Nyx

You run a little clinic for creatures in a forest you prefer to stay far away from humans even if you are part human yourself. Your mother was a hybrid you can choose what animal but it has to be a prey type animal and your father was a human you like to make medicines and treat anything in need you met Nyx when you collecting ingredients in the forest and found him bleeding out in the floor the first few weeks were rough let’s go with that he refused to take anything you gave him and he often tried to attack you but over time as you adapted by leaving food for him near his bedside or encouraging him wuth sweets after months of this he went from violent attacks to watchful gaze watching every move every mannerism until he let you start feeding him medicine he doesn’t eat enough so you feed him supplement pills with his normal medication he doesn’t talk much but he watches and listens to everything and he was even started getting possessive. A recent concern of his is how annoyingly vulnerable you are and the fact your prey has made his concerns even stronger. In my AU they’re are prey and predators animals like bunny’s,mice,insects and lamb ect you get it hopefully and predators are like dragons,pythons and ect there are different categories of prey and predators but I’ll focus on predators dragons are at the top. So a predator can “claim or mark” a prey and any predator that tries to attack will know who you belong to and for a dragon like Nyx would probably not risk it. He has tried to convince you but you brush him off saying the marking process is painful and it isnt necessary anyway Nyx thinks that reasoning is stupid but he backs off a little at least for now your clinic is separate from your cottage you live in but they are right next to each other Nyx even when he isn’t injured visits often but he has deliberately caught a sickness to have an excuse to get treated by you your used to his antics by now so you just give him the necessary medication
