"Here you go kitten I made something specially for you." Karyn said with a grin as I entered, holding a plate up in the air so I couldn't see the contents.
*Well, at least it's not the food bowl * I thought to myself. My nose sniffed reflexively, and I liked my lips. *And it SMELLS good at least *
"Bon appetite!" she said, placing the dish down in front of me. I blinked at the contents. A steak. A big, juicy, raw steak! Steak for breakfast? I thought. *That's kinda weird * But apparently my stomach disagreed, because it rumbled in annoyance at my delay. Before I knew it, I had one paw on the t-bone, and was chewing on it with my teeth.
Karyn watched for a minute, giggling. "Well, glad to see you're enjoying it " she said, amused. She scratched my head lightly, eliciting a low purr, then sat down to have some cereal herself.
"Karyn?" I asked after I finished most of my steak. "I think we need to talk a bit.." I finally said a bit uncomfortably.
"Oh?" Karyn asked innocently. "About what, kitten? Does my little pet want to spend tonight as my pillow too?" She asked with a giggle.
I lowered my head a bit in embarrassment, but I licked my lips at the same time, tail swishing. Finally I laughed as well. "actually.. that doesn't sound like a bad idea.." I said with a grin and a winks. Karyn seemed a bit surprised by my response, then looked amused.
"Oh, so you DID enjoy yourself, did you kitten" She smirked victoriously.
I wiggled my head a bit, still a tad embarrassed. "Okay, I admit it. . I did. . enjoy it a bit.. And. . Being feline isn't that bad. . For a little while." I said quickly.
"Oooohh. . so my little pet kitten finally admits it " Karyn crowed.
"But that's just it.. I'm NOT you're 'pet'." I said rather firmly. "And to be honest, you're really kind of starting to. . worry me a bit.. acting the way you are "
The victorious smirk slid from Karyn's face a bit as she seriously considered my comment. "Well.." she said finally. "I guess I can kin of see where you're coming from "
"And It's hard to focus on shifting back too. That. . Worried me a bit. I don't know if it's you. . subconscious. . not wanting me to change. Or, maybe I.. DON'T ant to change.. For various reasons.. " I said, glossing that bit over a bit as Karyn giggled. "Or maybe you're MAKING me not want to change by accident ."
Karyn giggled. "Oh, I'm making you not want to change all right. . but not by accident.. "she said with a wink, sliding her robe off her shoulder a bit.
"Karyn!" I said, trying to be serious. She giggled and nodded, getting a bit more somber.
"I'm being serious though. That's ALL I'm doing. Honest. I can't swear about my subconscious, but I'm certainly not trying to keep you like that, no matter HOW cute and fuzzy you are.. "she winked.
"As for calling you pet Well " Karyn blushed slightly and giggled. "To be honest, I always thought it would be cool to have a big pet cat. And you look so cute like that I know you're not REALLY a pet." She giggled. "I mean, how many people have talking cougars as pets after all? But you play the part sooo well.." She grinned, giving me big cute eyes. "And it's so much fun to pretend that. And it's kind of Kinky.. to be able to tease a guy with no worries like this " She giggled.
"Ummmmmm.." I paused, unsure what to say. At least she wasn't trying to keep me like this. Not consciously, or rather, not consciously by the wish anyway. She seemed pretty honest and sincere about it. And I always knew she always wanted to have pets and animals and such. She always had a great affinity for nature. And heck, I think it would be a bit cool to have a pet cougar too. But BEING the pet
"I'm just trying to have some fun." Karyn continued, grinning. "After all. what else are we supposed to use the stone for? As long as we're not hurting anyone and now that I look so. . Well.. Sexy " she giggled at the word. "I feel a bit giddy about it, and like flaunting it a bit And you're the only male around, and you're so cute like that "
"If you really want to change back though, or into something else, you can. I'll even start NOT wanting you to be a feline if you really want. If this bothers you, I certainly won't make you stay. Buuuttt.. . Then I'll have to find some more suitable clothing ." She said with a giggle and wink.
"Seriously though. It's up to you. You can stay like this and play the pet for a bit, or change back "
I paused in thought, tail swishing in agitation, looking her over. She certainly seemed serious Without realizing it, I stopped looking at her face, my eyes traveling lower Heck, it WAS fun to be able to ogle her a bit. And she told me what she had meant flat out. It's not like she REALLY believed I was her pet. But still
What to do, what to do?
