40 My Parents’ Wolves
Selma Payne’s POV:
Aldrich was silent for a long time until the car stopped. He then asked me hesitantly, “Do you want to see mine? If you’re curious about werewolves.”
“Of course, I am very interested in my boyfriend.”
He squinted and looked at me seriously. “Wow, miss, you need to think about what you said. I’m your boyfriend.”
I was so happy that I couldn’t stop. “What’s the difference? You and your wolf are one.”
“No, no, this is completely different. You only belong to me.” He looked angry. Although I didn’t want to say it, I wondered every day how I could like my boyfriend so much.
But this time, he seemed angry for real. He wasn’t smiling at all. He pursed his lips tightly and looked at the other side of the road.
“Alright, don’t be angry. You’re my only boyfriend.” I shook his arm and said coyly.
“I will never be angry with you. You are the person I love the most.” He turned to look at me and repeated, “I love you.”
I put my arms around his neck and kissed him. “I love you too.”
I’d never been so sure about this and never liked someone so much. My heart beat fast when I looked at him. Other than his handsome face and strong body, he also had a character that made people feel at ease. Although sometimes it was annoying, compared to hating him, I couldn’t help but forgive him for what he had done the first time I met him.
“I thought you were outraged. You looked so furious just now.” I pouted and complained to him.
“Weren’t you the one who wanted to make me angry?” Aldrich touched my nose. “In the end, you still feel wronged. I will never, ever be angry. I promise.”
“So, when are we going to see your wolf? I can’t wait.”
Aldrich disagreed immediately but said, “I think waiting until your wolf is awake will be a good time. Then, you will know who your boyfriend is.”
I pouted and reluctantly waved goodbye to him. Before we left, we kissed each other deeply. The brilliance in his eyes was so charming, but our relationship couldn’t be revealed for the time being. I hoped that this day would come soon. I couldn’t wait to tell everyone that he was my boyfriend.
I watched as he drove away. Finally, I turned around and left as well. Although we couldn’t meet tomorrow, we could chat on the phone. Besides, I couldn’t wait to see my parents’ wolves tomorrow.
The next day, my parents brought me to the forest’s edge as promised. But, again, I felt the blood in my body boiling. I couldn’t believe I could see a werewolf’s transformation with my own eyes and that I could become one of them.
Their limbs gradually elongated, and their muscles became more apparent. Pure white fur grew on their bodies, and their eyes became sharp vertical pupils. Cold teeth grew from their elongated jaws. I believed that no one would try to explore how terrifying these sharp teeth were. Finally, their hands turned into claws, looking majestic and terrifying.
“Hello, Daughter,” my father’s wolf said.
I jumped in shock. I thought wolves couldn’t even speak.
“Normal wolves can’t talk, but we’re different,” my mother’s wolf explained. Her voice was deeper than when she was in her human form and sounded more majestic.
“Will I be like you in the future?” I looked at them in a daze. If my wolf were like this, it would be so cool. I would be the coolest wolf in the world.
“Of course, baby. You have the same blood as us. You will become a better person than us,” my father’s wolf said proudly.
“We’ve been waiting for this day since you were born.” My mother’s wolf said sadly, “I thought I would never see it again.”
My father’s wolf gently wiped the tears from my mother wolf’s face. “Alright, Irene, let’s not talk about these sad things. It’s all in the past.
“By the way, little guy, my name is Pymon, and this is Irene. We’re delighted to see you.” My father’s wolf tried to make his noble face not look so fierce, but he failed. Instead, his stiff smile made him look even more terrifying.
Oh my god, I hoped my wolf would wake up sooner. I’d never looked forward to it so much. Couldn’t the days pass faster?

I hoped that everything would come true in the next second, that my wolf would wake up, that my parents would announce my identity to the whole country, that I could take my relationship with Aldrich a step further, and that I might be able to muster up the courage to return to my previous ‘pack’, and proudly show it to my adoptive parents and brother.
“Let’s go, darling. Let’s go for a walk.” My parents came back after tidying up their clothes. They looked the same as usual. Looking at them now, no one could imagine how terrifying they were when they turned into their wolf forms.
I hoped that my transformation would be completed soon.
