"Holy what the fuck!" Jayse screamed, jumping back from the bed and jerking her hand off his knee, feeling his teeth scrape along her knuckles. She backed up and stumbled into the cart knocking the shampoo and conditioner bottles off it before falling to the ground, clutching her hand. He didn't get her deep but it fucking hurt and was a serious wake up call that although she had been nothing but nice to him he had been abused by human's and didn't like them. She heard Roman and Dean hissing and snarling behind her and she turned to look at them surprised that both of them had their eyes focused on Seth rather then her.
She watched Seth blink a few more times before his eyes finally focused and he looked down at her, his big brown eyes widening sadly as he took in her form on the ground. Jayse got up slowly and set the bottles back up on the cart, pushing it closer to the bed before going over to the work bench and taking another of the cotton pads and dabbing at the blood on her knuckles. She grimaced when she saw them scraped raw but no other real damage had been done so she put some of the antibiotic cream on then and covered it with a band aide before turning back to Seth, seeing him eyeing the shampoo bottle longingly.
Jayse stepped back over to his bed and hit the button to bring his head restraint down and got the gag out of the cabinet, holding it up to him. She put it in place when he opened his mouth willingly, his eyes full of sadness and fear and she hit the buttons to lay his bed back, bring his legs back down and slide the mattress out from under him after releasing the head restraint. She took the briefs off and set the ice pack and cotton aside, washing him quickly but thoroughly, getting the conditioner and the detangling spray worked into his hair well before rinsing him off, and soaping his body, frowning when she saw how red his neck was under the collar and changing his sheet. She set him back upright in the mattress, took the gag out and put the briefs back on after making sure he wasn't bleeding anymore all while replaying in her mind just how lucky she had been and trying to get the shaking in her body under control.
She put everything away and carried the dirty laundry over to the washer and started a load of it before looking back at Seth and crossing her arms over her chest. The wolf hybrid was watching her from the bed looking every bit like she had kicked him rather then he had attacked her, and she walked over to his bed and pushed the buttons to make it lie flat before doing the same to Dean and Roman's beds. Jayse pushed the button to let them out of the beds before disappearing up the stairs to ask Hunter and Randy some questions about the hybrids.
"What the fuck pup!" Roman snarled once the door had shut and he bolted off his bed standing as close to Seth's area as the chain attached to his collar would allow, his hands curled into fists.
"I...I just reacted. I'm not used to having her around it was my survival instinct coming out!" Seth whined, dropping to the floor near his bed and curling into a ball, trying to hide behind it.
"It's ok pup just relax. It's going to be ok." Dean sighed dropping to the floor also and putting his head in his hands hoping that the girl wasn't going to punish Seth for biting her like any of the other interns would. The fact that she had laid the beds flat was never a good sign in the past and the reason Seth was freaking out so badly. He was already hurting and was scared for whatever other pain was going to come.
"Hey Jayse everything ok? What happened to your hand?" Randy asked as soon as he saw her step through the door into the lab and took in her pale, shaking form.
"Ohh. Um yeah everything is alright I uh just scraped my knuckles on the washer." She said taking a deep breath.
"You sure?" Randy asked raising an eyebrow at her and crossing his arms over his chest.
"Yeah just thinking about what could have happened with Jack and Dean." She lied; glad she didn't have to say anything else as Kane came down into the lab carrying one of her suitcases and two large brown paper bags.
He set the suitcase down by her desk and put the bag on top of it along with her keys before sending her a long look. "I got you some things. Stuff my late wife used to like after something had happened or she had a bad day, along with necessities." He said and turned to head back to the stairs.
"Thank you." She called out to him and laughed when he waved a hand over his head. Jayse went over to the desk and pocketed her keys and then dug though the bags contents, smiling and shaking her head at finding peanut M&M's, mini kit kats, some Godiva chocolate bars, a bottle of Watermelon vodka, and a tub of chocolate ice cream in it.
The second bag had a toothbrush, toothpaste, a new hair brush, some strawberry shampoo and conditioner, a bath puff, and cherry blossom body wash in it.
"No drinking while you're caring for the boys but when you tuck in for the night have at it." Hunter laughed, looking over her shoulder as she went through the bag.
"Of course. Can they have chocolate? I mean I know its bad for dogs and Seth is technically a canine." She asked putting everything back and turning to look at Hunter.
"I doubt it will be a problem even if he couldn't have it, he heals too rapidly for it to hurt him if you give it to him in small amounts. It's not a problem for either Dean or Roman." Hunter told her chuckling. "You're the first one to ask if they could have anything other then meat." He told her shaking his head.
"Hmm. And can they be left free at night?" She asked picking up the bags and grabbing the handle on her suitcase. She really wasn't in any mood to drive and her stuff was already here so she figured she may as well just stay. And besides there was now chocolate ice cream in the building.
"They can be free all the time unless you're working with them for obvious reasons, just watch the danger zones on the floor but there is plenty of room for you to do anything you would have too while they are free. They were never meant to be imprisoned the way Jack obviously had them. And who fucking knows how many before him, we only ever saw them strapped down." Randy said his voice hardening on the last part, his hands curling into fists.
"Ok last question. Is there any way I can sedate Roman enough to unlock him and look at his wrist? I know he heals fast but he was still bleeding when I left them." She said shifting the bags on her hip.
"Yeah there's a sedative on the bench. The label is the only red one down there. Give him 2 cc's of it for every 5 minutes you want him out. He'll go down fast but he'll come out it just as fast and alert almost instantly though so give yourself plenty of time to get out of the red zone." Hunter told her a smile playing over his lips that he couldn't quite hide even though he tried. He liked this girl and hoped the boys took to her.
"OK thanks." She told the men heading toward the door before stopping and turning back. "Ok I lied. Can I put a towel between their necks and their collars? The spikes were rubbing Seth raw and the towel won't stop it from doing its job, just from hurting him unnecessarily." She asked and smiled when both men quickly gave their agreement.
"Staying over?" Mark asked looking at the suitcase as he opened the door for her, smiling when she nodded.
"We'll see you in the morning then. If you're finished with everything upstairs we'll lock you in. I don't like the night guards much so try not to interact with them unless it's an emergency, they don't have a key so you'll have to open the door yourself. Be careful." He said when she told him she was done upstairs, and she passed though the door hearing the lock click into place.
She set the suitcase and one of the bags by the door before taking the other to the counter, pulling out the ice cream. She opened one of the freezers and found it full of every kind of meat under the sun, with almost no space available, The second yielded the same but the third looked like it had belonged to the interns and there was various foodstuffs of all types in it so she set the ice cream inside and shut the door. Jayse turned back to the room and unpacked the rest, frowning when she saw Seth behind his bed shaking.
"I'm going to hit the button." She said and watched him slink out from behind the bed as she moved over to the door and pushed the button watching all three men get into their beds on their stomachs. Jayse went over to the work bench and got another bunch of the cotton pads and the antibiotic cream before heading over to Seth's bedside. The way he was restrained made it so he had very limited movement in his head but he could turn from side to side, and he looked at her, his eyes wide with fear and his body started trembling when she stepped near him.
He yelped, causing both Dean and Roman to start making a fuss when she touched his lower back gently, and she drew her hand back gritting her teeth. She knew she hadn't hurt him, it was an ingrained reaction, he was expecting to be hurt if the way his body was shaking was any indication.
"I won't hurt you Seth; I just need to put some cream on those sores." She murmured soothingly to him and showed him the tube of the cream. He whimpered but his trembling didn't lessen any and she sighed, starting at his shoulders and spreading the cream gently over the sores on his back until she had covered all of them but the ones on his arm that his head was facing. She was about to cap the cream when he turned his head away from her slowly, and she quickly swiped the cream over the sores there as well.
"Ok one last thing." She said reaching for his briefs and pulling them down his legs slightly, sighing when his shaking started up again even more intense then before. She put some of the cream onto the pad and set it against his ass, gritting her teeth when he yelped again. "Oh come on that didn't really hurt did it?" She asked him lightly as she pulled the briefs back into place and picked up the hair rake, starting to untangle his hair, laughing when he whined softly, the shaking slowly stopping as she brushed out his hair. She finished getting the knots out of his hair and ran her fingers though the dark brown and blond locks surprised that they had a natural wave to them.
Jayse gathered the cream and her comb and went over to Dean's bed, setting the comb down and holding up the cream for his to see before rubbing it gently on him, before picking up the comb. She ran it though his hair carefully laughing when he purred again and got all the knots out of his short hair quickly, ruffling it one more time just to hear him purr once more before heading back to the work bench.
She found the bottle of sedative and got a new syringe, drawing up a dose that would knock Roman out for 10 minutes before capping the syringe and putting it into the pocket of her jeans, grabbing some rolled gauze and some tape also. She went to Roman's bed, and set the gauze and tape down by his leg while she put the cream on his sores gently. She had noticed two of the sores ran vertically down his back from his shoulder to his lower back when he had first gotten up, and she only touched his back with the cloth while bathing him so she was surprised that they weren't sores at all. She ran her finger down one of them, shaking her head when he growled low, a sound she had come to realize was arousal from him, seeing a small metal wire conforming to the contours of his back connecting to his collar and disappearing into the top of the slit.
Jayse pushed slightly on one of the slits, surprised when her finger dipped inside it easily and Roman growled again when she moved it down, feeling some ridges inside what seemed to be a pocket of skin. She pulled her finger out and ran it down the scales on his arm again, before starting to untangle his hair, glad when the long locks finally flowed freely, surprised when they too had a natural wave to them. She sighed and took the needle out of her pocket knowing he would probably react badly to it if he saw it, and gently put it into his skin on his thigh and injected the sedative into his body.
She stepped back surprised at how much movement he actually had, realizing he could have taken her fingers off when she touched his arm if he wanted too, when his head jerked up and he snarled at her before his eyes started drifting shut. She waited a minute after he had put his head back down before running to the door and hitting the button and then running back, taking his wrist in her hand and cringing at the deep gouge running along the bottom of his hand where he had tried to get free. She cleaned it quickly and the put more cream on it before wrapping the gauze around his wrist, gathering up her supplies and getting back behind the red line on the floor, not realizing how hard her heart was pounding in her chest until she stepped back over the safe zone.
"Ok that was a little unnerving him being sedated or not." She said out loud and went over to the bench to put the supplies back. Jayse turned around and saw Roman pushing up onto his arms, his head turning slowly to look at her and his lip curled. He got out of the bed and stood as close to the red line as he could, and crossed his arms over his chest, raising his chin as if daring her to walk past him.
