A man with fluffy black ears atop his head and a swinging, long, black, furry tail burst into the villa with a cold and stern expression.
Holly Wyatt didn't know what was happening; though deaf and mute, she somehow heard the man's disdainful voice at that very moment.
[The cub has grown a little.]
[Still too weak.]
[How did she end up looking like this? So gaunt and scrawny, so unsightly. Standing there, she looks like a telephone pole—the shortest one, at that.]
Holly Wyatt: ...
She rubbed her fingertips together, staring at the tip of the man's tail that curled into a little heart shape, wanting to touch it...
*
Two years later.
Dressed in a camisole and hot pants, the moment she pulled open the main door, she heard the man's sharp, explosive inner shriek.
[Aaaah! Damn it! Who taught the cub to dress like this?! I was only gone for two years, where is my cub who used to be all bundled up?!]
[Give her back!!]
*
As the leader of the Wolf Clan, Silas Thornton's primary mission was to manage the pack, and his secondary mission was to raise the cub well.
One day, he discovered that the cub he was raising actually wanted to date! This meant the cub wanted to procreate!
That was unacceptable!
And so, Holly Wyatt could always hear the man's inner ramblings.
[The cub is still too young; she can't run off and procreate with some random man out there.]
[If the cub is really that desperate to procreate, I suppose I can reluctantly make a sacrifice.]
[Why doesn't the cub want to procreate yet? I'm already prepared.]
Holly Wyatt: !!?? Does this mean she can finally touch his big tail?

'Hmph! That human nanny and her son actually dared to make off with the money. They should have considered if they could handle the consequences! I was worried my cub wouldn't have enough, so I left her a hundred million, and they took every last cent! Fining them that little and sentencing them to just eleven years? It's way too light!!'


The magnetic stylus slipped from Holly Wyatt's hand, clattered onto the floor mat, and rolled to a stop by Silas Thornton's feet.


'Silas Thornton left her a hundred million when he was gone for two years?!'


She could barely hold onto her drawing tablet.


'She wouldn't be worth a hundred million even if you sold her, not even if you sold all her organs one by one!!'


Back then, she hadn't even looked to see how much money was on that card.


She had been thinking about how Silas Thornton had already spent three million just to bring her back.
