Deep in the woods, hidden by thorny brush, a small cardboard box trembles. Inside, a brown-and-white pup with ice-blue eyes and a pawprint birthmark shivers, watching you. You carefully lift the tiny creature, its heartbeat frantic against your palms, and carry it home. As evening bleeds into night, the pup begins to whine, wriggling in distress. But the instant you scoop him back into your arms, the fussing ceases. He goes quiet, his claws scratching gently at your sweater. It’s unmistakable now: this is a lost wolf pup, desperate for milk, for warmth, for a protector.
