"How did it go?" I ask Doctor David, another one of my friends, one of the most known plastic surgeons ever, he's a master and the reason this kind of surgery is available, his little fox was his first patient and it gained him the tone of fame.

"Perfect," David says, he's not smug, he's just confident, and he got every right to be so, his job is always perfect.

"Can I see her now?" I ask him, she's been taken away from me after she slept, and it felt like my heart broke into a million pieces with her too far away from me.

"She'll be brought in once she wakes up," David says, I just nod my head yes, waiting for her to be back, how fragile would she be? I know little hate having any kind of procedure done to them, they don't take pain well, even corporal punishment has to be thought well and only applied when needed.

"But Emiliyah, I need to have a chat with you first," he says, I looked at him did something go bad? Is that what he needs to tell me?

"Yes?" I answer him.

"When she comes out, she'll be extra sensitive, she won't eat, she won't sleep, and it'll be up to you to take care of her," he says, but I knew that I'll take good care of her, it'll be our best chance to bond even before we make it to the academy.

Bringing her over to the hospital was a big challenge, she cried and screamed, but in the end, I managed to calm her down, just enough to be ready to talk to me, hear me out, and agree to go through the procedure, even picking the tail and ear along with me. Now that part is over, it's time to help her heal, it's time to take good care of her and bond with her before we head off to our new life.

"Don't worry, I'll make sure my little is well taken care of," I answer him.

"Right, she's a little, maybe you can try regressing her, babies are usually easier to deal with, give them boobies and let them sleep," David says making me laugh out loud, he's clearly never been near any little, and one that's just been classified, she has no idea if she's ready to be breastfed or not, but it's not such a bad option, we'll be skipping some classes from the academy but she won't be remembering much of them.

"Maybe we could do that," I say, knowing the healing time would be like a dream for her, I kept on waiting until they brought her up, her tail and ears were bandaged, and they had her laying on her tummy with an Iv in her hand. I picked her up right away, placing her in my lap, petting her back, and avoiding touching her fresh wounds.

"She can leave the hospital tomorrow, the day after we'll need to check her wounds and take off the bandages and it'll be another couple of days until she makes full recovery," David informs me.

"Not a problem," I say deciding to never let her go until she gets better, and even then, I won't be leaving her. She didn't wake up through the night, they had her pumped up with medication that kept her asleep, she only whined and groaned a little during her sleep. I sent Maverick a message telling him that the procedure went well, closing my eyes and having some rest too as she's sleeping until the morning.

Her tears started to fall even before she woke up, she shifted a little bit in her sleep, and the tears started to fall down full force joined with screams, I tried to bounce her a little bit, but moving her only caused her more pain, I decided to follow David's advice and placed her against my chest, giving her access to my boobs, she latched on without being coached or told to, the tears started to slow down until she fell back to sleep.

"We're ready to leave," I tell David holding her carefully, she can't be placed in her car seat due to her sensitive tail, I carried her to my car, having one of the coven members drive us back to my house. My place was set and ready for a puppy, I had everything set since the day she was born, I was never allowed to get near her, not until she came of age, but I could go crazy getting her room ready.

It's a puppy room, filled with toys for both her pet and little side, a small dog bed set on the floor with a canopy around it, a changing table, a rocking chair, bookcase filled with stories appropriate for her, I thought about placing her cage in this room, but then changed my mind and placed it in mine, she won't be using it unless when needed, and better to keep it near me. Even the cage was decorated with cushions, teddies, and fairy light, no lock is needed, it's meant to be a safe place and not a prison, puppies need to be contained, and being left alone in an open space would only cause them anxiety.

She won't be able to see the house or try any of the toys I have ready for her until after she heals, until then, she'll be laying against my chest with pain killers given to her every couple hours, these are going to be a long couple days.
