Gu Ning stared at the massive wolf's head before her and swallowed.
This black wolf had helped them drive away the other wolf pack, so he must be a member of Alex's pack.
Seeing it draw near and nuzzle against her affectionately, Gu Ning reached out a trembling hand to pet it.
She repeatedly reassured herself, 'He's friendly, he's friendly...'
But he was just too big. Standing up, he was a whole head taller than Seth. Combined with his majestic and powerful aura, he was genuinely terrifying to look at.
Sensing her fear, the black wolf stuck out his tongue and gave her cold hand a reassuring lick.
The black wolf's gentle, almost cautious, movements allowed Gu Ning's frayed nerves to finally relax.
The warm, soft, and thick texture of his tongue stirred a familiar feeling within her. A thought struck Gu Ning, and she met the black wolf's clear, cold eyes.
'Those eyes... I feel like I've seen them somewhere before...'
In a flash of inspiration, it hit her. 'This is... Alex?'
