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Mmm.  It is!”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Besides, I figured having more cougar juice inside me wouldn’t hurt.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“So, you’re okay with this?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“More than okay!  I have the man I’ve always wanted inside me, and … I’ve always wanted to be a cat.”  She blushed and continued,  “When I breed my girls, I wish I knew what it feels like.  And now I do.  You&#039;ve fulfilled my most impossible sex fantasy, my impossible kink.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, yes. And there it was.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You don’t, though.  Not really.  Not yet.  You’ve been fucked by a cat.  You haven’t fucked as a cat.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“What’s different?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I can’t really describe it, and it may be  different for girls, but it&#039;s just different.  Emotionally, it’s more primal.  Sensually, too.  Your senses of smell and hearing will be sharper.  There’s nothing like the scent of your lover’s arousal to turn you on, or hearing their pulse in their thighs when you go down on them, speeding up to tell you it’s working.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Thanks for giving me something to look forward to.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Speaking of senses, you know what made that day really hard, when I asked you to stop?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;One of your girls was in heat.  She must have sat in your lap before you came to work. I really wanted to bend you over that table.  I had a friend with benefits then.  She&#039;s a  doctor.  I had to take a long lunch with her in her exam room.  I&#039;m lucky she had a cancellation.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Had?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yeah.  She has a girlfriend now that doesn&#039;t like to share.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I&#039;d like to meet them.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You will.  Actually, Vashni should be your doctor now.  We woudn&#039;t want your current doctor to ask awkward questions.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Like what?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You&#039;re probably going to lose fat and gain muscle.  She may want to know how you did it.  Blood chemistry changes, too.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Okay. I&#039;ll think about it&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Rowan? Can I ask you something?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Sure!&amp;quot; she said, as she started rocking her hips.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I owe it to you to teach you how to be a were-cougar.  In the woods, in public, and ... in bed.&amp;quot;  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Okay. Sounds good so far.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I looked her in the eye.  &amp;quot;After that, though, would you want to try for something long term?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Love to!&amp;quot; she said, as she started grinding into my hips. &amp;quot;Now stop talking and let me fuck you!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mmmnhh!&amp;quot; was all I said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rowan and I went downstairs to find Emily, and hopefully John.  Following the scent of bacon, I led Ro into a dining room.  There was a huge table that sat three across the short ends and six along the sides.  Pack members, all in human form, filled most of the seats.  John was sitting at a corner, pushing some eggs around on his plate.  There was an empty seat between him and Emily.  She saw us, and moved to get up.  Ro said, &amp;quot;No, stay!&amp;quot;  She motioned me to take the seat, and slid into my lap.  She put a hand on John&#039;s shoulder and asked gently, &amp;quot;How are you doing with all this craziness?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He just looked at us with haunted eyes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Suddenly, someone placed two platters of eggs and bacon in front of us. I said thanks to the motherly woman that had put them down. She looked at John and said, &amp;quot;Don&#039;t worry about your friend.  We&#039;ll take care of him.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;So, I hear this isn&#039;t new to you?&amp;quot; he said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yeah.  Since college, actually.  I&#039;m sorry I couldn&#039;t help you.  I was unconscious until too late.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;It couldn&#039;t be helped, from what I understand.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I could&#039;t have prevented it, but maybe I could have changed how it happened.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A door opened, and Vivian&#039;s scent blew past me.  She breezed in, looked at Ro and me, said, &amp;quot;That looks cozy!&amp;quot; and plopped into John&#039;s lap.  He sat there, stone-faced, as she put an arm around his shoulder.  &amp;quot;C&#039;mon lover! Why the long face?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I looked at her and said, &amp;quot;You really don&#039;t know, do you?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Know what?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What you did to him!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I followed pack law! I had to!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You don&#039;t understand.  If John had a religion, it would be the scientific method.  If there&#039;s no proof, he didn&#039;t believe in it.  Suddenly, his entire worldview was ripped out from beneath him.  If werefolk exist, what else is really true? Astrology? Champ?&amp;quot;  I was referring to the Nessie-like creature puported to live in Lake Champlain. &amp;quot;Vampires?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ro cut in.  &amp;quot;I think it&#039;s not so much what you did.  It&#039;s how you did it.  There&#039;s a saying: &#039;If you can&#039;t change something, change how you think about it.&#039;  That&#039;s the biggest thing Jake did for me.  He gave me time to understand what was happining and come to terms with it.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You didn&#039;t do that.  You have a law degree, passed the bar, apparently you&#039;re fairly high up in pack leadership.  You should have realized this.  Instead, you thought with your crotch.&amp;quot;  I paused to hammer my point home.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You raped him.&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;This story has the same lead character as [[Cougar Town]] but I think it will stand alone.  It takes place about 15 years later.  It has adult content, some of it nonconsentual&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I hope Vivian won&#039;t be there.&amp;quot; John said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You know she will,&amp;quot; replied Rowan.  &amp;quot;The conference is in the same city as her office.  You need to tell her to either stop flirting with you, or date you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I tried that.  She just laughed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ro, John and I were in her Accord, driving from Syracuse, NY to Rochester for an engineering convention.  John, a tall, dark haired fellow, was in the passenger seat.  I was in the back, behind Rowan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We were going to represent our employer, Leightner McFarland Engineering, at the Engineer&#039;s Weel convention.  Rowan and I were presenting about the success of our village streetscape project.  I was the design engineer and responsible for the overall project.  Rowan had designed the sidewalks, landscaping, and drainage.  John headed another design team, and was going to talk to prospective clients.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian is LME&#039;s lead real estate lawyer.  John had to work with Vivian because his project involved extensive right-of-way purchases.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Vivian often flirts with John to the very limits of professional office behavior, and sometimes beyond.  As soon as he responds, though, she gets frigid.  It doesn&#039;t help that Vivian is a gorgeous redhead.  Anyone could see why John hated it.  Unlike most people, however, I can tell she has a serious case of the hots for him.  I can smell it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also know why she can&#039;t act on it.  You see, Vivian has a secret.  I can smell that, too.  She is a werewolf. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How can I smell it? I have a secret, too.  I&#039;m a were-cougar. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I can sympathize with Vivian to some extent.  Rowan flirted with me when she first joined the company.  It was hard for me.  Ro is a pretty brunette with blue eyes and fair skin, with intelligence and personality to match.  I wanted so much to ask her out, but I couldn&#039;t, and it wasn&#039;t because of the company&#039;s policy about dating subordinates.  I finally told her to stop.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well at least her hair makes her easy to spot,&amp;quot; Ro said.  &amp;quot;Don&#039;t worry.  Jake and I will run interference for you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, John&#039;s phone beeped.  John looked at it and said, &amp;quot;The Thruway is closed ahead.  Bad crash.  Waze says take the next exit.  It looks like we&#039;re taking the back roads.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well, crap!&amp;quot; Ro said.  &amp;quot;At least there will be a full moon tonight, so it&#039;ll be easier to see on the back roads.&amp;quot;  I was already feeling the tingle of energy from the moon.  Felines like me aren&#039;t as strongly tied to the moon as werewolves, but we still hear her call.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As we drove west through the upstate New York countryside, we were treated to a gorgeous sunset in front of us as the moon rose behind us.  Ro was enjoying it, pumping the clutch and flicking the Honda&#039;s shift lever from gear to gear to match the engine speed to the curves and hills.  She bought the Honda because it&#039;s one of the few sedans still available with a manual transmission.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We crested a hill and were greeted by the sight of an old farmhouse and barn across the valley, glowing in the light of the setting sun.  As we dropped down into the shadow of the valley, I caught a flicker of motion off to the right.  &amp;quot;Look out!&amp;quot; I yelled, just as a doe lept over the road.  The grey blur following it crashed into the front of the car, smashed the windshield, and disappeared over the roof.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rowan slammed the brake pedal hard. The ABS clattered like mad as the car slewed to a stop. We all got out.  John went to check the damage to the car, and Ro looked for whatever we hit.  As I opened my door, the scent hit me.  Werewolves!  &amp;quot;Get back in the car, NOW!&amp;quot; I yelled.  She looked at me, then behind me, and screamed.  Something slammed into the back of the head, and the world went red and black.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I came to with the throbbing head and nausea of a concussion.  I part-changed to cougar and back to heal the damage, then assessed the situation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first thing I noticed was a damp basement odor, overlayed with the scents of wolves. Lots of wolves. I was on a cold, grimy stone floor. The light of a bare bulb showed that we were in a cage in an old basement, probably the in the farmhouse we saw. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rowan was curled up in a ball in the corner, sobbing and rocking back and forth. She reeked with fear. She had a severe dog phobia. She was attacked by one as a kid, and they can still put her on the edge of panic. Werewolves would scare any normal human. To a cynophobe like her, they&#039;d be paralyzing. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Outside the bars were two male and two female werewolves. They were half-changed - still bipedal, but with fur and tails and fangs and thick blunt claws. A female with reddish fur had John pinned him to the floor. She seemed familiar somehow, but I couldn&#039;t quite place it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I knew what was coming next. Were-folk have a general rule about not letting normal humans know about our existence. Anyone that knows has to become one of us, for our safety and security. For wolf packs, though, it has the force of law. The question was how they would enforce it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The red wolf dug her claws into the front of John&#039;s chinos and rent the fabric into tatters.  The boxers beneath them got the same treatment.  She lowered her muzzle inside the tear and applied her long supple tongue to his crotch.  John started to resist, but a growl and the firm but careful application of her fangs put an end to that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was too late to help John, but maybe I could still help Rowan.  I pulled her close and wrapped my arms around her.  She buried her head into the crook of my neck, sobbing something about dogs.  The scent of her fear tugged at my heart.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Having gotten the results she wanted, the red wolf straddled John&#039;s hips and took him as he watched in horror.  She gyrated her hips, milking him with her pussy while applying her paw-hand to her clit.  Small whimpers from her throat son became loud moans.  Moans became shrieks as she came.  John, against his will, came too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She let out a sighing moan, then turned to the other female.  &amp;quot;Emily, the other male is yours.  Trey, you can have the female after that.”  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Why does she get to go first? Who put you in charge, anyway?” one of the males asked in a slightly whiny voice.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“She’s not a threat. He’s the priority. Besides, Emily doesn’t whine.  And you know full well that the alphas put me in charge while they are at the council meeting.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, the red female&#039;s scent to my nose.  I should have known.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Emily came into the cage to get me.  I gently set Rowan on the floor and took a fighting stance between her and the wolf.  &amp;quot;I admire your courage,&amp;quot; she said, &amp;quot;but you can&#039;t win.  No human can beat a werewolf.  Come along, and I&#039;ll be gentle.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I snapped a kick to her ribcage.  She slammed back into the bars, and before she could recover, I spun her around facing away from me, got her right arm into a half-nelson and wrapped my other hand around her throat, claws extended and buried in her fur.  Her eyes bulged.  &amp;quot;I’m not human,&amp;quot; I said softly into her ear.  Her scent changed from confidence to confusion and a bit of fear.  &amp;quot;Hush. I don&#039;t want to hurt you.&amp;quot;  Then, more loudly, &amp;quot;Vivian!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian was walking towards the stairs with John over her shoulder.  She stopped, looked at me, and handed John off to the second male.  “Take him up to my room and keep him there,” she said.  She walked up to the cage and asked, &amp;quot;How did you know it was me?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You have a distinctive scent.&amp;quot; I said.  At her puzzled look, I smiled and continued.  &amp;quot;Wolves aren&#039;t the only creatures in the forest, don&#039;t you know.  Not even the scariest.&amp;quot;  That just confused her more. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed, showing her my yellow-gold cougar eyes, and tawny-furred snout and ears.  Light brown fur covered my skin. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What …?  Wow!  You’re …  a cougar?  I had no idea there were shifters besides us wolves!   Well, you obviously won&#039;t be joining our pack, but I don&#039;t think we need to worry about you talking.  Let Emily go and join us for dinner.  We&#039;re having venison.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I shook my head.  &amp;quot;Viv, about Rowan.  She&#039;s no good to you.  A dog mauled her as a kid, and she&#039;s been phobic ever since.  Can&#039;t you smell her?  Can&#039;t you hear her?  Do you really want a pack member that panics every full moon?  Every time she sees one of you with fur on?   Let me turn her.  Heck, she loves cats.  She breeds them.  You&#039;ll be better off with her as a sane cougar than a crazy wolf&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The male she called Trey growled,  &amp;quot;It&#039;s the law.  She must join...&amp;quot;  He fell silent at Vivian&#039;s gesture.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sighed.  &amp;quot;Well, the alphas won&#039;t like it, but you&#039;re probably right.  But if she&#039;s still human in the morning, I’m giving her to Trey.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I let Emily go with an apology, and said to Vivian,  &amp;quot;Do you have any place with a bit more privacy, and less grime?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian nodded.  &amp;quot;Emily, put them in the safe room, please.  Oh, and for letting him get the drop on you, you won&#039;t be joining tonight&#039;s pack run.  Instead, you&#039;ll guard the door and make sure she&#039;s changed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I picked up Ro and followed Emily to a door across the basement.  She opened it and said, &amp;quot;You can stay in here.  It&#039;s still a cell, but at least it has a real floor and a bed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She opened the door and motioned us in. &lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The thick, iron-bound oaken door slammed shut behind us, and several heavy steel bolts slid home.  Enough moonlight came through a heavily barred window near the ceiling of the far wall to see the inside of the door was covered with gouges and claw marks.  Some had bloodstains.  The irony of the name didn&#039;t escape me.  This safe room wasn&#039;t a refuge in a home invasion or tornado.  They lock up deranged wolves to keep the rest of the pack safe.  The kind Rowan would likely become if I failed.  I shuddered at the thought.  If the pack took her, she&#039;d probably spend all her full moons in here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I set Rowan down on the stained, ragged mattress in the corner.  It wasn&#039;t really a bed, but it was better than the cold stone floor.  I sat next to her and pulled her onto my lap.  She was still in the grips of her panic attack, rocking back and forth muttering &amp;quot;Dogs! Dogs!&amp;quot; over and over.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Long ago, I swore an oath to myself that I&#039;d never change anyone without their consent, as I was. She couldn&#039;t consent during a panic attack, but could I let a wolf rape her? Would raping her myself be the lesser evil? I hoped I wouldn&#039;t have to make that choice. I had to get her calmed down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I started murmuring into her ear.  “Hey, I got you. No dogs in here.”  After a while, It occurred to me.  Her cats were her babies.  What&#039;s more calming than a purring kitty?  I held her close and purred softly as I spoke.  It seemed to help, so I increased the volume.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a while, it worked.  The scent of her panic never completely went away, but it did ebb.  The angle of the moonlight from the window told me it had been a few hours, but she finally calmed down enough to sit up and look around.  In a panicky voice, she asked, &amp;quot;Are the dogs gone?  Where are we?  Where&#039;s John?&amp;quot;  And then, &amp;quot;Did you hear a cat?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I pulled her close, kissed her forehead gently, and said, &amp;quot;It&#039;s okay.   Well, it&#039;s far from okay, but it could be worse.&amp;quot;  I took a breath.  &amp;quot;Rowan, we&#039;re being held prisoner.  By werewolves.&amp;quot;  She made a scoffing noise.  &amp;quot;Yes, they are real.  Very, very real.  John is on his way to becoming one of them.&amp;quot;  I paused for a breath.  &amp;quot;I couldn&#039;t save him, but I made a deal with them for you.  The bad news is, you&#039;re not leaving this room as a human.  The good news is you don&#039;t have to become a wolf. You have a choice.  Let me turn you, or they will, probably by force like they did to John&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Change me into what?&amp;quot;  Her voice was skeptical.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Were-cougar, Or puma if you prefer.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;So, you&#039;re telling me we&#039;re captives of mythical creatures, you&#039;re a different mythical creature, and I have to choose between you and them.&amp;quot;  Her tone was sarcastic and unbelieving.  &amp;quot;You expect me to believe that if you bite me, I&#039;ll magically turn into a cougar?  Extraordinary claims require...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Extraordinary proof, I know. &amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I took her hand and pulled it, palm up, into the moonlight.  I let go, and placed my hand in her palm.  A moment&#039;s concentration, and my fingernails lengthened into sharp, hooked claws. Tough but supple pads formed under my knuckles and the middle joint of my fingers.  Tawny fur covered the rest and up into my sleeve.  With a quick indrawn breath, she caressed my fur, prodded my pads, and gently ran fingertips over the points of my claws. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Is this real?&amp;quot; she asked. &amp;quot;Am I dreaming?  Drugged?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I set her down on the mattress, kicked off my shoes, pulled off my socks and stood in the moonlight from the window.  Facing her, I unbuttoned my shirt, took it off and dropped it on the mattress.  I could tell she liked what she saw.  I&#039;m not muscle-bound by any means, but I am fit and toned.  After unbuckling my belt and opening my fly, I hooked my thumbs over the waistbands of my pants and briefs and pushed them down to my ankles, changing as I did.  I pulled my hind paws out of my pants and padded over to her on all fours.  Her astonishment was plain on her face.  I head-butted her a few times, then touched my muzzle to her nose.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Smiling with amazement, she reached up and tentatively touched my long whiskers, then the fur on my cheek.  &amp;quot;Oh. My. God,&amp;quot; she said.  &amp;quot;You&#039;re real!  You&#039;re effin&#039; real!  She started scratching behind my ears with both hands.  I couldn&#039;t help myself.  I started purring.  It&#039;s the best part of being one of the lesser cats.  Lions, tigers, jaguars and leopards get the press, but they can&#039;t purr.  We can&#039;t roar, but a snarl is almost as good, and purring is more fun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ro laughed out loud with delight.  &amp;quot;That was you!&amp;quot; she exclaimed.  I had the wrong mouth shape to talk now, so I nodded yes.  &amp;quot;So, I&#039;ll be able to change and purr and all this, too?&amp;quot;  I nodded yes again.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She put her hand in front of my face and said, “Go ahead. Bite me”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed so I could talk.  I took her hand in mine, placed it on my cheek, then kissed the hollow of her palm.  “I&#039;d rather not bite you.  That&#039;s uncivilized and not really that effective.  I’d have to get my saliva into a major artery or vein.  It’s not worth the risk.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Then how…?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Remember that day I told you to stop flirting with me?  That was probably the hardest thing I’ve had to do since becoming a cougar.  Part of me wanted to drag you into the conference room, lock the doors, and bend you over the table.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I would have let you.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I know.  And the next full moon, you’d be sprouting fur. I couldn’t do that to you without your consent.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I would have given it.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“But what if you didn’t?  I’d have to rape you, and I couldn’t bear doing that.”  I paused and put my other hand on her cheek, then slid it under her hair to the back of her neck. “What I’m trying to say is, if you still want me, I’m yours.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh, &#039;&#039;reeeally&#039;&#039;?&amp;quot; She said with a smile as she stood up.  She unzipped her dress and slowly let it drop to the ground.  Her bra and panites soon followed, and she stood in front of me wearing just thigh-highs and kitten-heeled boots.  The scent of her nethers tickled my nose. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I dropped my jaw a little and pulled up my upper lip, so her scent could reach the special receptors in the roof of my mouth.  Yes, she was damp.  Wet, even.  Doing it with a cougar was a turn on for her?  If that was her kink, I was the luckiest cat in the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She cupped her pussy with one hand, then pushed two fingers inside herself.  She reached out and rubbed her damp fingers on my muzzle.  The smell was intoxicating.  Blood rushed to my crotch and I was fully engorged almost instantly.  Although I was in cat form, I kept my cock mostly human for two reasons.  To be honest, we felines just aren&#039;t well hung.  Even lions are lacking in the package.  Second, I didn&#039;t want to hurt her.  We have barbed, spiky penises.  I wanted to please her, not leave her a bloody mess down there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She turned and knelt on the mattress with her back to me, then dropped to all fours. With a come-hither look over her shoulder, she spread her knees apart, fully exposing that wonderfully-scented moistness. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My feline brain wanted to jump her, but I paused. I was genuinely fond of this woman.  I didn&#039;t want to fuck her.  Well, yes, I did, but I wanted to make love to her.  I mean, I may be an animal, but I&#039;m not an &#039;&#039;animal.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I moved up alongside her, licked her on the nose, and rolled her onto her back.  I stepped over her and licked her nose again.  I rubbed my cheeks against hers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Scent making me, claiming me as yours?&amp;quot; she asked.  I nodded yes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I slowly started working my way down her body, licking and kissing and revelling in the slight variations in her scent in the crook of her neck, her  shoulder, the valley between her breasts.  I gently licked her breast, letting the texture of my rough tongue do the work instead of pressure  as I worked up to her nipple.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By the time I got to her aureole, she was hard.  It had an intoxicating scent of its own.  I gently sucked her nipple into my mouth, pressed my tongue against it, and purred.  She yelped, so I did it again on the other side.  She meeped again, not as loudly.  I had lost the element of surprise, but her noises told me I was doing something right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Next, I started licking down her stomach.  I pushed my snout between her legs.  She giggled as my whiskers brushed the inside of her thighs.  &amp;quot;Stop that! It tickles!&amp;quot;  I didn&#039;t stop.  Instead, I licked her folds softly, afraid my rough tongue might be too abrasive.  I gently worked my tongue inside her, then upwards until I felt her button.  I took a deep breath, and let it out with a loud purr.  Yeah that worked.  I did it again.  The noises she made!  It wasn&#039;t long before she was moaning and writhing.  I started licking her clit like I was drinking water, tap-tap-tapping with my tongue.  I kept it up, purring, licking and sucking, careful of my teeth, until with a loud moan, she clamped her thighs around my head.  The pulse in the big arteries in her leg pounded in my ears.  She grabbed me behind the ears and held me still until the tremors and her heartbeat subsided.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She let me go, and rolled back onto all fours.  With a sultry look over her shoulder, she said,  “Take me, turn me, I’m yours!”  With a pounce I covered her.  I gently nipped her neck between my fangs, and dropped my hips to enter her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Aaaand,&#039;&#039; I missed. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pussy pussies are farther back than a woman&#039;s, just below the bung. It was kind of embarrassing. I was glad my fur covered my red face . Before I could try again, she reached back and grasped me by the cock.  After a few strokes with her hand, she said, “Where are your barbs?  I want to feel your spiky cock inside me.”   &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I didn&#039;t want to hurt you,” I said as I shifted the member in question.  She pulled me down and forward and guided me inside her.  Fuck! I thought.  She actually &#039;&#039;wants&#039;&#039; this?  Spikes and all?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I started pumping into her.  I had not had sex with a human woman since I was changed, so I was a bit worried that I&#039;d do it wrong.  I wanted it to feel good for her.  It must have; she was soon moaning again.  Or maybe it was her hypothetical cat fetish. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She moved with me, pushing back into my thrusts to take me fully inside herself, moaning with each one.  The loudness and pitch increased until she yelped and I felt her contracting around me.  That took me over the edge.  I gave her the fluids that would keep her safe from the wolves, and hopefully not wreck her life.  She collapsed onto the mattress with me on top of her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a minute.  I started the change back to human.  She felt my body shifting against her, and rolled over.  &amp;quot;Don&#039;t change,&amp;quot; she said.  &amp;quot;I like you like this.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Still inside her, I rolled us over onto our sides, with my body between her and the cold wall.  I pulled her close, nuzzled her ear and purred.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mmm. I&#039;m going to ask you to stop that. Sometime around three in the afternoon, I think.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Our presentation is at two,&amp;quot; I replied.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Fuck the presentation!&amp;quot; She said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I&#039;d rather fuck you again. Besides, how do you fuck a Powerpoint file?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, there was a knock on the door.  The bolts slid back, and as the door opened, I put my arm across Rowan&#039;s breasts and draped my tail over her privates.  Emily looked in and chuckled.  Surprisingly, she was fully human, and fully nude.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You&#039;re such a gentleman.  Anyway, now that that&#039;s done, you two can come upstairs and sleep in the guest room if you want.  It has a real bed, pillows, blankets, and all that.&amp;quot;  She looked at me and said, &amp;quot;Could you stay like that, so the pack can see you and smell you and know you really are a cougar?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We gathered our things.  Ro threw her dress over her head.  I hooked a thumb claw into the hole in the end of the zipper pull, and pulled it up for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The stairs of the old house were steep enough that Emily&#039;s butt was even with my nose.  A trail of wolfy lust musk wafted behind her.  Rowan probably couldn&#039;t smell it, but I could tell Em probably wanked to the sounds of our passion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Like what you see, tomcat?” Emily asked.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yeah, puppy,” I replied, “but I like this, better.”  I wrapped my arm around Rowan and pulled her close.  She laid her head on my shoulder and made a happy sound.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d have to tell Rowan about the different meaning of privacy among shapeshifters.  With our better hearing and smell, everyone knows who&#039;s doing who.  We really can&#039;t hide it.  Emily must have heard everything we did, and maybe even smelled it.  Shifter society only works if we can put aside our jealousies and feel happy for people that share each other&#039;s bodies.  Not all of us can.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first floor was littered with puppy piles.  Some were just cuddling.  Others smelled of sex.  Ro shuddered and buried her face in my shoulder.  Golden eyes followed us, well mostly me, to the front stairs.  Emily led us up the stairs to a back bedroom, motioned us in, and followed us in.  Moonlight flooded the room through the lace curtains to show a four-poster queen bed. Our bags had been brought in from Ro&#039;s car.  Emily opened the door on the left, and said &amp;quot;The bathroom is in here.  My bedroom shares it, so just knock if you need anything.  Otherwise, I&#039;ll see you two lovecats in the morning.&amp;quot;  She closed the door behind her and disappeared.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I awoke the next morning to fingers caressing my muzzle.  They smelled of pussy juice.  The hand retreated back under the covers, down my front and started massaging my sheath.  I lifted the blanket to see Ro smiling up at me.  Her touch and the scent caused blood to rush to my groin and engorge me.  As soon as my tip slipped out of its sheath, her lips surrounded it, kissing and sucking and licking me as it emerged.  When I filled her mouth, she stopped and straddled me.  She pressed the underside of me against her nethers and rocked her hips, rubbing her slit againstme.  Satisfied that she had lubed me enough, she lifted me up and slid me inside her silky moistness.  She leaned forward and kissed my snout.  “Good morning!  I thought this would be a nice way to start the day.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Mmm.  It is!”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Besides, I figured having more cougar juice inside me wouldn’t hurt.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“So, you’re okay with this?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“More than okay!  I have the man I’ve always wanted inside me, and … I’ve always wanted to know what it’s like to be a cat.”  She blushed and continued,  “When I breed my girls, I wish I knew what it feels like.  And now I do.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“No, you don’t.  Not really.  Not yet.  You’ve been fucked by a cat.  You haven’t fucked as a cat, yet.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“What’s different?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I can’t really describe it, and it may be  different for girls, but things feel different.  Emotionally, it’s more primal.  Sensually, too.  Your senses of smell and hearing will be sharper.  There’s nothing like the scent of your lover’s arousal working it’s way down into the depths of your brain, or hearing their pulse in their thighs when you go down on them, speeding up to urge you on and telling you it’s working.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Thanks for giving me something to look forward to&amp;gt;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Speaking f senses, you know what made that day really hard, when I asked you to stop?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;One of your girls was in heat.  She must have sat in your lap before you came to work. I really wanted to bend you over that table.  I had a friend with benefits at the time.  She&#039;s a  doctor.  I had to take a long lunch with her in her exam room.  Luckily, she had a cancellation.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Had?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yeah.  She has a girlfriend now that didn&#039;t want to share.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I&#039;d like to meet them.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You will.  Actually, Vashni should be your doctor now.  We woudn&#039;t want your current doctor to ask awkward questions.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Like what?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You&#039;re probably going to lose fat and gain muscle.  She may want to know how you did it.  Blood chemistry changes, too.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I guess I really should meet her them.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Rowan? Can I ask you something?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Sure!&amp;quot; she said, as she started rocking her hips.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I owe it to you to teach you how to be a were-cougar.  In the woods, in public, and ... in bed.&amp;quot;  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Okay. Sounds good so far.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I looked her in the eye.  &amp;quot;After that, though, would you want to try for something long term?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Love to!&amp;quot; she said, as she started grinding into my hips. &amp;quot;Now stop talking and let me fuck you!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mmmnhh!&amp;quot; was all I said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rowan and I downstairs to find Emily, and hopefully, John.  Following the scent of bacon, I led Ro into a dining room.  There was a big table that sat three across the short ends and six along the sides. Pack members, all in human form, filled most of the seats.  John was sitting at a corner, pushing some eggs around on his plate.  There was an empty seat between him and Emily. She saw us, and moved to get up. Ro said, &amp;quot;No, stay!&amp;quot;  She motioned me to take the seat, and slid into my lap.  She put a hand on John&#039;s shoulder and asked gently, &amp;quot;How are you doing with all this craziness?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He looked at us with haunted eyes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Suddenly, someone placed two platters of eggs and bacon in front of us. I said thanks to the motherly woman that had put them down. She looked at John and said, &amp;quot;Don&#039;t worry about your friend.  We&#039;ll take care of him.&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;This story has the same lead character as [[Cougar Town]] but I think it will stand alone.  It takes place about 15 years later.  It has adult content, some of it nonconsentual&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I hope Vivian won&#039;t be there.&amp;quot; John said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You know she will,&amp;quot; replied Rowan.  &amp;quot;The conference is in the same city as her office.  You need to tell her to either stop flirting with you, or date you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I tried that.  She just laughed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ro, John and I were in her Accord, driving from Syracuse, NY to Rochester for an engineering convention.  John, a tall, dark haired fellow, was in the passenger seat.  I was in the back, behind Rowan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We were going to represent our employer, Leightner McFarland Engineering, at the Engineer&#039;s Weel convention.  Rowan and I were presenting about the success of our village streetscape project.  I was the design engineer and responsible for the overall project.  Rowan had designed the sidewalks, landscaping, and drainage.  John headed another design team, and was going to talk to prospective clients.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian is LME&#039;s lead real estate lawyer.  John had to work with Vivian because his project involved extensive right-of-way purchases.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Vivian often flirts with John to the very limits of professional office behavior, and sometimes beyond.  As soon as he responds, though, she gets frigid.  It doesn&#039;t help that Vivian is a gorgeous redhead.  Anyone could see why John hated it.  Unlike most people, however, I can tell she has a serious case of the hots for him.  I can smell it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also know why she can&#039;t act on it.  You see, Vivian has a secret.  I can smell that, too.  She is a werewolf. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How can I smell it? I have a secret, too.  I&#039;m a were-cougar. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I can sympathize with Vivian to some extent.  Rowan flirted with me when she first joined the company.  It was hard for me.  Ro is a pretty brunette with blue eyes and fair skin, with intelligence and personality to match.  I wanted so much to ask her out, but I couldn&#039;t, and it wasn&#039;t because of the company&#039;s policy about dating subordinates.  I finally told her to stop.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well at least her hair makes her easy to spot,&amp;quot; Ro said.  &amp;quot;Don&#039;t worry.  Jake and I will run interference for you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, John&#039;s phone beeped.  John looked at it and said, &amp;quot;The Thruway is closed ahead.  Bad crash.  Waze says take the next exit.  It looks like we&#039;re taking the back roads.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well, crap!&amp;quot; Ro said.  &amp;quot;At least there will be a full moon tonight, so it&#039;ll be easier to see on the back roads.&amp;quot;  I was already feeling the tingle of energy from the moon.  Felines like me aren&#039;t as strongly tied to the moon as werewolves, but we still hear her call.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As we drove west through the upstate New York countryside, we were treated to a gorgeous sunset in front of us as the moon rose behind us.  Ro was enjoying it, pumping the clutch and flicking the Honda&#039;s shift lever from gear to gear to match the engine speed to the curves and hills.  She bought the Honda because it&#039;s one of the few sedans still available with a manual transmission.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We crested a hill and were greeted by the sight of an old farmhouse and barn across the valley, glowing in the light of the setting sun.  As we dropped down into the shadow of the valley, I caught a flicker of motion off to the right.  &amp;quot;Look out!&amp;quot; I yelled, just as a doe lept over the road.  The grey blur following it crashed into the front of the car, smashed the windshield, and disappeared over the roof.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rowan slammed the brake pedal hard. The ABS clattered like mad as the car slewed to a stop. We all got out.  John went to check the damage to the car, and Ro looked for whatever we hit.  As I opened my door, the scent hit me.  Werewolves!  &amp;quot;Get back in the car, NOW!&amp;quot; I yelled.  She looked at me, then behind me, and screamed.  Something slammed into the back of the head, and the world went red and black.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I came to with the throbbing head and nausea of a concussion.  I part-changed to cougar and back to heal the damage, then assessed the situation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first thing I noticed was a damp basement odor, overlayed with the scents of wolves. Lots of wolves. I was on a cold, grimy stone floor. The light of a bare bulb showed that we were in a cage in an old basement, probably the in the farmhouse we saw. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rowan was curled up in a ball in the corner, sobbing and rocking back and forth. She reeked with fear. She had a severe dog phobia. She was attacked by one as a kid, and they can still put her on the edge of panic. Werewolves would scare any normal human. To a cynophobe like her, they&#039;d be paralyzing. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Outside the bars were two male and two female werewolves. They were half-changed - still bipedal, but with fur and tails and fangs and thick blunt claws. A female with reddish fur had John pinned him to the floor. She seemed familiar somehow, but I couldn&#039;t quite place it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I knew what was coming next. Were-folk have a general rule about not letting normal humans know about our existence. Anyone that knows has to become one of us, for our safety and security. For wolf packs, though, it has the force of law. The question was how they would enforce it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The red wolf dug her claws into the front of John&#039;s chinos and rent the fabric into tatters.  The boxers beneath them got the same treatment. She lowered her muzzle inside the tear and applied her long supple tongue to his crotch. John started to resist, but a growl and the firm but careful application of her fangs put an end to that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was too late to help John. I resolved to do what I could for Rowan. I pulled her close and wrapped my arms around her. She buried her head into the crook of my neck, sobbing something about dogs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Having gotten the results she wanted, the red wolf straddled John&#039;s hips and took him as he watched in horror. She gyrated her hips, milking him with her pussy while applying her paw-hand to her clit. Small whimpers from her throat son became loud moans. Moans became shreaks as she came. John, against his will, came too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sighed, then turned to the other female. &amp;quot;Emily, the other male is yours. Then we&#039;ll take care of the female. Just then, the airflow pattern in the basement changed and carried the female&#039;s scent to my nose. I recognized it. Ishould have known.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Emily came into the cage to get me. I gently set Bran on the floor and took a fighting stance between her and the wolf. &amp;quot;I admire your courage,&amp;quot; she said, &amp;quot;but you can&#039;t win. No human can beat a werewolf. Come along, and I&#039;ll be gentle.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I snapped a kick to her ribcage. She slammed back into the bars, and before she could recover, I spun her around facing away from me, got her right arm into a half-nelson and wrapped my other hand around her throat, claws extended and buried in her fur. Her eyed bulged. &amp;quot;Shh.&amp;quot; I said. &amp;quot;I don&#039;t want to hurt you.&amp;quot; Then, more louldy, &amp;quot;Vivian!&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian was walking towards the stairs with John over her shoulder. She handed John off to one of the males, and told him to take John up to her room and keep him there. She walked up to the cage and asked, &amp;quot;How did you know it was me?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You have a distinctive scent.&amp;quot; I said. At her puzzled look, I smiled and continued. &amp;quot;Wolves aren&#039;t the only creatures in the forest, don&#039;t you know.&amp;quot; That just confused her more. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed, showing her my yellow-gold cougar eyes, snout and ears. Light brown fur covered my skin. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I had no idea there were shifters besides us wolves ... Well, you obviously won&#039;t be joining our pack, but I don&#039;t think we need to worry about you talking. Let Emily go and join us for dinner. We&#039;re having venison.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I shook my head. &amp;quot;Viv, about Rowan. She&#039;s no good to you. She&#039;s phobic. Can&#039;t you smell it? Can&#039;t you hear her? Do you really want a pack member that goes batshit crazy every full moon? Let me change her. She&#039;ll be better off as a cougar. Heck, she loves cats. She breeds them. You&#039;ll be better off with her as a sane cougar than a crazy wolf&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The remaining male growled, &amp;quot;It&#039;s the law. She must join...&amp;quot; He fell silent at Vivian&#039;s gesture.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sighed. &amp;quot;Well, the alphas won&#039;t like it, but you&#039;re probably right. But if she&#039;s still human in the morning, neither of you are leaving this cage.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I let Emily go with an apology, and said to Vivian, &amp;quot;Do you have any place with bit more privacy, and less grime?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian nodded. &amp;quot;Emily, put them in the safe room, please. Oh, and for letting him get the drop on you, you won&#039;t be joining tonight&#039;s pack run. Instead, you&#039;ll guard the door and make sure she&#039;s changed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I picked up Ro and followed Emily to a door across the basement. She opened it and said, &amp;quot;You can stay in here. It&#039;s still a cell, but at least it has a real floor and a bed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She opened the door and motioned us in. &lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The thick, iron-bound oaken door slammed shut behind us, and several heavy steel bolts slide home. Enough moonlight came through a heavily barred window near the ceiling of the far wall to see the inside of the door was covered with gouges and claw marks. Some had bloodstains. The irony of the name didn&#039;t escape me. This safe room wasn&#039;t a refuge in a home invasion or tornado. They lock up deranged wolves to keep the rest of the pack safe. The kind Rowan would likely become if I failed. I shuddered at the thought. If the pack took her, she&#039;d probably spend all her full moons in here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I set Rowan down on the stained, ragged mattress in the corner. It wasn&#039;t really a bed, but it was better than the cold stone floor. I sat next to her and pulled her onto my lap. She was still in the grips of her panic attack, rocking back and forth muttering &amp;quot;Dogs will kill me!&amp;quot; over and over.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Long ago, I swore an oath to myself that I&#039;d never change anyone without their consent, as I was. She couldn&#039;t consent during a panic attack, but could I let a wolf rape her? Would raping her myself be the lesser evil? I hoped I wouldn&#039;t have to make that choice. I had to get her calmed down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I realized what to do. Her cats were her babies. What&#039;s more calming than a purring kitty? I held her close and purred softly. It seemed to help, so I increased the volume.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It took a while, but it worked. The patch of moonlight from the window had moved down the door to the floor before she finally calmed. She sat up, looked around, and said in a panicky voice, &amp;quot;Are the dogs gone? Where are we? Where&#039;s John?&amp;quot; And then, &amp;quot;Did you hear a cat?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I pulled her close, kissed her forehead gently, and said, &amp;quot;It&#039;s okay. Well, it&#039;s far from okay, but it could be worse.&amp;quot; I took a breath. &amp;quot;Rowan, we&#039;re being held prisoner. By werewolves.&amp;quot; She made a skeptical noise. &amp;quot;Yes, they are real. Very, very real. John is on his way to becoming one of them.&amp;quot; I paused for a breath. &amp;quot;I couldn&#039;t save him, but I made a deal with them for you. The bad news is, you&#039;re not leaving this room as a human. The good news is you don&#039;t have to become a wolf. You have a choice. Let me change you, or they will, probably by force like they did to John&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Change me into what?&amp;quot; Her voice was skeptical.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Were-cougar, Or puma if you prefer.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;So, you&#039;re telling me we&#039;re captives of mythical creatures, you&#039;re a different mythical creature, and I have to choose between you and them.&amp;quot; Her tone was sarcastic and unbelieving. &amp;quot;You expect me to believe that if you bite me, I&#039;ll magically turn into a cougar? Extraordinary claims require...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Extraordinary proof, I know. I&#039;ll get to that in a minute. I&#039;d rather not bite you. That&#039;s uncivilized. Other bodily fluids work just as well. And as for proof...&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I took her hand and pulled it, palm up, into the moonlight. I let go, and placed my hand in hers, palm up. A moment&#039;s concentration, and my fingernails lengthened into sharp, hooked claws. Tough but supple pads formed under my knuckles and the middle joint of my fingers. Tawny fur covered the rest and up into my sleeve. With a quick indrawn breath, she caressed my fur, prodded my pads, and gently ran fingertips over the points of my claws. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Is this real,&amp;quot; she asked. &amp;quot;Am I dreaming? Drugged?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I kicked off my shoes, pulled off my socks and stood in the moonlight from the window. I faced her and unbuttoned my shirt, took it off and dropped it on the mattress. I could tell she liked what she saw. I&#039;m not muscle-bound by any means, but I am fit and toned. After unbuckling my belt and opening my fly, I hooked my thumbs over the waistbands of my pants and briefs and pushed them down to my ankles, changing as I did. I pulled my hind paws out of my pants and padded over to her on all fours. Her astonishment was plain on her face. I head-butted her a few times, then touched my muzzle to her nose.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Smiling with amazement, she reached up and tentatively touched my long whiskers, then the fur on my cheek. &amp;quot;Oh. My. God,&amp;quot; she said. &amp;quot;You&#039;re real! You&#039;re effin&#039; real! She started scratching behind my ears with both hands. I couldn&#039;t help myself. I started purring. It&#039;s is the best part of being one of the lesser cats. Lions, tigers, jaguars and leopards get the press, but they can&#039;t purr. We can&#039;t roar, but a snarl is almost as good, and purring is more fun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ro laughed out loud with delight.  &amp;quot;That was you!&amp;quot; she exclaimed.  I had the wrong mouth shape to talk now, so I nodded yes.  &amp;quot;So, I&#039;ll be able to change and purr and all this, too?&amp;quot;  I nodded yes again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Tell me, Jake, what kind of bodily fluids were you talking about?  Blood?  Earwax?&amp;quot;  I looked pointedly at her crotch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh, &#039;&#039;reeeally&#039;&#039;?&amp;quot; She said as she stood.  &amp;quot;It&#039;s my turn.&amp;quot; She pulled the barrettes from her dark hair, letting it spill down her back.  She unzipped her dress and slowly let it drop to the ground.  Her bra soon followed, and she stood in front of me wearing just panties, thigh-highs, and kitten-heeled boots.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Had I been in human form, my cock would be standing at attention at that.  Sadly, the sight of a naked human, however attractive, just didn&#039;t do it for my cat brain.  She started caressing me, starting at my head, and working her way back to my tail.  It felt good, but wasn&#039;t arousing. She reached around my rump and caressed my sheath.  &amp;quot;No?  Huh.  Oh, I think I know how to get him to come out and play.&amp;quot;  She pulled her panties down and kicked them off.  The scent of her nethers tickled my nose. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I dropped my jaw a little and pulled up my upper lip, so her scent could reach the special scent receptors in the roof of my mouth.  Yes, she was damp.  Wet, even.  Doing it with a cougar was a turn on for her?  If that was her kink, I was the luckiest cat in the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She cupped her pussy with one hand, then pushed two fingers inside herself.  She reached out and rubbed her damp fingers on my muzzle.  The smell was intoxicating.  Blood rushed to my crotch and I was fully engorged almost instantly.  Although I was in cat form, I kept my cock mostly human for two reasons.  To be honest, we felines just aren&#039;t well hung.  Even lions are lacking in the package.  Second, I didn&#039;t want to hurt her.  We have barbed, spiky penises.  I wanted to please her, not leave her a bloody mess down there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She turned and knelt on the mattress with her back to me, then dropped to all fours. With a come-hither look over her shoulder, she spread her knees apart, fully exposing that wonderfully-scented moistness. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My feline brain wanted to jump her, but I paused. I was genuinely fond of this woman.  I didn&#039;t want to fuck her.  Well, I did, but I wanted to make love to her.  I mean, I may be an animal, but I&#039;m not an &#039;&#039;animal.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I moved up alongside her, licked her on the nose, then shoved my shoulder into hers.  She yelped and rolled onto her back.  I stepped over her and licked her nose again.  I rubbed my cheeks against hers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Scent making me, claiming me as yours?&amp;quot; she asked.  I nodded yes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I took a few steps back and gently licked her breast, starting on the outside and working to her nipple.  By the time I got to he aureole, she was hard.  I gently sucked her nipple into my mouth around it, pressed my tongue against it, and purred.  She yelped, so I did it again on the other side.  I had lost the element of surprise, but the noises told me it was working. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 Next, I started licking down her stomach. I pushed my snout between her legs. She giggled as my whiskers brushed the inside of her thighs. &amp;quot;Stop that! It tickles!&amp;quot; I didn&#039;t stop. Instead, I licked her folds softly, afraid my rough tongue might be too abrasive. I gently worked my tongue inside her, then upwards until I felt her button. I took a deep breath, and let it out with a purr. Yeah that worked. I did it again. That worked really well! It wasn&#039;t long before she was moaning and writhing. I started licking her clit like I was drinking water, tap-tap-tapping with my tongue. I kept it up, purring, licking and sucking, careful of my teeth, until moaning, she clamped her thighs around my head. She grabbed me behind the ears and held me still until the tremors subsided.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She let me go, and rolled back onto all fours. With a pounce I covered her. I gently nipped her neck between my fangs, and dropped my hips to take her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Aaaand,&#039;&#039; I missed. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pussy pussies are farther back than a woman&#039;s, just below the bung. It was kind of embarrassing. I was glad my fur covered my embarrassment. Before I could try again, she reached back and grasped me by the cock. After a few strokes with her hand, she pulled me down and forward and guided me inside her. Fuck! I thought. She actually &#039;&#039;wants&#039;&#039; this?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I started pumping into her. I had not had sex with a human woman since I was changed, so I was a bit worried that I&#039;d do it wrong. I wanted it to feel good for her. I must have been doing something right, she was soon moaning again. Or maybe it was her hypothetical cat fetish. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She moved with me, pushing back into my thrusts to take me fully inside herself, moaning with each one. The loudness and pitch increased until she yelped and I felt her contracting around me. That took me over the edge. I gave her the fluids that would keep her safe from the wolves, and hopefully not wreck her life. She collapsed onto the mattress with me on top of her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a minute. I started the change back to human. She felt my body shifting against her, and rolled over. &amp;quot;Don&#039;t change,&amp;quot; She said. &amp;quot;I like you like this.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed. I was still furred and clawed and snouted, but I could speak and wrap my arms around her. I rolled us over onto our sides, with my body between her and the cold wall. &amp;quot;Will this do? This way we can talk and cuddle.&amp;quot; I pulled her close, nuzzled her ear and purred.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mmm. I&#039;m going to have ask you to stop that. Sometime around three in the afternoon, I think.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Our presentation is at two,&amp;quot; I replied.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Fuck the presentation!&amp;quot; She said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I&#039;d rather fuck you again. Besides, how do you fuck a Powerpoint file?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, there was a knock on the door. The bolts slid back, and as the door opened, I put an arm across Rowan&#039;s breasts and draped my tail over her privates. Emily looked in and chuckled. Surprisingly, she was fully human, and fully nude.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You&#039;re such a gentleman. Anyway, now that that&#039;s done, you two can come upstairs and sleep in the guest room if you want. It has a real bed, pillows, blankets, and all that.&amp;quot; She looked at me and said, &amp;quot;Could you stay like that, so the pack can see you and smell you and know you really are a cougar?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We gathered our things. Ro threw her dress over her head. I hooked a thumb claw into the hole in the end of the zipper pull, and pulled it up for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The stairs of the old house were steep enough that Emily&#039;s butt was even with my nose. A trail of wolfy lust musk wafted behind her. Rowan probably couldn&#039;t smell it, but I could tell Em probably wanked to the sounds of our passion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d have to tell Rowan about the different meaning of privacy among shapeshifters. With our better hearing and smell, everyone knows who&#039;s doing who. We really can&#039;t hide it. Emily must have heard everything we did, and maybe even smelled it. Shifter society only works if we can put aside our jealousies and feel happy for people that share each other&#039;s bodies. Not all of us can.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first floor was littered with puppy piles. Some were just cuddling. Others smelled of sex. Gold eyes followed us, well mostly me, to the front stairs. Emily lead us up the stairs to a back bedroom, motioned us in, and said good night. Moonlight flooded the room through the lace curtains to show a four-poster queen bed. Our bags had been brought in from Ro&#039;s car.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
No matter how many times I checked my math, the answer came out the same. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I had flunked my Calculus II mid-term exam so badly that, even if I got straight 100s for the rest of the semester, my final grade would be too low to keep my scholarship. Without it, there was no way my family could pay my tuition at a private liberal arts college like Murchison U.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My roommate Scott heard me groan, and asked what was wrong. I explained, and he let out a low whistle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;That’s a serious bummer!” he said. “What are you going to do?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Transfer to UT or A&amp;amp;M, I guess.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Damn. You‘ve been a good roommate.” He went back to studying, then a few minutes later said, “You need a cougar.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A what?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A cougar. A rich woman to pay your bills. The female equivalent of a sugar daddy.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Oh, stop it!&amp;quot; I yelled, &amp;quot;You want me to prostitute myself to pay for college? That&#039;s just wrong! And besides, how the heck could I attract a woman like that?” I was after all, a scrawny, somewhat nerdy engineering major.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He just smiled and went back to his studying, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A few days later, he flashed me a big grin and showed me an ad on Craigslist. “Cougar wanted,” it said. “Nice but shy SWM, NS, college student seeks sugar mommy for …” I didn’t bother reading the rest. &amp;quot;Come one!” I said. “Did you do that?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yep! And you have a response already!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It took him a few days to convince me to let him reply for me. The next day, he told me that I had a lunch date Saturday at a Riverwalk café. I almost didn’t go, but I figured, what did I have to lose? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that is how I met Ashley. I was wearing my best jeans, a halfway decent button-down shirt, and a tie. I was a few minutes late. I’d like to say it was because I missed a bus connection, but it was mostly because I had trouble getting the knot in my tie right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Years ago, the City of San Antonio made plans to bury the San Antonio River through downtown. A group of insightful women saw that it could be more and convinced the city to do otherwise. Now it is an entertainment district one level below the street. The river has walkways on both sides, lined with restaurants, bars and shops.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked down the steps from the street and saw a slender woman sitting at a table set for two. Her back was to me, so my first impression was tawny blond hair gathered in a silver clip at neck level, and hanging about halfway down the back of her white silk blouse. She was wearing a denim skirt just barely too short and tight for modesty, and cowboy boots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked up to the table, and she smiled up at me. “Are you Jake?” she asked. Her eyes matched her turquoise pendant. She was somewhere in her mid-thirties, and very attractive, but not quite gorgeous. That was a relief. I always get awkward and tongue-tied around beautiful women. “Yes, ma’am,” I replied. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Then, have a seat. And lose the tie,” she said. “And don’t call me ma’am.” To be honest, I was glad she told me to take the tie off. I hated wearing ties. To me, they are like inverted nooses. Also, it was getting rather warm in the sun. We spent a while in small talk until the waiter came over. She ordered for me, something Italian sounding and a glass of wine. I started to say that I was under 21, but she silenced me with a look. The waiter certainly looked like he wasn’t going to ask any questions. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The meal was delicious. It was a mixture of fresh vegetables, pasta and steak in a red sauce. Not a jar sauce you’d buy down in the HEB supermarket, but a sauce made from freshly diced tomatoes, herbs and spices, and red wine. We chatted some more while finishing out meals. After the waiter cleared the plates, her demeanor changed. Suddenly all business, she asked, “So, Jake, what do you want from me?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Instantly, a cat got my tongue. I had no idea what to say. Eventually, I managed to tell her the story about failing my Calc mid-term, losing my scholarship and my roommate’s solution. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“So, you’re looking for someone to pay your way through college,” she said. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I don’t know what I’m looking for, ma’am. It‘s just that I like Murch U. I want to finish my degree there, and I don‘t know how to pay for it. When Scott said he had set up the date with you, I figured I could always say no if I felt uncomfortable about it. At worst, I would be out an afternoon and the price of lunch.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“What’s Scott’s phone number?” she asked, pulling a high-end smartphone from her purse. I told her, and she called him. First, she verified that Scott had indeed placed the Craigslist ad and set me up. Then, she asked all sorts of questions about me like she was checking a job candidate’s references. She thanked Scott, put her phone in her purse, then looked at me for several long, awkward minutes. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m actually a Murch alumna, class of ‘99, so I understand why you’d want to stay. I like you, Jake. I’ll tell you what. You’re tuition is paid through the end of the semester, right? Let’s consider that your probation. If we get along, you work hard for me, and you pull up your Calc grade as best you can, I’ll think about sponsoring you for the fall semester. In return, you&#039;ll work part time as my personal assistant. If it doesn‘t work out, well, I know someone in the Admissions Office at A&amp;amp;M.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, that is how it started. A few afternoons each week, I helped her with her real estate business. I set up A/V and computer equipment at her business meetings, did internet research, ran errands for her, and was her general all-around gofer. Occasionally, I provided company for dinner, but the one thing I was both hoping for and afraid of never happened. She never came on to me. In fact, she only touched me a handful of times, never flirted and rarely even joked about sex. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She called me into her office after finals were over. She said, “You know, you’ve been a big help. I would have lost my shirt on the Boerne property if you hadn&#039;t spotted that structural problem. I hear the city just condemned it. Also, I talked to Dr. Drake, and he said you managed to pull off a B-. He was impressed, given your midterm grade. So, you fulfilled your part of our bargain. Now, whatever you decide about college, I’d like to keep you on. Do you still want to go to Murch next year?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I nodded my head yes. “Good” She put a piece of paper in front of me. “This is a contract. It says that I will pay your tuition for the fall semester. In return, you agree to work as my personal assistant. You will also maintain a B average, and add a minor in business administration to your engineering classes. After graduation, you&#039;ll make donations to Murch&#039;s financial aid endowment. If you do not satisfy these terms, you will repay me. Is that acceptable?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Um, do you have a pen I could use?” I signed the contract, and she signed her name beside mine. Then, she pulled out an envelope and handed it to me. Inside was a check for the fall semester’s tuition, minus the financial aid I had managed to keep. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You’ll still be responsible for room, board and fees,” she said. I wasn’t about to complain. “Now, two more things. If you are going to be my assistant next year, you’ll need more reliable transportation than the bus or your bike.” She handed me another envelope. Inside it were the keys, title, registration and insurance for an older Civic. “Consider it your bonus for stopping me from buying that building. I assume you can drive a manual? No? Well then, I’ll just have to teach you!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh, wow! Thanks!&amp;quot; I spluttered, at a loss for any better words.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;And the other thing. A friend of mine works for Moody and Baker Engineering. On my recommendation, he&#039;s agreed to give you an internship this summer. You&#039;ll work for them half time, and half time for me. You can stay in my guest room. Interested?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
I spent a few weeks at home before returning to San Antonio for the summer.  My parents were exfremely unhappy about all this. They thought Ashley was using me for something. They didn&#039;t know what, but they didn&#039;t trust her motives. They also didn’t like the fact that I would be living with an older woman. It didn&#039;t matter that I said we&#039;d never had sex. In the end, though, I convinced them that a deal was a deal, and I couldn’t back out. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monday through Wednesday, I&#039;d get up, we&#039;d have breakfast together, and I&#039;d drive the Civic to M&amp;amp;B. I learned a lot about what engineering is really like. While the calculations I was learning at school are a part, it&#039;s really about solving the clients&#039; problems, within their budget, site constraints and building codes. That and documenting everything you do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wednesday afternoons, Thursdays and Fridays were spent as Ashley&#039;s gofer and A/V squad. I&#039;d also occasionally be her date for business dinners and other social functions. She taught me a lot that I would never have learned at the university: how to read people, how to read a contract, how to cook, how to choose a good wine, how to dress well. It was quite an education. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also helped out at her ranch in the Texas Hill Country, clearing brush or restoring the old stone ranchhouse. She was trying to exterminate invasive salt cedar from her property, and it was a lot of hard work. One day, I looked down at some ground still damp from last nights thunderstorms, and saw what appeared to be a big cat track. She said it was a bobcat. I wasn’t so sure. It was huge. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I stopped at an Army/Navy store the next day and bought a Ka-Bar. I knew I wouldn’t need it for a bobcat, and it wouldn’t help against a puma. Still, carrying it made me feel better when we were clearing brush. It made her laugh. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In early June, my parents came up for a weekend to meet Ashley. She must have made a good impression, because their disapproval faded after that. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As I got to know her, I occasionally caught glimpses behind the facade she showed the    world. She wasn&#039;t the strong, self-sufficient businesswoman she liked people to think she was. Every once in a while, she&#039;d see a happy couple, and a lonely, wistful look would come over her face for just an instant. Once in a great while, she&#039;d start flirt with me, stop suddenly and deny it ever happened.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that’s how I ended up at her ranch one night in mid June. After a wonderful dinner that we had cooked together, and more wine than I was used to, she started flirting with me. I expected her to stop like always, but she didn&#039;t. I suppose the wine also helped, but the next thing I knew, I was flat on my back on her four-post bed, buck naked. The old floor-to-ceiling doors were open, and the curtains fluttered in the warm evening breeze. She was kneeling over me, naked and half-illuminated by the light of the full moon, saying, “Do you trust me?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yes,“ I said. Get a 20 year guy old somewhat drunk and very hot and bothered, and he’ll say yes to just about anything a good looking woman asks. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She took my wrists and stretched my hands up over my head and pinned them there.  She then straddled my thighs and wrapped one hand around my cock. “Comfy?” she asked as she kneaded with her strong fingers. I was too distracted to reply with anything but a low moan. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She dug her nails into the tender skin along the underside of my cock. I gasped. I was about to complain, but it felt incredible. She raised herself up onto her knees, shifted a bit, then impaled herself on me. She was hot, wet and tight. Hotter and tighter than anyone I had ever been with before. Not that I was very experienced. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I moaned again and closed my eyes. She lifted up again, and something sharp dragged against the top of my cock as she did so. I instantly sat up, or would have if my arms hadn’t been pinned down. She was way stronger than she looked. “What the fuck!” I yelled as I looked down. Two thin scratches ran the length of my cock, with beads of blood forming. “Why the heck did you do that? Let me go!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m afraid I can’t, Jake. Not anymore. If I did, I’d have to kill you. And I like you too much to do that.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sank back down, and her vaginal wetness stung in the scratches. “You see, Jake,” she said as she leaned forward, the candles on the nightstands shining on her face, “I’m not exactly human, and soon you won’t be either.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As she said this, her irises changed from blue to gold, and expanded so no white was showing. Changes progressed outwards from there. Her eyelids turned black, and the outer corners shifted upwards. Her nose grew broader, then longer as her upper lip became fleshier and her jaws extended. Her ears became thin, pointed, and migrated back and up. She sat up again, and her breasts shrank until they were mostly nipple. Two rows of dark spots appeared below them, then grew into additional nipples. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sat there for a moment, with her free hand resting on my belly. Each finger ended in a sharp, hooked claw. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m a shape shifter, a were-cougar. And now you will be too. It’s transmitted by bodily fluids. I could have bitten you, but I thought this would be more … fun. With my vashinal wetnesh in your bloodshtream, you will be a were-cougar, thoo!” She smiled, showing off long fangs and sharp incisors.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know, I wash thinking abouth thath Craigthlith ad.” Her diction was becoming slurred as her mouth became more and more catlike. “You really shoulth be carefull whath you athk for, jutht in cathe you geth ith!” By this time, her body was covered in pale brown fur, and her internal temperature became even hotter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My mind was torn between horny and horror. I wanted to throw her off me and run. I wanted her to keep fucking me. I didn’t want to come and release the only control I had left. I couldn’t wait until I did. I was on the edge of panic when I finally orgasmed, my cock pulsing and throbbing inside what was now almost entirely a cougar. Only a few faint vestiges of humanity were still visible - fingers on her front paws, and a deeper brainpan than normal for a feline. She lay down on me and pushed her nose into my face. Her tail flicked between my ankles. Her whiskers tickled as she rubbed her cheeks on mine. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Scent marking me, claiming me as yours? I asked. She lifted her head, and nodded. All of a sudden, I had to laugh. She tilted her head as if to ask, “What?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I just came in a pussy pussy!” She crinkled her nose at me, and proceeded to lick my face with her very rough tongue. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The next morning, I woke up with my cock in something hot, wet and vibrating. It took me a minute to realize what was going on - the most incredible blowjob I’d ever gotten. She was purring! Between that and the incredible things her rough but supple tongue did to me, I quickly exploded into her mouth. She cleaned me off with her tongue, then licked her lips.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“There is a serious advantage to being one of the smaller cats,” she said. “Lions, tigers and leopards get all the press, but they can’t give purr jobs! Come on, breakfast is ready. Let’s eat while I explain.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Breakfast was delicious, as usual. As we ate, she told me that she had been an ROTC cadet until she was diagnosed with advanced hepatitis during her sophomore year. This was when it was still difficult to treat.  She lost her ROTC scholarship, and would have had to withdraw from Murch if one of her doctors hadn&#039;t taken her under his wing. Soon after, she let him seduce her, only to find herself being forced by a cougar. He was apologetic after, and taught her how to control her inner beast, but she never again let her guard down around him. Until the previous night, had restricted herself to a few one-night stands with other were-folk. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know,” she said, “I wasn’t joking last night. When I said I’d have to kill you. It’s one of the few laws all weres have in common. Anyone who knows we exist must become one of us, or die. Had I let you go, the local werewolf pack would hunt us down. They&#039;d kill me, and rape you, making you one of them.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She stopped spreading jam on her toast and put it down. “I’m sorry, Jake, truly I am. It’s just that I’ve been so alone. I can’t undo what I did to you last night. I wish I could have given you a choice.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I didn’t know what to say, so I said nothing.  I wasn’t yet sure how I felt about what she had done to me, but I still cared for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She continued, “What Dr. Hennessey did to me felt like I had been raped. Yes, the sex was completely consensual, but what came with it… was very much like a rape. And now, I&#039;ve done the same thing to you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;And on top of that, I changed you because I was tired of being human all the time.  I like being the cougar.  It&#039;s how I decompress after a hard day.  I could have found you a summer sublet to stay in, but instead I brought you out here with me.  I should have known the full moon would weken my self control.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I feel so guilty.  For ultimately selfish reasons, I condemned you to the same lonely life I&#039;m stuck with.  Can you forgive me?&amp;quot;  She looked so miserable, so apologetic, that I took her in my arms, and kissed her tears away.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then something she had said clicked.  “You had unprotected sex with me, and you have hepatitis?”  I almost screamed it at her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She laughed at me.  That made me even madder.  She actually laughed at me. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I turned you into a fucking werecat, and you’re worried about hepatitis?”  She continued more quietly.  “Jake, The virus can’t survive in a feline body.  That why Dr. Hennessey did it - to cure me. What&#039;s more,  most cougar diseases can’t survive in humans.  About the only thing we have to worry about are rabies and toxoplasmosis.  Avoid rabid animals, don‘t eat rats and wash your hands after changing a litter box, and you don‘t really have to worry about infectious disease at all.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We went our separate ways to work: me to my internship, her to her office.  I returned that evening&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the next several weeks like that. She’d wake me with a blowjob or sex, we’d go off to work, then come home for more. In between, she told me what to expect on the next night of the full moon. Eventually, she said, I’d be able to control it and change at will regardless of the moon phase, but for the next six months or so, I should plan on spending full moon nights at the ranch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During that time, I felt something strange building within me. Some sort of tension, or static electric energy. It felt like every nerve I had was buzzing with fear or with anticipation, I couldn’t tell which. Probably both. She enrolled me in meditation and tai chi lessons, and that was the only thing that really eased the itch. Well, that and sex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The morning of the full moon, I woke up before she did for a change. I was near bursting with the tension within me. I figured it was time to pay her back for all the wakeup calls she had given me. I slowly spread Ashley’s legs apart, then kissed the slit between them, at first gently, then with more and more pressure as her labia swelled and dampened. I licked and sucked and prodded with my tongue until I felt her spasm. Before the last wave crested, I flipped her on to her stomach, then took her from behind. Before long, she came again with me inside her. It felt so good that I followed shortly thereafter. I collapsed on top of her as we basked in the orgasm afterglow. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She lifted herself up on one elbow to look over her shoulder at me, smiled, and kissed me. Then she reached over to her handbag and pulled out a compact. She opened it up and held it so I could see myself in the mirror. My brown eyes had lightened to cougar gold. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I called in sick to my internship, and we spent most of the day clearing salt cedar. By the end of the day, I felt like I was holding a live wire or something. My whole body was buzzing with energy. I heard a flutter behind me, and by reflex turned to look. My eye was immediately caught by the motion of a sparrow flying overhead. After it passed, I smelled its scent wafting down. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All day, I was being distracted by the local wildlife. All the time I had helped her on her ranch, I had never noticed how much of it there was. Now, every rustle, every scent on the breeze, every glimpse of motion caught my attention. Late in the afternoon, we spooked a rabbit, and I almost started chasing it. Ashley laughed, put her arms around me and said “I’ve done that, too. Come on, it’s almost time.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the sun getting low in the sky, she led me to a secluded clearing overlooking the creek. We undressed each other, then sat down to watch the sunset. It made everything glow, including her body. Her scent filled my nostrils. I reached for her. She put her arms around me, gave me a hug, and said, “Not now. Later, I promise.” She was still holding me as the nervous tension inside me crescendoed. I looked behind us, and saw the moon rising over the hill. “It’s okay, baby. I’m here with you. I’ll be with you.” She kept murmuring reassurances in my ear as the tension became unbearable.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It started in my groin where she had - is infected the right word? - well, infected me. My cock and balls retreated backwards between my legs. My cock was slowly being enveloped by a sheath. As I watched, the tip disappeared inside it. I felt pressure inside my fingertips. My nails grew thicker and longer and hooked into wickedly sharp claws. Then I felt the same thing in my toes. My toenails became claws, then my toes bent upwards as my foot bones lengthened. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My canine teeth expanded in girth and length. I ran my tongue over my new fangs. The pressure grew to fill my lower face. I felt my jaws extending forward, pushed out by the pressure within. My nose broadened and suddenly, I was overwhelmed by the scents surrounding me. I focused on Ashley’s scent. Her odor, her words whispered in my ears, her arms around me kept me grounded, sane, as my ears were dragged backwards and upwards through my skull. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It’s hard to describe what happened after that. It’s not that I don’t remember what happened. I can’t find the words to describe it. My best guess is, as the changes penetrated into my brain, I lost the use of language. Ashley’s murmured reassurances became a soft buzz. This scared me more than anything else had. Was I losing my identity, the memories and skills and experiences that made me who I am? Until then, I could think of myself as a human in a cougar body. Now I was losing that, too,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The pressure increased and the changes to my arms, leg and head progressed. Finally, with a sensation somewhere between a full-body toothache and a mind-blowing, toe-curling orgasm, the rest of my body followed. I was a cougar.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You know the feeling of release when the last item of clothing comes off, and you&#039;re finally fully naked for the first time with a new lover? That&#039;s what it felt like. I felt free. Unfettered.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I tried to run, but my four legs betrayed me. I couldn’t coordinate them, and fell painfully on my snout. Ashley let me go, and got down on her hands and knees. She shifted into a cougar herself. It was the first time I got to watch her shift since that night weeks before. I had been a bit distracted then. I was amazed by how fluid it looked, compared to how my change felt. After I regained my feet, she led me into the bushes. I stumbled at first, but soon walking on four legs seemed natural. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the night prowling her ranch. She taught me how to walk, run, pounce, and climb on four legs instead of two, how to use night vision, smell and hearing to navigate instead of stumbling around in the dark. Towards dawn, she brought down a yearling buck, and I tasted hot blood for the first time. It was wonderful. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then she led me back to the clearing by the creek where we had first changed. We made love in the dawn sunlight as we regained our humanity. Along with everything else that summer, she taught me how to be a cougar and a man, without losing my identity in the cougar mind.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
No matter how many times I checked my math, the answer came out the same. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I had flunked my Calculus II mid-term exam so badly that, even if I got straight 100s for the rest of the semester, my final grade would be too low to keep my scholarship. Without it, there was no way my family could pay my tuition at a private liberal arts college like Murchison U.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My roommate Scott heard me groan, and asked what was wrong. I explained, and he let out a low whistle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;That’s a serious bummer!” he said. “What are you going to do?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Transfer to UT or A&amp;amp;M, I guess.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Damn. You‘ve been a good roommate.” He went back to studying, then a few minutes later said, “You need a cougar.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A what?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A cougar. A rich woman to pay your bills. The female equivalent of a sugar daddy.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Oh, stop it!&amp;quot; I yelled, &amp;quot;You want me to prostitute myself to pay for college? That&#039;s just wrong! And besides, how the heck could I attract a woman like that?” I was after all, a scrawny, somewhat nerdy engineering major.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He just smiled and went back to his studying, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A few days later, he flashed me a big grin and showed me an ad on Craigslist. “Cougar wanted,” it said. “Nice but shy SWM, NS, college student seeks sugar mommy for …” I didn’t bother reading the rest. &amp;quot;Come one!” I said. “Did you do that?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yep! And you have a response already!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It took him a few days to convince me to let him reply for me. The next day, he told me that I had a lunch date Saturday at a Riverwalk café. I almost didn’t go, but I figured, what did I have to lose? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that is how I met Ashley. I was wearing my best jeans, a halfway decent button-down shirt, and a tie. I was a few minutes late. I’d like to say it was because I missed a bus connection, but it was mostly because I had trouble getting the knot in my tie right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Years ago, the City of San Antonio made plans to bury the San Antonio River through downtown. A group of insightful women saw that it could be more and convinced the city to do otherwise. Now it is an entertainment district one level below the street. The river has walkways on both sides, lined with restaurants, bars and shops.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked down the steps from the street and saw a slender woman sitting at a table set for two. Her back was to me, so my first impression was tawny blond hair gathered in a silver clip at neck level, and hanging about halfway down the back of her white silk blouse. She was wearing a denim skirt just barely too short and tight for modesty, and cowboy boots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked up to the table, and she smiled up at me. “Are you Jake?” she asked. Her eyes matched her turquoise pendant. She was somewhere in her mid-thirties, and very attractive, but not quite gorgeous. That was a relief. I always get awkward and tongue-tied around beautiful women. “Yes, ma’am,” I replied. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Then, have a seat. And lose the tie,” she said. “And don’t call me ma’am.” To be honest, I was glad she told me to take the tie off. I hated wearing ties. To me, they are like inverted nooses. Also, it was getting rather warm in the sun. We spent a while in small talk until the waiter came over. She ordered for me, something Italian sounding and a glass of wine. I started to say that I was under 21, but she silenced me with a look. The waiter certainly looked like he wasn’t going to ask any questions. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The meal was delicious. It was a mixture of fresh vegetables, pasta and steak in a red sauce. Not a jar sauce you’d buy down in the HEB supermarket, but a sauce made from freshly diced tomatoes, herbs and spices, and red wine. We chatted some more while finishing out meals. After the waiter cleared the plates, her demeanor changed. Suddenly all business, she asked, “So, Jake, what do you want from me?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Instantly, a cat got my tongue. I had no idea what to say. Eventually, I managed to tell her the story about failing my Calc mid-term, losing my scholarship and my roommate’s solution. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“So, you’re looking for someone to pay your way through college,” she said. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I don’t know what I’m looking for, ma’am. It‘s just that I like Murch U. I want to finish my degree there, and I don‘t know how to pay for it. When Scott said he had set up the date with you, I figured I could always say no if I felt uncomfortable about it. At worst, I would be out an afternoon and the price of lunch.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“What’s Scott’s phone number?” she asked, pulling a high-end smartphone from her purse. I told her, and she called him. First, she verified that Scott had indeed placed the Craigslist ad and set me up. Then, she asked all sorts of questions about me like she was checking a job candidate’s references. She thanked Scott, put her phone in her purse, then looked at me for several long, awkward minutes. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m actually a Murch alumna, class of ‘99, so I understand why you’d want to stay. I like you, Jake. I’ll tell you what. You’re tuition is paid through the end of the semester, right? Let’s consider that your probation. If we get along, you work hard for me, and you pull up your Calc grade as best you can, I’ll think about sponsoring you for the fall semester. In return, you&#039;ll work part time as my personal assistant. If it doesn‘t work out, well, I know someone in the Admissions Office at A&amp;amp;M.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, that is how it started. A few afternoons each week, I helped her with her real estate business. I set up A/V and computer equipment at her business meetings, did internet research, ran errands for her, and was her general all-around gofer. Occasionally, I provided company for dinner, but the one thing I was both hoping for and afraid of never happened. She never came on to me. In fact, she only touched me a handful of times, never flirted and rarely even joked about sex. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She called me into her office after finals were over. She said, “You know, you’ve been a big help. I would have lost my shirt on the Boerne property if you hadn&#039;t spotted that structural problem. I hear the city just condemned it. Also, I talked to Dr. Drake, and he said you managed to pull off a B-. He was impressed, given your midterm grade. So, you fulfilled your part of our bargain. Now, whatever you decide about college, I’d like to keep you on. Do you still want to go to Murch next year?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I nodded my head yes. “Good” She put a piece of paper in front of me. “This is a contract. It says that I will pay your tuition for the fall semester. In return, you agree to work as my personal assistant. You will also maintain a B average, and add a minor in business administration to your engineering classes. After graduation, you&#039;ll make donations to Murch&#039;s financial aid endowment. If you do not satisfy these terms, you will repay me. Is that acceptable?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Um, do you have a pen I could use?” I signed the contract, and she signed her name beside mine. Then, she pulled out an envelope and handed it to me. Inside was a check for the fall semester’s tuition, minus the financial aid I had managed to keep. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You’ll still be responsible for room, board and fees,” she said. I wasn’t about to complain. “Now, two more things. If you are going to be my assistant next year, you’ll need more reliable transportation than the bus or your bike.” She handed me another envelope. Inside it were the keys, title, registration and insurance for an older Civic. “Consider it your bonus for stopping me from buying that building. I assume you can drive a manual? No? Well then, I’ll just have to teach you!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh, wow! Thanks!&amp;quot; I spluttered, at a loss for any better words.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;And the other thing. A friend of mine works for Moody and Baker Engineering. On my recommendation, he&#039;s agreed to give you an internship this summer. You&#039;ll work for them half time, and half time for me. You can stay in my guest room. Interested?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
I spent a few weeks at home before returning to San Antonio for the summer.  My parents were exfremely unhappy about all this. They thought Ashley was using me for something. They didn&#039;t know what, but they didn&#039;t trust her motives. They also didn’t like the fact that I would be living with an older woman. It didn&#039;t matter that I said we&#039;d never had sex. In the end, though, I convinced them that a deal was a deal, and I couldn’t back out. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monday through Wednesday, I&#039;d get up, we&#039;d have breakfast together, and I&#039;d drive the Civic to M&amp;amp;B. I learned a lot about what engineering is really like. While the calculations I was learning at school are a part, it&#039;s really about solving the clients&#039; problems, within their budget, site constraints and building codes. That and documenting everything you do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wednesday afternoons, Thursdays and Fridays were spent as Ashley&#039;s gofer and A/V squad. I&#039;d also occasionally be her date for business dinners and other social functions. She taught me a lot that I would never have learned at the university: how to read people, how to read a contract, how to cook, how to choose a good wine, how to dress well. It was quite an education. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also helped out at her ranch in the Texas Hill Country, clearing brush or restoring the old stone ranchhouse. She was trying to exterminate invasive salt cedar from her property, and it was a lot of hard work. One day, I looked down at some ground still damp from last nights thunderstorms, and saw what appeared to be a big cat track. She said it was a bobcat. I wasn’t so sure. It was huge. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I stopped at an Army/Navy store the next day and bought a Ka-Bar. I knew I wouldn’t need it for a bobcat, and it wouldn’t help against a puma. Still, carrying it made me feel better when we were clearing brush. It made her laugh. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In early June, my parents came up for a weekend to meet Ashley. She must have made a good impression, because their disapproval faded after that. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As I got to know her, I occasionally caught glimpses behind the facade she showed the    world. She wasn&#039;t the strong, self-sufficient businesswoman she liked people to think she was. Every once in a while, she&#039;d see a happy couple, and a lonely, wistful look would come over her face for just an instant. Once in a great while, she&#039;d start flirt with me, stop suddenly and deny it ever happened.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that’s how I ended up at her ranch one night in mid June. After a wonderful dinner that we had cooked together, and more wine than I was used to, she started flirting with me. I expected her to stop like always, but she didn&#039;t. I suppose the wine also helped, but the next thing I knew, I was flat on my back on her four-post bed, buck naked. The old floor-to-ceiling doors were open, and the curtains fluttered in the warm evening breeze. She was kneeling over me, naked and half-illuminated by the moonlight and candles, saying, “Do you trust me?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yes,“ I said. Get a 20 year guy old somewhat drunk and very hot and bothered, and he’ll say yes to just about anything a good looking woman asks. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She took my wrists and stretched my hands up over my head and pinned them there.  She then straddled my thighs and wrapped one hand around my cock. “Comfy?” she asked as she kneaded with her strong fingers. I was too distracted to reply with anything but a low moan. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She dug her nails into the tender skin along the underside of my cock. I gasped. I was about to complain, but it felt incredible. She raised herself up onto her knees, shifted a bit, then impaled herself on me. She was hot, wet and tight. Hotter and tighter than anyone I had ever been with before. Not that I was very experienced. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I moaned again and closed my eyes. She lifted up again, and something sharp dragged against the top of my cock as she did so. I instantly sat up, or would have if my arms hadn’t been pinned down. She was way stronger than she looked. “What the fuck!” I yelled as I looked down. Two thin scratches ran the length of my cock, with beads of blood forming. “Why the heck did you do that? Let me go!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m afraid I can’t, Jake. Not anymore. If I did, I’d have to kill you. And I like you too much to do that.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sank back down, and her vaginal wetness stung in the scratches. “You see, Jake,” she said as she leaned forward, the candles on the nightstands shining on her face, “I’m not exactly human, and soon you won’t be either.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As she said this, her irises changed from blue to gold, and expanded so no white was showing. Changes progressed outwards from there. Her eyelids turned black, and the outer corners shifted upwards. Her nose grew broader, then longer as her upper lip became fleshier and her jaws extended. Her ears became thin, pointed, and migrated back and up. She sat up again, and her breasts shrank until they were mostly nipple. Two rows of dark spots appeared below them, then grew into additional nipples. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sat there for a moment, with her free hand resting on my belly. Each finger ended in a sharp, hooked claw. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m a shape shifter, a were-cougar. And now you will be too. It’s transmitted by bodily fluids. I could have bitten you, but I thought this would be more … fun. With my vashinal wetnesh in your bloodshtream, you will be a were-cougar, thoo!” She smiled, showing off long fangs and sharp incisors.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know, I wash thinking abouth thath Craigthlith ad.” Her diction was becoming slurred as her mouth became more and more catlike. “You really shoulth be carefull whath you athk for, jutht in cathe you geth ith!” By this time, he body was covered in pale brown fur, and her internal temperature became even hotter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My mind was torn between horny and horror. I wanted to throw her off me and run. I wanted her to keep fucking me. I didn’t want to come and release the only control I had left. I couldn’t wait until I did. I was on the edge of panic when I finally orgasmed, my cock pulsing and throbbing inside what was now almost entirely a cougar. Only a few faint vestiges of humanity were still visible - fingers on her front paws, and a deeper brainpan than normal for a feline. She lay down on me and pushed her nose into my face. Her tail flicked between my ankles. Her whiskers tickled as she rubbed her cheeks on mine. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Scent marking me, claiming me as yours? I asked. She lifted her head, and nodded. All of a sudden, I had to laugh. She tilted her head as if to ask, “What?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I just came in a pussy pussy!” She crinkled her nose at me, and proceeded to lick my face with her very rough tongue. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The next morning, I woke up with my cock in something hot, wet and vibrating. It took me a minute to realize what was going on - the most incredible blowjob I’d ever gotten. She was purring! Between that and the incredible things her coarse tongue did to me, I quickly exploded into her mouth. She cleaned me off with her tongue, then licked her lips.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“There is a serious advantage to being one of the smaller cats,” she said. “Lions, tigers and leopards get all the press, but they can’t give purr jobs! Come on, breakfast is ready. Let’s eat while I explain.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Breakfast was delicious, as usual. As we ate, she told me that she had been an ROTC cadet until she was diagnosed with advanced hepatitis during her sophomore year. She lost her ROTC scholarship, and would have had to withdraw from Murch if one of her doctors hadn&#039;t taken her under his wing. Soon after, she let him seduce her, only to find herself being forced by a cougar. He was apologetic after, and taught her how to control her inner beast, but she never again let her guard down around him. Until the previous night, had restricted herself to a few one-night stands with other were-folk. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know,” she said, “I wasn’t joking last night. When I said I’d have to kill you. It’s one of the few laws all weres have in common. Anyone who knows we exist must become one of us, or die. Had I let you go, the local werewolf pack would hunt us down. They&#039;d kill me, and rape you, making you one of them.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She stopped spreading jam on her toast and put it down. “I’m sorry, Jake, truly I am. It’s just that I’ve been so alone. I can’t undo what I did to you last night. I wish I could have given you a choice.” I didn’t know what to say, so I said nothing. We went our separate ways to work: me to my internship, her to her office.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Later, I returned to the ranch to find her sitting on the patio, with wet eyes. I wasn’t yet sure how I felt about what she had done to me, but I still cared for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I sat next to her, and she said, “After Dr. Hennessey changed me, I felt like I had been raped. Yes, the sex was completely consensual, but what came with it… was very much like a rape. And now, I&#039;ve done the same thing to you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;And on top of that, I changed you because I was tired of being human all the time. I like being the cougar. It&#039;s my stress relief after a hard day.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I feel so guilty. For two ultimately selfish reasons, I condemned you to the same lonely life I&#039;m stuck with. Can you forgive me?&amp;quot; She looked so miserable, so apologetic, that I took her in my arms, and kissed her tears away. Eventually, we were kissing, then she made love to me with an abandon that can only come from denying yourself for fifteen years. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then something she had said clicked. “You had unprotected sex with me, and you have hepatitis?” I almost screamed it at her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She laughed at me. That made me even madder. She actually laughed at me. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I turned you into a fucking werecat, and you’re worried about hepatitis?” She continued more quietly. “Jake, The virus can’t survive in a felid body, and most cougar diseases can’t survive in humans. About the only thing we have to worry about are rabies and toxoplasmosis. Avoid rabid animals, don‘t eat rats and wash your hands after changing a litter box, and you don‘t really have to worry about infectious disease at all.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the next several weeks like that. She’d wake me with a blowjob or sex, we’d go off to work, then come home for more. In between, she told me what to expect on the next night of the full moon. Eventually, she said, I’d be able to control it and change at will regardless of the moon phase, but for the next six months or so, I should plan on spending full moon nights at the ranch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During that time, I felt something strange building within me. Some sort of tension, or static electric energy. It felt like every nerve I had was buzzing with fear or with anticipation, I couldn’t tell which. Probably both. She enrolled me in meditation and tai chi lessons, and that was the only thing that really eased the itch. Well, that and sex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The morning of the full moon, I woke up before she did for a change. I was near bursting with the tension within me. I figured it was time to pay her back for all the wakeup calls she had given me. I slowly spread Ashley’s legs apart, then kissed the slit between them, at first gently, then with more and more pressure as her labia swelled and dampened. I licked and sucked and prodded with my tongue until I felt her spasm. Before the last wave crested, I flipped her on to her stomach, then took her from behind. Before long, she came again with me inside her. It felt so good that I followed shortly thereafter. I collapsed on top of her as we basked in the orgasm afterglow. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She lifted herself up on one elbow to look over her shoulder at me, smiled, and kissed me. Then she reached over to her handbag and pulled out a compact. She opened it up and held it so I could see myself in the mirror. My brown eyes had lightened to cougar gold. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I called in sick to my internship, and we spent most of the day clearing salt cedar. By the end of the day, I felt like I was holding a live wire or something. My whole body was buzzing with energy. I heard a flutter behind me, and by reflex turned to look. My eye was immediately caught by the motion of a sparrow flying overhead. After it passed, I smelled its scent wafting down. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All day, I was being distracted by the local wildlife. All the time I had helped her on her ranch, I had never noticed how much of it there was. Now, every rustle, every scent on the breeze, every glimpse of motion caught my attention. Late in the afternoon, we spooked a rabbit, and I almost started chasing it. Ashley laughed, put her arms around me and said “I’ve done that, too. Come on, it’s almost time.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the sun getting low in the sky, she led me to a secluded clearing overlooking the creek. We undressed each other, then sat down to watch the sunset. It made everything glow, including her body. Her scent filled my nostrils. I reached for her. She put her arms around me, gave me a hug, and said, “Not now. Later, I promise.” She was still holding me as the nervous tension inside me crescendoed. I looked behind us, and saw the moon rising over the hill. “It’s okay, baby. I’m here with you. I’ll be with you.” She kept murmuring reassurances in my ear as the tension became unbearable.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It started in my groin where she had - is infected the right word? - well, infected me. My cock and balls retreated backwards between my legs. My cock was slowly being enveloped by a sheath. As I watched, the tip disappeared inside it. I felt pressure inside my fingertips. My nails grew thicker and longer and hooked into wickedly sharp claws. Then I felt the same thing in my toes. My toenails became claws, then my toes bent upwards as my foot bones lengthened. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My canine teeth expanded in girth and length. I ran my tongue over my new fangs. The pressure grew to fill my lower face. I felt my jaws extending forward, pushed out by the pressure within. My nose broadened and suddenly, I was overwhelmed by the scents surrounding me. I focused on Ashley’s scent. Her odor, her words whispered in my ears, her arms around me kept me grounded, sane, as my ears were dragged backwards and upwards through my skull. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It’s hard to describe what happened after that. It’s not that I don’t remember what happened. I can’t find the words to describe it. My best guess is, as the changes penetrated into my brain, I lost the use of language. Ashley’s murmured reassurances became a soft buzz. This scared me more than anything else had. Was I losing my identity, the memories and skills and experiences that made me who I am? Until then, I could think of myself as a human in a cougar body. Now I was losing that, too,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The pressure increased and the changes to my arms, leg and head progressed. Finally, with a sensation somewhere between a full-body toothache and a mind-blowing, toe-curling orgasm, the rest of my body followed. I was a cougar.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You know the feeling of release when the last item of clothing comes off, and you&#039;re finally fully naked for the first time with a new lover? That&#039;s what it felt like. I felt free. Unfettered.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I tried to run, but my four legs betrayed me. I couldn’t coordinate them, and fell painfully on my snout. Ashley let me go, and got down on her hands and knees. She shifted into a cougar herself. It was the first time I got to watch her shift since that night weeks before. I had been a bit distracted then. I was amazed by how fluid it looked, compared to how my change felt. After I regained my feet, she led me into the bushes. I stumbled at first, but soon walking on four legs seemed natural. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the night prowling her ranch. She taught me how to walk, run, pounce, and climb on four legs instead of two, how to use night vision, smell and hearing to navigate instead of stumbling around in the dark. Towards dawn, she brought down a yearling buck, and I tasted hot blood for the first time. It was wonderful. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then she led me back to the clearing by the creek where we had first changed. We made love in the dawn sunlight as we regained our humanity. Along with everything else that summer, she taught me how to be a cougar and a man, without losing my identity in the cougar mind.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;By [[User_talk:Triskelelynx|Triskelelynx]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No matter how many times I checked my math, the answer came out the same. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I had flunked my Calculus II mid-term exam so badly that, even if I got straight 100s for the rest of the semester, my final grade would be too low to keep my scholarship. Without it, there was no way my family could pay my tuition at a private liberal arts college like Murchison U.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My roommate Scott heard me groan, and asked what was wrong. I explained, and he let out a low whistle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;That’s a serious bummer!” he said. “What are you going to do?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Transfer to UT or A&amp;amp;M, I guess.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Damn. You‘ve been a good roommate.” He went back to studying, then a few minutes later said, “You need a cougar.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A what?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A cougar. A rich woman to pay your bills. The female equivalent of a sugar daddy.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Oh, stop it!&amp;quot; I yelled, &amp;quot;You want me to prostitute myself to pay for college? That&#039;s just wrong! And besides, how the heck could I attract a woman like that?” I was after all, a scrawny, somewhat nerdy engineering major.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He just smiled and went back to his studying, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A few days later, he flashed me a big grin and showed me an ad on Craigslist. “Cougar wanted,” it said. “Nice but shy SWM, NS, college student seeks sugar mommy for …” I didn’t bother reading the rest. &amp;quot;Come one!” I said. “Did you do that?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yep! And you have a response already!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It took him a few days to convince me to let him reply for me. The next day, he told me that I had a lunch date Saturday at a Riverwalk café. I almost didn’t go, but I figured, what did I have to lose? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that is how I met Ashley. I was wearing my best jeans, a halfway decent button-down shirt, and a tie. I was a few minutes late. I’d like to say it was because I missed a bus connection, but it was mostly because I had trouble getting the knot in my tie right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Years ago, the City of San Antonio made plans to bury the San Antonio River through downtown. A group of insightful women saw that it could be more and convinced the city to do otherwise. Now it is an entertainment district one level below the street. The river has walkways on both sides, lined with restaurants, bars and shops.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked down the steps from the street and saw a slender woman sitting at a table set for two. Her back was to me, so my first impression was tawny blond hair gathered in a silver clip at neck level, and hanging about halfway down the back of her white silk blouse. She was wearing a denim skirt just barely too short and tight for modesty, and cowboy boots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked up to the table, and she smiled up at me. “Are you Jake?” she asked. Her eyes matched her turquoise pendant. She was somewhere in her mid-thirties, and very attractive, but not quite gorgeous. That was a relief. I always get awkward and tongue-tied around beautiful women. “Yes, ma’am,” I replied. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Then, have a seat. And lose the tie,” she said. “And don’t call me ma’am.” To be honest, I was glad she told me to take the tie off. I hated wearing ties. To me, they are like inverted nooses. Also, it was getting rather warm in the sun. We spent a while in small talk until the waiter came over. She ordered for me, something Italian sounding and a glass of wine. I started to say that I was under 21, but she silenced me with a look. The waiter certainly looked like he wasn’t going to ask any questions. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The meal was delicious. It was a mixture of fresh vegetables, pasta and steak in a red sauce. Not a jar sauce you’d buy down in the HEB supermarket, but a sauce made from freshly diced tomatoes, herbs and spices, and red wine. We chatted some more while finishing out meals. After the waiter cleared the plates, her demeanor changed. Suddenly all business, she asked, “So, Jake, what do you want from me?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Instantly, a cat got my tongue. I had no idea what to say. Eventually, I managed to tell her the story about failing my Calc mid-term, losing my scholarship and my roommate’s solution. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“So, you’re looking for someone to pay your way through college,” she said. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I don’t know what I’m looking for, ma’am. It‘s just that I like Murch U. I want to finish my degree there, and I don‘t know how to pay for it. When Scott said he had set up the date with you, I figured I could always say no if I felt uncomfortable about it. At worst, I would be out an afternoon and the price of lunch.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“What’s Scott’s phone number?” she asked, pulling a high-end smartphone from her purse. I told her, and she called him. First, she verified that Scott had indeed placed the Craigslist ad and set me up. Then, she asked all sorts of questions about me like she was checking a job candidate’s references. She thanked Scott, put her phone in her purse, then looked at me for several long, awkward minutes. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m actually a Murch alumna, class of ‘99, so I understand why you’d want to stay. I like you, Jake. I’ll tell you what. You’re tuition is paid through the end of the semester, right? Let’s consider that your probation. If we get along, you work hard for me, and you pull up your Calc grade as best you can, I’ll think about sponsoring you for the fall semester. In return, you&#039;ll work part time as my personal assistant. If it doesn‘t work out, well, I know someone in the Admissions Office at A&amp;amp;M.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, that is how it started. A few afternoons each week, I helped her with her real estate business. I set up A/V and computer equipment at her business meetings, did internet research, ran errands for her, and was her general all-around gofer. Occasionally, I provided company for dinner, but the one thing I was both hoping for and afraid of never happened. She never came on to me. In fact, she only touched me a handful of times, never flirted and rarely even joked about sex. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She called me into her office after finals were over. She said, “You know, you’ve been a big help. I would have lost my shirt on the Boerne property if you hadn&#039;t spotted that structural problem. I hear the city just condemned it. Also, I talked to Dr. Drake, and he said you managed to pull off a B-. He was impressed, given your midterm grade. So, you fulfilled your part of our bargain. Now, whatever you decide about college, I’d like to keep you on. Do you still want to go to Murch next year?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I nodded my head yes. “Good” She put a piece of paper in front of me. “This is a contract. It says that I will pay your tuition for the fall semester. In return, you agree to work as my personal assistant. You will also maintain a B average, and add a minor in business administration to your engineering classes. After graduation, you&#039;ll make donations to Murch&#039;s financial aid endowment. If you do not satisfy these terms, you will repay me. Is that acceptable?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Um, do you have a pen I could use?” I signed the contract, and she signed her name beside mine. Then, she pulled out an envelope and handed it to me. Inside was a check for the fall semester’s tuition, minus the financial aid I had managed to keep. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You’ll still be responsible for room, board and fees,” she said. I wasn’t about to complain. “Now, two more things. If you are going to be my assistant next year, you’ll need more reliable transportation than the bus or your bike.” She handed me another envelope. Inside it were the keys, title, registration and insurance for an older Civic. “Consider it your bonus for stopping me from buying that building. I assume you can drive a manual? No? Well then, I’ll just have to teach you!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh, wow! Thanks!&amp;quot; I spluttered, at a loss for any better words.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;And the other thing. A friend of mine works for Moody and Baker Engineering. On my recommendation, he&#039;s agreed to give you an internship this summer. You&#039;ll work for them half time, and half time for me. You can stay in my guest room. Interested?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, I spent a few weeks at home before returning to San Antonio for the summer.  My parents were exfremely unhappy about all this. They thought Ashley was using me for something. They didn&#039;t know what, but they didn&#039;t trust her motives. They also didn’t like the fact that I would be living with an older woman. It didn&#039;t matter that I said we&#039;d never had sex. In the end, though, I convinced them that a deal was a deal, and I couldn’t back out. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monday through Wednesday, I&#039;d get up, we&#039;d have breakfast together, and I&#039;d drive the Civic to M&amp;amp;B. I learned a lot about what engineering is really like. While the calculations I was learning at school are a part, it&#039;s really about solving the clients&#039; problems, within their budget, site constraints and building codes. That and documenting everything you do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wednesday afternoons, Thursdays and Fridays were spent as Ashley&#039;s gofer and A/V squad. I&#039;d also occasionally be her date for business dinners and other social functions. She taught me a lot that I would never have learned at the university: how to read people, how to read a contract, how to cook, how to choose a good wine, how to dress well. It was quite an education. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also helped out at her ranch in the Texas Hill Country, clearing brush or restoring the old stone ranchhouse. She was trying to exterminate invasive salt cedar from her property, and it was a lot of hard work. One day, I looked down at some ground still damp from last nights thunderstorms, and saw what appeared to be a big cat track. She said it was a bobcat. I wasn’t so sure. It was huge. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I stopped at an Army/Navy store the next day and bought a Ka-Bar. I knew I wouldn’t need it for a bobcat, and it wouldn’t help against a puma. Still, carrying it made me feel better when we were clearing brush. It made her laugh. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In early June, my parents came up for a weekend to meet Ashley. She must have made a good impression, because their disapproval faded after that. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As I got to know her, I occasionally caught glimpses behind the facade she showed the    world. She wasn&#039;t the strong, self-sufficient businesswoman she liked people to think she was. Every once in a while, she&#039;d see a happy couple, and a lonely, wistful look would come over her face for just an instant. Once in a great while, she&#039;d start flirt with me, stop suddenly and deny it ever happened.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that’s how I ended up at her ranch one night in mid June. After a wonderful dinner that we had cooked together, and more wine than I was used to, she started flirting with me. I expected her to stop like always, but she didn&#039;t. I suppose the wine also helped, but the next thing I knew, I was flat on my back on her four-post bed, buck naked. The old floor-to-ceiling doors were open, and the curtains fluttered in the warm evening breeze. She was kneeling over me, naked and half-illuminated by the moonlight and candles, saying, “Do you trust me?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yes,“ I said. Get a 20 year guy old somewhat drunk and very hot and bothered, and he’ll say yes to just about anything a good looking woman asks. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She took my wrists and stretched my hands up over my head and pinned them there.  She then straddled my thighs and wrapped one hand around my cock. “Comfy?” she asked as she kneaded with her strong fingers. I was too distracted to reply with anything but a low moan. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She dug her nails into the tender skin along the underside of my cock. I gasped. I was about to complain, but it felt incredible. She raised herself up onto her knees, shifted a bit, then impaled herself on me. She was hot, wet and tight. Hotter and tighter than anyone I had ever been with before. Not that I was very experienced. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I moaned again and closed my eyes. She lifted up again, and something sharp dragged against the top of my cock as she did so. I instantly sat up, or would have if my arms hadn’t been pinned down. She was way stronger than she looked. “What the fuck!” I yelled as I looked down. Two thin scratches ran the length of my cock, with beads of blood forming. “Why the heck did you do that? Let me go!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m afraid I can’t, Jake. Not anymore. If I did, I’d have to kill you. And I like you too much to do that.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sank back down, and her vaginal wetness stung in the scratches. “You see, Jake,” she said as she leaned forward, the candles on the nightstands shining on her face, “I’m not exactly human, and soon you won’t be either.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As she said this, her irises changed from blue to gold, and expanded so no white was showing. Changes progressed outwards from there. Her eyelids turned black, and the outer corners shifted upwards. Her nose grew broader, then longer as her upper lip became fleshier and her jaws extended. Her ears became thin, pointed, and migrated back and up. She sat up again, and her breasts shrank until they were mostly nipple. Two rows of dark spots appeared below them, then grew into additional nipples. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sat there for a moment, with her free hand resting on my belly. Each finger ended in a sharp, hooked claw. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m a shape shifter, a were-cougar. And now you will be too. It’s transmitted by bodily fluids. I could have bitten you, but I thought this would be more … fun. With my vashinal wetnesh in your bloodshtream, you will be a were-cougar, thoo!” She smiled, showing off long fangs and sharp incisors.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know, I wash thinking abouth thath Craigthlith ad.” Her diction was becoming slurred as her mouth became more and more catlike. “You really shoulth be carefull whath you athk for, jutht in cathe you geth ith!” By this time, he body was covered in pale brown fur, and her internal temperature became even hotter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My mind was torn between horny and horror. I wanted to throw her off me and run. I wanted her to keep fucking me. I didn’t want to come and release the only control I had left. I couldn’t wait until I did. I was on the edge of panic when I finally orgasmed, my cock pulsing and throbbing inside what was now almost entirely a cougar. Only a few faint vestiges of humanity were still visible - fingers on her front paws, and a deeper brainpan than normal for a feline. She lay down on me and pushed her nose into my face. Her tail flicked between my ankles. Her whiskers tickled as she rubbed her cheeks on mine. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Scent marking me, claiming me as yours? I asked. She lifted her head, and nodded. All of a sudden, I had to laugh. She tilted her head as if to ask, “What?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I just came in a pussy pussy!” She crinkled her nose at me, and proceeded to lick my face with her very rough tongue. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The next morning, I woke up with my cock in something hot, wet and vibrating. It took me a minute to realize what was going on - the most incredible blowjob I’d ever gotten. She was purring! Between that and the incredible things her coarse tongue did to me, I quickly exploded into her mouth. She cleaned me off with her tongue, then licked her lips.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“There is a serious advantage to being one of the smaller cats,” she said. “Lions, tigers and leopards get all the press, but they can’t give purr jobs! Come on, breakfast is ready. Let’s eat while I explain.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Breakfast was delicious, as usual. As we ate, she told me that she had been an ROTC cadet until she was diagnosed with advanced hepatitis during her sophomore year. She lost her ROTC scholarship, and would have had to withdraw from Murch if one of her doctors hadn&#039;t taken her under his wing. Soon after, she let him seduce her, only to find herself being forced by a cougar. He was apologetic after, and taught her how to control her inner beast, but she never again let her guard down around him. Until the previous night, had restricted herself to a few one-night stands with other were-folk. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know,” she said, “I wasn’t joking last night. When I said I’d have to kill you. It’s one of the few laws all weres have in common. Anyone who knows we exist must become one of us, or die. Had I let you go, the local werewolf pack would hunt us down. They&#039;d kill me, and rape you, making you one of them.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She stopped spreading jam on her toast and put it down. “I’m sorry, Jake, truly I am. It’s just that I’ve been so alone. I can’t undo what I did to you last night. I wish I could have given you a choice.” I didn’t know what to say, so I said nothing. We went our separate ways to work: me to my internship, her to her office.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Later, I returned to the ranch to find her sitting on the patio, with wet eyes. I wasn’t yet sure how I felt about what she had done to me, but I still cared for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I sat next to her, and she said, “After Dr. Hennessey changed me, I felt like I had been raped. Yes, the sex was completely consensual, but what came with it… was very much like a rape. And now, I&#039;ve done the same thing to you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;And on top of that, I changed you because I was tired of being human all the time. I like being the cougar. It&#039;s my stress relief after a hard day.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I feel so guilty. For two ultimately selfish reasons, I condemned you to the same lonely life I&#039;m stuck with. Can you forgive me?&amp;quot; She looked so miserable, so apologetic, that I took her in my arms, and kissed her tears away. Eventually, we were kissing, then she made love to me with an abandon that can only come from denying yourself for fifteen years. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then something she had said clicked. “You had unprotected sex with me, and you have hepatitis?” I almost screamed it at her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She laughed at me. That made me even madder. She actually laughed at me. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I turned you into a fucking werecat, and you’re worried about hepatitis?” She continued more quietly. “Jake, The virus can’t survive in a felid body, and most cougar diseases can’t survive in humans. About the only thing we have to worry about are rabies and toxoplasmosis. Avoid rabid animals, don‘t eat rats and wash your hands after changing a litter box, and you don‘t really have to worry about infectious disease at all.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the next several weeks like that. She’d wake me with a blowjob or sex, we’d go off to work, then come home for more. In between, she told me what to expect on the next night of the full moon. Eventually, she said, I’d be able to control it and change at will regardless of the moon phase, but for the next six months or so, I should plan on spending full moon nights at the ranch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During that time, I felt something strange building within me. Some sort of tension, or static electric energy. It felt like every nerve I had was buzzing with fear or with anticipation, I couldn’t tell which. Probably both. She enrolled me in meditation and tai chi lessons, and that was the only thing that really eased the itch. Well, that and sex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The morning of the full moon, I woke up before she did for a change. I was near bursting with the tension within me. I figured it was time to pay her back for all the wakeup calls she had given me. I slowly spread Ashley’s legs apart, then kissed the slit between them, at first gently, then with more and more pressure as her labia swelled and dampened. I licked and sucked and prodded with my tongue until I felt her spasm. Before the last wave crested, I flipped her on to her stomach, then took her from behind. Before long, she came again with me inside her. It felt so good that I followed shortly thereafter. I collapsed on top of her as we basked in the orgasm afterglow. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She lifted herself up on one elbow to look over her shoulder at me, smiled, and kissed me. Then she reached over to her handbag and pulled out a compact. She opened it up and held it so I could see myself in the mirror. My brown eyes had lightened to cougar gold. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I called in sick to my internship, and we spent most of the day clearing salt cedar. By the end of the day, I felt like I was holding a live wire or something. My whole body was buzzing with energy. I heard a flutter behind me, and by reflex turned to look. My eye was immediately caught by the motion of a sparrow flying overhead. After it passed, I smelled its scent wafting down. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All day, I was being distracted by the local wildlife. All the time I had helped her on her ranch, I had never noticed how much of it there was. Now, every rustle, every scent on the breeze, every glimpse of motion caught my attention. Late in the afternoon, we spooked a rabbit, and I almost started chasing it. Ashley laughed, put her arms around me and said “I’ve done that, too. Come on, it’s almost time.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the sun getting low in the sky, she led me to a secluded clearing overlooking the creek. We undressed each other, then sat down to watch the sunset. It made everything glow, including her body. Her scent filled my nostrils. I reached for her. She put her arms around me, gave me a hug, and said, “Not now. Later, I promise.” She was still holding me as the nervous tension inside me crescendoed. I looked behind us, and saw the moon rising over the hill. “It’s okay, baby. I’m here with you. I’ll be with you.” She kept murmuring reassurances in my ear as the tension became unbearable.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It started in my groin where she had - is infected the right word? - well, infected me. My cock and balls retreated backwards between my legs. My cock was slowly being enveloped by a sheath. As I watched, the tip disappeared inside it. I felt pressure inside my fingertips. My nails grew thicker and longer and hooked into wickedly sharp claws. Then I felt the same thing in my toes. My toenails became claws, then my toes bent upwards as my foot bones lengthened. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My canine teeth expanded in girth and length. I ran my tongue over my new fangs. The pressure grew to fill my lower face. I felt my jaws extending forward, pushed out by the pressure within. My nose broadened and suddenly, I was overwhelmed by the scents surrounding me. I focused on Ashley’s scent. Her odor, her words whispered in my ears, her arms around me kept me grounded, sane, as my ears were dragged backwards and upwards through my skull. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It’s hard to describe what happened after that. It’s not that I don’t remember what happened. I can’t find the words to describe it. My best guess is, as the changes penetrated into my brain, I lost the use of language. Ashley’s murmured reassurances became a soft buzz. This scared me more than anything else had. Was I losing my identity, the memories and skills and experiences that made me who I am? Until then, I could think of myself as a human in a cougar body. Now I was losing that, too,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The pressure increased and the changes to my arms, leg and head progressed. Finally, with a sensation somewhere between a full-body toothache and a mind-blowing, toe-curling orgasm, the rest of my body followed. I was a cougar.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You know the feeling of release when the last item of clothing comes off, and you&#039;re finally fully naked for the first time with a new lover? That&#039;s what it felt like. I felt free. Unfettered.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I tried to run, but my four legs betrayed me. I couldn’t coordinate them, and fell painfully on my snout. Ashley let me go, and got down on her hands and knees. She shifted into a cougar herself. It was the first time I got to watch her shift since that night weeks before. I had been a bit distracted then. I was amazed by how fluid it looked, compared to how my change felt. After I regained my feet, she led me into the bushes. I stumbled at first, but soon walking on four legs seemed natural. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the night prowling her ranch. She taught me how to walk, run, pounce, and climb on four legs instead of two, how to use night vision, smell and hearing to navigate instead of stumbling around in the dark. Towards dawn, she brought down a yearling buck, and I tasted hot blood for the first time. It was wonderful. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then she led me back to the clearing by the creek where we had first changed. We made love in the dawn sunlight as we regained our humanity. Along with everything else that summer, she taught me how to be a cougar and a man, without losing my identity in the cougar mind.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;This story has the same lead character as [[Cougar Town]] but I think it will stand alone. It takes place about 15 years later. It has adult content, some of it nonconsentual&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I hope Vivian won&#039;t be there.&amp;quot; John said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You know she will,&amp;quot; replied Rowan. &amp;quot;The conference is in the same city as her office. You need to tell her to either stop flirting with you, or date you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I tried that. She just laughed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ro, John and I were in her Accord, driving from Syracuse, NY to Rochester for an engineering convention. John, a tall, dark haired fellow, was in the passenger seat. I was in the back, behind Rowan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We were going to represent our employer, Leightner McFarland Engineering, at the convention. Rowan and I were presenting about the success of our village streetscape project. I was the design engineer and responsible for the overall project. Rowan had designed the sidewalks, landscaping, and drainage. John headed another design team, and was going to talk to prospective clients.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian is LME&#039;s lead real estate lawyer. John had to work with Vivian because his project involved extensive right-of-way purchases.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Vivian often flirts with John to the very limits of professional office behavior, and sometimes beyond. As soon as he responds, though, she gets frigid. It doesn&#039;t help that Vivian is a gorgeous redhead. Anyone could see why John hated it. Unlike most people, however, I can tell she has a serious case of the hots for him. I can smell it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also know why she can&#039;t act on it. You see, Vivian has a secret. She is a werewolf. I can smell that, too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How can I smell it? I have a secret, too. I&#039;m a were-cougar. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I can sympathize with Vivian to some extent. Rowan flirted with me when she first joined the company. It was hard for me. Ro is a pretty brunette with blue eyes and fair skin, with intelligence and personality to match. I wanted so much to ask her out, but I couldn&#039;t, and it wasn&#039;t because of the company&#039;s policy about dating subordinates.  I finally told her to stop.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well at least her hair makes her easy to spot,&amp;quot; Ro said. &amp;quot;Don&#039;t worry. Jake and I will run interference for you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, John&#039;s phone beeped. John looked at it and said, &amp;quot;The Thruway is closed ahead. Bad crash. Take the next exit. It looks like we&#039;re taking the back roads.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well, crap!&amp;quot; Ro said. &amp;quot;At least there will be a full moon tonight, so it&#039;ll be easier to see on the back roads.&amp;quot; I was already feeling the tingle of energy from the moon. Felines like me aren&#039;t as strongly tied to the moon as werewolves, but we still hear her call.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As we drove west through the upstate New York countryside, we were treated to a gorgeous sunset in front of us as the moon rose behind us. Ro was enjoying it, pumping the clutch and flicking the Honda&#039;s shift lever from gear to gear to match the engine speed to the curves and hills. She bought the Honda because it&#039;s one of the few sedans still available with a manual.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We crested a hill and were greeted by the sight of an old farmhouse and barn across the valley, glowing in the light of the setting sun. As we dropped down into the shadow of the valley, I caught a flicker of motion off to the right. &amp;quot;Look out!&amp;quot; I yelled, just as a doe lept over the road. The grey blur following it crashed into the front of the car, smashed the windshield, and disappeared over the roof.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rowan slammed the brake pedal hard. The ABS clattered like mad as the car slewed to a stop. We all got out. John went to check the damage to the car, and Ro looked for whatever we hit. As I opened my door, the scent hit me. Werewolves! &amp;quot;Get back in the car, NOW!&amp;quot; I yelled. She looked at me, then behind me, and screamed. Something slammed into the back of the head, and the world went red and black.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I came to with the throbbing head and nausea of a concussion. I part-changed to cougar and back to heal the damage, then assessed the situation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first thing I noticed was a damp basement odor, overlayed with the scents of wolves. Lots of wolves. I was on a cold, grimy stone floor. The light of a bare bulb showed that we were in a cage in an old basement, probably the in the farmhouse we saw. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rowan was curled up in a ball in the corner, sobbing and rocking back and forth. She reeked with fear. She had a severe dog phobia. She was attacked by one as a kid, and they can still put her on the edge of panic. Werewolves would scare any normal human. To a cynophobe like her, they&#039;d be paralyzing. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Outside the bars were two male and two female werewolves. They were half-changed - still bipedal, but with fur and tails and fangs and thick blunt claws. A female with reddish fur had John pinned him to the floor. She seemed familiar somehow, but I couldn&#039;t quite place it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I knew what was coming next. Were-folk have a general rule about not letting normal humans know about our existence. Anyone that knows has to become one of us, for our safety and security. For wolf packs, though, it has the force of law. The question was how they would enforce it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The red wolf dug her claws into the front of John&#039;s chinos and rent the fabric into tatters.  The boxers beneath them got the same treatment. She lowered her muzzle inside the tear and applied her long supple tongue to his crotch. John started to resist, but a growl and the firm but careful application of her fangs put an end to that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was too late to help John. I resolved to do what I could for Rowan. I pulled her close and wrapped my arms around her. She buried her head into the crook of my neck, sobbing something about dogs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Having gotten the results she wanted, the red wolf straddled John&#039;s hips and took him as he watched in horror. She gyrated her hips, milking him with her pussy while applying her paw-hand to her clit. Small whimpers from her throat son became loud moans. Moans became shreaks as she came. John, against his will, came too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sighed, then turned to the other female. &amp;quot;Emily, the other male is yours. Then we&#039;ll take care of the female. Just then, the airflow pattern in the basement changed and carried the female&#039;s scent to my nose. I recognized it. Ishould have known.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Emily came into the cage to get me. I gently set Bran on the floor and took a fighting stance between her and the wolf. &amp;quot;I admire your courage,&amp;quot; she said, &amp;quot;but you can&#039;t win. No human can beat a werewolf. Come along, and I&#039;ll be gentle.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I snapped a kick to her ribcage. She slammed back into the bars, and before she could recover, I spun her around facing away from me, got her right arm into a half-nelson and wrapped my other hand around her throat, claws extended and buried in her fur. Her eyed bulged. &amp;quot;Shh.&amp;quot; I said. &amp;quot;I don&#039;t want to hurt you.&amp;quot; Then, more louldy, &amp;quot;Vivian!&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian was walking towards the stairs with John over her shoulder. She handed John off to one of the males, and told him to take John up to her room and keep him there. She walked up to the cage and asked, &amp;quot;How did you know it was me?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You have a distinctive scent.&amp;quot; I said. At her puzzled look, I smiled and continued. &amp;quot;Wolves aren&#039;t the only creatures in the forest, don&#039;t you know.&amp;quot; That just confused her more. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed, showing her my yellow-gold cougar eyes, snout and ears. Light brown fur covered my skin. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I had no idea there were shifters besides us wolves ... Well, you obviously won&#039;t be joining our pack, but I don&#039;t think we need to worry about you talking. Let Emily go and join us for dinner. We&#039;re having venison.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I shook my head. &amp;quot;Viv, about Rowan. She&#039;s no good to you. She&#039;s phobic. Can&#039;t you smell it? Can&#039;t you hear her? Do you really want a pack member that goes batshit crazy every full moon? Let me change her. She&#039;ll be better off as a cougar. Heck, she loves cats. She breeds them. You&#039;ll be better off with her as a sane cougar than a crazy wolf&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The remaining male growled, &amp;quot;It&#039;s the law. She must join...&amp;quot; He fell silent at Vivian&#039;s gesture.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sighed. &amp;quot;Well, the alphas won&#039;t like it, but you&#039;re probably right. But if she&#039;s still human in the morning, neither of you are leaving this cage.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I let Emily go with an apology, and said to Vivian, &amp;quot;Do you have any place with bit more privacy, and less grime?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian nodded. &amp;quot;Emily, put them in the safe room, please. Oh, and for letting him get the drop on you, you won&#039;t be joining tonight&#039;s pack run. Instead, you&#039;ll guard the door and make sure she&#039;s changed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I picked up Ro and followed Emily to a door across the basement. She opened it and said, &amp;quot;You can stay in here. It&#039;s still a cell, but at least it has a real floor and a bed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She opened the door and motioned us in. &lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The thick, iron-bound oaken door slammed shut behind us, and several heavy steel bolts slide home. Enough moonlight came through a heavily barred window near the ceiling of the far wall to see the inside of the door was covered with gouges and claw marks. Some had bloodstains. The irony of the name didn&#039;t escape me. This safe room wasn&#039;t a refuge in a home invasion or tornado. They lock up deranged wolves to keep the rest of the pack safe. The kind Rowan would likely become if I failed. I shuddered at the thought. If the pack took her, she&#039;d probably spend all her full moons in here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I set Rowan down on the stained, ragged mattress in the corner. It wasn&#039;t really a bed, but it was better than the cold stone floor. I sat next to her and pulled her onto my lap. She was still in the grips of her panic attack, rocking back and forth muttering &amp;quot;Dogs will kill me!&amp;quot; over and over.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Long ago, I swore an oath to myself that I&#039;d never change anyone without their consent, as I was. She couldn&#039;t consent during a panic attack, but could I let a wolf rape her? Would raping her myself be the lesser evil? I hoped I wouldn&#039;t have to make that choice. I had to get her calmed down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I realized what to do. Her cats were her babies. What&#039;s more calming than a purring kitty? I held her close and purred softly. It seemed to help, so I increased the volume.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It took a while, but it worked. The patch of moonlight from the window had moved down the door to the floor before she finally calmed. She sat up, looked around, and said in a panicky voice, &amp;quot;Are the dogs gone? Where are we? Where&#039;s John?&amp;quot; And then, &amp;quot;Did you hear a cat?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I pulled her close, kissed her forehead gently, and said, &amp;quot;It&#039;s okay. Well, it&#039;s far from okay, but it could be worse.&amp;quot; I took a breath. &amp;quot;Rowan, we&#039;re being held prisoner. By werewolves.&amp;quot; She made a skeptical noise. &amp;quot;Yes, they are real. Very, very real. John is on his way to becoming one of them.&amp;quot; I paused for a breath. &amp;quot;I couldn&#039;t save him, but I made a deal with them for you. The bad news is, you&#039;re not leaving this room as a human. The good news is you don&#039;t have to become a wolf. You have a choice. Let me change you, or they will, probably by force like they did to John&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Change me into what?&amp;quot; Her voice was skeptical.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Were-cougar, Or puma if you prefer.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;So, you&#039;re telling me we&#039;re captives of mythical creatures, you&#039;re a different mythical creature, and I have to choose between you and them.&amp;quot; Her tone was sarcastic and unbelieving. &amp;quot;You expect me to believe that if you bite me, I&#039;ll magically turn into a cougar? Extraordinary claims require...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Extraordinary proof, I know. I&#039;ll get to that in a minute. I&#039;d rather not bite you. That&#039;s uncivilized. Other bodily fluids work just as well. And as for proof...&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I took her hand and pulled it, palm up, into the moonlight. I let go, and placed my hand in hers, palm up. A moment&#039;s concentration, and my fingernails lengthened into sharp, hooked claws. Tough but supple pads formed under my knuckles and the middle joint of my fingers. Tawny fur covered the rest and up into my sleeve. With a quick indrawn breath, she caressed my fur, prodded my pads, and gently ran fingertips over the points of my claws. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Is this real,&amp;quot; she asked. &amp;quot;Am I dreaming? Drugged?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I kicked off my shoes, pulled off my socks and stood in the moonlight from the window. I faced her and unbuttoned my shirt, took it off and dropped it on the mattress. I could tell she liked what she saw. I&#039;m not muscle-bound by any means, but I am fit and toned. After unbuckling my belt and opening my fly, I hooked my thumbs over the waistbands of my pants and briefs and pushed them down to my ankles, changing as I did. I pulled my hind paws out of my pants and padded over to her on all fours. Her astonishment was plain on her face. I head-butted her a few times, then touched my muzzle to her nose.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Smiling with amazement, she reached up and tentatively touched my long whiskers, then the fur on my cheek. &amp;quot;Oh. My. God,&amp;quot; she said. &amp;quot;You&#039;re real! You&#039;re effin&#039; real! She started scratching behind my ears with both hands. I couldn&#039;t help myself. I started purring. It&#039;s is the best part of being one of the lesser cats. Lions, tigers, jaguars and leopards get the press, but they can&#039;t purr. We can&#039;t roar, but a snarl is almost as good, and purring is more fun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ro laughed out loud with delight. &amp;quot;That was you I heard!&amp;quot; she exclaimed. I had the wrong mouth shape to talk now, so I nodded yes. &amp;quot;So, I&#039;ll be able to change and purr and all this, too?&amp;quot; I nodded yes again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Tell me, Jake, what kind of bodily fluids were you talking about? Blood? Earwax?&amp;quot; I looked pointedly at her crotch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh, &#039;&#039;reeeally&#039;&#039;?&amp;quot; She said as she stood. &amp;quot;It&#039;s my turn.&amp;quot; She pulled the barrettes from her dark hair, letting it spill down her back. She unzipped her dress and slowly let it drop to the ground. Her bra soon followed, and she stood in front of me wearing just panties, thigh-highs, and kitten-heeled boots.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Had I been in human form, my cock would be standing at attention at that. Sadly, the sight of a naked human, however attractive, just didn&#039;t do it for my cat brain. She started caressing me, starting at my head, and working her way back to my tail. It felt good, but wasn&#039;t arousing. She reached around my rump and caressed my sheath. &amp;quot;No? Huh. Oh, I think I know how to get him to come out and play.&amp;quot; She pulled her panties down and kicked them off. The scent of her nethers tickled my nose. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I dropped my jaw a little and pulled up my upper lip, so her scent could reach the special scent receptors in the roof of my mouth. Yes, she was damp. Wet, even. Doing it with a cougar was a turn on for her? If that was her kink, I was the luckiest cat in the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She cupped her pussy with one hand, then pushed two fingers inside herself. She reached out and rubbed her damp fingers on my muzzle. The smell was intoxicating. Blood rushed to my crotch and I was fully engorged almost instantly. Although I was in cat form, I kept my cock mostly human for two reasons. To be honest, we felines just aren&#039;t well hung. Even lions are lacking in the package. Second, I didn&#039;t want to hurt her. We have barbed, spiky penises. I wanted to please her, not leave her a bloody mess down there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She turned and knelt on the mattress with her back to me, then dropped to all fours. With a come-hither look over her shoulder, she spread her knees apart, fully exposing that wonderfully-scented moistness. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My feline brain wanted to jump her, but I paused. I was genuinely fond of this woman. I didn&#039;t want to fuck her. Well, I did, but I wanted to make love to her. I mean, I may be an animal, but I&#039;m not an &#039;&#039;animal.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I moved up alongside her, licked her on the nose, then shoved my shoulder into hers. She yelped and rolled onto her back. I stepped over her and licked her nose again. I rubbed my cheeks against hers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Scent making me, claiming me as yours?&amp;quot; she asked. I nodded yes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I took a few steps back and gently licked her breast, starting on the outside and working to her nipple. By the time I got to he aureole, she was hard. I gently closed my mouth around it, pressed my tongue against it, and purred. She yelped, so I did it again on the other side. I had lost the element of surprise, but he noises told me it was working. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 Next, I started licking down her stomach. I pushed my snout between her legs. She giggled as my whiskers brushed the inside of her thighs. &amp;quot;Stop that! It tickles!&amp;quot; I didn&#039;t stop. Instead, I licked her folds softly, afraid my rough tongue might be too abrasive. I gently worked my tongue inside her, then upwards until I felt her button. I took a deep breath, and let it out with a purr. Yeah that worked. I did it again. That worked really well! It wasn&#039;t long before she was moaning and writhing. I started licking her clit like I was drinking water, tap-tap-tapping with my tongue. I kept it up, purring, licking and sucking, careful of my teeth, until moaning, she clamped her thighs around my head. She grabbed me behind the ears and held me still until the tremors subsided.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She let me go, and rolled back onto all fours. With a pounce I covered her. I gently nipped her neck between my fangs, and dropped my hips to take her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Aaaand,&#039;&#039; I missed. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pussy pussies are farther back than a woman&#039;s, just below the bung. It was kind of embarrassing. I was glad my fur covered my embarrassment. Before I could try again, she reached back and grasped me by the cock. After a few strokes with her hand, she pulled me down and forward and guided me inside her. Fuck! I thought. She actually &#039;&#039;wants&#039;&#039; this?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I started pumping into her. I had not had sex with a human woman since I was changed, so I was a bit worried that I&#039;d do it wrong. I wanted it to feel good for her. I must have been doing something right, she was soon moaning again. Or maybe it was her hypothetical cat fetish. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She moved with me, pushing back into my thrusts to take me fully inside herself, moaning with each one. The loudness and pitch increased until she yelped and I felt her contracting around me. That took me over the edge. I gave her the fluids that would keep her safe from the wolves, and hopefully not wreck her life. She collapsed onto the mattress with me on top of her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a minute. I started the change back to human. She felt my body shifting against her, and rolled over. &amp;quot;Don&#039;t change,&amp;quot; She said. &amp;quot;I like you like this.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed. I was still furred and clawed and snouted, but I could speak and wrap my arms around her. I rolled us over onto our sides, with my body between her and the cold wall. &amp;quot;Will this do? This way we can talk and cuddle.&amp;quot; I pulled her close, nuzzled her ear and purred.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mmm. I&#039;m going to have ask you to stop that. Sometime around three in the afternoon, I think.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Our presentation is at two,&amp;quot; I replied.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Fuck the presentation!&amp;quot; She said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I&#039;d rather fuck you again. Besides, how do you fuck a Powerpoint file?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, there was a knock on the door. The bolts slid back, and as the door opened, I put an arm across Rowan&#039;s breasts and draped my tail over her privates. Emily looked in and chuckled. Surprisingly, she was fully human, and fully nude.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You&#039;re such a gentleman. Anyway, now that that&#039;s done, you two can come upstairs and sleep in the guest room if you want. It has a real bed, pillows, blankets, and all that.&amp;quot; She looked at me and said, &amp;quot;Could you stay like that, so the pack can see you and smell you and know you really are a cougar?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We gathered our things. Ro threw her dress over her head. I hooked a thumb claw into the hole in the end of the zipper pull, and pulled it up for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The stairs of the old house were steep enough that Emily&#039;s butt was even with my nose. A trail of wolfy lust musk wafted behind her. Rowan probably couldn&#039;t smell it, but I could tell Em probably wanked to the sounds of our passion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d have to tell Rowan about the different meaning of privacy among shapeshifters. With our better hearing and smell, everyone knows who&#039;s doing who. We really can&#039;t hide it. Emily must have heard everything we did, and maybe even smelled it. Shifter society only works if we can put aside our jealousies and feel happy for people that share each other&#039;s bodies. Not all of us can.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first floor was littered with puppy piles. Some were just cuddling. Others smelled of sex. Gold eyes followed us, well mostly me, to the front stairs. Emily lead us up the stairs to a back bedroom, motioned us in, and said good night. Moonlight flooded the room through the lace curtains to show a four-poster queen bed. Our bags had been brought in from Ro&#039;s car.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;By [[User_talk:Triskelelynx|Triskelelynx]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No matter how many times I checked my math, the answer came out the same. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I had flunked my Calculus II mid-term exam so badly that, even if I got straight 100s for the rest of the semester, my final grade would be too low to keep my scholarship. Without it, there was no way my family could pay my tuition at a private liberal arts college like Murchison U.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My roommate Scott heard me groan, and asked what was wrong. I explained, and he let out a low whistle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;That’s a serious bummer!” he said. “What are you going to do?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Transfer to State, I guess.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Damn. You‘ve been a good roommate.” He went back to studying, then a few minutes later said, “You need a cougar.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A what?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A cougar. A rich woman to pay your bills. The female equivalent of a sugar daddy.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Oh, stop it!&amp;quot; I yelled, &amp;quot;You want me to prostitute myself to pay for college? That&#039;s just wrong! And besides, how the heck could I attract a woman like that?” I was after all, a scrawny, somewhat nerdy engineering major.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He just smiled and went back to his studying, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A few days later, he flashed me a big grin and showed me an ad on Craigslist. “Cougar wanted,” it said. “Nice but shy SWM, NS, college student seeks sugar mommy for …” I didn’t bother reading the rest. &amp;quot;Come one!” I said. “Did you do that?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yep! And you have a response already!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It took him a few days to convince me to let him reply for me. The next day, he told me that I had a lunch date Saturday at a Riverwalk café. I almost didn’t go, but I figured, what did I have to lose? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that is how I met Ashley. I was wearing my best jeans, a halfway decent button-down shirt, and a tie. I was a few minutes late. I’d like to say it was because I missed a bus connection, but it was mostly because I had trouble getting the knot in my tie right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Years ago, the City of San Antonio made plans to bury the San Antonio River through downtown. A group of insightful women saw that it could be more and convinced the city to do otherwise. Now it is an entertainment district one level below the street. The river has walkways on both sides, lined with restaurants, bars and shops.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked down the steps from the street and saw a slender woman sitting at a table set for two. Her back was to me, so my first impression was tawny blond hair gathered in a silver clip at neck level, and hanging about halfway down the back of her white silk blouse. She was wearing a denim skirt just barely too short and tight for modesty, and cowboy boots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked up to the table, and she smiled up at me. “Are you Jake?” she asked. Her eyes matched her turquoise pendant. She was somewhere in her mid-thirties, and very attractive, but not quite gorgeous. That was a relief. I always get awkward and tongue-tied around beautiful women. “Yes, ma’am,” I replied. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Then, have a seat. And lose the tie,” she said. “And don’t call me ma’am.” To be honest, I was glad she told me to take the tie off. I hated wearing ties. To me, they are like inverted nooses. Also, it was getting rather warm in the sun. We spent a while in small talk until the waiter came over. She ordered for me, something Italian sounding and a glass of wine. I started to say that I was under 21, but she silenced me with a look. The waiter certainly looked like he wasn’t going to ask any questions. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The meal was delicious. It was a mixture of fresh vegetables, pasta and steak in a red sauce. Not a jar sauce you’d buy down in the HEB supermarket, but a sauce made from freshly diced tomatoes, herbs and spices, and red wine. We chatted some more while finishing out meals. After the waiter cleared the plates, her demeanor changed. Suddenly all business, she asked, “So, Jake, what do you want from me?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Instantly, a cat got my tongue. I had no idea what to say. Eventually, I managed to tell her the story about failing my Calc mid-term, losing my scholarship and my roommate’s solution. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“So, you’re looking for someone to pay your way through college,” she said. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I don’t know what I’m looking for, ma’am. It‘s just that I like Murch U. I want to finish my degree there, and I don‘t know how to pay for it. When Scott said he had set up the date with you, I figured I could always say no if I felt uncomfortable about it. At worst, I would be out an afternoon and the price of lunch.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“What’s Scott’s phone number?” she asked, pulling a high-end smartphone from her purse. I told her, and she called him. First, she verified that Scott had indeed placed the Craigslist ad and set me up. Then, she asked all sorts of questions about me like she was checking a job candidate’s references. She thanked Scott, put her phone in her purse, then looked at me for several long, awkward minutes. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m actually a Murch alumna, class of ‘99, so I understand why you’d want to stay. I like you, Jake. I’ll tell you what. You’re tuition is paid through the end of the semester, right? Let’s consider that your probation. If we get along, you work hard for me, and you pull up your Calc grade as best you can, I’ll think about sponsoring you for the fall semester. In return, you&#039;ll work part time as my personal assistant. If it doesn‘t work out, well, I know someone in the Admissions Office at A&amp;amp;M.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, that is how it started. A few afternoons each week, I helped her with her real estate business. I set up A/V and computer equipment at her business meetings, did internet research, ran errands for her, and was her general all-around gofer. Occasionally, I provided company for dinner, but the one thing I was both hoping for and afraid of never happened. She never came on to me. In fact, she only touched me a handful of times, never flirted and rarely even joked about sex. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She called me into her office after finals were over. She said, “You know, you’ve been a big help. I would have lost my shirt on the Boerne property if you hadn&#039;t spotted that structural problem. I hear the city just condemned it. Also, I talked to Dr. Drake, and he said you managed to pull off a B-. He was impressed, given your midterm grade. So, you fulfilled your part of our bargain. Now, whatever you decide about college, I’d like to keep you on. Do you still want to go to Murch next year?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I nodded my head yes. “Good” She put a piece of paper in front of me. “This is a contract. It says that I will pay your tuition for the fall semester. In return, you agree to work as my personal assistant. You will also maintain a B average, and add a minor in business administration to your engineering classes. After graduation, you&#039;ll make donations to Murch&#039;s financial aid endowment. If you do not satisfy these terms, you will repay me. Is that acceptable?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Um, do you have a pen I could use?” I signed the contract, and she signed her name beside mine. Then, she pulled out an envelope and handed it to me. Inside was a check for the fall semester’s tuition, minus the financial aid I had managed to keep. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You’ll still be responsible for room, board and fees,” she said. I wasn’t about to complain. “Now, two more things. If you are going to be my assistant next year, you’ll need more reliable transportation than the bus or your bike.” She handed me another envelope. Inside it were the keys, title, registration and insurance for an older Civic. “Consider it your bonus for stopping me from buying that building. I assume you can drive a manual? No? Well then, I’ll just have to teach you!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh, wow! Thanks!&amp;quot; I spluttered, at a loss for any better words.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;And the other thing. A friend of mine works for Moody and Baker Engineering. On my recommendation, he&#039;s agreed to give you an internship this summer. You&#039;ll work for them half time, and half time for me. You can stay in my guest room. Interested?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, I spent a few weeks at home before returning to San Antonio for the summer.  My parents were exfremely unhappy about all this. They thought Ashley was using me for something. They didn&#039;t know what, but they didn&#039;t trust her motives. They also didn’t like the fact that I would be living with an older woman. It didn&#039;t matter that I said we&#039;d never had sex. In the end, though, I convinced them that a deal was a deal, and I couldn’t back out. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monday through Wednesday, I&#039;d get up, we&#039;d have breakfast together, and I&#039;d drive the Civic to M&amp;amp;B. I learned a lot about what engineering is really like. While the calculations I was learning at school are a part, it&#039;s really about solving the clients&#039; problems, within their budget, site constraints and building codes. That and documenting everything you do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wednesday afternoons, Thursdays and Fridays were spent as Ashley&#039;s gofer and A/V squad. I&#039;d also occasionally be her date for business dinners and other social functions. She taught me a lot that I would never have learned at the university: how to read people, how to read a contract, how to cook, how to choose a good wine, how to dress well. It was quite an education. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also helped out at her ranch in the Texas Hill Country, clearing brush or restoring the old stone ranchhouse. She was trying to exterminate invasive salt cedar from her property, and it was a lot of hard work. One day, I looked down at some ground still damp from last nights thunderstorms, and saw what appeared to be a big cat track. She said it was a bobcat. I wasn’t so sure. It was huge. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I stopped at an Army/Navy store the next day and bought a Ka-Bar. I knew I wouldn’t need it for a bobcat, and it wouldn’t help against a puma. Still, carrying it made me feel better when we were clearing brush. It made her laugh. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In early June, my parents came up for a weekend to meet Ashley. She must have made a good impression, because their disapproval faded after that. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As I got to know her, I occasionally caught glimpses behind the facade she showed the    world. She wasn&#039;t the strong, self-sufficient businesswoman she liked people to think she was. Every once in a while, she&#039;d see a happy couple, and a lonely, wistful look would come over her face for just an instant. Once in a great while, she&#039;d start flirt with me, stop suddenly and deny it ever happened.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that’s how I ended up at her ranch one night in mid June. After a wonderful dinner that we had cooked together, and more wine than I was used to, she started flirting with me. I expected her to stop like always, but she didn&#039;t. I suppose the wine also helped, but the next thing I knew, I was flat on my back on her four-post bed, buck naked. The old floor-to-ceiling doors were open, and the curtains fluttered in the warm evening breeze. She was kneeling over me, naked and half-illuminated by the moonlight and candles, saying, “Do you trust me?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yes,“ I said. Get a 20 year guy old somewhat drunk and very hot and bothered, and he’ll say yes to just about anything a good looking woman asks. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She took my wrists and stretched my hands up over my head and pinned them there.  She then straddled my thighs and wrapped one hand around my cock. “Comfy?” she asked as she kneaded with her strong fingers. I was too distracted to reply with anything but a low moan. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She dug her nails into the tender skin along the underside of my cock. I gasped. I was about to complain, but it felt incredible. She raised herself up onto her knees, shifted a bit, then impaled herself on me. She was hot, wet and tight. Hotter and tighter than anyone I had ever been with before. Not that I was very experienced. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I moaned again and closed my eyes. She lifted up again, and something sharp dragged against the top of my cock as she did so. I instantly sat up, or would have if my arms hadn’t been pinned down. She was way stronger than she looked. “What the fuck!” I yelled as I looked down. Two thin scratches ran the length of my cock, with beads of blood forming. “Why the heck did you do that? Let me go!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m afraid I can’t, Jake. Not anymore. If I did, I’d have to kill you. And I like you too much to do that.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sank back down, and her vaginal wetness stung in the scratches. “You see, Jake,” she said as she leaned forward, the candles on the nightstands shining on her face, “I’m not exactly human, and soon you won’t be either.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As she said this, her irises changed from blue to green-flecked gold. The changes progressed outwards from there. Her eyelids turned black, and the outer corners shifted upwards. Her nose grew broader, then longer as her upper lip became fleshier and her jaws extended. Her ears became thin, pointed, and migrated back and up. She sat up again, and her breasts shrank until they were mostly nipple. Two rows of dark spots appeared below them, then grew into additional nipples. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sat there for a moment, with her free hand resting on my belly. Each finger ended in a sharp, hooked claw. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m a shape shifter, a were-cougar. And now you will be too. It’s transmitted by bodily fluids. I could have bitten you, but I thought this would be more … fun. With my vashinal wetnesh in your bloodshtream, you will be a were-cougar, thoo!” She smiled, showing off long fangs and sharp incisors.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know, I wash thinking abouth thath Craigthlith ad.” Her diction was becoming slurred as her mouth became more and more catlike. “You really shoulth be carefull whath you athk for, jutht in cathe you geth ith!” By this time, he body was covered in pale brown fur, and her internal temperature became even hotter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My mind was torn between horny and horror. I wanted to throw her off me and run. I wanted her to keep fucking me. I didn’t want to come and release the only control I had left. I couldn’t wait until I did. I was on the edge of panic when I finally orgasmed, my cock pulsing and throbbing inside what was now almost entirely a cougar. Only a few faint vestiges of humanity were still visible - fingers on her front paws, and a deeper brainpan than normal for a feline. She lay down on me and pushed her nose into my face. Her tail flicked between my ankles. Her whiskers tickled as she rubbed her cheeks on mine. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Scent marking me, claiming me as yours? I asked. She lifted her head, and nodded. All of a sudden, I had to laugh. She tilted her head as if to ask, “What?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I just came in a pussy pussy!” She crinkled her nose at me, and proceeded to lick my face with her very rough tongue. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The next morning, I woke up with my cock in something hot, wet and vibrating. It took me a minute to realize what was going on - the most incredible blowjob I’d ever gotten. She was purring! Between that and the incredible things her coarse tongue did to me, I quickly exploded into her mouth. She cleaned me off with her tongue, then licked her lips.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“There is a serious advantage to being one of the smaller cats,” she said. “Lions, tigers and leopards get all the press, but they can’t give purr jobs! Come on, breakfast is ready. Let’s eat while I explain.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Breakfast was delicious, as usual. As we ate, she told me that she had been an ROTC cadet until she was diagnosed with advanced hepatitis during her sophomore year. She lost her ROTC scholarship, and would have had to withdraw from Murch if one of her doctors hadn&#039;t taken her under his wing. Soon after, she let him seduce her, only to find herself being forced by a cougar. He was apologetic after, and taught her how to control her inner beast, but she never again let her guard down around him. Until the previous night, had restricted herself to a few one-night stands with other were-folk. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know,” she said, “I wasn’t joking last night. When I said I’d have to kill you. It’s one of the few laws all weres have in common. Anyone who knows we exist must become one of us, or die. Had I let you go, the local werewolf pack would hunt us down. They&#039;d kill me, and rape you, making you one of them.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She stopped spreading jam on her toast and put it down. “I’m sorry, Jake, truly I am. It’s just that I’ve been so alone. I can’t undo what I did to you last night. I wish I could have given you a choice.” I didn’t know what to say, so I said nothing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After that, we went our separate ways to work: me to my internship, her to her office. Later, I returned to the ranch to find her sitting on the patio, with wet eyes. I wasn’t yet sure how I felt about what she had done to me, but I still cared for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I sat next to her, and she said, “After Dr. Hennessey changed me, I felt like I had been raped. Yes, the sex was completely consensual, but what came with it… was very much like a rape. And now, I&#039;ve done the same thing to you. I feel so guilty. Can you forgive me?&amp;quot; She looked so miserable, so apologetic, that I took her in my arms, and kissed her tears away. Eventually, we were kissing, then she made love to me with an abandon that can only come from denying yourself for fifteen years. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then something she had said clicked. “You had unprotected sex with me, and you have hepatitis?” I almost screamed it at her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She laughed at me. That made me even madder. She actually laughed at me. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I turned you into a fucking werecat, and you’re worried about hepatitis?” She continued more quietly. “Jake, The virus can’t survive in a felid body, and most cougar diseases can’t survive in humans. About the only thing we have to worry about are rabies and toxoplasmosis. Avoid rabid animals, don‘t eat rats and wash your hands after changing a litter box, and you don‘t really have to worry about infectious disease at all.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the next several weeks like that. She’d wake me with a blowjob or sex, we’d go off to work, then come home for more. In between, she told me what to expect on the next night of the full moon. Eventually, she said, I’d be able to control it and change at will regardless of the moon phase, but for the next six months or so, I should plan on spending full moon nights at the ranch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During that time, I felt something strange building within me. Some sort of tension, or static electric energy. It felt like every nerve I had was buzzing with fear or with anticipation, I couldn’t tell which. Probably both. She enrolled me in meditation and tai chi lessons, and that was the only thing that really eased the itch. Well, that and sex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The morning of the full moon, I woke up before she did for a change. I was near bursting with the tension within me. I figured it was time to pay her back for all the wakeup calls she had given me. I slowly spread Ashley’s legs apart, then kissed the slit between them, at first gently, then with more and more pressure as her labia swelled and dampened. I licked and sucked and prodded with my tongue until I felt her spasm. Before the last wave crested, I flipped her on to her stomach, then took her from behind. Before long, she came again with me inside her. It felt so good that I followed shortly thereafter. I collapsed on top of her as we basked in the orgasm afterglow. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She lifted herself up on one elbow to look over her shoulder at me, smiled, and kissed me. Then she reached over to her handbag and pulled out a compact. She opened it up and held it so I could see myself in the mirror. My brown eyes had lightened to cougar gold. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I called in sick to my internship, and we spent most of the day clearing salt cedar. By the end of the day, I felt like I was holding a live wire or something. My whole body was buzzing with energy. I heard a flutter behind me, and by reflex turned to look. My eye was immediately caught by the motion of a sparrow flying overhead. After it passed, I smelled its scent wafting down. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All day, I was being distracted by the local wildlife. All the time I had helped her on her ranch, I had never noticed how much of it there was. Now, every rustle, every scent on the breeze, every glimpse of motion caught my attention. Late in the afternoon, we spooked a rabbit, and I almost started chasing it. Ashley laughed, put her arms around me and said “I’ve done that, too. Come on, it’s almost time.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the sun getting low in the sky, she led me to a secluded clearing overlooking the creek. We undressed each other, then sat down to watch the sunset. It made everything glow, including her body. Her scent filled my nostrils. I reached for her. She put her arms around me, gave me a hug, and said, “Not now. Later, I promise.” She was still holding me as the nervous tension inside me crescendoed. I looked behind us, and saw the moon rising over the hill. “It’s okay, baby. I’m here with you. I’ll be with you.” She kept murmuring reassurances in my ear as the tension became unbearable.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It started in my groin where she had - is infected the right word? - well, infected me. My cock and balls retreated backwards between my legs. My cock was slowly being enveloped by a sheath. As I watched, the tip disappeared inside it. I felt pressure inside my fingertips. My nails grew thicker and longer and hooked into wickedly sharp claws. Then I felt the same thing in my toes. My toenails became claws, then my toes bent upwards as my foot bones lengthened. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My canine teeth expanded in girth and length. I ran my tongue over my new fangs. The pressure grew to fill my lower face. I felt my jaws extending forward, pushed out by the pressure within. My nose broadened and suddenly, I was overwhelmed by the scents surrounding me. I focused on Ashley’s scent. Her odor, her words whispered in my ears, her arms around me kept me grounded, sane, as my ears were dragged backwards and upwards through my skull. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It’s hard to describe what happened after that. It’s not that I don’t remember what happened. I can’t find the words to describe it. My best guess is, as the changes penetrated into my brain, I lost the use of language. Ashley’s murmured reassurances became a soft buzz. This scared me more than anything else had. Was I losing my identity, the memories and skills and experiences that made me who I am? Until then, I could think of myself as a human in a cougar body. Now I was losing that, too,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The pressure increased and the changes to my arms, leg and head progressed. Finally, with a sensation somewhere between a full-body toothache and a mind-blowing, toe-curling orgasm, the rest of my body followed. I was a cougar.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You know the feeling of release when the last item of clothing comes off, and you&#039;re finally fully naked for the first time with a new lover? That&#039;s what it felt like. I felt free. Unfettered.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I tried to run, but my four legs betrayed me. I couldn’t coordinate them, and fell painfully on my snout. Ashley let me go, and got down on her hands and knees. She shifted into a cougar herself. It was the first time I got to watch her shift since that night weeks before. I had been a bit distracted then. I was amazed by how fluid it looked, compared to how my change felt. After I regained my feet, she led me into the bushes. I stumbled at first, but soon walking on four legs seemed natural. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the night prowling her ranch. She taught me how to walk, run, pounce, and climb on four legs instead of two, how to use night vision, smell and hearing to navigate instead of stumbling around in the dark. Towards dawn, she brought down a yearling buck, and I tasted hot blood for the first time. It was wonderful. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then she led me back to the clearing by the creek where we had first changed. We made love in the dawn sunlight as we regained our humanity. Along with everything else that summer, she taught me how to be a cougar and a man, without losing my identity in the cougar mind.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;By [[User_talk:Triskelelynx|Triskelelynx]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No matter how many times I checked my math, the answer came out the same. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I had flunked my Calculus II mid-term exam so badly that, even if I got straight 100s for the rest of the semester, my final grade would be too low to keep my scholarship. Without it, there was no way my family could pay my tuition at a private liberal arts college like Murchison U.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My roommate Scott heard me groan, and asked what was wrong. I explained, and he let out a low whistle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;That’s a serious bummer!” he said. “What are you going to do?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Transfer to State, I guess.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Damn. You‘ve been a good roommate.” He went back to studying, then a few minutes later said, “You need a cougar.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A what?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A cougar. A rich woman to pay your bills. The female equivalent of a sugar daddy.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Oh, stop it!&amp;quot; I yelled, &amp;quot;You want me to prostitute myself to pay for college? That&#039;s just wrong! And besides, how the heck could I attract a woman like that?” I was after all, a scrawny, somewhat nerdy engineering major.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He just smiled and went back to his studying, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A few days later, he flashed me a big grin and showed me an ad on Craigslist. “Cougar wanted,” it said. “Nice but shy SWM, NS, college student seeks sugar mommy for …” I didn’t bother reading the rest. &amp;quot;Come one!” I said. “Did you do that?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yep! And you have a response already!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It took him a few days to convince me to let him reply for me. The next day, he told me that I had a lunch date Saturday at a Riverwalk café. I almost didn’t go, but I figured, what did I have to lose? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that is how I met Ashley. I was wearing my best jeans, a halfway decent button-down shirt, and a tie. I was a few minutes late. I’d like to say it was because I missed a bus connection, but it was mostly because I had trouble getting the knot in my tie right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Years ago, the City of San Antonio made plans to bury the San Antonio River through downtown. A group of influential women saw that it could be an amenity and convinced the city to do otherwise. Now it is an entertainment district one level below the street. The river has walkways on both sides, lined with restaurants, bars and shops.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked down the steps from the street and saw a slender woman sitting at a table set for two. Her back was to me, so my first impression was tawny blond hair gathered in a silver clip at neck level, and hanging about halfway down the back of her white silk blouse. She was wearing a denim skirt just barely too short and tight for modesty, and cowboy boots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked up to the table, and she smiled up at me. “Are you Jake?” she asked. Her eyes matched her turquoise pendant. She was somewhere in her mid-thirties, and very attractive, but not quite gorgeous. That was a relief. I always get awkward and tongue-tied around beautiful women. “Yes, ma’am,” I replied. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Then, have a seat. And lose the tie,” she said. “And don’t call me ma’am.” To be honest, I was glad she told me to take the tie off. I hated wearing ties. To me, they are like inverted nooses. Also, it was getting rather warm in the sun. We spent a while in small talk until the waiter came over. She ordered for me, something Italian sounding and a glass of wine. I started to say that I was under 21, but she silenced me with a look. The waiter certainly looked like he wasn’t going to ask any questions. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The meal was delicious. It was a mixture of fresh vegetables, pasta and steak in a red sauce. Not a jar sauce you’d buy down in the HEB supermarket, but a sauce made from freshly diced tomatoes, herbs and red wine. We chatted some more while finishing out meals. After the waiter cleared the plates, her demeanor changed. Suddenly all business, she asked, “So, Jake, what do you want from me?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Instantly, a cat got my tongue. I had no idea what to say. Eventually, I managed to tell her the story about failing my Calc mid-term, losing my scholarship and my roommate’s solution. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“So, you’re looking for someone to pay your way through college,” she said. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I don’t know what I’m looking for, ma’am. It‘s just that I like Murch U. I want to finish my degree there, and I don‘t know how to pay for it. When Scott said he had set up the date with you, I figured I could always say no if I felt uncomfortable about it. At worst, I would be out an afternoon and the price of lunch.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“What’s Scott’s phone number?” she asked, pulling a high-end smartphone from her purse. I told her, and she called him. First, she verified that Scott had indeed placed the Craigslist ad and set me up. Then, she asked all sorts of questions about me like she was checking a job candidate’s references. She thanked Scott, put her phone in her purse, then looked at me for several long, awkward minutes. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m actually a Murch alumna, class of ‘99, so I understand why you’d want to stay. I like you, Jake. I’ll tell you what. You’re tuition is paid through the end of the semester, right? Let’s consider that your probation. If we get along, you work hard for me, and you pull up your Calc grade as best you can, I’ll think about sponsoring you for the fall semester. In return, you&#039;ll work part time as my personal assistant. If it doesn‘t work out, well, I know someone in the Admissions Office at State.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, that is how it started. A few afternoons each week, I helped her with her really estate business. I set up A/V and computer equipment at her business meetings, did internet research, ran errands for her, and was her general all-around gofer. Occasionally, I provided company for dinner, but the one thing I was both hoping for and afraid of never happened. She never came on to me. In fact, she only touched me a handful of times, never flirted and rarely even joked about sex. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She called me into her office after finals were over. She said, “You know, you’ve been a big heelp. I would have lost my shirt on the Boerne property if you hadn&#039;t spotted that structural problem. Also, I talked to Dr. Drake, and he said you managed to pull off a B-. He was impressed, given your midterm grade. So, you fulfilled your part of our bargain. Now, whatever you decide about college, I’d like to keep you on. Do you still want to go to Murch next year?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I nodded my head yes. “Good” She put a piece of paper in front of me. “This is a contract. It says that I will pay your tuition for the fall semester. In return, you agree to work as my personal assistant. You will also maintain a B average, and add a minor in business administration to your engineering classes. After graduation, you&#039;ll make donations to Murch&#039;s financial aid endowment. If you do not satisfy these terms, you will repay me. Is that acceptable?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Um, do you have a pen I could use?” I signed the contract, and she signed her name beside mine. Then, she pulled out an envelope and handed it to me. Inside was a check for the fall semester’s tuition, minus the financial aid I had managed to keep. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You’ll still be responsible for room, board and fees,” she said. I wasn’t about to complain. “Now, two more things. If you are going to be my assistant next year, you’ll need more reliable transportation than the bus or your bike.” She handed me another envelope. Inside it were the keys, title, registration and insurance for an older Civic. “Consider it your bonus for helping me get that contract. I assume you can drive a manual? No? Well then, I’ll just have to teach you!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh, wow! Thanks!&amp;quot; I spluttered, at a loss for any better words.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;And the other thing. A friend of mine works for Baker Engineering. On my recommendation, he&#039;s agreed to give you an internship this summer. You&#039;ll work for them half time, and half time for me. You can stay in my guest room. Interested?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, I spent a few weeks at home before returning to San Antonio for the summer.  My parents were exfremely unhappy about all this. They thought Ashley was using me for something. They didn&#039;t know what, but they didn&#039;t trust her motives. They also didn’t like the fact that I would be living with an older woman. It didn&#039;t matter that I said we&#039;d never had sex. In the end, though, I convinced them that a deal was a deal, and I couldn’t back out. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Each morning, I&#039;d get up, we&#039;d have breakfast together, and I&#039;d drive the Civic to Baker. I learned a lot about what engineering is really like. While the calculations I was learning at school are a part, it&#039;s really about finding a solution to the clients need, within their budget, site constraints and building codes. That and documenting everything you do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Afternoons were spent as Ashley&#039;s gofer and A/V squad, and occasionally her date for business dinners and other social functions. She taught me a lot that I would never have learned at the university: how to read people, how to read a legal document, how to cook, how to choose a good wine, how to dress well. It was quite an education. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also helped out at her ranch in the Texas Hill Country, clearing brush or restoring the old stone ranchhouse. She was trying to exterminate invasive salt cedar from her ranch, and it was a lot of hard work. One day, I looked down at some ground still damp from last nights thunderstorms, and saw what appeared to be a big cat track. She said it was a bobcat. I wasn’t so sure. It was huge. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I went to the Army/Navy store the next day and bought a Ka-Bar. I knew I wouldn’t need it for a bobcat, and it wouldn’t help against a puma. Still, carrying it made me feel better when we were clearing brush. It made her laugh. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Towards the end of May, my parents came up for a weekend to meet Ashley. She must have made a good impression, because their disapproval faded after that. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As I got to know her, I occasionally caught glimpses behind the facade she showed the    world. She wasn&#039;t the strong, self-sufficient businesswoman she liked people to think she was. Every once in a while, she&#039;d see a happy couple, and a lonely, wistful look would come over her face for just an instant. Once in a great while, she&#039;d start flirt with me, stop suddenly and deny it ever happened.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that’s how I ended up at her ranch one night in early June. After a wonderful dinner that we had cooked together, and more wine than I was used to, she started getting all flirty with me. I expected her to stop like always, but she didn&#039;t. I suppose the wine also helped, but the next thing I knew, I was flat on my back on her four-post bed, buck naked. The old floor-to-ceiling doors were open, and the curtains fluttered in the warm eveningbreeze. She was kneeling over me, naked and half-illuminated by the moonlight and candles, saying, “Do you trust me?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yes,“ I said. Get a 20 year guy old somewhat drunk and very hot and bothered, and he’ll say yes to just about anything a good looking woman asks. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She took my wrists and stretched my hands up over my head and pinned them there.  She then straddled my thighs and wrapped one hand around my cock. “Comfy?” she asked as she kneaded with her strong fingers. I was too distracted to reply with anything but a low moan. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She dug her nails into the tender skin along the underside of my cock. I gasped. I was about to complain, but rather than deflating, I had never been harder. She raised herself up onto her knees, shifted a bit, then impaled herself on me. She was hot, wet and tight. Hotter and tighter than anyone I had ever been with before. Not that I was very experienced. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I moaned again and closed my eyes. She lifted up again, and something sharp dragged against the top of my cock as she did so. I instantly sat up, or would have if my arms hadn’t been pinned down. She was wa stronger than she looked. “What the fuck!” I yelled as I looked down. Two thin scratches ran the length of my cock, with beads of blood forming. “Why the heck did you do that? Let me go!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m afraid I can’t, Jake. Not anymore. If I did, I’d have to kill you. And I like you too much to do that.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sank back down, and her vaginal wetness stung in the scratches. “You see, Jake,” she said as she leaned forward, the candles on the nightstands shining on her face, “I’m not exactly human, and soon you won’t be either.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As she said this, her irises changed from blue to green-flecked gold. The changes progressed outwards from there. Her eyelids turned black, and the outer corners shifted upwards. Her nose grew broader, then longer as her upper lip became fleshier and her jaws extended. Her ears became thin, pointed, and migrated back and up. She sat up again, and her breasts shrank until they were mostly nipple. Two rows of dark spots appeared below them, then grew into additional nipples. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sat there for a moment, with her hands resting on my belly. Each finger ended in a sharp, hooked claw. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m a shape shifter, a were-cougar. And now you will be too. It’s transmitted by bodily fluids. I could have bitten you, but I thought this would be more … fun. With my vashinal wetnesh in your bloodshtream, you will be a were-cougar, thoo!” She smiled, showing off long fangs and sharp incisors.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know, I wash thinking abouth thath Craigthlith ad.” Her diction was becoming slurred as her mouth became more and more catlike. “You really shoulth be carefull whath you athk for, jutht in cathe you geth ith!” By this time, he body was covered in pale brown fur, and her internal temperature became even hotter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My mind was torn. I wanted to throw her off me and run. I wanted her to keep fucking me. I didn’t want to come and release the only control I had left. I couldn’t wait until I did. I was on the edge of panic when I finally orgasmed, my cock pulsing and throbbing inside what was now almost entirely a cougar. Only a few faint vestiges of humanity were still visible - fingers on her front paws, and a deeper brainpan than normal for a feline. She lay down on me and pushed her nose into my face. Her tail flicked between my ankles. Her whiskers tickled as she rubbed her cheeks on mine. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Scent marking me, claiming me as yours? I asked. She lifted her head, and nodded. All of a sudden, I had to laugh. She tilted her head as if to ask, “What?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I just came in a pussy pussy!” She crinkled her nose at me, and proceeded to lick my face with her very rough tongue. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The next morning, I woke up with my cock in something hot, wet and vibrating. It took me a minute to realize what was going on - the most incredible blowjob I’d ever gotten. She was purring! Between that and the incredible things her coarse tongue did to me, I quickly exploded into her mouth. She cleaned me off with her tongue, then licked her lips.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“There is a serious advantage to being one of the smaller cats,” she said. “Lions, tigers and leopards get all the press, but they can’t give purr jobs! Come on, breakfast is ready. Let’s eat while I explain.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Breakfast was delicious, as usual. As we ate, she told me that she had been an ROTC cadet until she was diagnosed with advanced hepatitis during her sophomore year. She lost her ROTC scholarship, and would have had to withdraw from Murch if one of her doctors hadn&#039;t taken her under his wing. Soon after, she let him seduce her, only to find herself being forced by a cougar. He was apologetic after, and taught her how to control her inner beast, but she never again let her guard down around him. Until the previous night, had restricted herself to a few one-night stands with other were-folk. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know,” she said, “I wasn’t joking last night. When I said I’d have to kill you. It’s one of the few laws all weres have in common. Anyone who knows we exist must become one of us, or die. Had I let you go, we’d both be hunted down and killed.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She stopped spreading jam on her toast and put it down. “I’m sorry, Jake, truly I am. It’s just that I’ve been so alone. I can’t undo what I did to you last night. I wish I could have given you a choice.” I didn’t know what to say, so I said nothing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After that, we went our separate ways to work: me to my internship, her to her office. Later, I returned to the ranch to find her sitting on the patio, with wet eyes. I wasn’t sure yet how I felt about what she had done to me, but I still cared for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I sat next to her, and she said, “After Dr. Hennessey changed me, I felt like I had been raped. Yes, the sex was completely consensual, but what came with it… was very much like a rape. And now, I&#039;ve done the same thing to you. I feel so guilty. Can you forgive me?&amp;quot; She looked so miserable, so apologetic, that I took her in my arms, and kissed her tears away. Eventually, we were kissing, then she made love to me with an abandon that can only come from denying yourself for fifteen years. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then something she had said clicked. “You had unprotected sex with me, and you have hepatitis?” I almost screamed it at her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She laughed at me. That made me even madder. She actually laughed at me. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I turned you into a fucking werecat, and you’re worried about hepatitis?” She continued more quietly. “Jake, The virus can’t survive in a felid body, and most cougar diseases can’t survive in humans. About the only thing we have to worry about are rabies and toxoplasmosis. Avoid rabid animals, don‘t eat rats and wash your hands after changing a litter box, and you don‘t really have to worry about infectious disease at all.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the next several weeks like that. She’d wake me with a blowjob or sex, we’d go off to work, then come home for more. In between, she told me what to expect on the next night of the full moon. Eventually, she said, I’d be able to control it and change at will regardless of the moon phase, but for the next six months or so, I should plan on spending full moon nights at the ranch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During that time, I felt something strange building within me. Some sort of tension, or static electric energy. It felt like every nerve I had was buzzing with fear or with anticipation, I couldn’t tell which. Probably both. She enrolled me in meditation and tai chi lessons, and that was the only thing that really eased the itch. Well, that and sex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The morning of the full moon, I woke up before she did for a change. I was near bursting with the tension within me. I figured it was time to pay her back for all the wakeup calls she had given me. I slowly spread Ashley’s legs apart, then kissed the slit between them, at first gently, then with more and more pressure as her labia swelled and dampened. I licked and sucked and prodded with my tongue until I felt her spasm. Before the last wave crested, I flipped her on to her stomach, then took her from behind. Before long, she came again with me inside her. It felt so good that I followed shortly thereafter. I collapsed on top of her as we basked in the orgasm afterglow. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She lifted herself up on one elbow to look over her shoulder at me, smiled, and kissed me. Then she reached over to her handbag and pulled out a compact. She opened it up and held it so I could see myself in the mirror. My brown eyes had lightened to cougar gold. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I called in sick to my internship, and we spent most of the day clearing salt cedar. By the end of the day, I felt like I was holding a live wire or something. I heard a flutter behind me, and by reflex turned to look. My eye was immediately caught by the motion of a sparrow flying overhead. After it passed, I smelled its scent wafting down. All day, I was being distracted by the local wildlife. All the time I had helped her on her ranch, I had never noticed how much of it there was. Now, every rustle, every scent on the breeze, every glimpse of motion caught my attention. Late in the afternoon, we spooked a rabbit, and I almost started chasing it. Ashley laughed, put her arms around me and said “I’ve done that, too. Come on, it’s almost time.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the sun getting low in the sky, she led me to a secluded clearing overlooking the creek. We undressed each other, then sat down to watch the sunset. It made everything glow, including her body. Her scent filled my nostrils. I reached for her. She put her arms around me, gave me a hug, and said, “Not now. Later, I promise.” She was still holding me as the nervous tension inside me jumped in a sudden crescendo. I looked behind us, and saw the moon rising over the hill. “It’s okay, baby. I’m here with you. I’ll be with you.” She kept murmuring reassurances in my ear as the tension became unbearable.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It started in my groin where she had - is infected the right word? - well, infected me. My cock and balls retreated backwards between my legs. My cock was slowly being enveloped by a sheath. As I watched, the tip disappeared inside it. I felt pressure inside my fingertips. My nails grew thicker and longer and hooked into wickedly sharp claws. Then I felt the same thing in my toes. My toenails became claws, then my toes bent upwards as my foot bones lengthened. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My canine teeth expanded in girth and length. I ran my tongue over my new fangs. The pressure grew to fill my lower face. I felt my jaws extending forward, pushed out by the pressure within. My nose broadened and suddenly, I was overwhelmed by the scents surrounding me. I focused on Ashley’s scent. Her odor, her words whispered in my ears, her arms around me kept me grounded, sane, as my ears were dragged backwards and upwards through my skull. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It’s hard to describe what happened after that. It’s not that I don’t remember what happened. I can’t find the words to describe it. My best guess is, as the changes penetrated into my brain, I lost the use of language. Ashley’s murmured reassurances became a comfortimg buzz. This scared me more than anything else had. Was I losing my identity, the memories and skills and experiences that made me who I am? Until then, I could think of myself as a human in a cougar body. Now I was losing that, too,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The pressure increased and the changes to my arms, leg and head progressed Then, with a sensation somewhere between a full-body toothache and a mind-blowing, toe-curling orgasm, the rest of my body followed. I was a cougar.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You know the feeling of release when the last item of clothing comes off, and you&#039;re finally fully naked for the first time with a new lover? That&#039;s what it felt like. I felt free.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I tried to run, but my four legs betrayed me. I couldn’t coordinate them, and fell painfully on my snout. Ashley let me go, and got down on her hands and knees. She shifted into a cougar herself. It was the first time I got to watch her shift since that night weeks before. I had been a bit distracted then. I was amazed by how fluid it looked, compared to how my change felt. After I regained my feet, she led me into the bushes. I stumbled at first, but soon walking on four legs seemed natural. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the night prowling her ranch. She taught me how to walk, run, pounce, and climb on four legs instead of two, how to use night vision, smell and hearing to navigate instead of stumbling around in the dark. Towards dawn, she brought down a yearling buck, and I tasted hot blood for the first time. It was wonderful. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then she led me back to the clearing by the creek where we had first changed. We made love in the dawn sunlight as we regained our humanity. Along with everything else that summer, she taught me how to be a cougar and a man, without losing my identity in the cougar mind.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;By [[User_talk:Triskelelynx|Triskelelynx]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No matter how many times I checked my math, the answer came out the same. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I had flunked my Calculus II mid-term exam so badly that, even if I got straight 100s for the rest of the semester, my final grade would be too low to keep my scholarship. Without it, there was no way my family could pay my tuition at a private liberal arts college like Murchison U.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My roommate Scott heard me groan, and asked what was wrong. I explained, and he let out a low whistle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;That’s a serious bummer!” he said. “What are you going to do?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Transfer to State, I guess.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Damn. You‘ve been a good roommate.” He went back to studying, then a few minutes later said, “You need a cougar.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A what?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A cougar. A rich woman to pay your bills. The female equivalent of a sugar daddy.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Oh, stop it!&amp;quot; I yelled, &amp;quot;You want me to prostitute myself to pay for college? That&#039;s just wrong! And besides, how the heck could I attract a woman like that?” I was after all, a scrawny, somewhat nerdy engineering major.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He just smiled and went back to his reading, A few days later, he flashed me a big grin and showed me an ad on Craigslist. “Cougar wanted,” it said. “Nice but shy SWM, NS, college student seeks sugar mommy for …” I didn’t bother reading the rest. &amp;quot;Come one!” I said. “Did you place that ad?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yep! And you have a response already!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It took him a few days to convince me to let him reply for me. The next day, he told me that I had a lunch date Saturday at a Riverwalk café. I almost didn’t go, but I figured, what did I have to lose? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that is how I met Ashley. I was wearing my best jeans, a halfway decent button-down shirt, and a tie. I was a few minutes late. I’d like to say it was because I missed a bus connection, but it was mostly because I had trouble getting the knot in my tie right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Years ago, the City of San Antonio made plans to bury the San Antonio River through downtown. A group of influential women saw that it could be an amenity and convinced the city to do otherwise. Now it is an entertainment district one level below the street. The river has walkways on both sides, lined with restaurants, bars and shops.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked down the steps from the street and saw a slender woman sitting at a table set for two. Her back was to me, so my first impression was tawny blond hair gathered in a silver clip at neck level, and hanging about halfway down the back of her white silk blouse. She was wearing a denim skirt just barely too short and tight for modesty, and cowboy boots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked up to the table, and she smiled up at me. “Are you Jake?” she asked. Her eyes matched her turquoise pendant. She was somewhere in her mid-thirties, and very attractive, but not quite gorgeous. That was a relief. I always get awkward and tongue-tied around beautiful women. “Yes, ma’am,” I replied. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Then, have a seat. And lose the tie,” she said. “And don’t call me ma’am.” To be honest, I was glad she told me to take the tie off. I hated wearing ties. To me, they are like inverted nooses. Also, it was getting rather warm in the sun. We spent a while in small talk until the waiter came over. She ordered for me, something Italian sounding and a glass of wine. I started to say that I was under 21, but she silenced me with a look. The waiter certainly looked like he wasn’t going to ask any questions. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The meal was delicious. It was a mixture of fresh vegetables, pasta and steak in a red sauce. Not a jar sauce you’d buy down in the HEB supermarket, but a sauce made from freshly diced tomatoes, herbs and red wine. We chatted some more while finishing out meals. After the waiter cleared the plates, her demeanor changed. Suddenly all business, she asked, “So, Jake, what do you want from me?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Instantly, a cat got my tongue. I had no idea what to say. Eventually, I managed to tell her the story about failing my Calc mid-term, losing my scholarship and my roommate’s solution. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“So, you’re looking for someone to pay your way through college,” she said. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I don’t know what I’m looking for, ma’am. It‘s just that I like Murch U. I want to finish my degree there, and I don‘t know how to pay for it. When Scott said he had set up the date with you, I figured I could always say no if I felt uncomfortable about it. At worst, I would be out an afternoon and the price of lunch.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“What’s Scott’s phone number?” she asked, pulling a high-end smartphone from her purse. I told her, and she called him. First, she verified that Scott had indeed placed the Craigslist ad and set me up. Then, she asked all sorts of questions about me like she was checking a job candidate’s references. She thanked Scott, put her phone in her purse, then looked at me for several long, awkward minutes. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m actually a Murch alumna, class of ‘99, so I understand why you’d want to stay. I like you, Jake. I’ll tell you what. You’re tuition is paid through the end of the semester, right? Let’s consider that a your probation. If we get along, you work hard for me, and you pull up your Calc grade as best you can, I’ll think about sponsoring you for the fall semester. In return, you&#039;ll work part time as my personal assistant. If it doesn‘t work out, well, I know someone in the Admissions Office at State.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, that is how it started. A few afternoons each week, I helped her with her really estate business. I set up A/V and computer equipment at her business meetings, did internet research, ran errands for her, and was her general all-around gofer. Occasionally, I provided company for dinner, but the one thing I was both hoping for and afraid of never happened. She never came on to me. In fact, she only touched me a handful of times, never flirted and rarely even joked about sex. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She called me into her office after finals were over. She said, “You know, you’ve been a big heelp. I would have lost my shirt on the Boerne property if you hadn&#039;t spotted that structural problem. Also, I talked to Dr. Drake, and he said you managed to pull off a B-. He was impressed, given your midterm grade. So, you fulfilled your part of our bargain. Now, whatever you decide about college, I’d like to keep you on. Do you still want to go to Murch next year?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I nodded my head yes. “Good” She put a piece of paper in front of me. “This is a contract. It says that I will pay your tuition for the fall semester. In return, you agree to work as my personal assistant. You will also maintain a B average, and add a minor in business administration to your engineering classes. After graduation, you&#039;ll make donations to Murch&#039;s financial aid endowment. If you do not satisfy these terms, you will repay me. Is that acceptable?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Um, do you have a pen I could use?” I signed the contract, and she signed her name beside mine. Then, she pulled out an envelope and handed it to me. Inside was a check for the fall semester’s tuition, minus the financial aid I had managed to keep. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You’ll still be responsible for room, board and fees,” she said. I wasn’t about to complain. “Now, two more things. If you are going to be my assistant next year, you’ll need more reliable transportation than the bus or your bike.” She handed me another envelope. Inside it were the keys, title, registration and insurance for an older Civic. “Consider it your bonus for helping me get that contract. I assume you can drive a manual? No? Well then, I’ll just have to teach you!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh, wow! Thanks!&amp;quot; I spluttered, at a loss for any better words.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;And the other thing. A friend of mine works for Baker Engineering. On my recommendation, he&#039;s agreed to give you an internship this summer. You&#039;ll work for them half time, and half time for me. You can stay in my guest room. Interested?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, I spent a few weeks at home before returning to San Antonio for the summer.  My parents were exfremely unhappy about all this. They thought Ashley was using me for something. They didn&#039;t know what, but they didn&#039;t trust her motives. They also didn’t like the fact that I would be living with an older woman. It didn&#039;t matter that I said we&#039;d never had sex. In the end, though, I convinced them that a deal was a deal, and I couldn’t back out. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Each morning, I&#039;d get up, we&#039;d have breakfast together, and I&#039;d drive the Civic to Baker. I learned a lot about what engineering is really like. While the calculations I was learning at school are a part, it&#039;s really about finding a solution to the clients need, within their budget, site constraints and building codes. That and documenting everything you do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Afternoons were spent as Ashley&#039;s gofer and A/V squad, and occasionally her date for business dinners and other social functions. She taught me a lot that I would never have learned at the university: how to read people, how to read a legal document, how to cook, how to choose a good wine, how to dress well. It was quite an education. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also helped out at her ranch in the Texas Hill Country, clearing brush or restoring the old stone ranchhouse. She was trying to exterminate invasive salt cedar from her ranch, and it was a lot of hard work. One day, I looked down at some ground still damp from last nights thunderstorms, and saw what appeared to be a big cat track. She said it was a bobcat. I wasn’t so sure. It was huge. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I went to the Army/Navy store the next day and bought a Ka-Bar. I knew I wouldn’t need it for a bobcat, and it wouldn’t help against a puma. Still, carrying it made me feel better when we were clearing brush. It made her laugh. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Towards the end of May, my parents came up for a weekend to meet Ashley. She must have made a good impression, because their disapproval faded after that. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As I got to know her, I occasionally caught glimpses behind the facade she showed the    world. She wasn&#039;t the strong, self-sufficient businesswoman she liked people to think she was. Every once in a while, she&#039;d see a happy couple, and a lonely, wistful look would come over her face for just an instant. Once in a great while, she&#039;d start flirt with me, stop suddenly and deny it ever happened.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that’s how I ended up at her ranch one night in early June. After a wonderful dinner that we had cooked together, and more wine than I was used to, she started getting all flirty with me. I expected her to stop like always, but she didn&#039;t. I suppose the wine also helped, but the next thing I knew, I was flat on my back on her four-post bed, buck naked. The old floor-to-ceiling doors were open, and the curtains fluttered in the warm eveningbreeze. She was kneeling over me, naked and half-illuminated by the moonlight and candles, saying, “Do you trust me?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yes,“ I said. Get a 20 year guy old somewhat drunk and very hot and bothered, and he’ll say yes to just about anything a good looking woman asks. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She took my wrists and stretched my hands up over my head and pinned them there.  She then straddled my thighs and wrapped one hand around my cock. “Comfy?” she asked as she kneaded with her strong fingers. I was too distracted to reply with anything but a low moan. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She dug her nails into the tender skin along the underside of my cock. I gasped. I was about to complain, but rather than deflating, I had never been harder. She raised herself up onto her knees, shifted a bit, then impaled herself on me. She was hot, wet and tight. Hotter and tighter than anyone I had ever been with before. Not that I was very experienced. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I moaned again and closed my eyes. She lifted up again, and something sharp dragged against the top of my cock as she did so. I instantly sat up, or would have if my arms hadn’t been pinned down. She was wa stronger than she looked. “What the fuck!” I yelled as I looked down. Two thin scratches ran the length of my cock, with beads of blood forming. “Why the heck did you do that? Let me go!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m afraid I can’t, Jake. Not anymore. If I did, I’d have to kill you. And I like you too much to do that.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sank back down, and her vaginal wetness stung in the scratches. “You see, Jake,” she said as she leaned forward, the candles on the nightstands shining on her face, “I’m not exactly human, and soon you won’t be either.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As she said this, her irises changed from blue to green-flecked gold. The changes progressed outwards from there. Her eyelids turned black, and the outer corners shifted upwards. Her nose grew broader, then longer as her upper lip became fleshier and her jaws extended. Her ears became thin, pointed, and migrated back and up. She sat up again, and her breasts shrank until they were mostly nipple. Two rows of dark spots appeared below them, then grew into additional nipples. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sat there for a moment, with her hands resting on my belly. Each finger ended in a sharp, hooked claw. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m a shape shifter, a were-cougar. And now you will be too. It’s transmitted by bodily fluids. I could have bitten you, but I thought this would be more … fun. With my vashinal wetnesh in your bloodshtream, you will be a were-cougar, thoo!” She smiled, showing off long fangs and sharp incisors.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know, I wash thinking abouth thath Craigthlith ad.” Her diction was becoming slurred as her mouth became more and more catlike. “You really shoulth be carefull whath you athk for, jutht in cathe you geth ith!” By this time, he body was covered in pale brown fur, and her internal temperature became even hotter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My mind was torn. I wanted to throw her off me and run. I wanted her to keep fucking me. I didn’t want to come and release the only control I had left. I couldn’t wait until I did. I was on the edge of panic when I finally orgasmed, my cock pulsing and throbbing inside what was now almost entirely a cougar. Only a few faint vestiges of humanity were still visible - fingers on her front paws, and a deeper brainpan than normal for a feline. She lay down on me and pushed her nose into my face. Her tail flicked between my ankles. Her whiskers tickled as she rubbed her cheeks on mine. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Scent marking me, claiming me as yours? I asked. She lifted her head, and nodded. All of a sudden, I had to laugh. She tilted her head as if to ask, “What?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I just came in a pussy pussy!” She crinkled her nose at me, and proceeded to lick my face with her very rough tongue. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The next morning, I woke up with my cock in something hot, wet and vibrating. It took me a minute to realize what was going on - the most incredible blowjob I’d ever gotten. She was purring! Between that and the incredible things her coarse tongue did to me, I quickly exploded into her mouth. She cleaned me off with her tongue, then licked her lips.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“There is a serious advantage to being one of the smaller cats,” she said. “Lions, tigers and leopards get all the press, but they can’t give purr jobs! Come on, breakfast is ready. Let’s eat while I explain.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Breakfast was delicious, as usual. As we ate, she told me that she had been an ROTC cadet until she was diagnosed with advanced hepatitis during her sophomore year. She lost her ROTC scholarship, and would have had to withdraw from Murch if one of her doctors hadn&#039;t taken her under his wing. Soon after, she let him seduce her, only to find herself being forced by a cougar. He was apologetic after, and taught her how to control her inner beast, but she never again let her guard down around him. Until the previous night, had restricted herself to a few one-night stands with other were-folk. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know,” she said, “I wasn’t joking last night. When I said I’d have to kill you. It’s one of the few laws all weres have in common. Anyone who knows we exist must become one of us, or die. Had I let you go, we’d both be hunted down and killed.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She stopped spreading jam on her toast and put it down. “I’m sorry, Jake, truly I am. It’s just that I’ve been so alone. I can’t undo what I did to you last night. I wish I could have given you a choice.” I didn’t know what to say, so I said nothing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After that, we went our separate ways to work: me to my internship, her to her office. Later, I returned to the ranch to find her sitting on the patio, with wet eyes. I wasn’t sure yet how I felt about what she had done to me, but I still cared for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I sat next to her, and she said, “After Dr. Hennessey changed me, I felt like I had been raped. Yes, the sex was completely consensual, but what came with it… was very much like a rape. And now, I&#039;ve done the same thing to you. I feel so guilty. Can you forgive me?&amp;quot; She looked so miserable, so apologetic, that I took her in my arms, and kissed her tears away. Eventually, we were kissing, then she made love to me with an abandon that can only come from denying yourself for fifteen years. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then something she had said clicked. “You had unprotected sex with me, and you have hepatitis?” I almost screamed it at her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She laughed at me. That made me even madder. She actually laughed at me. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I turned you into a fucking werecat, and you’re worried about hepatitis?” She continued more quietly. “Jake, The virus can’t survive in a felid body, and most cougar diseases can’t survive in humans. About the only thing we have to worry about are rabies and toxoplasmosis. Avoid rabid animals, don‘t eat rats and wash your hands after changing a litter box, and you don‘t really have to worry about infectious disease at all.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the next several weeks like that. She’d wake me with a blowjob or sex, we’d go off to work, then come home for more. In between, she told me what to expect on the next night of the full moon. Eventually, she said, I’d be able to control it and change at will regardless of the moon phase, but for the next six months or so, I should plan on spending full moon nights at the ranch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During that time, I felt something strange building within me. Some sort of tension, or static electric energy. It felt like every nerve I had was buzzing with fear or with anticipation, I couldn’t tell which. Probably both. She enrolled me in meditation and tai chi lessons, and that was the only thing that really eased the itch. Well, that and sex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The morning of the full moon, I woke up before she did for a change. I was near bursting with the tension within me. I figured it was time to pay her back for all the wakeup calls she had given me. I slowly spread Ashley’s legs apart, then kissed the slit between them, at first gently, then with more and more pressure as her labia swelled and dampened. I licked and sucked and prodded with my tongue until I felt her spasm. Before the last wave crested, I flipped her on to her stomach, then took her from behind. Before long, she came again with me inside her. It felt so good that I followed shortly thereafter. I collapsed on top of her as we basked in the orgasm afterglow. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She lifted herself up on one elbow to look over her shoulder at me, smiled, and kissed me. Then she reached over to her handbag and pulled out a compact. She opened it up and held it so I could see myself in the mirror. My brown eyes had lightened to cougar gold. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I called in sick to my internship, and we spent most of the day clearing salt cedar. By the end of the day, I felt like I was holding a live wire or something. I heard a flutter behind me, and by reflex turned to look. My eye was immediately caught by the motion of a sparrow flying overhead. After it passed, I smelled its scent wafting down. All day, I was being distracted by the local wildlife. All the time I had helped her on her ranch, I had never noticed how much of it there was. Now, every rustle, every scent on the breeze, every glimpse of motion caught my attention. Late in the afternoon, we spooked a rabbit, and I almost started chasing it. Ashley laughed, put her arms around me and said “I’ve done that, too. Come on, it’s almost time.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the sun getting low in the sky, she led me to a secluded clearing overlooking the creek. We undressed each other, then sat down to watch the sunset. It made everything glow, including her body. Her scent filled my nostrils. I reached for her. She put her arms around me, gave me a hug, and said, “Not now. Later, I promise.” She was still holding me as the nervous tension inside me jumped in a sudden crescendo. I looked behind us, and saw the moon rising over the hill. “It’s okay, baby. I’m here with you. I’ll be with you.” She kept murmuring reassurances in my ear as the tension became unbearable.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It started in my groin where she had - is infected the right word? - well, infected me. My cock and balls retreated backwards between my legs. My cock was slowly being enveloped by a sheath. As I watched, the tip disappeared inside it. I felt pressure inside my fingertips. My nails grew thicker and longer and hooked into wickedly sharp claws. Then I felt the same thing in my toes. My toenails became claws, then my toes bent upwards as my foot bones lengthened. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My canine teeth expanded in girth and length. I ran my tongue over my new fangs. The pressure grew to fill my lower face. I felt my jaws extending forward, pushed out by the pressure within. My nose broadened and suddenly, I was overwhelmed by the scents surrounding me. I focused on Ashley’s scent. Her odor, her words whispered in my ears, her arms around me kept me grounded, sane, as my ears were dragged backwards and upwards through my skull. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It’s hard to describe what happened after that. It’s not that I don’t remember what happened. I can’t find the words to describe it. My best guess is, as the changes penetrated into my brain, I lost the use of language. Ashley’s murmured reassurances became a comfortimg buzz. This scared me more than anything else had. Was I losing my identity, the memories and skills and experiences that made me who I am? Until then, I could think of myself as a human in a cougar body. Now I was losing that, too,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The pressure increased and the changes to my arms, leg and head progressed Then, with a sensation somewhere between a full-body toothache and a mind-blowing, toe-curling orgasm, the rest of my body followed. I was a cougar.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You know the feeling of release when the last item of clothing comes off, and you&#039;re finally fully naked for the first time with a new lover? That&#039;s what it felt like. I felt free.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I tried to run, but my four legs betrayed me. I couldn’t coordinate them, and fell painfully on my snout. Ashley let me go, and got down on her hands and knees. She shifted into a cougar herself. It was the first time I got to watch her shift since that night weeks before. I had been a bit distracted then. I was amazed by how fluid it looked, compared to how my change felt. After I regained my feet, she led me into the bushes. I stumbled at first, but soon walking on four legs seemed natural. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the night prowling her ranch. She taught me how to walk, run, pounce, and climb on four legs instead of two, how to use night vision, smell and hearing to navigate instead of stumbling around in the dark. Towards dawn, she brought down a yearling buck, and I tasted hot blood for the first time. It was wonderful. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then she led me back to the clearing by the creek where we had first changed. We made love in the dawn sunlight as we regained our humanity. Along with everything else that summer, she taught me how to be a cougar and a man, without losing my identity in the cougar mind.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;By [[User_talk:Triskelelynx|Triskelelynx]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No matter how many times I checked my math, the answer came out the same. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I had flunked my Calculus II mid-term exam so badly that, even if I got straight 100s for the rest of the semester, my final grade would be too low to keep my scholarship. Without it, there was no way my family could pay my tuition at a private liberal arts college like Murchison U.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My roommate Scott heard me groan, and asked what was wrong. I explained, and he let out a low whistle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;That’s a serious bummer!” he said. “What are you going to do?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Transfer to State, I guess.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Damn. You‘ve been a good roommate.” He went back to studying, then a few minutes later said, “You need a cougar.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A what?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A cougar. A rich woman to pay your bills. The female equivalent of a sugar daddy.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Oh, stop it!&amp;quot; I yelled, &amp;quot;You want me to prostitute myself to pay for college? That&#039;s just wrong! And besides, how the heck could I attract a woman like that?” I was after all, a scrawny, somewhat nerdy engineering major.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He just smiled and went back to his reading, A few days later, he flashed me a big grin and showed me an ad on Craigslist. “Cougar wanted,” it said. “Nice but shy SWM, NS, college student seeks sugar mommy for …” I didn’t bother reading the rest. &amp;quot;Come one!” I said. “Did you place that ad?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yep! And you have a response already!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It took him a few days to convince me to let him reply for me. The next day, he told me that I had a lunch date Saturday at a Riverwalk café. I almost didn’t go, but I figured, what did I have to lose? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that is how I met Ashley. I was wearing my best jeans, a halfway decent button-down shirt, and a tie. I was a few minutes late. I’d like to say it was because I missed a bus connection, but it was mostly because I had trouble getting the knot in my tie right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Years ago, the City of San Antonio made plans to bury the San Antonio river through downtown. A group of influential women saw that it could be a amenity and convinced the city to do otherwise. Now it is an entertainment district one level below the street. The river has walkways on both sides, lined with restaurants, bars and shops. I walked down the steps and saw a slender woman sitting at a table set for two. Her back was to me, so my first impression was dirty blond hair gathered in a silver clip at neck level, and hanging about halfway down the back of her white silk blouse. She was wearing a denim skirt just barely too short and tight for modesty, and cowboy boots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked up to the table, and she smiled up at me. “Are you Jake?” she asked. Her turquoise pendant matched the color of her eyes. She was somewhere in her mid-thirties, and very attractive, but not quite gorgeous. That was a relief. I always get awkward and tongue-tied around beautiful women. “Yes, ma’am,” I replied. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Then, have a seat. And lose the tie,” she said. “And don’t call me ma’am.” To be honest, I was glad she told me to take the tie off. I hated wearing ties. To me, they are like inverted nooses. Also, it was getting rather warm in the sun. We spent a while in small talk, and then the waiter came over. She ordered for me, something Italian sounding and a glass of wine. I started to say that I was under 21, but she silenced me with a look. The waiter certainly looked like he wasn’t going to ask any questions. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The meal was delicious. It was a mixture of fresh vegetables, pasta and steak in a red sauce. Not a jar sauce you’d buy down in the HEB supermarket, but a sauce made from freshly diced tomatoes, herbs and red wine. We chatted some more while finishing out meals. After the waiter cleared the plates, her demeanor changed. Suddenly all business, she asked, “So, Jake, what do you want from me?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Instantly, a cat got my tongue. I had no idea what to say. Eventually, I managed to tell her the story about failing my Calc mid-term, losing my scholarship and my roommate’s solution. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“So, you’re looking for someone to pay your way through college,” she said. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I don’t know what I’m looking for, ma’am. It‘s just that I like Murch U. I want to finish my degree there, and I don‘t know how to pay for it. When Scott said he‘d set up the date for me, I figured I could always say no if I felt uncomfortable about it. The worst I would be out an afternoon and the price of my lunch.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“What’s Scott’s phone number?” she asked, pulling a high-end smartphone from her purse. I told her, and she called him. First, she verified that Scott had indeed placed the Craigslist ad and set me up. Then, it sounded like she was checking a job candidate’s references. She thanked Scott, put her phone in her purse, then looked at me for several long, awkward minutes. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m actually a Murch alumna, class of ‘89, so I understand why you’d want to stay. I like you, Jake. I’ll tell you what. You’re tuition is paid through the end of the semester, right? Let’s consider that a your probation. If we get along, and you work hard for me, and pull up your math grade as best you can, I’ll think about sponsoring you for the fall semester. In return, you&#039;ll work for me part time as my personal assistant. If it doesn‘t work out, well, I know someone in the Admissions Office at State.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, that is how it started. A few afternoons each week, I helped her with her really estate business. I set up A/V and computer equipment at her business meetings, did internet research, ran errands for her, and was her general all-around gofer. Occasionally, I provided company for dinner, but the one thing I was both hoping for and afraid of never happened. She never invited me to her bedroom. In fact, she only touched me a handful of times, never flirted and rarely even joked about sex. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She called me into her office after finals were over. She said, “You know, you’ve been a good worker. I would have lost my short on the Boerne property if you hadn&#039;t spotted that structural problem. Also, I talked to Dr. Drake, and he said you managed to pull off a B-. He was impressed, given your midterm grade. So, you fulfilled your part of our bargain. Now, whatever you decide about college, I’d like to keep you on. Do you still want to go to Murch next year?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I nodded my head yes. “Good” She put a piece of paper in front of me. “This is a contract. It says that I will pay your tuition for the fall semester. In return, you agree to work as my personal assistant. You will also maintain a B average, and add a minor in business administration to your engineering classes. Also, within ten years of graduation, you will find a student in a similar position to yourself, and help them as I will be helping you. If you do not satisfy these terms, you will repay me. Is that acceptable?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Um, do you have a pen I could use?” I signed the contract, and she signed her name beside mine. Then, she pulled out an envelope and handed it to me. Inside was a check for the fall semester’s tuition, minus the financial aid I had managed to keep. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You’ll still be responsible for room, board and fees,” she said. I wasn’t about to complain. “Now, two more things. If you are going to be my assistant next year, you’ll need more reliable transportation than the bus or your bike.” She handed me another envelope. Inside it were the keys, title, registration and insurance for an older Civic. “Consider it your bonus for helping me get that contract. I assume you can drive a manual? No? Well then, I’ll just have to teach you!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh, wow! Thanks!&amp;quot; I spluttered, at a loss for any better words.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;And the other thing. A friend of mine works for Baker Engineering. On my recommendation, he&#039;s agreed to give you a summer internship. You&#039;ll work for them half time, and half time for me. You can stay in my guest room. Interested?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, I spent a few weeks at home before returning to San Antonio for the summer.  My parents were exfremely unhappy about all this. They thought Ashley was using me for something. They didn&#039;t know what, but they didn&#039;t trust her motives. They also didn’t like the fact that I would be living with an older woman. It didn&#039;t matter that I said we&#039;d never had sex. In the end, though, I convinced them that a deal was a deal, and I couldn’t back out. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Each morning, I&#039;d get up, we&#039;d have breakfast together, and I&#039;d drive the Civic to Baker. After lunch, I&#039;d drive to wherever Ashley needed me. At Baker, I learned a lot about what engineering is really like. While the calculations I was learning at school are a part, it&#039;s really about finding a solution to the clients need, within their budget, site constraints and building codes. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Afternoons were spent as Ashley&#039;s gofer and A/V squad, and occasionally her date for dinners and other work related social functions. From her, I learned a lot that I would never have learned at the university: how to read people, how to read a legal document, how to cook, how to choose a good wine, how to dress well. It was quite an education. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also helped out at her ranch in the Texas Hill Country, clearing brush or restoring the old stone ranch house. She was trying to exterminate invasive salt cedar from her ranch, and it was a lot of hard work. One day, I looked down at some ground still damp from the rain a few days before, and saw what appeared to be a big cat track. She said it was a bobcat. I wasn’t so sure. It looked awfully big. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I went to the Army/Navy store the next day and bought a Ka-Bar. I knew I wouldn’t need it for a bobcat, and it wouldn’t help against a puma. Still, carrying it made me feel better when we were clearing brush. It made her laugh. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Towards the end of May, my parents came up for a weekend to meet Ashley. She must have made a good impression, because their disapproval faded after that. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As I got to know her, I occasionally caught glimpses behind the facade she showed the world. She wasn&#039;t the strong, independent, self-sufficient businesswoman she liked people to think she was. Every once in a while, she&#039;d see a happy couple, and a lonely, wistful look would come over her face for just an instant. Once in a great while, she&#039;d start flirt with me, stop suddenly and deny it ever happened.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that’s how I ended up at her ranch one night in early June. After a wonderful dinner that we had cooked together, and more wine than I was used to, she started getting all flirty with me. I expected her to stop like always, but she didn&#039;t. I suppose the wine also helped, but the next thing I knew, I was flat on my back on her four-post bed, buck naked. The old floor-to-ceiling doors were open, and the curtains fluttered in the warm breeze. She was kneeling over me, naked and half-illuminated by the full moon’s light and candlelight, saying, “Do you trust me?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yes,“ I said. Get a 20 year guy old somewhat drunk and very hot and bothered, and he’ll say yes to just about anything a good looking woman asks. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She took my wrists and stretched my hands up over my head and pinned them there.  She then straddled my thighs and wrapped one hand around my cock. “Comfy?” she asked as she kneaded with her strong fingers. I was too distracted to reply with anything but a low moan. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She dug her nails into the tender skin along the underside of my cock. I gasped. I was about to complain, but rather than deflating, I had never been harder. She raised herself up onto her knees, shifted a bit, then impaled herself on me. She was hot, wet and tight. Hotter and tighter than anyone I had ever been with before. Not that I was very experienced. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I moaned again and closed my eyes. She lifted up again, and something sharp dragged against the top of my cock as she did so. I instantly sat up, or would have if my arms hadn’t been pinned down. She was wa stronger than she looked. “What the fuck!” I yelled as I looked down. Two thin scratches ran the length of my cock, with beads of blood forming. “Why the heck did you do that? Let me go!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m afraid I can’t, Jake. Not anymore. If I did, I’d have to kill you. And I like you too much to do that.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sank back down, and her vaginal wetness stung in the scratches. “You see, Jake,” she said as she leaned forward, the candles on the nightstands shining on her face, “I’m not exactly human, and soon you won’t be either.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As she said this, her irises changed from blue to green-flecked gold. The changes progressed outwards from there. Her eyelids turned black, and the outer corners shifted upwards. Her nose grew broader, then longer as her upper lip became fleshier and her jaws extended. Her ears became thin, pointed, and migrated back and up. She sat up again, and her breasts shrank until they were mostly nipple. Two rows of dark spots appeared below them, then grew into additional nipples. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sat there for a moment, with her hands resting on my belly. Each finger ended in a sharp, hooked claw. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m a shape shifter, a were-cougar. And now you will be too. It’s transmitted by exchange of bodily fluids. I could have bitten you, but I thought this would be more … fun. With my vashinal wetnesh in your bloodshtream, you will be a were-cougar, thoo!” She smiled, showing off long fangs and sharp incisors.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know, I wash thinking abouth thath Craigthlith ad.” Her diction was becoming slurred as her mouth became more and more catlike. “You really shoulth be carefull whath you athk for, jutht in cathe you geth ith!” By this time, he body was covered in pale brown fur, and her internal temperature became even hotter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My mind was torn. I wanted to throw her off me and run. I wanted her to keep fucking me. I didn’t want to come and release the only control I had left. I couldn’t wait until I did. I was on the edge of panic when I finally orgasmed, my cock pulsing and throbbing inside what was now almost entirely a cougar. Only a few faint vestiges of humanity were still visible - fingers on her front paws, and a deeper brainpan than normal for a feline. She lay down on me and pushed her nose into my face. Her tail flicked between my ankles. Her whiskers tickled as she rubbed her cheeks on mine. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Scent marking me, claiming me as yours? I asked. She lifted her head, and nodded. All of a sudden, I had to laugh. She tilted her head as if to ask, “What?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I just came in a pussy pussy!” She crinkled her nose at me, and proceeded to lick my face with her very rough tongue. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The next morning, I woke up with my cock in something hot, wet and vibrating. It took me a minute to realize what was going on - the most incredible blowjob I’d ever gotten. She was purring! Between that and the incredible things her coarse tongue did to me, I quickly exploded into her mouth. She cleaned me off with her tongue, then licked her lips.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“There is a serious advantage to being one of the smaller cats,” she said. “Lions and tigers and leopards get all the press, but they can’t give purr jobs! Come on, breakfast is ready. Let’s eat while I explain.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Breakfast was delicious, as usual. As we ate, she told me that she had been an ROTC cadet until she was diagnosed with advanced hepatitis during her sophomore year. She lost her ROTC scholarship, and would have had to withdraw from Murch if one of her doctors hadn&#039;t taken her under his wing. Soon after, she let him seduce her, only to find herself being forced by a cougar. He was apologetic after, and taught her how to control her inner beast, but she never again let her guard down around him. Until the previous night, had restricted herself to a few one-night stands with other were-folk. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know,” she said, “I wasn’t joking last night. When I said I’d have to kill you. It’s one of the few laws all weres have in common. Anyone who knows we exist must become one of us, or die. Had I let you go, we’d both be hunted down and killed.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She stopped spreading jam on her toast and put it down. “I’m sorry, Jake, truly I am. It’s just that I’ve been so alone. I can’t undo what I did to you last night. I wish I could have given you a choice.” I didn’t know what to say, so I said nothing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After that, we went our separate ways to work: me to my internship, her to her office. Afterward, I returned to the ranch to find her sitting on the patio, with wet eyes. I wasn’t sure yet how I felt about what she had done to me, but I still cared for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I sat next to her, and she said, “After Dr. Hennessey changed me, I felt like I had been raped. Yes, the sex was completely consensual, but what came with it… was very much like a rape. And now, I&#039;ve done the same thing to you. I feel so guilty. Can you forgive me?&amp;quot; She looked so miserable, so apologetic, that I took her in my arms, and kissed her tears away. Eventually, we were kissing, then she made love to me with an abandon that can only come from denying yourself for fifteen years. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then something she had said clicked. “You had unprotected sex with me, and you have hepatitis?” I almost screamed it at her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She laughed at me. That made me even madder. She actually laughed at me. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I turned you into a fucking werecat, and you’re worried about hepatitis?” She continued more quietly. “Jake, The virus can’t survive in a felid body, and most cougar diseases can’t survive in humans. About the only thing we have to worry about are rabies and toxoplasmosis. Avoid rabid animals, don‘t eat rats and wash your hands after changing a litter box, and you don‘t really have to worry about infectious disease at all.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the next several weeks like that. She’d wake me with a blowjob or sex, we’d go off to work, then come home for more. In between, she told me what to expect on the next night of the full moon. Eventually, she said, I’d be able to control it and change at will regardless of the moon phase, but for the next six months or so, I should plan on spending full moon nights at the ranch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During that time, I felt something strange building within me. Some sort of tension, or static electric energy. It felt like every nerve I had was buzzing with fear or with anticipation, I couldn’t tell which. Probably both. She enrolled me in meditation and tai chi lessons, and that was the only thing that really eased the itch. Well, that and sex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The morning of the full moon, I woke up before she did for a change. I was near bursting with the tension within me. I figured it was time to pay her back for all the wakeup calls she had given me. I slowly spread Ashley’s legs apart, then kissed the slit between them, at first gently, then with more and more pressure as her labia swelled and dampened. I licked and sucked and prodded with my tongue until I felt her spasm. Before the last wave crested, I flipped her on to her stomach, then took her from behind. Before long, she came again with me inside her. It felt so good that I followed shortly thereafter. I collapsed on top of her as we basked in the orgasm afterglow. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She lifted herself up on one elbow to look over her shoulder at me, smiled, and kissed me. Then she reached over to her handbag and pulled out a compact. She opened it up and held it so I could see myself in the mirror. My brown eyes had lightened to cougar gold. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I called in sick to my internship, and we spent most of the day clearing salt cedar. By the end of the day, I felt like I was holding a live wire or something. I heard a flutter behind me, and by reflex turned to look. My eye was immediately caught by the motion of a sparrow flying overhead. After it passed, I smelled its scent wafting down. All day, I was being distracted by the local wildlife. All the time I had helped her on her ranch, I had never noticed how much of it there was. Now, every rustle, every scent on the breeze, every glimpse of motion caught my attention. Late in the afternoon, we spooked a rabbit, and I almost started chasing it. Ashley laughed, put her arms around me and said “I’ve done that, too. Come on, it’s almost time.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the sun getting low in the sky, she led me to a secluded clearing overlooking the creek. We undressed each other, then sat down to watch the sunset. It made everything glow, including her body. Her scent filled my nostrils. I reached for her. She put her arms around me, gave me a hug, and said, “Not now. Later, I promise.” She was still holding me as the nervous tension inside me jumped in a sudden crescendo. I looked behind us, and saw the moon rising over the hill. “It’s okay, baby. I’m here with you. I’ll be with you.” She kept murmuring reassurances in my ear as the tension became unbearable.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It started in my groin where she had - is infected the right word? - well, infected me. My cock and balls retreated backwards between my legs. My cock was slowly being enveloped by a sheath. As I watched, the tip disappeared inside it. I felt pressure inside my fingertips. My nails grew thicker and longer and hooked into wickedly sharp claws. Then I felt the same thing in my toes. My toenails became claws, then my toes bent upwards as my foot bones lengthened. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My canine teeth expanded in girth and length. I ran my tongue over my new fangs. The pressure grew to fill my lower face. I felt my jaws extending forward, pushed out by the pressure within. My nose broadened and suddenly, I was overwhelmed by the scents surrounding me. I focused on Ashley’s scent. Her odor, her words whispered in my ears, her arms around me kept me grounded, sane, as my ears were dragged backwards and upwards through my skull. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It’s hard to describe what happened after that. It’s not that I don’t remember what happened. I can’t find the words to describe it. My best guess is, as the changes penetrated into my brain, I lost the use of language. Ashley’s murmured reassurances became a comfortimg buzz. This scared me more than anything else had. Was I losing my identity, the memories and skills and experiences that made me who I am? Until then, I could think of myself as a human in a cougar body. Now I was losing that, too,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The pressure increased and the changes to my arms, leg and head progressed Then, with a sensation somewhere between a full-body toothache and a mind-blowing, toe-curling orgasm, the rest of my body followed. I was a cougar.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You know the feeling of release when the last item of clothing comes off, and you&#039;re finally fully naked for the first time with a new lover? That&#039;s what it felt like. I felt free.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I tried to run, but my four legs betrayed me. I couldn’t coordinate them, and fell painfully on my snout. Ashley let me go, and got down on her hands and knees. She shifted into a cougar herself. It was the first time I got to watch her shift since that night weeks before. I had been a bit distracted then. I was amazed by how fluid it looked, compared to how my change felt. After I regained my feet, she led me into the bushes. I stumbled at first, but soon walking on four legs seemed natural. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the night prowling her ranch. She taught me how to walk, run, pounce, and climb on four legs instead of two, how to use night vision, smell and hearing to navigate instead of stumbling around in the dark. Towards dawn, she brought down a yearling buck, and I tasted hot blood for the first time. It was wonderful. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then she led me back to the clearing by the creek where we had first changed. We made love in the dawn sunlight as we regained our humanity. Along with everything else that summer, she taught me how to be a cougar and a man, without losing my identity in the cougar mind.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;This story has the same lead character as [[Cougar Town]] but I think it will stand alone. It takes place about 15 years later. It has adult content, some of it nonconsentual&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I hope Vivian won&#039;t be there.&amp;quot; John said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You know she will,&amp;quot; replied Rowan. &amp;quot;The conference is in the same city as her office. You need to tell her to either stop flirting with you, or date you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I tried that. She just laughed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ro, John and I were in her Accord, driving from Syracuse, NY to Rochester for an engineering convention. John, a tall, dark haired fellow, was in the passenger seat. I was in the back, behind Rowan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We were going to represent our employer, Leightner and Moody Engineering, at the convention. Rowan and I were going to give a presentation about the success of our village streetscape project. I was the design engineer and responsible for the overall project. Rowan had designed the sidewalks, landscaping, and drainage. John headed another design team, and was going to talk to prospective clients.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian is LME&#039;s lead real estate lawyer. John had to work with Vivian because his project involved extensive right-of-way purchases.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Vivian often flirts with John to the very limits of professional office behavior, and sometimes beyond. As soon as he responds, though, she gets frigid. It doesn&#039;t help that Vivian is a gorgeous redhead. Anyone could see why John hated it. Unlike most people, however, I can tell she has a serious case of the hots for him. I can smell it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also know why she can&#039;t act on it. You see, Vivian has a secret. She is a werewolf. I can smell that, too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How can I smell it? I have a secret, too. I&#039;m a were-cougar. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I can sympathize with Vivian to some extent. Rowan flirted with me when she first joined the company. It was hard for me. Ro is a pretty brunette with blue eyes and fair skin, with intelligence and personality to match. I wanted so much to ask her out, but I couldn&#039;t, and it wasn&#039;t because of the company&#039;s policy about dating subordinates.  I finally told her to stop.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well at least her hair makes her easy to spot,&amp;quot; Ro said. &amp;quot;Don&#039;t worry. Jake and I will run interference for you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, John&#039;s phone beeped. John looked at it and said, &amp;quot;The Thruway is closed ahead. Bad crash. Take the next exit. It looks like we&#039;re taking the back roads.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well, crap!&amp;quot; Ro said. &amp;quot;At least there will be a full moon tonight, so it&#039;ll be easier to see on the back roads.&amp;quot; I was already feeling the tingle of energy from the moon. Felines like me aren&#039;t as strongly tied to the moon as werewolves, but we still hear her call.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As we drove west through the upstate New York countryside, we were treated to a gorgeous sunset in front of us as the moon rose behind us. Ro was enjoying it, pumping the clutch and flicking the Honda&#039;s shift lever from gear to gear to match the engine speed to the curves and hills. She bought the Honda because it&#039;s one of the few sedans still available with a manual.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We crested a hill and were greeted by the sight of an old farmhouse and barn across the valley, glowing in the light of the setting sun. As we dropped down into the shadow of the valley, I caught a flicker of motion off to the right. &amp;quot;Look out!&amp;quot; I yelled, just as a doe lept over the road. The grey blur following it crashed into the front of the car, smashed the windshield, and disappeared over the roof.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rowan slammed the brake pedal hard. The ABS clattered like mad as the car slewed to a stop. We all got out. John went to check the damage to the car, and Ro looked for whatever we hit. As I opened my door, the scent hit me. Werewolves! &amp;quot;Get back in the car, NOW!&amp;quot; I yelled. She looked at me, then behind me, and screamed. Something slammed into the back of the head, and the world went red and black.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I came to with the throbbing head and nausea of a concussion. I part-changed to cougar and back to heal the damage, then assessed the situation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first thing I noticed was a damp basement odor, overlayed with the scents of wolves. Lots of wolves. I was on a cold, grimy stone floor. The light of a bare bulb showed that we were in a cage in an old basement, probably the in the farmhouse we saw. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rowan was curled up in a ball in the corner, sobbing and rocking back and forth. She reeked with fear. She had a severe dog phobia. She was attacked by one as a kid, and they can still put her on the edge of panic. Werewolves would scare any normal human. To a cynophobe like her, they&#039;d be paralyzing. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Outside the bars were two male and two female werewolves. They were half-changed - still bipedal, but with fur and tails and fangs and thick blunt claws. A female with reddish fur had John pinned him to the floor. She seemed familiar somehow, but I couldn&#039;t quite place it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I knew what was coming next. Were-folk have a general rule about not letting normal humans know about our existence. Anyone that knows has to become one of us, for our safety and security. For wolf packs, though, it has the force of law. The question was how they would enforce it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The red wplf dug her claws into the front of John&#039;s chinos and rent the fabric into tatters.  The boxers beneath them got the same treatment. She lowered her muzzle inside the tear and applied her long supple tongue to his crotch. John started to resist, but a growl and the firm but careful application of her fangs put an end to that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was too late to help John. I resolved to do what I could for Rowan. I pulled her close and wrapped my arms around her. She buried her head into the crook of my neck, sobbing something about dogs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Having gotten the results she wanted, the red wolf straddled John&#039;s hips and took him as he watched in horror. She gyrated her hips, milking him with her pussy while applying her paw-hand to her clit. Small whimpers from her throat son became loud moans. Moans became shreaks as she came. John, against his will, came too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sighed, then turned to the other female. &amp;quot;Emily, the other male is yours. Then we&#039;ll take care of the female. Just then, the airflow pattern in the basement changed and carried the female&#039;s scent to my nose. I recognized it. Ishould have known.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Emily came into the cage to get me. I gently set Bran on the floor and took a fighting stance between her and the wolf. &amp;quot;I admire your courage,&amp;quot; she said, &amp;quot;but you can&#039;t win. No human can beat a werewolf. Come along, and I&#039;ll be gentle.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I snapped a kick to her ribcage. She slammed back into the bars, and before she could recover, I spun her around facing away from me, got her right arm into a half-nelson and wrapped my other hand around her throat, claws extended and buried in her fur. Her eyed bulged. &amp;quot;Shh.&amp;quot; I said. &amp;quot;I don&#039;t want to hurt you.&amp;quot; Then, more louldy, &amp;quot;Vivian!&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian was walking towards the stairs with John over her shoulder. She handed John off to one of the males, and told him to take John up to her room and keep him there. She walked up to the cage and asked, &amp;quot;How did you know it was me?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You have a distinctive scent.&amp;quot; I said. At her puzzled look, I smiled and continued. &amp;quot;Wolves aren&#039;t the only creatures in the forest, don&#039;t you know.&amp;quot; That just confused her more. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed, showing her my yellow-gold cougar eyes, snout and ears. Light brown fur covered my skin. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I had no idea there were shifters besides us wolves ... Well, you obviously won&#039;t be joining our pack, but I don&#039;t think we need to worry about you talking. Let Emily go and join us for dinner. We&#039;re having venison.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I shook my head. &amp;quot;Viv, about Rowan. She&#039;s no good to you. She&#039;s phobic. Can&#039;t you smell it? Can&#039;t you hear her? Do you really want a pack member that goes batshit crazy every full moon? Let me change her. She&#039;ll be better off as a cougar. Heck, she loves cats. She breeds them. You&#039;ll be better off with her as a sane cougar than a crazy wolf&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The remaining male growled, &amp;quot;It&#039;s the law. She must join...&amp;quot; He fell silent at Vivian&#039;s gesture.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sighed. &amp;quot;Well, the alphas won&#039;t like it, but you&#039;re probably right. But if she&#039;s still human in the morning, neither of you are leaving this cage.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I let Emily go with an apology, and said to Vivian, &amp;quot;Do you have any place with bit more privacy, and less grime?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian nodded. &amp;quot;Emily, put them in the safe room, please. Oh, and for letting him get the drop on you, you won&#039;t be joining tonight&#039;s pack run. Instead, you&#039;ll guard the door and make sure she&#039;s changed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I picked up Ro and followed Emily to a door across the basement. She opened it and said, &amp;quot;You can stay in here. It&#039;s still a cell, but at least it has a real floor and a bed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She opened the door and motioned us in. &lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The thick, iron-bound oaken door slammed shut behind us, and several heavy steel bolts slide home. Enough moonlight came through a heavily barred window near the ceiling of the far wall to see the inside of the door was covered with gouges and claw marks. Some had bloodstains. The irony of the name didn&#039;t escape me. This safe room wasn&#039;t a refuge in a home invasion or tornado. They lock up deranged wolves to keep the rest of the pack safe. The kind Rowan would likely become if I failed. I shuddered at the thought. If the pack took her, she&#039;d probably spend all her full moons in here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I set Rowan down on the stained, ragged mattress in the corner. It wasn&#039;t really a bed, but it was better than the cold stone floor. I sat next to her and pulled her onto my lap. She was still in the grips of her panic attack, rocking back and forth muttering &amp;quot;Dogs will kill me!&amp;quot; over and over.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Long ago, I swore an oath to myself that I&#039;d never change anyone without their consent, as I was. She couldn&#039;t consent during a panic attack, but could I let a wolf rape her? Would raping her myself be the lesser evil? I hoped I wouldn&#039;t have to make that choice. I had to get her calmed down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I realized what to do. Her cats were her babies. What&#039;s more calming than a purring kitty? I held her close and purred softly. It seemed to help, so I increased the volume.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It took a while, but it worked. The patch of moonlight from the window had moved down the door to the floor before she finally calmed. She sat up, looked around, and said in a panicky voice, &amp;quot;Are the dogs gone? Where are we? Where&#039;s John?&amp;quot; And then, &amp;quot;Did you hear a cat?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I pulled her close, kissed her forehead gently, and said, &amp;quot;It&#039;s okay. Well, it&#039;s far from okay, but it could be worse.&amp;quot; I took a breath. &amp;quot;Rowan, we&#039;re being held prisoner. By werewolves.&amp;quot; She made a skeptical noise. &amp;quot;Yes, they are real. Very, very real. John is on his way to becoming one of them.&amp;quot; I paused for a breath. &amp;quot;I couldn&#039;t save him, but I made a deal with them for you. The bad news is, you&#039;re not leaving this room as a human. The good news is you don&#039;t have to become a wolf. You have a choice. Let me change you, or they will, probably by force like they did to John&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Change me into what?&amp;quot; Her voice was skeptical.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Were-cougar, Or puma if you prefer.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;So, you&#039;re telling me we&#039;re captives of mythical creatures, you&#039;re a different mythical creature, and I have to choose between you and them.&amp;quot; Her tone was sarcastic and unbelieving. &amp;quot;You expect me to believe that if you bite me, I&#039;ll magically turn into a cougar? Extraordinary claims require...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Extraordinary proof, I know. I&#039;ll get to that in a minute. I&#039;d rather not bite you. That&#039;s uncivilized. Other bodily fluids work just as well. And as for proof...&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I took her hand and pulled it, palm up, into the moonlight. I let go, and placed my hand in hers, palm up. A moment&#039;s concentration, and my fingernails lengthened into sharp, hooked claws. Tough but supple pads formed under my knuckles and the middle joint of my fingers. Tawny fur covered the rest and up into my sleeve. With a quick indrawn breath, she caressed my fur, prodded my pads, and gently ran fingertips over the points of my claws. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Is this real,&amp;quot; she asked. &amp;quot;Am I dreaming? Drugged?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I kicked off my shoes, pulled off my socks and stood in the moonlight from the window. I faced her and unbuttoned my shirt, took it off and dropped it on the mattress. I could tell she liked what she saw. I&#039;m not muscle-bound by any means, but I am fit and toned. After unbuckling my belt and opening my fly, I hooked my thumbs over the waistbands of my pants and briefs and pushed them down to my ankles, changing as I did. I pulled my hind paws out of my pants and padded over to her on all fours. Her astonishment was plain on her face. I head-butted her a few times, then touched my muzzle to her nose.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Smiling with amazement, she reached up and tentatively touched my long whiskers, then the fur on my cheek. &amp;quot;Oh. My. God,&amp;quot; she said. &amp;quot;You&#039;re real! You&#039;re effin&#039; real! She started scratching behind my ears with both hands. I couldn&#039;t help myself. I started purring. It&#039;s is the best part of being one of the lesser cats. Lions, tigers, jaguars and leopards get the press, but they can&#039;t purr. We can&#039;t roar, but a snarl is almost as good, and purring is more fun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ro laughed out loud with delight. &amp;quot;That was you I heard!&amp;quot; she exclaimed. I had the wrong mouth shape to talk now, so I nodded yes. &amp;quot;So, I&#039;ll be able to change and purr and all this, too?&amp;quot; I nodded yes again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Tell me, Jake, what kind of bodily fluids were you talking about? Blood? Earwax?&amp;quot; I looked pointedly at her crotch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh, &#039;&#039;reeeally&#039;&#039;?&amp;quot; She said as she stood. &amp;quot;It&#039;s my turn.&amp;quot; She pulled the barrettes from her dark hair, letting it spill down her back. She unzipped her dress and slowly let it drop to the ground. Her bra soon followed, and she stood in front of me wearing just panties, thigh-highs, and kitten-heeled boots.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Had I been in human form, my cock would be standing at attention at that. Sadly, the sight of a naked human, however attractive just didn&#039;t do it for my cat brain. She started caressing me, starting at my head, and working her way back to my tail. It felt good, but wasn&#039;t arousing. She reached around my rump and caressed my sheath. &amp;quot;No? Huh. Oh, I think I know how to get him to come out and play.&amp;quot; She pulled her panties down and kicked them off. The scent of her nethers tickled my nose. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I dropped my jaw a little and pulled up my upper lip, so her scent could reach the special scent receptors in the roof of my mouth. Yes, she was damp. Wet, even. Doing it with a cougar was a turn on for her? If that was her kink, I was the luckiest cat in the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She cupped her pussy with one hand, then pushed two fingers inside herself. She reached out and rubbed her damp fingers on my muzzle. The smell was intoxicating. Blood rushed to my crotch and I was fully engorged almost instantly. Although I was in cat form, I kept my cock mostly human for two reasons. To be honest, we felines just aren&#039;t well hung. Even lions are lacking in the package. Second, I didn&#039;t want to hurt her. We have barbed, spiky penises I wanted to please her, not leave her a bloody mess down there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She turned and knelt on the mattress with her back to me, then dropped to all fours. With a come-hither look over her shoulder, she spread her knees apart, fully exposing that wonderfully-scented moistness. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My feline brain wanted to jump her, but I paused. I was genuinely fond of this woman. I didn&#039;t want to fuck her. Well, I did, but I wanted to make love to her. I mean, I may be an animal, but I&#039;m not an &#039;&#039;animal.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I moved up alongside her, licked her on the nose, then shoved my shoulder into hers. She yelped and rolled onto her back. I stepped over her and licked her nose again. I rubbed my cheeks against hers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Scent making me, claiming me as yours?&amp;quot; she asked. I nodded yes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I took a few steps back and gently licked her breast, starting on the outside and working to her nipple. By the time I got to he aureole, she was hard. I gently closed my mouth around it, pressed my tongue against it, and purred. She yelped, so I did it again on the other side. I had lost the element of surprise, but he noises told me it was working. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 Next, I started licking down her stomach. I pushed my snout between her legs. She giggled as my whiskers brushed the inside of her thighs. &amp;quot;Stop that! It tickles!&amp;quot; I didn&#039;t stop. Instead, I licked her folds softly, afraid my rough tongue might be too abrasive. I gently worked my tongue inside her, then upwards until I felt her button. I took a deep breath, and let it out with a purr. Yeah that worked. I did it again. That worked really well! It wasn&#039;t long before she was moaning and writhing. I started licking her clit like I was drinking water, tap-tap-tapping with my tongue. I kept it up, purring, licking and sucking, careful of my teeth, until moaning, she clamped her thighs around my head. She grabbed me behind the ears and held me still until the tremors subsided.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She let me go, and rolled back onto all fours. With a pounce I covered her. I gently nipped her neck between my fangs, and dropped my hips to take her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Aaaand,&#039;&#039; I missed. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pussy pussies are farther back than a woman&#039;s, just below the bung. It was kind of embarrassing. I was glad my fur covered my embarrassment. Before I could try again, she reached back and grasped me by the cock. After a few strokes with her hand, she pulled me down and forward and guided me inside her. Fuck! I thought. She actually &#039;&#039;wants&#039;&#039; this?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I started pumping into her. I had not had sex with a human woman since I was changed, so I was a bit worried that I&#039;d do it wrong. I wanted it to feel good for her. I must have been doing something right, she was soon moaning again. Or maybe it was her hypothetical cat fetish. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She moved with me, pushing back into my thrusts to take me fully inside herself, moaning with each one. The loudness and pitch increased until she yelped and I felt her contracting around me. That took me over the edge. I gave her the fluids that would keep her safe from the wolves, and hopefully not wreck her life. She collapsed onto the mattress with me on top of her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a minute. I started the change back to human. She felt my body shifting against her, and rolled over. &amp;quot;Don&#039;t change,&amp;quot; She said. &amp;quot;I like you like this.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed. I was still furred and clawed and snouted, but I could speak and wrap my arms around her. I rolled us over onto our sides, with my body between her and the cold wall. &amp;quot;Will this do? This way we can talk and cuddle.&amp;quot; I pulled her close, nuzzled her ear and purred.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mmm. I&#039;m going to have ask you to stop that. Sometime around three in the afternoon, I think.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Our presentation is at two,&amp;quot; I replied.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Fuck the presentation!&amp;quot; She said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I&#039;d rather fuck you again. Besides, how do you fuck a Powerpoint file?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, there was a knock on the door. The bolts slid back, and as the door opened, I put an arm across Rowan&#039;s breasts and draped my tail over her privates. Emily looked in and chuckled. Surprisingly, she was fully human, and fully nude.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You&#039;re such a gentleman. Anyway, now that that&#039;s done, you two can come upstairs and sleep in the guest room if you want. It has a real bed, pillows, blankets, and all that.&amp;quot; She looked at me and said, &amp;quot;Could you stay like that, so the pack can see you and smell you and know you really are a cougar?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We gathered our things. Ro threw her dress over her head. I hooked a thumb claw into the hole in the end of the zipper pull, and pulled it up for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The stairs of the old house were steep enough that Emily&#039;s butt was even with my nose. A trail of wolfy lust musk wafted behind her. Rowan probably couldn&#039;t smell it, but I could tell Em probably wanked to the sounds of our passion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d have to tell To about the different meaning of privacy among shapeshifters. With our better hearing and smell, everyone knows who&#039;s doing who. We really can&#039;t hide it. Emily must have heard everything we did, and maybe even smelled it. Shifter society only works if we can put aside our jealousies and feel happy for people that share each other&#039;s bodies. Not all of us can.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first floor was littered with puppy piles. Some were just cuddling. Others smelled of sex. Gold eyes followed us, well mostly me, to the front stairs. Emily lead us up the stairs to a back bedroom, motioned us in, and said good night. Moonlight flooded the room through the lace curtains to show a four-poster queen bed. Our bags had been brought in from Ro&#039;s car.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;This story has the same lead character as [[Cougar Town]] but I think it will stand alone. It takes place about 15 years later. It has adult content, some of it nonconsentual&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I hope Vivian won&#039;t be there.&amp;quot; John said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You know she will,&amp;quot; replied Rowan. &amp;quot;The conference is in the same city as her office. You need to tell her to either stop flirting with you, or date you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I tried that. She just laughed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bran, John and I were in Rowan&#039;s Accord, driving from Syracuse to Rochester for an engineering convention. John, a tall, dark haired fellow, was in the passenger seat. I was in the back, behind Rowan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We were going to represent our employer, Leightner and Moody Engineering, at the convention. Rowan and I were going to give a presentation about the success of our village streetscape project. I was the design engineer and responsible for the overall project. Rowan had designed the sidewalks, landscaping, and drainage. John headed another design team, and was going to talk to prospective clients.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian is LME&#039;s lead real estate lawyer. John had to work with Vivian because his project involved extensive right-of-way purchases.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Vivian often flirts with John to the very limits of professional office behavior, and sometimes beyond. As soon as he responds, though, she gets frigid. It doesn&#039;t help that Vivian is a gorgeous redhead. Anyone could see why John hated it. Unlike most people, however, I can tell she has a serious case of the hots for him. I can smell it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also know why she can&#039;t act on it. You see, Vivian has a secret. She is a werewolf. I can smell that, too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How can I smell it? I have a secret, too. I&#039;m a were-cougar. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I can sympathize with Vivian to some extent. Rowan flirted with me when she first joined the company. I appreciated the attention, but I finally told her to stop. I&#039;m pretty sure she was still crushing on me a little, though.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well at least her hair makes her easy to spot,&amp;quot; Row said. &amp;quot;Don&#039;t worry. Jake and I will run interference for you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, the car&#039;s GPS beeped. John looked at it and said, &amp;quot;The Thruway is closed ahead. Bad crash. Take the next exit. It looks like we&#039;re taking the back roads.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well, crap!&amp;quot; Bran said. &amp;quot;At least there will be a full moon tonight, so it&#039;ll be easier to see on the back roads.&amp;quot; I was already feeling the tingle of energy from the moon. Felines like me aren&#039;t as strongly tied to the moon as werewolves, but we still hear her call.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As we drove west through the upstate New York countryside, we were treated to a gorgeous sunset in front of us as the moon rose behind us. Ro was enjoying it, pumping the clutch and flicking the manual shift lever from gear to gear to match the engine speed to the curves and hills. She bought the Honda because it&#039;s one of the few sedans still available with a manual.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We crested a hill and were greeted by the sight of an old farmhouse and barn across the valley, glowing in the light of the setting sun. As we dropped down into the shadow of the valley, I caught a flicker of motion off to the right. &amp;quot;Look out!&amp;quot; I yelled, just as a doe lept over the road. The grey blur following it crashed into the front of the car, smashed the windshield, and disappeared over the roof.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rowan slammed the brake pedal hard and the ABS clattered like mad as the car slewed to a stop. We all got out. John went to check the damage to the car, and Ro looked for whatever we hit. As I opened my door, the scent hit me. Werewolves! &amp;quot;Get back in the car, NOW!&amp;quot; I yelled. She looked at me, then behind me, and screamed. Something slammed into the back of the head, and the world went red and black.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I came to with the throbbing head and nausea of a concussion. I part-changed to cougar and back to heal the damage, then assessed the situation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first thing I noticed was a damp basement odor, overlayed with the scents of wolves. Lots of wolves. I was on a cold, grimy stone floor. The light of a bare bulb showed that we were in a cage in an old basement, probably the in the farmhouse we saw. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rowan was curled up in a ball in the corner, sobbing and rocking back and forth. She reeked with fear. She had a severe dog phobia. She was attacked by one as a kid, and they can still put her on the edge of panic. Werewolves would scare any normal human. To a cynophobe like her, they&#039;d be paralyzing. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Outside the bars were two male and two female werewolves. They were half-changed - still bipedal, but with fur and tails and fangs and thick blunt claws. They were downwind so I couldn&#039;t pick up their individual scents. If I could, their scents might have given me a clue about their intentions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I can hold my own against any single werewolf. With surprise on my side, maybe even two or three of them. My feline agility and sharp claws would give me an edge. Four of them in close quarters, with the rest of the pack upstairs, was out of the question. Cats in general are ambush hunters, stalking, jumping and pouncing on our prey. Wolves will chase their prey for miles until it drops from exhaustion. I could never outrun them. Fighting wasn&#039;t an option. I had to outthink them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A female with reddish fur dragged John out of the cage, and pinned him to the floor as a male shut and locked the door. She seemed familiar somehow, but I couldn&#039;t quite place it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She dug her claws into the front of John&#039;s chinos and ripped apart the pants and the boxers beneath them open. She lowered her muzzle inside the rent in his trousers and applied her long supple tongue to his crotch. John started to resist, but a growl and the firm but careful application of her fangs put an end to that. I guess I didn&#039;t need their scent after all.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was too late to help John. I resolved to help Ro in any way I could. I pulled her close and wrapped my arms around her. She buried her head into the crook of my neck, sobbing something about dogs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Having gotten the results she wanted, the red wolf straddled John&#039;s hips and took him as he watched in horror. She gyrated her hips, milking him with her pussy while applying her paw-hand to her clit. Small whimpers from her throat son became loud moans. Moans became shreaks as she came. John, against his will, came too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She turned to the other female. &amp;quot;Emily, the other male is yours. The boss is going to want the woman, as usual.&amp;quot; I heard a door open somewhere. The airflow pattern in the basement changed and carried the female&#039;s scent to my nose. I should have known.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Emily came into the cage to get me. I gently set Bran on the floor and took a fighting stance between her and the wolf. &amp;quot;I admire your courage,&amp;quot; she said, &amp;quot;but you can&#039;t win. Come along, and I&#039;ll be gentle.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I leaped into a spinning kick. My left foot collided with her chest. She slammed back into the bars. Before she could recover, I spun her around facing away from me, got her right arm into a half-nelson and wrapped my other hand around her throat, claws extended. Her eyed bulged. &amp;quot;Shh.&amp;quot; I said. &amp;quot;I don&#039;t want to hurt you.&amp;quot; Then, more louldy, &amp;quot;Vivian!&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian was walking towards the stairs with John over her shoulder. She spun to face me, handed John off to one of the males, and walked up to the cage. &amp;quot;How did you know?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You have a distinctive scent.&amp;quot; I said. At her puzzled look, I smiles and continued. &amp;quot;Wolves aren&#039;t the only dangerous creatures in the forest, don&#039;t you know.&amp;quot; That just confused her more. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed, showing her my gold cougar eyes, snout and ears. Light brown for covered my skin. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Amazing! I had no idea there were shifters besides us wolves ... Well, you obviously won&#039;t be joining our pack, but I don&#039;t think we need to worry. Let Emily go and join us for dinner. We&#039;re having venison.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I shook my head. &amp;quot;Viv, about Rowan. She&#039;s no good to you. She&#039;s phobic. Can&#039;t you smell it? Do you really want a pack member that goes batshit crazy every full moon? Give her to me and I&#039;ll change her. She&#039;ll be better off as a cougar. Heck, she loves cats. She breeds them. You&#039;ll be safer with her as a sane cougar than a crazed wolf&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A male growled, &amp;quot;It&#039;s the law. She must join...&amp;quot; He fell silent at Vivian&#039;s gesture.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sighed. &amp;quot;Well, the boss won&#039;t like it, but you&#039;re probably right. But if she&#039;s still human in the morning, neither of you are leaving this cage.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I let Emily go with an apology, and said to Vivian, &amp;quot;Do you have any place with bit more privacy, and less grime?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian nodded. &amp;quot;Emily, put them in the safe room, please. Oh, and for letting him get the drop on you, you won&#039;t be joining tonight&#039;s pack run. Instead, you&#039;ll guard the door and make sure she&#039;s changed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I picked up Ro and followed Emily to a door across the basement. &amp;quot;You can stay in here. It&#039;s still a cell, but at least it has a real floor and a bed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She opened the door and motioned us in. &lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The thick, iron-bound oaken door slammed shut behind us, and several heavy steel bolts slide home. The inside of the door was covered with gouges and claw marks. Some had bloodstains. Moonlight glinted through a heavily barred window near the ceiling of the far wall. The irony of the name safe room didn&#039;t escape me. This wasn&#039;t a refuge in a home invasion or tornado. They lock up deranged, out-of-control wolves to keep the rest of the pack safe. The kind Rowan would likely become if I failed. I shuddered at the thought. If the pack took her, she&#039;d probably spend all her full moons in here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I set Rowan down on the stained, ragged mattress in the corner. It wasn&#039;t really a bed, but it was better than the cold stone floor. I sat next to her and pulled her onto my lap. She was still in the grips of he panic attack, rocking back and forth muttering &amp;quot;Dogs will kill me!&amp;quot; over and over.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Long ago, I swore an oath to myself that I&#039;d never change anyone without their consent, as I was. I&#039;d never get that unless I could calm her. Still, if the only other choice was let a wolf rape her... I hoped I could avoid that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I realized what to do. Her cats were her babies. What&#039;s more calming than a purring kitty? I held her close and purred softly. It seemed to help, so I increased the volume.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The patch of moonlight had moved down the wall to the floor before she finally calmed. She sat up, looked around, and said in a panicky voice, &amp;quot;Are the dogs gone? Where are we? Where&#039;s John?&amp;quot; And then, &amp;quot;Did you hear a cat?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I pulled her close, kissed her forehead gently, and said, &amp;quot;It&#039;s okay. Well, it&#039;s far from okay, but it could be worse.&amp;quot; I took a breath. &amp;quot;Bran, we&#039;re being held prisoner. By werewolves.&amp;quot; She made a skeptical noise. &amp;quot;Yes, they are real. Very, very real. John is on his way to becoming one of them.&amp;quot; I paused for a breath. &amp;quot;I couldn&#039;t save him, but I made a deal with them for you. The bad news is, you&#039;re not leaving this room as a human. The good news is you don&#039;t have to become a wolf. You have a choice. Let me change you, or they will, by force if need be&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Change me into what?&amp;quot; Her voice was skeptical.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Were-cougar, Or puma if you prefer.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;So, you&#039;re telling me we&#039;re captives of mythical creatures, you&#039;re a different mythical creature, and I have to choose between you and them.&amp;quot; Her tone was sarcastic and unbelieving. &amp;quot;You expect me to believe that if you bite me, I&#039;ll magically turn into a cougar? Extraordinary claims require...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Extraordinary proof, I know. I&#039;ll get to that in a minute. I&#039;d rather not bite you. That&#039;s uncivilized. Other bodily fluids works just as well or better than saliva, and are a lot less painful. And as for proof...&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I took her hand and pulled it, palm up, into the moonlight. I let go, and placed my hand in hers. A moment&#039;s concentration, and my fingernails lengthened into sharp, hooked claws. Tough but supple pads formed under my knuckles and the middle joint of my fingers. Tawny fur covered the rest up past my wrist. With a quick indrawn breath, she caressed my fur, prodded my pads, and gently ran fingertips over the points of my claws. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Is this real? An I dreaming? Drugged?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I kicked off my shoes, pulled off my socks and stood in the shaft of moonlight from the window. I faced her and unbuttoned my shirt, took it off and dropped it on the mattress. I could tell she liked what she saw. I&#039;m not muscle-bound by any means, but I am fit and toned. After unbuckling my belt and opening my fly, I hooked my thumbs over the waistbands of my pants and briefs and pushed them down to my ankles, changing as I did. I pulled my hind paws out of my pants and padded over to her on all fours. Her astonishment was plain on her face. I head-butted her a few times, then touched my muzzle to her nose.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Smiling with amazement, she reached up and tentatively touched my long whiskers, then the fur on my cheek. &amp;quot;Oh. My. God,&amp;quot; she said. &amp;quot;You&#039;re real! You&#039;re effin&#039; real! She started scratching behind my ears with both hands. I couldn&#039;t help myself. I started purring. It&#039;s is the best thing of being one of the lesser cats. Lions, tigers, jaguars and leopards get the press, but they can&#039;t purr. We can&#039;t roar, but a snarl is almost as good, and purring is more fun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ro laughed out loud with delight. &amp;quot;That was you I heard,&amp;quot; she exclaimed. I had the wrong mouth shape to talk now, so I nodded yes. &amp;quot;So, I&#039;ll be able to change and purr and all this, too?&amp;quot; I nodded yes again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Tell me, Jake, what kind of bodily fluids were you talking about? Blood? Earwax?&amp;quot; I looked pointedly at her crotch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh, &#039;&#039;reeeally&#039;&#039;?&amp;quot; She said as she stood. &amp;quot;It&#039;s my turn.&amp;quot; She pulled the barrettes from her dark hair, letting it spill down her back. She unzipped the back of her dress and slowly let it drop to the ground. Her bra soon followed, and she stood in front of me wearing just panties, thigh-highs, and kitten-heeled boots.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Intellectually, I could see she was as attractive as I thought she&#039;d be, if a little on the round side. Sadly, the sight of a naked human just didn&#039;t do it for my cat brain. She reached around my rump and caressed my sheath. &amp;quot;No? Huh. Oh, I think I know how to get him to come out and play.&amp;quot; She pulled her panties down and kicked them off. The scent of her nethers tickled my nose. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I dropped my jaw a little and pulled up my upper lip, so her scent could reach the special scent receptors in the roof of my mouth. Yes, she was damp. Doing it with a cougar was a turn on for her? If that was her kink, I was the luckiest cat in the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She cupped her pussy with one hand, then pushed two fingers inside herself. She reached out and rubbed her damp fingers on my muzzle. The smell was intoxicating. Blood rushed to my crotch and I was fully engorged almost instantly. Although I was in cat form, I kept my cock mostly human for two reasons. To be honest, we felines just aren&#039;t well hung. Even lions are lacking in the package. Second, I didn&#039;t want to hurt her. We have barbed, spiky penises I wanted to please her, not leave her a bloody mess down there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She turned and knelt on the mattress with her back to me, then dropped to all fours. With a come-hither look over her shoulder, she spread her knees apart, fully exposing that wonderfully-scented moistness. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My feline brain wanted to jump her, but I paused. I was genuinely fond of this woman. I didn&#039;t want to fuck her. Well, I did, but I wanted to make love to her. I mean, I may be an animal, but I&#039;m not an &#039;&#039;animal.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I moved up alongside her, licked her on the nose, then shoved my shoulder into hers. She yelped and rolled onto her back. I stepped over her and licked her nose again. I rubbed my cheeks against hers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Scent making me, claiming me as yours?&amp;quot; she asked. I nodded yes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I took a few steps back and pushed my snout between her legs. She giggled as my whiskers brushed the inside of her thighs. &amp;quot;Stop that! It tickles!&amp;quot; I didn&#039;t stop. Instead, I licked her folds softly, afraid my rough tongue might be too abrasive. I gently worked my tongue inside her, then upwards until I felt her button. I took a deep breath, and let it out with a purr. Yeah that worked. I did it again. That worked really well! It wasn&#039;t long before she was moaning and writhing. I kept it up, purring, licking and sucking, careful of my teeth, until her thighs closed on my snout. She grabbed hold of my head and held me still until the tremors subsided.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She let me go, and rolled back onto all fours. With a pounce I covered her. I gently nipped her neck between my fangs, and dropped my hips to take her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Aaaand,&#039;&#039; I missed. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pussy pussies are farther back than a woman&#039;s, just below the bung. It was kind of embarrassing. I was glad my fur covered my embarrassment. Before I could try again, she reached back and grasped me by the cock. After a few strokes with her hand, she pulled me down and forward and guided me inside her. Fuck! I thought. She actually &#039;&#039;wants&#039;&#039; this?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I started pumping into her. I had not had sex with a human woman since I was changed, so I was a bit worried that I&#039;d do it wrong. I wanted it to feel good for her. I must have been doing something right, she was soon moaning again. Or maybe it was her hypothetical cat fetish. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She moved with me, pushing back into my thrusts to take me fully inside herself, moaning with each one. The loudness and pitch increased until she yelped and I felt her contracting around me. That took me over the edge. I gave her the fluids that would keep her safe from the wolves, and hopefully not wreck her life. She collapsed onto the bed with me on top of her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a minute. I started the change back to human. She felt my body shifting against her, and rolled over. &amp;quot;Don&#039;t change,&amp;quot; She said. &amp;quot;I like you like this.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed. I was still furred and clawed and snouted, but I could speak and wrap my arms around her. &amp;quot;Will this do? This way we can talk and cuddle.&amp;quot; I pulled her close, nuzzled her ear and purred.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mmm. I&#039;m going to have ask you to stop that. Sometime around three in the afternoon, I think.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Our presentation is at 2,&amp;quot; I replied.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Fuck the presentation!&amp;quot; She said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I&#039;d rather fuck you again. Besides, how do you have sex with a Powerpoint file?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, there was a knock on the door. The bolts slid back, and as the door opened, I put an arm across Rowan&#039;s breasts and draped my tail over her privates. Emily looked in and chuckled. Surprisingly, she was fully human, and fully nude.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You&#039;re such a gentleman. Anyway, now that that&#039;s done, you two can come upstairs and sleep in the guest room if you want. It has a real bed, pillows, blankets, and all that.&amp;quot; She looked at me and said, &amp;quot;Could you stay like that, so the pack can see you and smell you and know you really are a cougar?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We gathered our things. Ro threw her dress over her head. I hooked a thumb claw into the hole in the end of the zipper pull, and pulled it up for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The stairs were steep enough that Emily&#039;s butt was even with my nose. A trail of wolfy lust musk wafted behind her. Rowan probably couldn&#039;t smell it, but I could tell Em was probably having a wank to the sounds of Our passion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d have to tell To about the different meaning of privacy among shapeshifters. With our better hearing and smell, everyone knows who&#039;s doing who. We really can&#039;t hide it. Emily must have heard everything we did, and maybe even smelled it. Shifter society only works if we can put aside our jealousies and feel happy for people that share each other&#039;s bodies. Not all of us can.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first floor was littered with puppy piles. Some were just cuddling. Others smelled of sex. Gold eyes followed us, well mostly me, to the front stairs. Emily lead us up the stairs to a back bedroom. Moonlight flooded through the lace curtains. Someone had brought our bags in from Bran&#039;s car.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;This story has the same lead character as [[Cougar Town]] but I think it will stand alone. It takes place about 15 years later. It has adult content, some of it nonconsentual&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I hope Vivian won&#039;t be there.&amp;quot; John said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You know she will,&amp;quot; replied Branwen. &amp;quot;The conference is in the same city as her office. You need to tell her to either stop flirting with you, or date you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I tried that. She just laughed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bran, John and I were in Bran&#039;s Buick, driving from Syracuse to Rochester for an engineering convention. John, a tall, dark haired fellow, was in the passenger seat. I was in the back, behind Bran.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We were going to represent our employer, Leightner and Moody Engineering, at the convention. Bran and I were going to give a presentation about the success of our village streetscape project. I was the design engineer and responsible for the overall project. Bran had designed the sidewalks, landscaping, and drainage. John headed another design team, and was going to talk to prospective clients.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian is LME&#039;s lead real estate lawyer. John had to work with Vivian because his project involved extensive right-of-way purchases.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Vivian often flirts with John to the very limits of professional office behavior, and sometimes beyond. As soon as he responds, though, she gets frigid. It doesn&#039;t help that Vivian is a gorgeous redhead. Anyone could see why John hated it. Unlike most people, however, I can tell she has a serious case of the hots for him. I can smell it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also know why she can&#039;t act on it. You see, Vivian has a secret. She is a werewolf. I can smell that, too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How can I smell it? I have a secret, too. I&#039;m a were-cougar. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I can sympathize with Vivian to some extent. Branwen used to flirt with me when she first joined the company. I appreciated it, but I finally had to tell her to stop. I&#039;m pretty sure she was still crushing on me a little, though.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well at least her hair makes her easy to spot,&amp;quot; Bran said. &amp;quot;Don&#039;t worry. Bran and I will run interference for you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, the car&#039;s GPS beeped. John looked at it and said, &amp;quot;The Thruway is closed ahead. Bad crash. Take the next exit. It looks like we&#039;re taking the back roads.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well, crap!&amp;quot; Bran said. &amp;quot;At least there will be a full moon tonight, so it&#039;ll be easier to see on the back roads.&amp;quot; I was already feeling the tingle of energy from the moon. Felines like me aren&#039;t as strongly tied to the moon as werewolves, but we still hear her call.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As we drove west through the upstate New York countryside, we were treated to a gorgeous sunset in front of us as the moon rose behind us. We crested a hill and were greeted by the sight of an old farmhouse and barn across the valley, glowing in the light of the setting sun. As we dropped down into the shadow of the hill, I caught a flicker of motion off to the right. &amp;quot;Look out!&amp;quot; I yelled, just as a doe lept over the road. A grey blur followed it crashed into the front of the car, smashed the windshield, and disappeared over the roof.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Branwen slammed the brake pedal hard and the ABS clattered like mad as the car slewed to a stop. We all got out. John went to check the damage to the car, and Bran looked for whatever we hit. As I opened my door, the scent hit me. Werewolves! &amp;quot;Get back in the car, NOW!&amp;quot; I yelled. She looked at me, then behind me, and screamed. Something slammed into the back of the head, and the world went red and black.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I came to with the throbbing head and nausea of a concussion. I part-changed to cougar and back to heal the damage, then assessed the situation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first thing I noticed was a damp basement odor, overlayed with the scents of wolves. Lots of wolves. I was on a cold, grimy stone floor. The light of a bare bulb showed that we were in a caged in an old basement, probably the farm we saw. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bran was curled up in a ball in the corner, sobbing and rocking back and forth. She reeked with fear. She had a severe dog phobia. She was attacked by one as a kid, and they can still put her on the edge of panic. Werewolves would scare any normal human. To a cynophobe like Branwen, they&#039;d be paralyzing. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Outside the bars were two male and two female werewolves. They were half-changed - still bipedal, but with fur and tails and fangs and thick blunt claws. They were downwind so I couldn&#039;t pick up their individual scents. If I could, it might have given me a clue about their intentions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I can hold my own against any single werewolf. With surprise on my side, maybe even two or three of them. My feline agility and sharp claws would give me an edge. Four of them in close quarters, with the rest of the pack upstairs, was out of the question. We are ambush hunters, stalking, jumping and pouncing n our prey. Wolves will chase their prey for miles until it drops from exhaustion. I could never outrun them. Fighting wasn&#039;t an option. I had to outthink them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A female with reddish fur dragged John out of the cage, and pinned him to the floor as a male shut and locked the door. She seemed familiar somehow, but I couldn&#039;t quite place it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She dug her claws into the front of John&#039;s chinos and ripped them open along with his boxers. She lowered her about inside the rent in his trousers and applied her long supple tongue to his crotch. John started to resist, but a growl and the firm but careful application of her fangs put an end to that. I guess I didn&#039;t need their scent after all.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was too late to help John. I resolved to help Bran in any way I could.  &lt;br /&gt;
I pulled her close and wrapped my arms around her. She buried her head into the crook of my neck, sobbing something about dogs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Having gotten the results she wanted, the red wolf straddled John&#039;s hips and took him as he watched in horror. She gyrated her hips, milking him with her pussy while applying her paw-hand to her clit. Small whimpers from her throat son became loud moans. Moans became shreaks as she came. John, against his will, came too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She turned to the other female. &amp;quot;Emily, the other male is yours. The boss is going to want the woman, as usual.&amp;quot; I heard a door open somewhere, changing the airflow pattern. I got a whiff of the female&#039;s scent. I should have known.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Emily came into the cage to get me. I gently set Bran on the floor and took a fighting stance between her and the wolf. &amp;quot;I admire your courage,&amp;quot; she said, &amp;quot;but you can&#039;t win. Come along and I&#039;ll be gentle.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I leaped into a spinning kick. My left foot collided with her chest. She slammed back into the bars. Before she could recover, I spun her around facing away from me, got her right arm into a half-nelson and wrapped my other hand around her throat, claws extended. Her eyed bulged. &amp;quot;Shh.&amp;quot; I said. &amp;quot;I don&#039;t want to hurt you.&amp;quot; Then, more louldy, &amp;quot;Vivian!&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian was walking towards the stairs with John over her shoulder. She spun to face me, handed John off to one of the males, and walked up to the cage. &amp;quot;How did you know?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You have a distinctive scent.&amp;quot; I said. At her puzzled look, I continued. &amp;quot;Wolves aren&#039;t the only dangerous creatures in the forest, don&#039;t you know.&amp;quot; That just confused her more. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed, showing her my gold cougar eyes, snout and ears. Light brown for covered my skin. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Amazing! I had no idea there were shifters besides us wolves ... Well, you obviously won&#039;t be joining our pack, but I don&#039;t think we need to worry. Let Emily go and join us for dinner. We&#039;re having venison.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I shook my head. &amp;quot;Viv, about Branwen. She&#039;s no good to you. She&#039;s phobic. Can&#039;t you smell it? Do you really want a pack member that goes batshit crazy every full moon? Give her to me and I&#039;ll change her. She&#039;ll be better off as a cougar. Heck, she loves cats. She breeds them. You&#039;ll be safer with her as a sane cougar than a crazed wolf&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A male growled, &amp;quot;It&#039;s the law. She must join...&amp;quot; He fell silent at Vivian&#039;s gesture.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sighed. &amp;quot;Well, the boss won&#039;t like it, but you&#039;re probably right. But if she&#039;s still human in the morning, neither of you are leaving this cage.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I let Emily go with an apology, and said to Vivian, &amp;quot;Do you have any place with bit more privacy, and less grime?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian nodded. &amp;quot;Emily, put them in the safe room, please. Oh, and for letting him get the drop on you, you won&#039;t be joining tonight&#039;s howl. Instead, you&#039;ll guard the door and make sure she&#039;s changed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I carried Bran as Emily led us to a door across the basement. &amp;quot;You can stay in here. It&#039;s still a cell, but at least it has a real floor and a bed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She opened the door and motioned us in. The door was thick oak, riveted to iron bands. It closed behind us with a bang, and several heavy steel bolts slide home. The inside of the door was covered with gouges and claw marks. Some had bloodstains. The irony of the name safe room didn&#039;t escape me. This wasn&#039;t a refuge in a home invasion or tornado. They lock up deranged, out-of-control wolves to keep the rest of the pack safe. The kind Branwen would likely become if I failed. I shuddered at the thought. If she joined the pack, Bran would probably spend all her full moons in here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The bed was just a stained, ragged mattress in the corner, but it was better than the cold stone floor. I set Branwen down on it, sat next to her and pulled her onto my lap. She was still shaking in the grips of he panic attack, muttering &amp;quot;Dogs will kill me!&amp;quot; over and over. I had to calm her enough to talk to. I&#039;d sworn an oath to myself I&#039;d never change anyone without their consent, like I was. Still, if the only other choice was let a wolf rape her... I hoped I could avoid that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I realized what to do as the moon began to peek over the sill of a barred window high on the far wall.  She loved cats. What&#039;s more calming than a purring kitty in your lap? I started purring softly. It seemed to help, so I increased the volume.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The patch of moonlight moved from the wall across from the window to the floor before Bran finally calmed. She sat up, looked around, and said in a panicky voice, &amp;quot;What happened? Where are we? Where&#039;s John? Are the dogs gone?&amp;quot; And then, &amp;quot;Did you hear a cat?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I pulled her close, and said, &amp;quot;It&#039;s okay. Well, it&#039;s far from okay, but it could be worse.&amp;quot; I took a breath. &amp;quot;Bran, we&#039;re being held prisoner. By werewolves.&amp;quot; She made a skeptical noise. &amp;quot;Yes, they are real. Very, very real. They have John. He&#039;s on his way to becoming one of them.&amp;quot; I paused for a breath. &amp;quot;I have good news and bad news for you. The bad news is, you&#039;re not leaving this room as a human. The good news is I convinced them to give you a choice. Let me change you, or they will, by force if need be&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Change me into what?&amp;quot; Her voice was skeptical.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Were-cougar, Or catamount or puma if you prefer.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;So, you&#039;re telling me we&#039;re captives of mythical creatures, you&#039;re a different mythical creature, and I have to choose between you.&amp;quot; Her tone was sarcastic and unbelieving. You expect me to believe that if you bite me, I&#039;ll magically turn into a cougar? Extraordinary claims require...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Extraordinary proof, I know. I&#039;ll get to that in a minute. I&#039;d rather not bite you. That&#039;s uncivilized. Other bodily fluids works just as well or better than saliva, and are a lot less painful. And as for proof...&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I took her hand and pulled it, palm up, into the moonlight. I let go, and placed my hand in hers. A moment&#039;s concentration, and my fingernails lengthened into sharp, hooked claws. Tough but supple pads formed under my knuckles and the middle joint of my fingers. Tawny fur covered the rest up past my wrist. With a quick indrawn breath, she caressed my fur, prodded my pads, and gently ran fingertips over the points of my claws. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Is this real? An I dreaming? Drugged?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I kicked off my shoes, pulled off my socks and stood in the shaft of moonlight from the window. I faced her and unbuttoned my shirt, took it off and dropped it on the mattress. I could tell she liked what she saw. I&#039;m not muscle-bound by any means, but I am fit and toned. After unbuckling my belt and opening my fly, I hooked my thumbs over the waistbands of my pants and briefs and pushed them down to my ankles, changing as I did. I pulled my hind paws out of my pants and padded over to her. Her astonishment was plain on her face. I head-butted her a few times, then touched my muzzle to her nose.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Smiling with amazement, she reached up and tentatively touched my long whiskers, then the fur on my cheek. &amp;quot;Oh. My. God,&amp;quot; she said. &amp;quot;You&#039;re real! You&#039;re effin&#039; real! She started scratching behind my ears with both hands. I couldn&#039;t help myself. I started purring. It&#039;s is the best thing of being one of the lesser cats. Lions, tigers, jaguars and leopards get the press, but they can&#039;t purr. We can&#039;t roar, but a snarl is almost as good, and purring is more fun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bran laughed out loud with delight. &amp;quot;That was you I heard,&amp;quot; she exclaimed. I had the wrong mouth shape to talk now, so I nodded yes. &amp;quot;So, I&#039;ll be able to change and purr and all this, too?&amp;quot; I nodded yes again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Tell me, Jake, what kind of bodily fluids were you talking about? Blood? Earwax?&amp;quot; I looked pointedly at her crotch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh, &#039;&#039;reeeally&#039;&#039;?&amp;quot; She said as she stood. &amp;quot;It&#039;s my turn.&amp;quot; She pulled the barrettes from her hair, letting it spill down her back. She unzipped the back of her dress and slowly let it drop to the ground. Her bra soon followed, and she stood in front of me wearing just panties, thigh-highs, and kitten-heeled boots.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Intellectually, I could see she was as attractive as I thought she&#039;d be, if a little on the round side. Sadly, the sight of a naked human just didn&#039;t do it for my cat brain. She reached around my rump and caressed my sheath. &amp;quot;No? Huh. Oh, I think I know how to get him to come out and play.&amp;quot; She pulled her panties down and kicked them off. The scent of her nethers tickled my nose. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I dropped my jaw a little and pulled up my upper lip, so her scent could reach the special scent receptors in the roof of my mouth. Yes, she was damp. Doing it with a cougar was a turn on for her? If that was her kink, I was the luckiest cat in the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She cupped her pussy with one hand, then pushed two fingers inside herself. She reached out and rubbed her damp fingers on my muzzle. The smell was intoxicating. I was almost instantly fully engorged. I kept my cock mostly human, for two reasons. To be honest, we felines just aren&#039;t well hung. Even lions are lacking in the package. Second, I didn&#039;t want to hurt her. We have barbed, spiky penises I wanted to please her, not leave her a bloody mess down there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She turnec and knelt on the mattress with her back to me, then dropped to all fours. With a come-hither look over her shoulder, she spread her knees apart, fully exposing that wonderfully-scented moistness. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My feline brain wanted to jump her, but I paused. I was genuinely fond of this woman. I didn&#039;t want to fuck her. Well, I did, but I wanted to make love to her. I mean, I may be an animal, but I&#039;m not an &#039;&#039;animal.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I moved up alongside her, licked her on the nose, then shoved my shoulder into hers. She yelped and rolled onto her back. I stepped over her and licked her nose again. I rubbed my cheeks against hers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Scent making me, claiming me as yours?&amp;quot; she asked. I nodded yes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I took a few steps back and pushed my snout between her legs. She giggled as my whiskers brushed the inside of her thighs. &amp;quot;Stop that! It tickles!&amp;quot; I didn&#039;t stop. Instead, I licked her folds softly, afraid my rough tongue might be too abrasive. I gently worked my tongue inside her, then upwards until I felt her button. I took a deep breath, and let it out with a purr. Yeah that worked. I did it again. That worked really well! It wasn&#039;t long before she was moaning and writhing. I kept it up, purring, licking and sucking, careful of my teeth, until her thighs closed on my snout. She grabbed hold of my head and held me still until the tremors subsided.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She let me go, and rolled back onto all fours. With a pounce I covered her. I gently nipped her neck between my fangs, and dropped my hips to take her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Aaaand,&#039;&#039; I missed. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pussy pussies are farther back than a woman&#039;s, just below the bung. It was kind of embarrassing. I was glad my fur covered my embarrassment. Before I could try again, she reached back and grasped me by the cock. After a few strokes with her hand, she pulled me down and forward and guided me inside her. Fuck! I thought. She actually &#039;&#039;wants&#039;&#039; this?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I started pumping into her. I had not had sex with a human woman since I was changed, so I was a bit worried that I&#039;d do it wrong. I wanted it to feel good for her. I must have been doing something right, she was soon moaning again. Or maybe it was her hypothetical cat fetish. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She moved with me, pushing back into my thrusts to take me fully inside herself, moaning with each one. The loudness and pitch increased until she yelped and I felt her contracting around me. That took me over the edge. Along with my load, I felt a burst of my were-spirit, the energy that enables us to change, surge out of me into her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That&#039;s what actually would turn her, not the exchange of bodily fluids from sex or a bite. It triggered another, stronger orgasm in her. She collapsed onto the bed, and I fell on top of her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a minute. I started the change back to human. She felt my body shifting against her, and rolled over. &amp;quot;Don&#039;t change,&amp;quot; She said. &amp;quot;I like you like this.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed. I was still furred and clawed and snouted, but I could speak and wrap my arms around her. &amp;quot;Will this do? This way we can talk and cuddle.&amp;quot; I pulled her close, nuzzled her ear and purred.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mmm. I&#039;m going to have ask you to stop that. Sometime around 3 in the afternoon, I think.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Our presentation is at 2,&amp;quot; I replied.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Fuck the presentation!&amp;quot; She said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I&#039;d rather fuck you again. Besides, how do you have sex with a Powerpoint file?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, there was a knock on the door. The bolts slid back, and as the door opened, I put an arm across Bran&#039;s breasts, and draped my tail over her privates. Emily looked in and chuckled. &amp;quot;You&#039;re such a gentleman. Anyway, now that that&#039;s done, you can come upstairs and sleep in the guest room if you want. It has a real bed, pillows, and windows, and all that.&amp;quot; She looked at me and said, &amp;quot;Could you stay like that, so the pack can see you and smell you and know you really are a cougar?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We gathered our things. Bran threw her dress over her head. I hooked a thumb claw into the hole in the end of the zipper pull, and pulled it up for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The stairs were steep enough that Emily&#039;s butt was even with my nose. A trail of wolfy lust musk wafted behind her. I doubted Bran could smell it, but I&#039;d have to tell her about the different meaning of privacy among shapeshifters. With our better hearing and smell, everyone knows who&#039;s doing who. We really can&#039;t hide it. Emily must have heard everything we did, and maybe even smelled it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first floor was littered with puppy piles. Some were just cuddling. Others smelled of sex. Gold eyes followed us, well mostly me, to the front stairs. Emily lead us up the stairs to a back bedroom. Moonlight flooded through the lace curtains. Someone had brought our bags in from Bran&#039;s car.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;This story has the same lead character as [[Cougar Town]] but I think it will stand alone. It takes place about 15 years later. It has adult content, some of it nonconsentual&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I hope Vivian won&#039;t be there.&amp;quot; John said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You know she will,&amp;quot; replied Branwen. &amp;quot;The conference is in the same city as her office. You need to tell her to either stop flirting with you, or date you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I tried that. She just laughed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bran, John and I were in Bran&#039;s Buick, driving from Syracuse to Rochester for an engineering convention. John, a tall, dark haired fellow, was in the passenger seat. I was in the back, behind Bran.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We were going to represent our employer, Leightner and Moody Engineering, at the convention. Bran and I were going to give a presentation about the success of our village streetscape project. I was the design engineer and responsible for the overall project. Bran had designed the sidewalks, landscaping, and drainage. John headed another design team, and was going to talk to prospective clients.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian is our Leightner and Moody&#039;s lead real estate lawyer. John had to work with Vivian because extensive right-of-way purchases were needed for his project.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Vivian has a history of flirting with John to the very limits of professional office behavior, and sometimes beyond. As soon as he responds, though, she gets frigid. It doesn&#039;t help John that Vivian is a gorgeous redhead. Anyone could see why John hated it. Unlike most people, however, I can tell she has a serious case of the hots for him. I can smell it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also know why she can&#039;t act on it. You see, Vivian has a secret. She is a werewolf. I can smell that, too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How can I smell it? I have a secret, too. I&#039;m a were-cougar. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I can sympathize with Vivian to some extent. Branwen used to flirt with me when she first joined the company. I kind of liked it, but I finally had to tell her to stop. I&#039;m pretty sure she was still crushing on me a little, though.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well at least her hair makes her easy to spot,&amp;quot; Bran said. &amp;quot;Don&#039;t worry. Bran and I will run interference for you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, the car&#039;s GPS beeped. John, in the passenger seat, looked at it and said, &amp;quot;The Thruway is closed ahead for some reason. Take the next exit. It looks like we&#039;re taking the back roads.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well, crap!&amp;quot; Bran said. &amp;quot;At least there will be a full moon tonight, so it&#039;ll be easier to see on the back roads.&amp;quot; I was already feeling the tingle of energy from the moon. Felines like me aren&#039;t as strongly tied to the moon as werewolves, but we still hear her call.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As we drove west through the upstate New York countryside, we were treated to a gorgeous sunset in front of us, and a moonrise behind us. We crested a hill and were greeted by the sight of an old farmhouse and barn across the valley, glowing in the light of the setting sun. As we dropped down into the shadow of the hill, I caught a flicker of motion off to the right. &amp;quot;Look out!&amp;quot; I yelled, just as a doe lept over the road. A grey blur that followed it crashed into the front of the car, cracked the windshield, and went over the roof.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Branwen slammed on the brakes hard and the ABS clattered like mad as the car slewed to a stop. We all got out. John went to check the damage to the car, and Bran looked for whatever we hit. As I stepped out, the scent hit me. Werewolves! &amp;quot;Get back in the car, NOW!&amp;quot; I yelled. She looked at me, then behind me, and screamed. Something slammed into the back of the head, and the world went red and black.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I came to with the throbbing head and nausea of a concussion. I part-changed to cougar and back to heal the damage, then assessed the situation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first thing I noticed was a damp basement odor, overlayed with the scents of wolves. Lots of wolves. I was on a cold, grimy stone floor. The light of a bare bulb showed that we were in a caged in an old basement, probably the farm we saw. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bran was curled up in a ball in the corner, sobbing and rocking back and forth. She reeked with fear. She has a severe dog phobia. She was attacked by one as a kid, and they put her on the edge of panic. Werewolves would scare any normal human. To a cynophobe like Branwen, they&#039;d be paralyzing. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Outside the bars were two male and two female werewolves. They were half-changed - still bipedal, but with fur and tails and fangs and thick blunt claws. They were downwind so I couldn&#039;t pick up their individual scents. If I could, it might have given me a clue about their intentions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I can hold my own against any single werewolf. With surprise on my side, maybe even two or three of them. My feline agility and sharp claws give me an edge. Four, with the rest of the pack upstairs, was out of the question. We are ambush hunters, stalking, jumping and pouncing. Wolves will chase their prey for miles until it drops from exhaustion. I could never outrun them. Fighting wasn&#039;t an option. I had to outthink them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A female with reddish fur dragged John out of the cage, and pinned him to the floor as a male shut and locked the door. She seemed familiar somehow, but I couldn&#039;t quite place it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She dug her claws into the front of John&#039;s chinos and ripped them open along with his boxers. She lowered her about inside the rent in his trousers and applied her long supple tongue to his crotch. John started to resist, but a growl and the firm but careful application of her fangs put an end to that. I guess I didn&#039;t need their scent after all.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was too late to help John. I pulled Bran close and wrapped my arms around her. She buried her head into the crook of my neck, sobbing. I had to calm her down. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Having gotten the results she wanted, the red wolf straddled John&#039;s hips and took him as he watched in horror. She gyrated her hips, milking him with her pussy while applying her paw-hand to her clit. Small whimpers from her throat son became loud moans. Moans became shreaks as she came. John, against his will, came too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She turned to the other female. &amp;quot;Emily, the other male is yours. The boss is going to want the woman, as usual.&amp;quot; Just then, the basement door opened, changing the airflow in the basement. I got a whiff of the female&#039;s scent. I should have known.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Emily came into the cage to get me. I gently set Bran on the floor and took a fighting stance between her and the wolf. &amp;quot;I admire your courage,&amp;quot; she said, &amp;quot;but you can&#039;t win. Come along and I&#039;ll be gentle.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I leaped into a spinning kick. Both feet collided with her chest. She slammed back into the bars. Before she could recover, I spun her around facing away from me, got her right arm into a half-nelson and wrapped my other hand around her throat, claws extended. Her eyed bulged. &amp;quot;Shh.&amp;quot; I said. &amp;quot;I don&#039;t want to hurt you.&amp;quot; Then, more louldy, &amp;quot;Vivian!&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian was walking towards the stairs with John over her shoulder. She spun to face me, handed John off to one of the males, and walked up to the cage. &amp;quot;How did you know?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You have a distinctive scent.&amp;quot; I said. At her puzzled look, I continued. &amp;quot;Wolves aren&#039;t the only dangerous creatures in the forest, don&#039;t you know.&amp;quot; That just confused her more. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed, showing her my gold cougar eyes, snout and ears. Light brown for covered my skin. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Amazing! I had no idea there were shifters besides us wolves ... Well, you obviously won&#039;t be joining our pack, but I don&#039;t think we need to worry. Let Emily go and join us for dinner. We&#039;re having venison.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I shook my head. &amp;quot;Viv, about Branwen. She&#039;s no good to you. She&#039;s phobic. Can&#039;t you smell it? Do you really want a pack member that goes batshit crazy every full moon? Give her to me and I&#039;ll change her. She&#039;ll be better off as a cougar. Heck, she loves cats. She breeds them. You&#039;ll be safer with her as a sane cougar than a manic wolf&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A male growled, &amp;quot;It&#039;s the law. She must join...&amp;quot; He fell silent at Vivian&#039;s gesture.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sighed. &amp;quot;Well, the boss won&#039;t like it, but you&#039;re probably right. But if she&#039;s still human in the morning, neither of you are leaving this cage.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I let Emily go with an apology, and said to Vivian, &amp;quot;Do you have any place with bit more privacy, and less grime?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian nodded. &amp;quot;Emily, put them in the safe room, please. Oh, and for letting him get the drop on you, you won&#039;t be joining tonight&#039;s howl.Instead, you&#039;ll guard them and make sure he changes her.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I carried Bran as Emily led us to a door on the other side of the basement. &amp;quot;You can stay in here. It&#039;s still a cell, but at least it has a real floor and a bed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She opened the door and motioned us in. The door was thick oak, riveted to iron bands. It closed behind us with a bang, and I heard heavy steel bolts slide home. The inside of the door was covered with gouges and claw marks. Some had bloodstains. The irony of the name safe room didn&#039;t escape me. This wasn&#039;t a refuge in a home invasion or tornado. They lock up deranged, out-of-control wolves to keep the rest of the pack safe. The kind Branwen would likely become if I failed. I shuddered at the thought. If she joined the pack, Bran would probably spend all her full moons in here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The bed was just a stained, ragged mattress in the corner, but it was better than the cold floor of the cell. I set Branwen down on it, sat next to her and pulled her onto my lap. She was still shaking in the grips of he panic attack, muttering &amp;quot;Dogs will kill me!&amp;quot; over and over. I couldn&#039;t do anything with her like this. I&#039;d sworn an oath to myself I&#039;d never change anyone without consent, like I was. Still, if the only other choice was let a wolf rape her... I hoped I could avoid that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The moon began to peek over the will of a barred window high on the far wall when I realized what to do. She loved cats. What&#039;s more calming than a kitty purring in your lap? I started purring softly. It seemed to help, so I increased the volume.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The patch of moonlight moved from the wall across from the window to the middle of the floor before Bran finally stirred. She sat up, looked around, and said in a panicky voice, &amp;quot;What happened? Where are we? Where&#039;s John? Are the dogs gone?&amp;quot; And then, &amp;quot;Did you hear a cat?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I sat up and wrapped my arms around her, and said, &amp;quot;It&#039;s okay. Well, it&#039;s far from okay, but it could be worse.&amp;quot; I took a breath. &amp;quot;Bran, we&#039;re being held prisoner. By werewolves.&amp;quot; She made a skeptical noise. &amp;quot;Yes, they are real. Very, very real. They have John. He&#039;s on his way to becoming one of them.&amp;quot; I paused for a breath. &amp;quot;I have good news and bad news for you. The bad news is, you&#039;re not leaving this room as a human. The good news is I convinced them to give you a choice. Let me change you, or they will, by force if need be&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Change me into what?&amp;quot; Her voice was skeptical.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Were-cougar, Or catamount or puma if you prefer.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;So, you&#039;re telling me we&#039;re captives of mythical creatures, you&#039;re a different mythical creature, and I have to choose between you.&amp;quot; Her tone was sarcastic and unbelieving. You expect me to believe that if you bite me, I&#039;ll magically turn into a cougar? Extraordinary claims require...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Extraordinary proof, I know. I&#039;ll get to that in a minute. I&#039;d rather not bite you. That&#039;s uncivilized. Other bodily fluids works just as well or better than saliva and are a lot less painful. And as for proof...&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I took her hand and pulled it, palm up, into the moonlight. I let go, and placed my hand in hers. A moment&#039;s concentration, and my fingernails lengthened into sharp, hooked claws. Tough but supple pads formed under my knuckles and the middle joint of my fingers. Tawny fur covered the rest up past my wrist. With a quick indrawn breath, she caressed my fur, prodded my pads, and gently ran fingertips over the points of my claws. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Is this real? An I dreaming? Drugged?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I kicked off my shoes, pulled off my socks and stood in the shaft of moonlight from the window. I faced her and unbuttoned my shirt, took it off and dropped it on the mattress. I could tell she liked what she saw. I&#039;m not muscle-bound by any means, but I am fit and toned. After unbuckling my belt and opening my fly, I hooked my thumbs over the waistbands of my pants and briefs and pushed them down to my ankles, changing as I did. I pulled my hind paws out of my pants and padded over to where she was sitting. Her astonishment was plainly written on her face. I head-butted her a few times, then touched my muzzle to her nose.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Smiling with amazement, she reached up and tentatively touched my long whiskers, then the fur on my cheek. &amp;quot;Oh. My. God,&amp;quot; she said. &amp;quot;You&#039;re real! You&#039;re effin&#039; real! She started scratching behind my ears with both hands. I couldn&#039;t help myself. I started purring. It&#039;s is the best thing of being one of the lesser cats. Lions, tigers, jaguars and leopards get the press, but they can&#039;t purr. We can&#039;t roar, but a snarl is almost as good, and purring is more fun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bran laughed out loud with delight. &amp;quot;That was you I heard,&amp;quot; she exclaimed. I had the wrong mouth shape to talk now, so I nodded yes. &amp;quot;So, I&#039;ll be able to change and purr and all this, too?&amp;quot; I nodded yes again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Tell me, Jake, what kind of bodily fluids were you talking about?&amp;quot; I looked pointedly at her crotch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh, really?&amp;quot; She said as she stood. &amp;quot;It&#039;s my turn.&amp;quot; She pulled the barrettes from her hair, letting it spill down her back. She unzipped the back of her dress and slowly let it drop to the ground. Her bra soon followed, and she stood in front of me wearing just panties, thigh-highs, and kitten-heeled boots.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Intellectually, I could see she was as attractive as I thought she&#039;d be, if a little on the round side. Sadly, the sight of a naked human just didn&#039;t do it for my cat brain. She reached around my rump and caressed my sheath. &amp;quot;No? Huh. Oh, I think I know how to get him to come out and play.&amp;quot; She pulled her panties down and kicked them off. The scent of her nethers tickled my nose. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I dropped my jaw a little and pulled up my upper lip, so her scent could reach the special scent receptors in the roof of my mouth. Yes, she was damp. Doing it with a cougar was a turn on for her? If that was her kink, I was the luckiest cat in the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She cupped her pussy with one hand, then pushed two fingers inside herself. She reached out and rubbed her damp fingers on my muzzle. The smell was intoxicating. I was almost instantly fully engorged. I kept my cock mostly human, for two reasons. To be honest, we felines just aren&#039;t well hung. Even lions are lacking in the package. Second, I really liked her and didn&#039;t want to hurt her. We have barbed, spiky penises I wanted to please her, not leave her a bloody mess down there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She turnec and knelt on the mattress with her back to me, then dropped to all fours. With a come-hither look over her shoulder, she spread her knees apart, fully exposing that wonderfully-scented moistness. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My feline brain wanted to jump her, but I paused. I was genuinely fond of this woman. I didn&#039;t want to fuck her. Well, I did, but I wanted to make love to her. I mean, I may be an animal, but I&#039;m not an &#039;&#039;animal.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I moved up alongside her, licked her on the nose, then shoved my shoulder into hers. She yelped and rolled onto her back. I stepped over her and licked her nose again. I rubbed my cheeks against hers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Scent making me, claiming me as yours?&amp;quot; she asked. I nodded yes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I took a few steps back and pushed my snout between her legs. She giggled as my whiskers brushed the inside of her thighs. &amp;quot;Stop that! It tickles!&amp;quot; I didn&#039;t stop. Instead, I licked her folds softly, afraid my rough tongue might be too abrasive. I gently worked my tongue inside her, then upwards until I felt her button. I took a deep breath, and let it out with a purr. Yeah that worked. I did it again. That worked really well! It wasn&#039;t long before she was moaning and writhing. I kept it up, purring, licking and sucking, careful of my teeth, until her thighs closed on my snout. She grabbed hold of my head and held me still until the tremors subsided.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She let me go, and rolled back onto all fours. With a pounce I covered her. I gently nipped her neck between my fangs, and dropped my hips to take her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Aaaand,&#039;&#039; I missed. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pussy pussies are farther back than a woman&#039;s, just below the bung. It was kind of embarrassing. I was glad my fur covered my embarrassment. Before I could try again, she reached back and grasped me. After a few strokes with her hand, she pulled me down and forward and guided me inside her. Fuck! I thought. She actually &#039;&#039;wants&#039;&#039; this?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I started pumping into her. I had not had sex with a human woman since I was changed, so I was a bit worried that I&#039;d do it wrong. I wanted it to feel good for her. I must have been doing something right, she was soon moaning again. Or maybe it was her hypothetical cat fetish. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She moved with me, pushing back into my thrusts to take me fully inside herself, moaning with each one. The loudness and pitch increased until she yelped and I felt her contracting around me. That took me over the edge. Along with my load, I felt a burst of my were-spirit, the energy that enables us to change, surge out of me into her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That&#039;s what actually would turn her, not the exchange of bodily fluids from sex or a bite. It triggered another, stronger orgasm in her. She collapsed onto the bed, and I fell on top of her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a minute. I started the change back to human. She felt my body shifting against her, and rolled over. &amp;quot;Don&#039;t change,&amp;quot; She said. &amp;quot;I like you like this.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed. I was still furred and clawed and snouted, but I could speak and wrap my arms around her. &amp;quot;Will this do? This way we can talk and cuddle.&amp;quot; I pulled her close, nuzzled her ear and purred.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mmm. I&#039;m going to have ask you to stop that. Sometime around 3 in the afternoon, I think.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Our presentation is at 2,&amp;quot; I replied.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Fuck the presentation!&amp;quot; She said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I&#039;d rather fuck you again. Besides, how do you have sex with a Powerpoint file?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, there was a knock on the door. The bolt slid back, and as the door opened, I put an arm across Bran&#039;s breasts, and draped my tail over her privates. Emily looked in and chuckled. &amp;quot;You&#039;re such a gentleman. Anyway, now that that&#039;s done, you can come upstairs and sleep in the guest room if you want. It has a real bed, pillows, and windows, and all that.&amp;quot; She looked at me and said, &amp;quot;Could you stay like that, so the pack can see you and smell you and know you really are a cougar?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We gathered our things. Bran threw her dress over her head. I hooked a thumb claw into the hole in the end of the zipper pull, and pulled it up for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The stairs were steep enough that Emily&#039;s butt was even with my nose. A trail of wolfy lust musk wafted behind her. I doubted Bran could smell it, but I&#039;d have to tell her about the different meaning of privacy among shapeshifters. With our better hearing and smell, everyone knows who&#039;s doing who. We really can&#039;t hide it. Emily must have heard everything we did, and maybe even smelled it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first floor was littered with puppy piles. Some were just cuddling. Others smelled of sex. Gold eyes followed us, well mostly me, to the front stairs. Emily lead us up the stairs to a back bedroom. Moonlight flooded through the lace curtains. Someone had brought our bags in from Bran&#039;s car.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;This story has the same lead character as [[Cougar Town]] but I think it will stand alone. It takes place about 15 years later. It has adult content, some of it nonconsentual&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I hope Vivian won&#039;t be there.&amp;quot; John said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You know she will,&amp;quot; replied Branwen. &amp;quot;The conference is in the same city as her office. You need to tell her to either stop flirting with you, or date you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I tried that. She just laughed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bran, John and I were in Bran&#039;s Buick, driving from Syracuse to Rochester for an engineering convention. John, a tall, dark haired fellow, was in the passenger seat. I was in the back, behind Bran.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We were going to represent our employer, Leightner and Moody Engineering, at the convention. Bran and I were going to give a presentation about the success of our village streetscape project. I was the design engineer and responsible for the overall project. Bran had designed the sidewalks, landscaping, and drainage. John headed another design team, and was going to talk to prospective clients.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian is our Leightner and Moody&#039;s lead real estate lawyer. John had to work with Vivian because extensive right-of-way purchases were needed for his project.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Vivian has a history of flirting with John to the very limits of professional office behavior, and sometimes beyond. As soon as he responds, though, she gets frigid. It doesn&#039;t help John that Vivian is a gorgeous redhead. Anyone could see why John hated it. Unlike most people, however, I can tell she has a serious case of the hots for him. I can smell it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also know why she can&#039;t act on it. You see, Vivian has a secret. She is a werewolf. I can smell that, too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How can I smell it? I have a secret, too. I&#039;m a were-cougar. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I can sympathize with Vivian to some extent. Branwen used to flirt with me when she first joined the company. I kind of liked it, but I finally had to tell her to stop. I&#039;m pretty sure she was still crushing on me a little, though.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well at least her hair makes her easy to spot,&amp;quot; Bran said. &amp;quot;Don&#039;t worry. Bran and I will run interference for you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, the car&#039;s GPS beeped. John, in the passenger seat, looked at it and said, &amp;quot;The Thruway is closed ahead for some reason. Take the next exit. It looks like we&#039;re taking the back roads.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well, crap!&amp;quot; Bran said. &amp;quot;At least there will be a full moon tonight, so it&#039;ll be easier to see on the back roads.&amp;quot; I was already feeling the tingle of energy from the moon. Felines like me aren&#039;t as strongly tied to the moon as werewolves, but we still hear her call.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As we drove west through the upstate New York countryside, we were treated to a gorgeous sunset in front of us, and a moonrise behind us. We crested a hill and were greeted by the sight of an old farmhouse and barn across the valley, glowing in the light of the setting sun. As we dropped down into the shadow of the hill, I caught a flicker of motion off to the right. &amp;quot;Look out!&amp;quot; I yelled, just as a doe lept over the road. A grey blur that followed it crashed into the front of the car, cracked the windshield, and went over the roof.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Branwen slammed on the brakes hard and the ABS clattered like mad as the car slewed to a stop. We all got out. John went to check the damage to the car, and Bran looked for whatever we hit. As I stepped out, the scent hit me. Werewolves! &amp;quot;Get back in the car, NOW!&amp;quot; I yelled. She looked at me, then behind me, and screamed. Something slammed into the back of the head, and the world went red and black.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I came to with the throbbing head and nausea of a concussion. I part-changed to cougar and back to heal the damage, then assessed the situation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first thing I noticed was a damp basement odor, overlayed with the scents of wolves. Lots of wolves. I was on a cold, grimy stone floor. The light of a bare bulb showed that we were in a caged in an old basement, probably the farm we saw. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bran was curled up in a ball in the corner, sobbing and rocking back and forth. She reeked with fear. She has a severe dog phobia. She was attacked by one as a kid, and they put her on the edge of panic. Werewolves would scare any normal human. To a cynophobe like Branwen, they&#039;d be paralyzing. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Outside the bars were two male and two female werewolves. They were half-changed - still bipedal, but with fur and tails and fangs and thick blunt claws. They were downwind so I couldn&#039;t pick up their individual scents. If I could, it might have given me a clue about their intentions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I can hold my own against any single werewolf. With surprise on my side, maybe even two or three of them. My feline agility and sharp claws give me an edge. Four, with the rest of the pack upstairs, was out of the question. We are ambush hunters, stalking, jumping and pouncing. Wolves will chase their prey for miles until it drops from exhaustion. I could never outrun them. Fighting wasn&#039;t an option. I had to outthink them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A female with reddish fur dragged John out of the cage, and pinned him to the floor as a male shut and locked the door. She seemed familiar somehow, but I couldn&#039;t quite place it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She dug her claws into the front of John&#039;s chinos and ripped them open along with his boxers. She lowered her about inside the rent in his trousers and applied her long supple tongue to his crotch. John started to resist, but a growl and the firm but careful application of her fangs put an end to that. I guess I didn&#039;t need their scent after all.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was too late to help John. I pulled Bran close and wrapped my arms around her. She buried her head into the crook of my neck, sobbing. I had to calm her down. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Having gotten the results she wanted, the red wolf straddled John&#039;s hips and took him as he watched in horror. She gyrated her hips, milking him with her pussy while applying her paw-hand to her clit. Small whimpers from her throat son became loud moans. Moans became shreaks as she came. John, against his will, came too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She turned to the other female. &amp;quot;Emily, the other male is yours. The boss is going to want the woman, as usual.&amp;quot; Just then, the basement door opened, changing the airflow in the basement. I got a whiff of the female&#039;s scent. I should have known.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Emily came into the cage to get me. I gently set Bran on the floor and took a fighting stance between her and the wolf. &amp;quot;I admire your courage,&amp;quot; she said, &amp;quot;but you can&#039;t win. Come along and I&#039;ll be gentle.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I leaped into a spinning kick. Both feet collided with her chest. She slammed back into the bars. Before she could recover, I spun her around facing away from me, got her right arm into a half-nelson and wrapped my other hand around her throat, claws extended. Her eyed bulged. &amp;quot;Shh.&amp;quot; I said. &amp;quot;I don&#039;t want to hurt you.&amp;quot; Then, more louldy, &amp;quot;Vivian!&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian was walking towards the stairs with John over her shoulder. She spun to face me, handed John off to one of the males, and walked up to the cage. &amp;quot;How did you know?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You have a distinctive scent.&amp;quot; I said. At her puzzled look, I continued. &amp;quot;Wolves aren&#039;t the only dangerous creatures in the forest, don&#039;t you know.&amp;quot; That just confused her more. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed, showing her my gold cougar eyes, snout and ears. Light brown for covered my skin. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Amazing! I had no idea there were shifters besides us wolves ... Well, you obviously won&#039;t be joining our pack, but I don&#039;t think we need to worry. Let Emily go and join us for dinner. We&#039;re having venison.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I shook my head. &amp;quot;Viv, about Branwen. She&#039;s no good to you. She&#039;s phobic. Can&#039;t you smell it? Do you really want a pack member that goes batshit crazy every full moon? Give her to me and I&#039;ll change her. She&#039;ll be better off as a cougar. Heck, she loves cats. She breeds them. You&#039;ll be safer with her as a sane cougar than a manic wolf&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A male growled, &amp;quot;It&#039;s the law. She must join...&amp;quot; He fell silent at Vivian&#039;s gesture.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sighed. &amp;quot;Well, the boss won&#039;t like it, but you&#039;re probably right. But if she&#039;s still human in the morning, neither of you are leaving this cage.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I let Emily go with an apology, and said to Vivian, &amp;quot;Do you have any place with bit more privacy, and less grime?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian nodded. &amp;quot;Emily, put them in the safe room, please. Oh, and for letting him get the drop on you, you won&#039;t be joining tonight&#039;s howl.Instead, you&#039;ll guard them and make sure he changes her.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I carried Bran as Emily led us to a door on the other side of the basement. &amp;quot;You can stay in here. It&#039;s still a cell, but at least it has a real floor and a bed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She opened the door and motioned us in. The door was thick oak, riveted to iron bands. It closed behind us with a bang, and I heard heavy steel bolts slide home. The inside of the door was covered with gouges and claw marks. Some had bloodstains. The irony of the name safe room didn&#039;t escape me. This wasn&#039;t a refuge in a home invasion or tornado. They lock up deranged, out-of-control wolves to keep the rest of the pack safe. The kind Branwen would likely become if I failed. I shuddered at the thought. If she joined the pack, Bran would probably spend all her full moons in here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The bed was just a stained, ragged mattress in the corner, but it was better than the cold floor of the cell. I set Branwen down on it, sat next to her and pulled her onto my lap. She was still shaking in the grips of he panic attack, muttering &amp;quot;Dogs will kill me!&amp;quot; over and over. I couldn&#039;t do anything with her like this. I&#039;d sworn an oath to myself I&#039;d never change anyone without consent, like I was. Still, if the only other choice was let a wolf rape her... I hoped I could avoid that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The moon began to peek over the will of a barred window high on the far wall when I realized what to do. She loved cats. What&#039;s more calming than a kitty purring in your lap? I started purring softly. It seemed to help, so I increased the volume.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The patch of moonlight moved from the wall across from the window to the middle of the floor before Bran finally stirred. She sat up, looked around, and said in a panicky voice, &amp;quot;What happened? Where are we? Where&#039;s John? Are the dogs gone?&amp;quot; And then, &amp;quot;Did you hear a cat?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I sat up and wrapped my arms around her, and said, &amp;quot;It&#039;s okay. Well, it&#039;s far from okay, but it could be worse.&amp;quot; I took a breath. &amp;quot;Bran, we&#039;re being held prisoner. By werewolves.&amp;quot; She made a skeptical noise. &amp;quot;Yes, they are real. Very, very real. They have John. He&#039;s on his way to becoming one of them.&amp;quot; I paused for a breath. &amp;quot;I have good news and bad news for you. The bad news is, you&#039;re not leaving this room as a human. The good news is I convinced them to give you a choice. Let me change you, or they will, by force if need be&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;And what are you?&amp;quot; Her voice was skeptical.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Were-cougar, Or catamount or puma if you prefer.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;So, you&#039;re telling me we&#039;re captives of mythical creatures, you turn into a different mythical creature on the full moon, and I have to choose between you.&amp;quot; Her tone was sarcastic and unbelieving.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yes. Well, not necessarily on the full moon. Whenever I want to, really.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;So, you expect me to believe that if I let you bite me, I&#039;ll magically turn into a cougar? You know what they say about extraordinary claims.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well, first off, I&#039;d rather not have to bite you. That&#039;s uncivilized. Sex works just as well, and it&#039;s more fun. And as for extraordinary proof...&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I took her hand and pulled palm up into the moonlight. I let go, and placed my hand in hers. A moment&#039;s concentration, and my fingernails lengthened into sharp, hooked claws. Tough but supple pads formed under my knuckles and the middle joint of my fingers. Tawny fur covered the rest up past my wrist. With a quick indrawn breath, she caressed my fur, prodded my pads, and gently ran fingertips over the points of my class. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Is this real?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I kicked off my shoes, pulled off my socks and stood in the shaft of moonlight from the window. I faced her and unbuttoned my shirt, took it off and dropped it on the mattress. I could tell she liked what she saw. One perk of what we are is heightened metabolism. I&#039;m not muscle-bound by any means, but I am slim and toned. After unbuckling my belt and opening my fly, I hooked my thumbs over the waistbands of my pants and briefs and pushed them down to my ankles, changing as I did. I pulled my hind paws out of my pants and padded over to where she was sitting. Her astonishment was plainly written on her face. I head-butted her a few times, then touched my muzzle to her nose.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Smiling with amazement, she reached up and tentatively touched my long whiskers, then the fur on my cheek. &amp;quot;Oh. My. God,&amp;quot; she said. &amp;quot;You&#039;re real! You&#039;re effin&#039; real! She started scratching behind my ears with both hands. I couldn&#039;t help myself. I started purring. It&#039;s is the best thing of being one of the lesser cats. Lions, tigers, jaguars and leopards get the press, but they can&#039;t purr. We can&#039;t roar, but a snarl is almost as good, and purring is more fun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bran laughed out loud with delight. &amp;quot;That was you I heard,&amp;quot; she exclaimed. I had the wrong mouth shape to talk now, so I nodded yes. &amp;quot;So, if I fuck you, I&#039;ll be able to change and purr and all this, too?&amp;quot; I nodded yes again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She stood up, said &amp;quot;It&#039;s my turn.&amp;quot; She pulled the barrettes from her hair, letting it spill down her back. She unzipped the back of her dress and slowly let it drop to the ground. Her bra soon followed, and she stood in front of me wearing just panties, thigh-highs, and kitten-heeled boots.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Intellectually, I could see she was really quite attractive, if a little on the round side. The sight of a naked human just didn&#039;t do it for my cat brain. She reached around my rump and caressed my sheath. &amp;quot;No? Huh. Oh, I think I know how to get him to come out and play.&amp;quot; She pulled her panties down and kicked them off. The scent of her nethers tickled my nose. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I dropped my jaw a little and pulled up my upper lip, so her scent could reach the special scent receptors in the roof of my mouth. Yes, she was damp. Doing it with a cougar was a turn on for her? If that was her kink, I was the luckiest guy in the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She cupped her pussy with one hand, then pushed two fingers inside herself. Then she reached out and rubbed her wetness on my muzzle. The smell was intoxicating. I was almost instantly fully engorged. I kept my cock mostly human, for two reasons. To be honest, we felines just aren&#039;t well hung. Even lions are lacking in the package. Second, I really liked her and didn&#039;t want to hurt her. We have barbed, spiky penises that would probably leave her a bloody mess down there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She turnec and stepped over to the mattress. She knelt with her back to me, then dropped to all fours. With a come-hither look over her shoulder, she spread her knees apart, fully exposing that wonderfully-scented moistness. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My feline brain wanted to jump her, but I paused. I was genuinely fond of this woman. I didn&#039;t want to fuck. I wanted to make love to her. I mean, I may be an animal, but I&#039;m not an &#039;&#039;animal.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I moved up alongside her, licked her on the nose, then skinned my shoulder into hers. She yelped and rolled onto her back. I stepped over her and licked her nose again. I rubbed my cheeks against hers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Scent making me, claiming me as yours?&amp;quot; she asked. I nodded yes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I stepped backwards, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I pushed my snout between her legs. She giggled as my whiskers brushed the inside of her thighs. &amp;quot;Stop that! That tickles!&amp;quot; I didn&#039;t stop. Instead, I licked her folds softly, since my rough tongue might be too abrasive. I gently worked my tongue inside her, then upwards until I felt her button. I took a deep breath, and let it out with a purr. Yeah that worked. It wasn&#039;t long before she was moaning and writhing. I kept it up, purring, licking and sucking, careful of my teeth, until her thighs closed on my about. She grabbed hold of my head and held me still until the tremors subsided.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a pounce I covered her. I gently nipped her neck between my fangs, and dropped my hips to take her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Aaaand,&#039;&#039; I missed. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pussy pussies are farther back than a woman&#039;s, just below the bung. It was kind of embarrassing. I was glad my face was covered in fur so she couldn&#039;t see me blush. Before I could try again, she reached back and grasped me. After a few strokes with her hand, she pulled me down and forward and guided me inside her. Fuck! I thought. She actually &#039;&#039;wants&#039;&#039; this?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I started pumping into her. I had actually never had sex with a human woman since I was changed, so I was a bit worried that I&#039;d do it wrong. I wanted it to feel good for her. I must have been doing something right, she was soon moaning again. Or maybe it was her hypothetical cat fetish. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She moved with me, pushing back into my thrusts to take me fully inside herself, moaning with each one. The loudness and pitch increased until she yelped and I felt her contracting around me. That took me over the edge. Along with my load, I felt a burst of my were-energy, the energy that enables us to change, surge out of me into her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That&#039;s what actually would turn her, not the exchange of bodily fluids from sex or a bite. It triggered another, stronger orgasm in her. She collapsed onto the bed, and I fell on top of her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a minute. I started the change back to human. She felt my body shifting against her, and rolled over. &amp;quot;Don&#039;t change,&amp;quot; She said. &amp;quot;I like you like this.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed. I was still furred and clawed and snouted, but I could speak and wrap my arms around her. &amp;quot;Will this do? This way we can talk and cuddle.&amp;quot; I pulled her close, nuzzled her ear and purred.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mmm. I&#039;m going to have ask you to stop that. Sometime around 3 in the afternoon, I think.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Our presentation is at 2,&amp;quot; I replied.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Fuck the presentation!&amp;quot; She said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I&#039;d rather fuck you again. Besides, how do you have sex with a Powerpoint file?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, there was a knock on the door. The bolt slid back, and Emily stuck her head in. I put an arm across Bran&#039;s breasts, and draped my tail over her privates. Emily chuckled. &amp;quot;You&#039;re such a gentleman. Anyway, now that that&#039;s done, you can come upstairs and sleep in the guest room if you want. It has a real bed, and windows, and all that.&amp;quot; She looked at me and said, &amp;quot;Could you stay like that, so the pack can see you and smell you and know you really are a cougar.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We gathered our things. Bran threw her dress over her head. I hooked a thumb claw into the hole in the end of the zipper pull, and pulled it up for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The stairs were steep enough that Emily&#039;s nude butt was even with my eyes. A trail of wolfy lust musk wafted behind her. I doubted Bran could smell it, but I&#039;d have to tell her about the different meaning of privacy among shapeshifters. With our better hearing and smell, everyone knows who&#039;s doing who. We really can&#039;t hide it. Emily must have heard everything we did, and maybe even smelled it. I wondered what Bran would say when she found out I would lighten her workload when she was PMSing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first floor was littered with puppy piles of wolves. Some were just cuddling. Others smelled of sex. Gold eyes followed us, well mostly me, to the front stairs. Emily lead us up the stairs to a back bedroom. Moonlight flooded through the lace curtains. Our bags were by the dresser.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;This story has the same lead character as [[Cougar Town]] but I think it will stand alone. It takes place about 15 years later. It has adult content, some of it nonconsentual&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I hope Vivian won&#039;t be there.&amp;quot; John said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You know she will,&amp;quot; replied Branwen. &amp;quot;The conference is in the same city as her office. You need to tell her to either stop flirting with you, or date you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I tried that. She just laughed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bran, John and I were in Bran&#039;s Buick, driving from Syracuse to Rochester for an engineering convention. John, a tall, dark haired fellow, was in the passenger seat. I was in the back, behind Bran.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We were going to represent our employer, Leightner and Moody Engineering, at the convention. Bran and I were going to give a presentation about the success of our village streetscape project. I was the design engineer and responsible for the overall project. Bran had designed the sidewalks, landscaping, and drainage. John headed another design team, and was going to talk to prospective clients.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian is our Leightner and Moody&#039;s lead real estate lawyer. John had to work with Vivian because extensive right-of-way purchases were needed for his project.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Vivian has a history of flirting with John to the very limits of professional office behavior, and sometimes beyond. As soon as he responds, though, she gets frigid. It doesn&#039;t help John that Vivian is a gorgeous redhead. Anyone could see why John hated it. Unlike most people, however, I can tell she has a serious case of the hots for him. Her scent changes around him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also know why she can&#039;t act on it. You see, Vivian has a secret. She is a werewolf. I can smell that, too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How can I tell? I also have a secret. I&#039;m a were-cougar. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I can sympathize with Vivian to some extent. Bran used to flirt with me when she first joined the company. I kind of liked it, but I finally had to tell her to stop. I&#039;m pretty sure she was still crushing on me a little, though.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well at least her hair makes her easy to spot,&amp;quot; Bran said. &amp;quot;Don&#039;t worry. Bran and I will run interference for you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, the car&#039;s GPS beeped. John, in the passenger seat, looked at it and said, &amp;quot;The Thruway is closed ahead for some reason. Take the next exit. It looks like we&#039;re taking the back roads.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh. crap&amp;quot; Bran said. &amp;quot;At least there will be a full moon tonight, so it&#039;ll be easier to see on the back roads.&amp;quot; I was already feeling the tingle of energy from the moon. Felines like me aren&#039;t as strongly tied to the moon as werewolves, but we still hear her call.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As we drove west through the upstate New York countryside, we were treated to a gorgeous sunset in front of us, and a moonrise behind us. We crested a hill and were greeted by the sight of an old farmhouse and barn across the valley, glowing in the light of the setting sun. As we dropped down into the shadow of the hill, I caught a flicker of motion off to the right. &amp;quot;Look out!&amp;quot; I yelled, just as a doe lept over the road. A grey blur that followed it crashed into the front of the car, cracked the windshield, and went over the roof.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Branwen slammed on the brakes hard and the ABS clattered like mad as the car slewed to a stop. We all got out. John went to check the damage to the car, and Bran looked for whatever we hit. As I stepped out, the scent hit me. Werewolves! &amp;quot;Get back in the car, NOW!&amp;quot; I yelled. She looked at me, then behind me, and screamed. Something slammed into the back of the head, and the world went red and black.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I came to with the throbbing head and nausea of a concussion. I part-changed to cougar and back to heal the damage, then assessed the situation. The first thing I noticed was the scent of Branwen&#039;s fear. She has a severe dog phobia. She was attacked by one as a kid, and is on the edge of panic whenever one is near. Werewolves would scare any normal human. To a cynophobe like Branwen, they&#039;d be paralyzing. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The second thing was a damp basement smell, and a cold, grimy stone floor below me. The light of a bare bulb showed that we were in a caged in an old basement, probably the farm we saw. Bran was curled up in a ball in the corner, sobbing and rocking back and forth. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Outside the bars were two male and two female werewolves. They were half-changed - still bipedal, but with fur and tails and fangs and thick blunt claws. They were downwind and I couldn&#039;t pick up their scent. If I could, it might have give  a clue about their intentions. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A female with reddish fur dragged John out of the cage, and pinned him to the floor as a male shut and locked the door. She seemed familiar somehow, but I couldn&#039;t quite place it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She dug her claws into the front of John&#039;s chinos and ripped them open along with his boxers. She lowered her head and applied her long supple tongue to his crotch. John started to resist, but a growl and the firm but careful application of her fangs put an end to that. I guess I didn&#039;t need their scent after all.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was too late to help John. I pulled Bran close and wrapped my arms around her. She buried her head into the crook of my neck, sobbing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Having gotten the results she wanted, the red wolf straddled John&#039;s hips and took him as he watched in horror. She gyrated her hips, milking him with her pussy while applying her paw-hand to her clit. Small whimpers came from her throat Soon became loud moans. Moans became shreaks as she came. John, against his will, came too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She turned to the other female. &amp;quot;Emily, the other male is yours. The boss is going to want the woman, as usual.&amp;quot; Just then, the basement door opened, changing the airflow in the basement. I got a whiff of the female&#039;s scent. I should have known.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I can hold my own against any single werewolf. With surprise on my side, maybe even two or three of them. My feline agility and sharp claws give me an edge. Four of them, with the rest of the pack upstairs, was out of the question. We are ambush hunters, stalking, jumping and pouncing. Wolves will run down their prey for miles until it drops from exhaustion. I could never outrun them. Fighting wasn&#039;t an option. I had to outthink them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Emily came into the cage to get me. I gently set Bran on the floor and took a fighting stance between her and the wolf. &amp;quot;I admire your courage,&amp;quot; she said, &amp;quot;but you can&#039;t win. Come along and I&#039;ll be gentle.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I leaped into a spinning kick. Both feet collided with her chest. She slammed back into the bars. Before she could recover, I spun her around facing away from me, got her right arm into a half-nelson and wrapped my other hand around her throat, claws extended. Her eyed bulged. &amp;quot;Shh.&amp;quot; I said. &amp;quot;I don&#039;t want to hurt you.&amp;quot; Then, more louldy, &amp;quot;Vivian!&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian was walking towards the stairs with John over her shoulder. She spun to face me, handed John off to one of the males, and walked up to the cage. &amp;quot;How did you know?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You have a distinctive scent.&amp;quot; I said. At her puzzled look, I continued. &amp;quot;Wolves aren&#039;t the only dangerous creatures in the forest, don&#039;t you know.&amp;quot; That just confused her more. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed, showing her my gold cougar eyes, snout and ears. Light brown for covered my skin. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Amazing! I had no idea there were shifters besides us wolves ... Well, you obviously won&#039;t be joining our pack, but I don&#039;t think we need to worry. Let Emily go and join us for dinner. We&#039;re having venison.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I shook my head. &amp;quot;Viv, about Branwen. She&#039;s no good to you. She&#039;s phobic. Can&#039;t you smell it? Do you really want a pack member that goes batshit crazy every full moon? Give her to me and I&#039;ll change her. She&#039;ll be better off as a cougar. Heck, she loves cats. She breeds them. You&#039;ll be safer with her as a sane cougar than a manic wolf&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A male growled, &amp;quot;It&#039;s the law. She must join...&amp;quot; He fell silent at Vivian&#039;s gesture.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sighed. &amp;quot;Well, the boss won&#039;t like it, but you&#039;re probably right. But if she&#039;s still human in the morning, neither of you are leaving this cage.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I let Emily go with an apology, and said to Vivian, &amp;quot;Do you have any place with bit more privacy, and less grime?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian nodded. &amp;quot;Emily, put them in the safe room, please. Oh, and for letting him get the drop on you, you won&#039;t be joining tonight&#039;s howl.Instead, you&#039;ll guard them and make sure he changes her.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I carried Bran as Emily led us to a door on the other side of the basement. &amp;quot;You can stay in here. It&#039;s still a cell, but at least it has a real floor and a bed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She opened the door and motioned us in. The door was thick oak, riveted to iron bands. It closed behind us with a bang, and I heard heavy steel bolts slide home. The inside of the door was covered with gouges and claw marks. Some had bloodstains. The irony of the name safe room didn&#039;t escape me. This wasn&#039;t a refuge in a home invasion or tornado. They lock up deranged, out-of-control wolves to keep the rest of the pack safe. The kind Branwen would likely become if I failed. I shuddered at the thought. If she joined the pack, Bran would probably spend all her full moons in here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The bed was just a stained, ragged mattress in the corner, but it was better than the cold floor of the cell. I set Branwen down on it, sat next to her and pulled her onto my lap. She was still shaking in the grips of he panic attack, muttering &amp;quot;Dogs will kill me!&amp;quot; over and over. I couldn&#039;t do anything with her like this. I&#039;d sworn an oath to myself I&#039;d never change anyone without consent, like I was. Still, if the only other choice was let a wolf rape her... I hoped I could avoid that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The moon began to peek over the will of a barred window high on the far wall when I realized what to do. She loved cats. What&#039;s more calming than a kitty purring in your lap? I started purring softly. It seemed to help, so I increased the volume.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The patch of moonlight moved from the wall across from the window to the middle of the floor before Bran finally stirred. She sat up, looked around, and said in a panicky voice, &amp;quot;What happened? Where are we? Where&#039;s John? Are the dogs gone?&amp;quot; And then, &amp;quot;Did you hear a cat?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I sat up and wrapped my arms around her, and said, &amp;quot;It&#039;s okay. Well, it&#039;s far from okay, but it could be worse.&amp;quot; I took a breath. &amp;quot;Bran, we&#039;re being held prisoner. By werewolves.&amp;quot; She made a skeptical noise. &amp;quot;Yes, they are real. Very, very real. They have John. He&#039;s on his way to becoming one of them.&amp;quot; I paused for a breath. &amp;quot;I have good news and bad news for you. The bad news is, you&#039;re not leaving this room as a human. The good news is I convinced them to give you a choice. Let me change you, or they will, by force if need be&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;And what are you?&amp;quot; Her voice was skeptical.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Were-cougar, Or catamount or puma if you prefer.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;So, you&#039;re telling me we&#039;re captives of mythical creatures, you turn into a different mythical creature on the full moon, and I have to choose between you.&amp;quot; Her tone was sarcastic and unbelieving.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yes. Well, not necessarily on the full moon. Whenever I want to, really.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;So, you expect me to believe that if I let you bite me, I&#039;ll magically turn into a cougar? You know what they say about extraordinary claims.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well, first off, I&#039;d rather not have to bite you. That&#039;s uncivilized. Sex works just as well, and it&#039;s more fun. And as for extraordinary proof...&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I took her hand and pulled palm up into the moonlight. I let go, and placed my hand in hers. A moment&#039;s concentration, and my fingernails lengthened into sharp, hooked claws. Tough but supple pads formed under my knuckles and the middle joint of my fingers. Tawny fur covered the rest up past my wrist. With a quick indrawn breath, she caressed my fur, prodded my pads, and gently ran fingertips over the points of my class. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Is this real?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I kicked off my shoes, pulled off my socks and stood in the shaft of moonlight from the window. I faced her and unbuttoned my shirt, took it off and dropped it on the mattress. I could tell she liked what she saw. One perk of what we are is heightened metabolism. I&#039;m not muscle-bound by any means, but I am slim and toned. After unbuckling my belt and opening my fly, I hooked my thumbs over the waistbands of my pants and briefs and pushed them down to my ankles, changing as I did. I pulled my hind paws out of my pants and padded over to where she was sitting. Her astonishment was plainly written on her face. I head-butted her a few times, then touched my muzzle to her nose.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Smiling with amazement, she reached up and tentatively touched my long whiskers, then the fur on my cheek. &amp;quot;Oh. My. God,&amp;quot; she said. &amp;quot;You&#039;re real! You&#039;re effin&#039; real! She started scratching behind my ears with both hands. I couldn&#039;t help myself. I started purring. It&#039;s is the best thing of being one of the lesser cats. Lions, tigers, jaguars and leopards get the press, but they can&#039;t purr. We can&#039;t roar, but a snarl is almost as good, and purring is more fun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bran laughed out loud with delight. &amp;quot;That was you I heard,&amp;quot; she exclaimed. I had the wrong mouth shape to talk now, so I nodded yes. &amp;quot;So, if I fuck you, I&#039;ll be able to change and purr and all this, too?&amp;quot; I nodded yes again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She stood up, said &amp;quot;It&#039;s my turn.&amp;quot; She pulled the barrettes from her hair, letting it spill down her back. She unzipped the back of her dress and slowly let it drop to the ground. Her bra soon followed, and she stood in front of me wearing just panties, thigh-highs, and kitten-heeled boots.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Intellectually, I could see she was really quite attractive, if a little on the round side. The sight of a naked human just didn&#039;t do it for my cat brain. She reached around my rump and caressed my sheath. &amp;quot;No? Huh. Oh, I think I know how to get him to come out and play.&amp;quot; She pulled her panties down and kicked them off. The scent of her nethers tickled my nose. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I dropped my jaw a little and pulled up my upper lip, so her scent could reach the special scent receptors in the roof of my mouth. Yes, she was damp. Doing it with a cougar was a turn on for her? If that was her kink, I was the luckiest guy in the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She cupped her pussy with one hand, then pushed two fingers inside herself. Then she reached out and rubbed her wetness on my muzzle. The smell was intoxicating. I was almost instantly fully engorged. I kept my cock mostly human, for two reasons. To be honest, we felines just aren&#039;t well hung. Even lions are lacking in the package. Second, I really liked her and didn&#039;t want to hurt her. We have barbed, spiky penises that would probably leave her a bloody mess down there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She turnec and stepped over to the mattress. She knelt with her back to me, then dropped to all fours. With a come-hither look over her shoulder, she spread her knees apart, fully exposing that wonderfully-scented moistness. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My feline brain wanted to jump her, but I paused. I was genuinely fond of this woman. I didn&#039;t want to fuck. I wanted to make love to her. I mean, I may be an animal, but I&#039;m not an &#039;&#039;animal.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I moved up alongside her, licked her on the nose, then skinned my shoulder into hers. She yelped and rolled onto her back. I stepped over her and licked her nose again. I rubbed my cheeks against hers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Scent making me, claiming me as yours?&amp;quot; she asked. I nodded yes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I stepped backwards, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I pushed my snout between her legs. She giggled as my whiskers brushed the inside of her thighs. &amp;quot;Stop that! That tickles!&amp;quot; I didn&#039;t stop. Instead, I licked her folds softly, since my rough tongue might be too abrasive. I gently worked my tongue inside her, then upwards until I felt her button. I took a deep breath, and let it out with a purr. Yeah that worked. It wasn&#039;t long before she was moaning and writhing. I kept it up, purring, licking and sucking, careful of my teeth, until her thighs closed on my about. She grabbed hold of my head and held me still until the tremors subsided.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a pounce I covered her. I gently nipped her neck between my fangs, and dropped my hips to take her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Aaaand,&#039;&#039; I missed. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pussy pussies are farther back than a woman&#039;s, just below the bung. It was kind of embarrassing. I was glad my face was covered in fur so she couldn&#039;t see me blush. Before I could try again, she reached back and grasped me. After a few strokes with her hand, she pulled me down and forward and guided me inside her. Fuck! I thought. She actually &#039;&#039;wants&#039;&#039; this?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I started pumping into her. I had actually never had sex with a human woman since I was changed, so I was a bit worried that I&#039;d do it wrong. I wanted it to feel good for her. I must have been doing something right, she was soon moaning again. Or maybe it was her hypothetical cat fetish. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She moved with me, pushing back into my thrusts to take me fully inside herself, moaning with each one. The loudness and pitch increased until she yelped and I felt her contracting around me. That took me over the edge. Along with my load, I felt a burst of my were-energy, the energy that enables us to change, surge out of me into her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That&#039;s what actually would turn her, not the exchange of bodily fluids from sex or a bite. It triggered another, stronger orgasm in her. She collapsed onto the bed, and I fell on top of her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a minute. I started the change back to human. She felt my body shifting against her, and rolled over. &amp;quot;Don&#039;t change,&amp;quot; She said. &amp;quot;I like you like this.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed. I was still furred and clawed and snouted, but I could speak and wrap my arms around her. &amp;quot;Will this do? This way we can talk and cuddle.&amp;quot; I pulled her close, nuzzled her ear and purred.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mmm. I&#039;m going to have ask you to stop that. Sometime around 3 in the afternoon, I think.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Our presentation is at 2,&amp;quot; I replied.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Fuck the presentation!&amp;quot; She said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I&#039;d rather fuck you again. Besides, how do you have sex with a Powerpoint file?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, there was a knock on the door. The bolt slid back, and Emily stuck her head in. I put an arm across Bran&#039;s breasts, and draped my tail over her privates. Emily chuckled. &amp;quot;You&#039;re such a gentleman. Anyway, now that that&#039;s done, you can come upstairs and sleep in the guest room if you want. It has a real bed, and windows, and all that.&amp;quot; She looked at me and said, &amp;quot;Could you stay like that, so the pack can see you and smell you and know you really are a cougar.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We gathered our things. Bran threw her dress over her head. I hooked a thumb claw into the hole in the end of the zipper pull, and pulled it up for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The stairs were steep enough that Emily&#039;s nude butt was even with my eyes. A trail of wolfy lust musk wafted behind her. I doubted Bran could smell it, but I&#039;d have to tell her about the different meaning of privacy among shapeshifters. With our better hearing and smell, everyone knows who&#039;s doing who. We really can&#039;t hide it. Emily must have heard everything we did, and maybe even smelled it. I wondered what Bran would say when she found out I would lighten her workload when she was PMSing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first floor was littered with puppy piles of wolves. Some were just cuddling. Others smelled of sex. Gold eyes followed us, well mostly me, to the front stairs. Emily lead us up the stairs to a back bedroom. Moonlight flooded through the lace curtains. Our bags were by the dresser.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;This story has the same lead character as [[Cougar Town]] but I think it will stand alone. It takes place about 15 years later. It has adult content, some of it nonconsentual&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I hope Vivian won&#039;t be there.&amp;quot; John said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You know she will,&amp;quot; replied Branwen. &amp;quot;The conference is in the same city as her office. You need to tell her to either stop flirting with you, or date you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I tried that. She just laughed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bran, John and I were in Bran&#039;s Buick, driving from Syracuse to Rochester for an engineering convention. John, a tall, dark haired fellow, was in the passenger seat. I was in the back, behind Bran.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We were going to represent our employer, Leightner and Moody Engineering, at the convention. Bran and I were going to give a presentation about the success of our village streetscape project. I was the design engineer and responsible for the overall project. Bran had designed the sidewalks, landscaping, and drainage. John headed another design team, and was going to talk to prospective clients.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian is our Leightner and Moody&#039;s lead real estate lawyer. John had to work with Vivian because extensive right-of-way purchases were needed for his project.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Vivian has a history of flirting with John to the very limits of professional office behavior, and sometimes beyond. As soon as he responds, though, she gets frigid. It doesn&#039;t help John that Vivian is a gorgeous redhead. Anyone could see why John hated it. Unlike most people, however, I can tell she has a serious case of the hots for him. I can tell by how her scent changes around him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also know why she can&#039;t act on it. You see, Vivian has a secret. She is a werewolf. I can smell that, too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How can I tell? I also have a secret. I&#039;m a were-cougar. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I can sympathize with Vivian to some extent. Bran used to flirt with me when she first joined the company. I didn&#039;t want to, but I finally had to tell her to stop. I&#039;m pretty sure she was still crushing on me a little, though.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well at least her hair makes her easy to spot,&amp;quot; Bran said. &amp;quot;Don&#039;t worry. Bran and I will run interference for you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, the car&#039;s GPS beeped. John, in the passenger seat, looked at it and said, &amp;quot;The Thruway is closed ahead for some reason. Take the next exit. It looks like we&#039;re taking the back roads.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh. crap&amp;quot; Bran said. &amp;quot;At least there will be a full moon tonight, so it&#039;ll be easier to see.&amp;quot; I was already feeling the tingle of energy from the moon. Felines like me aren&#039;t as strongly tied to the moon as werewolves, but we still hear her call.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As we drove west through the upstate New York countryside, we were treated to a gorgeous sunset in front of us, and a moonrise behind us. We crested a hill and were greeted by the sight of an old farmhouse and barn across the valley, glowing in the light of the setting sun. As we dropped down into the shadow of the hill, I caught a flicker of motion off to the right. &amp;quot;Look out!&amp;quot; I yelled, just as a doe lept over the road. It was followed by a grey blur that crashed into the front of the car, cracked the windshield, and went over the roof.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Branwen slammed on the brakes hard and the ABS clattered like mad as the car slewed to a stop. We all got out. John went to check the damage to the car, and Bran looked for whatever we hit. As I stepped out, the scent hit me. Werewolves! &amp;quot;Get back in the car, NOW!&amp;quot; I yelled. She looked at me, then behind me, and screamed. Something slammed into the back of the head, and the world went red and black.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I came to with the throbbing head and nausea of a concussion. I called on my cougar nature to accelerate the healing, and looked up to assess my surroundings. The first thing was the scent of Branwen&#039;s fear. She has a strong phobia about dogs. She was attached by one as a kid, and is on the edge of panic whenever one is near. Any human would be scared when confronted by were-folk. To a cynophobe like Branwen, they&#039;d be paralyzing. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The second thing was a basementy smell, and a cold, grimy stone floor below me. The light of a bare bulb showed that we were in a caged in a stone-walled basement. Bran was curled up in a ball in the corner, sobbing and rocking back and forth. Outside the bars were two male and two female werewolves. They were half-changed - still bipedal, but with fur and tails and fangs and thick blunt claws on their fingers and toes. A female with reddish fur had John pinned to the floor outside the cage. She seemed familiar somehow, but I couldn&#039;t quite place it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She dug her claws into the front of John&#039;s chinos and ripped them open along with his boxers. She lowered her head and applied her long supple tongue to his crotch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was too late for me to help John. I pulled Bran close and wrapped my arms around her. She buried her head into the crook of my neck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Having gotten the results she wanted, the red wolf straddled John&#039;s hips and lowered herself onto John as he watched in horror. She turned to the other female. &amp;quot;Emily, the other male is yours. The boss is going to want the woman, as usual.&amp;quot; Just then, the basement door opened, changing the airflow in the basement. I got a whiff of the female&#039;s scent. I should have known.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was too late for John. How could I best protect Bran?. There was no way I could take on a whole pack,  I can hold my own against any single werewolf, maybe even two or three of them. My feline agility and sharp claws give me an edge. Four of them, with the rest of the pack upstairs, was out of the question. Cats are ambush hunters, stalking, jumping and pouncing. Wolves will run down their prey for miles until it drops from exhaustion. I could never outrun them. Fighting wasn&#039;t an option. I had to outthink them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Emily came into the cage to get me. I gently let go of Bran, jumped into the air, and kicked her in the chest with both feet. She slammed back into the bars. Before she could recover, I spun her around to face away from me, got her right arm into a half-nelson and wrapped my other hand around her throat, claws extended. Her eyed bulged. I yelled, &amp;quot;Vivian!&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian&#039;s head swiveled to face me. She stood up off of John, and walked up to the cage. &amp;quot;How did you know?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You have a distinctive scent.&amp;quot; I half-changed, showing her my cougar eyes and snout Light brown for convert my skin. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Wha the ...??? Interesting... Well, you obviously won&#039;t be joining our pack, but I don&#039;t think we need to worry. Let Emily go and join us for dinner. We&#039;re having venison.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I shook my head. &amp;quot;Viv, about Branwen. She&#039;s no good to you. She&#039;s phobic. Can&#039;t you smell it? Do you really want a pack member that goes batshit crazy every full moon? Give her to me and I&#039;ll change her. She&#039;ll be better off as a cougar. Heck, she loves cats. She breeds Savannahs.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A male growled, &amp;quot;She knows. She must join...&amp;quot; He fell silent at Vivian&#039;s gesture.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sighed. &amp;quot;Well, the boss won&#039;t like it, but you&#039;re probably right. But if she&#039;s not changed by morning, neither of you are leaving this cage.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I let Emily go with an apology, and said to Vivian, &amp;quot;Do you have any place with bit more privacy, and less grime?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian nodded. &amp;quot;Put them in the safe room. Emily, for letting him get the drop on you, you&#039;ll guard the door instead of joining tonight&#039;s howl.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I picked up Bran and followed Emily to a door on the other side of the basement. &amp;quot;You can go in here. It&#039;s still a cell, but at least it has a real floor and a bed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She opened the door and motioned us in. The door was thick oak, riveted to iron bands. It closed behind us with a bang, and I heard heavy steel bolts slide home. The inside of the door was covered with gouges and claw marks. Some had bloodstains. The irony of the name safe room didn&#039;t escape me. This wasn&#039;t a refuge in a home invasion or tornado. They lock up deranged, out-of-control wolves to keep the rest of the pack safe. I shuddered at the thought. If she joined the pack, Bran would probably spend all her full moons in here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The bed was really just a mattress in the corner, but it was better than the dirt floor of the cell. I set Branwen down on it, and sat next to her and pulled her onto my lap. She was still shaking in the grips of he panic attack, muttering &amp;quot;Dogs will kill me!&amp;quot; over and over. I couldn&#039;t do anything with her like this. I&#039;d sworn an oath to myself to never so what had been done to me and change anyone without consent. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The moon was shining through the barred window high on the other wall when I realized what to do. I started purring softly. It seemed to help, so I increased the volume.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The moonlight moved from  the wall across from the window to the middle of the floor before Bran finally stirred. She sat up, looked around, and said in a panicky voice, &amp;quot;What happened? Where are we? Where&#039;s John? Are the dogs gone?&amp;quot; And then, &amp;quot;Did you hear a cat?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I sat up and wrapped my arms around her, and said, &amp;quot;It&#039;s okay. Well, it&#039;s not okay, but it&#039;s better than it could have been.&amp;quot; I took a breath. &amp;quot;Bran, we&#039;re being held prisoner by werewolves.&amp;quot; She made a skeptical grunt. &amp;quot;Yes, they are real. Very, very real. They have John. He&#039;s probably one of them by now.&amp;quot; I paused for a breath. &amp;quot;The bad news is, you&#039;re not walking out of this room as a human. The good news is I convinced them to give you a choice. You can either become one of them, or let me change you&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;And what are you?&amp;quot; She asked. She sounded skeptical.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Were-cougar, Or catamount or puma if you prefer.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You&#039;re telling me we&#039;re captives of mythical creatures, and you turn into a different mythical creature on the full moon.&amp;quot; Her tone was sarcastic and unbelieving.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yes. Well, not necessarily on the full moon. Whenever I want to, really.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;So, you expect me to believe that if I let you bite me, I&#039;ll magically turn into a cougar? You know what they say about extraordinary claims.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well, first off, I&#039;d rather not have to bite you. That&#039;s uncivilized. Sex works just as well, and it&#039;s more fun. And as for extraordinary proof...&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I took her hand and pulled it out into the pool of moonlight. I let go, and placed my hand in her palm. A moment&#039;s concentration, and my fingernails lengthened into sharp, hooked claws. Tough but supple pads formed under my knuckles and the middle joint of my fingers. Tawny fur covered the rest up past my wrist. With a quick indrawn breath, she caressed my fur, prodded my pads, and gently ran fingertips over the points of my class. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Is this real?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I kicked off my shoes, pulled off my socks and stood in the shaft of moonlight from the window. I faced her and unbuttoned my shirt, took it off and dropped it on the mattress. I could tell she liked what she saw. One perk of being a shape shifter is a heightened metabolism. I&#039;m not muscle-bound by any means, but I am slim and toned. After unbuckling my belt and opening my fly, I hooked my thumbs over both waistbands of my pants and briefs and pushed them down to my ankles, changing as I did. I pulled my hind paws out of my pants and padded over to where she was sitting. Her astonishment written on her face. I head-butted her a few times, then touched my muzzle to her nose.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She reached up and tentatively touched the fur on my cheek. &amp;quot;Oh. My. God,&amp;quot; she said. &amp;quot;You&#039;re real! You&#039;re effin&#039; real! She started scratching behind my ears. I couldn&#039;t help myself. I started purring. Purring is the best compensation of being one of the lesser cats. Lions, tigers, jaguars and leopards get most of the press, but they can&#039;t purr. We can&#039;t roar, but a snarl is almost as good, and purring is more fun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bran laughed out loud with delight. &amp;quot;That was you I heard,&amp;quot; she exclaimed. I had the wrong mouth shape to talk now, so I nodded yes. &amp;quot;So, if I fuck you, So. I&#039;ll be able to change and purr and all this, too?&amp;quot; I nodded yes again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I don&#039;t know which part is better! Becoming a cat or finally getting you between my legs!&amp;quot; I gave her another head-butt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She stood up, said &amp;quot;It&#039;s my turn.&amp;quot; She pulled the barrettes from her hair, letting it spill down her back. She unzipped the back of her dress and slowly let it drop to the ground. Her bra soon followed, and she stood in front of me wearing just panties, thigh-highs, and kitten heeled boots.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Intellectually, I could see she was really quite attractive, if a little on the round side. Physically, though, the sight of a naked human just didn&#039;t do it for my cat brain. She reached around my rump and caressed my sheath. &amp;quot;No? Huh. Oh, I think I know how to get him to come out and play.&amp;quot; She pulled her panties down and kicked them off. The scent of her nethers tickled my nose. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I dropped my jaw a little and pulled up my upper lip, so her scent could reach the special scent receptors in the roof of my mouth. Yes, she was damp. Doing it with a cougar was a turn on for her? If that was her kink, I was the luckiest guy in the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She cupped her pussy with one hand, then pushed two fingers inside herself. Then she reached out and rubbed her wetness on my muzzle. The smell was intoxicating. I was almost instantly fully engorged. I kept my cock mostly human, for two reasons. To be honest, we felines just aren&#039;t well hung. Even lions are lacking in the package. Second, I really liked her and didn&#039;t want to hurt her. We have barbed, spiky penises that would probably leave her a bloody mess down there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I pushed my snout between her legs and licked her folds gently, since my rough tongue might be too abrasive. Instead, I purred. Yeah that worked. Her dampness soon became wetness. It wasn&#039;t long before she was moaning softly. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She moved away from me and stepped over to the mattress. She knelt with her back to me, then dropped to all fours. With a come-hither look over her shoulder, she spread her knees apart, fully exposing that wet, wonderfully-scented pussy. With a pounce I covered her. I gently nipped her neck between my fangs, and dropped my hips to take her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Aaaand,&#039;&#039; I missed. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pussy pussies are farther back than a woman&#039;s, just below the bung. It was kind of embarrassing. I was glad my face was covered in fur so she couldn&#039;t see me blush. Before I could try again, she reached back and grasped me. After a few strokes with her hand, she pulled me down and forward and guided me inside her. Fuck! I thought. She actually &#039;&#039;wants&#039;&#039; this?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I started pumping into her. I had actually never had sex with a human woman since I was changed, so I was a bit worried that I&#039;d do it wrong. I wanted it to feel good for her. I must have been doing something right, she was soon moaning again. Or maybe it was her hypothetical cat fetish. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She moved with me, pushing back into my thrusts to take me fully inside herself, moaning with each one. The loudness and pitch increased until she yelped and I felt her contracting around me. That took me over the edge. Along with my load, I felt a burst of my were-energy, the energy that enables us to change, surge out of me into her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That&#039;s what actually would turn her, not the exchange of bodily fluids from sex or a bite. It triggered another, stronger orgasm in her. She collapsed onto the bed, and I fell on top of her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a minute. I started the change back to human. She felt my body shifting against her, and rolled over. &amp;quot;Don&#039;t change,&amp;quot; She said. &amp;quot;I like you like this.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed. I was still furred and clawed and snouted, but I could speak and wrap my arms around her. &amp;quot;Will this do? This way we can talk and cuddle.&amp;quot; I pulled her close, nuzzled her ear and purred.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mmm. I&#039;m going to have ask you to stop that. Sometime around 3 in the afternoon, I think.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Our presentation is at 2,&amp;quot; I replied.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Fuck the presentation!&amp;quot; She said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I&#039;d rather fuck you again. Besides, how do you have sex with a Powerpoint file?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, there was a knock on the door. The bolt slid back, and Emily stuck her head in. I put an arm across Bran&#039;s breasts, and draped my tail over her privates. Emily chuckled. &amp;quot;You&#039;re such a gentleman. Anyway, now that that&#039;s done, you can come upstairs and sleep in the guest room if you want. It has a real bed, and windows, and all that.&amp;quot; She looked at me and said, &amp;quot;Could you stay like that, so the pack can see you and smell you and know you really are a cougar.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We gathered our things. Bran threw her dress over her head. I hooked a thumb claw into the hole in the end of the zipper pull, and pulled it up for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The stairs were steep enough that Emily&#039;s nude butt was even with my eyes. A trail of wolfy lust musk wafted behind her. I doubted Bran could smell it, but I&#039;d have to tell her about the different meaning of privacy among shapeshifters. With our better hearing and smell, everyone knows who&#039;s doing who. We really can&#039;t hide it. Emily must have heard everything we did, and maybe even smelled it. I wondered what Bran would say when she found out I would lighten her workload when she was PMSing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first floor was littered with puppy piles of wolves. Some were just cuddling. Others smelled of sex. Gold eyes followed us, well mostly me, to the front stairs. Emily lead us up the stairs to a back bedroom. Moonlight flooded through the lace curtains. Our bags were by the dresser.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;This story has the same lead character as [[Cougar Town]] but I think it will stand alone. It takes place about 15 years later. It has adult content.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I hope Vivian won&#039;t be there.&amp;quot; John said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You know she will,&amp;quot; replied Branwen. &amp;quot;The conference is in the same city as her office. You need to tell her to either stop flirting with you, or date you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I tried that. She just laughed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bran, John and I were in Bran&#039;s Buick, driving from Syracuse to Rochester for an engineering convention. John, a tall, dark haired fellow, was in the passenger seat. I was in the back, behind Bran.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We were going to represent our employer, Leightner and Moody Engineering, at the convention. Bran and I were going to give a presentation about the success of our village streetscape project. I was the design engineer and responsible for the overall project. Bran had designed the sidewalks, landscaping, and drainage. John headed another design team, and was going to talk to prospective clients.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian is our Leightner and Moody&#039;s lead real estate lawyer. John had to work with Vivian because extensive right-of-way purchases were needed for his project.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Vivian has a history of flirting with John to the very limits of professional office behavior, and sometimes beyond. As soon as he responds, though, she gets frigid. It doesn&#039;t help John that Vivian is a gorgeous redhead. Anyone could see why John hated it. Unlike most people, however, I can tell she has a serious case of the hots for him. I can tell by how her scent changes around him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also know why she can&#039;t act on it. You see, Vivian has a secret. She is a werewolf. I can smell that, too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How can I tell? I also have a secret. I&#039;m a were-cougar. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I can sympathize with Vivian to some extent. Bran used to flirt with me when she first joined the company. I didn&#039;t want to, but I finally had to tell her to stop. I&#039;m pretty sure she was still crushing on me a little, though.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well at least her hair makes her easy to spot,&amp;quot; Bran said. &amp;quot;Don&#039;t worry. Bran and I will run interference for you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, the car&#039;s GPS beeped. John, in the passenger seat, looked at it and said, &amp;quot;The Thruway is closed ahead for some reason. Take the next exit. It looks like we&#039;re taking the back roads.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh. crap&amp;quot; Bran said. &amp;quot;At least there will be a full moon tonight, so it&#039;ll be easier to see.&amp;quot; I was already feeling the tingle of energy from the moon. Felines like me aren&#039;t as strongly tied to the moon as werewolves, but we still hear her call.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As we drove west through the upstate New York countryside, we were treated to a gorgeous sunset in front of us, and a moonrise behind us. We crested a hill and were greeted by the sight of an old farmhouse and barn across the valley, glowing in the light of the setting sun. As we dropped down into the shadow of the hill, I caught a flicker of motion off to the right. &amp;quot;Look out!&amp;quot; I yelled, just as a doe lept over the road. It was followed by a grey blur that crashed into the front of the car, cracked the windshield, and went over the roof.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Branwen slammed on the brakes hard and the ABS clattered like mad as the car slewed to a stop. We all got out. John went to check the damage to the car, and Bran looked for whatever we hit. As I stepped out, the scent hit me. Werewolves! &amp;quot;Get back in the car, NOW!&amp;quot; I yelled. She looked at me, then behind me, and screamed. Something slammed into the back of the head, and the world went red and black.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I came to with the throbbing head and nausea of a concussion. I called on my cougar nature to accelerate the healing, and looked up to assess my surroundings. The first thing was the scent of Branwen&#039;s fear. She has a strong phobia about dogs. She was attached by one as a kid, and is on the edge of panic whenever one is near. Any human would be scared when confronted by were-folk. To a cynophobe like Branwen, they&#039;d be paralyzing. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The second thing was a basementy smell, and a cold, grimy stone floor below me. The light of a bare bulb showed that we were in a caged in a stone-walled basement. Bran was curled up in a ball in the corner, sobbing and rocking back and forth. Outside the bars were two male and two female werewolves. They were half-changed - still bipedal, but with fur and tails and fangs and thick blunt claws on their fingers and toes. A female with reddish fur had John pinned to the floor outside the cage. She seemed familiar somehow, but I couldn&#039;t quite place it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She dug her claws into the front of John&#039;s chinos and ripped them open along with his boxers. She lowered her head and applied her long supple tongue to his crotch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was too late for me to help John. I pulled Bran close and wrapped my arms around her. She buried her head into the crook of my neck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Having gotten the results she wanted, the red wolf straddled John&#039;s hips and lowered herself onto John as he watched in horror. She turned to the other female. &amp;quot;Emily, the other male is yours. The boss is going to want the woman, as usual.&amp;quot; Just then, the basement door opened, changing the airflow in the basement. I got a whiff of the female&#039;s scent. I should have known.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was too late for John. How could I best protect Bran?. There was no way I could take on a whole pack,  I can hold my own against any single werewolf, maybe even two or three of them. My feline agility and sharp claws give me an edge. Four of them, with the rest of the pack upstairs, was out of the question. Cats are ambush hunters, stalking, jumping and pouncing. Wolves will run down their prey for miles until it drops from exhaustion. I could never outrun them. Fighting wasn&#039;t an option. I had to outthink them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Emily came into the cage to get me. I gently let go of Bran, jumped into the air, and kicked her in the chest with both feet. She slammed back into the bars. Before she could recover, I spun her around to face away from me, got her right arm into a half-nelson and wrapped my other hand around her throat, claws extended. Her eyed bulged. I yelled, &amp;quot;Vivian!&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian&#039;s head swiveled to face me. She stood up off of John, and walked up to the cage. &amp;quot;How did you know?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You have a distinctive scent.&amp;quot; I half-changed, showing her my cougar eyes and snout Light brown for convert my skin. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Wha the ...??? Interesting... Well, you obviously won&#039;t be joining our pack, but I don&#039;t think we need to worry. Let Emily go and join us for dinner. We&#039;re having venison.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I shook my head. &amp;quot;Viv, about Branwen. She&#039;s no good to you. She&#039;s phobic. Can&#039;t you smell it? Do you really want a pack member that goes batshit crazy every full moon? Give her to me and I&#039;ll change her. She&#039;ll be better off as a cougar. Heck, she loves cats. She breeds Savannahs.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A male growled, &amp;quot;She knows. She must join...&amp;quot; He fell silent at Vivian&#039;s gesture.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sighed. &amp;quot;Well, the boss won&#039;t like it, but you&#039;re probably right. But if she&#039;s not changed by morning, neither of you are leaving this cage.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I let Emily go with an apology, and said to Vivian, &amp;quot;Do you have any place with bit more privacy, and less grime?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian nodded. &amp;quot;Put them in the safe room. Emily, for letting him get the drop on you, you&#039;ll guard the door instead of joining tonight&#039;s howl.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I picked up Bran and followed Emily to a door on the other side of the basement. &amp;quot;You can go in here. It&#039;s still a cell, but at least it has a real floor and a bed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She opened the door and motioned us in. The door was thick oak, riveted to iron bands. It closed behind us with a bang, and I heard heavy steel bolts slide home. The inside of the door was covered with gouges and claw marks. Some had bloodstains. The irony of the name safe room didn&#039;t escape me. This wasn&#039;t a refuge in a home invasion or tornado. They lock up deranged, out-of-control wolves to keep the rest of the pack safe. I shuddered at the thought. If she joined the pack, Bran would probably spend all her full moons in here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The bed was really just a mattress in the corner, but it was better than the dirt floor of the cell. I set Branwen down on it, and sat next to her and pulled her onto my lap. She was still shaking in the grips of he panic attack, muttering &amp;quot;Dogs will kill me!&amp;quot; over and over. I couldn&#039;t do anything with her like this. I&#039;d sworn an oath to myself to never so what had been done to me and change anyone without consent. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The moon was shining through the barred window high on the other wall when I realized what to do. I started purring softly. It seemed to help, so I increased the volume.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The moonlight moved from  the wall across from the window to the middle of the floor before Bran finally stirred. She sat up, looked around, and said in a panicky voice, &amp;quot;What happened? Where are we? Where&#039;s John? Are the dogs gone?&amp;quot; And then, &amp;quot;Did you hear a cat?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I sat up and wrapped my arms around her, and said, &amp;quot;It&#039;s okay. Well, it&#039;s not okay, but it&#039;s better than it could have been.&amp;quot; I took a breath. &amp;quot;Bran, we&#039;re being held prisoner by werewolves.&amp;quot; She made a skeptical grunt. &amp;quot;Yes, they are real. Very, very real. They have John. He&#039;s probably one of them by now.&amp;quot; I paused for a breath. &amp;quot;The bad news is, you&#039;re not walking out of this room as a human. The good news is I convinced them to give you a choice. You can either become one of them, or let me change you&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;And what are you?&amp;quot; She asked. She sounded skeptical.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Were-cougar, Or catamount or puma if you prefer.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You&#039;re telling me we&#039;re captives of mythical creatures, and you turn into a different mythical creature on the full moon.&amp;quot; Her tone was sarcastic and unbelieving.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yes. Well, not necessarily on the full moon. Whenever I want to, really.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;So, you expect me to believe that if I let you bite me, I&#039;ll magically turn into a cougar? You know what they say about extraordinary claims.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well, first off, I&#039;d rather not have to bite you. That&#039;s uncivilized. Sex works just as well, and it&#039;s more fun. And as for extraordinary proof...&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I took her hand and pulled it out into the pool of moonlight. I let go, and placed my hand in her palm. A moment&#039;s concentration, and my fingernails lengthened into sharp, hooked claws. Tough but supple pads formed under my knuckles and the middle joint of my fingers. Tawny fur covered the rest up past my wrist. With a quick indrawn breath, she caressed my fur, prodded my pads, and gently ran fingertips over the points of my class. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Is this real?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I kicked off my shoes, pulled off my socks and stood in the shaft of moonlight from the window. I faced her and unbuttoned my shirt, took it off and dropped it on the mattress. I could tell she liked what she saw. One perk of being a shape shifter is a heightened metabolism. I&#039;m not muscle-bound by any means, but I am slim and toned. After unbuckling my belt and opening my fly, I hooked my thumbs over both waistbands of my pants and briefs and pushed them down to my ankles, changing as I did. I pulled my hind paws out of my pants and padded over to where she was sitting. Her astonishment written on her face. I head-butted her a few times, then touched my muzzle to her nose.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She reached up and tentatively touched the fur on my cheek. &amp;quot;Oh. My. God,&amp;quot; she said. &amp;quot;You&#039;re real! You&#039;re effin&#039; real! She started scratching behind my ears. I couldn&#039;t help myself. I started purring. Purring is the best compensation of being one of the lesser cats. Lions, tigers, jaguars and leopards get most of the press, but they can&#039;t purr. We can&#039;t roar, but a snarl is almost as good, and purring is more fun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bran laughed out loud with delight. &amp;quot;That was you I heard,&amp;quot; she exclaimed. I had the wrong mouth shape to talk now, so I nodded yes. &amp;quot;So, if I fuck you, So. I&#039;ll be able to change and purr and all this, too?&amp;quot; I nodded yes again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I don&#039;t know which part is better! Becoming a cat or finally getting you between my legs!&amp;quot; I gave her another head-butt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She stood up, said &amp;quot;It&#039;s my turn.&amp;quot; She pulled the barrettes from her hair, letting it spill down her back. She unzipped the back of her dress and slowly let it drop to the ground. Her bra soon followed, and she stood in front of me wearing just panties, thigh-highs, and kitten heeled boots.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Intellectually, I could see she was really quite attractive, if a little on the round side. Physically, though, the sight of a naked human just didn&#039;t do it for my cat brain. She reached around my rump and caressed my sheath. &amp;quot;No? Huh. Oh, I think I know how to get him to come out and play.&amp;quot; She pulled her panties down and kicked them off. The scent of her nethers tickled my nose. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I dropped my jaw a little and pulled up my upper lip, so her scent could reach the special scent receptors in the roof of my mouth. Yes, she was damp. Doing it with a cougar was a turn on for her? If that was her kink, I was the luckiest guy in the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She cupped her pussy with one hand, then pushed two fingers inside herself. Then she reached out and rubbed her wetness on my muzzle. The smell was intoxicating. I was almost instantly fully engorged. I kept my cock mostly human, for two reasons. To be honest, we felines just aren&#039;t well hung. Even lions are lacking in the package. Second, I really liked her and didn&#039;t want to hurt her. We have barbed, spiky penises that would probably leave her a bloody mess down there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I pushed my snout between her legs and licked her folds gently, since my rough tongue might be too abrasive. Instead, I purred. Yeah that worked. Her dampness soon became wetness. It wasn&#039;t long before she was moaning softly. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She moved away from me and stepped over to the mattress. She knelt with her back to me, then dropped to all fours. With a come-hither look over her shoulder, she spread her knees apart, fully exposing that wet, wonderfully-scented pussy. With a pounce I covered her. I gently nipped her neck between my fangs, and dropped my hips to take her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Aaaand,&#039;&#039; I missed. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pussy pussies are farther back than a woman&#039;s, just below the bung. It was kind of embarrassing. I was glad my face was covered in fur so she couldn&#039;t see me blush. Before I could try again, she reached back and grasped me. After a few strokes with her hand, she pulled me down and forward and guided me inside her. Fuck! I thought. She actually &#039;&#039;wants&#039;&#039; this?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I started pumping into her. I had actually never had sex with a human woman since I was changed, so I was a bit worried that I&#039;d do it wrong. I wanted it to feel good for her. I must have been doing something right, she was soon moaning again. Or maybe it was her hypothetical cat fetish. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She moved with me, pushing back into my thrusts to take me fully inside herself, moaning with each one. The loudness and pitch increased until she yelped and I felt her contracting around me. That took me over the edge. Along with my load, I felt a burst of my were-energy, the energy that enables us to change, surge out of me into her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That&#039;s what actually would turn her, not the exchange of bodily fluids from sex or a bite. It triggered another, stronger orgasm in her. She collapsed onto the bed, and I fell on top of her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a minute. I started the change back to human. She felt my body shifting against her, and rolled over. &amp;quot;Don&#039;t change,&amp;quot; She said. &amp;quot;I like you like this.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed. I was still furred and clawed and snouted, but I could speak and wrap my arms around her. &amp;quot;Will this do? This way we can talk and cuddle.&amp;quot; I pulled her close, nuzzled her ear and purred.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mmm. I&#039;m going to have ask you to stop that. Sometime around 3 in the afternoon, I think.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Our presentation is at 2,&amp;quot; I replied.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Fuck the presentation!&amp;quot; She said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I&#039;d rather fuck you again. Besides, how do you have sex with a Powerpoint file?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, there was a knock on the door. The bolt slid back, and Emily stuck her head in. I put an arm across Bran&#039;s breasts, and draped my tail over her privates. Emily chuckled. &amp;quot;You&#039;re such a gentleman. Anyway, now that that&#039;s done, you can come upstairs and sleep in the guest room if you want. It has a real bed, and windows, and all that.&amp;quot; She looked at me and said, &amp;quot;Could you stay like that, so the pack can see you and smell you and know you really are a cougar.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We gathered our things. Bran threw her dress over her head. I hooked a thumb claw into the hole in the end of the zipper pull, and pulled it up for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The stairs were steep enough that Emily&#039;s nude butt was even with my eyes. A trail of wolfy lust musk wafted behind her. I doubted Bran could smell it, but I&#039;d have to tell her about the different meaning of privacy among shapeshifters. With our better hearing and smell, everyone knows who&#039;s doing who. We really can&#039;t hide it. Emily must have heard everything we did, and maybe even smelled it. I wondered what Bran would say when she found out I would lighten her workload when she was PMSing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first floor was littered with puppy piles of wolves. Some were just cuddling. Others smelled of sex. Gold eyes followed us, well mostly me, to the front stairs. Emily lead us up the stairs to a back bedroom. Moonlight flooded through the lace curtains. Our bags were by the dresser.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;This story has the same lead character as [[Cougar Town]] but I think it will stand alone. It takes place about 15 years later. It has adult content.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I hope Vivian won&#039;t be there.&amp;quot; John said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You know she will,&amp;quot; replied Branwen. &amp;quot;The conference is in the same city as her office. You need to tell her to either stop flirting with you, or date you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I tried that. She just laughed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bran, John and I were in Bran&#039;s Buick, driving from Syracuse to Rochester for an engineering convention. John, a tall, dark haired fellow, was in the passenger seat. I was in the back, behind Bran.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We were going to represent our employer, Leightner and Moody Engineering, at the convention. Bran and I were going to give a presentation about the success of our village streetscape project. I was the design engineer and responsible for the overall project. Bran had designed the sidewalks, landscaping, and drainage. John headed another design team, and was going to talk to prospective clients.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian is our Leightner and Moody&#039;s lead real estate lawyer. John had to work with Vivian because extensive right-of-way purchases were needed for his project.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Vivian has a history of flirting with John to the very limits of professional office behavior, and sometimes beyond. As soon as he responds, though, she gets frigid. It doesn&#039;t help John that Vivian is a gorgeous redhead. Anyone could see why John hated it. Unlike most people, however, I can tell she has a serious case of the hots for him. I can tell by how her scent changes around him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also know why she can&#039;t act on it. You see, Vivian has a secret. She is a werewolf. I can smell that, too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How can I tell? I also have a secret. I&#039;m a were-cougar. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I can sympathize with Vivian to some extent. Bran used to flirt with me when she first joined the company. I didn&#039;t want to, but I finally had to tell her to stop.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well at least her hair makes her easy to spot,&amp;quot; Bran said. &amp;quot;Don&#039;t worry. Bran and I will run interference for you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, the car&#039;s GPS beeped. John, in the passenger seat, looked at it and said, &amp;quot;The Thruway is closed ahead for some reason. Take the next exit. It looks like we&#039;re taking the back roads.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh. crap&amp;quot; Bran said. &amp;quot;At least there will be a full moon tonight, so it&#039;ll be easier to see.&amp;quot; I was already feeling the tingle of energy from the moon. Felines like me aren&#039;t as strongly tied to the moon as werewolves, but we still hear her call.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As we drove west through the upstate New York countryside, we were treated to a gorgeous sunset in front of us, and a moonrise behind us. We crested a hill and were greeted by the sight of an old farmhouse and barn across the valley, glowing in the light of the setting sun. As we dropped down into the shadow of the hill, I caught a flicker of motion off to the right. &amp;quot;Look out!&amp;quot; I yelled, just as a doe lept over the road. It was followed by a grey blur that crashed into the front of the car, cracked the windshield, and went over the roof.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Branwen slammed on the brakes hard and the ABS clattered like mad as the car slewed to a stop. We all got out. John went to check the damage to the car, and Bran looked for whatever we hit. As I stepped out, the scent hit me. Werewolves! &amp;quot;Get back in the car, NOW!&amp;quot; I yelled. She looked at me, then behind me, and screamed. Something slammed into the back of the head, and the world went red and black.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I came to with the throbbing head and nausea of a concussion. I called on my cougar nature to accelerate the healing, and looked up to assess my surroundings. The first thing was the scent of Branwen&#039;s fear. She has a strong phobia about dogs. She was attached by one as a kid, and is on the edge of panic whenever one is near. Any human would be scared when confronted by were-folk. To a cynophobe like Branwen, they&#039;d be paralyzing. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The second thing was a basementy smell, and a cold, grimy stone floor below me. The light of a bare bulb showed that we were in a caged in a stone-walled basement. Bran was curled up in a ball in the corner, sobbing and rocking back and forth. Outside the bars were two male and two female werewolves. They were half-changed - still bipedal, but with fur and tails and fangs and thick blunt claws on their fingers and toes. A female with reddish fur had John pinned to the floor outside the cage. She seemed familiar somehow, but I couldn&#039;t quite place it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She dug her claws into the front of John&#039;s chinos and ripped them open along with his boxers. She lowered her head and applied her long supple tongue to his crotch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was too late for me to help John. I pulled Bran close and wrapped my arms around her. She buried her head into the crook of my neck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Having gotten the results she wanted, the red wolf straddled John&#039;s hips and lowered herself onto John as he watched in horror. She turned to the other female. &amp;quot;Emily, the other male is yours. The boss is going to want the woman, as usual.&amp;quot; Just then, the basement door opened, changing the airflow in the basement. I got a whiff of the female&#039;s scent. I should have known.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was too late for John. How could I best protect Bran?. There was no way I could take on a whole pack,  I can hold my own against any single werewolf, maybe even two or three of them. My feline agility and sharp claws give me an edge. Four of them, with the rest of the pack upstairs, was out of the question. Cats are ambush hunters, stalking, jumping and pouncing. Wolves will run down their prey for miles until it drops from exhaustion. I could never outrun them. Fighting wasn&#039;t an option. I had to outthink them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Emily came into the cage to get me. I gently let go of Bran, jumped into the air, and kicked her in the chest with both feet. She slammed back into the bars. Before she could recover, I spun her around to face away from me, got her right arm into a half-nelson and wrapped my other hand around her throat, claws extended. Her eyed bulged. I yelled, &amp;quot;Vivian!&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian&#039;s head smaller around. She stops up off of John, and walked up to the cage. &amp;quot;How did you know?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You have a distinctive scent.&amp;quot; I half-changed, showing her my cougar eyes and snout Light brown for convert my skin. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Wha the ...??? Interesting... Well, you obviously won&#039;t be joining our pack, but I don&#039;t think we need to worry. Let Emily go and join us for dinner. We&#039;re having venison.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I shook my head. &amp;quot;Viv, about Branwen. She&#039;s no good to you. She&#039;s phobic. Can&#039;t you smell it? Do you really want a pack member that goes batshit crazy every full moon? Give her to me and I&#039;ll change her. She&#039;ll be better off as a cougar. Heck, she loves cats. She breeds Savannahs.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A male growled, &amp;quot;She knows. She must join...&amp;quot; He fell silent at Vivian&#039;s gesture.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sighed. &amp;quot;Well, the boss won&#039;t like it, but you&#039;re probably right. But if she&#039;s not changed by morning, neither of you are leaving this cage.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I let Emily go with an apology, and said to Vivian, &amp;quot;Do you have any place with bit more privacy, and less grime?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian nodded. &amp;quot;Put them in the safe room. Emily, for letting him get the drop on you, you&#039;ll guard the door instead of joining us for dinner.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I picked up Bran and followed Emily to a door on the other side of the basement. &amp;quot;You can go in here. It&#039;s still a cell, but at least it has a real floor and a bed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She opened the door and motioned us in. The door was thick oak, riveted to iron bands. It closed behind us with a bang, and I heard heavy steel bolts slide home. The inside of the door was covered with gouges and claw marks. Some had bloodstains. The irony of the name safe room didn&#039;t escape me. This wasn&#039;t a refuge in a home invasion or tornado. They lock up deranged, out of control wolves to keep the rest of the pack safe. I shuddered at the thought. If she joined the pack, Bran would probably spend all her full moons in here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The bed was really just a mattress in the corner, but it was better than the dirt floor of the cell. I laid Branwen down on it, and curled up against her back.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The moon was shining through the barred window high on the other wall when Bran finally stirred. She sat up, looked around, and said in a panicky voice, &amp;quot;What happened? Where are we? Where&#039;s John? Are the dogs gone?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I sat up and wrapped my arms around her, and said, &amp;quot;It&#039;s okay. Well, it&#039;s not okay, but it&#039;s better than it could have been.&amp;quot; I took a breath. &amp;quot;Bran, we&#039;re being held prisoner by werewolves.&amp;quot; She made a skeptical grunt. &amp;quot;Yes, they are real. Very, very real. They have John. He&#039;s probably one of them by now.&amp;quot; I paused for a breath. &amp;quot;The bad news is, you&#039;re not walking out of this room as a human. The good news is I convinced them to give you a choice. You can either become one of them, or let me change you&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;And what are you?&amp;quot; She asked. She sounded skeptical.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Were-cougar, Or catamount or puma if you prefer.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You&#039;re telling me we&#039;re captives of mythical creatures, and you turn into a cougar on the full moon.&amp;quot; Her voice sounded sarcastically unbelieving.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yes. Well, not necessarily on the full moon. Whenever I want to, really.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;So, you expect me to believe that if I let you bite me, I&#039;ll magically turn into a cougar? You know what they say about extraordinary claims.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well, first off, I&#039;d rather not have to bite you. That&#039;s uncivilized. Sex works just as well, and it&#039;s more fun. And as for extraordinary proof...&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I kicked off my shoes, pulled off my socks and stood in the shaft of moonlight from the window. I faced her and unbuttoned my shirt, took it off and dropped it on the mattress. I could tell she liked what she saw. One perk of being a shape shifter is a heightened metabolism. I&#039;m not muscle-bound by any means, but I am slim and toned. After unbuckling my belt and opening my fly, I hooked my thumbs over both waistbands of my pants and briefs and pushed them down to my ankles. I changed as I did. I pulled my hind paws out of my pants and padded over to where she was sitting. Her astonishment was plain. I head-butted her a few times, then touched my muzzle to her nose.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She reached up and tentatively touched the fur on my cheek. &amp;quot;Oh. My. God,&amp;quot; she said. &amp;quot;You&#039;re real! You&#039;re effin&#039; real! She started scratching behind my ears. I couldn&#039;t help myself. I started purring. Purring is the best compensations of being one of the lesser cats. Lions, tigers, jaguars and leopards can&#039;t purr.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bran laughed out loud with delight. &amp;quot;So. I&#039;ll be able to change and purr and all this, too?&amp;quot; She asked. I had the wrong mouth shape to talk now, so I nodded yes. &amp;quot;And I&#039;ll finally get you between my legs!&amp;quot; When Branwen first started working with us, she used to flirt with me. I managed to ignore it, although it was hard at times. I nodded again. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She stood up, said &amp;quot;It&#039;s my turn.&amp;quot; She pulled the barrettes from her hair so it spilled down her back. She unzipped the back of her dress and slowly let it drop to the ground. Her bra soon followed, and she stood in front of me wearing just panties, thigh-highs, and kitten heeled boots.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Intellectually, I could see she was really quite attractive, if a little on the round side. Physically, though, the sight of a naked human just didn&#039;t do it for my cat brain. She reached around my rump and caressed my sheath. &amp;quot;No? Huh. Oh, I think I know how to get him to come out and play.&amp;quot; She pulled her panties down and kicked them off. The scent of her nethers tickled my nose. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I dropped my jaw a little and pulled up my upper lip, so her scent could reach the special scent receptors in the roof of my mouth. Yes, she was damp. Doing it with a cougar was a turn on for her? If that was her kink, I was the luckiest guy in the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She cupped her pussy with one hand, then pushed two fingers inside herself. Then she reached out and rubbed her wetness on my muzzle. The smell was intoxicating. I was almost instantly fully engorged. I kept my cock mostly human, for two reasons. To be honest, we felines just aren&#039;t well hung. Even lions are lacking in the package. Second, I really liked her and didn&#039;t want to hurt her. We have barbed, spiky penises that would probably leave her a bloody mess down there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I pushed my snout between her legs and licked her folds gently, since my rough tongue might be too abrasive. Instead, I purred. Yeah that worked. Her dampness soon became wetness. It wasn&#039;t long before she was moaning softly. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She moved away from me and stepped over to the mattress. She knelt with her back to me, then dropped to all fours. With a come-hither look over her shoulder, she spread her knees apart, fully exposing that wet, wonderfully-scented pussy. With a pounce I covered her. I gently nipped her neck between my fangs, and dropped my hips to take her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Aaaand,&#039;&#039; I missed. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pussy pussies are farther back than a woman&#039;s, just below the bung. It was kind of embarrassing. I was glad my face was covered in fur. Before I could try again, she reached back and grasped me. After a few strokes with her hand, she pulled me down and forward and guided me inside her. Fuck! I thought. She actually &#039;&#039;wants&#039;&#039; this?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I started pumping into her. I had actually never had sex with a human woman since I was changed, so I was a bit worried that I&#039;d do it wrong. I wanted it to feel good for her. I must have been doing something right, she was soon moaning again. Or maybe it was her hypothetical cat fetish. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She moved with me, pushing back into my thrusts to take me fully inside herself, moaning with each one. The loudness and pitch increased until she yelped and I felt her contracting around me. That took me over the edge. Along with my load, I felt a burst of my were-energy, the energy that enables us to change, surge out of me into her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That&#039;s what actually would turn her, not the exchange of bodily fluids from sex or a bite. It triggered another, stronger orgasm in her. She collapsed onto the bed, and I fell on top of her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a minute. I started the change back to human. She felt my body shifting against her, and rolled over. &amp;quot;Don&#039;t change,&amp;quot; She said. &amp;quot;I like you like this.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed. I was still furred and clawed and snouted, but I could speak and wrap my arms around her. &amp;quot;Will this do? This way we can talk and cuddle.&amp;quot; I pulled her close, nuzzled her ear and purred.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mmm. I&#039;m going to have ask you to stop that. Sometime around 3 in the afternoon, I think.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Our presentation is at 2,&amp;quot; I replied.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Fuck the presentation!&amp;quot; She said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I&#039;d rather fuck you again. Besides, how do you have sex with a Powerpoint file?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, there was a knock on the door. The bolt slid back, and Emily stuck her head in. I put an arm across Bran&#039;s breasts, and draped my tail over her privates. Emily chuckled. &amp;quot;You&#039;re such a gentleman. Anyway, now that that&#039;s done, you can come upstairs and sleep in the guest room if you want. It has a real bed, and windows, and all that.&amp;quot; She looked at me and said, &amp;quot;Could you stay like that, so the pack can see you and smell you and know you really are a cougar.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We gathered our things. Bran threw her dress over her head. I hooked a thumb claw into the hole in the end of the zipper pull, and pulled it up for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The stairs were steep enough that Emily&#039;s butt was even with my eyes. A trail of wolfy lust musk wafted behind her. I doubted Bran could smell it, but I&#039;d have to tell her about the different meaning of privacy among shapeshifters. With our better hearing and smell, everyone knows who&#039;s doing who.

The first thing that I noticed after my throbbing head when I came to was the scent of Branwen&#039;s fear. She has a strong phobia about dogs. She was attached by one as a kid, and is on the edge of panic whenever one is near. Any human would be scared when confronted by were-folk. To a cynophobe like Branwen, they must be terrifying. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The second thing was a basementy smell, and a cold, grimy stone floor below me. I opened my eyes and by the light of a bare bulb, I saw that we were in a caged in a stone-walled basement. Bran was curled up in a ball in the corner, sobbing and rocking back and forth. Outside the bars were two male and two female werewolves. They were half-changed - still bipedal, but with fur and tails and fangs and thick blunt claws on their fingers and toes. A female with reddish fur pointed at John, and growled, &amp;quot;Bring out the tall one. He&#039;s mine.&amp;quot; She seemed familiar somehow, but I couldn&#039;t quite place it. They came into the cell, grabbed John, and dragged him out. As they did, I got a whiff of the female&#039;s scent. It was Vivian.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I pulled Bran close and wrapped my arms around her. She buried her head into the crook of my neck. She jumped as the cage door slammed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
John struggled in the grip of the two big males, nut soon gave up as futile. Vivian walked over to him, stopping only inches away from his body. He said, &amp;quot;My brother is a detective. An FBI agent. If you kill me, he&#039;ll find you!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian said, &amp;quot;Oh, I have no intention of killing you, but I can&#039;t let you go, either. If our secret gets out, we&#039;ll be persecuted and hunted. We can&#039;t let the Burning Times happen again. If you ever want to leave this basement, you have to become one of us. It&#039;s pack law.&amp;quot; During the so-called Renaissance, any of our kind that got caught were convicted of being witches and burned at the stake.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What are you going to do, bite me?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She put a hand-paw on his cheek. &amp;quot;I could. I&#039;d rather not.&amp;quot; Her voice got low and sultry. &amp;quot;I&#039;d rather do something a lot more ... fun.&#039; She turned to the other female. &amp;quot;Emily, the other male is yours. The boss is going to want the woman, as usual.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was too late for John. Heck, he was about to finally get the woman that tormented him so. I decided I&#039;d protect Bran if I could. There was no way I could take on a whole pack, though. I can hold my own against any single werewolf, maybe even two or three of them. My feline agility and sharp claws gives me an edge. Four of them, with the rest of the pack upstairs was out of the question. We are ambush hunters, stalking jumping and pouncing. Wolves run down their prey until it drops from exhaustion. Even if I could get out of the basement, I could never outrun them. Fighting wasn&#039;t an option. I had to use my brains.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As Vivian marched John towards the stairs, Emily came into the cage to get me. I let go of Bran, jumped into the air, and kicked her in the chest with both feet. She slammed back into the bars. Before she could recover, I spun her around to face away from me, got her right arm into a half-nelson and wrapped my other hand around her throat, claws extended. Her eyed bulged. I yelled, &amp;quot;Vivian!&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian turned around, pushed John to one of the males, and walked up to the cage. &amp;quot;How did you know?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You have a distinctive scent.&amp;quot; I partially changed, showing her my cougar eyes and snout. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Wha the ...??? Interesting... I&#039;ve never heard of your kind before. Hmmm. Well, you obviously won&#039;t be joining our pack, but I don&#039;t think we need to worry. Let Emily go and come on upstairs and join us for dinner. We&#039;re having venison.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I shook my head. &amp;quot;Viv, about Branwen. She&#039;s no good to you. She&#039;s phobic. Can&#039;t you smell it? Do you really want a pack member that goes batshit crazy every full moon? Give her to me and I&#039;ll change her. She&#039;ll be better off as a cougar. Heck, she loves cats. She breeds Savannahs.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sighed. &amp;quot;Well, the boss won&#039;t like it, but you&#039;re probably right. But if she&#039;s not changed by morning, neither of you are leaving this cage.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I let Emily go with an apology, and said to Vivian, &amp;quot;Do you have any place with bit more privacy, and less grime?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian nodded. &amp;quot;Put them in the safe room. Emily, for letting him get the drop on you, you&#039;ll guard the door instead of joining us for dinner.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I had to carry Bran. Emily lead us to a door on the other side of the basement. &amp;quot;You can go in here. It&#039;s still a cell, but at least it has a real floor and a bed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She opened the door and motioned us in. The door was thick oak, riveted to iron bands. It closed behind us with a bang, and I heard heavy steel bolt slide home. The inside of the door was covered with gouges and claw marks. Some had bloodstains. The irony of the name safe room didn&#039;t escape me. This wasn&#039;t a refuge in a home invasion or tornado. They lock up werewolves that can&#039;t control their animal sides to keep the pack safe. I shuddered at the thought. If she joined the pack, Bran would probably spend all her full moon nights in here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The bed was really just a mattress in the corner, but it was better than the dirt floor of the cell. I laid Branwen down on it, and curled up against her back.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The moon was shining through the barred window high on the other wall when Bran finally stirred. She sat up, looked around, and said in a panicky voice, &amp;quot;What happened? Where are we? Where&#039;s John? Are the dogs gone?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I sat up and wrapped my arms around her, and said, &amp;quot;It&#039;s okay. Well, it&#039;s not okay, but it&#039;s better than it could have been.&amp;quot; I took a breath. &amp;quot;Bran, we&#039;re being held prisoner by werewolves.&amp;quot; She made a skeptical grunt. &amp;quot;Yes, they are real. Very, very real. They have John. He&#039;s probably one of them by now.&amp;quot; I paused for a breath. &amp;quot;The bad news is, you&#039;re not walking out of this room as a human. The good news is I convinced them to give you a choice. You can either become one of them, or let me change you&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;And what are you?&amp;quot; She asked. She sounded skeptical.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Were-cougar, Or catamount or puma if you prefer.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You&#039;re telling me we&#039;re captives of mythical creatures, and you turn into a cougar on the full moon.&amp;quot; Her voice sounded sarcastically unbelieving.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yes. Well, not necessarily on the full moon. Whenever I want to, really.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;So, you expect me to believe that if I let you bite me, I&#039;ll magically turn into a cougar? You know what they say about extraordinary claims.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well, first off, I&#039;d rather not have to bite you. That&#039;s uncivilized. Sex works just as well, and it&#039;s more fun. And as for extraordinary proof...&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I kicked off my shoes, pulled off my socks and stood in the shaft of moonlight from the window. I faced her and unbuttoned my shirt, took it off and dropped it on the mattress. I could tell she liked what she saw. One perk of being a shape shifter is a heightened metabolism. I&#039;m not muscle-bound by any means, but I am slim and toned. After unbuckling my belt and opening my fly, I hooked my thumbs over both waistbands of my pants and briefs and pushed them down to my ankles. I changed as I did. I pulled my hind paws out of my pants and padded over to where she was sitting. Her astonishment was plain. I head-butted her a few times, then touched my muzzle to her nose.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She reached up and tentatively touched the fur on my cheek. &amp;quot;Oh. My. God,&amp;quot; she said. &amp;quot;You&#039;re real! You&#039;re effin&#039; real! She started scratching behind my ears. I couldn&#039;t help myself. I started purring. Purring is the best compensations of being one of the lesser cats. Lions, tigers, jaguars and leopards can&#039;t purr.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bran laughed out loud with delight. &amp;quot;So. I&#039;ll be able to change and purr and all this, too?&amp;quot; She asked. I had the wrong mouth shape to talk now, so I nodded yes. &amp;quot;And I&#039;ll finally get you between my legs!&amp;quot; When Branwen first started working with us, she used to flirt with me. I managed to ignore it, although it was hard at times. I nodded again. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She stood up, said &amp;quot;It&#039;s my turn.&amp;quot; She pulled the barrettes from her hair so it spilled down her back. She unzipped the back of her dress and slowly let it drop to the ground. Her bra soon followed, and she stood in front of me wearing just panties, thigh-highs, and kitten heeled boots.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Intellectually, I could see she was really quite attractive, if a little on the round side. Physically, though, the sight of a naked human just didn&#039;t do it for my cat brain. She reached around my rump and caressed my sheath. &amp;quot;No? Huh. Oh, I think I know how to get him to come out and play.&amp;quot; She pulled her panties down and kicked them off. The scent of her nethers tickled my nose. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I dropped my jaw a little and pulled up my upper lip, so her scent could reach the special scent receptors in the roof of my mouth. Yes, she was damp. Doing it with a cougar was a turn on for her? If that was her kink, I was the luckiest guy in the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She cupped her pussy with one hand, then pushed two fingers inside herself. Then she reached out and rubbed her wetness on my muzzle. The smell was intoxicating. I was almost instantly fully engorged. I kept my cock mostly human, for two reasons. To be honest, we felines just aren&#039;t well hung. Even lions are lacking in the package. Second, I really liked her and didn&#039;t want to hurt her. We have barbed, spiky penises that would probably leave her a bloody mess down there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I pushed my snout between her legs and licked her folds gently, since my rough tongue might be too abrasive. Instead, I purred. Yeah that worked. Her dampness soon became wetness. It wasn&#039;t long before she was moaning softly. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She moved away from me and stepped over to the mattress. She knelt with her back to me, then dropped to all fours. With a come-hither look over her shoulder, she spread her knees apart, fully exposing that wet, wonderfully-scented pussy. With a pounce I covered her. I gently nipped her neck between my fangs, and dropped my hips to take her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Aaaand,&#039;&#039; I missed. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pussy pussies are farther back than a woman&#039;s, just below the bung. It was kind of embarrassing. I was glad my face was covered in fur. Before I could try again, she reached back and grasped me. After a few strokes with her hand, she pulled me down and forward and guided me inside her. Fuck! I thought. She actually &#039;&#039;wants&#039;&#039; this?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I started pumping into her. I had actually never had sex with a human woman since I was changed, so I was a bit worried that I&#039;d do it wrong. I wanted it to feel good for her. I must have been doing something right, she was soon moaning again. Or maybe it was her hypothetical cat fetish. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She moved with me, pushing back into my thrusts to take me fully inside herself, moaning with each one. The loudness and pitch increased until she yelped and I felt her contracting around me. That took me over the edge. Along with my load, I felt a burst of my were-energy, the energy that enables us to change, surge out of me into her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That&#039;s what actually would turn her, not the exchange of bodily fluids from sex or a bite. It triggered another, stronger orgasm in her. She collapsed onto the bed, and I fell on top of her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a minute. I started the change back to human. She felt my body shifting against her, and rolled over. &amp;quot;Don&#039;t change,&amp;quot; She said. &amp;quot;I like you like this.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed. I was still furred and clawed and snouted, but I could speak and wrap my arms around her. &amp;quot;Will this do? This way we can talk and cuddle.&amp;quot; I pulled her close, nuzzled her ear and purred.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mmm. I&#039;m going to have ask you to stop that. Sometime around 3 in the afternoon, I think.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Our presentation is at 2,&amp;quot; I replied.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Fuck the presentation!&amp;quot; She said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I&#039;d rather fuck you again. Besides, how do you have sex with a Powerpoint file?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, there was a knock on the door. The bolt slid back, and Emily stuck her head in. I put an arm across Bran&#039;s breasts, and draped my tail over her privates. Emily chuckled. &amp;quot;You&#039;re such a gentleman. Anyway, now that that&#039;s done, you can come upstairs and sleep in the guest room if you want. It has a real bed, and windows, and all that.&amp;quot; She looked at me and said, &amp;quot;Could you stay like that, so the pack can see you and smell you and know you really are a cougar.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We gathered our things. Bran threw her dress over her head. I hooked a thumb claw into the hole in the end of the zipper pull, and pulled it up for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The stairs were steep enough that Emily&#039;s butt was even with my eyes. A trail of wolfy lust musk wafted behind her. I doubted Bran could smell it, but I&#039;d have to tell her about the different meaning of privacy among shapeshifters. With our better hearing and smell, everyone knows who&#039;s doing who. We really can&#039;t hide it. Emily must have heard everything we did, and maybe even smelled it. I wondered what Bran would say when she found out I would lighten her workload when she was PMSing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first floor was littered with puppy piles of wolves. Some were just cuddling. Others smelled of sex. Gold eyes followed us, well mostly me, to the front stairs. Emily lead us up the stairs to a back bedroom. Moonlight flooded through the lace curtains. Our bags were by the dresser.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;div&gt;Hi. I created an account some months back under the name &amp;quot;Triskelynx,&amp;quot; and submitted a story, but now I can&#039;t find it. Anyway: here&#039;s a sequel to it:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Old Time Religion 2: Lord of the Forest]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:It was probably lost in the great crash. Sorry for the loss, but there is nothing we can do - the hard drives themselves went belly-up and we were unable to recover the data - as the best backups were stored in that non-mirrored, linear raid array, we had to use a second-best. Which was several years old. We&#039;ve now got a much better backup system running and if we happen to have another crash like that we won&#039;t lose more than a weeks worth of information. -- [[User:ShadowWolf|ShadowWolf]] 02:42, 3 December 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;Author&#039;s note: This is a sequel to a story that got lost in the crash. I&#039;ll have to recreate it at some point.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the missing story, a pair of college students went to see a movie. Instead, they met Aphrodite, who offered one of them a gift. He asked for better understanding of women, and was changed into one for a semester. Then she turned to the other, and said she&#039;d give him a boon as well, but someone else had plans for him. This is his story.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There is a love scene in this story. I tried to make it serve the plot, and tried to keep it in the realm of erotica rather than porn. I hope you&#039;ll think I succeeded.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d appreciate any constructive advice anyone might want to offer.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
--[[User:Triskelelynx|Triskelelynx]] 07:55, 7 January 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
----&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Let us worship like the druids,&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;And drink fermented fluids,&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;And naked through the woo-ids.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;It&#039;s good enough for me!&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My girlfriend Jess and I were standing on a hillside on the edges of the Texas Hill Country. It was May first - Beltaine - a warm spring night. We stood skyclad, or naked, in front an altar consisting of a large flat-topped boulder with an cloth embroidered with mystic symbols. On the wine-colored cloth was a chalice, a knife and several candles. Jess was calling her Goddess as we started the ceremony. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I had been somewhat amused by Jess&#039;s choice of belief until I met the goddess Aphrodite and had watched her change my roommate into a girl. Since then, I have become a believer in magic. I was clueless that Jess was interested in me until my roommate, Tom, now Tommie, told me. And that&#039;s how I ended up standing naked on a hillside, taking part in a neo-pagan ritual.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I listened as she finished her invocation and lit the Goddess candle. It was my turn to call the male half of the divinity. I began, rather nervously, to say the words I had rehearsed several times in my mind. Aphrodite had said that some other deity had plans for me. I  was sure that invoking a deity was asking for trouble. Still, I loved Jess, and she wanted me to be here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I mumbled something about the Lord of the Forest, Stag-king, Cernunnos, protector and father, asking him to join us and lend his power to our rite. I struck a match and lit the God&#039;s candle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Immediately, a surge of heat seared into my feet from the sandy soil. I tried to pick them up but could not. The heat traveled up my legs, and cramps in my calves and feet forced me onto my toes. Bones in my feet grated against each other. I looked down, and three of the toes on each feet were receding upwards. The other two were changing, darkening, hardening. It took me a few minutes to realize they were becoming hooves. Cloven deer hooves. I watched in horrified fascination as my feet grew longer, and the heat reshaped my ankles into hocks. Brown hair sprouted on my legs as my muscles and bones cramped and cracked. My shins shortened, and my thighs became powerful haunches. The heat traveled up my body until I felt like I was completely engulfed in flame.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At last, the burning stopped. From the waist down, I was a male elk. Above that, I was a man, a fit, muscular man, except for the impressive rack of antlers on my head.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An owl flew overhead, and I could feel its thoughts, focused on a mouse in the bushes on the other side of the clearing. I realized that I could feel all the life around me - all the birds and animals, down to the invertebrates scurrying across the ground and burrowing beneath it. I could even feel the web of life sustained by the microbes in soil, plants and air. I stood still, marveling and dumbfounded by the intricacy of the pulsating, constantly changing interplay of life energies that surrounded us.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I threw back my head, and bugled the challenge of the stag elk whose antlers and hooves I wore. The coyotes on the hillside stopped their hunt and added their song to mine. A white tail buck in the valley thicket below us answered me. A stallion on the ranch over the hill knelt to me. Even the military dogs on the Army camp on the horizon yelped and howled, confusing and alarming their handlers. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I was the Lord of the Forest, and I was magnificent. From horizon to horizon, every creature with the intelligence enough to do so signaled its obeisance to me.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All creatures save one. Jess. She stood facing me, with a small smile, lips slightly parted, and a look in her eyes that said she knew just what to do with an uppity male. She stepped forward and ran one hand up over my muscled chest, barely touching the skin. With her other hand, she reached up, grasped an antler, and pulled my face down to meet hers. Our lips touched, open mouthed, and her tongue lightly ran over mine. She held my mouth to hers with a hand on the back of my neck, as her other ran down and massaged the elk bull&#039;s sheath between my legs. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We made love on our altar. Her fair skin glowed gold and silver in the moonlight and candlelight. Her head was haloed by the pentacle embroidered on the altar cloth. She was every bit the Goddess to my God. I tried to be gentle, conscious of the size of my elk parts. She took me with a force that surprised me. A small part of my brain rebelled. After all, the head of my cock should be somewhere around her sternum. Then the rest of my brain said shut up, it&#039;s magic, and it need not follow the laws of the everyday world. We moaned loudly together as her orgasm brought me over the top. I lay down next to her, gathered her to me, and pulled the altar cloth over us as a blanket.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I woke up the next morning to a cloudy sunrise. The memory of last night&#039;s events came to me in a rush - the wonder of the magnitude and glory of the life surrounding us, and the sacred sex that followed. I grabbed my legs, unsure whether I hoped to feel human skin or elk hair.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I felt skin. It came with a deep sense of loss, mingled with relief. Then I realized my leg felt odd. Hard. Firm. I lifted up the altar cloth we were using. Instead of the scrawny body I had arrived with, I was toned and muscular.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A bluebird flew over us. I realized I had known it was going to before I saw or heard it. I didn&#039;t have the square mile awareness that I did last night, but I still had some of it. The same sense that told me about the bluebird told me that Jess was starting to wake up. She too had been blessed. Her body was toned and strong, yet quintessentially feminine. I woke her up with a kiss. We made love again as a soft, warm rain fell. After we finished, she reached up above my head, and handed me a perfect elk antler.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We completed our ritual and packed up our altar cloth and other implements. Then Jess and I gently dressed each other as we had undressed each other the night before. As we drove back to the Murchison U. campus, I wondered how to tell my dad I would not major in business like he wanted. Instead, I was going to major in ecology and minor in ancient religions. He wouldn&#039;t like it, but somehow I knew the entity that had possessed me the night before wanted it that way.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;By [[User_talk:Triskelelynx|Triskelelynx]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No matter how many times I checked my math, the answer came out the same. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I had flunked my Calculus II mid-term exam so badly that, even if I got straight 100s for the rest of the semester, my final grade would be too low to keep my scholarship. Without it, there was no way my family could pay my tuition at a private liberal arts college like Murchison U.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My roommate Scott heard me groan, and asked what was wrong. I explained, and he let out a low whistle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;That’s a serious bummer!” he said. “What are you going to do?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Transfer to State, I guess.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Damn. You‘ve been a good roommate.” He went back to studying, then a few minutes later said, “You need a cougar.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A what?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A cougar. A rich woman to pay your bills. The female equivalent of a sugar daddy.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Oh, stop it!&amp;quot; I yelled, &amp;quot;You want me to prostitute myself to pay for college? That&#039;s just wrong! And besides, how the heck could I attract a woman like that?” I was after all, a scrawny, somewhat nerdy engineering major.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He just smiled and went back to his reading, A few days later, he flashed me a big grin and showed me an ad on Craigslist. “Cougar wanted,” it said. “Nice but shy SWM, NS, college student seeks sugar mommy for …” I didn’t bother reading the rest. &amp;quot;Come one!” I said. “Did you place that ad?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yep! And you have a response already!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It took him a few days to convince me to let him reply for me. The next day, he told me that I had a lunch date Saturday at a Riverwalk café. I almost didn’t go, but I figured, what did I have to lose? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that is how I met Ashley. I was wearing my best jeans, a halfway decent button-down shirt, and a tie. I was a few minutes late. I’d like to say it was because I missed a bus connection, but it was mostly because I had trouble getting the knot in my tie right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked down the steps from street level to the Riverwalk and saw a slender woman sitting at a table set for two. She had her back to me, so my first impression was dirty blond hair gathered in a sliver clip at neck level, and hanging about halfway down the back of her white silk blouse. She was wearing a denim skirt just barely too short and tight for modesty, and knee high, snug-fitting cowboy boots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked up to the table, and she smiled up at me. “Are you Jake?” she asked. Her turquoise pendant matched the color of her eyes. She was somewhere in her mid-thirties, and very attractive, but not quite gorgeous. That was a relief. I always get awkward and tongue-tied around beautiful women. “Yes, ma’am,” I replied. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Then, have a seat. And lose the tie,” she said. “And don’t call me ma’am.” To be honest, I was glad she told me to take the tie off. I hated wearing ties. To me, ties are like inverted nooses. Also, it was getting rather warm in the sun. We spent a while in small talk, and then the waiter came over. She ordered for me, something Italian sounding and a glass of wine. I started to say that I was under 21, but she silenced me with a look. The waiter certainly looked like he wasn’t going to ask any questions. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The meal was delicious. It was a mixture of fresh vegetables, pasta and steak in a red sauce. Not a jar sauce you’d buy down in the HEB supermarket, but a sauce made from freshly diced tomatoes, herbs and red wine. We chatted some more while finishing out meals. After the waiter cleared the plates, her demeanor changed. Suddenly all business, she asked, “So, Jake, what do you want from me?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Instantly, a cat got my tongue. I had no idea what to say. Eventually, I managed to tell her the story about failing my Calc mid-term, losing my scholarship and my roommate’s solution. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“So, you’re looking for someone to pay your way through college,” she said. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I don’t know what I’m looking for, ma’am. It‘s just that I like Murch U., and I want to finish my degree there, and I don‘t know how to pay for it. When Scott said he‘d set up a date for me, I figured I could always say no if I felt uncomfortable about it. The worst I would be out an afternoon and the price of my lunch.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“What’s Scott’s phone number?” she asked, pulling a high-end smartphone from her purse. I told her, and she called him. First, she verified that Scott had indeed placed the Craigslist ad and set me up. Then, it sounded like she was checking a job candidate’s references. She thanked Scott, put her phone in her purse, then looked at me for several long, awkward minutes. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m actually a Murch alumna, class of ‘89, so I understand why you’d want to stay. I like you, Jake. I’ll tell you what. You’re tuition is paid through the end of the semester, right? Let’s consider that a probationary period. If we get along, and you work hard for me, and pull up your math grade as best you can, I’ll think about sponsoring you for the fall semester. In return, I’ll require your company once or twice a week as my personal assistant. If it doesn‘t work out, well, I know someone in the Admissions Office at State.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, that is how it started. Once or twice a week or so, I helped her out. I set up A/V equipment at her business meetings, provided company for dinner, ran errands for her, and was her general all-around gofer. The one thing I was both hoping for and afraid of never happened. She never invited me to her bedroom. In fact, she only touched me a handful of times, and never flirted or even hinted at sex. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She called me into her office after finals were over. She said, “You know, you’ve been a good worker. I’m not sure I’d have gotten the Boerne contract without you. Also, I talked to Dr. Drake, and he said you managed to pull off a B-. He was impressed, given your midterm grade. So, it seems like you fulfilled your part of our bargain. Now, whatever you decide about college, I’d like to keep you on for next year. Do you still want to go to Murch next year?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I nodded my head yes. “Good” She put a piece of paper in front of me. “This is a contract. It says that I will pay your tuition for the fall semester. In return, you agree to work as my personal assistant. You will also maintain a B average, and add a minor in business administration to your engineering classes. Also, within ten years of graduation, you will find a student in a similar position to yourself, and help them as I will be helping you. If you do not satisfy these terms, you will repay me. Is that acceptable?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Um, do you have a pen I could use?” I signed the contract, and she signed her name beside mine. Then, she pulled out an envelope and handed it to me. Inside was a check for the fall semester’s tuition, minus what financial aid I had managed to keep. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You’ll still be responsible for room, board and fees,” she said. I wasn’t about to complain. “Now, one other thing. If you are going to be my assistant next year, you’ll need more reliable transportation than the bus or your bike.” She handed me another envelope. Inside it were a set of keys, and the title, registration and insurance for a five year old Civic. “Consider it your bonus for helping me get that contract. I assume you can drive a manual? No? Well then, I’ll just have to teach you!” We spent the rest of the afternoon in the car, learning how to drive it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My parents were not at all happy about the deal. They thought Ashley was using me for something. They didn&#039;t know what, but they didn&#039;t trust her motives. They also didn’t like the fact that I would be with an older woman. It didn&#039;t matter that I said we&#039;d never had sex. In the end, though, I convinced them that a deal was a deal, and I couldn’t back out. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The fall semester passed much like the end of the previous spring, with me as her gofer and A/V squad, as well as occasional dinner dates and other non-work occasions. I learned a lot that I would never have learned at the university: how to read people, how to read a legal document, how to cook, how to choose a good wine, how to dress well. It was quite an education. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also helped out once in a while at her ranch in the hill country, clearing brush or restoring the old stone ranch house. She was trying to exterminate invasive salt cedar from her ranch, and it was a lot of hard work. One day, I looked down at some ground still damp from the rain a few days before, and saw what appeared to be a big cat track. She said it was a bobcat. I wasn’t so sure. It looked awfully big. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I went to the Army/Navy store the next day and bought a Ka-Bar. I knew I wouldn’t need it for a bobcat, and it wouldn’t help against a puma. Still, carrying it made me feel better when we were clearing brush. It made her laugh. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As I got to know her, I occasionally caught glimpses behind the facade she showed the world. She wasn&#039;t the strong, independent, self-sufficient businesswoman she liked people to think she was. Every once in a while, she&#039;d see a happy couple, and a lonely, wistful look would come over her face for just an instant. Once in a great while, she&#039;d start flirt with me, stop suddenly and deny it ever happened.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The weeks turned into months. We renewed our contract for the spring semester. My parents still didn’t like it. They did come up for Parent’s weekend to meet Ashley. She must have made a good impression, because their disapproval faded after that. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shortly after Spring Break, she said she had arranged a summer internship for me with a friend’s engineering company. I said, “Thanks, that’s great, but where will I stay? The dorms will be closed, and my parents live too far away to commute.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You can stay with me.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that’s how I ended up at her ranch one night in late May. After a wonderful dinner that we had cooked together, and more wine than I was used to, she started getting all flirty with me. I expected her to stop like always, but she didn&#039;t. Coming off the stress of final exams, I suppose I was more susceptible to seduction. One thing led to the next, and, the next thing I knew, I was flat on my back on her four-post bed, buck naked. The old floor-to-ceiling doors were open, and the curtains fluttered in the breeze. She was kneeling over me, naked and half-illuminated by the full moon’s light and candlelight, saying, “Do you trust me?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yes,“ I said. Get a 20 year guy old somewhat drunk and very hot and bothered, and he’ll say yes to just about anything a good looking woman asks. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She took one of my hands, and stretched it up over my head. With her other hand, she felt under her pillow, and pulled out a leather wrist cuff on a strap. She fastened it around my wrist, then did the same with my other arm. She did the same thing with my ankles. She then straddled my thighs and wrapped both hands around my cock. “Comfy?” she asked as she kneaded with her strong fingers. I was too distracted to reply with anything but a low moan. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She dug her nails into the tender skin along the underside of my cock. I gasped. I was about to complain, but rather than deflating, I had never been harder. She raised herself up onto her knees, shifted a bit, then impaled herself on me. She was hot, wet and tight. Hotter and tighter than anyone I had ever been with before. Not that I was very experienced. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I moaned again and closed my eyes. She lifted up again, and something sharp dragged against the top of my cock as she did so. I instantly sat up, or would have if my arms hadn’t been strapped down. “What the fuck!” I yelled as I looked down. Two thin scratches ran the length of my cock, with beads of blood forming. “Why the heck did you do that? Let me go!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m afraid I can’t, Jake. Not anymore. If I did, I’d have to kill you. And I like you too much to do that.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sank back down, and her vaginal wetness stung in the scratches. “You see, Jake,” she said as she leaned forward, the candles on the nightstands shining on her face, “I’m not exactly human, and soon you won’t be either.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As she said this, her irises changed from pale blue to green-flecked gold. The changes progressed outwards from there. Her eyelids turned black, and the outer corners shifted upwards. Her nose grew broader, then longer as her upper lip became fleshier and her jaws extended. Her ears became thin, pointed, and migrated back and up. She sat up again, and her breasts shrank until they were mostly nipple. Two rows of dark spots appeared below them, then grew into additional nipples. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sat there for a moment, with her hands resting on my belly. Each finger ended in a sharp, hooked claw. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m a shape shifter, a were-cougar. And now you will be too. It’s transmitted by exchange of bodily fluids. I could have bitten you, but I thought this would be more … fun. With my vashinal wetnesh in your bloodshtream, you will be a were-cougar, thoo!” She laughed, showing off long fangs and sharp incisors. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know, I wash thinking abouth thath Craigthlith ad.” Her diction was becoming slurred as her mouth became more and more catlike. “You really shoulth be carefull whath you athk for, jutht in cathe you geth ith!” By this time, he body was covered in pale brown fur, and her internal temperature became even hotter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My mind was torn. I wanted to rip out the straps and run. I wanted her to keep fucking me. I didn’t want to come and release the only control I had left. I couldn’t wait until I did. I was on the edge of panic when I finally orgasmed, my cock pulsing and throbbing inside what was now almost entirely a cougar. Only a few faint vestiges of humanity were still visible - fingers on her front paws, and a deeper brainpan than normal for a feline. She lay down on me and pushed her nose into my face. Her tail flicked between my ankles. Her whiskers tickled as she rubbed her cheeks on mine. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Scent marking me, claiming me as yours? I asked. She lifted her head, and nodded. All of a sudden, I had to laugh. She tilted her head as if to ask, “What?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I just came in a pussy pussy!” She crinkled her nose at me, and proceeded to lick my face with her very rough tongue. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The next morning, I woke up with my cock in something hot, wet and vibrating. It took me a minute to realize what was going on - the most incredible blowjob I’d ever gotten. She was purring! Between that and the incredible things her coarse tongue did to me, I quickly exploded into her mouth. She cleaned me off with her tongue, then licked her lips. It wasn’t until a few minutes later that I realized I wasn’t tied down anymore. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“There is a serious advantage to being one of the smaller cats,” she said. “Lions and tigers and leopards get all the press, but they can’t give purr jobs! Come on, breakfast is ready. Let’s eat while I explain.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Breakfast was delicious, as usual. As we ate, she told me that she had been an ROTC cadet until she was diagnosed with advanced hepatitis during her sophomore year. She lost her ROTC scholarship, and would have had to withdraw from Murch hadn’t one of her doctors taken her under his wing. Soon after, she let him seduce her, only to find herself being forced by a cougar. He was apologetic after, and taught her how to control her inner beast, but she never again let her guard down around him. And, until the previous night, had restricted herself to a few one-night stands with other were-folk. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know,” she said, “I wasn’t joking last night. When I said I’d have to kill you. It’s one of the few laws all weres have in common. Anyone who knows we exist must become one of us, or die. Had I let you go, we’d both be hunted down and killed.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She stopped spreading jam on her toast and put it down. “I’m sorry, Jake, truly I am. It’s just that I’ve been so alone. I can’t undo what I did to you last night. I wish I could have given you a choice.” I didn’t know what to say, so I said nothing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After that, we went our separate ways to work: me to my internship, her to her office. Afterward, I returned to the ranch to find her sitting on the patio, with wet eyes. I wasn’t sure yet how I felt about what she had done to me, but I still cared for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I sat next to her, and she said, “After Dr. Hennessey changed me, I felt like I had been raped. Yes, the sex was completely consensual, but what came with it… was very much like a rape. And now, I&#039;ve done the same thing to you. I feel so guilty. Can you forgive me?&amp;quot; She looked so miserable, so apologetic, that I took her in my arms, and kissed her tears away. Eventually, we were kissing, then she made love to me with an abandon that can only come from denying yourself for fifteen years. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then something she had said clicked. “You had unprotected sex with me, and you have hepatitis?” I almost screamed it at her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She laughed at me. That made me even madder. She actually laughed at me. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I turned you into a fucking werecat, and you’re worried about hepatitis?” She continued more quietly. “Jake, The virus can’t survive in a felid body, and most cougar diseases can’t survive in humans. About the only thing we have to worry about are rabies and toxoplasmosis. Avoid rabid animals, don‘t eat rats and wash your hands after changing a litter box, and you don‘t really have to worry about infectious disease at all.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the next several weeks like that. She’d wake me with a blowjob or sex, we’d go off to work, then come home for more. In between, she told me what to expect on the next night of the full moon. Eventually, she said, I’d be able to control it and change at will regardless of the moon phase, but for the next six months or so, I should plan on spending full moon nights at the ranch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During that time, I felt something strange building within me. Some sort of tension, or static electric energy. It felt like every nerve I had was buzzing with fear or with anticipation, I couldn’t tell which. Probably both. She enrolled me in meditation and tai chi lessons, and that was the only thing that really eased the itch. Well, that and sex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The morning of the full moon, I woke up before she did for a change. I was near bursting with the tension within me. I figured it was time to pay her back for all the wakeup calls she had given me. I slowly spread Ashley’s legs apart, then kissed the slit between them, at first gently, then with more and more pressure as her labia swelled and dampened. I licked and sucked and prodded with my tongue until I felt her spasm. Before the last wave crested, I flipped her on to her stomach, then took her from behind. Before long, she came again with me inside her. It felt so good that I followed shortly thereafter. I collapsed on top of her as we basked in the orgasm afterglow. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She lifted herself up on one elbow to look over her shoulder at me, smiled, and kissed me. Then she reached over to her handbag and pulled out a compact. She opened it up and held it so I could see myself in the mirror. My brown eyes had lightened to cougar gold. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I called in sick, and we spent most of the day clearing salt cedar. By the end of the day, I felt like I was holding a live wire or something. I heard a flutter behind me, and by reflex turned to look. My eye was immediately caught by the motion of a sparrow flying overhead. After it passed, I smelled its scent wafting down. All day, I was being distracted by the local wildlife. All the time I had helped her on her ranch, I had never noticed how much of it there was. Now, every rustle, every scent on the breeze, every glimpse of motion caught my attention. Late in the afternoon, we spooked a rabbit, and I almost started chasing it. Ashley laughed, put her arms around me and said “I’ve done that, too. Come on, it’s almost time.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the sun getting low in the sky, she led me to a secluded clearing near the creek. We undressed each other, then sat down to wait. The setting sun made everything glow, including her body. Her scent filled my nostrils. I reached for her. She put her arms around me, gave me a hug, and said, “Not now. Later, I promise.” She was still holding me as the nervous tension inside me jumped in a sudden crescendo. I looked up, and saw the moon rising over the hill across the valley. “It’s okay, baby. I’m here with you. I’ll be with you.” She kept murmuring reassurances in my ear. It started in my groin where she had - is infected the right word? - well, infected me. My cock and balls retreated backwards between my legs. My cock was slowly being enveloped by a sheath. As I watched, the tip disappeared inside it. Next to change were my fingertips. I felt pressure inside them. My fingernails grew thicker and longer and hooked into wickedly sharp claws. Then I felt the same thing in my toes. My toenails became claws, then my toes bent upwards as my foot bones lengthened. Then, I felt the same pressure in my jaws. First, my canines expanded in girth and length. I ran my tongue over my new fangs. The pressure grew to fill my lower face. I felt my jaws extending forward, pushed out by the pressure within. My nose broadened and suddenly, I was overwhelmed by the scents surrounding me. I focused on Ashley’s scent. Her odor, her words whispered in my ears, her arms around me kept me grounded, sane, as my ears were dragged backwards and upwards through my skull. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I became aware of pressure in my chest. It grew until it felt like my breastbone was being pulled away from my spine, and my ribs were being crushed in from side to side. With a wrenching, painful crack, my ribs rearranged themselves into the ovoid shape of the felid torso. My arms drooped and I panicked a bit until I recalled that the front legs of felids are not attached to the rest of the skeleton. I felt the muscles in my shoulders rearrange themselves to support my arms, which were rapidly becoming forelegs. My skin itched intolerably for what felt like an eternity. I looked down, and saw tawny fur growing. Soon, it covered my body. Then, with a sensation somewhere between a full-body toothache and a mind-blowing, toe-curling orgasm, the rest of my body followed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You know the feeling of release when the last item of clothing comes off, and you&#039;re finally fully naked for the first time with a new lover? That&#039;s what it felt like. I felt free. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It’s hard to describe what happened after that. It’s not that I don’t remember what happened. I can’t find the words to describe it. My best guess is, as the changes penetrated into my brain, I lost the use of language. Ashley’s murmured reassurances became a buzz. This scared me more than anything else had. Was I losing my identity, the memories and skills and experiences that made me who I am? Until then, I could think of myself as a human in a cougar body. Now I was losing that, too,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I panicked and tried to run, but my four legs betrayed me. I couldn’t coordinate them, and fell painfully on my snout. Ashley let me go, and got down on her hands and knees. She shifted into a cougar herself. It was the first time I got to watch her shift since that night four weeks before. I had been a bit distracted then. I was amazed by how fluid it looked, compared to how it felt when I changed. After I regained my feet, she led me into the bushes. I stumbled at first, but soon walking on four legs seemed natural. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the night prowling her ranch. She taught me how to walk, run, pounce, and climb on four legs instead of two, how to use night vision, smell and hearing to navigate instead of stumbling around in the dark. Towards dawn, she brought down a yearling buck, and I tasted hot blood for the first time. It was wonderful. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then she led me back to the clearing by the creek where we had first changed. We made love in the dawn sunlight as we regained our humanity. Over the summer, she taught me how to be a cougar, without losing my identity in the cougar mind.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;This story has the same lead character as [[Cougar Town]] but I think it will stand alone. It takes place about 15 years later.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I hope Vivian won&#039;t be there.&amp;quot; John said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You know she probably will,&amp;quot; replied Branwen. &amp;quot;The conference is in the same city as her office. You need to tell her to either stop flirting with you, or date you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I tried that. She just laughed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bran, John and I were in Bran&#039;s car, driving from Syracuse to Rochester for a convention. Bran and I were going to speak about the success of a village streetscape project. I was the design engineer and responsible for the overall project. Bran had designed the sidewalks, landscaping, and drainage. John headed another design team, and was along for the ride.&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian is our firm&#039;s lead real estate lawyer. John had to work with Vivian because extensive right-of-way purchases were needed for his project.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Every time she and John are in the same room, she flirts with him to the very limits of professional office behavior and sometimes beyond. As soon as he responds, though, she becomes a frigid cockblocker.  It doesn&#039;t help John that Vivian is a gorgeous redhead. Anyone could see why John hated it. Unlike most people, however, I can tell how seriously hot she is for him. I can smell it on her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also know why she can&#039;t act on her desire. You see, Vivian has a secret. She is a werewolf. I can smell that, too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also have a secret. I&#039;m a were-cougar. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well at least her hair makes her easy to spot,&amp;quot; I said. Don&#039;t worry. &amp;quot;Bran and I will run interference for you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, Bran&#039;s GPS beeped. John, in the passenger seat, looked at it and said, &amp;quot;The Thruway is closed ahead for some reason. Take the next exit. It looks like we&#039;re taking the back roads.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh. crap&amp;quot; Bran said. &amp;quot;At least there will be a full moon tonight, so it&#039;ll be easier to see.&amp;quot; I was already feeling the tingle of energy from the moon. Felines like me aren&#039;t as strongly tied to the moon as werewolves, but we still hear her call.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As we drove through the upstate New York countryside, we were treated to a gorgeous sunset in front of us, and a moonrise behind us. We crested a hill and were greeted by the sight of an old farmhouse and barn across the valley, glowing in the setting sun. As we dropped down into the shadow of the hill, I caught a flicker of motion off to the right. &amp;quot;Look out!&amp;quot; I yelled, just as a doe leapt over the road. It was followed by something grey that crashed into the front of the car, cracked the windshield, and went over the roof.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Branwen slammed on the brakes so hard that the ABS clattered like mad as the car slewed to a stop. We all got out. John went to check the damage to the car, and Bran looked for whatever we hit. As soon as I got out, the scent hit me. Werewolves! &amp;quot;Get back in the car, NOW!&amp;quot; I yelled. She looked at me, then behind me, and screamed. Something slammed into the back of the head, and the world went red and black.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first thing that I noticed when I came to was the scent of Branwen&#039;s fear. She has a strong phobia about dogs. To humans, werewolves would be scary enough. To a cynophobe, they must be terrifying. The second was a basementy smell, and a cold, damp dirt floor below me. I opened my eyes and by the light of a bare bulb, I saw that we were in a caged off section of a stone-walled basement. Bran was curled up in a ball in the corner, sobbing and rocking back and forth. Outside the bars were two male and two female werewolves. They were half-changed - still bipedal, but with fur and tails and fangs and thick blunt claws on their fingers and toes. A female with reddish fur pointed at John, and growled, &amp;quot;Bring out the tall one. He&#039;s mine.&amp;quot; She seemed familiar somehow, but I couldn&#039;t quite place it. They came into the cell, grabbed John, and dragged him out. As they did, I got a whiff of the female&#039;s scent. It was Vivian.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I pulled Bran close and wrapped my arms around her. She buried her head into the crook of my neck. She jumped as the cage door slammed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
John struggled in the grip of the two big males, nut soon gave up as futile. Vivian walked over to him, stopping only inches away from his body. He said, &amp;quot;My brother is a detective. An FBI agent. If you kill me, he&#039;ll find you!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian said, &amp;quot;Oh, I have no intention of killing you, but I can&#039;t let you go, either. If our secret gets out, we&#039;ll be persecuted and hunted. We can&#039;t let the Burning Times happen again. If you ever want to leave this basement, you have to become one of us. It&#039;s pack law.&amp;quot; During the so-called Renaissance, any of our kind that got caught were convicted of being witches and burned at the stake.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What are you going to do, bite me?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She put a hand-paw on his cheek. &amp;quot;I could. I&#039;d rather not.&amp;quot; Her voice got low and sultry. &amp;quot;I&#039;d rather do something a lot more ... fun.&#039; She turned to the other female. &amp;quot;Emily, the other male is yours. The boss is going to want the woman, as usual.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was too late for John. Heck, he was about to finally get the woman that tormented him so. I decided I&#039;d protect Bran if I could. There was no way I could take on a whole pack, though. I can hold my own against any single werewolf, maybe even two or three of them. My feline agility and sharp claws gives me an edge. Four of them, with the rest of the pack upstairs was out of the question. We are ambush hunters, stalking jumping and pouncing. Wolves run down their prey until it drops from exhaustion. Even if I could get out of the basement, I could never outrun them. Fighting wasn&#039;t an option. I had to use my brains.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As Vivian marched John towards the stairs, Emily came into the cage to get me. I let go of Bran, jumped into the air, and kicked her in the chest with both feet. She slammed back into the bars. Before she could recover, I spun her around to face away from me, got her right arm into a half-nelson and wrapped my other hand around her throat, claws extended. Her eyed bulged. I yelled, &amp;quot;Vivian!&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian turned around, pushed John to one of the males, and walked up to the cage. &amp;quot;How did you know?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You have a distinctive scent.&amp;quot; I partially changed, showing her my cougar eyes and snout. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Wha the ...??? Interesting... I&#039;ve never heard of your kind before. Hmmm. Well, you obviously won&#039;t be joining our pack, but I don&#039;t think we need to worry. Let Emily go and come on upstairs and join us for dinner. We&#039;re having venison.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I shook my head. &amp;quot;Viv, about Branwen. She&#039;s no good to you. She&#039;s phobic. Can&#039;t you smell it? Do you really want a pack member that goes batshit crazy every full moon? Give her to me and I&#039;ll change her. She&#039;ll be better off as a cougar. Heck, she loves cats. She breeds Savannahs.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sighed. &amp;quot;Well, the boss won&#039;t like it, but you&#039;re probably right. But if she&#039;s not changed by morning, neither of you are leaving this cage.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I let Emily go with an apology, and said to Vivian, &amp;quot;Do you have any place with bit more privacy, and less grime?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian nodded. &amp;quot;Put them in the safe room. Emily, for letting him get the drop on you, you&#039;ll guard the door instead of joining us for dinner.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I had to carry Bran. Emily lead us to a door on the other side of the basement. &amp;quot;You can go in here. It&#039;s still a cell, but at least it has a real floor and a bed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She opened the door and motioned us in. The door was thick oak, riveted to iron bands. It closed behind us with a bang, and I heard heavy steel bolt slide home. The inside of the door was covered with gouges and claw marks. Some had bloodstains. The irony of the name safe room didn&#039;t escape me. This wasn&#039;t a refuge in a home invasion or tornado. They lock up werewolves that can&#039;t control their animal sides to keep the pack safe. I shuddered at the thought. If she joined the pack, Bran would probably spend all her full moon nights in here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The bed was really just a mattress in the corner, but it was better than the dirt floor of the cell. I laid Branwen down on it, and curled up against her back.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The moon was shining through the barred window high on the other wall when Bran finally stirred. She sat up, looked around, and said in a panicky voice, &amp;quot;What happened? Where are we? Where&#039;s John? Are the dogs gone?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I sat up and wrapped my arms around her, and said, &amp;quot;It&#039;s okay. Well, it&#039;s not okay, but it&#039;s better than it could have been.&amp;quot; I took a breath. &amp;quot;Bran, we&#039;re being held prisoner by werewolves.&amp;quot; She made a skeptical grunt. &amp;quot;Yes, they are real. Very, very real. They have John. He&#039;s probably one of them by now.&amp;quot; I paused for a breath. &amp;quot;The bad news is, you&#039;re not walking out of this room as a human. The good news is I convinced them to give you a choice. You can either become one of them, or let me change you&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;And what are you?&amp;quot; She asked. She sounded skeptical.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Were-cougar, Or catamount or puma if you prefer.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You&#039;re telling me we&#039;re captives of mythical creatures, and you turn into a cougar on the full moon.&amp;quot; Her voice sounded sarcastically unbelieving.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yes. Well, not necessarily on the full moon. Whenever I want to, really.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;So, you expect me to believe that if I let you bite me, I&#039;ll magically turn into a cougar? You know what they say about extraordinary claims.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well, first off, I&#039;d rather not have to bite you. That&#039;s uncivilized. Sex works just as well, and it&#039;s more fun. And as for extraordinary proof...&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I kicked off my shoes, pulled off my socks and stood in the shaft of moonlight from the window. I faced her and unbuttoned my shirt, took it off and dropped it on the mattress. I could tell she liked what she saw. One perk of being a shape shifter is a heightened metabolism. I&#039;m not muscle-bound by any means, but I am slim and toned. After unbuckling my belt and opening my fly, I hooked my thumbs over both waistbands of my pants and briefs and pushed them down to my ankles. I changed as I did. I pulled my hind paws out of my pants and padded over to where she was sitting. Her astonishment was plain. I head-butted her a few times, then touched my muzzle to her nose.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She reached up and tentatively touched the fur on my cheek. &amp;quot;Oh. My. God,&amp;quot; she said. &amp;quot;You&#039;re real! You&#039;re effin&#039; real! She started scratching behind my ears. I couldn&#039;t help myself. I started purring. Purring is the best compensations of being one of the lesser cats. Lions, tigers, jaguars and leopards can&#039;t purr.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bran laughed out loud with delight. &amp;quot;So. I&#039;ll be able to change and purr and all this, too?&amp;quot; She asked. I had the wrong mouth shape to talk now, so I nodded yes. &amp;quot;And I&#039;ll finally get you between my legs!&amp;quot; When Branwen first started working with us, she used to flirt with me. I managed to ignore it, although it was hard at times. I nodded again. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She stood up, said &amp;quot;It&#039;s my turn.&amp;quot; She pulled the barrettes from her hair so it spilled down her back. She unzipped the back of her dress and slowly let it drop to the ground. Her bra soon followed, and she stood in front of me wearing just panties, thigh-highs, and kitten heeled boots.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Intellectually, I could see she was really quite attractive, if a little on the round side. Physically, though, the sight of a naked human just didn&#039;t do it for my cat brain. She reached around my rump and caressed my sheath. &amp;quot;No? Huh. Oh, I think I know how to get him to come out and play.&amp;quot; She pulled her panties down and kicked them off. The scent of her nethers tickled my nose. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I dropped my jaw a little and pulled up my upper lip, so her scent could reach the special scent receptors in the roof of my mouth. Yes, she was damp. Doing it with a cougar was a turn on for her? If that was her kink, I was the luckiest guy in the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She cupped her pussy with one hand, then pushed two fingers inside herself. Then she reached out and rubbed her wetness on my muzzle. The smell was intoxicating. I was almost instantly fully engorged. I kept my cock mostly human, for two reasons. To be honest, we felines just aren&#039;t well hung. Even lions are lacking in the package. Second, I really liked her and didn&#039;t want to hurt her. We have barbed, spiky penises that would probably leave her a bloody mess down there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I pushed my snout between her legs and licked her folds gently, since my rough tongue might be too abrasive. Instead, I purred. Yeah that worked. Her dampness soon became wetness. It wasn&#039;t long before she was moaning softly. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She moved away from me and stepped over to the mattress. She knelt with her back to me, then dropped to all fours. With a come-hither look over her shoulder, she spread her knees apart, fully exposing that wet, wonderfully-scented pussy. With a pounce I covered her. I gently nipped her neck between my fangs, and dropped my hips to take her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Aaaand,&#039;&#039; I missed. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pussy pussies are farther back than a woman&#039;s, just below the bung. It was kind of embarrassing. I was glad my face was covered in fur. Before I could try again, she reached back and grasped me. After a few strokes with her hand, she pulled me down and forward and guided me inside her. Fuck! I thought. She actually &#039;&#039;wants&#039;&#039; this?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I started pumping into her. I had actually never had sex with a human woman since I was changed, so I was a bit worried that I&#039;d do it wrong. I wanted it to feel good for her. I must have been doing something right, she was soon moaning again. Or maybe it was her hypothetical cat fetish. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She moved with me, pushing back into my thrusts to take me fully inside herself, moaning with each one. The loudness and pitch increased until she yelped and I felt her contracting around me. That took me over the edge. Along with my load, I felt a burst of my were-energy, the energy that enables us to change, surge out of me into her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That&#039;s what actually would turn her, not the exchange of bodily fluids from sex or a bite. It triggered another, stronger orgasm in her. She collapsed onto the bed, and I fell on top of her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a minute. I started the change back to human. She felt my body shifting against her, and rolled over. &amp;quot;Don&#039;t change,&amp;quot; She said. &amp;quot;I like you like this.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I half-changed. I was still furred and clawed and snouted, but I could speak and wrap my arms around her. &amp;quot;Will this do? This way we can talk and cuddle.&amp;quot; I pulled her close, nuzzled her ear and purred.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mmm. I&#039;m going to have ask you to stop that. Sometime around 3 in the afternoon, I think.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Our presentation is at 2,&amp;quot; I replied.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Fuck the presentation!&amp;quot; She said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I&#039;d rather fuck you again. Besides, how do you have sex with a Powerpoint file?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, there was a knock on the door. The bolt slid back, and Emily stuck her head in. I put an arm across Bran&#039;s breasts, and draped my tail over her privates. Emily chuckled. &amp;quot;You&#039;re such a gentleman. Anyway, now that that&#039;s done, you can come upstairs and sleep in the guest room if you want. It has a real bed, and windows, and all that.&amp;quot; She looked at me and said, &amp;quot;Could you stay like that, so the pack can see you and smell you and know you really are a cougar.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We gathered our things. Bran threw her dress over her head. I hooked a thumb claw into the hole in the end of the zipper pull, and pulled it up for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The stairs were steep enough that Emily&#039;s butt was even with my eyes. A trail of wolfy lust musk wafted behind her. I doubted Bran could smell it, but I&#039;d have to tell her about the different meaning of privacy among shapeshifters. With our better hearing and smell, everyone knows who&#039;s doing who. We really can&#039;t hide it. Emily must have heard everything we did, and maybe even smelled it. I wondered what Bran would say when she found out I would lighten her workload when she was PMSing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first floor was littered with puppy piles of wolves. Some were just cuddling. Others smelled of sex. Gold eyes followed us, well mostly me, to the front stairs. Emily lead us up the stairs to a back bedroom. Moonlight flooded through the lace curtains. Our bags were by the dresser.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Hi. I created an account some months back under the name &amp;quot;Triskelynx,&amp;quot; and submitted a story, but now I can&#039;t find it. Anyway: here&#039;s a sequel to it:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Old Time Religion 2: Lord of the Forest]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:It was probably lost in the great crash. Sorry for the loss, but there is nothing we can do - the hard drives themselves went belly-up and we were unable to recover the data - as the best backups were stored in that non-mirrored, linear raid array, we had to use a second-best. Which was several years old. We&#039;ve now got a much better backup system running and if we happen to have another crash like that we won&#039;t lose more than a weeks worth of information. -- [[User:ShadowWolf|ShadowWolf]] 02:42, 3 December 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

[[Cougar Town]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Cougar Country]]. A sequel of sorts to Cougar Town. It&#039;s a work in progress. &lt;br /&gt;

		<summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;Triskelelynx: Start of a sequel to Cougar Town&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;This story has the same lead character as [[Cougar Town]] but I think it will stand alone. It takes place about 15 years later.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I hope Vivian won&#039;t be there.&amp;quot; John said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You know she probably will,&amp;quot; replied Branwen. &amp;quot;The conference is in the same city as her office. You need to tell her to either stop flirting with you, or date you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I tried that. She just laughed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bran, John and I were in Bran&#039;s car, driving from Syracuse to Rochester for a convention. Bran and I were going to speak about the success of a village streetscape project. I was the design engineer and responsible for the overall project. Bran had designed the sidewalks, landscaping, and drainage. John headed another design team, and was along for the ride.&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian is our firm&#039;s lead real estate lawyer. John had to work with Vivian because extensive right-of-way purchases were needed for his project.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Every time she and John are in the same room, she flirts with him to the very limits of professional office behavior and sometimes beyond. As soon as he responds, though, she becomes a frigid cockblocker.  It doesn&#039;t help John that Vivian is a gorgeous redhead. Anyone could see why John hated it. Unlike most people, however, I can tell how seriously hot she is for him. I can smell it on her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also know why she can&#039;t act on her desire. You see, Vivian has another secret that her scent betrays to me. Vivian is a werewolf.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have a secrete too. I&#039;m also a shape-shifter. I&#039;m a were-cougar.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well at least her hair makes her easy to spot,&amp;quot; I said. &amp;quot;Bran and I will try to run interference for you.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, Bran&#039;s GPS beeped. John, in the passenger seat, looked at it and said, &amp;quot;The Thruway is closed ahead for some reason. Take the next exit. It looks like we&#039;re taking the back roads.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Oh. crap&amp;quot; Bran said. &amp;quot;At least there will be a full moon tonight, so it&#039;ll be easier to see.&amp;quot; I was already feeling the tingle of energy from the moon. Felines like me aren&#039;t as strongly tied to the moon as werewolves, but we still here her call.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As we drove through the upstate New York countryside, we were treated to a gorgeous sunset in front of us, and a moonrise behind us. We crested a hill and were greeted by the site of an old farmhouse and barn across the valley, glowing in the setting sun. As we dropped down into the shadow of the hill, I caught a flicker of motion off to the right. &amp;quot;Look out!&amp;quot; I yelled, just as a doe leapt over the road. It was followed by something grey that crashed into the front of the car, cracked the windshield, and went over the roof.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Branwen slammed on the brakes and the ABS clattered like mad as the car slewed to a stop. We all got out. John got out to check the damage to the car, and Bran looked for whatever we hit. As soon as I got out, the scent hit me. Werewolves! &amp;quot;Get back in the car, NOW!&amp;quot; I yelled. She looked at me, then behind me, and screamed. Something hit me hard on the back of the head, and the world went black.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Separator|j}} &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first thing that I noticed when I came to was the scent of Branwen&#039;s fear. She has a strong phobia about dogs. To humans, werewolves would be scary enough. To a cynophobe, they must be terrifying. The second was a basementy smell, and a cold, hard damp floor below me. I opened my eyes and saw by the light of a bare bulb that we were in a caged off section of the basement. Bran was curled up in a ball in the corner, sobbing and rocking back and forth. Outside the bars, were two male and two female werewolves. They were half-changed - still bipedal, but with fur and tails and fangs and thick blunt claws on their fingers and toes. A female with reddish fur seemed familiar somehow. She pointed at John, and growled, &amp;quot;Bring out the tall one. He&#039;s mine.&amp;quot; They came into the cell, grabbed John, and dragged him out. As they did, I got a whiff of the female&#039;s scent. It was Vivian.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I pulled Bran close and wrapped my arms around her. She buried her head into the crook of my neck. She jumped as the cage door slammed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
John soon gave up his struggles. He must have realized it was futile. Vivian walked over to him, stopping only inches away from his body. He said, &amp;quot;My brother is a detective. An FBI agent. If you kill me, he&#039;ll find you!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian said, &amp;quot;Oh, I have no intention of killing you, but I can&#039;t let you go, either.  If our secret gets out, we&#039;ll be persecuted and hunted, just like in the Burning Times. We can&#039;t let that happen again. If you ever want to leave this basement, you have to become one of us. It&#039;s pack law.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;What are you going to do, bite me?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She put a hand-paw on his cheek. &amp;quot;I could. I&#039;d rather not.&amp;quot; Her voice got low and sultry. &amp;quot;I&#039;d rather do something a lot more ... fun.&#039; She turned to the other female. &amp;quot;Emily, the other male is yours. The boss is going to want the woman.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was too late for John. He might even like it, finally getting the woman that tormented him so, but I decided I&#039;d protect Bran if I could. I can hold my own against any single werewolf, maybe even several of them. My feline agility and sharp claws gives me an edge, one on one. Four of them, and the rest of the pack upstairs is different. Cougars are ambush hunters. We are ambush hunters, stalking and pouncing. Wolves run down their prey until it drops from exhaustion. Even if I could get out of the basement, there was no way I could out run them. Fighting wasn&#039;t an option. I had to use my brains.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As Vivian marched John towards the stairs, Emily came into the cage. I let go of Bran, jumped into the air, and kicked her in the chest. She was knocked back into the bars. As the door slammed shut, I turned her around, got one arm into a half-nelson and wrapped my other hand around her throat, claws extended. Her eyed bulged. I yelled, &amp;quot;Vivian!&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She turned around, pushed John to one of the males, and walked up to the cage. &amp;quot;How did you know?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You have a distinctive scent.&amp;quot; I partially changed, showing her my cougar eyes and snout. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Interesting... I&#039;ve never heard of a were-feline before. Hmmm. Well, you obviously won&#039;t be joining our pack, but I don&#039;t think we need to worry. Let Emily go and come upstairs. We&#039;re having venison for dinner.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I shook my head. &amp;quot;Viv, about Branwen. She&#039;s no good to you. She&#039;s phobic. Can&#039;t you smell it? Do you really want a pack member that goes batshit crazy every full moon? Give her to me and I&#039;ll change her. She&#039;ll be better off as a cougar. Heck, she loves cats. She breeds Savannahs.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sighed. &amp;quot;Well, the boss won&#039;t like it, but you&#039;re probably right. But if she&#039;s not changed by morning, neither of you are leaving this cage.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I let Emily go with an apology, and said to Vivian, &amp;quot;Do you have any place with bit more privacy, and less grime?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vivian nodded. &amp;quot;Put them in the safe room. Emily, for letting him get the drop on you, you&#039;ll guard the door instead of joining us for dinner.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I had to carry Bran. Emily lead us to a door on the other side of the basement. &amp;quot;You can go in here. It&#039;s still a cell, but at least it has a real floor and a bed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She opened the door and motioned us in. The door was thick oak, riveted to iron bands. It closed behind us with a bang, and I heard heavy steel bolt slide home. The inside of the door was covered with gouges and claw marks. Some had bloodstains. The irony of the name safe room didn&#039;t escape me. They lock up werewolves that can&#039;t control their animal sides to keep the pack safe. If she had to join the pack, Bran would probably have spent her full moon nights in here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The bed was really just a mattress in the corner, but it was better than the dirt floor of the cell. I laid Branwen down on it, and curled up against her back.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The moon was shining through the barred window high on the other wall when Bran finally stirred. She sat up, looked around, and said in a panicky voice, &amp;quot;What happened? Where are we? Where&#039;s John? Are the dogs gone?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I sat up and wrapped my arms around her, and said, &amp;quot;It&#039;s okay. Well, it&#039;s not okay, but it&#039;s better than it could have been.&amp;quot; I took a breath. &amp;quot;Bran, we&#039;re being held prisoner by werewolves.&amp;quot; She made a skeptical grunt. &amp;quot;Yes, they are real. Very, very real. They have John. He&#039;s probably one of them by now. The bad news is, you&#039;re not walking out of this room as a human. The good news is I convinced them to give you have a choice. You can either become one of them, or let me change you&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;And what are you?&amp;quot; She asked. She sounded skeptical.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Were-cougar, Or catamount or puma if you prefer.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You&#039;re telling me you turn into a cougar on the full moon.&amp;quot; Her voice sounded sarcastically unbelieving.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Yes. Well, not necessarily on the full moon. Whenever I want to, really.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;So, you expect me to believe that if I let you bite me, I&#039;ll magically turn into a cougar? You know what they say about extraordinary claims.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Well, first off, I&#039;d rather not have to bite you. That&#039;s uncivilized. Sex works just as well, and it&#039;s more fun. And as for extraordinary proof...&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I kicked off my shoes, pulled off my socks and stood in the shaft of moonlight from the window. I faced her and unbuttoned my shirt, took it off and dropped it on the mattress. I could tell she liked what she saw. One perk of being a shape shifter is a heightened metabolism. I&#039;m not muscle-bound by any means, but I am slim and toned. After unbuckling my belt and opening my fly, I hooked my thumbs over the waistbands of my pants and briefs and pushed them down to my ankles. I changed as I did. I pulled my hind paws out of my pants and padded over to where she was sitting. Her astonishment was plain. I head-butted her a few times, then touched my muzzle to her nose.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She reached up and tentatively touched the fur on my cheek. &amp;quot;Oh. My. God,&amp;quot; she said. &amp;quot;You&#039;re real! You&#039;re effin&#039; real! She started scratching behind my ears. I couldn&#039;t help myself. I started purring. Purring is one of the compensations of being one of the lesser cats. Lions, tigers, jaguars and leopards can&#039;t purr.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bran laughed out loud with delight.&amp;quot;So. I&#039;ll be able to change and purr and all this, too?&amp;quot; She asked. I had the wrong mouth shape to talk now, so I nodded yes. &amp;quot;And I&#039;ll finally get you between my legs!&amp;quot; When Branwen first started working with us, she used to flirt with me. I managed to ignore it, although it was hard at times. I nodded again. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She stood up, said &amp;quot;It&#039;s my turn.&amp;quot; She pulled the barrettes from her hair, letting it spill down her back, then unzipped the back of her dress and let it drop to the ground. Her bra soon followed, and she stood in front of me wearing panties, thigh-highs, and kitten heeled boots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Intellectually, I could see she was really quite attractive, if a little on the round side. Physically, though, the sight of a naked woman just didn&#039;t do it for my cat brain. She reached around my rump and caressed my sheath. &amp;quot;No? Huh. Oh, I think I know how to get him to come out and play.&amp;quot; She pulled her panties down and kicked them off. The scent of her nethers tickled my nose. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I dropped my jaw a little and pulled up my upper lip, so her scent could reach the special scent receptors in the roof of my mouth. She was damp. Doing it with a cougar was a turn on for her? If that was her kink, I was the luckiest guy in the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She cupped her pussy with one hand, then pushed two fingers inside herself. Then she reached out and rubbed her wetness on my muzzle. Her scent was intoxicating. I was almost instantly fully engorged. I kept my cock mostly human, for two reasons. To be honest, we felines just aren&#039;t well hung. Even lions are lacking in the package. Second, I really liked her and didn&#039;t want to hurt her. We have barbed, spiky penises that would probably leave her a bloody mess down there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I pushed my snout between her legs and gently licked her folds since my rough tongue might be too abrasive. Instead, I purred. That worked. Her dampness soon became wetness. It wasn&#039;t long before she was moaning softly. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She moved away from me and stepped over to the mattress. She knelt with her back to me, then dropped to all fours. With a come-hither look over her shoulder, she spread her knees apart, fully exposing that wet, wonderfully-scented pussy. With a pounce I covered her. I gently nipped her neck between my fangs, and dropped my hips to take her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Aaaand I missed. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pussy pussies are farther back than a woman&#039;s, just below the bung. I was a bit embarrassed. What would she think? Before I could try again, she reached back and grasped me. After a few strokes with her hand, she pulled me down and forward and guided me inside her. Fuck! I thought. She actually wants this?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I started pumping into her. I had actually never had sex with a human woman since I was changed, so I was a bit worried that I&#039;d do it wrong. I wanted it to feel good for her. I must have been doing something right, she was soon moaning again. Or maybe it was her hypothetical cat fetish. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She moved with me, pushing back into my thrusts to take me fully inside herself, moaning with each one. The loudness and pitch increased until she yelped and I felt her contracting around me. That took me over the edge. Along with my load, I felt a burst of my were-energy, the energy that enables us to change, surge out of me into her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That&#039;s what actually would turn her, not the exchange of bodily fluids from sex or a bite. It triggered another, stronger orgasm in her. She collapsed onto the bed, and I fell on top of her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After a minute. I started the change back to human. She felt my body shifting against her, and rolled over. &amp;quot;Don&#039;t change,&amp;quot; She said. &amp;quot;I like you like this.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I stopped half way. I was still furred and clawed and snouted, but I could talk wrap my arms around her. &amp;quot;Will this do? This way we can talk and cuddle.&amp;quot; I pulled her close, nuzzled her ear and purred.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mmm. I&#039;ll have ask you to stop doing that. Sometime around 3 in the afternoon, I think.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Our presentation is at 2,&amp;quot; I replied.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Fuck the presentation!&amp;quot; She said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I&#039;d rather fuck you again. Besides, how do you have sex with a Powerpoint file?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just then, there was a knock on the door. The bolt slid back, and Emily stuck her head in. I put an arm across Bran&#039;s breasts, and draped my tail over her privates. Emily chuckled. &amp;quot;You&#039;re such a gentleman. Anyway, nNow that that&#039;s done, you can come upstairs and sleep in the guest room if you want. It has a real bed, and windows, and all that.&amp;quot; She looked at me and said, &amp;quot;It would be good if you could stay like that, so the pack can see you and smell you and know you really are a cougar.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We gathered our things. Bran through her dress over her head. I hooked a thumb claw into the hole in the end of the zipper pull, and pulled it up. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The stairs were steep enough that Emily&#039;s butt was even with my eyes. A trail of wolfy lust musk wafted behind her. I doubted Bran could smell it, but I&#039;d have to tell her about the different meaning of privacy among shapeshifters. With our better hearing and smell, everyone knows who&#039;s doing who. We really can&#039;t hide it. Emily must have heard everything we did, and maybe even smelled it. I wondered what Bran would say when she found out I would lighten her workload when she was PMSing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first floor was littered with puppy piles of wolves. Some were just cuddling. Others smelled of sex. Gold eyes followed us, well mostly me, to the front stairs. Emily lead us up the stairs to a back bedroom. Moonlight flooded through the lace curtains. Our bags were by the dresser.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;By [[User_talk:Triskelelynx|Triskelelynx]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No matter how many times I checked my math, the answer came out the same. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I had flunked my Calculus II mid-term exam so badly that, even if I got straight 100s for the rest of the semester, my final grade would not be high enough to keep my scholarship. Without it, there was no way my family could pay my tuition at a private liberal arts college like Murchison U.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My roommate heard me groan, and asked what was wrong. I explained, and he let out a low whistle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;That’s a serious bummer!” he said. “What are you going to do?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Transfer to State, I guess.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Damn. You‘ve been a good roommate.” He went back to studying, then a few minutes later said, “You need a cougar.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A what?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A cougar. A rich woman to pay your bills. The female equivalent of a sugar daddy.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Oh, stop it!&amp;quot; I yelled, &amp;quot;You want me to prostitute myself to pay for college? That&#039;s just wrong! And besides, how the heck could I attract a woman like that?” I was after all, a scrawny, somewhat nerdy engineering major.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He just smiled and went back to his reading, A few days later, he flashed me a big grin and showed me an ad on Craigslist. “Cougar wanted,” it said. “Nice but shy SWM, NS, college student seeks sugar mommy for …” I didn’t bother reading the rest. &amp;quot;Come one!” I said. “Did you place that ad?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yep! And you have a response already!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It took him a few days to convince me to let him reply for me. The next day, he told me that I had a lunch date Saturday at a Riverwalk café. I almost didn’t go, but I figured, what did I have to lose? If it didn’t go well, I’d be out a few dollars for lunch and the bus fare.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that is how I met Ashley. I was wearing my best jeans, a halfway decent button-down shirt, and a tie. I was a few minutes late. I’d like to say it was because I missed a bus connection, but it was mostly because I had trouble getting the knot in my tie right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked down the steps from street level to the Riverwalk and saw a slender woman sitting at a table set for two. She had her back to me, so my first impression was dirty blond hair gathered in a sliver clip at neck level, and hanging about halfway down the back of her white silk blouse. She was wearing a denim skirt just barely too short and tight for modesty, and high, snug-fitting cowboy boots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked up to the table, and she smiled up at me. “Are you Jake?” she asked. Her turquoise pendant matched the color of her eyes. She was somewhere in her mid-thirties, and very attractive, but not quite gorgeous. That was a relief. I always get awkward and tongue-tied around beautiful women. “Yes, ma’am,” I replied. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Then, have a seat. And lose the tie,” she said. “And don’t call me ma’am.” To be honest, I was glad she told me to take the tie off. I hated wearing ties. To me, ties are like inverted nooses. Also, it was getting rather warm in the sun. We spent a while in small talk, and then the waiter came over. She ordered for me, something Italian sounding and a glass of wine. I started to say that I was under 21, but she silenced me with a look. The waiter certainly looked like he wasn’t going to ask any questions. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The meal was delicious. It was a mixture of fresh vegetables, pasta and steak in a red sauce. Not a jar sauce you’d buy down in the HEB supermarket, but a sauce made from freshly diced tomatoes, herbs and red wine. We chatted some more while finishing out meals. After the waiter cleared the plates, her demeanor changed. Suddenly all business, she asked, “So, Jake, what do you want from me?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Instantly, a cat got my tongue. I had no idea what to say. Eventually, I managed to tell her the story about failing my Calc mid-term, losing my scholarship and my roommate’s solution. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“So, you’re looking for someone to pay your way through college,” she said. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I don’t know what I’m looking for, ma’am. It‘s just that I like Murch U., and I want to finish my degree there, and I don‘t know how to pay for it. When Scott said he‘d set up a date for me, I figured I could always say no if I felt uncomfortable about it. The worst I would be out an afternoon and the price of my lunch.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“What’s Scott’s phone number?” she asked, pulling a high-end smartphone from her purse. I told her, and she called him. First, she verified that Scott had indeed placed the Craigslist ad and set me up. Then, it sounded like she was checking a job candidate’s references. She thanked Scott, put her phone in her purse, then looked at me for several long, awkward minutes. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m actually a Murch alumna, class of ‘89, so I understand why you’d want to stay. I like you, Jake. I’ll tell you what. You’re tuition is paid through the end of the semester, right? Let’s consider that a probationary period. If we get along, and you work hard for me, and pull up your math grade as best you can, I’ll think about sponsoring you for the fall semester. In return, I’ll require your company once or twice a week as my personal assistant. If it doesn‘t work out, well, I know someone in the Admissions Office at State.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, that is how it started. Once or twice a week or so, I helped her out. I set up A/V equipment at her business meetings, provided company for dinner, ran errands for her, and was her general all-around gofer. The one thing I was both hoping for and afraid of never happened. She never invited me to her bedroom. In fact, she only touched me a handful of times, and never flirted or even hinted at sex. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She called me into her office after finals were over. She said, “You know, you’ve been a good worker. I’m not sure I’d have gotten the Boerne contract without you. Also, I talked to Dr. Drake, and he said you managed to pull off a B-. He was impressed, given your midterm grade. So, it seems like you fulfilled your part of our bargain. Now, whatever you decide about college, I’d like to keep you on for next year. Do you still want to go to Murch next year?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I nodded my head yes. “Good” She put a piece of paper in front of me. “This is a contract. It says that I will pay your tuition for the fall semester. In return, you agree to work as my personal assistant. You will also maintain a B average, and add a minor in business administration to your engineering classes. Also, within ten years of graduation, you will find a student in a similar position to yourself, and help them as I will be helping you. If you do not satisfy these terms, you will repay me. Is that acceptable?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Um, do you have a pen I could use?” I signed the contract, and she signed her name beside mine. Then, she pulled out an envelope and handed it to me. Inside was a check for the fall semester’s tuition, minus what financial aid I had managed to keep. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You’ll still be responsible for room, board and fees,” she said. I wasn’t about to complain. “Now, one other thing. If you are going to be my assistant next year, you’ll need more reliable transportation than the bus or your bike.” She handed me another envelope. Inside it were a set of keys, and the title, registration and insurance for a five year old Civic. “Consider it your bonus for helping me get that contract. I assume you can drive a manual? No? Well then, I’ll just have to teach you!” We spent the rest of the afternoon in the car, learning how to drive it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My parents were not at all happy about the deal. They thought Ashley was using me for something. They didn&#039;t know what, but they didn&#039;t trust her motives. They also didn’t like the fact that I would be with an older woman. It didn&#039;t matter that I said we&#039;d never had sex. In the end, though, I convinced them that a deal was a deal, and I couldn’t back out. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The fall semester passed much like the end of the previous spring, with me as her gofer and A/V squad, as well as occasional dinner dates and other non-work occasions. I learned a lot that I would never have learned at the university: how to read people, how to read a legal document, how to cook, how to choose a good wine, how to dress well. It was quite an education. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also helped out once in a while at her ranch in the hill country, clearing brush or restoring the old stone ranch house. She was trying to exterminate invasive salt cedar from her ranch, and it was a lot of hard work. One day, I looked down at some ground still damp from the rain a few days before, and saw what appeared to be a big cat track. She said it was a bobcat. I wasn’t so sure. It looked awfully big. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I went to the Army/Navy store the next day and bought a Ka-Bar. I knew I wouldn’t need it for a bobcat, and it wouldn’t help against a puma. Still, carrying it made me feel better when we were clearing brush. It made her laugh. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As I got to know her, I occasionally caught glimpses behind the facade she showed the world. She wasn&#039;t the strong, independent, self-sufficient businesswoman she liked people to think she was. Every once in a while, she&#039;d see a happy couple, and a lonely, wistful look would come over her face for just an instant. Once in a great while, she&#039;d start flirt with me, stop suddenly and deny it ever happened.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The weeks turned into months. We renewed our contract for the spring semester. My parents still didn’t like it. They did come up for Parent’s weekend to meet Ashley. She must have made a good impression, because their disapproval faded after that. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shortly after Spring Break, she said she had arranged a summer internship for me with a friend’s engineering company. I said, “Thanks, that’s great, but where will I stay? The dorms will be closed, and my parents live too far away to commute.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You can stay with me.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that’s how I ended up at her ranch one night in late May. After a wonderful dinner that we had cooked together, and more wine than I was used to, she started getting all flirty with me. I expected her to stop like always, but she didn&#039;t. Coming off the stress of final exams, I suppose I was more susceptible to seduction. One thing led to the next, and, the next thing I knew, I was flat on my back on her four-post bed, buck naked. The old floor-to-ceiling doors were open, and the curtains fluttered in the breeze. She was kneeling over me, naked and half-illuminated by the full moon’s light and candlelight, saying, “Do you trust me?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yes,“ I said. Get a 20 year guy old somewhat drunk and very hot and bothered, and he’ll say yes to just about anything a good looking woman asks. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She took one of my hands, and stretched it up over my head. With her other hand, she felt under her pillow, and pulled out a leather wrist cuff on a strap. She fastened it around my wrist, then did the same with my other arm. She did the same thing with my ankles. She then straddled my thighs and wrapped both hands around my cock. “Comfy?” she asked as she kneaded with her strong fingers. I was too distracted to reply with anything but a low moan. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She dug her nails into the tender skin along the underside of my cock. I gasped. I was about to complain, but rather than deflating, I had never been harder. She raised herself up onto her knees, shifted a bit, then impaled herself on me. She was hot, wet and tight. Hotter and tighter than anyone I had ever been with before. Not that I was very experienced. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I moaned again and closed my eyes. She lifted up again, and something sharp dragged against the top of my cock as she did so. I instantly sat up, or would have if my arms hadn’t been strapped down. “What the fuck!” I yelled as I looked down. Two thin scratches ran the length of my cock, with beads of blood forming. “Why the heck did you do that? Let me go!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m afraid I can’t, Jake. Not anymore. If I did, I’d have to kill you. And I like you too much to do that.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sank back down, and her vaginal wetness stung in the scratches. “You see, Jake,” she said as she leaned forward, the candles on the nightstands shining on her face, “I’m not exactly human, and soon you won’t be either.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As she said this, her irises changed from pale blue to green-flecked gold. The changes progressed outwards from there. Her eyelids turned black, and the outer corners shifted upwards. Her nose grew broader, then longer as her upper lip became fleshier and her jaws extended. Her ears became thin, pointed, and migrated back and up. She sat up again, and her breasts shrank until they were mostly nipple. Two rows of dark spots appeared below them, then grew into additional nipples. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sat there for a moment, with her hands resting on my belly. Each finger ended in a sharp, hooked claw. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m a shape shifter, a were-cougar. And now you will be too. It’s transmitted by exchange of bodily fluids. I could have bitten you, but I thought this would be more … fun. With my vashinal wetnesh in your bloodshtream, you will be a were-cougar, thoo!” She laughed, showing off long fangs and sharp incisors. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know, I wash thinking abouth thath Craigthlith ad.” Her diction was becoming slurred as her mouth became more and more catlike. “You really shoulth be carefull whath you athk for, jutht in cathe you geth ith!” By this time, he body was covered in pale brown fur, and her internal temperature became even hotter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My mind was torn. I wanted to rip out the straps and run. I wanted her to keep fucking me. I didn’t want to come and release the only control I had left. I couldn’t wait until I did. I was on the edge of panic when I finally orgasmed, my cock pulsing and throbbing inside what was now almost entirely a cougar. Only a few faint vestiges of humanity were still visible - fingers on her front paws, and a deeper brainpan than normal for a feline. She lay down on me and pushed her nose into my face. Her tail flicked between my ankles. Her whiskers tickled as she rubbed her cheeks on mine. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Scent marking me, claiming me as yours? I asked. She lifted her head, and nodded. All of a sudden, I had to laugh. She tilted her head as if to ask, “What?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I just came in a pussy pussy!” She crinkled her nose at me, and proceeded to lick my face with her very rough tongue. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The next morning, I woke up with my cock in something hot, wet and vibrating. It took me a minute to realize what was going on - the most incredible blowjob I’d ever gotten. She was purring! Between that and the incredible things her coarse tongue did to me, I quickly exploded into her mouth. She cleaned me off with her tongue, then licked her lips. It wasn’t until a few minutes later that I realized I wasn’t tied down anymore. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“There is a serious advantage to being one of the smaller cats,” she said. “Lions and tigers and leopards get all the press, but they can’t give purr jobs! Come on, breakfast is ready. Let’s eat while I explain.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Breakfast was delicious, as usual. As we ate, she told me that she had been an ROTC cadet until she was diagnosed with advanced hepatitis during her sophomore year. She lost her ROTC scholarship, and would have had to withdraw from Murch hadn’t one of her doctors taken her under his wing. Soon after, she let him seduce her, only to find herself being forced by a cougar. He was apologetic after, and taught her how to control her inner beast, but she never again let her guard down around him. And, until the previous night, had restricted herself to a few one-night stands with other were-folk. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know,” she said, “I wasn’t joking last night. When I said I’d have to kill you. It’s one of the few laws all weres have in common. Anyone who knows we exist must become one of us, or die. Had I let you go, we’d both be hunted down and killed.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She stopped spreading jam on her toast and put it down. “I’m sorry, Jake, truly I am. It’s just that I’ve been so alone. I can’t undo what I did to you last night. I wish I could have given you a choice.” I didn’t know what to say, so I said nothing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After that, we went our separate ways to work: me to my internship, her to her office. Afterward, I returned to the ranch to find her sitting on the patio, with wet eyes. I wasn’t sure yet how I felt about what she had done to me, but I still cared for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I sat next to her, and she said, “After Dr. Hennessey changed me, I felt like I had been raped. Yes, the sex was completely consensual, but what came with it… was very much like a rape. And now, I&#039;ve done the same thing to you. I feel so guilty. Can you forgive me?&amp;quot; She looked so miserable, so apologetic, that I took her in my arms, and kissed her tears away. Eventually, we were kissing, then she made love to me with an abandon that can only come from denying yourself for fifteen years. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then something she had said clicked. “You had unprotected sex with me, and you have hepatitis?” I almost screamed it at her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She laughed at me. That made me even madder. She actually laughed at me. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I turned you into a fucking werecat, and you’re worried about hepatitis?” She continued more quietly. “Jake, The virus can’t survive in a felid body, and most cougar diseases can’t survive in humans. About the only thing we have to worry about are rabies and toxoplasmosis. Avoid rabid animals. don‘t eat rats and wash your hands after changing a litter box, and you don‘t really have to worry about infectious disease at all.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the next several weeks like that. She’d wake me with a blowjob or sex, we’d go off to work, then come home for more. In between, she told me what to expect on the next night of the full moon. Eventually, she said, I’d be able to control it and change at will regardless of the moon phase, but for the next six months or so, I should plan on spending full moon nights at the ranch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During that time, something strange was building within me. Some sort of tension, or static electric energy. It felt like every nerve I had was buzzing with fear or with anticipation, I couldn’t tell which. Probably both. She enrolled me in meditation and tai chi lessons, and that was the only thing that really eased the itch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The morning of the full moon, I woke up before she did for a change. I was near bursting with the tension within me. I figured it was time to pay her back for all the wakeup calls she had given me. I slowly spread Ashley’s legs apart, then kissed the slit between them, at first gently, then with more and more pressure as her labia swelled and dampened. I licked and sucked and prodded with my tongue until I felt her spasm. Before the last wave crested, I flipped her on to her stomach, then took her from behind. Before long, she came again with me inside her. It felt so good that I followed shortly thereafter. I collapsed on top of her as we basked in the orgasm afterglow. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She lifted herself up on one elbow to look over her shoulder at me, smiled, and kissed me. Then she reached over to her handbag and pulled out a compact. She opened it up and held it so I could see myself in the mirror. My brown eyes had lightened to cougar gold. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I called in sick, and we spent most of the day clearing salt cedar. By the end of the day, I felt like I was holding a live wire or something. I heard a flutter behind me, and by reflex turned to look. My eye was immediately caught by the motion of a sparrow flying overhead. After it passed, I smelled its scent wafting down. All day, I was being distracted by the local wildlife. All the time I had helped her on her ranch, I had never noticed how much of it there was. Now, every rustle, every scent on the breeze, every glimpse of motion caught my attention. Late in the afternoon, we spooked a rabbit, and I almost started chasing it. Ashley laughed, put her arms around me and said “I’ve done that, too. Come on, it’s almost time.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the sun getting low in the sky, she led me to a secluded clearing near the creek. We undressed each other, then sat down to wait. The setting sun made everything glow, including her body. Her scent filled my nostrils. I reached for her. She put her arms around me, gave me a hug, and said, “Not now. Later, I promise.” She was still holding me as the nervous tension inside me jumped in a sudden crescendo. I looked up, and saw the moon rising over the hill across the valley. “It’s okay, baby. I’m here with you. I’ll be with you.” She kept murmuring reassurances in my ear. It started in my groin where she had - is infected the right word? - well, infected me. My cock and balls retreated backwards between my legs. My cock was slowly being enveloped by a sheath. As I watched, the tip disappeared inside it. Next to change were my fingertips. I felt pressure inside them. My fingernails grew thicker and longer and hooked into wickedly sharp claws. Then I felt the same thing in my toes. My toenails became claws, then my toes bent upwards as my foot bones lengthened. Then, I felt the same pressure in my jaws. First, my canines expanded in girth and length. I ran my tongue over my new fangs. The pressure grew to fill my lower face. I felt my jaws extending forward, pushed out by the pressure within. My nose broadened and suddenly, I was overwhelmed by the scents surrounding me. I focused on Ashley’s scent. Her odor, her words whispered in my ears, her arms around me kept me grounded, sane, as my ears were dragged backwards and upwards through my skull. I became aware of pressure in my chest. It grew until it felt like my breastbone was being pulled away from my spine, and my ribs were being crushed in from side to side. With a wrenching, painful crack, my ribs rearranged themselves into the ovoid shape of the felid torso. My arms drooped and I panicked a bit until I recalled that the front legs of felids are not attached to the rest of the skeleton. I felt the muscles in my shoulders rearrange themselves to support my arms, which were rapidly becoming forelegs. My skin itched intolerably for what felt like an eternity. I looked down, and saw tawny fur growing. Soon, it covered my body. Then, with a sensation somewhere between a full-body toothache and a mind-blowing, toe-curling orgasm, the rest of my body followed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You know the feeling of release when the last item of clothing comes off, and you&#039;re finally fully naked for the first time with a new lover? That&#039;s what it felt like. I felt free. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It’s hard to describe what happened after that. It’s not that I don’t remember what happened. I can’t find the words to describe it. My best guess is, as the changes penetrated into my brain, I lost the use of language. Ashley’s murmured reassurances became a buzz. This scared me more than anything else had. Was I losing my identity, the memories and skills and experiences that made me who I am? Until then, I could think of myself as a human in a cougar body. Now I was losing that, too,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I panicked and tried to run, but my four legs betrayed me. I couldn’t coordinate them, and fell painfully on my snout. Ashley let me go, and got down on her hands and knees. She shifted into a cougar herself. It was the first time I got to watch her shift since that night four weeks before. I had been a bit distracted then. I was amazed by how fluid it looked, compared to how it felt when I changed. After I regained my feet, she led me into the bushes. I stumbled at first, but soon walking on four legs seemed natural. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the night prowling her ranch,. She taught me how to walk, run, pounce, and climb on four legs instead of two, how to use night vision, smell and hearing to navigate instead of stumbling around in the dark. Towards dawn, she brought down a yearling buck, and I tasted hot blood for the first time. It was wonderful. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then she led me back to the clearing by the creek where we had first changed. We made love in the dawn sunlight as we regained our humanity. Over the summer, she taught me how to be a cougar, without losing my identity in the cougar mind. Just as I will teach you.”&lt;br /&gt;

		<summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;Triskelelynx: &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Shay was sprawled on the grass of a woodland clearing, naked except for her boots and covered with blood. She had been hiking in the Rocky Mountains, when she had been assaulted by three men. She gave a good fight, landing some solid blows, but in the end had been overcome. As the other two pinned her to the ground, the leader cut off her clothing. Now, at least two of them were dead. The leader&#039;s corpse lay across her legs, decapitated by something too fast and too vast for her fear- and adrenalin-soaked brain to comprehend. One of his henchmen hung halfway up a tall fir tree, with a broken branch protruding from his throat. She didn&#039;t know what happened to the other one, but by the sound of his scream as he disappeared, she didn&#039;t really want to.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All she had was an impression of vast wings, and teeth as long as the the headless man&#039;s hunting knife.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was the third day of her vacation. Two weeks in the woods to restore her soul before she had to go back and deal with the irate customers and her supervisor&#039;s cutting sarcasm. Being assaulted and nearly gang-raped didn&#039;t exactly restore her faith in humanity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something large and dark flashed in the corner of her vision. A rush of air and a booming of large wings in the clearing behind her made her turn around.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It took a few seconds for her brain to process what her eyes were seeing. Wings as large as her uncle&#039;s Cessna attached to a body similar in proportion. A long neck like a greyhound&#039;s supported a lizard-like head. And, yet, despite it&#039;s size, it exuded a predator&#039;s lethal grace, much like the orcas she had seen the previous summer. It even had similar coloring, dark grey above, and pale below.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Do not be afraid&#039;&#039; The words seem to echo inside her skull. She shook her head.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Two golden volleyball-sized eyes regarded her through slit pupils. Below them was a long snout. It was closed, but Shay was sure the teeth were in proportion to the claws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;I won&#039;t hurt you. Do not be afraid.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Wh-wha ...&amp;quot; she stammerred. &amp;quot;You - you&#039;re a ...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;A dragon, yes. But you do not need to be afraid. I will not hurt you.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shay sat, stunned, wondering if she should grab the dead man&#039;s knife. Not that it would do much good against such a large predator.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Apologies for the mess. There is a stream at the bottom of the hill, if you wish to clean yourself. After that, you are free to go. Or stay, for that matter. I&#039;d welcome someone to converse with. All I ask is your word not to reveal my existence.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Glad of the excuse to get away, Shay scrambled down the ravine and washed the blood off her as best she could with the frigid water. She thought about making a break for it, using the ravine and overhanging trees to escape. Her pack was still up in the clearing with the dragon. Could she survive, without food, clothing or shelter? Even in summer, the mountain nights could be frigid.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She scrambled up to the clearing. The dragon was still there, waiting. &amp;quot;Um, okay, I promise not to tell anyone you exist, unless you are going to hurt me, my family, or friends.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Acceptable. In return, I will not hurt you or your kin, except in defense of myself, or of one whom I deem worthy and needful of defense.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shay retrieved her pack, then looked at her rescuer. &amp;quot;I had always thought dragons were a myth,&amp;quot; she said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Centuries ago, we retreated deep into the wild lands, to avoid your kind, to survive. As far as I know, I am the last.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You must be lonely!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;I am.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Promise you won&#039;t eat me?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;By the shards of my mother&#039;s egg, I do so vow.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Then I&#039;ll stay with you tonight. I&#039;ll need shelter anyway. It looks like my tent is ruined.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;You are welcome to share my cave.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They walked back to his den. Shay didn&#039;t bother getting new clothes out of her pack, enjoying the feel of the warm sun and cool air on her skin. They talked long into the night. It had been a long time since Shay had conversed with someone as intelligent and articulate. By the light of the setting moon, she unpacked her bedroll and curled up to sleep, feeling safe and protected by her fierce companion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She awoke to birdsong, looked out cave, and realized it was already late morning. The dragon was apparently asleep. It wasn&#039;t really surprising, since many animals with slit pupils are nocturnal.  She lay still for a time, wondering if she should take this opportunity to leave. The dragon had given his word not to harm her, but could she trust it? It was bad enough knowing if she could trust someone from her own culture, let alone a different species. If different human cultures had different ethics and norms of behavior, how could she know whether to trust a dragon?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her stomach growled, so she decided she&#039;d think better with something in her stomach. She stretched, crawled out of her sleeping bag, and went through her pack. Luckily, her little alcohol stove was undamaged. A few minutes later, she broke her fast with some oatmeal and tea. She considered her options while looking at the sleeping hulk. Part of her thought she should leave. Just go home and spend the rest of her time off there. Another part wanted to hike back to her Jeep, find some place to replace her tent, and find a different back country area to explore.&lt;br /&gt;
And yet, she found she wasn&#039;t sure she wanted to leave. How often do you get a chance like this? Apparently, she was the first person to have talked to a dragon in at least a century. Could she just walk away?&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

		<summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;Triskelelynx: Second draft. Ready to go, I hope!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;It was her boots that caught his eye. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She wore a flirty yellow mini dress and Army-regulation tanker boots. Rather than laces or zippers, they were closed by a long strap of leather that spiraled from her ankle, around her calf up to a buckle near the top.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Tanker boots had a special significance to Jacob. In Kuwait during the first Gulf War, frustration with an especially ill-fitting pair led him to discover his ability to manipulate leather with his thoughts. Jacob was a leathermancer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was the first really nice day of spring, in an lakefront park. It had been a typical winter upstate NY winter, long, cold and gray. So, on the first warm, sunny day, Jacob and seemingly everyone else in town went to the park. No one paid any attention to the older-seeming gent behind the salt, pepper and cayenne beard, glasses, and Greek fisherman&#039;s cap, as he pretended to read the paper on the bench.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He was really using his power and playing with other people&#039;s leather. The guy in the suit&#039;s new oxfords were pinching, so Jacob made them a little softer. The kid in the leather hi-tops would have blisters by the end of the day, so he made them fit better. He fixed the rip in the biker&#039;s chaps. He was limited by physics - he couldn&#039;t create leather with his mind, or destroy it, but he could change its shape and texture. He could also work other materials, but leather was always easiest for him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then he saw the girl in the tanker boots. She was a medium height brunette, average in looks, and maybe 25 or so in age. Then she looked at something behind Jacob, and he was captivated by the vivid ocean-blue eyes framed by her dark wavy hair. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Jacob decided he had to do something special for her. Luckily, her Army-issue boots gave him plenty of leather to work with. Most women&#039;s boots are made of thin flimsy leather that gave him few options.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He decided to fix the rubber sole first, since it would take more of his energy. He stared at the low, blocky combat boot heels, and pictured a tapered three-inchers instead. Then, he reached into the back of his brain, gathered up some energy, and willed the heels of her boots to look like the picture in his mind&#039;s eye.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The woman let out a little squeak as she was suddenly lifted two inches higher. Jacob smiled behind his paper, and started the next step. He mentally grabbed the tops of her boots and pulled them up. When he stopped, her legs were wrapped in perfectly fitting, soft black calfskin leather from toe to the hem of her dress. The spiral strap wrapped around, making the leather conform to her every curve. She yelped, and looked around wildly, as if making sure no one saw what just happened.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Jacob buried his eyes in his paper, glancing up after a minute to gauge her reaction. She was looking down, prancing around a little bit, plainly admiring his work. He was confused by her reaction. Most people either freak when confronted with power, or try to ignore it. He was glad she liked her new boots, but they didn&#039;t quite look like he had pictured them. Jacob decided to try something he had never done before.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He reached out with his mind, grabbed some of the extra weight she carried around her waist, mentally divided it into four pieces, and pulled them down. She screeched in pain, then clamped her mouth shut and grabbed onto a light pole for balance. He hadn&#039;t thought it would hurt her, but one started, he had to finish it. He pulled the adipose tissues down until they were where he wanted them, just above and below her knees. By converted the mass to muscle and bone, he made her legs now about three inches longer, and her waist noticeably thinner. Yes, that was the look he was going for! Encouraged, he took two smaller masses of tissue, and this time dragged them upwards. He didn&#039;t make her small breasts much larger, just rounder and firmer, and added connective tissue to keep them that way through the years. Then, with a light touch, he toned and firmed her body, adding strength, yet leaving enough softness to keep her curves. With the last of his power, he tailored her dress to fit her perfectly. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He slumped on his bench, exhausted. She gasped, livid with rage. She looked around as if trying to figure out who had done this to her. She stumbled the first few steps, unsure on her new legs, then ran off with the grace of a gazelle despite the heeled boots. He watched her until her could no longer see her, then folded his paper and walked home.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A few weeks later, he was on his bench again, pretending to read the paper and playing with other people&#039;s leather. A harried mother was attempting to herd four whining kids towards the park exit. The narrow strap of her heavy purse was cutting into her shoulder, so he reached out with his power and widened it. He couldn&#039;t do anything about the kids, but he could remove one source of irritation from her day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He got up, folded his paper, and turned to walk home, only to find his way blocked by the young woman he had transformed back in the spring.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She was wearing the thigh high tanker boots over snug white jeans, with a dark blue shirt that perfectly matched her eyes. Most off-the-rack clothing was to snug here, or too loose there, but her jeans and top looked like they were custom made to her exact fit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Whatever happens next,&amp;quot; she said, &amp;quot;I wanted to thank you for the boots.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;How did you know it was me? What do you mean, what happens next?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I&#039;m a witch. One of a circle of witches. Once we knew to look, my sisters and I found traces of your work all over town. Still, I wish you had stopped with the boots. I mean, I like looking like this, but...&amp;quot; She trailed off as another woman walked up next to her. A Nordic beauty, she had hair like sunlight and eyes like the sky. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We&#039;ve learned a lot from examining your work,&amp;quot; said the blonde, but you should have stuck to being a magical cobbler.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A rich, throaty voice said behind him. &amp;quot;Magic must never be used on another person without their consent, except in self-defense or defense of another. This law may not be broken without going unpunished.&amp;quot; He turned around to see a woman with skin like sunshine on mahogany, standing tall and proud and slender, like a Swahili princess. Incongruously, he remembered a college professor saying the Swahili Kingdom was exchanging ambassadors with the Chinese Empire while Europe was mired in the Dark Ages. He was being surrounded by women, all of them gorgeous, and all deadly serious.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The last one to arrive had a smooth, young face, but silver-white hair and traces of crow&#039;s feet and laugh lines revealed that she was older than her looks. She said, &amp;quot;We are the sisters of the Cayuga Lake Circle of Witches.&amp;quot; She had accent he couldn&#039;t place. Eastern European, he thought. &amp;quot;Had you not used magic on our sister, we would have wanted to teach and learn what we may from you. Now that choice is taken from us. Your life is forfeit to the Goddess. What she will do with it, I do not know. Pray she is merciful!&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She raised her arms and gestured.  He felt a surge of power from all around him. The witches were passing their energy to their priestess. The priestess guided the combined flows of eleven witches at him, plus her own. It blasted past his feeble shielding attempt, and struck him full on the chest. He was surrounded, trapped by its power. He tried to scream, but his vocal chords were paralyzed. He tried to run, but fell first to his knees, then onto all fours.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The power gathered at the crown of his head and went downwards, remolding his skull as it went. He could feel it forcing him into a new shape, as he did with leather, as he had to the stormy-eyed girl. He hoped he would not be too hideous. The power crept downwards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He felt his eyeballs sag as his facial bones shifted, then they grew to fill the larger voids in his skull. His teeth fell out. They lay on the ground in front of him, with their old silver fillings. Smaller ones grew back in their place. They fit his smaller jaws. Still, the power crept downward. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
His shoulders, once the broad, powerful shoulders of a soldier but diminished by age, grew narrower still. His ribcage followed it, popping and creaking as the bones found their new places. Still, the power crept downward.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He could see it now changing his arms, smoothing away the roughness of age. His gray arm hairs fell out and were replaced with downy red-gold ones. His chest felt odd, weighty, sort of like the pecs he had in his Army years, but very different. He looked down between his arms, and saw soft, rounded shapes growing there, hanging downwards. He realized what the Goddess&#039;s punishment was. She was taking his life, and giving him a new one. Still, the power crept downwards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He felt abdominal his organs shift as his waist contracted and his hips swelled outwards. A mass of curly red hair, the color of his in his youth, spilled down around his neck, and blocked his view of what was happening below. He lacked the strength to lift a hand to move it, and was glad of it. Still, the power crept downwards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He almost vomited when it reached his crotch. His testicles were forced up into his abdomen, squeezed through openings smaller than they were. He fell down to lie on the cool grass, racked with pain-induced nausea. Between dry heaves, he could feel his aching balls move up through his abdomen to take positions a few inches below and to either side of his navel. The pain was so intense, he didn&#039;t feel other changes down there. And still the power crept downwards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She felt her legs shift, her feet shrink, and then it was over. Where a middle aged man had stood, a young woman lay, breath heaving. She slowly becoming aware of the little things. The feeling of her arm pressing on her breasts. The way her legs felt, lying close together without squeezing the boys. The tightness of her men&#039;s pants around her hips, and the bagginess of her t-shirt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She rolled over into a sitting position, and a small Asian woman, elegant and poised, said, &amp;quot;Let me help you with that.&amp;quot; With a surge of power, she reshaped Jacob&#039;s worn, poorly fitted men&#039;s clothing into new woman&#039;s wear, even remembering to flip the fly and button of her jeans onto the other side. Her t-shirt was now a knit cami top, and chunky, high-heeled Red Wing work boots came up to just below her knees. &amp;quot;Oh, I almost forgot!&amp;quot; she said, and Jacob&#039;s briefs rearranged themselves into panties.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Desperate for some vestige of her former life, she reached into her back pocket and fumbled for her wallet. On her license, a young woman named Jackie stared back at her. She looked a lot like Jacob&#039;s sister had at that age. Her date of birth was January, 1991, when Jacob had been in Kuwait.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The priestess said, &amp;quot;Sisters, we have been, in number, twelve. One short of a coven. Help her to her feet. It is the Summer Solstice, and we have a new sister to initiate tonight.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;It was her boots that caught his eye. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She wore a flirty sundress and Army-regulation tanker boots. Rather than laces or zippers, they were closed by a long strap of leather that spiraled around her calf up to a buckle near the top.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Tanker boots had a special significance to Jacob. In Kuwait during the first Gulf War, frustration with an especially ill-fitting pair led him to discover his ability to manipulate leather with his thoughts. Jacob was a leathermancer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was the first really nice day of spring, in an upstate NY lakefront park. As usual, winter had been long, cold and gray.  So, on the first warm, sunny day, Jacob and seemingly everyone else went to the park. No one paid any attention to the older-seeming gent behind the salt, pepper and cayenne beard, glasses, and Greek fisherman&#039;s cap, as he pretended to read the paper on the bench.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What he was really doing was playing with other people&#039;s leather. The guy in the suit&#039;s new oxfords were pinching, so Jacob made them a little softer. The kid in the leather hi-tops would have blisters by the end of the day, so he made them fit better. He was limited by physics - he couldn&#039;t make leather with his mind, or destroy it, but he could change its shape and texture. He could also work other materials, but leather was always easiest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then he saw the girl in the tanker boots. She was a medium height brunette, average in looks, and maybe 25 or so in age. Then she looked at something behind Jacob, and he was entranced by the vivid ocean-blue eyes framed by her dark wavy hair. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Jacob decided he had to do something special for her. Luckily, her Army-issue boots gave him plenty of leather to work with. Most women&#039;s boots are made of thin flimsy leather that gave him few options.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He decided to fix the rubber sole first, since it would take more of his energy. He stared at the low, blocky heels, and pictured a tapered three-inchers instead. Then, he reached into the back of his brain, gathered up some energy, and willed the heels of her boots to look like the picture in his mind&#039;s eye.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The woman let out a little squeak as she was suddenly lifted two inches higher. Jacob smiled behind his paper, and started the next step. He grabbed the tops of her boots with his mind, and pulled them up. When he stopped, her legs were wrapped in perfectly fitting, soft black calfskin leather from toe to mid thigh. The spiral strap wrapped around, making the leather conform to her every curve. She yelped, and looked around wildly, as if making sure no one saw what just happened.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Jacob buried his eyes in his paper, glancing up after a minute to guage her reaction. She was looking down, prancing around a little bit, plainly admiring his work. She should be freaking. Boots don&#039;t just change by themselves! A bit miffed that his practical joke had not worked the way he hoped, Jacob decided to try something he had never done before.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He reached out with his mind, grabbed some of the extra weight she carried around her waist, mentally divided it into four pieces, and pulled it down. She started to screech in pain, then clamped her mouth shut and grabbed onto a light pole for balance. He continued to pull the adipose tissue down until they were where he wanted them, then converted their mass to muscle and bone. Her legs were now about three inches longer, and her waist noticably thinner. He took a little more tissue, and this time dragged it upwards. He didn&#039;t make her small breasts much larger, just rounder and firmer, and added enough connective tissue to keep them that way through the years. Then, with a light touch, he toned and firmed her body, adding strength, yet leaving enough softness to keep her curves. With the last of his power, he tailored her dress to fit her perfectly. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He slumped on his bench as she ran towards the parking lot. She stumbled the first few steps, unsure on her new legs, then ran with the grace of a gazelle despite the heels. He watched her until her could no longer see her, then folded his paper and walked home.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A few weeks later, he was back on his bench, pretending to read the paper and playing with other people&#039;s leather. A harried mother was attempting to herd four whining kids towards the park exit. The narrow strap of her heavy purse was cutting into her shoulder, so he reached out with his power and widened it. He couldn&#039;t do anything about the kids, but he could remove one source of irritation from her day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He got up, folded his paper, and turned to walk home, only to find his way blocked by an attractive young woman -  the one he had changed back in the spring.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She was wearing the thigh high tanker boots over snug white jeans, with a dark blue shirt that perfectly matched her eyes. Most off-the-rack clothing was to snug here, or too loose there, but her jeans and top looked like they were custom made to her measurements.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I wanted to thank you for the boots,&amp;quot; she said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;How did you know it was me?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I&#039;m a witch. Once we knew to look, my sisters and I found traces of your work all over town. Still, I wish you had stopped with the boots. I mean, I like looking like this, but...&amp;quot; She &lt;br /&gt;
trailed off as another woman walked up next to her. A Nordic beauty, she had hair like sunlight and eyes like the sky. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;We&#039;ve learned a lot from examining your work,&amp;quot; said the blonde, but you should have stuck to being a magical cobbler.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A rich, throaty voice said behind him. &amp;quot;Magic must never be used on another person without their consent, except in cases of self-defense or defense of another. This law may not be broken without going unpunished.&amp;quot; He turned around to see a woman with skin like sunshine on mahogany, standing tall and proud like a Nubian princess. He looked around, and saw that he was being surrounded by women, all of them gorgeous, and all deadly serious.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The last one to arrive had white hair and a young face. Traces of crow&#039;s feet and laugh lines were the only indications of her age. She said, &amp;quot;We are the sisters of the Cayuga Lake Circle of Witches. We are, in number, twelve. We are one sister short of a coven.&amp;quot; She had accent he couldn&#039;t place. European, he thought.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Had you not used magic on our sister, we probably would have befriended you, to teach and learn what we may from you. Now that choice is taken from us. Your life is forfeit to the Goddess! What she will do with it, I do not know. Pray she is merciful!&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With that, he felt a surge of power from all around him. The witches were passing their energy to their priestess. He had never considered the possibility of other magic users, and had never given any thought to magical defenses. The priestess guided the combined flows of eleven witches plus her own at him. It brushed past his feeble shielding attempt like it was tissue paper, and struck him full on the chest. He was surrounded, trapped by its power. He tried to scream, but his vocal chords were instantly paralyzed. He tried to run, but fell first to his knees, then onto all fours.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The power gathered at the crown of his skull and went downwards, remolding it as it went. He could feel it forcing him into a new shape, as he did with leather, as he had to the stormy-eyed girl.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He felt his eyeballs sag as his facial bones shifted, then they grew to fill the larger voids in his skull. His teeth fell out. He could see them, with their old silver fillings lying on the ground in front of him. Smaller ones grew back in their place. Still, the power crept downward. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
His shoulders, once the broad, powerful shoulders of a soldier but diminished by age, grew narrower still. His ribcage followed it, popping and creaking as the bones found their new places. Still, the power crept downward.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He could see it now changing his arms, smoothing away the roughness of age. His gray arm hairs fell out and were replaced with fine downy ones. His chest felt odd, weighty, almost like the pecs he had in his Army years, but not. He looked down between his arms, and saw soft, rounded shapes growing there, hanging downwards. He realized what the Goddess&#039;s punishment was. She was taking his life, and giving him a new one. Still, the power crept downwards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He felt abdominal his organs shift as his waist contracted and his hips swelled outwards. A mass of red hair, the color of his in his youth, spilled down around his neck, and he lost sight of what was going on. Still, the power crept downwards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He almost vomited when it reached his crotch. His testicles were being drawn up into his abdomen, squeezing through openings smaller than they were. He fell the rest of the way to the cool grass, nauseated from the pain. He could feel them move up through his abdomen to take positions a few inches below and to either side of his navel. Due to the pain, he hadn&#039;t feel the other changes down there. And still the power crept downwards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She felt his legs shift, his feet shrink, and then it was over. Where a middle aged man had stood, a young woman lay, breath heaving. She slowly becoming aware of the little things. The feeling of her arm pressing on her breasts. The way her legs felt, lying close together without squeezing the boys. The tightness of her men&#039;s pants around her hips, and the bagginess of her t-shirt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She rolled over into a sitting position, and a small Asian woman, radiating elegance, said, &amp;quot;Let me help you with that.&amp;quot; With a surge of power, she reshaped Jacob&#039;s worn, poorly fitted men&#039;s clothing into new woman&#039;s wear, even remembering to flip the fly and button of her jeans onto the other side. There was no denying she was braless under her knit cami top, and chunky heeled Red Wing work boots came up to just below her knees. &amp;quot;Oh, I almost forgot!&amp;quot; she said, and Jacob&#039;s briefs rearranged themselves into panties.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Hi. I created an account some months back under the name &amp;quot;Triskelynx,&amp;quot; and submitted a story, but now I can&#039;t find it. Anyway: here&#039;s a sequel to it:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Old Time Religion 2: Lord of the Forest]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:It was probably lost in the great crash. Sorry for the loss, but there is nothing we can do - the hard drives themselves went belly-up and we were unable to recover the data - as the best backups were stored in that non-mirrored, linear raid array, we had to use a second-best. Which was several years old. We&#039;ve now got a much better backup system running and if we happen to have another crash like that we won&#039;t lose more than a weeks worth of information. -- [[User:ShadowWolf|ShadowWolf]] 02:42, 3 December 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is a story I posted on TF-Media:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Shay was sprawled on the grass of a woodland clearing, naked except for her boots and covered with blood. She had been hiking in the Rocky Mountains, when she had been assaulted by three men. She gave a good fight, landing some solid blows, but in the end had been overcome. As the other two pinned her to the ground, the leader cut off her clothing. Now, at least two of them were dead. The leader&#039;s corpse lay across her legs, decapitated by something too fast and too vast for her fear- and adrenalin-soaked brain to comprehend. One of his henchmen hung halfway up a tall fir tree, with a broken branch protruding from his throat. She didn&#039;t know what happened to the other one, but by the sound of his scream as he disappeared, she didn&#039;t really want to.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All she had was an impression of vast wings, and teeth as long as the the headless man&#039;s hunting knife.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was the third day of her vacation. Two weeks in the woods to restore her soul before she had to go back and deal with the irate customers and her supervisor&#039;s cutting sarcasm. Being assaulted and nearly gang-raped didn&#039;t exactly restore her faith in humanity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something large and dark flashed in the corner of her vision. A rush of air and a booming of large wings in the clearing behind her made her turn around.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It took a few seconds for her brain to process what her eyes were seeing. Wings as large as her uncle&#039;s Cessna attached to a body similar in proportion. A long neck like a greyhound&#039;s supported a lizard-like head. And, yet, despite it&#039;s size, it exuded a predator&#039;s lethal grace, much like the orcas she had seen the previous summer. It even had similar coloring, dark grey above, and pale below.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Do not be afraid&#039;&#039; The words seem to echo inside her skull. She shook her head.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Two golden volleyball-sized eyes regarded her through slit pupils. Below them was a long snout. It was closed, but Shay was sure the teeth were in proportion to the claws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;I won&#039;t hurt you. Do not be afraid.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Wh-wha ...&amp;quot; she stammerred. &amp;quot;You - you&#039;re a ...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;A dragon, yes. But you do not need to be afraid. I will not hurt you.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shay sat, stunned, wondering if she should grab the dead man&#039;s knife. Not that it would do much good against such a large predator.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Apologies for the mess. There is a stream at the bottom of the hill, if you wish to clean yourself. After that, you are free to go. Or stay, for that matter. I&#039;d welcome someone to converse with. All I ask is your word not to reveal my existence.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Glad of the excuse to get away, Shay scrambled down the ravine and washed the blood off her as best she could with the frigid water. She thought about making a break for it, using the ravine and overhanging trees to escape. Her pack was still up in the clearing with the dragon. Could she survive, without food, clothing or shelter? Even in summer, the mountain nights could be frigid.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She scrambled up to the clearing. The dragon was still there, waiting. &amp;quot;Um, okay, I promise not to tell anyone you exist, unless you are going to hurt me, my family, or friends.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Acceptable, I will not hurt you or your kin, except in defense of myself, or of one whom I deem worthy and needful of defense.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shay retrieved her pack, then looked at her rescuer. &amp;quot;I had always thought dragons were a myth,&amp;quot; she said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Centuries ago, we retreated deep into the wild lands, to avoid your kind, to survive. As far as I know, I am the last.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You must be lonely!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;I am.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Promise you won&#039;t eat me?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;By the shards of my mother&#039;s egg, I do so vow.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Then I&#039;ll stay with you tonight. I&#039;ll need shelter anyway. It looks like my tent is ruined.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;You are welcome to share my cave.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They walked back to his den. Shay didn&#039;t bother getting new clothes out of her pack, enjoying the feel of the warn sun and cool air on her skin. They conversed long into the night, and Shay realized that the dragon was as intelligent and articulate as any human she had known. By the light of the setting moon, she unpacked her bedroll and curled up to sleep, feeling safe and protected by her fierce companion.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;As Shay walked through the pines, the tense knot in between her shoulder blades slowly began to unwind. The last few weeks of work were hell. If customers weren&#039;t demanding the impossible, her supervisor was lashing out with sarcastic criticism. Still, all that was 200 miles away, and two weeks in the woods would hopefully restore her soul.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She was crossing a hilltop clearing, reveling in the feel of the sun on her shoulders, when a large, scruffy man stepped out from behind a tree, holding a large hunting knife. She instantly lashed out and kicked the knife out of his hand, and followed up with another to the face. The scruffy man when sprawling. She was grabbed from behind and slammed to the ground. Two other men pinned her to the ground. Even with black belts in two martial arts, she couldn&#039;t wriggle free or land a blow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;That&#039;s gonna cost ya!&amp;quot; said the scruffy man as he recovered his knife. He cut her shirt off, followed by her bra, then went to work on her jean shorts. Soon she was naked except for her hiking boots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something large and dark flashed in the corner of her vision. Scruffy started fumbling with his belt, when the shadow returned. This time, it went directly overhead. Shay had a sense of immense  wings and teeth, and it was gone. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So was Scruffy&#039;s head. His blood spurted all over her and the other two men. She got a hand free, and slammed a fist into the side of a knee. The knee&#039;s owner  screamed and collapsed. The flash returned, and the other disappeared. A few seconds later, his body tumbled out of a tall douglas fir, with several branches protruding from his torso.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Behind her, the man with the sprained knee screamed, then the scream was cut off with a crunching sound she recognized from a dojo accident - the sound of ribs breaking. She turned around to find a huge clawed foot grinding him into the the ground. Each claw was the size of her hand.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;div&gt;Hi. I created an account some months back under the name &amp;quot;Triskelynx,&amp;quot; and submitted a story, but now I can&#039;t find it. Anyway: here&#039;s a sequel to it:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Old Time Religion 2: Lord of the Forest]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:It was probably lost in the great crash. Sorry for the loss, but there is nothing we can do - the hard drives themselves went belly-up and we were unable to recover the data - as the best backups were stored in that non-mirrored, linear raid array, we had to use a second-best. Which was several years old. We&#039;ve now got a much better backup system running and if we happen to have another crash like that we won&#039;t lose more than a weeks worth of information. -- [[User:ShadowWolf|ShadowWolf]] 02:42, 3 December 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;Author&#039;s note: This is a sequel to a story that got lost in the crash. I&#039;ll have to recreate it at some point.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the missing story, a pair of college students went to see a movie. Instead, they met Aphrodite, who offered one of them a gift. He asked for better understanding of women, and was changed into one for a semester. Then she turned to the other, and said she&#039;d give him a boon as well, but someone else had plans for him. This is his story.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There is a love scene in this story. I tried to make it serve the plot, and tried to keep it in the realm of erotica rather than porn. I hope you&#039;ll think I succeeded.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d appreciate any constructive advice anyone might want to offer.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
--[[User:Triskelelynx|Triskelelynx]] 07:55, 7 January 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
----&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Let us worship like the druids,&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;And drink fermented fluids,&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;And naked through the woo-ids.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;It&#039;s good enough for me!&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My girlfriend Jess and I were standing on a hillside on the edges of the Texas Hill Country. It was May first - Beltaine - a warm spring night, and we were skyclad, or naked. In front of us was a large flat-topped boulder with an embroidered altar cloth on it.  On the wine-colored cloth was a chalice, a knife and several candles. Jess was calling her Goddess as we started the ceremony. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Until a few months ago, I had been somewhat amused by Jess&#039;s choice of belief. Then I met the goddess Aphrodite and had watched her change my roommate into a girl. Since then, I have become a believer in magic. My roommate, Tom, now Tommie, had used some of the insights he, er, she had gained to hook me up with Jess. And that&#039;s how I ended up standing naked on a hillside, taking part in a neo-pagan ritual.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I listened as she finished her invocation and lit the Goddess candle. It was my turn to call the male half of the divinity. I began, rather nervously, to say the words I had rehearsed seveal times in my mind. Aphrodite had said that some other deity had plans for me. I  was sure that invoking a deity was asking for trouble. Still, I loved Jess, and she wanted me to be here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I mumbled something about the Lord of the Forest, Stag-king, Cernunnos, protector and father, asking him to join us and lend his power to our rite. I struck a match and lit the God&#039;s candle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Immediately, a surge of heat seared into my feet from the sandy soil. I tried to pick them up but could not. The heat traveled up my legs, and cramps in my calves and feet forced me onto my toes. Bones in my feet grated against each other. I looked down, and three of the toes on each feet were receding upwards. The other two were changing, darkening, hardening. It took me a few minutes to realize they were becoming hooves. Cloven deer hooves. I watched in horrified fascination as my feet grew longer, and the heat reshaped my ankles into hocks. Brown hair sprouted on my legs as they cramped and cracked. My shins shortened, and my thighs became powerful haunches. The heat traveled up my body until I felt like I was completely engulfed in flame.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At last, the burning stopped. From the waist down, I was a male elk. Above that, I was a man, a fit, muscular man, except for the impressive rack of antlers on my head.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An owl flew overhead, and I could feel its thoughts, focused on a mouse in the bushes on the other side of the clearing. I realized that I could feel all the life around me - all the birds and animals, down to the invertebrates scurrying across the ground and burrowing beneath it. I could even feel the web of life sustained by the microbes in soil, plants and air. I stood still, marveling and dumbfounded by the intricacy of the pulsating, constantly changing interplay of life energies that surrounded us.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I threw back my head, and bugled the challenge of the stag elk whose antlers and hooves I wore. The coyotes on the hillside stopped their hunt and added their song to mine, as did the white tail deer in the valley thickets below us. A stallion on the ranch over the hill knelt to me. Even the military dogs on the Army camp on the horizon yelped and howled, confusing and alarming their handlers. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I was the Lord of the Forest, and I was magnificent. From horizon to horizon, every creature with enough intelligence enough to do so signaled its obeisance to me. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All creatures save one. Jess. She stood facing me, with a small smile, lips slightly parted, and a look in her eyes that said she knew just what to do with an uppity male. She stepped forward and ran one hand up over my muscled chest, barely touching the skin. With her other hand, she reached up, grasped an antler, and pulled my face down to meet hers. Our lips touched, open mouthed, and her tongue lightly ran over mine. She held my mouth to hers with a hand on the back of my neck, as her other ran down and massaged the elk bull&#039;s sheath between my legs. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We made love on our altar. Her fair skin glowed gold and white in the moonlight and candlelight. Her head was haloed by the pentacle embroidered on the altar cloth. She was every bit the Goddess to my God. I tried to be gentle, conscious of the size of my elk parts. She took me with a force that surprised me. A small part of my brain rebelled. After all, the head of my cock should be somewhere around her sternum. Then the rest of my brain said shut up, it&#039;s magic, and it need not follow the laws of the everyday world. We moaned loudly together as her orgasm brought me over the top. I lay down next to her, gathered her to me, and pulled the altar cloth over us as a blanket.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I woke up the next morning to a cloudy sunrise. The memory of last night&#039;s events came to me in a rush - the wonder of the magnitude and glory of the life surrounding us, and the sacred sex that followed. I grabbed my legs, unsure whether I hoped to feel human skin or elk hair.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I felt skin. It came with a deep sense of loss, mingled with relief. Then I realized my leg felt odd. Hard. Firm. I lifted up the altar cloth we were using. Instead of the scrawny body I had arrived with, I was toned and muscular.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A bluebird flew over us. I realized I had known it was going to before I saw or heard it. I didn&#039;t have the square mile awareness that I did last night, but I still had some of it. The same sense that told me about the bluebird told me that Jess was starting to wake up. She too had been blessed. Her body was toned and strong, yet quintessentially feminine. I woke her up with a kiss. We made love again as a soft, warm rain fell. After we finished, she reached up above my head, and handed me a perfect elk antler.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We completed our ritual and packed up our altar cloth and other implements. Then Jess and I gently dressed each other as we had undressed each other the night before. As we drove back to the Murchison U. campus, I wondered how to tell my dad I would not major in business like he wanted. Instead, I was going to major in ecology and minor in ancient religions. He wouldn&#039;t like it, but somehow I knew the entity that had possessed me the night before wanted it that way.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;By [[User_talk:Triskelelynx|Triskelelynx]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No matter how many times I checked my math, the answer came out the same. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I had flunked my Calculus II mid-term exam so badly that, even if I got straight 100s for the rest of the semester, my final grade would not be high enough to keep my scholarship. Without it, there was no way my family could pay my tuition at a private liberal arts college like Murchison U.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My roommate heard me groan, and asked what was wrong. I explained, and he let out a low whistle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;That’s a serious bummer!” he said. “What are you going to do?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Transfer to State, I guess.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Damn. You‘ve been a good roommate.” He went back to studying, then a few minutes later said, “You need a cougar.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A what?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A cougar. A rich woman to pay your bills. The female equivalent of a sugar daddy.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Oh, stop it!&amp;quot; I yelled, &amp;quot;You want me to prostitute myself to pay for college? That&#039;s just wrong! And besides, how the heck could I attract a woman like that?” I was after all, a scrawny, somewhat nerdy engineering major.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He just smiled and went back to his reading, A few days later, he flashed me a big grin and showed me an ad on Craigslist. “Cougar wanted,” it said. “Nice but shy SWM, NS, college student seeks sugar mommy for …” I didn’t bother reading the rest. &amp;quot;Come one!” I said. “Did you place that ad?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yep! And you have a response already!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It took him a few days to convince me to let him reply for me. The next day, he told me that I had a lunch date Saturday at a Riverwalk café. I almost didn’t go, but I figured, what did I have to lose? If it didn’t go well, I’d be out a few dollars for lunch and the bus fare.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that is how I met Ashley. I was wearing my best jeans, a halfway decent button-down shirt, and a tie. I was a few minutes late. I’d like to say it was because I missed a bus connection, but it was mostly because I had trouble getting the knot in my tie right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked down the steps from street level to the Riverwalk and saw a slender woman sitting at a table set for two. She had her back to me, so my first impression was dirty blond hair gathered in a sliver clip at neck level, and hanging about halfway down the back of her white silk blouse. She was wearing a denim skirt just barely too short and tight for modesty, and high, snug-fitting cowboy boots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked up to the table, and she smiled up at me. “Are you Jake?” she asked. Her turquoise pendant matched the color of her eyes. She was somewhere in her mid-thirties, and very attractive, but not quite gorgeous. That was a relief. I always get awkward and tongue-tied around beautiful women. “Yes, ma’am,” I replied. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Then, have a seat. And lose the tie,” she said. “And don’t call me ma’am.” To be honest, I was glad she told me to take the tie off. I hated wearing ties. To me, ties are like inverted nooses. Also, it was getting rather warm in the sun. We spent a while in small talk, and then the waiter came over. She ordered for me, something Italian sounding and a glass of wine. I started to say that I was under 21, but she silenced me with a look. The waiter certainly looked like he wasn’t going to ask any questions. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The meal was delicious. It was a mixture of fresh vegetables, pasta and steak in a red sauce. Not a jar sauce you’d buy down in the HEB supermarket, but a sauce made from freshly diced tomatoes, herbs and red wine. We chatted some more while finishing out meals. After the waiter cleared the plates, her demeanor changed. Suddenly all business, she asked, “So, Jake, what do you want from me?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Instantly, a cat got my tongue. I had no idea what to say. Eventually, I managed to tell her the story about failing my Calc mid-term, losing my scholarship and my roommate’s solution. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“So, you’re looking for someone to pay your way through college,” she said. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I don’t know what I’m looking for, ma’am. It‘s just that I like Murch U., and I want to finish my degree there, and I don‘t know how to pay for it. When Scott said he‘d set up a date for me, I figured I could always say no if I felt uncomfortable about it. The worst I would be out an afternoon and the price of my lunch.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“What’s Scott’s phone number?” she asked, pulling a high-end smartphone from her purse. I told her, and she called him. First, she verified that Scott had indeed placed the Craigslist ad and set me up. Then, it sounded like she was checking a job candidate’s references. She thanked Scott, put her phone in her purse, then looked at me for several long, awkward minutes. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m actually a Murch alumna, class of ‘89, so I understand why you’d want to stay. I like you, Jake. I’ll tell you what. You’re tuition is paid through the end of the semester, right? Let’s consider that a probationary period. If we get along, and you work hard for me, and pull up your math grade as best you can, I’ll think about sponsoring you for the fall semester. In return, I’ll require your company once or twice a week as my personal assistant. If it doesn‘t work out, well, I know someone in the Admissions Office at State.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, that is how it started. Once or twice a week or so, I helped her out. I set up A/V equipment at her business meetings, provided company for dinner, ran errands for her, and was her general all-around gofer. The one thing I was both hoping for and afraid of never happened. She never invited me to her bedroom. In fact, she only touched me a handful of times, and never flirted or even hinted at sex. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She called me into her office after finals were over. She said, “You know, you’ve been a good worker. I’m not sure I’d have gotten the Boerne contract without you. Also, I talked to Dr. Drake, and he said you managed to pull off a B-. He was impressed, given your midterm grade. So, it seems like you fulfilled your part of our bargain. Now, whatever you decide about college, I’d like to keep you on for next year. Do you still want to go to Murch next year?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I nodded my head yes. “Good” She put a piece of paper in front of me. “This is a contract. It says that I will pay your tuition for the fall semester. In return, you agree to work as my personal assistant. You will also maintain a B average, and add a minor in business administration to your engineering classes. Also, within ten years of graduation, you will find a student in a similar position to yourself, and help them as I will be helping you. If you do not satisfy these terms, you will repay me. Is that acceptable?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Um, do you have a pen I could use?” I signed the contract, and she signed her name beside mine. Then, she pulled out an envelope and handed it to me. Inside was a check for the fall semester’s tuition, minus what financial aid I had managed to keep. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You’ll still be responsible for room, board and fees,” she said. I wasn’t about to complain. “Now, one other thing. If you are going to be my assistant next year, you’ll need more reliable transportation than the bus or your bike.” She handed me another envelope. Inside it were a set of keys, and the title, registration and insurance for a five year old Civic. “Consider it your bonus for helping me get that contract. I assume you can drive a manual? No? Well then, I’ll just have to teach you!” We spent the rest of the afternoon in the car, learning how to drive it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My parents were not at all happy about the deal. They thought Ashley was using me for something. They didn&#039;t know what, but they didn&#039;t trust her motives. They also didn’t like the fact that I would be with an older woman. It didn&#039;t matter that I said we&#039;d never had sex. In the end, though, I convinced them that a deal was a deal, and I couldn’t back out. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The fall semester passed much like the end of the previous spring, with me as her gofer and A/V squad, as well as occasional dinner dates and other non-work occasions. I learned a lot that I would never have learned at the university: how to read people, how to read a legal document, how to cook, how to choose a good wine, how to dress well. It was quite an education. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also helped out once in a while at her ranch in the hill country, clearing brush or restoring the old stone ranch house. She was trying to exterminate invasive salt cedar from her ranch, and it was a lot of hard work. One day, I looked down at some ground still damp from the rain a few days before, and saw what appeared to be a big cat track. She said it was a bobcat. I wasn’t so sure. It looked awfully big. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I went to the Army/Navy store the next day and bought a Ka-Bar. I knew I wouldn’t need it for a bobcat, and it wouldn’t help against a puma. Still, carrying it made me feel better when we were clearing brush. It made her laugh. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As I got to know her, I occasionally caught glimpses behind the facade she showed the world. She wasn&#039;t the strong, independent, self-sufficient businesswoman she liked people to think she was. Every once in a while, she&#039;d see a happy couple, and a lonely, wistful look would come over her face for just an instant. Once in a great while, she&#039;d start flirt with me, stop suddenly and deny it ever happened.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The weeks turned into months. We renewed our contract for the spring semester. My parents still didn’t like it. They did come up for Parent’s weekend to meet Ashley. She must have made a good impression, because their disapproval faded after that. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shortly after Spring Break, she said she had arranged a summer internship for me with a friend’s engineering company. I said, “Thanks, that’s great, but where will I stay? The dorms will be closed, and my parents live too far away to commute.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You can stay with me.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that’s how I ended up at her ranch one night in late May. After a wonderful dinner that we had cooked together, and more wine than I was used to, she started getting all flirty with me. I expected her to stop like always, but she didn&#039;t. Coming off the stress of final exams, I suppose I was more susceptible to seduction. One thing led to the next, and, the next thing I knew, I was flat on my back on her four-post bed, buck naked. The old floor-to-ceiling doors were open, and the curtains fluttered in the breeze. She was kneeling over me, naked and half-illuminated by the full moon’s light and candlelight, saying, “Do you trust me?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yes,“ I said. Get a 20 year guy old somewhat drunk and very hot and bothered, and he’ll say yes to just about anything a good looking woman asks. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She took one of my hands, and stretched it up over my head. With her other hand, she felt under her pillow, and pulled out a leather wrist cuff on a strap. She fastened it around my wrist, then did the same with my other arm. She did the same thing with my ankles. She then straddled my thighs and wrapped both hands around my cock. “Comfy?” she asked as she kneaded with her strong fingers. I was too distracted to reply with anything but a low moan. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She dug her nails into the tender skin along the underside of my cock. I gasped. I was about to complain, but rather than deflating, I had never been harder. She raised herself up onto her knees, shifted a bit, then impaled herself on me. She was hot, wet and tight. Hotter and tighter than anyone I had ever been with before. Not that I was very experienced. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I moaned again and closed my eyes. She lifted up again, and something sharp dragged against the top of my cock as she did so. I instantly sat up, or would have if my arms hadn’t been strapped down. “What the fuck!” I yelled as I looked down. Two thin scratches ran the length of my cock, with beads of blood forming. “Why the heck did you do that? Let me go!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m afraid I can’t, Jake. Not anymore. If I did, I’d have to kill you. And I like you too much to do that.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sank back down, and her vaginal wetness stung in the scratches. “You see, Jake,” she said as she leaned forward, the candles on the nightstands shining on her face, “I’m not exactly human, and soon you won’t be either.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As she said this, her irises changed from pale blue to green-flecked gold. The changes progressed outwards from there. Her eyelids turned black, and the outer corners shifted upwards. Her nose grew broader, then longer as her upper lip became fleshier and her jaws extended. Her ears became thin, pointed, and migrated back and up. She sat up again, and her breasts shrank until they were mostly nipple. Two rows of dark spots appeared below them, then grew into additional nipples. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sat there for a moment, with her hands resting on my belly. Each finger ended in a sharp, hooked claw. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m a shape shifter, a were-cougar. And now you will be too. It’s transmitted by exchange of bodily fluids. I could have bitten you, but I thought this would be more … fun. With my vashinal wetnesh in your bloodshtream, you will be a were-cougar, thoo!” She laughed, showing off long fangs and sharp incisors. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know, I wash thinking abouth thath Craigthlith ad.” Her diction was becoming slurred as her mouth became more and more catlike. “You really shoulth be carefull whath you athk for, jutht in cathe you geth ith!” By this time, he body was covered in pale brown fur, and her internal temperature became even hotter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My mind was torn. I wanted to rip out the straps and run. I wanted her to keep fucking me. I didn’t want to come and release the only control I had left. I couldn’t wait until I did. I was on the edge of panic when I finally orgasmed, my cock pulsing and throbbing inside what was now almost entirely a cougar. Only a few faint vestiges of humanity were still visible - fingers on her front paws, and a deeper brainpan than normal for a feline. She lay down on me and pushed her nose into my face. Her tail flicked between my ankles. Her whiskers tickled as she rubbed her cheeks on mine. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Scent marking me, claiming me as yours? I asked. She lifted her head, and nodded. All of a sudden, I had to laugh. She tilted her head as if to ask, “What?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I just came in a pussy pussy!” She crinkled her nose at me, and proceeded to lick my face with her very rough tongue. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The next morning, I woke up with my cock in something hot, wet and vibrating. It took me a minute to realize what was going on - the most incredible blowjob I’d ever gotten. She was purring! Between that and the incredible things her coarse tongue did to me, I quickly exploded into her mouth. She cleaned me off with her tong, then licked her lips. It wasn’t until a few minutes later that I realized I wasn’t tied down anymore. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“There is a serious advantage to being one of the smaller cats,” she said. “Lions and tigers and leopards get all the press, but they can’t give purr jobs! Come on, breakfast is ready. Let’s eat while I explain.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Breakfast was delicious, as usual. As we ate, she told me that she had been an ROTC cadet until she was diagnosed with advanced hepatitis during her sophomore year. She lost her ROTC scholarship, and would have had to withdraw from Murch hadn’t one of her doctors taken her under his wing. Soon after, she let him seduce her, only to find herself being forced by a cougar. He was apologetic after, and taught her how to control her inner beast, but she never again let her guard down around him. And, until the previous night, had restricted herself to a few one-night stands with other were-folk. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know,” she said, “I wasn’t joking last night. When I said I’d have to kill you. It’s one of the few laws all weres have in common. Anyone who knows we exist must become one of us, or die. Had I let you go, we’d both be hunted down and killed.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She stopped spreading jam on her toast and put it down. “I’m sorry, Jake, truly I am. It’s just that I’ve been so alone. I can’t undo what I did to you last night. I wish I could have given you a choice.” I didn’t know what to say, so I said nothing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After that, we went our separate ways to work: me to my internship, her to her office. Afterward, I returned to the ranch to find her sitting on the patio, with wet eyes. I wasn’t sure yet how I felt about what she had done to me, but I still cared for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I sat next to her, and she said, “After Dr. Hennessey changed me, I felt like I had been raped. Yes, the sex was completely consensual, but what came with it… was very much like a rape. And now, I&#039;ve done the same thing to you. I feel so guilty. Can you forgive me?&amp;quot; She looked so miserable, so apologetic, that I took her in my arms, and kissed her tears away. Eventually, we were kissing, then she made love to me with an abandon that can only come from denying yourself for fifteen years. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then something she had said clicked. “You had unprotected sex with me, and you have hepatitis?” I almost screamed it at her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She laughed at me. That made me even madder. She actually laughed at me. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I turned you into a fucking werecat, and you’re worried about hepatitis?” She continued more quietly. “Jake, The virus can’t survive in a felid body, and cougar diseases can’t survive in humans. About the only thing we have to worry about is toxoplasmosis. Don‘t eat rats and wash your hands after changing a litter box, and you don‘t really have to worry about infectious disease at all.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the next several weeks like that. She’d wake me with a blowjob or sex, we’d go off to work, then come home for more. In between, she told me what to expect on the next night of the full moon. Eventually, she said, I’d be able to control it and change at will regardless of the moon phase, but for the next six months or so, I should plan on spending full moon nights at the ranch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During that time, something strange was building within me. Some sort of tension, or static electric energy. It felt like every nerve I had was buzzing, with fear or with anticipation, I couldn’t tell which. She enrolled me in meditation and tai chi lessons, and that was the only thing that really eased the itch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The morning of the full moon, I woke up before she did for a change. I was near bursting with the tension within me. I figured it was time to pay her back for all the wakeup calls she had given me. I slowly spread Ashley’s legs apart, then kissed the slit between them, at first gently, then with more and more pressure as her labia swelled and dampened. I licked and sucked and prodded with my tongue until I felt her spasm. Before the last wave crested, I flipped her on to her stomach, then took her from behind. Before long, she came again with me inside her. It felt so good that I followed shortly thereafter. I collapsed on top of her as we basked in the orgasm afterglow. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She lifted herself up on one elbow to look over her shoulder at me, smiled, and kissed me. Then she reached over to her handbag and pulled out a compact. She opened it up and held it so I could see myself in the mirror. My brown eyes had lightened to cougar gold. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I called in sick, and we spent most of the day clearing salt cedar. By the end of the day, I felt like I was holding a live wire or something. I heard a flutter behind me, and by reflex turned to look. My eye was immediately caught by the motion of a sparrow flying overhead. After it passed, I smelled its scent wafting down. All day, I was being distracted by the local wildlife. All the time I had helped her on her ranch, I had never noticed how much of it there was. Now, every rustle, every scent on the breeze, every glimpse of motion caught my attention. Late in the afternoon, we spooked a rabbit, and I almost started chasing it. Ashley laughed, put her arms around me and said “I’ve done that, too. Come on, it’s almost time.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the sun getting low in the sky, she led me to a secluded clearing near the creek. We undressed each other, then sat down to wait. The setting sun made everything glow, including her body. Her scent filled my nostrils. I reached for her. She put her arms around me, gave me a hug, and said, “Not now. Later, I promise.” She was still holding me as the nervous tension inside me jumped in a sudden crescendo. I looked up, and saw the moon rising over the hill across the valley. “It’s okay, baby. I’m here with you. I’ll be with you.” She kept murmuring reassurances in my ear. It started in my groin where she had - is infected the right word? - well, infected me. My cock and balls retreated backwards between my legs. My cock was slowly being enveloped by a sheath. As I watched, the tip disappeared inside it. Next to change were my fingertips. I felt pressure inside them. My fingernails grew thicker and longer and hooked into wickedly sharp claws. Then I felt the same thing in my toes. My toenails became claws, then my toes bent upwards as my foot bones lengthened. Then, I felt the same pressure in my jaws. First, my canines expanded in girth and length. I ran my tongue over my new fangs. The pressure grew to fill my lower face. I felt my jaws extending forward, pushed out by the pressure within. My nose broadened and suddenly, I was overwhelmed by the scents surrounding me. I focused on Ashley’s scent. Her odor, her words whispered in my ears, her arms around me kept me grounded, sane, as my ears were dragged backwards and upwards through my skull. I became aware of pressure in my chest. It grew until it felt like my breastbone was being pulled away from my spine, and my ribs were being crushed in from side to side. With a wrenching, painful crack, my ribs rearranged themselves into the ovoid shape of the felid torso. My arms drooped and I panicked a bit until I recalled that the front legs of felids are not attached to the rest of the skeleton. I felt the muscles in my shoulders rearrange themselves to support my arms, which were rapidly becoming forelegs. My skin itched intolerably for what felt like an eternity. I looked down, and saw tawny fur growing. Soon, it covered my body. Then, with a sensation somewhere between a full body toothache and a mind-blowing, toe-curling orgasm, the rest of my body followed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You know the feeling of release when you&#039;re finally fully naked for the first time with a new lover? That&#039;s what it felt like. I felt free. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It’s hard to describe what happened after that. It’s not that I don’t remember what happened. I can’t find the words to describe it. My best guess is, as the changes penetrated into my brain, I lost the use of language. Ashley’s murmured reassurances became a buzz. This scared me more than anything else had. Was I losing my identity, the memories and skills and experiences that made me who I am? Until then, I could think of myself as a human in a cougar body. Now I was losing that, too,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I panicked and tried to run, but my four legs betrayed me. I couldn’t coordinate them, and fell painfully on my snout. Ashley let me go, and got down on her hands and knees. She shifted into a cougar herself. It was the first time I got to watch her shift since that night four weeks before. I had been a bit distracted then. I was amazed by how fluid it looked, compared to how it felt when I changed. After I regained my feet, she led me into the bushes. I stumbled at first, but soon walking on four legs seemed natural. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the night prowling her ranch,. She taught me how to walk, run, pounce, and climb on four legs instead of two, how to use night vision, smell and hearing to navigate instead of stumbling around in the dark. Towards dawn, she brought down a yearling buck, and I tasted hot blood for the first time. It was wonderful. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then she led me back to the clearing by the creek where we had first changed. We made love in the dawn sunlight as we regained our humanity. Over the summer, she taught me how to be a cougar, without losing my identity in the cougar mind. Just as I will teach you. That was ten years ago. Now I&#039;ve fulfilled my part of the contract.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I finished telling my story, and looked down at the lovely olive-skinned, raven-haired coed, Murch U Class of 2013, that I still had pinned face down on my bed. With my weight on top of her, and my furred hands still gripping her wrists, she was as helpless as I had been when Ashley had tied me to her bed. I saw the fear in her teary eyes, and smelled her blood from where I had nipped the back of her neck with my fangs, the scratches on her wrists from my claws, and the lacerations that the barbs on my felid cock had left inside her. “I’m sorry I hurt you, dear. Please, don&#039;t do anything stupid. I don’t want to have to kill you.”&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;No matter how many times I checked my math, the answer came out the same. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I had flunked my Calculus II mid-term exam so badly that, even if I got straight 100s for the rest of the semester, my final grade would not be high enough to keep my scholarship. Without it, there was no way my family could pay my tuition at a private liberal arts college like Murchison U.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My roommate heard me groan, and asked what was wrong. I explained, and he let out a low whistle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 “That’s a serious bummer!” he said. “What are you going to do?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Transfer to State, I guess.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Damn. You‘ve been a good roommate.” He went back to studying, then a few minutes later said, “You need a cougar.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A what?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A cougar. A rich woman to pay your bills. The female equivalent of a sugar daddy.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Oh, stop it!&amp;quot; I yelled, &amp;quot;You want me to prostitute myself to pay for college? That&#039;s just wrong! And besides, how the heck could I attract a woman like that?” I was after all, a scrawny, somewhat nerdy engineering major.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He just smiled and went back to his reading, A few days later, he flashed me a big grin and showed me an ad on Craigslist. “Cougar wanted,” it said. “Nice but shy SWM, NS, college student seeks sugar mommy for …” I didn’t bother reading the rest. &amp;quot;Come one!” I said. “Did you place that ad?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yep! And you have a response already!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It took him a few days to convince me to let him reply for me. The next day, he told me that I had a lunch date Saturday at a Riverwalk café. I almost didn’t go, but I figured, what did I have to lose? If it didn’t go well, I’d be out a few dollars for lunch and the bus fare.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that is how I met Ashley. I was wearing my best jeans, a halfway decent button-down shirt, and a tie. I was a few minutes late. I’d like to say it was because I missed a bus connection, but it was mostly because I had trouble getting the knot in my tie right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked down the steps from street level to the Riverwalk and saw a slender woman sitting at a table set for two. She had her back to me, so my first impression was dirty blond hair gathered in a sliver clip at neck level, and hanging about halfway down the back of her white silk blouse. She was wearing a denim skirt just barely too short and tight for modesty, and high, snug-fitting cowboy boots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked up to the table, and she smiled up at me. “Are you Jake?” she asked. Her turquoise pendant matched the color of her eyes. She was somewhere in her mid-thirties, and very attractive, but not quite gorgeous. That was a relief. I always get awkward and tongue-tied around beautiful women. “Yes, ma’am,” I replied. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Then, have a seat. And lose the tie,” she said. “And don’t call me ma’am.” To be honest, I was glad she told me to take the tie off. I hated wearing ties. To me, ties are like inverted nooses. Also, it was getting rather warm in the sun. We spent a while in small talk, and then the waiter came over. She ordered for me, something Italian sounding and a glass of wine. I started to say that I was under 21, but she silenced me with a look. The waiter certainly looked like he wasn’t going to ask any questions. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The meal was delicious. It was a mixture of fresh vegetables, pasta and steak in a red sauce. Not a jar sauce you’d buy down in the HEB supermarket, but a sauce made from freshly diced tomatoes, herbs and red wine. We chatted some more while finishing out meals. After the waiter cleared the plates, her demeanor changed. Suddenly all business, she asked, “So, Jake, what do you want from me?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Instantly, a cat got my tongue. I had no idea what to say. Eventually, I managed to tell her the story about failing my Calc mid-term, losing my scholarship and my roommate’s solution. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“So, you’re looking for someone to pay your way through college,” she said. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I don’t know what I’m looking for, ma’am. It‘s just that I like Murch U., and I want to finish my degree there, and I don‘t know how to pay for it. When Scott said he‘d set up a date for me, I figured I could always say no if I felt uncomfortable about it. The worst I would be out an afternoon and the price of my lunch.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“What’s Scott’s phone number?” she asked, pulling a high-end smartphone from her purse. I told her, and she called him. First, she verified that Scott had indeed placed the Craigslist ad and set me up. Then, it sounded like she was checking a job candidate’s references. She thanked Scott, put her phone in her purse, then looked at me for several long, awkward minutes. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m actually a Murch alumna, class of ‘89, so I understand why you’d want to stay. I like you, Jake. I’ll tell you what. You’re tuition is paid through the end of the semester, right? Let’s consider that a probationary period. If we get along, and you work hard for me, and pull up your math grade as best you can, I’ll think about sponsoring you for the fall semester. In return, I’ll require your company once or twice a week as my personal assistant. If it doesn‘t work out, well, I know someone in the Admissions Office at State.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, that is how it started. Once or twice a week or so, I helped her out. I set up A/V equipment at her business meetings, provided company for dinner, ran errands for her, and was her general all-around gofer. The one thing I was both hoping for and afraid of never happened. She never invited me to her bedroom. In fact, she only touched me a handful of times, and never flirted or even hinted at sex. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She called me into her office after finals were over. She said, “You know, you’ve been a good worker. I’m not sure I’d have gotten the Boerne contract without you. Also, I talked to Dr. Drake, and he said you managed to pull off a B-. He was impressed, given your midterm grade. So, it seems like you fulfilled your part of our bargain. Now, whatever you decide about college, I’d like to keep you on for next year. Do you still want to go to Murch next year?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I nodded my head yes. “Good” She put a piece of paper in front of me. “This is a contract. It says that I will pay your tuition for the fall semester. In return, you agree to work as my personal assistant. You will also maintain a B average, and add a minor in business administration to your engineering classes. Also, within ten years of graduation, you will find a student in a similar position to yourself, and help them as I will be helping you. If you do not satisfy these terms, you will repay me. Is that acceptable?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Um, do you have a pen I could use?” I signed the contract, and she signed her name beside mine. Then, she pulled out an envelope and handed it to me. Inside was a check for the fall semester’s tuition, minus what financial aid I had managed to keep. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You’ll still be responsible for room, board and fees,” she said. I wasn’t about to complain. “Now, one other thing. If you are going to be my assistant next year, you’ll need more reliable transportation than the bus or your bike.” She handed me another envelope. Inside it were a set of keys, and the title, registration and insurance for a five year old Civic. “Consider it your bonus for helping me get that contract. I assume you can drive a manual? No? Well then, I’ll just have to teach you!” We spent the rest of the afternoon in the car, learning how to drive it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My parents were not at all happy about the deal. They thought Ashley was using me for something. They didn&#039;t know what, but they didn&#039;t trust her motives. They also didn’t like the fact that I would be with an older woman. It didn&#039;t matter that I said we&#039;d never had sex. In the end, though, I convinced them that a deal was a deal, and I couldn’t back out. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The fall semester passed much like the end of the previous spring, with me as her gofer and A/V squad, as well as occasional dinner dates and other non-work occasions. I learned a lot that I would never have learned at the university: how to read people, how to read a legal document, how to cook, how to choose a good wine, how to dress well. It was quite an education. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also helped out once in a while at her ranch in the hill country, clearing brush or restoring the old stone ranch house. She was trying to exterminate invasive salt cedar from her ranch, and it was a lot of hard work. One day, I looked down at some ground still damp from the rain a few days before, and saw what appeared to be a big cat track. She said it was a bobcat. I wasn’t so sure. It looked awfully big. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I went to the Army/Navy store the next day and bought a Ka-Bar. I knew I wouldn’t need it for a bobcat, and it wouldn’t help against a puma. Still, carrying it made me feel better when we were clearing brush. It made her laugh. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As I got to know her, I occasionally caught glimpses behind the facade she showed the world. She wasn&#039;t the strong, independent, self-sufficient businesswoman she liked people to think she was. Every once in a while, she&#039;d see a happy couple, and a lonely, wistful look would come over her face for just an instant. Once in a great while, she&#039;d start flirt with me, stop suddenly and deny it ever happened.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The weeks turned into months. We renewed our contract for the spring semester. My parents still didn’t like it. They did come up for Parent’s weekend to meet Ashley. She must have made a good impression, because their disapproval faded after that. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shortly after Spring Break, she said she had arranged a summer internship for me with a friend’s engineering company. I said, “Thanks, that’s great, but where will I stay? The dorms will be closed, and my parents live too far away to commute.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You can stay with me.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that’s how I ended up at her ranch one night in late May. After a wonderful dinner that we had cooked together, and more wine than I was used to, she started getting all flirty with me. I expected her to stop like always, but she didn&#039;t. Coming off the stress of final exams, I suppose I was more susceptible to seduction. One thing led to the next, and, the next thing I knew, I was flat on my back on her four-post bed, buck naked. The old floor-to-ceiling doors were open, and the curtains fluttered in the breeze. She was kneeling over me, naked and half-illuminated by the full moon’s light and candlelight, saying, “Do you trust me?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yes,“ I said. Get a 20 year guy old somewhat drunk and very hot and bothered, and he’ll say yes to just about anything a good looking woman asks. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She took one of my hands, and stretched it up over my head. With her other hand, she felt under her pillow, and pulled out a leather wrist cuff on a strap. She fastened it around my wrist, then did the same with my other arm. She did the same thing with my ankles. She then straddled my thighs and wrapped both hands around my cock. “Comfy?” she asked as she kneaded with her strong fingers. I was too distracted to reply with anything but a low moan. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She dug her nails into the tender skin along the underside of my cock. I gasped. I was about to complain, but rather than deflating, I had never been harder. She raised herself up onto her knees, shifted a bit, then impaled herself on me. She was hot, wet and tight. Hotter and tighter than anyone I had ever been with before. Not that I was very experienced. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I moaned again and closed my eyes. She lifted up again, and something sharp dragged against the top of my cock as she did so. I instantly sat up, or would have if my arms hadn’t been strapped down. “What the fuck!” I yelled as I looked down. Two thin scratches ran the length of my cock, with beads of blood forming. “Why the heck did you do that? Let me go!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m afraid I can’t, Jake. Not anymore. If I did, I’d have to kill you. And I like you too much to do that.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sank back down, and her vaginal wetness stung in the scratches. “You see, Jake,” she said as she leaned forward, the candles on the nightstands shining on her face, “I’m not exactly human, and soon you won’t be either.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As she said this, her irises changed from pale blue to green-flecked gold. The changes progressed outwards from there. Her eyelids turned black, and the outer corners shifted upwards. Her nose grew broader, then longer as her upper lip became fleshier and her jaws extended. Her ears became thin, pointed, and migrated back and up. She sat up again, and her breasts shrank until they were mostly nipple. Two rows of dark spots appeared below them, then grew into additional nipples. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sat there for a moment, with her hands resting on my belly. Each finger ended in a sharp, hooked claw. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m a shape shifter, a were-cougar. And now you will be too. It’s transmitted by exchange of bodily fluids. I could have bitten you, but I thought this would be more … fun. With my vashinal wetnesh in your bloodshtream, you will be a were-cougar, thoo!” She laughed, showing off long fangs and sharp incisors. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know, I wash thinking abouth thath Craigthlith ad.” Her diction was becoming slurred as her mouth became more and more catlike. “You really shoulth be carefull whath you athk for, jutht in cathe you geth ith!” By this time, he body was covered in pale brown fur, and her internal temperature became even hotter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My mind was torn. I wanted to rip out the straps and run. I wanted her to keep fucking me. I didn’t want to come and release the only control I had left. I couldn’t wait until I did. I was on the edge of panic when I finally orgasmed, my cock pulsing and throbbing inside what was now almost entirely a cougar. Only a few faint vestiges of humanity were still visible - fingers on her front paws, and a deeper brainpan than normal for a feline. She lay down on me and pushed her nose into my face. Her tail flicked between my ankles. Her whiskers tickled as she rubbed her cheeks on mine. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Scent marking me, claiming me as yours? I asked. She lifted her head, and nodded. All of a sudden, I had to laugh. She tilted her head as if to ask, “What?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I just came in a pussy pussy!” She crinkled her nose at me, and proceeded to lick my face with her very rough tongue. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The next morning, I woke up with my cock in something hot, wet and vibrating. It took me a minute to realize what was going on - the most incredible blowjob I’d ever gotten. She was purring! Between that and the incredible things her coarse tongue did to me, I quickly exploded into her mouth. She cleaned me off with her tong, then licked her lips. It wasn’t until a few minutes later that I realized I wasn’t tied down anymore. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“There is a serious advantage to being one of the smaller cats,” she said. “Lions and tigers and leopards get all the press, but they can’t give purr jobs! Come on, breakfast is ready. Let’s eat while I explain.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Breakfast was delicious, as usual. As we ate, she told me that she had been an ROTC cadet until she was diagnosed with advanced hepatitis during her sophomore year. She lost her ROTC scholarship, and would have had to withdraw from Murch hadn’t one of her doctors taken her under his wing. Soon after, she let him seduce her, only to find herself being forced by a cougar. He was apologetic after, and taught her how to control her inner beast, but she never again let her guard down around him. And, until the previous night, had restricted herself to a few one-night stands with other were-folk. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know,” she said, “I wasn’t joking last night. When I said I’d have to kill you. It’s one of the few laws all weres have in common. Anyone who knows we exist must become one of us, or die. Had I let you go, we’d both be hunted down and killed.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She stopped spreading jam on her toast and put it down. “I’m sorry, Jake, truly I am. It’s just that I’ve been so alone. I can’t undo what I did to you last night. I wish I could have given you a choice.” I didn’t know what to say, so I said nothing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After that, we went our separate ways to work: me to my internship, her to her office. Afterward, I returned to the ranch to find her sitting on the patio, with wet eyes. I wasn’t sure yet how I felt about what she had done to me, but I still cared for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I sat next to her, and she said, “After Dr. Hennessey changed me, I felt like I had been raped. Yes, the sex was completely consensual, but what came with it… was very much like a rape. And now, I&#039;ve done the same thing to you. I feel so guilty. Can you forgive me?&amp;quot; She looked so miserable, so apologetic, that I took her in my arms, and kissed her tears away. Eventually, we were kissing, then she made love to me with an abandon that can only come from denying yourself for fifteen years. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then something she had said clicked. “You had unprotected sex with me, and you have hepatitis?” I almost screamed it at her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She laughed at me. That made me even madder. She actually laughed at me. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I turned you into a fucking werecat, and you’re worried about hepatitis?” She continued more quietly. “Jake, The virus can’t survive in a felid body, and cougar diseases can’t survive in humans. About the only thing we have to worry about is toxoplasmosis. Don‘t eat rats and wash your hands after changing a litter box, and you don‘t really have to worry about infectious disease at all.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the next several weeks like that. She’d wake me with a blowjob or sex, we’d go off to work, then come home for more. In between, she told me what to expect on the next night of the full moon. Eventually, she said, I’d be able to control it and change at will regardless of the moon phase, but for the next six months or so, I should plan on spending full moon nights at the ranch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During that time, something strange was building within me. Some sort of tension, or static electric energy. It felt like every nerve I had was buzzing, with fear or with anticipation, I couldn’t tell which. She enrolled me in meditation and tai chi lessons, and that was the only thing that really eased the itch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The morning of the full moon, I woke up before she did for a change. I was near bursting with the tension within me. I figured it was time to pay her back for all the wakeup calls she had given me. I slowly spread Ashley’s legs apart, then kissed the slit between them, at first gently, then with more and more pressure as her labia swelled and dampened. I licked and sucked and prodded with my tongue until I felt her spasm. Before the last wave crested, I flipped her on to her stomach, then took her from behind. Before long, she came again with me inside her. It felt so good that I followed shortly thereafter. I collapsed on top of her as we basked in the orgasm afterglow. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She lifted herself up on one elbow to look over her shoulder at me, smiled, and kissed me. Then she reached over to her handbag and pulled out a compact. She opened it up and held it so I could see myself in the mirror. My brown eyes had lightened to cougar gold. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I called in sick, and we spent most of the day clearing salt cedar. By the end of the day, I felt like I was holding a live wire or something. I heard a flutter behind me, and by reflex turned to look. My eye was immediately caught by the motion of a sparrow flying overhead. After it passed, I smelled its scent wafting down. All day, I was being distracted by the local wildlife. All the time I had helped her on her ranch, I had never noticed how much of it there was. Now, every rustle, every scent on the breeze, every glimpse of motion caught my attention. Late in the afternoon, we spooked a rabbit, and I almost started chasing it. Ashley laughed, put her arms around me and said “I’ve done that, too. Come on, it’s almost time.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the sun getting low in the sky, she led me to a secluded clearing near the creek. We undressed each other, then sat down to wait. The setting sun made everything glow, including her body. Her scent filled my nostrils. I reached for her. She put her arms around me, gave me a hug, and said, “Not now. Later, I promise.” She was still holding me as the nervous tension inside me jumped in a sudden crescendo. I looked up, and saw the moon rising over the hill across the valley. “It’s okay, baby. I’m here with you. I’ll be with you.” She kept murmuring reassurances in my ear. It started in my groin where she had - is infected the right word? - well, infected me. My cock and balls retreated backwards between my legs. My cock was slowly being enveloped by a sheath. As I watched, the tip disappeared inside it. Next to change were my fingertips. I felt pressure inside them. My fingernails grew thicker and longer and hooked into wickedly sharp claws. Then I felt the same thing in my toes. My toenails became claws, then my toes bent upwards as my foot bones lengthened. Then, I felt the same pressure in my jaws. First, my canines expanded in girth and length. I ran my tongue over my new fangs. The pressure grew to fill my lower face. I felt my jaws extending forward, pushed out by the pressure within. My nose broadened and suddenly, I was overwhelmed by the scents surrounding me. I focused on Ashley’s scent. Her odor, her words whispered in my ears, her arms around me kept me grounded, sane, as my ears were dragged backwards and upwards through my skull. I became aware of pressure in my chest. It grew until it felt like my breastbone was being pulled away from my spine, and my ribs were being crushed in from side to side. With a wrenching, painful crack, my ribs rearranged themselves into the ovoid shape of the felid torso. My arms drooped and I panicked a bit until I recalled that the front legs of felids are not attached to the rest of the skeleton. I felt the muscles in my shoulders rearrange themselves to support my arms, which were rapidly becoming forelegs. My skin itched intolerably for what felt like an eternity. I looked down, and saw tawny fur growing. Soon, it covered my body. Then, with a sensation somewhere between a full body toothache and a mind-blowing, toe-curling orgasm, the rest of my body followed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You know the feeling of release when you&#039;re finally fully naked for the first time with a new lover? That&#039;s what it felt like. I felt free. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It’s hard to describe what happened after that. It’s not that I don’t remember what happened. I can’t find the words to describe it. My best guess is, as the changes penetrated into my brain, I lost the use of language. Ashley’s murmured reassurances became a buzz. This scared me more than anything else had. Was I losing my identity, the memories and skills and experiences that made me who I am? Until then, I could think of myself as a human in a cougar body. Now I was losing that, too,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I panicked and tried to run, but my four legs betrayed me. I couldn’t coordinate them, and fell painfully on my snout. Ashley let me go, and got down on her hands and knees. She shifted into a cougar herself. It was the first time I got to watch her shift since that night four weeks before. I had been a bit distracted then. I was amazed by how fluid it looked, compared to how it felt when I changed. After I regained my feet, she led me into the bushes. I stumbled at first, but soon walking on four legs seemed natural. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the night prowling her ranch,. She taught me how to walk, run, pounce, and climb on four legs instead of two, how to use night vision, smell and hearing to navigate instead of stumbling around in the dark. Towards dawn, she brought down a yearling buck, and I tasted hot blood for the first time. It was wonderful. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then she led me back to the clearing by the creek where we had first changed. We made love in the dawn sunlight as we regained our humanity. Over the summer, she taught me how to be a cougar, without losing my identity in the cougar mind. Just as I will teach you. That was ten years ago. Now I&#039;ve fulfilled my part of the contract.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I finished telling my story, and looked down at the lovely olive-skinned, raven-haired coed, Murch U Class of 2013, that I still had pinned face down on my bed. With my weight on top of her, and my furred hands still gripping her wrists, she was as helpless as I had been when Ashley had tied me to her bed. I saw the fear in her teary eyes, and smelled her blood from where I had nipped the back of her neck with my fangs, the scratches on her wrists from my claws, and the lacerations that the barbs on my felid cock had left inside her. “I’m sorry I hurt you, dear. Please, don&#039;t do anything stupid. I don’t want to have to kill you.”&lt;br /&gt;

		<summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;Triskelelynx: This is a story I had posted on the defunct TF Media  site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;No matter how many times I checked my math, the answer came out the same. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I had flunked my Calculus II mid-term exam so badly that, even if I got straight 100s for the rest of the semester, my final grade would not be high enough to keep my scholarship. Without it, there was no way my family could pay my tuition at a private liberal arts college like Murchison U.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My roommate heard me groan, and asked what was wrong. I explained, and he let out a low whistle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 “That’s a serious bummer!” he said. “What are you going to do?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Transfer to State, I guess.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Damn. You‘ve been a good roommate.” He went back to studying, then a few minutes later said, “You need a cougar.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A what?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“A cougar. A rich woman to pay your bills. The female equivalent of a sugar daddy.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Oh, stop it!&amp;quot; I yelled, &amp;quot;You want me to prostitute myself to pay for college? That&#039;s just wrong! And besides, how the heck could I attract a woman like that?” I was after all, a scrawny, somewhat nerdy engineering major.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He just smiled and went back to his reading, A few days later, he flashed me a big grin and showed me an ad on Craigslist. “Cougar wanted,” it said. “Nice but shy SWM, NS, college student seeks sugar mommy for …” I didn’t bother reading the rest. &amp;quot;Come one!” I said. “Did you place that ad?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yep! And you have a response already!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It took him a few days to convince me to let him reply for me. The next day, he told me that I had a lunch date Saturday at a Riverwalk café. I almost didn’t go, but I figured, what did I have to lose? If it didn’t go well, I’d be out a few dollars for lunch and the bus fare.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that is how I met Ashley. I was wearing my best jeans, a halfway decent button-down shirt, and a tie. I was a few minutes late. I’d like to say it was because I missed a bus connection, but it was mostly because I had trouble getting the knot in my tie right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked down the steps from street level to the Riverwalk and saw a slender woman sitting at a table set for two. She had her back to me, so my first impression was dirty blond hair gathered in a sliver clip at neck level, and hanging about halfway down the back of her white silk blouse. She was wearing a denim skirt just barely too short and tight for modesty, and high, snug-fitting cowboy boots. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I walked up to the table, and she smiled up at me. “Are you Jake?” she asked. Her turquoise pendant matched the color of her eyes. She was somewhere in her mid-thirties, and very attractive, but not quite gorgeous. That was a relief. I always get awkward and tongue-tied around beautiful women. “Yes, ma’am,” I replied. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Then, have a seat. And lose the tie,” she said. “And don’t call me ma’am.” To be honest, I was glad she told me to take the tie off. I hated wearing ties. To me, ties are like inverted nooses. Also, it was getting rather warm in the sun. We spent a while in small talk, and then the waiter came over. She ordered for me, something Italian sounding and a glass of wine. I started to say that I was under 21, but she silenced me with a look. The waiter certainly looked like he wasn’t going to ask any questions. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The meal was delicious. It was a mixture of fresh vegetables, pasta and steak in a red sauce. Not a jar sauce you’d buy down in the HEB supermarket, but a sauce made from freshly diced tomatoes, herbs and red wine. We chatted some more while finishing out meals. After the waiter cleared the plates, her demeanor changed. Suddenly all business, she asked, “So, Jake, what do you want from me?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Instantly, a cat got my tongue. I had no idea what to say. Eventually, I managed to tell her the story about failing my Calc mid-term, losing my scholarship and my roommate’s solution. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“So, you’re looking for someone to pay your way through college,” she said. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I don’t know what I’m looking for, ma’am. It‘s just that I like Murch U., and I want to finish my degree there, and I don‘t know how to pay for it. When Scott said he‘d set up a date for me, I figured I could always say no if I felt uncomfortable about it. The worst I would be out an afternoon and the price of my lunch.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“What’s Scott’s phone number?” she asked, pulling a high-end smartphone from her purse. I told her, and she called him. First, she verified that Scott had indeed placed the Craigslist ad and set me up. Then, it sounded like she was checking a job candidate’s references. She thanked Scott, put her phone in her purse, then looked at me for several long, awkward minutes. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m actually a Murch alumna, class of ‘89, so I understand why you’d want to stay. I like you, Jake. I’ll tell you what. You’re tuition is paid through the end of the semester, right? Let’s consider that a probationary period. If we get along, and you work hard for me, and pull up your math grade as best you can, I’ll think about sponsoring you for the fall semester. In return, I’ll require your company once or twice a week as my personal assistant. If it doesn‘t work out, well, I know someone in the Admissions Office at State.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, that is how it started. Once or twice a week or so, I helped her out. I set up A/V equipment at her business meetings, provided company for dinner, ran errands for her, and was her general all-around gofer. The one thing I was both hoping for and afraid of never happened. She never invited me to her bedroom. In fact, she only touched me a handful of times, and never flirted or even hinted at sex. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She called me into her office after finals were over. She said, “You know, you’ve been a good worker. I’m not sure I’d have gotten the Boerne contract without you. Also, I talked to Dr. Drake, and he said you managed to pull off a B-. He was impressed, given your midterm grade. So, it seems like you fulfilled your part of our bargain. Now, whatever you decide about college, I’d like to keep you on for next year. Do you still want to go to Murch next year?”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I nodded my head yes. “Good” She put a piece of paper in front of me. “This is a contract. It says that I will pay your tuition for the fall semester. In return, you agree to work as my personal assistant. You will also maintain a B average, and add a minor in business administration to your engineering classes. Also, within ten years of graduation, you will find a student in a similar position to yourself, and help them as I will be helping you. If you do not satisfy these terms, you will repay me. Is that acceptable?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Um, do you have a pen I could use?” I signed the contract, and she signed her name beside mine. Then, she pulled out an envelope and handed it to me. Inside was a check for the fall semester’s tuition, minus what financial aid I had managed to keep. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You’ll still be responsible for room, board and fees,” she said. I wasn’t about to complain. “Now, one other thing. If you are going to be my assistant next year, you’ll need more reliable transportation than the bus or your bike.” She handed me another envelope. Inside it were a set of keys, and the title, registration and insurance for a five year old Civic. “Consider it your bonus for helping me get that contract. I assume you can drive a manual? No? Well then, I’ll just have to teach you!” We spent the rest of the afternoon in the car, learning how to drive it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My parents were not at all happy about the deal. They thought Ashley was using me for something. They didn&#039;t know what, but they didn&#039;t trust her motives. They also didn’t like the fact that I would be with an older woman. It didn&#039;t matter that I said we&#039;d never had sex. In the end, though, I convinced them that a deal was a deal, and I couldn’t back out. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The fall semester passed much like the end of the previous spring, with me as her gofer and A/V squad, as well as occasional dinner dates and other non-work occasions. I learned a lot that I would never have learned at the university: how to read people, how to read a legal document, how to cook, how to choose a good wine, how to dress well. It was quite an education. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I also helped out once in a while at her ranch in the hill country, clearing brush or restoring the old stone ranch house. She was trying to exterminate invasive salt cedar from her ranch, and it was a lot of hard work. One day, I looked down at some ground still damp from the rain a few days before, and saw what appeared to be a big cat track. She said it was a bobcat. I wasn’t so sure. It looked awfully big. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I went to the Army/Navy store the next day and bought a Ka-Bar. I knew I wouldn’t need it for a bobcat, and it wouldn’t help against a puma. Still, carrying it made me feel better when we were clearing brush. It made her laugh. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As I got to know her, I occasionally caught glimpses behind the facade she showed the world. She wasn&#039;t the strong, independent, self-sufficient businesswoman she liked people to think she was. Every once in a while, she&#039;d see a happy couple, and a lonely, wistful look would come over her face for just an instant. Once in a great while, she&#039;d start flirt with me, stop suddenly and deny it ever happened.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The weeks turned into months. We renewed our contract for the spring semester. My parents still didn’t like it. They did come up for Parent’s weekend to meet Ashley. She must have made a good impression, because their disapproval faded after that. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shortly after Spring Break, she said she had arranged a summer internship for me with a friend’s engineering company. I said, “Thanks, that’s great, but where will I stay? The dorms will be closed, and my parents live too far away to commute.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You can stay with me.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that’s how I ended up at her ranch one night in late May. After a wonderful dinner that we had cooked together, and more wine than I was used to, she started getting all flirty with me. I expected her to stop like always, but she didn&#039;t. Coming off the stress of final exams, I suppose I was more susceptible to seduction. One thing led to the next, and, the next thing I knew, I was flat on my back on her four-post bed, buck naked. The old floor-to-ceiling doors were open, and the curtains fluttered in the breeze. She was kneeling over me, naked and half-illuminated by the full moon’s light and candlelight, saying, “Do you trust me?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Yes,“ I said. Get a 20 year guy old somewhat drunk and very hot and bothered, and he’ll say yes to just about anything a good looking woman asks. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She took one of my hands, and stretched it up over my head. With her other hand, she felt under her pillow, and pulled out a leather wrist cuff on a strap. She fastened it around my wrist, then did the same with my other arm. She did the same thing with my ankles. She then straddled my thighs and wrapped both hands around my cock. “Comfy?” she asked as she kneaded with her strong fingers. I was too distracted to reply with anything but a low moan. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She dug her nails into the tender skin along the underside of my cock. I gasped. I was about to complain, but rather than deflating, I had never been harder. She raised herself up onto her knees, shifted a bit, then impaled herself on me. She was hot, wet and tight. Hotter and tighter than anyone I had ever been with before. Not that I was very experienced. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I moaned again and closed my eyes. She lifted up again, and something sharp dragged against the top of my cock as she did so. I instantly sat up, or would have if my arms hadn’t been strapped down. “What the fuck!” I yelled as I looked down. Two thin scratches ran the length of my cock, with beads of blood forming. “Why the heck did you do that? Let me go!” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m afraid I can’t, Jake. Not anymore. If I did, I’d have to kill you. And I like you too much to do that.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sank back down, and her vaginal wetness stung in the scratches. “You see, Jake,” she said as she leaned forward, the candles on the nightstands shining on her face, “I’m not exactly human, and soon you won’t be either.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As she said this, her irises changed from pale blue to green-flecked gold. The changes progressed outwards from there. Her eyelids turned black, and the outer corners shifted upwards. Her nose grew broader, then longer as her upper lip became fleshier and her jaws extended. Her ears became thin, pointed, and migrated back and up. She sat up again, and her breasts shrank until they were mostly nipple. Two rows of dark spots appeared below them, then grew into additional nipples. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She sat there for a moment, with her hands resting on my belly. Each finger ended in a sharp, hooked claw. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I’m a shape shifter, a were-cougar. And now you will be too. It’s transmitted by exchange of bodily fluids. I could have bitten you, but I thought this would be more … fun. With my vashinal wetnesh in your bloodshtream, you will be a were-cougar, thoo!” She laughed, showing off long fangs and sharp incisors. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know, I wash thinking abouth thath Craigthlith ad.” Her diction was becoming slurred as her mouth became more and more catlike. “You really shoulth be carefull whath you athk for, jutht in cathe you geth ith!” By this time, he body was covered in pale brown fur, and her internal temperature became even hotter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My mind was torn. I wanted to rip out the straps and run. I wanted her to keep fucking me. I didn’t want to come and release the only control I had left. I couldn’t wait until I did. I was on the edge of panic when I finally orgasmed, my cock pulsing and throbbing inside what was now almost entirely a cougar. Only a few faint vestiges of humanity were still visible - fingers on her front paws, and a deeper brainpan than normal for a feline. She lay down on me and pushed her nose into my face. Her tail flicked between my ankles. Her whiskers tickled as she rubbed her cheeks on mine. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Scent marking me, claiming me as yours? I asked. She lifted her head, and nodded. All of a sudden, I had to laugh. She tilted her head as if to ask, “What?” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I just came in a pussy pussy!” She crinkled her nose at me, and proceeded to lick my face with her very rough tongue. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The next morning, I woke up with my cock in something hot, wet and vibrating. It took me a minute to realize what was going on - the most incredible blowjob I’d ever gotten. She was purring! Between that and the incredible things her coarse tongue did to me, I quickly exploded into her mouth. She cleaned me off with her tong, then licked her lips. It wasn’t until a few minutes later that I realized I wasn’t tied down anymore. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“There is a serious advantage to being one of the smaller cats,” she said. “Lions and tigers and leopards get all the press, but they can’t give purr jobs! Come on, breakfast is ready. Let’s eat while I explain.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Breakfast was delicious, as usual. As we ate, she told me that she had been an ROTC cadet until she was diagnosed with advanced hepatitis during her sophomore year. She lost her ROTC scholarship, and would have had to withdraw from Murch hadn’t one of her doctors taken her under his wing. Soon after, she let him seduce her, only to find herself being forced by a cougar. He was apologetic after, and taught her how to control her inner beast, but she never again let her guard down around him. And, until the previous night, had restricted herself to a few one-night stands with other were-folk. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“You know,” she said, “I wasn’t joking last night. When I said I’d have to kill you. It’s one of the few laws all weres have in common. Anyone who knows we exist must become one of us, or die. Had I let you go, we’d both be hunted down and killed.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She stopped spreading jam on her toast and put it down. “I’m sorry, Jake, truly I am. It’s just that I’ve been so alone. I can’t undo what I did to you last night. I wish I could have given you a choice.” I didn’t know what to say, so I said nothing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After that, we went our separate ways to work: me to my internship, her to her office. Afterward, I returned to the ranch to find her sitting on the patio, with wet eyes. I wasn’t sure yet how I felt about what she had done to me, but I still cared for her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I sat next to her, and she said, “After Dr. Hennessey changed me, I felt like I had been raped. Yes, the sex was completely consensual, but what came with it… was very much like a rape. And now, I&#039;ve done the same thing to you. I feel so guilty. Can you forgive me?&amp;quot; She looked so miserable, so apologetic, that I took her in my arms, and kissed her tears away. Eventually, we were kissing, then she made love to me with an abandon that can only come from denying yourself for fifteen years. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then something she had said clicked. “You had unprotected sex with me, and you have hepatitis?” I almost screamed it at her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She laughed at me. That made me even madder. She actually laughed at me. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I turned you into a fucking werecat, and you’re worried about hepatitis?” She continued more quietly. “Jake, The virus can’t survive in a felid body, and cougar diseases can’t survive in humans. About the only thing we have to worry about is toxoplasmosis. Don‘t eat rats and wash your hands after changing a litter box, and you don‘t really have to worry about infectious disease at all.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the next several weeks like that. She’d wake me with a blowjob or sex, we’d go off to work, then come home for more. In between, she told me what to expect on the next night of the full moon. Eventually, she said, I’d be able to control it and change at will regardless of the moon phase, but for the next six months or so, I should plan on spending full moon nights at the ranch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During that time, something strange was building within me. Some sort of tension, or static electric energy. It felt like every nerve I had was buzzing, with fear or with anticipation, I couldn’t tell which. She enrolled me in meditation and tai chi lessons, and that was the only thing that really eased the itch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The morning of the full moon, I woke up before she did for a change. I was near bursting with the tension within me. I figured it was time to pay her back for all the wakeup calls she had given me. I slowly spread Ashley’s legs apart, then kissed the slit between them, at first gently, then with more and more pressure as her labia swelled and dampened. I licked and sucked and prodded with my tongue until I felt her spasm. Before the last wave crested, I flipped her on to her stomach, then took her from behind. Before long, she came again with me inside her. It felt so good that I followed shortly thereafter. I collapsed on top of her as we basked in the orgasm afterglow. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She lifted herself up on one elbow to look over her shoulder at me, smiled, and kissed me. Then she reached over to her handbag and pulled out a compact. She opened it up and held it so I could see myself in the mirror. My brown eyes had lightened to cougar gold. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I called in sick, and we spent most of the day clearing salt cedar. By the end of the day, I felt like I was holding a live wire or something. I heard a flutter behind me, and by reflex turned to look. My eye was immediately caught by the motion of a sparrow flying overhead. After it passed, I smelled its scent wafting down. All day, I was being distracted by the local wildlife. All the time I had helped her on her ranch, I had never noticed how much of it there was. Now, every rustle, every scent on the breeze, every glimpse of motion caught my attention. Late in the afternoon, we spooked a rabbit, and I almost started chasing it. Ashley laughed, put her arms around me and said “I’ve done that, too. Come on, it’s almost time.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the sun getting low in the sky, she led me to a secluded clearing near the creek. We undressed each other, then sat down to wait. The setting sun made everything glow, including her body. Her scent filled my nostrils. I reached for her. She put her arms around me, gave me a hug, and said, “Not now. Later, I promise.” She was still holding me as the nervous tension inside me jumped in a sudden crescendo. I looked up, and saw the moon rising over the hill across the valley. “It’s okay, baby. I’m here with you. I’ll be with you.” She kept murmuring reassurances in my ear. It started in my groin where she had - is infected the right word? - well, infected me. My cock and balls retreated backwards between my legs. My cock was slowly being enveloped by a sheath. As I watched, the tip disappeared inside it. Next to change were my fingertips. I felt pressure inside them. My fingernails grew thicker and longer and hooked into wickedly sharp claws. Then I felt the same thing in my toes. My toenails became claws, then my toes bent upwards as my foot bones lengthened. Then, I felt the same pressure in my jaws. First, my canines expanded in girth and length. I ran my tongue over my new fangs. The pressure grew to fill my lower face. I felt my jaws extending forward, pushed out by the pressure within. My nose broadened and suddenly, I was overwhelmed by the scents surrounding me. I focused on Ashley’s scent. Her odor, her words whispered in my ears, her arms around me kept me grounded, sane, as my ears were dragged backwards and upwards through my skull. I became aware of pressure in my chest. It grew until it felt like my breastbone was being pulled away from my spine, and my ribs were being crushed in from side to side. With a wrenching, painful crack, my ribs rearranged themselves into the ovoid shape of the felid torso. My arms drooped and I panicked a bit until I recalled that the front legs of felids are not attached to the rest of the skeleton. I felt the muscles in my shoulders rearrange themselves to support my arms, which were rapidly becoming forelegs. My skin itched intolerably for what felt like an eternity. I looked down, and saw tawny fur growing. Soon, it covered my body. Then, with a sensation somewhere between a full body toothache and a mind-blowing, toe-curling orgasm, the rest of my body followed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You know the feeling of release when you&#039;re finally fully naked for the first time with a new lover? That&#039;s what it felt like. I felt free. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It’s hard to describe what happened after that. It’s not that I don’t remember what happened. I can’t find the words to describe it. My best guess is, as the changes penetrated into my brain, I lost the use of language. Ashley’s murmured reassurances became a buzz. This scared me more than anything else had. Was I losing my identity, the memories and skills and experiences that made me who I am? Until then, I could think of myself as a human in a cougar body. Now I was losing that, too,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I panicked and tried to run, but my four legs betrayed me. I couldn’t coordinate them, and fell painfully on my snout. Ashley let me go, and got down on her hands and knees. She shifted into a cougar herself. It was the first time I got to watch her shift since that night four weeks before. I had been a bit distracted then. I was amazed by how fluid it looked, compared to how it felt when I changed. After I regained my feet, she led me into the bushes. I stumbled at first, but soon walking on four legs seemed natural. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We spent the night prowling her ranch,. She taught me how to walk, run, pounce, and climb on four legs instead of two, how to use night vision, smell and hearing to navigate instead of stumbling around in the dark. Towards dawn, she brought down a yearling buck, and I tasted hot blood for the first time. It was wonderful. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then she led me back to the clearing by the creek where we had first changed. We made love in the dawn sunlight as we regained our humanity. Over the summer, she taught me how to be a cougar, without losing my identity in the cougar mind. Just as I will teach you. That was ten years ago. Now I&#039;ve fulfilled my part of the contract.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I finished telling my story, and looked down at the lovely olive-skinned, raven-haired coed, Murch U Class of 2013, that I still had pinned face down on my bed. With my weight on top of her, and my furred hands still gripping her wrists, she was as helpless as I had been when Ashley had tied me to her bed. I saw the fear in her teary eyes, and smelled her blood from where I had nipped the back of her neck with my fangs, the scratches on her wrists from my claws, and the lacerations that the barbs on my felid cock had left inside her. “I’m sorry I hurt you, dear. Please, don&#039;t do anything stupid. I don’t want to have to kill you.”&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;div&gt;Hi. I created an account some months back under the name &amp;quot;Triskelynx,&amp;quot; and submitted a story, but now I can&#039;t find it. Anyway: here&#039;s a sequel to it:&lt;br /&gt;

:It was probably lost in the great crash. Sorry for the loss, but there is nothing we can do - the hard drives themselves went belly-up and we were unable to recover the data - as the best backups were stored in that non-mirrored, linear raid array, we had to use a second-best. Which was several years old. We&#039;ve now got a much better backup system running and if we happen to have another crash like that we won&#039;t lose more than a weeks worth of information. -- [[User:ShadowWolf|ShadowWolf]] 02:42, 3 December 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;Author&#039;s note: This is a sequel to a story that got lost in the crash. I&#039;ll have to recreate it at some point.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the missing story, a pair of college students went to see a movie. Instead, they met Aphrodite, who offered one of them a gift. He asked for better understanding of women, and was changed into one for a semester. Then she turned to the other, and said she&#039;d give him a boon as well, but someone else had plans for him. This is his story.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There is a love scene in this story. I tried to make it serve the plot, and tried to keep it in the realm of erotica rather than porn. I hope you&#039;ll think I succeeded.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d appreciate any constructive advice anyone might want to offer.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
----&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Let us worship like the druids,&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;And drink fermented fluids,&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;And naked through the woo-ids.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;It&#039;s good enough for me!&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My girlfriend Jess and I were standing on a hillside on the edges of the Texas Hill Country. It was May first - Beltaine - a warm spring night, and we were skyclad, or naked. In front of us was a large flat-topped boulder with an embroidered altar cloth on it.  On the wine-colored cloth was a chalice, a knife and several candles. Jess was calling her Goddess as we started the ceremony. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Until a few months ago, I had been somewhat amused by Jess&#039;s choice of belief. Then I met the goddess Aphrodite and had watched her change my roommate into a girl. Since then, I have become a believer in magic. My roommate, Tom, now Tommie, had used some of the insights he, er, she had gained to hook me up with Jess. And that&#039;s how I ended up standing naked on a hillside, taking part in a neo-pagan ritual.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I listened as she finished her invocation and lit the Goddess candle. It was my turn to call the male half of the divinity. I began, rather nervously, to say the words I had rehearsed seveal times in my mind. Aphrodite had said that some other deity had plans for me. I  was sure that invoking a deity was asking for trouble. Still, I loved Jess, and she wanted me to be here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I mumbled something about the Lord of the Forest, Stag-king, Cernunnos, protector and father, asking him to join us and lend his power to our rite. I struck a match and lit the God&#039;s candle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Immediately, a surge of heat seared into my feet from the sandy soil. I tried to pick them up but could not. The heat traveled up my legs, and cramps in my calves and feet forced me onto my toes. Bones in my feet grated against each other. I looked down, and three of the toes on each feet were receding upwards. The other two were changing, darkening, hardening. It took me a few minutes to realize they were becoming hooves. Cloven deer hooves. I watched in horrified fascination as my feet grew longer, and the heat reshaped my ankles into hocks. Brown hair sprouted on my legs as they cramped and cracked. My shins shortened, and my thighs became powerful haunches. The heat traveled up my body until I felt like I was completely engulfed in flame.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
    &#039;&#039;(Is more detail needed here, or is it okay to leave some to the reader&#039;s imagination? -Triskie)&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At last, the burning stopped. From the waist down, I was a male elk. Above that, I was a man, a fit, muscular man, except for the impressive rack of antlers on my head.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An owl flew overhead, and I could feel its thoughts, focused on a mouse in the bushes on the of the side of the clearing. I realized that I could feel all the life around me - all the birds and animals, down to the invertebrates scurrying across the ground and burrowing beneath it. I could even feel the web of life sustained by the microbes in soil, plants and air. I stood and marveled at the intricacy of the pulsating, constantly changing interplay of life energies that surrounded us.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I threw back my head, and bugled the challenge of the stag elk whose antlers and hooves I wore. The coyotes on the hillside stopped their hunt and added their song to mine, as did the white tail deer in the valley thickets below us. A stallion on the ranch over the hill knelt to me. Even the military dogs on the Army camp on the horizon yelped and howled, confusing and alarming their handlers. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I was the Lord of the Forest, and I was magnificent. From horizon to horizon, every creature with enough intelligence enough to do so signaled its obeisance to me. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All creatures save one. Jess. She stood facing me, with a small smile, lips slightly parted, and a look in her eyes that said she knew just what to do with an uppity male. She stepped forward and ran one hand up over my muscled chest, barely touching the skin. With her other hand, she reached up, grasped an antler, and pulled my face down to meet hers. Our lips touched, open mouthed, and her tongue lightly ran over mine. She held my mouth to hers with a hand on the back of my neck, as her other ran down and massaged the elk bull&#039;s sheath between my legs. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We made love on our altar. Her fair skin glowed gold and white in the moonlight and candlelight. Her head was haloed by the pentacle embroidered on the altar cloth. She was every bit the Goddess to my God. I tried to be gentle, conscious of the size of my elk parts. She took me with a force that surprised me. A small part of my brain rebelled. After all, the head of my cock should be somewhere around her sternum. Then the rest of my brain said shut up, it&#039;s magic, and it need not follow the laws of the everyday world. We moaned loudly together as her orgasm brought me over the top. I lay down next to her, gathered her to me, and pulled the altar cloth over us as a blanket.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I woke up the next morning to a cloudy sunrise. The memory of last night&#039;s events came to me in a rush - the wonder of the magnitude and glory of the life surrounding us, and the sacred sex that followed. I grabbed my legs, unsure whether I hoped to feel human skin or elk hair.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I felt skin. It came with a deep sense of loss, mingled with relief. Then I realized my leg felt odd. Hard. Firm. I lifted up the altar cloth we were using. Instead of the scrawny body I had arrived with, I was toned and muscular.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A bluebird flew over us. I realized I had known it was going to before I saw or heard it. I didn&#039;t have the square mile awareness that I did last night, but I still had some of it. The same sense that told me about the bluebird told me that Jess was starting to wake up. She too had been blessed. Her body was toned and strong, yet quintessentially feminine. I woke her up with a kiss. We made love again as a soft, warm rain fell. After we finished, she reached up above my head, and handed me a perfect elk antler.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We completed our ritual and packed up our altar cloth and other implements. Then Jess and I gently dressed each other as we had undressed each other the night before. As we drove back to the Murchison U. campus, I wondered how to tell my dad I would not major in business like he wanted. Instead, I was going to major in ecology and minor in ancient religions. He wouldn&#039;t like it, but somehow I knew the entity that had possessed me the night before wanted it that way.&lt;br /&gt;
