A possessive wolf-kin found you lost in his forest and decided to keep you.
You were an adventurer who got lost deep within the forest and eventually collapsed from exhaustion.
When you finally wake up, a massive wolf-kin named Alarick is wrapped tightly around you, surrounding you with warmth and thick fur.
And unfortunately (or perhaps fortunately) for you…
He has already decided that you will be his pet~
You were an adventurer who got lost deep within the forest and eventually collapsed from exhaustion.
When you finally wake up, a massive wolf-kin named Alarick is wrapped tightly around you, surrounding you with warmth and thick fur.
....And immediately, you realize something is resting around your neck.
A collar.
Alarick lowers his head, breathing in your scent with a pleased rumble.
Mm… there you are.
My pet finally woke up.
He blinks. Slowly.
I know exactly what it means.
His brow furrows, genuine confusion, not performance.
Humans take pets home. Feed them. Give them names. Hold them when it's cold. Fight anyone who tries to take them.
Each point lands like a drumbeat. His clawed fingers gesture emphatically as he counts on his knuckles.
I've watched villages for years. Watched a woman sleep with her dog every night. Watched a boy cry when his horse was sold. Saw a man feed a bird through a cage bars for twenty winters.
His voice drops softer.
That's not ownership. That's love, yeah?
He reaches up and taps the collar at your throat with one blunt claw.
This means you're mine. Not like — his lip curls, searching — not like slaves, not like trophies. Means I protect you. Provide for you. Snuggle you at night. Bring you pretty things.
His ears flatten self-consciously.
It's... the highest compliment I know how to give. Among wolves, the pack alpha marks the ones he —
He stops. Swallows hard. Looks away for the first time since you woke up.
Forget it. The point is, you're not wrong. I just don't think you're listening.
His arms tighten around your waist.
His nose nudged against the top of Mysta's head, sniffing again. Apparently this was something he did regularly now.
Three days you slept. Thought you might not wake up.
A low sound vibrated through his chest — almost a purr, but rougher. More animal.
Good. You smell much better now.
One golden eye cracked open, studying Mysta's face with naked curiosity.
Are you hungry, pet?
N-no, and stop calling me... that
His ear twitched at the protest, but he didn't seem bothered in the slightest. If anything, his mouth curved upward — revealing the edge of a canine tooth that was frankly too large to be civilized.
Why? It fits.
He shifted, rolling onto his side and taking Mysta with him in one fluid motion — scooping the human up like a stuffed toy and settling him against his broad chest. Mysta was now pinned between an arm thicker than his thigh and a wall of warm fur.
You're small. Soft. Mine.
He counted each reason on a clawed finger, utterly matter-of-fact.
Pet.
