A once-timid, self-loathing, pain-loving, then clingy and coquettish, big-chested gray Samoyed Sentinel top x a wealthy peregrine falcon Guide bottom who is gentle only with his dog
①
The day the typhoon hit, Jiang Qinyi found an unconscious Sentinel at his doorstep.
This was the third time Jiang Qinyi had seen him since moving to this area. The first two times, the Sentinel had been curled up in that filthy alley, helping the customers.
The Sentinel was thin, with a rare gray Samoyed as his spirit animal. His rank was low, and he couldn't retract his fluffy ears and tail. His watery eyes were always somewhat dull and unfocused, making him look fragile and breakable.
Before, Jiang Qinyi had only ever glanced at him and looked away. This was the first time in ages he'd observed him up close.
The Sentinel was very pretty, with a delicate beauty mark beneath the corner of one eye. His body was extremely thin, as if he hadn't had a proper meal in a long time. His skin was unnaturally pale, and he was soaked through. His fluffy gray ears and tail were smeared with dirty, muddy water.
His thin clothes, soaked through by the rain, clung to his body and turned almost transparent, revealing scattered marks that had yet to fade on his snow-white skin. The Sentinel was clearly freezing, his whole body trembling as he curled into a tiny ball in the corner.
Jiang Qinyi was silent for a long while. Then, in a rare act of kindness, he took the man home.

Yun Yu woke up in soft bedding, confused. His fluffy little ears drooped limply, and it took him a long time to realize that his surroundings had changed.
The clothes on him, so worn from washing that they were unrecognizable, had also been changed. He now wore an oversized shirt that barely covered his snow-white thighs.
The little dog finally realized that someone had taken him in.
He had thought he would fall asleep in the rain and never wake up.
Yun Yu got out of bed and carefully opened the door. He quickly spotted the man eating in the living room.
The air was filled with the aroma of food.
Yun Yu swallowed. He hadn't eaten in a long time. The little dog didn't know whether he should go out, but then the man noticed him, and he slowly stepped outside.
The little dog had his first full meal since escaping and becoming a stray.
Yun Yu nervously clutched the hem of his shirt. He had no money to pay for the meal. The little dog thought it over, then decided to repay his benefactor another way.
He raised his hands and willingly wrapped them around the Guide's neck, placing his fluffy dog ears in the Guide's hands so he could pet them.

Jiang Qinyi had been observing this Samoyed Sentinel for a while.
The Sentinel seemed to have been specifically taught to believe that food didn't just appear out of nowhere. If he wanted something, he had to give something in return.
He was very silly. All it took was a little food for him to become overwhelmingly grateful, his fluffy tail wagging at once as he constantly tried to offer himself in return.
If Jiang Qinyi was even a little kind to him, he would stare at him in flustered disbelief with those watery eyes, stammering out his thanks over and over.
At night, he would even crawl into a human's bed on his own, hugging his fluffy tail and letting the human do whatever he wanted.

Yun Yu thought the Guide who had taken him in was a little strange. Every time, he wanted to thank the Guide the same way he had other people, but the Guide would only rub his tail, fasten his shirt buttons, and tuck him into a warm bed.
The little dog couldn't understand. He thought he simply wasn't to the Guide's liking. But he had no money, and no other way to repay him.
The little dog anxiously bit the bent knuckle of his finger. He was terrified of being thrown out. The anxious little dog began secretly hiding twice as much food, so that if he was kicked out, he would be able to last a few more days.

Recently, Jiang Qinyi kept finding food the little dog had secretly stashed in various inconspicuous corners of the house. The Guide knew he hadn't let the little dog go hungry, but the little dog still hoarded food like a hamster, as if someone might cut off his supply at any moment.
Jiang Qinyi saw Yun Yu sneak out of bed in the middle of the night, barefoot, and crouch in the corner of the bedroom to dig out the snacks he'd hidden. He carefully counted them one by one, then cautiously hid them away again.
From that day on, Jiang Qinyi gave Yun Yu many more snacks. The silly little dog had no idea his secret was completely exposed. He hugged his newly acquired snacks and wagged his big tail excitedly, spinning around on the spot like a real dog, holding a celebration ritual all his own.
That night, even the little dog's dreams were sweet. Even his mumbling words in his sleep were full of joy and delight.
1. The top is not a virgin, happy ending. Yun Yu is the top, Jiang Qinyi is the bottom.
2. The dog is always the top, no matter who he's with. No switching or bottoming. The top is weak in bed.
3. No secondary couples, but there is top-on-top intimacy. Before the top and bottom become a couple, there is some more explicit top-on-top intimacy, meaning kissing and rubbing each other's nipples.
4. The bottom falls in love first. The top gets pregnant later. The top is male and does not switch or bottom. It's a psychic pregnancy, based on the author's setting that merging psychic powers can lead to pregnancy. The child is raised in their psychic space.
5. After becoming pregnant, the only physical change is that his breasts produce milk. There are no other changes.
6. This is a story about a self-conscious, silly stray dog who is taken in and spoiled until he becomes a sweet little darling.
