The sight of the tiny, helpless puppies being carried off by the monkeys sent a wave of dread through him. Where were these monkeys taking them? And why? Questions swirled in his mind, but the perturbing scene unfolding before him was too much to process.
He couldn’t bear the thought of what might happen next. Every instinct screamed at him to intervene, but uncertainty held him frozen, his mind racing with horrible possibilities. The image of the monkey darting away with the squirming puppy seemed almost surreal against the backdrop of the otherwise serene temple.
