I glanced at the dining table and asked, "What about Lucky's food?"
He froze for a moment, then realized I was talking about the Labrador, and his fur stood on end.
"You want me to cook for the dog!? That lowly species doesn't deserve for me to cook for it!"
"Would it even dare to eat what I make?"
I:"...Will you cook or not?"
He fell silent for a moment, then walked up to me and squatted down.
He let his ears and tail hang loose, fluffy and swaying, trying to entice me."Just get rid of it and continue to keep me, okay?"
"Look, my fur's denser, softer, and I'm more obedient. Plus, I can make money, and all of it will go to you."
"Keep me. Just keep me alone, please?"
His paw—ah, no, his hand—rested on my knee, his elongated wolf eyes wide in a deliberately exaggerated, adorable attempt to soften my heart.
In that moment, I recalled the information I had found about Edmund Montague, the youngest heir of the Montague family.
He was good-looking, from a noble family, a born elite. Even in the few publicly available photos, he exuded an aura of superiority and elegance.
Anyway, he was completely different from the wolf in front of me, who was acting spoiled and pitiful.
I fell silent for a moment, about to say something, when the doorbell rang, accompanied by a man's clear voice:
"Charlotte, are you home?"
It took me a moment to realize it was a colleague who lived upstairs, also a dog lover. We had agreed to take the dogs out together today.
I glanced down.
The werewolf's tail was taut, and his eyes were filled with a blood-red intensity.
When he saw my gaze, he smiled faintly, hiding the predatory fierceness typical of carnivores. Softly, he asked,
"Charlotte, should I help you chase that bad man away?"
