“A City Wolf Joins the Pack” by Fopfox (part 2 of 2) [18+]

Speaker: 00:00:01

You’re listening to The Voice of Dog. I’m Khaki, your faithful fireside companion,

Speaker: 00:00:07

and Today’s story is the second and final part of

Speaker: 00:00:10

“A City Wolf Joins the Pack”

Speaker: 00:00:11

by Fopfox, who enjoys writing shamelessly smutty furry science fiction stories,

Speaker: 00:00:16

many of which are in the Vassalized Earth setting he created.

Speaker: 00:00:20

You can read more of his raunchy filth on his Sofurry profile.

Speaker: 00:00:23

Last time, Cornelius left the city and joined The Pack

Speaker: 00:00:27

and we ended just as he was about to begin his first day of work

Speaker: 00:00:30

with a word of warning from Aroon.

“A City Wolf Joins the Pack”

Please enjoy: 00:00:36

by Fopfox, Part 2

Please enjoy: 00:00:38

of 2 Aroon had left me in the midst of the Pack,

Please enjoy: 00:00:45

of whom the members proceeded to chat about fairly bog-standard wolven things such as

Please enjoy: 00:00:49

last night's dinners,

Please enjoy: 00:00:50

nice smells, and the weather.

Please enjoy: 00:00:53

None of them addressed me, leaving me quite confused as to what was going on.

Please enjoy: 00:00:57

At one point, Moonfur walked across my field of vision and upon seeing me,

Please enjoy: 00:01:01

he scampered off nervously.

Please enjoy: 00:01:03

I was tempted to ask him about what was going on

Please enjoy: 00:01:05

but didn't want to chase after a panicked wolf,

Please enjoy: 00:01:08

I was already in enough trouble from him.

Please enjoy: 00:01:11

"THE ALPHA APPROACHES!"

Please enjoy: 00:01:13

a small wolf with a shrill voice barked.

Please enjoy: 00:01:16

I heard a sharp squeaking noise before a figure emerged from the trees.

Please enjoy: 00:01:20

Sitting in a wheelchair rolled by a tired-looking brown wolf,

Please enjoy: 00:01:23

was the most ancient-looking wolf I had ever seen.

Please enjoy: 00:01:26

His jowls were drooping so low that they almost reached his shoulders

Please enjoy: 00:01:30

and the wrinkles on his face were so heavy that they covered up his eyes.

Please enjoy: 00:01:33

He sniffed around with his nose,

Please enjoy: 00:01:35

taking in the smells of the Pack in lieu of his eyes.

Please enjoy: 00:01:38

"A wheelchair?" I asked to no one in particular.

Please enjoy: 00:01:41

"What happened to no technology?"

Please enjoy: 00:01:44

There was a heavy growl behind me and a wolf snapped his jaws around the back of my neck

Please enjoy: 00:01:48

and gave me a quick hump against the rear.

Please enjoy: 00:01:50

"Show some respect, applicant!"

Please enjoy: 00:01:52

the wolf grumbled in my ear before releasing me

Please enjoy: 00:01:54

and joining the others to greet the approaching Alpha.

Please enjoy: 00:01:57

The Alpha's black nose pointed in my direction and twitched.

Please enjoy: 00:02:00

His voice was as rough as sandpaper

Please enjoy: 00:02:02

and as weak as a daisy,

Please enjoy: 00:02:04

"Oh no...not another one..."

Please enjoy: 00:02:08

All of the members of the Pack immediately rolled onto their backs and exposed their bellies.

Please enjoy: 00:02:12

I did the same, scuffing up my back fur and caking it with mud even more, much to my chagrin.

Please enjoy: 00:02:17

I wasn't exactly sure what I was doing, but the rest of the Pack was doing it, so that was what I was suppose to do, right? "We have a tour coming in, package deal that includes a hunting demonstration first thing,"

Please enjoy: 00:02:29

the brown wolf spoke for the Alpha,

Please enjoy: 00:02:31

"we're going to need five wolves as volunteers."

Please enjoy: 00:02:34

The members of the Pack began excitedly clamoring to their feet,

Please enjoy: 00:02:37

barking and yowling to be picked. "You,

Please enjoy: 00:02:39

you, you, you, and..." the brown wolf pointed to Moonfur at the end,

Please enjoy: 00:02:45

"you. Get over to the hunting square.

Please enjoy: 00:02:48

Applicant, you observe.

Please enjoy: 00:02:49

The rest of you, get to work on processing pork,

Please enjoy: 00:02:52

we have a quota to meet by the weekend, move!"

Please enjoy: 00:02:56

This was beginning to feel an awful lot like my job back in the city,

Please enjoy: 00:03:00

where a middle manager would give daily orders at the pointless morning huddles

Please enjoy: 00:03:03

just so that he could feel justified in taking home twice my pay,

Please enjoy: 00:03:07

but I shook such thoughts out of my head.

Please enjoy: 00:03:09

I handed in my notice,

Please enjoy: 00:03:11

I was gone now. "Get a move on, pervert!"

Please enjoy: 00:03:14

Moonfur snapped his teeth in front of my face.

Please enjoy: 00:03:17

"Get to the square, NOW!"

Please enjoy: 00:03:20

With no other direction given,

Please enjoy: 00:03:21

I crept at a distance behind Moonfur,

Please enjoy: 00:03:23

following him to where we needed to go.

Please enjoy: 00:03:26

We passed the entrance,

Please enjoy: 00:03:27

where I caught a glimpse of a big tour bus lurking in the parking lot beyond the gate,

Please enjoy: 00:03:31

and pushed through a small trail

Please enjoy: 00:03:32

leading through a cropping of trees.

Please enjoy: 00:03:35

Emerging from beyond the bush was what I could only describe as a small stadium made of wood.

Please enjoy: 00:03:40

Imagine a jousting tournament from a movie set in medieval times

Please enjoy: 00:03:44

and you would have a good image, except instead of lords, ladies, and peasants sitting in the stands,

Please enjoy: 00:03:48

you had a bunch of tourists wearing tacky t-shirts and flashing their smart-phones.

Please enjoy: 00:03:53

Most of the tourists were humans, foxes, or cats.

Please enjoy: 00:03:56

I couldn't see any fellow City-Wolfs there.

Please enjoy: 00:03:59

Moonfur led me into a small entrance

Please enjoy: 00:04:01

opposite the stands which had a cloak-room full of supplies.

Please enjoy: 00:04:04

The fellow wolves in this detachment began rifling through the boxes for equipment.

Please enjoy: 00:04:08

"Okay, make sure to cork your fangs!" Moonfur barked as the wolves began sticking corks from old wine bottles onto their teeth.

Please enjoy: 00:04:15

"No wolves in the crowd, so go nuts with the tribal gear, they'll get a

Please enjoy: 00:04:19

kick out of that."

Please enjoy: 00:04:20

Within an instant,

Please enjoy: 00:04:21

all of the wolves had slapped on brightly colored facial markings onto their fur

Please enjoy: 00:04:25

and put on a series of plastic accessories

Please enjoy: 00:04:27

designed to make them look more

Please enjoy: 00:04:29

tribal. One wolf had a fake bone earring sticking out of his left nostril

Please enjoy: 00:04:33

while others were wearing cloaks of hide and loincloths that failed to cover up anything significant.

Please enjoy: 00:04:38

"Last time we didn't howl enough,"

Please enjoy: 00:04:40

Moonfur growled,

Please enjoy: 00:04:42

"if you aren't howling all the damn time, you're not howling enough.

Please enjoy: 00:04:45

Tourists love howling, okay?"

Please enjoy: 00:04:47

Placing a white paw atop the shoulder of a brown wolf with particularly nasty teeth,

Please enjoy: 00:04:51

Moonfur said, "You be the bad wolf this time.

Please enjoy: 00:04:54

There's a family of foxes in the front row,

Please enjoy: 00:04:56

give them a fright and make their fur poof." "Aye, Moonfur,"

Please enjoy: 00:05:00

the brown wolf lunged forward, snarling out me,

Please enjoy: 00:05:03

maw dripping with saliva.

Please enjoy: 00:05:05

My pelt puffed up

Please enjoy: 00:05:06

and I feel backwards as the rest of the Pack laughed.

Please enjoy: 00:05:09

My butt fell into an open box full of corks

Please enjoy: 00:05:11

and I began struggling to escape it.

Please enjoy: 00:05:13

"Applicant, you just sit here and watch,"

Please enjoy: 00:05:16

Moonfur snorted,

Please enjoy: 00:05:17

"and keep your paws off your sheath,

Please enjoy: 00:05:19

this is a family event!"

Please enjoy: 00:05:21

Moonfur led a chorus of howls

Please enjoy: 00:05:23

as the wolves emerged from the cloakroom and into the arena

Please enjoy: 00:05:25

to thunderous applause.

Please enjoy: 00:05:27

"Go on girl, go!" I heard a familiar voice cry out from the entrance.

Please enjoy: 00:05:32

A young cow came trampling in with Aroon lightly slapping it on the rear until it entered the arena.

Please enjoy: 00:05:37

Aroon closed the arena door behind the cow

Please enjoy: 00:05:39

and slid open a wide peephole from which the events were readily visible.

Please enjoy: 00:05:43

"This is..." I cut myself off as I fell onto the ground,

Please enjoy: 00:05:47

flipping the box over and spilling corks all over the floor.

Please enjoy: 00:05:50

Once again, I needed Aroon's help to get to my feet amidst the sea of corks.

Please enjoy: 00:05:55

"Not quite what you expected?"

Please enjoy: 00:05:57

Aroon offered. "Yes, uh...

Please enjoy: 00:05:59

uh..." I slowly walked over to the peephole

Please enjoy: 00:06:02

and saw the wolves circling the cow,

Please enjoy: 00:06:03

who didn't seem the slightest bit nervous that she was surrounded by predators, "...

Please enjoy: 00:06:07

"...what the hell is going on?"

Please enjoy: 00:06:09

"Hunting demonstration.

Please enjoy: 00:06:11

Tourists like to see wolves hunt but they don't like seeing blood,

Please enjoy: 00:06:15

so we cork our teeth, gnaw on the cow a bit, give them a bit of a show, and that's that."

Please enjoy: 00:06:19

"It seems a bit silly."

Please enjoy: 00:06:21

"Helps pay for the land taxes and our supplies."

Please enjoy: 00:06:24

"Supplies?" I asked.

Please enjoy: 00:06:26

"I thought the Pack was self-sustaining."

Please enjoy: 00:06:28

"Making money is considered self-sustaining,

Please enjoy: 00:06:31

the Pack voted on it decades ago, long before I was born,"

Please enjoy: 00:06:34

Aroon smiled. "We vote to approve things like that."

Please enjoy: 00:06:38

"Like how the Alpha's wheelchair is acceptable?"

Please enjoy: 00:06:41

"Exactly! But that's quite acceptable if you ask me,"

Please enjoy: 00:06:44

Aroon frowned. "I'm a little bit more concerned about us approving the construction of a pork rendering factory

Please enjoy: 00:06:49

while banning distemper treatments.

Please enjoy: 00:06:51

Apparently it helps build character?"

Please enjoy: 00:06:54

"A pork rendering factory!?

Please enjoy: 00:06:56

Are you serious!?" "Yeah, it's just through the woods next to the Alpha's manor.

Please enjoy: 00:07:00

manor." "This..." I frowned, "...

Please enjoy: 00:07:02

"...must be some kind of mistake!

Please enjoy: 00:07:04

Wolves didn't live like this centuries ago!

Please enjoy: 00:07:06

The bacon package lied to me!"

Please enjoy: 00:07:08

"Yeah...there's just no way to remain competitive in the urban market without a pork killing floor and a

Please enjoy: 00:07:13

snappy marketing campaign,"

Please enjoy: 00:07:15

Aroon shrugged. "Even I know that and I've never left this place."

Please enjoy: 00:07:20

"This is not what I came here for...

Please enjoy: 00:07:22

for..." I whined, "...I wanted something a bit more simplistic not so...

Please enjoy: 00:07:26

so...fake!" "Guess nothing in life is really real, you know?"

Please enjoy: 00:07:31

Aroon slipped around me

Please enjoy: 00:07:33

and hugged me from behind,

Please enjoy: 00:07:34

I could hear his tail thumping against the wall

Please enjoy: 00:07:36

as his hot breath whispered across my ear.

Please enjoy: 00:07:39

"Wanna run away together?"

Please enjoy: 00:07:41

"What!?" "You're not going to be happy here and I'm a bit tired of the same scenery.

Please enjoy: 00:07:47

I wouldn't mind seeing the world with a handsome City-Wolf!"

Please enjoy: 00:07:51

I felt my face flush

Please enjoy: 00:07:52

and Aroon sniffed at my shoulder.

Please enjoy: 00:07:54

Chuckling, Aroon whispered,

Please enjoy: 00:07:56

"I could smell it on you a mile away...

Please enjoy: 00:07:58

away...plus Moonfur told the whole Pack that you were queer.

Please enjoy: 00:08:01

We might hump our cocks against each other's asses but that's not sexual

Please enjoy: 00:08:04

and most of us ain't exactly okay with your tastes..."

Please enjoy: 00:08:07

Rough paw-pads brushed up against my sheath. "But there ain't nothing wrong with it as far as I'm concerned.

Please enjoy: 00:08:13

Come on, lets get out of here!"

Please enjoy: 00:08:16

"I don't want to go back to the city,"

Please enjoy: 00:08:18

I whispered. "Then lets go somewhere else, somewhere new to both of us." "I...

Please enjoy: 00:08:22

"I..." I rubbed my cheek against his wet nose, "...

Please enjoy: 00:08:26

"...I'm afraid I barely know you."

Please enjoy: 00:08:29

"I barely know you too but I'm willing to know you,"

Please enjoy: 00:08:32

Aroon let loose a soft whine,

Please enjoy: 00:08:35

"lets find a place we can both love."

Please enjoy: 00:08:37

My heart was racing.

Please enjoy: 00:08:39

I had made a commitment to leave the city behind and join the Pack,

Please enjoy: 00:08:42

could I make another impulsive change in such a short period?

Please enjoy: 00:08:46

Fuck it. "Lets go,"

Please enjoy: 00:08:48

I whispered. Aroon led the way like a true Alpha;

Please enjoy: 00:08:53

he had everything planned.

Please enjoy: 00:08:54

While the other wolves were busy with their chores,

Please enjoy: 00:08:56

we snuck into the gift shop's employee entrance and stole clothes. Aroon looked very uncomfortable wearing his

Please enjoy: 00:09:02

"I Howled at the Moon With the Pack," t-shirt, but it didn't seem to deter him.

Please enjoy: 00:09:07

A gift shop. I had to laugh,

Please enjoy: 00:09:10

it all seemed so silly now.

Please enjoy: 00:09:12

I imagined prehistoric cave-wolves inviting neighboring wolves in and selling loincloths stamped with marketing slogans on them

Please enjoy: 00:09:18

in the gift-cave. Of course,

Please enjoy: 00:09:21

why wouldn't a place that had a pork rendering plant have a gift shop?

Please enjoy: 00:09:25

We slipped onto the empty tour bus,

Please enjoy: 00:09:27

Aroon had done the math and concluded that there would be empty seats.

Please enjoy: 00:09:30

The driver stumbled back on,

Please enjoy: 00:09:32

a human reeking of cigarette smoke, but he didn't seem to pay us any mind.

Please enjoy: 00:09:36

My paw was in his

Please enjoy: 00:09:37

and I stared into his mismatched eyes.

Please enjoy: 00:09:40

It was hardly the most romantic of settings

Please enjoy: 00:09:42

but it was the beginning of something amazing,

Please enjoy: 00:09:45

I knew it. "You're not worried about leaving everyone behind?"

Please enjoy: 00:09:49

I whispered. "Nah," Aroon leaned into my ear,

Please enjoy: 00:09:52

nuzzling it, "if I miss it,

Please enjoy: 00:09:55

I can always go back."

Please enjoy: 00:09:57

A heavy musk began wafting off of Aroon's scent glands.

Please enjoy: 00:10:00

It had quite the tantalizing smell,

Please enjoy: 00:10:02

finer than the aroma of that exquisite... Fuck it, it smelled

Please enjoy: 00:10:07

like sex. Raw, animalistic sex. Aroon whined as the tourists began trickling in.

Please enjoy: 00:10:13

We got a few stares from the humans and a few of the foxes wrinkled their noses at us.

Please enjoy: 00:10:18

"We gotta wait," I whispered,

Please enjoy: 00:10:20

"most people don't like having other's scents offend

Please enjoy: 00:10:23

them." Aroon whined, "Fuck, really?"

Please enjoy: 00:10:26

I nodded. Aroon licked his nose

Please enjoy: 00:10:29

and dug his claws into the seat.

Please enjoy: 00:10:31

Around when the bus was half-full,

Please enjoy: 00:10:33

the driver started it up and gave a quick announcement of how long it would take to get back to the city,

Please enjoy: 00:10:37

before rumbling away from the commune

Please enjoy: 00:10:39

and down a narrow road.

Please enjoy: 00:10:41

I tried to ignore Aroon's wet nose prodding against me

Please enjoy: 00:10:44

and his hot breath brushing against my fur.

Please enjoy: 00:10:47

Likewise, I also tried to ignore my own desires growing in my trousers.

Please enjoy: 00:10:52

But could I really keep a wolf who decided to run away from home under control?

Please enjoy: 00:10:56

And did I want to?

Please enjoy: 00:10:58

When we got onto the highway,

Please enjoy: 00:11:00

Aroon couldn't resist anymore and pressed his snout up against mine.

Please enjoy: 00:11:04

He gave me a better introduction to wolven kisses than Moonfur did,

Please enjoy: 00:11:07

passionately nipping on my muzzle

Please enjoy: 00:11:09

and running his tongue along my lips until I let my guard down and opened up.

Please enjoy: 00:11:13

As our tongues met and explored our mouths,

Please enjoy: 00:11:15

I could smell his musk growing in intensity

Please enjoy: 00:11:17

and felt my cock begin to slip free of my sheath,

Please enjoy: 00:11:19

pressing up against my underwear.

Please enjoy: 00:11:21

I partly wished we were back at the Pack so that I could fully free it.

Please enjoy: 00:11:25

My resistance was truly broken

Please enjoy: 00:11:27

and I reached down to Aroon's crotch and began feeling up his bulging trousers.

Please enjoy: 00:11:31

I moaned and Aroon growled deeply

Please enjoy: 00:11:33

as he reached around my shoulders

Please enjoy: 00:11:34

and bit me on the back of the neck.

Please enjoy: 00:11:37

"ENOUGH!" a fox shrieked.

Please enjoy: 00:11:39

"STOP THE BUS!" "Well,"

Please enjoy: 00:11:42

I sighed holding my thumb out at a passing sedan on the highway,

Please enjoy: 00:11:46

"as you can see, things aren't exactly perfect in the city either."

Please enjoy: 00:11:50

"I'm sorry," Aroon apologized,

Please enjoy: 00:11:53

mimicking me with his thumb as he padded behind me on the road,

Please enjoy: 00:11:56

"I still don't understand what the big deal was.

Please enjoy: 00:11:58

In the Pack you can rut all you want in public, so long as it's not with someone else's bitch and so long as it ain't queer."

Please enjoy: 00:12:04

"Urban society has a lot of weird rules, but then,

Please enjoy: 00:12:07

so did the Pack so...

Please enjoy: 00:12:08

so..." I shrugged, "...maybe I should just sack up and beg for my job back."

Please enjoy: 00:12:14

"I never said I wanted to go back,"

Please enjoy: 00:12:16

Aroon put his paw on my shoulder,

Please enjoy: 00:12:18

"I still want to do this."

Please enjoy: 00:12:20

I turned around and smiled at Aroon,

Please enjoy: 00:12:22

gently pressing my nose against his. BEEP BEEP!

Please enjoy: 00:12:25

"Where ya'll headed!?"

Please enjoy: 00:12:28

I broke out of our embrace to find a yellow dog leaning out of the window of a pick-up truck.

Please enjoy: 00:12:33

"Anywhere but here!"

Please enjoy: 00:12:35

"Next stop: Greenville,"

Please enjoy: 00:12:38

the dog motioned towards the truck bed,

Please enjoy: 00:12:40

"hop on in!" Aroon effortlessly swung into the truck bed

Please enjoy: 00:12:44

and then reached down to help me climb in with him.

Please enjoy: 00:12:46

I collapsed onto him in the back,

Please enjoy: 00:12:48

laughing as the truck rumbled

Please enjoy: 00:12:50

and swung back onto the freeway.

Please enjoy: 00:12:52

"Not a lotta drifters look as good as you two,"

Please enjoy: 00:12:55

the dog called back through the back window,

Please enjoy: 00:12:57

"you looking for work or something?"

Please enjoy: 00:13:00

"Something like that,"

Please enjoy: 00:13:01

I replied, "we both need a fresh start.

Please enjoy: 00:13:04

What's there in Greenville?"

Please enjoy: 00:13:06

"Well, there's the ranch, they're always looking for new hands."

Please enjoy: 00:13:10

Aroon smiled, "I've handled a few hogs in my time."

Please enjoy: 00:13:14

"And then there's the brewpub,

Please enjoy: 00:13:17

dunno if they're looking for work, but a lot of young people have moved in since they did...

Please enjoy: 00:13:20

did...Old Ranch Brewery?"

Please enjoy: 00:13:23

"Old Ranch Brewery!"

Please enjoy: 00:13:25

I beamed. "Their Belgian Triple Ale was truly an inspired ale, carrying notes of sherry!

Please enjoy: 00:13:30

It was a bold experiment but it payed off well!"

Please enjoy: 00:13:33

The dog laughed, "I got no idea what you're talking about, more of a

Please enjoy: 00:13:37

lager guy here, but if you work as good as you talk about beer they probably can hook you up with a job."

Please enjoy: 00:13:43

I rubbed Aroon on the leg

Please enjoy: 00:13:45

and looked into his eyes.

Please enjoy: 00:13:46

My heart was beating rapidly,

Please enjoy: 00:13:48

for a moment I felt like things were moving too fast.

Please enjoy: 00:13:51

Things were just getting set into place too well

Please enjoy: 00:13:54

and I just knew something was going to go wrong,

Please enjoy: 00:13:56

the other shoe would drop.

Please enjoy: 00:13:58

Aroon leaned in

Please enjoy: 00:13:59

and gently bit me on the muzzle before I could object.

Please enjoy: 00:14:02

My heart settled

Please enjoy: 00:14:03

and I leaned into the wolf,

Please enjoy: 00:14:04

closing my eyes as the countryside rolled beside us.

Please enjoy: 00:14:07

I wasn't a City-Wolf anymore

Please enjoy: 00:14:09

and Aroon wasn't a member of the Pack.

Please enjoy: 00:14:12

A small town would be a change of pace for both of us.

Please enjoy: 00:14:16

And I hoped it would stay that way,

Please enjoy: 00:14:17

I truly did. This was the second
