Bad End - Gift
Goft for Sertralion on Fa/Bsky.
I wanted some practice writing villains and psychological horror scenes.
Challenged myself to make something as dark as possible without holding back. This is 100% a story you may regret reading/finishing.
I never usually like the psychopath type of stories/art/guys. Always get too empathetic and just wanna help the victims. “That's somebody's fictional son” kinda vibe… Which is exactly what led me to this dark idea after seeing this art made by Sertralion here:

AN: Usual readers, please turn back and look at those content warnings closely. Highkey, this is a very fucked up story. Not my usual angle/kinks at all, and way darker than any of my usual stuff, but wanted some practice writing villains and psychological horror scenes. Challenged myself to make something as dark as possible without holding back. This is 100% a story you may regret reading/finishing.

Spurred a dark flutter and a darker narrative from me, so hey. Enjoy or despair at your own discretion.
Big thanks to @Sertralion for the unanticipated inspiration and the permission to use Zolo here.

===
The house sits quieter with Sarah away, more so with Michael gone for college. The leather armchair sighs beneath me, a familiar complaint in the boring and dull stillness. Then my phone buzzes, a jarring vibration on the table. The notification from Zolo glows on the screen, a sliver of promised depravity.
"Got a real cute one tonite, his first time at a gay bar 😈 Going live in about 15 min, you know the link 👀 Pre-show fun for a few hours, main show around 3am 💦👅🪦 Might send his stuff to a lucky viewer in chat."
“Finally, some excitement,” I mutter. A shiver of anticipation runs down my spine.
I go to the familiar site, the chat box already a torrent of anonymous usernames and eagerness. My own, "Regular_Bill85," feels like a ghost among them. The feed flickers to life, and there he is. Zolo, a beast of mass and muscle. A smirk carved from cruel amusement crawls over his maw. "Well, well," he rumbles for his secret audience. The deep drawl of his accent is like a buttery bass note that thrums at my chest. "Got myself a special treat for tonight.”
He guides a new figure into view, a hand planted possessively on the back of their neck. The lighting is dim, a single bulb casting long, dancing shadows that obscure and reveal. My breath catches. Fur the color of rust and autumn leaves, a slender frame. A fox. My heart hammers, a frantic, irrational beat.
Surely it's just a coincidence? The fox's head tilts, the light catching the white patch on his throat. A glint of metal. A collar. A tag.
A familiar smile.
My blood runs cold with recognition.
Zolo's thumb hooks under the tag, lifting it for the camera. Engraved in simple script are two words that slam into me with the force of a physical blow: Daddy's Boy.
The world tilts below. The leather chair is gone, the quiet house is gone. There is only the screen, his roaring voice in my ears, and the face of my son, Michael, smiling obliviously at the monster holding him. My hands tremble as they fly to the keyboard.
Regular_Bill85: Stop. Please. That's my son.
A wave of mockery floods the chat.
Bloodlust_88: lol cry more
Gorehound: Aww, did daddy lose his toy?
HungryEyes69: Fuck man… that makes it even hotter!
Zolo chuckles, a low, rumbling sound that makes my fur stand on end. "Such a good boy," he purrs, his free hand tracing the line of Michael's jaw. My son nuzzles into the touch, a soft whimper escaping his maw—a sound I remember from his childhood now twisted into something monstrous. "We're going to have so much fun tonight." The lion winks at the camera. "But only if you earn it."
Desperation, raw and primal, claws its way up my throat. I navigate to the tip menu, my vision blurring as I offer my entire frivolous funds for the month. The money I've been saving for a new set of golf clubs seems so laughably trivial now. I click confirm.
A notification flashes: Regular_Bill85 has tipped $1000!
Message: Don't hurt him. I'll pay more. Please!
Zolo glances at the alert on his phone, a flicker of amusement in his eyes. "Well, well," he rumbles, looking back at a kneeling Michael. "I may have a surprise for you tonight, kiddo." He tosses his phone face-down on the bed, doing the same to Michael after. The mattress groans under their weight. I watch, paralyzed, as the lion looms over him, a shadow of absolute dominance. He forces Michael's legs apart—tail raised and ready—the view unobstructed, unforgiving. My son is laid bare. "You're mine tonight, aren't you, Daddy's boy?" Zolo growls, smacking him across the ass.
I shudder.
Michael's response is a choked yelp, a sound of submission and desire that twists like a knife in my gut. "Yes Sir. All yours—" he gasps mid praise, his claws digging into the sheets.
Zolo doesn't wait, plunging into him with a brutal, possessive thrust that draws a cry from Michael's muzzle—a confused clash of pain and pleasure. The lion sets a punishing rhythm, each slap of fur on fur resonates in the quiet of my living room. My own body betrays me, a sick heat building in my groin. I hate myself for enabling this. I hate that I just watched for three years. I hate the lion. I hate the faceless mob. And most of all, I hate the part of me that's getting turned on by this.
"Tell me who you belong to," Zolo commands, punctuating the words with a particularly vicious thrust.
"You, Daddy!" Michael sobs, his face turning to the side. "I belong to you! I'm yours, Zolo!" He's confessing, laying his soul bare for an audience of gooning ghouls. Each word he cries only adds to this hell made just for me—one broadcast to countless. I can see the vulnerability in his eyes, the misplaced trust.
Zolo laughs, a cruel, malignant sound, pulling out to the tip with torturous intent. With a final, guttural roar and slam of his hips, he empties himself into my son.
He pulls out after a minute; a string of cum still connects them. Zolo grabs a fistful of Michael's hair, forcing him back on his knees. He takes his giant, sticky cock and smears it across my son's muzzle. Michael flinches, but smiles at the soft touch on his cheek… until his glazed eyes go wide with confusion and dawning fear when the camera flashes.
Zolo starts typing after, sending a message to the chat. My son's face gets a close-up, streaming with tears and matted with cum, the "Daddy's Boy" tag glinting—clinking like a subtle dinner bell. A line of text appears beneath the photo.
"He thinks he's going to live 🪦"
“W-why'd you take a picture?” Michael squeaks, standing.
My vision tunnels. Knowing what comes next makes me feel like I'm falling.
Zolo reaches for the collar, unlatching it with a chillingly gentle expression that doesn't quite reflect in his eyes. "Oh, no reason, Kiddo, I just wanted a photo of your cute face."
When the collar falls to the bed, Zolo's large hand swiftly replaces it, choking Michael with ease. But he doesn't look at my son anymore. He looks directly into the camera lens. He looks at me.
Pure and undiluted panic flows through my blood. I thrash at the keyboard again, draining every digital account I have. The notifications on the screen are a constant barrage, a storm of my life savings. The other viewers are silent for a moment, stunned by the sheer volume and intensity of my donations.
Regular_Bill85 has tipped $10,000!
Message: Please stop!
Regular_Bill85 has tipped $50,000!
Message: I'll do anything.
Regular_Bill85 has tipped $100,000!
Message: Give me time! I'll mortgage my house, I'll send you $200,000 more by tomorrow morning, just PLEASE LET HIM GO!!
Then, a single notification eclipses my own. A new username, one I've never seen before, glows in sickening gold.
FinalCourse has tipped $300,000!
Message: End it. Eat him whole.
Zolo's eyes widen with genuine shock. He looks from the screen to Michael, who struggles weakly beneath his unyielding suffocation. "Well, now," Zolo says, his voice thick with satisfaction. "Looks like we have a real high roller in the house tonight."
He turns to Michael, the lion's grin widening, revealing a set of fangs that look unnervingly sharp. "You know, boy," he practically sings to my son. "Your real daddy's been watching our livestream this whole time."
Michael freezes. His head whips around until his sights settle on the flashing red dot of the camera. His amber eyes widen as the soul-crushing truth dawns on him. "Dad...?" he rasps under the crushing grip on his windpipe, his voice a fractured mix of horror, hope, and terror wrapped in a single word. "Dad, I didn't know... I'm sorry, I—"
Zolo’s smirk deepens when he leans over Michael, a cruel twist of his maw that holds no warmth, only the chill of a predator savoring the final moments of the hunt. "He's been one of my most loyal patrons for years." the lion continues, his voice a low, mesmerizing purr thicker than molasses. "A real connoisseur. He loves this part. He loves watching me eat!"
The last word hangs in the air like the death sentence it is. Michael's scream is one of pure terror, a desperate, high-pitched plea that cuts through the speakers and buries itself in my memory forever. "DAD! DAD, HELP ME! PLEASE, DAD, DON'T LET HIM DO—!"
The plea is choked off as Zolo's massive hand clamps over my son's muzzle, silencing him with effortless ease. The lion's other hand moves to the back of Michael's neck, a gesture of absolute control as he lines himself up.
I'm frozen, a spectator to my own helplessness. My arousal burns with shame. My fingers are still on the keyboard, poised to type another desperate plea, but it's too late.
Zolo's jaws open, an impossible cavern of pink muscle and gleaming white teeth. I've seen this countless times, a climax I've paid to witness, but it's different now. It's an ending. There's a brief, futile struggle—a flurry of rust-colored limbs thrashing against the bulk…
Then a muffled cry of defeat as, with a sickening, wet squelch, Zolo's mouth closes over Michael's head.
Michael's hands flail about for a moment before finding purchase on Zolo's powerful chest, trying to hold on… But with a quick lurch forward from the lion, those desperate hands lose all grip as Michael's shoulders slip down that gullet next.
The world goes silent aside from my son's muffled, frantic screaming from within the lion's throat. It's a sound that will echo in my nightmares for the rest of my life. My fingers linger on the keyboard. Useless; pathetic.
I watch, hypnotized by the horror, as Zolo tilts his head back, his throat working Michael down. A visible bulge travels his thick neck beneath the mane—a second, larger bulge distending his torso, settling with a heavy finality. The lion's eyes are half-lidded, a look of profound and carnal satisfaction over his face as he works his jaw over Michael's knees, savoring the flavor with a slathering of his tongue.
A final convulsive swallow around squirming paws, and Michael disappears forever.
Zolo lets out a deep, content sigh and a steady, low belch. He pats the distinct, rounded swell of his stomach. "Mmm," he purrs, running his tongue over his chops. "Delicious. The best kind of meal... the one with a secret ingredient." He chuckles, looking directly at the camera, at me. "Made with Daddy's love."
A sudden movement churns within his gut. A faint bump presses against the taut skin of his belly. Then another. Muffled sounds are barely audible through the layers of fur and flesh. A choked sob. A desperate plea for help. My son's still alive in there, calling for me.
My heart finds new ways to break.
Zolo seems to notice the movement. A cruel smirk twists his maw. He approaches the camera, leaning in close until his swollen stomach fills the screen. He presses down gently with one paw.
The shape of a small hand presses back from the inside, a silent, desperate plea against the dark, suffocating prison. Five fingers, splayed wide in a gesture of terror that is both unmistakable and utterly heartbreaking. "Looks like someone wants to wave for the camera," Zolo rumbles. He traces the outline of the trapped hand with a claw, a gesture of mock tenderness that makes my stomach heave. "Go on, Daddy. Wave goodbye to our son."
The tips start rolling in by the thousands.
I open my mouth, but no sound comes out. I’m but a spectator to my own damnation. The shame is a physical weight, crushing me, pinning me to my chair. I can't save him. I can't even speak to him. All I can do is watch as the monster who holds him captive plays with him one last time to a roar of applause.
"Thank you for your generous donations, Regular_Bill85," Zolo says, his voice dripping with sarcasm as he pats his stomach. "You really helped make this a special night. And don't worry about that college fund you just emptied. He won't need it anymore." He pauses, a thoughtful look on his face. "In fact, as thanks for being such a generous donor... I'll have his things sent to you. A little keepsake from tonight's truly memorable dinner—A reminder of what a good father you've been."
My tears blur the screen into a swirl of meaningless colors. I'm shaking, a violent, uncontrollable tremor that racks my entire body. The leather of the chair is cold and damp beneath my hands. I’m alone. I’m ruined.
"Anything else?" Zolo asks, looking back at the camera… At me. "No? Good." He gives his stomach one final, decisive smack. "Then it's been a pleasure doing business with you. See everyone next time.”
The screen goes black. The sudden silence is a staggering blow. The only sound is my ragged breath and the frantic thumping of my heart. I stare at the blank screen, at my own reflection. The chat is gone. Zolo is gone. Michael is gone. And I’m left with nothing but the memory of my son's last moments, and the sick, undeniable heat pooling in my groin. I can feel it. That traitorous arousal, a phantom limb I can't control. It's a fire in my belly, a burn that defies all logic, all decency. I’m disgusted with myself… but I bring my hand to my cock all the same.
My phone buzzes again. I flinch, expecting another call from Sarah, but it's not her. It's a private invitation from Zolo to a new chat. I accept with a sliver of hope, my heart drumming against my ribs.
The camera aims down at his own stomach, the collar and tag poised photogenically over the squirming mass. He's rubbing his meal in slow, circular motions. The audio is a low, rumbling purr, punctuated by the muffled sounds of my son's cries. "Such a good boy," Zolo's coos. "So warm. So full of life." He chuckles, a dark, menacing sound. "Don't worry. It'll all be over soon." He's kneads the taut flesh with an affectionate paw, a slow, possessive motion. The movement is hypnotic, a parody of care. "Still kicking in there?" he rumbles. "Feisty one."
The camera veers up just enough to show me the smirk on his muzzle before the video continues. A muffled sound escapes the lion's gut—a strangled sob, a weak, choking plea that is swallowed by the layers of muscle and fur. "Daddy..."
Zolo taunts, "He's a real fighter, I'll give him that, but you know how these things go. It's getting a little... cramped."
He presses down harder on his stomach, The shape of a small, curled form is briefly visible beneath the fur. A faint thump, a weak protest from within. "Oh, there it is," Zolo purrs, tracing the outline with a single claw. "That's it. Fight it if you must. We don't want the fun to end too soon, do we?"
I'm mesmerized. I can't look away. The shame is still there, a hot, bitter bile in my throat, but it's being overshadowed by a strange, detached fascination. This is the aftermath; the snuffing; the digestion… The final, unspoken act of the ritual. I've never seen this part. This is for the real connoisseurs, the ones who pay the highest price.
I guess I blatantly qualify.
"He's still squirming." Zolo ensures I remain focused.
Another thump comes from within the lion, weaker this time. A final, desperate flicker of life. Then, silence.
"Ah," Zolo sighs, a soft, almost reverent sound. "There it is." He presses his hand to his quieter stomach, a hum of satisfaction. "He's gone."
The words hit me like a physical blow. Gone. My son is gone. The finality of it, the absolute, irrevocable end, is a crushing weight. I'm defeated. Truly, utterly beaten.
Zolo sits up, the camera shaking with the movement. He gives his stomach a final, triumphant pat before switching the camera around. "And now," he says, a slow, predatory smile spreading across his face, "Got an unused college fund to go spend.”
He stands, the camera pointing at the floor, capturing a glimpse of the soiled sheets, the discarded collar, the lingering evidence of the night's depravity…
And lastly, the cock my son died to get fucked by.
The screen goes black when the private feed ends. I'm cast into silence. The empty realization settles on me. The crushing, all-consuming weight of my grief and my guilt makes my bones feel heavy… Yet still, I cannot ignore that I’m still aroused. I recall the image. My son's final, muffled sobs resound in my ears. My need intensifies, a wave of heat that washes over me, leaving me breathless and drenched in sweat. I hate myself. I hate myself with a passion that borders on self-destruction… But I can't stop. I can't. I'm too useless to stop anything tonight.
I can only pump my cock faster for the monster that broke my world.
When I cum, the shameful mess is a sticky, fleeting warmth on my fur—a final, pathetic testament to my depravity.
I immediately throw the phone. It hits the far wall with a sickening crack, the screen shattering into a web of fractured light. The violence is brief, a flash of fizzling rage that does nothing to quell the hurt within me. I'm left with the silence and the growing, gnawing emptiness in my gut. My son is gone. My retirement is gone. The emergency fund is gone. I’m bankrupt in every way that matters. All that's left is this house, this chair, and the corrosive guilt in knowing that I'll never be able to tell Sarah the truth about any of it.
My entire world has been consumed.
And I watched.
I paid him to watch.
