**Chapter 1: The Paediatrician**

The loud&nbsp;ringing sound that emanated from the stereo speakers&nbsp;of a space grey&nbsp;iPhone 7 plus had permeated throughout the&nbsp;entire&nbsp;room, arousing&nbsp;the sleeping white wolf from his&nbsp;peaceful&nbsp;slumber as his right&nbsp;hand-paw slowly&nbsp;went towards the annoying phone and turned the alarm off. After a few minutes of sleeping, the wolf&nbsp;then decided to wake up as he&nbsp;slowly opened his eyes, revealing two glowing cerulean blue irises with black dilated&nbsp;pupils, which then immediately shrank into vertical cat-like slits due to&nbsp;the&nbsp;bright&nbsp;morning&nbsp;sunlight that came from the overly&nbsp;large&nbsp;windows of his&nbsp;newly built&nbsp;modern looking mansion.

"Greetings, world..." The wolf said to himself&nbsp;in a groggy tone as he shifted into a sitting position on his bed. He then slowly&nbsp;removed the warm blanket that covered his completely&nbsp;nude physique, revealing an average looking furred&nbsp;body that is&nbsp;neither muscular and fit, nor is he&nbsp;obese&nbsp;and unhealthy that was common for a man of his age. Meanwhile, his canine&nbsp;sheath and the&nbsp;other reproductive areas that defined him as a man&nbsp;were&nbsp;a bit&nbsp;smaller than average for a normal male&nbsp;wolf of his rank and status, taking&nbsp;the phrase 'Compensating for something'&nbsp;quite&nbsp;literally due to his high Beta rank as a wolf,&nbsp;and being filthy rich due to his profession as the first successful&nbsp;predator paediatrician&nbsp;with a Ph. D&nbsp;in the entire anthropomorphic world.

He then got off his bed, and then fixed it in a meticulous manner that was befitting of&nbsp;a post-operative bed in the hospital, replacing all bedsheets and pillowcases with new ones as he had done every single day due to his fear of microbes that may cause his demise. Afterwards, he&nbsp;grabbed the&nbsp;iPhone from the bedside cabinet and then&nbsp;dialed his favorite Omega&nbsp;wolf as he went towards the&nbsp;bathroom to take a bath.

"Hello, Lord&nbsp;Beta. How may I serve you?" An overly tired, yet&nbsp;friendly male&nbsp;voice was heard by the white wolf,&nbsp;making him smile as he recalled his&nbsp;last rutting session with the gray&nbsp;wolf&nbsp;three weeks ago. It was a very pleasurable night for the both of them, but this&nbsp;resulted to&nbsp;a very sore and&nbsp;painful morning&nbsp;for the high ranking S. Aureus.

"Greetings, Luke." S. Aureus replied as he placed the iPhone on a nearby ceramic&nbsp;shelf.&nbsp;"How are you today? It seems that you are currently busy right now&nbsp;as evidenced by&nbsp;the hushed&nbsp;background&nbsp;noises that are&nbsp;emanating from my phone."&nbsp;

"Yes, Lord Beta. I am currently&nbsp;sending Lord&nbsp;Alpha's teenage&nbsp;pups to Oxford, thereby resulting in my late&nbsp;arrival to your abode if you wanted me to drive&nbsp;you to your workplace." The white wolf immediately&nbsp;frowned upon hearing those words, his mind&nbsp;inwardly cursing his alpha for&nbsp;stealing his favorite omega.&nbsp;

"Very well." S. Aureus replied in a husky tone&nbsp;as he turned on the shower. A murr then escaped&nbsp;from his muzzle&nbsp;as the overly hot water came in contact with his thick white&nbsp;fur, as well as&nbsp;the pink skin underneath. "It seems that I must summon our trusty young, lithe, and&nbsp;delectable Delta&nbsp;wolf as your temporary replacement, then. He may have&nbsp;considered himself as&nbsp;straight as a newly forged iron&nbsp;rod, but even an iron&nbsp;rod can be bent with the right... circumstances."

"Lord Beta,&nbsp;please control yourself! The&nbsp;innocent&nbsp;pups can hear your depraved words&nbsp;inside the car." The worried voice of his favorite omega made the white wolf chuckle in amusement. "Anyway, I would like to remind you that&nbsp;Lord Delta is on a business trip to the United States with Lord Gamma, which means that he won't be available to get you to your workplace."

"Tch, Fine. It seems that I need to summon my&nbsp;underaged canid, then."&nbsp;The white wolf replied dryly&nbsp;as he lathered himself with antibacterial soap, making sure that the&nbsp;pink skin underneath his fur, his sensitive ears,&nbsp;and the inside of his sheath would&nbsp;get the necessary cleansing. "By the way, those pups are no longer innocent, Luke... they are currently at the genital phase based on Sigmund Freud's psychosexual theory. Heck, they may had already&nbsp;rutted with those snobbish&nbsp;red&nbsp;furred queer&nbsp;bitches in that overrated&nbsp;university."

Teenage laughter echoed within the&nbsp;bathroom, while&nbsp;S. Aureus smirked&nbsp;in amusement as he imagined his favorite Omega wolf&nbsp;blushing heavily&nbsp;at the driver's&nbsp;seat. As&nbsp;the laughter continued, the white wolf&nbsp;then rinsed the soap from his body with water, and then applied the shampoo and its respective conditioner&nbsp;for his fur.&nbsp;

Eventually, the laughter died down, as&nbsp;Luke&nbsp;regained his compsure before replying&nbsp;back to his Beta.&nbsp;"Lord Beta, please stop... you're embarrassing&nbsp;me."&nbsp;

"Oh, fine. You may now be&nbsp;dismissed, Luke." &nbsp;S. Aureus said in his gentle yet&nbsp;authoritative Beta&nbsp;tone that he only used for his favorite Omega wolf. "However, you must arrive at the hospital entrance at exactly twelve o' clock Ante&nbsp;Meridiem, for I&nbsp;will be waiting for your arrival&nbsp;there to drive me back home."

"Uh, Lord Beta, what's an Ante Meridiem?"&nbsp;The white wolf who was rinsing the shampoo&nbsp;from his fur&nbsp;raised an eyebrow at the idiotic question, before he&nbsp;facepawed&nbsp;himself in realization as to who he was having a conversation with.

"Oh...&nbsp;I apologize for the inconvenience, Luke.&nbsp;Anyway,&nbsp;the Ante Meridien is what you call the A.M.&nbsp;in layman's terms." S. Aureus replied back as he shook himself dry, and then removed&nbsp;the remaining moisture from his fur using a clean white cotton towel. He then wrapped the&nbsp;towel across his waist, and then took his moist iPhone from the ceramic shelf as he went towards the bathroom sink&nbsp;to brush his teeth.

"Ohhhh.... alright. Thank you&nbsp;for the wonderful information, Lord Beta. I'll meet&nbsp;you soon&nbsp;at midnight." The friendly, and exuberant&nbsp;voice of Luke made the white wolf smile in amusement, his&nbsp;ears relishing the voice of his favorite Omega.

"Very well, Luke." S. Aureus replied back as he placed his iPhone on top of the marble bathroom counter, completely ignoring the background&nbsp;noises&nbsp;that emanated from the speakers for a few seconds before&nbsp;the call ended.

The rest of the wolf's daily routine were&nbsp;done in a quick, yet systematic manner that was the norm for almost all professional Furs&nbsp;in the United Kingdom. Finally, the wolf was finished, now ready and prepared for his&nbsp;hospital duties&nbsp;as he stood in front of his favorite&nbsp;antique glossy black&nbsp;Aston Martin DB5, and a newly delivered space&nbsp;grey Aston Martin&nbsp;DB9.&nbsp;

"Hn, you'll be driving... the DB9&nbsp;for this day, Sparky."&nbsp;S. Aureus said in a fatherly tone&nbsp;as he gave the vehicle's crystal key fob to&nbsp;the fully&nbsp;naked, tall, skinny, nineteen&nbsp;year old, orange furred&nbsp;maned&nbsp;wolf who smiled in glee&nbsp;as he took the item from the white wolf's outstretched hand-paw.

"Wow, thanks a lot,&nbsp;Lord&nbsp;Beta&nbsp;Sir. I'll promise that she'll&nbsp;stay&nbsp;as good as new until the end of time."&nbsp;Sparky replied as he pressed a&nbsp;black button on&nbsp;the car's&nbsp;crystal key fob,&nbsp;which&nbsp;unlocked&nbsp;the doors automatically.&nbsp;

"Very well, Sparky... I hope that you will hold on to your promise." S. Aureus said with a smile on his muzzle, as the maned&nbsp;wolf grinned at him in response&nbsp;before walking briskly&nbsp;towards the right side of the car. He&nbsp;then opened the car's&nbsp;door,&nbsp;and then gestured for&nbsp;the Beta Wolf to enter the vehicle.&nbsp;

"Oh my... well,&nbsp;thank you, Sparky." S. Aureus said in a greatly pleased tone as he went inside the vehicle, making the taller male smile upon hearing his adoptive parent's&nbsp;words. "I am so&nbsp;glad that chivalry is not yet&nbsp;dead in this current era."&nbsp;

"Nah, don't mention it, Lord Beta Sir. I'm just giving&nbsp;the proper respect to my adoptive parent." Sparky&nbsp;replied in his usual playful&nbsp;manner&nbsp;as he closed the door in a&nbsp;gentle manner. He then went&nbsp;towards the driver's&nbsp;side of the new expensive, British made&nbsp;grand tourer with an excited and&nbsp;proud&nbsp;smile on his muzzle, as this is his&nbsp;first time to handle a car that wields&nbsp;a&nbsp;powerful V12&nbsp;engine underneath its bonnet.

'Hehe, those snobbish teen&nbsp;Furs&nbsp;at the university&nbsp;will&nbsp;be green with envy&nbsp;once they see this wild&nbsp;South&nbsp;American&nbsp;canid mount&nbsp;this bad girl.' These were some of the countless thoughts in Sparky's&nbsp;mind as he slowly&nbsp;entered the vehicle with a smirk on his muzzle.&nbsp;Once he was&nbsp;seated, he&nbsp;then&nbsp;closed the door,&nbsp;making sure to lock it to prevent any accidents during the trip. He also adjusted the comfortable&nbsp;seat in order for it&nbsp;to accommodate his tall&nbsp;height and slightly&nbsp;longer than average&nbsp;limbs.&nbsp;

Afterwards, the maned wolf then placed&nbsp;his left&nbsp;furry foot-paw in the brake pedal, pressed gently,&nbsp;and then&nbsp;inserted the crystal key fob in an elegant metal slot located&nbsp;at the center of the&nbsp;dashboard. Immediately, the expensive&nbsp;car roared to life, making both Furs&nbsp;smile in delight&nbsp;as their sensitive ears appreciated the legendary sound of a newly built 6.0L V12 engine.

"So,&nbsp;where are we going, Lord Beta Sir?" Sparky asked, as the white wolf who was leaning&nbsp;back against the expensive black leather seat turned towards his direction.&nbsp;"You just told me to prepare the two cars and then wait for your arrival."&nbsp;

"Oh... well, I apologize for the inconvenience, Sparky. It seems that the signs of old age&nbsp;has began to manifest within&nbsp;my mind." S. Aureus said&nbsp;in an embarrassed tone, as the maned wolf chuckled in response.&nbsp;"Anyway, I want you to send me to my workplace&nbsp;as fast&nbsp;as possible, since it is located at exactly thirty&nbsp;kilometres away&nbsp;from my&nbsp;house, and I had only&nbsp;thirty minutes left before I was considered late by the higher-ups in the hospital."&nbsp;

"Ahh, I see..." Sparky replied in a giddy tone, as a feral grin slowly began to form on his muzzle which made the white wolf gulp in fear.&nbsp;"Well, there's no need to worry, Lord Beta Sir. After all, I gained&nbsp;the Sigma rank in this pack&nbsp;for a reason."

Before S. Aureus&nbsp;could say another word, Sparky immediately&nbsp;pushed the drive button and then&nbsp;floored the accelerator pedal with his right foot-paw.&nbsp;Instantly, like the awakening of a titanic&nbsp;beast,&nbsp;the&nbsp;powerful V12 engine suddenly&nbsp;roared with power, as the British made&nbsp;grand tourer&nbsp;quickly accelerated&nbsp;from the already&nbsp;opened&nbsp;garage, tearing through the extensive cobblestone&nbsp;driveway like a knife through butter, before slowing down a bit as it approached&nbsp;the&nbsp;straight, well maintained paved asphalt&nbsp;road&nbsp;that led towards&nbsp;the lovely city of London.

* * *

"Good morning, nurses." S. Aureus said towards&nbsp;the four&nbsp;busy&nbsp;ewes at the nurse's station, his deep baritone voice startling the women as they turned towards the wolf's&nbsp;direction.&nbsp;"How are our patients doing today... I just&nbsp;heard from the other docs that the febrile&nbsp;patient from room 3095B has just been&nbsp;discharged."

"Oh, good morning, Staph Aureus." One of the three white&nbsp;ewes replied with a smile, making the wolf frown in response due to his less than desirable nickname that reminded him of a certain&nbsp;skin bacterium. "Almost all&nbsp;of our patients are currently stable&nbsp;before your arrival, and course, you are correct about the discharged&nbsp;febrile patient at room 3095B. However,&nbsp;the newly admitted patient at room 3085 had activity intolerance related to imbalance&nbsp;of oxygen supply, as well as&nbsp;ineffective tissue perfusion as evidenced by pallor and diminished peripheral&nbsp;pulses."

"Mmhm, thank you for your input, Mrs. Rowaldo. So... based&nbsp;on the given information,&nbsp;I'll&nbsp;bet a hundred pounds&nbsp;that our patient has Thalassemia." S. Aureus mused to himself as the other ewes rolled their horizontally slit&nbsp;eyes upon hearing his words. "I don't know if it is alpha, beta, or minor Thalassemia, but I am sure that my diagnosis will be correct again."

"That's what we also think, Staph. But even with the&nbsp;clinical eye and that predator brain of yours, you can't diagnose a patient without checking her&nbsp;chart first." The ewe at his right said as she handled the wolf the metallic clipboard that held a thin stack of papers. "By the way, you're the one assigned to her, so I would&nbsp;suggest that..."

"Heh, you're right, Mrs. Benito.&nbsp;It seems that my fame as the first predator&nbsp;paediatrician&nbsp;has gotten way&nbsp;over my head." S. Aureus said in a sheepish tone as he opened the patient's medical chart. He then&nbsp;skimmed the files as he used his photographic memory that helped him in getting his Ph. D.&nbsp;

"Hmph, yes indeed, you&nbsp;spoiled pup."&nbsp;An old black wooled&nbsp;ewe replied back in a grumpy tone as she&nbsp;wrote&nbsp;her nurses notes on the chart in an F-DAR layout. "You're just like&nbsp;all those&nbsp;other&nbsp;doctors when you&nbsp;had gotten famous... always arrogant and thinking&nbsp;they're much better than us nurses."

"Oh,&nbsp;come on, Mrs.&nbsp;Famadico. Don't be that nurse who generalizes all doctors&nbsp;based on a few &nbsp;observations." S. Aureus replied in a playful tone as he swiftly&nbsp;wrote his medical&nbsp;notes on the physician's order sheet before&nbsp;giving&nbsp;it back to a smiling&nbsp;Mrs. Benito.

"Bah, a few observations my ass... in my thirty eight years of experience in this hospital, I haven't seen a nice&nbsp;doctor in my entire life&nbsp;except for you&nbsp;when you're still an inexperienced intern&nbsp;pup&nbsp;in our eyes." Mrs.&nbsp;Famadico said in her grandmotherly tone as she closed the medical chart.&nbsp;"But... even the&nbsp;sudden appearance of a predator paediatrician in the paedia ward hasn't changed my so called generalized opinions about the&nbsp;doctors, pup."

"Nah, don't listen to the old bat, wolfie. She just hated&nbsp;all docs due to her inability to become one."&nbsp;An equally&nbsp;old&nbsp;white wooled ewe said with a sly smirk&nbsp;while Mrs. Famadico&nbsp;glared daggers at her direction. "Anyway, you should go&nbsp;check those charts now. Some of the patients' most recent vital signs and lab results are still above&nbsp;or below&nbsp;the normal&nbsp;range for a Fur of their age, while the others who are no longer showing any signs and symptoms of illness are&nbsp;completely&nbsp;ready for discharge."

"Fine, fine..." S. Aureus replied back as he glanced at the tall&nbsp;white&nbsp;wooden bookshelf that was&nbsp;filled to the brim with labeled&nbsp;metal clipboards&nbsp;instead of books.&nbsp;"I'll just have a brief&nbsp;visit with&nbsp;the computer first, since yesterday&nbsp;was a really unexpected storm&nbsp;that would've set a new record for the most toxic hospital duty&nbsp;in history."

"I agree with you on this one, wolfie. Yesterday&nbsp;really&nbsp;takes the cake." Ms. Buenaflor said with a smile on her white&nbsp;colored muzzle as she opened another medical chart and wrote on the Nurse's notes. "However,&nbsp;don't expect that today's duty will be less toxic&nbsp;than yesterday's, as the patients who had caused&nbsp;the storm&nbsp;are still inside their rooms."&nbsp;

"Very well, Mrs. Buenaflor... although I would still check the computer to confirm my thoughts." The white&nbsp;wolf said&nbsp;in response&nbsp;as&nbsp;he sat&nbsp;in front&nbsp;the computer and moved the mouse gently across the black rubber pad,&nbsp;awakening the computer&nbsp;from its sleep state as it began to display the necessary information on the old yellowish&nbsp;CRT monitor.

"Oh my..." S. Aureus muttered to himself with a frown upon seeing that eighty seven&nbsp;of the one hundred&nbsp;rooms&nbsp;in&nbsp;the paediatric&nbsp;section&nbsp;are&nbsp;occupied by the patients themselves and their accompanying family members. "It seems that you are right, Mrs. Buenaflor... today's&nbsp;duty&nbsp;will be a&nbsp;very, very&nbsp;toxic one."

* * *

And it is very&nbsp;toxic,&nbsp;indeed. The white&nbsp;wolf had to go through his fourty&nbsp;five patients that were assigned to his care, his predator&nbsp;mind working at its full capacity as he plowed through hundreds of papers that composed the medical charts of his patients - the physician's order sheet, the&nbsp;physical assessments that involves visiting&nbsp;all of his patients, and so much more. This was worsened by the fact that he is only a mortal&nbsp;Fur despite his elevated status, as he made&nbsp;some mistakes&nbsp;in a few&nbsp;of&nbsp;the patients' medical records that were, thankfully, noticed by the equally tired nurses who worked as a team.&nbsp;

It also didn't help that a minority&nbsp;of the newly admitted&nbsp;prey&nbsp;patients'&nbsp;family members and relatives&nbsp;were still completely&nbsp;distrustful towards the attending wolf paediatrician, as they kept&nbsp;asking him&nbsp;absurd and&nbsp;illogical&nbsp;questions that annoyed him to no end.&nbsp;The white&nbsp;wolf didn't blame them though, as he knew that&nbsp;centuries of living under the barbaric&nbsp;predator-prey relationship would make even the most open-minded prey&nbsp;Fur become fearful of all nearby carnivores&nbsp;who can easily kill and eat him without a second thought.

Fortunately, many of the&nbsp;patients in his care are now considered as&nbsp;clinically&nbsp;healthy and ready to go, as he simply&nbsp;wrote in his physician order sheet that the patient is able to go home the next day, a list of&nbsp;the medications that the patient must take&nbsp;at home,&nbsp;and that the patient&nbsp;has&nbsp;a follow up&nbsp;checkup with him at a&nbsp;selected day.&nbsp;

It also helped that the rest of his patients&nbsp;and their accompanying family members&nbsp;were more receptive to his care, as they accepted the white wolf just like any other hospital&nbsp;doctor... although the sharp canine teeth and black claws&nbsp;may have&nbsp;scared&nbsp;most toddler patients.&nbsp;

Eventually, at eleven fifty-six&nbsp;post meridiem,&nbsp;the overly&nbsp;tired&nbsp;wolf had&nbsp;completely finished his tasks for today, as he gently&nbsp;closed his newly bought&nbsp;space gray, fifteen inch&nbsp;Macbook pro and placed it inside his pitch black expensive briefcase. He then stood up and left the on-call&nbsp;room, the night shift staff&nbsp;nurses greeting him goodbye as he left the pediatric area of the hospital.&nbsp;

As S. Aureus calmly&nbsp;walked down the stairs that led to the ground floor of the hospital, his&nbsp;iPhone suddenly vibrated in his pocket. He&nbsp;then fished it from his pocket, smiling upon seeing the name of the caller - his favorite Omega wolf.&nbsp;Immediately, he gently&nbsp;pressed&nbsp;the green call button on his screen and swiped it towards the right with his furred&nbsp;thumb, meaning that he had&nbsp;accepted the call.

"Greetings, Luke." S. Aureus said in a friendly tone&nbsp;as he placed the phone close to his sensitive pointed&nbsp;ears. "I presume that you had arrived at the hospital, then."

"Yes, Lord Beta." The grey wolf replied. "I am currently situated at&nbsp;the physician's parking lot, waiting for your further instructions as to where am I supposed to meet you."

"Oh, I see..." S. Aureus said as he approached the ancient looking&nbsp;lobby&nbsp;of the prestigious hospital, admiring&nbsp;the expensive crystal&nbsp;chandeliers that were situated on the magnificent, mural filled ceiling&nbsp;as they filled&nbsp;the entire chamber&nbsp;with a vibrant golden-white colour. "Very well, I will be waiting for your arrival&nbsp;at the&nbsp;main&nbsp;entrance, Luke."

"Alright, Lord Beta... I'll be arriving there shortly." Luke replied back before ending the call, leaving the white wolf who returned&nbsp;his iPhone back in his pocket before&nbsp;walking&nbsp;towards the closed glass&nbsp;doors of the main entrance.&nbsp;

He then greeted the Doberman&nbsp;Pinscher&nbsp;who is guarding&nbsp;the exit door, the black dog returning the favour as he opened the glass door with a smile on his muzzle. Once outside, S. Aureus&nbsp;sighed in relief upon seeing a space grey Aston Martin DB9, and&nbsp;a fully naked&nbsp;grey furred&nbsp;wolf&nbsp;who&nbsp;is&nbsp;standing casually&nbsp;at the right side of the expensive&nbsp;vehicle.&nbsp;

"Good evening, Lord Beta." Luke said with a friendly&nbsp;smile on his muzzle&nbsp;as he took the white&nbsp;wolf's expensive briefcase.&nbsp;"How's&nbsp;work&nbsp;today?&nbsp;You looked like you've gone through hell and back."

"Oh, it&nbsp;is literally&nbsp;hell on&nbsp;earth, Luke." S. Aureus replied in an overly tired tone, as the grey wolf chuckled in response. "I had fourty five patients who&nbsp;are assigned to my care, not including those who are newly admitted in the hospital. This means that I had to check on hundreds of papers in order for me to make the proper orders&nbsp;on the physician's order sheet."

"Wow, hehe... and I thought&nbsp;I had the worst day ever in the entire pack." Luke said, a sheepish smile on his muzzle as the white&nbsp;wolf simply smiled weakly in response.

"Hey,&nbsp;everyone has their good and bad days, Luke." S. Aureus said, before a yawn escaped his muzzle which revealed a long&nbsp;pink canine&nbsp;tongue and sharp carnivore teeth. "Anyway, lets go home now, shall we? My mind and&nbsp;body really needs its well deserved rest."&nbsp;

"Yes, Lord Beta."&nbsp;Luke said in complete agreement as he opened the door, and then gestured for the Beta Wolf to enter the vehicle.

"Oh my, it seems that my dear Sparky has been giving you&nbsp;some lessons in impressing your superior." S. Aureus said in an amused tone as he went inside the vehicle. "Anyway, thank you, Luke. Your act of&nbsp;kindness to this tired wolf will be very much appreciated."&nbsp;

"It is my pleasure, Lord Beta... although Sparky&nbsp;deserves the&nbsp;praise even more than I." Luke said with a friendly&nbsp;smile as he closed the door, leaving the white wolf&nbsp;who sighed in relief as he&nbsp;leaned back against the comfortable leather seat.&nbsp;

* * *

The return&nbsp;trip to&nbsp;the white wolf's modern mansion could be only described as very,&nbsp;very fast, as&nbsp;the expensive grand tourer tore through the deserted streets of London at a blistering one hundred kilometers per hour.&nbsp;This&nbsp;kept both wolves completely awake, as the adrenaline that was released from their adrenal medulla&nbsp;have&nbsp;stimulated&nbsp;their canine brains.&nbsp;

Eventually,&nbsp;much to the&nbsp;relief of S. Aureus, Luke gently pressed on the brake pedal&nbsp;with his foot-paw&nbsp;as they&nbsp;approached&nbsp;the&nbsp;extensive cobblestone driveway that led towards the wolf's looming modern mansion. He&nbsp;then&nbsp;slowly turned&nbsp;the pitch black&nbsp;steering wheel&nbsp;in a clockwise manner,&nbsp;the car taking&nbsp;a right turn towards the pitch black&nbsp;driveway.

Once the vehicle&nbsp;is&nbsp;parked inside its personal&nbsp;garage, the two wolves then walked towards the main entrance&nbsp;of&nbsp;the modern looking&nbsp;mansion. For Luke, the newly built&nbsp;white mansion reminded him of Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater, with&nbsp;its overly large windows that allowed large amounts of&nbsp;light to pass through, and&nbsp;the modernistic design that is very&nbsp;pleasing to the eyes.

"My dear Luke..."&nbsp;The grey wolf was interrupted from his reverie&nbsp;as he turned his head towards the white wolf beside him. "Since it is already one o' clock ante meridiem, do&nbsp;you want to stay&nbsp;here for the night?&nbsp;I had a well maintained&nbsp;guest room with a comfortable bed where you can sleep in peace.&nbsp;However, if you like some companionship, you can also&nbsp;sleep beside me just like three weeks ago."

"Oh... well, thanks for the generous&nbsp;offer, Lord Beta. But I-"&nbsp;

"I insist for you to stay here, Omega." The white wolf interrupted in a deep, formal&nbsp;tone,&nbsp;his ears erect and pointing forward while&nbsp;a smirk&nbsp;formed&nbsp;on his muzzle,&nbsp;as the grey wolf's eyes widened in shock and disbelief, his ears flattened against his head in submission.&nbsp;"That is an absolute Beta's order, meaning that&nbsp;disobedience or rejection&nbsp;will be justifiable by any method of&nbsp;punishment that is chosen by the accuser."

"What?&nbsp;You can't just pull rank on me!" Luke replied angrily, his hackles raising in slight&nbsp;aggression as&nbsp;S. Aureus merely&nbsp;sighed in response. After all, he is only concerned for the health of&nbsp;his favourite Omega, and he will do everything in his power to prevent any possible deaths in the pack&nbsp;

"Well, as the only qualified doctor&nbsp;in the pack, it is my duty to maintain the health and wellness&nbsp;of all&nbsp;its&nbsp;members." S. Aureus said in a matter of fact tone, his dominant expression reverting back to its normal relaxed state.&nbsp;"Besides, you really need a good night's sleep, and&nbsp;I just&nbsp;can't imagine what will possibly&nbsp;happen&nbsp;when a very drowsy&nbsp;Fur&nbsp;is allowed to&nbsp;drive."

"Fine, fine. I'll accept your goddamned order, Lord Beta." Luke said, making the white&nbsp;wolf smile happily&nbsp;in response as they entered the mansion.&nbsp;"But, since you brought up that strange&nbsp;request about the both of us sleeping on your bed like some&nbsp;lovers in a romantic movie, then I'd really&nbsp;love&nbsp;to accept that one for sure."

"Oh really?" S. Aureus asked as he locked the doors, a smirk forming on his muzzle when&nbsp;the grey wolf nodded immediately. "Hah, you little&nbsp;queer...&nbsp;You really do&nbsp;love my delectable old&nbsp;body, don't&nbsp;you?"

"Heh, at least I'm the queer who&nbsp;retained my manliness,&nbsp;unlike you&nbsp;who took&nbsp;my knot&nbsp;like a bitch in heat three weeks ago." Luke replied in a playful tone as the two wolves walked through the barely lit&nbsp;hallways that led&nbsp;towards the&nbsp;master bedroom.

"Touché, my dear Luke." S. Aureus said, a blush forming beneath his white fur as the grey wolf chuckled in response. "Touché."

Soon,&nbsp;the two wolves had reached&nbsp;the expensive,&nbsp;overly&nbsp;large, modern looking bed&nbsp;room. It was filled with expensive&nbsp;furniture that symbolizes the modern era, along with the advanced,&nbsp;premium looking&nbsp;technology that was bought from&nbsp;a single, reputable brand.&nbsp;

Once inside, S. Aureus quickly stripped himself of&nbsp;all his&nbsp;clothing, throwing them with such accuracy and precision towards the half empty wooden laundry basket as he walked towards the huge, queen sized bed. Meanwhile, the grey wolf who was leaning at the closed wooden&nbsp;doors smirked&nbsp;as he stared directly at the white wolf's behind with lustful amber eyes.&nbsp;

"You know, if you just want&nbsp;some 'alone time' with your childhood&nbsp;friend, you could have asked in a polite manner&nbsp;instead of well, you know..."

"Luke," S. Aureus said with a soft&nbsp;smile&nbsp;as he turned towards&nbsp;the smirking grey wolf, "I really wanted&nbsp;to have some&nbsp;'alone time'&nbsp;with you. Unfortunately, I also needed to have my well deserved sleep, since my&nbsp;mind and body is too tired from the hospital duty."

"Ah, I see..." Luke replied in an understanding tone, before a yawn escaped his muzzle. "Well, I'm tired too, so..."

"I concur with you, Luke. Lets&nbsp;just go to sleep." S. Aureus replied as he laid down on the comfortable&nbsp;bed and closed his eyes, smiling in relief as he felt the warm body of the grey wolf beside him, as well as the lean and&nbsp;muscular furred&nbsp;arm that was placed on the side of his body.

"Oh my... Your&nbsp;body is&nbsp;so warm, Luke." S. Aureus said in a soft tone&nbsp;as he moved a&nbsp;bit closer towards the source of the heat. "At thirty seven&nbsp;degrees centigrade, which is the normal body temperature of a healthy Fur,&nbsp;you're&nbsp;probably&nbsp;the best bed sheet that I had in the entire world..."

"Heh, same to you too, Aureus... your body is&nbsp;pretty warm too." Luke replied&nbsp;back with a smile, before closing&nbsp;his eyes and letting&nbsp;his tired&nbsp;mind succumb to his body's desire for a well-deserved rest.

**Author's Note:**

So, what do you think? It seems that S. Aureus has everything a canine&nbsp;could only dream of - riches, fame, a&nbsp;high status, a&nbsp;strong and united wolf pack with some&nbsp;very nice&nbsp;members, and so much more... However, the real story&nbsp;will begin&nbsp;in chapter two... so, well... just stay tuned for the next chapter.
