Coyote Tricks: The Bone Eaters Well

Sorry for the delay in posting, between computer problems, the database problems at AFF and the holidays I haven’t been able to do much work preparing chapters for posting. The good news is I have this entire story written out now, there is much action and story coming up but for now more character development and yaoi (Yea!). If you have not read the warnings and disclaimers in the first chapter, please do so now before proceeding. This chapter is rated NC-17 for Yaoi, fun in the bath and psychological nudity.

Bathtime

Kit closed the outer door and leaned against the doorframe still shaking with anger.
‘Yes maybe submitting to me is dishonorable but damn it Shippo knew that when he did it.’ He thought. ‘It’s none of Toshiro’s business. Just what the hell is wrong with mating with me anyway?’
He took a deep breath and looked around. This was the first time he had been in the main bathroom. The previous days he had used the western style bathroom with a shower off the main guest room Spirit Singer was staying in. The room he was in had a sink, washer, dryer and laundry hampers. There were two doors leading off it. He opened the one on his left.
‘What the hell is this?’ he thought looking at a porcelain lined rectangular bowl set in the floor. It had a raised hood at one end and the inside sloped down towards that end.
‘It’s too small to be a bathtub’
“It’s a toilet” Shippo said coming up behind him.
“Okay…How do you sit on it?”
“You don’t, you pee in it like a urinal and to do other stuff you squat.”
“That sounds uncomfortable” Kit said sounding dubious.
“A little but far more sanitary than your western toilet seats, you will find a great deal of Japanese culture revolves around being clean.”
“Well when in Rome” Kit said stepping up and following Shippo’s directions took care of his aching bladder.
After Shippo took care of his needs as well, he led Kit to the other door.
“Now for your first civilized bath” Shippo said. “First we remove our clothes out here.”
Shippo removed his kimono and Kit followed suit with his sleep pants putting them all in a hamper. Shippo led him into the next room. The entire room was tiled with drains set in the floor. Half the room was taken up with a large tub big enough for several people to use at once. Steam was rising off the water. Next to the tub were two short little stools under a pair of shower heads on hoses.
“First we wash our bodies there” Shippo said indicating the stools and showers. “The tub itself is for soaking. Then we repeat the process.”
“Alright” Kit said, not being one to object to a nice hot soak.
“I would like to use this for the first wash” Shippo continued holding up a bottle of the special cleaner he had given Kit in Colorado, the cleaner that would remove the scent markers.
Kit looked hurt. “Am I really that much of an embarrassment to you?”
Shippo looked him straight in the eye and answered, “No you are not. Yes I do suffer a ‘loss of face’ having you as an alpha but if I wasn’t willing to accept that I wouldn’t have submitted to you. At the time you needed it and I was willing gave that to you. If you want to maintain that status, I will not argue. I want the world to know I share my bed with you.”
Kit’s eyes brightened with this announcement. ‘He is not rejecting me again?’
“But,” Shippo continued, “I would rather share it as equals.”
Comprehension dawned on Kit’s face. “You mean…”
“Yes if you are willing. I don’t think either one of us is ready to take on a life mate right now. I’m also fairly sure you really don’t want to be the alpha of my clan, particularly when you would be the youngest one in it. Do you agree?” Shippo said with a grin.
“Yes” Kit answered him after a moment.
“Alright then unless we both agree otherwise we will make love from now on facing one another.”
Kit nodded his head in agreement. Shippo smiled and taking Kit in his arms kissed him. Then he led Kit over to the showers.
“First things first” he said and proceeded to hose Kit down and applied the special cleaner. Kit reciprocated in turn. They both took great pleasure in scrubbing the other. They had to repeat the process three times before their noses assured them the scent markers were gone.
After a final rinse, they got into the tub. Kit found the water very hot, like a good hot tub. They sat in the corner side by side. Shippo admonished Kit that he was supposed to relax and let the heat soak into his bones. Kit however could not ignore the heat of the body next to his. Shippo gave up any hope of teaching the coyote how to enjoy a bath for now as Kit leaned over and started licking at his ear. They fell into each others arms and kissed passionately. Kit’s hand wrapped around Shippo’s rapidly hardening shaft and stroked it.
“I want you inside me” Kit said into Shippo’s ear.
Shippo grinned and lifted himself out of the water to sit on the side of the tub. He was glad to see Kit pull from ether space what they needed. The coyote quickly made the necessary preparations and sitting astride Shippo lowered himself onto the fox demon’s hardness. Kit grunted as he hit bottom and threw his arms around Shippo, hungrily attacking his mouth as he started riding up and down. Their passions rose quickly and soon Shippo cried out his release. The feel of Shippo’s seed filling him pushed Kit over the edge as he too reached his climax and splattered his hot spunk all over their chests. They sat there wrapped in each others arms as they spent the last of their passion.

Kit at last started to pull free and get back into the tub but Shippo stopped him.
“We have to wash off first; you don’t get into the water sweaty or covered in cum.” He said.
They stepped over to the showers again and Kit look anxious as Shippo picked up the bottle of special cleaner. Relief washed over him as Shippo dropped it into the trash can.
