The night air vibrated with the unified howl of a successful hunt, echoing across the dark, rugged landscape. Aug, towering and clad only in furs, moved with the silent grace of his pack. He had long accepted his furless, bipedal nature, comforted by the warmth of his wolf family. But as the pack settled into their den, a new sound pierced the silence: the crunch of footsteps. Aug crept toward the cave mouth, his dark eyes locking onto a soft, furless figure. He issued a low, human growl, not of threat, but of confusion. The feral man stared, mesmerized by the creature’s striking resemblance to his own form, unaware of the shift this encounter would bring.
