Grandmother, overhearing the conversation, suddenly interjected, "Arnold, why don't you go with them? It's been a long time since the three of you spent time together."

Arnold didn't argue. He simply nodded in agreement, and that was enough to make Alex cheer in delight.

They drove to a scenic valley-a place they had visited long ago as a family.

The landscape was breathtaking, with golden fields stretching beneath a clear blue sky, and a river winding through the valley like a shimmering ribbon.

Sarah and Alex shifted into their wolf forms, their sleek fur catching the sunlight as they ran through the open land, chasing each other in playful circles.

Arnold, however, remained in his human form, standing on the edge of the valley and observing them in silence.

Arnold found himself watching, his expression unreadable.
