"Look, it's going to be fine," Lykus said, the black and white wolf standing with one hand on his hip and the other gesturing at the floating ZSS letters just over the door. "They're a legitimate business and everything. If they were really doing anything shady, do you think that they could be this obvious?"

"They're rich," Azorious pointed out. "And that means that they could get away with a lot of shit."

"Okay, yeah, maybe, but you're not picking up on anything, are you?"

"...Just a bad feeling," the demon admitted. "Doesn't mean that there isn't something there, though."

"Well, if there is, you'll just rescue me."

"Like usual."

"Hey, I'm not [i]that[/i] bad."

"You're worse, heh. Just...be safe, okay?"

"I will, big guy."

The demon didn't reach out and hug him - that wasn't how Azorious did things, particularly not in public and when stressed. So, Lykus did it for him, stepping into the wolf demon's arms and giving him the tightest hug that he could. A squeeze, proper squeeze, one that ruffled through the thick black and red fur all up and down the wolf's back, giving him a few little scritches until he got a hug in return. Big one, too; Azorious must have been more nervous than he thought.

"Just don't do anything stupid, okay?"

"Oh, come on, how often do I do something stupid?"

"Well, if there's dick on the line -"

"Besides that," Lykus said, stepping out of the hug and waving his hand dismissively. "Besides, it's not a dick place. It's a streaming place. Games, cards, entertainment! I could make a show that the whole [i]world[/i] gets to see!"

Azorious rolled his eyes. Lykus pretended that he didn't see that.

Besides, everything was going to be fine. ZSS might have been a start-up compared to a lot of the other big-name stores and businesses on the north-west side of the bay district, but that didn't mean that they were as shady as Azorious thought. The big hologram letters of the name couldn't have been cheap, and the reflective chrome walls all over the main building screamed money to him. Sure, there were a lot of scummy rich guys that ran parts of Docetri, but it was just the law of averages that some of them had to be decent.

And besides, he knew people that were working for this place. It had to have a few good perks if some of his friends worked here...and recommended it, too.

"Wish me luck with my interview," Lykus said.

"They know you're coming, right?"

"Nope, just doing a walk-in."

"You -"

Whatever the demon wolf was going to call him was lost in the ding-dong of the automatic door opening and announcing him, and when it shut, most of the noise of the busy street behind him disappeared. It was almost enough to leave him dizzy as the city noise, cars, and shouting people just disappeared all at once, leaving him with only a faint vibration through the walls and the sound of his own footsteps on the floor. The wolf turned, his red vest fluttering around him for a moment and the chains on his jeans clicking and clanking, only to smile.

"Cool."

He turned around, meeting the eyes of a rat receptionist sitting behind the front desk. The rat cocked his head to the side as Lykus walked over, looking over his computer. Fuzzy brown reflections of the rat bounced off the chrome walls behind the desk, except for the metal door that clearly led further into the building.

"Can I help you?" the rat asked.

"Yeah, I'm Lykus. I heard about this place and wanted to join."

"You just - you want to join? Just off the street?"

"Mm-hmm."

"...Okay...Where did you hear about us?" the rat asked, turning back to his computer. "Paperwork, you understand."

"Oh, yeah, yeah, completely get that."

Lykus would have sat down, but there was a conspicuous lack of chairs in the lobby. Probably something to get people in and out of the building as fast as possible. From the few things that he'd heard, a lot of the streamer employees of the company came here to do their work, so they probably just got buzzed in and out all the time. No need to sit down and wait for a meeting or -

He was getting distracted. He chuckled.

"A friend of mine - this really cool dragoness, Yana? She told me that she'd done a few streams for ZSS, and that you guys were the best in the business for getting streamers connected to the new fads and new audiences."

"So long as people can keep up the performances, yes." The rat chuckled, typing a few keys. "So, Yana, eh? And anything else?"

"Well, about me? I'm a card guy. Games, all kinds of stuff, really, but I [i]love[/i] cards. I'm hoping that I can join you guys, start doing some shows about building up the best decks, playing games, and just having high-energy fun times. You know, maybe flirt a bit - you guys okay with that in your ToS and stuff?"

Snikt.

"I think I can answer that."

Lykus looked up from the rat and blinked at the jackal that had just stepped through the back door. She was quite tall, five-foot-nine, and wore a green suit that was so dark that it was almost a shade of black. A muted golden tie broke it up, as did the gold ear piercings that caught the light and shimmered in their own way. Lykus wasn't sure how he felt about the dollar sign or the open eye up there, but they were certainly a statement. The jackal swayed as she walked over, leaning on the other side of the desk in such a way that he could almost see a hint of her cleavage.

Wasn’t a boob man, but she was doing pretty well. Very sensual, very fun. He liked that in management.

"So, a cute wolf like you looking for a job, hmm?" She chuckled. "Or are you just looking for a free set-up?"

"Well, honestly, bitta both," Lykus admitted. "But I'm good for it. I can do [i]great[/i] shows."

"Heh, come with me. We'll have a little chat and see how you vibe with our values."

"Hey, sounds good to me. Love to vibe."

"I'm sure."

She winked, and he had a feeling that she meant a whole different kind of vibe. He grinned; this was looking better and better.

Guiding him around the desk and into the hallway, the jackal led him through the central hall of the company. They passed many closed doors of various recording studios, each one occupied.

"We're currently full-up on in-house streamers, but I get the feeling that you'd like the privacy to do what you'd like. You strike me as a very loud and, heh, 'proud' streamer, am I right?"

"Heh, I guess you could call me that," Lykus said, ears flicking about every time the faintest sound caught them. "I just like to be me, no hiding, no shame."

"That include all the dick-sucking you do?"

"Ha! How could you tell?"

"There's a smudge on your cheek. And you smell like cum."

"Heh, guilty."

Okay, yeah, he [i]liked[/i] this place.

The jackal led him out of the hallway, through the cafeteria, and up to the third floor via an elevator. She pulled him by the wrist into a small office to the right of the elevator door and sat him down in front of a desk, then took a seat herself on the opposite side.

"So, let's do the name thing again," she said, bowing her head. "I'm Huang Tai, the secondary manager of the building. When the full manager isn't here, I'm the one in charge, though you'll find I'm not [i]too[/i] pushy about most things. Asma will probably be busy enough managing the building that you won't hear from her too often; I'm the one that takes care of all our remote workers unless something goes [i]very[/i] wrong between them and the clients."

"Great, then we should get along just fine," Lykus said, chuckling. "And I'm Lykus. You already know that."

"Indeed. Now. Pitch yourself. What do you bring? Besides cock-sucker energy."

"Love how you say it like it isn't a bad thing."

"That's because it isn't. Some of the best go-getters I know are dick-fiends. But what else you got?"

"Well..."

Lykus leaned back. He wasn't usually one to brag - well, not like this - but he supposed he'd have to sell himself somewhat. He shrugged.

"I'm a high-energy wolf that's got a lot of stuff bouncing around his noggin. I love talking about anything that comes to mind, and I can keep any kind of conversation going. Gimme something hot to talk about, and I can bend your ear for hours just yapping about it. And I don't get tired, heh. Gimme anything fun, and I'll keep it going for [i]hours.[/i]"

The jackal nodded, leaning back with her hands folded over her lap. She gestured for him to keep going, and he did.

"And I'm comfortable with just about anyone. I can get a hate-raid and have 'em all loving me by the end of the stream. There's all kinds of ways to treat them, and I bet you that I'll have some of them thirsty for me, too. If that's alright?"

"Mmmm, there's a category of streamers that can get away with that. We'll come back to that later, though."

"Thanks. Anyway, the big thing I think I offer is that I'm always looking for something new. I don't want to get stuck in a rut and do the same thing over and over and over again. I want to do cool stuff, new things, the newest things. So, if you need someone to test the fads and see how they're working with the audience out there, I'm the best guy you can get. I'll do anything new just to try it out and see if I like it."

"Mmmm, now that is promising. I think -"

"I think that I should take it from here."

Lykus blinked. Not only hadn't he heard anyone come in, but he hadn't smelled them, either. He slowly looked over his shoulder, spotting a crocodile woman that was a full nine inches taller than the jackal standing in the doorway. Unlike the jackal's curvy sort of silhouette, the crocodile stood tall and lean. She had some hips, but it was hard to see compared to the way that she loomed up and over him, chuckling to herself as she walked around his chair and stood beside Huang Tai.

"I have been looking for someone just like you," the crocodile said. "And provided that you pass the initial stream-test, I think that I'd be more than willing to offer you a full-time contract."

"Oh, I don't know that I can do 'full'-time. I mean, part-time would be better. Schedules and all."

"I understand. Let's say a six-month contract with a minimum set of hours that you have to meet each month?"

"...I think I can do that."

"Splendid. Tai. Go and get a template ready. Lykus and I have business to conduct."

"Alright, Asma, I'm going."

Asma. So, this was the one that ran the whole building. As the jackal left and the crocodile sat down, Lykus kept a smile on his face, but it went from an easy one to a grin he had to work for. Her toothy grin made him feel like there was something else sitting on the other side of the desk now, and it didn't entirely feel like another mortal. Those eyes had a hunger that he had only ever seen in other demons, but Asma didn't [i]feel[/i] anything like Azorious.

He forced a chuckle.

"So, uh, did I just walk down to the wrong river? You're looking at me like I'm dinner."

"Oh, no, Lykus. I'm looking at you like a three-course dinner."

"Is...that a good thing?"

"Very, very good."

"...Oh, boy..."

#

It took two weeks, but the gear showed up at the wolf's apartment. The laborers that brought it unboxed it and set it up with him overseeing them, and by the time they left, Lykus had completely forgotten about all the weirdness that had been part of the interview. All of his attention was on the goods that they'd brought.

"Holy crap, this is a good camera," he said, tilting the tripod up and down and pointing it all around the room. "And a ceiling-cam, too? God, I'm going to be streaming all kinds of shows to Drac and the other guys in my off-time."

"This is a lot of expensive stuff; how much do you owe them before you start getting paid?" Azorious asked, standing in the doorway.

"Oh, nothing."

"Nothing."

"It's all rented. I can keep earning as much as I want as long as they get it back in good shape. I just need to be careful."

"This feels off."

"Yeah, that's what I was thinking, but they're open about all the finances and numbers. Hell, they're fine with me flirting with the audience, too; do you know how many services get all kinds of pissy the minute you get the wrong kind of 'adult' on them?"

"Too many," Azorious muttered, the wolf demon rolling his eyes. "The last time I tried telling someone that they'd look cute with a dick in their mouth -"

"Pew. Banned."

"Heh. So, you can do that, then?"

"Oh, yeah."

"Gonna have to tune in and tease the crap out of you, then."

"Please! I want you there."

"Heh, alright. So, what's the first stream, then?"

"Oh! These!"

Lykus turned from the cameras and soundboards to another small package that had come with all the streaming gear. One slice with his claw and the box-tape came loose, and he yanked the smaller box inside out for the demon to see.

"Stream-cards?" Azorious asked, arching an eyebrow. "I don't get it."

"It's a game played between the streamer and the chat, apparently," the wolf said, tossing the card case from hand to hand. "I'll be on a timer, and chat has to redeem money or points to draw cards to use against me. I build up creature walls, they try and get past it to 'attack' me. I'm not sure how it works, but I'll be reading the rules on stream for me and anyone that tunes in. So, you still want to join?"

"Heh. We'll see. I might watch for a bit."

"Hehehehe."

"What?"

"Just remembering the last time that we had a card game."

"Oh, don't go there; I was in the [i]shit[/i] last time."

"You're just sore because I won."

"Yeah. Duh."

"Heh. Anyway, I should get set up and get started."

Azorious nodded, stepping back and closing the door. Lykus shook his head and looked at the mess of all the stuff that he'd been given. He'd known that ZSS would be generous - all his friends said that they were - but he hadn't expected stuff that was so high-quality.

He'd have to up his game to make sure that he was giving the best show he could. The last thing that he wanted was to not live up to the hype that he'd built for himself.

After making sure that everything was properly assembled, the floor was clear, and that there was a good table for playing the game set up in the camera's line of sight, Lykus took a deep breath and sat down. He looked at the camera in front of him, then up at the one in the ceiling, and smiled. It was time.

Once he logged into ZSS servers and turned on the streaming option, he was briefly introduced to a pair of company mods - LupineSeeker21 and ManMan30 - that laid out the basics. They'd be moderating the chat in the background, keeping any abuse from coming through without his consent, and making sure that the connection stayed strong. They'd handle all the tech-y bits so that he could stay on top of the chat, the game, and everything that was more the entertainment and personality side.

"Thanks," Lykus said. "How long until we go live?"

[i]ManMan30: Twenty seconds.[/i]

"Awesome. Any audience waiting?"

[i]LupineSeeker21: We've got twenty viewers pending for new streamers, and a few that are logging in and looking for your username. Starting around two dozen or so.[/i]

"Wow. Gonna be good."

He hadn't expected quite so many for the first stream, but hey, if they were interested in him, he was more than happy to have them there. The wolf's tail wagged as he turned to the camera, putting the card box on the table as he waited. The seconds ticked down, one by one, until -

Ping.

The screen by the camera went live, and the chat-box started filling almost right away. The comments streamed up, running almost faster than he could read.

[i]HotFox: Finally, was wondering when this was going to go live.

DeerRunner4: Oh, what's this?

DeerRunner4: Cutie.

HotFox: This guy's not bad.

NaniteUser50: Looks like a kid.

NaniteUser50: Twinky, though. You think he knows?[/i]

"Wow, lots of people already," Lykus said, shaking his head with a smile. "But hey, welcome to my first stream. I don't know how many of you are going to stick around for the whole thing, but appreciate all of you coming in already. And thanks for the cuties; I know I am."

He laughed, leaning back as the chat continued to run up the side of the screen. Some of them were already flirting with him, a couple of them wondering how he looked shirtless, while others were being more polite and welcoming him as a new streamer. All in all, it was a surprisingly nice little chat-box for people that had never seen him before. He'd been braced for something a little more intense, people that he'd have to work harder to win over, but here they were, already being nice and eager and happy.

He'd have to ask Tai if she curated this personally, or if there was something that ZSS did to make sure that everyone had a good first stream. It was making a great impression on him, that was for sure.

"So, everyone. I'm Lykus, and I'm a game-wolf. I love cards."

He tossed the box up, catching it in his mouth as it came back down. After a bit of playful slobbering, he took it out of his mouth to the giggles and teases from the stream.

[i]HotFox: Wow, nice catch.

HotFox: Can you do anything else with that maw?

NaniteUser50: Loooooong tongue.

DeerRunner4: Yeah. Looking respectfully.[/i]

"Heheheh, I don't mind. Look away; just make sure you DM me what you're thinking later."

Lykus winked as he set the box of cards on the table, patting it a few times.

"Anyway, this is the new game that ZSS sent me to play with you guys on stream. Never touched it myself before, so I have no idea how it works or what it's like, so we'll be figuring that out together. I think that'll be fun, don't you?"

Flicking the lid off the box, he held out the deck to the camera.

"See, never been opened, still all wrapped up on the inside. Looks nice and shiny, too."

[i]HotFox: Wait, is that -

DeerRunner4: Oh, that's gonna be fun.

DeerRunner4: I was part of the beta test. This is gonna be a treat.

HotFox: Oh, fuck. I've heard of this.

HotFox: Sure this is your first time, Lykus?[/i]

"Yep, and I can't wait. So, this a fun game?"

[i]DeerRunner4: Oh, yeah.

DeerRunner4: Lots of fun.[/i]

"Awesome! Let's get it started, then."

Grinning as wide as his muzzle would let him, Lykus pulled the plastic-wrapped deck out of the box and cut it open. As soon as he could get the cards out, he shuffled them, enjoying the feeling of a fresh set that clicked and rustled against each other as he mixed them up. The old ones lost that sound, and the new ones were nice and crisp and he loved it.

He laid the deck down, looked at the cards again -

[i]Shwoooooom.[/i]

And as soon as he laid his eyes on the gold-backed cards, something went funny in his brain. The spiraling backs suddenly seemed to spin, and Lykus's eyes rolled back a bit. As he wobbled in his seat, he could just barely see the chat keep going by.

[i]HotFox: Oh, wow.

HotFox: that's a big trance.

DeerRunner4: Yep.

DeerRunner4: The deck's enchanted, big mind magics.

NaniteUser50: He going deep?

DeerRunner4: Deep as he can.[/i]

Hypno? He hadn't signed up for that. He hadn't -

[i]Shwooooooom.[/i]

The deck spiraled again as he looked down, and one more, everything spun around him. Lykus rolled back and forth on his seat, almost falling forward, then almost falling back. The only thing that kept him upright was the solid construction of his chair, and he still struggled to keep his balance. He tried to look away, but his eyes fell down on the deck again -

[i]Shwoooooooooooom.[/i]

The strongest spiral yet pulled at his thoughts, his mind, his very sense of the world, and he felt almost like he was tumbling forward, all his thoughts falling right out of his eye-sockets and onto the desk. He couldn't lean back anymore; all he could do was stare at the spirals that spun in golden circles on the back of the cards. A familiar sense of relaxation ran up and down his spine, slowly pulling any and all tension out of his arms and legs and shoulders. He slumped against the deck, his mouth hanging open ever so slightly, and his tongue slowly fell out of his mouth, a little bit of drool hanging from the end of his tongue.

Spiral.

Spiral.

Spiral.

[i]HotFox: Wow.

HotFox: that was fast.

DeerRunner4: Quick, someone redeem -

[b]NaniteUser50 Has Redeemed 1 Card for $10[/b]

NaniteUser50: Done.[/i]

Lykus moaned as he felt a tremor of odd pleasure at that announcement, almost like something was buzzing him right at the base of his cock. He reached out to the deck, his body moving on its own. He couldn't stop it, only stare as his fingers gripped the top card of the deck and turned it over.

It was a simple illustration, though explicit. It showed a sheath that was soft, then an arrow leading to an image of a sheath that was not just showing cock, but spilling an erection for all the world to see. It was a big, powerful erection, one that throbbed with veins along the side and dribbled with pre-cum, so much of it that the flow ran right off the card and seemed to keep on coming.

Lykus had barely seen the image before a sense of pleasure slammed into him, hitting him hard enough that his dick started rising up from his sheath under the table. He moaned, his hips twitching against the chair. His head, so warm and fuzzy and empty, barely understood what was going on. All he knew was that it felt good, that he was good and that everything was getting better with each passing second. The wolf moaned as he pushed the card forward for the camera to see -

[i]HotFox: Is that...making him hard?

DeerRunner4: First time?

DeerRunner4: Short answer, yes.

DeerRunner4: Each card makes something lewd happen. It's some kinda Body/Perception magic enchanted into it.

HotFox: Dammit, and we can't see it?

HotFox: Fucking waste.

DeerRunner4: You could redeem a card yourself.

HotFox: Fiiiiiine.

[b]HotFox Has Redeemed 4 Cards for $40.[/b][/i]

Once more, Lykus moaned, his eyes rolling back in his head as the pleasurable shivers echoed out from his cock and balls, running in happy-vibes up and down his spine and all the way down to his feet. His cock throbbed harder, spitting pre-cum into the insides of his pants, and...and he was already reaching out for more cards, more things to play.

[i]What...why...[/i]

Thought was next to impossible, but pleasure and action were easy. One, two, three, four cards from the top of the deck - what a generous patron - and he was giggling as he turned them over, one after the other.

The first one was simple. Flying clothes, clothes off, a throbbing cock just under the explosion of cloth. Lykus giggled, looked right at the computer, and grabbed his vest.

[i]HotFox: Fuuuuuuck yes.

NaniteUser50: This is going to be a show and a half.[/i]

Lykus giggled as he worked his vest off, tossing it over his shoulders. It was an easy way to show off his body, toned, though not particularly bulky. He was a lean sort of wolf, one that was undoubtedly fit, but not nearly as big and broad as Azorious was. He slowly leaned back, standing up, his bulge running down one pant leg -

[i]HotFox: FUCK!

DeerRunner4: Didn't think he was that big.

HotFox: Get in my mouth!

DeerRunner4: I...would not mind that under my tail.

NaniteUser50: It could be bigger.

NaniteUser50: But it'll be a hell of a fountain later.[/i]

The comments were getting to him, making him harder, hornier, drippier. He rolled his hips from side to side, showing off as he stuck his thumbs past his waistband. Yes, he was a hot wolf, a hot, sexy wolf, one that needed to show off. One that had to get naked. One that had to...had to...

Strip.

Strip.

Strip.

He wiggled his hips from side to side, not even bothering to unbutton his pants. They fell with a clink and a clank, hitting the floor with a thump. His underwear couldn't contain his cock; it pushed forward, dragging the waistband with it, the whole of his boxers dragged along and forming a tent along his tapered dick. He thrust forward, his hands behind his head.

He felt buzzed, almost a little drunk from how horny and excited he was. The chat was still going crazy, but -

Strip.

Strip.

Strip.

Naked. The card said he had to get naked, so he had to get naked. His hands moved of their own accord to his underwear and slowly pulled them down, revealing his shaft inch by inch until the head popped out from under the waistband, swinging up and flinging a string of pre-cum with it.

[i]HotFox: Mmmmph, that's at least sixteen inches, guys.

HotFox: More.

HotFox: Get in my mouth, you bastard! Fuck my face!

NaniteUser50: Guys. There's cards that make him bigger.

HotFox: ...

HotFox: ...

HotFox: I need this deck. Now.[/i]

Lykus stepped out of his underwear, his cock flopping out on the table as he stood beside it. No need to sit down, though he didn't know why. He just...

Flip the cards.

There were still three cards.

Had to flip.

Had to show.

Had to keep playing the game.

Summary: Lykus signs up for ZSS, not quite knowing what the company is about.
