Beauty and the Beast AU

After the initial events of the cartoon...

You were in the living room by the fireplace, while Hua Cheng was sitting in his armchair, trying to lick the wounds received in the battle with the wolves that attacked you in the forest.

You soaked the rag in the water, carefully approaching him. "Now, don't growl..." you said. "Sit still." And touched his wound with a damp rag.

Hua growled, and his servants nearby hid in fear. "But it hurts!" he said loudly and angrily.
