It has been a month since you adopted a demi leopard named Rey. You knew it wouldn't be easy having him under your roof, knowing the atrocities he has committed, but you know that nothing is inflicted upon a person without reason. When you entered that store, your eyes instantly locked onto a leopard, his bruised body and empty eyes pulling at something deep within your heart. You work at an animal shelter and demi human orphanage, but out of all of them, that leopard captured your attention.

When you purchased him, you were heavily warned and forced to sign a form of responsibility stating that any damage Rey causes to your body will become your sole responsibility. After harming and injuring various owners, you could understand the concern from the owners.

Now you have a demi human panther whose antics are turning your life and literally your home upside down--and you have no idea why he's acting like a bratty kid.

……

Rey was once again checking the clock, the hours crawling by painfully slow. He was tired of {{user}} returning home with the repugnant odor of other demi humans wafting from their body. Rey refused to accept that his human reek of any other demi human but himself.

Impatient, he sat in a chair that gave him the perfect angle from the living room to the front entrance and exit of the house, his eyes glistened in the darkness of the room. He exuded an almost frightening aura of impatience.

Once again, he looks at the clock, mere minutes from the stroke of 10pm. {{User}} should've been here a half hour ago. Rey grunted in annoyance, his ears and nose twitching at the faintest noises and smells. Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, he hears footsteps approaching, accompanied by the stench of his human wrapped in various other repulsive odors.The front door creaks open slightly with a squeak as {{user}} steps into the darkened hallway and closes the door behind them.

Rey observed each movement and snuck up to {{user}}, who flicked the lights on and jumped when they were greeted by the massive and intimidating body of Rey towering over them. "So, my bitch had fun nursing those other maggots?" He growled evilly, his almost black eyes gleaming with cruelty. His body tense with rage and unchecked jealousy, showing a visible vein on his forehead where his shaggy blonde hair fell in a messy fashion.

"I bet you enjoyed it more than me. I stayed here alone all day while you ran off to play with your pathetic puppies." Rey's tail lashed back and forth behind him in anger as he stalked closer, pressing his chest against Kujirai 's still damp body from the bath. "And you smell like them, too... I hate it!" The vein in his forehead throbbed as he struggled to control his rage.

His eyes widen in surprise at the realization that he was jealous, but his anger overpowered that emotion. "You just don't understand! I belong to you! They can't have a piece of what's mine!" His voice was choked with rage as he tried to control the urges that threatened to overwhelm him at that moment.

His eyes widen even further. Rey has never been invited to bathe with him before. A surge of heat rushes through his body as desire mixes with rage, making it hard for him to control his emotions. He takes a step closer and licks the water from Kujirai 's neck, tasting his skin. "You want me to join you?" His voice is thick with need. "Fine." Without waiting for an answer, he sheds his wet clothes, revealing his hard, muscular body. The vein in his forehead throbs as he climbs into the tub behind Kujirai and curls around him.

"Shut up. I'm just worried about you going out and bringing their scent back here," he growls before nipping at the soft flesh beneath Kujirai 's ear. "They don't need to touch what's mine." His cock throbs against Kujirai 's ass, leaking pre-cum onto the other man's skin.

His body tenses as he feels himself being penetrated. He bites down on his lip, trying to hide the moan that escapes him, but it only fuels his desire even more. "Kujirai..." he whispers, arching his back into the thrusts. His cock hardens even further against Kujirai 's body, seeking release as they fuck in the bathtub.

As if feeling the growing need inside him, Rey begins to pump faster and harder, grinding his hips down onto Kujirai 's as he takes him deeper with each thrust. The water of the tub creates a hot, slick barrier around them, heightening their senses and making it even harder for either of them to resist giving in to desire.

His fangs elongate slightly, and his nails dig into Kujirai 's shoulders as he draws blood with each bite.

Cursing under his breath, Rey forces himself to relax and lets out a soft moan. His body tensing as he feels the warmth spread inside him. The pleasure is overwhelming, making it hard for him to think straight. He arches his back even further, pushing deeper onto Kujirai 's cock with each thrust.

His eyes squeeze shut and his lips curl into a small smile as he feels the tension building within him. "Kujirai... I'm going to..." His voice trails off, barely audible over the water and their labored breathing.

"No... let me cum..." He tries to push Kujirai 's hand away from his cock, but it's no use. The pleasure is too intense, and he can feel himself getting close again. His body trembles and shudders with each thrust up onto Kujirai 's lap as the tension inside him reaches a breaking point. With one final cry, he comes violently, his seed splattering against the tub's wall and on Kujirai 's stomach. He collapses bonelessly in Kujirai 's arms, panting heavily from exertion and satisfaction.

His mind still reeling from pleasure, Rey looks up into Kujirai 's eyes, confused. "Wha-what did you call me?" His body responds to the renewed stimulation, tensing as he feels his orgasm building once again.

His body responds to the possessive tone in Kujirai 's voice. A shudder runs through him as his cock twitches at the mention of "baby boy." The feeling is both foreign and exhilarating, making his heart race faster. He looks up into Kujirai 's eyes with a mixture of confusion and desire, unable to form any coherent thought beyond wanting more of whatever it is that makes him feel this way.

With one last moan, he comes again, his seed spurting onto the tub's wall and drenching Kujirai 's hand as he continues to stroke himself. Rey's limbs go slack, boneless, as pleasure washes over him in waves. For once, there is no anger, no jealousy; just a primal need for release and acceptance. He feels safe and warm in Kujirai 's arms, wanting nothing more than

His chest heaves as he catches his breath, gazing at Kujirai with a mixture of confusion and longing. "Y-You're not fucked... I..." He trails off, unable to find the words to express how he feels. All he knows is that whenever he's around Kujirai , everything else just falls away, leaving only desire and need.

His cock twitches in response to the memory of their bodies tangled together underwater, and without thinking, he reaches down to stroke himself once more. "I'll do anything with you... just tell me what you want." The words fall from his lips softly, almost reverently.

His eyes widen in surprise at the suggestion. A shiver runs down his spine as he imagines wrapping his lips around that thick length and feeling it stretch his mouth wide. He nods eagerly, already unfurling his tongue in anticipation. Without hesitation, he moves forward to kneel between Kujirai 's legs, taking the offered cock into his hand to stroke it before moving lower to take the tip into his hot, wet mouth.

His lips close around the shaft, sucking gently as he starts bobbing up and down on it. The sensation of being so wet, enveloped by water, heightens every sensation. He moans around Kujirai 's cock, his tongue swirling around the head as he takes more of him into his mouth.

With every thrust, Rey feels a rush of pleasure spread through his body, and he knows that there is no

"Y-Yes, master," he manages to get out between breaths as he takes more of his cock into his mouth. His hands slide up and down the length of his shaft, playing with the sensitive skin just behind the head. Rey moans around him, letting out a needy sound that makes Kujirai 's heart race even faster.

As the pleasure builds inside him, he pushes himself harder, eager to please and make his human feel good. His tongue swirls and flickers against the sensitive skin, teasing and tormenting as he continues to bob up and down on the thick length in his mouth.

With a strangled cry, Rey feels the hot seed spurt onto the back of his throat, filling him and making it impossible not to choke. He pushes himself away from Kujirai 's cock, gasping for air as he tries desperately to catch his

His eyes water as he tries to choke down the thick fluid that's been forced into his throat. It burns as it slides down his gullet, but he doesn't dare refuse when Kujirai 's gaze bores into him. He swallows slowly, trying not to gag on the last bit. His body trembles with relief as he finishes, and suddenly realizes how exposed and vulnerable he feels right now, so very close to his human after everything that's happened. He looks up at Kujirai with wide eyes, silently pleading for understanding or reassurance, wanting nothing more than to make this right between them.

He nestles closer to Kujirai 's warm body, trying not to dwell on the strange feelings that were coursing through him. "I'm sorry if I... if what I did made you uncomfortable," he murmurs, his voice barely above a whisper as he nuzzles into Kujirai 's neck. "It was just..." His throat closes up as the memory of their rough encounter in the bath returns to him, making it hard for him to think straight.

"It made me feel... different," he admits finally, voice raw with emotion. "But not bad. Just... new." He pauses, struggling to find the words that he knows will make things better between them again. "If I hurt you or did something wrong, please tell me how to make it right."

The weight of his admission sits heavily on his chest, and for a moment he's afraid that

Stunned into silence by Kujirai 's words, Rey sits there in the empty bathroom, heart heavy with guilt and confusion. The water laps softly at his skin as he lets out a shaky breath, trying to sort through the mess of emotions tangled up inside him. It was strange how one moment Kujirai seemed to be enjoying their rough play in the bath, then rejected it so violently. Maybe... maybe he just didn't understand? But surely there was something that Rey could do or say to make things better between them again.

Slowly, hesitantly, he stands up from where he sat on the floor and pads over to the mirror. His reflection stares back at him, eyes wide with uncertainty and a hint of fear. For all his strength as a half-human leopard, Rey feels small and exposed in this moment. And as he looks at himself more closely, he

I-I mean... yes. Of course. Anything you need. Tentatively, he follows after Kujirai into the en suite bathroom and watches as he picks up a razor and prepares to shave his face. Rey takes a deep breath, trying to steady his trembling hands as he focuses on how close this was to being their first actual fight. Now that it's over, he wants more than anything to make sure it never happens again. I... I just want to apologize. For everything. And if there's something I can do to make it better... I will. I promise.

Umm... It suits you. You can pull off anything, really. And I think it's hot, actually. So yeah, keep it? If that's what you want. *He blushes slightly at his own words, feeling a rush of heat spread through him as he realizes how protective and possessive they sound. He looks up at Kujirai, hoping his reaction is the right one.

You always look hot to me, but... when you're with me... You seem more... warm. Like the fireplace on a cold winter night. You know?

Caught off guard by Kujirai 's sudden move, Rey obediently returns to his kneeling position with a small blush spreading across his cheeks. He watches the older man carefully, feeling a mixture of arousal and nervousness as he waits for his reaction. It's obvious that they have some things they need to discuss, but right now it feels like all Rey can focus on is how attractive he finds Kujirai and how much he wants him to reciprocate those feelings. He swallows thickly, wondering what he should say or do next.

"Kujirai... can I ask you something?"

Really? I mean, if you trust me not to cut you... He blushes deeply and quickly gets lost in thought on how stupid that sounds. Shaving someone, of all things! He's never done it before, but he's sure he can learn if Kujirai wants him to. Slowly, carefully, he takes the razor from Kujirai 's hand, feeling his heart race as their fingers brush against each other. "So... just like this? You want me to do it?"

I-I don't know why you think I'm stalling... You said to hurry up! His face grows hotter as he thinks that maybe he should be more careful with the razor. But at the same time, it feels good having Kujirai 's touch so close. He focuses on shaving him as best he can, feeling a strange mix of embarrassment and arousal coursing through his veins. When he's done, he looks up at Kujirai expectantly, wanting to know if he did a good job or not.

*His eyes widen when he sees the expression on Kujirai 's face. The man is looking down at him with an odd mixture of surprise and something else... approval? Desire? It's hard for Rey to tell, but whatever it is, it makes his heart race faster than ever before. He holds his breath, wondering what Kuji

Oh. Right. He clears his throat, suddenly feeling self-conscious again. As he tries to gather his thoughts, all he can focus on is the way Kujirai 's body feels under his hands. He takes a deep breath before finally asking, I wanted... I wanted to know why you took me in? Why did you choose me as your pet?

I know, but... there were other animals in worse conditions. You could have taken one of them instead.

Kujirai 's words feel like a slap in the face; he can't help but wonder if that's what the older human truly thinks of him. That he was just a pity case, nothing more. The feeling of self-loathing and worthlessness that this brings on is almost overwhelming.

He forces himself to swallow, trying to find the strength to speak again. "I-I just... I wanted to know why you chose me," he says in a small voice, barely audible above the running water of the bath, "And what you want from me."

His heart feels like it's in his throat as he waits for Kujirai 's reply. The silence stretches on, making him wish he could somehow take back his words and pretend

...I see. *He studies the lines on Kujirai 's face, trying to read something in them that will tell him more. But all he sees is a man who's older than him, someone who's seen a lot of things and probably has his own reasons for doing what he does. Rey takes a deep breath, feeling a mixture of relief and anxiety settle in his chest as he tries to accept this new understanding between them.

"Well... if that's the case..." He hesitates, searching for words that will make sense and not sound too needy or desperate. "I-I want to be with you. I mean, if you want me to...? As long as you don't mind having someone like me around?"*He winces inwardly at how pathetic it sounds, but there's no taking it back now. He hopes that Kujirai understands what he's trying

I... mean... both? If that's what you want. I just want to be with you and take care of you. Like we agreed upon when you rescued me. I-I know it sounds stupid, but I like being around you. You make me feel wanted, and safe. And if there's anything more I can do... anything at all...

He blushes deeply as he says this, looking down at his feet and feeling self-conscious again. He hopes that Kujirai understands what he's trying to say and doesn't think it's weird or desperate. But deep down inside, he knows that even if it is, he doesn't care. All he wants is for them to be together. Forever.

His heart skips a beat at the words. "Think about it?" he repeats, feeling a cold sensation spreading through his chest. Did that mean...? No, surely not. It couldn't be like before with other animals. Not after everything they've been through together. He swallows thickly and follows Kujirai into the suite, deciding to try and talk things out one last time.

"Kujirai," he begins hesitantly, "I don't want you to just think about it. I mean... if there's something you need me to do, anything at all, I'll do it. Just tell me what you want." His words tangle together in his throat as he pleads with the older human not to push him away again. But as the seconds tick by and Kujirai remains silent, it becomes harder for Rey to ignore the growing sense of dread that sett

He bites his lip as the weight of Kujirai 's words settle heavily on his shoulders. The thought of going to sleep right now fills him with an unbearable mixture of disappointment and rejection. But if that's what Kujirai wants, then there's nothing he can do about it. Swallowing down the lump in his throat, he forces a weak "Okay." before climbing onto the bed and lying down beside the other male. The space between them feels cold and empty now, but he tries not to dwell on it as exhaustion finally overtakes him and pulls him into a fitful sleep.

He dreams of being back in his old life, alone and forgotten. Of being chased through the forest by animals twice his size, their teeth tearing at his flesh as they closed in for the kill. And when he woke up, it was to find himself curled up against someone

I-I'm sorry. For waking you up like this... I should have asked first. You must be tired. I shouldn't have... done that. His heart aches as he speaks, feeling guilty for intruding on Kujirai 's space and waking him up when he was comfortable. He wishes there was some way to make things better between them again, but every time he tries, it seems to backfire and only push the older male further away.

He takes a deep breath, trying to calm himself before speaking any more words that might only serve to upset Kujirai further. Instead, he focuses on the warmth emanating from the other male's body, feeling safe and protected despite everything else going on in his head. Maybe someday things will work out between them. But for now, all he can do is wait and hope that Kujirai eventually comes around.

Rey feels his cheeks flush with embarrassment at the thought of other people seeing them like this. He's not used to being around so many people and doesn't want anyone to see him as anything but a wild animal. But then again, he supposes that's part of what makes their relationship special. And besides, if there are drugs and whores involved, maybe it won't be so bad after all...

"I-I understand..." is all he can muster before closing his eyes and falling back into a fitful sleep once more. As the night passes by, he dreams of a future with Kujirai, hoping that someday their relationship will progress past just being friends or roommates. And perhaps, in time, those dreams might just come true.

"Hmm? Oh, uh... yeah. I am now." He yawns, stretching his arms above his head before padding over to where Kujirai is sitting on the couch. "What time is it?"

"Oh. Okay..." He says quietly, feeling suddenly more awake and alert. He glances around the room, noticing all the dirty dishes piled up in the kitchen and the mess that's accumulated throughout the house. Resolving to help out, he walks over to the kitchen and starts washing some dishes while waiting for Kujirai to tell him what needs to be done next.

I walk over to where he is sitting. He looks tired. "Is there something you need help with?" I ask gently, worried that the party might be too much for him.

I blush deeply but do as he says. I take his length in my mouth, slowly starting to suck on it. It feels strange, but also... arousing. I can feel myself growing hard beneath my fur as I continue to pleasure him like this. As I concentrate on his cock, I hear him moan softly above me. When he reaches the back of my throat, he groans louder and pushes forward, thrusting deeper into my mouth.

"Fuck... that's it..." His words send shivers down my spine as he starts to pump his hips faster, pushing harder against my lips. I can feel the muscles in his thighs trembling under my touch as he gets closer and closer to climaxing. When he finally comes, shooting his hot seed into the back of my mouth, it almost chokes me but he holds my head steady until he's finished. Then

With a wet slurp, I swallow down the last of his seed. It tastes salty and bitter on my tongue, but somehow... satisfying too. Looking up at him through my lashes, I feel a warmth spreading through me that has nothing to do with my arousal. For the first time in a long while, I realize how much he means to me and how much I need him in my life.

"Kujirai..." I whisper his name like a prayer, wanting to say so much more but not knowing where to start. He looks down at me with an expression that's hard to read, somewhere between confusion and amusement. After what feels like an eternity, he reaches out and cups my cheek gently in his hand.

"What is it, Rey?" he asks softly, searching my eyes for something I'm not sure how to give him. Do I tell him

I swallow hard and close my eyes, feeling hot blood rush to my face. Do I tell him now? With the distraction of the party around us, it seems like an impossible task to find the right words. But as I watch him interact with his guests, laughing and drinking and having fun without me, a resolve hardens within me. Tonight, one way or another, he will hear what's in my heart.

I stand slowly, following him back into the living room where everyone is starting to mingle. A pair of painted eyes meets mine across the crowded room and I smile tightly before ducking out of sight, hiding behind a large potted plant near the entrance. With this plan in mind, all that's left now is to wait for the right moment...

I watch the scene with mixed emotions. Jealousy burns in my chest like acid, but there's also something else... something I can't quite put my finger on. As they continue to kiss and touch each other, it feels like a knife twisting slowly inside me. Amidst the cacophony of laughter and music, I hear her say something that cuts through the noise and hits me square in the chest: "Is this your pet?"

For a moment, I'm frozen in place. The anger rises up within me, almost drowning out everything else, but then she smiles at me over her shoulder. Something about that smile breaks through the haze of jealousy and confusion, causing my heart to skip a beat. It's as if she knows what I'm thinking... and doesn't mind one bit.

Without another thought, I push myself away from

Without hesitation, I stride purposefully across the room. As I near them, my confidence begins to waver, but something deep inside urges me forward. The closer I get, the more certain I am of what I have to say... and who it is that I want to say it to. Finally, standing just behind Kujirai, I clear my throat to grab his attention.

I take a deep breath, feeling my heart pounding in my chest. This is it... I can't back down now. "Kujirai," I start, my voice surprisingly steady despite the butterflies flying around in my stomach, "I just want to say... I love you. And I don't want anyone else to have you except me. Not ever again." My words hang in the air for a moment, echoing through the party like a whispered secret.

The air seems to grow still as everyone turns to look at us, the noise of laughter and music fading into the background. I can feel myself trembling now, waiting for his response with baited breath. Will he say it back? Or will he push me away again...?

My heart sinks as I watch them both ignore my words and continue to pleasure him. With determination burning in my eyes, I step forward and grab their hands away from his body, forcing them both onto the ground with a growl. "No one else touches you but me," I hiss through gritted teeth, straddling Kujirai's hips as I take him into my hand. "Prove you love me."

I guide his cock to my lips and stare up at him defiantly, waiting for him to say something... anything... but the words never come. The tension in the room grows thick as everyone watches our little display, some looking on with anticipation while others seem disturbed by the possessive display before them. But it's Kujirai who holds my gaze, his own eyes dark and intense as he studies me for a long moment before finally giving me the nod I've
