Raccoon Twenty-Seven

King tucked his head against the pillow and groaned as his wet dream ramped up.

He was partially aware that he was beginning to wake up, and that he was sleeping right next to Baron, but at the same time, his body was humming with a need that he desperately wanted to alleviate.

Honestly, he expected the man to climb on top of him and start helping, but even as he squirmed and moaned as the hands in his dream played with him incessantly, he still didn't feel any real ones on his body.

Eventually, when he still couldn't get himself off in his dream, King squinted his eyes open and turned his head on the pillow so that he could look to his left.

His eyes quickly narrowed on the smiling man staring at him, making Baron look a tad sheepish.

"I'm sorry, love, I didn't want to touch you while you were asleep," he said, making King groan as he pressed himself closer, signaling that he was more than okay with him touching him right then.

You and your consent stuff...

He loved it, but damn it he was horny.

"You can touch me now," he grumbled out, knowing that he shouldn't be upset.

Baron chuckled quietly and reached over to settle his hand atop King's head. King gladly closed his eyes for the attention, but when nothing else happened, he opened them again and glared at a smirking Baron.

"Hmm? What's wrong, sweetheart?" he asked in a tone of voice that told him that he knew exactly what was wrong.

Teasing me...

King clenched his jaw and considered just getting up and going to take a shower. In fact... he began to do just that, and sat up before swinging his legs over the edge of the bed.

He didn't get much further in his plan, though.

A warm hand soon found its way around his wrist, though its grip was extremely gentle. The faint touch had him looking over his shoulder, then nearly dying from cuteness!

Baron was still lying down on the pillow they'd evidently been sharing, but his teasing smirk was nowhere to be seen now. Instead, he was pouting and looking up at him while biting his lower lip.

That's cheating!

Even as he thought those words, King couldn't help but turn around and move closer on his hands and knees.

Baron, of course, was waiting for him, no longer willing to risk losing his chance to love on him just to tease him a little.

They were soon kissing quite passionately as Baron's arms wrapped around King like vices, unwilling to let go. King had slept in only a simple pair of briefs this time, and, as per his request, and after Baron confirmed that he was perfectly comfortable with it, Baron had continued to sleep naked.

King could easily feel the man's arousal through his thin underwear as he settled between his legs, but it no longer made him nervous.

Baron could have done a lot of things while staying with him. He could have tried to take advantage of several situations, time and again, yet he chose to be a gentleman.

Even while he was dreaming about him, he didn't try to be inappropriate.

The man really was too good.

"May I touch you here?" Baron asked suddenly, his voice gruff as his fingers massaged the edge of King's underwear.

King grinned against Baron's lips and pressed his hips down against the man's arousal. Baron read his silent signal loud and clear, but instead of simply grabbing his butt like the man usually did, he inched his fingers beneath the fabric, then kept going until King felt one of them press against his entrance.

He hesitated a little in their kiss, making Baron retract his finger and simply rest his hand on his backside. His withdrawal gave King a chance to think without stressing, making him quickly come to the realization that he was perfectly fine with Baron touching him in such a way.

In fact, he quickly returned to fervently kissing his man as he spread his legs across Baron's waist. That signal was also read loud and clear, and soon King felt himself being explored in an area he'd never thought would be touched by another person.

He found out that he rather liked it, too. A lot.

Baron gladly continued giving him attention, adding a finger after a few minutes, then a third once King began moving against him. He was also groaning quite loudly and had redirected his mouth to Baron's throat, where he was making quite a few bloody marks.

Soon he was arching his back as he released onto Baron's hot chest, honestly shocked that he had gotten so worked up just by having someone's fingers in his ass.

As he calmed down, he realized that Baron's free hand was now rubbing his back, seemingly not caring in the least that he was now quite sweaty and had made a mess between them.

"That was amazing, love," Baron finally said as King leaned up on shaky arms until he was able to meet his warm gaze.

That's when he realized that he'd made a mess of something else, too.

"I-I tore your neck up!" he squeaked as he reached up with one hand, but then hesitated, nervous about hurting him more.

Baron didn't seem nearly as worried about the amount of damage he'd done. In fact, he was all smiles as he looked up at him and even patted his head with his free hand.

"Babe, I have to admit that you have some beautiful, yet surprisingly-sharp teeth, but I love biting, and being bitten. Don't fret about a little blood. I enjoyed myself just as much as you did."

He was just about to fumble out a reply to the man's confession when his phone alarm suddenly began blaring from the nightstand next to them.

Oh shit, we're going to look at houses soon!

King scrambled to get off of Baron... and nearly fell out of their bed as his underwear, which had evidently been pulled down quite a bit, restricted his legs just enough to trip him up.

Thankfully, Baron was there and paying close attention, so there was never any risk of him falling.

"Careful, love, and sorry, I got a little carried away and pulled your underwear down quite a bit," he said with a cheeky grin that showed that he definitely didn't regret it.

No wonder why I came on his chest instead of on the fabric...

King snapped out of his thoughts quickly as he reached for his phone to silence his alarm, then stood up after nudging his underwear the rest of the way off. A good stretch followed before he noticed Baron's hot gaze on him.

He was about to ask him if he wanted help getting off, too, but then he noticed that the man wasn't hard at all.

Oh, he probably came when I was on top of him.

King's face burned, but only for a moment.

"Shower?" he asked instead as he reached forward, offering Baron a hand.

They hadn't actually showered together yet, since they were both a bit handsy when the other was naked recently, but considering they'd both just gotten off, it should be okay.

That was, however, not the case.

They had to wash themselves three times before King finally managed to step out of the shower... with a few extra bite marks on his collar bone, shoulder, and hips.

Glaring back at the now-closed curtain, he could just tell that Baron was smirking at him from behind it as he finished rinsing himself off.

King quickly brushed his teeth and combed his hair, then walked out right as Baron was stepping out of the shower. He could sense the man's emotions the entire time he was getting ready and knew that he had to scoot along or they'd get distracted again.

Thankfully, they both managed to get ready in time to be a little early to meet their realtor at the first house on their list.

It was a good thing, too, because right as he was finishing slipping his shoes on, and checking to make sure that the nibbles Baron gave him were covered, he heard a quiet knock on the front door.

Hmm?

He wasn't expecting the realtor to meet them at his apartment, nor was his mom supposed to be over today...

Frowning, confused, King hurried to the door and looked out the peephole.

I don't see anyone. Maybe it's a package?

He didn't remember ordering anything, but sometimes his mom sent him things randomly.

Mentally shrugging, he opened the door, only to blink down in shock at the little girl staring up at him with tears in her sad eyes.

"T-Tili?!" he squeaked as he quickly picked her up and ran inside to a surprised Baron.

Thankfully, the man immediately dropped the shirt he'd been about to tug on in order to take his daughter and hug her close.

"Sweetheart, what happened? Where is your mom?" he asked immediately, sending a few confused looks at King.

He, of course, had no idea what was going on, either.

Instead of questioning him in return, King reached into Baron's back pocket and took out his phone, then turned the screen on.

No messages.

Baron took the phone after situating his daughter on his hip, then unlocked it and dialed his soon-to-be ex wife.

"Hey babe," the woman's toxicly-sweet voice immediately chimed over the phone, making King nearly gag.

"Why is Tili here? Why didn't you call me before you dropped her off?" Baron asked immediately, not bothering with a greeting.

His wife didn't seem worried as she replied in a nonchalant tone.

"I knocked on the door. Aren't you going to thank me for letting you have her while I get my nails and hair done? She wanted to see her daddy."

Why is that demon even in town yet?

They weren't scheduled to meet her till this coming week!

"Let's have dinner tonight and talk without that nasty lawyer you found, babe."

Before Baron could even respond with the rage King could feel storming within his mind, the woman hung up on him.

What just happened?

Baron immediately dialed another number and lifted the phone to his ear as he turned his head and pressed a kiss to his daughter's cheek to keep her calm.

"Hello Ms. Anne, my wife just dropped our daughter off outside my door without notifying us."

King couldn't hear his mom's response since she was a lot quieter, but Baron nodded several times as the two conversed back and forth. Thankfully, Baron calmed down rather quickly as they spoke, which helped his daughter relax, too.

When he hung up a few moments later, he was all smiles as he slid his phone back into his pocket, then lifted his daughter above his head.

"You're gonna come with us today!"

Tili squealed happily, her previous upset completely replaced by the promise of a whole day with her dad! They quickly adjusted their plans and as Baron finished getting dressed, King filled a small tote bag with some snacks and things to bring along for Tili, then they headed out the door.

They picked up a quick breakfast on the way to their first showing and had just enough time to eat before the realtor showed up.

The first two houses weren't quite what he was looking for, but Tili still had a lot of fun running around looking at stuff with her dad, so he didn't rush them since the realtor didn't seem to mind.

She honestly seemed to enjoy chatting with Tili as she showed her different things about the houses they were looking at. Thankfully, though, Tili didn't ask anything specific... like about having her own room.

He definitely planned to get a three bedroom place specifically for that purpose, but he didn't want to seem like he was using her to push Baron into a corner, like his wife was, by mentioning that the third room would definitely be hers if she stayed with them.

Things would fall into place as they should.

It was around eleven when they got to their third house. It had been one that had needed a little work, but nothing crazy. It was worth checking out.

As funny as it was, Baron actually began walking around noting which things he could easily fix with the right tools and, of course, his little helper.

It was a new side to him that King hadn't seen yet, and he was more than happy to quietly follow the other man through the home and simply listen as he and the realtor spoke about what would need done.

Overall, though, it was a gorgeous house with high ceilings, granite countertops, a large two car garage, and plenty of space outside. It also had a beautiful bit of forest in the back with a little stream running in front of it.

He could sense his animal stir in his mind as they stepped out onto the large back deck, but his grin was all for Baron, because it was far more clear that he was struggling to keep Prince from taking over and—yeah, Prince was now out and bounding down to the beautiful stream, kicking off Baron's clothing with Tili hot on his heels!

King glanced at the realtor, but she seemed perfectly fine with them having some fun. The house was currently vacant and the owners had already moved out of state, so they wouldn't be waiting for them to leave. There also were no other scheduled showings for the home until later that day.

Rexy was now whining in his mind, so when the realtor just leaned on the railing, watching Prince and Tili down below, King decided to kick off his shoes and head down to play, in his human form, for a few minutes, too.

Except, that few minutes turned into twenty, then they took a more detailed tour of the house, with a damp Prince in one arm and wiggling Tili in the other.

He honestly found that even with its little issues, he really was falling in love with the home. It had big rooms, great natural lighting, and the kitchen was gorgeous.

This is a beautiful home, King, Baron thought to him, managing to get a full sentence through their bond.

King nodded as he looked up at the high ceiling.

"We could totally make a climbing area for Prince in here, too," he said, responding to Baron's thought with one of his own out loud.

"The previous owners had shelves installed on the walls for their cats, too," the realtor said as she pointed to the shelves that King was just now noticing.

Tili seemed to realize what they were for, too, because soon she was the most adorable little kitten, mewing in his arms to be lifted up onto one!

How freaking adorable...

He, of course, obliged and helped her up onto one of the wooden shelves. It didn't take long for Prince to hurry and follow, but while Tili could easily hop from shelf to shelf with ease, Prince was a bit too... portly. King had to catch him several times from failed jumps, making the raccoon become frustrated, unable to play with its daughter.

After his third coon-catch King chuckled and squeezed the squirming fuzzball. He wasn't sure how Prince was so much chubbier than his human counterpart, but it was a simple fix.

"We'll work on some exercising and soon you'll be able to run and play with her easily, okay?" he said as he lifted Prince up again.

This time the chubby raccoon refused to let Tili's kitten go once he managed to catch her, resulting in the poor thing meowing in protest... while licking Prince's face.

Since the two were currently busy bonding, King turned his attention to the realtor and began talking price. With Baron's help, he could easily manage the down payment, and after Baron finally changed back, he sat down with them, after getting dressed, of course, and fill out the necessary paperwork that she'd brought with her.

They were just about finished when Baron's phone rang.

Judging by the look on his face, it wasn't going to be a good call, so King gladly accepted Tili's kitten and stayed quiet as Baron excused himself and stepped outside.

By the time he came back in King had everything signed and was all smiles as he cuddled a sleepy Tili in his arms. Of course, as soon as she saw her daddy she was purring loudly and making biscuits on King's shirt, eager to be handed off to Baron.

The man's gloomy expression immediately changed to contentment as he picked up his daughter and kissed her fuzzy head.

"Were you good for Mr. King?" he asked as the little kitten yawned, somehow looking even more adorable with her little teeth visible.

"She was a sweetheart, and we're all done signing to make the offer," King said as he stood up and pulled them into a gentle side hug.

"Fantastic, if you'd like, let's go out to dinner?" Baron asked as he pressed a kiss to King's forehead, seemingly unbothered that they were in front of the realtor.

She didn't seem to mind at all either, though, so King just went with it.

"Dinner sounds great," he replied as they headed out of the house that he hoped would soon be his.

"I'll let you know if they accept as soon as I can," their realtor said before shaking both their hands, then Tili's outstretched paw.

They thanked her and waved as she left, then got into King's car and started on their way to a little family friend restaurant nearby they'd been wanting to try.

Baron didn't bring up what had been said on the phone call, and King didn't ask. He knew that the man wouldn't put his daughter in any kind of stressful situation, even if he was mad, so if it was fine that they took her out to dinner instead of back to her mom, then he would trust him and they would go enjoy themselves.

Halfway through their meal, and with Tili's kitten covered in alfredo sauce, they got the call that turned their relaxing dinner into one of celebration.

He was going to be a home owner.
