inked_prophet | Life In Captivity

*The zoo was always a busy place, families and friends, even dates alike would go to a zoo to see all sorts of captive living wild animals to get the chance to see them for themselves. The zoo of wild hybrids was no different, some lived like their wild counterparts. All but one.*

*Lounging in a tree, scales glittering in the streams of light, was the zoo's main attraction. The first and only living dragon hybrid. Dragons were legends, many thought they never existed, until now.*

*A proud scientist created him, the man had been laughed at and called a fool, but he proved them wrong. This was the first time, and Jonghyun was the first, until recently. Another dragon had been made to be his mate, to see if it could be bred with the prized main attraction.*

*The counterpart was in quarantine for some time, but it was cleared to be introduced into the habitat. The current resident was waiting for dinner, his creator said he would be joining him for his meal and had a surprise to share with him.*

These?

*Jaejin got the bag of things that Jiho had with him, pushing it into the cage carefully*

I asked them to put everything at the bag

Can you tell me a bit more about yourself?

From:

inked_prophet

*Jiho took the items and looked through the bag, making sure everything was accounted for before he looked back up to Jaejin. He contemplated on the question before he closed the bag and coiled his tail around it protectively.*

No. I said too much already. I only said as much as I had because you seemed to be less of a threat than the others, but you give the orders around here. My trust is limited.

*He said before he moved to lay down on the bedding he had woken up on, turning to face his back to Jaejin.*

From:

suju_ari

Wait... Please!

*Jaejin bit his lower lip but backed off, knowing that he needed to give the new hybrid some time to earn his trust.

Jaejin made sure that there is enough water for Jiho, deciding to stay overnight at the zoo, he got a spare blanket and slept at the spare bed next to the holding area*

From:

inked_prophet

*Jiho slept off the affects of the tranquilizer, only waking to eat and drink before going back to sleep. He spoke very little to Jaejin, but he noticed the younger stayed close by. He wasn't sure how much he liked that, but Jaejin was making sure he was comfortable.*

*When Jiho watched Jaejin, he noted that the younger never made a command that would be directed to cause him harm. He did have to give him some kind of annoying thing called shots, they were a bit irritating, but apparently they were important to make sure he didn't have any illnesses or anything that could be passed on to the other dragons.*

*Over the days in his quarantine, Jiho started to trust Jaejin more and more. He started to talk to the younger more, and Jaejin understood that he would have to earn his trust before he talked about certain things. He did tell Jaejin his name and about his family, but there wasn't much he was going to tell the small human about his species so he could keep them safe.*

From:

suju_ari

*Jaejin had slept at the zoo everyday since Jiho was brought there, he smiled at the dragon as he went to Jiho to speak with him everyday.

Jaejin was relieved that Jiho was more trusting of him to at least tell him his name and share a bit more about himswlf
himself*

Good morning, do you think you are ready lto meet our Dominant Alpha today?

I asked him about meeting another dragon and he seems pretty curious about you

From:

inked_prophet

*Jiho bristled slightly at the mention of the dominant. He was still unsure on if he wanted to meet him or not. Nibbling on his lower lip, he sighed softly as he frowned. Dragging his feet would only work so well.*

I... don't know.

*He said with a frown as he looked up from a piece of Jade he had been carving and sculpting. He tucked his things away as someone came in to check him and make sure he was safe to introduce to the other dragons.*

Am I going to have to mate with him? I... I don't want that...

From:

suju_ari

You can mate with him when you want to... Just try meeting him first?

*Jaejin tried to soothe Jiho, smiling encouragingly at him*

I know you will like Jonghyun, he is really sweet

*Meanwhile in the enclosure, Seungho is a little agitated, knowing that a new dragon might be added to their enclosure.

Seungho went over to Jonghyun and held him protectively*

How are you feeling, my precious one

From:

inked_prophet

*Jiho sighed, it was only a matter of time before he would be made to go into the enclosure. Placing his bag over his shoulder, he stood and followed Jaejin to what might be his new home if things went the way the humans wanted.*

*Jonghyun smiled up at his mate, his tail moving to wrap around Seungho to help sooth him. He was excited to meet one of their kind that was from the outside. It was a surprise to say the least to find out that there were dragons in the wild.*

I'm excited. I wonder where he came from, they were saying his scales make him stick out here, though. Snow white with black speckles... Are you excited to meet him?

From:

suju_ari

We will know more about him later... When we meet him

*Seungho gently rubbed Jonghyun's belly*

I am just agitated that they are introducing a new dragon when you are so close to laying eggs...

*Seungho tensed and looked up when the door opened and the smell of a sweet submissive hit his nose*

From:

inked_prophet

*Jonghyun smiled softly and nuzzled up to Seungho when the elder rubbed his egg filled belly. His belly has gotten bigger to accommodate the eggs, but it was just a small swell at the moment. He was about to say something, but the new scent that filled the enclosure made him sit up more.*

*Jiho stepped into the enclosure and looked around, clutching the strap of his bag close before he started to walk in more. It was calm, but he also could feel the tense atmosphere around the dominant from where he was.*

*He wasn't sure what he should do, but the enclosure was more tropic than what he was used to. Swishing his tail, he kept his defenses up as he reached up to tuck an annoying piece of hair behind his horns as he started to tentatively wander around the enclosure.*

From:

suju_ari

Let's go meet him, my precious one

*Seungho held Jonghyun close as they moved towards the sweet scent, his body still tense in agitation.

Seungho stilled when he saw the new dragon*

You are the new dragon? That human brought you here?

From:

inked_prophet

There were a bunch of humans that brought me... You were referring to the small one?

*Jiho asked as he turned to the dominant. His biology would have demanded that he submit to the male, but he was able to overcome that as he watched the mated pair. He wasn't ready to submit to the large male.*

*The black scaled dragon that was smaller than both of them was standing at his side with a bright smile and offering a warm welcome. He liked that one more. With slow movements, he bowed to the pair, noticing the smaller had a clutch of eggs. He didn't want to offend or make the dominant mad by approaching them.*

Woo Jiho... I don't mean to intrude, I'm a long way from my own territory.

From:

suju_ari

Yes... That small human, he was our creator...

*Seungho bristled when the new dragon did not submit to him but pulled Jonghyun behind him defensively when Jiho bowed, not understanding the ways of the new dragon*

They call me Seungho... My mate, Jonghyun

From:

inked_prophet

*Jiho could sense the dominant male was on edge, so he backed up slightly and looked at him curiously. Could it be that they had never been around their own kind before? The creator comment still had him confused, but he pushed it aside as he looked around their enclosure.*

This place... it's small.

*Jonghyun tilted his head and looked at the new male from around Seungho. This one was strange, but he supposed it was because they had never been outside before.*

Where were you from?

*Jiho looked to the small submissive and smiled softly at his curiosity.*

The humans called it the Himalayas. They are the tallest mountains in the world. There are other dragons there that call that place their home.

From:

suju_ari

*Seungho relaxed a bit more when Jiho backed off, looking down at Jonghyun when his mate asked questions curiously*

Do you want to go talk more with him, precious one?

*Jaejin was watching them from the glass panel, worried that Seungho would be too agitated to accept Jiho*

From:

inked_prophet

*Jonghyun nodded and smiled as he left Seungho's side and went over to Jiho. He took the taller submissive's hand led him over to a more private place that the three of them could talk without the wild dragon being on edge. He had noticed that Jiho had been glancing at the windows where humans watched them, so he knew it was best to move him away from there.*

So you really are from the outside. Seungho and I were made here. You seemed confused when he told you this. Basically we weren't hatched or born of dragons, but made from ancient life found in this rock thing by Jaejin. They thought he was crazy, but this really proves that there are still more out there!

*Jonghyun was excited, seeing the taller smile and give a soft chuckle.*

Yes, there are more. So many more, but we are in hiding. Bad humans would hunt us for our scales and horns, others to capture and use our abilities for their own personal gain. My umma told me that a really long time ago, dragons did live in peace with people until things got dangerous and we had to hide.

From:

suju_ari

*Seungho followed Jonghyun, not wanting to leave his pregnant mate out of his sight.

Seungho relaxed a bit when Jiho and Jonghyun started to talk, not interrupting since his mate was excited and curious about Jiho.

Jaejin hurried back into the office and watched the dragons through the cameras, wanting to make sure that Jiho and Jonghyun are safe in case Seungho snaps*

From:

inked_prophet

*Jonghyun and Jiho spoke a lot during the new dragon's introduction, the young submissive was learning so much about their kind that he couldn't wait to learn how to do too. Especially fly. That one sounded like it would be fun and he couldn't wait to learn.*

*Over the days, Jiho had showed no signs of submitting to Seungho, but he also wasn't showing territory dispute habits either. He was biding his time and hoping that if the didn't submit, they would send him back home.*

*He had spent his time hiding where he could and worked on his jade craft, seeing people from the zoo checking in on them and writing things down while they went on about their days.*

From:

suju_ari

*Seungho watched the new dragon, keeping his distance since Jonghyun enjoyed being around Jiho but his Dominant nature was getting pissed at how Jiho refuses to submit to him.

Seungho decided that he had enough, he went over to Jiho and held his shoulder, growling softly as he put some pressure, wanting to make Jiho submit to him*

I had enough of you behaving the way you do... Submit to me, submissive!

From:

inked_prophet

*Jiho was shocked when Seungho came over as he stood in the grass, soaking up the sun. He had been avoiding the man and keeping at the edges of his territory, but he apparently wasn't able to keep off his radar. When the hand became firm and demanding, Jiho grabbed his arm.*

*Summoning a gust of wind and sweeping his tail under the dominants feet, Jiho flipped the larger male over him and down to the ground onto his back. He had been trained to defend himself and knew how to fight without harming the other.*

No. I will not be your mate, I will not submit.

*He said as he glared down at the male before he took off into the air and went to hide on the rocks above the den. It was covered by foliage and was a place that somewhat reminded him of home.*

From:

suju_ari

*Seungho was shocked at the sudden gust of wind, he landed on his back before letting out a roar of anger when he finally catch his breath, looking around for Jiho.

Jaejin was called in urgently when the keepers witnessed the angry Dominant, Jaejin immediately went to the enclosure to try to calm Seungho down*

Seungho... Calm down please

*Seungho looked at Jaejin angrily, he didn't trust the tiny human and hated how Jonghyun and he had always been watched by the humans*

From:

inked_prophet

*Jonghyun heard the angry roar and came out of the den, rushing over to his mate. He came up slowly to Seungho's side and gently placed an gentle hand on his arm, getting his mate's attention.*

Dominant, please... calm down. Surely there has to be a reason why he is acting like this...

*He said softly as he looked to Jaejin, hoping the human has some answers.*

From:

suju_ari

He is a wild dragon... Used to his own ways

He is afraid of mating with you, Seungho

Be patient and try to get to know him better, please?

*Seungho huffed at the human, only calming down when Jonghyun touched him before wrapping his arms around Jonghyun, taking his precious mate back to their den.

Seungho sniffed along Jonghyun's neck, nibbling lightly on the mate bite*

I will try to wait a little longer... He will have to submit eventually

From:

inked_prophet

*Jonghyun purred softly at the nibbles to his mark and pulled Seungho into the den more. He sat down where the eggs would be heated and went back to arranging them the way he wanted. His belly has gotten a bit bigger since the eggs grew, which Seungho delighted in touching and caressing any chance he got.*

I'm not sure how much longer I will be carrying the clutch, but Jiho said that it will happen soon.

*He said as he looked over his shoulder to his mate with a soft smile. He wanted to have them in the den, it was safer there than anywhere else. He hoped that Jiho would give in, it would make him much happier.*

*Jiho knew he was running out of time. He knew his first heat was coming, there would be no avoiding it. He just hoped that the little spat would be enough and that they would let him go home after that.*

From:

suju_ari

Soon, our eggs will be here

*Seungho smiled and held Jonghyun, rubbing his belly again, he loved feeling his mate being rounded with their eggs, kissing his mark a few more times.

Jaejin went to the enclosure side where Jiho was close to*

Jiho... Why do you keep rejecting Seungho like that?

It is obvious that you are doing that in an attempt for us to send you home

You know that isn't going to happen
