Just as Sunakaburi was almost killed by slave traders, he was saved by a snow leopard, the Beast King. Sunakaburi, who did not belong because of his different fur colour, was told by the king that he was his “destined mate”, and was given beautiful clothes, a soft bed to sleep in, and delicious food to eat instead of leftovers. The king even gave Sunakaburi a lovely name, “Kouran”. Overjoyed, Kouran wants to be of use to the king, but Kouran doesn’t really know what a “destined mate” is…

Taro is sent to the forest alone. He's a sacrifice for the monstrous wolf, Uru. Upon seeing him, Uru declares Taro too small and too thin. The wolf feeds him, clothes him, and cares for him. Time passes and Taro finds himself wanting to be devoured by this giant wolf who gives him nothing but affection.
