Page 39 of Learning to Run

“Yes, you’re going to love your tail. Yes, you are.” Thealmost babytalk sound to Bates’s tone delighted Gareth and seemed to take hislove of praise to a whole new level. “That’s my good pup. You look so cute andyou look so good in your collar, pup.”

That got almost model-level squirms from the attention whoreas he cocked his head to show off his collar, but it let me grab the smallpacket of lube without making Gareth any more excited than he already was.

His enthusiasm made it impossible for me to even rememberwhy I’d been worried to begin with…well, right up until I started playing withhis ass.

I was playing with Gareth’s ass.

Yep, I remembered why I’d been worried.

But Gareth made a low whine as my finger circled around thetight ring of muscles and even Bates almost moaned as he nuzzled against ourpup. “Yes, that’s what you’ve been waiting for. Such a needy pup and you wantto wag and show off what a happy bottom slut you are.”

That had our pup barking happily again and pushing his assup to nudge my finger deeper…and since I could take a hint, I gave him what hewanted. Our attention whore made a happy sound, wiggling and letting out anotherbark as we both gave him lots of love.

One finger didn’t make him very happy, though, and it wasn’tlong before he was clenching around it and whining.

Yep, not subtle in the slightest.

Bates was chuckling and giving the desperate pup more headkisses as I added a second finger which just had Gareth rocking his ass backand making a frustrated bark.

The way he could make his emotion so clear made me marvel,but it was also a good push for me to stop dragging my feet.

Our pup wanted his tail.

So I eased my fingers out and spread the lube on the base ofthe toy and brought it to him. I kissed our pup’s head and snuggled closer as Ipressed it gently into him, loving the low sounds he made. “That’s our goodpup. Relax and let me give you your pretty tail. You’re going to feel so goodand you’re going to look so cute.”

Bates was echoing my sentiment and hugs as I finally seatedthe plug completely into Gareth and watched as the wiggles started in earnest.

I might’ve underestimated how much he’d love his tail, butI’d gotten how perfect he would look right. I’d known he would be the mostwonderful pup as soon as I’d found them online but I’d never actually thoughthe would be my pup.

“Such a good pup for your Handler.” Bates was looking at me ashe stroked Gareth’s head, making it clear that was me. “Wag your tail for him.”

Doing a full-body wiggle, Gareth was trying to figure out howto wag the tail and probably getting the feeling of it all. He shifted his assback and forth before arching and letting out a frustrated bark.

He knew what he was supposed to do, but in all theexcitement or maybe just the newness of it all as he found his pup, he’d pushedit to the back of his mind. I could see Bates debating on whether or not toremind him, and I was having the same mental conversation, but before we couldpush Gareth in the right direction, he got it.

As he clenched down and his tail wagged, his entire body litup and it almost came off the floor. He did it again, barking and wiggling ashe thoroughly enjoyed wagging and the attention he got. He was perfect…theperfect pup and perfectly Gareth.

“Good job, pup.” Bates reached out and ran his hands overGareth’s back, beaming and obviously proud of him. “You did it.”

Wagging a few more times, Gareth turned to me and barkedbefore bumping his head into my chest, nearly sending me tumbling backward.“I’m so proud of you.”

Giving him a hug to make sure he didn’t tip me over, Ilaughed when he wagged and did another full-body wiggle at the same time,clearly showing off. “Such a smart pup.”

He looked so at ease, like he and his pup had enjoyed a nicelong talk, that I kissed his head and pointed to the ball that Bates washolding. “Do you want to play?”

Did he want to perform and get even more attention?

It’d probably been a stupid question because he barked and bouncedas he turned back to Bates and lowered his head down, clearly inviting Bates tothrow the ball. Bates laughed as he rolled the ball across the living room,careful to make sure it would land where Gareth could reach it.

Gareth barked and then charged off to go get the ball, buthe took maybe two steps before he froze and a shiver raced through him. He letout a curious bark and started again, only getting another few steps before hewagged his tail and let out a needy whine.

Part of me wanted to laugh but a bigger part thought it washot as fuck.

“You look so good, pup. Try to go faster. I think you’lllike it.” He seemed to be enjoying himself but he was obviously distracted bythe sensations that raced through him every time he moved. “Wag your tail,pup.”

He clenched and whined as another shiver raced through him,but I knew he wanted more or was at least curious for more. After a second, he crossedthe final few feet as fast as he could and wagged like there was no tomorrow.

Gareth got the ball and he almost got his orgasm too.
