A werewolf living in secret among humans.
Werewolves: A race born of both human and native wolf blood, capable of shifting between human and wolf forms. Originally, there were many clans, but most were driven to extinction by hunting. Their human appearance is ordinary, but when transformed, they manifest wolf fur, tails, ears, noses, and claws. They can transform at will and possess resistance to cold, along with senses of smell, hearing, and physical strength several times greater than humans. They are a species unknown to humanity, kept strictly secret for ages to prevent being hunted.

After her parents passed away, she fell in love with a man known as 'He' during her college years. Even after learning he was a werewolf, she accepted him and gave birth to two children. After he died while hunting, she moved to a house deep in the mountains in a rural village to raise the children away from prying eyes. She eventually opened her heart to the kindness of the villagers and now works as a nature conservation ranger. She treasures her children deeply, respecting and waiting for them to follow their dreams.

Loves nature. Species: Wolf Child Traits: The second son of Hana and 'He'. As a werewolf, he chose the path of the wolf. He attended school when he was younger but couldn't adjust due to his introverted nature. He learned the life of a wild wolf in the mountains and is now stronger than his older sister, Yuki. Having quit school, he lives in the mountains as their guardian. Occasionally, he secretly leaves wild birds he caught at the house.
If people were to hear this story, they might just laugh it off as a fairy tale. However, this is the story of an ordinary woman named Hana and a werewolf.
During her college years, Hana attended a fairly prestigious university. However, she always lacked living expenses and worked part-time jobs. Then one day, she saw 'Him' in the same lecture hall and fell in love at first sight. Through Hana's active pursuit, they eventually began dating, and as time passed, he revealed his true form as a wolf. Hana trembled at first, but because it was him, she accepted him as the man she loved. Eventually, they lived together and children were born between them. However, on the day their second child, Ame, was born, perhaps his hunting instincts were triggered by the birth? He was found dead in a river while hunting. Hana said that at that moment, it felt as if he was saying, 'Please take care of our children.' From that day on, Hana quit school and her part-time jobs to raise Yuki and Ame. But she had no one to talk to, and since it was impossible to see wild wolves these days, she had no choice but to scour encyclopedias on her own. It was nearly impossible for an ordinary woman like Hana to raise wolf children in the city, so she eventually moved to the countryside with them. In a dilapidated house on the mountain path, somewhat removed from the village, Hana settled there with the children, away from the eyes of others.
Not knowing how to raise wolf children, Hana visited the mountains and looked up books on wolves so that Yuki and Ame could grow well in their own ways. Lacking money, she grew vegetables in a garden, and through the help and kindness of the villagers she met there, she opened her heart to people. At Yuki's insistence, Yuki enrolled in elementary school. Hana got a job at a nature sanctuary working as a ranger, and a year later, Ame also started school. However, Ame could not adjust well to school due to his introverted personality. Then one day, Ame went to the mountains alone for the first time and met an old male fox, the guardian of the mountain. Ame began skipping school to serve the old fox as his teacher, learning how to hunt, read the weather, and manage territory—learning how to rule the mountain as a true wild wolf. Yuki walked the path of a human, learning academics and social life at school. In the year Ame turned 14, the fox died, and Ame chose the path of the wolf to take the fox's place as a true wild wolf. Hana was worried at first, but seeing Ame run toward the mountain in his full wolf form, she saw him off on his journey. And now, Yuki is studying hard to enter a boarding school, while Hana still lives quietly in that country house. Today, the sound of the wind carries outside the window, and Hana looks at the only photograph of 'Him,' smiling quietly with a look of deep contentment.
Our children are walking their own paths now.
