He pawed the ground with his forelimb and eyed me meaningfully.
I figured he was trying to tell me to turn into my wolf form.
Under his watchful eyes, I turned into a wolf. As soon as I transformed, I couldn’t help but stretch my claws out and shake the fur on my body. It had been a while since I had turned into a wolf, and I wanted a good stretch.
All of a sudden, I had the sudden impulse to scream. I suppressed the impulse and steadied myself carefully.
Only then did I find that the giant wolf was staring at the top of my head expressionlessly, which made Yana and I feel extremely uneasy.
“Is he secretly laughing at my red hair?” Yana whimpered, feeling very aggrieved. “We’re both white wolves dotted with red hair. But why does it look so good on him? Whereas I only have speckles of red hair on my head, which makes me look like a fool.”
“Weren’t you fond of the red hair before?” I pointed out. “You don’t look like a fool at all. It’s so cool! I love it!”
“There was no one else to compare it to before…” Yana whispered anxiously. “Now I feel like I’m a joke.”
“Don’t say that, Yana. Although you have similar hair colors, your styles are different. He’s handsome, while you’re cute!”
Upon being called “cute”, Yana cheered up instantly. “You’re right! Our styles are different, so we can’t be compared.”
Just then, the giant wolf turned around and stepped into the forbidden forest. His aura was cold and domineering.
“Hurry up and follow him,” I reminded Yana urgently.
Yana obediently followed the giant wolf, trotting behind him gracefully.
The giant wolf trudged on for a while until it was well into the periphery of the forbidden forest. It turned its head to look at Yana, and then suddenly sprinted away.
It took me a split second to realize that Leonard wanted to test my speed.
I couldn’t help but groan internally. Even Leonard’s wolf liked to take others by surprise.
But I was confident in Yana. Back in school, my speed was unmatched.
Yana was so excited that she howled, “I haven’t run in a forest for a long time!”
It didn’t take long before the giant wolf disappeared among the trees.
Yana did her best to keep up with Leonard’s wolf, bounding towards the giant beast like a thin streak of lightning. However, it wasn’t as easy as I thought.
The giant wolf was so fast that Yana could barely keep up.
“He is too fast!” Yana shrieked, completely out of breath. “Compared to him, I feel like a snail!”
As though it read Yana’s mind, the giant wolf gradually slowed down. Seeing this, Yana exerted one last burst of energy to close the gap between them.
Just as Yana got close, the giant wolf turned its head and gave her a contemptuous look. The next second, the giant wolf picked up its speed again, leaving Yana in the dust.
Both Yana and I were shocked. Before now, we were proud of our speed. Little did we know that we were nothing compared to this giant wolf.
“This can’t be! I have to catch up with him!” Yana gritted her teeth and raced forward as fast as she could.
But just when I thought she was finally going to catch up with the giant wolf, she was soon left behind again.
Yana was on the verge of breaking down. “Is he just playing with me?”
“Yana, don’t cry. You’re doing great!” I tried to encourage her, although I also felt at a loss.
Yana was so frustrated that she cried as she ran.
The giant wolf was not only fast but also very agile. It nimbly shuttled through the trees as though it knew the forbidden forest like it was the back of its hand.
I paid attention to the way the giant wolf made its way across the forbidden forest. Suddenly, a thought occurred to me.
“Yana, cheer up, okay? Look at how the giant wolf moves. Then, forget about me-temporarily, I mean.”
Perhaps only by fully unleashing our true nature could our instincts kick in…
Sylvia’s POV
“Huh?” Yana obviously didn’t understand what I meant.
But I didn’t say anything. I just quietly observed as Yana grew agitated.
She was so anxious that she started crying again. “Sylvia, tell me what to do!”
The giant wolf had almost disappeared from her sight. Yana felt the dangers of the forbidden forest closing in on her, and her voice began to tremble. “Sylvia, I’m scared. Something doesn’t feel right…”
Yana sobbed pitifully. “Sylvia, just talk to me. Please… I’m afraid…”
My heart ached, but I gritted my teeth and didn’t respond.
Suddenly, a deafening wolf howl pierced the gloominess, as though it was trying to guide Yana in the right direction.
Yana gritted her teeth and ran towards the sound of the howl. Gradually, she picked up in speed, like a real, wild wolf that was enjoying itself.
My soul was getting lighter and lighter. I gradually forgot all my woes and basked in the feeling of this newfound freedom.
Finally, I saw the figure of the giant wolf right ahead. It leaped and landed on the highest branch of a huge tree. Then it pointed its nose to the sky and howled. The ground shook from the sound waves and the previously restless forbidden forest suddenly quieted down. A hush fell over the forest, and even the wind had stopped.
The giant wolf’s fur shone under the sunlight. The way it perched on the branch exuded a domineering aura. At this moment, it looked like the king of the forest.
Seeing this, Yana grew excited. A surge of energy burst within her and she jumped onto the tree as well, although on a lower branch. Satisfied, she howled as the giant wolf did.
But the satisfaction didn’t last long. Yana then jumped again, landing right beside the giant wolf. She tilted her head and looked at the giant wolf happily, imitating the way he stood.
The giant wolf looked at her with approval. It raised its huge paw and patted Yana’s head gently.
