Perspective Moo Moo
Moo got his neck bitten by Phîi Ruthless, Há.
That day, the day I had to go stay at Phîi Graphic's house, I woke up in the middle of the night. I had cried and fussed, missing home, missing my Chao-nai, for so long before I could even fall asleep. And then I found that Phîi Ruthless was trying to kill me!
Yes, Há. Phîi Ruthless was going to kill Moo. Moo is telling the truth, Ná.
I don't understand what being Phîi Ruthless's property means. But what I do know is that Phîi Ruthless bit my neck. I was so scared. My body trembled. I hardly dared to breathe. I could only huddle in the corner of the room, waiting for the people in Phîi Graphic's house to come running to look. And on top of that, they scolded me, saying not to open the cage door and not to howl, it's annoying. But I didn't do anything at all. Everything that happened was solely because of Phîi Ruthless.
He was the one who opened the door. He made me cry. And now... I am very afraid of him.
I was so scared that the moment my Chao-nai came to pick me up, I jumped into his arms. I was crying, sobbing, and climbing all over my Chao-nai, begging him to take Moo home, take Moo back. Moo is scared now. Moo doesn't want to come here anymore. I was mopey for the whole week.
I tried to turn my neck to show my Chao-nai the wound, but my shirt was too thick. And my Chao-nai... he kept talking about Phîi Pong, not paying any attention to the fact that I was hurt. The back of my neck was wounded. And also.... the strong scent… stuck to my body.
At first, I was very shocked, but after coming home and calming down, I found that my scent had changed. And also... other people at the spa were looking at me peculiarly.
The woman who used to scold me for being low-class looked at me with wide eyes and said just one word.
'Impossible.'
I don't understand. What does the bite mark on the back of my neck mean? Why is everyone looking at me so strangely? But because many days passed, I had mostly forgotten about it. Plus, the strong scent faded more every time I took a bath. Since I'm the type who likes to bathe often, the scent faded until it was almost back to normal. But...
Why does Moo have to see Phîi Ruthless again?!
I, I ran straight through the bushes to the back of the house, hid beside the wall, and peeked at that tall, large-built man wearing leather pants with wide eyes. When I heard that Phîi Ruthless was going to stay with me for several days, I was so scared my body shook. I told myself I had to stay with my Chao-nai all the time. Then I wouldn't be bullied by Phîi Ruthless.
But why, why, Há..... Why did Phîi Pong have to take my Chao-nai away too!
In the car, I curled up into a ball by the door on one side. As for Phîi Ruthless, he just sat looking at the scenery outside, not paying me any attention. My heart was just thumping nervously until I felt relieved when my Chao-nai brought me down to a big shop that smelled of delicious snacks. They even had snacks for my kind.
I smiled until my eyes closed again. I got to eat snacks. They're not as delicious as the ones Phîi Pong makes, but they are tasty. And this place has so many people. Many people came to play with me, so I felt a bit better. And since my Chao-nai was nearby, I started to smile, even up until... now.
Now that my Chao-nai and Phîi Pong have disappeared somewhere.
“So cute. And such blue eyes.”
“I heard his owner brought him. He's not the shop's dog.”
“So cute, right? He looks well taken care of. So beautiful all over.”
The human women are praising me, Há. Along with taking out a rectangular box to take pictures of me. I do as my Chao-nai taught me by smiling for them, tilting my head a little like my Chao-nai says is cute.
But...
"Extremely disgusting."
Huh?
I could only turn to look the other way, and then I met an Phîi of the same breed... a Siberian, Há.
She is a woman with a very good figure. She has long, brown fur, soft and beautiful. She seems to have Alaskan lineage, I'd say she's dignified and majestic, Lâe Há. Compared to her, I'm just a little one with nothing good except blue eyes. And she seems to dislike me very much.
“I'm sorry, Há,” I quickly apologized as my Khun Mâe taught me.
“There you go.” “Oh, I thought there was something so great about him. He's just low-class trash. With a type like this, his owner will probably toss him aside after one time.”
Moo doesn't understand. What is she talking about?
I could only tilt my head and look, not understanding what was happening. Who is getting whom? Who is tossing whom aside? What's going on? Then the Phîi walked over to me. She walked around me as if inspecting goods. Her dark eyes looked down at me, making me curl up tighter. Then she leaned her face close to mine.
“What did you lie to him about to get him to take you?”
“Moo... doesn't understand.”
“Are you pretending to be stupid or what?!” She snapped at me, making me clench my fists tighter against my chest, pulling my shoulders in tightly. I was already so scared I was about to tremble, while still shaking my head, mumbling the same thing, hoping she would understand.
“Moo doesn't know, Há.”
“Tch.” What did Moo do wrong, Há? Why does she have to act like she hates me so much?
Now she looks at me with contempt and says in a sharp voice.
“Then do you know what status your owner holds here?!”
I'm just my Chao-nai's dog, Há. What status do I need to have? I really don't understand. Even...
126 “If you're just low-class trash, then bow your head to me!!!”
“Há! Há Há Há!”
I nodded immediately, then quickly threw myself down onto the ground, placing both hands on the grass, followed by my head pressed down low out of habit. Because this is the posture to show respect to someone of higher status. But maybe because for almost a month now no one has ordered me to do this, I had forgotten. When she reminded me, I bowed my head obediently because I didn't want to get hurt, I didn't want to be harmed.
“Good, know your place a little.”
I bowed my head until my forehead was almost touching my hands on the ground. That's when...
“And who do you think you are to order my person around?!”
Suddenly, I feel someone grab the collar of my shirt. With one pull, I go flying towards him. Following that is the intensely strong voice I'm so afraid of it makes my head shrink. I can only turn to look and find...
“Phîi Ruthless...”
Phîi Ruthless, with a face like he wants to kill someone.
Perspective Ruthless
My opportunity has arrived.
At first, I was almost mad with anger that my Chao-nai wouldn't let me follow him to provide protection, but instead wanted me to wait at home in Bangkok. But when my Chao-nai said he would have me stay with a friend, my anger lessened, replaced by the thought that I would take out the frustration of not being able to follow my Chao-nai on that-brat.
That youth I've been wanting to possess.
Last time, the opportunity wasn't favorable due to many factors. This time, I think... It's time to hunt my prey.
My little prey who ran to hide behind the house. But it's not like I didn't see it trembling pathetically, and that made me... smirk.
I have several days to deal with it.
This thought makes me stand still, not attacking, not speaking, not threatening, not doing anything at all, so that my prey... lets its guard down.
Honestly, I don't really like coming outside much because I find those who want to get close to me annoying. But getting to see that beautiful-faced, fair-skinned youth smiling sweetly and cutely at everyone, acting adorable until he's lovely and endearing, makes me think it's worth tolerating the annoyance.
Am I thinking he's cute again?
Peculiar.
I shake my head to dismiss this thought. I just want to have him, that's all. So the only thing I'm not too pleased about is that the scent on him has faded until it's almost gone, even though less than a month has passed.
No matter. There's still time.
I think that as I sit watching from another corner of the field, staring at the little one who lacks survival instinct, not paying any attention to the fact that there are now three women around me.
“What's your name? Is this your first time here? I've been here many times, I've never seen you before. It's such a pity we just met. This is the first time I've met such an imposing Alpha. Your scent is so intense it's making me tremble all over.”
I roll my eyes in annoyance when I encounter these chatterboxes. Even if they're beautiful, they're not my type. I don't reply. But...
“Don't you think you talk so much he finds you annoying?”
“He's annoyed by you, the one who keeps staring. Geez, just one look and I know you want him to be the Phô of your pups. No need to act all prim and proper. Let me just say it for him, he's annoyed.”
They're both as bad as each other!
I can't be bothered with trouble. Even though I want to snap at them to shut up, because if I show any sign of making a scene or shoot a murderous glare at anyone, the one who will face the consequences is my Chao-nai's friend.
I don't come to a place like this often, but I know if I cause trouble, my Chao-nai's friend won't be able to come here again. So I just let them quarrel among themselves.
“You're both annoying, you know.”
Snap... Click
I intended to sit still and not associate with anyone. But suddenly, I flash a warning glance when someone touches my arm.
"Let go!"
Gasp!
"Yes."
I say just one word, and the beautiful brunette owner quickly releases my arm, taking two steps back, just like the ones who were quarreling. Because I'm confident my gaze is frightening enough, and my voice is firm enough to make everyone listen.
“I'm in a bad mood right now. Don't bother me,” I say flatly.
“But..."
“Don't you understand?”
Everyone around me scrambles back far away, bowing their heads low, not daring to make eye contact with me. This makes me let out a low Hmph in my throat, feeling a bit better that these annoying people have backed off somewhat. Now I can have time to look at the little blue-eyed one who is rolling around on the grass field.
Cute.
I end up smiling. My annoyance has lessened a little.
The way that-brat forgets I'm here is so cute it makes me really want to pounce on him hard. But...
“What's so good about that brat anyway?”
I immediately snap my gaze towards the speaker, making that woman quickly avert her eyes and walk away in another direction. But it's the direction where... that-brat is playing.
I narrow my eyes because my instinct tells me this probably isn't good.
I realize immediately that woman is displeased. But I didn't think she would go straight to attack that dim-wit brat. I may be sitting here, but I hear every word, every insulting sentence, until something inside me is ignited with anger.
Not a single word. My life has never encountered words like this from anyone. But why doesn't that-brat talk back?
And that posture... like a frog staring at a snake!
That dim-wit brat might not be the smallest one here, but I know well he has the lowest status. I thought superficially that my scent on him would prevent anyone from daring to cause trouble. But I thought too simply. I wasn't strong, powerful, and sharp enough. And that woman wanted it so badly... enough to dare consider the jealousy of others. Our breed wants offspring to continue a strong bloodline. Attacking a youth protected by my scent is worth the risk.
And most despicable... he is about to press his forehead to the ground.
Snap
I don't even think before running over, grabbing the blue-eyed brat by the collar, and snapping in a deep voice.
That woman's face fell, but she still argued.
“Wh-what's the big deal? That dog has to respect me, you know.”
Flustered. “But I don't allow it!” I say in a voice as deep as a threat, while the little one quickly says.
“Ph-Phîi Ruthless, it's okay, Há. Moo is used to doing it..."
“Shut up!”
I'm getting annoyed now... 'Used to doing it,' he says?!
My person doesn't need to bow his head to anyone!
I growl in my heart, staring at that woman's face until she averts her gaze, but she still doesn't hesitate to argue.
“I am much more suitable.”
“Hmph” I laugh mockingly at her misplaced confidence.
Okay, I admit this woman's bloodline is higher than that dim-wit brat, to the point of being equivalent to my own class, though not higher. But she is confident she can win my heart. I could smell it and knew immediately the other party wants sexual relations right now, wants it so badly she's trembling with desire for me. However, that's no reason to bully someone else like this!
I might be easily annoyed, but if no one bothers me, I don't go looking for trouble unnecessarily.
“I'm not interested in you. And even if you tried until you died, you still wouldn't be interesting.”
“Ph-Phîi Ruthless.”
“I told you to shut up, didn't I?” I say sharply.
Gulp
The little one shuts his mouth immediately, raising his hands to cover his mouth tightly, bowing his head submissively, not fighting back. Only when I'm sure he won't say anything to interrupt again do I turn to meet the eyes of the woman in front of me again.
“If you want it, go find someone else. I don't have time to play with you.”
I finish speaking and turn to look at the little one.
“As for you, follow me!” I'm confident my voice is the frightening kind that makes him bite his lip, bow his head, his ears flattening against his beautiful silver fur. His appearance is so endearing I smile at the corner of my mouth, leading the way to another part of the field, intending to keep him under my protection. But...
“Because you—!!!”
Screech
Suddenly, a scream rings out from behind, making me turn my whole body. The speed at which our kind pounces might be too fast for humans to follow, but this is very slow for my eyesight. And the little one beside me also realizes he's about to be attacked, so he drops to sit on the ground, raising both hands to cover his head tightly, squeezing his eyes shut with a posture ready to receive pain.
But... I am right here.
Thwack
“Do you have a death wish or something, Wá?!”
Grab
I grab that woman by the collar and throw her to the other side of the field, roaring so loudly everyone turns to look in shock.
"Remember this! Don't mess with my person again!!!"
I sweep my gaze around, my voice commanding and deep. Then I drag the sobbing, trembling little one, who's shaking like a baby bird, away in another direction. Of course, my furious voice ensures that no one, neither human nor dog, can come near me, only watching with extreme trepidation, especially the woman who dared to start trouble.
Now everything has calmed down, and the humans sigh in relief. But... “Hic... Hic... Hoo... What did Moo do wrong... from... from the... moment... I met... Phîi Ruthless... Moo... is scared.” Let-me-die, I forgot about making him my property for a moment. Just making him not afraid of me is difficult enough.
Fine then.
Perspective Moo Moo
My Chao-nai is heartless, cruel, and ruthless, just like Phîi Ruthless's full name!!!
I'm begging you by crying, Há! I'm truly begging, Há! Not only did my beloved Chao-nai abandon me with Phîi Pong, but my Chao-nai didn't even listen to my complaint about what happened. He just walked around with a distant look, leading me to the car, not even turning to pay attention to me. I feel so hurt, so very hurt. I cried very hard too.
Hooooo, Chao-nai, Moo is scared. Don't abandon Moo again.
“Chao-nai, Chao-nai, ah, Chao-nai, Hic, Chao-nai, pay attention to Moo a little, Há.”
“Gok, I don't know what's wrong with Moo.”
“It's nothing, Phîi Pong. He just cries on and on. You should head home soon. It's getting dark downstairs.”
“Waaaaaah, Chao-nai, listen to Moo.”
I try to cry out to my Chao-nai, but my Chao-nai doesn't even turn to look at me sitting in the back seat. And I don't dare lean into the front seat either. I can only sit hugging my knees close to the door.
Afraid the man on the other side will grab my heart.
I have never been this scared before. Just now... I almost got hurt for sure.
I may be stupid, may be foolish, may be an idiot, but I know that I almost got hurt because of Phîi Ruthless.
That Phîi wanted Phîi Ruthless, but Phîi Ruthless made her dissatisfied.
Right now, Moo is most afraid of Phîi Ruthless.
“Stop crying, will you? Just by the smell, you can tell he has no concentration to listen to a whiny youth,” Phîi Ruthless himself says annoyedly, making me bite my lip.
Moo is sad.
I don't dare cry anymore. Just seeing Phîi Ruthless roar in the middle of the field, and everyone still obeying him, I know he is very different from me. I shouldn't disobey his orders. Except for one thing...
Wipe
“Are you going to cry for much longer?”
Gasp!
I don't know since when Phîi Ruthless moved to sit next to me, and he is reaching out to wipe my cheek. Even though it's not gentle at all, not kind, not soft, but full of force that wipes in one go, he is still wiping my tears for me.
“But Moo is scared,” I mumble.
“If you're scared, then become mine.”
Thud
There it is. The one thing I cannot comply with.
Again. Now Phîi Ruthless is talking about that again, making me just widen my eyes, turn to look at him, and find him making a serious face, his voice deeper than before.
“If you were mine, something like this wouldn't happen again.”
Clench clench clench clench
“N-no... Há... Can't. Gasp!!” The moment I refuse, his eyes become more frightening instantly.
Grab
I quickly shake my head until my hair whips around, then hug my knees even tighter as if protecting myself, whispering fearfully.
“Moo... doesn't want it. Moo doesn't want anyone to quarrel. Everyone fights over Phîi Ruthless, but Moo doesn't want it!”
I don't understand things about wanting respect or power or whatever, Há. I only know that I want to live peacefully with my Chao-nai, with my Khun Phô and Khun Mâe. I don't want more than that, except for a snack or two per day is enough. Therefore, I don't want to be Phîi Ruthless's property if it means having to get beaten up like that.
But...
“Why are you so stubborn, Wá?!” Phîi Ruthless yells at me again.
I don't answer the question. I just tremble.
“Sigh, I haven't even looked yet, can you not cry for a moment... What's so bad about being mine?”
“Everything is bad, Há.”
“You damned-animal brat!!!” He said he wouldn't scold, but the moment I argue, Phîi Ruthless growls, his eyes gleaming as if he wants to kill me.
“Listen. You saw for yourself that I can protect you.”
“But if Phîi Ruthless weren't here, I wouldn't be targeted, Há.”
“Do you want to die?”
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah Moo doesn't want to die yet.
I shut my mouth abruptly, looking on apprehensively, wanting to scramble to sit in the front with my Chao-nai, but I'm trapped by those almond-shaped eyes staring fixedly at me. And that frightening gaze changes to one of approval. The lips that were clenched together, showing fangs, relax into a smile that is very handsome but... the most terrifying.
“So you're not going to agree.”
“Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh.” I nod my head repeatedly, to which Phîi Ruthless...
He gives up, Há! So happy!
I almost smile, thinking that Phîi Ruthless is bored with me now, doesn't care about me anymore. Because if it's just being like siblings, then I'd like that, Há. Being friends is fine too. Even if my status is much lower, our masters are friends, we'd probably see each other often. If Phîi Ruthless stops thinking about me being his property or whatever, I can be cheerful again like before. But...
“Then I'll chase you down!”
"Huh?!"
I, I widen my eyes, staring at Phîi Ruthless until they almost pop out. Even if he moves back to sit on the other side, his eyes... don't leave me.
“I'm fair enough. So I'll tell you right here, you can run however you want. I'm willing to play a game of chase with you. But whenever I catch you...” Phîi Ruthless doesn't tell me what he'll do, but says another thing with a... wicked smile.
“I've never lost to anyone in a game of hunt, you know.”
Moo thinks Moo will definitely die tonight.
