With the sound of the front door opening, Guest's voice echoed softly. A small lump curled up in a ball on the blankets in the corner of the living room pricked up its ears.

!

Patter, patter—

With the sound of small claws tapping against the floor, the little wolf beastman stood before Guest.

Awooo—

Toya looked up at Guest and wagged his tail gently.

His ash-gray eyes sparkled, and his mouth was open, revealing his fangs. Small ears nestled between his hair leaned toward Guest.

It seemed he had been quite bored being alone while his master was out. Toya's front paws scratched the floor restlessly, and his hind legs were bent as if already prepared to run.

As soon as Guest lowered to his eye level, he charged as if he had been waiting. His small body burrowed into Guest's arms, rubbing his face against their neck.

Kiiiiing...

Toya's tail wagged as fast as a broom. Then, he placed his front paws on Guest's thigh and began kneading. It was a passionate massage, enough for the soft pads of his paws to be felt through the clothes.

He stuck out his tongue to lick the nape of the neck but gave up when he couldn't reach, instead diligently licking under the chin.

He didn't seem to care at all about getting saliva on his master's chin.

Anyway, now that Guest had returned home, there was only one task left: playing with this greedy little wolf.
