What did I see?
I rubbed my eyes to make sure I didn't see anything wrong.
This dog, barking like a puppy and wagging his tail like the tail is an electric fan, was rounding his two eyes as I aggrieved his feeling.
You are telling me this is the one who just killed a bunch of coyotes?
Plus, did I receive the right signal?
Is this enormous beast ingratiating himself with me?
While wagging his whirlwind tail, the giant was tentatively trying to walk closer, with his nose crinkled, as if he was smelling me.
For the sake of him trying so hard to express his kindness and harmlessness, I can't help considering patting this fluffy big dog. Outstretching my hands in welcome with my fingers spread, I started to greet him:
"Good boy. Come here, let me pat you."
Wow, his big eyes are sparking!
Can this animal really understand what I just said?
Under my skilful scratch, the giant beast lying near the campfire with his head putting on my knees. He looked so comfortable that his tongue came out of his mouth, and his saliva was about to drop.
If ignoring that his head is triple bigger than a real dog's head, I might genuinely treat him as a giant Shiba Inu, even now I start to think he is adorable!
Yes, I do know he can certainly kill me in seconds by tucking half of my head into his mouth in one bite. However, can you imagine a huge fluffy dog wagging his tail so friendly and looking at you with his bright eyes — I can't reject him!
"What kind of animal are you, big boy? And why are you here?"
...
"Oh, I saw your pouch, so you are a girl instead of a boy? I am sorry..."
"Do you like me?"
"Thank you for saving me!"
...
"Do you have any other partners?"
"Could you please stay with me till dawn cause I am scared?"
...
Sitting next to that warm and fluffy body and rubbing her furry head while talking to her, I finally felt my fears gradually rub off.
I want to give this cute dog a big hug and kiss her.
Is that okay?
Moving forward my body, I gently opened my arms, throwing the arms around her neck, and put my head on her fleecy head. It is indeed a bit dangerous to expose my Achilles heel to her mouth rashly. However, since we have already trusted each other, it might not be a big deal.
Last but not least, I deeply needed a cuddle after experiencing a life-and-death crisis.
To forget my dilemma for the moment, I was about to close my eyes for some time, a flash appears. Then the touch of my hands changed, within just one blink.
What?!
...
Why is it like I am touching someone's smooth skin???
Aren't I hugging the beast's neck?
How did it become a human's neck?
It's a foreign male, sitting on the grass next to me and looking at me with a shy blushed face, COMPLETELY NAKED.
After giving me a twinkle smile, he began to speak in a fruity voice:
"I feel so happy and comfy when you touch me! You're amazing!"
"Pleeeease don't stop touching me!"
"I want more!"
...
WHAT THE HELL?!
He can speak Mandarin?!
It is a real human?!
Oh my god!
A big wolf can shift into a human being!
...
OH!!! My eyes!
I saw something I shouldn't have seen!
Besides, please don't use that strange word. I was just patting you, not touching you, that sounds erotic!
I didn't do anything to you, man!
Suddenly tingled with shock, I immediately dropped my hands, jerked back, and almost fell backward. The naked man caught me in a flash and held me in his arms, and then lower his head and took a deep inhale.
"You smell sooo good! I really like you!"
???
Are you insane, dude?
I didn't wash my hair for at least two days!
...No, that's not the point.
So he is the beast before, right?
How can he shift into a human being?
...Wait.
If I didn't make a mistake, he has a pouch!
Nevertheless...
I did see a big eggplant between his legs...
That should not be my illusion, and although his voice is not gravelly, it is a clear silvery grown-up man's tone.
So — what is going on here?!
Shouldn't a pouch appear on the female animals?
Is the beast he or she? Or is he a bisexual person?
Are beasts all bisexual animals?
It is confusing, and I am curious.
Freed myself from his arms, I began to observe this beast-man thoroughly — the light yellow fluffy half-long hair just covers his ears, and the clear jawline and defined cheekbones make his face looks like Leonardo Dicaprio in his 20s. His warm almond-shaped amber eyes are shining gold under the light of the campfire, I can see an obvious Adam's apple, and his chest muscles are well developed.
Keep looking down...
No, I can't, let me just ask.
"Are you a beast-man and are you a male?"
" Yes, and yes. My name is Kruger, a thylacine beast-man."
"There are only males among us. "
"It might be a little brusque, however... I am sorry but I can't help to ask... Do you have a pouch on your animal form?"
"You noticed my pouch?" He nodded with a smile, redness still on his face. Kruger touches the backside of his head, "Yes, we do have pouches. Unlike the normal animals, beast-man needs to undertake the responsibilities of childcare..."
So the beast is a true male mother!
AMAZING!
The thylacines in reality:
They are also known as the Tasmanian tiger. But they don’t relatively look like the beast I set in this story — the giant is fluffy with a tiger tail instead of a kangaroo tail.
The thylacine was once widely distributed in the rainforest of New Guinea and Australia, it was the largest carnivorous marsupial in modern times.
After being hunted by humans, it is now extinct.
