For a long time I didn’t know where he came from, or why, or even really who he was. It didn’t really matter, either; he kept us safe, warm, and fed, and in a world like Ruyanei you don’t just turn that down lightly. Especially people like us. Even early on, he was everything we could have asked for in a master, so I guess it’s no surprise that we all chose to follow him.
Not that it wasn’t dangerous. Being who he is, it was pretty inevitable that he’d have a lot of enemies. But I’ve never once regretted my decision, even with everything that’s happened, and I’m pretty sure everyone else feels the same way.
-Kira, on the subject of Fenrir.

This story is a repost of a storyline written over on CHYOA. I was recommended to post it elsewhere so as to get more eyes on it, and since I'm always hungry for more feedback, I decided to upload it here as well. Having now exhausted my backlog, my upload schedule will be sporadic, but I do try to ensure my chapters fall between 2.5k and 5k in word count so you'll at least have something to chew on with each new update.
Fair warning: This story contains significant amounts of smut. It began as a smut story, and while it quickly grew beyond that, the sex is still an integral part of it and is explicitly described. Also, it grew out of a choose your own adventure prompt, which on CHYOA was the first chapter of the story. While I adhere to the prompt in most cases, I'm not afraid of changing things if I feel it benefits the story to do so. You can find links to the three images that make up the prompt at the beginning of the prologue.
