“Nothing. Nothing’s wrong. I… I was wondering…” His voice trailed off, and Brian bowed his head.

“Brian, what were you wondering?”

He lifted his head. “Well, I was wondering. You met my rabbit before, but I haven’t met your lion. I was hoping you’d shift.”

I stepped forward and grabbed his hands. “I’d love to. As soon as you mentioned him, he’s already up pacing in my mind, eager to see you. You don’t have to be nervous asking me that ever.”

“It’s just….”

“What? You’re not scared of me, are you? You know I’d never hurt you.”

“Of course, I know that. It’s just what you roar. It’s not like we could hide it here. Maybe we should wait,” Brian said quietly.

“My lion will probably want to roar, but that’s easily handled. It’s not like I’m going running in Central Park.” Brian lifted his head and grinned. “We can just turn on the TV and say we’re watching National Geographic if anyone knocks to complain.

Brian laughed and nodded his head. I released his hands and slowly unbuttoned my shirt. I could feel the heat of Brian’s gaze as he watched my movements.

“We should have done this a long time ago,” Brian whispered, and I grinned.

“Quit teasing or you won’t see my lion tonight,” I replied.

Brian chuckled and winked. “Lion first and we’ll see what happens after.”

I tilted my head. “You’re not giving me much incentive to wait with the idea of afterward.”

“Come on, drop trou and shift,” he replied with a laugh.

I snickered as I continued to undress. I pulled down my pants and briefs in one swift motion. I locked my gaze on Brian, and he was staring at my cock. Involuntary, I began to harden. I shook my head and closed my eyes. I allowed my lion to come to the forefront, and I felt my body change.

Shifting was second nature and happened in a blink of an eye, as I did it often. The more you did it, and the older the shifter got, the easier it became.

Within seconds, I stood before Brian, transformed into a majestic lion. My tawny fur shimmered under the room's soft lighting, and I shook my massive black mane. I suppressed my urge to roar and looked up at Brian. His mouth hung open, and I could sense his awe but also his excitement. Cautiously, he took a step closer and reached out a hand to touch my mane.

"Edward," Brian whispered, his voice filled with wonder. "You're... incredible and so big.”

I let out a low, rumbling chuff, nuzzling against his hand. I wanted him to feel safe and at ease with my lion, just as he had been with my human form. The image of us running through the trees as rabbit and lion made me chuff.

Brian continued to stroke my mane, and I leaned into his touch. I let loose a rumbling purr at the feel of his scratches. I gazed up at Brian, and his smile was radiant. He gave me a cheeky grin and scratched under my chin, causing my purr to grow louder.

“This is so amazing. I can’t wait to run with you,” Brian said, voicing my earlier thought.

His hands continued to explore my massive body, and I stretched, yawning wide. Brian’s eyes widened at the tiny roar that escaped when I did.

“Wow, what big teeth you have,” he said, staring at my mouth.

I chuffed and nudged his slender body. He giggled at my playful nudge. “Easy, furball. You're strong in this form.”

I chuffed again and closed my eyes. Instantly, I was back in my human form. I immediately grabbed him into an embrace. “How about this form? Too strong for you?”

Brian shook his head. “It’s just right.”

He leaned up and pressed his lips to mine. I deepened the kiss and growled. My cock hardened between us. I wanted him—all of him. No, it was more than want. The desire I felt was second to none. Even with Ellen, I never felt this need.

I lifted him in my arms, and he yelped into the kiss. I didn’t let it deter me from my mission. I moved him toward the bed and laid him gently down. I leaned back from the kiss and stared down into his eyes.

“I want you, Brian,” I said.

“You have me. I’m yours,” he replied breathlessly.
