Chapter 4
Trudi waited to see if her car would try to explode again as she took the same fateful exit that would lead her to the bar but it had been working perfectly since Quinn and Travis’s friend had worked on it. He’d repaired a few other things while he was working on it and it ran smoothly now. She knew she’d just gone straight down the road once she’d started walking but she came to an intersection that should be well after the bar without seeing it.
Turning at a gas station Trudi drove back, not sure how she could have missed the large building but knew she must have. Driving back she laughed out loud as a song began playing on the radio about a woman dancing dirty and it reminded her of her dance with Sabina. That was going to be one of those life events that she remembered for the rest of her life. Her joy at the memory soured as she got back to the exit without seeing the bar.
Confusion and unease filled her. What the hell was going on? Why couldn’t she find the bar? Three more trips up and down resulted in the same thing, no Ursa Major bar in sight.
She’d wanted to surprise the guys, hadn’t told them a word about coming back, but it looked like she was going to have to. The thought of the surprise being spoiled gave Trudi the impetus to try one more time. Looking down at her new outfit, a short electric blue skirt, a black top that pushed her breasts up while revealing pretty much all but her nipples and the bottom of her breasts, and black thigh high skin-tight boots, she knew she couldn’t do an hours walk, which had occurred to her. Nope, one more try. The sun was going down so maybe she’d find it by the lights.
Just as she was about to give up Trudi saw the sign emblazoned with the Ursa Major constellation and pulled into the only parking space available. Taking a deep breath she turned the car off, stepped out of the car and opened the door vibrating from the loudness of the music inside. These people partied hard and liked their music at an almost painful level. She loved it!
Trudi stepped through the door and immediately stopped. The room was full of bears. In the time it took her to blink the bears were people staring at her and shouting their approval. Then she was screaming with laughter and joy, the moment forgotten as Quinn, Travis, and Sabina launched themselves from their stations, the bar and a table top, straight at Trudi. She would have been knocked down if Sabina hadn’t reached her first and pulled her close. She’d never forget the sight of Quinn and Travis leaping over that bar counter or Sabina launching herself like a cat from that table!
“You’re here!” Travis shouted.
“Trudi!” Sabina screamed.
“Darling woman!” Quinn whispered against her neck into her ear.
“My loves!” Trudi responded. Because she did, she loved them all, differently but the same. She hadn’t realized just how much she couldn’t breathe until she saw them and she was finally able to take a deep breath. She barely knew them but she knew all she needed to know. These were her people and this is where she belonged.
Sabina pulled her onto a table as “their song” began to play and Quinn and Travis brought them their drinks. Before she knew it the entire bar was dancing and all she could think about was dancing with these people. Nothing more, for now, she just wanted to dance and laugh, and enjoy being with the people that made her feel whole. Sabina behaved herself at first but soon, as the tequila flowed and Trudi showed off some of the dance moves she’d learned in a Cuban bar in Atlanta, things heated up.
Sabina looked over at Quinn as he walked up and spoke to him, “My turns coming, brother, but not tonight, I know. She’s yours but I want my chance, soon. Understand?”
“That’s up to Trudi, you know it’s always her choice but I’d appreciate the chance to make an impression before you work your magic.”
“Brother, I don’t think she’s going far. In fact, I’m pretty sure she’s here for life now, right, Trudi?” Sabina asked, looking over at Trudi.
“For life, Sabina. Ursa Majors for life. Besides, I know you aren’t ready to settle down and though I do want my chance with you I want to settle in with Quinn and Travis first. Then I can work my way into the proper way of things here. I know life here is different, sexuality is fluid, but this first step is huge. Huge!” Trudi said with her own smile, just for Sabina.
“It is my lovely, go and enjoy yourself,” Sabina said as she pushed her long, curly black hair out of her face. She kissed Trudi then disappeared into the crowd now all but fucking. Trudi had a feeling that would be happening before long. She would miss it because she’d be having her own little private session above stairs.
The music changed as they went up the stairs, a German industrial band driving the party-goers even harder and the cries of pleasure started to fill the air. Trudi hoped it drove her men on to the same passion. Apparently it was because this time it was Travis that had her up against the wall, pulling her scraps of clothes off as Quinn waited impatiently behind. Finally relenting with a laugh Travis pulled her to the bed, both men’s clothes disappearing in an instant, and they all rolled together on the bed until Quinn was on her right and Travis on her left. Quinn was devouring her mouth, his need and just how much he’d missed her apparent in the way he kissed her while stroking her face.
The tenderness he showed was almost tear-inducing but Trudi sucked it up and let him have his moment. He expressed his feelings with this kiss; his emotions clear as his tongue slowly stroked hers. Trudi was distracted as Travis began to kiss the side of her neck, his tongue hitting a spot that made her pulse race and her tummy tighten. As Travis’s hands moved down her body, over her chest and down her hips his lips followed, her own mouth still entwined with Quinn’s.
Travis discovered that a spot just between her shoulder blades would break her attention from Quinn and left her gasping for more. Quinn figured out the game and moved down her front, Trudi on her side between them. He went for the obvious, her nipples, which made her pull his head close but she let him go as he joined in the exploration, the rediscovery of Trudi. Applying slight pressure to her hips Quinn discovered that simply holding her hips was a pleasurable experience for her. Travis found out that massaging her ass produced the same results and left her pushing her buttocks back at him, begging for more attention there. Then Quinn found a feather and Travis a rubber ball that he used to massage her with in a variety of places.
By the time Travis pushed her onto her back and settled between her thighs Trudi was a quivering mass of awakened nerve endings, her body stroked to a state of pleasure she wasn’t sure she could bear. The whispered words they spoke, encouragement, endearments, pleasure with her reaction filled her mind with images, with the feeling of being cherished while they worshiped her body. Whatever people outside of this bar might think, Trudi knew that she was being loved, her body a temple that these two men devoted themselves too. She was loved and the moments of pleasure were eclipsed by the care and joy their exploration revealed. Trudi wanted to give that back, as much as she could, but for now, she let them welcome her home.
Travis came to her first, entering her body with care, their eyes wide open and locked together. She saw the moment he found the right rhythm in the way his gaze went inward more than she felt it, she went with him, following as Quinn watched from her side, letting them have this moment. Travis poured all of his energy into his movements, controlling the power of his thrusts to ensure each one made Trudi gasp in pleasure. Pulling her legs up to his shoulders he pulled her closer, pushing deeper into her body until she couldn’t keep her eyes open anymore and let her head fall back. She knew the words were coming though, before he spoke.
“Open your eyes and look at me Trudi. Let me see the beauty of your soul as you explode around me.”
If that was his price for giving her so much she’d gladly pay. Opening her eyes she couldn’t help but moan at the sight of him above her, her legs now hitched around his shoulders as she moved with him, their hands twined together as their bodies joined. They moved, their bodies synced together, until Trudi took one deep breath. Travis knew what was coming and chose that moment to run his hands between them, seeking out the spot that would finish her struggle to the ultimate pleasure. She stopped breathing as the pleasure came in shockwaves, at first close together, every muscle in her body reacting, then slower, until Travis let himself go then they came together quickly again, her breaths coming in sobs as she tried to breath and fall into a form of non-existence all at the same time. She didn’t want to leave this world of pleasurable peace, this place where nothing existed but the feeling of ecstasy.
They soothed her as she came back to Earth, both on each side of her, Quinn more than ready to take Travis’s place. Trudi reached for him with a smile, her own devotion to Quinn and Travis obvious. Quinn’s love was not as tender however but it was just as consuming. He took her mouth before he slid into her, needing to taste her, to feel her breath against his lips. Quinn’s love was a demand, a demand for love in return and Trudi pushed him over to give him what he demanded.
She straddled him, making him take her breasts in his hands as she ground down onto him, setting her own pace, her demands answering his own. Trudi rode Quinn, pushed him, not letting up on him, not slowing down when he moved his hands to take her waist, an attempt to slow her down, but now she wanted to see him come, she wanted him to give her all, and she would not slow her pace. She let her passion go, one of the things these people, these men demanded, and took what she wanted while giving him exactly what he needed.
The vulnerability that appeared on Quinn’s face, the total loss of his own control astonished her as he finally let go and let her have her way. Trudi didn’t follow him immediately, though she wanted to, she wanted to watch him more and just as his look of amazement started to change into a relaxed look of contentment she allowed herself to go again, one last flight to heaven before she rested for a while. She fell against his chest when the sensations calmed, promising herself she was going to explore these two a little more after she’d had a couple of more drinks and something to eat. Maybe one of them would make her a sandwich, she thought just before she fell into a light sleep.
Twenty minutes later she was awake and amazingly there was a sandwich on the side table of the bed, an olive on a toothpick stuck into the rather large concoction of meat and cheese. She didn’t think she’d be able to eat it all but she did as she sat up to hear what her men had to say.
“Trudi, we have to tell you something. We should have told you the first time around but we didn’t know if you were coming back or not.” Quinn started.
“This may be a little shocking,” Travis revealed, “but if you let us show you then explain I think it will be alright.”
They were really worried about this, Trudi thought, but she had an idea of what was coming. Smiling she watched as both men went from being humans to huge bears within the blink of an eye. Travis changed into a black bear and Quinn a brown bear. She looked at them, scratched each ones chin, looked into their eyes and saw that each one was cognizant of who she was, of who they were, then laughed as she sat down. It was a good thing they were all naked she thought as they shifted back to their human forms, clothes were expensive to replace.
She knew both men were perplexed at her laughter and she kissed each one then stood away from them. Closing her eyes and concentrating Trudi revealed her own secret to these men she was falling in love with. As they watched Trudi went from a human being with silvery blonde hair to a small polar bear with white fur and then back to her human shape again.
“Oh.” Travis said quietly.
“How did we not know, why a polar bear?” From Quinn.
“My father was from Alaska, from a shifter tribe there. They thought they were the only ones. I’ve been hiding it for so long I can barely shift anymore. I have to concentrate to do it now. I’ve kept it secret my whole life because I knew what would happen if it was revealed. A freak, studied and prodded, I didn’t want that. So I’ve tried to hide it. Maybe that’s why you didn’t know? My father died when I was young so I don’t know a lot about it and my mother refused to admit it even happened. She’d lock herself in her room for hours praying for the evil to leave me alone. That was her solution, I was evil.”
“But you aren’t, you’re just part of an ancient line of humans. That’s all.” Travis said. I would later learn he was the group’s historian and knowledge keeper. “You’re no different from us, just another type of bear. You’re always welcome here, no matter what, dearest. Always a part of the Ursa Majors, always a part of us. You are ours and we are yours.”
“For life?” I asked, hope and love finally free from the walls I’d built around myself.
“For life,” they replied in unison.
Freedom at last, Trudi thought. Freedom, love, and joy, all she’d ever wanted but wouldn’t allow herself to dream of, and in the most unlikely of places. She was home now, at last.
The End
