Bridget asked with confusion, "What's the matter?"Clara, tasked with caring for his young wolf, bowed nervously to her leader and stammered, "My leader, I was dressing your pet's wounds... but for some reason, it suddenly started howling…”Bridget frowned and quickly approached the wolf pup. Sitting down gently, his typically cold, golden eyes softened upon contact with the tiny, fluffy creature. His large, calloused hand lightly touched the cringing pup, stroking it very gently. However, it seemed the young wolf was not accustomed to being touched, so it tensed up, turning its small body to warily regard him.…There was something endearing about it.Bridget smiled, smoothing the pup's furry little head that was close to his hand."Ah!" Bridget's finger throbbed, and he looked down to see that the ungrateful wolf had bitten him. Truly ungrateful indeed.He was the most ruthless leader of the North, never before had any creature dared to defy him like this. If it had been anyone else,
After the day Layla heard the news that the Western territory had changed hands, time seemed to fly by, and before she knew it, the night of the full moon had arrived.She lay on Bridget's shoulder, appearing lazy but her eyes vigilantly observing her surroundings.Groups of fierce werewolves were seriously patrolling their territory. This tense atmosphere reminded Layla of rumors about this cold land.Unlike the peaceful Western territories, during the full moon, the Western werewolves held noisy festivals. At these times, single werewolves sought partners for passionate, fiery nights.Indeed, the Western tribe was unrestrained and lacked self-control. Hence, her father, the tribe leader Baron, had repeatedly warned his subordinates. He said: "We are warriors, our duty is to stay alert, not to indulge in desires."Her father constantly trained the werewolf warriors, rotating them between guarding and hunting duties.However, in the eyes of the elders of the tribe, her father's effort
Layla looked at the dark scenery outside the window, which was actually just a small hole in the cave wall. It couldn't be compared to a normal house window like those in the Western tribe, but at least it allowed for ventilation and a view of the distant sky.From the window, she could smell the strong scent of blood wafting in from outside. It was very pungent.This confirmed her suspicion. On full moon nights, the animals of the North went berserk and attacked the tribe living here.But why? She hadn't heard of such a problem in the Eastern or Southern regions. It could be that those areas were hiding it like the Northern tribe, or it might be that only the North experienced this issue.There were two possibilities: one, something about the Northern territory made this unique situation occur; two, the Western territory had something that protected it from these full moon attacks, so she had never known about it from childhood to adulthood.If possible, she thought she might investi
Chapter 7: The Illogical MadmanBridget shook her head in exasperation. The troublesome elders called him a madman, which he initially ignored, but now, reflecting on it, he realized it was indeed abnormal!Frustrated, he turned back towards his den. He had no reason to change himself just to please a small, pampered pet!After a few steps, he stopped. No! He was really dirty! Sleeping with such a filthy body would affect his sleep! This was a serious issue for him! It had absolutely nothing to do with the little wolf!!!With that thought, Bridget gritted his teeth and turned towards the water.Oni, busy cleaning up nearby, was rendered speechless by his leader's pacing. A sun-tanned man with fiery red hair approached him, whispering, "My friend, is our leader... in heat?"Oni glanced at the second lead scout, one of the leader's closest confidants, and his disdainful look confused the red-haired man. Puzzled, the man asked, "What's happening?"Oni tersely replied, "Mind your own busi
Bridget coldly left the two elders behind, then gently embraced his small, pitiful wolf.Before leaving, he glanced at the two elderly men lying face down behind him as a warning. His gaze was filled with a bloody aura.The elders lay in silent fear, waiting for their leader to leave. Only when they no longer felt any threat did they start to vent their anger."Damn it! That half-breed kid dared to insult us!!!"The elder with long hair slowly stood up, causing his companion to feel a bit of injustice. "Paul! Aren't you angry?!"The long-haired elder didn't reply, but his dark, hate-filled face was enough to show his fury.However, he knew that some things required a clear plan, or else he, not the brash young leader, would be the one to die. He was a man of intellect, not a brute like Elder Linn who only knew violence without thought.Paul struggled towards the tribe. He wanted to return quickly, lest others see his dirty state and the opposing elders mock him relentlessly!Bridget!
The process of bathing a person and a wolf was quite challenging, but it finally came to an end.By the time Bridget took her little wolf away from the lake, a significant amount of time had passed, and the night sky was gradually brightening, signaling the start of a new day.Layla lay despondently in the arms of the man who always claimed to be her owner. She felt that she had now transformed into a wolf, with nothing left to lament!She glanced irritably at the handsome face of the man, feeling an urge to bite his neck. However, as a small wolf like her, she no longer had the strength to do so. She swore! If she had the chance to return to human form, she would definitely give him a good beating!!!Moreover, she would absolutely not let anyone know about today's events! She would lose face if discovered!Perhaps her intense gaze was too fierce, which made Bridget lower his head to look at the little wolf in his arms, noticing the pet staring intensely at him. Bridget gently smiled
The team led by Bridget himself consisted of individuals he had brought back and trained from scratch, all tamed by his strength and madness. Thus, they turned a blind eye to every action of Bridget, even if their leader's affection for a pet seemed unusually intense… but that was their leader! The strongest among them! A few peculiar hobbies mattered little to them!Therefore, those training beside could only sigh to the heavens and earth, daring not to voice their opinions in front of their leader. However, others did not share this sentiment.From a distance, a figure watched the entire process with resentment. A face hidden in the shadows twisted like a demon, incessantly staring at Bridget and the young wolf.…Layla, exhausted, lay sprawled, indifferent to the rough hands of the man claiming to be her owner as he casually stroked her head. Even her resistance could change nothing! But suddenly, she felt as if something was watching her, like the intense gaze of a predator eyeing
"Grrr!" Layla struggled slightly, clearly expressing her displeasure at being carried in such a manner."Ungrateful pup, I am your master!" Bridget chuckled lightly, swaying the hand that held Layla's neck, causing the small wolf's body to swing like a pendulum in a grandfather clock.Layla was furious enough to bristle, although her body was now just a small clump of fur. But she was still a proud and mighty wolf! Why did this detestable person show no respect for a magnificent creature like her!Of course, she completely forgot that in Bridget's eyes, she was just a wolf devoid of spiritual sense and shapeshifting power. To this world, ordinary creatures were the lowest, the very bottom of the food chain.Bridget failed to see the dissatisfaction in the young wolf's eyes. He carefully held his pet close and headed towards his tribe.The werewolf warriors cheerfully used their claws to slice the prey they had just brought down, then divided it among themselves. They split into two gro
