Aubree Groove finally realized why this place was referred to as the forbidden land. With its ferocious nature, resilient to harsh cold, anyone who faces a snow wolf like this becomes nothing but prey.
Just like that, one woman and one wolf stand off in silence, neither makes the first move.
Eventually, Aubree sheaths her dagger, choosing to take a gamble.
In silence, she approaches the snow wolf. Those emotionless deep-blue eyes watch her calmly, as the creature opens its mouth, revealing fangs menacing in appearance. An ordinary person might be petrified on the spot.
Showing neither surprise nor fear, as she walks past, the snow wolf exhales warm breath, sending shivers down her bare hand due to the abrupt switch between hot and cold.
The next moment, the snow wolf follows Aubree's steps, moving deeper into Snow Cedar Forest together.
