Outcast Taeui.

- Jeong Taeui’s pov

“Ugh..” I groan, smelling the

stench of blood.🩸

“Seriously, this is the main factor on why I hate being a wolf.” I scratch the back of my neck in frustration and cover my nose.

Well anyway, I need to carry this back to my pack. I carry the corpse of the deer on my back and began running back.

“I’m back!” I shout cheerfully as I open the door to our home.

“Oppa!””Hyung!” A small group of 8 kids scurry to the arms of Jeong Taeui.

JEONG TAEUI

An outcast among his peers. He couldn’t fully turn into a werewolf, and even had difficulty just trying to turn one of his arms or legs.

Infamous for this inability, he was given the nickname, “Wolf” as inferior to werewolves.

“Oppa! Oppa! Is that food on your back?” A petite young girl with gold pigtails asks, wagging her tail in excitement.

I smile, “It sure is! Let’s all have deer meat tonight!”

All kids cheer in joy, except for one.

“Ugh! Deer, again? Seriously-.! I’m tired of eating the same livestock over and over again..!” One boy with hair as black as charcoal exclaims, his eyebrows furrowed.

“………” The whole room went silent. The rest of the kids stare at the boy with mixed feelings.

“Oh..I- uhm..” The boy stammers and stumbles, losing his balance,

but before tripping onto the floor,

“Hup! Careful there, Jin.”

I quickly catch Hyujin, the boy with hair as black as charcoal.

“Ah..Hyung..I’m sorry, I’m sorry!” Hyujin starts bawling his eyes out, and tears began to blur his sight.

Surprised, I quickly wipe his tears away, “It’s okay Jin! Haha, don’t cry. No one here has ill towards you.”

Hyujin glances at the rest of the kids.

The kids all hurriedly run towards him, “Why are you crying!?” “Are you okay?” “Don’t be sad!” They all give out their concern towards Hyujin.

“See? I told you.” I chuckle softly.

I clap my hands three times, “Alright kids! It’s dinnertime! And make sure after dinner, you all go to bed!”

“Yes Hyung!”

“ Yes Oppa!”

I’m glad everything’s going well.

AT THE DINING TABLE

I should probably hunt other livestock starting from now on, they are all probably

*tired from the same food these past few weeks. Though, it’ll be risky since deer is the only livestock close to our home, to get other livestock…It’ll definitely be a long journey, close to other territories. Like humans, other werewolves, and…and..! *cough* vampires.*

*****

“Goodnight Hyung!”

“Night night, Oppa!”

The kids all say as they head upstairs to go to bed.

I smile, replying with, “Night, kids!”

…..”Phew! Well, I guess I’ll get going now.”

I lock all the doors except for the back door and run off to the wilderness.

*I’ll catch some livestock now since if I wait tomorrow, it’ll probably be bustling with other species. I need to go when every other species is asleep. Well.. Except for vampires. But it’s fine! I won’t go close to their territory anyway.*

I continue running, far from my home.
