Chapter Nine | Scent

~George's P.O.V~

(All Half-Human)

I glared up from the TV as Dream comes back from his errands. "George." Dream groaned. I rolled my eyes, getting up from the cozy couch. "Dream," I looked at the alpha and he looked back at Sapnap. "Nick, can you go please." Dream asked, but the tone he used made it sound like a order. Sapnap let out a deep sigh. Sapnap looked at me then back at Dream. "Sapnap!" Dream snapped, growling at the weak alpha. Sapnap ducked his head, hurriedly taking his leave.

"Dream?" He looked exhausted, it was different for him. "George..." Dream looked at George. "Dream? Is... Everything okay?" He looked deep into my eyes, "George, come here." I looked at the alpha hesitantly, "Why?" "George!" He yelled. "Dream, calm down." I begged, frightened.

Dream was always scary.

"Come here! Please..." Instead of making me come to him, it made me back up, hesitantly. He let out a deep growl, sprinting to me and grabbing ahold of me. "Dream!" I yelped. He pinned me harshly against the wall. "When I tell you to come here, you listen to me!"

Why is he always like this?

He sniffed the air, growling. "Why don't you smell right? Why don't you smell like me!" Dream sniffed again. I shivered, "Dream... I-I took a shower." "Why?" I shook, "Dream, I smelt bad. Am I not allowed to-" I yelped as he bit into my scent gland.

"Dream!" I screeched, starting to shake. I pushed him back, getting him off of me. He growled, narrowing his eyes, "Change!" As if on command, I shifted. Cowering away from the alpha who had also switched.

(All Wolves)

"Come here." He growled. Fear changed any plans I once had. I let my ears fall to the sides showing my submission. I walked over to the alpha, obeying. He grabbed me by the scruff, holding me in his jaws. He placed me on the bed, curling around me.

He was so warm.

He put his paws over mine, restricting my movements. "Stay."
He nuzzled at my scent gland. I closed my eyes, ignoring the alpha as best as possible.

So much for getting rid of his scent.

I was slightly startled when Dream started grooming me. "Dream?" He hushed me, continuing. He nuzzled my scent gland again, licking at it. He had to be buffing his scent again because it was unavoidable. His sweet honey scent filled the room.

He continued to rub his head against my scent gland, making sure that it smelt strictly like him. "Dream..." I sighed, I couldn't deny that I was definitely enjoying this. He hummed, licking behind my ear. "Why are you doing this?" "Just let me." He answered, his voice hitting low. Tired myself, I gave in, laying my head down on a pilow.
I couldn't say this was all that bad. I just didn't understand why he was doing this. Why was he being nice?

When he was done, he laid his head on top of mine, closing his eyes tightly. By the smell of him, Dream was sleeping peacefully. I gave a slight smile, I was content. I closed my eyes, engulfed in the warmth of the alpha.

-

"George?" I opened my eyes, whining. "Dream?" He wasn't laying near me. I felt the bed dip slightly behind me. I let out a content sigh as I felt the alpha's warmth around me.

-

"Oh, George..." I opened my eyes slightly, grumbling. "George." He hummed out again, exhausting the 'o' in my name.I let out a huff. "George, come on, get up." He purred in my ear.

I felt myself get lifted from the bed and away from the addicting warmth. "Dream..." I whined. He gently placed me down in a chair. "Eat." I looked at him, then at the food in front of me, then back at him. "I'll eat later, take me back to bed." I complained. He let out a sigh, "It's time to wake up, George." I cringed, before lazily getting up, going back to the comfort of the bed. I didn't know exactly what I was doing but I just went with it.

Dream watched from the door as I gathered all his hoodies together. He seemed interested watching me, and I was honestly too busy to care. I ruffled the blankets together on the bed.
"Dream? Food?" looked at the alpha, sleepily, almost in a haze. He chuckled, leaving the room.

When he came back, I was nice and comfortable surrounded by his over-sized hoodies and cozy blankets. "George! Food." he hummed, walking over with breakfast foods.
I happily grabbed the food, chomping away.
He chuckled, shuffling comfortably next to me. I was thankful he was calm.I let a deep sigh, finally satisfied.

-

"George, food." I grumbled, tucking myself back inside the beds fortress I had made. "Oh, George." He purred. I finally gave in, stealing the food that he had brought me.

-

"Gogy." I open one of my eyes, sleepily.
"You got to get up." I rolled my eyes, he grabbed me by the scruff. I was really too tired to care. He plopped me in front of the restroom, I rolled my eyes, going inside. As soon as I came out, I was hoisted back up and taken back to the room.

I was placed back on the bed and instantly found my spot, curling up inside my den.
I whined for the alpha and he knew.
He curled his body around mine.
I didn't know what was up with me, I could tell I was acting off.

Did Dream know something I didn't?

Was the alpha hiding something from me?

What am I saying? I'm too tired to care.

-

"Food?" I grabbed the food without looking at the alpha. He chuckled, "Sleepy George." I hummed in response. "Do you need anything?" I looked over to the alpha. "Do you have any more hoodies?" He chuckled, getting up with a stretch. I smiled as he placed more hoodies around me.

"Here, stand up for a moment, I got pillows."
I grumbled, getting up on shaky legs and moving over. By instinct, as soon as he placed pillows down, I curled down on them.
I felt his warmth next to me and purred
happily.

Why was I so tired?

-

"George?" I peeked up, for a second before snuggling back down. "Darryl is on the phone."
I excitedly opened my eyes as he put the phone next to me. "George?" I heard Darryl's calm voice, making me smile. Dream snuggled against me. "Hey, Darryl!" I answered, sleepily but with excitement in my voice. "How are you?" He asked, I slowly answered. "Tired..."
I spoke groggily. "I bet." I could hear a chuckle in his voice. "Go back to sleep, talk to you soon." I nodded, slipping back into my sleep.
