More cases came, with an increase in hybrid incidents specifically. There was little that could be done to stop the increase as unlike last time Pitch couldn't simply remove the source of the signal. As for the hybrids despite multiple cases over several months nothing was found to trace them back to or prove that labs were making them and whenever they could prove it all that accomplished was a replacement of leadership at that lab as they could never prove someone else was behind it.

  “I was acting alone.” Was what every lab tech caught creating and letting hybrids loose would say. Even if Pitch detected a lie they had zero evidence. Each person caught even came up with different reasons they were creating the hybrids. From it starting as a way to study them better to one guy outright saying he was trying to make biological weapons using hybrid Cryptids that could take orders. Time moved on and so did the team. Despite the best efforts of Ishwada, Anderson, Hammer, Kathryn, and Pitch they could never prove wrongdoing on the part of either Director Hawkes or Thomas Marrow.

  Months went by and it got closer to the election year. The group had little choice but to continue with life as normal. So invitations were sent out to family and friends. Finally July came, and everything was in place. On paper it was a wedding between James Holden and Kathryn Smith and was taking place on July twenty fourth. With little to do then work case by case till then everything was prepared as if the two were just normal people with normal jobs. They put in for and got approved for time off for the wedding and honeymoon. With everything set up each day seemed to crawl until the allotted day finally arrived.

  The couple followed a number of traditions, despite the abnormalities around their relationship. This included dress rehearsals and Pitch not actually seeing the dress until the actual wedding day. The pair chose to get married in a local church, specifically the one baby James was baptized in. Saint John the Baptist's Lutheran Church. The wedding would be followed by a reception party where everyone would dance, eat, and drink together. A normal wedding in almost every sense of the word. Almost everyone on Pitch's side of the wedding were from either Black Eagle or NexGen. Cuda stood in the spot of his best man as he stood and waited for Kathryn.

  Pitch was in a dark purple tuxedo with flower patterns on it, decorated with violets on the wrists and one on the right side chest pocket. The tux was tailored for him and made professionally for this day and not something Pitch simply manifested as part of his mask. The piano started playing indicating that the bride, Kathryn, would soon be walked down the aisle by her dad Jacobi. Pitch shifted a bit, growing a bit nervous in anticipation.

  Jacobi walked out in his plain tuxedo with his daughter at his side locking arms with him. Her long white decorated with lacy flower patterns resembling water lilies with the flowers being worn on her head as a wreath and her wrists as smaller wreaths. Her veil covered her face and a long translucent white cloth hung off the back of the flower wreath on her head and dragged long on the floor. A couple kids sprinkled flower petals on the walkway as the bride walked slowly down the aisle to the pace of the music. Pitch, despite not having the biological necessity, swallowed hard on instinct upon seeing how beautiful his bride was in her dress.

  She slowly walked up to Pitch and her dad let go of her arm leaving the couple standing face to face. The priest started his speech, following the traditional practice. “Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to bear witness to the union between these two souls.” The wedding proceeded normally with the priest eventually looking out to the crowd. “If anyone has a reason these two should not be married, speak now or forever hold your peace.” There was a long silence as the priest looked around the room. He then cleared his throat. “I said if there is anyone that has any objections they should speak now.”

  The room remained silent and Pitch felt a sensation like his skin crawling. He looked at the priest and he could suddenly feel an intense combination of frustration and anger that quickly turned into murderous intent. The priest folded the Bible before reaching into his robe and pulling out what looked like a larger end pistol like a Desert Eagle or a Glock but the area the magazine went in had a purple glow to it. “Fine, I'll do it. I'll object to a demon getting married in the house of God!” Several people scream and duck as Pitch moved to put Kathryn behind him standing in front of the priest. “Go ahead, fire that oversized Ritter Pistol. The worst it'll give me is a nice sunburn.”

  Pitch put his hand over the muzzle as the gun went off before wrenching it out of the priest's hand and knocking him out. He then dropped the gun and started seething in pain as he held out his hand and its heavily burned skin. “Ffffuck. Someone please get me some aloe vera and help me bandage this. Also remove this madman from my wedding. I thought I screened properly but I somehow still managed to get some Black Scripture psycho. Seriously, you'd think the old they were acting on their own schtick would wear thin after a while.”

  He then waved at the crowd. “Sorry about that everyone, everything is okay now. This man was just part of a splinter group of a religious organization that has issues with the private military company I work with. He's clearly delusional but since the threat is over the wedding will continue as soon as I'm patched up. If there is anyone here who's certified to officiate a wedding that would be great.” Jackson Daniels, the archaeologist who had worked with Arnold Hammer, stood up. “It's a long story but I'll take it from here.”

  Daniels walked up and picked up the Bible. “Alright, now if there is anyone else that objects that isn't whacko feel free to voice your issue.” Daniels waited as Pitch had his hand wrapped by Kathryn's mom, Fia. He then continued after Fia was done. “No one? Good. I now pronounce you monster and wife. You may now kiss the bride.” Pitch took off Kathryn's veil and planted a nice big kiss on her while leaning her back to the cheers of everyone.

  The reception party itself went off without a hitch. Pitch asked Ishwada to stand in the place of father of the groom to dance with Kathryn while he danced with Fia. Ishwada bowed deeply to Pitch “It would be my honor to act as a stand-in for Jack.” he said before going over to dance. When the bouquet was tossed the pixie woman from Black Eagle was the one to catch it, cheering loudly in excitement. “Fuck yeah! Finally!” She did a little joyful jump as other Black Eagle soldiers in formal wear chuckled. Then came the tossing of the wedding garter. Cuda, who had stood as Pitch's best man, caught the thing by complete accident as he simply stood in one place and had it practically land on him.

  Cuda looked at it with a blank expression before realizing the traditional implications of having caught it. He chuckled nervously. “Well shit. If this isn't a sign from God I don't know what is.” The dancing continued well into the night, with the party ending with Pitch bridal carrying and running for the door as rice and petals were tossed. The two hopped into Pitch’s jeep that had “Just Married” painted on the back and cans tied to the bumper. The pair sped off as people waved and cheered, the split second of chaos caused by the priest already forgotten despite the fact the man was arrested for attacking Pitch during his wedding. The two rushed off to enjoy their week together on their honeymoon.

  “You know, I expected that to go way south after the priest went for his gun. I expected a small army of Black Scripture whackos to pop out of the woodwork like mall ninjas with different Ritter weapons from pistols to rifles to cannons. I mean if they actually wanted me dead you'd think they'd try harder.” Pitch commented as he drove. Kathryn clicked her tongue. “Maybe killing you wasn't the goal. He attacked you, in public, in front of a bunch of people, with a strange tech weapon they've never seen before. A gun I'm fairly sure we left on the floor by the way. People are going to be asking questions about where it came from and what it was intended to do since it obviously wasn't designed to do much against humans.”

  Unauthorized tale usage: if you spot this story on Amazon, report the violation.

  Pitch let out a grumbling hum. “Step one, increase the number of cases making cover ups more difficult. Step two, put anti Cryptid weapons out in a public space with Black Eagle soldiers attending. People asking questions may end up going down a rabbit hole, not a sure thing but with the increase of strange things people will talk. Demanding answers. I highly doubt Hawkes or the current president would want to admit to a two hundred plus year secret. Hawkes may not like any Cryptids but he benefits from the secret and if he wanted to make it public could easily simply leak his files somewhere. Many would doubt the info in that case though.”

  Kathryn nodded. “But if tensions build enough and people demand answers enough, Marrow who is running for President could promise answers as part of his campaign. I'm not sure why he'd want to make Cryptid public either since he's a Doppelganger though. He's literally making a profit on the secret. Though I guess he won't be once he's president because his son will be running his company. We're still missing something that makes it all fit together. But we can think about that later. For now let's just get to our love nest and enjoy our week together. After all, you promised that after you were done I'd need a wheelchair to leave the house.”

  Kathryn grabbed Pitch's hand as he made his way to their destination. Pitch had a surprise waiting for them at the house. Pitch bridal carried Kathryn into their house and took her to the bedroom as she giggled with Pitch kissing on her face and neck. “I arranged for Kasa to stay with Anderson for the week so we've got the house to ourselves. But that's not the only surprise I have waiting for you.” He opened the door and took her into the bedroom where the bed had been replaced.

  Kathryn let out a soft gasp as she looked at the new bed. Built like a coffin with padded sides so Pitch could sleep in it with her in his true form. Smaller than their old bed so that when they sleep with him in his true form Kathryn would be immersed inside his essence but still large enough for them both when he's in his human form. “Pitch… I can't believe it. It's perfect. Now we can still share a bed when you want to rest in your real body.” Her face turned red. “And I'll be sleeping while surrounded by you and inside your body in an intimate hug.”

  Pitch carried her to the bed and placed her in. Kathryn then removed the dress skirt revealing lingerie underwear panties underneath. She wiggled in the bed and reached out her arms. “I'm ready to receive you, my husband.” Pitch removed his tie, belt, and shoes. “Keeping the heels on~? You've become such a naughty little thing~” Kathryn blushed and giggled. “Only for you my love~” Pitch slowly removed the slacks and jacket leaving only the button-up dress shirt and underwear before climbing into the bed. Moving above Kathryn, Pitch started kissing on her face and neck before French kissing her deeply.

  Kathryn's heart rate and breathing quickened in anticipation. “Pitch, don't make me wait too long now~ I want you to… no, I need you to take me. Make me yours fully again and again until I can't take anymore.” Pitch moved a hand to gripe her breast. “So impatient~ At least let me properly prepare you~” Kathryn moaned softly. “I'm already drenched just thinking about receiving you, Pitch. Please, I…” she paused and looked away for a moment before locking eyes with him. “I beg of you.” Pitch chuckled as he moved a hand to her panties and slid them to the side. “You’re right, you are already soaked.” He fingered at her womanhood lightly. “Okay, I won't make you wait any longer.”

  Pitch pulled his hard member out of his underwear, looking swollen and twitching. He slid the throbbing monster into Kathryn with relative ease with a gasp as she let out a moan. “A-are you bigger than normal?” Pitch chuckled. “N-no, you're grabbing me tighter than normal. You really are far more excited than normal. Does it really turn you on that much to be taken in your bridal dress?” Kathryn's face turned even redder. “It's not just that, it's the pose I know you're going to take while in this form. You're… you're going to mating press me against the top of this new bed.”

  Pitch used his hands to fondle Kathryn's breasts as he slowly thrust into her and kissed her passionately. “Is there something you're trying to tell me?~” Kathryn let out a series of soft moans as Pitch started moving and trusting into her wet and tight womanhood. “I- I want you to fill me up inside. I want to keep doing it every day this week until we are sure it keeps. I want you to impregnate me, make me into a mother~” Pitch's member twitches and swells at the confession causing Kathryn to let out a moan, Pitch can't help himself but increase the force and pace of his thrusts. “Is that so?~ Okay then my wife, I'll try my best to promote you to mother. I won't let a single drop go to waste as I put every last bit as deep into your womb as possible~”

  Kathryn wrapped her legs around Pitch to lick him in as his thrusting started becoming intense, going hard and deep, knocking on the entrance of her womb. “Yes~” she moaned. “God yes~” She then wrapped her arms around him in a hug and sealed him in more as they kissed passionately with tongue and thrust into one another trying to bring each other into an intense and simultaneous orgasm. Pitch groaned as his member started twitching. “You're so tight, and somehow getting even tighter~ You're grabbing me like a vice~ I'm about to cum~” Kathryn moaned loudly. “Me too, don't hold back~ You already told me your intentions, now follow through. Cum inside, get me pregnant~”

  Pitch continued to thrust with intensity while growing and kissing, the rhythmic slapping of flesh on flesh filling the room as Pitch repeated “Get pregnant.” Over and over again like a ritual until the both of them reached climax. Kathryn's body spasmed hard underneath his as the building climax finally released, christening the new bed. Finally Pitch slowed to a stop, only slowly grinding into Kathryn as she loosened her grip on him. Both started chuckling as Kathryn worked to slow her breathing and heartbeat. “You and I” she huffed “both know that” she panted “one round won't be enough for either of us.”

  Pitch chuckled as he pulled away and removed the last of his clothes before shifting to his true form and putting his body into the bed like a liquid, enveloping Kathryn's body in his. “Yeah, I know. You can be quite insatiable when you're in the mood.” Kathryn rolled to her hands and knees and started wiggling a bit. “It's only for you, my husband~” She said in a moaning voice. She then let out a gasp as a shadowy tendril formed and slid deep into her womanhood. Pitch chuckled. “Then I'll continue until you are satisfied~”

  Kathryn started lightly shaking her hips causing the dark shadow-like mass to shift around her as Pitch matched her rhythm in his thrusting causing her to moan out softly. “Yes, please~ Don't stop~” Her wiggling intensified with Pitch matching her pace with his trusting as she wiggled inside his essence. Pitch started letting out vibrating hums as he thrusted his now vibrating member deep into Kathryn's womanhood. Her moaning intensified as the vibrating tendril rhythmically knocked against the entrance of her womb.

  Kathryn's rhythmic moaning turned into words as she once again quickened her pace and started tightening up around Pitch again. “Cum on. Get me pregnant. Get me pregnant~” She moaned out as they once again built up to climax. Pitch couldn't help but feel turned on by the desperate request. “Fill me with your seed, bless me with your child~” Kathryn moaned out as her grip continued to tighten. She let out one final moan as her body started to spasm as Pitch once again filled her wet home with his thick dark blue love liquid which mixed with Kathryn's own love fluids.

  She panted and slowed down to a stop. “T- that's two. I think we can get one more out before the end of the night~” Pitch chuckled. “If you insist on it, I'll go once more for you. It's all for you, my wife.” Kathryn let out a soft moan as she lightly touched her sensitive clit. “Yeah~ Your wife~ I really do love the sound of that, my husband. Go on then, get creative. Show me what you've got.” Pitch pulled out and shifted creating his mask and lifting Kathryn up facing him. His arms had large gaps in them as bits of his true form leaked out of the mask. The particles formed a second humanoid shadow shape behind Kathryn.

  Pitch gave his new wife a wicked smile as he stood up while holding her by the rump and slid his engorged member into her. Kathryn let out a moan and kissed Pitch on the neck as the shadow Pitch grabbed her from behind. “My love, are you going to do what I think you are?” Pitch chuckled as a second, shadowy member started to force its way into her tight and wet home. Kathryn let out a loud moan as a second member slid deeply into her womanhood. “I don't know if I can handle that.” She panted out. “But I did say not to put a single drop anywhere else tonight~”

  The two continued their night of uncoiled passion with Kathryn experiencing the pleasure of having two versions of her husband thrusting into the same hole at the same time. She held Pitch tightly and kissed him as she let him do his thing. Once again he would thrust into her till they were both near climax and he would announce his incoming climax. Once again Kathryn would beg for it to be put inside her, only this time she was too enraptured by pleasure to even speak. Her body language was enough for Pitch. Her tightening around him and starting to spasm was his que let out all his fluids deep inside her wet and eager hole for the third time that night.

  Finally after letting her third set of spasms calm down, he sank into the bed in his true form and cuddled her with his whole body. Her body still lightly spasms as Pitch carefully placed a bandage over the hole. “I'm making sure not a single bit slides back out~” He said as he placed her panties over the bandage. Kathryn continued panting wordlessly, still lost to the pleasure for a moment. He moaned out a soft “love you” before dozing off while surrounded and filled with the love of her new husband. Kathryn and Pitch couldn't be happier at this moment. It's just a shame that all good things must end. Nothing lasts forever.
