She has a very special piece of my heart. Aika, she has served Psyiah and I for a number of months now. Obedient and attentive; qualities one hopes to find in a pet. Aika was this and so much more. As Psyiah and I got to know her we fell more and more in love with her. Psyiah especially.
Anni: “How’s your training going? you’ve been at it pretty hard.”
Aika: “It’s been going great!”
Aika: “Though I’m considering taking a break from it.”
Anni: “How come?”
Aika: “It’s been keeping me away from you and Psyiah too long.”
Anni: “Yes……it’s been hard to say the least.”
Aika: “Master?” Aika tilts her head, fidgeting a little.
Anni: “Yes dear?”
Aika: “I… I missed you a lot.”
Anni: Anni sighs softly. “My pet, I know sometimes I can be a little hard on you but…” She chokes back a tear. “I um…. yea. It has been hard.”
Aika: Aika sniffles and wipes her eyes, a tear had formed without her knowing. She leans over with shaky breath and plants her lips onto Anni’s without a word, placing one hand on her Master’s thigh.
Anni: Anni’s hands instantly land on Aika’s cheeks, she leans in, pressing her lips into her pet’s as though it might be the last kiss they ever share. Anni’s heart races and her body sweats. She kisses her pet long, firm and lovingly.
Aika: Aika’s heart is pounding so hard she’d be surprised if Anni couldn’t hear. The raw ache for her Master that was flowing through her body was intense, her lips push harder against Anni’s, funneling all of her emotions into it as her other arm wraps around Anni’s neck.
Anni: Anni’s hands tremble as she holds onto her pet. Tears stream from her eyes as she loses the battle to maintain composure. Her lip quivers as she tastes Aika’s sweet lip between her own. Anni’s blood courses through her veins as her heart pounds, matching that of her pet.
Aika: Aika’s body is pressed against Anni’s, their sweat slicked skin rubbing as Aika keeps the kiss going. She feels the soft drops of her Master’s tears on her face which causes her to have tear drops of her own. Her hands rub against Anni’s back, feeling all over, not wanting to let go of her lover.
Anni: One of Anni’s hands moves from Aika’s cheek around to the back of her neck. Anni tips her head to the side a little as she pulls Aika in. Anni can feel Aika emotionally collapsing triggering a chain reaction. Anni begins to sob as she holds her pet in her arms kissing her and channeling every ounce of love she feels for her pet through her lips.
Aika: Aika breaks the kiss as she hears Anni start to sob. She soon follows suit, tears streaking down her cheeks as she buries her face into Anni’s shoulder, embracing her Master tightly. Her body trembles with emotion, ache and love both consuming her in the moment.
Anni: Anni leans into Aika, wrapping her arms around Aika’s shoulders and neck. She buries her face into Aika neck, sobbing. “Oh gods Aika, I’ve missed you so much I just can’t…….” All that can be heard is Anni and Aika sobbing. Anni tries to collect herself but fails and kisses Aika’s neck, tears streaming from her face.
Aika: Aika just holds her Master, sobbing and sniffling as she nuzzles Anni’s neck. Anni’s presence is comforting to her. “Master I missed you so so much… I cried myself to sleep so many times when I didn’t see you for a while… I…I love you Anni….” Aika chokes out the last words with emotion.
Anni: All Anni can do is nod into Aika’s shoulder. After a few moments Anni collects herself and squeaks out a few words. “I…..I……” Anni sniffles. “you are…… just……” She gasps. “……so s s s special to me…” Anni breaks down crying again.
Aika: Aika squeezes Anni tight, saying nothing but nodding. She starts to plant kisses on Anni’s shoulder, one after another as they both hold each other. “Oh Master…”
Anni: Having gathered herself together once more she sniffles and gives her pet a warm hug. “mmmmm my sweet Aika. I couldn’t have asked for a better pet than you.” Anni moves so they are forehead to forehead and nose to nose. “I love you so much.”
Aika: Aika sniffles and smiles, looking into Anni’s beautiful eyes and nodding gently. “And…” She sniffles, “and I couldn’t have asked for a better Master than you…”
Anni: Anni smiles and closes her eyes, just enjoying the quiet moment. She takes a deep breath.
Aika: Aika closes hers as well, keeping her grip on Anni and simply basking in the moment, not wanting to let go.
Anni: Anni smiles. “Yea. so……” She giggles lightly. “Yea.” Anni eases back so she is sitting down again, she wipes the remaining tears from her eyes and smiles at Aika.
Aika: Aika wipes her own tears and giggles. “Yea… hehe.. it’s good to be back Master…”
Psyiah: Psyiah walks down stairs after her shower. She is in her clean bikini and smiles as she walks up to see Anni and Aika. “Hey you two!” She looks at them and notices their eyes are both red, and can hear them sniffling. “Girls….. are you.. are you both okay?”
Anni: Anni nods. “mmhmmm come, come….come sit with us.” Anni motions for Psyiah to join them in the water. “I um….. yea. come sit.”
Aika: Aika nods and sniffles, wiping her face again as she giggles. “H-Hi Master Psyiah.”
Psyiah: Psyiah sits close to the girls. “What is up you two?” She seems also sad looking at the two caressing their backs.
Anni: Anni sniffles a little. She turns to gaze from Aika to Psyiah once more. “Well look at us. All three of us together again.”
Aika: Aika chokes out a laugh mixed with a sigh, nodding as she gazes between her two Masters.
Psyiah: Psyiah smiles and nods. “Yes baby.” Her smile gets bigger. She pulls them both in to hug them both. “I love you two so much!” She purrs happily.
Anni: Anni wraps her arms around the two and gives them a big squease. “Look at us, a happy little family.” She slowly releases her squeeze and sits back again. She lets out a sigh of happiness. “So how are you two doing; together I mean? Hows the new relationship going?”
Aika: Aika looks over to Psyiah silently, smiling at her girlfriend.
Psyiah: Psyiah smiles and blushes. “It has been wonderful!” She looks at Aika’s light blue eyes. “It has been wonderful…” Her voice trails off.
Anni: Anni smiles at Psyiah. “I’m glad to hear that. I am glad that you have someone you can count on when I am away.” There is a long pause. “Um…..there is something I need to do…..Aika.” Anni turns from Psyiah to Aika. “Um…..I ugh…..” Anni raises two trembling hands out of the water and puts them behind Aika’s head. She stares into Aika’s eyes.
Aika: Aika looks back at Anni’s eyes, not sure what her Master is going about. She tilts her head in confusion, gazing back with wide eyes. “Yes Master?”
Psyiah: Psyiah looks at Anni, a bit puzzled as she trembles. She remains quiet and looks at the two. Her heart seems to pound as she senses love in the room.
Anni: Anni lets out a sigh, gathering up her courage. With shaky hands she moves her fingers to the clasp on the back of Aika’s collar. There is an audible click. With the collar clasp held together with her hands Anni begins to speak. “Aika, when you first came into our lives we had barely just met. You were a meek and shy dragon girl who needed a home. Through the months we have known you, you have grown and so have we. We care for you more now than ever before. Especially my wife. I have seen the love between you two grow into something beautiful and amazing. Something far stronger of a bond than that of a master and her pet. It is for this reason….” Tears escape Anni’s eyes once. Her throat tightens as she squeaks out the last words. “….. I release you.” Anni pulls the two halves of the clasp apart, opens the collar and removes it from Aika’s neck. She lowers it to Aika’s hands and closes Aika’s fingers around it. “Go to her Aika. Love her and share your life with her as I share mine. I love you.”
Psyiah: Psyiah looks at Anni, her eyes widen. A tear runs down her cheek. Soon multiple as she hears her wife’s words. She looks at Anni and smiles, her eyes now filled with tears. She whimpers hearing her wife speak. She looks at the love and the dedication her wife has shown and more tears run down her face. She begins to sob uncontrollably. Her voice is gone, and unable to speak. She just sobs at the words, of how much love her wife has for her and the understanding of her love to Aika. She hugs her wife and Aika. She cries loudly as her heart pounds intensely, as if wanting to rip out of her chest. Although she is sad, her tears are also of joy. Joy of a new chapter in her life, a new chapter with a girlfriend… with Aika.
Aika: The sound of the click was jarring to Aika, her hearing seeming to zone everything else out except that. The words that soon followed made Aika gasp, tears starting to pool again in her eyes. As Anni removes the collar, her body tingles, the familiar presence of the band no longer there. She trembles lightly, lip quivering as she opens her mouth and struggles to find words. After a few moments she chokes out, “A-Anni…” Her hands grip the collar shakily, a million emotions swirl inside of her as she doubles over and sobs uncontrollably, clutching the collar to her chest.
Anni: Anni smiles and throws her arms around her wife and her dear friend Aika. She pulls them in for a big group hug as they all sob together. Tears running down their faces as they huddle together at the dawn of a new period in their lives together.
Psyiah: Psyiah hugs them both. She smiles through her tears as she sees Aika holding onto the collar. She cries louder as the memories runs through her mind. Happy memories and memories of dedication. She kisses Anni’s forehead then her girlfriends. She feels the tears still rolling down her cheeks.
Aika: Aika holds the collar to her chest, crying as she remembers old moments. Happy and sad, all running through her head. She cries for a bit before sniffling and wiping her eyes. She looks up at Anni and Psyiah with a gentle smile before bringing the collar back up and reclasping it around her neck. She takes a deep breath before speaking softly. “I will continue to wear this collar… not as a symbol of being a pet, but as a special bond… to both of you…”
Anni: Anni puts her fingers to her own collar. She wears it for the same reason. She recalls her master and the life they shared together. She smiles at Aika. “I would like that Aika, very much. I love you.” Anni puts one hand on Aika’s cheek and gives her a quick kiss.
Psyiah: Psyiah looks at Aika and bursts out in tears. Tears of joy. “AAIIIKKAA!!” She cries loudly embracing her girlfriend.
Aika: Aika giggles and embraces Psyiah. Her girlfriend. “Hehe that’s me!” She sniffles, nuzzling Psyiah before looking over to Anni and giving her a smile. “And I love you too, Anni…”
Anni: Anni sits back and lets the two embrace, she smiles, happy as can be. “Awe…… so sweet.”
Aika: Aika gives Psyiah a kiss on the cheek before wiggling her way out of Psy’s grip. She sits back and looks over to Anni. “So um, how do you feel?”
Anni: “In love…” Anni giggles. “We love you sweetie, you are more to us than a pet.” You are a part of our family. I am so happy to see you and Psyiah together. It just melts my heart.”
Aika: Aika smiles, a small pang in her heart at the mention of not being a pet but she forgets about it soon after. “I’m… happy beyond words. A little melancholy, I’ll be honest but… happy. I’m so glad to be in your lives.”
Aika, if you are reading this, I would leave you this final message: In my purse I carry your scale. A small piece of your soul which I will never let go of. I love you with a love unbinding.
