After being diagnosed with a bizarre terminal illness, Shen Muyun’s life grew increasingly strange.

At first, it was the cadaveric spots appearing on his skin. The doctor said his internal organs were slowly rotting, melting away, and would eventually turn into a pool of fluid.

Then, inexplicable romantic attention began to multiply.

First, he received a disturbing love letter, its pages densely covered in blood-written “I love you”s.

Then, a coworker pursued him relentlessly.

After that, his newly hired assistant declared their affection, and his private doctor showed excessive care…

Even the neighbor’s large male dog waited by the door every day, staring eagerly for him to come home.

By day, prying gazes from all directions plagued him endlessly. By night, faceless, horrific monsters whispered their love and tangled with him through the long hours of darkness…

But what was even more incomprehensible was this:

Despite being a man who had been single for years, his belly was swelling day by day.

Clutching his writhing stomach, he frantically sought out friends to confide in, but received only sympathetic looks—as if no one could see the abnormality of his belly.

He had no choice but to visit his private doctor again and soon received the examination report, which read:

Four months pregnant. Fetus undetectable by ultrasound.

Gender unknown. Gestational age unknown. Species unknown…

He looked up in disbelief. The private doctor sitting across from him smiled faintly, his glasses reflecting the light, obscuring the obsession and madness in his eyes. In a gentle voice, he said, “Yunyun, don’t be afraid. Everything will be all right.”

· Non-human, obsessive and fanatical monster × deranged beautiful painter.
· There is no actual childbirth; it’s not a baby! Probably a sweet little story (?), not too long—just a side project for the author’s downtime.
· All the pursuers are the monster in disguise. There is no split personality, no physical splitting—pure acting. From start to finish, it’s all Him, including the dog.
· Whether in its original form, human form, or dog form, the male lead’s non-human nature is strong. Trigger warning for abnormality, trigger warning for Lovecraftian horror, trigger warning for obsessive love.
