Dark Desires [2/2]

After they waved at each other, Max proceeded towards his original destination; the pokemon center. A couple of minutes later, the building was already in sight.

"Huh, It does go faster that way," he mumbled before proceeding inside.

"Hi. Oh, it's you. Welcome back." the same nurse as before greeted.

"Oh, hey. Didn't know you were still working." Max told while getting at the counter.

"Unfortunately, yes. There are only two nurses here and we switch every twelve hours."

"Twelve? You two work on twelve-hour shifts?" Max exclaimed, quite shocked.

"Yes."

"Damn. You must be tired after each one."

"We are, but we both love our job, so it's not that terrible. Besides, we have plenty of opportunities to takes breaks to rest a bit."

"I hope, otherwise, you won't be able to make it through."

"True," the nurse snickered. "So, is there anything you need?"

"Oh yeah. My pokemon are hungry and I don't see any place here where they could eat, so I was wondering if you had some pokemon food I could buy."

"Of course. Every new trainer needs the basics to start their journey. What type of pokemon do you have?"

"Let's see; I have a braixen, a lopunny, a lucario, a mawile, a gardevoir, and a zoroark."

"Alright, I'll get what you need." the nurse informed before leaving through a door behind the counter."

"Thanks."

As he was waiting, Max then heard claw-on-floor noises coming from the hallway on his left. When he turned his head to see who or what was coming, he saw the female absol from before appearing.

"Oh, it's you. Hi again."

{Hi. I knew I recognized that voice.} she expressed while walking towards him.

"You do? From that pokemon rec room?" Max exclaimed, petting her when she was next to him.

{Yes. I have good hearing,} she replied humbly while lightly waving her tail.

"Like almost every pokemon, hehe. Sorry for leaving like I did earlier. Let's just say that given the situation-"

{No need to justify yourself, mister, I saw what happened. That lopunny is not a very nice pokemon.}

"He's mean?"

{Well, I wouldn't say 'mean', but he's really self-centered and cares little about others,} the absol explained.

"I see. Good thing Bonny didn't fall for him then."

{Is Bonny your lopunny friend?}

"Well, she's a bit more than a friend, but yeah."

{Oh, right,} the pokemon replied, blushing a bit. {So hem… I was wondering-}

"Here you go sir." the nurse interrupted, now back behind the counter.

"Give me a second," Max told before facing the nurse.

"Here you have a box for fire type, one for steel type, another one for psychic type, and one more for your lopunny. The last one can be eaten by both your lucario and zoroark." the nurse told him while presenting him five pokefood boxes."

"That's quite a lot."

"Almost every type of pokemon has their own diet. Having multiple types on your team can be tricky for that part. Some trainers avoid that problem by going with one or two types on their team."

"Not practical for battle. A guy that only has fire types in his team would be obliterated by someone that has one or two water type pokemon."

"Even though battles aren't only about the type, he sure would be in a tricky situation."

"True. So, how much for all five?"

"$25 please."

"Quite cheap," Max commented, taking out the money.

"Yes, but unfortunately, the quality comes with it. Since beginner trainers usually don't have much on them, we try to make the cheapest products as best as we can without lowering the quality too much. It's still very good food for your pokemon, but I would suggest you get them something else from time to time." the nurse explained after taking the money.

"Understood. Let's keep them for emergency snacks then."

"That would be a very good idea." the nurse agreed while putting the boxes in a plastic bag.

"Thanks."

Taking the bag, Max then looked at the absol again.

"Sorry for that. What were you about to say?"

{N-nevermind.} she answered before shyly looking away.

"Come on, tell me," Max insisted.

{… Can we… talk outside?} she shyly proposed.

"Sure," Max responded before both of them headed towards the exit.

"Have a good evening." the nurse wished.

"Thanks, you too." Max wished back just before getting outside. "What is it?" he asked Trisha after stopping in front of the building.

{Will you… leave soon?}

"You mean, from this town? Well, as soon as our tent is ready, which should be tomorrow, we'll leave. Why?"

{Because… I…} she started while getting awfully red and unable to look at Max straight in the eyes. {I was wondering if… you know.}

"Hem… not really," Max replied, not really sure about what she meant.

{Well… I know that pokemon is kind of your thing, so…}

"… Yeah…" Max responded, a bit confused.

{So I was wondering if I… could… too,} she confessed, shaking a bit.

"If you could? Are you talking about…" Max guessed, having a wild idea of what she meant.

{If it's okay with you that is. You know, being alone all the time tends to make you a bit… lonely sometimes.}

"… Yeah."

{I don't want to bother you or force you into anything. I just want… to experience it at least once in my life,} she told a bit sadly.

"You never… even with another absol?"

{I'm practically here since I was just a little pup, so no, I didn't really get that chance.}

"And with the others here that are always avoiding you…"

{… Yeah. You get the idea.}

"I see," Max replied, scratching the back of his head. "Well, I really wish I could help you, but my relationship with my companions, one in particular, is a bit tense at the moment. They… don't really like me… doing it with other pokemon. I'm sorry."

{… I… understand. I should have guessed since you're a trainer. Surely you were already taken by one of them,} the absol bemoaned.

"You… can say that."

{… Nevermind then. Forget about what I asked.} she sadly replied before heading inside the pokemon center.

Sighing while rubbing his face and feeling extremely bad, Max heading towards the park where Bonny was waiting for him.

{Took you long enough.} Bonny teased, still on the same bench when she saw Max arrive.

"Yeah, I guess," Max answered back while sitting next to her, not feeling well. "I bought us some food boxes." he continued while showing her the bag. "It may be not the best, but it will do when there will no other alternative."

{That's great, but are you okay?} Bonny asked, quite worried.

"More or less. I kind of had to be mean to someone that didn't deserve it."

{Mean? How so? I can't imagine you being mean to someone.}

"Yet, I did."

{Care to elaborate?}

Before speaking, Max let out a heavy and almost angry sigh.

"Remember that absol I spoke to at the pokemon center, creating the problem between us?"

{I don't think 'she' was per se the one that made… n-nevermind. Yeah, I remember.}

"Well, I had to rebuff her."

{Rebuff? About what?}

"… She's a very lonely absol, so she asked me if she could be for a moment, with me." Max hinted.

{Oh, I see,} Bonny replied, getting what he meant. {By the look on your face, she didn't take it very well.}

"… Not really. I could almost taste her sadness."

At that, Bonny looked at Max, who was looking a bit miserable and staring at the ground. Being the nice and kind lopunny she is, she didn't like that one bit.

{… You know what…} Bonny started before jumping down from the bench. {Come here,} she continued before taking his hand and began to pull.

"What is it? Where are you pulling me?"

{I think we have some apologies to do.} she told while pulling him towards where he had just come from.

"I… maybe." Max conceded, not resisting.

A couple of minutes later, both of them were inside the pokemon center once again.

"Oh, hi again. Did you forget something?" the nurse inquired.

"Hem…"

{Ask her where she is.} Bonny commanded.

"Actually, I'm looking for Trisha, the absol."

"The one that was looking sad after you left?" she almost accused.

"… Yeah. She didn't want me to leave, so I thought that maybe I could stay with her a bit longer."

"Very thoughtful and she seems to have taken a liking to you. She's probably outside, where she usually is."

"Okay, thanks." Max thanked her before Bonny began to pull him again. "You seem a bit eager to apologize. It's not really your fault, you know."

Not responding, Bonny kept pulling while staying quiet until they arrived at the pokemon rec room. When they got in, they weren't really surprised to see a lot less pokemon all around as some of them probably went to bed. Then, as they were proceeding towards the door that was leading outside, Bonny saw Koko on a couch, flirting with another female.

{What a jerk.} Bonny muttered angrily.

"What was that?" Max asked.

{Nothing,} she answered coldly while pulling harder.

When outside, Bonny quickly looked around and saw the absol lying on the ground in a corner. Hearing their steps, the absol raised her head as they were walking towards her. Not knowing what to do, the absol only stared at them when they were in front of her.

{Hi there Miss, I think you already met my master, right?} Bonny greeted.

{Y-yes,} she answered nervously.

{Well, he kind of has something to tell you, so do you mind if we go to a more 'private' place?}

{… Sure.} the absol responded nervously.

{Good. Come with us then.} Bonny told, motioning her to follow before heading inside with her tailing them.

"Private? Isn't that a bit much?"

{I want a place that you won't be disturbed since, well, you have a lot to discuss.}

"You? What do you mean by 'you'?" Max inquired, getting suspicious.

{I'll explain when we'll be there.}

"… You can be really weird when you want to Bonny, you know that?"

{I do.} she responded before getting inside.

Through the building, Bonny then leads Max and the absol towards the dormitory. When they were in, they walked between bunk beds with some of them already occupied until they arrived at the door on the other side. Passing it, Bonny then saw four doors across a small hallway, two on the left and two on the right.

"Where are we?" Max asked a bit puzzled while looking around.

{Just be quiet and follow.} Bonny ordered as they were proceeding through the hallway.

Guessing it was the 'rooms' Koko talked about last time she was here, she inspected the doors to see which one they could take. Unfortunately, the first two doors had a little card on the doorknobs saying 'Do not disturb'. Luckily, the two last ones were looking unoccupied as they didn't have the small card. After opening one door, Bonny saw a not-so-large room only filled with a pretty thick and huge bed, almost occupying half of the room. After pulling Max inside and letting the absol get in, Bonny closed the door behind them before laying her back against it.

"Care to explain now?" Max demanded, facing her with crossed arms.

{I have to admit that I'm confused as well,} Trisha followed, sitting next to Max.

{What do you think, master? What could be the reason that I brought both of you to a room where the only furniture is, a bed, apparently.}

"Wait… are you… implying what I think you're implying?" Max guessed, looking at Bonny suspiciously.

{Good guess, master,} Bonny confirmed with a grin.

"But… what about what we just talked about? I told you that I won't-"

{I don't remember agreeing to that,} Bonny interrupted.

"… Are you serious?"

{You know I'm always serious when it comes to mating.}

{M-mating?} the absol exclaimed nervously, a bit afraid after understanding what was going on.

"Come on Bonny, I know she's cute and all, but I think you're going a bit overboard here."

{Am I? Are you telling me that she doesn't interest you?} Bonny accused, also crossing her arms.

Briefly looking at her, Max couldn't help but agree that he did indeed find her very cute, even though she was showing a rather uncomfortable face right now.

"Being interested or not is not what matters at the moment."

{Is it now? Well, maybe we should ask her then what she thinks about it.} Bonny replied, looking at the absol.

"What? You know that…" Max started before stopping mid-sentence.

{I know what? That she will surely agree? I think we both know that she will,} Bonny retorted mischievously.

{Can I know what you guys are talking about?} the absol demanded nervously and impatiently.

"… Bonny here wants us to… well, go on with what we talked about earlier."

{… You mean…}

"Yeah, that," Max confirmed, almost darting the lopunny with his eyes.

{What? From my point of view, both of you want it.} Bonny defended.

"It doesn't work like this Bonny. Besides, from everyone, why would 'you' want that? I still have what we talked about in my head."

{Look, I know what I said, but how can we leave tomorrow knowing that this poor absol never had the chance to see how awesome you are?} Bonny justified. {You said it yourself Master, she's a very lonely pokemon, so why not do that for her?}

"… I…" Max mumbled while looking at the absol, not sure of what to do.

{I don't want to be trouble here. You don't have to do this.} Trisha expressed.

{You want his 'company', right?} Bonny quoted.

{Well…}

{Don't try to lie, he told me.}

{… K-kind of,} the dark pokemon answered shyly, looking away.

{Then why hesitate now that you can?}

{…}

{And master, I know that you know that you want it too.}

"…"

{So, what will happen now is that I'm gonna head to the motel while you two are gonna have fun here.}

"What about those? The girls must be hungry." Max pointed out, showing his bag.

{I can carry them.} Bonny replied before taking the bag. {Now master, do as usual and be nice.} she continued before looking at the female absol. {If he ever changes his mind and chickens out, you let me know, okay?}

{… O-okay.} the white pokemon answered, not really wanting to argue against her.

{Good. See you later than master. Oh, I think this will be useful.} Bonny commented while taking the 'Do not disturb' card before exiting the room.

A few seconds later, Max then let out a loud sigh.

"That one sometimes," he grumbled, rubbing his eyes.

{She's… quite something.}

"You tell me, and even more than you think. She's quite hard to get actually."

{I didn't know someone was… that open, eager even, to share her mate with… someone.}

"Me neither, girl." Max followed, sitting on the edge of the bed.

{… So, what now?}

"… I don't know. It's your call I guess. If I decided, I'm gonna hear from her for a while."

{My call? Does that mean… you don't… want to?} the dark type replied, looking a bit sad.

"It's not that. It's just… things are a bit weird right now. Bonny being jealous of me being with another, and now pushing me in the arms of the said another, matter of speech."

{…}

"But… since you kind of already asked for this and that Bonny give her consent, and by consent I mean almost forcing me…"

{If it's trouble, I don't want to anymore.} the absol told, even though it was obvious that she was lying.

"I guess it's not anymore."

{Are you sure?}

Finding her strangely reluctant, Max then stared a bit at the absol.

"… Are you… scared?" Max asked with a grin.

{S-scared? Me? Never,} she replied a bit haughtily.

"Why don't you get here next to me then?"

{M-maybe I will.} she nervously retorted before jumping on the bed, sitting next to Max with a fast heartbeat.

"Hehe, you remind me of one of my team, always with that proud attitude."

{Who are we without proudness?}

"Haha, a nobody I suppose."

{E-exactly.}

"But why asking me something like that though, if you're scared."

{I… want it, but I don't know what to do or to expect.}

"It's okay, Miss Trisha. I promise I'll be gentle." Max reassured while touching her, gently rubbing her soft fur.

{T-thanks, but, are you s-sure? I... never did anything like this before.}

"I know, you already said that."

{Sorry, must be my nervousness.}

"Everyone is nervous at first, don't worry."

{Still.}

"Relax, there's nothing to be afraid of. Just let your body speak for you and it should be alright."

{A-alright.}

"Why don't we start by laying down." Max proposed.

{O-okay,} she replied before laying on her belly.

"Hem… I was thinking about laying on your back."

{On my back?} she repeated before sitting up.

"Why yes."

{… Okay. It's not really a position I'm used to.} she told while clumsily getting on her back.

"You'll see, it's a very practical position," Max assured before crawling over her.

However, Max couldn't help but stare in awe when he saw her on her back with her four paws in the air and slightly bent, looking at him in anticipation and pretty much defenseless.

{Is it… painful?} she inquired, getting anxious.

"No. For humans and some pokemon, it can for the first time, but I think it shouldn't for you."

{… Okay.}

"Are you ready?"

{Not really.}

"Just like I said, let your body do the work for you."

{I'll try.}

"Good girl." Max praised while rubbing the side of her cute face.

{But… where do we start?}

"Well, every fun time begins with some kissing."

{Kissing…}

"You know what it is?"

{Yes.}

"You're up for that?"

{Maybe. I've… never done it.}

"I see. Well, back to the basics then. Just follow my lead."

With her heart racing, the absol saw the human moving his head closer to hers until his lips pressed against hers, almost making her flinch in surprise. Even though it was odd at first, the absol quickly began to like it and tried to return it by mimicking Max's movements. A couple of seconds later, Max broke the kiss and stared at the dark pokemon.

"How was it?"

{It felt… really good.} the absol answered, slightly getting aroused.

"Great. Ready to go up a notch?"

{I… think so.}

"Awesome. Again, follow my lead." Max reassured going for another kiss.

Almost immediately returning it, the dark-type pokemon was once again surprised when she felt the human's tongue pressing against her lips. Not knowing what to do, she remained static until Max understood that she wasn't getting it.

"… You have to let me in Trisha."

{L-let you in? Where?}

"Just open your mouth when you feel my tongue, okay?"

{… Okay.} Trisha complied, finding the idea a bit weird.

Even though she wasn't sure about the thing, she did as told and opened her mouth after Max began to kiss her again and pressed his tongue against her lips. Then, she almost panicked when she felt his tongue invading her mouth, but tried to keep calm since she trusted him. Luckily, she did well as the only thing he was doing was to explore every corner of her mouth, finding it a bit weird, but oddly arousing over time. Not disliking it after a moment, she even tried to use her own tongue against his, making the thing a lot lewder. Getting quite excited, Trisha had put her front paws on Max's chest and was very lightly clenching them in pleasure from time to time, making Max barely feeling her claws. After Max broke it again, a strand of saliva was connecting their lips with Max staring intently into the pokemon's eyes.

{Is this… really how humans… do things?} the absol asked slightly lustfully.

"Mostly, yes. Why? You like?"

{… I love it.} she replied with a small lewd smile.

"Good, because there's more that is coming up."

{You were right, there was nothing to be afraid of.}

"Told you. How about you feel real pleasure now?"

{Real pleasure? Because it was-}

"Just the warm-up." Max interrupted.

{Damn! Then yes, I'm ready.}

"Quick to make up your mind I see."

{I'm a simple girl that knows what she likes.}

"Atta girl, just the way I like them." Max praised before going for another kiss.

This time, Trisha was the one that pushed her tongue inside Max's mouth and initiate the making out. Gladly fighting off her tongue, Max pressed a hand on her soft chest before starting to fondle her. After making sure she was comfortable, Max began to move down south slowly. When he reached her belly, Trisha slightly flinched before putting her two hind legs together.

"… Scared?" Max teased.

{A… little. I've never been touched there before since it's a very sensitive and embarrassing place…}

"You want me to be gentle?"

{Y-yes, please.}

"Don't worry, that was already on the plan."

{… Thanks,} she thanked before shyly spreading her hind legs a little.

After they resumed their make-out session, Max continued to where he left and kept going down on her until meeting something soft, warm, and a bit moist.

{Ahh!} the pokemon moaned after breaking the kiss. {You're… there.}

"I can see that. Looks like you did enjoy what I did."

{I… do. It's… quite obvious that you know what you're doing.}

"Well, not wanting to brag, but having four girls to please, some skills are bound to appear."

{F-four?}

"Yeeaah. My team is composed of females only and they all love me, or at least, like me a little, so…"

{… I see.}

"Anyway, we should focus more on what's important, don't you think?" Max replied before starting to play with her tiny pleasure ball.

{Aahh!} Trisha moaned loudly. {Yes, you're right.}

"I hope the others won't mind the noises."

{Don't… worry. The walls… haa… are soundproof.}

"Good to know." Max expressed before going slightly rougher on her, making her moans louder.

{Anyway… everyone knows… what… is supposed… to happen… in this room,} she hardly told between pleasured whines.

"Good point."

With his fingers coating in slippery juice, Max was from time to time inserting one finger inside the pokemon's flower before focusing on her clit again.

{It… feels… so good, mister.}

"Does it? Do you want me to go faster?"

{Yes, please.}

"Here we go," Max replied before doing as said.

With even louder moans while having her head strongly pushing against the bed's pillow and closed eyes, Trisha began to be overwhelmed by pleasure as her claws were sinking more into Max's chest, but luckily, still not hard enough to hurt him.

{I… feel… something… coming.} Trisha warned, almost on the verge of hyperventilating.

"Just let yourself go. Trust me, you will like it."

Not even trying to contain herself, Trisha was moaning as loud as she could while feeling her first orgasm coming at every passing second. Then, a moment later, it hit her like a boulder.

{I'm… feeling IT!} Trisha screamed ecstatically with her body going all stiff.

When the bliss moment was done, she was looking at Max with slightly accelerated breathing.

"How does an orgasm feel?"

{Really… really good. I get it now why the others always talk about mating.}

"Oh, but we haven't mated yet."

{Oh, yeah, that's right. I'm still a bit nervous about it, but I have to admit that I can't wait to experience it.}

"Getting more confident?"

{In you, yes. I now see that you're very gentle and patient with me, so I'm feeling a lot more comfortable around you.}

"You're seeing this just now?" Max teased, grinning a bit.

{Well, we haven't really… done this before now, so…}

"Hehe, I know, I'm just teasing you. Well then, I guess it means that you're ready for the main event."

{Yes, but stay gentle please.}

"Of course, but let me just get rid of this first," Max said before starting to remove his pants.

{That would make things easier indeed.} the absol commented.

Then, upon seeing the human's erected shaft, her eyes went a bit wider in surprise.

{Will… all of it… go inside…}

"Well, it doesn't have to be 'all' of it, but mostly, yes. Why? Is it a bit much for you?"

{I don't know, but it sure is a bit bigger than I thought.}

"Why does everyone think I have a small one?" Max complained, sounding offended.

{I didn't mean to say it that way. It's just that I never saw a human's… 'thing' before.}

"I see. Well, we can still stop here if you think you can't handle it."

{No. Whatever the size or shape, I want to finish what we started.}

"Quite noble of you actually. Okay then, but feel free to tell me to stop if you ever feel pain or discomfort, okay?"

{No problem. You'll be the first one to know.}

"Good," Max replied before positioning himself.

When ready, Max was over Trisha with his hips a few inches away from her rear while holding her hind legs in his arms. When he looked at her, he didn't notice at first how drenched she was due to being too busy looking at her face when he was fingering her.

"My my, you sure really looking forward to it."

{I-it's your fault,} Trisha accused, a bit embarrassed.

"Can't argue with that." Max conceded before starting to rub his shaft against her entrance.

{It's… very warm.}

"'That', is your fault." Max accused back with a grin. "Alright, here I go then," he added before gently pushing it in.

{Hmm…} Trisha moaned lowly.

After his tip was in, Max kept pushing until he was able to go all the way in upon touching the bottom, making her gasp in the process. Like he expected, her vagina was pretty narrow but with a big bump at the end, stimulating his tip while being oddly very narrow at the entrance.

"Does it hurt?" Max asked.

{No… but it feels a bit weird, having something there.}

"I can imagine. You will really start feeling it as soon as I start moving."

{Okay. I'm… ready.}

After Max nodded, he began to move backward until only his tip was in before diving in once more.

{Ahh!}

"… How does it feel?" Max inquired after a few hits.

{Better and better. It starts to really feel good.}

"Good. Tell me whenever you feel ready for me to go faster."

{Okay.}

For the first few minutes, Max was going rather slowly for Trisha's comfort with her letting out low but constant moans. However, he soon really wanted to go faster and harder but had to contain himself for the absol's respect. Luckily, he didn't have to wait very long for that.

{You… can go faster if you want to.} Trisha allowed.

"Thanks," Max replied before going faster and a bit stronger.

With the absol getting louder, she seems to also be getting hotter inside, increasing Max's pleasure faster than before. Unfortunately, all that foreplay and excitement accumulation had made him on edge, and was nearing his climax already after a little while.

"I'm sorry Trisha… but I won't be able to hold on much longer."

{Go… ahead… I… don't mind.} the dark pokemon moaned loudly.

Unable to control himself anymore, Max went a bit rougher on her once again, wanting more and more pleasure. Luckily, it didn't seem to bother Trisha at all. In fact, she seems to enjoy it even more as her body began to get twitchy.

{I'm… feeling it again,} she warned.

Upon feeling Max exploding inside her love tunnel, the dark pokemon came as well and crushed Max with her orgasmic contractions, enhancing his orgasm. After his last spurt and pushing as hard as he could, Max's stiff muscles went back to normal with her slightly panting under him.

"And that's how humans mate," Max told before letting himself fall next to her on his back.

{That… was… amazing,} she commented, feeling light-headed.

"Indeed. You did very well for a first-timer."

{Well, you pretty much did all the work.}

"Hehe, true, but you followed the flow very well."

{Hihi, I guess,} the absol giggled.

"… Well, it's not that I don't enjoy your company, but maybe I should get back to our motel before the girls start getting worried."

Then, as Max was about to sit up, Trisha pinned him down with a hug.

{Please, can you stay with me a bit longer?} she asked before tightening her embrace.

"Hem… yeah, I guess."

{If you don't mind that is.}

"No, it's okay. It's not like I'm in a hurry or anything. Bonny knows where I am, so they should be okay anyway."

{Thanks. Thanks a lot.} she thanked warmly while shoving her face against Max's neck.

"No problem," he replied, gently petting the pokemon's head.

{… Say, I was wondering, what is a 'trainer'?} she asked.

"Well, it's a human that makes friends with pokemon and travels with them. That's how I see it at least."

{Traveling huh? It must be great.}

"It is. It allows us to meet people or pokemon like you."

{… Yeah, it really must be great,} she repeated, nuzzling Max more strongly.

Further in the town, Bonny was now back to the motel.

{Welcome back Bonny.} Dusk greeted as she and May were on the bed when she saw the lopunny opening and passing the door.

{Hi.} she responded while closing the door behind her.

{Feeling better?} Aurora asked, still on the armchair.

{Yeah. Master is really good at cheering me up.} Bonny replied while dropping the bag next to the bed.

{Figures.} Aurora commented, rolling her eyes.

{What is that?} May asked, noticing the bag.

{A little something Master got for us.} Bonny answered while taking the boxes out.

{Yay! Food!} the little mawile exclaimed.

{Yeah, but master told me that they weren't the best, so it might not be that tasty.}

{I don't mind, I'm starving.}

{Alright. Here's one for me, one for Dusk, one for… Jade, I guess and one for… both you and Aurora I suppose.} Bonny enumerated before giving a box to May.

{Awesome.} May exclaimed before starting to open her box.

{You aren't gonna eat?} Dusk inquired when she saw Bonny directly heading towards the bathroom.

{I will don't worry. I just need a shower very badly, if you know what I mean.} she told before disappearing behind the door of the bathroom.

{Yep, he can't keep it in his pants for more than a day.} Aurora grumbled.

{Why not? Especially if it makes her feel better.} Dusk retorted.

{… I guess,} she replied nonchalantly.

Almost half an hour later, Max was still in the bed of the mating room with Trisha still hugging him. However, he was starting to hear some snoring for a moment now and thought that maybe it was the time to leave. Very carefully, Max managed to slide off her grasp without waking her up. After putting his pants on again, Max looked at the sleeping absol one last time.

(Eh, how cute.) he thought before heading outside.

After passing by the almost empty pokemon rec room, Max walked through the hall entrance, which was empty for the moment, before heading outside. There, he took his pokedex out to see what time it was.

"8:45 huh. I'm quite hungry, but I wonder if some restaurants are still open. Even fast-food will do." he mumbled after putting away the pokedex.

Walking down the streets, Max was looking for a place to eat for a couple of minutes now without finding anything.

"It was to be expected when it's this late," Max muttered before taking a random turn.

{Hi there little pup.}

"HOLY SH…" Max bawled after his heart almost popped out of his chest.

With crossed arms and in her human form, Luna had her back against the wall of the building next to the turn, almost like if she was waiting for him.

{Did I scare you?}

"Fuck yeah you did. Fuck." Max growled with one hand on his chest.

{Hihi, sorry then} Luna giggled.

"I guess it's your thing, sneaking up on people and pouncing on them."

{'Pouncing' you could be a good idea.} she conceded with a wink. {But I wasn't really sneaking on you. I was passing nearby and I smelled only you, so I wanted to see how you were doing.}

"Well, besides nearly having a heart attack, I'm hungry. I was about to get food for myself."

{I see.}

"But I was not very lucky since all the restaurants seem closed at this time."

{Yeah, some human places for food close before it gets dark.}

"Unfortunately. I know however that some stay open pretty late."

{Want me to help you with that?}

"You could? I mean, yes you can, but I mean there is?"

Before answering, Luna lifted her nose a bit before smelling around her.

{I smell cooked foods in this direction.} Luna informed before pointing behind Max.

"Great. Now that you're here, do you want to come? Unless you already ate."

{Hmm… the little pup invites me to a date. How… enticing.} she answered while looking at him with a semi-lewd grin.

"It's not a date. Just two friends going for food."

{Ow, that hurt.} Luna queered {But I guess being only friends is a good start.} she continued with a smile.

"… Whatever." Max retorted after sighing, knowing she was only messing with him. "Right behind you then."

{Come on now little pup, there's a place and time for things like that,} she jested some more before passing next to him.

"Pffff." Max breathed before starting to follow her.

{So? Had any 'fun' lately?} Luna asked while walking.

"I'm assuming you're already aware, so yeah, it was quite nice."

{How was she?}

"Very docile since it was her first time."

{I see. You like it soft and smooth then.}

"More or less. Anyway, why are we talking about this again?"

{Why not? Is it bad for me to try to know my little pup a bit more?}

"No, but I wonder with what that kind of information will help you."

{Who knows?} Luna responded nonchalantly.

"I was hoping that you did," Max replied after rolling his eyes.

While chattering, it took them almost half an hour before they arrived in front of a restaurant that wasn't closed yet.

{There it is.} Luna announced.

"Looks nice. Before entering, I was wondering how we will socialize without you speaking. There will be a couple of humans in there, so if you don't want your cover being roasted…"

{Like usual, I'll do my mute human impression, but nothing prevents me from talking lowly if we're far from other humans.}

"… It could work. Well, I hope it will."

{Don't be so pessimistic. Let's go.} the zoroark told before heading towards the restaurant.

Slightly sighing, Max followed her until they were both insides. In the entrance hall, there was a sign saying 'please, let us place you'.

{How nice, they choose a place for us.} Luna commented lowly.

"That's pretty much how restaurant's service works."

"Hi! A place for two?" a waitress asked that had joined them a minute later.

"Yes, please."

"Follow me."

An instant later, both Max and Luna were sitting on benches, as far from the other customers as possible.

{Pretty for a human place.} Luna whispered.

"Yeah, restaurants tend to get fancy as much as possible to attract people."

{It also makes things more romantic,} Luna added seductively while looking at Max.

"You love to tease with that, don't you?"

{I don't know what you're talking about,} the zoroark replied nonchalantly, feigning ignorance.

"Sure you don't."

Before any of them could talk again, another waitress arrived next to their table.

"Hi. We wish you a great evening." she greeted while handing them the menu.

"Thanks," Max responded shortly before she left them. "I forget to ask, but what do you eat? They only serve human food here."

{Same as you, meat.}

"Good, because I know that pokemon can have a very specific diet."

{Well, since I'm a dark type, I usually feed upon souls, but meat will do fine today.}

Upon saying that, Max then looked at Luna with an almost creeped-out face.

{Hehe, just kidding little pup.} Luna laughed lowly.

"I… knew that." Max retorted, almost hiding behind the menu.

{Hehe…} Luna chuckled. {Is it me or are you a bit scared of me?}

"Me? Scared? Sure, I'm just a little pussy that is scared of a kind and nice dark type like you." Max answered sarcastically.

{Hm hmm,} Luna hummed lowly.

Then, as Max was hiding behind the menu, he felt a three-clawed paw pressing against his inner thigh and gently rubbing it.

"What… are you doing?" Max demanded embarrassingly while peeking the top of his head above the menu.

{I don't know what you're talking about?} Luna replied nonchalantly while seductively looking at him with her chin resting on one hand and a smile.

With the rubbing being constant, it however began to slowly get higher.

"S-stop it," Max whispered with a red face.

{Want to stop me yourself?} she answered back with a mischievous grin.

Unable to retort, Max found himself powerless against the paw that was slowly and dangerously getting near his manhood. Then, as he was grasping the menu quite strongly, Luna stopped at maybe half an inch before touching his member.

{Haha, you're quite something little pup,} Luna snickered before withdrawing her paw. {You didn't even try to stop me or move away. I didn't know you were an easy-to-get type of human.}

"S-shut up," Max growled before hiding behind the menu again, making Luna unable to contain a small laugh.

{I can't hold a grudge against you though. I mean, I'm quite the exceptional specimen.}

"Yeah, you 'are' an exceptional specimen."

{I hope you don't mean it in a bad way.}

"Of course not."

Even if he was sounding sincere, Luna didn't entirely believe him but decided that it was enough teasing, for now.

"… So… have you decided what you will eat yet?" Max asked, noticing the she didn't even open her menu.

{I already told you that I eat meat.}

"I know, but what kind of meat?"

{The tastiest one.} Luna replied, making Max sigh desperately.

"I'll have to order for you Luna and I don't know what 'you' find tasty. You really should choose what you want in there." Max explained, pointing at her menu.

{You know that I can't read human language, right?}

"… Oh, right. Sorry," Max apologized before Luna giggled a bit. "… Will a juicy steak do?" he proposed after reading the meat section.

{Is it tasty?}

"I don't know, but probably."

{Okay then.}

"Good. To be honest, you kind of gave me the desire to go with meat as well, so I'll take the same thing," he told after dropping the menu.

{Well, I can be very persuasive when I want to, so no big surprise.} she shared with a seductive look.

"Really?" Max replied, feigning not being interested.

{Maybe I'll show you someday.}

"We'll see." he retorted, avoiding Luna's gaze.

{Hihi, the more time I spend with you, the more I think I made the right decision. Our time together looks very promising and a lot of fun.}

"Yeah, well, I'm not a stuck-up bitch, so surely you won't be bored with me."

{I can already tell.}

Shortly after, the waitress from before arrived at their table.

"Ready to order?" she asked with her pad and pen in her hands.

"Yes. Two of your biggest steak meals, please."

"Sure. Any drinks?"

"Hem… water?" Max told while looking at Luna, at which she answered with a nod. "Yeah, two glasses of water, please."

"Got it. It shouldn't take too long," she informed before leaving them.

"… I didn't really check the prices, but I hope it won't cost too much."

{You don't have to do this if you think you can't afford it.}

"Nah, don't worry. As long as I have enough for the tent tomorrow, there's nothing to be worried about."

{If you say so. I can't really stop you from doing what you want.}

"Nope," Max assured, looking around. "… It seems that the place is about to close soon. The place is almost empty."

{Most humans are about to go to sleep at this time of the day.}

"What about you Luna? I'm guessing you're a nocturnal type of pokemon."

{Well guessed.}

"It wasn't hard since you're a dark-type and that you look like a werewolf."

{Werewolf?}

"Yeah, you know, a human/wolf hybrid that appears only on full moons."

{Hm… it's vaguely reminding me of something. I may have heard about it, but not much. Care to tell me more about it?}

"No problem."

For the rest of the evening, Max and Luna talked about a lot of stuff and learned to know each other a little. Obviously, Luna didn't really talk about herself as they mostly talked about human and pokemon beliefs, fiction, and myths. Max also talked about himself a bit, but not much either.

"… and the worst part about it is that I was framed for it. I tell you, it was the last time I took care of someone else's child."

{At least you made sure the human kid was safe, which is very respectable and lovable.}

"Well, just because I don't like kids doesn't mean that I'll mistreat them."

{You don't? From what I've heard, it seems that you have quite the paternal fiber in you. I like that.}

"If you say so," Max replied while looking at the time. "Well, I guess it's time to call it off for the day."

{Too bad human sleeps at night. I wouldn't have minded staying here a bit longer.}

"How about we postpone that for another time then?"

{Regular dating with a nice-looking human? I guess I can work with that,} she replied seductively.

"Who knows, maybe I'll be able to get us further in the long term." Max joked while both of them stood up from the bench.

{Keep trying hard and maybe you will,} Luna coaxed while briefly rubbing his chin.

"Ahem." Max coughed lowly. "Let's go," he told with a red face.

Giggling, Luna then followed Max to the hall entrance counter. After paying, they headed outside.

"Well, I think after paying for the tent tomorrow, I'll be officially broke.

{Sorry. Maybe it wasn't that much of a good idea to invite me there,} Luna apologized.

"It's always a good idea to please a lady," Max replied as they were walking back towards the motel.

{Hihi, you're becoming more and more irresistible little pup.} Luna complemented before briefly rubbing Max's hair.

"What can I say, I am irresistible." Max boasted.

As Luna was giggling, her smile quickly faded away when she looked in front of her.

{… Maybe we should take another path,} Luna proposed after stopping.

"Huh? Why?" Max inquired while looking towards where she was glaring.

He then saw the scrubs gang Luna and Dusk met earlier in the day that was chilling next to a metallic fence next to the road. At first glance, there were more than when Luna first encountered them.

"Well well, look who came back." one of them said as they were walking in their direction.

"You know them?" Max asked with his eyes locked on them.

{More or less.} Luna answered lowly before they were in hearing distance.

"And who's that? Your little boyfriend? He really looks like a wimp, especially next to you."

"And who the fuck are you?" Max blurted.

"None of your business and watch your words."

When they were close to them, Max quickly counted nine of them.

"And you expect me to listen?"

"We're only here for her, so if you don't want to get caught in the aftermath, then yes," the scrub threatened while eyeing Luna.

"Like hell, I will-"

As Max was moving to get between Luna and the scrub, Luna put an arm on his chest and pushed him back.

"Looks like your girlfriend has more brain than you. She probably has more balls too." he insulted before he and the others start laughing.

"Luna…" Max muttered, looking at the zoroark.

Instead of saying anything, Luna looked at him while shaking her head.

"I heard that you humiliated one of our guys by tossing him in a trash can, isn't it? It's a classic, I must admit. However, we don't take that kind of attitude here, especially against one of us. So here's what's gonna happen; if you want your pretty face and your shrimp's life to stay intact, you're gonna come with us and make it up to us for what you did," the guy announced.

"You fuckers!" Max snarled, still being hold in place by Luna.

"I suggest that you accept."

After glaring menacingly at him a moment, Luna surprisingly nodded.

"What? Are you serious Luna?" Max demanded, shocked.

While giving him a reassuring smile, Luna petted Max's head briefly before facing him again.

"Good decision. Let's go over there," the scrub told before motioning Luna to follow him to a nearby back alley.

With the group following the first one, Max wanted to follow them but was stopped by two of them that stayed at the entrance.

"Luna, please! You don't have to do this." Max blurted, looking between the two.

After giving him one last reassuring smile, Luna disappeared into the back alley with the rest of the group.

"… Fuck." Max cursed, grabbing his head while walking in a circle.

"Relax, wimp. If it can reassure you, they won't hurt her, much." one of the two said that were guarding the entrance before both of them laughed.

Trying to calm down, Max took deep breathes, but to no avail.

"You fucking son of a-"

Then, as Max was about to jump on them, Max heard a scream coming from the back alley.

"What the fuck is that?" one of the group in the back alley growled.

"Holy shit!" Screamed another one.

As the two in front of him turned to see what was going on, Max heard more screams mixed with some kind of wolf or dog loud growls. Quickly, the growls and the screams got louder with Max now starting to hear fighting noises of some sort. With angry and ferocious growls, Max heard painful and fearful human screams and saw two of them running away from the back alley.

"SHE'S A MONSTER!" one of them yelled.

Max didn't have the time to see correctly but thought he saw one bleeding a bit.

"What the fuck is happening in there?" one of the two in front of Max demanded.

After looking at each other, the two dashed into the back alley. Before they could get in, they got knocked out on the ground by a flying scrub that had landed on them. After they quickly got up, both of them dashed in the opposite direction. As Max was dashing towards the back alley entrance as well, the rest of the group were running away, screaming with some bleeding quite a lot. Briefly looking at them, Max calculated that all of them had run away, at which Max supposed that only Luna was in the back alley. At the corner of the entrance, Max slowly and carefully peeked through the passage with half of his face. A bit too dark to see correctly, Max could however hear some claws clicking against the concrete floor coming towards him. When close enough, Max saw Luna in her pokemon form stopping a few inches away from him.

"You…okay, Luna?" Max asked, a bit scared.

{…Why yes, why do you ask?} Luna responded calmly before leaning against the entrance corner with one shoulder.

"What… happened?"

{Nothing special, really. They just got what they deserved.}

Immediately after she was done speaking, Luna brought one of her paws to her mouth before starting to lick her claws. When Max noticed that they were covered in blood, his eyes widened in shock.

"What are you doing?" Max demanded before pulling her paw away from her mouth.

{Cleaning myself.}

"… That's gross, so let me help you." Max proposed before using his shirt to clean her paw.

{Thanks.}

"... No problem."

As Max was rubbing her claws, Luna almost tasted his fear, even if it was less than she could have expected.

{I hope all of this won't make you more scared of me.} Luna queried, slightly sadly.

"I'm… not scared."

Seeing no response, Max briefly looked at Luna, who was looking at him with a raised eyebrow.

"Not as much as you may think then."

{… I guess now you know a little bit more about me,} she shared after a moment of silence.

"… Yeah. I see you can be very protective."

Upon hearing him saying that, Luna got rather astonished.

{… I suppose that you're used to seeing things like that now.}

"More or less."

When he was done cleaning one paw, he motioned her to give him her other one.

{… Sorry,} Luna apologized.

"Why?"

{For making you see that. It's just… seeing you in danger like that…}

"No need to, Luna. I'm sure you just did what you had to do."

After a moment of silence, Max was done wiping her claws.

"How is it?"

For a brief instant, Luna glared at her claws, almost perfect.

{That will do. I can take care of the rest later.}

"No licking, please. We have water at the motel."

{There are also rivers near this place too.}

"If you want to. Let's get back to the motel now."

After Luna nodded, she took her human appearance before both of them resumed their walk across the streets. As they were walking, Max noticed that Luna was showing a slightly concerned face.

"You know, it won't change anything between us."

{Really?}

"Well, now that I know how protective you can be, I guess I'm starting to like you more."

At that, Luna stopped with slightly widened eyes.

{Are you serious?} she asked, a bit astonished.

"… What?" Max replied, stopping to look behind.

Sighing, Luna then rubbed the top of her head.

{… I should have known that blood-thirsty monsters were your thing,} Luna commented with a small smile before resuming her walk next to Max.

"Are you talking about yourself or Scarlet? Either way, I won't allow you to say such things."

{… Sorry.}

Then, Luna's face seemed to get even more worried. In the hope to reassure her, Max grabbed one of her hands and walked like this. Staying silent, Luna didn't try to remove her hand and even tightened her grasp a little.

{I… have a little confession to make,} Luna started after a few minutes.

"What is it?"

{You probably wonder why they just wanted me, right?}

"… A bit. I just assumed that you had trouble with them in the past."

{More or less. Dusk and I encountered them today and… we kind of got in trouble with them.}

"You and Dusk? They wanted to attack my little Dusk?"

Upon him saying that Luna felt his grasp getting stronger in anger.

{I don't really know about Dusk, but they wanted to have their way with me, in my human form.}

"… Those bastards. I guess they do deserve what you served them." Max growled, untightening his grasp. "… In a way, we can't really blame them though. I mean, you're quite pretty, even in your human form."

{… Eh, you really are a nice human.}

For the rest of the path to the motel, they remained pretty silent. When they were in front of it, both of them stopped with Luna detaching her paw from Max's hand. Since no one was around, Luna assumed that it was safe to take her normal form.

"Well, I guess it's a good night." Max wished, briefly looking at Luna.

{Yep.}

"If you ever feel the need to join us…"

{You all sleep when I'm most active, so it's not very practical.}

"True. Well, see you tomorrow then."

Then, as Max was heading towards his room door, Luna stopped him with one paw on his shoulder.

"What?"

Before Max could react, Luna had grabbed his chin and gave him a soft, gentle, and brief kiss on his lips.

"… W-what?" Max mumbled, a bit confused.

{Don't get your hopes too high little pup, you won't get anything more than that. I just thought that a nice human like you deserves a nice little reward,} she explained with a smile before leaving his chin.

"I… do?"

{Hehe,} Luna giggled. {Good night now, little pup,} Luna wished before jumping away, disappearing in the darkness of the night after a few seconds.

For almost a minute, Max stayed there, hardly believing what just happened.

"Was it more teasing or… was it real?" Max pondered.

Soon enough, Max shook his head and decided not to think too much about it.

(Probably just teasing. But I must admit that it was really pleasant.) Max thought while walking to his room.

{Ah, took you long enough.} Bonny commented, who was on the bed when Max entered.

"Sorry. I kind of got hungry and had dinner myself."

{Why? Is 'eating' me not satisfying enough?} Bonny jested lewdly.

"It is, but unfortunately, it's not as consistent as a big ol' steak." Max retorted before dropping himself on the bed like a corpse.

{You look a bit tired,} Dusk commented, who was sitting at the foot of the bed.

"I am. A quick shower and it's right to bed."

{Do you want me to join?} Bonny proposed before clinging into Max.

"You haven't showered yet?"

{Yes, but I don't mind taking another one with you.}

"I know how it will end with you. Not that I don't want to, but I just want to go to bed as soon as possible."

{Tsk, alright,} Bonny replied, a bit disappointed.

"I'm guessing all of you already took one?" Max inquired to his group.

{Yes,} Dusk responded.

{Yup,} Aurora answered, still in her armchair.

"Great. However, before doing so, I'm sure Jade is hungry." Max pointed out before retrieving his second gardevoir's pokeball.

Shortly, Jade was out of her capture capsule.

"Alright Jade, it's dinner time."

{Yeah, I know,} she replied with her usual unsure tone.

"I bought some pokemon food earlier. They're in my bag, so just serve yourself. I have a shower to take."

{… Okay.} she answered while looking at him disappearing behind the bathroom door.

After a low sigh, Jade went over to Max's backpack and took the gardevoir pokefood box before sitting in a corner of the room to start eating.

{You know, you can sit on the bed if you want to, it's more comfortable.} Bonny proposed to Jade.

{I'm… fine here. Thanks anyway,} she coldly responded while munching on the food, making Bonny and Dusk look at each other a bit desperately.

Twenty minutes later, the bathroom door opened with Max getting out with a towel around his waist.

{No funny business, huh?} Bonny commented, suspiciously looking at Max.

"I told you I'll go straight to bed after showering, so why bother dressing up? I just took a towel so as not to show too much to Jade," he explained while sitting on the edge of the bed.

{You don't have to bother about me,} Jade assured, done with eating but still sitting in the corner of the room.

"Come on now, I may not look like it, but I'm a gentleman when I want to."

{Too bad you don't want to very often,} Bonny teased.

"Shut up." Max retorted, lightly slapping one of Bonny's butt cheeks.

{Hihi,} the lopunny giggled.

{I'm ready to get in the pokeball whenever you want,} Jade told.

"You know, I'm sure we're pretty safe here in this town, so don't you want to stay out for tonight?"

{No thanks.} Jade responded without hesitation.

*sigh* "Okay then, as you wish then," Max complied before putting her back in her pokeball.

{Are you sure there's something to do with that one?} Aurora asked, not caring that much.

"I don't know, but I'm not ready to give up yet."

{You know master, seeing that much determination is a pretty strong turn-on for me,} Bonny coaxed while hugging him from behind, rubbing his chest with one soft paw.

"Strangely, it doesn't surprise me one bit." Max retorted before grabbing her paw and kissed her. "But let's save it for another day, okay?"

{Tsk, alright. At least I've tried.} Bonny replied with a semi-disappointed tone.

At that, everyone except Aurora went under the sheets with Bonny and Dusk on each side of Max and May between the braixen and Max. When everyone was comfortable, Aurora killed all the lights before installing herself in her now favorite furniture.
