[Daniel’s P.O.V.]
The huge blow of not being able to transform into a wolf… The despair of being abandoned by my pack… All of it made me lose my mind as I fell into the river to wash my pain away. However, after drowning in my sorrows, my survival instinct forced me to struggle to survive.
I was the most outstanding youth in the pack, how did I not transform into a wolf? There must be something wrong with all of this!
I scrambled to adjust my position in the water and tried my best to float upwards. The moment I inhaled the air again, I felt alive.
My father was enraged because I could not turn into a wolf. If I went back and admitted my faults, they would forgive me, right?
I made up my mind. I did not even bother cleaning up my mess. I looked around for a direction and headed home.
I know that Barbara would not give up on me. Rogers and Charlie were my best friends, and they certainly would not give up on me.
By the time I got back to the pack, my clothes were dry, and I looked like the same high-spirited teenager I had been at my bar mitzvah.
Barbara must be freaking out about all of this. I had to go find her first.
Barbara’s room was on the second floor. I picked up three pebbles from the ground and threw them at the window. After three soft knocks, Barbara would come out to see me.
This was a tacit understanding that we had developed since we were young.
However, no matter how long I waited… Barbara did not come out. I reasoned that Barbara was not in the room, that was why she could not hear the sound coming from the window. So I threw three more stones. Thankfully, Barbara finally came out to see me.
I hugged Barbara excitedly and told her my fears. “I knew you wouldn’t abandon me.”
I was so emotional that I did not even notice Barbara’s stiffness. It was not until I saw her shaking hands, which kept pushing me away.
I had to let go, and Barbara’s teardrops burned my skin as she sobbed. “Daniel, I know it’s not your fault, but it is. I can’t accept that my partner is a werewolf who can’t turn into a wolf.”
“I won’t be like this forever.” To be honest, I did not even have much confidence in my own argument. I had tried countless times and failed every round. However, if I did not believe in myself, who would?

“Barbara, I really don’t know what went wrong, but I’m asking you to believe in me. I can transform into a wolf. Sooner or later, I’ll definitely be able to transform into a wolf.”
Barbara’s expression relaxed for a moment, which gave me a newfound sense of hope. However, what she said next shattered my tiny hope of confidence into pieces.
“What if you can’t transform into a wolf for the rest of your life? Should I wait for you forever?”
“It won’t be that long. Very soon, very very soon, I’ll be able to transform into a wolf.”
My optimistic answer seemed to be a quibble in Barbara’s ears. She questioned me while crying, “How long will very soon take? How long do I have to wait? You’re now a disgrace to the pack. How can I wait for you? Leave, please… Don’t make it hard for the both of us.”
“I’m not a disgrace. Barbara, you know that I’ve always been the most outstanding one in the pack. I was able to kill a python by myself when I was six years old.”
“After a werewolf transforms, anyone can tear apart a giant python apart. We can crush you to death with one swipe, you’re a piece of trash that can’t transform into a wolf.” Barbara’s father walked out as he spoke with disdain. He looked at me like I was a pile of trash.
“Before your coming of age ceremony, you were outstanding in all aspects. I admit that. Now, you’re just trash. I won’t let my daughter marry a trashbag like you. If you know what’s good for you, then get lost. Don’t force me into situations where I’d be the one kicking you out.”
“P-please, believe me, I can transform into a wolf. You watched me grow up, why can’t you believe me?”
“Why are you blaming others? You were the one that couldn’t transform, don’t bring us into this.”
A large group of members rushed out of the house with their weapons. Some of them held brooms, some held sticks, and some even raised their kitchen knives.
My left shoulder suddenly hurt. I could not believe that someone actually tried to cut me with their kitchen knife. I did not want to die yet, so I could only cover the wound on my shoulder and leave the pack.

[Barbara’s P.O.V.]
I never stopped crying ever since Daniel’s coming of age ceremony. Logically, I should despise Daniel, he was someone that could not transform into a wolf. However, emotionally, we were good friends who grew up together.
Daniel had always been especially good to me. He would always be the first to share any good food or join me in on the fun whenever it happened. Such deep-rooted feelings were not something that could be broken in an instant.
However, he was a werewolf who could not transform into a wolf. Such beings were shunned in the werewolf community. It was the alpha’s mercy not to kill him on the spot. This was the best outcome I could hope for him.
Just as my thoughts were flying around, a familiar voice came from the window.
