An Offer is Made.

It was nice to get to spend a day with my wife, and it made me honestly think about trying to get in a vacation, even though I knew we were so close to product release that I knew there was no chance of me getting any days off. I was currently laying in bed with Sarah snuggled into my arms, we had spent all day together and it had been magical, it almost felt like when we had first started dating each other. We had watched movies, cooked together and had fucked more than we had in the last few months. A part of me dreaded returning to work tomorrow, I wanted to spend more time with Sarah, I wanted the rest of my life to go like this, I had been so focused on work I forgot what it was like to be home. Both my and Sarah's phone went off at the same time, we both idly grabbed our phones and checked to see what we had been sent, mine was a message from Greg, Hey me and Lilly want to talk about what happened tomorrow, do you and Sarah have time to come over tomorrow and talk with us, about our offer? My heart sped up, I looked over to Sarah to see the same surprised expression on her face that I should have on mine, I swallowed and tried to calm myself down to speak to her. "Message from Lilly" I asked as I licked my lips trying to keep myself calm she nodded and I gave a small side, "We have to go and see what this has all been about" I told her. She looked worriedly at me, "I am not going to lie to you honey I am kind of scared of what they want and where this will all go" she said, and it made me wonder. Was she afraid of losing our friends, or was she afraid of feeling something for Greg, I could not lie what had happened was hot but was it a good thing for our relationship? I pulled her into a hug and smiled, "at least this means I am calling out again, so we can spend more time together", she smiled back and we both replied with a yes to the text messages as we set up a time for tomorrow.

Work was not happy that I called out a second time, but I had more important things to deal with at the moment than work and pushing their product to be finished, there was a bit of stress in the back of my mind as I finished up the day. I did do a little work on my computer, reviewing specs and builds the team had sent me, most of the major issues had been worked out and release should go very smoothly. Sarah was mad that I did work but I was mainly doing it to not think about whatever was going to happen in a few hours, If they were planning to swing with us, which was the only thing I thought it could be and I did not know how to handle it. I sighed and tried to focus on my work but I could not, Lilly was hot and the idea of an Animal Kin lover was new and taboo to me, not even bringing in the idea of someone other than my wife. At the same time I was worried what would happen after, the effects we would feel when this was all over, what if I lost Sarah or I could not stand to look at her anymore? I closed my laptop out of stress and stood up to do a little bit of day drinking, not a smart idea but its what my nerves was calling for at the moment and I was going to give into it. We had some beer for when Greg came over but I wanted something a little bit harder, Sarah had some wine but it was not really my thing, I did have some whiskey put back. I grabbed the bottle and poured some in a nice glass with ice, I swirled it in the glass letting the liquid cool as I returned to my seat. I sat back and drank some from the glass, the liquid burned pleasantly and warmed up my insides, as I continued to drink my stress ebbed away. Sarah walked in and put her hands on her hips, "I don't think I have ever seen you drink on your own" she said slightly playfully, I sighed "yeah I am a bit stressed about Greg and Lilly today" I admitted,

Sarah walked over and measuredly rubbed my shoulder, "Mind if I join you with some wine and we can talk" she asked, I nodded slightly even though I was worried to bring up the topic with her. She left and returned with a full glass, taking a seat next to me on our couch, she took a gentle sip "so what's going on honey" she asked me, I looked at her. Her eyes where locked onto me, there was care in her eyes with a touch of worry, I sighed and hung my head, "the other day was great, fun even but I don't know what they're going to ask". I felt her hand reassuringly rub my shoulder as I continued, " What if we go with whatever they want and it ruins our relationship, what if one of us loves it and the other hates it, I don't want to lose you" I finished off my drink as I finished my sentence. She pulled me into a big hug, "baby you know you could never get rid of me, I love you so much, times are hard for me now because how much you work but I know you do it for me and that means everything to me" she said as she planted a soft kiss on the side of my cheek. "I feel so bad" I started before taking a long pause, "I leave you here all day and just work, all the time it feels like I don't have a life outside of work, but I do not want us to lose everything we worked so hard to gain" I continued, she sighed. "Adam you silly man you, the house doesn't matter nor all the nice things, what matters is you, its why no matter what Greg and Lilly offer us we will decide together as husband and wife", I looked up at her and smiled. I pulled her into a big hug and we kissed passionately, I could taste the sour wine on her soft lips, when we stopped she pulled back with a smile. "How about we get a few more drinks in us and go see what they want" she asked, I nodded and got up to go fix me another drink, we ended up getting slightly tipsy as we drank and talked, it was a good moment, something we had needed for a long time.

When it came time to go visit our neighbors I still felt slightly worried, the buzz helped dull this feeling but not completely erase it from my mind, even though she was trying not to show it Sarah seemed worried, and slightly excited. That last part added fuel to the stress burning inside me, our talk had removed most of my worries but there was still a small part of me that thought she really wanted to fuck Greg after the other night. It would be lying if I said I did not feel the same about Lilly but I felt no excitement toward it, it had been a hot moment I could not deny that, but I almost felt like Sarah was hopping it would happen once more. I did my best to bury these thoughts and instead focus on the moment, like she had said no matter what they offered we would decide together as husband and wife, I trusted Sarah and knew she would never purposely hurt me. We left the house hand and hand, slowly we walked over to Greg and Lilly's house and knocked on the door. As we stood there I went over my mind how many times we had been to this house, on double dates and just to hang out but this was the first time I truly felt anxious about being here, the door opened held aloft by Greg. He was wearing his casual clothes of shorts and a loose Tee shirt, he had a cold beer in his hand, he gave a smile and invited us in with a wave. Greg was acting totally normal and that unnerved me, I thought I caught a glance of him starring at Sarah's ass as we entered, but I could not be certain and it could easily be my mind playing tricks on me. Greg lead us to their living room, and got us a seat on the couch and offered us a drink just like any double date here, I probably should of said no and maybe Sarah was going to but I agreed and she did after me. Greg brought us each a cold beer and Lilly entered the room and both of them stood in front of us, I chugged some beer feeding into the buzz I already had going as the stress and fear rose inside of me.

Greg started off talking first, "Listen Adam and Sarah I know things got a little crazy the other night but we kind of want to talk about what happened and what we want". An unsettling silence settled over the room, Lilly sighed and sat down before speaking, "Look we could draw this out, but I don't really see the point so we are just going to be direct and forward with it" Greg laid his hand on his wife shoulder and spoke next. "We are a bit of an odd couple to say the least, most animal kin stick to their own species, and we got a lot of looks from every animal kin we encountered", Lilly picked up after her husbanded finished speaking. "Humans did not like us either mainly because I am a lioness and humans tend to have an unconditional fear for big cat Animal kin, except for you" she said with a small twinkle in her eye, " yeah you greeted us and welcomed us with out any judgement and have been nothing but good to us, treated us like friends, family even" Greg added. Lilly smiled and there was a light purr under her voice as she started to speak, "we see you as family, and a family is what we have wanted for a long time, but Greg is...incompatible with me, we can't have cubs due to being different species", Greg nodded before speaking "pups are a no go for us, and due to all the government reforms there are basically no orphanages or orphans left anymore". Me and Sarah looked at each other slightly confused at where all of this was going, our two friends must of picked up on that, as Lilly slid down out of the chair onto her knees, she grabbed Sarah's hands and looked at her. "We want you to join our family, different Animal kin species can't have children together but humans can with any animal kin, I want Adam's cubs and for Greg to give you his puppies" Lilly said sincerely. I spit out my beer and Sarah nearly choked on air as Lilly said this, "I know its a lot to ask but we are not looking for surrogates, we want to be be one happy family, we would date and be lovers and be in love" she added, a worried look on her face. Lilly turned to me "Adam you're such a good man, I love both you and Sarah so much" Greg stepped up to Sarah, "I think you are such a kind and fun woman, I could never see my life without either of you in it" he said. Me and Sarah took a moment before I spoke up, "This is a lot to take in, but me and Sarah promised whatever you offered we would talk about together so can we have a moment" I asked, there where small tears in the corners of Lilly's eyes but she nodded and they both left, I turned to my wife, this was going to be one of the most important conversations we would ever have.
