Cry Wolf: My Family's Cruel Little Game のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

The next morning, one of Leah's hands had transformed into a wolf's paw. She couldn't change it back, no matter how hard she tried. Mom hadn't even taken off her apron before she rushed over and wrapped Leah in her arms. She immediately called for Dad.Dad ran outside to get the car, while Nolan called a healer.He instructed in a grave tone, "We're on our way. Please have an observation room ready."Just then, a faint stabbing pain started in my chest. I grabbed Leah's medical card and followed them into the car.The examination results showed a temporary shifting disorder triggered by alcohol. Leah's wolf wasn't endangered in any way. The healer said she just needed a few days of rest.Mom still wasn't reassured. She repeatedly asked whether it could happen again. Dad held Leah's hand, refusing even to let her reach for her own water. Nolan leaned over to adjust the pillow behind her.No one laughed at her for overreacting.I took the medication the healer had just prescribe

The next morning, Mom was spreading jam on Leah's toast when she asked offhandedly if she should save me some dinner.I said, "No need."Dad reminded me to text when I arrived. Then, he lowered his head and went back to reading the news.Nolan walked over and asked, "Where are you going?""Business trip," I said tersely.He assumed I was still upset and didn't try to persuade me otherwise. He only told me to let him know when I got back.As the taxi got onto the highway, Leah called. "Dad's hurt! He collapsed in the garage, and he won't respond no matter how much we call his name!"Dad's distress signal came through immediately afterward. I gripped my seat belt as a dull ache spread through my chest. The driver slowed down and asked if I wanted to turn around.I didn't answer. Instead, I asked Leah if she'd contacted a healer. A brief pause followed, then the sound of a chair scraping across the floor. A few seconds later, Dad said with a laugh, "Looks like she's finally ge

Leah had attached a photo of me taking medication at the clinic, along with screenshots of a few messages where I'd mentioned severing my blood telepathy with the family. She'd asked my employer to put my transfer on hold until my family came to get me.She ended her email with a glaring line. "Erin isn't listening to anyone right now. Please don't do anything that might upset her further."I stared at the photo for a while.So she'd been hiding behind the blanket and taking pictures of me without my knowledge that day. I never expected her to have captured that scene.Colin didn't rush to any conclusions. "Your transfer is done according to the proper procedures. What we need to verify is whether you require any medical support."I contacted my healer and asked him to provide a written statement. In reality, the medication was meant to relieve the heart palpitations caused by the blood telepathy. It had nothing to do with the condition Leah implied I had.The examination I'd u

I told Mom I wanted the cardboard box at the bottom of my closet. She asked if I wanted her to send the documents inside along with everything else.I said yes and reminded her that there was also a training log at the very bottom.A while later, she called me. "You got up at 5:00 am every day to train?"I was checking the list of new trainees and paused for a moment before realizing she was talking about the competition."I trained for two hours before work," I said."For how long?""Eight months."Mom didn't respond right away.I heard the sound of pages turning. The last entry in the training log was marked "Finals". Beside it was the departure time Nolan had helped me confirm. Everything after that was blank."Your father came home that day and said you were the fastest runner." Mom's voice was quiet. "He said you'd even given up the competition because family mattered more than anything else."I stopped typing. "I thought he was going to die."A soft thud came from the

Leah emailed me, demanding that I stop making our parents explain themselves to everyone. he said her friends now asked her about those videos whenever they saw her. Even the people who'd promised to go on a trip with her had stopped inviting her.She asked, displeased, "Are you only going to be satisfied when everyone thinks I'm a terrible person?"I replied that I didn't make up the facts. After receiving my message, she called me several times, but I didn't answer.On the third day, she asked Mom to video-call me. Mom told me she wanted to say a few things and asked if I was willing to listen.I said yes.Leah started crying as soon as she opened her mouth. "I already sent the clarification email to your employer, and I deleted the videos. What else do you want me to do?"I said, "Stop contacting my employer, and stop recording videos of family members pretending to be injured just to get me to come home.""I just wanted you to come back.""I already told you I wasn't comi
