Bab 142: Every pup's clingy days

Jaden observed the new wolf for a while before deciding he was no threat to his mommy. He did look scary, but he was calm and kind.

«Mommy,» he said, pulling her sleeve and sliding on the chair to be closer to Lara.

He gripped her clothes, trying to climb on her lap. Since the chairs were too far, he got up on his seat and tried stepping on the other one.

«Jaden, this is dangerous!» Lara scolded him, circling him with her arms and moving him in her hug. «What in the world are you doing?»

«Mommy,» he repeated, finally reaching her bosom and leaning his head near her heart. He could listen to the beat and relax like that.

Lara caressed his head, chuckling nervously while turning to Manager Cooper.

She checked he wasn't bothered by the scene and leaned back on the seat to be more comfortable.

«They're so cute when they're little, aren't they?» the Manager chuckled. «My kids would be this clingy as well after the first few days of school.»
