Reincarnated as the Only Human

Kalia PoV

After departing from the clearing when Mama had activated the Ritual that she was so eager to utilize, we made our way back out into the city and just began to walk around aimlessly at first, finding ourselves in the markets just looking around at whatever seemed interesting.

There were some pretty dresses, flashy little silver pieces of jewelry, some seeds and mouthwatering treats, but nothing too impressive nor anything that I felt obligated to buy, least of all because of the single glaring fact that Inik was so easily walking with me hand in hand.

Feeling her wing behind me, having her hand clasped over mine, seeing how confident and relaxed she looked as she just let me pull her in whichever direction seemed the most interesting was more of what I wanted to see than any of the boring stalls around us.

”The longer you look the more arrogant I’ll feel~!”

Her chippy words paired with that brazen smirk was what made my heart flutter so easily in my chest, and she seemed to know it as she leaned down to whisper ”Though... I suppose you’ve already made me such an arrogant futanari, what with you being so damn gorgeous and all... Making me so full of myself since I have a woman like you on my arm...”

Sniffing, I hid my arousal at her words and just muttered ”Don’t get too full of yourself now... that might make you unattractive.”, earning a playful swat on the rear as she growled ”I’ll get full off of you then... and you’ll be full of me...”, sending a shiver down my spine that she definitely felt.

”Well, instead of wandering around aimlessly and doing nothing, how about we head on over to the Auction House and visit Heather? She still needs to get a goodbye, as per your request... Wouldn’t mind just leaving it at a later or leaving fate to do its thing, but oh well.”

”She was your coworker and friend, Inik. You cannot simply leave her behind without actually saying goodbye, or telling her that you are quitting your job because you have a new responsibility. That is actually unattractive.”

That made her flinch as she noticed the seriousness of my tone, and upon hearing her sigh and nod her head I began to walk her over towards the Auction House, forcing her to take some action regarding this other Birdkin that she had apparently been friends with, alongside whomever else she might have had an amicable relationship with. 𝘧𝓇ℯℴ𝓂

”Fine, fine... Hey, just saying though, Heather’s gonna try hitting on you again the moment she sees you, and that’s-”

”Entirely what I am expecting at this point, Inik. Also, are you going to be the one to tell me that she’s going to be crass or something? You? The one who’s idea of flirting and courting me in the beginning was telling me that my ass was fat and that you liked having your talons on my face?”

Her confidence from before melted away as she scratched her cheek and looked away, not giving me a reply and instead just walking a little quicker as she left it at that, making me a little proud that I had found something that got my wife to be meek and embarrassed.

Fixing her clothes, the Bearkin stared at me from the side and watched as I gasped for air, the sudden surprise attack on my lips leaving me confused yet appreciated despite knowing damn well that she wanted Eleanor to remain unaware of this.

”Don’t say a damn word.”

Gertude actually growled at me and pointed her finger at my chest like I was going to get her into trouble with the law, so of course I raised my hands in mock surrender and shook my head, letting her know that there was nothing coming out of me at all.

Just a tad bit of precum, of course, and perhaps an almost silent whimper thanks to her heavy stare, but that was neither here nor there.

Finishing up her attempts to conceal the creases from where I had grabbed at her to steady myself, she just left me standing in the back all on my own as she returned to her work, and after a few moments of gathering my wits I was about to go and rejoin her, only to pause as someone walked into the back at the same time.

Eleanor gently closed the door behind herself and paused as she stared at me, the recognition of what had happened flashing through her eyes as she took not of my lips, which were undoubtedly a little puffy and red.

Before I could say anything she just stepped forwards and grabbed my hands, holding them in hers and running her thumb over my own as she whispered ”Are you and Mama getting along better-”, making me feel a little relief as she kept it at that, only for me to stiffen in multiple ways when that inevitable ”Dama..?” came out a second later.

This Bearkin knew what she was doing with that single word, and yet she had no issue at all using it against me like a weapon, beating me over the head with it and ensuring I was going along with her flow as she continued to stare up at me with those round, innocent eyes of hers.

”I... Yes, we are... I think..? She’s the one you’d have to ask. And..! Stop calling me that!”

That last part came out as a rather embarrassed hiss, my emotions unable to maintain the whiplash that it came with since I had never experienced this before; I prided myself as a rather stable person capable of making rational, logical decisions, but everything this girl did just had me reeling.

And the worst part was the fact that she knew it, and she gave no fucks at all about it as she just repeated ”Dama...” so easily, like it had no weight to it at all; like it wasn’t turning me on as she stared at me while biting her lip, like she wasn’t the one who had jerked me off last night while whispering that to me.

It wasn’t what I was expecting, but my arousal didn’t win out this time as I gently pushed her away and said ”Be careful saying stuff like that! What if Gertude came back and heard that?! She’d get a very wrong idea and probably gut me like one of the carcasses I bring back!”

Thankfully Eleanor seemed to understand that, stepping back and nodding before giving me a small, embarrassed smile, saying ”You’re right... I should be more careful.”, making me let out a sigh of relief before groaning as she added ”Dama.” at the end once more.

This girl... she was absolutely trouble, and she either was just a natural at it or she knew it and embraced it... but either way she was definitely going to cause me some ’problems’ going forwards...
