"What do you want to name her?" Ren asked Fang.
"Snow," Fang replied immediately.
Ren laughed. "Good one," he told Fang. "Now let's take Snow shopping. We can get new toys for our little boys, too. They did well today, didn't they?"
Fang nodded and patted the two puppies and the kitten. The three fur babies nuzzled his hand for a while and then jumped at Ren, nestling comfortably in his arms.
Ren and Fang exchanged a helpless look. Then Fang quickly pulled out his mobile phone and took a picture of Ren. Without his jacket and tie, in his shirtsleeves, with messy hair (thanks to the puppies' earlier activities) and holding three little furballs in his arms with a doting parent expression - Ren was a feast for Fang's eyes. Determination rose within Fang to protect this precious man who had not only saved him, but also given him a new life and a love he could have only imagined in his dreams.
