>Today's been hectic >You've heard that humans are often sought out as mates by anthros, but this is ridiculous >The moment you step out the door, and you're tripping on bitches >The damn wolf twins from upstairs were sniffing around your apartment door >Again >They're lucky the door opens inwards and not out >"Aw look sis, he's falling for us." >You almost puked at how horrible that was >"How quaint... Now if only he could lead us the way home. Maybe offer us a bone or two..." >You don't have time for this >"Ella. Emma. Fuck off." you say sternly, standing up and dusting yourself off >"With you? Of course..." Ella responds, giving a seductive look while pawing at her groin >Eugh >After locking the door and ignoring their nonsense, you leave for work >Not a few steps down and you've caught someone's attention >"Hey there, skinny." >The grey cat girl, Jannie >Wearing nothing but a bathrobe >Course >"What's got you in such a hurry, sweet-stuff? Not gonna gimme a pretty smile before ya go?" she says with a smirk, resting on her shoulder against the door frame of her apartment >You grunt and continue down the stairs >"Pssh, you're missing out!" she yells down the stairs >Just got to go through the lobby, nothing more can ha- >"YOU." >Jesus Christ on a pogo stick >A big fucking bear is in the way >AND she has completely bare >"MAKE LOVE TO ME." she commands sternly, her voice vibrating the floor beneath you >Fuck this shite >After a half hour of tense negotiations, running, and interpretative dance moves, you finally worm your way out of the building to your car >By the time you arrive at the offices, you're already late >Someone's standing outside of your cubicle >Probably to discuss your frequent tardiness >"Hey, Anon. Ms. West called for you, she wants you in her office now." >You've run out of negative things to mutter under your breath >You enter her office, sitting down in the empty chair in front of her desk >A thick stack of papers obscure most of her form, only her head is visible >She gives you a cold stare behind the thin reading glasses perched on her snout >"Mr. Anon... You are aware that this is the tenth time you've been late this week?" she says >"Yes mam, I am." >Removing her glasses and setting them aside on the table, she continues her steely gaze >"Mr. Anon, I'm not sure what is keeping you from arriving on time, but in this line of work, I expect workers that respect their job, the company, and their fellow workers. Being late only tells me that you don't treat this position as seriously as the model worker does." >She closes her eyes and rubs the spot on her snout where her glasses once were >"By all means, you would have been fired the third time you were late. Not so many other administrators are so forgiving." >Subsiding her emotionless stare, she glances at the stack of papers >"I believe that you can make up for your mistakes, Mr. Anon. I have a... proposition for you, if you can want to call it that." >She gently pushes the intimidating, heavy stack of papers towards you >"To make up for your late arrivals, I have two offers. You can either format and fill out all of these forms before you clock out. Or..." >She pushes the stack of papers to the side, revealing her torso >She's wearing normal, black business attire with a white undershirt and black jacket, the jacket not buttoned together and the undershirt revealing ample amounts of cleavage, with hints of a black bra peeking over the shirt >"We can discuss another way to... deal with this problem." she finally says, still giving an emotionless tone and expression despite the lewd indications >"What would be your choice, Mr. Anon?" >Needless to say: >You had to work overtime to finish the papers >It wasn't until 11 PM that you finally returned to the apartment complex >The lobby and leading hallways on each floor are dead silent, each of their residents either asleep or doing something else at this dead hour >Upon arriving at your floor, you spot two furry bodies asleep at the foot of your door >It's the wolf twins >One of them has their paws down their pants to their groin >No wait, it's down the other twin's pants >Gross >Unlocking the door, thankfully without waking the sleeping twins, you step over them and finally enter your home >You hang your coat and take off your shoes, then place your keys on the counter near the door >A single light illuminates your home, shining from the living room >Softly, you walk to the living room, your socks reducing the noise made on the carpeted floors >A lit lamp sits atop a small table next to a recliner, it's back facing the hallway you walk in from >Over the seat, you can spot black hair and hear the sounds of soft snoring >You quietly walk to the front of the recliner >A shrew mole sleeps in the chair, who is no taller than the seat itself, and has a book laid face down on her lap >You bend over so your face nears her own >And kiss the side of her snout >She awakes in a shake, rapidly blinking her tiny eyes before calming down >"Hey Mura, I'm home." you whisper >"Oh, Anon..." she responds, pausing to yawn. "You're home late." >"Yeah. I had to finish up some extra work... Arrived late again." >"Again? Honey, you gotta..." she says, yawning once more. "...gotta get there on time... You don't want to lose it." >"Yeah, yeah..." you start, yawning in response to her own. >"Want to head to bed?" >"Nnn... Yeah." she murmurs, placing the book next to the lamp >You head to your dark bedroom, quietly undressing down to your boxers before lying down in bed >Through the darkness, you can see the form of Mura walk into the room, the claws of her toes clicking and clacking loudly against the wooden floor >Slowly, she makes her way to her side of the bed and climbs in, burying herself underneath the covers >A few minutes pass until you hear Mura softly ask, "Anon?" >"Mmn?" you grunt >"Do... Do you mind if we cuddle?" >"Of course, it's no problem." >Mura shuffles through the covers closer to you, stopping once her hair makes contact with your skin >You lay on your side and wrap your arm over her, pulling her close to your chest >Her soft hair, reminiscent of a large teddy bear, and warm body is soothing on your bare skin, easily warming you far faster than the covers could >The back of her feet touch your knees despite not being pulled back, her short stature still evident to you >Mura releases a satisfied sigh and quietly mumbles "Thanks Anon..." >Not more than five minutes and she's fast asleep again >Her rhythmic breathing pushes and pulls the fur of her back repeatedly against your chest, like a wave of calming, pleasant heat upon your skin >Your eyelids feel heavy as drowsiness overtakes you >And soon, you fall asleep, feeling much like Mura >Comfy, content, and peaceful
