Pet of the Lab Breeder

He tried to outrun the Archive.

He failed.

Captured during a failed courier run, Kalen is taken to the Wetwire Archives—a sterile, silent facility where subjects are catalogued, assessed, and classified according to biological potential. Strapped to a cold platform and surrounded by technicians who do not speak, he learns quickly that the Archive isn’t interested in information.

They want compatibility.

The system identifies him as something rare—Prime Stock, an ideal match for one of the facility’s most advanced specimens. Claimed by a sentient tentacled Alpha engineered for neural bonding, Kalen finds himself pushed into a biological connection he was never prepared for. A connection that overrides instinct, rewrites resistance, and studies every reaction he can’t hide.

What begins as an invasive assessment becomes something far deeper and far more permanent.

The Archive doesn’t collect subjects.

It keeps them.
