Book 2  -  A Fantasy  - Alpha and Beta

I had just moved to a new city. I knew no one. Unfamiliar with the city.
No home. Living in a weekly rental motel. At this point, the only thing I
had going on for me, was my 10yr old car and a mid level job. Albeit a
basic job, but it paid for my needs with only a little left over for
wants.

I chose to look for a city where I could find myself, explore my
sexuality and hopefully not be discriminated against like I had been in
my previous home.

I worked during the day and spent most of my nights alone in my room.
This was going exactly as I had planned. But, you know the saying, "all
the best laid plans".

After a couple of weeks, I had decided to venture out and see what there
was to see. I had no idea where to go or what to do, so I just wandered
aimlessly. I had been just walking and looking. I was feeling a very
nervous anxiousness.

As I walk it seemed that I had walk to club row. It seemed there was a
club for everyone and everything.  I had no clue as to which one tobgo
to.

I just stood there for a minute and looked at all the different clubs.
One in particular caught my eye. Not sure why, but there it was and my
feet started pulling me towards it.

Before I knew it, I was standing in front of a club called "The Dawg
Pound". Curiously, I entered, paid my cover charge. As soon as I entered
the club interior,  it dawned on me why they called it "The Dawg Pound".

Everyone was wearing something dog related. Some wore full neoprene dog
masks, half neoprene dog masks and some were in furry dog costumes.

The decor was that of what you may see in a dog park. Fake trees, fire
hydrants, etc. The music was playing. People were talking and laughing
and just having a good ol' time.

This was my first time ever even seeing something like this. I just stood
there mouth wide open and taking in the sights.

Some men wore varying types of collars with leashes hanging down, some
were being lead around by their leashes. Some were just standing around
talking.

Then out the corner of my eye I saw something ro behold. A area with a
half wall that surrounded an area of about 20X20. As sign at the door
indicated that it was called the "Puppy's Playpen".

There was several (I automatically assumed) men on their hands and knees
playing with the men.

I just stood there watching them. It was slightly weird you extremely
intriguing.

"Aren't  they the most adorable things you have ever seen". Said the man
next to me. Startled I just mumbled something unintelligently.

"First time here?"

"Um, yeah."

"New to the scene?"

"Is it that obvious?"

"Just a bit. You've got that deer caught in the headlight look."

"I've just moved and I didn't even know this (waving my hand around) even
existed. It definitely didn't where I came from."

"It can be a bit unnerving to some. Where are my manners?" The man said
as he removed his hood and extended his hand. "My name is Grayson and it
is a pleasure to welcome a newcomer."

"I'm Jack. Nice to meet you." As I shook his hand or rather in a place
like this, I shook his paw.

We just stood there not saying anything until Grayson broke our silence.

"What do you think of the club so far?"

"It's very, um, new and strangely exciting."

"Is that a good thing?" He asked

"I believe so, it is just so far from what I have ever been exposed to.
But it's really cool."

"You're not weirded out are you?"

"Maybe just a bit. Probably from a lack of really understanding what it
is I'm seeing."

"I'd be more than happy to fill you in if you'd like." Grayson said.

"If it wouldn't be a bother. That's part of the reason I moved here, to
find myself, to explore the different gay scenes and to find where I may
possibly feel like I belong in the gay world."

"Well, let me start off by saying this, you do NOT have to feel like you
need to belong to one particular group. Just likebin the straight world,
you go where you are comfortable and don't worry about belonging to a
particular group."

"Unfortunately, I have never felt like I belonged anywhere. There is a
longing to belong and to be accepted. Sounds kinda whiny, but there it
is. I am an insecure 20 something man. Pitiful, I know."

"It's not pitiful to want to belong. We as people are social creatures,
always wanting to belong. This pup play is a way we connect with other
like minded people."

I stood there for a minute trying to take in what Grayson just said.

After a couple of minutes he shook me from my thoughts.

"What're ya thinking Jack?"

"Just taking it all in. Trying to put it all together in my head without
much luck."

"Well, why don't we get out of here and go someplace a bit quieter and
see if I can help you out it together. There is small diner down the
block. It's still quite early and it won't be busy until last call. So we
can talk and you might not be as uncomfortable in a well lit public
place."

"That sounds like a plan. I haven't been in here that long but is a bit
overwhelming."

"Well, let's grab a table and see if I can give you some perspective."

We sat down at a booth. The waitress approached the table to get a drink
order. I had sweet tea and Grayson ordered coffee.

"Where would you like to start Jack?"

"I don't even know where to begin, I have so many questions."

"Why don't I just start explaing and you can ask anything at anytime and
maybe I can help you figure this out."

I nodded my head to the affirmative.

"Well, let's see. Ok, first it is called puppy play. It's  not like
Halloween where you do it once a year. Most of us live like this for a
majority of the time with exceptions. I myself dress like this and embody
my inner pup probably 80% of the time. I don't go to work like this or in
mainstream society.  I do live like this at home 99% of the time, when I
am with like minded people or at the clubs."

I sat there pondering what has been said and acknowledged what Grayson
has said so far with a nod of my head.

"There are those that do it more or less. It is all on what the person
feels like doing. It is a form of role-playing. There different roles.
You have Masters, men who don't done the doggy wear, you have Alpha pups
that are like masters except they wear the doggy gear and then you have
beta pups that more or less submit to a Master or Alpha."

This was becoming more and more intriguing as Grayson went on.

"What do you mean submit to a Master or an Alpha?"

"They more or less do what they are told. There are different extremes of
submission and types of submission.  Again it is based on the individual
tastes."

"Okay, you are wearing pup gear, so it is safe to say that you are not a
Master which means that you are an Alpha  or a Beta, right?"

"Correct. I am an Alpha Dog. But as an Alpha I am a rare breed. I do not
expect my Beta to submit to me. All I require of my Beta is to be honest,
loyal and to let me care for them. Preferably someone I can love and that
will love me back. But, sometimes it just doesn't work like that and that
is more often then not what happens when you join a pack. It's not love,
but honesty, loyalty and respect for the members of the pack."

"So you don't do the pack thing?"

"Not in the sense of the word. While we are out at night, we travel in
packs, as in safety in numbers. While we may be in a predominantly gay
area, there are still haters that come through trying to cause trouble
and when they do, they are usually on the losing end of the battle."

"There is just so much going through mind my right now, I just am just
confused.  Not in a bad way. Just do I want to dip my toe in the doggy
pool, that kind of thing. I am really intrested. I'd like to learn more."

Grayson looked at me with a look on his face that begs to ask a question.

"Say what's  on your mind Grayson. You been supporting me all evening.  I
don't usually bite."

"I don't want you to get the wrong idea with what I was gonna ask you. I
like you and don't want to scare you or offend you."

"Well, I like you too. You are really the only person I have met since I
have been here, except for the people I work with and they are just
acquaintances. So shoot."

"Here goes. I know you want to learn about pup play. There are certain
parts I can explain better at my place. I don't want to freak you out
though. So, I wondered if you like to follow me back and I can show you
some gear and things."

Now it was Graysons turn to be nervous. I found it cute and endearing.
Especially coming from an self proclaimed Alpha Dog.

"Sure. Why not. We been with each other for a couple of hours. I'm not
getting any creepy vibes from ya. Let's go."

We walked towards his home which was going towards the motel I am living
in. While we were walking, the was a comfortable silence. I was going
through eveything I had heard and seen tonight. To say it was exciting
was an understatement.  I found it to be utterly arousing.

I could feel myself becoming aroused. I couldn't believe it. I was trying
to concentrate on others things as to make it not so obvious, if you
catch my meaning.

We continued walking in silence. Where I would have turned right to go to
my motel, we turned left and walked down what I would call a residential
street, except you couldn't drive a car down there.

Grayson noticed an odd look on my face and said, " This was an experiment
but the developer. When he purchased these properties, this was just an
ugly alley and that made these the backs of the buildings. That in itself
was normal. But when he started his revitalization project, he kind
flipped everything around. Where, people used to park back here, and what
would be considered the front of the buildings face the 2 corresponding
streets on either side, it left a lot to be desired as far as curb
appeal. Also, it was more dangerous for people that had small children
playing next to the street. There was enough room to create what you see.
Tree lined sidewalks, attractive street lighting, safe areas for the kids
to play and the ability to enjoy you home without having to deal with
traffic."

I must say, I was very impressed. What were once the fronts of the
building were now the back. Parking behind the buildings that were
attractive from the actual streets were nothing compared to what once was
a regular alley.

Like Grayson had explained, the trees, which I later found out to be
artificial, were so life like, someone passing by would never know the
difference except during the winter when all the trees still had their
leaves.

The street lighting was reminiscent of old victorian street lamps. There
was a slightly winding sidewalk meandering through real green grass. All
very neat a manicure. He said when the buildings were renovated, they
were converted to condos. So there was no upstairs/downstairs neighbors.
Neighbors were on the sides. It gave people a premium green space in a
city that was mainly concrete and steel.

I could see me living somewhere like this. But, at this point it wS even
close to an attainable goal.

Before I knew it, we were at Graysons. I was surprised that he lived
here. But, then again, I didn't really know him all that well.

"Come on in and make yourself comfortable. Would you like something to
drink? I have soda, juice, bottled water or maybe something a bit
stronger? I'm just gonna have a soda."

"Soda is fine. Thanks"

Grayson stepped to the kitchen to get the sodas.  I looked around his
living room. It seemed "normal". I chuckled to myself.

"What's funny?" Grayson asked while he handed me my drink.

"It's not what I expected, but then I didn't reLly know what to expect.
Thought since you said you spent so much time in pup play mode, that it
would look like a dog house in here." I said blushing

Grayson laughed. "I am a normal person, just with different intrests.
While I may spend a large part of my life as an Alpha, it's not 100% who
I am. There's more to me. Just as there is to you and I kinda hope we can
find that stuff out about each other."

I just looked at him and smiled. As I stood there looking at him,
something hit me. I had not really LOOKED at Grayson. I judged him to be
in his mid 30's. Platinum gray hair. Nice natural tan. Bright green eyes.
About 6ft tall. 200lbs. Firm build. Not a musclehead. Not fat.

He was the epitome of a sexy man. At least to me anyhow.

"What?  Got something hangin out my nose?" He said while rubbing his nose
likevthere was something hanging out.

"No, I just realized that I hadn't really looked at you physically. If
it's  not being to forward, you are an extremely attractive man. We've
been talking and walking, and I have enjoyed hanging with you so much, I
just have not paid attention."

"I must say that I am very flattered. To meet someone and connect on a
different level other than just the physical, it's rare. That shows the
kind of person you really are. I find that so attractive. Your innocence,
the bit of vulnerability you have shown tonight, the inquisitiveness into
my life, makes you very attractive to me. And I think you are extremely
attractive on top of it all, you are the complete package."

I could feel myself burning from blushing so much. I was not comfortable
with getting or accepting compliments like this. I just didn't happen to
me.

"Ok, enough of that for right now. Let me show you around."

We startedin the living room, then to what I could on describe as a
professional chefs kitchen. The he showed me the half bath. We made our
up the stairs to the second floor. There was 2 guest rooms with en-suite
bathrooms. There was an office and the next room just knocked my socks
off.

It was his pup play gear room. There were all kinds of neoprene pup hoods
and half hoods. There were all kinds of collars and leashes. Just about
anything you could ever want for pup play.

"Is there anything left for anyone else?" I said chuckling.

Grayson just smiled.

"If I like it, I buy it. Some has been left from others. Not exes, that
would just be uncomfortable.  But friends that had lost intrest,
leftovers from parties and I do like to have extras for budding pups if I
see fit to help them."

We looked around for a bit and he showed me somethings I hadn't seen
before and explained them. After a bit we made our way up another flight
of stairs. This was the top floor. Big enough to be an entire studio
apartment.  But it was all Graysons bedroom and en-suite bathroom.the
whole condo was amazing, but that bathroom. The whole thing except the
floors was stainless steel with just enough accents to soften it and not
make it feel completely industrial. The toilet was in a concealed area
that afforded that little extra privacy that was wanted or needed. The
shower was huge. There were at least 8 shower heads on the walls, and a
bed with a full body shower head above.

Grayson said that the bed was made of some kinda of that was fine for
water. You could lay down on the bed and control the temperature and
pressure  of the water. It went from high pressure for massage and such
to soft pressure to to just sooth you.

There was also a ginormous never ending bath tub. It recycled the water
through a filter and heater. It gave you unlimited hot water without
wasting water.

I was absolutely stunned. I had never seen anything like it. Sure as hell
not in my motel room.

"So, this is my house. You've seen it all."

"Well, not all." I replied with a cat that ate the canary look on my
face.

Grayson chuckled while shaking his head.

"Would you like to try on some pup gear. I know there's got to be
something you'd like in there."

Up to this point, everything had just excited and aroused me. But, I
realized that this would be the next logical step.

Although I was again nervous, I nodded my head in the affirmative.
Grayson grabbed my hand and led me back to the gear room.

"Let's find you head gear. Would you like to try a full hood or the half
mask, or would you like to try both?"

"I think I would like to try one of each. Sometimes I can get a bit
claustrophobic and I'm not sure how the full hood would do."

"No worries Marco. Some people can't wear a full hood. Whatever you
decide you are more comfortable with."

Grayson handed me first a full hood in black and blue. It was a bit of a
struggle getting it on seeing as how it was my first time. Grayson showed
me how he put his on and then helped me out mine on.

I felt a bit closed in. Not really all that comfortable. I felt like I
was locked in a box with just little peepholes to see out of.

I immediately took the hood off. Grayson had a bit of a shocked look on
his face.

"Sorry, I think that hood was just a bit more than I can handle."

"Not a problem. I was just startled at how fast you took it off." Grayson
took the hood from my hand and handed me a half mask. "Let's try this for
ya."

I put the half mask on with ease. Immediately I could tell, if I were to
pursue the pup play scene, the half mask would be for me.

I looked in the mirror. I had to admit I thought I kinda looked cute.

While I was looking at myself, Grayson walked up behind me a place a ball
cap with dog ears attached to it on my head.

Ok, now I really thought I looked cute.

"What do you think Marco? Think you can get into the pup scene? I see at
least part of you likes it." He said while looking at my crotch.

I hadn't even realized that I was completely aroused and showing
everything through the material of my pants.

I could feel myself blushing harder than I ever have before. I turned
away from Grayson completely embarrassed.

He turned me around so I was facing him.

"Do not be embarrassed or ashamed for your reaction to being in pup gear.
If you didn't get a lttle bit excited, I probably would have told that it
might not be for you. But this sign assures me, that you like it."

I stood there for a minute not saying anything. What was just a blank
face was turning into a smile.

"Ok then, let's see what else we have here for you."

Grayson walked around the room picking up different things. He approached
me and said, "Let's start with a collar. If anything starts to become to
overwhelming, let me know. You can wear or some. It's the individuals
choice as tho what and how much they wear."

He held out 2 collars. One was a black spiked leather collar, the other
was just a plain black mesh collar with a dark gray stripe running down
the middle. I chose the latter.

He helped me put it on. I was looking cuter by the minute. I didn't
really have a good self image, and from my point of view, this was an
improvement.

Next were the boxing glove looking things. He referred to them as of
course, paws. I put them on, once again feeling a bit restricted.

"I can't wear the paws. As cute as they are, they feel a little bit
restricted."

"Marco, you have no reason to apologize. I told you that it was up to the
individual and what they want and what they feel comfortable with."
Grayson said smiling.

Next was a tail. Again there were a few choices. One was a black rubber
tail on a belt that fit around your waist, the next was a furry black and
brown tail, also on a belt. The 3rd one was definitely different.  It was
black rubber like the first, but it was not attached to a belt. It had
like a bulb/know type thing on the other end.

I couldn't quite figure that one out until Grayson began explaining the
differences.  The 2 tails on the belt would be more for out it public
while the 3rd one was for more intimate situations.

The third tail still wasn't clicking.

Finally I had to ask "Grayson, I see the first 2 tail are attached to a
belt. But, how do you attach the 3rd one?"

"Remember that I told this one" holding up #3, "was for more intimate
situations, that because it is a butt plug. I goes in your rectum.
Usually worn alone or with a jockstrap. Can be worn under clothes, but so
not comfortable."

"I can see that it would be uncomfortable."

"Is there one you would like to try?" He asked.

I shyly pointed to the butt plug. Again blushing. If I keep blushing, I'm
gonna run out of blood.

"We can do that. If you'd like to, you can step in the bathroom to try
it. There is individual packets of lube in the linen closet behind the
door. If you don't like it, just leave in the sink. I have a special soap
for cleaning toys."

"I'm not sure what to do. I've never really messed with my butt. Would
you be willing  to help me?"

"I would very much like to help you!" He said very excitedly. His facial
expression turned to one of fear. "I didn't mean..."

I cut him off. "Grayson, I feel very comfortable around you. I don't know
about you, but I feel connected to you. So, I has hoping that your reply
was going to be what it was."

He stood there for a minute. I undid my pants, pushing my pants and
trunks to the floor. I turned my back to him and looked at him over my
shoulder. I saw him look longingly at me. I just nodded my head.

He walked to the bathroom and came back with a few packets of lube.

He got behind me and knelt down. When he touched me, I could feel him
shaking. I wondered to myself if all Alphas showed this much, what I
assumed was fear.

He started caressing my butt. It was just a butt. Not a bubble butt or a
saggy butt. It was just a normal butt. But he was touch it like it was
the most precious thing in the world.

Then he gently kissed the left cheek then the right. I looked at him
again over my shoulder. He was looking at me too. I just nodded my head.
He started kissing my cheeks again, getting ever closer to the crack.

I felt him spread my cheeks and then planted a kiss right on my hole. I
moaned, he moaned and then began licking and kissing my crack and hole as
tenderly and passionately as he possibly could.

I felt his tounge at my hole. His ministrations had me so relaxed, I felt
his tounge slip in. I was in heaven and based on the sounds Grayson was
making, I was hoping he was too.

This went on for a few more minutes until I felt him pierce my hole with
a finger. I groaned. It felt like nothing I had ever felt before.

A minute later, it felt like he had 2 fingers in me. But he wasn't
moving them. Before I knew it, he was standing in front of me. I could
still feel myself being invaded. He turned me sideways. The tail was in.
I liked it.

"Oh my God, that is so hot."

"There is also a different tail I have that you might like."

He walked away and returned just as quick. The tail he had was like the
furry belt tail, black and brown and fuzzy.

"I wanna try it." I said maybe a bit too anxiously.

"Bend over and let's take the other one out. We'll put this one in and
see what you think."

I bent over and again he started loving on my ass again.

I was loving it. He took the tail out and replaced it with the other
tail. All the while still loving on my ass.

He finally stands up again. He turns me around and I look in the mirror.
I didn't think my dick could get any harder, but it did.

Grayson pulled me closer and wrapped his arms around me. He was pressed
up tight against me. My cock pressed tightly between us.

His lips softly brushed mine. I felt him caressing me from my back down
over my but and over the tail.

I could tell that he was just as hard as I was. We kissed for what seemed
like forever but was only about 5 minutes.

I glanced at the clock on the nightstand. We had been together for well
over 12hrs. Good thing I didn't have to work. I had no idea if Grayson
had to or not.

"Um, Grayson, do you need to be at work or anything? I can't believe how
time has gotten away."

"No, I don't have to be at work. I don't work at all. I am the one that
developed this street. By the time all the units were sold, I eneded up
with more money than I could spend in several lifetimes."

"Ok. Didn't want to cause you to be late for something if you had any
prior engagements. I have only know you for less than a day, I don't want
to barge into your life "
"Quite the contray Marco. This has been the best time of my life. As far
as barging into my life, no, you haven't."

We just stood there staring at each other not saying a work. I know I was
feeling something. Something stronger than I had ever felt. The thought
popped into my head that I would have to leave eventually. I could feel
the tears welling up in my eyes.

"Whats wrong pup? All of the sudden you like you have lost your best
friend."

I went over and sat in the love seat that was in the corner. I rested my
face in my hands. Now, I was not only crying but no I was starting to
shake.

He walked over and sat next to me and put his arm around my shoulder.

"What's wrong Marco, talk to me. You kinda scaring me a bit."

"I am just overwhelmed with feelings. I thought about having to go back
to my "home" and leaving you and my heart feels like it's breaking. I
don't understand this. How can I feel this way about someone that I have
only met?"

"Listen to me Marco, while I don't believe it happens that often, I do
believe in love at first sight, kismet and destiny. I believe with all my
heart, that's whats going on."

"I'm just so lost at the moment. What do I do?"

"How about you just sit there for a minute. I'll be right back."

He got up and walked out of the room. I could hear him run up the stairs
and back down. He was in front of me in seconds. He must've taken the
stairs 2 or 3 at a time. He was out of breath.

He knelt in front of me and took my hand. He looked deep into my eyes and
spoke,

"Marco, I have expressed my feelings and you have expressed yours. I hope
I'm not miss reading the situation. But here goes, Marco, will you be my
Beta. To let me love you, to let me take care of you. To cherish our time
together however  long or short that time may be?"

I just sat there staring at him biting his lip with a pleading look on
his face.

"Grayson, I would he honored. I hope I can live up to your expectations
and not let you down. Yes, yes I will be your one and only Beta if you
will be my one and only Alpha."

He held his hand out and opened it. Inside I saw a bone shaped charm.
Engraved on the front were the words, "Alpha and Beta. Together forever."

I started bawling. This man that I've known for less than 24 hours have
thrown me for a loop. Asked almost begging for me to be with him, when it
should have been the other way around. I feel so unworthy.

"Marco, my pup, my Beta, my love. The only expectations I have are that
we are open and honest with each other. You could never let me down. We
will go through this together through thick and thin, for better or for
worse."

I threw my arms around his neck. He lifted me up and carried me to "OUR"
room.

"I'm not sure about you, but I am feeling a bit ripe. I need a shower.
Care to join me?" He held out his hand for me and led me to the shower.

From that day on, he was my loving Alpha and I was his adoring Beta. We
ened up with matching dog tags with our names on the others dog tag along
with the date we met. We lived the rest of our years in near total bliss.
