The Demon's Pet

Part 6

Dave opened his eyes, seeing dark. He was in his cage again. Honestly, he didn't mind it. At least he knew nothing could get him while he was in here. And it was dark, warm and soft, like his own little den in a world much too big for him.
He rolled around, shifting and adjusting, shifting and adjusting, not wanting to wake Cadeon up but too awake to sleep anymore. His body was restless, fidgety, and he felt cooped up. He was teeming with energy, his muscles aching with the need to move around.
There weren't any toys in his cage, all he had were his blanket and his pillow, and the pillow underneath him. Desperate to get his nerves to stop screaming, Dave sat up, scrubbing his face and looking around in the dark. He was bored, the understimulating environment frustrating him. He sat Indian style and started bouncing his leg, trying to get some kind of movement going. He didn't know how long he sat there, stewing in his bored frustration, when he heard a noise from somewhere else in the house.
Dave froze, listening carefully. It sounded like...pots and pans?
Dave growled in annoyance. Cadeon wasn't even in here! Dave flopped back onto his bed, huffing. He crossed his arms, bouncing one of his legs. He was frustrated and antsy and wanted out so he could move around, expel some of his energy. But he didn't know how to get Cadeon's attention from all the way in here without potentially getting in trouble.
Angrily, Dave gripped the cage door and rattled the bars-
"Oi!" A deep voice suddenly said, making Dave jump. He snatched his hands away from the bars and held them to his chest, looking around.
"What the fuck're you doing?" Cade asked, lifting the cover and looking in at Dave.
Dave ducked his head, looking up at him shyly. "I-I.... I'm...fidgety. And my muscles hurt." He said sheepishly.
Cade tapped the cage. "Do not. Rattle. These bars. Do you understand me?" Cadeon said sternly.
Dave curled in on himself, ducking his head. "Yes, Daddy." He said quietly.
"Good boy." Cade praised, and stood, unlocking the cage door. "Now come get your breakfast. If you can behave," he said pointedly. "Daddy's got a fun day planned."
Dave crawled out of the cage, keeping his head low as he slunk to the kitchen. His body felt a bit better now that he was moving around, though. He sat down on the floor in front of his stand as Cadeon set his bowls in it.
Scrambled eggs, ripped up french toast and bacon, with orange juice. Dave's stomach growled, and he dug in. The french toast tasted amazing, and the eggs were perfectly fluffy. The bacon was wiggly and chewy, just how Dave liked it.
He finished his food and gulped down the orange juice, wiping his mouth. He stood up, brushing his hands of-
"Ah!" Cadeon snipped abruptly, snapping his fingers and pointing down. "Sit."
Dave sat back down, curling in on himself again. God, he was doing everything wrong this morning. Disappointment stabbed at his chest, and he stared at the floor.
A few minutes passed before Cadeon finished his food and stood, bending down to grab Dave's bowls. "Now you can get up and go play. For a few minutes." Cadeon told him, rubbing his head.
Oh, okay, maybe Cadeon wasn't mad at him. Feeling relieved, Dave got up and wandered into the living room, digging through his box of toys and pulling out his coloring book and colored pencils. He got comfy on the floor and continued the page hed left off on.
It was a picture of a four-armed demon that he was coloring as Cadeon. The spots were tricky, but he managed. Orange fading to scarlet red, the rest of his skin yellow, and those solid yellow eyes. He carefully shaded the area around his eyes to give off that yellow glow. His hair was short, shaved around the sides, leaving only the top to spike up, and it was the same color as his spots.
He finished his drawing and signed his name at the corner of the picture, then started flipping through the book for something new to color.
"Alright, short stuff." Cadeon said, walking in dressed in a pair of jeans and a blue t-shirt. "Let's get ready to go."
Dave blinked at him. "Go? Where are we going?"
Cade smiled. "Out. C'mere." He said, gesturing for him. Dave put all his pencils away and stuck them and the book back with his other stuff, and then walked over to Cade. He was picked up and carried into the bedroom, and laid down on his back on the bed. Cade pulled his boxers off, tossing them into the hamper before pulling another pair up Dave's legs, these ones also pink. Cade settled them comfortably at Dave's hips, and then picked him up, setting him on his feet on the bed. "Stay." Cade commanded, and then walked over to the dresser. Dave stayed put as told, watching Cade grab something off the top of the dresser. The big demon walked back over, holding some kind of strap. Dave tilted his head, brows drawing down in confusion.
Cade snorted. "You're so cute." He said, turning Dave around and maneuvering him so the straps were around his chest, fastened snugly at his back. Cade tugged on a few places, making sure it was snug.
Dave was struck with the realization that this was a harness.
He looked down, seeing that it was the same color as his collar, bright green. He heard a click behind him, and turned around, seeing Cade had a green leash in his hand. Dave was picked up, and Cade headed for the door.
Dave winced and covered his eyes when Cade opened the door. Fuck, it was bright out.
"Awww, did the sun hurt your poor little eyes, baby?" Cade asked as he pulled the door shut, locking it.
Dave nodded, blinking rapidly as his eyes slowly got used to the light. Cade kissed his temple, getting into the car.
The car was gigantic, making Dave feel like a toddler. The steering wheel towered over him, and if he stretched up, he could peek out the window.
Cade settled into the seat and picked Dave up, placing him in the passenger seat. The car fired up and off they went.
Dave stood up and looked out the window, watching the landscape go by. Red sky, orange-pink grass, pink and orange trees... those big black creatures roamed around, making Dave nervous. They were even more grotesque than he thought.
Soon, they pulled off the gravel road and onto a paved road. After a while, the warm hues of the country began to give way to civilization, houses and shops and restaurants appearing. Cade rolled down Dave's window a bit, and he enjoyed the fresh air. They stopped at a stoplight and Dave looked over at the car beside them. It was a nice car, a light blue convertible with a white stripe down the side, and white wheels. He looked at the occupants and did a double take, standing at attention.
There was a human in that car! He had a pink collar with gemstones on it, and blonde hair. He looked over at Dave and his eyes narrowed. Dave gave him a confused look, and the other human crawled across the seat into the lap of the purple demon female driving.
"Hey!" the other human shouted.
"...What?" Dave asked, confused.
The other human looked him in the eyes. "Fuck you!"
Dave blinked, brows drawing down. "Fuck you!" He threw back.
"No, fuck you!"
"Fuck you!"
"Fuck - you!!!"
"Fuck off!" Dave growled.
"Eat my ass!"
"Bite me!"
"Gargle on my balls, bitch boy!" The other human shouted.
"Cooper, hush! Sit back down!" The purple demon snapped at the human, tugging on his collar to drag him back to the passenger seat.
Cade sped off when the light turned green, and Dave heard him laughing. Dave peered back at the other car, growling. He felt Cade pet his head, scratching it. Dave grumbled and settled down, resting his chin on the car door.
Eventually, they came up to a shop and pulled into the parking lot. Dave looked around as Cade parked and turned the car off. He got out, closing the door behind him. Dave was about worry about being left alone when Cade walked up to his door, scooping him up out the window and carrying him towards the store.
"Where are we?" He asked.
"You'll see." Cade answered, opening the door. He set Dave down on the floor and grabbed his leash. "Come on, Davey." He said, walking into the second set of sliding doors.
It was a pet shop. There were toys, beds, clothes, food, all kinds of things. Dave followed Cade, looking around. A blush touched his cheeks. It felt...strange to be walking around in public in his underwear. But no one gave him a second glance, relieving a bit of his embarrassment. He stopped suddenly, looking at the shelf that had the candy on it. He felt his leash jerk, and stumbled a bit, looking up at Cade.
"Whadja find? Treats?" Cade asked, walking over to him. "You wanna pick out some treats?"
"Yes, Daddy." Dave replied, craning his head back to look up at him.
"Well, pick some out."
Dave looked back at the shelf, looking around. Reece's, Snickers bites, slimjims, beef jerky, sour patch kids... There were so many decisions.
"Can i pick one as a snack and one as a treat?" He asked tentatively.
"Hmmm..." Cade pondered, narrowing his eyes at the candy. "Yeah, i suppose." He finally said.
Dave smiled excitedly and pointed at the bag of beef jerky. "I want that, for a snack." He said, and then pointed up at the big bag of almond Joy bites. "And i want those as a treat."
Cade grabbed the two bags. "Alright, come on." He said, leading him through the store. Dave followed, stopping when he saw another human. This human had black hair and blue eyes, and was wearing cargo shorts. Dave tilted his head, curious. He was about to start inching closer, but Cade jerked his leash, urging him forward. Dave obediently followed, trying not to let his curiosity get the best of him. Cade stopped in front of the clothes section, looking at the shoes.
"You can tie shoes, right?" Cade asked.
"Yes, Daddy." Dave answered, looking at the all the shoes.
Cade grabbed a pair of green shoes and knelt down, dropping them in front of Dave. "Try those on."
Dave slipped his feet into the shoes, tying them. Cade felt around for his toes. "Are they comfortable?"
"Yes, Daddy." Dave replied, shifting his weight.
"Alright. Keep them on." He said, ripping the tag off and straightening back up. "Come on, lets go." He said, heading for the front of the store. He stopped, grabbing a white snapback and fitting it on Dave's head, and smiling. "That's cute. Okay come on." He said, grabbing the snapback and throwing it on the counter. "This is the tag for the shoes." He told the cashier.
She leaned over the counter to look at Dave. She was light blue, with even lighter blue horns that started at her forehead and curved back, with light green hair pulled into a bun. "Well hi there, cutie!" She exclaimed excitedly. "Would you like a cookie?"
"Yes please." He answered.
She reached into a bucket and leaned down to hand him a cookie. "Here sweetheart."
"Thank you." He said, eating the cookie.
"He is so well behaved!" She told Cade, scanning their stuff.
"I know, right? He's a good boy." Cade replied, petting Dave's head. "Would you believe i got him a few days ago? He was a stray."
"Really? That's impressive." She remarked. She read him his total and he swiped a card. Dave wondered what it was Cade did for a living. He seemed pretty rich.
He would have pondered it more, but Cade grabbed the bag and started heading for the door, sticking the white snapback on Dave's head.
"That should keep the sun out of your eyes." He said, smirking. "You hungry?"
"Yes, Daddy." Dave answered, following him into the parking lot.
"Alright we'll go to a restaurant." He said, opening the passenger door and putting Dave in the seat.
Dave waited until Cade was getting behind the wheel before he spoke. "Am I allowed in a restaurant?"
"Yes." Cade answered, buckling in. "Different dimension, different rules, Davey."
The car started and Dave stood up in the seat, looking out the window again. He watched the scenery go by. There was something freeing about this. He had no worries, no responsibilities, nothing to stress about. He could just stand here and watch the shops go by. Granted, he wasn't in control of any aspect of his life, but he almost didn't mind. He wasn't faced with difficult decisions, and when he behaved, he was pampered and spoiled. He just had to give up his freedom...and his ass.
They pulled into another parking lot that smelled absolutely wonderful. Cadeon got out of the car, and then let Dave out, heading towards the door. Inside, it was loud and crowded. There were demons everywhere, a rainbow of tall.
Dave scooted a bit closer to Cade, standing between his legs so he didn't get trampled while Cade talked to the blue and orange hostess.
Through the crowd of legs, he saw a few humans here and there, wearing a variety of clothing, from boxers and barefoot to fully dressed in designer clothes. They either had collars or harnesses, and all were on leashes.
"Watch out, let's go. Follow her." Cade told Dave, nudging him forward. Dave followed the demoness, anxiety building in his chest the deeper into the restaurant they got. The hostess stopped at an empty table, and Cade sat down.
"Would you like a booster seat for him?" The hostess asked, handing Cade a menu.
"Yes, please." Cade answered, picking Dave up and setting him on his lap. "Alright, baby, this section is human servings." Cade told Dave, pointing at a menu with both words and pictures. "Pick what you want."
Dave looked at the menu, expecting something like a kids menu, but was surprised to find a few really good things on it.
"Uhm.... A rare steak and a supreme baked potato with a side of steak fries?" He asked, looking up at Cade.
"Is that what you want?"
"Yes, Daddy."
"What do you want to drink?"
Dave looked back at the menu. "Sprite with no ice."
"Alright. Ah, right on cue." He said as a waitress came up with a booster seat. She fastened it to the chair and Cade set Dave up in it, pushing his chair in.
"Okay." Cade said as he sat back down. "He would like a rare steak with a supreme baked potato and steak fries, and a sprite with no ice. Can i get that steak cut up?"
"Sure thing, Doll. Silverware?" The waitress asked.
"Yes, he feeds himself. And i would like the berserker burger with everything on it, fried okra and hushpuppies. With a cherry Sundrop."
"Alright, your drinks will be out shortly. Lid or open top for the sprite?"
"Open top with a straw." Cade answered, handing over his menu with a smile.
The waitress walked away, and Dave looked around the restaurant. Humans and demons were everywhere, along with a few dogs and some multi-colored short people. Humans were either in booster seats, in demons' laps, or on the floor. Some were eating, some were being fed, some weren't eating at all. Cade was the only four-armed demon, as usual.
Curiosity getting the better of him, Dave took off his hat and looked at it. It was white, and on the front in light blue letters, it read "Daddy's Baby Boy."
Dave felt his cheeks heat a bit and he put his hat back on, twiddling his thumbs. Cade was scrolling on his phone, so Dave rested his chin on his hand, tracing patterns on the table.
The waitress returned with the drinks, placing the red one in front of Cade, and the much smaller cup in front of Dave, along with a little restaurant coloring book and some crayons.
"Thank you." He told the waitress, sipping his drink.
"You're very welcome, sweetheart. Your food should be about fifteen minutes."
When she left, Dave picked up his crayons and started coloring in the cartoony pictures of food, just grateful for something to do.
After a while, the food came out, Dave's steak cut up for him and red in the middle. He graciously took the fork and started eating.
The potato had butter, cheese, bacon and sour cream. The fries were perfectly crispy, and the steak melted in his mouth. This was the best food he'd ever eaten. Nothing needed any seasoning, everything was perfect, and he was sad when it was gone.
Dave finished his soda and leaned back.
"Full, baby?" Cade asked him, smirking.
Dave nodded, letting his head fall back.
"Alright, lets go." He said, standing and picking Dave up, setting him on the floor.
Dave followed him, sticking close. He made his way through the bar crowd towards the register, and Dave just tried not to get stepped on. While he talked to the hostess and paid, someone stared down at Dave. It was a black demon with glowing solid eyes, like Cade's, but red. His hair floated around him in wisps of smoke, and smoke curled from his nostrils and his eyes. Dave curled into himself, trying to hide from the demon. That red gaze never left him, so Dave shuffled in front of Cade's legs, clutching his pants and hiding his face in them.
Cade reached down to pet Dave, one of his bottom hands resting against Dave's back, the other petting the back of his neck. Anxiety stabbed at his chest. There were too many people, it was too loud, he was being stared at, it was all just too much to handle. He whimpered a bit, trembling slightly.
"Hey, hey, shhh." Cade said, leaning down to pick Dave up, holding him close and rubbing a warm hand over his back. Dave buried his face in Cade's neck, drawing his arms to his chest.
"No, he's fine, its his first day out in public. He has been very good! You said thirty two forty three? Oh he's so well behaved, he's Daddy's Good Boy, aren't you baby?"
Dave blushed, hiding his face. Cade paid for the food and headed out, carrying Dave to the parking lot. "What's wrong, baby, was it too much for you?" Cade asked.
Dave nodded, wrapping his arms around Cade's neck.
"Oh my poor baby. We've had a big day, why don't we head home? Daddy's expecting a delivery anyway."
Dave nodded, and when Cade set him down, he curled up in the seat. When the car started moving, it didn't take long for Dave to fall asleep in the seat.

Cade drove home, quite pleased with Dave's behavior. He had been perfectly behaved, and Cade had gotten a better feel for the humans anxiety levels.
When they pulled up to the house, he turned off the car and grabbed his bags, and his sleeping human. Dave seemed to be an extremely heavy sleeper. He carried his cargo into the house, carefully taking off Dave's harness, shoes and hat before setting him in his kennel.
Dave grabbed his blanket and snuggled down into it, looking adorable all comfy in his little bed.
Cade left the cage door open, heading to the living room to call about his fence package. With them arriving to put it up in about three hours, he sat on the couch and watched TV, waiting for them to show up.
When Davey woke up, Cade had to make sure he had his daily orgasm. It was doctor prescribed, after all. And the little Human had been so good today, he deserved one.
When he woke up, Cade would give him both his treats.
