[Bottom's perspective, despite the title being from the top's perspective. Couldn't think of anything better.]
Xiao Ge'ou had lost his memory.
When he woke up, he learned that he'd been in a car accident. The doctor asked him to call a family member. He searched through his phone and found just one contact.
Lu Yu (saved as: Father)
His social circle sure was tiny. Grumbling to himself, Xiao Ge'ou called.
"...I'll be right there." The voice on the other end was hoarse, as if he hadn't spoken in a long time.
--That was a little strange.
·
Lu Yu arrived soon. He had broad shoulders and a slim waist, and his face was a little pale. He looked no more than ten years older than Xiao Ge'ou.
The doctor asked, "What's your relationship to the patient?"
Lu Yu answered seriously, "I'm his owner."
The doctor fell silent for three seconds.
So Lu Yu added, "He's my dog."
Everyone in the hospital room turned to look.
--That was very strange!
·
Xiao Ge'ou hurried to drag this lunatic out of the hospital before he died of embarrassment.
After he was discharged, Lu Yu took him back to a... castle. Everything there felt familiar, but how could a college student who'd just graduated afford such an expensive place?
The first two days passed peacefully.
Then strange things started happening. In the middle of the night, he woke from a dream to find someone pressing down on him. Cold hands slipped under his pajamas and gripped his waist tightly. Breath brushed his ear, and before he could fully wake, pain pierced his neck!
But it wasn't just pain. There was something else, too...
It was as if...
As if he belonged to Lu Yu, as if he had always been Lu Yu's obedient dog, and every inch of his skin was screaming in celebration at being claimed by his owner...
--No, this was way too strange!!
·
Xiao Ge'ou suddenly came to his senses and shoved Lu Yu away, nearly jumping out of bed.
Moonlight streamed into the room, revealing a trace of blood at the corner of Lu Yu's mouth. Lu Yu had really bitten him hard enough to draw blood!
Xiao Ge'ou clutched his injured neck and laughed in anger.
He hurled every curse word he could remember at Lu Yu.
Lu Yu watched him quietly. Even as Xiao Ge'ou's face flushed with anger, he didn't seem upset.
"...You actually dare to talk to me like that?" Lu Yu asked, sounding puzzled.
·
"...It's like this, Ancestor. Now that the contract has expired, he can do more than talk back to you. He can even attack you. Since he's lost his memory, I recommend letting him go..."
"No." Lu Yu abruptly interrupted the staff member. "I'm his owner. He can't leave me."
The other person wisely didn't argue.
"It can't be helped. We live in modern times now. When slavery contracts were outlawed, you were still asleep--"
The temperature around them suddenly dropped.
Lu Yu glared at him, his killing intent palpable.
"--But, but there are still legal contracts that can be enforced. You just want to keep your frie--your pet with you, right? There is a way!"
"What way?" Lu Yu finally softened his gaze and asked.
"M-marriage..."
·
After going out, Lu Yu came home acting completely out of character, treating him with great care and preparing plenty of gifts for him.
He was probably trying to apologize.
"Is there something you want to tell me?" Xiao Ge'ou grumbled.
"Yes. Actually, I lied to you earlier." Lu Yu paused, then said,
"You see, I'm actually your... husband."
Xiao Ge'ou: "..."
...Did Lu Yu expect him to believe that ridiculous story??
1. A gentle, old-fashioned, controlling vampire ancestor top (owner) x a cheerful, ordinary, amnesiac werewolf celebrity bottom (puppy). Career is 10% of the story. This isn't a traditional showbiz novel; I'll keep one or two things under wraps.
2. A beloved owner and his "adorable" puppy. They end up as equals in a happy ending.
3. I'll write ahead and add more once the other work is finished.
Theme: Care for the elderly who live alone.
