Wil

Oh my gods. I just touched her breast. Do you think she noticed? Of course she noticed that. It's attached to her. She didn't say anything, though. Is she waiting for me to address it?

Sweet goddess, she's repulsed right now, isn't she? She thinks I've lost all respect for her and have decided to start groping her all willy nilly.

My hand is still tingling. They were so soft.

No! Snap out of it. You can not .

But she is my mate, technically, so...

Fart nugget. I just walked into a light post. Dag nabbit, that hurt.

“Oh my gods, Wil! Are you okay?” Delaney gasps, fleeing to my side.

Great, now I've waylaid our mission because I don't know how to handle myself in any sort of situation involving her. “I'm sorry I touched your breast. I didn't mean to.”

I can breathe easier now knowing she's at least heard me apologize. Maybe I'll breathe again fully when she accepts my apology.

“You touched my breast? When?”

I throw myself back onto the ground and stare at the clouds, wishing the ground could just swallow me whole.

I feel like that would be far less painful than this current situation.

“When we were trying to get out the door of your dorm room,” I explain quietly.

“It was an accident. I’m disgusted with myself. ”

She stares down at me, the tips of her toes in her black sneakers brushing against my hip. “Don't be. Unless you don't like my breasts? Do you even want me? We haven't really talked about us courting or anything.”

Oddly enough, the hint of panic is what calms me down more. I like that she gets awkward with me as well, it makes me feel like I can be more myself.

Feeling cheeky, I wrap a hand around her ankle and yank on her leg a little bit until she stumbles, not accounting for the fact that she would completely trip over me. I thought maybe she would just stumble a little bit and end up hovering above me in a really cute way like couples in movies do.

As it plays out though, I have to roll over quickly to catch her. I'm able to cushion her fall just enough that the wind gets knocked out of me, but she's spared any sort of pain.

At least I got what I want. She's now right above me, our bodies more or less aligned. So the outcome is good, but the execution needs some work.

I gape like a fish, trying to draw breath that won't come.

“Oh no, I broke you!”

“He likely just got the wind knocked out of him, Delaney,” the unicorn tells her.

I nod seriously and point at him, so she knows that he's correct.

When the air finally comes back, my first instinct is to grab onto her, and it feels so naughty.

Her wide hips are so, so... wonderful. “I'm touching you,” I say stupidly.

While we're here and being stupid though, I might as well go for broke.

“I like touching you. I didn't mean to insinuate that I didn't enjoy my... earlier, you know, touches. Only that it was without your consent. I already told you I was romantically interested in you. I just never thought I actually had a chance.”

“I really, really want to kiss you right now,” she says as she stares down at me.

I see this playing out in my mind, going two different ways.

The first way is that I launch her off of me or turn my head shyly, avoiding her at all costs to keep myself pure.

The other way this plays out is I let my body have what it wants, and I give myself permission to kiss the woman I'm supposed to be mated to. Somebody that the goddess has blessed me with.

I feel hopelessly reckless, and I don't let myself second guess anything else.

I remove one of my hands from her glorious hips so I can pull her head down to me.

Her soft hair is up in a bun, but it tickles my fingertips as I weave them into it.

Her eyes widen slightly as she realizes what's happening, but I can tell that she is ready to enjoy it.

A look of almost relief crosses through her eyes the second before our mouths touch.

I know it's not actually our first kiss, that she got excited and kissed me before; but this is the first intentional time I've kissed her, so it feels pretty major.

I'd like to say the birds started singing, then the sun came out, and the world flipped on its axis, but in reality, it was far worse than that.

I develop an intense, an instant erection, and she feels every bit of it. I don't even have the brainpower to be mortified, because her lips are on mine and she's licking my skin.

I feel my magic stirring within my chest at the strong emotion I always try so hard to suppress, and I’m scared, no, terrified that it's going to break free. My control is so hard won, and I’ve gone so long without any sort of magical freak out.

But some things just cannot be helped.

I'm shifted and stock still before I can discern which way the sky is. My limbs are locked up, my beady black eyes staring straight ahead, and any second now, I know the laughing will start. It always does.

Fainting goats always get so many views online, but nobody ever stops to think, hey, I wonder how mortified that goat is about this? What can I do to ease that goat's burden for them?

Unfortunately, my erection does not go away simply because I've switched forms. So not only am I locked up in a dead faint, my freaky, ugly, goat penis is sticking out into the air for everyone and their mother to see.

Maybe I can convince my heart to make the faint permanent. It can just stop beating right here, then I won't have to face anything else that comes later.

“Holy shit. Did anybody else know he was a goat shifter?”

Delaney immediately covers my body with hers, likely to give me a bit of modesty. She's quick to do it so I'm not sure how many people actually saw, or how many people were already looking at my penis when I transformed, but that's a totally different issue that I really don't need to think about.

The point is, her warmth covers me, regulates my nervous system, and I'm able to unfreeze myself.

Unfortunately, my movement makes her hand land right on my very exposed-to-the-air goat penis.

Maybe I have a superpower; because all it takes is that one stupid brush that shocks her due to the moisture content on my very stupid goat penis, for me to shoot off like a rocket.

Thank the high heavens there's so much grass underneath me; it should cover up the mess at least a little bit.

The pupils in Delaney's eyes widen, turning her eyes almost fully black as she soaks in the amount of lust that's surely pouring off of me being so close to her.

I have enough clarity now to be able to shift back to my human form, which again just puts me right under her, and we're just about back to square one.

“Guys, we have a problem,” Delaney practically whimpers.

I don't want to look away from her face, but when the demon and the unicorn both start quietly moaning, I'm absolutely forced to.

“Is the problem this rock-hard dick in my pants?” Rush replies to her with no grace.

“Because I'm pretty sure my balls are so heavy they could be used to knock down buildings.

Holy smokes, woman. I know you don't like me very well, but mounting you is just about the only thing I can think about right now.”

“Yes, that's the problem. Not sure if any of you are aware of it, but August and Jackson performed an essential function for me. They’re shields.

They blocked my magic from hitting people.

And apparently whatever business Fairyunicorn Goddess got up to making me forget all of you, drained my stores.

So, now I have no control over my magic again.

It's lashing out and it wants an orgy. It wants an orgy bad. ”

“Don't see... how that's a problem,” Rush gasps. He falls to his knees and starts crawling towards us.

“The only way to get it to stop is to feed off of one of you. But I kinda learned my lesson the hard way, and what if I try and feed off of one of you and it doesn't work? Not sure if I really want to feel what I actually mean to any of you. Also, two out of the three of you don’t even want to have sex with me at this moment in time, so there’s that as well. ”

“Children! What are you— oh . I see. Well…yikes, that’s potent.

Good job, darling. You make mummy so proud.

Would you like us to clear the area so you can enjoy some naked frolicking?

Oh dear, it might be a bit late for that.

I just saw no less than three pairs of naked breasts and two sets of male buttocks.

This is…maybe we should just rush you all out of here, instead. ”

Did I say I was mortified before? Because being found in this state by your future mate’s mother and fathers is…why the fates aren’t I dead yet?

Delaney yanks me up and hands me my clothing while breathing heavily, wrapping her arms tightly around herself.

I get my pants buttoned as we walk to the parking lot, and we’re ushered into one of the cars her parents drove. Our poor girl is practically shaking.

I don’t know if I should touch her to try and offer comfort, or if that would simply increase the bad way she’s clearly feeling.

“You good back there, Del?” one of her fathers asks.

She nods. “Just been a bit since I’ve felt like this, going to take me a minute to get used to it again. I forgot how much this sucks.”

I’m sat in the row behind her, next to Saladriel, and he’s holding himself nearly as tightly as Delaney is. His hands are in two meaty fists, but Rush is really the one I’m scared of.

He’s shaking, no, vibrating, next to Delaney, and I’m so focused on how uncomfortable they both are that I nearly miss the student that is currently standing in the middle of the road, waving us down.

I manage to warn Delaney’s fathers in time, because clearly, they’re distracted by seeing their kid so distraught, and they slam on the breaks, seatbelts straining to hold all of us back.

Rush opens the door without any explanation, ushering in the student who… oh . It’s that kid he was with in the grocery store.
