Penny fretfully looked out the fence, hoping that Reina would come home from her out-of-town assignment. Penny felt a little awkward because for almost two months Reina was often assigned out of town since Reina told me she was going to Wind-Corp headquarters. Penny also had trouble contacting Reina because since going on duty, the girl's phone could not be reached.
"He hasn't come yet?"
Penny jumped to hear the voice of the man next to her. His eyes glared in annoyance. He always comes and goes as he pleases.
"Why are you here?! I told you to keep the garden in the greenhouse. Lately a lot of people have been stealing my plants there" Penny said as she sat on the porch chair
"I can't be away from you." The man chuckled.
Penny just rolled her eyeballs. The man sat on the porch and looked outside the fence
"I can only keep watch outside. You know, I'm allergic to flower powder..It can make me breathless" said the man
Penny scoffed at "Excuse me."
The two went back into silence as if enjoying the twilight sun that was about to sink. Both of them seem to have no dispute between them
"Penny, can I ask you something?"
"Can't!" penny replied quickly. The man was upset
"I just want to know what you said about the power that came off at the flower shop one week ago."
Penny glanced at the man next to her. "I was just raving. Now go."
The man leaned his body against the porch seat "Let me accompany you waiting for Reina. I promise I won't talk to him."
Penny felt angry. The woman was eager to throw a flower pot at the man, but Penny could still use her wits, it was a pity that her beautiful flower pot if it had to break hit the annoying guy next to her
"Aunt Penny.."
Penny looked towards the voice. Looks like Kirk is waving from the fence. Penny smiled at Kirk
"Hi, just got Kirk home?" Greet Penny pleasantries
"Yes, it just so happens that today there is no overtime" Kirk replied as he watched the man sitting with Penny
The man next to Penny squinted his eyes at Kirk. The two eyes clashed, until Penny cleared her throat. Kirk was the first to stop his eye contact
"Well aunt Penny, I'll go home first" Kirk said as he waved at Penny. Penny nodded back at Kirk's wishes
"He lives next door?" ask the man while looking at Kirk who entered his house
"Kirk? Yeah, we've been neighbors since Reina was a kid. Good boy." said Penny
The man sneered "My daughter should get a much better man than her."
"Better than you?" penny's Syndicate
The man sighed "You better keep him away from Reina."
"Why?"
The man was silent not retaliating. Penny looked back at the streets. The atmosphere looks lonely, the sun will soon set perfectly
"Alexander Ulrich's.."
The man next to Penny turned his head when Penny mentioned Alex's name. Penny looked back at the man
"You once asked me if I knew Alexander Ulrich. He is the boss Reina works for."
The man laughed at Penny's "You just investigated? I told you a few weeks ago."
Penny shook her head "Initially I didn't bother with that name. However, yesterday Reina was delirious to mention the name Alex. Then I remember you mentioning the name Alexander Ulrich. Could they be the same person?"
"If tonight hasn't come back, tomorrow I'll go to Reina's place of work.." Penny's hiss sounded in the man's ear
"I will accompany you." said the man
Both are silent again. Street lights start to automatically light up highlighting the increasingly quiet streets

"So young Master Ulrich is still on an official trip with his staff?" penny asked a receptionist who was in charge of welcoming Wind-Corp guests
"Mistress bethel. Maybe in a few days he'll be back." Answer the receptionist with a smile that always expands
"Mm do you recognize all of the staff who are attending? I mean, I asked my son who works at the Wind-Corp branch of Kingston. They say my son also took a service trip with the people at the headquarters" Penny said a little stiffly. Penny has no experience with office
"Of course we recognize all the central staff who are involved, but if the staff from the branch, we don't memorize anyone. What's name?" ask the beautiful receptionist
"Sterling. Reina Sterling."
That beautiful receptionist smile instantly disappeared, changing with a shocked face. His eyes suddenly flashed blue
Just a second, then the receptionist could control himself and smile back
"Miss Sterling is also in the business troupe, ma'am. In a few days they'll be back."
The receptionist's face only changed for a second, then it was back to normal. But that second change was still caught in Penny's net so this woman realized something
"Is there anything else I can help you with, ma'am?" The receptionist asked Penny's daydream
"Oh, uh nothing. Okay, I'll excuse you." Penny quickly turned around and stepped out. The beautiful receptionist looked at Penny's back until it was lost at the exit
Penny clasped her hands. The woman turned to the Wind-Corp building
"Avahale.." whispered Penny as she slowly swept her hand over her nose
Instantly the woman gasped. It's been a long time, but Penny never forgot this smell. The smell of the Werewolf!
Penny's eyes were round. This entire office contains mostly werewolves who blend in the human world
Suddenly Penny realized something, as Reina was so enthusiastic about reading about the Werewolf legend. It happened the day after Reina came home late because there was business at the headquarters
"Damn, I'm a big help!" Penny's frown while patting his head
Penny recalled a few years ago when she had just arrived in the human world, Penny learned that some werewolves were also in the human world for fun, look for a partner to play around and channel passion as mating season comes along, before they find their mate
For a long time Penny closed her kiss and gave Reina a 'barrier fence' because they, the Werewolves, could also smell the breath of creatures from different clans
The woman concluded, the worst possibility of Reina falling for Alexander Ulrich who seemed to be a Werewolf.
"Reina can't fall in love, she just belongs to 'that guy'." Penny's bathin
Penny immediately covered her nose with a handkerchief and continued walking with a raging mind. At any rate, he must find Reina and save Reina from the Werewolves who are just playing games with her. Unknowingly, Penny was already in the parking lot where the man was waiting for her
"Hey, Penny. You okay?" ask the man
Penny nodded "Oh, t-no. I'm.."
Penny's eyes rounded as she looked at the man in front of her and realized something
"Penny, are you okay?" the man was holding Penny's cheek. Unknowingly Penny lowered her handkerchief
"Joey Falzko.. You're a Werewolf?" whispered Penny
