章節 29: Chapter twenty eight

(Matthew's POV)

Tiny feet step on my nuzzle causing me to sneeze.

My eyes slowly open as it adjusts to the sunlight spilling in through the cave entrance.

I stand on my paws and stretch with a quiet yawn.

I take my clothes in between my teeth and make my way out of the cave.

The morning breeze soothes my fur, literally and figuratively, as I start to jog through the forest, slowly picking up speed.

Once the edge of the forest comes into view, I stop and transform back to my human form. I put on my clothes from last night and make my way out of the forest with a false sense of confidence.

I strutted through the pack with firm strides, nodding at the pack members who were able to snap out of their surprise to greet me.

I can feel the stares and glares thrown my way but I ignore them, lest I fold in on myself and look weak.
