2 Moons - Fairy tales Slashed

CH 68 - A husband to catch. Part 2

Kit POV

"How do we deal with that?" I ask Ming.

"It's not my first-time P'Kit; I've dealt with a full pack before."

"When the hell was that?" I snap quietly behind him.

The hound sees us and growls; it sniffs the air before heading straight for us. We should defiantly run! Ming moves me out of the way when the head comes near us, the beast whines as it tries again. It's trying to eat Ming!

"Hide behind the tree p."

"What..."

"Right now." Ming's voice is serious.

I want to say something but the look on his face makes me listen. It's not over Ming Kwan; we will have words about this, ordering me around when I was the older one. My heart nearly stops beating when I see the huge thing take a swipe at Ming, but he moves out of the way with ease.

I see Ming moving quickly dodging a few more swipes getting close. Why go closer? Ming looks determined, but the beast sniffs the air and heads for me, I try to make for the trees but stop in my tracks when I hear a small meow. The beast wasn't going for me it was going for the basket.

I dive and manage to save the kitten, I yell when the thing comes at us. Ming is there, standing in front of me with his shield in place, how did he move so fast?

"Pookie stop!" Ming yells.

Did he just call that hellhound...Pookie? The hellhound sniffs the air and heads for Ming, I try pulling him back but he smiles at me.

"POOKIE??" Was that a strange echo?

"I went to check, he has a collar."

"So?" Who cares, we should be running!

"I know him."

It's a beast from hell, no one knows them! You see one, you run! After all the things you read Ming how can you not know this? A huge head nuzzles Ming's chest, sniffing happily as Ming scratches its ear and laughs.

"He was a pup last time I saw him." Ming smiles at me. "He wants the apples."

"Not the kitten?" I ask clutching the tiny ball of fur close.

"He's a vegetarian." Ming laughs. "We talked about this before, no taking animals."

The hound whines like a huge house size puppy. It, Pookie sits obediently eating the apples as Ming takes a bell...it really did have a collar. Ming rings the bell three times and a portal opens. A demoness walks through, hair in curlers, wearing a nighty and looking annoyed.

"What's going on?"

"My apologies for calling you so late." Ming bows.

"Ming?" The demon lady smiles. "Good to see you, dear."

Was there anyone in the kingdom that didn't know my husband and wasn't in love with him?

"Did my Pookie bother someone?" She sighs.

Hell yes lady, he made me have a fight with my husband! You should be a responsible owner and watch your pet! Ming explains what's been happening, she isn't happy with the puppy and scolds him.

"He gets lonely." Then she finally sees me.

Her eyes go wide; she takes a deep breath and clutches her chest. And squeal's like a little girl before jumping up and down. This was a demoness with a hellhound... or a five-year-old on a sugar high?
