The air was humid and fresh after the recent downpour of rain that washed all the greenery in the area. Walking towards a flower shop named simply 'Roses' was a towering wolf watching any puddles that littered the pavement as he passed by.It took him a lot of willpower to simply not jump in the puddles like some little pup, but with the few animals here and there, he would surely get them wet with his shenanigans.
The tall animal got looks of worry from any herbivores in his general vicinity, doing double takes on his distant back. This was a usual occurrence for the honestly frightening wolf where his looks did not match his personality in the slightest.
Could you blame the poor animals though? The wolf even had a large scar, three bear marks over his right eye. A scar that could cause many assumptions to rise with one look.
He didn't let the grave or worried expressions bother him, he was all too used to it. Being a large carnivore while owning a flower shop would do this to you. Nobody expects that type of animal to be running a peaceful setting such as dealing with flowers.
Arriving at the doorstep of his shop, he pulled out the key that was in his pocket that would let him through to start the day off. While doing so, he noticed that the flowers he had displayed outside to entice any new customers were watered from the just occurred weather.
Guess the wolf already had a task done before he even stepped through the door.
Gently smiling to himself after realizing this, he entered the place where he spent most of his hours.
The view of hanging plants matched with multiple displays of flowers littered the building ranging from various colors and types.
The wolf breathed in deeply, his overly sensitive nose from being a canine picked up more than a dozen different types of fragrances making it overwhelming but calming.
Making sure not to topple any display over or bump into any hanging plants which would meet their doom by connecting to the floor, he made it to the back where a gifted apron from Jack laid hooked onto the wall.
The front of it had multiple flowers spread across it, leaves and stems twisting and turning from them making a design. But the reason why it was picked out specifically for the wolf was from the small beetles that was crawling throughout the stems.
It was hooked by the cash register where he would make several exchanges and covering some of the different types of bugs that laid on steel shelves that laid behind the desk.
Taking the apron and putting it on with haste admiring his 'pets' or other merchandise is what you could call it.
His fascination with the little critters is what sealed the deal for the carnivore to have his own shop, combining his top two interests.
The wolf then went back to the front to flip the sign over from 'closed' to 'open' to inform any passerbyers to know that 'Roses' was now open. The wolf needed the customers too, doing the task as soon as he could.
Behind the desk that held the register was a door that lead to the storage area where he kept the extra flowers, equipment, and really anything else that could fit. After going inside and grabbing a watering can, the wolf started to water most of the plants to keep them healthy and fresh.
Doing a few more tasks that needed to be done, the most exciting one was sweeping from finding a daddy long legs near the corner which the wolf had a pleasant conversation with, the bell that was held up above the door ringed signaling a customer entered the building.
