Sebastian is a cat hybrid. No one wants him. Blaine finds him at a shelter and offers to take home.
Sebastian sat in his room , well room was a generous word as that offered privacy. He sat in a 10ft by 8ft clear cube with air holes. He was in his normal attire, naked except for his underwear. The only possession he was allowed to wear. This was his 3rd time back at the shelter. Sebastian had started to loose hope with the amount of time he had been back. Hybrids were returned when they didn't blend well with the family or didn't perform to their needs. Sebastian had generally been used for entertainment which often involved 'servicing' men. With as much as Sebastian enjoyed it, the staff were always surprised when he was returned. The first was because he had picked up a virus from one of the men (Thankfully treatable and curable) the second time was because he was too well 'used' and not tight enough. The third one was because he had tried to rise above his station. Now these may not seem like good reasons but at this time they were perfectly reasons to return hybrids. Hybrids were the 'freaks' of society, the had no rights as they weren't considered human and they weren't considered animals. Even animals were treated better than hybrids. A person could own and do whatever they wanted to it, once ownership had been claimed. Many had been killed from ill neglect and abuse. Sebastian waited patiently
"Now Sebastian, this really isn't good enough. Your third return and every time you look worse. I should just finish you rather than waste money or food for you, You have 3 days to find a new owner and if you are returned by that owner I will have no choice but to remove you from these facilities" the owner said
This made Sebastian shiver, though not from the cold. But people still had a fascination with how Hybrids were created. He would be sent to labs to be prodded, poked and ultimately killed they had taken everything from him. He sat up straight, though was very much aware of his state. His hair was a mess, his bones were showing through his skins, he had great bags under his eyes from loss of sleep and his hair was greasy and grubby. They got a cold wash with a bar of soap and a hose pipe once a week, though now that wouldn't be till after the 3 days. Sebastian tried his best and when people came to look at him, he tried to show them smile or a saunter to show his experience but they would read his profile or look at him and just think he was used.
It was coming up to his third day, Sebastian had a plastic window and decided to observe the sunset one more time, then be up to see the final sunrise. It was on that last day that he just sat in the corner blanket draped over his shoulders. It was then he noticed the door open and a man walk in.
"Yes my fiancée has just left me, and the house is so empty. I was looking for someone to have around, you know for company"
"Yes and what are looking for?" The owner asked
"Male preferably, possibly a dog or cat hybrid, other than than I am open"
"Ok well here's the males, feel free to read the bio and let me know if any take your fancy The ones this end are the newest, the ones at the end are the ones who have been here a long time or been returned. I would stick with the top ones, much better trained for your services." The salesman said
Sebastian watched the man walk down the aisle and look at the various information about each one. Sebastian saw him stop at one who had blonde hair and blue eyes, but after reading the information seemed disinterested. He continued to the more 'used' or 'older' section to look around and his eyes settled on Sebastian, he moved over to read the information
"Wow, you've been here a few times...Sebastian. Can you come up to the window so I can have a closer look"
Sebastian startled but raised himself to his feet and walked closer
"Wow your taller than me but most people are" He said with a chuckle "Your so skinny but you had muscles once I can see. Green eyes, cats eyes I think they are appropriately called...your hair well in this picture it looks like dark blonde but look a bit brown to me, you look nothing like him. You have freckles in this picture too. Can I hear your voice please? Are you able to sing?"
Sebastian opened his mouth "What would you like me to say" He asked his voice a bit croaky from lack of use
"And you sound nothing him. Perfect. I just need to grab someone"
Blaine left and returned with the salesman a few minutes later "Are you sure you want this one? His been well used as you can see, we have newer ones"
"No he is what I am looking for" Blaine said
"Our recent company policy is to do a physical before he leaves so you know what we are selling to you especially has been returned a few times. Smyth someone will come and get you"
The man left with Blaine and Sebastian heard the gate open, felt the half collar, half choke chain around him and led to the exam room. Blaine and the man waited there. Sebastian was led to scales first, his weight was noted. Then he was told to remove his underwear which he did and the doctor then proceeded to turn him round. They showed Blaine his anus opening and explained it was now very lose from over use. They then turned around and gave him a tablet. In less than 5 minutes he only had a half erection. Apparently he was unable to have a full one anymore. They proceeded to show Blaine all his faults. Sebastian watched Blaine's expressions and saw him look at him with a look of horror. 'Oh great someone else who thought he was horrible' Blaine's eyes met his and Sebastian saw a look he didn't recognise.
"Do you still want him? We give him an internal clean before he leave, company policy"
"Does he really need that?" Blaine asked
"Well you want him nice and clean right?" The man asked
"Well you could have offered him a bath, I am not worried about anything internally. Can I just sign the papers, pay and get going"
"Of course Mr Anderson. Let me get them. Right do you have a lead and collar?" The saleman asked
"Yes" Blaine said pulling them out of his bag
Sebastian noted with some interest that it was a black, leather collar and Blaine placed it around Sebastian's neck. He then got out the lead and attached it to the collar.
"The underwear belongs to the company so he'll have to leave naked"
"That's fine." Blaine said and signed the paper work, handing over the money and ID and got the papers back.
"Congratulations Mr. Anderson" He said
Blaine thanked the man before leading Sebastian out of the shelter. It was only a short walk to him car
"I have some joggers in the back, let me get them for you. They'll be a bit short but it's something right? I also have a T-shirt. It's an old one my brother left. His taller than me, so it should fit you better. Put them on then it in car"
Sebastian did as asked surprised by Blaine's request. The material was soft and warm, and very comfortable. Sebastian wasn't going to argue with wearing clothes he made to get in the back
"Get in the front" Blaine said opening the door for him
Once again Sebastian complied in a little bit of awe of his new owner
"When we get back to mine, we'll get you cleaned up, back into those clothes then we'll head to the thrift store and buy some clothes that fit you, and you'll also need something to eat, do you have any allergies?" Blaine asked glancing at Sebastian
"No sir" Sebastian answered
"First rule, in private you call me Blaine" Blaine said with a smile "We'll go over the rest when we have dinner. What do you fancy?"
"I um...can't eat very spicy foods" Sebastian answered quietly
"I don't like spicy food much either, so how about fish? I mean you are part cat and cat's like fish?"
Blaine chanced a look and saw a distasteful look on Sebastian's face and laughed quietly "OK so no fish. Hmm it doesn't look like you've eaten a lot recently chicken salad maybe? Or Chicken and rice?"
"No cat food?" Sebastian asked
"You are part human, I thought those taste buds might over rule you canine ones..." Blaine queried
"Chicken sounds fine...Blaine" Sebastian answered
"OK so lets get you home."
They drove home, and Sebastian took a moment to look at his new home. It was small and cosy.
"Welcome to my humble abode, I am still in the process of decorating, it does only have one bedroom and a small closet sized office but you can sleep there if your uncomfortable in my room or the lounge area. I'll show you the bathroom"
Blaine showed him the bathroom and shower, showed him all the toiletries and was about to leave when a quiet voice asked
"I need my hair washed, can you um..my arms hurt" he said
"Of course" Blaine said
Sebastian stripped out of his clothes. Blaine had already seen all of him. A little bit more didn't matter.
"OK how about you sit in the tub, we'll run for you in the mean time and I will shower your hair"
Sebastian sat down in the bath and Blaine began washing his hair with the shower head, before shampooing it noticing a few bumps below the surface, one a little bigger than the others like he'd been hit on the head with something
"Sebastian, do these hurt" Blaine asked his hand gently running over them
"Not if you don't touch them." Sebastian quietly answered
Blaine continued to be gentle as he finished washing Sebastian's hair and around his ears
"I am just going to prepare dinner. Come down when your ready" Blaine said as he dried his hands before quietly closing the door.
As Blaine prepared dinner he took a moment to think about what he had seen today and it had horrified what people were willing to do to the Hybrid. Sebastian looked like he had been so confident at one time and now he was just a shell of whatever his former character had been. Blaine was determined to get that character back, but knew he would have to do it slowly. It was obvious Sebastian had been taught to think of himself as sex buddy (well that was what Blaine decided from reading the file and the physical) he needed to be careful that he didn't follow the same path. Sebastian came down the stairs half an hour later looking cleaner and better. Blaine took a moment to admire the long, graceful limbs.
"Oh I forgot, do you um...need a hole for your tail in the bottoms?" Blaine asked having momentarily forgot Sebastian had a tail.
"I try to keep it tucked out of sight" Sebastian answered
"Doesn't that hurt?" Blaine asked
"It stops people starring" Sebastian answered
"OK well if you do change your mind, we can sort that out." Blaine said
Sebastian quietly sat while Blaine cooked. When food was ready he looked a little confused
"I always eat in front of the TV when on my own, if that's OK with you?"
"Yes Blaine" Sebastian answered
Blaine served the food. Sebastian made to sit on the floor at Blaine's feet
"You don't have to sit on the floor but if you want to, there's a floor cushion over there" Blaine said pointing at the black cushion. Sebastian took a moment before gingerly getting the cushion and sitting on the floor at Blaine's feet.
"Are you sure your comfortable down there" Blaine asked
"I am OK thank you" Sebastian answered picking at his food
"So Sebastian...what do you enjoy doing?"
"Um...nothing much...I don't really have the time..." He answered quietly
"Do you like to read?"
"You think I can read?"
"You seem relatively smart and I thought that Hybrids were able to do a lot of things humans could do"
"It wasn't considered important...I was taught...to please people...that was it"
"Please people? Oh I see. Well how about you watch some TV with me? Or a movie? Before bed"
"Then sex uh … Blaine"
"No Sebastian. No sex. I just got out of a bad relationship. I have no interest in sex. I brought you because I am lonely. I don't like being on my own. I like having someone to talk to, help out around the house, cuddle maybe. So rules? Blaine in the house, on our own or with certain friends. I will tell you before hand. Sir when we are out. Do not make eyes contact with a 'human', you must be on a lead in public. When I am not around I want you to stay in the house. You are not allowed to go anywhere on your own. I know these are a lot of rules and it sounds means but in the current climate it's not safe out there. We will go out, for walks or to the shops or other places together. Is that understood?" Blaine asked
"Yes sir."
"I would also like it if you could help out during the day when I am at work, not right now mind you, when you are feeling better. Not to do anything strenuous maybe just wash up the odd thing, hang up a wash load. Can you cook?"
"A little sir,"
"Maybe an evening meal if I am going to be late. Will that be OK?"
"Yes Blaine"
"In return you will always have somewhere comfortable to sleep, my bed, the office or lounge with plenty of blankets. I will sort you out some clothes too. You can eat when you want and whatever you want, the same with drinking. One other thing I would ask never open the door if I am not here. My friends all know not to turn up when I am not around. I will lock the door when I leave but in case if emergency, a spare key is in my bedside drawer. Is his acceptable?" Blaine asked
"Very, thank you"
"That's good" Blaine sat quietly and Sebastian basked in the glow. He didn't know anything about this life style and some of the things sounded to good to be true. He would have to wait and see if Blaine followed through his wishes. Even if this only lasted for the night, Sebastian was thankful that he was alive, in a nice warm house for the night. He didn't want to get his hope but he really hoped one day he could call this place a home.
I don't know if I will continue this further, I am just testing the water.
