Burns and Patches
Why hello there! It's been a while since I've written something about my sona. I found this old sketch of him drawn by one of my favorite artists and got inspired to write this! His official lore isn't all that different and hasn't been updated since I was in high school, so maybe this will become his lore at some point. Please enjoy!

The winding pathways of Outer Vespera were best to be avoided. Emancipated from its wealthy parents, the border town received little in the way of financial assistance. And what it did receive was quickly pocketed by the sleazy politicians who appointed themselves mayor among other positions. Yes, Outer Vespera was a hotbed of discord. Filled to the brim with vagrants, hoodlums, and junkies seeking a quick thrill, it was the type of place mothers warned their cubs about, so their attention was focused on the classroom instead of the streets. It was only fitting that its residents gave OV a cute nickname to remember it by: The Neon Labyrinth.
Secret walked through the Labyrinth's corridors unbothered. While a few of the more mentally unwell inhabitants jeered at him, he passed through in relative silence. Keeping a hand in his jacket pocket, the goat curled his fingers around the metal grip of a handgun. The extra protection was comforting, but ultimately unnecessary. His looks were scary enough.
The entire right side of his body was covered in a diaspora of burn scars. Branching up him like weeds, the rough flesh lived in a tense cohabitation with the soft, meticulously maintained, white fur on his other half. This particular grooming quirk earned Secret the moniker of 'Pretty Boy' amongst his peers. He didn't exactly mind this, there were worse names to be called, but the fact that an empty socket marred the face beneath his eyepatch left him feeling that it was rather ironic.
He painted himself a monster. Quite a rotten one at that. Born from the dredges of the Labyrinth, horns black as the devil's heart, Secret stalked the streets, carrying out whatever grizzly job his boss threw him. But the truth was, Secret was just a boy. A boy who desperately missed playing cards with his mother at night and smiling while following his dad to work because he wanted to be just like him one day. When he showed up in OV hungry and looking for work, nobody questioned it. Because they all needed someone like him, someone with revenge blazing in his eye.
The Violet Garden's sign sparked as Secret approached it, the G flickering on and off. An overweight rottweiler stood by the door, eyes full of malice as he yelled at a disgruntled patron. Spittle flew from his maw, coating the poor feline's face. But when his eyes landed on Secret, his attention switched completely.
“If it isn't my favorite customer!" Benji yelled, elbowing the cat in the stomach. Secret watched as the guy crumpled over in the street.
“Oh him?" the dog continued, turning back towards the nameless cat. “A little too rough with one of the boys." Benji jabbed his foot into the downed feline for good measure, smiling when he groaned in pain. “But now that you're here, my night is significantly better. Come in, come in." As he followed Benji inside, Secret spat on the cat. The world would be better off without greedy bastards like that.
The Violet Garden was all smoke and forgotten dreams. Young men wandered around the drab lobby, flocking to anyone who looked like they had money. They rubbed up against significantly older gentlemen, their eyes sultry, ready to do anything for the spare change they carried around in their pockets. The boys knew to avoid Secret; his gaze was already claimed.
“You know the drill," Benji said, standing behind the front desk. Secret sighed and pulled the gun out of his pocket, sliding it over to the rottweiler. “And?" he asked, not convinced. The goat rolled his good eye, fishing a knife out of his pants pocket and throwing that over as well. Benji's pickled laughter filled the room.
“It's not that I don't trust ya. It's just policy, ya know?" He shrugged his large shoulders and placed the weapons in a bag before locking them away in a safe near the desk. “You'll get them back when you leave, blah blah blah. I bet you just want to see Eclipse, huh?"
Secret couldn't stop the smile from tugging at his lips, and Benji chuckled. “Pretty Boy…" the dog whistled as he turned his attention to a tablet he picked up. The interface was fitted with several different channels, each connected to a room in the brothel. Benji scrolled through the list before stopping at one and tapping the screen.
“Clipsey, yer boyfriend is here," he teased, grinning at the goat. The rottweiler almost turned the tablet off before he clicked on the screen again. “AND DON'T RUN!" came the extra warning.
Despite that, the excited patter of frenzied footsteps could be heard over the low chatter from the patrons in the lobby. They were extra loud barreling down the wooden stairs in the back, almost as if their owner had crashed down them. Benji let out an exasperated sigh.
“This kid…" he grumbled, paw over his face.
Soon enough, a tornado of a wolf came barrelling down the hallway, skidding to a stop in front of the two men. His chest heaved as he tried to catch his breath, tiny beads of sweat pooling around his eyebrows. As the name suggested, this was Eclipse, a jet black wolf whose fur pinked in patches around his body. Most noticeable at the tips of his ears, the soft spot around his belly button, and, as Secret quickly discovered, his ass. This young firecracker was anything but easy to handle.
Throwing himself at the goat, Eclipse embraced him in a hug. Secret happily returned the favor, breathing in a strong whiff of the wolf's sweet perfume. “I was getting a little worried there," Eclipse said, muttering the words into the goat's chest. Secret combed a hand through his long hair, reassuring him.
“I'm not gonna die that easy." His voice was smoky and corrosive. It was the low drawl of the rustic, cowboy heartthrob from the old westerns. Secret didn't speak often, but when he did, everyone listened. His voice demanded attention.
“No. That you got yourself another whore," Eclipse accused, poking the goat in the chest. Secret scoffed.
“Don't call yourself that."
“Can't change what I am~" The wolf flicked his tail, playfully smacking the goat's ass before leading him back down the hallway. Despite this statement, Eclipse was dressed much more modest than the other boys in the Garden. His fur was almost completely covered, choosing to wear a tightly cut tuxedo pressed closely against his toned chest. Instead of the usual slacks that accompanied this sort of dress, the wolf sported a pair of leather leggings that hugged his hips and thighs, revealing everything without showing anything. Secret couldn't help but lick his lips as he followed Eclipse down the hallway, Benji's boisterous laughter sending them off.
The walk back to the wolf's room was done in silence, but both parties were content with that. Eclipse swayed his hips as he hummed to himself, skipping a step at a time as he bounded up the stairs. Secret had to quicken his pace to keep up. This wolf enchanted him when he visited the brothel for the first time a couple years back. Eclipse was a lot less confident back then. When Benji brought the boys down for a line-up, he didn't look Secret in the eye. But there was something about him. Maybe it was the way he blushed when Secret couldn't take his eye off him, the young wolf squirming in his own fur. Or maybe it was the fur itself, splotched with pink patches, a picture of the sun peaking out from the moon. Whatever it was, Secret instantly felt a connection to him. He wanted him, and Eclipse was almost his.
As soon as the door was closed, Secret was pinned against it, the wolf desperately undoing his tie and gray button-down shirt.
“I've missed you," Eclipse said, tossing the goat's clothes haphazardly on the floor. What was left was all taut muscle and scarring, a body forged from dangerous work and somehow not dying to it yet. He drank up the smell of recently applied shampoo, licking the goat's fur with lustful abandon. Secret watched with a pleased smile on his face.
“You miss my money," he responded, causing Eclipse to stop and give him a nasty look.
“You know Benji takes most of it."
“Even the tips?" Secret asked. Eclipse's eyes floated over to his bed, a modest-looking thing with black sheets. Queen sized, but only because those were more comfortable to fuck on.
“No, I still keep those," he said, his voice slightly downtrodden.
“The way I told you to?" Eclipse sighed and placed his head on the goat's chest.
“Yes, Secret. Is it so hard to believe that I genuinely enjoy your company?" Secret didn't respond. Instead, he stared at Eclipse, trying to get across a message he couldn't communicate through words. He felt like a schoolboy again in here, giddy, his heart skipping beats. When he looked into the wolf's eyes, he saw the future. One where they didn't have to slink around, their relationship purely transactional. But when no response came, the broken smile on Eclipse's face made him uneasy. “Yeah, I get it. Less talking, more sucking."
-o-
Eclipsed sighed while fiddling with Secret's belt. He tried closing himself off, focusing on the way his black-furred fingers glided over the smooth metal, but the heart was a dangerous thing. It beat inside him like a drum, alerting him to the emotions he wanted to feel, but knew he didn't have access to. It couldn't have been love yet; they only knew each other as client and whore, their fickle relationship going no deeper than the cash he stuffed between his mattress. But oh, how his heart raced when Benji's gravelly voice came through the speaker. It wasn't logical; Eclipse wasn't thinking straight. But despite this, he still wanted to please the goat in front of him. The man he only knew through dirty street rumors and even dirtier private sessions. At least in his room, Secret was real. He was there.
Eclipsed shoved his face into the goat's undergarments before his pants were all the way down, soaking in the intoxicating smell of his partner's musk. Hints of the shampoo still lingered, but most of it was overpowered by the unmistakable weight of lust. It clung to Secret like concrete and needed a certain wolf to set it free.
“Someone's in a rut," Eclipse chuckled before wrapping his tongue around the outline of Secret's cock. This action alone was enough to cause the goat's dick to throb, growing into a much more recognizable shape that poked out the top of his underwear. The wolf had to stop himself from drooling, his own penis peeking out of its sheath, hungry and desperate.
Secret's cock was as mysterious as himself. The flared head, ring in the middle, and thick shaft were those of a horse, but anyone with eyes would be able to tell that this man was undoubtedly a goat. Maybe there had been some crossbreeding somewhere in his lineage? The wolf didn't care. They were way past the point of societal taboos.
It took Eclipse a little bit of effort to remove Secret's underwear. Waistband in mouth, the plucky wolf attempted to pull it over the goat's length, but the fabric kept getting stuck on his ring. Nothing a bit of determination couldn't solve, though. With a pull rough enough to cause the goat to flinch, Secret's cock was now freed, flopping against his stomach before standing at full mast. Satisfied, Eclipse gave the flared tip a kiss before getting to work.
Having intimate knowledge of this area, Eclipse knew exactly what Secret needed. It took nearly his entire paw to massage the goat's enlarged tip, practically having to palm it. He felt this monster for days inside of him after their sessions were done, leaving him with a Secret-shaped hole no other client could fill. The goat rumbled along with Eclipse's movements, a tacit sign of approval. The wolf had mastered multitasking over the years. Dragging his tongue along the underside of Secret's cock while using his paw to pleasure the goat's shaft was second nature. His desire was a fast-acting poison, running through his body and infecting every part of him. Eclipse could feel nothing but want and need and lust as he placed his lips on the goat's throbbing cock, no longer able to hold back.
And oh, was his mouth able to work wonders. Driven by a dedication to the goat, Eclipse drew his tongue from Secret's tip down to the base of his shaft, using his mouth to cover every inch of thick horse cock in saliva. He'd make sure that Secret didn't need another whore. This goat was his, and he was going to prove it.
Eclipse giggled as he sniffed the undercarriage of his partner's package. His nostrils filled with a delicate mixture of that woodsy shampoo, diluted by a thick layer of musk emanating from his goat meat. He could really get drunk off of this stuff. The wolf could tell that Secret wanted, no– needed, to fuck him and pride bubbled in his chest at that realization. His paw, sticky with a generous coating of precum, slid down the goat's pulsating cock with ease. Diving face first into the two fluffy, white orbs below, Eclipse licked the sweat off of Secret's balls.
Gasping for breath, Eclipse's eyes traced back over to the flared head, which was now leaking pre like a faucet. He licked his lips. Deepthroating the thing was practically impossible, but nobody ever reached such heights without a healthy dose of failure. He'd accomplish this task like he accomplished everything else: repeatedly throwing himself at it until whatever it was got tired and gave in.
The wolf had a cocky grin on his face as he wrapped his mouth around Secret's dick. Immediately, it was a lot to take in, putting a little bit of strain on his jaw, but Eclipse was used to that. After a deep breath, which only drove the goat's musk further up his nose, he slid the thick cock into his throat. He kept his eyes on Secret the entire time, who was staring back down at him with that one golden eye of his. In this eye, Eclipse saw euphoria, a state of absolute bliss the goat was currently in. That gave him the courage to shove a full two inches past the heavy ring before completely running out of air.
The wolf knelt there, coughing, holding onto Secret's leg for support. “You didn't have to do that," said the goat, but Eclipse could tell that he was pleased. He knew that he was doing a good job when he could hear the low rumbling in the goat's chest and Secret was purring like a cat.
“You wanted me to," Eclipse responded, breathlessly. He had already gone back to his beloved cock, sucking on the tip to enjoy Secret's natural lubricant. After mulling it over, the goat smirked.
“You know what I want now?~" Secret mused in a low, fiery voice. And Eclipse did know what he wanted. He always did. They were connected in ways clients and whores shouldn't be. He wanted to feel their hearts beating as one, a bond much deeper than the walls of this shitty brothel.
-o-
Secret watched the wolf's tail sway as he was led over to Eclipse's bed. His leggings squeaked as he walked, the leather hugging his ass incredibly tight. He couldn't believe how sexy the wolf was. It was everything about him. The confidence with which he handled Secret's body, worshipping every inch of it like a god, the mesmerizing precision of his movements, causing the goat's eyes to linger much longer than they should, and even that onyx fur, dark as the summer solstice. Secret got lost just staring at it. God, he was perfect.
Eclipse crawled on the bed, giving him a light strip tease before their hours of copulation. Light, because Secret wouldn't be able to wait. He watched lecherously, biting his lip as the wolf shrugged off the tux, revealing his slim shoulders and toned chest. His eye panned downward to Eclipse's crotch, the wolf pulling off the tight leggings and shoes.
As soon as he was out of those, Secret was on top of him. For a second, Eclipse actually looked scared, his eyes wavering with nerves, but they relaxed once Secret leaned down and kissed him. It was strange kissing a client. Eclipse had never done that before and he wasn't sure if he knew how, but with Secret, it just felt right. The two wrestled for control, enjoying the taste of each other's mouths. Eventually, Eclipse let Secret dominate him, the goat's tongue exploring its conquest. When they were done, both of them pulled away, panting. That was downright feral.
“How do you want it?" Eclipse asked between breaths. He looked over at Secret, who was on the edge of the bed, surveying his options.
“Turn over," the goat demanded, so Eclipse did just that, flipping over and getting on all fours for his client. The wolf was used to being bossed around. Many of his clients were pushy, taking what they wanted without sparing him a second thought. That was part of the job description. He had gotten numb to it. Learned to follow directions while being as mentally absent as possible. It was different with Secret, though. Eclipse wanted the goat to boss him around. It felt good to have his strong hands on his shoulders, forcing him into submission. But it wasn't just blind aggression. There was another element to it that the wolf couldn't quite place. Whatever it was, it made the sex so damn good.
Secret couldn't help but take in the sight in front of him. A big, juicy wolf butt that was his for the taking, could he even ask for more? It wasn't long before his tongue was inside Eclipse. The pink patch on his ass was the perfect size for the goat to grip, and he used it to steady himself as he dove in. The wolf tensed, letting out a low rumble of a moan. He had his head in his arms, focusing on the wetness that was exploring his inner walls. Secret was getting drunk off the sweaty hole, but now he was ready.
When he pushed his cock up against Eclipse's entrance, it looked like it wasn't going to fit. The head was bigger than the wolf's taint by a good couple of centimeters. It was almost like trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. Of course, there were a couple of differences. This square peg produced enough lube to glaze the entire hole. Plus, the hole was known to stretch. So all it took was a little bit of grunting on Secret's end, on one knee, the other digging into the bedding as he slid his way into Eclipse. The wolf buried his head into the pillows, trying to dampen the sound of his moans, but the muffled pleasure only turned the goat on more.
Secret pulled on Eclipse's tail, his cock digging further inside of him. The wolf let out a yelp audible enough to make him smirk. He pushed forward slowly at first, letting his mate get accustomed to his size. They hadn't fucked in a while and it was a lot to get used to. As much as the lust coursing through his veins commanded him to mount the poor wolf and make sure he couldn't walk the next day, the last thing he needed was a broken Eclipse and an angry rottweiler chasing him halfway across the country. But in the thick horse cock went, inch by painstakingly long inch. Secret felt the wolf tensing, his inner walls squeezing around him. Eclipse's body was displaying its need for Secret, coaxing him forward. Before he even got all of it in, the outline of his cock pushed against the wolf's stomach.
“Ready?" he asked, a slight tease to his voice. Eclipse growled in response.
“I'll take that as a yes~"
So Secret did what he knew best and let his instincts take over. His hand drove into the wolf's back, pushing him onto the bed. Eclipse didn't even get a second to protest before the goat shut him up by quickly pulling out, then slamming his thick cock back into the unsuspecting wolf. A sultry howl filled the room, marking music to Secret's ears. By now, he had gotten himself into a brutal rhythm. Relentless, the goat attacked his prey, running his cock deeper into the wolf with each thrust. Who knew goats could make such good predators?
He wished he had a leash he could pull on. The tail, while lovely and soft, didn't do this feeling justice. Secret needed to dominate Eclipse. Mark him and claim that patchwork beauty as his own, the fire flaring in his nostrils pushing him forward. He felt his partner's trembling back as he lay on top of him, the wolf's moans no longer being contained. They were ugly and guttural, instinctual and untouched by the falsities his profession called for, just the way Secret liked them. The sounds of wet sex filled the room. As soon as Secret got close enough to feel the wolf's breath curl against his cheek, he bit him. Hard enough for Eclipse's body to tense, inadvertently squeezing the goat's cock as he thrusted inside him.
That final squeeze was enough to bring Secret to climax. Adrenaline pumping, it was euphoric and took the air out of him. Rope after rope of his thick seed pooled inside the wolf, making his stomach bulge ever so slightly.
Both of them were panting again. Sweating and raw, they lay on top of each other as Secret's orgasm continued to spill inside the wolf. Even though the energy had been sapped from his body, his knees starting to wobble, the goat's cock was still hard and the lust swirled around him like a menacing aura. They knew they weren't done yet, but a break was in order.
The wolf spoke first, “Long day at work, huh?" he said through pained pants.
“Yeah, you could say that," the goat grumbled, feeling the need to light a cigarette. He didn't want to think about that darkness right now. That was the monster, all dreams and make-believe, an amalgamation of every nasty trope he could conjure. But here, he was just Secret. And he wanted to be Secret for a little while longer.
“Need to let off more steam?" Eclipsed asked, ass still full of throbbing goat meat. It'd be a while before that thing was satiated. Luckily for both of them, the night was still young. Moonlight filtered through the blinds in slim waves, casting a speckled spotlight on the two. Though the window was closed, the muffled sounds of Outer Vespera nightlife could still be heard. Loud, obscene music, people cheering and dancing, no doubt most of them nearly too drunk to stand. Secret smirked and quickly pulled out, his dick leaving the wolf's butt with a quiet pop!
“Ouch!" Eclipse yipped. “Be careful back there. That ass is expensive."
Secret rolled his eye, “Don't I know it?"
And if only for just a moment, they were untethered. They laughed. A genuine, uncontrollable laughter that racked their bodies. Something they hadn't experienced since the rose-colored film that hid reality's torments had been ripped from their eyes. Both of these men, no matter how dirty their pasts were and presents are, began to see something worthwhile in the future.
Eclipse flipped onto his back, smiling wildly at the goat. “Come on now, big guy. Let me see you this time."
