7 Call me Junshik Hyung

"I'll let you stay for one week, and that's it. You can leave after a week."

That word was like a breath of fresh air for Pomeranian Alpheus because he didn't expect the lord of the house to finally soften up for him.

'Hehe, it's okay! Sir might only let me stay for one week, then I can show more trick, and he'll extend my stay to one month, then one year, and then forever, MUAHAHAHA!'

Cha Junshik watched the Werepom, who seemed to be making a grinning devilish expression. Maybe it was just his imagination though, this dog was kinda stupid after all.

"Thank you, Sir! Thank you for your kindness! Alphie will work hard not to get in your way of being a lord!"

What lord anyway? He was just a regular university student who secretly worked as a BJ.

"You, don't call me Sir anymore. I have a name," Junshik said. "My name is Cha Junshik, remember that."

"Cha… Junshik… Cha… Junshik…" Alpheus repeated that a few times to put that in his forgetful brain. After he made sure that he would remember that name, he said, "Sir, I remember now, Sir Cha Junshik!"

"No, no, don't add that, Sir, just call me Cha Junshik—Wait, how old are you?"

"Me? I'm turning 19 this year, Sir Cha Junshik!"

"Then you must call me Junshik Hyung."

"Junshik Hyung… is that your honorary title, Sir?" Pomeranian Alpheus tilted his head full of confusion. This was the first time for him to hear a strange name and even a stranger honorary title.

As Lycan family, he knew titles like Alpha for male and Luna for female as the leader, just like how his late father was an Alpha and his mother was a Luna before him.

But Hyung? That was a new one!

"That's not an honorary title," Junshik sighed. "In this country, Hyung means big brother. Since you're younger than me, then you should call me Hyung."

"Uwaaa… does that mean Sir Cha Junshik Hyung has taken me as your sworn brother? Sir, this is such an honor! I didn't expect that my tricks really impress you! Should we start by doing the first ritual of sworn brotherhood?"

"What? It's just a name call. Besides, why would I become the sworn brother of a Werepom? What's the use of it?" Junshik shot the excited Pomeranian down.

"Uuurf… Okay then…" Alpheus' dog ears drooped down, but he didn't want to get sad for too long. He had expected that Sir Cha Junshik Hyung wasn't someone who would accept him so easily. He had to prove himself!

Alpheus had always been taught how to work hard to achieve something, so he would get respect from Sir Cha Junshik Hyung!

Ah, now he missed his late family…

Cha Junshik could see a variety of expressions in that Werepom's face, from sad to happy, determined, and then sad again. It made him wonder what kind of thoughts happening inside that Werepom's head.

"What will you do for that first ritual of becoming a sworn brother with a… Werewolf anyway?"

"I am from the Lycan family, Sir! We start our first sworn brother ritual by sniffing each other butt! It's a very sacred ritual, Sir!"

…

'I thought it would be a lot cooler than that. So it's basically dog ritual….'

"Sir, are you interested in being my sworn brother?" Werepom Alpheus asked, full of expectation. He never had a sworn brother in his life before. In fact, he never had a friend in his kingdom as well, so for someone willing to talk with him, let alone creating a sworn brother pact with him, it was such an honor!

"No, not at all," Cha Junshik rejected that offer for the second time.

"Wuuu… okay…"

Cha Junshik sighed, "Don't act too close to me. Remember, I only give you one week at most to stay with me. I don't plan to let you stay for too long, understand?"

"Yes, Sir!"

'Huh, he is surprisingly accepting of my one-week stay rule… suspicious….' Junshik squinted full of suspicion at the tongue-sticking-out Pomeranian, who tilted his head left and right like an idiot.

'Hehe, I will show more tricks later on! So I can stay even longer!' Alpheus schemed.

"Okay, just call me Junshik Hyung from now on—until next week, of course."

"Yes, Sir Cha Junshik Hyung!"

"Just… Junshik Hyung," Junshik felt that he was teaching a real talking dog just to call his name correctly.

"Yes! Sir Junshik Hyung!"

"…"

"You can call me whatever," Junshik said. He took another deep breath and laid on the bed. He picked Alpheus when he begged to be picked up.

He thought Alpheus would sleep near his feet like a dog, but he suddenly jumped on Junshik's chest.

"W—Wha! What are you doing on my chest!?" Junshik reacted.

"Ah, I'm going to sleep here Sir, your chest is so warm. I like it!"
