The Witch and Her Four Dangerous Alphas

Chapter 142: Chapter 142: The little Wolf

Selene sat in the forest, far away from the noise of the pack. The place was quiet, cool, and calm. She leaned back against a thick tree, staring at nothing, lost in her own thoughts.

Her mind was heavy. Too many questions, too many worries. After everything that had happened yesterday, she felt like she would break if she didn’t have a moment for herself. Out here, in the silence of the trees, her heart slowly began to ease.

Just as she closed her eyes, she heard a sound behind her. A soft rustle, like the wind shifting the leaves. Her body tensed. She pinched her palm to stay sharp and prepared herself in case someone from the pack had followed her.

But she didn’t think so, because this place was actually very isolated and hardly anyone would come here, but she knew the possibility was never slim.

Then, from the distance, a small black wolf stepped out of the shadows.

Selene’s breath caught, but in the next second, her body relaxed. She knew those eyes. Gentle, hopeful, and shining with happiness when they met her.

"Little wolf... is that you?" She whispered, her voice trembling with surprise.

The wolf tilted his head, as if he understood her, and then padded closer. Selene’s lips curved into a smile.

"You really came here," she said softly, reaching out. The little wolf rubbed his snout against her hand, and she laughed quietly, stroking his fur. "You silly thing... How did you even find me?"

He pressed closer, tail flicking, almost playful. Selene touched his side carefully, checking him, and found no sign of the wounds he once carried.

"You’re healed," she said with relief, her smile growing wider. "That makes me so happy."
