The LADS react to you getting a ""dog""
You couldn't just take Valko with you to work. Several questions would be raised. And he couldn't hang around your apartment in his human form with the maintenance man coming to fix the shower. You had to bargain.
Just eight hours in wolf form in exchange for endless pets tonight with a big, juicy steak.
Valko didn't like using his wolf form unless he was hunting the most elusive of prey. He was bored out of his mind, and you had only been gone fifteen minutes.
That was until the birds started chirping. His ears immediately perked up and saw finches and cardinals flocking upwards outside of the window. Jumping off the couch, his golden gaze was fixated at where they were going and got vocal about it.
Valko kept barking with delight until an ear twitched to hear the front door unlocked. The scent was...unfamiliar. A bunny? Valko dashed around the corner while bumping into the couch only to see a man on the phone who was staring right at him.
"You didn't tell me you got a dog,"
"It was a last minute thing, and it isn't even mine," You lie to Xavier. Valko hears this and slumps to the floor in distress. "Are you sure about that? Seems pretty sad now," Xavier bent down and scratched behind Valko's ear. Curse the bunny! His weakness!
The black wolf let out a whine and rolled onto his back. Xavier took notice and started scratching his belly. "Well, whoever he belongs to, and he's in your house...I guess I should watch him while you're gone." He hung up the phone to focus both hands on belly scratches.
Valko was as happy as could be with his tongue out, panting like crazy. He let out a 'aroof' to announce his pleasure that made Xavier giggle.
"Perhaps dogs aren't so bad..."
"Maybe bunnies aren't so bad either?" In an instant, Valko was back in his human form with his shit-eating grin staring plastered on his face, looking right into Xavier's translucent blue eyes.
"So you're telling me you picked up a stray, and you need me to look at it? I'm a cardiac surgeon for humans, not a veterinarian." Valko could hear a long sigh from outside your front door. "Fine, but it must be all of the macarons. And no promises that I don't cure his ailments."
Earlier that day, you and Valko had gone to the gym to do bench pressing. One press of biting off more than he could chew and you not being the best spotter resulted in the bar collapsing on his chest which resulted in a shoulder injury. It wasn't life-threatening, but it was definitely sore.
Sore and grumpy enough to pout around in his wolf form. You had planned to go get some ice and snacks, but an emergency mission had pulled you away from your convenience store run. There was only one true way to fix this - get a doctor in the house. Luckily, you knew one.
"Let's see..." The man knelt down next to Valko with furrowed brows. He turned away to send a text.
Snowman: And what exactly is wrong with him?
You couldn't tell Zayne the truth. It would open a can of worms.
Jasmine: He just hurt his leg while tripping over the curb. Despite his size, he's a big baby.
The man set his phone aside and started talking to Valko in a gentle voice. "Let me know where it hurts, alright?" He smelled like sugar and jasmine. His touch was cold, but not freezing him to the bone.
Upon touching the left shoulder of his front leg, he let out a yelp and flinched away. "Aha," Zayne gently smiled at his patient for such an easy diagnosis. "This was not a small trip. Were you pulling a sled, perhaps? You would only get this kind of injury from pushing so much exertion." He stood up and wandered into the kitchen to see if you had any ice packs in the fridge. His Evol would be too much for the poor thing.
When Zayne came back with one, he noticed the dog (wolf? it was too big to be a dog, that much was for certain) had moved as if it knew exactly what Zayne was going to do with his black tail sweeping on the floor. Canines were intelligent creatures, so it was no surprise.
The ice pack that touched Valko's fur and permeated to his muscles, making them feel like heaven. And after his icing was done, the sugary man gently massaged his strained shoulder.
The gentleness made Valko let out a happy bark, but the feeling was too much. Zayne's hand shot back when the leg of a dog turned into a bicep of a massive hulk of a man. He was surprised at what you had dragged in, let alone if you even knew of this. He didn't know what what to say as the man with wolf ears and a tail that was swaying stretched out his sore muscle.
"So, doc, same time next week?" Valko smirked at Zayne hoping he would take him up on that offer.
"So my protection isn't good enough for you anymore, kitten?"
Sylus has his arms crossed and is looking down in disdain at your +1 to the N109 Zone tonight.
"Come on, tell me. Where are you going?"
"You wouldn't believe me if I told you."
The N109 Zone was somewhat believable, but standing in front of the world's most wanted man as if he was nothing was. Sylus Qin - Boss Man of Onychinus. Ho-lee shit. There was no way Valko was staying behind tonight.
"It's only a temporary arrangement, Sylus. Just one night."
"If he isn't housebroken, then you have to clean up after him." You scoff at Sylus's comment as you disappear to go get changed for the auction. Valko tries to follow you, but is stopped by a large, black leg.
"I think she can change her clothes by herself, don't you think?" Valko growled at his obstacle and was tempted to bite into it. But somehow, it was as if Sylus had already anticipated that. He could smell the non-chalant attitude radiating from his opponent.
The pale-skinned fiend calculated it would be a bad move to use physical measures to control the beast, so he had to resort to...more subtle tactics. With ease, he passed Valko to go sit on a nearby couch and with his elbows resting on his knees, Sylus looked Valko dead in the eyes and said, "Come."
The black wolf tried to resist, but he had no other desire than to obey.
"Sit." Valko sat, frustrated at these methods. He was the alpha wolf, not some trained sidekick!
Sylus smirked at his work, then moved over to pick a scrap of meat leftover from a past meal to pass to his new henchman. Valko's ears perked up immediately, but boss man was still in control. He used his finger to keep the furball in line to properly get his reward.
"Good boy.” Sylus held out his hand while Valko snatched the treat from the boss man’s long, slender fingers. He laughed at the dog’s antics. “Perhaps you aren’t so bad, maybe even more reliable than Mephisto.” A frantic caw was heard across the room. And that was when Sylus got a bad idea. He patted his thigh, while looking at Valko, but didn’t say a word.
Was Sylus implying what Valko thought he was? There was no way. The offer was…tempting. Too tempting.
“Don’t worry, I won’t bite~”
Taking that as a guarantee, Valko jumped on the sofa and plopped his head onto Sylus’s leg where he suddenly began to receive soft pets and scratches from behind the ear. The gentleness had caused him to dose off.
“Sorry I took so long. I wanted this one pair of earrings and turns out Mephisto got a hold of them-“
You look in shock at Valko, now in human form, was asleep in Sylus’s lap, ears flicking and tail swaying.
“Hm? And?” Sylus had also nodded off while waiting and opened one eye upon hearing your voice. He had immediately picked up that something was amiss because of the cutoff in your thought.
“And aren’t you uncomfortable? How in the world did you get up there?”
“I wasn’t talking to you!” You cross your arms and Sylus notices your eyes avert to his lap to finally see not the dog, but a human hybrid asleep.
Valko let out a yawn, stretched, and opened his eyes. “Well? What do you have to say for yourself?” You ask him again.
“I say that he’s got a comfortable leg, that’s for sure.” The response made Sylus smirk and bark out that signature laugh.
“Aw, that must mean he likes me more than you, sweetie. Does that mean I get to keep him? He would look good with a collar on his neck.”
“Go get it! Go get the stick!”
Caleb had come over to visit from Skyhaven since the spring. You were looking forward to this reunion for so long. But Caleb had developed another hyperfixation that wasn’t you - your new pet. Well, you new friend, Valko.
You suggested it would best for him to stay in wolf form while the Colonel was around. What was an informal meeting turned into a distraction.
“Caleb, lunch is almost ready!”
“Yeah! Five more minutes! He just won’t stop!”
You audibly grumble over his failed ability to listen. And that Valko was taking your precious time away from Caleb.
Meanwhile, the black wolf was having the time of his life. This man named Caleb smelled like apples and sunshine, and was a ball of energy. As soon as he was spotted, they were running around outside the backyard playing fetch, which is something you never did with Valko as you found it to be demeaning. No matter how many times Valko told you that he was okay breaking it loose now and again you always said no. That it was too embarrassing, to immature, the same old excuses. Whoever Caleb was, he better come more often.
Eventually, Valko saw you come outside to drag the man in. He whined and ran closer to attempt to win you over with his puppy eyes.
“Valko, no! We have to eat, and you do too!”
“Valko, huh? Nice name…” Caleb bent down to give him some chin scratches resulting in a vigorous tail wag. The response made you huff and pout again with Caleb taking notice.
“Pipsqueak…are you jealous~?” He stood up, crossed his arms, and smirked down at you.
“Ya know, I can smell when you lie.” Valko chimed in copying Caleb’s face. Caleb’s head snapped back when he heard the voice. He blinked a few times to ground himself before smirking at the wolf man.
“What else can you smell?”
“Everything. No scent can hide from me.”
“Well, perhaps you can smell that I’m feeling a bit mischievous~”
Valko sniffed the air and his tail swayed behind him.
“Oh, I’m up for that kind of trouble~”
