Chapter 37: Chapter 37

I can't imagine these courageous words coming from my five-year-old son, and I was even more surprised that he recognized Athan Buffay as one of his kind. I never even told Mike that he was actually a werewolf. But he faced an adult Alpha with a strong aura without fear and asked him which of the two was stronger.

Athan Buffay's smile deepened, he looked at me, then back at Mike and replied, "Maybe you should listen to your mommy tell you about your background before I answer that question."

"I'm a wolf, right?" Mike's childish voice blocked what I was about to say.

"My baby..." I took his hand, and I felt my palms keep sweating from shock "How did you know? How did you find out?"

"You can understand a wolf howl, can't you Mike?" Athan didn't seem shocked, but his face was full of sighs, "I didn't expect you to be like me..."

I have been completely stunned. Could it be that there are werewolves that can communicate with wolves? I was about to ask more, but Athan Buffay stopped me with a gesture: "It's not safe here, let's take Mike back to the apartment first, and we'll talk about the rest later." I almost forgot that there are people looking for me and Athan outside now. I immediately started the car and drove back to the apartment.

Mike was so exhausted by the day's events that he fell asleep almost as soon as he entered my room. I looked at his sleeping face like an angel, touched his cheek lightly, and then exited the room.

"Kathrine, you don't have to worry too much," Athan Buffay said to me as he sat in the living room waiting for me, and when I was ready, he said to me, "Mike didn't have his wolf, he just awakened werewolf hearing. An innate ability that very few werewolves carry."

Afterwards, Athan Buffay explained to me in detail the reasons for all this.

Simply put, every werewolf is a werewolf because we all carry a certain percentage of wolf blood. And the purer the wolf bloodline in the body, the stronger the werewolf, and the greater the probability of having a wolf as an adult. "Werewolf Hearing" is a more special ability than "Having a Wolf", which almost only appeared in the childhood of the purest male werewolf. Because of this, they are also easily influenced by wolves, showing a more bloodthirsty and cruel side than ordinary werewolves.

"You just said Mike was the same as you, did you also awaken this ability when you were young?" I asked.

Athan Buffay nodded, "That's right, so we have to do some necessary training for Mike from now on to help him master this ability. His pupils are discolored because he is more influenced by wolf blood," Athan Buffay nodded. Buffay said, his face turned seriously , "You have to be prepared, Mike is likely to have his own wolf like me at a young age."

When it was about dinner time, I woke Mike up. He rubbed his eyes and stretched out his hand to hug me, no different from usual. But when I think back to what Athan Buffay said, I can't help but think about that man - Mike and Lily's biological father, I remember him as an Alpha, and I didn't expect his blood to be so pure. It's just that now we are not living in a werewolf pack, but in a human society. I really don't know if this is a good thing for Mike.

"Mike, when did you first hear wolf howl?" Athan Buffay asked during dinner.

"I was sleeping one night and saw a wolf in my dream. He told me I was a wolf too," Mike said. "When I woke up, my eyes were golden. I was afraid of scaring Lily. , so I changed the eye color back."

“You can control the color of your eyes? ? "What happened today is beyond my common sense. I looked at Athan Buffay, but he looked at Mike with interest and asked: "So you are saying that you changed your pupil color to scare the boy named Timmy on purpose? "

Mike pouted, but he didn't deny it.

No wonder Mike refused to apologize in the hospital, no wonder the kid called him a monster... I took Mike's hand and told him seriously: "Mike, no matter in front of anyone in the future, you can't change the color of your pupils to scare others. do you understand?"

"Why!" Mike looked at me with a look of incomprehension: "But I'm better than them, shouldn't they be afraid of us?" I suddenly became anxious, how could he have such an idea? Could it be the wolf influence that Athan Buffay said?

"Because with great power comes great responsibility," Athan Buffay's deep voice sounded, the dark green color in his pupils started fading, and replaced by a hint of golden color.

In an instant, Athan Buffay unleashed his aura, The air in the whole room seemed to freeze.

He moved his upper body closer toward Mike – who was already stunned by such great aura, the gold in Athan Buffay’s eyes dazzled,

"You said you wanted to protect your family," he said, "then you need to control your power, that's your first lesson."

Mike's little face was full of surprise, he nodded solemnly, it was his surrender to absolute power.
