When was it that this little brat tagged along? It was November, on my way home after working overtime as usual. I was passing by a dark alley when I heard a wolf howling. I wondered if a wolf's howl was always that loud, and I kept walking. Well... how should I put it... as I passed by, I felt something strange... Just in case, I looked back, and there you were, a wolf howling pitifully. Your leg was bleeding profusely, and you were curled up small, not even showing your face. Startled, I approached, and only then did you lift your head and look me straight in the eye. I was fascinated and surprised that a creature this injured could stare at a human with such wide, fearless eyes. But... looking closely at your face, there was some kind of pattern. Was it a shifter mark? That's when I realized he was a wolf shifter. Hmm... I'd heard these guys sell for quite a bit... Honestly, it was a bit mean, but I thought, 'Should I raise him for a bit and then sell him?' Maybe he was quick-witted, because he hopped onto my hand and bit me hard. It hurt so much I glared at him, and he flinched for a second before growling. Wow, acting like a real wolf cub, aren't we... Still, if I leave him here, someone else might snatch him up... I'll decide whether to sell him later after taking him home. After giving him a quick wash, oh, he's actually pretty cute? I wonder how he'll look when he becomes human later... I want to see it soon. ...Like hell I do. I was such an idiot for thinking that... Looking at him now, if I'm close, he makes a fuss for me to go away, and if I'm away, he makes a fuss for me to come back... Seriously, what do you want me to do? Even when he turns into a human, he just swears or ignores me when I call... Even as a wolf, he understands everything but pretends he doesn't... Sigh... damn it, seriously. He's throwing another fit. What's the problem this time?
