Woah! Another story up so soon? Maybe I'm finally starting to get back into the swing of things!

This is another installment of "From Prince to Pup," from Rai's perspective again. I felt like Strannik hasn't been as prominent in the story as he should, so here's a chapter that focuses a lot of him.

Since King Garoh is still spending a lot of time "training" Ash, Prince Rai decides to go pay Ash's father a visit. Even though Strannik and Ash are the bears' new pets, Rai can't help but feel a little sad that the father and son have been kept from each other for so long. Let's see if he can give Strannik some companionship...

As I've slowly started to figure out where I might want to take this series, I've realized these chapters might end up not being meant to be read in the order I uploaded them. I can't seem to change the order they appear in the folder I have them in, so I'll just start including "Previous chapter" and "Next chapter" links in the descriptions to the next chapter that should take place chronologically.

As always, if you'd like to read the next chapter now, consider pledging to my Patreon. In the meantime, here's the preview:

Mess with the Dire Wolf, You Get the Knot
By: Ash Cinder
Featuring: Rai, Stranník, Garoh, and Ash
I wandered the halls of my father’s castle. I was supposed to have a magic lesson today, but father played a little too rough with my teacher the night before. He literally couldn’t get out of bed to stand on his own two feet. I snickered a bit thinking of how he looked when I visited his chambers to ask why he was late, just laying face down, ass up on his bed with some ice resting on top of it.
As I approached my room my father rounded the corner, leash in paw, with our new pup, Ash at the end of it. The runt had been getting trained by my father for two weeks now, sometimes spending the whole night with my father in his chambers. I’d cum into other pups’ muzzles multiple nights listening to the runt’s moans of pain and pleasure as father raped and molested him repeatedly in his chambers.
“Morning, son!” He greeted.
“Hello, Prince Rai…” The pup spoke timidly.
Father lowered his paw and gently pet the top of his head.
“Heard I put your magic teacher out of commission for the day,” father said with a chuckle.
I giggled.
“Yeah, he’s definitely not going anywhere with that gape you left him with.”
“What can I say? He shouldn’t have said ‘harder daddy’ if he knew he couldn’t handle the morning after. Anyway, I’m still making sure our new pet here knows how to pleasure his king.”
“From the noises I’ve been hearing you make down the hall, it sounds like he’s doing a pretty fine job,” I said, petting the pup.
“The boy’s got an ass and mouth that was made to be fucked by royalty like us.”
“I was thinking I’d go pay his father a visit while you spend time with him.”
“Good idea, son!”
He ruffled my head fur.
“The old dire wolf should be healed up enough by now for you to sample that cock of his. Show him how the muzzle of a real prince feels.”
I grinned and proceeded to our dungeon and found Stranník’s cell. The older canine was sitting up on his cot, looking rather forlorn. I admired his physique, very strong looking arms and thighs, and those sexy blue neon stripes of his. The fur around his muzzle and neck had grown out a little since his capture, giving him the start of a nice beard that he hadn’t been sporting when he was first brought in. I’d have to ask him later if he’d like us to trim it for him or not because honestly, it made him look even sexier.
He looked up, finally noticing me. We stared at each other in silence until he finally spoke up.
“W-Where’s Ashes?” He asked. “Is my pup okay?”
I felt a twinge of sympathy seeing the real concern on his face. Father had been using his son a lot since they got there.
“I just saw him actually,” I said. “He looked a little tired, but he’s okay.”
He clenched his fists and went back to looking at the floor of his cell with a heavy sigh.
I took the keys and unlocked his cell, holding out my paw to him. He looked up questioningly.
“Come on, you’ve spent too much time cooped up in your cell.”
He cautiously took my paw and stood up, towering over me. He was probably about a third the size of my father, but still a pretty typical size for a dire wolf, which was much larger than normal wolves. I led him out of the dungeon and up the stairs.
“How are your injuries?” I asked.
“Still a bit sore, but I’ve healed well.”
“I would have used some magic to help you heal faster, but I’m not advanced enough in my teachings yet to try that.”
I led him down the hall, hearing some audible moaning coming from my father’s chambers as we passed, Stranník’s grip on my paw tightened.
“Heh, I was supposed to have a magic lesson today, but my magic teacher couldn’t make it today.”
I led him into my chambers.
“What happened to him?” He asked.
“Well… uh, he bit off a little more than he could chew, so to speak.”
The old dire wolf chuckled nervously. I think he got what I was implying. I sat him down on my bed and took a seat next to him, scooting close enough for my arm to touch his.
“I know it might not mean much,” I said, “but I’m sorry you haven’t seen your son as much now that my father’s taken such a liking to him.”
He looked down sadly.
“I wish the king would give my poor pup a break. The few times I’ve seen him he looks like he can barely stand.”
I hugged his arm gently.
“I’ll tell you what, I’ll ask my father later if he can at least include you in on his fun with him starting tomorrow. He should know it’s not right keeping a father and son from loving each other for so long.”
He gave me a warm smile.
“I’d appreciate that, Prince Rai.”
I placed my paw on his leg.
“That’s part of why I brought you to my chambers. I thought you could use some companionship. Just because you’re our pups now doesn’t mean I want to see you so down.”
I noticed the pink tip of his member start to emerge from his sheath, it seemed I was at least piquing his interest. He smiled a bit but shook his head.
“I’m not sure I’m in the mood for what you have in mind.”
“That emerging knot of yours says otherwise.”
I quickly slid off the bed and got on my knees, becoming eye level with it.
“I bet you’re real big,” I teased, gently slipping my fingers into his sheath. “Dire wolves always are…”
He gripped the edge of the bed nervously.
“I’m sure you’ll let your prince have a taste…” I said, hovering my muzzle over the tip. “Then again, you technically don’t have a choice in the matter, do you, my pet?”
